The relevant details of supplemental updates and announcements are as follows:

  1. The Company's announcements dated 2 July 2021, 8 July 2021 and 16 August 2021, in relation to the repurchase and cancellation of certain USD senior notes with total aggregate principal amount of US$22.808 million, such as US$9.8 million, US$5 million and US$8.008 million respectively;

Noteholders and potential investors should note that whether any purchase of the notes from time to time by the Company will be at the Board's sole and absolute discretion. There is no assurance of the timing, amount or price of any purchase of the notes, nor does it guarantee that the Company will purchase more notes.
