 a kind the enforcement of which is contrary to natural justice or the public policy
of the Cayman Islands. However, the Cayman Islands courts are unlikely to enforce a judgment obtained from the U.S. courts under civil
liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities law if such judgment is determined by the courts of the Cayman Islands to give rise
to obligations to make payments that are penal or punitive in nature. Because such a determination has not yet been made by a court of
the Cayman Islands, it is uncertain whether such civil liability judgments from U.S. courts would be enforceable in the Cayman Islands.

It is our understanding that the PRC does not have
treaties with the United States and many other countries providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments of courts
and that there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the PRC would recognize or enforce judgments of United States courts against
CAAS Cayman or the directors or officers of CAAS Cayman predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United
States or any state in the United States.

Additionally, our PRC counsel has advised us that
it may be difficult for you to bring an original action against CAAS Cayman or against its directors and officers who are nationals or
residents of countries other than the United States in a PRC court in the event that you believe that your rights have been infringed
under the U.S. federal securities laws, PRC laws, Cayman Islands laws or otherwise because we are incorporated under the laws of the Cayman
Islands and it may be difficult for U.S. shareholders, by virtue only of holding CAAS Cayman ordinary shares, to establish a connection
to the PRC as required by the PRC Civil Procedures Law in order for a PRC court to have jurisdiction.
