Luckin Coffee Receives Notice of Satisfaction of Penalty Provisions from the Securities and Exchange Commission

Luckin Coffee Inc. (in Provisional Liquidation) (“Luckin Coffee” or the “Company”) (OTC: LKNCY) has satisfied the civil penalties arising from its previously disclosed settlement agreement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). As set forth in the Final Judgment of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Court”), the Company was subject to a civil penalty of US$180 million, which was to be offset by the value of any cash payments made to its security holders pursuant to the previously announced scheme of arrangement which governs the restructuring of Luckin Coffee’s US$460 million 0.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the “Scheme”).

On February 3, 2022, the SEC filed with the Court a notice (the “Notice”) acknowledging that Luckin Coffee has satisfied the penalty provisions of the Final Judgment of the Court by making cash payments to the Company’s security holders through the Scheme. A copy of the Notice is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 6-K.
