IMPORTANT NOTICES

 

Important Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, both as amended. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about the pending transactions among Orisun Acquisition Corp. (“Orisun”), Ucommune International Ltd (“Purchaser”), Everstone International Ltd (“Merger Sub”), and Ucommune Group Holdings Limited (“Ucommune”) and the transactions contemplated thereby, and the parties’ perspectives and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the proposed transaction, including the anticipated initial enterprise value and post-closing equity value, the benefits of the proposed transaction, integration plans, expected synergies and revenue opportunities, anticipated future financial and operating performance and results, including estimates for growth, the expected management and governance of the combined company, and the expected timing of the transactions. The words “expect,” “believe,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan” and similar expressions indicate forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to various risks and uncertainties, assumptions (including assumptions about general economic, market, industry and operational factors), known or unknown, which could cause the actual results to vary materially from those indicated or anticipated.

 

Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: (i) risks related to the expected timing and likelihood of completion of the pending transaction, including the risk that the transaction may not close due to one or more closing conditions to the transaction not being satisfied or waived, such as regulatory approvals not being obtained, on a timely basis or otherwise, or that a governmental entity prohibited, delayed or refused to grant approval for the consummation of the transaction or required certain conditions, limitations or restrictions in connection with such approvals; (ii) risks related to the ability of Orisun and Ucommune to successfully integrate the businesses; (iii) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the applicable transaction agreements; (iv) the risk that there may be a material adverse change with respect to the financial position, performance, operations or prospects of Ucommune or Orisun; (v) risks related to disruption of management time from ongoing business operations due to the proposed transaction; (vi) the risk that any announcements relating to the proposed transaction could have adverse effects on the market price of Orisun’s securities; (vii) the risk that the proposed transaction and its announcement could have an adverse effect on the ability of Ucommune and Orisun to retain customers and retain and hire key personnel and maintain relationships with their suppliers and customers and on their operating results and businesses generally; (viii) the risk that the combined company may be unable to achieve cost-cutting synergies or it may take longer than expected to achieve those synergies; and (ix) risks associated with the financing of the proposed transaction. A further list and description of risks and uncertainties can be found in Orisun’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019 filed with the SEC, in Orisun’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC subsequent thereto and in the Registration Statement on Form F-4 and proxy statement that will be filed with the SEC by the Purchaser in connection with the proposed transactions, and other documents that the parties may file or furnish with the SEC, which you are encouraged to read. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those indicated or anticipated by such forward-looking statements. Accordingly, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements relate only to the date they were made, and Orisun, Purchaser, Merger Sub, Ucommune, and their subsidiaries undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date they were made except as required by law or applicable regulation.

a)  During the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s estimated date of filing of, and ending on the date immediately following the effective date of, any registration statement pertaining to securities of the Company (other than a registration of securities in a transaction under Rule 145 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 145”) or with respect to an employee benefit plan), provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective;

 

b)  After the Company has effected two (2) such registrations pursuant to this Section 4.01 and each such registration has been declared or ordered effective;

 

c)  If any such Requesting Holders may dispose of shares of Registrable Securities pursuant to an effective registration statement on Form S-3 or Form F-3 under the Securities Act as in effect on the date hereof or any successor form under the Securities Act (“Form S-3/F-3”); or

 

d)  The Company shall not undertake, or be required to undertake, any action to qualify, register or list any securities on any exchange other than the exchange on which its securities are traded at the time.

 

Section 4.02 “Piggyback” Registration Rights. The Company hereby agrees with the Holders that at any time after the Closing, if the Company shall determine to proceed with the actual preparation and filing of a new registration statement under the Securities Act in connection with the proposed offer and sale of any of its securities by it or any of its security holders (other than (a) a registration statement on Form F-4, F-8 or other limited purpose form or (b) any registration under Section 4.01 of this Agreement), the Company will give written notice of its determination to all Holders. Upon the written request from any Holders (the “Requesting Piggyback Holders”), within 10 days after their receipt of any such notice from the Company, the Company will, except as herein provided, cause all of the Company Class A Ordinary Shares covered by such request (the “Requested Piggyback Shares”) held by the Requesting Piggyback Holders to be included in such registration statement, all to the extent requisite to permit the sale or other disposition by the prospective seller or sellers of the Requested Piggyback Shares. If any registration pursuant to this Section 4.02 shall be underwritten in whole or in part, the Company may require that the Requested Piggyback Shares be included in the underwriting on the same terms and conditions as the securities otherwise being sold through the underwriters. In such event, the Requesting Piggyback Holders shall, if requested by the underwriters, execute an underwriting agreement containing customary representations and warranties by selling shareholders. If in the good faith judgment of the managing underwriter of such public offering the inclusion of all of the Requested Piggyback Shares would reduce the number of shares to be offered by the Company or interfere with the successful marketing of the securities offered by the Company, the number of shares of Requested Piggyback Shares otherwise to be included in the underwritten public offering may be reduced pro rata (by number of shares) among the Requesting Piggyback Holders and all other holders of registration rights with respect to the Company’s shares who have requested inclusion of their securities or excluded in their entirety if so required by the underwriter. Registration pursuant to this Section 4.02 shall not be deemed to be a demand registration as described in Section 4.01 above. The Company’s obligations under this Section 4.02 shall not apply to the shares held by a Holder after the earlier of (a) five (5) years from the date of this Agreement, (b) the date that such shares held by a Holder have been sold pursuant to Rule 144 or an effective registration statement, and (c) such time as such shares held by a Holder are eligible for immediate resale pursuant to Rule 144.

 

  4  

 

  

Section 4.03 Registration Procedures. To the extent required by Sections 4.01 and 4.02, the Company will:

 

a)  prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such securities, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof;

 

b)  prepare and file with the SEC such amendments to such registration statement and supplements to the prospectus contained therein as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective;

 

c)  use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such state securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Holders may reasonably request in writing within 20 days following the original filing of such registration statement, except that the Company shall not for any purpose be required to execute a general consent to service of process or to qualify to do business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction wherein it is not so qualified;

 

d)  notify the Holders, promptly after it shall receive notice thereof, of the time when such registration statement has become effective or a supplement to any prospectus forming a part of such registration statement has been filed;

 

e)  prepare and file with the SEC, promptly upon the request of any Holders, any amendments or supplements to such registration statement or prospectus which, in the opinion of counsel for such Holders (and concurred in by counsel for the Company), is required under the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder in connection with the distribution of ordinary shares by such Holders;

 

f)  prepare and promptly file with the SEC and promptly notify such Holders of the filing of such amendment or supplement to such registration statement or prospectus as may be necessary to correct any statements or omissions if, at the time when a prospectus relating to such securities is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, any event shall have occurred as the result of which any such prospectus or any other prospectus as then in effect would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading; and

 

g)  advise the Holders, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the issuance of any stop order by the SEC suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose.

Failure to do so will at minimum result in exclusion of such Holders’ Company Class A Ordinary Shares from the registration statement.

Ucommune and Orisun Entered Into Backstop Agreements for $53 Million Funding Including Investment From Green Better Limited, a Subsidiary of Xiaomi (HKEX: 1810), and Sunshine 100 China (HKEX: 2608)

  

Ucommune is the largest agile office space manager and co-working community operator in China. Its early investors include Sequoia Capital China, Matrix Partners China, Sinovation Ventures, and ZhenFund.

 

Ucommune and Orisun entered into a merger agreement in June 2020. The transaction is expected to close in Q4 2020.

 

On August 18, 2020, Ucommune and Orisun received $53 million of backstop investment commitments from 14 investors, including leading technology companies and prominent entrepreneurs in China.

 

Backstop investors have the option to either acquire Orisun’s common stock in open market purchases prior to the closing of the business combination, or to purchase common shares in a private placement from the combined company at $10.10 per share at the time of the merger closing.

 

New York, NY — August 24, 2020— Orisun Acquisition Corp. (“Orisun”) (NASDAQ: ORSN, ORSNU, ORSNW, ORSNR), a special purpose acquisition company, announced today that, together with Ucommune International Ltd, it has entered into backstop agreements with 14 investors. The investors agreed to invest no less than $53 million by either (i) acquiring Orisun’s common stock in the open market or in private transactions prior to the closing of the business combination at the then prevailing market price of the shares, or (ii) acquiring common shares in a private placement concurrently with the closing of the business combination at $10.10 per share.

 

“Securing the backstop commitment is an important milestone. It will allow us to execute our growth strategy and strengthen our market leading position,” said Dr. Daqing Mao, founder of Ucommune Group Holdings Limited.

 

Wei Chen, Chairwoman of Orisun commented, “With the $53 million backstop investment commitment, we look forward to working with Ucommune team towards a smooth closing in Q4 2020.”

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This press release contains, and certain oral statements made by representatives of Orisun, Ucommune, and their respective affiliates, from time to time may contain, “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Orisun’s and Ucommune’s actual results may differ from their expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believes,” “predicts,” “potential,” “might” and “continues,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, Orisun’s and Ucommune’s expectations with respect to future performance and anticipated financial impacts of the business combination, the satisfaction of the closing conditions to the business combination and the timing of the completion of the business combination. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected results. Most of these factors are outside the control of Orisun or Ucommune and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to: (1) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the share exchange agreement relating to the proposed business combination; (2) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Orisun or Ucommune following the announcement of the share exchange agreement and the transactions contemplated therein; (3) the inability to complete the business combination, including due to failure to obtain approval of the shareholders of Orisun or other conditions to closing in the share exchange agreement; (4) delays in obtaining or the inability to obtain necessary regulatory approvals (including approval from insurance regulators) required to complete the transactions contemplated by the share exchange agreement; (5) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the share exchange agreement or could otherwise cause the transaction to fail to close; (6) the inability to obtain or maintain the listing of the post-acquisition company’s ordinary shares on NASDAQ following the business combination; (7) the risk that the business combination disrupts current plans and operations as a result of the announcement and consummation of the business combination; (8) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the business combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth profitably and retain its key employees; (9) costs related to the business combination; (10) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (11) the possibility that Ucommune or the combined company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; and (12) other risks and uncertainties to be identified in Orisun’s proxy statement (when available) relating to the business combination, including those under “Risk Factors” therein, and in other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) made by Orisun and Ucommune. Orisun and Ucommune caution that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. Orisun and Ucommune caution readers not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Neither Orisun or Ucommune undertakes or accepts any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in its expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based, subject to applicable law.
