Box 3444 Road Town, Tortola British Virgin Islands To Shareholders and, for information only, to holders of options over Ordinary Shares Dear Shareholders, 1. INTRODUCTION PROPOSED DISPOSAL OF PROPERTY NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING 3 March 2016 On 25 February 2016 and 2 March 2016, the Company announced that the Vendor (an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGP) and AGP entered into the Sale Agreement with the Purchaser and the Purchaser s Guarantor in relation to the conditional Disposal of the Target Group, which owns the property known as Dah Sing Financial Centre held by the AGP Group in Hong Kong, for a gross Consideration (for the Sale Shares) of HK$10,000 million (approximately 926 million) in cashtothepurchaser. The purpose of this document is to provide Shareholders with further information on the Disposal and the reasons why the Directors consider that the Disposal is in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole. A summary of the principal terms of the Sale Agreement is set out in Part II of this document. The Target Group to be acquired by the Purchaser comprises SEA (BVI) (an indirect whollyowned subsidiary of the Company) and Wing Siu (a wholly-owned subsidiary of SEA (BVI)). Wing Siu is the sole registered and beneficial owner of the Property, a 38-storey commercial and office 5

PART I LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN building situated at 108 Gloucester Road, Wanchai, Hong Kong with a gross floor area and total lettable area of approximately 37,214 square metres and 32,606 square metres respectively and 156 car parking spaces. The Property was valued as at 31 December 2015 at a value of HK$9,500 million (approximately 880 million) by Savills Valuation and Professional Services Limited, an independent property valuer. In addition to the Consideration for the Sale Shares, the Purchaser will pay the Vendor on Completion: (i) the Capex Amount of HK$80 million (approximately 7.4 million) to compensate the Vendor for capital expenditure on the Property and furniture, fixtures and fittings which is not reflected in the Consideration; and (ii) an amount equivalent to the Owner s Fund outstanding at Completion held by the Target Group s manager/managing agent for the purpose of managing and maintaining the Property. The balance of the Owner s Fund as at 31 December 2015 amounted to approximately HK$45 million (approximately 4 million). Completion of the Disposal is subject to various conditions, more particularly set out below. Assuming the Disposal proceeds to Completion, the AGP Group will receive a total gross cash consideration for the Sale Shares, the Capex Amount and the Owner s Fund of approximately HK$10,125 million (approximately 938 million). After repayment of the Bank Loan with a principal amount of approximately HK$1,981 million (approximately 183 million), the AGP Group will receive a net consideration for the Sale Shares of approximately HK$8,019 million (approximately 743 million) and together with the Capex Amount and the Owner s Fund, a total net consideration of approximately HK$8,144 million (approximately 754 million), before deducting transaction costs and expenses. The capital gain from the Disposal before transaction costs and expenses is expected to be approximately HK$700 million (approximately 65 million). The AGP Group and its majority shareholder, SEA, currently occupy the 25th and 26th floors of the Property as their respective headquarters in Hong Kong. At Completion, Wing Siu will lease back the 25th and 26th floors of the Property to the AGP Group together with the right to use car parking and storage facilities at a monthly rent of HK$1,121,546 (approximately 103,856) for a term of 3 years with an option to renew for further 3 years and in accordance with such other principal terms of a lease agreed between the Purchaser and the Vendor. SEA will continue to share the use of the premises with the AGP Group after Completion. After Completion, the AGP Group will continue to focus on its other development and investment projects in Hong Kong and mainland China. Particulars of the AGP Group s strategy and its remaining property portfolio are set out in the Company s interim report for the six months ended 30 June 2015. Under Rule 15 of the AIM Rules, the Disposal is deemed to be a disposal resulting in a fundamental change of business of the Company, and as such requires the approval, by way of ordinary resolution, of the Shareholders at the EGM. 6

PART I LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN The Company s majority shareholder, SEA, is a company listed on the HKSE and, under the HK Listing Rules, SEA is required to seek approval of its own shareholders by way of an ordinary resolution before casting its vote at the EGM. SEA is also required, under the HK Listing Rules, to publish a circular and to convene a general meeting of the SEA shareholders. Announcements and circulars of SEA relating to the Disposal are subject to pre-vetting by the HKSE and it is currently anticipated that SEA s circular will only be published on or before 31 March 2016 and SEA s general meeting of shareholders will be held on 29 April 2016. The Company s EGM to approve the Disposal will therefore be held on 29 April 2016, shortly after SEA s general meeting. A copy of the circular and the relevant announcements of SEA relating to the Disposal will be published on SEA s website (www.seagroup.com.hk). SEA s majority shareholder, Nan Luen International Limited, has undertaken to vote in favour of the resolution to approve the Disposal at the SEA shareholders meeting in respect of its holdings of 438,603,289 ordinary shares in SEA, which represent approximately 64.64% of the issued share capital of SEA at the date of this document. Subject to Nan Luen International Limited voting in favour of the resolution to approve the Disposal at the SEA shareholders meeting, SEA, has undertaken to vote in favour of the Resolution to approve the Disposal at the EGM in respect of its holdings of 861,278,857 Ordinary Shares, which represent approximately 97.17% of the issued share capital of AGP. Assuming Shareholders approve the Disposal, Completion is expected to take place on or before 24 May 2016, after both the SEA shareholders meeting and the EGM. 2. BACKGROUND TO AND REASONS FOR THE DISPOSAL Since the Company s admission to AIM, the Company has been focused on developing its property portfolio in Hong Kong and mainland China. It is the AGP Group s strategy to review and optimise its property portfolio from time to time with a view to achieving the greatest value for Shareholders. Wing Siu holds the AGP Group s interests in the Property, which was acquired by Wing Siu in 1997. The Property is a 38-storey commercial and office building situated at 108 Gloucester Road, Wanchai, Hong Kong with a gross floor area and total lettable area of approximately 37,214 square metres and 32,606 square metres respectively and 156 car parking spaces. The Property was valued as at 31 December 2015 at a value of HK$9,500 million (approximately 880 million) by Savills Valuation and Professional Services Limited, an independent property valuer. The Board believes that the Disposal provides an optimum opportunity for the Company to realise cash and unlock the value of its investment in the Property at fair market value. Following Completion of the Disposal, based on receipt of the Consideration (for the Sale Shares), the Capex Amount and the Owner s Fund and taking into account the unaudited net asset value of the Target Group as at 31 December 2015 from its unaudited consolidated management accounts (adjusted for the carrying amount of parts of the Property which are leased to third parties at market value as at 31 December 2015; while the carrying amount of the parts of the Property which are occupied by the AGP Group remained at cost less accumulated depreciation), the AGP Group expects to record in its consolidated income statement a gain (before transaction costs and expenses) of approximately HK$700 million (approximately 65 million) and to realise a net cash amount of 7

PART I LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN approximately HK$8,144 million (approximately 754 million), after repayment of the Bank Loan, for future investment into its other development and investment projects and other potential real estate projects and as general working capital for the AGP Group. After the Disposal, the Company will continue with its current business of property investment and development, hotel operation and property and asset management in Hong Kong and mainland China. Further particulars of the Company s remaining property portfolio are set out in the Company s interim report for the six months ended 30 June 2015. The Consideration for the Disposal was determined after arm s length negotiations between the AGP Group and the Purchaser with reference to, among others, prevailing market prices of similar properties in the relevant location and the value of the Property. The Directors consider that the Consideration is fair and reasonable and in the interest of the Company and its Shareholders taken as a whole. The Directors have confirmed that the Purchaser, the Purchaser s Guarantor and their respective ultimate beneficial owners are independent of the Company and not a related party as defined in the AIM Rules. 3. USE OF PROCEEDS It is expected that the aggregate net cash proceeds of the Disposal (including the Capex Amount and the Owner s Fund) receivable by the Vendor on Completion after repayment of the Bank Loan will be approximately HK$8,144 million (approximately 754 million), before deducting transaction costs and expenses. The Company intends to apply the net proceeds from the Disposal for future investment into its other development and investment projects and other potential real estate projects and as general working capital for the AGP Group. 4. CURRENT TRADING AND PROSPECTS ThecurrenttradingoftheAGPGroupisinlinewith the expectations of the Directors, as set out in the Company s interim report for the six months ended 30 June 2015. Taking into account the Consideration (for the Sale Shares), the Capex Amount and the Owner s Fund (subject to adjustment and audit) and the unaudited net asset value of the Target Group as at 31 December 2015 from its unaudited consolidated management accounts (adjusted for the carrying amount of parts of the Property which are leased to third parties at market value as at 31 December 2015; while the carrying amount of the parts of the Property which are occupied by the AGP Group remained at cost less accumulated depreciation), the gain arising from the Disposal to be recognised by the AGP Group in its consolidated income statement is estimated at approximately HK$700 million (approximately 65 million). 8

PART I LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN The above calculation and accounting treatment are subject to review by the auditors of the AGP Group. The actual financial impact to the Group arising from the Disposal to be recorded in the AGP Group s consolidated accounts will be recalculated based on the net asset value of the Target Group as at the date to which completion accounts are drawn up. Upon Completion, the Target Group will cease to be subsidiaries of the AGP Group and will therefore result in the deconsolidation of the assets and liabilities of the Target Group from the AGP Group s consolidated accounts. 5. INFORMATION ON THE TARGET GROUP AND THE PROPERTY SEA (BVI) is an investment holding company and its sole business is the holding of the entire equity interest of Wing Siu which is the sole registered and beneficial owner of the Property. As at the date of this document, the Property is legally and beneficially owned by Wing Siu. The Property is a 38-storey commercial and office building situated at 108 Gloucester Road, Wanchai, Hong Kong with a gross floor area and total lettable area of approximately 37,214 square metres and 32,606 square metres respectively and 156 car parking spaces. Currently, the occupancy rate of the Property is 95 per cent. The Property is subject to a mortgage to secure the Bank Loan with a principal amount of approximately HK$1,981 million (approximately 183 million) in favour of the Bank. The Bank Loan will be repaid before Completion or from the proceeds of the Consideration on Completion. The Property was valued as at 31 December 2015 at a value of HK$9,500 million (approximately 880 million) by an independent property valuer. The consolidated carrying value of the assets of the Target Group as at 30 June 2015 was HK$8,617 million (approximately 798 million). Based on the unaudited consolidated management accounts of the Target Group for the year ended 31 December 2014 and 31 December 2013, which was prepared based on the audited accounts of Wing Siu for the same period, the revenue of the Target Group for the year ended 31 December 2014 was approximately HK$243 million (approximately 23 million) (Year ended 31 December 2013: HK$245 million (approximately 23 million)). The net profits before taxation and after taxation (including the fair value gain of investment properties) of the Target Group for the year ended 31 December 2014 were approximately HK$744 million (approximately 69 million) and HK$717 million (approximately 66 million) respectively (Year ended 31 December 2013: HK$321 million (approximately 30 million) and HK$303 million (approximately 28 million) respectively). Based on the unaudited consolidated management accounts of the Target Group for the year ended 31 December 2015, the consolidated net assets of the Target Group as at 31 December 2015 was approximately HK$9,379 million (approximately 869 million). 9

PART I LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN 9. RECOMMENDATION The Board considers that the terms of the Disposal are on normal commercial terms and are fair and reasonable, and the Disposal is in the best interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
