2. REPURCHASE MANDATE

An ordinary resolution of the Company was passed on 29 May 2020 whereby a general mandate was given to the Directors to repurchase Shares.

Such general mandate will lapse at the conclusion of the forthcoming AGM. Therefore an ordinary resolution will be proposed at the AGM to grant a general mandate to the Directors to repurchase Shares up to a maximum of 10% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of passing the Repurchase Resolution (the "Repurchase Mandate").

An explanatory statement, as required under the Listing Rules, providing the requisite information of the Repurchase Mandate is set out in Appendix I to this circular.

3. SHARE ISSUE MANDATE

Two ordinary resolutions will be proposed respectively at the AGM to grant the Directors (i) a general mandate to allot, issue and deal with Shares up to a maximum of 20% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of passing the Share Issue Resolution (the "Share Issue Mandate") and (ii) an extension of the Share Issue Mandate by adding thereto the number of Shares repurchased by the Company pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, up to a maximum of 10% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of passing of the resolution approving such an extension (the "Extension Mandate").

4. RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS

The Board currently consists of eight Directors, namely Mr. Li Zhenjiang, Ms. Xin Yunxia, Mr. Li Huimin, Mr. Chen Zhong, Ms. Cheng Li, Prof. Luo Guoan, Mr. Cheung Chun Yue Anthony and Mr. Zhou Wencheng.

Mr. Li Huimin, Mr. Chen Zhong and Mr. Cheung Chun Yue Anthony will retire by rotation at the AGM.

5. DECLARATION OF FINAL DIVIDEND

As mentioned in the announcement of the Company dated 30 March 2021, the Directors proposed that a final dividend of RMB21 cents (equivalent to HK$0.2484 according to the telegraphic transfer exchange rates quoted by the bank at 10:00 a.m. on 30 March 2021 (RMB1=HK$1.183)) per share (the "Final Dividend") will be paid on 17 June 2021, to Shareholders whose names appear on the register of members of the Company on 10 June 2021, and the above dividend is subject to approval of the Shareholders at the AGM and compliance with the Companies Law.

7. VOTING BY POLL

Pursuant to Rule 13.39(4) of the Listing Rules, any vote of Shareholders at a general meeting must be taken by poll except where the chairman of the general meeting, in good faith, decides to allow a resolution which relates purely to a procedural or administrative matter to be voted on by a show of hands.

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This Appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by the Listing Rules, to provide you with all the information necessary for your consideration of the Repurchase Mandate.

1. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the total number of Shares in issue was 827,000,000. Subject to the passing of the Repurchase Resolution and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased by the Company prior to the AGM, the Company would be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase up to a maximum of 82,700,000 Shares (representing 10% of the total number of issued Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date).

2. REASONS FOR REPURCHASES

The Directors are of the view that the Repurchase Mandate is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. An exercise of the Repurchase Mandate may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value and its assets and/or its earnings per share of the Company and will only be made when the Directors are of the view that such a repurchase will benefit the Company and the Shareholders.

3. FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

In repurchasing Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with its memorandum of association, the Articles and the applicable laws and regulations of the Cayman Islands. Pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, repurchases will be made out of funds of the Company legally permitted to be utilized in this connection, including profits of the Company or out of a fresh issue of Shares made for such purpose of the repurchase or, if authorized by the Articles and subject to the Companies Law, out of capital and, in the case of any premium payable on the repurchase, out of the profits of the Company or from sums standing to the credit of the share premium account of the Company or, if authorized by the Articles and subject to the Companies Law, out of capital of the Company. The Company may not repurchase 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 prevailing from time to time.

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 consolidated financial statements contained in the annual report 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 propose 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 positions which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

5. SHARE REPURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY

No repurchases have been made by the Company of its Shares in the six months prior to the Latest Practicable Date.

6. UNDERTAKING

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the power of the Company under the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

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

No core connected persons (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company have notified the Company that they have a present intention to sell any Share to the Company, or have undertaken not to do so, in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

7. EFFECT OF TAKEOVERS CODE

If, as a result of the exercise of the 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 the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder or group of Shareholders acting in concert (within the meaning under the Takeovers Code), could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, 546,802,990 Shares are beneficially owned by Forway. The entire issued share capital of Forway is owned by Fiducia Suisse SA in its capacity as the trustee of The Li Family 2004 Trust, a discretionary trust, the founder (as defined in the SFO) of which is Mr. Li Zhenjiang and the discretionary objects of which are family members of Mr. Li Zhenjiang (excluding Mr. Li Zhenjiang himself). Accordingly, Mr. Li Zhenjiang, Forway and Fiducia Suisse SA are respectively deemed to be interested in the 546,802,990 Shares (representing approximately 66.12% of the total number of issued shares of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date) under the SFO.

In the event that the Directors exercise in full the power to repurchase Shares under the Repurchase Mandate, then, (if the present shareholding remains the same) the attributable interests of Fiducia Suisse SA, Mr. Li Zhenjiang and Forway would be increased to approximately 73.47% of the total number of issued shares of the Company. The Directors are of the view that such increase will not give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code.

The Directors do not intend to exercise the Repurchase Mandate so as to reduce the number of issued shares of the Company in public hands to less than 25% (or the relevant prescribed minimum percentage required by the Stock Exchange from time to time).
