Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this announcement shall have the same meanings as those defined in the prospectus dated September 26, 2019 (the "Prospectus" ) of Topsports International Holdings Limited (the "Company" ).

Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited, The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Stock Exchange" ) and Hong Kong Securities Clearing Company Limited ( "HKSCC" ) take no responsibility for the contents of this announcement, make no representation as to its accuracy or completeness and expressly disclaim any liability whatsoever for any loss howsoever arising from or in reliance upon the whole or any part of the contents of this announcement.

This announcement is for information purposes only and does not constitute an offer or an invitation to induce an offer by any person to acquire, purchase or subscribe for any securities. Potential investors should read the Prospectus for detailed information about the Global Offering described below before deciding whether or not to invest in the Offer Shares.

This announcement is not for release, publication, distribution, directly or indirectly, in or into the United States or any other jurisdiction where such distribution is prohibited by law. This announcement does not constitute and is not an offer to sell or a solicitation of any offer to buy securities in Hong Kong, the United States or elsewhere. The securities referred to in this announcement have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 (the "U.S. Securities Act" ) or any state securities laws of the United States and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration under the U.S. Securities Act or except pursuant to an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act. There will be no public offering of securities of the Company in the United States.

In connection with the Global Offering, Merrill Lynch (Asia Pacific) Limited through its affiliates as the Stabilizing manager (the "Stabilizing Manager" ) or any person acting for it, on behalf of the Underwriters, may over-allocate or effect transactions with a view to stabilizing or supporting the market price of the Shares at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail for a limited period after the Listing Date. However, there is no obligation on the Stabilizing Manager (or any person acting for it) to conduct any such stabilizing action. Such stabilizing action, if taken, (a) will be conducted at the absolute discretion of the Stabilizing Manager (or any person acting for it) and in what the Stabilizing Manager reasonably regards as the best interest of the Company, (b) may be discontinued at any time and (c) is required to be brought to an end within 30 days of the last day for lodging applications under the Hong Kong Public Offering. Such stabilizing action, if taken, may be effected in all jurisdictions where it is permissible to do so, in each case in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulatory requirements, including the Securities and Futures (Price Stabilizing) Rules, as amended, made under the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Cap. 571 of the Laws of Hong Kong).

Potential investors should be aware that stabilizing action cannot be taken to support the price of the Shares for longer than the stabilization period which begins on the Listing Date and is expected to expire on the 30th day after the last day for the lodging of the applications under the Hong Kong Public Offering (i.e. November 1, 2019). After this date, when no further stabilizing action may be taken, demand for the Shares, and therefore the price of the Shares, could fall.

The allocation of the Offer Shares between the Hong Kong Public Offering and the International Offering will be subject to reallocation as described in the section headed "Structure of the Global Offering" in the Prospectus.

Further details on the circumstances under which the above guidance letter would apply are set out in the section titled "Structure of the Global Offering" in the Prospectus. In connection with the Global Offering, the Selling Shareholder is expected to grant the Over-allotment Option to the International Underwriters, which is exercisable by the Joint Global Coordinators (on behalf of the International Underwriters) from the Listing Date until 30 days after the last day for the lodging of applications under the Hong Kong Public Offering, to require the Selling Shareholder to sell up to an aggregate of 139,527,000 additional Shares, representing not more than 15% of the total number of Offer Shares initially available under the Global Offering to cover over-allocations in the International Offering, if any.

Subject to the granting of the approval for listing of, and permission to deal in, the Shares on the Stock Exchange and compliance with the stock admission requirements of HKSCC, the Shares will be accepted as eligible securities by HKSCC for deposit, clearance and settlement in CCASS with effect from the date of commencement of dealings in the Shares on the Stock Exchange or any other date as determined by HKSCC.
