whatsoever for any loss howsoever arising from or in reliance upon the whole or any part of the contents of this
|

announcement.
|
||
Unless otherwise defined in this announcement, capitalized terms used herein shall have the same meanings as those
|
||
defined in the prospectus dated June 28, 2024 (the “Prospectus ”) issued by Fangzhou Inc. (the “Company ”).
|
||
This announcement is for information purposes only and does not constitute an invitation or offer to acquire, purchase
|
||
or subscribe for securities. This announcement is not a prospectus. Potential investors should read the Prospectus for
|
||
detailed information about the Company and the Global Offering described below before deciding whether or not to
|
||
invest in the Offer Shares thereby being offered. Any investment decision in relation to the Offer Shares should be
|
||
taken solely in reliance on the information provided in the Prospectus.
|
||
This announcement is not for release, publication or distribution, directly or indirectly, in or into the United
|
||
States (including its territories and possessions, any state of the United States and the District of Columbia), or
|
||
any jurisdiction where such release, publication or distribution is prohibited by law. This announcement does not
|
||
constitute or form a part of any offer or solicitation to purchase or subscribe for securities in Hong Kong, the United
|
||
States or any other jurisdiction. The securities mentioned herein have not been and will not be registered under the
|
||
United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act ”), or securities law of any state or other
|
||
jurisdiction in the United States, and may not be offered, sold, pledged or otherwise transferred within the United
|
||
States or to, or for the account or benefit of U.S. persons, except in transactions exempt from, or not subject to, the
|
||
registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and in compliance with any applicable state securities laws. The
|
||
Offer Shares are being offered and sold (1) solely to qualified institutional buyers as defined in Rule 144A under the
|
||
U.S. Securities Act pursuant to an exemption from registration under the U.S. Securities Act and (2) outside the United
|
||
States in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act. There will be no public offer
|
||
of the securities in the United States. The Company has not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Investment
|
||
Company Act of 1940, as amended.
|
||
In connection with the Global Offering, Citigroup Global Markets Asia Limited as stabilizing manager (the
|
||
“Stabilizing Manager ”) or any person acting for it may, to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulatory
|
||
requirements of Hong Kong or elsewhere, make purchases, over-allocate or effect transactions in the market or
|
||
otherwise take such stabilizing action(s) with a view to stabilizing or supporting the market price of the Shares at a
|
||
level higher than that which might otherwise prevail for a limited period after the Listing Date. Any such stabilizing
|
||
action will be effected in compliance with all applicable laws and regulatory requirements, including the Securities and
|
||
Futures (Price Stabilizing) Rules under the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Chapter 571 of the Laws of Hong Kong).
|
||
However, there is no obligation on the Stabilizing Manager or any person acting for it to conduct any such stabilizing
|
||
action. Such stabilizing action, if taken, (i) will be conducted at the absolute discretion of the Stabilizing Manager or
|
||
any person acting for it, (ii) may be discontinued at any time and (iii) is required to be brought to an end within 30
|
||
days after the last day for lodging applications under the Hong Kong Public Offering.
|
||
Prospective investors should note that no stabilizing action can be taken to support the price of the Shares for longer
|
||
than the stabilization period, which will begin on the Listing Date and is expected to expire on Saturday, August 3,
|
||
2024, being the 30th day after the last day for lodging applications under the Hong Kong Public Offering. After this
|
||
date, when no further stabilizing action may be taken, demand for the Shares, and therefore the price of the Shares,
|
||
could fall.
|
||
The obligations of the Hong Kong Underwriters under the Hong Kong Underwriting Agreement to subscribe for, and
|
||
to procure subscribers for, the Hong Kong Offer Shares are subject to termination by the Overall Coordinators (for
|
||
themselves and on behalf of the Hong Kong Underwriters) if certain events shall occur prior to 8:00 a.m. (Hong Kong
|
||
time) on the Listing Date. Such grounds are set out in the section headed “Underwriting ” in the Prospectus.
