Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following paragraphs before the last paragraph thereof: On June 2, 2025, Mr. Xiaojun Zhang and Eagle Central Holding Limited entered into a securities purchase agreement (the "Agreement") with Enduring Wealth Capital Limited, a company established in the British Virgin Islands ("EWCL"), among others, pursuant to which Eagle Central Holding Limited will sell an aggregate of 5,000,000 Class B ordinary shares of the Issuer to EWCL for a total purchase price of US$35 million (of which US$7.5 million will be payable only upon the satisfaction of certain conditions) (the "Resale Transaction"). Pursuant to the Agreement, Mr. Jiayuan Lin, the other co-founder, director and chief executive officer of the Issuer, and his holding company will also sell an aggregate of 5,000,000 Class B ordinary shares of the Issuer to EWCL for a total purchase price of US$35 million (of which US$7.5 million will be payable only upon the satisfaction of certain conditions). The Issuer is also a party to the Agreement and agreed to undertake certain corporate actions in connection with the Resale Transaction. Pursuant to the Agreement, in connection with the Resale Transaction, the Issuer will take necessary corporate actions to ensure that the shares of the Issuer to be acquired by EWCL from Eagle Central Holding Limited will continue to be Class B ordinary shares which are entitled to 20 votes per share, and Mr. Xiaojun Zhang will voluntarily convert all of the remaining Class B ordinary shares held by the Reporting Persons into Class A ordinary shares of the Issuer with one vote per share. Following the foregoing transactions, Mr. Xiaojun Zhang and Mr. Jiayuan Lin will cease to collectively hold more than 50% of the total voting power of the outstanding shares of the Issuer. In addition, the board and management team of the Issuer will be restructured in such manner as requested by EWCL conditional upon and effective immediately after closing of the Resale Transaction. The Issuer's execution of the Agreement was approved by the Issuer's audit committee and board. As contemplated by the Agreement, the Issuer is required to obtain shareholders' approval of the corporate actions that the Issuer will need to take to ensure that the shares to be acquired by EWCL from Eagle Central Holding Limited will continue to be Class B ordinary shares with 20 votes per share and to perform the Issuer's other obligations under the Agreement, among others.
