(i)This Warrant is exercisable only in whole before the end of the Expiration Time, and shall be exercised by the Holder within ten (10) Business Days or a longer period as agreed by the Company upon the completion by the Holder of the ODI Procedures, with evidence of such completion provided by the Holder (including but not limited to 《境外投资项目备案通知书》,《企业境外投资证书》,《外汇登记凭证》 (the “ODI Documents”)) (the date of such exercise, the “Exercise Date”), provided that, the Warrant shall in no event be exercisable after fifteen (15) Business Days upon the completion by the Holder of the ODI Procedures if the Warrant has not been exercised therebefore. The Holder hereby undertakes to use its commercially best efforts to obtain its ODI Approvals as soon as possible after the execution of this Warrant, and the Company agrees to use its commercially best efforts to provide all necessary assistances to the Holder for obtaining its ODI Approvals. Specifically, the Company and the Holder shall execute and deliver a Share Purchase Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “SPA”), which is executed only for the filing of ODI Procedures. The Holder and the Company agree that the SPA is for the purpose of filing of ODI Procedures only and notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in the SPA, the provisions of this Warrant shall prevail over the provisions of the SPA. “ODI Procedures” means the filing with and/or approval by (i) the National Development and Reform Commission of the PRC or its local counterparts, (ii) the Ministry of Commerce of the PRC or its local counterparts, and (iii) the banks authorized by the State of Foreign Exchange in relation to the investment to be made by the Holder to the Company pursuant to exercise of this Warrant (the “Bank Authorization”).

(iii)In case the Holder exercises this Warrant prior to the IPO, the Holder shall deliver to the Company a duly executed deed of adherence in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C on the Exercise Date.

3
(iv)Certificates for the Warrant Shares (as unpaid shares), together with any other securities or property to which the Holder is entitled upon such exercise, shall be delivered to the Holder by the Company at the Company’s expense as soon as practicable after the rights represented by this Warrant have been so exercised and in any event within five (5) Business Days following the Exercise Date. Each certificate so delivered shall be in such denominations of the Warrant Shares (as unpaid shares) as may be requested by the Holder hereof and shall be registered in the name of the Holder. For avoidance of doubt, certificates for the Warrant Shares shall include (1) an unexecuted copy of a duly issued share certificate (as unpaid shares) representing the Warrant Shares, and (2) an updated copy of the register of members of the Company reflecting the Holder’s ownership of the Warrant Shares marked as unpaid shares, certified by the registered agent of the Company.

3. Reservation of Shares. The Company covenants and agrees that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant (together with all Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of Series A-16 Preferred Shares, in case the Holder exercises this Warrant before the IPO) will, upon issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all preemptive rights and similar rights of any shareholder and free of all taxes, liens, charges, other encumbrances or restrictions with respect to the issue thereof. The Company further covenants and agrees that during the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved, for the purpose of issue or transfer upon exercise of the subscription rights evidenced by this Warrant, a sufficient number of authorized but unissued Series A-16 Preferred Shares (together with the number of Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion) and Class A Ordinary Shares, or other securities and property, when and as required to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant. The Company will take all such action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares shall be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law.
4. Adjustment of Exercise Price. The Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events described in this Section 4.
(a) Conversion or Redemption of Preferred Shares. If all of the outstanding Preferred Shares of the Company are redeemed or converted into Class A Ordinary Shares, then this Warrant shall automatically become exercisable, still subject to Section 2(b), for that number of Class A Ordinary Shares equal to the number of Class A Ordinary Shares that would have been received if this Warrant had been exercised in full and the Preferred Shares received thereupon had been simultaneously converted into Class A Ordinary Shares immediately prior to such event, and the Exercise Price shall be automatically adjusted to equal the number obtained by dividing (i) the aggregate purchase price of the Warrant Shares for which this Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to such conversion, by (ii) the number of Class A Ordinary Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after such conversion.
4
(b) Subdivisions, Combinations and Dividends. In the event the Company shall at any time subdivide its outstanding Preferred Shares into a greater number of Preferred Shares or pay a dividend in respect of its outstanding Preferred Shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision or at the record date of such dividend shall be proportionately reduced and conversely, in the event the outstanding Preferred Shares of the Company shall be combined into a smaller number of Preferred Shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased.
(c) Reclassification. If any reclassification of the capital stock of the Company shall be effected in such a way that holders of Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive stock, securities, or other assets or property, then, as a condition of such reclassification, lawful and adequate provisions shall be made whereby the Holder hereof shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive (in lieu of the Preferred Shares immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented hereby) such shares of stock, securities or other assets or property as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding Preferred Shares immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented hereby. In any reclassification described above, appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Warrant to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of the Exercise Price and of the number of Preferred Shares purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be, in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof.
(d) Notice of Adjustment. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price or any increase or decrease in the number of Preferred Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall promptly give written notice thereof, addressed to the registered Holder of this Warrant at the address of such Holder as shown on the books of the Company. The notice shall be signed by a director of the Company and shall state the exercise price resulting from such adjustment and the increase or decrease, if any, in the number of shares purchasable at such price upon the exercise of this Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company acknowledges that the Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to the benefit of all adjustments in the number of Class A Ordinary Shares of the Company issuable upon conversion of the Warrant Shares of the Company which occur prior to the exercise of this Warrant including but not limited to any increase in the number of Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion as a result of a dilutive issuance of capital stock.
5. Transfers of Warrant. Subject to compliance with the Act or other applicable securities laws and subject to compliance with the same transfer restriction under the Shareholders Agreement, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable or assignable in whole by the Holder (such transferring or assigning holder being a “Transferor”) (i) to any of its Affiliates (the “Affiliate Transferee”) without the prior written consent of the Company, provided, however, that the Holder shall give advance written notice to the Company with respect to a proposed transfer of such Warrant, or (ii) to any third party that is not an Affiliate of the Holder (the “Non-Affiliate Transferee”; together with the Affiliate Transferee, the “Transferee”) with the prior written consent of the Company. The transfer shall be recorded on the books of the Company upon the surrender of this Warrant, properly endorsed, to the Company at its principal offices, and the payment to the Company of all transfer taxes and other governmental charges imposed on such transfer.
5
6. Loss or Mutilation of Warrant. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the event of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company, or in the event of any such mutilation upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant, the Company, at its expense, shall make and deliver a new Warrant, of like tenor, in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant.
