Open Letter to Antelope Enterprise Shareholders from Chairman and CEO Will Zhang

CHENGDU,China,March 13,2023 -- Antelope Enterprise Holdings Limited (NASDAQ Capital Market: AEHL) ("Antelope Enterprise" or the "Company"),which operates KylinCloud,a leading livestreaming social ecommerce platform with 300,000+ anchors and influencers in China,today announced the following Open Letter to the Company's shareholders from Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Weilai 'Will' Zhang.

To Our Valued Shareholders:

First and foremost,we would like to express our gratitude to all of our shareholders for your continued support of Antelope Enterprise. Beginning in 2020,the Company has been engaged in a major strategic transformation of its business operations,and we welcome this opportunity to provide you with an update of our current activities as well as our vision for the future.

Divestiture of the Ceramic Tiles Business

As we had reported in our previous press releases and earnings reports,China's real estate sector has experienced a significant slowdown over the past few years which was exacerbated by the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. These challenging market conditions caused a significant fall-off in the Company's ceramic tile building materials business. Consequently,the Company enacted a strategic transformation to pivot towards high growth technology areas which included the acquisition of a livestreaming social ecommerce business. As a key element of this transformation,in December 2022 the Company's Board of Directors unanimously agreed to divest of its legacy ceramic tile building materials business. A special meeting of the Company's shareholders was held on February 21,2023 and the shareholders approved the sale of this business which is expected to close pending satisfaction of customary closing conditions. The divesture of the Company's ceramic tile building materials business,which has been experiencing operating losses,will reduce the Company's cash outlays,and its sale proceeds of $8.5 million payable over a four-year period will help to fund the growth of our new livestreaming social ecommerce business.

Laser Focus on KylinCloud,Our High Growth Livestreaming Social Ecommerce Company

As a result of our corporate transformation,we are now devoting our full resources and energies to developing our 51% owned subsidiary,Hainan Kylin Cloud Services Technology Co.,Ltd. ("KylinCloud"),which operates a leading social and livestreaming social ecommerce platform in China. As a first mover in the livestreaming space,KylinCloud provides turnkey livestreaming marketing and broadcasting services to consumer brand companies by matching companies' brand characteristics and products with our 300,000+ anchors and influencers. This results in live broadcasting sales presentations that generate significantly increased sales and profitability for these companies. We believe that KylinCloud has the core competencies and competitive advantages to sustain its leading market share and potentially dominate this key sales channel as a pure play in this sector.

China's Livestreaming Social Ecommerce Sector

We believe that livestreaming social ecommerce is becoming China's growth engine for consumer brands companies since it leverages the content power of livestreaming broadcasts to engage customers and increase product sales. In our view,livestreaming social ecommerce is revolutionizing traditional marketing as a core sales and marketing channel where consumer brand companies interactively relate with consumers on a broad scale. According to China's Ministry of Commerce,in 2022 there were 120 million live broadcasts with a total of 1.1 trillion view and more than 95 million product categories sold; this resulted in livestreaming ecommerce having generated approximately RMB 3.4 trillion (US$ 500 billion). It is expected that livestreaming ecommerce will comprise an ever-increasing percentage of China's ecommerce sales in the years ahead spurred by a consumer ecosystem that includes a young demographic and their high usage rate of mobile devices. We are confident that China's livestreaming social ecommerce sector will experience high double-digit growth for many years to come.

New Governance and New Culture

Over the past few months,we added four new members to the Company's Board who are highly experienced and knowledgeable about the digital economy,and whom we believe will contribute valuable guidance in fulfilling our strategic growth plan. Most importantly,our young,energetic and creative personnel across all staffing positions embody a very strong work ethic and a vibrant team culture that is highly goal oriented. Our Board,senior management and staff are all aligned and committed to rapidly grow Antelope Enterprise to achieve scale,sustain our leading market position and maximize shareholder value.

My Personal Commitment to the Company

As was publicly announced,I invested my personal capital in the Company as a testimony to my firm belief in the future of KylinCloud and the tremendous market opportunity ahead of us. I believe that we have in place the financial resources,digital IT infrastructure and operating infrastructure to achieve sustainable growth. Further,we see the opportunity to leverage our experience and knowhow and extend it towards exploring select international markets such as Southeast Asia and the U.S.

As the newly appointed Chairman of the Board and CEO,I am deeply grateful and passionate about this unique market opportunity,and I committed to lead and inspire our team to achieve resounding success in this sector. I have a long track record in commercializing and scaling growth companies and am genuinely excited by our unique business model,entrepreneurial spirit and execution capabilities that I believe willcreate long-term value for all of our stakeholders.
