Termination of Patent Purchase Agreement
As previously disclosed in a current report on Form 6-K dated June 24, 2024, Fangdd Network Group Ltd. (the “Company”) entered into a patent purchase agreement (the “Patent Purchase Agreement”) to acquire certain patents related to cloud computing technology in China, as part of the Company’s strategy to expand into technology-enabled real estate management business. Under the Patent Purchase Agreement, the purchase price for the patents was US$35,000,000, and if certain conditions were met, the seller was entitled to receive additional earnout payments; in the event the transaction did not close by September 21, 2024, either party could terminate the agreement by providing written notice, without incurring liability to the other party. Since the transaction under the Patent Purchase Agreement did not close, the parties executed a termination agreement (the “Termination Agreement”) on January 15, 2025, through which the parties mutually agreed to terminate the Patent Purchase Agreement and any transactions contemplated thereunder.
The foregoing description of the Termination Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 6-K and incorporated by reference herein.
