According to the "Audit Report" (XYZH/2026XAAA5B0105), "Internal Control Audit Report" (XYZH/2026XAA A5B0106) issued by ShineWing Certified Public Accountants LLP (Special General Partnership) on April 27, 2026, and the instructions issued by the company, and approved by our lawyers through the China Securities Regulatory Commission website (http://ww w.csrc.gov.cn/), China Securities Regulatory Commission Inner Mongolia Supervision Bureau website (http://www.csrc.gov.cn/neimengg u/), Shenzhen Stock Exchange website (http://www.szse.cn/), Credit China website (https://www.cr

3. Company-level performance appraisal requirements
The assessment year corresponding to the third unlocking period for the first grant part of this incentive plan and the second unlocking period for the reserved grant part is both 2025. The corresponding company-level performance appraisal targets are as follows:
Lifting the restricted sales period and performance appraisal targets
The third unlocking period for the first granted part and the estimated net profit in 2022 as the base, the net profit growth rate in 2025 does not leave the second unlocking period for the granted part. It is less than 131%
Note: The "net profit" caliber is based on the consolidated statement audited by an accounting firm, in which "net profit" refers to the net profit attributable to shareholders of listed companies, and excludes the data of all equity incentive plans and employee stock ownership plan share payment expenses and the impact of goodwill impairment within the validity period of the company and its subsidiaries as the calculation basis.
According to the "Audit Report" (XYZH/2026XAAA5B0105) issued by ShineWing Certified Public Accountants LLP (Special General Partnership) on April 27, 2026 and the company's 2025 annual report, the net profit in 2025 will increase
The length of the legal opinion is 155.82%, not less than 131%. Therefore, the company has met the company's performance assessment requirements corresponding to the third unlocking period for the initial grant part and the second unlocking period for the reserved grant part.
- Individual level performance appraisal requirements
The Compensation and Appraisal Committee will score the incentive objects’ comprehensive evaluation in each assessment year, and determine their sales restriction lifting ratio based on the performance completion rate of the incentive objects. The individual’s actual sales restriction lifting quota for the year = the sales restriction lifting ratio × the individual’s planned sales restriction lifting quota for the year.
The performance evaluation results of the incentive objects are divided into four grades: excellent, good, medium and poor. The assessment and evaluation form is suitable for the incentive objects. At that time, the unlocking ratio of incentive objects will be determined according to the following table:
Personal assessment results of the previous year (S) S≥80 80>S≥70 70>S≥60 S<60 Evaluation standards Excellent Medium Poor
Individual-level unlocking ratio 100% 100% 80% 0%
The incentive objects can be released from the sales restrictions in batches according to the proportion stipulated in this incentive plan; the part of the incentive objects that cannot be released from the sales restrictions due to assessment reasons or cannot be completely released from the sales restrictions will be repurchased and canceled by the company based on the grant price plus the deposit interest of the People's Bank of China for the same period, and cannot be deferred to the next year.
According to the instructions issued by the company, the assessment results of each incentive object and other information, the personal assessment results of 88 incentive objects in the first grant part and 11 incentive objects in the reserved grant part in 2025 are all excellent, and their individual-level unlocking rate is 100%. The personal assessment results of 22 incentive targets in the first grant portion in 2025 are poor, and the individual-level unlocking rate is 0%.
According to the ninth meeting of the seventh session of the Board of Directors of the company, it was agreed that the company would handle matters related to the unlocking of 4,956,000 restricted shares for the 88 eligible first-time incentive recipients in accordance with the relevant provisions of this incentive plan after the expiration of the third unlocking period of the initial grant part; and handle the unlocking of 500,000 restricted shares for the 11 eligible recipients of reserved grant incentives after the expiration of the second unlocking period of the reserved grant part.
In summary, our lawyers believe that as of the date of issuance of this legal opinion, the conditions for the third unlocking period for the first grant of this incentive plan and the second unlocking period for the reserved grant part have been met, which is in compliance with the relevant provisions of the "Administrative Measures" and the "Incentive Plan".
legal opinion
3. Details of this adjustment to the repurchase price
On September 7, 2026, the company held the ninth meeting of the seventh board of directors and reviewed and approved the "Proposal on Repurchasing and Cancelling Certain Restricted Stocks and Adjusting the Repurchase Price." The company's board of directors adjusted the repurchase price of this incentive plan. The specific reasons are as follows:
According to the provisions of the "Incentive Plan", after the restricted stocks granted to the incentive objects have been registered, if the company has converted capital reserves into share capital, distributed stock dividends, split shares, allotment or reduction of shares, paid dividends and other events that affect the company's total share capital or the company's stock price, the company should make corresponding adjustments to the repurchase price of the restricted stocks that have not yet been lifted. The adjustment method is as follows:
dividend
P=P-V
Among them: P is the repurchase price of restricted shares per share before adjustment; V is the dividend amount per share; P is the repurchase price of restricted shares per share after adjustment. After adjusting for dividends, P must still be greater than 1.
On May 21, 2026, the company held the 2025 annual shareholders' meeting, which reviewed and approved the "Proposal on the Company's 2025 Profit Distribution Plan." According to the "2025 Annual Equity Distribution Implementation Announcement" disclosed by the company on May 23, 2026, the equity registration date for this equity distribution is May 29, 2026, and the ex-rights and ex-dividend date is June 1, 2026. The profit distribution implementation plan is: the company's existing total share capital of 769,504,398 shares, excluding the repurchased shares of 13,821,410 Based on the 755,682,988 shares after the shares were issued, a cash dividend of RMB 1.00 will be distributed to all shareholders for every 10 shares.
In view that the company's 2025 profit distribution plan has been reviewed and approved by the company's shareholders' meeting and has been implemented, the repurchase price of the restricted stocks initially granted and reserved for grant under the 2023 restricted stock incentive plan will be adjusted as follows:
The adjusted repurchase price of restricted shares per share = the pre-adjusted repurchase price of restricted shares of 2.29 yuan/share - the dividend payout of 0.1 yuan per share = 2.19 yuan/share.
In summary, our lawyers believe that as of the date of issuance of this legal opinion, this adjustment to the repurchase price complies with the relevant provisions of the "Administrative Measures" and the "Incentive Plan".
legal opinion
4. Matters related to the cancellation of this repurchase
According to the ninth meeting of the company's seventh board of directors and the resignation certification documents of the incentive objects provided by the company, the assessment results of each incentive object and the instructions issued by the company, the reasons for the company's repurchase and cancellation, the number of repurchases, the price and the source of funds are as follows:
(1) Reasons and quantities for cancellation of this repurchase
- Incentive target resigns
According to the relevant provisions of the "Incentive Plan", "Incentive objects leave their jobs due to reasons such as resignation, dismissal from the company, layoffs, labor contract/employment agreement expiration and non-renewal, etc. Restricted stocks that have been granted but have not yet been released from sale restrictions shall not be released from sale, and will be repurchased and canceled by the company at the award price. Restricted shares must be fully paid before leaving the company. Restricted shares have been released from sale." "Part of the personal income tax"; "The incentive recipients no longer work in the company due to retirement and resignation. The restricted stocks that have been granted but have not yet been released from sale restrictions shall not be released. The company will repurchase and cancel them based on the grant price plus the sum of the deposit interest of the People's Bank of China for the same period. The individual income tax for the part of the restricted shares that have been released from sale restrictions must be paid before leaving the company."
In view of the fact that the two incentive targets granted for the first time by the company's incentive plan have resigned due to personal reasons, the company will repurchase and cancel a total of 75,000 restricted shares corresponding to the two incentive targets that have been granted but have not yet been released.
2. Failure to meet individual-level performance appraisal requirements
According to the relevant provisions of the "Incentive Plan", "The part of the incentive objects that cannot be lifted from the sales restrictions due to assessment reasons or cannot be completely lifted from the sales restrictions will be repurchased and canceled by the company based on the grant price plus the deposit interest of the People's Bank of China for the same period, and cannot be deferred to the next year."
In view of the fact that the 2025 individual-level assessment results of some of the 22 incentive targets granted to some of the 22 incentive targets for the first time by the company's incentive plan failed to fully meet the standards, the company plans to repurchase and cancel a total of 1,095,000 restricted stocks that have been granted to the above-mentioned incentive targets but have not yet been released.
In summary, the total number of restricted shares repurchased and canceled is 1,170,000 shares, accounting for approximately 0.14% of the company's total share capital before repurchase and cancellation.
legal opinion
(2) Price and source of funds for this repurchase and cancellation
According to the text of this legal opinion "3. Specific circumstances of this adjustment to the repurchase price", the repurchase price of the restricted stocks first granted and reserved for grant under this incentive plan is adjusted to 2.19 yuan/share.
The source of funds for the repurchase and cancellation of restricted shares is the company's own funds.
In summary, our lawyers believe that as of the date of issuance of this legal opinion, the reasons, quantity, price and source of funds for this repurchase and cancellation are in compliance with the relevant provisions of the "Administrative Measures" and the "Incentive Plan".
5. Conclusions
In summary, our lawyers believe that as of the date of issuance of this legal opinion:
(1) The company has fulfilled the necessary approvals and authorizations at this stage for the lifting of sales restrictions, which is in compliance with the relevant provisions of the "Articles of Association", "Management Measures" and "Incentive Plan"; the conditions for lifting the sales restrictions for the third lifting period of the first grant part of the incentive plan and the second lifting period of the reserved grant part have been met, in compliance with the relevant provisions of the "Management Measures" and the "Incentive Plan".
