LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Pursuant to the Notice, the Enterprise Income Tax Law and the Implementation Rules of the laws of PRC, the Company is required to withhold 10% enterprise income tax when it distributes the Proposed Dividend to its non-resident enterprise Shareholders. In respect of all Shareholders whose names appear on the Company's register of members on the Record Date who are not individuals (including HKSCC Nominees Limited, corporate nominees or trustees such as securities companies and banks, and other entities or organisations, which are all considered as non-resident enterprise Shareholders), the Company will distribute the Proposed Dividend after deducting enterprise income tax of 10%. The Company will not withhold and pay the income tax in respect of the Proposed Dividend payable to any natural person Shareholders whose names appear on the Company's register of members on the Record Date.

If any resident enterprise (as defined in the PRC's Enterprise Income Tax Law) listed on the Company's register of members which is duly incorporated in the PRC or under the laws of a foreign country (or a region) but with a PRC-basedde-facto management body, does not desire to have the Company withhold the said 10% enterprise income tax, it should lodge with the Company's Registrar, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited, documents from its governing tax authority confirming that the Company is not required to withhold and pay enterprise income tax in respect of the Proposed Dividend that it is entitled at or before 4 : 30 p.m. on Thursday, 3 June 2021.

Investors should read the above carefully. If anyone would like to change the identity of the holders in the register of members, please enquire about the relevant procedures with the nominees or trustees. The Company will withhold for payment of the enterprise income tax for its non-resident enterprise Shareholders strictly in accordance with the relevant laws and requirements of the relevant government departments and adhere strictly to the information set out in the Company's register of members on the Record Date. The Company assumes no liability whatsoever and will not entertain any claims arising from any delay in, or inaccurate confirmation of, the status of the Shareholders or any disputes over the mechanism of withholding.

The Nomination Committee has also evaluated the past performance, skills, backgrounds, knowledge and experiences of Mr. Pun Tit Shan and found his performance satisfactory. Mr. Pun Tit Shan had a good attendance record and made valuable contribution at the meetings of the Board and the Board Committees in the past years. The Nomination Committee is of the view that Mr. Pun Tit Shan would be able to continue to devote sufficient time to the Board and the nomination of Mr. Pun Tit Shan is made in accordance with the nomination policy with due regard to the diversity perspectives set out in the board diversity policy of the Company. The Board, through the assessment and recommendation by the Nomination Committee, considered Mr. Pun Tit Shan as independent for the purpose of acting as independent non- executive directors of the Company, and he would be able to continue to devote sufficient time to the Board.

Therefore, upon the nomination of the Nomination Committee, the Board has recommended Mr. Pun Tit Shan to stand for re-election as independent non-executive Director at the Annual General Meeting.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

9. PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES FOR THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

In view of the ongoing epidemic caused by novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) and recent requirements for prevention and control of its spread, the Company will implement the following precautionary measures at the AGM against the epidemic to protect attending Shareholders, staff and other stakeholders from the risk of infection:

  1. compulsory body temperature checks will be conducted on every Shareholder and proxy and other attendee at the entrance of the AGM venue. Any person with a body temperature of over 37.4 degrees Celsius will not be denied entry into the AGM venue or be required to leave the AGM venue;
  2. every attendee is required to wear a surgical facial mask before he/she is permitted to attend, and throughout his/her attendance of the AGM at all times; and
  3. no refreshment will be served, and no souvenirs will be distributed.

Any person who does not comply with the precautionary measures may be denied entry into the AGM venue.

In the interest of Shareholder's health and safety and consistent with recent COVID-19 guidelines for prevention and control, the Company reminds all Shareholders that physical attendance in person at the AGM is not necessary for the purpose of exercising voting rights. As an alternative, by using proxy forms with voting instructions inserted, Shareholders may consider appointing the chairman of the AGM as his/her proxy to vote on the relevant resolutions at the AGM instead of attending the AGM in person.

10. RECOMMENDATION

The Board is of the opinion that the granting of the Share Issue Mandate and the Share Repurchase Mandate, the re-appointment of the auditor and the re-election of the Directors are in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders. Accordingly, the Directors recommend the Shareholders to vote in favour of all the relevant resolutions to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting.

Yours faithfully,

For and on behalf of the Board

Zhang Xin

Chairman and Executive Director

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR

SHARE REPURCHASE MANDATE

The following is the explanatory statement required to be sent to the Shareholders under the Listing Rules in connection with the proposed Share Repurchase Mandate, which also constitutes the memorandum under sections 238 to 241 of the Companies Ordinance.

(a) LISTING RULES

The Listing Rules permit companies with a primary listing on the Stock Exchange to repurchase their fully-paid up shares on the Stock Exchange subject to certain restrictions.

(b) SHAREHOLDERS' APPROVAL

The Listing Rules provide that all on-market share repurchases by a company with its primary listing on the Stock Exchange must be approved in advance by an ordinary resolution, either by specific approval of a particular transaction or by a general mandate to the directors of the company to make such repurchases.

  1. EXERCISE OF THE SHARE REPURCHASE MANDATE

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were 1,113,423,000 Shares in issue. Subject to the passing of the ordinary resolution approving the Share Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or no Shares are repurchased prior to the Annual General Meeting, the Company would be allowed under the Share Repurchase Mandate to repurchase a maximum of 111,342,300 Shares.

(d) REASONS FOR THE REPURCHASE OF SHARES

The Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders for the Directors to have a general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Company to repurchase the Shares in the market. Such repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, enhance the net value of our Company, its assets and/or earnings per Share and will only be made where the Directors believe that such repurchases will benefit the Company and the Shareholders.

  1. SOURCE OF FUNDS

Repurchases pursuant to the Share Repurchase Mandate would be financed entirely from the Company's available cash flow or working capital facilities. Any repurchases will only be funded out of funds of the Company legally available for the purposes in accordance with the Articles of Association and the applicable laws of Hong Kong.

Whilst the Share Repurchase Mandate, if exercised in full, may have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company, the Directors expect to exercise such mandate if and to such extent only as they are satisfied that the exercise thereof will not have such a material adverse impact.

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR

SHARE REPURCHASE MANDATE

(h) THE TAKEOVERS CODES

If, as a result of a repurchase of Shares by the Company, a Shareholder's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purpose of Takeovers Codes. Accordingly, a Shareholder, or group of Shareholders acting in concert, could, depending on the level of increase of shareholding interest, obtain or consolidate control of the Company or become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Codes.

As at the Latest Practicable Date and to the best of knowledge and belief of the Company, the following persons were directly or indirectly interested in 10% or more of the number of issued Shares that carry a right to vote in all circumstances at general meetings of the Company:

In the event that the Directors exercised in full the power to repurchase Shares in accordance with the terms of the Share Repurchase Mandate (if granted by the Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting), the interests of China Foods (Holdings) Limited in the number of Shares in issue (subject to adjustment in the case of subdivision and consolidation of Shares) as at the Latest Practicable Date would be increased to approximately 33.00% and such increase would give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Codes. The Directors have no present intention to exercise the Share Repurchase Mandate to such an extent that will result in a requirement of the above Shareholders, or any other persons to make a general offer under the Takeovers Code or the number of Shares in the hands of the public falling below the prescribed minimum percentage of 25%.

Save as the above, the Directors are not aware of any consequences which would arise under the Takeovers Codes as a consequence of any repurchases pursuant to the Share Repurchase Mandate.

  1. SHARES PURCHASED BY THE COMPANY

No repurchases of Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) have been made by the Company in the six months preceding the Latest Practicable Date.

APPENDIX III

PROCEDURES FOR POLL VOTING

Pursuant to Article 65 of the Articles of Association, all resolutions set out in the notice of the Annual General Meeting shall be decided by poll.

Pursuant to Article 71 of the Articles of Association, subject to any special rights or restrictions as to voting for the time being attached to any Shares and to the provisions of the Articles of Association, every Shareholder who (being an individual) is present in person or by proxy or (being a corporation) is present by a duly authorised representative or proxy, shall have one vote for every Share of which he/she is the holder.

A Shareholder present in person or by proxy or by authorised representative who is entitled to more than one vote does not have to use all his/her votes (ie, he/she can cast less votes than the number of Shares he/she holds or represents) or to cast all his/her votes the same way (ie, he/she can cast some of his/her votes in favour of the resolution and some of his/her votes against the resolution). It is believed that in most situations, Shareholders (other than nominee companies) usually cast all their votes either in favour of a resolution or against a resolution.

The poll voting slip will be distributed to Shareholders or their proxies or authorized representatives upon registration of attendance at the Annual General Meeting. Shareholders who want to cast all their votes entitled may mark a '''' in either ''FOR'' or ''AGAINST'' box corresponding to the resolution to indicate whether he/she supports that resolution. For Shareholders who do not want to use all their votes or want to split votes in casting a particular resolution shall indicate the number of votes cast on a particular resolution in the ''FOR'' or ''AGAINST'' box, where appropriate, but the total votes cast must not exceed his/her entitled votes, or otherwise, the voting slip will be spoiled and the Shareholder's vote will not be counted.
