On or prior to the Closing Date, the closing conditions as set forth in the SPA were satisfied or otherwise waived by the parties thereto, and the Seller has transferred 75% of the equity interests in FuWang (HK) to Shineco Life Science; therefore, FuWang (HK) became a direct subsidiary of Shineco Life Science. In exchange, Shineco Life Science paid to the Seller RMB 63.89 million (approximately US$8.9 million) in cash, and the Company issued 3,400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”) and transferred the 71.42% equity interests in Dream Partner Limited it holds (the “Dream Partner Shares”) to the Seller.

 

The Shares were issued in reliance on Rule 902 of Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Seller represented that he was not a resident of the United States or a “U.S. person” as defined in Rule 902(k) of Regulation S and was not acquiring the Shares for the account or benefit of any U.S. person.
