  2022 Share Incentive Plan

Under the 2022 Plan, the maximum aggregate number of Class A ordinary shares which may be issued pursuant to all awards under such plan is 518,950, which constitutes 10% of the total issued and outstanding shares of our company on a fully-diluted basis as of the date of adoption.
