THE LISTING APPLICATION

We have made an application to the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange for the granting of the listing of, and permission to deal in, the H Shares to be issued pursuant to the Global Offering (including any additional H Shares which may be issued pursuant to the exercise of the Overallotment Option) and the H Shares to be converted from the Unlisted Shares.

STRUCTURE OF THE GLOBAL OFFERING

The Global Offering comprises:

  • the Hong Kong Public Offering of initially 436,580 H Shares (subject to reallocation), representing approximately 10% of the H Shares initially available under the Global Offering; and

  • the International Offering of initially 3,929,080 H Shares (subject to reallocation and the Over-allotment Option), representing approximately 90% of the H Shares initially available under the Global Offering.

The allocation of the H 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, the Sole Overall Coordinator may 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 Chapter 4.14 of the Guide for New Listing Applicants issued by the Stock Exchange, in the event that (i) the International Offer Shares are undersubscribed and the Hong Kong Offer Shares are fully subscribed or oversubscribed irrespective of the number of times; or (ii) the International Offer Shares are fully subscribed or oversubscribed and the Hong Kong Offer Shares are fully subscribed or oversubscribed as to less than 15 times of the number of Hong Kong Offer Shares initially available under the Hong Kong Public Offering, up to 436,540 Offer Shares may be reallocated to the Hong Kong Public Offering from the International Offering, so that the total number of the Offer Shares available under the Hong Kong Public Offering will be increased to no more than 873,120 Offer Shares, representing approximately 20% of the total number of Offer Shares initially available under the Global Offering (before any exercise of the Over-allotment Option).

In connection with the Global Offering, our Company is expected to grant the Over-allotment Option to the International Underwriters, exercisable by the Sole Overall Coordinator (on behalf of the International Underwriters). Pursuant to the Over-allotment Option, the International Underwriters will have the right, exercisable by the Overall Coordinator (on behalf of the International Underwriters) at any time from the date of the International Underwriting Agreement until 30 days after the last day for lodging applications under the Hong Kong Public Offering, to require our Company to issue and allot up to an aggregate of 654,840 H Shares (representing not more than 15.0% of the Offer Shares initially available under the Global Offering), at the Offer Price, to cover over-allocations (if any) in the International Offering. In the event the Over-allotment Option is exercised, we will make an announcement which will be posted on the website of the Stock Exchange ( www.hkexnews.hk ) and on our website ( www.voicecomm.cn ), respectively.
