Great Bay Securities Limited has been appointed by the directors of the Fund as the investment manager of Tisé Equity SP-1 (the ''Investment Manager'') subject to the terms of an investment

management agreement. The Investment Manager is licensed to conduct type 1 (dealing in securities), type 4 (advising on securities) and type 9 (asset management) regulated activities under the Securities and Futures Ordinance. Based on information available, the Investment Manager is beneficially owned as to 67% by Mr. Suen Cho Hung Paul and 33% by Mr. Liu Zhiyi. The management shares, which represent all of the voting shares in the Fund, are held by Tisé Capital Management Limited and the ultimate beneficial owner of Tisé Capital Management Limited is Mr. Zhang Yutao Bryant. There are 10 individual or corporate investors holding the non-voting participating redeemable shares in Tisé Equity SP-1 and, based on publicly available information, a wholly-owned subsidiary of CST Group Limited (stock code: 985) is one of the investors.

To the best of the knowledge, information and belief of the ALS Board and HTICI Board, each of Tisé Equity SP-1, the Investment Manager, Tisé Capital Management Limited and their respective ultimate beneficial owners is an Independent Third Party of ALS and HTICI and their respective connected persons (as defined in the Listing Rules).

The investment strategy of Tisé Equity SP-1 is principally to invest in the shares of NGG, a pre-IPO company that provides an online platform for apartment and automobile sales/ rentals with its main operations in the PRC. At the date of the Agreement, the investment size of Tisé Equity SP-1 is US$150 million comprising the investment in the NGG and Tisé Equity SP-1 has not yet raised fund from investors to make further investment. However, Tisé Equity SP-1 may hold other assets, including and not limited to cash or cash equivalent instruments should the directors of the Fund deem such strategy to be prudent over any time period.

The Agreement sets out the regulations relating to the governance and operation of the Target Company after the Completion. The Purchaser and the Vendor as the shareholders shall have customary rights in respect of reserved matters. It is also agreed between the parties that the Purchaser can make a request to the Target Company, then the Target Company will (and the Vendor will procure the Target Company to) send a redemption notice to the Fund to redeem a pro-rata portion of the participating shares held by the Purchaser in the Target Company, subject to the redemption procedure set out in the offering documents of the Fund. The Agreement provides for enforceable contractual rights and any right or remedy conferred by the Agreement for breach of this Agreement (including without limitation the breach of any representative and warranties) shall be in addition and without prejudice to all other rights and remedies available to it in respect of that breach under the common laws or equity.

Each of the ALS Board and HTICI Board considers that the investment will be treated as a financial asset at fair value through profit or loss, as the ALS Group and HTICI Group neither obtain control nor exercise significant influence over the Target Company. Auditor of ALS and HTICI has assessed and concurred with this conclusion based on the facts and circumstances currently available.

Taking into account of the reasons and benefits as set out in the Joint Announcement dated 26 April 2021, the investment strategy of Tisé Equity SP-1 in relation to NGG and the redemption procedure and restrictions as set out in the offering documents of the Fund and the rights available under the Agreement, and that the opportunity to invest in NGG is only available in the form of investment through the Target Company, each of the ALS Board and HTICI Board considers that the terms and conditions of the Agreement are on normal commercial terms and are fair and reasonable and that the Acquisition is in the interests of ALS and HTICI and their respective shareholders as a whole.
