Global Cord Blood Corporation (In Provisional Liquidation) (the “Company”)

Cause No: FSD 106 of 2022 (IKJ)

Cayman Islands company number: 227732

Introductory Note

On 22 September 2022, the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands (the "Court") issued an order appointing Margot Maclnnis and John Royle of Grant Thornton Specialist Services (Cayman) Limited, and Chow Tsz Nga Georgia of Grant Thornton Recovery & Reorganisation Limited, as joint provisional liquidators (the "JPLs") of the Company pursuant to Section 104(2) of the Companies Act (as amended) ("Companies Act") of the Cayman Islands.

Application for Approval of the JPLs' Fees and Disbursements

On 28 May 2025, the JPLs filed a summons (the "Summons") seeking the Court's approval of, inter alia, their fees and disbursements pursuant to Section 104(5) of the Companies Act and the Insolvency Practitioners' Regulations (as amended) for the period 1 October 2023 to 30 September 2024 ("Second Fee Approval Period").

On 2 June 2025, the JPLs received confirmation from the Court registry that the Summons had been listed for hearing at 9:30am, Friday, 4 July 2025 (Cayman Islands time (UTC -5)) ("Hearing Date").

As part of the Summons, the JPLs have also applied for Court approval to dispense with the requirement to hold an extraordinary general meeting ("EGM"), which would ordinarily be held to consider resolutions relating to the JPLs' rates, fees and disbursements. Shareholders may recall that an EGM was convened for 16 April 2024, adjourned to 23 April 2024, and ultimately dissolved due to a lack of quorum. The JPLs are seeking the Court's approval to dispense with the requirement to hold an EGM on the basis that the underlying issues contributing to the lack of quorum remain unresolved. Considering this, and to avoid the time and costs associated with convening another EGM that may similarly be dissolved, the JPLs consider it appropriate to seek the Court's direction on this matter.

Stakeholder Queries

As the JPLs anticipate that no EGM will be held, the JPLs advise all shareholders that:

1) Any shareholder who wishes to provide any comments or queries regarding the JPLs' rates, fees and disbursements for the Second Fee Approval Period should do so in writing to the JPLs by no later than 14 June 2025. Any communications should be sent by email to GCBCJPLs@uk.gt.com. To the extent appropriate, the JPLs intend to file a short affidavit with the Court in advance of the Hearing Date which addresses any comments or queries received.

2) Any shareholder who intends to appear at the hearing of the Summons must notify the JPLs and confirm their support or opposition to the orders being sought by no later than 16 June 2025 to ensure that the hearing of the Summons proceeds in an orderly manner.
