Financial Adviser to the Company

This announcement is made by Bolina Holding Co., Ltd. (In Liquidation) (the "Company") pursuant to Rules 13.09(2)(a) and 13.24A of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities (the "Listing Rules") on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Stock Exchange").

UPDATE ON RESUMPTION PLAN

The Company is continuing its efforts in fulfilling the Resumption Guidance including but limited to implement the transactions contemplated under the Restructuring Agreement.

In regard to the outstanding financial results of the Company for the two financial years ended 31 December 2018 and 2019, the Company's auditor, Crowe (HK) CPA Limited ("Crowe (HK)") has indicated to the Company that, based on the existing audit evidences obtained, Crowe (HK) would likely issue a disclaimer of opinion on the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the years ended 31 December 2018 and 2019 (the "Disclaimer of Opinions"), which was mainly due to, amongst others,

  1. scope limitations on several areas (such as comparative financial information); and (ii) the uncertainties surrounding the going concern assumption.

After discussions with Crowe (HK) in regard to the Disclaimer of Opinions, as part of its efforts to address audit qualification (which is also one of the Resumption Guidance), the Company is taking steps, amongst other things (i) to engage an independent professional party to conduct a review of the internal control system of the Company and its key operating subsidiaries in order to identify any material internal control weaknesses that might prevail and to ensure the Group to have an adequate and effective financial reporting and internal control system to enable the Group to meet its obligations under the Listing Rules; and (ii) to reconstitute the board of directors and/ or senior management of its key operating subsidiaries if appropriate.

In view of the above, the Company will agree a timetable with Crowe (HK) in relation to the publication of the annual results of the Company for the years ended 31 December 2018 and 2019 and the despatch of the corresponding annual reports and will make further announcement as and when appropriate.

REVIEW OF THE DELISTING DECISION
