UPDATE ON THE NUMBER OF RELEVANT SECURITIES IN ISSUE PURSUANT TO RULE 3.8 OF THE TAKEOVERS CODE

The board of directors of TPV wishes to announce that, pursuant to the terms of the 2003 Share Option Scheme, a total of 900,000 2003 Share Options with an exercise price of HK$5.008 were lapsed on 11 October 2019 due to resignation of an employee. As at the date of this announcement, the relevant securities (as defined in Note 4 to Rule 22 of the Takeovers Code) of TPV comprised (i) 2,345,636,139 TPV Shares in issue; (ii) 16,270,000 outstanding Share Options granted under the 2003 Share Option Scheme, each relating to one TPV Share; and (iii) 8,128,000 outstanding Share Options granted under the 2015 Share Option Scheme, each relating to one TPV Share. Save for the aforesaid, TPV has no other relevant securities (as defined in Note 4 to Rule 22 of the Takeovers Code) as at the date of this announcement.

DISCLOSURE OF DEALINGS

Associates of TPV and the Offeror are reminded to disclose their dealings in any relevant securities of TPV.

In accordance with Rule 3.8 of the Takeovers Code, reproduced below is the full text of Note 11 to Rule 22 of the Takeovers Code:

''Responsibilities of stockbrokers, banks and other intermediaries

Stockbrokers, banks and others who deal in any relevant securities of TPV on behalf of clients have a general duty to ensure, so far as they are able, that those clients are aware of the disclosure obligations attaching to associates of the Offeror or TPV and other persons under Rule 22 of the Takeovers Code and that those clients are willing to comply with them. Principal traders and dealers who deal directly with investors should, in appropriate cases, likewise draw attention to the relevant rules under the Takeovers Code. However, this does not apply when the total value of dealings (excluding stamp duty and commission) in any relevant security of TPV undertaken for a client during any 7 day period is less than HK$1 million.

This dispensation does not alter the obligation of principals, associates and other persons themselves to initiate disclosure of their own dealings, whatever total value is involved.

Intermediaries are expected to co-operate with the Executive in its dealings enquiries. Therefore, those who deal in any relevant securities of TPV should appreciate that stockbrokers and other intermediaries will supply the Executive with relevant information as to those dealings, including identities of clients, as part of that co-operation.''
