Mr. Feng has tendered his resignation as an independent director, a member of the audit committee of the Board, a member of the compensation committee of the Board and a member of the nominating and corporate governance committee of the Board due to personal reasons.

Prior to joining China Development Bank Capital, Ms. Chang served at United Credit Ratings Co., Ltd., a leading domestically regulated credit rating agency in China, from July 2013 to February 2015, where she was primarily responsible for sovereign credit rating analysis, independently conducting comprehensive assessments of macroeconomic conditions, fiscal health, sovereign debt, foreign exchange reserves, geopolitical risks, and financial system stability at the national level. From September 2008 to January 2011, Ms. Chang served at PricewaterhouseCoopers in Beijing, where she participated in annual financial statement audits and specialized internal control audits for multiple listed companies and large central state-owned enterprises.

Ms. Chang is a Certified Public Accountant in China and holds the title of Intermediate Economist.
