CONNECTED TRANSACTION:

ENTERING INTO THE NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT

INTRODUCTION

Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 11 May 2021. As set out in the announcement, on 11 May 2021, the Company and Beijing RHY entered into the Non- competition Agreement, pursuant to which each party agreed, among other things, that it will not engage in businesses which compete or may compete with that of the other party.

Given that both the Group and the Beijing RHY Group are in the transportation industry, the Company and Beijing RHY entered into the Non-competition Agreement with a view to avoid potential competition between the Group and the Beijing RHY Group and potential conflicts of interests involving the executive Directors (who have interests in both the Group and the Beijing RHY Group).
