2012 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

TO BE HELD ON SEPTEMBER 6, 2012

PROXY STATEMENT

General

We are soliciting proxies on behalf of our board of directors for use at the annual general meeting of shareholders to be held on September 6, 2012 at 10:00 a.m., Beijing time, or at any adjournment or postponement thereof.  The annual general meeting will be held at our offices located at 26/F, SP Tower D, Tsinghua Science Park Building 8, No. 1 Zhongguancun East Road, Haidian District, Beijing, People’s Republic of China 100084.

This proxy statement is available to shareholders beginning on August 1, 2012 and the form of proxy is first being mailed to shareholders on or about August 1, 2012.

Revocability of Proxies

Any proxy given pursuant to this solicitation may be revoked by the person giving it at any time before its use by delivering a written notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date or, if you hold ordinary shares, by attending the annual general meeting and voting in person.  Attendance at the annual general meeting in and of itself does not revoke a prior proxy.  A written notice of revocation must be delivered to the attention of Mr. Onward Choi, our Acting Chief Financial Officer, if you hold our ordinary shares, or to The Bank of New York Mellon if you hold American Depositary Shares, known as ADSs, representing our ordinary shares.

Record Date, Share Ownership and Quorum

Shareholders of record at the close of business on July 25, 2012 are entitled to vote at the annual general meeting.  Our ordinary shares underlying ADSs are included for purposes of this determination.  As of June 30, 2012, 3,287,291,006 of our ordinary shares, par value US$0.0001 per share, were outstanding, of which approximately 1,881,290,740 were represented by ADSs.  The presence of at least two ordinary shareholders in person or by proxy will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the annual general meeting; provided, however, that in no case shall such quorum represent less than 33 1/3% of our outstanding ordinary shares.

Voting and Solicitation

Each share outstanding on the record date is entitled to one vote.  Voting by holders of ordinary shares at the annual general meeting will be by a show of hands unless the chairman of the meeting or any shareholder present in person or by proxy demands that a poll be taken.  Holders of ADSs cannot vote at such meeting.

1

The costs of soliciting proxies will be borne by our company.  Proxies may be solicited by certain of our directors, officers and regular employees, without additional compensation, in person or by telephone or electronic mail.  The solicitation materials are available on our company’s website at http://ir.netease.com.  Hard copies of the solicitation materials are available upon request to shareholders free of charge.

Voting by Holders of Ordinary Shares

When proxies are properly dated, executed and returned by holders of ordinary shares, the shares they represent will be voted at the annual general meeting in accordance with the instructions of the shareholder.  If no specific instructions are given by such holders, the shares will be voted “FOR” proposals 1 and 2 and in the proxy holder’s discretion as to other matters that may properly come before the annual general meeting.  Abstentions by holders of ordinary shares are included in the determination of the number of shares present and voting but are not counted as votes for or against a proposal.  Broker non-votes will not be counted towards a quorum or for any purpose in determining whether the proposal is approved.

Voting by Holders of American Depositary Shares

The Bank of New York Mellon, as depositary of the ADSs, has advised us that it intends to mail to all owners of ADSs the Notice of 2012 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders and an ADS Voting Instruction Card.  Upon the delivery of a signed and completed ADS Voting Instruction Card as instructed therein, The Bank of New York Mellon will endeavor, to the extent practicable, to vote or cause to be voted the amount of ordinary shares represented by the ADSs, evidenced by American Depositary Receipts related to those ADSs, in accordance with the instructions set forth in such request.  The Bank of New York Mellon has advised us that it will not vote or attempt to exercise the right to vote other than in accordance with those instructions.  As the holder of record for all the shares represented by the ADSs, only The Bank of New York Mellon may vote those shares at the annual general meeting.

The Bank of New York Mellon and its agents are not responsible if they fail to carry out your voting instructions or for the manner in which they carry out your voting instructions.  This means that if the ordinary shares underlying your ADSs are not able to be voted at the annual general meeting, there may be nothing you can do.

If (i) the enclosed ADS Voting Instruction Card is signed but is missing voting instructions, (ii) the enclosed ADS Voting Instruction Card is improperly completed or (iii) no ADS Voting Instruction Card is received by The Bank of New York Mellon from a holder of ADSs prior to 5:00 p.m., New York Time, on August 30, 2012, The Bank of New York Mellon will deem such holder of ADSs to have instructed it to give a proxy to the chairman of the annual general meeting to vote in favor of each proposal recommended by our board of directors and against each proposal opposed by our board of directors.

Deadline for Shareholder Proposals

Proposals which our shareholders wish to be considered for inclusion in our proxy statement and proxy card for the 2013 annual general meeting must be received by April 1, 2013 at 26/F, SP Tower D, Tsinghua Science Park Building 8, No. 1 Zhongguancun East Road, Haidian District, Beijing 100084, People’s Republic of China.  The submission of a proposal does not assure that it will be included in the proxy statement or the proxy card.

SHAREHOLDER COMMUNICATIONS WITH

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The following procedures have been established by our board of directors in order to facilitate communications between our shareholders and our board of directors:
