THE DISPOSAL

References are made to the announcements of the Company dated 7 July 2017 and 4 August 2017, respectively, in relation to the potential disposal of 100% equity interest in Shanghai Huali, an indirectly wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, through a public tender process conducted on the SUAEEx.

Pursuant to the Equity Transfer Agreement, Barwin Development agreed to transfer 100% equity interest in Shanghai Huali to Huiyang Industry at a consideration of RMB164,673,100.

Upon completion of the Disposal, Shanghai Huali will cease to be a subsidiary of the Company, and thus its financial statements will not be consolidated into the Group.

LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

As one or more of the applicable percentage ratios in respect of the transaction as contemplated under the Equity Transfer Agreement exceed(s) 5% but less than 25%, the transaction contemplated under the Equity Transfer Agreement constitutes a discloseable transaction of the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.
