The aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Bonds was US$100 million. As of the date of this announcement, US$100 million of the principal amount of the Convertible Bonds has been converted into approximately 28,794,100 Issued Conversion Shares, US$20 million of the outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Bonds was redeemed by the Company on 18 November 2020, and US$20 million of the outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Bonds was redeemed by the Company on 18 May 2022, being the maturity date of the Convertible Bonds prior to its extension pursuant to the 2022 Deed of Extension.
