    1. NOTICES OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING AND H SHARES CLASS MEETING

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

2. PROPOSED GRANT OF ISSUE MANDATE

In order to ensure flexibility when it is desirable to allot additional Shares, the Directors will seek the approval of the Shareholders to grant the Issue Mandate at the AGM.

The Company has in issue an aggregate of 317,121,560 Domestic Shares and 202,400,000 H Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date. Special resolution no. 1 as set out in the AGM Notice (the ''Special Resolution No. 1'') will be proposed at the AGM, namely (i) to grant to the Directors an Issue Mandate to issue, allot and deal with additional Shares up to a maximum of 63,424,312 Domestic Shares and 40,480,000 H Shares, representing 20% of the aggregate nominal amount of the issued share capital of the Company of that class as at the date of passing of the Special Resolution No. 1 on the basis that no further Shares will be issued or repurchased by the Company prior to the AGM; and

  1. to increase the number of existing share capital of the Company up to a maximum of 20% of the aggregate nominal amount of share capital of the Company which the Directors may issue under the Issue Mandate if given in the Special Resolution No. 1 as at the date of passing of the Special Resolution No. 1.

3. PROPOSED GRANT OF REPURCHASE MANDATE

The Company Law, the Mandatory Provisions and the Articles of Association provide for certain restrictions on share repurchase which are applicable to all classes of Shares of the Company.

The Company Law (to which the Company is subject to) provides that a joint stock limited company incorporated in the PRC may not repurchase its shares unless such repurchase is effected for the purpose of (a) reducing its registered capital; (b) in connection with a merger between itself and another entity that holds its shares; (c) granting shares as reward to the staff of the company; or (d) the repurchase is made at the request of its shareholders who disagrees with shareholders' resolutions in connection with a merger or division. The Mandatory Provisions, which the Company has incorporated into the Articles of Association, provide that subject to obtaining the approval of the relevant PRC regulatory authorities and in compliance with the Articles of Association, the Company may repurchase its issued Shares for the purpose of reducing its share capital or in connection with a merger between itself and another entity that holds its Shares or in circumstances permitted by laws or administrative regulations.

The Listing Rules permit the shareholders of a PRC joint stock limited company to grant a general mandate to its directors to repurchase shares of such company that is listed on the Stock Exchange. Such mandate is required to be given by way of a special resolution passed by its shareholders in general meeting and special resolutions passed by holders of domestic shares and holders of overseas listed foreign shares at separate meetings.

H Shares are traded on the Stock Exchange in Hong Kong dollars. Therefore, the repurchase of H Shares by the Company is subject to the approval of the SAFE (or its successor authority), and the price payable by the Company upon any repurchase of H Shares will be paid in Hong Kong dollars.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

In accordance with the requirements of the Articles of Association applicable to capital reduction, the Company will have to notify its creditors of the passing of the resolution for the reduction of the registered capital of the Company. In addition, the Company Law provides that the shares repurchased by a company will have to be cancelled and the registered capital of that company will therefore be reduced by an amount equivalent to the aggregate nominal value of the shares so cancelled. In the event of a reduction of registered capital, the Company shall inform its creditors by way of written notice and announcement within a prescribed period after the passing of the relevant resolutions approving such reduction. The creditors shall be entitled to request the Company for repayment of loan and/or provision of guarantee. The statutory notification requirement allows the creditors an opportunity for the recovery and/or security of the debt (in particular for those unsecured debts) where the Company's registered capital is to be reduced.

Conditions to repurchase of H Shares

In order to ensure flexibility and discretion to the Directors in the event that it becomes desirable to repurchase any H Shares (including where such repurchase may lead to an enhancement of the net asset value per Share and/or the earnings per Share), approval is proposed to be sought from the Shareholders for the grant of the Repurchase Mandate to the Directors. In accordance with the legal and regulatory requirements described above, the Directors give notices to convene the AGM and the Class Meetings. At each such meeting, a special resolution will be proposed to grant to the Directors the Repurchase Mandate, i.e. a conditional general mandate to repurchase H Shares in issue on the Stock Exchange with an aggregate nominal value not exceeding 10% of the aggregate nominal value of H Shares in issue of the Company as at the date of passing of such special resolution.

The Repurchase Mandate will be conditional upon (a) the special resolution for approving the grant of the Repurchase Mandate being passed at each of the AGM and the Class Meetings; and (b) the approvals of SAFE (or its successor authority) and/or any other regulatory authorities as may be required by the laws, rules and regulations of the PRC being obtained by the Company if appropriate. If the above conditions are not fulfilled, the Repurchase Mandate will not be exercisable by the Directors.

- 6 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Repurchase Mandate would expire on the earlier of (a) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; or (b) the expiration of a period of twelve months following the passing of the relevant resolution at the AGM and the Class Meetings; or (c) the date on which the authority conferred by the special resolution is revoked or varied by a special resolution of the Shareholders in a general meeting or by a special resolution of holders of H Shares or holders of Domestic Shares at their respective class meetings.

The H Shares which may be repurchased by the Company pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate shall not exceed 10% of the aggregate nominal value of H Shares in issue of the Company as at the date of passing of the resolution approving the Repurchase Mandate at the AGM and the Class Meetings.

An explanatory statement giving certain information regarding the Repurchase Mandate is set out in the Appendix to this circular.

4. AGM AND H SHARES CLASS MEETING

The AGM and the H Shares Class Meeting will be held on Monday, 7 June 2021 at the conference room of the Company at No. 36, Bei San Dong Road, Shihezi Economic and Technological Development Zone, Shihezi, Xinjiang, the PRC.

The notices convening the AGM and the H Shares Class Meeting at which the resolutions mentioned above will be proposed are set out on pages 12 to 21 of this circular.

Each Shareholder who has the right to attend and vote at the AGM and the H Shares Class Meeting, is entitled to appoint one or more proxies, whether they are Shareholders or not, to attend and vote on his behalf at the AGM and the H Shares Class Meeting. Forms of proxy for use by the Shareholders at the AGM and the H Shares Class Meeting are enclosed.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

5. VOTING BY WAY OF POLL

Pursuant to Rule 13.39(4) of the Listing Rules, save for certain procedural or administrative matter to be decided by the chairman of the meeting, all votes of the Shareholders at the general meetings will be taken by poll. Accordingly, the chairman of the AGM and H Shares Class Meeting will therefore demand a poll for every resolution to be put to the vote at the AGM and H Shares Class Meeting pursuant to the Articles of Association.

6. CLOSURE OF REGISTER OF MEMBERS

For the purpose of the AGM and the H Shares Class Meeting, the register of the members of the Company will be closed from Monday, 31 May 2021 to Monday, 7 June 2021 (both days inclusive), during which no transfer of shares will be registered.

This circular includes particulars given in compliance with the Listing Rules for the purpose of giving information with regard to the Company. The Directors collectively and individually accept full responsibility for the accuracy of the information contained in this circular and confirm, having made all reasonable enquiries that to the best of their knowledge and belief, there are no other facts the omission of which would make any statement in this circular misleading.

APPENDIX

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by the Listing Rules, to provide the requisite information to enable you to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the special resolution to approve the grant of the Repurchase Mandate to the Directors.

LISTING RULES RELATING TO THE REPURCHASE OF SECURITIES

The Listing Rules permit companies whose primary listing is on the Stock Exchange to repurchase their securities on the Stock Exchange subject to certain restrictions, the most important of which are summarized below. The Company is empowered by the Articles of Association to repurchase its own securities.

SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the registered share capital of the Company was RMB519,521,560 comprising 317,121,560 Domestic Shares and 202,400,000 H Shares. Subject to the passing of the proposed resolution for the grant of the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no H Shares will be allotted and issued or repurchased by the Company on or prior to the date of the AGM and the Class Meetings, the Company will be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase a maximum of 20,240,000 H Shares, being the maximum of 10% of the total H Shares in issue as at the date of passing the relevant resolution.

REASONS FOR THE REPURCHASE

The Directors believe that the Repurchase Mandate is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders. An exercise of the Repurchase Mandate may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value per Share and/or earnings per Share and will only be made if the Directors believe that such repurchases will benefit the Company and its Shareholders.

FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

In repurchasing its H Shares, the Company may only apply funds from the Company's internal resources legally available for such purpose in accordance with the Articles of Association, the Listing Rules and the applicable laws, rules and regulations of the PRC, including but not limited to surplus funds and undistributed profits of the Company or the proceeds of a fresh issue of Shares made for the purpose of the repurchase.

Taking into account the current working capital position of the Company, the Directors consider that, if the Repurchase Mandate were to be exercised in full, it might have a material adverse effect on the working capital and/or the gearing position of the Company as compared with its position as at 31 December 2020, being disclosed in the Company's latest published audited accounts contained in the annual report for the year ended 31 December 2020. However, the Directors do not intend to make any repurchases to such an extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements or the gearing position of the Company which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company. The number of H Shares to

- 9 -

APPENDIX

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

be repurchased on any occasion and the price and other terms upon which the same are repurchased will be decided by the Directors at the relevant time having regard to the circumstances then prevailing, in the best interests of the Company.

STATUS OF REPURCHASED H SHARES

The Listing Rules provide that the listing of all the H Shares repurchased by the Company shall automatically be cancelled and the relevant share certificates shall be cancelled and destroyed. Under the PRC laws, the H Shares repurchased by the Company will be cancelled and the Company's registered capital will be reduced by an amount equivalent to the aggregate nominal value of the H Shares so cancelled.

H SHARE PRICES

The highest and lowest prices at which the H Shares have traded on the Stock Exchange during each of the previous twelve months preceding the Latest Practicable Date were as follows:

DIRECTORS' UNDERTAKING

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the power of the Company to make purchases pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules, the Articles of Association and the applicable laws, rules and regulations of the PRC.

- 10 -

APPENDIX

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

DISCLOSURE OF INTERESTS

None of the Directors or, to the best of their knowledge, having made all reasonable enquiries, their associates, have any present intention to sell to the Company any of the H Shares in the Company if the Repurchase Mandate is approved at the AGM and the Class Meetings.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, no connected person of the Company has notified the Company that he/she/it has a present intention to sell any H Shares nor has such connected person undertaken not to sell any of the securities held by him/her/it to the Company in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is granted.

IMPLICATION UNDER THE TAKEOVERS CODE

If a Shareholder's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases on the Company exercising its powers to repurchase securities pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder or a group of Shareholders acting in concert could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best of the knowledge and belief of the Directors, (i) Tianye Company was the Substantial Shareholder, which held 202,164,995 Domestic Shares, representing approximately 38.91% of the registered capital of the Company, (ii) Tianye Holdings, which is interested in approximately 51.3% of the registered capital of Tianye Company, held 111,721,926 Domestic Shares, representing approximately 21.51% of the registered capital of the Company. On the basis that 519,521,560 Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date and assuming that no other Shares will be issued or repurchased by the Company on or prior to the date of the AGM and the Class Meetings, if the Repurchase Mandate were exercised in full, the percentage interests in the Company held by Tianye Company and its associates would increase to approximately 60.42% of the then registered share capital of the Company. The Directors are not aware of any consequences which will arise under the Takeovers Code and/or any similar applicable law as a result of any repurchases to be made under the Repurchase Mandate. Moreover, the Directors will not make share repurchase on the Stock Exchange if such repurchase would result in the requirements under Rule 8.08 of the Listing Rules not being complied with.

SECURITIES REPURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY

The Company had not purchased any H Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) during the six months immediately preceding the Latest Practicable Date.
