First Amended and Restated Voting Agreement

 

The Issuer, Joseph C. Tsai, SoftBank Group Corp., and each such shareholder’s Subordinate Shareholders (as defined therein), and, solely for limited purposes, Jack Yun Ma, are parties to an Amended and Restated Voting Agreement, dated as of December 17, 2021 (the “Amended Voting Agreement”). The Amended Voting Agreement amended and restated a Voting Agreement, dated as of September 18, 2014 (the “Prior Voting Agreement”), by and among the Issuer, Jack Yun Ma, Joseph C. Tsai, Altaba Inc. (f/k/a Yahoo! Inc.), SoftBank Group Corp. (f/k/a SoftBank Corp.), and each such shareholders’ Subordinate Shareholders (as defined therein). Under the Prior Voting Agreement, among other things, Jack Yun Ma and Joseph C. Tsai shared the right to vote by proxy certain Ordinary Shares held by SoftBank Group Corp. on certain matters and they and their Subordinate Shareholders (as defined in the Prior Voting Agreement) had an obligation to vote in favor of SoftBank Group Corp.’s director nominee as well as the Alibaba Partnership Designees (as defined in the Prior Voting Agreement). The Amended Voting Agreement amended and restated the Prior Voting Agreement in order to, among other things, remove Jack Yun Ma and his Subordinate Shareholders as parties thereto and deleted certain provisions of the Prior Voting Agreement that were no longer relevant.

 

Pursuant to the Amended Voting Agreement, the parties thereto agreed, among other things, that:

 

·      SoftBank Group Corp. be permitted to nominate one director to the Issuer’s board of directors for so long as SoftBank Group Corp. and certain of its affiliates own 15% or more of the Issuer’s outstanding Ordinary Shares;

 

·      SoftBank Group Corp. will (i) vote its Ordinary Shares in favor of the election of persons nominated to be directors by Lakeside Partners, L.P., a Cayman limited partnership (the “Alibaba Partnership”) until SoftBank Group Corp. and certain of its affiliates own less than 15% of the Issuer’s outstanding Ordinary Shares and (ii) grant the voting power of any portion of its holdings in Ordinary Shares exceeding 30% of the Issuer’s outstanding Ordinary Shares to Joseph C. Tsai by proxy (although on December 31, 2021, SoftBank Group Corp. owned less than 30% of the Issuer’s outstanding Ordinary Shares and, therefore, Joseph C. Tsai did not have voting power over any Ordinary Shares held by SoftBank Group Corp.); and

 

·      Joseph C. Tsai will vote the Ordinary Shares he owns and any other Ordinary Shares over which he holds voting rights in favor of the election of SoftBank Group Corp.’s director nominee for so long as SoftBank Group Corp. and certain of its affiliates own 15% or more of the Issuer’s outstanding Ordinary Shares.

     

 

 

 

 

SoftBank Group Corp.’s proxy obligations described in clause (ii) in the second bullet above shall (1) not apply in respect of any proposal submitted to the Issuer’s shareholders that may result in an issuance of Ordinary Shares or other equity interests of the Issuer, including securities exchangeable or convertible into Ordinary Shares, that would increase the amount of the Issuer’s then-outstanding Ordinary Shares by 3% or more and (2) terminate when Jack Yun Ma owns less than 1% of the Issuer’s issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares on a fully diluted basis or if the Issuer materially breaches the Amended Voting Agreement.

 

Based on the voting arrangements among the parties to the Amended Voting Agreement described above and certain relationships described below, each of Joseph C. Tsai, SoftBank Group Corp., and affiliates controlled by SoftBank Group Corp. may be deemed to be members of a group that may have been deemed to beneficially own the following Ordinary Shares as of December 31, 2021:

   

·      1,597,022,865 Ordinary Shares held directly by SoftBank Group Corp.;

 

·      3,748,039,079 Ordinary Shares held directly by certain affiliates of SoftBank Group Corp.;

 

·      194,392 Ordinary Shares held directly by Joseph C. Tsai;

 

·      1,280,000 Ordinary Shares held directly by Clara Wu Ming-Hua, Joseph C. Tsai’s spouse;

 

·      400,000,000 Ordinary Shares held directly by APN Ltd. (see the section below entitled “—APN Ltd.” for more information about these Ordinary Shares);

 

·      21,763,832 Ordinary Shares held directly by Joe and Clara Tsai Foundation Limited (see the section below entitled “—Joe and Clara Tsai Foundation Limited” for more information about these Ordinary Shares);

 

·      147,385,672 Ordinary Shares held directly by Parufam Limited (see the section below entitled “—Parufam Limited” for more information about these Ordinary Shares); and

 

·      17,539,168 Ordinary Shares held directly by PMH Holding Limited (see the section below entitled “—PMH Holding Limited” for more information about these Ordinary Shares).

     
   

APN Ltd. 

 

As of December 31, 2021, APN Ltd. directly held 400,000,000 Ordinary Shares. Jack Yun Ma is the majority equityholder, Joseph C. Tsai the minority equityholder and Jack Yun Ma and Joseph C. Tsai are directors of APN Ltd. Accordingly, Jack Yun Ma and Joseph C. Tsai may have been deemed to share voting and dispositive power over the Ordinary Shares owned by APN Ltd. and therefore, be deemed to beneficially own such Ordinary Shares. APN Ltd. has granted Joseph C. Tsai a revocable proxy to vote 120,000,000 Ordinary Shares owned by APN Ltd.

 

Joe and Clara Tsai Foundation Limited

 

As of December 31, 2021, the Joe and Clara Tsai Foundation Limited directly held 21,763,832 Ordinary Shares. Joseph C.

Parufam Limited

 

As of December 31, 2021, Parufam Limited directly held 147,385,672 Ordinary Shares. Joseph C.

PMH Holding Limited

 

As of December 31, 2021, PMH Holding Limited directly held 17,539,168 Ordinary Shares. Joseph C. Tsai is the sole director of PMH Holding Limited with voting and dispositive power over the Ordinary Shares owned by PMH Holding Limited and may, therefore, have been deemed to beneficially own such Ordinary Shares. PMH Holding Limited has also granted Joseph C. Tsai a revocable proxy to vote the Ordinary Shares owned by PMH Holding Limited.

     
  Jack Yun Ma and Related Entities
     
    As of both December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, each of Jack Yun Ma, HSBC Trustee (C.I.) Limited as trustee of Jack Ma Philanthropic Foundation, JC Properties Limited, JSP Investment Limited, Ying Capital Limited, and Yun Capital Limited (collectively, the “Exit Parties”) beneficially owned less than five percent of the Issuer’s outstanding Ordinary Shares. Under the Prior Voting Agreement, the Exit Parties had, or were subject to, certain agreements with the other parties to the Prior Voting Agreement with respect to the voting of the Ordinary Shares. As a result of these agreements, the Exit Parties did not treat Amendment No. 6 to the Schedule 13G as an “exit filing,” despite falling below the five percent beneficial ownership threshold at such time. The execution of the Amended Voting Agreement on December 17, 2021, severed all agreements between the Exit Parties and the other parties to the Prior Voting Agreement with respect to the voting or disposition of Ordinary Shares.

If this statement is being filed to report the fact that as of the date hereof the reporting person has ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the class of securities, check the following *

 

*This Amendment No. 7 is being filed to report that as of December 31, 2021, each of the Exit Parties had ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of Issuer’s Ordinary Shares or a member of group that in the aggregate was the beneficial owner of more than five percent of Issuer’s Ordinary Shares. This Amendment No. 7 shall represent an “exit filing” solely with respect to the Exit Parties.

The Investment Committee of Jack Ma Philanthropic Foundation, which is made up of Jack Yun Ma and his spouse, has the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, Ordinary Shares held by Ying Capital Limited and Yun Capital Limited. The Joe and Clara Tsai Foundation has the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, Ordinary Shares held by the Joe and Clara Tsai Foundation Limited.

 

  Except as set forth above and in Item 4 hereof, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, no one other than the Reporting Persons or the equityholders of the Reporting Persons, where applicable, has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of outstanding Ordinary Shares.
   
Item 7. Identification and Classification of the Subsidiary Which Acquired the Security Being Reported on By the Parent Holding Company.
   
  Not Applicable.

The parties to the Amended Voting Agreement may be deemed to be a “group” pursuant to Rule 13d-5 of the Act. If the parties to the Amended Voting Agreement are deemed to be a group, the members of such group would be Joseph C. Tsai, Clara Wu Ming-Hua, APN Ltd., Joe and Clara Tsai Foundation Limited, Parufam Limited, PMH Holding Limited, SoftBank Group Corp., and certain of SoftBank Group Corp.’s controlled affiliates.

 

The Reporting Persons have agreed to jointly file this Amendment No. 7 in accordance with Rule 13d-1(k) of the Act, the agreement with respect to which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. Each Reporting Person expressly disclaims beneficial ownership with respect to any Ordinary Shares of the Issuer other than the Ordinary Shares directly held by such Reporting Person.

   
Item 9. Notice of Dissolution of Group.
   
 

To the extent that the Exit Parties may have been deemed to be members of a “group” with the other parties to the Prior Voting Agreement pursuant to Rule 13d-5 of the Act, they ceased to be members of such group on December 17, 2021 upon the execution of the Amended Voting Agreement. Any further filings by such persons with respect to transactions involving the Ordinary Shares will be filed, if required, by such persons, in their individual capacity.
