LETTER FROM THE BOARD

PROPOSED GENERAL MANDATE TO REPURCHASE SHARES

At the AGM, it will be proposed, by way of an ordinary resolution, that the Directors be given a general and unconditional mandate to exercise all powers of the Company to repurchase Shares on the Stock Exchange up to a maximum of 10% of the Shares in issue at the date of passing the ordinary resolution.

An explanatory statement containing information relating to the Repurchase Mandate as required pursuant to the Listing Rules is set out in Appendix II to this circular.

ADOPTION OF NEW BYE-LAWS

The Board proposes to amend the Existing Bye-laws to allow general meetings of the Company to be held as a hybrid meeting or electronic meeting where Shareholders may attend by electronic means in addition to as a physical meeting where Shareholders attend in person. The amendments also explicitly set out other related powers of the Board and the chairman of the general meetings, including making arrangements for attendance as well as ensuring the security and orderly conduct of such general meetings. The other house-keeping amendments to the Existing Bye-laws are in line with the proposed amendments. Further, there are also amendments to the Existing Bye-laws to reflect certain updates in relation to the applicable laws of Bermuda and the Listing Rules. The Board proposes to adopt the New Bye-laws in substitution for, and to the exclusion of, the Existing Bye-laws.

The major areas of the proposed amendments that will be incorporated in the New Bye-laws are summarized below:

  1. to allow all general meetings (including inter alia annual general meeting and any adjourned or postponed meeting) to be held as a physical meeting in any part of the world and at one or more locations, or as a hybrid meeting or an electronic meeting;
  2. to insert the definitions of "electronic meeting", "hybrid meeting", "Meeting Location", "physical meeting" and "Principal Meeting Place", and make corresponding changes to the relevant provisions of the Existing Bye-laws;
  3. to include additional details to be specified in a notice of general meeting in light of allowing general meetings to be held at one or more meeting locations, or as a hybrid meeting or an electronic meeting;
  4. to provide that the chairman of the general meeting may, with the consent of the meeting at which a quorum is present, adjourn the meeting from time to time (or indefinitely) and/or from place to place(s) and/or from one form to another (a physical meeting, a hybrid meeting or an electronic meeting);
  5. to provide for the proceedings of general meetings which are held at one or more locations, or as a hybrid meeting or an electronic meeting, and the powers of the Board and the chairman of the meeting in relation thereto;

5

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  1. to provide that, where the Directors, in their absolute discretion, consider that it is inappropriate, impracticable, unreasonable or undesirable for any reason to hold a general meeting on the date or at the time or place or by means of electronic facilities specified in the notice calling for such meeting, they may change or postpone the meeting to another date, time and/or place, change the electronic facilities and/or change the form of the meeting (a physical meeting, a hybrid meeting or an electronic meeting) without approval from the Shareholders;
  2. to provide that votes (other than on a show of hands) may be cast by such means, electronic or otherwise, as the Directors or the chairman of the meeting may determine;
  3. to make other house-keeping amendments, including inserting definition of "electronic communication" and making consequential amendments in line with the above amendments to the Existing Bye-laws;
  4. to provide that the Board may resolve to capitalize all or any part of any amount for the time being standing to the credit of any reserve or fund (including the profit and loss account) whether or not the same is available for distribution by applying such sum in paying up unissued shares to be allotted to
    1. employees (including Directors) of the Company and/or its affiliates upon exercise or vesting of any options or awards granted under any share incentive scheme or employee benefit scheme or other arrangement which relates to such persons that has been adopted or approved by the Shareholders, or
    2. any trustee of any trust to whom shares are to be allotted and issued by the Company in connection with the operation of any share incentive scheme or employee benefit scheme or other arrangement which relates to such persons that has been adopted or approved by the Shareholders;
  5. to remove the convertible preference shares from the authorised share capital of the Company and the terms of the convertible preference shares; and
  6. to make other amendments to better align with the wordings in the applicable laws of Bermuda and the Listing Rules.

The full text of the proposed New Bye-laws(marked-up against the conformed version of the Existing Bye-laws posted on the website of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange) is set out in Appendix III to this circular. The Chinese translation of the proposed New Bye-laws is for reference only. In case of any discrepancy or inconsistency between the English version and its Chinese translation, the English version shall prevail.

The legal advisers to the Company as to Hong Kong laws have confirmed that the proposed New Bye-laws comply with the requirements of the Listing Rules and the legal advisers to the Company as to Bermuda laws have confirmed that the proposed New Bye-laws do not violate the applicable laws of Bermuda. The Company confirms that there is nothing unusual about the proposed New Bye-laws.

6

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

AGM

Set out in Appendix IV to this circular is the Notice. A form of proxy for use by the Shareholders in respect of the AGM is also enclosed. Whether or not the Shareholders are able to attend the AGM, they are requested to complete the enclosed form of proxy and return it to the Company's branch share registrar in Hong Kong, Tricor Progressive Limited, at Level 54, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen's Road East, Hong Kong as soon as possible and in any event not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding the AGM. Completion and return of the form of proxy will not preclude the Shareholders from attending and voting in person at the AGM should they wish to do so.

VOTING BY POLL

Pursuant to Rule 13.39 of the Listing Rules and Bye-law 75, any votes of the Shareholders at a general meeting must be taken by poll. The Company will appoint scrutineers to handle vote-taking procedures at the AGM. The results of the poll will be published on the websites of the Stock Exchange and the Company as soon as possible in accordance with Rule 13.39 of the Listing Rules.

RECOMMENDATION

The Directors are of the opinion that the re-election of retiring Directors, the grant of the New Issue Mandate and the Repurchase Mandate, and the adoption of New Bye-laws are in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole and recommend the Shareholders to vote in favour of the relevant resolutions to be proposed at the AGM.

GENERAL

Your attention is drawn to the additional information set out in the Appendix I (Details of Retiring Directors Proposed for Re-election), Appendix II (Explanatory Statement), Appendix III (Adoption of New Bye-laws) and Appendix IV (Notice of Annual General Meeting) to this circular.

From 2002 to 2006, he was appointed as the Permanent Secretary for the Environment, Transport and Works (Works). He retired from the civil service in 2006.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Mr. Lo does not have, and is not deemed to have, any interests and short positions in any shares, underlying shares or debentures of the Company and its associated corporations (within the meaning of Part XV of the SFO).

Mr. Lo has entered into a letter of appointment with the Company for a term of three years commencing from

Mr. Lo is entitled to an emolument of HK$240,000 per annum for acting as an Independent Non-executive Director and an additional fee of HK$48,000 per annum for acting as the Chairman of the Nomination Committee of the Company. His emolument will be reviewed and determined by the Board annually with authorization granted by the shareholders at the annual general meeting of the Company and taking reference to his duties and responsibilities with the Company and the prevailing market situation.

APPENDIX II

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by Rule 10.06(1)(b) of the Listing Rules, to provide Shareholders with requisite information reasonably necessary for them to make an informed decision as to whether to vote for or against the ordinary resolution to be proposed at the AGM in relation to the Repurchase Mandate.

SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were 1,241,877,992 Shares in issue. Subject to the passing of the relevant ordinary resolution and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased prior to the date of the AGM, the Company would be authorised to repurchase up to a maximum of 124,187,799 Shares.

REASONS FOR THE REPURCHASES

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

FUNDING OF THE REPURCHASES

It is proposed that repurchases of securities under the Repurchase Mandate would be financed from available cash flow or working capital facilities of the Company and its subsidiaries. In repurchasing the securities, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with its memorandum of association and Bye-laws and the laws of Bermuda. The laws of Bermuda provides that the amount of capital repaid in connection with a share repurchase may only be paid out of either the capital paid up on the relevant Shares, or funds of the Company which would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or the proceeds of a new issue of Shares made for the purpose of the repurchase. The amount of premium payable on the repurchase may only be paid out of either funds of the Company which would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or out of the share premium account before the Shares are repurchased.

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 latest published audited accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2020), in the event that the proposed Repurchase Mandate was to be exercised in full at any time during the proposed repurchase period. However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements or the gearing levels of the Company which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

DISCLOSURE OF INTERESTS

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

No core connected person (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company has notified the Company that he/she has a present intention to sell any of the Shares to the Company, or has undertaken not to do so, in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

UNDERTAKING OF THE DIRECTORS

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the powers of the Company to make repurchase pursuant to the proposed resolution in accordance with the Listing Rules and the laws of Bermuda.

12

APPENDIX II

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

EFFECT OF THE TAKEOVERS CODE

If a Shareholder's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases as a result of the Directors exercising the powers of the Company to repurchase Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, such increase will be treated as an acquisition of voting rights for the purposes of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a Shareholder or group of Shareholders acting in concert could obtain or consolidate control of the Company as a result of share repurchases by the Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, approximately 56.76% of the total number of Shares in issue was held by Wai Kee and its subsidiaries and, assuming full exercise of the Repurchase Mandate, approximately 63.07% will be held by Wai Kee and its subsidiaries. The Directors are not aware of any consequences which will arise under the Takeovers Code upon exercise of the Repurchase Mandate.

SHARE REPURCHASES MADE BY THE COMPANY

No repurchase of the Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) has been made by the Company during the six months preceding the Latest Practicable Date.

The holders of Preference Shares shall be entitled to receive dividends prior to and in preference to the holders of Ordinary Shares. No dividend, whether in cash, in property or in shares of the Company, shall be allowed to be paid on any other class or series of shares of the Company unless and until the dividend payable to holders of the Preference Shares was first paid or granted in full on the Preference Shares.

    1. Each holder of Preference Shares shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any assets, surplus or funds of the Company to the holders of the Ordinary Shares or any other class or series of shares of the Company by reason of their ownership of such shares, an amount per Preference Share held by him which shall equal to (i) the aggregate amount of the issue price of all Preference Shares then in issue and outstanding divided by

If, upon the occurrence of a Liquidation Event, the assets and funds available to be distributed among the holders of Preference Shares shall be insufficient to permit the payment to such holders of the Preference Amount, then the entire assets and funds of the Company legally available for distribution to such holders shall be distributed rateably among the holders of the Preference Shares in proportion to the aggregate Preference Amount for the Preference Shares owned by each such holder.

APPENDIX III

ADOPTION OF NEW BYE-LAWS

      Shareholding Proportions only. "Shareholding Proportion" in respect of each shareholder means the proportion which the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares held by such shareholder bears to the aggregate number of all Ordinary Shares held by all shareholders.

    3. Nothing herein shall affect in any way the right of each holder of Preference Shares to convert such shares at any time and from time to time into Ordinary Shares in accordance with section (4) hereof.

  1. Voting Rights. The holder of each Preference Share shall not have any voting rights.

21

APPENDIX III

ADOPTION OF NEW BYE-LAWS

  1. Conversion. The holders of Preference Shares shall have conversion rights as follows:
    1. Right to Convert. Each Preference Share shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time after the date of issuance of such share but before the seventh anniversary thereof, into such number of fully-paid Ordinary Shares to be determined by the issue price of such Preference Shares divided by the conversion price (the "Conversion Price") of HK$0.01 per Ordinary Share. The initial Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment as provided in accordance with section (4)(D). For the avoidance of doubt, no payment shall be made by the holder of Preference Shares to the Company upon or in connection with the conversion of Preference Shares into Ordinary Shares.
    2. Mandatory Conversion. Each Preference Share shall automatically be converted into such number of Ordinary Shares to be determined by the issue price of such Preference Shares divided by the then effective applicable Conversion Price on the seventh anniversary of the date of issuance of the Preference Share (such event being referred to herein as the "Mandatory Conversion").
    3. Mechanics of Conversion. No fractional Ordinary Shares shall be issued upon conversion of the Preference Shares. All Ordinary Shares (including any fractions thereof) issuable upon conversion of more than one Preference Share by a holder thereof shall be aggregated for purposes of determining whether the issuance would result in the issuance of any fractional share. Any holder of Preference Shares shall, to the extent possible, convert the Preference Shares in board lots of Ordinary Shares. One Ordinary Share shall be issued and allotted in respect of any fractional Ordinary Share arising on conversion of the Preference Shares being converted by a holder. For the purpose of the conversion hereunder, if the par value of the Ordinary Shares to be issued on the conversion of any Preference Shares have an aggregate par value greater than the aggregate par value of the Preference Shares being converted, the Company shall, subject to applicable laws, capitalise any part of the surplus and apply the same in paying up at par the requisite number of Ordinary Shares or, where there is insufficient surplus, effect a fresh issue of Shares at a premium and apply the proceeds thereof in paying up at par the required number of additional Ordinary Shares to be issued on the conversion of the Preference Shares so as to satisfy the provisions hereunder. All Ordinary Shares so issued shall rank pari passu in all respect to the Ordinary Shares then in issue.

22

APPENDIX III

ADOPTION OF NEW BYE-LAWS

Before any holder of Preference Shares shall be entitled to convert the same into Ordinary Shares and to receive certificates therefor, such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the Company in Hong Kong and shall give written notice to the Company at such office that he or she elects to convert the same; provided, however, that in the event of the Mandatory Conversion pursuant to Section (4)(B), the outstanding Preference Shares shall be converted mandatorily without any further action by the holders of such shares and whether or not the certificates representing such shares are surrendered to the Company and provided further that the Company shall not be obligated to issue certificates evidencing the Ordinary Shares issuable upon the Mandatory Conversion unless the certificates evidencing such Preference Shares are either delivered to the Company as provided above, or the holder notifies the Company that such certificates have been lost, stolen, or destroyed and provides such indemnity as may be reasonably required by the Company.

The Company shall, as soon as practicable after such delivery, or such notification in the case of a lost, stolen, or destroyed certificate, issue and deliver at such office to such holder of the Preference Shares, a certificate or certificates for the number of Ordinary Shares to which such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the Preference Shares to be converted, or in the case of Mandatory Conversion, on the seventh anniversary of the issue of the Preference Shares, and the person or persons entitled to receive the Ordinary Shares issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Ordinary Shares at such time. For the avoidance of doubt, no conversion shall prejudice the right of a holder of Preference Shares to receive dividends and other distributions declared but not paid as at the date of conversion on the Preference Shares being converted.

23

APPENDIX III

ADOPTION OF NEW BYE-LAWS

  1. Adjustments to Conversion Price
    The adjustments to the Conversion Price is to ensure that the shareholding of the holders of the Preference Shares shall not be affected by any change in the share capital of the Company.
    1. Adjustments for Dividends, Splits, Subdivisions, Combinations, or Consolidation of Ordinary Shares. In the event the outstanding Ordinary Shares shall be increased by a share dividend payable in Ordinary Shares, share split, subdivision, or other similar transaction into a greater number of Ordinary Shares, the Conversion Price then in effect shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such event, be decreased in proportion to the percentage increase in the outstanding number of Ordinary Shares. In the event the outstanding Ordinary Shares shall be decreased by a reverse share split, combination, consolidation, or other similar transaction into a smaller number of Ordinary Shares, the Conversion Price then in effect shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such event, be increased in proportion to the percentage decrease in the outstanding number of Ordinary Shares.
      Except to the limited extent provided for in the case of a reverse share split, combination, consolidation or other similar transaction, no adjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this section (4)(D) shall have the effect of increasing the Conversion Price above the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment.

24

APPENDIX III

ADOPTION OF NEW BYE-LAWS

  1. Adjustments for Reclassification, Exchange and Substitution. If the Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Preference Shares shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of any other class or classes of shares, whether by capital reorganisation, reclassification, or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares provided for above), the Conversion Price then in effect shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such reorganisation or reclassification, be proportionately adjusted such that the Preference Shares shall be convertible into, in lieu of the number of Ordinary Shares which the holders would otherwise have been entitled to receive, a number of shares of such other class or classes of shares equivalent to the number of shares of such other class or classes of shares in the capital of the Company into which the Ordinary Shares that would have been subject to receipt by the holders of Preference Shares upon conversion of such Preference Shares immediately before that change would have been changed into.
  2. Adjustments on Lower Price Issuance.
    1. If and whenever the Company shall issue any "Additional Shares" (as defined below) at any time after the date of completion (the "Completion Date") of the proposed restructuring of the Company as set out in the document issued by the Company on 24 February, 2004 (the "Document") for a consideration per share less than the Conversion Price in effect on the date and immediately prior to such issue, then and in each such event, the Conversion Price then in effect shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue, to the price per share received by the Company pursuant to the issue of such Additional Shares.

25

APPENDIX III

ADOPTION OF NEW BYE-LAWS

(ii) For purposes of this section (4)(D)(c)(i), "Additional Shares" shall mean all equity securities of the Company ("Equity Securities") issued after the Completion Date other than (I) Ordinary Shares issued or issuable at any time upon conversion of any Preference Shares; (II) Ordinary Shares issued or issuable as part of the proposed restructuring of the Company as set out in the Document; (III) Equity Securities issued or issuable as a dividend or distribution with respect to any shares in the capital of the Company; (IV) Equity Securities issued or issuable at any time upon exercise of any rights or options to subscribe for Equity Securities where the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such rights or options has already been adjusted as a result of and in accordance with this section (4); (V) Equity Securities issued or issuable pursuant to the consent in writing of all the members of the Company; and (VI) Equity Securities issued or issuable as a result of any share split or share consolidation or the like which does not affect the total amount of issued share capital in the Company.

(iii) For the purpose of making any adjustment to the Conversion Price as provided in section (4)(D)(c)(i) above, the consideration received by the Company for any issue of Additional Shares shall be computed:

(I) to the extent it consists of cash, as to the amount of cash received by the Company (before deduction of any offering expenses payable by the Company and any underwriting or similar commissions, compensation, or concessions paid or allowed by the Company negotiated on an arm's length basis by the Company with such underwriting agent) in connection with such issue;

(II) to the extent it consists of property other than cash, at the fair market value of that property as reasonably determined in good faith by an independent valuer appointed by the Board;

26

APPENDIX III

ADOPTION OF NEW BYE-LAWS

(III) if Additional Shares are issued together with other stock or securities or other assets of the Company for a consideration which covers both, as the portion of the consideration so received that may be reasonably determined in good faith by the Board to be allocable to such Additional Shares; and

(IV) if Additional Shares are issued in connection with any merger in which the Company is the amalgamated company, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair market value (as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board) of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-amalgamated company as is attributable to such Additional Shares.

If the Additional Shares comprise any rights or options to subscribe for, purchase, or otherwise acquire Ordinary Shares, or any security convertible or exchangeable into Ordinary Shares, then, in each case, the price per share received by the Company upon new issue of such Additional Shares will be determined by dividing the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the granting of the rights or options or the issue of the convertible securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration payable to the Company on exercise or conversion of the securities, by the maximum number of Ordinary Shares issuable on such exercise or conversion. Such granting or issue will be considered to be an issue for cash of the maximum number of Ordinary Shares issuable on exercise or conversion at the price per share determined hereunder, and the Conversion Price, will be adjusted as above provided to reflect (on the basis of that determination) the issue. No further adjustment of such Conversion Price will be made as a result of the actual issuance of Ordinary Shares on the exercise of any such rights or options or the conversion of any such convertible securities.

27

APPENDIX III

ADOPTION OF NEW BYE-LAWS

Upon the redemption or repurchase of any such securities or the expiration or termination of the right to convert into, exchange for, or exercise with respect to, Ordinary Shares, the Conversion Price will be readjusted to such price as would have been obtained had the adjustment made upon their issuance been made upon the basis of the issuance of only the number of such securities as were actually converted into, exchanged for, or exercised with respect to, Ordinary Shares. If the purchase price or conversion or exchange rate provided for in any such security changes at any time, then, upon suchchange becoming effective, the Conversion Price then in effect will be readjusted forthwith to such price as would have been obtained had the adjustment made upon the issuance of such securities been made upon the basis of (I) the issuance of only the number of Ordinary Shares theretofore actually delivered upon the conversion, exchange or exercise of such securities, and the total consideration received herefore, and (II) the granting or issuance, at the time of such change, of any such securities then still outstanding for the consideration, if any, received by the Company herefore and to be received on the basis of such changed price or rate.

28

APPENDIX III

ADOPTION OF NEW BYE-LAWS

(iv) Adjustments for Other Distributions. In the event the Company at any time or from time to time makes, or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of Ordinary Shares entitled to receive, any distribution payable in securities of the Company other than Ordinary Shares and other than as adjusted elsewhere in this section (4), then and in each such event provision shall be made so that the holders of Preference Shares shall receive upon conversion thereof, in addition to the number of Ordinary Shares receivable thereupon, the amount of securities of the Company which they would have received had their Preference Shares been converted into Ordinary Shares immediately prior to such record date or on the date of such event and had they thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the date of conversion, retained such securities receivable by them as aforesaid during such period, subject to all other adjustments called for during such period under this section (4) with respect to the rights of the holders of Preference Shares. If the Company shall declare a distribution payable in securities of other persons, evidence of indebtedness of the Company or other persons, assets (excluding cash dividends) or options or rights not referred to in section (4)(D)(d), the holders of Preference Shares shall be entitled to a proportionate share of any such distribution as though they were the holders of the number of Ordinary Shares into which their Preference Shares are convertible as of the record date fixed for determination of the holders of Ordinary Shares entitled to receive such distribution.

  1. Save as expressly provided in this section (4), there shall be no other adjustment in the Conversion Price.

APPENDIX III

ADOPTION OF NEW BYE-LAWS

    1. Extension of General Offer. So long as any Preference Shares are outstanding and the Company becomes aware that an offer is made or an invitation is extended to all holders of Ordinary Shares generally to acquire all or some of the Ordinary Shares or any scheme or arrangement is proposed for that acquisition, the Company shall forthwith give notice to all holders of Preference Shares and the Company shall use its best endeavours to ensure that there is made or extended at the same time a similar offer or invitation, or that the scheme or arrangement is extended, to each holder of Preference Shares, as if its conversion rights had been fully exercised on a date which is immediately before the record date for the offer or invitation or the scheme or arrangement at the Conversion Price applicable at that time.
  1. No Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of its memorandum of association, its bye-laws or through any reorganisation, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company but shall at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this section (4) and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of the holders of Preference Shares against impairment.

Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this section (4), the Company, at its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof, and furnish to each holder of Preference Shares subject to such adjustment or readjustment, a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall, upon the written request of any holder of Preference Shares, furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a like certificate setting forth (i) such adjustments and readjustments, (ii) the applicable Conversion Price then in effect, and (iii) the number of shares of Ordinary Shares and the amount, if any, of other property which at the time would be received upon the conversion of the Preference Shares.

The Company will also be undertaking the following precautionary measures to safeguard the health and well-being of the shareholders (or their proxies) who are attending the Annual General Meeting in person, including body temperature check, health declaration, wearing surgical face mask, access restriction for quarantine participants according to the Department of Health of Hong Kong, plus safe distancing measures for queue management and seating at the meeting venue. Any person who refuses to co-operate with the above precautionary measures, or with a body temperature above the reference range quoted by the Department of Health of Hong Kong from time to time, or exhibiting flu-like symptoms will not be admitted to the meeting venue.
