VOLUNTARY ANNOUNCEMENT

CHANGE IN SHAREHOLDING PERCENTAGE OF

THE INDIRECT CONTROLLING SHAREHOLDER OF THE COMPANY

This announcement is made by the Company on a voluntary basis.

The Company has been informed by Teda Holding, its indirect controlling shareholder, that in order to implement the three-year action plan for state-owned enterprise reform ( 國企改革三年行動方案) issued by the State Council, the Tianjin Government will further strengthen state-owned capital so as to build up a strong reputation for the reform and growth of Tianjin's state-owned enterprises, as well as implement multiple measures to enhance their overall strengths. Hence, an internal integration between TEDA Holding and Tsinlien Investment Holdings has been implemented, and Tianjin SASAC has transferred all of its 100% shareholding interest in Tsinlien Investment Holdings to TEDA Holding at nil consideration (the "Transfer").

The industrial and commercial registration of change for the Transfer was completed on 28 April 2021. Tsinlien Investment Holdings holds approximately 4.07% of the issued Shares of the Company through its subsidiaries. Upon completion of the Transfer, Tsinlien Investment Holdings became directly wholly owned by TEDA Holding. Teda Holding increased its interest in the issued Shares of the Company by approximately 4.07% indirectly through Tsinlien Investment Holdings and ultimately holds an aggregate of approximately 39.5% of the issued Shares of the Company indirectly.

The SFC has granted a waiver from the obligation to make a general offer by Teda Holding for all Shares of the Company as a result of the Transfer under Note 6(a) to Rule 26.1 of the Takeovers Code.
