In March 2020, our Board of Directors decided to suspend all China operations generated by the former CEO, Michael Wang. The results of China operations are presented in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss as net loss from discontinued operations.

(“PDN”), issued a Notice of Termination of the Agreement of Acquisition and Equity Transfer (the “Termination”). This Notice was exercised under Jiangxi PDN’s unilateral right and was delivered on March 19, 2020. Under the terms of the Termination, no additional due diligence shall be completed, any materials shall be returned to the respective owners, and there shall be no breakup fee or penalty associated with this Termination. We expect no further involvement in this matter.
