WAIVER FROM STRICT COMPLIANCE WITH RULES 3.28 AND 8.17 OF THE LISTING RULES

Pursuant to Rules 3.28 and 8.17 of the Listing Rules, an issuer must appoint a company secretary who, by virtue of his/her academic or professional qualifications or relevant experience, is, in the opinion of the Stock Exchange, capable of discharging the functions of company secretary.

Although Mr. Lin currently does not have the qualifications as required under Rule 3.28 of the Listing Rules, having considered the background and experience of Mr. Lin, and the reasons set out below, the Company is of the view that Mr. Lin should be appointed as a joint Company Secretary and is capable of discharging the relevant duties:

(1) As the headquarters and principal business activities of the Company are located in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”), the Company wishes to appoint a person who is familiar with the business and day-to-day operation of the Company to be a Joint Company Secretary;

2

(2) Mr. Lin has been serving as the chief financial officer of the Company since August 2024. His ample understanding of the business operation of the Company, close working relationship with the Board and the senior management of the Company as well as his presence at the Company’s headquarters would allow him to maintain strong communication with the Board and the management of the Company, enabling effective corporate governance and decision-making of the Company’s day-to-day affairs;

(3) Ms. Chan would serve as a Joint Company Secretary and assist Mr. Lin in jointly performing the functions of the Joint Company Secretaries; and

(4) The Company would ensure, and Mr. Lin has undertaken, that he would attend no less than 15 hours of relevant professional training that are relevant to a company secretary’s roles and duties in each financial year in order to comply with the annual professional training requirements set out in Rule 3.29 of the Listing Rules.

In view of the above, the Company has applied to the Stock Exchange for, and the Stock Exchange has granted, a waiver from strict compliance with Rules 3.28 and 8.17 of the Listing Rules (the “Waiver”) for a period of three years from the effective date of appointment of Mr. Lin as a Joint Company Secretary (“Waiver Period”) on the following conditions:

(a) Mr. Lin must be assisted by Ms. Chan during the Waiver Period; and

(b) the Waiver could be revoked if there are material breaches of the Listing Rules by the Company.

Before the end of the Waiver Period, the Company must demonstrate and seek confirmation from the Stock Exchange that Mr. Lin, having had the benefit of Ms. Chan’s assistance during the Waiver Period, has attained the relevant experience and is capable of discharging the functions of company secretary under Rule 3.28 of the Listing Rules such that a further waiver will not be necessary. The Stock Exchange may withdraw or change the terms of the Waiver if the Company’s situation changes.

The Board would like to take this opportunity to express its sincere gratitude to Mr. Chan for his valuable contribution and services to the Company during his tenure of office, and welcome Mr. Lin and Ms. Chan for their new appointment as the Joint Company Secretaries.
