(the "Company") in relation to the offer (the "Exchange Offer") to exchange all of the Company's outstanding unregistered US$700,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 2.300% senior notes due 2027 (the "Outstanding 2027 Notes"), US$650,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 2.850% senior notes due 2029 (the "Outstanding 2029 Notes") and US$600,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 3.250% senior notes due 2031 (the "Outstanding 2031 Notes" and, together with the Outstanding 2027 Notes and the Outstanding 2029 Notes, the

"Outstanding Notes") for an equal principal amount of 2.300% senior notes due 2027, 2.850% senior notes due 2029 and 3.250% senior notes due 2031 (together, the "New Notes"), respectively, which have been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933 (the "U.S. Securities Act").

The board of directors (the "Board") of the Company announces that the Exchange Offer expired at 5:00 p.m., New York time, on August 8, 2022.

The following table shows the aggregate principal amounts of the Outstanding Notes that, based on the final count by the exchange agent for the Exchange Offer, were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn under the Exchange Offer and the aggregate principal amounts of the Outstanding Notes that were not tendered for exchange under the Exchange Offer:

Outstanding Notes Aggregate principal amounts of the Outstanding Notes that were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn under the Exchange Offer Aggregate principal amounts of the Outstanding Notes that were not tendered for exchange under the Exchange Offer
(US$) (US$)
Outstanding 2027 Notes 699,073,000 927,000
Outstanding 2029 Notes 649,621,000 379,000
Outstanding 2031 Notes 598,594,000 1,406,000

Pursuant to the Exchange Offer, an equal principal amount of the relevant series of the New Notes will be issued by the Company in exchange for the Outstanding Notes that were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn under the Exchange Offer. The terms of the New Notes to be issued in the Exchange Offer are identical in all material respects to the Outstanding Notes, except that the New Notes have been registered under the U.S. Securities Act and will not have any of the transfer restrictions, any of the registration rights provisions and certain inapplicable interest provisions relating to the Outstanding Notes. It is expected that the New Notes will be issued on or about August 11, 2022, New York time.

The Company has applied to The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited ("Stock Exchange") for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the New Notes on the Stock Exchange by way of debt issues to professional investors (as defined in Chapter 37 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited) only. Such permission to deal in the New Notes is expected to become effective on or about August 12, 2022, Hong Kong time. Listing of the New Notes on the Stock Exchange is not to be taken as an indication of the commercial merits or credit quality of the Company or the New Notes.

Since not all of the Outstanding 2027 Notes, Outstanding 2029 Notes and Outstanding 2031 Notes have been exchanged in full for the New Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer, the Outstanding 2027 Notes, Outstanding 2029 Notes and Outstanding 2031 Notes that remain outstanding after completion of the Exchange Offer will remain listed on the Stock Exchange.
