Uxin Announces Entry into Supplemental Agreements with Golden Pacer and Closing of Relevant Transaction
Pursuant to the definitive agreements as supplemented and modified by the supplemental agreements entered into today, the Company has divested its entire 2C intra-regional business to Golden Pacer, and ceased to provide loan facilitation related guarantee services in connection with its 2C cross-regional business (which became the sole component of the Company’s 2C business following the divestiture and is currently referred to as “2C online transaction business”) since November 2019. In addition, the Company has agreed to transfer the assets and liabilities in relation to the loans previously facilitated for XW Bank before the divestiture to Golden Pacer, which was completed in the fourth quarter of 2019. Accordingly, the Company is no longer subject to guarantee obligations in relation to its historically-facilitated loans associated with XW Bank. Immediately prior to the divestiture, the outstanding balance of the historically-facilitated loans for XW Bank accounted for more than half of the total outstanding loans the Company facilitated. With regard to the remaining historically-facilitated loans which were not subject to the divestiture, the Company is actively seeking appropriate solutions to manage the corresponding guarantee obligations.In addition, pursuant to the supplemental agreements, upon Golden Pacer’s achievement of certain profitability-related performance targets for both full year 2020 and 2021, the Company is entitled to purchase a certain amount of preferred shares of Golden Pacer in 2020 and 2021, representing up to an aggregate of 18.4% of Golden Pacer’s outstanding shares (assuming no further issue of new shares) on a fully diluted and as-converted basis for US$0.00001 per share. In addition, the Company will be entitled to receive 85% of net cash inflow generated by the divested and transferred assets and liabilities from Golden Pacer in relation to the historically-facilitated loans for XW Bank. The transactions contemplated under the definitive and supplemental agreements were closed upon the signing of the supplemental agreements.The Company’s board of directors, acting upon the unanimous recommendation of its audit committee consisting of independent and disinterested directors, approved the definitive and supplemental agreements as well as the transactions contemplated thereunder. The audit committee reviewed and considered the terms of the definitive and supplemental agreements and the transactions with the assistance of its financial and legal advisors.About Uxin
