TO ISSUE AND REPURCHASE SHARES

RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

AND

NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

INTRODUCTION

The primary purpose of this circular is to provide you with information regarding the resolutions to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting and to give you notice of the Annual General Meeting. Resolutions to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting include, inter alia: (a) ordinary resolutions on the proposed grant of each of the Issue Mandate, the Repurchase Mandate and the Extension Mandate; and (b) ordinary resolutions relating to the proposed re-election of the Directors.

ISSUE MANDATE

At the Annual General Meeting, an ordinary resolution will be proposed that the Directors be granted the Issue Mandate, i.e. a general and unconditional mandate to allot, issue and deal with new Shares up to 20% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution. As at the Latest Practicable Date, a total of 915,000,000 Shares were in issue. Subject to the passing of the proposed resolution granting the Issue Mandate to the Directors and on the basis that no Shares will be issued or repurchased by the Company prior to the Annual General Meeting, the Company will be allowed under the Issue Mandate to issue a maximum of 183,000,000 Shares.

REPURCHASE MANDATE AND EXTENSION MANDATE

At the Annual General Meeting, an ordinary resolution will also be proposed to give the Directors the Repurchase Mandate, i.e. a general and unconditional mandate to exercise all powers of the Company to repurchase, on the Stock Exchange, or on any other stock exchange on which the Shares may be listed, Shares up to a maximum of 10% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution. In addition, an ordinary resolution regarding the Extension Mandate will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to authorise the increase in the total number of new Shares which may be allotted and issued under the Issue Mandate by an additional number representing such number of Shares actually repurchased under the Repurchase Mandate.

The Repurchase Mandate and the Issue Mandate would expire at the earliest of: (a) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; or (b) the end of the period within which the Company is required by the Companies Law or the Articles to hold its next annual general meeting; or (c) when revoked or varied by ordinary resolution(s) of the Shareholders in a general meeting prior to the next annual general meeting of the Company.

Under the Listing Rules, the Company is required to give to its Shareholders all information which is reasonably necessary to enable Shareholders to make an informed decision as to whether to vote for or against the resolution in respect of the Repurchase Mandate at the Annual General Meeting. An explanatory statement for such purpose is set out in the Appendix I to this circular.

RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

According to Article 108(A) of the Articles, at each annual general meeting, one third of the Directors for the time being, or if their number is not three or a multiple of three, then the number nearest to but not less than one-third, shall retire from office by rotation provided that every Director, including those appointed for a specific term, shall be subject to retirement by rotation at least once every three years. A retiring Director shall be eligible for re-election. The Company at the general meeting at which a Director retires may fill the vacated office.

According to Article 108(B) of the Articles, the Directors to retire by rotation shall include (so far as necessary to obtain the number required) any Director who wishes to retire and not to offer himself for re-election. Any further Directors so to retire shall be those who have been longest in office since their last re-election or appointment and so that as between persons who became or were last re-elected Directors on the same day those to retire shall (unless they otherwise agree among themselves) be determined by lot.

By virtue of Articles 108(A) and 108(B) of the Articles, Mr. Hui Tsz Wai, Mr. Ji Zhongliang and Prof. Tao Xiaoming will retire as Directors at the Annual General Meeting, and Mr. Hui Tsz Wai and Prof. Tao Xiaoming, being eligible, will offer themselves for re-election at the Annual General Meeting, Mr. Ji Zhongliang has informed the Board that he will retire as a Director and will not offer himself for re-election at the Annual General Meeting.

Recommendations to the Board for the proposal for re-election of each of Mr. Hui Tsz Wai as an executive Director and Prof. Tao Xiaoming as an independent non-executive Director were made by the nomination committee of the Board (''Nomination Committee''), after having considered a range of diversity perspectives including but not limited to gender, age, cultural and educational background, professional experience, skills, knowledge and length of service, as set out in the board diversity policy of the Company.

Particulars of Mr. Hui Tsz Wai and Prof. Tao Xiaoming are set out in Appendix II to this circular.

Recommendation of the Nomination Committee with respect to the Independent Non-executive Director subject to Re-election at the Annual General Meeting

The Nomination Committee had assessed and reviewed the written confirmation of independence of Prof. Tao Xiaoming, the independent non-executive Director who has offered herself for re-election at the Annual General Meeting based on the independence criteria as set out in Rule 3.13 of the Listing Rules and are satisfied that she remains independent in accordance with Rule 3.13 of the Listing Rules. In addition, the Nomination Committee had evaluated her performance and is of the view that she has provided valuable contributions to the Company and has demonstrated her abilities to provide independent, balanced and objective view to the Company's affairs.

The Nomination Committee is also of the view that Prof. Tao Xiaoming would bring to the Board her own perspective, skills and experience, as further described in her biography in Appendix II to this circular.

Based on the board diversity policy adopted by the Company, the Nomination Committee considers that Prof. Tao Xiaoming can contribute to the diversity of the Board, in particular, with her strong and diversified educational background and professional experience in her expertise, including in-depth knowledge in the textile industries.

Therefore, the Board, with the recommendation of the Nomination Committee, has nominated Prof. Tao Xiaoming for re-election as independent non-executive Director at the Annual General Meeting.

ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN

At the Annual General Meeting, ordinary resolutions will be proposed to approve, among other matters, the following:

  • (a) the proposed grant of the Issue Mandate, Repurchase Mandate and Extension Mandate; and

  • (b) the proposed re-election of Directors.

Whether or not you are able to attend the Annual General Meeting in person, you are requested to complete and return the form of proxy in accordance with the instructions printed thereon as soon as possible and in any event not later than 48 hours before the time for the Annual General Meeting (i.e., at or before 2:30 p.m. on 1 May 2021 (Hong Kong time)) or any adjournment thereof. Completion and return of the form of proxy will not preclude you from attending and voting in person at the Annual General Meeting or any adjournment thereof should you so wish.

VOTING AT THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

Pursuant to Rule 13.39 of the Listing Rules, all votes of the Shareholders at the general meetings must be taken by poll. The chairman of the Annual General Meeting will therefore demand a poll for every resolution put to the vote of the Annual General Meeting pursuant to article 72 of the Articles. An announcement on the poll vote results will be made by the Company after the Annual General Meeting in the manner prescribed under Rule 13.39(5) of the Listing Rules.

RECOMMENDATION

The Directors believe that the proposed grant of the Issue Mandate, the Repurchase Mandate and the Extension Mandate and the re-election of Directors are beneficial to the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

The Directors believe that an exercise of the Issue Mandate will enable the Company to take advantage of market conditions to raise additional capital for the Company.

The Repurchase Mandate may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value per Share and/or earnings per Share and will only be exercised when the Directors believe that repurchases of Shares will benefit the Company and the Shareholders.

An exercise of the Repurchase Mandate in full may have a material adverse impact on the working capital and/or gearing position of the Company compared with that as at 31 December 2020, being the date of its latest audited consolidated financial statements. The Directors do not, however, intend to make any repurchase in circumstances that would have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing of the Company.

Accordingly, the Directors recommend the Shareholders to vote in favour of the ordinary resolutions for approving the grant of the Issue Mandate, the Repurchase Mandate and the Extension Mandate and the re-election of Directors at the Annual General Meeting.

CLOSURE OF REGISTER OF MEMBERS

For determination of the entitlement to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting, the transfer books and register of members will be closed from 28 April 2021 to 3 May 2021, both days inclusive, during which period no transfer of shares will be effected. In order to qualify for attending and voting at the Annual General Meeting, all transfers accompanied by the relevant share certificates must be lodged with the Company's Hong Kong branch share registrar, Boardroom Share Registrars (HK) Limited at 2103B, 21/F, 148 Electric Road, North Point, Hong Kong not later than 4:30 p.m. on 27 April 2021.

For determination of the entitlement to the proposed final dividend, conditional upon the passing of the resolution approving the declaration of the proposed final dividend at the Annual General Meeting, the transfer books and register of members will be closed from 10 May 2021 to 12 May 2021, both days inclusive, during which period no transfer of shares will be effected. In order to qualify for the proposed final dividend, all transfers accompanied by the relevant share certificates must be lodged with the Company's Hong Kong branch share registrar, Boardroom Share Registrars (HK) Limited at the address stated above not later than 4:30 p.m. on 7 May 2021.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Your attention is drawn to the additional information set out in the appendices to this circular.

Yours faithfully,

For and on behalf of the Board of

Texhong Textile Group Limited

Hong Tianzhu

Chairman

This Appendix I serves as an explanatory statement, as required by the Listing Rules, to provide the Shareholders with all the requisite information to enable them to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the ordinary resolution to approve the grant of the Repurchase Mandate to the Directors.

1. LISTING RULES RELATING TO THE REPURCHASE OF SHARES

The Listing Rules permit companies whose primary listing is 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.

2. SHARE CAPITAL

As at Latest Practicable Date, there were a total of 915,000,000 Shares in issue.

Subject to the passing of the proposed resolution granting the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased prior to the Annual General Meeting, the Company will be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase a maximum of 91,500,000 Shares which represents 10% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of passing such resolution.

3. REASONS FOR THE REPURCHASE

The Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole to seek a general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Company to repurchase the Shares on the Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange on which the Shares are listed. Share repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value per Share and/or earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such repurchase will benefit the Company and the Shareholders.

4. FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

In repurchasing the Company's securities, the Company may only apply funds legally available for the purpose in accordance with the Company's memorandum of association, the Articles, the Companies Law and other applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

Taking into account the current working capital position of the Company, the Directors consider that, if the Repurchase Mandate were to be exercised in full, it might have a material adverse effect on the working capital and/or the gearing position of the Company as compared with the position as at 31 December 2020, being the date of its latest audited consolidated financial statements. However, the Directors do not intend to make any repurchases to such anextent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements or the gearing position of the Company which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

5. SHARE PRICES

The highest and lowest prices at which the Shares have been traded on the Stock Exchange in each of the twelve calendar months immediately preceding (and including) the Latest Practicable Date are as follows:

6. THE TAKEOVERS CODE AND MINIMUM PUBLIC HOLDING

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

On the basis of the respective shareholding held by Mr. Hong Tianzhu, Trade Partner Investments Limited and Wisdom Grace Investments Limited (all being the companies controlled by Mr. Hong Tianzhu and/or Ms. Zhao Zhiyang (the spouse of an executive Director, Mr. Zhu Yongxiang), two of the substantial shareholders) as at the Latest Practicable Date set out below, the exercise in full of the Repurchase Mandate will not result in any of Mr. Hong Tianzhu, Ms. Zhao Zhiyang, Mr. Zhu Yongxiang, Trade Partner Investments Limited and Wisdom Grace Investments Limited (being presumed parties acting in concert under the Takeovers Code) obliged to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code. In addition, the Directors are not aware of any consequence which would arise under the Takeovers Code as a consequence of any repurchases pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate.

  • 2. These 392,842,400 Shares were registered in the name of and beneficially owned by New Green Group Limited, the entire issued share capital of which is beneficially owned by Texhong Group Holdings Limited.

  • 3. These 151,900,000 Shares were registered in the name of and beneficially owned by Trade Partner Investments Limited, the entire issued share capital of which is beneficially owned as to 57.44% by Mr. Hong Tianzhu (an executive Director) through New Green Group Limited and as to 42.56% by Ms. Zhao Zhiyang (the spouse of an executive Director) through Wisdom Grace Investments Limited.

  • 4. These 68,000,000 Shares were registered in the name of and beneficially owned by Wisdom Grace Investments Limited, the entire issued share capital of which is beneficially owned by Ms. Zhao Zhiyang. As Ms. Zhao Zhiyang and Mr. Zhu Yongxiang, an executive Director, have a spousal relationship, Mr. Zhu Yongxiang was deemed to be interested in the Shares in which Ms. Zhao Zhiyang was interested by virtue of the SFO.

The Directors have no intention to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent that will result in the number of Shares in the hands of public falling below the prescribed minimum percentage of 25%.

7. SHARE REPURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY

The Company had not purchased any of its Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) in the six months immediately preceding the Latest Practicable Date.

8. GENERAL

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 to sell any Shares to the Company if the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.
