Material Changes

The company issued Class A ordinary shares and warrants to purchase shares. The offering price was set at 115% of the closing share price on August 20, 2020.
Outlook, Risks, and Unusual Items
Use of Proceeds: Net proceeds are designated for working capital and general corporate purposes.

A mandatory exercise provision allows the company to force exercise if the share price trades at or above $0.405 per share (or $4.05 per ADS) for 20 consecutive trading days, subject to volume and registration conditions.
Risks and Contingencies: The transaction was subject to NYSE approval of the supplemental listing application and the accuracy of representations and warranties. The filing notes customary representations regarding the absence of undisclosed material adverse effects or legal proceedings affecting the transaction.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the final closing date and confirmation of net proceeds received.

- Confirm the status of the NYSE supplemental listing application for the Units.
- Monitor the share price relative to the $0.405 per share threshold to assess the risk of mandatory warrant exercise.
- Check subsequent filings for updates on the utilization of the $11.5 million in working capital.
