Item 9. |
Notice of Dissolution of Group.
|
(a) Although the Issuer, SoftBank Group Corp., Joseph Tsai, and
each such shareholder’s Subordinate Shareholders (as defined
therein), and, solely for limited purposes, Jack Yun Ma, are
parties to an Amended and Restated Voting Agreement, dated as of
December 17, 2021 (the “Amended Voting Agreement”),
because SoftBank Group Corp. and certain of its affiliates no
longer collectively own 15% or more of the Issuer’s outstanding
Ordinary Shares, provisions of the Amended Voting Agreement
relating to the nomination of directors as well as the voting of
Ordinary Shares in favor of director nominees are no longer
effective.
Accordingly, the Reporting Person no longer believes that it could
be deemed to be members of a “group” under Section 13(d) of
the Act with respect to the Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by
the Reporting Person and the other parties to the Voting Agreement.
Further filings with respect to transactions in Ordinary Shares
will continue to be filed, if required, by the Reporting Person in
their individual capacity.
