This Form of Proxy is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the board of directors (the “Board”) of NIO Inc., a Cayman Islands company (the “Company”), of proxies from holders of the issued Class A ordinary shares of the Company with a par value of US$0.00025 per share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”) and the Class C ordinary shares of the Company with a par value of US$0.00025 per share (the “Class C Ordinary Shares”, and together with the Class A Ordinary Shares, the “Ordinary Shares”) to be exercised at the annual general meeting of the Company (the “AGM”) to be held at Building 19, No. 1355, Caobao Road, Minhang District, Shanghai, People’s Republic of China on June 25, 2024 at 10:30 a.m. (Beijing Time), and at any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof, for the purposes set forth in the Notice of the AGM (the “AGM Notice”).

 

Only the holders of record of the Ordinary Shares on the Company’s register of members at the close of business on May 24, 2024 (Hong Kong Time), as the record date, are entitled to attend and to vote at the AGM. In respect of the matters requiring shareholders’ vote at the AGM, for Resolutions 1 and 3, holder of each Class A Ordinary Share and each Class C Ordinary Share is entitled to one vote; for Resolution 2, holder of each Class A Ordinary Share is entitled to one vote, while holder of each Class C Ordinary Share is entitled to eight votes. The quorum of the AGM is one or more shareholders holding in aggregate at least one-third of all votes attaching to all issued shares of the Company, present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the AGM.

 

The Ordinary Shares represented by all properly executed proxies returned to the Company will be voted at the AGM as indicated or, if no instruction is given, the holder of the proxy will vote the Ordinary Shares in his/her/its discretion, unless a reference to the holder of the proxy having such discretion has been deleted and initialed on this Form of Proxy. Where the chairman of the AGM acts as proxy and is entitled to exercise his/her discretion, he/she is likely to vote the Ordinary Shares FOR the resolutions. As to any other business that may properly come before the AGM, all properly executed proxies will be voted by the persons named therein in accordance with their discretion. The Company does not presently know of any other business which may come before the AGM. However, if any other matter properly comes before the AGM, or any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof, which may properly be acted upon, unless otherwise indicated the proxies solicited hereby will be voted on such matter in accordance with the discretion of the proxy holders named therein. Any person giving a proxy has the right to revoke it at any time before it is exercised by (i) submitting to the Company, at the address set forth below, a duly signed revocation or (ii) voting in person at the AGM.
