| ITEM 4. | PURPOSE OF THE TRANSACTION |

Consortium Agreement
On February 9, 2021, NFPH, Carnival, Mr. Kam Chung Leung, Ms. Roberta Lipson, Max Rising, Mr. Carl Wu, Mr. Ying Zeng, Vivo LLC, NF SPAC, Sun Hing, Shimao, Aspex Fund, Hysan and LY (collectively, the “Buyer Consortium”) entered into a consortium agreement (the “Consortium Agreement”). Pursuant to the Consortium Agreement, on February 9, 2021, the Buyer Consortium submitted a preliminary, non-binding proposal (the “Proposal”) to the board of directors of the Issuer (the “Board”) to acquire all outstanding Ordinary Shares, which would result in the Issuer becoming a private, wholly owned subsidiary of such entities (the “Merger”). The terms of the Proposal state that in connection with the Merger, each outstanding Ordinary Share (other than those owned by members of the Buyer Consortium which will be rolled over for the purpose of funding the Merger), will be converted into the right to receive a purchase price of US$12.00 per Ordinary Share. The Proposal is subject to negotiation with the Board, and there can be no guarantee that the Merger will be completed in accordance with the terms of the Proposal or at all.
Pursuant to the Consortium Agreement, NFPH and the other parties thereto have agreed that for a period ending on the earlier of (i) the termination of the Consortium Agreement pursuant to its terms and (ii) the date that is twenty-four (24) months after the date of the Consortium Agreement, each party shall (a) work exclusively with the other parties to the Consortium Agreement to effect the Merger and shall not, either directly or through any affiliate, make, solicit, encourage or facilitate a competing acquisition proposal or acquire the beneficial ownership of any additional Ordinary Shares, except in connection with the equity incentive awards granted by the Issuer or exercise of any warrants already held by such party, (b) irrevocably agree to vote any Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by such party, or which may be beneficially owned by such party in the future, in favor of the Merger and any related transactions, (c) not transfer any Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by such party, or which may be beneficially owned by such party in the future, to any person other than any affiliate of such party who is bound by the Consortium Agreement, and (d) roll over all of the Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by such party, or which may be beneficially owned by such party in the future, to fund the Merger.
The foregoing description of the Consortium Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the text of such agreements, which is attached as an exhibit hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
General
The Reporting Persons acquired the securities described in this Schedule 13D for investment purposes and intend to review their investments in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Any actions the Reporting Persons might undertake may be made at any time and from time to time without prior notice and will be dependent upon the Reporting Persons’ review of numerous factors, including, but not limited to: an ongoing evaluation of the Issuer’s business, financial condition, operations and prospects; price levels of the Issuer’s securities; general market, industry and economic conditions; the relative attractiveness of alternative business and investment opportunities; and other future developments.
Subject to the terms of the Consortium Agreement, the Reporting Persons may acquire additional securities of the Issuer, or retain or sell all or a portion of the securities then held, in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. In connection with the Proposal, the Reporting Persons may engage in discussions with management, the Board of Directors, and securityholders of the Issuer and other relevant parties or encourage, cause or seek to cause the Issuer or such persons to consider or explore extraordinary corporate transactions, including the Merger, changes to the capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; or other material changes to the Issuer’s business or corporate structure, including changes in management or the composition of the board of directors of the Issuer. There can be no assurance, however, that any proposed transaction would receive the requisite approvals from the respective governing bodies and shareholders, as applicable, or that any such transaction would be successfully implemented.
Other than as described above, the Reporting Persons do not currently have any plans or proposals that relate to, or would result in, any of the matters listed in Items 4(a)—(j) of Schedule 13D, although, depending on the factors discussed herein, the Reporting Persons may change their purpose or formulate different plans or proposals with respect thereto at any time.
| ITEM 5. | INTEREST OF SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER. |
(a) and (b) The information contained on the cover pages to this Amendment No. 2 is incorporated herein by reference.
Group Interest
As a result of the execution of the Consortium Agreement, each Reporting Person may be deemed to be members of a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act comprising NFPH, Carnival, Mr. Kam Chung Leung, Ms. Roberta Lipson, Max Rising, Mr. Carl Wu, Mr. Ying Zeng, Vivo LLC, Nan Fung, Shimao, Aspex, Hysan and LY. As a result, the group may be deemed to have acquired beneficial ownership of all the Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by each member of the “group”. As such, the group may be deemed to beneficially own in the aggregate 86,179,456 Ordinary Shares, which represents approximately 57.6% of the total outstanding Ordinary Shares. Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents, however, shall be deemed to constitute an admission by the Reporting Persons that any of them is the beneficial owner of any of the Ordinary Shares beneficially owned in the aggregate by other members of the “group” and their respective affiliates for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act or for any other purpose, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed.
(c) Except as set forth in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons have not engaged in any transaction during the past 60 days involving ordinary shares of the Issuer.
(d) None.
(e) Not applicable.
| Item 6. | CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER |
Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is amended and supplemented by inserting the following:
Item 4 above summarizes certain provisions of the Consortium Agreement and is incorporated herein by reference. A copy of this agreement is attached as an exhibit to this Schedule 13D, and each is incorporated herein by reference.
Except as set forth herein, none of the Reporting Persons or Related Persons has any contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) with any person with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including but not limited to any contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships concerning the transfer or voting of such securities, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or losses, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
