SHARES
SUBJECT TO THE PLAN
3.1 Number
of Shares.
(a) Subject
to the provisions of Article 8 and Section 3.1(b), the maximum aggregate number of Shares which may be issued pursuant
to all Awards shall be 15,846,000 Shares.
(b) To
the extent that an Award terminates, expires, or lapses for any reason, any Shares subject to the Award shall again be available for
the grant of an Award pursuant to the Plan. To the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, Shares issued in assumption of, or in substitution
for, any outstanding awards of any entity acquired in any form or combination by the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company
shall not be counted against Shares available for grant pursuant to the Plan. Shares delivered by the Participant or withheld by the
Company upon the exercise of any Award under the Plan, in payment of the exercise price thereof or tax withholding thereon, may again
be optioned, granted or awarded hereunder, subject to the limitations of Section 3.1(a). Notwithstanding the provisions of this
Section 3.1(b), no Shares may again be optioned, granted or awarded if such action would cause an Incentive Share Option to fail

Distributed. Any Shares distributed pursuant to an Award may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued Shares, treasury
shares (subject to Applicable Laws) or Shares purchased on the open market. Additionally, in the discretion of the Committee, American
Depository Shares in an amount equal to the number of Shares which otherwise would be distributed pursuant to an Award may be distributed
in lieu of Shares in settlement of any Award. If the number of Shares represented by an American Depository Share is other than on a
one-to-one basis, the limitations of Section 3.1 shall be adjusted to reflect the distribution of American Depository Shares in
lieu of Shares.
Article 4
ELIGIBILITY
AND PARTICIPATION
4.1 Eligibility.
Persons eligible to participate in this Plan include Employees, Consultants, and all members of the Board, as determined by the Committee.
4.2 Participation.
Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee may, from time to time, select from among all eligible individuals, those to whom
Awards shall be granted and shall determine the nature and amount of each Award. No individual shall have any right to be granted an
Award pursuant to this Plan.
4.3 Jurisdictions.
In order to assure the viability of Awards granted to Participants employed in various jurisdictions, the Committee may provide for such
special terms as it may consider necessary or appropriate to accommodate differences in local law, tax policy, or custom applicable in
the jurisdiction in which the Participant resides or is employed. Moreover, the Committee may approve such supplements to, or amendments,
restatements, or alternative versions of, the Plan as it may consider necessary or appropriate for such purposes without thereby affecting
the terms of the Plan as in effect for any other purpose; provided, however, that no such supplements, amendments, restatements,
or alternative versions shall increase the share limitations contained in Section 3.1 of the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Committee may not take any actions hereunder, and no Awards shall be granted, that would violate any Applicable Laws.
Article 5
OPTIONS
5.1 General.
The Committee is authorized to grant Options to Participants on the following terms and conditions:
(a) Exercise
Price. The exercise price per Share subject to an Option shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement
which may be a fixed or variable price related to the Fair Market Value of the Shares. The exercise price per Share subject to an Option
may be amended or adjusted in the absolute discretion of the Committee, the determination of which shall be final, binding and conclusive.
For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent not prohibited by Applicable Laws or any exchange rule, a downward adjustment of the exercise
prices of Options mentioned in the preceding sentence shall be effective without the approval of the Company’s shareholders or
the approval of the affected Participants.
(b) Time
and Conditions of Exercise. The Committee shall determine the time or times at which an Option may be exercised in whole or in part,
including exercise prior to vesting; provided that the term of any Option granted under the Plan shall not exceed ten years, except as
provided in Section 11.1. The Committee shall also determine any conditions, if any, that must be satisfied before all or part
of an Option may be exercised.
(c) Payment.
The Committee shall determine the methods by which the exercise price of an Option may be paid, the form of payment, including, without
limitation (i) cash or check denominated in U.S. Dollars, (ii) to the extent permissible under the Applicable Laws, cash
or check in Chinese Renminbi, (iii) cash or check denominated in any other local currency as approved by the Committee, (iv) Shares
held for such period of time as may be required by the Committee in order to avoid adverse financial accounting consequences and having
a Fair Market Value on the date of delivery equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Option or exercised portion thereof, (v) after
the Trading Date the delivery of a notice that the Participant has placed a market sell order with a broker with respect to Shares then
issuable upon exercise of the Option, and that the broker has been directed to pay a sufficient portion of the net proceeds of the sale
to the Company in satisfaction of the Option exercise price; provided that payment of such proceeds is then made to the Company upon
settlement of such sale, (vi) other property acceptable to the Committee with a Fair Market Value equal to the exercise price,
or (vii) any combination of the foregoing. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, no Participant who
is a member of the Board or an “executive officer” of the Company within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the
Exchange Act shall be permitted to pay the exercise price of an Option in any method which would violate Section 13(k) of
the Exchange Act.
(d) Evidence
of Grant. All Options shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement between the Company and the Participant. The Award Agreement shall
include such additional provisions as may be specified by the Committee.
(e) Effects
of Termination of Employment or Service on Options. Termination of employment or service shall have the following effects on Options
granted to the Participants:
(i) Dismissal
for Cause. Unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, if a Participant’s employment by or service to the Service Recipient
is terminated by the Service Recipient for Cause, the Participant’s Options will terminate upon such termination, whether or not
the Option is then vested and/or exercisable;
(ii) Death
or Disability. Unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, if a Participant’s employment by or service to the Service
Recipient terminates as a result of the Participant’s death or Disability:
(a) the
Participant (or his or her legal representative or beneficiary, in the case of the Participant’s Disability or death, respectively),
will have until the date that is 12 months after the Participant’s termination of Employment to exercise the Participant’s
Options (or portion thereof) to the extent that such Options were vested and exercisable on the date of the Participant’s termination
of Employment on account of death or Disability;
(b) the
Options, to the extent not vested and exercisable on the date of the Participant’s termination of Employment or service, shall
terminate upon the Participant’s termination of Employment or service on account of death or Disability; and
(c) the
Options, to the extent exercisable for the 12-month period following the Participant’s termination of Employment or service and
not exercised during such period, shall terminate at the close of business on the last day of the 12-month period.
(iii) Other
Terminations of Employment or Service. Unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, if a Participant’s employment by or
service to the Service Recipient terminates for any reason other than a termination by the Service Recipient for Cause or because of
the Participant’s death or Disability:
(a) the
Participant will have until the date that is 90 days after the Participant’s termination of Employment or service to exercise his
or her Options (or portion thereof) to the extent that such Options were vested and exercisable on the date of the Participant’s
termination of Employment or service;
(b) the
Options, to the extent not vested and exercisable on the date of the Participant’s termination of Employment or service, shall
terminate upon the Participant’s termination of Employment or service; and
(c) the
Options, to the extent exercisable for the 90-day period following the Participant’s termination of Employment or service and not
exercised during such period, shall terminate at the close of business on the last day of the 90-day period.
5.2 Incentive
Share Options. Incentive Share Options may be granted to Employees of the Company, a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company. Incentive
Share Options may not be granted to Employees of a Related Entity or to Independent Directors or Consultants. The terms of any Incentive
Share Options granted pursuant to the Plan, in addition to the requirements of Section 5.1, must comply with the following additional
provisions of this Section 5.2:
(a) Individual
Dollar Limitation. The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time the Option is granted) of all Shares with respect to
which Incentive Share Options are first exercisable by a Participant in any calendar year may not exceed $100,000 or such other limitation
as imposed by Section 422(d) of the Code, or any successor provision. To the extent that Incentive Share Options are first
exercisable by a Participant in excess of such limitation, the excess shall be considered Non-Qualified Share Options.
(b) Exercise
Price. The exercise price of an Incentive Share Option shall be equal to the Fair Market Value on the date of grant. However, the
exercise price of any Incentive Share Option granted to any individual who, at the date of grant, owns Shares possessing more than ten
percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of shares of the Company may not be less than 110% of Fair Market Value on
the date of grant and such Option may not be exercisable for more than five years from the date of grant.
(c) Transfer
Restriction. The Participant shall give the Company prompt notice of any disposition of Shares acquired by exercise of an Incentive
Share Option within (i) two years from the date of grant of such Incentive Share Option or (ii) one year after the transfer
of such Shares to the Participant.
(d) Expiration
of Incentive Share Options. No Award of an Incentive Share Option may be made pursuant to this Plan after the Expiration Date.

Agreement that restrictions or forfeiture and repurchase conditions relating to Restricted Share Units will be waived in whole or in

if applicable, the requirements of any exchange on which the Shares are listed or traded. All Share certificates delivered pursuant to
the Plan are subject to any stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee deems necessary or advisable to comply all Applicable
Laws, and the rules of any national securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted, or
traded. The Committee may place legends on any Share certificate to reference restrictions applicable to the Shares. In addition to the

as the Committee, in its discretion, deems advisable in order to comply with any such laws, regulations, or requirements. The Committee
shall have the right to require any Participant to comply with any timing or other restrictions with respect to the settlement or exercise
of any Award, including a window-period limitation, as may be imposed in the discretion of the Committee.

the Company and a Participant, if the Committee anticipates the occurrence, or upon the occurrence, of a Corporate Transaction, the Committee
may, in its sole discretion, provide for (i) any and all Awards outstanding hereunder to terminate at a specific time in the future
and shall give each Participant the right to exercise the vested portion of such Awards during a period of time as the Committee shall
determine, or (ii) the purchase of any Award for an amount of cash equal to the amount that could have been attained upon the exercise
of such Award (and, for the avoidance of doubt, if as of such date the Committee determines in good faith that no amount would have been
attained upon the exercise of such Award, then such Award may be terminated by the Company without payment), or (iii) the replacement
of such Award with other rights or property selected by the Committee in its sole discretion or the assumption of or substitution of
such Award by the successor or surviving corporation, or a Parent or Subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number
and kind of Shares and prices, or (iv) payment of Award in cash based on the value of Shares on the date of the Corporate Transaction
plus reasonable interest on the Award through the date when such Award would otherwise be vested or have been paid in accordance with
its original terms, if necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code.
8.3 Outstanding
Awards – Other Changes. In the event of any other change in the capitalization of the Company or corporate change other than
those specifically referred to in this Article 8, the Committee may, in its absolute discretion, make such adjustments in the number
and class of shares subject to Awards outstanding on the date on which such change occurs as the Committee may consider appropriate to
prevent dilution or enlargement of rights.
8.4 No
Other Rights. Except as expressly provided in the Plan, no Participant shall have any rights by reason of any subdivision or consolidation
of Shares of any class, the payment of any dividend, any increase or decrease in the number of shares of any class or any dissolution,
liquidation, merger, or consolidation of the Company or any other corporation. Except as expressly provided in the Plan or pursuant to
action of the Committee under the Plan, no issuance by the Company of shares of any class, or securities convertible into shares of any
class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number of shares subject to an Award or the
grant or exercise price of any Award.
Article 9
ADMINISTRATION
9.1 Committee.
The Plan shall be administered by the Board or a committee of one or more members of the Board to whom the Board shall delegate the authority
to grant or amend Awards to Participants other than any of the Committee members. Any grant or amendment of Awards to any Committee member
shall then require an affirmative vote of a majority of the Board members who are not on the Committee.
9.2 Action
by the Committee. A majority of the Committee shall constitute a quorum. The acts of a majority of the members of the Committee present
at any meeting at which a quorum is present, and acts approved in writing by a majority of the Committee in lieu of a meeting, shall
be deemed the acts of the Committee. Each member of the Committee is entitled to, in good faith, rely or act upon any report or other
information furnished to that member by any officer or other employee of the Company or any Subsidiary, the Company’s independent
certified public accountants, or any executive compensation consultant or other professional retained by the Company to assist in the
administration of the Plan.
9.3 Authority
of the Committee. Subject to any specific designation in the Plan, the Committee has the exclusive power, authority and discretion
to:
(a) designate
Participants to receive Awards;
(b) determine
the type or types of Awards to be granted to each Participant;
(c) determine
the number of Awards to be granted and the number of Shares to which an Award will relate;
(d) determine
the terms and conditions of any Award granted pursuant to the Plan, including, but not limited to, the exercise price, grant price, or
purchase price, any restrictions or limitations on the Award, any schedule for lapse of forfeiture restrictions or restrictions on the
exercisability of an Award, and accelerations or waivers thereof, any provisions related to non-competition and recapture of gain on
an Award, based in each case on such considerations as the Committee in its sole discretion determines;
(e) determine
whether, to what extent, and pursuant to what circumstances an Award may be settled in, or the exercise price of an Award may be paid
in, cash, Shares, other Awards, or other property, or an Award may be canceled, forfeited, or surrendered;
(f) prescribe
the form of each Award Agreement, which need not be identical for each Participant;
(g) decide
all other matters that must be determined in connection with an Award;
(h) establish,
adopt, or revise any rules and regulations as it may deem necessary or advisable to administer the Plan;
(i) interpret
the terms of, and any matter arising pursuant to, the Plan or any Award Agreement; and
(j) make
all other decisions and determinations that may be required pursuant to the Plan or as the Committee deems necessary or advisable to
administer the Plan.
9.4 Decisions
Binding. The Committee’s interpretation of the Plan, any Awards granted pursuant to the Plan, any Award Agreement and all decisions
and determinations by the Committee with respect to the Plan are final, binding, and conclusive on all parties.
Article 10
EFFECTIVE
AND EXPIRATION DATE
10.1 Effective
Date. This Plan shall become effective on the date of its adoption by the Board or as otherwise specified by the Board when adopting
the Plan (the “Effective Date”).
10.2 Expiration
Date. The Plan will expire on, and no Award may be granted pursuant to the Plan after, the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date
(the “Expiration Date”). Any Awards that are outstanding on the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date shall remain
in force according to the terms of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement.
Article 11
AMENDMENT,
MODIFICATION, AND TERMINATION
11.1 Amendment,
Modification, And Termination. With the approval of the Board, at any time and from time to time, the Committee may terminate, amend
or modify the Plan; provided, however, that (a) to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Applicable Laws, the
Company shall obtain shareholder approval of any Plan amendment in such a manner and to such a degree as required, unless the Company
decides to follow home country practice, and (b) unless the Company decides to follow home country practice, shareholder approval
is required for any amendment to the Plan that (i) increases the number of Shares available under the Plan (other than any adjustment
as provided by Article 8), (ii) permits the Committee to extend the term of the Plan or the exercise period for an Option
beyond ten years from the date of grant, or (iii) results in a material increase in benefits or a change in eligibility requirements.
11.2 Awards
Previously Granted. Except with respect to amendments made pursuant to Section 11.1, no termination, amendment, or modification
of the Plan shall adversely affect in any material way any Award previously granted pursuant to the Plan without the prior written consent
of the Participant.
Article 12
GENERAL
PROVISIONS
12.1 No
Rights to Awards. No Participant, employee, or other person shall have any claim to be granted any Award pursuant to the Plan, and
neither the Company nor the Committee is obligated to treat Participants, employees, and other persons uniformly.
12.2 No
Shareholders Rights. No Award gives the Participant any of the rights of a Shareholder of the Company unless and until Shares are
in fact issued to such person in connection with such Award.
12.3 Taxes.
No Shares shall be delivered under the Plan to any Participant until such Participant has made arrangements acceptable to the Committee
for the satisfaction of any income and employment tax withholding obligations under Applicable Laws. The Company or any Subsidiary shall
have the authority and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy
all applicable taxes (including the Participant’s payroll tax obligations) required or permitted by Applicable Laws to be withheld
with respect to any taxable event concerning a Participant arising as a result of this Plan. The Committee may in its discretion and
in satisfaction of the foregoing requirement allow a Participant to elect to have the Company withhold Shares otherwise issuable under
an Award (or allow the return of Shares) having a Fair Market Value equal to the sums required to be withheld. Notwithstanding any other
provision of the Plan, the number of Shares which may be withheld with respect to the issuance, vesting, exercise or payment of any Award
(or which may be repurchased from the Participant of such Award after such Shares were acquired by the Participant from the Company)
in order to satisfy any income and payroll tax liabilities applicable to the Participant with respect to the issuance, vesting, exercise
or payment of the Award shall, unless specifically approved by the Committee, be limited to the number of Shares which have a Fair Market
Value on the date of withholding or repurchase equal to the aggregate amount of such liabilities based on the minimum statutory withholding
rates for the applicable income and payroll tax purposes that are applicable to such supplemental taxable income.
12.4 No
Right to Employment or Services. Nothing in the Plan or any Award Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of
the Service Recipient to terminate any Participant’s employment or services at any time, nor confer upon any Participant any right
to continue in the employment or services of any Service Recipient.
12.5 Unfunded
Status of Awards. The Plan is intended to be an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation. With respect to any payments
not yet made to a Participant pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Award Agreement shall give the Participant any
rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company or any Subsidiary.
12.6 Indemnification.
To the extent allowable pursuant to Applicable Laws, each member of the Committee or of the Board shall be indemnified and held harmless
by the Company from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by such member in connection
with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which he or she may be a party or in which he or she may be involved
by reason of any action or failure to act pursuant to the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid by him or her in satisfaction
of judgment in such action, suit, or proceeding against him or her; provided he or she gives the Company an opportunity, at its own expense,
to handle and defend the same before he or she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification
shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled pursuant to the Company’s then
effective Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may
have to indemnify them or hold them harmless.
12.7 Relationship
to other Benefits. No payment pursuant to the Plan shall be taken into account in determining any benefits pursuant to any pension,
retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare or other benefit plan of the Company or any Subsidiary except to the extent
otherwise expressly provided in writing in such other plan or an agreement thereunder.
12.8 Expenses.
The expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company and its Subsidiaries.
12.9 Titles
and Headings. The titles and headings of the Sections in the Plan are for convenience of reference only and, in the event of any
conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control.
12.10 Fractional
Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issued and the Committee shall determine, in its discretion, whether cash shall be given in
lieu of fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares shall be eliminated by rounding up or down as appropriate.
12.11 Limitations
Applicable to Section 16 Persons. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Plan, and any Award granted or awarded
to any Participant who is then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth
in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including any amendment to Rule 16b-3 of the
Exchange Act) that are requirements for the application of such exemptive rule. To the extent permitted by the Applicable Laws, the Plan
and Awards granted or awarded hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive rule.
12.12 Government
and Other Regulations. The obligation of the Company to make payment of awards in Shares or otherwise shall be subject to all Applicable
Laws, and to such approvals by government agencies as may be required. The Company shall be under no obligation to register any of the
Shares paid pursuant to the Plan under the Securities Act or any other similar law in any applicable jurisdiction. If the Shares paid
pursuant to the Plan may in certain circumstances be exempt from registration pursuant to the Securities Act or other Applicable Laws,
the Company may restrict the transfer of such Shares in such manner as it deems advisable to ensure the availability of any such exemption.
12.13 Governing
Law. The Plan and all Award Agreements shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the Cayman Islands.
12.14 Section 409A.
To the extent that the Committee determines that any Award granted under the Plan is or may become subject to Section 409A of the
Code, the Award Agreement evidencing such Award shall incorporate the terms and conditions required by Section 409A of the Code.
To the extent applicable, the Plan and the Award Agreements shall be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and
the U.S. Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretative guidance issued thereunder, including without limitation any such
regulation or other guidance that may be issued after the Effective Date. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary,
in the event that following the Effective Date the Committee determines that any Award may be subject to Section 409A of the Code
and related Department of Treasury guidance (including such Department of Treasury guidance as may be issued after the Effective Date),
the Committee may adopt such amendments to the Plan and the applicable Award agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including
amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, that the Committee determines are necessary
or appropriate to (a) exempt the Award from Section 409A of the Code and/or preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits
provided with respect to the Award, or (b) comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and related U.S. Department
of Treasury guidance.
12.15 Appendices.
The Committee may approve such supplements, amendments or appendices to the Plan as it may consider necessary or appropriate for purposes
of compliance with Applicable Laws or otherwise and such supplements, amendments or appendices shall be considered a part of the Plan;
provided, however, that no such supplements shall increase the share limitation contained in Section 3.1 of the Plan without the
approval of the Board.
