-
Shareholder Approval
The amendment was approved by a resolution of shareholders, specifically a majority of Class A Ordinary Shareholders, on December 31, 2025.

Centralized Control
This change significantly consolidates voting power in the hands of Class B shareholders, who do not have rights to distributions or liquidation assets, making their shares primarily a vehicle for control.
Analysis
This amendment to the company's Articles of Association represents a substantial shift in voting power, granting Class B Ordinary Shareholders a 25-fold increase in their per-share voting rights.
