No grants, cash payments or other consideration has been or will be made to replace such Ordinary Shares or otherwise in connection with the Share Surrender. The Share Surrender permits the Company to enhance its financial conditions and provide additional shares available for future issuance under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, while continuing to deliver appropriate returns to our shareholders.

The Ordinary Shares returned by Mr. Liu include (1) 340,000 Ordinary Shares granted by the Company to Mr. Liu on April 28, 2022 under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, which were automatically consolidated into 17,000 Ordinary Shares following the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effected by the Company on March 1, 2024 (the “Reverse Stock Split”), (2) 260,000 Ordinary Shares granted by the Company to Li Qi, a director of the Company, on April 28, 2022 under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, which were transferred by Ms. Qi to Mr. Liu on August 1, 2023 and automatically consolidated into 13,000 Ordinary Shares following the Reverse Stock Split, (3) 250,000 Ordinary Shares granted by the Company to Mr. Liu on December 19, 2022 under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, which were automatically consolidated into 12,500 Ordinary Shares following the Reverse Stock Split, and (4) 200,000 Ordinary Shares granted by the Company to Ms. Qi on December 19, 2022 under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, which were transferred by Ms. Qi to Mr. Liu on August 1, 2023 and automatically consolidated into 10,000 Ordinary Shares following the Reverse Stock Split.
