adjustment and over-allotment option. Subject to the level of oversubscription in the Hong Kong Public Offering and pursuant to the claw back mechanism as described in the prospectus issued by the Company in&nbsp;Hong Kong&nbsp;dated&nbsp;4
March&nbsp;2021, the total number of shares available under the Hong Kong Public Offering could be adjusted to up to a maximum of 15,146,000&nbsp;Offer Shares, representing approximately 50% of the Offer Shares initially available under the
Offering. In addition, the Company expects to grant the international underwriters an over-allotment option to require the Company to issue up to an additional 4,544,000 shares in the International Offering, representing approximately&nbsp;15% of
the total number of&nbsp;Offer Shares&nbsp;initially available under the Offering. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The offer price for the Hong Kong Public Offering (the &#147;Hong Kong
Offer Price&#148;) will be no more than&nbsp;HK$251.8&nbsp;per share (the &#147;Maximum&nbsp;Offer Price&#148;). The offer price for the International Offering tranche of the Offering (the &#147;International&nbsp;Offer Price&#148;) may be set
higher than the Maximum&nbsp;Offer Price. The Company will set the International&nbsp;Offer Price&nbsp;on or about 9&nbsp;March 2021&nbsp;Hong Kong time by taking into consideration, among other factors, the closing price of the ADSs on the NYSE on
the last trading day on or before&nbsp;8 March&nbsp;2021 and investor demand during the marketing process. The final Hong Kong Offer Price will be set at the lower of the final International&nbsp;Offer Price&nbsp;and the Maximum&nbsp;Offer
Price&nbsp;of&nbsp;HK$251.8&nbsp;per share. The shares will be traded in board lots of 100 shares. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company plans to use the net proceeds from the

corporate&nbsp;purposes. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Fully&nbsp;Electronic Application Process for the Hong Kong Public Offering </B></P>
