PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES AT THE AGM

In view of the ongoing Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) epidemic, the Company will implement the following preventive measures at the AGM to protect attending Shareholders, staff and other stakeholders from the risk of infection:

  1. Compulsory body temperature checks will be conducted on every attendee at the entrance of the AGM venue. Any person with a body temperature of over 37.4 degrees Celsius may be denied entry into the AGM venue or be required to leave the AGM venue.
  2. All attendees may be asked whether (a) he/she travels outside of Hong Kong within the 14-day period immediately before the AGM; and (b) he/she is subject to any Hong Kong Government prescribed quarantine. Anyone who responds positively to any of these questions may be denied entry into the meeting venue or be required to leave the meeting venue.
  3. The Company encourages attendees to wear surgical face masks inside the AGM venue at all times, and to maintain a safe distance between seats.
  4. No refreshments will be served and there will be no corporate gifts.

To the extent permitted under law, the Company reserves the right to deny entry into the AGM venue or require any person to leave the AGM venue in order to ensure the safety of the attendees at the AGM.

APPENDIX II EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE BUY-BACK MANDATE

The information sets out below constitutes an explanatory statement for the purpose of Rule 10.06 of the Listing Rules:

  1. Share Capital

Exercise in full of the Buy-back Mandate (on the basis of 6,448,152,160 Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date), would result in up to 644,815,216 Shares being bought-back by the Company during the Relevant Period (as defined in Resolution No. 6), assuming no Shares are issued or bought-back between the Latest Practicable Date and the date of AGM.

  1. Reasons for Buy-backs

The Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders to have a general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Directors to repurchase Shares. Such buy-backs may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement in the value of the Shares and/or earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such buy-backs will benefit the Company and the Shareholders.

  1. Funding of Buy-backs

In buying-back Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with the laws of Bermuda and the Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws of the Company. Such funds may include profits available for distribution and the proceeds of a fresh issue of Shares made for the purpose of the buy-backs.

An exercise of the Buy-Back Mandate in full may have a material adverse impact on the working capital and gearing position of the Company compared with those as at 31 March 2020, being the latest published audited consolidated accounts. The Directors do not, however, intend to exercise the Buy-back Mandate to such an extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements or the gearing level of the Company which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

APPENDIX II EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE BUY-BACK MANDATE

(5) The Takeovers Code

If as a result of a buy-back of Shares by the Company, a shareholder 's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purpose of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a shareholder, or a group of shareholders acting in concert, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code as a result of a buy-back of Shares by the Company.

In the event that any exercise of the Buy-back Mandate would, to the knowledge of the Directors, have a consequence under the Takeovers Code, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Buy-back Mandate to such an extent as would trigger a mandatory offer obligation for any shareholder or group of shareholders.

- 11 -

APPENDIX II EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE BUY-BACK MANDATE

  1. Miscellaneous

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their close associates currently intends to sell any Shares to the Company or its subsidiaries under the Buy-back Mandate if such Buy-back Mandate is approved by Shareholders.

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange to exercise the Company's power to make purchases pursuant to the Buy-back Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and the laws of Bermuda.

No core connected persons have notified the Company that they have a present intention to sell Shares to the Company, or have undertaken not to do so, in the event that the Buy-back Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

Assuming that the Buy-back Mandate is exercised in full, the share capital of the Company in issue will be reduced to 5,803,336,944 Shares (on the basis of 6,448,152,160 Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date and assuming that no further Shares are issued or bought-back between the Latest Practicable Date and the date of the AGM). The Company will not buy-back Shares which would result in the amount of Shares held by the public being reduced to less than the prescribed minimum percentage of 25%.

The Company has not bought-back Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) during the six months prior to the Latest Practicable Date.
