CONVENTIONS THAT APPLY TO THIS ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 20-F

Unless we indicate otherwise, references in this report to:

ii

Our Company is a holding company incorporated in the BVI. As a holding company with no material operations of our own, we conduct our operations mainly in Peru, France, Hong Kong and Macau, through our subsidiaries (collectively, the “Operating Subsidiaries”). See Part I – Item 4 on the information of our Operating Subsidiaries.

As our Company is a holding company incorporated in the BVI and not a Chinese operating company, our operations in Hong Kong, Macau and China are conducted by our subsidiaries based in Hong Kong, Macau and China. Investors in our Company hold interests in the BVI holding company and do not directly hold equity interests in the Operating Subsidiaries. This structure involves unique risks to investors. See Part I – Item 3 for a discussion of risks facing the Company as a result of this structure. We may be subject to unique risks due to uncertainty of the interpretation and the application of the PRC laws and regulations, including but not limited to the cybersecurity review and regulatory review of overseas listing of our ADSs through an offshore holding company. We are also subject to the risks of uncertainty about any future actions of the Chinese government or authorities in Hong Kong and Macau in this regard.

Should the Chinese government choose to exercise significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business, they may intervene in or influence our operations. Such governmental actions:

The PRC legal system is based on written statutes and their legal interpretations by the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress. Previous court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value. Since 1979, the PRC government has been developing a comprehensive system of commercial laws, and considerable progress has been made in introducing laws and regulations dealing with economic matters such as foreign investment, corporate organization and governance, commerce, taxation and trade.

The PRC legal system is constantly evolving and may change quickly with little advance notice, and the PRC government may promulgate new laws and regulations in the future that may cover operations in Hong Kong. If we are deemed not to comply with these requirements, we may be subject to fines and other administrative penalties imposed by relevant PRC authorities. Any change in foreign investment regulations, and other laws, regulations and policies in China or any punishment imposed or actions taken by the PRC government for our violation of such regulations or policies could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of the securities we registered for sale and could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer our securities to investors or cause the value of our ADSs to significantly decline or be worthless.

Any failure to respond to changes in the regulatory environment in China could materially and adversely affect our business and impede our ability to continue our operations.

In addition, our ADSs may be prohibited from trading on a national exchange or over-the-counter under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (the “HFCA Act”) (as amended by the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, which was enacted on December 29, 2022) if the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (the “PCAOB”) is unable to inspect our auditors for two consecutive years. Our auditor has been inspected by the PCAOB on a regular basis, and our auditor is not subject to the determinations announced by the PCAOB on December 16, 2021, which determinations were vacated on December 15, 2022. If trading in our ADSs is prohibited under the HFCA Act in the future because the PCAOB determines that it cannot inspect or fully investigate our auditor at such future time, Nasdaq may determine to delist our ADSs and trading in our ADSs could be prohibited. On August 26, 2022, the PCAOB signed SOP Agreements with the China Securities Regulatory Commission and China’s Ministry of Finance. The SOP Agreements established a specific, accountable framework to make possible complete inspections and investigations by the PCAOB of audit firms based in mainland China and Hong Kong, as required under U.S. law. On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB announced that it was able to secure complete access to inspect and investigate PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong completely in 2022. The PCAOB vacated its previous 2021 determinations that the PCAOB was unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong. However, whether the PCAOB will continue to be able to satisfactorily conduct inspections of PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong is subject to uncertainty and depends on a number of factors out of our, and our auditor’s, control.
