DISCLOSEABLE AND CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS AMENDMENTS TO THE NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT

BACKGROUND

We have entered into a non-competition agreement with the then controlling shareholders of the Company (the ''2015 Controlling Shareholders'') in December 2015 (the ''2015 Non-Competition Agreement''), pursuant to which, the 2015 Controlling Shareholders agreed not to, and will procure their subsidiaries (other than the Group) not to, compete with us in our businesses and granted us the right to acquire the businesses of production and sales of active pharmaceutical ingredients and overseas sales of pharmaceutical products operated by the Parent Company and/or its subsidiaries (other than the Group) and certain future new businesses. For details, please refer to the prospectus issued by the Company on 15 December 2015.

As the Company and Sunshine Lake Pharma (being a controlled subsidiary of the Controlling Shareholders of the Company) will make more specific arrangements in relation to the business cooperation, the relevant contents of the 2015 Non-Competition Agreement will no longer be applicable to Sunshine Lake Pharma. Therefore, the Controlling Shareholders proposed to amend the 2015 Non-Competition Agreement to stipulate that the relevant contents of the 2015 Non-Competition Agreement will no longer be applicable to Sunshine Lake Pharma and that a new non-competition agreement will be entered into between Sunshine Lake Pharma and the Company.

2 Sunshine Lake Pharma Non-Competition Agreement

Date: 19 March 2021

Parties:

. the Company

. Sunshine Lake Pharma, a controlled subsidiary of the Controlling Shareholder of the Company and therefore a connected person of the Company

Subject Matters:

Scope of Non-Competition and Commitments

The principal business of the Company is the development and production of pharmaceutical products as well as the sales of pharmaceutical products within the PRC; the principal business of Sunshine Lake Pharma is the development and production of pharmaceutical products as well as the sales of pharmaceutical products outside the PRC. The scope of non-competition is the principal business of each of the parties as of the date of entering into this agreement.

The Company and Sunshine Lake Pharma undertake and procure their respective subsidiaries:

(1) not to directly or indirectly engage in or participate in, or assist or support any third party to engage in or participate in, either alone or with others, any business which competes or may compete, directly or indirectly, with the principal business of the counterparty and its subsidiaries in any form.

(2) during the validity period of the Sunshine Lake Pharma Non-Competition

Agreement, if each of the parties becomes aware of any relevant new business opportunity that competes or may compete, directly or indirectly, with the principal business of the counterparty, it shall give priority to offer such opportunity to the counterparty. If the counterparty decides not to accept the relevant new business opportunity for any reason, each of the parties may operate such new business opportunity itself.

Cooperation in Sales of Pharmaceutical Products within the PRC

Since Sunshine Lake Pharma is principally engaged in businesses such as the development and production of pharmaceutical products as well as the sales of pharmaceutical products outside the PRC, it has obtained, applied for or intended to apply for (1) national pharmaceutical approval numbers for its pharmaceutical products listed overseas; and (2) new national pharmaceutical approval numbers (the aforesaid domestic pharmaceutical products under the national pharmaceutical approval numbersare collectively referred to as the ''Domestic Cooperative Products''). In order to avoid competition with the Company and maximize the protection of the respective interests of both parties, they agreed to cooperate in the development of the Domestic Cooperative Products as follows:

  • (1) Sunshine Lake Pharma shall be responsible for all research and development activities, submission of regulatory approval documents, completion of clinical trials, obtaining of pharmaceutical approval numbers and other cooperative arrangements for the Domestic Cooperative Products; Sunshine Lake Pharma shall have the right to choose to retain the relevant intellectual property rights, proprietary technologies, clinical trial approvals and pharmaceutical approval numbers for the domestic pharmaceutical products, and determine fair terms for the cooperation and transaction of the Domestic Cooperative Products through various market-based mechanisms (including in the form of negotiations with the Company, etc.) for commercialization (but the Company shall have the right not to accept such cooperation opportunities); if the Company determines to accept the cooperation opportunities, the Company may be given priority to obtain opportunities for the promotion and commercialization of the Domestic Cooperative Products within the PRC at nil consideration and cooperate and carry out transactions through the income sharing model.

  • (2) The Company shall make a decision to accept the cooperation or not after receipt of the cooperation notice from Sunshine Lake Pharma. If the Company agrees to accept such domestic cooperation opportunity, it shall be responsible for all expenses in respect of promotion and commercialization of the Domestic Cooperative Products within the PRC; if the Company chooses not to accept the right to promote and commercialize one or more of the Domestic Cooperative Products within the PRC provided by Sunshine Lake Pharma (the ''Refused Products''), it shall notify Sunshine Lake Pharma within a reasonable period after receipt of the cooperation notice, which shall be deemed as not accepted by the Company when expired. Sunshine Lake Pharma may cooperate with third parties with the Refused Products at terms (including but not limited to consideration for license, sharing ratio and term) no more favorable than those offered to the Company.

  • (3) The income distribution between Sunshine Lake Pharma and the Company in respect of the Domestic Cooperative Products shall be determined by mutual agreement between the parties based on the specific conditions of the products. The income distribution is mainly based on a sales income sharing model. The sales income sharing ratio and term between the parties are with reference to the industry practices, and the sharing period is determined to be the later of 10 years after the commercialization of the specific projects or the expiration date of the core patents of the projects; the sales income sharing ratio is proposed to be based on factors such as the stage of the specific products, the market size of the products and the potential market share, and the sharing ratio of the specific products is determined at a ratio no higher than that of comparable cases in the market in accordance with the respective internal review procedures performed by the parties prior to the launch and sales of the products on a case-by-case basis.

(4) Subject to the confirmation and agreement of Sunshine Lake Pharma and the

Company on the cooperation in sales of the domestic pharmaceutical products in the manner set out in this agreement, Sunshine Lake Pharma will not carry out the sales promotion and commercialization activities of the pharmaceutical products within the PRC, therefore, it will not constitute non-competition given a clear business scope of the parties.

3 Gift Agreement on Equity Interests

In order to further protect the interests of the Company, the shareholders of the Company, intend to grant 10% of the equity of Sunshine Lake Pharma (the ''Subject Equity'') to the Company through itself or a third party designated by it at nil consideration. Given that Sunshine Lake Pharma is introducing an external investor, the Subject Equity represents 10% equity interest in Sunshine Lake Pharma upon completion of this round of financing. The specific amount of registered capital corresponding to the Subject Equity shall be determined by the grantor and Sunshine Lake Pharma based on the actual capital introduction amount and its progress, and shall be determined and completed no later than 30 September 2021. If Sunshine Lake Pharma applies for Listing in the domestic and overseas securities markets, Controlling Shareholders shall guarantee that the proportion of equity interest of the Company in Sunshine Lake Pharma before the application for the Initial Listing shall not be less than 9%; otherwise Sunshine Lake Pharma shall further provide a supplementary gift to the Company until the Company holds 10% equity interest in it. After approval of the aforesaid amendments to the non-competition agreements and the revision of the relevant competition undertaking of the Parent Company, the said transfer shall become duly effective and the relevant taxes (if any) shall be borne by the parties thereto according to the law.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE AMENDMENTS

As a pharmaceutical research and development platform of the Controlling Shareholders, Sunshine Lake Pharma is a company that engages in businesses such as the development and production of pharmaceutical products as well as the sales of pharmaceutical products outside the PRC, which has enriched the Company's product portfolio in a long run and contributed to the development of listed companies. However, due to the long research and development cycle, high investment, long return cycle and certain uncertainties, in order to solve the problem of research and development fund and accelerate the research and development progress, Sunshine Lake Pharma intends to introduce strategic investors to enhance the capital strength for independent development and promote listing in domestic and overseas securities markets. However, pursuant to the existing non-competition agreement, the Company is entitled to the priority and option right to the related business, assets and interests of Sunshine Lake Pharma, affecting the business stability and the asset independence of Sunshine Lake Pharma, the financing and subsequent capital operation, subsequent investment in and progress of research and development and thus the Company's continued opportunity to obtain more commercialization rights for domestic pharmaceutical products, which is not conducive to the long-term business development of the Company.

The Company is principally engaged in businesses such as the development and production of pharmaceutical products as well as the sales of pharmaceutical products within the PRC, and is not currently engaged in any overseas sales of pharmaceutical products. According to the existing non-competition agreement, the Company is entitled to the priority and option right to the overseas business, assets and interests of Sunshine Lake Pharma. However, since the production and sales activities of the overseas pharmaceutical business of Sunshine Lake Pharma are carried out around research and development, the system in respect of research and development, production and sales may not be divided. If the Company acquires the overseas pharmaceutical product business of Sunshine Lake Pharma, it is necessary to incorporate Sunshine Lake Pharma as a whole. Yet, Sunshine Lake Pharma is still mainly in the phase of new drug research and development with large unrecovered losses and a large pipeline of products under research, which requires a long-term and continuous investment in research and development. The exercise of such right will enhance the capital pressure of the Company and adversely affect its financial conditions.

Moreover, in order to reduce the Company's initial capital investment and accelerate the commercialization of research and development results, the Controlling Shareholders propose to procure Sunshine Lake Pharma and the Company to carry out business cooperation in respect of the domestic pharmaceutical products by way of supplementary undertaking. The income distribution of the Domestic Cooperative Products shall be determined by the mutual agreement between the parties based on the specific conditions of the products. The income distribution is mainly based on a sales income sharing model. This cooperation model is conducive to reducing the risk of initial investment and unrecoverable investment, which is more conducive to the Company's healthy and sustainable development.

In summary, the Directors (excluding all the independent non-executive Directors, who will give their opinion based on the recommendations from the independent financial adviser) are of the view that the terms of the amendments to the non-competition agreements, which have been agreed after arm's length negotiations, are on normal commercial terms, fair andreasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole; and the amendments are beneficial to accelerate the research and development progress of Sunshine Lake Pharma and provide the Company with more opportunities for commercialization of domestic pharmaceutical products, so as to reduce the Company's initial investment in the purchase of domestic pharmaceutical products from Sunshine Lake Pharma and the Company's operational risks, enhance the Company's capability of sustainable development and protect the interests of the Company and the Shareholders of the Company.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE MEASURES

In order to ensure the compliance with the New Non-Competition Agreements, the Company will adopt the following corporate governance measures:

  • (1) we will provide the independent non-executive Directors with the offer notice on the new business opportunity referred to us by the Controlling Shareholders and selling notice on pre-emptive rights or the cooperation notice from Sunshine Lake Pharma (as the case may be) within 7 days of receipt;

  • (2) the independent non-executive Directors will review, on an annual basis, the compliance with the New Non-Competition Agreements by the Controlling Shareholders;

  • (3) the Controlling Shareholders undertake to provide the Company with all the information necessary for the annual review conducted by the independent non-executive Directors. The independent non-executive Directors may engage professional advisors at the Company's expense to advise on matters relating to the New Non-Competition Agreements;

  • (4) the independent non-executive Directors will report their findings on the compliance of the Controlling Shareholders with the New Non-Competition Agreements in our annual report; and

  • (5) the Directors consider that the independent non-executive Directors have sufficient experience in assessing whether or not to take up any new business opportunities or exercise pre-emptive rights. In any case, as stated above, the independent non-executive Directors may appoint financial advisor or professional expert to provide advice, at the cost of the Company, in connection with the exercise or non-exercise of the option or pre-emptive right under the New Non-Competition Agreements.

Further, any proposed transaction between the Company, the Controlling Shareholders and the subsidiaries of the Controlling Shareholders will be required to comply with the requirements of the Listing Rules, including, where appropriate, the reporting, annual review, announcement and independent shareholders' approval requirements.
