In the event of any discrepancy between the English translation and the Chinese version of the Articles of Association, the Chinese version shall prevail.

The Proposed Amendments are subject to approval by the shareholders of the Company (the "Shareholders") by way of special resolution at the forthcoming annual general meeting (the "AGM"), and the obtaining of any required approval or endorsement from, or registration with, the relevant regulatory authorities. Upon the approval from the Shareholders of the relevant special resolutions at the AGM, the Proposed Amendments will be filed with the relevant PRC authorities.

The terms of the fourth session of the Board and the supervisory committee (the "Supervisory Committee") of the Company will expire on 17 May 2021. In view that the nomination of candidates for directors and supervisors of the fifth session of the Board and the Supervisory Committee has not been finalized, and the election process of the new session of the Board and the Supervisory Committee is still under preparation, in order to ensure the continuity of the work of the Board and the Supervisory Committee, the election of the fifth session of the Board and the Supervisory Committee will be postponed, and the term of the special committees of the Board will be extended accordingly. Before the completion of the election process, all members of the fourth session of the Board and the Supervisory Committee will continue to perform their obligations and duties in accordance with the relevant laws, regulations and the Articles of Association.
