Item 1 Comment:
This Amendment No. 7 amends and restates in its entirety the Schedule 13D that was originally filed on June 15, 2016, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on February 11, 2019, Amendment No. 2 filed on February 5, 2020, Amendment No. 3 filed on April 6, 2020, Amendment No. 4 filed on June 8, 2020, Amendment No. 5 filed on April 7, 2021 and Amendment No. 6 filed on January 26, 2023 (the "Original Schedule 13D"). This Amendment No. 7 relates to the Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Ordinary Shares") of the Company. This Amendment No. 7 is being filed to update the aggregate percentage of the Ordinary Shares owned by the Reporting Persons due to an increase in the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares from time to time since the date of the filing of the Original Schedule 13D. Based on the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares as reported in its Form 20-F filed on April 25, 2025 with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which increase resulted in a change of over one percent (1%) in the aggregate percentage ownership reported by the Reporting Persons in the Original Schedule 13D. Information given in response to each item shall be deemed incorporated by reference in all other items, as applicable. Capitalized terms not defined in this Amendment No. 7 have the meanings ascribed to them in the Original Schedule 13D. The Company's principal executive offices are located at 24 Raffles Place #17-04 Clifford Centre, Singapore 048621.
The Company's American depositary shares (the "ADSs") each represent 60 Class A ordinary shares. The Reporting Persons (as defined below) beneficially own ordinary shares of the Company. | ||
