Such mandates will lapse at the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting.

In order to give the Company the flexibility to repurchase Shares and issue Shares if and when appropriate, ordinary resolutions will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to approve:

  1. the granting of the Share Repurchase Mandate to the Directors to purchase Shares on the Stock Exchange of not exceeding 10% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of passing of the ordinary resolution as set out in item 6 of the notice of the Annual General Meeting (i.e. 1,474,567,078 Shares, on the basis that the total number of issued Shares will remain unchanged on the date of the Annual General Meeting);

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON

THE SHARE REPURCHASE MANDATE

The following is an explanatory statement required by Rule 10.06(b) of the Listing Rules to provide the Shareholders with information reasonably necessary to enable such Shareholders to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the ordinary resolution to approve the granting of the Share Repurchase Mandate.

1. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the total number of issued Shares is 14,745,670,786.

Subject to the passing of the ordinary resolution set out in item 6 of the notice of the Annual General Meeting in respect of the granting of the Share Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that the total number of issued Shares will remain unchanged on the date of the Annual General Meeting, being 14,745,670,786 Shares, the Directors would be authorized under the Share Repurchase Mandate to repurchase, during the period in which the Share Repurchase Mandate remains in force, up to 1,474,567,078 Shares, representing approximately 10% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of the Annual General Meeting.

2. REASONS FOR SHARE REPURCHASE

The Directors believe that the granting of the Share Repurchase Mandate is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Repurchases of the Shares may, depending on the 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 a repurchase will benefit the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

3. FUNDING OF SHARE REPURCHASE

In repurchasing Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with its memorandum and Articles of Association, the laws of the Cayman Islands and/or any other applicable laws, as the case may be.

4. IMPACT OF SHARE REPURCHASE

There might be a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company (as compared with the position disclosed in the audited accounts contained in the annual report of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2020) in the event that the Share Repurchase Mandate was to be carried out in full at any time during the proposed repurchase period. However, the Directors do not intend to exercise the Share Repurchase Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

6. GENERAL

To the best of the knowledge of the Directors having made all reasonable enquiries, none of the Directors nor any of their respective close associates (as defined in the Listing Rules) have any present intention, in the event that the granting of the Share Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders, to sell any Shares to the Company.

The Company has not been notified by any core connected persons (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company that they have a present intention to sell any Shares to the Company, or that they have undertaken not to sell any Shares held by them to the Company, in the event that the granting of the Share Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange to exercise the power of the Company to make repurchases of Shares pursuant to the Share Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

APPENDIX II

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON

THE SHARE REPURCHASE MANDATE

7. TAKEOVERS CODE

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

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Rise Grand Group Limited controls Heroic Zone Investments Limited's exercise of voting rights attached to the Shares it holds, and Heroic Zone Investments Limited in turn has the power to control Chang Yun Holdings Limited, High Zenith Limited and Sure Pass Holdings Limited 's exercise of their respective voting rights attached to the Shares they respectively hold. Therefore, to the best knowledge of the Company, as at the Latest Practicable Date, Rise Grand Group Limited, Heroic Zone Investments Limited, Chang Yun Holdings Limited, High Zenith Limited and Sure Pass Holdings Limited will be together entitled to directly and indirectly exercise or control the exercise of the voting power attached to 5,029,376,978 Shares, representing approximately 34.11% of the issued Shares.

Therefore, the abovementioned parties are the controlling shareholders of the Company (as defined in the Listing Rules). In the event that the Directors exercise the proposed Share Repurchase Mandate in full, the shareholding of the abovementioned parties would be increased to approximately 37.90% of the issued Shares.

On the basis of such figures, if the Share Repurchase Mandate is exercised in full by the Company and assuming that abovementioned parties do not receive, acquire or dispose of any Shares, the consequential percentage increase in their shareholding after such repurchase may give rise to an obligation for the abovementioned parties and parties acting in concert with them to make a mandatory offer to the Shareholders under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

Save as disclosed above, 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 Share Repurchase Mandate.

8. REPURCHASE OF SHARES MADE BY THE COMPANY

During the six months prior to the Latest Practicable Date, the Company had not repurchased any of the Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise).
