The options expire on 2036-07-08, giving a long window to exercise.

American Depositary Shares ("ADS") financial
"Number of underlying securities and exercise price expressed in terms of American Depositary Shares ("ADS")."
American depositary shares are U.S.-listed certificates issued by a bank that represent ownership in shares of a foreign company, trading on American exchanges in dollars. Think of them as voucher tickets that let U.S. investors buy and sell foreign stock without handling foreign exchanges, currencies, or settlement rules directly. They matter because they make cross-border investing simpler and can affect liquidity, dividend payments and currency exposure for investors.
exercise price financial
"Number of underlying securities and exercise price expressed in terms of American Depositary Shares ("ADS")."
The exercise price is the fixed amount at which you can buy or sell an asset, like a stock, when using an options contract. It matters because it helps determine whether exercising the option will be profitable or not, depending on the current market price. Think of it as the set price you agree on today to buy or sell later.

"The option vests and becomes exercisable over five years, with 40% vesting..."
Ordinary Shares financial
"The Ordinary Shares may be represented by ADSs. Each 10 ADSs represent 23 Ordinary Shares..."
Ordinary shares are a type of ownership stake in a company, giving shareholders a right to participate in the company’s profits and decision-making through voting. They are similar to owning a piece of a business, and their value can rise or fall based on the company's performance. Investors buy ordinary shares to potentially earn dividends and benefit from the company's growth over time.
