LETTER FROM THE BOARD

GENERAL MANDATE TO ISSUE SECURITIES

In order to ensure flexibility and give discretion to the Directors, in the event that it becomes desirable for the Company to issue any new securities, approval is to be sought from the Shareholders, pursuant to the Listing Rules, for the General Mandate to issue securities. At the Annual General Meeting, an ordinary resolution no. 9(A) will be proposed to grant the General Mandate to the Directors to exercise the powers of the Company to allot, issue and/or otherwise deal with the additional securities of the Company not exceeding 20% of the number of issued Shares as at the date of passing of the resolution in relation to the General Mandate. The General Mandate shall be limited by the applicable laws, rules and requirements of the Stock Exchange as amended from time to time, including the restrictions for using the General Mandate to issue (i) securities convertible into new Shares for cash consideration, if the initial conversion price of such convertible securities is lower than the Benchmarked Price (as hereinafter defined) of the Shares at the time of the relevant placing; and (ii) warrants, options or similar rights to subscribe for new Shares or securities convertible into new Shares for cash consideration.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were 1,838,650,963 Shares which have been fully paid. Subject to the passing of the ordinary resolution no. 9(A) and on the basis that no further securities are issued or repurchased after the Latest Practicable Date and up to the date of the Annual General Meeting, the Company will be allowed to issue a maximum of 367,730,192 Shares (whether by way of Shares or otherwise).

In addition, subject to a separate approval of ordinary resolution no. 9(C), the number of Shares purchased by the Company under ordinary resolution no. 9(B) will also be added to extend the General Mandate as mentioned in ordinary resolution no. 9(A), provided that such additional value shall represent up to 10% of the number of issued Shares as at the date of passing the resolutions in relation to the General Mandate and Repurchase Mandate. The Directors wish to state that they have no immediate plans to issue any new securities of the Company pursuant to the General Mandate.

REPURCHASE MANDATE TO REPURCHASE SHARES

In addition, an ordinary resolution will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to approve the granting of the Repurchase Mandate to the Directors to exercise the powers of the Company to repurchase Shares representing up to 10% of the number of issued Shares as at the date of passing of the resolution in relation to the Repurchase Mandate.

An explanatory statement required by the Listing Rules to be sent to the Shareholders in connection with the proposed Repurchase Mandate is set out in Appendix II to this circular. This explanatory statement contains all information reasonably necessary to enable the Shareholders to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the relevant resolution at the Annual General Meeting.

RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

In accordance with Article 104 of the Articles of Association, Mr. Cheung Tak On, Mr. Wang Zhigao and Ms. Zhu Anna Dezhen shall retire by rotation, and being eligible, offered themselves for re-election at the Annual General Meeting.
