CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM

GEM has been positioned as a market designed to accommodate small and mid-sized companies to which a higher investment risk may be attached than other companies listed on the Stock Exchange. Prospective investors should be aware of the potential risks of investing in such companies and should make the decision to invest only after due and careful consideration.

Given that the companies listed on GEM are generally small and mid-sized companies, there is a risk that securities traded on GEM may be more susceptible to high market volatility than securities traded on the Main Board and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES FOR THE EGM

VOTING BY PROXY IN ADVANCE OF THE EGM

The Company does not in any way wish to diminish the opportunity available to the Shareholders to exercise their rights and to vote, but is conscious of the pressing need to protect the Shareholders from possible exposure to the novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) pandemic. For the health and safety of the Shareholders, the Company would like to remind Shareholders that they should carefully consider the risks of attending the EGM, taking into account their own personal circumstances and encourage Shareholders to exercise their right to vote at the EGM by appointing the chairman of the EGM as their proxy instead of attending the EGM in person. Physical attendance is not necessary for the purpose of exercising Shareholders’ rights. Completion and return of the proxy form will not preclude the Shareholders from attending and voting in person at the EGM or any adjournment thereof should they subsequently so wish.

PREVENTIVE MEASURES AT THE EGM

In view of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and recent requirements for prevention and control of its spread, the Company will implement the following preventive measures at the EGM to safeguard the health and safety of the attending Shareholders, staff and other stakeholders:

  • (i) A compulsory body temperature check will be conducted on every Shareholder, proxy and other attendees at the entrance of the EGM venue. Any person with a body temperature of over 37.3 degrees Celsius or found to be unwell will not be admitted to the EGM venue.

  • (ii) All attendees will be required to complete and sign a health declaration form before admission to the EGM venue and shall hold a green health code in Mainland China.

  • (iii) Every attendee will be required to wear a surgical face mask within the EGM venue. Please note that no masks will be provided at the EGM venue and attendees should bring and wear their own masks.

  • (iv) Seats at the EGM venue will be arranged in such a manner so as to allow appropriate social distancing. As a result, there will be limited capacity for Shareholders. The Company may limit the number of attendees at the EGM as may be necessary to avoid overcrowding.

  • (v) Any attendee who does not comply with the abovementioned measures will not be admitted to the EGM venue at the absolute discretion of the Company as permitted by law. The regulations of Beijing Municipality and the Company’s prevention and control measures against the COVID pandemic must be strictly followed.

  • (vi) No refreshments, corporate gifts or souvenirs will be served or distributed at the EGM.

– ii –

PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES FOR THE EGM

To the extent permitted under applicable laws, the Company reserves the right to deny entry into the EGM venue or require any person to leave the EGM venue in order to ensure the safety of the attendees at the EGM.

The Company will closely monitor the development of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company will ensure that the EGM will be conducted in compliance with the regulations or measures of the PRC government and Shareholders will not be deprived of their right of voting on the resolutions to be proposed at the EGM. Subject to the development of the COVID-19 situation, the Company may implement further precautionary measures in respect of the EGM, and may issue further announcement(s) on such measures as and when appropriate.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Pursuant to the Loan Agreements, at the dates of the respective Loan Agreements, Zhangbei Zhihui Energy had repaid Xizang Lineng and Shaanxi Baike all outstanding principal amounts and interest.

Information on the parties

Xizang Lineng is a company incorporated under the laws of the PRC, and an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Xizang Lineng is principally engaged in the sales of solar power and wind power related products in the PRC.

Shaanxi Baike is a company incorporated under the laws of the PRC, and an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Shaanxi Baike is principally engaged in (i) sales of renewable energy products; and (ii) new energy power system integration business, in the PRC.

Zhangbei Zhihui Energy is a limited liability company established in the PRC and is principally engaged in the construction, establishment, design, operation and consultation of solar power plant projects and other business relating to renewable energy. Zhangbei Zhihui Energy is owned indirectly by Mr. Huang and Mr. Huang Yuan Ming as to approximately 51% and 40%, respectively.

The remaining approximately 9% indirect interest of Zhangbei Zhihui Energy is owned by Ms. Liu Lijuan(劉麗娟). To the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief, having made all reasonable enquiry, Ms. Liu Lijuan(劉麗娟)is a third party independent of the Company and its connected persons.

Reasons and benefits of the Loans

In the past, Zhangbei Zhihui Energy had also provided the Company with short-term loan advances for its short term working capital needs. As at 31 March 2020 and 31 March 2021, the amounts of short-term loan advances provided by Zhangbei Zhihui Energy in favour of the Company were RMB36,950,000 and RMB24,024,000, respectively.

The Loans were granted by the Group to Zhangbei Zhihui Energy at the request of Zhangbei Zhihui Energy, due to its temporary need for short-term working capital especially under the then COVID-19 pandemic situation. During the Availability Period, there had been repayments made by Zhangbei Zhihui Energy and/or its designated parties from time to time depending on their working capital position, and the entire actual principal amounts and interest of the Loans had been repaid by Zhangbei Zhihui Energy before the end of the relevant Availability Period. Furthermore, the interest rates charged on the Loans were based on national benchmarks in the PRC, and thus on normal commercial terms.

– 9 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Company had made credit assessments of Mr. Huang and Mr. Huang Yuan Ming, being two of the ultimate beneficial holders of Zhangbei Zhihui Energy as to approximately 51% and 40%, respectively. The Company had reviewed the value of the assets held by Mr. Huang, and the net assets of companies controlled by Mr. Huang Yuan Ming, and noted that the financial resources of Mr. Huang and Mr. Huang Yuan Ming were sufficient to cover the Loans.

Based on the above, the Directors (save for the independent non-executive Directors whose views shall be set out in the circular) believe that the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreements are on normal commercial terms and are fair and reasonable and that the Loan Agreements are in the interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole.

Although the Loans were granted without collateral, since (i) Zhangbei Zhihui Energy had also provided the Company with short-term loan advances for its short term working capital needs in the past, (ii) the Company had sufficient idle cash, (iii) the Company’s idle cash was mainly deposited in banks in the PRC with an interest rate lower than the Loan Interest rate, and (iv) the Company had performed the abovementioned credit checks on Mr. Huang and Mr. Huang Yuan Ming, the Directors nevertheless believe that the Loans were in the interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole.

GEM Listing Rules implications of the Loans

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Zhangbei Zhihui Energy, being a majority-controlled company held indirectly by Mr. Huang and Mr. Huang Yuan Ming, is an associate of Mr. Huang. Mr. Huang is a substantial Shareholder of the Company. Accordingly, Zhangbei Zhihui Energy is a connected person of the Company under the GEM Listing Rules and the Loans would have constituted connected transactions of the Company under Chapter 20 of the GEM Listing Rules.

Since the Loans were advanced within 12 months of each other, the Loans were required to be aggregated as a series of transactions pursuant to Rules 19.22 and 20.79 of the GEM Listing Rules. As the highest applicable percentage ratio of the Loans (on an aggregated basis) exceeds 25% but is below 100%, the Loans would have constituted non-exempt connected transactions of the Company and would have been subject to the reporting, announcement, circular, and Independent Shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 20 of the GEM Listing Rules.

In light of the above, the Loans (on an aggregated basis) would have also constituted major transactions on the part of the Company and would have been subject to the reporting, announcement and Independent Shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 19 of the GEM Listing Rules.

As the amount of the Loans (on an aggregated basis) exceeds 8% based on the assets ratio as defined in Rule 17.15 of the GEM Listing Rules, the Loans would have also been subject to the general disclosure obligation of Rule 17.17 of the GEM Listing Rules.

– 10 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

None of the Directors has any material interest in the transaction contemplated under any of the Loans. As such, none of the Directors were required to abstain from voting on the Board resolution in relation to the approval of the Loans and Loan Agreements.

THE LAND ACQUISITION

On 8 April 2022, the Company had, through Hebei Zhonghua, an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, won a bid at the Auction (by tender) for the Land Acquisition at a consideration of RMB17,000,000. Hebei Zhonghua entered into a confirmation letter with the Vendor on 8 April 2022 and entered into a land use rights transfer agreement with the Vendor in respect of the Land Acquisition on 15 April 2022.

A summary of some of the key terms of the Land Acquisition is set out in the following:

Consideration and payment

The consideration of the Land Acquisition is RMB17,000,000, all of which has been paid on or before 15 May 2022. The payment for the Land Acquisition was settled by the internal resources available to the Group.

The consideration is the price of the final bid made by Hebei Zhonghua at the Auction. As the Auction (by tender) is open to other bidders as well, the Directors consider that the consideration is fair and reasonable and in the interest of the Shareholders as a whole having taken into account the location and potential development prospects of the Land.

Hebei Zhonghua is a company incorporated under the laws of the PRC, and an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Hebei Zhonghua is principally engaged in (i) manufacturing of solar modules; and (ii) sales of solar power products, in the PRC.

The Company and the Group are principally engaged in (i) sales of renewable energy products; and (ii) new energy power system integration business, in the PRC.

The Vendor is a governmental body established by the PRC government and is responsible for, among other things, organizing the planning on use of land and natural resources.

To the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief, having made all reasonable enquiry, the Vendor and its ultimate beneficial owner(s) are third parties independent of the Company and its connected persons.

Basic information of the Land and the land use rights acquired

Please refer to Appendix II- Land Valuation Report.

Reasons and benefits of the Land Acquisition

As disclosed in the announcement of the Company dated 8 April 2022, the Group had previously considered setting up a solar modules production plant in Hebei. To this end, the Group had acquired the Land with the intention of setting up the solar modules production plant thereon. As explained in the announcement of the Company dated 8 April 2022, as the freight and insurance expenses involved in transporting components increase greatly with the distance of transportation, the Company believes that setting up a solar modules production plant near a project location will attract contractors of surrounding projects to purchase the Company’s components. Meanwhile, it can also provide a stable supply of goods for the Company’s key projects in Hebei, allowing the Company to better maintain quality control over its components, and bring synergy to its existing business. For example, it will have a positive impact on the sales of our existing solar related products, as the Company would be able to offer a more comprehensive suite of solar related products.

Based on the above, the Directors believe that the Land Acquisition is fair and reasonable, and is in the interests of the shareholders of the Company as a whole.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Financial impact on the Group

The consideration of the Land Acquisition is RMB17,000,000, all of which has been paid on or before 15 May 2022. The payment for the Land Acquisition was settled by the internal resources available to the Group. As a result of the above, the financial effects of the Land Acquisition to the Group are: (i) an increase of asset arising from the Land amounting to RMB17 million; and (ii) a decrease of net cash position by RMB17 million. Save as the abovementioned, the Directors consider that the Land Acquisition did not have any other material effect on the total assets, total liabilities and earnings of the Group.

GEM Listing Rules implications of the Land Acquisition

As the highest applicable percentage ratio of the Land Acquisition exceeds 25% but is below 100%, the Land Acquisition would have constituted a major transaction on the part of the Company and is subject to the reporting, announcement and Independent Shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 19 of the GEM Listing Rules.

REMEDIAL MEASURES

During the review of the annual results of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2022, the Transactions were identified. It was noted that the Loans would have constituted major transactions, connected transactions and advances to an entity, while the Land Acquisition would have constituted a major transaction, on the part of the Company under the GEM Listing Rules. The Board regretfully admits that the Company had failed to comply with the reporting, announcement and Independent Shareholders’ approval requirements under the GEM Listing Rules in respect of the Transactions (the ‘‘Non-Compliances’’), and that such Non-Compliances were due to the oversight of the Company, and can be avoided going forward.

Based upon the Group’s internal review of the Non-Compliances in June 2022, it was discovered that the Non-Compliances were due to a lack of understanding by the Group’s PRC operational teams that the Transactions were subject to reporting, announcement and Independent Shareholders’ approval requirements under the GEM Listing Rules. As such, the Group’s PRC operational teams had not informed the Group’s GEM Listing Rules compliance team of the Transactions in a timely fashion, and hence the Company did not make timely disclosure of the Transactions.

– 13 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

In order to prevent the occurrence of similar non-compliance incidents in the future and to comply with the requirements under the GEM Listing Rules, the Company has taken the following remedial measures:

  1. The Company has reviewed the ledger of its subsidiaries and checked for any transactions that are required to be disclosed under the GEM Listing Rules.

  2. The Company has engaged an independent internal control consultant to conduct a scenario analysis on the Non-Compliances and a review on the internal control system and policies of the Group.

  3. On the recommendation of the internal control consultant, the Company has adopted a Connected Party Transaction Policy shortly after the Company’s discovery of the Non-Compliances. The Connected Party Transaction Policy covers areas including identification of connected parties, approval procedures of connected party transactions, etc. The Connected Party Transaction Policy has been circulated to the Directors and PRC operation team.

  4. The Company has circulated the internal memo within the Group for identifying and reporting notifiable transactions. The Company has adopted a Notifiable Transaction Policy and a flow chart which including identifying notifiable transactions, reporting procedures, etc. The Notifiable Transaction Policy and a flow chart have been circulated to the Directors and PRC operation team.

  5. The Company will seek legal advice and/or other professional advice from time to time as and when it is necessary to ensure proper compliance with the relevant requirements under the GEM Listing Rules.

  6. The Company has required major shareholders to declare their most up-to-date connected parties. Furthermore, the Company has performed preliminary checking for any transactions conducted with such connected parties.

  7. The Company will arrange for training sessions for all of the Directors and PRC operation team in relation to the relevant GEM Listing Rules.

The Company takes the incident seriously and will strive to avoid the re-occurrence of similar events in the future.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

The following is the letter of advice from Kingsway Capital Limited to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders prepared related to advancement of Loans for the purpose of inclusion in this circular.

==> picture [70 x 33] intentionally omitted <==

20 September 2022

The Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders of China Technology Industry Group Limited

Dear Sirs,

MAJOR AND CONNECTED TRANSACTION IN RELATION TO ADVANCEMENT OF LOANS

INTRODUCTION

We refer to our appointment as the Independent Financial Adviser to advise the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders in relation to the Loan Agreements and the Loans, details of which are set out in the Letter from the Board (the ‘‘Letter from the Board’’) contained in the circular of the Company dated 20 September 2022 issued to the Shareholders (the ‘‘Circular’’), of which this letter forms part. Capitalised terms used in this letter shall have the same meanings as those defined in the Circular, unless otherwise specified.

On 27 June 2022, each of Xizang Lineng and Shaanxi Baike entered into the Loan Agreements with Zhangbei Zhihui Energy, pursuant to which Xizang Lineng and Shaanxi Baike granted the Loans to Zhangbei Zhihui Energy.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Zhangbei Zhihui Energy, being a majority-controlled company held indirectly by Mr. Huang and Mr. Huang Yuan Ming, is an associate of Mr. Huang. Mr. Huang is a substantial Shareholder of the Company. Accordingly, Zhangbei Zhihui Energy is a connected person of the Company under the GEM Listing Rules and the Loans would have constituted connected transactions of the Company under Chapter 20 of the GEM Listing Rules.

Since the Loans were advanced within 12 months of each other, the Loans were required to be aggregated as a series of transactions pursuant to Rules 19.22 and 20.79 of the GEM Listing Rules. As the highest applicable percentage ratio of the Loans (on an aggregated basis) exceeds 25% but is below 100%, the Loans would have constituted non-exempt connected transactions of the Company and would have been subject to the reporting, announcement, circular, and Independent Shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 20 of the GEM Listing Rules.

The Loans (on an aggregated basis) would have also constituted major transactions on the part of the Company and would have been subject to the reporting, announcement and Independent Shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 19 of the GEM Listing Rules.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

PRINCIPAL FACTORS AND REASONS CONSIDERED

In formulating our opinion and recommendations to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders in respect of the Loan Agreements and the Loans, we have taken into consideration the following principal factors and reasons:

I. Information of the Xizang Lineng, Shaanxi Baike and the Group

Xizang Lineng is a company incorporated under the laws of the PRC, and an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Xizang Lineng is principally engaged in the sales of solar power and wind power related products in the PRC.

Shaanxi Baike is a company incorporated under the laws of the PRC, and an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Both Shaanxi Baike and the Group are principally engaged in (i) sales of renewable energy products; and (ii) new energy power system integration business, in the PRC.

The table below sets forth a summary of the financial highlights of the Group for the three years ended 31 March 2022 as extracted from the 2021 Annual Report and the 2022 Annual Report:

For the year ended 31 March

(Loss)/profit for the year (30,853) 68,992 (3,729)

Comparison between the year ended 31 March 2021 and 2020

The total revenue of the Group increased from approximately RMB91.1 million for the year ended 31 March 2020 to approximately RMB276.9 million for the year ended 31 March 2021, representing an increase of approximately 204.0%. According to the 2021 Annual Report, the increase of total revenue of the Group was mainly attributable to revenue generated from the sales of renewable energy products of approximately RMB231.1 million during the year ended 31 March 2021 where the revenue generated therefrom during the year ended 31 March 2020 was approximately RMB25.8 million, which was partly offset by the decrease in revenue generated during the year ended 31 March 2021 from the rendering of new energy power system integration services by approximately RMB19.4 million when compared to the year ended 31 March 2020.

– 22 –

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

The Group recorded a net loss of approximately RMB30.9 million for the year ended 31 March 2020 and recorded profit for the year of approximately RMB69.0 million for the year ended 31 March 2021.

Comparison between the year ended 31 March 2022 and 2021

The total revenue of the Group decreased from approximately RMB276.9 million for the year ended 31 March 2021 to approximately RMB72.2 million for the year ended 31 March 2022, representing a decrease of approximately 73.9%. According to the 2022 Annual Report, the decrease of total revenue of the Group was mainly due to the completion of the 500MW solar power project and 300MW wind power project in Zhangbei county, the PRC, during the year ended 31 March 2022. 500MW solar power project and 300MW wind power project in Zhangbei county, the PRC, have contributed over RMB507 million revenue to the Group over past three years.

III. Terms and reasons for and benefits of the Loans

1. Principal terms of the Loan Agreements

On 27 June 2022, each of Xizang Lineng and Shaanxi Baike entered into the Loan Agreements with Zhangbei Zhihui Energy. The principal terms of the Loan Agreements are as follows:

Date:

27 June 2022 (after trading hours of the Stock Exchange)

Parties:

(1) Xizang Lineng (as the lender under the Xizang Lineng Loan) (2) Shaanxi Baike (as the lender under the Shaanxi Baike Loan)

– 24 –

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Interest: the Company is entitled to Loan interest at the 1-year loan prime rate issued by the National Interbank Funding Centre, i.e. approximately 3.7% per annum, accruing from the respective dates of the first drawdown of the Loans up to the date of the respective repayment of the principal of the Loans

Repayment:

Zhangbei Zhihui Energy shall repay each drawdown in full, together with accrued interest and any other amount owing in respect of such drawdown no later than the end of the respective Availability Period. Any amount repaid will not be available for drawdown by Zhangbei Zhihui Energy. The principal amounts of Xizang Lineng Loan and Shaanxi Baike Loan were repaid in full on 15 December 2021 and 30 March 2022, respectively. The interest under the Loans have been repaid in full as at the date of the Announcement.

2. Reasons for and benefits of the Loan Agreements

As stated in the Letter from the Board, Zhangbei Zhihui Energy had also provided the Company with short-term loan advances for its short term working capital needs in the past. As at 31 March 2020 and 31 March 2021, the amounts of short-term loan advances provided by Zhangbei Zhihui Energy in favour of the Company were RMB36,950,000 and RMB24,024,000, respectively.

The Loans were granted by the Group to Zhangbei Zhihui Energy at the request of Zhangbei Zhihui Energy, due to its temporary need for short-term working capital especially under the then COVID-19 pandemic situation. As such, on the condition that the business operation of the Company was not affected and the Company has idle cash, the Loans granted to Zhangbei Zhihui Energy would be able to receive interest income in return. As advised by the Management, during the Availability Period, there had been repayments made by Zhangbei Zhihui Energy and/or its designated parties from time to time depending on their working capital position, and the entire actual principal amounts and interest of the Loans had been repaid by Zhangbei Zhihui Energy before the end of the relevant Availability Period. We understand from the Management that each of Xizang Lineng and Shaanxi Baike entered into the Loan Agreements with Zhangbei Zhihui Energy to record, confirm and agree on as well as to govern the arrangements concerning the Loans and to recomply with the requirement to enter into a written agreement for connected transactions under Rule 20.32 of the GEM Listing Rules in relation to the grant of the Loans. Xizang Lineng and Shaanxi Baike have earned interest under the terms of the Loan Agreements which the interest rates charged on the Loans were based on national benchmarks in the PRC.

– 25 –

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

In assessing the fairness and reasonableness of the Loan Agreements, we have considered:

(a) the financial position and cash availability of the Group

Based on the financial statements of the Group as at 31 March 2020 and 31 March 2021, the Group has bank balances and cash of approximately RMB4.1 million and RMB1.9 million respectively. In addition, based on the bank and cash balances record of the Group, the Group has at all time maintained positive bank balances and cash during the Availability Period. As confirmed by the Management, such balance of cash was more than sufficient for the working capital needs of the Group’s operation. In addition, based on the monthly bank balances record of the Group, the Group maintained sufficient bank balance for its daily operation. As further confirmed by the Management, the Group did not encounter any liquidity problem during the Availability Period.

(b) Default risk

As stated in the Letter from the Board, the use of the Loans by Zhangbei Zhihui Energy was due to its short-term working capital needs especially under the current COVID-19 pandemic situation. According to a schedule of the Loans and repayment record provided by the Company, we noted that there had been repayment of the Loans from Zhangbei Zhihui Energy from time to time and among the loans granted during the Availability Period, the period of repayment by Zhangbei Zhihui Energy was in fact no longer than 182 days. Further, we have selected and checked to all repayment records during the Availability Period, all outstanding principal amount and the Loan Interest of the Loans have been repaid from Zhangbei Zhihui Energy and its designated parties to the Company. The Company represented that there has been no loan granted to Zhangbei Zhihui Energy subsequent to the Loans were fully repaid. The Company had also made credit assessments of Mr. Huang and Mr. Huang Yuan Ming, being two of the ultimate beneficial holders of Zhangbei Zhihui Energy as to approximately 51% and 40%, respectively. The Company had reviewed the value of the assets held by Mr. Huang, and the net assets of companies controlled by Mr. Huang Yuan Ming, and noted that the financial resources of Mr. Huang and Mr. Huang Yuan Ming were sufficient to cover the Loans. In this regard, we have obtained and checked the share register for the assets held by Mr. Huang and the financial statements of company controlled by Mr. Huang Yuan Ming for the year ended 31 December 2021 and three months ended 31 March 2022 noted that it was in net assets position during the respective year and period.

– 26 –

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Having considered that Zhangbei Zhihui Energy (i) repaid the Loans with no longer than 182 days during the Availability Period; (ii) had no default history; (iii) had its ultimate beneficial holders with sufficient net assets to cover the Loans; and (iv) had no outstanding loan as at the date of the Loan Agreements, we concur with the Management that there was no default risk of the Loans.

(c) Interest rates and terms of maturity of the Loan Agreements

Pursuant to the Loan Agreements, each of Xizang Lineng and Shaanxi Baike are entitled to Loan Interest at the relevant loan prime rate issued by the National Interbank Funding Centre accruing from the date of grant of the relevant Loans up to the repayment date. We have obtained the calculation schedules of the loan interests in respect of the Loans during the Availability Period and reperformed the calculation thereof. According to the calculation schedules, the loan interest rates applied in the calculation were 3.7% during the Availability Period. We noted that such interest rates were in line with the one-year loan prime rate as published monthly by the People’s Bank of China as of the date of the Loan Agreements entered. Given the Availability Period was about one year, we considered the interest rate of the Loans by benchmarking with the one-year loan prime rate is reasonable. As further advised by the Management, the Group’s idle cash were mainly placed in banks in the PRC or as demand deposits in banks in the PRC. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the prevailing benchmark interest rate for demand deposits in the PRC as promulgated by the People’s Bank of China was approximately 1.50% per annum. Therefore, it is more favourable to the Group and the Shareholders to receive interests from the Loans with interest rate of 3.70% per annum than placing the idle cash in banks as demand deposits. In addition, in order to assess the fairness and reasonableness of the interest rate of the Loans, we have conducted independent research from the public domain on comparable transactions (the ‘‘Comparable Transactions’’) which (i) were announced by companies listed on the Stock Exchange from 1 January 2022 and up to 31 March 2022 (the ‘‘Review Period’’), which in our view represents a sufficient period of time to reflect the prevailing market conditions for conducting such transactions as the Review Period covers the entire Availability Period; (ii) involved the provision of financial assistances by way of loans by companies listed in Hong Kong; (iii) constituted connected transactions of the issuers under the Listing Rules or GEM Listing Rules. Shareholders should note that the business, operations, and prospects of the Comparable Transactions may not be identical to those of the Company and we have not conducted any in-depth investigation into the respective businesses and operations of the Comparable Transactions. However, we consider that the Comparable Transactions could provide a general reference as to the common market practice of companies listed in Hong Kong for conducting similar transactions under the Loan Agreements. To the best of our knowledge and on a best-effort basis, we have identified an exhaustive list of 29 Comparable Transactions which fit our selection criteria.

– 29 –

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

As shown in the above table, we note that:

  • (1) the interest rates of the Comparable Transactions ranged from nil to 12.00% per annum with an average of approximately 5.89% per annum. The interest rate of the Loans of 3.70% is within the range of the Comparable Transactions. There are also certain Comparable Transactions involving larger loan amount but with nil or lower interest rate. For instance, the loans provided by Xinyuan Property Management Service (Cayman) Ltd (Stock Code: 1895) in aggregate amounted to approximately HK$111.9 million were at nil interest rate, and the loans provided by Joy City Property Limited (Stock Code: 207) amounted to RMB1,100 million were at interest rate of 1.5% per annum;

  • (2) the interest rate of the Loans was near the low-end range of Comparable Transaction and was lower than the average interest rate of the Comparable Transactions. Despite such, we noted that (i) out of the 29 Comparable Transactions, the interest rates for 14 Comparable Transactions were lower than the average interest rates of approximately 5.89% per annum; and (ii) among the 15 Comparable Transactions which interest rates were higher than the average interest rates of approximately 5.89% per annum, after excluding the Comparable Transactions for China Communication Construction Company Limited (Stock Code: 1800) and Greentown China Holdings Limited (Stock Code: 3900) where term to maturity were not disclosed, the term to maturity for 25 Comparable Transactions were longer than the Availability Period of the Loans and therefore, it is reasonable for them to charge a higher interest rate. Based on the aforesaid and also taken in account the fact that Zhangbei Zhihui Energy has granted certain loans to the Group since June 2019 which was interest-free and unsecured, we are of the view that the interest rate of the Loans, although was lower than the average interest rate of the Comparable Transactions and was near the lowend range of Comparable Transaction, is reasonable and not exceptional; and

  • (3) the terms to maturity of the Comparable Transactions ranged from 2 months to 60 months with an average term to maturity of approximately 21 months. The term of the Loans ranged from 9 to 10 months falls within the range and below the average of that of the Comparable Transactions.

– 30 –

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Based on the above, considering that (i) the Company has sufficient idle cash and the Loans were granted without affecting the business operation of the Group; and (ii) there is no default risk on the principal amount and interest income of the Loans as all outstanding principal amount and the Loan Interest of the Loans had been repaid to the Company and no Loans have been granted to Zhangbei Zhihui Energy and its designated parties subsequent to the Availability Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date; and (iii) the Company would be able to receive interest income of approximately RMB630,871.60 in return at interest rate of approximately 3.70% per annum, which is higher than the prevailing benchmark interest rate for demand deposit in the PRC as promulgated by the People’s Bank of China of 1.50% per annum, we concur with the view of the Management that the terms of the Loan Agreements are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

3. Review of internal control and risk management procedures in respect of the Loan Agreements

As disclosed in the Board Letter, during the review of the annual results of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2022, the Loans were identified. It was noted that the Loans would have constituted major transactions, connected transactions and advances to an entity under the GEM Listing Rules. As advised by the Management, the failure by the Company to comply with the reporting, announcement and Independent Shareholders’ approval requirements under the GEM Listing Rules in respect of the Loans was due to the oversight of the Company and lack of understanding by the Group’s PRC operational teams that the Transactions were subject to reporting, announcement and Independent Shareholders’ approval requirements under the GEM Listing Rules.

Upon becoming aware of the incidents, the Management has sought professional advice from its legal advisors immediately as to the requirements under the GEM Listing Rules for the Loans. The Company was informed that the Loans would constitute a financial assistance from the Group to its connected person, and that the Company would not have complied in full with the requirements under Chapter 19 and Chapter 20 of the GEM Listing Rules. In the circumstances, the Company has immediately taken all initiatives to re-comply with the GEM Listing Rules as soon as it can. The Loan Agreements were entered into by the respective parties to record, confirm and agree on as well as to govern the arrangements concerning the Loans from each of Xizang Lineng and Shaanxi Baike to Zhangbei Zhihui Energy, and to re-comply with the requirement to enter into a written agreement for connected transactions under Rule 20.32 of GEM Listing Rules. Xizang Lineng and Shaanxi Baike were also benefit from the interest income under the terms of the Loan Agreements.

– 31 –

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

In order to prevent the occurrence of similar non-compliance incidents in the future and to comply with the requirements under the GEM Listing Rules, the Company has taken the following remedial measures:

  1. The Company has reviewed the ledger of its subsidiaries and checked for any transactions that are required to be disclosed under the GEM Listing Rules.

  2. The Company has engaged an independent internal control consultant to conduct a scenario analysis on the Non-Compliances and a review on the internal control system and policies of the Group.

  3. On the recommendation of the internal control consultant, the Company has adopted a Connected Party Transaction Policy shortly after the Company’s discovery of the Non-Compliances. The Connected Party Transaction Policy covers areas including identification of connected parties, approval procedures of connected party transactions, etc. The Connected Party Transaction Policy has been circulated to the Directors and PRC operation team.

  4. The Company has circulated the internal memo within the Group for identifying and reporting notifiable transactions. The Company has adopted a Notifiable Transaction Policy and a flow chart which including identifying notifiable transactions, reporting procedures, etc. The Notifiable Transaction Policy and a flow chart have been circulated to the Directors and PRC operation team.

  5. The Company will seek legal advice and/or other professional advice from time to time as and when it is necessary to ensure proper compliance with the relevant requirements under the GEM Listing Rules.

  6. The Company has required major shareholders to declare their most up-to-date connected parties. Furthermore, the Company has performed preliminary checking for any transactions conducted with such connected parties.

  7. The Company will arrange for training sessions for all of the Directors and PRC operation team in relation to the relevant GEM Listing Rules.

– 32 –

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

In this regard, we have reviewed the record and enquired with the Management in relation to the details of such internal control and risk management procedures, in particular (i) Connected Party Transaction Policy adopted by the Company in June 2022 in relation to Chapter 20 of the GEM Listing Rules; and (ii) Notifiable Transaction Policy and a flow chart adopted by the Company in July 2022 in relation to Chapter 19 of the GEM Listing Rules. In addition, the Management has also reviewed the relevant records of the Group and confirmed that no other connected transactions of the Company are not in full compliance with the GEM Listing Rules. Based on the above, we concur with the Management’s view that adequate measures were in place to ensure full compliance with the GEM Listing Rules by the Company in future and the interests of the Shareholders would be safeguarded.

IV. Financial effect of the Loan Agreements

(i) Earnings

Pursuant to the Loan Agreements, the Company is entitled to Loan interest at the 1- year loan prime rate issued by the National Interbank Funding Centre, i.e. approximately 3.7% per annum, accruing from the respective dates of the first drawdown of the Loans up to the date of the respective repayment of the principal of the Loans. The earnings attributable to shareholders of the Company was enhanced by interest income derived from the Loans, being approximately RMB630,871.60.

(ii) Net asset value

The advancement of the Loans was entirely financed by the Group’s internal resources. During the Availability Period, there had been repayments made by Zhangbei Zhihui Energy and/or its designated parties from time to time depending on their working capital position, and the entire actual principal amounts and interest of the Loans had been repaid by Zhangbei Zhihui Energy before the end of the relevant Availability Period. Saved for the expected increase in earnings resulting from the interest on the Loans during the year ended 31 March 2022, there is no material impact on net asset value from the Loan Agreements.

Shareholders should note that above analysis are for illustrative purpose only and do not purport to represent the financial position of the Group as a result of the Loan Agreements.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Accordingly, we advise the Independent Shareholders, and recommend the Independent Board Committee to advise the Independent Shareholders to vote in favour of the proposed resolutions to be proposed at the EGM to ratify the Loan Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereunder.

The Company has obtained the relevant confirmation as required under Rule 19.66(13) of the GEM Listing Rules.

4. FINANCIAL AND TRADING PROSPECTS OF GROUP

The Group is principally engaged in (i) sales of renewable energy products and (ii) new energy power system integration business.

As disclosed in the Company’s annual report for the year ended 31 March 2022, the Group’s revenue amounted to approximately RMB72.2 million, representing a decrease of approximately 73.9 per cent as compared with approximately RMB276.9 million recorded for the year ended 31 March 2021, mainly attributable to the fact that, the Company had recently completed its 500MW solar power project, and 300MW wind power project, in Zhangbei county, the PRC (collectively, the ‘‘Zhangbei Project’’), being its only project in recent years. After the completion of the Zhangbei Project, the Company had signed the sale and installation of solar modules agreement in relation to the Hebei Project (as defined in the supplemental announcement in relation to the third quarterly report for the 9 months ended 31 December 2021 of the Company dated 8 April 2022), for a consideration of RMB48,000,000.

The Group’s gross profit margin was approximately 18.2% for the year ended 31 March 2022, as compared to approximately 18.9% for the year ended 31 March 2021. The decrease in gross profit margin was mainly attributable to the increasing cost on procuring renewable energy products. With the economic activities resumed to normal after the outbreak of COVID-19 being substantially under control in 2021, many companies rush to purchase renewable energy products in order to catch up with the progress of the delayed projects. As such, the price of renewable energy products increased.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION IN RELATION TO THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

The revenue generated from the sales of renewable energy products was approximately RMB72.2 million for the year ended 31 March 2022 (2021: approximately RMB231.1 million), accounting for approximately 100.0% of the Group’s total revenue (2021: approximately 83.4%). The decrease in the revenue was mainly due to the completion of the Zhangbei Project during the year ended 31 March 2022. Zhangbei Project has contributed over RMB507 million revenue to the Group over past 3 years.

There was no revenue generated from the new energy power system integration business during the year ended 31 March 2022 (2021: RMB45.9 million).

The Group has been identifying and exploring other new business opportunities in the renewable energy sector and to broaden its sources of income to bring return to the Group and its shareholders.

Considering the PRC government’s long-term encouragement on distributed photovoltaic power generation, the Group will continue to look for other solar energy generation projects and new energy power system integration services. The Group has been negotiating and securing new contracts for the new energy power system integration business.

The Group will finance its future business plans by internally generated cash flow and borrowings.

Leveraging on the prudent and experienced management and the strong and determined workforce of the Group, the Group will strive to maintain and expand its operations further, thus bringing greater returns to the Shareholders.

5. FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF LOANS AND LAND ACQUISITION ON EARNINGS, ASSETS AND LIABILITIES OF GROUP

During the Availability Period, there had been repayments made by Zhangbei Zhihui Energy and/or its designated parties from time to time depending on their working capital position, and the entire actual principal amounts and interest of the Loans had been repaid by Zhangbei Zhihui Energy before the end of the relevant Availability Period.

China Technology Industry Group Limited

Dear Sirs/Madams,

INSTRUCTIONS

In accordance with the instructions of China Technology Industry Group Limited (the ‘‘Company’’) and its subsidiaries (hereinafter together referred to as the ‘‘Group’’) for us to carry out the valuation of the property interests located in Dong Fang Hong Cha Chang, Paitou Town, Zhuji City, Zhejiang Province, the People’s Republic of China (the ‘‘PRC’’) held by the Group. We confirm that we have carried out inspection, made relevant enquiries and searches and obtained such further information as we consider necessary for the purpose of providing you with our opinion of the Market Value of the property interests as at 31 July 2022 (the ‘‘Valuation Date’’).

VALUATION STANDARDS

In valuing the property interests, we have complied with all the requirements set out in Chapter 8 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on GEM issued by The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the ‘‘GEM Listing Rules’’), the HKIS Valuation Standards (2020 Edition) published by the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors and the International Valuation Standards published from time to time by the International Valuation Standards Council.

BASIS OF VALUATION

Our valuation is carried out on a Market Value basis, which is defined as ‘‘the estimated amount for which an asset or liability should exchange on the valuation date between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction, after proper marketing and where the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion’’.

LAND VALUATION REPORT

APPENDIX II

VALUATION ASSUMPTIONS

Our valuation of the property excludes an estimated price inflated or deflated by special terms or circumstances such as atypical financing, sale and leaseback arrangement, special considerations or concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale, or any element of special value or costs of sale and purchase or offset for any associated taxes.

No allowance has been made in our report for any charges, mortgages or amounts owing on any of the property interests valued nor for any expenses or taxation which may be incurred in effecting a sale. Unless otherwise stated, it is assumed that the properties are free from encumbrances, restrictions and outgoings of an onerous nature, which could affect their values.

In the course of our valuation of the property in the PRC, we have assumed that transferable land use rights in respect of the property for a specific term at nominal annual land use fees have been granted and that any premium has already been fully settled. We have relied on the advice given by the Group regarding the title to the property. For the purpose of our valuation, we have assumed that the grantee has an enforceable title to the property.

In valuing the property in the PRC, we have assumed that the grantees or the users of the property have free and uninterrupted rights to use or to assign the property for the whole of the unexpired term as granted.

Unless noted in the report, vacant possession is assumed for the property concerned.

Moreover, we have assumed that the design and construction of the properties are/will be in compliance with the local planning regulations and requirements and had been/would have been duly examined and approved by the relevant authorities.

Continued uses assumes the properties will be used for the purposes for which the properties are designed and built, or to which they are currently adapted. The valuation on the property in continued uses does not represent the amount that might be realised from piecemeal disposition of the property in the open market.

No environmental impact study has been ordered or made. Full compliance with applicable national, provincial and local environmental regulations and laws is assumed. Moreover, it is assumed that all required licences, consents or other legislative or administrative authority from any local, provincial or national government or private entity or organisation either have been or can be obtained or renewed for any use which the report covers.

It is also assumed that all applicable zoning and use regulations and restrictions have been complied with unless nonconformity has been stated, defined and considered in the valuation report.

APPENDIX II

LAND VALUATION REPORT

We have further assumed that the properties were not transferred or involved in any contentious or non-contentious dispute as at the valuation date. We have also assumed that there was not any material change of the properties in between dates of our inspection and the valuation date.

VALUATION METHODOLOGY

In the course of our valuation, unless otherwise stated, we have valued the properties in their designated uses with the understanding that the properties will be used as such (hereafter referred to as ‘‘continued uses’’).

In valuing the property interests, we have valued by market approach which is generally by comparing recent market evidence of similar properties located in the neighborhood area of the property. Adjustments are considered to reflect the differences in various aspects including market conditions, size, location, time, age, quality and any other relevant factors when comparing such sales against the property. This approach is commonly used to value properties where reliable market evidence is available.

TITLE INVESTIGATION

We have been provided with copies of documents in relation to the title of the property interests in the PRC. Where possible, we have examined the original documents to verify the existing title to the property interest in the PRC and any material encumbrance that might be attached to the property interests or any tenancy amendment. All documents have been used for reference only and all dimensions, measurements and areas are approximate. In the course of our valuation, we have relied considerably on the legal opinion given by the Company’s PRC legal adviser – DeHeng Law Offices, concerning the validity of title of the property interests in the PRC.

SITE INVESTIGATION

We have inspected the exteriors and, where possible, the interior of the Property. The site inspection was carried out on 26 July 2022 by Cassie Li (Analyst of Masterpiece Valuation Advisory Limited). However, we have not carried out an investigation on site to determine the suitability of ground conditions and services for any development thereon. Our valuation has been prepared on the assumption that these aspects are satisfactory. We have further assumed that there is no significant pollution or contamination in the locality which may affect any future developments.
