PROPOSED MANDATE FOR POTENTIAL VERY SUBSTANTIAL DISPOSAL INVOLVING DISPOSAL OF PARTIAL INTERESTS IN SHOUCHI ENTERPRISE THROUGH PUBLIC TENDER

THE PROPOSED DISPOSAL AND PROPOSED MANDATE

OCT Shanghai Land (an indirect non-wholly-owned subsidiary of the Group) intends to dispose of 51% equity interests in the Target Company (i.e. the Sale Interests) through Public Tender to be conducted on CBEX. Hence, the Board proposes to seek the Proposed Mandate to be granted in advance by the Shareholders at the EGM for the Directors to enter into and complete the Proposed Disposal.

Upon completion of the Proposed Disposal, OCT Shanghai Land will still hold 49% equity interests in the Target Company.

LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

If the Group proceeds with the Proposed Disposal, the highest relevant applicable percentage ratio calculated pursuant to the Listing Rules based on the Minimum Price in respect of the Proposed Disposal is more than 75%, the Proposed Disposal is therefore expected to constitute a very substantial disposal of the Company for the purpose of the Listing Rules and be subject to the reporting, announcement and shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.

– 1 –

GENERAL

A circular containing, among others, further details about the Proposed Disposal and the Proposed Mandate, 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 26 October 2022, as additional time is required for the Company to finalise certain information to be disclosed in the circular.

The terms of the Public Tender have yet to be finalised and therefore may be subject to changes. In addition, the Proposed Disposal may or may not proceed. Shareholders and potential investors of the Company are advised to exercise caution in dealing in the securities of the Company.

Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 30 September 2022.

THE PROPOSED DISPOSAL THROUGH PUBLIC TENDER

OCT Shanghai Land (an indirect non-wholly-owned subsidiary of the Group) intends to dispose of the Sale Interests through Public Tender to be conducted on CBEX.

OCT Shanghai Land is a state-controlled enterprise. Accordingly, the Proposed Disposal, as a disposal of OCT Shanghai Land’s state-owned assets or equity interests, is required by the laws and regulations of the PRC governing the disposal of state-controlled assets to undergo the process of public tender through a qualified equity exchange institution.

Major Terms of the Proposed Disposal

Subject matter

The Sale Interests, being 51% equity interests in the Target Company

Qualification of the bidders

The Proposed Disposal will be conducted through Public Tender on CBEX. The successful bidder of the Public Tender will be the Purchaser. Potential bidders shall satisfy, among others, the following qualifications:

  • i. It shall be a corporation or a non-corporate organization, that is legally established with valid continuing existence, or shall be a natural person with full civil capacity;

– 2 –

  • ii. It shall be financially sound, with ability to pay and with business credibility; and

  • iii. Other qualifications stipulated under applicable laws, rules and regulations.

A bidder will be required to undertake that it and its ultimate beneficial owners are not connected persons of the Company.

Procedure of the Public Tender

Pursuant to the relevant regulatory requirements in the PRC, a preliminary disclosure of the information relating to the Proposed Disposal has been published on CBEX’s website as set out in the Company’s announcement dated 30 September 2022.

To commence the formal process of the Public Tender, OCT Shanghai Land will submit to CBEX an application to release information on the transfer of assets. Information to be released will include (among other things) information of the Target Company (including its basic information, shareholding structure, and key financial indicators), the Tender Base Price, principal terms of the transaction, and the qualifications of the bidders. CBEX will release such information on its website (the “ Publication Notice ”) if the release requirements are met. OCT Shanghai Land intends to submit the application for the Proposed Disposal after the Shareholders having granted the Proposed Mandate at the EGM and having obtained the Supervisory Approvals.

The Publication Period, which is subject to the rules of CBEX for the extension, will initially be not less than 20 working days (commencing on the date immediately after the date of the Publication Notice). During the Publication Period, qualified bidders may indicate their intention to purchase the Sale Interests, and register themselves with CBEX as interested bidders. Interested bidders are required to pay a guarantee fee (which is expected to be within the range of 20% to 30% of the Tender Base Price) (the “ Guarantee Fee ”) to the designated account of CBEX within the period prescribed by CBEX.

Upon the close of the Publication Period, if there is more than one interested bidder, online bidding will be conducted by CBEX whereby an interested bidder may submit its bidding price multiple times. The interested bidder with the highest bidding price submitted will be the successful bidder. If there is only one interested bidder upon the close of the Publication Period, the Final Consideration will be the price submitted by the Purchaser (which shall not be lower than the Tender Base Price). CBEX will notify OCT Shanghai Land of the identity of the successful bidder (being the Purchaser). OCT Shanghai Land and the Purchaser will finalise the terms of the Proposed Disposal and enter into the Transaction Agreement within three working days after the identity of the Purchaser is confirmed.

– 3 –

In the event that no interested bidder is identified during the Publication Period, OCT Shanghai Land may apply to CBEX to revise certain terms of the listing (including without limitation, to reduce the Tender Base Price). Currently, there is no intention for the Group to reduce the Tender Base Price to a price below the Minimum Price or to materially amend the other terms of the listing. However, where the Group decides to reduce the Tender Base Price to a price below the Minimum Price or to materially amend the other terms of the listing in the event that no interested bidder is identified during the initial Publication Period, the Company will re-comply with the relevant requirements of Chapter 14 under the Listing Rules (including obtaining the Shareholders’ approval).

As of the date of this announcement, certain material information of the Transaction Agreement such as the identity of the Purchaser, the Final Consideration, delivery and closing date of the Proposed Disposal have not been finalised. The Company will make further announcement(s) on the Public Tender and the Proposed Disposal as and when appropriate.

Consideration

The Final Consideration of the Sale Interest shall be the winning bid price of the Public Tender pursuant to the procedure set out in the sub-section headed “Procedure of the Public Tender” above. OCT Shanghai Land will submit a Tender Base Price to CBEX, which will be released in the Publication Notice. OCT Shanghai Land may also apply to CBEX to adjust the Tender Base Price if no interested bidder is identified during the Publication Period.

The Tender Base Price will be determined by the Group, but will not be lower than RMB584,990,000 (the “ Minimum Price ”). In determining the Minimum Price, the Group has taken into account, among other things, (1) the unaudited net asset value of the Target Company as at 31 August 2022 of approximately RMB577 million; (2) the difference (of approximately RMB556 million) between the unaudited carrying value of the Property as of 31 August 2022 (approximately RMB1,979 million), when compared to the preliminary appraisal value of the Property as at 31 August 2022 of approximately RMB3,397 million, prepared by an independent property valuer based on market approach (with a net fair value of investment property of approximately RMB2,535 million), after taking into account fees applied in preparing the property valuation including taxes (such as output tax, sales additional tax, land appreciation tax and income tax) of around RMB0.7 billion, and sales and transaction costs of around RMB0.1 billion); (3) the shareholding percentage proposed to be disposed of; and (4) prospects of the Target Company.

As of 31 August 2022, the Target Company had total liabilities of approximately RMB1,435 million, of which include loans of approximately RMB1,400 million (which have been repaid after 31 August 2022 and replaced by a loan from a commercial bank in the PRC of approximately RMB1,400 million), together with other accounts payable and other payables arising from its ordinary course of business of approximately RMB35 million.

In light of the above and information set out in the section headed “Reasons for and benefits of the Proposed Disposal” below, the Board considers that the Final Consideration to be arrived at will be fair and reasonable.

– 4 –

The Final Consideration will be paid in cash in RMB. One-off payment of the Final Consideration (after deducting the Guarantee Fee) shall be made to the designated account of CBEX within three working days after the date of the Transaction Agreement.

Registration of the Proposed Disposal

Application to register the transfer of the Sale Interests will be applied for at the relevant administration for industry and commerce after OCT Shanghai Land having received the entire Final Consideration. Creditors’ rights and debts of the Target Company will continue to be borne by the Target Company after the completion of the Proposed Disposal.

Representation and warranties

It is expected that OCT Shanghai Land will give certain representations and warranties in relation to the Target Company in the Transaction Agreement, such as: (i) incorporation and existence of the Target Company; (ii) title and ownership of the Sale Interests; (iii) compliance with applicable laws and regulations; (iv) financial and business conditions and liabilities; and (v) title and ownership of the Property.

Conditions precedent to the Proposed Disposal

The Proposed Disposal will be subject to, among other things, the Shareholders’ approval on the Proposed Disposal and the Proposed Mandate at the EGM and the Supervisory Approvals having been obtained. As OCT Shanghai Land (as the transferor of the Proposed Disposal) is a state-controlled enterprise, the Proposed Disposal is required by the laws and regulations of the PRC governing the disposal of state-controlled assets to undergo the process of public tender through a qualified equity exchange institution. Pursuant to the relevant rules of CBEX, publication to formally commence a public tender should only be made after the transferor having completed relevant decision-making and approval procedures. Hence, it would not be practicable to formally commence the Public Tender with a term that the Proposed Disposal be conditional upon the Shareholders’ approval. The Board would like to seek the Proposed Mandate to be granted in advance by the Shareholders at the EGM for the Directors to enter into and complete the Proposed Disposal.

Articles of association of the Target Company

The Target Company is currently wholly-owned by OCT Shanghai Land. Upon completion of the Proposed Disposal, OCT Shanghai Land will still hold 49% equity interests in the Target Company. It is expected that OCT Shanghai Land and the Purchaser will enter into a joint venture agreement and/or a new articles of association with respect to their rights and obligations as shareholders of the Target Company.

– 5 –

The terms of such joint venture agreement/articles of association of the Target Company are yet to be finalised, and will be liaised and agreed upon after the identity of the Purchaser is confirmed. It is expected that (among other things) terms of the following effect will be included:

  • i. Resolutions of the shareholders of the Target Company should only be passed with the approval of all its shareholders; Resolutions of the board of directors of the Target Company should only be passed with the approval of all its directors;

  • ii. The Target Company’s operation shall be jointly managed by, and approval shall require cosigning by representatives from, both of the Target Company’s shareholders; and

  • iii. Operation of the Property shall meet the management and services standard and requirements prescribed by the Property’s branding licensor.

As of the date of this announcement, there is no commitment or plan for OCT Shanghai Land or for the Purchaser to make additional capital contribution to the Target Company immediately following the completion of the Proposed Disposal. The Group is preparing the major terms of the articles of association and/or joint venture agreement to be entered into between OCT Shanghai Land and the Purchaser regarding the Target Company. Further information will be disclosed in the circular to be despatch with respect to the Proposed Disposal in due course.

The Target Company shall be entitled to transfer, assign, pledge all or part of the ownership or interests in the apartments without prior consent of or prior notification to OCT Shanghai Land

The rental fee is set with reference to the estimated rental income on an annual basis that might be derived from sub-letting the apartments, taking into account the number of apartments currently being sub-let, their term and estimated rental therefrom, the market rate of sub-letting similar apartments in nearby area, and the prospects of the rental market. Following completion of the Proposed Disposal, the Target Company’s decision regarding the apartments will be co-determined by both of its shareholders. It is expected that OCT Shanghai Land will continue the existing sub-letting business of the apartments during the lease term. Revenue from the sub-letting of the apartments shall belong to OCT Shanghai Land.

FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF THE PROPOSED DISPOSAL

Subject to and upon completion of the Proposed Disposal, OCT Shanghai Land will hold 49% equity interest in the Target Company. The Target Company will cease to be a subsidiary of the Company and its financial results will no longer be consolidated into the Group’s consolidated financial statements. It is currently expected that the Target Company will be classified as a joint venture in the Group’s consolidated financial statements immediately upon completion of the Proposed Disposal.

On the assumption that the Proposed Disposal is completed at the Minimum Price, it is estimated that a gain of about RMB426 million will be derived, which is calculated based on (1) the Minimum Price (RMB584,990,000), (2) the Target Company’s net assets value as of 31 August 2022 of approximately RMB577 million, (3) pre-tax gain of approximately RMB279 million from reassessment of the fair value of the Group’s remaining 49% equity interests in the Target Company, (4) deducting the deferred gains of approximately RMB28 million related to the right-of-use assets retained from the two-year term of the above lease arrangement, and (5) estimated tax, transaction fee and other fees and expenses relating to the Proposed Disposal of approximately RMB116 million in aggregate.

On the assumption that the Proposed Disposal is completed at the Minimum Price and taking into account the amount of the Target Company’s cash and cash equivalent as of 31 August 2022, and the taxes and transaction fee and expenses of the Proposed Disposal, it is estimated that the net proceeds from the Proposed Disposal will amount to approximately RMB551 million. The Board intends to apply the net proceeds from the Proposed Disposal for repayment of the Group’s loans and borrowing, and/or general working capital purposes of the Group.

Shareholders and potential investors should note that the above financial effect and estimations are for reference purpose only, and do not purport to represent how the financial position of the Remaining Group will be upon completion of the Proposed Disposal. The actual financial figures and effect resulted from the Proposed Disposal will be assessed based on the Final Consideration, the financial position of the Target Company at the time of completion of the Proposed Disposal, and will be subject to audit, and eventually be recognised in the consolidated financial statements of the Company upon completion of the Proposed Disposal.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE PROPOSED DISPOSAL

The Board considers that the Proposed Disposal could allow the Group to realise relatively satisfactory investment income, to revitalize the Group’s stock assets, and to accelerate turnover of the Group’s capital. It would also improve the Group’s cashflow and provide the Group with liquidity for its working capital and for future business development. In addition, with the remaining 49% equity interests in the Target Company through OCT Shanghai Land, the Group will still enjoy a share of the future income and benefits to be brought by the Target Company and the Property.

In view of the above, the process of the Public Tender, the process of which the Final Consideration will be determined, and other terms of the Proposed Disposal, the Directors are of the view that the Proposed Disposal and its key terms are on normal commercial terms, are fair and reasonable, and the Proposed Disposal is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

– 10 –

To the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief, no Director has a material interest in, and no Director is required to abstain from voting on the Board resolutions approving, the Proposed Disposal and the transactions contemplated thereunder.

LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

If the Group proceeds with the Proposed Disposal, the highest relevant applicable percentage ratio calculated pursuant to the Listing Rules based on the Minimum Price in respect of the Proposed Disposal is more than 75%, the Proposed Disposal is therefore expected to constitute a very substantial disposal of the Company for the purpose of the Listing Rules and be subject to the reporting, announcement and shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.

GENERAL

Resolution will be proposed at the EGM to seek the Shareholders’ approval on the Proposed Disposal, and the granting of the Proposed Mandate in advance by the Shareholders for the Directors to enter into and complete the Proposed Disposal. To the best of the knowledge of the Company, at present, no Shareholder shall be considered as having a material interest and be required to abstain from voting at the EGM.

A circular containing, among others, further details about the Proposed Disposal and the Proposed Mandate, 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 26 October 2022, as additional time is required for the Company to finalise certain information, including the valuation report of the Property, and the financial information of the Target Company and the Remaining Group, to be disclosed in the circular.

The terms of the Public Tender have yet to be finalised and therefore may be subject to changes. In addition, the Proposed Disposal may or may not proceed. Shareholders and potential investors of the Company are advised to exercise caution in dealing in the securities of the Company. Further announcement(s) will be made by the Company as and when appropriate or required by the Listing Rules.
