ISSUE MANDATE

In order to ensure flexibility and give discretion to the Directors in the event that it becomes desirable for the Company to issue any new Shares, an ordinary resolution will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to grant a general mandate to the Directors to exercise all powers of the Company to allot, issue and deal with additional Shares of up to 20% of the number of the issued Shares as at the date of passing of such resolution in relation to the Issue Mandate.

In addition, subject to a separate approval of the ordinary resolution numbered 5(C), the number of Shares repurchased by the Company under the proposed Repurchase Mandate will also be added to extend the 20% limit of the Issue Mandate provided that such additional number of the Shares shall not exceed 10% of the number of the issued Shares as at the date of passing the resolutions in relation to the Issue Mandate and the Repurchase Mandate.

REPURCHASE MANDATE

An ordinary resolution will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to approve the granting of the Repurchase Mandate to the Directors to exercise all powers of the Company to repurchase Shares representing up to 10% of the number of the issued Shares as at the date of passing of such resolution in relation to the Repurchase Mandate.

PROCEDURE AND PROCESS FOR NOMINATION OF DIRECTORS

The purpose of this policy is to state the guidelines for the Nomination Committee on selection, appointment and re-appointment of Directors.

This policy aims to ensure the Board achieves a balance among skills, experience, knowledge and diverse perspectives, which meets the Company's business requirements.

The Nomination Committee will take into account the following criteria with due consideration for the assessment, selection and recommendation to the Board of the proposed Director. The criteria include but not limited to:

APPENDIX II

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by the Listing Rules, to provide the Shareholders with all the information reasonably necessary to enable you to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the ordinary resolution to approve the Repurchase Mandate.

NUMBER OF ISSUED SHARES

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the number of the issued Shares was 2,995,000,000 Shares with nominal value of US$0.00001 each. Subject to the passing of the resolution granting the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased before the Annual General Meeting, the Company will be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase up to a maximum of 299,500,000 Shares, representing 10% of the number of issued Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date during the period ending on the earlier of (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; or (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by any applicable laws or the Articles of Association to be held; or (iii) the date on which such authority is revoked or varied by a resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting.

REASONS OF REPURCHASES

The Directors believe that the Repurchase Mandate is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders. Such repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net assets and/or earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such a repurchase will benefit the Company and the Shareholders.

FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

Any repurchase of Shares by the Company will only be paid out of funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with the Articles of Association and the applicable laws and regulations of the Cayman Islands and the Listing Rules. The Company may not repurchase its own Shares on the Stock Exchange for a consideration other than cash or for settlement otherwise than in accordance with the trading rules of the Stock Exchange from time to time.

There may not be a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company as compared with the position disclosed in the audited financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2020 in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is to be exercised in full at any time during the proposed repurchase period. However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstance, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company or the gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

- 13 -

APPENDIX II

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

UNDERTAKING OF THE DIRECTORS

To the best of their knowledge, having made all reasonable enquiries, none of the Directors nor any of their close associates (as defined in the Listing Rules) have any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company, if the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

CONNECTED PERSONS

No core connected person (as defined in the Listing Rules) has notified the Company that he/she/it has a present intention to sell Shares to the Company, or has undertaken not to do so, in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders and exercised by the Board.

EFFECT OF TAKEOVERS CODE

If as a result of a repurchase of Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, a Shareholder 's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a Shareholder, or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (within the meaning of the Takeovers Code), depending on the level of increase of the Shareholder 's interest, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best knowledge and belief of the Directors, Mr. Dong Jinggui is deemed to be interested in 1,904,160,943 Shares held by Dai Wei under the SFO, representing approximately 63.58% of the issued Shares. Ms. Qian Jinghong is deemed to be interested in 1,904,160,943 Shares held by Fang Yuan under the SFO, representing approximately 63.58% of the issued Shares. Pursuant to the concert parties arrangement, Mr. Dong and Ms. Qian confirmed that they are parties acting in concert in relation to the exercise of their voting rights at the meetings of the Shareholders and the board of directors of the members of the Group. They have also further undertaken that during the period when they remain interested in, directly or indirectly, the Shares, they will continue to act in accordance with the concert parties arrangement. As such, Mr. Dong and Ms. Qian, together with their respective holding companies (being Dai Wei and Fang Yuan), are all deemed to be interested in the total Shares held by Dai Wei and Fang Yuan. In the event that the Directors should exercise in full the Repurchase Mandate, such interests will be increased to approximately 70.64% of the issued Shares.

In the opinion of the Directors, such increase would not give rise to any obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, the Directors are not aware of any other consequences which arise under the Takeovers Code as a result of any repurchase of its Shares by the Company.
