    The Audit Committee's Meeting No. 5/2017 held on October 9, 2017 considered the matters and was of the opinion that the supply and installation of interior decoration work of the Subleased Area between HHT and K.V.S.A is reasonable and highly beneficial to the Company for the following reasons: (1) to reduce HHT's operation cost; since HHT was engaged as the contractor for the construction of the bare shell of the Subleased Area, the supply and installation of interior decoration work of the same Subleased Area could help HHT to control the operation cost and expenses of the project efficiently; (2) to mitigate the burden and financial risk of HHT; the agreement for the supply and installation of interior decoration work of the Subleased Area provides favorable terms and conditions to HHT, for example, a shorter term of payment, exemptions of the advance payment bond and performance bond, etc.; and (3) the consideration is a fair rate, comparable with the market price.

The Board of Directors' Meeting No. 8/2017 held on October 9, 2017 has considered the opinion of the Audit Committee and resolved to ratify the entry into the agreement for the supply and installation of interior decoration work of the Subleased Area and viewed that such transaction is beneficial and increases the opportunity for HHT to generate revenue and profit. When comparing with the interior decoration works of other projects, HHT can also experience more flexibility in managing the operation costs. Moreover, this transaction is in accordance with the general commercial terms and the market price comparable to those offered to third parties (Arm's Length Basis).
