LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Mr. Zhu Yongjun is the chairman of the Board, an executive Director, a substantial Shareholder and therefore a connected person of the Company. He and the Company entered into the Disposal Agreement as Vendor's guarantors to guarantee the performance by the Vendor of its obligation to repay the double amount of the Deposits (as defined below) to the Purchaser in the circumstances as set out in the sub-sections headed ''Conditions precedent'' and ''Vendor's undertakings'' below. Such guarantee is provided on normal commercial terms or better and it is not required to be secured by the assets of the Group.

On the other hand, the payment obligations of the Purchaser is guaranteed by BELG under the Disposal Agreement.

Subject matter

Pursuant to the Disposal Agreement, the Vendor has conditionally agreed to sell and the Purchaser has conditionally agreed to purchase the 100% equity interest in the Disposal Company at the Consideration of RMB120,000,000 (equivalent to approximately HK$145.5 million).

Consideration and payment

The Consideration was determined based on arm's length negotiations between the Vendor and the Purchaser after taking into consideration of the unaudited net asset value of the Disposal Company as at 31 December 2020. To ensure the fairness and reasonableness of the Consideration, the Company had further assessed the equity value of the Disposal Company independently by engaging a professional independent consultant and valuer to prepare a valuation of the equity value of the Disposal Company as at 31 December 2020, the text of which is set out in Appendix V to this circular. Based on the said valuation which has adopted the asset-based approach, the appraised equity value of 100% equity interest in the Disposal Company as at 31 December 2020 was approximately RMB115,104,000.

The parties to the Disposal Agreement also agreed that if the relevant government authority of Taiyuan raises the unit price of kitchen waste treatment within twelve (12) months from the date of the Disposal Agreement, for every RMB1 per ton raised beyond the existing price of RMB309.17 per ton, the Consideration shall be increased by RMB700,000 (the ''Additional Consideration''), and vice versa. The Purchaser shall pay the Additional Consideration (if applicable) to the Vendor together with the last instalment Consideration payment (for details, please refer to the paragraph below); while the Purchaser shall have the right to deduct the reduced amount (if applicable) from the unpaid portion of the Consideration.

The Consideration shall be satisfied by the Purchaser in cash in the following manner:

  1. within three (3) Business Days from the date of signing the Disposal Agreement, the Purchaser shall pay 17% of the Consideration, i.e. RMB20,400,000 (equivalent to approximately HK$24.7 million), to the bank account designated by the Vendor as refundable deposits (the ''Deposits'');

- 7 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  1. within three (3) Business Days from the date on which all the conditions precedent to the Disposal Agreement are satisfied, the Purchaser and the party designated by the Vendor shall open a jointly controlled bank account (the ''Joint Account'') and within three (3) Business Days after the Joint Account is opened, the Purchaser shall pay 68% of the Consideration, i.e. RMB81,600,000 (equivalent to approximately HK$98.9 million) (the ''2nd Instalment Consideration''), to the Joint Account;
  2. within ten (10) days from the Completion Date, the amount in the Joint Account can be released and transferred to the bank account designated by the Vendor; and
  3. within twelve (12) months from the Completion Date (the ''Stipulated Period'') and subject to the condition that the Disposal Company has not encountered any loss in asset value of over RMB3 million due to reason(s) caused by the Vendor (the ''Material Loss'') (such as the loss attributable to factors that are not identified by the Purchaser and/or its auditor during the audit process and are not presented to the Purchaser, if any), the Purchaser shall, within five (5) Business Days thereafter, pay the remaining 15% of the Consideration, i.e. RMB18,000,000 (equivalent to approximately HK$21.8 million) to the bank account designated by the Vendor. The Purchaser shall also pay the Additional Consideration to the Vendor together with such last instalment Consideration payment (if applicable).
    Should the Disposal Company encounter any Material Loss within the Stipulated Period, the Purchaser shall have the right to deduct the exact amount of the Material Loss from the last instalment Consideration payment. If the amount of the last instalment Consideration payment is insufficient to settle the Material Loss, the Vendor shall pay the shortfall thereof to the Purchaser in cash.
    As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Vendor had already received the Deposits from the Purchaser, and neither the Purchaser nor the Vendor was aware of the possible nature and/or had identified any items to be potentially classified as Material Loss. The Purchaser shall inform the Vendor when an event probable of causing the Material Loss takes place, and the assessment on the total amount of the Material Loss shall be conducted in one go at the end of the Stipulated Period by a third party competent institution jointly engaged by the Purchaser and the Vendor, based on an assessment method in compliance with the applicable professional standard.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Conditions precedent

The equity transfer and the effectiveness of the Disposal Agreement (save for the provisions on matters related to the Deposits) shall be subject to fulfilment of the following conditions precedent:

  1. the transactions contemplated under the Disposal Agreement having been approved in writing by the Taiyuan Urban and Rural Management Bureau* (
    原市城鄉管理局);
  2. the written consent for the Disposal as well as its agreement to assist in the change of business registration of the Disposal Company from CITIC Financial Leasing Company Limited* (中信金融租賃有限公司) (being a major creditor of the Disposal Company) having been obtained;
  3. the third party competent institution engaged by the Purchaser having issued the audited report of the Disposal Company; and
  4. the approval of the transactions contemplated under the Disposal Agreement by the Shareholders and all relevant authorities (including the Stock Exchange) having been obtained.

None of the conditions precedent above can be waived. As at the Latest Practicable Date, none of the conditions precedent above had been satisfied.

Upon fulfilment of all of the conditions precedent and the Purchaser having paid the 2nd Instalment Consideration to the Joint Account in the manner as prescribed above, the parties shall proceed with the equity transfer and change of business registration of the Disposal Company within fifteen (15) Business Days.

If within one hundred and twenty (120) days after signing of the Disposal Agreement (or such later date as may be agreed by the parties thereto in writing), the conditions precedent to the Disposal Agreement have not yet been fulfilled due to the breach of the Disposal Agreement and reason(s) caused by the Vendor (for the avoidance of doubt, except for the non-fulfilment of condition (iv) as stated above), the Vendor shall return double amount of the Deposits to the Purchaser within ten (10) days after such non-fulfilment. In the event that the non-fulfilment is due to the breach of the Disposal Agreement and reason(s) caused by the Purchaser, the Vendor can confiscate the Deposits within ten (10) days after such non-fulfilment. In the event that the non-fulfilment is due to the breach of the Disposal Agreement or reason(s) caused by neither parties, the Vendor shall return the Deposits (without interest) to the Purchaser within ten (10) days after such non-fulfilment. In all non-fulfilment events, the Disposal Agreement shall be terminated and upon termination, the Disposal Agreement shall be of no further effect thereafter and all the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties under the Disposal Agreement will cease and determine (save for any antecedent rights and obligations of the parties already accrued before the termination).

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Completion

Completion of the Disposal takes place upon the entire equity interest of the Disposal Company having been transferred and registered in the name of the Purchaser and the Purchaser becoming the registered shareholder of the Disposal Company.

Vendor's undertakings

In the event that the total net asset value of the Disposal Company as at 31 December

2020 as audited by a third party competent institution engaged by the Purchaser is:

  1. within 10% to 15% less than the net asset value of the Disposal Company as at 31 December 2020 as agreed by both parties without taking into account any possible impairment (i.e. RMB76,900,000, being the total net tangible asset value of the Disposal Company based on its unaudited management accounts), the Purchaser has the right to deduct such difference from the unpaid portion of the Consideration; or
  2. less than the net asset value of the Disposal Company as at 31 December 2020 as agreed by both parties without taking into account any possible impairment (i.e. RMB76,900,000) for 15% or above, the Purchaser may terminate the Disposal Agreement and the Vendor shall return double amount of the Deposits to the Purchaser.

In addition, the Vendor also undertook that:

  1. if the Disposal Company suffers a net loss of more than RMB500,000 as assessed by a third party competent institution jointly engaged by the Purchaser and the Vendor in any month during the transition period from 1 January 2021 to the Completion Date, it shall reimburse such extra loss amount to the Disposal Company, otherwise the Purchaser may deduct such amount from the unpaid portion of the Consideration; and
  2. if the Disposal Company is unable to recover any of its accounts receivable recorded as at 31 December 2020 within the Stipulated Period, it shall reimburse the entire unrecovered amount to the Disposal Company, otherwise the Purchaser may deduct the entire unrecovered amount from the unpaid portion of the Consideration. However, should the Disposal Company be able to receive those unrecovered accounts receivable subsequent to the reimbursement by the Vendor, the Purchaser shall return the equivalent reimbursement to the Vendor.

PROVISION OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE

The Group has been providing several loans to the Disposal Company to fulfil its working capital requirement. As at 31 December 2020, the outstanding amount of such loans amounted to approximately RMB31,636,000 (equivalent to approximately HK$38.3 million).

- 10 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Pursuant to the Disposal Agreement, it is agreed that the aforesaid loans shall be repayable following the below repayment schedule:

  1. within three (3) months from the Completion Date, the Purchaser shall arrange the Disposal Company to repay 30% of such amount (i.e. approximately RMB9,491,000) to the Group;
  2. within six (6) months from the Completion Date, the Purchaser shall arrange the Disposal Company to repay 30% of such amount (i.e. approximately RMB9,491,000) to the Group; and
  3. within the Stipulated Period, the Purchaser shall arrange the Disposal Company to repay the remaining 40% of such amount (i.e. RMB12,654,000) to the Group.

The outstanding amounts during the first six (6) months from the Completion Date are subject to an annual interest rate of 5.5%; whilst those which remain outstanding within the subsequent 6-month period are subject to an annual interest rate of 6.5% to be calculated starting from the Completion Date.

INFORMATION OF THE DISPOSAL COMPANY

The Disposal Company is a limited liability company established in the PRC principally engaged in kitchen waste treatment in the PRC through the operation of the Taiyuan Plant. The Disposal Company is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

The Taiyuan Plant

Located in Taiyuan, Shanxi Province, the PRC, the Taiyuan Plant is a kitchen waste treatment plant operated under the Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) model. Construction of the kitchen waste treatment plant was permitted pursuant to a service concession agreement entered into between the Disposal Company and the Taiyuan Environment and Hygiene Bureau* (太原市市容環境衛生管理局) (details of which are set forth in the following paragraph) and is in two phases with a total permitted capacity of 500 tons per day. Phase one facilities of 200 tons per day commenced operation in April 2017 and was fully utilised. Phase two facilities with an additional capacity of 300 tons per day have been substantially installed, but is subject to final quality review and acceptance by the relevant government authorities of Taiyuan.

The Disposal Company entered into a service concession agreement with the Taiyuan Environment and Hygiene Bureau* (太原市市容環境衛生管理局) (as grantor) to construct a kitchen waste treatment plant in Taiyuan. Under the said agreement, the Disposal Company will operate and make the kitchen waste treatment plant available to the public

- 11 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

for a period of 30 years from 2013 to 2043. The Disposal Company is generally entitled to use all the facilities of the plant; however, the facilities of the plant shall become the property of the grantor who shall also be entitled to retain the beneficial entitlement to any residual interest of the facilities at the end of the concession period. During the concession period, the grantor shall provide the Disposal Company a guaranteed minimum annual payment of approximately RMB22,570,000 for each year that the kitchen waste treatment plant is in operation. From December 2017 (when the kitchen waste treatment plant started commercial operation) to 2020, the annual payment received by the Disposal Company from the grantor was approximately RMB13,461,000, RMB24,626,000, RMB30,353,000 and RMB14,971,000 for each of the financial years ended 31 March 2018, 2019 and 2020 and the nine months ended 31 December 2020, respectively. The service concession agreement does not contain a renewal option.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE DISPOSAL AND THE PROVISION OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE

The Group has been principally engaged in foundation, civil engineering and general building works in Hong Kong. Given the decreasing contribution of revenue from civil engineering and general building works over the past few years, the Group decided to focus its resources on the foundation business, which the Board believes will continue to contribute stable revenue and profits to the Group.

On the other hand, with reference to the ''Circular on the Plan for Establishing Facilities for the Innocuous Treatment of Municipal Solid Waste under the Twelfth Five-Year Plan'' (全國城鎮生活垃圾無害化處理設施建設規劃的通知) issued by the State Council of the PRC in April 2012, the PRC government intended to accelerate kitchen waste treatment and sorting in the PRC. Moreover, the ''Thirteenth Five-Year Plan'' issued by the State Council of the PRC also reinforced the importance of ecosystem improvement and ecological development, including daily water and solid wastes treatment, and promotion for recycling and hazardless waste treatment. To ride on the potential

- 12 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

opportunities as driven by the government policies, the Group tapped into the environmental protection business since December 2015, in particular, the kitchen waste treatment business to diversify its business portfolio. As at the Latest Practicable Date, besides the Taiyuan Plant, the Group also owned/operated three kitchen waste treatment plants located in Hefei, Hanzhong and Hancheng of the PRC.

While endeavouring to streamline and enhance its business portfolio, the Group is relatively heavily indebted with gearing ratio staying at approximately 206.7% as at 30 September 2020. The short-term and long-terminterest-bearing bank and other borrowings of the Group amounted to approximately HK$132.8 million and HK$152.4 million, respectively, as at 30 September 2020. On 22 October 2020, the Company further received a writ of summons (the ''Writ'') with a statement of claim issued by the High Court of Hong Kong, wherein the plaintiff sought, amongst others, (i) a sum of US$6,572,708 (equivalent to approximately HK$51.0 million) with daily interest of US$1,667 (equivalent to approximately HK$12,922); and (ii) costs. Taking into account the financing need of the Group in the short to medium run, the Board has been aiming to strengthen the Group's financial position and liquidity by, amongst others, divesting part of the assets/projects of the Group in a way that also aligns with its future business development strategy.

Notwithstanding that the Group may record an estimated loss of approximately HK$19.9 million part of which is related to the non-cash impairment of associated goodwill of approximately HK$23.5 million, the Board considers that the Disposal would represent a good opportunity for the Group to realise its investment, thereby improving the Group's financial position and allowing it to maintain a stronger cash flow and lower its short-term indebtedness. Upon Completion, the Group will continue its operations in the foundation business and environmental protection business, in particular, the kitchen waste treatment business. Leveraging on its experience, the Group would consider and explore the business opportunities in providing kitchen waste related Engineering Procurement Construction (EPC) services (i.e. mainly the provision of kitchen waste related consultation and/or procurement services) which are less capital-intensive and require less resources as compared to the BOT operation model (i.e. the construction and operation of kitchen waste treatment plant under the relevant service concession agreement) which is currently operated by the Taiyuan Plant, and capture the momentous opportunity arising from the implementation of household waste sorting across the PRC. Given that the EPC services are less capital-intensive and require less resources, and thus their payback period is normally shorter as compared to the BOT operation model, the Board considers the provision of kitchen waste related EPC services to be more beneficial to the Group having also considered the existing tight liquidity and high gearing ratio of the Group.

With regard to the provision of financial assistance, the interest rates for the loans to the Disposal Company are higher than benchmark lending rates of the People's Bank of China. Moreover, taking into account the guarantee provided by and the strong government background and financial standing of the holding company of the Purchaser as detailed in the section headed ''Information on the Purchaser'' and that it was the Purchaser who requested for the provision of financial assistance as one of the commercial

- 13 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

terms of the Disposal Agreement, the Board is of the view that the Disposal Company would be able to repay those loans and the provision of financial assistance would provide additional interest income to the Group with acceptable risk level.

The Board considers that the terms of the Disposal and the provision of financial assistance are fair and reasonable and are on normal commercial terms, and the Disposal and the provision of financial assistance are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. Above all, in view of that (i) the total investment in the Disposal Company was RMB133,447,500 (being the initial investment cost of RMB43,447,500 and the subsequent capital injection of RMB90,000,000), of which RMB13,447,500 (being the partial consideration payment to the original vendor of the Disposal Company) was paid by the Disposal Company on behalf of the Vendor; and based on the Disposal Agreement, the Group will be able to recover full amount the said total investment, RMB120,000,000 as the Consideration, and the remaining RMB13,447,500 from settlement of the payables under the financial assistance; and (ii) the Consideration represents a premium over the appraised equity value of 100% equity interest in the Disposal Company as at 31 December 2020, the Board is of the view that the Consideration is fair and reasonable.

FINANCIAL EFFECT AND USE OF PROCEEDS OF THE DISPOSAL AND THE PROVISION OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE

Upon Completion, the Disposal Company will cease to be a subsidiary of the Group, and its consolidated financial results, assets and liabilities will no longer be included in the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

Assuming there be no adjustment to the Consideration, the Group expects to record an estimated loss of approximately HK$19.9 million from the Disposal, which is calculated with reference to the difference between the Consideration and the unaudited carrying amount of the Disposal Company as at 31 December 2020, after taking into account of the non-cash impairment of associated goodwill of approximately HK$23.5 million and the transaction costs and expenses and tax in relation to the Disposal (assuming that there will be no significant change in foreign exchange fluctuation at the relevant actual settlement dates). The said associated goodwill was arising from the acquisition of 100% equity interest in the Disposal Company for a cash consideration of RMB43,447,500 (equivalent to approximately HK$50.6 million based on the then applicable exchange rate) pursuant to the sale and purchase agreement dated 28 June 2016 entered into between the Group and the original vendor. The original goodwill of approximately HK$23.9 million was the difference between the consideration and the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the Disposal Company as at the date of completion of acquisition. The goodwill was denominated in RMB and will be translated into HK$ at the end of each reporting period.

The above calculation is only an estimate provided for illustrative purposes, and the actual gain or loss as a result of the Disposal to be recorded by the Company is subject to any changes to the financial position of the Disposal Company as at Completion and final audit, and hence may or may not be the same as the aforesaid expected loss.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

In addition, based on the unadjusted Consideration, the gross proceeds from the Disposal are expected to be RMB120 million (equivalent to approximately HK$145.5 million) and the net proceeds (after deducting related transaction costs and expenses and tax) are expected to be approximately HK$143.1 million. The Group intends to use the aforesaid net proceeds and the proceeds from provision of the financial assistance of approximately RMB31.6 million entirely for repayment of the interest-bearing liabilities of the Group, including but not limited to (i) bank and other borrowings; (ii) the bonds issued by the Company; and (iii) the potential amount for settlement of the Writ.

INFORMATION OF THE GROUP AND THE VENDOR

The Group is principally engaged in (i) construction works in Hong Kong; and (ii) environmental protection.

The Vendor is an investment holding company incorporated in Hong Kong and is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

INFORMATION OF THE PURCHASER

As the highest applicable percentage ratio calculated pursuant to Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules in respect of the Disposal exceeds 75%, the Disposal constitutes a very substantial disposal for the Company and is subject to the reporting, announcement, circular and Shareholders' approval requirements under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.

As the highest applicable percentage ratio calculated pursuant to Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules in respect of the provision of financial assistance to the Disposal Company exceeds 25% but is less than 75%, the provision of financial assistance to the Disposal Company constitutes a major transaction for the Company and is subject to the reporting, announcement, circular and Shareholders' approval requirements under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

Lease liabilities

As at 28 February 2021, all lease liabilities of the Group amounted to approximately HK$2.6 million, of which approximately HK$1.3 million was secured by plant and equipment with carrying value of approximately HK$3.2 million.

Charges

As at 28 February 2021, property, plant and equipment of approximately HK$87.1 million was pledged to secure certain borrowings granted to the Group.

Contingent liabilities

As at 28 February 2021, the Group had outstanding performance bonds for construction contracts amounted to approximately HK$53.4 million.

The Company agreed to provide corporate guarantee for the due performance of the repayment obligations of a wholly-owned subsidiary of Beijing TDR Environ-Tech Co., Ltd.* (北京天地人環保科技有限公司) (''TDR'') of up to RMB154.0 million under principal agreement dated 14 July 2017 entered into between such TDR's subsidiary and CITIC Financial Leasing Company Limited* (中信金融租賃有限公司).

Save as disclosed above, the Group did not have any other outstanding mortgages, charges, debentures, loan capital, bank overdrafts, loans, debt securities or other similar indebtedness, finance leases or hire purchase commitments, liabilities under acceptances or acceptance credits or any guarantees or any outstanding material contingent liabilities as at 28 February 2021.

The Group confirms that there has not been any material change in its indebtedness position since 28 February 2021.

3. MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGE

As at the Latest Practicable Date, save as disclosed below, the Directors are not aware of any material adverse change in the financial or trading position of the Group since 31 March 2020, being the date to which the latest published audited financial statements of the Group were made up:

(1) Enforcement of the pledge over the shares of Vimab Holdings AB (''Vimab'')

The industrial fluids systems services segment, Vimab, was indebted to a fund (the ''Fund'') in the principal amount of Swedish Krona 131 million pursuant to a loan agreement dated 1 February 2019 (the ''Loan Agreement''), and the Company noticed that the Fund had, prior to the repayment date of the Loan Agreement, enforced the

- I-3 -

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

pledge under the Loan Agreement and transferred all the issued shares of Vimab pledged under the Loan Agreement to Riddargatan Fo¨rvaltning AB, a company incorporated in Sweden which is an affiliated entity of the Fund (the ''Designated Company'') on or around 7 April 2020. As such, Vimab ceased to be a subsidiary of the Company subsequent to such enforcement of the pledged shares.

On 27 July 2020, the parties compromised on settling all disputes and claims among themselves relating to the Loan Agreement and/or the enforcement of the pledge over the pledged shares and entered into a discharge agreement (the ''Discharge Agreement''), pursuant to which the Group undertook that, amongst others, not to make any claims on the Designated Company's ownership over the pledged shares, and/or the enforcement of the pledge. On the other hand, the Fund undertook and confirmed that the obligations and/or liabilities of the Group in connection with or in relation to the Loan Agreement and any letter of comfort will cease and terminate. The Discharge Agreement will not exempt, waive or relieve the Fund from its obligation to repay any surplus from the enforcement of the pledge to the Group as the original pledgor of the relevant shares.

For details, please refer to the Company's announcement dated 27 July 2020.

(2) Receipt of writ of summons

The Company issued convertible bonds with principal amount of US$5 million to Forest Water, a limited company incorporated in Taiwan and listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange (Stock Code: 8473). As set out in the annual reports of the Company for the financial years ended 31 March 2020 and 31 March 2019, the suspension of trading in the Shares during the period from 3 July 2018 to 15 February 2019 constituted an event of default under the terms of the convertible bonds which entitled Forest Water to redeem all or part of the convertible bonds at its discretion, and the Company has been negotiating with Forest Water on the settlement arrangement about the repayment for outstanding principal and interests. During the course of negotiation, the Company did not pay the interest under the convertible bonds to Forest Water.

On 22 October 2020, the Company received a writ of summons dated 16 October 2020 with a statement of claim issued by the High Court of Hong Kong, wherein Forest Water (as plaintiff) sought, amongst others, the following orders against the Company (as defendant):

  1. a sum of US$6,572,708 (as the aggregate of the principal amount of US$5 million and interest of US$1,572,708 under the convertible bonds), with daily interest of US$1,667;
  2. costs; and
  3. further or other relief as the Court sees fit.

- I-4 -

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

The Company is in the course of seeking legal advice as well as negotiating with Forest Water for any possible resolution but is yet to reach any settlement agreement. Such matter was yet to finalise as at the Latest Practicable Date.

For details, please refer to the Company's announcement dated 22 October 2020.

4. WORKING CAPITAL

After taking into account the financial resources and facilities available to the Group and its internally generated funds, the Directors are of the opinion that the Group has sufficient working capital for its present requirement for at least the next twelve months from the date of publication of this circular.

5. FINANCIAL AND TRADING PROSPECTS

Upon Completion, the Remaining Group will continue its operations in the foundation business and environmental protection business.

The construction industry will still be full of challenges under the uncertainties arising from the COVID-19 pandemic and the outlook of the macro economy. Nevertheless, it is expected that the planned commitment of the government's public expenditure on infrastructure will help to create new projects for the construction industry in Hong Kong, and the Board is conservatively optimistic about the prospects of the construction industry in the long term.

The kitchen waste treatment industry experiences rapid investment growth after entering into 2020. During the first quarter of 2020, the newly announced kitchen waste treatment projects amounted to 13 which accounted for 60% of that of 2019. With the penetration level in first-tier cities and provincial cities having increased to a relatively high level, the related kitchen waste treatment investment has shifted to other second and third-tier cities within the PRC. Technology of this industry also experiences an upgrade from harmlessness to resource utilisation. Leveraging on the past experience, the Group would consider and explore the business opportunities in providing kitchen waste related Engineering Procurement Construction (EPC) services which are less capital-intensive and require less resources, and capture the momentous opportunity arising from the implementation of household waste sorting across the PRC. Given that the EPC services are less capital-intensive and require less resources, and thus their payback period is normally shorter as compared to the Build-Operate-Transfer operation model, the Board considers the provision of kitchen waste related EPC services to be more beneficial to the Group having also considered the existing tight liquidity and high gearing ratio of the Group.

The Disposal would represent a good opportunity for the Group to realise its investment, thereby improving the Group's financial position and allowing it to maintain a stronger cash flow and lower its short-term indebtedness. The Board believes that the improved financial position of the Group would be beneficial for its future business growth.

APPENDIX II UNAUDITED FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE DISPOSAL COMPANY

Set out below are unaudited statements of financial position of the Disposal Company as at 31 March 2018, 2019 and 2020 and 31 December 2020; unaudited statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, unaudited statements of changes in equity, and unaudited statements of cash flows of the Disposal Company for each of the years ended 31 March 2018, 2019 and 2020 and the nine months ended 31 December 2020 and certain explanatory notes of the Disposal Company (collectively the ''Financial Information''). The Financial Information has been prepared on the basis set out in Note 2 in this appendix, and in accordance with the accounting policies adopted by the Group and paragraph 68(2)(a)(i) of Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules. The Financial Information is prepared by the Directors solely for the purpose of inclusion in this circular in connection with the Disposal. The Company's auditors, BDO Limited, (the ''Reporting Accountants'') were engaged to review the Financial Information which is included in the Financial Information of the Disposal Company set out on pages II-2 to II-8 in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Review Engagements 2410 ''Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity'' issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the ''HKICPA'') and with reference to Practice Note 750 ''Review of Financial Information under the Hong Kong Listing Rules for a Very Substantial Disposal'' issued by the HKICPA.

A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable the reporting accountants to obtain assurance that the reporting accountants would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, the Reporting Accountants do not express an audit opinion.

Based on their review on the Financial Information of the Disposal Company, nothing has come to their attention that causes them to believe that the Financial Information is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the basis of preparation as set out in Note 2 below.

APPENDIX III

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND

ANALYSIS OF THE REMAINING GROUP

The management discussion and analysis of the Remaining Group for the three financial years ended 31 March 2020 and the six months ended 30 September 2020 is set out below. Upon Completion, the Disposal Company will cease to be a subsidiary of the Company, and the Company will no longer have any ownership interest in the Disposal Company. The financial data in respect of the Remaining Group, for the purpose of this circular, is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of the Group for each of the financial years ended 31 March 2018 (''FY2018''), 31 March 2019 (''FY2019'') and 31 March 2020 (''FY2020'') and the unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Group for the six months ended 30 September 2020 (''Six Months of 2020'').

FY2018

Construction business

During the year, revenue generated from this segment was approximately HK$703.7 million. Revenue from this segment was generated from both public and private sector projects with approximately 80% of the segment revenue contributed by the foundation projects in private sector.

Despite that the segment revenue maintained its level as in the financial year ended 31 March 2017 (''FY2017''), the segment results were adversely affected by the gross losses of certain foundation projects. The construction business segment recorded a segment loss of approximately HK$88.6 million for FY2018, which was considered to be specific to the unforeseen difficulties of the foundation projects, and thus was non-recurring in nature.

The Remaining Group completed a total of 11 projects in FY2018 and secured 13 new projects during the year with aggregate contract value of approximately HK$548.8 million. All new projects secured during the year had commenced construction, and two out of 13 new projects had been completed within FY2018. As at 31 March 2018, 14 projects were in progress.

Construction-related business

The construction-related business involved sales of construction materials. During the year, revenue from sales of construction materials to external customers amounted to approximately HK$111.1 million, representing an increase as compared to FY2017. The segment results declined as compared to FY2017 mainly attributable to the drop in gross profit margin due to fluctuated prices of construction materials and keen competition of the market.

Environmental protection business

Revenue from the environmental protection business during the year was mainly generated from the business of kitchen waste treatment, which was carried out under Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) model or Build-Own-Operate model. For FY2018, revenue

- III-1 -

APPENDIX III

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND

ANALYSIS OF THE REMAINING GROUP

from the environmental protection business dropped to approximately HK$54.9 million, which was mainly attributable to the decrease in construction revenue in relation to the kitchen waste treatment operation.

Kitchen waste treatment

During the year, revenue generated from kitchen waste treatment amounted to approximately HK$38.5 million, which was mainly attributable to the construction revenue from BOT projects under construction.

In January 2017, the Remaining Group entered into a sale and purchase agreement and a capital injection agreement with two independent third parties to acquire 80% equity interest in Hefei Feifan Bio Technology Co., Ltd.* (合肥非凡生物科技有限公司) (''Hefei Feifan'') and inject US$10 million into Hefei Feifan. In June 2017, the aforesaid acquisition was completed. Subsequent to completion and up to 31 March 2018, the Remaining Group had injected a total of US$6.8 million into Hefei Feifan. The Hefei plant commenced formal commercial operation in March 2018 and was operated under the BOT model.

In March 2017, the Remaining Group entered into an agreement (as supplemented by a supplemental agreement dated 3 January 2019) with two independent third parties to acquire (i) 85% equity interest in Shenzhen Xinbao Energy Technology Ltd.* (深圳市新寶 環保能源科技有限公司) (''Shenzhen Xinbao'') for a consideration of RMB15.5 million; and (ii) its remaining 15% equity interest for a consideration of RMB800,000.

During the year, the Loudi plant was under construction. In February 2018, the Remaining Group effectively disposed of 20% interest in the Loudi plant to an independent third party.

In June 2017, the Remaining Group also set up a joint venture company for the purpose of constructing and operating a kitchen waste plant in Hanzhong.

Provision of environmental improvement solutions

In December 2016, the Remaining Group acquired 51% equity interest in Clear Industry Company Limited (''Clear Industry'') from an independent third party for a consideration of RMB87,975,000 to be satisfied by (i) cash of RMB43,987,500; and (ii) allotment and issue of 18,982,992 Shares at the issue price of HK$2.97 per Share. The Clear Industry group was principally engaged in provision of Engineering Procurement Construction (EPC) services for kitchen waste treatment and water treatment projects, provision of environmental and purifying improvement solutions and systems, and the sale and trading of environmental equipment. The Clear Industry group contributed revenue of approximately RMB9.4 million to the Remaining Group.

- III-2 -

APPENDIX III

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND

ANALYSIS OF THE REMAINING GROUP

Industrial water treatment

During the year, the Remaining Group still owned certain assets for treatment of highly saline and corrosive process waters generated during industrial activities (the ''Memsys Assets''), which it acquired in October 2016. After acquisition of the Memsys Assets, the Remaining Group had further promoted, developed and marketed the vacuum multi effect membrance distillation (V-MEMD) technology to users in industrial water treatment industry. For FY2018, revenue generated from the Memsys Assets amounted to approximately HK$4.8 million. As part of its effort to commercialise the application of the V-MEMD technology, in March 2017, the Remaining Group entered into a conditional agreement to acquire 100% equity interest in Beijing China Science Resources & Environmental Technology Co., Ltd.* (北京中科瑞升資源環境技術有限公司) (''BCSRET''). However, this proposed acquisition lapsed in December 2017.

In April 2017, the Remaining Group entered into a framework agreement with an independent third party to acquire 100% equity interest in Beijing TDR Environ-Tech Co., Ltd.* (北京天地人環保科技有限公司) (''TDR'') for a consideration of RMB650 million. However, this framework agreement lapsed on 24 October 2017.

Strategic investments

In June 2017, the Remaining Group entered into a limited partnership agreement (the ''LP Agreement'') with CEF V Management, L.P. (being the general partner of the partnership) and Tsing Capital (HK) Limited (being the management company of the partnership). Pursuant to the LP Agreement, the Remaining Group should contribute US$5 million as capital commitment to the partnership. The primary purpose of the partnership was to make venture capital investments, including investing in and holding equity and equity-oriented securities of companies with a nexus to the PRC and focus on the clean-tech-related sectors. During the year, no capital contribution was made by the Remaining Group.

Liquidity and financial resources

As at 31 March 2018, the total assets of the Remaining Group increased to approximately HK$1,177.2 million. The Remaining Group also maintained relatively stable growth in the financial position during the year. As at 31 March 2018, the Remaining Group had bank balances and cash (including pledged bank deposits) of approximately HK$60.8 million.

The total interest-bearing loans, comprising finance leases, bank and other borrowings and convertible bonds (liability component), of the Remaining Group as at 31 March 2018 was approximately HK$107.2 million, and the current ratio was approximately 1.25.

The Remaining Group's borrowings and bank balances were principally denominated in HK$ and RMB and there might be significant exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations.

- III-3 -

APPENDIX III

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND

ANALYSIS OF THE REMAINING GROUP

Gearing ratio

The gearing ratio as at 31 March 2018 was approximately 26.41%. The increase in gearing ratio was mainly attributable to the increase in overall borrowings and decline in equity attributable to the owners of the Company during the year.

The gearing ratio was calculated as the payables incurred not in the ordinary course of business (excluding loan from related companies/directors/shareholders) divided by total equity attributable to the owners of the Company as at the year end.

Pledge of assets

As at 31 March 2018, the Remaining Group pledged certain assets including (i) bank deposits of approximately HK$5 million; and (ii) property, plant and equipment with carrying values of approximately HK$25,884,000, as collateral to secure the facilities granted to the Remaining Group.

The Remaining Group also guaranteed certain facilities through certain proceeds from its service concession arrangements, equity interests in subsidiaries and the prepaid lease payments and equipment.

Foreign exchange exposure

Certain revenue-generating operations and assets and liabilities of the Remaining Group were denominated in RMB and EURO and might expose the Remaining Group to the fluctuation of HK$ against RMB and EURO. The Remaining Group did not enter into any hedging arrangement or derivative products. However, the Board and management would continue to monitor the foreign currency exchange exposure and would consider adopting certain hedging measures against the currency risk when necessary.

Capital structure

During the year, the Remaining Group had issued convertible bonds in the principal amount of US$5 million (the ''CB''), and allot and issue 10,164,000 new Shares, with details as summarised below:

Issue of CB

The Company entered into a subscription agreement with Forest Water Environmental Engineering Co., Ltd. (''Forest Water''), pursuant to which the Company conditionally agreed to issue, and Forest Water conditionally agreed to subscribe for the CB which carried interest at 6.5% per annum, with a yield to maturity of 12% per annum internal rate of return applied on the principal amount. The initial conversion price (subject to adjustment) was HK$3.50.

The gross proceeds from such subscription were US$5 million. The net proceeds, after deducting all relevant costs and expenses, were approximately HK$38.0 million.

APPENDIX III

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND

ANALYSIS OF THE REMAINING GROUP

Allotment and issue of new Shares

The Company entered into a subscription agreement with the subscriber, pursuant to which the Company conditionally agreed to allot and issue, and the subscriber conditionally agreed to subscribe for 10,164,000 subscription Shares at the subscription price of HK$3.71 per subscription Share. The gross proceeds from such subscription were approximately HK$37.7 million.

The proceeds from the CB and the subscription Shares were intended to be used for the Company's investment in its kitchen waste and water treatment businesses and as general working capital. As at 31 March 2018, the Remaining Group had utilised all the net proceeds for development of the kitchen waste treatment business.

Capital commitments

As at 31 March 2018, the Remaining Group had capital commitment of approximately HK$25,905,000 in relation to the projects under the ordinary course of business. At as 31 March 2018, the Remaining Group also had capital commitment of US$5 million in relation to capital injection into a limited partnership under the LP Agreement.

Human resources management

As at 31 March 2018, the Remaining Group had 285 employees, including Directors. Total staff costs (including Directors' emoluments) were approximately HK$101,545,000. Remuneration was determined with reference to market norms and individual employees' performance, qualification and experience.

On top of basic salaries, bonuses might be paid by reference to the Remaining Group's performance as well as individual's performance. Other staff benefits included provision of retirement benefit, injury insurance and share options.

Significant investments held

As at 31 March 2018, the Remaining Group held approximately 10.33% of the total issued share capital of Josab Water Solutions AB (''Josab''), the shares of which are listed on Spotlight Stock Market (formerly AktieTorget), a stock exchange in Sweden. Save as disclosed herein and except for investment in subsidiaries, during FY2018, the Remaining Group did not hold any significant investment in equity interest in any other company.

Material acquisitions and disposals of subsidiaries and affiliated companies

APPENDIX III

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND

ANALYSIS OF THE REMAINING GROUP

Contingent liabilities

As at 31 March 2018, the Remaining Group had outstanding performance bond for construction contracts amounted to approximately HK$58.4 million.

The Company agreed to provide corporate guarantee for the due performance of the repayment obligations of a wholly-owned subsidiary of TDR of up to RMB153,986,000 under a principal agreement dated 14 July 2017 entered into between such TDR's subsidiary and CITIC Financial Leasing Company Limited* (中信金融租賃有限公司). In consideration of the corporate guarantee provided by the Company, TDR entered into a counter-guarantee agreement with the Company, pursuant to which TDR agreed to provide to the Company the guarantee fee and the counter-guarantee in respect of such corporate guarantee (altogether, the ''Guarantees'').

FY2019

Construction business

During the year, revenue generated from this segment was approximately HK$706.4 million. Revenue from this segment was generated from both public and private sector projects with approximately 91% of the segment revenue contributed by the foundation projects in private sector.

The overall gross profit margin of the construction business increased to approximately 10.4%. The significant improvement was attributable to the increase in projects with higher profit margin as compared to FY2018, and fewer unexpected increase in project costs due to delay in work progress.

The Remaining Group completed a total of 11 projects in FY2019 and secured nine new projects during the year with aggregate contract value of approximately HK$547.5 million. All new projects secured during the year had commenced construction, and one out of the nine new projects was completed during the year. As at 31 March 2019, 12 projects were in progress.

Construction-related business

The construction-related business involved sales of construction materials. During the year, revenue from sales of construction materials to external customers amounted to approximately HK$58.4 million, representing a decrease as compared to FY2018. The decrease was mainly attributable to fluctuated prices of construction materials and keen competition of the market.

Environmental protection business

For FY2019, the Remaining Group's revenue from the environmental protection business decreased to approximately HK$50.7 million, which was mainly attributable to the decrease in revenue from the kitchen waste treatment operation.

- III-6 -

APPENDIX III

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND

ANALYSIS OF THE REMAINING GROUP

Kitchen waste treatment

During the year, revenue generated from kitchen waste treatment amounted to approximately HK$40.3 million, which was mainly attributable to the construction revenue from BOT projects under construction.

During the year, the Hefei plant was undergoing a technology improvement, and its utilised capacity was therefore reduced to 100 tons per day as at 31 March 2019.

During the year, the Shenzhen authorities were yet to decide where the permanent site for the Shenzhen plant should be located. A supplemental agreement was entered into by the Remaining Group to acquire the remaining 15% equity interest in Shenzhen Xinbao for a consideration of RMB800,000. Thereafter, the Remaining Group entered into a disposal agreement with an independent third party to dispose of the entire equity interest in Shenzhen Xinbao for a consideration of RMB9.5 million. Such disposal was completed on 31 March 2019.

In addition, the Loudi plant was still under construction while construction of the Hanzhong plant was pending completion of the prefeasibility and market studies by the relevant government authorities.

During the year, the Remaining Group further acquired the entire equity interest in Hancheng Jiemu Environmental Technology Co. Ltd.* (韓城潔姆環保科技有限責任公司) at a consideration of RMB3,323,000. The consideration would be satisfied by assumption of outstanding debts of RMB3 million and offsetting the payable owned to the Remaining Group. Subsequently in May 2018, the Hancheng plant was granted an exclusive concession right (BOT model) to operate a kitchen waste treatment plant with capacity of 20,000 tons per annum for a term of 30 years. However, during construction, certain design deficiencies were found in respect of the waste-water system of the Hancheng plant. Such deficiencies may result in malfunction of the Hancheng plant as well as imposition of penalty for output of polluted water. The Remaining Group had put forward to the Hancheng Federation of Supply and Marketing Cooperatives for modification of the Hancheng plant's design, but had yet to reach any agreement with it. Construction of Hancheng plant had been pending until the above matter was resolved.

Provision of environmental improvement solutions

During the year, the Clear Industry group contributed revenue of approximately RMB7.0 million to the Remaining Group, representing a decrease as compared to FY2018. The decrease was mainly attributable to the decreased number of on-going EPC projects during the year.

Industrial water treatment

In May 2018, the Remaining Group entered into an agreement to transfer all the rights and ownership of the Memsys Assets owned by the Remaining Group to Cevital International (Dubai) Ltd. (the ''Memsys Purchaser'') for a consideration of EURO3.5

- III-7 -

APPENDIX III

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND

ANALYSIS OF THE REMAINING GROUP

million, resulting in a gain on disposal of approximately EURO1.5 million. As part and parcel of the transfer, the Remaining Group also entered into a cooperation agreement with the Memsys Purchaser to set up a joint venture company (the ''Memsys JV'') which was owned as to 50% by the Remaining Group and as to 50% by the Memsys Purchaser for the purpose of developing the market of the relevant technology in the PRC. The Memsys JV also intended to engage BCSRET for business collaboration to develop the PRC market for the Memsys Assets. The Remaining Group and the Memsys Purchaser should contribute HK$11.7 million as the share capital of the Memsys JV. The aforesaid transfer was completed on 23 July 2018 and the Memsys JV was established on 18 September 2018. Capital injection of HK$11.7 million to the Memsys JV had not been made and the Memsys JV had not yet commenced business.

During the year, the Remaining Group initiated further negotiation with the TDR owners with a view to review the possible cooperation with TDR given the synergies between the technology and know-how of the Remaining Group in membrane distillation system and the back-end system for concentrated water possessed by TDR. The TDR owners agreed in principle to allow the Remaining Group to participate in the equity in TDR at the consideration calculated on the basis of not more than RMB800 million for 100% of TDR. In such case, the Remaining Group might acquire a maximum of 3.25% at a consideration of RMB26.0 million.

Strategic investments

As the partnership fund under the LP Agreement had not been launched, the parties to the LP Agreement entered into a withdrawal deed on 24 January 2019, pursuant to which the Remaining Group withdrew from the partnership under the LP Agreement, and the Remaining Group was neither obliged to make any capital contribution to the partnership nor incur any management fee payable.

Industrial fluids systems service

On 3 May 2018, the Remaining Group entered into a share purchase agreement (the ''Vimab Agreement'') with, amongst others, P.H.M Holding AB and Friction Invest AB as vendors, to acquire the entire issued share capital of Vimab Holdings AB (''Vimab'') for a total consideration of HK$170,524,000. Pursuant to the Vimab Agreement, the consideration of such acquisition should be satisfied as to (i) approximately HK$23.0 million in cash; and (ii) approximately HK$147.5 million by way of the allotment and issue of 42,137,142 new Shares (the ''Consideration Shares'') at the issue price of HK$3.5 per Share. 19,488,428 new Shares out of the Consideration Shares were subject to a lock-up period, which would be released upon fulfilment of certain financial benchmarks by Vimab for the financial years ended 31 December 2018 and 2019. The acquisition was completed on 31 May 2018. Moreover, one of the conditions precedent to the Vimab Agreement was that 13 key employees of Vimab should each enter into a subscription agreement as subscriber with the Company to subscribe for a total of 5,380,000 Shares at the total subscription price

- III-8 -

ANALYSIS OF THE REMAINING GROUP

of HK$18,830,000 (i.e. HK$3.5 per Share) (collectively, the ''Employees Subscription Agreements''). The Employees Subscription Agreements were all entered into on 31 May 2018.

Liquidity and financial resources

As at 31 March 2019, the Remaining Group had bank balances and cash (including pledged bank deposits) of approximately HK$38.0 million.

The total interest-bearing loans comprising finance leases, bank and other borrowings and convertible bonds (liability component) of the Remaining Group as at 31 March 2019 were approximately HK$224.8 million, and current ratio was approximately 1.25.

The Remaining Group's borrowings and bank balances were principally denominated in HK$, RMB and Swedish Krona (''SEK'') and there might be significant exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations.

As trading in the Shares had been suspended for more than the stipulated period (i.e. 30 Business Days) according to the terms of the CB issued to Forest Water, the Company had been negotiating with Forest Water for settlement arrangement regarding repayment of the outstanding principal and interests. As at 31 March 2019, the principal and accrued interests outstanding under the CB were approximately US$5.6 million.

Gearing ratio

The gearing ratio as at 31 March 2019 was approximately 53.73%. The increase in gearing ratio was mainly attributable to the increase in overall borrowings during the year.

The gearing ratio was calculated as the payables incurred not in the ordinary course of business (excluding loan from related companies/directors/shareholders) divided by total equity attributable to the owners of the Company as at the year end.

Pledge of assets

As at 31 March 2019, the Remaining Group pledged certain assets including property, plant and equipment with carrying values of approximately HK$20,261,000, as collateral to secure the facilities granted to the Remaining Group.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND

ANALYSIS OF THE REMAINING GROUP

FY2020

Construction business

During the year, revenue generated from this segment was approximately HK$535.0 million, representing a decrease as compared to FY2019. The decrease was mainly attributable to the decrease in the number of sizable projects undertaken by the Remaining Group during the year.

Revenue from this segment was generated from both public and private sector projects with approximately 87.5% of the segment revenue contributed by the foundation projects in private sector.

The overall gross profit margin of the construction business decreased to approximately 6.9%. The significant decrease was attributable to (i) social events and blockage of traffic in substantial areas in Hong Kong from time to time during the year and also the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic during the first quarter of 2020, causing reduction of allowable working hours and disruption of delivery of resources, leading to the increase in overall operating costs of the construction business; and (ii) certain projects with lower gross profit margin were undertaken during the year as a result of increased competition of the market.

The Remaining Group completed a total of 12 projects in FY2020 and secured 11 new projects during the year with aggregate contract value of approximately HK$695.8 million. All new projects secured during the year had commenced construction, and three out of 11 new projects was completed during the year. As at 31 March 2020, 11 projects were in progress.

Construction-related business

The construction-related business involved sales of construction materials, of which the revenue generated was insignificant during FY2020.

Environmental protection business

For the year, the Remaining Group's revenue from the environmental protection business increased to approximately HK$56.9 million, which was mainly attributable to the increase in revenue from provision of EPC services.

Kitchen waste treatment

During the year, revenue generated from kitchen waste treatment amounted to HK$10.1 million, which was mainly attributable to the construction revenue from BOT projects under construction.

- III-11 -

APPENDIX III

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND

ANALYSIS OF THE REMAINING GROUP

The Hefei plant had been undergoing technological improvement since the first quarter of 2019, but the output was yet to meet the anticipated performance and outcome. The failure in technological improvement not only resulted in delay in the proposed price adjustment on the kitchen waste treatment fee, but also affected the volume and quality of other by-products output including organic fertilizers, biogas etc., and deteriorated the estimated recoverable amounts of the Hefei plant. Therefore, impairment losses of approximately HK$1,304,000 and HK$52,399,000 were recognised for goodwill and operating concession related to the Hefei plant.

During the year, the Loudi plant was still under construction while construction of the Hanzhong plant was pending completion of the prefeasibility and market studies by the relevant government authorities.

On the other hand, as mentioned, the deficiencies found during construction of the Hancheng plant might result in the malfunction of its operation as well as imposition of penalty for output of polluted water. The Remaining Group had put forward to the Hancheng Federation of Supply and Marketing Cooperatives for the modification of the Hancheng plant's design, but had yet to reach any agreement with it. During the year, the Remaining Group obtained several reminders from the Hancheng Federation of Supply and Marketing Cooperatives urging for resumption of construction of the Hancheng plant, while the Hancheng Municipal Ministry of Natural Resources issued an administrative penalty notice alleging the Hancheng plant for occupying certain collective land. According to such notice, the ministry proposed penalties which required: (i) returning such occupied collective land; (ii) confiscating any building and facilities on such occupied collective land; and (iii) payment of penalty of approximately RMB260,000. The Remaining Group submitted an explanation to a hearing of the ministry, and construction of the Hancheng plant had been pending during the year until the above matters were resolved.

Provision of environmental improvement solutions

During the year, the Clear Industry group contributed revenue of approximately RMB41.5 million to the Remaining Group, representing an increase as compared to FY2019. The increase was mainly attributable to the increased number of on-going EPC projects during the year.

Industrial water treatment

The Memsys JV had not commenced business during the year.

Industrial fluids systems service

Despite the entering into of the Employees Subscription Agreements on 31 May 2018, it was subsequently discovered that 12 out of 13 subscribers had made their respective payments for their subscription Shares in a total subscription amount of HK$17,066,000 to Henrik Melinder (''Melinder''), being one of the guarantors to the Vimab Agreement, with the understanding that it would deliver the money to the Company on their behalf. However, Melinder had not delivered the subscription monies to the Company. To settle the

- III-12 -

APPENDIX III

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND

ANALYSIS OF THE REMAINING GROUP

claims against Melinder for the subscription monies, on 22 August 2018, the Remaining Group and the 12 subscribers entered into a deed of settlement with Melinder. Subsequently on 3 December 2019, the Company and all subscribers also entered into 13 deeds of termination, pursuant to which the parties agreed that the relevant Employees Subscription Agreements should be terminated and be of no further force and effect. Upon termination of the relevant Employees Subscription Agreements, all future obligations and liabilities of the parties thereunder were extinguished in the entirety.

In addition, after the signing of a supplement agreement to the Vimab Agreement on 3 December 2019 by the parties thereto, all the previous claims among the relevant parties were resolved.

Revenue from the Vimab group increased to approximately HK$188.6 million as in the current year it covered a full year of revenue while only ten-month revenue were consolidated (since acquisition to 31 March 2019) for the previous year.

Liquidity and financial resources

As at 31 March 2020, the Remaining Group had bank balances and cash of approximately HK$29.8 million.

The total interest-bearing loans comprising leases liabilities, bonds, bank and other borrowings of the Remaining Group as at 31 March 2020 were approximately HK$288 million, and the current ratio was approximately 0.57.

The Remaining Group's borrowings and bank balances were principally denominated in HK$, RMB and SEK, and there might be significant exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations.

Up to the date of the annual report of the Company for FY2020, formal agreement was yet to be reached between the Remaining Group and Forest Water, and Forest Water had not served any written notice for repayment.

Gearing ratio

The gearing ratio as at 31 March 2020 was approximately 261.11%. The increase in gearing ratio was mainly attributable to the increase in overall borrowings during the year.

The gearing ratio was calculated as the payables incurred not in the ordinary course of business (excluding loan from related companies/directors/shareholders) divided by total equity attributable to the owners of the Company as at the year end.

- III-13 -

Pledge of assets

As at 31 March 2020, the Remaining Group pledged certain assets including property, plant and equipment with carrying values of approximately HK$112,810,000 as collateral to secure the facilities granted to the Remaining Group. The Remaining Group also guaranteed certain facilities through receivables from its service concession arrangements, equity interests in subsidiaries and the prepaid lease payments and equipment.

Foreign exchange exposure

Certain revenue-generating operations and assets and liabilities of the Remaining Group were denominated in RMB and SEK and might expose the Remaining Group to the fluctuation of HK$ against RMB and SEK. The Remaining Group did not enter into any hedging arrangement or derivative products. However, the Board and management would continue to monitor the foreign currency exchange exposure and would consider adopting certain hedging measures against the currency risk when necessary.

Capital structure

During the year, there had been no change in capital structure of the Company. The capital of the Company comprised ordinary shares and capital reserves. The Remaining Group financed its working capital requirements through a combination of funds generated from operations and borrowings.

Capital commitments

As at 31 March 2020, the Remaining Group had capital commitment of approximately HK$44,793,000 in relation to the projects under the ordinary course of business.

Human resources management

As at 31 March 2020, the Remaining Group had 406 employees, including Directors. Total staff costs (including Directors' emoluments) were approximately HK$178,204,000 for the year. Remuneration was determined with reference to market norms and individual employees' performance, qualification and experience.

On top of basic salaries, bonuses might be paid by reference to the Remaining Group's performance as well as individual's performance. Other staff benefits included provision of retirement benefit, injury insurance and share options.

Significant investments held

As at 31 March 2020, the Remaining Group held approximately 8.69% of the total issued share capital of Josab. Such Josab's shares were held under Vimab and was derecognised from the Remaining Group following the settlement of claims among the parties to the Vimab Agreement.

APPENDIX III

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND

ANALYSIS OF THE REMAINING GROUP

Save as disclosed herein and except for investment in subsidiaries, during the year, the Remaining Group did not hold any significant investment in equity interest in any other company.

Material acquisitions and disposals of subsidiaries and affiliated companies

Save as disclosed herein, the Remaining Group did not have any material acquisitions and disposals of subsidiaries and affiliated companies during FY2020.

Contingent liabilities

As at 31 March 2020, the Remaining Group had outstanding performance bond for construction contracts amounted to approximately HK$68.4 million, and the Guarantees remained in place.

SIX MONTHS OF 2020

Construction business

For the period, revenue generated from this segment amounted to approximately HK$291.5 million, representing a decrease as compared to the corresponding period in 2019. Such decrease was mainly due to the decrease of the number of sizable projects undertaken by the Remaining Group during the period.

During the period, the Remaining Group disposed of its civil engineering works and building works within the construction business to an independent third party at a consideration of HK$24 million. Revenue from such disposed operations was approximately HK$14,151,000 (from 1 April 2020 up to disposal).

If the disposed operations of civil engineering works and building works were excluded, the overall gross profit margin of the remaining construction business (i.e. foundation works) would increase to approximately 18.3% for the period. The significant improvement was attributable to the increase in projects with higher profit margin, and no unexpected increase in project costs due to delay in work progress.

As at 30 September 2020, the Remaining Group completed four projects, and had seven projects in progress with an aggregate contract value of approximately HK$595.5 million. The management considered that all of the projects in progress were on schedule and none of them would cause the Remaining Group to indemnify any third parties and increase its contingent liabilities.

Environmental protection business

For the period, the Remaining Group's revenue from the environmental protection business increased to approximately HK$38.1 million.

- III-15 -

APPENDIX III

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND

ANALYSIS OF THE REMAINING GROUP

Kitchen waste treatment

During the period, revenue generated from kitchen waste treatment amounted to approximately HK$17.8 million. The decrease was mainly caused by certain quarantine arrangement under the COVID-19 pandemic which lowered the collection and processing of kitchen waste.

In prior period, the Hefei plant had been undergoing a technology improvement and its capacity was therefore reduced. In or around August 2020, phase 1 of technology improvement was in place for trial operations.

The Loudi plant was under construction. The Loudi plant was an indirect 80%-owned subsidiary of the Company and the Remaining Group further acquired its 20% equity interest during the period at a consideration of RMB6,110,600 with an aim to facilitate the proposed disposal of entire Loudi plant so as to strengthen the Remaining Group's financial position and liquidity. Subsequent to 30 September 2020, the Remaining Group disposed of its entire interests in the Loudi plant. As such, the Loudi plant had been classified as a disposal group held for sale and presented separately in the statement of financial position as at 30 September 2020. As the proceeds of such disposal were less than the carrying amount of the related net assets, an impairment of approximately HK$16,416,000 was recognised.

During the period, construction of the Hanzhong plant was still pending completion of the pre-feasibility and market studies by the relevant government authorities.

During the period, construction of the Hancheng plant had still been pending until the previous matters were resolved.

Provision of environmental protection solutions

On 28 May 2020, the parties to the acquisition of Clear Industry in December 2016 entered into a settlement agreement pursuant to which they agreed to resolve the dispute over the outstanding consideration of RMB7,987,500 (due by the Remaining Group) and the compensation (due by the vendor and its guarantor) arising from the shortfall between the profit guarantee and the consideration under the relevant acquisition agreement by, amongst others, the Remaining Group returning the sale shares of Clear Industry to the vendor, while the vendor paying the Remaining Group a cash refund of RMB36 million and the cash proceeds from the disposal of the Company's consideration shares.

Since 1 April 2020 up to completion of the settlement agreement, the Clear Industry group contributed revenue of approximately RMB13.1 million to the Group, which was attributable to the increased number of on-going EPC projects. The Remaining Group ceased to consolidate the results, assets and liabilities of the Clear Industry group upon completion of the settlement agreement on 31 July 2020, which resulted in a gain of approximately HK$41,613,000.

Industrial water treatment

During the period, the shareholders to the Memsys JV resolved to commence a voluntary liquidation for the Memsys JV and such liquidation was yet to complete as at 30 September 2020. Such liquidation would have no material impact on the Remaining Group, and upon completion of the liquidation of Memsys JV, the Remaining Group's obligation to the cooperation agreement should be discharged entirely.

The Company entered into a memorandum of understanding dated 22 July 2020 with an affiliate of the TDR owners pursuant to which the Company (or through its designated parties) intended to acquire about 18% equity interest in TDR.

Industrial fluids systems services

Vimab was indebted to a fund (the ''Fund'') in the principal amount of SEK131 million under a loan agreement entered into between Vimab (as borrower) and the Fund (as lender) (the ''Loan Agreement''). Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the indebtedness should be repaid in full on 16 April 2021, and such indebtedness was secured (the ''Pledge'') by all the issued shares of Vimab (the ''Pledged Shares''). The Fund enforced the Pledge and transferred all the Pledged Shares to a company designated by it on or around 7 April 2020. As such, Vimab ceased to be a subsidiary of the Company subsequent to such enforcement of the Pledged Shares, and the Remaining Group did not consolidate the results, assets and liabilities upon enforcement of the Pledge on or around 7 April 2020.

Liquidity and financial resources

As at 30 September 2020, the total assets of the Remaining Group decreased to approximately HK$743.5 million. As at 30 September 2020, the Remaining Group had bank balances and cash of approximately HK$35.4 million.

The total interest-bearing loans comprising lease liabilities, interest bearing bank and other borrowings and bonds of the Remaining Group as at 30 September 2020 was approximately HK$172.2 million, and current ratio was approximately 0.82.

The Remaining Group's borrowings and bank balances were principally denominated in HK$ and RMB and there might be significant exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations.

Included in other payables was the amount due to Forest Water with principal and accrued interests of US$6.6 million, resulting from prior issue of the CB to Forest Water. The CB was classified as other payables upon the Shares suspended for trading for more than 30 Business Days. In October 2020, the Company received a writ of summons against the Company, pursuant to which Forest Water sought, amongst others, the repayment of the outstanding balances due to it.

APPENDIX III

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND

ANALYSIS OF THE REMAINING GROUP

Gearing ratio

The gearing ratio as at 30 September 2020 was approximately 112.97%. The decrease in gearing ratio was mainly attributable to the decrease in overall borrowings during the period.

The gearing ratio was calculated as the payables incurred not in the ordinary course of business (excluding loan from related companies/directors/shareholders) divided by total equity attributable to the owners of the Company as at the period end.

Pledge of assets

As at 30 September 2020, the Remaining Group pledged certain assets including property, plant and equipment with carrying values of approximately HK$100,806,000 as collateral to secure the facilities granted to the Remaining Group.

The Remaining Group also guaranteed certain facilities through receivables from its service concession arrangements, equity interests in subsidiaries and the prepaid lease payments and equipment.

Foreign exchange exposure

Certain revenue-generating operations and assets and liabilities of the Remaining Group were denominated in RMB and might expose the Remaining Group to the fluctuation of HK$ against RMB. The Remaining Group did not enter into any hedging arrangement or derivative products. However, the Board and management would continue to monitor the foreign currency exchange exposure and would consider adopting certain hedging measures against the currency risk when necessary.

Capital structure

During the period, the Remaining Group allotted and issued 50,922,000 placing Shares and 49,768,000 subscription Shares under the then general mandate of the Company, details of which are summarised below:

BUSINESS VALUATION REPORT

The following is the text of a letter and valuation certificates, prepared for the purpose of incorporation in this circular received from Fujian United Assets Evaluation & Land and Real Estate Appraisal Co., Ltd., an independent valuer and consultant, in connection with its valuation of the equity value of the Disposal Company as at 31 December 2020.

To Prime World Limited

ASSET VALUE OF 100% EQUITY INTEREST IN TAIYUAN TIANRUN BIOENERGY CO., LTD IN RELATION TO THE PROPOSED SHARE TRANSFER BY PRIME WORLD LIMITED

We have been engaged by you (hereinafter referred to as ''Prime World'') to evaluate the market value of the 100% equity interest in Taiyuan Tianrun Bioenergy Co., Ltd* 太原 天潤生物能源有限公司 (hereinafter referred to as ''Disposal Company'') on 31 December 2020, being the benchmark date of the valuation, in relation to a proposed share transfer to be conducted by you, according to the necessary evaluation processes using the asset-based approach (the cost method) in an independent, objective and fair manner in accordance with the relevant requirements of the relevant laws, administrative regulations and asset valuation standards. A summary of the asset valuation report is as follows:

  1. PURPOSE OF VALUATION

The purpose of this valuation is to provide a reference on the market value of the 100% equity interest in the Disposal Company, being the subject matter of the proposed share transfer to be conducted by Prime World Limited, on 31 December 2020, being the benchmark date of the valuation, for reference.

  1. SUBJECT MATTER AND SCOPE OF VALUATION

The subject matter of this valuation is the value of the 100% equity interest in the Disposal Company on 31 December 2020, being the benchmark date of the valuation. The scope of the valuation of the subject matter includes all assets and liabilities of the Disposal Company on 31 December 2020.

  1. TYPE OF VALUE
    Market value is selected as the basis of valuation of this valuation report.

IV. BENCHMARK DATE OF VALUATION

The benchmark date of this valuation is 31 December 2020.

- V-1 -

APPENDIX V

BUSINESS VALUATION REPORT

  1. METHODOLOGY

Both the asset-based approach (the cost method) and income approach are considered in this valuation. The result of the asset-based approach (the cost method) is selected as the final conclusion.

Comparison of valuation approach

The asset-based approach determines the value of a subject matter based on a reasonable valuation of each line item of assets and liabilities of a company. It identifies the value of a company's equity interest by subtracting the appraised value of the integral liabilities of the company from the appraised value of its integral assets. It reflects the value of a company in an intuitive manner.

The income approach is based on expectations and judgements on future macro-economic policies and market. To the best knowledge of the valuer, the Disposal Company has been established for years. In the past two years, income increased slightly while gross profit and profit margins fluctuated moderately. The Disposal Company is expected to have better management capability and stabling operation in subsequent production and operation. However, the operation and development of the Disposal Company is currently subject to relatively numerous industry, internal and market uncertainties. Specific business strategies and execution of the Disposal Company for the future are relatively uncertain. The asset-based approach determines and reflect the value of a company in a relatively intuitive manner based on the overall assets of the company. Therefore, the quality and quantity of the data used by the income approach in this valuation is less compelling than those used by the asset-based approach. The use of the result of the asset-based approach as the final conclusion of the valuation can better reflect the corporate value of the appraised entity.

- V-2 -

APPENDIX V

BUSINESS VALUATION REPORT

VI. CONCLUSION AND VALIDITY PERIOD

Under the asset-based approach (the cost method), the appraised value of the 100% equity interest in the Disposal Company as at the benchmark date of the valuation was RMB115,104,000.

Valuation result of the asset-based approach (the cost method)

Based on the above, for the purpose of this valuation, the result of the asset-based approach is more reasonable as the market value of the 100% equity interest of the appraised entity, and is selected as the market value of the 100% equity interest of the appraised entity on the benchmark date of the valuation.

We have determined that the value of the equity interest in the Disposal Company on the valuation date is as follows:

APPENDIX V

BUSINESS VALUATION REPORT

Explanation regarding the valuation of major items and analysis of valuation gain or loss

Apart from (i) operating concession and receivables under operating concession arrangements, net of provision; and (ii) other payables, the carrying values of other assets and liabilities approximate to their respective market value. The valuation methods for: (i) operating concession and receivables under operating concession arrangement, net of provision; and (ii) other payables, are set out as follows:

  1. Operating concession and receivables under operating concession arrangements, net of provision;
    1. Valuation methodology

The fair value of the operating concession arrangements is determined by considering the total construction costs of the operating concession arrangement and the anticipated return on the construction achieved by the selected comparable companies. When determining the fair value of the operating concession arrangements, the costs of the service concession arrangements included buildings and structures, equipment (including vehicles) and other incremental costs directly attributable to the project.

In order to assess the anticipated return on the construction, references have been made to the returns on cost of the construction segment of comparable companies.

2. Valuation methods for buildings and structures

Description of valuation methods

The replacement cost method has been used to assess the buildings and structures in this valuation. The calculation formula is:

Net estimated value = net present value 6 replacement discount

rate

  1. Estimation of net present value

Net present value = total construction and installation costs

  • initial and other costs + cost of capital + return on development - deductible input tax

- V-4 -

APPENDIX V

BUSINESS VALUATION REPORT

  • Total construction and installation costs

Total construction and installation costs of the appraised buildings are determined by revising the budget using the budget data provided by the appraised entity and differences in materials, machinery, labour and other costs between the date of the budget and the benchmark date of the valuation.

  • Initial and other costs

They are calculated based on the relevant requirements of the national and local governments.

  • Cost of capital

Cost of capital is generally assessed based on the prevailing lending rates during the reasonable construction period of the whole construction project. The construction cost is taken into account as if it is invested on a straight-line basis. The interest-bearing period is half of the reasonable construction period.

  • Return on development

As the appraised buildings and structures are all owner-built, return on development is not considered in this valuation.

  • Deductible input tax

It is assessed depending on whether input taxes on the costs of construction and installation and the initial and other costs of the construction project are deductible, as well as the respective tax rates.

  1. Estimation of replacement discount rate

The replacement discount rate of the appraised buildings and structures is estimated as a whole by estimating all depreciation based on a study of the actual effective useful life and age of the buildings and structures as well as an on-site inspection of the buildings and structures in respect of their workmanship quality as well as the repair and maintenance of their main structures, exteriors, utilities and decoration, and by taking into account their actual use.

The buildings and structures are valued at approximately

RMB41,825,000.

- V-5 -

APPENDIX V

BUSINESS VALUATION REPORT

3. Valuation methods for equipment (including vehicles)

Description of valuation methods

The replacement cost method has been used to assess all equipment. The calculation formula is:

Net appraised value = net present value 6 replacement discount

rate

  1. Estimation of net present value
    • Estimation of net present value of machinery and equipment

Net present value = equipment purchase price + freight costs + equipment foundation costs + installation and commissioning costs + cost of capital + other costs

in which:

  1.

  1. Estimation of replacement discount rate
  • The replacement discount rate of machinery and equipment is estimated based on their remaining useful lives that reflect the economic and technological life of the equipment as a whole and by taking into account the characteristics and usage of the equipment.
    • The replacement discount rate of vehicles is estimated by the age limit method, the mileage method or the on-site grading method. Pursuant to the 2020 Latest Provisions on the Standards for Compulsory Retirement of Motor Vehicles ( 2020年最新機動車強制報廢標準規定》), age limits of small vehicles not for business use are canceled. Therefore, the replacement discount rate of vehicles for business use is the lowest of the values calculated by these three methods, while the replacement discount rate of vehicles not for business use is the lower of the mileage method and the on-site grading method.
  1. Other payables
    Included in other payables represented deferred income from government

grant of approximately RMB12,922,000.

Valuation methods for deferred income

The value of deferred income has been determined as the actual amount of liabilities incurred by the appraised entity on the benchmark date of the valuation.

The deferred income represents financial project subsidies granted by the local government. The inspection and acceptance procedures in respect of such subsidies have been completed. The appraised entity would amortise such balance over the concession period. Other than the potential tax payment arising from such deferred income, no actual amount of liabilities incurred and the deferred income (net of tax) is valued at nil.

PROPERTY VALUATION REPORT

The following is the text of a letter and valuation certificate prepared for the purpose of incorporation in this circular received from Asia-Pacific Consulting and Appraisal Limited, an independent valuer and consultant, in connection with its valuation as at 31 January 2021 of the property interests of the Disposal Company.

Dear Sirs,

Instructions, Purpose and Date of Valuation

Asia-Pacific Consulting and Appraisal Limited (''APA'' or ''we'') is instructed by New Concepts Holdings Limited (the ''Company'') to provide valuation service on one property located in Taiyuan, Shanxi Province of the People's Republic of China (the ''PRC'') for disclosure purpose. The property is held by Taiyuan Tianrun Bioenergy Co., Ltd (太原天潤 生物能源有限公司) (''Taiyuan Tianrun''), a limited liability company established in the PRC and indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. We confirm that we have carried out inspections, made relevant enquiries and searches and obtained such further information as we consider necessary for the purpose of providing our opinion of the market value of the property interests as at 31 January 2021 (the ''valuation date'').

Basis of Valuation

Our valuation of the property interests represents the market value which we would define as intended to mean ''the estimated amount for which a property should exchange on the date of valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm's-length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently, and without compulsion''.

- VI-1 -

APPENDIX VI

PROPERTY VALUATION REPORT

Methods of Valuation

Due to the nature of the buildings and structures of the property and the particular location in which they are situated, there are unlikely to be relevant market comparable sales comparables readily available, the buildings and structures of the property have been valued by the cost approach with reference to their depreciated replacement costs.

Depreciated replacement cost is defined as ''the current cost of replacing an asset with its modern equivalent asset less deductions for physical deterioration and all relevant forms of obsolescence and optimization.'' It is based on an estimate of the market value for the existing use of the land, plus the current cost of replacement of the improvements, less deduction for physical deterioration and all relevant forms of obsolescence and optimization. The depreciated replacement cost of the property interest is subject to adequate potential profitability of the concerned business. In our valuation, it applies to the whole of the complex or development as a unique interest, and no piecemeal transaction of the complex or development is assumed.

Valuation Assumptions

Our valuation has been made on the assumption that the seller sells the property interests in the market without the benefit of a deferred term contract, leaseback, joint venture, management agreement or any similar arrangement, which could serve to affect the value of the property interests.

No allowance has been made in our report for any charge, mortgage or amount owing on any of the property interests valued nor for any expense or taxation (including Land Appreciation Tax) which may be incurred in effecting a sale. Unless otherwise stated, it is assumed that the properties are free from encumbrances, restrictions and outgoings of an onerous nature, which could affect its value.

Valuation Standards

In valuing the property interests, we have complied with all requirements contained in Chapter 5 and Practice Note 12 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities issued by The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited; the RICS Valuation - Professional Standards published by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors; the HKIS Valuation Standards published by the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors; and the International Valuation Standards published by the International Valuation Standards Council.

Source of Information

We have relied to a very considerable extent on the information given by Taiyuan Tianrun and have accepted advice given to us on such matters as tenure and all other relevant matters. Dimensions and measurements are based on the copies of documents collected from the Taiyuan Tianrun and are therefore only approximations.

- VI-2 -

APPENDIX VI

PROPERTY VALUATION REPORT

We have no reason to doubt the truth and accuracy of the information provided to us by Taiyuan Tianrun. We have also been advised by Taiyuan Tianrun that no material factors have been omitted from the information to reach an informed view and we have had no reason to suspect that any material information has been withheld.

Document and Title Investigation

We have been shown copies of various title and legal documents relating to the property interests and have made relevant enquiries. However, we have not searched the original documents to verify the ownership or to ascertain any amendment. We have relied to a very considerable extent on the information given by the Taiyuan Tianrun, and have accepted advice given to us on such matters as tenure, planning approvals, statutory notices, easements, particulars of occupancy, lettings, and all other relevant matters.

We have no reason to doubt the truth and accuracy of the information provided to us by Taiyuan Tianrun. We have also sought confirmation from Taiyuan Tianrun that no material factors have been omitted from the information supplied. We consider that we have been provided with sufficient information to arrive an informed view, and we have no reason to suspect that any material information has been withheld.

Area Measurement and Inspection

We have not carried out detailed measurements to verify the correctness of the areas in respect of the properties but have assumed that the areas shown on the title documents and official site plans handed to us are correct. All documents and contracts have been used as reference only and all dimensions, measurements and areas are approximations. No on-site measurement has been taken.

We have inspected the exterior and, where possible, the interior of the properties. However, we have not carried out investigation to determine the suitability of the ground conditions and services for any development thereon. Our valuation has been prepared on the assumption that these aspects are satisfactory and that no unexpected cost and delay will be incurred during construction. Moreover, no structural survey has been made, but in the course of our inspection, we did not note any serious defect. We are not, however, able to report whether the properties are free of rot, infestation or any other structural defect. No tests were carried out on any of the services.

The site inspection was carried out on 2 March 2021 by Mr. David Cheng who is a member of Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyor and has over 21 years's experience in property valuation in the PRC and Ms. Maggie Wang who have 3 years's experience in property valuation in the PRC.

APPENDIX VI

PROPERTY VALUATION REPORT

  1. For the reason that the allocated land use right is owned by Taiyuan Environment and Hygiene Bureau, and the land title and building title are merged into the real estate certificate under the current management system, the subject of the certificate should be Taiyuan Environment and Hygiene Bureau, Taiyuan Tianrun Bioenergy Co., Ltd cannot make the application the titles of the buildings of the property.
  2. In the valuation of this property, we have attributed no commercial value to the property due to the allocated land nature of the property and lack of title certificates. However, for reference purpose, we are of the opinion that the depreciated replacement cost of the buildings and structures (excluding the land element) would be RMB42,000,000 as at the valuation date assuming all relevant title certificates have been obtained and they could be freely transferred.
