Important Notice
Kite, through one of its subsidiaries, KP EU C.V. (“KP EU” or the “Owner of Target Assets”), is contemplating to contribute an exclusive license to commercialization of KTE-C19, and relevant know-how for the purposes of commercialization of KTE-C19 in China mainland, Hong Kong and Macao (the “Subject” or the “Exclusive License”) to setup a joint venture (“JV”) (the “Proposed Transaction”). Kite, as the engaging party, engaged us to estimate the market value of the Subject as at December 31, 2016 (the “Valuation Date”).
We attach the valuation report in English in accordance with the Engagement Letter and its Variation Letter. The Engagement Letter (and the Variation Letter) is contained in Appendix 1. Please note this document is an English-language translation of the Chinese valuation report, prepared for your reference only. In the event of conflict of meaning between the English and Chinese versions, the Chinese version shall prevail.
Our work commenced on November 18, 2016 and was completed on January 5, 2017. We have not undertaken the responsibility to update our report for events, circumstances or information provided after that date. Notwithstanding this, we reserve the right, should we consider it necessary, to revise our estimate of market value in light of any information which existed at the Valuation Date but which becomes known to us subsequent to the date of this report.
In performing the valuation analysis, the information we used was primarily provided by the management of Kite and KP EU (the “Management”). We do not assume any responsibility or liability for the reliability of the information which shall be held by the Management. Details of our principal information sources are set out in the report and we have satisfied ourselves, so far as possible, that the information presented in our report is consistent with other information that was made available to us in the course of our work in accordance with the terms of our Engagement Letter.
This engagement is not an assurance engagement conducted in accordance with any generally accepted assurance standards and consequently no assurance opinion is expressed.
We must emphasize that the realization of any prospective financial information set out within our report is dependent on the continuing validity of the assumptions on which it is based. The assumptions will need to be reviewed and revised to reflect such changes in trading patterns, cost structures or the direction of the business as they emerge. We accept no responsibility for the realization of any prospective financial information. Actual results are likely to differ from those shown in the prospective financial information because events and circumstances frequently do not occur as expected, and the differences may be material.
Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, this valuation is solely for your own use, on a confidential basis, in connection with the purpose mentioned earlier, and is not to be quoted or referred to, in whole or in part, in any other connection without our prior written consent in each specific instance. We do not assume responsibility or liability for losses incurred by any party whatsoever as a result of the circulation, publication, reproduction or use of this report contrary to the provisions of this term.
Statement by the valuation professionals
Kite, through one of its subsidiaries, KP EU, is contemplating to contribute the Exclusive License to a to-be-setup JV.

—
We comply with the related laws, regulations and “Asset Valuation Guidelines of the People’s Republic of China” (“PRC Asset Valuation Guidelines”), and abide by the principles of independence, objectivity and impartiality. The contents of our valuation report are objective, and we are responsible for the reasonableness of the valuation conclusion based on the information obtained in the course of our valuation work.

It is the Owner of Target Assets’ responsibility to ensure the information provided are authentic, legitimate, and complete. It is your responsibility and responsibility of any other involved party who might have access to this report to use this report appropriately.
—
We have no existing or prospective interest in the Subject as stated in this report, nor with any involved party that are stated in this report. We are not biased for or against any involved party that are stated in this report.
—
We did not perform site inspection of the Subject and involved assets as stated in the valuation report. We have given the necessary attention to the legal ownership of the Subject and involved assets and verified the corresponding legal documentations. We disclosed our findings faithfully in this valuation report. In order to satisfy the requirements of issuing the report, we have requested the client and involved parties to complete necessary procedures to make the legal ownership uncontroversial.
—
Our analysis, judgments and conclusion are limited by the assumptions and conditions as stated in this report. The readers should consider the information stated in Section IX and XI of this report and their impact to the valuation conclusion.
—
Our work is to analyze, estimate and present our professional opinions on the market value of the Subject as at the Valuation Date. We do not accept responsibility of the decision made by the Engaging Party and involved parties, and the valuation conclusion only acts as a reference rather than as the guarantee of the realizable price.
