Reasons for and Benefits of the Aircraft Finance Lease Transactions Sample Clauses

Reasons for and Benefits of the Aircraft Finance Lease Transactions. Entering into the 2018-2019 Aircraft Finance Lease Service Framework Agreement will broaden the aircraft financing channels to satisfy the business development need of the Group. The aircraft finance lease would provide more flexibility for the financing channels in respect of the aircraft to be introduced by the Group and have less impact on the cash flow of the Group. The Company is of the view that it is beneficial for the Company to enter into the 2018-2019 Aircraft Finance Lease Service Framework Agreement with CNACG after considering other financing options. Firstly, compared with traditional bank loans, finance lease transaction(s)’ application process is generally more relaxed and offers a higher loan-to-value ratio.

In addition, by utilizing the finance lease structure to introduce the Leased Aircraft, the Lessor(s) can provide value added tax invoices for the principal amount and interest payments under the Finance Lease Agreements to the Lessee(s), and therefore, the Lessee(s) can use it to deduct value added tax.

Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx is owned by two shareholders, namely, Xxxxx Xxxxxxx (55% equity interest) and Xxxxx Xxxxxxx (45% equity interest).

Accordingly, the New Entrusted Operation Management and Marketing Agreement constitute continuing connected transactions of the Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. Since the transactions contemplated under the New Entrusted Operation Management and Marketing Agreement are entered into on normal commercial terms and one or more of the applicable percentage ratios (other than the profits ratio) as set out in Rule 14.07 of the Listing Rules are, on an annual basis, more than 1% but all of them are less than 5%, the transactions contemplated under the New Entrusted Operation Management and Marketing Agreement are only subject to the reporting, announcement and annual review requirements but are exempt from the circular, the independent financial advice and the independent shareholders’ approval under Chapter 14A of the Listings Rules.

  • REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE TRANSACTION The Group is principally engaged in the development, sale, lease, investment and management of properties in the PRC and the sales of electronic and electrical related products and sales of building related materials and equipment. Each of the Merchants Nanjing and Nanjing Changmao would benefit from the cooperation in order to exert their strengths, grasp market opportunities and enhance their investment portfolio in the property market in the PRC, which would improve the capital efficiency and effectiveness, reduce the investment risks and thus a greater return could be created for the Shareholders. The terms of the Cooperation Agreement have been arrived at after arm’s length negotiations between the parties. The Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) have confirmed that the Acquisition and the terms of the Cooperation Agreement (including the financing and profit distribution arrangements) and the transactions contemplated thereunder are fair and reasonable, on normal commercial terms and in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.

  • REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE ACQUISITION The principal activities of the Group are investment holding, manufacturing and trading of printed circuit boards (the “Printed Circuit Boards Business”), trading of petroleum and energy products and related business (the “Petroleum and Energy Business”), and vessel chartering. In view of the ongoing trade war between the PRC and the US and the recent global coronavirus outbreak, there have been adverse impacts on the Printed Circuit Boards Business and the Petroleum and Energy Business. The Board expects that the Petroleum and Energy Business may be further affected due to (i) the increase of volatility of the oil price; (ii) the intensified competition in the oil trading business arising from slowing down of the international trade and the demand for oil and oil products; (iii) tightening of bank credits available to the Group; and (iv) ongoing legal proceedings against the Company. Therefore, the Group considers to diversify its business into other business sectors. The Acquisition is a good opportunity for the Group to diversify its business stream and mitigate the risks arising from the international trade. The Target Group’s business in the manufacturing and trading of printing and packaging products is based in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and its clients are mainly from Hong Kong and the PRC. Over the years, with implementation of a series of operational strategies, including focusing more on sales orders for high-quality printing and packaging products with higher profit margin, stringent cost control measures and upgrading the manufacturing base by investing in new and advanced printing and packaging equipment, the Target Group has established its own brand and a long-term loyalty client base, which contributes to more than 50% of the Target Group’s revenue. Furthermore, in negotiating the Acquisition, the Vendor agreed to provide profit guarantees to the Purchaser as set out in the section headed “Profit guarantees and compensation” above, which provides a safeguard for the Company to closely monitor the development of the Target Group. The management of the Company believes that the printing and packaging business of the Target Group will have a synergy effect on the Group’s current business. With the new business sector, the Company would be able to provide printing and packaging, brand labelling and other logistics services to its existing customers. As the Group has an existing vessel chartering business, the management of the Company will further explore the possibility of transforming the existing vessels or hiring vessels to shipping cargoes such that the Group could further use its own resources to extend its business into logistics services. With the view to strengthen the Group’s long-term competitiveness and value, the Group plans to combine the high-quality printing business with intellectual property marketing to achieve a total marketing solution model to provide creative solution to its clients. In this way, the printing and packaging business is able to create a vertically integrated business to include selecting/designing intellectual property products which fit brand image, licensing from intellectual property holder and providing printed marketing materials and packages, etc. Currently, the Group is in the process of hiring staff who are experienced in marketing intellectual property products such as cartoon and movie images. The Consideration, which would be partially settled by the issue of Promissory Note, will not require substantial immediate cash outflow of the Group, therefore easing the financial burden of the Company. In the view of all above, the Board (including the independent non-executive Directors) considers that the Acquisition is fair and reasonable and is in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.
