– 20 – LETTER FROM THE BOARD

. the Intellectual Property Rights owned by the Philips Group which will be licensed or transferred to the JV Group pursuant to the Intellectual Property Agreement, the Trademark License Agreement and the Secondary Trademark License Agreement.

Completion of the Sale and Purchase Agreement is subject to the conditions precedent referred to in the sub-paragraph headed ‘‘Conditions for the Sale and Purchase Agreement’’ below.

Date

1 November 2011

Parties

(1) MMD

(2) Philips

(3) the Company

(4) JVCo

MMD is principally engaged in investment holding and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief having made all reasonable enquiries, save for Philips owning approximately 2.69% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date, Philips and the ultimate beneficial owner of Philips are third parties independent of the Company and its connected persons.

Pursuant to the Sale and Purchase Agreement, the Company guarantees to Philips the due and punctual discharge by MMD of its obligations thereunder.

Consideration and payment terms

MMD will purchase the JVCo Sale Shares at the Deferred Purchase Price, which will be an amount equal to 70% of the JV Group’s average audited consolidated EBIT in each financial year commencing from (and including) the year ended 31 December 2012 to (and including) the Last Year multiplied by four, provided that, if the above calculation results in a negative number, then the Deferred Purchase Price is deemed to be zero.

The Deferred Purchase Price was agreed after arm’s length negotiation between the Company and Philips. The Deferred Purchase Price has been determined with reference to, among other things, (i) the future prospects and performance of JVCo leveraging on the Philips Contributed Business and Philips Trademarks; (ii) the future economic and commercial prospects of the Territory; and (iii) Philips TV’s

– 21 – LETTER FROM THE BOARD global presence and innovation capabilities. The Directors consider that the Deferred Purchase Price is fair and reasonable because the Deferred Purchase Price provides an incentive to Philips (as the vendor of the Philips Contributed Business and owner of the Philips brand) to show commitment and support to the JV Group and to contribute to the turnaround of the Philips Contributed Business.

It is anticipated that the Deferred Purchase Price shall be satisfied from the Company’s internal resources and be settled by telegraphic transfer in immediately available funds of the Company as and when the Deferred Purchase Price becomes due and payable. Given that the Deferred Purchase Price will be calculated based on the JV Group’s average audited consolidated EBIT in financial years 2012 to the Last Yearandisnotsubjecttoacap,itisnotpossibletoascertaintheamountofthe Deferred Purchase Price at the present time.

Treatment of the Philips Receivables and the Philips Payables

Pursuant to the Sale and Purchase Agreement, it is agreed that the Philips Receivables shall remain with the Philips Group (excluding the JV Group) and shall not be transferred to the JV Group under the Disentanglement. Accordingly, the Philips Group (excluding the JV Group) shall remain entitled to the Philips Receivables. The Philips Payables shall remain with the Philips Group (excluding the JV Group) and shall not be transferred to the JV Group under the Disentanglement. Accordingly, the Philips Group (excluding the JV Group) shall remain responsible for settling the Philips Payables.

Based on the financial information on the Philips Business, trade and other receivables of the Philips Business amounted to US$616 million as at 31 December 2010. Trade and other payables and accruals of the Philips Business amounted to US$1,484 million as at 31 December 2010. Management of Philips considers that the nature of these receivables and payables are broadly within the definitions of Philips Receivables and Philips Payables.

Trade and other receivables primarily represent receivables from customers arising from sales. Trade payables, other payables and accruals mainly comprise, among others, payables to suppliers for purchases of inventories, sales-related taxes and social security contributions payables, material related and other accruals, sales related accruals, and salary and wages payable. Philips Receivables and Philips Payables refer to balances as at the Completion Date, and accordingly, the net assets position as of 3 July 2011 and the net liabilities position as of 31 December 2010 (as set out in the paragraph headed ‘‘Information on JVCo’’ below) do not include Philips Receivables and Philips Payables. However, they include the aforementioned trade and other receivables, trade payables, other payables and accruals as at 3 July 2011 and 31 December 2010, which management of Philips considers that they should be of a similar nature as Philips Receivables and Philips Payables as at the Completion Date.

Information on JVCo

JVCo, with its statutory seat in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, is incorporated by Philips to hold the Philips Contributed Business. Pursuant to the Disentanglement to be carried out by Philips or the members of the Philips Group prior to Completion, the Philips Contributed Business will be transferred to the JV Group. Upon Completion, JVCo will, directly or indirectly, own and control the Philips Contributed Business.

The Philips Contributed Business, which is currently part of Philips Consumer Lifestyle, has its headquarters in Amsterdam (Netherlands), innovation/ development sites in Eindhoven (Netherlands), Bruges (Belgium), Bangalore (India) and Singapore, manufacturing sites in Szekesfehervar (Hungary), Manaus (Brazil) and Tierra del Fuego (Argentina) and sales organisations in 31 countries in Europe and South America.

The Philips Contributed Business also consists of employees (either directly employed by Philips or through a third party), assets (both tangible and intangible) and liabilities to the extent owned by or fully dedicated (or attributable) to the Scope Products.

The assets include certain intellectual property rights, material contracts, distribution and marketing, customer care, research and developments, websites and contracts with manufacturers and suppliers, order portfolio, inventory (including goods in transit), product roadmaps, IT hardware and software systems.

Set out below is a summary of the financial information on the Philips Business, which is prepared based on the accounting policies of the Company which are consistent with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards.

For the period from 1 January 2011 to 3 July 2011 US$ (million)

Revenue 1,658 Net loss before income tax and finance costs (335) Net loss before income tax (336) Net loss after income tax (341)

– 31 – LETTER FROM THE BOARD

For the year ended 31 December 2010 2009 US$ (million) US$ (million)

Revenue 4,083 3,951 Net loss before income tax and finance costs (104) (211) Net loss before income tax (105) (212) Net loss after income tax (125) (231)

As of 3 July 2011, the net assets position of the Philips Business was US$39 million. Notwithstanding a net loss of US$341 million for the period from 1 January to 3 July 2011, the net assets position of the Philips Business has improved from net liabilities of US$310 million as of 31 December 2010 due to a net additional funding of US$713 million from Philips.

As of 31 December 2010, the total assets and the net liabilities position of the Philips Business were US$1,404 million and US$310 million, respectively.

Reasons for the net loss for the period from 1 January 2011 to 3 July 2011

Price erosion, partly driven by stock depletion of high inventory levels from 2010, drives the gross profit decline in the first six months of 2011 compared to the same period last year. The industrial and the Philips Business overstock at the end of 2010 has led to relatively high stock in the retail stores. Competitors have also driven excessive price erosion to try and clear their oversupply. This has driven the market to experience higher than normal price erosion in 2011.

Total operating expenses increased mainly due to a rise in research and development expenses largely resulted from exceptional impairments as a result of lower returns. In addition, substantial amounts were incurred to speed up the time to market for 2012.

The results deteriorated due to the increased price erosion that materialized during the first six months of 2011 and the subsequent decline in gross profit and increased total operating expenses.

Price erosion and pressure is common for consumer electronics goods in general (and not just for TVs) due to economies of scale and continued advance in manufacturing research and technology. The Company hopes that the adverse impact from price erosion can be better managed using an improved cost structure, enhanced economies of scale with the acquisition of the Philips Contributed Business and more effective management of inventories.

– 32 – LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Reasons for the net loss for the year ended 31 December 2010

In 2010, there was a lower gross profit driven by price pressure across the product range. In the second half of 2010 there were high inventory levels at all global TV manufacturers and lower sales due to temporary component shortage.

Reasons for the net loss for the year ended 31 December 2009

Following the global recession caused by the financial crisis, in 2009, revenues decreased by 24% due to a world-wide sales decline in the Scope Products that mainly incurred in Brazil, Russia, the United Kingdom and France.

Philips Argentina is principally engaged in the import and sale of Philips branded products (lighting, consumer lifestyle and health care products) and is ultimately owned by Philips.

The Argentina JV is principally engaged in the manufacturing and sale of electronic products and is ultimately owned by Philips.

Pursuant to the Argentina JV Shareholders Agreement, there will be two business units within the Argentina JV: the TV business unit and the non-TV business unit. Philips guarantees to JVCo the due and punctual discharge by Philips Argentina of its obligations related to the non-TV business unit. The split of TV and non-TV business units are put in place in order to preserve the preferential tax treatment currently enjoyed by the Argentina JV and to reflect the commercial deal between the parties that JVCo will be entitled to the economics and results of the TV business unit only.

It is currently intended that the Argentina JV will be owned as to 63.4% by JVCo and 36.6% by Philips Argentina. Pursuant to the Sale and Purchase Agreement, such percentage shareholding is subject to an adjustment mechanism based on the fair market valuation of the tangible assets and liabilities, commitments and contingencies of the Argentina JV at Completion. Despite such percentage shareholding, pursuant to the Argentina JV Shareholders Agreement, JVCo will be entitled to 100% of the economics and results of the TV business unit, whereas Philips Argentina will be entitled to 100% of the economics and results of the non-TV business unit. At Completion, pursuant to the Argentina JV Shareholders Agreement, the assets and liabilities related to the Philips Contributed Business in Argentina JV will be for the account of JVCo.

The directors appointed by JVCo, including the chairman, shall be assigned to take care of the management of and to assume exclusive responsibility for the TV business unit. The directors appointed by Philips Argentina shall be assigned to the management of and to assume exclusive responsibility for the non-TV business unit.

The board of directors of the Argentina JV shall form two executive committees, to which it will delegate the supervision of the regular operations of the TV business unit and the non-TV business unit, respectively.

Quorum for ordinary shareholders’ meeting on first call shall be achieved with the presence of shareholders holding a majority of the votes. Quorum for extraordinary shareholders’ meetings on first call shall be achieved upon the presence of shareholders holding 80% of the votes.

Dividend policy The shareholders agree that whenever the Argentina JV’s financial statements show profits, the board of directors will recommend to establish special reserves for each business unit, allocating to the TV business unit’s special reserve the profits generated by the TV business unit, and to the non-TV business unit’s special reserve the profits generated by the non-TV business unit. The special reserves will be distributed to each shareholder upon implementation of the spin-off (see ‘‘Spin-off’’ paragraph below). Upon the spin-off date, each shareholder shall be entitled to receive the special reserve corresponding to its particular business unit.

Allocation of business JVCo shall benefit from all profits and shall suffer all units’ profit and losses resulting from the TV business unit; and Philips losses Argentina shall benefit from all profits and shall suffer all losses resulting from the non-TV business unit.

– 48 – LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Cross-indemnities From a legal perspective, Argentina JV (as the legal entity within which both the TV business unit and the non-TV business unit are housed) will be legally liable if there is litigation or other liabilities relating to the TV business unit or the non-TV business unit of Argentina JV. However, from a contractual perspective as between JVCo and Philips Argentina, at Completion, pursuant to the Argentina JV Shareholders Agreement, litigation or other liabilities relating to the non-TV business unit will be for the account of Philips Argentina, whereas litigation or other liabilities relating to the TV business unit will be for the account of JVCo. The Argentina JV Shareholders Agreement also provides for cross-indemnities, pursuant to which:

(i) Philips Argentina will indemnify JVCo, the directors appointed by JVCo to the board of the Argentina JV and JVCo’s affiliates, officers, directors and employeesforanylossorexpensesufferedorpaid, directly or indirectly as a result of or arising from, amongst others, any claims or liabilities or obligations derived from the non-TV business unit activities carried out by the Argentina JV; and

– 49 – LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Spin-off The Argentina JV will spin-off, on the second anniversary of the date of the Argentina JV Shareholders Agreement, all the assets and liabilities related to the TV business unit (the ‘‘Spin-Off’’) and transfer them to a new company created for such purposes. After the Spin-Off, the Argentina JV will continue developing the non-TV business and the new company will develop the TV business. JVCo will cease to hold any shares or have any interest in the Argentina JV after the Spin-Off. It is currently contemplated that (i) such results will be achieved by cancellation of all of JVCo’ssharesin Argentina JV.

Termination

The Argentina JV Shareholders Agreement shall terminate upon any of the parties not complying with any of the obligations set forth in the Argentina JV Shareholders Agreement and the default is not remedied within 30 days of the receipt of the notice.

– 50 – LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Argentina Non-TV Transactions

Based on the information provided by Philips to the Company, there will be two types of continuing transactions between Argentina JV and Philips relating to the non-TV business unit of Argentina JV (‘‘Argentina Non-TV Transactions’’), the details of which are set out below:

(i) a trademark license agreement between Argentina JV and Philips, pursuant to which Philips will grant Argentina JV the right to use certain trademarks relating to the non-TV products in Argentina. There is no payment obligation under such trademark license agreement; and

(ii) the provision of certain general corporate services, component purchase for non-TV products, sale of non-TV products and purchase of fixed assets for the production of non-TV products between Argentina JV and Philips. The provision of general corporate services comprises shared business services in relation to finance and accounting, sourcing and purchasing services, information systems support services, real estate and facility management services, general management services such as in-house legal services, corporate communications, public relations management and treasury services (such as payroll administration).

Philips has confirmed to the Company that the Argentina Non-TV Transactions will be on normal commercial terms.

On the basis that the economics and results of the non-TV business unit of Argentina JV are for the account of Philips Argentina (and not JVCo), and that it would be impractical and unduly burdensome for the Company to monitor the continuing transactions between Philips and Argentina JV relating to the non-TV business unit of Argentina JV, the Company has applied to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange for a waiver from compliance with the requirements of Chapter 14A in relation to the Argentina Non-TV Transactions. A waiver from compliance with the requirements of Chapter 14A in relation to the Argentina Non-TV Transactions was granted by the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on 13 December 2011. The Company will disclose details of the waiver application in relation to the Argentina Non-TV Transactions in its subsequent annual reports.

On the basis that the economics and results of the non-TV business unit of Argentina JV are for the account of Philips Argentina (and not JVCo), the Company considers that information related to the non-TV business unit of Argentina JV is unlikely to constitute price-sensitive information of the Group pursuant to Rule 13.09 of the Listing Rules. However, considering that the TV business unit and the non-TV business unit are housed within the same legal entity (that is, Argentina JV) and that, from a legal perspective, Argentina JV (as the legal entity within which the non-TV business is housed) will be legally liable if there is litigation or other liabilities relating to the non-TV business unit of Argentina JV, the Company will assess any litigation or claims against Argentina JV which are related to the non-TV business unit of Argentina JV on a case-by-case basis and will comply with Rule

– 51 – LETTER FROM THE BOARD

13.09 of the Listing Rules if the Company considers that any such litigation or claims would constitute price-sensitive information of the Group. Going forward, if the activities of Argentina JV have any other implications under the Listing Rules, the Company will continue to comply with the requirements of the Listing Rules or consult the Hong Kong Stock Exchange if strict compliance with the requirements of the Listing Rules is not feasible in the circumstances.

(IV) Licensing of Philips Trademarks and Philips Secondary Trademarks for the Philips Contributed Business

Pursuant to the Sale and Purchase Agreement, the Trademark License Agreement and the Secondary Trademark License Agreement in respect of licensing of the Philips Trademarks and the Philips Secondary Trademarks will be entered into at Completion.

(A) The Trademark License Agreement

– 52 – LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Second year to fifth year 2.2% of the Turnover EUR50.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$70.0 million)

The royalty shall be payable in arrears by JVCo to Philips in cash (in EUR) within 30 days after the end of each quarter.

The royalty has been arrived at after arm’s length negotiations between the Company and Philips with reference to, among other factors, the historical performance and future prospects of the Philips Contributed Business, including its earnings potential and synergies with the Group.

Term and renewal

The Trademark License Agreement will have an initial term of five years starting from the date of Completion and will be automatically renewed for a subsequent five-year period if JVCo meets certain key performance indicators as set out in the Trademark License Agreement. After the second 5-year term, the Trademark License Agreement may be extended by mutual agreement for successive 5-year periods against such terms and conditions as may be agreed between Philips and JVCo (but including in any event guaranteed minimum royalty obligations for JVCo) (the ‘‘License Term’’).

Termination

Philips may terminate the Trademark License Agreement by giving JVCo at least 3 months’ written notice if, among others, the following events occur: (i) there is a TPV Change of Control (as set out in the sub-paragraph headed ‘‘Philips Control Put Option’’ under the paragraph headed ‘‘Principal Terms’’ in the section headed ‘‘(II) The entering into of the Shareholders Agreement’’ in this circular); or (ii) the Company or the JV Group enters into an alliance or joint venture or similar agreement for its TV operations with a company which is considered by Philips as a competitor of Philips.

– 53 – LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Each party to the Trademark License Agreement may terminate the Trademark License Agreement by written notice in case of material breach, by the other party of certain terms as set out in the Trademark License Agreement and provided that the aforesaid breaches, which are capable of being cured, have not been cured within the period set out in the Trademark License Agreement.

THE EXISTING PHILIPS TRANSACTION

Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 29 September 2010 in relation to, among other things, the 2010 Trademark License Agreement. As mentioned in the aforesaid announcement, the Group would conduct a continuing connected transaction with the Philips Group. It is expected that the Group will continue to carry out such transaction with Philips upon Completion. Details of the Existing Philips Transaction are set out below.

The2010TrademarkLicenseAgreement

Introduction

On 29 September 2010, the Company, AOC and Philips entered into the 2010 Trademark License Agreement which Philips will grant to AOC and its affiliates an exclusive right and license to use certain Philips trademarks (i.e. the word mark ‘‘Philips’’ and the Philips Shield Emblem) on certain TVs in the PRC and on related promotional materials.

Date

29 September 2010

Parties

(1) Philips, as the licensor

(2) AOC, as the licensee

(3) the Company, as guarantor

AOC is principally engaged in investment holding and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

Principal terms

Philips has agreed to grant to AOC and its affiliates an exclusive right and license to use certain Philips trademarks (i.e. the word mark ‘‘Philips’’ and the Philips Shield Emblem) on certain TVs and related promotional materials in the PRC. The Company has agreed to guarantee the obligations of AOC and its affiliates under the 2010 Trademark License Agreement.

The scope products, being certain TVs, shall be manufactured only by AOC and its affiliates, or for AOC by those manufacturers as set out in the 2010 Trademark License Agreement or as may be approved by Philips from time to time.

The effective time of the 2010 Trademark License Agreement is the time of completion of the transfer of TV sales and distribution business in the PRC by Philips to AOC (the ‘‘PRC TV Transfer’’), i.e. at 24: 00 on 31 December 2010.

– 81 – LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Royalty payable

Under the 2010 Trademark License Agreement, AOC agreed to pay royalty on an annual basis, which is based on certain percentage of the turnover of the scope products which ranges from 2.5% to 3.0% based on a sliding scale of turnover of the scope products. AOC is required to pay a guaranteed minimum annual royalty of EUR6.8 million (equivalent to approximately US$9.5 million) under the 2010 Trademark License Agreement. The royalty payments are to be made in arrears every three months until the expiry or earlier termination (pro-rated accordingly) of the 2010 Trademark License Agreement.

The royalty has been arrived at after arm’s length negotiations among AOC, the Company and Philips with reference to trademark license arrangements of a similar nature. The minimum annual royalty has also been agreed based on arm’slength negotiations with reference to the historical revenue trend of the scope products.

Terms and renewal

The 2010 Trademark License Agreement will have a term of five years as from the time of completion, i.e. at 24: 00 on 31 December 2010. As soon as practicable after the fourth anniversary of the date of completion of the PRC TV Transfer, subject to AOC meeting certain agreed key performance indicators, Philips and AOC will enter into good faithnegotiationsonanexclusivebasisastothetermsofanextensionorrenewalofthe 2010 Trademark License Agreement.

Termination

Under the 2010 Trademark License Agreement, both AOC and Philips have a right to terminate by giving three months’ written notice to the other upon the occurrence of certain events. In addition, Philips has further rights to terminate by giving 12 months’ written notice after the second anniversary of the 2010 Trademark License Agreement if certain changes occur within Philips’ TV business in Europe and Philips is required to pay AOC certain specified compensation if it exercises such early termination right.

Reasons for and the benefits of the 2010 Trademark License Agreement

It is considered that Philips trademarks (i.e. the word mark ‘‘Philips’’ and the Philips Shield Emblem) are among the most renowned brands for televisions in the world. The entering into of the 2010 Trademark License Agreement offers a valuable opportunity for the Company to strengthen its leadership in the display industry in the PRC as well as being a significant step towards its strategy of diversifying into downstream operations. The then Directors consider the terms of the 2010 Trademark License Agreement are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE PROPOSED TRANSACTIONS

It is believed that the entering into of the Proposed Transactions will have the following benefits:

Solidifying a leading position in LCD TV market

The global demand for LCD TVs continuestogrowatdouble-digitrate attributable to the strong growth in the emerging markets including China, the stable replacement and upgrade demand in Europe and the US, and the fast- changing TV technologies. The 2011 global LCD TVs’ shipping volume is expected to reach approximately 211 million units, up by 16% when compared with approximately 182 million units in 2010. The acquisition of the Philips Contributed Business represents a long term strategy of the Group to become a leading global LCD TV manufacturer. Together with the acquisitions of Philips’ LCD TVs business in the PRC last year and the monitors business in 2009, the Proposed Transactions will enable the Group to strengthen its long term strategic relationship with Philips.

Continuing development needs of the Group

The Group is a leading monitor and television producer in the world. It commands leadership in product development, manufacturing and cost control. Its scale is backed up by an enhanced supply chain and back-end integration well- recognized in the industry. With Philips brand, innovation and development

– 83 – LETTER FROM THE BOARD capabilities, the Group will be better placed to compete with leading Japanese and Korean brands in the future. The Proposed Transactions will enable the Company to build on its strong fundamentals with a reputable brand with global market presence.

Economies of scale and creation of synergies

With the acquisition of the Philips Contributed Business, the Group will increase market share in LCD TVs production and this will enhance the Group’scost effectiveness by centralizing procurement of components, streamlining the sales channels and increasing research and development efficiencies. Costs savings are expected to arise from improvement in economies of scale in procurement of components given the increased volumes contributed by the Philips Contributed Business. The benefits of increased scale will be further enhanced by sharing best practices, consolidating vendor lists and increasing common product platforms and product line realignment between the Group’s business and that of the Philips Contributed Business. The Acquisition enables the Company to have a well established sales and distribution network without significant set up costs.

Stronger research and development

The Philips Contributed Business includes research and development organization in Eindhoven, Bruges, Singapore and Bangalore, including highly skilled and experienced research and development staff teams. This will complement and enhance the Group’s current research and development strengths and technological capabilities in TVs and TV products.

Enhanced product portfolio

The Acquisition provides the Group with a more comprehensive and innovative product range to address high-end market segment which will enhance the Group’s overall product delivery.

As integral parts to facilitate the Proposed Transactions, the entering into of the Auxiliary Agreements and the Reversed Auxiliary Agreements is premised on the extent that certain operational activitiescouldnotbeorganisedonatimelyandan independent manner by either the JV Group or the Philips Group prior to and after Completion (the ‘‘Transitional Period’’). Therefore, Philips or its members will in principle provide certain transitional services to JVCo or its members (or vice versa) to enable each party to carry out these operational activities during the Transitional Period. It is expected that after the Transitional Period, each party will be able to maintain independent operational and management structures to organise their operational activities independently.

FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF THE ACQUISITION AND THE EXERCISE OF ANY OF THE PHILIPS PUT OPTIONS

Upon Completion and the exercise of any of the Philips Put Options, JVCo will become 70%-owned and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, respectively, and the JV Group’s results will be consolidated into the Group’s consolidated financial statements. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information of the Enlarged Group illustrating the financial impact of the Acquisition and the exercise of any of the Philips Put Options on the results, assets and liabilities of the Group is set out in appendix III to this circular.

Based on the unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet of the Enlarged Group as set out in appendix III to this circular and assuming Completion had taken place on 30 June 2011, as a result of Completion, (i) the total assets would be increased by approximately 33.5% from approximately US$4,908 million to approximately US$6,551 million; (ii) the total liabilities would be increased by approximately 51.8% from approximately US$3,069 million to approximately US$4,660 million; and (iii) the net assets attributable to the Shareholders would be decreased by approximately 1.3% from approximately US$1,840 million to approximately US$1,817 million.

– 85 – LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Based on the unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet of the Enlarged Group as set out in appendix III to this circular and assuming Completion and the exercise of any of the Philips Put Options had taken place on 30 June 2011, as a result of Completion and the exercise of any of the Philips Put Options, (i) the total assets would be increased by approximately 33.5% from approximately US$4,908 million to approximately US$6,551 million; (ii) the total liabilities would be increased by approximately 51.6% from US$3,069 million to approximately US$4,654 million; and (iii) the net assets attributable to the Shareholders would be increased by approximately 3.2% from approximately US$1,840 million to approximately US$1,898 million.

Based on the unaudited pro forma consolidated income statement of the Enlarged Group as set out in appendix III to this circular and assuming Completion had taken place on 1 January 2010, as a result of Completion, (i) the total revenue would be increased by approximately 27.2% from approximately US$11,632 million to approximately US$14,792 million; and (ii) the net profit attributable to the Shareholders would be decreased by approximately 80.0% from US$170 million to approximately US$34 million.

Based on the unaudited pro forma consolidated income statement of the Enlarged Group as set out in appendix III to this circular and assuming Completion and the exercise of any of the Philips Put Options had taken place on 1 January 2010, as a result of Completion and the exercise of any of the Philips Put Options, (i) the total revenue would be increased by approximately 27.2% from approximately US$11,632 million to approximately US$14,792 million; and (ii) the net profit attributable to the Shareholders would be decreased by approximately 97.1% from US$170 million to approximately US$5 million.

Since the values of the assets and liabilities of the JV Group may be different at the Completion Date and the date of completion of the exercise of any of the Philips Put Options from their respective values used in the preparation of the unaudited pro forma financial information of the Enlarged Group, the actual amounts of the assets and liabilities of the JV Group to be recorded in the financial statements of the Group may be different from the estimated amounts shown in the unaudited pro forma financial information of the Enlarged Group.

FINANCIAL AND TRADING PROSPECTS OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

Financial and trading prospects of the Group

The continuing debt crisis in Europe will continue to dampen consumption and investment, rendering a near term recovery difficult. The latest forecast by the World Bank for global economic growth in 2011 and 2012 is low at 3.2% and 3.6%, respectively. Fiscal problems in the US and Europe are likely to continue suppressing market demand, whereas ongoing inflation and mounting cost pressures could create challenges for emerging economies. Standard & Poor’s downgrade of US credit rating in early August may well add to the market’s uncertainties.

– 86 – LETTER FROM THE BOARD

In the TFT-LCD industry, TV brands have become cautious about market demand in the second half, and they have adjusted their annual shipment targets downwards. DisplaySearch has also lowered its forecast for LCD TV shipments from 217 million units to 210 million units during the same period.

In response to these challenging trends in its business environment, the Company recently initiated a restructuring plan that will integrate its two business units and give it a functional organizational structure. This will improve the Group’s cost structure and efficiency by centralizing its operations. The Company remains confident that the commitment it is now making to the future of its business will bear fruit when the market picks up.

Financial and trading prospects of the Philips Business

The global economic outlook is uncertain with the continuing European sovereign debt crisis and Standard & Poor’s downgrade of US credit rating in early August. The market demand in the EU is likely to shrink with the Greece bailout package and austerity measures to be applied in various EU member states. On the other hand, emerging markets like Eastern Europe and Latin-America continue to grow.

Over the first nine months of 2011 the Philips Business results have deteriorated mainly because of the inventory and supply chain commitments carry over from 2010 into 2011. This high stock carry over in combination with oversupply in the industry have resulted in strong price erosion and exceptional low margins of the 2010 range. In addition, total operating expenses increased mainly due to overrun on research and development expenses largely resulting from exceptional impairments of capitalized development expenses, triggered by lower results. Furthermore, substantial amounts were incurred to speed up the time-to-market for 2012. The results deteriorated for the first nine months of 2011 due to the increased price erosion that materialized and the subsequent decline in gross profit and increased total operating expenses. Going into the fourth quarter of 2011 it is expected that the results will improve compared to the first three quarters of 2011. The new 2011 product range has better margins and the relative share of 2010 range sales with exceptional low margins is declining in the fourth quarter.

LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

The Acquisition and the Philips Put Options

As the consideration for the Acquisition and the Philips Put Options cannot be determined at this stage, the acquisition of a 70% equity interest in JVCo by the Company from Philips and the acquisition of the remaining 30% equity interest in JVCo by the Company from Philips through the exercise of any of the Philips Put Options constitutes a very substantial acquisition and a possible very substantial acquisition for the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules. Accordingly, the Acquisition and the granting of the Philips Put Options are subject to reporting, announcement and shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.

– 87 – LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Under the Bridge Facility, which is revolving in nature, the amounts advanced by Philips to JVCo will constitute the provision of financial assistance by a connected person, and will therefore constitute a continuing connected transaction under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. As the terms of the aforesaid financial assistance is on normal commercial terms where no security over the assets of the Company is granted in respect of the financial assistance, the financial assistance is exempt from reporting, announcement and independent shareholders’ approval under the Listing Rules.

The entering into of the Trademark License Agreement, the Secondary Trademark License Agreement, the Intellectual Property Agreement, the Auxiliary Agreements and the Reversed Auxiliary Agreements

Immediately upon Completion, Philips will hold a 30% equity interest in JVCo and will become a connected person of the Company by virtue of being a substantial shareholder of JVCo. Each of Philips Electronics, Philips Singapore, Philips Consumer Lifestyle, Online Shop, Employee Shop, Philips Brazil, Dixtal and Philips Hungary are direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of Philips. The transactions contemplated under the Trademark License Agreement, the Secondary Trademark License Agreement, the Intellectual Property Agreement, the Auxiliary Agreements and the Reversed Auxiliary Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereunder will therefore constitute continuing connected transactions for the Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. As certain applicable percentage ratios of the Annual Caps are more than 5%, the Trademark License Agreement, the Secondary Trademark License Agreement, the Intellectual Property Agreement, the Auxiliary Agreements and the Reversed Auxiliary Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereunder are subject to the reporting, annual review, announcement and independent shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

23 December 2011

To: the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders of TPV Technology Limited

Dear Sirs,

CONTINUING CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS IN RELATION TO

(1) THE PROPOSED LICENSING OF THE PHILIPS TRADEMARKS AND THE PHILIPS SECONDARY TRADEMARKS;

AND

(2) THE PROPOSED ENTERING INTO OF THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AGREEMENT, THE AUXILIARY AGREEMENTS AND THE REVERSED AUXILIARY AGREEMENTS REGARDING THE JOINT VENTURE WITH PHILIPS

INTRODUCTION

WerefertoourappointmenttoadvisetheIndependent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders in relation to the Continuing Connected Transactions (including the Annual Caps). Details of the terms of the Continuing Connected Transactions (including the Annual Caps) are set out in the letter from the Board contained in the circular (the ‘‘Circular’’)oftheCompanytotheShareholdersdated 23 December 2011, of which this letter forms part. Unless otherwise defined, capitalised terms used in this letter shall have the same meanings as those defined in the Circular.

On 1 November 2011, MMD, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and Philips entered into the Sale and Purchase Agreement. The Sale and Purchase Agreement involves, among other things, (i) the acquisition by MMD of 70% interest in JVCo, which will hold the Philips Contributed Business; and (ii) the granting of the Philips Put Options to Philips for selling the remaining 30% interest in JVCo to MMD. The Acquisition and the granting of the Philips Put Options constitute a very substantial acquisition and a possible very substantial acquisition for the Company respectively but neither of them is not a connected transaction under the Listing Rules. In the

– 93 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY circumstances, it is not part of our assignment to advise on the Acquisition and the granting of the Philips Put Options or to advise the Independent Board Committee or the Independent Shareholders on voting on the resolution in this regard.

Immediately upon Completion, Philips will hold 30% equity interest in JVCo shares and will become a connected person of the Company by virtue of being a substantial shareholder of JVCo. Consequently, the transactions contemplated under the Trademark License Agreement, the Secondary Trademark License Agreement, the Intellectual Property Agreement, the Auxiliary Agreements and the Reversed Auxiliary Agreements between the Philips Group and the Group, including the JV Group, will constitute continuing connected transactions for the Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules upon and after Completion. As certain applicable percentage ratios of the AnnualCapsaremorethan5%,theTrademarkLicenseAgreement,theSecondary Trademark License Agreement, the Intellectual Property Agreement, the Auxiliary Agreements and the Reversed Auxiliary Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereunder are subject to the reporting, annual review, announcement and independent shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. We understand that the terms of the Continuing Connected Transactions were negotiated as a package with the Acquisition and the granting of the Philips Put Options. Consequently, in considering the terms of the Continuing Connected Transactions, we have taken into account the strategic effect of the Acquisition and the granting of the Philips Put Options by MMD.

The Independent Board Committee, comprising all of the independent non-executive Directors, namely Mr. Chan Boon Teong, Dr. Ku Chia-Tai and Mr. Wong Chi Keung, has been established to make a recommendation to the Independent Shareholders as to the Continuing Connected Transactions (including the Annual Caps). We, Somerley Limited, have been appointed as the independent financial adviser to advise the Independent BoardCommitteeandtheIndependentShareholdersinthesameregard.

We are not associated with the Company, Philips, or their respective substantial shareholders or associates, and accordingly, are considered eligible to give independent advice on the Continuing Connected Transactions (including the Annual Caps). Apart from normal professional fees payable to us in connection with this and other similar appointments, no arrangement exists whereby we will receive any fees or benefits from the Company, Philips, or their substantial shareholders or associates.

In formulating our opinion and recommendation, we have reviewed, among other things, the Trademark License Agreement, the Secondary Trademark License Agreement, the Intellectual Property Agreement, the Auxiliary Agreements and the Reversed Auxiliary Agreements, the annual reports of the Company for the two years ended 31 December 2010, the interim report of the Company for the six months ended 30 June 2011, the unaudited quarterly results announcement of the Company for the nine months ended 30 September 2011 and the financial information on the Group, the JV Group and the Enlarged Group as set out in the appendices to the Circular. We have also discussed

– 94 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY with and reviewed information provided by the management of the Company regarding the businesses of the Group and the JV Group and the prospects of the Philips Contributed Business.

In addition, we have relied on the information and facts supplied, and the opinions expressed, by the management of the Company and have assumed that the information and facts provided and opinions expressed to us are true, accurate and complete in all material aspects at the time they were made and will remain true, accurate and complete up to the date of the SGM. We have also sought and received confirmation from the Company that no material facts have been omitted from the information supplied by them and that their opinions expressed to us are not misleading in any material respect. We consider that the information we have received is sufficient for us to formulate our opinion and recommendation as set out in this letter and have no reason to believe that any material information has been withheld, nor to doubt the truth or accuracy of the information provided to us. We have not, however, conducted any independent investigation into the business and affairs of the Group or the JV Group, nor have we carried out any independent verification of the information supplied.

PRINCIPAL FACTORS AND REASONS CONSIDERED

In formulating our opinion and recommendation with regard to the Continuing Connected Transactions, we have taken into account the following principal factors and reasons:

1. Information on the Group

The Group is a leading display solutions provider. The Group designs and produces afullrangeofPCMonitorsandLCDTVsonODMbasis for its distribution worldwide. The Group’s products add value to customers through cost leadership, timely delivery and superior quality. Today, the Group is the world’s largest PC monitor manufacturer and ODM LCD TV maker in terms of unit shipments. The Company is listed on both Hong Kong and Singapore stock exchanges.

2. Reasons for entering into the Continuing Connected Transactions

As set out in the letter from the Board, it is believed that the entering into of the Proposed Transactions, which include the Continuing Connected Transactions, will have the benefits of: (i) solidifying a leading position in LCD TV market; (ii) continuing development needs of the Group; (iii) economies of scale and creation of synergies; (iv) stronger research and development; and (v) enhanced product portfolio. We also consider that the Proposed Transactions allow the Group to acquire more well-known upscale brand products in addition to the brands currently sold by the Group. Furthermore, as integral parts to facilitate the Proposed Transactions, the Intellectual Property Agreement in respect of the transfer and license of patents, know-how and softwaretoJVCoinrelationtotheScopeProducts in the Territory will be entered into at Completion. In addition, the entering into of the Auxiliary Agreements and the Reversed Auxiliary Agreements is premised on the extent that certain operational activities could not be organised on a timely and an independent manner by either the JV Group or the

– 95 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY

Philips Group prior to and after Completion (the ‘‘Transitional Period’’). Therefore, Philips or its members will in principle provide certain transitional services to JVCo or its members (or vice versa) to enable each party to carry out these operational activities during the Transitional Period. It is expected that after the Transitional Period, each party will be able to maintain independent operational and management structures to organise their operational activities independently. In summary, the Continuing Connected Transactions are part and parcel of the Acquisition. It is impracticable for the JV Group to operate after Completion without the Continuing Connected Transactions in place.

Based on the above, we consider that the entering into of the Continuing Connected Transactions is part and parcel of the Acquisition, in the ordinary and usual course of the business of the Company when the Company decided to acquire 70% interest in JVCo and in the interests of the Company and the Independent Shareholders as a whole.

3. Principal terms of the Trademark License Agreement, the Secondary Trademark License Agreement and the Intellectual Property Agreement

(a) The Trademark License Agreement

Pursuant to the Sale and Purchase Agreement, the Group will enter into the Trademark License Agreement in respect of licensing of the Philips Trademarks at Completion.

Parties

(1) Philips, as the licensor

(2) JVCo, as the licensee

Principal terms

As part of the Proposed Transactions and under the Trademark License Agreement, Philips will grant an exclusive (except with respect to Argentina, which will be non-exclusive) right and license to the JV Group for an initial period of five years from the date of Completion, under which the JV Group can use the Philips Trademarks in the Territory, including the right and license to assemble and manufacture outside the Territory for sales, marketing and distribution in the Territory, in relation to the Scope Products, marketing materials, consumer care delivery and the provision of Net TV Services.

– 96 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY

Royalty payable

JVCo will pay a royalty to Philips on an annual basis, which is based on a percentage of the turnover of the Scope Products. Details of the annual royalty payable throughout the License Term (as defined in the paragraph headed ‘‘Term and renewal’’ below) are set out in the table below.

Guaranteed minimum Year of the License Term Annual royalty annual royalty

First year Nil Nil

Second year to fifth year 2.2% of the EUR50.0 million (equivalent Turnover to approximately US$70.0 million)

The royalty shall be payable in arrears by JVCo to Philips in cash (in EUR) within 30 days after the end of each quarter.

The royalty has been arrived at after arm’s length negotiations between the Company and Philips with reference to, among other factors, the historical performance and future prospects of the Philips Contributed Business, including its earnings potential and synergies with the Group.

In assessing the terms of the royalty payable to Philips under the Trademark License Agreement, we have reviewed a number of comparable transactions involving the granting of licenses to use trademarks or brands (the ‘‘Comparable Trademark Transactions’’). The Comparable Trademark Transactions are selected based on the following criteria: (i) one of the parties (including their parent companies) to such transaction is listed on the Stock Exchange; (ii) such transactions are publicly announced by way of announcement made pursuant to the Listing Rules; and (iii) such transactions relate to the granting of licenses to use recognised brands and/or trademarks in relation to TV products and/or display devices (as to primary comparables) or other consumer products (as to secondary comparables). Although some of the Comparable Trademark Transactions (i.e. under the secondary comparables category) involve products not directly related to televisions or display devices products, we consider they provide good references to our analysis on the basis that both the Scope Products and the products under the secondary comparables category are consumer products.

– 97 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY

– 102 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY

As set out in the table above, the annual royalty rate of the primary comparables of the Comparable Trademark Transactions are ranged from 0% to 1.5% of turnover and therefore the annual royalty of 2.2% of the turnover payable under the Trademark License Agreement is above the aforesaid range. The annual royalty rate of the secondary comparables of the Comparable Trademark Transactions are ranged from at least 0.21% to 10.0% of turnover and therefore the annual royalty of 2.2% of the turnover payable under the Trademark License Agreement falls within the range of the secondary comparables of the Comparable Trademark Transactions.

It should be noted that, as discussed in the paragraph headed ‘‘Philips brand promotion and marketing support’’ in this section below, the Group, through JVCo, will be entitled to receive a total amount of EUR185 million (equivalent to approximately US$259 million) from Philips under the Trademark License Agreement. Taking into consideration of this payment and no royalty payment is required for the first year and based on the projected sales amount of the Scope Products, the effective annual royalty rate will decrease to slightly below 1% of the Turnover, which is in line with the primary comparables of the Comparable Trademark Transactions.

The guaranteed minimum annual royalty payable will be EUR50.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$70.0 million) starting from the second year of the License Term.

We have reviewed the sales projection of the JV Group prepared jointly by themanagementoftheGroupandtheJVGroup.Wenotethattheprojected turnover of the JV Group for 2013 will be EUR3,350 million (equivalent to approximately US$4,690 million) and the corresponding royalty will be EUR73.7 million (equivalent to approximately US$103.2 million). The projected turnover of the JV Group is anticipated to increase during the remaining period of the initial 5-year term of the Trademark License Agreement. Therefore, the management of the Group expects that the royalty payable during the License Term will not be less than the guaranteed minimum annual royalty payable of EUR50.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$70.0 million).

In addition, based on the historical turnover of the JV Group, the implied annual royalty at the rate of 2.2% would be approximately EUR82.1 million (equivalent to approximately US$114.9 million), EUR62.1 million (equivalent to approximately US$86.9 million) and EUR64.2 million (equivalent to approximately US$89.9 million) for 2008, 2009 and 2010 respectively, all of which would exceed the guaranteed minimum annual royalty.

Furthermore, as discussed above, Philips will contribute to JVCo a total amount of EUR185 million (equivalent to approximately US$259 million) in the first two years after Completion towards JVCo’s promotion and marketing

– 103 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY activities which benefit the Philips brand. The provision of such funding will reduce the cash outlay of the JV Group for the promotion and marketing activities for the Scope Products and is beneficial to the JV Group.

Based on the above, we consider the pricing terms of the Trademark License Agreement are fair and reasonable.

Term and renewal

The Trademark License Agreement will have an initial term of five years starting from the date of Completion and will be automatically renewed for a subsequent five-year period if JVCo meets certain key performance indicators as set out in the Trademark License Agreement. After the second five-year term, the Trademark License Agreement may be extended by mutual agreement for successive five-year periods against such terms and conditions as may be agreed between Philips and JVCo (but including in any event guaranteed minimum royalty obligations for JVCo) (the ‘‘License Term’’).

Termination

Philips may terminate the Trademark License Agreement by giving JVCo at least 3 months’ written notice if, among others, the following events occur: (i) there is a TPV Change of Control; or (ii) the Company or the JV Group enters into an alliance or joint venture or similar agreement for its TV operations with a company which is considered by Philips as a competitor of Philips.

Each party to the Trademark License Agreement may terminate the Trademark License Agreement by written notice in case of material breach, by the other party of certain terms as set out in the Trademark License Agreement and provided that the aforesaid breaches, which are capable of being cured, have not been cured within the period set out in the Trademark License Agreement.

Non-compete

During the License Term, Philips shall not (other than with respect to Argentina) (i) grant to any other party a license for the use of the Philips Trademarks in the Territory in relation to any Scope Products, whether with or without fee or royalty or (ii) be engaged or involved in the manufacture, assembly, sale, distribution or marketing of any Scope Products in the Territory with the Philips Trademarks, or be interested in any business that is engaged or involved in any of abovementioned activities.

Philips brand promotion and marketing support

Philips will pay to JVCo a total amount of EUR185 million (equivalent to approximately US$259 million), which amount JVCo shall apply towards its promotion and marketing activities which benefit the Philips brand. Such

– 104 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY amount is payable as follows: (i) an initial advance payment of EUR135 million (equivalent to approximately US$189 million) which shall be payable by Philips to JVCo at Completion; and (ii) an additional advance payment of EUR50 million (equivalent to approximately US$70 million) in the second year after Completion which shall be payable by Philips to JVCo.

ConsumercarefortheScopeProductssoldpriortoCompletion

Philips will keep the warranty liabilities for the Scope Products sold prior to Completion (except for certain ScopeProductssuppliedbytheCompanyto Philips under certain arrangement). JVCo shall pay the costs of the warranty claimsrelatedtotherepairandexchangeoftheScopeProductssoldpriorto Completion to the consumer care providers.

Philips shall pay EUR9.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$12.6 million) to JVCo as compensation for JVCo’s cost of organisation to fulfill its consumer care obligations relating to the Scope Products sold prior to Completion (except for certain Scope ProductssuppliedbytheCompanyto Philips under certain arrangement) of which EUR6.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$8.4 million) and the remaining EUR3.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$4.2 million) shall be paid in the first year and the second year from Completion, respectively. From the third year onwards, JVCo shall continue to render the consumer care services for the Scope Products sold prior to Completion (except for certain ScopeProductssuppliedbytheCompanyto Philips under certain arrangement) and Philips and JVCo shall in good faith negotiate a fair compensation for such services based on the actual hours spent.

The consumer care compensation has been arrived at after arm’slength negotiations between the Company and Philips with reference to, among other factors, the number of the Assumed Employees that will work in the consumer care team and quality team of the JV Group, historical trend of claims volumes, historical amount of consumer care expenses and warranty of the Scope Products.

We have reviewed and note that the historical costs in relation to the warranty claims regarding the repair and exchange of the Scope Products to consumer care providers were approximately EUR8.5 million (equivalent to approximately US$11.9 million) per annum. We have also reviewed the historical statistics of the timing of warranty claims made by consumer care providers and the expected split of warranty claims to be made between the Scope Products (except for certain Scope Products supplied by the Company to Philips under certain arrangement) sold prior to and after Completion. Based on the above, it is estimated that approximately 65% (approximately EUR5.5 million (equivalent to approximately US$7.6 million)) and 32% (approximately EUR2.7 million (equivalent to approximately US$3.8 million)) of the warranty claimswouldbemadeinthefirstandsecondyearssubsequenttoCompletion while those in the third year and onwards would not be very significant. Given

– 105 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY

the total compensation to JVCo to fulfill its consumer care obligations relating to the Scope Products (except for certain Scope Products supplied by the Company to Philips under certain arrangement) sold prior to Completion will be EUR9.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$12.6 million), which exceed the estimated costs, we consider the total compensation amount is fair and reasonable.

(b) The Secondary Trademark License Agreement

Pursuant to the Sale and Purchase Agreement, the Secondary Trademark License Agreement in respect of licensing of the Philips Secondary Trademarks will be entered into at Completion.

Parties

(1) Philips, as the licensor

(2) JVCo, as the licensee

Principal terms

As part of the Proposed Transactions and under the Secondary Trademark License Agreement, Philips will grant an exclusive right and license to the JV Group for an initial period of five years from the date of Completion, under which the JV Group can use the Philips Secondary Trademarks in the Territory, including the right and license to assemble and manufacture outside the Territory for sales, marketing and distribution in the Territory, in relation to the Secondary Trademark Scope Products, marketing materials and consumer care delivery.

Royalty payable

JVCo will pay a royalty to Philips on an annual basis, which is based on 1% oftheturnoveroftheSecondaryTrademarkScopeProducts.Theroyaltyshall be payable in arrears by JVCo to Philips in cash (in EUR) within 30 days after the end of each quarter.

The royalty has been arrived at after arm’s length negotiations between the Company and Philips with reference to, among other factors, the historical performance and future prospects of the Philips Contributed Business in respect of the Philips Secondary Trademarks, including its earnings potential and synergies with the Group.

As set out in the table of the Comparable Trademark Transactions in the section 3(a) headed ‘‘The Trademark License Agreement’’ above, the annual royalty rate of primary comparables and the secondary comparables of the Comparable Trademark Transactions are ranging from 0% to 1.5% and from at

– 106 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY least 0.21% to 10.0% of turnover respectively and therefore the annual royalty rate of 1.0% of the turnover payable under the Secondary Trademark License Agreement is within the range of the Comparable Trademark Transactions.

Furthermore, there will be no guaranteed minimum annual royalty payable under the Secondary Trademark License Agreement. The absence of such minimum royalty payment is favorable to the Company as the JV Group has the flexibility to sell the Secondary Trademark Scope Products only when it is beneficial to do so.

Term and renewal

The Secondary Trademark License Agreement will have an initial term of five years starting from the date of Completion and will be automatically renewed for subsequent five-year periods, provided that the Trademark License Agreement has been extended as well.

Termination

The Secondary Trademark License Agreement will terminate automatically upon the termination of the Trademark License Agreement. Philips may terminate the Secondary Trademark License Agreement by giving JVCo at least 3months’ written notice if, among others, the following events occur: (i) there is a TPV Change of Control; or (ii) the Company or the JV Group enters into an alliance or joint venture or similar agreement for its TV operations with a company which is considered by Philips as a competitor of Philips.

Each party to the Secondary Trademark License Agreement may terminate the Secondary Trademark License Agreement by written notice in case of material breach by the other party to the Secondary Trademark License Agreement, of certain terms as set out in the Secondary Trademark License Agreement and provided that the aforesaid breaches, which are capable of being cured, have not been cured within the period set out in the Secondary Trademark License Agreement.

Non-compete

During the Secondary Trademarks License Term, Philips shall not (i) grant to any other party a license for the use of the Philips Secondary Trademarks in the Territory in relation to any Secondary Trademark Scope Products, whether with or without fee or royalty or (ii) be engaged or involved in the manufacture, assembly, sale, distribution or marketingofanySecondaryTrademarkScope Products in the Territory with the Philips Secondary Trademarks, or be interested in any business that is engaged or involved in any of abovementioned activities.

Philips will assign and agree to transfer and will cause its members to assign and transfer to JVCo, effective as of the Completion Date, all of Philips’ and, as applicable, its members’ rights, title and interest in and to the Transfer Patents (excluding the right to sue for past infringements) at no cost, subject to an unrestricted license under the Transfer Patents to be retained by Philips.

(ii) Licensed Patents

Philips will grant JVCo, effective as of the Completion Date, a non- exclusive, non-transferable, non-encumberable, fully paid-up and royalty-free license, without the right to grant sublicenses (other than the rights to have Philips-branded Scope Products made by a third party outside or inside the Territory solely for the use, sale or other disposal by licensee of Philips-branded Scope Products within the Territory), under the Licensed Patents, for the continued use of the Licensed Patents in (i) Philips-branded Scope Products and (ii) the Net TV Portal, in each case limited to the Territory.

(iii) 3D Patents

In the event Philips asserts any 3D Patents against suppliers of JVCo, and where such a supplier pays Philips a royalty for any 3D Patents in respect of display panels or components supplied to JVCo for use in Philips-branded Scope Products in the Territory, Philips will pay to JVCo 70% of the 3D Patent royalty revenue (after deduction of any taxes, agent fees, bank and administration costs) it has received for such supplied display panels or components.

(iv) Business know-how

Philips will assign and transfer to JVCo all its rights, title and interest in and to certain business know-how, being know-how owned by Philips and/or its members, which originated within the Philips Contributed Business and

– 108 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY which is solely used within the Philips Contributed Business as of the Completion Date, subject to an unrestricted license under such business know-how to be retained by Philips.

Philips will grant to JVCo a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non- encumberable, fully paid-up and royalty-free license, without the right to grant sublicenses under certain other know-how of Philips, to the extent that such know-how is used within the Philips Contributed Business, for the continued use of such know-how in Philips-branded Scope Products in the Territory.

(v) Business software

Philips will assign and transfer to JVCo all its rights, title and interest in and to certain business software owned by Philips and/or its members, which originated in the Philips Contributed Business, and which is solely used within the Philips Contributed Business as of the Completion Date (excluding the right to sue for past infringements), subject to an unrestricted license under such business software to be retained by Philips.

Philips will grant to JVCo an irrevocable, royalty-free, non-exclusive and non-transferable license under certain other software of Philips to use (in the broadest sense) such software within the scope of the Philips Contributed Business in the Territory, including without limitation, the right to modify, create derivative works, the right to have Philips-branded Scope Products manufactured by a third party outside or inside the Territory solely for the use, sale or other disposal by JVCo of Philips-branded Scope Products within the Territory and the right to grant sublicenses in the context of and to the extent necessary for selling or marketing Philips-branded Scope Products.

(vi) Design rights

Philips will grant JVCo, effective as of the Completion Date, a non- exclusive, non-transferable, non-encumberable, fully paid-up and royalty-free license, without the right to grant sublicenses (other than the rights to have Philips-branded Scope Products made by a third party outside or inside the Territory solely for the use, sale or other disposal by JVCo of the Scope Products within the Territory), under certain registered design rights of Philips as set out in the Intellectual Property Agreement and any unregistered design rights and/ or copyrights on non-technical designs of the Scope Products owned by any members of the Philips Group which are used within the Philips Contributed Business as of the Completion Date, for the continued use of such registered design rights in Philips-branded Scope Products, in each case limited to the Territory.

– 109 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY

Pricing

The transfers and licenses of the aforementioned patents, business know- how, business software and design rights shall be on a royalty-free basis. As the relevant intellectual properties are essential for the Philips Contributed Business, we are of the view that the royalty-free arrangement is beneficial to the Company.

JVCo shall also be entitled to receive from Philips a rebate of 70% of the 3D Patent royalty. The consideration for the patents, business know-how, business software and design rights and the 3D Patent royalty rebate have been arrived at after arm’s length negotiations between the Company and Philips.

Although JVCo shall be entitled to receive 70% of the 3D Patent royalty rebate from Philips, we are of the view that such arrangement may not be favourable to JVCo on the basis that the suppliers of JVCo, which will make the 3D Patent royalty payment to Philips, may pass on such additional cost and raisethepriceofproductstobesoldtoJVCoinlongrun.Inotherword,JVCo may indirectly subsidise 30% of 3D Patent royalty payment to Philips as a result of the aforesaid arrangement. Based on our discussion with the management of the Group and after considering the anticipated 3D Patent royalty rate of not exceeding EUR1.5 (equivalent to approximately US$2.1) per panel and the projected production volume of the Philips-branded Scope Products (with 3D Patents in respect of display panels or components) in the Territory of not more than 250,000 units, 500,000 units and 1 million units for the first, second and third year of the term of the IntellectualPropertyAgreement,thetotalamount of the 3D Patent royalty rebate shared by Philips is anticipated to be insignificant as compared to the projected turnover of the JV Group. Having taken into account the terms of the Proposed Transactions, we consider the pricing terms of the Intellectual Property Agreement are acceptable.

Term and renewal

The Intellectual Property Agreement shall commence on the Completion Date and any license granted by Philips under the Intellectual Property Agreement shall continue in force until, among other things, the date that the Trademark License Agreement has terminated.

Termination

Any license granted by Philips under the Intellectual Property Agreement can be terminated by Philips by giving notice thereof to JVCo in case of a material breach by JVCo or any of the members of the JV Group of any of its obligations under the Intellectual Property Agreement, which breach is not curable, or if curable, is not cured within 30 calendar days written notice by Philips to JVCo specifying such breach and requiring it to be remedied.

Pricing

The prices for the transitional services provided shall be either (i) on normal commercial terms (as defined in the Listing Rules) and determined on an arm’s length basis having regard to the price levels applicable to the Philips Contributed Business immediately prior to Completion or (ii) on terms more beneficial to the JV Group, except for the prices for services relating to office space, for which the price shall be the lower of the price level applicable to the Philips Contributed Business immediately prior to Completion and the market

price as established by a reputable broker. The prices for the transitional services have been arrived at after arm’s length negotiations between the Company and Philips.

Given the pricing will be determined based on normal commercial terms or on terms more beneficial to the JV Group (except for the prices for services relating to office space, which shall be the lower of the prior price level and the market price), we are of the view that the terms of the Transitional Services Agreement are on normal commercial terms and are fair and reasonable.

We have discussed with the management of the Group and they considered that the IT services and applications currently utilised or to be utilised in the year after Completion by the JV Group have been included in the EUR20.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$28.0 million) IT service package. Based on the financial information on the JV Group, the total IT services cost incurred by the JV Group were approximately EUR58.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$81.2 million), EUR44.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$61.6 million) and EUR40.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$56.0 million) for 2008, 2009 and 2010 respectively. Given the IT services to be provided under the IT Transitional Service Level Agreement will be similar to those in the past, the payment of EUR20 million (equivalent to approximately US$28.0 million) by JVCo for the IT services under the IT Transitional Service Level Agreement is favourable to the Company. Moreover, additional IT services shall be charged on terms and fees to be agreed by both parties and based on normal commercial terms, or on terms no less favourable to JVCo than terms available from independent third parties.

In deviation of the termination provision of the Transitional Services Agreement, JVCo shall be entitled to terminate each IT service on prior notice to Philips, where possible taking into account a notice term of at least 30 calendar days.

The lease payment and the additional condominium charge were determined with reference to, among other factors, (i) the market rate of the rental in similar area; (ii) the size of the area of the subject property; (iii) the general market price index; and (iv) the actual amount of condominium expenditure incurred by Philips Brazil.

We have reviewed an independent valuation of the market rates of similar properties in the same area and rental rates paid by the factories of the Group operated in the similar area. We note that lease payment amount under the Brazil Lease Agreement is in line with the prevailing market rates. The inflation adjustment clause will result in the future rental payment continue to be aligned with the future market rental in general. The condominium charges will be determined based on the actual expenditure and apportionment parameters as set out in the Brazil Lease Agreement. We have reviewed the apportionment parameters and we consider the basis of apportionment is reasonable. Based on the above, we consider the pricing terms of the Brazil Lease Agreement are fair and reasonable.

Term and renewal

The Brazil Lease Agreement shall commence on Completion and shall continue in force for 2 years. Thereafter the term of the Brazil Lease Agreement may be extended at the discretion of Philips Brazil for an additional term of 1 year. Subject to compliance with the Listing Rules, the Brazil Lease Agreement may also be renewed for the same period by mutual agreement between the parties to the Brazil Lease Agreement.

Termination

The Brazil Lease Agreement may be terminated or rescinded before the term of the Brazil Lease Agreement (i) by Philips Brazil in writing in advance of 180 days; (ii) in the event of bankruptcy, insolvency or dissolution of any of party to the Brazil Lease Agreement; and (iii) default of any clauses or conditions of the Brazil Lease Agreement by either party to the Brazil Lease Agreement.

(e) Amendment to the Dixtal Lease Agreement

The Dixtal Lease Agreement in respect of the lease by Philips Brazil to Dixtal of an industrial property of 2,880 square metres at Avenida Torquato Tapajós, No. 2236, Bairro Flores, municipality of Manaus, Amazonas state, Brazil (‘‘Manaus Manufacturing Plant’’) was entered into on 22 September 2009. Pursuant to the Disentanglement, TP Vision Brazil will become owner of the Manaus Manufacturing

– 121 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY

Plant at Completion. As such, TP Vision Brazil will enter into an amendment agreement to the Dixtal Lease Agreement with Philips Brazil and Dixtal as set out below.

Parties

(1) TP Vision Brazil, as the landlord

(2) Philips Brazil, as the original lessor

(3) Dixtal, as the lessee

Principal terms

Pursuant to the Amendment to the Dixtal Lease Agreement, TP Vision Brazil will replace Philips Brazil in the Dixtal Lease Agreement and will continue to lease part of the Manaus Manufacturing Plant to Dixtal.

Pricing

The lease payment is R$27,014.4 (equivalent to approximately US$16,962) per month, which shall be adjusted annually by the variation of the general market price index, and additional condominium charge based on defined pro- rating keys. The lease payment and the additional condominium charge were determined with reference to, among other factors, (i) the monthly rental payment as agreed in the Amendment to the Dixtal Lease Agreement (ii) the market rate of the rental in similar area; (iii) the size of the area of the property, (iv) the general market price index; and (v) the actual amount of condominium expenditure incurred by Dixtal.

We have reviewed an independent valuation of the market rates of similar properties in the same area and the rental rates paid by the factories of the Group operated in similar area. We note that lease payment amount under the Dixtal Lease Agreement (as amended) is close to the lower end of the range of the prevailing market rates. The inflation adjustment clause will result in the future rental payment continue to be aligned with the future market rental in general. The condominium charges will be determined based on the actual expenditure and apportionment parameters as set out in the Amendment to the Dixtal Lease Agreement. We have reviewed the apportionment parameters and we consider the basis of apportionment is reasonable. Based on the above and after having considered that the undercharged lease payment amount is not very material in terms of the Proposed Transactions as a whole, we consider the pricing terms of the Dixtal Lease Agreement (as amended) are acceptable.

Term and renewal

The Dixtal Lease Agreement commenced on 1 August 2009 and will expire as of 31 July 2014.

– 122 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY

Termination

The Dixtal Lease Agreement may be terminated or ended prior to the term (i) by both parties in writing in advance of 180 days; (ii) in the event of bankruptcy, insolvency or dissolution of either party; and (iii) default of any clauses or conditions of the Dixtal Lease Agreement by either party.

We have reviewed the actual expenditure incurred for the aforesaid operations in the subject building and the apportionment parameters in respect of the services to be provided to Philips Hungary, and we consider the basis of apportionment is reasonable. In addition, given the services not covered in the Hungary Lease and Service Agreement will be agreed by both parties at arm’s length basis and based on normal commercial terms, or on terms no more

The service fees have been arrived at after arm’s length negotiations between the Company and Philips. The costs of services not covered in the Tax Audit Service Agreement will be agreed by both partiesonanarm’s length basis and based on normal commercial terms, or on terms no more favourable to Philips Hungary than terms available to independent third parties.

– 124 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY

We have reviewed of the Tax Audit Service Agreement and we note that the services will be charged based on the numbers of hours incurred by the relevant personnel and the hourly rate of EUR50 (equivalent to approximately US$70). Based on our discussion with the management of the Group, they considered that the aforesaid hourly rate is in line with the cost of services to be performed by relevant level of personnel. Additional items will be agreed based on normal commercial terms, or on terms no more favourable to Philips Hungary than terms available to independent third parties. Based on the above, we consider the pricing terms of the Tax Audit Service Agreement are fair and reasonable.

Term and renewal

The Tax Audit Service Agreement shall commence on the Completion Date and shall continue in force until 31 March 2013 or completion of the services, whichever is earlier.

Based on the above and given (i) the independent non-executive Directors will, pursuant to Rule 14A.37 of the Listing Rules, review, amongst other things, whether the Continuing Connected Transactions are conducted on normal terms; and (ii) the auditors of the Company, for the purpose of Rule 14A.38 of the Listing Rules, will review, amongst other things, whether the Continuing Connected Transactions are conducted in accordance with the terms of the relevant agreement, we are of the view that (i) the overall terms under the Trademark License Agreement, the Secondary Trademark License Agreement, the Intellectual Property Agreement, the Auxiliary Agreement, the Reversed Auxiliary Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder are on normal commercial terms and are fairly and reasonably determined; and (ii) adequate measures have been put in place, as required under the Listing Rules mentioned above, to monitor the Continuing Connected Transactions in order to protect the interests of the Company and the Independent Shareholders.

6. Reasons for term in excess of three years

JVCo and Philips have agreed to enter into the Trademark License Agreement, the Secondary Trademark License Agreement and the Intellectual Property Agreement for a period in excess of three years (i.e. for an initial term of five years) as normally required under the Listing Rules after arm’s length negotiations among JVCo, the Company and Philips. The term in excess of three years is beneficial to the Company because (i) any term shorter than the License Term would increase the risks associated with, and lower the returns on, the Group’s investment in its brand building of the Philips Contributed Business; (ii) following Completion, the Group is expected to invest substantial management effort to broaden the Philips Contributed Business’ product range and market share, the benefits of which will extend beyond three years; and (iii) it is the intention of the Company to strengthen the Philips Contributed Business and the presence of the Philips Trademarks and the Philips Secondary Trademarks in the markets in which the Scope Products are sold.

– 125 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY

In arriving at our opinion, we have relied on the intentions of the Company as described in this section. In considering whether it is normal business practice for contracts of a similar nature to the Trademark License Agreement, the Secondary Trademark License Agreement and the Intellectual Property Agreement to have a term of such duration, we have reviewed a number of comparable transactions involving the granting of licences to use intellectual properties, trademarks and/or brands (the ‘‘Comparable Licensing Transactions’’). The Comparable Licensing Transactions selected are based on the following criteria: (i) one of the parties (including their parent companies) to such transaction is listed on the Stock Exchange; (ii) such transactions are publicly announced by way of announcement made pursuant to the Listing Rules; and (iii) such transactions relate to the granting of licences to use intellectual properties, recognised brands and/or trademarks of consumer electronic products (including TVs and display devices). We note that the terms of the Comparable Licensing Transactions are ranging from five to twenty years. Accordingly, the License Term falls on the lower end of the range of the terms of the Comparable Licensing Transactions. On the basis of the above and having considered the annual guaranteed minimum amount of royalty payable under the Trademark License Agreement, we are of the view that the License Term (i.e. for an initial term of five years) balances the business risk of and the benefit expected to be generated from the Philips Contributed Business.

Having considered that (i) the distribution of the Scope Products under the Philips Trademarks and the Philips Secondary Trademarks requires a medium to long term commitment; (ii) the License Term of longer than three years would facilitate the Group’s continuous marketing initiatives and generate income from the Philips Contributed Business for a longer period; (iii) any term shorter than the License Term would increase the risks associated with, and lower the returns on, any investment made by the Group in relation to its brand building of the Philips Contributed Business; (iv) the Group is expected to invest substantial management effort to broaden the Philips Contributed Business’ product range and market share, the benefits of which will extend beyond three years; (v) the intellectual properties under the Intellectual Property Agreement are essential for the operations of the Philips Contributed Business; (vi) the terms of the Comparable Licensing Transactions are ranging from five to twenty years; and (vii) it is economically beneficial for the Group to avoid renegotiating the terms of the Trademark License Agreement, the Secondary Trademark License Agreement and the Intellectual Property Agreement after three years as it is expected that the Group will take the first one or two years to streamline the operations of the JV Group and the benefits of the Acquisition and the entering into of the Trademark License Agreement, the Secondary Trademark License Agreement and the Intellectual Property Agreement are likely to be materialised beyond the third year, we are of the view that a term of longer than three years is required for the Trademark License Agreement, the Secondary Trademark License Agreement and the Intellectual Property Agreement and confirms that it is normal business practice for contracts similar to this type to be of such duration.

7. The Annual Caps

(a) The royalty under the Trademark License Agreement

Set out below is a summary of the Annual Caps for the royalty payable by JVCo to Philips under the Trademark License Agreement for the financial year ending 31 December 2012 up to and including the financial year ending 31 December 2017.

For the year ending 31 December 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017

In EUR (million) Nil 81.4 91.3 96.8 100.1 50.1

Approximately equivalent US$ (million) Nil 114.0 127.8 135.5 140.1 70.1

The Annual Caps for the royalty payable by JVCo to Philips under the Trademark License Agreement were determined by the Company after taking into account, amongst other things, (i) the Group’s estimates for the increase in the future demand for the Scope Products, which was determined with reference to the historical and estimated future demand and production trend for the Scope Products; (ii) the prospects, outlook and the competitive environment of the global market for the Scope Products; (iii) the pricing trend for the Scope Products; and (iv) additional buffers to cater for possible fluctuation of materials costs as a result of possible changes in market conditions.

In assessing the fairness and reasonableness of the aforesaid Annual Caps, we have reviewed the followings:

(i) Historical and projected sales volumes of the Scope Products

The projected sales volumes of the JV Group are determined with reference to the historical sales volumes of the Scope Products. The historical sales volumes of the JV Group were approximately 8.6 million units, approximately 7.7 million units and approximately 7.7 million units for 2008, 2009 and 2010 respectively. We have reviewed the projected sales volumes of the JV Group jointly prepared by the management of the Group and the JV Group and we note that they are generally in line with the projected sales volumes of TVs in general estimated by an independent industry researcher.

(ii) Unit sales price of the Scope Products

The projected unit sales price of the Scope Products is determined with reference to the historical unit sales price of the Scope Products and the projected unit sales price of similar models of TVs in the market. We have reviewed the projected average unit sales price of the Scope Products and we note that the pricing trend is in line with that of similar models of TVs in the market estimated by the independent industry researcher.

– 127 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY

(iii) Buffer to accommodate changes in market conditions

In light of the volatility of the industry that the JV Group is involved in, a buffer of 10% for each of the five years ending 31 December 2017 has been added to the aforesaid Annual Caps. The management of the Group were of the view that sales price of the Scope Products and cost of goods sold might change considerably subject to the then prevailing market demand and conditions. Based on our review of the historical average selling prices of the Group’sTV products, we note that average selling prices have varied significantly and might fluctuate by more than 10% in the same year. Accordingly, we are of the view that a buffer of 10% is reasonable and will allow more flexibility to the Group when market conditions change.

(iv) Possible change of the Completion Date

The Trademark License Agreement will commence on the Completion Date, which may not fall at the beginning of the financial year of the Group. The actual payment date therefore will be subject to change due to the possible change of the Completion Date. As a result, part of the payment in the fifth year of the term of the Trademark License Agreement may fall into 2017. The Annual Cap for 2017, which represents the amount for less than one full year, therefore is less than the Annual Cap for 2016, which represents a full year amount. We have reviewed the estimation of the aforesaid Annual Caps due to the possible change of the Completion Date and we consider the estimation is reasonable.

(v) Direct relationship between royalty payment and turnover of the JV Group

The royalty payment is equivalentto2.2%oftheTurnover.Ahigher royalty payment implies a higher revenue generated by JVCo, which is in turn beneficial to JVCo and the Group. Accordingly, a higher annual cap for royalty payment gives room to generate higherrevenuefortheJVGroupandthe Group.

Having considered the basis on which the Annual Caps for the royalty payable by JVCo to Philips under the Trademark License Agreement were determined as described above, we are of the view that the aforesaid Annual Caps are fair and reasonable.

– 128 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY

(b) The consumer care compensation for the Scope Products sold prior to Completion under the Trademark License Agreement

Set out below is a summary of the Annual Caps for the consumer care compensation payable by Philips to JVCo for the financial year ending 31 December 2012 up to and including the financial year ending 31 December 2017.

In EUR (million) 6.00 4.50 1.88 0.44 0.07 0.02

Approximately equivalent US$ (million) 8.40 6.30 2.63 0.62 0.10 0.03

The Annual Caps were determined by the Company after taking into account, amongst other things, (i) the compensation for JVCo’s cost of organisation to fulfill its consumer care obligations relating to the Scope Products sold prior to Completion (except for certain Scope Products supplied by the Company to Philips under certain arrangement) as agreed in the Trademark License Agreement; and (ii) possible change of the Completion Date.

In assessing the fairness and reasonableness of the aforesaid Annual Caps, we have reviewed the followings:

(i) Consumer care compensation agreed under the Trademark License Agreement

Pursuant to the Trademark License Agreement, the consumer care compensation payable by Philips to JVCo will be EUR6.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$8.4 million) and EUR3.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$4.2 million) for the first and second years from Completion. We have reviewed computation and we note the estimation of the aforesaid Annual Caps has incorporated the above amounts.

From the third year onwards, Philips and JVCo shall in good faith negotiate a fair compensation for consumer care services based on the actual hoursspent.Wehavealsoreviewedthehistorical statistics of the timing of claims made by consumer care providers and the expected split of claims made between the Scope Products sold prior to and after Completion (except for certain Scope Products supplied by the Company to Philips under certain arrangement) from the third year onwards, we note that the expected amounts of claims will be approximately EUR0.76 million (equivalent to approximately US$1.06 million), EUR0.11 million (equivalent to approximately US$0.15 million) and EUR0.03 million (equivalent to approximately US$0.04 million) for the third, fourth and fifth years from Completion. We have reviewed computation and we note the estimation of the aforesaid Annual Caps has incorporated the above amounts.

– 129 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY

(ii) Possible change of the Completion Date

The Trademark License Agreement will commence on the Completion Date, which may not fall at the beginning of the financial year of the Group. The actual payment date therefore will be subject to change due to the possible change of the Completion Date as discussed above. We have reviewed the estimationoftheaforesaidAnnualCapsduetothepossiblechangeofthe Completion Date and we consider the estimation is reasonable.

Having considered the basis on which the Annual Caps for the consumer care compensation were determined as described above, we are of the view that the aforesaid Annual Caps are fair and reasonable.

(c) The royalty under the Secondary Trademark License Agreement

Set out below is a summary of the Annual Caps for the royalty payable by JVCo to Philips under the Secondary Trademark License Agreement for the financial year ending 31 December 2012 up to and including the financial year ending 31 December 2017.

For the year ending 31 December 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017

In EUR (million) 1.10 1.98 3.30 4.62 6.05 3.03

Approximately equivalent US$ (million) 1.54 2.77 4.62 6.47 8.47 4.24

The Annual Caps were determined by the Company after taking into account, amongst other things, (i) the Group’s estimates of future demand and production trend for the Secondary Trademark Scope Products; (ii) the prospects, outlook and the competitive environment of the global market for the Secondary Trademark Scope Products; (iii) the pricing trend for the Secondary Trademark Scope Products; and (iv) additional buffers to cater for possible fluctuation of materials costs as a result of possible changes in market conditions.

In assessing the fairness and reasonableness of the aforesaid Annual Caps, we have reviewed the followings:

(i) Projected sales volume of the Secondary Trademark Scope Products

Based on our discussion with the management of the Group, we note that there was no sale of the Secondary Trademark Scope Products in the last few years. It is the intention of the management of the Group and the JV Group that the JV Group will launch the Secondary Trademark Scope Products, which equipped with basic features of TVs, to the western European countries. Based on the business plan jointly prepared by the management of the Group and the JV Group, the projected sales volumes of the Secondary Trademark Scope

– 130 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY

Products, in the best scenario, will be approximately 0.3 million units, 0.6 million units, 1.0 million units, 1.5 million units and 2.1 million units for each of the five years from Completion. We have reviewed the historical sales volume of TV of less-known brands and we note there were significant growths of shipment of these products in the last two years. After considering the historical trend of sales volume of TV of less-known brands, we are of the view that the projected sales volumes of the Secondary Trademark Scope Products are within a reasonable range.

(ii) Unit price of sales

TheunitpriceofsalesundertheaforesaidAnnualCapsaredetermined with reference to the projected unit salepriceoftheScopeProducts,i.e.theTV products with the Philips Trademarks. Given brand names of the Secondary Trademark Scope Products are less-known to the consumer market, it is the intention of the management of the Group to price the Secondary Trademark ScopeProductsatadiscounttothepriceoftheScopeProducts.Wehave reviewed target pricing level of the Secondary Trademark Scope Products and the historical discount of pricing of certain secondary brand products sold by the Group in the past, we note the pricing discount applied in the estimation of the aforesaid Annual Caps is within a reasonable range.

(iii) Buffer to accommodate changes in market conditions

Similar to the Annual Caps for the royalty payable under the Trademark License Agreement, a buffer of 10% for each of the five years ending 31 December 2017 has been added to the Annual Caps for the royalty payable under the Secondary Trademark License Agreement. Likewise, we are of the view that a buffer of 10% is reasonable and will allow more flexibility to the Group when market conditions change.

(iv) Possible change of the Completion Date

The Secondary Trademark License Agreement will commence on the Completion Date, which may not fall at the beginning of the financial year of the Group. The actual payment date therefore will be subject to change due to thepossiblechangeoftheCompletionDate as discussed above. Therefore the Annual Cap for 2017, which represents the amount for less than one full year, is less than the Annual Cap for 2016, which represents a full year amount. We have reviewed the estimation of the aforesaid Annual Caps due to the possible change of the Completion Date and we consider the estimation is reasonable.

– 131 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY

(v) Direct relationship between royalty payment and turnover of the JV Group

The royalty payment is equivalent to 1.0% of the turnover. A higher royalty payment implies a higher revenue generated by JVCo, which is in turn beneficial to JVCo and the Group. Accordingly, a higher annual cap for royalty payment gives room to generate higherrevenuefortheJVGroupandthe Group.

Having considered the basis on which the Annual Caps for the royalty payable by JVCo to Philips under the Secondary Trademark License Agreement were determined as described above, we are of the view that the aforesaid Annual Caps are fair and reasonable.

(d) The Intellectual Property Agreement

Set out below is a summary of the Annual Caps for the 3D Patent royalty rebate payable by Philips to JVCo under the Intellectual Property Agreement for the financial year ending 31 December 2012 up to and including the financial year ending 31 December 2015.

For the year ending 31 December 2012 2013 2014 2015

In EUR 262,500 525,000 1,050,000 525,000

Approximately equivalent US$ 367,500 735,000 1,470,000 735,000

The Annual Caps were determined by the Company after taking into account, amongst other things, (i) the Group’s estimates for the increase in the future demand for the Scope Products (utilising any 3D Patents), which was determined with reference to the estimated future demand and production trend for the Scope Products; (ii) the prospects, outlook and the competitive environment of the global market for the Scope Products; (iii) the pricing trend for the Scope Products; (iv) the sharing percentage of the 3D Patents royalty rebate as agreed in the Intellectual Property Agreement; (v) the estimated 3D Patents royalty rate; and (vi) possible change of the Completion Date.

In assessing the fairness and reasonableness of the aforesaid Annual Caps, we have reviewed the followings:

(i) Projected sales volume of the Scope Products with 3D technology

Based on our discussion with the management of the Group, no Scope Products with three-dimensional (‘‘3D’’) technology has been sold by the JV Group so far. It is currently anticipated that the Scope Products with 3D technology will be rolled out to the market as soon as in 2012 and the projected sales volumes will not be more than 250,000 units, 500,000 units and 1 million units for the first, second and third years from Completion respectively. We

– 132 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY

have reviewed the projected sales volumes of the Scope Products of the JV Group and we note that the projected sales volumes of the Scope Products with 3D technology represent approximately 2.8% 5.0% and 8.3% of that of the Scope Products for each of the three years from Completion respectively. After considering the Scope Products with 3D technology have not launched to the market so far and percentages to the projected sales volumes of the total Scope Products, we consider the projected maximum sales volumes of the Scope Products with 3D technology is reasonable.

(ii) Sharing percentage of the 3D Patents royalty rebate

As set out in the Intellectual Property Agreement, JVCo shall be entitled to receive 70% of the 3D Patent royalty rebate from Philips. We have reviewed and note the computation of the aforesaid Annual Caps has taken into account such sharing percentage.

(iii) Estimated 3D Patents royalty

As discussed with the management of the Group, we note that no 3D Patent royalty has been asserted against any suppliers by Philips so far. Based on the experience of the Group’s management, it is anticipated that the royalty rate will not exceed EUR 1.5 (equivalent to approximately US$2.1) per panel.

(iv) Possible change of the Completion Date

The Intellectual Property Agreement will commence on the Completion Date, which may not fall at the beginning of the financial year of the Group. The actual payment date therefore will be subject to change due to the possible change of the Completion Date as discussed above. We have reviewed the estimationoftheaforesaidAnnualCapsduetothepossiblechangeofthe Completion Date and we consider the estimation is reasonable.

Having considered the basis on which the Annual Caps for the 3D Patent royalty rebate payable by Philips to JVCo under the Intellectual Property Agreement were determined as described above, we are of the view that the aforesaid Annual Caps are fair and reasonable.

(e) The Transitional Services Agreement

Set out below is a summary of the Annual Caps for the service fee payable for the transitional services by the JV Group to the Philips Group under the Transitional Services Agreement for the financial year ending 31 December 2012 up to and including the financial year ending 31 December 2015.

For the year ending 31 December 2012 2013 2014 2015

In EUR (million) 24.61 19.32 9.48 2.47

Approximately equivalent US$ (million) 34.45 27.05 13.27 3.46

The Annual Caps were determined by the Company after taking into account, amongst other things, (i) expected volume of the services to be supplied by the Philips Group; (ii) the pricing of the services; (iii) a buffer for additional services; and (iv) possible change of the Completion Date.

In assessing the fairness and reasonableness of the aforesaid Annual Caps, we have reviewed the followings:

(i) Expected volume of the services

We have discussed and reviewed the historical and the expected volumes of the services under the Transitional Services Agreement with the management oftheGroup.Wenotethattheexpected volume of the services has been adjusted based on the anticipated usage of the relevant services (e.g. number of headcounts and hours performing services, area size of building, etc.) and the duration of the relevant services required for the JV Group after Completion. In the event that the relevant services can be replaced ‘‘in-house’’ by the Group or provided by third party vendors, such services are accordingly reduced in the estimation of the aforesaid Annual Caps.

(ii) Pricing of the services

We have reviewed the pricing of the transitional services and we note that the pricing is determined either based on current price levels applicable to the Philips Business or the anticipated actual costs to be incurred by the Philips Group.

(iii) Buffer to accommodate changes in market conditions and potential taxes

Similar to the Annual Caps for the royalty payable under the Trademark License Agreement and the Secondary Trademark License Agreement, a buffer of 10% for each of the four years ending 31 December 2015 has been added to the Annual Caps for the service fee payable for the transitional services under the Transitional Services Agreement. Similarly, we are of the view that a buffer

– 134 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY

of 10% is reasonable and will allow more flexibility to the Group when market conditions change as well as potential taxes are payable by the Group for the services rendered by the members of the Philips Group.

(iv) Possible change of the Completion Date

The Transitional Services Agreement will commence on the Completion Date, which may not fall at the beginning of the financial year of the Group. The actual payment date therefore will be subject to change due to the possible change of the Completion Date as discussed above.

The Annual Caps have been determined by the Company after taking into account, amongst other things, (i) the fixed fee of EUR20.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$28.0 million) for the IT services as agreed under the IT Transitional Service Agreement; (ii) a buffer for additional IT services; and (iii) possiblechangeoftheCompletionDate.

In assessing the fairness and reasonableness of the aforesaid Annual Caps, we have reviewed the followings:

(i) The fixed fee agreed under the IT Transitional Service Level Agreement

The total fee agreed for the provision of IT services under the IT Transitional Service Level Agreement is fixed at EUR20.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$28.0 million). Based on our discussion with the management of the Group, we note that they considered that the EUR20.0

million (equivalent to approximately US$28.0 million) IT service package has included all necessary IT services and applications to be required for the operations of the JV Group in the year after Completion. We have reviewed and we note that the EUR20.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$28.0 million) has been included in the computation of the aforesaid Annual Caps.

(ii) Buffer for additional IT services

As discussed with the management of the Group, the EUR20 million (equivalent to approximately US$28.0 million) IT service package has covered all the IT services required for the JV Group during the term of the IT Transitional Service Level Agreement as envisaged by the management of the Group. In light of the potential developments in new products and/or markets where additional IT services may be required, we are of the view that a buffer of 20% is reasonable.

(iii) Possible change of the Completion Date

The IT Transitional Service Level Agreement will commence on the Completion Date, which may not fall at the beginning of the financial year of the Group. The actual payment date therefore will be subject to change due to the possible change of the Completion Date as discussed above. We have reviewed the estimation of the aforesaid Annual Caps due to the possible change of the Completion Date and we consider the estimation is reasonable.

Having considered the basis on which the Annual Caps for the service fee payable for the IT transitional services under the IT Transitional Service Level Agreement were determined as described above, we are of the view that the aforesaid Annual Caps are fair and reasonable.

(g) The Remote Control Sale Agreement

SetoutbelowisasummaryoftheAnnualCaps for the purchase costs payable by the JV Group to Philips Singapore under the Remote Control Sale Agreement for the financial year ending 31 December 2012 up to and including the financial year ending 31 December 2015.

For the year ending 31 December 2012 2013 2014 2015

In EUR (million) 2.75 3.30 3.85 1.93

Approximately equivalent US$ (million) 3.85 4.62 5.39 2.70

The Annual Caps were determined by the Company after taking into account, amongst other things, (i) the estimate of the future demand for the Scope Products, which was determined with reference to the historical demand and production trend for the Scope Products; (ii) the historical demand for remote control in respect of the

– 136 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY

Scope Products; (iii) the pricing trend of the Scope Products and remote control; (iv) additional buffer to cater for possible fluctuation of material costs as a result of possible changes in market conditions; and (v) possible change of the Completion Date.

In assessing the fairness and reasonableness of the aforesaid Annual Caps, we have reviewed the followings:

(i) Projected sales volume of the Scope Products

The remote control products, after bundling together with the Scope Products, will be sold to customers. The quantity of remote control products purchased by the JV Group therefore should be in line with the projected sales volume of the Scope Products. We understand from the management of the Group that the Philips Business purchased remote control products from both the Philips Group (approximately 2 million units for each of 2009 and 2010) and independent third party suppliers in the past and the Philips Business will continue to do so in the foreseeable future. We have reviewed the projected sales volumes of the Scope Products (as discussed in the paragraph 7(a)(i) above) and we note that the growth of projected purchase volumes of remote control products are largely in line with that of projected sales volumes of the Scope Products.

(ii) Unit purchase price

The estimated unit purchase price of the remote control products is approximately EUR1.0 (equivalent to approximately US$1.4) to EUR1.5 (equivalent to approximately US$2.1) per unit. We have compared with the actual unit purchase price of the remote control products purchased by the Group recently and we note that the estimated unit purchase price is generally in line with the actual unit purchase price.

(iii) Buffer to accommodate changes in market conditions

Similar to the Annual Caps for the royalty payable under the Trademark License Agreement and the Secondary Trademark License Agreement, a buffer of 10% for each of the four years ending 31 December 2015 has been added to the Annual Caps for the purchase costs under the Remote Control Sale Agreement. Similarly, we are of the view that a buffer of 10% is reasonable and will allow more flexibility to the Group when market conditions change.

(iv) Possible change of the Completion Date

The Remote Control Sale Agreement will commence on the Completion Date, which may not fall at the beginning of the financial year of the Group. The actual payment date therefore will be subject to change due to the possible

– 137 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY

change of the Completion Date as discussed above. We have reviewed the estimationoftheaforesaidAnnualCapsduetothepossiblechangeofthe Completion Date and we consider the estimation is reasonable.

Having considered the basis on which the Annual Caps for the purchase costs under the Remote Control Sale Agreement were determined as described above, we are of the view that the aforesaid Annual Caps are fair and reasonable.

(h) The NET TV License and Services Agreement

Set out below is a summary of the Annual Caps for the fee payable for the services by Philips Consumer Lifestyle to JVCo under the NET TV License and Services Agreement for the financial year ending 31 December 2012 up to and including the financial year ending 31 December 2015.

In EUR (million) 2.40 2.90 3.40 1.70

Approximately equivalent US$ (million) 3.36 4.06 4.76 2.38

In assessing the fairness and reasonableness of the aforesaid Annual Caps, we have reviewed the followings:

(i) Projected revenue generated from the NET TV Services and the sharing percentage under the NET TV License and Services Agreement

As discussed in the paragraph headed ‘‘pricing and financing arrangements’’ in section 5(a) above, we understand that the NET TV Services are now in the planning stage and have not been activated. Accordingly, there was no historical track record of revenue can be referenced to. Based on the estimation of the management of the Group and after taking into account, among other things, the structure of the NET TV Services and the revenue sharing mechanism among the participants and subject to the timing of the activation of the NET TV Services, it is anticipated that the revenue to be generated from user purchase on services and advertising to be shared by the JV Group will be EUR1.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$1.4 million), EUR1.5 million (equivalent to approximately US$2.1 million) and EUR2.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$2.8

– 138 – LETTER FROM SOMERLEY

million) for the first, second and third years from Completion respectively. Given the NET TV Services are still in planning stage, we consider the above estimate is not unreasonable.

(ii) Estimated annual costs payable by Philips Consumer Lifestyle

Pursuant to the NET TV License and Services Agreement, Philips Consumer Lifestyle shall pay to JVCo for the license to use the NET TV Portal and Smart TV Dashboard, which will be based on the actual costs planned for that year and the proportion of Philips Consumer Lifestyle’stotal installed base of active devices for that year to the total Net TV installed base for that year. We have discussed with the management of the Group, we understand that the Philips Group has funded approximately EUR1.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$1.4 million) for the development of the NET TV Services in 2011. Moreover, we also note that additional contributions of up to EUR0.4 million (equivalent to approximately US$0.6 million) may be made by Philips in relation to some joint knowhow programs for the Net TV Services, which will be discussed and agreed on a case-by-case basis. Accordingly, we consider it reasonable that the total costs payable by Philips Consumer Lifestyle will be up to EUR1.4 million (equivalent to approximately US$1.96 million) per year during the term of the NET TV License and Service Agreement.

(iii) Possible change of the Completion Date

The NET TV License and Services Agreement will commence on the Completion Date, which may not fall at the beginning of the financial year of the Group. The actual payment date therefore will be subject to change due to the possible change of the Completion Date as discussed above. We have reviewed the estimation of the aforesaid Annual Caps due to the possible change of the Completion Date and we consider the estimation is reasonable.

Having considered the basis on which the Annual Caps for the fee payable for the services under the NET TV License and Services Agreement were determined as described above, we are of the view that the aforesaid Annual Caps are fair and reasonable.

It is currently expected that the projected sales during the term of the Online Shop and My Shop Agreement will be approximately EUR6.6 million (equivalent to approximately US$9.2 million) per year. We have reviewed the track record of sales of the Scope Products to the Philips Group in the last few years as mentioned above and the projected employees’ demand for the Scope Products provided by Philips, we consider the Company’s sales projection is reasonable.

(ii) Buffer to accommodate changes in market conditions

Similar to the Annual Caps for the royalty payable under the Trademark License Agreement and the Secondary Trademark License Agreement, a buffer of 10% for each of the four years ending 31 December 2015 has been added to the Annual Caps for the sales under the Online Shop and My Shop Agreement.

We have reviewed the history of inflation in Brazil, we note that the inflation rate has been in single digit in recent years but it did surge up to around 17% in 2003. On the above basis, we consider the inclusion of inflation rate of 15% is reasonable for the purpose of estimation of aforesaid Annual Caps.

(iii) Potential changes in the exchange rate

The rental and condominium charges under the Brazil Lease Agreement will be payable in R$. A buffer of 20% has been included in the estimation of the aforesaid Annual Caps due to the potential changes in the exchange rate between R$ and EUR. We have reviewed the exchange rate of R$ against EUR andwenotethattheexchangeratehasfluctuatedasmuchas15%duringthe current year up to the Latest Practicable Date.

This will allow the Group to recover additional condominium expenditure incurred by Philips Brazil. Based on the above, we consider the estimation of the condominium charges and the buffer of 10% is reasonable.

Having considered the basis on which the Annual Caps for the rental and additional condominium charge under the Brazil Lease Agreement were determined as described above, we are of the view that the aforesaid Annual Caps are fair and reasonable.

This will allow the Group to recover additional condominium expenditure incurred by Dixtal.

In addition, based on our discussion with the management of the Group, it is currently expected that maximum number of hours required for the provision of various services, including any potential additional services, in relation to tax audits with respect to Philips will not be more than 2,000 hours. The agreed rate for the provision of services will be approximately EUR50 (equivalent to approximately US$70) per hour, which, based on our understanding with the management of the Group, is in line with the costs of services provided by the relevant level of staff.

Having considered the basis on which the Annual Caps for the fee under the Tax Audit Service Agreement were determined as described above, we are of the view that the aforesaid Annual Caps are fair and reasonable.

OPINION AND RECOMMENDATION

Based on the above principal factors and reasons, we consider the entering into of the Continuing Connected Transactions (including the Annual Caps) is part and parcel of the Acquisition, in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Company when the Company decided to acquire 70% interest in JVCo and in the interests of the Company and the Independent Shareholders as a whole. We also consider the terms of the Continuing Connected Transactions (including the Annual Caps) are on normal commercial terms and fair and reasonable as far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned. Accordingly, we recommend the Independent Board Committee to recommend, and we ourselves recommend, the Independent Shareholders, to vote in favor of the ordinary resolution to be proposed at the SGM in relation to the Continuing Connected Transactions (including the Annual Caps).

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

1 General information

The Group manufactures mainly in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”), Europe and South America and sells to Europe, North and South America, the PRC, Asian countries and the rest of the world.

The Company is a limited liability company incorporated in Bermuda. The address of its registered office is Canon’s Court, 22 Victoria Street, Hamilton HM 12, Bermuda.

The company has its primary listing on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited and secondary listing on Singapore Exchange Limited.

These financial statements are presented in US dollars, unless otherwise stated.

2 Summary of significant accounting policies

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

2.1 Basis of preparation

The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (“HKFRS”). The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of available-for-sale financial assets, financial assets and financial liabilities (including derivative financial instruments) at fair value through profit or loss and investment properties, which are carried at fair value.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with HKFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements are disclosed in Note 4.

(a) New and amended standards, and interpretation adopted by the Group

The following new standards and amendments to standards, and interpretation are mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning 1 January 2010. The adoption of these new standard and amendments to standards does not have any significant impact to the results and financial position of the Group.

HKFRS 3 (revised), ‘Business combinations’, and consequential amendments to HKAS 27, ‘Consolidated and separate financial statements’, HKAS 28, ‘Investments in associates’, and HKAS 31, ‘Interests in joint ventures’, are effective prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on 1 January 2010.

The revised standard continues to apply the acquisition method to business combinations but with some significant changes compared with HKFRS 3. For example, all payments to purchase a business are recorded at fair value at the acquisition date, with contingent payments classified as debt subsequently re-measured through the statement of comprehensive income.

– I-15 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

There is a choice on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis to measure the non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquiree’s net assets. All acquisition-related costs are expensed.

The revised standard was applied to the acquisition of the controlling interest in HannStar- TPV Display (Wuhan) Corp. on 23 December 2010. This acquisition has occurred in stages. The revised standard requires bargain purchase to be determined only at the acquisition date rather than at the previous stages. The determination of bargain purchase includes the previously held equity interest to be adjusted to fair value, with any gain or loss recorded in the income statement. See Note 41 for further details of the business combination that occurred in 2010.

HKAS 27 (revised) requires the effects of all transactions with non-controlling interests to be recorded in equity if there is no change in control and these transactions will no longer result in goodwill or gains and losses. The standard also specifies the accounting when control is lost. Any remaining interest in the entity is re-measured to fair value, and a gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss. HKAS 27 (revised) has had no impact on the current period, as none of the non-controlling interests have a deficit balance; there have been no transactions whereby an interest in an entity is retained after the loss of control of that entity, and there have been no transactions with non-controlling interests.

HKAS 1 (amendment), ‘Presentation of financial statements’. The amendment clarifies that the potential settlement of a liability by the issue of equity is not relevant to its classification as current or non-current. By amending the definition of current liability, the amendment permits a liability to be classified as non-current (provided that the entity has an unconditional right to defer settlement by transfer of cash or other assets for at least 12 months after the accounting period) notwithstanding the fact that the entity could be required by the counterparty to settle in shares at any time.

HKFRS 2 (amendments), ‘Group cash-settled share-based payment transactions’, effective form 1 January 2010. In addition to incorporating HK(IFRIC) 8, ‘Scope of HKFRS 2’, and HK(IFRIC) 11, ‘HKFRS 2 — Group and treasury share transactions’, the amendments expand on the guidance in HK(IFRIC) 11 to address the classification of group arrangements that were not covered by that interpretation.

HKAS 36 (amendment), ‘Impairment of assets’, effective 1 January 2010. The amendment clarifies that the largest cash-generating unit (or group of units) to which goodwill should be allocated for the purposes of impairment testing is an operating segment, as defined by paragraph 5 of HKFRS 8, ‘Operating segments’ (that is, before the aggregation of segments with similar economic characteristics).

HK Interpretation 5, ‘Presentation of Financial Statements — Classification by the Borrower of a Term Loan that Contains a Repayment on Demand Clause’, issued on 29 November 2010, immediately effective on that day. The interpretation states that a borrower shall classify the term loan as a current liability in its balance sheet under paragraph 69(d) of HKAS 1, if the borrower does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

HKAS 17 (amendment), ’Leases’, deletes specific guidance regarding classification of leases of land, so as to eliminate inconsistency with the general guidance on lease classification. As a result, leases of land should be classified as either finance or operating lease using the general principles of HKAS 17, i.e. whether the lease transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset to the lessee. Prior to the amendment, land interest which title is not expected to pass to the Group by the end of the lease term was classified as operating lease under “Land use rights”, and amortised over the lease term.

– I-16 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

‘Improvements to HKFRSs 2009’, mainly comprises a collection of amendments to HKFRSs, including the HKAS 17 (amendment) as described above. It is not expected to have a significant effect on the financial statements with adoption of these amendments.

(b) New and amended standards, and interpretations that are effective but not currently relevant to the Group

The following new and amended standards, and interpretations are mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning 1 January 2010, but are not currently relevant to the Group:

HKAS 39 (Amendment) Eligible Hedged Items HKFRS 1 (Revised) First-time Adoption of HKFRSs HKFRS 1 (Amendment) Additional Exemptions for First-time Adopters HKFRS 5 (Amendment) Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations HK(IFRIC) — Int 9 Reassessment of embedded derivatives HK(IFRIC) — Int 16 Hedges of a Net Investment in a Foreign Operation HK(IFRIC) — Int 17 Distribution of Non-cash Asset of Owners HK(IFRIC) — Int 18 Transfers of Assets from Customers

(c) New standards, amendments and interpretations have been issued but are not effective and have not been early adopted by the Group

The following new standards, amendments and interpretations have been issued and are mandatory for the Group’s accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011 or later periods, but the Group has not early adopted them:

HKFRS 9, ‘Financial instruments’, issued in November 2009 and December 2010. This standard is the first step in the process to replace HKAS 39, ‘Financial instruments: recognition and measurement’. HKFRS 9 introduces new requirements for classifying and measuring financial assets and is likely to affect the Group’s accounting for its financial assets. The standard is not applicable until 1 January 2013 but is available for early adoption.

In relation to financial liabilities, the significant change relates to financial liabilities that are designated as at fair value through profit or loss. Specifically, under HKFRS 9, for financial liabilities that are designated as at fair value through profit or loss, the amount of change in the fair value of the financial liability that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability is presented in other comprehensive income, unless the presentation of the effects of changes in the liability’s credit risk in other comprehensive income would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss. Changes in fair value attributable to a financial liability’s credit risk are not subsequently reclassified to profit or loss. Previously, under HKAS 39, the entire amount of the change in the fair value of the financial liability designated as at fair value through profit or loss was presented in profit or loss.

The Group is yet to assess HKFRS 9’s full impact. However, initial indications are that it may affect the Group’s accounting for its debt available-for-sale financial assets, as HKFRS 9 only permits the recognition of fair value gains and losses in other comprehensive income if they relate to equity investments that are not held for trading. Fair value gains and losses on available-for- sale debt investments, for example, will therefore have to be recognised directly in profit or loss. The Group will apply the standard from 1 January 2013.

HKAS 24 (revised), ‘Related party disclosures’, issued in November 2009. It supersedes HKAS 24, ‘Related party disclosures’, issued in 2003. HKAS 24 (revised) is mandatory for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011. Earlier application, in whole or in part, is permitted.

– I-17 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

The revised standard clarifies and simplifies the definition of a related party and removes the requirement for government-related entities to disclose details of all transactions with the government and other government-related entities. The Group will apply the revised standard from 1 January 2011. When the revised standard is applied, the Group and the parent will need to disclose any transactions between its subsidiaries and its associates. The Group has systems in place to capture the necessary information. No significant change in disclosure in the financial statements is expected. The Group will apply the standard from 1 January 2011.

‘Classification of rights issues’ (amendment to HKAS 32), issued in October 2009. The amendment applies to annual periods beginning on or after 1 February 2010. Earlier application is permitted. The amendment addresses the accounting for rights issues that are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the issuer. Provided certain conditions are met, such rights issues are now classified as equity regardless of the currency in which the exercise price is denominated. Previously, these issues had to be accounted for as derivative liabilities. The amendment applies retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8 ‘Accounting policies, changes in accounting estimates and errors’. It is not expected to have a significant effect on the financial statements with adoption of this amendment. The Group will apply the amended standard from 1 January 2011.

HK (IFRIC) — Int 19, ‘Extinguishing financial liabilities with equity instruments’, effective 1 July 2010. The interpretation clarifies the accounting by an entity when the terms of a financial liability are renegotiated and result in the entity issuing equity instruments to a creditor of the entity to extinguish all or part of the financial liability (debt for equity swap). It requires a gain or loss to be recognised in profit or loss, which is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability and the fair value of the equity instruments issued. If the fair value of the equity instruments issued cannot be reliably measured, the equity instruments should be measured to reflect the fair value of the financial liability extinguished. The Group will apply the interpretation from 1 January 2011. It is not expected to have any impact on the Group or the parent entity’s financial statements.

HKAS 12 (revised), ‘Income Taxes’, issued in December 2010. It supersedes HK(SIC) — Int 21’Income Taxes — Recovery of Revalued Non-Depreciable Assets’, issued in 2004. HKAS 12 (revised) is mandatory for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2012. Earlier application, in whole or in part, is permitted.

The revised standard clarifies that deferred taxes on an investment property, carried under the fair value model in HKAS 40, will be measured presuming that an investment property is recovered entirely through sale. The presumption is rebutted if the investment property is held within a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment property over time, rather than through sale. It is not expected to have a significant effect on the financial statements with adoption of this amendment. The Group will apply the amended standard from 1 January 2012.

Amendments to HKFRS 7 (revised), ‘Financial Instruments: Disclosures’, issued in October 2010. The amendment will be effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2011, with earlier application permitted. The amendments require additional disclosures for risk exposures arising from transferred financial assets and no disclosures are required for prior periods. No significant change in disclosure in the financial statements is expected. The Group will apply the amendment from 1 January 2012.

– I-18 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

‘Improvements to HKFRSs 2010’, issued in May 2010. The amendments are primarily effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011, with earlier application permitted. The amendment comprises a collection of amendments to HKFRSs. It is not expected to have a significant effect on the financial statements with adoption of these amendments. The Group will apply the amended standard from 1 January 2011.

‘Prepayments of a minimum funding requirement’ (amendments to HK (IFRIC) — Int 14). The amendments correct an unintended consequence of HK (IFRIC) — Int 14, ‘HKAS 19 — The limit on a defined benefit asset, minimum funding requirements and their interaction’. Without the amendments, entities are not permitted to recognise as an asset some voluntary prepayments for minimum funding contributions. This was not intended when HK (IFRIC) — Int 14 was issued, and the amendments correct this. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning 1 January 2011. Earlier application is permitted. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to the earliest comparative period presented. It is not expected to have a significant effect on the financial statements with adoption of these amendments. The Group will apply these amendments for the financial reporting period commencing on 1 January 2011.

2.2 Consolidation

(a) Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one half of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group controls another entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de- consolidated from the date that control ceases.

The Group uses the acquisition method of accounting to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred and the equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. On an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, the Group recognises any non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquiree’s net assets.

Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost less impairment. Cost is adjusted to reflect changes in consideration arising from contingent consideration amendments. Cost also includes direct attributable costs of investment. The results of subsidiaries are accounted for by the Company on the basis of dividend received and receivable.

The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If this is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired in the case of a bargain purchase, the difference is recognised directly in the statement of comprehensive income.

Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

– I-19 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

(b) Transactions with non-controlling interests

The Group treats transactions with non-controlling interests as transactions with equity owners of the Group. For purchases from non-controlling interests, the difference between any consideration paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying value of net assets of the subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals to non-controlling interests are also recorded in equity.

When the Group ceases to have control or significant influence, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value, with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.

(c) Associates and joint ventures

Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control, generally accompanying a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights.

A joint venture is a contractual arrangement whereby the venturers undertake an economic activity which is subject to joint control and over which none of the participating parties has unilateral control.

Jointly controlled entity is joint venture which involves the establishment of a separate entity.

Investments in associates and jointly controlled entities are accounted for using the equity method of accounting and are initially recognised at cost. The Group’s investment in associates and jointly controlled entities includes goodwill identified on acquisition, net of any accumulated impairment loss.

The Group’s share of its associates and jointly controlled entities’ post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in the consolidated income statement, and its share of post-acquisition movements in other comprehensive income is recognised in the consolidated other comprehensive income. The cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment. When the Group’s share of losses in an associate or a jointly controlled entity equals or exceeds its interest in the associate or the jointly controlled entity, including any other unsecured receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate or the jointly controlled entity.

Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its associates and jointly controlled entities are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associates and jointly controlled entities. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of associates and jointly controlled entities have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

Dilution gains and losses arising in investments in associates and jointly controlled entities are recognised in the consolidated income statement.

– I-20 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

The Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is any objective evidence that its interests in the associates and jointly controlled entities are impaired. Such objective evidence includes whether there has been any significant adverse changes in the technological, market, economic or legal environment in which the associates or jointly controlled entities operate or whether there has been a significant or prolonged decline in value below their cost. If there is an indication that an interest in an associate or jointly controlled entity is impaired, the Group assesses whether the entire carrying amount of the investment (including goodwill) is recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss for the amount by which the carrying amount is lower than the higher of the investment’s fair value less costs to sell or value in use. Any reversal of such impairment loss in subsequent periods is reversed through profit or loss.

Changes in accounting policy

The Group has changed its accounting policy for transactions with non-controlling interests and the accounting for loss of control or significant influence from 1 January 2010 when revised HKAS 27, ‘Consolidated and separate financial statements’, became effective. The revision to HKAS 27 contained consequential amendments to HKAS 28, ‘Investments in associates’, and HKAS 31, ‘Interests in joint ventures’.

Previously, transactions with non-controlling interests were treated as transactions with parties external to the Group. Disposals therefore resulted in gains or losses in profit or loss and purchases resulted in the recognition of goodwill. On disposal or partial disposal, a proportionate interest in reserves attributable to the subsidiary was reclassified to profit or loss or directly to retained earnings.

Previously, when the Group ceased to have control or significant influence over an entity, the carrying amount of the investment at the date control or significant influence became its cost for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interests as associates, jointly controlled entities or financial assets.

The Group has applied the new policy prospectively to transactions occurring on or after 1 January 2010. As a consequence, no adjustments were necessary to any of the amounts previously recognised in the financial statements.

2.3 Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the steering committee that makes strategic decisions.

2.4 Foreign currency translation

(a) Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the “functional currency”). The consolidated financial statements are presented in US dollars, which is the Company’s functional and the Group’s presentation currency.

– I-21 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

(b) Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or valuation when items are re-measured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the income statement.

All foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the income statement within ‘other gains — net.’

Changes in the fair value of monetary securities denominated in foreign currency classified as available-for-sale are analysed between translation differences resulting from changes in the amortised cost of the security and other changes in the carrying amount of the security. Translation differences related to changes in amortised cost are recognised in profit or loss, and other changes in carrying amount are recognised in other comprehensive income.

Translation difference on non-monetary financial assets and liabilities such as equities held at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in profit or loss as part of the fair value gain or loss. Translation differences on non-monetary financial assets such as equities classified as available-for-sale are included in other comprehensive income.

(c) Group companies

The results and financial position of all the Group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:

(i) assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that balance sheet;

(ii) income and expenses for each income statement are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the dates of the transactions); and

(iii) all resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.

On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of the net investment in foreign operations, and of borrowings and other currency instruments designated as hedges of such investments, are taken to other comprehensive income. When a foreign operation is partially disposed of or sold, exchange differences that were recorded in equity are recognised in the income statement as part of the gain or loss on sale.

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rate.

2.5 Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment, other than freehold land, are stated at historical cost less depreciation and impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

– I-22 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Freehold land is not depreciated. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment, other than freehold land, is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their costs to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Buildings 20 years Leasehold improvements 20 years Machinery and equipment 5 to 10 years Moulds 2 years Electrical appliances and equipment 3 to 5 years Transportation equipment 3 to 5 years Furniture, fixtures and miscellaneous equipment 1 to 5 years

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.

An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount (Note 2.9).

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount and are recognised in the income statement.

2.6 Construction-in-progress

Construction-in-progress represents buildings, plant and machinery under construction and pending installation and is stated at cost. Cost includes the costs of construction of buildings, the costs of plant and machinery, installation, testing and other direct costs. No depreciation is made on construction-in-progress until such time as the relevant assets are completed and ready for intended use. When the assets concerned are brought into use, the costs are transferred to property, plant and equipment and depreciated in accordance with the policy as stated in Note 2.5 above.

2.7 Investment properties

Investment property, principally comprising leasehold land and office buildings, is held for long- term rental yields and is not occupied by the Group. It also includes properties that are being constructed or developed for future use as investment properties. Land held under operating leases are accounted for as investment properties when the rest of the definition of an investment property is met. In such cases, the operating leases concerned are accounted for as if they were finance leases.

Investment property is initially measured at cost, including related transaction costs. After initial recognition at cost investment properties are carried at fair value, representing open market value determined at each reporting date by external valuers. Fair value is based on active market prices, adjusted, if necessary, for any difference in the nature, location or condition of the specific asset. If the information is not available, the Group uses alternative valuation methods such as recent prices on less active markets or discounted cash flow projections. Changes in fair values are recorded in the income statement as part of a valuation gain or loss in other income.

– I-23 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

2.8 Intangible assets

(a) Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of the net identifiable assets of the acquired subsidiary at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Impairment losses on goodwill are not reversed. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold.

Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units for the purpose of impairment testing. The allocation is made to those cash-generating units or groups of cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the business combination in which the goodwill arose identified according to operating segment.

(b) Trademarks and patents

Separately acquired trademarks and patents are shown at historical cost. Trademarks and patents acquired in a business combination are recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. Trademarks and patents have a finite useful life and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation. Amortisation is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of trademarks and patents over their estimated useful lives (not more than 15 years).

2.9 Impairment of investments in subsidiaries and non-financial assets

Assets that have an indefinite useful life, for example goodwill, are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment. Assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.

Impairment testing of an investment in a subsidiary is required upon receiving a dividends if the dividend exceeds the total comprehensive income of the subsidiary in the period the dividend is declared or if the carrying amount of the subsidiary in the Company’s balance sheet exceeds the carrying amount in the consolidated financial statements of the investee’s net assets including goodwill.

2.10 Financial assets

2.10.1 Classification

The Group classifies its financial assets in the following categories: at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables and available-for-sale. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. Management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.

– I-24 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

(a) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets held for trading. A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term. Derivatives are also categorised as held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Assets in this category are classified as current assets if expected to be within 12 months; otherwise, they are classified as non-current.

(b) Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the reporting period. These are classified as non-current assets. The Group’s loans and receivables comprise “trade and other receivables” and “cash and cash equivalents” in the balance sheet (Notes 2.15 and 2.16).

(c) Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. They are included in non-current assets unless the investment matures or management intends to dispose of it within 12 months of the end of the reporting period.

2.10.2 Recognition and measurement

Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade-date — the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Investments are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value and transaction costs are expensed in the income statement. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the investments have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. Available-for-sale financial assets and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Loans and receivables are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of the ‘financial assets at fair value through profit or loss’ category are presented in the income statement within ‘other gains — net’ in the period in which they arise. Dividend income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is recognised in the income statement as part of other income when the Group’s right to receive payments is established.

Changes in the fair value of monetary and non-monetary securities classified as available for sale are recognised in other comprehensive income.

When securities classified as available for sale are sold or impaired, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognised in equity are included in the income statement as ‘gains and losses from investment securities’.

Interest on available-for-sale securities calculated using the effective interest method is recognised in the income statement as part of other income. Dividends on available-for-sale equity instruments are recognised in the income statement as part of other income when the Group’s right to receive payments is established.

– I-25 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

2.11 Offsetting financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

2.12 Impairment of financial assets

(a) Assets carried at amortised cost

The Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a ‘loss event’) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.

The criteria that the Group uses to determine that there is objective evidence of an impairment loss include:

• Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or obligor;

• A breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;

• The Group, for economic or legal reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty, granting to the borrower a concession that the lender would not otherwise consider;

• It becomes probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation;

• The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties; or

• Observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a portfolio of financial assets since the initial recognition of those assets, although the decrease cannot yet be identified with the individual financial assets in the portfolio, including:

(i) adverse changes in the payment status of borrowers in the portfolio;

(ii) national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on the assets in the portfolio.

The Group first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists.

For loans and receivables category, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced and the amount of the loss is recognised in the consolidated income statement. If a loan or held- to-maturity investment has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract. As a practical expedient, the Group may measure impairment on the basis of an instrument’s fair value using an observable market price.

– I-26 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised (such as an improvement in the debtor’s credit rating), the reversal of the previously recognised impairment loss is recognised in the consolidated income statement.

(b) Assets classified as available for sale

The Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a Group of financial assets is impaired. For debt securities, the Group uses the criteria refer to (a) above. In the case of equity investments classified as available for sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is also evidence that the assets are impaired. If any such evidence exists for available-for-sale financial assets, the cumulative loss — measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in profit or loss — is removed from equity and recognised in the separate consolidated income statement. Impairment losses recognised in the separate consolidated income statement on equity instruments are not reversed through the separate consolidated income statement. If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available for sale increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised in profit or loss, the impairment loss is reversed through the separate consolidated income statement.

2.13 Derivative financial instruments which do not qualify for hedge accounting

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at their fair value.

Changes in the fair value of the derivative instruments which do not qualify for hedge accounting are recognised immediately in the income statement within “other gains — net”.

2.14 Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. The cost of finished goods and work in progress comprises design costs, raw materials, direct labour, other direct costs and related production overheads (based on normal operating capacity). It excludes borrowing costs. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less applicable variable selling expenses.

2.15 Trade and other receivables

Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business. If collection of trade and other receivables is expected in one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer), they are classified as current assets. If not, they are presented as non-current assets.

Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment.

2.16 Cash and cash equivalents

In the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. In the consolidated balance sheet, bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

– I-27 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

2.17 Share capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity.

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

Where any group company purchases the Company’s equity share capital (treasury shares), the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) is deducted from equity attributable to the Company’s equity holders until the shares are cancelled or reissued. Where such shares are subsequently reissued, any consideration received, net of any directly attributable incremental transaction costs and the related income tax effects, is included in equity attributable to the Company’s equity holders.

2.18 Trade and other payables

Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer). If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

Trade and other payables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

2.19 Borrowings

Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortised cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in the income statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period.

2.20 Compound financial instruments

Compound financial instruments issued by the Group comprise convertible bonds that can be converted to share capital at the option of the holder, and the number of shares to be issued does not vary with changes in their fair value.

The liability component of a compound financial instrument is recognised initially at the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an equity conversion option. The equity component is recognised initially at the difference between the fair value of the compound financial instrument as a whole and the fair value of the liability component. Any directly attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to their initial carrying amounts.

Subsequent to initial recognition, the liability component of a compound financial instrument is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The equity component of a compound financial instrument is not re-measured subsequent to initial recognition except on conversion or expiry.

– I-28 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

2.21 Current and deferred income tax

The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the income statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date in the countries where the company’s subsidiaries and associates operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.

Deferred income tax is recognised, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, the deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.

Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income taxes assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the balances on a net basis.

2.22 Employee benefits

(a) Pension obligations

The Group participates in a number of defined contribution schemes in the PRC, Hong Kong, Taiwan and overseas countries, the assets of which are held separately from those of the Group in independently administered funds. Contributions are made to these schemes based on a certain percentage of the employees’ salaries.

One of the Group’s subsidiaries in Taiwan also participates in a defined benefit pension plan in accordance with the local statutory regulations. Under this plan, pension costs are assessed using the projected unit credit method: the cost of providing pensions is charged to the income statement so as to spread the regular cost over the service lives of employees in accordance with the advice of an independent actuary who carries out a full valuation of the plan each year. The pension obligation is measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows using the rate of return of high-quality fixed-income investments in Taiwan which have the terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related pension liability. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised over the average remaining service lives of employees. Past service costs are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.

– I-29 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

The Group’s contributions to defined contribution schemes are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments is available.

(b) Termination benefits

Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated by the Group before the normal retirement date, or whenever an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The Group recognises termination benefits when it is demonstrably committed to a termination when the entity has a detailed formal plan to terminate the employment of current employees without possibility of withdrawal. In the case of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy, the termination benefits are measured based on the number of employees expected to accept the offer. Benefits falling due more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period are discounted to their present value.

(c) Profit-sharing and bonus plans

The Group recognises a liability and an expense for bonuses and profit-sharing, based on a formula that takes into consideration the profit attributable to the Company’s shareholders after certain adjustments. The Group recognises a provision where contractually obliged or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation.

2.23 Share-based payments

The Group operates a number of equity-settled, share-based compensation plans, under which the entity receives services from employees as consideration for equity instruments (options) of the Group. The fair value of the employee services received in exchange for the grant of the options is recognised as an expense. The total amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the fair value of the options granted:

• including any market performance conditions (for example, an entity’s share price);

• excluding the impact of any service and non-market performance vesting conditions (for example, profitability, sales growth targets and remaining an employee of the entity over a specified time period); and

• excluding the impact of any non-vesting conditions (for example, the requirement for employees to save).

Non-market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of options that are expected to vest. The total expense is recognised over the vesting period, which is the period over which all of the specified vesting conditions are to be satisfied. At the end of each reporting period, the entity revises its estimates of the number of options that are expected to vest based on the non- marketing vesting conditions. It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in the income statement, with a corresponding adjustment to equity.

When the options are exercised, the Company issues new shares. The proceeds received net of any directly attributable transaction costs are credited to share capital (nominal value) and share premium when the options are exercised.

The grant by the Company of options over its equity instruments to the employees of subsidiary undertakings in the Group is treated as a capital contribution. The fair value of employee services received, measured by reference to the grant date fair value, is recognised over the vesting period as an increase to investment in subsidiary undertakings, with a corresponding credit to equity.

– I-30 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

The social security contributions payable in connection with the grant of the share options is considered an integral part of the grant itself, and the charge will be treated as a cash-settled transaction.

2.24 Provisions

Provisions are recognised when: the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events; it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.

Provision for warranties is provided based on management’s estimates of the repair costs per unit of product sold in the relevant years and is calculated based on historical experience of the level of repairs and replacements. Actual warranty expenditure is charged against the provision as incurred.

Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small.

Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognised as interest expense.

2.25 Revenue recognition

Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and services in the ordinary course of the Group’s activities. Revenue is shown net of value-added tax, returns, rebates and discounts and after eliminating sales within the Group.

The Group recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and specific criteria have been met for each of the Group’s activities as described below. The Group bases its estimates on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement.

(a) Sales of goods

Sales of goods are recognised when the risk and reward of the goods has been transferred to the customer, which is usually at the date when a group entity has delivered products to the customer, the customer has accepted the products, and there is no unfulfilled obligations that could affect the customer’s acceptance of the products. Accumulated experience is used to estimate and provide for sales return at the time of sale.

(b) Interest income

Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method. When a loan and receivable is impaired, the Group reduces the carrying amount to its recoverable amount, being the estimated future cash flow discounted at the original effective interest rate of the instrument, and continues unwinding the discount as interest income. Interest income on impaired loan and receivables are recognised using the original effective interest rate.

(c) Rental income

Operating lease rental income is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease periods.

– I-31 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

2.26 Government grants

Government grants are subsidies on export of computer monitors and flat TV products and economic assistance on certain projects provided by governments.

Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the Group will comply with all attached conditions.

Government grants relating to property, plant and equipment are included in non-current liabilities as deferred government grants and are credited to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the expected lives of the related assets.

2.27 Research and development costs

Research costs are expensed as incurred.

Development costs relating to the design and testing of new or improved products and reassessment of production procedures for cost efficiency purposes are expensed as incurred as the directors consider that the related economic benefits generated from these developments have very limited useful lives.

2.28 Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs incurred for the construction of any qualifying asset are capitalised during the year that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended user sale. Other borrowing costs are expensed in the income statement.

2.29 Leases

Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor), including upfront payment made for leasehold land and land use rights, are charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

2.30 Financial guarantee

A financial guarantee (a kind of insurance contract) is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payments when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument. The Group does not recognise liabilities for financial guarantee at inception, but perform a liability adequacy test at each reporting date by comparing its net liability regarding the financial guarantee with the amount that would be required if the financial guarantee would result in a present legal or constructive obligation. If the liability is less than its present legal or constructive obligation amount, the entire difference is recognised in the income statement immediately.

2.31 Dividend distribution

Dividend distribution to the Company’s shareholders is recognised as a liability in the Group’s and the Company’s financial statements in the period in which the dividends are approved by the Company’s shareholders.

– I-32 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

3 Financial risk management

3.1 Financial risk factors

The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, price risk, fair value interest rate risk and cash flow interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Group’s financial performance.

Risk management is carried out by a central treasury department (Group Treasury) under policies approved by the Board of Directors. Group Treasury identifies, evaluates and mitigates financial risks in close co-operation with the Group’s operating units. The Board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as written policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and cash management.

(a) Market risk

(i) Foreign exchange risk

The Group operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures, primarily with respect to Renminbi and Brazilian real. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions, recognised assets and liabilities and net investments in foreign operations. Moreover, the conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies is subject to the rules and regulations of exchange control promulgated by the PRC government.

Management has set up a policy to require Group companies to manage their foreign exchange risk against their functional currency. Entities in the Group manage the amount of financial assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies together with the use of foreign exchange forward contracts to manage their foreign exchange risk arising from future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities.

As at 31 December 2010, if US dollars had weakened/strengthened by 1% against Renminbi with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit for the year would have been US$1,426,000 (2009: US$975,000) higher/lower, mainly as a result of foreign exchange gains/losses on translation of Renminbi denominated trade receivables and payables and cash and cash equivalents.

As at 31 December 2010, if US dollars had weakened/strengthened by 1% against Brazilian real with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit for the year would have been US$2,068,000 (2009: US$1,302,000) higher/lower, mainly as a result of foreign exchange gains/losses on translation of US dollars denominated trade payables.

The Company does not have significant exposure to foreign exchange risk.

(ii) Price risk

The Group is exposed to equity securities price risk because investments held by the Group and classified on the consolidated balance sheet either as available-for-sale or at fair value through profit or loss. The Group has not mitigated its price risk arising from investments in equity securities.

– I-33 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

For the Group’s investments that are publicly traded, the fair value is determined with reference to quoted market prices. For the Group’s investments that are not publicly traded, the Group uses its judgement to select a variety of methods and make assumptions that are mainly based on market conditions existing at the balance sheet date.

The Company does not have significant exposure to price risk.

(iii) Interest rate risk

The Group’s income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates as the Group has no significant interest-bearing assets except for cash at bank which earned a low interest. The Group’s exposures to changes in interest rates are mainly attributable to its borrowings. Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk which is partially offset by cash held at variable rates. Borrowings issued at fixed rates expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk, which arises from the convertible bonds issued at a fixed rate of 3.35% in 2005 and fully redeemed during the current year. Details of the Group’s borrowings and convertible bonds have been disclosed in Note 29 and Note 36, respectively.

The Group also invests in interest rate swaps which expose the Group to cash flow and interest rate risk. Details of the Group’s interest rate swaps have been disclosed in Note 34.

The Company’s amounts due from subsidiaries were interest free and this exposes the Company to fair value interest rate risk.

As at 31 December 2010, if interest rates on borrowings had been 10 basis points higher/lower with all other variables held constant, the Group’s and the Company’s post- tax profit for the year would have been US$28,684 (2009: US$5,981) and US$1,991 (2009: Nil) lower/higher respectively, mainly as a result of higher/lower interest expenses on floating rate borrowings.

(b) Credit risk

Credit risk is managed on a group basis. The Group’s credit risk mainly arises from cash and cash equivalents, derivative financial instruments and deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposures to trade and other receivables. Management has policies in place to monitor the exposures to these credit risks on an on-going basis.

As at 31 December 2010 and 2009, for cash and cash equivalents, derivative financial instruments and deposits with banks and financial institutions, they are all deposited or traded with high quality financial institutions without significant credit risk.

The Group has put in place policies to ensure that sales of products are made to customers with an appropriate credit history and the Group performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers. The Group’s historical experience in collection of trade and other receivables falls within the recorded allowances.

– I-34 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

The table below shows the balance of the five major debtors aggregated on a global basis for companies which belong to the same group at the balance sheet date.

2010 Counterparty US$’000

Customer C 224,782 Customer B 158,437 Customer D 108,409 Customer F 98,934 Customer G 92,961

683,523

(c) Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of banking facilities. The Group aims to maintain flexibility in funding by keeping credit lines available at all time.

Cash flow forecasting is performed in the operating entities of the Group and aggregated by Group finance. Group finance monitors rolling forecasts of the Group’s liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs while maintaining sufficient headroom on its undrawn committed banking facilities (Note 29) at all times so that the Group does not breach borrowing limits or covenants (where applicable) on any of its banking facilities. Such forecasting takes into consideration the Group’s debt financing plans, covenant compliance, compliance with internal balance sheet ratio targets and exchange control.

Surplus cash held by the operating entities over and above balance required for working capital management are transferred to the Group Treasury. Group Treasury invests surplus cash mainly in time deposits, choosing instruments with appropriate maturities or sufficient liquidity to provide sufficient headroom as determined by the above-mentioned forecasts. At the reporting date, the Group held cash and cash equivalents of US$184,426,000 (2009: US$270,438,000) (Note 26) and trade receivables of US$2,193,205,000 (2009: US$1,881,460,000) (Note 24) that are expected to readily generate cash inflows for managing liquidity risk. In addition, the Group holds listed equity securities for trading of US$2,562,000 (2009: US$2,920,000) (Note 25), which could be readily realised to provide a further source of cash if the need arose. The Group will also factor its trade receivables to banks without recourse should there be additional liquidity needs.

The table below analyses the Group’s non-derivative financial liabilities and net-settled derivative financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period at the balance sheet date to the contractual maturity date. Derivative financial liabilities are included in the analysis if their contractual maturities are essential for an understanding of the timing of the cash flows. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows.

3.2 Capital risk management

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. Except for the compliance of certain financial covenants for maintaining the Group’s banking facilities and convertible bonds, the Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

The Group monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated as total borrowings (including ‘current and non-current borrowings’ as shown in the consolidated balance sheet) less cash and cash equivalents. Total capital is calculated as ‘equity’ as shown in the consolidated balance sheet plus net debt. Management considers a gearing ratio of not more than 100% as reasonable.

– I-37 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

As the Group was in a net cash position as at 31 December 2009, gearing ratio was not applicable.

3.3 Fair value estimation

The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value, by valuation method. The different levels have been defined as follows:

• Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1).

• Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices) (level 2).

• Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs) (level 3).

The following table presents the Group’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value at 31 December 2010:

Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total US$’000 US$’000 US$’000 US$’000

Assets Available-for-sale financial assets 2,079 — 76 2,155 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss 2,562 — — 2,562 Derivative financial instruments — 65,103 — 65,103

4,641 65,103 76 69,820

Liabilities Derivative financial instruments — 63,837 — 63,837

The following table presents the Group’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value at 31 December 2009:

Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total US$’000 US$’000 US$’000 US$’000

Assets Available-for-sale financial assets 2,260 — 917 3,177 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss 2,920 — — 2,920 Derivative financial instruments — 18,832 — 18,832

5,180 18,832 917 24,929

Liabilities Derivative financial instruments — 17,574 — 17,574

The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory agency, and

– I-38 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length basis. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group is the current bid price. These instruments are included in level 1.

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, over- the-counter derivatives) is determined by using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.

If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.

Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:

• Quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar instruments.

• The fair value of interest rate swaps is calculated as the present value of the estimated future cash flows based on observable yield curves.

• The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is determined using forward exchange rates at the balance sheet date, with the resulting value discounted back to present value.

• Other techniques, such as discounted cash flow analysis including dividend growth model, are used to determine fair value for the remaining financial instruments.

There were no significant transfers of financial assets between level 1, level 2 and level 3 fair value hierarchy classifications.

The following table presents the changes in level 3 instruments for the year ended 31 December 2010:

Available-for- sale financial assets US$’000

Opening balance 917 Impairment losses recognised in profit or loss (841)

Closing balance 76

The following table presents the changes in level 3 instruments for the year ended 31 December 2009:

4 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

4.1 Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are addressed below.

(a) Income taxes

The Group is subject to income taxes in numerous jurisdictions. Significant judgement is required in determining the worldwide provision for income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The Group recognises liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences would impact the current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities in the period in which such determination is made.

(b) Warranty provision

The Group gives warranties on certain products and undertakes to repair or replace items that fail to perform satisfactorily ranging from twelve to thirty-six months. Significant judgement is required in determining the warranty expenses. The Group estimates the warranty expenses based on the actual repair and replacement costs incurred for the products sold in the last thirty- six months. Where the warranty expenses incurred are different from the original provision, such difference would impact the consolidated income statement in the period in which the warranty expenses are incurred.

(c) Estimated impairment of goodwill

The Group tests annually whether goodwill has suffered any impairment, in accordance with the accounting policy stated in Note 2.8. The recoverable amounts of cash-generating units have been determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations required the use of estimates (Note 15).

(d) Pending litigations

The Group had certain pending litigations at the balance sheet date. Significant judgement is required in determining whether it is more likely than not that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the pending litigations in which case an accrual for the potential litigation expenses is recognised.

(e) Estimation of provision for impairment of receivables

The Group makes provision for impairment of receivables based on an assessment of the collectability of trade and other receivables. Provisions for impairment are applied to trade and other receivables where events or changes in circumstances indicate that the balances may not be collectible. The identification of doubtful debts requires the use of judgement and estimates. Where the expectation is different from the original estimate, such difference will impact the carrying amount of receivables and doubtful debt expense in the period in which such estimate is changed.

– I-40 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

(f) Net realisable value of inventories

Net realisable value of inventories is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated cost to completion and selling expenses. These estimates are based on the current market condition and the historical experience of manufacturing and selling products of similar nature. Management reassesses the estimation at the end of each reporting period.

(g) Useful lives of property, plant and equipment

The Group’s management determines the estimated useful lives and related depreciation charges for its plant and equipment. This estimate is based on the historical experience of the actual useful lives of plant and equipment of similar nature and functions. It could change significantly as a result of technical innovations and competitor actions in response to competition within the industry. Management will increase the depreciation where useful lives are less than previously estimated lives, or it will write-off or write-down technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold.

(h) Employee benefits — share-based payments

The valuation of the fair value of the share options granted requires judgement in determining the expected volatility of the share price, the dividends expected on the shares, the risk-free interest rate during the life of the options and the number of share options that are expected to vest. Where the outcome of the number of options that are vested is different, such difference will impact the consolidated income statement in the subsequent remaining vesting period of the relevant share options.

(i) Fair value of derivatives and other financial instruments

The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the end of each reporting period. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group is the current bid price; the appropriate quoted market price for financial liabilities is the current ask price.

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using appropriate valuation techniques and making assumptions that are based on market conditions existing at each balance sheet date.

(j) Royalty

The Group estimates the royalty expenses based on industry knowledge and other market information. Significant judgement is required in determining the royalty expenses. Where the royalty expenses incurred are different from the original estimate, such difference would impact the income statement in the period in which the royalty expenses are incurred.

(k) Estimated fair values of investment properties

The Group carries its investment properties at fair value with changes in the fair values recognised in profit or loss. It obtains independent valuations at least annually. At the end of each reporting period, the management update their assessment of the fair value of each property, taking into account the most recent independent valuations.

5 Segment information

Management has determined the operating segments based on the reports reviewed by the chief operating decision-maker, Dr Hsuan, Jason, chairman and chief executive officer of the Company, that are used to make strategic decisions and resources allocation.

The Group’s businesses are managed according to the nature of their operations and the products and services they provide.

The Group is organised on a worldwide basis into two main operating segments. They are (i) Monitors; and (ii) TVs.

Others mainly comprise the sales of chassis, spare parts, CKD/SKD and other general corporate items.

The Group’s chief operating decision-maker assesses the performance of the operating segments based on a measure of adjusted operating profit. Export incentives received, fiscal refund received, technical innovation subsidy received, other gains — net, finance income, finance costs and share of profits less losses of associates and jointly controlled entities are not included in the result for each operating segment that is reviewed by the Group’s chief operating decision-maker.

Sales are categorised according to the final destination of shipment. There are no inter-segment sales.

Capital expenditure represented addition of property, plant and equipment and land use rights.

Segment assets consist primarily of intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, land use rights, inventories, trade receivables and deposits, prepayments and other receivables. They exclude investment properties, investments in associates, investments in jointly controlled entities, available-for-sale financial assets, deferred income tax assets, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, current income tax recoverable, derivative financial instruments, pledged bank deposits and cash and cash equivalents, which are managed on a central basis. These are included in the reconciliation to total balance sheet assets.

Segment liabilities mainly comprise pension obligations, trade payables, other payables and accruals and warranty provisions. They exclude borrowings, current income tax liabilities and derivative financial instruments, which are managed on a central basis. These are included in the reconciliation to total balance sheet liabilities.

11 Income tax expense

No provision for Hong Kong profits tax has been made as the Group had no estimated assessable profit generated in Hong Kong for the year (2009: Nil).

Taxation on profits has been calculated on the estimated assessable profit for the year at the rates of taxation prevailing in the countries/places in which the Group operates.

The amount of taxation charged/(credited) to the consolidated income statement represents:

2010 2009 US$’000 US$’000

Current income tax — current year 32,393 28,424 — under/(over)-provision in prior years 74 (477) Deferred income tax expense (Note 30) 10,267 4,022

Income tax expense 42,734 31,969

– I-50 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

The tax on the Group’s profit before tax differs from the theoretical amount that would arise using the primary tax rate of 15% (2009: 15%) applicable to profits of the majority of the consolidated entities as follows:

2010 2009 US$’000 US$’000

There were no taxation charged to equity for the year (2009: Nil) as there were no material tax effect for other comprehensive income.

12 Profit attributable to equity holders

The profit attributable to equity holders of the Company is dealt with in the financial statements of the Company to the extent of US$36,425,000 (2009: US$38,258,000).

13 Earnings per share

(a) Basic

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year.

2010 2009

Profit attributable to equity holders of the Company (US$’000) 169,349 141,214

Basic earnings per share (US cents per share) 7.37 6.69

– I-51 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

(b) Diluted

Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding to assume conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. The Company has two categories of dilutive potential ordinary shares: convertible bonds and share options. The convertible bonds are assumed to have been converted into ordinary shares and the net profit is adjusted to eliminate the interest expense. For the share options, a calculation is done to determine the number of shares that could have been acquired at fair value (determined as the average annual market share price of the Company’s shares) based on the monetary value of the subscription rights attached to outstanding share options. The number of shares calculated as above is compared with the number of shares that would have been issued assuming the exercise of the share options.

50,670 42,226

The directors proposed on 23 March 2011 a final dividend of US1.40 cents per share (2009: US1.26 cents) payable in cash to equity holders. The amount of 2010 proposed final dividend is based on 2,345,836,139 shares in issue as at 23 March 2011 (2009: 2,345,836,139 shares as at 31 March 2010). This proposed dividend is not reflected as a dividend payable in these financial statements, but will be reflected as an appropriation of retained profits for the year ending 31 December 2011.

Impairment tests for goodwill

A summary of the goodwill allocation is presented below.

Monitors 324,274 324,274 TVs 64,824 64,824

389,098 389,098

The recoverable amount of cash generating units (“CGU”) is determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations use pre-tax cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by management covering a one-year period. Cash flows beyond the one-year period are extrapolated for the first ten-year period and for the period after the tenth year using different estimated growth rates stated below. These growth rates do not exceed the long-term average growth rate for the business in which the CGU operates.

Key assumptions used for value-in-use calculations are as follows:

Monitors TV

Gross margin 6.6% 5.5% Average growth rate for the first ten-year projection period 4.0% 18.0% Growth rate after the tenth year 2.0% 2.0% Discount rate 7.4% 7.4%

Management determined budgeted gross margin based on past performance and its expectations of market development. The weighted average growth rates used are consistent with the forecasts included in industry reports. The discount rates used are pre-tax and reflect specific risks relating to the relevant operating segments.

The directors are of the opinion that there was no impairment of goodwill as at 31 December 2010 and 2009.

(a) In accordance with the relevant PRC regulations applicable to wholly foreign owned enterprises, the PRC subsidiaries are required to appropriate to reserve fund an amount of not less than 10% of the profit after income tax, calculated based on PRC accounting standards. Should the accumulated total of this reserve fund reach 50% of the registered capital of the PRC subsidiaries, except for the TPV Technology (Suzhou) Company Limited whereas it is 30% of its registered capital, the subsidiaries will not be required to make any further appropriation. Pursuant to the relevant PRC regulations, this reserve can be used for making up losses and increase of capital.

(b) The merger difference of the Group represents the difference between the aggregate nominal value of the share capital of the subsidiaries acquired pursuant to a corporate reorganization (the “Reorganization”), which was completed on 21 September 1999, in preparation for a listing of the Company’s shares on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited, over the nominal value of the share capital of the Company issued in exchange thereof.

(c) The contributed surplus of the Company represents the difference between the nominal value of the Company’s shares issued in exchange for the share capital of the subsidiary acquired pursuant to the Reorganization and the value of the consolidated net assets of the subsidiary acquired. Under the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda (as amended), the contributed surplus is distributable to the shareholders, provided that the Company will be able to pay its liabilities as they fall due and subsequent to the distribution, the aggregate amount of its total liabilities, as well as the issued share capital and premium is less than the realisable value of its assets.

(d) Convertible bonds in reserves represent the value of the equity conversion component. Details of the convertible bonds are set out in Note 36.

39 Contingent liabilities

The Group has a number of legal and other proceedings at 31 December 2010. The directors are of the opinion that even if the outcome of the following litigations and complaints turn out to be unfavourable, the directors consider that their future settlement, in aggregate, may not have any material financial impact on the Group as a whole.

(a) In January 2007, a third party company filed a complaint in the United States of America against the Group, one of its associates and certain other third party companies. The complaint claims damages related to alleged infringement of a US Patent in respect of technology to decode Program Map Information in the Digital TVs (“Patent I”).

As far as the Group and its associate are concerned, it is alleged among other matters that:

(i) They have directly infringed, contributed to and/or actively induced infringement of the Patent I and are continuing to directly infringe, contribute to and/or actively induce infringement by making, using, importing, offering for sale, soliciting sales by others of, enabling or assisting with sales by others of, and/or selling in the United States of America, including, without limitation, ATSC TVs under the AOC brand name, which are covered by one or more claims of the Patent I; and

(ii) as a consequence of their infringement complained of herein, the plaintiff had been damaged and will continue to sustain damages by such acts in an amount to be determined at trial and will continue to suffer irreparable loss and injury.

The directors are of the opinion that while the proceedings were stayed to the extent the Group is concerned according to the Court’s Stipulation and Order of 23 October 2007, it is not probable to assess the outcome of the litigation for the time being. Even if the outcome of the litigation turns out to be unfavourable, the directors consider that its future settlement may not have any material financial impact on the Group as a whole and that an appropriate amount of provision has been made, if any.

(b) In November 2007, the U.S. International Trade Commission instituted an investigation based on a complaint filed by a third party against the Group, one of its associates and other third party companies. The claims of the complaint related to alleged infringement of Patent I.

As far as the Group and its associate are concerned, it is alleged among other matters that:

(i) their unfair acts include the unlicensed importation, sale for importation and/or sale after importation of digital televisions and products containing the same in the United States of America. The accused televisions employ patented technology related to Patent I; and

(ii) the complainant requested for issuance of limited exclusion order prohibiting the entry into the United States of America all of respondents’ imported televisions and products containing digital television covered by Patent I; and cease and desist order stopping importing, offering for sale, marketing, advertising, demonstrating, warehousing, distributing, selling and/or using such imported products of respondents in the United States of America.

On 23 November 2010, the proceedings before the U.S. International Trade Commission are terminated based on a withdrawal of the complaint by the complainant. The directors consider that the termination does not have any material financial impact on the Group as a whole.

– I-83 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

(c) In December 2008, a third party company filed a complaint in the United States of America against the Group, one of its associates and other third party companies. The complaint concerns claims of damages related to alleged infringement of certain patents in respect of technology of the manufacture of computer monitors and televisions (“Patent II”).

As far as the Group and its associate are concerned, it is alleged among other matters that:

(i) they manufacture, assemble, service, including unlicensed monitors and televisions, and sell those products through the United States of America, and know, expect, and intend that the products, including unlicensed monitors, will be sold in the market of the United States of America.

(ii) as a consequence of the infringement, the plaintiff has been damaged and would continue to sustain damages unless the court issues an injunction, enjoining them from further infringement of said patents.

The directors are of the opinion that while the proceedings are still ongoing, it is not probable to assess the outcome of the case for the time being. Even if the outcome turns out to be unfavourable, the directors consider that its future settlement may not have any material financial impact on the Group as a whole and that an appropriate amount of provision has been made, if any.

(d) In January 2009, a third party company filed a complaint in Germany against the Group, one of its associates and other third party companies.

(i) they had had infringed, actively induced, contributed to the infringement of Patent III by making, using, causing to be used, offering to sell, selling, causing to be sold, importing and/or causing to be imported monitors in Germany; and

(ii) as a consequence of the infringement, the plaintiff has been damaged and would continue to sustain damages unless the court grants an award of damages to it covering reasonably attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses that incurred by it for pursuing this action.

The directors are of the opinion that while the proceedings are still ongoing, it is not probable to assess the outcome of the case for the time being. Even if the outcome turns out to be unfavourable, the directors consider that its future settlement may not have any material financial impact on the Group as a whole and that an appropriate amount of provision has been made, if any.

(e) In November 2009, a third party company filed a complaint in the United States of America against the Group and certain other third party companies.

– I-84 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

(ii) the third party company is entitled to indemnification from the Group for any liabilities it incurs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, settlement amount or any awarded damage.

The directors are of the opinion that while the proceedings are still ongoing, it is not probable to assess the outcome of the case for the time being.

(f) In April 2010, in light of threatened claim for infringement of patents, the Group and one of its associates filed a complaint in the United States of America against three third party companies. Under this complaint, they seek a judicial declaration from the court that they have not infringed the patents of certain digital television technologies (“Patent IV”) and/or the Patent IV are invalid and unenforceable.

On 15 November 2010, the complaint is dismissed according to the Court’s Order. The directors consider that the dismissal does not have any material financial impact on the Group as a whole.

(g) In July 2010, a third party company filed a complaint in the United States of America against the Group. The complaint concerns claims of compensation related to indemnity obligations as provided in an agreement between the parties.

The directors are of the opinion that while the proceedings are still ongoing, it is not probable to assess the outcome of the case for the time being. Even if the outcome turns out to be unfavourable, the directors consider that its future settlement may not have any material financial impact on the Group as a whole and that an appropriate amount of provision has been made, if any.

(h) In July 2010, a third party company filed a complaint in the United States of America against the Group, one of its associates and another third party company.

The complaint concerns claims of damages related to alleged infringement of certain patents in respect of technology of the manufacture of certain televisions (“Patent V”).

As far as the Group and its associate are concerned, it is alleged among other matters that:

(i) they have been infringing and continue to infringe the Patent V, and contributing to and actively inducing the infringement of Patent V by others in the United States of America.

(ii) as a consequence of the infringement, the plaintiff has been damaged and will continue to sustain damages unless the court enjoins them from further infringement of Patent V.

The directors are of the opinion that while the proceedings are still ongoing, it is not probable to assess the outcome of the case for the time being. Even if the outcome turns out to be unfavourable, the directors consider that its future settlement may not have any material financial impact on the Group as a whole and that an appropriate amount of provision has been made, if any.

(i) In November 2010, a third party individual filed a complaint in the United States of America against the Group. The Complaint concerns alleged claims of personal injury caused by products that contain asbestos.

– I-85 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

The directors are of the opinion that while the complaint is not properly served yet, it is not probable to assess the outcome of the case for the time being.

41 Business combination and disposal

(a) Purchase of a subsidiary

On 23 December 2010, the Group acquired a further 80% equity interests in HannStar Display (Wuhan) Corp. (the “Hannstar-TPV”) for a purchase consideration of US$3,400,000, in addition to 20% of the original equity interests in this associate, and obtained the control of Hannstar-TPV.

A gain from a bargain purchase of US$1,385,000 arising from the acquisition is attributable to the long-term relationship between the Group and the seller and it is included in the consolidated income statement within “other gains—net” for the year ended 31 December 2010.

– I-87 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

The following table summarises the consideration for Hannstar-TPV and the amounts of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, as well as the fair values at acquisition.

2010 US$’000

Purchase consideration: — Cash paid 1,200 — Cash payable 2,200

Total consideration 3,400 Fair value of equity interest in Hannstar-TPV held before the business combination 1,196

Recognised amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed — at fair value Cash and cash equivalents 437 Property, plant and equipment 4,565 Inventories 411 Trade and other receivables 3,029 Trade and other payables (2,461)

Total identifiable net assets 5,981

Gain from a bargain purchase (1,385)

The revenue and losses included in the consolidated income statement since 23 December 2010 contributed by Hannstar-TPV were insignificant.

Had Hannstar-TPV been consolidated from 1 January 2010, revenue would increase by US$7,555,000 and profit would decrease by US$3,633,000 in the consolidated income statement.

– I-88 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

(b) Disposal of interests in a subsidiary

A subsidiary of the Group offered its shares for subscription by third parties in July 2010, which resulted in dilution of the Group’s interests in this subsidiary from 85% to 50%. Consequently, this subsidiary has been deconsolidated and accounted for as a jointly controlled entity.

The following table summarises the amounts of the assets and liabilities deconsolidated at the transaction date.

2010 US$’000

Property, plant and equipment 7,270 Inventories 3,040 Trade and other receivables 2,136 Trade payables and other payables (9,947)

2,499 Gain on disposal 206

(2,089)

Satisfied by: Cash and cash equivalents received as consideration — Less: Cash and cash equivalents disposed (2,089)

(2,089)

The effect on the Group’s results from the disposal of this subsidiary is not material for the year ended 31 December 2010.

The Group manufactures mainly in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”) and sells to Europe, North and South America, the PRC and other Asian countries.

The Company is a limited liability company incorporated in Bermuda. The address of its registered office is Canon’s Court, 22 Victoria Street, Hamilton HM 12, Bermuda.

The shares of the Company are primarily listed on the Exchange and secondarily listed on Singapore Exchange Limited.

This condensed consolidated interim financial information is presented in US dollars, unless otherwise stated. This condensed consolidated interim financial information was approved for issue on 24 August 2011.

This condensed consolidated interim financial information has not been audited.

2 Basis of preparation

This condensed consolidated interim financial information for the six months ended 30 June 2011 has been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Accounting Standard (“HKAS”) 34, ‘Interim financial reporting’ issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The condensed consolidated interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2010, which have been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (“HKFRS”).

3 Accounting policies

Except as described below, the accounting policies applied are consistent with those of the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2010, as described in those annual financial statements.

Taxes on income in the interim periods are accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual earnings.

(a) The following revised standard and amendment to standard are mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning 1 January 2011

HKAS 24 (Revised), “Related Party Disclosures” is effective for annual period beginning on or after 1 January 2011. It introduces an exemption from all of the disclosure requirements of HKAS 24 for transactions among government related entities and the government. Those disclosures are replaced with a requirement to disclose:

• The name of the government and the nature of their relationship;

• The nature and amount of any individually significant transactions; and

• The extent of any collectively-significant transactions qualitatively or quantitatively.

It also clarifies and simplifies the definition of a related party.

– I-103 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

Amendment to HKAS 34 ‘Interim financial reporting’ is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011. It emphasizes the existing disclosure principles in HKAS 34 and adds further guidance to illustrate how to apply these principles. Greater emphasis has been placed on the disclosure principles for significant events and transactions. Additional requirements cover disclosure of changes to fair value measurement (if significant), and the need to update relevant information from the most recent annual report. The change in accounting policy only results in additional disclosures.

The adoption of this revised standard and amendment to standard had no material financial effect on the Group’s result and financial position for the current or prior periods.

(b) The following amendments to standards and interpretations are effective for accounting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2011, but are not relevant to the Group

HKAS 32 (Amendment) Classification of Rights Issues HK(IFRIC) — Int 14 Prepayments of a Minimum Funding Requirement HK(IFRIC) — Int 19 Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments HKFRSs (Amendment) Third Improvements to HKFRSs 2010

The adoption of these amendments to standards and interpretations had no material effect on the preparation and presentation of the results and financial position of the Group for the current or prior accounting periods.

(c) The following new revised standards and amendments to standards have been issued but are not effective for the financial year beginning 1 January 2011 and have not been early adopted

The Group had not early adopted the following new revised standards and amendments to standards that have been issued but not yet effective in these condensed consolidated interim financial information.

Effective for accounting periods beginning on or after

HKFRS 7 (Amendment) Disclosures — Transfers of Financial Assets 1 July 2011 HKAS 12 (Amendment) Deferred tax: Recovery of Underlying Assets 1 January 2012 HKFRS 9 Financial Instruments 1 January 2013 HKFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements 1 January 2013 HKFRS 11 Joint Arrangements 1 January 2013 HKFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities 1 January 2013 HKFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement 1 January 2013 HKAS 1 (Amendment) Presentation of Financial Statements 1 January 2013 HKAS 19 (2011) Employee Benefits 1 January 2013 HKAS 27 (2011) Separate Financial Statements 1 January 2013 HKAS 28 (2011) Investments in Associates and 1 January 2013 Joint Ventures

The directors of the Company anticipate that the adoption of the above new revised standards and amendments to standards may result in new or amended presentation and disclosures on the condensed consolidated interim financial information but will have no significant impact on the Group’s results and financial position. The directors of the Company will adopt the new revised standards and amendments to standards when they become effective.

4 Estimates

The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2010.

5 Segment information

The Group’s businesses are managed according to the nature of their operations and the products and services they provide. Each of the Group’s operating segments represents a strategic business unit that offers products and services which are subject to risks and returns that are different from those of other operating segments.

The Group is organized on a worldwide basis into two main operating segments. They are (i) Monitors; and (ii) TVs.

Others mainly comprise the sales of chassis, spare parts, CKD/SKD and other general corporate items.

The Group’s chief operating decision-maker assesses the performance of the operating segments based on a measure of adjusted operating profit. Export incentives received, fiscal refund received, finance income, finance costs and share of profits less losses of associated companies and jointly controlled entities are not included in the result for each operating segment that is reviewed by the Group’s chief operating decision- maker.

Sales are categorized according to the final destination of shipment. There are no inter-segment sales.

Segment assets consist primarily of intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, land use rights, inventories, trade receivables, deposits and prepayments, and other receivables. They exclude investment properties, investments in associates and jointly controlled entities, available-for-sale financial assets, deferred income tax assets, non-current other receivables, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, current income tax recoverable, derivative financial instruments, pledged bank deposits and cash and cash equivalents, which are managed on a central basis. These are included in the reconciliation to total balance sheet assets.

– I-105 – APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

Segment liabilities mainly comprise trade payables, other payables and accruals and warranty provisions. They exclude borrowings and loans, current income tax liabilities, deferred tax liabilities and derivative financial instruments, which are managed on a central basis.

The directors of the Company and the management of the Philips Business are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Stub Period Comparative Financial Information in accordance with the basis of presentation set out in Note 6 of Section II below, and the accounting policies set out in Note 3 of Section II below and the accounting policies adopted by the Group as set out in the interim report of the Company for the six months ended 30 June 2011.

– II-2 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Stub Period Comparative Financial Information based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Review Engagements 2410, ‘‘Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity’’ issued by the HKICPA. A review of Stub Period Comparative Financial Information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with HKSA and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Stub Period Comparative Financial Information, for the purpose of this report and presented on the basis set out in Note 6 of Section II below, is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the accounting policies set out in Note 3 of Section II below.

II. NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

1. PARTICULARS OF THE BUSINESS AND THE TARGET GROUP

Background

On 18 April 2011, TPV Technology Limited (‘‘TPV’’) and Royal Philips Electronics N.V. (‘‘Philips’’) announced that they have entered into a term sheet to transfer the Philips television business into a joint venture as part of a long-term strategic partnership (the ‘‘Transaction’’). The new joint venture will be 70% owned by TPV and 30% by Philips.

The joint venture (‘‘JVCo’’) will be responsible for the design, manufacturing, distribution, marketing and sales of Philips television business worldwide,with the exception of mainland China, India, United States, Canada, Mexico and certain countries in South America (the ‘‘Philips Business’’). As part of the transaction, Philips will grant the joint venture the right to use the Philips brand, under certain strict quality and customer care standards, for the Philips television business worldwide, excluding the above-mentioned territories. In addition, Philips will receive revenue-based royalty payments from the joint venture. Philips has existing brand license agreements in mainland China, India and North America, which will not move to the JVCo.

The contemplated transaction comprises certain assets and liabilities related to the Philips television business and not to specific legal or statutory entities. Prior to the acquisition, Philips Business did not exist as a statutory group and no separate statutory accounts were therefore prepared. Accordingly, carve out financial statements have been prepared. The Netherlands headquarters of the Philips Business have been considered as parent of the Philips Business (as defined under HKAS 27). The Philips Business comprises the management reporting units in which the Philips television business that will be contributed to the JVCo was carried out.

These financial statements are presented in US Dollar unless otherwise stated.

2. CARVE OUT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In connection with the Transaction, carve out financial statements have been derived from the consolidated financial statements and historical accounting records of Philips.

The Combined Financial Statements of the Philips Business have been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (‘‘HKFRS’’), issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (‘‘HKICPA’’). The Combined Financial Statements have been prepared on a carve out basis, as explained in the Basis of Presentation set out in note 6 below.

The Combined Financial Statements comprise the Combined Income Statement, the Combined Statements of Comprehensive Income, the Combined Statements of Financial Position, the Combined Statements of Cash Flows and the Combined Statements of changes in equity of the Philips Business on a carve out basis.

The carve out financial statements for the Philips Business are purported to reflect the historical results of operations, and the historical assets and liabilities of the Philips television business that will be transferred to JVCo.

The Philips Business was a separate reporting unit within the Consumer Lifestyle Sector of Philips. The Philips Business has customers in common with other units within the Consumer Lifestyle Sector. Sales to customers are managed via shared National Sales Organizations for the Consumer Lifestyle Sector.

– II-10 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

Furthermore, the Philips Business uses infrastructure and corporate services from Philips, such as InformationTechnology,HumanResources, legal and financial administrative services. Where account balances on the Combined Statements of Financial Position or the Combined Income Statements were allocated, these allocations were made on a specifically identifiable basis or using relative percentages, as compared to Philips’ other businesses, of the Philips Business’s net sales, headcount, floor area usage or other reasonable methods.

Expenses, such as general and administrative, selling and research and development, in the carve out financial statements include allocations from Philips which have been historically charged based upon revenue or headcount or other methods. For further detailsreferenceismadetothebasisofpresentation included in note 6.

Management believes the assumptions underlying the carve out financial statements to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services provided by Philips. However, the costs the Philips Business would have incurred or will incur as a separate stand-alone group may be higher or lower than the cost allocations reflected in these combined carve out financial statements. As such, the carve out financial statements may not necessarily reflect the financial position, results of operations or cash flows that Philips Business might have had in the past, or might have in the future, if the Philips Business had existed as a separate, stand-alone business during the periods presented.

Going concern

The Philips Business has been funded by Philips in the past and the periods presented. Based on variousanalysesperformedandcashflowforecastsprepared by management of the Philips Business, the shareholders of the JVCo have indicated their willingness to support the Philips Business up to the presently expected maximum funding need.

Management of the Philips Business is aware that actual results are likely to deviate from current expectations and accordingly there is an inherent risk that actual funding requirements may exceed the presently expected maximum funding need.

In case the contemplated transaction will not be concluded, the Philips Business will continue to exist as part of the Philips organisation. Philips has confirmed that it is its current intention to provide, until the earlier of (i) the first anniversary of date ofapprovaloftheCombinedFinancialStatementsor (ii) the date of completion of the Transaction, the necessary funds, and to cause its subsidiaries to provide the necessary funds, to meet the liabilities of the Philips Business as they fall due. In addition, Philips has confirmed that there is at present no intention to liquidate or cease the operation of the Philips Business within twelve months from date of approval of the Combined Financial Statements. On the basis of the above, the Combined Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in the Combined Financial Statements.

The Combined Financial Statements present the combined assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows attributable to the Philips Business for the years ended 31 December 2008, 2009 and 2010 and the periods ended 4 July 2010 and 3 July 2011.

The Combined Financial Statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of derivative financial instruments, which are carried at fair value.

– II-11 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

Basis of combination

The Combined Financial Statements include the activities that were managed by the Philips Business’s management during the periods presented and that will be part of the JVCo. These activities were combined and in the combination, all intercompany balances and transactions within the Philips Business were eliminated. The transactions and balances with other Philips reporting units have not been eliminated. The balances with these reporting units are presented separately within the Combined Statement of Financial Position, either as assets or liabilities, where these relate to trading activities or included within owner’s net investment where these relate to funding activities. Unrealized gains and losses have also been eliminated in the combination, but only to the extent there is no indication of impairment.

Foreign currencies

a) Functional and presentation currency

The Combined Financial Statements have been prepared in US Dollar as this is the Philips Business’s presentation currency. The functional currency of the majority of the reporting units within Philips Business is Euro unless the primary economic environment requires the use of another currency.

b) Group transactions on combination

The financial statements of foreign entities are translated into US Dollar. Assets and liabilities are translated using the exchange rates on the respective reporting dates. Income and expense items in the Combined Income Statement are translated at weighted average exchange rates during the year. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of other comprehensive income.

c) Transaction and balances

Gains and losses arising from the translation or settlement of foreign-currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities into the functional currency are recognized in the income statement in the period in which they arise. Exchange gains and losses are presented in the Combined Income Statements. Translation differences on derivative financial assets and liabilities are recognised in the Combined Income Statements as part of the fair value gain or loss. When a gain or loss on a non- monetary item is recognised in other comprehensive income, any exchange component of that gain or loss shall be recognised in other comprehensive income. Conversely, when a gain or loss on a non- monetary item is recognised in income statement, any exchange component of that gain or loss shall be recognised in income statement.

Property, plant and equipment

Machinery, installations and test equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the expected economic life of the asset. Gains and losses on the sale of property, plant and equipment are included in other income. Costs related to repair and maintenance activities are expensed in the period in which they are incurred unless leading to an extension of the original lifetime or capacity. The useful lives and residual values are evaluated every year.

Construction in progress is stated at cost and not depreciated until the related assets are ready for use.

– II-12 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

Freehold land is not depreciated. Depreciation ofproperty,plantandequipment,otherthan freehold land, is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their costs to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

The expected useful lives of the tangible fixed assets are as follows:

— Land and Buildings 20 years — Machinery and installations 5 to 10 years — Other equipment 3 to 5 years

Intangible assets

Product development

All research costs are expensed as incurred. Expenditure on development activities, whereby research findings are applied to a plan or design for the production of new or substantially improved products and processes, is capitalized as an intangibleassetiftheproductorprocessistechnicallyand commercially feasible and the Philips Business has sufficient resources and the intention to complete development. The Philips Business will have access to 3D TV technology developed by Philips.

The development expenditure capitalized includes the costs of materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of overheads. Other development expenditures and expenditures on research activities are recognized in the Combined Income Statement. Capitalized development expenditure is stated at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses. Amortization of capitalized development expenditure is charged to the Combined Income Statement on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the intangible assets.

Software

Costs relating to the development and purchase of software for internal use are capitalized and subsequently amortized over the estimated useful life.

Licenses

Costs relating to the purchase of licenses are capitalized and subsequently amortized over the estimated useful life, which does not exceed the term of the license.

The expected useful lives of the intangibles assets are as follows:

— Product development 1–2years — Software 1–8years — Licenses term of the license (1–5years) — Other 1–8years

Impairment of fixed assets

The Philips Business reviews the tangible and intangible fixed assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset with the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the greater of its estimated value in use or fair value less costs to sell, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the recoverable amount. The review for impairment is carried out at the level where discrete cash flows occur that are largely independent of other cash flows (i.e. at cash generating unit level).

– II-13 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the reversal of previously recognised impairment loss is recognised in the Combined Income Statement.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realisable value. The cost of inventories comprises all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. The costs of conversion of inventories include direct labour and fixed and variable production overheads (at normal operating capacity), taking into account the stage of completion. It excludes borrowing costs. The cost of inventories is determined using the weighted average method. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less applicable variable selling expenses. An allowance is made for the estimated losses due to obsolescence. This allowance is determined for groups of products based on purchases in the recent past and/or expected future demand.

Receivables

Receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently carried at the lower of amortized cost or the present value of estimated future cash flows, taking into account discounts given or agreed. The present value of estimated future cash flows is determined through the use of allowances for doubtful accounts. As soon as individual trade accounts receivable can no longer be collected in a normal way, they are designated as doubtful trade accounts receivable and valued at the expected collectible amounts. They are written off when they are deemed to be uncollectable because of bankruptcy or other form of receivership at the debtor. The allowance for the risk of non-collection of trade receivables takes into account credit-risk concentration, collective debt risk based on average historical losses and specific circumstances such as serious adverse economic conditions in a certain country or region.

Trade and other payables

Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer). If not,they are presented as non-current liabilities.

Trade and other payables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Revenue recognition

Sale of goods

Revenue for sale of goods is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of the ownership have transferred to the buyer, recovery of the consideration is probable, the associated costs and possible return of the goods can be reliably estimated, there is no continuing involvement with goods and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. These criteria are generally met at the time the product is shipped and delivered to the customer and, depending on the delivery conditions, title and risk have passed to the customer and acceptance of the product, when contractually required, has been obtained, or, in cases where such acceptance is not contractually required, when management has established that all aforementioned conditions for revenue recognition have been met and no further post-shipment obligations exist. Examples of the above-mentioned delivery conditions are ‘Free on Board point of delivery’ and ‘Costs, Insurance Paid point of delivery’, where the point of delivery may be the shipping warehouse or any other point of destination as agreed in the contract with the customer and where title and risk in the goods pass to the customer.

– II-14 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

Revenues are recorded net of sales taxes, customer discounts, rebates and similar charges. For products for which a right of return exists during a defined period, revenue recognition is determined based on the historical pattern of actual returns, or in cases where such information is lacking, revenue recognition is postponed until the return period has lapsed. Return policies are typically in conformity with customary return arrangements in local markets.

Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are recognized as revenues. Expenses incurred for shipping and handling costs of internal movements of goods are recorded as cost of sales. Shipping and handling costs related to sales to third parties are reported as other direct expenses.

A provision for product warranty is made at the time of the revenue recognition and reflects the estimated costs of replacement and free-of-charge services that will be incurred by the Philips Business with respect to the products. For certain products, the customer has the option to purchase an extension of the warranty, which is subsequently billed to the customer. Revenue is then recognised on a straight- line basis over the warranty period.

Other income and expense

Other income mainly represents charges to other Philips reporting units that operated television businesses in territories that will not be accessible to the JVCo, as these territories have already been licensed out by Philips to other parties during the years 2008, 2009 and 2010. The charges reflect costs incurred by the Philips Business recharged to these reporting units in 2008, 2009 and 2010 based on the global Philips transfer pricing structure as laid down in general services agreements. No such recharges have occurred or are expected to occur after 2010.

Other income is recognized as services are rendered. Other expenses are recorded when services are received and costs are incurred.

Employee Benefit accounting

(a) Pension obligations

The Philips Business and its employees participate in a number of defined contribution schemes in various countries around the world, the assets of which are held separately from those of the Philips Business in independently administered funds. Contributions are made to these schemes based on a certain percentage of the employees’ salaries. The Philips Business also participates in defined benefit plans of Philips. These are accounted for in a similar manner to the defined contribution schemes for the purpose of these Combined Financial Statements (refer to note 6).

(b) Termination benefits

Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated by the Philips Business before the normal retirement date, or whenever an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The Philips Business recognises termination benefits when it is demonstrably committed to a termination when the entity has a detailed formal plan to terminate the employment of current employees without possibility of withdrawal. In the case of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy, the termination benefits are measured based on the number of employees expected to accept the offer. Benefits falling due more than 12months after the end of the reporting period are discounted to their present value.

(c) Bonus plans

The Philips Business recognises a liability and an expense for bonuses on an accrual basis. The Philips Business recognises a provision where contractually obliged or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation.

– II-15 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

Shared based compensation expenses

Certain members of management and certain employees are eligible to participate in certain equity settled Philips’ employee share based compensation plans. The Philips Business receives an allocation of share based compensation expenses recognised at the level of Philips. Philips recognizes share based compensation expenses at the estimated fair value, measured as of grant date of equity instruments granted to employees as personnel expense over the vesting period on a straight-line basis, taking into account forfeitures. The fair value of the equity instruments has been determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

The Philips Business measures the estimated fair value as of grant date of equity instruments and recognises the expense over the vesting period.

Income tax

Income tax comprises current and deferred income tax. As the Philips Business previously did not exist in separate legal entities, current income tax positions included in the Combined Statements of Financial Position are reflected in owner’s net investment. The current income tax charge is based on enacted tax rates and the result before tax.

Deferred income tax is recognized using the liability method, for the expected tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied when temporary differences reverse, based on laws that are enacted or substantially enacted at reporting date. Changes in tax rates are reflected in the period when the change has been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset the current income tax payable and receivable and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authorities.

A deferred tax asset is recognized for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilized.

Leases

Leases in which substantially all risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases, net of any incentives received from the lessor, are recognized in the Combined Income Statements on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

Derivative financial instruments

The Philips Business uses derivative financial instruments principally to manage its foreign currency risks. All derivative financial instruments are classified under derivative financial assets or derivative financial liabilities and are accounted for as of trade date. They are included in current assets or liabilities,except for maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the reporting period.

The Philips Business measures all derivative financial instruments based on fair values which have been estimated based on discounted cash flow valuation techniques, using directly observable market inputs. Changes in fair value are recognized in the Combined Income Statement, under ‘‘Realised and unrealised gains/(losses) on foreign exchange forward contracts — net’’.

– II-16 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

Provisions

Provisions are recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Philips Business has a present legal or constructive legal obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation. The increase in the provisions due to the passage of time is recognized as interest expenses.

A provision for warranties is recognized when the underlying products are sold. The provision is based on historical warranty data and a weighting of possible outcomes against their associated probabilities.

The provision for restructuring relates to the estimated costs of initiated reorganizations that have been approved by the Philips’ Board of Management and which involve the realignment of certain parts of the industrial and commercial organization. When such reorganizations require discontinuance and/or closure of lines of activities, the anticipated costs of closure are included in restructuring provisions. A liability is recognized for those costs only when the Philips Business has a detailed formal plan for the restructuring and has raised a valid expectation with those affected that it will carry out the restructuring by starting to implement the plan or announcing its main features to those affected by it.

4. IMPACT OF ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE HONG KONG FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS

The following new standards and amendments to existing standards, which have been published and are mandatory and relevant for the Philips Business on or after 3 July 2011 or later periods, but have not been early adopted:

HKFRS 9 Financial Instruments

This standard introduces certain new requirements for classifying and measuring financial assets and liabilities. HKFRS 9 divides all financial assets that are currently in the scope of HKAS 39 into two classifications, those measured at amortized cost and those measured at fair value. The standard along with proposed expansion of HKFRS 9 for impairment and hedge accounting will be applicable from the year 2013, although entities are permitted to adopt it earlier. The new standard will be applied from 1 January 2013. The Philips Business is assessing the potential impact from this new standard.

HKFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements

This standard supersedes HKAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements and HK (SIC) — 12 Consolidation — Special Purpose Entities. The objective of HKFRS 10 is to establish principles for the presentation and preparation of consolidated financial statements when an entity controls one or more other entities. This standard is not expected to have a significant impact on the financial statements of the Philips Business. The standard is not applicable until 1 January 2013 but available for early adoption. The Philips Business will apply the standard from 1 January 2013.

Amendment to HKFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures

The revised standard addresses additional disclosure requirements on transfer of financial assets in situations where assets are reclassified. This amendment is applicable for annual periods starting on or after 1 July 2011. The amendment requires additional disclosures for risk exposures arising from transferred financial assets and no disclosures are required for prior periods. No significant change in disclosure in the financial statements is expected. The Philips Business will apply the amendment from 1 January 2012.

– II-17 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

HKFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement

This standard defines fair value, sets out in a single HKFRS a framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. HKFRS 13 is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. This standard is not expected to have a significant impact on the financial statements of the Philips Business. The Philips Business will apply the standard from 1 January 2013.

Amendment to HKAS 1 — amendment to revise the way other comprehensive income is presented

This amendment revises the way other comprehensive income is presented. The amendment is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2011. The Philips Business will adopt the amendment on 1 January 2012. The Philips Business is assessing the potential impact from this new standard.

Amendment to HKAS 19 — employee benefits

This amendment eliminates the use of the ‘‘corridor approach’’ from HKAS 19, enhances disclosures and modifies accounting for termination benefits. The amendment is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. This amendment is not expected to have a significant impact on the financial statements of the Philips Business. The Philips Business will apply the amendment from 1 January 2013.

5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

The preparation of the Combined Financial Statements in conformity with HKFRS requires management to make judgement, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies, the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the carve out financial statements. These estimates and judgements are evaluated on an on-going basis and are based on experience, current and expected future conditions, third party evaluations and various other assumptions that are considered reasonable under the circumstances. The results of these estimates form the basis for making judgements about the carrying value of assets and liabilities as well as identifying and assessing the accounting treatment with respect to commitments and contingencies. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates significantly impact the valuation of intangibles, financial instruments, the warranty provisions and the basis for allocation of accounts between reporting units within Philips and other provisions.

Intangible assets

The Philips Business capitalizes internal development spend on new products. Although the Philips Business has been loss making in the periods under review, the carrying value of the development projects of the Philips Business are below their value in use, as these development projects are necessary to ensure the product portfolio of the Philips Business is state of the art and external revenues are generated. The impairment analyses are performed at product range level. Critical assumptions and estimates to determine value in use are the expected future sales levels and expected gross margin percentages.

In case 10% of intangible assets carried on the Combined Statements of Financial Position as at 3 July 2011 would require impairment, this would have a USD3 million negative impact on operating loss.

– II-18 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

Estimated impairment of fixed assets

The Philips Business annually tests whether fixed assets have suffered any impairment, in accordance with the accounting policy stated in note 3. The recoverable amounts of cash-generating units have been determined based on the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value-in-use.

Critical assumptions and estimates to determine value in use are the expected future sales levels, expected gross margin percentages and the discount rate. For tangible fixed assets, the fair value less costs to sell is determined based on appraisals.

Non-financial assets that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.

The fair value less costs to sell of property, plant and equipment is above the net book value. A reduction of 10% of the fair value would not triggeranimpairmentofproperty,plantandequipment.

Useful lives of property, plant and equipment

The Philips Business’s management determines the estimated useful lives and related depreciation charges for its plant and equipment. This estimate is based on the historical experience of the actual useful lives of plant and equipment of similar nature and functions. It could change significantly as a result of technical innovations and competitor actions in response to competition within the industry. Management will increase the depreciation where useful lives are less than previously estimated lives, or it will write-off or write-down technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold.

Inventory valuation and obsolescence provision

Due to the significant price erosion and technological developments, inventory valuation requires significant forward looking estimates on future sales levels, future price erosion and related expected gross margin percentages. On each reporting date, management performs an extensive analysis of net realisable values and determines the lower of cost and net realisable value to measure its inventories.

In case 10% of the inventory carried on the balance sheet as at 3 July 2011 would be unsellable, this would have an adverse impact on operating loss of USD47 million going forward.

Estimation of provision for impairment of receivables

The Philips Business makes provision for impairment of receivables based on an assessment of the collectability of trade and other receivables. Provisions for impairment are applied to trade and other receivables where events or changes in circumstances indicate that the balances may not be collectible. The identification of doubtful debts requires the use of judgement and estimates. Where the expectation is different from the original estimate, such difference will impact the carrying amount of receivables and doubtful debt expense in the period in which such estimate is changed.

The Philips Business’s historical experience in collection of trade and other receivables falls within the recorded allowances.

Rebate accruals

The customers of the Philips Business, which are common with the Philips’ Consumer Lifestyle Sector, receive discounts based on meeting certain performance criteria, such as volume commitments. Rebates are paid out on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis. Actual settlements may differ from the accrued amounts, which are based on management’s best estimate. If actual rebates would be 10%

– II-19 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

higher/lower than the original estimate, this would result in a decrease/increase in revenues between USD3 million and USD4 million in the periods presented. The Philips Business’shistoricalexperienceof actual rebates paid out falls within the recorded accruals.

Fair value of derivatives and other financial instruments

The Philips Business manages its exposure on foreign currency purchases (mostly in US Dollar) and sales using forward exchange contracts, which are reported at fair value. The fair value of the forward exchange contracts has been determined using discounted cash flow calculations using directly observable market inputs (level 2).

Warranty provisions

The Philips Business gives warranties on certain products and undertakes to repair or replace items that fail to perform satisfactorily ranging from twelve to thirty-six months. Significant judgement is required in determining the warranty expenses. The Philips Business estimates the warranty expensesbasedontheactualrepairandreplacementcostsincurredfortheproductssoldinthelast thirty-six months. Where the warranty expenses incurred are different from the original provision, such difference would impact the Combined Income Statement in the period in which the warranty expenses are incurred.

If cost of warranty would be 10% higher/lower from the estimates, this would result in additional/lower warranty costs of approximately USD11 million in the periods presented. The Philips Business’s historical experience of warranty costs falls within the recorded provisions.

Contingent liabilities

The Philips Business had certain pending litigations at the reporting date. Significant judgement is required in determining whether it is more likely than not that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the pending litigations in which case an accrual for the potential litigation expenses is recognised.

Basis of allocation

The nature of carve out financial statements requires management to make estimates of a reasonable allocation key for assets, liabilities and costs shared with other business groups within the Consumer Lifestyle division of Philips as well as within the Philips Group. These allocations were performed on a manner deemed reasonable by management and are explained in the Basis of Presentation hereafter. Different allocation keys could have resulted in different outcomes.

The basis of allocation may not be representative of the actual financial positions of the Philips Business in the future when it is operated by JVCo.

– II-20 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

6. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Various accounts in the Statement of Financial Position contain balances which were not separately distinguished or reported for the Philips Business in the past. Where balances are not dedicated, allocations are necessary. Where account balances on the Statement of Financial Position were allocated, these allocations were made on a specifically identifiable basis or using relative percentages, as compared to Philips’ other businesses, of the Philips Business’s net sales, headcount, floor area usage or other reasonable methods.

The following balances contain material allocated balances:

Combined Statements of Financial Position

— Property, plant and equipment: in the assembly locations in Hungary, Brazil and Argentina the buildings are shared between the Philips Business and other Consumer Lifestyle activities. The allocation of the net book value of the buildings to the Philips Business has been performed based on floor area usage of the Philips Business. In the Bruges Research & Development site, the property is rented and only used by the Philips Business. For all other sites, the Philips Business is using Philips facilities and is charged an annual fee for the usage of facilities.

— Accounts receivable of National Sales Organisations: since the Philips Business and other Philips Consumer Lifestyle activities have common customers, the debtor balances are not separately tracked for the Philips Business. To have a more precise presentation of accounts receivable in the carve out financial statements, the receivables were split by product category, with certain product categories being dedicated to the different Business Groups after which there were remaining unallocated balances, due to partial payments, general credit notes and other debtor balances not yet assigned to product categories.

These remaining unallocated balances were allocated between the Philips Business and other Consumer Lifestyle activities based on the outstanding receivables of the Philips Business as percentage of the total outstanding receivables.

— Rebate accruals relate to common Consumer Lifestyle customers and have been allocated based on relative sales share of the Philips Business as a percentage of total Consumer Lifestyle sales.

— Accounts payable: Bill of Material related trade creditors are accounted for separately in the Philips Business (suppliers of materials such as panels and components). Creditors for shared costs of the organisation have joint creditor balances, which were allocated to the Philips Business based on allocation keys (Full Time Equivalent employees (‘‘FTE’’)orcostshare,reflectingthe nature of the related charges).

— Other liabilities and accrued liabilities were allocated to the Philips Business based on allocation keys (either sales, FTE or cost share), as deemed relevantbythenatureoftheaccruedcosts.

Combined Income Statements

— Salaries, wages and pensions: part of salaries and wages is dedicated (mainly direct FTEs in the factories). In the case of salaries and wages, including pension costs and social security, they have been allocated based on relative sales share in 2008 and 2009. In 2010, an estimate of FTEs working for the Philips Business has been used to allocate salaries and wages as the Philips Business management believed this reflects the key drivers of the costs more accurately. The impact of this change in accounting estimate has not had a material impact on the financial statements.

– II-21 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

— Other shared costs: certain costs of organisation shared with other Consumer Lifestyle activities, have been allocated based on relative sales share in 2008 and 2009. In 2010, an estimate of FTEs working for the Philips Business has been used to allocate costs within the other costs of organisation as the Philips Business management believed this reflects the key drivers of the costs more accurately. The impact of this change in accounting estimate has not had a material impact on the financial statements.

Share based compensation

Certain employees working (part of their time) for the Philips Business are entitled to stock options of Philips. The related share based compensation expenses have been allocated to the Philips Business based on an estimate of the services delivered (time spent) by the employees to the Philips Business.

As several employees that hold or have been granted stock options are not specifically related to the Philips Business, it is not practical nor feasible to prepare an overview of outstanding stock options or stock options granted at the Philips Business in accordance with HKFRS 2 paragraphs 45 and 47 and as such this overview has not been presented in the notes to the Combined Financial Statements.

Pensions

The Philips Business has accounted for its participation in externally funded Philips sponsored pension plans as plans under common control in line with HKAS 19 paragraph 34A and 34B. As a result related pension assets and liabilities are not included in the Philips Business’s Statement of Financial Position and the Philips Business has recognized its contributions payable for the period, which is considered, in absence of any formal agreements, equal to the service costs allocated to them.

The annual service costs are considered to equal the pension premiums settled via the intercompany funding accounts with other Philips group companies.

Corporate income tax

The Philips Business has been in a combined loss making position in the periods presented. Certain parts of the Philips Business are remunerated on a ‘‘cost plus’’ or ‘‘market minus’’ transfer pricing structure and thus generate taxable profits. Residual results of the activities are with other reporting units (manufacturing locations and other entities that perform certain functions such as fulfilment of warranty obligations referred to as ‘‘Regional Entrepreneur Locations’’) of the Philips Business that act as the economic risk takers in the transfer pricing structure.

A ‘‘cost plus’’ transfer pricing structure is a reimbursement methodology based on actual costs incurred with a mark-up to reflect the services delivered and economic risk taken by that part of the organisation. A ‘‘market minus’’ transfer pricing structure is a reimbursement methodology based on a net margin of actual revenues to reflect the services delivered and economic risk taken by that part of the organisation.

– II-22 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

The activities of the Philips Business are operated by a series of local legal entities that also operate other businesses of Philips. The Philips Business does not comprise any individual legal entities, but only management reporting units. Considering that these reporting units are not individual legal entities, the separate return approach is applied.

In the separate return method of allocation, current and deferred tax expense or benefit for the period is determined for each member of a combined group by applying the requirements of HKAS 12 as if that group member was filing a separate tax return. Under the separate return method, the sum of the amounts allocated to the individual group members sometimes may not equal the actual total amount of current and deferred income tax expense, or benefit for the carve out business. Any difference is considered as a combination adjustment and is recorded through owner’snetinvestment.

Thecurrentincometaxchargeisbasedonthestatutorytaxratewithintherelevanttax jurisdiction and the income tax payable and deferred taxation is recorded as part of owner’snet investment.

The losses of the Philips Business mainly accumulate in the manufacturing locations and the Regional Entrepreneur Locations. As there was no expectation that these manufacturing and entrepreneur locations would return to taxable profits in the near future, no deferred tax assets have been recognized. Deferred tax positions are only recognized in case taxable profits are made or expected to be made in the foreseeable future. The unrecognised tax losses will not transfer to the JVCo.

Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the CEO of the Philips Business that makes strategic decisions.

Owner’snetinvestment

As indicated, the Philips Group (including the Philips Business) utilises a central approach to cash management and the funding of its operations. On the absence of a contractual obligation to deliver cash or other financial assets in relation to the funding from other Philips reporting units and the fact that the balances will not be settled with Philips Business’s own equity instruments,all balances with other Philips reporting units are presented as owner’s net investment in the carve out financial statements.

– II-23 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

Combined Statements of Cash Flows

The Philips Group utilises a central approach to cash management and the financing of its operations. Cash deposits of the Philips Group are pooled and transferred to a Central Treasury function on a daily basis. As the Philips Business did not operate or exist as a separate legal entity, during the period of the combined financial statements, no amounts for cash, cash equivalents and debt have been reflected within the Combined Financial Statements.

The cash flow statements are prepared using the indirect method. Cash flows in foreign currencies have been translated into US Dollars using the weighted average exchange rate for the periods involved.

As the Philips Business does not have a separate tax paying relation towards tax authorities (all relations with tax authorities are via shared Philips legal entities), the income tax charge for the period equals the income tax paid, as it has been assumed that the tax charge is directly settled via owner’snet investment.

7. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Management has determined the operating segments based on the reports reviewed by the chief operating decision-maker (the ‘‘CODM’’), the Chief Executive Officer (‘‘CEO’’) of the Philips Business, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments.

The Philips Business is structured in two market-oriented product lines: Consumer TV and Hospitality TV. Consumer TV comprises the sales of TV sets to end customers through various distribution channels and is reported in further detail along geographical segments. Hospitality TV comprises business-to-business sales to hotels, hospitals and other large hospitality institutions.

Reports used by the chief operating decision-maker used for strategic decisions and resource allocation, separately distinguish Consumer TV and Hospitality TV and the key sales geographies for Consumer TV.

Certain countries are grouped in territories: Benelux reflects The Netherlands, Belgium and Luxemburg. Nordics reflects Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Finland. Iberia refers to Spain and Portugal. Central and Eastern Europe includes Hungary, Czech Republic, Poland, Slovakia, Greece and the Baltic states. Emerging cluster includes Turkey, Hong Kong and Taiwan.

10. OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSE

Other income and expense reflect cost recharges under general service agreements from the operating reporting units included in the Philips Business to other Philips operating reporting units, which are not part of the contemplated transaction. These mainly comprise reporting units in the US and the People’sRepublic of China (‘‘PRC’’)thatoperatedPhilips’ TV businesses, which were licensed out by Philips in 2009 and 2010 respectively.

The other income/(expense) can be split by geography as follows:

Year ended Six months ended 31 December 4 July 3 July in USD m 2008 2009 2010 2010 2011 Unaudited

US 43 8 ——— PRC 19 27 12 6 — Other countries 8 10 1 3 — Charges from Lighting Sector Philips for Hospitality TV — (24) (7) ——

Total 70 21 6 9 —

In 2009 and 2010, the Hospitality TV business was managed as a part of the Lighting Sector of Philips. As a result, the Lighting Sector of Philips incurred certain costs that it charged out to the Hospitality TV segment.

The other income/(expense) can be split by nature as follows:

Year ended Six months ended 31 December 4 July 3 July in USD m 2008 2009 2010 2010 2011 Unaudited

R&D cost recharges 35 18 6 3 — Corporate cost recharges 35 18 6 3 — Other — 91 3— Charges from Lighting Sector Philips for Hospitality TV — (24) (7) ——

Total 70 21 6 9 —

The Research &Development (‘‘R&D’’) and corporate cost recharges are internal cost recharges that have been determined using Philips’ transfer pricing methodologies. The costs are predominantly recharged based on relative sales share of each reporting unit. As these cost recharges in FY11 are only made to reporting units that will transfer to the JVCo (and therefore are within the perimeter of the combination), no such other income will recur from FY11 onwards.

11. INCOME TAX EXPENSE

Income tax expense amounted to USD5 million in six months ended 3 July 2011 (six months ended 4 July 2010: USD10 million, years ended 31 December 2010, 2009 and 2008: USD20 million, USD19 million and USD19 million respectively). The income tax expense only comprises current income taxes. No deferred tax assets or liabilities exist in the majority of the countries in which the Philips Business operates, as there are no differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the Combined Financial Statements. In a number of countries where the Philips Business operates and where deferred tax positions exist, deferred tax liabilities have been computed, and to the extent there are tax losses in the same fiscal jurisdiction, a deferred tax asset is recognised for a similar offsetting amount. Any deferred tax assets recognized are limited to the amount of deferred tax liabilities that have been computed and recognized. If there are excess tax losses, no further deferred tax assets have been recognised considering the significant tax losses incurred and carried forward by the Philips Business. The unrecognised tax losses will not transfer to theJVCo(seenote6).

The income tax expense for the year can be reconciled to the accounting result as follows:

Year ended Six months ended 31 December 4 July 3 July in USD m 2008 2009 2010 2010 2011 Unaudited

Income tax expense recognised in Combined Income Statements 19 19 20 10 5

The primary rate of 25.5% is the current statutory tax rate in the Netherlands, where the Philips Business has its headquarter and major operations. For the years 2008 up to 2010 and six months’ periods ended 4 July 2010 and 3 July 2011, the primary tax rate in the Netherlands was 25.5%.

There was no material tax effect of items included in other comprehensive income, which were not included in the Combined Income Statements.

– II-33 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

The write-offs of fully amortized assets are not separately shown in the changes in book value above.

Research and development cost relates to product development carried out by the Philips Business. An impairment of USD21 million has been charged to the result for six months ended 3 July 2011 (six months ended 4 July 2010: USD2 million; years ended 31 December 2010, 2009 and 2008: USD8 million, USD2 million and USD21 million respectively). These write downs relate to terminations of the development projects for new products or lower than expected sales from the developed product. The impairment in 2008 was mainly caused by the more negative outlook on development in sales at the end of 2008.

Amortization and impairment of intangible assets are included in the Combined Income Statements as follows:

The allowance for doubtful accounts receivable equals the balance of trade receivables that were impaired.

The Philips Business has entered into non-recourse factoring for some of its trade receivables in 2008 and 2009 and it was ceased in 2010 and subsequent periods. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of receivables mentioned above. The Philips Business does not hold any collateral as security.

15. INVENTORIES

Inventories are summarised as follows:

31 December 31 December 31 December 3 July in USD m 2008 2009 2010 2011

Components 104 94 192 170 Finished goods 257 106 334 322 Inventory obsolescence provision (10) (10) (20) (19)

Total 351 190 506 473

The write-down of inventories to realizable value amounted to USD51 million for six months ended 3 July 2011 (six months ended 4 July 2010: USD7 million, years ended 2010, 2009 and 2008: USD212 million, USD43 million and USD19 million respectively). The write-down is included in cost of goods sold. Reference is also made to note 9 for cost of inventories included in the operating loss.

Circumstances resulting in the higher write downs of inventories in 2010 were mainly resulting from the oversupply in the market (both TV-sets at distributors, as well as the Philips Business and its competitors), technological developments and global price reductions for panels.

No inventories have been pledged as security.

Product warranty provisions

The Philips Business gives warranties on certain products and undertakes to repair or replace items that fail to perform satisfactorily within a period ranging from twelve months to thirty-six months.

– II-41 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

The movement in the product warranty provisions is analysed as follows:

Closing balance at reporting date 100 134 114 103

The provision as at 3 July 2011 had been made for expected warranty claims on the products sold during the last thirty-six months. Warranty periods typically do not exceed 3 years.

The actual utilization of the provision will depend on the number of returns and the actual cost of repairs, which may differ from management’sestimate.

It is expected that the majority of this provision will be utilized in the next financial year, and all will be utilized within three years of the reporting date.

Theincreaseinproductwarrantyprovisionsin2009 is caused by a failing component supplied by a third party supplier.

Any expected reimbursements from suppliers are presented in other current assets, ‘‘claims on suppliers’’.

Restructuring-related provisions

In relation to the restructuring of its organisation, the Philips Business has recorded restructuring costs in relation to announced reorganisations. The restructuring provision covers expected termination benefit payments to employees that are declared redundant as well as other expenses related to the restructuring. The movement in the restructuring-related provision is as follows:

31 December 31 December 31 December 3 July in USD m 2008 2009 2010 2011

Closing balance at reporting date 32 86 50 31

The additions to restructuring related provisions reflect cost of employee termination plans and various other closure costs.

The additions to the restructuring provisions in 2008 predominantly relate to the Philips Business’s earn-to-invest program started in 2008. In this program, the Philips Business has streamlined its organisation, reduced headcount and closed a number of smaller reporting units. The addition in 2009 mainly relates to the closure of the Philips Business’s production facility in Dreux in France.

– II-42 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

The provision as at 3 July 2011 mainly relates to final settlements in relation to the restructuring announced in Dreux in France and Bruges in Belgium. It is expected that the majority of the provision will be paid out within the next financial year and all will be utilized within three years of the reporting date.

Other provisions

Other provisions mainly relate to employee related liabilities, loss contingencies and other-long term accrued liabilities:

Foreign currency revaluation reflects translation effects on the combination of the financial information.

The accumulated losses are the losses incurred in the periods presented.

The owner’s funding reflects the funding that other Philips reporting units have provided to the Philips Business to finance the net fund outflows in the periods presented.

– II-47 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

25. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

The Philips Business accounts for the contingent liabilities in accordance with HKAS 37. Provisions are recognised when the Philips Business has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.

As part of the Transaction, Philips will indemnify the JVCo from liabilities coming from all known pending litigation. However such indemnifications by Philips to the JVCo have not been taken into account for the preparation of these Combined Financial Statements, in line with the basis of presentation.

a. Environmental remediation

The Philips Business is subject to environmental laws and regulations. Under these laws, the Philips Business may be required to remediate the effects of the release or disposal of certain chemicals on the environment. The Philips Business accrues for losses associated with environmental obligations when such losses are probable and can be reliably estimated. Such amounts are recognized on a discounted basis since they reflect the present value of estimated future cash flows.

Provisions for environmental remediation can significantly change due to the emergence of additional information regarding the extent or nature of the contamination, the need to utilize alternative technologies, actions by regulatory authorities and changes in judgments, assumptions and discount rates.

In the Bruges Research & Development location soil contamination has been identified. Based on external expert advice, costs of remediation have been estimated at USD0.5 million, which has been provided for in the Combined Financial Statements, within other provisions (see note 19).

In the Brazil assembly site, potential soil contamination has been identified and the investigations are under way to assess the extent of the issue and the required remedial actions. As the significance of the matter and the cost of the remediation cannot be reliably estimated at this stage, no provision has been recorded in the Combined Financial Statements.

b. Legal proceedings

The Philips Business as part of Philips is involved as a party in legal proceedings, including commercial transactions and employment related matters.

For certain legal proceedings, information required under HKAS 37 may not be fully disclosed, if the Philips Business concludes that the disclosure can be expected to prejudice seriously the outcome of the legal proceeding.

i. Former distributors

The Philips Business is engaged in legal disputes with former distributors in several countries, where the distributors claim that Philips unrightfully terminated its distribution agreement. In all of these, based on the advice taken from external legal advisors and internal legal counsel, the Philips Business is of the opinion that the claims have limited basis and are not likely to result in an unfavourable court decision.Onthisbasis,noprovisionshavebeenmade.

– II-48 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

ii. Closing of factory in Dreux, France

In relation to the closing of its factory in Dreux in France, Philips is engaged in a number of legal cases with former employees, who claim additional severance payments in excess of the social plan agreed with the labour unions.

Also in relation to the closure of the factory in Dreux, a former supplier claims damages based on the allegation that its contract was unrightfully terminated.

The management considers an appropriate amount of provision has been recorded based on external legal advice.

iii. Intellectual property rights

Intheordinarycourseofbusiness,anumberoflegal cases exist in relation to infringement of patents used by the Philips Business. There are two patent infringement cases that are considered more significant by management:

— In November 2010, a third party company made allegations against Philips in the Netherlands, concerning claims of damages related to alleged infringement of certain patents in the field of TV, in response to previous assertions made by Philips against this third party.

— In June, 2011, a third party company filed a complaint against Philips in Germany claiming that Philips TVs are captured by their patents for Gemstar free interactive program guides.

On both cases, management of the Philips Business are of the opinion that while the proceedings are still on-going, it is not possible to assess the outcome of the case for the time being. Even if the outcome turns out to be unfavourable, the directors consider that its future settlement may not have any material financial impact on the Philips Business as a whole.

The outcome of the other cases related to intellectual property rights can also not be reliably estimated at this point in time. On this basis, no provisions have been made.

iv. Other

In the ordinary course of business, the Philips Business is involved in a number of legal cases with (former) employees and suppliers. The legal cases with (former) employees mainly relate to the manufacturing location in Manaus in Brazil. The Philips Business vigorously defies the claims made and management of the Philips Business is of the view that while the proceedings are still on-going, it is not possible to assess the outcome of the cases for the time being. Even if the outcomes turn out to be unfavourable, Management of the Philips Business considers these are not of which are likely to have a material impact on the Combined Financial Statements of the Philips Business.

The Philips Business has provided for the above legal cases based on its best estimate of the most probable outcome based on legal advice from external and/or internal legal counsel.

– II-49 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

26. SHARE BASED COMPENSATION

Philips has granted stock options on its common shares and rights to receive common shares in the future (restricted share rights) to Key Management of the Philips Business and certain selected employees. The purpose of the share based compensation plan is to align the interests of management with those of shareholders by providing incentives to improve the Philips performance on a long-term basis, thereby increasing shareholder value. Under the Philips plans, options are granted at fair market value on the date of grant.

The share based compensation expense allocated to the Philips Business amounted to less than USD1 million in the six months period ended 3 July 2011 (six months period ended 4 July 2010: less than USD1 million, years ended 2010, 2009 and 2008: USD1 million, USD1 million and USD3 million respectively).

The fair value of Philips’ option grants in the periods presented was estimated using a Black-Scholes option valuation model and the following weighted average assumptions:

Year ended Six months ended 31 December 4 July 3 July USD Denominated 2008 2009 2010 2010 2011 Unaudited

Risk free interest rate 3.17% 2.25% 2.43% 2.46% Not applicable Expected dividend yield 2.8% 4.1% 3.9% 4.4% Not applicable Expectedoptionlife 6yrs 6.5yrs 6.5yrs 6.5yrs Notapplicable Expected share price volatility 27% 33% 32% 34% Not applicable

Year ended Six months ended 31 December 4 July 3 July EUR Denominated 2008 2009 2010 2010 2011 Unaudited

Risk free interest rate 3.75% 2.88% 2.43% 2.56% 2.81% Expected dividend yield 2.4% 4.3% 4.1% 4.4% 3.3% Expectedoptionlife 6yrs 6.5yrs 6.5yrs 6.5yrs 6.5yrs Expected share price volatility 26% 32% 30% 40% 30%

In the six months’ period ended 3 July 2011, no new USD denominated share options were granted.

The assumptions were used for these calculations only and do not necessarily represent an indication of Management’s expectations of future developments.

The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected price volatility.

Philips has based its volatility assumptions on historical experience for a period equal to the expected life of the options. The expected life of the options is also based on historical experience.

Philips’ employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and changes in the assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate.

27. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION

These Combined Financial Statements include transactions with Philips and its subsidiaries that are outside of the Philips Business (collectively referred to as ‘‘Philips Group’’). Philips Group is a related party as it controlled the Philips Business during the periods presented.

a) General Services Agreement

As explained under note 10, the Philips Business delivered services to reporting units that conducted Philips television business in territories in which the JVCo will not operate. For these services, the fees were charged at arms’ length basis.

b) Philips Group transactions

Besides transactions with reporting units that conducted Philips television business in territories in which JVCo will not operate, the Philips Business enters into transactions with Philips Group for the purchase of goods and services, sale of goods as well as corporate and other infrastructure services provided by the Philips Group. These transactions are generally conducted with terms comparable to those with third parties. Corporate recharges reflect the allocation of costs to the Philips Business of the central service organisation and country organisations of Philips Group. This allocation in periods presented was based on the relative sales share of the Philips Business, except for IT costs, which have been allocated based on the relative share in FTEs of the Philips Business.

An overview of related party transactions with other Philips units is as follows:

Philips Group

Year ended Six months ended 31 December 4 July 3 July in USD m 2008 2009 2010 2010 2011 Unaudited

Sales to Philips Group 42 42 17 9 5 Corporate recharges from Philips Group (295) (204) (176) (78) (98)

There are no other transactions with Philips Group.

c) Transactions with TPV

TPV currently acts as a supplier to the Philips Business. Philips held a 30% share in TPV in 2008 and 2009. The 30% share was sold in full in March 2010. As such TPV has been considered a related party of Philips.

– II-51 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

The overview per below details the related party transactions between TPV and the Philips Business:

TPV

Year ended Six months ended 31 December 4 July 3 July in USD m 2008 2009 2010* 2010* 2011* Unaudited

Purchases from TPV 236 524 145 145 — Trade payables 54 178 ———

* TPV ceased to be a related party as of 9 March 2010, when Philips sold its 30% share in TPV.

d) Remuneration of key management

Key management is under employment of Philips and related salary and other costs are charged to the Philips Business. The related amounts are disclosed under note 24.

e) Financial support

Philips indicated its willingness to financially support the Philips Business should the transaction not be concluded. Furthermore, Philips and TPV have committed to provide funding to the JVCo up to the presently expected maximum funding need in case the transaction is concluded. On this basis, the combined financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis (see note 2).

28. DETAILS OF TREASURY RISK

28.1 Financial risk factors

The Philips Business’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (mainly foreign exchange and country risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Philips Business’s overall risk management programme is based on the Philips overall risk management programme and focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Philips Business’s financial performance. Risk management is carried out by a central treasury department (Philips Group Treasury) under policies approved by the Board of Directors of Philips (‘‘the Board’’). Philips Group Treasury identifies, evaluates and mitigates financial risks in close co-operation with the Group’s operating units. The Board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as written policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, credit risk and use of derivative financial instruments.

a) Market risk

i. Foreign exchange risk

The Philips Business operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures, primarily with respect to US Dollar. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities.

Management has set up a policy to require Philips Business companies to manage their foreign exchange risk against their functional currency. Entities in the Philips Business manage the amount of financial assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies

– II-52 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

together with the use of foreign exchange forward contracts to manage their foreign exchange risk arising from future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities.

Sales by invoice currency can be summarised as follows:

Year ended Six months ended 31 December 4 July 3 July 2008 2009 2010 2010 2011 Unaudited

Euro 52% 57% 51% 52% 47% Other European 12% 10% 9% 9% 9% Brazilian Real 11% 12% 14% 17% 17% Russian Rouble 9% 8% 11% 7% 10% Other 16% 13% 15% 15% 17%

Total 100% 100% 100% 100% 100%

As most sales are generated and realised in the local functional currency of the sales organisations, the sales by currency as reflected above mostly result in translation exposures rather than transaction exposures.

The Philips Business predominantly sources its supply from the PRC, with main suppliers invoicing the Philips Business in US Dollars.

Estimated division of cost of materials by currency can be summarised as follows:

Euro 3% Other European 2% US Dollar 93% Brazilian Real 1% Other 1%

Total 100%

Management of the Philips Business estimates that the composition of material costs by invoice currency has been comparable over all periods presented.

A strengthening/weakening of the US Dollar against the Euro by 1% as at 3 July 2011, with all other variables held constant, would have resulted in pre-tax losses of the Philips Business being approximately USD6 million higher/lower. For 31 December 2010, 2009, 2008 and as at 4 July 2010, this would have been USD11 million, USD8 million, USD8 million and USD9 million, respectively. This is mainly the result of less or more favourable purchasing conditions due to the strengthening/weakening of the US Dollar against the Euro.

– II-53 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

The above sensitivity is prepared based on the assumption that the composition of trade receivables and trade payables by currency at reporting period ends is not expected to significantly differ from the sales and purchases by currency as reflected above.

ii. Price risk

The Philips Business does not have any exposures to price risk, as it does not hold any securities or investments.

iii. Interest risk

The Philips Business does not have any exposures to interest risk, as it does not have any interest bearing borrowings or debt. The funding from the owner is non-interest bearing.

b) Credit risk

The Philips Business’s credit risk mainly arises from derivative financial instruments as well as credit exposures to trade and other receivables. Management has policies in place to monitor the exposures to these credit risks on an on-going basis.

As at 31 December 2008, 2009 and 2010 and 3 July 2011, derivative financial instruments are all traded with high quality financial institutions.

The Philips Business has put in place policies to ensure that sales of products are made to customers with an appropriate credit history and the Philips Business performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers. The receivable positions with customers and the financial position of customers are monitored closely and credit insurance is taken where deemed necessary. There is no significant concentration risk.

The Philips Business’s historical experience in collection of trade and other receivables falls within the recorded allowances. Based on the default history of the repayment from customers, had 10% of the receivables not been collected at 31 December 2008, 2009, 2010 and 3 July 2011, the Group would have recognised an impairment of receivables of USD95 million, USD85 million, USD86 million and USD69 million respectively.

c) Liquidity risk

The Philips Business policy is to regularly monitor current and expected liquidity requirements to ensure that it generates sufficient cash from operating activities and funding from Philips.

To manage its liquidity, the Philips Business prepares cash flow forecasts and analyses the maturity of its financial liabilities on a periodic basis.

The Philips Business has arrangements to factor its trade receivables to banks without recourse or to extend payment terms with certain suppliers, should there be additional liquidity requirements.

– II-54 – APPENDIX II ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE PHILIPS BUSINESS

The table below analyses the Philips Business’s non-derivative financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period at the reporting date to the contractual maturity date. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. The maturity analysis of the gross-settled derivative financial liabilities is disclosed in note 16.

Total 1,207 ——1,207

28.2 Fair value estimation

The carrying amounts of the Philips Business’s financial assets and liabilities, including trade and other receivables and trade and other payables and accruals, approximate their fair values due to their short term maturities.

The forward exchange contracts used by the Philips Business to manage its foreign currency risk on future cash flows are measured at their fair value at reporting dates. The fair value of the forward exchange contracts have been estimated based on discounted cash flow valuation techniques using directly observable market inputs (level 2).

No events occurred after the reporting dates that would require disclosure in or alternations to the Combined Financial Statements.

III. SUBSEQUENT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(B) NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

1. The amounts are derived from the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet of the Group as at 30 June 2011 and the audited consolidated income statement, the audited consolidated statement of comprehensive income and the audited consolidated statement of cash flows of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2010, as set out in Appendix I to this Circular.

2. The amounts are derived from the audited combined statement of financial position of the Target Group as at 3 July 2011 and the audited combined income statement, the audited combined statement of comprehensive income and the audited combined statement of cash flows of the Target Group for the year ended 31 December 2010 as set out in Appendix II to this Circular, and have been reclassified to conform to the presentation format of the Group.

3. The adjustment represents the elimination of transactions between the Group and the Target Group for the year ended 31 December 2010. There is no elimination of balances between the Group and the Target Group at 30 June 2011 as these balances will not be transferred to JVCo as stipulated in the Sale and Purchase Agreement.

This adjustment has a recurring nature.

– III-6 – APPENDIX III UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

4. The Sale and Purchase Agreement stipulates that the net operating capital as defined in the Sale and Purchase Agreement, excluding intangible assets and license fee payable, that will be transferred to JVCo will not exceed an amount of nil Euro. As part of the Sale and Purchase Agreement, at closing, only property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, inventories, certain receivables and other current assets, license fee payable and certain current and non-current liabilities which are required to be transferred by law (for example, personnel related accruals in certain jurisdictions) will be transferred to JVCo. To accomplish a transfer of net operating capital, excluding intangible assets and license fee payable, for an amount of nil Euro, a payable to Philips will be transferred into the JVCo, resulting in net operating capital acquired with a net value of nil.

5. The assembly sites in Manaus, Brazil, Szekesfehervar, Hungary and Tierra Del Fuego, Argentina are currently shared between the Philips Business and other Philips Consumer Lifestyle activities. As part of the Proposed Transactions, the JVCo will acquire the sites in entirety and enter into lease agreements with members of the Philips Group for the use of part of these sites by the other Philips Consumer Lifestyle activities. Theagreementtoleaseoutthepartofthe assembly site in Argentina for the use of Philips non-TV business is still under discussion with the Philips Group. As such, no rental income for the assembly site in Argentina is reflected in the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial information. This adjustment reflects the net book value of the land and buildings attributable to other Philips Consumer Lifestyle activities to be transferred to the Enlarged Group and the associated rental income for Brazil and Hungary from Philips.

This adjustment has a recurring nature, except for the rental related to Hungary, which will in principle only be for a period of less than one year. The rental income related to and taken into account for the Hungary lease is USD2.6 million per annum.

6. Upon completion of the Acquisition, the identifiable assets and liabilities of the Target Group will be accounted for in the consolidated financial statements of the Enlarged Group at their fair values as required by the acquisition method in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standard 3 (Revised) ‘‘Business Combinations’’. Details of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the Target Group to be accounted for in the consolidated financial statements of the Enlarged Group and the calculation of gain on bargain purchase with respect to 1 January 2010 for the purpose of the unaudited pro forma consolidated income statement, unaudited pro forma consolidated statement

– III-9 – APPENDIX III UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

(a) For the purpose of the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information, the Directors have determined preliminarily the fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the Target Group as at 1 January 2010 and 3 July 2011, after taking reference of valuation reports prepared by independent valuers, Jones Lang LaSalle Sallmanns Limited. The valuation was carried out on a fair value basis in accordance with the International Valuation Standards (‘‘IVS’’)issued by the International Valuation Standards Committee. Fair value is defined in IVS as ‘‘the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date’’.

(b) Pursuant to the Sale and Purchase Agreement, the contingent consideration for the 70% of the JVCo shares now being acquired will be based on 70% of the JVCo’s average audited consolidated EBIT in each financial year commencing from (and including) financial year 2012 to (and including) the Last Year times a multiple of four, provided that, if the above calculation results in a negative number, then the contingent consideration is deemed to be zero. The contingent consideration has been assumed to be USD18 million and recorded as an adjustment to other payables and accruals as if the completion was at 30 June 2011 for the purpose of the unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet and USD11 million as if completion was at 1 January 2010 for the purpose of the unaudited pro forma consolidated income statement, unaudited pro forma statement of comprehensive income and unaudited pro forma statement of cash flows, determined based on a valuation report prepared by an independent valuer, Jones Lang LaSalle Sallmanns Limited. The valuations of the contingent consideration are based upon the historical performance of the Group and the Target Group.

(c) Pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement, Philips will have the right to sell and transfer all of its remaining 30% of the shares in JVCo to the Company (‘‘the Philips Exit Put Option’’). The Philips Exit Put Option will become exercisable after 6 years commencing on the date of the Shareholders Agreement and the consideration will be determined based on the average audited consolidated EBIT in each financial year commencing from (and including) financial year 2012 up to (and including) the Last Year times a multiple of four. Philips will also have a put option upon change of control of TPV, on similar terms. The Directors have determined preliminarily the present value of the redemption amount of the Philips Exit Put Option to be USD6 million and recorded as adjustments to other payables and accruals and equity as if completion was at 30 June 2011 for the purpose of the unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet and USD3 million as if completion was at 1 January 2010 for the purpose of the unaudited

– III-10 – APPENDIX III UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

pro forma consolidated income statement, unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of comprehensive income and unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of cash flows. The valuations of the put option are determined based on a valuation report prepared by an independent valuer, Jones Lang LaSalle Sallmanns Limited and are based upon the historical performance of the Group and the Target Group.

(d) It has been determined that the terms, under which these loans from Philips were granted, were better than market conditions. The benefit from this is estimated to be USD29 million and USD24 million assuming completion occurred on 1 January 2010 and 30 June 2011 respectively.

(e) Intangible assets identified include license rights and in-process research and development projects.

The above adjustments represent the recognition of the fair values of identifiable assets and liabilities of the Target Group, the contingent consideration and the present value of the redemption amount of the Philips Exit Put Option and the resulting gain on bargain purchase as a result of the Acquisition. Since the fair values of the assets and liabilities of the Target Group, the contingent consideration and the present value of the redemption amount of the Philips Exit Put Option as at the date of completion of the Acquisition, and the fair value of the contingent consideration at the date Philips gives notice of its election to receive the contingent consideration and the redemption amount of the Philips Exit Put Option at the date Philips gives notice of its election to exercise such option may be different from their respective fair values and the redemption amount used in the preparation of the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information presented above, the final amounts of the identified net assets (including intangible assets) and the actual gain on bargain purchase arising from the Acquisition, if any, to be recognised in connection with the Acquisition may be different from the estimated amount as presented above and the differences may be significant. The adjustments have no continuing effects on the consolidated income statement and the consolidated statement of cash flows of the Enlarged Group.

For the purpose of this Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information, the Company has ensured the steps taken on the assessment of impairment on property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and goodwill have been properly performed in accordance with Hong Kong Accounting Standard No. 36 ‘‘Impairment of Assets’’ which is consistent with the accounting policy of the Company. On that basis, the Directors concluded that no impairment in the value of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and goodwill is considered necessary.

– III-11 – APPENDIX III UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

7. The adjustment represents the additional depreciation of property, plant and equipment, additional amortisation of intangible assets and the unwinding of interests in relation to license fee payable, as a consequence of the recognition of fair value adjustment of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and license fee payable in Note 6 above over the remaining useful life of the respective property, plant and equipment and intangible assets and the term of the license fee payable.

This adjustment will have a recurring nature.

8. The adjustment represents the recognition of direct expenses of the Transaction.

This is a non-recurring adjustment.

9. The Sale and Purchase Agreement stipulates that Philips and TPV will provide a Shareholder Loan of EUR170 million (equivalent to approximately USD247 million1) in line with their respective shareholdings. The Philips share of this loan will be EUR51 million (equivalent to approximately USD74 million1).

Furthermore, at closing Philips and TPV will make an equity contribution of EUR100 million (equivalent to approximately USD145 million1)also based on their respective shareholdings. Philips will contribute EUR30 million (equivalent to approximately USD43 million1)ofthis.

Finally, Philips will provide a Bridge Facility for an amount of EUR100 million (equivalent to approximately USD145 million1)foraperiodof9 months after closing after which any replacing loans will be provided by the Shareholders in line with their relative shareholdings. It is assumed that the Bridge Facility will be fully drawn.

The total Shareholder Loan and Bridge Facility provided by Philips of USD219 million together with the equity contribution from Philips of USD43 million give a total cash inflow of USD262 million. The equity contribution from Philips of USD43 million is adjusted to non-controlling interests.

It has been determined that the terms, under which these loans were granted, were better than market conditions. Therefore, the fair value of the loan balance payable as at 30 June 2011 was USD195 million, which reflects the USD24 million benefit compared to loans of the same principal amount at an effective interest rate based on applicable market rates.

– III-12 – APPENDIX III UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

10. Philips has also agreed to provide a loan to TPV for an amount of EUR100 million (equivalent to approximately USD145 million1) (the ‘‘TPV Loan’’) for the purpose of funding TPV’s obligations under the Shareholder Loan.

11. This adjustment reflects the estimated interest expense in relation to the Shareholder Loan and the Bridge Facility described under Note 9.

This adjustment has a recurring nature until full repayment of the Shareholder Loan and the Bridge Facility.

12. This adjustment reflects the estimated interest expense in relation to the TPV loan referred to under Note 10.

This adjustment has a recurring nature until full repayment of the TPV Loan.

13. Upon closing, Philips will pay EUR135 million (equivalent to approximately USD196 million1)incashasanadvancepaymentfor Philips brand promotion activities to be carried out by JVCo on behalf of Philips.

14. This adjustment reflects the financial impact on the unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet, the unaudited pro forma consolidated income statement and the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of comprehensive income, if Philips exercised the Philips Exit Put Option on the remaining 30% equity interest in JVCo and the Company would have obtained a 100% equity interest in JVCo on 30 June 2011 and 1 January 2010 respectively, assuming no additional payment shall be made by TPV to Philips as the audited consolidated EBIT for the six months ended 30 June 2011 and for the year ended 31 December 2009 are negative.

For the purpose of this pro forma adjustment, it is assumed that the non- controlling interests arising from the equity contribution from Philips of USD43 million and the share of net identifiable assets and liabilities of USD11 million for the purpose of the unaudited pro forma consolidated income statement, unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of comprehensive income and unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of cash flows and USD8 million for the purpose of the unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet, respectively, at completion shall be adjusted to zero.

15. Pursuant to the Sale and Purchase Agreement the payable to Philips amounted to USD294 million (see Note 6(ii)) of which USD114 million represents payment for property, plant and equipment. The difference of USD180 million represents payment for working capital which has no effect to the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of cash flows.

– III-13 – APPENDIX III UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

16. Other than the above adjustments, no adjustments have been made to reflect any trading results or other transactions of the Group and the Target Group entered into subsequent to 30 June 2011 and 3 July 2011, respectively.

17. Currently the Philips Business uses infrastructure and corporate services from Philips, such as information technology, human resources, legal and financial administrative services. In the combined financial statements of the Target Group as set out in Appendix II, the allocations of these expenses from Philips were made on a specifically identifiable basis or using relative percentages, as compared to Philips’ other businesses, of the Philips Business’ net sales, headcount, floor area usage or other reasonable methods. TPV and Philips have agreed in the transitional services agreement that Philips will provide temporary support to JVCo on a number of areas for a transitional phase, when JVCo is setting up its organization. The support includes but is not limited to, innovation and design, finance, human resources, distribution,sales,marketing, warehousing, purchasing, consumer care, legal and real estate. The charges for such services have been agreed not to exceed USD34 million in 2012, which is a lower amount than what has historically been recharged by Philips to the TV business, as can be read in Note 27 of the financial informationontheTargetGroupassetoutinAppendixII.Theamountof USD34 million has been negotiated on an arm’s length basis between the parties and is considered a market based pricing.

Given the substantial changes in operations upon the completion of the Acquisition and the set up of the JVCo, and the fact that the above services agreement is transitory in nature, the financial effects of the changes in cost structure before and after completion of the Acquisition have not been reflected in the unaudited pro forma consolidated income statement and the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of comprehensive income. The actual amount of service charges payable to Philips under the transitional services agreement may be different from the amounts included in the unaudited pro forma consolidated income statement and the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of comprehensive income as presented above and the differences may be significant.

1 Amounts denominated in EUR have been translated into USD at an exchange rate of EUR1.00=USD1.45 as at 30 June 2011 and at exchange rate of EUR1.00=USD1.33 for the year ended 31 December 2010.

3. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE RESULTS OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

Set out below is the management discussion and analysis of the Enlarged Group for the three years ended 31 December 2008, 2009 and 2010; the six months ended 30 June 2011 (in respect of the Group); and for the period from 1 January 2011 to 3 July 2011 (in respect of the Philips Business).

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2008

In respect of the Group

Industry review

The ongoing financial turbulence has inevitably led to a slowdown across the board in consumer and corporate spending, lowering the growth rate of the world economy from 3.7% to 2.5% in 2008.

On a yearly basis, global LCD monitor shipment recorded a 2.8% increase in 2008 to 167.0 million units. However, most of the growth was achieved in the first half of the year. Demand for LCD monitors withered in tandem with the economy in the latter half of 2008. In fact, it was the first time in history that the LCD monitor shipment in the second half of a year declined on a year-on-year basis. It was also one of the rare instances that second half shipment was lower than that of the first half and fourth quarter shipment was lower than that of the third quarter. In this tough operating environment, the PC monitor sector saw further consolidation on the supply side. The top five manufacturers at the end of 2008 commanded in aggregate 73.8% of the market versus 68.3% a year ago.

Global LCD TV shipment, on the other hand, amounted to 105.0 million units as compared with 79.0 million units recorded in the previous year, in spite of the recessionary economy. A few trends were discernible. Firstly, the competitive landscape had become more consolidated with the top three brands commanding an aggregate 41.8% share of the market, up from 38.9% a year ago. Secondly, the average size of LCD TV sold, contrary to popular perception, grew only gently, indicating that consumers were extremely price sensitive in their purchases. Thirdly, first-tier TV brands were increasingly receptive to the idea of outsourcing, particularly for their commoditized product segmental requirements, due to price

– IV-2 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

pressure. Furthermore, the digitalization of broadcasting signal in the US starting this year and the ban of the plasma TV in Europe later on would provide fresh impetus to the demand.

On the price front, the dismal demand for LCD products in the latter half of 2008 had driven down prices of LCD panels to below cash costs, at which levels LCD panel makers were forced to shut down capacities in order to minimize losses. It is a well-knownfactthatsomeoftheLCDpanel makers were loading at no more than 50% of their capacities at the beginning of this year. Since then, demand has improved as distributors and retailers began to replenish stocks in view of the low level of inventory in the pipeline. As a result, prices of LCD panels inched up gradually in the first quarter of 2009.

Business Review

The Group shipped a total of 54.2 million units of displays in 2008, posting a 14.8% year-on-year growth. The PC monitor business segment shipped 47.7 million units (2007: 43.1 million units) of products and contributed 75.8% (2007: 78.9%) of the Group’s consolidated revenue. The LCD TV business segment saw its shipment surged 67.7% to 6.0 million units (2007: 3.6 million units) and now contributed 21.3% (2007: 18.1%) of the consolidated revenue.

In terms of geographical market segment, because of the growing volume of LCD TV shipped for its customers to that market, North America has once again become the largest end market of the Group. Revenue generated there of US$2.5 billion (2007: US$2.3 billion) accounted for 27.4% of the Group’s consolidated revenue in 2008, up from 26.9% in the proceeding year. Both PRC and Europe trailed closely behind, matching stride for stride in terms of sales growth, delivering 25.8% (2007: 27.5%) and 24.5% (2007: 23.2%) respectively of the consolidated revenue. The Group’s presence in the emerging markets continued to grow. In 2008, sales booked outside of the top three markets amounted to US$2.1 billion (2007: US$1.9 billion) and represented 22.3% (2007: 22.4%) of the Group’sconsolidatedrevenue.Asthe penetration rate for LCD products in the developed world gradually saturates, markets like Brazil, India and Russia will continue to grow providing the Group with good business potentiality, especially for its branded business.

The drop in average selling prices (‘‘ASPs’’) for both PC monitor and LCD TV, in tandem with the LCD panel prices, was alleviated by the size migration to larger screen size products. For 2008, ASPs were US$146.9 (2007: US$155.0) and US$327.4 (2007: US$427.1) respectively for PC monitor and LCD TV. As the economy faltered and product demand dwindled during the traditional peak season last year, the Group met increasing price competition and reacted promptly by cutting prices to clear excess inventory. As a result, the Group booked its lowest ever gross profit margin of 3.4% in fourth quarter 2008, substantially below that of the 4.5%, 4.6% and 5.9% respectively recorded in the first three quarters of the year. The higher

– IV-3 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

overhead expenses which were brought about by the expanded operation together with the heavy translation losses incurred in a volatile currency market weighed on the net margin which finished the year at 1.1%, halved the 2.2% booked a year ago.

The Group had withdrawn from the digital photo frame business segment due to changes in consumer discretionary spending pattern and had written off the small original investment on manufacturing and ancillary equipment.

Aspartofitseffortstostreamlinetheoperation,theGrouphastakenstepsto right-size its workforce, resulting in a headcount reduction of 3,468 direct and indirect workers. Moreover, some of the R&D positions will be systematically re- deployed from Taiwan to China to save on cost. As a result of this restructuring, there was a one-time charge of US$2.8 million to the 2008 consolidated income statement.

R&D

During the year, the Group launched 671 new models for monitors and 323 new models for TVs. A total of 2,049 engineers in R&D were hired to maintain the pace of innovation and product development.

The Group has adopted a two-pronged design strategy, aimed at both reductions in costs as well as simplification of manufacturing process. The new design circuitry reduces, on average, 6 to 7% parts count for PC monitor and 8 to 9% parts count for LCD TV while enhancing the stability of high-definition multimedia interface and universal serial bus (‘‘USB’’) functions as compared to two years ago. At the same time, the simplified new design circuitry streamlines production process and reduces failure rate.

In the PC monitor business segment, the Group plans to enrich its product portfolio, offering screen sizes up to 46-inch with additional functions such as TV tuner and packaged in ultra-slim shape. In a year’s time, its product line-up will be lengthened up to 65-inch with new functions like touch-screen, USB ports and wireless transmission.

As for LCD TV, in 2009-10, the Group will expand the product line to offer screen sizes up to 55-inch and products accepting all broadcasting systems across the continents. Meanwhile, its R&D team will focus on enhancing the response rate of products in order to achieve better picture quality and introduce some environmental friendly models that will save on energy.

Production

The Group’s Poland factory commenced trial production in the second quarter of 2008 and mass production in the third quarter with satisfactory results. Last year, the Group shipped 1.5 million units of display products from this site and this year, it has a target shipment of 4.1 million units. The Group will spend another US$20 million on equipment and automation to further enhance the efficiency at the plant.

As part of the redeployment plan, the Group’s Ningbo plant has ceased production in the first quarter of 2009, incurring a one-time charge of US$2.6 million.

As at 31 December 2008, the Group had annual production capacities of 69.5 million units and 12.2 million units for PC monitor and LCD TV respectively.

Liquidity, financial resources and capital structure

The Group continued to finance its operations from internal cash flows and banking facilities. As at 31 December 2008, the Group’s cash and cash equivalents were at US$171.1 million (2007: US$135.1 million). As at 31 December 2008, the Group’s available and undrawn bank loan and trade finance facilities were US$2.8 billion (2007: US$2.5 billion).

In view of the tight credit market, the Group had used part of its internally generated operating cash flows to pay down debts to protect itself from a credit squeeze. All outstanding bank debts were borrowed on floating-rate basis. The maturity profile of outstanding bank debts as at 31 December 2008 was as follows:

Duration 2008 2007 US$’000 US$’000

Within one year 397,240 540,189 In the second year — 45,000

In line with the Group’s policy to curtail capacity expansion, total capex spending for 2009 was cut back from 2008’s US$162.2 million to between US$70 million and 100 million.

Compared to 2007, the Group’s inventory turnover improved by 11.4 days to 36.6 days while trade receivables turnover shortened from 57.9 days to 57.0 days. Trade payables turnover was 49.0 days while it was 62.6 days for the year ended 31 December 2007.

The Group’s gearing ratio, representing the ratio of total bank debts to total assets, was at 18.0% as compared to 20.5% in 2007. Current ratio was 145.1% versus 135.6% last year.

– IV-5 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

Workforce

As at 31 December 2008, the Group employed around 28,500 (2007: 27,320) people worldwide whose total emoluments amounted to US$216 million. The remuneration terms of these employees were consistent with industry practice in the respective locations where the Group operates.

The Group has periodically provided training to its employees to encourage continuous learning and self-development, thus ensuring the competitiveness of the Group in the ever changing market environment.

Foreign exchange risk

The Group operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures, primarily with respect to Renminbi and Brazilian Real. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions, recognized assets and liabilities and net investments in foreign operations. Moreover, the conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies is subject to the rules and regulations of exchange control promulgated by the PRC government. The Group aims to reduce its currency exposures against Renminbi by using foreign exchange forward contracts. In view of the volatile financial market, the Group has set out strict guidelines, against any speculative trades in derivative products.

As at 31 December 2008, the Group had the following outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts in order to mitigate the Group’s exposure in foreign currencies from its operations:

2008 2007 US$’000 US$’000

Business review

Analysis of financial performance

The year 2008 was characterised by the steep downturn in the second half of the year, with its sharp decline in consumer confidence and consumer spending. This impacted the performance of the Philips Business. The Philips Business realised revenues of US$5,224 million at a sales volume of 8,604 thousand pieces.

Gross profit as percentage of revenues was 13.2% for 2008. As part of the integration of the Consumer Electronics and Domestic Appliances businesses of Philips, a number of specific value-creating initiatives have been put in place. These initiatives were focused on further optimisation of the business portfolio towards growth and higher-margin realisation. Furthermore, there was focus on increased effectiveness and investment in advertising and promotion, especially in geographic areas where the highest return is expected (in particular emerging markets).

Rigorous cost and organizational discipline, measured against internal and external benchmarks, were also part of the aforementioned value-creating initiatives and aimed at reducing the operational cost level which amounted to US$1,146 million in 2008.

Analysis of the financial position

The majority of the Philips Business’ non-current assets comprises property, plant and equipment. At 31 December 2008 property, plant and equipment still included the production plant at Dreux which was closed down in subsequent years and migrated to other production sites.

In general, current assets mainly relate to trade and other receivables and inventories. The Philips Business operated a negative net working capital as the current assets were more than offset by the trade payables and other payables and accruals carried on the balance sheet.

Cash flow analysis

In 2008 the negative cash flow from operating activities is partly compensated by positive cash flows from working capital management, especially in relation to inventory and trade receivables reductions that have been realised. Increased restructuring provisions (partly offset by utilisation of warranty provisions) drive the 2008 US$10 million positive effect on cash flows from provisions. These were the main drivers for the negative cash flow from operating activities of US$131 million generated in 2008.

– IV-7 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

Combined with investments of respectively US$79 million and US$48 million in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, this leads to a negative cash flow of US$254 million for 2008, which was financed by additional funding from the Philips Group.

Liquidity, capital structure and financial resources

Historically the business was mainly financed with financial support from the Philips Group. As at 31 December 2008, the Philips Business had no own bank balances and cash.

The Philips Group (including the Philips Business) utilises a central approach to cash management and the financing of its operations. Cash deposits of the Philips Group (including the Philips Business) are pooled and transferred to a Central Treasury function on a daily basis. As the Philips Business did not operate or exist as a separate legal entity during the period of the combined financial statements, no amounts for cash, cash equivalents and debt have been reflected within the combined financial statements. All balances with other Philips reporting units not reported as intercompany current trading accounts are presented as owners’ net investment in the carve out financial statements. The Philips Group’snetinvestment amounted to a deficit of US$198 million at 31 December 2008.

Capital commitments

The Philips Business did not have any significant capital commitments as at 31 December 2008.

Contingent liabilities

Please refer to note 25 to the accountant’s report on the Philips Business as set out in appendix II to this circular for further details on contingent liabilities.

Significant investments, material acquisition and disposals

The Philips Business did not have any significant investments, material acquisition or disposals as at 31 December 2008.

Employment and remuneration policy

Remuneration of the staff mainly comprised contractual monthly salary, pension contributions and bonus entitlements based on their contribution to the Philips Business. The number of full-time employees employed by the Philips Business was approximately 4,400 worldwide whose total emoluments amounted to US$405 million as at 31 December 2008.

– IV-8 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

Charges

As at 31 December 2008, the Philips Business did not have any charges on its assets.

Foreign exchange risk management

The functional currency of the majority of the reporting units within the Philips Business is EUR unless the primary economic environment requires the use of other currencies. The Philips Business is exposed to foreign currency exchange fluctuation risk as part of its businesses carried out in local currencies in the countries it operates (mainly R$, Russian Roubles and US$). In the financial periods analyzed, the Philips Business entered into foreign currency forward exchange contracts as economic hedges of exchange rate fluctuations.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2009

In respect of the Group

Industry review

Business activities around the world gradually recovered in 2009 from the trough created by the financial tsunami during the second half of the previous year. In spite of that, it was still a challenging time for businesses on every continent. The World Bank estimated that global gross domestic products, excluding that of China and India, contracted by 2.2% during the year, compared with growth of 4.3% in 2008.

In relative terms, LCD system integrators such as the Group fared much better than other component and hardware manufacturers during 2009. Following a lacklustre first quarter, demand for their products — especially LCD TVs — recovered and remained firm for the rest of the year. The increasing flow of orders, together with sporadic shortages of components, kept panel fabs running at full capacity, and panel prices rose steadily through the year, resulting in an average of 10% and 25% increase for TV panels and IT panels respectively, compared to their lowest point during the first quarter.

The turbulent economic conditions led corporations to defer or cut back their IT expenditure. As a result, worldwide shipments of PC monitors amounted to just 164 million units in 2009, approximately 7% fewer than the 176 million shipped in the previous year. It is worth noting that monitors have already become commoditised, which means end users buy them only when they need them, and demand is less affected by seasonality or economic climate. Consequently, there was little seasonal fluctuation in last year’s shipment figures, which remained flattish during the first and second halves.

– IV-9 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

On the other hand, demand for LCD TVs continued to go from strength to strength, with consecutive quarterly growth. The total number of products shipped last year increased dramatically to 145 million units, compared with 105 million in 2008.

China was the key growth driver in the global demand for both monitors and LCD TVs. PC monitor shipments there surged 33.7% year-on-year to 43.4 million units, while its demand for LCD TVs increased by a spectacular 106.4% over the previous year’s figure to 27.6 million units.

In fact, year-on-year demand for LCD TVs increased in every other geographical region as well: by 21.5% to 36.5 million units in North America, by 8.7% to 42.1 million units in Europe, and by 41.4% to 34.2 million units in the rest of the world.

Light-emitting diode (‘‘LED’’)-backlit products became increasingly popular, achieving penetration rates of 1% and 3% in the monitor and TV segments.

Company results

The Group was not impervious to the sluggish economic conditions, which halted the revenue growth the Group had enjoyed in the preceding 13 years. Even so, the Group’s overall financial performance was respectable, and broadly in line with the management’s expectations.

In 2009, the Group posted consolidated revenue of US$8.0 billion, a decrease of 13.1% from previous year’s US$9.2 billion, partly due to the 24.8% and 13.9% declines in average selling prices (ASPs) for the Group’s PC monitors and LCD TVs, respectively. The Group’s gross profit margin improved by 120 basis points to 5.8%, as a result of various cost-saving initiatives the Group implemented during the year.

Despite higher sales and research and development costs, the Group’soperating profit margin, rose by 50 basis points to 2.2%. Net finance costs fell by 81.2% from 2008’s US$48.9 million to US$9.2 million, as the Group aggressively deleveraged in an uncertain economy. Profit attributable to equity holders came in at US$141.2 million, an impressive 45.3% higher than the US$97.2 million the Group reported in 2008. Basic earnings per share were US6.69 cents against US4.74 cents the previous year.

During the year, the PC monitor business segment contributed 63.5% (2008: 75.8%)oftheGroup’s consolidated revenue, while the contribution from LCD TV business segment continued to grow, accounting for 33.4% (2008: 21.3%) of the Group’s total sales.

Astheengineoftheworld’s economic growth, China accounted for 29.6% (2008: 25.8%) of the Group’s total revenue. Because of the Group’s new strategic presence in Poland, the Group’s sales to Europe gained traction, and this region

– IV-10 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

surpassed North America to contribute 28.6% (2008: 24.5%) of the Group’srevenue. North America and the rest of world accounted for 24.2% (2008: 27.4%) and 17.6% (2008: 22.3%) of the Group’s revenue, respectively.

Business review

PC monitors

According to DisplaySearch, the total global demand for PC monitors was 164.1 million units in 2009, which was 6.5% lower than in the previous year. While there was good growth in some emerging economies, such as China, India and Brazil, corporate users in developed markets like the US and Europe still felt uncertain about their business prospects, and most of them resorted to cutting costs by scaling back on their IT investments.

The Group’s total PC monitor shipments dipped by 3.3% to 46.2 million units in 2009, lowering their contribution to the Group’s revenue by 27.3% to US$5.1 billion (2008: US$7.0 billion). The Group’s ASP per unit for the year was US$110.5 (2008: US$146.9), reflecting lower component costs. On a quarterly sequential basis, the Group’s ASP remained relatively stable throughout the year, at US$102.3 during the first quarter, US$104.6 in the second quarter, US$117.8 in the third quarter and US$114.7 in the fourth quarter. This suggests the operating environment has become friendlier for everyone along the supply chain. Moreover, the migration to larger screen displays helped to mitigate the pressure of price erosion.

Atthesametime,theGroup’s gross profit margin recovered to 6.1% (2008: 4.8%), however, gross profit dollar per unit slipped to US$6.7 (2008: US$7.1) due to lower ASP. Nevertheless, the Group’s operating margin improved by 30 basis points to 2.0% (2008: 1.7%) as the Group continued to streamline its production flow and enhanced efficiency. At the end of 2009, the Group had maintained its leading position in this quickly consolidating segment, with a market share of approximately 28.3% in terms of shipment volume.

In June 2009, the Group took a step forward in extending its reach to the end markets by entering into a five-year trademark licensing agreement with Philips. Pursuant to this, the Group has assumed responsibility for the design, sourcing, manufacturing, distribution, marketing and sales of Philips brand name monitors worldwide.

LCD TVs

During the year under review, the Group’sLCDTVshipmentssurgedby58.5% to 9.5 million units (2008: 6.0 million units). Its contribution to the Group’s consolidated revenue consequently rose from 21.3% to 33.4%.

– IV-11 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

The strong growth in the Group’s LCD TV shipments was mainly attributable to better-than-expected demand in developed markets like Europe and the US, which accounted for 41.5% and 38.3% of the Group’s total shipments, respectively. At the same time, China’s strong economic growth fuelled the robust demand there, and the Group was able to benefit from the rural subsidy programme by increasing sales of the Group’sown-brandproducts.

In tandem with the panel prices, the ASP of the Group’sLCDTVsfellby13.9% to US$281.9 last year (2008: US$327.4). The proportion of LCD TVs with screen sizes of 32-inch or more that the Group shipped increased from 32.5% in 2008 to 41.7% in 2009. As a result, the weighted average screen size of the units the Group sold rose from 25.9 inches to 27.8 inches. The Group’s gross profit margin improved by 130 basispointsto5.7%(2008:4.4%).

The volume of the Group’s LCD TV sales in 2009 gave it a global market share of 6.6%, placing the Group in the fourth position among global LCD TV manufacturers. In fact, the Group was the only ODM amongst the top five.

R&D

One major achievement of the Group’sR&Deffortsin2009wasthelaunchof All-in-One PC (‘‘AIO PC’’) in May 2009. By the end of the year, the Group had shipped 70,000 units of this new product to the Group’scustomers.

The Group also scored a breakthrough in the ongoing product development programme by shipping its first consignment of LED-backlit monitors during the fourth quarter of 2009. Furthermore, the Group expanded its product line to include a full range of display sizes, from 15-inch to 65-inch.

In addition, the Group invested resources in the development of 3D and touch- screen displays. The Group delivered a small quantity of touch-screen AIOs in 2009.

Production

The Group continued to invest in its manufacturing capacity to prepare for future growth and also strengthen its status in the industry, guarantee more timely delivery to various parts of the world, and reduce its logistical costs.

The Group’s capital expenditure in 2009 totalled US$118.4 million. One of the key investment areas was its plant at Gorzow, Poland, the first the Group owned in Europe, which began mass production during the second half of 2008. It is fully operational, with an annual capacity of 4.5 million units of LCD TVs and multi- functional monitors. The plant’s location gives the Group a distinct advantage in Europe, and it was the main driver of the remarkable growth in the Group’sLCDTV sales there during 2009.

– IV-12 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

As at 30 March 2010, the Group had two factories in Brazil to support this fast- growing market. Between them, the two processed 1.9 million PC monitors and 300,000 LCD TVs in 2009. In July 2009, the Group completed the purchase of another factory, in Mexico, where the Group planned to have an initial capacity of 700,000 units a year to serve the large-screen LCD TV requirements of North and South America.

In addition, the Group took over a new 450,000 square metre plant in Xiamen, PRC, in August 2009. Located next to a deep-water port and surrounded by a cluster of key suppliers, this plant will also be the Group’s most advanced facility, with the ability to undertake backward integrated operations in LCD module assembly, backlights and plastic injection through various joint-venture arrangements.

Finally, the Group closed its Ningbo plant in 2009, due to the strategic reallocation of its manufacturing resources.

In line with the Group’s backward integration strategy, it increased its in-house production of LCD modules to 17.8 million units, as well as 5.0 million units of backlight units during 2009.

As of December 31, 2009, the Group had an annual global production capacity of 75.2 million units PC monitors and 15.8 million units of LCD TVs.

Joint ventures

Apart from expanding the Group’s manufacturing footprint, the Group continued to acquire know-how and technologies, in order to strengthen its manufacturing capability in the competitive landscape in which it operates. One of the Group’s key strategies for achieving this is by entering into strategic alliances and joint ventures.

To this end, the Group announced the formation of two joint ventures with one of the world’s foremost panel suppliers, LGD in November 2009. One of these will focus on LCD TVs, and the other on PC monitors. These two joint ventures will be located in the Group’s Xiamen and Fuqing plants, and they will commence operations in April 2010. This partnership with LGD will ensure that the two joint ventures have captive and stable panel supplies to satisfy the needs of the Group’s customers at all times.

In addition, the Group joined Inventec Corporation, a leading notebook manufacturer, in exploring the market potential of AIO PCs, thereby allowing the Grouptoleverageoneachother’s capabilities and know-how in the PC and display areas, and shortening the learning curve required to bring competitive products to the market.

Workforce

As at 31 December 2009, the Group employed 29,479 people worldwide whose total emoluments amounted to US$244 million. All of the Group’semployeeswere remunerated in accordance with industry practice in the locations where they worked.

The Group provides regular training to its staff members and encourages them to engage in lifelong learning and self-development, thus ensuring the Group’s competitiveness in an ever-changing market environment.

Mindful of the tremendous value of skilled and experienced workers, and the increasingly tight labour market in China, the Group introduced enhanced welfare benefits and compensation schemes to attract and retain these valuable assets to the Group’s business.

Liquidity, financial resources and capital structure

As at 31 December 2009, the Group’s cash and bank balances totalled US$270.4 million, compared to US$171.1 million 12 months earlier. Credit facilities granted by banks amounted to US$4.3 billion (31 December 2008: US$4.5 billion), of which US$0.74 billion were utilized (31 December 2008: US$1.06 billion).

The Group’s operations generated a positive operating cash flow of over US$600 million in 2009. Some of this cash was used to pay down the Group’sdebts, in order to increase its staying power in an uncertain economy. All of the Group’s outstanding bank debts were borrowed on a floating-rate basis.

The maturity profile of outstanding bank debts as of 31 December 2009 was as follows:

Foreign exchange risk

The Group operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures, primarily with respect to Renminbi, Japanese Yen, Euros, Brazilian Real, Indian Rupee and Mexican Peso. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transaction, recognized assets and liabilities and net investments in foreign operations. Moreover, the conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies is subject to the rules and regulations for exchange control promulgated by the PRC government. The Group aims to reduce its currency exposures against Renminbi by using foreign exchange forward contracts. In view of the volatile financial market, the Group has set out strict guidelines, against any speculative trades in derivative products.

The total notional principal amounts of the outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts as at 31 December 2009 were as follow:

Business review

Analysis of financial performance

The year 2009 was characterised by introduction of experience television including the 2009 Aurea and Ambilight range and the cinema 21: 9 model, the world’s first cinema proportioned LCD television. Television has evolved from a business based on scale to one driven by differentiation, especially in its channel/market mix. Traditional world-class competencies in areas like picture quality and technical performance have been maintained, while additional focus has been placed on differentiated design and experiences.

– IV-15 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

Following the global recession caused by the financial crisis, in 2009 revenues decreased by 24% (US$1,273 million) due to a world-wide sales decline in consumer TV segment mainly incurred in Brazil, Russia, the United Kingdom and France.

Sales volumes decreased by 11% to 7,680 thousand pieces. The resulting gross profit decline is more than offset by an increase in gross profit as percentage of revenues (from 13.2% to 18.7%) leading to the US$53 million 2009 growth in gross profit. The growth in gross profit as percentage of revenues is predominantly due to portfolio changes and mix management (higher sales of televisions with Ambilight), as well as the industrial back-end consolidation (LGD/Sharp) reaping purchase price benefits.

Management continuously focused on cost reduction opportunities. In 2008, as part of the integration of the Consumer Electronics and Domestic Appliances businesses of Philips, the Earn-to-Invest (‘‘E2I’’) continuous business transformation program was started. In 2009, the cost saving effects of this integration fully materialised, which was the main driver behind the US$218 million (19%) decline in operating expenses.

Reductions in selling expenses were mainly realised by optimising fixed selling expenses (decrease by US$122 million) and advertising and promotion expenses (decrease by US$31 million). Lower general and administrative expenses were the result of lower IT costs (decrease by US$11 million), general reduction in headcount (decrease by US$6 million) and various other cost reductions (decrease by US$23 million). Rationalisation of research and development projects as well as timing of new product introductions and launches resulted in reduced research and development expenses by US$23 million.

Other income and expense reflects cost charges (of costs incurred as included in other line items) to countries not in the perimeter of the Philips Business. Under a global services agreement, operating units within Philips delivering services to other units, recharge these costs on an arm’s length basis. Within the Philips Business, the headquarters in the Netherlands and the R&D locations mainly deliver services to other units within the Philips Business. In 2008, the Philips Business delivered these services to Philips TV activities in the US and the PRC. During 2009, the activities in the US were licensed out to a third party. The activities in the PRC were licensed out to the Company in 2010. After the licensing out, no costs were incurred or recharged to these reporting units.

In 2009 the loss from operations decreased by US$100 million from US$311 million in 2008 to US$211 million in 2009. This is largely explained by a reduction in operating expenses of US$218 million in combination with the growth in gross profit of US$53 million offset by lower cost recharges to units not included in the perimeter of the joint venture (decrease by US$49 million) and results on foreign exchange forward contracts (decrease by US$122 million).

– IV-16 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

The hospitality TV segment comprises 4% of total sales generated by the Philips Business and remained stable in 2008 and 2009. During 2009 hospitality TV segment’s operating profit before tax decreased from US$15 million positive towards US$10 million negative mainly due to a slowdown in the leisure industry resulting from the global recession. The consumer TV segment more than offsets this resulting in the overall reduction in loss before tax from US$311 million in 2008 towards US$212 million in 2009.

Development in financial position

The decline in non-current assets between 31 December 2008 and 31 December 2009 of US$28 million is mainly driven by lower investments in product development included in intangible assets (decrease by US$13 million) and the decrease in property, plant and equipment (decrease by US$18 million) following the rationalisation of capital expenditure projects and production capacity. As part of the rationalisation of production capacity, a production plant in France (Dreux) was closed and related production was migrated to the plant in Szekesfehervar in Hungary.

In reaction to the sales decline, as wellasduetoshortageinpanelsupply, inventories were decreased in 2009 accordingly (by US$161 million). This was also driven by a SKU (‘‘Stock Keeping Unit’’) reduction program, which reduced the number of SKUs of the Philips Business by 34% compared to 2008.

The decrease in inventories was the main driver for the US$185 million decline in current assets between 31 December 2008 and 31 December 2009.

Non-current liabilities largely comprise the long-term portion of provisions which increased by US$45 million in 2009 to US$116 million mainly due to growth in restructuring and warranty provisions.

Current liabilities decreased by US$18 million in 2009 mainly due to lower other payables and accruals (decreased US$49 million), trade payables (decreased US$14 million) offset by increased warranty provisions (increased US$26 million). The reduction in other payables and accruals relate to the decrease in sales mainly led to lower materials related accruals. Growth in short term provisions mainly relates to restructuring provisions which increased in relation to the closure of the France Dreux production location. Warranty provisions increased due to a product failure as a result of faulty components delivered to the Philips Business by a supplier.

Cash flow analysis

In both 2008 and 2009 the negative cash flow from operating activities is largely compensated by positive cash flows from working capital management, especially in relation to inventory reductions that have been realised. Included in the negative operating results are charges for restructuring and product warranty costs. These chargesresultedinanincreaseinprovisionswithoutresultinginactualcash

– IV-17 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

outflows. This is offset by a positive non-cash item on the line item changes to provisions. These are the main drivers for the US$212 million improvement in the cash flow from operating activities in 2009 to US$81 million positive.

The increase in the cash flow from operating activities in 2009 is further increased on net fund flow level by the US$44 million reductions in capital expenditure.

Liquidity, capital structure and financial resources

Historically the business was mainly financed with financial support from the Philips Group. As at 31 December 2009, the Philips Business had no own bank balances and cash.

The Philips Group (including the Philips Business) utilises a central approach to cash management and the financing of its operations. Cash deposits of the Philips Group (including the Philips Business) are pooled and transferred to a Central Treasury function on a daily basis. As the Philips Business did not operate or exist as a separate legal entity, during the period of the combined financial statements, no amounts for cash, cash equivalents and debt have been reflected within the combined financial statements. All balances with other Philips reporting units not reported as intercompany current trading accounts are presented as the Philips Group’s net investment in the carve out financial statements. The Philips Group’s net investment amounted to a deficit of US$439 million at 31 December 2009.

Capital commitments

The Philips Business did not have any significant capital commitments as at 31 December 2009.

Contingent liabilities

Please refer to note 25 to the accountant’s report on the Philips Business as set out in appendix II to this circular for further details on contingent liabilities.

Significant investments, material acquisition and disposals

The Philips Business did not have any significant investments, material acquisition or disposals as at 31 December 2009.

Employment and remuneration policy

Remuneration of the staff mainly comprised contractual monthly salary, pension contributions and bonus entitlements based on their contribution to the Philips Business. The number of full-time employees employed by the Philips Business was approximately 3,800 worldwide whose total emoluments amounted to US$360 million as at 31 December 2009.

– IV-18 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

Charges

As at 31 December 2009, the Philips Business did not have any charges on its assets.

Foreign exchange risk management

The functional currency of the majority of the reporting units within the Philips Business is EUR unless the primary economic environment requires the use of other currencies. The Philips Business is exposed to foreign currency exchange fluctuation risk as part of its business carried out in local currencies in the countries it operates (mainly R$, Russian Roubles and US$). In the financial periods analyzed the Philips Business entered into foreign currency forward exchange contracts as economic hedges of exchange rate fluctuations.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2010

In respect of the Group

Industry review

Most of the world’s economies entered 2010 in growth mode. However, the pace slowed from the second quarter onwards, as the stimulus packages governments had launched in response to the recession lost their momentum, leading to weaker consumer sentiment. The economic slowdown was exacerbated by the eruption of the sovereign debt crisis in Europe, which made it necessary for several troubled European Union states to receive large financial rescue packages.

Companies in the LCD industry, including the Group, got off to a good start last year, with strong demand for their products — especially in China — during the first quarter. Despite the dark clouds gathering on the economic horizon, sales remained firm in the second quarter too, as PC and TV brands started building up stocks in readiness for the peak season in the second half. Product prices stayed relatively stable throughout the first six months of 2010.

But lackluster sell-through numbers in June, increasing concerns about the economic outlook, and the build up of excess inventory along the supply chain began to affect monitor and TV panel prices, both of which plummeted in the third quarter.

However, monitor panel prices quickly stabilized after they reached cash-cost level in October and panel fabs drastically cut back on their outputs. On the other hand, TV panel prices continued to decline during the fourth quarter, albeit at a gentler gradient, since they were still selling at a premium to their cash cost. The prices of both product categories ended the year approximately 20 to 30% lower than they had been at the beginning.

– IV-19 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

On a brighter note, the increasing popularity of LED-backlit display products had a positive effect on the industry. Although these products are relatively more expensive, they are also slim, fashionable, and offer brighter and sharper pictures, as well as greater color contrast and lower power consumption. These features helped to create demand for them during 2010, boosting their penetration rates to around 10% in the PC monitor and 20% in the LCD TV segments.

Against the backdrop of a volatile global economy, worldwide shipments of PC monitors amounted to 172.3 million units for the year, a 5.1% increase on the 164 million units shipped in 2009. Demand for LCD TVs rose by 31.7%, up from 145.4 million units to 191.5 million units. Much of the growth came from China, Japan and Brazil, while demand in all the developed markets except Japan was impacted by the slowing global economy.

Company results

The Group posted consolidated revenue of US$11.6 billion for the year 2010, an increase of 44.8% on the previous year’s US$8.0 billion. Profit attributable to equity holders amounted to US$169.3 million, which was 19.9% higher than the US$141.2 million reported in 2009. Basic earnings per share were US7.37 cents, against US6.69 cents the previous year. The gross profit (‘‘GP’’) margin dipped 40 basis points to 5.4% because of the difficult operating environment, particularly for the LCD TV business segment.

During the year, the PC monitor business segment contributed 54.1% (2009: 63.5%)oftheGroup’s consolidated revenue, whereas the LCD TV business segment accounted for 34.8% (2009: 33.4%) of total sales.

Europe and China each accounted for approximately one-third of the Group’s total revenue, contributing 31.4% and 30.8% respectively (2009: 28.6 and 29.6%). North America and the rest of world accounted for 18.8% and 19% of the Group’s revenue, respectively (2009: 24.2% and 17.6%).

Business review

PC monitor

While some businesses around the world did finally replace their obsolete PCs and monitors during 2010, the uncertain economic conditions that prevailed in many regions deterred a lot of others from following suit. The same uncertainty dampened consumer demand, which basically stayed flat throughout the year. However, recent surveys indicate the long-overdue equipment replacement cycle will continue in 2011. This would be a welcome trend, because it would boost demand for the Group’s products.

– IV-20 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

The Group shipped a total of 56.5 million monitor units worldwide in 2010, a year-on-year increase of 22.3% on the figure of 46.2 million for the previous year. This gave the Group a global market share of 32.8% (2009: 28.3%). Moreover, the 25.1 million units the Group shipped in China gave it a particularly strong position in that market, where the Group had a share of approximately 50%.

Meanwhile, the GP per unit held firm at US$7.3 (2009: US$6.7), thanks to enhanced efficiency and the relatively stable competitive landscape. Due to changes in the Group’s product mix, the average selling price (ASP) of the Group’sproducts also rose slightly to US$111.6 (2009: US$110.5), despite the backdrop of a general decline in prices in the industry.

LCD TV

There were a total of 191.5 million LCD TV units shipped worldwide during 2010, a figure that was slightly higher than the industry’s expectations. Emerging markets like China and Brazil were the key growth drivers, although the Japanese government’snew‘‘eco-points’’ system to promote green products and stimulate consumption resulted in the shipment of 22.6 million LCD TV units to that country — ahugeincreaseontheindustry’s original forecast of 12 million units that made Japan a star performer among developed nations.

The Group’s LCD TV shipments surged by 55.6% to 14.8 million units, including TV chassis, CKD and SKD, in 2010 (2009: 9.5 million units). This represented 7.7% of the world’s total supply. Even so, the sudden and steep drop in LCD panel prices in the second half of the year made it difficult for any brand or manufacturer to attain its revenue and profitprojections,evenifitdidmanageto meet its volume targets. As a result, the contribution of LCD TV shipments to the Group’s consolidated revenue rose only slightly, from 33.4% in 2009 to 34.8% last year. During the same period, the ASP of our LCD TV units rose from US$281.9 in 2009 to US$290.8, which was attributable to increasing shipments of larger screen sizes and higher-priced LED-backlit products. Yet the GP per unit decreased from US$16 to US$13.2 in the face of the challenging business environment.

One important development for the Group during 2010 was the signing of a trademark license agreement granting the Group an exclusive license to manufacture and distribute Philips LCD TVs in China for a five-year period commencing January 2011. This has major strategic significance for the Group, because the Philips range of TV products will complement the Group’s own brand, thereby extending its product portfolio to cover the top quartile of product segments. The established sales channels and premium brand image of Philips products in China’sfirstand second-tier cities will likewise complement the Group’sbrand’sstrongpresencein the third and fourth-tier cities and rural areas.

Production

The Group invested US$213.4 million on various capital projects and on streamlining and automating our manufacturing facilities during 2010. This included expanding the annual production capacity of the Group’s plant in Poland to 10 million units, and increasing the LCD TV production capacity of our factory in Xiamen, China, to 5 million units a year. At the same time, the Group fully integrated the Xiamen plant to include LCD-module assembly and plastic injection processes, thereby streamlining its logistical requirements to enable the Group to shorten its production lead time.

In addition, the construction of the Group’s new facility adjacent to the new 8.5G panel fab in Beijing, China, got underway. This facility is scheduled to commence operations with an initial annual capacity of 2 million LCD display units in late 2011, which will coincide with the launch of mass production at the panel fab next door.

Our two joint-venture (‘‘JV’’) manufacturing plants with LG Display Co., Ltd in China were commissioned during 2010. The one in Xiamen began shipping LCD TV modules and sets in March; while the other, in Fuqing, started shipping monitor modules and sets in May. Both plants are receiving good order flows from customers, and they are contributing to the Group’s bottom line.

Two more JV agreements were signed with AU Optronics Corporation in March and September 2010. These cover new LCD-module assembly lines in Poland and Brazil to cater for the fast-growing demand for TVs and the requirements of customersinbothregions.Theyareduetocommenceproductionin2011.

Furthermore, in June 2010 the Group entered into a JV with Everlight Electronics Co., Ltd. and Epistar Corporation for the design and manufacturing of LED light bars in China. The JV benefits the Group with a captive supply and it is enabling the Group to exercise better control over components.

On the product front, the Group set up a JV with Inventec to leverage on the increasing demand for AIO PCs. The JV shipped its first original design manufacturing (ODM) order in July 2010. The JV allows both partners to leverage on each other’s know how and capabilities in PC design and display technology, thus shortening the learning curve in a highly competitive and fast-growing market segment.

R&D

The Group is committed to staying abreast of rapid technological evolution and maintaining our competitiveness in the industry through continuous investment in R&D resources.

– IV-22 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

The Group continued to work on LED-backlit solutions to provide cost-effective designs for customers in 2010, and the Group launched a total of 800 LED-backlit models last year.

To keep pace with technological trends, the Group’s R&D team has also been working with various solution providers to come up with design roadmaps for 3D and touch-screen display products. Many of these new designs have now passed critical quality tests, and the Group expects to introduce products incorporating their new features under the Group’s own brand later this year. Meanwhile, the Group is keeping a watchful eye on the development of smart TV, which the Group believes is going to be the next big catalyst for TV demand.

Workforce

As at 31 December 2010, the Group employed 37,473 people worldwide whose total emoluments amounted to US$328 million. The Group’s employees were remunerated in accordance with industry practice in the locations where they worked. The Group provides regular training to staff members, and encourages them to engage in lifelong learning and self-development, thus ensuring the Group’s competitiveness in an ever-changing market environment. Mindful of the tremendous value of skilled and experienced workers, and the increasingly tight labor market in China, the Group introduced enhanced welfare benefits and compensation schemes to attract and retainthesevaluableassetstotheGroup’s business.

Liquidity, financial resources and capital structure

As at 31 December 2010, the Group’s cash and bank balances (including pledged bank deposit) totaled US$186.7 million (31 December 2009: US$270.4 million). Credit facilities secured from banks totaled US$3.9 billion (31 December 2009: US$3.2 billion), of which US$1.5 billion was utilised (31 December 2009: US$0.48 billion).

All bank loans were borrowed on a floating-rate basis. The maturity profile of the Group’s debts as of 31 December 2010 was a follows:

Business review

Review of operations

In 2010, market recovery and the World Cup has contributed to the 3% revenue growth towards US$4,083 million in 2010. Growth is mainly realised in South American countries (especially Brazil and Argentina) and Russia of (respectively of 34% and 49%), whereas European countries suffered from a 4% sales decline. In terms of volumes sales level remained stable at 7,674 thousand units in 2010.

Despite the US$132 million revenue growth realised in 2010 gross profit declined by US$126 million resulting from a decrease in gross profit realised per sold television. The gross profit margin declined to 15% in 2010. The main drivers for the latter are price pressure (especially in the lower end product range, due to high inventory levels at all global TV manufacturers in the second half of 2010) and lower

– IV-24 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

sales of high-end television models due to temporary component shortages as well as a high number of product introductions in the high-end market by some of the competitors.

Following the continuation of the E2I program to reduce fixed costs and improve the overall agility of the cost base, further cost reduction measures materialised and contributed to the US$196 million reduction in operating expenses, especially in the area of selling & distribution expenses (US$175 million) and research and development expenses (US$24 million). The decrease in selling and distribution expenses was realized by restructuring of distribution operation, headcount reductions and more efficient marketing spend. Also the establishment of forward integration and co-location partnerships with the Group, LGD and Sharp have reduced the industry fixed costs. The decrease in R&D expenses is mainly driven by timing of product launches in 2010.

In 2010 the loss from operations improved by US$107 million to US$104 million negative which is largely driven by the aforementioned cost reductions offset by the US$126 million decline in gross profit.

The global recession is the main factor explaining the US$59 million sales decline in the Hospitality TV segment and resulted in a further US$8 million decrease in profit before tax of this segment. As such, the reduction of loss from operations is fully attributable to the consumer TV segment.

Analysis of financial position

Non-current assets increased by US$13 million mainly resulting from investments in intangible fixed assets exceeding amortisation (by US$13 million).

In 2010, current assets grew by US$415 million following inventory build-up of US$316 million during the fourth quarter. Starting in the summer of 2010, all TV manufacturers were confronted with less successful selling in/out of their ambitious plans in Q2 surrounding the World Cup. Also the market pull for 3D technology was less successful than planned by all TV manufacturers. This led to a global overstock of panels and televisions. Lower sales in Brazil during the third quarter of 2010 and inefficient logistics and warehousing infrastructures, also contributed to the relatively high inventory level in the second half of 2010.

In addition, the increase in inventories resulted in growth in VAT receivable balance at 31 December 2010 driving the US$33 million growth in other current assets. Finally, the 2010 revenue growth led to higher outstanding receivable balances at 31 December 2010 contributing US$41 million to growth in current assets.

Non-current liabilities decreased by US$37 million mainly driven by lower long-term provisions.

– IV-25 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

Current liabilities increased by US$336 million in 2010 mainly due to growth of US$324 million in trade payable balances offset by lower (US$20 million) short term provisions largely due to reduced warranty provisions.

Cash flow analysis

In addition to the operating loss before depreciation, amortization, impairments and stock based compensation of US$15 million, growth in working capital balances has a negative impact of US$54 million on the cash flow from operating activities. In addition, cash out from provisions (mainly restructuring) of US$63 million is also an important factor contributing to the negative cash flow of operating activities of US$124 million. As the provisions recorded in 2009 mostly resulted in cash outflows in 2010, without operating result including any related charges, the line item provisions reflect related cash outflows.

Investments in property, plant and equipment and intangible fixed assets amount respectively to US$44 million and US$51 million.

Liquidity, capital structure and financial resources

Historically the business was mainly financed with financial support from the Philips Group. As at 31 December 2010, the Philips Business had no own bank balances and cash.

The Philips Group (including the Philips Business) utilises a central approach to cash management and the financing of its operations. Cash deposits of the Philips Group (including Philips Business) are pooled and transferred to a Central Treasury function on a daily basis. As the Philips Business did not operate or exist as a separate legal entity, during the period of the combined financial statements, no amounts for cash, cash equivalents and debt have been reflected within the combined financial statements. All balances with other Philips reporting units not reported as intercompany current trading accounts are presented as owners’ net investment in the carve out financial statements. The Philips Group’snetinvestment amounted to a deficit of US$310 million at 31 December 2010.

Business review

The first half of 2011 saw the world’s developed economies recovering more slowly than previously expected. The tragic earthquake and tsunami in Japan, the prolonged and increasingly widespread sovereign debt crisis in Europe and persistently high unemployment figures in the US triggered fears of another global recession and erased the optimism that the Group saw at the beginning of the year. Meanwhile, the inflation rate rose to worrying levels in many Asian countries. These negative developments have unnerved consumers and prompted them to reduce their spending.

– IV-27 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

It was a challenging period for the thin film transistor (‘‘TFT’’)-LCD industry. Panel makers were obliged to cut back production in order to support their prices, as lacklustre economic conditions weakened global demand for LCD TVs in the second quarter of 2011. Shipments of these to the US during the first six months of the year remained at the same level as the corresponding period of 2010, whereas demand in Western Europe fell by 10.3%. However, this was offset by the growth in demand from emerging markets, such as China. Overall, global sales of LCD TVs in the first half grew by 9.5% year-on-year to 90.2 million units. At the same time, the penetration rate of LED-backlit LCD TVs continued to grow, and they accounted for almost 40% of the total shipments from January to June 2011.

The macro-economic headwinds buffeted the PC monitor segment as well. A total of 85.1 million units were shipped in the first half of the year, 0.6% fewer than in the same period of 2010. The popularity of LED-backlit monitors rose, and their penetration rate grew from 14.5% in the second half of 2010 to over 30% in the first half of 2011.

Company performance

Affected by these adverse conditions, the Group recorded consolidated revenue of US$5.3 billion during the first six months, which was 2.8% less than the US$5.4 billion it achieved in the same period a year earlier. Meanwhile, profit attributable to owners of the Company declined by 12.7% to US$70.1 million, compared to US$80.3 million in the corresponding months of 2010. Consequently, basic earnings per share fell 16.2% to US2.99 cents (1H 2010: US3.57 cents). However, the gross profit (‘‘GP’’) margin improved to 6%, up from 5.5% a year earlier.

Despite the stagnant demand in the end market, the Group’s PC monitor shipments rose by 9.5% year-on-year to 28.9 million units, as the Group continues to gain market share. The GP margin from this business segment also improved to 7.1%, compared to 6.3% a year earlier. On the other hand, declining panel prices caused the ASP of PC monitors to fall by 14% year-on-year, from US$118.10 to US$101.60. The segmental revenue was US$2.9 billion, equivalent to 55.5% of the Group’stotalrevenue.

LCD TV shipments dipped by 3.9% to 6.1 million units, compared to 6.3 million units a year earlier. This was due to the weaknessoftwoofitscoremarkets,Europe and the US. The GP margin for LCD TV units was 4.9%, which was slightly lower than the 5% achieved last year but insufficient to cover the much higher operating expenses. The ASP was US$291.30, which was higher than last year’s US$290.60, due to increased shipments of higher-priced LED-backlit models. The TV business revenue amounted to US$1.8 billion, equal to 33.4% of consolidated revenue.

In terms of geographical contributions, the China market accounted for US$1.5 billion or 28.5% of total revenue (1H 2010: 30.6%). Sales in Europe and North America declined to US$1.5 billion and US$834 million, while their respective contributions to consolidated revenue were 27.6% (1H 2010: 31.7%) and 15.8% (1H

2010: 18.1%). The contribution made by the rest of the world increased to US$1.5 billion or 28.1% (1H 2010: 19.6%), reflecting the Group’s success in penetrating into the higher growth emerging markets.

During the period under review, the Group opened a manufacturing facility in St. Petersburg to serve the growing markets in Russia and neighbouring countries. This has an annual production capacity of around 2 million units and it delivered its first ODM order in April. In addition, a newproductionbaseinBeijing,China, began trial production in June this year.

To strengthen its LCD TV business further, the Group entered into a term-sheet with Philips to establish a joint venture to take over the research and development, manufacturing, sales and marketing of Philips TVs worldwide (except in China, India, the US, Canada, Mexico and certain South American countries). Due diligence about this has already been completed, and both sides are working on the business plan and contract details.

In addition, the Group committed to acquiring a parcel of land of 8,203 square meters in Shanghai at approximately US$44 million in August. The site will be developed into the Group’s headquarters of its own brand business. Construction is scheduled to commence later this year.

Liquidity, financial resources and capital structure

As at 30 June 2011, the Group’s cash and bank balances (including pledged bank deposit) totaled US$233 million (31 December 2010: US$186.7 million). Credit facilities secured from banks totaled US$3.9 billion (31 December 2010: US$3.9 billion), of which US$1.2 billion were utilized (31 December 2010: US$1.5 billion).

The Group issued a RMB500 million note at the rate of 4.25% per annum in late March 2011 to strengthen its capital structure. Proceeds from the bond have been used to finance its capital expenditure and general working capital purpose in the PRC.

Except for the note payable, all borrowings were at floating rate. The maturity profile of the Group’s borrowings and loan as of 30 June 2011 was as follows:

30 June 31 December Duration 2011 2010 US$’000 US$’000

The Group’s gearing ratio, representing the ratio of total borrowings to total assets, lowered to 6.5% as compared to 9.2% at the end of 2010. Current ratio was at a healthy 131.3% (31 December 2010: 126.1%).

Business review

Analysis of financial performance

During the first six months of 2011 sales declined by US$289 million compared to the same period in 2010. The majority of the sales decline is concentrated in European countries where a sales decrease of US$263 million was realised following the loss of market share especially in Germany, France and the Benelux countries. Sales volumes declined by 23% to 1,519 thousand units sold during the first six months of 2011 compared to the same period in 2010.

Price erosion, partly driven by stock depletion of high inventory levels from 2010, drives the US$140 million gross profit decline in the first six months of 2011 compared to the same period last year. The gross profit margin was approximately 9% for the period ended 3 July 2011. The industry and Philips Business overstock at the end of 2010, has led to relatively high stock in the retail stores, and also higher commitments to panel manufacturers in 2011. Competitors have also driven excessive price erosion to try and clear their oversupply. This has driven the market to experience higher than normal price erosion in 2011. Next to this, the new 2011 launches of competition were a few months earlier than ours, with new designs and specifications, leading to more competition in the existing range. As a result, price erosion hit the total product range, but the higher end of the range absorbed the largest price declines.

Total operating expenses increased by US$44 million in the first six months of 2011 mainly due to US$33 million growth in research and development expenses largely resulting from exceptional impairments recorded as a result of lower return on capitalised research and development expenses, driven by lower gross profit percentages.

The results deteriorated due to the increased price erosion that materialised during the first six months of 2011 and the subsequent decline in gross profit and increased total operating expenses. Furthermore, losses of US$77 million on outstanding forward exchange contracts have been incurred in the first six months of 2011. As a result, loss for the period increased by US$327 million in the first six months of 2011 compared to the same period in 2010.

During the first six months of 2011 the Hospitality TV segment showed signs of recovery, with a number of newly contracted large customers, resulting in increased sales of US$7 million to US$56 million. In addition, operating profit improved by US$14 million to US$6 million positive. As such, the overall increase in the loss before tax is driven by the consumer TV segment.

– IV-31 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

Analysis of financial position

Non-current assets decreased to US$100 million due to US$21 million impairment losses on intangible assets. Current assets decreased by US$228 million due to lower trade and other receivables (decreased by US$172 million), reflecting the lower trading activity levels.

Current liabilities decreased by US$583 million compared to December 2010 mainly due to US$494 million lower trade payables, reflecting the lower trading activity levels.

Cash flow analysis

The negative net fund flow is driven by loss from operating activities before depreciation and amortization of US$271 million in combination with negative cash flows from working capital (US$328 million) resulting from the reduction in trade payables (US$494 million) due to the seasonality of the business, where typically in thefirsthalfoftheyearpurchasesaremadeforthelaunchofnewproductsandin preparation for the higher sales season in the second half of the year.

Business review

Overview

Global economy remained unsettled in the third quarter of 2011. Deepening of sovereign debt crisis and downgrade of financial institutions in Europe sparked fear of another financial crisis, resulting in decline of economic activities across the Eurozone. Furthermore, persistently high unemployment rates in the US continued to pose barriers to recovery. Emerging economies such as China, as a result of tightened monetary policy and softened export demand, also began to show signs of slowdown.

Against such backdrop, the TFT-LCD industry was under enormous strains. Dampened demand outlook prompted channels to keep inventory lean despite the traditional peak season ahead. As a result, TV panel prices fell 4 to 8 percentage points in the third quarter, after falling an average of 2% in the first half of the year. Nonetheless, demand growth in China and other emerging markets were broadly in line with expectation, sustaining a modest growth for the industry. According to DisplaySearch, global LCD TV shipment in the third quarter of 2011 rose 11.4% year- on-year to 50.9 million units, while PC monitor shipment grew 2.6% year-on-year to 43 million units. For the first nine months of 2011, worldwide LCD TV shipment was 139.6 million units, representing a 9% year-on-year growth; total PC monitor shipment was 127.1 million units, similar to that of last year.

Company Performance

Despite the slowdown in the broader economy, the Group’srevenueand shipment remained stable. For the three months ended 30 September 2011, the Group’s consolidated revenue amounted to US$2.9 billion, similar to the same period in the previous year. Gross margin rose from 5% a year ago to 6% in the third quarter of 2011. However, due to the foreign exchange translation losses resulted from the strengthening of the US dollar against various currencies at the end of the third quarter, as well as the increased operating expenses associated with the expanded operation, profit attributable to owners of the company declined 68.7% year-on-year to US$10 million, translating into a basic earnings per share of US0.43 cent, compared to US1.36 cents a year ago.

Performance of the Group’s PC Monitor business remained relatively steady. During the third quarter of 2011, the Group shipped 15.1 million units of PC monitors, representing a year-on-year increase of 5.6% (3Q 2010: 14.3 million units). Revenue generated for this business segment was US$1.6 billion, contributing 54.9%

– IV-34 – APPENDIX IV MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

to the Group’s total revenue. GP margin improved to 7.3% from 6.6% a year ago, while GP per set increased from US$7.4 to US$7.6. Average selling price (‘‘ASP’’)for the quarter was US$103.9 versus US$110.8 in the same period last year.

The Group’sTVbusinesssegmentwasadverselyaffected by the lackluster end- market demand and stiff competition in the outsourced manufacturing. For the quarter under review, the Group shipped 3.3 million units of LCD TVs, comparable to last year. Revenue for the segment was US$954.2 million, or 33.4% of the Group’s consolidated revenue. GP margin edged up to 4.5% from 4.1% last year. In dollar term, GP per set rose from US$12.30 to US$13.1 while ASP was down to US$291.5 from US$301.1 a year earlier. However, due to the high cost base attributable to the expanded TV operation and reduced revenue for the quarter, the segment incurred an operating loss.

In terms of geographical contribution, China was the biggest market and contributed US$914.4 million (3Q 2010: US$1 billion), or 32% of the total revenue. Due to the Group’shighexposuretothesoftenedTVmarketinEuropeandNorth America, contribution from these two markets fell to US$654.2 million (3Q 2010: US$835 million) and US$497.9 million (3Q 2010: US$522.9 million) respectively, or 22.9% and 17.5% of total sales. Revenue from the rest of the world rose significantly by 34.7% from a year ago to US$788.3 million (3Q 2010: US$585.3 million), or 27.6% of the consolidated revenue. Among which, revenue from Brazil increased by 61.7% to US$330.9 million (3Q 2010: US$204.6 million), or 11.6% of the Group’s consolidated revenue, while revenue from Asia-Pacific region went up 21.1% to US$427.6 million (3Q 2010: US$353.2 million), or 15% of the Group’s consolidated revenue.
