APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON

THE SHARE BUY-BACK MANDATE

This is an explanatory statement required by Rule 10.06(1)(b) of the Listing Rules to provide you with all the information reasonably necessary to enable all Shareholders to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the resolution to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting approving the Share Buy-back Mandate.

1. SHARES IN ISSUE

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there was a total of 2,583,970,000 Shares in issue. Subject to the passing of the resolution granting the Share Buy-back Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or bought back during the period from the Latest Practicable Date to the date of the Annual General Meeting, the Company will be allowed under the Share Buy-back Mandate to buy back a maximum of 258,397,000 Shares, being 10% of the total number of Shares in issue as at the date of the passing of the relevant resolution at the Annual General Meeting.

2. REASONS FOR SHARE BUY BACK

The Directors have no present intention to buy back any Shares but consider that the ability to do so would give the Company additional flexibility that would be beneficial to the Company and the Shareholders as a whole as such buy back may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net assets value of the Company and/or its earning per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such a buy back will benefit the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

As compared with the financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2020 (as disclosed in its latest audited financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2020), the Directors consider that there would not be any material adverse impact on the working capital and on the gearing position of the Company in the event that the proposed buy back were to be carried out in full during the proposed buy back period. In the circumstances, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Share Buy-back Mandate to such an extent as would have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing ratio of the Company.

3. FUNDING OF BUY BACK

The Company is empowered by its Articles of Association to buy back its Shares. In buying back Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with the Articles of Association, the Listing Rules and laws of the Cayman Islands and any other applicable laws. The laws of the Cayman Islands provide that payment for a share buy-back may only be made out of profits, share premium account or the proceeds of a new issue of Shares made for such purpose or subject to the Cayman Companies Law, out of capital of the Company. The amount of premium payable on buy back of Shares may only be paid out of either or both of the profits or the share premium account of the Company or subject to the Cayman Companies Law, out of capital of the Company.

- 8 -

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON

THE SHARE BUY-BACK MANDATE

In addition, under the laws of the Cayman Islands, payment out of capital by a company for the purchase by a company of its own shares is unlawful unless immediately following the date on which the payment is proposed to be made, the company shall be able to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business. In accordance with the laws of the Cayman Islands, the shares so bought back would be treated as cancelled but the aggregate amount of authorised share capital would not be reduced.

4. EFFECT OF EXERCISING THE SHARE BUY-BACK MANDATE

There might be a material adverse impact on the working capital and/or gearing position of the Company as compared with the position disclosed in the most recent published audited accounts, in the event that the Share Buy-back Mandate was to be carried out in full at any time during the proposed buy back period. However, the Directors do not intend to exercise the Share Buy-back Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements or the gearing position of the Company which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

5. DIRECTORS, THEIR CLOSE ASSOCIATES AND CORE CONNECTED PERSONS

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge and belief having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their close associates (as defined in the Listing Rules), has any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company in the event that the Share Buy-back Mandate is granted by the Shareholders. No core connected person of the Company (as defined in the Listing Rules) has notified the Company that he/she/it has a present intention to sell Shares to the Company nor has he/she/it undertaken not to sell any of the Shares held by him/her/it to the Company in the event that the Share Buy-back Mandate is granted by the Shareholders.

6. UNDERTAKING OF THE DIRECTORS

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the powers of the Company to make buy backs pursuant to the Share Buy-back Mandate and in accordance with the Listing Rules, the Articles of Association and the laws of the Cayman Islands.

7. EFFECT OF TAKEOVERS CODE

A buy back of Shares by the Company may result in an increase in the proportionate interests of a substantial Shareholder in the voting rights of the Company, which could give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best of the knowledge and belief of the Company, China Minsheng Jiaye Investment Co., Ltd. the controlling shareholder of the Company, was beneficially interested in 1,581,485,750 Shares, representing approximately

- 9 -

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON

THE SHARE BUY-BACK MANDATE

61.20% of the total number of Shares in issue. In the event that the Directors exercise in full the power to buy back the Shares which is proposed to be granted pursuant to the Share Buy-back Mandate, the shareholding of China Minsheng Jiaye Investment Co., Ltd. would be increased to approximately 68.00% of the then total number of Shares in issue. In the opinion of the Directors, such increase would not give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code. Save as aforesaid, the Directors are not aware of any consequences which would arise under the Takeovers Code as a result of any buy-back of shares pursuant to the Share Buy-back Mandate. The Company has no intention to exercise the Share Buy-back Mandate to such extent that it would give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under the Takeovers Code or result in the amount of Shares held by the public being reduced to less than 25% of the issued share capital of the Company.

8. SHARE BUY BACKS BY THE COMPANY

The Company had not bought back any Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) in the six months preceding the Latest Practicable Date.

9. SHARE PRICES

For each of the twelve months preceding the Latest Practicable Date, the highest and lowest traded prices for Shares on the Stock Exchange were as follows:
