Application has been made by the Company to the Stock Exchange for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Shares in issue and to be issued pursuant to (i) the Capitalisation Issue, (ii) the Share Offer, (iii) the exercise of the Over-allotment Option and (iv) the exercise of the options which may be granted under the Share Option Scheme. Assuming that the Share Offer becomes unconditional in all respects at or before 8:00 a.m. in Hong Kong on Friday, 18 October 2019, it is expected that dealings in the Shares on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange will commence at 9:00 a.m. on Friday, 18 October 2019.

The Share Offer comprises the Public Offer of initially 20,000,000 Shares (subject to reallocation), representing 10% of the total number of Offer Shares initially available under the Share Offer and the Placing of initially 180,000,000 Shares (subject to reallocation and the Over-allotment Option), representing 90% of the total number of Offer Shares initially available under the Share Offer. The allocation of the Offer Shares between the Public Offer and the Placing will be subject to adjustment as described in the section headed "Structure and Conditions of the Share Offer" in the Prospectus.

In particular, the Joint Bookrunners (for themselves and on behalf of the Underwriters) may reallocate Offer Shares from the Placing to the Public Offer to satisfy valid applications under the Public Offer. In accordance with the Guidance Letter HKEx-GL91-18 issued by the Stock Exchange, if such reallocation is done other than pursuant to Practice Note 18 of the Listing Rules, the maximum total number of Offer Shares that may be reallocated to the Public Offer following such reallocation shall be not more than double the initial allocation to the Public Offer (i.e. 40,000,000 Offer Shares) and the final Offer Price shall be fixed at the low-end of the indicative Offer Price range (i.e. HK$0.625 per Offer Share) stated in the Prospectus.

In connection with the Share Offer and pursuant to the Placing Underwriting Agreement, the Company is expected to grant to the Joint Bookrunners (for themselves and on behalf of the Placing Underwriters) the Over-allotment Option exercisable at any time within 30 days from the last day for the lodging of applications under the Public Offer (the last day for the exercise of the Over-allotment Option being Thursday, 7 November 2019), to require the Company to allot and issue up to an aggregate of 30,000,000 additional Offer Shares, representing approximately 15% of the initial Offer Shares available under the Share Offer, at the Offer Price to cover, among other things, over-allocation in the Placing, if any. In the event the Over-allotment Option is exercised, an announcement will be made by the Company on the Company's website at www.chittathk.comand the website of the Stock Exchange at www.hkexnews.hk.
