Professor Yeoh served as Secretary for Health, Welfare and Food of the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region ("HK Government") between 1999 and 2004. From 1990 to 1999, he was Head of the Hong Kong Hospital Authority with responsibility for the management and transformation of the public hospital system.
As a clinician, Professor Yeoh pioneered public health programmes in the prevention of Hepatitis B and HIV/AIDS. He has held many key positions in professional bodies, both locally and internationally. Professor Yeoh was appointed a Justice of the Peace in 1993 and awarded an Order of the British Empire in 1997. In 2005, he was awarded the Gold Bauhinia Star Medal by HK Government in recognition of his public service.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, Professor Yeoh had interests (within the meaning of Part XV of the SFO) in 4,000 shares of the Company. Professor Yeoh receives from the Company a Director's fee at such rate as approved by Shareholders from time to time, and as stated in paragraph (3) on page 5 of this Circular. The relevant fee(s) payable to him is/are determined by reference to the level of fee normally payable by a listed company in Hong Kong to an independent non-executive director. He has no service contract with the Group and therefore receives no emolument from the Group other than the abovementioned Director's fee.
(3) Following a recent review of the level of fees payable to the Directors which was last fixed in
2013, it is now considered appropriate that the rates of fees payable to the Directors be revised with retroactive effect from 1 January 2015. Under such fee revision proposal, the amount of fee payable to: (i) the Chairman of the Company, originally at the rate of HK$200,000 per annum, will be increased to HK$225,000 per annum; (ii) each of the other Directors, originally at the rate of HK$100,000 per annum, will be increased to HK$150,000 per annum; and (iii) each of the members of the Company's Audit Committee (who are also Directors of the Company), originally at the rate of HK$50,000 per annum, will be increased to HK$75,000 per annum. Three separate resolutions to give effect to such fee revisions will be put forward at the AGM for the purpose of seeking approval from the shareholders of the Company (the "Shareholders").
(4) At the annual general meeting of the Company held on 9 June 2014, ordinary resolutions were passed giving general mandates to Directors (i) to repurchase shares of the Company on the Stock Exchange representing up to 10% of the shares of the Company in issue as at 9 June
2014; and (ii) to allot, issue or otherwise deal with shares subject to a restriction that the
aggregate number of shares to be allotted or agreed to be allotted must not exceed the aggregate of (a) 20% of the number of shares of the Company in issue as at 9 June 2014, plus (b) (authorised by a separate ordinary resolution as required by the Listing Rules) the number of any shares repurchased by the Company since the granting of the general mandate for issue of shares.
Pursuant to the Companies Ordinance (Chapter 622 of the Laws of Hong Kong) and the Listing Rules, these general mandates will lapse at the conclusion of the AGM, unless renewed at that meeting. As such, resolutions will be proposed at the AGM to renew the mandates mentioned above with appropriate amendments to the terms of the mandate. An explanatory statement as required under the Listing Rules to provide the requisite information in connection with the proposed repurchase mandate is set out in Appendix I to this Circular.

(5) Notice of the AGM is set out on pages 9 to 12 of this Circular. A form of proxy for use at the AGM is enclosed herein. Whether or not you intend to attend at the AGM or any adjournment thereof, you are requested to complete the form of proxy and return it to the registered office of the Company in accordance with the instructions printed thereon not less than 48 hours (exclusive of any part of a day that is public holiday) before the time fixed for the holding of the AGM or any adjournment thereof.

Accordingly, the Directors recommend you to vote in favour of all the relevant resolutions to be proposed at the AGM.
Yours faithfully, Peter K. C. Woo Chairman

APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

The following is the Explanatory Statement required to be sent to the Shareholders under the Listing Rules which provides requisite information in connection with the proposed general mandate for repurchase of shares and also constitutes the Memorandum required under section 239 of the new Companies Ordinance (Chapter 622 of the Laws of Hong Kong. References in this Statement to "Share(s)" mean ordinary share(s) in the capital of the Company:
(i) It is proposed that the general repurchase mandate will authorise the repurchase by the Company of up to 10% of the Shares in issue at the date of passing the resolution to approve the general repurchase mandate (subject to adjustment in the case of any conversion of any or all of the shares into a larger or smaller number of shares after passing of the resolution). As at 8 April 2015, being the Latest Practicable Date, the number of Shares in issue was
3,031,027,327 Shares. On the basis of such figure (and assuming no new Shares will be issued and no Share will be repurchased after the Latest Practicable Date and up to the date of passing such resolution), exercise in full of the general repurchase mandate would result in the repurchase by the Company of up to 303,102,732 Shares.
(ii) The Directors believe that the general authority from the Shareholders to enable repurchase of Shares is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders. Repurchases may, depending on the circumstances and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net assets and/or earnings per Share. The Directors are seeking the grant of a general mandate to repurchase Shares to give the Company the flexibility to do so if and when appropriate. The number(s) of Shares to be repurchased on any occasion and the price and other terms upon which the same are repurchased will be decided by the Directors at the relevant time having regard to the circumstances then pertaining.
(iii) The funds required for any repurchase would be derived from the distributable profits of the Company or such other fundings legally available for such purpose in accordance with the Company's constitutive documents and the laws of Hong Kong.
(iv) There could be an adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company (as compared with the position disclosed in its most recent audited financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2014 being forwarded to the Shareholders together with this Circular) in the event that the general repurchase mandate were exercised in full at any time during the proposed repurchase period. However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the general repurchase mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital of the Company or the gearing level which in the opinion of the Directors is from time to time appropriate for the Company.
(v) There are no Directors or (to the best of the knowledge of the Directors, having made all reasonable enquiries) any close associates (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Directors who have a present intention, in the event that the general repurchase mandate is granted by the Shareholders, to sell Shares to the Company.
(vi) The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange to exercise the power of the Company to make purchases pursuant to the general repurchase mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and the applicable laws of Hong Kong.

The Wharf (Holdings) Limited

(vii) As at the Latest Practicable Date, as recorded in the register required to be kept by the Company under Part XV of the SFO, Wheelock and Company Limited, being the controlling shareholder of the Company, was interested in more than 50% of the issued share capital of the Company. The Directors are not aware of any consequences which would arise under the Hong Kong Code on Takeovers and Mergers as a consequence of any purchases pursuant to the general repurchase mandate.
(viii) No purchase has been made by the Company of Shares in the six months prior to the Latest
Practicable Date.
(ix) No core connected persons (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company have notified the Company of a present intention to sell Shares to the Company and no such persons have undertaken not to sell Shares to the Company in the event that the general repurchase mandate is granted by the Shareholders.
(x) The highest and lowest prices at which Shares were traded on the Stock Exchange in each of the previous twelve months are as follows:
