FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2018
Characteristics of GEM of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Stock Exchange")

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.
