REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE ACQUISITION

Background for the Company to enter into the healthcare industry

The Group is principally engaged in the exploration, mining, processing and trading of iron ore products in China and major products including iron ores, preliminary concentrates and iron ore concentrates.

As the economic growth slows down and the supply of the steel industry exceeds demand in China, both the demand and selling price of iron ore have been declining continuously, which also has negative effect on the operating results of the Group. Based on the principle of maximizing the Shareholder’s interests, the Company has strived to maintain profitability by improving operation and sales and cutting down costs on the one hand, and on the other hand, has attempted to improve the Group’s profitability by continuously exploring new opportunities of investment.

After a comprehensive study of the resources and demand of the healthcare market of Baoding, Hebei Province, the management of the Company determined that it is a good opportunity for the Group to enter into the healthcare industry by acquiring the Target Group and conducting business in relation to hospital management, establishment of specialist clinics supply of medical consumables and nursing service.

China has the largest population in the world, and also has one of the world’s largest medical service markets. According to the research of a renowned market research consulting company, the total healthcare expenses will amount to RMB5,367 billion in 2017 (amounting to approximately 6.0% of the gross domestic product of China). However, comparing with developed countries, the healthcare expenses per capita of China are still in a low level, which means that the healthcare industry still has high potential of growth.

– 7 –

Meanwhile, under the current domestic healthcare system in China, there remains a mismatch between the supply and demand of healthcare resources. High-quality healthcare resources and experts are concentrated in public hospitals, first-tier cities and provincial cities, while privately owned hospitals, mid-small cities and local medical institutions are disadvantaged, which resulted in the patients concentrating into the large hospitals in first and second-tier cities. Large numbers of mid-small size hospitals face the dilemma of insufficient supply of high-quality healthcare resources and weak hospital operation.

On the basis of the above analyses, the Company believes that by providing high-quality healthcare resources and facilitating information sharing, the unbalanced conditions of healthcare resources distribution will be resolved, and the operation results of large numbers of mid-small size hospitals will be improved, and the profit of the hospital management companies will also be improved in return.

The information on the hospital managed by the PRC Company

The Rongcheng County Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine (the “ Hospital ”) was established in 1987. In 1994, the hospital set up a 120 Emergency Call Center in Rongcheng County. The Hospital has a total area of approximately 9,000 square meters, of which approximately 8550 square meters are floor area. The Hospital has 192 employees in total, among which 156 employees are healthcare personnel. The Hospital has 150 beds in total and 13 first-level clinical departments.

Rongcheng County has a total population of approximately 260,000. According to the statistics of 2015, the total citizens healthcare expenses amounted to approximately RMB700 million. However, since the healthcare standard of Rongcheng County cannot satisfy the need of local citizens, approximately RMB500 million of the healthcare expenses flowed to areas outside of the county including Baoding and Beijing, with only approximately RMB200 million left in the county. These expenses that flowed out of Rongcheng County represent the huge potential of the healthcare market in Rongcheng County.

The PRC Company has entered into the Agreement with the Healthcare and Family Planning Bureau and the Management Agreement with Rongcheng County Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. According to the Agreement and Management Agreement, the PRC Company will leverage on its medical service resources and experts team to provide services including but not limited to hospital management, establishment of specialist clinics, supply of medical consumable and nursing service, aiming to improve the operation results of the Hospital and grasp the high potential of the healthcare market of this region.

To achieve the above goals, the PRC Company will take measures including (i) introduction of the experts from the First-class Hospital (三甲醫院) from Beijing to improve the level of diagnosis and treatment as well as the ability of research and development; (ii) development of three key departments including the cardiovascular department, the neurology department and gastroenterology department to form specialty healthcare, drive the coefficient development of other departments and attract patient from surrounding regions; (iii) increase of outpatient volume and hospitalization rate by expansion of beds, equipment, improvement of hospital environment and quality of service.

– 8 –

In addition to management fees, the PRC Company will also try to generate profit by obtaining exclusive management right of the supply chain of the Rongcheng County Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine through the Management Agreement and exclusive supply of medicine, equipment and medical consumables by proprietary or strategic cooperation with other suppliers.

In view of the above analysis, the future market prospects for the PRC Company and the Agreement and Management Agreement entered into by the Hospital, the Board believes that the terms of the Sale and Purchase Agreement are fair and reasonable and are in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.

Auditor’s Responsibilities

Our responsibility is to report, as required by paragraph 14.62(2) of the Listing Rules, on the calculations of the discounted future cash flows used in the Valuation. The discounted future cash flows do not involve the adoption of accounting policies.

Basis of opinion

We conducted our engagement in accordance with the Hong Kong Standard on Assurance Engagements 3000 (Revised) “Assurance Engagements Other Than Audits or Reviews of Historical Financial Information” issued by the HKICPA. This standard requires that we plan and perform our work to obtain reasonable assurance as to whether, so far as the calculations are concerned, the Directors have properly compiled the discounted future cash flows in accordance with the bases and assumptions adopted by the Directors as set out in the Valuation. We performed procedures on the arithmetical calculations and the compilations of the discounted future cash flows in accordance with the bases and assumptions adopted by the Directors. Our work is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing issued by the HKICPA. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, so far as the calculations are concerned, the discounted future cash flows have been properly compiled in all material respects in accordance with the bases and assumptions adopted by the Directors as set out in the Valuation.

Other matters

Without qualifying our opinion, we draw to your attention that we are not reporting on the appropriateness and validity of the bases and assumptions on which the discounted future cash flows are based and our work does not constitute any valuation of the Target Company or an expression of an audit or review opinion on the Valuation.

The discounted future cash flows depend on future events and on a number of assumptions which cannot be confirmed and verified in the same way as past results and not all of which may remain valid throughout the period. Our work has been undertaken for the purpose of reporting solely to you under paragraph 14.62(2) of the Listing Rules and for no other purpose. We accept no responsibility to any other person in respect of, arising out of or in connection with our work.
