Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following at the end thereof:

On April 20, 2021, the Issuer and Merger Sub filed the plan of merger with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands, which was registered by the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands as of April 20, 2021, pursuant to which the Merger became effective on April 20, 2021. As a result of the Merger, the Issuer became a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.

 

At the Effective Time of the Merger, each Ordinary Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger was cancelled and ceased to exist in exchange for the right to receive US$120.00 per share in cash, without interest and net of any applicable withholding taxes, except for (a) Ordinary Shares held by the Issuer as treasury shares or by any direct or indirect subsidiary of the Issuer, which were cancelled and ceased to exist without consideration, (b) Ordinary Shares held by Parent or any direct or indirect subsidiary of Parent (including Ordinary Shares deemed contributed by the Rollover Securityholders to Parent immediately prior to or at the Effective Time of the Merger pursuant to the Support Agreement), which were cancelled and ceased to exist without consideration, (c) Ordinary Shares owned by holders who have validly exercised and not effectively withdrawn or lost their rights to dissent from the merger pursuant to Section 238 of the Companies Law of the Cayman Islands, which were cancelled and ceased to exist in exchange for the right to receive the payment of fair value of such Ordinary Shares determined in accordance with Section 238 of the Companies Law of the Cayman Islands, and (d) Ordinary Shares owned by holders who had previously validly exercised their rights to dissent from the Merger pursuant to Section 238 of the Companies Law of the Cayman Islands and thereafter have effectively withdrawn such rights to dissent pursuant to agreements entered into between such holders and the Issuer prior to the effective time of the Merger, which were cancelled and ceased to exist in exchange for the right to receive such amounts as specified in such agreements.

 

As a result of the Merger, the Ordinary Shares ceased to trade on the NASDAQ Global Select Market prior to the opening of trading on April 21, 2021 and became eligible for delisting from the NASDAQ Global Select Market and termination of registration pursuant to Rules 12g-4(a)(1) and 12h-3(b)(1)(i) of the Exchange Act.

(a)–(b) As a result of the Merger, as described in Item 4 of this Amendment, the Reporting Persons do not beneficially own any Ordinary Shares or have any voting power or dispositive power over any Ordinary Shares.

(c) Except as set forth in Item 4 of this Amendment No. 9 or previously reported in the Schedule 13D, to the knowledge of each of the Reporting Persons, none of the Reporting Persons has effected any transactions in the Ordinary Shares during the past 60 days.
