Pursuant to the indenture (the "Indenture") governing the 2022 Notes, a principal amount of US$22,500,000 (the "Relevant Principal Amount") of the 2022 Notes, together with accrued interest, was due, though not paid, on 16 April 2021, which constituted an event of default under the Indenture. The payment of the Relevant Principal Amount (together with accrued interest and default interest) was made on 4 May 2021 and pursuant to which the Company has satisfied its payment obligation under the Indenture.

OTHER YIDA LOANS

References are made to the announcements of the Company dated 10 April 2019, 22 April 2019, 10 June 2019, 23 February 2020 and 23 April 2020, the interim report of the Company for the six months ended 30 June 2019, the annual report of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2019, the interim report of the Company for the six months ended 30 June 2020 and the annual results announcement and the annual report of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2020 (collectively, the "Previous Disclosure") in relation to the other Yida Loans. Unless other defined herein, defined terms used herein shall have the same meanings as ascribed in the Previous Disclosure.

As of the date of this announcement, the certain other Yida Loans are immediately repayable if requested by the lenders. The non-repayment of the Relevant Principal Amount did not lead to any additional borrowings becoming immediately repayable if requested by the lenders except for 2022 Notes. Thus, there is no material change to the position as a result of the non-payment of the Relevant Principal Amount under the 2022 Notes.

As at the date of this announcement, no relevant lender had demand for immediate repayment of the other Yida Loans. The operation of the Group, including its pre-sale and receivables collection, remains normal.

Save as disclosed above, the Board is not aware of any information which must be announced to avoid a false market in the Company's securities or of any inside information that needs to be disclosed under the Inside Information Provisions (as defined in the Listing Rules) of Part XIVA of the SFO as at the date of this announcement.
