The principal business and office address of each of the Reporting Persons is 388 Daduhe Road No. 5 (12th Floor), Putuo District, Shanghai 200062, China.

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

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Not applicable, because none of the Reporting Persons will acquire any Common Shares or ADSs in connection with the ADS Purchase or the Proposed Transaction.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

On January 1, 2018, MBK Partners HK Limited and Mr. Zhang submitted a preliminary, non-binding proposal to the Issuer (the “ Proposal ”), pursuant to which they proposed to acquire all of the outstanding common shares of the Issuer (the “ Common Shares ”) (including Common Shares represented by ADSs) for US$13.35 in cash per ADS or US$6.675 in cash per Common Share (such proposed acquisition, the “ Proposed Transaction ”). The Proposal superseded and replaced the preliminary, non-binding proposal submitted by Goliath Advisors Limited to the Board on November 26, 2017, pursuant to which it proposed to acquire all of the outstanding Common Shares (including Common Shares represented by ADSs) for the same price per ADS and the same price per Common Share set forth in the Proposal.

On February 23, 2018, (i) Fastforward Company Ltd (“ MBKP SPV ”), an affiliate of MBK Partners Fund IV, L.P., (ii) Baring SPV, and (iii) Mr. Zhang (MBKP SPV, Baring SPV and Mr. Zhang together the “ Consortium ” and each a “ Consortium Member ”) entered into a consortium term sheet (the “ Consortium Term Sheet ”) setting forth non-binding, indicative terms regarding the Consortium and the Proposed Transaction, except for certain terms that are legally binding among the Consortium Members. Pursuant to the legally binding terms of the Consortium Term Sheet, among other things, MBKP SPV and Mr. Zhang agreed to work exclusively with each other in good faith in pursuit of the Proposed Transaction until April 1, 2018 (subject to any extension pursuant to the Consortium Term Sheet). The Consortium Term Sheet contemplates Mr. Zhang and certain of his affiliates contributing their Common Shares to an acquisition entity to be created by the Consortium for purposes of the Proposed Transaction, in exchange for equity interests in such acquisition entity, and MBKP SPV and Baring SPV, and/or one or more of their respective affiliates, making cash contributions to such acquisition entity, in exchange for equity interests in such acquisition entity.

On February 23, 2018, Baring SPV entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “ SPA ”) with Tiger Global Mauritius Fund, a Mauritius company limited by shares (“ TGMF ”), for the purchase of 5,264,080 ADSs (the “ Subject ADSs ”), representing 10,528,160 Class A Shares (the “ ADS Purchase ”). The closing of the transaction contemplated by the SPA (the “ Closing ”) is scheduled to occur on or prior to May 30, 2018. The initial purchase price is US$12.00 per ADS, subject to adjustment as provided in the SPA, for an aggregate purchase price for all Subject ADSs of approximately $63.2 million, subject to adjustment as provided in the SPA (the “ Purchase Price ”). Pursuant to the terms of the SPA, Baring SPV paid TGMF a deposit of approximately US$6.3 million, which will be credited against the Purchase Price at the Closing and in certain circumstances may be forfeited in connection with the termination of the SPA. The SPA also provides that, in the event (i) the Issuer enters into a definitive agreement with the Consortium or any affiliates thereof with respect to the Proposed Transaction, (ii) the Proposed Transaction is submitted for the authorization of the Issuer’s shareholders at an extraordinary general meeting, and (iii) the Closing has occurred, and TGMF, for any reason, is entitled to vote or give voting instructions with respect to the Subject ADSs at such extraordinary general meeting, TGMF grants to Baring SPV a proxy to vote and/or give voting instructions with respect to the Subject ADSs in any manner deemed appropriate by Baring SPV.

The information disclosed in this Item 4 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Proposal, the Consortium Term Sheet and the SPA, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 7.02, 7.03 and 7.04, respectively, and which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.

If the Proposed Transaction is entered into and consummated, the ADSs will no longer be traded on the New York Stock Exchange and the registration of the ADSs under Section 12 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, will be terminated.  No assurance can be given that any proposal, any definitive agreement or any transaction relating to the Proposed Transaction will be entered into or consummated.  The Proposal provides that a binding commitment with respect to the Proposed Transaction will result only from the execution of definitive agreements, and then only on the terms and conditions provided in such documentation.

The Reporting Persons reserve their right to change their plans and intentions in connection with any of the actions discussed in this Item 4. Any action taken by the Reporting Persons may be effected at any time or from time to time, subject to any applicable limitations imposed thereon by any applicable laws and the terms of the Consortium Term Sheet. Subject to the terms of the Consortium Term Sheet, the Reporting Persons may, from time to time, acquire or cause affiliates to acquire additional Common Shares and/or ADSs, dispose of some or all of their Common Shares and/or ADSs, engage in short-selling or hedging or similar transactions with respect to the Common Shares and/or ADSs, and/or continue to hold Common Shares and/or ADSs.

In addition, consummation of the Proposed Transaction could result in one or more of the actions specified in clauses (a)-(j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, including the acquisition or disposition of securities of the Issuer, a merger or other extraordinary transaction involving the Issuer, a change to the board of directors of the Issuer (as the surviving company in a merger) to consist solely of persons to be designated by the Consortium Members, and a change in the Issuer’s memorandum and articles of association to reflect that the Issuer would become a privately held company.
