Unless otherwise defined in this announcement, capitalized terms used herein shall have the same meanings as those defined in the prospectus dated October 28, 2020 (the “ Prospectus ”) issued by RemeGen Co., Ltd. (榮昌生物製藥 (煙台)股份有限公司) (the “ Company* ”).
Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited, The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “ Stock Exchange ”) and Hong Kong Securities Clearing Company Limited (“ HKSCC ”) take no responsibility for the contents of this announcement, make no representation as to its accuracy or completeness and expressly disclaim any liability whatsoever for any loss howsoever arising from or in reliance upon the whole or any part of the contents of this announcement.
This announcement is not for release, publication, distribution, directly or indirectly, in or into the United States (including its territories and possessions, any state of the United States and the District of Columbia). This announcement does not constitute or form a part of any offer or solicitation to purchase or subscribe for securities in Hong Kong, the United States or elsewhere. The Offer Shares have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933 as amended from time to time (the “ U.S. Securities Act ”). The Offer Shares may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and in compliance with any applicable state securities laws, or outside the United States unless in compliance with Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act. There will be no public offer of securities in the United States. The Offer Shares may be offered, sold or delivered (i) solely to qualified institutional buyers as defined in Rule 144A under the U.S. Securities Act pursuant to an exemption from registration under the U.S. Securities Act and (ii) outside of the United States in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act.
This announcement is for information purposes only and does not constitute an invitation or offer to acquire, purchase or subscribe for securities. This announcement is not a prospectus. Potential investors should read the Prospectus for detailed information about the Global Offering described below before deciding whether or not to invest in the H Shares thereby being offered. The Company has not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
In connection with the Global Offering, Morgan Stanley Asia Limited as stabilizing manager (the “ Stabilizing Manager ”), its affiliates or any person acting for it, on behalf of the Underwriters, may over-allocate and effect transactions with a view to stabilizing or supporting the market price of the H Shares at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail for a limited period after Listing Date. However, there is no obligation on the Stabilizing Manager, its affiliates or any person acting for it, to conduct any such stabilizing action, which, if commenced, will be done at the sole and absolute discretion of the Stabilizing Manager, its affiliates or any person acting for it, and may be discontinued at any time. Any such stabilizing activity is required to be brought to an end on the 30th day after the last day for the lodging of applications under the Hong Kong Public Offering. Such stabilization action, if taken, may be effected in all jurisdictions where it is permissible to do so, in each case in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulatory requirements, including the Securities and Futures (Price Stabilizing) Rules (Chapter 571W of the Laws of Hong Kong), as amended, made under the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Chapter 571 of the Laws of Hong Kong).
Potential investors should be aware that stabilizing action cannot be taken to support the price of the H Shares for longer than the stabilization period which begins on the Listing Date and is expected to expire on 30th day after the last day for lodging applications under the Hong Kong Public Offering. After this date, no further stabilizing action may be taken, and demand for the H Shares, and therefore the price of the H Shares, could fall.
Potential investors of the Offer Shares should note that the Joint Global Coordinators (for themselves and on behalf of the Hong Kong Underwriters) shall be entitled to terminate their obligations under the Hong Kong Underwriting Agreement with immediate effect upon the occurrence of any of the events set out in the paragraph headed “Underwriting – Hong Kong Underwriting Arrangements – Hong Kong Public Offering – Grounds for Termination” in the Prospectus at any time prior to 8:00 a.m. on the Listing Date (which is currently expected to be on Monday, November 9, 2020).

THE LISTING APPLICATION
The Company has applied to the Stock Exchange for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the H Shares to be issued pursuant to the Global Offering (including any H Shares to be issued pursuant to the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option) and the H Shares to be converted from the Unlisted Foreign Shares upon completion of the Global Offering.
STRUCTURE OF THE GLOBAL OFFERING
The Global Offering comprises:
-
the Hong Kong Public Offering of initially 7,654,000 H Shares (subject to adjustment) representing approximately 10.0% of the total number of Offer Shares initially available under the Global Offering, and
-
the International Offering of initially 68,883,000 H Shares (subject to adjustment and the Over-allotment Option) representing approximately 90.0% of the total number of Offer Shares initially available under the Global Offering.
The allocation of the Offer Shares between the Hong Kong Public Offering and the International Offering will be subject to reallocation as described in the section headed “Structure of the Global Offering” in the Prospectus.
In particular, subject to the requirements under Practice Note 18 of the Listing Rules and Guidance Letter HKEX-GL91-18, the Joint Global Coordinators may, at their sole discretion, reallocate Offer Shares from the International Offering to the Hong Kong Public Offering to satisfy valid applications under the Hong Kong Public Offering. In accordance with Guidance Letter HKEX-GL91-18 issued by the Stock Exchange, if such reallocation is done other than pursuant to Practice Note 18 of the Listing Rules, the maximum total number of Offer Shares that may be allocated to the Hong Kong Public Offering following such reallocation shall not exceed 7,654,000 H Shares, representing approximately 10% of the Offer Shares initially available under the Global Offering, increasing the total number of Offer Shares available under the Hong Kong Public Offering to 15,308,000 H Shares, representing approximately 20% of the Offer Shares and the final Offer Price shall be fixed at the bottom end of the indicative Offer Price range (i.e. HK$50.30 per Offer Share) stated in the Prospectus.
In connection with the Global Offering and pursuant to International Underwriting Agreement, the Company is expected to grant to the International Underwriters, exercisable by the Joint Global Coordinators (on behalf of the International Underwriters), the Over-allotment Option, exercisable within 30 days from the last day for lodging applications under the Hong Kong Public Offering (the last day for exercise of the Over-allotment Option being the 30th day after last day for lodging applications under the Hong Kong Public Offering) to require the Company to issue and allot up to 11,480,500 additional Offer Shares, representing approximately 15% of the Offer Shares initially available under the Global Offering, at the Offer Price, to cover over-allocations in the International Offering, if any. In the event the Over-allotment Option is exercised, the Company will make an announcement which will be posted on the website of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange ( www.hkexnews.hk ) and on our website ( www.remegen.com ), respectively.
