 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Reasons for and benefits of the revision of the Original Annual Caps </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company expects that the Original Annual Caps will be exceeded, which leads to the need to revise the Original Annual Caps after
considering the following factors: (a)&nbsp;the total amounts of the General Services fees and the guarantee services fees received by the Group from Ping An Consumer Finance and the maximum monthly average balance of the principal amount to be
guaranteed by the Group for the clients of Ping An Consumer Finance in the first half of 2025, and (b)&nbsp;the expected development and growth in Ping An Consumer Finance&#8217;s business which is supported by favorable government policies on
stimulating consumption in the PRC. The Original Annual Caps were set in April 2023, and at that time, the Company did not expect the increase in the transaction amount as shown in the first half of 2025. The Company therefore <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">re-assessed</FONT> the Original Annual Caps in light of the business development in the first half of 2025 and the anticipated demand for the General Services and guarantee services in the coming months. The business of
Ping An Consumer Finance, being a subsidiary of the Company, is fully integrated with the business of the Group. The Group believes that business collaboration with Ping An Consumer Finance would be most cost-effective and beneficial to the Group.
In view of the benefits of the transactions, the Company considers it is in its interest to increase the volume of such transactions and to revise the Original Annual Caps to cater for such increasing business needs for the Group. </P>

services </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For each type of the services provided by the Group, the service fees to be paid to the Group will be determined on the
basis of a reasonable transfer pricing method after arm&#8217;s length negotiations between the relevant parties taking into consideration various commercial factors such as the nature of the services, the frequency for the Group to provide such
services/products, the transaction amount. When there is no market comparable to or available market quotation for services the Group offers to Ping An Consumer Finance, the Group&#8217;s service fees will be determined on a cost-plus basis with a
reasonable profit margin. When there is a market comparable to services the Group offers to Ping An Consumer Finance, the Group&#8217;s service fees shall be within the range of the prevailing market rates applicable to such services. The Group will
also ensure that the terms of supplying services to Ping An Consumer Finance are fair and reasonable. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Historical amounts </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In respect of the General Services provided by the Group to Ping An Consumer Finance, the transaction amount paid by Ping An Consumer Finance
to the Group was RMB403.7&nbsp;million, RMB722.6&nbsp;million and RMB707.3&nbsp;million for each of the two years ended December&nbsp;31, 2023 and 2024 and the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2025, respectively. The actual transaction amounts for the
period from January&nbsp;1, 2025 up to the Latest Practicable Date have not exceeded the original annual cap for the financial year ending December&nbsp;31, 2025. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In respect of the guarantee services provided by the Group for Ping An Consumer Finance, the maximum monthly average balance of the principal
amount guaranteed by the Group for the clients of Ping An Consumer Finance for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2023 and 2024 and the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2025 was RMB6,674.3&nbsp;million, RMB8,400.0&nbsp;million and
RMB13,657.0&nbsp;million, respectively, and the guarantee service fees received by the Group from them for each of the two years ended December&nbsp;31, 2023 and 2024 and the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2025 was RMB233.3&nbsp;million,
RMB512.9&nbsp;million and RMB452.0&nbsp;million, respectively. The respective actual transaction amounts in relation to the monthly average balance of the principal amount guaranteed by the Group for the clients of Ping An Consumer Finance and the

financial institutions to develop consumer finance to help boost consumption and better address consumers&#8217; financial needs to support the aforementioned special initiatives, outlining targeted measures to refine consumer-finance policy,
including increasing financial support to meet the needs of both consumers and supply-side enterprises, appropriately relaxing credit limits and extend repayment terms to support large outlays on durable goods and long term services, encourage
creditworthy borrowers facing temporary financial distress to negotiate repayment arrangements and requiring financial institutions to launch special actions supporting <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">trade-in</FONT> programme for consumer goods

for inherent volatility, rather than being based on the highest single month&#8217;s average balance. As advised by the Company&#8217;s representatives, the Balance Guaranteed exhibits significant volatility and is challenging to estimate due to
unpredictable customer usage patterns, particularly concentrated borrowing activities where large volumes of customers may seek financing within short time period. Such short-term demand surges can elevate the balance to exceptionally high levels,
which would compel the Company to apply an unnecessarily elevated cap under conventional methodologies. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company believes the adoption
of a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">year-to-date</FONT></FONT> average monthly balance approach serves to smooth temporary fluctuations arising from timing differences or
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">one-off</FONT> events, ensuring the cap reflects typical operational requirements while avoiding an excessively high limit driven by transient peaks. The Company believes that by focusing on average utilisation with
a high-water-mark floor mechanism (where if the cap based on <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">January-to-September</FONT></FONT> averages exceeds that based on <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT

statements of the Group (subject to the Reaudit) were made up to December&nbsp;31, 2023 and the 2024 Annual Results have not been published and the Reaudit has not been completed. As disclosed in the April Announcement, the Company has engaged an
independent appraiser to assess the fair value of the Target Assets purchased through the Subject Trusts. Based on the Independent Investigation&#8217;s key findings, and taking into account the assessment provided by the independent appraiser and
the accounting adjustments made to the transactions relating to the Discretionary Trusts, at the time of the April Announcement, the Board estimates that, for the financial year ended December&nbsp;31, 2022, the Company&#8217;s consolidated total
assets will increase by no more than 0.5% and no substantive change to consolidated net profit. For the financial year ended December&nbsp;31, 2023, the Company&#8217;s consolidated total assets is expected to decrease by no more than 2% and
consolidated net profit to decrease by a range from 8% to 15% (i.e., from RMB83&nbsp;million to RMB155 million). The above unaudited figures are the Board&#8217;s estimation at the time of the April Announcement only and may be subject to further
changes in relation to the Reaudit. To the best knowledge of the Directors, the aforementioned information, particularly with regard to the current suspension of trading of the Shares, the measures taken and to be taken pursuant to the Resumption
Guidance and importantly, the Reaudit and the audit of the 2024 Annual Results, may give rise to material adverse changes in the financial position of the Group as at the Latest Practicable Date, given that the Company is still in the process of
conducting the Reaudit and the audit of the 2024 Annual Results as at the Latest Practicable Date and the result of which may retrospectively affect the financial position of the Group as at the Latest Practicable Date. </P>
