Pursuant to Rule 416(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), this
registration statement also covers an indeterminate number of additional shares which may be offered and issued to prevent dilution from share splits, share dividends or similar transactions as provided in the Amended and Restated 2017 Share
Incentive Plan (the Plan). Any Class A ordinary share covered by an award granted under the Plan (or portion of an award) that terminates, expires, lapses or repurchased for any reason will be deemed not to have been issued for
purposes of determining the maximum aggregate number of Class A ordinary shares that may be issued under the Plan.

|
The amount to be registered represents shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options granted under
the Plan and the corresponding proposed maximum offering price per share represents the exercise price of such outstanding options.

The amount to be registered represents shares issuable upon the vesting of outstanding restricted share units
granted under the Plan, and the corresponding maximum offering price per share, which is estimated solely for the purposes of calculating the registration fee under Rule 457(h) and Rule 457(c) under the Securities Act, is based on $25.38 per ADS,
the average of the high and low prices for the registrants ADSs as quoted on the New York Stock Exchange on September 11, 2018.
|
(5)
|
These shares represent Class A ordinary shares that are reserved for future award grants under the Plan.
The maximum aggregate number of shares which may be issued pursuant to all awards under the Plan is 28,394,117. The proposed maximum offering price per share, which is estimated solely for the purposes of calculating the registration fee under Rule
457(h) and Rule 457(c) under the Securities Act, is based on $25.38 per ADS, the average of the high and low prices for the registrants ADSs as quoted on the New York Stock Exchange on September 11, 2018.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers
|
Cayman Islands law does not limit the extent to which a companys articles of association may provide for indemnification of directors and
officers, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide indemnification against civil fraud or the consequences of committing a crime. The Registrants third
amended and restated articles of association, adopted by its shareholders on May 1, 2018, provide that the Registrant may indemnify its directors and officers all actions, proceedings, costs, charges, expenses, losses, damages or liabilities
incurred or sustained by such Indemnified Person, other than by reason of such Indemnified Persons own dishonesty, wilful default or fraud, in or about the conduct of the Companys business or affairs (including as a result of any mistake
of judgment) or in the execution or discharge of his duties, powers, authorities or discretions, including without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, any costs, expenses, losses or liabilities incurred by such Indemnified Person in
defending (whether successfully or otherwise) any civil proceedings concerning the Company or its affairs in any court whether in the Cayman Islands or elsewhere.
2
Pursuant to the indemnification agreements, the form of which was filed as Exhibit 10.3 to
the Registrants registration statement on Form
F-1,
as amended (File
No. 333-224202),
the Registrant has agreed to indemnify its directors and officers
against certain liabilities and expenses incurred by such persons in connection with claims made by reason of their being such a director or officer.
Pursuant to the Plan, which was respectively filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Registrants registration statement on Form
F-1,
as amended (File
No. 333-224202),
the Registrant has agreed to indemnify its plan administrative committee members and other directors against certain liabilities
and expenses incurred by such persons in connection with claims made by reason of any action or failure to act pursuant to the Plan.
The
Underwriting Agreement, the form of which was filed as Exhibit 1.1 to the Registrants registration statement on Form
F-1,
as amended (File
No. 333-224202),
also provides for indemnification of the Registrant for certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act, but only to the extent that such liabilities are caused by information relating to the underwriters furnished to the
Registrant in writing expressly for use in such registration statement and certain other disclosure documents.
Insofar as indemnification
for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
The Registrant also maintains
a directors and officers liability insurance policy for its directors and officers.
Item 7.
|
Exemption From Registration Claimed
|
Not applicable.
See the Index to Exhibits attached hereto.
|
(a)
|
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
|
|
(1)
|
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this
registration statement:
|
|
(i)
|
to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
|
|
(ii)
|
to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this registration
statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this registration statement; and
|
|
(iii)
|
to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the
registration statement or any material change to that information in the registration statement;
|
provided,
however
, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant
pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement;
3
|
(2)
|
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment
shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
|
|
(3)
|
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which
remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
|
|
(b)
|
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each filing of the Registrants annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plans annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in this registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof.
|
|
(c)
|
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors,
officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
