LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The above guarantees to be provided by the Company and its subsidiaries are arranged according to the current business demands. In the event of any possible change, within the total amount of guarantees that a single guarantor provides to the entities to be guaranteed under the guarantee plan, such guarantor can adjust the guarantee amount to any of the entities to be guaranteed, or provides guarantee to any possible entities to be guaranteed outside the guarantee plan.

It is estimated that the aggregate external guarantees to be provided by the Company and its subsidiaries in 2022 will amount to RMB188.2 billion, all of which will be provided to the subsidiaries and affiliated companies of the Company. This amount of the aggregate external guarantees accounts for 13.4% of audited net assets of the Company as at 31 December 2021.

According to the Shanghai Listing Rules and the Articles of Association, if the Company intends to provide guarantees to the entities to be guaranteed with debt to asset ratio exceeds 70%, such guarantee plan is subject to approval by the Shareholders in a general meeting. The debt to asset ratio of some entities to be guaranteed under the Provision of Guarantee for Subsidiaries and Affiliated Companies and Relevant Authorization to the Board exceed 70%. Therefore, it is subject to approval by the Shareholders in a general meeting.

As at the date of this circular, certain guaranteed in the Provision of Guarantee for Subsidiaries and Affiliated Companies and Relevant Authorization to the Board, including CNODC INTERNATIONAL HOLDING LTD., Mazoon Petrogas (B.V.I) Ltd., AO Petrokazakhstan Kumkol Resources, CNPC International Aktobe Petroleum Joint Stock Company and Trans-Asia Pipeline (Hong Kong) Company Limited are non wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company. CNPC, the Company’s controlling Shareholder, directly or indirectly holds 10% or more of the equity interests in the above subsidiaries of the Company. As a result, the above subsidiaries of the Company constitute connected subsidiaries of the Company under Chapter 14A of the Hong Kong Listing Rules. Therefore, the provision of guarantee from the Company to CNODC INTERNATIONAL HOLDING LTD. and from the non-connected subsidiary of the Company to Mazoon Petrogas (B.V.I) Ltd. constitutes connected transactions of the Company under Chapter 14A of the Hong Kong Listing Rules (the “Connected GuaranteeTransactions”). However, due to the fact that all of CNODC INTERNATIONAL HOLDING LTD., Mazoon Petrogas (B.V.I) Ltd., AO Petrokazakhstan Kumkol Resources, CNPC International Aktobe Petroleum Joint Stock Company and Trans-Asia Pipeline (Hong Kong) Company Limited are the subsidiaries of a connected subsidiary of the Company, the provision of guarantee from CNODC INTERNATIONAL HOLDING LTD. to Mazoon Petrogas (B.V.I) Ltd., AO Petrokazakhstan Kumkol Resources, CNPC International Aktobe Petroleum Joint Stock Company and Trans-Asia Pipeline (Hong Kong) Company Limited does not constitute connected transactions under Chapter 14A, pursuant to Rule 14A.17 of the Hong Kong Listing Rules.

We refer to the circular of the Company dated 15 September 2020 in relation to the comprehensive products and services agreement entered into between CNPC and the Company. The transactions under the comprehensive products and services agreement and the annual cap therefore have been approved by the Shareholders on 5 November 2020 at the general meeting of the Company. The Connected Guarantee Transactions will be conducted within the scope of the above agreement. As such, the Connected Guarantee Transactions are not subject to separate announcement and shareholders approval requirements under the Hong Kong Listing Rules. In addition, the guarantee under the Provision of Guarantee for Subsidiaries and Affiliated Companies and Relevant Authorization to the Board will not constitute a discloseable transaction under the Hong Kong Listing Rules. The Company proposed the resolution for Shareholder’s approval pursuant to the requirements of the Shanghai Listing Rules and the Articles of Association.

This resolution was approved by the Board on 31 March 2022. In accordance to the Shanghai Listing Rules and the Articles of Association, an ordinary resolution will be proposed at the AGM to approve the plan for guarantees to be provided to subsidiaries and affiliated companies of the Company with an aggregate amount of RMB188.2 billion in 2022, and authorize the Board to consider and approve the matters relating to Provision of Guarantee for Subsidiaries and Affiliated Companies and Relevant Authorization to the Board.
