(C) Scientificity and reasonableness of the appraisal indicators
The appraisal for the Subsidiary Share Incentive Scheme is categorised into two levels, i.e. performance appraisal at company level and performance appraisal at individual level.
The performance indicator at company level is the growth of net profit attributable to shareholders of Seazen Holdings after deducting non-recurring gains/losses, which manifests improved profitability, future development and the strategy concentrating on primary businesses of Seazen Holdings, while establishing a better image in the capital market. The determination of the specific target values takes into account the macroeconomic environment, the development of the industry, the market competition, Seazen Holdings’ future development planning and other relevant factors. After comprehensively considering the possibility of their realisation and the incentive effect on Seazen Holdings’ employees, such indicators are reasonable and scientific.
In addition to the performance appraisal at company level, Seazen Holdings has established a strict performance appraisal system for individuals, which evaluates the performance of the Participants in an accurate and all-round manner. Seazen Holdings will determine whether the Participants meet the exercise or unlocking conditions based on their performance appraisal results for the previous year.
Given the above, the appraisal system for the Subsidiary Share Incentive Scheme of Seazen Holdings is all-round, comprehensive and operable, and the appraisal indicators are scientific and reasonable, which are binding on the Participants and can serve the appraisal goal of the Subsidiary Share Incentive Scheme.

The Ministry of Finance issued the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 11 – Share-based Payment and the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments on 15 February 2006, which were implemented within the scope of listed companies since 1 January 2007. According to relevant requirements regarding the determination of fair value in the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments, an appropriate valuation model shall be selected to calculate the fair value of the Share Options. Seazen Holdings selected the Black-Scholes model to calculate the fair value of the Share Options and calculated 14,515,000 Share Options under the initial grant on 27 September 2019.
-
(i) Target share price: RMB27.39 per share
-
(ii) Validity period: 2.40 years
-
(iii) Historical volatility: 38.41%
-
(iv) Risk-free interest rate: 2.76%
-
(v) Dividend yield: 0%
2. Amortisation method of Share Option expenses
In accordance with the relevant requirements of the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 11 – Share-based Payments, Seazen Holdings will, on each balance sheet date during the vesting period, revise the estimated number of Share Options that are exercisable based on the latest available subsequent information such as the change in the number of exercisable persons and the completion status of performance indicators, and include the services received in the current period into relevant costs or expenses and capital reserve based on the fair value of the Share Options on the Grant Date.
Assuming the initial grant of Share Options is made by Seazen Holdings in October 2019, the amortisation of the cost of Share Options from 2019 to 2022 is as follows:
| Number of | Total expenses | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Share Options | to be amortised | 2019 | 2020 | 2021 | 2022 |
| (0’000 shares) | (RMB0’000) | (RMB0’000) | (RMB0’000) | (RMB0’000) | (RMB0’000) |
| 1,451.50 | 10,320.17 | 1,118.02 | 6,020.10 | 2,322.04 | 860.01 |

SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL TERMS OF THE SUBSIDIARY SHARE INCENTIVE SCHEME
APPENDIX
Based on the preliminary estimation of the information currently available to Seazen Holdings, without taking into account the stimulation effects of the Subsidiary Share Incentive Scheme on the results of Seazen Holdings, the amortisation of share option expenses will have an insignificant impact on the net profit of each year during the validity period. If the positive impact of the Subsidiary Share Incentive Scheme on the development of Seazen Holdings are taken into consideration, such as motivating the management team, increasing operation efficiency, and reducing agent costs, the improvement in Seazen Holdings’ results brought by the Subsidiary Share Incentive Scheme shall far exceed the increase in the expenses incurred therefrom.
(B) Accounting treatment of the Restricted Shares
In accordance with the requirements of the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 11 – Share-based Payments, Seazen Holdings will, on each balance sheet date during the lock-up period, revise the number of Restricted Shares that are expected to be unlocked based on the latest available subsequent information such as the change in the number of persons subject to unlocking and the completion of performance indicators, and include the services received during the current period in relevant costs or expenses and capital reserve based on the fair value of the Restricted Shares on the Grant Date.
The unit cost of the Restricted Shares is represented by the fair value of the Restricted Shares less the grant price. For Participants who are not directors or senior management, the fair value of the Restricted Shares is represented by the closing price on the Grant Date. For directors and senior management, as the number of shares transferred by them each year during their term of office shall not exceed 25% of the total number of shares of Seazen Holdings held by them, they are subject to the restriction that the Restricted Shares shall be unlocked but shall not be transferred, which corresponds to certain restricted costs. Therefore, the fair value of Restricted Shares is represented by the closing price on the Grant Date less the unit cost of Restricted Shares transferred by directors and the senior management. Among which, the cost of transfer restriction for directors and senior management is calculated by the Black-Scholes model, the specific methods are as follows:
The restriction on the amount of transfer after unlocking of the equity instruments granted by the directors and senior management has brought corresponding transfer restriction costs to the Participants, i.e. the directors and senior management shall ensure that the costs required to be paid for selling the Restricted Shares shall not be lower than the closing price on the Grant Date in the future. Therefore, each of the directors and senior management shall purchase a put option on the Grant Date, and the number of exercise shall be the same as the amount of incentive granted to the directors and senior management, and the exercise period of which shall be the same as the weighted average lock-up period of the directors and senior management calculated based on the transfer restriction. As the maximum number of shares to be transferred by the directors and senior management each year is 25% of the shares held by them, a weighted average lock-up period of 4 years can be calculated. The purchase put option price of RMB6.42 was calculated using the Black-Scholes model as the unit transfer restriction cost for directors and senior management.

SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL TERMS OF THE SUBSIDIARY SHARE INCENTIVE SCHEME
APPENDIX
To summarise the above, the total fair value of the equity instruments granted by Seazen Holdings to the Participants based on the forecast on 27 September 2019 is RMB128,950,800, and such total fair value as the incentive cost of the Subsidiary Option Scheme of Seazen Holdings will be recognised in installments according to the unlocking proportion during the implementation of the Subsidiary Option Scheme.
Assuming the initial grant of Restricted Shares is made by Seazen Holdings in October 2019, the amortisation of the cost of Restricted Shares from 2019 to 2022 is as follows:
| Number of | Total expense to | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Restricted Shares | be amortised | 2019 | 2020 | 2021 | 2022 |
| (0’000 shares) | (RMB0’000) | (RMB0’000) | (RMB0’000) | (RMB0’000) | (RMB0’000) |
| 1,054.70 | 12,895.08 | 1,396.97 | 7,522.13 | 2,901.39 | 1,074.59 |
The following table sets forth the estimated total amortisation expense of Share Options and Restricted Shares:
| Total expenses to be amortised | 2019 | 2020 | 2021 | 2022 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| (RMB0’000) | (RMB0’000) | (RMB0’000) | (RMB0’000) | (RMB0’000) |
| 23,215.24 | 2,514.98 | 13,542.23 | 5,223.43 | 1,934.60 |
Based on the preliminary estimation of the information currently available to Seazen Holdings, without taking into account the stimulation effects of the Subsidiary Share Incentive Scheme on the results of Seazen Holdings, the amortisation of the expenses of the Restricted Shares will have an insignificant impact on the net profit of each year during the validity period. If the positive effects of the Subsidiary Restricted Incentive Scheme on the development of Seazen Holdings are taken into account, such as motivating the management team, improving operation efficiency and reducing agent costs, the improvement in Seazen Holdings’ results brought by the Subsidiary Share Incentive Scheme shall far exceed the increase in the expenses incurred therefrom.
