SUBSCRIPTION OF FINANCIAL PRODUCTS

On 6 November 2019, Sany Heavy Equipment, entered into the Second Subscription Agreement with Tianhong, pursuant to which Sany Heavy Equipment agree to subscribe for the Second Financial Product launched by Tianhong, with a principal amount of RMB400 million.

IMPLICATION UNDER THE LISTING RULES

However, after the subscription of the Second Financial Product, as more than one of the applicable percentage ratios in relation to the subscription of the two tranches of Financial Products calculated on an aggregated basis, pursuant to Rule 14.07 of the Listing Rules, exceed 5%, but all the applicable percentage ratios are less than 25%, the subscription of the two tranches of Financial Products would constitute a discloseable transaction of the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules and hence are subject to the notification and announcement requirements set out under Rule 14.34 of the Listing Rules.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE TRANSACTIONS

The transactions contemplated under the Subscription Agreements enable the Group to enjoy higher return than demand deposits generally offered by PRC commercial banks. The Directors are of the view that (i) the transactions contemplated under the Subscription Agreements provide the Group with a better return than demand deposits generally offered by PRC commercial banks; (ii) the transactions contemplated under the Subscription Agreements were funded from the Group's temporarily idle funds, which would not affect the working capital or the operation of the Group; and (iii) the investment return in connection with the transactions contemplated under the Subscription Agreements increases the Group's earnings. Accordingly, the Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) believe that the transactions contemplated under the Subscription Agreements are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Group and the Shareholders as a whole.

IMPLICATION UNDER THE LISTING RULES

However, after the subscription of the Second Financial Product, as more than one of the applicable percentage ratios in relation to the subscription of the two tranches of Financial Products calculated on an aggregated basis, pursuant to Rule 14.07 of the Listing Rules, exceed 5%, but all the applicable percentage ratios are less than 25%, the subscription of the two tranches of Financial Products would constitute a discloseable transaction of the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules and hence are subject to the notification and announcement requirements set out under Rule 14.34 of the Listing Rules.
