The Company was granted, at the time of its listing, waivers by the Stock Exchange from strict compliance with the announcement requirement under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules in respect of the transactions contemplated under each of the Framework Property Management Service Agreement and the Framework Decoration Service Agreement.

The Board expects that the existing annual caps under each of the Framework Property Management Service Agreement and the Framework Decoration Service Agreement for the three years ending December 31, 2019, 2020 and 2021 will be insufficient, and therefore the Board proposed to revise the relevant annual caps by entering into the Supplemental Framework Agreements.

    On November 28, 2019, the Company and ShengQuan Property Service entered into the Supplemental Framework Property Management Service Agreement to make revisions to the existing annual caps under the Framework Property Management Service Agreement for the three years ending December 31, 2019, 2020 and 2021. Save for the amendment to the existing annual caps, all other terms and conditions (including the pricing policy and basis) of the Framework Property Management Service Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

The revised annual caps under the Supplemental Framework Property Management Service Agreement in relation to the provision of pre-delivery property management services are determined with reference to a number of factors, including, among others, (i) the planned delivery schedule of the property projects, based on which it is expected that the number of property projects to be delivered by the Group will be around 15 in 2019, around 22 in 2020 and around 29 in 2021, respectively, for which the Group may engage ShengQuan Property Service for the pre-delivery property management services; (ii) the estimation that the total GFA under development and planned GFA for future development, for which the Group expects to complete the development during 2019 to 2021 according to the development schedule, will be increased by approximately 93% from 2018 to 2019, approximately 73% from 2019 to 2020 and approximately 26% from 2020 to 2021, respectively; and (iii) change of the Company's strategy to develop more fine decorated apartments and high end products to customers resulting in the increase of property management fee. As a result, the Group's expectation on the demand for such services by ShengQuan Property Service exceeds the initial expectation of the Group due to the rapid growth of the property development business of the Group.

The revised annual caps under the Supplemental Framework Property Management Service Agreement in relation to the provision of management and the related services to the display units, sales offices and common area of the Group's property projects are determined with reference to a number of factors, including, among others, (i) the number of current and projected new property projects of the Group which is expected to commence pre-sales

during 2019 to 2021 according to the development schedule; (ii) the total GFA of the relevant display units and sales office; (iii) geographical locations of the property projects;

  1. the expected length of pre-sales period of the property projects; (v) the human resources allocation to the relevant display units and sales offices; and (vi) the labor costs and material costs in the PRC which is expected to increase steadily in the next three years. The Company estimates that the number of current and projected new property projects of the Group which is expected to commence pre-sales will be around 43 in 2019, around 73 in 2020 (24 of which will be projected new property projects) and around 121 in 2021 (74 of which will be projected new property projects), respectively, according to the development schedule. Further, the Company estimates that the total GFA of the relevant display units and sales office of the Group's property projects in Zhejiang Province requiring management and the related services thereto will be increased by approximately 128% for the year of 2019 as compared to 2018, approximately 77% for the year of 2020 as compared to 2019, and approximately 104% for the year of 2021 as compared to 2020.

As a result, the increase of number of current and projected new property projects which is expected to commence pre-sale for the years ending December 31, 2019, 2020 and 2021 exceeds the initial expectation of the Group due to the rapid growth of the Group's property development business.

The Board confirms that the existing annual cap for the year ending 31 December 2019 under the Framework Property Management Service Agreement has not yet been exceeded as at the date of this announcement.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF ENTERING INTO THE SUPPLEMENTAL FRAMEWORK AGREEMENTS AND THE HUZHOU FRAMEWORK DECORATION SERVICE AGREEMENT

The Group is a leading comprehensive property developer based in Zhejiang Province in the PRC. The Company is of the view that the Supplemental Framework Agreements enable the Group to

  1. secure a stable source of the relevant services; and (b) have ShengQuan Property Service and Zhejiang Geya Decoration as stable suppliers of the relevant services in its ordinary course of business on normal commercial terms.

Supplemental Framework Property Management Service Agreement

Based on the established long-term cooperation relationship between ShengQuan Property Service and the Group, ShengQuan Property Service has a track record of providing reliable, efficient and satisfactory pre-delivery property management services to the Group. As compared to other service providers who are independent third parties, it generally maintains better and more efficient communication with the Group and more thorough understanding of the conditions of the property projects of the Group and its requirements of the services needed.

Supplemental Framework Decoration Service Agreement

Based on the established long-term cooperation relationship between Zhejiang Geya Decoration and the Group, Zhejiang Geya Decoration is reliable and co-operative supplier and has been able to meet the stringent demands of the Group for the decoration services provided by them to the Group. As compared to other service providers who are independent third parties, it generally maintains better and more efficient communication with the Group and more thorough understanding of the quality standard of the Group' s property projects and its requirements of the services needed.

Huzhou Framework Decoration Service Agreement

The Group does not engage in the provision of the decoration services and therefore the decoration and related services to properties of the Group have been provided by third-party service providers, such as Huzhou Geya.

Taking into account various factors such as credentials, fee quote, qualification, experience and quality of services, the Group plans to engage Huzhou Geya as the decoration service provider by entering into the Huzhou Framework Decoration Service Agreement. The Group intends to continue to adopt the above selection criteria for the engagement of decoration service providers.

Huzhou Geya is a professional decoration services firm which provides decoration and related services to the Group and other third party customers.

Huzhou Geya is a sister company of Zhejiang Geya Decoration, as both are controlled by Mr. Hu Yuegen, the brother of Mr. Hu Yiping. Due to difference in geographical locations, in respect of projects at located at Huzhou, the Group intends to engage Huzhou Geya instead of Zhejiang Geya Decoration for decoration and related services. As a result, the Group entered into the Huzhou Framework Decoration Service Agreement.

10

The terms of each of the Supplemental Framework Agreements and the Huzhou Framework Decoration Service Agreement are agreed upon after arm' s length negotiations between the Group and the relevant Services Providers.

The Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) consider that the terms of each of the Supplemental Framework Agreements and the revised annual caps for the year ending December 31, 2019 and the terms of the Huzhou Framework Decoration Service Agreement and the annual cap for the year ending December 31, 2019 are fair and reasonable and on normal commercial terms no less favourable to the Company than terms available to independent third parties of the Company and that the entering into of the Supplemental Framework Agreements and the Huzhou Framework Decoration Service Agreement is in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group and is in the best interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

The Directors (other than the independent non-executive Directors who will express their views after considering the advice from the Independent Financial Adviser) consider that the revised annual caps for the two years ending December 31, 2020 and 2021 under each of the Supplemental Framework Agreements and the annual caps for the two years ending December 31, 2020 and 2021 under the Huzhou Framework Decoration Service Agreement are fair and reasonable and on normal commercial terms, is in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group and is in the best interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

INTERNAL CONTROL PROCEDURES

In addition to the annual review by the auditors and independent non-executive Directors pursuant to the requirements of Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules, as part of the Group' s internal controls systems to ensure that the transactions between the Group and its connected persons are conducted in accordance with the pricing policy under the Framework Agreements (as supplemented by the Supplemental Framework Agreements), the Company will implement the following internal control arrangements:

  1. Before entering into individual transactions, the finance department and if applicable, certain other relevant departments of the Group will review the proposed terms of the individual transactions and discuss with the relevant departments of the Group to ensure that the individual transactions are conducted on normal commercial terms and in compliance with the pricing policies of the Group before the relevant departments approve the finalized transaction agreements according to their authority within the Group;
  2. The finance department of the Company is responsible for overseeing the connected transactions of the Group. The finance department of the Company will monitor and collect detailed information on the connected transactions on a regular basis, including but not limited to the implementation of pricing policies, payment arrangements and actual transaction amounts to ensure that the connected transactions are conducted in accordance with the Framework Agreements (as supplemented by the Supplemental Framework Agreements). In addition, the finance department of the Company is responsible for monitoring and reviewing the balance amount of the annual cap for the continuing connected transactions on a monthly basis. If the annual cap for the continuing connected transactions is expected to be exceeded for a particular year, the finance department of the Company will report to the management of the Company and take appropriate measures in accordance with the relevant requirements of the Listing Rules;

11

  1. The independent internal control consultant of the Company is responsible for performing regular assessment on the internal control procedures of the Group, including but not limited to the relevant information on the management of the continuing connected transactions; and
  2. The senior management of the Company is responsible for supervising and monitoring the adoption of internal control procedures of the Group, so as to ensure the implementation of pricing policies is in compliance with the Framework Agreements and the actual transaction amounts are controlled within its respective annual caps. The senior management of the Company also reviews the implementation of pricing policies and the monitoring of annual caps annually.

The Board is of the view that the above methods and procedures can ensure that the pricing and other contract terms for the Group' s continuing connected transactions are on normal commercial terms no less favourable to the Company than terms available to independent third parties of the Company, fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and its shareholders and that the continuing connected transactions are conducted as agreed in the relevant Framework Agreements (as supplemented by the Supplemental Framework Agreements) and in compliance with Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.
