    (a)-(b)

    The responses of each Reporting Person to Rows (7) through (13), including the footnotes thereto, of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D and Item 2 above are hereby incorporated by reference in this Item 5.

    As a result of entering into the Support Agreement, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be a member of a “group” with certain other shareholders of the Company that entered into similar support agreements (collectively, the “Other Rollover Shareholders”) (the “Rollover Shareholder Group”) pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Act, who are separately reporting beneficial ownership on Schedules 13D. The Rollover Shareholder Group is deemed to collectively own 481,464,108 Class A Ordinary Shares in the aggregate, representing 154,802,607 Class A Ordinary Shares (including 35,005,686 Class A Ordinary Shares represented by 17,502,843 ADSs) and 326,661,501 Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of 326,661,501 Class B Ordinary Shares held by the Rollover Shareholder Group.

    However, each Reporting Person expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of the Ordinary Shares beneficially owned (or deemed to be beneficially owned) by any of the Other Rollover Shareholders and neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that any of the Reporting Persons beneficially owns any Ordinary Shares that are beneficially owned (or deemed to be beneficially owned) by any of the Other Rollover Shareholders.

    The Reporting Persons are only responsible for the information contained in this Schedule 13D and assume no responsibility for information contained in the Schedules 13D filed by the Other Rollover Shareholders. The filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that any of the Reporting Persons is, for purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Act or for any other purpose, the beneficial owner of any securities (other than the securities directly held by such Reporting Person) covered by this Schedule 13D.

     

    (c)

    Except as disclosed in this Schedule 13D, none of the Reporting Persons has effected any transaction in the Ordinary Shares during the past 60 days.

     

    (d)

    Except as disclosed in this Schedule 13D, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, no other person has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by any of the Reporting Persons.

     

    (e)

    Not applicable.

    Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

    The information disclosed under Item 4 above is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 6.

    Except as described above or elsewhere in this Schedule 13D or incorporated by reference in this Schedule 13D, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) between the Reporting Persons or, to the best of their knowledge, any other person with respect to any securities of the Company, including, but not limited to, transfer or voting of any securities, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or losses, or the giving or withholding of proxies.

    Item 7. Material to be Filed as Exhibits.

     

    Exhibit No.    Description
    A    Agreement Regarding the Joint Filing of Schedule 13G, dated August 21, 2023, by and among the Reporting Persons
    B    Support Agreement, dated August 11, 2023, by and among Zeta, Topco and Parent.
