requirements in respect of the Guarantee and the Pledge and the requirement to seek advice from its compliance adviser before entering into the Guarantee Agreement and the Pledge Contracts, and constituted non-compliance with the Listing Rules.

On 29 December 2021, Shanghai Xuquan, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into the Guarantee Agreement with Hangzhou Ruiyang, a business partner of the Company and, despite its interest in the Company as disclosed in Appendix II to this circular, an independent third party of the Company, pursuant to which, Shanghai Xuquan shall provide a guarantee for the amount of RMB496 million borrowed by Hangzhou Ruiyang from Ping An Bank and receive 8% annual guarantee fee from Hangzhou Ruiyang.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  • (4) in order to ensure the safety of the fund of Shanghai Xuquan, a controlling shareholder and related party of Hangzhou Ruiyuan, which despite Hangzhou Ruiyang’s interest in the Company as disclosed in Appendix II to this circular, is an independent third party of the Company and its connected persons, shall provide a counter-guarantee of RMB500 million to Shanghai Xuquan from 29 December 2021 to 7 January 2023;

  • (5) the Guarantee Agreement shall be terminated if the borrowing application with Ping An Bank is not approved; and

  • (6) if Hangzhou Ruiyuan did not perform its obligations pursuant to its borrowing from Ping An Bank and causing Ping An Bank to require Shanghai Xuquan to perform its guarantee responsibilities, Shanghai Xuquan has the right to require Hangzhou Ruiyuan to repay all the losses and an amount for breach of contract of RMB2 million.

Pursuant to the counter-guarantee arrangement under the Guarantee Agreement, the controlling shareholder and related party of Hangzhou Ruiyang, namely Deqing Kaisheng Enterprise Management Co., Ltd. (德清凱昇企業管理有限公司) (the ‘‘Guarantor’’), undertakes to provide joint and several liability guarantee for all the obligations under the Guarantee Agreement entered into between Shanghai Xuquan and Hangzhou Ruiyang as well as the loan agreement entered into between Hangzhou Ruiyang and Ping An Bank, including but not limited to all the obligations that Hangzhou Ruiyang should perform, the liability for breach of contract or the liability for compensation.

In making reasonable inquiries about Hangzhou Ruiyang and the Guarantor, the Company has conducted financial due diligence and assessment of Hangzhou Ruiyang’s financial situation, and conducted research on its market and industry to understand the financial and credit status of Hangzhou Ruiyang and the Guarantor. In particular, the Company has considered the corporate information, principal business activities, operating data (including revenue, gross profit, gross profit margin) of Hangzhou Ruiyang and whether it was subject to any legal proceedings. Accordingly, the Board had evaluated the ability of repayment and counter-guarantee by Hangzhou Ruiyang and the Guarantor, and concluded that the financial and credit risks of Hangzhou Ruiyang and the Guarantor are likely to be low and manageable.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The principal terms of the Pledge Contracts are set out below:

Dates:

Parties:

29 December 2021 (Pledge Contract 1) 29 December 2021 (Pledge Contract 2) 6 January 2022 (Pledge Contract 3) (1) Shanghai Xuquan, as the pledger (2) Ping An Bank, as the pledgee

To the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief, having made all reasonable enquiries, Ping An Bank and its ultimate beneficial owners are third parties independent of the Company and its connected persons.

Deposits to be pledged Certificates of deposits of a total value of RMB504.5 and interest income: million, deposited by Shanghai Xuquan into the pledge account designated by Ping An Bank in order to provide guarantees for Hangzhou Ruiyang, Shanghai Xuquan will receive 8% of the total amount of the Pledge Contracts as the guarantee fee per year. In addition, Shanghai Xuquan will be entitled to 2.1% interest income per year for the deposits pledged at Ping An Bank.

Terms of the Pledge:

  • (1) The Pledge will be effective from the effective dates of the Pledge Contracts until the repayment of RMB496 million by Hangzhou Ruiyang; and

  • (2) Shanghai Xuquan will be entitled to 2.1% interest income per year pursuant to the Pledge.

The term of the Guarantee and the Pledge was starting from the signing of the Guarantee Agreement and Pledge Contracts to the date when Hangzhou Ruiyang repays its relevant borrowings (including any penalty and interest) to Ping An Bank in full, but in any event Hangzhou Ruiyang must repay in full not more than one year after Hangzhou Ruiyang entered into relevant borrowing agreements with Ping An Bank.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF ENTERING INTO THE GUARANTEE AGREEMENT AND THE PLEDGE CONTRACTS

The Board considers that entering into the Guarantee and the Pledge would provide additional income on a short term basis and can strengthen its business resources with its business partners. The guarantee fee of 8% and the interest income of 2.1% is based on the commercial discussion between the parties with references to (i) the interest rate range for the central bank’s one-year loan in the PRC market of 4% to 10% for the guarantee fee of 8%, and the interest rate range for the central bank’s one-year deposit rate of 1.5% to

– 6 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

2.78% for the interest income of 2.1%; (ii) the industry to which the Company belongs; and (iii) the terms and the scale of the Guarantee and the Pledge. The central bank’s one-year loan interest rate and one-year deposit rate were used as the benchmarks in determining the guarantee fee and interest rate of the Guarantee and the Pledge, since such interest rates are relatively fair and commonly considered in similar transactions of the Company and transactions of other companies listed on the Stock Exchange. Taking into consideration that the term of the Guarantee and the Pledge was within one year, the Board is therefore of the view that such interest rates are appropriate benchmarks for determining the guarantee fee and interest rate of the Guarantee and the Pledge. The Board considers that the terms of the Guarantee Agreement and the Pledge Contracts (including the guarantee fee and interest rate of the deposits) are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

RELEASE OF THE PLEDGE CONTRACTS

As at the Latest Practicable Date, all the Pledge Contracts were released with the certificates of deposits pledged in the aggregate amount of RMB504.5 million returned to Shanghai Xuquan from Ping An Bank.

INFORMATION OF THE PARTIES

(德清凱昇企業管理有限公司) and 5% by Wei Qiang (魏強); Deqing Kaisheng Enterprise Management Co., Ltd. is held by Lai Haiping (賴海萍).

The Company became acquainted with Hangzhou Ruiyang starting from August 2021, when the Company entered into a strategic cooperation agreement with it.

IMPLICATIONS OF THE LISTING RULES

As the Guarantee Agreement, Pledge Contract 1, Pledge Contract 2 and Pledge Contract 3 were entered into within a 12 month period and entered into between the same parties or are otherwise related, the Guarantee Agreement and the Pledge Contracts were required to be aggregated pursuant to Rule 14.22 of the Listing Rules.

As one or more of the applicable percentage ratio in respect of the Guarantee Agreement and the Pledge Contracts exceed 25% but all of them are less than 75%, the Guarantee and the Pledge constitute a major transaction of the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules, and is subject to reporting, announcement, circular and shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules. Due to the inadvertent mistake of the Company, the Company has breached Rule 14.34, 14.38A and 14.40 of the Listing Rules in failing to comply with the reporting, announcement, circular and shareholders’ approval requirements in respect of the Guarantee and the Pledge and Rule 3A.23(2) of the Listing Rules in failing to seek advice from its compliance adviser at the time the Guarantee Agreement and the Pledge Contracts were entered into, and constituted non-compliance of the Listing Rules.

REMEDIAL MEASURES

In view of the non-compliance of the Listing Rules and to ensure proper compliance with the Listing Rules in the future, the Company deeply regrets its failure to make timely disclosures in respect of the Guarantee Agreement and the Pledge Contracts and is promptly carrying out remedial measures to protect the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole as follows:

  • (a) the Company issued the announcement dated 22 April 2022 disclosing the details of the transactions in accordance with the Listing Rules in order to keep all Shareholders informed;

  • (b) the Company issued the circular disclosing further details of the transactions in accordance with the relevant provisions of Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules in order to keep all Shareholders informed;

  • (c) the Company arranged to release the Pledge with the certificates of deposits pledged in the aggregate amount of RMB504.5 million returned to Shanghai Xuquan from Ping An Bank;

In connection with remedial measures (d) to (h) above, the Company has implemented since mid-July 2022 further internal control enhancements over the policies and procedures to identify any potential notifiable transactions and to ensure that these transactions are well assessed and analysed in compliance with the Listing Rules. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company has adopted the following measures and has already updated, among others, the following policies and procedures which have been reviewed and approved by the Directors and such policies and procedures are effective since mid-July 2022:

(1) Setting up minimum contract amount to identify any potential notifiable transactions

With reference to the latest published financial statements, the chief financial officer (‘‘CFO’’) and company secretary of the Company (‘‘Company Secretary’’) will determine the minimum contract amount for identifying the potential notifiable transaction on a half-year basis. The finance department, all senior management of each department and the Board will need to agree on the minimum contract amount.

All contracts not entered in the ordinary and usual course of business with an amount exceeding the minimum contract amount are classified as potential notifiable transactions.

(2) Escalating any potential notifiable transaction to the CFO

The senior management of each department will be responsible to assess if there is any potential notifiable transaction before entering the contract approval process. Upon identifying any potential notifiable transaction, the senior management of each department must notify the CFO.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

(3) Involving professional parties in handling identified notifiable transaction

All contracts being classified as potential notifiable transactions must be approved by the CFO. The CFO is required to notify the Company Secretary and seek advice from compliance advisor or legal advisor to assess and confirm whether the transaction falls into one of the classifications as set out in Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules. The assessment result obtained from the Company Secretary, compliance advisor or legal advisor will be maintained by CFO.

After confirming with the Company Secretary, compliance advisor and/or legal advisor, all confirmed notifiable transactions must be approved by the Board.

(4) Keeping relevant documentation for all notifiable transactions by CFO

The CFO is responsible for maintaining all documentation about identification and further handling of the notifiable transactions, including but not limited to i) records of communications with all professional parties; and ii) approval records of all the relevant contracts.

(5) Regular review on master contract register by CFO

The CFO reviews the master contract register on weekly basis to ensure that he/she has been designated as the approver of all potential notifiable transactions taking reference to the minimum contract amount.

(6) Further enhancing the treasury management policies

Upon offering any type of financial assistance and arrangement of deposit pledging, the finance department is required to escalate to the CFO immediately if the contract sum exceeds the minimum contract amount. The CFO will be required to follow the enhanced policies and procedures as described above to assess if the proposed contract is a potential notifiable transaction.

(7) Regular checking on the enhanced internal control measures

Ensuring the enhanced internal control system is strictly adhered to, the Company will either appoint an independent internal control consultant or arrange an internal audit team to perform an annual internal control review on the system. The review result will be addressed to the audit committee.

The Company has engaged Avista PRO-WIS Risk Advisory Limited as the independent internal control consultant to conduct an independent internal control review on the Company’s internal control system and to provide a report on the non-compliance incident which included the follow-up review for the proposed remedial measures. As of the Latest Practicable Date, Avista PRO-WIS Risk Advisory Limited is conducting the internal control review.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

(8) Arranging regular training for Chapter 14 of Listing Rules

The Company will provide training organised by experts in listing rules such as the compliance advisor or legal advisor to the Finance team, senior management of each department, Board and Company secretary on a regular basis to strengthen their understanding of the relevant listing rules and the enhanced internal control measures in relation to notifiable transactions.

The compliance advisor and the legal advisor of the Company provided an updated training on Chapter 14 of Listing Rule to the Board, finance team and senior management on 18 July 2022.

WRITTEN SHAREHOLDERS’ APPROVAL

Pursuant to Rule 14.44 of the Listing Rules, in lieu of a resolution to be passed at a general meeting of the Company, The Company has obtained the written approval and rectification from a closely allied group of Shareholders, comprising Mr. Hu Yiping who is the Director, Ms. Wei Peifen who is the spouse of Mr. Hu Yiping, and Shengfu International Limited which is owned as to approximately 92% by Mr. Hu Yiping and 8% by Ms. Wei Peifen, who are together beneficially interested in an aggregate of approximately 529,000,000 shares of the Company, representing approximately 53.48% of the total number of issued shares of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date, to approve the Guarantee Agreement and the Pledge Contracts. To the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief, after having made all reasonable enquiries, none of the Shareholders has any material interest in the Guarantee and the Pledge and therefore no Shareholder would be required to abstain from voting if the Company were to convene an extraordinary general meeting for the approval of the Guarantee and the Pledge.

If the Company were to convene an extraordinary general meeting for the approval of the Guarantee and the Pledge and voting were required, the Directors would have recommended the Shareholders to vote in favour of such resolutions based on the reasons set out in this letter as the Directors, including the independent non-executive Directors, are of the view that the entering into of the Guarantee Agreement and the Pledge Agreement is fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Shareholders as a whole. As such, although the Company deeply regrets its failure to comply with the Listing Rules, the delay in the publication of the announcement, the failure to seek advice from its compliance adviser before entering into the Guarantee Agreement and the Pledge Contracts, as well as the rectification by the Shareholders by way of written approval, the Guarantee and the Pledge do not in view of the Board constitute a material detrimental impact to its Shareholders.
