The Subject Shares shall be released from the lock-up conditions contemplated under this Section 5.09 (the “Lock-up”) according to the following terms and conditions:

(a)In respect to the First Batch Shares, if during the period commencing from July 1^st, 2025, to June 30, 2026 (the “First Operational Year”), the Seller’s confirmation results will confirm that the JV reached its First Year Operational Target, i.e. RMB 20 million, the number of the First Batch Shares which shall be released from the lock-up shall be calculated according to the following formula: First Batch Shares x (the JV’s actual net profits after tax achieved during the First Operational Year – RMB 15,000,000)/RMB 45,000,000. To clarify, if the result of the foregoing formula exceeds one, which means that the JV’s actual net profits after tax achieved during the First Operational Year exceed RMB 60,000,000, all of the First Batch Shares shall be released from the lock-up, but except for this, there are no additional rewards whatsoever, for the excess profits.

(b)In respect to the Second Batch Shares, if during the period commencing from July 1, 2026, to June 30, 2027 (the “Second Operational Year”), the Seller’s confirmation results will confirm that the JV has achieved the Second Year Operational Target, i.e. RMB 20 million, the number of the Second Batch Shares which shall be released from the lock-up shall be calculated according to the following formula: Second Batch Shares x (the JV’s actual net profits after tax achieved during the Second Operational Year – RMB 15,000,000)/RMB 45,000,000. To clarify, if the result of the foregoing formula exceeds one, which means that the JV’s actual net profits after tax achieved during the Second Operational Year exceed RMB 60,000,000, then the Purchaser has the right to unlock a certain portion of the locked First Batch Shares, which is the result of the following formula: First Batch Shares x(the JV’s actual net profits after tax achieved during the Second Operational Year – RMB 60,000,000)/RMB 45,000,000. If the remaining amount of the locked-up shares from the First Batch Shares is less than the number resulting from the calculation formula, then the Purchaser is only entitled to unlock the remaining shares. No additional rewards whatsoever, for the excess profits will be made by the Seller.

(c)In respect to the Third Batch Shares, if during the period commencing from July 1, 2027, to June 30, 2028 (the “Third Operational Year”), the Seller’s confirmation results will confirm that the JV’s net profits after tax exceed RMB 20 million (the “Third Year Operational Target”), the number of the Third Batch Shares which shall be released from lock-up shall be calculated according to the following formula: Third Batch Shares x (the JV’s actual net profits after tax achieved during the Third Operational Year – RMB 15,000,000)/RMB 45,000,000.

To clarify, if the result of the foregoing formula exceeds one, which means that the JV’s actual net profits after tax achieved during the Third Operational Year exceed RMB 60,000,000, then the Purchaser has the right to unlock a certain portion of the locked First Batch Shares and/or the Second Batch Shares, the number of which shall be calculated according to the following formula: First Batch Shares or Second Batch Shares x (the JV’s actual net profits after tax achieved during the Third Operational Year – RMB 60,000,000)/RMB 45,000,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the amount of the remaining locked shares from the Second Batch Shares, or the aggregate number together with the locked-up First Batch Shares, is less than the number resulting from the calculation formula, then the Purchaser is only entitled to unlock the remaining shares. No additional rewards whatsoever, for the excess profits will be made by the Seller.

(d)if during any of the Operational Year within the Maximum Five Year Operational Period, which follow the year in which any of the First Year Operational Target, the Second Year Operational Target and/or the Third Year Operational Target were not met, the JV ’s net profits after tax exceed RMB 20 million, then the Purchaser has the right to unlock the Subject Shares that had been issued but not released from the Lock-up (the “Immediately Preceding Unreleased Shares”). For clarity purposes, there may be a gap year or years within the Maximum Five Year Operational Period in which profit targets are not achieved. For example, if the JV has not achieved all of its First Year Target, the Second Year Target and the Third Year Target, but in the fourth operational year the JV’s net profits after tax exceed RMB 20 million, subject to the confirmation set forth in Section 5.10, then the Purchaser has the right to unlock the Immediately Preceding Locked Shares, that is in this example, the First Batch Shares, according to the following formula: Immediately Preceding batch of Subject Shares (i.e., First Batch Shares, but may be the Second Batch Shares, or Third Batch Shares, depending on the actual situation outside of this example) x (the JV’s actual net profits after tax achieved during the fourth operational year – RMB 15,000,000)/RMB 45,000,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the remaining amount of the locked-up shares from the First Batch Shares (or the aggregate number together with the actually issued but not released shares, depending on the actual situation outside of this example) is less than the number resulting from the calculation formula, then the Purchaser is only entitled to unlock the remaining shares. No additional rewards whatsoever, for the excess profits will be made by the Seller.

Section 5.10Confirmation of the Operational Targets.

(a)The Parties hereby agree that the Seller shall have the right, at its own discretion, to check and confirm whether any of the Operational Targets have been achieved by reviewing the management accounts of the JV and the operational expenses paid by the JV to the Seller’s group companies, if any. The Seller shall provide its decision in the form of a confirmation letter (the “Confirmation Letter”) to the Purchaser within 30 days, following the end of the applicable Operational Year. The Seller undertakes and covenants that, within ten days upon issuance of the Confirmation Letter evidencing the satisfaction of the Operational Target during the applicable Operational Year, the Seller shall unlock the relevant portion of the Subject Shares.

(b)The Parties agree that certain businesses of the JV will be allocated to Shanghai IT. The net of tax revenues generated from such business for tax planning purposes, shall be counted towards the achievement of the Operational Targets in each of the corresponding Operational Year.

Section 5.11Voting Obligation.

The Purchaser agrees that for so long as it holds Class A Shares or ADSs which entitle the Purchaser to the voting rights on the matters subject to the Seller’s shareholders’ voting during its general meetings, the Purchaser agrees to vote on all matters in the same manner as the Incsight Limited, a British Virgin Islands company. To this end, the Purchaser agrees to issue Incsight Limited a voting proxy and execute the voting agreement attached hereto as the Exhibit A, and/or submit its votes, as directed by Incsight Limited, through the Company’s depository bank in case the Purchaser holds ADSs during the time of the general meeting. In case of the Purchaser’s breach and any circumvention of the voting obligations hereunder, the Purchaser agrees that as the fair remedy for such breach the Seller shall not release the restricted shares from lock-up or issue the Subject Shares.

Section 5.12Share Cancellation.

If at the end of the Maximum Five Year Operational Period, the JV’s profit for the fifth year is less than 20 million RMB, as confirmed by the Seller in accordance with Section 5.10, then the Seller shall forfeit all of the Purchaser’s remaining issued shares that have not been released from the Lock-up (the “Unreleased Shares”), without any consideration to the Purchaser and cancel the Unreleased Shares from its register of members. The Seller shall give a written notice to the Purchaser specifying the number of the Unreleased Shares to be forfeited and canceled (the “Share Cancellation Notice”). Upon the Purchaser’s receipt of the Share Cancellation Notice, the Purchaser shall return the issued share certificate representing the Unreleased Shares for cancellation within three days, provided that if the Purchaser does not return the share certificate back to the Seller, such share certificate shall become invalid. The Unreleased Shares shall be deemed canceled as of the Share Cancellation Notice date.

Section 5.13JV CEO Retention.

The Purchaser and Guo Yang, severally and jointly, covenant and guarantee to the Seller that Guo Yang shall continue his services as the CEO of the JV for the next three years following the execution of this Agreement.

The Purchaser and Guo Yang, severally and jointly, covenant and guarantee, that by August 30, 2025, the Purchaser and Guo Yang shall transfer all overseas business operations of the Purchaser and/or the Purchaser’s affiliated companies to the Seller’s designated entity.

The Purchaser and Guo Yang, severally and jointly, covenant and guarantee that Guo Yang shall not directly or indirectly compete with the business of the JV by any means possible, including investing in, working and/or consulting for entities that are in direct competition with the JV or the Seller. Such a non-compete restriction imposed on Guo Yang hereinunder shall be interpreted broadly by the Seller, and both the Purchaser and Guo Yang agree that the breach of this obligation will cause irreparable damage to the Seller. Each of the Purchaser and Guo Yang shall obey any cease-and-desist orders of the Seller and accept any injunctive relief sought by the Seller.

Section 7.06Third-Party Claims.

If a Purchaser Indemnified Party or a Seller Indemnified Party (each, an “Indemnified Party”) shall receive notice of any Action, audit, demand or assessment (each, a “Third-Party Claim”) against it or which may give rise to a claim for Loss under this Article VII, within thirty (30) calendar days of the receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties, as the case may be, notice of such Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not release any Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article VII except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure and shall not relieve such Indemnifying Party from any other obligation or liability that it may have to any Indemnified Party otherwise than under this Article VII. If the Indemnifying Party acknowledges in writing its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Parties hereunder against any Losses that may result from such Third-Party Claim, then such Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties, as the case may be, shall be entitled to assume and control the defense of such Third-Party Claim at its or their expense and through counsel of its or their choice if it or they give notice of such intention to do so to the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Parties, as the case may be, within fourteen (14) calendar days of the receipt of notice from any Indemnified Party of such Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that if there exists or is reasonably likely to exist a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Parties in its or their sole and absolute discretion for the same counsel to represent both the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Parties and the Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties, then the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to retain

its or their own counsel in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnified Party determines counsel is required, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties. In the event that the Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties exercise the right to undertake any such defense against any such Third-Party Claim as provided above, the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Parties shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties in such defense and make available to any Indemnifying Party, at such Indemnifying Party’s expense, all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by such Indemnifying Party. Similarly, in the event any Indemnified Party is, directly or indirectly, conducting the defense against any such Third-Party Claim, such Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Parties in such defense and make available to any Indemnified Party, at such Indemnifying Party’s or Indemnifying Parties’ expense, all such witnesses, records, materials and information in such Indemnifying Party’s possession or under such Indemnifying Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by any Indemnified Party. No Third-Party Claim may be settled (i) by any Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) if the Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties acknowledge in writing its or their obligation to indemnify such Indemnified Party hereunder against any Losses that may result from such Third-Party Claim or (ii) by any Indemnifying Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Parties, except, in the case of (ii) only, where settlement of such Third-Party Claim (A) includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Parties from all liability arising out of such Action, audit, demand or assessment and (B) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party.

Section 7.07Exclusive Remedy.

Following the Closing, indemnification as set forth in this Article VII shall be the exclusive remedy available to the Purchaser with respect to any breaches of any representations and warranties, covenants or agreement by the other Party in this Agreement, except in each case pursuant to Section 9.02 or in the case of fraud or willful or intentional misconduct by the other Parties (which remedies shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be in addition to the remedies set forth in this Article VII).

Section 9.08Consultation.

Any dispute, controversy or claim (each, a “Dispute”) arising out of or in connection with or relating to this Agreement, or the breach, termination or invalidity hereof (including the validity, scope and enforceability of the arbitration provision set forth in Section 9.09) shall be resolved at the first instance through consultation between the parties to such Dispute. Such consultation shall begin immediately after any party has delivered notice to the other party to the Dispute requesting such consultation.

Section 9.09Arbitration.

(a)If the Dispute is not resolved within 30 days following the date on which a notice for consultation is given or upon the notice of any party to the Dispute notifying that such consultation has failed, the Dispute shall be finally resolved by arbitration administered by the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre under the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules (the “Rules”) as are in force at the time of any such arbitration and as may be amended by the rest of this Section 9.09. For the purpose of such arbitration, there shall be three arbitrators to form an arbitration board (“Arbitration Board”). One arbitrator shall be appointed by Purchaser and one shall be appointed by Seller. All selections shall be made within 30 days after the selecting party gives or receives the demand for arbitration. Such arbitrators shall be freely selected, and the parties shall not be limited in their selection to any prescribed list. The Chairman of the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre shall select the third arbitrator. If any arbitrator to be appointed by a party has not been appointed and consented to participate within 30 days after the selection of the first arbitrator, the relevant appointment shall be made by the Chairman of the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre.

(b)The arbitration shall be conducted in Hong Kong under the auspices of the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre. All arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in English.

(d)The costs and expenses of the arbitration, including the fees of the arbitration, including the fees of the Arbitration Board, shall be borne by the losing party to the Dispute or claim, and each Party shall pay its own fees, disbursements and other charges of its counsel; provided that the Arbitration Board shall have the right to allocate the costs and expenses between each Party as the Arbitration Board deems equitable.

(e)Any award made by the Arbitration Board shall be final and binding on each of the Parties that were parties to the Dispute. The Parties expressly agree to waive the applicability of any Laws that would otherwise give the right to appeal the decisions of the Arbitration Board so that there shall be no appeal to any court of Law for the award of the Arbitration Board, and a party shall not challenge or resist the enforcement action taken by any other party in whose favor an award of the Arbitration Board was given.

Section 9.10Counterparts; Effectiveness.

If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such a determination, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable
