To the Shareholders

Dear Sir/Madam,

PROPOSED DECLARATION OF FINAL DIVIDEND;

PROPOSED RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS;

AND

PROPOSED GRANTING OF GENERAL MANDATES TO

REPURCHASE SHARES AND TO ISSUE SHARES

1. INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this circular is to provide the Shareholders with information in respect of the resolutions to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting which include, among other matters, the approval of the (i) declaration of final dividend; (ii) re-election of Directors; and (iii) granting of the Repurchase Mandate and the Issuance Mandate.

2. PROPOSED DECLARATION OF FINAL DIVIDEND

As mentioned in the annual results announcement of the Company dated 30 March 2021, the Board recommended the payment of a final dividend of HK$0.025 per Share for the year ended 31 December 2020. The proposed final dividend will be paid out of the Share Premium Account to the Shareholders whose names appear on the register of members of the Company on Friday, 4 June 2021, subject to the approval of the Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting and compliance with the Companies Act.

- 4 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Under section 34(2) of the Companies Act, the share premium account may be applied by a company in paying dividends to members provided that no dividend may be paid to members out of the share premium account unless, immediately following the date on which the dividend is proposed to be paid, the company shall be able to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business. The Board confirms that with respect to the payment of the proposed final dividend out of the Share Premium Account, the Company shall be able to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business immediately following the date on which the final dividend is proposed to be paid.

The final dividend is intended to be entirely paid out of the Share Premium Account pursuant to Article 24.6 of the Articles of Association and in accordance with the Companies Act.

For determining the entitlement to the proposed final dividend (subject to approval by the Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting), the register of members of the Company will be closed from Wednesday, 2 June 2021 to Friday, 4 June 2021, both dates inclusive, during which period no transfer of Shares will be registered. In order to qualify for the proposed final dividend, unregistered holders of Shares shall ensure that all transfer documents accompanied by the relevant share certificates must be lodged with the Company's branch share registrar in Hong Kong, Tricor Investor Services Limited, at Level 54, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen's Road East, Hong Kong for registration not later than 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday, 1 June 2021 (Hong Kong time).

3. PROPOSED RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

In accordance with Article 16.18 of the Articles of Association, Ms. Xuan Jing, Mr. Luo Zhenbang ("Mr. Luo") and Mr. Bai Jinrong ("Mr. Bai") shall retire at the Annual General Meeting. All of the above Directors, being eligible, will offer themselves for re-election at the Annual General Meeting.

In accordance with code provision A.4.3 of the Corporate Governance Code contained in Appendix 14 to the Listing Rules, if an independent non-executive director serves more than nine years, his further appointment should be subject to a separate resolution to be approved by the Shareholders. Mr. Bai has served as an independent non-executive Director for more than nine years and Mr. Luo will have served as an independent non-executive Director for more than nine years on 13 November 2021. The Company has received a confirmation of independence made pursuant to Rule 3.13 of the Listing Rules from each of Mr. Bai and Mr. Luo. During their tenure as Directors, Mr. Bai and Mr. Luo actively participated in meetings of the Board and its committees to provide unbiased opinions and exercised independent judgement, and attended general meetings of shareholders of the Company to fully understand the views of the Shareholders. They have never been involved in any administrative management of the Group. Considering the independence of their duties and responsibilities over the past years, the Board believes that although Mr. Bai and Mr. Luo has/will have served the Company for more than nine years, they are still considered to be independent under the Listing Rules. The Board believes that Mr. Bai's and Mr. Luo's long tenure has allowed them to accumulate valuable insights into the Group's business strategies and policies, and that their re-election as independent non-executive Directors will help the Board maintain stability.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Details of the Directors proposed for re-election at the Annual General Meeting are set out in Appendix I to this circular.

4. PROPOSED GRANTING OF THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

At the annual general meeting of the Company held on 26 May 2020, a general mandate was granted to the Directors to repurchase Shares. Such mandate will lapse at the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting. In order to give the Company the flexibility to repurchase Shares if and when appropriate, an ordinary resolution will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to approve the granting of the Repurchase Mandate to the Directors to repurchase Shares on the Stock Exchange of not exceeding 10% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of passing of the proposed ordinary resolution at the Annual General Meeting (i.e. a total of 209,714,672 Shares on the basis that the number of issued Shares of 2,097,146,727 Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date remains unchanged on the date of the Annual General Meeting). The Directors wish to state that they have no immediate plan to repurchase any Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate.

An explanatory statement required by the Listing Rules to provide the Shareholders with requisite information reasonably necessary for them to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the granting of the Repurchase Mandate is set out in Appendix II to this circular.

5. PROPOSED GRANTING OF THE ISSUANCE MANDATE

At the annual general meeting of the Company held on 26 May 2020, a general mandate was granted to the Directors to issue Shares. Such mandate will lapse at the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting. In order to give the Company the flexibility to issue Shares if and when appropriate, an ordinary resolution will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to approve the granting of the Issuance Mandate to the Directors to allot, issue or deal with additional Shares of not exceeding 20% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of passing of the proposed ordinary resolution at the Annual General Meeting (i.e. a total of 419,429,345 Shares on the basis that the number of issued Shares of 2,097,146,727 Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date remains unchanged on the date of the Annual General Meeting). An ordinary resolution to extend the Issuance Mandate by adding the number of Shares repurchased by the Company pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate will also be proposed at the Annual General Meeting.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 2,097,146,727 Shares.

Subject to the passing of the ordinary resolution in respect of the granting of the Repurchase Mandate at the Annual General Meeting and on the basis that the issued share capital of the Company remains unchanged on the date of the Annual General Meeting, i.e. being 2,097,146,727 Shares, the Directors would be authorised under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase, during the period in which the Repurchase Mandate remains in force, a total of 209,714,672 Shares, representing 10% of the total number of Shares in issue as at the date of the Annual General Meeting.

3. REASONS FOR SHARE REPURCHASE

The Directors believe that the granting of the Repurchase Mandate is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Shares repurchase may, depending on the market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value per Share and/or earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such a repurchase will benefit the Company and the Shareholders.

4. FUNDING OF SHARE REPURCHASE

The Company may only apply funds legally available for share repurchase in accordance with its Memorandum, the Articles of Association, the Companies Act and other applicable laws of the Cayman Islands, as the case may be.

5. IMPACT OF SHARE REPURCHASE

There might be a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company (as compared with the position disclosed in the audited accounts contained in the annual report of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2020) in the event that the Repurchase Mandate was to be carried out in full at any time during the proposed repurchase period. However, the Directors do not intend to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company or the gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

6. MARKET PRICES OF SHARES

The highest and lowest prices per Share at which Shares have traded on the Stock Exchange during each of the previous 12 months up to and including the Latest Practicable Date were as follows:

GENERAL

To the best of their knowledge and having made all reasonable enquiries, none of the Directors nor any of their respective close associates (as defined in the Listing Rules) have any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company in the event that the granting of the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

- 13 -

APPENDIX II EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

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 that they have undertaken not to sell any Shares held by them to the Company in the event that the granting of the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange to exercise the power of the Company to repurchase Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands and the regulations set out in the Memorandum and the Articles of Association.

8. TAKEOVERS CODE

If as a result of a repurchase of Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, a Shareholder 's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition of voting rights for the purposes of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a Shareholder or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (within the meaning under the Takeovers Code), depending on the level of increase in the Shareholder 's interest, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and thereby become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

To the best knowledge of the Company, as at the Latest Practicable Date, BII HK was interested in 1,157,634,900 Shares representing approximately 55.20% of the total issued share capital of the Company. In the event that the Directors exercise the proposed Repurchase Mandate in full, the shareholding of BII HK would be increased to approximately 61.33% of the issued share capital of the Company. The Directors are not aware of any consequences which may give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

The Directors do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent as would, in the circumstances, give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code and/or result in the aggregate number of Shares held by the public shareholders falling below the prescribed minimum percentage required by the Stock Exchange.

9. REPURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY

During the 6 months prior to the Latest Practicable Date, the Company had not repurchased any of the Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise).
