LAPSE OF THE EXCHANGE OFFER AND CONSENT SOLICITATION RELATING TO THE OUTSTANDING 6.5% SENIOR NOTES DUE 2021

Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 25 November 2021 (the "Announcement") in relation to the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation. Capitalised terms in this announcement have the same meaning as those in the Announcement.

The Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation expired at 4:00 p.m., London time, on 2 December 2021. As of the Expiration Deadline, the Company received valid tenders of the Existing Notes of less than the Minimum Acceptance Amount. As the Minimum Acceptance Amount is a condition to the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation, which has not been met, the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation will not proceed and shall lapse automatically.

The Existing Notes will mature on 7 December 2021. As of the date of this announcement, US$400,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Existing Notes remain outstanding. The Company has been in discussions with representatives of certain holders of the Existing Notes. As at the date of this announcement, no legally binding agreement has been entered into. To ease the current liquidity issue and reach an optimal solution for all stakeholders, the Company is assessing and is closely monitoring the financial condition and cash position of the Group. It will explore feasible solutions (including but not limited to renewal and extension of borrowings and disposing of assets). There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to meet the repayment obligations under the Existing Notes at maturity. If the Company is unable to repay the Existing Notes at its maturity or agree with its holders on alternative arrangements, it would have a material adverse effect on the Group's financial condition.

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. This announcement is provided to you because you are a non-U.S. person outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S.
