 made or on principles of reciprocity between jurisdictions. The PRC does not have any treaties or other form of reciprocity with the U.S. or the Cayman Islands that provide for the
reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. In addition, according to the PRC Civil Procedures Law, courts in the PRC will not enforce a foreign judgment against us if they decide that the judgment violates the basic principles of
PRC law or national sovereignty, security or public interest. As a result, it is uncertain whether and on what basis a PRC court would enforce a judgment rendered by a court in the U.S. or in the Cayman Islands. Under the PRC Civil Procedures Law,

with PRC laws 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 our Ordinary Shares, to establish sufficient connection to the PRC for a PRC court to have

in the U.S.; and (ii) in original actions brought in the Cayman Islands, to impose liabilities against us or our directors or officers predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the U.S. or any State in the U.S.,
so far as the liabilities imposed by those provisions are penal in nature. In those circumstances, although there is no statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the U.S., the courts of the Cayman Islands will recognize
and enforce such judgment at common law, without any re
