The Company hereby announces that the board of the Company (the "Board") has approved and adopted a dividend policy (the "Dividend Policy") on 20 December 2019. Under the Dividend Policy, provided the Group is profitable and without affecting the normal operations of the Group, the Company may consider to declare and pay dividends to the shareholders of the Company (the "Shareholders").

There can be no assurance by the Company that a divided will be proposed or declared in any specific periods. The payment of the dividend by the Company under the Dividend Policy shall remain to be determined at the sole discretion of the Board, subject to any other circumstances that Shareholders' approval is required, and any restrictions under all applicable laws, rules and regulations including but not limited to the Companies Law of the Cayman Islands, the Listing Rules, and the Articles of Association of the Company.

Depending on the financial conditions of the Group and the conditions and factors as set out above, dividends may be proposed and/or declared by the Board for a financial year or period as interim dividend, final dividend, special dividend and any distribution of net profits that appear to the Board to be justified by the profits of the Company available for distribution.
