Basis of consideration

The considerations payable by the Company under the New Parts Supply Agreements are determined:

  1. after arm's length negotiations between the parties thereto; and
  2. by reference to the statistics published in the "China Automotive Industry Yearbook" ( 中 國 汽 車 工 業 年 鑒), according to which the average profit margin of the automobile industry in the PRC was 7.51% in 2018.

- 23 -

The above average profit margin of 7.51% for the automobile industry in the PRC in 2018 as quoted from "China Automotive Industry Yearbook" is an average level and the actual profit margin will vary from transaction to transaction depending on the nature, prevailing market prices, technology specifications, quality standards of the parts and the supply-demand relationship in the market. In addition to the statistics published in "China Automotive Industry Yearbook", the Company and Qingling Group have also taken reference from the historical transaction prices of the parts in determining the maximum profit margin level. Furthermore, the profit margin of certain parts are relatively higher as it involves complex technologies and it is relatively difficult to implement quality control. As such, the Company and Qingling Group Companies agree to set the maximum profit margin for supplying parts under the New Parts Supply Agreements at 8%, while the actual profit margin will be determined based on the nature, functionality, technology and quality standards of different parts.

Currently, the Company is the only enterprise in the PRC engaging in the manufacturing of commercial vehicles under the brand name of Isuzu, and the Company and Qingling Group Companies are responsible for assembling certain parts of vehicles based on the product drawings, technology specifications, and quality standards given or confirmed by Isuzu under its guidance. In the event that an Independent Third Party is not authorised by Isuzu or the Company, it will not be able to produce relevant parts and meet the quality standards of Isuzu. Since no authorisation is given to Independent Third Parties in the market for the production of most of the parts supplied by Isuzu to the Company for assembling Isuzu commercial vehicles, no comparable market price is available for those parts, which include cylinder blocks, cylinder heads, rod castings of engines, specified axles for Isuzu 100P600P700PF light-,medium-, and heavy-duty trucks, supplied under the New Parts Supply Agreements.

On the other hand, comparable market prices are available for a few of the parts supplied under the New Parts Supply Agreements, such as engine oil pans. As such, the Company will determine the market price of those parts based on the price of the parts with similar specifications, technology and quality requirements etc. in the automotive parts market.

If there is no comparable market price, the consideration in respect of the corresponding parts supplied under the New Parts Supply Agreements will be determined by reference to the actual or reasonable costs (whichever is lower) incurred plus a profit margin of not more that 8%, which is the maximum consideration to be payable by the Company under the New Parts Supply Agreements. The actual consideration to be payable by the Company will be determined by reference to the prevailing market conditions and in any event on terms no less favourable to the Company than terms offered to Independent Third Parties.

The Directors (excluding the independent non-executive Directors who will form their view after taking into account recommendations of the Independent Financial Adviser) are of the view that the New Parts Supply Agreements are on normal commercial terms, and that their terms are fair and reasonable and in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

1,752,390,000

The Company will seek approval from the Independent Shareholders in respect of the transactions under the New Parts Supply Agreements and the aforesaid aggregated annual caps, which are set by reference to the above projected transaction amounts.

Basis of proposed annual caps

The aforesaid proposed annual caps are ascertained by reference to (i) the historical sales volume; (ii) the projected sales volume for the three years ending 31 December 2022; and (iii) the expected increase in the number of new vehicles of new models or different specifications to be launched and made available for sale by the Company.

Reasons for entering into the New Parts Supply Agreements

As the Company mainly produces various types of vehicles and components under the brand of Isuzu, the Company has to, from time to time, in the course of its business, purchase: (i) stamping components, compartments and other parts and components;

  1. casts of engine cylinder blocks, cylinder heads and main bearing covers and other parts and components; (iii) raw forgings of engine crankshafts, connecting rods and other parts and components; (iv) front and rear motor vehicle axles and other parts and components; (v) motor vehicle seats and other parts and components; (vi) plastic parts and other parts and components; and (vii) aluminum parts and other parts and components. Since the principal businesses of Qingling Group, CQCC, CQFC, CQAC, CQNHK, CQPC and CQACL include the production and retail of products mentioned in the items (i) to (vii) above; and the Qingling Group Companies produces such products in good quality and are willing to produce such products in accordance with the specifications of the Company, hence the Company purchases the said products from the Qingling Group Companies (as the case may be).

As the Company mainly manufactures automobiles under the brand of Isuzu, the Company's specifications for all product parts must conform with Isuzu's standards. Each connected person has already obtained from Isuzu the technical know-how and specific equipment, hence they are capable of manufacturing based on the specifications of Isuzu's product parts. The Directors believe that the other suppliers do

- 25 -

not possess such technical know-how and specific equipment that Isuzu has, and that even if the other suppliers may manufacture parts according to the same specifications, the quality of these products may not conform with the standards of Isuzu. Therefore, in view of the fact that the Group does not require any other products than those supplied by its connected persons, it is of the view that it would not be necessary to look for other sources.

Further, CQFC requires various supporting services such as repair and maintenance services for the machineries and other auxiliary and utility-related services to carry out its regular operations. The Directors believe that provision of those services as set out in the New CQFC Agreement by the Company to CQFC would facilitate the operation of the Group and minimise the costs of the Group in setting up crews to handle the repair and maintenance services and other related services. Also, CQAC requires certain machineries for its production and inspection of vehicle axles. Such vehicle axles will then be provided by CQAC to the Company. The Directors believe that the leasing of such machineries by the Company to CQAC as set out in the New CQAC Agreement would utilise the Group's resources fully and centralise management of the Group.

Moulds to Qingling Group, CQCC, CQFC, CQPC,

CQACL, CQNHK, QIEC and CQAC

Price determination

:

As there are no sufficient comparable transactions,

the consideration is determined by reference to

reasonable costs incurred plus a profit margin of

not more than 8%

The New Qingling Group Moulds Supply Agreement is a master agreement which sets out the principles upon which detailed terms are to be determined between Qingling Moulds on the one hand, and Qingling Group, CQCC, CQFC, CQPC, CQACL, CQNHK, QIEC and CQAC on the other. Pursuant to the New Qingling Group Moulds Supply Agreement, Qingling Moulds will enter into definitive agreements with Qingling Group, CQCC, CQFC, CQPC, CQACL, CQNHK, QIEC and CQAC from time to time to provide for detailed terms of each single transaction in accordance with the principles set out in the New Qingling Group Moulds Supply Agreement. Such detailed terms include, but without limitation, prices, payment and settlement terms, quantities, standard of quality and inspection of products (where applicable) and other terms and conditions in relation to the provision of products and/or services. Qingling Moulds, Qingling Group, CQCC, CQFC, CQPC, CQACL, CQNHK, QIEC and CQAC agree that such detailed terms shall be on normal commercial terms or, if there is no sufficient comparable transactions to assess whether they are on normal commercial terms, on terms fair and reasonable to Qingling Moulds. Qingling Group, CQCC, CQFC, CQPC, CQACL, CQNHK, QIEC and CQAC also undertake that the terms offered to Qingling Moulds shall be no less favourable than terms offered to Independent Third Parties.

The transactions contemplated under the New Qingling Group Moulds Supply Agreement relate to the sale of moulds and related products and/or the provision of maintenance and processing services by Qingling Moulds to the relevant Qingling Group Companies and QIEC whereas the transactions contemplated under the New Parts Supply Agreements relate to the purchase of automobile parts from the Qingling Group Companies. Therefore, the transactions contemplated under the New Qingling Group Moulds Supply Agreement will not be aggregated with the transactions contemplated under the New Parts Supply Agreements and Rules 14A.81 and 14A.83 of the Listing Rules will not apply.

Basis of consideration

The consideration payable by the relevant Qingling Group Companies and QIEC under the New Qingling Group Moulds Supply Agreement is determined after arm's length negotiations between the parties thereto and on terms no less favourable to Qingling Moulds than terms offered to Independent Third Parties. The Directors (including independent non-executive Directors) are of the view that the New Qingling Group Moulds Supply Agreement is on normal commercial terms or better and in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group, and that their terms are fair and reasonable and in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Basis of proposed annual caps

The aforesaid proposed annual caps for the New Qingling Group Moulds Supply Agreement in the relevant periods are determined based on the estimated amounts of moulds and related products (including aluminium, forging and plastic mould products) required by Qingling Group, CQCC, CQFC, CQPC, CQACL, CQNHK, QIEC and CQAC for the production of an estimated number of different types of automobile parts and components for 2020, 2021 and 2022.

Reasons for entering into the New Qingling Group Moulds Supply Agreement

The products manufactured by Qingling Group are required to meet the standards required by Isuzu. As the moulds manufactured by Qingling Moulds are of the quality and fulfill the technology standard so required, and the price is lower than similar imported products, Qingling Group wishes to continue purchasing moulds from Qingling Moulds through entering into the New Qingling Group Moulds Supply Agreement.

Basis of proposed annual caps

The aforesaid proposed annual caps of the New Warehouse Leasing Agreement are determined based on the rentals payable by the Company to Qingling Group and its relevant subsidiaries under the New Warehouse Leasing Agreement.

Reasons for entering into the New Warehouse Leasing Agreement

The Company requires storage capacity for imported parts, components and stock. As Qingling Group possesses free space for the required storage of the Company, and in view of the convenient location of the Warehouses from the production plants of the Company such that inventory can be stored and retrieved easily, the Group intends to continue to rent the Warehouses from Qingling Group.

Also, the Company's headquarter is located at the Land. Owing to the continuous development of the Group, additional space is required by the Group to meet its operational needs including for storage of autoparts and raw materials, for testing of autoparts for developing products by the development department, and for using as storerooms. Accordingly, the Group intends to continue the leasing of land and premises from Qingling Group.

Hence, the parties entered into the New Warehouse Leasing Agreement.

The Directors (including independent non-executive Directors) are of the view that the terms of the New Warehouse Leasing Agreement are fair and reasonable, and that relevant transactions will be conducted on normal commercial terms and in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group and are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Basis of proposed annual caps

The aforesaid proposed annual caps of the New Autoparts and Materials Agreement represents an aggregate of the estimated amount of transactions in such period or years in respect of (i) the supply of scrap metal; (ii) the supply of semi-finished auto parts; and (iii) the supply of raw and crafting materials.

The estimated amount of transactions in respect of the supply of scrap metal by the Company was ascertained with reference to the actual amount of the relevant scrap metal left over from the Company's manufacturing process in 2018 and the amount of scrap metal to be produced for the three years ending 31 December 2020, 2021 and 2022 based on the estimated sales volume of the Company's products. The basis of the projected amount of transactions in respect of the semi-finished auto parts supplied by the Company under the New Autoparts and Materials Agreement was ascertained with reference to the estimated demand for such semi-finished auto parts.

For the supply of raw and crafting materials by the Company, the basis of its estimated amount of transactions was ascertained with reference to the purchase and consumption of raw and crafting materials by the Qingling Autoparts Companies in 2018 and the projected increase in demand for raw and crafting materials, in line with the anticipated growth in business in the three years ending 31 December 2020, 2021 and 2022.

Reasons for entering into the New Autoparts and Materials Agreement

Scrap metal, such as scrap steel and mechanical processing iron scrap, has been left over from the production process of the Company, while companies which have supplied and will continue to supply auto parts to the Company, such as CQCC, has been purchasing scrap metal on market for the manufacturing of such auto parts. In view of a matching of resources, the Company entered into the New Autoparts and Materials Agreement to supply scrap metal to CQCC to enhance quality management and lower the costs of the auto parts which will in turn be supplied by CQCC to the Company.

Similarly, by leveraging on the Company's mature technology knowhow and to maximize the Company's existing processing capacity, the Company will manufacture and supply to CQNHK semi-finished stamping auto parts, which will be further processed into final auto parts and be supplied back to the Company, thereby maintaining the quality while lowering the costs of the auto parts supplied to the Company. The Company will supply to Qingling Zhuanyong semi-finished stamping auto parts for further processing into auto parts for modified cars, so as to enhance the sales of modified cars, and thereby enhancing the market share of the various types of chassis produced by the Group. Autoparts Manufacturing will further manufacture automobile parts and components following the supply of semi-finished products by the Company to it and then provide the same to the Company.

- 41 -

Moreover, as the Company has been sourcing raw and crafting materials for its own consumption during the production process, the Company will also, pursuant to the New Autoparts and Materials Agreement, source appropriate raw and crafting materials for the Qingling Autoparts Companies, taking advantage of bulk-purchasing of such materials. This practice will enable the Company to strengthen the Company's technical support and management of the raw and crafting materials used by the Qingling Autoparts Companies for manufacturing of auto parts supplied to the Company, and to lower the costs of products supplied to the Company.

Reasons for entering into the New Qingling Moulds Supply Agreement

The products manufactured by the Company must meet the standards required by Isuzu. The moulds manufactured by Qingling Moulds are of high quality and fulfill the required technology standard, and the price is lower than similar imported products. On the other hand, Qingling Moulds needs raw materials and processing services of the Company to manufacture moulds and related products. Qingling Moulds also requires various supporting services such as repair and maintenance services for the machineries, after-sales services for its products and other auxiliary and utility- related services to carry out its regular operations. The Directors believe that provision of those services as set out in the New Qingling Moulds Supply Agreement by the Company to Qingling Moulds would facilitate the operation of the Group and minimise the costs of the Group in setting up a team to handle the repair and maintenance services, aftersales services and other related services. It would also utilise the Group's resources fully and centralise management of the Group. As such, the parties wish to enter into the New Qingling Moulds Supply Agreement.

The actual amounts for the two years ended 31 December 2018 had not exceeded the annual caps for the relevant years. It is expected that the aggregate amount for the year ending 31 December 2019 will not exceed the corresponding annual cap for that year.

Basis of consideration

The rent for the Land (Qingling Moulds) is determined with reference to the prevailing market rent and the rent paid by Qingling Moulds under the Qingling Moulds Lease, and on normal commercial terms through arm's length negotiations between the parties thereto and on terms no less favourable to the Company than those offered by the Company to Independent Third Parties.

Proposed annual caps and the basis thereof

The Company expects that the annual rent to be received from Qingling Moulds for lease of the Land (Qingling Moulds) under the New Qingling Moulds Lease will be no more than RMB50,000 for each of the three years ending 31 December 2022. The annual caps for the New Qingling Moulds Lease are determined by reference to the rentals payable by Qingling Moulds to the Company at the time being under the Qingling Moulds Lease.

Reasons for entering into the New Qingling Moulds Lease

The New Qingling Moulds Lease has been entered into to facilitate the operation of the Group. Since Qingling Moulds, which is owned as to 50.56% by the Company and 49.44% by Isuzu, is set up for manufacturing and sales of moulds, it is necessary and also beneficial to the operation of the Group to allow Qingling Moulds to lease the land for manufacturing and operation. It would also utilise the Group's resources fully and centralise management of the Group.

The Directors, including independent non-executive Directors, are of the view that the terms of the New Qingling Moulds Lease are fair and reasonable, and that relevant transactions will be conducted on normal commercial terms in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group and are in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

The Company and Isuzu agree that such detailed terms shall be on normal commercial terms or, if there is no sufficient comparable transactions to assess whether they are on normal commercial terms, on terms fair and reasonable to the Company. Isuzu also undertakes that the terms offered to the Company shall be no less favourable than terms offered to Independent Third Parties in the market where the Company locates.

- 48 -

In the event that a competitor (including a potential competitor) of Isuzu holds Shares of the same number as or more than that held by Isuzu or there is a change in control in Qingling Group, Isuzu may terminate the New Isuzu Supply Agreement by giving written notice to the Company.

Should Isuzu cease to be a connected person of the Company and the transactions under the New Isuzu Supply Agreement cease to be a continuing connected transaction of the Company, Isuzu is entitled to terminate the New Isuzu Supply Agreement by notifying the Company in writing.

None of the aggregate amounts above exceeded their respective annual caps for the two years ended 31 December 2018. It is expected that the aggregate amount for the year ending 31 December 2019 will not exceed the respective caps for the corresponding year or periods.

Basis of consideration

As there are no sufficient comparable transactions, the consideration in respect of the New Isuzu Supply Agreement is determined by reference to the actual or reasonable costs (whichever is lower) incurred plus a profit margin of not more than 10%, which is determined by reference to the statistics published in the "China Automotive Industry Yearbook" ( 中 國 汽 車 工 業 年 鑒) (2018: the average profit margin for the China's automobile industry was 7.51%). The Company noted that the maximum profit margin of 10% determined by the Company and Isuzu is slightly higher than the average level of the industry. The Company considers that the maximum profit margin of 10% is reasonable as Isuzu has exclusive technology and quality standards designed for parts and components of commercial vehicles. The Company also considers that automobile parts and components produced by Isuzu are exclusive, and the technology and quality of its products are not available in the domestic market of the PRC. In order to ensure that the vehicles produced and sold under the brand name of Isuzu reach the technology and performance standards as required, the Company needs to purchase relevant automobile parts and components from Isuzu. The Company also made reference to the estimated prices of the same automobile parts and components sold by Isuzu in the domestic markets of Japan to compare and determine the purchase price from Isuzu. Although the market conditions in Japan and the PRC are different and a

- 49 -

direct comparison between prices of the two might not be appropriate in usual cases, given that the automobile parts and components from Isuzu are sold to the Company exclusively in the PRC and no substitutes are available in the domestic market of the PRC, the estimated price of the same in Japan, together with certain additional fees (e.g. packaging and transportation fees), can serve as references for assessing the reasonableness of the price charged by Isuzu. On the basis of the above factors, the Company agreed to set the maximum profit margin level to be received by Isuzu for the transactions contemplated under the New Isuzu Supply Agreement at 10% when determining the consideration.

As Isuzu would not provide the Company with information on the profit margin level of its products sold in the domestic market of Japan, the price of automobile parts and components purchased by the Company from Isuzu will be determined on the basis of the actual or reasonable cost (whichever is the lowest) of those automobile parts and components plus a maximum profit margin of 10%. In determining the prices of the relevant parts, the Company will also make reference to (i) the estimated prices of the same automobile parts and components sold in the domestic market of Japan; and (ii) additional fees required, such as packaging and transportation fees, so as to compare and determine the purchase prices of automobile parts and components supplied by Isuzu. As such, the Company believes that the purchase prices of parts to be supplied under the New Isuzu Supply Agreement will not be less favourable than that of similar automobile parts and components supplied by Isuzu to Independent Third Parties in the domestic market of Japan.

The consideration payable by the Company under the New Isuzu Supply Agreement was determined after arm's length negotiations between the parties thereto and on terms no less favourable than terms offered by Isuzu to Independent Third Parties. The Directors (excluding the independent non-executive Directors who will form their view after taking into account recommendations of the Independent Financial Adviser) are of the view that the New Isuzu Supply Agreement is on normal commercial terms, and that their terms are fair and reasonable and in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Proposed annual caps

The Directors estimate or project that under the New Isuzu Supply Agreement, the value of transactions between Isuzu and the Company will not exceed the amounts set out below:

The Company will seek approval from the Independent Shareholders in respect of the transactions under the New Isuzu Supply Agreement and the aforesaid annual caps.

- 50 -

Basis of proposed annual caps

The aforesaid annual caps for the New Isuzu Supply Agreement are set by the Board by reference to (i) the historical sales volume; (ii) the projected sales volume for the duration of the relevant agreements, taking into account, inter alia, the overall business environment and specific growth strategies; (iii) the number of new vehicles of new models or different specifications to be launched and made available for sale by the Company; and (iv) the expected expansion of sales network through distributors in the PRC.

Reasons for entering into the New Isuzu Supply Agreement

For its business, the Company needs to purchase automobile parts and components from Isuzu from time to time, and requires Isuzu to supply skills and technical knowhow in order to fulfill product standards and specifications required by Isuzu. Hence, the two parties entered into the New Isuzu Supply Agreement.

The New Company Supply Agreement is a master agreement which sets out the principles upon which detailed terms are to be determined between the Company and Isuzu. Pursuant to the New Company Supply Agreement, the Company will enter into definitive agreements from time to time to provide for detailed terms of each single transaction in accordance with the principles set out in the New Company Supply

Agreement. Such detailed terms include, but without limitation, prices, payment and settlement terms, quantity, standard of quality, testing, product liability, liability for compensation and other terms and conditions in relation to the provision of the vehicles, automobile parts, components and/or accessories. The Company and Isuzu agree that such detailed terms shall be on normal commercial terms or, if there is no sufficient comparable transactions to assess whether they are on normal commercial terms, on terms fair and reasonable to the Company. Isuzu also undertakes that the terms offered to the Company shall be no less favourable than terms offered to Independent Third Parties in the market where Isuzu locates.

In the event that a competitor (including a potential competitor) of Isuzu holds Shares of the same number as or more than that held by Isuzu or there is a change in control in Qingling Group, Isuzu may terminate the New Company Supply Agreement by giving written notice to the Company.

Should Isuzu cease to be a connected person of the Company and the transactions under the New Company Supply Agreement cease to be a continuing connected transaction of the Company, Isuzu is entitled to terminate the New Company Supply Agreement by notifying the Company in writing.

None of the aggregate amounts above exceeded their respective annual caps for the two years ended 31 December 2018. It is expected that the aggregate amount for the year ending 31 December 2019 will not exceed the respective caps for the corresponding year or periods.

Basis of consideration

The prices of the vehicles, accessory sets and other automobile parts and components to be supplied by the Company to Isuzu and/or its wholly-owned subsidiary will be determined by arm's length negotiations between the parties. The Company will

- 52 -

only supply the vehicles, accessory sets and other automobile parts and components as those supplied under the New Company Supply Agreement to (i) Isuzu and/or its wholly-owned subsidiary; and (ii) qingling motors outlets for automobile maintenance and parts replacement purposes. Isuzu is the only party in the Japanese market to which such accessory sets and other automobile parts and components are sold, while qingling motors outlets are the only Independent Third Parties in the PRC to which such products are sold. The prices for exporting accessory sets and other automobile parts and components by the Company to Isuzu are prices offered to overseas manufacturers, while the prices for supplying the same to qingling motors outlets are domestic retail prices. Given that the locations of the market and the sectors of industry (i.e. manufacturers and retailers) for the sale of such products to Isuzu and qingling motors outlets are different, different pricing strategies will be applied by the Company and a direct comparison between the prices of the two would be not be appropriate. As such, there is no sufficient comparable transaction for the accessory sets and other automobile parts and components supplied under the New Company Supply Agreement.

As there is no sufficient comparable transaction, the consideration in respect of the New Company Supply Agreement is determined by reference to the actual or reasonable costs (whichever is lower) incurred plus a profit margin of not more than 10%, which is determined by reference to the statistics published in the "China Automotive Industry Yearbook" ( 中 國 汽 車 工 業 年 鑒) (2018: the average profit margin for the China's automobile industry was 7.51%). As the agreements entered between the Company and Isuzu were negotiated on arm's length basis, when determining the consideration of the New Company Supply Agreement, the Company and Isuzu have also made reference to the maximum profit margin level of 10% for the transactions contemplated under the New Isuzu Supply Agreement.

The consideration payable by Isuzu under the New Company Supply Agreement was determined after arm's length negotiations between the parties thereto and on no less favourable terms offered to the Company than terms offered to Independent Third Parties. The Company exports products to Isuzu under the New Company Supply Agreement and the maximum profit margin level for the exported products being higher than the average profit margin level for China's automobile industry in 2018 as set out in the "China Automotive Industry Yearbook" was agreed on arm's length negotiations between the parties thereto and the terms in each of the relevant contracts (such as the New Isuzu Supply Agreement) were determined on the same basis.

The Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) are of the view that the New Company Supply Agreement is on normal commercial terms or better and in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group, and that its terms are fair and reasonable and in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Reasons for entering into the New Company Supply Agreement

As the parts and components and vehicles manufactured by the Group fulfill the international standards as required by Isuzu and the prices of the Group's products are competitive, Isuzu wishes to purchase parts and components and vehicles from the Group. Furthermore, the Company aims to enter the international market, and hence the parties entered into the New Company Supply Agreement.

The above annual caps for the Trademark Licensing Agreement are set by the Board by reference to (i) the historical sales volume of the relevant series of vehicles; (ii) the projected sales volume of the relevant series of vehicles for the duration of the agreement taking into consideration, among other things, the expected increase in sales volume of vehicles under the brand name of "Isuzu" in the domestic market of the PRC; and (iii) the exchange rate of RMB to JPY at RMB1: JPY15.44.

Reasons for entering into the Trademark Licensing Agreement

"Isuzu" is a world-renowned brand of commercial vehicles. The Company has been introducing Isuzu's products and technologies to manufacture products in compliance with the quality standards required by Isuzu, including but not limited to 600P, 100P and TF/UC series vehicles and those vehicles employing 3XCAB series cabs. The use of Isuzu's trademark on these products could enhance their market recognition. As a result, the Company entered into the Trademark Licensing Agreement to obtain the right to use the trademark and emblem of Isuzu.

The Directors (including independent non-executive Directors) are of the view that the Trademark Licensing Agreement is on normal commercial terms or better and in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group, and that its terms are fair and reasonable and in the interest of the Company and the shareholders of the Company as a whole.

The Company will seek approval from the Independent Shareholders in respect of the transactions under the New Supply Agreement and the aforesaid annual caps.

Basis of proposed annual caps

The said proposed annual caps for the New Supply Agreement are determined with reference to (i) the production capacity of each car model of the Group; (ii) the expected sales volume of the Company from the effective date of the New Supply Agreement to the end of 2022; and (iii) the aggregate supply and demand of QIEC after the Merger.

Reasons for entering into the New Supply Agreement

To enjoy the economy of scale, the business of the Group requires certain degree of division of labour among its members, with each Group member specialising in a particular area of the business, such as production of engines, marketing, provision of repair and maintenance services, testing services etc. QIEC is principally engaged in the manufacturing and sale of vehicle-used engines and their parts. The Directors believe that provision of engines and their parts from QIEC to the Company and the provision of engine parts and raw materials from the Company to QIEC would facilitate the operation of the Group and minimise the costs of the Group in acquiring similar products from Independent Third Parties.

- 66 -

The consideration payable by the relevant parties under the New Supply Agreement is determined after arm's length negotiations between the parties thereto. The Directors (excluding the independent non-executive Directors who will form their view after taking into account recommendations of the Independent Financial Adviser) are of the view that the New Supply Agreement is on normal commercial terms, and that its terms are fair and reasonable and in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as

a whole.

The Directors (including independent non-executive Directors) are of the view that the terms of the New Consolidated Services Agreement are fair and reasonable, and the relevant transactions will be conducted on normal commercial terms in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group and and are in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Basis of proposed annual caps

The said proposed annual caps for the New Testing Agreement are determined with reference to the demand for product development, testing and inspection of QIEC and Isuzu Qingling Engineering.

Reasons for entering into the New Testing Agreement

To enjoy the economy of scale, the business of the Group requires certain degree of division of labour among its members, with each Group member specialising in a particular area of the business, such as production of engines, marketing or provision of repair and maintenance services, testing services etc. The Directors believe that the provision of the testing services by the Company to QIEC and Isuzu Qingling Engineering under the New Testing Agreement would contribute to accelerating the product development and ensuring the quality, and hence efficiently and effectively provide high-quality products for the Company, facilitate the operation of the Group, utilise the Group's resources fully and share the costs of investments and minimise the costs of the Group in acquiring similar services from Independent Third Parties.

The Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) are of the view that the terms of the New Testing Agreement are fair and reasonable, such transactions will continue to be conducted on normal commercial terms and in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group, and such transactions are in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

X. CONTINUING CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS

If the annual value of each of the transactions contemplated under the CCT Agreements is likely to exceed the respective proposed cap or the threshold provided under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules (as the case may be) or there is any material change to the CCT Agreements, the Company will take necessary steps to ensure compliance with all applicable rules under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

XI. REQUIREMENTS UNDER THE LISTING RULES

As at the date of this announcement, Qingling Moulds is owned as to 50.56% and 49.44% respectively by the Company and Isuzu. As Qingling Moulds is a non-wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and Isuzu is a substantial shareholder of the Company and is entitled to exercise, or control the exercise of, more than 10% of the voting power at any general meeting of Qingling Moulds, Qingling Moulds, is also a connected person of the Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. As Qingling Group is a substantial shareholder of the Company holding approximately 50.10% of the entire issued share capital of the Company and CQCC, CQFC, CQACL, CQAC, CQPC, CQNHK, QAC, QM, Qingling Zhuanyong, Keyu Autoparts, CQVPM and Autoparts Manufacturing are owned as to 75%, 75%, 72.43%, 80%, 75.15%, 55.8%, 100%, 100%, 100%, 100%, 75% and 100% respectively by Qingling Group, they are associates of Qingling Group. Therefore, Qingling Group, CQCC, CQFC, CQACL, CQAC, CQPC, CQNHK, QAC, QM, Qingling Zhuanyong, Keyu Autoparts, CQVPM and Autoparts Manufacturing are all connected persons of the

As at the date of this announcement, Qingling Group is a substantial shareholder of the Company, holding approximately 50.10% of the entire issued share capital of the Company. Qingling Group also holds as to 30.06% of QIEC. In view of the said interest held by Qingling Group in the Company and QIEC, Qingling Group and its associates will be required to abstain from voting on ordinary resolutions to be proposed at the EGM in respect of the New Parts Supply Agreements, the New Chassis Supply Agreement, the New Supply Agreement and their respective annual caps.

As at the date of this announcement, Isuzu is a substantial shareholder of the Company, holding approximately 20.00% of the entire issued share capital of the Company. Isuzu also holds as to 50.61% of QIEC; Isuzu and Isuzu China (being a wholly-owned subsidiary of Isuzu) hold approximately 21.54% of CQCC, 23.20% of CQFC, 20% of CQAC, 23% of CQACL, 19% of CQPC and 5% of CQNHK. In view of the said interest held by Isuzu and Isuzu China in the Company, QIEC and the relevant Qingling Group Companies respectively, Isuzu and its associates will be required to abstain from voting on ordinary resolutions to be proposed at the EGM in respect of the New Isuzu Supply Agreement, the New Parts Supply Agreements, the New Supply Agreement, the New Sales JV Supply Agreement and their respective annual caps.

The Independent Board Committee has been formed to advise the Independent Shareholders as to whether the terms of the Non-exempt Continuing Connected Transactions and the respective annual caps are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole, and to advise the Independent Shareholders on how to vote on the resolutions to be proposed at the EGM, taking into account the recommendations of the Independent Financial Adviser.
