During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons and, to the best of their knowledge, any of the persons listed on Schedule A hereto has been: (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (ii) a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

CUSIP No. 89977P106

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

JD Investment BVI entered into a termination agreement with Hopeful Tourism Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong (“Hopeful Tourism”), Caissa Sega Tourism Culture Development Group Co., Ltd, a company incorporated under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“Caissa Sega”), Fabulous Jade Global Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“Fabulous Jade”), and JD.com E-commerce (Investment) Hong Kong Corporation Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong (“JD Hong Kong”) on December 19, 2023, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 (the “Termination Agreement”). The description of the Termination Agreement contained herein is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 99.2, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Under the Termination Agreement, the parties thereto agreed to terminate the share purchase agreement dated as of June 19, 2020 by and among JD Investment BVI, JD Hong Kong and Caissa Sega (as assigned and amended from time to time, the “SPA”), according to which JD Hong Kong had transferred 12,436,780 Class A Shares of the Issuer to Hopeful Tourism and JD Investment BVI had transferred all the shares in Fabulous Jade, which then held 65,625,000 Class A Shares of the Issuer, to Hopeful Tourism, but Hopeful Tourism has not paid the purchase price under the SPA to JD Hong Kong or JD Investment BVI. Furthermore, the parties to the Termination Agreement agreed that, concurrently with the termination of the SPA, the 12,436,780 Class A Shares then held by Hopeful Tourism and the 65,625,000 Class A Shares then held by Fabulous Jade shall be returned and transferred to JD Investment BVI. As of the date of this Statement, JD Investment BVI has been registered as the holder of all the returned shares, i.e., a total of 78,061,780 Class A Shares of the Issuer (the “Returned Shares”).

The consideration for the acquisition of the Returned Shares by JD Investment BVI is the agreements to terminate the SPA and to release each other from liabilities that arise from or relate to the SPA, as provided under the Termination Agreement.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

The information set forth in Item 3 is hereby incorporated by reference in this Item 4.

As described in Item 3 above and Item 6 below, which descriptions are incorporated by reference in this Item 4, this Statement is being filed in connection with the acquisition of the Returned Shares by JD Investment BVI pursuant to the Termination Agreement. Upon the closing of the share transfers contemplated under the SPA in November 2020, the Reporting Persons had transferred to Hopeful Tourism all Class A Shares of the Issuer beneficially owned by them. However, due to the failure of Hopeful Tourism to pay the purchase price under the SPA, the relevant parties finally entered into the Termination Agreement to have the Returned Shares returned to JD Investment BVI. As a result of the transactions described in this Statement, the Reporting Persons acquired approximately 21.0% of the Issuer’s issued and outstanding shares. In connection with the transfer of the Returned Shares, the Reporting Persons plan to appoint a director to the board of directors of the Issuer, and the Issuer has agreed to cooperate on the appointment of such director.

The Reporting Persons have no present intention to acquire additional securities of the Issuer, and they intend to review their investment on a regular basis and, as a result thereof and subject to the terms and conditions of the documents described in the Statement, may at any time or from time to time determine, either alone or as part of a group, (i) to acquire additional securities of the Issuer, through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, (ii) to dispose of all or a portion of the securities of the Issuer owned by it in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise or (iii) to take any other available course of action, which could involve one or more of the types of transactions or have one or more of the results described in the next paragraph of this Item 4. Any such acquisition or disposition or other transaction would be made in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and subject to the restrictions on transfers set forth in the documents described in the Statement. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, each of Reporting Persons specifically reserves the right to change its intention with respect to any or all of such matters. In reaching any decision as to its course of action (as well as to the specific elements thereof), each of the Reporting Persons currently expects that it would take into consideration a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the following: the Issuer’s business and prospects; other developments concerning the Issuer and its businesses generally; other business opportunities available to the Reporting Persons; changes in law and government regulations; general economic conditions; and money and stock market conditions, including the market price of the securities of the Issuer.

CUSIP No. 89977P106

Except as set forth in this Statement or in the transactions or documents described herein, neither the Reporting Persons, nor to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any person named in Schedule A hereto, has any present plans or proposals that relate to or would result in:

(b) An extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries,

(d) Any change in the present board or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board,

(e) Any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer,

(f) Any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure,

(g) Changes in the Issuer’s charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions that may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person,

(h) Causing a class of securities of the Issuer being delisted from a national securities exchange or ceasing to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association,

(i) A class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act, or

(j) Any action similar to any of those enumerated above.

(a) As of the date hereof, JD Investment BVI directly holds 78,061,780 Class A Shares, representing 22.0% of the Issuer’s outstanding Class A Shares, or 21.0% of the Issuer’s outstanding Ordinary Shares, or 14.8% of total voting power.

As of the date hereof, JD may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of the 78,061,780 Class A Shares directly held by JD Investment BVI, representing 22.0% of the Issuer’s outstanding Class A Shares, or 21.0% of the Issuer’s outstanding Ordinary Shares, or 14.8% of total voting power.
