INDUSTRY OVERVIEW OVERVIEW OF THE PROPERTY MARKET IN THE PRC The PRC government has put in place certain policies that are intended to stabilise real estate prices and control real estate loans in the PRC. These policies primarily relate to, among others, control over purchasing properties for speculation and adjustment of the minimum capital ratio of fixed asset investment projects according to the economic situations and the necessity of macro-economic control. The official borrowing and saving rates of the PBOC reached the peak in July 2011, and was then adjusted downward twice in 2012, once in November 2014 and in March 2015. As a result of this change in monetary policy, the financing costs to purchase properties are lowered. This is expected to improve the liquidity and stimulate the demand of the property market, and to maintain market growth at a steady rate. Under the effects of domestic investment, consumption and rapid growth of the PRC economy, the PRC property market has been growing rapidly.

According to the goals described in the planning outline, Hainan will become a worldwide first-class island leisure resort by 2020. By then, value added from the tourism industry as a percentage of provincial GDP should exceed 12%, while the total contribution of tertiary industries should reach to 60%. Provincial urban and rural GDP, along with citizens’ living standards, should reach to national advanced level, while aggregate environmental quality should remain at a leading level nationally. The plan proposes that by 2020, the percentage of “clean energy” as part of primary energy consumption should be in the 50% proportion, while vehicle exhaust emissions will meet national advanced level standards. –84– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
