RESULTS OF THE RIGHTS ISSUE

The Board is pleased to announce that at 4:00 p.m. on Monday, 22 July 2020, being the latest time for acceptance and payment for the Rights Shares and for application and payment for the excess Rights Shares:

  1. 22 valid acceptances of provisional allotments under the PALs were received for a total of 483,800,645 Rights Shares, representing approximately 36.30% of the total number of 1,332,817,890 Rights Shares being offered under the Rights Issue; and

  1. 20 valid applications for excess Rights Shares under the EAFs were received for a total of 876,368,835 Rights Shares, representing approximately 65.75% of the total number of 1,332,817,890 Rights Shares being offered under the Rights Issue.

Pursuant to (i) the HS Deed of Covenants and Undertakings; and (ii) the JS Deed of Covenants and Undertakings, Mr. H Shi and Mr. J Shi have accepted and subscribed for 303,267,000 and 18,300,000 Rights Shares provisionally allotted to them under the PAL, respectively. In addition, Mr. H Shi, through Master Point Overseas Limited, applied for 800,000,000 excess Rights Shares under the EAF. Master Point Overseas Limited is a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, and the entire issued share capital of which is legally and beneficially owned by Mr. H Shi.

In aggregate, 42 valid acceptances and applications in respect of 1,360,169,480 Rights Shares have been accepted and applied for, representing approximately 102.05% of the total number of 1,332,817,890 Rights Shares offered under the Rights Issue.

Based on the above results, the Rights Issue was over-subscribed by 27,351,590 Rights Shares, representing approximately 2.05% of the total number of 1,332,817,890 Rights Shares offered under the Rights Issue.

All conditions set out in the Prospectus have been fulfilled and the Rights Issue became unconditional at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday, 22 July 2020. The gross proceeds raised from the Rights Issue are approximately HK$133.3 million before deducting professional fees and other expenses.

EXCESS APPLICATION

Based on the number of valid acceptances referred to above, 849,017,245 unsubscribed Rights Shares were available for subscription under the EAFs, representing approximately 63.70% of the total number of Rights Shares being offered under the Rights Issue. A total number of 876,368,835 excess Rights Shares were applied for under the EAFs. The allocation of the excess Rights Shares was made pursuant to the principles set out in the section headed "Letter from the Board - Rights Issue - Application for excess Rights Shares" in the Prospectus. Given that the number of excess Rights Shares available for subscription under the EAFs was insufficient to satisfy all valid applications, the allocation of the 849,017,245 Rights Shares to the Qualifying Shareholders who applied for excess Rights Shares was made on a fair and equitable basis, and as far as practicable on a pro-rata basis by reference to the number of Shares held by the Qualifying Shareholders on the Record Date. Reference was only made to the number of Shares held by the Qualifying Shareholders on the Record Date but no reference was made to the Rights Shares subscribed through applications by PALs. In addition, no preference was given to applications for topping up odd-lot holdings to whole lot holdings.
