Management’s Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The disclosure for Scienjoy as of and for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019 are contained in the Proxy Statement in the section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Scienjoy” beginning on page 129 and is incorporated herein by reference. The following discussion and analysis are for Scienjoy as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2020.

 

Overview

 

We are a leading provider of mobile entertainment live streaming platforms in China and operates its platforms on both PC and mobile apps, through which users can enjoy immersive and interactive entertainment live streaming. We had approximately 209 million registered users by the end of March 31, 2020. The number of active users increased by 10% from approximately of 11.1 million in the same period of last year to approximately 12.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

 

We adopt a multi-platform strategy and all platforms are categorized as “SHOW live streaming” in which professional broadcasters provide live streaming entertainment for users primarily in the form of performances (such as singing, dancing, and talk shows). Broadcasters on all platforms have been professionally trained by relevant broadcaster agents to provide more professional content. Despite the similarity in contents, the different platforms adopt different operation strategies, such as, to name a few, different broadcaster policy, events, promotion, and games. We provide a technological infrastructure to enable broadcasters, online users and viewers to interact with each other during live streaming. All platforms can be accessed for free. We mainly derive our revenue from sales of virtual items on the platforms. Users can purchase virtual currency to purchase virtual items for use on the platforms. Users can recharge their virtual currency on the platforms through various online third-party payment platforms, such as WeChat Pay or AliPay.

On January 10, 2020, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with the former shareholder of Lixiaozhi (Chongqing) Internet Technology Co., Ltd. (“LXZ”) to acquire 100% equity interest in LXZ with a cash consideration of RMB200 (US$28). We believe the acquisition of LXZ helps to enrich its product line, expand its user base and capitalize on the growth potential in the live streaming market.

 

Coronavirus (“COVID-19”) updates

 

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused widespread disruptions in the first quarter of 2020. During the first quarter, our operations were closed during January and February due to China government mandates and we moved quickly to transition our colleague base to a fully remote working environment in all our locations. We have sought to ensure our colleagues feel secure in their jobs and have the flexibility and resources they need to stay safe and healthy. To support our online users and broadcasters, we are optimizing our technology system to support potential growth in user traffic and adding more live streaming entertainment contents for longer view time as well as continuing to provide the high level of technical support service they expect and rely on. Since the beginning of March 2020, substantially all of our employee have been back to work in our offices. During the first quarter of 2020, despite the pandemic outbreak caused by COVID-19, our users staying at home are spending more time online, including watching livestreaming shows, as a result, we continued to see solid growth in line with the quarter of last year. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, our revenue increased by 15% to RMB216.3 million from RMB188.6 million in the same quarter of last year and our net income increased by 40% to RMB37.7 million from RMB26.9 million in the same quarter of last year.

 

In the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic did not have a material net impact on our consolidated financial positions and operating results. The extent of the impact on our second quarter 2020 results and beyond will be dependent on future developments such as the length and severity of the crisis, the potential resurgence of the crisis, future government actions in response to the crisis and the overall impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy and capital markets, among many other factors, all of which remain highly uncertain and unpredictable. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic could impact the health of our management team and other employees. The Company continues taking actions to help mitigate, as best we can, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the health and well-being of our employees, the communities in which we operate and our partners, as well as the impact on our operations and business as a whole. However, there can be no assurance that the COVID-19 pandemic will not have a material and adverse impact on our operations, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations if the current situation continue.

Revenues

 

Our revenues consist of live streaming revenue and technical services revenue. We also generate technical services revenue from providing technical development and advisory services, but the technical services revenue accounts for less than 1% of revenue and is immaterial. We generates its revenue mostly from the sales of virtual items used in its live streaming business.

 

Virtual items are categorized as consumable and time-based items. Consumable items, as virtual gift service, are consumed and used by users upon purchase, while time-based virtual items, such as privilege titles, could be used for a fixed period of time. Accordingly, revenue is recognized at the time when the virtual item is delivered and consumed if the virtual item is a consumable item or, in the case of time-based virtual item, recognized ratably over the period each virtual item is made available to the user, which is usually over one to multiple months and does not exceed one year. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2020, revenue from consumable virtual items represented approximately 97% of the total net revenue.

 

As we continue to grow its live streaming business, and enhance its user engagement and expand virtual gifting scenarios to increase users’ willingness to pay, our revenue from the sales of virtual items in its live streaming business continues to increase.

 

The following table sets forth types of our revenue for the periods indicated:

Amounts in thousands of RMB   2019     2020

Technical services     -       985  
Total revenue   ¥ 188,579     ¥ 216,275  

 

Revenue increased by 15% to RMB216.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 from RMB188.6 million for the same period of last year. Since 2019, we have increased its revenue sharing fee for its broadcasters to retain and attract more broadcasters and introduced more events and games to further increase users’ willingness to stay and play on the live streaming platforms As a result, the number of our paying users in the first quarter of 2020 increased 74% to 242,265 from 139,165 in the same quarter of last year. The number of our broadcasters in the first quarter of 2020 increased by 24% to 13,494 from 10,881 in the same quarter of last year.

The increase in revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2020 was mainly a result of a significant increase in paying users by comparing with the three months ended March 31, 2019.

 

Cost of Revenues

 

Cost of revenues primarily consists of (i) revenue sharing fees, including payments to various broadcasters and content providers, (ii) user acquisition costs, (iii) bandwidth related costs, and (iv) other costs. The table below shows the cost of revenues in absolute amounts for the periods indicated.

 

    For the three months ended March 31,  
Amounts in thousands of RMB   2019     2020  
    RMB     RMB  
             
Revenue sharing fees   ¥ 125,204     ¥ 139,248  
User acquisition costs     22,366       17,483  
Bandwidth related costs     1,874       956  
Others     3,777       6,783  
Total cost of revenue   ¥ 153,221     ¥ 164,470  

 

Revenue sharing fees and content cost: Revenue sharing fees represent its payment to broadcasters based on a percentage of revenue from sales of virtual items, including virtual gifts and other subscription based privileges. During the first quarter of 2020, revenue sharing fees and content cost increased by 11% to RMB139.2 million from RMB125.2 million in the same quarter of last year. The increase in the sharing fees and content cost for live streaming revenue was in line with the growth of its live streaming operations. Revenue sharing fees were 66% and 64% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2020, respectively.

 

User acquisition costs: We acquire users primarily through viral marketing, or word-of-mouth marketing, and online download. We provide online downloads of its apps via various third-party websites, including online advertising networks, internet portals and mobile application stores and pay such third parties a fee for each registered user account acquired through them. User acquisition costs decreased by RMB4.9 million from RMB22.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 to RMB17.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. With increasing brand awareness and increased quality content provided by Broadcasters, the Company expects user acquisition costs to decrease.

 

Bandwidth related cost: Bandwidth related cost consists of fees that we pay to telecommunication service providers for server hosting, bandwidth and content delivery-related services such as CDN (content delivery network). The Company incurred approximately RMB1.0 million in bandwidth related cost for the three months ended March 31, 2020, decreased 49% from RMB1.9 million bandwidth related cost for the same period in 2019. With the increasing competition in hosting and bandwidth market and optimized technology, we were able to cut down bandwidth related costs with its growing live streaming operations.

 

Others: Other costs include (i) fees that we pay to third-party payment processing platforms through which its users purchase its virtual currencies, technology service costs, and content producing costs, (ii) personnel fees directly related to the revenue such as operation employees’ salary and benefits, and (iii) depreciation and amortization expense for servers and other equipment, and intangibles directly related to operating the platforms. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2020, other cost represented approximately 2% and 3% of related total revenue, respectively.

 

Gross profits

 

Our gross profits increased by RMB16.4 million or 47% from RMB35.4 million in the first quarter of 2019 to RMB51.8 million in the first quarter of 2020. Gross margin as a percent of overall revenue for the first quarter of 2019 was 24%, significantly improved from 19% in the first quarter of 2019. As explained in the cost of revenues, with increasing brand awareness and increased quality content provided by Broadcasters, our user acquisition cost in the first quarter of 2020 decreased by 22% from the same period of last year and represented 8% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2020 comparing to 12% in the same quarter of last year, thereby improved our gross margin in the first quarter of 2020.

Provision for doubtful accounts     682       434  
Total operating expenses   ¥ 6,814     ¥ 11,687  

 

Sales and marketing expenses: Sales and marketing expenses mainly consist of (i) salaries and benefits for sales and marketing employees, and (ii) branding and advertisement expenses, including advertisements, holding promotional events and developing and designing marketing campaigns. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the sales and marketing expense increased by 74% to RMB1.4 million from RMB0.8 million in the same period of last year due to more promotion activities incurred in the first quarter of 2020 as more online users spent more time at home watching our live streaming content.

 

General and administrative expenses: General and administrative expenses primarily consist of (i) salaries and benefits for its general and administrative staff, (ii) consulting fees and professional fees, (iii) other expenses primarily including general office expenses, and (iv) office rental expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the general and administrative expense increased by 147% to RMB3.5 million from RMB1.4 million in the same period of last year primarily due to the increase in payroll and employee benefits with more headcounts and higher consulting and professional fees incurred related to the listing in Nasdaq capital market.

 

Research and development expenses: Research and development expenses primarily consist of (i) salaries and benefits for its research and development employees, and (ii) other expenses primarily including depreciation related to research use. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the research and development expense increased by 63% to RMB6.4 million from RMB3.9 million in the same period of last year due to increased R&D headcounts with more salary and benefits incurred.

 

Provision for doubtful accounts: We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts which reflects its best estimate of amounts that potentially will not be collected. When we determine the allowance for doubtful accounts, it takes into consideration various factors including but not limited to collection history and credit-worthiness of the debtors as well as the age of the individual receivables account. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the provision for doubtful accounts decreased by 36% to RMB0.4 million from RMB0.7 million in the same period of last year. We expect that the provision for doubtful accounts to decline as it has committed more resources to collection of account receivables.

 

Net Income

 

As a result of the foregoing, Our net income for the first quarter 2020 increased by 40% to RMB37.7 million from RMB26.9 million in the first quarter of 2019 and the net profit margin increased from 14% in the first quarter of 2019 to 17% in the first quarter of 2020.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates on an on-going basis and use them on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances as the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates because of different assumptions or conditions.

 

We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements. These policies should be read in conjunction with Note 2 of the notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Business combinations

 

The Company accounts for all business combinations under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). The purchase method of accounting requires that the consideration transferred to be allocated to net assets including separately identifiable assets and liabilities the Company acquired, based on their estimated fair value. The consideration transferred in an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the fair values at the date of exchange of the assets given, liabilities incurred, and equity instruments issued as well as the contingent considerations and all contractual contingencies as of the acquisition date. The costs directly attributable to the acquisition are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired or assumed are measured separately at their fair value as of the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any non-controlling interests. The excess of (i) the total of the cost of the acquisition, fair value of the non-controlling interests and acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest in the acquiree over (ii) the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the acquiree is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the acquiree, the difference is recognized directly in earnings. The determination and allocation of fair values to the identifiable net assets acquired and liabilities assumed is based on various assumptions and valuation methodologies requiring considerable judgment from management.. Although the Group believes that the assumptions applied in the determination are reasonable based on information available at the date of acquisition, actual results may differ from forecasted amounts and the differences could be material.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

Accounts receivable are stated at the historical carrying amount net of allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts are considered overdue after 180 days.

 

We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts which reflects its best estimate of amounts that potentially will not be collected. We take into consideration various factors to determine the allowance for doubtful accounts, including but not limited to, historical collection experience and credit-worthiness of the debtors as well as the age of the individual receivables balance. Additionally, we make specific bad debt provisions based on any specific knowledge which we have acquired that might indicate that an account is uncollectible. The facts and circumstances for each account may require us to use judgment in assessing its collectability.

 

Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the likelihood of collection is not probable.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2019. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2019 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company’s historic accounting under Topic 605. Based on the Company’s assessment, the adoption of ASC 606 did not result in any adjustment on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and there were no material differences between the Company’s adoption of ASC 606 and its historic accounting under ASC 605.

 

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised virtual items or services is transferred to the Company’s customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those virtual items or services. Revenue is recorded, net of sales related taxes and surcharges. The Company derives their revenue from live streaming service and technical service.

 

Live Streaming

 

The Company is principally engaged in operating its own live streaming platforms, which enable broadcasters and viewers to interact with each other during live streaming. The Company is responsible for providing a technological infrastructure to enable the broadcasters, online users and viewers to interact through live streaming platforms. All the platforms can be accessed for free. The Company mainly derives the revenue from sales of virtual items in the platforms. The Company has a recharge system for users to purchase the Company’s virtual currency then purchase virtual items for use. Users can recharge via various online third-party payment platforms, including WeChat Pay, AliPay and other payment platforms.

 

Virtual currency is non-refundable and often consumed soon after it is purchased.

The Company designs, creates and offers various virtual items for sales to users with pre-determined stand-alone selling price. Virtual items are categorized as consumable and time-based items. Consumable items are consumed upon purchase and use while time-based items could be used for a fixed period of time. Users can purchase and present consumable items to broadcasters to show support for their favorite broadcasters, or purchase time-based virtual items for one or multiple months for a monthly fee, which provide users with recognized status, such as priority speaking rights or special symbols over a period of time.

 

The Company shares a portion of the sales proceeds of virtual items (“revenue sharing fee”) with broadcasters and talent agencies in accordance with their revenue sharing arrangements. Broadcasters, who do not have revenue sharing arrangements with the Company, are not entitled to any revenue sharing fee. The Company also utilizes third-party payment collection channels, which charges the payment handling cost for users to purchase the virtual currency directly from it. The payment handling costs are recorded in cost of sales.

 

The Company evaluates and determines that it is the principal and views users to be its customers, because the Company controls the virtual items before they are transferred to users. Its control is evidenced by the Company’s sole ability to monetize the virtual items before they are transferred to users, and is further supported by the Company being primarily responsible to the users for the delivery of the virtual items as well as having full discretion in establishing pricing for the virtual items. Accordingly, the Company reports live streaming revenues on a gross basis with the amounts billed to users recorded as revenues and revenue sharing fee paid to broadcasters and related agencies recorded as cost of revenues.

 

Sales proceeds are initially recorded as deferred revenue and recognized as revenue based on the consumption of the virtual items. The Company has determined that each individual virtual item represents a distinct performance obligation. Accordingly, live streaming revenue is recognized immediately when the consumable virtual item is used, or in the case of time-based virtual items, revenue is recognized over the fixed period on a straight line basis. The Company does not have further obligations to the user after the virtual items are consumed. The Company’s live streaming virtual items are generally sold without right of return and the Company does not provide any other credit and incentive to its users. Unconsumed virtual currency is recorded as deferred revenue.

 

The Company also cooperates with independent third-party distributors to sell virtual currency through annual distribution agreements with these distributors. Third-party distributors purchase virtual currency from the Company with no refund provision according to the annual distribution agreements, and they are responsible for selling the virtual currency to end users. They may engage their own sales representatives, which are referred to as “sales agents” to directly sell to individual end users. The Company has no control over such “sales agents”. The Company has discretion to determine the price of the virtual currency sold to its third-party distributors, but has no discretion as to the price at which virtual currency is sold by its third-party distributors to the sales agents.

 

Technical Services

 

We generate technical services revenues from providing technical development and advisory services, which accounts for only less than 1% of revenue. As the amount was immaterial, and short-term in nature, which is usually less than six months, we recognize revenue when service was rendered and accepted by customers.

 

Practical expedients and exemptions

 

The Company’s contracts have an original duration of one year or less. Accordingly, the Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations.

 

Contract balances

 

Contract balances include accounts receivable and deferred revenue. Accounts receivable primarily represent cash due from distributors and are recorded when the right to consideration is unconditional. The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects the best estimate of probable losses inherent to the account receivable balance. Deferred revenue primarily includes unconsumed virtual currency and unamortized revenue from virtual items in the Company’s platforms, where there is still an obligation to be provided by the Company, which will be recognized as revenue when all of the revenue recognition criteria are met. Due to the generally short-term duration of the relevant contracts, the majority of the performance obligations are satisfied within one year.

 

Income Taxes

 

We account for current income taxes in accordance with the laws of the relevant tax authorities. We follow the liability method in accounting for income taxes in accordance to ASC topic 740 (“ASC 740”), Income Taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the period in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance would be recorded against deferred tax assets if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

The guidance on accounting for uncertainties in income taxes prescribes a more likely than not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Guidance was also provided on recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for income taxes in interim periods, and income tax disclosures. Significant judgment is required in evaluating our uncertain tax positions and determining the provision for income taxes. We recognize interests and penalties, if any, under accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the balance sheet and under other expenses in the statement of comprehensive loss. We did not recognize any interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2020. As of December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2020, we did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02 (“ASU 2016-02”), Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 specifies the accounting for leases. For operating leases, ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, in its balance sheet. The standard also requires a lessee to recognize a single lease cost, calculated so that the cost of the lease is allocated over the lease term, on a generally straight-line basis. In July 2018, ASU 2018-11, the FASB further amended the guidance to provide another transition method in addition to the existing transition method by allowing entities to initially apply the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognize an accumulative-effective adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. For non-public business entities, this aforementioned guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, by which to defer the effective date for all other entities by an additional year. Early adoption is permitted. As of March 31, 2020, the Company has RMB22,424 (US$3,161) of future minimum operating lease commitments that are not currently recognized on its consolidated balance sheets. Therefore, the Company would expect changes to its consolidated balance sheets for the recognition of these and any additional leases entered into in the future upon adoption.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 (“ASU 2016-13”), Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. The standard will replace “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost. The standard is effective for non-public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In October 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-17 (“ASU 2018-17”), Consolidation (Topic 810): Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities. The updated guidance requires entities to consider indirect interests held through related parties under common control on a proportional basis rather than as the equivalent of a direct interest in its entirety when determining whether a decision-making fee is a variable interest. The amendments in this update are effective for non-public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted. These amendments should be applied retrospectively with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings at the beginning of the earliest period presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, to simplify the accounting for income taxes. The new guidance eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. It also simplifies aspects of the accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. This ASU will become effective for the Company’s annual and interim periods beginning in January 1, 2021, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, Investments - Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) (“ASU 2020-01”), which is intended to clarify the interaction of the accounting for equity securities under Topic 321 and investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting in Topic 323 and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options accounted for under Topic 815. ASU 2020-01 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2021. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of adopting this ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Cash Flows and Working Capital

 

Our sources of liquidity are primarily from the cash earned from its operating activities and cash by financing activities. Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. Our cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions which are unrestricted as to withdrawal and use and have original maturities less than three months. Cash and cash equivalents also consist of funds earned from the operating revenues which were held at the third party platform fund accounts which are unrestricted as to immediate use or withdraw.

 

The COVID-19 pandemic created significant economic uncertainty and volatility in the credit and capital markets during the first quarter of 2020. Given the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, challenging market conditions resulting in significant spending cuts, we continue to remain focused on maintaining a strong balance sheet and adequate liquidity. Over the near term, we plan to adjust our overall cost structures commensurate with our expected level of activities. We believe that our cash on hand and internally generated cash flows will be sufficient to fund our operations over at least the next 12 months.

 

As of March 31, 2020, we have cash and cash equivalents of approximately RMB183.4 million deposited with financial institutions and the third-party payment platforms located in the PRC, which increased by 34% from RMB137.4 million as of December 31, 2019. Our working capital increased by 22% to approximately RMB200.7 million as of March 31, 2020 from RMB164.1 million as of December 31, 2019. We do not have any short term investments as of December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2020.

  

11

 

 

A majority of our expense transactions are denominated in RMB and a significant portion of assets and liabilities of us are denominated in RMB. RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. In the PRC certain foreign exchange transactions are required by law to be transacted only by authorized financial institutions at exchange rates set by the PBOC. Remittances in currencies other than RMB by us in China must be processed through the PBOC or other PRC foreign exchange regulatory bodies which require certain supporting documentation in order to effect the remittance.

 

The financial institutions that We use mainly include China Zheshang Bank and Agriculture Bank of China, which are Listed Banks in PRC capital markets. In China, banks are endorsed by the government. The third-party payment platforms mainly include Ali Pay and Apple Pay, both of which are well-known multinational companies. While we believe that these financial institutions are of high credit quality, it also continually monitor their credit worthiness.

 

We intend to finance its future working capital requirements and capital expenditures from cash generated from operating activities and funds raised from financing activities. We believe that its current cash and cash equivalents, together with its cash generated from operating activities and financing activities, will be sufficient to meet its present anticipated working capital requirements and capital expenditures. However, we may decide to enhance is liquidity position or increase its cash reserve for future investments or operations through additional capital and finance funding. Issuance of additional equity securities, including convertible debt securities, would dilute our earnings per share. The incurrence of debt would divert cash for working capital and capital expenditures to service debt obligations and could result in operating and financial covenants that restrict our operations and our ability to pay dividends to its shareholders.

 

As a holding company with no material operations of its own, we conducts our operations primarily through its PRC subsidiaries and its variable interest entity (VIE) and the VIE’s subsidiaries. We are permitted under PRC laws and regulations to provide funding to its PRC subsidiaries in China through capital contributions or loans, subject to the approval of government authorities and limits on the amount of capital contributions and loans.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

Our exposure to interest rate risk primarily relates to the interest income generated by excess cash, which is mostly held in interest bearing bank deposits. We have not used derivative financial instruments to manage its interest risk exposure. Interest earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. We has not been exposed to, nor does we anticipate being exposed to, material risks due to changes in market interest rates.

 

Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables included in prepaid expenses, other current assets, and amounts due from related parties. As of December 31 2019 and March 31, 2020, RMB134.8 and RMB181.5 million, respectively, were deposited with major financial institutions located in the PRC. Management believes that these financial institutions are of high credit quality and continually monitor the credit worthiness of these financial institutions. Historically, deposits in Chinese banks are secure due to the state policy on protecting depositors’ interests.

 

For the credit risk related to accounts receivable, we performs ongoing credit evaluations of customers. We establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon estimates, factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers and other information. The allowance amounts were immaterial for all periods presented.

 

Foreign Exchange Risk

 

Substantially all of our businesses are transacted in RMB, which is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. On January 1, 1994, the PRC government abolished the dual rate system and introduced a single rate of exchange as quoted daily by the People’s Bank of China. However, the unification of the exchange rates does not imply the convertibility of RMB into US$ or other foreign currencies. All foreign exchange transactions continue to take place either through the People’s Bank of China or other banks authorized to buy and sell foreign currencies at the exchange rates quoted by the People’s Bank of China. Approval of foreign currency payments by the People’s Bank of China or other institutions requires submitting a payment application form together with suppliers’ invoices, shipping documents and signed contracts.

During the period of Marcum’s engagement and the subsequent interim period preceding Marcum’s dismissal, there were no disagreements with Marcum on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Marcum, would have caused it to make a reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports covering such periods. In addition, no “reportable events,” as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, occurred within the period of Marcum’s engagement and the subsequent interim period preceding Marcum’s dismissal.

 

During the period from May 2, 2018 (inception) through December 31, 2019 and the subsequent interim period preceding the engagement of Friedman, and through the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, neither SHC nor anyone on its behalf has previously consulted with Friedman regarding either: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on SHC’s financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to SHC that Friedman concluded was an important factor considered by SHC in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement” or a “reportable event” (as described in Items 304(a)(1)(iv) and 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, respectively).

 

SHC provided Marcum with a copy of the disclosures made pursuant to this Item 4.01 prior to the filing of this Current Report on Form 8-K and requested that Marcum furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1, stating whether it agrees with such disclosures.

8.19. An alternate director has no power to appoint an alternate, whether of the appointing director or of the alternate director.

 

8.20. An alternate director has the same rights as the appointing director in relation to any directors’ meeting and any written resolution of directors circulated for written consent.

Any exercise by the alternate director of the appointing director’s powers in relation to the taking of decisions by the directors is as effective as if the powers were exercised by the appointing director. An alternate director does not act as an agent of or for the appointing director and is liable for his own acts and omissions as an alternate director.

9.2. Each director shall exercise his powers for a proper purpose and shall not act or agree to the Company acting in a manner that contravenes the Memorandum, the Articles or the Act. Each director, in exercising his powers or performing his duties, shall act honestly and in good faith in what the director believes to be the best interests of the Company.

 

9.3. If the Company is the wholly owned subsidiary of a holding company, a director of the Company may, when exercising powers or performing duties as a director, act in a manner which he believes is in the best interests of the holding company even though it may not be in the best interests of the Company.

The inadvertent failure to give notice of a meeting to a director, or the fact that a director has not received the notice, does not invalidate the meeting.

 

- 16 -

 

 

10.5. A meeting of directors is duly constituted for all purposes if at the commencement of the meeting there are present in person or by alternate not less than one-half of the total number of directors, unless there are only 2 directors in which case the quorum is 2.

- 19 -

 

 

14.5. The termination of any proceedings by any judgment, order, settlement, conviction or the entering of a nolle prosequi does not, by itself, create a presumption that the person did not act honestly and in good faith and with a view to the best interests of the Company or that the person had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

(b) provide the Company’s public shareholders with the opportunity to sell their public shares to the Company by means of a tender offer (and thereby avoid the need for a shareholder vote) for an amount equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account (net of taxes payable), in each case subject to the limitations described in the Registration Statement.

 

23.3. If the Company determines to engage in a tender offer, such tender offer will be structured so that each public shareholder may tender any or all of his, her or its public shares rather than some pro rata portion of his, her or its shares. If enough shareholders tender their shares so that the Company is unable to satisfy any applicable closing condition (as may be set forth in the definitive agreement related to our initial business combination), or the Company is unable to maintain net tangible assets of at least US$5,000,001, the Company will not consummate such initial business combination.

 

23.4. If the Company chooses and is legally permitted to do so, the Company will have the flexibility to avoid a shareholder vote and allow its shareholders to sell their shares pursuant to Rule 13e-4 and Regulation 14E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or Exchange Act, which regulate issuer tender offers. In that case, the Company will file tender offer documents with the SEC which will contain substantially the same financial and other information about the initial business combination as is required under the SEC’s proxy rules.

 

23.5. The Company will consummate an initial business combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least US$5,000,001 upon such consummation and, solely if the Company seeks shareholder approval, and a majority of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares voted are voted in favor of the business combination.

 

- 24 -

 

 

23.6. In connection with a business combination, public shareholders will have the right to convert their shares into an amount equal to (1) the number of public shares being converted by such public holder divided by the total number of public shares multiplied by (2) the amount then in the trust account (initially US$10.00 per share), which includes the deferred underwriting discounts and commissions plus a pro rata portion of any interest earned on the funds held in the trust account less any amounts necessary to pay the Company’s taxes. At any meeting called to approve an initial business combination, public shareholders may elect to convert their shares regardless of whether or not they vote to approve the business combination. 

 

23.7. In the event that the Company fails to consummate a business combination within 12 months (or 21 months, if the Company extends the time to complete a business combination as described in the offering prospectus) from the consummation of its IPO, it will trigger the Company’s automatic winding up, liquidation and subsequent dissolution pursuant to the terms of these Articles. Accordingly, no vote would be required from our shareholders to commence such a voluntary winding up, liquidation and subsequent dissolution.

 

23.8. If the Company anticipates that it may not be able to consummate its initial business combination within 12 months, the Company may, but is not obligated to, extend the period of time to consummate a business combination three times by an additional three months each time (for a total of up to 21 months to complete a business combination).

 

23.9. The amount in the trust account (including the deferred underwriting compensation) will be available for distribution provided that immediately following the date on which the proposed distribution is to be made, the Company is able to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business, and the value of the Company’s assets exceed its liabilities. If the Company is forced to liquidate, it is anticipated that the Company would distribute to its public shareholders the amount in the trust account calculated as of the date that is two days prior to the distribution date (including any accrued interest).

 

23.10. The Company may enter into a Business Combination where any of our officers, directors, initial shareholders or their affiliates acquire a minority interest in the target business alongside our acquisition, provided in each case we obtain an opinion from an unaffiliated third party indicating that the price we are paying is fair to the Company’s shareholders from a financial point of view.

 

23.11. Although the Company does not intend to enter into an initial business combination with a target business that is affiliated with its sponsor, its directors or officers, the Company is not prohibited from doing so. In the event the Company were to enter into such a transaction, the Company, or a committee of independent directors, will obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm that is a member of FINRA that such initial business combination is fair to the Company’s shareholders from a financial point of view.

 

24. UNTRACEABLE SHAREHOLDERS

 

The Company shall be entitled to sell any shares of a shareholder who is untraceable, as long as: (a) all cheques, not being less than three in total number, for any sums payable in cash to the holder of such shares have remained uncashed for a period of 12 years; (b) the Company has not during that time or before the expiry of the three-month period referred to in (c) below received any indication of the existence of the shareholder or person entitled to such shares by death, bankruptcy or operation of law; and (c) upon expiration of the 12-year period, the Company has caused an advertisement to be published in newspapers, giving notice of its intention to sell such shares, and a period of three months or such shorter period has elapsed since the date of such advertisement. The net proceeds of any such sale shall belong to the Company, and when the Company receives such net proceeds it shall become indebted to the former shareholder for an amount equal to such net proceeds.

Now therefore, upon mutual discussion and negotiation, the Parties have reached the following agreement:

 

1. Sale and Purchase of Equity Interest

 

1.1 Option Granted

 

Party B hereby irrevocably agrees that, on the condition that it is permitted by the PRC laws, Party A has the right to require Party B to fulfill and complete all approval and registration procedures required under PRC laws for Party A to purchase, or designate one or more persons (each, a “Designee”) to purchase, Party B’s equity interests in Party C, once or at multiple times at any time in part or in whole at Party A’s sole and absolute discretion and at the price described in Section 1.3 herein (such right being the “Equity Interest Purchase Option”). Party A’s Equity Interest Purchase Option shall be exclusive. Except for Party A and the Designee(s), no other person shall be entitled to the Equity Interest Purchase Option or other rights with respect to the equity interests of Party B. Party C hereby agrees to the grant by Party B of the Equity Interest Purchase Option to Party A. The term “person” as used herein shall refer to individuals, corporations, partnerships, partners, enterprises, trusts or non-corporate organizations.

 

 

 

 

1.2 Steps for Exercise of Equity Interest Purchase Option

 

Subject to the provisions of the laws and regulations of China, Party A may exercise the Equity Interest Purchase Option by issuing a written notice to Party B (the “Equity Interest Purchase Option Notice”), specifying: (a) Party A’s decision to exercise the Equity Interest Purchase Option; (b) the portion of equity interests to be purchased from Party B (the “Optioned Interests”); and (c) the date for purchasing the Optioned Interests and/or the date for transfer of the Optioned Interests.

 

1.3 Equity Interest Purchase Price

 

The total price of the purchased equity interests held by Party B to be purchased by Party A shall be equal to the actual amount of registered capital paid by Party B for such purchased equity interests (or such price may be subject to the equity interest transfer contract otherwise entered into by and between Party A (or the Designee (s)) and Party B; provided, however, that such price does not violate the laws and regulations of the PRC and is approved by Party A); If Party A exercises the Option to purchase part of the Optioned Interests held by Party B in Party C, the Equity Interest Purchase Price shall be calculated on a pro rata basis. If when Party A exercises the Equity Interest Purchase Option, the PRC laws have mandatory provisions on the transfer price of the Optioned Interests, causing the minimum price permitted by law to be higher than the aforesaid price, the transfer price shall be the minimum price permitted by the PRC laws (collectively, the “Equity Interest Purchase Price”). If when Party A exercises the Equity Interest Purchase Option, the PRC laws have mandatory provisions on the transfer price of the Optioned Interests, causing the minimum price permitted by law to be higher than the aforesaid price, then the transfer price shall be the minimum price permitted by the PRC laws (collectively, the “Equity Interest Purchase Price”). Upon receipt by Party A and/or the Designee (s) of all approvals, registrations or filings relating to the Optioned Interests and all ownership documents relating to the Optioned Interests to the satisfaction of Party A and/or the Designee (s), Party A and/or the Designee (s) shall pay to Party B for the Equity Interest Purchase Price in cash.

For the purpose of this Section and this Agreement, “security interests” shall include securities, mortgages, third party’s rights or interests, any stock options, acquisition right, right of first refusal, right to offset, ownership retention or other security arrangements, but shall be deemed to exclude any security interest created by this Agreement and Party B’s Equity Pledge Agreement. “Party B’s Equity Pledge Agreement” as used in this Section and this Agreement shall refer to the Equity Pledge Agreement (“Equity Pledge Agreement”) executed by and among Party A, Party B and Party C as of the date hereof, whereby Party B pledges all of its equity interests in Party C to Party A, in order to guarantee Party C’s performance of its obligations under the Exclusive Business Corporation Agreement executed by and between Party C and Party A.

Exhibit 10.13

 

Scienjoy Holding Corporation

Indemnification Agreement

 

This Indemnification Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of May 7, 2020 between Scienjoy Holding Corporation (f/k/a Wealthbridge Acquisition Limited), a British Virgin Islands company (the “Company”), and [NAME] (“Indemnitee”).

 

RECITALS

 

WHEREAS, Indemnitee served as the chief executive officer and a director of the Company from [DATE] to [DATE] and his willingness to serve in such capacity is predicated, in substantial part, upon the Company’s willingness to indemnify him to the fullest extent permitted by the applicable laws, and upon the other undertakings set forth in this Agreement;

 

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has determined that, in order to attract and retain qualified individuals, the Company will attempt to maintain on an ongoing basis, at its sole expense, liability insurance to protect persons who have served or currently are serving the Company and its subsidiaries from certain liabilities. Although the furnishing of such insurance has been a customary and widespread practice among United States-based corporations and other business enterprises, the Company believes that, given current market conditions and trends, such insurance may be available to it in the future only at higher premiums and with more exclusions. At the same time, directors, officers, and other persons in service to corporations or business enterprises are being increasingly subjected to expensive and time-consuming litigation relating to, among other things, matters that traditionally would have been brought only against the Company or business enterprise itself. The Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Charter”) permit indemnification of the officers, directors and certain other persons of the Company. The Charter and the laws of the State of Delaware expressly provide that the indemnification provisions set forth therein are not exclusive, and thereby contemplate that contracts may be entered into between the Company and members of the Board, officers and other persons with respect to indemnification;

 

WHEREAS, this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of the Charter and any resolutions adopted pursuant to such indemnification, and will not be deemed a substitute therefor, nor to diminish or abrogate any rights of Indemnitee;

 

WHEREAS, this Agreement is made with reference to the Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) dated October 28, 2019 by and among the Company, Scienjoy Inc., and certain other parties thereto, and the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company is a condition to the closing contemplated thereby; and

 

WHEREAS, in light of the considerations referred to in the preceding recitals, it is the Company’s intention and desire that the provisions of this Agreement be construed liberally, subject to their express terms, to maximize the protections to be provided to Indemnitee hereunder.

 

1.

 

 

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

 

1.  Indemnity of Indemnitee. The Company agrees to hold harmless and indemnify Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by law, as such may be amended from time to time in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In furtherance of this indemnification, and without limiting the generality of such indemnification:

 

(a)  Proceedings Other Than Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company. Indemnitee will be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided in this Section 1(a) if, by reason of his or her Corporate Status, the Indemnitee was, or was threatened to be made, a party to or participant in any Proceeding other than a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company. Pursuant to this Section 1(a), Indemnitee will be indemnified against all Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her, or on his or her behalf, in connection with such Proceeding or any claim, issue, or matter. This indemnification is provided if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and with respect to any criminal Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful.

 

(b)  Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company. Indemnitee will be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided in this Section 1(b) if, by reason of his or her Corporate Status, the Indemnitee was, or was threatened to be made, a party to or participant in any Proceeding brought by or in the right of the Company. Pursuant to this Section 1(b), Indemnitee will be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee, or on the Indemnitee’s behalf, in connection with such Proceeding if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company. Indemnification will not be provided against such Expenses if made in respect of any claim, issue, or matter in such Proceeding as to which Indemnitee will have been adjudged to be liable to the Company unless and to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will determine that such indemnification may be made.

 

(c)  Indemnification for Expenses of a Party Who is Wholly or Partly Successful. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of his or her Corporate Status, a party to and is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in any Proceeding, he or she will be indemnified to the maximum extent permitted by law against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her or on his or her behalf in connection therewith. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding but is successful, on the merits or otherwise, as to one or more but less than all claims, issues or matters in such Proceeding, the Company will indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her or on his or her behalf in connection with each successfully resolved claim, issue, or matter. For purposes of this Section, the termination of any claim, issue or matter in such a Proceeding by dismissal, with or without prejudice, will be deemed to be a successful result as to such claim, issue, or matter.

 

2.  Additional Indemnity. In addition to, and without regard to any limitations on, the indemnification provided for in Section 1, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold Indemnitee harmless against all Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her or on his or her behalf if, by reason of his or her Corporate Status, he or she was, or was threatened to be made, a party to or participant in any Proceeding (including a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company), including, without limitation, any and all liability arising out of the negligence or active or passive wrongdoing of Indemnitee. The only limitation that will exist on the Company’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement will be that the Company will not be obligated to make any payment to Indemnitee that is finally determined (under the procedures, and subject to the presumptions, in Sections 6 and 7) to be unlawful.

 

2.

 

 

3.  Contribution.

 

(a)  Whether or not the indemnification provided in Sections 1 and 2 is available, in respect of any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit, or proceeding), the Company will pay, in the first instance, the entire amount of any judgment or settlement of such action, suit, or proceeding without requiring Indemnitee to contribute to such payment, and the Company waives and relinquishes any right of contribution it may have against Indemnitee. The Company will not enter into any settlement of any action, suit, or proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit, or proceeding) unless such settlement provides for a full and final release of all claims asserted against Indemnitee. The Company will not settle any action or claim in a manner that would impose any penalty or admission of guilt or liability on Indemnitee without Indemnitee’s written consent.

 

(b)  Without diminishing or impairing the obligations of the Company in the preceding subparagraph, if Indemnitee elects or is required to pay all or any portion of any judgment or settlement in any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit, or proceeding), the Company will contribute to the amount of Expenses, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred and paid or payable by Indemnitee in proportion to the relative benefits received by the Company and all officers, directors, or employees of the Company, other than Indemnitee, who are jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit, or proceeding), on the one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand, from the transaction from which such action, suit or proceeding arose. To the extent necessary to conform to law, the proportion determined on the basis of relative benefit may be further adjusted by reference to the relative fault of the Company and all officers, directors, or employees of the Company other than Indemnitee who are jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), on the one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand, in connection with the events that resulted in such expenses, judgments, fines, or settlement amounts, as well as any other equitable considerations which the applicable law may require to be considered. The relative fault of the Company and all officers, directors, or employees of the Company, other than Indemnitee, who are jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), on the one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand, will be determined by reference to, among other things, the degree to which their actions were motivated by intent to gain personal profit or advantage, the degree to which their liability is primary or secondary, and the degree to which their respective conduct is active or passive.

 

(c)  The Company agrees to fully indemnify and hold Indemnitee harmless from any claims of contribution which may be brought by the Company’s officers, directors, or employees, other than Indemnitee, who may be jointly liable with Indemnitee.

 

(d)  To the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, if the indemnification provided for in this Agreement is unavailable to Indemnitee for any reason whatsoever, the Company, in lieu of indemnifying Indemnitee, will contribute to the amount incurred by Indemnitee, whether for judgments, fines, penalties, excise taxes, amounts paid or to be paid in settlement or for Expenses, in connection with any claim relating to an indemnifiable event under this Agreement, in such proportion as is deemed fair and reasonable in light of all of the circumstances of such Proceeding to reflect: (i) the relative benefits received by the Company and Indemnitee as a result of the events and transactions giving cause to such Proceeding; and (ii) the relative fault of the Company (and its directors, officers, employees, and agents) and Indemnitee in connection with such events and transactions.

 

4.  Indemnification for Expenses of a Witness. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of his or her Corporate Status, a witness, or is made (or asked) to respond to discovery requests, in any Proceeding to which Indemnitee is not a party, he or she will be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her or on his or her behalf in connection therewith.

 

5.  Advancement of Expenses. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company will advance all Expenses incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status within 30 days after the receipt by the Company of a statement from Indemnitee requesting such advance or advances, whether prior to or after final disposition of such Proceeding. Such statement will reasonably evidence the Expenses incurred by Indemnitee and will include or be preceded or accompanied by a written undertaking by or on behalf of Indemnitee to repay any Expenses advanced if it is ultimately determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified against such Expenses. Any advances and undertakings to repay pursuant to this Section 5 will be unsecured and interest free.

 

3.

 

 

6.  Procedures and Presumptions for Determination of Entitlement to Indemnification. It is the intent of this Agreement to secure for Indemnitee rights of indemnity that are as favorable as may be permitted under the applicable laws and public policy. Accordingly, the parties agree that the following procedures and presumptions will apply in the event of any question as to whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement:

 

(a)  To obtain indemnification under this Agreement, Indemnitee will submit to the Company a written request with such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification. The Secretary of the Company will, promptly on receipt of such a request for indemnification, advise the Board in writing that Indemnitee has requested indemnification. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any failure of Indemnitee to provide such request to the Company, or to provide such a request in a timely fashion, will not relieve the Company of any liability that it may have to Indemnitee unless, and to the extent that, such failure actually and materially prejudices the interests of the Company.

 

(b)  On written request by Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to the first sentence of Section 6(a), Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification will be determined by one of the following three methods, which will be at the election of the Board:

 

(i) by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum;

 

(ii) by a committee of Disinterested Directors designated by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum; or

 

(iii) if so directed by the Board, by the shareholders of the Company.

 

(c)  In making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification under this Agreement, the person or persons or entity making such determination will presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption will have the burden of proof and the burden of persuasion by clear and convincing evidence. Neither the failure of the Company (including by its Board) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of any action pursuant to this Agreement that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Company (including by its Board) that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, will be a defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct.

 

(d)  Indemnitee will be deemed to have acted in good faith if Indemnitee’s action is based on the records or books of account of the Enterprise, including financial statements, or on information supplied to Indemnitee by the officers of the Enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable care by the Enterprise. In addition, the knowledge and actions, or failure to act, of any director, officer, agent, or employee of the Enterprise will not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to indemnification under this Agreement. Whether or not the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(e) are satisfied, it will in any event be presumed that Indemnitee has at all times acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption will have the burden of proof and the burden of persuasion by clear and convincing evidence.

 

4.

 

 

(e)  If the person, persons, or entity empowered or selected under Section 6 to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification has not have made a determination within 60 days after receipt by the Company of the request, the requisite determination of entitlement to indemnification will be deemed to have been made, and Indemnitee will be entitled to such indemnification absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement not materially misleading in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law. Such 60-day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed an additional 30 days, if the person, persons, or entity making such determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification in good faith requires such additional time to obtain or evaluate documentation or information relating thereto. The provisions of this Section 6(f) will not apply if the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by the shareholders pursuant to Section 6(b) and if (A) within 15 days after receipt by the Company of the request for such determination, the Board or the Disinterested Directors, if appropriate, resolve to submit such determination to the shareholders for their consideration at an annual meeting to be held within 75 days after such receipt, and such determination is made at that annual meeting, or (B) a special meeting of shareholder is called within 15 days after such receipt for the purpose of making such determination, such meeting is held for such purpose within 60 days after having been so called and such determination is made at that special meeting.

 

(f)  Indemnitee will cooperate with the person, persons, or entity making such determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification, including providing such person, persons, or entity on reasonable advance request any documentation or information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any member of the Board, or shareholder of the Company will act reasonably and in good faith in making a determination regarding the Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification under this Agreement. Any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons, or entity making such determination will be borne by the Company (irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification), and the Company indemnifies and agrees to hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom.

 

(g)  The Company acknowledges that a settlement or other disposition short of final judgment may be successful if it permits a party to avoid expense, delay, distraction, disruption, and uncertainty. In the event that any action, claim, or proceeding to which Indemnitee is a party is resolved in any manner other than by adverse judgment against Indemnitee (including, without limitation, settlement of such action, claim or proceeding with or without payment of money or other consideration) it will be presumed that Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise in such action, suit, or proceeding. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption will have the burden of proof and the burden of persuasion by clear and convincing evidence.

 

(h)  The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue, or matter in any Proceeding, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or on a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, will not (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) of itself adversely affect the right of Indemnitee to indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

Indemnitee will commence such proceeding seeking an adjudication within one year following the date on which Indemnitee first has the right to commence such proceeding pursuant to this Section 7(a). The Company will not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication.

 

(b)  In the event that a determination has been made pursuant to Section 6(b) that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 7 will be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial on the merits, and Indemnitee will not be prejudiced by reason of the adverse determination under Section 6(b).

 

(c)  If a determination has been made pursuant to Section 6(b) that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the Company will be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 7, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s misstatement not materially misleading in connection with the application for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law.

 

(d)  In the event that Indemnitee, pursuant to this Section 7, seeks a judicial adjudication of his or her rights under, or to recover damages for breach of, this Agreement, or to recover under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company, the Company will pay on his or her behalf, in advance, any and all expenses (of the types described in the definition of Expenses) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in such judicial adjudication, regardless of whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification, advancement of expenses, or insurance recovery.

 

(e)  The Company will be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 7 that the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding, and enforceable, and will stipulate in any such court that the Company is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement. The Company will indemnify Indemnitee against any and all Expenses and, if requested by Indemnitee, will (within 10 days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefore) advance, to the extent not prohibited by law, such expenses to Indemnitee, which are incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any action brought by Indemnitee for indemnification or advance of Expenses from the Company under this Agreement or under any directors' and officers' liability insurance policies maintained by the Company, regardless of whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification, advancement of Expenses, or insurance recovery, as the case may be.

 

6.

 

 

(f)  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no determination as to entitlement to indemnification under this Agreement will be required to be made prior to the final disposition of the Proceeding.

 

8.  Non-Exclusivity; Survival of Rights; Insurance; Primacy of Indemnification; Subrogation.

 

(a)  The rights of indemnification as provided by this Agreement will not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable law, Charter, any agreement, a vote of shareholders, a resolution of Board, or otherwise. No amendment, alteration, or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision of this Agreement will limit or restrict any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect of any action taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in his or her Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration, or repeal. To the extent that a change in the BVI Laws, whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification than would be afforded currently under the Charter and this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties of this Agreement that Indemnitee will enjoy all greater benefits so afforded by such change. No right or remedy in this Agreement conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every other right and remedy will be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given under this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy under this Agreement, or otherwise, will not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other right or remedy.

 

(b)  To the extent that the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, officers, employees, or agents, or fiduciaries of the Company or of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan, or other enterprise that such person serves at the request of the Company, the Company will procure such insurance policy or policies under which the Indemnitee will be covered in accordance with its or their terms to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any director, officer, employee, agent, or fiduciary under such policy or policies. If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of a claim pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Company has director and officer liability insurance in effect, the Company will give prompt notice of the commencement of such proceeding to the insurers in accordance with the procedures in the respective policies. The Company will thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies.

 

(c)  The Company acknowledges that Indemnitee has or may have in the future certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses, or insurance provided by other entities or organizations (collectively, the “Secondary Indemnitors”). The Company agrees that (i) it is the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to Indemnitee are primary and any obligation of the Secondary Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by Indemnitee are secondary), (ii) it will be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by Indemnitee and will be liable for the full amount of all Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines, and amounts paid in settlement to the extent legally permitted and as required by the terms of this Agreement, Charter or any other agreement between the Company and Indemnitee, without regard to any rights Indemnitee may have against the Secondary Indemnitors, and (iii) it irrevocably waives, relinquishes, and releases the Secondary Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Secondary Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation, or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Company further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Secondary Indemnitors on behalf of Indemnitee with respect to any claim for which Indemnitee has sought indemnification from the Company will affect the foregoing and the Secondary Indemnitors will have a right of contribution and be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee against the Company. The Company and Indemnitee agree that the Secondary Indemnitors are express third party beneficiaries of the terms of this Section 8(c).

 

7.

 

 

(d)  Except as provided in Section 8(c), in the event of any payment under this Agreement, the Company will be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee (other than against the Secondary Indemnitors), who will execute all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including execution of such documents as are necessary to enable the Company to bring suit to enforce such rights.

 

(e)  Except as provided in Section 8(c), the Company will not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable under this Agreement if and to the extent that Indemnitee has otherwise actually received such payment under any insurance policy, contract, agreement, or otherwise.

 

(f)  Except as provided in Section 8(c), the Company's obligation to indemnify or advance Expenses under this Agreement to Indemnitee who is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee, or agent of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan, or other enterprise will be reduced by any amount Indemnitee has actually received as indemnification or advancement of expenses from such other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan, or other enterprise.

(d)  with respect to remuneration paid to Indemnitee if it is determined by final judgment or other final adjudication that such remuneration was in violation of law;

 

(e)   a final judgment or other final adjudication is made that Indemnitee’s conduct was fraudulent or dishonest (but only to the extent of such specific determination);

 

(f)  in connection with any claim for reimbursement or any recovery policy of the Company by Indemnitee of any bonus or other incentive-based or equity-based compensation or of any profits realized by Indemnitee from the sale of securities of the Company, as required in each case under the Exchange Act (including any such reimbursements that arise from an accounting restatement of the Company pursuant to Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act or Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Act, or the payment to the Company of profits arising from the purchase and sale by Indemnitee of securities or securities in violation of Section 306 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act), if Indemnitee is held liable therefor (including pursuant to any settlement); or

 

8.

Indemnitee acknowledges that paragraph (h) of Item 512 of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act currently generally requires the Company to undertake, in connection with any registration statement filed under the Securities Act, to submit the issue of the enforceability of Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement in connection with any liability under the Securities Act on public policy grounds to a court of appropriate jurisdiction and to be governed by any final adjudication of such issue.

This Agreement will be binding on and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties of this Agreement and their respective successors (including any direct or indirect successor by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company), assigns, spouses, heirs, executors, and personal and legal representatives.

2.1.1 Request for Registration. At any time and from time to time on or after the date of this Agreement, any Shareholder, may make a written demand, on no more than two occasions, for registration under the Securities Act of all or part of their Registrable Securities, as the case may be (a “Demand Registration”). Any demand for a Demand Registration shall specify the number of shares of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold and the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. The Company will notify all holders of Registrable Securities of the demand, and each holder of Registrable Securities who wishes to include all or a portion of such holder’s Registrable Securities in the Demand Registration (each such holder including shares of Registrable Securities in such registration, a “Demanding Holder”) shall so notify the Company within fifteen (15) days after the receipt by the holder of the notice from the Company. Upon any such request, the Demanding Holders shall be entitled to have their Registrable Securities included in the Demand Registration, subject to Section 2.1.4. The Company shall not be obligated to effect more than an aggregate of two (2) Demand Registrations under this Section 2.1.1 in respect of all Registrable Securities.

 

2.1.2 Effective Registration. A registration will not count as a Demand Registration until the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Demand Registration has been declared effective and the Company has complied with all of its obligations under this Agreement with respect thereto; provided, however, that if, after such Registration Statement has been declared effective, the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration is interfered with by any stop order or injunction of the Commission or any other governmental agency or court, the Registration Statement with respect to such Demand Registration will be deemed not to have been declared effective, unless and until, (i) such stop order or injunction is removed, rescinded or otherwise terminated, and (ii) a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders thereafter elect to continue the offering; provided, further, that the Company shall not be obligated to file a second Registration Statement until a Registration Statement that has been filed is counted as a Demand Registration or is terminated.

2.1.3 Underwritten Offering. If a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders so elect and such holders so advise the Company as part of their written demand for a Demand Registration, the offering of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of an underwritten offering. In such event, the right of any holder to include its Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Demanding Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter or Underwriters selected for such underwriting by a majority-in-interest of the holders initiating the Demand Registration.

 

2.1.4 Reduction of Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Demand Registration that is to be an underwritten offering advises the Company and the Demanding Holders in writing that the dollar amount or number of shares of Registrable Securities which the Demanding Holders desire to sell, taken together with all other Common Stock or other securities which the Company desires to sell and the Common Stock, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by other shareholders of the Company who desire to sell, exceeds the Maximum Number of Shares, then the Company shall include in such registration: (i) first, the Registrable Securities as to which Demand Registration has been requested by the Demanding Holders (pro rata in accordance with the number of shares that each such Person has requested be included in such registration, regardless of the number of shares held by each such Person (such proportion is referred to herein as “Pro Rata”)) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the Common Stock or other securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (iii) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the Common Stock or other securities for the account of other persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual arrangements with such persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.

 

2.1.5 Withdrawal. If a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders disapprove of the terms of any underwriting or are not entitled to include all of their Registrable Securities in any offering, such majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders may elect to withdraw from such offering by giving written notice to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters of their request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Demand Registration. If the majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders withdraws from a proposed offering relating to a Demand Registration, then such registration shall not count as a Demand Registration provided for in Section 2.1.

2.2 Piggy-Back Registration.

 

2.2.1 Piggy-Back Rights. If at any time on or after the date of this Agreement the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into, equity securities, by the Company for its own account or for shareholders of the Company for their account (or by the Company and by shareholders of the Company), other than a Registration Statement (i) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Company’s existing shareholders, (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the Company or (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan, then the Company shall (x) give written notice of such proposed filing to the holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but in no event less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date, which notice shall describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, of the offering, and (y) offer to the holders of Registrable Securities in such notice the opportunity to register the sale of such number of shares of Registrable Securities as such holders may request in writing within five (5) days following receipt of such notice (a “Piggy-Back Registration”). The Company shall cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such registration and shall use its reasonably best efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested to be included in a Piggy-Back Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All holders of Registrable Securities proposing to distribute their securities through a Piggy-Back Registration that involves an Underwriter or Underwriters shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter or Underwriters selected for such Piggy-Back Registration.

 

2.2.2 Reduction of Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Piggy-Back Registration under this Agreement or a demand registration on behalf of other holders of the Company’s securities under that certain Registration Rights Agreement dated as of February 5, 2019 (“Prior Agreement”) that is to be an underwritten offering advises the Company and the holders of Registrable Securities hereunder in writing that the dollar amount or number of shares of Common Stock which the Company desires to sell, taken together with the shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which registration has been demanded pursuant to the Prior Agreement, the Registrable Securities as to which registration shall otherwise be required under this Section 2.2, and the shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the this Agreement and the Prior Agreement, exceeds the Maximum Number of Shares in an underwritten offering, then the Company shall include in any such registration:

(b) If the registration is undertaken for the Company’s account and the Company has not complied with a demand registration made pursuant to the Prior Agreement or the date of the initial filing of the registration statement for such offering is within 12 months of the date of this Agreement: (A) first, the shares of Common Stock or other securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), to the holders of securities party to the Prior Agreement, (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the shares of Common Stock or other securities, if any, comprised of Registrable Securities, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the applicable piggy-back registration rights of security holders party to this Agreement, and the holders of securities under the Prior Agreement, Pro Rata, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the shares of Common Stock or other securities for the account of other persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights with such persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares;

 

c) If the registration is a “demand” registration undertaken at the demand of persons, (A) first, the shares of Common Stock or other securities for the account of the demanding persons under the Prior Agreement that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the shares of Common Stock or other securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), collectively the shares of Common Stock or other securities comprised of Registrable Securities, Pro Rata, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the terms hereof, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the shares of Common Stock or other securities for the account of other persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual arrangements with such persons, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.

2.2.4 Withdrawal. Any holder of Registrable Securities may elect to withdraw such holder’s request for inclusion of Registrable Securities in any Piggy-Back Registration by giving written notice to the Company of such request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. The Company (whether on its own determination or as the result of a withdrawal by persons making a demand pursuant to written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding any such withdrawal, the Company shall pay all expenses incurred by the holders of Registrable Securities in connection with such Piggy-Back Registration as provided in Section 2.2.

 

2.3 Registrations on Form S-3/F-3. The holders of Registrable Securities may at any time and from time to time, request in writing that the Company register the resale of any or all of such Registrable Securities on Form S-3/F-3 or any similar short-form registration which may be available at such time (“Form S-3/F-3”); provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect such request through an underwritten offering. Upon receipt of such written request, the Company will promptly give written notice of the proposed registration to all other holders of Registrable Securities, and, as soon as practicable thereafter, effect the registration of all or such portion of such holder’s or holders’ Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities or other securities of the Company, if any, of any other holder or holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration pursuant to this Section 2.3: (i) if Form S-3/F-3 is not available for such offering; or (ii) if the holders of the Registrable Securities, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at any aggregate price to the public of less than $500,000. Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall not be counted as Demand Registrations effected pursuant to Section 2.1.

 

3. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.

 

3.1 Filings; Information. Whenever the Company is required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2, the Company shall use its reasonably best efforts to effect the registration and sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof as expeditiously as practicable, and in connection with any such request:

3.1.2 Amendments and Supplements. The Company shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until all Registrable Securities and other securities covered by such Registration Statement have been disposed of in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement or such securities have been withdrawn.

 

3.1.3 Notification. After the filing of a Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly, and in no event more than two (2) business days after such filing, notify the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement of such filing, and shall further notify such holders promptly and confirm such advice in writing in all events within two (2) business days of the occurrence of any of the following: (i) when such Registration Statement becomes effective; (ii) when any post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement becomes effective; (iii) the issuance or threatened issuance by the Commission of any stop order (and the Company shall take all actions required to prevent the entry of such stop order or to remove it if entered); and (iv) any request by the Commission for any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or any prospectus relating thereto or for additional information or of the occurrence of an event requiring the preparation of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the securities covered by such Registration Statement, such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and promptly make available to the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement any such supplement or amendment; except that before filing with the Commission a Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, including documents incorporated by reference, the Company shall furnish to the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement and to the legal counsel for any such holders, copies of all such documents proposed to be filed sufficiently in advance of filing to provide such holders and legal counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review such documents and comment thereon, and the Company shall not file any Registration Statement or prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, including documents incorporated by reference, to which such holders or their legal counsel shall object.

 

3.1.4 State Securities Laws Compliance. The Company shall use its reasonably best efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement (in light of their intended plan of distribution) may request and (ii) take such action necessary to cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Company and do any and all other acts and things that may be necessary or advisable to enable the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this paragraph or subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction.

The representations, warranties and covenants of the Company in any underwriting agreement which are made to or for the benefit of any Underwriters, to the extent applicable, shall also be made to and for the benefit of the holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration statement. No holder of Registrable Securities included in such registration statement shall be required to make any representations or warranties in the underwriting agreement except, if applicable, with respect to such holder’s organization, good standing, authority, title to Registrable Securities, lack of conflict of such sale with such holder’s material agreements and organizational documents, and with respect to written information relating to such holder that such holder has furnished in writing expressly for inclusion in such Registration Statement or as otherwise provided herein.

The Company shall comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and the Securities Act, and make available to its shareholders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement covering a period of twelve (12) months, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder.

 

3.1.10 Listing. The Company shall use its reasonably best efforts to cause all Registrable Securities included in any registration to be listed on such exchanges or otherwise designated for trading in the same manner as similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or designated or, if no such similar securities are then listed or designated, in a manner satisfactory to the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in such registration.

3.2 Obligation to Suspend Distribution. Upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3.1.3(iv), or, in the case of a resale registration on Form S-3 pursuant to Section 2.1.2 hereof, upon any suspension by the Company, pursuant to a written insider trading compliance program adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors, of the ability of all “insiders” covered by such program to transact in the Company’s securities because of the existence of material non-public information, each holder of Registrable Securities included in any registration shall immediately discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities until such holder receives the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3.1.3(iv) or the restriction on the ability of “insiders” to transact in the Company’s securities is removed, as applicable, and, if so directed by the Company, each such holder will deliver to the Company all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such holder’s possession, of the most recent prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice.

 

3.3 Registration Expenses.

The Company shall have no obligation to pay any underwriting discounts or selling commissions attributable to the Registrable Securities being sold by the holders thereof, which underwriting discounts or selling commissions shall be borne by such holders. Additionally, in an underwritten offering, all selling shareholders and the Company shall bear the expenses of the Underwriter pro rata in proportion to the respective amount of shares each is selling in such offering.

 

10

 

 

3.4 Information. The holders of Registrable Securities shall provide such information as may reasonably be requested by the Company, or the managing Underwriter, if any, in connection with the preparation of any Registration Statement, including amendments and supplements thereto, in order to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 2 and in connection with the Company’s obligation to comply with federal and applicable state securities laws. In addition, the holders of Registrable Securities shall comply with all prospectus delivery requirements under the Securities Act and applicable SEC regulations.

 

4. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.

 

4.1 Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Shareholder and each other holder of Registrable Securities, and each of their respective officers, employees, affiliates, directors, partners, members, attorneys and agents, and each person, if any, who controls an Shareholder and each other holder of Registrable Securities (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) (each, an “Shareholder Indemnified Party”), from and against any expenses, losses, judgments, claims, damages or liabilities, whether joint or several, (i) arising out of or based upon any untrue statement (or allegedly untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which the sale of such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement, or (ii) arising out of or based upon any omission (or alleged omission) to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any federal or state or foreign securities or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any such registration; and the Company shall promptly reimburse the Shareholder Indemnified Party for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred by such Shareholder Indemnified Party in connection with investigating and defending any such expense, loss, judgment, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 4.1 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be liable in any such case to the extent that any such expense, loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or allegedly untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, or summary prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company, in writing, by such selling holder expressly for use therein. The Company also shall indemnify any Underwriter of the Registrable Securities, their officers, affiliates, directors, partners, members and agents and each person who controls such Underwriter on substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification provided above in this Section 4.1.

 

11

 

 

4.2 Indemnification by Holders of Registrable Securities. Each selling holder of Registrable Securities will, in the event that any registration is being effected under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement of any Registrable Securities held by such selling holder, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and officers and each Underwriter (if any), and each other selling holder and each other person, if any, who controls another selling holder or such Underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, judgments, damages or liabilities, whether joint or several, insofar as such losses, claims, judgments, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) (i) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which the sale of such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, or (ii) arise out of or are based upon any omission or the alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement therein not misleading, in each case only to the extent that the statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such selling holder expressly for use therein; and such selling holder shall reimburse the Company, its directors and officers, and each other selling holder or controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any of them in connection with investigation or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 4.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of such selling Shareholder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). Each selling holder’s indemnification obligations under this Section 4.2 and Section 4.4 in the aggregate shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to the amount of any net proceeds actually received by such selling holder.

 

4.3 Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any person of any notice of any loss, claim, damage or liability or any action in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2, such person (the “Indemnified Party”) shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any other person for indemnification hereunder, notify such other person (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the loss, claim, judgment, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the failure by the Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability which the Indemnifying Party may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder, except and solely to the extent the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure. If the Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification with respect to any claim or action brought against the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in such claim or action, and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with all other Indemnifying Parties, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. After notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume control of the defense of such claim or action, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that in any action in which both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party are named as defendants, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (but no more than one such separate counsel) to represent the Indemnified Party and its controlling persons who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought by the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party, with the fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by such Indemnifying Party if, based upon the written opinion of counsel of such Indemnified Party, representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to entry of judgment or effect any settlement of any claim or pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which the Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such judgment or settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim or proceeding.

4.4 Contribution.

 

4.4.1 If the indemnification provided for in the foregoing Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to any Indemnified Party in respect of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action referred to herein, then each such Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnified Parties and the Indemnifying Parties in connection with the actions or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of any Indemnified Party and any Indemnifying Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnified Party or such Indemnifying Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

 

4.4.2 The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.4 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding Section 4.4.1.

 

4.4.3 The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4.4, no holder of Registrable Securities shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the dollar amount of the net proceeds (after payment of any underwriting fees, discounts, commissions or taxes) actually received by such holder from the sale of Registrable Securities which gave rise to such contribution obligation. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

4.4.4 The obligations of the Company and the holders of Registrable Securities under this Section 4 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement under this Agreement, regardless of the expiration of any statutes of limitation or extensions of such statutes.

(the “Company”).

 

WHEREAS, the Purchaser, the Shareholders, and the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement, dated October 28, 2019 (the “Share Exchange Agreement”), providing for, among other things, the Purchaser acquires 100% of the shares of Company Common Stock from the Sellers in exchange for the Closing Payment Shares in accordance with the terms set forth in the Share Exchange Agreement;

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 11.4 of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Purchaser is required to deposit Purchaser Ordinary Shares, representing 10% of the aggregate amount of Closing Payment Shares (the “Escrow Shares”), which Escrow Shares would otherwise be issuable to the Shareholders, with the Escrow Agent on the date hereof in connection with the indemnification obligations of the Shareholders as contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement; and

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company and certain persons and entities entered into a Voting Agreement, dated May 7, 2020 (the “Voting Agreement”).

 

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

 

1.  Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Share Exchange Agreement.

 

2.  Appointment and Acceptance of Escrow Agent. The Purchaser and the Shareholders hereby appoint the Escrow Agent to act, and the Escrow Agent hereby agrees to act, as escrow agent hereunder.

 

3.  Escrow Deposit. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the Purchaser shall deposit the Escrow Shares with the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Shares will be deemed to be beneficially owned by the persons listed on Exhibit A attached hereto and shall be voted in accordance with the instructions provided by all of the Stockholders if the Stockholders provide conflicting instructions, the Escrow Agent will not vote the Escrow Shares.

 

4.  Disbursement of Deposit.

 

a.  In the event that any Purchaser Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under the terms of Article XI of the Share Exchange Agreement, such Purchaser Indemnitee (an “Indemnified Party”) shall give the Escrow Agent and the Shareholders prompt notice of such claim (a “Claim”) against the Escrow Shares in accordance with Section 15 of this Agreement. Such notice shall describe, in reasonable detail, the Loss that has been or may be suffered by the Indemnified Party. Unless the Escrow Agent receives a timely Objection Notice (as defined below) from all of the Shareholders pursuant to Section 4, the Escrow Agent shall disburse the amount of Escrow Shares specified in the Claim notice as directed therein.

 

 

 

 

b.  In the event that the Escrow Agent receives an instruction letter signed by the Purchaser and all of the Shareholders, the Escrow Agent shall promptly distribute all or any portion of the Escrow Shares as directed by such instruction letter.

 

c.  In the event that any portion of the Escrow Shares (not including any amounts subject to an Objection Notice pursuant to Section 5 of this Agreement, which amounts will remain in escrow pursuant to this Agreement until disbursed in accordance with Section 5) remains in escrow with the Escrow Agent on the date that is twelve (12) months after the Closing (the “Termination Date”), the Escrow Agent shall, within five (5) Business Days following the receipt of an instruction letter from the Shareholders at any time after the Termination Date (the “Release Date”), release the remaining Escrow Shares to the Shareholders in accordance with the applicable percentage of Escrow Shares for each Shareholder indicated on Exhibit A.

 

5.  Dispute of Claim. The Shareholders shall have the right to dispute any Claim against the Escrow Shares within the thirty (30) day period following the Shareholders’ receipt of a copy of a Claim notice by delivering to the Escrow Agent and the Purchaser Indemnitee written notice (an “Objection Notice”) that the Shareholders disputes the matter(s) set forth in such Claim notice either with respect to the validity or the amount of the Claim (or both). Such notice shall include the basis, with reasonable specificity, of the objection. If an Objection Notice is not received within such thirty (30) day period, the Shareholders will be deemed to have waived their rights to object to the disbursement of all or any portion of the Escrow Shares pursuant to such Claim. Upon timely receipt of an Objection Notice, Escrow Agent shall take no action with respect to the Claim, except upon receipt of joint written instructions from all of the Shareholders and such Purchaser Indemnitee or by a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction (“Final Order”). Escrow Agent shall promptly follow such instructions or Final Order upon receipt thereof. Escrow Agent shall be entitled to receive an opinion of counsel (which will be paid for by the Purchaser) that such Final Order is final and binding. If the amount necessary to satisfy any disputed Claim, as ultimately determined via joint written instructions or Final Order, is in excess of the Escrow Shares, then Escrow Agent shall pay over the Escrow Shares pursuant to the joint written instructions or Final Order, but shall in no way be responsible for any such excess.

 

6.  Liability of Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent shall be liable only for its bad faith or willful misconduct and not for any act done or omitted by it hereunder in good faith. The parties hereto agree that Escrow Agent will not be called upon to construe any contract or instrument. Escrow Agent is authorized to comply with and obey laws, orders, judgments, decrees, and regulations of any governmental authority, court, tribunal, or arbitrator; provided, however, that Escrow Agent shall, to the extent practicable, give each of the other parties hereto reasonable notice of its intention to comply with or obey any such law, order, judgment, decree, or regulation and the opportunity to object to such intention to comply or obey (for which Escrow Agent shall be entitled to indemnification as provided in this Agreement); provided, further, that Escrow Agent shall not be required to give any such notice if, in its reasonable judgment, a delay in complying or obeying any such law, order, judgment, decree, or regulation would prejudice any rights of Escrow Agent or subject it to any liability. If Escrow Agent complies with or obeys any such law, order, judgment, decree, or regulation, Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any of the parties hereto or to any other person even if such law, order, judgment, decree, or regulation is subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside, vacated, found to have been entered without jurisdiction, or found to be in violation of or beyond the scope of a constitution or a law.

7.  Actions Protected.

8.  Legal Counsel. Escrow Agent may consult with and obtain advice from legal counsel of its own choice in the event of any question as to the provisions hereof or its duties hereunder and shall have full and complete authorization and protection for any action taken or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the opinion of such counsel.

9.  No Other Duties. Escrow Agent shall have no duties arising from this Agreement except those expressly set forth herein, and it shall not be bound by any notice of claim or demand with respect thereto, or any waiver, modification, amendment, termination, cancellation revision or rescission of this Agreement, unless received by it in writing in conformity with the provisions hereof, and, if Escrow Agent's duties hereunder are affected, unless it shall have given its prior written consent thereto. Escrow Agent shall not be bound by any assignment by the Purchaser or by the Shareholders of any rights hereunder unless Escrow Agent shall have received written notice thereof from the assignor.

 

10.  Compensation of Escrow Agent; Indemnification. Except as specifically set forth herein, Escrow Agent shall receive no compensation for its services under this Agreement.

INTRODUCTION

 

Purpose

 

This Amended and Restated Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (this “Code”) contains general guidelines for conducting the business of Scienjoy Holding Corporation, a British Virgin Islands company (the “Company”), consistent with the highest standards of business ethics. To the extent this Code requires a higher standard than required by commercial practice or applicable laws, rules or regulations, we adhere to these higher standards.

 

This Code applies to all of the directors, officers, and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries (which, unless the context otherwise requires, are collectively referred to as the “Company” in this Code). We refer to all persons covered by this Code as “Company employees” or simply “employees.” We also refer to our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer as our “principal officers.”

 

Seeking Help and Information

 

This Code is not intended to be a comprehensive rulebook and cannot address every situation that you may face. If you feel uncomfortable about a situation or have any doubts about whether it is consistent with the Company’s ethical standards, seek help. We encourage you to contact your supervisor for help first. If your supervisor cannot answer your question or if you do not feel comfortable contacting your supervisor, contact the Compliance Officer of the Company, who shall be a person appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company. The Chief Financial Officer of the Company has been appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company as the Compliance Officer for the Company. He/She can be reached at compliance@scienjoy.com. The Company will notify you if the Board of Directors appoints a different Compliance Officer. You may remain anonymous and will not be required to reveal your identity in your communication to the Company.

 

Reporting Violations of the Code

 

All employees have a duty to report any known or suspected violation of this Code, including any violation of the laws, rules, regulations or policies that apply to the Company. If you know of or suspect a violation of this Code, immediately report the conduct to your supervisor. Your supervisor will contact the Compliance Officer, who will work with you and your supervisor to investigate the matter. If you do not feel comfortable reporting the matter to your supervisor or you do not get a satisfactory response, you may contact the Compliance Officer directly. Employees making a report need not leave their name or other personal information and reasonable efforts will be used to conduct the investigation that follows from the report in a manner that protects the confidentiality and anonymity of the employee submitting the report. All reports of known or suspected violations of the law or this Code will be handled sensitively and with discretion. Your supervisor, the Compliance Officer and the Company will protect your confidentiality to the extent possible, consistent with law and the Company’s need to investigate your report.

 

It is the Company policy that any employee who violates this Code will be subject to appropriate discipline, which may include termination of employment. This determination will be based upon the facts and circumstances of each particular situation. An employee accused of violating this Code will be given an opportunity to present his or her version of the events at issue prior to any determination of appropriate discipline. Employees who violate the law or this Code may expose themselves to substantial civil damages, criminal fines and prison terms. The Company may also face substantial fines and penalties and many incur damage to its reputation and standing in the community. Your conduct as a representative of the Company, if it does not comply with the law or with this Code, can result in serious consequences for both you and the Company.

Policy Against Retaliation

 

The Company prohibits retaliation against an employee who, in good faith, seeks help or reports known or suspected violations. Any reprisal or retaliation against an employee because the employee, in good faith, sought help or filed a report will be subject to disciplinary action, including potential termination of employment.

 

Waivers of the Code

 

Waivers of this Code for employees may be made only by the Compliance Officer of the Company. Any waiver of this Code for our directors, executive officers or other principal financial officers may be made only by our Board of Directors or the appropriate committee of our Board of Directors. Any waiver of this Code must be promptly disclosed to shareholders, along with the reasons for the waiver, and will be disclosed to the public as required by law or the rules of the Nasdaq.

 

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

 

Identifying Potential Conflicts of Interest

 

A conflict of interest can occur when an employee’s private interest interferes, or appears to interfere, with the interests of the Company as a whole. You should avoid any private interest that influences your ability to act in the interests of the Company or that makes it difficult to perform your work objectively and effectively.

 

Identifying potential conflicts of interest may not always be clear-cut. The following situations are examples of conflicts of interest:

 

Outside Employment. No employee should be employed by, serve as a director of, or provide any services not in his or her capacity as a Company employee to a company that is a material customer, supplier, or competitor of the Company.

 

Improper Personal Benefits. No employee should obtain any material (as to him or her) personal benefits or favors because of his or her position with the Company. Please see “Gifts and Entertainment” below for additional guidelines in this area.

 

Financial Interests. No employee should have a significant financial interest (ownership or otherwise) in any company that is a material customer, supplier or competitor of the Company. A “significant financial interest” means (i) ownership of greater than 1% of the equity of a material customer, supplier or competitor or (ii) an investment in a material customer, supplier or competitor that represents more than 5% of the total assets of the employee.

 

Loans or Other Financial Transactions. No employee should obtain loans or guarantees of personal obligations from, or enter into any other personal financial transaction with, any company that is a material customer, supplier or competitor of the Company. This guideline does not prohibit arms-length transactions with banks, brokerage firms or other financial institutions.

 

Service on Boards and Committees. No employee should serve on a board of directors or trustees or on a committee of any entity (whether profit or not-for-profit) whose interests reasonably would be expected to conflict with those of the Company.

 

Actions of Family Members. The actions of family members outside the workplace may also give rise to the conflicts of interest described above because they may influence an employee’s objectivity in making decisions on behalf of the Company. For purposes of this Code, “family members” include your spouse or life-partner, brothers, sisters and parents, in-laws and children whether such relationships are by blood or adoption. 

 

Page 3 of 12

 

 

For purposes of this Code, a company is a “material” customer if that company has made payments to the Company in the past year in excess of US$100,000 or 5% of the customer’s gross revenues, whichever is greater. A company is a “material” supplier if that company has received payments from the Company in the past year in excess of US$100,000 or 10% 5% of the supplier’s gross revenues, whichever is greater. A company is a “material” competitor if that company competes in the Company’s line of business and has annual gross revenues from such line of business in excess of US$500,000. If you are uncertain whether a particular company is a material customer, supplier or competitor, please contact the Compliance Officer for assistance.

 

Disclosure of Conflicts of Interest

 

The Company requires that employees disclose any situations that reasonably would be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest. If you suspect that you have a conflict of interest, or something that others could reasonably perceive as a conflict of interest, you must report it to your supervisor or the Compliance Officer. Your supervisor and the Compliance Officer will work with you to determine whether you have a conflict of interest and, if so, how best to address it. Although conflicts of interest are not automatically prohibited, they are not desirable and may only be waived as described in “Waivers of the Code” above.

 

CORPORATE OPPORTUNITIES

 

As an employee of the Company, you have an obligation to advance the Company’s interests when the opportunity to do so arises. If you discover or are presented with a business opportunity through the use of corporate property, information, or because of your position with the Company, you should first present the business opportunity to the Company before pursuing the opportunity in your individual capacity. No employee may use corporate property, information, or his or her position with the Company for personal gain or should compete with the Company.

 

You should disclose to your supervisor the terms and conditions of each business opportunity covered by this Code that you wish to pursue. Your supervisor will contact the Compliance Officer and the appropriate management personnel to determine whether the Company wishes to pursue the business opportunity. If the Company waives its right to pursue the business opportunity, you may pursue the business opportunity on the same terms and conditions as originally proposed and consistent with the other ethical guidelines set forth in this Code.

 

Confidential Information and Company Property

 

Employees have access to a variety of confidential information while employed at the Company. Confidential information includes all non-public information that might be of use to competitors, or, if disclosed, harmful to the Company or its customers. Every employee has a duty to respect and safeguard the confidentiality of the Company’s information and the information of our suppliers and customers, except when disclosure is authorized or legally mandated. In addition, you must refrain from using any confidential information from any previous employment if, in doing so, you could reasonably be expected to breach your duty of confidentiality to your former employers. An employee’s obligation to protect confidential information continues after he or she leaves the Company. Unauthorized disclosure of confidential information could cause competitive harm to the Company or its customers and could result in legal liability to you and the Company.

 

Employees also have a duty to protect the Company’s intellectual property and other business assets. The intellectual property, business systems and the security of the Company property are critical to the Company.

 

Any questions or concerns regarding whether disclosure of Company information is legally mandated should be promptly referred to the Compliance Officer.

Safeguarding Confidential Information and Company Property

 

Care must be taken to safeguard and protect confidential information and Company property. Accordingly, the following measures should be adhered to:

 

The Company’s employees should conduct their business and social activities so as not to risk inadvertent disclosure of confidential information. For example, when not in use, confidential information should be secretly stored. Also, review of confidential documents or discussion of confidential subjects in public places (e.g., airplanes, trains, taxis, buses, elevators, etc.) should be conducted so as to prevent overhearing or other access by unauthorized persons.

 

Within the Company’s offices, confidential matters should not be discussed within hearing range of visitors or others not working on such matters.

 

Confidential matters should not be discussed with other employees not working on such matters or with friends or relatives including those living in the same household as a Company employee.

 

The Company’s employees are only to access, use, and disclose confidential information that is necessary for them to have in the course of performing their duties. They are not to disclose confidential information to other employees or contractors at the Company unless it is necessary for those employees or contractors to have such confidential information in the course of their duties.

 

The Company’s files, personal computers, networks, software, internet access, internet browser programs, emails, voice mails, and other business equipment (e.g. desks and cabinets) and resources are provided for business use and they are the exclusive property of the Company. Misuse of such Company property is not tolerated.

 

COMPETITION AND FAIR DEALING

 

All employees are obligated to deal fairly with fellow employees and with the Company’s customers, suppliers and competitors. Employees should not take unfair advantage of anyone through manipulation, concealment, abuse of privileged information, misrepresentation of material facts, or any other unfair-dealing practice.

 

Relationships with Competitors

 

The Company is committed to free and open competition in the marketplace. Employees should avoid actions that would be contrary to laws governing competitive practices in the marketplace, including antitrust laws. Such actions include misappropriation and/or misuse of a competitor’s confidential information or making false statements about the competitor’s business and business practices.

 

PROTECTION AND USE OF COMPANY ASSETS

 

Employees should protect the Company’s assets and ensure their efficient use for legitimate business purposes only. Theft, carelessness and waste have a direct impact on the Company’s profitability. The use of Company funds or assets, whether or not for personal gain, for any unlawful or improper purpose is prohibited.

 

To ensure the protection and proper use of the Company’s assets, each employee should:

 

exercise reasonable care to prevent theft, damage or misuse of Company property;

 

report the actual or suspected theft, damage or misuse of Company property to a supervisor;

 

use the Company’s telephone system, other electronic communication services, written materials and other property primarily for business-related purposes;

 

safeguard all electronic programs, data, communications and written materials from inadvertent access by others; and

 

use Company property only for legitimate business purposes, as authorized in connection with your job responsibilities.

 

Employees should be aware that Company property includes all data and communications transmitted or received to or by, or contained in, the Company’s electronic or telephonic systems. Company property also includes all written communications. Employees and other users of Company property should have no expectation of privacy with respect to these communications and data. To the extent permitted by law, the Company has the ability, and reserves the right, to monitor all electronic and telephonic communication. These communications may also be subject to disclosure to law enforcement or government officials.

 

GIFTS AND ENTERTAINMENT

 

The giving and receiving of gifts is a common business practice. Appropriate business gifts and entertainment are welcome courtesies designed to build relationships and understanding among business partners. However, gifts and entertainment should not compromise, or appear to compromise, your ability to make objective and fair business decisions.

 

It is your responsibility to use good judgment in this area. As a general rule, you may give or receive gifts or entertainment to or from customers or suppliers only if the gift or entertainment would not be viewed as an inducement to or reward for any particular business decision. All gifts and entertainment expenses should be properly accounted for on expense reports. The following specific examples may be helpful:

 

Meals and Entertainment. You may occasionally accept or give meals, refreshments or other entertainment if:

 

The items are of reasonable value;

 

The purpose of the meeting or attendance at the event is business related; and

 

The expenses would be paid by the Company as a reasonable business expense if not paid for by another party.

 

Entertainment of reasonable value may include food and tickets for sporting and cultural events if they are generally offered to other customers, suppliers or vendors.

 

Advertising and Promotional Materials. You may occasionally accept or give advertising or promotional materials of nominal value.

 

Gifts. You may accept or give personal gifts of reasonable value that are related to recognized special occasions such as a graduation, promotion, new job, wedding, retirement or a holiday. A gift is also acceptable if it is based on a family or personal relationship and unrelated to the business involved between the individuals.

 

Gifts Rewarding Service or Accomplishment. You may accept a gift from a civic, charitable or religious organization specifically related to your service or accomplishment. 

 

Page 5 of 12

 

 

You must be particularly careful that gifts and entertainment are not construed as bribes, kickbacks, or other improper payments. See “The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act” below for a more detailed discussion of our policies regarding giving or receiving gifts related to business transactions.

 

You should make every effort to refuse or return a gift that is beyond these permissible guidelines. If it would be inappropriate to refuse a gift or you are unable to return a gift, you should promptly report the gift to your supervisor. Your supervisor will bring the gift to the attention of the Compliance Officer, who may require you to donate the gift to an appropriate community organization. If you have any questions about whether it is permissible to accept a gift or something else of value, contact your supervisor or the Compliance Officer for additional guidance.

 

COMPANY RECORDS

 

Accurate and reliable records are crucial to our business. Our records are the basis of our earnings statements, financial reports and other disclosures to the public and guide our business decision-making and strategic planning. Company records include booking information, payroll, timecards, travel and expense reports, e-mails, accounting and financial data, measurement and performance records, electronic data files and all other records maintained in the ordinary course of our business.

 

All Company records must be complete, accurate and reliable in all material respects. Undisclosed or unrecorded funds, payments or receipts are inconsistent with our business practices and are prohibited. You are responsible for understanding and complying with our record keeping policy. Ask your supervisor if you have any questions.

 

ACCURACY OF FINANCIAL REPORTS

 

As a public company we are subject to various securities laws, regulations and reporting obligations. These laws, regulations and obligations and our policies require the disclosure of accurate and complete information regarding the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Inaccurate, incomplete or untimely reporting will not be tolerated and can severely damage the Company and result in legal liability.

 

It is essential that the Company’s financial records, including all filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) be accurate and timely. Accordingly, in addition to adhering to the conflict of interest policy and other policies and guidelines in this Code, the principal financial officers and other senior financial officers must take special care to exhibit integrity at all times and to instill this value within their organizations. In particular, these senior officers must ensure their conduct is honest and ethical that they abide by all public disclosure requirements by providing full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosures, and that they comply with all other applicable laws and regulations. These financial officers must also understand and strictly comply with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. and all standards, laws and regulations for accounting and financial reporting of transactions, estimates and forecasts.

 

In addition, U.S. federal securities law requires the Company to maintain proper internal books and records and to devise and maintain an adequate system of internal accounting controls. The SEC has supplemented the statutory requirements by adopting rules that prohibit (1) any person from falsifying records or accounts subject to the above requirements and (2) officers or directors from making any materially false, misleading, or incomplete statement to an accountant in connection with an audit or any filing with the SEC. These provisions reflect the SEC’s intent to discourage officers, directors, and other persons with access to the Company’s books and records from taking action that might result in the communication of materially misleading financial information to the investing public.

COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND REGULATIONS

 

Each employee has an obligation to comply with all laws, rules and regulations applicable to the Company’s operations. These include, without limitation, laws covering bribery and kickbacks, copyrights, trademarks and trade secrets, information privacy, insider trading, illegal political contributions, antitrust prohibitions, foreign corrupt practices, offering or receiving gratuities, environmental hazards, employment discrimination or harassment, occupational health and safety, false or misleading financial information or misuse of corporate assets. You are expected to understand and comply with all laws, rules and regulations that apply to your job position. If any doubt exists about whether a course of action is lawful, you should seek advice from your supervisor or the Compliance Officer.

 

COMPLIANCE WITH INSIDER TRADING LAWS

 

The Company has an insider trading policy, which may be obtained from the Compliance Officer. The following is a summary of some of the general principles relevant to insider trading, and should be read in conjunction with the aforementioned specific policy.

 

Company employees are prohibited from trading in shares or other securities of the Company while in possession of material, nonpublic information about the Company. In addition, Company employees are prohibited from recommending, “tipping” or suggesting that anyone else buy or sell shares or other securities of the Company on the basis of material, nonpublic information. Company employees who obtain material nonpublic information about another company in the course of their employment are prohibited from trading in shares or securities of the other company while in possession of such information or “tipping” others to trade on the basis of such information. Violation of insider trading laws can result in severe fines and criminal penalties, as well as disciplinary action by the Company, up to and including termination of employment.

 

Information is “non-public” if it has not been made generally available to the public by means of a press release or other means of widespread distribution. Information is “material” if a reasonable investor would consider it important in a decision to buy, hold or sell stock or other securities. As a rule of thumb, any information that would affect the value of stock or other securities should be considered material. Examples of information that is generally considered “material” include:

 

Financial results or forecasts, or any information that indicates the Company’s financial results may exceed or fall short of forecasts or expectations;

 

Important new products or services;

 

Pending or contemplated acquisitions or dispositions, including mergers, tender offers or joint venture proposals;

 

Possible management changes or changes of control;

 

Pending or contemplated public or private sales of debt or equity securities;

 

Page 7 of 12

 

 

Acquisition or loss of a significant customer or contract;

 

Significant write-offs;

 

Initiation or settlement of significant litigation; and

 

Changes in the Company’s auditors or a notification from its auditors that the Company may no longer rely on the auditor’s report.

 

The laws against insider trading are specific and complex. Any questions about information you may possess or about any dealings you have had in the Company’s securities should be promptly brought to the attention of the Compliance Officer.

 

PUBLIC COMMUNICATIONS AND PREVENTION OF SELECTIVE DISCLOSURE

 

Public Communications Generally

 

The Company places a high value on its credibility and reputation in the community. What is written or said about the Company in the news media and investment community directly impacts our reputation, positively or negatively. Our policy is to provide timely, accurate and complete information in response to public requests (media, analysts, etc.), consistent with our obligations to maintain the confidentiality of competitive and proprietary information and to prevent selective disclosure of market-sensitive financial data. To ensure compliance with this policy, all news media or other public requests for information regarding the Company should be directed to the Company’s Investor Relations Department. The Investor Relations Department will work with you and the appropriate personnel to evaluate and coordinate a response to the request.

 

Prevention of Selective Disclosure

 

Preventing selective disclosure is necessary to comply with United States securities laws and to preserve the reputation and integrity of the Company as well as that of all persons affiliated with it. “Selective disclosure” occurs when any person provides potentially market-moving information to selected persons before the news is available to the investing public generally. Selective disclosure is a crime under United States law and the penalties for violating the law are severe.

 

The following guidelines have been established to avoid improper selective disclosure. Every employee is required to follow these procedures:

 

All contact by the Company with investment analysts, the press and/or members of the media shall be made through the chief executive officer, chief financial officer or persons designated by them (collectively, the “Media Contacts”).

 

Other than the Media Contacts, no officer, director or employee shall provide any information regarding the Company or its business to any investment analyst or member of the press or media.

 

All inquiries from third parties, such as industry analysts or members of the media, about the Company or its business should be directed to a Media Contact. All presentations to the investment community regarding the Company will be made by us under the direction of a Media Contact.

 

Other than the Media Contacts, any employee who is asked a question regarding the Company or its business by a member of the press or media shall respond with “No comment” and forward the inquiry to a Media Contact.

 

Page 8 of 12

 

 

These procedures do not apply to the routine process of making previously released information regarding the Company available upon inquiries made by investors, investment analysts and members of the media.

 

Please contact the Compliance Officer if you have any questions about the scope or application of the Company’s policies regarding selective disclosure.

 

THE FOREIGN CORRUPT PRACTICES ACT

 

Foreign Corrupt Practices Act

 

The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA”) prohibits the Company and its employees and agents from offering or giving money or any other item of value to win or retain business or to influence any act or decision of any governmental official, political party, candidate for political office or official of a public international organization. Stated more concisely, the FCPA prohibits the payment of bribes, kickbacks or other inducements to foreign officials. This prohibition also extends to payments to a sales representative or agent if there is reason to believe that the payment will be used indirectly for a prohibited payment to foreign officials. Violation of the FCPA is a crime that can result in severe fines and criminal penalties, as well as disciplinary action by the Company, up to and including termination of employment.

 

Certain small facilitation payments to foreign officials may be permissible under the FCPA if customary in the country or locality and intended to secure routine governmental action. Governmental action is “routine” if it is ordinarily and commonly performed by a foreign official and does not involve the exercise of discretion. For instance, “routine” functions would include setting up a telephone line or expediting a shipment through customs. To ensure legal compliance, all facilitation payments must receive prior written approval from the Compliance Officer and must be clearly and accurately reported as a business expense.

 

ENVIRONMENT, HEALTH AND SAFETY

 

The Company is committed to providing a safe and healthy working environment for its employees and to avoiding adverse impact and injury to the environment and the communities in which we do business. Company employees must comply with all applicable environmental, health and safety laws, regulations and Company standards. It is your responsibility to understand and comply with the laws, regulations and policies that are relevant to your job. Failure to comply with environmental, health and safety laws and regulations can result in civil and criminal liability against you and the Company, as well as disciplinary action by the Company, up to and including termination of employment. You should contact the Compliance Officer if you have any questions about the laws, regulations and policies that apply to you.

 

Page 9 of 12

 

 

Environment

 

All Company employees should strive to conserve resources and reduce waste and emissions through recycling and other energy conservation measures. You have a responsibility to promptly report any known or suspected violations of environmental laws or any events that may result in a discharge or emission of hazardous materials. Employees whose jobs involve manufacturing have a special responsibility to safeguard the environment. Such employees should be particularly alert to the storage, disposal and transportation of waste, and handling of toxic materials and emissions into the land, water or air.

 

Health and Safety

 

The Company is committed not only to complying with all relevant health and safety laws, but also to conducting business in a manner that protects the safety of its employees. All employees are required to comply with all applicable health and safety laws, regulations and policies relevant to their jobs. If you have a concern about unsafe conditions or tasks that present a risk of injury to you, please report these concerns immediately to your supervisor or the Human Resources Department.

 

EMPLOYMENT PRACTICES

 

The Company pursues fair employment practices in every aspect of its business. The following is intended to be a summary of our employment policies and procedures. Copies of our detailed policies are available from the Human Resources Department. Company employees must comply with all applicable labor and employment laws, including anti-discrimination laws and laws related to freedom of association, privacy and collective bargaining. It is your responsibility to understand and comply with the laws, regulations and policies that are relevant to your job. Failure to comply with labor and employment laws can result in civil and criminal liability against you and the Company, as well as disciplinary action by the Company, up to and including termination of employment. You should contact the Compliance Officer or the Human Resources Department if you have any questions about the laws, regulations and policies that apply to you.

 

Harassment and Discrimination

 

The Company is committed to providing equal opportunity and fair treatment to all individuals on the basis of merit, without discrimination because of race, color, religion, national origin, gender (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, age, disability, veteran status or other characteristic protected by law. The Company prohibits harassment in any form, whether physical or verbal and whether committed by supervisors, non-supervisory personnel or non-employees. Harassment may include, but is not limited to, offensive sexual flirtations, unwanted sexual advances or propositions, verbal abuse, sexually or racially degrading words, or the display in the workplace of sexually suggestive objects or pictures.

 

If you have any complaints about discrimination or harassment, report such conduct to your supervisor or the Human Resources Department. All complaints will be treated with sensitivity and discretion. Your supervisor, the Human Resources Department and the Company will protect your confidentiality to the extent possible, consistent with law and the Company’s need to investigate your concern. Where our investigation uncovers harassment or discrimination, we will take prompt corrective action, which may include disciplinary action by the Company, up to and including, termination of employment. The Company strictly prohibits retaliation against an employee who, in good faith, files a compliant.

 

Any member of management who has reason to believe that an employee has been the victim of harassment or discrimination or who receives a report of alleged harassment or discrimination is required to report it to the Human Resources Department immediately.

Exhibit 14.2

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SCIENJOY HOLDING CORPORATION

 

 

 

Policy on Insider Trading

 

 

 

 

Adopted: 12th May, 2020

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This Insider Trading Policy describes the standards of Scienjoy Holding Corporation and its subsidiaries (the "Company") on trading, and causing the trading of, the Company's securities or securities of certain other publicly traded companies while in possession of confidential information. This Policy is divided into two parts: the first part prohibits trading in certain circumstances and applies to all directors, officers and employees and their respective immediate family members of the Company and the second part imposes special additional trading restrictions and applies to all (i) directors of the Company, (ii) executive officers of the Company (together with the directors, "Company Insiders") and (iii) the employees (collectively, "Covered Persons”)

 

One of the principal purposes of the US federal securities laws is to prohibit so-called "insider trading." Simply stated, insider trading occurs when a person uses material nonpublic information obtained through involvement with the Company to make decisions to purchase, sell, give away or otherwise trade the Company's securities or to provide that information to others outside the Company. The prohibitions against insider trading apply to trades, tips and recommendations by virtually any person, including all persons associated with the Company, if the information involved is "material" and "nonpublic." These terms are defined in this Policy under Part I, Section 3 below. The prohibitions would apply to any director, officer or employee who buys or sells Company stock on the basis of material nonpublic information that he or she obtained about the Company, its customers, suppliers, or other companies with which the Company has contractual relationships or may be negotiating transactions.

 

PART I

 

1. Applicability

 

This Policy applies to all trading or other transactions in the Company's securities, including common stock, options and any other securities that the Company may issue, such as preferred stock, notes, bonds and convertible securities, as well as to derivative securities relating to any of the Company's securities, whether or not issued by the Company.

 

This Policy applies to all employees of the Company, all officers of the Company and all members of the Company's board of directors and their respective family members

 

2. General Policy: No Trading or Causing Trading While in Possession of Material Nonpublic Information

 

(a) No director, officer or employee or any of their immediate family members may purchase or sell, or offer to purchase or sell, any Company security, whether or not issued by the Company, while in possession of material nonpublic information about the Company. (The terms "material" and "nonpublic" are defined in Part I, Section 3(a) and (b) below.)

 

(b) No director, officer or employee or any of their immediate family members who knows of any material nonpublic information about the Company may communicate that information to ("tip") any other person, including family members and friends, or otherwise disclose such information without the Company’s authorization.

 

(c) No director, officer or employee or any of their immediate family members may purchase or sell any security of any other company, whether or not issued by the Company, while in possession of material nonpublic information about that company that was obtained in the course of his or her involvement with the Company. No director, officer or employee or any of their immediate family members who knows of any such material nonpublic information may communicate that information to, or tip, any other person, including family members and friends, or otherwise disclose such information without the Company's authorization.

 

2

 

 

(d) For compliance purposes, you should never trade, tip or recommend securities (or otherwise cause the purchase or sale of securities) while in possession of information that you have reason to believe is material and nonpublic unless you first consult with, and obtain the advance approval of, the Compliance Officer (which is defined in Part I, Section 3(c) below).

 

(e) Covered Persons must "pre-clear" all trading in securities of the Company in accordance with the procedures set forth in Part II, Section 3 below.

 

3. Definitions

 

(a) Material. Insider trading restrictions come into play only if the information you possess is "material." Materiality, however, involves a relatively low threshold. Information is generally regarded as "material" if it has market significance, that is, if its public dissemination is likely to affect the market price of securities, or if it otherwise is information that a reasonable investor would want to know before making an investment decision.

 

Information dealing with the following subjects is reasonably likely to be found material in particular situations:

 

(i) significant changes in the Company's prospects;

 

(ii) significant write-downs in assets or increases in reserves;

 

(iii) developments regarding significant litigation or government agency investigations;

 

(iv) liquidity problems;

 

(v) changes in earnings estimates or unusual gains or losses in major operations;

 

(vi) major changes in the Company's management or the board of directors;

 

(vii) changes in dividends;

 

(viii) extraordinary borrowings;

 

(ix) major changes in accounting methods or policies;

 

(x) award or loss of a significant contract;

 

(xi) cybersecurity risks and incidents, including vulnerabilities and breaches;

 

(xii) changes in debt ratings;

 

(xiii) proposals, plans or agreements, even if preliminary in nature, involving mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, recapitalizations, strategic alliances, licensing arrangements, or purchases or sales of substantial assets; and

 

(xiv) offerings of Company securities.

 

Material information is not limited to historical facts but may also include projections and forecasts. With respect to a future event, such as a merger, acquisition or introduction of a new product, the point at which negotiations or product development are determined to be material is determined by balancing the probability that the event will occur against the magnitude of the effect the event would have on a company's operations or stock price should it occur. Thus, information concerning an event that would have a large effect on stock price, such as a merger, may be material even if the possibility that the event will occur is relatively small. When in doubt about whether particular nonpublic information is material, you should presume it is material. If you are unsure whether information is material, you should either consult the Compliance Officer before making any decision to disclose such information (other than to persons who need to know it) or to trade in or recommend securities to which that information relates or assume that the information is material.

 

3

 

 

(b) Nonpublic. Insider trading prohibitions come into play only when you possess information that is material and "nonpublic." The fact that information has been disclosed to a few members of the public does not make it public for insider trading purposes. To be "public" the information must have been disseminated in a manner designed to reach investors generally, and the investors must be given the opportunity to absorb the information. Even after public disclosure of information about the Company, you must wait until the close of business on the second trading day after the information was publicly disclosed before you can treat the information as public.

 

Nonpublic information may include:

 

(i) information available to a select group of analysts or brokers or institutional investors;

 

(ii) undisclosed facts that are the subject of rumors, even if the rumors are widely circulated; and

As with questions of materiality, if you are not sure whether information is considered public, you should either consult with the Compliance Officer or assume that the information is nonpublic and treat it as confidential.

5. Violations of Insider Trading Laws

 

According to applicable US laws, penalties for trading on or communicating material nonpublic information can be severe, both for individuals involved in such unlawful conduct and their employers and supervisors, and may include jail terms, criminal fines, civil penalties and civil enforcement injunctions. There can also be legal consequence with regard to applicable Chinese laws for above mentioned violations, taking into consideration that our major business activity has been and will be conducted in China by domestic entities. Given the severity of the potential penalties, compliance with this Policy is absolutely mandatory.

 

(a) Legal Penalties.

 

Specified by applicable US laws, a person who violates insider trading laws by engaging in transactions in a company's securities when he or she has material nonpublic information can be sentenced to a substantial jail term and required to pay a criminal penalty of several times the amount of profits gained or losses avoided.

 

In addition, a person who tips others may also be liable for transactions by the tippees to whom he or she has disclosed material nonpublic information. Tippers can be subject to the same penalties and sanctions as the tippees, and the SEC has imposed large penalties even when the tipper did not profit from the transaction.

 

The US Fedaral SEC can also seek substantial civil penalties from any person who, at the time of an insider trading violation, "directly or indirectly controlled the person who committed such violation," which would apply to the Company and/or management and supervisory personnel. These control persons may be held liable for up to the greater of $1 million or three times the amount of the profits gained or losses avoided. Even for violations that result in a small or no profit, the SEC can seek penalties from a company and/or its management and supervisory personnel as control persons.

 

According to the Securities Law of the People’s Republic of China (effective as of March 1, 2020), if activities relating to offering and trading of securities outside the People’s Republic of China disrupts the domestic market order of the People’s Republic of China or harms the legitimate rights and interests of domestic investors, they shall be investigated and imposed legal liabilities pursuant to the relevant provisions of the Law. Therefore, an above mentioned violation of Insider Trading Laws may also lead to a violation of applicable China laws if it satisfies the conditions specified.

 

(b) Company-Imposed Penalties. Employees who violate this Policy may be subject to disciplinary action by the Company, including dismissal for cause. Any exceptions to the Policy, if permitted, may only be granted by the Compliance Officer and must be provided before any activity contrary to the above requirements takes place.

 

6. Inquiries

 

If you have any questions regarding any of the provisions of this Policy, please contact the Compliance Officer at compliance@scienjoy.com.

PART II

 

1. Blackout Periods

 

All Covered Persons are prohibited from trading in the Company's securities during blackout periods as defined below.

 

(a) Quarterly / Interim / Final (where applicable) Blackout Periods. Trading in the Company's securities is prohibited during the period beginning at the close of the market on each fiscal quarter/interim/ annum and ending at the close of business on the second trading day following the date the Company's financial results are publicly disclosed and applicable periodic SEC report is filed. During these periods, Covered Persons generally possess or are presumed to possess material nonpublic information about the Company's financial results.

 

(b) Other Blackout Periods. From time to time, other types of material nonpublic information regarding the Company (such as negotiation of mergers, acquisitions or dispositions, investigation and assessment of cybersecurity incidents or new product developments) may be pending and not be publicly disclosed. While such material nonpublic information is pending, the Company may impose special blackout periods during which Covered Persons are prohibited from trading in the Company's securities. If the Company imposes a special blackout period, it will notify the Covered Persons affected.

 

(c) Exception. These trading restrictions do not apply to transactions under a pre-existing written plan, contract, instruction, or arrangement under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (an "Approved 10b5-1 Plan") that:

 

(i) has been reviewed and approved at least one month in advance of any trades thereunder by the Compliance Officer (or, if revised or amended, such revisions or amendments have been reviewed and approved by the Compliance Officer at least one month in advance of any subsequent trades);

 

(ii) was entered into in good faith by the Covered Person at a time when the Covered Person was not in possession of material nonpublic information about the Company; and

 

(iii) gives a third party the discretionary authority to execute such purchases and sales, outside the control of the Covered Person, so long as such third party does not possess any material nonpublic information about the Company; or explicitly specifies the security or securities to be purchased or sold, the number of shares, the prices and/or dates of transactions, or other formula(s) describing such transactions.

 

2. Trading Window

 

Covered Persons are permitted to trade in the Company's securities when no blackout period is in effect. Generally, this means that Covered Persons can trade during the period beginning on DAY THAT BLACKOUT PERIOD UNDER SECTION 1(A) ENDS and ending on DAY THAT NEXT BLACKOUT PERIOD UNDER SECTION 1(A) BEGINS. However, even during this trading window, a Covered Person who is in possession of any material nonpublic information should not trade in the Company's securities until the information has been made publicly available or is no longer material. In addition, the Company may close this trading window if a special blackout period under Part II, Section 1(b) above is imposed and will re-open the trading window once the special blackout period has ended.

 

6

 

 

3. Pre-Clearance of Securities Transactions

 

(a) Because Company Insiders are likely to obtain material nonpublic information on a regular basis, the Company requires all such persons to refrain from trading, even during a trading window under Part II, Section 2 above, without first pre-clearing all transactions in the Company's securities.

 

(b) Subject to the exemption in subsection (d) below, no Company Insider may, directly or indirectly, purchase or sell (or otherwise make any transfer, gift, pledge or loan of) any Company security at any time without first obtaining prior approval from the Compliance Officer. These procedures also apply to transactions by such person's spouse, other persons living in such person’s household and minor children and to transactions by entities over which such person exercises control.

 

(c) The Compliance Officer shall record the date each request is received and the date and time each request is approved or disapproved. Unless revoked, a grant of permission will normally remain valid until the close of trading two business days following the day on which it was granted. If the transaction does not occur during the two-day period, pre-clearance of the transaction must be re-requested.

 

(d) Pre-clearance is not required for purchases and sales of securities under an Approved 10b5-1 Plan. With respect to any purchase or sale under an Approved 10b5-1 Plan, the third party effecting transactions on behalf of the Company Insider should be instructed to send duplicate confirmations of all such transactions to the Compliance Officer.

 

4. Prohibited Transactions

 

(a) Company Insiders are prohibited from trading in the Company's equity securities during a blackout period imposed under an "individual account" retirement or pension plan of the Company, during which at least 50% of the plan participants are unable to purchase, sell or otherwise acquire or transfer an interest in equity securities of the Company, due to a temporary suspension of trading by the Company or the plan fiduciary.

 

(b) Covered Persons, including any person's spouse, other persons living in such person's household and minor children and entities over which such person exercises control, are prohibited from engaging in the following transactions in the Company's securities unless advance approval is obtained from the Compliance Officer:

 

(i) Short-term trading. Company Insiders who purchase Company securities may not sell any Company securities of the same class for at least six months after the purchase;

 

(ii) Short sales. [Company Insiders/Covered Persons] may not sell the Company's securities short;

 

(iii) Options trading. Covered Persons may not buy or sell puts or calls or other derivative securities on the Company's securities;

 

(iv) Trading on margin or pledging. Covered Persons may not hold Company securities in a margin account or pledge Company securities as collateral for a loan; and

 

(v) Hedging. Covered Persons may not enter into hedging or monetization transactions or similar arrangements with respect to Company securities.

 

5. Acknowledgment and Certification

 

All Covered Persons are required to sign the attached acknowledgment and certification.

(Amounts in thousands of Renminbi (“RMB”) and US dollars (“US$”), except share and per share data or otherwise stated)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

 

(a) Principal activities

 

Scienjoy Inc. (the “Company” or “Scienjoy”) is a holding company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands on March 2, 2017 with authorized shares of 500,000,000 shares at a par value of $0.0001.

 

The Company through its subsidiaries, and variable interest entities(“VIE”) and its subsidiaries noted below are principally engaged in operating its own live streaming platforms in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”), which enable users to view and interact with broadcasters through online chat, virtual items and playing games. The primary theme of the Company’s platform is entertainment live streaming.

 

(b) Reorganization

 

On January 1, 2018, Tongfang Investment Fund Series SPC (“TF”) completed the acquisition of a 65% equity interest in Sixiang Times (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd (“Sixiang Times”) from NQ Mobile Inc. Through the acquisition of Sixiang Times, TF acquired a controlling position in Holgus Sixiang Information Technology Co., Ltd (“Holgus”), Kashgar Sixiang Times Internet Technology Co., Ltd (“Kashgar”), Beijing Sixiang Shiguang Technology Co., Ltd (“SG”), Hai Xiu (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd (“HX”) and Beijing Le Hai Technology Co., Ltd (“LH”).

 

On May 18, 2017, the Company established its wholly owned subsidiary in Hong Kong, Scienjoy International Limited (“Scienjoy HK”), as a holding company holding all of the outstanding shares of Sixiang Wuxian (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd (“WX” or “WFOE”) which was established in PRC on October 17, 2017 under the laws of the People’s Republic of China as a holding company holding all of the equity interest of Sixiang Zhihui (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd. (“ZH”),which was incorporated on July 5, 2018.

 

The Company established ZH (through WX), as a holding company for purpose of holding all of the outstanding equity interest of Holgus and Kashgar, as follows:

 

(i) On July 18, 2018, Sixiang Times and ZH executed an equity transfer agreement. Pursuant to the agreement, 100% equity interest in Holgus was transferred to ZH.

 

(ii) On July 24, 2018, Sixiang Times and ZH executed an equity transfer agreement. Pursuant to the agreement, 100% equity interest in Kashgar was transferred to ZH. In consideration of the transfer, the Company paid RMB10,000 to the former shareholders of Kashgar.

 

On November 16, 2018, Sixiang Times and other minority shareholders respectively entered into certain equity transfer agreements with Sixiang Huizhi (Beijing) Technology Culture Co., Ltd. (“HZ”) and Tianjin Sihui Peiying Technology Co., Ltd. (“SY”), and transfer 100% equity interest in SG to HZ, and transfer 100% equity interest in HX and LH to HZ and SY accordingly. Both HZ and SY were ultimately controlled by TF.

 

On January 28, 2019, HZ and SY executed equity transfer agreement with Zhihui Qiyuan (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd. (“QY”). Pursuant to the agreement, 100% equity interest in SG, HX and LH were transferred to QY which is ultimately controlled by TF. In consideration of the transfer, the Company paid RMB 32,000 to the former shareholders of SG, HX and LH.

 

On January 29, 2019, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary WFOE, entered into a series of contractual arrangements (VIE Agreements) with QY and its respective shareholders, and in substance controlled all equity shares, risk and reward of SG, HX and LH through QY accordingly as a primary beneficiary of QY.

1. ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES (CONTINUED)

 

On January 29, 2019, the Company completed its reorganization of entities under the common control of the founders. Scienjoy, Scienjoy HK, WX (or WFOE) and ZH were established as holding Companies. WFOE holds 100% of equity interests of ZH which holds 100% of equity interest in Kashgar and Holgus. WFOE is the primary beneficiary of QY which holds 100% equity interest in SG, HX and LH. These transactions were between entities under common control, and therefore accounted for in a manner similar to the pooling of interest method. Under the pooling-of-interests method, combination between two businesses under common control is accounted for at carrying amounts with retrospective adjustment of prior period financial statements, and the equity accounts of the combining entities are combined and the difference between the consideration paid and the net assets acquired is reflected as an equity transaction (i.e., distribution to parent company). As opposed to the purchase method of accounting, no intangible assets are recognized in the transaction, and no goodwill is recognized as a result of the combination.

 

(c) Recent developments

 

On January 10, 2020, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with the former shareholder of Lixiaozhi (Chongqing) Internet Technology Co., Ltd. (“LXZ”) to acquire 100% equity interest in LXZ with a cash consideration of RMB 200 (US$28).

 

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) surfaced. COVID-19 has spread rapidly to many parts of the PRC and other parts of the world in the first quarter of 2020, which has caused significant volatility in the PRC and international markets. In the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic did not have a material net impact on the Company’s financial positions and operating results. The extent of the impact on the Company’s second quarter 2020 results and beyond will be dependent on future developments such as the length and severity of the crisis, the potential resurgence of the crisis, future government actions in response to the crisis and the overall impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy and capital markets, among many other factors, all of which remain highly uncertain and unpredictable. Given this uncertainty, the Company is currently unable to quantify the expected impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its future operations, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations if the current situation continues.

(Amounts in thousands of Renminbi (“RMB”) and US dollars (“US$”), except share and per share data or otherwise stated)

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

(a) Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. The information included in this quarterly report should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 on Proxy statement filed with the SEC on April 10, 2020.

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries, and its VIE and VIE’s subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control and, when applicable, entities for which the Company has a controlling financial interest or is the primary beneficiary. All significant inter-company transactions and balances between the Company, its subsidiaries and the VIE are eliminated upon consolidation.

 

(b) Business combinations

 

The Company accounts for all business combinations under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). The purchase method of accounting requires that the consideration transferred to be allocated to net assets including separately identifiable assets and liabilities the Company acquired, based on their estimated fair value. The consideration transferred in an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the fair values at the date of exchange of the assets given, liabilities incurred, and equity instruments issued as well as the contingent considerations and all contractual contingencies as of the acquisition date. The costs directly attributable to the acquisition are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired or assumed are measured separately at their fair value as of the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any non-controlling interests. The excess of (i) the total of the cost of the acquisition, fair value of the non-controlling interests and acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest in the acquiree over (ii) the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the acquiree is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the acquiree, the difference is recognized directly in earnings. The determination and allocation of fair values to the identifiable net assets acquired and liabilities assumed is based on various assumptions and valuation methodologies requiring considerable judgment from management. Although the Company believes that the assumptions applied in the determination are reasonable based on information available at the date of acquisition, actual results may differ from forecasted amounts and the differences could be material.

 

(c) Use of estimates

 

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Areas where management uses subjective judgment include, but are not limited to revenue recognition, estimating the useful lives of long-lived assets and intangible assets, valuation assumptions in performing asset impairment tests of long-lived assets, allowance for doubtful accounts, and valuation of deferred taxes and deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and as such, differences may be material to the consolidated financial statements.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

(d) Foreign currency

 

The functional currency of the Company is in Renminbi (“RMB”), as determined based on the criteria of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 830 (“ASC 830”) “Foreign Currency Matters”. The reporting currency of the Company is also the RMB. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are re-measured into RMB at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Foreign currency denominated financial assets and liabilities are re-measured at the balance sheet date exchange rate. Exchange gains and losses are included in foreign exchange gains and losses in the combined statements of income.

 

(e) Convenience translation
   

Translations of balances in the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of income and consolidated statements of cash flows from RMB into USD (or “US$”) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019 are solely for the convenience of the reader and were calculated at the rate of US$1.00 = RMB6.9618, representing the noon buying rate in The City of New York for cable transfers of RMB as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on the last trading day of December 28, 2019. Translations of balances in the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of income and consolidated statements of cash flows from RMB into USD (or “US$”) as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2020 are solely for the convenience of the reader and were calculated at the rate of US$1.00 = RMB7.0942, representing the noon buying rate in The City of New York for cable transfers of RMB as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on the last trading day of March 27, 2020. No representation is made that the RMB amounts represent or could have been, or could be, converted, realized or settled into US$ at that rate, or at any other rate.

 

(f) Accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts

 

Accounts receivable are stated at the historical carrying amount net of allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts are considered overdue after 180 days.

 

The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts which reflects its best estimate of amounts that potentially will not be collected. The Company determines the allowance for doubtful accounts taking into consideration various factors including but not limited to historical collection experience and credit-worthiness of the debtors as well as the age of the individual receivables balance. Additionally, the Company makes specific bad debt provisions based on any specific knowledge the Company has acquired that might indicate that an account is uncollectible. The facts and circumstances for each account may require the Company to use substantial judgment in assessing its collectability.

 

Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the likelihood of collection is not probable.

  

(g) Deferred IPO costs

 

Pursuant to ASC 340-10-S99-1, offering costs directly attributable to an offering of equity securities are deferred and would be charged against the gross proceeds of the offering as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. These costs include legal fees related to the registration drafting and counsel, consulting fees related to the registration preparation, SEC filing and print related costs, exchange listing costs, and road show related costs. As of March 31, 2020, the Company has not concluded its offering. Accordingly, the Company recorded a deferred offering cost of RMB 1,307 and RMB 2,173(US$306) as of December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2020, respectively.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

(h) Long term investment

 

ASU 2016-01 (“ASU 2016-01”), Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities amends certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments. The main provisions require equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value through earnings, unless they qualify for a measurement alternative. The Company adopted the new financial instruments accounting standard from January 1, 2019. Prior to January 1, 2019, the Company did not have any long term investment.

 

Equity Investments with Readily Determinable Fair Values

 

Equity investments with readily determinable fair values are measured and recorded at fair value using the market approach based on the quoted prices in active markets at the reporting date.

 

Equity Investments without Readily Determinable Fair Values

 

After the adoption of this new accounting standard, the Company elected to record equity investments without readily determinable fair values and not accounted for under the equity method at cost, less impairment, adjusted for subsequent observable price changes on a nonrecurring basis, and report changes in the carrying value of the equity investment in current earnings. Changes in the carrying value of the equity investment are required to be made whenever there are observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or similar investment of the same issuer. Reasonable efforts shall be made to identify price changes that are known or that can reasonably be known.

 

Equity Investments Accounted for Using the Equity Method

 

The Company accounts for its equity investment over which it has significant influence but does not own a majority equity interest or otherwise control using the equity method. The Company adjusts the carrying amount of the investment and recognizes investment income or loss for share of the earnings or loss of the investee after the date of investment. The Company assesses its equity investment for other-than-temporary impairment by considering factors including, but not limited to, current economic and market conditions, operating performance of the entities, including current earnings trends and undiscounted cash flows, and other entity-specific information. The fair value determination, particularly for investment in privately held entity, requires judgment to determine appropriate estimates and assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could affect the calculation of the fair value of the investment and determination of whether any identified impairment is other-than-temporary.

 

Investments held by the Company as of December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2020 comprised of equity investment in a privately-held entity - Hangzhou Zhengrui Energy Technology LLP. (“Zhengrui”), in which the Company owns 18% equity interest. The Company does not have significant influence in Zhengrui due to the level of ownership and no participations on Zhengrui’s significant business operating and strategic decisions. The Company elected to record equity investments without readily determinable fair values and not accounted for under the equity method at cost, less impairment. As of December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2020, Zhengrui was still in startup stage and did not have any significant business activities, the Company did not consider there was any facts indicating the fair value of the investment was less than it carrying value.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

(i) Fair value of financial instruments

 

ASC 825-10 requires certain disclosures regarding the fair value of financial instruments. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-level fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

 

Level 1 — inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 

  Level 2 — inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted market prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

 

  Level 3 — inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable. 

 

The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables included in prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payables, balances with related parties and other current liabilities, approximate their fair values because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.

 

(j) Revenue recognition

 

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2019. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2019 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company’s historic accounting under Topic 605. Based on the Company’s assessment, the adoption of ASC 606 did not result in any adjustment on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and there were no material differences between the Company’s adoption of ASC 606 and its historic accounting under ASC 605.

 

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised virtual items or services is transferred to the Company’s customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those virtual items or services. Revenue is recorded, net of sales related taxes and surcharges. The Company derives their revenue from live streaming service and technical service.

 

Live streaming

 

The Company is principally engaged in operating its own live streaming platforms, which enable broadcasters and viewers to interact with each other during live streaming. The Company is responsible for providing a technological infrastructure to enable the broadcasters, online users and viewers to interact through live streaming platforms. All the platforms can be accessed for free. The Company mainly derives the revenue from sales of virtual items in the platforms. The Company has a recharge system for users to purchase the Company’s virtual currency then purchase virtual items for use. Users can recharge via various online third-party payment platforms, including WeChat Pay, AliPay and other payment platforms. Virtual currency is non-refundable and often consumed soon after it is purchased.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

(j) Revenue recognition (continued)

 

The Company designs, creates and offers various virtual items for sales to users with pre-determined stand-alone selling price. Virtual items are categorized as consumable and time-based items. Consumable items are consumed upon purchase and use while time-based items could be used for a fixed period of time. Users can purchase and present consumable items to broadcasters to show support for their favorite broadcasters, or purchase time-based virtual items for one or multiple months for a monthly fee, which provide users with recognized status, such as priority speaking rights or special symbols over a period of time.

 

The Company shares a portion of the sales proceeds of virtual items (“revenue sharing fee”) with broadcasters and talent agencies in accordance with their revenue sharing arrangements. Broadcasters, who do not have revenue sharing arrangements with the Company, are not entitled to any revenue sharing fee. The Company also utilizes third-party payment collection channels, which charges the payment handling cost for users to purchase the virtual currency directly from it. The payment handling costs are recorded in cost of sales.

 

The Company evaluates and determines that it is the principal and views users to be its customers, because the Company controls the virtual items before they are transferred to users. Its control is evidenced by the Company’s sole ability to monetize the virtual items before they are transferred to users, and is further supported by the Company being primarily responsible to the users for the delivery of the virtual items as well as having full discretion in establishing pricing for the virtual items. Accordingly, the Company reports live streaming revenues on a gross basis with the amounts billed to users recorded as revenues and revenue sharing fee paid to broadcasters and related agencies recorded as cost of revenues.

 

Sales proceeds are initially recorded as deferred revenue and recognized as revenue based on the consumption of the virtual items. The Company has determined that each individual virtual item represents a distinct performance obligation. Accordingly, live streaming revenue is recognized immediately when the consumable virtual item is used, or in the case of time-based virtual items, revenue is recognized over the fixed period on a straight line basis. The Company does not have further obligations to the user after the virtual items are consumed. The Company’s live streaming virtual items are generally sold without right of return and the Company does not provide any other credit and incentive to its users. Unconsumed virtual currency is recorded as deferred revenue.

 

The Company also cooperates with independent third-party distributors to sell virtual currency through annual distribution agreements with these distributors. Third-party distributors purchase virtual currency from the Company with no refund provision according to the annual distribution agreements, and they are responsible for selling the virtual currency to end users. They may engage their own sales representatives, which are referred to as “sales agents” to directly sell to individual end users. The Company has no control over such “sales agents”. The Company has discretion to determine the price of the virtual currency sold to its third-party distributors, but has no discretion as to the price at which virtual currency is sold by its third-party distributors to the sales agents.

 

Technical Services

 

The Company generated technical revenues from providing technical development and advisory, which accounts for only less than 1% of revenue. As the amount was immaterial, and short-term in nature which is usually less than six months, the Company recognizes revenue when service were rendered and accepted by customers.

 

Practical expedients and exemptions

 

The Company’s contracts have an original duration of one year or less. Accordingly, the Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

(j) Revenue recognition (continued)

 

 Contract balances

 

Contract balances include accounts receivable and deferred revenue. Accounts receivable primarily represent cash due from distributors and are recorded when the right to consideration is unconditional. The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects the best estimate of probable losses inherent to the account receivable balance. Deferred revenue primarily includes unconsumed virtual currency and unamortized revenue from time-based virtual items in the Company’s platforms, where there is still an obligation to be provided by the Company, which will be recognized as revenue when all of the revenue recognition criteria are met. Due to the generally short-term duration of the relevant contracts, the majority of the performance obligations are satisfied within one year.

 

(k) Research and development expenses

 

Research and development expenses primarily consist of (1) salaries and benefits expenses incurred for research and development personnel, and (2) rental, general expenses and depreciation expenses associated with the research and development activities. Expenditures incurred during the research phase are expensed as incurred and no research and development expenses were capitalized as of December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2020.

 

(l) Sales and marketing expenses

 

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of advertising and market promotion expenses. The advertising and market promotion expenses amounted to RMB714 and RMB1,264 (US$178) for three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2020, respectively.

 

(m) Leases

 

Leases are classified at the inception date as either a capital lease or an operating lease. The Company did not enter into any leases whereby it is the lessor for any of the periods presented. As the lessee, a lease is a capital lease if any of the following conditions exists: a) ownership is transferred to the lessee by the end of the lease term, b) there is a bargain purchase option, c) the lease term is at least 75% of the property’s estimated remaining economic life, or d) the present value of the minimum lease payments at the beginning of the lease term is 90% or more of the fair value of the leased property to the lessor at the inception date. A lease involving integral equipment is a capital lease only if condition (a) or (b) exists. A capital lease is accounted for as if there was an acquisition of an asset and an incurrence of an obligation at the inception of the lease.

 

All other leases are accounted for as operating leases wherein rental payments are expensed on a straight-line basis over the periods of their respective leases. The Company leases office space under operating lease agreements. Certain of the lease agreements contain rent holidays. Rent holidays are considered in determining the straight-line rent expense to be recorded over the lease term. The lease term begins on the date of initial possession of the lease property for purposes of recognizing lease expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The excess of rent expense and rent paid, as the case may be for respective leases, is recorded as deferred rental included in the prepaid expenses and other current assets in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

(n) Income taxes

 

The Company accounts for current income taxes in accordance with the laws of the relevant tax authorities. The Company follows the liability method in accounting for income taxes in accordance to ASC topic 740 (“ASC 740”), Income Taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the period in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance would be recorded against deferred tax assets if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

The guidance on accounting for uncertainties in income taxes prescribes a more likely than not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Guidance was also provided on recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for income taxes in interim periods, and income tax disclosures. Significant judgment is required in evaluating the Company’s uncertain tax positions and determining its provision for income taxes. The Company recognizes interests and penalties, if any, under accrued expenses and other current liabilities on its balance sheet and under other expenses in its statement of comprehensive loss. The Company did not recognize any interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2020. As of December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2020, the Company did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.

 

(o) Value added tax (“VAT”)

 

Revenue represents the invoiced value of service, net of VAT. The VAT is based on gross sales price and VAT rates range up to 13%, depending on the type of service provided. Entities that are VAT general taxpayers are allowed to offset qualified input VAT paid to suppliers against their output VAT liabilities. Net VAT balance between input VAT and output VAT is recorded in tax payable. All of the VAT returns filed by the Company’s subsidiaries in China, have been and remain subject to examination by the tax authorities for five years from the date of filing.

 

(p) Segment reporting

 

The Company follows ASC 280, “Segment Reporting.” The Company’s Chief Executive Officer or chief operating decision-maker reviews the consolidated financial results when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing the performance of the Company as a whole and hence, the Company has only one reportable segment. The Company operates and manages its business in PRC China as a single segment. As the Company’s long-lived assets are substantially all located in the PRC and substantially all the Company’s revenues are derived from within the PRC, no geographical segments are presented.

(q) Recent accounting pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02 (“ASU 2016-02”), Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 specifies the accounting for leases. For operating leases, ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, in its balance sheet. The standard also requires a lessee to recognize a single lease cost, calculated so that the cost of the lease is allocated over the lease term, on a generally straight-line basis. In July 2018, ASU 2018-11, the FASB further amended the guidance to provide another transition method in addition to the existing transition method by allowing entities to initially apply the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognize an accumulative-effective adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. For non-public business entities, this aforementioned guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, by which to defer the effective date for all other entities by an additional year. Early adoption is permitted. As of March 31, 2020, the Company has RMB 22,424 (US$3,161) of future minimum operating lease commitments that are not currently recognized on its unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets (Note 14). Therefore, the Company would expect changes to its consolidated balance sheets for the recognition of these and any additional leases entered into in the future upon adoption.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 (“ASU 2016-13”), Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. The standard will replace “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost. The standard is effective for non-public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In October 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-17 (“ASU 2018-17”), Consolidation (Topic 810): Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities. The updated guidance requires entities to consider indirect interests held through related parties under common control on a proportional basis rather than as the equivalent of a direct interest in its entirety when determining whether a decision-making fee is a variable interest. The amendments in this update are effective for non-public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted. These amendments should be applied retrospectively with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings at the beginning of the earliest period presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, to simplify the accounting for income taxes. The new guidance eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. It also simplifies aspects of the accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. This ASU will become effective for the Company's annual and interim periods beginning in January 1, 2021, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, Investments - Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) (“ASU 2020-01”), which is intended to clarify the interaction of the accounting for equity securities under Topic 321 and investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting in Topic 323 and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options accounted for under Topic 815. ASU 2020-01 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2021. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of adopting this ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

  3. Concentration of risk

 

(a) Credit risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables included in prepaid expenses, other current assets, and amounts due from related parties. As of December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2020, RMB134,772 (US$ 19,359) and RMB181,474 (US$25,581), respectively, were deposited with major financial institutions located in the PRC. Management believes that these financial institutions are of high credit quality and continually monitor the credit worthiness of these financial institutions. Historically, deposits in Chinese banks are secure due to the state policy on protecting depositors’ interests.

 

For the credit risk related to accounts receivable, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon estimates, factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers and other information. The allowance amounts were immaterial for all periods presented.

 

(b) Currency convertibility risk

 

Substantially all of the Company’s businesses are transacted in RMB, which is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. On January 1, 1994, the PRC government abolished the dual rate system and introduced a single rate of exchange as quoted daily by the People’s Bank of China. However, the unification of the exchange rates does not imply the convertibility of RMB into US$ or other foreign currencies. All foreign exchange transactions continue to take place either through the People’s Bank of China or other banks authorized to buy and sell foreign currencies at the exchange rates quoted by the People’s Bank of China. Approval of foreign currency payments by the People’s Bank of China or other institutions requires submitting a payment application form together with suppliers’ invoices, shipping documents and signed contracts.

 

(c) Significant customers

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2020, no customer individually represents greater than 10% of the total revenue.

 

(d) Significant suppliers

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, one vendor accounted for 40.9% of the Company’s total purchases and three vendors accounted for 37.7%, 30.5% and 12.6% of the Company’s accounts payable as of March 31, 2019. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, one vendor accounted for 42.8% of the Company’s total purchases and one vendor accounted for 44.4% of the Company’s accounts payable as of March 31, 2020.

4. ACQUISITION

 

On January 10, 2020, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with the shareholder of Lixiaozhi (Chongqing) Internet Technology Co., Ltd. (“LXZ”) to acquire 100% equity interest in LXZ with a cash consideration of RMB 200 (US$28). LXZ is engaged in operating its own live streaming platform. The Company believes the acquisition of LXZ helps to enrich its product line, expand its user base and capitalize on the growth potential in the lives streaming market. The operating results of LXZ for the three months ended March 31 2019 and 2020 were not significant to the Company. The operating results of LXZ have been included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements since the acquisition.

 

The Company’s acquisition of LXZ was accounted for as business combination in accordance with ASC 805. Acquisition-related costs incurred for the acquisitions are not material. The following table summarizes the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, which represents the net purchase price allocation at the date of the acquisition based on a valuation performed by an independent valuation firm engaged by the Company

10. INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)

 

 Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are recoverable, management believes that it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income to realize the deferred tax assets for the Company. Thus, there were no valuation allowances as of December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2020 for the deferred tax assets.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

Introduction

 

Wealthbridge is providing the following unaudited pro forma combined financial information to aid you in your analysis of the financial aspects of the Business Combination.

  

The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2020 gives pro forma effect to the Business Combination as if it had been consummated as of that date. The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations the three months ended March 31, 2020 and year ended December 31, 2019 give pro forma effect to the Business Combination as if it had occurred as of January 1, 2019. This information should be read together with Scienjoy’s and Wealthbridge’s respective audited and unaudited financial statements and related notes, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Scienjoy,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Wealthbridge” and other financial information included elsewhere in this Form 8-K and in the definitive proxy statement.

 

The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2020 has been prepared using the following:

 

  Scienjoy’s unaudited historical consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2020, as included as an exhibit this Form 8-K; and

 

  Wealthbridge’s unaudited historical balance sheet as of March 31, 2020, as included as an exhibit this Form 8-K.

 

The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the three months ended Mach 31, 2020 has been prepared using the following:

 

  Scienjoy’s unaudited historical consolidated statement of income for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as included as an exhibit this Form 8-K; and

  

  Wealthbridge’s unaudited historical statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as included as an exhibit this Form 8-K.

 

The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2019 has been prepared using the following:

 

  Scienjoy’s audited historical consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2019, as included elsewhere in the definitive proxy statement; and

  

  Wealthbridge’s audited historical statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2019, as included elsewhere in the definitive proxy statement.

 

Description of the Transactions

  

Wealthbridge acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding securities of Scienjoy, in exchange for approximately 16.4 million ordinary shares of Wealthbridge, among which 1.64 million ordinary shares of Wealthbridge were issued and held in escrow to satisfy any indemnification obligations of the Sellers. The Sellers also received an additional 3,000,000 ordinary shares of Wealthbridge at the closing because Scienjoy’s net income before tax for the year ended December 31, 2019 is RMB 156,540,470, greater than the Earnout 1 Target (as defined in the Share Exchange Agreement). Additionally, the Sellers may be entitled to receive additional earnout shares as further described in the Share Exchange Agreement.

 

Accounting for the Business Combination

 

The Business Combination will be accounted for as a reverse merger in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Wealthbridge will be treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. This determination was primarily based on the holders of Scienjoy expecting to have a majority of the voting power of the post-combination company, Scienjoy senior management comprising substantially all of the senior management of the post-combination company, the relative size of Scienjoy compared to Wealthbridge, and Scienjoy operations comprising the ongoing operations of the post-combination company. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination will be treated as the equivalent of Scienjoy issuing stock for the net assets of Wealthbridge, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Wealthbridge will be stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination will be those of Scienjoy.

Basis of Pro Forma Presentation

 

The historical financial information has been adjusted to give pro forma effect to events that are related and/or directly attributable to the Business Combination, are factually supportable, and as it relates to the unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations, are expected to have a continuing impact on the results of the post-combination company. The adjustments presented on the unaudited pro forma combined financial statements have been identified and presented to provide relevant information necessary for an accurate understanding of the post-combination company upon consummation of the Business Combination.

 

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information is for illustrative purposes only. The financial results may have been different had the companies always been combined. You should not rely on the unaudited pro forma combined financial information as being indicative of the historical financial position and results that would have been achieved had the companies always been combined or the future financial position and results that the post-combination company will experience. Scienjoy and Wealthbridge have not had any historical relationship prior to the Business Combination. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.

 

Included in the shares outstanding and weighted average shares outstanding as presented in the pro forma combined financial statements are 16,400,000 ordinary shares issued to Scienjoy shareholders in connection with the Share Exchange Agreement and 3,000,000 ordinary shares issued to Scienjoy shareholders in connection with achievement of the Earnout 1 Target.

Pro Forma Adjustments to the Unaudited Combined Balance Sheet

 

(A) Derived from the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of Scienjoy as of March 31, 2020. See Scienjoy’s financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this Form 8-K.

 

(B) Derived from the unaudited balance sheet of Wealthbridge as of March 31, 2020. See Wealthbridge’s financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this Form 8-K.

 

(1) Reflects the release of cash from marketable securities held in the trust account.

  

(2) Reflects the settlement of promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $1,282,000 due to the Sponsor and Scienjoy, of which $550,000 will be in cash to the Sponsor, $157,000 will be forgiven by the Sponsor and will therefore be recorded as a capital contribution and $575,000 will be paid to the Sellers through the issuance of 57,500 units, valued at $10.00 per share.

 

(3) Reflects the payment of fees and expenses related to the Business Combination, including $297,000 of accounts payable and accrued expenses directly attributable to the Business Combination, the deferred underwriting fee of $2,012,500 and legal, financial advisory, accounting and other professional fees of $6,407,000. An aggregate of $5,330,000 of fees payable to the underwriter and to an independent third party that acted as an advisor to the Business Combination will be paid through the issuance of an aggregate of 533,000 ordinary shares, valued of $10.00 per share. Wealthbridge and Chardan entered into a deferred underwriting fee agreement on April 10, 2020, pursuant to which Chardan received shares equal to the total amount of deferred underwriting fee divided by the effective conversion price. The effective conversion price is defined as the volume weighted average price (VWAP) of Wealthbridge’s rights from the date of the mailing of the definitive proxy statement to the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting, multiplied by 10. The effective conversion price was calculated to be $4.994, which is based on the VWAP of the rights for the period from April 15, 2020 through May 5, 2020, which resulted in the issuance of 402,983 ordinary shares. The direct, incremental costs of the Business Combination related to the legal, financial advisory, accounting and other professional fees of approximately $6,407,000 is reflected as an adjustment to retained earnings and is not shown as an adjustment to the statement of operations since it is a nonrecurring charge resulting directly from the Business Combination.

 

(4) To reflect the cancellation of $5,208,150 ordinary shares for shareholders who elected cash conversion for payment of $53,754,311.

 

(5) Reflects the recapitalization of Wealthbridge through (a) the contribution of all the share capital in Scienjoy to Wealthbridge, (b) the issuance of 16,400,000 ordinary shares and (d) the elimination of the historical retained earnings of Wealthbridge, the accounting acquiree.

  

In connection with the achievement of the Earnout 1 Target, an aggregate of 3,000,000 ordinary shares were issued to the Scienjoy shareholders.

 

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, 6,077,500 rights (including the rights underlying the units based on the promissory note issued to Scienjoy on January 29, 2020) converted into 602,000 ordinary shares.

Pro Forma Adjustments to the Unaudited Combined Statements of Operations

 

(A) Derived from the unaudited consolidated statement of income of Scienjoy for the three months ended March 31, 2020. See Scienjoy’s financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this Form 8-K.

  

(B) Derived from the unaudited statement of operations of Wealthbridge for the three months ended March 31, 2020. See Wealthbridge’s financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this Form 8-K.

  

(C) Derived from the audited consolidated statement of income of Scienjoy for the year ended December 31, 2019. See Scienjoy’s financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in the definitive proxy statement.

  

(D) Derived from the audited statement of operations of Wealthbridge for the year ended December 31, 2019. See Wealthbridge’s financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in the definitive proxy statement.

  

(1) Represents an adjustment to eliminate direct, incremental costs of the Business Combination which are reflected in the historical financial statements of Scienjoy and Wealthbridge in the amount of $0 and $132,000, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and $689,000 and $264,000, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2019.

 

(2) Represents an adjustment to eliminate interest income and unrealized gain on marketable securities held in the trust account as of the beginning of the period.

 

(3) To record normalized blended statutory income tax benefit rate of 25% for pro forma financial presentation purposes.

 

(4) The calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net loss per share assumes that Wealthbridge’s initial public offering occurred as of January 1, 2019. In addition, as the Business Combination is being reflected as if it had occurred on this date, the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net loss per share assumes that the shares have been outstanding for the entire period presented. This calculation is retroactively adjusted to eliminate the number of shares redeemed in the Business Combination for the entire period.

 

The following presents the calculation of basic and diluted weighted average ordinary shares outstanding. The computation of diluted loss per share excludes the effect of (1) warrants to purchase 3,010,000 ordinary shares and (2) a unit purchase option exercisable for 431,250 ordinary shares, warrants to purchase 215,625 ordinary shares and rights that convert into 43,125 ordinary share, because the inclusion of these securities would be anti-dilutive.
