APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This appendix is an explanatory statement required to be sent to the Shareholders pursuant to Rule 10.06(1)(b) of the Listing Rules containing all the information reasonably necessary to enable the Shareholders to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the ordinary resolution approving the granting of the Buy-back Mandate to be proposed at the AGM.

1. THE BUY-BACK MANDATE

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the total number of issued Shares comprised 1,578,664,000 Shares.

Subject to the passing of the proposed ordinary resolution granting the Buy-back Mandate at the AGM and on the basis that no further Shares will be allotted and issued or bought back and cancelled prior to the AGM nor outstanding options, if any, granted under the share option scheme of the Company being exercised, the Company would be allowed under the Buy-back Mandate to buy back a maximum of 157,866,400 Shares during the period from the date of passing of the relevant ordinary resolution at the AGM up to (a) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; (b) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Articles or any applicable laws to be held; or (c) the revocation, variation or renewal of the Buy-back Mandate is revoked or varied by an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting, whichever is the earliest.

2. REASONS FOR BUY-BACKS

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

3. FUNDING OF BUY-BACK

Any buy-back may only be effected out of funds of the Company legally available for the purposes in accordance with the Articles and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands. A listed company may not buy back its own shares on the Stock Exchange for a consideration other than cash or for settlement otherwise than in accordance with the trading rules of the Stock Exchange from time to time.

It is presently proposed that any buy-back of Shares would be made out of capital (subject to the Companies Law), profits of the Company or out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of Shares made for the purpose and, in the case of any premium payable on such buy-back, from profits of the Company or from the Company's share premium account or out of capital (subject to the Companies Law).

- 9 -

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

The buy-back of Shares made out of capital will be conditional upon the fact that immediately following the date on which payment out of capital is proposed to be made, the Company shall be able to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business.

4. STATUS OF SHARES BOUGHT BACK

The Listing Rules provide that the listing of all Shares bought back is automatically cancelled and that the certificates for those Shares must be cancelled and destroyed. Under the laws of the Cayman Islands, a company's shares bought back shall be treated as cancelled and its issued share capital (but not the authorized share capital) will be reduced accordingly.

5. EFFECT OF EXERCISE OF THE BUY-BACK MANDATE

There might be a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Group (as compared with the position disclosed in the audited financial statements contained in the annual report of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2020) in the event that the Buy- back Mandate is exercised in full. However, the Directors do not propose 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 of the Group or gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Group.

6. DIRECTORS, THEIR CLOSE ASSOCIATES AND CORE CONNECTED PERSONS

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge, having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their respective close associates (as defined in the Listing Rules), has any present intention, in the event that the Buy-back Mandate is approved by the Shareholder, to sell any Shares to the Company.

None of the core connected persons (as defined in the Listing Rules) have notified the Company that they have a present intention to sell Shares to the Company or have undertaken not to sell any of the Shares held by them to the Company, in the event that the Buy-back Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

7. DIRECTORS' UNDERTAKING

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that they will exercise the power of the Company to buy back Shares pursuant to the Buy-back Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

- 10 -

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

8. TAKEOVERS CODE AND PUBLIC FLOAT REQUIREMENT

If as a result of a buy-back of Shares, a Shareholder's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder, or a group of Shareholders acting in concert, depending on the level of increase in the Shareholder's interests, may obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code. The Directors are not aware of any consequences which could arise under the Takeovers Code as a consequence of any buy-backs pursuant to the Buy-back Mandate.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Sonic Tycoon Limited, which is the controlling shareholder of the Company, held 1,183,998,000 Shares, representing 75% of the issued capital of the Company. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Directors are not aware of any consequences for Sonic Tycoon Limited under the Takeovers Code as a result, solely, of the Directors exercising the Buy-back Mandate in full. However, if the Buy-back Mandate is exercised in full, the amount of Shares held by Sonic Tycoon Limited will increase to approximately 83.33% and the amount of Shares held by the public will be reduced to less than 25% of the total issued share capital of the Company respectively. The Directors have no intention to buy back Shares to such an extent which will result in the amount of Shares held by the public being reduced to less than 25%.

9. SHARE PURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY

No buy-backs of securities have been made by the Company in the previous six months, whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise.
