and outstanding shares of the Company, including Yi Zhang, All Brilliance Investments Limited, Apex Pride Global Limited, Hopeful World
Company Limited, and Acton Town International Limited (together, the “Requisitioning Shareholders”), requesting the directors
of the Company to convene an extraordinary general meeting (the “EGM”) of the Company (the “Requisition”) to provide
explanations to the shareholders of the Company on matters as described below:

the resignation of each of the former directors specified in the SEC Report. |
| 2 | The justification for establishing new subsidiaries of the

legal means” in the SEC Report. |
