PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES FOR THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

With the outbreak and spreading of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and the heightened requirements for the prevention and control of its spreading, to safeguard the health and safety of Shareholders who might be attending the AGM in person, the Company will implement the following precautionary measures at the AGM.

Voting by proxy in advance of the AGM: The Company does not in any way wish to diminish the opportunity available to Shareholders to exercise their rights and to vote, but is conscious of the pressing need to protect Shareholders from possible exposure to the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. For the health and safety of Shareholders, the Company would like to encourage Shareholders to exercise their right to vote at the AGM by appointing the Chairman of the AGM as their proxy instead of attending the AGM in person. Physical attendance is not necessary for the purpose of exercising Shareholder rights. Completion and return of the form of proxy will not preclude Shareholders from attending and voting in person at the AGM or any adjournment thereof should they subsequently so wish.

The deadline to submit completed forms of proxy is 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday, 25 May

2021. Completed forms of proxy must be deposited at the Company's branch share registrar in Hong Kong, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited at 17M Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen's Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong.

Shareholders are strongly encouraged to cast their votes by submitting a form of

proxy and appointing the Chairman of the AGM as their proxy.

To safeguard the health and safety of Shareholders who might be attending the AGM in person, the Company will also implement the following measures at the AGM:

  1. Compulsory temperature screening/checks will be carried out on every attendee at the main entrance of United Conference Centre, 10/F., United Centre, 95 Queensway, Admiralty, Hong Kong (the "AGM venue"). Any person with a body temperature above the reference range quoted by the Department of Health from time to time, or is exhibiting flu-like symptoms may be denied entry into the AGM venue and be requested to leave the AGM venue.
  2. Every attendee will be required to wear a surgical face mask throughout the AGM and sit at a safe distance from other attendees. Please note that no masks will be provided at the AGM venue and attendees should bring and wear their own masks.
  3. There will be no corporate gifts, and no refreshments or drinks will be served to attendees at the AGM.

AND

AMENDMENTS TO THE ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION

INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this circular is to provide you with information regarding the ordinary resolutions and special resolution to be proposed, and if thought fit, to be approved at the forthcoming AGM in relation to (a) the re-election of the retiring

- 6 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Directors; (b) the granting of the Issue Mandate, the Repurchase Mandate and the Extension Mandate; (c) the 2020 Proposed Final Dividend; and (d) the Proposed Amendments. An AGM Notice is set out on pages 41 to 46 of this circular.

RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS

In accordance with Articles 84(1) of the Articles, Mr. Chan, Mr. Ma and Ms. Zheng will retire from office by rotation, and being eligible, offer themselves for re-election at the AGM.

The Nomination Committee, having reviewed the structure and composition of the Board and the confirmation of independence provided by Mr. Ma pursuant to Rule 3.13 of the Listing Rules, nominated Mr. Ma to the Board for it to recommend to the Shareholders for re-election as an independent non-executive Director at the AGM. The nomination was made in accordance with the nomination policy of the Company and the objective criteria, with due regard for the benefits of diversity, as set out under the board diversity policy of the Company (including without limitation, gender, age, cultural and education background, professional experience, skills and knowledge). The Nomination Committee had also taken into account the working profile and extensive experience of Mr. Ma as set out in Appendix I to this circular, contributions of Mr. Ma to the Board and his commitment to his roles and it was satisfied with his independence having regard to the independence criteria as set in Rule 3.13 of the Listing Rules. The Nomination Committee considers that Mr. Ma will continue to bring valuable business experience, knowledge and professionalism to the Board for its efficient and effective functioning and diversity. The Board accepted the Nomination Committee's nomination and recommended Mr. Ma to stand for re-election as an independent non-executive Director by the Shareholders at the AGM. The Board is satisfied that Mr. Ma has the required character, integrity and experience to continue fulfilling the role of an independent non-executive Director and considers Mr. Ma to be independent.

Given the extensive knowledge and experience of each of Mr. Chan and Ms. Zheng, the Nomination Committee and the Board believe that their re-elections as Directors are in the corporate interests of the Company and the Shareholders, and therefore recommend the Shareholders to re-elect each of Mr. Chan and Ms. Zheng as a Director. Separate resolutions will be proposed for their re-elections at the AGM.

The particulars of the above Directors which are required to be disclosed under the Listing Rules are set out in Appendix I to this circular.

GRANTING OF THE ISSUE MANDATE, THE REPURCHASE MANDATE AND THE EXTENSION MANDATE

By ordinary resolutions of the Shareholders passed at annual general meeting on 28 May 2020, the Directors were granted (a) a general unconditional mandate to exercise all powers for and on its behalf to allot, issue and deal with a total number of Shares not exceeding 20% of the total number of Shares in issue as at 28 May 2020; (b) a general unconditional mandate to repurchase Shares with an aggregate amount not exceeding 10% of the aggregate number of issued Shares as at 28 May 2020; and (c) the power to

- 7 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

extend the general mandate mentioned in (a) above by an amount representing the aggregate amount of the Shares repurchased by the Company pursuant to the mandate to repurchase Shares referred to in (b) above.

Each of such mandates will expire at the conclusion of the AGM. In this regard, at the AGM, the following resolutions, amongst others, will be proposed:

  1. to grant the Issue Mandate to the Directors to exercise the powers of the Company to allot and issue and otherwise deal with the additional Shares up to an amount not exceeding 20% of the number of issued Shares as at the date of passing of the resolution at the AGM (details of which are set out as ordinary resolution no. 6(1) in the AGM Notice);
  2. to grant the Repurchase Mandate to the Directors to enable them to repurchase Shares on the Stock Exchange up to an amount not exceeding 10% of the number of the issued Shares as at the date of passing the resolution at the AGM (details of which are set out as ordinary resolution no. 6(2) in the AGM Notice); and
  3. to grant the Extension Mandate to the Directors to increase the total number of Shares which may be allotted and issued under the Issue Mandate by an additional number representing such number of Shares repurchased by the Company under the Repurchase Mandate (if granted to the Directors at the AGM) (details of which are set out as ordinary resolution no. 6(3) in the AGM Notice).

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 1,646,173,000 Shares. On the assumption that there will not be any change to the number of issued Shares between the Latest Practicable Date and the AGM, the number of Shares that may fall to be issued under the Issue Mandate will be 329,234,600 Shares, representing 20% of the issued Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date. On the assumption that there will not be any change to the number of issued Shares between the Latest Practicable Date and the AGM, the number of Shares that may fall to be repurchased under the Repurchase Mandate will be 164,617,300 Shares, representing 10% of the issued Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date.

The Issue Mandate, the Repurchase Mandate and the Extension Mandate, if approved at the AGM, will continue in force until (a) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company held after the AGM; (b) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required to be held by the Articles or other applicable laws; or (c) when revoked or varied by an ordinary resolution passed in a general meeting of the Company prior to the next annual general meeting of the Company, whichever occurs first.

The Directors have no current plans to issue any new Shares or repurchase Shares pursuant to the relevant mandates, other than such Shares which may fall to be allotted and issued upon the exercise of any share options granted under the Share Option Scheme.

- 8 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

In accordance with the Listing Rules, the Company may not make a new issue of Shares or announce a proposed new issue of Shares for a period of 30 days after any purchase by it of Shares, whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise, other than an issue of securities pursuant to the exercise of warrants, share options or similar instruments requiring the Company to issue securities which were outstanding prior to that purchase of its own securities, without the prior approval of the Stock Exchange.

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

PROPOSED FINAL DIVIDEND

As disclosed in the announcement of the Company dated 25 March 2021, the Board recommended the payment of a final dividend of RMB6.73 cents per Share for the year ended 31 December 2020 to the Shareholders subject to the approval of the Shareholders at the AGM. The 2020 Proposed Final Dividend is expected to be paid in cash to the Shareholders on or about Wednesday, 16 June 2021. The Shareholders whose names appear on the register of members of the Company at the close of business on Tuesday, 8 June 2021 will be entitled to the 2020 Proposed Final Dividend.

The 2020 Proposed Final Dividend will be declared in RMB and paid in HK$. The final dividend payable in HK$ will be converted from RMB at the average exchange rate of HK$ against RMB announced by the People's Bank of China on Thursday, 27 May 2021.

Closure of register of members for determining the entitlement to the 2020 Proposed Final Dividend

The register of members of the Company will be closed from Friday, 4 June 2021 to Tuesday, 8 June 2021 (both days inclusive), during which no transfer of Shares will be registered. In order to be eligible for the 2020 Proposed Final Dividend, unregistered holders of Shares should ensure that all transfer documents accompanied by the relevant share certificates must be lodged with the Company's branch share registrar in Hong Kong, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited at Shops 1712-1716, 17th Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen's Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong for registration not later than 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, 3 June 2021.

PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION

To keep up with technological developments and to provide flexibility to the Company in relation to the conduct of general meetings, the Board proposes to amend the Articles to (a) allow general meetings to be held as an electronic meeting (also referred to as a virtual general meeting) or as a hybrid meeting where the Shareholders may participate by electronic means in addition to by attending the meeting physically, and (b) introduce a more flexible means of approval in respect of written resolutions of the Board.

In addition, the Board proposes to amend the Articles to explicitly set out, among other things, related powers of the Board and the chairman of the meeting in relation to the conduct of general meetings, including making arrangements for attendance at the

- 9 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

general meetings, ensuring the security and orderly conduct of the general meetings, adjourning general meetings, changing the venue or electronic facilities of meetings, and dealing with unruly behaviour and other disruptions at general meetings.

The Board also proposes certain minor house-keeping amendments to the Articles for the purpose of clarifying existing practices and making consequential amendments in line with the Proposed Amendments.

Details of the Proposed Amendments are set out in Appendix III to this circular.

The legal advisers of the Company have confirmed that the Proposed Amendments conform with the requirements of the Listing Rules and the laws of the Cayman Islands respectively.

In light of the Stock Exchange's encouragement of use of technology for general meetings to maximise shareholder participation and considering the geographical spread of the Shareholders, notwithstanding that the Proposed Amendments in relation to hosting of an electronic meeting are unusual for a Hong Kong company listed on the Stock Exchange, the Board considers that the Proposed Amendments are in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. The Board confirms that there is nothing unusual about the Proposed Amendments for a company listed in Hong Kong.

The Proposed Amendments are prepared in the English language. The Chinese translation of the Articles is for reference only. In case there are any inconsistencies between the English version and the Chinese version, the English version shall prevail.

ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

The AGM will be held at United Conference Centre, 10/F., United Centre, 95 Queensway, Admiralty, Hong Kong on Thursday, 27 May 2021 at 2:30 p.m., at which, inter alia, (a) ordinary resolutions will be proposed to the Shareholders to consider the re-election of retiring Directors, the granting of the Issue Mandate, the Repurchase Mandate and the Extension Mandate, and the payment of the 2020 Proposed Final Dividend; and (b) special resolution will be proposed to the Shareholders to consider the Proposed Amendments. The AGM Notice is set out on pages 41 to 46 of this circular.

Closure of register of members for determining the eligibility of the Shareholders to attend and vote at the AGM

The register of members of the Company will be closed from Monday, 24 May 2021 to Thursday, 27 May 2021 (both days inclusive), during such period no transfer of Shares will be registered.

APPENDIX II EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

This Appendix serves as the explanatory statement required under Rule 10.06(1)(b) of the Listing Rules to provide you with the information necessary for your consideration of the proposed Repurchase Mandate to be granted to the Directors.

LISTING RULES RELATING TO THE REPURCHASE OF SECURITIES

The Listing Rules permit companies whose primary listings are on the Stock Exchange to repurchase their shares on the Stock Exchange and any other stock exchange on which the securities of the company are listed and such exchange is recognised by the Securities and Futures Commission of Hong Kong subject to certain restrictions. Among such restrictions, the Listing Rules provide that the shares of such company must be fully paid up and all repurchase of shares by such company must be approved in advance by an ordinary resolution of shareholders, either by way of a general repurchase mandate or by specific approval of a particular transaction.

SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the total number of issued Shares is 1,646,173,000.

Subject to the passing of the relevant ordinary resolution and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased prior to the AGM, the Company will be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase a maximum of 164,617,300 Shares (representing not more than 10% of the number of issued Shares as at the date of passing the ordinary resolution to approve the Repurchase Mandate).

REASONS FOR REPURCHASES

The Directors believe that it is in the corporate interests of the Company and the Shareholders that they should have a general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Company to repurchase Shares in the market. Such repurchases 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 where the Directors believe that such repurchases will benefit the Company and the Shareholders.

FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

In repurchasing Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with its Articles, the Listing Rules and the applicable laws and regulations of the Cayman Islands.

A listed company is prohibited from repurchasing its own securities 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. Under the applicable laws and regulations of the Cayman Islands, any repurchase by the Company may be made out of the profits or share premium account of the Company or out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of Shares made for the purpose of the repurchase. Any premium payable on a redemption or purchase over the par value of the Shares to be purchased

- 16 -

APPENDIX II EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

must be provided for out of profits of the Company or from sums standing to the credit of the Company's share premium account. Subject to the provisions of the applicable laws and regulations of the Cayman Islands, a repurchase may also be made out of capital.

On the basis of the current financial position of the Company as disclosed in its annual report for the year ended 31 December 2020 and taking into account the Company's current working capital position, the Directors consider that, if the Repurchase Mandate is exercised in full, it may have a material adverse effect on the Company's working capital and/or gearing position as compared with the financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2020 (being the date to which the latest audited financial statements of the Company have been made up). However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the Company's working capital requirements or the gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

GENERAL

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

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, their close associates, currently intends to sell any Shares to the Company in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

No core connected person has notified the Company that he or she has a present intention to sell Shares to the Company, or have undertaken not to do so, in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

TAKEOVERS CODE

If as a result of a repurchase of the Shares, 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 the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (as interpreted according to 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 the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Sze Ming Limited directly held 1,200,000,000 Shares, representing approximately 72.90% of the total number of Shares in issue of the Company. Sze Ming Limited is wholly-owned by Chan S. M. Michael Family Trust. Mr. Chan is the settlor, protector and a discretionary beneficiary of Chan S. M. Michael Family Trust. IQ EQ (BVI) Limited is the trustee of Chan S. M. Michael Family Trust. Accordingly, Mr. Chan is deemed to be interested in 1,200,000,000 Shares held by Sze Ming Limited, representing approximately 72.90% of the total number of Shares in issue of the Company, pursuant to the SFO.

- 17 -

APPENDIX II EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

In the event that the Directors exercise in full the Repurchase Mandate, on the basis that there were 1,646,173,000 Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date and assuming there is no other change in the total number of Shares in issue of the Company and the number of Shares held by Sze Ming Limited, the interest of each of Mr. Chan and IQ EQ (BVI) Limited in the shareholding of the Company would be increased to approximately 81.00% of the reduced total number of Shares and such increase would not give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under the Takeovers Code. The Directors have no present intention to repurchase the Shares to the extent which would trigger the obligations under the Takeovers Code or result in less than 25% of the Shares being held by the public.

To the best knowledge and belief of the Directors, the Directors are not aware of any Shareholder or group of Shareholders acting in concert who may become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code as a consequence of any repurchases pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate.
