 aware of any non-compliance incidents relating to any breach of the PDPO by any of the Hong Kong Subsidiaries since their respective dates of incorporation. Since the PRC subsidiaries conduct substantially all of their business operations in mainland China and neither control the collection, retention, processing, use or transfer of personal data in or from Hong Kong nor control such the collection, retention, processing, use or transfer of data of persons residing or based in Hong Kong, the data privacy requirements under PDPO do not materially affect their business. However, the laws on data privacy are constantly evolving and can be subject to varying interpretations, resulting in uncertainties about the scope of our responsibilities in that regard. Failure to comply with the data privacy requirements in a timely manner, or at all, may subject us and/or the Hong Kong Subsidiaries to consequences including but not limited to government enforcement actions and investigations, fines, penalties, and suspension or disruption of the Hong Kong Subsidiaries’ operations, which may in turn adversely affect our financial conditions, results of operations and prospects.

The Competition Ordinance (Chapter 619 of the Laws of Hong Kong) prohibits and deters undertakings in all sectors from adopting anti-competitive conduct which has the object or effect of preventing, restricting, or distorting competition in Hong Kong.

We confirm that, to the best of our knowledge, information and belief, as of the date of this prospectus: (i) we and the Hong Kong Subsidiaries have complied with all three areas of anti-competition laws and requirements in Hong Kong to the extent they are applicable to us and the Hong Kong Subs
