The Offering
Lock Up, page 10
1. We note your disclosure that you have instructed the Depositary not to accept the deposit of common shares or issue any ADSs for 180 days after the date of the prospectus. Please expand your disclosure to explain the impact of this instruction on purchasers in this offering. For example, please clarify whether purchasers will be unable to withdraw common shares and re-deposit such shares in exchange for ADSs.
The Company respectfully advises the Staff that the instruction it will give the Depositary will only apply to the shares held by the Company’s shareholders, directors, officers and pre-IPO share incentive awards holders, and will not affect purchasers in this offering. In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has removed such disclosure from the Prospectus Summary on page 10 of the Registration Statement to avoid confusion, and revised the disclosures on pages 198 and 208 of the Registration Statement to further explain the impact of this instruction to the Depositary on purchasers in this offering.
