	6	 GRANT OF AWARDS 



 

	6.1	 On and subject to memorandum and articles of association of the Company, the terms of this Scheme and the terms
and conditions that the Committee imposes pursuant to Clause 5.1, the Committee shall be entitled at any time during the term of this Scheme to make a Grant to any Participant, as the Committee may in its absolute discretion determine.



  

	6.2	 The amount of an Award may be determined at the sole and absolute discretion of the Committee and may differ
among selected Participants. 


  

	6.3	 Awards may be granted on such terms and conditions (e.g., by linking the vesting of their RSU to certain
corporate milestones and/or the attainment or performance by any member of the Group, the Grantee or any group of Grantees) as the Committee may determine, provided such terms and conditions shall be consistent with any other terms and conditions of
this Scheme. 


  

	6.4	 After the Committee has selected the Participants, it will notify the Trustee of the person(s) selected, the
number of RSUs to be granted to each of them, the number of Shares underlying the RSUs to be granted to each of them, the vesting schedule, the lock-up arrangements upon vesting, and other terms and conditions
that the Award is subject to as determined by the Committee (if any). 



  
 6 














	6.5	 Subject to limitations and conditions of this Scheme, the Committee may direct the Trustee in writing to notify
each of the selected Participants by way of a letter or any such notice or document in such form as the Committee may from time to time determine, an offer of grant of Award (“Award Agreement”). 



 

	6.6	 If the selected Participant intends to accept the Grant as specified in the Award Agreement, he or she is
required to sign an acceptance notice, and return it to the Trustee directly or indirectly through the Company within 10 Business Days. Upon the receipt from the selected Participant of a duly executed acceptance notice, the RSUs are granted to such
Participant in respect of a Board Lot or an integral multiple thereof, who becomes a Grantee pursuant to this Scheme. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the Grant is not accepted by any selected Participant within the time period
prescribed in this Clause 6.6, such Grant shall be deemed as irrevocably rejected by such selected Participant and the unvested RSUs under such Grant shall automatically lapse. 



 

	6.7	 Upon completion of the Qualified IPO, where any Award is proposed to be granted by the Committee to any
selected Participant, it shall not be granted: 


  

	 	(a)	 where the Company has, or reasonably believes there is, material
non-public information or insider information that must be disclosed under the applicable laws and regulations, until such information has been published on the website of the Company and the relevant
Qualified Stock Exchange; 


  

	 	(b)	 within any black-out period or equivalent period of time restricting
and/or prohibiting the trading of any equity securities of the Company as provided in the applicable insider trading policies of the Company; or 


  

	 	(c)	 in any other circumstances where dealings by any selected Participant (including directors of any member of the
Group) are prohibited under any applicable law or regulation or where the requisite approval from any applicable regulatory authorities has not been granted. 


  


	6.8	 The Committee may not grant any Awards to any Participants in any of the following circumstances:



  

	 	(a)	 the requisite approvals for that Grant from any applicable regulatory authorities have not been obtained



  

	 	(b)	 the securities laws or regulations require that a prospectus or other offering documents be issued in respect
of the Grant or in respect this Scheme, unless the Committee determines otherwise 


  

	 	(c)	 where the Grant would result in a breach of any applicable securities laws, rules or regulations by any member
of the Group or any of its directors; or 



  
 7 














	 	(d)	 the Grant would result in breach of the RSU Limit or other rules of this Scheme. 



 

	6.9	 The Committee shall notify the Trustee in writing if: 



 

	 	(a)	 any terms and conditions relating to any Awards and Grants are varied; and 



 

	 	(b)	 any of the Awards and Grants previously notified to the Trustee lapses. 



 

	7	 VESTING OF AWARDS 



 

	7.1	 Subject to the terms of the Scheme and the specific terms and conditions applicable to each Award as provided
in the applicable Award Agreement, the RSUs granted in an Award shall be subject to a vesting period (if any) and to the satisfaction of performance and/or other conditions to be determined by the Committee (if any) in its absolute discretion as
provided in the applicable Award Agreement. If such conditions are not satisfied, the RSU shall automatically lapse on the date on which such conditions are not satisfied, as determined by the Committee in its absolute discretion.



  

	7.2	 Upon fulfillment or waiver of the vesting period and vesting criteria (if any) applicable to a Grantee, a
vesting notice will be sent to the Grantee by the Committee or, at the written direction of the Committee, the Trustee, on the Vesting Date. The Grantee is required to execute, after receiving the vesting notice, certain documents set out in the
vesting notice that the Committee considers necessary, if applicable (which may include, without limitation, a certification to the Group that he or she has complied with all the terms and conditions set out in this RSU Scheme and the Award
Agreement). For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the Grantee fails to execute the required documents as specified in the vesting notice, the vesting of relevant Award shall not be affected. 



 

	7.3	 In the event a general offer by way of voluntary offer, takeover or otherwise (other than by way of scheme of
arrangement pursuant to Clause 7.4 below) is made to all the Shareholders (or all such Shareholders other than the offeror and/or any person Controlled by the offeror and/or any person acting in association or concert with the offeror) and such
offer becomes or is declared unconditional prior to the vesting date of any RSU, the Committee shall, prior to the offer becoming or being declared unconditional, determine at its absolute discretion matters that include, but are not limited to,
whether such RSU shall vest, the percentage of vested RSUs granted to each Grantee and the period within which such RSU shall vest. If the Committee determines that such RSU shall vest and that the percentage of vested RSUs is met, it shall notify
the Grantee that the RSU shall vest, the percentage of RSUs to be vested and the period within which such RSU shall vest. 


  

	7.4	 In the event a general offer for Shares by way of scheme of arrangement is made to all the Shareholders, the
Committee shall, prior to such meetings, determine at its absolute discretion matters that include, but are not limited to, whether such RSU shall vest, the percentage of vested RSUs granted to each Grantee and the period within such RSU shall vest.
If the Committee determines that such RSU shall vest and that the percentage of vested RSUs is met, it shall notify the Grantee and the Trustee that the RSU shall vest, the percentage of RSUs to be vested and the period within which such RSU shall
vest. 



  
 8 














	7.5	 In the event a notice is given by the Company to its Shareholders to convene a Shareholders’ meeting for
the purpose of considering and, if thought fit, approving a resolution to voluntarily wind-up the Company prior to the vesting date of any RSU, the Committee shall determine at its discretion matters that
include, but are not limited to, whether such RSU shall vest, the percentage of vested RSUs granted to each Grantee and the period when such RSU shall vest. If the Committee determines that such RSU shall vest and that the percentage of vested RSUs
is met, it shall notify the Grantee and the Trustee that the RSU shall vest, the percentage of RSUs to be vested and the period within which such RSU shall vest. 



 

	7.6	 In the event a compromise or arrangement, other than a scheme of arrangement contemplated in Clause 7.4 above,
between the Company and its Shareholders and/or creditors is proposed in connection with a scheme for the reconstruction of the Company or its amalgamation with any other company or companies, the Committee shall determine at its discretion whether
such RSU shall vest and the period when such RSU shall vest. If the Committee determines that such RSU shall vest, it shall notify the Grantee and the Trustee that the RSU shall vest and the period within which such RSU shall vest.



  

	8	 SPECIAL TREATMENT OF AWARDS 



 

	8.1	 When a Participant terminates his employment relationship or directorship with the Company or any Related
Entity regardless of the reasons for the termination of the employment relationship or directorship with such Company or any Related Entity or the expiration of the employment relationship, the unvested RSUs held by the Participant shall be
invalidated without any compensation from the Company or any Related Entity unless as determined otherwise by the Committee. 


  

	8.2	 Notwithstanding the above, the Committee in its sole and absolute discretion may reduce the number of Shares
which the RSUs pertain, including reducing such number to zero, the number of RSUs that has been granted but not yet vested, and not grant any new RSUs under the Scheme. 



 

	8.3	 Notwithstanding the above, the Committee may in its sole discretion determine the special treatment of Awards,
and such determination by the Committee shall be final and conclusive. 


  

	9	 RESTRICTIONS AND LIMITATIONS 



 

	9.1	 Any Award granted pursuant to this Scheme shall be personal to the Grantee and shall not be assignable or
transferable. For the avoidance of doubt, after the listing of the Shares on a Qualified Stock Exchange, the underlying Shares in respect of the RSUs held by a Grantee, once vested and transferred to such Grantee (if so elected by the Committee in
its sole discretion), shall be equally transferrable as the remaining Shares subject to any applicable transfer or conversion restrictions pursuant to arrangements entered into by the Company with any depositary bank and/or underwriters and
applicable laws. 



  
 9 














	9.2	 Notwithstanding the above, no Grantee shall in any way sell, transfer, assign, charge, mortgage, encumber,

has been terminated for Cause, and the effective date of such termination, and such determination by the Committee shall be final and conclusive.

reason other than for Cause (including by reason of resignation, retirement, death, Disability or non-renewal of the employment or service agreement upon its expiration for any reason other than for Cause),
the Committee shall determine at its absolute discretion and shall notify the Grantee whether any unvested RSUs granted to such Grantee shall vest and the period within which such RSU shall vest. If the Committee determines that such RSUs shall not
vest, such RSUs shall automatically lapse with effect from the date on which the Grantee’s employment or service is terminated and the Committee shall notify the Trustee in writing accordingly.

	 	(d)	 permit the continuation of an Award in accordance with its original terms. 



 

	12	 SHARE CAPITAL 



The RSUs do not carry any right to vote at general meetings of the Company, and the RSUs do not directly or indirectly limit the Shareholders’ right to
authorize or the Company’s or Related Entities’ right to undergo restructuring or reorganization, including reorganization of capital structure, any dissolution, liquidation, merger, or consolidation of the Company or any Related Entity,
any issuance by the Company of shares of any class, any debt or equity instruments or any securities convertible into shares of any class. No Grantee shall enjoy any of the rights of a Shareholder by virtue of the grant of an Award pursuant to this

discretion in the Award Agreement, the Grantees do not have any rights to any cash or non-cash income, dividends or distributions and/or the sale proceeds of non-cash

with any Shares underlying any Award shall be given to the Trustee under the Scheme where such exercise of discretion or giving of instructions (as applicable) is prohibited under the applicable laws, regulations and rules from time to time (and
such prohibition has not been waived in respect of the Company). Where such prohibition causes a deadline under the Scheme or the Trust Deed (including but not limited to the vesting date or the exercise of any discretion by the Committee) to be
missed, such deadline shall be treated as extended until as soon as practicable after the first date on which the prohibition no longer prevents the relevant action or event, or as soon as practicable after a decision has been made as to whether the
discretion should or should not be exercised, as the case may be. 



  
 11 














	13.2	 The Company shall comply with all applicable disclosure requirements in connection with the administration and
operation of the Scheme including, but not limited to, the requirements imposed by the rules of a Qualified Stock Exchange from time to time. 


  

	14	 ALTERATION OF THIS SCHEME 



The terms of this Scheme may be altered, amended or waived in any respect by the Committee provided that such alteration, amendment or waiver shall not affect
any subsisting rights of any Grantee thereunder. The Committee shall have the right to determine whether any proposed alteration, amendment or waiver is material and such determination shall be conclusive. 

 

	15	 TERMINATION 



This Scheme may be terminated at any time prior to the expiry of its term by the Committee provided that such termination shall not affect any subsisting
rights of any Grantee hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, no further Awards shall be granted after this Scheme is terminated but in all other respects the provisions of this Scheme shall remain in full force and effect. If the Committee
determines that any RSUs granted prior to such termination and not vested on the date of termination shall remain valid, the Committee shall notify the Trustee and all Grantees of such termination and how other interests or benefits in relation to
the outstanding RSUs shall be dealt with. 
  

	16	 INDEMNIFICATION 



To the extent allowable pursuant to applicable laws, each member of the Committee or of the Committee shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company
from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by such member in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which he or she may be a party or in which he or she may be
involved by reason of any action or failure to act pursuant to the Scheme and against and from any and all amounts paid by him or her in satisfaction of judgment in such action, suit, or proceeding against him or her; provided he or she gives the
Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before he or she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of
indemnification to which such persons may be entitled pursuant to the Company’s memorandum and articles of association, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless.

under any relevant legislation for the time being in force in the PRC, the United States and the Cayman Islands, and a Grantee shall be responsible for obtaining any governmental or other official consent or approval and going through any other
governmental or other official procedures that may be required by any country or jurisdiction in these regards. The Group and its affiliates may coordinate or assist the Grantee in complying with such applicable requirements and taking any other
actions as may be required by any applicable laws, regulations or rules. However, neither the Group and its affiliates nor the Trustee shall be responsible for any failure by a Grantee to obtain any such consent or approval or for any tax or other
liability to which a Grantee may become subject as a result of his participation in this Scheme. The Committee shall be entitled to establish such arrangements as it deems reasonably necessary with respect to the mechanisms to implement the vesting
of RSUs, the remittance of the proceeds therefrom to Grantees and related registration, recordation and reporting matters to ensure that the Grantee, the Trustee and the Company can comply with all applicable securities, foreign exchange and tax
regulations of all relevant jurisdictions, including without limitation, the PRC. Each Grantee shall authorize the Company and, to the extent required, the Trustee, to establish all necessary brokerage and other accounts on the Grantee’s behalf

Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy all applicable taxes (including the Participant’s payroll tax obligations) required or permitted by applicable laws to be withheld with respect to any taxable event concerning
a Participant arising as a result of this Scheme. The Committee may in its discretion and in satisfaction of the foregoing requirement allow a Participant to elect to have the Company delay the issuance of any Shares otherwise issuable under any
Award (or allow the return of Shares) having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of taxes required to be withheld. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Scheme, the number of Shares which may be delayed to be issued with respect to the

to satisfy any income and payroll tax liabilities applicable to the Participant shall, unless specifically approved by the Committee, be limited to the number of Shares which have a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding or repurchase equal to
the aggregate amount of such liabilities based on the minimum statutory withholding rates for the applicable income and payroll tax purposes that are applicable to such supplemental taxable income. 



 

	17.8	 The expenses of administering the Scheme shall be borne by the Company and Related Entities.
