Item 1. Security and Issuer

This Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) amends the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by each of the Reporting Persons on March 5, 2018 (the “Schedule 13D”) related to the ordinary shares, par value US$0.01 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”) of the Issuer. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 1 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D. Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D, unless otherwise defined herein.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

(a) See Items 11 and 13 of the cover pages to this Schedule 13D for the aggregate number and percentage of Ordinary Shares that are beneficially owned by each Reporting Person as of the date of this Amendment No. 1.

(b) See Items 7 through 10 of the cover pages to this Schedule 13D for the number of Ordinary Shares that are beneficially owned by each Reporting Person as of the date of this Amendment No. 1 as to which there is sole or shared power to vote or direct the vote, and sole or shared power to dispose or direct the disposition.

(c) Except for the transactions reported herein, there have been no transactions in the securities of the Issuer effected by any Reporting Person within the last 60 days.

(d) Under the terms of the Participation Agreements, each Participant may be deemed to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Issued Securities or any ADSs issued upon conversion or exercise thereof. Based on the amount of their respective Participations, Quality Event Limited and APSOF may each be deemed to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, more than five percent of the outstanding ADSs of the Issuer. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentences in this Item 5(d), no other person (other than the Reporting Persons) is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the securities covered by this Schedule 13D.

(e) Not applicable.
