CLARIFICATION ANNOUNCEMENT

Reference is made to the joint announcement dated 10 October 2018 (the “ Joint Announcement ”) jointly issued by Huobi Global Limited (the “ Offeror ”) and Pantronics Holding Limited (the “ Company ”) in relation to, among other things, the results of the mandatory unconditional cash offers being made by Kingston Securities Limited for and on behalf of the Offeror to acquire all the issued shares in the Company (other than those already owned or agreed to be acquired by the Offeror and parties acting in concert with it) and for the cancellation of all the outstanding share options of the Company. Capitalised terms used herein shall have the same meanings as defined in the Joint Announcement unless otherwise stated.

The Company would like to clarify and correct the Chinese translation of the Joint Announcement that the subtotal of the number of Shares held by the Offeror and parties acting in concert with it (including Trinity Gate) immediately after the close of the Offers (assuming that the transfer to the Offeror of those Offer Shares acquired by the Offeror under the Share Offer has been completed) and as at the date of the Joint Announcement under the paragraph headed “Shareholding structure” on page 5 of the Joint Announcement should be “219,750,668” instead of “219,746,668”.
