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.

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.
