Having considered that the advance of Loan A, Loan B and Loan C would be beneficial to the Group in terms of return (i.e. additional interest income), the Directors consider that the terms of the advance of Loan A, Loan B and Loan C are on normal commercial terms and are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
IMPLICATIONS UNDER THE LISTING RULES
Given (i) Borrower A is the sole shareholder of each of Borrower B and Borrower C; and (ii) Loan A, Loan B and Loan C were advanced within a 12-month period, Loan A, Loan B and Loan C are aggregated for the purpose of determining the highest applicable percentage ratio under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.

As the highest applicable percentage ratio as defined under the Listing Rules in respect of the advance of Loan A, Loan B and Loan C (on an aggregated basis) exceeds 5% and is lower than 25%, the advance of Loan A, Loan B and Loan C (on an aggregated basis) constitutes a discloseable transaction of the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules and is subject to notification and announcement requirements under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.
