As it is a summary, it does not contain all the information that may be important to you.Youshouldreadthewholecircularbeforemakingadecisionastohowyouwouldcast your votes at the EGM in relation to the Acquisition and the appropriate course of action for yourself. There are risks associated with any business. You should read the section headed ‘‘Risk Factors’’ in this circular carefully before making a decision on the Acquisition. THE ACQUISITION On 23 May 2015, the Company (as the purchaser) and Guotsing SG (as the seller) entered into the Share Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Company has conditionally agreed to acquire, and Guotsing SG has conditionally agreed to sell or procure to be sold its interest in the entire issued share capital in the Target Company on the terms and subject to the conditions set out in the Share Purchase Agreement. The Target Group is primarily engaged in property development and construction businesses in Singapore. The Consideration is HK$2,617,650,000, to be settled through the issuance and allotment by the Company of: (i) 647,273,454 CPS to Guotsing SG (or New Guotsing Holdco as Guotsing SG may direct) and (ii) 304,599,273 CPS to Guotsing SG (or the Trustee or a company to be held by the Trustee as Guotsing SG may direct) at the Issue Price of HK$2.75 per CPS. The Trustee shall hold such 304,599,273 CPS on trust for the Selected Participants in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Management Share Scheme. The Consideration was determined after arm’s length negotiation between the parties to the Share Purchase Agreement having regard to the market value of the property development projects of the Target Group, the financial performance and prospect of the business of the Target Group, results and market value of comparable companies, and the benefits to the Group following Completion. Please refer to the section headed ‘‘Letter from the Board’’ in this circular for further details on the Acquisition, the Share Purchase Agreement and the Specific Mandate to be sought from Independent Shareholders at the EGM. IMPLICATIONS OF THE ACQUISITION UNDER THE LISTING RULES AND THE TAKEOVERS CODE In March 2014, CNQC Development acquired 75% of the total issued share capital of the Company and made a mandatory general offer for all the outstanding Shares (other than the Shares held by parties acting in concert with it) in issue at the time. Following such acquisition and completion of the mandatory general offer, there was a change in control of the Company and CNQC Development and its parent company, Guotsing PRC became the controlling shareholders of the Company. As at the Latest Practicable Date, CNQC Development directly held 74.72% of the issued share capital of the Company. Guotsing SG is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Guotsing PRC and therefore, the Acquisition constitutes a very substantial acquisition, a connected transaction and a reverse takeover of the Company under Chapters 14 and 14A of the Listing
