RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS
Legal Proceedings
In October 2020,IsZo Capital LP ("Claimant") commenced legal proceedings against us and other parties in the High Court of Justice of the British Virgin Islands of the Eastern Caribbean Supreme Court. The claims contested,among other things,that the private placement previously announced by us on October 5,2020 was invalid and should be set aside,and the Claimant also seeks to require us hold a special meeting regarding the election of directors. In an order made ex parte,without notice to us,the Court granted the Claimant's request for a preliminary injunction enjoining us from taking certain corporate actions pending additional hearings to be held before the Court. In a Court hearing subsequent to the order,we have provided undertakings to the Court that we will continue the preservation of the position until the Court has the opportunity to consider additional details and evidence related to the claims. We are currently unable to estimate the potential loss,if any,associated with the resolution of such lawsuit,if it proceeds. We anticipate that we will continue to be a target for lawsuits in the future. There can be no assurance that we will be able to prevail in our defense or reverse any unfavorable judgment on appeal,and we may decide to settle lawsuits on unfavorable terms. Any adverse outcome of these cases,including any plaintiffs' appeal of the judgment in these cases,could result in payments of substantial monetary damages or fines,or changes to our business practices,and thus have a material adverse effect on our business,financial condition,results of operation,cash flows and reputation. The litigation process may utilize a significant portion of our cash resources and divert management's attention from the day-to-day operations of our company,all of which could harm our business. We also may be subject to claims for indemnification related to these matters,and we cannot predict the impact that indemnification claims may have on our business or financial results.
For more details on the risks related to our business,please refer to "Item 3-Key Information -D Risk Factors-Risks Related to Our Business" on our 2019 annual report included in the Form 20-F.

Notes:
(a) The types of our projects are based on our development plans or certificates issued by the relevant authority subject to adjustment upon its final approval.
(b) The gross floor area is based on the assumption that we will receive M-0 zoning approval for the entire Inno Valley site prior to its redevelopment. If we do not receive the M-0 zoning approval,we will be required to develop Inno Valley under the M-1 zoning requirements. In that case,appropriate adjustments to our plan will have to be made. The existing gross floor area of Inno Valley is 41,927 square meters.According to "Shenzhen Industrial Block Range Line Management Measures",the location of Nam Tai Inno Valley is within the designated industrial block range,of which the government strictly controls the proportion of M-0 zoning on industrial land. Therefore,the proportion of M-0 zoning,floor area ratio and construction area of Inno Valley are subject to the final approval of the government which is uncertain at this time. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to develop Inno Valley according to the floor area currently disclosed.
(c) The figures are subject to adjustment upon the final approval of the relevant authority.
(d) Properties completed mean that after the registration of completion acceptance,the constructions of the properties are completed and the internal acceptance criteria are met.
(e) As of September 30,the construction of Towers 1,6 and 7 of Nam Tai Inno Park was completed.
Properties Under Development
The table below sets forth certain information of our property projects under development as of September 30,comprising properties under development with the land use right certificate and construction permits obtained but the construction work was still in progress.

ABOUT NAM TAI PROPERTY INC.
We are a real estate developer and operator,mainly conducting business in Mainland China. Our main land resources are located in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area ("Greater Bay Area") and Wuxi,of which the three plots of land in Shenzhen will be developed into the technology parks of Nam Tai Inno Park,Nam Tai Technology Center and Nam Tai Inno Valley. We plan to build these technology parks into landmark projects in the region,and provide high-quality industrial offices,industrial service spaces and supporting dormitories to the park tenants. Based on the experience of developing and operating technology parks,and the industrial relationship network accumulated over the past 40 years,we have also exported the operation mode of technology parks to other industrial properties using the asset-light model to rent industrial properties for repositioning and business invitation. We will also expand the commercial and residential property business in China as an auxiliary development strategy of the Company. As the growth prospects of China maintain,we will actively seize development opportunities in the Greater Bay Area and other first- and second-tier cities in China,and continue to strengthen and expand the business of industrial real estate,and commercial and residential properties.
Nam Tai Property Inc. is a corporation registered in the British Virgin Islands and listed on the New York Stock Exchange (Symbol: "NTP"). Please refer to the Nam Tai website (www.namtai.com) or the SEC website (www.sec.gov) for our press releases and financial results.
