Information Contained in This Report on Form 6-K

 

On December 23, 2024, NaaS Technology Inc. entered into a share subscription facility agreement (the “SSFA”) with certain investors (“investors”) for the purchase and sale of up to US$15,000,000 ADSs. In accordance with terms of the SSFA, the Company may request draw down with an initially agreed amount of up to US$5,000,000 from investors, which can be increased to up to US$15,000,000 at the election of the Company (the “Total Commitment”), pursuant to the adjustment mechanism set forth in the SSFA. Subject to terms, conditions and adjustments as set forth in the SSFA, the Company has the right to issue to any investors at a time and amount at its sole discretion, and each of such investors agrees to purchase, the number of ADSs that corresponds to the amount of draw down requested by the Company through issuance of draw down notices (each, a “Draw Down,” and each of such notices, a “Draw Down Notice”), provided that the aggregate amount of the Draw Downs does not exceed the Total Commitment. The amount of each Draw Down and the number of ADSs pursuant to such Draw Down will be subject to the following adjustments: (i) in no event will any investor hold in excess of 9.9% of the total number of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares; and (ii) investors may, by delivering a written notice to us before the close of the first trading day following the date of each Draw Down Notice, request to adjust the amount of such Draw Down to a number that is no less than fifty percent (50%) of the amount set forth in such Draw Down Notice and not exceeding one hundred percent (100%) of the amount set forth in such Draw Down Notice. For each Draw Down, subject to preceding adjustments, the investor shall purchase the number of ADSs, as requested by the Company at a purchase price based on a per share subscription price equal to ninety percent (90%) of the daily Volume-Weighted Average Price of each trading day during the period of three (3) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date of the relevant Draw Down Notice (the “Draw Down Pricing Period”). For each Draw Down, payment shall be made by an investor within three trading days following such investor’s receipt of the relevant ADSs (or such later date agreed by the Company).

 

The ADSs to be issued by the Company to investors under the SSFA will be issued pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333- 273515). Concurrently with the filing of this current report on Form 6-K, the Company is filing a prospectus supplement (the “Prospectus Supplement”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the offering of the ADSs under the SSFA.

 

This current report on Form 6-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of any offer to buy the ADSs of the Company, nor shall there be an offer, solicitation or sale of the shares of Common Stock in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state.

 

A copy of the Form of SSFA is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
