Depositary Shares ("ADSs") beneficially owned by others to forward to such
beneficial owners. The Company may reimburse persons representing beneficial

instructions. As the holder of record for all of the Shares represented by the
ADSs, only the Depositary may vote such Shares at the Annual General Meeting and
the Extraordinary General Meeting.

All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of election appointed for the
meeting, who will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes,
abstentions, broker non-votes and depositary non-votes. Abstentions will be
counted towards a quorum but will not be counted for any purpose in determining
whether a matter is approved. Broker non-votes and depositary non-votes will not
be counted towards a quorum or for any purpose in determining whether a matter
is approved.

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

There are ten nominees for the eleven Board positions presently authorized

resignation or removal. Each nominee listed below is currently a director of the
Company, and each director other than Christopher Guest was elected by the
Shareholders at the 1998 Annual General Meeting.

Shares represented by executed proxies will be voted, if authority to do so
is not withheld, for the election of the ten nominees named below. In the event
that any nominee should be unavailable for election as a result of an unexpected
occurrence, such shares will be voted for the election of such substitute
nominee as management may propose. Each person nominated for election has agreed
to serve if elected, and management has no reason to believe that any nominee
will be unable to serve.

PROPOSAL 3

AUTHORIZATION OF BOARD TO ISSUE ALL OR PART OF THE AUTHORIZED BUT UNISSUED
SHARES OF THE COMPANY IN SUCH MANNER AND TO SUCH PERSONS AS THEY SHALL IN THEIR
ABSOLUTE DISCRETION DEEM FIT, SUCH AUTHORIZATION TO LAPSE AT THE COMPANY'S NEXT
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

Unlike the laws of most states in the U.S., under Hong Kong corporate law a
corporation may not issue additional shares of its capital stock (unless the
issue is pro rata to its existing Shareholders) without the approval of its
Shareholders. In order to avoid calling an extraordinary general meeting each
time a corporation wishes to issue shares, Hong Kong corporate law permits the
Shareholders of the corporation to give general authorization to the
corporation's board of directors to issue authorized but unissued shares of that
company at such time and in such a manner as the board of directors may, in its
discretion, deems fit. Such general authorization automatically lapses at the
corporation's next annual general meeting.

Accordingly, the Shareholders are requested in this Proposal 3 to authorize
the Board to issue all or part of the authorized and unissued Shares, subject to
Section 57B of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance, in such manner and to such
persons as the Board may in their absolute discretion deem fit.

The Board recommends that the unissued shares of the Company be available
to the Board for issuance in their discretion in order to provide additional
flexibility to use its capital stock for business, investment and financial
purposes in the future. If this Proposal 3 is approved, the additional Shares
may be issued, without further shareholder approval, for any purpose recommended
by the board including, without limitation, raising capital, providing equity
incentives to employees, officers or directors, establishing strategic
relationships with other companies and expanding the Company's business or
product lines through the acquisition of other businesses or products.

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Shares present in
person or represented by proxy and voting at the meeting will be required to
approve this Proposal 3.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE IN FAVOR OF PROPOSAL 3.

PROPOSAL 4

RE-APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

The Board recommends that Arthur Andersen & Co. be re-appointed as the
Company's independent auditors for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2000. Arthur
Andersen & Co. has audited the Company's financial statements since 1994.
Representatives of Arthur Andersen & Co. are expected to be present at the
Annual General Meeting, will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so
desire, and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Shares present in
person or represented by proxy and voting at the Annual General Meeting will be
required to approve the selection of Arthur Andersen & Co.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE IN FAVOR OF PROPOSAL 4.

EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING PROPOSAL

PROPOSAL 1

APPROVAL OF THE REINCORPORATION OF THE COMPANY FROM
HONG KONG TO BERMUDA AND SPECIAL RESOLUTIONS
DESIGNED TO IMPLEMENT THE REINCORPORATION

GENERAL

The Board of Directors has approved, and recommends that the Shareholders
approve, a proposal whereby the Company will change its domicile from Hong Kong
to Bermuda (the "Reincorporation") and special resolutions designed to implement
the Reincorporation. It is proposed that the change in domicile be effected by
incorporating a Bermuda company of the same name with a nearly identical capital
structure to the Company ("Zindart Limited"), followed by a substitution or
exchange of Zindart Limited Shares for the Company Shares. At the conclusion of
several steps required to complete the change of domicile, the ADSs of the
Company traded on the Nasdaq National Market will represent shares of Zindart
Limited.

The Board of Directors of the Company believes that the Reincorporation
will allow the Company to avail itself of certain tax, financing and other
business advantages that are not available under Hong Kong law. In particular,
the Board recommends the Reincorporation for the following reasons: (1) Bermuda
law allows the Company significantly greater flexibility to repurchase its
Shares than it currently has under the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance; and (2)
the Company can avoid entirely stamp duty taxes payable on transfers of the
Company's Shares pursuant to Hong Kong law that unduly complicate transactions
involving Company Shares. Accordingly, the Board of Directors believes the
Reincorporation should have a favorable impact on the conduct of the Company's
future business operations.

A holder of Company Shares will, after the change in domicile, continue to
own, as a holder of Zindart Limited Shares, the same relative interest as such
holder did in the Company and will have the same relative voting rights as such
holder did in the Company. Shares of Zindart Limited will have substantially the
same attributes as Shares of the Company. See "Rights and Privileges of Zindart
Limited Shares" and "Comparison of the Rights of Shareholders."

The proposed Reincorporation will not result in any change in the conduct
of the Company's business, its assets or liabilities. The Reincorporation of the
Company will not cause its corporate headquarters to be moved and will not
result in any relocation of management and other employees.

If approved by the holders of at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the
voting Shares present in person or by proxy at the Extraordinary General
Meeting, it is anticipated that the Reincorporation will be completed as soon
thereafter as practicable.

RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES OF ZINDART LIMITED SHARES

VOTING

As is the case with the Company's Shares, the holders of Zindart Limited
Shares will be entitled to one vote per share. All actions submitted to a vote
of Shareholders shall be voted on by the holders of Zindart Limited Shares,
voting together as a single class, except as provided by law.

DIVIDENDS

As is the case with the Company Shares, holders of Zindart Limited Shares
will be entitled to participate, on a share for share basis, with the holders of
any other shares outstanding, with respect to any dividends declared by the
Board of Directors of Zindart Limited, subject to the rights of holders of
preference shares, if any. The Company has not paid cash dividends on Company
Shares. The Company currently does not intend to pay dividends and intends to
retain any earnings of Zindart Limited for use in its business and the financing
of its capital requirements for the foreseeable future. The payment of any
future cash dividends on the Zindart

6
11

Limited Shares will be necessarily dependent upon the earnings and financial
needs of Zindart Limited, along with applicable legal and contractual
restrictions.

LIQUIDATION

As is the case with the Company Shares, on a liquidation of Zindart
Limited, holders of Zindart Limited Shares will be entitled to receive any
assets remaining after the payment of Zindart Limited's debts and the expenses
of the liquidation, subject to such special rights as may be attached to any
other class of shares.

REDEMPTION

As is the case with the Company Shares, the Zindart Limited Shares will not
be subject to redemption either by Zindart Limited or the holder of such Shares.

NASDAQ TRADING

The Company's Shares represented by ADSs are currently traded on the Nasdaq
National Market ("Nasdaq") under the symbol "ZNDT" and, immediately following
the Reorganization, the Zindart Limited Shares will be represented by ADSs and
will be traded on Nasdaq under the same symbol.

TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The following is a brief summary of the material tax consequences of the
Reincorporation and the ownership and disposition of Zindart Limited Shares.

HONG KONG TAX CONSEQUENCES

In Hong Kong, income tax is charged against companies by way of profits
tax. Property tax, estate duty and stamp duty also may be applicable to
companies in Hong Kong. There is no capital gains tax in Hong Kong. For the
transfer of shares of a company whose register of shareholders/transfers is
located in Hong Kong, a stamp duty of HK$5 is charged on the instrument of
transfer and an ad valorem duty is charged at a rate of .25% on the higher of
the total consideration for the transfer or the net asset value of the shares in
question. Transfer of shares of a Bermudan company will not attract any stamp
duty in Hong Kong provided its register of shareholders/transfers is not located
in Hong Kong. After the completion of the Reincorporation, only shares in
Zindart Limited will be tradable. The register of stockholder/transfer of
Zindart Limited will not be physically located in Hong Kong. Accordingly, the
transfer of Company shares will no longer be subject to a stamp duty.

BERMUDA TAX CONSEQUENCES

At the present time, there is no Bermuda income or profits tax, withholding
tax, capital gains tax, capital transfer tax, estate duty or inheritance tax
payable by a Bermuda exempted company or its shareholders, other than
shareholders ordinarily resident in Bermuda. The Company will apply for and
expects to obtain an assurance from the Bermuda Minister of Finance under the
Exempted Undertakings Tax Protection Act 1966 that, in the event that any
legislation is enacted in Bermuda imposing any tax computed on profits or
income, or computed on any capital asset, gain or appreciation, or any tax in
the nature of estate duty or inheritance tax, such tax shall not until March 28,
2016 be applicable to the Company or to any of its operations or to the shares
or other obligations of the Company except insofar as such tax applies to
persons ordinarily resident in Bermuda and holding such shares or other
obligations of the Company or any land leased or let to the Company. Therefore,
there will be no Bermuda tax consequences (including any taxes imposed by way of
withholding) with respect to the sale or exchange of the Zindart Limited Shares
or with respect to distributions in respect of the Zindart Limited Shares. As an
exempted company, the Company is liable to pay in Bermuda an annual government
fee based upon its authorized share capital and the premium on its issued
shares.

STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS

If the Reincorporation is completed, all of the Company's employee benefit
plans, including the 1997 Equity Incentive Plan and amendments thereto will be
continued by Zindart Limited. Shareholder approval of the proposed
Reincorporation will constitute approval of the adoption and assumption of those
plans by Zindart Limited.

EXCHANGE OF SHARE CERTIFICATES

Certificates for Shares in the Company will be canceled and an equal number
of Shares in Zindart Limited will be issued upon completion of the
Reincorporation.

COMPARISON OF RIGHTS OF SHAREHOLDERS

The rights of Shareholders of the Company are governed by Hong Kong law and
the Company's Articles of Association. After the Reincorporation, the holders of
Company Shares will become holders of Zindart Limited Shares, and their rights
will be governed by the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda (the "Companies Act") and
Zindart Limited's Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws.

The principal attributes of the Company Shares and the Zindart Limited
Shares will be similar; however, there are certain differences between the
rights of shareholders under Hong Kong law and Bermuda law. In addition, there
are certain differences between the Company's and Zindart Limited's Memoranda of
Association and Bye-Laws. It is the intent of the Company that the rights of
Shareholders be substantially the same before and after the Reincorporation and,
accordingly, the principal differences will arise as a consequence of the
requirements of Bermuda law.

The following discussion is a summary of material changes in the rights of
Shareholders resulting from the Reincorporation. This summary does not purport
to be complete or to cover all of the respects in which Bermuda law may differ
from laws generally applicable to Hong Kong corporations and their shareholders
and, while the Company believes that this summary is accurate, this summary is
subject to the complete text of the relevant provisions of Hong Kong's Companies
Ordinance, the Companies Act, the Company's Articles of Association, and Zindart
Limited's Memorandum of Association and Bye-Laws.

ADVANCE NOTICE REQUIREMENTS FOR SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS AND DIRECTOR
NOMINATIONS

For companies registered in Hong Kong, shareholders holding at least 5% of
the total voting rights or totaling at least 100 shareholders holding shares on
which there has been paid up an average of at least HK$2,000 per shareholder may
require, at their own expense, the company to give notice of a resolution to be
considered at the company's next annual general meeting. The shareholders
requisition for a resolution must be deposited at the company's registered
office at least six weeks before the annual general meeting.

The Companies Act provides that shareholders totaling at least 100
shareholders or holding at least 5% of the total voting rights can, at their own
expense (unless the company otherwise resolves), require the company to give
notice of any resolution which such shareholders can properly propose (and
intend to propose) at the next annual general meeting of the company or to
circulate a statement prepared by such shareholders in respect of any matter
referred to in a proposed resolution or any business to be dealt with at a
general meeting.

DISTRIBUTIONS AND DIVIDENDS; REPURCHASES AND REDEMPTIONS

Under Hong Kong law, a company may declare dividends out of profits, which
constitute a company's accumulated realized profits less its accumulated
realized losses. Further, a distribution can only be made if the company's net
assets are equal to or greater in value than the total of its called-up share
capital and undistributable reserves and the distribution does not reduce the
assets to less than that total.

It is possible for a Hong Kong company to buy back its own shares. When
this is done (i) the shares must be fully paid; (ii) the buy-back must generally
be financed out of distributable profits or the proceeds of a new issue of
shares; (iii) the shares bought must be treated as canceled; (iv) the company's
issued share capital

8
13

will be reduced by the nominal value of the shares which are bought; and (v) the
buy-back does not reduce the company's authorized share capital.

Although the Companies Ordinance authorizes "on-market" repurchases, only
companies listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited may carry out such
repurchases. Although the Company is listed on Nasdaq, it is not listed on The
Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited.

Accordingly, the Company may buy back its own shares only under a contract
approved in advance by special resolution which also states that the proposed
contract may be varied, revoked or, from time to time, renewed by special
resolution. A copy of the contract, or a memorandum of its terms (if not in
writing) must be available for inspection by members both at the company's
registered office for at least 15 days prior to the meeting and at the meeting
itself. The names of the members affected by the proposed contract must also be
available for inspection. The special resolution will not, however, be effective
if any member holding shares to which the offer relates exercised his voting
rights, whether by voting on a poll, a show of hands, or by proxy, and the
resolution would not have been passed if he had not voted.

Under the Companies Act, the directors of Zindart Limited may declare
dividends out of profits of Zindart Limited available for that purpose or make
distributions out of contributed surplus as long as there are no reasonable
grounds for believing that Zindart Limited is, or after such dividend or
distribution would be, unable to pay its liabilities as they became due or that
the realizable value of Zindart Limited's assets would thereby be less than the
aggregate of its liabilities and its issued share capital and share premium
accounts. In addition, under the Companies Act, it is possible for a company to
repurchase its own shares. However, the funds for such a repurchase must be
either (i) capital paid-up on the shares in question; (ii) proceeds of a fresh
issue of shares made for the purposes of the repurchase, or (iii) funds which
would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution. Furthermore, any
premium which is payable on the repurchase must be provided out of funds which
would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or out of the
company's share premium account prior to the repurchase, and at least two
directors of the company must swear an affidavit of solvency (either at the time
of the repurchase or, in the case of a publicly listed company, within thirty
days after the end of the corresponding calendar quarter).

AMENDMENT OF CHARTER/MEMORANDUM

Under Hong Kong law, only certain alterations may be made to a company's
memorandum of association, including an alteration or amendment of the company's
objects (i.e., business purposes). These must be approved in a special
resolution by 75% of the shareholders entitled to vote at a general meeting. A
reorganization of the company's share capital may also require court approval in
addition to the passage of a special resolution.

Amendments to the memorandum of association of a Bermuda company must be
approved by a majority of the shareholders voting on the amendment, and
amendments to the company's objects (i.e., business purposes) may require
approval by the Bermuda Minister of Finance.

AMENDMENT OF BYLAWS/ARTICLES

Under Hong Kong law, a company may amend or add to its articles by special
resolution approved by 75% of shareholders entitled to vote at a general
meeting.

Under the Companies Act, the bye-laws may only be amended by a resolution
of the Board and a resolution of the shareholders approved by a majority of the
shareholders voting on the amendment.

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

The Companies Act and Hong Kong law have different provisions and
limitations regarding indemnification by a corporation of its officers,
directors, employees and agents. The following is a summary comparison of
Companies Act and Hong Kong law indemnification provisions.

9
14

Under Hong Kong law, any provision contained in a company's articles, or in
any contract with the company or otherwise, exempting any officer of the company
from, or indemnifying him or them against, any liability for negligence,
default, breach of duty, or breach of trust, is void. A company is permitted to
indemnify its officers against the costs incurred by them in defending any
proceedings, civil or criminal, in which judgment is given in their favour or in
which they are acquitted.

Under Bermuda law, a company is permitted to indemnify any officer or
director, out of the funds of the company, against (i) any liability incurred by
him or her in defending any proceedings, whether civil or criminal, in which
judgment is given in his or her favor, or in which he or she is acquitted, or in
connection with any application under relevant Bermuda legislation in which
relief from liability is granted to him or her by the court; and (ii) any loss
or liability resulting from negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of
trust, save for his or her fraud and dishonesty. The Bye-laws of Zindart Limited
will indemnify the officers, directors and employees of Zindart Limited to the
fullest extent permitted by law.

LIABILITY OF DIRECTORS

Under Hong Kong law, directors owe a common law duty of care to the company
which requires that the directors not act negligently in the exercise of their
powers. If the directors of a company are negligent in the performance of their
duties as directors, they will be liable to the company for the damage caused by
their negligence. Directors also owe a fiduciary duty to the company which
require them to (i) act in a bona fide manner for the benefit of the company;
(ii) to exercise their powers for proper purposes; and (iii) not to allow any
conflict between their duties as directors and their personal interests. Any
provision contained in the company articles, or in any contract with the company
or otherwise, exempting any officer of the company from, or indemnifying him or
her against, any liability for negligence, default, breach of duty, or breach of
trust, is void.

Under Bermuda law, a director must observe the statutory duty of care which
requires such director to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best
interests of the company and exercise the care, diligence and skill that a
reasonably prudent person would exercise in comparable circumstances. Directors
are also subject to common law fiduciary duties which require directors to act
in what they reasonably believe to be the best interests of the company and for
proper purposes. Bermuda law renders void any provision of the bye-laws or any
contract between a company and any such director exempting him or her from or
indemnifying him or her against any liability in respect of any fraud or
dishonesty of which he or she may be guilty in relation to the company. The
Zindart Limited Bye-laws will provide, that the Shareholders agree to waive any
claim against any director or officer provided that such waiver shall not extend
to any matter regarding fraud or dishonesty of such director or officer for any
breach of his or her duties.

INTERESTED DIRECTOR TRANSACTIONS

Under Hong Kong law, a company cannot directly or indirectly, (i) make a
loan to a director of the company or its holding company; (ii) enter into any
guarantee or provide any security in connection with a loan made by any person
to a director of the company or its holding company; or (iii) if any director of
the company holds a controlling interest in another company, make a loan to that
controlled company, or enter into any guarantee or provide security in
connection with a loan made by any person to that controlled company. Where a
director is in any way directly or indirectly interested in a contract or
proposed contract with the company, the director must declare the nature of his
or her interest at the earliest meeting of the directors at which it is
practicable to do so.

Under the Companies Act, without the consent of the holders of shares
carrying at least nine-tenths of the total voting rights or in certain limited
instances, a company may not make a loan to or enter into any guarantee or
provide security in respect of any loan made to any person who is a director (or
certain related persons or companies) of such company or its holding company. In
addition, a director who has an interest in any material contract or proposed
material contract (or in any person that is a party to such contract) with the
company or any of its subsidiaries and fails to disclose such interest at the
first opportunity at a meeting of the directors or by writing to the directors
commits a breach of such director's duty under Bermuda law.

15

SHAREHOLDERS' SUITS

Under Hong Kong law, statutory provisions provide safeguards to ensure that
the company's powers are not being abused. Particularly, any shareholder of a
company can petition to the court for an order on the grounds that the affairs
of the company are being or have been conducted in a manner that is unfairly
prejudicial to the interest of the shareholders generally, himself or herself
included. Additionally, the courts will allow an individual shareholder to bring
an action against a company (i) to enforce the shareholder's own rights under a
contract with the company such as when the company has acted ultra vires, or
when those in control have not acted in accordance with the company's memorandum
and articles; (ii) where a right has been infringed which affects all or a
number of shareholders in a similar way -- in this case an individual may bring
a representative action and the company will be joined as the defendant to be
bound by the judgment; or (iii) where the alleged wrongdoers are in control of
the company so that it is impossible for the company to bring an action in its
own name (fraud on the minority) -- in this case an individual member may bring
a derivative action in the name of the company.

The Bermuda courts ordinarily would be expected to permit a shareholder to
commence a derivative action in the name of the company to remedy a wrong done
to the company only (i) where the act complained of is alleged to be beyond the
corporate power of the company or illegal; (ii) where the act complained of is
alleged to constitute a fraud against the minority shareholders by those
controlling the company; provided that the majority shareholders have used their
controlling position to prevent the company from taking action against the
wrongdoers; (iii) where an act requires approval by a greater percentage of the
company's shareholders than actually approved it; or (iv) where the act
complained of constitutes an infringement of individual rights of shareholders.

SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL OF BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

Under Hong Kong law, an amalgamation between two or more Hong Kong
companies is permitted if 75% of the shareholders, present and voting either in
person or by proxy at a meeting, agree to the amalgamation. Such amalgamation
must also be sanctioned by the court. If a proposed amalgamation involves the
variation of class rights, holders of not less than 10 per cent in nominal value
of the issued shares of the class may apply to the court to have the variation
canceled.

Under Hong Kong law, if within four months of making an offer to buy shares
the company has acquired 90 per cent in value of the shares, the acquiring
company may give notice to the remaining shareholders that it desires to acquire
their shares. Provided that notice is given within five months of the original
offer, the company is entitled and bound to acquire those shares on the same
terms as the offer. Within two months of receiving such notice, an application
may be made to the court for an order that the acquiring company is not entitled
to the shares or for an order varying the terms of the acquisition. If there is
no such application, two months from the date of notice the transferor must
register the acquiring company as holder of those shares on the terms of the
offer.

Where the acquiring company is the holder of 90 per cent in value of all
the shares or a class of shares of the transferor company then, provided that
the original offer period has not expired, a holder of the shares of the same
class who has not accepted the offer may by letter addressed to the acquiring
company require the acquiring company to acquire its shares. Within one month of
the expiration of the original offer the acquiring company must give notice to
all the persons who have the right to be bought out, calling on them to decide
whether or not to exercise the right. A shareholder cannot require the company
to purchase his shares later than two months after the date of that notice.

Bermuda law permits an amalgamation between two or more Bermuda companies
(or between one or more Bermuda exempted companies and one or more foreign
corporations) subject to obtaining a vote of three-fourths of the shareholders
of each such company and each class of such shares present and voting in person
or by proxy at a meeting called for that purpose at which the quorum shall be
one-third of the issued shares of the company or the class, as the case may be,
unless the bye-laws otherwise provide. Each share carries the right to vote in
respect of an amalgamation, whether or not it otherwise carries the right to
vote.

11
16

Bermuda law also provides that where an offer is made for shares in a
company by another company and, within four months of the offer, the holders of
not less than 90% in value of the shares which are the subject of the offer
accept, the offeror may by notice, given within two months after the expiration
of the said four months, require the dissenting shareholders to transfer their
shares on the terms of the offer. Dissenting shareholders may apply to a court
within one month of such notice objecting to the transfer and the court may give
such order as it thinks fit.

APPRAISAL RIGHTS

Under Hong Kong law, any shareholder of a company may apply to the court
for an order on the grounds that the affairs of the company are being or have
been conducted in a manner which is unfairly prejudicial to the interests of the
shareholders generally. If following such application an order is made for the
transfer of shares to the majority shareholders or the company itself, an
application can also be made to the courts to have the fair value of the
relevant shares appraised.

Under Bermuda law, a dissenting shareholder of a company participating in
an amalgamation (other than an amalgamation between a company and its
wholly-owned subsidiary or between two or more subsidiaries of the same holding
company) may apply to the court to appraise the fair value of his or her shares.

INSPECTION OF BOOKS AND RECORDS

Under Hong Kong law, various registers and documents must be kept at the
company's registered address (or such other place the company has notified the
Registrar of companies) including (i) the register of debenture holders; (ii)
the register of shareholders; (iii) the register of charges and copies of
instruments creating the charges; (iv) the register of directors and
secretaries; and (v) the minutes of the proceedings of general meetings and
meetings of the directors. The general public has a right to inspect the
register of shareholders and the register of directors and secretaries for a
small fee. Shareholders may inspect these registers without payment of any fee.
Shareholders and creditors may inspect the register of charges and copies of
instruments creating such charges free of charge and any other person may
inspect the same for a small fee. Any shareholders may inspect the books
containing the minutes of proceedings of any general meeting of a company
without charge.

Bermuda law provides the general public with a right of inspection of a
Bermuda company's public documents at the office of the Registrar of Companies
in Bermuda, and provides a Bermuda company's shareholders with a right of
inspection of such company's bye-laws, minutes of shareholders' general meetings
and audited financial statements. The register of shareholders is also open to
inspection by shareholders free of charge and, upon payment of a small fee, by
any other person. A Bermuda company is required to maintain its share register
in Bermuda but may establish a branch register outside of Bermuda. A Bermuda
company is required to keep at its registered office a register of its directors
and officers which is open for inspection by shareholders of the public without
charge.

REMOVAL OF DIRECTORS; VACANCIES ON THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Under Hong Kong law, a company may by special resolution at a general
meeting (of which not less than 21 days notice specifying the proposed
resolution) remove a director before the expiration of his or her term of office
notwithstanding anything in the memorandum, articles, or in any agreement
between such director and the company. When a company receives notice of an
intended resolution to remove a director, it must send a copy to the director
concerned. The director is entitled to be heard on the resolution at the
meeting, even if he or she is not a shareholder of the company, and may also
make a written statement and request its notification to all shareholders. The
law also provides that to ensure that a director who is also a shareholder
cannot remain in office against the wishes of the majority of shareholders, no
share may carry weighted voting rights -- that is, a greater number of votes on
a resolution to remove a director than it would carry in relation to the general
matters to be voted on at a general meeting. Vacancies may be filled at a
general meeting by the election of another director by ordinary resolution where
a simple majority of those attending the meeting (in person or

12
17

by proxy) vote in favor of the appointment. A company's articles may also grant
the directors the power to fill any casual vacancy and to make additional
appointments.

Under the Companies Act, the members of a company may, at a special meeting
called for that purpose, remove a director provided that (unless the bye-laws
otherwise provide) such director must receive at least fourteen days notice of
such meeting and is entitled to be heard at such meeting. A vacancy created by
the removal of a director at a special general meeting may be filled at that
meeting by the election of another director in his or her place or in the
absence of any such election by the other directors. Under the Bye-laws of
Zindart Limited, vacancies and (with the authorization of the shareholders in
general meeting) newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the
authorized number of directors may be filled by the Board of Directors, and the
directors so chosen shall hold office until the next annual election and until
their successors are duly elected and shall qualify, unless sooner removed.

BERMUDA MONETARY AUTHORITY PERMISSION

The permission of the Bermuda Monetary Authority ("BMA") will be required
under the Exchange Control Act 1972 (and regulations made thereunder) for the
issuance of Shares of Zindart Limited, the issue of ADSs in relation to the
Shares and the subsequent transfer of such Shares and ADSs. Permission will be
sought for the transfer of ADSs by persons deemed non-Bermuda residents for
Bermuda exchange control purposes for so long as ADSs remain listed on Nasdaq.
The Company expects to obtain such permission prior to the Reincorporation.

SPECIAL RESOLUTIONS

In connection with the Reincorporation, as described in this Proxy
Statement, the Board of Directors recommends that the Shareholders approve the
following special resolutions designed to implement the Reincorporation:

(b) each of the 6,853,042 unissued shares of HK$0.50 of the Company and the
two shares of HK$0.50 of the Company held by the Holding Company and
the nominee of the Holding Company is hereby designated as an "ordinary
share";

(c) the Articles of Association of the Company be and are hereby amended by
inserting the following new article immediately after the existing
Articles thereof:

"123

(a) the authorized share capital of the Company at the date of the
adoption of this Article is HK$7,500,000 divided into 6,853,044
ordinary shares of HK$0.50 each and 8,146,956 non-voting deferred
shares of HK$0.50 each;

(b) the holders of non-voting deferred shares shall be entitled to
receive a fixed non-cumulative dividend at the rate of five per cent
per annum for any financial year of the Company in which

13
18

the net profits of the Company available for dividend (as certified
by the auditors of the Company, whose decision shall be final and
binding) exceed HK$100,000,000,000,000;

(c) in the event of any winding up of the Company, the holders of the
non-voting deferred shares shall be entitled out of the surplus
assets of the Company equal to the capital paid up on the non-voting
deferred shares held by them respectively after a total sum of
HK$100,000,000,000,000 has been distributed in such an occurrence to
each of the issued ordinary shares of the Company and an amount
equal to declared but unpaid dividends on such shares;

(d) except as otherwise provided in this Article 123, the holders of the
non-voting deferred shares shall not be entitled to any
participation in the profits or assets of the Company;

(e) the holders of the non-voting deferred shares shall not be entitled
to receive notice of, attend or vote at any general meeting of the
Company by virtue of their holdings of such non-voting deferred
shares or any reference in these Articles to the voting rights of
members; the term "member" shall not include any holder of a
non-voting deferred share solely by reason of the holding of such
share; and

The affirmative vote of the holders of seventy-five percent (75%) of the
Shares present in person or represented by proxy and voting at the Extraordinary
General Meeting will be required to approve this Proposal 1 of the Extraordinary
General Meeting.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE IN FAVOR OF PROPOSAL 1 OF THE
EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING.

the date of grant. The options of the other identified individuals became
exercisable in installments of 25% per year beginning on the date of grant.

Common Stock from the date of the option grant appreciates at cumulative
annual rates of 5% and 10%, respectively, over the term of the option. The
assumed rates of 5% and 10% were established by the Securities and Exchange
Commission and therefore do not forecast possible future appreciation of the
Common Stock.

SERVICE AGREEMENTS

The Company has entered into service agreements with each of Mr. Alex Ngan,
Mr. Tony D. H. Lai, Mr. C. W. Ng, and Ms. Feather S. Y. Fok. Generally, these
service agreements are dated October 1, 1998 and shall continue thereafter
unless and until terminated by either the employer or the employee giving to the
other not less than three months' written notice. These service agreements
provide for an annual bonus to be determined by the Board.

REPORT OF COMPENSATION COMMITTEE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Company applies a consistent philosophy to compensation for all
employees, including senior management. It is based on the premise that
achievements of the Company result from the coordinated efforts of all
individuals working toward common objectives focused on meeting customer and
shareholder expectations.

The goals of the Company's compensation program are to align compensation
with business objectives and performance while enabling the Company to attract,
retain and reward employees who contribute to the long-term success of the
Company. In all cases, attention is given to fairness in the administration of
compensation and to assuring that all employees understand the related
performance evaluation and administrative process.

The Company's compensation program for executive officers is based on the
principles described above and it is administered by the Compensation Committee.
There were no interlocking or other type of relationships affecting the
independence of the committee members during the fiscal year ended March 31,
1999.

The Company's executive compensation is intended to be consistent with
leading companies in the Company's industry while being contingent upon the
Company's achievement of near- and long-term objectives and goals. For the
fiscal year ended March 31, 1999, the principal measures the Compensation
Committee looked to in evaluating the Company's progress towards these
objectives and goals were growth in revenues, net profits and customer
satisfaction. The Company's executive compensation is based on four components,
each of which is intended to serve the overall compensation philosophy.

BASE SALARY

Base salary is targeted toward the middle to the top of the range
established by comparable manufacturing companies in the People's Republic of
China and Hong Kong. Base salaries are reviewed annually to ensure that the
Company's salaries are competitive within the target range.

18
23

MERIT INCREASE

Merit increases are designed to encourage management to perform at
consistently high levels. Salaries for executives are reviewed by the
Compensation Committee on an annual basis and may be increased at that time
based on the Compensation Committee's agreement that the individual's overall
contribution to the Company merits recognition. The salary adjustments reflected
in the Summary Compensation Table were also affected, in the case of executive
officers other than the Chief Executive Officer, by the evaluation of individual
contributions to the Company as provided to the Compensation Committee by the
Chief Executive Officer.

BONUSES

Bonuses for executives are intended to be used as an incentive to encourage
management to perform at a high level or to recognize a particular contribution
by an employee or exceptional Company performance. Generally, the higher the
employee's level of job responsibility, the larger the portion of the
individual's compensation package that may be represented by a bonus. As is
customary in Hong Kong and the People's Republic of China, the range of possible
bonus amounts are determined upon commencement of employment. See "-- Service
Agreements." The actual bonus amount must be approved by the Chief Executive
Officer and the Compensation Committee in the case of executives other than the
Chief Executive Officer and by the Compensation Committee alone in the case of
the Chief Executive Officer. In determining the bonus element of compensation,
the Compensation Committee places particular emphasis on the Company's
performance against the management objectives and goals described above.

STOCK OPTIONS

The Compensation Committee believes that stock ownership by management is
beneficial in aligning management and shareholder interests with respect to
enhancing shareholder value. Stock options are also used to retain executives
and motivate them to improve long-term stock market performance. Stock options
are granted at the prevailing market value and will only have value if the
Company's stock price increases. Generally, stock option grants vest 25% per
year over four years.

The Compensation Committee determines the number of options to be granted
based upon the competitive marketplace, with a particular focus on determining
what level of equity incentive is necessary to retain a particular individual.
Outstanding historical performance by an individual is additionally recognized
through larger than normal option grants.

STOCK OPTION REPRICING PROGRAM

On December 15, 1998, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors
approved a stock option repricing program. Under the program, each holder of
stock options granted under the Company's 1997 Equity Incentive Plan, including
directors and Named Executive Officers, was entitled to exchange his or her
existing stock option for a repriced stock option to purchase the same number of
shares at an exercise price of $6.75 per share. The new exercise price was lower
than the exercise price under all of the existing stock options and was higher
than the then market price of $6.25 per share of Common Stock. Other than the
lower exercise price, each new stock option issued under the repricing program
has terms substantially equivalent to the terms of the surrendered option,
including the same number of shares and expiration date. Options to purchase a
total of 557,000 shares of Common Stock were eligible to participate in the
program, all of which were exchanged by the holders thereof for repriced stock
options.

The Compensation Committee approved the stock option repricing program as a
result of the significant reduction in the price of the Company's Common Stock
in the fiscal year ended March 31, 1999. The Committee determined that the
Company's existing stock options no longer provided meaningful incentive to the
option holders to remain in the employ of the Company and to maximize
shareholder value. The existing stock options had exercise prices of $9.13 per
share or $14.25 per share, which exercise prices exceeded the trading prices of
the Company's Common Stock for a substantial majority of fiscal 1999 prior to
the date the option repricing program was approved. The Committee determined
that the exchange of new stock options
19
24

with a lower exercise price for the Company's existing stock options would once
again provide incentive to the Company's officers, directors and employees to
continue to provide services to the Company and to maximize shareholder value.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

The Compensation Committee uses the same philosophy described above with
respect to other executive officers in setting the compensation for the Chief
Executive Officer.

PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT COMPARISON

Set forth below is a line graph comparing (a) the cumulative total
shareholder return of an investment of $100 in cash on March 4, 1997, the date
of the Company's initial public offering of ADSs, in the Company's ADSs, based
on its initial public offering price, with (b) the Standard and Poor's Small Cap
600 Index and (c) the Russell 2000 Index. All values assume reinvestment of the
full amount of all dividends and are calculated as of March 31 of each year.
This graph assumes that the value of the investment in the Company's Shares was
$100 on March 4, 1997 and was $100 on February 28, 1997 for each of the
comparison groups.

CERTAIN RELATIONS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

THE HUA YANG ACQUISITION

In February 1998, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement with Hua
Yang Holdings Co., Ltd. ("Parent"), Hua Yang Printing Holdings Co., Limited
("Subsidiary"), HYP Holdings Limited ("HYP"), Karl Chan (BVI) Holdings Limited
("Chan Holdings"), Karl K. W. Chan ("Chan") (HYP Chan Holdings and Chan are
sometimes hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Hua Yang Shareholders"),
certain investment funds operated by China Vest and Advent that are Shareholders
of HYP (the "Principal HYP Shareholders") and China Vest Management Limited, as
the Agent on behalf of the Hua Yang Shareholders and the Principal HYP
Shareholders. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Hua Yang Shareholders
exchanged all of Parent's outstanding ordinary shares and preferred shares for
$35.0 million in cash and up to 1,000,000 Shares (collectively, the "Acquisition
Consideration"), thereby resulting in the Company's acquisition of Parent and
Subsidiary (the "Hua Yang Acquisition").

Of the 1,000,000 Shares, 666,667 were reserved for issuance at the closing
of the Hua Yang Acquisition and placed in escrow for a period of six months to
secure certain indemnification obligations under the Exchange Agreement.
Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, 333,333 Shares remained unissued until
completion of an independent audit of Hua Yang's financial results for the
two-year period ending March 31, 1999. Upon completion of the audit, a portion
of such Shares were to be issued to the extent that Hua Yang's earnings before
interest expense (net of interest income), provision (benefit) for income taxes,
depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") for such two-year period exceeded
$12.48 million. All of such Shares were to be issued if Hua Yang's EBITDA for
such two-year period equaled or exceeded $15.6 million (the "Earn-Out
Requirements"). Because Hua Yang did not meet the Earn-Out Requirements as of
March 31, 1999, the Company has not issued and will not issue the remaining
333,333 shares. As of March 31, 1999, the Company was still in the process of
issuing the 666,667 Shares.

The Exchange Agreement contains detailed representations, warranties and
covenants by each of Subsidiary, Parent, the Hua Yang Shareholders and the
Principal HYP Shareholders relating to the business, assets and financial
condition of subsidiary and Parent, including the joint ventures Shenzhen
Huaxuan Printing Product Co., Ltd. and Guangzhou Jin Yi Advertising Company Ltd.
The representations and warranties terminate on the second anniversary of the
closing date. Each of the Hua Yang Shareholders and the Principal HYP
Shareholders is jointly and severally liable for the accuracy of such
representations and warranties up to a maximum amount equal to the pro rata
portion of the Acquisition Consideration received by such Hua Yang Shareholder
(plus its portion of certain permitted redemptions of Parent preferred shares
prior to the closing) or Principal HYP Shareholder. Generally, no claim may be
made against any of the Hua Yang Shareholders and Principal HYP Shareholders in
respect of a breach of a representation or warranty until the aggregate amount
of all claims exceed $2.0 million. Certain representations and warranties,
including those involving due organization and valid existence, capitalization,
parent's financial statements, bank accounts, real property, tax matters,
employee benefit plans and related party transactions, are not subject to this
deductible threshold.

Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Hua Yang Shareholders agreed that
for a period of two years from the closing date, they would not directly or
indirectly engage in the business of manufacturing or selling die-cast,
injection-molded products, hand-made books, specialty packaging and other paper
products or any similar business in Hong Kong, the PRC and other countries.
Zindart also granted certain demand registration rights in connection with the
Shares (or ADSs issuable upon exchange thereof) issued or to be issued as part
of the Acquisition Consideration. Such Shares were issued pursuant to exemptions
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Regulation
S and Regulation D thereunder.

Zindart financed $30.0 million of the cash portion of Acquisition
Consideration and related fees and expenses from a credit facility syndicated by
Credit Suisse First Boston, Singapore Branch (the "Credit Facility"). The
remaining cash was provided from Zindart's working capital. The Company fully
repaid its obligations under the Credit Facility in February 1999.

OTHER TRANSACTIONS

Rental expenses paid to Mr. Chan for the twelve months ended fiscal 1999,
fiscal 1998, fiscal 1997, fiscal 1996 and fiscal 1995 were $338,000, $338,000,
$338,000, $338,000 and $176,000, respectively. These rental payments are made by
Hua Yang's PRC joint venture subsidiary for leasing a portion of the Shenzhen
Facility in which Mr. Chan has a partial interest.

Mr. Chan has received compensation as an employee from Hua Yang as follows:
$323,415 for the period from April 1, 1995 to March 31, 1996; and $258,732 for
the period from April 1, 1996 to March 31, 1997, $150,732 for the period from
April 1, 1997 to March 31, 1998; and $21,505 for the period from April 1, 1998
to December 1998, when his employment with Hua Yang ceased.

The Company has agreed to pay ChinaVest an amount of $500,000 for
management services during calendar year 1999.

The Company intends that all future transactions with affiliates will be
approved by a committee of disinterested directors.
