    1. Period of reduction in shareholding: Reduction in shareholding, if by way of centralised bidding through the stock exchange, will be conducted during the 6-month period after 15 trading days from the date of this announcement (except no disposal of shares will take place during the black-out period as prescribed by laws and regulations).
    2. Price of A shares to be disposed: Determined according to the market price prevailing at the time of disposal.
  1. Relevant undertakings and their performance

Each of the Relevant Persons undertakes that the number of A shares to be disposed of by him/her per year during his/her term of office will not exceed 25% of the total number of shares held by him/her in the Company, and he/she will not dispose of any of his/her shares in the Company within 6 months after the date of his/her cessation of employment with the Company.

As of the date of this announcement, each of the Relevant Persons has strictly complied with the above undertaking. The proposed disposal of A shares in the Company does not violate such lock-up undertaking. They will continue to strictly comply with the relevant requirements governing reduction in shareholding and the relevant undertaking.

IV. Potential risks to the Company

As of the date of the announcement, the Relevant Persons are neither controlling shareholders nor actual controllers of the Company. The proposed reduction in shareholding is solely for the purpose of satisfying the fund arrangement requirements of the respective individuals. Since the number of shares subject to the proposed disposal by the Relevant Persons and the respective percentages these bear to the total share capital of the Company are relatively insignificant, such reduction, if implemented, will neither lead to risk of change in control of the Company, nor have any effect on the corporate governance structure and the future sustainable operation of the Company.

The Relevant Persons will determine whether to proceed with the proposed disposal according to factors such as market conditions and share price of the Company, etc. Since there is uncertainty relating to the timing of the proposed disposal and price of shares to be disposed of and whether the proposed disposal can be completed as contemplated, the Company will make further announcement(s) to disclose the progress of the proposed disposal in accordance with the relevant requirements.
