The Property Leasing Annual Caps are set based on the total value of right-of-use assets relating to the Individual Contracts in respect of the provision of property leasing (the ''Property Leasing Individual Contracts'') to be entered into by the Group under the Property Leasing and Complementary Services Framework Agreement, which are calculated in accordance with the adoption of Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standard (''HKFRS'') 16 Leases with reference to (i) the maximum total gross floor area of the premises expected to be leased under the Property Leasing Individual Contracts the Group may enter into during the year ending 31 December 2020, (ii) how the term of the Individual Contracts that the Group has entered into, and expects to enter into, during the year ending 31 December 2020 will be accounted pursuant to HKFRS 16 Leases, and (iii) the incremental borrowing rate of the Company in the PRC.

The Property Management Service Fees Annual Caps have been determined on the basis of (i) the Board's anticipation, based on its anticipated growth of the Group, that the total gross floor area of the premises leased, and to be leased, under all of the Individual Contracts the Group has entered into, and will enter into, during the year ending 31 December 2020 will not exceed 6,000 square meters, and the initial term of each of these Individual Contracts being three years and (ii) the monthly fee for complementary property management services.

Shareholders and potential investors should note that the Property Leasing Annual Caps and the Property Management Service Fees Annual Caps should not be construed as an assurance or forecast by the Company of the future expenses of the Group under the terms of the Property Leasing and Complementary Services Framework Agreement.''
