The VIE arrangements

PRC regulations limit direct foreign ownership of business entities providing value-added telecommunications services, online advertising services and internet services in the PRC where certain licenses are required for the provision of such services. Although the Company no longer operates businesses requiring the VIE, historically, the Company provided online advertising, Internet value-added services (“IVAS”), and internet finance services through its VIE. Qianxiang Tiancheng, which is referred to as the “VIE”.

Qianxiang Shiji (“WFOE”), the Company’s Wholly Foreign-Owned Enterprise, entered into a series of contractual arrangements, including: (1) Power of Attorney; (2) Business Operation Agreements; (3) Exclusive Equity Option Agreement; (4) Spousal Consent Agreement; (5) Exclusive Technical and Consulting Services Agreement; (6) Intellectual Property Licenses Agreement; (7) Loan Agreements, and (8) Equity Interest Pledge Agreement with the VIE that enable the Company to (1) have power to direct the activities that most significantly affects the economic performance of the VIE, and (2) receive the economic benefits of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. Accordingly, the WFOE is considered the primary beneficiary of the VIE and has consolidated the VIE’s financial results of operations, assets and liabilities in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In making the conclusion that the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE, the Company believes the Company’s rights under the terms of the exclusive option agreement and power of attorney are substantive as they relate to operating matters, which provide the Company with a substantive kick-out right.

More specifically, the Company believes the terms of the contractual agreements are valid, binding, and enforceable under PRC laws and regulations currently in effect. In particular, the Company believes that the minimum amount of consideration permitted by the applicable PRC law to exercise the exclusive option does not represent a financial barrier or disincentive for the Company to exercise its rights under the exclusive option agreement. A simple majority vote of the Company’s board of directors is required to pass a resolution to exercise the Company’s rights under the exclusive option agreement, for which the consent from Mr. Joe Chen, who holds the most voting interests in the Company and is also the Company’s chairman and CEO, is not required. The Company’s rights under the exclusive option agreement give the Company the power to control the shareholders of the VIE and thus the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. In addition, the Company’s rights under powers of attorney also reinforce the Company’s abilities to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. The Company also believes that this ability to exercise control ensures that the VIE will continue to execute and renew service agreements

9

that benefit the Company, currently largely comprised of Research and Development services to the Company’s SaaS businesses. By charging service fees at the sole discretion of the Company, and by ensuring that service agreements are executed and renewed indefinitely, the Company has the right to receive substantially all of the economic benefits from the VIE.

The VIE and its subsidiaries hold the requisite licenses and permits necessary to conduct the Company’s business in PRC under the current business arrangements.

The following financial statement balances and amounts of the Company’s VIE were included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements after elimination of intercompany balances and transactions between the offshore companies, WFOE, VIE and VIE’s subsidiaries. As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023, the balance of the amounts payable by the VIE and its subsidiaries to the WFOE related to the service fees were nil.

There are no consolidated VIE assets that are collateral for the VIE obligations and can only be used to settle the VIE obligations. There are no creditors (or beneficial interest holders) of the VIE that have recourse to the general credit of the Company or any of its consolidated subsidiaries. However, if the VIE ever needs financial support, the Company or its subsidiaries may, at its option and subject to statutory limits and restrictions, provide financial support to its VIE through loans to the shareholders of the VIE or entrustment loans to the VIE.

Relevant PRC laws and regulations restrict the VIE from transferring a portion of its net assets, equivalent to the balance of its statutory reserve and its share capital, to the Company in the form of loans and advances or cash dividends.

2.   REVISION TO PRIOR PERIOD FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Subsequent to the filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 with the SEC (the “2022 Form 10-K”), management of the Company discovered that the Company’s share of loss in the equity investment of Beijing Fenghou Tianyuan Investment and Management Center L.P. (“FHTY”) was different than the amount previously included in its consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022. The difference was discovered upon receipt of additional financial information made available by FHTY following the filing of our Audited financial statements that showed impairments on certain investments held by FHTY as of December 31, 2022. The differences resulted from a change in fair value of certain investments held by FHTY for which the Company would have picked up a loss in the amount of $1.6 million had the Company known of the impairments or had a policy in place to incorporate lag reporting for equity method investments.

Additionally, in connection with the settlement of the shareholder derivative lawsuit, the Company received a one-time dividend of US$2.6 million on January 20, 2023 for ADSs that were held by the Company as of the payment date to settle tax withholdings for ADSs issued to participants under the Company’s share incentive plans. The Company concluded that the one-time dividend should have been recorded in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.  The subsequent event provides a basis to estimate and record the dividend as of December 31, 2022 since the matter was ultimately settled on January 20, 2023 and prior to the filing of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 included in its Form 10-K.

In accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 99, “Materiality,” and SAB No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements,” the Company evaluated the adjustments detailed

10

above, and determined the related impact did not materially misstate its consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022.  Although the Company concluded that the misstatement was not material to its consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company has determined it was appropriate to adjust its consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2022 on a prospective basis to provide appropriate context to stakeholders within comparative financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023 due to the materiality to the quarterly financial statements. The impact on the statement of operations will be displayed on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2023. The following are the relevant line items from the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 which illustrate the effect of the adjustments to the periods presented:

3.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and E Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Unaudited interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

Principles of consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the financial statements of Moatable, Inc., its subsidiaries, its VIE and VIE’s subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions and balances are eliminated upon consolidation.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, allowance for doubtful accounts, the fair value of share-based compensation awards, the realization of deferred income tax assets, impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, and impairment of long-term investment.

Fair value

Fair value is the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.

11

Authoritative literature provides a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The level in the hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement as follows:

Level 1-inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets.

Level 2-inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3-inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques that include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash is the cash deposits pledged as security for the debt borrowings which are expected to be released in accordance with the debt agreement. The restriction will lapse when the related debt is paid off. The restricted cash represents cash deposited into bank accounts which is expected to be released within the next twelve months.

The cash deposits pledged as security were $9,159 and $7,101 as of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The restricted cash balances represent cash deposits pledged as security for debt borrowing of Kaixin and its subsidiary (“Kaixin Subsidiary”), under an irrevocable standby letter of credit (SBLC) issued by East West Bank (the “Bank”). Kaixin and its subsidiary have defaulted on both loans guaranteed by the Company under the SBLC.

On June 1, 2023, East West Bank assigned to the Company all rights, title, and interest in and to that certain $2.0 million loan made by the Bank to Kaixin (the “Kaixin USD Loan”) for a total consideration of approximately $2.0 million paid for from the Company’s Restricted Cash. The Kaixin USD Loan was guaranteed by the Letters of Credit. The Company is evaluating its options to pursue recovery from Kaixin after the assignment but considers any recovery remote.

In addition, as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, approximately $5,870 had been claimed under our standby letter of credit in connection with the Kaixin Subsidiary’s default of certain guaranteed loan. No payment has been made to the Bank in connection with such claim, but the Company expects to reimburse the Bank for the full amount of the claim and for the bank to make any restricted cash remaining, after full settlement of the claim, available to the company without restrictions.

On August 28, 2023, the Company entered into an Escrow Ageeement with U.S. Bank National Association to enhance directors and officers insurance coverage. The company set aside $5,000 restricted cash into an escrow account with U.S. Bank as required by the contractual agreement with U.S. Bank National Association.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at the original amount less an allowance for doubtful receivables. Accounts receivable are recognized in the period when the Company has provided services to its customers and when its right to consideration is unconditional. The Company evaluates its accounts receivable for expected credit losses on a regular basis. The Company maintains an estimated allowance for credit losses to reduce its accounts receivable to the amount that it believes will be collected. The Company considers factors in assessing the collectability of its receivables, such as the age of the amounts due, the customer’s payment history, credit-worthiness and other specific circumstances related to the accounts. The Company adjusts the allowance percentage periodically when there are significant differences between estimated bad debts and actual bad debts. If there is strong evidence indicating that the accounts receivable is likely to be unrecoverable, the Company also makes specific allowance in the period in which a loss is determined to be probable. Accounts receivable balances are written off after all collection efforts have been exhausted.

Adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13

On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 326): Measurement on Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, including certain subsequent amendments, transitional guidance and other interpretive guidance within ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, ASU 2019-11, ASU 2020-02 and ASU

12

2020-03 (collectively, including ASU 2016-13, “ASC 326”). ASC 326 requires entities to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost.

Short-term investments

Short-term investments, which are comprised of corporate bonds/notes and US treasuries, are accounted for in accordance with ASC 320, “Investments – Debt and Equity Securities” (“ASC 320”). The Company considers all of its securities for which there is a determinable fair market value, and there are no restrictions on the Company’s ability to sell within the next 12 months, as available for sale. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses reported as a component of shareholders’ equity. Available-for-sale securities as of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023 were $24,004, and $4,393, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the increase in fair value of available-for-sale securities was recognized in other comprehensive loss amounting to nil and nil, respectively; for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the change in fair value of available-for-sale securities was recognized in other comprehensive gain and loss amounting to $12 and $26, respectively.

Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when control of the good or service has been transferred to the customer, generally upon delivery to a customer. The contracts have a fixed contract price and revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. The Company collects taxes from customers on behalf of governmental authorities at the time of sale. These taxes are accounted for on a net basis and are not included in revenues and cost of revenues. The Company generally expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period is less than one year. These costs are recorded within selling and marketing expenses. The Company does not have any significant financing payment terms as payment is received at or shortly after the point of sale.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) prescribes a five-step model that includes: (1) identify the contract; (2) identify the performance obligations; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) performance obligations are satisfied.

The Company generated the majority of revenue from SaaS services.

SaaS revenue: SaaS revenue mainly includes the revenue generated from the subscription and advertising services provided by Lofty and Trucker Path. The Company recognizes revenue for subscription services over the life of the subscription. For Lofty’s advertising service, the Company acts as an agent to place advertisements on third-party websites or platforms. For Trucker Path’s advertising service, the Company acts as principal to place advertisements on Trucker Path’s platform. The Company recognizes revenue for advertising services over the advertising periods.

Other services: Other services mainly include revenue from the provision of back-office services to OPI and revenue from non-recurring sources.

The Company provides back-office services including accounting, legal, and business-related consulting services, which is a single performance obligation provided over the contract periods with pre-determined stand-alone selling price. The Company recognizes revenue over the contract periods.

Contract balances: Timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. Accounts receivable represent amounts invoiced and contract assets are recognized prior to invoicing when the Company has satisfied the Company’s performance obligation and has the unconditional right to payment. There were no contract assets recorded as of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023.

Deferred revenue mainly represents payments received from customers related to unsatisfied performance obligations for SaaS. The Company’s total deferred revenue was $4,323 and $4,305 as of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023, which is expected to be substantially recognized as revenue within one year. The amount of revenue recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023 that was previously included in the deferred revenue as of December 31, 2021 and 2022 was $2,368 and $3,922, respectively.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326)” (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 revises the methodology for measuring credit losses on financial instruments and the timing of when such losses are recorded. In November 2019, FASB issued ASU 2019-10, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842).” This ASU defers the effective date of ASU 2016-13 for public companies that are considered smaller reporting companies as defined by the SEC to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this standard beginning on January 1, 2023, and the adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2021-08”). This ASU requires acquiring entities to apply Topic 606 to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in a business combination. This guidance is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this standard beginning on January 1, 2023, and the adoption of ASU 2021-08 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial.

Recently issued ASUs by the FASB, except for the ones mentioned above, have no material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position.

The Company held 98.04% equity interest as limited partner as of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023 and recognized its share of income of $43 and $132 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, and share of loss and income $25 and $391 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, respectively.
(ii)In May 2014, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase limited partnership interest of Beijing Fenghou Tianyuan Investment and Management Center L.P. for a total consideration of $1,380 (RMB10 million).

(iii)From June 30, 2022, the Company’s equity interest in Kaixin Auto Holdings (“Kaixin”) decreased to 16.6% and the resignation of the Company’s representative from Kaixin’s Board of Directors, which combined resulted in a lack of significant influence in Kaixin. Thus, from June 30, 2022, the investment in Kaixin should be accounted for as equity investment with readily determinable fair value, a change in accounting the equity method. For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, the Company recognized a $8,191 and $6,510 unrealized loss as a change of fair value to the investment of Kaixin, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, the Company recognized a $5,172 unrealized income and a $5,989 unrealized loss as a change of fair value to the investment of Kaixin, which was booked in gain (loss) from fair value change of a long-term investment on the condensed consolidated statements of operations, respectively. Prior to the change in the accounting method, the Company recognized its share loss of $11,595 from Kaixin under equity method for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Exercise of share options and restricted shares vesting

During the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, nil and 4,258,155 Class A ordinary shares were issued due to the exercise of share options or vesting of restricted share units under share-based compensation; and during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, 16,799,985 and 40,176,796 Class A ordinary shares were issued due to the exercise of share options or vesting of restricted share units under share-based compensation, respectively, among which the vesting of 21,267,315 restricted shares was suspended due to the Stipulation Settlement until January 13, 2023, but expensed according to the original vesting schedule. The catch-up vesting of all suspended shares was applied upon the completion of the settlement (See Note 7).

Stock Repurchase from public market

On November 7, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) authorized the repurchase of up to an aggregate of $10.0 million of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.001 per share, to be executed from time to time in open market transactions effected through a broker at prevailing market prices under ordinary principles of best execution within one year after commencement (the “Stock Repurchase Program”). The Stock Repurchase Program took effect on January 16, 2023. On October 13, 2023, the Board approved an extension and extra funding of the existing Stock Repurchase Program whereby the expiration date was extended to December 31, 2024 and the authorized repurchase amount was increased from $10.0 million to $15.0 million.

15

The Stock Repurchase Program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any amount of the Company’s ordinary shares, and may be modified, extended, suspended, or discontinued at any time. The timing and amount of repurchases will be determined by the Company’s management based on a variety of factors such as the market price of the Company’s ordinary shares, the Company’s corporate cash requirements, and overall market conditions. The Stock Repurchase Program is subject to applicable legal requirements, including federal and state securities laws and applicable NYSE rules.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company repurchased 1,221,451 ADSs, excluding the ADSs repurchased from Softbank, representing 54,965,295 Class A ordinary shares (each ADS is equivalent to 45 Ordinary Shares) for $1,953 on the open market, at a weighted average price of nil and $1.60 per ADS, respectively.

Stock Repurchase from SoftBank

On May 23, 2023, the Company entered into a share repurchase agreement (the “Share Repurchase Agreement”) with SoftBank Group Capital Limited (“SoftBank”), pursuant to which the Company repurchased Class A and Class B ordinary shares of 152,870,520, and 135,129,480, respectively, from SoftBank (“Share Repurchase”). The repurchase price was $1.1144 per ADS, and the aggregate purchase price was $7,132. The purchase price per share was greater than the market price, which closed at $0.93 per share on the day of the share repurchase. The Company used cash on hand for the Share Repurchase and retired the ordinary shares purchased.

Prior to the Share Repurchase, no person owns more than 50% of the Company’s outstanding shares or voting power. A change in control of the Company occurred by virtue of the consummation of the Share Repurchase, with Mr. Joseph Chen (“Mr. Chen”), the Company’s founder, chairman of board of directors and chief executive officer, becoming the Company’s largest and controlling shareholder. Immediately after giving effect to the Share Repurchase, Mr. Chen holds 156,204,091 Class A ordinary shares and 170,258,970 Class B ordinary shares, representing 38.8% of total outstanding shares and 78.3% of total voting power of the Company.

Additionally, immediately after giving effect to the Share Repurchase, SoftBank holds 117,388,451 Class A ordinary shares of the Company, which is less than the Softbank Base Holding as defined in the Company’s currently effective Memorandum and Articles of Association. As a result, SoftBank is no longer entitled to the special rights set forth in the Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association, including (i) the right to designate one director and (ii) approval rights with respect to certain matters such as a change-of-control event, election of directors at annual general meetings, new issuances of ordinary shares, and major acquisitions or disposals of assets.

In the Share Repurchase transaction, the Company initiated the transaction and thus paid a price greater than the market price at the transaction date without acquiring other rights or privileges, or entering other agreements. Therefore, the excess of $6,844 over ordinary shares’ par value was charged entirely to retained earnings.

There was no repurchase activity under the Stock Repurchase Program for the three months ended September 30, 2023.

(i)On October 7, 2021, the Company entered into a Stipulation of Settlement (the “Stipulation”) as a nominal defendant with respect to the consolidated shareholder derivative lawsuits. Pursuant to the Stipulation, the Company shall set the record date for determining holders of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares and American Depositary Shares who are entitled to receive distributions from the settlement (the “Record Date”) on the earliest practicable date after the Stipulation and the settlement of the action is approved by the court and such approval has become final. On December 10, 2021, the court issued a written order formally denying the motion to approve the Stipulation and settlement (the “Order”), which prevented the Company from setting the Record Date as originally contemplated under the Stipulation and, consequently, may cause a material increase in the amount of the settlement. In order to mitigate the Order’s impact on the settlement, including the amount of the settlement, and pursuant to the Board’s general administrative authority under the share incentive plans, the Board deems it to be in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders as a whole to suspend vesting of the equity awards, including share options and restricted shares under share incentive plans, from January 1, 2022, through and until the completion of the settlement (the “Vesting Suspension”) The Vesting Suspension had been lifted on January 13, 2023. During suspended vesting, the Company continued to record expenses for all granted shares consistent with the vesting schedules.

The Company recorded compensation expenses based on the fair value of nonvested restricted shares on the grant dates over the requisite service period of award using the straight-line vesting attribution method. The fair value of the nonvested restricted shares on the grant

date was the closing market price of the ordinary shares as of the date. The Company recorded compensation expenses related to nonvested restricted shares of $792 and $692 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, and $2,676 and $1,933 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, respectively.

Total unrecognized compensation expense amounting to $2,832 related to nonvested restricted shares granted as of September 30, 2023. The expense is expected to be recognized in continuing operations over a weighted-average period of 0.61 years.

The Company provides SaaS platforms to customers primarily located in the United States. The Company’s conducts its operations in two reportable segments: Lofty, and Trucker Path. The Company defines its segments as those operations whose results the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) regularly reviews to analyze performance and allocate resources. The Company provides similar platform services in each of its segments.  It is impractical to segregate and identify revenues, beyond what the Company has disclosed herein, for each of these individual products and services.

The Lofty segment includes the Company’s all-in-one real estate sales acceleration, client lifecycle management platform and other nascent property management services. The Trucker Path segment includes the Company’s driver-centric online transportation management platform. The Other Operations segment consists of other items not allocated to any of the Company’s segments.

The Company measures the results of its segments using, among other measures, each segment’s revenue and cost of revenues. Information for the Company’s segments, as well as for Other Operations, is provided in the following table:

The majority of the Company’s revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023 was generated from the United States.

As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023, substantially all of the long-lived assets of the Company were located in the US. As of September 30, 2023, the long-lived assets in the carrying value of $718, $65 and $8,464 of the Company were located in the PRC, Philippines and United States, respectively.

As of December 31, 2022, the long-lived assets in the carrying value of $108, $231 and $8,202 of the Company were located in the PRC, Philippines and United States, respectively.

10.   STATUTORY RESERVE AND RESTRICTED NET ASSETS

In accordance with the Regulations on Enterprises with Foreign Investment of China and their articles of association, the Company’s subsidiaries and VIE entities located in the PRC, being foreign invested enterprises established in the PRC, are required to provide for certain statutory reserves. These statutory reserve funds include one or more of the following: (i) a general reserve, (ii) an enterprise expansion fund or discretionary reserve fund, and (iii) a staff bonus and welfare fund. Subject to certain cumulative limits, the general reserve fund requires a minimum annual appropriation of 10% of after-tax profit (as determined under accounting principles generally accepted in China at each year-end); the other fund appropriations are at the subsidiaries’ or the affiliated PRC entities’ discretion. These statutory reserve funds can only be used for specific purposes of enterprise expansion, staff bonus and welfare, and are not distributable as cash dividends except in the event of liquidation of the Company’s subsidiaries, the Company’s affiliated PRC entities and their respective subsidiaries. The Company’s subsidiaries and VIE entities are required to allocate at least 10% of their after-tax profits to the general reserve until such reserve has reached 50% of their respective registered capital. As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023, none of the Company’s PRC subsidiaries and VIE entities had a general reserve that reached the 50% of their registered capital threshold, therefore they will continue to allocate at least 10% of their after-tax profits to the general reserve fund.

Appropriations to the enterprise expansion reserve and the staff welfare and bonus reserve are to be made at the discretion of the board of directors of each of the Company’s subsidiaries. The appropriation to these reserves by the Company’s PRC subsidiaries was nil for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023.

As a result of these PRC laws and regulations and the requirement that distributions by PRC entities can only be paid out of distributable profits computed in accordance with PRC GAAP, the PRC entities are restricted from transferring a portion of their net assets to the Company. Amounts restricted include paid-in capital and the statutory reserves of the Company’s PRC subsidiaries and VIE entities. The aggregate amounts of capital and statutory reserves restricted which represented the amount of net assets of the relevant subsidiaries and VIE entities in the Company not available for distribution were $251,309 and $240,608 as of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023, respectively.

11.   INCOME TAXES

Utilization of the federal and state net operating losses may be subject to certain annual limitations under IRC Section 382 due to the “change in ownership” provisions. The annual limitation may result in the expiration of net operating losses and credits before utilization. The Company has a full valuation allowance against U.S. federal and state net operating losses.

12.   SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company has evaluated all events or transactions that occurred after September 30, 2023 and determined that it does not have any subsequent event requiring recording or disclosure in the financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2023.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Please read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with “Note About Forward-Looking Statements” and our consolidated financial statements and related notes included under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as well as our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, including Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors.”

Operating Results

Overview

Our business model has evolved continuously since our initial public offering in May 2011. At the time of our initial public offering, we were primarily a social networking service platform, and we had a number of ancillary businesses intended to monetize that platform. We gradually disposed of the social networking service platform and most of those ancillary businesses in the years that followed our initial public offering.

Currently, we operate two SaaS businesses, Lofty and Trucker Path (the “SaaS businesses”), both of which are considered reportable segments. Lofty offers an all-in-one real estate sales acceleration and client lifecycle management platform that allows real estate professionals to obtain and nurture leads, close transactions, and retain their clients. Trucker Path is a driver-centric online transportation management platform whose mission is to make freight transportation fast, reliable, and efficient. Trucker Path provides trip planning, navigation, freight sourcing, a marketplace that offers goods and services truckers use to operate their businesses, and connects qualified brokers and carriers to expand their reach and initiate and complete transactions easily and efficiently. The majority of our revenues are generated by our SaaS businesses. Our SaaS businesses generate nearly 100% of their revenue from the U.S. market.

Our total revenues increased from US$12.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 to US$13.3 million for the same period in 2023, and net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was US$52.5 million and US$7.0 million for the same period in 2023. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, our total revenues increased from US$33.3 million to US$38.3 million in the same period in 2023, and net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was US$57.7 million and US$10.4 million for the same period in 2023. Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was driven primarily by a loss from the change in fair value of long-term investments of US$6.5 million. Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was driven by a loss from the change in fair value of long-term investments of US$6.0 million and loss from operations.

Loss from operations improved from US$2.9 million to US$0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, respectively, and US$11.4 million to US$7.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023.

Financial Overview

Revenue

We derive substantially all of our revenues from the SaaS businesses through SaaS subscription services, advertising services, and other related services. We recognize our revenues over the life of the SaaS subscriptions and net of business taxes or value added tax, as applicable. The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. Deferred revenue mainly consists of payments received from customers related to unsatisfied performance obligations for SaaS subscription services and advertising services. Our total deferred revenue was US$4.3 million and US$4.3 million as of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023, respectively, most of which is expected to be recognized as revenue within one year.

SaaS Revenue

Our subscription revenues are derived primarily from platform services provided by Lofty and Trucker Path. Our revenues from advertising services are derived primarily from lead generation and print advertising services provided by Lofty and point-of-interest and banner advertising services provided by Trucker Path. Our other SaaS revenue consists primarily of dispatching and fuel program revenue from the Trucker Path segment and revenues from non-recurring equipment sales recorded in the first quarter of 2022 and other nascent property management services from the Lofty segment.

Other Services

Our revenues from other services consist primarily of back-office services provided to Oak Pacific Investments.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues consists primarily of App and Play Store fees, cloud hosting services, merchant fees, and print services. The cost of revenues was US$2.7 million and US$2.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, respectively; and US$7.7 million and US$8.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, respectively.

Our business has evolved rapidly in recent years. We believe that historical period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations may not be indicative of future performance.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 Compared with Three Months Ended September 30, 2022

Revenues

Our revenues increased by 10.8% from US$12.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 to US$13.3 million for the same period in 2023. This increase was primarily due to the increase in revenue from our SaaS businesses.

Subscription Services. Our revenue from subscription services increased by 15.6% from US$10.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 to US$12.3 million for the same period in 2023. The increase was primarily due to the expansion of our SaaS businesses. The Company’s paying subscriptions as of September 30, 2023 for Lofty and Trucker Path increased to 3,700 and 99,200, by 5.7% and 19.2%, compared to September 30, 2022 paying subscriptions of 3,500 and 83,200, respectively. Purchased seats for Lofty, defined as eligible users on a paid subscription, increased to 50,000 as of September 30, 2023 from 40,000 as of September 30, 2022, an increase of 25%.

25

Advertising Services. Our revenue from advertising services decreased by 30.0% from US$1,218 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022 to US$853 thousand for the same period in 2023.

Cost of revenues

Our cost of revenues increased by 4.5% from US$2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 to US$2.8 million for the same period in 2023. This increase was primarily due to the increase of software expenses directly related to the generation of revenue and cloud hosting services to provide a better user experience and grow the SaaS businesses.

Gross Margins

Our gross margin increased 1.2% from 77.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 to 78.8%. The increase was primarily due to the subscription increase of Trucker Path.

Operating expenses

Our operating expenses decreased by 7.6% from US$12.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 to US$11.3 million for the same period in 2023, primarily due cost reduction initiatives.

Selling and marketing expenses. Our selling and marketing expenses decreased by 9.2% from US$4.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 to US$4.4 million for the same period in 2023. This decrease was primarily due to lower compensation and commissions due to decreased headcount.
Research and development expenses. Our research and development expenses decreased slightly by 0.2% from US$4,274  thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022 to US$4,267 thousand for the same period in 2023. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in our research and development headcount for new projects offset by service fee paid to outside contractors.
General and administrative expenses. Our general and administrative expenses decreased by 15.3% from US$3.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 to US$2.6 million for the same period in 2023. The decrease was primarily due to lower compensation costs on lower headcount.

Loss from fair value change of a long-term investment

Our loss from fair value change of a long-term investment was US$6.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared with loss of US$8.2 million for the same period in 2022. The loss from fair value change of a long-term investment represents the unrealized loss from Kaixin, which is accounted for as an equity investment with readily determinable fair value.

Nine months ended September 30, 2023 Compared with Nine months ended September 30, 2022

Revenues

Our revenues increased by 15.0% from US$33.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to US$38.3 million for the same period in 2023. This increase was primarily due to the increase in revenue from our SaaS businesses.

Subscription Services. Our revenue from subscription services increased by 19.9% from US$29.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to US$35.5 million for the same period in 2023. The increase was primarily due to the expansion of our SaaS businesses. The Company’s paying subscriptions as of September 30, 2023 for Lofty and Trucker Path increased to 3,700 and 94,600, by 5.7% and 13.7%, compared to September 30, 2022 paying subscriptions of 3,500 and 83,200, respectively. Purchased seats for Lofty, defined as eligible users on a paid subscription, increased to 50,000 as of September 30, 2023 from 40,000 as of September 30, 2022, an increase of 25%.
Advertising Services. Our revenue from advertising services decreased by 16.4% from US$2.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to US$2.5 million for the same period in 2023.

26

Cost of revenues

Our cost of revenues increased by 6.6% from US$7.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to US$8.2 million for the same period in 2023. This increase was primarily due to the increase of software expenses directly related to the generation of revenue and cloud hosting services to provide a better user experience and grow the SaaS businesses.

Gross Margins

Our gross margin increased 1.7% from 77.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to 78.7%. The increase was primarily due to the subscription increase of Trucker Path.

Operating expenses

Our operating expenses increased by 0.3% from US$37.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to US$37.2 million for the same period in 2023, primarily due to an increase in research and development expenses partially offset by a decrease in general and administrative expenses.

Selling and marketing expenses. Our selling and marketing expenses decreased by 3.7% from US$14.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to US$13.9 million for the same period in 2023. This decrease was primarily due to lower compensation and commissions due to decreased headcount.
Research and development expenses. Our research and development expenses increased by 17.7% from US$12.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to US$14.1 million for the same period in 2023. This increase was primarily due to an increase in our research and development for new project development.
General and administrative expenses. Our general and administrative expenses decreased by 13.7% from US$10.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to US$9.2 million for the same period in 2023. The decrease was due primarily to lower share-based compensation expense.

Other income, net

We had other income of US$1.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, which primarily consisted of US$1.3 million release of tax liabilities in 2023, compared with other income of US$1.4 million for the same period in 2022, which was primarily due to US$1.4 million loan forgiveness in 2022.

Gain (loss) from fair value change of a long-term investment

Our loss from fair value change of a long-term investment was US$6.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared with gain from fair value change of a long-term investment of US$5.2 million for the same period in 2022. The gain (loss) from fair value change of a long-term investment represents the unrealized gain (loss) from Kaixin, which is accounted for as an equity investment with readily determinable fair value.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023, we had working capital (current assets less current liabilities) of US$31.9 million and US$20.7 million, respectively.

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to generate cash flows from operations, and to make adequate financing arrangements. We had cash and cash equivalents of US$45.5 million, including $9.2 millions proceeds from a related party, excluding short-term investments of US$4.4 million as of September 30, 2023. The cash reserve is expected to meet our operating needs and other requirements and plans for cash for at least the next twelve months from the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. However, if negative cash flow from operating activities persists in the long run, our cash resources may become insufficient to satisfy on-going cash requirements. Cash and short-term investments are held at multiple financial institutions. We have diversified our holding banks to reduce the impact of bank failures, such as Silicon Valley Bank ("SVB"), on our uninsured deposits and to facilitate international operations.

Our material cash uses included investments in short-term government and agency securities, share repurchase, investment in adding product features and growing our enterprise presence in Lofty, Lofty’s entry into property management SaaS services, and in research and development to add features to Trucker Path to allow us to extend the services offered to drivers and to serve the needs of other industry participants including brokers, fleets, and dispatchers. We issued a standby letter of credit to the benefit of East West Bank that guarantees Kaixin's and its subsidiary’s payment of approximately US$7.1 million to East West Bank, which is an uncollateralized guarantee carried over from our deconsolidation of Kaixin and fully reserved. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, approximately $5.87 million had been claimed under our standby letter of credit in connection with a Kaixin subsidiary's default of certain guaranteed loan. The Company believes the other Kaixin loans guaranteed by the standby letter of credit will go default in the foreseeable future, and we may purchase the defaulted loans and the accompanying rights of recourse from East West Bank or, if we choose not to purchase the defaulted loans, East West Bank may seize our cash deposits pledged as security under the standby letter of credit, which amounted to US$7.1 million as of September 30, 2023, and/or demand reimbursement from us. The following table sets forth a summary of our cash flows for the periods indicated:

Net cash used in operating activities was US$4.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to US$2.2 million for the same period in 2022. The principal adjustments to reconcile our net loss to our net cash used in operating activities were impairment on long-term investment without readily determinable fair values, loss (income) in equity method investments, release of tax liabilities and gain on debt forgiveness, fair value change on long-term investment and share-based compensation expense. The principal change in operating assets and liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was a decrease in PRC business tax liability and an increase in Trucker Path subscriptions receivable.

Net cash provided by investing activities was US$18.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to net cash used in investing activities of US$7.4 million for the same period in 2022. Net cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily due to US$19.6 million from redemption of short-term investment, offset by $0.9 million to for the purchases of property and refurbishment construction on the headquarters office. Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was for the purchase of our new corporate headquarters, intangible assets and subsidiaries, partially offset by the redemption of short-term investments.

Net cash provided by financing activities was US$2.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to net cash used in financing activities of US$0.07 million for the same period in 2022. Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily due to settlement of the shareholder derivative lawsuit for which we received a one-time dividend of US$2.6 million for shares held in 2023 and proceeds of US$9.2 million from OPI, partly offset by the repurchase of US$9.1 million ordinary shares. Net cash used in financing activities was US$0.07 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily due to the borrowing repayment of US$0.26 million, partly offset by the proceeds from exercise of share options and restricted shares of US$0.19 million.

Our capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 were primarily used for purchase of our corporate headquarters in Phoenix. Capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were primarily used to for the refurbishment construction of the headquarters office.

29

Research and Development, Patents, and Licenses, etc.

Research and Development

Our research and development efforts focus on developing and improving the scalability, features, and functionality of our SaaS services, including the compilation and use of data to increase automation of our services and enhance the customer experience. We have a large team of approximately 280 engineers and developers as of September 30, 2023, accounting for approximately 56% of our employees. Most of our engineers and developers are based at our subsidiary’s office in Beijing, China. We also have engineers in the Philippines and Eastern Europe.

Our research and development personnel support all areas of our business, mainly focusing on the improvement and enhancement of our SaaS businesses, Lofty and Trucker Path. Our research and development personnel also focus on enhancing the user experience through commonly used user interfaces, including mobile apps, and ensuring our products are fully compatible with the latest mobile operating systems such as iOS, Android, and Windows. In 2023, with the acquisition of Rentancy by Lofty, we expect to increasingly invest in developing Lofty products to serve property managers and landlords. We periodically shift the priorities of our research and development personnel to ensure we continually develop new products and services to extend our customer reach and meet the needs of our user base.

Our research and development expenses primarily include salaries and benefits for our research and development personnel. We incurred US$12.0 million and US$14.1 million of research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, respectively.

Intellectual Property

Our intellectual property includes trademarks and trademark applications related to our brands and services, copyrights in software, trade secrets, patent applications and other intellectual property rights and licenses. We seek to protect our intellectual property assets and brand through a combination of monitoring and enforcement of trademark, patent, copyright and trade secret protection laws in the US, PRC, and other jurisdictions, as well as through confidentiality agreements and procedures.

We have been granted 1 patent. In addition, we maintain 32 copyright registrations, all of which are computer software copyright registrations as of September 30, 2023. Our employees sign confidentiality and non-compete agreements when hired.

Trend Information

Other than as disclosed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we are not aware of any trends, uncertainties, demands, commitments or events for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our revenues, income, profitability, liquidity or capital resources, or that would cause the disclosed financial information to be not necessarily indicative of future operating results or financial conditions.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in by the SEC's rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and interim chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, due to the two material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as described below.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, for our company. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of a company’s assets, (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that a company’s receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of a company’s management and directors, and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of a company’s assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. Due to its inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to consolidated financial statement preparation and presentation and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.

As required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and related rules as promulgated by the SEC, our management assessed the effectiveness of our company’s internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2023, using criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. During the year ended December 31, 2022, our management identified two material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which remain unremediated as of September 30, 2023, as follows:

Lack of an integrated and systematic risk assessment and reporting process to identify and assess the financial reporting risks and to ensure significant transactions including investments and non-routine transactions are accurately recorded and properly disclosed; and
Lack of evaluations to ascertain whether the components of internal control are present and functioning.

As a result of these material weaknesses and based on the evaluation described above, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of September 30, 2023. Notwithstanding these material weaknesses, however, our management has concluded that the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP.

31

Management’s Remediation Plans and Actions

To remediate the material weaknesses described above in “Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting,” we are implementing the plan and measures described below. We will continue to evaluate our remediation progress and, may in the future, implement additional measures:

We have recruited personnel with the requisite knowledge in accounting and disclosure requirements for complex transactions under U.S. GAAP and statutory compliance. Where needed, we have engaged external parties with the expertise to evaluate and advise the company on complex or evolving areas such as public company filings, taxation, and valuation services.
We have designed a control environment which allows management to monitor the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting and address gaps identified within the environment.
We have implemented a consolidated general ledger within a single enterprise resource planning application for all legal entities, which includes consolidation and statutory reporting capabilities.
We have recently designated new audit committee members with sufficient accounting and reporting experience and knowledge, and will design and implement risk assessment policies and procedures to identify and assess internal and external risks relating to financial reporting on a regular basis. The Board and Audit Committee will oversee implementation of such policies and procedures.
We will design and implement evaluation policies and procedures to ascertain internal control components are present and functioning.

We believe that we are taking the steps necessary for remediation of the material weaknesses identified above, and we will continue to monitor the effectiveness of these steps and to make any changes that our management deems appropriate.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Other than as described above, there were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 that have materially affected or are reasonable likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

Our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system cannot provide absolute assurance due to its inherent limitations; it is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. A control system also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of such limitations, disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting cannot prevent or detect all misstatements, whether unintentional errors or fraud. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process, therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

(E)

Loss of Status as Softbank Party; Decrease of Ownership in Holder of Softbank Class B Shares

If at any time a holder of Softbank Class B Shares ceases to be a Softbank Party, then all Softbank Class B Shares held by such holder shall automatically and immediately convert into the same number of Class A Ordinary Shares.

The number of Softbank Class B Shares that shall be converted into Class A Ordinary Shares pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be equal to the product of:

(1)

the total number of Softbank Class B Shares held by such holder; and

(2)

the difference between (a) Softbanks Percentage Ownership in such holder immediately prior to such decrease in Softbanks Percentage Ownership and (b) Softbanks Percentage Ownership in such holder immediately after such decrease in the Softbanks Percentage Ownership.

(b)

whether the shares of such series shall have voting rights, in addition to any voting rights provided by law, and, if so, the terms of such voting rights, which may be general or limited;

(c)

the dividends, if any, payable on such series, whether any such dividends shall be cumulative, and, if so, from what dates, the conditions and dates upon which such dividends shall be payable, the preference or relation which such dividends shall bear to the dividends payable on any shares of any other class or any other series of preferred shares;

(d)

whether the preferred shares of such series shall be subject to redemption by the Company, and, if so, the times, prices and other conditions of such redemption;

(e)

the amount or amounts payable upon preferred shares of such series upon, and the rights of the holders of such series in, a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or upon any distribution of the assets, of the Company;

(f)

whether the preferred shares of such series shall be subject to the operation of a retirement or sinking fund and, if so, the extent to and manner in which any such retirement or sinking fund shall be applied to the purchase or redemption of the preferred shares of such series for retirement or other corporate purposes and the terms and provisions relative to the operation thereof;

(g)

whether the preferred shares of such series shall be convertible into, or exchangeable for, shares of any other class or any other series of preferred shares or any other securities and, if so, the price or prices or the rate or rates of conversion or exchange and the method, if any, of adjusting the same, and any other terms and conditions of conversion or exchange;

14


(h)

the limitations and restrictions, if any, to be effective while any preferred shares of such series are outstanding upon the payment of dividends or the making of other distributions on, and upon the purchase, redemption or other acquisition by the Company of, the existing Shares or shares of any other class of shares or any other series of preferred shares;

Without limiting the foregoing and subject to Article 77, the voting powers of any series of preferred shares may include the right, in the circumstances specified in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issuance of such preferred shares, to elect one or more Directors who shall serve for such term and have such voting powers as shall be stated in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issuance of such preferred shares. The term of office and voting powers of any Director elected in the manner provided in the immediately preceding sentence of this Article 7A may be greater than or less than those of any other Director or class of Directors.

7B.

The powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights of each series of preferred shares, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, if any, may differ from those of any and all other series at any time outstanding. All shares of any one series of preferred shares shall be identical in all respects with all other shares of such series, except that shares of any one series issued at different times may differ as to the dates from which dividends thereon shall be cumulative.

REGISTER OF MEMBERS AND SHARE CERTIFICATES

8.

The Company shall maintain a Register of Members and a Member shall only be entitled to a share certificate if the Directors resolve that share certificates shall be issued. Share certificates (if any) shall specify the share or shares held by that person and the amount paid up thereon, provided that in respect of a share or shares held jointly by several persons the Company shall not be bound to issue more than one certificate, and delivery of a certificate for a share to one of several joint holders shall be sufficient delivery to all.

(b)

The Directors may also decline to register any transfer of any share unless:

(ii)

the shares to be transferred are free of any lien in favor of the Company; and

VARIATION OF RIGHTS ATTACHING TO SHARES

21.

If at any time the share capital is divided into different classes or series of shares, the rights attaching to any class or series (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class or series) may, subject to these Articles, be varied or abrogated with the consent in writing of the holders of a majority of the issued shares of that class or series or with the sanction of a Special Resolution passed at a general meeting of the holders of the shares of that class or series.

22.

The provisions of these Articles relating to general meetings shall apply to every such general meeting of the holders of one class or series of shares except the following:

(a)

separate general meetings of the holders of a class or series of shares may be called only by (i) the Chairman of the Board, or (ii) a majority of the entire Board of Directors (unless otherwise specifically provided by the terms of issue of the shares of such class or series).

18

The rights conferred upon the holders of the shares of any class or series issued with preferred or other rights shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class or series, be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further shares ranking in priority thereto or pari passu therewith.

COMMISSION ON SALE OF SHARES

24.

The Company may in so far as the Statutes from time to time permit make any payment of a commission to any person in consideration of his subscribing or agreeing to subscribe whether absolutely or conditionally for any shares of the Company. Such commissions may be satisfied by the payment of cash or the lodgement of fully or partly paid-up shares or partly in one way and partly in the other. The Company may also on any issue of shares pay such brokerage fees as may be lawful.

NON-RECOGNITION OF TRUSTS

25.

No person shall be recognised by the Company as holding any share upon any trust and the Company shall not be bound by or be compelled in any way to recognise (even when having notice thereof) any equitable, contingent, future, or partial interest in any share, or any interest in any fractional part of a share, or (except only as is otherwise provided by these Articles or the Statutes) any other rights in respect of any share except an absolute right to the entirety thereof vested in the registered holder.

LIEN ON SHARES

26.

The Company shall have a first and paramount lien and charge on all shares (whether fully paid-up or not) registered in the name of a Member (whether solely or jointly with others) for all debts, liabilities or engagements to or with the Company (whether presently payable or not) by such Member or his estate, either alone or jointly with any other person, whether a Member or not, but the Directors may at any time declare any share to be wholly or in part exempt from the provisions of this Article. The registration of a transfer of any such share shall operate as a waiver of the Companys lien (if any) thereon. The Companys lien (if any) on a share shall extend to all dividends or other monies payable in respect thereof.

27.

The Company may sell, in such manner as the Directors think fit, any shares on which the Company has a lien, but no sale shall be made unless some sum in respect of which the lien exists is presently payable nor until the expiration of 14 calendar days after a notice in writing, stating and demanding payment of such part of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is presently payable, has been given to the registered holder for the time being of the share, or the persons entitled thereto by reason of his death or bankruptcy.

28.

For giving effect to any such sale the Directors may authorise some person to transfer the shares sold to the purchaser thereof. The purchaser shall be registered as the holder of the shares comprised in any such transfer and he shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, nor shall his title to the shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the sale.

19


29.

The proceeds of the sale shall be received by the Company and applied in payment of such part of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is presently payable, and the residue shall (subject to a like lien for sums not presently payable as existed upon the shares prior to the sale) be paid to the person entitled to the shares at the date of the sale.

CALLS ON SHARES

30.

Subject to the terms of allotment, the Directors may from time to time make calls upon the Members in respect of any money unpaid on their shares, and each Member shall (subject to receiving at least 14 calendar days notice specifying the time or times of payment) pay to the Company at the time or times so specified the amount called on his shares. A call shall be deemed to have been made at the time when the resolution of the Directors authorising such call was passed.

31.

The joint holders of a share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay calls in respect thereof.

32.

If a sum called in respect of a share is not paid before or on the day appointed for payment thereof, the person from whom the sum is due shall pay interest upon the sum at the rate of eight percent per annum from the day appointed for the payment thereof to the time of the actual payment, but the Directors shall be at liberty to waive payment of that interest wholly or in part.

33.

The provisions of these Articles as to the liability of joint holders and as to payment of interest shall apply in the case of non-payment of any sum which, by the terms of issue of a share, becomes payable at a fixed time, whether on account of the amount of the share, or by way of premium, as if the same had become payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.

34.

The Directors may make arrangements on the issue of shares for a difference between the Members, or the particular shares, in the amount of calls to be paid and in the times of payment.

35.

The Directors may, if they think fit, receive from any Member willing to advance the same all or any part of the moneys uncalled and unpaid upon any shares held by him, and upon all or any of the moneys so advanced may (until the same would, but for such advance, become presently payable) pay interest at such rate (not exceeding without the sanction of an Ordinary Resolution, eight percent per annum) as may be agreed upon between the Member paying the sum in advance and the Directors. No such sum paid in advance of calls shall entitle the Member paying such sum to any portion of a dividend declared in respect of any period prior to the date upon which such sum would, but for such payment, become presently payable.

FORFEITURE OF SHARES

36.

If a Member fails to pay any call or instalment of a call on the day appointed for payment thereof, the Directors may, at any time thereafter during such time as any part of such call or instalment remains unpaid, serve a notice on him requiring payment of such much of the call or instalment as is unpaid, together with any interest which may have accrued.

20


37.

The notice shall name a further day (not earlier than the expiration of 14 calendar days from the date of the notice) on or before which the payment required by the notice is to be made, and shall state that in the event of non-payment at or before the time appointed the shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited.

38.

If the requirements of any such notice as aforesaid are not complied with, any share in respect of which the notice has been given may at any time thereafter, before the payment required by notice has been made, be forfeited by a resolution of the Directors to that effect.

39.

A forfeited share may be sold or otherwise disposed of on such terms and in such manner as the Directors think fit, and at any time before a sale or disposition the forfeiture may be cancelled on such terms as the Directors think fit.

40.

A person whose shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a Member in respect of the forfeited shares, but shall, notwithstanding, remain liable to pay to the Company all monies which at the date of forfeiture were payable by him to the Company in respect of the shares, but his liability shall cease if and when the Company receives payment in full of the fully paid up amount of the shares.

41.

A certificate in writing under the hand of a Director of the Company, which certifies that a share has been forfeited on a date stated in the certificate, shall be conclusive evidence of the facts therein stated as against all persons claiming to be entitled to the share. The Company may receive the consideration, if any, given for the share or any sale or disposition thereof and may execute a transfer of the share in favour of the person to whom the share is sold or disposed of and he shall thereupon be registered as the holder of the share, and shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, if any, nor shall his title to the share be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the forfeiture, sale or disposal of the share.

42.

The provisions of these Articles as to forfeiture shall apply in the case of non-payment of any sum which by the terms of issue of a share becomes due and payable, whether on account of the amount of the share, or by way of premium, as if the same had been payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.

REGISTRATION OF EMPOWERING INSTRUMENTS

43.

The Company shall be entitled to charge a fee not exceeding one dollar (US$1.00) on the registration of every letter of probate, letter of administration, certificate of death or marriage, power of attorney, notice in lieu of distringas, or any other instrument.

TRANSMISSION OF SHARES

44.

The legal personal representative of a deceased sole holder of a share shall be the only person recognised by the Company as having any title to the share. In the case of a share registered in the name of two or more holders, the survivors or survivor, or the legal personal representatives of the deceased survivor, shall be the only person recognised by the Company as having any title to the share.

21


45.

Any person becoming entitled to a share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of a Member shall upon such evidence being produced as may from time to time be properly required by the Directors, have the right either to be registered as a Member in respect of the share or, instead of being registered himself, to make such transfer of the share as the deceased or bankrupt person could have made. If the person so becoming entitled shall elect to be registered himself as holder he shall deliver or send to the Company a notice in writing signed by him stating that he so elects.

46.

A person becoming entitled to a share by reason of the death or bankruptcy or winding-up of the holder shall be entitled to the same dividends and other advantages to which he would be entitled if he were the registered holder of the share, except that he shall not, before being registered as a Member in respect of the share, be entitled in respect of it to exercise any right conferred by membership in relation to meetings of the Company, provided however, that the Directors may at any time give notice requiring any such person to elect either to be registered himself or to transfer the share, and if the notice is not complied with within 90 calendar days, the Directors may thereafter withhold payment of all dividends, bonuses or other monies payable in respect of the share until the requirements of the notice have been complied with.

ALTERATION OF CAPITAL

47.

The Company may by Ordinary Resolution:

(a)

increase its share capital by such sum, to be divided into shares of such classes and amount, as the resolution shall prescribe;

(b)

consolidate and divide all or any of its share capital into shares of larger par value than its existing shares;

(c)

sub-divide its existing shares or any of them into shares of a smaller par value than is fixed by the Company’s Memorandum of Association (subject, nevertheless, to the Law) provided that in the subdivision the proportion between the amount paid and the amount, if any, unpaid on each reduced share shall be the same as it was in case of the share from which the reduced share is derived; and

(d)

cancel any shares which, at the date of the passing of the resolution, have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person and diminish the amount of its share capital by the amount of the shares so cancelled.

48.

Subject to the provisions of the Statutes and these Articles as regards to the matters to be dealt with by Ordinary Resolution, the Company may by Special Resolution reduce its share capital and any capital redemption reserve in any manner authorised by law.

49.

All new shares created hereunder shall be subject to the same provisions with reference to the payment of calls, liens, transfer, transmission, forfeiture and otherwise as the shares in the original share capital.

22

For the purpose of determining those Members that are entitled to receive notice of, attend or vote at any meeting of Members or any adjournment thereof, or those Members that are entitled to receive payment of any dividend, or in order to make a determination as to who is a Member for any other purpose, the Directors may provide that the Register of Members shall be closed for transfers for a stated period but not to exceed in any case 30 calendar days. If the Register of Members shall be so closed for the purpose of determining those Members that are entitled to receive notice of, attend or vote at a meeting of Members such register shall be so closed for at least 10 calendar days immediately preceding such meeting and the record date for such determination shall be the date of the closure of the Register of Members.

52.

If the Register of Members is not so closed and no record date is fixed for the determination of those Members entitled to receive notice of, attend or vote at a meeting of Members or those Members that are entitled to receive payment of a dividend, the date on which notice of the meeting is posted or the date on which the resolution of the Directors declaring such dividend is adopted, as the case may be, shall be the record date for such determination of Members. When a determination of those Members that are entitled to receive notice of, attend or vote at a meeting of Members has been made as provided in this section, such determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof.

53.

All general meetings of the Company other than annual general meetings shall be called extraordinary general meetings.

(d)

A general meeting convened as aforesaid by requisitionists shall be convened in the same manner as nearly as possible as that in which general meetings are to be convened by Directors.

56.

At least seven calendar days’ notice shall be given for any general meeting.

58.

If determined by the Board of Directors and specified in the notice of a general meeting, a person may participate in a general meeting by conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all the persons participating in the meeting can communicate with each other.

64.

If a poll is duly demanded it shall be taken in such manner as the chairman directs, and the result of the poll shall be deemed to be the resolution of the meeting at which the poll was demanded. The demand for a poll may be withdrawn.

A general notice given to the Directors by any Director to the effect that he is a member of any specified company or firm and is to be regarded as interested in any contract which may thereafter be made with that company or firm shall be deemed a sufficient declaration of interest in regard to any contract so made.

(c)

all resolutions and proceedings at all meetings of the Company, and of the Directors and of committees of Directors.

32


106.

When the chairman of a meeting of the Directors signs the minutes of such meeting the same shall be deemed to have been duly held notwithstanding that all the Directors have not actually come together or that there may have been a technical defect in the proceedings.

107.

A resolution signed by all the Directors shall be as valid and effectual as if it had been passed at a meeting of the Directors duly called and constituted and when signed, a resolution may consist of several documents each signed by one or more of the Directors.

Any committee so formed shall, in the exercise of the powers, authorities and discretions so delegated, conform to any regulations which may be imposed on it by the Board. A committee appointed by the Directors may elect a chairman of its meetings. If no such chairman is elected, or if at any meeting the chairman is not present within five minutes after the time appointed for holding the same, the members present may choose one of their number to be chairman of the meeting.

110.

A committee appointed by the Directors may meet and adjourn as it thinks proper. Questions arising at any meeting shall be determined by a majority of votes of the committee members present and in case of an equality of votes the chairman shall have a second or casting vote.

111.

All acts done by any meeting of the Directors or of a committee of Directors, or by any person acting as a Director, shall notwithstanding that it be afterwards discovered that there was some defect in the appointment of any such Director or person acting as aforesaid, or that they or any of them were disqualified, be as valid as if every such person had been duly appointed and was qualified to be a Director.

116.

Any dividend may be paid by cheque or wire transfer to the registered address of the Member or person entitled thereto, or in the case of joint holders, to any one of such joint holders at his registered address or to such person and such address as the Member or person entitled, or such joint holders as the case may be, may direct.

117.

The Directors when paying dividends to the Members in accordance with the foregoing provisions may make such payment either in cash or in specie.

118.

Dividends may be declared and paid out of profits of the Company, realised or unrealised, or from any reserve set aside from profits which the Directors determine is no longer needed.

119.

Subject to the rights of persons, if any, entitled to shares with special rights as to dividends, all dividends shall be declared and paid according to the amounts paid or credited as fully paid on the shares, but if and so long as nothing is paid up on any of the shares in the Company dividends may be declared and paid according to the amounts of the shares. No amount paid on a share in advance of calls shall, while carrying interest, be treated for the purposes of this Article as paid on the share.

120.

121.

No dividend shall bear interest against the Company.

124.

The Directors shall from time to time determine whether and to what extent and at what times and places and under what conditions or regulations the accounts and books of the Company or any of them shall be open to the inspection of Members not being Directors, and no Member (not being a Director) shall have any right of inspecting any account or book or document of the Company except as conferred by law or authorised by the Directors or by the Company by Ordinary Resolution.

125.

CLIENT SERVICES AGREEMENT

(CONTRACT HYBRID)

#525005

This Client Services Agreement (“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of October 23, 2023 (“Effective Date”) by and between Moatable ( formerly Renren US Holdco, Inc.) and any affiliates of Moatable ( formerly Renren US Holdco, Inc.) for whom Vaco LLC provides services under this Agreement (collectively, “Client”) and Vaco LLC (“Vaco”) and its affiliate organizations. Client and Vaco are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Parties” and individually as a “Party.”

WHEREAS, Client wishes to engage and contract Vaco to provide the consulting services and/or recruiting services described herein in accordance with the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement and included addendum(s), which addendums are incorporated by reference into this Agreement;

NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby mutually acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree to the terms set forth below.

Consulting Services

1.Services:

(a)

Upon request, Vaco will provide consulting services, under the supervision and direction of Client, on a project basis according to Client needs. Specific work performed by project will be included as an addendum(s) to this Agreement, which, unless otherwise provided herein, shall include the specific fee for the services provided. The Parties may subsequently agree to add projects and/or work through addendum(s), without the necessity of entering into a new Agreement. The terms of this Agreement will control any such projects and/or work, unless and to the extent the Parties agree otherwise in a writing signed by both Parties.

(b)

A professional provided by Vaco to Client to perform services for Client pursuant to this Agreement is a “Consultant”. Any work product of Consultant provided by Vaco resulting from the services performed pursuant to this Agreement shall be “work-for-hire” and shall belong to the Client. The Consultant shall not be deemed an employee of Client and shall not be entitled to benefits or privileges of Client’s employees. Vaco acknowledges it is solely responsible for compensating the Consultant or Consultant’s employer for the services he/she performs and will withhold such federal, state, and local taxes and unemployment insurance as required by law. Client agrees to pay Vaco for such services at the rate(s) specified in addendum(s) to this Agreement. Client agrees to approve and sign Consultant weekly time records (when required) by noon local time the Monday following the week worked. Approval of weekly time records will constitute Client’s full acceptance of the services. Failure to sign or notify Vaco in writing of a deficiency within this timeframe will constitute Client’s approval of these services.

(c)

Invoicing will be weekly and payment is due to Vaco within thirty (30) days of invoicing. Any late invoicing by Vaco shall not affect Client’s obligation to pay for services rendered.

(d)

If a change of Consultant is required due to circumstances beyond the control of Vaco, Vaco will make every reasonable effort to replace said Consultant.

(e)

Subject to any applicable law to the contrary, Vaco can conduct reference checks (inclusive of background checks) to Client's specifications upon request and furnish Client with this information; it is understood, however, that final reference checks, verification of education, criminal checks, credit

6.

Non-Solicitation:  Except as provided by this Agreement, Client (including all of its divisions, subsidiaries and other affiliates) will not hire or offer employment to, or otherwise directly or indirectly use the services of, on a full-time, part-time or temporary basis,

(a)

any Consultant who has provided services for Client hereunder until the expiration of one (1) year after termination of Consultant’s most recent assignment to Client, or

(b)

any Consultant or prospective Consultant who has been introduced to, recommended to or interviewed by Client through the services of Vaco, until the expiration of one (1) year after the latest of such interview, discussion, introduction, or presentation of Consultant.

In the event that Client provides the services of any Consultant, or introduces or refers any Consultant, to any third party during the course of any assignment, Client shall obtain the agreement of such third party to the foregoing restrictions and shall be responsible to Vaco for any breach thereof by it or the third party.

If Client (including its divisions, subsidiaries or other affiliates) breaches this section it will pay Vaco an amount equal to thirty-five percent (35%) of the gross annual compensation (including salary plus any guaranteed bonus) of the Consultant at issue, if the Consultant is an employee of, or offered employment by, Client (including its divisions, subsidiaries or other affiliates) or a third party to whom Client introduced or referred the Consultant. If Client breaches this section by having Consultant provide services, or allowing Consultant to provide services, to the Client (including its divisions, subsidiaries or other affiliates) or relevant third party in a capacity other than that of employee (i.e., on a consulting/hourly basis), then Client will pay Vaco an amount equal to the Consultant's last Vaco bill rate multiplied by the total number of hours worked by the Consultant for the Client (including its divisions, subsidiaries or other affiliates) or relevant third party in the twelve (12) month period following the breach of this section.

Recruiting Services

7.

Vaco’s Responsibilities:  After establishing the qualifications for the recruiting assignment, Vaco will identify prospects first by phone to inquire about their background, interest in a new opportunity, qualifications, and technical expertise in specialized industries, accomplishments, financial expectations and career goals.  If the prospect meets basic requirements, a more in-depth interview is conducted faceto-face between Vaco and the prospect (also referred to as a “Candidate”). This interview is designed to further assess the Candidate’s qualifications and overall suitability regarding the Client’s expectations.  After this interview and with the permission of the Candidate, the resume of the Candidate is submitted to the Client in person or via facsimile, e-mail, or mail. Vaco will conduct reference checks to Client’s specifications upon request and will furnish Client with this information, but it is understood that final reference checks, verification of education, criminal checks, credit checks, and other documentation deemed necessary by Client will be performed by Client.

8.

Client’s Responsibilities:  Client will designate a representative for coordination of search and placement activities with Vaco, who will work with Vaco, as required, in the evaluation and screening of prospective Candidates, timely arrangement of interviews, and the arrangement of appropriate activities in the final selection process, to include meetings with appropriate hiring managers. Client will process all Candidates in a professional manner and will keep Vaco informed on a current basis of negotiations with all Candidates.

9.

Fees:  Vaco performs its search activities on a contingency basis, meaning no fee will be assessed unless Client hires one of Vaco’s Candidates. The fee for conducting this search is 25.0% of the Candidate’s first year annual salary. Placement fees are earned by Vaco when a Candidate is hired or otherwise retained either directly or indirectly by Client (including any division, subsidiary or other affiliate of Client)

CSA CONSULTANT/DIRECT HIRE AGREEMENT (USA)

Page 3 of 8


Graphic

following Vaco’s efforts or referral, including but not limited to facsimile or e-mail transmission of a requested resume or Candidate profile, telephone interview, or personal interview, within one year of the last contact made by Vaco to Client regarding the Candidate. Candidates are referred to Client in confidence. Should Client refer or otherwise identify a Candidate referred by Vaco to another company that hires the Candidate within one year of the last contact made by Vaco to Client regarding the Candidate, Client shall be liable for the entire 25.0% fee. All fees are earned and due on the Candidate’s start date. It is mutually agreed that this is a non-exclusive contract (i.e., Client can pursue and secure Candidates from other sources with no obligation to Vaco).

10.

Guarantees:  Vaco guarantees a Candidate for sixty (60) days. If the Candidate resigns or is terminated during the first sixty (60) days of employment, Vaco will take commercially reasonable efforts to replace the Candidate at issue without any additional fee. This guarantee for a replacement at no additional fee only applies to the Candidate at issue being replaced by Vaco. This guarantee is valid only if (i) the full placement fee is paid to Vaco within 10 calendar days from the date the Candidate at issue begins employment with Client, and (ii) if a request for a replacement is received by Vaco within ten (10) calendar days from the date that the Candidate’s services cease. This guarantee is not transferable. This guarantee for a replacement at no additional fee does not apply if (i) Client has not paid Vaco the full fee within the requisite 10 day period, or (ii) if the Candidate at issue is terminated due to a company layoff, a downsizing, a reduction in force, a position elimination, a relocation, a closure of the company or a division or operating unit of the company, or a material change in job description or responsibilities.

Miscellaneous

11.

Term/Termination:  The term of this Agreement will commence as of the Effective Date of this Agreement and remain in effect until terminated as permitted herein.

Without cause, each Party may terminate this Agreement (or any specific projects reflected in subsequent addendum(s)) upon thirty (30) days written notice to the other Party.

(b)

Each Party may terminate the Agreement (or any specific projects reflected in subsequent addendum(s)) with five (5) days written notice, in the event that the other Party has breached any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement and such breach has not been cured within the five (5) days notice period.

Client agrees to pay Vaco for all fees and expenses incurred through the Effective Date of any termination.
