Xunlei Limited Adopted Amended and Restated 2020 Share Incentive Plan

 

On March 13, 2023, the board of directors of Xunlei Limited (the “Company”) amended and restated its 2020 share incentive plan, which was approved and adopted by the board of directors of the Company on June 30, 2020, to expand the existing award pool of 31,000,000 shares by authorizing the issuance of additional 15,561,200 shares. The additional shares that will be issued pursuant to awards to be granted from the expanded portion of the enlarged pool will be issued from 15,561,200 common shares underlying 3,112,240 American depository shares repurchased by the Company under the share repurchase program adopted by the Company in March 2022.

 

To effect the award pool expansion, Article 3.1(a) of the Company’s 2020 share incentive plan was replaced in its entirety as follows: “Subject to the provisions of Article 9 and Section 3.1(b), the maximum aggregate number of Shares which may be issued pursuant to all Awards (including Incentive Share Options) shall be 46,561,200 Shares.” All other provisions of the 2020 share incentive plan remain substantially the same.

 

After the award pool expansion, the maximum aggregate number of shares of the Company available for grant of awards was increased from 31,000,000 under the original 2020 share incentive plan to 46,561,200 under the amended and restated 2020 share incentive plan.
