Notice to all investors

Investorsshould be aware that foreign investors are not generally able to hold A sharespursuant to restrictions under PRC law, subject to certain limited exemptions,such as for Qualified Foreign Investors (“QFIs”).

However,one of the features of the Shanghai-London Stock Connect scheme is thatinvestors will be able to: (i) buy GDRs by requesting a Designated Broker tobuy A shares on the Shanghai Stock Exchange and instruct the Depositary to createGDRs representing such A shares; and (ii) sell GDRs by requesting a DesignatedBroker to redeem their GDRs and sell the underlying A shares on the ShanghaiStock Exchange. Pursuant to the “Provisions on the Supervision andAdministration of Depositary Receipts under the Stock Connect Scheme betweenDomestic and Overseas Stock Exchanges” (境内外证券交易所互联互通存托凭证业务监管规定) published by the CSRC on 11 February 2022 (the “DR Provisions”), the creation andredemption of GDRs in connection with the purchase and sale of underlying Ashares may only be facilitated by those Designated Brokers who hold accountswith members of domestic stock exchanges enabling them to create or redeem GDRsby buying or selling the underlying A shares on domestic stock exchanges(subject to certain quotas imposed by relevant regulators) and providingrelevant instructions to the Depositary. For further details, see “Plan of Distribution — Trading GDRs” inthe Pathfinder Prospectus.

This mechanism isintended to provide cash fungibility between the GDRs and the A Shares byenabling investors or their brokers to place buy and sell orders with theDesignated Brokers who are able to seek the best price for the securities fromeither market.

It should be noted that,pursuant to the Shanghai-London Stock Connect scheme, GDR holders will not bepermitted to redeem their GDRs and hold the underlying A Shares in theiron-shore accounts (such as QFI accounts, ifthey have such accounts) or have the underlying A Shares held on their behalfby a Designated Broker. GDR holders who are otherwise able to hold A Sharesthrough any permitted channel and wish to hold A Shares (for example, in orderto exercise any of the rights that A shareholders have but which GDR holders donot) would need to sell some or all of their GDRs (either on the LSE (oranother legitimate trading venue) or by redeeming their GDRs and selling theunderlying A Shares on the Shanghai Stock Exchange) and separately buy A Sharesoutside the Shanghai-London Stock Connect scheme to be held in a separate(existing or newly established) account.

Inaddition, pursuant to the DR Provisions, GDRs subscribed for by investors inthe Offering may not be redeemed within 120 days following the date ofAdmission. Therefore, for such period, GDR holders will not be able to redeemtheir GDRs and sell the underlying A Shares on the Shanghai Stock Exchange andwill only be able to sell their GDRs through the IOB of the London StockExchange or another legitimate trading venue. For the avoidance of doubt,during such period investors will be able to buy GDRs by requesting aDesignated Broker to buy A Shares on the Shanghai Stock Exchange and instructthe Depositary to create GDRs representing such A Shares, subject to the cap onthe number of GDRs approved by the CSRC.

Investorsshould also be aware that pursuant to the DR Provisions and the rules ofTrading of GDRs under the Stock Connect scheme promulgated by the ShanghaiStock Exchange, the aggregate holding of a single overseas investor of theequities of the Company (including the A Shares and GDRs whether held directlyor indirectly) shall not exceed 10% of the total outstanding shares of theCompany. In the event an overseas investor’s holding of equities exceeds suchlimit, such investor is required to liquidate the excess portion within fivetrading days. Furthermore, the DR Provisions also require that the aggregateholdings of A Shares by all overseas investors in the Company (including QFIs)shall not exceed 30% of the total outstanding shares of the Company. In theevent the 30% limit is exceeded, overseas investors may be required toliquidate their holdings (in reverse chronological order of when such holdingswere acquired). The foregoing restrictions do not apply to overseas investors’strategic investments as defined and regulated by the Measures for theAdministration of Strategic Investment in Listed Companies by Foreign Investors(外国投资者对上市公司战略投资管理办法) last amended in October2015.

Furthermore,investors should note that to the extent stabilisation is undertaken, in orderto ensure there is sufficient headroom under the GDR facility, including underthe cap on the number of GDRs approved by the CSRC, for the Company to issuenew A Shares and sell GDRs representing such A Shares to the StabilisingManager in order to satisfy its obligations under the Over-allotment Option (ifexercised), investors and shareholders of the Company may be prevented fromdepositing additional A Shares into the GDR facility in order to receive (orsell) GDRs for the duration of the Stabilisation Period.

Pursuantto the Measures for the Administration of Acquisition of Listed Companies (上市公司收购管理办法) promulgated by the CSRCand last amended in March 2020 (the “PRCTakeover Rules”), an investor and any persons acting in concert whotogether hold 5% or more of the outstanding shares in a listed company(including the Company) shall, within three days upon its shareholding in thelisted company reaching such percentage: (i) prepare a report on its change ofshareholding; (ii) submit the report to the CSRC and the relevant stockexchange; and (iii) notify the listed company and make an announcement on suchevent. In addition, an investor and any person acting in concert holding 5% ormore of a listed company’s outstanding shares, (a) shall be subject to the samereporting and announcement obligations as set out above each time itsshareholding in the listed company increases or decreases by 5%; and (b) shallnotify the listed company and make an announcement each time its shareholdingin the listed company increased or decreased by 1%.
