Dear Sir or Madam,

    1. PROPOSED CAPITAL REORGANISATION AND CHANGE IN BOARD LOT SIZE;
    2. PROPOSED RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTOR; AND
  1. NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING

1. INTRODUCTION

Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 27 November 2019 in relation

to, among other things, the proposed Capital Reorganisation and change in board lot size, and the announcement of the Company dated 30 September 2019 in relation to, among other things, the changes of Directors.

- 6 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The purpose of this circular is to provide you with, among other things, (i) further information regarding the Capital Reorganisation and change in board lot size; (ii) proposed reelection of Mr. Yan Xiaotian as Director; and (iii) a notice convening the EGM.

2. PROPOSED CAPITAL REORGANISATION AND CHANGE IN BOARD LOT SIZE

Proposed Capital Reorganisation

The Board proposes to implement the Capital Reorganisation which involves the following steps which are to take effect on the same day in the following order:-

  1. Share Consolidation

Pursuant to the Share Consolidation, every twenty (20) issued and unissued Existing Shares will be consolidated into one (1) Consolidated Share and where applicable, the total number of Consolidated Shares in the issued share capital of the Company immediately following the Share Consolidation will be rounded down to a whole number.

  1. Capital Reduction

The Capital Reduction will involve the following:

  1. the Reduction of Issued Capital whereby the par value of each issued Consolidated Share will be reduced from HK$0.20 to HK$0.01 by cancelling HK$0.19 of the paid-up capital on each issued Consolidated Share;
  2. the subdivision of each authorised but unissued Consolidated Share of par value of HK$0.20 into 20 unissued Adjusted Shares; and
  3. the application of the credit arising from the Reduction of Issued Capital along with the entire amount standing to the credit of the share premium account of the Company in and towards setting off of part of the accumulated deficit of the Company in a manner as permitted by the Companies Law and other applicable laws.

Any fractional Adjusted Shares arising from the Capital Reorganisation (principally as a result of the Share Consolidation) will be disregarded and will not be issued to the Shareholders. All such fractional Adjusted Shares will be aggregated and sold, if possible. The proceeds of such sale (net of related expenses) will be retained for the benefit of the Company.

- 7 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Conditions to the Capital Reorganisation

The Capital Reorganisation is conditional upon the following:-

  1. the passing of the necessary resolutions by the Shareholders at the EGM to approve the Capital Reorganisation;
  2. the Grand Court granting an order confirming the Reduction of Issued Capital;
  3. compliance with any conditions which the Grand Court may impose in relation to the Reduction of Issued Capital;
  4. the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange granting approval for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Adjusted Shares in issue immediately upon the Capital Reorganisation becoming effective; and
  5. the registration by the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands of a copy of the order of the Grand Court confirming the Reduction of Issued Capital and the minute approved by the Grand Court containing the particulars required under the Companies Law with respect to the Reduction of Issued Capital.

Effect of the Capital Reorganisation

Assuming that there are no other changes in the issued share capital of the Company from the Latest Practicable Date, the share capital structure of the Company as at (i) the Latest Practicable Date and (ii) immediately after the Capital Reorganisation becoming effective, will be as follows:-

Existing Shares

Adjusted Shares

All Adjusted Shares in issue immediately following the Capital Reorganisation becoming effective will rank pari passu in all respects with each other. The Capital Reorganisation will not result in any change in the relative rights of the Shareholders, save for any fractional Adjusted Shares to which Shareholders may otherwise be entitled to, which will not be issued to Shareholders. Instead, all such fractional Adjusted Shares will be aggregated and sold, if possible. The proceeds of such sale (net of related expenses) will be retained for the benefit of the Company. Fractional Adjusted Shares will only arise if an integral number does not result when the total number of Existing Shares held by a Shareholder (regardless of the number of share certificates held by such Shareholder) is divided by 20.

The Company currently has no plan or intention to carry out any future corporate actions in the next twelve months which may have an effect of undermining or negating the intended purpose of the Capital Reorganisation or further changing the trading arrangement of the Company. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company has no outstanding warrants, options or convertible securities or other similar rights which are convertible or exchangeable into Shares.

Other than the expense to be incurred in relation to the Capital Reorganisation, the implementation of the Capital Reorganisation will not, of itself, alter the underlying assets business operations, management or financial position of the Company or the interests or rights of the Shareholders on the date on which the Capital Reorganisation is to be effected.

Change in board lot size

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Existing Shares are traded on the Stock Exchange in board lot size of 40,000 Existing Shares. As stated in the announcement of the Company dated 27 November 2019, the Board has approved, conditional upon the Capital Reorganisation becoming effective, the change of the board lot size for trading on the Stock Exchange from the current 40,000 Existing Shares to 10,000 Adjusted Shares.

- 9 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Based on the closing price of HK$0.016 per Existing Share as at the Latest Practicable Date, the board lot value of 40,000 Existing Shares is only HK$640. A minimal board lot value of HK$2,000 will be attained when the board lot size is changed to 10,000 Adjusted Shares upon the Capital Reorganisation becoming effective.

The change in board lot size will not result in any change in the relative rights of the Shareholders.

Further announcement(s) will be made by the Company to inform Shareholders of the progress of the Capital Reorganisation and change in board lot size, including but not limited to any updates to the expected timetable of the Capital Reorganisation and change in board lot size, as and when appropriate.

Reasons for the Capital Reorganisation and change in board lot size

The Share Consolidation will reduce the total number of Existing Shares currently in issue and is expected to bring about a corresponding upward adjustment to the trading price per Adjusted Share on the Stock Exchange, and hence, the transaction cost as a proportion of the market value of each board lot will be lower.

Based on the closing price of HK$0.016 per Existing Share (equivalent to the theoretical closing price of HK$0.32 per Adjusted Share) as at the Latest Practicable Date,

  1. the value of each board lot of 40,000 Adjusted Shares would be HK$12,800 assuming the Capital Reorganisation has become effective; and (ii) the estimated market value per board lot of 10,000 Adjusted Shares would be HK$3,200 assuming the change in board lot size has also been effective. The change in board lot size upon the Capital Reorganisation taking effect will maintain the trading amount for each new board lot of Adjusted Shares at a reasonable level and improve the trading liquidity of the Adjusted Shares, thereby attracting more investors and broaden the shareholder base of the Company.

Further, under the Companies Law, the Company is restricted in its ability to issue Shares at a price lower than their par value. The Capital Reduction will reduce the par value of the Consolidated Shares, which will provide the Company with greater flexibility to accommodate the issue of new Adjusted Shares in the future when necessary and thereby enabling the re-capitalisation of the share capital of the Company.

The Directors consider that the Capital Reorganisation and the proposed adjustment in board lot size would help maintain the transaction amount for each board lot at a reasonable level and attract more investors and extend the base of the Shareholders, provide flexibility for equity fund raising of the Company in the future and eliminate a substantial amount of the Company's accumulated loss, hence, allowing greater flexibility for the Company to pay dividends in the future. Accordingly, the Directors are of the view that the implementation of the Capital Reorganisation and the proposed adjustment in board lot size are beneficial to and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

- 10 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

As at the Latest Practicable Date, save for the issue of Shares under the general mandate as disclosed in the Company's announcement dated 27 November 2019 and which was completed on 4 December 2019, the Company had no plan or intention or was not under any negotiation to enter into any agreement to conduct equity fund raising activity for the Group in the next twelve months. However, the Company can not rule out the possibility of conducting equity fund raising exercises when suitable fund raising opportunities arise or when required by the business development and expansion in the future.

Listing and dealings

Application has been made by the Company to the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Adjusted Shares immediately upon the Capital Reorganisation becoming effective.

Subject to the granting of the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Adjusted Shares on the Stock Exchange, the Adjusted Shares will be accepted as eligible securities by HKSCC for deposit, clearance and settlement in CCASS with effect from the commencement date of dealings in the Adjusted Shares on the Stock Exchange or such other date as determined by HKSCC. Settlement of transactions between participants of the Stock Exchange on any trading day is required to take place in CCASS on the second settlement day thereafter. All activities under CCASS are subject to the General Rules of CCASS and CCASS Operational Procedures in effect from time to time.

None of the equity or debt securities of the Company is listed or dealt in on any other stock exchange other than the Stock Exchange and no such listing or permission to deal is being or is proposed to be sought.

The Adjusted Shares will be identical in all respects and rank pari passu in all respects with each other as to all future dividends and distributions which are declared, made or paid. All necessary arrangements will be made for the Adjusted Shares to be admitted into

CCASS.

Free exchange of share certificates

Subject to the Capital Reorganisation becoming effective, Shareholders may, on or after Tuesday, 11 February 2020 until Wednesday, 18 March 2020 (both days inclusive), submit share certificates for the Existing Shares (in blue colour) to the Company's branch share registrar and transfer office in Hong Kong, Tricor Tengis Limited, at Level 54, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen's Road East, Hong Kong, to exchange, at the expense of the Company, for new share certificates for the Adjusted Shares (in purple colour), on the basis of twenty (20) Existing Shares for one (1) Adjusted Share. Thereafter, certificates for the Existing Shares will be accepted for exchange only on payment of a fee of HK$2.50 (or such other amount as may from time to time be specified by the Stock Exchange) by the Shareholders for each share certificate for the Existing Shares submitted for cancellation or each new share certificate issued for the Adjusted Shares, whichever the number of certificates cancelled/issued is higher. After 4:10 p.m. on Monday, 16 March 2020, existing share certificates for the Existing Shares will only remain effective as documents of title and may be exchanged for certificates for the Adjusted Shares at any time but will not be accepted for delivery, trading and settlement purposes.
