According to the document issued by the Rongcheng County Hygiene and Health Bureau* (容城 縣衛生健康局) (the "Bureau") to the Rongcheng County Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital dated 17 December 2019 (the "Rongcheng County Health and Health Bureau Document"), in order to comprehensively improve the county's medical service level and effectively improve people's livelihood to provide solid medical and health service guarantee for the planning and construction of Xiong'an New District in accordance with the implementation plan of Rongcheng County People's Government [2019] No. 26 Rongcheng County's "Three-yearImprovement Project of Medical Service Capacity (2019-2021)"* (容城縣人民政府[2019]26號《容城縣"醫 療衛生服務能力三年提升工程(2019-2021)" 實施方案》), the Bureau requested the Hospital to cooperate with its designated Beijing medical and health department, and terminate the Hospital Management Agreements with Baoding Xinan.

The Company has sought legal advice from PRC legal adviser and was advised that the termination of the Hospital Management Agreements was due to changes in laws, regulations and related policies, and continuous performance of the parties pursuant to the Hospital Management Agreements will conflict with existing laws, regulations or policies.

The Company will also rely on the team of medical experts to actively seek opportunities and carry out relevant medical business.

The Company will pay close attention to the matter and make further announcement(s) as and when appropriate in accordance with the Listing Rules.

Shareholders and potential investors are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the shares of the Company.
