Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

As previously disclosed on the Form 6-K filed on October 8, 2021, on October 7, 2021, Renren Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a stipulation of settlement (the “Stipulation”) as a nominal defendant with respect to the consolidated shareholder derivative lawsuits currently pending in New York State Supreme Court, Commercial Division (the “Court”) under the caption In re Renren, Inc. Derivative Litigation, Index No. 653594/2018.

 

On October 18, 2021 (the “Scheduling Order Date”), the Court entered an order scheduling a hearing to be held virtually on December 9, 2021 at 9:30 a.m., Eastern time, to, among other things, determine whether the proposed settlement on the terms and conditions provided for in the Stipulation is fair reasonable and adequate, and should be approved by the Court.

 

Under the Court’s scheduling order, the Company is required to within three (3) business days of the Scheduling Order Date (i.e., by October 21, 2021), file a Form 6-K, including a copy of Notice to Shareholders (and ADS Holders) of Renren, Inc. of Proposed Settlement of Shareholder Derivative Action, Settlement Hearing, and Right to Appear (the “Notice”) in the form approved by the Court as an exhibit thereto, with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As such, the Notice is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1.

This announcement contains forward-looking statements. These statements are made under the “safe harbor” provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as “will,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “future,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates” and similar statements. Renren may also make written or oral forward-looking statements in its filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), in its annual report to shareholders, in press releases and other written materials and in oral statements made by its officers, directors or employees to third parties. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about Renren’s beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ from the forward-looking statements. In particular, as the proposed settlement is contingent upon, among other things, obtaining the necessary court approval, the Company cautions investors that the forward-looking statements included in this announcement are not a guarantee of future events, and that actual events may differ materially from those made in or suggested by the forward-looking statements.
