Ladies and Gentlemen:

Bilibili Inc., an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands (the “Company”), proposes to exchange (the “Notes Exchange”) US$[•] aggregate principal amount of its 0.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the “Notes”) to be purchased by Goldman Sachs (Asia) L.L.C. (the “Underwriter”) through private negotiations from certain holders of the Notes as described below (the “Exchange Notes”) for [•] American Depositary Shares, each representing one Class Z ordinary share of a par value of US$0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “ADSs”). The Underwriter proposes to make an offering (the “Offering”) of the ADSs and to use the net proceeds of the Offering (after deducting the Selling Commission as defined and set forth in Section 3 below) to pay the Purchase Price (as defined below) for the Exchange Notes. The Underwriter shall, after paying the Purchase Price to the holders of the Exchange Notes, pay the remaining net proceeds of the Offering in the amount of US$[•] to the Company (the “Remaining Proceeds”). The Class Z ordinary shares of a par value of US$0.0001 per share, of the Company are hereinafter referred to as the “Shares.”

Prior to the execution of this Agreement, the Underwriter and its applicable affiliate(s), as duly engaged and authorized by the Company, entered into separate agreements with the holders of the Exchange Notes to purchase the Exchange Notes from such holders (the “Notes Purchase”) for an aggregate purchase price of US$[•] (the “Purchase Price”). The closing of each of the Notes Exchange and the Notes Purchase is contingent upon the closing of the Offering.

The ADSs are to be issued in connection with the Offering pursuant to a Deposit Agreement dated as of March 27, 2018 (the “Deposit Agreement”) among the Company, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Depositary (the “Depositary”), and the holders and beneficial owners of American depositary shares evidenced by American Depositary Receipts issued under the Deposit Agreement. Each ADS represents the right to receive one Share deposited pursuant to the Deposit Agreement.

The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement, including a prospectus, on Form F-3, relating to the securities (the “Shelf Securities”), including the Shares represented by the ADSs, to be issued from time to time by the Company, and a registration statement on Form F-6 relating to the ADSs. The registration statement relating to the Shares represented by the ADSs, as amended to the date of this Agreement, including the information (if any) deemed to be part of the registration statement at the time of effectiveness pursuant to Rule 430A or Rule 430B under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), is hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement,” and the related prospectus covering the Shelf Securities dated January 9, 2023 in the form first used to confirm sales of the ADSs and the Shares represented thereby (or in the form first made available to the Underwriter by the Company to meet requests of purchasers pursuant to Rule 173 under the Securities Act) is hereinafter referred to as the “Base Prospectus.” The Base Prospectus, as supplemented by the prospectus supplement specifically relating to the Shares represented by the ADSs in the form first used to confirm sales of the Shares (or in the form first made available to the Underwriter by the Company to meet requests of purchasers pursuant to Rule 173 under the Securities Act) is hereinafter referred to as the “Prospectus,” and the term “preliminary prospectus” means the preliminary prospectus supplement specifically related to the Shares represented by the ADSs dated January 9, 2023 (including the Base Prospectus). The registration statement on Form F-6 relating to the ADSs, as amended, is hereinafter referred to as the “ADS Registration Statement.” The Company has filed, in accordance with Section 12 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), a registration statement on Form 8-A to register the Shares and the ADSs.

It is understood, however, that except as provided in Section 6(m) and Section 8 entitled “Indemnity and Contribution,” the Underwriter will pay all of their costs and expenses, including the fees and disbursements of counsel to the Underwriter and any advertising expenses connected with any offers they may make.]

The provisions of this Section 7 shall not supersede or otherwise affect any agreement that the Company may otherwise have for the allocation of such expenses among themselves.

8. Indemnity and Contribution.

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Underwriter, each affiliate of the Underwriter within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act, each director, officer and employee of any of the foregoing, the selling agents of the Underwriter, and each person that controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any amendment thereof, the ADS Registration Statement or any amendment thereof, any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, any issuer free writing prospectus as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Securities Act, any Company information that the Company has filed, or is required to file, pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act, any road show as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Securities Act (a “road show”), or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and shall reimburse the Underwriter and each director, officer, employee or controlling person of the Underwriter promptly upon demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by that Underwriter, director, officer, employee or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information (as defined in Section 8(b) hereof).

(b) The Underwriter agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, and officers who sign the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to the Underwriter, but only with reference to information furnished to the Company in writing by the Underwriter expressly for use in the Registration Statement or any amendment thereof, any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, any issuer free writing prospectus, any road show or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Underwriter consists of the name of the Underwriter, the concession figures appearing in the third paragraph under the caption “Underwriting” and the disclosure on sales to discretionary accounts appearing in the eighteenth paragraph under the caption “Underwriting” (the “Underwriter Information”).

(c) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 8(a) or 8(b), such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing (provided that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under the preceding paragraphs of this Section 8 except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided further that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under the preceding paragraphs of this Section 8). Counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the indemnified parties. An indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defense of any such action; provided, however, that counsel to the indemnifying party shall not (except with the consent of the indemnified party) also be counsel to the indemnified party. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. In the case of any such separate firm for the Underwriter and such control persons and affiliates of the Underwriter and their respective directors, officers and employees, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Underwriter. In the case of any such separate firm for the Company, and such directors, officers and control persons of the Company, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Company. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this paragraph, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) To the extent the indemnification provided for in Section 8(a) or 8(b) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party or parties on the other hand from the Offering of the ADSs or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause 8(d)(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause 8(d)(i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and of the indemnified party or parties on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriter on the other hand in connection with the Offering of the ADSs shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the Offering of the ADSs (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriter, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the Prospectus, bear to the aggregate Public Offering Price of the ADSs. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriter on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Underwriter and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Underwriter’s obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 8 are several in proportion to the respective number of ADSs they have purchased hereunder, and not joint.

(e) The Company and the Underwriter agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriter were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 8(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section 8(d) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, in no event shall the Underwriter be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriter with respect to the Offering of the ADSs exceeds the amount of any damages that it has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in this Section 9 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned understands that Goldman Sachs (Asia) L.L.C. (the “Underwriter”) proposes to enter into an Equity Underwriting and Notes Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Bilibili Inc., an exempted company incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Company”), providing for the public offering (the “Offering”) by the Underwriter of a certain number of American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) representing Class Z ordinary shares of a par value of US$0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “Ordinary Shares”), pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form F-3 and a Registration Statement on Form F-6 (collectively, the “Registration Statements”) filed or to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Agreement, as applicable.

In consideration of the Underwriter’s participation in the Offering, and for other good and valuable consideration the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Underwriter, it will not, during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending 90 days after the date of the final prospectus relating to the Offering (the “Restricted Period”), (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any ADSs or Ordinary Shares (collectively, the “Securities”) beneficially owned (as such term is used in Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), by the undersigned or any other securities so owned convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for the Securities or (2) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of the Securities or such other securities, in cash or otherwise. The foregoing sentence shall not apply to (a) the Notes Exchange and the Notes Purchase, (b) transactions relating to Securities or other securities of the Company acquired in open market transactions after the completion of the Offering, (c) transfers of Securities or any security convertible into the Securities as a bona fide gift, (d) distributions of Securities or any security convertible into the Securities to limited partners or stockholders of the undersigned; provided that in the case of any transfer or distribution pursuant to clause (c) or (d), each donee or distributee shall sign and deliver to the Underwriter a lock-up letter substantially in the form of this letter, (e) transfer of Securities or any security convertible into the Securities to other officers, directors or shareholders who have signed and delivered to the Underwriter a lock-up letter substantially in the form of this letter in connection with the Offering, including to the affiliates owned or controlled by such officers, directors or shareholders, provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, any Securities or other securities transferred pursuant to clause (f) shall be subject to the restrictions set forth in the second paragraph of such lock-up letter, (g) transfers of Securities or any security convertible into the Securities to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or the immediate family of the undersigned, provided that the trustee of the trust agrees to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth herein, and provided further that any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, (h) transfers of the Securities pursuant to a bona fide third-party tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction involving all holders of the ADSs or Ordinary Shares in connection with a Change of Control (as defined below) of the Company; provided that in the event the tender offer, merger, consolidation or other such transaction is not completed, the undersigned’s Securities shall remain subject to the restrictions set forth in this letter, or (i) the establishment of a trading plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act for the transfer of the Securities, provided that such plan does not provide for the transfer of the Securities during the Restricted Period and to the extent a public announcement or filing under the Exchange Act, if any, is required of or voluntarily made by or on behalf of the undersigned or the Company regarding the establishment of such plan, such announcement or filing shall include a statement to the effect that no transfer of the Securities may be made under such plan during the Restricted Period. For purposes of this letter, a “Change of Control” shall mean the consummation of any bona fide third-party tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction the result of which is that any “person” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), or group of persons, other than the Company, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the Exchange Act) of 50% of the total voting power of the voting stock of the Company, and “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin. In addition, the undersigned agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Underwriter, it will not, during the Restricted Period, make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any Securities or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for the Securities. The undersigned hereby also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of the undersigned’s Securities unless such transfer is in compliance with the foregoing restrictions.

A-1-1

The undersigned understands that the Company and the Underwriter are relying upon this letter in proceeding toward consummation of the Offering. The undersigned further understands that this letter is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned’s heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns.

Whether or not the Offering actually occurs depends on a number of factors, including market conditions. The Offering will only be made pursuant to the Agreement, the terms of which are subject to negotiation between the Company and the Underwriter.

This letter shall automatically terminate and be of no further force and effect on the earlier of (i) the date that the Company advises the Underwriter in writing, prior to the execution of the Agreement, that it has determined not to proceed with the Offering, (ii) subsequent to signing the Agreement, the date on which the Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) is terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the ADSs to be sold thereunder, or (iii) March 31, 2023, if the Offering has not been completed by or before such date.

This letter is governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.
