CONTINUING CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS On 28 December 2018, the Company entered into the Conditional Master Agreement for the sales and purchases of electronic components and distribution of SHARP products and distribution of other brand products under the Hon Hai Group between the Group and the Hon Hai Group in place of the Previous Master Agreement with Hon Hai dated 9 November 2015 which will expire on 31 December 2018. In anticipation of such continuing sales and purchases of electronic components and distribution of SHARP products and distribution of other brand products under the Hon Hai Group between the Group and the Hon Hai Group in future, the Group entered into the Conditional Master Agreement with Hon Hai for the next 3 financial years during the period between 1 January 2019 and 31 December 2021 (both dates inclusive). LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS Foxconn, being a wholly owned subsidiary of Hon Hai, is interested in 19.81% of the issued share capital of the Company and a substantial shareholder of the Company. FIT Taiwan, Huai An Fulitong Trading and SHARP are non-wholly owned subsidiaries of Hon Hai. Therefore, Hon Hai, Foxconn, FIT Taiwan, Huai An Fulitong Trading, SHARP and their respective associates are connected persons of the Company and the Continuing Connected Transactions constitute continuing connected transactions of the Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. As the applicable Percentage Ratios for the Purchase Caps and the Sale Caps are expected to exceed 5% on an annual basis, the Continuing Connected Transactions constitute non-exempt continuing connected transactions of the Company and the Conditional Master Agreement, the Caps and the Continuing Connected Transactions contemplated thereunder are subject to the disclosure and Independent Shareholders’ approval, annual review by the independent non-executive Directors and auditors and annual reporting requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. As the SGM will be convened after 1 January 2019, the Company will comply with the requirement under Rule 14A.34 of the Listing Rules and enter into written agreements for all connected transactions carried out during the period between 1 January 2019 and the date of SGM.
