EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

Background

 

Fangdd Network Group Ltd. is a Cayman Islands holding company with no material operations of its own. We conduct our operations in China primarily through our PRC subsidiary Shenzhen Fangdd Information Technology Co., Ltd., or Shenzhen Fangdd or the WFOE, the VIE Shenzhen Fangdd Network Technology Co., Ltd., or Fangdd Network or the VIE, and the VIE’s subsidiaries.

 

Neither we nor our subsidiaries own any equity interest in the VIE. The equity interest of the VIE is legally held by individuals who act as nominee shareholders of the VIE on behalf of the WFOE. A series of contractual arrangements were entered into between the WFOE, the VIE and the VIE’s shareholders, which we refer to as the Fangdd Network VIE Agreements. The Fangdd Network VIE Agreements were originally entered into in March 2014 and subsequently amended to include registration of the equity interest pledge agreements with the relevant registration authority and amended when three nominee shareholders transferred equity interests in Fangdd Network to other nominee shareholders in 2017. The Fangdd Network VIE Agreements allow the WFOE to (i) direct the activities of the VIE and the VIE’s subsidiaries that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and the VIE’s subsidiaries; (ii) receive substantially all of the economic benefits of the VIE and the VIE’s subsidiaries; and (iii) have an exclusive option to purchase all or part of the equity interests in the VIE when and to the extent permitted by PRC law. As a result of the Fangdd Network VIE Agreements, we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE for accounting purposes and treat it as a PRC consolidated entity under U.S. GAAP. We consolidate the financial results of the VIE in our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

 

To simplify and optimize the shareholding structure of the VIE, and after obtaining the approval of our board of directors and its audit committee, the WFOE has directed Mr. Jiancheng Li, Ms. Jingjing Huang and Mr. Wentao Bai to transfer all the equity interests they held in the VIE to Mr. Xi Zeng, our Chairman of Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, for nominal consideration. Following such transfer, shareholders of the VIE include Xi Zeng, Yi Duan, Wei Zhang, Li Zhou, Jiaorong Pan, and Ying Lu, holding 46.62%, 31.95%, 9.00%, 8.88%, 2.66%, and 0.90%, respectively, of the equity interest in the VIE.

 

Summary of Currently Effective Fangdd Network VIE Agreements

 

In relation to the transfers of equity interests in the VIE, our board of directors and its audit committee have approved certain amendments to the Fangdd Network VIE Agreements. The currently effective Fangdd Network VIE Agreements include business operation agreement, powers of attorney, equity interest pledge agreements, operation maintenance service agreement and technology development, application service agreement and option agreements. The following is a summary of the Fangdd Network VIE Agreements.

 

Agreements That Enable Us to Direct Activities of the VIE

 

Business Operation Agreement. The WFOE, the VIE and the VIE’s shareholders have entered into a business operation agreement, pursuant to which the VIE and its shareholders undertake that without the WFOE’s prior written consent, the VIE shall not enter into any transactions that may have material effects on the VIE’s assets, obligations, rights or business operations. Additionally, the VIE’s shareholders undertake that without the WFOE’s prior written consent, they shall not (i) sell, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of any rights associated with their equity interests in the VIE, (ii) approve any merger or acquisition of the VIE, (iii) take any actions that may have a material adverse effect on the VIE’s assets, businesses and liabilities, or sell, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose or impose other encumbrances of any assets, businesses or income of the VIE, (iv) request the VIE to declare dividend or make other distribution, (v) amend the VIE’s articles of association, or (vi) increase, decrease or otherwise change the VIE’s registered capital. The WFOE may request the VIE to transfer at any time all the intellectual property rights held by the VIE to the WFOE or any person designated by the WFOE. The VIE and certain of its shareholders shall be jointly and severally responsible for the performance of their obligations under this agreement. This agreement has an initial term of ten years, and the term has been extended by a supplementary agreement dated November 20, 2023 to November 19, 2033. The term may be further extended upon the WFOE’s unilateral written confirmation prior to the expiry. The VIE has no right of transfer or right of early termination without WFOE’s written confirmation while the WFOE may unilaterally transfer its rights and obligations under this agreement to third parties at any time through written notification and may early terminate this agreement via a 30-day prior written notice.

Powers of Attorney. Each shareholder of the VIE has issued a power of attorney, appointing Xi Zeng, the person designated by the WFOE, as such shareholder’s attorney-in-fact to exercise all shareholder rights, including, but not limited to, the right to call shareholders’ meeting, the right to vote on all matters of the VIE that require shareholder approval, and the right to dispose of all or part of the shareholder’s equity interests in the VIE, on behalf of such shareholder. In the event that the WFOE requests the shareholders to terminate the authorization, the power of attorney will terminate immediately and the shareholder shall then appoint another person designated by the WFOE as his or her attorney-in-fact to exercise all shareholder rights. Other than the foregoing circumstances, the power of attorney will remain in force until the termination of the business operation agreement and during its effective term, shall not be amended.

 

Equity Interest Pledge Agreements. Each shareholder of the VIE has entered into an equity interest pledge agreement with the WFOE and the VIE, pursuant to which, the shareholder has pledged all of his or her equity interests in the VIE to the WFOE to guarantee the performance by the VIE and its shareholders of their obligations under the master agreements, which include the technology development and application service agreement, the operation and maintenance service agreement, the business operation agreement and the option agreements. Each shareholder of the VIE agrees that, during the term of the equity interest pledge agreement, he or she will not transfer the pledged equity interests or create or allow any encumbrance on the pledged equity interests without the prior written consent of the WFOE. The equity interest pledge agreements remain effective until the VIE and its shareholders discharge all of their obligations under the master agreements.

 

Agreements That Allow Us to Receive Economic Benefits from the VIE

 

Technology Development and Application Service Agreement. The WFOE and the VIE have entered into a technology development and application service agreement, pursuant to which, the WFOE has the exclusive right to provide the VIE with technology development and application services. Without the WFOE’s written consent, the VIE shall not accept any technology development and application services covered by this agreement from any third party. The VIE agrees to pay service fees on an annual basis and at an amount determined by the WFOE after taking into account multiple factors, such as the labor and time consumed for provision of the service, the type and complexity of the services provided, the difficulties in providing the service, the commercial value of services provided and the market price of comparable services. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, this agreement will remain effective until the WFOE ceases business operations.

 

Operation Maintenance Service Agreement. The WFOE and the VIE have entered into an operation maintenance service agreement, pursuant to which the WFOE has the exclusive right to provide the VIE with operation maintenance services and marketing services. Without the WFOE’s written consent, the VIE shall not engage any third party to provide the services covered by this agreement. The VIE agrees to pay service fees on an annual basis and at an amount determined by the WFOE after taking into account factors such as the labor cost, facility cost and marketing expenses incurred by the WFOE in providing the services. Unless otherwise agreed by both parties, this agreement will remain effective until the WFOE ceases business operations.

 

Agreements That Provide Us with the Option to Purchase the Equity Interest in the VIE

 

Option Agreements. The WFOE, the VIE and each of the VIE’s shareholders have entered into an option agreement, pursuant to which the VIE’s shareholder has irrevocably granted the WFOE an exclusive option, to the extent permitted by PRC law, to purchase, or have its designated person or persons to purchase, at its discretion all or part of the shareholder’s equity interests in the VIE or all or part of the VIE’s assets. The purchase price shall be a nominal price unless where PRC laws and regulations require valuation of the equity interests or the assets, or promulgate other restrictions on the purchase price, or otherwise prohibit purchasing the equity interests or the assets at a nominal price. If the PRC laws and regulations prohibit purchasing the equity interests or the assets at a nominal price, the purchase price shall be equal to the original investment of the equity interests made by such shareholders or the book value of the assets. Where PRC laws and regulations require valuation of the equity interests or the assets or promulgates other restrictions on the purchase price, the purchase price shall be the minimum price permitted under PRC laws and regulations. However, if the minimum price permitted under PRC laws and regulations exceeds the original investment of the equity interests or the book value of the assets, the shareholders of the VIE shall return the difference to the WFOE after deducting all taxes paid under PRC laws and regulations. The shareholders of the VIE undertake, among other things, that without the WFOE’s prior written consent, they shall not take any actions that may have material effects on the VIE’s assets, operations and liabilities, nor shall they appoint or replace any directors, supervisors or other officers of the VIE. These agreements have an initial term of ten years, and the term has been extended by supplementary agreements to November 19, 2033. The term may be extended upon the WFOE’s written confirmation prior to the expiry.

Fangdd agrees that the Pledgor shall pledge the relevant equity interests to the Pledgee in accordance with this Agreement.

1.2The validity of the guarantee under this Agreement shall not be affected by any amendment or change of the Master Agreement, and the guarantee under this Agreement shall remain in force in respect of any obligations of the Pledgor and Fangdd under the amended Master Agreement. No invalidity, revocation or cancellation of the Master Agreement shall affect the validity of this Agreement. If any Master Agreement becomes invalid or is revoked or canceled for any reason, the Pledgee shall have the right to immediately realize its pledge in accordance with the provisions of Clause 11 hereof.
