Subject to the terms and conditions of the Bonds, each Bond shall entitle the holder to convert such Bond into Shares credited as fully paid at any time during the Conversion Period referred to below.

Subject to and upon compliance with the terms and conditions of the Bonds, the Conversion Right in respect of a Bond may be exercised, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time on or after May 23, 2021 up to the close of business on the seventh day prior to the Maturity Date (both days inclusive) or, if such Bond shall have been called for redemption by the Company before the Maturity Date, then up to the close of business on a date no later than 15 days (both days inclusive) prior to the date fixed for redemption thereof or if notice requiring redemption has been given by the relevant holder of such Bond then up to the close of business (at the place aforesaid) on the business day prior to the giving of such notice in respect of the Bonds held by such holder of the Bonds.

Initially HK$63.45 per Share, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain prescribed events, namely:

  1. if there is an alteration to the nominal value of the Shares as a result of consolidation, subdivision, reclassification or re- designation;
  2. if the Company issues any Shares credited as fully paid to the Shareholders by way of capitalisation of profits or reserves (including any share premium account) and which would not have constituted a capital distribution;

- 12 -

  1. in the case of an issue of Shares by way of a scrip dividend where the aggregate Current Market Price of such Shares exceeds the amount of the relevant cash dividend (or relevant part thereof) and which would not have constituted a capital distribution;

- 13 -

Adjustment upon a Change of Control

  2. if the Company otherwise determines that an adjustment should be made to the Conversion Price.

The Conversion Price may not be reduced so that, on conversion of the Bonds, Shares would fall to be issued at a discount to their par value.

No adjustment will be made to the Conversion Price when Shares or other securities are issued, offered or granted to employees of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company pursuant to any share option scheme that is in compliance with the Listing Rules, unless such issuance would result in the total number of Shares which may be issued upon exercise of such Shares or other securities granted during the 12 months prior to such issuance representing, in aggregate, over three per cent. of the average number of issued and outstanding Shares during such 12-month period.

In addition, if a Change of Control shall occur, the Company shall give notice of that fact to the Bondholders in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Bonds within seven days after it becomes aware of such Change of Control. Following the giving of such notice, upon any exercise of conversion rights such that the relevant Conversion Date falls within 30 days following a Change of Control, or, if later, 30 days following the date on which the notice of the Change of Control is given to the Bondholders, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted in accordance with the following formula:

NCP =

OCP

"OCP" means the Conversion Price in effect on the relevant Conversion Date;

CONVERSION PRICE AND CONVERSION SHARES

The initial Conversion Price of HK$63.45 per Share represents:

  1. a premium of approximately 35.00% over the last closing price of HK$47.00 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on March 31, 2021 (being the trading day on which the CB Subscription Agreement was signed);
  2. a premium of approximately 27.59% over the average closing price of approximately HK$49.73 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the five consecutive trading days up to and including March 31, 2021; and
  3. a premium of approximately 21.16% over the average closing price of approximately HK$52.37 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the ten consecutive trading days up to and including March 31, 2021.

The initial Conversion Price was determined with reference to the prevailing market price of the Shares and the terms and conditions of the CB Subscription Agreement and was negotiated on an arm's length basis between the Company and the Joint Managers after a book-building exercise.

The number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of any Bonds shall be determined by dividing the principal amount of the Bonds converted by the Conversion Price in effect on the relevant conversion date. Based on the initial Conversion Price of HK$63.45 per Share and assuming full conversion of the Bonds at the initial Conversion Price, the Bonds will be convertible into a maximum of 34,308,715 Conversion Shares, representing:

  1. approximately 7.56% of the existing issued share capital of the Company as at the date of this announcement;
  2. approximately 7.02% of the issued share capital of the Company, as enlarged by the issue of the Conversion Shares upon full conversion of the Bonds (but without taking into account the issue of the Placing Shares); and
  3. approximately 6.67% of the issued share capital of the Company, as enlarged by the issue of the Conversion Shares upon full conversion of the Bonds and the issue of the Placing Shares.

Placing Price

The Placing Price of HK$42.38 per Share represents:

  1. a discount of approximately 9.83% to the closing price of HK$47.00 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on March 31, 2021 (being the last full trading day prior to the signing of the Placing Agreement);

The vision of the Company is to develop TapTap into a leading international game community and platform, which would require substantial and continuous capital investment. For example, as set out in the announcement of the Company dated 27 August

2020, the Group has agreed to further acquire 18.34% equity interest in Yiwan (Shanghai) Network Science and Technology Co., Ltd. (易玩(上海)網絡科技有限公司) ("Yiwan")

(which is the company operating TapTap), increasing the Group's holding of equity interest in Yiwan to 74.12%. The Board therefore considers that the proceeds from the Bonds Issue and the Placing would further strengthen the financial position of the Company, in order to allow the Company to seize the development opportunities in the current challenging global economy.

FUND RAISING ACTIVITIES IN THE PAST TWELVE MONTHS

Save as disclosed below and the proposed Bonds Issue and the Placing as disclosed in this announcement, the Company did not engage in any equity fund raising activities in the last 12 months.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE BONDS ISSUE AND THE PLACING

The Directors are of the view that the Bonds Issue can provide the Company with additional funds at lower funding cost for the purposes of (A) further enhancing the Company's R&D capability and (B) supplementing the Group's working capital for potential opportunities for strategic development in the future. The Issue Price and the Conversion Price were arrived at after arm's length negotiations between the parties to the CB Subscription Agreement with reference to the prevailing trading prices of the Shares and the financial conditions of the Company.

In addition, the Placing is being undertaken to strengthen the Group's financial position and for the long term funding of its expansion and growth plan. The intended use of proceeds is in line with the Group's strategic focus on enhancing our game development capabilities, further enriching our game portfolio and increasing active user base. The Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) also consider that it is in the interest of the Company to broaden the shareholder base and the capital base of the Company.

- 29 -

Accordingly, the Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) consider the terms of (i) the CB Subscription Agreement; (ii) the terms and condition of the Bonds and

  1. the Placing Agreement are fair and reasonable on normal commercial terms and in the interests of the Shareholders and the Company as a whole.

GENERAL MANDATE

By a resolution of the Shareholders passed at the annual general meeting held on 24 June 2020, the Company granted the General Mandate to the Directors to allot and issue up to 20% of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company outstanding as at the date of passing the relevant resolution.

Based on the initial Conversion Price of HK$63.45 and assuming full conversion of the Bonds at the initial Conversion Price, the Bonds will be convertible into a maximum of 34,308,715 Conversion Shares. In addition, the Placing Shares comprise 26,318,000 new Shares. As such, the maximum number of new Shares to be issued following the full conversion of the Bonds and the completion of the Placing is 60,626,715 Shares (with an aggregate nominal value of US$6,062.67).

As at the date of this announcement, no Shares have been issued or committed to be issued (other than the Bonds Issue and the Placing) pursuant to the General Mandate. Therefore, the maximum number of Shares that the Company may issue under the General Mandate is 85,603,700, representing 18.85% of the issued share capital of the Company of 454,112,700 Shares as at the date of this announcement. The Conversion Shares to be issued upon the conversion of the Bonds and the Placing Shares will be allotted and issued pursuant to the General Mandate. As such, the issue of the Bonds and the Placing Shares are not subject to further approval of the Shareholders.

INFORMATION REGARDING THE GROUP

The Group develops and operates quality games in China and overseas, and also operates TapTap, leading game community and platform in China.
