ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING,

RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS

AND

GENERAL MANDATES TO BUY BACK SHARES AND

TO ISSUE NEW SHARES

INTRODUCTION

The annual general meeting of Tomson Group Limited (the "Company") will be held at Monaco Room, Basement 1, Regal Hongkong Hotel, 88 Yee Wo Street, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong on Thursday, 10th June, 2021 at 11:00 a.m. (the "2021 Annual General Meeting"). This circular is issued for the purposes of providing you with information relating to the following resolutions to be proposed at the 2021 Annual General Meeting and giving you the notice of the meeting:

  1. to re-elect retiring Directors of the Company; and

1

  1. to grant general mandates to the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") to buy back and to issue shares of HK$0.50 each in the capital of the Company (the "Share(s)") up to a maximum of 10 per cent and 20 per cent of the aggregate number of issued Shares as at the date of the 2021 Annual General Meeting respectively and to extend the said issue mandate by adding the number of those Shares that may be bought back under the said buy-back mandate.

RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS

Pursuant to Article 116 of the Articles of Association of the Company (the "Articles"), every Director of the Company shall be subject to retirement by rotation at least once every three years. Madam Hsu Feng, Mr Albert Tong and Mr Lee Chan Fai, who were re-elected as Directors at the annual general meeting of the Company held in 2018, shall therefore retire by rotation at the 2021 Annual General Meeting and, being eligible, offer themselves for re-election.

After considering the composition of the Board and the board diversity policy adopted by the Board, ordinary resolutions will therefore be proposed at the 2021 Annual General Meeting to re-elect Madam Hsu, Mr Tong and Mr Lee as Directors of the Company and the re-election of the retiring Directors of the Company will be individually and separately voted on by the shareholders of the Company. Biographical details of the retiring Directors are set out in Appendix I to this circular and their attendance records at the meetings of the Company since their last election are disclosed in the Corporate Governance Report in the Annual Reports for 2018, 2019 and 2020 of the Company.

Recommendation of the Board with respect to the Independent Non-Executive Director subject to re-election at the 2021 Annual General Meeting

Mr Lee Chan Fai has been serving on the Board as an independent non-executive Director for more than fifteen years since his appointment on 15th December, 2005. Since Mr Lee joined the Board, he has neither taken up any executive responsibilities in the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively the "Group") nor has he been involved in the day-to-day business transactions and operations of the Group. In addition, having made all necessary and reasonable enquiries, the Board is satisfied that Mr Lee has no financial, business or family relationships with any other Directors, senior management or substantial or controlling shareholders of the Company. The Board has also assessed and reviewed the written confirmation of independence of Mr Lee based on the independence criteria as set out in Rule 3.13 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities (the "Listing Rules") on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Stock Exchange") and is satisfied that Mr Lee remains independent.

Having considered the selection criteria of the Company, including but not limited to gender, age, cultural and educational background, professional experience and qualifications, skills, knowledge and length of service, and also based on the board diversity policy adopted by the Board, the Board considers that Mr Lee can contribute to the diversity of the Board, in particular, with his professional experience in the field of architecture. The Board had also reviewed the performance of Mr Lee and is of the view that he has made valuable contributions to the Company, demonstrated his ability to provide independent, balanced and objective view to the Company's affairs, brought to the Board his own perspective, skills and experience as well as exercised judgment in the best interests of the Company when discharging his duties as an independent non-executive Director of the Company. The Board therefore recommends Mr Lee for re-election as an independent non-executive Director at the 2021 Annual General Meeting.

2

GENERAL MANDATES

At the last annual general meeting of the Company held on 4th June, 2020, general mandates were granted to the Board to (i) buy back the issued Shares; and (ii) allot, issue and otherwise deal with additional Shares. These general mandates will expire at the conclusion of the 2021 Annual General Meeting or on revocation or variation of the approval for granting such mandates by an ordinary resolution of the shareholders of the Company, whichever is earlier.

The Board therefore proposes to seek your approval of three ordinary resolutions at the 2021 Annual General Meeting to grant it general mandates:

  1. to buy back on the Stock Exchange the issued Shares up to a maximum of 10 per cent of the aggregate number of issued Shares as at the date of the 2021 Annual General Meeting (the "Share Buy-back Proposal");
  2. to allot, issue and deal with additional Shares up to a maximum of 20 per cent of the aggregate number of issued Shares as at the date of the 2021 Annual General Meeting (the "Share Issue Mandate"); and
  3. to extend the Share Issue Mandate by adding the number of those Shares that may be bought back under the Share Buy-back Proposal (the "Extension of Share Issue Mandate").

An explanatory statement in connection with the aforesaid general mandates is set out in Appendix II to this circular.

ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

The notice convening the 2021 Annual General Meeting is set out on pages 12 to 15 of this circular.

Pursuant to Rule 13.39(4) of the Listing Rules and Article 80 of the Articles, all resolutions to be put to the vote at the 2021 Annual General Meeting shall be decided by way of a poll save for resolutions related purely to procedural or administrative matters which may be voted on by a show of hands at the discretion of the chairman of the meeting. An announcement on the poll vote results will be made by the Company after the 2021 Annual General Meeting.

A form of proxy for use at the 2021 Annual General Meeting and the Annual Report for 2020 of the Company are being sent to the shareholders of the Company together with this circular. Whether or not you are able to attend the 2021 Annual General Meeting, please complete the accompanying form of proxy in accordance with the instructions printed thereon and return the same to the office of the Company in Hong Kong at Rooms 1507-12, 15th Floor, Wing On Centre, 111 Connaught Road Central, Hong Kong not later than 11:00 a.m. on Wednesday, 9th June, 2021 (or not less than 24 hours before the time appointed for holding any adjournment thereof). Completion and delivery of the form of proxy will not preclude you from attending and voting at the 2021 Annual General Meeting or any adjournment thereof in person, if you so wish.

CLOSURE OF REGISTER OF MEMBERS

The register of members of the Company will be closed from Monday, 7th June, 2021 to Thursday, 10th June, 2021, both days inclusive, during which period no transfer of Shares will be effected.

RECOMMENDATION

The Board considers that the re-election of the retiring Directors of the Company, the Share Buy-back Proposal, the Share Issue Mandate and the Extension of Share Issue Mandate are all in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders and accordingly recommends all shareholders of the Company to vote in favour of the relevant resolutions to be proposed at the 2021 Annual General Meeting.

Yours faithfully

For and on behalf of the Board of

TOMSON GROUP LIMITED

APPENDIX I

INFORMATION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS

Save for the aforesaid disclosure, as at the Latest Practicable Date, all the aforesaid retiring Directors of the Company neither held any directorship in public companies the securities of which were listed on any securities market in Hong Kong or overseas over the last three years nor had any relationship with any Directors, senior management or substantial or controlling shareholders of the Company.

All the aforesaid retiring Directors of the Company have not been appointed for any specific term of office but are subject to retirement by rotation at least once every three years and eligible for re-election at the annual general meetings of the Company pursuant to the Articles.

Save as disclosed herein, there is neither other information to be disclosed pursuant to the requirements of Rule 13.51(2) of the Listing Rules nor is there other matter that needs to be brought to the attention of the shareholders of the Company.

7

APPENDIX II EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR GENERAL MANDATES

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were 1,971,025,125 Shares in issue, which were fully paid.

SHARE BUY-BACK PROPOSAL

In accordance with the Listing Rules, this section serves as an explanatory statement to provide you with all the information reasonably necessary to enable you to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the Share Buy-back Proposal.

  1. Share Buy-back Mandate

Subject to the passing of the Share Buy-back Proposal and on the assumption that no Shares will be issued or bought back after the Latest Practicable Date and up to the date of the 2021 Annual General Meeting, and providing that the Company maintains sufficient public float pursuant to the Listing Rules, the Company will be allowed under a general mandate to buy back a maximum of 197,102,512 fully paid-up Shares, representing not more than 10 per cent of the aggregate number of issued Shares as at the date of the 2021 Annual General Meeting, during the period up to the conclusion of the next following annual general meeting of the Company, or the expiration of the period within which the next following annual general meeting of the Company is required by law to be held, or the revocation or variation of the approval granted under the Share Buy-back Proposal by the shareholders of the Company, whichever is the earliest.

The Board believes that the Share Buy-back Proposal is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. There have been occasions when the Shares were trading at a substantial discount to their underlying net asset value. Buy-backs of the Shares may enhance the Company's net asset value per Share and earnings per Share. In these circumstances, the ability of the Company to buy back the Shares can be beneficial to those shareholders who retain their investment in the Company since their possible percentage interest in the assets of the Company would increase in proportion to the number of the Shares bought back by the Company.

Furthermore, the Board's exercise of the mandate granted under the Share Buy-back Proposal would lead to an increased volume of trading in the Shares on the Stock Exchange. The Board is seeking a general mandate to buy back the Shares to give the Company the flexibility to do so if and when appropriate.

If the mandate granted under the Share Buy-back Proposal is exercised in full, the Board expects there may not be a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company, as compared with the position disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31st December, 2020, as a result of buy-backs of the Shares. However, no buy-back would be made in circumstances that would have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company unless the Board considers that such buy-backs would be in the best interests of the Company and the Company would not make any buy-back that would lead to non-compliance with the minimum public float requirement under the Listing Rules.

The Board has undertaken to the Stock Exchange to exercise the powers of the Company to make buy-backs pursuant to the Share Buy-back Proposal in accordance with the Listing Rules and all applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

8

APPENDIX II EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR GENERAL MANDATES

  1. Funding of Buy-backs

In buying back the Shares, the Company will only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with its Memorandum and Articles of Association and the Companies Law of the Cayman Islands which provide that the Shares may be bought back out of the profits and/or share premium account of the Company and/or out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of the Shares made for this purpose and/or even out of the capital paid up on the Shares bought back. The Board proposes to buy back the Shares out of the retained earnings and/or share premium account of the Company.

  1. Intention and Undertaking of Connected Parties

None of the Directors of the Company nor, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their close associates presently intend to sell the Shares to the Company under the Share Buy-back Proposal in the event that the Share Buy-back Proposal is approved by the shareholders of the Company.

The Company has not been notified by any core connected persons (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company that they have a present intention to sell any Shares to the Company, or have undertaken not to do so in the event that the Share Buy-back Proposal is approved by the shareholders of the Company.

  1. Effect of Takeovers Code

If as a result of a buy-back of the Shares, a shareholder's proportionate interest in the voting capital of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purpose of the Hong Kong Code on Takeovers and Mergers (the "Takeovers Code").

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Madam Hsu Feng together with her sons, namely Mr Albert Tong and Mr Tong Chi Kar Charles, and companies controlled by her (collectively "Madam Hsu and associates") were interested in the Shares representing approximately 74.67% of the aggregate number of issued Shares. On the assumption that the number of Shares in issue remains unchanged from the Latest Practicable Date up to the date of the 2021 Annual General Meeting and no Shares will be issued during the period when the mandate to be granted under the Share Buy-back Proposal remains in force, and in the event that the Board exercises in full the power to buy back the Shares pursuant to the mandate to be granted under the Share Buy-back Proposal, the shareholdings held by Madam Hsu and associates will be increased to approximately 82.97% of the then aggregate number of issued Shares and such an increase will not give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code. However, the Company will not repurchase any Shares to such an extent which will result in the number of Shares held by the public being reduced to less than 25% of the total number of issued Shares. The Directors of the Company are not aware of any other consequences which would arise under the Takeovers Code as a result of any buy-backs pursuant to the mandate to be granted under the Share Buy-back Proposal.

Should the Share Issue Mandate be granted at the 2021 Annual General Meeting and on the assumption that no Shares will be issued or bought back after the Latest Practicable Date and up to the date of the meeting, the Board will be empowered to issue a maximum of 394,205,025 new Shares, otherwise than pursuant to (i) a rights issue; or (ii) an exercise of rights of subscription or conversion under the terms of any option, warrant or other securities issued by the Company; or (iii) an exercise of subscription rights under any share option schemes of the Company; or (iv) any scrip dividend or similar arrangements for the allotment of Shares in lieu of the whole or part of a dividend on Shares in accordance with the Articles, during the period up to the conclusion of the next following annual general meeting of the Company unless the mandate is otherwise revoked or varied by an ordinary resolution of the shareholders of the Company.

APPENDIX II EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR GENERAL MANDATES

In addition, subject to the passing at the 2021 Annual General Meeting of the proposed resolutions regarding the Share Buy-back Proposal and the Extension of Share Issue Mandate, the aforesaid limit of the Share Issue Mandate will be extended to include the number of the Shares that may be bought back under the Share Buy-back Proposal.

The Board currently has no immediate plans to issue any new Shares under the Share Issue Mandate.
