(I) reasons for this termination
According to the resolution of the 14th meeting of the second board of directors and the written confirmation issued by the company, the reasons for the company to terminate the incentive plan are as follows:
Due to the great changes in the current macroeconomic situation, industry market environment and the company’s launch of the incentive plan, the company did not meet the performance objectives set by the incentive plan in 2021. In this case, it is difficult for the company to meet the performance assessment requirements set in the 2021 stock option and restricted stock incentive plan, and it is difficult to continue to promote and implement the incentive plan to achieve the incentive effect on the incentive objects. After careful argumentation, the board of directors of the company decided to terminate the implementation of the incentive plan, cancel the stock options granted to the incentive object but not yet exercised, and repurchase and cancel the restricted shares granted to the incentive object but not yet removed. Together with the supporting documents such as the administrative measures for the implementation and assessment of stock options and restricted stock incentive plan in 2021.

In view of the fact that 16 incentive objects granted stock options for the first time and 5 incentive objects granted restricted shares for the first time have resigned, the aforesaid incentive objects no longer meet the qualification of incentive objects.
Accordingly, according to the provisions of the incentive plan (Draft), 90000 stock options granted but not exercised by the above-mentioned 16 incentive objects will be cancelled by the company, and 76000 restricted shares granted but not lifted by the above-mentioned five incentive objects will be repurchased and cancelled by the company.
