DISCLOSURE NOTE
We may from time to time purchase our outstanding convertible notes through open market repurchases, privately negotiated transactions with individual holders or otherwise. Purchases or retirement of debt, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material. To the extent we repurchase our convertible notes from holders who have hedged their equity price risk with respect to such notes, such holders may unwind all or part of their hedge positions by buying our ordinary shares or American depositary shares, and/or entering into or unwinding various derivative transactions with respect to our ordinary shares or American depositary shares which could affect the trading price of our American depositary shares. There can be no assurance that we will execute any such repurchase nor can we predict the magnitude of any market activity related thereto.
