CHANGE IN BOARD LOT SIZE

The board of directors (the "Board") of China Tian Lun Gas Holdings Limited (the "Company") announces that the board lot size of the ordinary shares in the share capital of the Company (the "Shares") for trading on the Main Board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Stock Exchange") will be changed from 1,500 Shares to 500 Shares with effect from 9:00 a.m. on Monday, 19 November 2018.

The Shares are currently traded in board lots of 1,500 Shares each. The Board considers that the reduction in board lot size will lower the value of each board lot and therefore improve the liquidity of the Shares and broaden the shareholders' base of the Company. Upon the change in board lot size becoming effective, the Shares shall be traded in board lots of 500 Shares each.

The change in board lot size will not result in any change in the relative rights of the shareholders of the Company. As no odd lots of the Shares will be generated from the aforesaid change in board lot size, no odd lot arrangement is required to be made to match the sales and purchases of odd lots. The Board considers that the change in board lot size is in the interest of the Company and its shareholders as a whole.
