FULL EXERCISE OF THE OVER-ALLOTMENT OPTION

Reference is made to the Prospectus and the allotment results announcement of the Company dated November 28, 2022. On December 6, 2022 (after the Hong Kong trading hours), the Joint Global Coordinators (for themselves and on behalf of the International Underwriters) have fully exercised the Over-allotment Option in respect of an aggregate of 830,000 Class A ordinary shares (the "Over-allotment Shares"), representing approximately 15% of the Offer Shares initially available under the Global Offering (before the exercise of the Over-allotment Option).

Pursuant to the Stock Borrowing Agreement entered into between Citigroup Global Markets Limited and Splendid Tiger Limited, Citigroup Global Markets Limited has borrowed 830,000 Class A ordinary shares from Splendid Tiger Limited to cover over-allocations in the International Offering. The Over-allotment Shares will be used to facilitate the return in full to Splendid Tiger Limited of the borrowed Class A ordinary shares. The Company will allot and issue the Over-allotment Shares at HK$50.03 per Class A ordinary share (exclusive of brokerage of 1%, SFC transaction levy of 0.0027%, AFRC transaction levy of 0.00015% and Hong Kong Stock Exchange trading fee of 0.005%), being the Offer Price under the Global Offering.

Total Number of Shares of the Company upon the Full Exercise of the Over-allotment Option

The Company intends to apply the additional net proceeds towards the same purposes as set out in the section headed "Use of Proceeds" in the Prospectus.
