REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE TRANSACTION

As elaborated above, the Project is under construction and development, requiring large capital investment from Tianjin CCCC Greentown from time to time. In December 2019, Tianjin CCCC Greentown issued the PCS to its shareholders to raise funds for the investment in the Project as it could lower the gearing ratio of Tianjin CCCC Greentown as compared with external loans, which could facilitate its future financing from banks and other institutions. Meanwhile, the subscription of the PCS provides the Group with long-term investment opportunities and expands its source of income. The Board believes the subscription by the Group is beneficial to the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.
