OVERVIEW

We are a leading drama series distribution company in the PRC. Our Group ranked second among all drama series distribution groups in the PRC in terms of the number of TV series first broadcast (首發劇) on satellite TV channels in the PRC in 2018, according to the Frost & Sullivan Report. In addition, we ranked 16th among all drama series distribution groups in the PRC in terms of revenue generated from drama series market in 2018 with a market share of approximately 0.34%, according to the Frost & Sullivan Report. Our Group was established in 2013, and is primarily engaged in the business of licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced and outright-purchased drama series. In addition, we are engaged in other businesses, which include (i) selling drama series scripts; (ii) acting as a distribution agent of the broadcasting rights of TV series; and (iii) investing in drama series in which we act as a non-executive producer. During the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date, we have invested and produced seven TV series and one web series covering a wide range of genres in which we acted as the executive producer. We also distributed 32, 43 and 45 drama series (including both self-produced drama series and drama series we purchased outright from third-party copyright owners/licensors) for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. The drama series we distributed were generally broadcast on well-known satellite TV channels and leading online media platforms in the PRC during the Track Record Period.

Our major businesses are as follows:

• Licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced and outright-purchased drama series: We mainly license the broadcasting rights of drama series produced by us as the executive producer or drama series that we have outright-purchased from third-party copyright owners/licensors. For drama series that we invested and acted as the executive producer, we contribute an entirety or a portion of the investment, and take a leading role in the production and distribution of the drama series. For outright-purchased drama series, we purchased the relevant copyright (or broadcasting right) from the third-party copyright owners/licensors and in turn, license the broadcasting rights to our customers, which are mainly TV channels and online media platforms in the PRC;

• Selling script copyrights of drama series: We purchase certain scripts of potential drama series to be made from third-party script copyright owners, and subsequently sell such script copyrights to certain drama series production companies from time to time;

• Acting as a distribution agent of the broadcasting rights of TV Series: We mainly act as a distribution agent for the copyright owners/licensors of TV series and promote the relevant TV series to TV channels. We negotiate the terms and conditions in connection with the licensing of the broadcasting rights with the TV channels on behalf of such TV series copyright owners/licensors. We typically receive a distribution agency fee in relation to our services; and

• Investing in drama series in which we act as a non-executive producer: We primarily act as a non-executive producer and enter into co-financing arrangements with the executive producers of the drama series. We generally make investments in the drama series and take a passive role with limited involvement in the production and distribution of the relevant drama series.

For details of our business, please refer to the section headed “Business — Our Business and Revenue Model” in this document.

The table below sets forth the total number of drama series, including both the self-produced drama series and outright-purchased drama series we distributed for the years indicated. Year ended December 31, 2017 2018 2019

BUSINESS MODEL

Licensing of the Broadcasting Rights of Self-produced Drama Series

Our self-produced drama series business mainly consists of three stages: (i) planning and projection; (ii) filming and production; and (iii) distribution and promotion. The following diagram illustrates our business model relating to the licensing of the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series:

Suppliers Suppliers Suppliers (Assembling filming (Promotion and (Script/Screenwriter) crew, filming and marketing services) post-production)

Production Provide Promotion Purchase Provide Provide costs services and marketing scripts services services costs Transfer of the broadcasting rights of Our Group drama series Customers (Satellite TV channels, Planning and Filming and Distribution terrestrial TV channels, Projection Production and Promotion new media channels and Revenue from other platforms) licensing the broadcasting rights of Investment returns Make investment drama series (Proportional license fees)

Co-investors, if any

Licensing of the Broadcasting Rights of Outright-purchased Drama Series

In addition to licensing the broadcasting rights of our self-produced drama series, we also engage in licensing the broadcasting rights of drama series that we purchased outright from third-party copyright owners/licensors. We commenced distributing outright-purchased drama series in the second half of 2016.

Sales of Copyrights of Drama Series Scripts

During the Track Record Period, we purchased certain scripts of potential drama series to be made from third-party copyright owners who are generally creative professionals, including screenwriters, novelists and publishers. These professionals are either the parties that we had previously worked with in connection with our self-produced drama series business, or those whose scripts may have the substance or themes that we believe could potentially cater to the demands and preferences of the broadcasting platforms. In 2017, we sold the script copyrights we acquired to certain third-party drama series production companies.

Acting as a Distribution Agent of the Drama Series

Beginning in the first half of 2019, we acted as a distribution agent for the copyright owners/licensors of the drama series who approach us from time to time given our well-established relationships with our customers. As a distribution agent, we promote the relevant drama series to the TV channels and negotiate the terms and conditions in connection with the licensing of the broadcasting rights of such drama series with them on behalf of the drama series copyright owners/licensors. Upon agreeing to the terms and conditions, the relevant copyright owners/licensors of the drama series will enter into a contract with the TV channels and license the broadcasting rights to them directly. We generally charge the relevant copyright owner/licensor of the drama series a distribution agency fee for our services, which is calculated based on a fixed percentage of the license fee to be received by the copyright owner from the TV channels.

Investment in Drama Series as a Non-executive Producer

During the Track Record Period, we entered into co-financing arrangements with the executive producers of certain drama series under which we acted as a non-executive producer. As a non-executive producer, we usually make investments in the drama series and take a passive role with limited involvement in the production and distribution of the relevant drama series. We generate income for this business primarily by sharing the net license fee with the executive producers of the drama series and other non-executive producers, if any, in the proportion of the respective investments. We typically receive our portion of the net license fee from the executive producers by installments on specific milestone dates.

COMPETITIVE STRENGTHS

We believe the following competitive strengths of our Company have contributed to our past success and will have a profound impact on our future growth: (i) we are a leading and well-recognized drama series distribution company in the PRC; (ii) we have diversified and synergetic business operations to support our growth in the drama series industry in the PRC; (iii) we maintain strong and fruitful relationship with our business partners; and (iv) we have visionary and experienced management team with in-depth industry knowledge.

BUSINESS STRATEGIES

Our objective is to strengthen our leading position in the PRC drama series market and enhance our overall competitiveness. To achieve this objective, we plan to execute the following business strategies: (i) continue to strengthen our drama series production and distribution capabilities; (ii) strengthen our market research, project development and production management capabilities for our self-produced drama series; (iii) continue to develop web series and capitalize on the growth opportunities in the PRC web series market; and (iv) continue to attract and retain talented professionals.

Our revenue increased from approximately RMB378.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately RMB385.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 primarily due to increases in revenue generated from licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series as we expanded this business segment. It further increased to approximately RMB391.0 million mainly as a result of the increase in the revenue generated from licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series as we licensed the first-run broadcasting rights of a drama series, “The Brothers” (義海), to three major satellite TV channels in the PRC, and successfully distributed another self-produced drama series, “A Gallant Army” (老虎隊), that had first-run broadcast on a state-owned TV channel in 2019.

Our gross profit margin increased from approximately 20.1% for the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately 25.8% for the year ended December 31, 2018, mainly due to the increased gross profit margin of the business of licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series because the costs incurred in connection with of the drama series that was broadcast in 2018 had been fully accounted for by the end of 2017, and an increase in the revenue and gross profit of the business of licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series because of our improved selection and distribution capabilities in 2018. Moreover, our gross profit margin increased from approximately 25.8% for the year ended December 31, 2018 to approximately 36.1% for the year ended December 31, 2019, primarily because (i) we successfully licensed the first-run broadcasting rights of our self-produced drama series, “A Gallant Army” (老虎隊), which had a relatively higher gross profit margin; and (ii) we improved our content selection and distribution capabilities of drama series and optimized our customer network in connection with our business of licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series. For details of the fluctuations of our gross profit margin of our various business segments during the Track Record Period, please refer to the paragraphs under “Financial Information — Major Components of Our Results of Operations — Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin” in this document.

Non-IFRS Measure

In order to supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are presented in accordance with IFRS, we also use adjusted profit and total comprehensive income attributable to equity shareholders of our Company for the year as an additional financial measure. We present this financial measure because it is used by our management to evaluate our financial performance by eliminating the impact of certain one-off or non-recurring items that we do not consider to be indicative of the performance of our business during the Track Record Period. We also believe that this non-IFRS measure provides additional information to investors and others in their understanding and evaluating our results of operations in the same manner as they help our management and in comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of our peer companies.

Note:

(1) The adjusted profit and total comprehensive income attributable to equity shareholders of our Company for the year (adding back [REDACTED]) represents the profit and total comprehensive income attributable to equity shareholders of our Company for the year excluding the effects of the [REDACTED] as it is non-recurring in nature. The adjusted profit and total comprehensive income attributable to equity shareholders of our Company for the year is not a measure of performance under IFRS. As a non-IFRS measure, the adjusted profit and total comprehensive income attributable to equity shareholders of our Company for the year is presented because our Directors believe such information will be helpful in assessing the level of our net profit by eliminating the effects of certain one-off or non-recurring items, namely, the [REDACTED]. There are no other significant non-recurring or one-off items during the Track Record Period. However, the use of the adjusted profit and total comprehensive income attributable to equity shareholders of our Company for the year has material limitations as an analytical tool, as it does not include all items that impact our profit for the relevant year.

RETAINED PROFITS/(LOSSES)

Our Group recorded accumulated losses prior to the Track Record Period in our consolidated statements of changes in equity primarily due to (i) a large amount of share-based compensation issued to certain members of our then-existing management in 2015, which was subsequently settled in July 2016; and (ii) an operating loss comprising our operating expenses incurred prior to the Track Record Period as we initiated our self-produced drama series business in the second half of 2014. We had accumulated losses of approximately RMB34.1 million as of January 1, 2017 primarily as a result of the net profit we generated in 2016. As we expanded the business of licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series in 2017, we had a net profit of approximately RMB56.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2017. Therefore, as of December 31, 2017, we became profitable and had retained profits of approximately RMB22.7 million. For details, please refer to the section headed “Financial Information — Retained Profits/(Losses)” in this document.

Our net cash used in operating activities decreased from approximately RMB82.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately RMB28.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to the increases in trade payables and other payables and accrued expenses as a result of the increase in proportional investment contributions we received from the co-investors of certain drama series under the co-financing arrangements. We had net cash generated from operating activities of approximately RMB108.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to the net cash used in operating activities of approximately RMB28.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to (i) an increase in profit before taxation; (ii) an increase in trade payables in line with the growth of our business; and (iii) an increase in other payables and accrued expenses due to the increase in payables to co-investors of drama series under the co-financing arrangements as a result of our distribution of certain drama series we produced, including “The Brothers” (義海), “A Gallant Army” (老虎隊) and “Glory of the Blood” (鐵血榮耀).

Our gearing ratio decreased from approximately 51.6% as of December 31, 2017 to approximately 41.8% as of December 31, 2018, primarily due to a substantial increase in our total equity from increased equity contributions and net profit. Our gearing ratio further decreased to approximately 17.0% as of December 31, 2019, primarily as a result of a decrease in bank and other loans as we made repayments and increased total equity.

CONTROLLING SHAREHOLDERS

Immediately after completion of the Capitalization Issue and the [REDACTED], the Controlling Shareholders, namely Mr. Yuan, Litian Century, Ms. Tian and Marshal Investment will together control the exercise of voting rights of [REDACTED]% of the Shares eligible to vote in the general meeting of our Company (assuming the [REDACTED] is not exercised and without taking into account any Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of options granted under the Share Option Scheme). Please refer to the section headed “Relationship with Controlling Shareholders” for further details.

CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS

We currently conduct our businesses through our Consolidated Affiliated Entities in the PRC. Pursuant to applicable PRC laws and regulations, foreign investors are prohibited from holding equity interest in any enterprise conducting the production and operation of drama series in the PRC. For details, see “Regulatory Overview — Regulations on Radio and Television Programs”. As advised by our PRC Legal Advisors, our principal business falls into the scope of production and operation of drama series. As a result, we entered into the Contractual Arrangements, through which we are able to exercise control over and derive the economic benefits from our Consolidated Affiliated Entities and consolidated their results of operations into those of our Group. For details, see “Contractual Arrangements.” The following simplified diagram illustrates the key aspects of the Contractual Arrangements:

(3) Exclusive call option to acquire all or part of the Registered Shareholders’ interest in LiTian TV &Film. See “Contractual Arrangements — Operation of the Contractual Arrangements — Summary of the Material Terms of the Contractual Arrangements — (2) Exclusive Call Option Agreement” in this document for details.

(4) Pledge of equity interest by the Registered Shareholders of their equity interest in LiTian TV & Film. See “Contractual Arrangements — Operation of the Contractual Arrangements — Summary of the Material Terms of the Contractual Arrangements — (3) Equity Pledge Agreement” in this document for details.

(5) Entrustment of Registered Shareholders’ right including Registered Shareholders’ power of attorney. See “Contractual Arrangements — Operation of the Contractual Arrangements — Summary of the Material Terms of the Contractual Arrangements — (4) Shareholders’ Voting Rights Entrustment Agreement and (5) Shareholders’ Powers of Attorney” in this document for details.

The payment of the service fees pursuant to the Contractual Arrangements entered between LiTian TV & Film and LiTian WFOE would result in LiTian WFOE incurring additional income tax and VAT while the income tax and VAT to be paid by LiTian TV & Film will decrease by a corresponding amount to offset such increase. Therefore, the adoption of the Contractual Arrangements would not have any financial impact on the Group as if the Contractual Arrangements were adopted throughout the Track Record Period. For details, see “Contractual Arrangements.”

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS AND NO MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGE

Subsequent to the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date, our business model has remained unchanged and we continue to focus on the business of licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced and outright-purchased drama series.

There has been an outbreak of the 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) that was first reported in , Hubei Province, in December 2019. The outbreak has endangered the health of many people residing in and significantly disrupted travel and the local economy across the country. The development of such epidemic in China is beyond our control. While we currently do not have any self-produced drama series that is in production, the epidemic, if it is prolonged, may cause potential filming and production delays on our forthcoming self-produced drama series. In addition, the COVID-19 epidemic may significantly impact the timing of repayment by our customers and adversely affect their willingness to continue to procure the broadcasting rights of drama series from us, which, in turn, may result in additional impairment losses on our trade receivables and drama series copyrights in the upcoming financial years.

We do not expect the outbreak of COVID-19 to have a significant impact on our business operations and financial condition primarily because (i) the nature of our business activities is drama series production and the licensing of the broadcasting rights of drama series. Except for on-site filming of our self-produced drama series, our employees can work remotely and conduct communications through mobile phones, the Internet and other media tools to monitor the progress of each project in a timely manner; and (ii) our Group is operated under an “asset-light” business model. Except for the costs in association with drama series production and procurement of the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series, our monthly fixed costs, such as staff costs and rental expenses are relatively low. On the other hand, to our knowledge, the operations of our customers and suppliers could be affected by the epidemic.

–12– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. SUMMARY

For example, in light of the extended Chinese New Year holidays and the COVID-19 containment measures imposed by the PRC government, their employees were required to work from home during this period and all business travels were temporarily suspended. However, this did not affect the overall business operations of our Group.

With respect or our self-produced drama series, all of the drama series that we previously invested in had completed filming and production by the end of 2019. Our newly invested self-produced drama series is expected to commence filming in June 2020. We do not have any filming plan of our self-produced drama series before June 2020. Therefore, our Directors believe that the outbreak of COVID-19 will not delay the on-site filming and production of our self-produced drama series. With respect to outright-purchased drama series, although the outbreak of such epidemic has caused some suppliers to implement work-from-home arrangements and impose travel restrictions on their employees, the content review and inspection of the relevant outright-purchased drama series could be completed remotely through mobile phones and video conferences. As (i) the outright-purchased drama series that we procured from third-party copyright owners/licensors had completed filming and production prior to our procurement; and (ii) the delivery of broadcasting tapes of these outright-purchased drama series were conducted by third-party couriers and the courier services in China had not been suspended during this period, our procurement of outright-right purchased drama series had not been materially affected by the outbreak of COVID-19 as of the Latest Practicable Date.

As of the Latest Practicable Date, our Group had fully resumed operations and to the best of our Directors’ knowledge, our major customers and suppliers had also resumed full operations. As of the Latest Practicable Date, we did not experience any delay or default in payments by our customers.

According to statistics from the Big Data System for Comprehensive Evaluation of Radio and Television Program Ratings by NRTA (國家廣播電視總局廣播電視節目收視綜合評價大數據系 統), from January 25 to February 9, 2020 (i) the average daily number of users of national cable television and Internet protocol television increased by approximately 23.5% compared to the number of users in December 2019; (ii) the total viewing hours increased by approximately 41.7% during this period compared to the same in December 2019; and (iii) the average daily household television watching time was approximately seven hours during this period. As a result, the epidemic had a positive impact on the distribution and scheduling of drama series. As of the Latest Practicable Date, we licensed the broadcasting rights of a total of 17 drama series in 2020, compared to 14 drama series that we distributed during the first three months of 2019. In addition, as of the Latest Practicable Date, we had not received any request or notice from our customers to adjust or suspend the broadcasting schedules of the drama series distributed by us. Our project department has conducted negotiations with our customers in accordance with the distribution plans and implemented our work with respect to the licensing of the broadcasting rights of drama series on time. Therefore, the outbreak of COVID-19 did not and will not have any substantial impact on our customers and our business operations.

–13– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. SUMMARY

In addition, our overall financial position and cash flows have not been materially and adversely affected by the COVID-19 epidemic. For the period from January 1, 2020 to the Latest Practicable Date, the total trade receivables we collected from our customers were approximately RMB221.8 million, compared to approximately RMB36.9 million we collected from our customers in the first quarter of 2019. We also settled the payments with our suppliers according to the normal schedules. In the future, we will collect the trade receivables from our customers according to the terms in the relevant agreements. Since most of our customers are state-owned TV channels, whose internal administrative process for payment is relatively slow. However, none of the state-owned TV channel customers had defaulted on their payments to us during the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date. In this regard, we believe that our customers will continue to make payments according to their funding plans.

Even if in the worst case scenario, (i) the COVID-19 outbreak continues to spread nationwide in the PRC; (ii) the PRC government prohibits drama series producers from conducting on-site filming for an extended period of time; (iii) we fail to raise sufficient [REDACTED]fromthe[REDACTED]; (iv) we are unable to obtain any investment in our self-produced drama series from third-party co-investors under the co-financing arrangements; (v) all investments we received from the co-investors falling due in 2020 cannot be extended and require repayment in full; and/or (vi) we can only license the broadcasting rights of our existing self-produced drama series, which have already completed production, and our procured outright-purchased drama series to our customers, our Directors believe that, taking into consideration the anticipated business operating expenses, we would have sufficient working capital to remain financially viable for 15 months from the date of this document based on (i) our existing cash at bank on hand; and (ii) expected cash flows generated from our business operations for the year ending December 31, 2020 and the six months ending June 30, 2021.

After performing sufficient due diligence work that our Directors consider appropriate and after due and careful consideration, our Directors confirm that, save for the above, there has been no material and adverse change in our financial, operational or trading positions or prospects since December 31, 2019, being the date our consolidated financial statements as set out in the Accountants’ Report of Appendix I to this document, and up to the date of this document.

DIVIDENDS

We are a holding company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands. As a result, the payment and amount of any future dividend will depend on the availability of dividends received from our subsidiaries. PRC laws require a foreign-invested enterprise to make up for its accumulative losses out of its after-tax profits and allocate at least 10% of its remaining after-tax profits, if any, to fund its statutory reserves until the aggregate amount of its statutory reserves exceeds 50% of its registered capital.

–14– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. SUMMARY

Any amount of dividend we pay will be at the discretion of our Directors and will depend on our future operations and earnings, capital requirements and surplus, general financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors which our Directors consider relevant. Any declaration and payment as well as the amount of dividend will be subject to our constitutional documents and the Cayman Companies Law. Our Shareholders in a general meeting may approve any declaration of dividends, which must not exceed the amount recommended by our Board. No dividend shall be declared or payable except out of our profits and reserves lawfully available for distribution. Our future declarations of dividends may or may not reflect our historical declarations of dividends and will be at the absolute discretion of the Board.

Historically, we have not declared or paid any dividend to our Shareholders and there is no assurance that dividends of any amount will be declared or be distributed in any year. Currently we do not have a formal dividend policy or a fixed dividend distribution ratio.

We have categorized these risks and uncertainties into: (i) risks relating to our business; (ii) risks relating to our industry; (iii) risks relating to contractual arrangement; (iv) risks relating to conducting business in the PRC; and (v) risks relating to the [REDACTED].

RISKS RELATING TO OUR BUSINESS

If the drama series we produce and/or distribute fail to satisfy the preferences of our customers, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.

Audience preferences on drama series are subject to constant changes and different genres capture different audience demographics. The production and distribution of high-quality drama series require us to continuously identify the industry trends and preferences of our customers. Our growth depends, in part, on our ability to produce and/or distribute high-quality drama series which adapt to their ever-changing preferences.

While we have strived to satisfy our customers, there is no assurance that we will be able to continue to accurately define the target audiences, promptly respond to the changes in their viewing preferences or efficiently adapt to the market trends and industry development. The drama series we produce and/or distribute may not be receptive to the audiences as other drama series released or distributed by our competitors. Among the drama series we distributed during the Track Record Period, a large number of them were war-, history- or romance-themed drama series. Any change in our target audiences’ preferences towards these and other drama series genres, such as mystery, urban and youth, could materially and adversely affect our market share and financial performance if we cannot timely and proactively react and adapt to such change.

–34– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

In addition, any market perception that the competing drama series are of higher quality than or of similar themes or genres as the drama series we distribute may reduce the popularity of our drama series. Any of the aforementioned circumstances may have a negative impact on our customers’ interest in them, which may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

If we fail to source high-quality drama series from their copyright owners/licensors upon the terms acceptable to us or if there is any loss or deterioration of relationships with such copyright owners/licensors, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.

We derive a substantial portion of our revenue from licensing of the broadcasting rights of drama series purchased from third-party copyright owners/licensors. As such, our ability to provide high-quality and popular drama series to our customers depends heavily on our ability to source them. We typically enter into content distribution agreements with the copyright owners/licensors of the drama series on a project-by-project basis. The licensing periods and the terms and conditions of such licenses vary. If the copyright owners/licensors of the drama series are no longer willing or able to license the relevant drama series to us based on the terms acceptable to us or due to deteriorating business relationships, our ability to offer high-quality drama series to our customers will be adversely affected and/or our cost could substantially increase.

In addition, according to the Frost & Sullivan Report, the drama series market in the PRC is highly competitive and fragmented. The top 20 market players accounted for approximately 15.6% of the overall market size in terms of revenue in 2018. The competition in the PRC drama series market continue to intensify as more players enter the market. Moreover, our competitors may devote greater resources than us, including managerial and financial resources, and respond more quickly than we can to the changes in the customer preferences and market trends. In the event that we are not able to successfully compete against new or existing competitors to source high-quality drama series or at terms favorable to us, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

Our revenue depends on the number of drama series we distribute, and our historical financial results may not be indicative of our future financial performance.

Our revenue mainly depends on the number of drama series we distribute in a particular financial year, which is subject to a number of factors, including the general economic conditions in China and our ability to source high-quality and popular drama series and expand our distribution platforms. Please see “Financial information — Key Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations” for further details. Revenue generated from our businesses of licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced and outright-purchased drama series was non-recurring in nature and accounted for a substantial portion of our revenue during the Track Record Period.

–35– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, we had distributed a total of 32, 43 and 45 drama series, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, our revenue from licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced and outright-purchased drama series amounted to approximately RMB359.0 million, RMB382.8 million and RMB367.6 million, respectively, representing approximately 94.8%, 99.2% and 94.1% of our total revenue, respectively. Our profit for the year was approximately RMB56.8 million, RMB67.6 million and RMB77.0 million, respectively.

Our business model primarily involves charging customers license fees for the drama series that they have purchased the related broadcasting rights from us. Accordingly, there is no assurance that we will be able to continue to source new customers or that our existing customers will continue to purchase such broadcasting rights from us in the future under increasingly intensified market competition. Furthermore, our results of operations and financial condition may fluctuate based on a number of factors, some of which are beyond our control, including, but not limited to, (i) intensified competition in the PRC drama series market; (ii) failure to develop business relationships with new customers and maintain relationships with existing customers; (iii) failure to control the costs of production and distribution; (iv) inability to successfully execute our business strategies and future plans; (v) material enforcement action taken against us for non-compliance incident(s); (vi) unpredictable liabilities and risks which may exceed our insurance coverage; (vii) general political and economic policies that are applicable to the industry in which we operate; and (viii) other unforeseeable factors. There is also no assurance that we will be able to distribute similar number of drama series in the future as we did during the Track Record Period. Furthermore, there is no assurance that the drama series licensed to us for distribution will be released on schedule or at all. Any delay in the release of our licensed drama series or any decrease in the number of drama series we distribute in the future may materially and adversely affect our business performance, results of operations and financial condition. Accordingly, there is a certain degree of uncertainty as to our future revenue and financial results, and our financial performance during the Track Record Period may not be indicative of our future financial performance.

If we fail to identify sufficient or suitable customers for our drama series, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.

Apart from existing drama series distribution channels, such as satellite TV and terrestrial TV channels and online media platforms, other distribution channels, such as over-the-top streaming media services and mobile applications, are developing rapidly and becoming increasingly popular in the PRC. As drama series consumption patterns continues to evolve, our existing customers may be supplanted and/or replaced by newer distribution channels. There is no assurance that we will be able to identify new customers for these new drama series distribution channels or we will be successful in our negotiation with them. If we fail to identify and build business relationships with a sufficient number of distribution channels on commercially acceptable terms, we may not be able to maximize our licensing income from the drama series we distribute. If this occurs, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

–36– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

We generated a substantial portion of our revenue from our five largest customers during the Track Record Period.

Our success largely depends on our ability to retain existing customers and build business relationships with new customers. Our relationships with customers depend on a number of factors, including our ability to recognize and adapt to industry trends and audience preferences to deliver high-quality drama series. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, the percentage of our aggregate revenue attributable to our five largest customers in aggregate was approximately 73.6%, 82.3% and 73.8%, respectively. Please see “Business — Our Customers” in this document for further details.

There is no guarantee that we will be able to maintain our existing relationships with our customers or develop relationships with new customers on commercially acceptable terms. We also cannot assure you that the revenue generated from dealing with our customers can be maintained or increased in the future. In the event that the existing major customers experience financial difficulties, cease doing business with us or significantly reduce their amounts of purchase from us, and we are unable to identify their replacements in a timely manner and on commercially acceptable terms, or at all, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

Furthermore, we do not have long-term or exclusive contracts with our major customers and we usually enter into agreements with them on a project-by-project basis. We cannot assure you that our customers would continue to purchase the broadcasting rights from us at the current level or at all. If our competitors succeed in marketing their drama series to these customers by, for example, offering more favorable terms or more appealing themes or genres, we may lose our customers and may not be able to find new customers who will purchase the broadcasting rights of drama series from us at similar terms. Any termination or discontinuation of the existing business relationship with, or significant decrease in purchases from, our customers could have a material and adverse effect on us.

We expect that our future performance will depend on the success of our major customers as well. In turn, the success of our major customers depends on several factors, including, but not limited to, the audience preferences and market acceptance of our licensed drama series as well as their distribution channels and arrangements, which are beyond our control. Any adverse development, including, but not limited to, the reduction in viewership of our customers for any reason, could affect the success of our customers, which may in turn materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results.

We have limited experience in the production and distribution of web series, and we may not be successful in the implementation of our business strategies to tap into the growing web series market.

We have begun to expand and diversify our business in 2019 by producing web series. For details of such strategy, please refer to the section headed “Business — Business Strategies” in this document.

China’s Internet landscape is fast evolving through ongoing innovation, applications and content development. According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, China has the largest Internet and mobile Internet user base in the world. In 2019, the number of Internet video users in China reached approximately 646.6 million, accounting for approximately 73.8% of the Internet users in China. The number of subscribers to online media platforms increased at a CAGR of approximately 38.4% from approximately 85.7 million in 2015 to approximately 314.8 million in 2019, which accounted for approximately 48.7% of Internet video viewers in 2019. This number is forecasted to reach approximately 518.2 million by 2024, which is estimated to account for approximately 62.2% of Internet video viewers in 2024. According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, the total revenue of the web series market in the PRC is expected to increase from approximately RMB22.9 billion in 2019 to approximately RMB43.0 billion in 2024, representing a CAGR of approximately 13.4%.

Based on this market trend, we believe it is important for us to extend the reach of our business to the web series market in order to maintain our business growth and overall competitiveness. However, we have very limited experience in producing and/or distributing web series. As of the Latest Practicable Date, we had only participated in the production of one web series. Furthermore, our business strategies are based on prevailing circumstances and the development of the web series market currently known to us. There is no assurance that we will be able to successfully produce and/or distribute web series, or that our existing strategies will be able to help us achieve our business objectives in the event there are changes to the existing circumstances. In order to grow our web series business, it is essential for us to develop closer relationships with online media platforms, which could be time-consuming and costly. To manage and support our business expansion, it is also necessary to recruit, retain, train and develop additional management personnel who possess the necessary skills and knowledge in the web series market that will be helpful to the implementation of our business objectives. There is no assurance we will be able to identify and recruit such personnel on a timely basis, or at all. All of such endeavors require substantial management time and resources, which could be detrimental to our existing drama series business and other day-to-day operations of our Group. If we fail to effectively manage and capitalize on new business opportunities, our business and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Our business, results of operations and financial condition depend on the market recognition and perception of our reputation.

The PRC drama series market has become increasingly competitive. In order to remain competitive, we need to maintain our reputation by continuously producing and/or distributing high-quality drama series that satisfy the ever-changing preferences of our customers. The quality and popularity of the drama series produced and/or distributed by us could be subject to a number of factors that are beyond our control. For instance, the levels of audiences’ satisfaction with our drama series could be adversely affected if there exist any accident on filming sites, artist scandals, negative press, disruption to our production and/or distribution due to failure to obtain approval from the NRTA. Any negative publicity concerning our Group, our Directors or artists of the drama series we produced and/or licensed, even if untrue, could adversely affect our reputation and brand image, business and growth prospects, and take up substantial amount of time and resources from our management. If our reputation is damaged in any way, our customers’ interest in the drama series we produced and/or distributed could diminish, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

–38– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

During the Track Record Period, the public perception of our drama series was largely driven by word-of-mouth referrals of our viewers and our marketing efforts. We mainly engage other marketing service providers, who are Independent Third Parties, to conduct promotional activities for the drama series we distribute. However, if we are unable to increase the market awareness of the drama series we produce and/or distribute, we may be unable to maintain or increase viewership. We may also be required to incur excessive marketing and promotion expenses in order to maintain and/or enhance the market recognition of our brand, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.

Our business operations are subject to extensive government regulations and compliance requirements. Any promulgation of additional or more stringent laws or regulations on the distribution of drama series by the PRC government may result in an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Our business operations are subject to a variety of PRC laws, rules and regulations, which affect various aspects of our operations, including, among others, ownership structure, requisite licenses and permits, marketing strategy, media content, customer relationship and intellectual property. For example, we are required to obtain the TV Series Production License (電視劇製作許 可證) (either Class A (甲種) or Class B (乙種)) and TV Series Distribution License (電視劇發行許可 證) for the production and distribution of drama series, respectively. During the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date, most of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities had Radio and Television Program Production and Operation Permits (廣播電視節目製作經營許可證). Please see “Regulatory Overview” and “Business — Licenses and Permits” in this document for further details.

If any of our licenses and permits are revoked due in part, to our serious violation of the applicable rules and regulations in respect to our business operations, or if we are unable to renew any of the required licenses and permits upon their expiration, we may not be able to continue to produce and/or distribute the drama series. Our failure to comply with these laws and regulations could result in fines and/or proceedings against us by the regulatory authorities and/or affected parties, which, if material, could materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, the promulgation of new laws, rules and regulations that restrict or otherwise unfavorably affect the ability or manner in which we operate would require us to adopt certain changes to ensure compliance, and could decrease the demand for our products and services, reduce our revenue, increase costs, limit profitability and/or subject us to additional liabilities. There is no assurance that the PRC government will not impose additional or more stringent laws or regulations on the distribution of drama series in the future. Any such additional or more stringent laws or regulations may result in an adverse effect on our results of operations.

Moreover, the SAT issued the Notice of the State Administration of Taxation on Further Regulating the Taxation Order in the Film and Television Industry (國家稅務總局關於進一步規範 影視行業稅收秩序有關工作的通知) on October 2, 2018, which demands that starting from October 2018 and ending by the end of July 2019, the work of regulating the tax order of the film and television industry in the PRC would be gradually promoted in accordance with the steps of self-examination and self-correction, supervision and correction, key inspection, summary and improvement. After our self-examination and the declaration with taxation authorities, the amount of approximately RMB189,480.2 of tax in arrears has been paid in full as of the Latest

Practicable Date. The overdue tax primarily comprised of value-added tax, construction tax, education surcharges and stamp tax. We did not timely make requisite tax payments due mainly because our financial personnel did not assess a small amount of tax payables in a timely manner during the process of making reimbursements to employees and making input deductions for daily consumables. Accordingly, the work of regulating the tax order of the film and television industry has no material or adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Nevertheless, if any of the actors in our self-produced drama series was involved in the tax evasion activities or any of our third-party drama series copyright owners/licensors was subject to tax inspections or penalties, we may not be able to distribute the drama series that meet the content needs or preferences of our customers. Additionally, the long-term mechanism of tax administration in the film and TV industry that was mentioned in the regulating notice has yet to be announced. With the new regulation announced, the tax costs of the film and TV entities and the relevant personnel with irregular tax payment will be increased, and the industry-wide tax inspection campaign may result in a slowdown in the filming and production progress of the drama series in the PRC. If any of these circumstances occurs, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.

Any change in or discontinuation of the preferential tax treatment that we have enjoyed during the Track Record Period may have a material and adverse impact on our results of operations.

According to the Notice of the Preferential EIT Policies in relation to Kashgar and Horgos as Two Special Economic Development Zones in Xinjiang《關於新疆喀什霍爾果斯兩個特殊經濟 ( 開發區企業所得稅優惠政策的通知》) and our preferential filing records of EIT (企業所得稅優惠事 項備案表), our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, Horgos Tiantian Meimei, Horgos Haohao Xuexi and Tiantian Xiangshang, enjoy an exemption from EIT during the period from 2017 to 2020, and Xinjiang Litian is entitled to EIT exemption from 2018 to 2020. After the expiry of the respective tax exemption, Horgos Tiantian Meimei, Horgos Haohao Xuexi, Tiantian Xiangshang and Xinjiang Litian will be subject to an EIT rate of 25.0%, pursuant to the applicable PRC laws and regulations. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, the amount of tax effect on preferential tax rate was approximately RMB10.2 million, RMB15.5 million and RMB21.2 million, respectively. Please see note 7(b) of the Accountants’ Report of our Group in Appendix I to this document. There is no assurance that the PRC policies on preferential tax treatment will not change in the future or that the current preferential tax treatment we have enjoyed will not be revoked. Any change in or discontinuation of such favorable tax treatment may materially or adversely affect our profitability and operating cash flows.

We are exposed to credit risks in relation to our trade and bills receivables.

As of December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, our trade and bills receivables were approximately RMB194.1 million, RMB376.2 million and RMB530.9 million, respectively. As of the same dates, our average trade and bills receivables turnover days were approximately 120.1 days, 276.8 days and 447.3 days, respectively. For details, please see “Financial Information — Description of Certain Key Items from Our Consolidated Statement of Financial Position — Current Assets and Current Liabilities — Trade and Bills Receivables” in this document.

–40– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

Our trade receivables primarily consist of license fee due from customers in connection with the distribution of drama series. We cannot assure you that we will be able to collect all or any of our trade receivables on time, or at all. Moreover, we generate revenue primarily from licensing the broadcasting rights of our self-produced and outright-purchased drama series to numerous TV channels. These TV channels are primarily state-owned institutions, which afford them more bargaining power over the drama series copyright owners/licensors for a longer credit period. Their ability to make timely payments to us also depends on whether they are able to collect advertising fees from their customers that purchase airtime for advertisements. Our customers may also face unexpected circumstances, including, but not limited to, financial difficulties caused by fiscal constraints or changes in fiscal policy of the central government. As a result, we may not be able to receive payments of uncollected debts from such customers on a timely basis, or at all, and we may need to make provisions for trade receivables. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, our impairment loss allowance of trade and bills receivables recognized were RMB2.2 million, RMB8.0 million and RMB28.2 million, respectively. Although we have adopted stringent credit control procedures, including initiating proactive and periodic communications with our customers for payments, such measures may not be adequate to safeguard against material credit risks nor to guarantee that our customers will settle payment when it comes due. The occurrence of such event could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

We rely on certain suppliers for the provision of services required to complete our drama series production process and we have limited control over the quality of the drama series we produce.

As an executive producer of certain of our drama series, we rely on various third-party service providers, to provide various services required for the completion of our production process. Since the production of drama series takes a long period of time to complete and can be costly, during the Track Record Period, we had outsourced most of the production and filming work to certain third-party service providers that are normally equipped with the appropriate experience and resources we believe that are necessary in carrying out their obligations. While we maintain close and stable relationships with our suppliers, we may not be able to effectively control the quality and safety standards of the services they provide, compared with the services supplied by our employees.

Any failure by our suppliers to meet our quality and safety standards may result in our liabilities to third parties, and have a material and adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition, as well as our reputation and growth prospects. Moreover, as we have engaged a multitude of suppliers for our business operations, there is no assurance that there will be a stable supply of such suppliers and that the services rendered will always be able to meet our expectations or that of our customers, especially in light of the changing audience preferences and industry trends. Moreover, as there are no objective standards to assess the quality of a particular drama series, there is no assurance that the quality and aesthetic value of such drama series will meet our requirements and expectations or appeal to the viewers. If the quality of the drama series, of which we participate in the production and/or distribution activities, does not satisfy our requirements or fails to meet market expectations, which could materially and adversely affect our business performance and results of operations.

–41– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

Our business depends, to a large extent, on our ability to maintain our existing relationships with third-party marketing service providers to promote our outright-purchased drama series.

During the Track Record Period, we mainly relied on certain marketing service providers, who are Independent Third Parties, to execute the marketing plans and conduct various marketing and advertising activities to promote our outright-purchased drama series, including devising posters, setting up billboards and promoting the drama series on new media and/or online social platforms. Please refer to the section headed “Business — Sales and Marketing” in this document for further information on our marketing approach. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, promotion and marketing expenses we incurred for engaging third-party marketing service providers amounted to approximately RMB152.0 million, RMB132.6 million and RMB63.3 million, respectively.

Our ability to continue to grow our revenue and profit will depend in large part on providing quality drama series that meet our customers’ demands and preferences. We rely on our reputation and track record in the PRC drama series industry as well as continued performance and services provided by such third-party marketing service providers to promote our outright-purchased drama series. We generally do not enter into long-term marketing services contracts with such service providers. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee that such third-party marketing service provider will continue to cooperate with us in the future. If we are not able to maintain or grow our relationships with such third-party service providers with strong advertising and marketing capabilities, it may be difficult for us to successfully distribute our outright-purchased drama series. Meanwhile, we cannot assure you that the marketing services provided by such third-party service providers will always be effective since the marketing approaches and tools in the PRC drama series market are evolving, which may further require us to enhance our marketing approaches and experiment with new marketing methods to keep pace with industry developments and customer preferences. Failure to engage qualified third-party marketing service providers or failure to refine our existing marketing approaches or to introduce new marketing approaches in a cost-effective manner could reduce our market share and materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and profitability.

Certain of our business operations are capital-intensive, and we may not always be able to meet our planned funding needs in a cost-effective manner, or at all.

Certain of our business operations, such as our investment in the production and distribution of drama series, are capital-intensive. The costs of production and distribution may increase in the future. Cash from internal resources, including our working capital, may not be adequate to fund all these demands and we may seek external funding. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, our cash conversion cycle was approximately 153.2 days, 276.9 days and 356.1 days, respectively. Our ability to obtain external financing in the future is subject to a variety of uncertainties, including our future financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, share price performance, liquidity of international capital and lending markets and PRC governmental regulations concerning foreign investment and the media industry. In addition, indebtedness would subject us to increased debt service obligations and could result in operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations. Consequently, external financing may not be adequate for us to continue to make substantial investments or may be available only on terms that are disadvantageous to us, either of which may materially and adversely affect the growth of our business and results of operations.

–42– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

We may not be able to identify suitable co-investors for the drama series that we participate in and such co-investors may withdraw their investments in our drama series.

Some of the drama series we produced during the Track Record Period involved the participation of co-investors. Whether we can identify suitable co-investors with sufficient resources to participate in the drama series in which we invest depends on various factors, such as the attractiveness of the investment, the estimated investment budget, the copyright licensing income, the market conditions and the overall economic and political environment. There is no assurance that we will be able to identify suitable co-investors on commercially acceptable terms or at all in the future. If we are unable to identify suitable co-investors to invest in our drama series, we may be forced to curtail the number of our drama series projects are undertake, and our results of operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.

In addition, co-investors may withdraw their investments in our self-produced drama series for reasons that are beyond our control. Under such circumstances, we may need to supplement the required capital with our own funds or find other suitable investors in a short period of time. If we are not able to make up the shortfall, the filming and production schedule of the drama series may be delayed, which will adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We recorded negative operating cash flows in 2017 and 2018 and are subject to liquidity risks arising from cash flow mismatch and long cash conversion cycle.

We recorded negative net cash flows from operating activities of approximately RMB82.5 million and RMB28.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2018, respectively, which were mainly attributable to the increases in the trade and bills receivables and the copyrights of the drama series we held. For further details of the changes in cash flows from our operating activities, please refer to the section headed “Financial Information — Liquidity and Capital Resources — Cash Flows Analysis — Net Cash Generated from/(Used in) Operating Activities” in this document.

For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, our average trade and bills receivables turnover days were approximately 120.1 days, 276.8 days and 447.3 days, respectively. We had long average trade receivables turnover days mainly because the payment terms varied among the agreements we entered into with our customers, which were generally negotiated on a case-by-case basis. For licensing the broadcasting rights of drama series, the total consideration of each agreement is settled in installments with reference to the point in time when the drama series materials are delivered and/or the commencement of the broadcasting of the drama series. Generally, the full payment cycle spans over a period of approximately six months to two years. With the expansion of our business, we granted some new customers a relatively longer payment cycle, which led to a slow-down in our collection of trade receivables. For details, please see “Financial Information — Description of Certain Key Items from Our Consolidated Statement of Financial Position — Current Assets and Current Liabilities — Trade and Bills Receivables” in this document. Accordingly, time lags often exist between receiving payments from our customers and making payments to our suppliers. If we fail to manage the timing and amount of cash to be received from our customers and the timing and amount of cash to be paid to our suppliers in an effective manner, we may be subject to tightened liquidity and may fail to maintain sufficient working capital to support our daily

–43– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS operation. If our liquidity position deteriorates, we may need to decelerate the payments to our suppliers to manage the magnitude of such cash flow mismatch, which may subject us to breach of contracts with such suppliers, or even delay the production of our self-produced drama series. If any of these events occurs, our reputation, business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.

For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, our average drama series copyrights turnover days were approximately 202.8 days, 322.4 days and 341.3 days, respectively. The long drama series copyrights turnover days were mainly due to the long production and distribution life cycle of our self-produced drama series. In view of the intense capital requirement for producing and licensing the broadcasting rights of drama series, the increased drama series copyrights turnover days from 2017 to 2018 was mainly because certain of our self-produced drama series were under production. For further details of our drama series copyrights, please refer to the section headed “Financial Information — Description of Certain Key Items from Our Consolidated Statement of Financial Position — Current Assets and Current Liabilities — Drama Series Copyrights” in this document.

The abovementioned slow recovery of trade receivables and long drama series copyrights turnover days may slow down the overall cash conversion cycle of our business and tighten our liquidity. We cannot assure you that we will not experience net cash outflows from operating activities in the future. Net cash outflow from operating activities could impair our ability to make necessary capital expenditures and constrain our operational flexibility as well as adversely affect our ability to meet our liquidity requirements. If we do not have sufficient cash to fund our future capital requirements, settle our trade payables and outstanding debt obligations when they become due, we may need to significantly increase our external borrowings. If adequate funds are not available from external sources, on satisfactory terms to us or at all, we may be forced to delay or curtail our business expansion plans. As a result, our business, financial conditions and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

We recorded accumulated losses as of January 1, 2017.

We had accumulated losses prior to the Track Record Period primarily due to (i) a large amount of share-based compensation issued to certain members of our then-existing management in 2015, which was subsequently settled in July 2016; and (ii) an operating loss comprising our operating expenses incurred prior to the Track Record Period as we initiated our self-produced drama series business in the second half of 2014. We had accumulated losses of approximately RMB34.1 million as of January 1, 2017 primarily as a result of the net profit we generated in 2016. We cannot assure you that we will not issue any share-based compensation in the future. If we recorded accumulated losses, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

We are subject to risks in connection with impairment losses on drama series copyrights.

If circumstances indicated that the carrying amount of a drama series copyright may not be recoverable, the drama series copyright may be considered “impaired”, and an impairment loss may be recognized in accordance with accounting policy for impairment of drama series copyrights as described in note 2(f) of the Accountants’ Report of our Group included in Appendix I to this document.

–44– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

Drama series copyrights are tested for impairment periodically or whenever the events or changes in circumstances indicate that their recorded carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When such a decline has occurred, the carrying amount is reduced to the recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of the fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In determining the value in use, expected future cash flows generated by the drama series copyright are discounted to their present value, which requires significant judgement relating to the level of revenue to be generated over the life cycle of the drama series copyright. We use all readily available information in determining an amount that is a reasonable approximation of the recoverable amount, including estimates based on reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections of the level of revenue to be generated over the life cycle of the drama series copyright. Changes in these estimates could have a significant impact on the recoverable amount of drama series copyrights and could result in additional impairment charge or reversal of impairment in future periods. In the event we experience impairment losses on our drama series copyrights, our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

Distribution of our licensed web series on the Internet may be found objectionable by the PRC regulatory authorities.

The distribution of our licensed web series to our online media platform customers is subject to the PRC regulations governing Internet access and the distribution of videos and other forms of information over the Internet. Under such regulations, Internet content providers and Internet publishers are prohibited from posting or displaying over the Internet any content that, among other things, violates the PRC laws and regulations, impairs the national dignity of China or the public interest, or is obscene, superstitious, frightening, gruesome, offensive, fraudulent or defamatory. Failure to comply with these requirements may result in monetary penalties, revocation of licenses to provide Internet content or other licenses, suspension of the concerned platforms and reputational harm. In addition, these laws and regulations are subject to interpretation by the relevant authorities, and it may not be possible to determine in all cases the types of content that could cause our customers to be held liable as an Internet content provider. Online media platform operators may also be held liable for the content displayed on or linked to its platform that is subject to certain restrictions. Our online media platform customers may be subject to such restrictions. If we fail to identify and prevent illegal or inappropriate content from being distributed to our customers, we may be subject our customers to liability, government sanctions or loss of licenses and/or permits, which may in turn materially and adversely affect our business performance, results of operations and financial condition.

To the extent that the PRC regulatory authorities find any web series displayed on our customers’ platforms objectionable, they may require our customers to limit or eliminate the dissemination of such content on their platform in the form of take-down orders or otherwise. We may, from time to time, receive our customers’ requests to re-edit, re-shoot or delete certain content that the Internet audio-visual program service providers or the competent administrative department of radio, film and television in the PRC deemed not to satisfy the applicable laws, administrative regulations and State provisions. In the event that the PRC regulatory authorities find our web series on our customers’ platform objectionable and impose penalties on our customers or take other actions against our customers in the future, our business, results of operations and reputation may be materially and adversely affected.

There is no assurance that our business strategies and future plans will be successfully implemented.

The successful implementation of our business strategies and future plans may be hindered by risks set out in this section and is subject to numerous factors, including, but not limited to, the following:

• our ability to manage our business operations and financial resources;

• our ability to adapt to changing industry and market trends and audience preferences;

• our ability to retain our existing customers or cooperation partners and recruit new ones;

• our ability to negotiate favorable terms with our suppliers, customers, co-investors and cooperation partners;

• our ability to recruit, train and retain skilled personnel to manage and operate our business; and

• the popularity of the drama series we invest in and/or distribute.

There is no assurance that we will be able to successfully implement our business strategies or future plans. Even if our business strategies or future plans are implemented, there is no assurance that they will enable us to successfully increase our market share or enhance our market position.

Uncertainties involving the production of drama series and their relatively long revenue cycle may materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

We intend to continue to strengthen our capabilities in producing drama series and expand our business of licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series. Please see “Business — Business Strategies” in this document for further information. However, the production process of drama series is subject to many uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control. For example, there are uncertainties at the planning and projecting stage involving sudden changes in market preferences and/or applicable rules and regulations, which may prevent us from successfully developing and monetizing our acquired IPs or scripts as we anticipated. In addition, at the filming and production stage, we may not always be able to finish the production as scheduled or within our pre-determined budget due to various factors, such as insufficient funding, actors’ unsatisfactory performance or unexpected changes of filming sites. If we are unable to adhere to the planned production schedules and promotion plans, our production cost may increase and production schedules may be delayed, which will adversely affect our results of operations. Our failure to produce and distribute the drama series in accordance with our expectation may result in the write-off of intangible assets. There is no assurance that the production process of drama series will be on schedule as we expected, and any uncertainty could result in prolonged production time, which may increase the production cost and delay the distribution of such drama series. If this occurs, we will not be able to realize income on a timely basis, which may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

–46– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

Moreover, the production of drama series generally require a relatively long time to complete, leading to a prolonged revenue cycle for this business, which may adversely impact our operating cash flows. While we have mainly relied on the licensing of the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series during the Track Record Period to maintain our market position and generate stable revenue, there is no guarantee we will be able to continue to do so in the future. If we are not able to effectively shorten our revenue cycle, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

We may grant employee share options and other share-based compensation, which may materially and adversely affect our results of operations and the [REDACTED] of our Shares in the future.

We adopted a series of employee incentive schemes in [●], under which we may grant options and issue shares from time to time to our Directors, senior management and employees as rewards for their contributions and to attract and retain key personnel. The fair value of the services received in exchange for the grant of these share options will be recognized as share-based compensation expenses, which will have a material adverse effect on our profits. Moreover, exercise of the share options we have granted or plan to grant will increase the number of our Shares in issue. Any actual or perceived sales of additional Shares acquired upon the exercise of the share options we have granted or plan to grant may materially and adversely affect the [REDACTED] of our Shares.

We depend on our senior management and other key personnel, and our business and growth prospects may be severely disrupted if we lose their services and are unable to attract new employees to replace them.

We depend on the continued contributions of our senior management. In particular, we rely on the expertise, experience and leadership ability of Mr. Yuan, the chairman of the Board and one of our executive Directors, and Ms. Tian, our chief executive officer and another one of our executive Directors, who have been critical to the strategic direction and overall management of our Company.

If one or more of our key personnel are unable or unwilling to continue to work with us, we may not be able to replace them easily or at all, which may cause a significant disruption to our business operations, strategic plan and strategy implementation, and materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. We may also have to incur additional and potentially significant expenses to recruit and train new personnel. In addition, if any of our key employees joins a competitor or forms a competing company, we may lose knowhow, trade secrets, business partners and key professionals and staff. Furthermore, since the demand and competition for talent is intense in our industry, we may need to offer higher compensation and other benefits in order to attract and retain key personnel in the future, which could increase our compensation expenses. We may not be able to recruit sufficient talent to support the growth of our business, which in turn may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Any acts of bribery, money laundering, corrupt practices or other misconduct of our employees or cooperation partners may materially and adversely affect our business, reputation, results of operations and financial condition.

In recent years, the PRC State Council and various PRC government authorities have intensified and stepped up their efforts to combat bribery, money laundering, corrupt practices and other improper conducts in the PRC. We cannot assure you that our employees or cooperation partners, including, among others, our suppliers, customers and co-investors, will not be engaged in acts of bribery, money laundering, corruption or other misconduct. There is also no assurance that our internal control and risk management systems will prevent or detect any improper or illegal acts of our employees or cooperation partners. The failure of our employees to comply with the PRC anti-bribery, anti-corruption and other related laws and regulations may subject us to substantial financial losses and may have a negative impact on our reputation. In addition, if our cooperation partners are subject to investigations, claims or legal proceedings as a result of such improper or illegal acts, they may be subject to fines and penalties and thus may not be able to contribute their portion of investment funds to our drama series projects on schedule or at all, thereby delaying the project progress. Any of the abovementioned circumstances may materially and adversely affect our business, reputation, results of operations and financial condition.

We have not purchased any insurance to cover our main assets, properties and business, and our limited insurance coverage could expose us to significant costs and business disruption.

Insurance companies in the PRC generally do not offer as extensive an array of insurance products as insurance companies do in countries with more developed economies. In line with general industry practice in China, we have not purchased any insurance to cover our main assets, properties and business. Furthermore, we do not maintain business interruption insurance or key man life insurance. Any disruption in our network infrastructure or business operations, litigation or natural disasters may result in our incurring substantial costs and the diversion of our resources and we have no insurance to cover such losses. As a result, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Confidentiality agreements with employees and others may not adequately prevent disclosure of trade secrets and other proprietary information.

We have devoted substantial resources to the development of our self-produced drama series and treat them as trade secrets. In order to protect the content of our self-produced drama series, we rely significantly on confidentiality provisions in the agreements with our employees and third parties. These agreements may not effectively prevent disclosure of confidential information and may not provide an adequate remedy in the event of unauthorized disclosure of confidential information. In addition, others may independently discover trade secrets and proprietary information, frustrating our ability to assert any trade secret rights against such parties. Costly and time-consuming litigation could be necessary to enforce and determine the scope of our proprietary rights, and failure to obtain or maintain trade secret protection may materially and adversely affect our competitive position.

We may be subject to fines for our failures to contribute to social insurance and housing provident funds for our employees in full.

In accordance with the applicable PRC laws and regulations, we are obliged to complete registrations for social insurance and housing provident fund and contribute to social insurance and housing provident funds for our employees. During the Track Record Period, certain of our subsidiaries did not complete registrations for social insurance and housing provident fund, open housing provident fund accounts for their employees and fully contribute to social insurance and housing provident funds for our employees. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, the amount of unpaid contribution to social insurance and housing provident fund for certain of our PRC subsidiaries was approximately RMB0.4 million, RMB0.7 million and RMB0.8 million, respectively. The above-mentioned amounts have been included in our financial statements for the Track Record Period and disclosed as payables for staff-related costs in Note 17 to the Accountants’ Report in Appendix I to this document. We have obtained confirmation certificates from the competent government authorities confirming that no violation of labor security laws and regulations has been identified against our PRC subsidiaries during the Track Record Period. For more details of such non-compliance incidents, please see ‘‘Business — Legal Proceedings and Compliance — Systemic Non-compliance Incidents” in this document.

According to the Social Insurance Law of the PRC《中華人民共和國社會保險法》 ( ), for outstanding social insurance contributions that we did not fully pay for our employees, the relevant PRC authorities may demand that we pay such contributions within a stipulated deadline, and we may be liable for a late payment fee equal to 0.05% of the outstanding contribution amount for each day of delay. If we fail to make such payment within the stipulated deadline upon receiving the demand notice from the relevant PRC authorities, we may be liable to a fine of one to three times of the outstanding contribution amount. Under the Regulations on Administration of Housing Provident Fund《住房公積金管理條例》 ( ), (i) for housing provident fund registrations that we fail to complete before the prescribed deadlines, we may be subject to a fine ranging from RMB10,000 to RMB50,000 for each non-compliant subsidiary or branch and (ii) for housing provident fund contributions that we fail to pay within the prescribed deadlines, we may be subject to any order by the relevant people’s court to enforce such payments. Based on the relevant PRC laws and regulations, we may be subject a maximum amount of late payment fees of approximately RMB375,000 for failing to timely make the social insurance contributions for our employees, and the maximum penalty we may be subject to for failing to make full social insurance and housing provident fund contributions during the Track Record Period would be approximately RMB3.9 million.

We leased several buildings in connection with our operations. We may not be able to find suitable buildings to replace our existing buildings in the event our landlords refuse to renew the relevant lease agreements upon the expiry of their terms, and our legal right to lease these properties could be challenged by property owners or other third parties.

As of the Latest Practicable Date, we leased eight properties from third parties in China, with an aggregate gross floor area of approximately 1,403.87 square meters. Our leased properties in China are primarily used as offices. See “Business — Properties” in this document for details. Such properties were generally maintained by our landlords. Accordingly, we are not in a position to effectively control the quality, maintenance and management of these buildings.

In the event the quality of the buildings deteriorates, or if any or all of our landlords fail to properly maintain and renovate such buildings in a timely manner or at all, the operation of our business could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, if any of our landlords terminates the existing lease agreements, refuses to continue to lease the buildings to us for use when such lease agreements expire, or increase rent to the level not acceptable to us, we will be forced to look for alternative locations. We may not be able to find suitable buildings for such relocation without incurring significant time and costs, or at all. If this occurs, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

Furthermore, we have not registered certain of our lease agreements with the relevant government authorities. Under the applicable PRC laws and regulations, we may be required to register and file with the relevant government authorities executed leases. According to our PRC Legal Advisors, while the lack of registration will not affect the validity and enforceability of the lease agreements under the PRC Law, a fine ranging from RMB1,000 to RMB10,000 may be imposed on the parties for each non-registered lease.

Legal disputes or proceedings may expose us to liabilities, divert our management’s attention and adversely affect our reputation.

During the ordinary course of our business operations, we may be involved in legal disputes or proceedings relating to, among other things, contractual disputes and labor disputes. Such legal disputes or proceedings may subject us to substantial liabilities and may have a material and adverse effect on our reputation, business operations and financial condition.

If we become involved in material or protracted legal proceedings or other legal disputes in the future, we may need to incur substantial legal expenses and our management may need to devote significant time and attention to handle such proceedings and disputes, diverting their attention from our business operations. In addition, the outcome of such proceedings or disputes may be uncertain and could result in settlement or outcomes which may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Our filming crew, especially the artists engaged in our self-produced drama series, may suffer accidents or injuries, which could adversely affect our reputation and subject us to potential liabilities.

We could be held liable for the accidents, injuries or other harm the filming crew may suffer, including the artists engaged in our self-produced drama series, during their production. These accidents may include those caused by or otherwise arising in connection with our employees or facilities at the filming sites.

A liability claim against us or any of our employees could adversely affect our reputation. Even if unsuccessful, such a claim could create unfavorable publicity, cause us to incur substantial expenses and divert the time and attention of our management, all of which may have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

–50– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

Any occurrence of force majeure events, natural disasters or outbreaks of contagious diseases, such as COVID-19, in the PRC may have a material adverse effect on our business performance and results of operations.

Our business could be adversely affected by natural disasters or outbreaks of epidemics, which may affect the production schedule of the drama series we produce or purchase from third-party copyright owners/licensors. Epidemics, pandemics or outbreaks or escalation of diseases (including, among others, Severe Acute Respiratory Syndromes (SARS), avian influenza, swine flu (H1N1), coronavirus disease in 2019 (COVID-19) and other diseases) may affect the livelihood of people in the PRC. These natural disasters, outbreaks of contagious diseases, and other adverse public health developments in the PRC could severely disrupt our business operations by restricting travel and damaging our network infrastructure or information technology systems, impact the productivity of our workforce, or reduce the demand for our licensed drama series, which may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. For example, the recent outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic has endangered the health of many people residing in China and significantly disrupted travel and the local economy across the country. These events may also materially impact our industry and cause temporary closures of many businesses, including our suppliers and customers, which would severely disrupt our business operations. The COVID-19 epidemic, if it is prolonged, may cause potential filming and production delays on our forthcoming self-produced drama series, and may significantly impact the timing of repayment by our customers and adversely affect their willingness to continue to procure the broadcasting rights of drama series from us, which, in turn, may result in additional impairment losses on our trade receivables and drama series copyrights in the upcoming financial years. Our operations could be further disrupted if any of our employees were suspected of contracting a contagious disease, since this could require us to quarantine some or all of our employees and disinfect the facilities used in our business operations. The development of this epidemic is beyond our control and we expect that if such epidemic continues for a prolonged period of time, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.

RISKS RELATING TO OUR INDUSTRY

Increasingly competitive drama series market in the PRC may result in the reduction of our market share.

The drama series market in the PRC is highly competitive and fragmented, with the top 20 market players accounting for approximately 15.6% of the overall market size in terms of revenue in 2018, according to the Frost & Sullivan Report. We primarily face competition with respect to drama series from other market players with strong sourcing and distribution capabilities. Our competitors may reduce distribution fees or increase production capabilities to obtain market share. Some of our competitors may have greater and broader operational experience and longer relationships with TV channels and other online media platforms than we do. In addition, our competitors may respond more quickly than we can to changes in market demands and preferences. If the content of the drama series we produced and/or distributed to our customers does not meet their expectations, they may engage our competitors and discontinue cooperation with us. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully compete against new or existing competitors and failure to do so may cause our market share to decline, and our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

–51– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

We are subject to the inherent risks of investment in the PRC drama series industry and may experience losses in our investments.

Investment in the PRC drama series industry is speculative and inherently risky. There is no assurance that the cost of production of drama series can be kept within budget. We, as an investor, face the challenge to minimize the cost of production of the drama series while maximizing the revenue.

Unforeseen circumstances during production, such as accidents, cast injuries and health issues, equipment damage or malfunction, damages of films (or digital files thereof), unavailability of filming locations, delay in obtaining the requisite permits, natural disasters and unavailability of actors due to other engagement or a ban from the media industry as a result of their personal behavior such as drug abuse and poor public image, may disrupt the production progress. Any delay or adjustment in production schedule may increase the cost of production, thus reducing our investment revenue. Furthermore, a delay in production schedule may have an impact on the distribution and broadcasting schedule, which may prevent us from maximizing the investment revenue of our drama series, thereby materially and adversely affecting our profitability, business performance and results of operations.

In circumstances where the production cost of the drama series significantly exceeds their budget, we, and other investors in the case of co-investment arrangement, may be required to contribute additional capital. There is no assurance that all of the investors will make such contribution. Failure to obtain additional financial resources for a particular drama series project may result in substantial delay in production progress. There is also the risk that we may not be able to complete the production of the drama series due to the factors that are beyond our control. Any of the above circumstances may result in a loss in our investment and may materially and adversely affect our profitability, business performance and results of operations.

Furthermore, there is no assurance that the drama series will achieve commercial success since the revenue primarily depends on, among others, the popularity, audience preferences and market acceptance of such drama series. The commercial success of a drama series also depends on the quality and market acceptance of other competing drama series released to the audiences during the same period and other factors, all of which cannot be accurately predicted and may be beyond our control. If the drama series we invest in fail to achieve commercial success, our profitability, business performance and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

Our business is subject to a number of laws, regulations and government actions in the PRC.

The drama series market is regulated extensively in China, and our development, marketing, production and distribution of drama series are subject to various PRC laws and regulations. Pursuant to the Administrative Provisions on the Production and Operation of Radio and Television Programs《廣播電視節目製作經營管理規定》 ( promulgated by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television (中華人民共和國國家廣播電影電視總局) on July 19, 2004, which became effective on August 20, 2004, our Consolidated Affiliated Entities are required to obtain the Radio and Television Program Production and Operation Permit (the “Permit”)《廣播電視節目製作經營許可證》 ( ) in order to produce and distribute drama series

–52– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS legally in China. After obtaining the Permit, our Consolidated Affiliated Entities are required to operate their business strictly in accordance with the production and distribution scope approved by the Permit and the relevant PRC laws, regulations and policies. Certain types of content such as those opposing the fundamental principles determined in the constitution of the PRC, compromising the unity, sovereignty or territorial integrity of the State are strictly prohibited.

According to the Administrative Regulations on Radio and Television《廣播電視管理條 ( 例》) promulgated by the State Council on August 11, 1997 and last amended on March 1, 2017, radio and television broadcasting institutions shall not broadcast drama series produced by institutions that did not obtain the Permit. Establishment of a broadcasting and television program production and marketing unit without authorization shall be prohibited by the department of broadcasting and television administration of the government at or above the county level, its special-purpose tools, equipment and program carriers for illegal activities will be confiscated, and it will be subject to a fine of more than RMB10,000 and less than RMB50,000. Production, broadcasting and providing to users abroad of any program containing prohibited contents shall be directed to terminate the production, broadcasting and provision to users abroad, and its program carriers shall be surrendered and taken over, and be subject to a fine of more than RMB10,000 and less than RMB50,000. Where the circumstances are serious, the original approval authority shall revoke its license, and violators of public security provisions shall be penalized for public security violations by the public security authority according to law. Where the offense constitutes a crime, criminal responsibilities shall be investigated according to law. As a result, violation of these laws or regulations may result in penalties, including fines, cancelation of permit and even criminal responsibility.

Our business may also be adversely affected by the changes in national or local policies, as well as the laws, regulations and restrictions relating to our industry, and there can be no assurance that the PRC government will not change the existing laws or regulations, adopt additional or more stringent laws or regulations or impose restrictions applicable to us and our business operations. Any changes to such laws and regulations or their interpretation or enforcement may expose us to the risk of non-compliance and may require us to conform our activities and operations to comply with such laws and regulations. For instance, beginning in the third quarter of 2019 and until early December 2019 (the “Mandatory Celebration Period”), the PRC government has requested that all levels of the media in the PRC, including drama series producers and distributors, shall participate in the nationwide celebration of the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China. During this period, the TV channels at all levels in the PRC were requested to broadcast similar-themed drama series and TV programs. Since most of our drama series involve different themes, such as history, romance, urban and family, some of them had not matched the content preferences of the relevant TV channels during this period. As such, we had not entered into any new broadcasting rights transfer agreement during the Mandatory Celebration Period, which may adversely affect our business and results of operations. We cannot predict the nature of such future laws, regulations, interpretations or applications, nor can we predict their impact on our business.

–53– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

The drama series we produce and distribute are also subject to content censorship imposed by the PRC government.

Pursuant to the applicable laws and regulations in the PRC, the content examination and licensing system and the record-filing and announcing system shall be implemented for drama series by the drama series distribution companies. Please see “Regulatory Overview” in this document for further details. Pursuant to the Provisions on the Administration of Contents of TV Plays (Provisions on Contents)《電視劇內容管理規定》 ( ) and the Administration Measures of Record-filing and Announcement for Filming and Production of Drama Series《電視劇拍攝製作 ( 備案公示管理辦法》), certain content is prohibited from being contained in any drama series in the PRC, such as the content that advocates obscenity, gambling, violence, terrorism, drug-taking, abetting the commission of a crime or imparting methods for committing crimes. The administrative department of radio, film and television, which performs the function of examining the drama series, shall announce that the content of the drama series on which an application has been filed for record-filing and announcement violates any of the provisions mentioned above. In such event, we shall re-apply for censorship after making modifications when the content is deemed not to be in compliance with the related provisions. Furthermore, the TV channels usually examine the content of a drama series before broadcasting and re-broadcasting. In order to obtain censorship approval, we may have to incur additional costs and expenses to revise or re-edit the content of our drama series, which may adversely affect the distribution or broadcasting schedule. In addition, if our drama series fail to obtain censorship approval, we may have to discard the drama series and could incur a complete loss of our investment. If any of the aforesaid situations were to occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

Inability to renew our qualifications, licenses and permits could materially affect our operations and financial performance.

We are required to obtain a number of qualifications, licenses and permits for our business operations in the PRC, especially in relation to our licensing of the broadcasting rights of self-produced and outright-purchased drama series. For example, in accordance with the requirements under applicable PRC laws and regulations, most of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, LiTian TV & Film, LiTian Media, Horgos Tiantian Meimei, Horgos Haohao Xuexi, Tiantian Xiangshang and Xinjiang LiTian, have obtained the Permit during the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date. Please see “Business – Licenses and Permits” for further details. If any of our qualifications, licenses or permits are revoked due to our violation of applicable laws, regulations and rules in respect of the production and content of our drama series, or if we fail to renew any of the qualifications, licenses and permits necessary for our business upon their expiration, we may not be able to continue to produce and distribute drama series and our business and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

We are subject to risks of piracy and copyright infringement.

Due to technological advances and upgrades, acts of piracy and copyright infringement are prevalent in many parts of the world, in particular the PRC. In many instances, as soon as the media content, including drama series and films, were officially released, pirated copies were available in the market. Because of their relatively low prices and the ease of purchase, pirated copies may become the preferred choice of some viewers. Furthermore, illegal downloading of

–54– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS the drama series and films on the Internet is common in the PRC due to (i) the ease of conversion of such media content into digital formats; (ii) the availability of unauthorized copies of such media content on the Internet; and (iii) the difficulty in enforcing intellectual property rights in the PRC. The creation, transmission and sharing of unauthorized copies of drama series and films on the Internet, whether prior to, during or after official release, may materially and adversely affect our business performance and results of operations.

There is no assurance that we will not experience acts of piracy or copyright infringement in the future. As we operate in an industry that relies heavily on creativity and artistic talents to stay competitive, many, if not all, of our work products are subject to intellectual property rights. As such, the use or reproduction of any of our intellectual property without due authorization and the unauthorized broadcast and distribution of our drama series by third parties could result in the loss of viewers and diminish the value of our work products, which, in turn, affect our reputation, competitive advantages or good will and reduce our revenue. While we may, from time to time, rely on a combination of copyright and trademark laws and contractual language to protect our intellectual property rights. They nevertheless afford only limited protection as the intellectual property rights in the PRC are still evolving and preventing of and policing unauthorized use of proprietary information can be difficult and expensive. We may also resort to litigation and other legal proceedings to enforce our intellectual property rights. Any such action could require substantial costs and diversion of our management’s attention and resources, and could create disruptions for our business operations. In order to minimize the risks of piracy and infringement, we may also have to incur significant amount of financial resources and manpower to implement security and anti-piracy measures. We cannot assure you that we will be able to effectively enforce our intellectual property rights or otherwise prevent third parties from unauthorized use and/or reproduction and dissemination of our work products. Failure to detect and adequately protect our intellectual property rights could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

In addition, particularly for the drama series, of which we participate in the production, we are vulnerable to disputes relating to the infringement of intellectual property rights. There is no assurance that we will not face intellectual property claims relating to the creative content of our drama series or disputes over entitlements to intellectual property rights in the future. Any such disputes may result in prolonged legal proceedings, which may divert our management’s attention from our business and cause us to incur substantial costs. If we fail to obtain a favorable outcome in these proceedings, we may be liable for compensation, which may materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. Although we have not encountered any material claims of intellectual property infringement during the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date, there is no assurance that third parties will not make claims against us for infringement of their proprietary rights with regards to the creative content such as scripts and music used in our drama series in the future. Even if we vigorously defend ourselves against such claims and legal proceedings, there is no guarantee that we will be able to prevail. Such legal proceedings may also be accompanied by court orders, which prevent us, temporarily or permanently, from using such creative content. In the event this occurs, our business operations may be disrupted and our results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

RISKS RELATING TO CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENT

If the PRC government finds that the Contractual Arrangements do not comply with applicable PRC laws and regulations, or if the regulations or their interpretations change in the future, we could be subject to severe consequences, including penalties, the nullification of the Contractual Arrangements and the relinquishment of our interest in our Consolidated Affiliated Entities.

We are a company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, and LiTian WFOE, which is our PRC subsidiary, is considered a foreign-invested enterprise under the PRC laws. To comply with the PRC laws and regulations, we conduct our businesses in the PRC through our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, based on the Contractual Arrangements entered into by among others, LiTian WFOE, our Consolidated Affiliated Entities and the Registered Shareholders. Such Contractual Arrangements enable us to: (i) receive substantial all of the economic benefits from the consideration for the service provided by LiTian WFOE; (ii) have the power to appoint directors and vote on behalf of the Registered Shareholders on all matters of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities that require shareholder’s approval; (iii) hold pledge of all of the equity interest in our Consolidated Affiliated Entities; and (iv) have an exclusive option to purchase or designate a third party to purchase all or part of the equity interest in our Consolidated Affiliated Entities when and to the extent permitted by the PRC laws. The Contractual Arrangements allow the results of operations and assets and liabilities of LiTian TV & Film and its subsidiaries to be consolidated into our results of operations and assets and liabilities under IFRS as if they were wholly-owned subsidiaries of our Group. Please see “Contractual Arrangements — Operation of the Contractual Arrangements” in this document for details.

Our PRC Legal Advisors are of the opinion that (i) the ownership structure of LiTian WFOE and our Consolidated Affiliated Entities does not violate prevailing PRC laws and regulations, (ii) except for certain clauses regarding the remedies that may be awarded by the arbitration tribunal and the power of courts in Hong Kong and the Cayman Islands to grant interim remedies in support of the arbitration and liquidation arrangement of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, the Contractual Arrangements, taken individually or collectively, are valid, legally binding and enforceable against each party of such agreements in accordance with their terms, and (iii) the Contractual Arrangements do not fall within any of the circumstances (including, without limitation, “concealing illegal intentions with a lawful form”) under Article 52 of the Contract Law of the People’s Republic of China《中華人民共和國合同法》 ( ), promulgated by the NPC on March 15, 1999 and implemented on October 1, 1999 (the “Contract Law”), pursuant to which the contracts would be determined to be invalid. However, there can be no assurance that the PRC government authorities will take a view in the future that is not contrary to or otherwise different from the opinion of our PRC Legal Advisors stated above, and there is also the possibility that the PRC government authorities may adopt new laws and regulations in the future which may invalidate the Contractual Arrangements. If the PRC government determines that we are in violation of PRC laws or regulations or lack the necessary permits or licenses to operate our business, the relevant PRC regulatory authorities, including the MOFCOM, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, the NDRC, State Administration for Industry and Commerce, SAFE and NRTA, would have broad discretion in dealing with such violations or failures, including, but not limited to:

• revoking our business and operating licenses;

–56– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

• discontinuing or restricting our operations;

• imposing fines or confiscating any of our income that they deem to have been obtained through illegal operations;

• imposing conditions or requirements with which we or LiTian WFOE and our Consolidated Affiliated Entities may not be able to comply;

• requiring us or LiTian WFOE and our Consolidated Affiliated Entities to restructure the relevant ownership structure or operations;

• restricting or prohibiting our use of the [REDACTED] from the [REDACTED]or other of our financing activities to finance the business and operations of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities and their respective subsidiaries; or

• taking other regulatory or enforcement actions that could be harmful to our business.

Any of these actions could cause significant disruption to our business operations, and may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, it is unclear what impact the PRC government actions would have on us and on our ability to consolidate the financial results of LiTian TV & Film and its subsidiaries in our consolidated financial statements, if the PRC governmental authorities find our legal structure and contractual arrangements to be in violation of PRC laws, rules and regulations. If any of these penalties results in our inability to direct the activities of LiTian TV & Film and its subsidiaries that most significantly impact their economic performance and/or our failure to receive the economic benefits from LiTian TV & Film and its subsidiaries, we may not be able to consolidate LiTian TV & Film and its subsidiaries into our consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS.

Substantial uncertainties exist with the PRC foreign investment legal regime may have a significant impact on our Group’s corporate structure and business operations.

On March 15, 2019, the NPC adopted the Foreign Investment Law, which will come into effect on January 1, 2020. Upon its coming into effect, the Foreign Investment Law will replace the Chinese Foreign Equity Joint Ventures Law《中華人民共和國中外合資經營企業法》 ( ), the Chinese Foreign Contractual Joint Ventures Law《中華人民共和國中外合作經營企業法》 ( ) and the Wholly Foreign-Owned Enterprises Law《中華人民共和國外資企業法》 ( ) to become the legal foundation for foreign investment in the PRC. The Foreign Investment Law stipulates three forms of foreign investment. However, the Foreign Investment Law does not explicitly stipulate the contractual arrangements as a form of foreign investment.

Notwithstanding the above, the Foreign Investment Law stipulates that foreign investment includes ‘‘foreign investors invest through any other methods under laws, administrative regulations or provisions prescribed by the PRC State Council’’. Therefore, there are possibilities that future laws, administrative regulations or provisions prescribed by the PRC State Council may regard contractual arrangements as a form of foreign investment, and

–57– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS then whether our Contractual Arrangements will be recognized as foreign investment, whether our Contractual Arrangements will be deemed to be in violation of the foreign investment access requirements and how the Contractual Arrangements will be handled are uncertain. Therefore, there is no guarantee that our Contractual Arrangements and the business of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities will not be materially and adversely affected in the future.

In the extreme case, we may be required to unwind the Contractual Arrangements and/or dispose of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, which could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial conditions and result of operations. In the event that our Company no longer has a sustainable business after the aforementioned terminating of our Contractual Arrangements or disposal or such measures are not complied with, the Stock Exchange may take enforcement actions against us which may have a material adverse effect on the [REDACTED] of our Shares or even result in [REDACTED] of our Company.

For details of the Foreign Investment Law and its potential impact on our Group’s operation, please see “Contractual Arrangements — Development in the PRC Legislation on Foreign Investment” in this document.

Our Contractual Arrangements may not be as effective in providing operational control as direct ownership. LiTian TV & Film or the Registered Shareholders may fail to perform their obligations under our Contractual Arrangements.

Due to the PRC restrictions or prohibitions on foreign ownership of certain businesses in the PRC, we operate our businesses in the PRC through our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, in which we have no ownership interest. We rely on the Contractual Arrangements with LiTian TV & Film and the Registered Shareholders to control and operate the businesses of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities. These Contractual Arrangements are intended to provide us with effective control over our Consolidated Affiliated Entities and allow us to obtain economic benefits from them. Please see “Contractual Arrangements — Operation of the Contractual Arrangements” in this document for details.

We have been advised by our PRC Legal Advisors that, except for certain clauses regarding remedies that may be awarded by the arbitration tribunal and the power of courts in Hong Kong and the PRC to grant interim remedies in support of the arbitration and liquidation arrangement of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, the Contractual Arrangements, taken individually or collectively, are valid, legally binding and enforceable against each party of such agreements in accordance with their terms. However, there can be no assurance that the PRC governmental authorities will take a view in the future that is not contrary to or otherwise different from the opinion of our PRC Legal Advisors stated above, and there is also the possibility that the PRC governmental authorities may adopt new laws and regulations in the future which may invalidate the Contractual Arrangements. These Contractual Arrangements may not be as effective in providing control over LiTian TV & Film as direct ownership. For example, if we had direct ownership of LiTian TV & Film, we, as a shareholder, would be able to exercise our rights to change the composition of the board of directors of LiTian TV & Film, which in turn would allow us to effect changes, subject to any applicable fiduciary duties, at the management level. However, under the Contractual Arrangements, if LiTian TV & Film or the Registered Shareholders fail to perform their respective obligations under the Contractual Arrangements, we are not able to exercise shareholders’ rights to direct the corporate actions as

–58– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS the director ownership would otherwise entail, as a result of which we may be unable to maintain effective control over the operations of LiTian TV & Film and its subsidiaries. We may also incur substantial costs and expend substantial resources to enforce our rights. All of the Contractual Arrangements are governed by and interpreted in accordance with PRC laws, and disputes arising from the Contractual Arrangements will be resolved through arbitration or litigation in China. However, the legal system in China is not as developed as in other jurisdictions, such as the United States. There are very few precedents and little official guidance as to how contractual arrangements in the context of a variable interest entity should be interpreted or enforced under PRC laws. There remain significant uncertainties regarding the outcome of arbitration or litigation. Such uncertainties could limit our ability to enforce these Contractual Arrangements. In the event we are unable to enforce the Contractual Arrangements or we experience significant delays or other obstacles in the process of enforcing the Contractual Arrangements, we may not be able to exert effective control over our Consolidated Affiliated Entities and may lose control over the assets owned by our Consolidated Affiliated Entities. As a result, we may be unable to consolidate the financial results of the Consolidated Affiliated Entities in our consolidated financial statements, and our ability to conduct our business may be adversely affected.

We may lose the ability to use and enjoy assets held by our Consolidated Affiliated Entities that are material to our business operations if our Consolidated Affiliated Entities declare bankruptcy or become subject to a dissolution or liquidation proceeding.

We do not have priority pledges and liens against the assets of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities. If LiTian TV & Film undergoes an involuntary liquidation proceeding, third-party creditors may claim rights to some or all of its assets and we may not have priority against such third-party creditors on the assets of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities. If our Consolidated Affiliated Entities liquidate, we may take part in the liquidation procedures as a general creditor under the PRC Enterprise Bankruptcy Law and recover any outstanding liabilities owed by LiTian TV & Film to LiTian WFOE under the applicable service agreement.

Under the Contractual Arrangements, the Registered Shareholders covenanted that they shall not sell, transfer, pledge or dispose of in any other manner the legal or beneficial interest in LiTian TV & Film, or allow the encumbrance thereon of any security interest, except for the Equity Pledge Agreement, without the written consent of LiTian WFOE. In addition, the Registered Shareholders covenanted that they relinquish the right of collecting dividends or profits from LiTian TV & Film, including the undistributed after-tax profits, without the prior written consent of LiTian WFOE. In the event that they receive any income, profit distribution or dividend, except as otherwise determined by us, they shall promptly transfer or pay, as part of the services fee under the Exclusive Consultation and Service Agreement, such income, profit distribution or dividend to us or any other person designated by us to the extent permitted under applicable PRC laws. In the event that the Registered Shareholders breach the relevant covenants, we may need to resort to legal proceedings to enforce the terms of the Contractual Arrangements. Any such legal proceeding may be costly and may divert our management’s time and attention away from the operation of our business, and the outcome of such legal proceeding is uncertain.

–59– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

The Registered Shareholders and directors of LiTian TV & Film may have conflicts of interest with us, which may materially and adversely affect our business.

The Registered Shareholders and directors of LiTian TV & Film may have conflicts of interest with us. We rely on these individuals to abide by the laws of the Cayman Islands which impose fiduciary duties upon directors and officers of our Company. Such duties include the duty to act bona fide in what they consider to be in the best interest of our Company as a whole and not to place them in a position in which there is a conflict between their duties to our Company and their personal interests. On the other hand, PRC laws also provide that a director or a senior manager owes a loyalty and fiduciary duty to the company in which he or she holds such position. We cannot assure you that when conflicts arise, the Registered Shareholders or directors of LiTian TV & Film will act in the best interest of our Company or that conflicts will be resolved in our favor. These individuals may breach or cause LiTian TV & Film to breach the existing Contractual Arrangements. If we cannot resolve any conflicts of interest or disputes between us and these shareholders or directors, we would have to rely on legal proceedings, which may be expensive, time-consuming and disruptive to our operations. There is also substantial uncertainty as to the outcome of any such legal proceedings.

If we exercise the option to acquire equity ownership or assets of the Consolidated Affiliated Entities, the ownership or asset transfer may subject us to certain limitations and substantial costs.

Pursuant to the Contractual Arrangements, LiTian WFOE or its designated third party has the irrevocable and exclusive right to purchase all or any part of the equity interests in LiTian TV & Film from the Registered Shareholders at any time and from time to time in the LiTian WFOE’s absolute discretion to the extent permitted by PRC laws for free or at the lowest price as permitted under applicable PRC laws. The equity transfer may be subject to the approvals from, or filings with, the MOFCOM, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the SAIC and/or their local competent counterparts. In addition, in the event that the relevant PRC authorities determine that the purchase price for acquiring the equity interest in LiTian TV & Film is below the market value, LiTian WFOE or its designated third party may be required to pay EIT with reference to the market value. Such amount of tax may be substantial and could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our Contractual Arrangements may be subject to scrutiny by the PRC tax authorities, and a finding that we owe additional taxes could substantially reduce our profit and the value of your investment.

Under PRC laws and regulations, arrangements and transactions among related parties may be subject to audit or challenge by the PRC tax authorities. We could face material and adverse tax consequences if the PRC tax authorities determine that the Contractual Arrangements among LiTian WFOE and our Consolidated Affiliated Entities do not represent an arms-length price and adjust our Consolidated Affiliated Entities’ income in the form of a transfer pricing adjustment. A transfer pricing adjustment could, among other things, result in a reduction, for PRC tax purposes, of expense deductions recorded by our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, which could in turn increase their tax liabilities. In addition, the PRC tax authorities may impose late payment fees and other penalties to our PRC variable interest entities for under-paid taxes. Our results of operations may be materially and adversely affected if our tax liabilities increase or if we are found to be subject to late payment fees or other penalties.

Certain terms of our Contractual Arrangements may not be enforceable under PRC laws.

Our Contractual Arrangements provide for dispute resolution by way of arbitration in accordance with the arbitration rules of the South China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission (Shenzhen Court of International Arbitration) in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, the PRC. Our Contractual Arrangements provide that the arbitral body may award remedies over the equity interests, property interests and/or assets of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, injunctive relief or order of winding up of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities. In addition, our Contractual Arrangements stipulate that the courts in Hong Kong and the PRC are empowered to grant interim remedies in support of the arbitration pending the formation of an arbitral tribunal. However, we have been advised by our PRC Legal Advisors that the above-mentioned provisions contained in the Contractual Arrangements may not be enforceable. Under the PRC laws, an arbitral body does not have the power to grant any injunctive relief or provisional or final winding-up order to preserve the assets of or any equity interest in our Consolidated Affiliated Entities in case of disputes. Therefore, such remedies may not be available to us, notwithstanding the relevant contractual provisions contained in our Contractual Arrangements. The PRC laws allow an arbitral body to award the transfer of assets of or equity interest in our Consolidated Affiliated Entities in favor of an aggrieved party. In the event of non-compliance with such award, enforcement measures may be sought from the court. However, the court may or may not support the award of an arbitral body when deciding whether to take enforcement measures. Under the PRC laws, courts of judicial authorities in the PRC generally would not grant injunctive relief or the winding-up order against our Consolidated Affiliated Entities as interim remedies to preserve the assets or equity interests in favor of any aggrieved party. Our PRC Legal Advisors are also of the view that, notwithstanding the relevant dispute resolution provisions contained in our Contractual Arrangements, which do not violate any mandatory provisions of the PRC laws and regulations, the arbitration or the interim remedies by relative arbitral body or overseas regional courts may not be recognized or enforced by the PRC courts in practice. As a result, in the event that our Consolidated Affiliated Entities or any of the Registered Shareholders breaches any of our Contractual Arrangements, we may not be able to obtain sufficient remedies in a timely manner, and our ability to exert effective control over our Consolidated Affiliated Entities and conduct our business could be materially and adversely affected. Please see “Contractual Arrangements — Dispute Resolution” in this document for details regarding the enforceability of the dispute resolution provisions in our Contractual Arrangements as opined by our PRC Legal Advisors.

RISKS RELATING TO CONDUCTING BUSINESS IN THE PRC

Adverse changes in PRC economic, political and social conditions as well as government policies could materially and adversely affect our business and prospects.

All of our operations are located in China. Accordingly, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced to a significant degree by political, economic and social conditions in China generally and by continued economic growth in China as a whole.

–61– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

The Chinese economy differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including the amount of government involvement, level of development, growth rate, control of foreign exchange and allocation of resources. Although the Chinese government has implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, the reduction of state ownership of productive assets and the establishment of improved corporate governance in business enterprises, a substantial portion of productive assets in China is still owned by the government. In addition, the Chinese government continues to play a significant role in regulating industry development by imposing industrial policies. The Chinese government also exercises significant control over China’s economic growth through allocating resources, controlling payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and providing preferential treatment to particular industries or companies.

While the Chinese economy has experienced significant growth over the past decades, growth has been uneven, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy. The Chinese government has implemented various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of resources. Some of these measures may benefit the overall Chinese economy, but may have a negative effect on us. For example, our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected by government control over capital investments or changes in tax regulations. In addition, in the past the Chinese government has implemented certain measures, including interest rate increases, to control the pace of economic growth. These measures may cause decreased economic activity in China and, since 2012, the Chinese economy has slowed down. Any prolonged slowdown in the Chinese economy may reduce the demand for our services and may materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Uncertainties in the interpretation and enforcement of PRC laws and regulations could limit the legal protections available to you and us.

The PRC legal system is based on written statutes. Unlike common law systems, it is a system in which legal cases have limited value as precedents. In the late 1970s, the PRC government began to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws and regulations governing economic matters in general. The overall effect of legislation over the past three decades has significantly increased the protections afforded to various forms of foreign or private-sector investment in China. Our subsidiaries are subject to various PRC laws and regulations generally applicable to companies in China. However, since these laws and regulations are relatively new and the PRC legal system continues to rapidly evolve, the interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules are not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involves uncertainties.

In particular, PRC laws and regulations concerning the film and television industry and Internet-related industries are developing and evolving. Although we have taken measures to comply with the laws and regulations that are applicable to our business operations and avoid conducting any non-compliant activities under the applicable laws and regulations, the PRC governmental authorities may promulgate new laws and regulations regulating the media industry and Internet-related industries in the future. We cannot assure you that our practice would not be deemed to violate any new PRC laws or regulations relating to the media industry and Internet-related industries. Moreover, developments in the media industry and Internet-related industries may lead to changes in PRC laws, regulations and policies or in the interpretation and application of existing laws, regulations and policies that may limit or restrict us, which could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

–62– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

From time to time, we may have to resort to administrative and court proceedings to enforce our legal rights. However, since PRC administrative and court authorities have significant discretion in interpreting and implementing statutory and contractual terms, it may be more difficult to evaluate the outcome of administrative and court proceedings and the level of legal protection we enjoy than in more developed legal systems. Furthermore, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules (some of which are not published in a timely manner or at all) that may have retroactive effect. As a result, we may not be aware of our violation of these policies and rules until sometime after the violation. Such uncertainties, including uncertainty over the scope and effect of our contractual, property (including intellectual property) and procedural rights, and any failure to respond to changes in the regulatory environment in China could materially and adversely affect our business and impede our ability to continue our operations.

We may be classified as a “PRC resident enterprise” for PRC enterprise income tax purposes, which could result in unfavorable tax consequences to us and our shareholders and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and the value of your investment.

Under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law and its implementation rules, an enterprise established outside of the PRC with a “de facto management body” within the PRC is considered a resident enterprise and will be subject to the enterprise income tax on its global income at the rate of 25%. The implementation rules define the term “de facto management body” as the body that exercises full and substantial control over and overall management of the business, production, personnel, accounts and properties of an enterprise. In April 2009, the SAT issued a circular, known as Circular 82, which provides certain specific criteria for determining whether the “de facto management body” of a PRC-controlled enterprise that is incorporated offshore is located in China. Although this circular only applies to offshore enterprises controlled by PRC enterprises or PRC enterprise groups, not those controlled by PRC individuals or foreigners, the criteria set forth in the circular may reflect the SAT’s general position on how the “de facto management body” test should be applied in determining the tax resident status of all offshore enterprises. According to Circular 82, an offshore-incorporated enterprise controlled by a PRC enterprise or a PRC enterprise group will be regarded as a PRC tax resident by virtue of having its “de facto management body” in China and will be subject to PRC enterprise income tax on its global income only if all of the following conditions are met: (i) the primary location of the day-to-day operational management is in the PRC; (ii) decisions relating to the enterprise’s financial and human resource matters are made or are subject to approval by organizations or personnel in the PRC; (iii) the enterprise’s primary assets, accounting books and records, company seals and board and shareholder resolutions are located or maintained in the PRC; and (iv) at least 50% of voting board members or senior executives habitually reside in the PRC.

We believe none of our entities outside of China is a PRC resident enterprise for PRC tax purposes. However, the tax resident status of an enterprise is subject to determination by the PRC tax authorities and uncertainties remain with respect to the interpretation of the term “de facto management body.” As substantially all of our management members are based in China, it remains unclear how the tax residency rule will apply to our case. If the PRC tax authorities determine that we or any of our subsidiaries outside of China is a PRC resident enterprise for PRC enterprise income tax purposes, then we or such subsidiary could be subject to PRC tax at a rate of 25% on its world-wide income, which could materially reduce our net income. In

–63– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS addition, we will also be subject to EIT reporting obligations. Furthermore, if the PRC tax authorities determine that we are a PRC resident enterprise for EIT purposes, gains realized on the sale or other disposition of our ordinary Shares may be subject to PRC tax, at a rate of 10% in the case of non-PRC enterprises or 20% in the case of non-PRC individuals (in each case, subject to the provisions of any applicable tax treaty), if such gains are deemed to be from PRC sources. It is unclear whether non-PRC shareholders of our company would be able to claim the benefits of any tax treaties between their country of tax residence and the PRC in the event that we are treated as a PRC resident enterprise. Any such tax may reduce the returns on your investment in our Shares.

The heightened scrutiny over acquisition transactions by the PRC tax authorities may have an adverse impact on our business operations, our acquisition or restructuring strategies, or the value of your investment in us.

The SAT issued a Public Notice Regarding Certain Enterprise Income Tax Matters on Indirect Transfer of Properties by Non-tax Resident Enterprises《國家稅務總局關於非居民企業 ( 間接轉讓財產企業所得稅若干問題的公告》), or SAT Circular 7, on February 3, 2015. The Notices on Issues Concerning the Foreign Exchange Administration for Domestic Individuals Participating in Stock Incentive Plans of Overseas Publicly Listed Companies, or SAFE Circular 7, extends its tax jurisdiction not only indirect transfers, but also transactions involving transfers of other taxable assets, through the offshore transfers of a foreign intermediate holding company. In addition, SAT Circular 7 provides the criteria regarding how to assess reasonable commercial purposes, and has introduced safe harbors for internal group restructurings as well as the purchase and sale of equity through a public securities market. SAT Circular 7 also brings challenges to both the foreign transferor and transferee (or other person who is obligated to pay for the transfer) of the taxable assets. Where a non-resident enterprise conducts an “indirect transfer” by transferring the taxable assets indirectly through disposition of the equity interest of an overseas holding company, the non-resident enterprise, being the transferor or the transferee, or the PRC entity which directly owns the taxable assets, may report such transfer to the relevant tax authority. Using the “substance over form” principle, the PRC tax authority may re-characterize such indirect transfer as a direct transfer of the equity interests in the PRC tax resident enterprise and other properties in the PRC. As a result, the gains derived from such indirect transfer may be subject to the EIT, and the transferee or other person who is obligated to pay for the transfer is required to withhold the applicable taxes, currently at a rate of up to 10.0% for the transfer of equity interests in a PRC resident enterprise. Both the transferor and the transferee may be subject to penalties under the PRC tax laws if the transferee fails to without the taxes and the transferor fails to pay the taxes.

On October 17, 2017, the SAT issued the Circular on the Source of Deduction of Income Tax for Non-resident Enterprises《國家稅務總局關於非居民企業所得稅源泉扣繳有關問題的公告》 ( ), or SAT Circular 37, which became effective on December 1, 2017, and abolished certain provisions in SAT Circular 7. Pursuant to SAT Circular 37, where the party responsible to deduct such income tax did not or was unable to make such deduction, the non-resident enterprise receiving such income should declare and pay the taxes that should have been deducted to the relevant tax authority. The taxable gains is calculated as the income from such transfer, net of the net book value of the equity interest.

–64– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

We face uncertainties with respect to the reporting and consequences of private equity financing transactions, share exchanges or other transactions involving the transfers of the shares in our company by investors that are non-resident enterprises, or the sale or purchase of shares in other non-resident enterprises or other taxable assets by us. Under SAT Circular 7, the non-resident enterprises of our Group may be subject to filing or tax obligations if they are the transferor in such transactions, and may be subject to withholding obligations if they are the transferees in such transactions. For the transfer of the shares in our Company by investors that are non-resident enterprises, our PRC subsidiaries may be requested to assist in the filing under SAT Circular 7. As a result, we may be required to expend valuable resources to comply with SAT Circular 7 or to request the relevant transferor from whom we purchase the taxable assets to comply with these circulars, or to establish that the non-resident enterprises of our Group should not be taxed under these circulars. The PRC tax authorities have the discretion under SAT Circular 7 to make adjustments to the taxable capital gains based on the difference between the fair value of the taxable assets transferred and the cost of investment. If the PRC tax authorities make adjusted to the taxable income of the transactions under SAT Circular 7, our income tax costs associated with such transactions will likely increase, which may materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. We may conduct acquisitions in the future. Heightened scrutiny over the acquisition transactions by the PRC tax authorities may have a negative impact on potential acquisitions we may consider and pursue going forward.

We face foreign exchange risk, and fluctuations in exchange rates could have an adverse effect on our business and investors’ investments.

The value of the Renminbi has been under pressure of appreciation in recent years. Due to international pressure on the PRC to allow more flexible exchange rates for the Renminbi, the economic situation and financial market developments in the PRC and abroad and the balance of payments situation in the PRC, the PRC government has decided to proceed further with reform of the Renminbi exchange rate regime and to enhance the Renminbi exchange rate flexibility.

A majority of our revenue and our expenses are denominated in Renminbi. We rely entirely on dividends and other fees paid to us by our PRC subsidiary and Consolidated Affiliated Entities. Any appreciation or depreciation in the value of the Renminbi or other foreign currencies that our operations are exposed to will affect our business in different ways. Any significant change in the exchange rates of the Hong Kong dollar against Renminbi may materially and adversely affect the value of, and any dividends payable on, our Shares in Hong Kong dollar. An appreciation of Renminbi against the Hong Kong dollar would also result in foreign currency translation losses for financial reporting purposes when we translate our Hong Kong dollar denominated financial assets into Renminbi, as Renminbi is the functional currency of our subsidiaries and Consolidated Affiliated Entities inside China. Conversely, if we decide convert our Renminbi into Hong Kong dollar for the purpose of making payments for dividends on our Shares or for other business purposes, appreciation of the Hong Kong dollar against Renminbi would have a negative effect on the Hong Kong dollar amount available to us. In such events, our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

PRC governmental control and restrictions on the convertibility of Renminbi may affect the value of your investment.

The PRC government imposes controls and restrictions on the convertibility of the Renminbi into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of the PRC. The majority of our income is received in Renminbi and shortages in the availability of foreign currencies may restrict our ability to pay dividends or other payments, or otherwise satisfy their foreign currency denominated obligations, if any. Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and expenditures from trade-related transactions, can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from SAFE, by complying with certain procedural requirements. Approval from appropriate government authorities is required where Renminbi is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of the PRC to pay capital expenses such as the repayment of loans denominated in foreign currencies. The PRC government may, at its discretion, impose restrictions on access to foreign currencies for current account transactions and if this occurs in the future, we may not be able to pay dividends in foreign currencies to our Shareholders.

Inflation in the PRC could materially and adversely affect our profitability and growth.

The economy of China has been experiencing significant growth, leading to inflation and increased labor costs. According to the National Bureau of Statistics of China, the year-on-year percentage change in the consumer price index in China was 2.9% from 2018 to 2019. China’s overall economy and the average wage in the PRC are expected to continue to grow. Future increases in China’s inflation and material increases in the cost of labor may materially and adversely affect our profitability and results of operations.

PRC regulation of loans to and direct investments in PRC entities by offshore holding companies may delay or prevent us from using the [REDACTED] of the [REDACTED] to make loans or additional capital contributions to our subsidiaries, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.

Any funds we transfer to our PRC subsidiaries, either as a shareholder loan or as an increase in registered capital, are subject to approval by or registration with relevant governmental authorities in China. According to the relevant PRC regulations on foreign-invested enterprises in China, the increasing of capital contributions to our PRC subsidiaries is subject to the approval of or filing with the MOFCOM or its local branches and registration with other governmental authorities in China. In addition, (i) any foreign loan procured by our PRC subsidiaries is required to be registered with the SAFE or its local branches, and (ii) our PRC subsidiaries may not procure loans which exceed a statutory limit. We may not be able to complete such recording or registrations on a timely basis, if at all, with respect to future capital contributions or foreign loans by us directly to our PRC subsidiaries. If we fail to complete such recording or registration, our ability to use the [REDACTED]ofthe [REDACTED] and to capitalize our PRC operations may be adversely affected, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.

We may be subject to penalties, including restriction on our ability to inject capital into our PRC subsidiaries and our PRC subsidiaries’ ability to distribute profits to us, if our PRC resident shareholders or beneficial owners fail to comply with relevant PRC foreign exchange regulations.

The SAFE has promulgated several regulations that require PRC residents and PRC corporate entities to register with and obtain approval from local branches of the SAFE in connection with their direct or indirect offshore investment activities. The Circular on Relevant Issues Relating to Domestic Resident’s Investment and Financing and Roundtrip Investment through Special Purpose Vehicles, or SAFE Circular 37, was promulgated by the SAFE in July 2014 which requires PRC residents or entities to register with the SAFE or its local branch in connection with their establishment or control of an offshore entity established for the purpose of overseas investment or financing. These regulations apply to our shareholders who are PRC residents and may apply to any offshore acquisitions that we make in the future.

Under these foreign exchange regulations, PRC residents who make, or have previously made, prior to the implementation of these foreign exchange regulations, direct or indirect investments in offshore companies are required to register those investments. In addition, any PRC resident who is a direct or indirect shareholder of an offshore company is required to update the previously filed registration with the local branch of the SAFE, with respect to that offshore company, to reflect any material change involving its round-trip investment, capital variation, such as an increase or decrease in capital, transfer or swap of shares, merger or division. If any PRC shareholder fails to make the required registration or update the previously filed registration, the PRC subsidiary of that offshore parent company may be restricted from distributing its profits and the proceeds from any reduction in capital, share transfer or liquidation to its offshore parent company, and the offshore parent company may also be restricted from injecting additional capital into its PRC subsidiary. Moreover, failure to comply with the various foreign exchange registration requirements described above could result in liability under PRC laws for evasion of applicable foreign exchange restrictions.

We have requested PRC residents holding direct or indirect interest in our Company to our knowledge to make the necessary applications, filings and amendments as required by applicable foreign exchange regulations. However, we may not be fully informed of the identities of all our shareholders or beneficial owners who are PRC residents and, therefore, we may not be able to identify all our shareholders or beneficial owners who are PRC residents to ensure their compliance with Circular 37 or other related regulations. In addition, we cannot provide any assurance that all of our shareholders and beneficial owners who are PRC residents will comply with our request to make, obtain or update any applicable registrations or comply with other requirements required by Circular 37 or other related regulations in a timely manner. Failure by any such Shareholders to comply with Circular 37 or other related regulations could subject us to fines or legal sanctions, restrict our investment activities in the PRC and overseas or cross-border investment activities, limit our subsidiaries’ ability to make distributions, pay dividends or other payments to us or affect our ownership structure, which could materially and adversely affect our business and prospects.

Failure to comply with PRC regulations regarding the registration requirements for employee share ownership plans or share option plans may subject the PRC plan participants or us to fines and other legal or administrative sanctions.

In February 2012, the SAFE promulgated SAFE Circular 7 replacing the previous rules issued by the SAFE in March 2007. Under SAFE Circular 7 and other relevant rules and regulations, PRC residents who participate in a stock incentive plan in an overseas publicly listed company are required to register with the SAFE or its local branches and complete certain other procedures. Participants of a stock incentive plan who are PRC residents must retain a qualified PRC agent, which could be a PRC subsidiary of the overseas publicly listed company or another qualified institution selected by the PRC subsidiary, to conduct the SAFE registration and other procedures with respect to the stock incentive plan on behalf of its participants. The participants must also retain an overseas entrusted institution to handle matters in connection with their exercise of stock options, the purchase and sale of corresponding stocks or interests and fund transfers. In addition, the PRC agent is required to amend the SAFE registration with respect to the stock incentive plan if there is any material change to the stock incentive plan, the PRC agent or the overseas entrusted institution or other material changes. In addition, SAFE Circular 37 stipulates that PRC residents who participate in a share incentive plan of an overseas non-publicly listed special purpose company may register with the SAFE or its local branches before they exercise the share options. We and our PRC employees who have been granted share options and restricted shares are subject to these regulations. Failure of our PRC share option holders or restricted shareholders to complete their SAFE registrations may subject these PRC residents to fines of up to RMB300,000 for entities and up to RMB50,000 for individuals and legal sanctions and may also limit our ability to contribute additional capital into our PRC subsidiary, limit our PRC subsidiary’s ability to distribute dividends to us, or otherwise materially adversely affect our business.

The SAT has also issued relevant rules and regulations concerning employee share incentives. Under these rules and regulations, our employees working in the PRC will be subject to PRC individual income tax upon exercise of the share options or grant of the restricted shares. Our PRC subsidiaries have obligations to file documents with respect to the granted share options or restricted shares with relevant tax authorities and to withhold individual income taxes for their employees upon exercise of the share options or grant of the restricted shares. If our employees fail to pay or we fail to withhold their individual income taxes according to relevant rules and regulations, we may face sanctions imposed by the competent governmental authorities.

Certain judgments obtained against us by our shareholders may not be enforceable.

We are an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands and substantially all of our assets are located in China and substantially all of our current operations are conducted in China as well. In addition, a majority of our current directors and officers are nationals and residents of China and substantially all of the assets of these persons are located in China. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for you to effect service of process within Hong Kong upon us or these persons, or to bring an action in Hong Kong against us or against these individuals in the event that you believe that your rights have been infringed under the applicable securities laws or otherwise. In addition, because there are no clear statutory and judicial interpretations or guidance on a PRC court’s jurisdiction over cases brought under

RISKS RELATING TO THE [REDACTED]

There has not been any prior public market for our Shares and there can be no assurance that an active market would develop.

Prior to the [REDACTED], no public market for our Shares existed. Following the completion of the [REDACTED], the [REDACTED] will be the only market on which the Shares are publicly [REDACTED].

The [REDACTED] at which our Shares will [REDACTED] after the [REDACTED] will be determined by the marketplace, which may be influenced by many factors, some of which are beyond our control, including:

• our financial results;

• changes in securities analysts’ estimates, if any, of our financial performance;

• the history of, and the prospects for, us and the industry in which we compete;

• an assessment of our management, our past and present operations, and the prospects for, and timing of, our future revenues and cost structures such as the views of independent research analysts, if any;

• the present state of our development;

• the valuation of publicly [REDACTED] companies that are engaged in business activities similar to ours;

• general market sentiment regarding media industry and companies;

As a result, investors in our Shares may experience volatility in the [REDACTED] of their Shares and a decrease in the value of their Shares regardless of our operating performance or prospects.

Because the initial public [REDACTED] per Share is higher than the net tangible book value per Share, purchasers of our Shares in the [REDACTED] will experience immediate dilution.

The [REDACTED] of our Shares is higher than the net tangible book value per Share immediately prior to the [REDACTED]. Therefore, purchasers of our Shares in the [REDACTED] will experience an immediate dilution in pro forma adjusted consolidated net tangible asset value and existing Shareholders will receive an increase in the pro forma adjusted consolidated net tangible asset value per Share of their Shares. If the [REDACTED], on behalf of the [REDACTED], exercises the [REDACTED] or if we obtain additional capital in the future through equity offerings, purchasers of our [REDACTED] may experience further dilution.

[REDACTED] of substantial amounts of Shares in the [REDACTED] after the completion of the [REDACTED], or the perception that these sales could occur, could adversely affect the [REDACTED] of our Shares and could materially impair our future ability to raise capital through [REDACTED] of our Shares. The Shares owned by our Controlling Shareholders are subject to certain [REDACTED] periods. There can be no assurance that they will not dispose of these Shares following the expiration of the [REDACTED] periods, or any Shares they may come to own in the future.

OVERVIEW OF THE DRAMA SERIES MARKET IN CHINA

Definition and Segmentation of the Drama Series Market in China

The drama series market in China consists of two sub-segments, namely, TV series market and web series market. According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, TV series is a type of drama series for which the distribution license is issued by the NRTA. Normally, TV series can be distributed to both the TV channels and online media platforms. Web series, on the other hand, is another type of drama series that is only broadcast on the Internet media platforms. It is normally produced by third-party professional drama series production companies or the Internet media platforms.

Operation Process of Drama Series

According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, the operation process of the drama series typically comprises investment, production, distribution and broadcasting.

Value Chain Analysis of the Drama Series Market

–86– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

Initiated by the producers or investors who purchase the copyrights of the stories or IPs, drama series production starts from IP reservation and transaction, as well as project fund-raising. Producers play a crucial role in coordinating with multiple parties, including filming crew, directors, actors, as well as various potential distribution channels. Large drama series production companies usually have their own distribution teams and have built long-term relationships with TV channels and online media platforms to ensure that the produced drama series can be delivered to the audience via diverse channels.

Revenue and Cost Structure

Revenue of drama series is mainly generated from copyright licensing and advertising. Copyright licensing revenue is largely generated from the first series and second/third series run of licensed drama series to the TV channels and online media platforms. According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, during recent years, licensing revenue witnessed a rapid growth due to the improvement in the quality and diversification of the content of the drama series, which further encouraged the creation of content-centric scripts. Revenue generated from drama series may vary based on the broadcasting channels and the actual broadcasting time. Normally, drama series broadcast on satellite TV channels during prime time could generate higher revenue due to the higher popularity. Revenue per episode of drama series that are licensed to the satellite TV channels is generally higher than that licensed to terrestrial TV channels, primarily because the satellite TV channels can reach nationwide viewers and enable the advertising sponsors to gain more exposure. Besides, for the same drama series, revenue per episode generated from the first-run broadcast is usually higher than that from rerun broadcast.

According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, the costs incurred in connection with drama series cover the entire production process, which generally consists of three stages, namely, the planning stage, production stage and post-production stage. In the planning stage, the costs incurred mainly relate to the purchase of scripts or payment to script writers. In the production stage, the costs incurred primarily include the remuneration paid to actors and expenses associated with filming venues, props, costumes and equipment. According to the Opinions on the Production Costs Allocation of Drama Series《關於電視劇網絡劇製作成本配置比例的意見》 ( ), which was jointly issued by China Alliance of Radio, Film and Television (中國廣播電影電視社會

組職聯會), Drama Production Industry Association (中國電視劇製作產業協會) and China Net-casting Services Association (中國網絡視聽節目服務協會) in July 2017, the remuneration of casts in each drama series shall not exceed 40.0% of the total investment of the drama series. In addition, the remuneration of major actors shall not exceed 70.0% of the total remuneration allocated for casts, while the remuneration of other actors shall not less than 30.0% of the total cast remuneration. Costs incurred in the post-production stage mainly represent the payment for post-production and marketing services. In addition, the cost allocation varies depending on the genres of different drama series. For example, the expenses on venues, props, costumes and post-production for history/war-related drama series are generally higher than those for modern/contemporary-related drama series. With the promulgation of the relevant regulations on tax payment and remuneration of actors in the drama series industry and the increase of investments in high-quality drama series, the cost allocation of the drama series will be more rationalized in the future.

The costs of drama series have significantly increased over the past several years and are expected to continue to rise, particularly as the investment in the production process is expected to rise to pursue higher-quality drama series. Professional and experienced distribution companies or in-house distribution department of drama series companies will help to distribute licensed drama series to numerous broadcasting channels to maximize the commercial value. Third-party service providers with proven collaborating track record and abundant industry resources will also be engaged for marketing and advertising activities.

Market Size of Drama Series Market in China

TV SERIES MARKET IN CHINA

Market Size of TV Series Market in China

Revenue generated from TV series mainly consist of licensing revenue generated from the distribution of TV series to TV channels and online media platforms, and advertising revenue generated by TV channels and online media platforms. TV channels generally served as the major distribution and broadcasting platform for TV series in the past as a result of a large and stable audience base. A new policy promulgated by NRTA in 2015 required that the same TV series cannot be broadcast by more than two satellite TV channels during the prime time each night, and each TV channel can only broadcast not more than two episodes per night. Such policy intensified the competition among investment and production companies in the TV series market. As a result, both the number of TV series and the number of episodes approved to broadcast declined in the past five years, according to the Frost & Sullivan Report. Meanwhile, the online media platforms have rapidly accumulated large user base and become an indispensable broadcasting channel for TV series in recent years. The chart below illustrates TV series market size in the PRC in terms of revenues from licensing and advertising of TV series through TV channels and online media platforms from 2015 to 2024:

According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, the market size of TV series in terms of revenue generated from satellite TV channels increased from approximately RMB38.3 billion in 2015 to approximately RMB42.8 billion in 2019, representing a CAGR of approximately 2.8% from 2015 to 2019. It is expected to continue to grow and reach approximately RMB45.2 billion in 2024, representing a CAGR of approximately 1.1% between 2019 and 2024. In addition, the market size of TV series in terms of revenue generated from terrestrial TV channels increased from approximately RMB13.4 billion in 2015 to approximately RMB14.0 billion in 2019, representing a CAGR of approximately 1.3% from 2015 to 2019 and is expected to continue to grow and reach approximately RMB14.4 billion in 2024, representing a CAGR of approximately 0.5% between 2019 and 2024.

The licensing revenue of TV series per episode has also increased significantly in the past few years, which was attributable to the increased competition among TV channels in China and the development of TV series distribution to online media platforms. The implementation of “One TV Series, Two Satellite TV Channels” policy has limited the capability of TV stations to broadcast the TV series. As a result, the fierce competitions for the superior TV series resources directly drives up the licensing revenue of TV series per episode received from TV channels.

According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, the superior TV series resources primarily refer to the type of TV series that are sophisticatedly produced by experienced production teams and could gain high popularity among the audience. The rigorous script writing, powerful cast, professional filming and post-production teams and appropriate marketing strategies jointly serve as the critical underlying factors to facilitate the quality and profitability of the superior TV series. According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, the licensing revenue of TV series per episode received from TV channels increased from approximately RMB1.0 million in 2015 to approximately RMB1.8 million in 2019, representing a CAGR of approximately 16.3%, and is estimated to reach approximately RMB2.3 million by 2024, representing a CAGR of approximately 4.8% from 2019 to 2024.

The anticipated slow-down of the growth of licensing revenue per episode of TV series from 2020 to 2024 primarily reflects the positive feedback from the market regarding the restrictions on the remuneration of actors. Pursuant to the Opinions on the Production Costs Allocation of Drama Series jointly issued by China Alliance of Radio, Film and Television, China Television Drama Production Industry Association and China Net-casting Services Association in July 2017, the remuneration for casts shall not exceed 40.0% of the total costs in producing a drama series. According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, the implementation of this guidance effectively reduced the production costs of TV series and thereby released the financial pressure on TV channels or online media platforms to license the broadcasting rights of drama series. Meanwhile, in order to improve competitiveness, online media platforms gradually focus their attention on enhancing their capability of creating high-quality original drama series content and consequently, reduce their investments in licensing the broadcasting rights of TV series from other third-party copyright owners/licensors.

According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, China has the largest Internet and mobile Internet user base in the world. In 2019, the number of online video users in China reached approximately 646.6 million, accounting for 73.8% of the Internet users in China. The number of subscribers to online media platforms increased at a CAGR of approximately 38.4% from approximately 85.7 million in 2015 to approximately 314.8 million in 2019, which accounted for approximately 48.7% of the online video viewers in 2019.

In terms of the number of web series broadcast on online media platforms, the web series market experienced fluctuation during the past few years. The number of web series, including the licensed web series and original web series, surged from 205 in 2014 to 379 in 2015. However, due to the lack of content production experience and limited budget, the market recorded a decrease in the number of web series to 275 in 2019. Recently, the online media platforms have increased their investments and provided resources to encourage the creation of original web series and actively cooperated with professional web series production companies. In light of the recent market trend, the number of web series broadcast via online media platforms is estimated to reach 285 by 2024, according to the Frost & Sullivan Report.

According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, the number of TV series broadcast on online media platforms decreased from 264 in 2015 to 204 in 2019. This decrease was largely affected by the strict government policies regulating the web series industry. It is expected that under the current policies and in light of the strengthened review of the drama series production in the web series industry, the number of web series licensed to be broadcast via online media platforms in China is expected to decline in the next five years.

Market Drivers of Drama Series Market in China

According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, the drama series market in China is primarily driven by the following factors:

• Growth of consumers’ entertainment demand. China has entered into a new era as its economic growth model has begun to shift from investment-driven to consumption-driven. Meanwhile, the increasing disposable income and living standards in the past several decades have encouraged Chinese consumers to seek high-quality entertainment services and products, which brings great development opportunities for the drama series industry in China.

• Prevalence of Internet and mobile Internet. The unlimited geography coverage, inclusivity and promptness of the Internet bring new business opportunities for the drama series industry. Many online platforms broadcast a large number of TV series and invest in or produce web series to attract viewers and traffic. Given the interactivity and mobility of Internet, online media platforms have gradually overtaken TV channels’ leading status in broadcasting and become an alternative choice of the viewers. In light of the market trend, the drama series market in China is expected to accelerate its development.

• Innovation in the drama series market. Drama series producers and online media platforms have devoted their efforts on innovation to better fulfil audience’ rising expectations. Some production companies and online media platforms have established in-house research teams to adopt content creation and audience behavior analysis to enhance the quality of the drama series. In addition, technologies such as big data analytics have been widely utilized in the process of drama series content design, marketing and distribution. These efforts made by various market players have stimulated the further development of the market.

• Massive and targeted investment. The players in the PRC drama series market have generally adopted a “high concept” business model, which is to make a large amount of investments, particularly in production, distribution and marketing campaigns in light of the increasingly intensified competition in the industry. The “high concept” business model, to some extent, helps enhance the quality of drama series and increase the competition threshold, which helps online media platforms with strong capabilities to further enhance its business performance by increasing revenue based on their improved audience ratings and market share.

Future Trends of Drama Series Market in China

• Acceleration of the export of Chinese drama series: With the promotion of Chinese culture around the world and improved production capabilities of drama series, the overseas distribution channels of Chinese drama series particularly the overseas online platforms continue to expand in terms of the quantity and transaction value. Considering the promotion of drama series production technology and the establishment of localized Chinese TV channels abroad, the export of Chinese drama series is expected to accelerate in the next few years.

• Increasingly diversified content and business models of drama series: Online literatures, Internet games and comics are the major sources of drama series content. In addition, leveraging the extensive experience in content operation and audience analysis on the Internet, the market players are able to produce quality drama series to satisfy different preferences of viewers. To diversify the business models, traditional media has adopted new advertising modes, such as flexible advertisement placement, multi-screen interaction and data-based marketing solution to generate advertising income. Apart from the advertising income, with the intellectual property protection, online media companies tend to generate income from paid users.

• Further cooperation between TV channels and online media platforms: In the past, TV stations were the major distribution channels of drama series. With the increasing Internet penetration rate, especially on mobile terminal, online media platforms have become more competitive in respect to the content distribution in China. In addition, the broadcasting schedule of drama series on the Internet is almost synchronized with the TV channels. In the future, TV channels and online media platforms are likely to have strategic cooperation in sharing resources to improve efficiency and effectiveness on content distribution.

Entry Barriers of Drama Series Market in China

According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, the entry barriers of drama series market in China are relatively high and primarily consist of the following factors:

• Capital and resources barrier. Drama series business generally involves a great amount of working capital for overhead expenditures across the entire production, distribution and post-production process. High capital investment usually positively correlates with high quality and considerable profit income. The lack of sufficient budget and abundant resources are likely to pose challenges to the new market entrants.

• Industry expertise barrier. Industry expertise and experience, which mainly include the capability to effectively coordinate all parties and ability to keep abreast of the latest market trends and satisfy the audience’s ever-changing preferences are critical for drama series producers to distinguish themselves from their competitors. In addition, experienced production companies generally have well-recognized image, which is more likely for them to access talented script writers, directors and casts for the production of the drama series.

• Broadcasting channel barrier. Drama series are generally distributed through TV channels and online media platforms. Online media platforms have become a mainstream for distributing and broadcasting drama series. Therefore, it has become increasingly important to maintain stable business relationships with different distribution channels. However, it is acknowledged that communication and cooperation with major distribution channels is time-consuming and difficult for new entrants.

Meanwhile, the broadcasting channels tend to cooperate with proficient distributors to ensure the quality of distributed drama series, which can positively contribute to the audience rating and increase related advertising revenue, according to the Frost & Sullivan Report. Therefore, the lack of strong distribution capabilities and cooperation with broadcasting channels may pose challenges to new market entrants.

PRC LEGAL COMPLIANCE

Our PRC Legal Advisors have confirmed that all relevant approvals and permits (as applicable) in respect of the reorganization of our PRC companies as described above have been obtained and the procedures and steps involved are in compliance with relevant PRC laws and regulations.

PRC REGULATORY ISSUES RELATING TO THE CORPORATE REORGANIZATION

SAFE Registration

Pursuant to the Circular of the SAFE on Foreign Exchange Administration of Overseas Investment, Financing and Round-trip Investments Conducted by Domestic Residents through Special Purpose Vehicles (關於境內居民通過特殊目的公司境外融資及返程投資外匯管理有關問題 的通知) (the “SAFE Circular 37”), promulgated by SAFE and became effective on July 4, 2014, (a) a PRC resident must register with the local SAFE branch before he or she contributes assets or equity interests in an overseas special purpose vehicle (the “Overseas SPV”) that is directly established or indirectly controlled by the PRC resident for the purpose of conducting investment or financing, and (b) following the initial registration, the PRC resident is also required to register with the local SAFE branch for any major change, in respect of the Overseas SPV, including, among other things, a change of Overseas SPV’s PRC resident shareholder(s), the name of the Overseas SPV, terms of operation, or any increase or reduction of the Overseas SPV’s capital, share transfer or swap, and merger or division. Pursuant to SAFE Circular No. 37, failure to comply with these registration procedures may result in penalties.

– 133 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. HISTORY AND CORPORATE STRUCTURE

Pursuant to the Circular of the SAFE on Further Simplification and Improvement in Foreign Exchange Administration on Director Investment (關於進一步簡化和改進直接投資外匯 管理政策的通知) (the “SAFE Circular 13”), promulgated by SAFE and became effective on June 1, 2015, the power to accept SAFE registration was delegated from local SAFE to local banks where the assets or interest in the domestic entity was located.

As advised by our PRC Legal Advisors, each of the beneficial shareholders of the Offshore Shareholders, being a total of 43 individuals, have completed the registration under the SAFE Circular 13 and SAFE Circular 37 on August 29, 2019.

M&A Rules

On August 8, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies, including the MOFCOM, the State Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, the State Administration of Taxation, SAIC, CSRC and SAFE, jointly issued the Provisions on the Merger and Acquisition of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors (the “M&A Rules”), which became effective on September 8, 2006, and was amended on June 22, 2009. Pursuant to the M&A Rules, a foreign investor is required to obtain necessary approvals when (i) a foreign investor acquires equity in a domestic non-foreign invested enterprise thereby converting it into a foreign-invested enterprise, or subscribes for new equity in a domestic enterprise through an increase of registered capital thereby converting it into a foreign-invested enterprise; or (ii) a foreign investor establishes a foreign-invested enterprise which purchases and operates the assets of a domestic enterprise, or which purchases the assets of a domestic enterprise and use those assets to establish a foreign-invested enterprise (the “Regulated Activities”).

The M&A Rules, among other things, further purport to require that an offshore special vehicle, or a special purpose vehicle, formed for listing purposes and controlled directly or indirectly by PRC companies or individuals, shall obtain the approval of the CSRC prior to the listing and trading of such special purpose vehicle’s securities on an oversea stock exchange, especially in the event that the special purpose vehicle acquires shares of or equity interests in the PRC companies in exchange for the shares of offshore companies.

Given that (i) LiTian WFOE was established as a wholly foreign-owned enterprise by means of direct investment rather than by merger or acquisition by our Company under the M&A Rules, and (ii) no Regulated Activities were involved in the Corporate Reorganization under the M&A Rules, and (iii) no provision in the M&A Rules clearly classified contractual arrangements as a type of transaction subject to the M&A Rules, as advised by our PRC Legal Advisors, the establishment of LiTian WFOE and the Corporate Reorganization are not subject to the M&A Rules, and the [REDACTED] of our Company does not require approvals from CSRC and MOFCOM under the M&A Rules.

– 134 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS

BACKGROUND OF THE CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS

Our Group is primarily engaged in the business of licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced and outright-purchased drama series. In addition, we are also engaged in other businesses which include (i) acting as a distribution agent of the broadcasting rights of TV series; (ii) selling drama series scripts; and (iii) investing in drama series in which we act as a non-executive producer (collectively as “Other Businesses”). We conduct our businesses through our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, which hold the requisite permit and approval required for our business, including the TV Series Distribution License and the Radio and Television Program Production and Operation Permit.

Foreign investment activities in the PRC are mainly governed by the Foreign Investment Catalog and the Negative List, which have been promulgated and amended from time to time jointly by the MOFCOM and the NDRC. The Foreign Investment Catalog demonstrates the Catalog of Encouraged Foreign Investment Industries and the Negative List for the foreign investment.

Under the applicable PRC laws and regulations, foreign investors are prohibited from holding equity interest in any enterprise conducting the production and operation of drama series. As advised by our PRC Legal Advisors, except for Other Businesses, our primary business of licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced and outright-purchased drama series falls within the Negative List. For the three years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, the revenue attributable to our business of licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced and outright-purchased drama series represented approximately 94.8%, 99.2% and 94.1% of our total revenue. As a result, we are not able to acquire and hold the equity interest in our Consolidated Affiliated Entities under the applicable PRC laws and regulations.

Our PRC Legal Advisors advised that the Other Businesses does not fall within the restricted or prohibited foreign investment business. However, having considered the following factors, the Contractual Arrangements have covered our Other Businesses in respect of the aforementioned TV series and film:

(1). for the three years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, the revenue attributable to the Other Businesses, which was not material, amounted to RMB19.7 million, RMB3.1 million and RMB23.4 million, representing approximately 5.2%, 0.8% and 5.9% of our total revenue, respectively. Our Company has entered into 13 contracts under the Other Businesses during Track Record Period, among which, two co‐financing agreements for the drama series and a distribution agent agreement are expected to be completed by 2020 . The amount of revenue to be generated from the two outstanding co-financing agreements is expected to be approximately RMB34.08 million in 2020 and we do not expect to make any further contribution to such co-financing agreements. The revenue for the outstanding distribution agent agreement has been recognized in 2019 and the receivables is expected to be fully settled in 2020;

– 135 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS

(2). when the agreements in relation to Other Businesses were entered into, the LiTian WFOE entity had not yet been established. Our Company has approached the other contractual parties of the three agreements that have not been fully performed, but such other contractual parties refused to enter into new agreements or supplemental agreements to novate the obligations of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities under the relevant investment agreements to LiTian WFOE; and

(3). we undertake that any new business that does not fall within the restricted or prohibited industry pursuant to the Foreign Investment Catalog and the Negative List will be conducted by LiTian WFOE or its subsidiaries and our Consolidated Affiliated Entities undertake that they will not conduct any such new business.

After considering that (i) the Contractual Arrangements enable our Group to conduct business in industries that are subject to foreign investment restrictions in the PRC; and (ii) the above reasons for our Other Businesses under the Contractual Arrangements, our Directors are of the view that the Contractual Arrangements are narrowly tailored for the purpose of foreign ownership restrictions requirement.

With the assistance of our PRC Legal Advisors, on October 12, 2019, we consulted the Radio and Television Administration of Zhejiang Province, being the competent authority as advised by our PRC Legal Advisors, and we were advised that (i) the Contractual Arrangements do not violate any applicable laws, regulations or provisions relating to radio and television program production and operating, and would not subject our Group to any administrative penalty; and (ii) the execution of the Contractual Arrangements does not require approval from or filing at the Radio and Television Administration of Zhejiang Province.

As of the date of this document, we have not encountered any interference or encumbrance from any governing bodies in our plan to adopt the Contractual Arrangements and the consolidated financial results of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities are consolidated to those of our Group. Our PRC Legal Advisors have opined that each of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities has been legally established and except for those disclosed under “— Legality of the Contractual Arrangements — PRC Legal Opinions” under this section and the section headed “Risk Factors — Risks relating to our Contractual Arrangements” of this document, the Contractual Arrangements in relation to the operation of our business are valid, legal and binding and do not contravene PRC laws and regulations.

The payment of the service fees pursuant to the Contractual Arrangements entered between LiTian TV & Film and LiTian WFOE would result in LiTian WFOE incurring additional income tax and VAT while the income tax and VAT to be paid by LiTian TV & Film will decrease by a corresponding amount to offset such increase. Therefore, the adoption of the Contractual Arrangements would not have any financial impact on the Group as if the Contractual Arrangements were adopted throughout the Track Record Period.

Circumstances in which We Will Unwind the Contractual Arrangements

Under the Foreign Investment Catalog and the Negative List, foreign investment in radio and television program production and operating business in the PRC is subject to foreign investment prohibition. If the PRC regulatory environment changes and the foreign investment prohibition on radio and television program production and operating business is removed (and assuming there are no other changes in the relevant PRC laws and regulations), LiTian WFOE will exercise the call option in full to hold all of the interest in the Consolidated Affiliated Entities and unwind the contractual arrangements accordingly. See “Termination of the Contractual Arrangements” in this section of this document for further details.

OPERATION OF THE CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS

In order to comply with the PRC laws and regulations as set out above while availing ourselves of international capital markets and maintaining effective control over all of our operations, on October 14, 2019, our wholly-owned subsidiary, LiTian WFOE, entered into various agreements that constitute the Contractual Arrangements with, among others, LiTian TV & Film, under which all economic benefits arising from the business of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities are transferred to LiTian WFOE to the extent permitted under the PRC laws and regulations by means of service fees payable by our Consolidated Affiliated Entities to LiTian WFOE. The Registered Shareholders are parties to certain agreements which constitute the Contractual Arrangements to ensure that the relevant interests of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities are actually controlled by LiTian WFOE.

The following simplified diagram illustrates the flow of economic benefits from our Consolidated Affiliated Entities to our Group stipulated under the Contractual Arrangements:

Pursuant to the equity pledge agreement (the “Equity Pledge Agreement”) dated October 14, 2019, entered into among LiTian WFOE, the Registered Shareholders and LiTian TV & Film, the Registered Shareholders agreed to unconditionally and irrevocably pledge all their respective equity interests in LiTian TV & Film, including any interest or dividend paid arising therefrom, to LiTian WFOE as a security interest to guarantee the performance of contractual obligations and other payment obligations under the Equity Pledge Agreement, including but not limited to liquidated damages, compensations and relevant expense (the “Secured Indebtedness”).

Under the Equity Pledge Agreement, the Registered Shareholders represent and warrant to LiTian WFOE that appropriate arrangements have been made to protect LiTian WFOE’s interests in the event of death, bankruptcy, divorce or other circumstances relating to the Registered Shareholders which may affect the exercise of its/his/her direct or indirect equity interest in LiTian TV & Film.

If LiTian TV & Film declares any dividend during the term of the pledge, LiTian WFOE is entitled to receive all such dividends, bonus issue or other income arising from the pledged equity interests, if any. If any of the Registered Shareholders or LiTian TV & Film breaches or fails to fulfill the obligations under the agreements underlying the Contractual Arrangements (other than the Spouse Undertaking), LiTian WFOE, as the pledgee, has the priority to be indemnified from the proceeds from the disposal of pledged equity interests. In addition, pursuant to the Equity Pledge Agreement, each of the Registered Shareholders and LiTian TV & Film has undertaken to LiTian WFOE, among other things, not to increase or reduce the registered capital of LiTian TV & Film, transfer the interest in his/her/its equity interests in LiTian TV & Film or create or allow any pledge thereon that may affect the rights and interest of LiTian WFOE without its prior written consent.

The equity pledge shall remain valid until all the contractual obligations of LiTian TV & Film and the Registered Shareholders are satisfied and all Secured Indebtedness are settled in full under the Contractual Arrangements, or the nullification or termination of the Contractual Arrangements, whichever is later.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default (as defined in the Equity Pledge Agreement), unless such default is cured within ten business days following the Registered Shareholders or LiTian TV & Film’s receipt of the written notice which requests for the cure of such default, LiTian WFOE shall have the right to exercise all such rights as a secured party under the Equity Pledge Agreement and in compliance with applicable PRC law, including but not limited to (i) require the Registered Shareholders and/or LiTian TV & Firm to settle all outstanding debts and other payables in full under the Contractual Arrangements immediately; (ii) being paid in priority with the equity interests based on the monetary valuation that such equity interest would convert into or from the proceeds from auction or sale of such equity interest; or (iii) dispose in any manner the pledged equity upon written notice to the Registered Shareholders under any applicable PRC law.

The equity pledge is required to be registered under the relevant laws and regulations. The equity pledge registration of LiTian TV & Film with the Haining Administration for Market Regulation was completed on February 13, 2020.

(4) Shareholders’ Voting Rights Entrustment Agreement

Pursuant to the shareholders’ voting rights entrustment agreement (the “Shareholders’ Voting Rights Entrustment Agreement”) dated October 14, 2019, entered into among LiTian WFOE, the Registered Shareholders and LiTian TV & Film, each of the Registered Shareholders irrevocably, unconditionally and exclusively appointed the persons designated by LiTian WFOE as its attorneys-in-fact to exercise on his/her/its behalf, any and all shareholder’s right that he/she/it has in respect of its equity interests in LiTian TV & Film, including without limitation:

The Shareholders’ Voting Rights Entrustment Agreement has an indefinite term and will only be terminated when (i) all the equity interest or assets have been legally and effectively transferred to LiTian WFOE or its appointed representative in accordance with the Exclusive Option Agreement; (ii) LiTian WFOE terminates this Shareholders’ Voting Rights Entrustment Agreement in accordance with the provisions herein; or (iii) this agreement is terminated pursuant to the operation of laws of the PRC. In addition, LiTian WFOE shall have the right to terminate this agreement by giving written notice to the Registered Shareholders and LiTian TV & Film.

(5) Shareholders’ Powers of Attorney

Pursuant to the Shareholders’ Powers of Attorney dated October 14, 2019 and executed by the Registered Shareholder in favor of LiTian WFOE, each of the Registered Shareholder irrevocably authorized and appointed LiTian WFOE, as his/her/its agent to act on his/her/its behalf to exercise or delegate the exercise of all his/her/its rights as shareholders of LiTian TV & Film.

LiTian WFOE shall have the right to further delegate its power to other designated person(s), including but not limited to (i) the director(s) of LiTian WFOE and/or its holding company, and (ii) any person as successor of or liquidator to replace such director(s).

(6) Spouse Undertakings

Pursuant to the Spouse Undertakings, the spouse of each of the individual Registered Shareholders has irrevocably undertaken and acknowledged that:

(a) he/she has full knowledge of the entering into of the Contractual Arrangements by LiTian WFOE, the Registered Shareholders and LiTian TV & Film;

(b) the Registered Shareholder is the only beneficial owner of the equity interests in LiTian TV & Film; the rights and obligations under the Contractual Arrangements do not apply to the spouse; the performance, amendment or termination of the Contractual Arrangements by the Registered Shareholder does not require consent from the spouse; and at any time, the spouse shall not take any actions against the disposal of any equity interest in LiTian TV & Film and shall not make any claim relating to such equity interest;

(c) he/she has consented that the equity interest of LiTian TV & Film held and to be held by the Registered Shareholder (together with any other interests therein) do not fall within the scope of communal properties in case of divorce;

(d) he/she will execute all necessary documents and perform all necessary procedures from time to time to ensure the performance of the Contractual Arrangements; and

(e) any undertaking, confirmation, consent and authorization under the Spouse Undertakings shall not be revoked, prejudiced, invalidated or otherwise adversely affected by death, loss of or restriction on capacity of the spouse, divorce or other similar events.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Each of the Contractual Arrangements provides that:

(a) any dispute arising out of or in connection with the Contractual Arrangements shall be resolved through negotiation;

(b) if the parties are unable to settle the dispute within 30 days, any party shall have the right to refer the dispute to and have the dispute finally resolved by arbitration administered by the South China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission (Shenzhen Court of International Arbitration) in Hangzhou under the prevailing effective arbitration rules thereof and the language to be used during the arbitration shall be Chinese. The results of the arbitration shall be final and binding on all relevant parties;

(c) the arbitration commission shall have the right to award remedies over the assets of LiTian TV & Film, injunctive relief (for the conduct of business or to compel the transfer of assets); and

– 145 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS

(d) upon request by any party, the courts of competent jurisdictions shall have the power to grant interim remedies in support of the arbitration pending formation of the arbitral tribunal or in appropriate cases. The courts of PRC, Hong Kong, the Cayman Islands (being the place of incorporation of our Company) and the places where the principal assets of LiTian WFOE and LiTian TV & Film are located, shall be considered as having jurisdiction for the above purposes.

In connection with the dispute resolution mechanisms as set out in the Contractual Arrangements and the practical consequences, we are advised by our PRC Legal Advisors that:

(a) under the PRC laws, an arbitral body does not have the power to grant any injunctive relief or provisional or final liquidation order for the purpose of protecting assets of or equity interest in LiTian TV & Film. As such, these remedies may not be available to our Group under the PRC laws;

(b) further, under the PRC laws, courts or judicial authorities in the PRC generally would not award injunctive relief over the equity interest and/or assets of LiTian TV & Film, as interim remedies before there is any final outcome of arbitration;

(c) however, the PRC laws do not disallow the arbitral body to give award of transfer of assets of or an equity interest in LiTian TV & Film at the request of arbitration applicant. In the event of non-compliance with such award, enforcement measures may be sought from the court. However, the court may or may not support such award of the arbitral body when deciding whether to take enforcement measures;

(d) in addition, interim remedies or enforcement orders granted by courts of other jurisdictions such as that of Hong Kong may not be recognizable or enforceable in the PRC; therefore, in the event we are unable to enforce the Contractual Arrangements, we may not be able to exert effective control over each of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, and our ability to conduct our business may be negatively affected; and

(e) even if the above-mentioned provisions may not be enforceable under the PRC laws, the remaining provisions of the dispute resolution clauses are legal, valid and binding on the parties to the agreement under the Contractual Arrangements.

As a result of the above, in the event that our Consolidated Affiliated Entities or the Registered Shareholders breach any of the Contractual Arrangements, we may not be able to obtain sufficient remedies in a timely manner, and our ability to exert effective control over our Consolidated Affiliated Entities and conduct our business could be materially and adversely affected. See the section headed “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to our Contractual Arrangements” in this document for details.

PROTECTION IN THE EVENT OF DEATH, BANKRUPTCY OR DIVORCE OF THE REGISTERED SHAREHOLDERS OR DISSOLUTION OR LIQUIDATION OF LITIAN TV & FILM

Each of Mr. Yuan, Ms. Tian, Mr. Huang Weishu (黃衛書), Mr. Li Danjun (勵丹駿), Mr. Gong Yueliang (龔越亮), Mr. Zhu Huanghang (朱黃杭), Ms. Si Houfang (斯厚芳) and Ms. Fu Jieyun (傅 潔雲) has irrevocably undertaken to LiTian WFOE that, (i) in the event of death, loss of or restriction on capacity or other circumstances which may affect the exercise of his/her direct or indirect equity interest in LiTian TV & Film, he/she shall transfer his/her direct or indirect equity interest in LiTian TV & Film to LiTian WFOE or its designated entity, as permitted by the applicable PRC laws and regulations at relevant time; and (ii) in the event of divorce, he/she shall not take any actions that are in conflict with purpose and intention of the Contractual Arrangements and shall sign all necessary documents and make all necessary arrangements to ensure the properly enforcement of the Contractual Arrangements from time to time.

In the event of the dissolution or liquidation of LiTian TV & Film, the Registered Shareholders undertake that, among others, LiTian WFOE and/or its designee shall have the right to exercise all shareholders’ rights on behalf of the Registered Shareholders, as the case may be, and shall instruct LiTian TV & Film to transfer assets received under PRC laws directly to LiTian WFOE and/or our designee. See the section headed “Contractual Arrangements — Operation of the Contractual Arrangements — Summary of the Material Terms of the Contractual Arrangements — (4) Shareholders’ Voting Rights Entrustment Agreement” in this document for details.

LOSS SHARING

In the event that our Consolidated Affiliated Entities incur any loss or encounter any operational crisis, LiTian WFOE may, but is not obliged to, provide financial support to our Consolidated Affiliated Entities. None of the agreements constituting the Contractual Arrangements provide that our Company or its wholly-owned PRC subsidiary, LiTian WFOE, is obligated to share the losses of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities or provide financial support to our Consolidated Affiliated Entities. Further, our Consolidated Affiliated Entities shall be solely liable for its own debts and losses with assets and properties owned by it.

Under the PRC laws and regulations, our Company or LiTian WFOE, is not expressly required to share the losses of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities or provide financial support to our Consolidated Affiliated Entities. Despite the foregoing, given that our Consolidated Affiliated Entities’ financial condition and results of operations are consolidated into our Group’s financial condition and results of operations under the applicable accounting principles, our Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected if our Consolidated Affiliated Entities suffer losses. However, due to the restrictive provisions contained in the Contractual Arrangements as set out in the paragraphs immediately above, the potential adverse effect on LiTian WFOE and our Company in the event of any loss suffered from our Consolidated Affiliated Entities can be limited to a certain extent.

TERMINATION OF THE CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS

Each of the Contractual Arrangements provides that: (a) each of the Contractual Arrangements shall be terminated upon the completion of the purchase of all the equity interest that the Registered Shareholders (directly and indirectly) hold in LiTian TV & Film by LiTian WFOE or another party designated by LiTian WFOE pursuant to the terms of the Exclusive Call Option Agreements, save for the Equity Pledge Agreement which shall continue to be in force until all obligations thereunder have been performed or all Secured Indebtedness has been repaid in full; (b) LiTian WFOE shall have the right to terminate the Contractual Arrangements by serving 30-day prior notice in writing; and (c) each of LiTian TV & Film and the Registered Shareholders shall not be entitled to unilaterally terminate the Contractual Arrangements in any situation other than prescribed by the PRC laws.

In the event that the PRC laws and regulations allow LiTian WFOE or us to directly hold all or part of the interest of LiTian TV & Film and/or in our Consolidated Affiliated Entities and/or all as part of the equity interest in LiTian TV & Film and operate drama series production and distribution business in the PRC, LiTian WFOE shall exercise the Equity Call Option as soon as practicable and LiTian WFOE or its designated party shall purchase such amount of equity interest to the extent permissible under the PRC laws and regulations, and upon exercise in full of the Equity Call Option and the acquisition of all the equity interest that the Registered Shareholders (directly and indirectly) hold in LiTian TV & Film by LiTian WFOE or another party designated by LiTian WFOE pursuant to the terms of the Exclusive Call Option Agreements, each of the Contractual Arrangements shall be automatically terminated.

INSURANCE

Our Company does not maintain any insurance policy to cover the risks relating to the Contractual Arrangements.

ARRANGEMENT TO ADDRESS POTENTIAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST

We have in place arrangements to address the potential conflicts of interest between the Registered Shareholders and our Company. Pursuant to the Exclusive Call Option Agreement, LiTian WFOE has the right to require the Registered Shareholders to transfer any or all of their equity interests in LiTian TV & Film to LiTian WFOE or its designated third party. Under the Shareholders’ Voting Rights Entrustment Agreement, each of the Registered Shareholders agreed to appoint the persons designated by LiTian WFOE (excluding non-independent persons or persons who may give rise to conflicts of interests) as their attorney-in-fact to exercise its rights in respect of its equity interests in LiTian TV & Film. Furthermore, under the undertakings given by each of the spouses of the respective individual Registered Shareholders, respectively, each of them unconditionally and irrevocably (i) acknowledged the entry into the Contractual Arrangements by his/her spouses; (ii) confirmed that any equity interests of his/her spouse in LiTian TV & Film do not fall within the scope of the community properties; and (iii) undertook that he or she shall not make any claim on any of the equity interest or assets of LiTian TV & Film. Based on the foregoing, our Directors are of the view that the measures we have adopted are sufficient to mitigate the risks associated with potential conflicts of interest between our Group and the Registered Shareholders and that these measures are sufficient to protect our Group’s interest in our Consolidated Affiliated Entities.

LEGALITY OF THE CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS

PRC Legal Opinions

Based on the above, our PRC Legal Advisors are of the opinion that the Contractual Arrangements are narrowly tailored to minimize the potential conflict with relevant PRC laws and regulations and that:

(a) each of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities was duly incorporated and is validly existing and their respective establishment is valid, effective and complies with the relevant PRC laws and regulations, each of the Registered Shareholders is a natural person with full civil and legal capacity or a legally established and validly subsisting entity. Each of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities has also obtained all material approvals and finished all registration as required by PRC laws and regulations and has the capacity to carry out business operations in accordance with its licenses and approvals;

(b) the Contractual Arrangements as a whole and each of the agreements comprising the Contractual Arrangements are legal, valid and binding on the parties thereto, enforceable under PRC laws and regulations, except that the Contractual Arrangements provide that the arbitral body may award remedies over the shares and/or assets of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, injunctive relief and/or winding up of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, and that courts of competent jurisdictions are empowered to grant interim remedies in support of the arbitration pending the formation of an arbitral tribunal, while under PRC laws, an arbitral body has no power to grant injunctive relief and may not directly issue a provisional or final liquidation order for the purpose of protecting the assets of or equity interest in our Consolidated Affiliated Entities in case of disputes. In addition, interim remedies or enforcement orders granted by overseas courts such as the courts of Hong Kong may not be recognizable or enforceable in China, and do not, individually or collectively, constitute a breach of any PRC laws and regulations and will not be deemed invalid or ineffective under those laws and regulations; in particular, the Contractual Arrangements do not violate the provisions of the PRC Contract Law including “concealing illegal intentions with a lawful form,” the General Principles of the PRC Civil Law and other applicable PRC laws and regulations;

(c) each of the Contractual Arrangements is not in violation of provisions of the articles of association of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities and LiTian WFOE;

(d) each of the Contractual Arrangements is enforceable under PRC laws and regulations, the entering into and the performance of each of the Contractual Arrangements do not require any approvals or authorizations from the PRC governmental authorities, except that: (i) the pledge of any equity interest in LiTian TV & Film in favor of LiTian WFOE is subject to registration requirements with relevant Administration of Industry and Commerce; and (ii) the transfer of equity interest in LiTian TV & Film contemplated under the Contractual Arrangements is subject to applicable approval and/or registration requirements under the then applicable PRC laws;

– 149 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS

(e) neither LiTian WFOE nor our Company is obligated to share the losses of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities or provide financial support to our Consolidated Affiliated Entities. Each of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities is solely liable for its own debts and losses with assets and properties owned by it; and

(f) the consummation of the contemplated [REDACTED] of our Shares on the Stock Exchange does not violate the M&A Rules.

For details in relation to the risks involved in the Contractual Arrangements, see “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Our Contractual Arrangements” in this document.

Directors’ Views on the Contractual Arrangements

We believe that the Contractual Arrangements are narrowly tailored because the Contractual Arrangements are only used to enable our Group to consolidate the financial results of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities which engage or will engage in the operation of drama series production and distribution business, where the PRC laws and regulations currently prohibit foreign investment.

As of the date of this document, we have not encountered any interference or encumbrance from any governing bodies in our plan to adopt the Contractual Arrangements so that the financial results of the operation of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities can be consolidated to those of our Group, and based on the advice of our PRC Legal Advisors, the Directors are of the view that the Contractual Arrangements are enforceable under the PRC laws and regulations, except for relevant arbitration provisions, as disclosed in the paragraph headed “Dispute Resolution” in this section.

The transactions contemplated under the Contractual Arrangements constitute continuing connected transactions of our Company under the Listing Rules upon the [REDACTED] and it is impracticable and unduly burdensome for them to be subject to the relevant requirements under the Listing Rules as our Directors are of the view that the transactions contemplated under the Contractual Arrangements are fundamental to our Group’s legal structure and business operations, that such transactions have been and shall be entered into in the ordinary and usual course of business of our Group, are on normal commercial terms and are fair and reasonable and in the interests of our Company and our Shareholders as a whole. Please also refer to “Continuing Connected Transactions” in this document.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL RESULTS OF OUR CONSOLIDATED AFFILIATED ENTITIES

According to IFRS 10 — Consolidated Financial Statements, a subsidiary is an entity that is controlled by another entity (known as the parent). An investor controls an investee when it is exposed, or has rights to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Although our Company does not directly or indirectly own our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, the Contractual Arrangements as mentioned above enable our Company to exercise control over our Consolidated Affiliated Entities. Accordingly, the Consolidated Affiliated Entities are treated as subsidiaries of our Group and consolidated by our Group in the consolidated financial statements of our Group.

DEVELOPMENT IN THE PRC LEGISLATION ON FOREIGN INVESTMENT

Background of the Foreign Investment Law

On January 1, 2020, the Foreign Investment Law passed by the second session of the thirteenth National People’s Congress became effect. The Foreign Investment Law has replaced the Law of the People’s Republic of China on Chinese-Foreign Equity Joint Ventures《中華人民 ( 共和國中外合資經營企業法》), the Law of the People’s Republic of China on Chinese-Foreign Contractual Joint Ventures《中華人民共和國中外合作經營企業法》 ( ) and the Law of the People’s Republic of China on Wholly Foreign-Owned Enterprises《中華人民共和國外資企業法》 ( )to become the legal foundation for foreign investment in the PRC. The Implementation Regulations for the Foreign Investment Law of the People’s Republic of China《中華人民共和國 ( 外商投資法實施條例》) (the “Implementation Regulations for the Foreign Investment Law”) was passed by the 74th Executive Session of the State Council on December 12, 2019 and was implemented with effect from January 1, 2020.

Impact and Potential Consequences of the Foreign Investment Law on our Contractual Arrangements

Conducting operations through contractual arrangements has been adopted by many PRC-based companies, including us, to obtain and maintain necessary licenses and permits in the industries that are currently subject to foreign investment restrictions or prohibitions in China. The Foreign Investment Law does not explicitly stipulate the contractual arrangements as a form of foreign investment. As advised by our PRC Legal Advisors, since contractual arrangements are not specified as foreign investment under the Foreign Investment Law or the Implementation Regulations for the Foreign Investment Law, and if the future laws, regulations and rules do not incorporate contractual arrangements as a form of foreign investment, the Contractual Arrangements as a whole and each of the agreements comprising the Contractual Arrangements will not be affected and will continue to be legal, valid and binding on the parties.

For details of risks relating to the Foreign Investment Law, please see “Risk Factors — Risks relating to our Contractual Arrangements — Substantial uncertainties exist with respect to the interpretation and implementation of the Foreign Investment Law and how it may impact the viability of our current corporate structure, corporate governance and business operations” in this document.

However, there are possibilities that future laws, administrative regulations and provisions prescribed by the State Council may regard the Contractual Arrangements as a form of foreign investment, at which time it will be uncertain whether the Contractual Arrangements will be deemed to be in violation of the then effective foreign investment access requirements and how the above-mentioned Contractual Arrangements will be handled. In addition, the specific review standards by the relevant authorities determining the Contractual Arrangements as a form of the foreign investment is unpredictable, and the interpretation or implementation ultimately adopted by the relevant authorities of the Foreign Investment Law or the Implementation Regulations for the Foreign Investment Law may be inconsistent with our PRC Legal Advisers’ understanding.

The Potential Impact to Our Company in the Worst Scenario pursuant to the Foreign Investment Law that the Contractual Arrangements Are Treated as a Foreign Investment

If the radio and television program production and operation is no longer in the Negative List and our Group can legally operate the radio and television program production and operating business under PRC Laws, LiTian WFOE will exercise the Equity Call Option under the Exclusive Call Option Agreement to acquire the equity interest in LiTian TV & Film and unwind the Contractual Arrangements subject to re-approval by the relevant authorities.

If the radio and television program production and operation is in the Negative List, the Contractual Arrangements may be viewed as restricted foreign investment. Although contractual arrangements are not specified as foreign investment under the Foreign Investment Law, the Contractual Arrangements may be regarded as invalid and illegal if the future laws, administrative regulations or provisions prescribed by the State Council define contractual arrangements as a form of foreign investment and the operation of radio and television program production is still in the Negative List. As a result, our Group would not be able to operate our Consolidated Affiliated Entities through the Contractual Arrangements and we would lose our rights to receive the economic benefits of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities. Accordingly, the financial results of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities would no longer be consolidated into our Group’s financial results and we would have to derecognize their assets and liabilities according to the relevant accounting standards. An investment loss would be recognized as a result of such derecognition.

Nevertheless, considering that a number of existing conglomerates are operating under contractual arrangements and some of which have obtained [REDACTED] status abroad and contractual arrangements are not specified as foreign investment under the Foreign Investment Law, our Directors are of the view that it is unlikely that the relevant regulations will take retrospective effect to require the relevant enterprises to remove the contractual arrangements.

COMPLIANCE WITH THE CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS

Our Group has adopted the following measures to ensure the effective operation of our Group with the implementation of the Contractual Arrangements and our compliance with the Contractual Arrangements:

(a) major issues arising from the implementation and compliance with the Contractual Arrangements or any regulatory enquiries from government authorities will be submitted to our Board, if necessary, for review and discussion on an occurrence basis;

(b) our Board will review the overall performance of and compliance with the Contractual Arrangements at least once a year;

(c) our Company will disclose the overall performance and compliance with the Contractual Arrangements in its annual reports to update the Shareholders and potential investors; and

(d) our Company will engage external legal advisors or other professional advisors, if necessary, to assist the Board to review the implementation of the Contractual Arrangements, review the legal compliance of LiTian WFOE and our Consolidated Affiliated Entities to deal with specific issues or matters arising from the Contractual Arrangements.

OVERVIEW

We are a leading drama series distribution company in the PRC. Our Group ranked second among all drama series distribution groups in the PRC in terms of the number of TV series first broadcast (首發劇) on satellite TV channels the PRC in 2018, according to the Frost & Sullivan Report. Our Group was established in 2013, and is primarily engaged in the business of licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced and outright-purchased drama series. In addition, we are engaged in other businesses, which include (i) selling drama series scripts; (ii) acting as a distribution agent of the broadcasting rights of TV series; and (iii) investing in drama series in which we act as a non-executive producer. During the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date, we have invested and produced seven TV series and one web series covering a wide range of genres in which we acted as the executive producer. We also distributed 32, 43 and 45 drama series (including both self-produced drama series and drama series we purchased outright from third-party copyright owners/licensors) for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. The drama series we distributed were generally broadcast on well-known satellite TV channels and leading online media platforms in the PRC during the Track Record Period.

Our business of licensing the broadcasting rights of drama series mainly involves the licensing of the broadcasting rights of drama series produced by us as the executive producer and drama series that we have outright-purchased the copyrights or broadcasting rights, as the case may be, from third-party copyright owners/licensors. With respect to our business of selling drama series script copyrights, we purchase certain scripts of potential drama series to be made from third-party copyright owners, and in turn, sell such script copyrights to certain drama series production companies from time to time. For our business of acting as a distribution agent of the broadcasting rights of TV series, we promote the relevant TV series to TV channels and negotiate the terms and conditions in connection with the licensing of the relevant broadcasting rights with them on behalf of the TV series copyright owners/licensors. In addition, with respect to our business of investing in drama series that we act as a non-executive producer, we enter into co-financing arrangements with the executive producers of the drama series and make investments therein. We generally take a passive role with limited involvement in the production and distribution of the relevant drama series. For details of our business, please refer to the section headed “— Our Business and Revenue Model” in this document.

In recognition of our achievements, we have garnered acclaim and received numerous awards and recognition during the Track Record Period.

In 2018, we received the 2017 First Prize of Excellent Enterprise by Comprehensive Assessment (2017年度綜合考核優秀企業一等獎)from Haining Base Management Committee (海寧基地管理委員會).

Since the establishment of LiTian TV & Film in 2013, we have been positioning ourselves as a drama series producer and distributor that strives to provide popular drama series to our customers. During the Track Record Period, we have been well-recognized in the industry. For example:

(i) in 2017, one of the TV series we produced, “Double Guns” (雙槍), received the Excellent Television Series Award (優秀電視劇獎) from the Shanghai East Film Channel (上海東方電影頻道);

(ii) in 2018, “The Brothers” (義海), another one of the TV series we produced, received the Television Series Rating Contribution Award (電視劇收視貢獻獎)from Guangdong Radio and Television (廣東廣播電視台), and Sichuan Province Network Rating Contribution Award (四川省網收視貢獻獎) from Sichuan Radio and Television (四川廣播電視台); and

(iii) in 2019, we received the 2018 Best Cooperative Drama Series Distribution Company (2018年度最佳合作影視發行公司獎) from Guangxi Satellite Television (廣西衛視)in 2019.

For further information of the awards we have received throughout the years, please see the paragraph headed “Awards, Recognition and Memberships in Industry Organizations” in this section.

Benefiting from the increase in the consumer demand for entertainment in the PRC, the market size of drama series in the PRC experienced substantial growth from approximately RMB78.8 billion in 2015 to approximately RMB126.5 billion in 2019, representing a CAGR of approximately 12.6% during the period, according to the Frost & Sullivan Report. During the Track Record Period, we have experienced revenue growth from approximately RMB378.7 million in 2017 to approximately RMB391.0 million in 2019. It is expected that the market size of drama series in the PRC will further increase to approximately RMB182.8 billion by 2024, representing a CAGR of approximately 7.6% from 2019 to 2024, according to the Frost & Sullivan Report.

Furthermore, according to the Frost & Sullivan Report, online media platforms have attracted a massive user base with substantial growth and monetization potential, which became an indispensable broadcasting platform for drama series. The market size of the web series market is estimated to grow and reach approximately RMB43.0 billion by 2024, representing a CAGR of approximately 13.4% from 2019 to 2024. To leverage on the business expansion of online media platforms, apart from the production and distribution of drama series, we have cooperated with a leading online media platform in the PRC to produce a web series called “Mr. Fox and Miss Rose” (酋長的男人) in 2019. We believe that the market recognition of our Group and our efforts to produce and distribute web series will enable us to capture the significant market opportunities in the PRC.

We have diversified and synergetic business operations to support our growth in the drama series industry in the PRC

We initially began to operate our business by primarily focusing on investing in and producing our own drama series and licensing the broadcasting rights thereof to our customers. Since the production of a drama series usually takes relatively long time to complete, we believe outright-purchasing drama series can shorten our revenue cycle and improve our operating cash flows. Therefore, during the Track Record Period, we have mainly relied on the licensing of the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series to maintain our market position and have generated stable revenue by utilizing our relationships with upstream third-party drama series copyright owners/licensors and our extensive downstream customer network in the PRC. Through this business, we are able to optimize our supplier and customer network and provide a stable supply of high-quality drama series to our customers. Furthermore, by acquiring the broadcasting rights of the drama series with diverse content from a large group of copyright owners/licensors, we are able to satisfy the varying demands from our customers. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, we have distributed a total of 32, 43 and 45 drama series, respectively (including self-produced drama series and outright-purchased drama series).

In order to further enhance our market recognition, we continuously invest and produce our own drama series and license the related broadcasting rights to major TV channels and online media platforms during the Track Record Period. We cooperate with various partners, including writers, production studios and directors in the production of our own drama series. Based on our proven track record and management expertise, we have insights into the evolving market trends of the PRC drama series industry, and are capable of identifying appropriate materials for drama series development and timely responding to the changes in viewers’ preferences. Such insights enable us to internally develop drama series that we anticipate will likely achieve commercial success. We have established a comprehensive and systematic project assessment system that allows us to identify quality story concepts and themes, and objectively determine whether to invest in a drama series. By producing our own drama series, we are able to exert more influence on the creativity, quality and content of the drama series and manage our overall cost more effectively to achieve higher profitability. During the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date, we invested and produced seven TV series and one web series in which we acted as the executive producer. We will continue to invest, produce and license self-produced drama series by leveraging on our expertise and knowledge of the industry value chain in order to further enhance our market recognition.

– 155 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS

We believe our diverse and synergetic business operations enable us to effectively leverage our resources, including our comprehensive customer network and enjoy the benefits of different cost structures to relieve the pressure of operating cash flows while maximizing the efficiency of our available capital resources.

We maintain strong and fruitful relationships with our business partners

We have established a broad and extensive customer network to capture a large number of drama series viewers in the PRC. Leveraging on our management’s experience and expertise in the PRC drama series industry, our customer network covers all major provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions in the PRC. During the Track Record Period, we had entered into broadcasting rights transfer agreements with over 90 provincial and municipal TV channels and online media platforms for the distribution of our self-produced and outright-purchased drama series. Our major customers during the Track Record Period comprised some of the largest satellite TV channels in the PRC and leading online media platforms. We maintained business relationships with some of them for over four years. During the Track Record Period, we have continuously improved the quality of our customers. For example, in 2017, only two of our top five customers were ranked in the top 10 leading satellite TV channels by audience rating for the respective years, according to the Frost & Sullivan Report. In 2018, three of our top five customers were ranked in the top 10 leading satellite TV channels by audience rating for the year. In addition, in 2019, we added another one of the 2018 top 10 leading Satellite TV channels in terms of audience rating as our major customer.

We have also entered into strategic cooperation arrangements with a few of our customers. We believe we are able to enhance customer loyalty and foster business relationships with a growing number of customers mainly due to our ability to efficiently source in-demand drama series from the copyright owners/licensors and produce drama series on our own that cater to the prevalent viewers’ preferences. We are committed to deliver high-quality drama series and provide proactive customer services by making frequent visits to our customers as part of our approach to achieving customer satisfaction.

In addition, we have developed and maintained strong relationships with numerous suppliers. Our suppliers primarily include copyrights owners/licensors of the drama series and other reputable film and television related service providers. Some of our major suppliers have worked with us for over three years. We believe that our suppliers are attracted to work with us because of our experience and expertise in production and distribution of drama series in the PRC. Our Directors are of the view that our strong relationship with suppliers allows us to source the drama series that cater to the preferences of our customers, ensure the overall quality of the drama series, and execute our production work on a timely basis.

We have visionary and experienced management team with in-depth industry knowledge

We believe that a substantial part of our success can be attributable to our experienced and proven senior management team. Most of our executive Directors and senior management possess extensive industry experience and in-depth knowledge.

During the Track Record Period, we distributed a number of market recognized and awarded drama series, such as “Bright Star” (星光燦爛), “The Brothers” (義海), “Guerrilla Heroes” (游擊英雄) and “Double Guns” (雙槍).

We are confident that the leadership of our senior management team will continue to enhance our market position and reputation, and bring business growth and profitability to our Group. We believe that our senior management team will continue to be our Group’s invaluable assets and steer us towards greater success in the future.

BUSINESS STRATEGIES

Our objective is to strengthen our leading position in the PRC drama series market and enhance our overall competitiveness. To achieve this objective, we plan to execute the following business strategies:

Continue to strengthen our drama series production and distribution capabilities

According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, the PRC drama series market will continue to experience steady growth in the next few years. We expect that the market size of the PRC drama series industry will grow at a CAGR of 7.6% from 2019 to 2024. To capture the opportunities created by such growth potential, we intend to continue to (i) expand our businesses of licensing the broadcasting rights of both self-produced drama series and outright-purchased drama series; and (ii) further solidify our relationships with third-party copyright owners/licensors, broaden our customer base and improve our distribution capability.

– 157 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS

Specifically, we intend to invest and produce additional drama series covering a wide range of genres, such as family/urban, romance and history, either as the sole investor or through a co-financing arrangement. To achieve this, we plan to strengthen our existing cooperation with third-party creative professionals, such as writers, novelists and publishers, and copyright owners of scripts and/or IPs by entering into strategic cooperation arrangements with them, pursuant to which we will be able to identify and obtain suitable scripts and/or IPs for drama series development early on in the process. We believe this arrangement will provide us with the timing advantage in bringing appropriate drama series to the intended audiences over our competitors. We also aim to expand our sourcing network by establishing business relationships with new third-party screenwriters, novelists, creative writers and publishers by participating in additional entertainment festivals, promotional meetings and other drama series industry activities. We believe a broader network of script copyright owners will enable us to more efficiently identify appropriate drama series for production. In particular, we intend to invest and produce an estimated 11 additional drama series in the next three years. We plan to fund our production of additional drama series through our cash generated from our operations, investments from third parties under the co-financing arrangements and [REDACTED]fromthe[REDACTED]. For further details of the intended use of the [REDACTED]ofthe[REDACTED] for the drama series we plan to self-produce, please see “Future Plans and [REDACTED]” in this document.

In addition, we will continue to expand our business of licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series. We plan to purchase more copyrights (or broadcasting rights) of drama series from third-party copyright owners/licensors. We intend to foster closer relationships with the downstream distribution channels, such as large, reputable satellite TV channels and popular online media platforms, which will allow the drama series we distribute to reach a larger audience. In particular, we plan to continue to participate in industry trade fairs, festivals and conventions on a regular basis, through which we will showcase our purchased drama series and self-produced drama series to existing and potential customers, expand our customer base, enhance the portfolio of our drama series offerings and raise our profile in the industry. In addition, we intend to enter into strategic cooperation agreements with certain of our customers, which will allow us to enjoy priority consideration from our cooperation partners to broadcast a predetermined number of the drama series from us. We believe this arrangement will enable us to secure revenue sources by ensuring that there will be stable demand for the drama series we purchase or produce. It will also allow us to receive payments from our cooperation partners in priority to our peers, which we believe will shorten our revenue cycle. In particular, we intend to purchase the copyrights (or broadcasting rights) of approximately 75 drama series from third-party copyright owners/licensors in the next three years in connection with a variety of genres, including history/war, modern/contemporary, urban/romance, family and mainstream. We expect to utilize cash generated from our operations and the [REDACTED]fromthe[REDACTED] to purchase the copyrights (or broadcasting rights) of the aforesaid drama series. For details of the intended use of the [REDACTED]ofthe[REDACTED] for this business, please refer to the section headed “Future Plans and [REDACTED]” in this document.

We believe that the strategic cooperation arrangements we plan to enter into with the upstream third-party drama series copyright owners/licensors and the downstream broadcasting platforms will foster our business integration and create further synergy for our business operations, which will enhance our operating efficiency and lower related costs.

– 158 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS

We historically distributed more outright-purchased drama series than self-produced drama series and therefore, our business of licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series was a more significant source of our revenue during the Track Record Period. Our revenue generated from the business of licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series represented a relatively small portion of our total revenue during the Track Record Period mainly because (i) there were limited number of scripts and/or IPs that the Company believed could meet the customers’ preferences or audience’s expectations and were suitable for the production of drama series; and (ii) the production and distribution of self-produced drama series generally require relatively longer time to complete and thus, have a longer revenue cycle, which may adversely impact our operating cash flows. On the other hand, the business of licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series can shorten our revenue cycle and improve our operating cash flows. However, beginning in late 2018 and early 2019, we had been in touch with additional third-party copyright owners/licensors to obtain more content information about the literary and artistic creations. In addition, we had recruited several screenwriters to create drama stories or adapt literary works, such as novels, stories and scripts of which we procured copyrights from other copyright owners/licensors to increase our reserves of suitable genres of drama series for production. This enabled us to expand our business of licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series, while continuing to maintain our market position in business of licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series.

The production cycle of a self-produced drama series, which primarily represents the period from filming to obtaining the TV Series Distribution License, typically ranges from 12 to 18 months. The revenue cycle of a self-produced drama series is approximately 36 months, compared to the revenue cycle of approximately 12 months for licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series. Despite the relatively longer production cycle and revenue cycle of self-produced drama series, we are committed to expanding our business of licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series primarily because (i) we can better manage and control the production quality of self-produced drama series. As the executive producer of self-produced drama series, we have the dominant rights to make decisions on scripts, casts, directors and post-production, which will enable us to control the overall quality of the drama series to meet the needs of the leading satellite TV channels and online medial platforms in the PRC. We believe superior quality of the drama series will likely command higher licensing fees from our customers; (ii) self-produced drama series can generate longer-term economic benefits compared with outright-purchased drama series. For our outright-purchased drama series, we generally have broadcasting rights ownership for a term ranging between one and 10 years. However, we typically have 50-year copyright ownership of self-produced drama series upon completion of the production, which allows us to have more flexibility in the distribution process, particularly the priority arrangement in broadcasting rounds and TV platforms selections; and (iii) producing our own drama series will enhance our brand awareness and improve our reputation and market recognition, which we believe will further stimulate the growth of our business. Going forward, we will consider a number of factors, including market demand, changes in customer preferences, availability of qualified drama series IPs and our financial condition and working capital requirements to determine which business segment will have more focus. It is not our current intention to shift our business strategy entirely from the business of licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series to the business of licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series.

Strengthen our market research, project development and production management capabilities for our self-produced drama series

As part of our dedicated efforts to refine our project development capabilities, we plan to continue to conduct market research to keep us with the latest trends and industry developments. Specifically, we intend to continue to participate in film and TV industry festivals, promotional meetings and other industry activities to obtain prevalent information about market demand, and at the same time, communicate with major customers and stakeholders in the PRC drama series industry, such as industry regulators, TV channels and online media platforms, to obtain the latest information about their content preferences and viewers’ demands. We believe these efforts will enable us to identify potentially popular stories, themes, ideas and concepts for script development that are likely to achieve market-wide acceptance and recognition.

Moreover, we intend to continue to identify and purchase the scripts and/or IPs that we believe are suitable for the development of our own drama series. This will enhance our reserve of the materials for potential drama series development. Our project department is generally responsible for making an initial assessment on the potential commercial success of the scripts and/or IPs. The creative writers of our project department frequently integrates existing resources, maintain constant contact with the publishers and writers, and learn about the literary creation trends from the major literary institutions and writers in order to obtain first-hand materials for drama series development. Based on the results of the market research we conduct and the key materials underlying the literary creation trends we identify, we intend to set the future development direction of a particular drama series and develop a viable business plan to execute the project. We will fund the production of additional drama series through cash generated from our operations, investments from third-parties under the co-financing arrangement and [REDACTED] from the [REDACTED]. For details of the intended use of the [REDACTED]ofthe[REDACTED] for the drama series we plan to self-produce, please see “Future Plans and [REDACTED]” in this document.

Producing a drama series generally takes a relatively long time to complete and requires a large amount of investment. Expanding the business of licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series will increase the proportion of costs incurred in connection with the drama series production, including the filming crew service fees, filming and production costs, procurement costs for scripts and post-production fees. As the production and distribution cycle of self-produced drama series is relatively long, it usually takes a longer period of time for us to receive income from self-produced drama series, which may put significant pressure on our profitability and operating cash flows. As a result, we will not be able to grow our self-produced drama series business without improving and strengthening our drama series production management capabilities. Accordingly, we intend to recruit more experienced production management personnel to supervise the relevant projects in which we are the executive producer of the drama series. Our recruitment criteria include, but not limited to, (i) having relevant work experience in the film and television industry; (ii) having excellent communication skills; (iii) being familiar with the entire production and distribution process of drama series; (iv) possessing the ability to develop projects independently; and (v) having a solid literacy and literary aesthetic skills to guide scriptwriting. In addition, we aim to provide more internal training to our staff, which will cover a broad spectrum of our business operations, including, among other things, background and development of the PRC drama series market and the major operation flows of our self-produced drama series business. We intend to encourage our staff to participate in industry events and activities to broaden their perspective. We believe these initiatives will help our team members develop their professional

– 160 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS knowledge, improve their skillsets and develop their talents, which, we believe, will allow us to create proprietary drama series that meet the expectations of different audience groups.

Continue to develop web series and capitalize on the growth opportunities in the PRC web series market

China’s Internet landscape is fast evolving through ongoing innovation, applications and content development. According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, China has the largest Internet and mobile Internet user base in the world. In 2019, the number of Internet video users in China reached approximately 646.6 million, accounting for 73.8% of the Internet users in China. The number of paying user/subscribers of the online media platforms increased at a CAGR of 38.4% from approximately 85.7 million in 2015 to approximately 314.8 million in 2019, and accounted for 85.7% of Internet video viewers in 2019. This number is expected to reach approximately 518.2 million by 2024, which is estimated to account for 62.2% of Internet video viewers in 2024.

Given that the web series market in the PRC is highly fragmented, and the revenue derived from the broadcasting of web series is expected to increase significantly, according to the Frost & Sullivan Report, our Directors are of the view that the web series market has substantial potential for growth. In light of this development, we have begun to dedicate substantial resources to develop and grow our self-produced drama series business focusing on the investment, creation, production and distribution of web series. We started to pay close attention to the development of web series since 2017. Before we tapped into this market, we conducted research with respect to various aspects of the web series market in China, including, among others, the market trend, content preferences of online media platforms and feedback from audiences. We analyzed a number of popular web series with solid reputation and audience ratings in this market and started to formulate our business plans for producing and distributing web series in early 2018. Based on our research, we discovered that romance, comedy, youth campus, mystery and fantasy are popular genres in web series market. Accordingly, we decided to first collect stories suitable for producing web series involving these genres. Our project department hired a number of screenwriters, and set up a planning and scripting team to develop the scripts of web series. At the same time, we also contacted different literary copyright companies to acquire the qualified IPs that we believe meet the content preferences and market demand of the online media platforms.

Based on the demographic characteristics and the market research we conduct on the Internet mobile users’ preferences regarding drama series, we plan to further increase our contact with reputable publishers and writers in order to source and identify suitable stories, themes and subjects that we believe will cater to Internet video viewers’ preferences. We also will engage more creative writers to join our project department who can help us frequently integrate existing resources, and discover literary creation trends in order to obtain first-hand materials for script development. Furthermore, we intend to strengthen communications with large online media platforms, which we identify to be major distribution channels for web series based on their user bases. Beginning in the first half of 2019, we collaborated with a leading online media platform in the PRC to produce our first web series, “Mr. Fox and Miss Rose” (酋長 的男人), a fantasy-based web series. We currently anticipate that this web series will complete production in the fourth quarter of 2019 and be broadcast in 2020. We will leverage our experience in the production and distribution of this web series to continue our expansion into the web series market. In addition to “Mr. Fox and Miss. Rose” (酋長的男人), we currently have a number of fantasy-, costume fairy- and science fiction-related web series that are in the stage of scripts creation. In particular, we intend to produce approximately four web series in the next three years. We expect to utilize our cash generated from operations, investments from third

THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS parties under the co-financing arrangement and [REDACTED] from the [REDACTED] to fund the production of these web series. For details of the intended use of the [REDACTED]ofthe [REDACTED] for self-produced web series, please see “Future Plans and [REDACTED]” in this document.

Continue to attract and retain talented professionals

We believe our staff plays a crucial role in our business expansion and growth. In order to continue to maintain our competitive advantage in the PRC drama series market, we intend to recruit additional professional talents while retaining our existing staff. We plan to target experienced professionals in the PRC drama series market, in particular, those who have exposures to investment, production and distribution of drama series. We believe these relevant experiences will bring immediate value-add to our existing operational capabilities and help us expand our business more rapidly. Therefore, in the next three years, we intend to recruit approximately 22 additional staff who possess the necessary skills and knowledge in the drama series market to manage and support our business expansion. For details of the intended use of the [REDACTED]ofthe[REDACTED] for the recruitment of additional staff, please refer to the section headed “Future Plans and [REDACTED]” in this document. In addition to experienced staff, we will also recruit college graduates who are keen to pursue a career in the PRC film and TV industry. We intend to provide a variety of training programs to bring such individuals up to speed, including orientation and on-the-job training to employees to strengthen staff commitment and enhance their skills and technical knowledge at work. For our existing staff, we will continue to provide internal and external training opportunities to enable them to expand their knowledge base, gain more exposure to the industry value chain and keep abreast of the evolving market trends and viewer preferences.

Licensing of the Broadcasting Rights of Self-Produced Drama Series

Overview

We commenced producing our own drama series and licensing the related broadcasting rights thereof to major TV channels in the PRC since our inception. We were inspired to explore the business opportunities associated with the distribution of self-produced drama series primarily by Mr. Yuan’s extensive experience and knowledge in the drama series industry.

For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, we distributed three, four and five self-produced drama series, respectively. The revenue generated by our licensing of the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series amounted to approximately RMB13.7 million, RMB7.0 million and RMB89.0 million, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, accounting for approximately 3.6%, 1.8% and 22.8% of our total revenue for the same periods, respectively.

Business Model

Our self-produced drama series business mainly consists of three stages: (i) planning and projection; (ii) filming and production; and (iii) distribution and promotion. The following diagram illustrates our business model relating to the licensing of the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series:

Suppliers Suppliers Suppliers (Assembling filming (Promotion and (Script/Screenwriter) crew, filming and marketing services) post-production)

Co-investors, if any

At the planning and projection stage, we search for potential scripts and/or IPs as the main sources to produce the relevant drama series. We either (i) act as the sole investor in such drama series, in which case we contribute all of the funding and are in charge of the entire production and distribution process. Accordingly, we are entitled to all of the copyrights of such drama series and bear all investment risks; or (ii) we cooperate with other investors in a co-financing arrangement, in which case we primarily act as the executive producer of the drama series.

– 164 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS

Under the co-financing arrangement, if we act as the executive producer, we would contribute all or a large portion of the investment amount and take a leading role in the production and distribution of such drama series. We are generally responsible for overseeing the entire production and distribution processes and managing the funds and budget in connection therewith, while the other minority investor(s) take a passive role with limited involvement in such process. We primarily target other co-investors who are institutional investors, such as TV channels and other drama series production companies. During the Track Record Period, we independently produced one drama series, and produced six drama series under the co-financing arrangement in which we acted as the executive producer.

At the filming and production stage and distribution and promotion stage, we work with third-party suppliers to procure a variety of services and products. Accordingly, for self-produced drama series, the costs incurred from planning to production of drama series mainly relate to, among other things, the creation, adaptation or procurement of scripts, casts, consumable items, such as costumes and props, rental expenses of various filming and shooting equipment, travel and accommodation expenses of the filming crew and post-production costs, including, among others, dubbing, editing and audio and video production. These services and products are generally provided by third-party service providers and suppliers. Our project department will formulate the budget for each project by taking into account the costs relating to the production and promotional and marketing activities. Upon receiving the approval from our management, we are primarily responsible for selecting the directors, actors and producers, and appointing third-party services providers to form the filming crew in connection with the production process. During such process, we actively manage different service suppliers and monitor the progress of the tasks of each of the parties involved to ensure we complete the production within the anticipated timetable in a cost-effective manner.

Once the production and post-production of the self-produced drama series are completed, we apply for and obtain the relevant approvals and distribution licenses from the government authorities. We subsequently license the broadcasting rights of the self-produced drama series to our customers, such as the major TV channels and online media platforms in the PRC. As the copyright owner/licensor of the drama series, we generally assist our customers in pre-broadcasting review and re-broadcasting review (if any) before the drama series are approved to be broadcast (or rebroadcast, as the case may be) on the TV channels. We also formulate marketing plans for the drama series and engage third-party service providers to undertake the promotional and marketing activities during the broadcasting stage of the drama series.

If there are minority co-investor(s) in the drama series for which we act as the executive producer, we either pay pre-determined fixed investment returns to such co-investor(s), or share the net license fee received by us from our customers with such co-investor(s) in the proportion of their respective investments.

Planning and Projecting. Our self-produced drama series business starts from the planning and projecting stage, which typically includes the following key processes:

• Project Development — Our project department regularly conducts market research to keep track of the trendy drama series and viewing hotspots, interesting topics and themes for drama series, popular broadcasting platforms and evolving market development. In addition, we regularly participate in entertainment festivals, promotional meetings and other industry activities to obtain relevant market demand information, and at the same time, communicate with major customers, such as TV channels, to obtain the latest information on viewer demand and initially gauge our customers’ intention to acquire the broadcasting rights. The creative writers of our project department frequently integrate existing resources, maintain constant contact with the publishers and writers, and learn about the literary creation trends from the major literary institutions and writers in order to obtain first-hand materials for drama series development. Based on the results of the market research we conduct and the key materials underlying the literary creation trends, our senior management generally sets the future development direction of a particular drama series and develop a viable business plan.

– 166 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS

• Script Planning — Our project department conducts the preliminary creative planning of drama series themes based on the relevant market research. There are usually three main creative sources for the themes of drama series scripts: (i) spontaneous creation based on a combination of viewer demand and market hotspots; (ii) adaptive work based on existing literary works; and (iii) scripts that are created as a result of a long-term relationships with well-known screenwriters. We either engage our in-house screenwriters or commission external screenwriters to write the scripts for the drama series to be produced. We may also purchase the copyrights of the scripts directly from Independent Third Parties.

• Project Review — After a script is ready, we typically organize a project planning team to review the project based on its theme and quality. In the meantime, our project planning team conducts a preliminary evaluation in relation to the feasibility of the new project based on the initial feedback from our distribution department. Once the new project receives favorable review results from our project planning team, our project investment committee will collectively review all aspects of the project for approval. We will advance to the project execution stage only after obtaining the approval of our project investment committee.

• Filing and Public Notice/Obtaining Project Permit — Subsequent to receiving our internal approval for the new project, our project department will make a filing with the relevant PRC government authorities and apply for the public notice of the new project in accordance with the Administrative Provisions on the Production and Management of Radio and Television Programs《廣播電視節目製作經營管理規定》 ( ) and the Administrative Measures of Record-filing and Announcement for Filming and Production of Drama Series《電視劇拍攝製作備案公示管理辦法》 ( ). We will commence filming and production of the drama series once the publication period is completed and the relevant production permit is obtained.

Filming and Production. The filming and production stage typically includes the following steps:

• Forming of Filming Crew — The filming crew is a unique production unit in the film and television industry. It is composed of a variety of professionals, including, among others, producer(s), director(s), actors, camera crew, makeup artists and sound recording and editing crew. Having taken into account the related costs, we generally appoint Independent Third Parties to be responsible for the operation of the filming crew. We usually designate a producer and an accountant to be responsible for effectively managing the budget and coordinating different working streams in the overall filming and production process.

• Filming — The time required to shoot a particular drama series is affected by a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the length and scale of the drama series, the availability and schedules of the actors, the conditions of the natural environment and filming studios, and the availability of funds. The filming period is usually three to six months, and the filming crew is dissolved after the shooting is completed, except for the executive producer, director and a limited number of the remaining filming crew who will participate in the post-production work.

– 167 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS

• Presale and Promotion — The sales and marketing of a drama series typically comprise presale, which occurs prior to the completion of the filming, and distribution, which occurs after the drama series had completed the filming and post-production. Presale is an important step in the sales and marketing efforts because presale activities facilitate the TV channels’ determination of the relevant broadcast schedules ahead of time and enable them to arrange for the time slots of various TV program lineups in a more efficient manner. It is also beneficial for us to take this opportunity to seize the market share of the drama series to be broadcast.

• Post-production — Post-production is the recreation and deep processing of the drama series shooting material, which has an important impact on the quality of edited drama series. The main tasks of this stage include screen dialogue editing, music recording, sound imitating, re-recording of sound effects, supplementary shooting of scenes, production of the captions at the beginning and end of the film and sound mixing, among other things.

Distribution and Promotion. The distribution and promotion stage is the last stage of our self-produced drama series business, which generally includes the following procedures:

• Internal Review — Once the drama series completes its post-production work, our post-production department and distribution department will conduct an overall evaluation of the quality of the drama series and the embedded commercials based on the quality-control standards we have in place. Any quality-related issue discovered during this process will be rectified before the drama series is submitted to the relevant government authorities for review.

• Application for Distribution — After our internal review, we will submit the drama series to the relevant PRC government review organization for content review. During the review process, we will also adjust and modify the content of certain drama series according to the opinions of the relevant PRC government review organization. After the examination is completed and the approval is issued, we will be granted the relevant TV Series Distribution License.

• Sales and Distribution — After obtaining the relevant drama series distribution license, we will be permitted to conduct sales and distribution activities, and to fulfill our obligations under the broadcasting rights transfer agreements that we entered into with our customers. During the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date, we mainly transferred the broadcasting rights to TV channels (including satellite TV channels and terrestrial TV channels), online media platforms, such as the online video streaming service providers, and other third-party companies engaged in the distribution of drama series.

• Feedback Summary — We have established an effective market summary, analysis and feedback mechanism. Recording the distribution information and related data throughout the entire process of producing the drama series not only helps us effectively maintain customer relations, but also provides important references for our planning, investment and distribution of new projects.

Differences between the Production and Distribution Processes of TV Series and Web Series

The operation flow of producing a web series is generally identical to the production of a TV series. The key differences are as follows:

• With respect to the selection of story genres, web series generally has more flexibility compared to TV series. As the broadcasting of TV series typically covers larger audiences from different age groups, a TV station has to consider the preferences of the mass audiences when it comes to selecting the appropriate genres of TV series to broadcast. As a result, the content and genres of most TV series we distribute, such as mainstream, history, war and family ethics, are, to a large extent, limited by the preferences and demands of the TV channels in China. For web series, however, since the Internet users are generally of younger age and pay for the content they would like to watch according to their individual interests and preferences, online media platforms are more likely to tailor the content of web series to serve the niche market and satisfy the particular demands of the Internet users. Therefore, we are in position to be able to select or create more diversified web series to satisfy the differentiating preferences of the younger audiences.

• With respect to the distribution process, we generally undertake the planning and projection, acquisition of IPs and script adaptation of the web series in the early stage. Once the script is completed, we will communicate with the online media platform to obtain its feedback and discuss the feasibility of such web series. If the online media platform approves the project, it will either (i) buy out the copyrights and bear full investment risks of such web series, or (ii) make proportional investment and share the profits according to the proportion of its investment. We will generally act as the producer to complete the filming and production of such web series. If the copyright of the web series is purchased by the online media platform, it will pay us the production fees according to the agreement. If the web series is jointly funded by the online media platform and us, other than the production fees we will receive from the online media platform, we will also share the profits with such platform, which are usually determined based on the click volume of the viewers and advertising income received by the online media platform during the web series broadcasting period.

• During the distribution stage, before making a web series available to be broadcast on the online media platforms in the PRC, we are required to make a filing with the relevant authorities and obtain a filing number for such web series.

Broadcasting Rights Transfer Arrangements between Us and Our Customers

Once we complete the production of our own drama series, we generally enter into formal broadcasting rights transfer agreements with our customers. According to these agreements, we grant our customers various exclusive or non-exclusive rights to broadcast the relevant drama series.

Licensing of the Broadcasting Rights of Outright-purchased Drama Series

Overview

In addition to licensing the broadcasting rights of our self-produced drama series, we also engage in licensing the broadcasting rights of drama series that we purchased from third-party copyright owners/licensors. We commenced distributing outright-purchased drama series in the second half of 2016, primarily because (i) the production period for self-produced drama series, which ranges from one to two years, is relatively long; and (ii) we intended to expand our business, especially to increase our distribution scale of purchased drama series to maintain our sales network and relationships with various customers. We believe the drama series copyright owners/licensors are inclined to sell us the right to use, and the right to transfer the broadcasting rights of, the particular drama series, rather than dealing directly with the TV channels primarily due to the following reasons:

• Our chairman, Mr. Yuan, has over 21 years of experience in the PRC film and TV industry. Before founding our Company, he had accumulated abundant professional knowledge of the production and distribution of drama series and established relationships with numerous TV channels, which enabled us to maintain a large distribution network and continue to explore cooperation opportunities with these customers;

• Given the fragmented nature of the PRC drama series production market, the long production cycle of drama series and the pressure on capital recovery, small and medium-sized drama series production companies, which generally do not have their own distribution departments or sales teams, usually prefer to license the broadcasting rights of drama series to experienced distribution companies to shorten the payback cycle and recover their investments quickly; and

– 177 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS

• During the Track Record Period, the production volume of drama series each year in the PRC was significantly higher than the number of drama series broadcast. Compared with companies with smaller distribution scales, we had a proven track record of successfully distributing drama series that satisfied the demands of TV channels who are our customers. Therefore, we believe that third-party copyright owners/licensors are inclined to engage us for the distribution of the broadcasting rights of the drama series because the drama series distributed by us are more likely to attract the attention of TV channels.

The transaction procedures involved in the distribution of drama series are complicated and time-consuming. When purchasing the drama series, we discuss many details with third-party copyright owners/licensors, including price negotiation, assessments on drama series for broadcasting on satellite TV channels, content adjustments, scheduling for broadcasting, promotion and distribution. To facilitate TV channels to procure drama series that meet their preferences and demands, we provide the following value-added services to our customers:

• we have established a distribution department with experienced personnel to maintain close communications with the drama series procurement departments of various TV channels and keep abreast of their preferences and demands of the drama series in various aspects, including genres, quality standard of production and casts. We then actively look for drama series from the third-party copyright owners/licensors that match the preferences of the TV channels and make proper recommendations, which we believe will improve their efficiency in selecting the appropriate TV series for broadcasting;

• we generally formulate a marketing plan for each of the drama series we distribute and engage third-party marketing service providers to promote the drama series on new media and/or online social platforms. We pay close attention to the feedback from the viewers and the ratings of each drama series, and timely report such information to the relevant TV channels; and

• we have abundant reserves of drama series copyrights, which enable us to provide TV channels with “a basket of solutions” for the scheduling and broadcasting of drama series during a specific time slot. Under such arrangement, we supply various rerun broadcasting contents to our customers and provide them with professional advice for drama series scheduling and planning, such as the drama series supply service agreement we entered into with Customer J. Please see “Strategic Cooperation Arrangements” in this section for details.

We believe that, as a professional drama series distribution company, we have deep insight into the drama series market, which enables us to effectively match the needs of downstream TV channels and online media platforms with the drama series from upstream copyright owners/licensor, and helps us enhance the distribution efficiency of drama series in terms of content matching, price negotiation and promotion.

Under this business segment, we procure the copyrights of the drama series primarily from third-party copyright owners/licensors based on the particular needs of our customers. We either purchase the entire copyright of the drama series (in which case, we are entitled to license the broadcasting rights to our customers in any region in the PRC for any period of time), or we only purchase the rights to use, or the rights to transfer the broadcasting rights of, the drama series in certain designated regions of the PRC for a specific period of time. We generally enter into the content distribution agreements with the copyright owners/licensors to obtain the rights to use, or the rights to license the broadcasting rights of, the particular drama series. Subsequently, we distribute the relevant drama series to our customers, who are generally major TV channels in the PRC. We have also distributed certain of the drama series to various leading online media platforms.

Operation Flow

Conduct Market Research to Assess the Potential of the Drama Series. Our project department and distribution department conduct market research on a regular basis to monitor evolving market trends, viewing hotspots, and interesting topics and themes for drama series. In addition, we keep regular contact with various TV channels and online media platforms to stay informed about their demands, especially their broadcasting schedules and specific drama series content requirements or preferences. Our customers will determine the broadcasting round based on their procurement budget.

With several years of development in the business of licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series, our project department and distribution department have established stable cooperative relationships with our suppliers. Generally, other drama production agencies proactively approach us for our provision of distribution services. They usually will recommend to us the drama series they are producing or have produced.

Project Evaluation and Matching the Demands of Customers. When we become aware of the demands and content preferences of the TV channels, our distribution department staff will then actively look for the relevant drama series that meet the requirements of these customers. Once we determine that the drama series copyright owners/licensors are inclined to sell the rights to transfer the broadcasting rights of a drama series to us, we will set up a dedicated project team internally to follow up on the business opportunities. We will comprehensively evaluate the drama series that we intend to purchase to ensure that such drama series match the demands of our customers. Our assessments mainly cover (i) policy evaluation, which ensures that the content of our purchased drama series comply with the relevant PRC regulations and that they do not contain any racial or discriminatory languages; (ii) quality evaluation, which involves the assessment of the content of a drama series, including the structure of plot, shaping of characters and actors’ lines; and (iii) commercial evaluation, including the assessment of investment value, our available funds, relevant marketing budget and estimated profitability analysis.

Entering into Content Distribution Agreements with the Drama Series Copyright Owners/Licensors. Before entering into the content distribution agreements with the relevant drama series copyrights owners/licensors, we usually approach and communicate with our target TV channels to obtain their feedback on such drama series. If a preliminary understanding is reached between the target TV channel and us, we will obtain the distribution approval from our management, and subsequently enter into a formal content distribution agreement with the relevant drama series copyright owners/licensor, pursuant to which it will grant us an exclusive or non-exclusive right to use, or the right to transfer the broadcasting rights of, the particular drama series in the specified markets or platforms for an agreed period of time. The duration of the content distribution agreements typically varies from one to 10 years. For more information, see “— Salient Terms of the Content Distribution Agreements with Drama Series Copyright Owners/Licensors” in this section. We generally determine the licensing fees for the copyrights or broadcasting rights to be paid to third-party drama series copyright owners/licensors based on our reasonable estimate of the gross profit margin for the particular drama series in light of the budget, content and quality requirements and the desired broadcasting time slots of our customers, as well as the prevailing market price of similar drama series.

Entering into Broadcasting Rights Transfer Agreements with Our Customers. Under the broadcasting rights transfer agreements we entered into with our customers, we granted the right to use, or the right to license the broadcasting rights of the drama series to our customers. The duration of the broadcasting rights of the drama series we licensed to our customers generally matches or does not exceed the duration of the broadcasting rights we acquired from the respective drama series copyright owners/licensors. We have the discretion to negotiate the terms of the broadcasting rights transfer agreements and set the amount of the license fees. See “— Broadcasting Rights Transfer Arrangements between Us and Our Customers” for details. During the Track Record Period, we primarily licensed the broadcasting rights of the drama series to third-party TV channels, broadcasting companies and online media platforms, which released such drama series to viewers across the PRC.

Content Distribution Arrangements between the Drama Series Copyright Owners/Licensors and Us

We generally enter into content distribution agreements with the drama series copyright owners/licensors pursuant to which various exclusive or non-exclusive rights to use, or the rights to license the broadcasting rights of, the drama series are granted to our Group in certain territories in the PRC and/or online. Such rights may include the rights to broadcast the drama series through satellite TV channels and/or terrestrial TV channels, as well as the Internet distribution rights.

Salient Terms of the Content Distribution Agreements with Drama Series Copyright Owners/Licensors

The following table sets forth the salient terms of our content distribution agreements with third-party drama series copyright owners/licensors during the Track Record Period:

Subjects Salient Terms

Licensed subject ...... Each content distribution agreement generally covers a particular drama series

License period ...... Generally a range between one and 10 years

Right to use content/rights to Usually include TV broadcasting rights, such as the rights to broadcast transfer broadcasting rights. . . via satellite TV channels and terrestrial TV channels.

Such fee is generally payable by us in separate installments. The settlement period in each agreement varies. Pursuant to the content distribution agreements, we generally (i) settle the first installment of the license fees after receiving, confirming and examining all authorizations, licenses and a full set of broadcasting tapes from the copyright owners/licensors; (ii) settle an additional amount of the license fees within a prescribed period as stipulated in the agreement; and (iii) settle the remainder within an agreed period after the broadcasting of such drama series.

Broadcasting Rights Transfer Arrangements between Us and Our Customers

Once we have entered into content distribution agreements with the drama series copyright owners/licensors and purchased the relevant distribution rights to broadcast the drama series in certain regions of the PRC and/or online, we will subsequently enter into broadcasting rights transfer agreements with our customers, pursuant to which we will grant them various exclusive or non-exclusive rights to broadcast the relevant drama series.

As a market practice, the drama series copyright owners/licensors will generally not be involved in the negotiation of the terms of the broadcasting rights transfer agreements between our Group and our customers. We have the discretion to determine the specific terms of the broadcasting rights transfer agreements, including, among other things, the license fees or royalty payable to us by our customers, the broadcasting scope and term of the licensing arrangement. Leveraging our Chairman’s extensive experience in the drama series market and our stable relationships with various TV channels in China, we are able to identify the differentiating needs of our customers in respect of their preferences for the content of the drama series to be broadcast and the different broadcasting time slots. Accordingly, we are able to license the broadcasting rights of the purchased drama series to particular TV channels based on their needs. In addition, by licensing the rights to use, or the rights to transfer the broadcasting of, the particular drama series to our Group, the drama series copyright owners/licensors will be able to avoid direct negotiations with the TV channels, which could be complicated and time consuming, and achieve quick returns on their investment. As a result, a large number of drama series copyright owners/licensors prefer to sell the right to use, or the right to transfer the broadcasting rights of, the particular drama series to us, instead of dealing directly with the TV channels.

The major terms of the broadcasting rights transfer agreements we enter into with our customers for the drama series we purchased from third-party copyright owners/licensors are generally similar to those we enter into for our self-produced drama series. Please see “— Licensing of the Broadcasting Rights of Self-Produced Drama Series — Broadcasting Rights Transfer Arrangements between Us and Our Customers — Salient Terms of the Broadcasting Rights Transfer Agreements with Our Customers” in this section for further details.

Strategic Cooperation Arrangements

During the Track Record Period, we also entered into strategic cooperation arrangements with certain of our major customers. Pursuant to such arrangement, we enjoy priority consideration from our cooperation partners in broadcasting a predetermined number of drama series from us within a specified period of time. We believe this arrangement help us secure revenue sources by ensuring that there will be stable demand for the drama series we purchase or produce.

For instance, in June 2018, we entered into a strategic cooperation agreement with Customer C, for a term of five years. Pursuant to this agreement, (i) we agree to give Customer C priority to purchase the drama series produced or distributed by us; (ii) Customer C agrees to give us priority for purchasing the drama series produced or distributed by us and arrange for such drama series to be broadcast on the satellite TV channel operated by Customer C; (iii) Customer C agrees to give us priority to be paid when purchasing drama series from us; and (iv) Customers C has priority to make investment in the drama series that we plan to produce or invest in.

– 184 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS

In addition, in April 2019, we entered into a drama series supply service agreement with Customer J, for a term of one year, which was effective from April 1, 2019 to March 31, 2020. Pursuant to this agreement, (i) we agree to supply Customer J with the drama series we purchased from copyright owners/licensors to be broadcast on its satellite TV channel during each afternoon at 13:30 (in particular, five episodes each afternoon from Monday to Saturday and three episodes on Sunday); (ii) we are required to license the broadcasting rights of the drama series to Customer J for afternoon broadcasting with an aggregate episodes of no less than 1,030, or at least 60% of the total number of episodes estimated to be broadcast on Customer J’s satellite TV channel during the year; (iii) we agree to jointly formulate the broadcasting schedules/plans with Customer J; and (iv) Customer J is required to pay cooperation fees to us on a monthly basis only if the monthly average ratings of the drama series reach 0.1 or above and the drama series broadcasted ranks tenth or above during the same broadcasting time slot.

Notes:

(1) The date of the TV Series Distribution License represents the date on which a particular drama series is approved by the relevant bureaus of radio and television in the PRC for distribution.

(2) Pursuant to the joint investment agreement we entered into with the third-party executive producer of this drama series, we are responsible for licensing the broadcasting rights of “Dream on the Side of the Sea” (夢在海這邊) to the satellite channel of Zhejiang Television Station (浙江衛視), while the executive producer is responsible for licensing the broadcasting rights of this drama series to other customers. The satellite channel of Zhejiang Television Station is required to pay us license fees, which shall be subsequently shared by us with the executive producer based on the proportion of our investment. As a result, the license fees we received from the satellite channel of Zhejiang Television Station during the Track Record Period were recognized as revenue from the licensing of the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series. Please refer to the paragraphs headed “— Investment in Drama Series as a Non-executive Producer” in this section for more details of the co-financing arrangement of this drama series.

We do not expect to generate revenue from these outright-purchase drama series disclosed in the table above for the year ending December 31, 2020.

Other Businesses

Other than licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced and outright-purchased drama series, we also generated revenue during the Track Record Period from (i) selling the drama series script copyrights; (ii) acting as an agent for the drama series copyright owner/licensor in connection with the distribution of such drama series; and (iii) making investments in the production of drama series as a non-executive producer.

Sales of Drama Series Script Copyrights

During the Track Record Period, we purchased certain scripts of potential drama series to be made from third-party copyright owners. We were able to acquire the script copyrights by capitalizing on the relationships we maintained with numerous creative professionals, including screenwriters, novelists and publishers. These professionals are either the parties that we had previously worked with in connection with our self-produced drama series business, or those whose scripts may have the substance or themes that we believe could potentially cater to the demands and preferences of the broadcasting platforms. In 2017, we sold the script copyrights we acquired to certain third-party production companies from time to time. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, the revenue generated from the sales of the script copyrights was approximately RMB19.7 million, nil and nil, respectively, accounting for approximately 5.2%, nil and nil of our total revenue, respectively, for the same periods.

Acting as a Distribution Agent of the Drama Series

Beginning in the first half of 2019, we acted as a distribution agent for the copyright owners/licensors of the drama series who approach us from time to time given our well-established relationships with our customers. As a distribution agent, we promote the relevant drama series to the TV channels and negotiate the terms and conditions in connection with the licensing of the broadcasting rights of such drama series with them on behalf of the drama series copyright owners/licensors. Upon agreeing to the terms and conditions, the relevant copyright owners/licensors of the drama series will enter into a contract with the TV channels and license the broadcasting rights to them directly. We generally charge the relevant copyright owner/licensor of the drama series a distribution agency fee for our services, which is calculated based on a fixed percentage of the license fee to be received by the copyright owner from the TV channels. The rate of the distribution agency fee we typically receive is approximately 15.0% of the license fee. We collect distribution agency fee after the copyright owner/licensors of the drama series has received the relevant license fee from the TV channels. The revenue we received from this business for the year ended December 31, 2019 was approximately RMB9.5 million, accounting for approximately 2.4% of our total revenue.

Investment in Drama Series as a Non-executive Producer

During the Track Record Period, we entered into co-financing arrangements with the executive producers of certain drama series under which we acted as a non-executive producer. As a non-executive producer, we usually make investments in the drama series and take a passive role with limited involvement in the production and distribution of the relevant drama series. By leveraging on our industry expertise and extensive experience in producing and distributing drama series, we collaborate with the executive producers and offer valuable insights and advice to them in various stages of drama series production, such as casting, filming, post-production and quality control, as well as the distribution of the drama series.

We usually generate income from our investment by sharing the net license fee with the executive producers of the drama series and other non-executive producers, if any, in the proportion of the respective investments. We typically receive our portion of the net license fee from the executive producers by installments on specific milestone dates. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, income we received from licensing of the broadcasting rights under co-financing arrangement amounted to nil, RMB3.1 million and RMB14.0 million, respectively, accounting for nil, 0.8% and 3.5%, respectively, of our total revenue.

FIXED RETURN INVESTMENT

Fixed Return Investment in Drama Series as an Investor

In addition to our principal businesses, we also make Fixed Return Investment in the drama series in which we do not act as the executive producer. We enter into investment agreements with the executive producers of the drama series and receive fixed return on our investment.

Our business of Fixed Return Investment in drama series and the related business model are summarized below:

Investment in drama series

During the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date, we made Fixed Return Investment in three drama series as a non-executive producer, including “Mr. Nanny” (月嫂先生), “Hunting Actions” (獵金行動) and “Unexpected Life” (不期而遇的人生). As of the Latest Practicable Date, the Fixed Return Investments made by us had been fully settled.

Under this arrangement, we only make capital investment in such drama series and receive fixed investment returns based on the annual interest rate, which typically range between 10.0% and 20.0% as specified in the relevant agreement regardless of the sales performance of the relevant drama series. The fixed interest rate is generally determined by market conditions and negotiated at arm’s length between us and the executive producers of the relevant drama series by taking into account the market rate of return. During the Track Record Period, our investment period was usually a year.

Salient Terms of Fixed Return Investment Agreements

We normally enter into Fixed Return Investment agreements on a project-by-project basis (regardless of whether we act as an investor or investee). These agreements typically contain the following salient terms:

Subjects Salient Terms

Investment amount ...... Theinvestment in a drama series is a fixed amount, typically ranging from RMB1.0 million to RMB15.0 million, which represents a relatively small portion of the total estimated investment in such drama series.

Fixed annual interest rate ...... Theannual interest rate of Fixed Return Investment is stipulated in the agreement, usually ranging between 9.0% and 25.0% per annum.

Differences between Fixed Return Investment and Investment in Drama Series under Co-financing Arrangement as a Non-executive Producer

We either invest in drama series by (i) entering into the co-investment agreement with executive producers of the drama series; or (ii) making Fixed Return Investment. The differences between Fixed Return Investment and investment in drama series under co-financing arrangement as a non-executive producer generally include:

• Roles of the parties: Under Fixed Return Investment, the investor takes no risk in the distribution and sales performance of the drama series and receives fixed investment returns from the executive producer, whereas the non-executive producer under co-financing arrangement generally shares the license fees and investment risk with the executive producer based on the proportion of investment.

• Rights and responsibilities of the parties: Under Fixed Return Investment, the investee is responsible for the production and distribution of the drama series, and the investor typically does not participate in or only has limited involvement in the production and/or distribution process. However, under the co-financing arrangement, the executive producer takes a leading role in the production and distribution of the drama series, and the non-executive producer has limited involvement in the production and/or distribution process, the extent of which is generally larger than that of the investor under the Fixed Return Investment, including providing advice in relation to the production process to and determining certain crucial matters jointly with the executive producers.

• Investment returns: Under Fixed Return Investment, the investor is entitled to fixed investment return based on the principal, agreed interest rate and investment period of the drama series, whereas the investment return under the co-financing arrangement as a non-executive producer is based on the sales performance of the drama series and will be distributed in proportion based on the investment amount of each investor.

• Risk exposures: Fixed Return Investment provides a fixed return on investment to the investor according to the agreed rate of return. However, investment under the co-financing arrangement as a non-executive producer exposes the investor to the risk of variable returns.

According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, both Fixed Return Investment and investment in drama series under the co-financing arrangement as a non-executive producer are common in our industry.

PRICING POLICY

With respect to our pricing strategies, we generally price our products with reference to our cost-estimate of each drama series together with other commercial factors. We determine the license fee based on a variety of factors, including, among other things, the broadcasting platforms to be used by the potential customer for broadcasting the drama series (i.e., whether the drama series will be broadcast on satellite TV channels or terrestrial TV channels), the

– 198 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS broadcasting schedules (whether the drama series will be first-run broadcast or rerun broadcast) and related broadcasting time slots (whether the drama series will be broadcast during prime time or non-prime time), the cost of purchasing the relevant copyrights or broadcasting rights, prevailing market prices, estimated costs in connection with promotion and marketing of the drama series and our target profit margin.

Our price per episode of a drama series broadcast on satellite TV channels is usually higher than that for terrestrial TV channels because satellite TV channels are able to reach more viewers and are capable of obtaining market feedback to achieve meaningful scale more quickly. Additionally, our price per episode for rerun broadcast of a drama series is generally lower than that for first-run broadcast.

The following table sets forth the price range per episode for our drama series in terms of the broadcasting platforms and broadcasting schedules during the Track Record Period:

Platforms and Schedules for Broadcasting the Drama Series Price per Episode

First-run broadcast – Satellite TV channels...... RMB60,000 – RMB2.3 million – Terrestrial TV channels...... RMB1,500 – RMB53,000 – Online media platforms and other customers ...... N/A

Rerun broadcast – Satellite TV channels ...... RMB200 – RMB540,000 – Terrestrial TV channels...... RMB350 – RMB25,000 – Online media platforms and other customers ...... RMB6,050 – RMB170,000

SALES AND MARKETING

We generally distribute the drama series sourced from the drama series copyright owners/licensors directly to our customers. We have a strong on-the-ground business development team that is in charge of establishing and maintaining relationships with TV channels and media companies, as well as online media platforms we work with to provide access to our services. We strive to promote the relevant drama series to them as we believe our distribution capability is important to both of our business of licensing of the broadcasting rights and acting as the distribution agent. Considering the fierce competition in the market for distributing drama series, we adjust our sales and marketing strategy from time to time according to our performance. In addition, we actively participate and/or organize marketing booths at industry trade fairs and conventions on a regular basis each year to promote our drama series to our potential customers, including, among other things, Beijing Television Festival (北京電視節), Beijing Television Program Exchange Fair – Spring/Fall Sessions (北京春季╱秋季節目交流會) and Shanghai Television Festival (上海電視節). Through these trade fairs and conventions, we are able to showcase our drama series to existing and potential customers, expand our customer base, enhance our drama series offerings and raise our profile in the industry.

– 199 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS

In addition to attending trade fairs and conventions, we also visit our customers and drama series copyright owners/licensors on a regular basis to negotiate our distribution services with them as part of the presale activities during the filming and production of such drama series. We believe that these frequent opportunities to meet with our existing and potential suppliers and customers have provided us with abundant opportunities to maintain and foster fruitful business relationships, and in the meantime, closely monitor the market trends in different regions in China.

Moreover, in order to enhance the audience exposure of the drama series distributed by our Group, we usually formulate the relevant promotion and marketing strategies and engage specialized marketing service providers, who are Independent Third Parties, to implement such promotion and marketing plans. The marketing activities conducted by the third-party service providers generally include, among others, devising posters, setting up billboards and promoting the drama series on new media and/or online social platforms. We formulate the promotion and marketing strategy of each drama series based on a number of factors, including (i) the drama series content; (ii) TV channels on which the drama series to be broadcast; (iii) broadcasting rounds; and (iv) the competition from other drama series being broadcast during the same time slot. We generally discuss our marketing plans and budget with the third-party service providers, make payments to such service providers in installments and settle the marketing fees with them after the broadcasting of the drama series is completed.

During the time a particular drama series is being broadcast, we closely monitor public perception and audience feedback. After a drama series is broadcast, the third-party marketing service provider usually will prepare a summary report on the implementation of our marketing plan, analyze the effectiveness of the marketing strategy and provide us with important reference data, which we believe will continue to effectively improve and enhance our promotional and marketing ability.

We recorded the fees paid to the third-party marketing service providers as a part of our cost of sales in our consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income during the Track Record Period. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, our promotion and marketing expenses amounted to approximately RMB152.0 million, RMB132.6 million and RMB63.3 million, respectively, which accounted for approximately 40.1%, 34.4% and 16.2% of our total revenue during the same period, respectively.

OUR CUSTOMERS

During the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date, our Group’s major customers primarily included TV channels (including satellite TV channels and terrestrial TV channels) and online media platforms.

For the year ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, the revenue attributable to our five largest customers was approximately RMB278.7 million, RMB317.2 million and RMB288.2 million, respectively, which accounted for approximately 73.6%, 82.3% and 73.8% of our total revenue for the same periods, respectively. For the same periods, the revenue attributable to our largest customer was approximately RMB107.3 million, RMB148.2 million and RMB160.6 million, respectively, which accounted for approximately 28.3%, 38.4% and 41.1% of our total revenue, respectively. As we expanded our business during the Track Record Period, we have

– 200 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS established cooperation with more TV channels and new online media platforms, which led to further diversification of our customer base. According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, it is an industry practice for drama series production companies to rely on a limited number of important customers from year to year.

During the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date, none of our Directors, their respective close associates, or any Shareholder (who, to the knowledge of our Directors, owned more than 5% of our issued capital as of the Latest Practicable Date), held any interest in any of our five largest customers for the Track Record Period.

Except for Customer C and Customer N, none of our top five customers was also our suppliers during the Track Record Period.

Customer C is an indirect subsidiary of a television station in Tianjin, which is the same entity as Supplier L. In 2017, 2018 and 2019, we licensed the broadcasting rights of several drama series to Customer C for a total license fee of approximately RMB107.3 million, RMB86.3 million and RMB19.4 million, respectively, representing approximately 28.3%, 22.4% and 5.0%, respectively, of our total revenue. On the other hand, Customer C/Supplier L licensed the broadcasting rights of various drama series to us for an amount of approximately RMB17.4 million during the Track Record Period, which allowed us to distribute the relevant drama series to other customers. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, the gross profit margin of Customer C was approximately 20.4%, 26.2% and 27.9%, respectively, compared to the gross profit margin of approximately 19.9%, 25.7% and 36.5% of other customers for the same periods, respectively. The relatively lower gross profit margin of Customer C compared to other customers for the year ended December 31, 2019 was primarily because we had several self-produced and outright-purchased drama series, including “A Gallant Army” (老虎隊), “Road to Rebirth” (愛在星空下) and “Dream on the Side of the Sea” (夢在海這邊), that were broadcast on various leading satellite TV channels in the PRC other than the satellite TV channel operated by Customer C during 2019. These leading satellite TV channels include a state-owned TV channel and the satellite channel of Zhejiang Television Station (浙江衛視), which had a higher rating than the satellite TV channel operated by Customer C, according to the Frost & Sullivan Report. Therefore, these drama series had relatively higher gross profit margins for the year ended December 31, 2019, resulting in a higher gross profit margin of our other customers compared to the gross profit margin of Customer C in 2019. In addition, the ultimate beneficial owner of Supplier J is Customer N. During the Track Record Period, Supplier J had also been one of our customers. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, Supplier J licensed the broadcasting rights of various drama series to us for an amount of nil, approximately RMB62.2 million and RMB0.6 million, respectively. On the other hand, we licensed the broadcasting rights of several drama series to Customer N and Supplier J and provided distribution agency services to Supplier J for an aggregate license fee and distribution agency fee of approximately RMB15.7 million, RMB8.5 million and RMB42.3 million, respectively, for the same years. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, the gross profit margin of Customer N and Supplier J was approximately 20.2%, 26.5% and 41.6%, respectively.

According to Frost & Sullivan Report, it is normal in the PRC drama series industry that certain TV channels engage drama series production companies that have marketing and distribution capabilities to distribute their drama series. Our Directors confirmed that our sales and purchases with Customer C and Customer N were conducted in the ordinary course of business under normal commercial terms during the Track Record Period.

CREDIT CONTROL

We have adopted stringent credit control procedures and we check our working capital on an on-going basis to minimize potential credit risks. We have established a record system to monitor the receivables and outstanding invoices. Our accounting staff reports regularly to our senior management and we analyze and formulate relevant procedures to collect outstanding fees. In general, we granted a credit period ranging from 60 days to one year from the date of billing to our customers. Please refer to the section headed “Financial Information — Description of Certain Key Items from Our Consolidated Statement of Financial Position — Trade and Bills Receivables” in this document.

DRAMA SERIES COPYRIGHTS

We produce or purchase drama series copyrights in connection with our operations. Therefore, the concept of inventory does not strictly apply to us. Instead, the drama series copyrights on our balance sheet represent the assets of which we can license the relevant broadcasting rights. As of December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, we had drama series copyrights on hand amounting to approximately RMB102.3 million, RMB169.4 million and RMB179.0 million, respectively.

Although we generally start the production of our drama series without receiving a purchase commitment from our customers, for the drama series we produced during the Track Record Period, we have been able to gauge customers’ interest before production was completed. We believe that is attributable to the popularity and quality of our drama series, our long-term close cooperation with our customers and our consistent efforts to seek customer’s feedbacks from the outset of the production process.

OUR SUPPLIERS

Our major suppliers primarily include (i) producers or copyrights owners of the drama series, who license the copyrights or broadcasting rights of the drama series to us; and (ii) third-party service providers relating to drama series production and promotional activities. As of the Latest Practicable Date, we had established relationships with our five largest suppliers for the Track Record Period for periods ranging from one to four years. For the three years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, purchases from our five largest suppliers were approximately RMB253.4 million, RMB347.6 million and RMB216.0 million, respectively, which accounted for approximately 69.9%, 81.0% and 76.1% of our total purchases, respectively. During the same periods, purchases from our largest supplier were approximately RMB101.1 million, RMB180.7 million and RMB91.5 million, respectively, which accounted for approximately 27.9%, 42.1% and 32.2% of our total purchases, respectively.

We select suppliers based on their reputation, past experience, the scope of the task and the quality of services/products to be provided and their proposed prices.

During the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable date, none of our Directors, their respective close associates, or any Shareholder (who, to the knowledge of our Directors, owned more than 5% of our issued capital as of the Latest Practicable Date), held any interest in any of our five largest suppliers for the Track Record Period.

For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, our revenue attributable to this customer was nil, nil and approximately RMB14.0 million, respectively, which primarily represented the proportional license fees we received from the executive producer for licensing the broadcasting rights of “Dream on the Side of the Sea” (夢在海這邊) under the co-financing arrangements.

(6) These two suppliers were controlled by the same individual, who is an Independent Third Party. BUSINESS 1 – 210 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS

All of our five largest suppliers during the Track Record Period are Independent Third Parties. Our Directors confirmed that there are no past or present relations, whether business, family, financing or otherwise, between each of our Group’s five largest suppliers and our Group, including our shareholders, directors, subsidiaries, senior management or any of their respective associates.

For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2018, the aggregate amount of promotional and marketing expenses attributable to our five largest suppliers was approximately RMB0.5 million and RMB10.1 million, respectively, less than the amount specified in the relevant agreements that we entered into with such suppliers. When we enter into a relevant agreement with our suppliers for the promotional and marketing services, we usually formulate a preliminary promotional and marketing plan to improve the execution efficiency of the relevant suppliers. During the broadcasting period of our drama series, we will closely monitor the rating, popularity and audience’s feedback through various media websites. We may, under mutual consent, increase or reduce the previously agreed promotional and marketing fees based on the results and effects of the promotional and marketing campaigns conducted by such suppliers when we settle such fees with them in installments. The discrepancy in 2017 and 2018 was primarily attributable to the adjustments we made based on the actual results of the promotional and marketing services provided by certain of our five largest suppliers during such years.

The table below sets forth a breakdown of the discrepancy between the promotional and marketing fees we paid to our five largest suppliers during the Track Record Period and the amount specified in the relevant agreements for the years indicated:

Total ...... (525) (10,070) –

Note:

(1) The amount of discrepancy represents the amount of the promotional and marketing fees and applicable taxes we paid to our five largest suppliers during the Track Record Period. Due to the fierce competition in the drama series promotion market in 2018, the preliminary marketing fees we set with certain of our suppliers were relatively high. The discrepancy in the promotional and marketing fees was approximately RMB10.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 with respect to this supplier mainly because there were 27 drama series with promotional services provided by this supplier that did not achieve our expected marketing effects during that year. Accordingly, we, with the mutual consent from the supplier, adjusted the final settlement amount of the promotional and marketing fees.

Save as disclosed above, our Directors confirmed that there was no other discrepancy between the promotional and marketing expenses payable to our five largest suppliers and the amount specified in the relevant agreements that we entered into with such suppliers during the Track Record Period.

QUALITY CONTROL

We have adopted internal examination and approval procedures and guidelines for our production process, which aims to serve both compliance and quality control purposes for the drama series produced by us. During the process of producing a drama series, we monitor the scope and progress of the services provided by our third-party suppliers on a regular basis and provide our feedback to them during the course of production. We also communicate with our customers regularly throughout the planning, preparation and execution stages of the production. Upon completion of the production of a drama series, we will review the content to ensure that (i) it is in compliance with regulatory requirements and applicable laws in the PRC; and (ii) it meets the specific content or technical requirements of our customers. Any content that promotes obscenity or violence or undermines social morality shall be strictly prohibited. We also keep constant contact and actively coordinate with responsible personnel of our target customers who in turn conduct examination of our work from compliance and technical perspective. Our head of production team will conduct a final review of the drama series before it is delivered to our customers.

Our Directors confirm that there had been no material dispute, lawsuit, or arbitration brought against us due to dissatisfaction of customers during the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

Due to the nature of our business, we mainly focus on investment in, production and distribution of drama series and we do not have a research and development department during the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date.

COMPETITION

According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, the drama series market in China is highly competitive and fragmented with a number of competitive participants with differentiated capabilities. The entry barriers of the drama series market in the PRC are relatively high as a result of strict supervision by the relevant government authorities, large capital requirement, demand for experience professionals and reputable brand name. According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, in terms of revenue, the top 20 players in the PRC drama series distribution market in the aggregate accounted for approximately 15.6% of the drama series distribution market in the PRC in 2018. Our Group ranked 16th among the drama series groups in the PRC in terms of revenue, with a market share of approximately 0.34%, and second in terms of the number of TV series first broadcast on satellite TV channels in the PRC in 2018. Please refer to the section headed “Industry Overview” in this document for further details.

We primarily compete with other market players on the service and content offerings, the size and engagement levels, the distribution capability, the understanding of customers’ needs, the availability of financial resources, and the ability to respond quickly and effectively to evolving market trends. We believe our competitive strengths lie in our scripts sourcing, experienced production team and close and stable relationships with our customers, which enable us to achieve a leading position in the market. Please refer to the paragraph headed “— Competitive Strengths” in this section for further details.

As of the Latest Practicable Date, Beijing LiTian had not obtained the Radio and Television Program Production and Operation Permit (廣播電視節目製作經營許可證) because it was established in May 2019 and had not undertaken any business activity since its establishment and up to the Latest Practicable Date. Our PRC Legal Advisors have advised us that the Radio and Television Production and Operation Permit is only required when Beijing LiTian begins to have actual business operations. Therefore, as advised by our PRC Legal Advisors, during the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date, we have obtained all licenses, permits, approvals and certificates that are material for our business operations in the PRC, and such licenses, permits, approvals and certificates are valid and subsisting.

Certain third-party co-investors of our self-produced drama series have obtained the TV Series Production License (Class A) (電視劇製作許可證(甲種)), which is valid for two years and is applicable to all TV series produced by the holder of such license during the period. Pursuant to the applicable laws and regulations in the PRC, drama series producers that have produced six or more single-episode TV shows, or three or more TV series with more than three episodes per series for two consecutive years are eligible to apply for the TV Series Production License (Class A) (電視劇製作許可證(甲種)). Please see “Regulatory Overview — Regulations on Radio and Television Programs — Regulations on Production and Operation of Radio and Television Program” for details. We do not satisfy the criteria for the application for the TV Series Production License (Class A) (電視劇製作許可證(甲種)) in China. If we choose to apply for the TV Series Production License (Class B) (電視劇製作許可證(乙種)), the license will be granted by the relevant government authorities on a drama series-by-drama series basis and valid for only 180 days, and the process of obtaining such approval is time-consuming and uncertain. In addition, the distribution license of a drama series is generally required to be applied by the production license holder of such drama series, according to the requirements of the relevant government authorities. To streamline the drama series production and distribution process, we work with certain third-party co-investors of seven of our self-produced drama series who have procured the relevant production and distribution licenses. These co-investors have issued

– 218 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS written letters to us confirming that the copyrights of such drama series either belonged to our Group entirely or partially (excluding the right of authorship, which may be jointly owned by our Group and the other co-investors). We have obtained compliance certification issued by the competent authority of the industry, confirming that we are in compliance with the applicable PRC laws, regulations and rules relating to radio and television, and that our Group had not been subject to any administrative penalties or investigations from any regulatory authorities in respect of such activities. As advised by the our PRC Legal Advisors, the fact that the licence holders of the seven self-produced series are third-party co-investors does not violate the relevant laws and regulations in the PRC.

With respect to the outright-purchased drama series, we obtained the rights to use or the rights to license the broadcasting rights of the outright-purchased drama series by entering into the content distribution agreements with third-party copyright owners/licensors. The copyright owners/licensors of these drama series have the full right, power and authority to enter into the content distribution agreements and the content distribution agreements were not made under the circumstances as set forth in Article 52 of the PRC Contract Law. As advised by the our PRC Legal Advisors, the content distribution agreements we entered into are valid and the fact that the licence holders of the outright-purchased drama series are not part of our Group does not violate the relevant laws and regulations in the PRC.

PROPERTIES

As of the Latest Practicable Date, we did not own any properties, but we leased eight properties in China, with an aggregate gross floor area of approximately 1,403.87 square meters. All of our leased properties in China are primarily used as offices.

For seven leased properties with an aggregate gross floor area of 1,371.53 square meters, our lessors (including both landlords and sub-lessors) have obtained the relevant building ownership certificates. As advised by our PRC Legal Advisors, the landlords or sub-lessors of these leased properties are the owners of, or authorized persons to lease or sublease, the respective properties and that the leases we entered into are valid.

For one leased property located in Xinjiang with a gross floor area of 32.34 square meters, the landlord has not obtained the relevant building ownership certificate. We use this property primarily as an office. Our PRC Legal Advisors have advised us that if the lease involving a property with defective title is deemed to be invalid or the lessee is not able to continue to use the leased property, the lessee may seek damages from the landlord in accordance with the Contract Law of the PRC and/or the terms of the lease agreement. Our Directors are of the view that, as this property was leased for office purposes, which can be easily replaced by an alternative property, if and when necessary, and because such property had relatively small leasehold area, our results of operations and financial condition would not be materially and adversely affected due to the defective title that our landlord held with respect to this property.

Furthermore, we did not register the relevant lease agreements with the local housing administration authorities for all of our leased properties as required by the Administrative Measures for Commodity Housing Leasing《商品房屋租賃管理辦法》 ( ). Our PRC Legal Advisors have advised us that we may be required by the relevant PRC authorities to register the relevant lease agreements within the prescribed period. If we fail to do so, we may be subject to fines ranging from RMB1,000 to RMB10,000 for each non-registered lease. Based on the number of our unregistered leases as of the Latest Practicable Date, we estimate that the maximum penalty we may be subject to would be approximately RMB80,000. However, as of the Latest Practicable Date, we have not been fined with the relevant PRC authorities with respect to the non-registered leases, and our PRC Legal Advisors have advised us that the non-registration of such lease agreement not affect their validity. The registration of the relevant lease agreements requires the cooperation of the relevant lessors, which is beyond our control. We endeavor to use reasonable efforts to communicate with the relevant lessors with a view to fulfilling the registration requirements. We will, to the extent practicable, request the relevant lessors to comply with the lease registration requirements. Our Directors are of the view that none of these leased properties for which the lease agreements have not yet been registered is material to our operations in the PRC as they were only used for office purposes and we would not have any difficulty in relocating to alternative premises if needed.

As of the Latest Practicable Date, the Beijing branch of LiTian TV & Film leased and occupied the property located in Building 5, No.85 Chaoyang Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing (“Building 5”) as the main operating office, while its registered office was Room 4A67, 4th Floor, Building 4, No.85 Chaoyang Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing (“Building 4”). Pursuant to the Regulations of the People’s Republic of China on Administration of Registration of Companies (《公司登記管理條例》) (the “Regulations of Registration”), the address of a company shall be the main office address and the only registration office of a company. Where the main office address is inconsistent with the registration office, a company shall file the application for change of registration office and submit a certificate of use for the new registration office before moving into the new registration office.

As of the Latest Practicable Date, we had not filed for the change of registration office of LiTian TV & Film. As advised by our PRC Legal Advisors, if a company fails to complete the registration procedures for a change of a company’s registration office, (i) the relevant authorities may order the company to make correction within a prescribed period; and (ii) a fine ranging from RMB10,000 to RMB100,000 may be imposed if the correction is not made within the prescribed period. We obtained a confirmation from the lessor on March 27, 2020 that (i) the relevant authorities had approved that those companies that leased offices in Building 5 may use the other available addresses in the same park as their registration offices, since Building 5 cannot be registered as the registration office due to its planned usage purpose; and (ii) the Beijing branch of LiTian TV & Film registered its office at Building 4 was mainly because Building 5 cannot be registered as the registration office.

Based on such confirmation and given that (i) the relevant authorities will stipulate a certain period when ordering us to complete the registration according to the Regulations of Registration; and (ii) we had not received any such request to complete the registration from the relevant authorities as of the Latest Practicable Date, our PRC Legal Advisors are of the view that the risk of us being fined or penalized by relevant authorities is low.

Properties Used by Us for Free

As of the Latest Practicable Date, we occupied two buildings, which were provided to us for free use.

These buildings were used by us for office purposes and the landlord of these two properties are Independent Third Parties. Based on the certification of free use we obtained from the landlord, our PRC Legal Advisors are of the view that the commitment made by the landlord to provide these two buildings to our Group for free use is valid. Our Directors are of the view that, as (i) these two properties are leased for office use, they can be easily replaced by alternative properties, if and when necessary; and (ii) these properties have relatively small leasehold areas, therefore, the results of operations and financial condition would not be materially and adversely affected.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND COMPLIANCE

During the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date, we had not been and were not a party to any material legal, arbitral or administrative proceedings, and we were not aware of any pending or threatened legal, arbitral or administrative proceedings against us or our Directors that could, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Save as disclosed above, we were not aware of any other material or systemic non-compliance incidents in respect of applicable laws and regulations during the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date. We have also engaged an independent internal control consultant to conduct a review of our internal control policies and rectification measures and to put forward recommendations and suggestions for improvement, where applicable.

Taking into account the internal control measures implemented by us in connection with the non-compliance incidents disclosed under the paragraph headed “Legal Proceedings and Compliance” in this section, the on-going monitoring and supervision by our Board and with the assistance from professional external advisors where required, and the fact that, as confirmed by the Directors, the non-compliance incidents did not involve fraud or dishonesty, our Directors are of the view that our enhanced internal control measures are adequate and effective; the suitability of our Directors is compliant with the Listing Rules 3.08 and 3.09; and our Company is suitable for [REDACTED] under the Listing Rule 8.04.

INTERNAL CONTROL AND RISK MANAGEMENT

Internal Control

In preparation for the [REDACTED], we have engaged an independent consulting firm (the “Internal Control Consultant”) in January 2019 to conduct an independent review over selected areas of our internal control (the “Internal Control Review”), including (i) entity-level controls, such as senior management training, anti-corruption, anti-bribery and anti-money laundering measures; and (ii) business process-level controls, such as project management of self-produced and outright-purchased drama series, distribution and trade receivables, financial reporting management, treasury management and taxation management. The Internal Control Consultant provided recommendations in relation to strengthening the internal controls over the aforesaid major business processes to our management for consideration. We have considered the recommendations and have implemented relevant control measures. The Internal Control Consultant performed follow-up reviews on our rectified controls in September 2019 to review the status of the remedial actions taken by us to address the findings of the Internal Control Review (“Follow-up Review”). The Internal Control Consultant did not have any further recommendation in the Follow-up Review and no material internal control weakness has been identified. The Director confirm that all of the major recommendations provided by the Internal Control Consultant have been followed and corrective actions were taken accordingly to address our internal control deficiencies and weaknesses. The Directors are of the view that our Group’s internal control measures adopted are adequate and sufficient. The Internal Control Review and the Follow-up Review were conducted based on the information provided by us and no assurance or opinion on internal controls was expressed by the Internal Control Consultant.

We have designated responsible personnel at our Company to monitor the ongoing compliance with the relevant PRC laws and regulations that govern our business operations and oversee the implementation of any necessary measures. In order to manage our external and internal risks and to ensure the smooth operation of our business, we have established and maintained comprehensive risk management and internal control systems consisting of policies, procedures and risk management methods that we consider as appropriate for our business. We are dedicated to continuously improving these systems. In addition, we plan to provide our Directors and senior management and other relevant employees with continuing training

THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS programs and/or updates regarding the relevant PRC laws and regulations regularly with a view to proactively identifying any concerns and issues relating to any potential non-compliance. Ms. Fu Jieyun, our executive Director and chief financial officer is responsible for ensuring our overall on-going compliance.

In addition, we have adopted a set of internal rules and policies governing the conduct of our employees. We have set up a monitoring system to implement anti-corruption, anti-bribery and anti-money laundering measures to ensure that our employees comply with our internal rules and policies as well as the applicable laws and regulations.

Anti-corruption and Anti-bribery Measures

In order to comply with applicable anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws and regulations of the PRC, we have formulated and implemented an anti-corruption and anti-bribery policy. Our major anti-corruption and anti-bribery measures include the following:

• we provide anti-fraud and ethics training to our employees and distribute our written anti-corruption and anti-bribery policy to all employees through employee handbooks and announcements;

• as part of our recruitment process, we conduct background checks on all of our employees, including criminal records, credit records, employment and financial history;

• we conduct risk identification and assessment of fraud at both the Company level and business department level, and implement specific internal control mechanisms to reduce the occurrence of fraud. For high-risk areas of fraud, such as financial fraud, abuse of company assets and management override, we have formulated guidelines, including drawing business flowcharts, explicitly dividing responsibilities and implementing stringent management policies, to reinforce internal control and prevent any potential misconduct or fraudulent activity;

• we have a whistle-blowing and complaint handling process, pursuant to which employees may notify our senior management of certain criminal activities, unfair practices and fraudulent financial activities, among other things, through written submissions or telephone calls. Our senior management will conduct investigations for any suspected cases of bribery, corruption or other related misconduct or fraudulent activities. In cases where misconduct is found, we may take appropriate disciplinary actions as appropriate, report to the relevant regulatory authorities and/or initiate legal actions to recover any losses suffered by us as a result of such misconduct; and

• we designate internal auditing personnel to manage the hotline and email to collect the complaints from employees or external personnel and take written records for each reported incident. Our internal auditing personnel is required to report the incident of bribery, corruption or other misconduct to our senior management or the Board on a timely basis, investigate the incidents and put forward compliance advice.

Anti-money Laundering Measures

In order to comply with the relevant PRC laws and regulations for the prevention of money laundering, we have formulated and implemented an anti-money laundering policy (the “AML Policy”). Major measures set out in the AML Policy to prevent and detect anti-money laundering activities include the following:

• we conduct due diligence to evaluate the identity, financial background, reputation and business operations of our customers. If we find any suspicious transactions and have reasonable grounds to suspect that our customers are engaged in money laundering activities, we may suspend or terminate our business relationships with such customers and report them to the relevant authorities for further action in accordance with applicable laws and regulations;

• we keep all records for the transactions for monitoring, including daily transaction records, receipts, copies of cheques, payment in books and other correspondence with customers;

• we provide our employees with regular anti-money laundering training, during which we introduce our Company’s anti-money laundering procedures to make them aware of the measures to identify and prevent money laundering activities and related reporting channels;

• we will report the suspected transaction to the relevant competent government authorities or investigating authorities where such report shall be made in compliance with the applicable anti-money laundering laws and regulations.

Our Directors confirm that, during the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date, we were in compliance with PRC laws and regulations relating to anti-money laundering, and had not been subject to any administrative penalties or investigations from any regulatory authorities in respect of such activities.

Key operational risks faced by us include, among other things, the administration of daily operations, drama series management, financial reporting and recording, fund management, compliance with applicable laws and regulations, changes in general market conditions and perceptions of drama series production, investment and distribution, changes in the regulatory environment in the PRC. Please refer to the section headed “Risk Factors” in this document for the disclosures on various risks we face.

During our course of business, we also make investment in drama series as non-executive producer. For this type of investment risk, each investment decision is made after considering various factors, such as risks involved, and will be approved by our investment committee. Our finance department is mainly responsible for monitoring our investment performance on a regular basis. Any material factors will be timely reported to the management for further discussion.

• we shall only invest in drama series that are produced by reputable executive producers and/or those with established relationships with us;

CONTROLLING SHAREHOLDERS

Immediately after completion of the Capitalization Issue and the [REDACTED] (assuming the [REDACTED] is not exercised and without taking into account any Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of options granted under the Share Option Scheme), the Controlling Shareholders, namely Mr. Yuan, Litian Century, Ms. Tian and Marshal Investment, will together control the exercise of voting rights of [REDACTED]% of the Shares eligible to vote in the general meeting of our Company.

Mr. Yuan is the chairman of our Board and an executive Director, and Ms. Tian is our executive Director and the chief executive officer of our Company. Please refer to the section headed “Director and Senior Management” for details of their biographies. Other than their positions in our Group and as of the Latest Practicable Date, Ms. Tian was also engaged by Beijing Perfect World Pictures Limited Liability Company* (“Perfect World”, 北京完美影視傳媒 有限責任公司) as a part-time consultant to provide consultancy services limited to the scope of the investment, production, promotion and distribution of film, which can be clearly delineated from our business of production and distribution of drama series. Therefore, Ms. Tian’s engagement by Perfect World as consultant does not and will not result in any conflict of interest, competition or potential competition with the business of our Group.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, none of our Controlling Shareholders nor our Directors had any interest in any other company or business that competes with or is likely to compete with our business, whether directly or indirectly, or would otherwise require disclosure under Rule 8.10 of the Listing Rules.

INDEPENDENCE FROM THE CONTROLLING SHAREHOLDERS

Having considered the matters described above and the following factors, we believe that we are capable of carrying on our business independently from our Controlling Shareholders and its/his respective associates after completion of the [REDACTED]:

Management Independence

Our Board comprises three executive Directors, three non-executive Directors and three independent non-executive Directors. Mr. Yuan, the chairman of the Board and an executive Director, is the sole director of Litian Century, a Controlling Shareholder. Ms. Tian, an executive Director and the chief executive officer of our Company, is the sole director of Marshal Investment, a Controlling Shareholder. Both Litian Century and Marshal Investment are investment holding vehicles with no actual business operation.

Save as disclosed above, no other Controlling Shareholder holds any directorship in our Company. Each of our Directors is aware of his or her fiduciary duties as a director of our Company which requires, among other things, that he or she acts for the benefit and in the best interests of our Company and does not allow any conflict between his or her duties as a Director and his or her personal interest. In the event that there is a potential conflict of interest arising out of any transaction to be entered into between our Group and our Directors or their respective associates, the interested Director(s) shall abstain from voting at the relevant Board meetings of our Company in respect of such transactions and shall not be counted in the quorum. In addition, we have an independent senior management team to carry out the business decisions of our Group independently.

CONTINUING CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS

We have entered into the Contractual Arrangements with our connected persons in our ordinary and usual course of business. Upon [REDACTED], the transactions disclosed in this section will constitute continuing connected transactions under the Listing Rules.

NON-EXEMPT CONTINUING CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS

(1) Contractual Arrangements

As disclosed in the paragraph headed “Contractual Arrangements — Background of the Contractual Arrangements” in this document, the PRC laws and regulations currently restrict our business of production and distribution of dramas series in PRC to foreign ownership. As a result, our Group, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, LiTian WFOE, our Consolidated Affiliated Entities and the Registered Shareholders have entered into the Contractual Arrangements such that we can conduct our business operations indirectly in the PRC through our Consolidated Affiliated Entities while complying with applicable PRC law and regulations. The Contractual Arrangements, as a whole, are designed to provide our Group with effective control over the financial and operational policies of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, to the extent permitted by PRC law and regulations, the right to acquire the equity interest in and/or the assets of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities after the [REDACTED] through LiTian WFOE. As we operate our business through our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, which are controlled by LiTian TV & Film and we do not hold any direct equity interest in our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, the Contractual Arrangements were entered into on October 14, 2019 pursuant to which all material business activities of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities are instructed and supervised by our Group, through LiTian WFOE, and the relevant economic benefits arising from such business of the our Consolidated Affiliated Entities are transferred to our Group.

The Contractual Arrangements consist of a series of agreements. See “Contractual Arrangements” in this document for details of the relevant agreements.

Listing Rules Implications

The table below sets forth the connected persons of our Company involved in the Contractual Arrangements and the nature of their connection with our Group. The transactions contemplated under the Contractual Arrangements, as a whole, constitute continuing connected transactions of our Company under the Listing Rules upon the [REDACTED].

Name Connected Relationships

Mr. Yuan a Director and a Controlling Shareholder of our Company and therefore a connected person of our Company under the Listing Rules

Ms. Tian a Director and a Controlling Shareholder of our Company and therefore a connected person of our Company under the Listing Rules

– 238 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. CONTINUING CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS

Our Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) are of the view that the Contractual Arrangements and the transactions contemplated thereunder are fundamental to our Group’s legal structure and business operations, that such transactions have been and shall be entered into in the ordinary and usual course of business of our Group, are on normal commercial terms and are fair and reasonable and in the interests of our Company and our Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, notwithstanding that the transactions contemplated under the Contractual Arrangements and any new transactions, contracts and agreements or renewal of existing agreements to be entered into between any of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities and any member of our Group technically constitute continuing connected transactions under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules, our Directors consider that, given that our Group is placed in a special situation in relation to the connected transactions rules under the Contractual Arrangements, it would be unduly burdensome and impracticable, and would add unnecessary administrative costs to our Company if such transactions are subject to strict compliance with the requirements set out under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules, including, among others, the announcement and independent shareholders’ approval requirements.

Application for Waiver

In view of the Contractual Arrangements, we have applied to the Stock Exchange for, and the Stock Exchange [has granted], a waiver from strict compliance with (i) the announcement, circular and independent shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules in respect of the transactions contemplated under the Contractual Arrangements pursuant to Rule 14A.105 of the Listing Rules, (ii) the requirement of setting an annual cap for the transactions under the Contractual Arrangements under Rule 14A.53 of the Listing Rules, and (iii) the requirement of limiting the term of the Contractual Arrangements to three years or less under Rule 14A.52 of the Listing Rules, for so long as our Shares are [REDACTED] on the Stock Exchange subject however to the following conditions:

(a) No change without independent non-executive Directors’ approval

No change to the Contractual Arrangements will be made without the approval of the independent non-executive Directors.

(b) No change without independent Shareholders’ approval

Save as described in paragraph (d) below, no change to the agreements governing the Contractual Arrangements will be made without the approval of our Company’s independent shareholders.

Once independent shareholders’ approval of any change has been obtained, no further announcement or approval of the independent shareholders will be required under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules unless and until further changes are proposed. The periodic reporting requirement regarding the Contractual Arrangements in the annual reports of our Company (as set out in paragraph (e) below) will however continue to be applicable.

(c) Economic benefits flexibility

The Contractual Arrangements shall continue to enable our Group to receive the economic benefits derived by our Consolidated Affiliated Entities through (i) our Group’s option, to the extent permitted under PRC laws and regulations, to acquire all or part of the equity held by the Registered Shareholders, as the case may be, at the lowest possible amount permissible under the applicable PRC laws and regulations, (ii) the business structure under which the net profit generated by our Consolidated Affiliated Entities is substantially retained by our Group, such that no annual cap shall be set on the amount of service fees payable to LiTian WFOE by our Consolidated Affiliated Entities under the Contractual Arrangements, and (iii) our Group’s right to control the management and operation of, as well as, in substance, all of the voting rights of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities as appointed by the Registered Shareholders in our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, as the case may be.

(d) Renewal and reproduction

On the basis that the Contractual Arrangements provide an acceptable framework for the relationship between our Company and its subsidiaries in which our Company has direct shareholding, on one hand, and our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, on the other hand, that framework may be renewed and/or reproduced upon the expiry of the existing arrangements or in relation to any existing or new wholly foreign owned enterprise or operating company engaging in the same business as that of our Group which our Group might wish to establish when justified by business expediency, without obtaining the approval of the Shareholders, on substantially the same terms and conditions as the existing Contractual Arrangements. The directors, chief executives or substantial shareholders of any existing or new wholly-foreign owned enterprise or operating company (including branch company) engaging in the same business as that of our Group which our Group may establish will, upon renewal and/or reproduction of the Contractual Arrangements, however be treated as connected persons of our Company and transactions between these connected persons and our Company other than those under similar Contractual Arrangements shall comply with Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. This condition is subject to relevant PRC laws, regulations and approvals.

(e) Ongoing reporting and approvals

Our Group will disclose details relating to the Contractual Arrangements on an ongoing basis as follows:

• The Contractual Arrangements in place during each financial period will be disclosed in our Company’s annual report in accordance with relevant provisions of the Listing Rules.

• Our independent non-executive Directors will review the Contractual Arrangements annually and confirm in our Company’s annual report for the relevant year that (i) the transactions carried out during such year have been entered into in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Contractual

Arrangements, have been operated so that the profit generated by our Consolidated Affiliated Entities has been substantially retained by our Group, (ii) no dividends or other distributions have been made by our Consolidated Affiliated Entities to the respective holders of equity which are not otherwise subsequently assigned or transferred to our Group, and (iii) the Contractual Arrangements and if any, any new contracts entered into, renewed or reproduced between our Group and our Consolidated Affiliated Entities during the relevant financial period under paragraph (d) above are fair and reasonable, or advantageous, so far as our Group is concerned and in the interests of our Shareholders as a whole.

• Our Company’s auditors will carry out procedures annually on the transactions carried out pursuant to the Contractual Arrangements and will provide a letter to our Directors with a copy to the Stock Exchange, confirming that the transactions have received the approval of our Directors, have been entered into in accordance with the relevant Contractual Arrangements and that no dividends or other distributions have been made by our Consolidated Affiliated Entities to the respective holders of equity which are not otherwise subsequently assigned or transferred to our Group.

• For the purpose of Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules, and in particular the definition of “connected person”, each of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities will be treated as our Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary. At the same time, the directors, chief executives or substantial shareholders of each of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities and their respective associates will be treated as connected persons of our Company, and transactions between these connected persons and our Group, other than those under the Contractual Arrangements, will be subject to the requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

• Each of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities will undertake that, for so long as our Shares are [REDACTED] on the Stock Exchange, each of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities will provide our Group’s management and our Company’s auditors’ full access to its relevant records for the purpose of our Company’s auditors’ review of the continuing connected transactions.

New Transactions amongst Our Consolidated Affiliated Entities and Our Company

Given that the financial results of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities will be consolidated into our financial results and the relationship between our Consolidated Affiliated Entities and our Company under the Contractual Arrangements, all agreements other than the Contractual Arrangements that may be entered into between each of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities and our Company in the future will also be exempted from the “continuing connected transactions” provisions of the Listing Rules.

With respect to the terms of the relevant agreements underlying the Contractual Arrangements which is of a duration longer than three years, it is a justifiable and normal business practice to ensure that (i) the financial and operational policies of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities can be effectively controlled by LiTian WFOE or its designee, (ii) LiTian WFOE or its designee can obtain the economic benefits derived from the Consolidated Affiliated Entities, and (iii) any possible leakages of assets and values of the Consolidated Affiliated Entities can be prevented, on an uninterrupted basis.

OVERVIEW

We are a leading drama series distribution company in the PRC in terms of the number of TV series first broadcast on satellite TV channels in the PRC in 2018, according to the Frost & Sullivan Report. Our business primarily consists of the following: (i) licensing of the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series, through which we invest solely or jointly with our co-investors, and undertake the production, marketing and distribution of the drama series in the PRC; and (ii) licensing of the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series, in which we, either as the exclusive distributor or one of the several distributors, obtain the right to use, and the right to transfer the broadcasting rights of, the drama series from the third-party copyright owners/licensors, and subsequently license such rights to various TV channels and online media platforms in the PRC. In addition to our two main businesses, we also sell script copyrights of drama series, act as a distribution agent of the broadcasting rights of TV series, and invest in drama series as a non-executive producer.

We experienced significant growth in our net profit during the Track Record Period. Our revenue increased from approximately RMB378.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately RMB385.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, and further to approximately RMB391.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. Our net profit was approximately RMB56.8 million, RMB67.6 million and RMB77.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively, representing a CAGR of approximately 16.5% from 2017 to 2019.

BASIS OF PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION OF HISTORICAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Pursuant to the Corporate Reorganization, as more fully explained in the section headed “History and Corporate Structure — Corporate Reorganization” in this document, our Company was incorporated in the Cayman Islands under the Companies Law as an exempted company with limited liability on June 17, 2019 and became the holding company of the companies now comprising our Group on October 14, 2019. The Corporate Reorganization only involved inserting of our Company, LiTian BVI, LiTian HK and LiTian WFOE, which were newly formed entities with no substantive operations, as holding companies of LiTian TV & Film and there was no change in the business and operation of LiTian TV & Film during the Track Record

– 266 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Period. The consolidated financial statements of our Group has been prepared and presented as a continuation of the consolidated financial statements of LiTian TV & Film and its subsidiaries with the assets and liabilities of LiTian TV & Film and its subsidiaries recognized and measured at their historical carrying amounts prior to the Corporate Reorganization. Intra-group balances, transactions and unrealised gains/losses on intra-group transactions are eliminated in full in preparing the consolidated financial statements of our Group.

The consolidated financial statements of our Group has been prepared in accordance with all applicable IFRSs which collective term includes all applicable individual IFRSs, International Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (the “IASB”).

The IASB has issued a number of new and revised IFRSs. For the purpose of preparing the consolidated financial statements, our Group has adopted all applicable new and revised IFRSs during the Track Record Period, except for any new standards or interpretations that are not yet effective for the accounting period beginning January 1, 2019. For further details, please refer to the Accountants’ Report in Appendix I to this document.

The financial information contained herein is presented in Renminbi, or RMB, which is the functional currency of our Group. The measurement basis used in the preparation of the financial information is the historical cost basis.

KEY FACTORS AFFECTING OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Our results of operations have been, and are expected to continue to be, affected by a number of factors, which primarily include the following:

Quality of the drama series we source and/or produce and project-based nature of our revenue model

During the Track Record Period, our revenue was mainly derived from licensing the broadcasting rights of the drama series to TV channels. Our revenue was mainly driven by the quality of the relevant drama series we distributed and the number of distribution platforms we utilized for such distribution in the PRC. Our ability to distribute high-quality drama series to our customers depends in part on our abilities to accurately identify the content preferences of distribution platforms and viewers, and source appropriate drama series from the third-party copyright owners/licensors. If we fail to identify and keep up with their evolving preferences, or the copyright owners/licensors of our drama series are no longer willing or able to license the relevant drama series to us based on the terms acceptable to us for any reason, our ability to offer high-quality drama series to our customers will be adversely affected.

Furthermore, we charge our customers a license fee for each drama series that they purchase the broadcasting rights thereof from us. Accordingly, there is no assurance that we will be able to continue to secure new customers or that our existing customers will continue to purchase the broadcasting rights of the drama series from us in the future. In the event our drama series could not satisfy the TV channels’ internal requirements, they will not purchase from us, and we will not be able to generate sufficient projected revenue. In the event this occurs, our results of operations and financial condition will be adversely affected.

– 267 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Government policies and market trends

The distribution of drama series is generally subject to the government regulations and policies that affect the drama series market in the PRC and the evolving market trends, which can be uncertain during the drama series production and distribution stages. In the event that the market trends and government policies change so that we are not able to distribute the drama series according to our business plan, we may be required to defer distribution, distribute drama series at a lower price than we anticipated, or distribute alternative drama series that may be more costly than the original drama series under our plan. This may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Ability to control our cost of sales and operating expenses

Our results of operations are primarily affected by the cost of purchasing the broadcasting rights of the drama series from third-party copyright owners/licensors and the cost of producing the drama series ourselves, which mainly comprise our cost of sales. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019 , our aggregate amount of cost of sales, which primarily consisted of the cost of purchasing the broadcasting rights of the drama series from third-party copyright owners/licensors and the cost of producing our drama series, amounted to approximately RMB302.8 million, RMB286.4 million and RMB249.9 million, respectively, representing approximately 79.9%, 74.2% and 63.9% of our total revenue, respectively. During the Track Record Period, we have implemented certain measures to control our cost of sales. For example, with respect to the business of licensing the broadcasting rights of our self-produced drama series, we possess sufficient management capabilities to systematically monitor, manage and coordinate the entire production process of the drama series. In order to ensure that our projects can be completed on a timely basis and within proposed budget, the staff from our project department regularly makes on-site visits to supervise the progress and maintain effective communication with the producers and filming crew. In addition, in order to avoid budget overruns, we also dispatch financial personnel to the production team to monitor the occurrences of project expenses and to assess whether the cost is in line with the progress of the production.

In addition, our results of operations are affected by our operating expenses, which mainly consist of our selling and marketing expenses and administrative expenses. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, our aggregate amount of selling and marketing expenses and administrative expenses were approximately RMB12.0 million, RMB23.8 million and RMB61.1 million, respectively, representing approximately 3.2%, 6.2%, and 15.6% of our total revenue, respectively. Our operating expenses may increase with the expansion of our business or due to other factors. Our ability to effectively control our cost of sales and operating expenses will be pivotal in maintaining our profitability.

Capital sources and funding sufficiency

The drama series production and distribution business is capital-intensive in nature. Our cost of sales relating to drama series production and distribution primarily includes the purchase costs of the broadcasting rights of the drama series, the service fees of artists, scripts, production crew, and other miscellaneous materials and services required in the process of filming and post-production. Many of these costs need to be paid upfront to our suppliers before we receive any sales proceeds from our customers. Therefore, sufficient funding in a timely manner is crucial for our daily operations. During the Track Record Period, we mainly satisfied our working capital requirements from cash generated from our operations, bank and other borrowings and loans from our related parties. If we are unable to procure sufficient funding for our operations in the future, our production and distribution plans will be interrupted and our results of operations and financial condition will be adversely affected.

Relatively long trade receivable turnover days in the industry

We generate revenue primarily from licensing the broadcasting rights of drama series to TV channels. According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, the ability to pay for the licensing fee of the broadcasting rights of drama series by the TV channels and online media platforms primarily depends on the timely collection of their accounts receivables relating to advertising revenue and the complexity and timing of the internal approval procedures since many of such TV channels are state-owned enterprises. In some cases, the date of payment by the TV channels and online media platforms to drama series distribution companies may be later than the pre-agreed contract date, which may subsequently affect the time of the payment of drama series distribution companies to their suppliers. Therefore, it generally takes us a long time to collect the trade receivables from our customers, which could negatively affect our working capital status. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, average trade receivable turnover days were approximately 120.1 days, 276.8 days and 447.3 days, respectively. If we are not able to collect the trade and bills receivables on a timely basis, our results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

Inability to continue to enjoy preferential tax treatment by our Consolidated Affiliated Entities will adversely affect our financial condition

During the Track Record Period, certain of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, namely, Xinjiang LiTian, Horgos Tiantian Meimei, Horgos Haohao Xuexi and Tiantian Xiangshang, enjoyed preferential tax treatment, including tax exemptions and tax refund. There is no assurance that we are able to continue to enjoy tax exemption and tax refund in the future due to changes in the tax policies to be adopted by the PRC government authorities. If there is any change in, or withdrawal of, any preferential tax treatment applicable to us, or an increase in the effective tax rate, our tax expenses will increase accordingly. Any occurrence of these changes will adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

We have identified certain accounting policies that we believe are most critical to the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. Set forth below are discussions of the accounting policies applied in preparing our financial information that we believe are most dependent on the application of these estimates and judgments and, in addition, certain other accounting policies that we believe are material to an understanding of our financial information. Some of our critical accounting policies involve subjective assumptions and estimates, as well as complex judgments by our management relating to accounting items, which affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.

The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our actual results of operations may differ from these estimates. Our critical accounting policies, estimates, assumptions and judgments, which are important for understanding our financial condition and operation results, are set forth in detail in notes 2 and 3 to the Accountants’ Report included in Appendix I to this document.

Revenue Recognition

Our Group classifies income as revenue when it arises from the sale of goods or the provision of services in the ordinary course of our Group’s business.

Revenue is recognized when control over a product or service is transferred to the customer, at the amount of promised consideration to which our Group is expected to be entitled, excluding those amounts collected on behalf of third parties. Revenue excludes value-added tax or other sales taxes and is after deduction of any trade discounts.

Revenue from Licensing the Broadcasting Rights of Drama Series

Revenue from licensing the broadcasting right of drama series to customers is recognized when the drama series materials are made available to the customer.

Sale of Script Copyrights

Revenue from the sale of script copyrights is recognized when the title and copy of the script copyrights are transferred to the customer.

Revenue from the Provision of Distribution Agency Services

Revenue from the provision distribution agency services is recognized when the service is rendered.

– 270 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Revenue from Licensing of the Broadcasting Rights under Co-financing Arrangement

Revenue from licensing of the broadcasting rights under co-financing arrangement relates to our investments in drama series as a non-executive producer. Revenue under such arrangement is recognized when the drama series materials are made available to the customer of the executive producer.

Interest Income

Interest income is recognised as it accrues using the effective interest method. For financial assets measured at amortised cost that are not credit-impaired, the effective interest rate is applied to the gross carrying amount of the asset. For credit-impaired financial assets, the effective interest rate is applied to the amortized cost (i.e., gross carrying amount net of loss allowance) of the asset.

Government Grants

Government grants are recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position initially when there is reasonable assurance that they will be received and that our Group will comply with the conditions attaching to them. Grants that compensate our Group for expenses incurred are recognized as other income in profit or loss on a systematic basis in the same periods in which the expenses are incurred. Grants that compensate our Group for the cost of an asset are recognized as deferred income and subsequently recognized in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the useful life of the asset.

Drama Series Copyrights

Drama series copyrights comprise (i) the distribution rights and copyrights of the drama series; and (ii) script copyrights, either acquired or produced by our Group. They are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses. Costs of drama series copyrights generally comprise consideration payable upon acquisition of drama series and/or costs/expenses incurred during the production of drama series. Script copyrights are stated at cost less impairment losses.

The amortization of drama series copyrights is determined using the drama series forecast computation method. Under this method, the amount of amortization is determined based on the proportion of the revenue recognized in the Track Record Period for each individual drama series to the estimated total revenue expected to be recognized throughout its life cycle of the drama series.

Our management reviews the estimated total revenue throughout the life cycle of the drama series regularly in order to determine the amount of amortization expenses to be recorded during any year. The determination of the estimated total revenue is based on historical experience with similar drama series. The amortization expenses for future periods are adjusted if there are significant changes from previous estimates.

– 271 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

If circumstances indicated that the carrying amount of a drama series copyright may not be recoverable, the drama series copyright may be considered “impaired”, and an impairment loss may be recognised in accordance with accounting policy for impairment of drama series copyrights as described in note 2(f) to the Accountant’s Report included in Appendix I to this document. Drama series copyrights are tested for impairment periodically or whenever the events or changes in circumstances indicate that their recorded carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When such a decline has occurred, the carrying amount is reduced to recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of the fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In determining the value in use, expected future cash flows generated by the drama series copyright are discounted to their present value, which requires significant judgement relating to the level of revenue to be generated over the life cycle of the drama series copyright. Our Group uses all readily available information in determining an amount that is a reasonable approximation of the recoverable amount, including estimates based on reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections of the level of revenue to be generated over the life cycle of the drama series copyright. Changes in these estimates could have a significant impact on the recoverable amount of drama series copyrights and could result in additional impairment charge or reversal of impairment in future periods.

Income Tax

Our income tax for the year comprises current tax and movements in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Current tax and movements in deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that they relate to items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the relevant amounts of tax are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities arise from deductible and taxable temporary differences respectively, being the differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets also arise from unused tax losses and unused tax credits.

Expected Credit Loss for Financial Assets

Our Group recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses (“ECLs”) on the financial assets measured at amortized cost, including cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables.

ECLs are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all expected cash shortfalls (i.e. the difference between the cash flows due to our Group in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that our Group expects to receive).

The expected cash shortfalls of fixed-rate financial assets, trade and other receivables and contract assets are discounted using the effective interest rate determined at initial recognition or an approximation thereof where the effect of discounting is material.

– 272 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which our Group is exposed to credit risk.

In measuring ECLs, the Company and its subsidiaries take into account reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort. This includes information about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.

ECLs are measured on either of the following bases:

• 12-month ECLs, which are losses that are expected to result from possible default events within the 12 months after the reporting date; and

• lifetime ECLs, which are losses that are expected to result from all possible default events over the expected lives of the items to which the ECL model applies.

Loss allowances for trade receivables are always measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs. ECLs on these financial assets are estimated using a provision matrix based on our Group’s historical credit loss experience, adjusted for factors that are specific to the debtors and an assessment of both the current and forecast general economic conditions at the reporting date.

For all other financial instruments, our Group recognizes a loss allowance equal to 12-month ECLs unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk of the financial instrument since initial recognition, in which case the loss allowance is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs.

Adoption of IFRS 9

Our historical financial information has been prepared based on our underlying financial statements, in which IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” (“IFRS 9”) has been adopted and applied consistently since the beginning of, and throughout, the Track Record Period. We have adopted IFRS 9 instead of IAS 39 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” (“IAS 39”) in the preparation of our underlying financial statements, such that our historical financial information prepared under IFRS 9 is comparable on a period-to-period basis.

We have assessed the effects of application of IFRS 9 on our financial position and performance. IFRS 9 requires the recognition of impairment provisions of financial assets measured at amortized cost based on expected credit losses. We assessed that the adoption of the impairment methodology under IFRS 9 would not result in a significant difference in bad debt provision as compared with IAS 39. The financial assets held by our Group include only financial instruments measured at amortized cost which meet the condition for classification as financial assets at amortized cost under IFRS 9. Accordingly, our Group does not expect the new guidance to affect the classification and measurement of these financial assets.

Adoption of IFRS 15

Our historical financial information has been prepared based on our underlying financial statements, in which IFRS 15 “Revenue from contracts with customers” (“IFRS 15”) has been adopted and applied consistently since the beginning of, and throughout, the Track Record Period. We have assessed the effects of application of IFRS 15 on our financial position and performance. Our Directors consider that adoption of IFRS 15 would not have a significant impact on our Group’s financial position and performance compared to the requirements of IAS 18 “Revenue” for the Track Record Period.

Adoption of IFRS 16

IFRS 16 “Leases” (“IFRS 16”) is mandatorily effective for the annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. Our Group decided to apply IFRS 16 in our underlying historical financial statements since the beginning of, and throughout, the Track Record Period. IFRS 16 superseded IAS 17 “Leases” (“IAS 17”) and the related interpretations.

Under IFRS 16, leases of a lessee are recognized as right-of-use assets and the corresponding liabilities at the date on which the respective leased asset is available for use by the lessee. Our Directors consider that the adoption of IFRS 16 does not have any significant impact on our Group’s financial position, financial performance and key financial ratios.

Non-IFRS Measure

In order to supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are presented in accordance with IFRS, we also use adjusted profit and total comprehensive income attributable to equity shareholders of our Company for the year as an additional financial measure. We present this financial measure because it is used by our management to evaluate our financial performance by eliminating the impact of certain one-off or non-recurring items that we do not consider to be indicative of the performance of our business during the Track Record Period. We also believe that this non-IFRS measure provides additional information to investors and others in their understanding and evaluating our results of operations in the same manner as they help our management and in comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of our peer companies. However, this non-IFRS measure does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore, it may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies listed on the Stock Exchange.

Licensing of the Broadcasting Rights of Self-Produced Drama Series

Under this business, we either (i) act as the sole investor in such drama series, in which case we contribute all of the funding and are in charge of the entire production and distribution process. Accordingly, we enjoy all of the copyright benefits of such drama series and bear all investment risks; or (ii) we cooperate with other investors in a co-financing arrangement, in which case we act as the executive producer of the drama series. For details of the business model, please refer to the section headed “Business — Our Business Revenue Model — Licensing of the Broadcasting Rights of Self-produced Drama Services” in this document. Revenue generated by our licensing of the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series amounted to approximately RMB13.7 million, RMB7.0 million and RMB89.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively, representing approximately 3.6%, 1.8% and 22.8%, respectively, of our total revenue for the same years.

(2) Other third-party customers primarily represent online media platforms and other third-party drama series distribution companies in the PRC.

(3) Represents the total number of drama series distributed, irrespective of the distribution platforms on which they are broadcast. A particular drama series can be broadcast on more than one distribution platforms.

Under this business segment, revenue generated from our customers that are TV channels accounted for approximately 99.6%, 96.6% and 94.0% of our revenue generated from licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively, while the remainder of this segment revenue was attributable to other third party customers.

Among revenue generated from licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series, approximately nil, nil and 62.0% was generated from first-run broadcast on satellite TV channels for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. For the same periods, approximately nil, 49.3% and 30.3%, respectively, was generated from rerun broadcast on satellite TV channels, and approximately 99.6%, 47.3% and 1.7%, respectively, was generated from broadcast on terrestrial TV channels. The remainder was generated from licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series to other third-party customers. According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, because satellite TV channels are able to reach more viewers without any geographic restriction and are capable of achieving meaningful scale and obtain pertinent market feedback from the viewers, such as viewing hotspots and behavior and audiences’ preferences, more quickly than terrestrial TV channels, the price per episode of drama series broadcast on satellite TV channels is generally higher than that of the drama series broadcast on terrestrial TV channels. Additionally, the price per episode of drama series that have first-run broadcast on satellite TV channels is also higher compared to that of drama series that have rerun broadcast on satellite TV channels.

Therefore, revenue generated from licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series for the year ended December 31, 2019 was substantially higher than that for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2018, primarily because (i) our self-produced drama series, “The Brothers” (義海), was licensed and had first-run broadcast on three satellite TV channels in 2019; (ii) our self-produced drama series, “Glory of the Blood” (鐵血榮耀), was licensed and had first-run broadcast on a satellite TV channel in 2019; and (iii) our self-produced drama series, “A Gallant Army” (老虎隊), was licensed and had first-run broadcast on a state-owned TV channel and second-run broadcast on three satellite TV channels during that year, while for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2018, our self-produced drama series were licensed and primarily had rerun broadcast on satellite TV channels and terrestrial TV channels.

Licensing of the Broadcasting Rights of Outright-purchased Drama Series

In addition to licensing the broadcasting rights of our self-produced drama series, we are engaged in licensing the broadcasting rights of drama series that we purchased from third-party copyright owners/licensors. Under this business, we either purchase the entire copyrights of the drama series (in which case, we will be able to license the broadcasting rights to our customers in any region in the PRC for any period of time at our discretion), or we only purchase the rights to use, or the rights to transfer the broadcasting rights of, the drama series in certain designated regions of the PRC for a specific period of time. We generally enter into the content, distribution agreements with the copyright owners/licensors to obtain copyrights or the rights to use, or the rights to license the broadcasting rights of, the particular TV series, as the case may be. Subsequently, we distribute the relevant drama series to our customers. Our revenue generated by licensing of the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series is typically recognized at the point in time when the drama series has been made available for our customers to use and there is no requirement for significant continued performance by our Group. Our customers are generally required to settle our invoices within 60 days to one year after receipt. Revenue generated by our licensing of the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased TV series amounted to approximately RMB345.4 million, RMB375.7 million and RMB278.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively, representing approximately 91.2%, 97.4% and 71.3%, respectively, of our total revenue for the same years.

(3) Represents the total number of drama series distributed, irrespective of the distribution platforms on which they are broadcast. A particular drama series can be broadcast on more than one distribution platforms.

Under this business segment, revenue generated from our customers that are TV channels accounted for approximately 92.5%, 90.2% and 89.9% of our revenue generated from licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively, while the remainder of our segment revenue was attributable to other third-party customers.

In addition, for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019 among revenue generated from licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series, approximately 39.4%, 29.6% and 60.7% was generated from first-run broadcast on satellite TV channels. For the same periods, approximately 52.1%, 60.3% and 28.8% was generated from rerun broadcast on satellite TV channels, respectively, and the remainder was attributable to terrestrial TV channels and other third-party customers.

Revenue generated from the licensing of the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series increased from 2017 to 2018 primarily because we licensed 39 outright-purchased drama series to our customers in 2018, compared with 29 in 2017, leading to a segment revenue growth of approximately 8.8% for the year. Revenue generated from the licensing of the

– 279 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series decreased from 2018 to 2019 mainly because we strategically focused on expanding on our business of licensing the broadcasting rights of our self-produced drama series in 2019, resulting in a decrease in revenue generated from the licensing of the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series during that year.

Sales of Script Copyrights

During the Track Record Period, we purchased certain script copyrights of potential drama series to be made and sold some of these scripts and/or IPs to third-party drama series production companies. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, the revenue from the sales of the script copyrights amounted to approximately RMB19.7 million, nil and nil, accounting for approximately 5.2%, nil and nil of our total revenue, respectively, for the same periods.

Acting as a Distribution Agent of the Drama Series

Beginning in the first half of 2019, we acted as a distribution agent for the copyright owner/licensor of the drama series, through which we promoted the relevant TV series to the TV channels and negotiated the terms and conditions in connection with the licensing of the broadcasting rights of such TV series with the TV channels on behalf of the TV series copyright owners/licensors. We generally charge the relevant copyright owner/licensor of the TV series a distribution agent fee, which is calculated based on a fixed percentage (typically 15.0%) of the license fee to be received by the copyright owner/licensor from the TV channels. We settle distribution agent fee after the copyright owner of the drama series has received the relevant license fee from the TV channels. For the year ended December 31, 2019, the revenue from this business was approximately RMB9.5 million, which accounted for approximately 2.4% of our total revenue for the year.

Income under Co-financing Arrangement

Our income under co-financing arrangement relates to our investment in drama series as a non-executive producer. We usually generate investment income under co-financing arrangement by sharing the net license fee with the executive producer(s) of the drama series and other non-executive producer(s), if any, in accordance with the proportion of our investment. We typically receive payments of our investment income from the executive producers in installments on specific milestone dates. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, revenue derived from co-financing arrangement amounted to nil, approximately RMB3.1 million and RMB14.0 million, respectively, accounting for nil, approximately 0.8% and 3.5%, respectively, of our total revenue for the same years.

Cost of Sales

Our cost of sales primarily represents the cost we incurred in our operations. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, our cost of sales was approximately RMB302.8 million, RMB286.4 million and RMB249.9 million, respectively.

Our cost of sales primarily consists of (i) service fees for filming crew, including producers, directors, casts and other staff and professionals working in the filming crew; (ii) filming and production costs, which primarily represent various expenses we incur in the process of filming and production of the drama series, including, among others, expenses in connection with costumes, make-ups, vehicles, catering, accommodation, insurance and rental fees for filming sites and equipment; (iii) procurement costs for scripts, which mainly include costs for purchasing the copyrights of scripts and service fees for adapting the scripts for production; (iv) post-production costs, which primarily represent expenses in connection with editing, music production, dubbing, special effects and other expenses for the post-production of drama series; (v) costs in connection with purchasing the broadcasting rights of drama series from third-party copyright owners/licensors; (vi) costs under co-financing arrangements, which primarily represent the costs in connection with our investment in drama series as a non-executive producer; (vii) promotion and marketing expenses, which mainly represent the expenses we incurred for engaging third-party marketing service providers to promote our outright-purchased drama series; and (viii) capitalized interests, which mainly refer to the interest accrued to the Fixed Return Investment made by third-party co-investors that act as non-executive producers of our self-produced drama series.

For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, our cost of sales principally comprised of costs of purchasing the broadcasting rights of drama series and the promotion and marketing expenses for engaging third-party marketing service providers to promote and advertise our outright-purchased drama series, which in aggregate accounted for approximately 91.7%, 98.3% and 70.1% of our total cost of sales for the year, respectively.

No cost of sales is presented for our distribution agency services business as the revenue from the provision of such services was presented on a net basis.

Our management generally formulates a distribution plan for each self-produced drama series with the estimation of the total revenue to be generated by such drama series during its life cycle (the “Total Estimated Revenue”).

We start to formulate a draft distribution plan during the preparation stage by actively communicating with potential customers, such as TV channels, and obtain their feedback on the content of our proposed drama series. During the filming stage, we invite potential customers to evaluate the quality of the drama series and modify the draft distribution plan accordingly. At the post production stage, we promote the clips of such drama series to potential customers and make further communication with the TV channels who express their intention to purchase the broadcasting rights of the relevant drama series. Before obtaining the distribution license, we adopt the distribution plan based on these communication results.

With the consideration of the general market conditions of the drama series as well as our past distribution experience, we usually estimate a drama series to have approximately three years of broadcasting life cycle, beginning from the time the TV Series Distribution License is obtained. We estimate the number of successive runs of a drama series based on the following factors: (i) the genres and characteristics of the drama series; (ii) the demands and content preferences among various TV channels; (iii) the preliminary agreed distribution schedules with the TV channels; and (iv) the historical distribution structure of similar drama series that are sold to different broadcasting platforms.

– 282 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

With respect to the Total Estimated Revenue, we estimate the sales prices of the drama series based on the historical prices, together with the consideration of the potential distribution platforms and the broadcasting rounds. In making such price estimates, the key factors we consider include: (i) total investment of each drama series; (ii) the historical financial performance of similar drama series; (iii) the historical prices and proportion of revenue that are usually generated from satellite TV channels, terrestrial TV channels and online media platforms; (iv) the sales contracts entered into between our Group and its customers; and (v) the sales contracts under active negotiation between our Group and its potential customers and the probability that such contracts will ultimately be signed.

We subsequently compare the actual distribution results with the adopted distribution plan semi-annually, identify whether there is any event that may affect the execution of the distribution plan, and adjust the distribution plan accordingly. At the end of each year in the Track Record Period, we assess if there are significant changes in the assumptions that require a revision of the Total Estimated Revenue based on the latest available information. During the Track Record Period, we did not record any material change in the Total Estimated Revenue.

On the other hand, the cost of drama series is initially accrued to drama series copyrights at the amount of the total cost of production, purchase or investment. The cost of sales is recognized based on the proportion of a drama series’ revenue recognized for the relevant financial year to the Total Estimated Revenue (the “Proportion of Revenue”). The calculation of our cost of sales for a particular year is equal to the Proportion of Revenue multiplied by the total cost accrued to drama series copyrights.

The table below sets forth (i) the Total Estimated Revenue at the time of formulating the preliminary distribution plan and as of the end of the reporting year; and (ii) the total revenue recognized during the Track Record Period, for our self-produced drama series, which have generated revenue during the Track Record Period:

Notes:

(1) No preliminary distribution plan was formulated for the financial year and thus, no corresponding adjustment is made to such preliminary plan.

(2) “Double Guns” (雙槍) was originally scheduled to broadcast on satellite TV channels in 2019. However, beginning in the third quarter of 2019 and until early December 2019 (the “Mandatory Celebration Period”), the PRC government has requested that all levels of the media in the PRC, including drama series producers and distributors, shall participate in the nationwide celebration of the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China. Accordingly, the TV channels at all levels in the PRC were requested to broadcast similar-themed drama series and TV programs. Since “Double Guns” (雙槍) had not matched the content preferences of the relevant TV channels during the Mandatory Celebration Period, the broadcasting schedule of this drama series was postponed to 2020.

During the Track Record Period, the Total Estimated Revenue of “The Brothers” (義海) was adjusted downward by approximately RMB2.0 million, 4.0% as compared to its preliminary distribution plan. Other than this drama series, we did not make material adjustment to the Total Estimated Revenue of our self-produced drama series during the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date, which had and/or are expected to have a material impact on the financial performance of our Group.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements of our Group for each financial year after the [REDACTED], our management will continue to regularly review the basis of estimation of the Total Estimated Revenue of each licensed drama series during its life cycle based on the realized revenue and latest negotiation results with our potential customers at the end of each financial year. We will recognize the corresponding cost of sales in the financial statements by applying the Proportion of Revenue based on the adjusted Total Estimated Revenue.

For the avoidance of doubt, changes in Total Estimated Revenue will not cause retrospective adjustments of cost of sales recognized in previous financial years in preparation of regular financial reports after the [REDACTED].

With respect to our outright-purchased drama series, the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series that we licensed from the third-party copyright owners/licensors generally include (i) single-run broadcasting rights; and (ii) multiple-run broadcasting rights. Since most of the broadcasting rights of our outright-purchased drama series are licensed on a single-run basis, we generally do not need to formulate a detailed three-year distribution plan for each such drama series to estimate the Total Estimated Revenue as we do for our self-produced drama series. We usually license the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series based on the market conditions and the demands of our customers. For outright-purchased drama series that we had acquired the single-run broadcasting rights, the entire economic benefit of the broadcasting rights was consumed and the costs of purchasing the broadcasting rights of drama series were fully recognized in the cost of sales when the revenue was recognized. Once the single-run broadcasting rights of these outright-purchased drama series have been licensed under specified conditions, they cannot be licensed again.

During the Track Record Period, we had obtained the multiple-run broadcasting rights of 14 outright-purchased drama series, which did not designate any broadcasting platform. The license period for these outright-purchased drama series ranges from three to six years. We usually formulate a short-term distribution plan for these outright-purchased drama series with multiple-run broadcasting rights. The costs of purchasing the broadcasting rights of these outright-purchased drama series were accounted for as cost of sales by applying the Proportion

THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION of Revenue based on the Total Estimated Revenue set out in the respective distribution plan of these outright-purchased drama series.

As of the Last Practicable Date, except for “Hunting Actions” (獵金行動), for which we had acquired the multiple-run broadcasting rights from the third-party copyright owner/licensor, that we expected to generate revenue of approximately RMB49.5 million in 2020, the costs of purchasing the broadcasting rights of other outright-purchased drama series that had been distributed were fully accounted for during the Track Record Period. Therefore, we do not expect to generate revenue in the future from the other outright-purchased drama series which had already been distributed.

Our self-produced drama series and outright-purchased drama series have the same customer base and pricing terms. Please refer to the sections headed “Business — Pricing Policy” and “Business Our Customers” in this document for further details.

Sensitivity Analysis

The following sensitivity analysis is for illustrative purpose only, which indicates the potential impact on our profitability during the Track Record Period if the relevant variables increased or decreased to the extent illustrated. Since the costs of purchasing the broadcasting rights of drama series and promotion and marketing expenses accounted for the largest portion of our Group’s cost of sales during the Track Record Period, a sensitivity analysis on the fluctuations in the costs of purchasing the broadcasting rights of drama series and promotion and marketing expenses during the same period is set out below to illustrate the impact of hypothetical fluctuations on our profit before taxation for the Track Record Period, assuming all other variables remained constant. To illustrate the potential effect on our financial performance, the sensitivity analysis below shows the potential impact on our profit before taxation for the year/period with a 5% and 10% decrease or increase in the costs of purchasing the broadcasting rights of drama series and promotion and marketing expenses. While none of the hypothetical fluctuation ratios applied in the sensitivity analysis equals the historical fluctuations of the costs of purchasing the broadcasting rights of drama series and promotion and marketing expenses, we believe that the application of hypothetical fluctuations of 5% and 10% in the costs of purchasing the broadcasting rights of drama series and promotion and marketing expenses presents a meaningful analysis of the potential impact of changes in the costs of purchasing the broadcasting rights of drama series and promotion and marketing expenses on our profitability.

Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin

For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, our gross profit was approximately RMB76.0 million, RMB99.5 million and RMB141.1 million, respectively, while the respective gross profit margin was approximately 20.1%, 25.8% and 36.1%, respectively.

The table below sets forth the breakdown of our gross profit and gross profit margin by business segments for the years indicated:

Year Ended December 31,

Total ...... 75,985 20.1 99,505 25.8 141,134 36.1

Our gross profit margin of licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series was approximately 32.6%, 70.1% and 31.7%, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019. Our gross profit margin of licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series for the year ended December 31, 2018 was relatively higher than that for 2017 and 2019, primarily because “Guerrilla Heroes” (游擊英雄) had rerun broadcast in 2018, while the costs incurred in connection therewith had been fully accounted for in 2017.

Our gross profit margin of licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series increased from approximately 19.5% for the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately 25.1% for the year ended December 31, 2018, primarily because we incurred less promotion and marketing expenses relating to our outright-purchased drama series as we became more mature in this business, which enabled us to enjoy economies of scale, leading to an increase in our gross profit margin for this business segment in 2018. Our gross profit margin of licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series increased from approximately 25.1% for the year ended December 31, 2018 to approximately 37.1% for the year ended December 31, 2019, primarily due to (i) our optimized customer network; (ii) less promotion and marketing expenses we incurred in relation to our outright-purchased drama series in 2019 as we became more mature in this business, which enabled us to enjoy economies of scale; and (iii) our improved capabilities in selecting the content of drama series for distribution in connection with the business of licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series.

Other Income

Other income primarily includes (i) government grants received in the PRC; (ii) interest from cash at bank; and (iii) interest income from loans to third parties, which primarily represents the fixed investment returns we received from the drama series we invested in during the Track Record Period. The government grants primarily represent the relevant financial reward we received from the government authorities of Haining City, Zhejiang Province, pursuant to the relevant local policies. The amounts and timing of our government grants are determined solely at the discretion of the relevant government authorities, and there is no assurance that we will continue to receive these government grants in the future. We recognize government grants at their fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all attaching conditions will be complied with.

In accordance with paragraph 11 of IAS 32, an equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. During the Track Record Period, the Fixed Return Investments made by our Group and third-party investors were in substance, lending and borrowing arrangements. Under this arrangement, the investors lend a fixed amount of money (i.e. the principal) to the investees to produce drama series and receive a fixed amount of return based on the interest rates and the maturity period set out in the investment agreements. Generally, non-executive producers of the drama series have no discretion in establishing the prices of the drama series and have no control over the returns from the distributions of the drama series and therefore, these investments do not meet the definition of an equity instrument. The assets under the Fixed Return Investments are held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the assets give rise on specified dates to the cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. These investments are borrowing/lending in nature, since the investors are entitled to the payments of principal and interest, which are in cash, at the agreed interest rate and repayment dates. During the Track Record Period, we made Fixed Return Investments in three drama series as a non-executive producer. For further details, please see “Business — Our Business and Revenue Model — Other Businesses — Investment in Drama Series as Non-executive Producer” in this document.

According to the Provisions of the Supreme People’s Court on Several Issues concerning the Application of Law in the Trial of Private Lending Cases《關於審理民間借貸案件適用法律若 ( 干問題的規定》) (the “Interpretation No. 18, 2015”) promulgated by the Supreme People’s Court on June 23, 2015, lending contracts between non-financial institutions are valid if they are made for the purposes of supporting production or business operations, except under the circumstances as set forth in Article 52 of the Contract Law or Article 14 of the Interpretation No. 18, 2015. The PRC courts will support the claim for interest in respect of such loans as long as the annual interest rate does not exceed 24%, and loans with annual interest rate exceeding 36% shall be null and void. Moreover, in accordance with the Interpretation I of the Supreme People’s Court of Several Issues concerning the Application of the Contract Law of the People’s Republic of China《最高人民法院關於 ( 〈中華人民共和國合同法〉若干問題的解釋(一)》), when confirming the invalidity of a contract, the People’s Court shall determine based on the laws enacted by the NPC and SCNPC and the administrative regulations formulated by the State Council, rather than local regulations or administrative rules.

Based on our confirmation that (i) the relevant Fixed Return Investments were not made under the circumstances as set forth in Article 52 of the Contract Law or Article 14 of the Interpretation No. 18, 2015; (ii) the annual interest rate of the Fixed Return Investments was within the limit permitted by the applicable PRC laws and court interpretations; and (iii) the Fixed Return Investments were made based on particular commercial reasons, our PRC Legal Advisors are of the opinion that the lending and borrowing agreements involving the Fixed Return Investments are legally binding on the parties and shall be deemed valid.

Please refer to the section headed “Business Legal Proceedings and Compliance Systemic Non-compliance Incidents” in this document for detailed discussions in relation to the non-compliance of Fixed Return Investments.

Having considered the opinions from our PRC Legal Advisors, our Directors are of the view that the non-compliance of our Fixed Return Investments with the General Lending Provisions does not have any material or adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Finance Costs

Finance costs primarily consist of (i) interest on bank and other loans, which primarily includes interest on Fixed Return Investments, which is partially capitalized, and interest on other loans; and (ii) interest on lease liabilities. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, our finance costs were approximately RMB5.0 million, RMB10.1 million and RMB4.8 million, respectively.

Total ...... 5,012 10,122 4,769

Note:

(1) Interest expenses capitalized into drama series copyrights primarily represented the interest accrued on the Fixed Return Investment from the commencement of filming of the drama series to obtaining the TV Series Distribution License. The borrowing costs have been capitalized at a rate of 22.9%, 11.0% and 12.9% for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively.

According to IAS 23 “borrowing costs” (“IAS 23”), borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset, which necessarily takes a substantial period of time to be ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized as part of the cost of that asset. Other borrowing costs are expensed in the period that they incurred. The capitalization of borrowing costs, as part of the cost of a qualifying asset, commences when expenditure for the asset incurred, borrowing costs being incurred and activities that are necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are in progress. Capitalization of borrowing costs suspends or ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are interrupted or complete.

The filming of drama series, adjustment and modification of the content for drama series in the process of distribution are necessary activities to prepare the drama series for its intended use or sale. Interest expenses accrued on the Fixed Return Investment, which cover the period from the commencement of filming of the drama series to obtaining the TV Series Distribution License are capitalized. The remaining interest expenses on the Fixed Return Investment, which fall out of this period are expensed. Therefore, the fluctuations of the interests on Fixed Return Investments have impact on the fluctuations of finance costs.

Income Tax

Income tax expenses represent the tax expenses arising from the assessable profit generated by our Group in the PRC. Our Company and subsidiaries are incorporated in different jurisdictions with different taxation requirements.

Our Company was incorporated in the Cayman Islands as an exempted company with limited liability under the Companies Law of the Cayman Islands and accordingly, is exempted from Cayman Islands income tax. Our Group entities established under the International Business Companies Acts of BVI are exempted from BVI income taxes. Pursuant to the PRC Income Tax Law and respective regulations, our Group operating are subject to EIT at a rate of 25% on the taxable income. No provision for Hong Kong Profits Tax was made as our Group had no assessable profit subject to Hong Kong Profits Tax during the Track Record Period.

In addition, according to the Notice on Preferential EIT Policies in Relation to Kashgar and Horgos as Two Special Economic Development Zones in Xinjiang《關於新疆喀什霍爾果斯兩個特 ( 殊經濟開發區企業所得稅優惠政策的通知》) promulgated by MOF and SAT on November 29, 2011, an enterprise established in Horgos between January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2020 and falling within the scope of the Catalog of EIT Incentives for Industries Particularly Encouraged in Underprivileged Areas of Xinjiang for Development《新疆困難地區重點鼓勵發展產業企業所得 ( 稅優惠目錄》) shall be exempted from the enterprise income tax entirely for five years beginning from the first year in which operational income is earned. According to the preferential filing record of EIT (企業所得稅優惠事項備案表) of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, (i) Horgos Tiantian Meimei, Horgos Haohao Xuexi, Tiantian Xiangshang obtained the approval from the relevant PRC tax bureaus for entitlement of EIT exemption from January 2017 to December 2020; and (ii) Xinjiang LiTian is entitled to EIT exemption from January 2018 to December 2020.

Our income tax comprises current and deferred tax. The table below sets forth the income tax expense for the years indicated:

Total ...... 5,301 2,237 2,335

Our income tax expense was approximately RMB5.3 million, RMB2.2 million and RMB2.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. Our effective income tax rate was approximately 8.5%, 3.2% and 2.9% for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. Our effective income tax rate was lower than the EIT rate since 2017, primarily due to the fact that three of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities were exempted from EIT from 2017 to 2020, and we generate most of our revenue through these Consolidated Affiliated Entities during the Track Record Period.

Our Directors confirm that, during the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date, we had paid all relevant taxes and there were no disputes or unsolved tax issues with the relevant tax authorities.

PERIOD TO PERIOD COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Year Ended December 31, 2019 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2018

Revenue

Our revenue increased by approximately 1.3% from approximately RMB385.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 to approximately RMB391.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. This increase was primarily due to (i) an increase of approximately RMB82.0 million in the revenue generated by our licensing of the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series as (a) we licensed the first-run broadcasting rights of “The Brothers” (義海) to three major satellite TV channels in the PRC; (b) we licensed the first-run broadcasting rights of “Glory of the Blood” (鐵血榮耀) to a satellite TV channel in the PRC; and (c) successfully distributed “A Gallant Army” (老虎隊), which had first-run broadcast on a state-owned TV channel and second-run broadcast on three satellite TV channels in 2019; (ii) an increase of approximately RMB10.9 million in revenue from the licensing of the broadcasting rights under co-financing arrangement, primarily reflecting the net license fees we received from “Dream on the Side of the Sea” (夢在海這邊), for which we acted as a non-executive producer; and (iii) we recorded revenue of approximately RMB9.5 million from our agency services as we commenced acting as a distribution agent of the broadcasting rights of TV series in 2019.

Cost of Sales

Our cost of sales decreased by approximately 12.7% from approximately RMB286.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 to approximately RMB249.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. The decrease was primarily attributable to (i) a decrease of approximately RMB69.2 million in promotion and marketing expenses; and (ii) a decrease of approximately RMB37.0 million in costs of purchasing the broadcasting rights of drama series, both of which were due to the fact that we strategically focused on expanding our business of licensing the broadcasting rights of our self-produced drama series in 2019, resulting in a decrease in cost of sales of licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series during that year, partially offset by an increase of approximately RMB58.6 million in the cost of sales of licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series.

Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin

Gross profit increased by approximately 41.8% from approximately RMB99.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 to approximately RMB141.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, and our gross profit margin increased from approximately 25.8% for the year ended December 31, 2018 to approximately 36.1% for the year ended December 31, 2019, primarily because (i) we successfully licensed the first-run broadcasting rights of our self-produced drama series, “A Gallant Army” (老虎隊), which had a relatively higher gross profit margin; and (ii) we improved our content selection and distribution capabilities of drama series and optimized our customer network in connection with our business of licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series. For details of the fluctuations of our gross profit margin of our various business segments during the Track Record Period, please refer to the paragraphs under “— Major Components of Our Results of Operations — Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin” in this section.

– 292 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Other Income

Other income decreased by approximately 5.1% from approximately RMB4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 to approximately RMB4.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. This decrease was mainly attributable to a decrease of approximately RMB1.6 million in interest income from loans to third parties as a result of the decrease in the fixed investment returns we received from third parties in connection with the drama series we invested in.

Selling and Marketing Expenses

Selling and marketing expenses decreased by approximately 28.9% for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to the year ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to a decrease in staff costs as a result of a decrease in the number of our distribution department staff.

Administrative Expenses

Administrative expenses significantly increased by approximately 162.4% from approximately RMB23.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 to RMB60.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. This increase was primarily due to (i) an increase in staff costs as we recruited more administrative staff; (ii) an increase in impairment loss due to the increase in trade receivables, which was in line with the growth of our business; and (iii) incurrence of the [REDACTED] of approximately RMB13.6 million during the year.

Finance Costs

Finance costs decreased by approximately 52.9% from approximately RMB10.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 to approximately RMB4.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of approximately RMB5.1 million in interest on bank and other loans as a result of the decrease in interest on borrowings from banks and other financial institutions as we paid off certain loans when they became due and borrowed less amount of loans in 2019 compared to 2018.

Profit before Taxation

As a result of the foregoing, our profit before taxation increased by approximately 13.6% from approximately RMB69.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 to approximately RMB79.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Income Tax

Income tax increased slightly by approximately 4.4% for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to the year ended December 31, 2018. The increase in income tax was primarily because the proportion of taxable income generated by LiTian TV & Film, which did not enjoyed EIT exemption, for the year ended December 31, 2019 was higher than that for the years ended December 31, 2018. Our effective tax rate was approximately 3.2% and 2.9% for the years ended December 31, 2018, and 2019, respectively, which remained relatively stable.

Profit for the Year

As a result of the foregoing, our profit for the year increased by approximately 13.9%, from approximately RMB67.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 to approximately RMB77.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. Our net profit margin increased from approximately 17.5% for the year ended December 31, 2018 to approximately 19.7% for the year ended December 31, 2019. Excluding the [REDACTED], our net profit would have been approximately RMB90.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Year Ended December 31, 2018 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2017

Revenue

Our revenue increased by approximately 1.9%, from approximately RMB378.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately RMB385.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. This increase was primarily due to (i) an increase of approximately RMB30.4 million in revenue generated from licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series as we distributed 39 such drama series in 2018 compared to 29 in 2017; and (ii) we recorded investment returns of approximately RMB3.1 million from a web series, “24 Hours” (限定 24小時), for which we acted as a non-executive producer under the co-financing arrangement, partially offset by (i) a decrease of approximately RMB19.7 million in sales of script copyrights as we did not undertake such business in 2018; and (ii) a decrease of approximately RMB6.7 million in revenue generated from licensing the broadcasting rights of our self-produced drama series as we licensed the first-run broadcasting rights of “Double Guns” (雙槍) and “The Brothers” (義海) to terrestrial TV channels in 2017 whereas they were only rebroadcast in 2018.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales decreased by approximately 5.4% from approximately RMB302.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately RMB286.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. Such decrease was primarily attributable to (i) a decrease in our promotion and marketing expenses by approximately RMB19.5 million as a result of an increase in the number of first-run broadcast of outright-purchased drama series during prime time on satellite TV channels in 2018, which had a wider coverage of viewers compared to terrestrial TV channels, resulting in lower promotion and marketing expenses required for such drama series; and (ii) a decrease in our procurement cost for scripts by approximately RMB16.6 million because we did not undertake the business of sales of script copyrights in 2018, partially offset by (i) an increase of approximately RMB23.1 million in the costs of purchasing the broadcasting rights of drama series in line with the expansion of our business in licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series; and (ii) an increase of approximately RMB2.8 million in costs under co-financing arrangements.

Gross profit increased by approximately 31.0% from approximately RMB76.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately RMB99.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 while our gross profit margin increased from approximately 20.1% for the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately 25.8% for the year ended December 31, 2018.

– 294 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Such increase in our gross profit and gross profit margin was mainly attributable to (i) the increased gross profit margin of the business of licensing the broadcasting rights of self-produced drama series because the costs incurred in connection with “Guerrilla Heroes” (游 擊英雄) that was broadcast in 2018 had been fully accounted for by the end of 2017; (ii) an increase in the revenue and gross profit of the business of licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series because of our improved selection and distribution capabilities in 2018 through the establishment of three of our subsidiaries dedicated to this business in 2017; and (iii) a decrease in promotion and marketing expenses in 2018 compared to 2017 as our business of licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series became more mature and enjoyed economies of scale, which enabled us to incur less promotion and marketing expenses.

Other Income

Other income increased by approximately 37.7% from approximately RMB3.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately RMB4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, primarily because the fixed investment returns we recorded in 2018 from the drama series we had invested in was higher than that in 2017, which were partially offset by a decrease in government grants due to a decrease in the financial reward we received in 2018.

Selling and Marketing Expenses

Selling and marketing expenses decreased by approximately 7.6% from approximately RMB827,000 for the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately RMB764,000 for the year ended December 31, 2018. This decrease was primarily due to the decrease in conference expenses we incurred for participating in the relevant television conferences and festivals.

Administrative Expenses

Administrative expenses recorded an increase by approximately 106.0% from approximately RMB11.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately RMB23.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. This increase was primarily due to (i) an increase of approximately RMB5.8 million in impairment loss as a result of the increase in trade receivables in line with the growth of our business, which had relatively higher expected credit loss rates; (ii) an increase in staff costs by approximately RMB2.0 million as a result of the increase in the number of our administrative staff; and (iii) an increase of approximately RMB1.4 million in entertainment expenses, primarily due to the expansion of our business.

Finance Costs

Finance costs recorded an increase by approximately 102.0% from approximately RMB5.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately RMB10.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. This increase was primarily due to an increase of approximately RMB6.6 million in interest on bank and other loans, which, in turn, was due to the increase in interest on the Fixed Return Investments as a result of the increase in the amount of third-party loans in the drama series in which we acted as the executive producer in 2018 in connection with the co-financing arrangements.

Profit before Taxation

As a result of the foregoing, our profit before taxation increased by approximately 12.5% from approximately RMB62.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately RMB69.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Income Tax

Income tax decreased by approximately 57.8% from approximately RMB5.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 to RMB2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. This decrease was primarily due to EIT exemption enjoyed by certain of our Consolidated Affiliated Entities. Our effective tax rate was approximately 8.5% for the year ended December 31, 2017, compared with approximately 3.2% for the year ended December 31, 2018. The decrease in effective tax rate was primarily due to the increase in the proportion of taxable income generated from our Consolidated Affiliated Entities, which enjoyed EIT exemption.

Profit for the Year

As a result of the foregoing, our profit for the year increased by approximately 19.1% from approximately RMB56.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately RMB67.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. Our net profit margin increased from approximately 15.0% for the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately 17.5% for the year ended December 31, 2018. Excluding the [REDACTED], our net profit would have been approximately RMB68.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2018.

RETAINED PROFITS/(LOSSES)

Our Group recorded accumulated losses prior to the Track Record Period and retained profits as of December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019 in our consolidated statements of changes in equity. The following table sets forth our accumulated losses/retained profits as of the dates indicated:

RMB’000 RMB’000 RMB’000 RMB’000

Retained profits/(losses) ...... (34,098) 22,662 90,268 167,302

We had accumulated losses prior to the Track Record Period primarily due to (i) a large amount of share-based compensation issued to certain members of our then-existing management in 2015, which was subsequently settled in July 2016; and (ii) an operating loss comprising our operating expenses incurred prior to the Track Record Period as we initiated our self-produced drama series business in the second half of 2014. We had accumulated losses of approximately RMB34.1 million as of January 1, 2017 primarily as a result of the net profit we generated in 2016. As we expanded the businesses of licensing the broadcasting rights of both self-produced and outright-purchased drama series during the Track Record Period, we had a net profit of approximately RMB56.8 million, RMB67.6 million and RMB77.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively, which resulted in our retained profits of approximately RMB22.7 million, RMB90.3 million and RMB167.3 million as of December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively.

Our net current assets increased from approximately RMB248.3 million as of December 31, 2018 to approximately RMB319.1 million as of December 31, 2019, mainly due to (i) an increase of approximately RMB154.7 million in trade and bills receivables, primarily because we recorded significant trade receivables for the distribution of our self-produced drama series; (ii) an increase of approximately RMB74.7 million in cash at bank and on hand; and (iii) a decrease of approximately RMB50.3 million in bank and other loans as we repaid certain bank loans in 2019, partially offset by (i) an increase of approximately RMB116.7 million in trade payables as we extended the payment schedules involving certain suppliers due to late payments from certain of our customers; (ii) an increase of approximately RMB78.1 million in other payables and accrued expenses due to an increase in payables to co-investors of drama series under co-financing arrangements, which was a result of our distribution of certain drama series we produced, including “The Brothers” (義海), “A Gallant Army” (老虎隊) and “Glory of the Blood” (鐵血榮耀); and (iii) a decrease of approximately RMB17.5 million in prepayments, deposits and other receivables primarily due to a decrease in loans to third-party executive producers as we received the fixed investment return from two drama series that we invested in, namely, “Mr. Nanny” (月嫂先生) and “Unexpected Life” (不期而遇的人生).

Our net current assets increased from approximately RMB165.9 million as of December 31, 2017 to approximately RMB248.3 million as of December 31, 2018, primarily due to (i) an increase of approximately RMB182.2 million in trade and bills receivables, primarily because we recognized revenue from licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series, certain of which were not yet settled by the end of 2018; and (ii) an increase of approximately RMB67.1 million in drama series copyrights, primarily because “A Gallant Army” (老虎隊) had obtained the relevant TV Series Distribution License during the year, partially offset by (i) an increase of approximately RMB85.2 million in trade payables as we extended our payment schedules involving certain suppliers due to late payments from certain of our customers; and (ii) an increase of RMB58.2 million in other payables and accrued expenses, primarily due to an increase in the amount received under co-financing arrangements from other co-investors of the drama series for which we acted as the executive producer.

Drama Series Copyrights

Our drama series copyrights mainly represent (i) the copyrights of our self-produced drama series that were under production or for which the production had been completed; (ii) the copyrights for outright-purchased drama series; (iii) co-financed drama series for which the production had been completed; and (iv) script copyrights. We had drama series copyrights of approximately RMB102.3 million, RMB169.4 million and RMB179.0 million as of December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. The table below sets forth the breakdown of our drama series copyrights by type of copyright as of the dates indicated:

Drama series copyrights turnover days(1) ...... 202.8 322.4 341.3

Note:

(1) Average drama series copyrights turnover days are calculated by dividing the average of beginning and ending drama series copyrights balances by drama series copyrights recognized in cost of sales for the relevant years multiplied by 365 days for 2017, 2018 and 2019.

Our drama series copyrights increased by approximately 65.6% from approximately RMB102.3 million as of December 31, 2017 to approximately RMB169.4 million as of December 31, 2018, primarily because we completed the production of and obtained the TV Series Distribution License for “A Gallant Army” (老虎隊). Our drama series copyrights increased by approximately 5.7% from approximately RMB169.4 million as of December 31, 2018 to approximately RMB179.0 million as of December 31, 2019, primarily due to (i) an increase in the number of co-financed drama series, mainly including “The God of Blaze ” (火神) and “Dream on the Side of the Sea” (愛在海這邊), the production of which were completed; and (ii) an increase in the copyrights of outright-purchased drama series, partially offset by a decrease in the number of completed self-produced drama series in 2019, primarily because we completed the productions of, and obtained the TV Series Distribution Licenses for, “Great Days with Green Mountains and Clear Waters” (綠水青山紅日子) and “Mom with Smile” (微笑媽媽) during that year.

– 299 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The turnover days of drama series copyrights for the year ended December 31, 2018 was approximately 322.4 days, compared to approximately 202.8 days for the year ended December 31, 2017. The increase was primarily because during 2018, (i) “A Gallant Army” (老虎隊) had completed production; and (ii) “Great Days with Green Mountains and Clear Waters” (綠水青山 紅日子) and “Mom with Smile” (微笑媽媽) were under production. These self-produced drama series were not broadcast on satellite TV channels in the year ended December 31, 2018, which resulted in an increase in the turnover days of drama series copyrights for that year. The turnover days of drama series copyrights were approximately 341.3 days for the year ended December 31, 2019, which remained relatively stable.

The investment amounts paid to executive producers on co-financed drama series that were under production were recognized as prepayments for drama series production. As soon as the production was completed, the amount of our investment was accounted for as drama series copyrights.

Drama series copyrights are tested annually based on the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit (the “CGU”) to which the drama series is related to. Each drama series copyright can generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other drama series copyright, their appropriate CGU is separated by each drama series. As of December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, we had 11, 15 and 19 drama series copyrights, respectively.

– 300 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The recoverable amount of each CGU is determined based upon value-in-use. The value-in-use was estimated using the discounted cash flow approach. The revenue forecasts of drama series copyrights equal to the price per episode multiplied by the number of episodes and further multiplied by the investment percentage. The discount rates used are pre-tax and reflect the time value of money and specific risks relating to the drama series copyrights.

The key parameters used for value-in-use calculations for the top five carrying amounts of drama series copyrights of each year in the Track Record Period are as follows:

Note:

(1) We procured the copyrights of “Hunting Actions” (獵金行動) in 2019 and began to record drama series copyrights with respect to this drama series since 2019.

The recoverable amount of the CGUs of all the drama series is estimated to exceed the carrying amount of the CGU as of December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019 by approximately RMB9.0 million, RMB45.3 million and RMB92.1 million, respectively.

Our Directors believe that any reasonably possible change in any of these assumptions would not cause the aggregate carrying amount of the CGUs exceed its respective recoverable amount.

The long-aged copyrights balances for over one year as of December 31, 2019 mainly because (i) four self-produced TV series, namely “Double Guns” (雙槍), “Glory of the Blood” (鐵 血榮耀), “Great Days with Green Mountains and Clear Waters” (綠水青山紅日子) and “Mom with Smile” (微笑媽媽); (ii) one web series, namely “Mr. Fox and Miss Rose” (酋長的男人); and (iii) a co-financed drama series, namely 24 Hours (限定24小時) had completed production and are expected to be distributed in 2020 and 2021.

Trade and Bills Receivables

Our trade and bills receivables primarily represent outstanding drama series license fees from our customers. During the Track Record Period, for the licensing of the broadcasting rights of our self-produced and outright-purchased drama series, the full payment cycle generally spans over a period of six months to two years. For other businesses, a credit term of 60 days is generally granted to our customers. However, the collection period of certain customers, particularly TV channels, may be significantly longer than the credit period stated in our agreements. According to the Frost & Sullivan Report, the long payment period is not uncommon in the industry where we operate. As of December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, we had trade and bills receivables of approximately RMB194.1 million, RMB376.2 million and RMB530.9 million, respectively. The table below sets forth the details of trade and bills receivables as of the dates indicated:

Note:

(1) Average trade and bills receivable turnover days are calculated by dividing the average of beginning and ending trade and bills receivable balances by revenue for the relevant periods and multiplied by 365 days for 2017, 2018 and 2019.

Our trade and bills receivables increased by approximately 93.9% from approximately RMB194.1 million as of December 31, 2017 to approximately RMB376.2 million as of December 31, 2018, primarily due to the longer collection periods for such balances as a result of a time-consuming settlement process involving prolonged internal administrative procedures of certain of our major customers. Our trade and bills receivables increased by approximately 41.1% from approximately RMB376.2 million as of December 31, 2018 to approximately RMB530.9 million as of December 31, 2019, primarily because we recorded significant trade receivables for the distribution of our self-produced drama series in line with the growth of this business in 2019 and the increase in trade and bills receivable turnover days.

As of December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, we made provision for impairment of trade receivables of approximately RMB2.2 million, RMB8.0 million and RMB28.2 million, respectively. Our Group measures loss allowances for trade receivables at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs, which is measured using a provision matrix. Expected loss rates are based on actual loss experience over the past several years and adjusted to reflect differences between economic conditions during the period over which the historic data has been collected, current conditions and our view of economic conditions over the expected lives of the receivables. For further details, please see note 22(a) to the Accountants’ Report in Appendix I to this document.

The turnover days of our trade and bills receivables increased during the Track Record Period, primarily because the payment terms varied among the agreements we entered into with our customers, which were generally negotiated on a case-by-case basis. For licensing the broadcasting rights of drama series, the total consideration of each agreement is settled in installments with reference to the point in time when the drama series materials are delivered and/or the commencement of the broadcasting of the drama series. Generally, the full payment cycle spans over a period of approximately six months to two years. With the expansion of our business, we granted some new customers a relatively longer payment cycle, which led to a slow-down in our collection of trade receivables.

In addition, our revenue is recognized at the amount of promised consideration to which we expect to be entitled, excluding those amounts collected on behalf of third-party co-investors, who made investments in our self-produced drama series. However, the amounts collected on behalf of these third-party co-investors were included in trade and bills receivables. If we add back the amounts collected on behalf of co-investors, our gross revenue would be approximately RMB386.0 million, RMB387.9 million and RMB480.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. If we consider removing the effect of this mismatch between revenue and trade and bills receivables, and recalculate the turnover days of trade and bills receivables, the turnover days of trade and bills receivables would be approximately 117.8 days, 275.3 days and 372.0 days for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively.

The amount of trade receivables collected by our Group on behalf of the third-party co-investors was approximately RMB3.0 million, RMB2.1 million and RMB64.2 million as of December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively.

Our trade and bills receivables had long aging periods are mainly attributable to TV channels, which are state-owned with low credit and default risks. The longer collection period for such balances, to our knowledge, was principally due to factors such as relative bargaining power and a generally long settlement process as a result of their lengthy internal administrative procedures.

As of the Latest Practicable Date, the subsequent settlement of our trade receivables as of December 31, 2019 was approximately RMB116.7 million, accounting for approximately 21.1% of our total trade receivables as of December 31, 2019.

The increase in impairment losses of trade receivables in 2019 was primarily due to the increase in past due days of the trade receivable balances as of December 31, 2019, which resulted in higher expected loss rates in our assessment of the loss allowance. For further details, please see note 22(a) of the Accountants’ Report of our Group in Appendix I to this document.

Our Directors do not believe there is any material recoverability issues for trade receivables aged over six months as of December 31, 2019 primarily because (i) most of our customers are state-owned entities or public institutions, which normally have a good credit with us; (ii) we usually check the balance of our trade receivables on a regular basis and will issue payment reminder notices to our customers to collect the trade receivables; and (iii) there are no obstacles that have come to our attention that may adversely affect the recovery of our trade receivables. Our Directors confirmed that there had not been any default in the payments by the stated-owned TV channels during the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date.

We recorded a relatively low subsequent settlement rate of trade and bills receivables primarily because most of our customers are TV channels, which are primarily state-owned institutions, and they usually have more bargaining power over the drama series distribution companies for a longer credit period.

Internal Control Measures on Trade Receivables

We have a set of internal policies and procedures in place to monitor our trade receivable balances and collect payments from our customers. According to our trade receivable management policy (應收賬款管理政策) under our financial control system (財務管理制度), our distribution department is primarily responsible for collecting payments from our customers. We generally designate the distribution manager who negotiated the relevant broadcasting rights transfer agreement with a customer as the first responsible party to monitor and recover payments from such customer, and our distribution director as the second responsible party to follow up on the status of payment collection (in the event the particular sales manager had left the post or had otherwise become unavailable). Once enter into the broadcasting rights transfer agreements, our distribution managers are usually tasked to closely monitor the customer accounts, maintain regularly contact with them and respond to their inquiries and requests on a timely basis in order to ensure we are able to collect outstanding payments. In addition, our finance department is responsible for managing our trade receivables and supervising their recovery. According to the applicable accounting standards, our finance department recognizes and records the trade receivables on a timely basis, keeps track of customer payments, conducts aging analysis of our trade receivables, and requests the responsible department and/or persons to take corresponding measures to reduce the impairment risk associated with past due trade receivables.

In order to improve our trade receivables and enhance our recovery efforts, we have adopted a distribution and payment collection management policy (發行與收款管理制度), pursuant to which our finance department will prepare a monthly report containing customer trade receivable recovery targets and provide such report to our distribution department for action. For the balances that are past due for more than six months, the distribution department is required to provide reasons for the past-due trade receivables and formulate an initial recovery plan. We will designate the trade receivable balance that is outstanding for more than

– 309 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION three years as impaired. Once an outstanding amount of trade receivables is deemed to be impaired, our legal department will issue payment reminder notice to the customer within 15 days of such designation, and at the same time, consider initiating lawsuits to recover the outstanding amounts due in the event the customer does not make prompt payments after receiving the notices. In addition, we will analyze our trade receivable balance every six months to monitor our collection efforts. Our Directors are of the view that with the implementation of these internal control measures, we are able to effectively monitor the balance and collection progress of our trade and bills receivables.

Prepayments, Deposits and Other Receivables

Our prepayments, deposits and other receivables primarily consist of (i) prepayments for drama series production, which primarily represents the production fees we prepaid to third-party service providers and the amounts we prepaid to co-investors who are executive producers; (ii) loans to third parties, which represent the Fixed Return Investment we paid to the third-party executive producers; (iii) VAT recoverable, primarily comprise input tax incurred when we purchased the broadcasting rights of drama series from their copyright owners/licensors and the relevant promotion and marketing services from third-party service providers, which had not yet issued invoices; (iv) prepayments for costs incurred in connection with the proposed [REDACTED], the balance of which will be charged to profit or loss or transferred to the share premium account within equity upon the [REDACTED]; and (v) others, which consist of prepaid script copyrights transfer fees and interest receivables relating to the investment returns from the drama series we invested in.

The following table sets forth the components of our prepayments, deposits and other receivables as of the dates indicated:

Note:

(1) The balance of loans to third parties bore interest at rates ranging from 10.0% to 20.0% per annum. These loans to third parties were “Fixed Return Investments” we made to third-party co-investors of drama series, which were, in substance, lending and borrowing arrangements between the investors and investees and accordingly, they were accounted for as financial assets (i.e. loans provided to third parties) or, in the case where third-party co-investors make “Fixed Return Investments” in us, as financial liabilities (i.e. other loans from third parties), as the case may be under IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” (“IFRS 9”). Please see “— Major Components of Our Results of Operations — Other Income” in this section for further details.

Our prepayments, deposits and other receivables increased by approximately 9.6% from approximately RMB48.5 million as of December 31, 2017 to RMB53.2 million as of December 31, 2018, primarily due to (i) an increase of RMB8.7 million in VAT recoverable as a result of an increase in input tax in connection with our procurement of the broadcasting rights of drama series and the relevant promotion and marketing services from third-party service providers, which have not issued invoices to us; and (ii) an increase of RMB5.0 million in loans to third parties due to our Fixed Return Investment in a drama series named “Unexpected Life” (不期而遇的 人生), partially offset by a decrease of RMB11.6 million in prepayment for drama series production, primarily because our investment in “24 Hours” (24小時) was accounted for as drama series copyrights as it completed filming.

Our prepayments, deposits and other receivables decreased by approximately 32.9% from approximately RMB53.2 million as of December 31, 2018 to approximately RMB35.7 million as of December 31, 2019, primarily due to (i) a decrease of approximately RMB20.0 million in loans to third parties, primarily reflecting the principals we received in connection with our Fixed Return Investment in “Mr. Nanny” (月嫂先生) and “Unexpected Life” (不期而遇的人生); and (ii) a decrease of approximately RMB2.8 million in prepayments for production of drama series as our investment in “The God of Blaze” (火神) was accounted for as drama series copyrights after obtaining the relevant TV Series Distribution License, partially offset by an increase of approximately RMB4.7 million in VAT recoverable as a result of an increase in input tax in connection with our procurement of the broadcasting rights of the drama series and the relevant promotion and marketing services from third-party service providers, which have not issued invoices to us.

Cash at Bank and on Hand

Our cash at bank and on hand consist of deposits we had in bank accounts and cash on hand. As of December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, our cash at bank and on hand amounted to approximately RMB23.1 million, RMB15.0 million and RMB89.7 million, respectively.

Trade Payables

Our trade payables primarily relate to (i) payables for the production and acquisition of drama series; and (ii) payables for acquisition of script copyrights. We had trade payables of approximately RMB93.1 million, RMB178.3 million and RMB295.0 million as of December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. The table below sets forth the details of trade payables as of the dates indicated:

Payables for production and acquisition of drama series ...... 93,111 178,267 294,975 Total ...... 93,111 178,267 294,975

Trade payable turnover days(1)...... 67.8 173.0 345.7

Note:

(1) Average trade payable turnover days are calculated by dividing the average of beginning and ending trade payable balances by cost of sales for the relevant period and multiplied by 365 days for 2017, 2018 and 2019.

Our trade payables increased by approximately 91.5% from approximately RMB93.1 million as of December 31, 2017 to approximately RMB178.3 million as of December 31, 2018, primarily due to an increase in payables for the production and acquisition of drama series, reflecting the increase in trade payables for outright-purchased drama series, which was in line with the growth of this business. Our trade payables increased from approximately RMB178.3 million as of December 31, 2018 to approximately RMB295.0 million as of December 31, 2019, mainly due to an increase in payables for the production and acquisition of drama series, as a result of an increase in trade payables for outright-purchased drama series as certain of major suppliers granted longer credit terms to us.

The turnover days of our trade payables increased during the Track Record Period primarily due to the slow-down in our collection of trade and bills receivables, which had prolonged the settlement period of our trade payables.

Time lags often exist between receiving payments from our customers and making payments to our suppliers. If our customers delay their payments, which could affect our timely settlement with the relevant suppliers, we will communicate with such suppliers in advance and postpone our payments under mutual consent. During the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date, our Directors confirmed that we had not been involved in or subject to any dispute with our suppliers due to any delayed payment.

Trade payables include (i) the amount of consideration payable upon acquisition of drama series and/or costs/expenses incurred during the production; and (ii) the amount payable to suppliers on behalf of co-investors of drama series under co-financing arrangements. However, the amount payable to suppliers on behalf of co-investors of drama series under co-financing arrangements is not included in cost of sales. If we consider to remove the effect of this mismatch between cost of sales and trade payables, and recalculate the turnover days of trade payables, the turnover days of trade payables will be approximately 66.8 days, 172.1 days and 292.3 days for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively.

Other Payables and Accrued Expenses

Our other payables and accrued expenses primarily consist of (i) amount due to co-investors, which represents investment return payables to other co-investors of the drama series for which we acted as the executive producer; (ii) interest payables; (iii) payables for staff-related costs; (iv) payables for other taxes; (v) payables for costs incurred in connection with the proposed [REDACTED]; and (vi) receipts in advance , which represent amounts relating to the advances received from the customers of our business of licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series. We recorded other payables and accrued expenses of approximately RMB13.9 million, RMB72.1 million and RMB150.2 million as of December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively.

Our other payables and accrued expenses increased by approximately 418.6% from approximately RMB13.9 million as of December 31, 2017 to approximately RMB72.1 million as of December 31, 2018, primarily due to (i) an increase of approximately RMB40.1 million in payables to co-producers of drama series under co-financing arrangements , mainly due to the increased proportional investment contributions from the co-investors of certain drama series we produced; and (ii) an increase of approximately RMB11.7 million in other taxes payables, primarily due to an increase in the number of drama series we distributed in 2018.

Our other payables and accrued expenses increased by approximately 114.2% from approximately RMB72.1 million as of December 31, 2018 to approximately RMB150.2 million as of December 31, 2019. The increase was primarily due to an increase of approximately RMB74.6 million in payables to co-investors of drama series under the co-financing arrangements, as a result of our distribution of certain drama series we produced, including “The Brothers” (義海), “A Gallant Army” (老虎隊) and “Glory of the Blood” (鐵血榮耀).

Current Taxation

Our current taxation increased from approximately RMB6.0 million as of December 31, 2017 to approximately RMB7.1 million as of December 31, 2018, and further increased to approximately RMB13.7 million as of December 31, 2019, primarily reflecting increases in our income tax expenses as a result of the increases in our taxable income for the relevant years and our underpayment of income tax for the tax assessment years of 2017 and 2018 amounted to approximately RMB3.0 million and RMB4.1 million as of December 31, 2018 and 2019, respectively.

The table below sets forth the movement of current taxation in the consolidated statement of financial position for the years indicated:

Year Ended December 31,

2017 2018 2019

RMB’000 RMB’000 RMB’000 Net balance of income tax payable as of January 1, ...... 6,574 6,034 7,139 Provision for the year...... 5,989 4,157 9,590 Income tax paid ...... (6,529) (3,052) (3,041)

Net balance of income tax payable as of December 31,...... 6,034 7,139 13,688

Our historical income tax was accrued in accordance with the relevant income tax regulations. Income generated from the licensing of the broadcasting rights of drama series is taxable and the relevant expenses are deductible when the revenue and cost of sales are recognized in accordance with the applicable accounting standards. The difference of approximately RMB4.1 million between our tax payable in 2018 and its subsequent settlement was mainly because in 2017, the broadcasting rights of a drama series purchased by Horgos Tiantian Meimei was paid by LiTian TV & Film on behalf of Horgos Tiantian Meimei. LiTian TV & Film was subject to an EIT rate of 25.0%, while Horgos Tiantian Meimei was exempted from EIT during the year. We inadvertently deducted the amount as costs in 2017 annual tax filing of LiTian TV & Film, resulting in the underpayment of income tax of approximately RMB3.3 million for the tax assessment year of 2018.

We recognized revenue, cost of sales and income tax of licensing the broadcasting rights of one of our outright-purchased drama series, “Flesh and Spirit” (靈與肉), which was released on November 13, 2018, during the year ended December 31, 2018. However, the profits generated from this drama series were not reported in our annual tax filing in 2018 as the original signed agreement with our customer was not passed to us until 2019 after closing the 2018 financial year, which resulted in the underpayment of approximately RMB2.2 million in income tax for the tax assessment year of 2018.

On the other hand, we reported revenue and cost of sales of “The Brothers” (義海), one of our self-produced drama series, which was released on February 25, 2019, in the annual tax filing of 2018 as we delivered the drama series materials to our customer in December 2018. The profits generated from the licensing of the broadcasting rights of this drama series were recognized and assessable for income tax in 2019 when the agreement was concluded and became effective in early 2019. This resulted in an advanced payment of income tax in the amount of approximately RMB0.3 million for the tax assessment year of 2018.

In addition, the deduction of accrued interest expenses on the Fixed Return Investments was omitted in our 2018 annual tax filing as the invoice of interest payment was not issued to us until its payment in 2019, which resulted in an advanced tax payment of approximately RMB0.7 million for the tax assessment year of 2018.

The difference between the tax payment of approximately RMB3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 and tax payables of approximately RMB7.1 million as of January 1, 2019 was identified by us after conducting the income tax calculation and review in May 2019 for the annual tax assessment for 2018. Under normal circumstances, such difference will be settled in the next annual tax assessment. We will settle the underpayment of tax when conducting the income tax calculation and review for the annual tax assessment for 2019 in May 2020.

We undertake that we will make retrospective adjustments on the additional tax payables and settle the underpayment of tax when we conduct the income tax calculation and review for the tax assessment of 2019 in May 2020. We have adopted a series of internal control measures to avoid reoccurrence of similar incident. Specifically, we require our financial personnel to conduct self-inspections of our accounts and tax payments on a regular basis to ensure that our tax payment is in accordance with the latest accounting policies and tax regulations. For any discrepancies identified, we will make adjustments and corrections in a timely manner.

WORKING CAPITAL

Our future working capital requirements will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, our operating income, the cost of purchasing drama series and TV script copyrights from third parties, the cost of hiring additional personnel and staff. We intend to continue to finance our working capital with cash generated from our operations, bank loans and other borrowings, the [REDACTED]fromthe[REDACTED] and other funds raised from the capital markets from time to time.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

During the Track Record Period, we have funded our operations principally with cash generated from our operations and bank loans.

Analysis of Key Financial Ratios

Return on Assets

Our return on assets decreased from approximately 22.0% for the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately 13.6% for the year ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to our net profit increasing at a slower pace than our total assets as a result of increased administrative expenses and finance costs. Our return on assets decreased from approximately 13.6% for the year ended December 31, 2018 to approximately 10.5% for the year ended December 31, 2019, primarily due to our net profit increasing at a slower pace than our total assets as a result of increased administrative expenses.

Return on Equity

Our return on equity was approximately 50.4%, 31.7% and 26.1% for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. Our return on equity decreased during the Track Record Period, primarily due to our total equity increasing at a faster pace than our net profit as a result of additional paid-in capital from our shareholders, which contributed to increased total equity.

Current Ratio

Our current ratio decreased from approximately 1.8 as of December 31, 2017 to approximately 1.7 as of December 31, 2018, and further decreased to approximately 1.6 as of December 31, 2019, primarily due to our current liabilities increasing at a faster pace than our current assets as a result of the increase in our trade payables and other payables and accrued expenses.

Gearing Ratio

Our gearing ratio decreased from approximately 51.6% as of December 31, 2017 to approximately 41.8% as of December 31, 2018, primarily due to a substantial increase in our total equity from increased equity contributions and net profit. Our gearing ratio further decreased to approximately 17.0% as of December 31, 2019, primarily as a result of a decrease in bank and other loans as we made repayments and increased total equity.

Net Debt to Equity Ratio

Our net debt to equity ratio decreased from approximately 38.1% as of December 31, 2017 to approximately 35.9% as of December 31, 2018, primarily due to a substantial increase in our total equity while our bank and other loans remained relatively stable. We had more cash at bank and on hand than interest-bearing bank and other loans as of December 31, 2019.

– 324 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Interest Coverage Ratio

Our interest coverage ratio decreased from approximately 13.4 for the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately 7.9 for the year ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to (i) an increase in the interest on bank and other loans; and (ii) an increase in the interest on Fixed Return Investments as a result of the increases in the amount of the third-party loans in the drama series in which we acted as the executive producer in connection with the co-financing arrangements. Our interest coverage ratio increased to approximately 17.6 for the year ended December 31, 2019, primarily due to a decrease in bank and other loans as we made loan repayments in 2019.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to a variety of financial risks, including credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk in the normal course of our Group’s business. Our Group’s exposure to these risks and financial risk management policies and practices used by our Group to manage these risks are described below. For further details of these risks, please see note 22 to the Accountants’ Report in Appendix I in this document.

Credit Risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the group. Our Group’s credit risk is primarily attributable to trade receivables. Our Group’s exposure to credit risk arising from cash at bank and bills receivables is limited because the counterparties are banks and financial institutions with good credit standing, for which we consider to have low credit risk. Our Group does not provide any other guarantees, which would expose it to credit risk.

Our exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer rather than the industry or country in which the customers operate and therefore significant concentrations of credit risk primarily arise when we have significant exposure to individual customers. As of December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, approximately 75%, 78% and 64% of the total trade receivables was due from our five largest trade debtors, respectively. As of the same dates, approximately 22%, 32%, and 20% of the total trade receivables was due from our Group’s largest trade debtor, respectively.

Individual credit evaluations are performed on all customers requiring credit over a certain amount. These evaluations focus on the customer’s past history of making payments when due and current ability to pay, and take into account information specific to the customer as well as pertaining to the economic environment in which the customer operates. Payment terms varies under our Group’s contracts with each customer, and are negotiated on an individual contract basis. For the licensing of the broadcasting rights of drama series, the total consideration of each contract is settled by installments with reference to the point in time when the drama series materials are delivered and/or the commencement of the broadcasting of the drama series. Generally, the full payment cycle will span over a period of six months to two years. For our other sources of revenue, a credit term of 60 days is generally granted to customers. Normally, our Group does not obtain collateral from customers.

– 325 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

We measure loss allowances for trade receivables at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs, which are calculated using a provision matrix. As our historical credit loss experience does not indicate significantly different loss patterns for different customer segments, the loss allowance based on past due status is not further distinguished between our different customer bases.

Expected loss rates are based on actual loss experience over the past few year. These rates are adjusted to reflect differences between economic conditions during the period over which the historic data has been collected, current conditions and our Group’s view of economic conditions over the expected lives of the receivables.

Liquidity Risk

Our Group’s policy is to regularly monitor our liquidity requirements and our compliance with lending covenants to ensure that we maintain sufficient reserves of cash and adequate committed lines of funding from major financial institutions to meet our liquidity requirements in the short and longer term.

The following tables set forth the remaining contractual maturities at the end of the reporting period of our Group’s non-derivative financial liabilities, which are based on contractual undiscounted cash flows (including interest payments computed using contractual rates or, if floating, based on rates current at the end of the reporting period) and the earliest dates our Group can be required to pay:

We intend to use the receivables we collect from our customers, proceeds from bank loans and cash generated from our operations to settle the liabilities as of December 31, 2019, which fall due within a year or on demand, and our Directors are of the view that these funds would be sufficient to settle such liabilities.

We had approximately RMB511.0 million liabilities falling due within one year or on demand as of December 31, 2019, among which (i) approximately RMB295.0 million trade payables to suppliers are expected to be settled according to the terms of the agreements. Since most of our customers are state-owned TV channels, which normally have a good credit with us, we can enter into factoring arrangements with them to settle the payments due to the relevant suppliers if we experience a tight liquidity situation; (ii) with respect to other payables and accrued expenses measured at amortized cost, (A) approximately RMB80.0 million license fees to be paid to co-investors who invested in our self-produced drama series will be settled after receiving the payments from our customers; (B) approximately RMB43.0 million investment

THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION funds we received from co-investors under the co-financing arrangement will be gradually accounted to the relevant drama series based on their filming and production progress; and (C) approximately RMB20.0 million VAT tax and other surcharge payables had been fully settled by the end of February 2020; (iii) with respect to our bank and other loans of approximately RMB65.0 million, (A) the bank loans primarily represented (a) the discounted bills, which had been settled before their expiry on February 1, 2020; and (b) the factoring arrangements for trade receivables from one of our customers, which are expected to be repaid by the customer in accordance with the relevant factoring agreement; and (B) other loans, which will be due in or after June 2020, primarily represented the Fixed Return Investments from third-party co-investors with fixed repayment terms. We will negotiate with such co-investors to extend the payment period if we experience a tight liquidity situation.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that arises primarily from interest-bearing borrowings. Borrowings issued at variable rate and fixed rates expose our Group to cash flow interest rate risk and fair value interest rate risk, respectively.

Sensitivity Analyses

As of December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, it was estimated that a general increase/decrease of 100 basis points in interest rates, with all other variables held constant, would have decreased/increased our Group’s profit after tax and retained profits by approximately RMB178,000, RMB150,000 and nil, respectively.

The sensitivity analyses above indicate the instantaneous change in our Group’s profit after tax and retained profits that would arise assuming that the change in interest rates had occurred at the end of each year during the Track Record Period. The impact is estimated as an annualized impact on interest exposure of such a change in interest rates. The sensitivity analyses are performed on the same basis during the Track Record Period.

DIVIDENDS

We are a holding company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands. As a result, the payment and amount of any future dividend will depend on the availability of dividends received from our subsidiaries. PRC laws require a foreign-invested enterprise to make up for its accumulative losses out of its after-tax profits and allocate at least 10% of its remaining after-tax profits, if any, to fund its statutory reserves until the aggregate amount of its statutory reserves exceeds 50% of its registered capital.

Any amount of dividend we pay will be at the discretion of our Directors and will depend on our future operations and earnings, capital requirements and surplus, general financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors which our Directors consider relevant. Any declaration and payment as well as the amount of dividend will be subject to our constitutional documents and the Cayman Companies Law. Our Shareholders in a general meeting may approve any declaration of dividends, which must not exceed the amount recommended by our Board. No dividend shall be declared or payable except out of our profits and reserves lawfully available for distribution. Our future declarations of dividends may or may not reflect our historical declarations of dividends and will be at the absolute discretion of the Board.

Historically we have not declared or paid any dividend to our Shareholders and there is no assurance that dividends of any amount will be declared or be distributed in any year. Currently we do not have a formal dividend policy or a fixed dividend distribution ratio.

FUTURE PLANS

See “Business — Business Strategies” in this document for a detailed discussion of our future plans.

[REDACTED]

We estimate that we will receive [REDACTED] of approximately HK$[REDACTED]from the [REDACTED], assuming that the [REDACTED] is not exercised, after deducting the [REDACTED] and other estimated [REDACTED] payable by us and assuming the [REDACTED] of HK$[REDACTED] per Share, being the mid-point of the indicative [REDACTED] range set forth on the cover page of this document. If the [REDACTED]is exercised in full, we estimate that our additional [REDACTED] from the [REDACTED] of these additional Shares will be approximately HK$[REDACTED], after deducting the [REDACTED] and our estimated expenses, assuming an [REDACTED] of HK$[REDACTED] per Share.

We intend to use the [REDACTED]fromthe[REDACTED] for the purposes and in the amounts set out below:

• approximately [REDACTED]%, or HK$[REDACTED] (equivalent to approximately RMB[REDACTED]), is expected to be used primarily to produce the following drama series:

– 331 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FUTURE PLANS AND [REDACTED]

While we have dedicated substantial resources to expand our business of licensing the broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series during the Track Record Period, in order to further enhance the market recognition of our Group as a comprehensive drama series production and distribution company, we have continued to invest and produce our own drama series and license the related broadcasting rights to our customers during the Track Record Period. We intend to further develop and grow this business segment going forward.

According to our past experience, we produced an average of approximately one to two drama series each year during the Track Record Period. In the next three years, we plan to produce approximately 11 drama series (which is equivalent to approximately three to four drama series per year). We believe that we are capable of producing these additional drama series primarily due to (i) the increase in our reserves of IPs for self-produced drama series; (ii) our enhanced profile and market recognition; (iii) the extensive experience our staff accumulated in drama series production and distribution; and (iv) additional professionals we intend to hire to support the expansion of our business, which will enable us to monitor the production progress of each drama series more effectively.

We generally estimate the total investment amount of each genre of drama series to be produced by taking into account a number of factors, including (i) the past experience of our management regarding the production cost of similar genres of self-produced drama series; and (ii) our preliminary research on the quotation from the relevant suppliers regarding the production costs of drama series. We determine the proportion of our investment in each self-produced drama series primarily based on our operating cash flows, while the proportion of investments from third parties is determined by various factors, including (i) the prospects and the estimated investment return of each drama series; and (ii) the brand awareness and reputation of third-party investors.

During the Track Record Period, we received third-party investments in six of our self-produced drama series. The proportion of investment from co-investors in such self-produced drama series ranged from 35.0% to 75.0%. Given the past experience and our operating conditions, we anticipate that cash generated from our operations, investments from third-party investors and [REDACTED]fromthe[REDACTED] will account for approximately 43.5%, 50.0% and 6.5%, respectively, of the total investments in the 11 additional drama series that we plan to self-produce in the next three years. However, the proportion of third-party investments may be adjusted, which mainly depends on the attractiveness of such drama series to the potential investors, the negotiation results with them and the estimated investment budget that we formulate before the production.

• approximately [REDACTED]%, or HK$[REDACTED] (equivalent to approximately RMB[REDACTED]), is expected to be used primarily to outright-purchase the copyrights (or broadcasting rights) associated with approximately [75] drama series in the next three years (including approximately [four] history/war-related drama series, [22] family-related drama series, [25] urban/romance-related drama series, [18] modern/contemporary-related drama series and [six] mainstream-related drama series).

We usually determine the total number of drama series we intend to purchase based on the number of drama series we purchased from third-party copyright owners/licensors each year during the Track Record Period. In the next three years, we will mainly purchase family-related, urban/romance-related and modern/contemporary-related drama series, primarily because: (i) these genres of drama series have a large audience and generally represent a substantial portion of purchases from satellite and terrestrial TV channels, according to our past experience. These genres of drama series also accounted for more than 50.0% of our outright-purchased drama series during the Track Record Period; and (ii) with the growth of our business, we have more opportunities to deal with the leading satellite TV channels in the PRC (which usually refer to the top ten satellite TV channels in terms of rating) from 2017 to 2019. We intend to invest more resources in the future to develop our business relationships with these leading satellite TV channels and provide them with more quality drama series to broadcast. According to our market research, the major viewers of the leading satellite TV channels in the PRC are mainly of younger generation, who prefer to watch modern drama series.

In addition, the estimated amount of each genre we intend to invest is determined by taking into account numerous factors, including (i) our preliminary assessment and estimation on the procurement amount, preferred genres and budget of our target customers based on the average costs of the outright-purchased drama series, which were broadcast or purchased by us in the previous year; (ii) the past experience of our management in estimating the costs of purchasing similar genres of drama series; and (iii) our preliminary research on the quotation from the relevant third-party copyright owners/licensors.

To the extent that the [REDACTED] from the [REDACTED] are not immediately applied to the above purposes, we intend to deposit the [REDACTED] into interest-bearing bank accounts, such as demand deposit accounts, with licensed commercial banks and/or authorized financial institutions in Hong Kong.

In the event that the [REDACTED] is set at the [REDACTED]or[REDACTED]ofthe proposed [REDACTED] range and the [REDACTED] is not exercised at all, we will receive [REDACTED] of approximately HK$[REDACTED].

NOTES TO THE HISTORICAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION (Expressed in RMB unless otherwise indicated)

1 BASIS OF PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION OF THE HISTORICAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Litian Pictures Holdings Limited (the “Company”) was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on 17 June 2019 as an exempted company with limited liability under the Companies Law, Cap 22 (Law 3 of 1961, as consolidated and revised) of the Cayman Islands.

The Company is an investment holding company and has not carried out any business operations since the date of its incorporation save for the corporate reorganisation mentioned below. The Company and its subsidiaries (together, the “Group”) are principally engaged in the production, distribution and licensing of broadcasting rights of drama series.

Prior to the incorporation of the Company and completion of the corporate reorganisation as described below, the principal business of the Group was carried out by Zhejiang LiTian TV & Film Co., Ltd. (浙江力天影視有限公司, “LiTian TV & Film”), which was established as a limited liability company on 2 August 2013 in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”), and its subsidiaries.

To rationalise the corporate structure in preparation of the [REDACTED] of the Company’s shares on the Main Board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Stock Exchange”), the Group underwent a corporate reorganisation (the “Corporate Reorganisation”), as detailed in the section headed “History and Corporate Structure” in the Document.

Since the business conducted by LiTian TV & Film and its subsidiaries is subject to foreign investment restrictions under the relevant laws and regulations in the PRC, as part of the Corporate Reorganisation, Haining Marshal Films Planning Co., Ltd. (海寧元帥影視策劃有限公司, “LiTian WFOE”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a series of agreements (the “Contractual Arrangements”) with LiTian TV & Film and its equity holders which became effective on 14 October 2019. Details of the Contractual Arrangements are set out in section headed “Contractual Arrangements” in the Document. As a result of the Contractual Arrangements, the Group has rights to exercise power over LiTian TV & Film and its subsidiaries, receives variable returns from its involvement in LiTian TV & Film and its subsidiaries, has the ability to affect those returns through its power over LiTian TV & Film and its subsidiaries, and hence, the control over LiTian TV & Film and its subsidiaries. Consequently, the Group regards LiTian TV & Film and its subsidiaries as controlled entities. The directors of the Company have determined that the Contractual Arrangements are in compliance with PRC laws and are legally enforceable.

Upon completion of the Corporate Reorganisation on 14 October 2019, the Company became the holding company of the companies now comprising the Group. The Corporate Reorganisation only involved inserting the Company, LiTian TV & Film Group Limited (“LiTian BVI”), LiTian TV & Film (Hong Kong) Limited (“LiTian HK”) and LiTian WFOE, which are newly formed entities with no substantive operations, as holding companies of LiTian TV & Film and its subsidiaries.

There were no changes in the economic substance of the ownership and business carried out by LiTian TV & Film and its subsidiaries before and after the Corporate Reorganisation. Accordingly, the Historical Financial Information has been prepared and presented as a continuation of the consolidated financial statements of LiTian TV & Film and its subsidiaries with the assets and liabilities of LiTian TV & Film and its subsidiaries recognised and measured at their historical carrying amounts prior to the Corporate Reorganisation. Intra-group balances, transactions and unrealised gains/losses on intra-group transactions are eliminated in full in preparing the Historical Financial Information.

The consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statements of changes in equity and the consolidated cash flow statements of the Group for the Track Record Period as set out in this report include the financial performance and cash flows of the companies now comprising the Group as if the current group structure had been in existence and remained unchanged throughout the Track Record Period, or since their respective dates of incorporation or establishment, where this is a shorter period. The consolidated statements of financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 as set out in this report have been prepared to present the financial position of the companies now comprising the Group as of those dates as if the current group structure had been in existence as of the respective dates taking into account the respective dates of incorporation or establishment, where applicable.

The Historical Financial Information is presented in RMB, rounded to the nearest thousand. The measurement basis used in the preparation of the Historical Financial Information is the historical cost basis.

(b) Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of Historical Financial Information in conformity with IFRSs requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Judgements made by management in the application of IFRSs that have significant effect on the Historical Financial Information and major sources of estimation uncertainty are discussed in Note 3.

(c) Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. When assessing whether the Group has power, only substantive rights (held by the Group and other parties) are considered.

An investment in a subsidiary is consolidated into the Historical Financial Information from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. Intra-group balances, transactions and cash flows and any unrealised profits arising from intra-group transactions are eliminated in full in preparing the Historical Financial Information. Unrealised losses resulting from intra-group transactions are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.

In the Company’s statement of financial position, an investment in a subsidiary is stated at cost less impairment losses (see Note 2(f)).

(d) Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses (see Note 2(f)).

Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item and are recognised in profit or loss on the date of retirement or disposal.

Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of items of property, plant and equipment, less their estimated residual values, if any, using the straight line method over their estimated useful lives as follows:

Estimated useful lives – Office equipment and others...... 2–5years – Right-of-use assets ...... Over the term of lease

Where parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, the cost of the item is allocated on a reasonable basis between the parts and each part is depreciated separately. Both the useful life of an asset and its residual value, if any, are reviewed annually.

(e) Leased assets

At inception of a contract, the Group assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control is conveyed where the Group has both the right to direct the use of the identified asset and to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from that use.

As a lessee

Where the contract contains lease component(s) and non-lease component(s), the Group has elected not to separate non-lease components and accounts for each lease component and any associated non-lease components as a single lease component for all leases.

At the lease commencement date, the Group recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, except for short-term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. When the Group enters into a lease in respect of a low-value asset, the Group decides whether to capitalise the lease on a lease-by-lease basis. The lease payments associated with those leases which are not capitalised are recognised as an expense on a systematic basis over the lease term.

Where the lease is capitalised, the lease liability is initially recognised at the present value of the lease payments payable over the lease term, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, using a relevant incremental borrowing rate. After initial recognition, the lease liability is measured at amortised cost and interest expense is calculated using the effective interest method. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate are not included in the measurement of the lease liability and hence are charged to profit or loss in the accounting period in which they are incurred.

The right-of-use asset recognised when a lease is capitalised is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability plus any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, and any initial direct costs incurred. Where applicable, the cost of the right-of-use assets also includes an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, discounted to their present value, less any lease incentives received. The right-of-use asset is subsequently stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses (see Notes 2(d) and 2(f)).

– I-13 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

The lease liability is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, or there is a change in the Group’s estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, or there is a change arising from the reassessment of whether the Group will be reasonably certain to exercise a purchase, extension or termination option. When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset, or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.

The Group presents right-of-use assets in ‘property, plant and equipment’ and presents lease liabilities separately in the statement of financial position.

(f) Credit losses and impairment of assets

(i) Credit loss from financial instruments and contract assets

The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses (“ECLs”) on financial assets measured at amortised cost (including cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables).

Measurement of ECLs

ECLs are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all expected cash shortfalls (i.e. the difference between the cash flows due to the Group in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Group expects to receive).

The expected cash shortfalls of fixed-rate financial assets, trade and other receivables and contract assets are discounted using the effective interest rate determined at initial recognition or an approximation thereof where the effect of discounting is material.

The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which the Group is exposed to credit risk.

In measuring ECLs, the Group takes into account reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort. This includes information about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.

ECLs are measured on either of the following bases:

– 12-month ECLs: these are losses that are expected to result from possible default events within the 12 months after the reporting date; and

– lifetime ECLs: these are losses that are expected to result from all possible default events over the expected lives of the items to which the ECL model applies.

Loss allowances for trade receivables and contract assets are always measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs. ECLs on these financial assets are estimated using a provision matrix based on the Group’s historical credit loss experience, adjusted for factors that are specific to the debtors and an assessment of both the current and forecast general economic conditions at the reporting date.

For all other financial instruments, the Group recognises a loss allowance equal to 12-month ECLs unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk of the financial instrument since initial recognition, in which case the loss allowance is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs.

Significant increases in credit risk

In assessing whether the credit risk of a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition, the Group compares the risk of default occurring on the financial instrument assessed at the reporting date with that assessed at the date of initial recognition. In making this reassessment, the Group considers that a default event occurs when the borrower is

– I-14 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

unlikely to pay its credit obligation to the Group in full, without resource by the Group to action such as realising security (if any is held). The Group considers both quantitative and qualitative information that is reasonable and supportable, including historical experience and forward-looking information that is available without undue cost or effort.

In particular, the following information is taken into account when assessing whether credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition:

– failure to make payments on their contractually due dates;

– an actual or expected significant deterioration in a financial instrument’s external or internal credit rating (if available);

– an actual or expected significant deterioration in the operating results of the debtor; and

– existing or forecast changes in the market, economic or legal environment that have a significant adverse effect on the debtor’s ability to meet its obligation to the Group.

Depending on the nature of the financial instruments, the assessment of a significant increase in credit risk is performed on either an individual basis or a collective basis. When the assessment is performed on a collective basis, the financial instruments are grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics, such as past due status and credit risk ratings.

ECLs are remeasured at each reporting date to reflect changes in the financial instrument’s credit risk since initial recognition. Any change in the ECL amount is recognised as an impairment gain or loss in profit or loss. The Group recognises an impairment gain or loss for all financial instruments with a corresponding adjustment to their carrying amount through a loss allowance account.

Basis of calculation of interest income

Interest income recognised in accordance with Note 2(p) is calculated based on the gross carrying amount of the financial asset unless the financial asset is credit-impaired, in which case interest income is calculated based on the amortised cost (i.e. the gross carrying amount less loss allowance) of the financial asset.

At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether a financial asset is credit-impaired. A financial asset is credit-impaired when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred.

Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes the following observable events:

– significant financial difficulties of the debtor;

– a breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in payments;

– it becoming probable that the borrower will enter into bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation; or

– significant changes in the market, economic or legal environment that have an adverse effect on the debtor.

Write-off policy

The gross carrying amount of a financial asset or contract asset is written off (either partially or in full) to the extent that there is no realistic prospect of recovery. This is generally the case when the Group determines that the debtor does not have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject to the write-off.

– I-15 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

Subsequent recoveries of an asset that was previously written off are recognised as a reversal of impairment in profit or loss in the period in which the recovery occurs.

(ii) Impairment of other assets

Internal and external sources of information are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to identify indications that the following assets may be impaired or, an impairment loss previously recognised no longer exists or may have decreased:

– drama series copyrights;

– property, plant and equipment; and

– an investment in a subsidiary in the Company’s statement of financial position.

If any such indication exists, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.

– Calculation of recoverable amount

The recoverable amount of an asset is the greater of its fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Where an asset does not generate cash inflows largely independent of those from other assets, the recoverable amount is determined for the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows independently (i.e. a cash-generating unit).

– Recognition of impairment losses

An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss if the carrying amount of an asset, or the cash-generating unit to which it belongs, exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash-generating units are allocated to reduce the carrying amount of the assets in the unit (or group of units) on a pro rata basis, except that the carrying value of an asset will not be reduced below its individual fair value less costs of disposal (if measurable) or value in use (if determinable).

– Reversals of impairment losses

An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a favourable change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount.

A reversal of an impairment loss is limited to the asset’s carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised in prior periods. Reversals of impairment losses are credited to profit or loss in the period in which the reversals are recognised.

(g) Drama series copyrights

Drama series copyrights comprise the (i) distribution rights and copyrights of drama series and (ii) script copyrights, either acquired or produced by the Group. Drama series copyrights are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses (see Note 2(f)). Costs of drama series copyrights comprise consideration payable upon acquisition of drama series and/or costs/expenses incurred during the production of drama series. Script copyrights are stated at cost less impairment losses (see Note 2(f)).

The amortisation of drama series copyrights is determined using the drama series forecast computation method. Under this method, the amount of amortisation is determined based on the proportion of the revenue recognised in the reporting period for each individual drama series to the estimated total revenue expected to be recognised throughout the life cycle of the drama series.

(h) Contract assets and contract liabilities

A contract asset is recognised when the Group recognises revenue (see Note 2(p)) before being unconditionally entitled to the consideration under the payment terms set out in the contract. Contract assets are assessed for ECLs in accordance with the policy set out in Note 2(f) and are reclassified to receivables when the right to the consideration has become unconditional (see Note 2(i)).

A contract liability is recognised when the customer pays consideration before the Group recognises the related revenue (see Note 2(p)). A contract liability would also be recognised if the Group has an unconditional right to receive consideration before the Group recognises the related revenue. In such cases, a corresponding receivable would also be recognised (see Note 2(i)).

For a single contract with the customer, either a net contract asset or a net contract liability is presented. For multiple contracts, contract assets and contract liabilities of unrelated contracts are not presented on a net basis.

When the contract includes a significant financing component, the contract balance includes interest accrued under the effective interest method (see Note 2(p)).

(i) Trade and other receivables

A receivable is recognised when the Group has an unconditional right to receive consideration. A right to receive consideration is unconditional if only the passage of time is required before payment of that consideration is due. If revenue has been recognised before the Group has an unconditional right to receive consideration, the amount is presented as a contract asset (see Note 2(h)).

Receivables are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method less allowance for credit losses (see Note 2(f)).

(j) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions, and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Cash and cash equivalents are assessed for ECL in accordance with the policy set out in Note 2(f).

(k) Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables are initially recognised at fair value. Trade and other payables are subsequently stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.

(l) Interest-bearing borrowings

Interest-bearing borrowings are measured initially at fair value less transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest-bearing borrowings are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense is recognised in accordance with the Group’s accounting policy for borrowing costs (see Note 2(r)).

(m) Employee benefits

(i) Short-term employee benefits and contributions to defined contribution retirement plans

Salaries, annual bonuses, paid annual leave, contributions to defined contribution retirement plans and the cost of non-monetary benefits are accrued in the period in which the associated services are rendered by employees. Where payment or settlement is deferred and the effect would be material, these amounts are stated at their present values.

– I-17 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

(ii) Share-based payments

The fair value of shares granted to employees is recognised as an employee cost with a corresponding increase in equity. The fair value is measured at grant date.

(iii) Termination benefits

Termination benefits are recognised at the earlier of when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits and when it recognises restructuring costs involving the payment of termination benefits.

(n) Income tax

Income tax for the period comprises current tax and movements in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Current tax and movements in deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that they relate to business combinations, items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the relevant amounts of tax are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the period, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous periods.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities arise from deductible and taxable temporary differences respectively, being the differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets also arise from unused tax losses and unused tax credits.

Apart from certain limited exceptions, all deferred tax liabilities, and all deferred tax assets to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilised, are recognised. Future taxable profits that may support the recognition of deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences include those that will arise from the reversal of existing taxable temporary differences, provided those differences relate to the same taxation authority and the same taxable entity, and are expected to reverse either in the same period as the expected reversal of the deductible temporary difference or in periods into which a tax loss arising from the deferred tax asset can be carried back or forward. The same criteria are adopted when determining whether existing taxable temporary differences support the recognition of deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and credits, that is, those differences are taken into account if they relate to the same taxation authority and the same taxable entity, and are expected to reverse in a period, or periods, in which the tax loss or credit can be utilised.

The limited exceptions to recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities are those temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting nor taxable profit (provided they are not part of a business combination), and temporary differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that, in the case of taxable differences, the Group controls the timing of the reversal and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future, or in the case of deductible differences, unless it is probable that they will reverse in the future.

The amount of deferred tax recognised is measured based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.

The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and is reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow the related tax benefit to be utilised. Any such reduction is reversed to the extent that it becomes probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available.

– I-18 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

Current tax balances and deferred tax balances, and movements therein, are presented separately from each other and are not offset. Current tax assets are offset against current tax liabilities, and deferred tax assets against deferred tax liabilities, if the Group has the legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the following additional conditions are met:

– in the case of current tax assets and liabilities, the Group intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realises the asset and settle the liability simultaneously; or

– in the case of deferred tax assets and liabilities, if they relate to income tax levied by the same taxation authority on either:

– the same taxable entity; or

– different taxable entities, which, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered, intend to realise the current tax assets and settle the current tax liabilities on a net basis or realise and settle simultaneously.

(o) Provisions and contingent liabilities

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation arising as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made. Where the time value of money is material, provisions are stated at the present value of the expenditure expected to settle the obligation.

Where it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote.

(p) Revenue and other income

Income is classified by the Group as revenue when it arises from the sale of goods or the provision of services in the ordinary course of the Group’s business.

Revenue is recognised when control over a product or service is transferred to the customer at the amount of promised consideration to which the Group is expected to be entitled, excluding those amounts collected on behalf of third parties. Revenue excludes value added tax or other sales taxes and is after deduction of any trade discounts.

Further details of the Group’s revenue and other income recognition policies are as follows:

(i) Revenue from distribution and licensing of broadcasting rights of drama series

Revenue from distribution and licensing of broadcasting right of drama series to the customer is recognised when the drama series materials are made available to the customer.

(ii) Sale of script copyrights

Revenue from the sale of script copyright is recognised when the title and copy of script copyright are transferred to the customer.

(iii) Revenue from distribution agency services

Revenue from distribution agency service is recognised when the service is rendered.

(iv) Revenue from distribution and licensing of broadcasting rights under co-financing arrangements

Revenue from distribution and licensing of broadcasting right under co-financing arrangement relates to investment in drama series as non-executive producer. Revenue under such arrangement is recognised when the drama series materials are made available to the customer of the executive producer.

– I-19 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

(v) Interest income

Interest income is recognised as it accrues using the effective interest method. For financial assets measured at amortised cost that are not credit-impaired, the effective interest rate is applied to the gross carrying amount of the asset. For credit-impaired financial assets, the effective interest rate is applied to the amortised cost (i.e. gross carrying amount net of loss allowance) of the asset (see Note 2(f)).

(vi) Government grants

Government grants are recognised in the statement of financial position initially when there is reasonable assurance that they will be received and that the Group will comply with the conditions attaching to them. Grants that compensate the Group for expenses incurred are recognised as other income in profit or loss on a systematic basis in the same periods in which the expenses are incurred. Grants that compensate the Group for the cost of an asset are recognised as deferred income and subsequently recognised in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the useful life of the asset.

(q) Translation of foreign currencies

Foreign currency transactions during the period are translated at the foreign exchange rates ruling at the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the foreign exchange rates ruling at the end of the reporting period. Exchange gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss.

Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the foreign exchange rates ruling at the transaction dates. The transaction date is the date on which the Group initially recognises such non-monetary assets or liabilities.

The results of foreign operations are translated into RMB, the Group’s presentation currency, at the exchange rates approximating the foreign exchange rates ruling at the dates of the transactions. Statement of financial position items are translated into RMB at the closing foreign exchange rates at the end of the reporting period. The resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated separately in equity in the exchange reserve.

(r) Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset which necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalised as part of the cost of that asset. Other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

The capitalisation of borrowing costs as part of the cost of a qualifying asset commences when expenditure for the asset is being incurred, borrowing costs are being incurred and activities that are necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are in progress. Capitalisation of borrowing costs is suspended or ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are interrupted or complete.

(s) Related parties

(a) A person, or a close member of that person’s family, is related to the Group if that person:

(i) has control or joint control over the Group;

(ii) has significant influence over the Group; or

(iii) is a member of the key management personnel of the Group or the Group’s parent.

– I-20 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

(b) An entity is related to the Group if any of the following conditions applies:

(i) The entity and the Group are members of the same group.

(ii) One entity is an associate or joint venture of the other entity (or an associate or joint venture of a member of a group of which the other entity is a member).

(iii) Both entities are joint ventures of the same third party.

(iv) One entity is a joint venture of a third entity and the other entity is an associate of the third party.

(v) The entity is a post-employment benefit plan for the benefit of employees of either the Group or an entity related to the Group.

(vi) The entity is controlled or jointly controlled by a person identified in (a).

(vii) A person identified in (a)(i) has significant influence over the entity or is a member of the key management personnel of the entity (or of a parent of the entity).

(viii) The entity, or any member of a group of which it is a part, provides key management personnel services to the Group or to the Group’s parent.

Close members of the family of a person are those family members who may be expected to influence, or be influenced by, that person in their dealings with the entity.

(t) Segment reporting

Operating segments, and the amounts of each segment item reported in the Historical Financial Information, are identified from the financial information provided regularly to the Group’s most senior executive management for the purposes of allocating resources to, and assessing the performance of, the Group’s various lines of business and geographical locations.

Individually material operating segments are not aggregated for financial reporting purposes unless the segments have similar economic characteristics and are similar in respect of the nature of products and services, the nature of production processes, the type or class of customers, the methods used to distribute the products or provide the services, and the nature of the regulatory environment. Operating segments which are not individually material may be aggregated if they share a majority of these criteria.

3 ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES

Key sources of estimation uncertainty are as follows:

(a) Expected credit losses for receivables

The credit losses for trade and other receivables are based on assumptions about the expected loss rates. The Group uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on the Group’s past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of each reporting period. For details of the key assumptions and inputs used, see Note 22(a). Changes in these assumptions and estimates could materially affect the result of the assessment and the Group may make additional loss allowances in future periods.

(b) Amortisation of drama series copyrights

Drama series copyrights are amortised by using the drama series forecast computation method, of which the amount is determined based on the proportion of the revenue recognised in the reporting period for each individual drama series to the estimated total revenue expected to be recognised throughout the life cycle of the drama series.

– I-21 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

The management of the Group reviews the estimated total revenue throughout the life cycle of the drama series regularly in order to determine the amount of amortisation expenses to be recorded during any reporting period. The determination of the estimated total revenue is based on historical experience with similar drama series. The amortisation expenses for future periods are adjusted if there are significant changes from previous estimates.

(c) Impairment of drama series copyrights

If circumstances indicated that the carrying amount of a drama series copyright may not be recoverable, the drama series copyright may be considered “impaired”, and an impairment loss may be recognised in accordance with accounting policy for impairment of drama series copyrights as described in Note 2(f). Drama series copyrights are tested for impairment periodically or whenever the events or changes in circumstances indicate that their recorded carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When such a decline has occurred, the carrying amount is reduced to the recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of the fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In determining the value in use, expected future cash flows generated by the drama series copyright are discounted to their present value, which requires significant judgement relating to the level of revenue to be generated over the life cycle of the drama series copyright. The Group uses all readily available information in determining an amount that is a reasonable approximation of the recoverable amount, including estimates based on reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections of the level of revenue to be generated over the life cycle of the drama series copyright. Changes in these estimates could have a significant impact on the recoverable amount of drama series copyrights and could result in additional impairment charge or reversal of impairment in future periods.

(d) Recognition of deferred tax assets

Deferred tax assets in respect of deductible temporary differences are recognised and measured based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of the assets, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. In determining the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets, expected taxable profits are estimated which involves a number of assumptions relating to the future operating performance of the Group and requires a significant level of judgement exercised by the management. Any change in such assumptions and judgement would affect the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets to be recognised in future periods.

4 REVENUE AND SEGMENT REPORTING

(a) Revenue

The Group is principally engaged in the production, distribution and licensing of broadcasting rights of drama series. All of the Group’s revenue was recognised at a point in time during the Track Record Period.

Disaggregation of revenue

Details of credit risks of the Group are set out in Note 22(a).

(b) Segment reporting

The Group manages its businesses by products and services. In a manner consistent with the way in which information is reported internally to the Group’s most senior executive management for the purposes of resource allocation and performance assessment, the Group has presented the following three reportable segments.

• Self-produced drama series: this segment includes primarily the production, distribution and licensing of broadcasting rights of self-production drama series.

• Outright-purchased drama series: this segment includes primarily the acquisition, distribution and licensing of broadcasting rights of outright-purchased drama series.

• Others: this segment includes miscellaneous revenue streams such as distribution and licensing of broadcasting rights of drama series under co-financing arrangements, acquisition and sale of script copyrights, and provision of distribution agency services.

(i) Segment results

For the purposes of assessing segment performance and allocating resources, the Group’s most senior executive management monitors the results attributable to each reportable segment on the following bases:

Revenue and expenses are allocated to the reportable segments with reference to revenue generated by those segments and the expenses incurred by those segments. The measure used for reporting segment result is gross profit. No inter-segment sales have occurred during the Track Record Period. Assistance provided by one segment to another, including sharing of assets and technical know-how, is not measured.

The Group’s other operating income and expenses, such as other income, selling and marketing expenses, administrative expenses, and finance costs, and assets and liabilities are not measured under individual segments. Accordingly, neither information on segment assets and liabilities nor information concerning capital expenditure, interest income and interest expenses is presented.

21 CAPITAL, RESERVES AND DIVIDENDS

(a) Movements in components of equity

The reconciliations between the opening and closing balances of each component of the Group’s consolidated equity during the Track Record Period are set out in the consolidated statements of changes in equity.

– I-38 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

Details of the changes of the Company’s individual component of equity are set out below:

(b) Share capital

The share capital at 31 December 2019 represented the issued share capital of the Company, comprising 10,000,000 shares at HK$0.01 each.

The Company was incorporated in the Cayman Islands as an exempted company with limited liability on 17 June 2019. Its initial authorised share capital was HK$380,000 divided into 38,000,000 shares with a par value of HK$0.01 each. Upon incorporation, one share was allotted and issued. On 30 September 2019 and 17 October 2019, additional 999,999 shares and 9,000,000 shares were allotted and issued at par value.

(d) Dividends

No dividends were paid by the Group during the Track Record Period. The Company did not declare and pay any dividends since its incorporation. The directors of the Company consider that the dividends made, if any, during the Track Record Period is not indicative of the future dividend policy of the Group.

(e) Capital management

The Group’s primary objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, by pricing products and services commensurately with the level of risk and by securing access to finance at a reasonable cost.

The Group actively and regularly reviews and manages its capital structure to maintain a balance between the higher shareholders returns that might be possible with higher levels of borrowings and the advantages and security afforded by a sound capital position, and makes adjustments to the capital structure in light of changes in economic conditions.

22 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Exposure to credit, liquidity and interest rate risks arises in the normal course of the Group’s business.

– I-39 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

The Group’s exposure to these risks and the financial risk management policies and practices used by the Group to manage these risks are described below:

(a) Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Group. The Group’s credit risk is primarily attributable to trade receivables. The Group’s exposure to credit risk arising from cash at bank and bills receivables is limited because the counterparties are banks and financial institutions with good credit standing, for which the Group considers to have low credit risk. The Group does not provide any other guarantees which would expose the Group to credit risk.

Trade receivables

The Group’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer rather than the industry in which the customers operate and therefore significant concentrations of credit risk primarily arise when the Group has significant exposure to individual customers. At 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019, 22%, 32% and 20% of the total trade receivables was due from the Group’s largest trade debtor. At 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019, 75%, 78% and 64% of the total trade receivables was due from the Group’s five largest trade debtors.

Individual credit evaluations are performed on all customers requiring credit over a certain amount. These evaluations focus on the customer’s past history of making payments when due and current ability to pay, and take into account information specific to the customer as well as pertaining to the economic environment in which the customer operates. Payment terms varies under the Group’s contracts with each customer, and are negotiated on an individual contract basis. For the distribution and licensing of the broadcasting rights of drama series, the total consideration of each contract is settled by instalments with reference to the point in time when the drama series materials are delivered and/or the commencement of the broadcasting of the drama series. Generally, the full payment cycle will span over a period of six months to two years. For the Group’s other sources of revenue, credit term of 60 days is generally granted to customers. Normally, the Group does not obtain collateral from customers.

The Group measures loss allowances for trade receivables at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs, which is calculated using a provision matrix. As the Group’s historical credit loss experience does not indicate significantly different loss patterns for different customer segments, the loss allowance based on past due status is not further distinguished between the Group’s different customer bases.

The following tables provide information about the Group’s exposure to credit risk and ECLs for trade receivables at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019:

At 31 December 2017 Gross Expected carrying Loss loss rate amount allowance % RMB’000 RMB’000

552,462 39,713

Expected loss rates are based on actual loss experience over the recent past years. These rates are adjusted to reflect differences between economic conditions during the period over which the historic data has been collected, current conditions and the Group’s view of economic conditions over the expected lives of the receivables.

(b) Liquidity risk

The Group’s policy is to regularly monitor its liquidity requirements and its compliance with lending covenants, to ensure that it maintains sufficient reserves of cash and adequate committed lines of funding from major financial institutions to meet its liquidity requirements in the short and longer term.

(c) Interest rate risk

The Group’s interest rate risk arises primarily from interest-bearing borrowings. Borrowings issued at variable rates and at fixed rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk and fair value interest rate risk respectively.

(i) Interest rate profile

The following tables detail the interest rate profile of the Group’s total borrowings at the end of each reporting period:

At 31 December 2017 At 31 December 2018 Effective Effective interest rate interest rate % RMB’000 % RMB’000

57,426 Variable rate borrowings: – Bank and other loans . . . –

57,426

Fixed rate borrowings as a percentage of total borrowings ...... 100%

(ii) Sensitivity analyses

At 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019, it is estimated that a general increase/decrease of 100 basis points in interest rates, with all other variables held constant, would have decreased/increased the Group’s profit after tax and retained profits by approximately RMB178,000, RMB150,000 and RMBNil, respectively.

– I-43 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

The sensitivity analyses above indicate the instantaneous change in the Group’s profit after tax and retained profits that would arise assuming that the change in interest rates had occurred at the end of each reporting period. The impact is estimated as an annualised impact on interest exposure of such a change in interest rates. The sensitivity analyses are performed on the same basis during the Track Record Period.

(d) Fair value measurement

Fair value of financial instruments carried at other than fair value

The carrying amounts of the Group’s financial instruments carried at cost or amortised cost are not materially different from their fair values at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019.

26 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

(a) Capitalisation issue

Pursuant to the resolutions of the equity shareholders of the Company passed on [●] as detailed in the section headed “Appendix IV — Statutory and General Information” set out in the Document, conditional on the share premium account of the Company being credited as a result of the [REDACTED] of the Company, the sum of HK$[●] be capitalised and applied in paying up in full at par value [REDACTED] shares for allotment and issue to holders of shares whose names were on the register of members of the Company immediately prior to the [REDACTED] and such shares (or as they may direct) to be allotted and issued pursuant to this resolution shall rank pari passu in all respect with the existing issued shares.

(b) Impacts from the COVID-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19 Pandemic since early 2020 has brought about additional uncertainties in the Group’s operating environment and may impact the Group’s operations and financial position.

The Group has been closely monitoring the impact from the COVID-19 Pandemic on the Group’s businesses and has commenced to put in place various contingency measures. The directors of the Company confirm that these contingency measures include but not limited to reassessing changes (if any) to the customers’ preferences on the types of drama series to be broadcasted, assessing the readiness of the production units and revisiting the progress of self-produced drama series, reassessing the adequacy and suitability of the Group’s existing suppliers inventory of drama series, expanding the Group’s supplier base in a view to procure suitable drama series to be broadcasted, negotiating with customers on possible delay in delivery timetables, increasing monitoring of the business environment of the Group’s customers, and improving the Group’s cash position by expediting debtor settlements and negotiating with suppliers on payment extensions. The Group will keep the contingency measures under review as the COVID-19 Pandemic situation evolves.

As far as the Group’s businesses are concerned, the COVID-19 Pandemic may cause production and delivery delays on self-produced drama series, but the directors of the Company consider that such impact could be reduced by the Group’s expedition of the production process upon the cessation of the COVID-19 Pandemic and/or the identification of suitable replacement from outright-purchased drama series. In addition, the COVID-19 Pandemic may also significantly impact the repayment abilities of the Group’s debtors and the willingness of the customers to procure the Group’s inventory of drama series, which in turn may result in additional impairment losses on trade receivables and drama series copyrights in future periods.

Set out below is a summary of certain provisions of the Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company and of certain aspects of Cayman company law.

The Company was incorporated in the Cayman Islands as an exempted company with limited liability on 17 June, 2019 under the Companies Law, Cap 22 (Law 3 of 1961, as consolidated and revised) of the Cayman Islands (the “Companies Law”). The Company’s constitutional documents consist of its Memorandum of Association (the “Memorandum”) and its Articles of Association (the “Articles”).

1. MEMORANDUM OF ASSOCIATION

(a) The Memorandum states, inter alia, that the liability of members of the Company is limited to the amount, if any, for the time being unpaid on the shares respectively held by them and that the objects for which the Company is established are unrestricted (including acting as an investment company), and that the Company shall have and be capable of exercising all the functions of a natural person of full capacity irrespective of any question of corporate benefit, as provided in section 27(2) of the Companies Law and in view of the fact that the Company is an exempted company that the Company will not trade in the Cayman Islands with any person, firm or corporation except in furtherance of the business of the Company carried on outside the Cayman Islands.

(b) The Company may by special resolution alter its Memorandum with respect to any objects, powers or other matters specified therein.

2. ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION

The Articles were [conditionally] adopted on [●] [with effect from the [REDACTED]]. The following is a summary of certain provisions of the Articles:

(a) Shares

(i) Classes of shares

The share capital of the Company consists of ordinary shares.

(ii) Variation of rights of existing shares or classes of shares

Subject to the Companies Law, if at any time the share capital of the Company is divided into different classes of shares, all or any of the special rights attached to the shares or any class of shares may (unless otherwise provided for by the terms of issue of that class) be varied, modified or abrogated either with the consent in writing of the holders of not less than three-fourths in nominal value of the issued shares of that class or with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a separate general meeting of the holders of the shares of that class. To every such separate general meeting the provisions of the Articles relating to general meetings will mutatis mutandis apply, but so that the necessary quorum (other than at an

– III-1 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE COMPANY AND CAYMAN ISLANDS COMPANY LAW

adjourned meeting) shall be two persons holding or representing by proxy not less than one-third in nominal value of the issued shares of that class and at any adjourned meeting two holders present in person or by proxy (whatever the number of shares held by them) shall be a quorum. Every holder of shares of the class shall be entitled to one vote for every such share held by him.

Any special rights conferred upon the holders of any shares or class of shares shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided in the rights attaching to the terms of issue of such shares, be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further shares ranking pari passu therewith.

(iii) Alteration of capital

The Company may by ordinary resolution of its members:

(i) increase its share capital by the creation of new shares;

(ii) consolidate all or any of its capital into shares of larger amount than its existing shares;

(iii) divide its shares into several classes and attach to such shares any preferential, deferred, qualified or special rights, privileges, conditions or restrictions as the Company in general meeting or as the directors may determine;

(iv) subdivide its shares or any of them into shares of smaller amount than is fixed by the Memorandum; or

(v) cancel any shares which, at the date of passing of the resolution, have not been taken and diminish the amount of its capital by the amount of the shares so cancelled.

The Company may reduce its share capital or any capital redemption reserve or other undistributable reserve in any way by special resolution.

(iv) Transfer of shares

All transfers of shares may be effected by an instrument of transfer in the usual or common form or in a form prescribed by The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Stock Exchange”) or in such other form as the board may approve and which may be under hand or, if the transferor or transferee is a clearing house or its nominee(s), by hand or by machine imprinted signature or by such other manner of execution as the board may approve from time to time.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as any shares are [REDACTED]on the Stock Exchange, titles to such [REDACTED] shares may be evidenced and transferred in accordance with the laws applicable to and the rules and regulations

– III-2 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE COMPANY AND CAYMAN ISLANDS COMPANY LAW

of the Stock Exchange that are or shall be applicable to such [REDACTED] shares. The register of members in respect of its [REDACTED] shares (whether the principal register or a branch register) may be kept by recording the particulars required by Section 40 of the Companies Law in a form otherwise than legible if such recording otherwise complies with the laws applicable to and the rules and regulations of the Stock Exchange that are or shall be applicable to such [REDACTED] shares.

The instrument of transfer shall be executed by or on behalf of the transferor and the transferee provided that the board may dispense with the execution of the instrument of transfer by the transferee. The transferor shall be deemed to remain the holder of the share until the name of the transferee is entered in the register of members in respect of that share.

The board may, in its absolute discretion, at any time transfer any share upon the principal register to any branch register or any share on any branch register to the principal register or any other branch register.

The board may decline to recognise any instrument of transfer unless a fee (not exceeding the maximum sum as the Stock Exchange may determine to be payable) determined by the Directors is paid to the Company, the instrument of transfer is properly stamped (if applicable), it is in respect of only one class of share and is lodged at the relevant registration office or registered office or such other place at which the principal register is kept accompanied by the relevant share certificate(s) and such other evidence as the board may reasonably require to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer (and if the instrument of transfer is executed by some other person on his behalf, the authority of that person so to do).

The registration of transfers may be suspended and the register closed on giving notice by advertisement in any newspaper or by any other means in accordance with the requirements of the Stock Exchange, at such times and for such periods as the board may determine. The register of members must not be closed for periods exceeding in the whole thirty (30) days in any year.

Subject to the above, fully paid shares are free from any restriction on transfer and free of all liens in favour of the Company.

(v) Power of the Company to purchase its own shares

The Company is empowered by the Companies Law and the Articles to purchase its own shares subject to certain restrictions and the board may only exercise this power on behalf of the Company subject to any applicable requirements imposed from time to time by the Stock Exchange.

Where the Company purchases for redemption a redeemable share, purchases not made through the market or by tender must be limited to a maximum price determined by the Company in general meeting. If purchases are by tender, tenders must be made available to all members alike.

– III-3 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE COMPANY AND CAYMAN ISLANDS COMPANY LAW

The board may accept the surrender for no consideration of any fully paid share.

(vi) Power of any subsidiary of the Company to own shares in the Company

There are no provisions in the Articles relating to ownership of shares in the Company by a subsidiary.

(vii) Calls on shares and forfeiture of shares

The board may from time to time make such calls upon the members in respect of any monies unpaid on the shares held by them respectively (whether on account of the nominal value of the shares or by way of premium). A call may be made payable either in one lump sum or by installments. If the sum payable in respect of any call or instalment is not paid on or before the day appointed for payment thereof, the person or persons from whom the sum is due shall pay interest on the same at such rate not exceeding twenty per cent. (20%) per annum as the board may agree to accept from the day appointed for the payment thereof to the time of actual payment, but the board may waive payment of such interest wholly or in part. The board may, if it thinks fit, receive from any member willing to advance the same, either in money or money’s worth, all or any part of the monies uncalled and unpaid or installments payable upon any shares held by him, and upon all or any of the monies so advanced the Company may pay interest at such rate (if any) as the board may decide.

If a member fails to pay any call on the day appointed for payment thereof, the board may serve not less than fourteen (14) clear days’ notice on him requiring payment of so much of the call as is unpaid, together with any interest which may have accrued and which may still accrue up to the date of actual payment and stating that, in the event of non-payment at or before the time appointed, the shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited.

If the requirements of any such notice are not complied with, any share in respect of which the notice has been given may at any time thereafter, before the payment required by the notice has been made, be forfeited by a resolution of the board to that effect. Such forfeiture will include all dividends and bonuses declared in respect of the forfeited share and not actually paid before the forfeiture.

A person whose shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a member in respect of the forfeited shares but shall, notwithstanding, remain liable to pay to the Company all monies which, at the date of forfeiture, were payable by him to the Company in respect of the shares, together with (if the board shall in its discretion so require) interest thereon from the date of forfeiture until the date of actual payment at such rate not exceeding twenty per cent. (20%) per annum as the board determines.

(b) Directors

(i) Appointment, retirement and removal

At each annual general meeting, one third of the Directors for the time being (or if their number is not a multiple of three, then the number nearest to but not less than one third) shall retire from office by rotation provided that every Director shall be subject to retirement at an annual general meeting at least once every three years. The Directors to retire by rotation shall include any Director who wishes to retire and not offer himself for re-election. Any further Directors so to retire shall be those who have been longest in office since their last re-election or appointment but as between persons who became or were last re-elected Directors on the same day those to retire will (unless they otherwise agree among themselves) be determined by lot.

Neither a Director nor an alternate Director is required to hold any shares in the Company by way of qualification. Further, there are no provisions in the Articles relating to retirement of Directors upon reaching any age limit.

The Directors have the power to appoint any person as a Director either to fill a casual vacancy on the board or as an addition to the existing board. Any Director appointed to fill a casual vacancy shall hold office until the first general meeting of members after his appointment and be subject to re-election at such meeting and any Director appointed as an addition to the existing board shall hold office only until the next following annual general meeting of the Company and shall then be eligible for re-election. A Director may be removed by an ordinary resolution of the Company before the expiration of his period of office (but without prejudice to any claim which such Director may have for damages for any breach of any contract between him and the Company) and members of the Company may by ordinary resolution appoint another in his place. Unless otherwise determined by the Company in general meeting, the number of Directors shall not be less than two. There is no maximum number of Directors.

The office of director shall be vacated if:

(aa) he resigns by notice in writing delivered to the Company;

(bb) he becomes of unsound mind or dies;

(cc) without special leave, he is absent from meetings of the board for six (6) consecutive months, and the board resolves that his office is vacated;

(dd) he becomes bankrupt or has a receiving order made against him or suspends payment or compounds with his creditors;

(ee) he is prohibited from being a director by law; or

– III-5 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE COMPANY AND CAYMAN ISLANDS COMPANY LAW

(ff) he ceases to be a director by virtue of any provision of law or is removed from office pursuant to the Articles.

The board may appoint one or more of its body to be managing director, joint managing director, or deputy managing director or to hold any other employment or executive office with the Company for such period and upon such terms as the board may determine and the board may revoke or terminate any of such appointments. The board may delegate any of its powers, authorities and discretions to committees consisting of such Director or Directors and other persons as the board thinks fit, and it may from time to time revoke such delegation or revoke the appointment of and discharge any such committees either wholly or in part, and either as to persons or purposes, but every committee so formed must, in the exercise of the powers, authorities and discretions so delegated, conform to any regulations that may from time to time be imposed upon it by the board.

(ii) Power to allot and issue shares and warrants

Subject to the provisions of the Companies Law and the Memorandum and Articles and to any special rights conferred on the holders of any shares or class of shares, any share may be issued (a) with or have attached thereto such rights, or such restrictions, whether with regard to dividend, voting, return of capital, or otherwise, as the Directors may determine, or (b) on terms that, at the option of the Company or the holder thereof, it is liable to be redeemed.

The board may issue warrants or convertible securities or securities of similar nature conferring the right upon the holders thereof to subscribe for any class of shares or securities in the capital of the Company on such terms as it may determine.

Subject to the provisions of the Companies Law and the Articles and, where applicable, the rules of the Stock Exchange and without prejudice to any special rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any shares or any class of shares, all unissued shares in the Company are at the disposal of the board, which may offer, allot, grant options over or otherwise dispose of them to such persons, at such times, for such consideration and on such terms and conditions as it in its absolute discretion thinks fit, but so that no shares shall be issued at a discount to their nominal value.

Neither the Company nor the board is obliged, when making or granting any allotment of, offer of, option over or disposal of shares, to make, or make available, any such allotment, offer, option or shares to members or others with registered addresses in any particular territory or territories being a territory or territories where, in the absence of a registration statement or other special formalities, this would or might, in the opinion of the board, be unlawful or impracticable. Members affected as a result of the foregoing sentence shall not be, or be deemed to be, a separate class of members for any purpose whatsoever.

(iii) Power to dispose of the assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries

There are no specific provisions in the Articles relating to the disposal of the assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. The Directors may, however, exercise all powers and do all acts and things which may be exercised or done or approved by the Company and which are not required by the Articles or the Companies Law to be exercised or done by the Company in general meeting.

(iv) Borrowing powers

The board may exercise all the powers of the Company to raise or borrow money, to mortgage or charge all or any part of the undertaking, property and assets and uncalled capital of the Company and, subject to the Companies Law, to issue debentures, bonds and other securities of the Company, whether outright or as collateral security for any debt, liability or obligation of the Company or of any third party.

(v) Remuneration

The ordinary remuneration of the Directors is to be determined by the Company in general meeting, such sum (unless otherwise directed by the resolution by which it is voted) to be divided amongst the Directors in such proportions and in such manner as the board may agree or, failing agreement, equally, except that any Director holding office for part only of the period in respect of which the remuneration is payable shall only rank in such division in proportion to the time during such period for which he held office. The Directors are also entitled to be prepaid or repaid all travelling, hotel and incidental expenses reasonably expected to be incurred or incurred by them in attending any board meetings, committee meetings or general meetings or separate meetings of any class of shares or of debentures of the Company or otherwise in connection with the discharge of their duties as Directors.

Any Director who, by request, goes or resides abroad for any purpose of the Company or who performs services which in the opinion of the board go beyond the ordinary duties of a Director may be paid such extra remuneration as the board may determine and such extra remuneration shall be in addition to or in substitution for any ordinary remuneration as a Director. An executive Director appointed to be a managing director, joint managing director, deputy managing director or other executive officer shall receive such remuneration and such other benefits and allowances as the board may from time to time decide. Such remuneration may be either in addition to or in lieu of his remuneration as a Director.

The board may establish or concur or join with other companies (being subsidiary companies of the Company or companies with which it is associated in business) in establishing and making contributions out of the Company’s monies to any schemes or funds for providing pensions, sickness or compassionate

– III-7 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE COMPANY AND CAYMAN ISLANDS COMPANY LAW

allowances, life assurance or other benefits for employees (which expression as used in this and the following paragraph shall include any Director or past Director who may hold or have held any executive office or any office of profit with the Company or any of its subsidiaries) and ex-employees of the Company and their dependents or any class or classes of such persons.

The board may pay, enter into agreements to pay or make grants of revocable or irrevocable, and either subject or not subject to any terms or conditions, pensions or other benefits to employees and ex-employees and their dependents, or to any of such persons, including pensions or benefits additional to those, if any, to which such employees or ex-employees or their dependents are or may become entitled under any such scheme or fund as is mentioned in the previous paragraph. Any such pension or benefit may, as the board considers desirable, be granted to an employee either before and in anticipation of, or upon or at any time after, his actual retirement.

The board may resolve to capitalise all or any part of any amount for the time being standing to the credit of any reserve or fund (including a share premium account and the profit and loss account) whether or not the same is available for distribution by applying such sum in paying up unissued shares to be allotted to (i) employees (including directors) of the Company and/or its affiliates (meaning any individual, corporation, partnership, association, joint-stock company, trust, unincorporated association or other entity (other than the Company) that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with, the Company) upon exercise or vesting of any options or awards granted under any share incentive scheme or employee benefit scheme or other arrangement which relates to such persons that has been adopted or approved by the members in general meeting, or (ii) any trustee of any trust to whom shares are to be allotted and issued by the Company in connection with the operation of any share incentive scheme or employee benefit scheme or other arrangement which relates to such persons that has been adopted or approved by the members in general meeting.

(vi) Compensation or payments for loss of office

Pursuant to the Articles, payments to any Director or past Director of any sum by way of compensation for loss of office or as consideration for or in connection with his retirement from office (not being a payment to which the Director is contractually entitled) must be approved by the Company in general meeting.

(vii) Loans and provision of security for loans to Directors

The Company must not make any loan, directly or indirectly, to a Director or his close associate(s) if and to the extent it would be prohibited by the Companies Ordinance (Chapter 622 of the laws of Hong Kong) as if the Company were a company incorporated in Hong Kong.

(viii) Disclosure of interests in contracts with the Company or any of its subsidiaries

A Director may hold any other office or place of profit with the Company (except that of the auditor of the Company) in conjunction with his office of Director for such period and upon such terms as the board may determine, and may be paid such extra remuneration therefor in addition to any remuneration provided for by or pursuant to the Articles. A Director may be or become a director or other officer of, or otherwise interested in, any company promoted by the Company or any other company in which the Company may be interested, and shall not be liable to account to the Company or the members for any remuneration, profits or other benefits received by him as a director, officer or member of, or from his interest in, such other company. The board may also cause the voting power conferred by the shares in any other company held or owned by the Company to be exercised in such manner in all respects as it thinks fit, including the exercise thereof in favour of any resolution appointing the Directors or any of them to be directors or officers of such other company, or voting or providing for the payment of remuneration to the directors or officers of such other company.

No Director or proposed or intended Director shall be disqualified by his office from contracting with the Company, either with regard to his tenure of any office or place of profit or as vendor, purchaser or in any other manner whatsoever, nor shall any such contract or any other contract or arrangement in which any Director is in any way interested be liable to be avoided, nor shall any Director so contracting or being so interested be liable to account to the Company or the members for any remuneration, profit or other benefits realised by any such contract or arrangement by reason of such Director holding that office or the fiduciary relationship thereby established. A Director who to his knowledge is in any way, whether directly or indirectly, interested in a contract or arrangement or proposed contract or arrangement with the Company must declare the nature of his interest at the meeting of the board at which the question of entering into the contract or arrangement is first taken into consideration, if he knows his interest then exists, or in any other case, at the first meeting of the board after he knows that he is or has become so interested.

A Director shall not vote (nor be counted in the quorum) on any resolution of the board approving any contract or arrangement or other proposal in which he or any of his close associates is materially interested, but this prohibition does not apply to any of the following matters, namely:

(aa) any contract or arrangement for giving to such Director or his close associate(s) any security or indemnity in respect of money lent by him or any of his close associates or obligations incurred or undertaken by him or any of his close associates at the request of or for the benefit of the Company or any of its subsidiaries;

– III-9 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE COMPANY AND CAYMAN ISLANDS COMPANY LAW

(bb) any contract or arrangement for the giving of any security or indemnity to a third party in respect of a debt or obligation of the Company or any of its subsidiaries for which the Director or his close associate(s) has himself/themselves assumed responsibility in whole or in part whether alone or jointly under a guarantee or indemnity or by the giving of security;

(cc) any contract or arrangement concerning an offer of shares or debentures or other securities of or by the Company or any other company which the Company may promote or be interested in for subscription or purchase, where the Director or his close associate(s) is/are or is/are to be interested as a participant in the underwriting or sub-underwriting of the offer;

(dd) any contract or arrangement in which the Director or his close associate(s) is/are interested in the same manner as other holders of shares or debentures or other securities of the Company by virtue only of his/their interest in shares or debentures or other securities of the Company; or

(ee) any proposal or arrangement concerning the adoption, modification or operation of a share option scheme, a pension fund or retirement, death, or disability benefits scheme or other arrangement which relates both to Directors, his close associates and employees of the Company or of any of its subsidiaries and does not provide in respect of any Director, or his close associate(s), as such any privilege or advantage not accorded generally to the class of persons to which such scheme or fund relates.

(c) Proceedings of the Board

The board may meet for the dispatch of business, adjourn and otherwise regulate its meetings as it considers appropriate. Questions arising at any meeting shall be determined by a majority of votes. In the case of an equality of votes, the chairman of the meeting shall have an additional or casting vote.

(d) Alterations to constitutional documents and the Company’s name

The Articles may be rescinded, altered or amended by the Company in general meeting by special resolution. The Articles state that a special resolution shall be required to alter the provisions of the Memorandum, to amend the Articles or to change the name of the Company.

(e) Meetings of members

(i) Special and ordinary resolutions

A special resolution of the Company must be passed by a majority of not less than three-fourths of the votes cast by such members as, being entitled so to do, vote in person or, in the case of such members as are corporations, by their duly authorised representatives or, where proxies are allowed, by proxy at a general meeting of which notice has been duly given in accordance with the Articles.

Under the Companies Law, a copy of any special resolution must be forwarded to the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands within fifteen (15) days of being passed.

An ordinary resolution is defined in the Articles to mean a resolution passed by a simple majority of the votes of such members of the Company as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or, in the case of corporations, by their duly authorised representatives or, where proxies are allowed, by proxy at a general meeting of which notice has been duly given in accordance with the Articles.

(ii) Voting rights and right to demand a poll

Subject to any special rights or restrictions as to voting for the time being attached to any shares, at any general meeting on a poll every member present in person or by proxy or, in the case of a member being a corporation, by its duly authorised representative shall have one vote for every fully paid share of which he is the holder but so that no amount paid up or credited as paid up on a share in advance of calls or installments is treated for the foregoing purposes as paid up on the share. A member entitled to more than one vote need not use all his votes or cast all the votes he uses in the same way.

At any general meeting a resolution put to the vote of the meeting is to be decided by way of a poll save that the chairman of the meeting may in good faith, allow a resolution which relates purely to a procedural or administrative matter to be voted on by a show of hands in which case every member present in person (or being a corporation, is present by a duly authorized representative), or by proxy(ies) shall have one vote provided that where more than one proxy is appointed by a member which is a clearing house (or its nominee(s)), each such proxy shall have one vote on a show of hands.

If a recognised clearing house (or its nominee(s)) is a member of the Company it may authorise such person or persons as it thinks fit to act as its representative(s) at any meeting of the Company or at any meeting of any class of members of the Company provided that, if more than one person is so authorised, the authorisation shall specify the number and class of shares in respect of which each such person is so authorised. A person authorised pursuant to this provision shall be deemed to

– III-11 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE COMPANY AND CAYMAN ISLANDS COMPANY LAW

have been duly authorised without further evidence of the facts and be entitled to exercise the same powers on behalf of the recognised clearing house (or its nominee(s)) as if such person was the registered holder of the shares of the Company held by that clearing house (or its nominee(s)) including, where a show of hands is allowed, the right to vote individually on a show of hands.

Where the Company has any knowledge that any shareholder is, under the rules of the Stock Exchange, required to abstain from voting on any particular resolution of the Company or restricted to voting only for or only against any particular resolution of the Company, any votes cast by or on behalf of such shareholder in contravention of such requirement or restriction shall not be counted.

(iii) Annual general meetings and extraordinary general meetings

The Company must hold an annual general meeting of the Company every year within a period of not more than fifteen (15) months after the holding of the last preceding annual general meeting or a period of not more than eighteen (18) months from the date of adoption of the Articles, unless a longer period would not infringe the rules of the Stock Exchange.

Extraordinary general meetings may be convened on the requisition of one or more shareholders holding, at the date of deposit of the requisition, not less than one-tenth of the paid up capital of the Company having the right of voting at general meetings. Such requisition shall be made in writing to the board or the secretary for the purpose of requiring an extraordinary general meeting to be called by the board for the transaction of any business specified in such requisition. Such meeting shall be held within 2 months after the deposit of such requisition. If within 21 days of such deposit, the board fails to proceed to convene such meeting, the requisitionist(s) himself/herself (themselves) may do so in the same manner, and all reasonable expenses incurred by the requisitionist(s) as a result of the failure of the board shall be reimbursed to the requisitionist(s) by the Company.

(iv) Notices of meetings and business to be conducted

An annual general meeting must be called by notice of not less than twenty-one (21) clear days and not less than twenty (20) clear business days. All other general meetings must be called by notice of at least fourteen (14) clear days and not less than ten (10) clear business days. The notice is exclusive of the day on which it is served or deemed to be served and of the day for which it is given, and must specify the time and place of the meeting and particulars of resolutions to be considered at the meeting and, in the case of special business, the general nature of that business.

In addition, notice of every general meeting must be given to all members of the Company other than to such members as, under the provisions of the Articles or the terms of issue of the shares they hold, are not entitled to receive such notices from the Company, and also to, among others, the auditors for the time being of the Company.

– III-12 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE COMPANY AND CAYMAN ISLANDS COMPANY LAW

Any notice to be given to or by any person pursuant to the Articles may be served on or delivered to any member of the Company personally, by post to such member’s registered address or by advertisement in newspapers in accordance with the requirements of the Stock Exchange. Subject to compliance with Cayman Islands law and the rules of the Stock Exchange, notice may also be served or delivered by the Company to any member by electronic means.

All business that is transacted at an extraordinary general meeting and at an annual general meeting is deemed special, save that in the case of an annual general meeting, each of the following business is deemed an ordinary business:

(aa) the declaration and sanctioning of dividends;

(bb) the consideration and adoption of the accounts and balance sheet and the reports of the directors and the auditors;

(cc) the election of directors in place of those retiring;

(dd) the appointment of auditors and other officers; and

(ee) the fixing of the remuneration of the directors and of the auditors.

(v) Quorum for meetings and separate class meetings

No business shall be transacted at any general meeting unless a quorum is present when the meeting proceeds to business, but the absence of a quorum shall not preclude the appointment of a chairman.

The quorum for a general meeting shall be two members present in person (or, in the case of a member being a corporation, by its duly authorised representative) or by proxy and entitled to vote. In respect of a separate class meeting (other than an adjourned meeting) convened to sanction the modification of class rights the necessary quorum shall be two persons holding or representing by proxy not less than one-third in nominal value of the issued shares of that class.

(vi) Proxies

Any member of the Company entitled to attend and vote at a meeting of the Company is entitled to appoint another person as his proxy to attend and vote instead of him. A member who is the holder of two or more shares may appoint more than one proxy to represent him and vote on his behalf at a general meeting of the Company or at a class meeting. A proxy need not be a member of the Company and is entitled to exercise the same powers on behalf of a member who is an individual and for whom he acts as proxy as such member could exercise. In addition, a proxy is entitled to exercise the same powers on behalf of a member which is a corporation and for which he acts as proxy as such member could exercise as if it were an individual member. Votes may be given either personally (or, in the case of a member being a corporation, by its duly authorised representative) or by proxy.

(f) Accounts and audit

The board shall cause true accounts to be kept of the sums of money received and expended by the Company, and the matters in respect of which such receipt and expenditure take place, and of the property, assets, credits and liabilities of the Company and of all other matters required by the Companies Law or necessary to give a true and fair view of the Company’s affairs and to explain its transactions.

The accounting records must be kept at the registered office or at such other place or places as the board decides and shall always be open to inspection by any Director. No member (other than a Director) shall have any right to inspect any accounting record or book or document of the Company except as conferred by law or authorised by the board or the Company in general meeting. However, an exempted company must make available at its registered office in electronic form or any other medium, copies of its books of account or parts thereof as may be required of it upon service of an order or notice by the Tax Information Authority pursuant to the Tax Information Authority Law of the Cayman Islands.

A copy of every balance sheet and profit and loss account (including every document required by law to be annexed thereto) which is to be laid before the Company at its general meeting, together with a printed copy of the Directors’ report and a copy of the auditors’ report, shall not less than twenty-one (21) days before the date of the meeting and at the same time as the notice of annual general meeting be sent to every person entitled to receive notices of general meetings of the Company under the provisions of the Articles; however, subject to compliance with all applicable laws, including the rules of the Stock Exchange, the Company may send to such persons summarised financial statements derived from the Company’s annual accounts and the directors’ report instead provided that any such person may by notice in writing served on the Company, demand that the Company sends to him, in addition to summarised financial statements, a complete printed copy of the Company’s annual financial statement and the directors’ report thereon.

At the annual general meeting or at a subsequent extraordinary general meeting in each year, the members shall appoint an auditor to audit the accounts of the Company and such auditor shall hold office until the next annual general meeting. Moreover, the members may, at any general meeting, by special resolution remove the auditor at any time before the expiration of his terms of office and shall by ordinary resolution at that meeting appoint another auditor for the remainder of his term. The remuneration of the auditors shall be fixed by the Company in general meeting or in such manner as the members may determine.

The financial statements of the Company shall be audited by the auditor in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which may be those of a country or jurisdiction other than the Cayman Islands. The auditor shall make a written report thereon in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and the report of the auditor must be submitted to the members in general meeting.

(g) Dividends and other methods of distribution

The Company in general meeting may declare dividends in any currency to be paid to the members but no dividend shall be declared in excess of the amount recommended by the board.

The Articles provide dividends may be declared and paid out of the profits of the Company, realised or unrealised, or from any reserve set aside from profits which the directors determine is no longer needed. With the sanction of an ordinary resolution dividends may also be declared and paid out of share premium account or any other fund or account which can be authorised for this purpose in accordance with the Companies Law.

Except in so far as the rights attaching to, or the terms of issue of, any share may otherwise provide, (i) all dividends shall be declared and paid according to the amounts paid up on the shares in respect whereof the dividend is paid but no amount paid up on a share in advance of calls shall for this purpose be treated as paid up on the share and (ii) all dividends shall be apportioned and paid pro rata according to the amount paid up on the shares during any portion or portions of the period in respect of which the dividend is paid. The Directors may deduct from any dividend or other monies payable to any member or in respect of any shares all sums of money (if any) presently payable by him to the Company on account of calls or otherwise.

Whenever the board or the Company in general meeting has resolved that a dividend be paid or declared on the share capital of the Company, the board may further resolve either (a) that such dividend be satisfied wholly or in part in the form of an allotment of shares credited as fully paid up, provided that the shareholders entitled thereto will be entitled to elect to receive such dividend (or part thereof) in cash in lieu of such allotment, or (b) that shareholders entitled to such dividend will be entitled to elect to receive an allotment of shares credited as fully paid up in lieu of the whole or such part of the dividend as the board may think fit.

The Company may also upon the recommendation of the board by an ordinary resolution resolve in respect of any one particular dividend of the Company that it may be satisfied wholly in the form of an allotment of shares credited as fully paid up without offering any right to shareholders to elect to receive such dividend in cash in lieu of such allotment.

Any dividend, interest or other sum payable in cash to the holder of shares may be paid by cheque or warrant sent through the post addressed to the holder at his registered address, or in the case of joint holders, addressed to the holder whose name stands first in the register of the Company in respect of the shares at his address as appearing in the register or addressed to such person and at such addresses as the holder or joint holders may in writing direct. Every such cheque or warrant shall, unless the holder or joint holders otherwise direct, be made payable to the order of the holder or, in the case of joint holders, to the order of the holder whose name stands first on the register in respect of

– III-15 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE COMPANY AND CAYMAN ISLANDS COMPANY LAW

such shares, and shall be sent at his or their risk and payment of the cheque or warrant by the bank on which it is drawn shall constitute a good discharge to the Company. Any one of two or more joint holders may give effectual receipts for any dividends or other moneys payable or property distributable in respect of the shares held by such joint holders.

Whenever the board or the Company in general meeting has resolved that a dividend be paid or declared the board may further resolve that such dividend be satisfied wholly or in part by the distribution of specific assets of any kind.

All dividends or bonuses unclaimed for one year after having been declared may be invested or otherwise made use of by the board for the benefit of the Company until claimed and the Company shall not be constituted a trustee in respect thereof. All dividends or bonuses unclaimed for six years after having been declared may be forfeited by the board and shall revert to the Company.

No dividend or other monies payable by the Company on or in respect of any share shall bear interest against the Company.

(h) Inspection of corporate records

Pursuant to the Articles, the register and branch register of members shall be open to inspection for at least two (2) hours during business hours by members without charge, or by any other person upon a maximum payment of HK$2.50 or such lesser sum specified by the board, at the registered office or such other place at which the register is kept in accordance with the Companies Law or, upon a maximum payment of HK$1.00 or such lesser sum specified by the board, at the office where the branch register of members is kept, unless the register is closed in accordance with the Articles.

(i) Rights of minorities in relation to fraud or oppression

There are no provisions in the Articles relating to rights of minority shareholders in relation to fraud or oppression. However, certain remedies are available to shareholders of the Company under Cayman Islands law, as summarised in paragraph 3(f) of this Appendix.

(j) Procedures on liquidation

A resolution that the Company be wound up by the court or be wound up voluntarily shall be a special resolution.

– III-16 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE COMPANY AND CAYMAN ISLANDS COMPANY LAW

Subject to any special rights, privileges or restrictions as to the distribution of available surplus assets on liquidation for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares:

(i) if the Company is wound up and the assets available for distribution amongst the members of the Company shall be more than sufficient to repay the whole of the capital paid up at the commencement of the winding up, the excess shall be distributed pari passu amongst such members in proportion to the amount paid up on the shares held by them respectively; and

(ii) if the Company is wound up and the assets available for distribution amongst the members as such shall be insufficient to repay the whole of the paid-up capital, such assets shall be distributed so that, as nearly as may be, the losses shall be borne by the members in proportion to the capital paid up, or which ought to have been paid up, at the commencement of the winding up on the shares held by them respectively.

If the Company is wound up (whether the liquidation is voluntary or by the court) the liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution and any other sanction required by the Companies Law divide among the members in specie or kind the whole or any part of the assets of the Company whether the assets shall consist of property of one kind or shall consist of properties of different kinds and the liquidator may, for such purpose, set such value as he deems fair upon any one or more class or classes of property to be divided as aforesaid and may determine how such division shall be carried out as between the members or different classes of members. The liquidator may, with the like authority, vest any part of the assets in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of members as the liquidator, with the like authority, shall think fit, but so that no contributory shall be compelled to accept any shares or other property in respect of which there is a liability.

(k) Subscription rights reserve

The Articles provide that to the extent that it is not prohibited by and is in compliance with the Companies Law, if warrants to subscribe for shares have been issued by the Company and the Company does any act or engages in any transaction which would result in the subscription price of such warrants being reduced below the par value of a share, a subscription rights reserve shall be established and applied in paying up the difference between the subscription price and the par value of a share on any exercise of the warrants.

3. CAYMAN ISLANDS COMPANY LAW

The Company is incorporated in the Cayman Islands subject to the Companies Law and, therefore, operates subject to Cayman Islands law. Set out below is a summary of certain provisions of Cayman company law, although this does not purport to contain all applicable qualifications and exceptions or to be a complete review of all matters of Cayman company law and taxation, which may differ from equivalent provisions in jurisdictions with which interested parties may be more familiar:

(a) Company operations

As an exempted company, the Company’s operations must be conducted mainly outside the Cayman Islands. The Company is required to file an annual return each year with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands and pay a fee which is based on the amount of its authorised share capital.

(b) Share capital

The Companies Law provides that where a company issues shares at a premium, whether for cash or otherwise, a sum equal to the aggregate amount of the value of the premiums on those shares shall be transferred to an account, to be called the “share premium account”. At the option of a company, these provisions may not apply to premiums on shares of that company allotted pursuant to any arrangement in consideration of the acquisition or cancellation of shares in any other company and issued at a premium.

The Companies Law provides that the share premium account may be applied by the company subject to the provisions, if any, of its memorandum and articles of association in (a) paying distributions or dividends to members; (b) paying up unissued shares of the company to be issued to members as fully paid bonus shares; (c) the redemption and repurchase of shares (subject to the provisions of section 37 of the Companies Law); (d) writing-off the preliminary expenses of the company; and (e) writing-off the expenses of, or the commission paid or discount allowed on, any issue of shares or debentures of the company.

No distribution or dividend may be paid to members out of the share premium account unless immediately following the date on which the distribution or dividend is proposed to be paid, the company will be able to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business.

The Companies Law provides that, subject to confirmation by the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands (the “Court”), a company limited by shares or a company limited by guarantee and having a share capital may, if so authorised by its articles of association, by special resolution reduce its share capital in any way.

(c) Financial assistance to purchase shares of a company or its holding company

There is no statutory restriction in the Cayman Islands on the provision of financial assistance by a company to another person for the purchase of, or subscription for, its own or its holding company’s shares. Accordingly, a company may provide financial assistance if the directors of the company consider, in discharging their duties of care and acting in good faith, for a proper purpose and in the interests of the company, that such assistance can properly be given. Such assistance should be on an arm’s-length basis.

(d) Purchase of shares and warrants by a company and its subsidiaries

A company limited by shares or a company limited by guarantee and having a share capital may, if so authorised by its articles of association, issue shares which are to be redeemed or are liable to be redeemed at the option of the company or a shareholder and the Companies Law expressly provides that it shall be lawful for the rights attaching to any shares to be varied, subject to the provisions of the company’s articles of association, so as to provide that such shares are to be or are liable to be so redeemed. In addition, such a company may, if authorised to do so by its articles of association, purchase its own shares, including any redeemable shares. However, if the articles of association do not authorise the manner and terms of purchase, a company cannot purchase any of its own shares unless the manner and terms of purchase have first been authorised by an ordinary resolution of the company. At no time may a company redeem or purchase its shares unless they are fully paid. A company may not redeem or purchase any of its shares if, as a result of the redemption or purchase, there would no longer be any issued shares of the company other than shares held as treasury shares. A payment out of capital by a company for the redemption or purchase of its own shares is not lawful unless immediately following the date on which the payment is proposed to be made, the company shall be able to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business.

Shares purchased by a company is to be treated as cancelled unless, subject to the memorandum and articles of association of the company, the directors of the company resolve to hold such shares in the name of the company as treasury shares prior to the purchase. Where shares of a company are held as treasury shares, the company shall be entered in the register of members as holding those shares, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, the company is not be treated as a member for any purpose and must not exercise any right in respect of the treasury shares, and any purported exercise of such a right shall be void, and a treasury share must not be voted, directly or indirectly, at any meeting of the company and must not be counted in determining the total number of issued shares at any given time, whether for the purposes of the company’s articles of association or the Companies Law.

A company is not prohibited from purchasing and may purchase its own warrants subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the relevant warrant instrument or certificate. There is no requirement under Cayman Islands law that a company’s memorandum or articles of association contain a specific provision enabling

– III-19 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE COMPANY AND CAYMAN ISLANDS COMPANY LAW

such purchases and the directors of a company may rely upon the general power contained in its memorandum of association to buy and sell and deal in personal property of all kinds.

Under Cayman Islands law, a subsidiary may hold shares in its holding company and, in certain circumstances, may acquire such shares.

(e) Dividends and distributions

The Companies Law permits, subject to a solvency test and the provisions, if any, of the company’s memorandum and articles of association, the payment of dividends and distributions out of the share premium account. With the exception of the foregoing, there are no statutory provisions relating to the payment of dividends. Based upon English case law, which is regarded as persuasive in the Cayman Islands, dividends may be paid only out of profits.

No dividend may be declared or paid, and no other distribution (whether in cash or otherwise) of the company’s assets (including any distribution of assets to members on a winding up) may be made to the company, in respect of a treasury share.

(f) Protection of minorities and shareholders’ suits

The Courts ordinarily would be expected to follow English case law precedents which permit a minority shareholder to commence a representative action against or derivative actions in the name of the company to challenge (a) an act which is ultra vires the company or illegal, (b) an act which constitutes a fraud against the minority and the wrongdoers are themselves in control of the company, and (c) an irregularity in the passing of a resolution which requires a qualified (or special) majority.

In the case of a company (not being a bank) having a share capital divided into shares, the Court may, on the application of members holding not less than one fifth of the shares of the company in issue, appoint an inspector to examine into the affairs of the company and to report thereon in such manner as the Court shall direct.

Any shareholder of a company may petition the Court which may make a winding up order if the Court is of the opinion that it is just and equitable that the company should be wound up or, as an alternative to a winding up order, (a) an order regulating the conduct of the company’s affairs in the future, (b) an order requiring the company to refrain from doing or continuing an act complained of by the shareholder petitioner or to do an act which the shareholder petitioner has complained it has omitted to do, (c) an order authorising civil proceedings to be brought in the name and on behalf of the company by the shareholder petitioner on such terms as the Court may direct, or (d) an order providing for the purchase of the shares of any shareholders of the company by other shareholders or by the company itself and, in the case of a purchase by the company itself, a reduction of the company’s capital accordingly.

Generally claims against a company by its shareholders must be based on the general laws of contract or tort applicable in the Cayman Islands or their individual rights as shareholders as established by the company’s memorandum and articles of association.

(g) Disposal of assets

The Companies Law contains no specific restrictions on the power of directors to dispose of assets of a company. However, as a matter of general law, every officer of a company, which includes a director, managing director and secretary, in exercising his powers and discharging his duties must do so honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the company and exercise the care, diligence and skill that a reasonably prudent person would exercise in comparable circumstances.

(h) Accounting and auditing requirements

A company must cause proper books of account to be kept with respect to (i) all sums of money received and expended by the company and the matters in respect of which the receipt and expenditure takes place; (ii) all sales and purchases of goods by the company; and (iii) the assets and liabilities of the company.

Proper books of account shall not be deemed to be kept if there are not kept such books as are necessary to give a true and fair view of the state of the company’s affairs and to explain its transactions.

An exempted company must make available at its registered office in electronic form or any other medium, copies of its books of account or parts thereof as may be required of it upon service of an order or notice by the Tax Information Authority pursuant to the Tax Information Authority Law of the Cayman Islands.

(i) Exchange control

There are no exchange control regulations or currency restrictions in the Cayman Islands.

(j) Taxation

Pursuant to the Tax Concessions Law of the Cayman Islands, the Company has obtained an undertaking:

(1) that no law which is enacted in the Cayman Islands imposing any tax to be levied on profits, income, gains or appreciation shall apply to the Company or its operations; and

(2) that the aforesaid tax or any tax in the nature of estate duty or inheritance tax shall not be payable on or in respect of the shares, debentures or other obligations of the Company.

The undertaking for the Company is for a period of twenty years from 26 June 2019.

– III-21 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE COMPANY AND CAYMAN ISLANDS COMPANY LAW

The Cayman Islands currently levy no taxes on individuals or corporations based upon profits, income, gains or appreciations and there is no taxation in the nature of inheritance tax or estate duty. There are no other taxes likely to be material to the Company levied by the Government of the Cayman Islands save for certain stamp duties which may be applicable, from time to time, on certain instruments executed in or brought within the jurisdiction of the Cayman Islands. The Cayman Islands are a party to a double tax treaty entered into with the United Kingdom in 2010 but otherwise is not party to any double tax treaties.

(k) Stamp duty on transfers

No stamp duty is payable in the Cayman Islands on transfers of shares of Cayman Islands companies except those which hold interests in land in the Cayman Islands.

(l) Loans to directors

There is no express provision in the Companies Law prohibiting the making of loans by a company to any of its directors.

(m) Inspection of corporate records

Members of the Company have no general right under the Companies Law to inspect or obtain copies of the register of members or corporate records of the Company. They will, however, have such rights as may be set out in the Company’s Articles.

(n) Register of members

An exempted company may maintain its principal register of members and any branch registers at such locations, whether within or without the Cayman Islands, as the directors may, from time to time, think fit. The register of members shall contain such particulars as required by Section 40 of the Companies Law. A branch register must be kept in the same manner in which a principal register is by the Companies Law required or permitted to be kept. The company shall cause to be kept at the place where the company’s principal register is kept a duplicate of any branch register duly entered up from time to time.

There is no requirement under the Companies Law for an exempted company to make any returns of members to the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands. The names and addresses of the members are, accordingly, not a matter of public record and are not available for public inspection. However, an exempted company shall make available at its registered office, in electronic form or any other medium, such register of members, including any branch register of members, as may be required of it upon service of an order or notice by the Tax Information Authority pursuant to the Tax Information Authority Law of the Cayman Islands.

– III-22 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE COMPANY AND CAYMAN ISLANDS COMPANY LAW

(o) Register of Directors and Officers

The Company is required to maintain at its registered office a register of directors and officers which is not available for inspection by the public. A copy of such register must be filed with the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands and any change must be notified to the Registrar within thirty (30) days of any change in such directors or officers.

(p) Beneficial Ownership Register

An exempted company is required to maintain a beneficial ownership register at its registered office that records details of the persons who ultimately own or control, directly or indirectly, more than 25% of the equity interests or voting rights of the company or have rights to appoint or remove a majority of the directors of the company. The beneficial ownership register is not a public document and is only accessible by a designated competent authority of the Cayman Islands. Such requirement does not, however, apply to an exempted company with its shares [REDACTED] on an approved stock exchange, which includes the Stock Exchange. Accordingly, for so long as the shares of the Company are [REDACTED] on the Stock Exchange, the Company is not required to maintain a beneficial ownership register.

(q) Winding up

A company may be wound up (a) compulsorily by order of the Court, (b) voluntarily, or (c) under the supervision of the Court.

The Court has authority to order winding up in a number of specified circumstances including where the members of the company have passed a special resolution requiring the company to be wound up by the Court, or where the company is unable to pay its debts, or where it is, in the opinion of the Court, just and equitable to do so. Where a petition is presented by members of the company as contributories on the ground that it is just and equitable that the company should be wound up, the Court has the jurisdiction to make certain other orders as an alternative to a winding-up order, such as making an order regulating the conduct of the company’s affairs in the future, making an order authorising civil proceedings to be brought in the name and on behalf of the company by the petitioner on such terms as the Court may direct, or making an order providing for the purchase of the shares of any of the members of the company by other members or by the company itself.

A company (save with respect to a limited duration company) may be wound up voluntarily when the company so resolves by special resolution or when the company in general meeting resolves by ordinary resolution that it be wound up voluntarily because it is unable to pay its debts as they fall due. In the case of a voluntary winding up, such company is obliged to cease to carry on its business (except so far as it may be beneficial for its winding up) from the time of passing the resolution for voluntary winding up or upon the expiry of the period or the occurrence of the event referred to above.

– III-23 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE COMPANY AND CAYMAN ISLANDS COMPANY LAW

For the purpose of conducting the proceedings in winding up a company and assisting the Court therein, there may be appointed an official liquidator or official liquidators; and the court may appoint to such office such person, either provisionally or otherwise, as it thinks fit, and if more persons than one are appointed to such office, the Court must declare whether any act required or authorised to be done by the official liquidator is to be done by all or any one or more of such persons. The Court may also determine whether any and what security is to be given by an official liquidator on his appointment; if no official liquidator is appointed, or during any vacancy in such office, all the property of the company shall be in the custody of the Court.

As soon as the affairs of the company are fully wound up, the liquidator must make a report and an account of the winding up, showing how the winding up has been conducted and how the property of the company has been disposed of, and thereupon call a general meeting of the company for the purposes of laying before it the account and giving an explanation thereof. This final general meeting must be called by at least 21 days’ notice to each contributory in any manner authorised by the company’s articles of association and published in the Gazette.

(r) Reconstructions

There are statutory provisions which facilitate reconstructions and amalgamations approved by a majority in number representing seventy-five per cent. (75%) in value of shareholders or class of shareholders or creditors, as the case may be, as are present at a meeting called for such purpose and thereafter sanctioned by the Court. Whilst a dissenting shareholder would have the right to express to the Court his view that the transaction for which approval is sought would not provide the shareholders with a fair value for their shares, the Court is unlikely to disapprove the transaction on that ground alone in the absence of evidence of fraud or bad faith on behalf of management.

(s) Take-overs

Where an offer is made by a company for the shares of another company and, within four (4) months of the offer, the holders of not less than ninety per cent. (90%) of the shares which are the subject of the offer accept, the offeror may at any time within two (2) months after the expiration of the said four (4) months, by notice in the prescribed manner require the dissenting shareholders to transfer their shares on the terms of the offer. A dissenting shareholder may apply to the Court within one (1) month of the notice objecting to the transfer. The burden is on the dissenting shareholder to show that the Court should exercise its discretion, which it will be unlikely to do unless there is evidence of fraud or bad faith or collusion as between the offeror and the holders of the shares who have accepted the offer as a means of unfairly forcing out minority shareholders.

(t) Indemnification

Cayman Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Court to be contrary to public policy (e.g. for purporting to provide indemnification against the consequences of committing a crime).

(u) Economic Substance Requirements

Pursuant to the International Tax Cooperation (Economic Substance) Law, 2018 of the Cayman Islands (“ES Law”) that came into force on 1 January 2019, a “relevant entity” is required to satisfy the economic substance test set out in the ES Law. A “relevant entity” includes an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands as is the Company; however, it does not include an entity that is tax resident outside the Cayman Islands. Accordingly, for so long as the Company is a tax resident outside the Cayman Islands, including in Hong Kong, it is not required to satisfy the economic substance test set out in the ES Law.

5. Repurchase of our Shares

This section includes information relating to the repurchases of securities, including information required by the Stock Exchange to be included in this document concerning such repurchase.

(a) Provisions of the Listing Rules

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 restrictions are summarized below:

(i) Shareholders’ approval

All proposed repurchases of Shares must be approved in advance by an ordinary resolution of our Shareholders in a general meeting, either by way of general mandate or by specific approval in relation to a particular transaction.

Pursuant to the written resolutions of the then shareholder of our Company passed on [●], a general unconditional mandate (the “Repurchase Mandate”) was given to our Directors to exercise all powers of our Company to repurchase Shares (Shares which may be [REDACTED] on the Stock Exchange) with a total nominal value of not more than 10% of the total number of Shares in issue or to be issued immediately following completion of the [REDACTED] (excluding Shares which may be issued pursuant to the exercise of the [REDACTED] and any options which may be granted under the Share Option Scheme), further details of which have been described above in the paragraph headed “A. Further information about our Company — 4. Written resolutions of the then shareholder of our Company passed on [●]” in this Appendix.

(ii) Source of funds

Any repurchases of Shares by us must be paid out of funds legally available for the purpose in accordance with our Articles of Association, the Listing Rules and the Companies Law. We are not permitted to repurchase our Shares on the Stock Exchange for a consideration other than cash or for settlement otherwise than in accordance with the trading rules of the Stock Exchange from time to time.

(iii) Shares to be repurchased

The Listing Rules provide that the Shares which are proposed to be repurchased by us must be fully-paid up.

(b) Reasons for repurchases

Our Directors believe that it is in the best interests of our Company and our Shareholders for our Directors to have general authority from our Shareholders to enable them to repurchase Shares in the market. Such repurchases 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 where our Directors believe that such repurchases will benefit our Company and our Shareholders.

–IV-6– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX IV STATUTORY AND GENERAL INFORMATION

(c) Funding of repurchases

In repurchasing Shares, we may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with the Articles of Association, the Listing Rules and the applicable laws and regulations of the Cayman Islands.

On the basis of our Company’s current financial position as disclosed in this document and taking into account its current working capital position, our Directors consider that, if the Repurchase Mandate is exercised in full, it might have a material adverse effect on our working capital and/or gearing position as compared with the position disclosed in this document. However, our Directors do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent as it would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on our working capital requirements or the gearing levels which in the opinion of our Directors are from time to time appropriate for us.

(d) General

None of our Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their close associates currently intends to sell any Shares to us.

Our Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and the applicable laws and regulations of the Cayman Islands.

If, as a result of any repurchase of Shares, a shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights is increased, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a shareholder or a group of shareholders acting in concert could obtain or consolidate control of us and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with rule 26 of the Takeovers Code. Save as aforesaid, our Directors are not aware of any consequences which would arise under the Takeovers Code as a consequence of any repurchases pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate.

We have not made any repurchases of our own securities in the past six months.

No core connected person has notified us that he/she has a present intention to sell Shares to us, or has undertaken not to do so, if the Repurchase Mandate is exercised.

B. CORPORATE REORGANIZATION

In order to streamline the corporate structure and rationalize our corporate structure for the [REDACTED], our Group underwent the Corporate Reorganization. Please see the sub-section headed “History and Corporate Structure — Corporate Reorganization” in this document for details.

3. Maximum number of Shares

The maximum number of Shares which may be issued upon exercise of all options to be granted under the Share Option Scheme and any other schemes of our Group shall not in aggregate exceed 10% of the Shares in issue as at the [REDACTED] (such 10% limit representing [REDACTED] Shares) excluding Shares which may fall to be issued upon the exercise of the [REDACTED] granted by our Company (the “Scheme Mandate Limit”) provided that:

(a) our Company may at any time as our Board may think fit seek approval from our Shareholders to refresh the Scheme Mandate Limit, save that the maximum number of Shares which may be issued upon exercise of all options to be granted under the Share Option Scheme and any other schemes of our Company shall not exceed 10% of our Shares in issue as at the date of approval by our Shareholders in general meeting where the Scheme Mandate Limit is refreshed. Options previously granted under the Share Option Scheme and any other schemes of our Company (including those outstanding, cancelled, lapsed or exercised in accordance with the terms of the Share Option Scheme or any other schemes of our Company) shall not be counted for the purpose of calculating the Scheme Mandate Limit as refreshed. Our Company shall send to our Shareholders a circular containing the details and information required under the Listing Rules;

Where any further grant of Options to such an Eligible Person would result in our Shares issued and to be issued upon exercise of all Options granted and to be granted to such Eligible Person (including exercised, cancelled and outstanding Options) in the 12-month period up to and including the date of such further grant representing in aggregate over 1% of our Shares in issue, such further grant shall be separately approved by our Shareholders in general meeting with such Eligible Person and his close associates (or his associates if such Eligible Person is a connected person) abstaining from voting.

The number and terms (including the subscription price) of the Options to be granted to such Eligible Person must be fixed before the approval of our Shareholders and the date of the Board meeting proposing such grant shall be taken as the offer date for the purpose of calculating the subscription price of those Options.

5. Offer and grant of Options

Subject to the terms of the Share Option Scheme, the Board shall be entitled at any time within 10 years from the Adoption Date to offer the grant of an Option to any Eligible Person as the Board may in its absolute discretion select to subscribe at the subscription price for such number of Shares as the Board may (subject to the terms of the Share Option Scheme) determine (provided the same shall be a board lot for dealing in the Shares on the Stock Exchange or an integral multiple thereof).

6. Granting Options to connected persons

Subject to the terms in the Share Option Scheme, only insofar as and for so long as the Listing Rules require, where any offer of an Option is proposed to be made to a director, chief executive or a substantial shareholder (as defined in the Listing Rules) of our Company or any of their respective associates, such offer must first be approved by the independent non-executive Directors of our Company (excluding the independent non-executive Director who or whose associates is the grantee of an Option).

Where any grant of Options to a substantial shareholder (as defined in the Listing Rules) or an independent non-executive Director of our Company, or any of their respective associates, would result in the securities issued and to be issued upon exercise of all Options already granted and to be granted (including Options exercised, cancelled and outstanding) to such person in the 12-month period up to and including the date of such grant:

(a) representing in aggregate over 0.1% of the relevant class of securities in issue; and

(b) (where the securities are listed on the Stock Exchange), having an aggregate value, based on the closing price of the securities at the date of each grant, in excess of HK$5.0 million,

such further grant of Options must be approved by our Shareholders (voting by way of a poll). Our Company shall send a circular to our Shareholders containing the information required under the Listing Rules. The grantee, his associates and all core connected persons of our Company must abstain from voting in favor at such general meeting.

Approval from our Shareholders is required for any change in the terms of Options granted to a participant who is a substantial shareholder or an independent non-executive Director of our Company, or any of their respective associates.

The Board shall not grant any Option under the Share Option Scheme after inside information has come to its knowledge until such inside information has been announced pursuant to the requirements of the Listing Rules. In particular, no Option shall be granted during the period commencing one month immediately preceding the earlier of the date of the Board meeting (as such date is first notified to the Stock Exchange in accordance with the Listing Rules) for the approval of our Company’s results for any year, half-year, quarterly or any other interim period (whether or not required under the Listing Rules) and the deadline for our Company to publish an announcement of its results for any year, half-year, quarterly or any other interim period (whether or not required under the Listing Rules), and ending on the date of the results announcements.

8. Minimum holding period, vesting and performance target

Subject to the provisions of the Listing Rules, the Board may in its absolute discretion when offering the grant of an Option impose any conditions, restrictions or limitations in relation thereto in addition to those set forth in the Share Option Scheme as the Board may think fit (to be stated in the letter containing the offer of the grant of the Option) including (without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing) qualifying and/or continuing eligibility criteria, conditions, restrictions or limitations relating to the achievement of performance, operating or financial targets by our Company and/or the grantee, the satisfactory performance or maintenance by the grantee of certain conditions or obligations or the time or period before the right to exercise the Option in respect of any of the Shares shall vest provided that such terms or conditions shall not be inconsistent with any other terms or conditions of the Share Option Scheme. For the avoidance of doubt, subject to such terms and conditions as the Board may determine as aforesaid (including such terms and conditions in relation to their vesting, exercise or otherwise) there is no minimum period for which an Option must be held before it can be exercised and no performance target which need to be achieved by the grantee before the Option can be exercised.

9. Amount payable for Options and offer period

An offer of the grant of an Option shall remain open for acceptance by the Eligible Person concerned for a period of 28 days from the offer date provided that no such grant of an Option may be accepted after the expiry of the effective period of the Share Option Scheme. An Option shall be deemed to have been granted and accepted by the Eligible Person and to have taken effect when the duplicate offer letter comprising acceptance of the offer of the Option duly signed by the grantee together with a remittance in favor of our Company of HK$1.00 by way of consideration for the grant thereof is received by our Company on or before the date upon which an offer of an Option must be accepted by the relevant Eligible Person, being a date no later than 28 days after the offer date (the “Acceptance Date”). Such remittance shall in no circumstances be refundable.

To the extent that the offer of the grant of an Option is not accepted by the Acceptance Date, it will be deemed to have been irrevocably declined.

10. Subscription price

The subscription price in respect of any particular Option shall be such price as the Board may in its absolute discretion determine at the time of grant of the relevant Option (and shall be stated in the letter containing the offer of the grant of the Option) but the subscription price shall not be less than whichever is the highest of:

(a) the nominal value of a Share;

(b) the closing price of a Share as stated in the Stock Exchange’s daily quotations sheet on the offer date; and

(c) the average closing price of a Share as stated in the Stock Exchange’s daily quotations sheets for the 5 Business Days (as defined in the Listing Rules) immediately preceding the offer date.

Each such notice must be accompanied by a remittance for the full amount of the aggregate subscription price for the Shares in respect of which the notice is given. Within 28 days after receipt of the notice and, where appropriate, receipt of a certificate from our auditors pursuant to the Share Option Scheme, our Company shall accordingly allot and issue the relevant number of Shares to the grantee (or his or her legal personal representative(s)) credited as fully paid with effect from (but excluding) the relevant exercise date and issue to the grantee (or his or her legal personal representative(s)) share certificate(s) in respect of the Shares so allotted.

14. Adjustment

In the event of any alteration to the capital structure of our Company while any Option remains exercisable, whether by way of capitalization of profits or reserves, right issue, consolidations, reclassification, reconstruction, sub-division or reduction of the share capital of our Company, the Board may, if it considers the same to be appropriate, direct that adjustments be made to:

(a) the maximum number of Shares subject to the Share Option Scheme; and/or

(b) the aggregate number of Shares subject to the Option so far as unexercised; and/or

(c) the subscription price of each outstanding Option.

Where the Board determines that such adjustments are appropriate (other than an adjustment arising from a capitalization issue), the auditors appointed by our Company shall certify in writing to the Board that any such adjustments are in their opinion fair and reasonable, provided that:

(a) the grantee commits or permits or attempts to commit or permit a breach of restriction on transferability of Option or any terms or conditions attached to the grant of the Option;

(b) the grantee makes a written request to the Board for the Option to be cancelled; or

(c) if the grantee has, in the opinion of the Board, conducted himself in any manner whatsoever to the detriment of or prejudicial to the interests of our Company or its subsidiary.

16. Ranking of Shares

The Shares to be allotted upon the exercise of an Option will be subject to all the provisions of the Articles of Association and the laws of the Cayman Islands from time to time and shall rank pari passu in all respects with the then existing fully paid Shares in issue commencing from (i) the allotment date or, (ii) if that date falls on a day when the register of members of our Company is closed, the first date of the re-opening of the register of members. Accordingly, it will entitle the holders to participate in all dividends or other distributions paid or made on or after (i) the allotment date or, (ii) if that date falls on a day when the register of members of our Company is closed, the first day of the re-opening of the register of members, other than any dividend or other distribution previously declared or recommended or resolved to be paid or made if the record date therefore shall be before the allotment date.

Share issued upon the exercise of an Option shall not carry rights until the registration of the grantee (or any other person) as the holder thereof.

Upon termination of the Share Option Scheme as aforesaid, no further Options shall be offered but the provisions of the Share Option Scheme shall remain in force and effect in all other respects.
