CAPITAL

stock rights:
Common
stock confers upon its holders the right to receive notice of, and to participate in, all general meetings of the Company, where each
share of common stock shall have one vote for all purposes, to share equally, on a per share basis, in bonuses, profits, or distributions
out of fund legally available therefor, and to participate in the distribution of the surplus assets of the Company in the event
of liquidation of the Company.
b. Secondary
public offering:
On
March 17, 2022, the Company offered and sold 2,300,000
shares of the Company’s common stock, at a public offering price of $295.00
per share. The shares of Common Stock were issued and sold in a registered offering pursuant to the underwriting agreement dated March
17, 2022, among the Company, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC (the “Underwriting

shares of Common Stock that were issued and sold pursuant to the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares under the Underwriting

The
net proceeds to the Company were $650,526
after deducting underwriters' discounts of $27,140
and commissions of $834.
c. Equity
Incentive Plans:
The
Company’s 2007 Global Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”) was adopted by the board of directors on August 30, 2007. The
2007 Plan terminated upon the Company’s IPO on March 31, 2015 and no further awards may be granted thereunder. All outstanding awards
will continue to be governed by their existing terms and 379,358
available options for future grants were transferred to the Company’s 2015 Global Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”) and
are reserved for future issuances under the 2015 plan. The 2015 Plan became effective upon the consummation of the IPO. The 2015 Plan
provides for the grant of options, restricted stock units ("RSU"), performance stock units ("PSU"), and other share-based awards to directors,
employees, officers, and non-employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. As of December 31,
2022, a total of 18,047,085
shares of common stock were reserved for issuance pursuant to stock awards under the 2015 Plan (the “Share Reserve”),
an aggregate of 9,410,816
shares are still available for future grants.
The
Share Reserve will automatically increase on January 1st of each year during the term of the 2015 Plan, commencing on
January 1st of the year following the year in which the 2015 Plan becomes effective, in an amount equal to 5%
of the total number of shares of capital stock outstanding on December 31st
of the preceding calendar year; provided, however, that the Company’s board of directors may determine that there will not be a
January 1st increase in the Share Reserve in a given year or
that the increase will be less than 5% of the shares of capital stock outstanding on the preceding December 31st.
The
Company granted under its 2015 Plan, PSU awards to certain employees and officers which vest upon the achievement of certain performance
or market conditions subject to their continued employment with the Company.
In
2021, the Company has also committed to issuing additional shares, which are subject to resale registration rights and which carry certain
performance conditions (including business performance targets and a continued service relationship with the Company) and are treated
as PSUs for accounting purposes.
The
market condition for the PSUs is based on the Company’s total shareholder return ("TSR") compared to the TSR of companies listed
in the S&P 500 index over a one to three year performance period. The Company uses a Monte-Carlo simulation to determine the grant
date fair value for these awards, which takes into consideration the market price of a share of the Company’s common stock on the
date of grant less the present value of dividends expected during the requisite service period, as well as the possible outcomes pertaining
to the TSR market condition. The Company recognizes such compensation expenses on an accelerated vesting method.
The aggregate maximum number of shares of common stock that may be issued on the exercise of incentive stock options is 10,000,000. As of December 31, 2022, an aggregate of 8,617,974 options are still available for future grants under the 2015 Plan. A
summary of the activity in stock options and related information is as follows:
The
aggregate intrinsic value in the tables above represents the total intrinsic value (the difference between the fair value of the Company’s
common stock as of the last day of each period and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options) that would have
been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on the last day of each period.
The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 was $37,948, $65,668, and $251,564, respectively.
There were no options granted in 2022.
The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted to employees and directors during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, was $168.71 and $62.11, respectively. A

d. Employee
Stock Purchase Plan:
The
Company adopted an ESPP effective upon the consummation of the IPO. As of December 31, 2022, total
of 3,662,737
shares were reserved for issuance under this plan. The number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the ESPP will increase
automatically on January 1st of each year, for ten years, by the lesser of 1%
of the total number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding on December 31st of the preceding calendar year or 487,643
shares. However, the Company’s board of directors may reduce the amount of the increase in any particular year at their discretion,
including a reduction to zero.
The ESPP is implemented through an offering every six months. According to the ESPP, eligible employees may use up to 15% of their salaries to purchase common stock up to an aggregate limit of $15 per participant for every six months plan. The price of an ordinary share purchased under the ESPP is equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the ordinary share on the subscription date of each offering period or on the purchase date. As

shares of common stock had been purchased under the ESPP.
As
of December 31, 2022, 2,923,861
