CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM OF THE STOCK EXCHANGE OF HONG KONG LIMITED (THE “STOCK EXCHANGE”)

GEM has been positioned as a market designed to accommodate small and mid-sized companies to which a higher

investment risk may be attached than other companies listed on the Stock Exchange. Prospective investors should be

aware of the potential risks of investing in such companies and should make the decision to invest only after due and

careful consideration.

Given that the companies listed on GEM are generally small and mid-sized companies, there is a risk that securities

traded on GEM may be more susceptible to high market volatility than securities traded on the Main Board and no

assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited and the Stock Exchange take no responsibility for the contents of this report, make no

representation as to its accuracy or completeness and expressly disclaim any liability whatsoever for any loss howsoever arising

from or in reliance upon the whole or any part of the contents of this report.

This report, for which the directors (the “Directors”) of Great Water Holdings Limited (the “Company”) collectively and individually

accept full responsibility, includes particulars given in compliance with the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the GEM of

the Stock Exchange (the “GEM Listing Rules”) for the purpose of giving information with regard to the Company. The Directors,

having made all reasonable enquiries, confirm that, to the best of their knowledge and belief the information contained in this

report is accurate and complete in all material respects and not misleading or deceptive; there are no other matters the omission of

which would make any statement herein or this report misleading.
