LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS
As the highest applicable percentage ratio calculated pursuant to Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules in respect of the Disposal exceeds 75%, the Disposal, if materialised, will constitute a very substantial disposal of the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.
Pacific Climax is a controlling shareholder of the Company, which, as at the date of this announcement, held approximately 70.94% of the total issued share capital of the Company, and is indirectly wholly owned by OCT Ltd.. As OCT Chengdu Investment is directly wholly owned by OCT Ltd., OCT Chengdu Investment is therefore a connected person of the Company pursuant to Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. Accordingly, the Disposal also constitutes a connected transaction of the Company and is subject to the relevant reporting, announcement, circular and Independent Shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.
Mr. Zhang Dafan, the chairman of the Board, who also acts as the executive director of OCT Chengdu Investment, is considered to have a material interest in the Disposal. Mr. Zhang Dafan has abstained from voting on the resolutions in relation to the Transfer Agreements proposed to the Board. Save as disclosed above, none of the Directors attended the Board meeting has a material interest in the Disposal.
GENERAL
An Independent Board Committee has been formed to advise and provide recommendations to the Independent Shareholders in respect of the Disposal. Opus Capital has been appointed as the Independent Financial Adviser to advise the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders on the Disposal.
At the EGM, resolutions will be proposed by the Company to seek the Independent Shareholders’ approval on the Transfer Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereunder. Pacific Climax and its associates will abstain from voting for the resolutions regarding the Transfer Agreements at the EGM. The proposed resolutions will be passed by way of ordinary resolutions and voted on by way of poll in accordance with the requirement of the Listing Rules.
A circular containing, among others, further details about the Disposal, the advice of the Independent Financial Adviser to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders, the recommendations of the Independent Board Committee, other information as required under the Listing Rules and a notice convening the EGM, is expected to be despatched to the Shareholders on or before 24 September 2020.

Shareholders and potential investors of the Company should note that Completion is subject to the fulfilment of the conditions precedent of the Transfer Agreements as disclosed in this announcement (including the relevant shareholders’ approvals and regulatory approvals). Accordingly, the Disposal may or may not proceed.

Upon Completion, the Group will not hold any interest in the Target Group and the Target Group will cease to be the subsidiaries of the Company, and the financial results of the Target Group will no longer be consolidated into the accounts of the Group.
- 8 -
It is expected that the Group will realise gain on the Disposal of approximately RMB233,348,181, which is calculated based on (i) the Equity Interest Consideration; (ii) the Debt Interest Consideration; (iii) the net asset of the Target Company as at 30 June 2020; and (iv) the estimated expenses in connection with the Disposal.
Shareholders should note that the financial effects are shown for reference only and the actual amount of gain or loss as a result of the Disposal will be assessed based on the financial position of the Target Company as at Completion, which will be audited, and eventually be recognised in the consolidated financial statements of the Company upon Completion.
Upon Completion, the net proceeds of the Disposal will be approximately RMB1,073,397,261 (after deducting the relevant tax expenses, and the relevant professional fees and does not include the Debt Interest Consideration). The Board intends to apply the net proceeds from the Disposal for general working capital and future investment. The Group has all along been actively seeking investment opportunities in areas such as cultural tourism, technology and new urbanisation with a view to obtaining high-quality resources and projects with growing potential. If no suitable investment opportunities can be identified, the portion of the net proceeds originally intended for future investment will be used to repay the shareholder loans of the Group.
REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE DISPOSAL
The Chengdu OCT Project has currently entered into the last stage of sales, and there are only a few properties and car parking spaces left for sale. Due to the impact of the real estate regulatory policies, the destocking of remaining properties slowed down. The Disposal therefore meets the needs of strategies and operation of the Company, enabling the Group to quickly revitalise its remnant assets, and accelerate the cash flow. The proceeds obtained from the Disposal will be applied in potential high quality projects, so as to optimise resource allocation.
The Directors (excluding the independent non-executive Directors, whose opinion will be set out in the letter from the Independent Board Committee to be included in the circular) are of the opinion that the terms of the Disposal and the transactions contemplated thereunder are on normal commercial terms or better, and are fair and reasonable, and the Disposal is in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS
As the highest applicable percentage ratio calculated pursuant to Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules in respect of the Disposal exceeds 75%, the Disposal, if materialised, will constitute a very substantial disposal of the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.
Pacific Climax is a controlling shareholder of the Company, which, as at the date of this announcement, held approximately 70.94% of the total issued share capital of the Company, and is indirectly wholly owned by OCT Ltd.. As OCT Chengdu Investment is directly wholly owned by OCT Ltd., OCT Chengdu Investment is therefore a connected person of the Company pursuant to
- 9 -
Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. Accordingly, the Disposal also constitutes a connected transaction of the Company and is subject to the relevant reporting, announcement, circular and Independent Shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.
Mr. Zhang Dafan, the chairman of the Board, who also acts as the executive director of OCT Chengdu Investment, is considered to have a material interest in the Disposal. Mr. Zhang Dafan has abstained from voting on the resolutions in relation to the Transfer Agreements proposed to the Board. Save as disclosed above, none of the Directors attended the Board meeting has a material interest in the Disposal.
GENERAL
An Independent Board Committee has been formed to advise and provide recommendations to the Independent Shareholders in respect of the Disposal. Opus Capital has been appointed as the Independent Financial Adviser to advise the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders on the Disposal.
At the EGM, resolutions will be proposed by the Company to seek the Independent Shareholders’ approval on the Transfer Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereunder. Pacific Climax and its associates will abstain from voting for the resolutions regarding the Transfer Agreements at the EGM. The proposed resolutions will be passed by way of ordinary resolutions and voted on by way of poll in accordance with the requirement of the Listing Rules.
A circular containing, among others, further details about the Disposal, the advice of the Independent Financial Adviser to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders, the recommendations of the Independent Board Committee, other information as required under the Listing Rules and a notice convening the EGM, is expected to be despatched to the Shareholders on or before 24 September 2020.
