Except as set forth in this Amendment No. 5 (this Amendment), the initial Schedule 13D that was filed on December 6, 2013 (the Initial Filing), as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on December 17, 2014, Amendment No. 2 filed on July 1, 2015, Amendment No. 3 filed on May 16, 2019 and Amendment No. 4 filed on August 20, 2021 (together with the Initial Filing, the Original 13D), remains in effect, and capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein have such respective meanings, as defined in such Original 13D. The information set forth in response to each separate Item below shall be deemed to be a response to all Items where such information is relevant. The information set forth in the Exhibits to the Original 13D is expressly incorporated herein by reference and the response to each Item of this Statement is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of such Exhibits.

This Amendment is being filed solely as a result of the change in the number of the Issuers outstanding Class A Shares as reported by the Issuer in its Report on Form F-3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 17, 2021 and does not reflect any transactions in the Issuers shares by the Reporting Persons. As the Reporting Persons no longer beneficially own more than 5% of the Issuers outstanding Class A Shares, this Amendment is the final amendment to the Original Schedule 13D and an exit filing for the Reporting Persons.

 

ITEM 5.

INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

Paragraphs (a) and (b) of Item 5 are hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows:

(a) The aggregate number of Class A Shares and the percentage of total outstanding Class A Shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons is set forth below. References to percentage ownerships of Class A Shares in this Statement are based upon 726,102,640 Class A Shares outstanding as of September 17, 2021, as reported in the Issuers Report on Form F-3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 17, 2021. The Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 35,042,734 Class A Shares, which constitutes approximately 4.8% of the Companys Class A Shares, calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Act. The filing of this Statement shall not be construed as an admission that a Reporting Person beneficially owns those shares held by any other Reporting Person.

SC Holdco beneficially owns 35,042,734 Class A Shares, which represents approximately 4.8% of the outstanding Class A Shares calculated in accordance with the requirements of Rule 13d-3 under the Act.

SCC Growth, as the parent company of SC Holdco, may be deemed to beneficially own 35,042,734 Class A Shares, which represents approximately 4.8% of the outstanding Class A Shares calculated in accordance with the requirements of Rule 13d-3 under the Act.

SCC MGMT, as the general partner of SCC Growth, may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 35,042,734 Class A Shares, which represents approximately 4.8% of the outstanding Class A Shares calculated in accordance with the requirements of Rule 13d-3 under the Act.

SCC HOLD, as the general partner of SCC MGMT, may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 35,042,734 Class A Shares, which represents approximately 4.8% of the outstanding Class A Shares calculated in accordance with the requirements of Rule 13d-3 under the Act.

SNP, which is the parent company of SCC HOLD, may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 35,042,734 Class A Shares, which represents approximately 4.8% of the outstanding Class A Shares calculated in accordance with the requirements of Rule 13d-3 under the Act.

Neil Nanpeng Shen, who wholly owns and is the sole director of SNP, may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 35,042,734 Class A Shares, which represents approximately 4.8% of the outstanding Class A Shares calculated in accordance with the requirements of Rule 13d-3 under the Act.

By virtue of the relationship described herein, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to constitute a group for purposes of Rule 13(d)(3) of the Act. As a member of a group, each Reporting Person may be deemed to share voting and dispositive power with respect to, and therefore beneficially own, the shares beneficially owned by members of the group as a whole. The filing of this Statement shall not be construed as an admission that a Reporting Person beneficially owns those shares held by any other member of the group. In addition, each Reporting Person expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of any securities reported herein except to the extent such Reporting Person actually exercises voting or dispositive power with respect to such securities.

(b) The number of Class A Shares as to which each of the Reporting Persons has sole or shared power to vote, direct the vote, dispose or direct the disposition are as set forth in rows seven through ten of the cover pages hereof. The information set forth in Item 2 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 5(b).
