At the expiry of the subscription period, the Company had received valid

subscriptions for a total of 150,230,856 Offer Shares from other shareholders

allocation criteria set out in the prospectus for the Rights Issue dated 18

March 2026. The board of directors of the Company has allocated a total of

4,078,000,000 Offer Shares.

As previously announced, the Underwriter is entitled to an underwriting fee of

7% of its underwriting commitment (excluding the Underwriter's own pro rata

participation in the Rights Issue based on allocated subscription rights),

the Rights Issue (the "Underwriting Commission Shares"). Based on the final

results of the Rights Issue, a total of 113,000,457 Underwriting Commission

Shares will be issued to the Underwriter. Notifications of the allocated Offer

Shares and the corresponding subscription amount to be paid by each
