LETTER FROM THE BOARD

2. GENERAL MANDATES TO ISSUE SHARES AND TO BUY BACK SHARES

At the 2020 AGM, the Directors were granted general mandates (i) to allot and issue Shares not exceeding 20% of the total number of Shares in issue as at the date of passing of the relevant resolutions; and (ii) to buy back Shares up to 10% of the total number of Shares in issue as at the date of the passing of the relevant resolutions. Such mandates will be expired at the conclusion of the 2021 AGM. In order to give the Company the flexibility to issue Shares and buy back Shares, ordinary resolutions will be proposed at the 2021 AGM as follows:

  1. to grant a general and unconditional Issue Mandate to the Directors to exercise the powers of the Company to allot and issue Shares not exceeding 20% of the total number of Shares in issue as at the date of passing the relevant resolution. The Issue Mandate will expire upon whichever is the earliest of (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Articles or any applicable laws of the Cayman Islands to be held; or (iii) the date on which the authority set out in this resolution is revoked, varied or renewed by an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the total numbers of Shares in issue is 3,180,696,853 Shares. Assuming no further Shares will be issued or bought back prior to the date of the 2021 AGM, the Directors will be authorised to issue up to 636,139,370 Shares under the Issue Mandate;
  2. to grant a general and unconditional Buy-back Mandate to the Directors to exercise all powers of the Company to buy back issued Shares subject to the criteria set out in this circular. Under the Buy-back Mandate, the maximum number of Shares that the Company may buy back shall not exceed 10% of the total number of Shares in issue as at the date of passing the resolution. As of the Latest Practicable Date, the total number of Shares in issue is 3,180,696,853 Shares. Subject to the passing of the proposed ordinary resolution approving the granting of the Buy-back Mandate and no further Shares are issued or bought back prior to the 2021 AGM, the Company would be allowed under the Buy-back Mandate to buy back a maximum of 318,069,685 Shares, being 10% of the total number of Shares in issue as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution thereof. The Buy-back Mandate will expire upon whichever is the earliest of (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Articles or any applicable laws of the Cayman Islands to be held; or (iii) the date on which the authority set out in this resolution is revoked, varied or renewed by an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting; and
  3. subject to the passing of the aforesaid ordinary resolutions of the Issue Mandate and the Buy-back Mandate, to extend the number of Shares to be issued and allotted under the Issue Mandate by an additional number representing such number of Shares bought back under the Buy-back Mandate.

- 4 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Directors have no immediate plans to allot, issue, or deal with any new Shares other than Shares which may fall to be issued under the share option scheme(s) of the Company or pursuant to any scrip dividend scheme or under similar arrangement which may be approved by the Shareholders from time to time.

In accordance with the Listing Rules, an explanatory statement is set out in Appendix I to this circular to provide you with requisite information for considering the proposal of authorisation to the Directors of the Buy-back Mandate.

3. RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Pursuant to article 87 of the Articles, at each annual general meeting, one-third of the directors for the time being (or, if their number is not a multiple of three (3), the number nearest to but not less than one-third) shall retire from office by rotation provided that every director shall be subject to retirement at the annual general meeting at least once every three years. Given the fact that Mr. KONG Jianmin, Mr. CAI Fengjia and Mr. LEE Ka Sze, Carmelo JP had held the longest term of office since the last re-election, they shall be subject to retirement and re-election at the 2021 AGM and being eligible, offer themselves for re-election.

Pursuant to Rule A.4.3 of Appendix 14 of the Listing Rules, independence shall be considered if the independent non-executive director has been serving for more than nine years. Mr. LEE Ka Sze, Carmelo JP joined the Company as an independent non-executive Director in 2007 and has been serving for 13 years up till now. Despite his long term of service, however, the Board is of the view that his individual independence should not be determined solely by the length of service. Mr. LEE Ka Sze, Carmelo JP made positive contributions to the Company by proposing independent, constructive and well-founded opinions over his term of office, complemented with other Directors by his professional expertise, extensive experience and background in legal sector, improved the overall competence, experience and perspective of the Board, and facilitated the diversity of the Board. His succession in service as Director will bring about certain stability to the Board. In addition, it will also be of great benefit to the Board to maintain its members who have rendered long term service to the Company and are familiar with the Group's business and its market situation. The Board will also consider that Mr. LEE Ka Sze, Carmelo JP can still continue to demonstrate a high degree of independent judgment after taking into consideration of the factors that may affect his independence pursuant to Rule 3.13 of the Listing Rules, hence, he is considered to be independent.

Details of the retiring Directors as disclosed pursuant to the requirements under Rule 13.74 and Rule 13.51(2) of the Listing Rules are set out in Appendix II to this circular.

4. 2021 AGM

The 2021 AGM will be held at Verve, 5/F, W Guangzhou, 26 Xian Cun Road, Pearl River New Town, Tianhe District, Guangzhou, PRC at 2 : 00 p.m. on Thursday, 3 June 2021 at which resolutions will be proposed for the purpose of considering and if thought fit, approving the resolutions proposed in this circular. The notice of the 2021 AGM is set out on pages 13 to 17 of this circular.

- 5 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

A proxy form for use at the 2021 AGM is enclosed. The proxy form can also be downloaded from the Company's website (www.kwggroupholdings.com) or the HKEXnews website (www.hkexnews.hk). Whether or not you are able to attend the 2021 AGM, you are requested to complete the accompanying proxy form in accordance with the instructions printed thereon and return it to the Company's Hong Kong branch share registrar, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited, at 17M Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen's Road East, Hong Kong as soon as possible and in any event not later than 48 hours before the time appointed for the holding of the 2021 AGM (i.e. not later than 2 : 00 p.m. on Tuesday, 1 June 2021) or any adjournment thereof. Completion and return of the proxy form will not preclude you from attending and voting in person at the 2021 AGM or any adjournment thereof should you so wish.

5. 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, 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. Accordingly, the chairman of the 2021 AGM will exercise his right under article 66 of the Articles to demand a poll on each of the resolutions to be proposed at the 2021 AGM. An announcement on the poll results will be published by the Company after the 2021 AGM in the manner prescribed under Rule 13.39(5) of the Listing Rules.

6. RECOMMENDATION

The Directors consider that the resolutions as set out in the notice of the 2021 AGM are in the best interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, the Board recommend that all Shareholders to vote in favour of all the resolutions set out in the notice of the 2021 AGM.

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR THE

BUY-BACK MANDATE

This appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by Rule 10.06(1)(b) of the Listing Rules, to provide requisite information to you for your consideration of the proposal of authorisation to the Directors of the Buy-back Mandate.

1. SHARE CAPITAL

As of the Latest Practicable Date, there was a total number of 3,180,696,853 Shares in issue.

Subject to the passing of ordinary resolution to approve the Buy-back Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or bought back and/or canceled prior to the 2021 AGM, the Company would be allowed under the Buy-back Mandate to buy back a maximum of 318,069,685 Shares, representing no more than 10% of the Shares in issue as at Latest Practicable Date.

2. REASON FOR SHARE BUY-BACKS

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

3. FUNDING OF SHARES BUY-BACKS

In buying back Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with the Articles, the Listing Rules and applicable laws of the Cayman Islands. The laws of the Cayman Islands and the Articles provide that payment for a share buy-back may only be made out of profits or the proceeds of a new issue of shares made for such purpose or subject to the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands, out of capital of the Company. The amount of premium payable on buy-back of shares may only be paid out of either the profits or out of the share premium account of the Company or subject to the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands, out of capital of the Company.

The Directors consider that there might be a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company, as compared with the position disclosed in its audited financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2020 contained in the 2020 annual report of the Company, in the event that the Buy-back Mandate was to be carried out in full at any time during the proposed buy-back period. However, 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 requirements of the Company or the gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

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

No core connected person of the Company has notified the Company of a present intention to sell Shares to the Company and no such person has undertaken not to do so, in the event that the Buy-back Mandate of the Company is granted by the Shareholders.

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR THE

BUY-BACK MANDATE

6. THE TAKEOVERS CODE

A buy-back of Shares by the Company may result in an increase in the proportionate interests of a substantial shareholder of the Company in the voting rights of the Company, which could give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code.

As of the Latest Practicable Date, to the best of the knowledge and belief of the Company, Plus Earn Consultants Limited and its associates were beneficially interested in approximately 62.75% of the issued share capital of the Company. In the event that the Buy-back Mandate is exercised in full and no further Shares are issued during the proposed bought back period, the shareholdings of Plus Earn Consultants Limited and its associates in the Company would be increased to approximately 69.72% of the issued share capital of the Company and such increase would not give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under the Takeovers Code.

The Company has no intention to exercise the Buy-back Mandate to such extent that it would give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under the Takeovers Code or result in the amount of shares held by the public being reduced to less than 25% of the issued share capital of the Company.

7. SHARE BUY-BACK MADE BY THE COMPANY

The Company bought back a total of 174,000 Shares on the Stock Exchange during the six months immediately preceding the Latest Practicable Date, details of which are as follows:
