Fule's subsidiary also held approximately 2.89% of the existing issued share capital of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date.

Save as disclosed above, there are no further past or existing relationship (including financial, business or other) or transactions between Fule (and its connected persons) and the Group.

- 8 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Upon Completion of the Subscription, Fule will become a substantial shareholder of the Company, and any transactions subsisting as at the date of Completion shall become connected transactions or continuing connected transactions between the Group and Fule. The Company shall comply with the requirements under Chapter 14A, including making necessary announcements promptly upon the completion of the Subscription.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company was still in negotiation with Fule on arrangements after completion of the Subscription, but the Company understands from Fule that, subject to the applicable laws, rules and regulations including the articles of association of the Company, it intends to nominate one to two directors to the board of the Company. Based on current discussions with Fule, Fule is currently expected to be a passive investor of the Company, but the Company does not rule out further strategic cooperation with Fule. Whilst the Company will consider any constructive cooperation with Fule, there is no concrete proposal with respect to such cooperation as at the Latest Practicable Date.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE ISSUE OF THE SUBSCRIPTION SHARES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

The Group is of the view that the Subscription will (1) strengthen the Group's working capital; (2) further optimise the Group's capital structure; and (3) substantially strengthen the Company's shareholders base. Upon completion of the Subscription and to the best of the Company's knowledge, information and belief, the Subscription is not expected to impact on the existing business of the Company and the Company does not have any plans to dispose of or downsize its existing business and/or introduce new businesses into the Group.

Accordingly, the Directors consider that the terms of the Subscription Agreement including the Subscription Price are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

The aggregate Subscription Price for all 618,490,566 Subscription Shares shall be settled by Fule at Completion by way of set off against the Fule Liabilities owed by the Group to Fule. Accordingly, there will be no proceeds from the Subscription.

THE LOAN AGREEMENT AND THE USE OF ITS PROCEEDS

The Loan Agreement

The Loan Agreement was entered into on 17 July 2020 pursuant to which Fule had agreed to lend to Mianyang Tongxin Copper Co., Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, a loan in the principal amount of up to RMB298 million at an interest rate of 8% per annum. The maturity date of the Loan Agreement shall be 1 year from the respective drawdown date. There were no security or guarantee arrangement in respect of the Loan Agreement.

As at 28 July 2020, the Company has drawn down approximately RMB57,000,000 from the Loan Agreement, which has now been used for general working capital. The full sum is expected to be drawn down according to the schedule of the maturity dates of the Existing Indebtedness, and is expected to be drawn down by tranches before (i) the completion of the Subscription; and (ii) 30 September 2020, whichever is earlier.

- 9 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

In negotiating the arrangement with Fule, the Company had decided to opt for the Loan Agreement given the Loan Agreement is not subject to shareholders' approval, whereas the Subscription will, amongst others, require a Specific Mandate. Accordingly, proceeding with the Loan Agreement first, followed by a Subscription Agreement will allow the Company to receive the proceeds from Fule first in order to meet the upcoming maturity dates of the Existing Indebtedness of the Group. For further details of the Existing Indebtedness, please refer to the paragraphs under ''Use of proceeds of the Loan Agreement''.

In addition, the Loan Agreement is not conditional on the Subscription. If the Subscription is not approved in the EGM, the arrangement under the Loan Agreement shall carry on and will become another indebtedness of the Group which should be repaid upon its maturity.

On the above basis, the Company is of the view that using the loan proceeds to repay the Existing Indebtedness, instead of directly applying the proceeds from the Subscription to repay such Existing Indebtedness is in the interests of the Company and its shareholders as whole.

Use of proceeds of the Loan Agreement

The net proceeds for the loan advanced pursuant the Loan Agreement are intended to be used, including but not limited to, to repay the Existing Indebtedness of the Group and general working capital of the Group. The Company intended to use the net proceeds principally for repaying the Existing Indebtedness of the Group; and if any of the term of such Existing Indebtedness is extended before its maturity, such remainder of the proceeds shall be used as to the Group's general working capital.

With respect to the Existing Indebtedness, it is intended that the net proceeds of the loan will be utilised to discharge the following Existing Indebtedness:
