Share Award Scheme

The Board of Directors of the Company adopted a share award scheme (the

“Share Award Scheme”) on 16 March 2009 whereby Eligible Employees of

the Company received an offer from the Company to purchase Tradelink shares

(“Shares”) at a discounted price or be granted free of charge Shares from the

Trustee of the Share Award Scheme and subject to a lock-up period.

The purposes of the Share Award Scheme were to reward the contributions of

certain Eligible Employees and to retain them for the continued operation and

development of the Group.

At its meeting held on 19 November 2013, the Board of the Company

replaced the Share Award Scheme with a new performance bonus scheme and

directed the Share Award Scheme be wound up. Since then, the Company has

ceased to award shares under the Share Award Scheme. At its meeting held on

25 March 2014, the Board of the Company endorsed the early release of all

the shares locked up under the Share Award Scheme to the Eligible Employees

prior to expiry of the lock-up period.

Pre-IPO and Post-IPO Share Option Schemes

The Company adopted a Pre-IPO Share Option Scheme on 2 August 2000,

which was later amended on 11 September 2001 and 26 November 2002

respectively and a Post-IPO Share Option Scheme on 14 October 2005

whereby the Directors of the Company are authorised to invite employees of the

Group, including its Directors of any company in the Group, to take up options

to subscribe for shares in the Company at a nominal consideration of HK$1.00

per grant under the Post-IPO Share Option Scheme (collectively the “Share

Option Schemes”). Each option gives the holder the right to subscribe for one

ordinary share in the Company.

The Share Option Schemes give the participants an opportunity to have a

personal stake in the Company and help motivate the participants to optimise

their performance and efficiency and attract and retain participants whose

contributions are important to the long-term growth and profitability of the Group.

The total number of shares which may be issued upon exercise of all options

to be granted under the Share Option Schemes shall not exceed in aggregate

10% of the issued capital or 77,763,250 shares at the Company’s listing

date, being 28 October 2005 (the “Scheme Mandate Limit”). Options that

have lapsed shall not be counted for the purpose of calculating the Scheme

Mandate Limit. The Scheme Mandate Limit may be renewed by obtaining

approval of shareholders in general meetings of the Company provided that

such total number of shares which may be issued upon exercise of all options

to be granted under the share option schemes under the Scheme Mandate Limit

as renewed shall not exceed 10% of the shares issued at the date of approval

of such limit (the “Refreshed Limit”). Options previously granted (including those

outstanding, cancelled, lapsed or exercised) shall not be counted for the purpose

of calculating the Refreshed Limit.

股份獎勵計劃

本公司董事會於二零零九年三月十六日採納一項股份獎勵計

劃(「股份獎勵計劃」),本公司的合資格僱員將自本公司獲得

要約,按折讓價自股份獎勵計劃受託人購買貿易通股份(「股

份」)或獲股份獎勵計劃受託人免費授贈股份,惟須受禁售期

所規限。

股份獎勵計劃旨在獎勵若干合資格僱員所作出的貢獻,以及

挽留彼等為本集團的持續經營及發展而努力工作。

本公司董事會於二零一三年十一月十九日舉行的會議上以新

績效花紅計劃取代股份獎勵計劃,指示終止股份獎勵計劃。

自此,本公司不再根據股份獎勵計劃授出股份。本公司董事

會於二零一四年三月二十五日舉行的會議上,批准於禁售期

屆滿之前向合資格僱員提前解除股份獎勵計劃的全部禁售股

份。
