GEM LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

As certain applicable ratios (as defined in the GEM Listing Rules) in respect of the Disposal are more than 5% but less than 25%, the Disposal constitutes a discloseable transaction of the Company under Chapter 19 of the GEM Listing Rules and is therefore subject to the reporting and announcement requirements under Chapter 19 of the GEM Listing Rules.

BACKGROUND

References are made to the announcements of the Company dated 6 October 2015 and 30 October 2015 in relation to, among others, the Acquisition (as defined below).

On 29 September 2015 (after trading hours), Success Century and Golden Eva, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into the sale and purchase agreement (as revised and supplemented by the supplemental agreement dated 30 October 2015) (the "2015 Sale and Purchase Agreement"), pursuant to which Success Century has conditionally agreed to sell and Golden Eva has conditionally agreed to acquire the entire equity interest in and the shareholder's loan of Target Company at a maximum consideration of HK$24,000,000 (the "Acquisition"). The consideration of the Acquisition was satisfied by

  1. Golden Eva issuing promissory note with principal amount of HK$18,000,000 (the "Tranche A Promissory Note"); and (ii) Golden Eva issuing promissory note with principal amount of HK$6,000,000 (the "Tranche B Promissory Note").

    As set out in the 2015 Sale and Purchase Agreement, the maximum amount of consideration to be paid by Golden Eva was up to HK$24,000,000, of which HK$18,000,000 ought to be settled and discharged by Golden Eva in any event, whether or not the balance of the consideration of up to HK$6,000,000 ought to paid would be subject to such possible adjustments that in case the audited consolidated net profit after tax of Finest Corporate for the financial year ending 31 December 2016 (the "PAT for 2016") is less than HK$6,000,000, the balance of the consideration would have to be adjusted downwards by deducting therefrom the sum equivalent to the difference between HK$6,000,000 and the amount representing the actual PAT for 2016, subject to a maximum deduction of HK$6,000,000, and hence, the minimum quantum of the consideration would be HK$18,000,000.

    Based on the unaudited management accounts of Finest Corporate for the year ended 31 December 2016, Finest Corporate recorded a net loss after tax of approximately HK$76,088,982 (subject to audit), which is less than the targeted consolidated net profit after tax of HK$6,000,000. Pursuant to the 2015 Sale and Purchase Agreement, the consideration of HK$24,000,000 under the Acquisition shall be adjusted downwards to the sum of HK$18,000,000 and the Tranche B Promissory Note shall be delivered to Golden Eva for cancellation.

    The Acquisition was completed on 6 November 2015 and the Tranche A Promissory Note and Tranche B Promissory Note were issued thereupon. Success Century had surrendered the Tranche A Promissory Note to Golden Eva on 22 August 2016 in exchange for convertible bonds of the Company in the principal amount of HK$18,000,000 issued by the Company (the "Tranche A Convertible Bond"), and the Tranche A Promissory Note was thereby irrevocably cancelled and revoked. The Tranche A Convertible Bond was issued by the Company on 23 August 2016, but no conversion or redemption of any principal amount of the Tranche A Convertible Bond has ever taken place up to the date of this announcement.
