III. OTHER INFORMATION IN RELATION TO THE PROPOSED A SHARE OFFERING

1. Reasons for and benefits of the Proposed A Share Offering

The Board considers that the A Share Offering on the Sci-Tech Board will enable the Company to access the PRC capital market by way of equity financing, improve its capital structure, and accelerate the business development of the Group while strengthening its competitiveness. Furthermore, the Directors considered that the A Share Offering is beneficial to, and is in the best interests of, the Company and its Shareholders as a whole for the following reasons:

(a) Branding and benefits as a dual listed company

The A Share Offering will enable the Company to obtain listing status at stock markets in the PRC mainland and Hong Kong, thereby further enriching its capital base and establishing both domestic and international financing platforms.

Since its establishment, the Sci-Tech Board has attracted a number of companies with extraordinary technological capabilities. A listing on the Sci-Tech Board would be beneficial to the Company by further enhancing its brand image and influence in the domestic market, and promoting the overall value and interests of the Company and its Shareholders.

– 35 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

As a dual listed company, the Company will be required to comply with the listing rules of both the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and the Shanghai Stock Exchange, which shall further optimize the Company’s corporate governance structure and provide a higher level of corporate transparency to Shareholders and potential investors, which is conducive to safeguarding the interests of the Shareholders as a whole.

(b) Further funding needs to be met by proceeds from the A Share Offering

While the proceeds raised from the Global Offering serve to provide strong support for the R&D and commercialization of the core products and other key products of the Company, the proceeds from the A Share Offering will enable the Company to meet the anticipated capacity requirements for commercialized products, further advance our R&D, clinical trials and registration of new generation of products, and continue to strengthen the sales and management capabilities of the Group.

While the proceeds from the Global Offering have been allocated to be utilized for production line upgrades, personnel recruitment and machine acquisitions at existing sites as disclosed in the Prospectus, further funding is required for new plant construction at newly acquired land sites to meet the anticipated capacity requirements for the commercialized products of the Company.

Although proceeds from the Global Offering have been allocated to be utilized on the expenses for the clinical trials and registration for marketing of the Patch Insulin Pump System Equil, the Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (CGMS), the second-generation patch insulin pump system and other products underway and planned, it is anticipated that further funding may be required to support the R&D of a new generation of products and related expenditures during the clinical trials and registration process of the products.

Furthermore, as the Company is gradually evolving to becoming an enterprise with more commercialized products, the Company foresees the need to undertake construction for its regional marketing centers to further enhance the local accessibility and popularity of the main products of the Group. Meanwhile, the Company will strengthen the construction of its information management system to optimize business processes management and enhance the efficiency of its operation and management, so as to further establish and strengthen the Company’s sales and management capabilities.

As the Company maintains its rapid growth momentum and continues to move towards the commercialization stage, the A Share Offering can provide the Company with additional capital, in addition to the proceeds raised from the Global Offering, to enable the Company to undertake the necessary expansion of production capacity and promote the further R&D and commercialization of its pipeline products.

2. Effects of the Proposed A Share Offering on the Shareholding Structure of the Company

Upon completion of the A Share Offering, all the then-existing Domestic Shares and Unlisted Foreign Shares (excluding those to be converted and listed pursuant to the Full Circulation Program) shall be converted into A Shares and become listed on the Sci-Tech Board. Such converted A Shares shall be deposited in CSDC and are subject to lock-up periods as required under relevant PRC laws and regulations.

As disclosed in the Full Circulation Announcements respectively dated August 3, 2022 and September 1, 2022, the Company has received the official approval from the CSRC and the Hong Kong Stock Exchange for the conversion of a total of 104,580,329 Domestic Unlisted Shares into H Shares and their listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Conversion and Listing remained subject to completion of all other required procedures. Nevertheless, the Company anticipates that the Conversion and Listing shall be completed prior to the completion of the A Share Offering. In this regard, the Company will make further announcement(s) to keep its Shareholders informed as to any further development and/or progress on the Conversion and Listing in accordance with the requirements under the Hong Kong Listing Rules and other applicable rules and regulations.

For reference and illustration purposes only, assuming that (i) there are no changes to the total issued share capital of the Company prior to the completion of the A Share Offering; (ii) a maximum of 93,460,000 new A Shares are issued under the A Share Offering (which represents approximately 21.95% of the total issued share capital of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date and approximately 18.00% of the total issued share capital of the Company as enlarged by the issue of the A Shares under the A Share Offering), the shareholding structure of the Company (a) as at the Latest Practicable Date; (b) immediately before the completion of the A Share Offering and following the completion of the Conversion and Listing pursuant to the Full Circulation Program; and (c) immediately after the completion of the A Share Offering has been set forth as follows:

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

At the time of the listing of the H Shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange has granted the Company a waiver from strict compliance with the requirements of Rule 8.08(1)(a) of the Hong Kong Listing Rules, pursuant to which the Company is required to maintain a minimum public float (as defined under the Hong Kong Listing Rules) at the higher of: (1) 15% of the total issued share capital of the Company; or (2) such percentage of H Shares to be held by the public immediately after the completion of the Global Offering and the exercise of the over-allotment option thereof (if any). Details of the waiver in relation to public float is set out in ‘‘Waiver in respect of the Public Float Requirement’’ in the Prospectus.

Following the Global Offering (including full exercise of the over-allotment option), to the best of knowledge of the Company having made all reasonable enquiries, as of the Latest Practicable Date, the Company maintained a minimum public float of H Shares of approximately 15.4%.

Assuming that a maximum of 93,460,000 A Shares shall be issued for the A Share Offering, it is expected that a total of 379,508,579 Shares, representing 73.09% of the total issued share capital of the Company (as enlarged by the issue of the A Shares under the A Share Offering) will be held by the public (including H Shares and A Shares held by the public but excluding any H Shares and A Shares held by the substantial shareholders, Directors, Supervisors, chief executive of the Company and their respective close associate(s)) following the completion of the A Share Offering. As such, the Company would still be able to meet the minimum requirement in respect of the public float percentage under the Hong Kong Listing Rules as imposed by the Hong Kong Stock Exchange at the time of the Global Offering.

The Company endeavors to closely monitor its public float percentage (including H Shares and A Shares held by the public) to maintain the percentage of listed securities held by the public above the minimum level prescribed by Rule 8.08 of the Hong Kong Listing Rules at all times, including during the stabilization period for the newly issued A shares. The Company will also ensure its compliance with relevant requirements on public float as stipulated under the Hong Kong Listing Rules and will promptly notify the Hong Kong Stock Exchange of any changes in the Company’s public float.

APPENDIX I

PLAN FOR STABILIZING A SHARE PRICE WITHIN THREE YEARS AFTER INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING OF A SHARES AND LISTING ON THE SCI-TECH BOARD

To maintain the stability of the A Share price after the listing of A Shares of MicroTech Medical (Hangzhou) Co., Ltd. (the ‘‘Issuer’’ or ‘‘Company’’), the Issuer formulates the Plan of MicroTech Medical (Hangzhou) Co., Ltd. for Stabilizing A Share Price within Three Years after the Initial Public Offering of A Shares and Listing on the Sci-Tech Board, details of which are as follows:

I. CONDITIONS FOR ACTIVATING AND CEASING SHARE PRICE STABILIZATION MEASURES

(I) Condition for activating share price stabilization measures

If, within three years from the listing date of A Shares and save for circumstances caused by force majeure, the closing price of A Shares (in case of the ex-right and exdividend events due to distribution of cash dividend, issue of bonus shares, conversion of capital reserve into share capital and additional new share offering, recovery of right is adopted according to relevant provisions of the stock exchange, the same below) remains below the unaudited net asset value per share as at the end of the prior accounting year of the Company (net asset value per share = total of equity attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company in the consolidated financial statements ÷ total shares of the Company at the end of the year, the same below) for 20 consecutive trading days (the ‘‘Activation Condition’’), the Company and relevant parties shall activate the following share price stabilization measures according to the plan and fulfill the information disclosure obligation for the purposes of safeguarding the rights and interests of Shareholders, enhancing the confidence of investors and maintaining the stability of the share price.

(II) Conditions for ceasing share price stabilization measures

After the Activation Condition for share price stabilization measures is satisfied, if any of the following events occur, the share price stabilization measures which have been formulated or announced will be ceased, with the share price stabilization measures implemented being regarded as completed and unnecessary to be further implemented: (1) during or prior to the implementation of specific share price stabilization measures under this undertaking, the closing price of A Shares remains above the audited net asset value per share for the latest accounting period for 3 consecutive trading days; (2) further implementation of share price stabilization measures will result in a shareholding structure that does not meet the listing conditions, or will violate the then applicable prohibitive provisions, or will trigger the general offer obligation upon increasing stakes in the Company.

I – 1

APPENDIX I

PLAN FOR STABILIZING A SHARE PRICE WITHIN THREE YEARS AFTER INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING OF A SHARES AND LISTING ON THE SCI-TECH BOARD

in
respect
of
the
election
of
Directors
or
supervisors may be passed by way of cumulative voting at
the shareholders’ general meeting pursuant to the Articles of
Association or resolution of the shareholders’ general meeting.
Cumulative
voting
mentioned
in
the
preceding
paragraph
means that when Directors or supervisors are being elected at
a shareholders’ general meeting, each share has as the same
voting rights as the candidates for Directors or supervisors,
and
the
shareholders’
voting
rights
may
be
used
in
a
concentrated manner.
The implementation rules of the cumulative voting system are
as follows.
(I)
the
election
of
executive
Directors,
non-executive
Directors,
independent
non-executive
Directors
and
supervisors shall be voted separately.
1. When electing executive Directors, the number of the
voting rights held by shareholders present equals to the total
number of shares held by them times the number of executive
Directors to be elected, such portion of voting rights shall
only be voted when electing executive Director candidates.
2. When electing non-executive Directors, the number of the
voting rights held by shareholders present equals to the total
number of shares held by them times the number of non-
executive Directors to be elected, such portion of voting rights
shall only be voted when electing non-executive Director
candidates.
3. When electing independent non-executive Directors, the
number of the voting rights held by shareholders present
equals to the total number of shares held by them times the
number of independent non-executive Directors to be elected,
such portion of voting rights shall only be voted when
electing independent non-executive Director candidates.
4. When electing supervisors, the number of the voting rights
held by shareholders present equals to the total number of
shares held by them times the number of supervisors to be
elected, such portion of voting rights shall only be voted
when electing supervisor’s candidates.
(II) The number of votes held by each share is equal to the
number of Directors or supervisors the shareholder is entitled
to elect, and the shareholders may divide their votes equally
among each candidate for Directors or supervisors, or may
concentrate their votes on one or some of the candidate(s),
provided that the total number of votes exercised by a
shareholder shall not exceed the total number of votes he/she
is entitled to for such category of candidates.
(III) The candidates for Directors and supervisors shall finally
be determined according to the number of votes and the
requirements for Directors and supervisors in the Articles of
Association.
Article 108 Except for the cumulative voting system, all proposals shall
be voted individually at the shareholders’ general meeting. If
there are a number of proposals related to the same matter,
votes shall be cast in the order of which the proposals are
presented. Except where a shareholders’ general meeting is
suspended or no resolution can be adopted due to force
majeure or other special reasons, no proposal shall be set
aside or rejected for voting at the meeting.

NOTICE OF THE 2022 FIRST EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING

  1. To consider and approve the appointment of Dr. Cheng Hua as an independent nonexecutive director of the Company.

  2. For the avoidance of doubt, given that the proposed A Share Offering is conditional upon, among other things, necessary regulatory approvals, there is no assurance that it will proceed as planned or at all. Therefore, despite that the Shareholders will consider and, if thought fit, approve the adoption of both versions of the Articles of Association, only one version of it will have become effective at the time immediately following the EGM. The effect of the Shareholders considering, and if thought fit, approving, both versions of the Amended Articles of Association is that, before and until the A Share Offering has been successfully completed, the version of the Amended Articles of Association incorporating and consolidating all the Proposed Amendments to the Current Articles of Association will have remained effective and, vice versa.
