APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This appendix includes an explanatory statement required by the Stock Exchange to be presented to the Shareholders concerning the Buy-back Mandate proposed to be granted to the Directors in the AGM.

1. LISTING RULES FOR BUY BACK OF SHARES

The Listing Rules permit companies with a primary listing on the Stock Exchange to buy back their shares on the Stock Exchange subject to certain restrictions.

The Listing Rules provide that all such proposed buy back of shares must be approved by shareholders in advance by an ordinary resolution at a general meeting, either by way of a general mandate or by a specific approval of a particular transaction and that the shares to be bought back must be fully paid up.

2. FUNDING AND IMPACT OF BUY BACK OF SHARES

Any buying back of Shares will be made out of funds which are legally available for the purpose in accordance with the Memorandum and Articles, the Listing Rules and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands. As compared with the financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2020 (being the date to which the latest audited accounts of the Company have been made up), the Directors consider that there would not be a material adverse impact on the working capital and on the gearing position of the Company in the event that the proposed buying back of Shares were to be carried out in full during the proposed buy-back period.

The Directors do not propose to exercise the Buy-back Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital of the Company or the gearing position which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

3. REASONS FOR SHARES BUY BACK

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

4. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 300,000,000 Shares.

- 8 -

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

Subject to the passing of the relevant ordinary resolutions to approve the general mandates to issue and buy back Shares and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or bought back between the Latest Practicable Date and the AGM, the Directors would be authorised to exercise the powers of the Company to buy back a maximum of 30,000,000 Shares.

5. UNDERTAKING OF THE DIRECTORS

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange to exercise the Buy-back Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules, the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands and in accordance with the Memorandum and Articles.

6. EFFECT OF THE TAKEOVERS CODE

If as a result of a buying back of Shares pursuant to the Buy-back Mandate, a Shareholder's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purpose of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (as defined in the Takeovers Code), depending on the level of increase of the shareholder's interest, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

In the event the Buy-back Mandate was exercised in full, the interests of each of the above Shareholders in the Company would be increased to approximately the percentages as set out opposite their respective names in the table above. On the basis of the aforesaid increase of shareholding held by the Shareholders set out above, the Directors are not aware of any consequences of such buying back of Shares that would result in any Shareholder, or group of Shareholders acting in concert, becoming obliged to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code if the Buy-back Mandate was exercised in full. Moreover, the Company currently has no intention to exercise the power to buying back Shares to an extent which would render any Shareholder or group of Shareholders obliged to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code. The Company currently has no intention to exercise the Buy-back Mandate to such an extent that results in the amount of Shares held by the public being reduced to less than the minimum public float requirement of 25% of the total Shares in issue of the Company.

7. DIRECTORS, THEIR CLOSE ASSOCIATES AND CORE CONNECTED PERSONS

None of the Directors nor, to the best knowledge and belief of the Directors, having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their respective close associates has any present intention, in the event that the proposed Buy-back Mandate is granted, to sell Shares to the Company.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, no core connected person of the Company has notified the Company that he/she/it has a present intention to sell Shares to the Company nor has he/ she/it undertaken not to sell any of the Shares held by him/her/it to the Company in the event that the Company is authorised to make buying back of Shares.

8. SHARE BUY-BACKS MADE BY THE COMPANY

No buying back of Shares has been made by the Company (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) within the six months prior to the Latest Practicable Date.
