CANCELLATION OF THE PRIOR AGREEMENT, THE OPTION DEED AND THE PM AGREEMENT

Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 23 July 2020 in relation to (i) the disposal by the Vendor of the entire issued share capital of the Property Company to the Prior Purchaser pursuant to the Prior Agreement; (ii) the call and the put options granted under the Option Deed over the shares of the Prior Purchaser; and

  1. the PM Agreement relating to the management of the development project on the Property held by the Property Company. The Vendor is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and held all the issued shares of the Property Company (i.e. the Sale Shares) at the time of the signing of the Prior Agreement. The principal asset of the Property Company is the Property, being the piece of land parcel situated at Kai Tak Area 4B Site 4.

- 1 -

Although completion of the disposal took place on 17 July 2020, in light of the better terms offered under the Agreement and the Profit Sharing Agreement, the parties to the Prior Agreement agreed to cancel and rescind the Prior Agreement by entering into a deed on 27 July 2020 with the payment of a sum of approximately HK$2,872 million by the Vendor to the Prior Purchaser, which included the return of the cash payment paid by the Prior Purchaser under the Prior Agreement and the related costs and expenses for the cancellation. Simultaneously, the Group also entered into termination deeds with the relevant parties to terminate the Option Deed and the PM Agreement.

THE AGREEMENT AND THE PROFIT SHARING AGREEMENT

On 27 July 2020, the Group also entered into the following agreements with, among others, the Purchaser:

  1. the Agreement entered into among the Vendor, the Purchaser, the Company (as the Vendor's guarantor) and Mr. Pan (as the Vendor's guarantor) in relation to the disposal of all the issued shares of the Property Company by the Vendor to the Purchaser for a consideration of approximately HK$3,477 million. Completion took place on 27 July 2020 upon signing of the Agreement. The Purchaser is a third party independent of the Prior Purchaser; and
  2. the Profit Sharing Agreement entered into among the Vendor, the Purchaser and the Property Company in relation to the profit sharing arrangement for the future sale of the Units and Car Parks to be developed at the Property.

LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

As the highest applicable percentage ratios (as defined in Rule 14.07 of the Listing Rules) in respect of the Disposal exceeds 25% but all applicable percentage ratios are less than 75%, the Disposal constitutes a major transaction of the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules and is subject to the reporting, announcement, circular and Shareholders' approval requirements.

Mr. Pan, an executive Director and the Chairman of the Board, as well as the controlling shareholder of the Company, is one of the Vendor's guarantors to guarantee the due and punctual performance of the obligations of the Vendor under the Agreement. Since the aforesaid guarantee is provided on normal commercial terms or better to the Group and not secured by any assets of the Group, the guarantee provided by Mr. Pan to the Group constitutes a fully-exempt connected transaction under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

- 2 -

To the best of the Directors' knowledge, information and belief having made all reasonable enquiries, no Shareholder has a material interest in the Disposal and accordingly no Shareholder is required to abstain from voting if the Company were to convene a general meeting for approving the resolution in respect of the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder. As at the date of this announcement, Mr. Pan personally held 239,063,000 Shares and his Controlled Companies, namely Clear Jade International Limited, Goldin Equities Limited and Goldin Global Holdings Limited, held 44,316,000 Shares, 187,213,998 Shares and 4,483,291,636 Shares respectively. The written approval from Mr. Pan and his Controlled Companies (being a closely allied group of Shareholders holding 4,953,884,634 Shares in aggregate (representing approximately 70.86% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of this announcement)) has been obtained in respect of the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder and such written approval is accepted in lieu of holding a general meeting pursuant to Rule 14.44 of the Listing Rules.

A circular containing, among other things, (i) details of the Agreement and the Profit Sharing Agreement; (ii) the financial information of the Group; and (iii) the valuation report on the Property, is required to be despatched to the Shareholders within 15 business days after the date of this announcement in accordance with Rule 14.41(a) of the Listing Rules. Having taken into account the estimated time required for the Company to compile the information required for the circular, the circular is expected to be despatched to the Shareholders on or before 31 August 2020, which is beyond the aforesaid deadline. An application will be made by the Company to the Stock Exchange for a waiver from strict compliance with Rule 14.41(a) of the Listing Rules in this regard.

CANCELLATION OF THE PRIOR AGREEMENT, THE OPTION DEED AND THE PM AGREEMENT

Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 23 July 2020 in relation to

  1. the disposal by the Vendor of the entire issued share capital of the Property Company to the Prior Purchaser pursuant to the Prior Agreement; (ii) the call and put options granted under the Option Deed over the shares of the Prior Purchaser; and (iii) the PM Agreement relating to the management of the development project on the Property held by the Property Company. The Vendor is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and held all the issued shares of the Property Company (i.e. the Sale Shares) at the time of the signing of the Prior Agreement. The principal asset of the Property Company is the Property.

Although completion of the disposal took place on 17 July 2020, in light of the better terms offered under the Agreement and the Profit Sharing Agreement as detailed below, the parties to the Prior Agreement agreed to cancel and rescind the Prior Agreement by entering into a deed on 27 July 2020 with the payment of a sum of approximately HK$2,872 million by the Vendor to the Prior Purchaser, which included the return of the cash payment paid by the Prior Purchaser under the Prior Agreement and the related costs and expenses for the cancellation. Simultaneously, the Group also entered into termination deeds with the relevant parties to terminate the Option Deed and the PM Agreement. Upon cancellation, all rights and obligations of the parties shall cease and no party shall have any claim against each other in connection with the Prior Agreement, the Option Deed and the PM Agreement. It is expected that the Group will record a loss arising from the cancellation of the aforesaid agreements (including the professional fees and expenses in relation to the aforesaid agreements and cancellation thereof) of approximately HK$450 million.

THE AGREEMENT

On 27 July 2020, the Vendor, the Purchaser, the Company and Mr. Pan entered into the Agreement (as amended by two supplemental agreements in relation to the fulfilment of the conditions to the Agreement and payment of the consideration), pursuant to which the Vendor agreed to sell and the Purchaser agreed to acquire the Sale Shares.

The consideration for the Sale Shares under the Agreement is approximately HK$3,477 million, which shall be satisfied in the follow manner:

  1. a cash sum of approximately HK$2,872 million, payable by the Purchaser to Agile World Limited (the holding company of the Prior Purchaser) at Completion for the purpose of termination of the Prior Agreement;
  2. a cash sum of approximately HK$505 million, payable by the Purchaser to the Vendor at Completion; and
  3. a cash sum of HK$100 million, payable by the Purchaser to the Vendor at Completion and held in escrow at the Purchaser's solicitors, subject to deduction of an amount (if any) (the ''Deduction Amount'') equal to all outstanding indebtedness or liabilities of any kind of the Property Company as shown in the unaudited financial statements of the Property Company as at the Completion Date (other than the outstanding principal amount of the existing Bank Loan owed by the Property Company), any interests, penalties, fees, expenses, and other amounts payable in connection with any breach of the Bank Loan as of the Completion Date, and any costs involved in connection with any termination of the Property Company's construction contracts as required by the Purchaser.

- 5 -

The consideration for the Sale Shares was determined after arm's length negotiations among the parties with reference to, among other things, (i) the net liabilities of the Property Company of approximately HK$20 million as at 30 June 2020, which amount has been arrived at with the Property being accounted for at its carrying value of approximately HK$9,287 million (the ''Property Book Value'') and the Bank Loan in the principal amount of HK$3,563 million; (ii) the capitalisation of the shareholder's loan of approximately HK$5,697 million in total owed by the Property Company to the Group upon completion of the Loan Restructuring on 17 July 2020; and (iii) the shortfall of approximately HK$2,287 million from the Property Book Value arising from the valuation of the Property as at 31 March 2020 of HK$7,000 million as appraised by an independent valuer based on market approach. The sum of the aforesaid amounts under (i), (ii) and (iii) of approximately HK$3,390 million is hereafter referred to as ''Adjusted NAV'' and the consideration for the Sale Shares represents a premium of approximately HK$87 million or 2.6% over the Adjusted NAV.

- 9 -

The Property Company shall procure that payment in respect of the above profit sharing be arranged within 90 days after the date of the report on the information of (1) to (4) above prepared by the Purchaser and audited by the Purchaser's auditors.

INFORMATION OF THE PROPERTY COMPANY AND THE PROPERTY

The Property Company was incorporated in Hong Kong with limited liability on 26 October 2018 and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Vendor, which is in turn an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, immediately before Completion. It is principally engaged in property development and the principal asset of which is the Property.

The Property is the piece of land parcel known as New Kowloon Inland Lot No. 6591 situated at Kai Tak Area 4B Site 4, Kai Tak, Kowloon, which covers a total site area of approximately 9,708 sq. m. with minimum and maximum developable GFA of 32,037 sq. m. and 53,394 sq. m., respectively. It shall be developed for private residential use. As at the date of this announcement, foundation work has yet to be commenced.

Set out below are certain financial information of the Property Company extracted from its audited financial statements for the period from 26 October 2018 (date of incorporation) to 30 June 2019 and its unaudited financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2020 respectively:

As at 30 June 2020, the unaudited net liabilities of the Property Company amounted to approximately HK$20 million, after taking into account principally the Property Book Value of approximately HK$9,287 million, the loans and amounts due to the Group of approximately HK$5,697 million in aggregate and the outstanding principal amount of the Bank Loan of approximately HK$3,563 million respectively. Having taken into account (i) the valuation of the Property as at 31 March 2020 of HK$7,000 million as appraised by an independent valuer based on market approach; and (ii) completion of the Loan Restructuring, the Adjusted NAV of the Property Company as at 30 June 2020 would have been approximately HK$3,390 million. The consideration for the Sale Shares under the Agreement represents a premium of approximately 2.6% over the Adjusted NAV.

- 10 -

FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF THE DISPOSAL

Upon Completion, the Property Company ceased to be a subsidiary of the Company and its results, assets and liabilities would no longer be consolidated into the financial statements of the Group. Subject to final audit, it is expected that the Group will record a loss on the Disposal of approximately HK$2,750 million, which is calculated based on the difference between (i) the consideration for the Sale Shares under the Agreement of approximately HK$3,477 million and (ii) the sum of (a) the unaudited net liabilities of the Property Company of approximately HK$20 million as at 30 June 2020; (b) the capitalisation of shareholder's loans owed by the Property Company of approximately HK$5,697 million; and (c) the additional finance costs borne by the Company of approximately HK$550 million arising from shareholder's loan previously provided by the Group to the Property Company. In the event that there is any impairment loss on the Property made by reference to the valuation of the Property in accordance with the Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards prior to Completion, which would in turn increase the unaudited net liabilities of the Property Company, the aforesaid loss on Disposal would be reduced by the same amount.

REASONS FOR THE DISPOSAL AND THE PROFIT SHARING AGREEMENT

The Company is an investment holding company. The Group is principally engaged in (i) property development and investment; (ii) winery and wine related business; (iii) provision of factoring services; and (iv) financial investments.

The Directors consider the overall business environment in Hong Kong is experiencing increasing challenges, causing uncertainties and pressure to the Group's property development and investment businesses in the near term. To this end, the Group has been pursuing the sale of the Property with a view to enhancing its financial flexibility. Under the Agreement, the Group will receive fresh capital in the sum of approximately HK$3,477 million which are intended to be used to repay the Group's other borrowings, for the payment to the Prior Purchaser for cancellation of the Prior Agreement and for general working capital purposes. The Disposal enables the Group to realise its investment in the Property at a consideration determined based on the current market value of the land comprising the Property at its undeveloped status and relieves the Group from the business and financial risks associated with the development of the Property. The consideration under the Agreement (after taking into account the related costs and expenses for the cancellation of the Prior Agreement) is higher than the cash payment under the Prior Agreement. Furthermore, the Profit Sharing Agreement provides a mechanism for the Group to share the potential upside in the development of the Property if the future sale prices of the Units exceed the target agreed with the Purchaser. Based on the above, the Directors consider that the Agreement and the Profit Sharing Agreement are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

- 11 -

LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

As the highest applicable percentage ratios (as defined in Rule 14.07 of the Listing Rules) in respect of the Disposal exceeds 25% but all applicable percentage ratios are less than 75%, the Disposal constitutes a major transaction of the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules and is subject to the reporting, announcement, circular and Shareholders' approval requirements.

Mr. Pan, an executive Director and the Chairman of the Board, as well as the controlling shareholder of the Company, is one of the Vendor's guarantors to guarantee the due and punctual performance of the obligations of the Vendor under the Agreement. Since the aforesaid guarantee is provided on normal commercial terms or better to the Group and not secured by any assets of the Group, the guarantee provided by Mr. Pan to the Group constitutes a fully-exempt connected transaction under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

To the best of the Directors' knowledge, information and belief having made all reasonable enquiries, no Shareholder has a material interest in the Disposal and accordingly no Shareholder is required to abstain from voting if the Company were to convene a general meeting for approving the resolution in respect of the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder. As at the date of this announcement, Mr. Pan personally held 239,063,000 Shares and his Controlled Companies, namely Clear Jade International Limited, Goldin Equities Limited and Goldin Global Holdings Limited, held 44,316,000 Shares, 187,213,998 Shares and 4,483,291,636 Shares respectively. The written approval from Mr. Pan and his Controlled Companies (being a closely allied group of Shareholders holding 4,953,884,634 Shares in aggregate (representing approximately 70.86% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of this announcement)) has been obtained in respect of the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder and such written approval is accepted in lieu of holding a general meeting pursuant to Rule 14.44 of the Listing Rules.

A circular containing, among other things, (i) details of the Agreement and the Profit Sharing Agreement; (ii) the financial information of the Group; and (iii) the valuation report on the Property, is required to be despatched to the Shareholders within 15 business days after the date of this announcement in accordance with Rule 14.41(a) of the Listing Rules. Having taken into account the estimated time required for the Company to compile the information required for the circular, the circular is expected to be despatched to the Shareholders on or before 31 August 2020, which is beyond the aforesaid deadline. An application will be made by the Company to the Stock Exchange for a waiver from strict compliance with Rule 14.41(a) of the Listing Rules in this regard.

RESUMPTION OF TRADING

At the request of the Company, trading in the Shares on the Stock Exchange was halted with effect from 9 : 00 a.m. on 28 July 2020 pending the release of this announcement. Application has been made by the Company to the Stock Exchange for the resumption of trading in the Shares on the Stock Exchange with effect from 9 : 00 a.m. on 29 July 2020.
