As the financial assistance by way of the Pledge to be provided by ZJ Development Company is for the benefit of the Company on normal commercial terms where no security over the assets of the Company or its subsidiaries is granted to ZJ Development Company, the Pledge is exempt from compliance with all reporting, announcement and independent shareholders' approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules pursuant to Rule 14A.90 of the Listing Rules.
