Relationship with CK Hutchison

Letters of awareness with respect to loans

CK Hutchison has provided letters of awareness to certain of our lenders stating that it is aware that loan facilities have been provided to us and that its current intention is that for so long as amounts are outstanding under such loan facilities, it will not reduce its direct or indirect shareholding as to result in it ceasing to be the single largest indirect shareholder of our company.

Relationship Agreement with the CK Hutchison group

We entered into a relationship agreement dated April 21, 2006, which was amended and restated on June 13, 2019 with effect from June 3, 2015, with Hutchison Whampoa (China) Limited, which is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of CK Hutchison, with a view to ensuring that our company is capable of carrying on its business independent of the CK Hutchison group. We refer to this agreement as the Relationship Agreement. The Relationship Agreement provides, among other things, that all transactions between any of us or our joint ventures, on the one hand, and the CK Hutchison group, on the other, will be on an arm’s length basis, on normal commercial terms and in a manner consistent with the AIM Rules. The Relationship Agreement further provides that the approval of our board of directors shall be required for any transaction between any of us or our joint ventures, on one hand, and the CK Hutchison group, on the other hand and that in approving any such transaction, our board of directors must consist of at least one director who is independent of CK Hutchison. Our board of directors must consist of at least one director who is independent of the CK Hutchison group if Hutchison Whampoa (China) Limited is entitled to cast at least 50% votes eligible to be cast on a poll vote at a general meeting of our company, see Item 6. C. “ Directors, Senior Management and Employees - Board Practices.” Hutchison Whampoa (China) Limited has also agreed to procure that each member of the Hutchison Whampoa (China) Limited group will not exercise its voting rights and powers so as to amend our Memorandum or Articles of Association in a manner which is inconsistent with the Relationship Agreement. The Relationship Agreement will continue to be effective until the first to occur of: (i) our shares ceasing to be traded on the AIM market or; (ii) the CK Hutchison group individually or collectively cease to hold or control
