CHANGE IN DIRECTOR

At the beginning of the year, the Company received an oral notice from the non-executive director Mr. Xia Hui that he intended to terminate the contract early after the 2020 annual meeting as he was unable to take care of the Company's directorship due to personal matters. The Board elected to arrange a general meeting to appoint Mr. Peng Jian as the non-executive director of the Company to replace Mr. Xia. The Company, however, was unable to contact Mr. Xia since its receipt of his oral notice and has not received the official resignation letter and confirmation letter from Mr. Xia up till now. As the Articles of Association of the Company require eight directors, the appointment of Mr. Peng Jian is subject to the completion of Mr. Xia's resignation.

After the annual general meeting, the Board proposed in a meeting that a special general meeting shall be convened in accordance with requirements of the Articles of Association to early terminate the three- year contract of Mr. Xia Hui as the non-executive director, which was originally scheduled to end by the 2021 annual general meeting. As a result of the poll result in connection with immediate early termination of Mr. Xia's contract in the special general meetings, the appointment of Mr. Peng Jian will also be effective immediately.

2

Due to the temporary failure to contact Mr. Xia, it was unable to confirm whether he has disagreement with the Board and whether there are matters relating to his resignation that need to be brought to the attention of the shareholders of the Company. The Board would continue to contact Mr. Xia for these confirmations, and would also like to take this opportunity to express its sincere gratitude and appreciation to Mr. Xia for his valuable contributions to the Company during his tenure of office.
