Share Option Schemes (continued)

Share Option Scheme 2014 (continued)

The purpose of the Share Option Scheme 2014 is:

(a) to assist the Company to attract and retain the best available personnel;

and

(b) to provide additional incentives to employees, directors, consultants,

business associates and advisers to promote the success of the Group;

by providing them with an opportunity to have a personal stake in the Company

through an offer of grant of options. The Shares subject to the Share Option

Scheme 2014 will be identical in nature with the other Shares of the Company.

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

to be granted under the Share Option Scheme 2014 shall not exceed in

aggregate 10% of the issued capital of the Company at its adoption date,

being 79,207,319 shares on 9 May 2014 (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 Scheme 2014 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.

The subscription amount payable in respect of each share option upon

exercise of an option shall be determined by the Board and shall be not less

than the greater of:

(i) the closing price of the shares on the SEHK’s daily quotation sheet on the

date, which must be a business day, of a written offer of such option (the

“Date of Grant”); and

(ii) the average closing price of the shares on the SEHK as stated in the

SEHK’s daily quotation sheets for the five business days immediately

preceding the Date of Grant.

At the AGM of the Company on 8 May 2015, shareholders approved the

amendments to clauses 10.1(D), 10.1(E) and 2.1 of the Share Option Scheme

2014. Such amendments to the Share Option Scheme 2014 give the Board

a discretion to waive or extend the 90-day Limitation with authority to impose

conditions to any such waiver or extension and to provide an appropriate

exercise period for each grant of options during the Scheme Period. This

provides the Board with necessary flexibility it needs to deal, in the best

interest of the Company, with the different types of situations that may arise

over the course of the ten-year validity period of the Share Option Scheme

2014.
