 the solicitation of proxies, consents or authorizations in respect of a security registered
under the Exchange Act; (ii) the sections of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their stock
ownership and trading activities and liability for insiders who profit from trades made in a short period of time; and (iii) the
rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing with the SEC of quarterly reports on Form 10-Q containing unaudited financial
and other specified information, or current reports on Form 8-K upon the occurrence of specified significant events. In addition,
our officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and “short-swing” profit recovery provisions
of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder. Therefore, our shareholders may not know on a timely basis when
our officers, directors and principal shareholders purchase or sell our Class A Ordinary Shares. In addition, foreign private issuers
are not required to file their annual report on Form 20-F until one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each fiscal year,
while U.S. domestic issuers that are accelerated filers are required to file their annual report on Form 10-K within seventy-five
(75) days after the end of each fiscal year. Foreign private issuers also are exempt from Regulation Fair Disclosure, aimed
at preventing issuers from making selective disclosures of material information. As a result of the above, you may not have the same protections
afforded to shareholders of companies that are not foreign private issuers.

in our corporate governance practices in accordance with various SEC and NYSE rules. The regulatory and compliance costs to us under U.S. securities
laws if we are required to comply with the reporting requirements applicable to a U.S. domestic issuer may be significantly higher
than the cost we would incur as a foreign private issuer. As a result, we expect that a loss of foreign private issuer status would increase
our legal and financial compliance costs and would make some activities highly time consuming and costly. We also expect that if we were
required to comply with the rules and regulations applicable to U.S. domestic issuers, it would make it more
