Basis of the Annual Caps

In arriving at the annual caps for the years ending 31 December 2020, 2021 and 2022, the Company has taken into account the following:

  1. Sales data: Sales data of the Intelligent Rail Transit, Building and Urban Heating Network Businesses, including the contract price of the existing projects, contracts in negotiation and bidding of projects participated by the Intelligent Rail Transit, Building and Urban Heating Network Businesses, and estimated growth for each of the businesses (as further detailed in paragraph (v) below);
  2. Historical pattern of payments of contract prices by the Intelligent Rail Transit, Building and Urban Heating Network Businesses' customers: The amount of fees to be received by the Group from third party customers through THTF during each year is determined with reference to the historical pattern of payments of contract prices, including seasonality and proportions of payments in each year, and a proportion of the aggregate amount under the subsisting Nominee Projects and anticipated new projects is allocated to each year at a certain percentage, representing the estimated amount of payments received by the Group each year;
  3. Historical cost of sales of the Intelligent Rail Transit, Building and Urban Heating Network Businesses: The historical cost of sales of the Intelligent Rail Transit, Building and Urban Heating Network Businesses as a percentage of revenue received each year is used to approximate the amount of payments that the Group will pay to THTF to settle debts with third party creditors by reference to the amount of contract price it will receive for the given year;

- 9 -

  1. Trends of the gross profit margin of each of the Intelligent Rail Transit, Building and Urban Heating Network Businesses: The cost of sales of the Intelligent Rail Transit, Building and Urban Heating Network Businesses as a percentage of revenue received each year (as mentioned in paragraph (iii) above) is determined based on the historical gross profit margins of the Intelligent Rail Transit, Building and Urban Heating Network Businesses and taking into account the prevailing trend of such gross profit margins. The projected cost of sales is used to estimate the amount of payables to be settled under the Nominee Projects by the Group; and
  2. Expected growth of the Intelligent Rail Transit, Building and Urban Heating Network Businesses: The assumed growth rate of the total contract price for each year is based on the historical and forecasted growth rates of the Intelligent Rail Transit, Building and Urban Heating Network Businesses, taking into account industry trends and macro- economic factors, coupled with the Group's targeted growth rate.

Reasons for and benefits of the 2019 Business Arrangements Agreement

Under the 2019 Business Arrangements Agreement, the Group has the right but not the obligation to require THTF to facilitate the Intelligent Rail Transit, Building and Urban Heating Network Businesses in the manners set out above. The transactions contemplated under the 2019 Business Arrangement Agreement will enable the Group to continue to develop and grow the Intelligent Rail Transit, Building and Urban Heating Network Businesses while the Group continues to establish its position in the market under its own name. Since the completion of the optimization and reorganization of the businesses of the Group in 2017, the Group has been directly engaged for a substantial amount of new projects and contracts. Nonetheless, a number of customers especially those with large-scale projects still wish to deal with THTF in the meantime due to their past relationships. As THTF has been operating for a significant period of time and has built its brand recognition among customers, with its assistance by way of the arrangements under the 2019 Business Arrangements Agreement, the Group can avoid loss of potential business opportunities, including to capture the current growth of the Intelligent Rail Transit, Building and Urban Heating Network Businesses and those large-scale projects where the customers still wish to deal with THTF in the meantime, while continuing to build-up the Group's presence and name.

Since the completion of the acquisition of the Intelligent Rail Transit, Building and Urban Heating Network Businesses in October 2015, the Group has continued to establish and expand its presence in the market for the Intelligent Rail Transit, Building and Urban Heating Network Businesses. Nonetheless, some customers still need time and further assurance to obtain their own internal approval to engage the Group directly for the services under the Intelligent Rail Transit, Building and Urban Heating Network Businesses, and these customers may wish to continue to deal with THTF in the meantime due to their history of dealings with THTF. The Directors believe the arrangements under the 2019 Business Arrangements Agreement continue to be an integral part of the operations of the Intelligent Rail Transit, Building and Urban Heating Network Businesses.

- 10 -

The Company has continued to deploy different strategies when negotiating with existing and new customers in relation to projects in the Intelligent Rail Transit, Building and Urban Heating Network Businesses. For existing customers, the Company has been educating these customers to contract with the Group directly so as to reduce the transactions through THTF. Through continuous efforts, during the previous three years, the Group has successfully entered into a considerable number of new contrasts with these existing customers. As for the new customers, the Group believes it is important to first secure the contracts of these new customers in which THTF and the Group have no past business relationship with. The Group's strategy is to allow THTF to contract with these new customers first if such new customers prefer to contract with THTF since THTF has a long operating history in the industry and has built its reputation. Such strategy has proved to be successful in attracting new customers in the previous three years. In any event, the Group will then invest additional time to educate these new customers to directly engage the Group in the future whilst the Group continues to accumulate its operating experience, presence and name in the industry.

As for the transfer from the Group to THTF, those transfers are to facilitate the settlement of the debts related to the Nominee Projects, which are for the payments to the suppliers for the procurement of raw materials, products and services by the Group for the Nominee Projects that THTF has procured for the Group in order for the Group to provide the services to the Nominee Projects. Furthermore, THTF is not entitled to any additional charge for these payments or procurement.

THTF is in name the legal debtor for the debts of the Nominee Projects, which have not been assumed by the Group. All the debts as at 30 September 2019 arise from the requests and needs of the Group in order to procure raw materials, products and services for the Nominee Projects and are the Group's costs of sales in order to generate the revenue. Therefore, if THTF has to settle any debts on behalf of the Group for the Nominee Projects, the Group has to reimburse THTF for any amount settled for these debts.

The Directors (other than the independent non-executive Directors, who will form their view after considering the advice of the Independent Financial Adviser) are of the view that the 2019 Business Arrangements Agreement is entered into in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group, on normal commercial terms, and are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

THE 2019 SALES AGREEMENT

three years from 1 January 2020 to 31 December 2022.

Consideration

The price at which the Group sells such products to Tongfang

and payment:

Group will be determined based on normal commercial terms after

arm's length negotiation.

For the sale of ready - made products or the provision of

standardised services, the price for such products or services shall

be determined based on the pricing terms as offered by the Group

no less favorable than those given to Independent Third Parties.

The Group shall regularly review such pricing policy.

For the sale of self-produced products or services, the Group

shall make reference to transactions of similar type, scale and

nature with Independent Third Parties to ensure that the price and

conditions as offered by the Group are not less favourable than

those offered to Independent Third Parties.

- 12 -

When negotiating the price, the Group will make reference to the following factors:

  1. the prevailing market rate determined based on:
    1. the price of similar products used in similar scale and nature of projects offered by the Group and accepted by Independent Third Party customers (the "Comparable Sales Transactions") during a period of 12 months prior to the relevant transaction with Tongfang Group (the "12-MonthSales Period") (if any), including but not limited to the most recent relevant transactions offered by the Group and accepted by Independent Third Party customers; and
    2. if there are no Comparable Sales Transactions within the 12-Month Sales Period, the price of similar products used in similar scale and nature of products offered by the Group and accepted by Independent Third Party customers any time prior to the 12-Month Sales Period, including but not limited to the most recent relevant transactions offered by the Group and accepted by Independent Third Party customers and taking into account the latest market and independent supplier information available to the Group at time of the relevant transaction with the Tongfang Group;
  2. length of the contracts; and
  3. the type, design and expected costs of the products.

The Group maintains a standardised price list applicable to all customers. The standardised prices of products are determined based on cost-plus pricing with a mark-up rate of usually not less than 20%, taking into account (i) for self-produced products, the production cost; or (ii) for procured products, the procurement cost, and are reviewed and adjusted by the product management department from time to time with reference to changes in the market prices of similar products offered by the Group's competitors. For ancillary services provided in connection with the products, the standardised service fee is set at a percentage, usually 12%, of the quoted product price. After due consideration of the above factors, the sales department will, based on the price as stated in the Group's standardised price list, determine the final quotation price and discount after considering additional factors such as the scale of the contract and the payment terms.

- 13 -

In any event, the price offered to Tongfang Group should be no

less favourable to the Group than that offered by the Group to

Independent Third Party customers for products of a similar type,

scale and nature of projects and length of contracts.

The payment terms for the products will be set out in separate

sales contracts, shall be on normal commercial terms, and

determined with reference to prevailing market practices.

Depending on the product type, scale and length of contracts, the

payment term may include a deposit and/or instalments which may

be payable at the completion of different stages of the contract or

after certain deliverables are available or after certain milestones

are reached.

In any event, the payment terms should be no less favorable to

the Group than those offered by the Group to Independent Third

Party customers for products of a similar type, scale and length of

contracts.

As an active market participant, the Group will through market

analysis, market research, feedback from customers and

interactions with other market participants obtain sufficient market

intelligence to enable them to ascertain the prevailing market

rate and practices as well as the latest market and competitor

information at any point in time. The Company will also continue

to take steps to keep themselves abreast of market developments

personnel focusing on different regions and cities throughout the

Given the mutual beneficial relationship between the Group and the Tongfang Group, the Directors (other than the independent non-executive Directors, who will form their view after considering the advice of the Independent Financial Adviser) consider that the 2019 Master Agreement is entered into in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group, on normal commercial terms, and are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

- 23 -

Implementation Agreement

The 2019 Master Agreement is intended to set out the basic terms of the transactions to be covered under the 2019 Master Agreement. The parties shall negotiate the specific terms of the transactions in accordance with the market conditions. It is envisaged that from time to time and as required, individual implementation agreements may be entered into between the Company, THTF and their respective associates or relevant parties, as appropriate, to set out further terms of the transactions contemplated under the 2019 Master Agreement.

Each implementation agreement will set out the specific scope of products and services requested by the relevant party and other specifications which may be relevant to those products and services. The implementation agreements may only contain provisions which are in all material respect consistent with the terms and conditions as contained in the 2019 Master Agreement.

As the implementation agreements are simply further elaborations on the provision of products and services as contemplated by the 2019 Master Agreement, they do not constitute new categories of connected transactions or continuing connected transactions under the Listing Rules.

LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

THTF is a controlling Shareholder and is therefore a connected persons of the Company under the Listing Rules. Accordingly, the 2019 Agreements and the transactions under the 2019 Agreements between the Group and Tongfang Group constitute continuing connected transactions of the Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

Further, the Group notes from Rule 14A.01 of the Listing Rules and various listing decisions of the Stock Exchange related to continuing connected transactions that the related rules under the Listing Rules aim to ensure that the interests of shareholders as a whole are taken into account by a listed issuer when it enters into transactions with connected persons, in particular to safeguard against connected persons taking advantage of their positions to the detriment of the issuer's minority shareholders. Hence, taking into account (i) the spirit of the Listing Rules relating to connected transactions; (ii) the amount of transfers both to and from the Group and THTF under the 2019 Business Arrangements Agreement; (iii) the status of THTF as a controlling Shareholder; and (iv) the treatment by the Group of the transfers under the 2017 Business Arrangements Agreement in 2017, for the transfers contemplated under the 2019 Business Arrangements, although no consideration will be paid by the Group to THTF in relation to such business arrangements, given that there will be payments between the Group and THTF, the Board considers it appropriate to subject such payments to the requirements for continuing connected transactions under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules, and adopt the stated annual caps as the maximum transaction amounts for these transactions.

As one or more percentage ratios (as defined in Rule 14.07 of the Listing Rules) for the transactions contemplated under each of the 2019 Agreements are greater than 5%, each of the 2019 Agreements and the transactions contemplated under these agreements are subject to the reporting, announcement and Independent Shareholders' approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

- 24 -

Resolutions will be put forth to the Independent Shareholders at the EGM for the Independent Shareholders to consider and approve each of the 2019 Agreements and the respective Annual Caps for the years ending 31 December 2020, 2021 and 2022.

As the transactions under the 2019 Agreements are transactions of a revenue nature in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Company, these transactions do not constitute transactions under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.
