Note 1:

This figure represents the total gross rental income for the rental period commencing 1 August 2019 to

31 December 2019. As the aforesaid period consists of a 2-month rent free period from 1 August 2019 to

30 September 2019, the monthly rental income for the occupation period from 1 October to 31 December 2019

is the same as that for 2020, 2021 and 2022.

Note 2:

This represents the annual gross rental income for the relevant year.

Note 3:

This figure represents the total gross rental income for the rental period commencing 1 January 2022 to 31 July

2022. As the aforesaid period consists of a 1-month rent free period from 1 July 2022 to 31 July 2022, the

monthly rental income for the occupation period from 1 January to 30 June 2022 is the same as that for 2019,

2020 and 2021.

Note 4:

The Existing 35F Teem Tower Tenancy will be expired by 20 July 2021 and the Existing 42F and 45F Teem

Tower Tenancy will be expired by 30 September 2020.

The current monthly management fee under the Tenancy Agreements is charged at the rate of RMB32 per month per square meter (including tax). The charging rate of the management fee is determined with reference to the market rate of similar office buildings and relevant costs. The other expenses are determined by reference to the charging rates of the respective utilities as set by the government or the utilities suppliers, the market rates of the parking fees and overtime air conditioning fees, the relevant labor and equipment costs.

As the management fees and other expenses are determined based on the same charging rates of the respective services or utilities for all the other tenants of Teem Tower being independent third parties to the Group, the Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) are of the view that the management fees and other expenses are fair and reasonable, on normal commercial terms and in the interest of the Company and its shareholders as a whole.
