Nomination Committee regulatory

"The purpose of the Nomination Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors"

A nomination committee is a small group of board members that screens, selects and recommends people to serve on a company’s board of directors and oversees succession planning for top executives. Think of it as a hiring panel for the board that checks skills, independence and fit so the leadership mix supports the company’s goals. Investors care because the committee shapes who sets strategy, manages risk and protects shareholder interests.

independent non-executive directors regulatory

"a majority of independent directors as defined under the requirements"

Independent non-executive directors are board members who do not work for the company and have no significant financial or personal ties to its managers; they do not run day-to-day operations but attend board meetings to oversee strategy and decisions. For investors, they matter because they act like outside referees or impartial advisors who help prevent self-dealing, challenge management when needed, and boost confidence that the company’s decisions serve shareholders’ interests.

Hong Kong Listing Rules regulatory

"independent non-executive directors under the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities"

A set of official requirements and procedures companies must follow to list and trade shares on the Hong Kong stock exchange. Think of it as a rulebook and checklist that determines who can join the market, what financial and governance information they must disclose, and what ongoing duties they have; these rules matter to investors because they shape how much transparency, oversight and legal protection shareholders can expect, which affects risk and valuation.

Corporate Governance Code regulatory

"the relevant code provisions of the Corporate Governance Code as contained in Appendix 14"

A corporate governance code is a set of recommended rules and best practices that guide how a company’s leaders are chosen, overseen and held accountable, covering board makeup, executive pay, shareholder rights and transparency. Investors treat it like a recipe for trust: companies that follow the code are more likely to manage risks, provide reliable information and treat owners fairly, which can influence confidence, risk and long‑term returns.

Securities and Futures Commission regulatory

"the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (the “SFC”)"

A securities and futures commission is a government-backed regulator that oversees stock, bond and derivatives markets to keep trading fair, transparent and safe for investors. Think of it as a referee and traffic cop for financial markets: it sets rules, licenses firms, investigates misconduct and can halt unsafe activity, so its actions affect investor confidence, market stability and the value or tradability of financial products.

Each ADS represents three class A ordinary shares. The percentage as stated in the above "Changes in issued shares (excluding treasury shares) as a % of existing number of issued shares (excluding treasury shares) before the relevant event" column was calculated based on the Company's issued shares of 259,652,105 (comprising 244,789,786 Class A ordinary shares and 14,862,319 Class B ordinary shares).

FF305 Page 6 of 9 v 1.3.0 Confirmation Not applicable Notes to Section I: 1. Please insert the closing balance date of the last Next Day Disclosure Return published pursuant to Main Board Rule 13.25A / GEM Rule 17.27A or Monthly Return pursuant to Main Board Rule 13.25B / GEM Rule 17.27B, whichever is the later. 2. Please set out all changes in issued shares or treasury shares requiring disclosure pursuant to Main Board Rule 13.25A / GEM Rule 17.27A together with the relevant dates of changes. Each category will need to be disclosed individually with sufficient information to enable the user to identify the relevant category in the listed issuer's Monthly Return. For example, multiple issues of shares as a result of multiple exercises of share options under the same share option scheme or of multiple conversions under the same convertible note must be aggregated and disclosed as one category. However, if the issues resulted from exercises of share options under 2 share option schemes or conversions of 2 convertible notes, these must be disclosed as 2 separate categories. 3. The percentage change in the number of issued shares (excluding treasury shares) of the listed issuer is to be calculated by reference to the opening balance of the number of issued shares (excluding treasury shares) being disclosed in this Next Day Disclosure Return. 4. In the case of a share repurchase or redemption, the “issue/ selling price per share” shall be construed as “repurchase price per share” or “redemption price per share”. Where shares have been issued/ sold/ repurchased/ redeemed at more than one price per share, a volume-weighted average price per share should be given. 5. The closing balance date is the date of the last relevant event being disclosed. 6. For repurchase or redemption of shares, disclosure is required when the relevant event has occurred (subject to the provisions of Main Board Rules 10.06(4)(a), 13.25A and 13.31 / GEM Rules 13.13(1), 17.27A and 17.35), even if the repurchased or redeemed shares have not yet been cancelled. If repurchased or redeemed shares are to be cancelled upon settlement of such repurchase or redemption after the closing balance date, they shall remain part of the issued shares as at the closing balance date in Part A. Details of these repurchased or redeemed shares shall be disclosed in Part B. 7. Items (i) to (viii) are suggested forms of confirmation. The listed issuer may amend the item(s) that is/are not applicable to meet individual cases. 8. “Identical” means in this context: - the securities are of the same nominal value with the same amount called up or paid up; - they are entitled to dividend/interest at the same rate and for the same period, so that at the next ensuing distribution, the dividend/interest payable per unit will amount to exactly the same sum (gross and net); and - they carry the same rights as to unrestricted transfer, attendance and voting at meetings and rank pari passu in all other respects.

For example, multiple issues of shares as a result of multiple exercises of share options under the same share option scheme or of multiple conversions under the same convertible note must be aggregated and disclosed as one category. However, if the issues resulted from exercises of share options under 2 share option schemes or conversions of 2 convertible notes, these must be disclosed as 2 separate categories. 3.

In the case of a share repurchase or redemption, the “issue/ selling price per share” shall be construed as “repurchase price per share” or “redemption price per share”. Where shares have been issued/ sold/ repurchased/ redeemed at more than one price per share, a volume-weighted average price per share should be given. 5. The closing balance date is the date of the last relevant event being disclosed. 6. For repurchase or redemption of shares, disclosure is required when the relevant event has occurred (subject to the provisions of Main Board Rules 10.06(4)(a), 13.25A and 13.31 / GEM Rules 13.13(1), 17.27A and 17.35), even if the repurchased or redeemed shares have not yet been cancelled.

Details of these repurchased or redeemed shares shall be disclosed in Part B. 7. Items (i) to (viii) are suggested forms of confirmation. The listed issuer may amend the item(s) that is/are not applicable to meet individual cases. 8. “Identical” means in this context: - the securities are of the same nominal value with the same amount called up or paid up; - they are entitled to dividend/interest at the same rate and for the same period, so that at the next ensuing distribution, the dividend/interest payable per unit will amount to exactly the same sum (gross and net); and - they carry the same rights as to unrestricted transfer, attendance and voting at meetings and rank pari passu in all other respects.

Each ADS represents three class A ordinary shares. The percentage as stated in the above "Changes in issued shares (excluding treasury shares) as a % of existing number of issued shares (excluding treasury shares) before the relevant event" column was calculated based on the Company's issued shares of 259,652,105 (comprising 244,789,786 Class A ordinary shares and 14,862,319 Class B ordinary shares).

FF305 Page 6 of 9 v 1.3.0 Confirmation Not applicable Notes to Section I: 1. Please insert the closing balance date of the last Next Day Disclosure Return published pursuant to Main Board Rule 13.25A / GEM Rule 17.27A or Monthly Return pursuant to Main Board Rule 13.25B / GEM Rule 17.27B, whichever is the later. 2. Please set out all changes in issued shares or treasury shares requiring disclosure pursuant to Main Board Rule 13.25A / GEM Rule 17.27A together with the relevant dates of changes. Each category will need to be disclosed individually with sufficient information to enable the user to identify the relevant category in the listed issuer's Monthly Return. For example, multiple issues of shares as a result of multiple exercises of share options under the same share option scheme or of multiple conversions under the same convertible note must be aggregated and disclosed as one category. However, if the issues resulted from exercises of share options under 2 share option schemes or conversions of 2 convertible notes, these must be disclosed as 2 separate categories. 3. The percentage change in the number of issued shares (excluding treasury shares) of the listed issuer is to be calculated by reference to the opening balance of the number of issued shares (excluding treasury shares) being disclosed in this Next Day Disclosure Return. 4. In the case of a share repurchase or redemption, the “issue/ selling price per share” shall be construed as “repurchase price per share” or “redemption price per share”. Where shares have been issued/ sold/ repurchased/ redeemed at more than one price per share, a volume-weighted average price per share should be given. 5. The closing balance date is the date of the last relevant event being disclosed. 6. For repurchase or redemption of shares, disclosure is required when the relevant event has occurred (subject to the provisions of Main Board Rules 10.06(4)(a), 13.25A and 13.31 / GEM Rules 13.13(1), 17.27A and 17.35), even if the repurchased or redeemed shares have not yet been cancelled. If repurchased or redeemed shares are to be cancelled upon settlement of such repurchase or redemption after the closing balance date, they shall remain part of the issued shares as at the closing balance date in Part A. Details of these repurchased or redeemed shares shall be disclosed in Part B. 7. Items (i) to (viii) are suggested forms of confirmation. The listed issuer may amend the item(s) that is/are not applicable to meet individual cases. 8. “Identical” means in this context: - the securities are of the same nominal value with the same amount called up or paid up; - they are entitled to dividend/interest at the same rate and for the same period, so that at the next ensuing distribution, the dividend/interest payable per unit will amount to exactly the same sum (gross and net); and - they carry the same rights as to unrestricted transfer, attendance and voting at meetings and rank pari passu in all other respects.
