Securities Act and to certain non-U.S. persons in offshore
transaction in reliance on Regulation S under the U.S. Securities
Act. Alibaba intends to enter into a registration rights agreement
in connection with the offering of the USD Notes, under which it
will agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to file an
exchange offer registration statement to exchange the USD Notes for
a new issue of substantially identical debt securities registered
under the Securities Act or, under specified circumstances, a shelf
registration statement to cover resales of the USD Notes. The RMB
Notes are being offered and sold only to certain non-U.S. persons
in offshore transaction in reliance on Regulation S under the U.S.
Securities Act.
