The purpose of this circular is to provide you with, among other things, (i) details on the proposed extension of performance of the undertaking on non-competition by Shandong Heavy Industry, and (ii) details of the election of Directors. This circular also contains the notice convening the EGM.
II. PROPOSED EXTENSION OF PERFORMANCE OF THE UNDERTAKING ON NON-COMPETITION BY SHANDONG HEAVY INDUSTRY
The Company has recently received the Letter of Shandong Heavy Industry Group Co., Ltd on Extension of Performance of the Undertaking on Non-competition («關於延期履行避免同業競爭承諾的函») issued by Shandong Heavy Industry, a de facto controller of the Company, pursuant to which, Shandong Heavy Industry intends to extend the period of its performance of the undertaking for another five years, pursuant to the relevant provisions under the Guideline No. 4 on Supervision and Administration of Listed Companies – Commitments by Listed Companies and their Related Parties («上市公司監管指引第4號 – 上市公司及其相關方承諾»). The particulars of the proposed extension are set out below:
1. Background and Contents of the Original Undertaking
Pursuant to the instructions of Shandong Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government and as approved by the Shandong Provincial State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission and Jinan Municipal Government, in December 2019, Shandong Heavy Industry gained controlling rights in CNHTC through gratuitous transfer and equity entrustment. The Company and the relevant subsidiaries under CNHTC overlap in the heavy-duty complete vehicles business.
On 1 February 2021, to avoid the competition with CNHTC harming the interests of the Company and its shareholders ("Shareholders") and properly solve the overlap between certain businesses of CNHTC and the Company, Shandong Heavy Industry issued the Letter of Undertaking on Non-competition («關於避免同業競爭的承諾»), pursuant to which Shandong Heavy Industry undertakes to solve the competition between the subsidiaries of CNHTC and the Company and its subsidiaries through practical solutions within five years, with details as follows:
-
Regarding the overlap between certain businesses of the subsidiaries of CNHTC and Weichai Power and its subsidiaries, the company shall, within five years from the date of this undertaking, properly resolve such overlap by implementing decision-making procedures through methods approved by all the relevant regulatory authorities, in accordance with the actual circumstances of the enterprises and the characteristics and development status of the relevant industry. The aforementioned resolution methods include but are not limited to: (i) asset restructuring: acquiring assets, asset swaps, asset transfers or other possible restructuring methods with the consideration of cash or shares or by other means permissible by relevant laws and regulations; (ii) business adjustment: realising business differentiation through asset transactions and business division, including but not limited to differentiating on business composition, product tiers, application fields and customer pools; (iii) other feasible solutions permitted by laws, regulations
-

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
and relevant policies. In addressing the overlapping businesses, the company shall fully respect and safeguard the interests of Weichai Power's minority shareholders, and actively implement after obtaining the approval of Weichai Power's shareholders' meeting and all the relevant securities supervision and administration authorities and stock exchanges.
-
The company has not yet formulated a specific implementation plan or timeline for resolving the overlap between certain businesses of the subsidiaries of CNHTC and Weichai Power and its subsidiaries. The company will promptly fulfill its information disclosure obligations in accordance with the relevant laws and regulations upon the formulation of a feasible and concrete plan.
-
Other than the aforementioned competition with the subsidiaries of CNHTC, the company will take necessary and feasible measures in accordance with laws to avoid the company and other enterprises controlled by the company from engaging in harmful or wrongful competition with Weichai Power, ensure compliance with domestic and international laws, regulations, securities supervision rules, and Weichai Power's articles of association, exercise the rights of shareholders and fulfil the obligations of shareholders on an equal basis with other shareholders, fully respect Weichai Power's independent and autonomous operations, refrain from using its controlling status to make unjust benefits or restricting any of Weichai Power's normal business opportunities or development, treat all relevant enterprises fairly, engage in fair competition based on its core competitive advantages and in accordance with market commercial principles, and not harm the legitimate interests of Weichai Power and other shareholders.
-
If any breach of the above undertakings causes losses to the listed company, the company shall bear corresponding liability for compensation pursuant to the laws.
-
The above undertakings shall remain valid throughout the period during which the company is the de facto controller of Weichai Power."
In the undertaking quoted above, "the company" refers to Shandong Heavy Industry.
2. Performance of the Undertaking and Reasons for Extension of Performance of the Undertaking
Since the provision of the aforementioned undertaking, Shandong Heavy Industry has fully respected the Company and CNHTC's independent and autonomous operation, and actively safeguarded the rights and interests of the minority shareholders of each party's listed company(ies) as the de facto controller of both parties. During this period, Shandong Heavy Industry has actively explored, and attempted to implement, various solutions of competition, including asset restructuring and business adjustment. However, there remain to be challenges in the execution process due to industry
- 5 -
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
competition stemming from the administrative transfer of state-owned property rights, and that the proposed solutions involve multiple listed entities in Shenzhen and Hong Kong, with relevant property rights subject to state-owned asset supervision across different provinces. Taking into consideration multiple market impact factors, the complexity of regulatory rules and procedures, and existing conditions being unfavourable, Shandong Heavy Industry is unable to perform the original undertaking within the agreed schedule. An extended period of time is therefore required by Shandong Heavy Industry to assess the abovementioned solutions, as well as their practicability, in order to implement the undertaking.
3. Contents of the Extension of Performance of the Undertaking on Non-Competition
Based on careful analysis of the current actual circumstances, Shandong Heavy Industry intends to extend the original undertaking by five years with all other terms unchanged, and will actively explore further solutions.
4. Impact of the Extension of Performance of the Undertaking on the Company
The extension of the undertaking on non-competition by Shandong Heavy Industry is made based on the current actual circumstances, and does not involve the withdrawal or waiver of the original undertaking, which is in compliance with the relevant requirements under the Guideline No. 4 on Supervision and Administration of Listed Companies – Commitments by Listed Companies and their Related Parties (《上市公司監管指引第4號 – 上市公司及其相關方承諾》) and will not affect the Company's normal operations, and there do not exist any circumstances harming interests of the Company and all of its shareholders, in particular minority shareholders.
5. Views of the Independent Non-Executive Directors and Approval by the Board
The independent non-executive directors of the Company have considered and approved the resolution on the extension of the undertaking on non-competition by a special meeting, and are of the view that the extension of the undertaking on non-competition by Shandong Heavy Industry is made based on the current actual circumstances, and does not involve the withdrawal or waiver of the original undertaking, which is in compliance with the relevant requirements under the Guideline No. 4 on Supervision and Administration of Listed Companies – Commitments by Listed Companies and their Related Parties (《上市公司監管指引第4號 – 上市公司及其相關方承諾》) and will not affect the Company's normal operations, and there do not exist any circumstances harming interest of the Company and all of its shareholders, in particular minority shareholders. The independent non-executive directors have unanimously agreed to submit the relevant resolution for consideration by the Board of Directors of the Company.

At the relevant Board meeting, Mr. Ma Changhai, Mr. Wang Decheng, Mr. Huang Weibiao, Mr. Sun Shaojun and Mr. Zhang Liangfu have abstained from voting in respect of the resolution on the extension of the undertaking on non-competition for the reasons of their respective interest and/or position (as the case may be) in the related person(s).
