UPDATE ON LITIGATION

Reference is made to the announcements (the "Announcements") of Global Digital Creations Holdings Limited (the "Company") dated 12 April 2016 and 21 October 2016 in respect of the legal proceedings initiated by 珠江電影製片有限公司(Pearl River Film Production Limited*)( "Pearl River Film

Production") against Guangdong Cultural Park in respect of breach of《珠影文化産業園 - 改造建 設合作框架協議》及其補充協議 (the framework agreement on the reconstruction of the Pearl River Film Park and its supplemental agreements *)("Framework Agreement and its Supplemental

Agreements"). Unless otherwise specified, capitalized terms used herein shall have the same meanings as defined in the Announcements.

Pursuant to the Civil Judgment, the Framework Agreement and its Supplemental Agreements have been declared terminated by the Guangzhou Intermediate People's Court in the late October 2016. Guangdong Cultural Park commenced negotiation with Pearl River Film Production regarding the respective parties' rights and obligations incurred in connection with Pearl River Film Cultural Park phase I and the commercial terms of a proposed new framework agreement ("New Framework Agreement") regarding, among other things, the continuous use by Pearl River Film Cultural Park by Guangdong Cultural Park, including the rental payable to Pearl River Film Production going forward. As at the date of this announcement, Guangdong Cultural Park and Pearl River Film Production are still in discussions in connection therewith and no agreement has been reached, whilst the Pearl River Film Cultural Park is currently still operating by Guangdong Cultural Park. Meanwhile, Guangdong Cultural Park has also lodged an appeal ("Appeal") with the Guangzhou Intermediate People's Court in November 2016 urging for an order that the Civil Judgment be set aside and that judgment be entered in favour of Guangdong Cultural Park with costs. No hearing date on the Appeal has been fixed as at the date of this announcement.

The Pearl River Film Cultural Park phase I was accounted for as an investment property held by the Group and was stated at a fair value of HKD 427.89 million (equivalent to RMB 366.70 million) on the Company's consolidated financial statements as at 30 June 2016. Such fair value assessment was carried out by the management of the Company on 30 June 2016 with reference to the valuation technique

carried out by an independent professional valuer on 31 December 2015. The fair value was determined based on an income approach by capitalising the rental income with due allowance for reversionary income potential and taking into consideration the rental payable to Pearl River Film Production for a term up to 31 December 2045. Base on the above fair value assessment methodologies, the management of the Company expects that in the event that the Appeal is unsuccessful, and/or the terms of the New Framework Agreement concluded are not in favour of the Group, such as the rental payable to Pearl River Film Production increases significantly and/or the term of the New Framework Agreement is shortened significantly, there will be a material adverse impact on the fair value of the Pearl River Film Cultural Park phase 1 as recorded in the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

The Company will keep the shareholders and potential investors of the Company informed of any further material development in connection with the Appeal and/or the negotiation and shall make further announcement as and when appropriate.

Shareholders and potential investors are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the shares of the Company.
