The Company is pleased to announce that on 26 September 2019, Shanghai Jiyun (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company), Shangtou Asset and Shanghai Galaxy jointly established the JV Company in Shanghai, the PRC for the purposes of undertaking the Business.

As at the date of this announcement, SIIC is the controlling shareholder of the Company holding approximately 61.22% of the entire issued share capital of the Company, and is therefore a connected person of the Company.

Accordingly, the Formation of JV constitutes a connected transaction of the Company under Chapter14A of the Listing Rules.

As the highest applicable percentage ratio calculated under Rule 14.07 of the Listing Rules in respect of the Formation of JV exceeds 0.1% but is less than 5%, the Formation of JV is subject to the reporting and announcement requirements, but is exempt from the independent shareholders' approval requirement under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.
