Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited, The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “ Stock Exchange ”) and Hong Kong Securities Clearing Company Limited (“ HKSCC ”) take no responsibility for the contents of this announcement, make no representation as to its accuracy or completeness and expressly disclaim any liability whatsoever for any loss howsoever arising from or in reliance upon the whole or any part of the contents of this announcement.

Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this announcement shall have the same meanings as those defined in the prospectus dated Friday, June 25, 2021 (the “ Prospectus ”) issued by XPeng Inc. (the “ Company ”).

This announcement is for information purposes only and does not constitute an invitation or offer to acquire, purchase or subscribe for securities. Potential investors should read the Prospectus for detailed information about the Company and the Global Offering described below before deciding whether or not to invest in the Offer Shares.

This announcement is not for release, publication, distribution, directly or indirectly, in or into the United States (including its territories and possessions, any state of the United States and the District of Columbia). This announcement does not constitute or form a part of any offer or solicitation to purchase or subscribe for securities in the United States or in any other jurisdiction. Securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ U.S. Securities Act ”). Any public offering of our securities to be made in the United States will be made by means of a prospectus that may be obtained from us and that will contain detailed information about us and our management, as well as financial statements. We are conducting a public offering of the securities described herein in the United States pursuant to our registration statement on Form F-1, as amended, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on June 23, 2021.

In connection with the Global Offering, J.P. Morgan Securities (Asia Pacific) Limited, as the stabilizing manager (the “ Stabilizing Manager ”), or any person acting for it, on behalf of the Underwriters, may over-allocate or effect transactions with a view to stabilizing or supporting the market price of the Class A ordinary shares at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail for a limited period after the Listing Date. However, there is no obligation on the Stabilizing Manager, or any person acting for it, to conduct any such stabilizing action, which, if taken, will be conducted at the absolute discretion of the Stabilizing Manager and may be discontinued at any time. Any such stabilizing activity is required to be brought to an end on the 30th day after the last day for lodging applications under the Hong Kong Public Offering. Such stabilization action, if taken, may be effected in all jurisdictions where it is permissible to do so, in each case in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulatory requirements, including the Securities and Futures (Price Stabilizing) Rules (Chapter 571W of the Laws of Hong Kong), as amended, made under the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Chapter 571 of the Laws of Hong Kong).

Potential investors should be aware that stabilizing action cannot be taken to support the price of the Class A ordinary shares for longer than the stabilization period which begins on the Listing Date and is expected to expire on the 30th day after the last day for lodging applications under the Hong Kong Public Offering. After this date, no further stabilizing action may be taken, and demand for the Class A ordinary shares and the price of the Class A ordinary shares could fall.

Potential investors of the Offer Shares should note that the Joint Representatives (for themselves and on behalf of the Hong Kong Underwriters) shall be entitled to terminate the Hong Kong Underwriting Agreement with immediate effect upon the occurrence of any of the events set out in the section headed “Underwriting — Underwriting Arrangements and Expenses — Hong Kong Public Offering — Grounds for Termination” in the Prospectus at any time prior to 8:00 a.m. (Hong Kong time) on the Listing Date (which is currently expected to be on Wednesday, July 7, 2021).

The Company is controlled through weighted voting rights. Prospective investors should be aware of the potential risks of investing in a company with a WVR structure, in particular that the WVR Beneficiaries, whose interests may not necessarily be aligned with those of our Shareholders as a whole, will be in a position to exert significant influence over the outcome of Shareholders’ resolutions, irrespective of how other Shareholders vote. For further information about the risks associated with our WVR structure, see “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Our Corporate Structure.” Prospective investors should make the decision to invest in the Company only after due and careful consideration.

THE LISTING APPLICATION

We have applied to the Stock Exchange for the listing of, and permission to deal in, our Class A ordinary shares in issue and to be issued pursuant to the Global Offering (including the Class A ordinary shares which may be issued pursuant to the exercise of the Over-allotment Option), the Class A ordinary shares to be converted upon the completion of the Global Offering, and may be converted, from Class B ordinary shares, and Class A ordinary shares to be converted from Class C ordinary shares upon the completion of the Global Offering.

STRUCTURE OF THE GLOBAL OFFERING

The Global Offering comprises:

  • the Hong Kong Public Offering of initially 4,250,000 Offer Shares (subject to reallocation) in Hong Kong, representing approximately 5.0% of the total number of Offer Shares initially available under the Global Offering; and

  • the International Offering of initially 80,750,000 Offer Shares (subject to reallocation and the Over-allotment Option), representing approximately 95.0% of the total number of Offer Shares initially available under the Global Offering.

The allocation of the Offer Shares between the Hong Kong Public Offering and the International Offering will be subject to reallocation as described in the section headed “Structure of the Global Offering” in the Prospectus.

In particular, subject to the requirements under Practice Note 18 of the Listing Rules and Guidance Letter HKEX-GL91-18, the Joint Representatives may, at their discretion, reallocate Offer Shares from the International Offering to the Hong Kong Public Offering to satisfy valid applications under the Hong Kong Public Offering. In accordance with Guidance Letter HKEX-GL91-18 issued by the Stock Exchange, if such allocation is done other than pursuant to the Practice Note 18 of the Listing Rules, the maximum total number of Offer Shares that may be allocated to the Hong Kong Public Offering following such reallocation shall be not more than double the number of Offer Shares initial available to the Hong Kong Public Offering (i.e. 8,500,000 Offer Shares, representing 10.0% of the total number of Offer Shares initially available under the Global Offering).

In connection with the Global Offering, the Company is expected to grant the Over-allotment Option to the International Underwriters, exercisable by the Joint Representatives (on behalf of the International Underwriters) at any time from the Listing Date until 30 days after the last day for lodging applications under the Hong Kong Public Offering, to require the Company to issue up to an aggregate of 12,750,000 Offer Shares, representing not more than 15% of the total number of Offer Shares initially available under the Global Offering, at the International Offer Price under the International Offering to, among other things, cover over-allocations in the International Offering, if any. In the event the Over-allotment Option is exercised, we will make an announcement which will be posted on the website of the Stock Exchange ( www.hkexnews.hk ) and on our website ( www.xiaopeng.com ), respectively.

PRICING

The Public Offer Price will not be more than HK$180.00 per Offer Share, unless otherwise announced as further explained in the section headed “Structure of the Global Offering” in the Prospectus. Applicants for the Offer Shares are required to pay, on application, the maximum Public Offer Price of HK$180.00 per Offer Share together with brokerage of 1.0%, SFC transaction levy of 0.0027% and the Stock Exchange trading fee of 0.005%, subject to refund if the Public Offer Price as finally determined is less than HK$180.00 per Offer Share.
