BACKGROUND

Reference is made to the announcements of the Company dated 19 October 2016, 29 November 2016, 3 December 2019, and 30 November 2020 in relation to the Convertible Bonds issued by CondorTech.

Pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Bonds, United Noble, being the holder of the Convertible Bonds, has the right at its option, to convert any Convertible Bonds at any time during the conversion period, or CondorTech may redeem each Convertible Bond on the maturity date of the Convertible Bonds at 100% of the principal amount of the outstanding Convertible Bonds together with all accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of such Convertible Bond.

On 8 May 2020, United Noble informed CondorTech and requested CondorTech to redeem 100% of the principal amount of the outstanding Convertible Bonds upon the Maturity Date. Despite various attempts made by United Noble to follow up with CondorTech on the repayment, CondorTech has not made any repayment for the redemption of the outstanding Convertible Bonds or the accrued and unpaid interest thereon up to the date of this announcement. As at the date of this announcement, the outstanding Convertible Bonds and interests accrued and unpaid amounted to EUR5,000,000 (which is equivalent to approximately HK$47,050,000) and EUR250,000 (which is equivalent to approximately HK$2,352,500), respectively. The carrying amounts of Convertible

Bonds' receivable measured at fair value amounted to HK$18,842,000 as of 31 December 2020.

THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT

In order to settle the outstanding payment payable by CondorTech to United Noble, the Settlement Agreement was entered into. Principal terms of the Settlement Agreement are set forth below:

Date: 25 March 2021

Parties: (i) CondorTech;
(ii) United Noble;
(iii) Scan4all; and
(iv) FW.

To the best knowledge, information, and belief of the Directors after having made all reasonable inquiry, each of the CondorTech, Scan4all, and FW and their respective ultimate beneficial owners is an Independent Third Party.

As of the date of the Settlement Agreement, Scan4all is indebted to CondorTech in an amount in principal of EUR 4,155,656.68 (which is equivalent to approximately HK$39,401,729) and related accrued interests of EUR 1,213,476.26 (which is equivalent to approximately HK$11,418,812) (the “Scan4all Debts”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, United Noble agreed to sell to FW, and FW agreed to purchase from United Noble, all the Convertible Bonds free from any encumbrance and together with all rights attached thereto with effect on the date of the Settlement Agreement at a purchase price of EUR 5,225,000 (which is equivalent to approximately HK$49,167,250). Immediately upon completion of the transfer of the Convertible Bonds from United Noble to FW, both CondorTech and United Noble shall be released from (i) all and any of their liabilities under the subscription agreement for the Convertible Bonds, and (ii) all and any of their liabilities they may have towards each other under the Exclusive Distribution Agreement.

The purchase price of EUR5,225,000 (which is equivalent to approximately HK$49,167,250) for the transfer of the Convertible Bonds from United Noble to FW was determined taking into consideration of the principal amount of the Convertible Bonds of EUR 5,000,000 (which is equivalent to approximately HK$47,050,000) together with interest received in advance at 3% per annum based on deferred payment, and shall be payable in cash as follows:

  • (i) payment in cash in an amount of EUR2,225,000 (which is equivalent to approximately HK$20,937,250) to be made within five (5) business days after the date of the entering of the Settlement Agreement (the “First Instalment”); and
  • (ii) deferred payment in cash in an amount of EUR3,000,000 (which is equivalent to approximately HK$28,230,000) (the “Second Instalment”) to be made upon the expiry of a period of thirty (30) months from the date of the entering of the Settlement Agreement, i.e. by 25 September 2023 at the latest.

In addition, subject to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, CondorTech agreed to pay in cash to United Noble by way of final settlement for the accrued interests of the outstanding Convertible Bonds in an amount of EUR250,000 (which is equivalent to approximately HK$2,352,500) within five (5) business days after the date of the entering of the Settlement Agreement.

Release of Share Pledge by CondorTech

To guarantee the due performance on the part of CondorTech under the terms of the Convertible Bonds, CondorTech provided in favor of United Noble a share pledge over its 30% interests in Scan4all as security. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement and upon payment of the First Instalment by FW to United Noble, United Noble agreed to release such share pledge granted by CondorTech.

Security provided by FW

To guarantee the due payment of the Second Instalment, FW undertakes to:

  • (a) grant on the date of the Settlement Agreement a share pledge over its 30% interests in Scan4all as security in favor of United Noble with effect as from the date of payment of the First Instalment; and
  • (b) cause each of Biotech and TriAnchor to grant on the date of the Settlement Agreement a joint guarantee in a maximum total amount of EUR3,000,000 (which is equivalent to approximately HK$28,230,000) as security in favor of United Noble with effect as from the date of payment of the First Instalment.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT

As stated in the announcement of the Company dated 30 November 2020, despite various attempts made by United Noble to follow up with CondorTech on the repayment, CondorTech has not made any repayment for the redemption of the outstanding Convertible Bonds or the accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Upon negotiation with CondorTech and taking into consideration of the financial status of CondorTech, the Company is of the view that the entering of the Settlement Agreement and the transfer of the outstanding Convertible Bonds as contemplated thereunder provides an opportunity for the Company to recover the outstanding payment due from CondorTech in an amicable and efficient manner without incurring additional and unnecessary time, costs and effort to initiate legal proceedings against CondorTech which may also bring negative impact on the Company.

The Directors, including the independent non-executive Directors, consider that the terms of the Settlement Agreement and the transfer of the outstanding Convertible Bonds as contemplated thereunder are fair and reasonable so far as the Shareholders are concerned and are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF THE TRANSFER OF THE CONVERTIBLE BONDS

As of the date of this announcement, the outstanding Convertible Bonds and interests accrued and unpaid amounted to EUR5,000,000 (which is equivalent to approximately HK$47,050,000) and EUR250,000 (which is equivalent to approximately HK$2,352,500), respectively. The carrying amounts of Convertible Bonds' receivable measured at fair value amounted to HK$18,842,000 as of 31 December 2020.

Taking into account the carrying amount of the Convertible Bonds' receivable, the Group is expected to record a gain of approximately HK$2.3 million.
