Graphex Group Limited (NYSE American: GRFX | HKSE: 6128).

Graphex Group Limited (the “Company” or “we”) is an issuer with its ordinary shares listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (“HKSE”) and American Depository Shares (“ADSs”) that are traded on the NYSE American under the trading symbol “GRFX”.

Reference is made to the Report on Form 6-K filed by the Company on 3 December, 2024 regarding a report a material events regarding certain proposed transactions (collectively, the “Proposed Transactions”): (1) a proposed share consolidation of the ordinary shares of the Company (“Proposed Share Consolidation”); (2) a proposed change in the lot size for trading on the HKSE (“Proposed Change in Board Lot Size”); (3) a proposed increase in the authorized capital of the Company (“Proposed Increase in Authorized Share Capital”); (4) a proposed rights issuance to the holders of the ordinary shares of the Company on the basis of three (3) rights shares (“Rights Shares”) for every one (1) consolidated share held on the record date of such offering on a non-underwritten basis (“Proposed Rights Issue”).

This Report supplements the information previously provided regarding the Proposed Transactions by providing a copy of the Circular of the Company dated 27 January 2025 (the “Circular”) that includes the Letter from the Board of Directors of the Company, the Letter from the independent Board Committee of the Company, the letter from the Independent Financial Adviser to the Company, and the Notice of the extraordinary general meeting of the Company to be convened to consider and, if thought fit, approve, among other things, the Proposed Transactions.

The following provisions were provided in the Circular regarding the ADS:

The Rights Share(s) may not be offered or sold in the United States, to any U.S. Person as defined by the Securities Act, or to any of the holders of the American Depositary Shares that are listed for trading on the NYSE American unless there is a registration of such securities under the Securities Act or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Act is available. The Company does not intend to make any such registration.

The Rights Issue and the Right Shares of the Company issuable upon the exercise of such share rights have not been registered under the Securities Act of, or any securities laws of any state in, the United States. No securities of the Company may be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the benefit of, U.S. persons absent registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements. As provided in registration statement on Form F-1 that was filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and declared effective on 16 August 2022, and under the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement, the Company may exclude the ADS Holders for newly issued Rights Shares. The Company does not intend to offer the Rights Issue to the ADS Holders.

As provided in the Deposit Agreement, the Depositary may to the extent deemed by it to be lawful and practical sell the nil-paid rights and distribute the net proceeds of that sale to the ADS Holders entitled to those proceeds. The Depositary will use reasonable efforts to sell the nil-paid rights in proportion to the number of ADS held by the applicable ADS Holders and pay the net proceeds to such ADS Holders otherwise entitled to the nil-paid rights that were sold, upon an averaged or other practical basis without regard to any distinctions among such ADS Holders because of exchange restrictions or the date of delivery of any ADS or otherwise. The Depositary may enter into any arrangements with the Company or persons acting on behalf of the Company to effect the orderly disposal or such nil-paid rights. There is no assurance that the nil-paid rights may be sold at a price greater than the related expenses allocable to ADS Holders. To the extent the nil-paid rights are not disposed of, the Depositary shall permit the nil-paid rights to lapse unexercised and the ADS Holders will not be entitled to any compensation or distribution. An ADS Holders that is not a U.S. person that would like to participate in the Rights Issue and invest in the Right Share(s) (whether in nil-paid or fully-paid form) would need to convert their ADS to Shares or Consolidated Shares (as the case may be) prior to the record date for the Rights Issue specified in this circular.

The Company expects to further supplement this Report by providing a copy of the Notice for the Benefit of Owners of the ADSs and a form of Voting Card for the ADS.

On 27, January 2025 the Company provided an announcement (the “Announcement”) under the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the HKSE (“Listing Rules”), that included a copy of the Circular.
