SATISFACTION OF CONDITIONS TO IMPLEMENTATION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF THE MERGER

The Offeror and the Company jointly announce that as at the date of this joint announcement, all Conditions to implementation have been fulfilled. Accordingly, the implementation of the Merger has become unconditional and the Merger has become effective.

APPOINTMENT OF AGENT FOR ODD LOT ARRANGEMENT

As disclosed in the Composite Document, the Offeror H Shares will be traded in board lots of 100 shares each. As a result of the Share Exchange, Share Exchange Shareholders may receive the Offeror H Shares in odd lots. In order to facilitate the trading of odd lots (if any) in the Offeror H Shares, the Offeror has appointed Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited to provide matching services, on a best efforts basis, to the Share Exchange Shareholders to facilitate the acquisition or disposal of odd lots of the Offeror H Shares to make up a full board lot of the Offeror H Shares, during the period from 7 August 2025 to 15 August 2025. Share Exchange Shareholders who wish to take advantage of this service should contact Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited at Rooms 1712–1716, 17th Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Wan Chai, Hong Kong or at telephone numbers (852) 2862 8555 during office hours (i.e. 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.) of such period. Participating Share Exchange Shareholders should note that successful matching of the sale and purchase of odd lots of the Offeror H Shares is not guaranteed and that in the event of successful matching, the relevant Share Exchange Shareholder will be charged the standard brokerage fee of Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited. Any Share Exchange Shareholders who are in doubt about this service are recommended to consult their professional advisers.

NOTICE TO U.S. H SHAREHOLDERS

The Merger will be implemented by way of a merger by absorption provided for under the laws of the PRC, which will involve the exchange of securities of two companies incorporated in the PRC with limited liability and the cancellation of the securities of a company incorporated in the PRC with limited liability. The Merger is subject to Hong Kong disclosure requirements, which are different from those of the United States. The financial information included in the Company’s announcements and the Composite Document has been prepared in accordance with IFRS and thus may not be comparable to financial information of U.S. companies or companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

U.S. H Shareholders may encounter difficulty enforcing their rights and any claims arising out of the U.S. federal securities laws, as the Offeror and the Company are located in a country outside the United States and some or all of their respective officers and directors may be residents of a country other than the United States. U.S. H Shareholders may not be able to sue a non-U.S. company or its officers or directors in a non-U.S. court for violations of the U.S. securities laws. Further, U.S. H Shareholders may encounter difficulty compelling a non-U.S. company and its affiliates to subject themselves to a U.S. court’s judgment.

In accordance with the Takeovers Code and Rule 14e-5(b) of the U.S. Exchange Act, CICC and its affiliates may continue to act as exempt principal traders in the Shares on the Stock Exchange. These purchases may occur either in the open market at prevailing prices or in private transactions at negotiated prices, provided that any such purchase or arrangement complies with applicable law, including but not limited to the Takeovers Code, and is made outside the United States. Any information about such purchases will be reported to the SFC in accordance with the requirements of the Takeovers Code and, to the extent made public by the SFC, will be available on the website of the SFC at http://www.sfc.hk and the Stock Exchange at www.hkexnews.hk.
