  1. 2020 MASTER DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENTS
  1. Background

Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 11 December 2018 in respect of certain continuing connected transactions with Yuen Tai and SZ Kingworld Lifeshine contemplated under the 2019 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement and the 2019 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement, respectively.

In view of the prospective expiry of the 2019 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement and the 2019 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement, the Board announced that on 20 November 2019 (after trading hours), (1) HK Kingworld, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into the 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement with Yuen Tai for the purchase of the Yuen Tai Products for the three years ending 31 December 2022, and (2) SZ Kingworld, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into the 2020 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement with SZ Kingworld Lifeshine for the purchase of the SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products for the three years ending 31 December 2022 and proposed to renew their respective annual caps for the three years ending 31 December 2022. Details of the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements are as follows:

  1. 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement

1. Date: 20 November 2019

(as supplemented by the 2020 Yuen Tai Supplemental Agreement dated 24 December 2019)

- 8 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  1. Parties:
    1. HK Kingworld, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company
    2. Yuen Tai
  2. Description of the transactions:

Pursuant to the 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement, HK Kingworld or the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company shall purchase the Yuen Tai Products, which mainly include Fengbao Jianfu Capsule and Pu Ji Kang Gan Granules, from Yuen Tai and act as the exclusive distributor for distribution of the Yuen Tai Products in the Greater China.

4. Condition precedent:

The 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement shall take effect subject to and conditional upon obtaining the Independent Shareholders' approval in respect of the 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement and the proposed annual caps for the transactions under the agreement.

5. Term:

The 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement is for a term of three years with effect from 16 January 2020 or the date on which the 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement and the proposed annual caps for the transactions under the agreement are approved by the Independent Shareholders (whichever is later) and ending on 31 December 2022 (both days inclusive).

6. Pricing and payment terms:

The 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement was negotiated and entered into on an arm's length basis and on normal commercial terms. The terms and conditions (including but not limited to the prices) on which the Yuen Tai Products are to be purchased by the Group should be on normal commercial terms and, where there is comparable product available in the market, should be no less favourable than those obtained from independent third parties by the Group. The Group will satisfy the consideration of such purchases by its internal resources.

The prices of the Yuen Tai Products to be purchased by the Group will be based on the prevailing market prices of similar products and the unit prices of the Yuen Tai Products from time to time and will be no less favourable to the Group than those terms offered by other independent third parties suppliers, where there is comparable product available in the market. If price comparison is not applicable, the price would be accepted with reference to a minimum profit margin of approximately 25% on average to ensure no loss making for purchasing the Yuen Tai Products.

- 9 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The actual amounts, types, unit prices, delivery dates and methods of delivery of the Yuen Tai Products to the Group will be subject to individual orders placed by the Group and accepted by Yuen Tai. To the extent that a comparison can be made (subject to similar nature, quality, quantity of purchase and conditions of the products and/or services), the Company and/or HK Kingworld shall use its best efforts to obtain price quotations from at least two independent third parties for comparison purposes (if applicable), to determine whether the prices and/or terms offered by Yuen Tai are fair and reasonable, and are similar to or more favourable than those offered by the independent third party(ies). The Group shall have the right to terminate or cancel the transactions if the terms and conditions are less favourable to the Group than those offered by other independent third parties suppliers.

40% of the purchase price shall be paid in advance by the Group within three days after the Group has placed an order for each batch of products and the remaining balance of the purchase price shall be paid upon delivery of the products and the passing of the product inspection.

7. Historical transaction amounts:

Set out below are the historical transaction amounts between the Group and Yuen Tai in respect of the purchase and distribution of Yuen Tai Products under the 2017 Yuen Tai Mater Distribution Agreement for the year ended 31 December 2017, under the 2018 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement for the year ended 31 December 2018 and under the 2019 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement for the ten months ended 31 October 2019, the annual caps under the 2017 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement for the year ended 31 December 2017, under the 2018 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement for the year ended 31 December 2018 and under the 2019 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement for the year ending 31 December 2019:

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The relatively low transaction amount for the year ended 31 December 2018 was mainly due to the delay in obtaining production certification by Yuen Tai for the supply of the Yuen Tai Products and that the one-off approval of the production certificate expired during the year ended 31 December 2018. There was no transaction under the 2019 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement for the ten months ended 31 October 2019 since the relevant production certificate was only obtained by the Group in November 2019.

8. Proposed annual caps:

Set out below are the proposed annual caps under the 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement for the three years ending 31 December 2022:

HK$13,781,000

(equivalent to approximately)

RMB4,242,000 RMB8,921,000 RMB12,334,000

In arriving at the above proposed annual caps, the Directors have taken into account the following factors:

  1. the historical figures of the actual transaction amounts of the transactions under the 2017 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement for the year ended 31 December 2017, under the 2018 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement for the year ended 31 December 2018 and under the 2019 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement for the ten months ended 31 October 2019. The Directors are of the view that there was no transaction under the 2019 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement for the ten months ended 31 October 2019 due to the delay in the process of renewing the production certificate by Yuen Tai for the supply of the Yuen Tai Products, which was an uncontrollable one-off incident. The related production certificate was obtained by the Group in early November 2019 and is valid till 29 November 2023. Since the production certificate has now been obtained and will be valid till 29 November 2023, the Directors do not foresee any further delay due to the delay in obtaining/renewing the production certification for the three years ending 31 December 2022; and
  2. the expected demand for different pharmaceutical and healthcare products from customers based on the three-year sales forecast received from the Group's main distributor.
    The proposed annual caps are calculated by multiplying the planned purchase amount by the estimated unit price of the products.

- 11 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

In considering the above factors, the Directors have taken into account the planned purchase amount for the Yuen Tai Products by the Group, the expected amount of purchase order from customers and the estimated average purchase price of the Yuen Tai Products.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The prices of the SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products to be purchased by the Group will be based on the prevailing market prices of similar products and the unit prices of the SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products as from time to time and will be no less favourable to the Group than those terms offered by other independent third parties suppliers.

(equivalent to approximately)

HK$24,884,000 HK$27,372,000 HK$30,110,000

In arriving at the above proposed annual caps, the Directors have taken into account the following factors:

  1. the historical figures of the actual transaction amounts of the transactions under the 2017 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement for the year ended 31 December 2017, under the 2018 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement for the year ended 31 December 2018 and under the 2019 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement for the ten months ended 31 October 2019; and
  2. the expected demand for different pharmaceutical and healthcare products from customers.
    The proposed annual caps are calculated by multiplying the planned purchase amount by the estimated unit price of the products. The transaction amounts for the ten months ended 31 October 2019 increased by approximately 20.93%, as compared to the transaction amounts for ten months ended 31 October 2018. The Directors estimate that the transaction amount under the 2020 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement will increase by approximately 10% per year in the coming three years.

In considering the above factors, the Directors have taken into account the planned purchase amount for the SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products by the Group, the expected expansion of its distributions scale, the expected increase in demand from customers and the estimated average purchase price of the SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  1. Reasons for and Benefits in Entering into the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements

The Group is principally engaged in the distribution of pharmaceutical and healthcare products in the PRC. The pharmaceutical and healthcare products distributed by the Group are supplied by various suppliers including Yuen Tai and SZ Kingworld Lifeshine. The Directors consider that a long term and steady relationship with these suppliers are of importance to the Group as it enables stability in the supply to the Group which in turn avoids any unnecessary disruption to the Group's business and guarantees a smooth operation of the Group. By entering into the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements, the Group can maintain long term relationships with Yuen Tai and SZ Kingworld Lifeshine.

Pursuant to the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements, the products to be purchased by the Group are on an exclusive basis and the prices of such products should be on normal commercial terms and no less favourable than those obtained from independent third parties. As such, the Group may gain competitive advantage in terms of costs. As the Group will act as the exclusive distributor for distribution of such products in the Greater China, the Group may avoid competition with other distributors with respect to the same products in the market.

In light of the above factors, the Directors (excluding Mr. Zhao and Ms. Chan, who have abstained from voting on the relevant board resolutions due to their interest in the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements and the independent non-executive Directors) consider that the terms under each of the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements and their respective proposed annual caps for the three years ending 31 December 2022 are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Shareholders as a whole. The opinion of the independent non-executive Directors will be formed after taking into account the advice to be provided by the Independent Financial Adviser, which will be set out in the circular to be despatched to the Shareholders on or before 31 December 2019.

  1. SZ Kingworld

SZ Kingworld is principally engaged in the distribution of imported branded pharmaceutical and healthcare products in the PRC. As at 30 November 2019, SZ Kingworld managed a portfolio of eleven categories, which include more than 60 products, including pharmaceutical products, healthcare products, general foodstuffs and medical products from suppliers or manufacturers from Japan, the United States, Canada, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Thailand and the PRC.

  1. Implications under the Listing Rules

Both Yuen Tai and SZ Kingworld Lifeshine are companies wholly-owned by Morning Gold, which is in turn 51% held by Mr. Zhao and 49% held by Ms. Chan, respectively. Both of Mr. Zhao and Ms. Chan are executive Directors and Controlling Shareholders of the Company. Therefore, each of Yuen Tai and SZ Kingworld Lifeshine is a connected person of the Company and the transactions under each of the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements constitute continuing connected transactions of the Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

Given that the transactions contemplated under the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements are to be made with Yuen Tai and SZ Kingworld Lifeshine, and these two companies are indirectly wholly-owned by Mr. Zhao and Ms. Chan, such transactions shall be aggregated in accordance with Rule 14A.81 of the Listing Rules.

Since one or more of the applicable percentage ratios in respect of the aggregate of the proposed annual caps for the transactions contemplated under the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements is/are expected to exceed 5%, the transactions thereunder are subject to the reporting announcement, annual review, circular and Independent Shareholders' approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

The Company confirms that the transactions contemplated under the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements are of a revenue nature in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Company and therefore are exempted from the requirements under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.

Accordingly, Mr. Zhao, Ms. Chan, Golden Land and Golden Morning and their respective associate(s) shall at the EGM abstain from voting in respect of the resolutions to approve the Proposed Transactions, which will be taken on a poll as required under the Listing Rules.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Mr. Zhao, Ms. Chan, Golden Land and Golden Morning and their respective associates controlled or were entitled to exercise control over the voting rights in respect of 405,660,250 shares in the Company, representing approximately 65.2% of the entire issued share capital of the Company.

Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement with SZ Kingworld Lifeshine for the purchase of the SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products for the three years ending 31 December 2022 and proposed to renew their respective annual caps for the three years ending 31 December 2022.

Based on the 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement and the 2020 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement, the Company proposed the annual caps in respect of the maximum annual payable by the Group to the relevant connected supplier under the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements for each of the three years ending 31 December 2022 and seek the Independent Shareholder's approval as required under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

Pursuant to the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements, the products to be purchased by the Group are on an exclusive basis and the prices of such products should be on normal commercial terms and no less favourable than those offered by the independent third parties which provide similar products in the market. As such, the Group may gain competitive advantage in terms of costs. As the Group will act as the exclusive distributor for distribution of such products in the Greater China, the Group may avoid competition with other distributors with respect to the same products in the market.

Having considered the above, and particularly, the entering into the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements will (i) maintain the Group's long term relationship with Yuen Tai and SZ Kingworld Lifeshine and enable the stability in the supply to the Group which in turn ensures a smooth operation of the Group's distribution business; (ii) widen the product coverage for exclusive distribution; and (iii) enhance the Group's competitiveness and advantages in costs, we are of the view that the entering into of the 2020 Master Distribution Agreement, together with the adoption of the annual caps, are conducted in the ordinary and usual course of the Group's business and are in the interests of both the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

  1. Principal terms of the 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement
    1. Date: 20 November 2019
      (as supplemented by the 2020 Yuen Tai Supplemental Agreement dated 24 December 2019)
    2. Parties: (a) HK Kingworld, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company; and (b) Yuen Tai.
    3. Description of the transactions: Pursuant to the 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement, HK Kingworld or the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company shall purchase the Yuen Tai Products, which mainly include Fengbao Jianfu Capsule and Pu Ji Kang Gan Granules, from Yuen Tai and act as the exclusive distributor for distribution of the Yuen Tai Products in the Greater China.
    4. Condition precedent: The 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement shall take effect subject to and conditional upon obtaining the Independent Shareholders' approval in respect of the 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement and the proposed annual caps for the transactions under the agreement.
    5. Term: The 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement is for a term of three years with effect from 16 January 2020 or the date on which the 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement and the proposed annual caps for the transactions under the agreement are approved by the Independent Shareholders (whichever is later) and ending on 31 December 2022 (both days inclusive).

6. Pricing Policy: The 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement was negotiated and entered into on an arm's length basis and on normal commercial terms. The terms and conditions (including but not limited to the prices) on which the Yuen Tai Products are to be purchased by the Group should be on normal commercial terms and, where there is comparable product available in the market, should be no less favourable than those obtained from independent third parties by the Group. The Group will satisfy the consideration of such purchases by its internal resources.

The prices of the Yuen Tai Products to be purchased by the Group will be based on the prevailing market prices of similar products and the unit prices of the Yuen Tai Products from time to time and will be no less favourable to the Group than those terms offered by other independent third parties suppliers, where there is comparable product available in the market.

The actual amounts, types, unit prices, delivery dates and methods of delivery of the Yuen Tai Products to the Group will be subject to individual orders placed by the Group and accepted by Yuen Tai. To the extent that a comparison can be made (subject to similar nature, quality, quantity of purchase and conditions of the products and/or services), the Company and/or HK Kingworld shall use its best efforts to obtain price offered from at least two independent third parties for comparison purposes (if applicable), to determine whether the prices and/or terms offered by Yuen Tai are fair and reasonable, and are similar to or more favourable than those offered by the independent third party(ies). The Group shall have the right to terminate or cancel the transactions if the terms and conditions are less favourable to the Group than those offered by other independent third parties suppliers. 40% of the purchase price shall be paid in advance by the Group within three days after the Group has placed an order for each batch of products and the remaining balance of the purchase price shall be paid upon delivery of the products and the passing of the product inspection.

Regarding the pricing policy of purchase the Yuen Tai Products from Yuen Tai, we have also reviewed the lists of transactions under the 2017 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement and 2018 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement covering the period from 1 January 2017 to 28 May 2018 and 6 selected samples of purchase invoices and their relevant contracts for the purchase of the Yuen Tai Products which represents all the transactions occurred in the period mentioned above. As confirmed with the management of the Group that the Yuen Tai Products are exclusive products and there is no product with the same formula sold in the market for the company to compare the price. Given the uniqueness of the product we have obtained and reviewed both the ingredients information of Fengbao Jianfu Capsule and Pu Ji Kang Gan Granule which described the function of products and ingredients for our reference, we understand there is no applicable comparison of the price offered by the independent third party(ies). Also, there is no example of the Yuen Tai Products that the Company could obtain independent samples of price comparison due to their uniqueness up to the Latest Practicable Date. According to the profit calculation standard issued by the department of finance dated 31 December 2018, the price would be accepted with reference to a minimum profit margin of approximately 25% on average to ensure no loss making for purchasing the Yuen Tai Products. We have noted that the profit margin of the Company's product from Yuen Tai is not lower than the required minimum margin and is no less favourable than the pharmaceutical products

supplied by other independent suppliers. In addition, as set out above, the Group shall have the right to terminate or cancel the transactions if the terms and conditions are less favourable to the Group than those offered by other independent suppliers and the Group is not obliged to purchase products from Yuen Tai if other independent suppliers are able to offer products to the Group at more favourable terms and as such, we are of the view that such arrangement is fair and reasonable and is in the interests of the Company and Shareholders as a whole.

We have also obtained samples of purchase invoices issued by Yuen Tai to the Group in relation to the transactions under the 2017 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement and the corresponding purchase information including but not limited to the relevant contracts and proof of payments on similar products with Yuen Tai. We have noticed the selling price of the products to the Company's distributors are higher than the purchase price and in favour of the Company.

As advised by the Directors, since the Group is the sole distributor of the Yuen Tai Products, Yuen Tai only manufacturers and sells its pharmaceutical and healthcare products to the Group. Therefore, the deposit of the purchase price is necessary for Yuen Tai to procure new materials and for the payment of expenses in relation to the manufacturing of the pharmaceutical and healthcare products. As disclosed in the payment terms under the 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement, 40% of the purchase price shall be paid in advance by the Group within three days after the Group has placed an order for each batch of products and the remaining balance of the purchase price shall be paid upon delivery of the products and the passing of the product inspection. Also, we have reviewed the purchase contracts in relation to pharmaceutical and healthcare products from other independent suppliers and noted that it is a common practice for suppliers to require payment of deposits upon ordering from the Group for the last three years. From the samples we have obtained from the Company, we found that approximately three quarters of the independent suppliers require the purchasers to pay fully before they deliver the products and the remaining independent suppliers require 50% of the purchase price to pay in advance within three days after the purchasers has placed an order. Also, the purchasers could report to the independent suppliers regarding the product inspection within three to ten days after the delivery of products and the products would be considered as being satisfied and accepted by the purchasers if there are no comments from the Group after the period. In light of the above, we are of the view that the payment terms offered by Yuen Tai to the Company are no less favourable than terms offered by independent supplier regardless their required prepayments and the credit period. Therefore, we consider the payment term of the 2020 Yuen Tai Master distribution Agreement is reasonable.

In the light of the above and in particular that: (i) the pricing policy of the Group is similar to those of other listed companies; (ii) the unit prices offered by Yuen Tai would not be higher than the selling price to ensure there is a profit for the Company; (iii) the Group has the right to terminate or cancel the transactions if the terms and conditions are less favourable to the Group than those offered by other independent suppliers; and (iv) the payment term of the Group has no significant inconsistency with the market practice, we are of the view that the terms of the 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement are on normal commercial terms and are fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned and are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

LETTER FROM VINCO CAPITAL

We noted that HK Kingworld has not purchased any pharmaceutical and healthcare products from Yuen Tai since 28 May 2018 and up to the Latest Practicable Date. Therefore, there is no historical amount of purchase of Yuen Tai Products in 2019. As disclosed in the letter from the board, HK Kingworld did not purchase any Yuen Tai Products during such period due to the delay in obtaining production certification (which was expired since 29 October 2015) by Yuen Tai for the supply of the Yuen Tai Products, Fengbao Jianfu Capsule, which was an uncontrollable one-off incident. According to the confirmation from the Company, the related production certification was obtained from the Import Drugs Approval Notice from the State Food and Drug Administration of the PRC* (國家食品藥品監督管理局) ("SFDA") in early November 2019, with an effective period till to 29 November 2023. Also, based on our discussion with the management, the Company has obtained a one-off permit from SFDA that an exemption of importing Fengbao Jianfu Capsule had granted to the Company and allowed the Company to purchase and import a limited amount of the product in 2017. We also noticed that the transaction amount for the year ended 31 December 2018 was relatively low due to the delay in obtaining production certification by Yuen Tai for the supply of the Yuen Tai Products as explained above. However, as discussed with the Company, we understand the small amount of Yuen Tai Products were purchased as sample and do not require the certificate or approval from SFDA but a certificate of registration of proprietary Chinese medicine issued by the Chinese Medicines Board in Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.

In our assessment of the reasonableness of the proposed annual caps under the 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement, we have reviewed the estimation of the Group on the total purchases of the Yuen Tai Products from Yuen Tai for the three financial years ending 31 December 2022 and the underlying bases and assumptions respectively. As stated in the Letter from the Board, the Directors have taken into account the following factors in arriving at the proposed annual caps under the 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement:

  1. the historical figures of the actual transaction amounts of the transactions under the 2017 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement for the year ended 31 December 2017, the 2018 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement for the year ended 31 December 2018 and the 2019 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement for the ten months ended 31 October 2019; and
  2. the expected demand for different pharmaceutical and healthcare products from customers based on the three-year sales forecast received from the Group's main distributor. The proposed annual caps are calculated by multiplying the planned purchase amount by the estimated unit price of the products.

- 33 -

LETTER FROM VINCO CAPITAL

We have discussed with the Company regarding the above factors, and we concur with the Company's view that it is reasonable and in the interests of both the Company and the Shareholders to set the Yuen Tai annual caps at the proposed levels, after taking into consideration the following:

    1. the purchase forecast of Yuen Tai Products for the three years ending 31 December 2022 proposed by the management of the Group. The planned purchase amount for the Yuen Tai Products is approximately 0.3 million boxes, 0.4 million boxes and 0.5 million boxes for the coming three years respectively;
    2. the purchase order issued by an independent third party to the Company and we noted that the demand is approximately 90% of the expected total quantity to be purchased from Yuen Tai in the three years ending 31 December 2022 accordingly;
    3. the estimated volume of the Yuen Tai Products is expected to be increased by 10% annually during the three years ending 31 December 2022 taking into account of the purchase order made by the independent third party as discussed in point (ii); and
    4. the estimated average purchase price of the Yuen Tai Products would not be higher than the sales price for the Company to contribute to its customers and the expected profit.
  1. Conclusion

Based on the factors and reason discussed above, we are of the view that the proposed annual caps for the 2020 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement were set by the Company after due and careful consideration and are reasonable so far as the Shareholders are concerned and in the interests of both the Company and the Shareholders as whole.

under the Kingworld American Ginseng series, from SZ Kingworld Lifeshine and act as the exclusive distributor for distribution of the SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products in the Greater China.

  1. Condition precedent: The 2020 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement shall take effect subject to and conditional upon obtaining the Independent Shareholders' approval in respect of the 2020 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement and the proposed annual caps for the transactions under the agreement.
  2. Term: The 2020 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement is for a term of three years with effect from 16 January 2020 or the date on which the 2020 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement (whichever is later) and the proposed annual caps for the transactions under the agreement are approved by the Independent Shareholders and ending on 31 December 2022 (both days inclusive).
  3. Pricing Policy: The 2020 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement was negotiated and entered into on an arm's length basis and on normal commercial terms. The terms and conditions (including but not limited to the prices) on which the SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products are to be purchased by the Group should be on normal commercial terms and no less favourable than those obtained from independent third parties by the Group. The Group will satisfy the consideration of such purchases by its internal resources.

The prices of the SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products to be purchased by the Group will be based on the prevailing market prices of similar products and the unit prices of the SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products from time to time and will be no less favourable to the Group than those terms offered by other independent third parties suppliers.

The actual amounts, types, unit prices, delivery dates and methods of delivery of the SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products to the Group will be subject to individual orders placed by the Group and accepted by SZ Kingworld Lifeshine. To the extent that a comparison can be made (subject to similar nature, quality, quantity of purchase and conditions of the products and/or services), the Company and/or SZ Kingworld shall use its best efforts to obtain price quotations from at least two independent third parties for comparison purposes (if applicable), to determine whether the prices and/or terms offered by SZ Kingworld Lifeshine are fair and reasonable, and are similar to or more favourable than those offered by the independent third party(ies). The Group shall have the right to terminate or cancel the transactions if the terms and conditions are less favourable to the Group than those offered by other independent third parties suppliers. 40% of the purchase price shall be paid in advance by the Group within three days after the Group has placed an order for each batch of products and the remaining balance of the purchase price shall be paid upon delivery of the products and the passing of the product inspection.

Regarding the pricing policy of purchase the SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products from SZ Kingworld Lifeshine, we have reviewed other continuing connected transactions in relation to purchases made by the listed companies from their connected persons and noted that their

- 35 -

LETTER FROM VINCO CAPITAL

pricing policies are similar to the above one under the 2020 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement, it is not uncommon that listed companies on the Stock Exchange will obtain quotations from at least two independent suppliers to assess whether the purchase of the similar products from the connected person is on normal commercial terms. Also as discussed below, the Group has adopted the above pricing policy in the past and we have also reviewed the lists of transactions under the 2017 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement, 2018 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement and 2019 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement covering period from 1 January 2017 to 31 October 2019 and selected ten samples of purchase invoice and their relevant contracts for the purchase of the SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products randomly from the lists of transactions. The samples represented not less than 5% of the total number of transactions contemplated under the 2017 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement, 2018 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement and 2019 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement respectively. Since only Imada Red Flower Oil were purchased for the period of 1 January 2017 to 31 October 2019, we believe the selected samples are exhaustive and do not have significant differences of the remaining transactions and the number of selected samples is also sufficient to represent the pricing policy which the Group has adopted in the period from 1 January 2017 to 31 October 2019. As confirmed with the management of the Group that the Company would conduct a search on the market price of similar products sold by other independent third parties and consider these references in relation to the unit price for similar products in the market and noted that the price of the SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products offered by SZ Kingworld Lifeshine was no less favourable than those offered by other independent suppliers. In addition, as set out above, the Group shall have the right to terminate or cancel the transactions if the terms and conditions are less favourable to the Group than those offered by other independent suppliers and the Group is not obliged to purchase products from SZ Kingworld Lifeshine if other independent suppliers are able to offer products to the Group at more favourable terms and as such, we are of the view that such arrangement is fair and reasonable and is in the interests of the Company and Shareholders as a whole.

As mentioned above, we have obtained ten samples of purchase invoices issued by SZ Kingworld Lifeshine to the Group in relation to the transactions under the 2017 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement, 2018 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement, 2019 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement and also the corresponding purchase information on similar products with SZ Kingworld Lifeshine and other independent suppliers. We have compared the unit prices and terms of the purchase from the Group to those of independent third parties and have found them to be no less favourable than, those offered by independent third parties. Up to the Latest Practicable Date, there are no products under the 2020 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement having difficulty to obtain price quotations from at least two independent third parties for comparison purposes to determine whether the prices and/or the terms offered by SZ Kingworld Lifeshine are fair and reasonable, and are similar to or more favourable than those offered by the independent third party(ies). If the price comparison is not applicable, the price offered by SZ Kingworld Lifeshine would be accepted by the Group with reference to a minimum profit margin of approximately 25% on average to ensure no loss making for purchasing the SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products. We have noted that the profit margin of the Company's product from SZ Kingworld Lifeshine is no less favourable than the pharmaceutical products supplied by other independent suppliers.

In our assessment of the reasonableness of the proposed annual caps under the 2020 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement, we have reviewed the estimation of the Group on the total purchases of the SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products from SZ Kingworld Lifeshine for the three years ending 31 December 2022 and the underlying bases and assumptions respectively. As stated in the Letter from the Board, the Directors have taken into account the following factors in arriving at the proposed annual caps under the 2020 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement:

  1. the historical figures of the actual transaction amounts of the transactions under the 2017 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement for the year ended 31 December 2017, the 2018 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement for the year ended 31 December 2018 and the 2019 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement for the ten months ended 31 October 2019; and
  2. the expected demand for different pharmaceutical and healthcare products from customers. The proposed annual caps are calculated by multiplying the planned purchase amount by the estimated unit price of the product.

We have discussed with the Company regarding the above factors, and we concur with the Company's view that it is reasonable and in the interests of both the Company and the Shareholders to set the SZ Kingworld Lifeshine annual caps at the proposed levels, after taking into consideration the following:

  1. the purchase of SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products forecast for the three years ending 31 December 2022 proposed by the management of the Group. The planned purchase amount for SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products is approximately 4.0 million bottles, 4.4 million bottles and 4.9 million bottles for the coming three years, represents an increase of 10% each year;

- 39 -

LETTER FROM VINCO CAPITAL

  1. the expected expansion of its distribution scale resulting in a possible increase in the value of transactions to be entered into between the Group and SZ Kingworld Lifeshine. As confirmed by the management of the Company, the retail outlets of the Group will be increased from approximately 51,000 branches as at the end of November 2019 to approximately 79,000 branches at the end of December 2020. The Company believes the above business strategies will be continued in the forthcoming year. The increasing rate of purchasing amount at each branch varies and the increasing number of retail outlets is only one of the factors which contributes to the amount of products to be purchased. As confirmed with the management of the Company, each branch may require different quantity of products to be stored according to below considerations including but not limited to its location, the target customers around its location, the trend of the products around the area where the outlet is located, the turnover and the size of the outlet. Therefore, the increasing rate of purchasing amount and the increasing rate of branches to be opened are not strongly correlated but still positively related.;
  2. Based on the increasing number of retail outlet to be opened in the coming three years as discussed in point (ii), the sales of SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products is expected to be increased by approximately 60% from the eleven months ended 30 November 2019 to the year ending 31 December 2020. The Company believes the number of purchases would be demanded accordingly and therefore forecasts an increase in purchase from SZ Kingworld Lifeshine of approximately 60% to meet the market demand;
  3. the expected growth of the demand for different pharmaceutical and healthcare products from customers due to the restructuring of the management of SZ Kingworld and the expansion of the Group's distribution network as discussed in point (i). The new operational strategies initiated by the new management encourage the sales to be grown, such as customer reward scheme, advertisement in different regions, staff training for sales and so forth, which would stimulate the demand of products accordingly;
  4. the estimated volume of the SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products is expected to be increased by 10% annually during the three years ending 31 December 2022 taking into account of the proposed sales planned by the management of the Company which was based on the increasing trend of sales of Imada Red Flower Oil in 2019. We noted that the increase of sales is approximately 39% from the period of January to May 2019 to the period of June to October 2019. Furthermore, the sales transaction amounts for the ten months ended 31 October 2019 increased by approximately 20.93% as compared to the transaction amounts for ten months ended 31 October 2018; and
  5. the estimated average purchase price of the SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products is expected according to the quotation provided by SZ Kingworld Lifeshine.

LETTER FROM VINCO CAPITAL

  1. Conclusion

Based on the factors and reason discussed above, we are of the view that the proposed annual caps of the 2020 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement were set by the Company after due and careful consideration and are reasonable so far as the Shareholders are concerned and in the interests of both the Company and the Shareholders as whole.

INTERNAL CONTROL MEASURES GOVERNING THE 2020 MASTER

DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENTS

As confirm by the Director, the Company will adopted the following internal control procedures to govern the continuing connected transactions of the Company under the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements:

  1. The internal control department of the Group (the "Internal Control Department") will manage and monitor the transactions to be entered under the 2020 Distribution Agreements. The Internal Control Department will conduct review on the prices of products of similar specification and quality in the market on an annual basis and ensure that the purchase prices of the Yuen Tai Products and SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Products are fair and reasonable and where there is no comparable product available in the market, the purchase price should be determined by arm's length basis and on normal commercial terms. We have assessed the internal control policy for continuing connected transactions of the Group and we are of the view that such internal control procedure abided by the internal control framework can effectively assure that the existing and possible future agreements entered and to be entered with any connected parties are and will be on normal commercial terms and not prejudicial to the interests of the Company and its minority Shareholders. According to the profit calculation standard issued by the department of finance dated 31 December 2018, the purchase price offered by Yuen Tai and SZ Kingworld Lifeshine would be accepted with reference to a minimum profit margin of approximately 25% on average to ensure no loss making for purchasing the products from the connected suppliers. We also noted that the profit margin of the Yuen Tai Products is not lower than the required minimum margin and is no less favourable than the pharmaceutical products supplied by other independent suppliers. As such, we are of the view that the internal control measures are sufficient for both products without price comparison in the market and products which can be compared with independent third party(ies).

LETTER FROM VINCO CAPITAL

  1. As confirmed by the management of the Company, the Internal Control Department will closely monitor and record the transaction amount of each order under the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements, conduct price comparison on an annual basis, submit the procurement plans and status reports to the executive Directors and the company secretary of the Company on a monthly basis, and report to the audit committee of the Board on a semi-annual basis. We believe this control procedures could ensure that the proposed annual caps will not be exceeded and the continuing connected transactions are conducted in accordance with the pricing policies under the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements.
  2. The management of the Company will discuss with the independent non-executive Directors if there is any potential compliance issue during the term of the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements and where necessary, seek advice from professional parties such as legal advisers and/or auditor.
  3. The independent non-executive Directors will perform annual review pursuant to Rule 14A.55 of the Listing Rules on whether the transactions under the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements are conducted (a) in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group; (b) on normal commercial terms or better; and (c) according to the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements governing them on terms that are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Shareholders as a whole.
  4. The Company's auditor will review the continuing connected transactions (which are subject to the annual review and disclosure requirements under the Listing Rules) annually and confirm pursuant to Rule 14A.56 of the Listing Rules on, among others, whether (a) the transactions under the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements have been approved by the Board; (b) the transactions were entered into, in all material respects, in accordance with the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements governing the transactions; and (c) the relevant proposed annual caps have not been exceeded. We have reviewed the independent auditor's assurance report on continuing connected transactions dated 27 March 2019 in relation to the 2018 SZ Kingworld Lifeshine Master Distribution Agreement and 2018 Yuen Tai Master Distribution Agreement. As such we are of the view that the Company's auditor will review as the previous year for the transactions under the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements to confirm whether the transactions thereunder not to exceed the annual cap on a yearly basis.

RECOMMENDATION

Having taken the above principal factors and reasons, we considered that (i) the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements are in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group;

  1. the terms of the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements are fair and reasonable, and that it is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole to enter into the Proposed Transactions with Yuen Tai and SZ Kingworld Lifeshine respectively; and (iii) the proposed annual caps for the three years ending 31 December 2022 for each of the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

- 42 -

LETTER FROM VINCO CAPITAL

Accordingly, we advise the Independent Board Committee to recommend, the Independent Shareholders, to vote in favour of the ordinary resolutions to be proposed at the EGM approving the 2020 Master Distribution Agreements and their respective proposed annual caps for the three years ending 31 December 2022.

Yours faithfully,
