INFORMATION ON THE PARTIES

The Company is an investment holding company and the Group is principally engaged in provision of medical care, health care and geriatric care related services and products.

Lugang International is a non-wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and is principally engaged in property development.

Bank of Beijing is a licensed bank in the PRC and a joint stock company established under the laws of the PRC, which provides corporate and personal banking business, treasury business, finance leasing, asset management and other financial services in the PRC. Its shares are listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange (stock code: 601169). To the best of the Directors' knowledge, information and belief having made all reasonable enquiry, Bank of Beijing and its ultimate beneficial owner(s) are third parties independent of the Company and its connected persons.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE PURCHASE OF STRUCTURED DEPOSIT

The reasonable and efficient use of temporary idle funds will enhance the overall capital gain of the Company, which is consistent with the core objectives of the Company to ensure capital safety and liquidity. The impact of risk factors on the expected rates of return of the Lugang Structured Deposit Agreements is low, but the Group could get a higher return as compared with fixed term deposit in commercial banks in the PRC.

The Directors consider that the terms of the Lugang Structured Deposit Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder are fair and reasonable, on normal commercial terms or better and in the ordinary course of business of the Group, and are in the interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole.

LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

As one of the applicable percentage ratio (as calculated under Rule 14.07 of the Listing Rules) in respect of the Lugang Structured Deposit Agreement exceeds 5% but all of the applicable percentage ratios are less than 25%, the purchase of structured deposit under the Lugang Structured Deposit Agreement as mentioned above constitutes a discloseable transaction of the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules and is subject to the notification and announcement requirements under the Listing Rules.
