APPENDIX III

CAPITAL REPLENISHMENT PLAN

OF BANK OF TIANJIN (2021-2025)

In order to meet the requirements under the capital regulatory policies and the macro-prudential management policies, to maintain high level of capital quality and capital adequacy, and to effectively promote steady business development, the Bank formulated the Capital Replenishment Plan of Bank of Tianjin Co., Ltd. (2021 - 2025) in accordance with its strategic planning.

  1. Capital Management Strategy

The Bank will further improve its long-term capital replenishment mechanism of "focusing on internal capital accumulation with external financing as supplement", strengthen capital management, establish a scientific and reasonable capital structure covering all potential risks. The Bank will also continue to optimise resource allocation to ensure steady business development and to maximise value for its Shareholders.

  1. Capital Planning Objectives

First, the Bank will, pursuant to relevant regulatory requirements, ensure that the core tier one capital adequacy ratio is no less than 7.5%, tier one capital adequacy ratio is no less than 8.5% and capital adequacy ratio is no less than 10.5%, at any point of time.

Second, the Bank will strive to keep our capital adequacy ratio basically on par with the average capital adequacy ratio of city commercial banks all over China in order to maintain higher regulatory rating and obtain policy support for operation and development.

  1. Establishment of Long-term Capital Replenishment Mechanism
    1. Effectively enhance internal capital accumulation. By the measures of: (1) optimising income structure and boosting profitability and cost efficiency, as well as increasing capital return to ensure the sustainable growth of endogenous capital; (2) adjusting and optimising its business structure of on and off-balance sheet assets, accelerating the transformation of business structure, developing asset management, investment banking and other light assets businesses, reducing occupancy of low-efficient and inefficient capital to realise capital saving and release; (3) focusing on its risk management and control capabilities, ensuring a relatively sufficient level of provision, to increase capital supplement while improving risk resistance capacity; (4) formulating reasonable dividend payment plan and profit distribution plan and appropriately increasing the proportion of retained earnings, the Bank will replenish capital chiefly by internal capital accumulation, so as to further improve capital structure and enhance the capital quality and capital strength under the premise that Shareholders' interest is assured. Then, our source of capital replenishment will become more sustainable.

APPENDIX III

CAPITAL REPLENISHMENT PLAN

OF BANK OF TIANJIN (2021-2025)

  1. Proactively expand external capital replenishment channels. The Bank will actively promote private placement, and deepen research and innovation in related businesses of tier-one capital instrument and qualified tier-two capital instrument. Besides, we will comprehensively consider various factors, including regulatory policies, market environment and financing cost to replenish capital via introducing strategic investors, share allotment, private placement, issuance of capital bonds without fixed terms, issuance of preference shares, issuance of qualified tier-two capital instruments, and other external capital replenishment channels in a timely manner.
  2. Optimise capital management and improve efficiency of capital utilisation. Through adhering to the rational development model under capital constraints, the Bank will strengthen operation and management concepts of capital occupancy, scale of capital constraint, and capital coverage on risks, to continuously improve its economic capital management system. The Bank will incorporate economic capital costs into its performance appraisal system to strengthen capital constraints and improve the efficiency of capital utilisation, thus realising the optimal allocation of resources.
  3. Strengthening the tracking and monitoring procedures of capital adequacy. The Bank will improve the procedures to evaluate capital adequacy ratio, and set up and perfect the framework, process and management scheme of evaluation, as well as strengthen monitoring on capital adequacy, thereby adjust our operational plans accordingly so as to constrain the increase of risk assets. We will also start capital replenishments timely to ensure reasonable level of capital adequacy for effective coverage of capital on various major risks assumed by the Bank in our business activities.
  4. Improve investor management and keep optimising equity structure. The Bank will strictly follow the Hong Kong Listing Rules, enhance the level of information disclosure, improve financial transparency, reinforce investor relations management and seek long-term support from Shareholders in capital operation. Considering both the strategies and development direction of the Bank, we will actively introduce strategic investors who can bring us operational vitality, market resources and guarantee of equity stability, as we keep optimising the equity structure.

IV. Capital Replenishment Plan

The Bank will replenish its capital in compliance with regulatory standards and with reference to the average capital adequacy of other commercial banks, continuously optimise our capital structure and strengthen risk prevention capacity to keep the capital adequacy ratio up to the capital regulatory standards and effectively promote the steady development of business.

APPENDIX III

CAPITAL REPLENISHMENT PLAN

OF BANK OF TIANJIN (2021-2025)

1. Internal capital accumulation

We will further adjust income structure, boost profitability, optimise profit distribution policy and enhance cost efficiency, so as to effectively ramp up the ability of internal accumulation and ensure the sustainable retained earnings for replenishment of endogenous capital. We will strive to replenish approximately RMB10 billion capital through internal accumulation during the five-year period from 2021 to late 2025.

2. External capital replenishment

First, given that our adequacy ratio of tier-1 capital after 2021 is expected to be near the regulatory bottom line of 8.5%, the Bank will actively seek for potential strategic investors and propose to replenish approximately RMB10 billion for its core tier-1 capital through private placement. We will deepen research and innovation in other tier-1 capital instruments, including but not limited to issuance of capital bonds without a fixed term and preference shares, etc., to provide more options for capital replenishment and keep the capital adequacy ratio up to the capital regulatory standards.

Second, from 2022 to 2023, the Bank will face intensive redemption of tier-2 capital instruments due to maturity and early redemption, resulting in a gap in the Bank's tier-2 capital. As such, new tier-2 capital instrument is urgently needed. From 2021 to 2025, the Bank will issue qualified tier-2 capital instrument of not more than RMB30 billion (inclusive) as appropriate in several tranches.
