PROVISION OF GUARANTEE

The Board hereby announces that on December 17, 2025 (after trading hours), the Company, as guarantor, entered into the Deed of Guarantee with the Security Agent (for the benefit and on behalf of other Finance Parties under the Facility Agreement), pursuant to which the Company agreed to guarantee the due performance of the obligations of Risun Wei Shan under the Facility Agreement and other relevant finance documents in favor of the Finance Parties. The maximum payment obligation guaranteed by the Company under the Deed of Guarantee is expected to be up to US$269.6 million.

LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

As one or more of the applicable percentage ratios in respect of the expected maximum payment obligation guaranteed by the Company under the Deed of Guarantee exceed 5% but are all less than 25%, the provision of the Guarantee constitutes a discloseable transaction of the Company pursuant to the Listing Rules and is subject to the reporting and announcement requirements under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.

BACKGROUND

Risun Wei Shan is a joint venture of the Company, held as to 51% in aggregate by wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company, and 49% in aggregate by two joint venture partners who are independent third parties. On December 17, 2025, Risun Wei Shan, as borrower, entered into the Facility Agreement with the Security Agent and other Finance Parties, whereby the relevant Finance Parties agreed to make available to Risun Wei Shan the Facilities in an aggregate principal amount of US$453 million based on the terms and conditions provided therein. The final repayment date of the Facilities falls on the last day of the 60th month from the date of the Facility Agreement.

Innovation Leads to the Future


The Facilities consist of (i) a term loan facility in an aggregate amount of US$403 million, bearing an annual interest rate of 2.25% plus 3-month SOFR (subject to adjustments as specified in the Facility Agreement), which shall be applied towards repayment or prepayment of the existing facilities of Risun Wei Shan, and (ii) a revolving credit facility in an aggregate amount of US$50 million, bearing an annual interest rate of 2.00% plus the 3-month SOFR (subject to adjustments as specified in the Facility Agreement), which shall be applied towards financing the general working capital requirements of Risun Wei Shan. For information purpose only, the latest applicable SOFR as at December 15, 2025 is 3.75% per annum.

As a condition to the Finance Parties making available the Facilities to Risun Wei Shan pursuant to the Facility Agreement, the joint venture partners of Risun Wei Shan, including the Company which indirectly holds a 51% equity interest through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, agreed to provide guarantees in proportion to their respective equity interests in Risun Wei Shan, and to enter into deeds of guarantee with the Security Agent separately in this regard.

THE DEED OF GUARANTEE

The principal terms of the Deed of Guarantee entered into by the Company are set out below:

Date

December 17, 2025

Parties

(a) the Company, as guarantor; and
(b) PT Bank Mandiri (Persero) Tbk, as Security Agent (for the benefit and on behalf of other Finance Parties under the Facility Agreement)

To the best of the Directors' knowledge, information and belief, having made all reasonable enquiries, each of the Finance Parties and their respective ultimate beneficial owner(s) are third parties independent of the Company and its connected persons.

Provision of the Guarantee

Pursuant to the Deed of Guarantee, the Company agreed to guarantee the due performance of the Secured Liabilities by Risun Wei Shan in favor of the Finance Parties, and undertook to the Finance Parties that, in the event Risun Wei Shan did not pay the Secured Liabilities (or any part thereof) when due and payable, the Company would pay 51% of the Secured Liabilities as if it were the principal obligor.

Based on the aggregate principal amount of the Facilities and interest calculation method stipulated in the Facility Agreement, and taking into account the proportion of the Secured Liabilities guaranteed by the Company under the Deed of Guarantee, the maximum payment obligation guaranteed by the Company is expected to be up to US$269.6 million.

Term of the Guarantee

REASONS AND BENEFITS OF THE PROVISION OF THE GUARANTEE

Risun Wei Shan is currently operating a coke production base located in Morowali, Central Sulawesi, Indonesia, with a total planned production capacity of 4.8 million tons per annum (of which the production facilities with an annual capacity of 3.2 million tons have been completed and commissioned as at the date of this announcement). The provision of the Guarantee will aid Risun Wei Shan in securing the Facilities at a lower interest rate to meet its business development needs. Of the Facilities, US$403 million will be used to repay existing facilities from Chinese banks and financial institutions, which have an outstanding balance of the same amount as at the date of this announcement, and replacing the existing facilities is expected to reduce the financing costs of Risun Wei Shan by 75 basis points per annum.

Additionally, US$50 million from the Facilities will be used as supplementary working capital for Risun Wei Shan's daily operations. The guarantees (including the Guarantee provided by the Company) are offered by the joint venture partners of Risun Wei Shan in proportion to their respective equity interests in Risun Wei Shan, and will assist Risun Wei Shan in obtaining the Facilities, enhancing its turnover capacity, and ultimately generating long-term investment returns for the Group.

The Directors consider that the terms of the Deed of Guarantee are fair and reasonable and the provision of the Guarantee under the Deed of Guarantee is on normal commercial terms, and in the interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole.
