The Grants are subject to the terms and conditions of the Post-IPO Share Scheme and the award agreements entered into between the Company and each of the Grantees. The principal terms of the Post-IPO Share Scheme were set out in the section headed “Statutory and General Information – D. Share Incentive Plans – 2. Post-IPO Share Scheme” in Appendix IV to the listing document of the Company dated December 16, 2022.

The Share Awards will be satisfied through utilizing the Class A Ordinary Shares held by the depositary of the ADSs for bulk issuance of ADSs reserved for future issuances upon the exercise or vesting of awards granted under the Post-IPO Share Scheme.

Details of the Grants are as follows:

Performance Target

A portion of the Share Awards representing approximately 98.60% of the Share Awards under the Grants shall be vested subject to a performance target whereby the number of Share Awards to be vested shall be directly linked to the result of the Grantee’s performance evaluation in the relevant period as assessed by the Group. The vesting of the remaining portion of the Share Awards under the Grants is not subject to any performance target.

Clawback Mechanism
