BEIJING, November 15, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Tarena International, Inc. (Nasdaq: TEDU) (“Tarena” or the “Company”), a leading provider of adult professional education and childhood & adolescent quality education services in China, today announced that the Company and the buyer group (the “Buyer Group Parties”) consisting of Mr. Han Shaoyun, Ascendent Capital Partners III, L.P., Kidedu Holdings Limited (“Parent”), Kidarena Merger Sub, a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”) and Kidtech Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Mr. Han Shaoyun, have mutually agreed to terminate the previously announced Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated April 30, 2021. All parties have entered into a Termination and Settlement Agreement (the “Termination Agreement”) with respect to the mutual termination.

The Company and the Buyer Group Parties were in disagreement on specific terms and conditions within the Merger Agreement. Subsequently, the Company delivered a written notice to the Buyer Group Parties on September 30, 2021, informing them of the Company’s intention to terminate the Merger Agreement. In order to resolve such differences, the parties engaged in good-faith discussions to proactively explore solutions. Ultimately, all parties mutually agreed to terminate the Merger Agreement and release the parties’ obligations thereunder subject to the terms of the Termination Agreement.

Pursuant to the Termination Agreement, in connection with the amicable settlement and mutual termination, the Buyer Group Parties will pay a settlement payment of US$3.53 million to the Company by November 26, 2021. The Merger Agreement will be terminated upon receipt by the Company of such payment in full within the aforementioned time period.

The Company believes that the settlement is in the best interests of the shareholders and will continue to evaluate strategic options available to the Company. “We are committed to our growth strategy of continuous quality upgrade of our excellent educational products and services and relentless enhancement in our operational efficiencies. In the second quarter of 2021, our total net revenues and gross profit margin increased significantly and net loss decreased substantially compared to the same period of last year. The Company expects its total net revenues for the third quarter of 2021 to exceed its financial results for the second quarter. We believe that the Company can maintain a sustainable growth in the adult professional education and childhood & adolescent quality education businesses.” remarked Ms. Ying Sun, the Chief Executive Officer of Tarena.

To that end, with respect to the Released Claims only, the parties expressly waive and relinquish any and all provisions, rights and benefits conferred by any Law of the United States or of any state or territory of the United States or of any other relevant jurisdiction, or principle of common law, under which a general release does not extend to claims which the parties do not know or suspect to exist in their favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by the parties might have affected the parties’ settlement.
