Reference is made to the circular (the ''Circular'') and the notice (the ''Notice'') of the annual general meeting (the ''AGM'') of Shanghai Prime Machinery Company Limited (the ''Company'') both dated 16 April 2020 and the form of proxy (the ''Proxy Form''), regarding the AGM of the Company to be held at Meeting Center, North 6th Floor, 2747 Songhuajiang Road, Hongkou District, Shanghai, PRC at 1:00 p.m. on Friday, 19 June 2020.

CLARIFICATION ON LATEST REGISTRATION DATE FOR THE SHAREHOLDERS' ENTITLEMENT OF THE PROPOSED FINAL DIVIDEND

Reference is made to the annual results announcement (the ''Annual Results Announcement'') dated 29 March 2020. Given that 25 June 2020 is a Hong Kong public holiday, the latest registration date for the shareholders' entitlement of the proposed final dividend is in practice 24 June 2020. Therefore, the second paragraph under the section ''CLOSURE OF BOOKS'' on page 47 of the Annual Results Announcement is revised as below, the rest of the Annual Results Announcement remains the same with no change. The Company has also made the same revision in the Circular.

''In addition, the Company's register of members will be closed from Friday, 26 June 2020 to Monday, 6 July 2020 (both dates inclusive) for the purpose of ascertaining the shareholders' entitlement to the proposed final dividend of the Company.
