Ladies and Gentlemen:

Agora, Inc., an exempted company incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Company”), proposes to issue and sell to you (the “Purchaser”), that number of Class A ordinary shares, par value US$0.0001 each (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”), of the Company as determined pursuant to the calculation set forth in Section 1(a) below (the “Shares”). The issuance and sale to the Purchaser of the Shares is to be consummated immediately subsequent to the closing of the issuance and sale of Class A Ordinary Shares in the form of American depositary receipts (the “ADSs”) by the Company pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement to be entered into by and among the Company and the representatives of the several Underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), to the Underwriters in connection with the Company’s initial public offering of ADSs pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form F-1 (the “Registration Statement”) and/or any related registration statements, immediately prior to, or upon, the closing of which all of the outstanding shares of the Company will convert into Class A Ordinary Shares or Class B ordinary shares, par value US$0.0001 each (the “Qualified IPO”).

The number of Shares to be sold by the Company and purchased by the Purchaser shall equal the quotient of US$50,000,000.00 divided by the IPO Price (rounded down to the nearest whole Share).

(b)

Payment for the Shares shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account specified by the Company to the Purchaser, at the location and at the time of the closing of the Qualified IPO, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein.
