1.1

Each of the Warrantors hereby agrees, represents and undertakes to each and all of the Warrantees that it has provided, and it has procured its shareholders, employees, directors, officers and Affiliates (as defined in the currently effective memorandum and articles of association of the Company) to, and has made best efforts to procure its other related parties to provide, each of the Warrantees with all information and documents, including without limitation any agreements, contracts, side letters, undertakings, memoranda of understandings, amendments or any similar arrangements (no matter concluded orally or in writing) with any Shareholder (including any other Warrantee) or the Company or any of their respective Affiliates, and any of their subsidiaries, employees, directors, partnerships, officers or any other related parties relating to or in connection with (a) the IPO, including without limitation any de facto compensation arrangements in relation to the IPO or (b) the adoption of any additional employee incentive plans or the modification in respect of any existing employee incentive plans or the modification in respect of any existing employee incentive plans that have been approved by the Shareholders in connection with the IPO as of the date of this Deed, including without limitation any de facto compensation arrangements in relation therewith, and in each case that has the effect of establishing rights or otherwise benefiting any Shareholder or any of such Shareholder’s Affiliates, or any of their subsidiaries, employees, directors, partnerships, officers or any other related parties, whether directly or indirectly through any arrangement for the purpose of realizing such benefit, in a manner more favorable than the corresponding terms applicable to the relevant Warrantee in relation to the IPO (collectively, the “More Favorable Arrangements”). Save for the aforementioned information and documents provided to the relevant Warrantee, each of the Warrantors agrees, represents and undertakes to each and all of the relevant Warrantees that there are no other documents or arrangements, orally or written, that have the effect of establishing the More Favorable Arrangements.

For the avoidance of doubt, without prejudice to the foregoing, adoption or modification of employee incentive plan and grants of options to the management or employee of the Company under such plan after the IPO in accordance with the then effective memorandum and articles of association and the applicable listing rules for the purpose of rewarding and motivating their bona fide services shall be allowed.
