CONTENTS

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Nam Tai Property Inc. (the “Company”), a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, is providing the following updates.

On-Shore Access and Control

As previously disclosed, the Company has lawfully obtained the corporate seals (more commonly known as chops) and business licenses of all of its subsidiaries (the “on-shore subsidiaries”) in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”).

Registration of Change of Control

As a result of obtaining the chops, the Company has been able to register its Chief Executive Officer, Yu Chunhua (“Mr. Yu”), as the legal representative (the “Legal Representative”) for certain of its on-shore subsidiaries with the relevant Administrations for Market Regulation (“AMRs”), but it has not yet been able to register Mr. Yu as the Legal Representative for other of its on-shore subsidiaries.

The Company believes that Kaisa Group Holdings Limited (“Kaisa”) may be interfering with or challenging the registration process. The Company continues to evaluate next steps and is working to promptly register Mr. Yu as the Legal Representative for its subsidiaries with the AMR, but it cannot make assurances as to how long it will take to secure registration. The registration of Mr. Yu as the Legal Representative is important to obtain access to all bank accounts, books and records, and resources of the Company’s subsidiaries.

Lack of On-Shore Control

Mr. Yu is taking actions to gain access to the bank accounts and books and records of the on-shore subsidiaries for which he has been registered as the Legal Representative. Mr. Yu has notified major banks regarding the change of the Legal Representative, and obtained access to certain of the bank accounts of the on-shore subsidiaries. However, currently, the Company and reconstituted Board do not have full control over the on-shore subsidiaries, or access to the on-shore subsidiaries’ books and records.

PRC Litigation

As previously disclosed in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Wang Jiabiao (“Mr. Wang”), a former executive of the Company, filed a claim in the PRC challenging the Company’s resolutions removing him from positions at the Company and its on-shore subsidiaries. In April 2023, the litigation was withdrawn. Mr. Wang is no longer involved with the operations of the Company’s on-shore subsidiaries and is no longer occupying the Company’s offices.
