The Development Project, which involves the development of Parcel-1,Parcel-2 and Parcel-3, is in accordance with the existing urban planning of the Yulin Municipal Government, under which Parcel-1,Parcel-2 and Parcel-3 should be viewed as a whole and shall be developed integrally. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Yulin Municipal Government and Yulin Pharmaceutical had established a joint office to work on the relocation and demolition of the existing residential units on Parcel-2. It is expected that both Parcel-2 and Parcel-3 will be subject to land expropriation by the Yulin Municipal Government and be sold through the governmental procedure of bidding, auction and quotation regulated by applicable PRC laws and regulations.

The expected timeline of the relocation and demolition of the Project Land interweaves with the expected timeline of the Disposals. It is expected that Disposal-1 will be completed in around December 2019. The transfer registration of Parcel-1 from Yulin Pharmaceutical to the Project Company with the approval for the change of land use is expected to take place in about the first half of 2020, while the demolition of the existing old plants and the vacant possession delivery of Parcel-1 to the Project Company are expected to take place in about mid-2021, subject to the commencement of production in the northern part of the new plant area. Disposal-2 will be completed within five days from the completion of the said vacant possession delivery of Parcel-1 pursuant to the Supplemental Agreement. Disposal-3 will be completed within five days from the completion of the transfer registration of and the vacant possession delivery of Parcel-2 and Parcel-3 to the Project Company pursuant to the Supplemental Agreement, which is expected to take place in around 2023.

Currently, the Development Project is in the initial planning stage. The Project Company has initiated the application for its real estate development qualification, which is expected to be completed in around November 2019. At the same time, the Project Company is setting up its operation and management structure, as well as selecting appropriate staff for certain key positions such as chief engineer, deputy general manager of engineering, marketing director and financial director. An agent (the "Design Agent") has been engaged for the preliminary design and planning of the Development Project and such Design Agent has initially devised a conceptual plan (the "Conceptual Plan"). All the costs incurred in the course of the said

Following approval of the Conceptual Plan, the Development Project shall progress accordingly. It is expected that the Development Project will be completed step by step until around the end of 2026, taking into consideration the expected timeline of the relocation and demolition of the Project Land.

- 10 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Total Investment Return After Tax to be paid by Guangxi Huafa and Yulin Shunlang was agreed after arm's length negotiations among the parties with reference to the Group's main costs under the Development Project, which mainly include the book value of the major assets of Yulin Yunxiang of approximately RMB1,366,000 as at 31 December 2018 and the preliminary valuation of Parcel-1 of approximately RMB109,800,000 as at 31 May 2019, conducted by JLL, an independent valuer. The full text of the relevant valuation report is set out in Appendix II to this circular. In determining the Total Investment Return After Tax, the Board also considered the efforts that the Group has to make under the Development Project, mainly (i) providing the land development right of the Project Land to the Project Company; (ii) organising the demolition and relocation thereon; and (iii) procuring the Project Company to acquire the Project Land in accordance with the laws, where such efforts are difficult to be quantified in terms of money. Pursuant to the Cooperative Development Agreement, all the costs incurred in the course of effecting the change of land use, obtaining and transferring the land development right of the Project Land, organising the demolition and relocation work and procuring the Project Company to acquire the Project Land shall be borne by Guangxi Huafa and Yulin Shunlang and such costs are therefore irrelevant in determining the Total Investment Return After Tax.

On the grounds that (i) despite the difficulty in quantifying the efforts that the Group has to make in terms of money, the Total Investment Return After Tax of RMB700,000,000 is considerably higher than the Group's main costs under the Development Project that should be able to cover the land cost and the Group's efforts; (ii) the funds required and all the necessary technical support services to the Project Company for the development and construction in the Development Project, which include the acquisition cost of Parcel-2 and Parcel-3, shall be borne by Guangxi Huafa and Yulin Shunlang; and (iii) the expertise to develop and operate the Project Land is attribute to Guangxi Huafa and Yulin Shunlang, the Board is of the view that the Total Investment Return After Tax of RMB700,000,000 is of an amount enabling the Group to capture a favorable return from the Development Project, which is in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Notes:

According to the valuation report of Parcel-1 as set out in Appendix II to this circular, the total site area of Parcel-1 (including the area which is intended to be used in constructing public road instead of being developed in the Development Project) is approximately 85,549.59 sq.m., on which 21 industrial buildings with a total gross floor area of approximately 50,299.99 sq.m. and various structures (including plant area roads, boundary walls and landscaped facilities) erected.

(the "Rented Properties") and portion of the land parcel with a site area of approximately 4,446.20 sq.m. were rented to the Independent Third Parties for commercial purposes, while the remaining portion of Parcel-1 and buildings were occupied by Yulin Pharmaceutical for its own use for production, office and storage purposes. Pursuant to the lease agreements of the Rented Properties, the lease agreements will terminate when the Rented Properties are being expropriated for the purpose of town planning or construction. In such circumstances, the termination of the lease agreements will not be considered as a breach of such lease agreements and has no adverse effect to the Group.

It is anticipated that the Group will record a disposal gain of approximately RMB663 million, which is determined by reference to the difference between (i) the Total Investment Return After Tax to be received by Yulin Pharmaceutical under the Cooperative Development Agreement; and (ii) the aggregate of (aa) the net book value of Parcel-1 as at 31 December 2018 in the amount of approximately RMB34.5 million and (bb) the carrying value of Yulin Pharmaceutical's 100% equity interest in Yulin Yunxiang as at 31 December 2018 in the amount of RMB3 million(Note 1); while the amount of the said gain attributable to the Company will be approximately RMB482 million taking into account the Group's 72.69% equity interest in Yulin Pharmaceutical.

Note 1: The following sets out the reconciliation between the carrying value of Yulin Pharmaceutical's 100% equity interest in Yulin Yunxiang as at 31 December 2018 and the unaudited net asset value of Yulin Yunxiang as at 31 December 2018:

Based on the Total Investment Return After Tax and the audited consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2018, it is anticipated that as a result of the Disposals, the consolidated total assets of the Group will be increased by approximately RMB661 million to approximately RMB3,895 million and the consolidated total liabilities of the Group will be decreased by approximately RMB1.16 million to approximately RMB1,399 million.

Shareholders and potential investors should note that the above expectations are for illustrative purpose only and subject to audit. The actual accounting gain or loss in connection with the Disposals may be different from the above and will be determined based on the net book value of Parcel-1 and the carrying value of Yulin Pharmaceutical's equity interest in Yulin Yunxiang as at the respective completion dates of the Disposals.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

REASONS FOR AND BENEFIT OF THE COOPERATIVE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT

In line with "Relocation of Industries from City Urban Area to Industrial Parks (退城入 園)" implementation plan initiated by the Yulin Municipal Government, Yulin Pharmaceutical has gradually relocated the production lines in the existing old plants at the Project Land to the new plant area located in the Healthcare Industrial Park (健康產業園區) in Yulin City. Currently, the existing old plants are not yet demolished and the production lines in the existing old plants are still in normal operation. It is expected that the existing old plants (save for the Reserved Building which will remain on Parcel-1) will be demolished after the change of land use of Parcel-1 is completed. The new plant area is divided into the southern part and the northern part. Workshops in the southern part of the new plant area are already in operation and the medicine ingredient warehouse therein has also been completed. It is expected that the construction work of the northern part of the new plant area will be completed in around December 2019, the Good Manufacturing Practice Certification thereof will be obtained and the production therein will start in around June 2021. The Board is of the view that the relocation of the production lines will not adversely affect the business operation/production of the Group since (i) the relocation is carried out gradually and the production lines of different drugs in the new plant area are separately built, whereby the relocation of a specific production line will progress only after the construction of the relevant production line is completed in the new plant area; and (ii) the production capacity of each production line in the new plant area will be significantly increased and much more efficient than the existing old plants. With the said relocation, the Project Land can therefore be utilised in the Development Project. After preliminary analyses and test calculations, it is expected the Development Project may generate considerable return to Yulin Pharmaceutical, providing a solid source of funds for Yulin Pharmaceutical to satisfy the fund needed to construct facilities in the new plant area and upgrade existing products.

In light of the estimated gain that will be recorded by the Group as shown above and given that the nature of the Development Project is property development which is not in line with the principal businesses and long-term development of the Group, the Disposals, if materialises, represents a good opportunity for realisation of the Group's investment in the Development Project. It is intended to apply the proceeds of the Total Investment Return After Tax in the following manner:

  1. approximately RMB595 million (representing 85% of the proceeds of the Total Investment Return After Tax) will be applied for the construction of the new plant area (including but not limited to the erection and renovation of 15 buildings with a total gross floor area of approximately 300,000 sq.m., the establishment of automatic control system, the pipeline construction, the purchase and installation of facilities and equipment); and
  2. the remaining proceeds in the amount of approximately RMB105 million (representing 15% of the proceeds of the Total Investment Return After Tax) will be applied for the development, upgrading and clinical trial of Yulin Pharmaceutical's products (including but not limited to the external dosage form (hydrogel cataplasm) of "Zheng Gu Shui" (「正骨水」外用劑型(水凝膠巴布劑)) and the external dosage form (ointment) of "Shiduqing Capsule" (「濕毒清膠囊」外用劑型(軟膏)).

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The terms of the Cooperative Development Agreement were determined after arm's length negotiations between the parties thereto and the Directors are of the view that the terms of the Cooperative Development Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder on normal commercial terms and are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

Given that the Principal Agreement mainly outlines the parties' intent and broad terms of the Development Project and contains no specific terms regarding the Disposals save and except the payment of the Security Deposit and Disposal-1, the transactions contemplated under the Principal Agreement do not constitute any discloseable transaction for the Company as all the applicable percentage ratios (as defined in Rule 14.07 of the Listing Rules) are less than 5%.

Following the entering into of the Supplemental Agreement setting out the specific terms regarding the Disposals, as one or more than one of the applicable percentage ratios (as defined in Rule 14.07 of the Listing Rules) exceed 25% but are less than 75%, the Disposals contemplated under the Cooperative Development Agreement constitute major transaction for the Company, and are therefore subject to the reporting, announcement and shareholders' approval requirements pursuant to Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.

As it is intended that Parcel-2 and Parcel-3 will be acquired by the Project Company after Disposal-2, the Board is of the view that the acquisitions of Parcel-2 and Parcel-3 by the Project Company would not constitute a notifiable transaction and/or connected transaction under Chapters 14 and 14A of the Listing Rules given that Yulin Pharmaceutical will retain approximately 32.21% of the entire equity interests in the Project Company by then and the Project Company will thus cease to be a subsidiary of the Company. If there is any change of circumstance where a disclosure obligation arises under the Listing Rules, the Company will make further announcement(s) and comply with the applicable Listing Rules as and when appropriate.

To the best knowledge, information and belief of the Directors, after having made all reasonable enquiries, no Shareholder has a material interest in the Disposals and no Shareholder would be required to abstain from voting if the Company were to convene a general meeting to approve the Disposals. Pursuant to Rule 14.44 of the Listing Rules, a written shareholders' approval may be accepted in lieu of holding a general meeting. The Relevant Shareholders, being a closely allied group of the Shareholders holding in aggregate 450,623,078 Shares (representing approximately 52.05% of the total issued Shares having the right to attend and vote at a general meeting of the Company to approve the Disposals), have given written approval to the Disposals. Accordingly, no general meeting of the Company will be convened for the purpose of approving the Disposals.

  2. They are Directors.
  3. Central Success beneficially owns 197,324,000 Shares. The entire issued share capital of Central Success is owned by Aali Resources Limited, which is held by BOS Trustee Limited as a trustee of a discretionary trust, of which Mr. An is the founder.
  4. Double Grace is wholly owned by Ms. Li.
  5. Guidoz beneficially owns 110,050,000 Shares. The entire issued share capital of Guidoz Limited is legally and beneficially owned by Mr. Young Wai Po, Peter ("Mr. Young").

Mr. An, Ms. Li and Mr. Young had acted in concert with each other in controlling the management and operation of the principal operating subsidiary of the Group since 1 January 2002 before the listing of the shares in the Company on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange (the "Listing") by virtue of an acting in concert agreement dated 1 January 2002 (the "Acting in Concert Agreement"). On 11 March 2013, in preparation of the Listing, Mr. An, Ms. Li and Mr. Young further executed an acting in concert confirmation (the "Acting in Concert Confirmation"), whereby they confirmed their acting-in-concert arrangement in the past, as well as their intention to continue with such arrangement to consolidate their control of the Group until such agreement is terminated otherwise. Accordingly, Mr. An, Ms. Li and Mr. Young together with Central Success, Double Grace and Guidoz have been a group of controlling shareholders of the Group since the Listing on 19 December 2013. Although Mr. An, Ms. Li and Mr. Young entered into a deed of termination (the "Termination Deed") on 16 December 2016 to terminate the acting-in-concert arrangement under the Acting in Concert Agreement and the Acting in Concert Confirmation in hope of allowing themselves more discretion in exercising their respective Shareholders' rights, they decided not to proceed with the submission to obtain confirmation from the SFC that they are no longer acting in concert

- 19 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

pursuant to note 3 to the definition of "acting in concert" of the Takeovers Code and therefore Mr. An, Ms. Li and Mr. Young together with Central Success, Double Grace and Guidoz are still taken to be a concert party group for the purposes of the Takeovers Code. Despite the execution of the Termination Deed, the Relevant Shareholders had voted unanimously on shareholders' resolutions in which the Relevant Shareholders were not required to abstain from voting by the shares that they had exercised their respective shareholders' right to vote. Based on the above, the Relevant Shareholders constitute a closely allied group of the Shareholders.

RECOMMENDATION

Although no general meeting will be convened for approving the Cooperative Development Agreement, the Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) believe that the terms of the Cooperative Development Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder are on normal commercial terms, fair and reasonable and are in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, if a general meeting were to be convened by the Company, the Directors would have recommended the Shareholders to vote in favour of the entering into of the Cooperative Development Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder.

GENERAL

As the completion of the Disposals is subject to the fulfillment of the terms of the Cooperative Development Agreement, the Disposals may or may not proceed. Shareholders and potential investors of the Company are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the shares of the Company.

Your attention is drawn to the additional information set out in the appendixes to this

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 Jones Lang LaSalle Corporate Appraisal and Advisory Limited, an independent valuer, in connection with its valuation as at 31 August 2019 of the property interest held by the Group.

Hong Kong

Dear Sirs,

In accordance with your instructions to value a property interest held by Guangxi Yulin Pharmaceutical Group Co., Ltd. ("Yulin Pharmaceutical"), an indirect non wholly-owned subsidiary of Consun Pharmaceutical Group Limited (hereinafter together referred to as the "Group") in the People's Republic of China (the "PRC"), 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 you with our opinion of the market value of the property interest as at 31 August 2019 (the "valuation date").

Our valuation is carried out on a market value basis. Market value is defined as "the estimated amount for which an asset or liability should exchange on the valuation date between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm's-length transaction after proper marketing and where the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion".

We have valued the property by the income approach by taking into account the rental income of the property derived from the existing leases and/or achievable in the existing market with due allowance for the reversionary income potential of the leases, which have been then capitalized to determine the market value at an appropriate capitalization rate.

Our valuation has been made on the assumption that the seller sells the property interest 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 interest.

- II-1 -

APPENDIX II

PROPERTY VALUATION REPORT

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

In valuing the property interest, 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 - Global Standards 2017 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.

We have relied to a very considerable extent on the information given by the Group 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 been shown copies of various title documents including State-owned Land Use Rights Certificate, Building Ownership Certificates and other official plans relating to the property interest and have made relevant enquiries. Where possible, we have examined the original documents to verify the existing title to the property interest in the PRC and any material encumbrance that might be attached to the property interest or any tenancy amendment. We have relied considerably on the advice given by the Group's PRC legal advisers - Guangdong Kingbridge Law Firm, concerning the validity of the property interest in the PRC.

We have not carried out detailed measurements to verify the correctness of the areas in respect of the property 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 property. 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. 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 property is free of rot, infestation or any other structural defect. No tests were carried out on any of the services.

Inspection of the property was carried out in June 2019 by Mr. Legend Zhan, Mr. Devon Yan and Mr. Ross Tan. They have more than 3 years' experience in the valuation of properties in the PRC and possess academic background in subjects relating to real estate valuation.

- II-2 -

APPENDIX II

PROPERTY VALUATION REPORT

We have had no reason to doubt the truth and accuracy of the information provided to us by the Group. We have also sought confirmation from the Group 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.

Unless otherwise stated, all monetary figures stated in this report are in Renminbi (RMB).

Our valuation certificate is attached below for your attention.

Yours faithfully,

For and on behalf of

  2. According to 4 tenancy agreements, portions of the property with a total gross floor area of approximately 1,660.00 sq.m. and portion of the land parcel with a site area of approximately 4,446.20 sq.m were rented to third parties with the latest tenancy expiring on 31 December 2019. The total monthly rent as at the valuation date was RMB102,152, exclusive of management fees, water and electricity charges and other outgoings.
  3. Our valuation has been made on the following basis and analysis:
    1. In undertaking our valuation, we have considered the actual rents in the existing tenancy agreements and also compared with similar developments which are located in the similar areas as the industrial properties of the subject property, for the calculation of market rent in considering (1) the reversionary rental income after the expiry of the existing leases for the leased area mentioned in note 4, and (2) the rental income of remaining area;
    2. The unit rent of these comparable industrial properties range from RMB0.33 to RMB0.47 per sq.m. per day; and
