| The DGCL permits the adoption of a provision in a corporation’s certificate of incorporation limiting or eliminating the monetary liability of its directors or certain officers to a corporation or its stockholders by reason of such director’s or officer’s breach of the fiduciary duty of care. The DGCL does not permit any limitation of the liability of the directors and officers of a corporation for: (1) breaching the duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders; (2) failing to act in good faith; (3) engaging in intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; (4) obtaining an improper personal benefit from the corporation; (5) with respect to a director, paying a dividend or approving a stock repurchase or redemption that was illegal under applicable law; or (6) with respect to an officer, any action by or in the right of the corporation. 
 The Company’s certificate of incorporation does not include any limitation on the monetary liability of its officers.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             |     | Cayman Islands law, in certain circumstances, permits a company to limit the liability of a director to the company. The considerations under Cayman Islands law with regard to the limitation of a director’s liability are similar to those that apply to the enforcement of provisions relating to the indemnification of directors discussed above under “Indemnification of Directors and Officers.” A Cayman Islands court will enforce such a limitation except to the extent that enforcement of the relevant provision may be held to be contrary to public policy.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          
 The Amended CAAS Cayman Articles provides that no current or former director and officer of CAAS Cayman shall be liable to CAAS Cayman for any loss or damage incurred by CAAS Cayman as a result (whether direct or indirect) of the carrying out of their functions unless that liability arises through such person’s own dishonesty, willful default or fraud.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    |
