  2.

The Board shall, based on the Options to be vested in each year (that is, the total Options granted in the installment/scheduled vesting frequency), calculate the number of Options actually vested based on the performance of the Company and individuals:

 

  (1)

The number of Options actually Vested by a Participant in any year (the “Actual Vesting Amount of that Year”) shall be the product of the Options then vestable by such Participant multiplied by a coefficient (the “Option Vesting Coefficient”) determined by the Board for the Company and the Related Entities based on achievement of the operating targets of the Company and applicable Related Entities determined by the Board for the preceding year. If the Option Vesting Coefficient is less than 100% for any of the first three Vesting years, any portion of the Options unvested for that year may be postponed to the immediately following year (not any further following year) to determine whether such unvested Options are vestable based on the vesting schedule. If 1) the Option Vesting Coefficient for the immediately following year is 100%, then all the unvested Options shall be Vested; and 2) Option Vesting Coefficient for the next year is less than 100%, all the unvested Options shall be canceled. If the Option Vesting Coefficient for the fourth vesting year is less than 100%, the unvested portion shall be immediately canceled.

 

  (2)

If the latest annual performance ranking of a Participant falls within the last 10% of his/her ranking group, such Participant shall be disqualified from Vesting the Option for the current year, and the corresponding Options that are vestable for that year shall be canceled, for which the Company will not make any other compensation.

 

  3.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may, in accordance with its authority, set forth the Vesting frequency and amount and special Vesting rules of each installment of Options to be Vested, either whole or individually.

Unless otherwise provided in this Plan, the Validity Period of each installment of Option granted to the Participant under this Plan shall be 10 years from the Grant Date, and the Options that are not exercised during the Validity Period shall be canceled; and the Board may decide whether to extend the Validity Period if necessary.

 

  2.

Unless otherwise provided by this Plan and the Board or required by Applicable Laws, the Participant shall, from the Initial Date of Exercise to the end of Validity Period, make an Exercise application in accordance with the Exercise procedures, method and notice determined by the Company at the time, and after the necessary elements such as the Exercisable number, Exercise qualification and compliance conditions are confirmed by the Company, the Participant may exercise any vested Option by giving an Exercise Instruction to the party designated by the Company. The specific Exercise procedures and methods may be amended by the Company from time to time based on the actual situation and come into force upon approval by the Board or its authorized director.

  7.

  8.

To the extent permitted by the Applicable Laws and in case of viability, notwithstanding the item 5 of this Paragraph V, as an alternative to the payment and exercise method of Exercise Price listed in this Plan, with the consent of the Board, the Participant may pay the Exercise Price by “simultaneous sale” promise. In other words, the Participant irrevocably chooses to exercise his/her Option, and at the same time he/she sells the stocks purchased due to exercise that can at least pay the Exercise Price (up to all the stocks purchased due to exercise), and the Participant promises to directly pay the equal consideration of the Exercise Price to the Company when selling the stocks, and the sales proceeds exceeding the Exercise Price shall be paid to the Participant.
