               OPERATING PRACTICES (CONTINUED)


               Product Responsibility (Continued)

              2.   Advertising and labeling

                   While  we engaged in large-scale marketing campaigns or advertisement  to promote our  business or
                   products, we also have designated sales representatives to meet with customers from time to time
                   to endorse our products and services. We ensure that all relevant sales and marketing efforts are
                   made in compliance with all applicable laws and standards enacted by the government and industry
                   associations.

                   During the Reporting Period, the Group complied with all relevant laws and regulations that have a
                   significant impact on the Group relating to health and safety, advertising, labelling and privacy matters.

               Anti-corruption


               The Group complies with all relevant anti-corruption laws and regulations, such as the Prevention of Bribery
               Ordinance (ԣ˟༡༤ૢԷ‘) of Hong Kong Laws, the Criminal Law of the People’s Republic of China (ʕ
               ശɛ͏΍ձ਷Αج‘) and the Anti-Money Laundering Law of the People’s Republic of China (ʕശɛ͏
               ΍ձ਷ˀݹ፺ج‘), and other relevant laws and regulations that are related to corruption, bribery, extortion,
               money-laundering and other frauds.

               To reinforce corporate governance, we have formed an audit committee, while hiring external lawyers and
               auditors to offer opinions on our financial reporting and other compliance issues. While we have complied
               with Stock Exchange’s corporate governance requirements on listing companies, we will continue to review
               and improve our internal control and corporate governance.

               We have abstracted relevant sections of the Prevention of Bribery Ordinance in Hong Kong into the code of
               conduct. Our employees are required to be aware of and declare if they have personal interests which may
               conflict with the company’s interests.


              Whistle-blowing policy


               The Group encourages its employees, suppliers, customers and other stakeholders to report any
               misconduct. We will promptly carry inspection and take necessary measures while protecting the identity of
               the whistleblower.

               During the Reporting Period, we had not identified any non-compliance in relation to corruption, bribery,
               extortion, fraud and money laundering, which had a significant impact on the Group. The Group will regularly
               review its internal anti-corruption system and improve it when necessary.
