  • LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS NWD is the controlling shareholder of NWDS and hence a connected person of NWDS. NWD is interested in approximately 57% of the issued share capital of NWSH as at the date of this announcement and NWSH being an associate of NWD is also a connected person of NWDS under the Listing Rules. Members of the CTF Jewellery Group are associates of CTF, which in turn is a substantial shareholder of NWD, a controlling shareholder of NWDS. Accordingly, members of the CTF Jewellery Group are also connected persons of NWD and NWDS under the Listing Rules. Therefore, the Continuing Connected Transactions constitute continuing connected transactions of NWDS under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. Since NWDS is a subsidiary of NWD and CTF Jewellery is an associate of CTF which is a substantial shareholder of NWD, the transactions contemplated under the Master Concessionaire Counter Agreement also constitute continuing connected transactions of NWD under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. As the relevant percentage ratios calculated pursuant to Rule 14.07 of the Listing Rules in respect of each of the Continuing Connected Transactions are more than 2.5%, each of the Continuing Connected Transactions is subject to the reporting, announcement and independent shareholders’ approval requirements under the Listing Rules so far as NWDS is concerned. In view of the interests of NWD and CTF in the relevant Continuing Connected Transactions, NWD, CTF and their associates will abstain from voting in respect of the resolutions to be proposed at the EGM to approve the Continuing Connected Transactions, the CCT Agreements and the Annual Caps.

NWDS will convene the EGM for the purpose of seeking approval from the Independent Shareholders on the Continuing Connected Transactions, the CCT Agreements, and the Annual Caps. The Independent Board Committee will be established to consider the terms of the Continuing Connected Transactions, the CCT Agreements and the Annual Caps, and to advise the Independent Shareholders as to whether the Continuing Connected Transactions, the CCT Agreements and the Annual Caps are in the interests of NWDS and the NWDS Shareholders as a whole. An independent financial adviser will be appointed to advise the Independent Board Committee in this regard. A circular of NWDS containing, amongst others, further information on (i) the Continuing Connected Transactions, the CCT Agreements and the Annual Caps; (ii) a letter of recommendation from the Independent Board Committee to the Independent Shareholders; (iii) a letter of advice from the independent financial adviser to the Independent Board Committee; and

  • IMPLICATIONS UNDER THE LISTING RULES As the relevant percentage ratios (as defined under the Listing Rules) in respect of the maximum amount of financial assistance granted to the Borrowers or their associates pursuant to the Loan Agreement exceed 5% but are under 25%, the transaction contemplated thereunder constitutes a discloseable transaction of the Company and is therefore subject to the announcement requirement but exempt from obtaining Shareholders’ approval under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.
