Regulatory classification The lease exceeds the 5% but falls below the 25% threshold of the applicable percentage ratios under the GEM Listing Rules, making it a discloseable transaction subject to reporting and announcement requirements under Chapter 19.

The rental terms were reached at arm’s length with reference to prevailing market rates.
