<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:12pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Noah Holdings Limited Announces US$50 Million Share Repurchase Program </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">SHANGHAI, June&nbsp;29, 2016 /PRNewswire/ &#151; Noah Holdings Limited (&#147;Noah&#148; or the &#147;Company&#148;) (NYSE: NOAH), a leading wealth and asset
management service provider with a focus on global services for high net worth individuals and enterprises in China, today announced that its board of directors has approved a share repurchase program (&#147;Share Repurchase Program&#148;),
effective July&nbsp;8, 2016, which authorizes the Company to repurchase up to&nbsp;US$50 million&nbsp;worth of its issued and outstanding American Depositary Shares over the course of one year. The Share Repurchase Program extends the Company&#146;s
previous share repurchase program that was effective for 12 months from July&nbsp;8, 2015. &#147;Given the continued volatility of the market, we believe the Share Repurchase Program helps us protect shareholders&#146; value. We see continued
strengths in our business and continue to believe that our shares are undervalued,&#148; commented Kenny Lam, Noah&#146;s Group President. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The proposed

conditions and in accordance with applicable rules and regulations. Noah&#146;s board of directors will review the Share Repurchase Program periodically, and may authorize adjustment of its terms and size at its discretion. </P>
