LETTER FROM THE BOARD

1. INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this circular is, among other things, to provide you the notice of the EGM and with the information on the resolution to be considered at the EGM to enable you to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the resolution at the EGM.

2. ADJUSTMENT TO THE EMOLUMENTS OF INDEPENDENT NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY

The existing emolument for each independent non-executive Director of the Company is "RMB125,000 for each Director per year" as considered and approved at the 2017 annual general meeting of the Company.

Considering the development level of the industry, development scale of the Company, the changes in duties of the independent non-executive Directors and the salary level of independent non-executive directors of other listed companies, the Company proposed to adjust the standard of emoluments for independent non-executive Directors with the details set out as follows:

  1. Applicable scope
    All independent non-executive Directors of the Company.
  1. Limits on Emoluments
    1. An independent non-executive Director will be entitled to an annual emolument of HK$250,000 during his/her tenure as a chairman of a special committee of the Board.
    2. An independent non-executive Director will be entitled to an annual emolument of HK$200,000 during his/her tenure as a member of a special committee of the Board.
    3. All emoluments for independent non-executive Directors are subject to tax, and the Company will withhold and pay personal income tax on their behalf collectively in accordance with relevant national laws and regulations.

(III) Payment method

The emoluments will be paid on a pro rata basis in June and December of each year, respectively, in accordance with the terms of the service contract that the relevant Director has entered into with the Company. The payment will be made with the equivalent amounts in RMB translated at the prevailing exchange rates on the dates of payment.

The proposal has been considered and approved at the 25th meeting of the second session of the Board of Directors, and is currently being proposed to the EGM for consideration and approval. The Company will enter into a new service contract with each independent non-executive Director after the aforesaid proposal is considered and approved at the EGM, and the existing service contract will be terminated simultaneously.
