Amendment No. 10 discloses only information that has changed since the filing of Amendment No. 9, and amends and supplements disclosure under Item 6 contained in the Statement, and amends and restates Item 5 of the Statement.

 

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 of the Statement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“The percentages used herein are based on 134,230,689 outstanding Ordinary Shares as of March 31, 2019, as reported in the Form 6-K filed on May 17, 2019.

(a) Zhengdong Zhu and Baohong Yin may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of an aggregate of 53,646,761 Shares, consisting of (i) 44,800,245 ordinary shares and 2,179,999 ADSs, representing 8,719,996 ordinary shares, held by Champion Shine Trading Limited (“CST”), a company wholly owned by Zhengdong Zhu; (ii) 30,000 ordinary shares held by Baohong Yin; and (iii) 96,520 ordinary shares held by Zhengdong Zhu. Zhengdong Zhu and Baohong Yin are husband and wife. Therefore, Baohong Yin may be deemed to share the voting and dispositive power over the ordinary shares beneficially held by Zhengdong Zhu and vice versa. Such Shares represent approximately 39.97% of the Ordinary Shares that were deemed to be outstanding for purposes of calculating the beneficial ownership of such persons under Rule 13d-3(d)(1) of the Exchange Act.

CST may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of an aggregate of 53,520,241 Shares, consisting of 44,800,245 ordinary shares and 2,179,999 ADSs, representing 8,719,996 ordinary shares. Such Shares represent approximately 39.87% of the Ordinary Shares that were deemed to be outstanding for purposes of calculating the beneficial ownership of such persons under Rule 13d-3(d)(1) of the Exchange Act.

(b) Zhengdong Zhu and Baohong Yin may be deemed to exercise shared power to vote or to direct the vote and shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of an aggregate of 53,646,761 Shares.


CUSIP No. 16944W104   13D/A   Page 5 of 6

 

CST may be deemed to exercise shared power to vote or to direct the vote and shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of an aggregate of 53,520,241 Shares.

(c) As described in greater detail in Item 6, below, on June 28, 2019 and on July 3, 2019, CST charged an additional 533,334 ADSs and 8,220,485 Ordinary Shares, respectively, to Alpha. (d) - (e) Not applicable.”

 

Item 6.

Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Item 6 of the Statement is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:

“As described in Item 3 and Item 6 of Amendment No. 6, filed June 25, 2018, on June 19, 2018, CST, Zhu Zhengdong and Yin Baohong entered into the Loan Agreement with Alpha.

Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, if the market value of the Ordinary Shares and ADSs charged to Alpha, combined with the unutilized portion of the loan from Alpha and any other assets allowed by Alpha to be acquired using the proceeds of the loan, when divided $25 million (the “Floating Pledge Ratio”), is less than 1.6, Alpha may require CST to charge additional Ordinary Shares and ADSs to Alpha such that the Floating Pledge Ratio is no less than 2.0. Similarly, both the Charge over Shares described in Item 6 of, and filed as Exhibit 2 to, Amendment No. 6, and the Additional Share Charge described in Item 6 of, and filed as Exhibit 2 to, Amendment No. 7, filed August 22, 2018, require that CST charge additional Ordinary Shares and ADSs, respectively, to Alpha if the Floating Pledge Ratio is lower than 1.6.

On June 28, 2019, and on July 3, 2019, respectively, due to fluctuations in the market price of the Ordinary Shares and ADSs that rendered the Floating Pledge Ratio below 1.6, CST charged an additional 533,334 ADSs and 8,220,485 Ordinary Shares to Alpha pursuant to the Additional Share Charge and Charge over Shares, respectively.”
