DISCLAIMER - INTENDED ADDRESSEES

This announcement does not constitute an offer of any securities for sale. No
action has been taken in any jurisdiction to permit a public offering of the
Securities where such action is required. The offer and sale of the Securities
may be restricted by law in certain jurisdictions.

The Securities and any ordinary shares which may be delivered upon conversion
of the Securities have not been and will not be registered under the U.S.
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") or with any
securities regulatory authority of any state or other jurisdiction of the
United States, and the Securities and any ordinary shares which may be
delivered upon conversion of the Securities are subject to U.S. tax law
requirements. Subject to certain exceptions, the Securities and any ordinary
shares which may be delivered upon conversion of the Securities may not be
offered or sold to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons (as defined
in Regulation S under the Securities Act).

The Securities are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made
available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to
any retail investor in the United Kingdom (the "UK"). For these purposes, a
retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client,
as defined in point (8) of Article 2 of Regulation (EU) No 2017/565 as it
forms part of domestic law of the UK by virtue of the European Union
(Withdrawal) Act 2018 (the "EUWA"); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of
the provisions of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the "FSMA") and
any rules or regulations made under the FSMA to implement Directive (EU)
2016/97, where that customer would not qualify as a professional client, as
defined in point (8) of Article 2(1) of Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as it
forms part of the domestic law of the UK by virtue of the EUWA. Consequently,
no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 as it
forms part of the domestic law of the UK by virtue of the EUWA (the "UK PRIIPs
Regulation") for offering or selling the Securities or otherwise making them
available to retail investors in the UK has been prepared and therefore
offering or selling the Securities or otherwise making them available to any
retail investor in the UK may be unlawful under the UK PRIIPs Regulation. In
addition to the foregoing, pursuant to the UK Financial Conduct Authority
Conduct of Business Sourcebook ("COBS") the Securities are not intended to be
offered, sold or otherwise made available and should not be offered, sold or
otherwise made available to retail clients (as defined in COBS 3.4) in the UK.

The Securities are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made
available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to
any retail investor in the European Economic Area (the "EEA"). For these
purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a
retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU
(as amended, "EU MiFID II"); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of
Directive (EU) 2016/97 as amended or superseded, where that customer would not
qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of
EU MiFID II. Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation
(EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the "EU PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or
selling the Securities or otherwise making them available to retail investors
in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Securities
or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be
unlawful under the EU PRIIPs Regulation.

The Securities are not intended to be initially placed and may not be
initially placed to "connected persons" of the Company under the Rules
Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong
Limited.

The distribution of this announcement in certain jurisdictions may be
restricted by law. Persons into whose possession this announcement comes are
required to inform themselves about and to observe any such restrictions.

Your right to access this service is conditional upon complying with the above
requirement.
