The registered office in the Cayman Islands is located at the office of Maples Corporate Services Limited, PO Box 309, Ugland House, Grand Cayman, KY1-1104, Cayman Islands.

The Company’s American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) have been listed on the New York Stock Exchange since December 12, 2018. The Company’s Class A ordinary shares have been listed, by way of introduction, on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange since September 15, 2022. Each ADS of the Company represents two ordinary shares, remain primarily listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange(“NYSE”).
