Directors’ Report<br />
Maximum entitlement of each participant<br />
Unless approved by the Shareholders, the total number of Shares issued and to be issued upon exercise of<br />
all outstanding options granted under the Share Option Scheme and any other share option schemes of the<br />
Company (including both exercised and outstanding options) to each participant in any 12-month period must not<br />
exceed 1% of the Shares in issue. Each grant of options to a Director, chief executive or substantial Shareholder<br />
or any of their respective associates must be approved by the independent non-executive Directors (excluding<br />
any independent non-executive Director who is the grantee of the options).<br />
Under the Share Option Scheme, the Company granted three batches of Share Options to its Director and<br />
employees. On 12 October 2011, the Company offered 3,000,000 and 34,500,000 Share Options to a Director<br />
and employees respectively, at the exercise price of HKD6.66 and 3,000,000 and 32,200,000 Share Options<br />
were accepted by a Director and employees respectively. On 28 November 2012, the Company granted another<br />
5,000,000 and 17,750,000 Share Options to a Director and employees respectively at the exercise price of<br />
HKD3.92.<br />
As a result of the rights issue completed on 29 December 2014, adjustments were made to the exercise prices<br />
and the number of shares falling to be issued upon the exercise of the Share Options in accordance with<br />
the terms of the Share Option Scheme and the supplementary guidance issued by the Stock Exchange on 5<br />
September 2005 regarding the adjustment of share options under rule 17.03(13) of the Listing Rules.<br />
A total of 48,100,000 Options were outstanding under the Share Option Scheme as at the completion of the rights<br />
issue. The exercise prices and the number of the shares falling to be issued under the outstanding Share Options<br />
were adjusted pursuant to Clause 11 of the Share Option Scheme (the “Option Adjustments”) with effect from 1<br />
January 2015, and such adjustments have been reviewed and confirmed by the independent financial adviser of<br />
the Company, Somerley Capital Limited. Details of the adjustments are set out in Tables 25 and 26 below.<br />
On 10 June 2015, the Company granted another 60,000,000 and 94,750,000 Share Options to a Director and<br />
employees respectively at the exercise price of HKD0.445. The closing price of the shares immediately before the<br />
grant of Share Options on 10 June 2015 was HKD0.52 per Share. Further details of the grant are set out in note<br />
27 to the consolidated financial statements.<br />
