Save as disclosed above, Mr. Chen has not held any other directorships in the last three years in public companies, the securities of which are listed on any securities market in Hong Kong or overseas, or any position with the Company or other members of the Group. As at the date of this announcement, Mr. Chen does not have any relationships with other directors, senior management, substantial shareholders (as defined in the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "**Listing Rules**")), or controlling shareholders (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company.

------

Mr. Chen has entered into a letter of appointment with the Company for a term of three years, subject to the retirement and rotation provisions as set out in the memorandum and articles of association of the Company. Pursuant to the letter of appointment, unless the Board (or the compensation committee of the Board, as applicable) otherwise determines, Mr. Chen is entitled to an annual director's fee of US$80,000, which was determined with reference to his duties and experience.

Save as disclosed above, there is no other information which is discloseable pursuant to the requirements under Rule 13.51(2) of the Listing Rules, and there are no other matters relating to the appointment of Mr. Chen that need to be brought to the attention of the shareholders of the Company.

The nomination committee of the Board (the "**Nomination Committee**") has reviewed the structure and composition of the Board, the confirmations and disclosures given by Mr. Chen and assessed the background, experience and expertise of Mr. Chen in accordance with the director nomination policy and board diversity policy of the Company (which takes into factors such as, among others, gender, age, cultural and educational background, professional qualifications, skills, knowledge, industry and regional experience and length of service into consideration). Mr. Chen has confirmed that (i) he satisfies the independence as regards each of the factors referred to in Rule 3.13(1) to (8) of the Listing Rules; (ii) he has no past or present financial or other interests in the business of the Company or its subsidiaries, nor is he connected with any core connected person (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company; and (iii) that there are no other factors that may affect his independence at the time of his appointment. The Nomination Committee and the Board have also conducted assessment on his independence and considered that Mr. Chen is independent in accordance with the independence guidelines set out in the Listing Rules. Having considered the relevant factors as aforementioned, the Nomination Committee is of the view that the appointment of Mr. Chen as an independent non-executive director of the Company will bring valuable business experience, knowledge and professionalism to the Board, thereby enhancing its efficient and effective functioning and promoting diversity. The Nomination Committee therefore recommended that Mr. Chen be nominated and appointed as an independent non-executive director of the Company.

The Board would like to express its warmest welcome to Mr. Chen in joining the Board.
