REASONS AND BENEFITS FOR THE SUBSCRIPTION The Group is principally engaged in manufacturing and sales of jelly products confectionary products beverages products and other snacks products in the PRC.– 11 –LETTER FROM THE BOARD As disclosed in the annual report (the ‘‘2023 Annual Report’’) of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2023 (‘‘FY2023’’) the Group’s sales was positively affected by the gradual recovery of the consumer sentiment in the PRC from the hit by the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (‘‘COVID-19’’) outbreak and the Group’s immense efforts in expanding its new sales channels (‘‘New Sales Channels’’) e.g. sales through major snacks convenience stores chains in the PRC paid off. The Group recorded sales revenue of approximately RMB764.4 million for FY2023 representing an increase of approximately 11.7% as compared with the year ended 31 December 2022 (‘‘FY2022’’). Nevertheless the distributors of Group were generally bruised by COVID-19 control measures in FY2022 some of which suffered from great financial difficulties and hence the Group encountered slow settlements from or default by these distributors during FY2022 and FY2023. As a result an allowance for expected credit losses of the Group of approximately RMB47.5 million and RMB78.9 million were recorded in FY2022 and FY2023 respectively.As at 31 December 2023 the Group had net current liabilities of approximately RMB94.4 million and gearing ratio (i.e. the sum of total borrowings lease liabilities and loan from a director divided by total equity) is approximately 202.8%. As at the Latest Practicable Date the Payment Amount was approximately RMB85.42 million. In light of the current financial position of the Group it is difficult for the Company to repay the Payment Amount without further financing activities. Hence the Subscription represents a good opportunity to improve the net current liability position and lower the gearing ratio of the Group while preserving the cash reserve of the Group.The Board has considered various fund-raising methods apart from the Subscription. With regard to debt financing the Board considers that given the current gearing ratio of the Group of approximately 202.8% it is not beneficial to the Group to further increase its debt level with additional finance costs. With regard to equity financing methods given the latest financial results of the Group the low liquidity of the Shares and the current market capitalisation of the Company the Directors consider that it is not feasible to identify any placing agents or rights issue or open offer subscribers to raise sufficient funds to repay the Payment Amount without a substantial discount on the market price per Share. Further the Directors consider that the placing rights issue or open offer would incur costly placing or underwriting commission and the process would be relatively time-consuming.The Board (including the members of the Independent Board Committee whose view is set forth in ‘‘Letter from the Independent Board Committee’’ of this circular after having been advised by BaoQiao Partners in this regard) consider the terms of the Subscription Agreement to be normal commercial terms and the Subscription is fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.– 12 –LETTER FROM THE BOARD Each of Mr. Zheng Yu Long Mr. Zheng Yu Shuang and Mr. Zheng Yu Huan (being executive Directors) and Mr. Li Hung Kong (being a non-executive Director) has abstained from voting on (and has not been counted in the quorum for) the relevant Board resolutions for approving the Subscription Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder by virtue of their interests in the Subscription. Save as disclosed above none of the other Directors is regarded as having a material interest in and therefore none of them is required to abstain from voting on the relevant Board resolutions for approving the Subscription Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder.INFORMATION ON THE PARTIES INVOLVED The Company is an investment holding company. The principal activities of the Group are manufacturing and sales of jelly products confectionary products beverages products and other snacks products.Alliance Holding is a company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands with limited liability and is principally engaged in investment holding.

Background Information of the Group The Company is incorporated in Bermuda with limited liability and the Shares of which are listed on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange. The Group is principally engaged in manufacturing and sales of jelly products confectionary products beverages products and other snacks products in the PRC. 2. Financial Information of the Group Set out below is a summary of the audited financial information of the Group for the years ended 31 December 2023 (‘‘FY2023’’) and 31 December 2022 (‘‘FY2022’’) as extracted from the 2023 Annual Report: FY2023 FY2022 (audited) (audited) RMB’000 RMB’000 Revenue 764377 684263 Gross profit 218940 244192 Gross margin 28.6% 35.7% Loss for the year (104754) (75328) As at 31 December 20232022 (audited) (audited) RMB’000 RMB’000 Total assets 810907 977311 Total liabilities 588349 649999 Net current liabilities (94369) (9503) Net assets 222558 327312 – 22 –LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER Financial performance of the Group Revenue for FY2023 increased by approximately 11.7% to approximately RMB764.4 million from approximately RMB684.2 million for FY2022 due mainly to the post Coronavirus Disease 2019 (‘‘COVID-19’’) recovery of consumer sentiments in the PRC and the expansion of new sales channels e.g. sales through major snacks convenience stores chains which boosted the sales of the Group during FY2023. In addition in FY2023 the Group had gone through a rigorous assessment of the sales performance and financial health of its distributors with a view to optimise its distribution network to improve sales network performance of its products and reduce the Group’s credit risk exposure from those under- performed.Despite the increase in revenue for FY2023 the Group reported an increase in net loss from approximately RMB75.3 million for FY2022 to approximately RMB104.8 million for FY2023. As disclosed in the 2023 Annual Report and as advised by the Management the increase in net loss for FY2023 was mainly attributable to (i) the decrease in overall gross profit margin from approximately 35.7% for FY2022 to approximately 28.6% for FY2023 due primarily to the increasing sales through snacks convenience stores chains with generally lower profit margin than sales through distributors; and (ii) the increase in allowance for expected credit losses of approximately RMB31.4 million from RMB47.5 million for FY2022 to approximately RMB78.9 million for FY2023 as a result of an upsurge of overdue receivables from or default payment by the Group’s sales distributors who have yet recovered from the financial distress caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.Financial position of the Group As at 31 December 2023 the Group’s total asset amounted to approximately RMB810.9 million which comprised mainly property plant and equipment of approximately RMB238.0 million right-of-use assets of approximately RMB86.8 million trade receivables of approximately RMB238.7 million prepayment and other receivables of approximately RMB134.5 million and cash and cash equivalents of approximately RMB44.3 million. The Group’s total liabilities amounted to approximately RMB588.3 million which mainly included bank borrowings of approximately RMB405.2 million and trade and other payables of approximately RMB167.3 million.There was deterioration in the financial position of the Group with net assets decreased from approximately RMB327.3 million as at 31 December 2022 to approximately RMB222.6 million as at 31 December 2023 and the net current liabilities increased from approximately RMB9.5 million as at 31 December 2022 to approximately RMB94.4 million as at 31 December 2023 due mainly to the increasing loss for FY2023.– 23 –LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER 3. Information on the Subscribers and the Relevant Directors The Relevant Directors include (i) Mr. YL Zheng Mr. Zheng Yu Shuang and Mr. Zheng Yu Huan (collectively known as ‘‘Zheng Brothers’’) whom are brothers and executive Directors; and (ii) Mr. Li Hung Kong (‘‘Mr. HK Li’’) the brother-in-law of Zheng Brothers and the non- executive Director.The Subscribers include Mr. YL Zheng and Alliance Holding an investment holding company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands with limited liability. As at the Latest Practicable Date Alliance Holding is owned as to 28% by each of Zheng Brothers and as to 16% by Mr. HK Li. 4. Information about the Payment Amount The Payment Amount of approximately RMB85420470 (equivalent to approximately HK$94070227 at the Exchange Rate) represents an aggregate of (i) the outstanding principal and accrued interest in aggregate of approximately RMB62462293 (equivalent to approximately HK$68787284 at the Exchange Rate) under the Shareholder’s Loan (i.e. an unsecured loan facility granted by Mr. YL Zheng to the Company of up to RMB70 million for a term from 1 January 2024 up to 31 December 2024 (both days inclusive) and carries a fixed interest of 2% per annum); and (ii) the Directors’ Emoluments of RMB22958177 (equivalent to approximately HK$25282943 at the Exchange Rate) which represent (a) the director’s emoluments accrued and payable by the Company to Mr. YL Zheng in the aggregate amount of RMB7041590 (equivalent to approximately HK$7754628 at the Exchange Rate); (b) the director’s emoluments accrued and payable by the Company to Mr. Zheng Yu Shuang in the aggregate amount of RMB7055484 (equivalent to approximately HK$7769929 at the Exchange Rate); (c) the director’s emoluments accrued and payable by the Company to Mr. Zheng Yu Huan in the aggregate amount of RMB6941329 (equivalent to approximately HK$7644215 at the Exchange Rate); and (d) the director’s emoluments accrued and payable by the Company to Mr. HK Li in the aggregate amount of RMB1919774 (equivalent to approximately HK$2114172 at the Exchange Rate).As advised by the Management the Shareholder’s Loan was applied for the Company’s working capital in Hong Kong.– 24 –LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER 5. Reasons for and benefits of the Subscription As disclosed in the 2023 Annual Report and as discussed in the paragraph headed ‘‘2.Financial Information of the Group’’ in this letter the Group recorded net losses for the last five financial years ended 31 December 2023 and in spite of the increase in the Group’s sales for FY2023 as a result of expanding new sales channels the Group recorded a decrease in gross profit margin and increase in net loss to approximately RMB104.8 million for FY2023. In addition the Group had net current liabilities of approximately RMB94.4 million and gearing ratio (i.e. the sum of total borrowings lease liabilities and loan from a director divided by total equity) of approximately 202.8% as at 31 December 2023. Moreover the Group’s principal activities are conducted in the PRC and its earnings are denominated in RMB and the remittance of RMB from PRC to Hong Kong is subject to foreign exchange control.In light of the above and taking into account the size of the Payment Amount (i.e.approximately RMB85.4 million) we consider that the offshore Payment Amount is unlikely to be settled in the absence of the Subscription or other financing activities.As stated in the Letter from the Board the total consideration of the Subscription Shares under the Subscription Agreement will be satisfied by setting off the Payment Amount there will be no cash proceeds from the Subscription. As discussed with the Management the Company is of the view that the Subscription will allow the Company to settle the Payment Amount without utilising existing financial resources of the Group while reducing the debt level of the Group and hence strengthen the financial position of the Group.Based on the above and our discussion with the Management we concur with the Directors’ view that the Subscription represents a good opportunity to improve the net current liability position and lower the gearing ratio of the Group while preserving the cash reserve of the Group and without incurring any interest expenses to the Group.Alternative fund-raising methods considered The Directors have considered other alternative means for raising fund apart from the Subscription such as debt financings and other equity financing methods such as share placement rights issue or open offer. Based on our discussion with the Management and as disclosed in the Letter from the Board given the high gearing ratio of the Group and having considered that additional debt financings would increase its debt level with additional finance costs and may require pledge of assets of the Group the Directors considered that debt financings might not be an appropriate alternative to settle the Payment Amount.– 25 –LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER In addition to debt financings the Board has also considered other means of equity financing such as share placement rights issue or open offer. Given the consecutive losses position of the Group and the thin trading volume of the Shares as analysed in the paragraphs headed ‘‘2. Financial Information of the Group’’ and ‘‘Historical trading volume and liquidity’’ in this letter respectively the Directors considered that and we also note from the discussions between the Company’s representative(s) and a few independent brokerage firms in seeking equity financings in the market that the Company might find it difficult to identify (i) third-party investor(s) who/which is/are willing to subscribe the Shares; or (ii) underwriter(s) who/which is/are interested to underwrite a rights issue or open offer with comparable fundraising size.Also a share placement rights issue or open offer might result in less favourable terms to the Company than the Subscription that such placing/underwriting commissions would likely exceed the cost under the Subscription without taking into account of further necessary professional fees.Having considered that (i) the Subscription would allow the Company to lower the Group’s its gearing level; (ii) other equity financings are relatively less cost effective as compared to the Subscription and the negative responses received by the Company from the independent brokerage firms in respect of the Company’s attempts to seek equity financings in the market; and (iii) additional debt financings would increase the Group’s debt level with additional finance costs and was not preferable option to the Company in light of the current financial position of the Group as discussed in paragraph headed ‘‘2. Financial Information of the Group’’ in this letter we concur with the Directors’ view that the Subscription is the more desirable solution for the Group to settle the Payment Amount in order to improve the Group’s financial position and therefore being in the interests of the Company and the Independent Shareholders as a whole. 6. The Subscription Agreement On 13 May 2024 the Company as issuer Mr. YL Zheng and Alliance Holding as Subscribers Zheng Brothers and Mr. HK Li as the Relevant Directors entered into the Subscription Agreement pursuant to which the Company conditionally agreed to allot and issue and the Subscribers conditionally agreed to subscribe for a total of 85518388 Subscription Shares at the Subscription Price of HK$1.10 per Subscription Share representing a total consideration of HK$94070226.80.

– 26 –LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER (ii) Alliance Holding as a Subscriber for a total of 22984494 Subscription Shares at the total consideration of HK$25282943.40 which will be payable by way of set-off against the Directors’ Emoluments including as to (a) the director’s emoluments accrued and payable by the Company to Mr. YL Zheng in the aggregate amount of RMB7041590 (equivalent to approximately HK$7754628 at the Exchange Rate);

and (ii) any interest accrued under the Shareholder’s Loan from the date of the Subscription Agreement to the date of completion of the Subscription will be waived by Mr. YL Zheng.The Subscription Shares will be allotted and issued under the Specific Mandate proposed to be sought from the Independent Shareholders at the SGM and the Subscription Shares when allotted and issued shall rank pari passu in all respects with the New Shares in issue on the date of their allotment and issue.– 27 –LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER The Subscription Shares and Subscription Price Subscription Shares On the basis that the existing issued share capital of the Company comprises 1328977000 Existing Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date and assuming that the issued share capital of the Company will comprise 132897700 New Shares upon the Capital Reorganisation becoming effective the Subscription Shares represent (i) approximately 64.35% of the existing issued share capital of the Company upon the Capital Reorganisation becoming effective; and (ii) approximately 39.15% of the issued share capital of the Company as enlarged by the allotment and issue of the Subscription Shares assuming there will be no change in the issued share capital of the Company between the Latest Practicable Date and completion of the Subscription other than the Capital Reorganisation and the issue of the Subscription Shares.Subscription Price The Subscription Price of HK$1.10 per New Share represents a notional price of HK$0.110 per Existing Share (the ‘‘Notional Price’’) based on the ratio for consolidation of ten (10) Existing Shares into one (1) New Share pursuant to the Capital Reorganisation.The Notional Price represents: (i) a discount of approximately 5.98% to the closing price of HK$0.117 per Existing Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Latest Practicable Date; (ii) a discount of approximately 5.17% to the closing price of HK$0.116 per Existing Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Last Trading Day; (iii) a discount of approximately 15.77% to the average closing price of HK$0.131 per Existing Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last five (5) consecutive trading days immediately prior to the date of the Last Trading Day; and (iv) a discount of approximately 21.03% to the average closing price of HK$0.139 per Existing Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last ten (10) consecutive trading days immediately prior to the date of the Last Trading Day.As stated in the Letter from the Board the Subscription Price was determined and negotiated on an arm’s length basis between the Company and the Subscribers and with reference to the market conditions and the prevailing market price of the Existing Shares.We set out the following analysis for illustrative purposes with a view to assess the fairness and reasonableness of the Subscription Price with reference to (i) the historical price performance; (ii) historical trading volume and liquidity; and (iii) the market comparables analysis.– 28 –LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER Historical price performance In order to assess the fairness and reasonableness of the Subscription Price (being HK$1.10 per New Share) we have reviewed the movements of the theoretical adjusted closing price of 10 Shares (taking into account the effect of the Capital Reorganisation) in aggregate calculated by aggregating the relevant closing price of 10 Shares (the ‘‘Adjusted Closing Price’’) during the 12-month period from 12 May 2023 up to and including 13 May 2024 the Last Trading Day (the ‘‘Review Period’’) which is commonly adopted timeframe for similar share price analysis in the market and is considered to be adequately lengthy to illustrate the recent trend of the closing prices of the Shares for our analysis on the Subscription Price the closing prices of the Shares and its trading volume for the purpose of assessing the fairness and reasonableness of the Subscription Price.Chart 1: Historical price analysis Daily closing price of the Shares (taking into account the effect of Capital Reorganisation) during the Review Period Source: The Stock Exchange As illustrated in the above chart the Adjusted Closing Price has been on a decreasing trend in general during the Review Period with the highest and lowest Adjusted Closing Price per New Share of HK$2.55 (equivalent to HK$0.255 per Existing Share) on 12 May 2023 30 May 2023 7 June 2023 and HK$1.16 (equivalent to HK$0.116 per Existing Share) on 13 May 2024 respectively.– 29 –LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER During the Review Period the daily Adjusted Closing Price remained fairly stable ranging between HK$2.30 (equivalent to HK$0.23 per Existing Share) to HK$2.55 (equivalent to HK$0.255 per Existing Share) from the beginning until 21 August 2023.Since then and subsequent to the publication of the interim results announcement of the Company for the six months ended 30 June 2023 on 30 August 2023 and up to the end of the Review Period the daily Adjusted Closing Price started to decline and demonstrate a general downward trend and reached the bottom of HK$1.16 (equivalent to HK$0.116 per Existing Share) on 13 May 2024. The Average Adjusted Closing Price during the Review Period was approximately HK$1.97 (equivalent to HK$0.197 per Existing Share).It is noted that the Subscription Price was determined with reference to the prevailing market prices of the Shares which is lower than the Average Adjusted Closing Price during the Review Period nonetheless taking into account (i) the thin trading liquidity (as set out in the paragraph headed ‘‘Historical trading volume and liquidity’’ below) and the declining trend of the Share price of the Company during the Review Period; (ii) the current gearing and financial position of the Group as set out in the paragraph headed ‘‘2. Financial information of the Group’’ above in this letter; (iii) the reasons for and benefits of the Subscription as set out in the paragraph headed ‘‘5. Reasons for and benefits of the Subscription’’ above in this letter; (iv) the terms of the Subscription Agreement are fair and reasonable based on our assessments with comparable analyses detailed in section headed ‘‘Market comparables analysis’’ below; and (v) Zheng Brothers and Mr. HK Li which in our view demonstrate their confidence as Directors and controlling Shareholders (via their holdings in Alliance Holdings) towards the Company and their support for the Company’s business development with an aim to improve the financial position of the Company we are of the view it is fair and reasonable to determine the Subscription Price with reference to the prevailing market prices of the Shares.– 30 –LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER Historical trading volume and liquidity Table 2: Trading liquidity analysis Approximate % of average daily Average daily Approximate % trading volume number of of average daily to the total Number of Shares traded trading volume number of trading days in per trading to the total issued Shares the month/ days in the number of held by public period month/period issued Shares shareholders 2023 May (from 12 May 2023) 13 90769 0.0068% 0.0152% June 21 100143 0.0075% 0.0167% July 20 69750 0.0052% 0.0117% August 23 80478 0.0061% 0.0135% September 19 169368 0.0127% 0.0283% October 20 42850 0.0032% 0.0072% November 22 155818 0.0117% 0.0261% December 19 65842 0.0050% 0.0110% 2024 January 22 8500 0.0006% 0.0014% February 19 112263 0.0084% 0.0188% March 20 7000 0.0005% 0.0012% April 20 165300 0.0124% 0.0276% May (up and including 8 472750 0.0356% 0.0790% the Last Trading Day) Minimum 8 7000 0.0005% 0.0012% Maximum 23 472750 0.0356% 0.0790% Average 19 118526 0.0089% 0.0198% Source: The Stock Exchange Notes: 1. The Review Period commenced on 12 May 2023 and ended on 13 May 2024. 2. Based on the total number of issued Shares as at end of the period/month. Regarding the liquidity of the Shares as shown in the table above the average daily trading volume for the respective month or period during the Review Period ranged from approximately 7000 Shares in March 2024 to approximately 472750 Shares in May 2024 representing approximately 0.0005% to 0.0356% of the total number of the Shares in issue and approximately 0.0012% to 0.0790% of the total number of the Shares held by the public as at the end of the relevant month respectively.– 31 –LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER We consider that the trading liquidity of the Shares were very thin during the Review Period with the average daily trading volume of all months/periods being less than 0.01% to the total number of issued Shares as at the end of their respective month/period. The limited trading liquidity and low trading volume pose significant hurdles for the Company to pursue alternative financing options such as placing of new Shares with independent investors rights issues and open offers without providing considerable incentives including a substantial placing/underwriting fees and/or discount on the issue price relative to the prevailing market price of the Shares. As such we concur with the Directors’ view that the Subscription is a more attractive method for financing the settlement of the Payment Amount and therefore is in the interests of the Company and the Independent Shareholders as a whole.Market comparables analysis To further assess the fairness and reasonableness of the Subscription we have selected and identified a list of comparable transactions based on the following criteria: (i) companies listed on the Stock Exchange and the Shares of which have not been suspended for three months or more (i.e. prolonged suspension) as at the date of the Subscription Agreement; and (ii) companies that had published announcements in relation to subscription of new shares by connected persons under specific mandate (excluding issues under share award or restructuring scheme) with the proceeds (fully or partially) used for loan/debt capitalisation (the ‘‘Comparables’’) during the period from 12 May 2023 up to and including 13 May 2024 (the ‘‘Comparable Period’’) being twelve months prior to the entering into of the Subscription Agreement.Independent Shareholders should note that the principal activities market capitalisation profitability and financial position of the companies under the Comparables may not be the same as or may even substantially vary from that of the Company and we have not conducted any detailed investigation into the respective businesses operations financial positions and prospects of the companies under the Comparables.In this regard we have identified four Comparables in total during the Comparable Period. We are of the view that the Comparable Period adequately covered the prevailing market conditions and sentiments of the capital market in Hong Kong and the number of the Comparables identified may provide general reference of the recent common market practice of listed companies in Hong Kong for the relevant transactions. As such we consider the Comparables are fair and representative samples for comparison purpose which represent a full and exhaustive list of relevant comparable issues of shares based on the stated criteria and are sufficient for assessing the fairness and reasonableness of the Subscription Price.– 32 –LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER Details of the Comparables are set out below: Date of Premium/(discount) of Announcement Company Name Stock code the issue/subscription price over/(to) (Note) the average the average closing price closing price per share for per share for the last 5 the last 10 the closing price consecutive consecutive of the last trading trading days trading days day prior to/on prior to/on the prior to/on the the date of date of the date of the the relevant relevant relevant announcement/ announcement/ announcement/ agreement agreement agreement Approximate % Approximate % Approximate % 18/03/2024 China Qidian Guofeng 1280 (31.37)% (31.64)% (30.97)% Holdings Limited 07/03/2024 China HK Power Smart Energy 931 same 1.42% 1.54% Group Limited 07/09/2023 Da Sen Holdings Group 1580 (35.48)% (40.48)% (43.50)% Limited 31/08/2023 Bonjour Holdings Limited 653 same 0.65% / Min (35.48)% (40.48)% (43.50)% Max 0.00% 1.42% 1.54% Average (16.71)% (17.51)% (24.31)% Median (15.69)% (15.50)% (30.97)% The Company (5.17)% (15.77)% (21.03)% Source: The Stock Exchange Note: The premium/discount is extracted from the relevant published announcements of the companies for the Comparables.Price comparison with Comparables Based on the above table we noted that the subscription prices to the closing price per share on the last trading day being the date of the corresponding agreement of the Comparables (the ‘‘Market Range’’) ranged from a discount of approximately 35.48% to no premium/discount with the average and median at discount of approximately 16.71% and approximately 15.69% respectively to the respective closing prices per share on the dates of relevant announcements of the Comparables.Also the subscription prices of the Comparables ranged from a discount of approximately 40.48% to a premium of approximately 1.42% with an average and median at discount of approximately 17.51% and approximately 15.50% respectively to the respective average closing prices per share for the five consecutive trading days prior to (and including) the dates of relevant announcements of the Comparables (the ‘‘5-Days Range’’).– 33 –LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER For the ten consecutive trading days prior to (and including) the dates of relevant announcements of the Comparables (the ‘‘10-Days Range’’) the corresponding subscription prices of the Comparables ranged from a discount of approximately 43.50% to 1.54% premium with the average and median at discount of approximately 24.31% and approximately 30.97% respectively to the respective closing prices per share on the dates of relevant announcements of the Comparables.Based on the above we note that (i) the discount of the Subscription Price to the closing price per Share on the date of the Last Trading Day is lower than the Comparables; (ii) the discount of the Subscription Price to the average closing price per Share on the last five (5) consecutive trading days of the companies is slightly higher than the median but lower than the average closing price per Share on the last five (5) consecutive trading days of the companies involved in the Comparables; and (iii) the discount of the Subscription Price to the average closing price per Share on the last ten (10) consecutive trading days of the companies is lower than the average and the median closing price per Share on the ten (10) consecutive trading days of the companies involved in the Comparables and we consider that the Subscription Price is fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned and that the terms of the agreement are on normal commercial terms fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Independent Shareholders as a whole. 7. Potential dilution effects of the Subscription With reference to the section headed ‘‘Effect on the Shareholdings Structure’’ in the Letter from the Board the Subscription will incur a dilution effect on the shareholding of the existing Shareholders (i.e. from approximately 45.01% to approximately 27.38% immediately after the Completion) having taken into account the reasons for and benefits of the Subscription in particular (i) the Subscription can relieve part of the Group’s existing loan without depleting its existing financial resources; (ii) the result of the Subscription can lower the gearing ratio and immediately improve the financial position of the Group and (iii) the lack of alternative means of financings as stated above we are of the view that the potential dilution effect on the shareholding interests of the public Shareholders to be acceptable.– 34 –LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER 8. Possible financial effects of the Subscription Upon Completion assuming other factors remain constant the Payment Amount is expected to be set off against the Subscription Shares and the Subscription Shares will be recognised entirely as equity of the Company which in turn will enlarge the capital base reduce the gearing level and enhance the net asset position of the Group.With reference to the 2023 Annual Report the gearing ratio of the Group (i.e. the sum of total borrowings lease liabilities and loan from a director divided by total equity) is approximately 202.8% as at 31 December 2023. As the Payment Amount would be capitalised as consideration for the Subscriptions upon Completion whilst the total equity of the Group would be enlarged upon Completion it is expected that the Subscription would reduce the gearing ratio and improve the net current liability position of the Group.It should be noted that the above analyses are for illustrative purpose only and do not purport to represent how the financial position of the Group will be upon Completion.RECOMMENDATION Notwithstanding the entering into the Subscription Agreement is not in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Company having considered the aforementioned principal factors and reasons we are of the view that (i) the Subscription is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole; and (ii) the terms of the Subscription Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder are on normal commercial terms and are fair and reasonable so far as the Company and the Independent Shareholders are concerned.Accordingly we recommend the Independent Shareholders and advise the Independent Board Committee to recommend the Independent Shareholders to vote in favour of the resolution to be proposed at the SGM to approve the Subscription Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder.Yours faithfully For and on behalf of BaoQiao Partners Capital Limited Irene Poon Executive Director Ms. Irene Poon is a responsible officer registered under the SFO to carry out Type 6 (advising on corporate finance) regulated activities for BaoQiao Partners Capital Limited and has over 20 years of experience in the accounting and corporate financial services industry.– 35 –APPENDIX GENERAL INFORMATION 1.
