Dear Sir or Madam,
PROPOSALS FOR GENERAL MANDATES TO ISSUE AND BUY BACK SHARES AND RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS AND NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING GENERAL MANDATES TO ISSUE AND BUY BACK SHARES

June 2014, general and unconditional mandates were given to the directors of the Company (the
- 1 -
"Directors") to issue and buy back shares of the Company (the "Shares") and these general mandates will lapse at the conclusion of the forthcoming annual general meeting ("2015 AGM") unless renewed at that meeting. The Directors believe that a renewal of these general mandates is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. Accordingly, the following separate ordinary resolutions will be proposed at the 2015 AGM to give the Directors general and unconditional mandates to exercise powers of the Company to issue and buy back the Shares:
(i) an ordinary resolution (resolution No. 5) to give the Directors a general and unconditional mandate to allot, issue and otherwise deal with additional Shares up to 20% of the aggregate nominal amount of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of the 2015 AGM (the "Issue Mandate"), equivalent to a maximum of 694,514,292 Shares if there is no change in the issued share capital of the Company prior to the date of the 2015 AGM;
(ii) an ordinary resolution (resolution No. 6) to give the Directors a general and unconditional mandate to buy back Shares up to a maximum of 10% of the aggregate nominal amount of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of the 2015 AGM (the "Buy-back Mandate"), equivalent to a maximum of 347,257,146 Shares if there is no change in the issued share capital of the Company prior to the date of the 2015 AGM; and
(iii) conditional upon the passing of resolutions Nos. 5 and 6 as stated above, an ordinary resolution (resolution No. 7) to extend the Issue Mandate by an amount representing the aggregate nominal amount of Shares bought back by the Company under the Buy-back Mandate.
Details of the abovementioned ordinary resolutions are contained in the notice of the 2015 AGM set out in this document. An explanatory statement, as required by the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities (the "Listing Rules") on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Stock Exchange") to be sent to the shareholders in connection with the Buy-back Mandate, is also set out in the Appendix of this document. This contains all the information reasonably necessary to enable the shareholders of the Company to make an informed decision on whether or not to vote for or against the ordinary resolution to grant to the Directors the Buy-back Mandate at the 2015 AGM. The Directors wish to state that they have no immediate plan to issue or buy back any Shares pursuant to these mandates.
Pursuant to Article 87 of the Articles of Association of the Company (the "Articles of Association"), three Directors, namely, Mr. Hui Wing Mau, Mr. Liu Sai Fei and Mr. Lam Ching Kam (the "Retiring Directors") shall retire from office by rotation at the 2015 AGM.

The following is the explanatory statement required to be sent to the shareholders of the Company under the Listing Rules in connection with the proposed Buy-back Mandate. References in this statement to "Share(s)" mean ordinary share(s) of HK$0.10 each in the share capital of the Company.
1. LISTING RULESThe Listing Rules permit companies with a primary listing on the Stock Exchange to buy back their fully-paid shares on the Stock Exchange subject to certain restrictions, the most important of which are summarized below:
(a) Shareholders' ApprovalShare buy-backs must be approved by shareholders in advance by an ordinary resolution, either by a specific approval or a general mandate to the Directors to make the buy-backs.
(b) Source of fundsShare buy-backs must be made out of funds which are legally available for such purpose in accordance with the Articles of Association and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands in which the Company is incorporated.
(c) Maximum number of Shares to be bought backA maximum of 10% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution approving the proposed Buy-back Mandate may be bought back on the Stock Exchange.
2. SHARE CAPITALAs at 20 April 2015, being the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised of 3,472,571,464 Shares. Subject to the passing of the ordinary resolution approving the Buy-back Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or no Shares are bought back prior to the date of the 2015 AGM, the Directors would be allowed under the Buy-back Mandate to buy back a maximum of 347,257,146 Shares.
3. REASONS FOR SHARE BUY-BACKThe Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to have the Buy-back Mandate to enable the Directors to buy back Shares on the market, and which can give the Company the flexibility to do so if and when appropriate. An exercise of the Buy-back Mandate may, depending on the market conditions and funding arrangement at the time, result in an enhancement of the net assets value per Share and/or earnings per Share. The number(s) and price of Shares to be bought back will be decided by the Directors at the relevant time having regard to the circumstances then pertaining and such buy-back will only be made when the Directors believe that such a buy-back will benefit the Company and its shareholders as a whole.
4. FUNDING OF SHARE BUY-BACK
In buying-back Shares, the Company shall only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with its Articles of Association and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands. It is envisaged that the funds required for any buy-back would be derived from the distributable profit of the Company.
- 6 -
The Directors are aware that there may be a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company (as compared with the position disclosed in the audited financial statements contained in the annual report of the Company for the financial year ended 31 December 2014) in the event that the proposed buy-back of Shares were to be carried out in full at any time during the proposed buy-back period. However, the Directors do not intend to exercise the proposed Buy-back Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse impact on the working capital of the Company or its gearing position which in the opinion of the Directors is from time to time appropriate for the Company.
6. UNDERTAKING
The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that they will exercise the power of the Company to make buy-back pursuant to the Buy-back Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules, the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands and the Articles of Association.
There are no Directors and, to the best of the knowledge of the Directors having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their close associates (as defined in the Listing Rules), who have a present intention, in the event that the proposed Buy-back Mandate is approved by the shareholders of the Company, to sell Shares to the Company.
No core connected person (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company has notified the Company that he/she has a present intention to sell Shares to the Company and no such person has undertaken not to sell any of Shares held by him/her to the Company in the event that the proposed Buy-back Mandate is approved by the shareholders of the Company.
If, on the exercise of the power to buy-back Shares pursuant to the Buy-back Mandate, a shareholder's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase in shareholding will be treated as an acquisition of voting rights for the purpose of Rule 32 of the Code on Takeovers and Mergers (the "Takeovers Code"). As a result, a shareholder, or a group of shareholders acting in concert, depending on the level of increase of shareholders' interest in the voting right of the Company, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code for all Shares not already owned by such shareholder or group of shareholders.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, as recorded in the register required to be kept by the Company under Part XV of the SFO, Mr. Hui Wing Mau, the Chairman and controlling shareholder of the Company, has interest in 2,256,699,442 Shares, representing approximately 64.99% of the issued share capital of the Company.
In the event that the Directors exercise in full the power to buy back Shares in accordance with the term of the Buy-back Mandate to be proposed at the 2015 AGM, the interest of Mr. Hui Wing Mau in the share capital of the Company would be increased to approximately 72.21% of the issued share capital of the Company. Save as aforesaid, the Directors are not aware of any consequence which may arise under the Takeovers Code as a result of any buy-back to be made under the Buy-back Mandate. However, the Directors have no intention to exercise the proposed Buy-back Mandate to such an extent which would affect the minimum public float requirement under the Listing Rules.
