No Reporting Person has any present plan or proposal to acquire or dispose of any Common Shares, ADSs or GDSs, although consistent with its investment purpose, each Reporting Person at any time and from time to time may acquire additional Common Shares, ADSs, or GDSs or dispose of any or all of its Common Shares, ADSs or GDSs, as applicable, depending upon prevailing market, economic and other conditions, other investment and business opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, liquidity requirements of the Reporting Persons, tax considerations and/or other investment considerations.
