ITEM 15.   ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Item 15(c) is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
(c)   Other Material Information
On April 17, 2023, the Company and Merger Sub filed with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands a plan of merger (the “Plan of Merger”), pursuant to which the Merger became effective on April 17, 2023 (the “Effective Time”), with Merger Sub merging with and into the Company and the Company becoming a private company wholly owned by Parent.
Pursuant to the Plan of Merger, at the Effective Time, (i) each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than the Excluded Shares (as defined below), Shares represented by ADSs and dissenting shares) was cancelled in exchange for the right to receive US$1.00 in cash per Share without interest (the “Per Share Merger Consideration”); and (ii) each ADS issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, together with the underlying Shares represented by such ADSs, was cancelled in exchange for the right to receive US$1.00 in cash per ADS without interest (less US$5.00 for each 100 ADSs (or portion thereof) cancellation fees pursuant to the terms of the deposit agreement, dated as of June 11, 2019, by and among the Company, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as depositary for ADSs (the “Depositary”), and all beneficial owners and holders from time to time of ADSs issued thereunder).
The “Excluded Shares” are, collectively, (a) the Rollover Shares, (b) Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs) held by any of Parent, Merger Sub and any of their respective affiliates, (c) Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs) held by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company or held in the Company’s treasury, and (d) any Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs) held by the Depositary and reserved for issuance, settlement and allocation pursuant to the Share Incentive Plan (as defined below).
In addition, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, as of the Effective Time, Parent assumed the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan of the Company adopted on May 2, 2019 (the “Share Incentive Plan”), including all of the obligations of the Company with respect to the Company Options (as defined below) and Company Restricted Shares (as defined below) assumed or converted, respectively, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, subject to any limitations under applicable law.
As of the Effective Time, except as otherwise agreed to in writing among a holder of a Company Option, the Company and Parent, each option to purchase Shares under the Share Incentive Plan (each, a “Company Option,” and collectively, the “Company Options”) granted under the Share Incentive Plan that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was assumed by Parent as an option to purchase, in the case of a Company Option to purchase Class A Ordinary Shares, Class A ordinary shares of Parent having the substantially same voting power as Class A Ordinary Shares, or in the case of a Company Option to purchase Class B Ordinary Shares, Class B ordinary shares of Parent having the substantially same voting power as Class B Ordinary Shares. Each of such outstanding Company Options so assumed by Parent pursuant to the Merger Agreement continued to have, and was subject to, the same terms and conditions (including vesting conditions) set forth in the Share Incentive Plan under which it was granted and the award agreements in respect thereof, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (a) the number of shares of Parent covered by such assumed Company Option equaled the number of Shares subject to such Company Option multiplied by the Exchange Ratio (as defined below), with the result rounded down to the nearest whole share, and (b) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent issuable upon exercise of such assumed Company Option was equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the exercise price per Share at which such
 
2

 
assumed Company Option was exercisable immediately prior to the applicable exercise price per Share underlying such Company Option by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. For the purpose of the Merger Agreement, the “Exchange Ratio” means the ratio of the Per Share Merger Consideration divided by the fair market value of one share of Parent as of the Effective Time.
Except as otherwise agreed to in writing among a holder of a Company Restricted Share, the Company and Parent, each outstanding Share (including Shares represented by ADSs) awarded pursuant to the Share Incentive Plan that is subject to any vesting requirements that remain unsatisfied or vested but remains unsettled (each, a “Company Restricted Share,” and collectively, the “Company Restricted Shares”) granted under the Share Incentive Plan that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was assumed by Parent and converted as of the Effective Time, automatically and without action by the holder of such Company Restricted Share, into that number of Class A ordinary shares of Parent having substantially the same voting power as Class A Ordinary Shares equal to one multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole share, with such converted award continuing to have, and subject to, the same terms and conditions (including vesting conditions) set forth in the Share Incentive Plan under which such Company Restricted Share was issued and the award agreements in respect thereof, as in effect immediately prior the Effective Time.
As a result of the Merger, the ADS program for the ADSs will terminate and the ADSs will no longer be listed on any securities exchange or quotation system, including the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company has requested that trading of the ADSs on the Nasdaq Capital Market be suspended, and that the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) file with the SEC a Form 25 notifying the SEC of Nasdaq’s withdrawal of the ADSs from listing on Nasdaq and intention to withdraw the Shares from registration under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act. The deregistration will become effective 90 days after the filing of Form 25 or such shorter period as may be determined by the SEC. The Company intends to file with the SEC, ten (10) days after Nasdaq files the Form 25, a Form 15 suspending the Company’s reporting obligations under the Exchange Act and withdrawing the registration of the Shares under the Exchange Act. The Company’s obligations to file with or furnish to the SEC certain reports and forms, including Form 20-F and Form 6-K, will be suspended immediately as of the filing date of the Form 15 and will terminate once the deregistration of the Shares becomes effective.
