Item 2 is hereby amended and supplemented in its entirety as follows:

 

The agreement between the Reporting Persons relating to the joint filing of this statement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. Information with respect to each of the Reporting Persons is given solely by such Reporting Person, and no Reporting Person assumes responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the information concerning the other Reporting Persons, except as otherwise provided in Rule 13d-1(k).

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

The information set forth in Items 2, 4 and 6 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3.

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

 

Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented in its entirety as follows:

 

To combine the respective strength of the Issuer and Puyi Inc. (“Puyi”) in insurance distribution and wealth management services and accelerate the Issuer’s transition from a sales oriented company to a globally leading technology-driven financial service platform provider, since September 2023, Mr. Yinan Hu has held several preliminary discussions with Puyi on several options of collaboration including a potential share exchange. On December 25, 2023, Mr. Hu and Puyi formed a preliminary intent to exchange 200,359,570 Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by him, consisting of 189,698,110 Ordinary Shares directly held by Sea Synergy and 10,661,460 Ordinary Shares held through Kingsford Resources Limited (“Kingsford”), for a total of 100,179,785 newly issued ordinary shares of Puyi, for an exchange ratio of 2 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer for every ordinary share of Puyi (“Proposed Share Exchange”). On the same date, Mr. Hu informed certain other shareholders of the Issuer of the Proposed Share Exchange, including certain executive officers of the Issuer, certain employees, and certain other shareholders who are not affiliated with the Issuer (collectively “Certain Other Shareholders”). Subsequently, such Certain Other Shareholders held separate negotiations with Puyi on the participation in the Proposed Share Exchange.

 

 

On December 27, 2023, Sea Synergy, which is 100% beneficially owned by Mr. Yinan Hu, and the shareholding vehicles of certain other executive officers of the Issuer entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Puyi Inc. (“Puyi”), pursuant to which Sea Synergy agreed to exchange 189,698,110 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer beneficially owned by Sea Synergy for 94,849,055 newly issued ordinary shares of Puyi. The exchange ratio is 2 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer per ordinary share of Puyi. Concurrently, Puyi has also entered into a similar share exchange agreement with Certain Other Shareholders. Participants to the share exchange transactions are collectively referred to as the “Participating Shareholders”. Upon completion of the transactions, which is subject to customary closing conditions, Sea Synergy and other Participating Shareholders will collectively own 76.7% of the equity interests of Puyi while Puyi will own 50.1% of the equity interests of the Issuer.

 

The foregoing description of the Share Exchange Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Share Exchange Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 99.3 hereto and which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Company

 

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

 

(a), (b) The following table sets forth the beneficial ownership of Ordinary Shares of the Issuer for each of the Reporting Persons.

Summer Day(3)			189,698,110				16.72	%			0				189,698,110				0				189,698,110
Yinan Hu(4)			199,739,310				17.60	%			10,041,200				189,698,110				10,041,200				189,698,110

In addition, Kingsford, a holding company without any substantive operations, directly holds 39,252,100 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer and is 27.2% owned by Mr. Hu, with the remaining 72.8% owned by certain executive officers of the Issuer.

 

Each Reporting Person hereby disclaims beneficial ownership of any Ordinary Shares of the Issuer beneficially owned by any other Reporting Person or any of the Other Participating Shareholders, who collectively hold an aggregate of 568,226,628 Ordinary Shares, representing 50.1% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares (inclusive of the reported securities). and hereby disclaims membership in a “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) with any Other Participating Shareholder. Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission by either of the Reporting Persons that it is the beneficial owner of any of the Ordinary Shares referred to herein for the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act, or for any other purpose, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed by each Reporting Person, other than with respect to securities reported as directly held by such Reporting Person. 

 

 

(c)

During the 60 days preceding the filing of this Schedule 13D/A, none of the Reporting Persons and, to their knowledge, none of the directors and officers of Sea Synergy or Summer Day has effected any transactions in the Ordinary Shares except as reported herein.

 

(d)

(e)

Not applicable.
