*The Reporting Person is deemed to beneficially own 250,000,000 Ordinary Shares based on beneficial ownership of 2,500,000 American Depository Shares, each representing 100 Ordinary Shares.
** The Reporting Person is deemed to beneficially own 200,000,000 Ordinary Warrants based on beneficial ownership of 2,000,000 American Depository Shares, each representing 100 Ordinary Warrants. As more fully explain in Item 4, the Ordinary Warrants are subject to a 9.9% blocker, and the percentage set forth in line (11) gives effect to such blockers. However, as more fully explained in Item 4, the securities reported in lines (6), (8), and (9) show the number of Ordinary Shares that would be issuable upon full conversion and exercise of such reported securities and do not give effect to such blockers. Therefore, the actual number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by such Reporting Person, after giving effect to such blockers, is less than the number of securities in lines (6), (8), and (9).
