Explanatory Note: This Amendment No.1 (“Amendment No. 1”) amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D originally filed by the Reporting Persons on November 15, 2022(the “Schedule 13D”). Unless otherwise indicated, each capitalized term used but not defined in this Amendment No. 1 shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Schedule 13D.


Item 4.		Purpose of Transaction
		Item 4 of Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented to add the following before the last paragraph:

		On January 16, 2024, Mo Chen, as Executive Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), entered into a Cooperation Agreement (the “Cooperation Agreement”) with the Company.

		The Cooperation Agreement was negotiated between Mr. Chen and a special committee of the Board comprised solely of independent directors (the “Special Committee”) on behalf of the Company, in connection with the Special Committee’s determination to approve and authorize the delisting and deregistration of the Company’s Class A Common Stock (“Common Stock”).

		The Cooperation Agreement requires the Company to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”) to provide that the Board will consist of at least three independent directors and to require that any transaction with Mr. Chen (and/or any Chen Affiliate (as defined therein)) would require the approval of a majority of independent directors, a committee composed solely of independent directors or a majority of the disinterested holders of the Common Stock. The Company is required to maintain in effect these Bylaw provisions until the end of the Standstill Period (as defined below). During the Standstill Period, Mr. Chen has agreed to vote all voting shares Beneficially Owned (as defined in the Cooperation Agreement) by him in favor of the Company’s nominees to serve as independent directors at any meeting of the Company’s stockholders occurring during the Standstill Period.

		Also pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement, Mr. Chen agreed to abide by certain standstill provisions set forth in the Cooperation Agreement during a standstill period commencing on the date of the Cooperation Agreement and ending on the date that is two years from the effective date of the Form 15 to be filed by the Company in respect of the Common Stock (the “Standstill Period”). During the Standstill Period, Mr. Chen has agreed not to (among other things) acquire any ownership or other interest in any Common Stock or any Synthetic Position (as defined in the Standstill Agreement) that would cause Mr. Chen to have Beneficial Ownership (as defined in the Standstill Agreement) of more than 25% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock, without the prior approval of a special committee of the Board comprised solely of independent directors or by a majority of independent directors then serving on the Board.

		Additionally, pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement, during the Standstill Period (i) any Extraordinary Transaction (as defined in the Cooperation Agreement) between the Company or its subsidiaries and Mr. Chen (and/or his affiliates or other related persons described therein) shall be negotiated with and approved by a special committee of the Board comprised solely of independent directors or by a majority of independent directors then serving on the Board and (ii) Mr. Chen shall not directly or indirectly participate in any such Extraordinary Transaction unless the terms of such Extraordinary Transaction provide for the same type and amount of per share consideration in respect of shares of Common Stock and/or any other equity securities of the Company subject to such transaction.

		The foregoing description of the Cooperation Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Cooperation Agreement, a copy of which is attached to this Schedule 13D as Exhibit 99.4 and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.		Interest in Securities of the Issuer
		Item 5(a)-(b) of Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

(a)-(b)		Items 7 through 11 and 13 (including the footnotes thereto) of each of the cover pages of this Amendment No. 1 are incorporated by reference into this Item 5. As each share of Class A Common Stock is entitled to one vote and each share of Class B Common Stock is entitled to ten votes, the voting power of the stock beneficially owned represented approximately 58.3% of the total outstanding voting power of the Issuer, calculated based on (i) 205,890,683 shares of Class A common stock of the Issuer issued and outstanding as of October 31, 2023, and (ii) 24,000,000 shares of Class B common stock of the Issuer issued and outstanding as of October 31, 2023, as reported in the Issuer’s Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 9, 2023. Except as set forth in this Item 5(a)—(b), each of the Reporting Persons disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock owned beneficially or of record by any other Reporting Person.

Item 6.		Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with respect to Securities of the Issuer

		Item 6 of Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

		The information set forth in Item 4 of this Amendment is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 7.		Material to be Filed as Exhibits
