Reference is made to the announcement (the “ Announcement ”) of NetDragon Websoft Holdings Limited (the “ Company ”) dated 3 September 2008 in relation to the adoption of the employee incentive programme (the “ Share Award Scheme ”).

The Awarded Shares were granted to Dr. Leung at nil consideration by way of allocation of Returned Shares held by the Trustee pursuant to the Share Award Scheme and the terms of the Trust Deed. Subject to the acceptance by Dr. Leung, the Awarded Shares shall be vested on 26 March 2021. Upon acceptance by Dr. Leung, such Awarded Shares may be held by Dr. Leung in his own name or such nominee, including any trustee, as designated by him.
