Item 2. Identity and Background.

 

This Schedule 13D is being jointly filed by the following persons pursuant to Rule 13d-1(k) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended:

 

1.                   Kun Dai, a citizen of P.R. China, the chairman of board of directors and the chief executive officer of the Issuer (the “ Founder ”);

 

2.                   Xin Gao Group Limited, a British Virgin Islands company, which is beneficially owned by the Founder through a trust and of which the Founder is the sole director (“ Xin Gao ”); and

 

3.                   Gao Li Group Limited, a British Virgin Islands company, which is wholly owned by the Founder and of which the Founder is the sole director (“ Gao Li ”).

 

The parties listed above are collectively referred to as the “ Reporting Persons .” The business address of all Reporting Persons is 2-5/F, Tower E, LSHM Center, No. 8 Guangshun South Avenue, Chaoyang District, Beijing, 100102, The People’s Republic of China.

 

During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons and, to the best of their knowledge, any of their executive officers and directors, if applicable, has been: (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (ii) a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

 

The Reporting Persons previously reported their beneficial ownership in the Issuer’s Ordinary Shares on Schedule 13G filed on February 11, 2019.

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds.

 

On May 29, 2019, the Issuer entered into a Convertible Note Purchase Agreement (the “ Note Purchase Agreement ”) with a few investors, including Redrock Holding Investments Limited, a business company duly incorporated and validly existing under the Laws of the British Virgin Islands (“ Redrock ”), TPG Growth III SF Pte. Ltd., a private company limited by shares duly incorporated and validly existing under the laws of Singapore (“ TPG ”), and 58.com Holding Inc., a business company duly incorporated and validly existing under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (the “ Strategic Investor ”), among others.

None of the Reporting Persons acquired any shares or other securities of the Issuer through this transaction.

 

In connection with the issuance of the Notes, on June 10, 2019, an Investors’ Rights Agreement (the “ Investors’ Rights Agreement ”) was entered into by and among the Issuer, Redrock, TPG, Strategic Investor (Redrock, TPG and Strategic Investor, each a “ Key Investor ”, and collectively the “ Key Investors ”), each of the Reporting Persons, and JenCap UX, an exempted company incorporated and validly existing under the laws of the Cayman Islands.

SCHEDULE 13D

 

Pursuant to the Investors’ Rights Agreement, during the three years following the issuance of the Notes, which may be extended by another two years if all Key Investors agree to extend (the “ Period ”), the Issuer’s board of directors (the “ Board ”) shall consist of eight directors, among which, subject to certain limitations set forth in the Investors’ Rights Agreement, each of the Key Investors and the Founder shall be entitled to nominate one director, the Key Investors shall be entitled to collectively nominate two independent directors, the Founder shall be entitled to nominate one independent director, and the Board shall appoint the eighth director. Each party to the Investors’ Rights Agreement has agreed that it or he will exercise its or his respective voting rights to (i) elect the directors nominated by each of the Key Investors and the Founder (each a “ Director Nominating Party ”) to the Board, (ii) remove such director from the Board if the Director Nominating Party so determines, and (iii) replace such director as nominated by the Director Nominating Party in the event of a vacancy. In connection with the Reporting Persons’ obligations under the Investors’ Rights Agreement, Xin Gao has granted an equitable share mortgage (the “ Share Mortgage ”) in favor of the Key Investors over the Class B Ordinary Shares it holds in the Issuer, to secure certain of their obligations under the Investors’ Rights Agreement. In addition, pursuant to the Investors’ Rights Agreement, during the Period, the Reporting Persons have agreed that they will not transfer any of the shares they beneficially own in the Issuer without the prior written consent of each of the Key Investors, subject to certain exceptions.

(b)                                  the appointment of an additional receiver to act while the first receiver continues to act.

 

8.6                                The receiver shall be the agent of the Mortgagor (which shall be solely liable for his acts, defaults and remuneration).  The receiver shall not at any time become the agent of the Mortgagee.

 

9.                                       POWERS OF A RECEIVER

 

9.1                                In addition to those powers conferred by law, a receiver shall have and be entitled to exercise in relation to the Mortgagor all the powers set out below:

 

(a)                                  to exercise all rights of the Mortgagee under or pursuant to this Mortgage including all voting and other rights attaching to the Mortgaged Property;

 

(b)                                  to make any arrangement or compromise with others as he shall think fit;

 

(c)                                   to appoint managers, officers and agents for the above purposes at such remuneration as the receiver may determine;

 

(d)                                  to redeem any prior encumbrance and settle and pass the accounts of the encumbrancer and any accounts so settled and passed shall (subject to any manifest error) be conclusive and binding on the Mortgagor and the money so paid shall be deemed an expense properly incurred by the receiver;

 

(e)                                   to pay the proper administrative charges in respect of time spent by his agents and employees in dealing with matters raised by the receiver or relating to the receivership of the Mortgagor;

 

(f)                                    without prejudice to Clause 6.13, to withdraw any Restrictions Notice issued by the Company with respect to any Mortgaged Property, where such withdrawal is permitted by section 273 of the Companies Law and to instruct the registered office provider of the Company to remove any notation relating to any such Restrictions Notice from the Register of Beneficial Ownership; and

 

(g)                                   to do all such other acts and things as may be considered by the receiver to be incidental or conducive to any of the above matters or powers or otherwise incidental or conducive to the preservation, improvement or realisation of the Mortgaged Property or the value thereof.

10.                                FURTHER ASSURANCES

 

10.1                         The Mortgagor and the Company shall, at the Mortgagor’s expense, promptly do all such acts or execute all such documents (including assignments, transfers, mortgages, charges, notices and instructions) as the Mortgagee may specify and in such form as the Mortgagee may reasonably require in order to:

 

(a)                                  perfect or protect the security created or intended to be created under or evidenced by this Mortgage (which may include the execution of a legal mortgage, charge, assignment or other security over all or any of the assets which are, or are intended to be, the subject of this Mortgage) or for the exercise of any rights, powers and remedies of the Mortgagee provided by or pursuant to this Mortgage, the Transaction Documents or by law;

 

(b)                                  confer on the Mortgagee security over any property and assets of the Mortgagor located in any jurisdiction which is (to the extent permitted by local law) equivalent or similar to the security intended to be conferred by or pursuant to this Mortgage; or

 

(c)                                   without prejudice to Clause 6.13, to promptly withdraw any Restrictions Notice issued by the Company with respect to any Mortgaged Property, where such withdrawal is permitted by section 273 of the Companies Law and to instruct the registered office provider of the Company to remove any notation relating to any such Restrictions Notice from the Register of Beneficial Ownership; or

 

(d)                                  following an Event of Default, facilitate the realisation of the assets which are, or are intended to be, the subject of this Mortgage.

 

10.2                         Without limiting the other provisions of this Mortgage, the Mortgagor and the Company shall, at the Mortgagor’s expense, take all such action as is available to it (including making all filings and registrations) as may be necessary for the purpose of the creation, perfection, protection or maintenance of any security conferred or intended to be conferred on the Mortgagee by or pursuant to this Mortgage.

 

11.                                INDEMNITIES

 

11.1                         The Mortgagor will indemnify and save harmless the Mortgagee, any receiver appointed under or pursuant to this Mortgage and their respective agent, manager, officer, employee or advisor from and against any and all expenses, claims, demands, liabilities, losses, taxes, costs, duties, damages, fees and charges suffered, incurred or made by the Mortgagee or such receiver, agent, manager, officer, employee or advisor:

 

(a)                                  in the exercise or purported exercise of any rights, powers or discretions vested in them pursuant to this Mortgage;

 

(b)                                  in the preservation or enforcement of the Mortgagee’s rights under this Mortgage or the priority thereof;

 

(c)                                   on the release of any part of the Mortgaged Property from the security created by this Mortgage;

 

(d)                                  arising out of any breach by the Mortgagor of any term of this Mortgage; or

 

(e)                                   acting or relying on any notice, request or instruction from the Mortgagor which it reasonably believes to be genuine, correct and appropriately authorized,

 

and the Mortgagee or such receiver, agent, manager, officer, employee or advisor may retain and pay all sums in respect of the same out of money received under the powers conferred by this Mortgage.  All amounts suffered, incurred or paid by the Mortgagee or such receiver, agent, manager, officer, employee or advisor or any of them shall be recoverable on a full indemnity basis provided that nothing in this Clause 11.1 shall require the Mortgagor to indemnify and save harmless the Mortgagee from and against any expenses, claims, liabilities, losses, taxes, costs, duties, fees and charges suffered, incurred or made by the Mortgagee as a result of the Mortgagee’s fraud.

 

12


 

11.2                         If, under any applicable law or regulation, and whether pursuant to a judgment being made or registered against the Mortgagor or the bankruptcy or liquidation of the Mortgagor or for any other reason any payment under or in connection with this Mortgage is made or fails to be satisfied in a currency (the “ Payment Currency ”) other than the currency in which such payment is due under or in connection with this Mortgage (the “ Contractual Currency ”), then to the extent that the amount of such payment actually received by the Mortgagee when converted into the Contractual Currency at the rate of exchange, falls short of the amount due under or in connection with this Mortgage, the Mortgagor, as a separate and independent obligation, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Mortgagee against the amount of such shortfall.  For the purposes of this Clause 11.2, “ rate of exchange ” means the rate at which the Mortgagee is able on or about the date of such payment to purchase the Contractual Currency with the Payment Currency and shall take into account any premium and other costs of exchange with respect thereto.

 

11.3                         All payments to be made to the Mortgagee under this Mortgage shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for or on account of tax unless the Mortgagor is required to make such payment subject to the deduction or withholding of tax, in which case the sum payable by the Mortgagor in respect of which such deduction or withholding is required to be made shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of such deduction or withholding, the person on account of whose liability to tax such deduction or withholding has been made receives and retains (free from any liability in respect of any such deduction or withholding) a net sum equal to the sum which it would have received and so retained had no such deduction or withholding been made or required to be made.

 

12.                                POWER OF ATTORNEY

 

12.1                         The Mortgagor, by way of security and in order more fully to secure the performance of its obligations hereunder, hereby irrevocably appoints the Mortgagee and the persons deriving title under it (including, but without any limitation, any receiver) jointly and also severally (with full power of substitution and delegation) to be its attorney-in-fact:

 

(a)                                  to execute and complete in favour of the Mortgagee or its nominees or of any purchaser any documents which the Mortgagee may from time to time require for perfecting the Mortgagee’s title to, for vesting any of the assets and property hereby mortgaged or charged in the Mortgagee or its nominees or in any purchaser or for any of the purposes contemplated in Clause 7.1 hereof;

 

(b)                                  to give effectual discharges for payments, to take and institute on non-payment (if the Mortgagee in its sole discretion so decides) all steps and proceedings in the name of the Mortgagor or of the Mortgagee for the recovery of such moneys, property and assets hereby mortgaged or charged;

 

(c)                                   to agree accounts and make allowances and give time or other indulgence to any surety or other person liable;

 

(d)                                  so as to enable the Mortgagee to carry out in the name of the Mortgagor any obligation imposed on the Mortgagor by this Mortgage (including the execution and delivery of any deeds, mortgages, charges, assignments or other security and any transfers of the Mortgaged Property and the exercise of all the Mortgagor’s rights and discretions in relation to the Mortgaged Property);

 

(e)                                   so as to enable the Mortgagee and any receiver or other person to exercise, or delegate the exercise of, any of the rights, powers and authorities conferred on them by or pursuant to this Mortgage or by law (including the exercise of any right of a legal and beneficial owner of the Mortgaged Property); and

 

13


 

(f)                                    generally for it and in its name and on its behalf and as its act and deed or otherwise execute, seal and deliver and otherwise perfect and do any such legal assignments and other assurances, charges, authorities and documents over the moneys, property and assets hereby charged, and all such deeds, instruments, acts and things which may be required for the full exercise of all or any of the powers conferred or which may be deemed proper on or in connection with any of the purposes aforesaid.

 

12.2                         Notwithstanding any other provision of Clause 12.1, such power shall not be exercisable by or on behalf of the Mortgagee as the case may be until:

 

(a)                                  an Event of Default has occurred; or

 

(b)                                  the Mortgagor has failed to comply with Clause 10.

 

12.3                         The power hereby conferred shall be a general power of attorney and the Mortgagor hereby ratifies and confirms and agrees to ratify and confirm any instrument, act or thing which any attorney appointed pursuant hereto may execute or do.  In relation to the power referred to herein, the exercise by the Mortgagee of such power shall be conclusive evidence of its right to exercise the same.

 

13.                                TERMINATION AND RELEASE

 

13.1                         Subject to Clause 13.2, upon the earliest among (i) the full discharge or payment of the Secured Obligations, (ii) the expiration of the Initial Period and the final resolution of all Events of Default that occurred prior to such expiration, together with any related disputes, either by agreement among the Parties or by final non-appealable order of a court or arbitration tribunal with competent jurisdiction, and (iii) the termination of the IRA pursuant to its terms and the final resolution of all Events of Default that occurred prior to such termination, together with any related disputes, either by agreement among the Parties or by final non-appealable order of a court or arbitration tribunal with competent jurisdiction, the Mortgaged Property shall be released from the security constituted by this Mortgage, the Mortgage and all obligations of the Mortgagor and the Company hereunder shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or any further action by any Party, all rights to the Mortgaged Property shall revert to the Mortgagor, and the Mortgagee shall (at the request and cost of the Mortgagor) execute such documents and do all such reasonable acts as may be necessary to release the Mortgaged Property from the security constituted by this Mortgage and to evidence such termination.  Such release shall not prejudice the rights of the Mortgagee under Clause 11.

 

13.2                         If the Mortgagee considers in good faith that any amount received in payment or purported payment of the Secured Obligations is capable of being avoided or reduced by virtue of any insolvency or other similar laws:

 

(a)                                  the liability of the Mortgagor under this Mortgage and the security constituted by this Mortgage shall continue and such amount shall not be considered to have been irrevocably paid; and

 

(b)                                  the Mortgagee may keep any security held by it in respect of the Mortgagor’s liability under the Transaction Documents in order to protect the Mortgagee and the Secured Parties against any possible claim under insolvency law.  If a claim is made against the Mortgagee or a Secured Party prior to the discharge of any such security, the Mortgagee may keep the security until that claim has finally been dealt with.

 

14.                                NOTICES

 

14.1                         Any notice or other communication given or made under or in connection with the matters contemplated by this Mortgage shall be in accordance with the provisions of section 6.6 (Notices) of the IRA; provided that notices or other communications given or made to the Mortgagee shall be addressed or delivered as follows:

18.                                SUBSEQUENT SECURITY INTERESTS

 

18.1                         If the Mortgagee at any time receives or is deemed to have received notice of any subsequent Security Interest affecting all or any part of the Mortgaged Property or any assignment or transfer of the Mortgaged Property which is prohibited by the terms of this Mortgage, all payments thereafter by or on behalf of the Mortgagor to the Mortgagee shall be treated as having been credited to a new account of the Mortgagor and not as having been applied in reduction of the Secured Obligations as at the time when the Mortgagee received such notice.

 

19.                                EXPENSES

 

19.1                         Each Party shall pay all costs, fees and expenses (including, but not limited to, legal fees and expenses) and taxes thereon incurred by such Party or for which such Party may become liable in connection with:

20.2                         If any of the clauses, conditions, covenants or restrictions (the “ Provision ”) of this Mortgage or any deed or document emanating from it shall be found to be void but would be valid if some part thereof were deleted or modified, then the Provision shall apply with such deletion or modification as may be necessary to make it valid and effective.

 

20.3                         This Mortgage (together with any documents referred to herein) constitutes the whole agreement between the Parties relating to its subject matter and no variations hereof shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by each of Parties.

21.                                LAW AND JURISDICTION

 

21.1                         This Mortgage shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Cayman Islands and the Parties hereby irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of the Cayman Islands, provided that nothing in this clause shall affect the right of the Mortgagee to serve process in any manner permitted by law or limit the right of the Mortgagee to take proceedings with respect to this Mortgage against the Mortgagor in any jurisdiction nor shall the taking of proceedings with respect to this Mortgage in any jurisdiction preclude the Mortgagee from taking proceedings with respect to this Mortgage in any other jurisdiction, whether concurrently or not.

21.3                         Without prejudice to any other mode of service allowed under any relevant law, the Mortgagor:

 

(a)                                  irrevocably appoints the registered office provider of the Company as its agent for service of process in relation to any proceedings before the Cayman Islands courts in connection with this Mortgage and confirms that such agent for service of process has duly accepted such appointment; and
