2025 Annual General Meeting Proposals for Director Re-election and Auditor Re-appointment

ATA Creativity Global's 2025 Annual General Meeting, scheduled for December 3, 2025, will address two key proposals: (1) Re-election of Class C directors Hope Ni and Alec Tsui, both independent directors with extensive governance experience, and (2) Re-appointment of Audit Alliance LLP as independent auditor for FY2025. The virtual-only meeting requires shareholders of record as of October 20, 2025, to vote via proxy or ADS instructions. The proxy statement outlines voting procedures for common shareholders and ADS holders, emphasizing that Citibank, N.A. will vote ADS-held shares according to submitted instructions. The board unanimously recommends approval of both proposals, which require a simple majority vote. The filing also details quorum requirements, revocation procedures, and provides access to the 2024 Annual Report on Form 20-F.
