The appraisal indicators of the company’s restricted stock incentive plan in 2022 are divided into two levels: the performance appraisal at the company level and the performance appraisal at the individual level.

The company selects the operating income or net profit as the performance evaluation indicators at the company level, and the above indicators are the core financial indicators of the company. Operating income is the main operating achievement of the company and an important symbol to measure the operating status and market share of the enterprise and predict the business expansion trend of the enterprise. Net profit is the main index to measure the operating efficiency of an enterprise, which can truly reflect the profitability and growth of the company. The company has comprehensively considered the macroeconomic environment, industry development trend, market competition, the company’s strategic planning and its own situation and other relevant factors. After reasonable prediction and taking into account the incentive role of the plan, the company has set the target value of operating revenue from 2022 to 2024, which is not less than 5 billion yuan, 6 billion yuan and 7.5 billion yuan respectively; Or the target value of net profit from 2022 to 2024 shall not be less than the performance assessment target of 400 million yuan, 550 million yuan and 700 million yuan respectively. The incentive plan sets up a ladder assessment mode of exercising rights and interests at the company level, which realizes the dynamic adjustment of the proportion of exercising rights and interests, reflects the high growth requirements and ensures the expected incentive effect, which is conducive to mobilizing the enthusiasm of employees, improving the core competitiveness of the company, ensuring the realization of the company’s future development strategy and business objectives, and the index setting is reasonable and scientific.

In addition to the performance appraisal at the company level, the company has also set up a strict performance appraisal system for individuals, which can make a more accurate and comprehensive comprehensive evaluation of the work performance of incentive objects. The company will determine whether the individual incentive object meets the conditions for lifting the sales restriction / ownership according to the performance appraisal results of the incentive object.

To sum up, the assessment system of the company’s incentive plan is comprehensive, comprehensive and operable, the setting of assessment indicators is scientific and reasonable, and has a restrictive effect on Incentive objects, which can achieve the assessment purpose of the incentive plan. We unanimously agreed to submit the proposal to the general meeting of shareholders of the company for deliberation. (no text below)
