PRELIMINARY PROXY STATEMENT
SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED
SEPTEMBER 11, 2019

To the Shareholders of Greenland Acquisition Corporation:

On behalf of the board of directors of Greenland Acquisition Corporation (“Greenland” or the “Company”), we are pleased to enclose the proxy statement relating to the proposed acquisition of Zhongchai Holding (Hong Kong) Limited (“Zhongchai Holding”, and such transaction, the “Business Combination”), pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement dated as of July 12, 2019 (as may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Share Exchange Agreement”) among Greenland, Zhongchai Holding and certain other parties. It is proposed that, simultaneously with the effectiveness of the Business Combination (the “Closing”), Greenland will change its name to “Greenland Technologies Holding Corporation”.

In connection with the Business Combination and the other matters described herein, shareholders of Greenland are cordially invited to attend the special meeting in lieu of an annual meeting of Greenland (the “Special Meeting”) to be held at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on October 17, 2019 at the offices of Ellenoff Grossman & Schole LLP, at 1345 Avenue of the Americas, 11th Floor, New York, New York 10105. Only shareholders who held ordinary shares of Greenland at the close of business on September 18, 2019 will be entitled to vote at the Special Meeting and at any adjournments and postponements thereof.

Greenland is a blank check company incorporated on December 28, 2017 as a British Virgin Islands limited company and incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more target businesses. Greenland’s units, ordinary shares, rights and warrants are traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbols “GLACU”, “GLAC,” “GLACR” and “GLACW”, respectively. On September 9, 2019, the closing sale prices of Greenland’s units, ordinary shares, rights and warrants were $10.94, $10.37, $0.37 and $0.07, respectively. At the Closing, Greenland’s units will separate into their component shares and warrants so that the units will no longer trade separately under “GLACU” and the rights will automatically convert into shares so that the rights will no longer trade under “GLACR”. Greenland has applied for the listing of the ordinary shares and warrants of the Company on Nasdaq following the completion of the Business Combination, under the symbols “GTEC” and “GTECW”, respectively.

Zhongchai Holding, through its subsidiaries, is a developer and manufacturer of transmission products for material handling machineries in China. Zhongchai Holding’s transmission products are key components for forklift trucks used in manufacturing and logistic applications, such as factories, workshops, warehouses, fulfillment centers, shipyards and sea ports.

At the Special Meeting, Greenland’s shareholders will be asked to vote on the following proposals, as more fully described in the accompanying proxy statement: (i) the Business Combination Proposal, (ii) the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, (iii) the Director Election Proposal, (iv) the Articles Amendment Proposal and (v) the Adjournment Proposal, if presented (collectively, the “Proposals”).

Greenland’s board of directors unanimously determined that the Proposals are advisable, fair to and in the best interests of Greenland and its shareholders and unanimously recommends that Greenland’s shareholders vote “FOR” each of the Proposals.

The obligations of Greenland to complete the Business Combination are subject to a number of conditions set forth in the Share Exchange Agreement and are summarized in the accompanying proxy statement. More information about Greenland and Zhongchai Holding, the Special Meeting and the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement, is contained in the accompanying proxy statement. You are encouraged to read the accompanying proxy statement in its entirety, including the section entitled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 25.

Your vote is very important. As a condition to the completion of the Business Combination, an affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the voting power of the ordinary shares of Greenland entitled to vote on the Proposals who are present and vote at the Special Meeting is required with respect to the Proposals.

 

Greenland’s board of directors strongly supports the Business Combination and the other transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement and recommends that you vote in favor of the Proposals presented for your approval.

Very truly yours,

Yanming Liu

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

Greenland Acquisition Corporation

NOTICE OF SPECIAL MEETING IN LIEU OF AN ANNUAL MEETING
TO BE HELD ON
OCTOBER 17, 2019

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF GREENLAND ACQUISITION CORPORATION:

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that a special meeting in lieu of an annual meeting (the “Special Meeting”) of Greenland Acquisition Corporation, a British Virgin Islands limited company (“Greenland” or the “Company”), will be held at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time, on October 17, 2019 at the offices of Ellenoff Grossman & Schole LLP, at 1345 Avenue of the Americas, 11th Floor, New York, New York 10105. You are cordially invited to attend the Special Meeting, which will be held for the following purposes:

(1)    The Business Combination Proposal — To consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the Share Exchange Agreement dated as of July 12, 2019 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Share Exchange Agreement”) by and among Greenland, Zhongchai Holding (Hong Kong) Limited (“Zhongchai Holding”), Cenntro Holding Limited (the “Zhongchai Equity Holder”) and Greenland Asset Management Corporation (the “Sponsor”) and the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement (collectively, the “Business Combination”). Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, Greenland will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Zhongchai Holding, as described in more detail in the attached proxy statement. We refer to this proposal as the “Business Combination Proposal.” A copy of the Share Exchange Agreement is attached to the accompanying proxy statement as Annex A.

(2)    The 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal — To consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan. We refer to this as the “2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal.” A copy of the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan is attached to the accompanying proxy statement as Annex B.

(3)    The Director Election Proposal — To consider and vote upon a proposal to elect five directors to serve staggered terms on the Company’s board of directors until the 2020 and 2021 annual meeting of shareholders, respectively, and until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified. We refer to this as the “Director Election Proposal.”

(4)    The Articles Amendment Proposal — To consider and vote upon a proposal to amend Greenland’s second amended and restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Memorandum and Articles of Association”): (i) to reflect the change of the name of the Company to “Greenland Technologies Holding Corporation” from “Greenland Acquisition Corporation” and (ii) to make our corporate existence perpetual as opposed to our current corporate existence terminating 12 months (or up to 21 months, if Greenland extends the period of time to consummate a business combination) following the consummation of our initial public offering and removing various provisions applicable only to special purpose acquisition companies. We refer to this as the “Articles Amendment Proposal.” The full text of the proposed amendment to the Memorandum and Articles of Association is attached to the accompanying proxy statement as Annex C.

(5)    The Adjournment Proposal — To consider and vote upon a proposal to adjourn the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if it is determined by Greenland that more time is necessary or appropriate to approve one or more proposals at the Special Meeting. We refer to this proposal as the “Adjournment Proposal” and, together with the Business Combination Proposal, the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the Director Election Proposal and the Articles Amendment Proposal, as the “Proposals.”

These Proposals are described in the accompanying proxy statement, which we encourage you to read in its entirety before voting. Only holders of record of ordinary shares of Greenland at the close of business on September 18, 2019 (the “Record Date”) are entitled to notice of the Special Meeting and to vote and have their votes counted at the Special Meeting and any adjournments or postponements of the Special Meeting.

 

After careful consideration, Greenland’s board of directors has determined that the Proposals are fair to, and in the best interests of, Greenland and its shareholders and unanimously recommends that the holders of Greenland’s ordinary shares entitled to vote on the Proposals, vote or give instruction to vote “FOR” the Business Combination Proposal, “FOR” the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, “FOR” the election of each of the director nominees pursuant to the Director Election Proposal, “FOR” the Articles Amendment Proposal and “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal, if presented.

The existence of any financial and personal interests of one or more of Greenland’s directors may result in a conflict of interest on the part of such director(s) between what he, she or they may believe is in the best interests of Greenland and its shareholders and what he, she or they may believe is best for himself, herself or themselves in determining to recommend that shareholders vote for the Proposals. See the section entitled “Proposal 1: The Business Combination Proposal — Interests of Greenland’s Directors and Officers and Others in the Business Combination” in the accompanying proxy statement for a further discussion of this.

Each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Director Election Proposal and the Articles Amendment Proposal is interdependent upon the others and must be approved in order for Greenland to complete the Business Combination contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement. The Business Combination Proposal, the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the Director Election Proposal, the Articles Amendment Proposal (as it is in conjunction with the consummation of the Business Combination) and the Adjournment Proposal must be approved by the holders of a majority of the ordinary shares of Greenland (the “Greenland Shares”) that are present and vote at the Special Meeting.

All shareholders of Greenland are cordially invited to attend the Special Meeting in person. To ensure your representation at the Special Meeting, however, you are urged to mark, sign and date the enclosed proxy card and return it as soon as possible in the pre-addressed postage paid envelope provided. If you are a shareholder of record of Greenland Shares, you may also cast your vote in person at the Special Meeting. If your shares are held in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, or by a nominee, you must instruct your broker, bank or nominee on how to vote your shares or, if you wish to attend the Special Meeting and vote in person, obtain a proxy from your broker, bank or nominee. If any of the Business Combination Proposal, the Director Election Proposal or the Articles Amendment Proposal fails to receive the required approval, the Business Combination will not be completed.

Whether or not you plan to attend the Special Meeting, we urge you to read the accompanying proxy statement carefully. Please pay particular attention to the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the accompanying proxy statement.

Your vote is important regardless of the number of shares you own. Whether you plan to attend the Special Meeting or not, please mark, sign and date the enclosed proxy card and return it as soon as possible in the envelope provided. If your shares are held in “street name” or are in a margin or similar account, you should contact your broker to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted.

Thank you for your participation. We look forward to your continued support.

By Order of the Board of Directors

Quorum and Required Vote for the Proposals

A quorum of Greenland shareholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. The presence, in person or by proxy, of Greenland shareholders representing a majority of the Greenland Shares issued and outstanding on the Record Date and entitled to vote on the Proposals will constitute a quorum for the Special Meeting.

Each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Director Election Proposal and the Articles Amendment Proposal is interdependent upon the others and must be approved in order for Greenland to complete the Business Combination as contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement. The Business Combination Proposal, the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the Director Election Proposal, the Articles Amendment Proposal (as it is in conjunction with the consummation of the Business Combination) and the Adjournment Proposal will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Greenland Shares that are present and vote at the Special Meeting. If any of the Business Combination Proposal, the Director Election Proposal or the Articles Amendment Proposal fails to receive the required approval, none of the Proposals will be approved and the Business Combination will not be completed.

Recommendation to Greenland Shareholders

The Greenland Board has unanimously determined that each of the Proposals is fair to and in the best interests of Greenland and its shareholders and has unanimously approved such Proposals. The Greenland Board unanimously recommends that shareholders:

•        Vote “FOR” the Business Combination Proposal;

•        Vote “FOR” the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal;

•        Vote “FOR” the election of each of the directors pursuant to the Director Election Proposal;

•        Vote “FOR” the Articles Amendment Proposal; and

•        Vote “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal, if it is presented at the Special Meeting.

The existence of any financial and personal interests of one or more of Greenland’s directors may be argued to result in a conflict of interest on the part of such director(s) between what he, she or they may believe is in the best interests of Greenland and its shareholders and what he, she or they may believe is best for himself, herself or themselves in determining to recommend that shareholders vote for the Proposals. See the section entitled “Proposal 1: The Business Combination Proposal — Interests of Greenland’s Directors and Officers and Others in the Business Combination” in this proxy statement for a further discussion of such interests and potential conflicts of interest.

Regulatory Approvals

The Business Combination and the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement are not subject to any additional regulatory requirement or approval, except for (i) filings with British Virgin Islands necessary to effectuate the proposed amendment to the Memorandum and Articles of Association and (ii) SEC filings required pursuant to the reporting requirements applicable to Greenland, and the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, including the requirement to disseminate this proxy statement to Greenland’s shareholders.

Appraisal Rights

Appraisal rights are not available to our shareholders in connection with the Business Combination under the structure as presently contemplated.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q.     Why am I receiving this proxy statement?

A.     You are receiving this proxy statement in connection with the Special Meeting of Greenland shareholders. Greenland is holding the Special Meeting to consider and vote upon the following five Proposals. Your vote is important. You are encouraged to vote as soon as possible after carefully reviewing this proxy statement.

Greenland’s shareholders are being asked to consider and vote upon the Business Combination Proposal to approve the Share Exchange Agreement and the Business Combination contemplated thereby. The Share Exchange Agreement provides that, among other things, Greenland will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Zhongchai Holding. Shareholder approval of the Share Exchange Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby is required by the Share Exchange Agreement and the Memorandum and Articles of Association as well as to comply with Nasdaq listing rules 5635(a) and (d). A copy of the Share Exchange Agreement is attached to this proxy statement as Annex A and Greenland encourages its shareholders to read it in its entirety. See the section entitled “Proposal 1: The Business Combination Proposal.”

Greenland’s shareholders are also being asked to consider and vote upon the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal to adopt the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan. Among other things, the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan, which would become effective upon the completion of the Business Combination, is intended to maintain and strengthen the Company’s ability to attract and retain key employees, directors, consultants and certain other individuals providing services to the Company and to motivate them to remain focused on long-term shareholder value. See the section entitled “Proposal 2: The 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal.” A copy of the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan is attached to this proxy statement as Annex B, and Greenland encourages its shareholders to read the plan in its entirety.

Greenland’s shareholders are also being asked to vote upon the Director Election Proposal to elect five directors to serve staggered terms on the Greenland Board until the 2020 and 2021 annual meeting of shareholders, respectively, and until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified. See the section entitled “Proposal 3: The Director Election Proposal.”

Greenland’s shareholders are also being asked to consider and vote upon a proposal to amend the Memorandum and Articles of Association: (i) to reflect the change of the name of the Company to “Greenland Technologies Holding Corporation” from “Greenland Acquisition Corporation” and (ii) to make our corporate existence perpetual as opposed to our current corporate existence terminating 12 months (or up to 21 months, if Greenland extends the period of time to consummate a business combination) following the consummation of the IPO and removing various provisions applicable only to special purpose acquisition companies. The full text of the proposed amendment to the Memorandum and Articles of Association is attached to this proxy statement as Annex C. See the section entitled “Proposal 4: The Articles Amendment Proposal.”

Greenland’s shareholders are also being asked to consider and vote upon the Adjournment Proposal to adjourn the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, including to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if it is determined by Greenland that more time is necessary or appropriate to approve one or more Proposals to the Special Meeting. See the section entitled “Proposal 5: The Adjournment Proposal.”

The presence, in person or by proxy, of Greenland shareholders representing a majority of the issued and outstanding Greenland Shares on the Record Date and entitled to vote on the Proposals will constitute a quorum for the Special Meeting.

YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT. YOU ARE ENCOURAGED TO VOTE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AFTER CAREFULLY REVIEWING THIS PROXY STATEMENT.

Q:     What is being voted on at the Special Meeting?

A:     The shareholders of Greenland are being asked to vote on the following Proposals:

•        The Business Combination Proposal;

•        The 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal;

11

•        The Director Election Proposal;

•        The Articles Amendment Proposal; and

•        The Adjournment Proposal.

Q:     Are the Proposals conditioned on one another?

A:     Each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Director Election Proposal and the Articles Amendment Proposal is interdependent upon the others and each must be approved in order for Greenland to complete the Business Combination contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement. The Business Combination Proposal, the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the Director Election Proposal, the Articles Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal must be approved by the holders of a majority of the Greenland Shares that are present and vote at the Special Meeting.

Q.     What are the federal income tax consequences of exercising my Redemption Rights?

A.     For U.S. federal income tax purposes, Greenland shareholders who exercise their Redemption Rights to receive cash from the Trust Account in exchange for their Greenland Shares generally will be required to treat the transaction as a sale of such shares and recognize gain or loss upon the Redemption in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the amount of cash received and the tax basis of the Greenland Shares redeemed. See the section entitled “Proposal 1: The Business Combination Proposal — Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations for Shareholders Exercising Redemption Rights.”

Q.     Why is Greenland proposing the Business Combination?

A.     Greenland was organized for the purpose of acquiring, engaging in a share exchange, share reconstruction and amalgamation with, purchasing all or substantially all of the assets of, entering into contractual arrangements with, or engaging in any other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. Since Greenland’s organization, the Greenland Board has sought to identify suitable candidates in order to effect such a transaction. In its review of Zhongchai Holding, the Greenland Board considered a variety of factors weighing positively and negatively in connection with the Business Combination. After careful consideration, the Greenland Board has determined that the Business Combination presents a highly attractive business combination opportunity and is in the best interests of Greenland shareholders. The Greenland Board believes that, based on its review and consideration, the Business Combination with Zhongchai Holding presents an opportunity to increase shareholder value. However, there can be no assurance that the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination will be achieved. Shareholder approval of the Business Combination is required by the Share Exchange Agreement as well as to comply with Nasdaq listing rules 5635(a) and (d).

Q.     What will happen in the Business Combination and what is the consideration that the Zhongchai Equity Holder will receive in return for the acquisition of Zhongchai Holding by Greenland?

A.     The Business Combination consists of a series of transactions pursuant to which Greenland will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Zhongchai Holding, in exchange for the issuance of 7,500,000 Greenland Shares to the Zhongchai Equity Holder.

See the section entitled, “Proposal 1: The Business Combination Proposal — The Share Exchange Agreement — Consideration.”

Q.     What equity stake will current Greenland shareholders and Zhongchai Equity Holder hold in the Company immediately after the completion of the Business Combination?

A.     Upon the completion of the Business Combination (assuming, among other things, that no Greenland shareholders exercise Redemption Rights with respect to their Greenland Shares upon completion of the Business Combination and the other assumptions described under the section entitled “Frequently Used Terms — Share Calculations and Ownership Percentages”), after giving effect to the issuance of Greenland Shares upon the conversion of the Rights and the Private Placement Rights immediately following the Closing, but excluding the issuance of Greenland Shares upon the exercise of the Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants, the Zhongchai Equity Holder is expected to own approximately 52.1% of the outstanding

12

Greenland Shares, the PIPE Investors are expected to own approximately 4.2% of the outstanding Greenland Shares, an independent third party that is a China-based entity that acted as finder in connection with the Business Combination is expected to own approximately 0.3% of the outstanding Greenland Shares and the current holders of Greenland Shares are expected to own approximately 43.4% of the outstanding Greenland Shares (approximately 33.6% held by the Public Shareholders, approximately 0.2% held by Chardan and approximately 9.6% held by the Sponsor).

If any of Greenland’s shareholders exercise their Redemption Rights, the percentage of the outstanding Greenland Shares held by the current holders of Greenland Shares will decrease and the percentages of the outstanding Greenland Shares held by the Zhongchai Equity Holder will increase, in each case relative to the percentage held if none of the Greenland Shares are redeemed.

All of the relative percentages above are for illustrative purposes only and are based upon certain assumptions as described in the section entitled “Frequently Used Terms — Share Calculations and Ownership Percentages”. Should one or more of the assumptions prove incorrect, actual beneficial ownership percentages may vary materially from those described in this proxy statement as anticipated, believed, estimated, expected or intended.

Q.     Did the Greenland Board obtain a third-party valuation or fairness opinion in determining whether or not to proceed with the Business Combination?

A.     No. The Greenland Board did not obtain a third-party valuation or fairness opinion in connection with its determination to approve the Business Combination. Greenland’s officers and directors have substantial experience in evaluating the operating and financial merits of companies from a wide range of industries and concluded that their experience and backgrounds, together with the experience of Greenland’s advisors, enabled them to make the necessary analyses and determinations regarding the Business Combination. Accordingly, investors will be relying solely on the judgment of the Greenland Board in valuing Zhongchai Holding’s business and assuming the risk that the Greenland Board may not have properly valued such business.

Q.     What happens to the funds deposited in the Trust Account after completion of the Business Combination?

A.     After completion of the Business Combination, the funds in the Trust Account will be used to pay holders of the Public Shares who exercise Redemption Rights and, after paying the Redemptions, a portion will be used to pay transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination, including deferred IPO underwriting fees to Greenland’s investment bankers and for working capital of the Company and its subsidiaries and general corporate purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries. Such funds may also be used to reduce the indebtedness and certain other liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries. As of August 31, 2019, there were cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account of approximately $45.5 million. These funds will not be released until the earlier of the completion of the Business Combination or the Redemption of the Public Shares if Greenland is unable to complete a Business Combination by October 25, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination) (except that interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account may be released earlier as necessary to pay for any franchise or income taxes and up to $50,000 in liquidation expenses).

Q.     What happens if a substantial number of Public Shareholders vote in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and exercise their Redemption Rights?

A.     Public Shareholders may vote in favor of the Business Combination and still exercise their Redemption Rights, provided that Greenland, after payment of all such Redemptions, has at least $5,000,001 in net tangible assets upon Closing. The Business Combination may be completed even though the funds available from the Trust Account and the number of Public Shareholders are substantially reduced as a result of Redemptions by Public Shareholders. If the Business Combination is completed notwithstanding Redemptions, the Company will have fewer Public Shares and Public Shareholders, the trading market for the Company’s securities may be less liquid and the Company may not be able to meet the minimum listing standards for a national securities exchange. Furthermore, the funds available from the Trust Account for working capital purposes of the Company after the Business Combination may not be sufficient for its future operations and may not allow the Company to reduce Zhongchai Holding’s indebtedness and/or pursue its strategy for growth.

13

Q.     What conditions must be satisfied to complete the Business Combination?

A.     Unless waived by the parties to the Share Exchange Agreement, and subject to applicable law, the completion of the Business Combination is subject to a number of conditions set forth in the Share Exchange Agreement, including, among others:

•        the approval by Greenland’s shareholders of the Business Combination Proposal, the Director Election Proposal and the Articles Amendment Proposal;

•        upon Closing, Greenland having net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001;

•        the Greenland Shares being listed on Nasdaq and eligible for continued listing on Nasdaq following the Closing and after giving effect to the Redemptions; and

•        the existing directors of Greenland having resigned and the five director nominees submitted for approval by the shareholders of Greenland having been appointed to the Greenland Board.

For a summary of the conditions that must be satisfied or waived prior to completion of the Business Combination, see the section entitled, “Proposal 1: The Business Combination Proposal — The Share Exchange Agreement — Conditions to Closing of the Business Combination.”

Q.     When do you expect the Business Combination to be completed?

A.     It is currently expected that the Business Combination will be completed in the fourth quarter of 2019. This timing depends, among other things, on the approval of the Proposals at the Special Meeting. However, such meeting could be adjourned if the Adjournment Proposal is adopted by the shareholders at the Special Meeting and Greenland elects to adjourn the Special Meeting to a later date or dates to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if reasonably determined to be necessary or desirable by Greenland.

Q.     Will Greenland enter into any equity financing arrangements in connection with the Business Combination?

A.     Yes. On September 8, 2019, Greenland entered into the Subscription Agreements with certain investors, pursuant to which Greenland agreed to issue and sell to the PIPE Investors an aggregate of $6,000,000 of Greenland Shares, at a price of $10.25 per share in the PIPE Financing. The PIPE Financing is conditioned on the Closing occurring concurrently with or immediately after the closing of the PIPE Financing and other customary closing conditions. The proceeds from the PIPE Financing will be used to fund expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination and to fund the Greenland’s working capital requirements following the Closing.

Q.     Why is Greenland proposing the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal?

A.     The purpose of the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan is to enable Greenland to offer eligible employees, directors and consultants cash and share-based incentive awards in order to attract, retain and reward these individuals and strengthen the mutuality of interests between them and Greenland’s shareholders. For more information, see the section entitled “Proposal 2: The 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal.”

Q.     Why is Greenland proposing the Director Election Proposal?

A.     The Share Exchange Agreement requires that the initial Greenland Board following the completion of the Business Combination to be comprised of Min Zhang, Everett Xiaolin Wang and Hong Liang Lu to serve as Class I directors for a term expiring at the Company’s annual meeting in 2020 and Peter Zuguang Wang and Yanming Liu to serve as Class II directors for a term expiring at the Company’s annual meeting in 2021. The Director Election Proposal is being presented to implement the requirement of the Share Exchange Agreement to install the Greenland Board. See the section entitled “Proposal 3: The Director Election Proposal” for additional information.

Q.     Why is Greenland proposing the Articles Amendment Proposal?

A.     Greenland is proposing the Articles Amendment Proposal: (i) to reflect the change of the name of the Company to “Greenland Technologies Holding Corporation” from “Greenland Acquisition Corporation” and (ii) to make

14

our corporate existence perpetual as opposed to our current corporate existence terminating 12 months (or up to 21 months, if Greenland extends the period of time to consummate a business combination) following the consummation of the IPO and removing various provisions applicable only to special purpose acquisition companies. For more information, see the section entitled “Proposal 4: The Articles Amendment Proposal.

Q.     Why is Greenland proposing the Adjournment Proposal?

A.     Greenland is proposing the Adjournment Proposal to allow the adjournment of the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, including if necessary to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if it is determined by Greenland that more time is necessary or appropriate to approve one or more Proposals at the Special Meeting. Please see the section entitled “Proposal 5: The Adjournment Proposal” for additional information.

Q.     When and where will the Special Meeting be held?

A.     The Special Meeting will be held at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on October 17, 2019 at the offices of Ellenoff Grossman & Schole LLP, at 1345 Avenue of the Americas, 11th Floor, New York, New York 10105. Only shareholders who held Greenland Shares at the close of business on September 18, 2019 will be entitled to vote at the Special Meeting and at any adjournments and postponements thereof.

Q.     Who is entitled to vote at the Special Meeting?

A.     Greenland has fixed September 18, 2019 as the Record Date. If you were a shareholder of Greenland at the close of business on the Record Date, you are entitled to vote on matters that come before the Special Meeting. However, a shareholder may only vote his, her or its shares if he, she or it is present in person or is represented by proxy at the Special Meeting.

Q.     How do I vote?

A.     If you are a record owner of your shares, there are two ways to vote your Greenland Shares at the Special Meeting:

You Can Vote By Signing and Returning the Enclosed Proxy Card. If you vote by proxy card, your “proxy,” whose name is listed on the proxy card, will vote your shares as you instruct on the proxy card. If you sign and return the proxy card but do not give instructions on how to vote your shares, your shares will be voted as recommended by the Greenland Board “FOR” each of the Business Combination Proposal, the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the election of each of the directors pursuant to the Director Election Proposal, the Articles Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal (if presented). Votes received after a matter has been voted upon at the Special Meeting will not be counted.

You Can Attend the Special Meeting and Vote in Person. When you arrive, you will receive a ballot that you may use to cast your vote.

If your shares are held in “street name” or are in a margin or similar account, you should contact your broker to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. If you wish to attend the Special Meeting and vote in person and your shares are held in “street name,” you must obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank or nominee. That is the only way Greenland can be sure that the broker, bank or nominee has not already voted your shares.

Q:     What if I do not vote my Greenland Shares or if I abstain from voting?

A:     The Business Combination Proposal, the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the Director Election Proposal, the Articles Amendment Proposal (as it is in conjunction with the consummation of the Business Combination) and the Adjournment Proposal must be approved by the holders of a majority of the Greenland Shares that are present and vote at the Special Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes, while considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum, are not treated as votes cast and will have no effect on the Proposals. As a result, if you abstain from voting on the Proposals, your Greenland Shares will be counted as present for purposes of establishing a quorum (if so present in accordance with the terms of the Memorandum and Articles of Association), but the abstention will have no effect on the outcome of such proposal.

15

Q:     What Proposals must be passed in order for the Business Combination to be completed?

A:     The Business Combination will not be completed unless the Business Combination Proposal, the Director Election Proposal and the Articles Amendment Proposal are approved. If Greenland does not complete a Business Combination by October 25, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination), Greenland will be required to dissolve and liquidate itself and return the monies held within its Trust Account to its Public Shareholders unless Greenland submits and its shareholders approve an additional extension.

Q:     How does the Greenland Board recommend that I vote on the Proposals?

A:     The Greenland Board unanimously recommends that the holders of Greenland Shares entitled to vote on the Proposals, vote as follows:

“FOR” approval of the Business Combination Proposal;

“FOR” approval of the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal;

“FOR” approval of the election of each of the director nominees pursuant to the Director Election Proposal;

“FOR” approval of the Articles Amendment Proposal; and

“FOR” approval of the Adjournment Proposal, if presented.

Q:     How many votes do I have?

A:     Greenland shareholders have one vote per Greenland Share held by them on the Record Date on each proposal to be voted upon.

Q.     How will the Sponsor and Greenland’s officers and directors vote in connection with the Proposals?

A.     As of the date of this proxy statement, the Sponsor owned of record an aggregate of 1,100,000 Founder Shares and 260,000 Placement Units, representing approximately 23.5% of the issued and outstanding Greenland Shares. Pursuant to the Insider Letter Agreement, the Sponsor and Greenland’s directors and officers have agreed to vote the Greenland Shares owned by them (including the Founder Shares and the shares underlying the Private Placement Units) in favor of the Proposals. The Sponsor and Greenland’s officers and directors, as of the date of this proxy statement, have not acquired any Greenland Shares during or after our IPO in the open market. However, any subsequent purchases of Greenland Shares prior to the Record Date by the Sponsor or Greenland’s officers and directors in the aftermarket will make it more likely that the Proposals will be approved as such shares would be voted in favor of the Proposals. As of the Record Date, there were 5,782,000 Greenland Shares outstanding.

Q.     Do I have Redemption Rights with respect to my Greenland Shares?

A.     Under Regulation 23.5 of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, prior to the completion of the Business Combination, Greenland will provide all of the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to have their shares redeemed upon the completion of the Business Combination, subject to certain limitations, for cash equal to the applicable Redemption Price; provided, however, that Greenland may not redeem such shares to the extent that such Redemption would result in Greenland having net tangible assets (as determined under the Exchange Act) of less than $5,000,001 upon the completion of the Business Combination.

Public Shareholders may seek to have their shares redeemed regardless of whether they vote for or against the Business Combination, or whether or not they were holders of Greenland Shares as of the Record Date or acquired their shares after the Record Date. The Redemptions will be effectuated in accordance with the Memorandum and Articles of Association and British Virgin Islands law. Any Public Shareholder who holds Greenland Shares on or before October 15, 2019 (two business days before the Special Meeting) will have the right to demand that his, her or its shares be redeemed for a pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, less any taxes then due but not yet paid, at the completion of the Business Combination; provided that such Public Shareholders follow the procedures provided for exercising such Redemption as set forth in the Memorandum and Articles of Association, as described below, by such date. However, the proceeds held in the

16

Trust Account could be subject to claims that could take priority over those of Public Shareholders exercising Redemption Rights, regardless of whether such holders vote for or against the Business Combination Proposal and whether such holders are holders of Greenland Shares as of the Record Date. Therefore, the per-share distribution from the Trust Account in such a situation may be less than originally anticipated due to such claims. A Public Shareholder will be entitled to receive cash for these shares only if the Business Combination is completed.

Q:     May the Sponsor, Greenland’s directors, officers, advisors or their affiliates purchase shares in connection with the Business Combination?

A:     The Sponsor and Greenland’s directors, officers, advisors or their affiliates may purchase Greenland Shares in privately negotiated transactions or in the open market either prior to or after the Closing, including from Greenland shareholders who would have otherwise exercised their Redemption Rights. However, the Sponsor, directors and officers have no current commitments or plans to engage in such transactions and have not formulated any terms or conditions for any such transactions as of the date of this proxy statement. If such parties engage in such transactions, any such purchases will be subject to limitations regarding possession of any material nonpublic information not disclosed to the seller of such shares and they will not make any such purchases if such purchases are prohibited by Regulation M under the Exchange Act. Any such purchase after the Record Date would include a contractual acknowledgement that the selling shareholder, although still the record holder of Greenland Shares, is no longer the beneficial owner thereof and therefore agrees not to exercise its Redemption Rights. In the event the Sponsor or Greenland’s directors, officers or advisors or their affiliates purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions from Public Shareholders who have already elected to exercise their Redemption Rights, such selling shareholders would be required to revoke their prior elections to redeem their shares.

Any such privately negotiated purchases may be effected at purchase prices that are in excess of the per-share pro rata portion of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (including by way of the Sponsor transferring Founder Shares to any such seller of Greenland Shares). Any such purchases may not be in the best interest of Public Shareholders not receiving any such excess purchase price. There is no limit on the number of Greenland Shares that could be acquired by the Sponsor and Greenland’s directors, officers, advisors or their affiliates, or the price to be paid (including the number of Founder Shares that could be transferred).

Pursuant to the Insider Letter Agreement, the Sponsor and Greenland’s directors and officers have agreed to waive their Redemption Rights with respect to (i) the 1,100,000 Founder Shares owned by the Sponsor, (ii) the 260,000 shares underlying the Placement Units owned by the Sponsor and (iii) any other Greenland Shares owned by the Sponsor or Greenland’s directors and officers, and such Founder Shares and shares underlying such Placement Units will be excluded from the pro rata calculation used to determine the per-share Redemption Price. However, if the Sponsor or Greenland’s directors, officers and their affiliates acquired Public Shares in or after the IPO (or acquire Public Shares following the date of this proxy statement), they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if Greenland fails to complete a Business Combination by October 25, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination).

Q.     Is there a limit on the number of shares I may redeem?

A.     Each Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate or any other person with whom such Public Shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from seeking Redemption Rights with respect to 15% or more of the Public Shares. Accordingly, any shares held by a Public Shareholder or “group” in excess of such 15% cap will not be redeemed by Greenland. Any Public Shareholder who holds less than 15% of the Public Shares may have all of the Public Shares held by him or her redeemed for cash.

Q.     How do I exercise my Redemption Rights?

A.     If you are a Public Shareholder and you seek to have your shares redeemed, you must (i) demand, no later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern time on October 15, 2019 (two (2) business days before the Special Meeting), that Greenland redeem your shares into cash; (ii) affirmatively certify in your request to Greenland’s Transfer Agent for Redemption if you “ARE” or “ARE NOT” acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13d-3 of

17

the Exchange Act) and (iii) submit your request in writing to Greenland’s Transfer Agent, at the address listed in this proxy statement and deliver your shares to Greenland’s Transfer Agent physically or electronically using The Depository Trust Company’s DWAC system at least two business days prior to the vote at the Special Meeting.

Any request for Redemption, once made by a Public Shareholder, may be withdrawn at any time up to the time the vote is taken with respect to the Business Combination Proposal at the Special Meeting. In addition, if you deliver your shares for Redemption to Greenland’s Transfer Agent and later decide prior to the Special Meeting not to elect Redemption, you may request that Greenland’s Transfer Agent return the shares (physically or electronically). You may make such request by contacting Greenland’s Transfer Agent at the phone number or address listed in this proxy statement.

Public Shareholders seeking to exercise their Redemption Rights and opting to deliver physical certificates should allot sufficient time to obtain physical certificates from the Transfer Agent and time to effect delivery. It is Greenland’s understanding that shareholders should generally allot at least two weeks to obtain physical certificates from the Transfer Agent. However, Greenland does not have any control over this process and it may take longer than two weeks. Shareholders who hold their shares in street name will have to coordinate with their banks, brokers or other nominees to have the shares certificated or delivered electronically. There is a cost associated with this tendering process and the act of certificating the shares or delivering them through the DWAC system. The Transfer Agent will typically charge a nominal fee to the tendering broker and it would be up to the broker whether or not to pass this cost on to the redeeming shareholder. In the event the Business Combination is not completed, this may result in an additional cost to shareholders for the return of their shares.

If a Public Shareholder properly demands Redemption as described above, then, if the Business Combination is completed, Greenland will redeem the shares subject to the Redemptions for cash. Such amount will be paid promptly after completion of the Business Combination. If you exercise your Redemption Rights, then you will be exchanging your Greenland Shares for cash and will no longer own these shares following the Business Combination.

If you are a Public Shareholder and you exercise your Redemption Rights, it will not result in either the exercise or loss of any Warrants or Rights that you may hold. Your Warrants will continue to be outstanding following a Redemption of your Greenland Shares and will become exercisable in connection with the completion of the Business Combination. Your Rights will continue to be outstanding following a Redemption of your Greenland Shares and will be converted into Greenland Shares upon consummation of the Business Combination.

If you intend to seek Redemption of your Public Shares, you will need to deliver your shares (either physically or electronically) to Greenland’s Transfer Agent prior to the Special Meeting, as described in this proxy statement. If you have questions regarding the certification of your position or delivery of your shares, please contact:

Attention: Mark Zimkind

E-mail: mzimkind@continentalstock.com

Q.     What happens if the Business Combination is not completed?

A.     If a Public Shareholder has tendered shares to be redeemed but the Business Combination is not completed, the Redemptions will be canceled and the tendered shares will be returned to the relevant Public Shareholders as appropriate. The current deadline set forth in the Memorandum and Articles of Association for Greenland to complete its initial Business Combination is October 25, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination).

SELECTED UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The selected unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been derived from, and should be read in conjunction with, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information included elsewhere in this proxy statement.

The following selected unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of May 31, 2019 combines the historical balance sheet of Greenland as of May 31, 2019 and the historical consolidated balance sheet of Zhongchai Holding as of June 30, 2019, giving effect to the Business Combination as described below on a pro forma basis as if it had been completed on May 31, 2019. The following selected unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the six months ended May 31, 2019 and the period ended November 30, 2018 combines the historical consolidated statement of operations of Greenland for the six months ended May 31, 2019 and for the period from December 28, 2017 (inception) through November 30, 2018 with the historical consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income of Zhongchai Holding for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and the year ended December 31, 2018, giving effect to the Business Combination as described on a pro forma basis as if it had been completed as of the earliest period presented. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes and the sections entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Greenland,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Zhongchai Holding” and the following historical financial statements and accompanying notes of Greenland and Zhongchai Holding, which are included elsewhere in this proxy statement:

•        Greenland’s unaudited financial statements as of and for the six months ended May 31, 2019 and the related notes;

•        Greenland’s audited financial statements as of November 30, 2018 and for the period from December 28, 2017 (inception) through November 30, 2018 and the related notes;

•        Zhongchai Holding’s unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and the related notes; and

•        Zhongchai Holding’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018 and the related notes.

The historical financial information has been adjusted in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements to give effect to pro forma events that are related and/or directly attributable to the Business Combination, are factually supportable and are expected to have a continuing impact on the Company’s operating results. The adjustments presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been identified and presented to provide relevant information necessary for an accurate understanding of the Company upon completion of the Business Combination. The pro forma adjustments set forth in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and described in the notes thereto reflect, among other things, the consummation of the Business Combination and the estimated issuance of Greenland Shares in connection with the PIPE Financing.

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information is for illustrative purposes only. The financial results may have been different had the companies always been combined. You should not rely on the unaudited pro forma combined financial information as being indicative of the historical financial position and results that would have been achieved had the companies always been combined or the future financial position and results that the combined company will experience. Zhongchai Holding and Greenland have not had any historical relationship prior to the Business Combination. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.

21

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information has been prepared assuming two alternative levels of Redemption into cash of Greenland Shares:

•        Scenario 1 — Assuming no Redemptions for cash:    This presentation assumes that no Greenland shareholders exercise Redemption Rights with respect to their Public Shares upon consummation of the Business Combination; and

•        Scenario 2 — Assuming Redemptions of 3,821,622 Public Shares for cash:    This presentation assumes that Greenland shareholders exercise their Redemption Rights with respect to a maximum of 3,821,622 Public Shares upon consummation of the Business Combination at a Redemption Price of approximately $10.19 per share. The maximum Redemption amount is derived from a minimum net tangible asset requirement of $5,000,001 required pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, after giving effect to the payments to redeeming shareholders. Scenario 2 includes all adjustments contained in Scenario 1 and presents additional adjustments to reflect the effect of the maximum Redemptions.

COMPARATIVE PER SHARE INFORMATION

The following table sets forth historical comparative per share information of Greenland and Zhongchai Holding on a stand-alone basis and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined per share information after giving effect to the Business Combination, (1) assuming no Greenland shareholders exercise their Redemption Rights with respect to their Public Shares upon the consummation of the Business Combination; and (2) assuming that Greenland shareholders exercise their Redemption Rights with respect to a maximum of 3,821,622 Public Shares upon consummation of the Business Combination. There could be more Public Shares redeemed as long as Greenland has at least $5,000,001 of net tangible assets upon consummation of the Business Combination.

The historical information should be read in conjunction with the information in the sections entitled “Selected Historical Financial Information of Greenland” and “Selected Historical Consolidated Financial and Other Data of Zhongchai Holding” and the historical financial statements of Greenland and Zhongchai Holding included elsewhere in this proxy statement. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined per share information is derived from, and should be read in conjunction with, the information contained in the section of this proxy statement entitled “Selected Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information.”

The unaudited pro forma combined share information does not purport to represent what the actual results of operations of the Company would have been had the Business Combination been completed or to project the Company’s results of operations that may be achieved after the Business Combination. The unaudited pro forma shareholders’ equity per share information below does not purport to represent what the value of Zhongchai Holding and Greenland would have been had the Business Combination been completed nor the shareholders’ equity per share for any future date or period.

RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider all the following risk factors, together with all of the other information in this proxy statement, including the financial information, before deciding how to vote or instruct your vote to be cast to approve the Proposals described in this proxy statement.

The value of your investment following the completion of the Business Combination will be subject to significant risks affecting, among other things, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. If any of the events described below occur, the Company’s post-Business Combination business and financial results could be adversely affected in material respects. This could result in a decline, which may be significant, in the trading price of the Company’s securities and you therefore may lose all or part of your investment. The risk factors described below are not necessarily exhaustive and you are encouraged to perform your own investigation with respect to the businesses of Greenland and Zhongchai Holding.

Risks Related to the Business Combination

Greenland’s shareholders will experience dilution due to the issuance of Greenland Shares to the Zhongchai Equity Holder as consideration in the Business Combination and the issuance of Greenland Shares to the PIPE Investors in the PIPE Financing.

Based on Zhongchai Holding’s and Greenland’s current capitalization, we anticipate issuing 7,500,000 Greenland Shares, pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, to the Zhongchai Equity Holder as consideration in the Business Combination. Furthermore, if the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal is approved, a number of shares equal to 10% of the sum of (i) the number of issued and outstanding Greenland Shares immediately after the Closing and (ii) the number of shares reserved under the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan will be authorized for issuance under the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan. Based on the assumptions described under the section entitled “Frequently Used Terms — Share Calculations and Ownership Percentages”. In addition, Greenland will issue 585,366 Greenland Shares to the PIPE Investors pursuant to the PIPE Financing simultaneously with or immediately prior to the Closing. After giving effect to the issuance of Greenland Shares upon the conversion of the Rights and the Private Placement Rights immediately following the Closing, the Zhongchai Equity Holder is expected to own approximately 52.1% of the outstanding Greenland Shares, the PIPE Investors are expected to own approximately 4.2% of the outstanding Greenland Shares, an independent third party that is a China-based entity that acted as finder in connection with the Business Combination is expected to own approximately 0.3% of the outstanding Greenland Shares and the current holders of Greenland Shares are expected to own approximately 43.4% of the outstanding Greenland Shares (approximately 33.6% held by the Public Shareholders, approximately 0.2% held by Chardan and approximately 9.6% held by the Sponsor). Without limiting the other assumptions described under the section entitled “Frequently Used Terms — Share Calculations and Ownership Percentages”, these ownership percentages do not take into account:

•        any warrants or options to purchase Greenland Shares that will be outstanding following the Business Combination; or

•        any equity awards that may be issued under the proposed 2019 Equity Incentive Plan following the Business Combination.

If any of the Public Shares are redeemed in connection with the Business Combination, the percentage of the outstanding Greenland Shares held by the Public Shareholders will decrease and the percentages of the outstanding Greenland Shares held immediately following the Business Combination by the Sponsor and the Zhongchai Equity Holder will increase. To the extent that any of the outstanding warrants are exercised for shares, or additional awards are issued under the proposed 2019 Equity Incentive Plan, Greenland’s existing shareholders may experience substantial dilution. Such dilution could, among other things, limit the ability of Greenland’s current shareholders to influence the Company’s management through the election of directors following the Business Combination.

The ability of Greenland’s shareholders to exercise Redemption Rights with respect to Greenland’s Public Shares may prevent Greenland from completing the Business Combination or optimizing its capital structure.

Greenland does not know how many shareholders will ultimately exercise their Redemption Rights in connection with the Business Combination. As such, the Business Combination is structured based on Greenland’s expectations (and those of the other parties to the Share Exchange Agreement) as to the number of shares that will

25

be submitted for Redemption. In addition, if a larger number of shares are submitted for Redemption than Greenland initially expected, Greenland may need to seek to arrange for third party financing, in addition to the PIPE Financing. Raising such additional financing may involve dilutive equity issuances or the incurrence of indebtedness at higher than desirable levels.

Subsequent to the completion of the Business Combination, the Company may be required to take write-downs or write-offs, restructuring and impairment or other charges that could have a significant negative effect on its financial condition and its share price, which could cause you to lose some or all of your investment.

Greenland cannot assure you that the due diligence Greenland has conducted on Zhongchai Holding will reveal all material issues that may be present with regard to Zhongchai Holding, or that factors outside of Greenland’s or Zhongchai Holding’s control will not later arise. As a result of unidentified issues or factors outside of Greenland’s or Zhongchai Holding’s control, the Company may be forced to later write-down or write-off assets, restructure operations, or incur impairment or other charges that could result in reporting losses. Even if Greenland’s due diligence successfully identifies certain risks, unexpected risks may arise and previously known risks may materialize in a manner not consistent with the preliminary risk analysis conducted by Greenland. Even though these charges may be non-cash items that would not have an immediate impact on the Company’s liquidity, the fact that the Company reports charges of this nature could contribute to negative market perceptions about the Company or its securities. In addition, charges of this nature may cause the Company to violate leverage or other covenants to which it may be subject. Accordingly, any shareholders who choose to remain shareholders following the Business Combination could suffer a reduction in the value of their shares from any such write-down or write-downs.

The Company’s ability to be successful following the Business Combination will depend upon the efforts of the Greenland Board and Zhongchai Holding’s key personnel and the loss of such persons could negatively impact the operations and profitability of the Company’s business following the Business Combination.

The Company’s ability to be successful following the Business Combination will be dependent upon the efforts of the Greenland Board and key personnel. Greenland cannot assure you that, following the Business Combination, the Greenland Board and the Company’s key personnel will be effective or successful or remain with the Company. In addition to the other challenges they will face, such individuals may be unfamiliar with the requirements of operating a public company, which could cause the Company’s management to expend time and resources becoming familiar with such requirements.

The Company will be a holding company and its only material asset after completion of the Business Combination will be its interest in Zhongchai Holding, and it is accordingly dependent upon distributions made by its subsidiaries to pay dividends.

Upon completion of the Business Combination, the Company will be a holding company with no material assets other than its ownership of Zhongchai Holding. As a result, the Company will have no independent means of generating revenue or cash flow. The Company’s ability to pay dividends will depend on the financial results and cash flows of Zhongchai Holding and its subsidiaries and the distributions it receives from Zhongchai Holding. Deterioration in the financial condition, earnings or cash flow of Zhongchai Holding and its subsidiaries, including its operating subsidiaries, for any reason could limit or impair Zhongchai Holding’s ability to pay such distributions. Additionally, to the extent that the Company needs funds and Zhongchai Holding and/or any of its subsidiaries are restricted from making such distributions under applicable law or regulation or under the terms of any financing arrangements, or Zhongchai Holding is otherwise unable to provide such funds, it could materially adversely affect the Company’s liquidity and financial condition.

Dividends on the Greenland Shares, if any, will be paid at the discretion of the Greenland Board, which will consider, among other things, the Company’s business, operating results, financial condition, current and expected cash needs, plans for expansion and any legal or contractual limitations on its ability to pay such dividends. Financing arrangements may include restrictive covenants that restrict the Company’s ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to its shareholders. In addition, Zhongchai Holding and Zhongchai Holding’s subsidiaries may be subject to legal limitations on their ability to make distributions. If Zhongchai Holding or any of Zhongchai Holding’s subsidiaries does not have sufficient funds to make distributions, the Company’s ability to declare and pay cash dividends may also be restricted or impaired.

26

Some of Greenland’s officers and directors may have conflicts of interest that may influence or have influenced them to support or approve the Business Combination without regard to your interests or in determining whether Zhongchai Holding is appropriate for Greenland’s initial business combination.

The personal and financial interests of Greenland’s Sponsor, officers and directors may influence or have influenced their motivation in identifying and selecting a target for the Business Combination, their support for completing the Business Combination and the operation of the Company following the Business Combination.

Greenland’s Sponsor owns 1,100,000 Founder Shares, which were initially acquired prior to Greenland’s IPO for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 and Greenland’s directors and officers have pecuniary interests in such Greenland Shares through their ownership interest in the Sponsor. Such shares had an aggregate market value of $11,407,000 based on the last sale price of $10.37 per share on Nasdaq on September 9, 2019. In addition, the Sponsor and Chardan purchased an aggregate of 282,000 Private Placement Units, each consisting of one Greenland Share, one Private Placement Right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one Greenland Share upon the consummation of our initial business combination and one Private Placement Warrant, each Private Placement Warrant exercisable for one-half of one Greenland Share at $11.50 per whole share, for an aggregate purchase price of $2,820,000, or $10.00 per Unit.

The Memorandum and Articles of Association require Greenland to complete an initial business combination prior to October 25, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination) (unless Greenland submits and its shareholders approve an additional extension of such date). If the Business Combination is not completed and Greenland is forced to wind up, dissolve and liquidate in accordance with the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the 1,100,000 Founder Shares currently held by Greenland’s Sponsor and the 282,000 Private Placement Units purchased by Sponsor and Chardan will be worthless (as the holders have waived liquidation rights with respect to such Greenland Shares).

Greenland’s Sponsor has loaned funds to Greenland in connection with performing due diligence on suitable targets for business combinations and the negotiation of the Business Combination. At the Closing, Greenland’s Sponsor, directors and officers, and their respective affiliates, will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on Greenland’s behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable targets for business combinations. If a business combination is not completed prior to October 25, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination), Greenland’s Sponsor, directors and officers, or any of their respective affiliates will not be eligible for any such reimbursement.

Certain officers and directors of Greenland also participate in arrangements that may be argued to provide them with other interests in the Business Combination that are different from yours, including, among others, arrangements for their continued service as directors of the Company.

Further, Greenland’s Sponsor, officers and directors have, pursuant to the Insider Letter Agreement, each agreed (A) to vote any Greenland shares owned by them in favor of the Business Combination and (B) not to redeem any shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve the Business Combination.

These interests, among others, may influence or have influenced the Sponsor and the officers and directors of Greenland to support or approve the Business Combination. For more information concerning the interests of Greenland’s officers and directors, see the section entitled “Proposal 1: The Business Combination Proposal — Interests of Greenland’s Directors and Officers and Others in the Business Combination” and the risk factor entitled “— Risks Related to Greenland — Greenland’s founder and chief executive officer controls a substantial interest in Greenland and thus may exert a substantial influence on actions requiring a shareholder vote, potentially in a manner that you do not support” in this proxy statement.

Greenland has not obtained an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another independent firm, and consequently, you may have no assurance from an independent source that the terms of the Business Combination are fair to Greenland from a financial point of view.

The Greenland Board did not obtain a third-party valuation or fairness opinion in connection with their determination to approve the Business Combination. Greenland is not required to obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm that is a member of FINRA or from another independent firm that the price it is paying is fair to Greenland from a financial point of view. In analyzing the Business Combination, the Greenland

27

Board and Greenland’s management conducted due diligence on Zhongchai Holding and researched the industry in which Zhongchai Holding operates and concluded that the Business Combination was in the best interest of its shareholders. Accordingly, Greenland’s shareholders will be relying solely on the judgment of the Greenland Board in determining the value of the Business Combination, and the Greenland Board may not have properly valued such business. The lack of third-party valuation or fairness opinion may also lead to an increased number of shareholders to vote against the Business Combination or demand Redemption of their shares, which could potentially impact our ability to consummate the Business Combination. For more information about our decision-making process, see the section entitled “Proposal 1: The Business Combination Proposal — Greenland Board’s Reasons for the Approval of the Business Combination.”

Greenland does not have a specified maximum Redemption threshold. The absence of such a Redemption threshold may make it possible to complete a Business Combination in which a substantial majority of Greenland’s shareholders do not intend to retain their investment.

The Memorandum and Articles of Association does not provide a specified maximum Redemption threshold, except that in no event will Greenland redeem its Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 upon the completion of the Business Combination (such that Greenland is not subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules). This minimum net tangible asset condition is a condition to the obligations of both Zhongchai Holding and Greenland to complete the Business Combination under the Share Exchange Agreement. As a result, Greenland may be able to complete the Business Combination even if a substantial majority of Greenland’s Public Shareholders do not agree with the Business Combination and have redeemed their shares.

Nasdaq may delist the Company’s securities from trading on its exchange, which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in the Company’s securities and subject the Company to additional trading restrictions.

The Units, Greenland Shares, Rights and Warrants are currently listed on Nasdaq and it is a condition to Zhongchai Holding’s obligations to complete the Business Combination, that the Greenland Shares shall have been listed on Nasdaq and will be eligible for continued listing on Nasdaq immediately following the Business Combination after giving effect to the Redemptions.

However, Greenland cannot assure you that the Company’s securities will continue to be listed on Nasdaq in the future. In addition, in connection with the Business Combination and as a condition to Zhongchai Holding’s obligations to complete the Business Combination, the Company is required to demonstrate compliance with Nasdaq’s initial listing requirements, which are more rigorous than Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements, in order to continue to maintain the listing of the Company’s securities on Nasdaq. For instance, the Company’s share price would generally be required to be at least $4 per share and its shareholders’ equity would generally be required to be at least $5 million and the Company would be required to have a minimum of 300 public holders of “round lots” of 100 shares. In addition to the listing requirements for the Greenland Shares, Nasdaq imposes listing standards on warrants. Greenland cannot assure you that the Company will be able to meet those initial listing requirements. If Greenland fails to meet such requirements in connection with the Greenland Shares, Zhongchai Holding will not be obligated to complete the Business Combination.

If Nasdaq delists the Company’s securities from trading on its exchange and the Company is not able to list its securities on another national securities exchange, Greenland expects the Company’s securities could be quoted on an over-the-counter market. If this were to occur, the Company could face significant material adverse consequences, including:

•        a limited availability of market quotations for its securities;

•        reduced liquidity for its securities;

•        a determination that the Greenland Shares are a “penny stock” which will require brokers trading in the Greenland Shares to adhere to more stringent rules and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for the Company’s securities;

•        a limited amount of news and analyst coverage; and

•        a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.

28

The unaudited pro forma financial information included in the section entitled Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Informationmay not be representative of the Company’s results if the Business Combination is completed.

Greenland and Zhongchai Holding currently operate as separate companies and have had no prior history as a combined entity, and Zhongchai Holding’s and the Company’s operations have not previously been managed on a combined basis. The pro forma financial information included in this proxy statement is presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations that would have actually occurred had the Business Combination been completed at or as of the dates indicated, nor is it indicative of the future operating results or financial position of the Company. The pro forma statement of operations does not reflect future nonrecurring charges resulting from the Business Combination. The unaudited pro forma financial information does not reflect future events that may occur after the Business Combination and does not consider potential impacts of future market conditions on revenues or expenses. The pro forma financial information included in the section entitled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information” has been derived from Greenland’s and Zhongchai Holding’s historical financial statements and certain adjustments and assumptions have been made regarding the Company after giving effect to the Business Combination. There may be differences between preliminary estimates in the pro forma financial information and the final acquisition accounting, which could result in material differences from the pro forma information presented in this proxy statement in respect of the estimated financial position and results of operations of the Company.

In addition, the assumptions used in preparing the pro forma financial information may not prove to be accurate and other factors may affect the Company’s financial condition or results of operations following the Closing. Any potential decline in the Company’s financial condition or results of operations may cause significant variations in the share price of the Company.

During the pendency of the Business Combination, Greenland will not be able to enter into a business combination with another party because of restrictions in the Share Exchange Agreement. Furthermore, certain provisions of the Share Exchange Agreement will discourage third parties from submitting alternative takeover proposals, including proposals that may be superior to the arrangements contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement.

Covenants in the Share Exchange Agreement impede the ability of Greenland to make acquisitions or complete other transactions that are not in the ordinary course of business pending completion of the Business Combination. As a result, Greenland may be at a disadvantage to its competitors during that period. In addition, while the Share Exchange Agreement is in effect, neither Greenland nor Zhongchai Holding may solicit, assist, facilitate the making, submission or announcement of, or intentionally encourage any alternative acquisition proposal, such as a material sale of assets or equity interests or other business combination, with any third party, even though any such alternative acquisition could be more favorable to Greenland’s shareholders than the Business Combination. In addition, if the Business Combination is not completed, these provisions will make it more difficult to complete an alternative business combination following the termination of the Share Exchange Agreement due to the passage of time during which these provisions have remained in effect.

If the conditions to the Share Exchange Agreement are not met, the Business Combination may not occur.

Even if the Share Exchange Agreement is approved by the shareholders of Greenland and members of Zhongchai Holding, specified conditions must be satisfied or waived before the parties to the Share Exchange Agreement are obligated to complete the Business Combination. For a list of the material Closing conditions contained in the Share Exchange Agreement, see the section entitled “Proposal 1: The Business Combination Proposal — The Share Exchange Agreement — Conditions to Closing of the Business Combination.” Greenland and Zhongchai Holding may not satisfy all of the Closing conditions in the Share Exchange Agreement. If the Closing conditions are not satisfied or waived, the Business Combination will not occur, or will be delayed pending later satisfaction or waiver, and such delay may cause Greenland and Zhongchai Holding to each lose some or all of the intended benefits of the Business Combination.

29

Because Greenland is incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, in the event the Business Combination is not completed, you may face difficulties in protecting your interests, and your ability to protect your rights through the U.S. Federal courts may be limited.

Because Greenland is incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, you may face difficulties in protecting your interests and your ability to protect your rights through the U.S. Federal courts may be limited. Greenland is a business company under the laws of the British Virgin Islands. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon Greenland’s directors or officers, or enforce judgments obtained in the United States courts against Greenland’s directors or officers.

Greenland’s corporate affairs are governed by the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Companies Act and the common law of the British Virgin Islands. The rights of shareholders to take action against the directors, actions by minority shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of its directors to Greenland under the laws of the British Virgin Islands are to a large extent governed by the common law of the British Virgin Islands. The common law of the British Virgin Islands is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the British Virgin Islands as well as from English common law, the decisions of whose courts are of persuasive authority, but are not binding on a court in the British Virgin Islands. The rights of Greenland’s shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of its directors under British Virgin Islands law are different from what they would be under statutes or judicial precedent in some jurisdictions in the United States. In particular, the British Virgin Islands has a different body of securities laws as compared to the United States, and certain states, such as Delaware, may have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies of corporate law. In addition, British Virgin Islands companies may not have standing to initiate a shareholders derivative action in a Federal court of the United States.

Greenland has been advised by its British Virgin Islands legal counsel that the courts of the British Virgin Islands are unlikely (i) to recognize or enforce against Greenland judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States or any state; and (ii) in original actions brought in the British Virgin Islands, to impose liabilities against Greenland predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States or any state, so far as the liabilities imposed by those provisions are penal in nature. In those circumstances, although there is no statutory enforcement in the British Virgin Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, the courts of the British Virgin Islands will recognize and enforce a foreign money judgment of a foreign court of competent jurisdiction without retrial on the merits based on the principle that a judgment of a competent foreign court imposes upon the judgment debtor an obligation to pay the sum for which judgment has been given provided certain conditions are met. For a foreign judgment to be enforced in the British Virgin Islands, such judgment must be final and conclusive and for a liquidated sum, and must not be in respect of taxes or a fine or penalty, inconsistent with a British Virgin Islands judgment in respect of the same matter, impeachable on the grounds of fraud or obtained in a manner, or be of a kind the enforcement of which is, contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the British Virgin Islands (awards of punitive or multiple damages may well be held to be contrary to public policy). A British Virgin Islands court may stay enforcement proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere.

The Public Shareholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions taken by management, members of the Greenland Board or controlling shareholders than they would as public shareholders of a United States company.

The Memorandum and Articles of Association permit the Greenland Board by resolution to amend the Memorandum and Articles of Association, including to create additional classes of securities, including shares with rights, preferences, designations and limitations as they determine which may have an anti-takeover effect.

The Memorandum and Articles of Association permit the Greenland Board by resolution to amend certain provisions of the Memorandum and Articles of Association including to designate rights, preferences, designations and limitations attaching to the preferred shares as they determine in their discretion, without shareholder approval with respect the terms or the issuance. If issued, the rights, preferences, designations and limitations of the preferred shares would be set by the Greenland Board by amendment to relevant provisions of the Memorandum and Articles of Association and could operate to the disadvantage of the outstanding Greenland Shares, the holders of which would not have any pre-emption rights in respect of such an issue of preferred shares. Such terms could include, among others, preferences as to dividends and distributions on liquidation, or could be used to prevent possible corporate takeovers.

30

Greenland’s officers and directors and/or their affiliates may enter into agreements concerning Greenland’s securities prior to the Special Meeting, which may have the effect of increasing the likelihood of completion of the Business Combination, and decreasing the value of the Greenland Shares.

At any time prior to the Special Meeting, during a period when they are not then aware of any material nonpublic information regarding Greenland or its securities, Greenland’s officers and directors and/or their affiliates may enter into a written plan to purchase Greenland’s securities pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act, and may engage in other public market purchases, as well as private purchases, of securities. In addition, at any time prior to the Special Meeting, during a period when they are not then aware of any material nonpublic information regarding Greenland or its securities, Greenland’s officers and directors and/or their respective affiliates may (i) purchase shares from institutional and other investors who vote, or indicate an intention to vote, against the Business Combination Proposal or the other Proposals, (ii) execute agreements to purchase such shares from institutional and other investors in the future, and/or (iii) enter into transactions with institutional and other investors to provide such persons with incentives to acquire Public Shares or vote their Public Shares in favor of the Business Combination Proposal or the other Proposals. Such an agreement may include a contractual acknowledgement that such shareholder, although still the record holder of such shares, is no longer the beneficial owner thereof and therefore agrees not to exercise its Redemption Rights. In the event that Greenland’s officers and directors or their affiliates purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions from Public Shareholders who have already elected to exercise their Redemption Rights, such selling Public Shareholders would be required to revoke their prior elections to redeem their shares. While the exact nature of any such incentives has not been determined as of the date of this proxy statement, they might include, without limitation, arrangements to protect such investors or holders against potential loss in value of their shares, including the granting of put options and the transfer of shares or Placement Units owned by the Sponsor for nominal value to such investors or holders.

The purpose of such share purchases and other transactions by Greenland’s officers and directors and/or their respective affiliates would be to increase the likelihood of satisfaction of the requirements that (x) the holders of the requisite number of Greenland Shares present and voting at the Special Meeting vote in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and the other Proposals and/or (y) that Greenland will have at least $5,000,001 in net tangible assets upon the Closing after taking into account holders of Public Shares that properly demanded Redemption of their shares into cash, when, in each case, it appears that such requirements would otherwise not be met.

Entering into any such arrangements may have a depressive effect on the Greenland Shares. For example, as a result of these arrangements, an investor or holder may have the ability to effectively purchase shares at a price lower than market and may therefore be more likely to sell the shares it owns, either prior to or immediately after the Special Meeting.

As of the date of this proxy statement, there have been no such discussions and no agreements to such effect have been entered into with any such investor or holder. Greenland will file a Current Report on Form 8-K to disclose arrangements entered into or significant purchases made by any of the aforementioned persons that would affect the vote on the Business Combination Proposal or the Redemption threshold. Any such report will include descriptions of any arrangements entered into or significant purchases by any of the aforementioned persons.

The Company’s business and operations could be negatively affected if it becomes subject to any securities litigation or shareholder activism, which could cause the Company to incur significant expense, hinder execution of business and growth strategy and impact its share price.

In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been brought against that company. Shareholder activism, which could take many forms or arise in a variety of situations, has been increasing recently. Volatility in the share price of the Greenland Shares or other reasons may in the future cause it to become the target of securities litigation or shareholder activism. Securities litigation and shareholder activism, including potential proxy contests, could result in substantial costs and divert management’s and the Greenland Board’s attention and resources from the Company’s business. Additionally, such securities litigation and shareholder activism could give rise to perceived uncertainties as to the Company’s future, adversely affect its relationships with service providers and make it more difficult to attract and retain qualified personnel. Also, the Company may be required to incur significant legal fees and other expenses related to any securities litigation and activist shareholder matters. Further, its share price could be subject to significant fluctuation or otherwise be adversely affected by the events, risks and uncertainties of any securities litigation and shareholder activism.

Risks Related to Zhongchai Holding’s Business

Following the Business Combination, the Company will be a holding company with no direct operations that relies on dividends, distributions, loans and other payments, advances and transfers of funds from Zhongchai Holding and its subsidiaries to pay dividends, pay expenses and meet its other obligations. Accordingly, the Company’s shareholders will be subject to all of the risks of Zhongchai Holding’s business following the Business Combination.

Throughout this section, unless otherwise noted, “Zhongchai Holding” refers to Zhongchai Holding (Hong Kong) Limited and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Zhongchai Holding’s revenues, expenses and profits are difficult to predict and vary significantly from quarter to quarter. This could cause the trading price of the Greenland Shares to decline.

Zhongchai Holding’s operating results vary significantly from quarter to quarter. Therefore, Zhongchai Holding believes that period-to-period comparisons of its results of operations are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indication of its future performance. It is possible that in the future some of Zhongchai Holding’s quarterly results of operations may be below the expectations of market analysts and our investors, which could lead to a significant decline in the trading price of the Greenland Shares. Factors which affect the fluctuation of Zhongchai Holding’s revenues, expenses and profits include:

•        variations, expected or unexpected, in the duration, size, timing and scope of purchase orders;

•        the acceptance of Zhongchai Holding’s future autonomous products in the market and Zhongchai Holding’s ability to develop a profitable line of business from sales of such products;

•        changes in prices of raw materials, with higher prices leading to reduced operating income;

•        changes in Zhongchai Holding’s pricing policies or those of its competitors;

•        changes in compensation, which may reduce its gross profit for the quarter in which they are effected;

•        Zhongchai Holding’s inability to manage costs, including those related to its raw materials, personnel, infrastructure and facilities;

•        exchange rate fluctuations; and

•        general economic conditions.

A portion of Zhongchai Holding’s expenses, particularly those related to personnel and facilities are generally fixed in advance of any particular quarter. As a result, unanticipated variations in the number and timing of Zhongchai Holding’s purchase orders or prices of its raw materials may cause significant variations in its operating results in any particular quarter.

Zhongchai Holding’s operations are cash intensive, and its business could be adversely affected if it fails to maintain sufficient levels of liquidity and working capital.

As of December 31, 2018, Zhongchai Holding had approximately $6.8 million of cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash). Historically, Zhongchai Holding has spent a significant amount of cash on its operational activities, principally to procure raw materials for its products. Zhongchai Holding’s short-term loans are from Chinese banks and are generally secured by a portion of its fixed assets, land use right and/or guarantees by related parties. Certain of these loans are secured against a portion of the shares of Zhongchai Holding’s subsidiary. The term of a majority of such loans is one year. Historically, Zhongchai Holding has rolled over such loans on an annual basis. However, it may not have sufficient funds available to pay all of its borrowings upon maturity in the future. Failure to roll over its short-term borrowings at maturity or to service its debt could result in a transfer of the ownership of a portion of the shares of Zhongchai Holding’s subsidiary to secured lenders, the imposition of penalties, including increases in interest rates, legal actions against Zhongchai Holding by its creditors, or even insolvency.

Although Zhongchai Holding has been able to maintain adequate working capital primarily through cash from operations and short-term and long-term borrowings, any failure by its customers to settle outstanding accounts receivable, or Zhongchai Holding’s inability to borrow sufficient capital from local banks, in the future could materially and adversely affect its cash flow, financial condition and results of operations.

32

Zhongchai Holding grants relatively long payment terms for accounts receivable which can adversely affect its cash flow.

As is customary in China, for competitive reasons, Zhongchai Holding grants relatively long payment terms to most of its customers. The reserves Zhongchai Holding establishes for its receivables may not be adequate based on the current bad debts. Zhongchai Holding is subject to the risk that it may be unable to collect accounts receivables in a timely manner. If the accounts receivables cannot be collected in time, or at all, a significant amount of bad debt expense will occur, and Zhongchai Holding’s business, financial condition and results of operation will likely be materially and adversely affected.

Zhongchai Holding faces short lead-times for delivery of products to customers. Failure to meet delivery deadlines could result in the loss of customers and damage to its reputation and goodwill.

Most of Zhongchai Holding’s customers are large manufacturers, who generally place large orders for Zhongchai Holding’s products and require prompt delivery. Zhongchai Holding’s product sale agreements typically contain short lead-times for the delivery of products and tight production and manufacturer supply schedules that can reduce its profit margins on the products procured from its suppliers. Zhongchai Holding’s suppliers may lack sufficient capacity at any given time to meet all of its customers’ demands if orders exceed their production capacity. Zhongchai Holding strives for rapid response to customer demand which can lead to reduced purchasing efficiency, increased procurement costs and low profit margins. If Zhongchai Holding is unable to meet the customer demands, it may lose customers. Moreover, failure to meet customer demands may damage its reputation and goodwill.

If existing sources of capital are insufficient to support its business and outstanding obligations, Zhongchai Holding may issue debt and equity securities that are senior to its ordinary shares as to distributions and in liquidation, which could negatively affect the value of its ordinary shares, or Zhongchai Holding may not be able to raise additional financing at all.

Zhongchai Holding has operating and long-term and short-term loan obligations, as well as obligations to related parties, as described below under “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions — Zhongchai Holding Related Person Transactions”. If available liquidity is not sufficient to meet its operating and loan obligations as they come due, Zhongchai Holding’s plans include considering pursuing alternative financing arrangements, reducing expenditures as necessary, or limiting its plans for expansion to meet its cash requirements. However, there is no assurance that, if required, it will be able to raise additional capital, reduce discretionary spending or efficiently limit its expansion to provide the required liquidity. Currently, the capital markets for small capitalization companies are difficult and banking institutions have become stringent in their lending requirements. Accordingly, Zhongchai Holding cannot ensure the availability or terms of any third party financing. If Zhongchai Holding is unable to raise additional financing, it may be unable to procure the raw materials it needs, implement its long-term business plan, develop or enhance its products, take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures on a timely basis.

Alternatively, if the Company raises capital by issuing equity or convertible debt securities, such issuances could result in substantial dilution to its shareholders. In addition, the Company may issue senior notes, subordinated notes or preferred shares that have preference over its ordinary shares. In the event of its liquidation, any such lenders and holders of its debt or preferred securities would receive a distribution of its available assets before distributions to the holders of its ordinary shares. The Company’s decision to incur debt and issue securities in future offerings will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond its control. The Company cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of future offerings and debt financings. Future offerings could reduce the value of shares of the Greenland Shares or dilute your investment.

To remain competitive and stimulate customer demand, Zhongchai Holding must successfully manage the introduction and transition of its future automated products.

Zhongchai Holding intends to introduce a new automated product. See “Information About Zhongchai Holding — Strategic Growth Opportunity in the Robotic Carrier Market”. The success of the new product introduction depends on a number of factors including, but not limited to, timely and successful product development, market acceptance, the ability to manage the risks associated with new product production ramp-up issues, the availability of materials needed for new products, the effective management of purchase commitments and inventory levels in

33

line with anticipated product demand, the availability of products in appropriate quantities and at expected costs to meet anticipated demand and the risk that new products may have quality or other defects or deficiencies in the early stages of introduction. Accordingly, Zhongchai Holding cannot determine in advance the ultimate effect of the new product introduction and transition.

Zhongchai Holding faces intense competition, and if it is unable to compete effectively it may not be able to maintain profitability.

Zhongchai Holding competes with many other companies located in the PRC and internationally that manufacture similar products. Many of its competitors are larger companies with greater financial resources. Intense competition in a challenging economic environment in the PRC has, in the past, put pressure on Zhongchai Holding’s margins and may adversely affect its future financial performance. Moreover, intense competition may result in potential or actual litigation between Zhongchai Holding and its competitors relating to such activities as competitive sales practices, relationships with its suppliers and customers or other matters.

While Zhongchai Holding believes that its manufacturing efficiency and capabilities provide it with a competitive advantage among its competitors, it is likely that its competitors will seek to develop similar competing products in the near future. Zhongchai Holding intends to continue to expand research and development efforts to advance its transmission and robotic technology even further, including improving the design, application and manufacturing of internal combustion engines. However, there can be no assurance that Zhongchai Holding’s initial competitive advantage will be retained and that one or more competitors will not develop products that are equal or superior in quality and are better priced than Zhongchai Holding’s products.

Zhongchai Holding’s revenues are highly dependent on a limited number of customers and the loss of any one of its major customers could materially and adversely affect its growth and revenues.

During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, Zhongchai Holding’s five largest customers contributed 39.9% and 37.9% of its total revenues, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, Zhongchai Holding’s five largest customers contributed 38.7% and 40.2%, respectively, of its total revenues. As a result of its reliance on a limited number of customers, Zhongchai Holding may face pricing and other competitive pressures, which may have a material adverse effect on its profits and its revenues. The volume of products sold for specific customers varies from year to year, especially since Zhongchai Holding is not the exclusive provider for any customers. In addition, there are a number of factors, other than its performance, that could cause the loss of a customer or a substantial reduction in the products that Zhongchai Holding provides to any customer and that may not be predictable. For example, Zhongchai Holding’s customers may decide to reduce spending on Zhongchai Holding’s products or a customer may no longer need Zhongchai Holding’s products following the completion of a project. Furthermore, such customers do not have long-term contracts with Zhongchai Holding requiring such customers to purchase a quantified amount of products or at all. The loss of any one of its major customers, a decrease in the volume of sales to these customers or a decrease in the price at which Zhongchai Holding sells its products to customers could materially adversely affect Zhongchai Holding’s profits and revenues.

In addition, this customer concentration may subject Zhongchai Holding to perceived or actual leverage that its customers may have in negotiations, given their relative size and importance to Zhongchai Holding. If Zhongchai Holding’s customers seek to negotiate their agreements on terms less favorable to Zhongchai Holding and Zhongchai Holding accepts such terms, such unfavorable terms may have a material adverse effect on Zhongchai Holding’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Accordingly, unless and until it diversifies and expands its customer base, Zhongchai Holding’s future success will significantly depend upon the timing and volume of business from its largest customers and the financial and operational success of these customers.

As Zhongchai Holding expands its operations, it may need to establish a more diverse supplier network for its raw materials. The failure to secure a more diverse supplier network could have an adverse effect on its financial condition.

Zhongchai Holding purchases its raw materials from various suppliers for use in the manufacture of its products. For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 and the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, none of Zhongchai Holding’s suppliers accounted for more than 10% of total procurement costs. In the event that Zhongchai Holding needs to diversify its supplier network, it may not be able to procure a sufficient supply of raw materials at a competitive price, which could have an adverse effect on its results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Furthermore, despite its efforts to control its supply of raw materials and maintain good relationships with its existing suppliers, Zhongchai Holding could lose one or more of its existing suppliers at any time. The loss of one or more suppliers

34

could increase its reliance on higher cost or lower quality supplies, which could negatively affect its profitability. Any interruptions to, or decline in, the amount or quality of its raw materials supply could materially disrupt its production and adversely affect its business, financial condition and financial prospects.

Volatile steel prices can cause significant fluctuations in Zhongchai Holding’s operating results. Zhongchai Holding’s revenues and operating income could decrease if steel prices increases or if it is unable to pass price increases on to its customers.

Zhongchai Holding’s principal raw material are processed metal parts and components which are made of carburizing steel. The steel industry as a whole is cyclical and, at times, pricing and availability of steel can be volatile due to numerous factors beyond Zhongchai Holding’s control, including general domestic and international economic conditions, labor costs, sales levels, competition, levels of inventory, consolidation of steel producers, higher raw material costs for steel producers, import duties and tariffs and currency exchange rates. This volatility can significantly affect the availability and cost of raw materials.

Zhongchai Holding’s suppliers, like many other processed metal parts and components manufacturers, maintain substantial inventories of steel to accommodate the short lead times and just-in-time delivery requirements of customers. Accordingly, they purchase steel in an effort to maintain their inventory at levels that they believe to be appropriate to satisfy the anticipated needs of customers based upon historic buying practices, supply agreements with customers and market conditions. When steel prices increase, competitive conditions will influence how much of the price increase suppliers would pass on to Zhongchai Holding and how much Zhongchai Holding can pass on to its customers. To the extent Zhongchai Holding is unable to pass on future price increases in raw materials to its customers, the revenues and profitability of Zhongchai Holding’s business could be adversely affected.

In 2017, China continued focusing on addressing the overcapacity in the steel industry and strengthening supply-side structural reform to drive sustained growth. As of December 2017, China has lowered steel production by about 115 million tons, according to reports issued by the Chinese government. Zhongchai Holding believes that the Chinese government will continue its efforts and target cutting 150 million tons of steel capacity by the end of 2018, while strictly controlling steel capacity increases. As a result, the average price of steel products, including its products and principal raw materials, increased in 2017. Steel demand continued to slightly outpace supply due to the reduction of overcapacity and average price of steel products continued to rise in 2018. However, there can be no assurance that Zhongchai Holding will be able to raise its prices to compensate for the increase in raw materials.

Zhongchai Holding is subject to various risks and uncertainties that might affect its ability to procure quality raw materials.

Zhongchai Holding’s performance depends on its ability to procure low cost, high quality raw materials on a timely basis from its suppliers. Zhongchai Holding’s suppliers are subject to certain risks, including availability of raw materials, labor disputes, inclement weather, natural disasters, and general economic and political conditions, which might limit the ability of Zhongchai Holding’s suppliers to provide low cost, high quality merchandise on a timely basis. Furthermore, for these or other reasons, one or more of Zhongchai Holding’s suppliers might not adhere to Zhongchai Holding’s quality control standards, and Zhongchai Holding might not identify the deficiency. Zhongchai Holding’s suppliers’ failure to supply quality materials at a reasonable cost on a timely basis could reduce Zhongchai Holding’s net sales or profits, damage its reputation and have an adverse effect on its financial condition.

Zhongchai Holding may lose its competitive advantage, and its operations may suffer, if it fails to prevent the loss or misappropriation of, or disputes over, its intellectual property.

Zhongchai Holding relies on a combination of patents, trademarks, trade secrets and confidentiality agreements to protect its intellectual property rights. While Zhongchai Holding is not currently aware of any infringement on its intellectual property rights, its ability to compete successfully and to achieve future revenue growth will depend, in significant part, on its ability to protect its proprietary technology. Despite many laws and regulations promulgated, as well as other efforts made, by China over the past several years in an attempt to protect intellectual property rights, intellectual property rights are not as certain in China as they would be in many Western countries, including the United States. Furthermore, enforcement of such laws and regulations in China has not been fully developed. Neither the administrative agencies nor the court systems in China are as equipped as their counterparts in developed countries to deal with violations or handle the nuances and complexities between compliant technological innovation and non-compliant infringement.

35

Zhongchai Holding’s transmission technology is protected through a combination of patents, trade secrets, confidentiality agreements and other methods. However, its competitors may independently develop similar proprietary methodologies or duplicate its products, or develop alternatives, which could have a material adverse effect on Zhongchai Holding’s business, results of operations and financial condition. The misappropriation or duplication of Zhongchai Holding’s intellectual property could disrupt its ongoing business, distract its management and employees, reduce its revenues and increase its expenses. Zhongchai Holding may need to litigate to enforce its intellectual property rights. Any such litigation could be time consuming and costly and the outcome of any such litigation cannot be guaranteed.

Zhongchai Holding has limited insurance coverage and may incur losses resulting from product liability claims, business interruption or natural disasters.

Zhongchai Holding is exposed to risks associated with product liability claims in the event that the use of its products results in property damage or personal injury. Since its products are ultimately incorporated into forklifts, it is possible that users of forklifts or people installing Zhongchai Holding’s products could be injured or killed, whether as a result of defects, improper installation or other causes. Because Zhongchai Holding continues to expand its customer base and because its products are used for long periods of time, Zhongchai Holding is unable to predict whether product liability claims will be brought against it in the future or to predict the impact of any resulting adverse publicity on its business. The successful assertion of product liability claims against Zhongchai Holding could result in potentially significant monetary damages and require Zhongchai Holding to make significant payments. Zhongchai Holding does not carry product liability insurance and may not have adequate resources to satisfy a judgment in the event of a successful claim against it. Any business interruption or natural disaster could result in substantial losses and diversion of Zhongchai Holding’s resources and materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations.

Failure to make adequate contributions to various employee benefit plans as required by PRC regulations may subject Zhongchai Holding to penalties.

Zhongchai Holding is required under PRC law to participate in various government sponsored employee benefit plans, including social security insurance, housing funds and other welfare-oriented payments, and contribute to the plans in amounts equal to certain percentages of salaries, including bonuses and allowances, of its employees up to a maximum amount specified by the local government from time to time at locations where Zhongchai Holding operates its businesses. Zhongchai Holding has not made adequate employee benefit payments to the social security insurance and the housing fund. Zhongchai Holding may be required to make up the contributions for these plans. In addition, Zhongchai Holding may be required to pay late fees equal to 0.05% of the shortage of the contributions to the social security fund for each day Zhongchai Holding fails to make up the contributions and may be imposed fines up to three times of such shortage if Zhongchai Holding fails to make up the difference within the time frame prescribed by relevant government authorities. If Zhongchai Holding is subject to late fees or fines in relation to the underpaid employee benefits, Zhongchai Holding’s financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

If labor costs in the PRC increase substantially, Zhongchai Holding’s business and costs of operations may be adversely affected.

In recent years, the Chinese economy has experienced inflation and labor cost increases. Average wages are projected to continue to increase. Further, under PRC law Zhongchai Holding is required to pay various statutory employee benefits, including pensions, housing funds, medical insurance, work-related injury insurance, unemployment insurance and maternity insurance to designated government agencies for the benefit of its employees. The relevant government agencies may examine whether an employer has made adequate payments to the statutory employee benefits, and those employers who fail to make adequate payments may be subject to late payment fees, fines and/or other penalties. Zhongchai Holding expects that its labor costs, including wages and employee benefits, will continue to increase based on the past trends. If Zhongchai Holding is unable to control its labor costs or pass such increased labor costs on to Zhongchai Holding’s customers, its financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

36

Competition for Zhongchai Holding’s employees is intense, and it may not be able to attract and retain the highly skilled employees needed to support its business.

As Zhongchai Holding continues to experience growth, it believes its success depends on the efforts and talents of its employees, including engineers, financial personnel and marketing professionals. Its future success depends on its continued ability to attract, develop, motivate and retain highly qualified and skilled employees. Competition for highly skilled engineering, sales, technical and financial personnel is extremely intense. Zhongchai Holding may not be able to hire and retain these personnel at compensation levels consistent with its existing compensation and salary structure. Many of the companies with which Zhongchai Holding competes for experienced employees have greater resources than Zhongchai Holding has and may be able to offer more attractive terms of employment.

In addition, Zhongchai Holding invests significant time and expense in training its employees, which increases their value to competitors who may seek to recruit them. If Zhongchai Holding fails to retain its employees, it could incur significant expenses in hiring and training their replacements, and the quality of its services and its ability to serve customers could diminish, resulting in a material adverse effect on its business.

Zhongchai Holding’s business depends on the continued efforts of its senior management. If one or more of its key executives were unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, its business may be severely disrupted.

Zhongchai Holding’s business operations depend on the continuing services of its senior management, particularly Peter Zuguang Wang, its sole director, and its other executive officers named in this proxy statement. While Zhongchai Holding has provided different incentives to its management, it cannot assure you that it can continue to retain their services. If one or more of Zhongchai Holding’s key executives were unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, it may not be able to replace them easily or at all, its future growth may be constrained, its business may be severely disrupted and its financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected, and it may incur additional expenses to recruit, train and retain qualified personnel. In addition, although Greenland has entered into a non-competition agreement with Zhongchai Equity Holder and its affiliates, including Mr. Wang, there is no assurance that any member of Zhongchai Holding’s management team will not join its competitors or form a competing business. If any dispute arises between Zhongchai Holding and its current or former officers, it may have to incur substantial costs and expenses in order to enforce such agreements in China or it may be unable to enforce them at all.

If the status of Zhejiang Zhongchai as a “High and New Technology Enterprise” is revoked or expires, it may have to pay additional taxes or make up any previously unpaid taxes and may be subject to a higher tax rate, which would adversely affect its results of operations.

The PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law generally imposes a uniform income tax rate of 25% on all enterprises, but grants preferential treatment to “High and New Technology Enterprises” (“HNTEs”), pursuant to which HNTEs are instead subject to an income tax rate of 15%, subject to a requirement that they re-apply for HNTE status every three years. During this three-year period, an HNTE must conduct a qualification self-review each year to ensure it meets the HNTE criteria, and will be subject to the regular 25% income tax rate for any year in which it does not meet the criteria. Zhejiang Zhongchai is qualified as an HNTE and therefore enjoyed 15% preferential income tax rate for the three years starting January 1, 2016 through December 31, 2019, and will need to re-apply for HNTE qualification in 2019.

There are uncertainties regarding future interpretation and implementation of the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law and its implementing regulations. It is possible that the HNTE qualification of Zhejiang Zhongchai, or its entitlement to an income tax exemption or refund of their value-added tax, will be challenged by tax authorities and be repealed, or that there will be future implementing regulations that are inconsistent with current interpretation of the PRC Enterprise Income Tax. If Zhejiang Zhongchai cannot qualify for such preferential income tax status, its effective income tax rate will be increased significantly and it may have to pay additional income taxes to make up the previously unpaid taxes, which would reduce Zhongchai Holding’s net income.

Risks Related to Doing Business in China

Changes in China’s economic, political or social conditions or government policies could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations.

Substantially all of our assets and operations are located in China. Accordingly, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be influenced to a significant degree by political, economic and social conditions in China generally. The PRC economy differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including the level of government involvement, level of development, growth rate, control of foreign exchange and allocation of resources. Although the PRC government has implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, the reduction of state ownership of productive assets, and the establishment of improved corporate governance in business enterprises, a substantial portion of productive assets in China is still owned by the government. In addition, the PRC government continues to play a significant role in regulating industry development by imposing industrial policies.

The PRC government also exercises significant control over China’s economic growth through allocating resources, controlling payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy, and providing preferential treatment to particular industries or companies.

While the PRC economy has experienced significant growth over the past decades, growth has been uneven, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy, and the rate of growth has been slowing since 2012. Any adverse changes in economic conditions in China, in the policies of the PRC government or in the laws and regulations in China could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth of China. Such developments could adversely affect our business and operating results, lead to reduction in demand for our services and adversely affect our competitive position. The PRC government has implemented various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of resources. Some of these measures may benefit the overall PRC economy, but may have a negative effect on us. For example, our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected by government control over capital investments or changes in tax regulations. In addition, in the past the PRC government has implemented certain measures, including interest rate adjustment, to control the pace of economic growth. These measures may cause decreased economic activity in China, which may adversely affect our business and operating results.

A severe or prolonged downturn in the PRC or global economy could materially and adversely affect our business and our financial condition.

The global macroeconomic environment is facing challenges. There is considerable uncertainty over the long-term effects of the expansionary monetary and fiscal policies adopted by the central banks and financial authorities of some of the world’s leading economies, including the United States and China. There have been concerns over unrest and terrorist threats in the Middle East, Europe and Africa and over the conflicts involving Ukraine, Syria and North Korea. There have also been concerns on the relationship among China and other Asian countries, which may result in or intensify potential conflicts in relation to territorial disputes, and the trade disputes between the United States and China. It is unclear whether these challenges and uncertainties will be contained or resolved, and what effects they may have on the global political and economic conditions in the long term.

Economic conditions in China are sensitive to global economic conditions, changes in domestic economic and political policies and the expected or perceived overall economic growth rate in China. While the economy in China has grown significantly over the past decades, growth has been uneven, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy, and the rate of growth has been slowing in recent years. Although growth of China’s economy remained relatively stable, there is a possibility that China’s economic growth may materially decline in the near future. Any severe or prolonged slowdown in the global or PRC economy may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Uncertainties with respect to the PRC legal system and changes in laws and regulations in China could adversely affect us.

Zhongchai Holding conducts its business primarily through its PRC subsidiaries. Its operations in China are governed by PRC laws and regulations. The PRC subsidiaries are subject to laws and regulations applicable to foreign investment in China. The PRC legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes. Unlike the common law

38

system, prior court decisions under the civil law system may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value. In addition, any new or changes in PRC laws and regulations related to foreign investment in China could affect the business environment and our ability to operate our business in China.

From time to time, we may have to resort to administrative and court proceedings to enforce our legal rights. Any administrative and court proceedings in China may be protracted, resulting in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention. Since PRC administrative and court authorities have significant discretion in interpreting and implementing statutory provisions and contractual terms, it may be more difficult to evaluate the outcome of administrative and court proceedings and the level of legal protection we enjoy than in more developed legal systems. These uncertainties may impede our ability to enforce the contracts we have entered into and could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Furthermore, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules, some of which are not published on a timely basis or at all and may have retroactive effect. As a result, we may not be aware of our violation of any of these policies and rules until sometime after the violation. Such unpredictability towards our contractual, property and procedural rights could adversely affect our business and impede our ability to continue our operations.

The PRC government exerts substantial influence over the steel sector and the manner in which we must conduct our business activities.

The PRC government has exercised, and continues to exercise, substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership, including steel sector where we have been doing our business. Any government decisions or actions to change the steel production, such as the reduction announced in 2016, or any decisions the government might make to cut spending, could adversely impact our business and results of operations.

In addition, our ability to operate in China may be harmed by changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, import and export tariffs, environmental regulations, land use rights, property, and other matters. We believe that our operations in China are in material compliance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements. However, the central or local governments of the jurisdictions in which we operate may impose new, stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would require additional expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance with such regulations or interpretations. Accordingly, government actions in the future, including any decision not to continue to support recent economic reforms and to return to a more centrally planned economy or regional or local variations in the implementation of economic policies, could have a significant effect on economic conditions in China or particular regions thereof.

You may have difficulty enforcing judgments against us.

Our assets are located, and our operations are conducted, in the PRC. In addition, substantially all of our directors and officers are nationals and residents of the PRC and a substantial portion of their assets is located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult to effect service of process within the United States upon these persons. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the PRC would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts because China does not have any treaties or other arrangements that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments with the United States. In addition, according to the PRC Civil Procedures Law, courts in the PRC will not enforce a foreign judgment against us or our directors and officers if they decide that the judgment violates basic principles of PRC law or national sovereignty, security, or the public interest.

Implementation of the new labor laws and regulations in China may adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Pursuant to the labor contract law that took effect in January 2008, its implementation rules that took effect in September 2008 and its amendment that took effect in July 2013, employers are subject to stricter requirements in terms of signing labor contracts, minimum wages, paying remuneration, determining the term of employees’ probation and unilaterally terminating labor contracts. Due to lack of detailed interpretative rules and uniform implementation practices and broad discretion of the local competent authorities, it is uncertain as to how the labor contract law and its implementation rules will affect our current employment policies and practices. Our

39

employment policies and practices may violate the labor contract law or its implementation rules, and we may thus be subject to related penalties, fines or legal fees. Compliance with the labor contract law and its implementation rules may increase our operating expenses, in particular our personnel expenses. In the event that we decide to terminate some of our employees or otherwise change our employment or labor practices, the labor contract law and its implementation rules may also limit our ability to effect those changes in a desirable or cost-effective manner, which could adversely affect our business and results of operations. On October 28, 2010, the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress promulgated the PRC Social Insurance Law (the “Social Insurance Law”), which became effective on July 1, 2011. According to the Social Insurance Law, employees must participate in pension insurance, work-related injury insurance, medical insurance, unemployment insurance and maternity insurance and the employers must, together with their employees or separately, pay the social insurance premiums for such employees.

We expect our labor costs to increase due to the implementation of these new laws and regulations. As the interpretation and implementation of these new laws and regulations are still evolving, we cannot assure you that our employment practice will at all times be deemed in full compliance with labor-related laws and regulations in China, which may subject us to labor disputes or government investigations. If we are deemed to have violated relevant labor laws and regulations, we could be required to provide additional compensation to our employees and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Further, labor disputes, work stoppages or slowdowns at our company or any of our third-party service providers could significantly disrupt our daily operation or our expansion plans and have a material adverse effect on our business.

Fluctuations in the value of the RMB may have an adverse effect on our shareholders’ investment.

Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. However, substantially all of our revenues are denominated in RMB. Any significant revaluation of the Renminbi may have a material adverse effect on the U.S. dollar equivalent amount of our revenues and financial condition as well as on the value of, and any dividends payable on, our ordinary shares in foreign currency terms. For instance, a decrease in the value of Renminbi against the U.S. dollar could reduce the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts of our financial results, the value of your investment in our ordinary shares and the dividends we may pay in the future, if any, all of which may have a material adverse effect on the prices of our ordinary shares. For 2017 and 2018, we had foreign currency translation gain of $1.7 million and foreign currency translation loss of $1.9 million, respectively, primarily due to the strengthening of the RMB against the U.S. dollar in 2017 and the material depreciation of the RMB against the U.S. dollar in 2018.

The value of the RMB against the U.S. dollar and other currencies is affected by changes in China’s political and economic conditions and China’s foreign exchange policies, among other things. In 2005, the PRC government changed its decades-old policy of pegging the value of the RMB to the U.S. dollar, and the RMB appreciated more than 20% against the U.S. dollar over the following three years. Between July 2008 and June 2010, this appreciation halted and the exchange rate between Renminbi and the U.S. dollar remained within a narrow band. Since June 2010, Renminbi has fluctuated against the U.S. dollar, at times significantly and unpredictably. With the development of the foreign exchange market and progress towards interest rate liberalization and Renminbi internationalization, the PRC government may in the future announce further changes to the exchange rate system and we cannot assure you that Renminbi will not appreciate or depreciate significantly in value against the U.S. dollar in the future. It is difficult to predict how market forces or PRC or U.S. government policy may impact the exchange rate between Renminbi and the U.S. dollar in the future.

The Renminbi may be revalued further against the U.S. dollar or other currencies, or may be permitted to enter into a full or limited free float, which may result in an appreciation or depreciation in the value of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar or other currencies. In addition, there are very limited hedging transactions available in China to reduce our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. While we may decide to enter into hedging transactions in the future, the availability and effectiveness of these hedges may be limited and we may not be able to successfully hedge our exposure, if at all. In addition, our currency exchange losses may be magnified by PRC exchange control regulations that restrict our ability to convert RMB into U.S. dollars.

40

Fluctuations in exchange rates could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and the value of your investment. Most of our revenues are denominated in Renminbi, which is not freely convertible for capital account transactions and may be subject to exchange rate volatility.

We are exposed to the risks associated with foreign exchange controls and restrictions in China, as our revenues are primarily denominated in Renminbi, which is currently not freely exchangeable. The PRC government imposes control over the convertibility between Renminbi and foreign currencies. Under the PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments for “current account” transactions, including remittance of foreign currencies for payment of dividends, profit distributions, interest and operation-related expenditures, may be made without prior approval but are subject to procedural requirements. Strict foreign exchange control continues to apply to “capital account” transactions, such as direct foreign investment and foreign currency loans. These capital account transactions must be approved by, or registered with, the PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”). Further, capital contribution by an offshore shareholder to its PRC subsidiaries may require approval by the Ministry of Commerce in China (“MOFCOM”) or its local counterparts. We cannot assure you that we are able to meet all of our foreign currency obligations to remit profits out of China, to pay dividends, or to fund operations in China.

The Circular on Reforming the Administration of Foreign Exchange Settlement of Capital of Foreign Invested Enterprises, or SAFE Circular 19, effective as of June 1, 2015, as amended by Circular of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on Reforming and Regulating Policies on the Control over Foreign Exchange Settlement under the Capital Account, or SAFE Circular 16, effective on June 9, 2016, allows Foreign Invested Enterprises to settle their foreign exchange capital at their discretion, but continues to prohibit Foreign Invested Enterprises from using the Renminbi funds converted from their foreign exchange capital for expenditure beyond their business scopes, and also prohibit FIEs from using such Renminbi funds to provide loans to persons other than affiliates unless otherwise permitted under its business scope. SAFE Circular 19 and SAFE Circular 16 may significantly limit our ability to invest in or acquire any other PRC companies through our PRC subsidiaries, or to establish new consolidated VIEs in China, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Governmental control of currency conversion may limit our ability to utilize our revenues effectively and affect the value of your investment.

The PRC government imposes controls on the convertibility of the Renminbi into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of China. We receive substantially all of our revenues in Renminbi. Under our current corporate structure, we may rely on dividend payments from our PRC subsidiary to fund any cash and financing requirements we may have. Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval of SAFE by complying with certain procedural requirements. Specifically, under the existing exchange restrictions, without prior approval of SAFE, cash generated from the operations of our PRC subsidiary in China may be used to pay dividends to our company. However, approval from or registration with appropriate government authorities is required where Renminbi is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of China to pay capital expenses such as the repayment of loans denominated in foreign currencies. As a result, we need to obtain SAFE approval to use cash generated from the operations of our PRC subsidiaries and consolidated affiliated entities to pay off their respective debt in a currency other than Renminbi owed to entities outside China, or to make other capital expenditure payments outside China in a currency other than Renminbi.

In light of the flood of capital outflows of China in 2016 due to the weakening RMB, the PRC government has imposed more restrictive foreign exchange policies and stepped up scrutiny of major outbound capital movement including overseas direct investment. More restrictions and substantial vetting process are put in place by SAFE to regulate cross-border transactions falling under the capital account. If any of our shareholders regulated by such policies fails to satisfy the applicable overseas direct investment filing or approval requirement timely or at all, it may be subject to penalties from the relevant PRC authorities. The PRC government may at its discretion further restrict access in the future to foreign currencies for current account transactions. If the foreign exchange control system prevents us from obtaining sufficient foreign currencies, we may not be able to satisfy our foreign currency demands.

41

Certain PRC regulations may make it more difficult for us to pursue growth through acquisitions.

Among other things, the Regulations on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors (the “M&A Rules”), adopted by six PRC regulatory agencies in 2006 and amended in 2009, established additional procedures and requirements that could make merger and acquisition activities by foreign investors more time-consuming and complex. Such regulation requires, among other things, that MOFCOM be notified in advance of any change-of-control transaction in which a foreign investor acquires control of a PRC domestic enterprise and involves any of the following circumstances: (i) any important industry is concerned, (ii) such transaction involves factors that impact or may impact national economic security, or (iii) such transaction will lead to a change in control of a domestic enterprise which holds a famous trademark or PRC time-honored brand. We do not expect that this Business Combination will trigger MOFCOM pre-notification under each of the above-mentioned circumstances or any review by other PRC government authorities. Moreover, the Anti-Monopoly Law promulgated by the Standing Committee of the NPC which became effective in 2008 requires that transactions which are deemed concentrations and involve parties with specified turnover thresholds must be cleared by MOFCOM before they can be completed. In addition, PRC national security review rules that became effective in September 2011 require acquisitions by foreign investors of PRC companies engaged in military related or certain other industries that are crucial to national security be subject to security review before consummation of any such acquisition. We may pursue potential strategic acquisitions that are complementary to our business and operations. Complying with the requirements of these regulations to complete such transactions could be time-consuming, and any required approval processes, including obtaining approval or clearance from MOFCOM, may delay or inhibit our ability to complete such transactions, which could affect our ability to expand our business or maintain our market share.

China’s legal system is different from those in some other countries.

China is a civil law jurisdiction. Under the civil law system, prior court decisions may be cited as persuasive authority but do not have binding precedential effect. Although progress has been made in the promulgation of laws and regulations dealing with economic matters, such as corporate organization and governance, foreign investment, commerce, taxation and trade, China’s legal system remains less developed than the legal systems in many other countries. Furthermore, because many laws, regulations and legal requirements have been recently adopted, their interpretation and enforcement by the courts and administrative agencies may involve uncertainties. Sometimes, different government departments may have different interpretations. Licenses and permits issued or granted by one government authority may be revoked by a higher government authority at a later time. Government authorities may decline to take action against unlicensed operators which may work to the disadvantage of licensed operators, including us. The PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules that may have a retroactive effect. We may not be aware of our violation of these policies and rules until sometime after the violation. Changes in China’s legal and regulatory framework, the promulgation of new laws and possible conflicts between national and provincial regulations could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, any litigation in China may result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention.

PRC regulations relating to investments in offshore companies by PRC residents may subject our future PRC-resident beneficial owners or our PRC subsidiaries to liability or penalties, limit our ability to inject capital into our PRC subsidiaries or limit our PRC subsidiaries’ ability to increase their registered capital or distribute profits.

SAFE promulgated the Circular on Relevant Issues Concerning Foreign Exchange Control on Domestic Residents’ Offshore Investment and Financing and Roundtrip Investment through Special Purpose Vehicles (“SAFE Circular 37”) on July 4, 2014, which replaced the former circular commonly known as “SAFE Circular 75” promulgated by SAFE on October 21, 2005. SAFE Circular 37 requires PRC residents to register with local branches of SAFE in connection with their direct establishment or indirect control of an offshore entity, for the purpose of overseas investment and financing, with such PRC residents’ legally owned assets or equity interests in domestic enterprises or offshore assets or interests, referred to in SAFE Circular 37 as a “special purpose vehicle.” SAFE Circular 37 further requires amendment to the registration in the event of any significant changes with respect to the special purpose vehicle, such as increase or decrease of capital contributed by PRC individuals, share transfer or exchange, merger, division or other material event. In the event that a PRC shareholder holding interests in a special purpose vehicle fails to fulfill the required SAFE registration, the PRC subsidiaries of

42

that special purpose vehicle may be prohibited from making profit distributions to the offshore parent and from carrying out subsequent cross-border foreign exchange activities, and the special purpose vehicle may be restricted in its ability to contribute additional capital into its PRC subsidiary. Moreover, failure to comply with the various SAFE registration requirements described above could result in liability under PRC law for evasion of foreign exchange controls.

We believe that some of our shareholders are PRC residents under SAFE Circular 37. We do not have control over the these shareholders and our other beneficial owners and cannot assure you that all of our PRC-resident beneficial owners have complied with, and will in the future comply with, SAFE Circular 37 and subsequent implementation rules. The failure of PRC-resident beneficial owners to register or amend their SAFE registrations in a timely manner pursuant to SAFE Circular 37 and subsequent implementation rules, or the failure of future PRC-resident beneficial owners of our company to comply with the registration procedures set forth in SAFE Circular 37 and subsequent implementation rules, may subject such beneficial owners or our PRC subsidiaries to fines and legal sanctions. Furthermore, SAFE Circular 37 is unclear how this regulation, and any future regulation concerning offshore or cross-border transactions, will be interpreted, amended and implemented by the relevant PRC government authorities, and we cannot predict how these regulations will affect our business operations or future strategy. Failure to register or comply with relevant requirements may also limit our ability to contribute additional capital to our PRC subsidiaries and limit our PRC subsidiaries’ ability to distribute dividends to us. These risks could in the future have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

All employee participants in our equity incentive plans who are PRC citizens may be required to register with the SAFE. We may also face regulatory uncertainties that could restrict our ability to adopt additional option plans for our directors and employees under PRC law.

In December 2006, the People’s Bank of China promulgated the Administrative Measures for Individual Foreign Exchange, which set forth the respective requirements for foreign exchange transactions by PRC individuals under either current account or the capital account. In January 2007, the SAFE issued the Implementation Rules of the Administrative Measures for Individual Foreign Exchange, which, among other things, specified approval requirements for certain capital account transactions such as a PRC citizen’s participation in the employee stock ownership plans or stock option plans of an overseas publicly-listed company. On March 28, 2007, the SAFE promulgated the Processing Guidance on Foreign Exchange Administration for Domestic Individuals Participating in Employee Stock Ownership Plans or Stock Option Plans of Overseas-Listed Companies (the “Stock Option Rule”). Under the Stock Option Rule, PRC citizens who are granted stock options by an overseas publicly-listed company are required, through a qualified PRC domestic agent or PRC subsidiary of such overseas publicly-listed company, to register with the SAFE and complete certain other procedures. In February 2012, the SAFE promulgated the Notice on Issues Concerning the Foreign Exchange Administration for Domestic Individuals Participating in Stock Incentive Plan of Overseas Publicly Listed Company, according to which, employees, directors, supervisors and other management members participating in any equity incentive plan of an overseas publicly listed company who are PRC citizens or who are non-PRC citizens residing in China for a continuous period of not less than one year, subject to limited exceptions, are required to register with SAFE through a domestic qualified agent, which could be a PRC subsidiary of such overseas listed company, and complete certain other procedures. Failure to complete the SAFE registrations may subject them to fines and legal sanctions and may also limit our ability to make payments under our equity incentive plans or receive dividends or sales proceeds related thereto, or our ability to contribute additional capital into our subsidiaries in China and limit our subsidiaries’ ability to distribute dividends to us. We also face regulatory uncertainties that could restrict our ability to adopt additional equity incentive plans for our directors and employees under PRC law.

In addition, the PRC State Administration of Taxation has issued circulars concerning employee share options or restricted shares. Under these circulars, employees working in the PRC who exercise share options, or whose restricted shares vest, will be subject to PRC individual income tax. The PRC subsidiaries of an overseas listed company have obligations to file documents related to employee share options or restricted shares with relevant tax authorities and to withhold individual income taxes of those employees related to their share options or restricted shares. If the employees fail to pay, or the PRC subsidiaries fail to withhold applicable income taxes, the PRC subsidiaries may face sanctions imposed by the tax authorities or other PRC government authorities.

43

If we are classified as a PRC resident enterprise for PRC income tax purposes, such classification could result in unfavorable tax consequences to us and our non-PRC shareholders.

Under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law and its implementation rules, an enterprise established outside of the PRC with “de facto management body” within China is considered a “resident enterprise” and will be subject to the enterprise income tax on its global income at the rate of 25%. The implementation rules define the term “de facto management body” as the body that exercises full and substantial control and overall management over the business, productions, personnel, accounts and properties of an enterprise. In 2009, the State Administration of Taxation (the “SAT”) issued the Circular of the State Administration of Taxation on Issues Relating to Identification of PRC-Controlled Overseas Registered Enterprises as Resident Enterprises in Accordance With the De Facto Standards of Organizational Management (the “SAT Circular 82”), which provides certain specific criteria for determining whether the “de facto management body” of a PRC-controlled enterprise that is incorporated offshore is located in China. Although this circular only applies to offshore enterprises controlled by PRC enterprises or PRC enterprise groups, not those controlled by PRC individuals or foreigners, the criteria set forth in the circular may reflect SAT’s general position on how the “de facto management body” text should be applied in determining the tax resident status of all offshore enterprises. According to SAT Circular 82, an offshore incorporated enterprise controlled by a PRC enterprise or a PRC enterprise group will be regarded as a PRC tax resident by virtue of having its “de facto management body” in China and will be subject to PRC enterprise income tax on its global income only if all of the following conditions are met: (i) the primary location of the day-to-day operational management is in China; (ii) decisions relating to the enterprise’s financial and human resource matters are made or are subject to approval by organizations or personnel in China; (iii) the enterprise’s primary assets, accounting books and records, company seals, and board and shareholder resolutions, are located or maintained in China; and (iv) at least 50% of voting board members or senior executives habitually reside in China.

We believe that we are not a PRC resident enterprise for PRC tax purposes. However, the tax resident status of an enterprise is subject to determination by the PRC tax authorities and uncertainties remain with respect to the interpretation of the term “de facto management body.” If the PRC tax authorities determine that we are a PRC resident enterprise for enterprise income tax purposes, we could be subject to PRC tax at a rate of 25% on our worldwide income, which could materially reduce our net income, and we may be required to withhold a 10% withholding tax from dividends we pay to our shareholders that are non-resident enterprises, including the holders of our ordinary shares. In addition, non-resident enterprise shareholders (including our ordinary share holders) may be subject to PRC tax on gains realized on the sale or other disposition of ordinary shares, if such income is treated as sourced from within China. Furthermore, if we are deemed a PRC resident enterprise, dividends payable to our non-PRC individual shareholders and any gain realized on the transfer of ordinary shares by such shareholders may be subject to PRC tax at a rate of 10% in the case of non-PRC enterprises or a rate of 20% in the case of non-PRC individuals unless a reduced rate is available under an applicable tax treaty. It is unclear whether non-PRC shareholders of our company would be able to claim the benefits of any tax treaties between their country of tax residence and the PRC in the event that we are treated as a PRC resident enterprise. Any such tax may reduce the returns on your investment in our ordinary shares.

Restrictions under PRC law on our PRC subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends and make other distributions could materially and adversely affect our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could benefit our business, pay dividends to you, and otherwise fund and conduct our business.

Our revenues are generated by our PRC subsidiaries. However, PRC regulations restrict the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to pay dividends and make other payments to their offshore parent company. PRC legal restrictions permit payments of dividends by our PRC subsidiaries only out of their accumulated after-tax profits, if any, determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. Our PRC subsidiaries are also required under PRC laws and regulations to allocate at least 10% of their annual after-tax profits to a statutory general reserve fund until the amounts in said fund reaches 50% of their registered capital. Allocations to these statutory reserve funds can be used only for specific purposes and are not transferable to us in the form of loans, advances, or cash dividends. Any limitations on the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to transfer funds to us could materially and adversely limit our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to our business, pay dividends and otherwise fund and conduct our business.

44

Our PRC subsidiaries generate primarily all of their revenue in Renminbi, which is not freely convertible into other currencies. As result, any restriction on currency exchange may limit the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to use their Renminbi revenues to pay dividends to us.

The PRC government may continue to strengthen its capital controls, and more restrictions and substantial vetting process may be put forward by SAFE for cross-border transactions falling under both the current account and the capital account. Any limitation on the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other kinds of payments to us could materially and adversely limit our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to our business, pay dividends, or otherwise fund and conduct our business.

In addition, the Enterprise Income Tax Law (“EIT Law”) and its implementation rules provide that a withholding tax rate of up to 10% will be applicable to dividends payable by PRC companies to non-PRC-resident enterprises unless otherwise exempted or reduced according to treaties or arrangements between the PRC central government and governments of other countries or regions where the non-PRC-resident enterprises are incorporated.

PRC regulation of loans to and direct investment in PRC entities by offshore holding companies and governmental control of currency conversion may delay or prevent us from using the proceeds of public offerings to make loans to our PRC subsidiaries in China, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.

We are an offshore holding company conducting our operations in China through our PRC subsidiaries. We may make loans to our PRC subsidiaries subject to the approval from governmental authorities and limitation of amount, or we may make additional capital contributions to our wholly foreign-owned subsidiaries in China.

Any loans to our wholly foreign-owned subsidiaries in China, which are treated as foreign-invested enterprises under PRC law, are subject to PRC regulations and foreign exchange loan registrations. For example, loans by us to our wholly foreign-owned subsidiaries in China to finance their activities cannot exceed statutory limits and must be registered with the local counterpart of the SAFE. In addition, a foreign invested enterprise shall use its capital pursuant to the principle of authenticity and self-use within its business scope. The capital of a foreign invested enterprise shall not be used for the following purposes: (i) directly or indirectly used for payment beyond the business scope of the enterprises or the payment prohibited by relevant laws and regulations; (ii) directly or indirectly used for investment in securities or investments other than banks’ principal-secured products unless otherwise provided by relevant laws and regulations; (iii) the granting of loans to non-affiliated enterprises, except where it is expressly permitted in the business license; and (iv) paying the expenses related to the purchase of real estate that is not for self-use (except for the foreign-invested real estate enterprises).

SAFE promulgated the Notice of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on Reforming the Administration of Foreign Exchange Settlement of Capital of Foreign-invested Enterprises (“SAFE Circular 19”), effective June 2015, in replacement of the Circular on the Relevant Operating Issues Concerning the Improvement of the Administration of the Payment and Settlement of Foreign Currency Capital of Foreign-Invested Enterprises, the Notice from the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on Relevant Issues Concerning Strengthening the Administration of Foreign Exchange Businesses, and the Circular on Further Clarification and Regulation of the Issues Concerning the Administration of Certain Capital Account Foreign Exchange Businesses. According to SAFE Circular 19, the flow and use of the RMB capital converted from foreign currency-denominated registered capital of a foreign-invested company is regulated such that RMB capital may not be used for the issuance of RMB entrusted loans, the repayment of inter-enterprise loans or the repayment of banks loans that have been transferred to a third party. Although SAFE Circular 19 allows RMB capital converted from foreign currency-denominated registered capital of a foreign-invested enterprise to be used for equity investments within China, it also reiterates the principle that RMB converted from the foreign currency-denominated capital of a foreign-invested company may not be directly or indirectly used for purposes beyond its business scope. Thus, it is unclear whether SAFE will permit such capital to be used for equity investments in China in actual practice. SAFE promulgated the Notice of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on Reforming and Standardizing the Foreign Exchange Settlement Management Policy of Capital Account (“SAFE Circular 16”), effective on June 9, 2016, which reiterates some of the rules set forth in SAFE Circular 19, but changes the prohibition against using RMB capital converted from foreign currency-denominated registered capital of a foreign-invested company to issue RMB entrusted loans to a prohibition against using such capital to issue loans to non-associated enterprises. Violations of SAFE Circular 19 and SAFE Circular 16 could result in administrative penalties. SAFE Circular 19 and SAFE Circular 16 may significantly limit our ability to transfer any foreign currency

45

we hold, including the net proceeds from public offering, to our PRC subsidiaries, which may adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business in China.

In light of the flood of capital outflows of China, the PRC government may from time to time impose more restrictive foreign exchange policies and step up scrutiny of major outbound capital movement. More restrictions and substantial vetting process may be required by SAFE or other government authorities to regulate cross-border transactions falling under the capital account. The PRC government may at its discretion restrict access to foreign currencies for current account transactions in the future. If the foreign exchange control system prevents us from obtaining sufficient foreign currencies to satisfy our foreign currency demands, we may not be able to pay dividends in foreign currencies to our shareholders, including holders of our ordinary shares.

In light of the various requirements imposed by PRC regulations on loans to and direct investment in PRC entities by offshore holding companies, we cannot assure you that we will be able to complete the necessary government registrations or obtain the necessary government approvals on a timely basis, if at all, with respect to future loans to our PRC subsidiaries or future capital contributions by us to our wholly foreign-owned subsidiaries in China. As a result, uncertainties exist as to our ability to provide prompt financial support to our PRC subsidiaries when needed. If we fail to complete such registrations or obtain such approvals, our ability to use the proceeds we expect to receive from public offering and to capitalize or otherwise fund our PRC operations may be negatively affected, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.

We face uncertainty with respect to indirect transfers of equity interests in PRC resident enterprises by their non-PRC holding companies.

In February 2015, the SAT issued the Public Notice Regarding Certain Enterprise Income Tax Matters on Indirect Transfer of Properties by Non-Resident Enterprises, or SAT Public Notice 7. SAT Public Notice 7 extends its tax jurisdiction to not only indirect transfers but also transactions involving transfer of other taxable assets, through the offshore transfer of a foreign intermediate holding company. In addition, SAT Public Notice 7 provides certain criteria on how to assess reasonable commercial purposes and has introduced safe harbors for internal group restructurings and the purchase and sale of equity through a public securities market. SAT Public Notice 7 also brings challenges to both the foreign transferor and transferee (or other person who is obligated to pay for the transfer) of the taxable assets. Where a non-resident enterprise conducts an “indirect transfer” by transferring the taxable assets indirectly by disposing of the equity interests of an overseas holding company, the non-resident enterprise being the transferor, or the transferee, or the PRC entity which directly owns the taxable assets may report to the relevant tax authority such indirect transfer. Using a “substance over form” principle, the PRC tax authority may disregard the existence of the overseas holding company if it lacks a reasonable commercial purpose and was established for the purpose of reducing, avoiding or deferring PRC tax. As a result, gains derived from such indirect transfer may be subject to PRC enterprise income tax, and the transferee or other person who is obligated to pay for the transfer is obligated to withhold the applicable taxes, currently at a tax rate of 10% for the transfer of equity interests in a PRC resident enterprise. Both the transferor and the transferee may be subject to penalties under PRC tax laws if the transferee fails to withhold the taxes and the transferor fails to pay the taxes. However, according to the aforesaid safe harbor rule, the PRC tax would not be applicable to the transfer by any non-resident enterprise of Greenland Shares acquired and sold on public securities markets.

On October 17, 2017, the SAT issued the Public Notice on Issues Relating to Withholding at Source of Income Tax of Non-resident Enterprises (the “SAT Public Notice 37”), which came into effect on December 1, 2017. According to SAT Public Notice 37, where the non-resident enterprise fails to declare its tax payable pursuant to Article 39 of the EIT Law, the tax authority may order it to pay its tax due within required time limits, and the non-resident enterprise shall declare and pay its tax payable within such time limits specified by the tax authority. If the non-resident enterprise voluntarily declares and pays its tax payable before the tax authority orders it to do so, it shall be deemed that such enterprise has paid its tax payable in time.

We face uncertainties on the reporting and consequences of future private equity financing transactions, share exchanges or other transactions involving the transfer of shares in our company by investors that are non-PRC resident enterprises. The PRC tax authorities may pursue such non-resident enterprises with respect to a filing or the transferees with respect to withholding obligation, and request our PRC subsidiaries to assist in the filing. As a result, we and non-resident enterprises in such transactions may become at risk of being subject to filing obligations or being taxed under SAT Public Notice 7 and SAT Public Notice 37, and may be required to expend valuable resources to comply with them or to establish that we and our non-resident enterprises should not be taxed under these regulations, which may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

46

Any failure to comply with PRC environmental laws may require us to incur significant costs.

We carry on our business in an industry that is subject to PRC environmental protection laws and regulations. These laws and regulations require enterprises engaged in manufacturing and construction that may cause environmental waste to adopt effective measures to control such waste. In addition, such enterprises are required to pay fines, or to cease operations entirely under extreme circumstances, should they discharge waste substances. The Chinese government may also change the existing laws or regulations or impose additional or stricter laws or regulations, compliance with which may cause us to incur significant capital expenditures, which we may be unable to pass on to our customers through higher prices for our products.

We must comply with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

We are required to comply with the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which prohibits U.S. companies from making prohibited payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Corruption, extortion, bribery, pay-offs, theft and other fraudulent practices occur from time to time in mainland China. If any of our non-U.S. listed competitors that are not subject to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act engage in these practices, they may receive preferential treatment and secure business from government officials in a way that is unavailable to us. Furthermore, although we inform our personnel that such practices are illegal, we cannot assure you that our employees or other agents will not engage in illegal conduct for which we might be held responsible under U.S. law. If our employees or other agents are found to have engaged in such practices, we could suffer severe penalties.

Because our funds are held in banks that do not provide insurance, the failure of any bank in which we deposit our funds could affect our ability to continue our business operations.

Banks and other financial institutions in the PRC do not provide insurance for funds held on deposit. The Chinese government implemented the bank deposit insurance program on May 1, 2015. Financial institutions are required to pay insurance premiums into a fund that is managed by an agency appointed by the State Council. The program is designed to return bank clients’ deposits if their bank suffers insolvency or bankruptcy. The reimbursement is drawn from the new fund in the case of the deposit being RMB 500,000 or less. However, the implementation and impact of this program are uncertain. As a result, in the event of a bank failure, we may not have access to funds on deposit. Depending upon the amount of money we maintain in a bank that fails, our inability to have access to our cash could impair our operations, and, if we are not able to access funds to pay our suppliers, employees and other creditors, we may be unable to continue our business operations.

If relations between the United States and China worsen, investors may be unwilling to hold or buy the Greenland Shares and our share price may decrease.

At various times during recent years, the United States and China have had significant disagreements over political and economic issues, which may result in or intensify potential conflicts in relation to territorial, regional security and trade disputes. For instance, the United States has expressed a desire to reexamine the trade relationship between China and the United States. Any continuing or worsening slowdown could significantly reduce domestic growth in China and therefore adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

If we become directly subject to the scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity that is historically related to U.S.-listed Chinese companies, we may have to expend significant resources to investigate and resolve the matter which could harm our business operations, stock price and reputation and could result in a loss of your investment in our stock, especially if such matter cannot be addressed and resolved favorably.

In past years, U.S. public companies that have substantially all of their operations in China, particularly companies that have completed reverse merger transactions, have been the subject of intense scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity by investors, financial commentators and regulatory agencies, such as the SEC. Much of the scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity has centered around financial and accounting irregularities and mistakes, a lack of effective internal controls over financial accounting, inadequate corporate governance policies or a lack of adherence thereto and, in many cases, allegations of fraud. As a result of the scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity, the publicly traded stock of many U.S. listed Chinese companies has sharply decreased in value and, in some cases, has become virtually worthless. Many of these companies are now, or were in the recent past, subject to shareholder lawsuits, SEC enforcement actions and are conducting internal and external investigations into the allegations. If we

47

become the subject of any unfavorable allegations, whether such allegations are proven to be true or untrue, we will have to expend significant resources to investigate such allegations and/or defend our Company. This situation will be costly and time consuming and distract our management from growing our Company. If such allegations are not proven to be groundless, our Company and business operations will be severely impacted and your investment in our stock could be rendered worthless.

The disclosures in our reports and other filings with the SEC and our other public pronouncements are not subject to the scrutiny of any regulatory bodies in the PRC. Accordingly, our public disclosure should be reviewed in light of the fact that no governmental agency that is located in China where substantially all of our operations and business are located have conducted any due diligence on our operations or reviewed or cleared any of our disclosures.

We are regulated by the SEC and our reports and other filings with the SEC are subject to SEC review in accordance with the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. Unlike public reporting companies whose operations are located primarily in the United States, however, substantially all of our operations are located in China. Since substantially all of our operations and business take place in China, it may be more difficult for the Staff of the SEC to overcome the geographic and cultural obstacles that are present when reviewing our disclosures. These same obstacles are not present for similar companies whose operations or business take place entirely or primarily in the United States. Furthermore, our SEC reports and other disclosures and public pronouncements are not subject to the review or scrutiny of any PRC regulatory authority. For example, the disclosure in our SEC reports and other filings are not subject to the review of China Securities Regulatory Commission, a PRC regulator that is tasked with oversight of the capital markets in China. Accordingly, you should review our SEC reports, filings and our other public pronouncements with the understanding that no local regulator has done any due diligence on our Company and with the understanding that none of our SEC reports, other filings or any of our other public pronouncements has been reviewed or otherwise been scrutinized by any local regulator.

The audit report included in this proxy statement is prepared by auditors who are not inspected fully by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”), and, as such, our shareholders are deprived of the benefits of such inspection.

As an auditor of companies that are publicly traded in the United States and a firm registered with the PCAOB, BDO China Shu Lun Pan Certified Public Accountants LLP is required under the laws of the United States to undergo regular inspections by the PCAOB. However, because we have substantial operations within the PRC, a jurisdiction where the PCAOB is currently unable to conduct inspections without the approval of the Chinese government authorities, our auditor and its audit work is not currently inspected fully by the PCAOB.

Inspections of other auditors conducted by the PCAOB outside China have at times identified deficiencies in those auditors’ audit procedures and quality control procedures, which may be addressed as part of the inspection process to improve future audit quality. The lack of PCAOB inspections of audit work undertaken in China prevents the PCAOB from regularly evaluating our auditor’s audits and its quality control procedures. As a result, shareholders may be deprived of the benefits of PCAOB inspections, and may lose confidence in our reported financial information and procedures and the quality of our financial statements.

Changes in U.S. and international trade policies, particularly with regard to China, may adversely impact our business and operating results.

The U.S. government has recently made statements and taken certain actions that may lead to potential changes to U.S. and international trade policies, including recently-imposed tariffs affecting certain products manufactured in China. It is unknown whether and to what extent new tariffs (or other new laws or regulations) will be adopted, or the effect that any such actions would have on us or our industry and users. Although cross-border business may not be an area of our focus, if we plan to sell our products internationally in the future, any unfavorable government policies on international trade, such as capital controls or tariffs, may affect the demand for our products and services, impact the competitive position of our products or prevent us from being able to sell products in certain countries. If any new tariffs, legislation and/or regulations are implemented, or if existing trade agreements are renegotiated or, in particular, if the U.S. government takes retaliatory trade actions due to the recent U.S.-China trade tension, such changes could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations.

Risks Related to Greenland

You have limited rights or interests in funds in the Trust Account. To liquidate your investment, therefore, you may be forced to sell your Public Shares, Rights or Warrants, potentially at a loss.

Public Shareholders will be entitled to receive funds from the Trust Account only upon (i) such shareholder’s exercise of Redemption Rights in connection with Greenland’s initial business combination (which will be the Business Combination should it occur) and then only in connection with those Greenland Shares that such shareholder properly elected to redeem, subject to the limitations described herein, (ii) the Redemption of any Public Shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Memorandum and Articles of Association to (A) modify the substance or timing of Greenland’s obligation to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if Greenland does not complete an initial business combination by October 25, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination) or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity and (iii) the Redemption of Public Shares if Greenland is unable to complete an initial business combination by October 25, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination), subject to applicable law and as further described herein. In addition, if Greenland’s plan to redeem its Public Shares if it is unable to complete an initial Business Combination by October 25, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination) is not completed for any reason, compliance with applicable law and the Memorandum and Articles of Association may require that Greenland submit a plan of dissolution to its then-existing shareholders for approval prior to the distribution of the proceeds held in Greenland’s Trust Account. In that case, Public Shareholders may be forced to wait beyond October 25, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination) before they receive funds from the Trust Account. In no other circumstances will a Public Shareholder have any right or interest of any kind in the Trust Account. Accordingly, to liquidate your investment, you may be forced to sell your Public Shares, Rights or Warrants, potentially at a loss.

If you or a “group” of shareholders are deemed to hold in excess of 15% of Greenland Shares, you will lose the ability to redeem all such shares in excess of 15% of Greenland Shares.

The Memorandum and Articles of Association provide that a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from seeking Redemption Rights with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the shares sold in Greenland’s IPO, which is referred to as the “Excess Shares.” However, such shareholders may vote all their shares (including Excess Shares) for or against the Business Combination. Your inability to redeem the Excess Shares will reduce your influence over Greenland’s ability to complete the Business Combination and you could suffer a material loss on your investment in Greenland if you sell Excess Shares in open market transactions. Additionally, you will not receive Redemption distributions with respect to the Excess Shares if Greenland completes the Business Combination. As a result, you will continue to hold that number of shares exceeding 15% and, in order to dispose of such shares, would be required to sell your shares in open market transactions, potentially at a loss.

Greenland’s shareholders may be held liable for claims by third parties against Greenland to the extent of distributions received by them upon Redemption of their shares.

If Greenland is forced to enter into an insolvent liquidation, any distributions received by shareholders could be viewed as an unlawful payment if it was proved that immediately after the distribution was made, either (i) the value of Greenland’s liabilities exceeded the value of its assets, or (ii) Greenland was unable to pay its debts as they fall due. As a result, a liquidator could seek to recover all amounts received by Greenland’s shareholders. Furthermore, Greenland’s directors may be viewed as having breached their fiduciary duties to Greenland or Greenland’s creditors and/or having acted in bad faith, and thereby exposing themselves and Greenland to claims, by paying Public Shareholders from the Trust Account prior to addressing the claims of creditors. There is no assurance that claims will not be brought against Greenland for these reasons. Any directors and officers of Greenland who knowingly and willfully authorized or permitted any distribution to be paid out of the Trust Account while either (i) the value of Greenland’s liabilities exceeded the value of its assets, or (ii) Greenland was unable to pay its debts as they fall due would be personally liable to Greenland to repay to Greenland as much of the distribution as cannot be recovered from Greenland’s shareholders.

Although Greenland seeks to have all vendors, service providers (other than its independent auditors), prospective target businesses or other entities with which it does business execute agreements with Greenland waiving any right,

49

title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account for the benefit of Greenland’s Public Shareholders, as well as distributions to Public Shareholders, such parties may not execute such agreements, or even if they execute such agreements they may not be prevented from bringing claims against the Public Shareholders or claims challenging the enforceability of the waiver.

Greenland believes it may have been considered a passive foreign investment company, or “PFIC,” since its inception, which could result in adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. taxpayers.

If Greenland is determined to be a PFIC for any taxable year (or portion thereof) that is included in the holding period of a U.S. Holder (as defined in “Proposal 1: The Business Combination Proposal —Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations for Shareholders Exercising Redemption Rights”) of Greenland Shares, Warrants or Rights, the U.S. Holder may be subject to increased U.S. federal income tax liability and may be subject to additional reporting requirements. Because Greenland is a blank check company, with no current active business, it believes that it is likely that it has been a PFIC beginning with its initial taxable year ended November 30, 2018. However, pursuant to a start-up exception, a corporation will not be a PFIC for the first taxable year the corporation has gross income (in Greenland’s case, its taxable year ended November 30, 2018), if (1) no predecessor of the corporation was a PFIC; (2) the corporation satisfies the IRS that it will not be a PFIC for either of the first two taxable years following the start-up year (in Greenland’s case, each of its taxable year ending November 30, 2019 and its taxable year ending November 30, 2020); and (3) the corporation is not, in fact, a PFIC for either of those years. A determination as to whether Greenland would satisfy the start-up exception will not be made until after its current taxable year, and there can be no assurance that Greenland will qualify for such exception. For more information, see the discussion in “Proposal 1: The Business Combination Proposal — Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations for Shareholders Exercising Redemption Rights — Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules.” We urge U.S. investors to consult their own tax advisors regarding the possible application of the PFIC rules.

An investor may be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences in the event the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) were to disagree with the U.S. federal income tax consequences described herein.

Greenland has not sought a ruling from the IRS as to any U.S. federal income tax consequences described herein. The IRS may disagree with the descriptions of U.S. federal income tax consequences contained herein, and its determination may be upheld by a court. Any such determination could subject an investor or Greenland to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences that would be different than those described herein. Accordingly, each prospective investor is urged to consult a tax advisor with respect to the specific tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Greenland Shares, Rights and Warrants, including the applicability and effect of state, local or non-U.S. tax laws, as well as U.S. federal tax laws.

If third parties bring claims against Greenland, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the Redemption Price received by Public Shareholders may be less than $10.00 per share.

Greenland’s placing of funds in the Trust Account may not protect those funds from third-party claims against Greenland. Although Greenland seeks to have all vendors, service providers (other than its independent auditors), prospective target businesses or other entities with which it does business execute agreements with Greenland waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account for the benefit of Greenland’s Public Shareholders, such parties may not execute such agreements, or even if they execute such agreements they may not be prevented from bringing claims against the Trust Account, including, but not limited to, fraudulent inducement, breach of fiduciary responsibility or other similar claims, as well as claims challenging the enforceability of the waiver, in each case in order to gain advantage with respect to a claim against Greenland’s assets, including the funds held in the Trust Account. If any third party refuses to execute an agreement waiving such claims to the monies held in the Trust Account, Greenland’s management will perform an analysis of the alternatives available to it and will only enter into an agreement with a third party that has not executed a waiver if management believes that such third party’s engagement would be significantly more beneficial to Greenland than any alternative.

Examples of possible instances where Greenland may engage a third party that refuses to execute a waiver include the engagement of a third party consultant whose particular expertise or skills are believed by management to be significantly superior to those of other consultants that would agree to execute a waiver or in cases where management is unable to find a service provider willing to execute a waiver. In addition, there is no guarantee that such entities will agree to waive any claims they may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations,

50

contracts or agreements with Greenland and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason. Upon Redemption of Greenland’s Public Shares, if Greenland is unable to complete its initial business combination within the prescribed time frame, or upon the exercise of a Redemption Right in connection with the Business Combination, Greenland will be required to provide for payment of claims of creditors that were not waived that may be brought against Greenland within the ten years following Redemption. Accordingly, the Redemption Price received by Public Shareholders could be less than the $10.00 per share initially held in the Trust Account, due to claims of such creditors.

Pursuant to the Insider Letter Agreement, the Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to Greenland if and to the extent any claims by a vendor (other than the independent auditors) for services rendered or products sold to Greenland, or a prospective target business with which Greenland has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below (i) $10.00 per Public Share or (ii) such lesser amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under Greenland’s indemnity of the underwriters of the IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third party claims. Greenland believes that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of Greenland, and Greenland has neither undertaken any efforts to independently verify whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds available to satisfy its indemnification obligations, nor asked the Sponsor to reserve for such obligations. As a result, if any such claims were successfully made against the Trust Account, the funds available for an initial business combination and Redemptions could be reduced to less than $10.00 per Public Share without any meaningful recourse against the Sponsor. In such event, Greenland may not be able to complete an initial business combination, and you would receive such lesser amount per share in connection with any Redemption of your Public Shares.

None of Greenland’s officers or directors will indemnify Greenland for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.

Greenland’s directors may decide not to enforce the indemnification obligations of the Sponsor under the Insider Letter Agreement, resulting in a reduction in the amount of funds in the Trust Account available for distribution to Greenland’s Public Shareholders.

In the event that the proceeds in the Trust Account are reduced below the lesser of (i) $10.00 per Public Share or (ii) such lesser amount per share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, and the Sponsor asserts that it is unable to satisfy its obligations or that it has no indemnification obligations related to a particular claim, Greenland’s independent directors would determine whether to take legal action against the Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations. While Greenland currently expects that its independent directors would take legal action on behalf of Greenland against the Sponsor to enforce their indemnification obligations to Greenland, it is possible that Greenland’s independent directors in exercising their business judgment may choose not to do so in any particular instance. If Greenland’s independent directors choose not to enforce these indemnification obligations, there may be less funds in the Trust Account available for distribution to Greenland’s Public Shareholders.

If, after Greenland distributes the proceeds in the Trust Account to its Public Shareholders, Greenland is placed into insolvent liquidation, a liquidator may seek to recover such proceeds and the directors of the Greenland may also be viewed as having breached their duties, thereby exposing the directors to claims against them by the liquidator of Greenland which may result in the directors being required to contribute to assets of Greenland available to meet its liabilities.

If, after Greenland distributes the proceeds in the Trust Account to its Public Shareholders, Greenland is placed into insolvent liquidation, any distributions received by shareholders could be become vulnerable to being “clawed back” or recovered by Greenland under applicable companies laws or insolvency laws. As a result, a liquidator of Greenland could seek to recover all amounts received by Greenland’s shareholders. In addition, the directors of Greenland may be viewed as having breached their duties to Greenland and to its creditors (with the onset of insolvency the duties of a director of a BVI company become owed to the company’s creditors rather than to the company or its shareholders) and/or having acted in bad faith, thereby exposing the directors to potential liability to personally contribute, in such amounts as the court may determine or approve, to the assets of Greenland available to meet the claims of its creditors.

51

Changes in laws or regulations, or a failure to comply with any laws and regulations, may adversely affect the business, investments and results of operations of Greenland.

Greenland is subject to laws and regulations enacted by national, regional and local governments. In particular, Greenland is required to comply with certain SEC and other legal requirements. Compliance with, and monitoring of, applicable laws and regulations may be difficult, time consuming and costly. Those laws and regulations and their interpretation and application may also change from time to time and those changes could have a material adverse effect on the business, investments and results of operations of Greenland. In addition, a failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations, as interpreted and applied, could have a material adverse effect on Greenland’s business and results of operations.

The exercise price for the Warrants is higher than in many similar blank check company offerings, and, accordingly, the Warrants are more likely to expire worthless.

The exercise price of the Warrants is higher than is typical in many similar blank check company offerings. Historically, the exercise price of a public warrant was generally a fraction of the purchase price of the units issued in an initial public offering. The exercise price for the Warrants is $11.50 per share. As a result, the Warrants are less likely to ever be in the money and more likely to expire worthless.

The Insider Letter Agreement may be amended without shareholder approval.

The Insider Letter Agreement contains provisions relating to transfer restrictions of Greenland’s Founder Shares and Private Placement Units, indemnification of the Trust Account, waiver of Redemption Rights and participation in liquidation distributions from the Trust Account. The Insider Letter Agreement may be amended without shareholder approval. While Greenland does not expect the Greenland Board to approve any amendment to this agreement prior to the Business Combination, it may be possible that the Greenland Board, in exercising its business judgment and subject to its fiduciary duties and any restrictions under the Share Exchange Agreement, chooses to approve one or more amendments to such agreement. Any such amendment may have an adverse effect on the value of an investment in Greenland’s securities.

Greenland’s founder and chief executive officer controls a substantial interest in Greenland and thus may exert a substantial influence on actions requiring a shareholder vote, potentially in a manner that you do not support.

Greenland’s founder and chief executive officer controls the Sponsor and has the ability to vote the Sponsor’s Founder Shares and Greenland Shares underlying the Private Placement Units, constituting approximately 23.5% of Greenland’s issued and outstanding Greenland Shares in the aggregate. If Greenland’s Sponsor, its founder and chief executive officer, and any other Greenland directors or officers (or their affiliates) purchase any additional Greenland Shares in the aftermarket or in privately negotiated transactions, this would increase their control of Greenland. Neither Greenland’s Sponsor nor, to Greenland’s knowledge, any of Greenland’s officers or directors, have any current intention to purchase additional securities. Factors that would be considered in making such additional purchases would include consideration of the current trading price of Greenland Shares. Greenland will not hold an annual meeting to elect new directors prior to the completion of the Business Combination, in which case all of the current directors will continue in office until at least the completion of the Business Combination. Accordingly, Greenland’s Sponsor will continue to exert control at least until the completion of the Business Combination. For more information, see the risk factor entitled “— Risks Related to the Business Combination — Some of Greenland’s officers and directors may have conflicts of interest that may influence or have influenced them to support or approve the Business Combination without regard to your interests or in determining whether Zhongchai Holding is appropriate for Greenland’s initial business combination.”

Greenland’s Warrants and Rights may have an adverse effect on the market price of the Greenland Shares.

Greenland issued Warrants to purchase 2,200,000 Greenland Shares, and Rights to receive 440,000 Greenland Shares, as part of the Units offered in its IPO, and, simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, Greenland issued in a private placement an aggregate of 282,000 Private Placement Units to the Sponsor and Chardan, each such Unit consisting of one Greenland Share, one Private Placement Right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one Greenland Share upon the consummation of our initial business combination and one Private Placement Warrant, each exercisable to purchase one-half of one Greenland Share at $11.50 per whole share. Such Private Placement Warrants, when exercised, and Private Placement Rights, when converted, will increase the number of issued and outstanding Greenland Shares and may reduce the market price of the Greenland Shares.

52

Your unexpired Warrants may be redeemed prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to you, thereby making your Warrants worthless.

Outstanding Warrants may be redeemed at any time after they become exercisable and prior to their expiration, at a price of $0.01 per Warrant, provided that the last reported sales price of the Greenland Shares equals or exceeds $16.50 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading-day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date the Company sends the notice of redemption to the Warrant holders. If and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may not exercise its redemption rights if the issuance of Greenland Shares upon exercise of the Warrants is not exempt from registration or qualification under applicable state blue sky laws or Greenland is unable to effect such registration or qualification, subject to the Company’s obligation in such case to use its best efforts to register or qualify the Greenland Shares under the blue sky laws of the state of residence in those states in which the Warrants were initially offered by Greenland in its IPO. Redemption of the outstanding Warrants could force you (i) to exercise your Warrants and pay the exercise price at a time when it may be disadvantageous for you to do so, (ii) to sell your Warrants at the then-current market price when you might otherwise wish to hold your Warrants or (iii) to accept the nominal redemption price which, at the time the outstanding Warrants are called for redemption, is likely to be substantially less than the market value of your Warrants. None of the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company so long as they are held by their initial purchasers — the Sponsor and Chardan — or their permitted transferees.

Greenland is an emerging growth company within the meaning of the Securities Act and Greenland has taken advantage of certain exemptions from disclosure requirements available to emerging growth companies; this could make the Company’s securities less attractive to investors and may make it more difficult to compare the Company’s performance with other public companies.

Greenland is an “emerging growth company” within the meaning of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act and has taken advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in Greenland’s periodic reports and proxy statements and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on certain executive compensation matters. As a result, Greenland’s shareholders may not have access to certain information they may deem important. Greenland may be an emerging growth company for up to five years from the IPO, although circumstances could cause the loss of that status earlier, including if the market value of the Greenland Shares held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of any June 30 (following the change of the fiscal year end of Greenland to December 31 in connection with the Closing) before that time, in which case the Company would no longer be an emerging growth company as of the following December 31 (following the change of the fiscal year end of Greenland to December 31 in connection with the Closing). Greenland cannot predict whether investors will find its securities less attractive because Greenland relies on these exemptions. If some investors find the securities less attractive as a result of reliance on these exemptions, the trading prices of the Company’s securities may be lower than they otherwise would be, there may be a less active trading market for the Company’s securities and the trading prices of the securities may be more volatile.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. Greenland has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period. Accordingly, when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, Greenland, as an emerging growth company, will adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard, unless early adoption is permitted by the standard. This may make comparison of Greenland’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

53

Compliance obligations under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may make it more difficult for Greenland to effectuate the Business Combination, require substantial financial and management resources and increase the time and costs of completing an acquisition.

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires that Greenland evaluate and report on its system of internal controls beginning with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2019. Following the initial Business Combination, if the Company is deemed to be a large accelerated filer or an accelerated filer, it will be required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirement on its internal control over financial reporting. Further, for as long as the Company remains an emerging growth company, it will not be required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirement on its internal control over financial reporting. Following the Business Combination, the Company will be required to assure that it is in compliance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act regarding adequacy of its internal controls. The need to develop the internal control system to achieve compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may increase the time and costs necessary to complete the Business Combination as well as impose obligations of the Company following the Business Combination.

54

SPECIAL MEETING

Date, Time and Place of the Special Meeting

The Special Meeting of Greenland shareholders will be held at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on October 17, 2019, at the offices of Ellenoff Grossman & Schole LLP, at 1345 Avenue of the Americas, 11th Floor, New York, New York 10105.

Purpose of the Special Meeting

At the Special Meeting, Greenland is asking holders of its Greenland Shares:

•        To consider and vote upon a proposal to adopt and approve the Business Combination. A copy of the Share Exchange Agreement is attached to this proxy statement as Annex A;

•        To consider and vote upon the approval of the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan. A copy of the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan is attached to this proxy statement as Annex B;

•        To consider and vote upon the proposal to elect five directors to serve staggered terms on the Greenland Board until the 2020 and 2021 annual meeting of shareholders, respectively, and until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified;

•        To consider and vote upon the Articles Amendment Proposal. The full text of the proposed amendment to the Memorandum and Articles of Association is attached to this proxy statement as Annex C; and

•        To consider and vote upon the Adjournment Proposal, if it is presented at the Special Meeting.

Recommendation of the Greenland Board with Respect to the Proposals

The Greenland Board has unanimously determined that each of the Proposals is fair to and in the best interests of Greenland and its shareholders and has unanimously approved such Proposals. The Greenland Board unanimously recommends that shareholders:

•        Vote “FOR” the Business Combination Proposal;

•        Vote “FOR” the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal;

•        Vote “FOR” the election of each of the directors pursuant to the Director Election Proposal;

•        Vote “FOR” the Articles Amendment Proposal; and

•        Vote “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal, if it is presented at the Special Meeting.

Record Date; Outstanding Shares; Shareholders Entitled to Vote

Greenland has fixed the close of business on September 18, 2019, as the Record Date for determining the Greenland shareholders entitled to notice of and to attend and vote at the Special Meeting. As of the close of business on such date, there were 5,782,000 Greenland Shares outstanding and entitled to vote.

Quorum and Vote of Shareholders

A quorum of shareholders is necessary to transact business at the Special Meeting. The presence in person or by proxy or, if a corporation or other non-natural person, by its duly authorized representative, of the holders of a majority of the Greenland Shares constitutes a quorum. The Business Combination Proposal, the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the Director Election Proposal, the Articles Amendment Proposal (as it is in conjunction with the consummation of the Business Combination) and the Adjournment Proposal must be approved by the holders of a majority of the Greenland Shares that are present and vote at the Special Meeting.

55

Voting Your Shares

Each Greenland Share that you own in your name entitles you to one vote. If you are a record owner of your shares, there are two ways to vote your Greenland Shares at the Special Meeting:

You Can Vote By Signing and Returning the Enclosed Proxy Card.    If you vote by proxy card, your “proxy,” whose name is listed on the proxy card, will vote your shares as you instruct on the proxy card. If you sign and return the proxy card but do not give instructions on how to vote your shares, your shares will be voted as recommended by the Greenland Board “FOR” the Business Combination Proposal, the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the election of each of the director nominees pursuant to the Director Election Proposal, the Articles Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal (if presented). Votes received after a matter has been voted upon at the Special Meeting will not be counted.

You Can Attend the Special Meeting and Vote in Person.    When you arrive, you will receive a ballot that you may use to cast your vote.

If your shares are held in “street name” or are in a margin or similar account, you should contact your broker to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. If you wish to attend the Special Meeting and vote in person and your shares are held in “street name,” you must obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank or nominee. That is the only way Greenland can be sure that the broker, bank or nominee has not already voted your shares.

Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes

Abstentions and broker non-votes, while considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum, are not treated as votes cast and will have no effect on the Business Combination Proposal, the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the Director Election Proposal, the Articles Amendment Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal (if presented).

Share Ownership of and Voting by Greenland Sponsor, Directors and Officers

The Sponsor owns 1,100,000 Founder Shares and 260,000 Private Placement Units. Pursuant to the Insider Letter Agreement, (i) the 1,100,000 Founder Shares (ii) the Greenland Shares underlying the 260,000 Private Placement Units owned by the Sponsor and (iii) any other Greenland Shares owned by the Sponsor or Greenland’s officers and directors, will be voted in favor of the Business Combination Proposal at the Special Meeting. Under the Share Exchange Agreement, Greenland agreed to enforce the voting obligations contained in the Insider Letter Agreement against the Sponsor and the Greenland officers and directors.

Revoking Your Proxy; Changing Your Vote

If you are a record owner of your shares and you give a proxy, you may change or revoke it at any time before it is exercised by doing any one of the following:

•        you may send another proxy card with a later date;

•        you may notify Greenland’s secretary in writing before the Special Meeting that you have revoked your proxy; or

•        you may attend the Special Meeting, revoke your proxy and vote in person as described above.

If your shares are held in “street name” or are in a margin or similar account, you should contact your broker for information on how to change or revoke your voting instructions.

Redemption Rights

Public Shareholders may seek to have their shares redeemed by Greenland, regardless of whether they vote for or against the Business Combination or any other Proposal and whether they held Greenland Shares as of the Record Date or acquired them after the Record Date. Any Public Shareholder who holds Greenland Shares on or before October 15, 2019 (two (2) business days before the Special Meeting) will have the right to demand that his or her shares be redeemed for a full pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, less

56

any taxes then due but not yet paid. For illustrative purposes, based on funds in the Trust Account of approximately $45.5 million on August 31, 2019 and including anticipated additional interest through the closing of the Business Combination (assuming interest accrues at recent rates and no additional tax payments are made out of the Trust Account), the estimated per share redemption price is expected to be approximately $10.36. A Public Shareholder that has properly tendered his or her shares for Redemption will be entitled to receive his or her pro rata portion of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account in cash for such shares only if the Business Combination is completed. If the Business Combination is not completed, the Redemptions will be cancelled and the tendered shares will be returned to the relevant Public Shareholders as appropriate.

Greenland shareholders who seek to redeem their Public Shares must demand Redemption no later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern time on October 15, 2019 (two (2) business days before the Special Meeting) by (A) submitting a written request to the Transfer Agent that Greenland redeem such holder’s Public Shares for cash; (B) affirmatively certifying in such request to the Transfer Agent if such holder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13d-3 of the Exchange Act) with any other shareholder with respect to Greenland Shares and (C) delivering their Greenland Shares, either physically or electronically using The Depository Trust Company’s DWAC System, at the holder’s option, to the Transfer Agent prior to the Special Meeting. If you hold the shares in street name, you will have to coordinate with your broker to have your shares certificated or delivered electronically. Certificates that have not been tendered to the Transfer Agent (either physically or electronically) in accordance with these procedures will not be redeemed for cash. There is a nominal cost associated with this tendering process and the act of certificating the shares or delivering them through the DWAC system. The Transfer Agent will typically charge the tendering broker a nominal fee and it would be up to the broker whether or not to pass this cost on to the redeeming shareholder. In the event the Business Combination is not completed, this may result in an additional cost to shareholders for the return of their shares.

Any request for Redemption, once made by a Public Shareholder, may be withdrawn at any time up to the time the vote is taken with respect to the Business Combination Proposal at the Special Meeting. In addition, if you deliver your shares for Redemption to Greenland’s Transfer Agent and later decide prior to the Special Meeting not to elect Redemption, you may request that Greenland’s Transfer Agent return the shares (physically or electronically). You may make such request by contacting Greenland’s Transfer Agent at the phone number or address listed in this proxy statement.

A Public Shareholder will be entitled to receive cash for these shares only if the shareholder properly demands Redemption as described above and the Business Combination is completed. If a Public Shareholder properly seeks Redemption and the Business Combination is completed, Greenland will redeem these shares for cash and the holder will no longer own these shares following the Business Combination. If the Business Combination is not completed for any reason, then the Public Shareholders who exercised their Redemption Rights will not be entitled to receive cash for their shares. In such case, Greenland will promptly return any shares delivered by the Public Shareholders. Greenland and Zhongchai Holding will not complete the Business Combination if, upon the Closing and after payment of all transaction and other expenses payable by Greenland and payments for Redemptions, Greenland does not have net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001.

The closing price of Greenland Shares on September 9, 2019 was $10.37. The cash held in the Trust Account as of August 31, 2019 was approximately $10.36 per Public Share. Prior to exercising Redemption Rights, shareholders should verify the market price of Greenland Shares as they may receive higher proceeds from the sale of their shares in the public market than from exercising their Redemption Rights if the market price per share is higher than the Redemption price. Greenland cannot assure its shareholders that they will be able to sell their Greenland Shares in the open market, even if the market price per share is higher than the Redemption Price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in its securities when its shareholders wish to sell their shares. A Public Shareholder who properly exercises its Redemption Rights pursuant to the procedures set forth herein will be entitled to receive a full pro rata portion of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, less any amounts necessary to pay Greenland’s taxes.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of his, her, its or any other person with whom he, she or it is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) will be restricted from seeking Redemption Rights with respect to 15% or more of Greenland Shares. Accordingly, any shares held by a Public Shareholder or “group” in excess of such 15% cap will not be redeemed by Greenland.

Pursuant to the Insider Letter Agreement, the Greenland Sponsor, officers or directors have waived all of their Redemption Rights and will not have Redemption Rights with respect to any Greenland Shares owned by them, directly or indirectly.

57

Appraisal Rights

Greenland’s shareholders do not have appraisal rights under the Companies Act in connection with the Business Combination or the other Proposals.

Proxy Solicitation

Greenland is soliciting proxies on behalf of the Greenland Board. This solicitation is being made by mail but also may be made by telephone or in person. Greenland and its directors, officers and employees may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone or by other electronic means. Greenland will bear all of the costs of the solicitation, which Greenland estimates will be approximately $7,500 plus expenses, which fee also includes fees for acting as the inspector of elections at the Special Meeting. Greenland has engaged Advantage Proxy as proxy solicitor to assist in the solicitation of proxies.

Greenland will ask banks, brokers and other institutions, nominees and fiduciaries to forward the proxy materials to their principals and to obtain their authority to execute proxies and voting instructions. Greenland will reimburse them for their reasonable expenses.

If a shareholder grants a proxy, it may still vote its shares in person if it revokes its proxy before the Special Meeting. A shareholder may also change its vote by submitting a later-dated proxy as described in the section entitled “— Revoking Your Proxy; Changing Your Vote.”

Householding

The SEC has adopted a rule concerning the delivery of annual reports and proxy statements. It permits Greenland, with your permission, to send a single notice of meeting and, to the extent requested, a single copy of this proxy statement to any household at which two or more Greenland shareholders reside if they appear to be members of the same family. This rule is called “householding,” and its purpose is to help reduce printing and mailing costs of proxy materials.

A number of brokerage firms have instituted householding for shares held in “street name.” If you and members of your household have multiple accounts holding Greenland Shares, you may have received a householding notification from your broker. Please contact your broker directly if you have questions, require additional copies of this proxy statement or wish to revoke your decision to household. These options are available to you at any time.

PROPOSAL 1: THE BUSINESS COMBINATION PROPOSAL

Greenland is asking its shareholders to approve the Share Exchange Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Business Combination. Shareholders should carefully read this proxy statement in its entirety for more detailed information concerning the Share Exchange Agreement, which is attached as Annex A to this proxy statement and is incorporated into this proxy statement by reference. Please see the subsection entitled “The Share Exchange Agreement” below for additional information and a summary of certain terms of the Share Exchange Agreement. You are urged to read the Share Exchange Agreement in its entirety before voting on this Proposal.

We may complete the Business Combination only if it is approved by holders of a majority of the Greenland Shares that are present and vote at the Special Meeting. If any of the Business Combination Proposal, the Articles Amendment Proposal or the Director Election Proposal fails to receive the required Greenland shareholder approval, the Business Combination will not be completed.

The Share Exchange Agreement

This section describes the material provisions of the Share Exchange Agreement, but does not purport to describe all of the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement. The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Share Exchange Agreement and the related agreements. Greenland’s shareholders, Right holders, Warrant holders and other interested parties are urged to read such agreement in its entirety because it is the primary legal document that governs the Business Combination. Unless otherwise defined herein, the capitalized terms used in this section “Proposal 1: The Business Combination Proposal — The Share Exchange Agreement” are defined in the Share Exchange Agreement.

The Share Exchange Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants that the respective parties made to each other as of the date of the Share Exchange Agreement or other specific dates, including, in some cases, as of the Closing. The assertions embodied in those representations, warranties and covenants were made for purposes of the contract among the respective parties and are subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with negotiating the Share Exchange Agreement. The representations, warranties and covenants in the Share Exchange Agreement are also modified in important part by the disclosure schedules attached thereto which are not filed publicly and which are subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from that generally applicable to shareholders. The disclosure schedules were used for the purpose of allocating risk among the parties rather than establishing matters as facts. We do not believe that the disclosure schedules contain information that is material to an investment decision.

To the extent that specific material facts exist that contradict the representations, warranties, and covenants in the Share Exchange Agreement, we will provide corrective disclosure in this proxy statement. Furthermore, to the extent that subsequent information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties, and covenants in the Share Exchange Agreement may or may not be fully reflected in our public disclosures, our public disclosures will include any material information necessary to provide Greenland’s shareholders a materially complete understanding of the Share Exchange Agreement disclosures.

General

On July 12, 2019, we entered into the Share Exchange Agreement with Zhongchai Holding, the Sponsor, in the capacity thereunder as the Purchaser Representative, and the Zhongchai Equity Holder, pursuant to which, among other things and subject to the terms and conditions contained therein, we will consummate the acquisition of all of the outstanding capital stock of Zhongchai Holding through a share exchange, with Zhongchai Holding becoming a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

Consideration

Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, we will issue 7,500,000 Exchange Shares to the Zhongchai Equity Holder.

Escrow Shares

Ten percent (10%) of the Exchange Shares (“Escrow Shares”) will be deposited in escrow at the Closing for a period of eighteen (18) months (subject to further retention in the escrow account to the extent that there are pending indemnification claims brought prior to such time) with a mutually agreed escrow agent. During such time, the Escrow Shares will be subject to forfeiture back to us (along with dividends and other earnings otherwise payable with respect to such Escrow Shares) in the event that the Purchaser Representative successfully brings an indemnification claim under the Share Exchange Agreement on behalf of our shareholders. The Zhongchai Equity Holder will be entitled to vote the Escrow Shares while they are held in escrow.

Material Adverse Effect

Many of the representations and warranties are qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect with respect to Zhongchai Holding and the Target Companies or the Company.

“Material Adverse Effect” as used in the Share Exchange Agreement means any fact, event, occurrence, change or effect that has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect upon (a) the business, assets, liabilities, results of operations, prospects or condition (financial or otherwise) of such person and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (b) the ability of such person or any of its subsidiaries on a timely basis to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement or the other transaction documents to which it is a party or bound or to perform its obligations thereunder, in each case subject to certain customary exclusions, including:

(vi)   with respect to Greenland, the consummation and effects of the Redemption.

The exceptions contained in items (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above apply only if they do not affect a person and its subsidiaries in a disproportionate manner relative to other persons operating in the industries in which such person or any of its subsidiaries primarily conducts its business.

For a complete definition of “Material Adverse Effect,” please refer to the Share Exchange Agreement, attached to this proxy statement as Annex A.

Survival and Indemnification

The representations and warranties made by Zhongchai Holding and the Zhongchai Equity Holder in the Share Exchange Agreement generally survive for a period of eighteen (18) months after the Closing, with certain representations relating to taxes, benefit plans, environmental matters and information supplied surviving until 60 days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations and certain fundamental representations relating

63

to due organization and good standing, authorization and binding effect, capitalization and ownership of Zhongchai Holding shares, subsidiaries, finders and investment bankers and independent investigation surviving indefinitely. Claims against Zhongchai Holding or the Zhongchai Equity Holder based on fraud, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation also survive indefinitely. The covenants and agreements of Zhongchai Holding and the Zhongchai Equity Holder survive until fully performed.

Our representations and warranties also generally survive for a period of eighteen (18) months after the Closing, with certain representations relating to due organization and good standing, authorization and binding effect, capitalization, finders and brokers and independent investigation, as well as claims against us based on fraud, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation, surviving indefinitely. Our covenants and agreements to be performed after the Closing survive until fully performed.

From and after the Closing, the Zhongchai Equity Holder, and its successors and assigns, is required to indemnify us and our affiliates and our respective officers, directors, managers, employees, successors and permitted assigns (each referred to with respect to claims as a purchaser indemnitee) from and against any losses from (a) the breach of any of Zhongchai Holding’s or the Zhongchai Equity Holder’s respective representations and warranties, (b) the breach of any of Zhongchai Holding’s or the Zhongchai Equity Holder’s respective covenants or our post-Closing covenants, (c) any and all pre-Closing tax liabilities of Zhongchai Holding, (d) any actions by persons who were holders of equity securities (including options, warrants, convertible securities or other rights) of any Zhongchai Holding entity prior to the Closing arising out of the sale, purchase, termination, cancellation, expiration, redemption or conversion of any such securities or (e) any indebtedness and/or transaction expenses of Zhongchai Holding as of the Closing that were not included in Zhongchai Holding’s financial statements. Recourse by Greenland or the Sponsor may be obtained against the Escrow Shares.

In any indemnification claims, the Purchaser Representative will represent the Purchaser and the purchaser indemnitees.

All indemnification claims for breaches of representations and warranties, other than claims based on fraud, willful misconduct, intentional misrepresentation or the special representations, shall be subject to an aggregate basket of $300,000 before any indemnification claims can be made, at which point all claims will be paid back to the first dollar.

Covenants of the Parties

General

Each party agreed in the Share Exchange Agreement to use its reasonable best efforts to effect the Closing. The Share Exchange Agreement also contains certain customary covenants by each of the parties during the period between the signing of the Share Exchange Agreement and the earlier of the Closing or the termination of the Share Exchange Agreement in accordance with its terms, including covenants relating to the conduct of the parties’ respective businesses, provision of information, notification of certain matters, obligations with respect to governmental consents and compliance with laws. Greenland also agreed to use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the listing of its securities on Nasdaq.

Shareholder Approval

Unless the Share Exchange Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, we have agreed to call a special meeting of our shareholders, for the purpose of such shareholders considering and voting on the approval and adoption of the Share Exchange Agreement and any other matters required to be voted upon by such shareholders in connection with the transactions contemplated in the Share Exchange Agreement (including the Business Combination). We may delay, postpone or adjourn such special meeting of our shareholders if, as of the time for which the shareholders meeting is originally scheduled, there are insufficient Greenland Shares represented (either in person or by proxy) and voting to adopt the Share Exchange Agreement, or to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the special meeting. The Greenland Board has, by a unanimous vote, approved the Business Combination and directed that the Share Exchange Agreement and the Business Combination be submitted to our shareholders for their consideration.

Regulatory Matters

The parties to the Share Exchange Agreement are also required to make, or cause to be made, as promptly as practicable, any filings necessary to obtain any antitrust or other necessary regulatory approvals.

64

Neither Greenland nor Zhongchai Holding is aware of any material regulatory approvals or actions that are required for completion of the Business Combination. It is presently contemplated that if any such additional regulatory approvals or actions are required, those approvals or actions will be sought. There can be no assurance, however, that any additional approvals or actions will be obtained.

Additional Covenants and Agreements

•        Each of Greenland and Zhongchai Holding shall give the other party and its representatives access to records and information pertaining to it and its subsidiaries.

•        The parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all necessary approvals from governmental agencies and other third parties.

65

•        Each party agreed to the use of the trust funds after the Closing.

•        Greenland and Zhongchai Holding agreed during the Interim Period to consult and adopt as of the Closing corporate and operational policies for the Company following the Closing.

Conditions to Closing of the Business Combination

The Closing is expected to take place on the second business day following the day on which the last of the conditions to the Closing have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the fulfillment or waiver of those conditions) or such other date as may be mutually agreed to by Greenland and Zhongchai Holding. Assuming timely satisfaction of the necessary Closing conditions, Greenland and Zhongchai Holding currently expect the Closing to occur promptly after the Special Meeting is concluded.

The obligations of each party to consummate the Closing are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary conditions and Closing deliverables, including, but not limited to, (1) our shareholders having approved the Share Exchange Agreement and the related transactions (including the other Proposals in this proxy statement) by the requisite vote at the Special Meeting, (2) any required governmental and specified third party approvals having been obtained and any antitrust waiting periods expired or terminated, (3) no law or order preventing the transactions, (4) no pending third-party litigation to enjoin or otherwise restrict the consummation of the Closing, (5) appointment of five directors to the Greenland Board, (6) Greenland having net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon the Closing, after giving effect to any Redemptions of our shareholders, (7) the other party’s representations and warranties being true and correct as of the date of the Share Exchange Agreement and as of the Closing, except as has not had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the other party, (8) the other party’s compliance with its covenants under the Share Exchange Agreement in all material respects, (9) no Material Adverse Effect shall have occurred with respect to the other party (or with respect to Zhongchai Holding, its subsidiaries) since the date of the Share Exchange Agreement and (10) receipt of the Related Agreements and other ancillary documents specified in the Share Exchange Agreement signed by the other parties, including the Escrow Agreement, the Non-Competition Agreements, the Lock-up Agreements and the Registration Rights Agreement.

The obligation of Greenland to consummate the Closing is subject to satisfaction or waiver of certain additional conditions specified in the Share Exchange Agreement, including, but not limited to: (1) certain specified employees of Zhongchai Holding having entered into employment agreements in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Greenland and (2) Greenland having received a legal opinion from Zhongchai Holding’s counsel reasonably satisfactory to Greenland.

We cannot provide assurance as to when or if all of the conditions to the Business Combination will be satisfied or waived by the appropriate party. As of the date of this proxy statement, we have no reason to believe that any of these conditions will not be satisfied.

Termination

Greenland and Zhongchai Holding may terminate the Share Exchange Agreement by mutual written consent at any time before the Closing, whether before or after Greenland’s shareholders have voted in favor the Share Exchange Agreement.

In addition, a party may terminate the Share Exchange Agreement at any time before the Closing by written notice to the other party under the following circumstances:

•        by either Greenland or Zhongchai Holding if certain Closing conditions have not been satisfied or waived by December 31, 2019 (the “Outside Date”) so long as no breach of the Share Exchange Agreement by such terminating party or its affiliates (or, with respect to Zhongchai Holding, the Zhongchai Equity Holder) caused the Closing not to have occurred by such date;

•        by either Greenland or Zhongchai Holding if any governmental authority of competent jurisdiction has issued a final and non-appealable order or taken any other action permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement, so long as no breach of the Share Exchange Agreement by such terminating party or its affiliates (or, with respect to Zhongchai Holding, the Zhongchai Equity Holder) was a substantial cause of, or substantially resulted in, such action by such governmental authority;

66

•        by Zhongchai Holding for a breach of Greenland’s representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in the Share Exchange Agreement which would result in the related Closing condition not being met and such breach is incapable of cure or is not cured within the earlier of 20 days after notice of such breach or the Outside Date, so long as Zhongchai Holding or the Zhongchai Equity Holder is not then in material uncured breach;

•        by Greenland for a breach of Zhongchai Holding’s or the Zhongchai Equity Holder’s representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in the Share Exchange Agreement which would result in the related Closing condition not being met and such breach is incapable of cure or is not cured within the earlier of 20 days after notice of such breach or the Outside Date, so long as Greenland is not then in material uncured breach;

•        by Greenland if there shall have been a Material Adverse Effect on Zhongchai Holding or its subsidiaries which is uncured and continuing; or

•        by Greenland or Zhongchai Holding if the requisite shareholder vote in favor of the Share Exchange Agreement and the Business Combination is not obtained at the Special Meeting.

If the Share Exchange Agreement is terminated, all further obligations of the parties under the Share Exchange Agreement will terminate and will be of no further force and effect (except that certain obligations related to public announcements, confidentiality, expenses, termination fees, waiver against trust, and certain general provisions will continue in effect), and neither Greenland nor Zhongchai Holding will have any further liability to any other party thereto except for liability for any fraud claims or the right of Greenland to seek specific performance or other injunctive relief in lieu of terminating the Share Exchange Agreement.

If the Share Exchange Agreement is validly terminated by Greenland for Zhongchai Holding’s or the Zhongchai Equity Holder’s material breach, Zhongchai Holding shall pay to Greenland as liquidated damages a termination fee equal to $500,000, plus the transaction expenses incurred by or on behalf of Greenland or its affiliates, provided that Zhongchai Holding and the Zhongchai Equity Holder will not be relieved of liability for any fraud claims or willful breach of the Share Exchange Agreement prior to such termination.

Except as expressly provided by the Share Exchange Agreement, each party will pay its own transaction expenses.

Related Agreements

This section describes the material provisions of certain additional agreements entered into pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement (the “Related Agreements”) but does not purport to describe all of the terms thereof. The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of each of the Related Agreements. Copies of the Related Agreements have been filed with the SEC as exhibits to our current report on Form 8-K filed on July 12, 2019. Shareholders and other interested parties are urged to read such Related Agreements in their entirety.

Registration Rights Agreement

On July 12, 2019, Greenland entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Zhongchai Equity Holder and the Purchaser Representative (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Zhongchai Equity Holder will hold registration rights that obligate us to register for resale under the Securities Act, all or any portion of the Exchange Shares so long as such shares are not then restricted under the Lock-Up Agreement (as defined below). Zhongchai Equity Holder will be entitled to make a written demand for registration under the Securities Act of all or part of the their Exchange Shares (up to a maximum of three demands in total), so long as such shares are not then restricted under the Lock-Up Agreement. Subject to certain exceptions, if any time after the Closing, Greenland proposes to file a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to its securities, under the Registration Rights Agreement, Greenland shall give notice to the Zhongchai Equity Holder as to the proposed filing and offer the Zhongchai Equity Holder an opportunity to register the sale of such number of Exchange Shares as requested by the Zhongchai Equity Holder in writing. In addition, subject to certain exceptions, Zhongchai Equity Holder will be entitled under the Registration Rights Agreement to request in writing that Greenland register the resale of any or all of such Exchange Shares on Form S-3 and any similar short-form registration that may be available at such time.

67

Under the Registration Rights Agreement, Greenland agreed to indemnify the Zhongchai Equity Holder and certain persons or entities related to the Zhongchai Equity Holder, such as their officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives, against any losses or damages resulting from any untrue statement or omission of a material fact in any registration statement or prospectus pursuant to which they sell Exchange Shares, unless such liability arose from their misstatement or omission, and the Zhongchai Equity Holder including registrable securities in any registration statement or prospectus agreed to indemnify Greenland and certain persons or entities related to Greenland such as its officers and directors and underwriters against all losses caused by their misstatements or omissions in those documents.

Lock-Up Agreement

On July 12, 2019, Zhongchai Equity Holder entered into a Lock-Up Agreement with Greenland and the Purchaser Representative (the “Lock-Up Agreement”), with respect to the Exchange Shares received in the Business Combination. In such Lock-Up Agreement, the Zhongchai Equity Holder has agreed that the Zhongchai Equity Holder will not, from the Closing until the first anniversary of the Closing (or if earlier, the date on which Greenland consummates a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction with an unaffiliated third party that results in all of Greenland’s shareholders having the right to exchange either equity holdings in us for cash, securities or other property), (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act with respect to any of the Exchange Shares, (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any of the Exchange Shares, in cash or otherwise, or (iii) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (i) or (ii). The Zhongchai Equity Holder has further agreed that the Escrow Shares will continue to be subject to such transfer restrictions until they are released from the escrow account. However, the Zhongchai Equity Holder will be allowed to transfer any of the Exchange Shares (other than the Escrow Shares while they are held in the escrow account) by gift, will or intestate succession upon death of the Zhongchai Equity Holder, pursuant to a court order or settlement agreement in connection with a divorce, or to any affiliate, to any immediately family members, trusts for the benefit of the Zhongchai Equity Holder or its immediately family members, if the Zhongchai Equity Holder is a trust, to the trustor or trust beneficiary, or as a liquidating distribution to limited partners or other equity holders, provided in each such case that the transferee thereof agrees to be bound by the restrictions set forth in the Lock-Up Agreement.

Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement

On July 12, 2019, the Zhongchai Equity Holder entered into a Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement (the “Non-Competition Agreement”) in favor of Greenland, Zhongchai Holding and their respective successors, affiliates and subsidiaries (referred to as the “Covered Parties”), relating to the post-combination company’s business. Under the Non-Competition Agreement, for a period from the Closing to four years thereafter (or if later, the date on which the Zhongchai Equity Holder, its affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors or employees are no longer directors, officers, managers or employees of Zhongchai Holding or its subsidiaries (the “Termination Date”)), the Zhongchai Equity Holder and its affiliates will not, without Greenland’s prior written consent, anywhere in the PRC or any other markets in which, as of the Closing, the Covered Parties are engaged or actively contemplating to become engaged in the Business (as defined below) as of the Closing or during the restricted period, directly or indirectly engage in (or own, manage, finance or control, or become engaged or serve as an officer, director, employee, member, partner, agent, consultant, advisor or representative of, an entity that engages in) the business of (i) manufacturing and selling transmission products in China or (ii) selling autonomous transmission products in China (collectively, the “Business”). However, the Zhongchai Equity Holder and its affiliates will be permitted under the Non-Competition Agreements to own passive portfolio company investments in a competitor, so long as the Zhongchai Equity Holder and its affiliates and their respective shareholders, directors, officer, managers and employees who were involved with the business of Zhongchai Holding are not involved in the management or control of such competitor. Under the Non-Competition Agreements, during such restricted period, the Zhongchai Equity Holder and its affiliates will not, without Greenland’s prior written consent, (i) solicit or hire the Covered Parties’ employees, consultants or independent contractors as of such time (or, if earlier, the Termination Date) or during the one year period prior thereto or otherwise interfere with the Covered Parties’ relationships with such persons, (ii) solicit or divert the Covered Parties’ customers as of such time (or, if earlier, the Termination Date) or during the one year period prior thereto relating to the Business or otherwise interfere with the Covered Parties’ contractual relationships with such persons, or (iii) interfere with or disrupt any Covered Parties’ vendors, suppliers, distributors, agents or other service providers for

68

a purpose competitive with a Covered Party as it relates to the Business. The Zhongchai Equity Holder and its affiliates also agreed not to disparage the Covered Parties during the restricted period and to keep confidential and not use the confidential information of the Covered Parties.

Subscription Agreements

On September 8, 2019, Greenland entered into the Subscription Agreements with the investors named therein (the “PIPE Investors”), pursuant to which Greenland agreed to issue and sell to the PIPE Investors an aggregate of Six Million Dollars ($6,000,000) of Greenland Shares, at a price of $10.25 per share, simultaneously with or immediately prior to the Closing (the “PIPE Financing”). The PIPE Financing is conditioned on the Closing being scheduled to occur concurrently with or immediately following the closing of the PIPE Financing and other customary closing conditions. The proceeds from the PIPE Financing will be used to fund expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination and to fund the Company’s working capital requirements following the Closing.

During the period from the execution of the Subscription Agreements through 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the fifth business day prior to the Special Meeting, the PIPE Investors will have the right to purchase Greenland Shares in one or more open market purchases or in privately negotiated transactions with third parties (any shares so purchased, “Backstop Shares”), which if held and not redeemed in accordance with the requirements of the Subscription Agreements, will reduce the number of Greenland Shares required to be purchased by such PIPE Investors in the PIPE Financing. The PIPE Investors have agreed to (i) not transfer prior to the Closing any Backstop Shares that they own or otherwise acquire, (ii) vote at the Special Meeting all of the Backstop Shares that they own or acquire, or otherwise have proxy rights with respect to, in favor of the Business Combination, and each of the other Proposals, and (iii) waive and not exercise their Redemption Rights for any Backstop Shares that they own or acquire.

Greenland has agreed in the Subscription Agreements to file a registration statement covering the shares purchased by the PIPE Investors in the PIPE Financing within 30 calendar days after the closing of the PIPE Financing and to use commercially reasonable efforts to have such registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable and maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement until the earlier of (i) two years following the issuance of Greenland Shares, (ii) the date on which the PIPE Investors cease to hold the Greenland Shares covered by such registration statement, and (iii) the first day on which the PIPE Investors can sell all of their shares under Rule 144 of the Securities Act without manner of sale or volume restrictions. The foregoing obligations are subject to delay or suspension by Greenland for customary limited periods.

Each Subscription Agreement will terminate with no further force and effect upon the earlier to occur of (i) the mutual written agreement of each of the parties to the Subscription Agreement to terminate such agreement, (ii) the Company’s notification to the PIPE Investors to abandon the plan to conduct the Business Combination, (iii) such date and time as the Share Exchange Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, and (iv) written consent by either party to terminate the Subscription Agreement if the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Agreements are not consummated on or prior to December 31, 2019.

Interests of Greenland’s Directors and Officers and Others in the Business Combination

When you consider the recommendation of the Greenland Board in favor of approval of the Business Combination Proposal, you should keep in mind that an argument could be made that Greenland’s directors and officers, have interests in such Proposal that are different from, or in addition to, those of Greenland shareholders, Right holders and Warrant holders generally. These interests include, among other things, the interests listed below:

•        If Greenland does not complete a business combination transaction by October 25, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination) (unless Greenland submits and its shareholders approve an additional extension of such date), Greenland will cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, redeeming all of the outstanding Public Shares for cash and, subject to the approval of the Greenland Board and Greenland’s remaining shareholders, dissolving and liquidating, subject in each case to its obligations under the Companies Act to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. In such event, the 1,100,000 Founder Shares owned by the Sponsor would be worthless because, following the Redemption of the Public Shares, Greenland would likely have few, if any, net assets and because the Sponsor and Greenland’s directors and officers have agreed, in the Insider Letter Agreement, to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares if Greenland fails to complete a Business Combination within the required period. The Sponsor purchased the Founder Shares prior to Greenland’s IPO for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.02

69

per share. Such Founder Shares had an aggregate market value of $11,407,000 based upon the closing price of $10.37 per share on Nasdaq on September 9, 2019, the most recent closing price.

•        In addition, simultaneously with the closing of its IPO and underwriters’ partial exercise of their over-allotment option, Greenland completed the sale of 282,000 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit in a private placement to the Sponsor and Chardan. The Private Placement Units consist of one Greenland Share, one Private Placement Right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one Greenland Share upon the consummation of our initial business combination and one Private Placement Warrant. Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable for one-half of one Greenland Share at $11.50 per whole share. If Greenland does not complete a Business Combination transaction by October 25, 2019 (or April 27, 2020 if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination) (unless Greenland submits and its shareholders approve an additional extension of such date), then the aggregate proceeds of $2,820,000 from the sale of the Private Placement Units will be part of the liquidating distribution to the Public Shareholders and the Private Placement Units held by the Sponsor and Chardan will be worthless. The Private Placement Units held by the Sponsor and Chardan had an aggregate market value of $3,085,080 based upon the closing price of $10.94 per Unit on Nasdaq on September 9, 2019, the most recent closing price.

•        Yanming Liu will be a director of the Company after the completion of the Business Combination. As such, in the future he may receive any cash fees, share options, share awards or other remuneration that the Greenland Board determines to pay to each such director.

•        In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to Greenland if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to Greenland, or a prospective target business with which Greenland has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account below (i) $10.00 per Public Share (or such higher amount then held in trust) or (ii) such lesser amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under Greenland’s indemnity of the underwriters of Greenland’s IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

•        Following completion of the Business Combination, the Sponsor, Greenland’s officers and directors and their respective affiliates would be entitled to reimbursement for any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses related to identifying, investigating and completing an initial Business Combination, and repayment of any other loans, if any, and on such terms as to be determined by Greenland from time to time, made by the Sponsor or certain of Greenland’s officers and directors to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination. If Greenland fails to complete a Business Combination within the required period, the Sponsor and Greenland’s officers and directors and their respective affiliates will not have any claim against the Trust Account for reimbursement.

Exchange Listing

The Units (each consisting of one Greenland Share, one Right and one Warrant), Greenland Shares, Rights (each to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one Greenland Share upon the consummation of our initial business combination) and Warrants (each Warrant exercisable to purchase one-half of one Greenland Share) are currently traded on Nasdaq under the symbols “GLACU”,” “GLAC”, “GLACR” and “GLACW”, respectively. At the Closing, the Units will separate into their component securities so that the Units will no longer trade separately under “GLACU.” In addition, the Rights will automatically convert into Greenland Shares so that the Rights will no longer trade separately under “GLACR”. Greenland has applied for the continued listing of the Greenland Shares and Warrants on Nasdaq under the ticker symbols “GTEC” and “GTECW,” respectively.

Background of the Business Combination

Greenland is a blank check company incorporated on December 28, 2017, as a British Virgin Islands business company with limited liability and incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more target businesses.

70

Prior to the consummation of the IPO, neither Greenland, nor anyone on its behalf, had contacted any prospective target business or had any substantive discussions, formal or otherwise, with respect to a transaction with Greenland.

After the IPO, Greenland’s officers and directors commenced an active search for prospective businesses and assets to acquire. During this search process, Greenland did not hire an investment bank. During this search process, Greenland reviewed and entered into preliminary discussions with respect to a number of acquisition targets other than Zhongchai Holding. The following is not intended to be a complete list of all opportunities initially evaluated or explored or discussions held by Greenland, but sets forth the significant discussions and steps that Greenland took in reaching a definitive agreement with Zhongchai Holding.

Since the date of the consummation of the IPO, we considered a number of potential target companies with the objective of consummating an acquisition. Our representatives contacted, and were contacted by, a number of individuals and entities who offered to present ideas for acquisition opportunities, including financial advisors and companies that have their primary operations in Asia (particularly China). We compiled a list of high priority potential targets and updated and supplemented such list from time to time. During that period, we and our representatives:

•        identified and evaluated approximately 50 potential acquisition target companies;

•        participated in in-person or telephonic discussions with representatives of approximately 35 potential acquisition targets;

•        executed non-disclosure agreements with approximately ten potential acquisition targets;

•        executed letters of intent with four potential acquisition targets; and

•        conducted confirmatory due diligence with respect to four potential acquisition targets.

We reviewed the potential acquisitions based on the same criteria discussed below and used in evaluating the proposed Business Combination, which included established middle-market businesses with proven track records, experienced management teams and strong competitive positions with, or with the potential for, revenue and earnings growth and strong free cash flow generation. We focused on companies exhibiting ongoing growth or the potential for a near-term cyclical uptick, and within those sectors, companies that would benefit from being a publicly traded company.

On July 30, 2018, Greenland’s senior management, consisting of Yanming Liu, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Jerry Zheng, our Chief Operating Officer, and River Chi, our Chief Financial Officer, started to look for target companies. In September 2018, we retained Mr. Wu Zhuo of DeHeng Law Offices, a leading global law firm with offices in China (“DeHeng”), as our Chinese counsel to assist us and conduct legal due diligence on potential target companies. In October 2018, we hired several consultants in China with strong professional backgrounds to support our management team, including Lou Zhong, who has both audit and investment banking background, and Julie Long, who has an audit background.

The team, consisting of our senior management, Messrs. Zhong and Long and other consultants, identified various preliminary target selection criteria, including but not limited to financial thresholds such as net income and revenues, length of operating history, business practice licensing requirements, and management’s knowledge of global capital markets. Based on the extensive business connections and industrial insights from the professional team, we established a referral system, whereby potential acquisition targets that met the team’s preliminary target selection criteria would be submitted to the Greenland Board. Our team reviewed the initial candidate referrals on the basis of each candidate’s financial performance, business industry and management description. Following such initial review, the team selected preliminary qualified candidates and proceeded to the second stage of review by conducting business conference calls and/or personal visits and meetings with the management of such preliminary qualified candidates to discuss candidates’ business operation performance and financial performance, and collecting further business information of candidates.

Greenland’s senior management assisted the team with the preliminary selection of potential targets. Several senior management officers from Greenland regularly attended meetings with the team to assist in scrutinizing acquisition targets from various perspectives, such as prospects for industry and company growth, based on their experience and knowledge in related businesses. From August 2018 through May 2019, members of Greenland’s management team held 45 meetings, including in-person meetings and conference calls (the “Selection Meetings”) to discuss preliminary target candidates. At each Selection Meeting, we reviewed and discussed the qualifications of those preliminary target candidates and ranked each company with respect to our level of interest in a possible business combination. After reviewing approximately 50 potential targets, and holding discussions with the management or representatives of

71

approximately 35 of such companies, we decided to focus on five potential companies. After completing its analysis, Greenland’s management team identified Zhongchai Holding as the preferred acquisition target.

Description of negotiation process with candidates other than Zhongchai Holding

In September 2018, Company A, which is not affiliated with Greenland or to any affiliated business entities of Greenland, was referred to the team through an investment bank in China. Company A is an internet medical registration platform company in Fujian, China. On September 1, 2018, after reviewing basic information of Company A and discussing with management of Company A, the team established Company A as a business combination candidate and submitted its information at the Selection Meeting with Greenland’s senior management on September 18, 2018 based upon a preliminary due diligence review. Greenland conducted additional due diligence on Company A from mid-September to October 2018, and reviewed Company A’s third quarter of 2018 financial information as it became available. Following Greenland’s review of Company A’s financial performance data for the third quarter of 2018, Greenland removed Company A from the priority list of business combination target candidates on October 20, 2018 at a meeting of the Selection Meeting because of Company A’s disappointing results for the quarter.

In October 2018, Company B, which is not affiliated with Greenland or any affiliated business entities, was referred to the team through a financial advisor of Company B. Company B is a pharmaceutical manufacturer based in Hainan, China. On October 18, 2018, after reviewing basic information of Company B and holding discussions with its management, the team established Company B as a potential business combination candidate and submitted Company B’s information at a Selection Meeting on October 24, 2018. From October 2018 through November 2018, Greenland reviewed and evaluated Company B’s financial information, management structure and business model. In November 2018, Greenland was notified by Company B’s advisor that Company B could be materially harmed by new governmental policies for pharmaceutical companies in China. As a result, Greenland determined to end discussions with Company B and removed Company B from Greenland’s list of target candidates.

In October 2018, Company C, which is not affiliated with Greenland or any affiliated business entities, was referred to Greenland’s team through a financial advisory firm based in Shanghai, China. Company C is a mobile advertisement service provider for branding and game promotion based in Shanghai, China. On October 28, 2018, after reviewing basic information of Company C and meeting with its management, the team established Company C as a candidate and submitted Company C’s information at the Selection Meeting on October 29, 2018. Greenland continued due diligence and discussions with Company C until November 10, 2018, when Greenland was informed that Company C’s funding needs and acquisition timeline was not compatible with Greenland’s timeline to complete a business combination.

In November 2018, Company D, which is not affiliated with Greenland or any of its affiliated business entities, was referred to Greenland’s team through a financial advisory firm based in the United States. Company D is an education service group in California. On November 5, 2018, after reviewing basic information of Company D, the team established Company D as a candidate and submitted Company D’s information to the Selection Meeting on November 9, 2018 and signed a letter of intent with Company D on that day. From November 2018 through January 2018, Greenland conducted due diligence and reviewed the financial needs of Company D. At a January 28, 2019 Selection Meeting, Greenland discussed that Company D’s potential needs and acquisition timeline was not compatible with Greenland’s timeline to complete a business combination and terminated the letter of intent on that day.

Description of negotiation process with Zhongchai Holding

On November 3, 2018, Greenland was contacted by Hanyi Zhou, a financial advisor based in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China that was engaged by Greenland to introduce Greenland to potential target companies. Mr. Zhou introduced Peter Zuguang Wang, sole director of Zhongchai Holding and chairman of Zhejiang Zhongchai, to Mr. Liu to discuss a potential business combination between Greenland and Zhongchai Holding.

On November 9, 2018, Zhongchai Holding and Greenland executed a non-disclosure agreement. On November 11, 2018, David Ming He, then Chief Financial Officer of Zhongchai Holding, sent Zhongchai Holding’s business presentation, financial statements and a financial forecast to Mr. Zheng. Subsequently, on November 12, 2018, Greenland and Zhongchai Holding held a conference call to discuss the potential business combination opportunity. During the call, Zhongchai Holding made a presentation and advised Greenland that Zhongchai Holding was considering an initial public offering, and Zhongchai Holding believed that a transaction with Greenland could be a suitable alternative, considering the certainty and time efficiency.

72

On November 18, 2018, Greenland and Zhongchai Holding conducted a meeting in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China. Mr. He and Mr. Zheng had a discussion about Zhongchai Holding’s current and forecasted financial results, as presented elsewhere in this proxy statement under the heading “— Certain Historical and Prospective Financial Information Provided to the Greenland Board.” Mr. He disclosed to Greenland that Zhongchai Holding’s transmission systems had achieved steady growth in China and that Zhongchai Holding was creating a new robotic model that management expected to start manufacturing and selling in the near future. In addition, Zhongchai Holding demonstrated current and future business opportunities with various customers including two large customers. Greenland confirmed its interest in exploring a potential business combination with Zhongchai Holding pending a review of Zhongchai Holding’s 2018 financial statements when they became available.

On December 11, 2018, Mr. He contacted Greenland to discuss the potential business combination. Mr. He advised Greenland that Zhongchai Holding expected to demonstrate attractive growth rates in its 2018 financial statements.

On January 4, 2019, Mr. Wang and Mr. Liu met in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China. At the meeting, Mr. Wang reported that Zhongchai Holding’s 2018 net income was approximately $7,000,000 and that Zhongchai Holding had already secured several large contracts for 2019 in Chinese markets. Mr. Liu suggested that Greenland send a team to conduct due diligence on Zhongchai Holding.

On January 7, 2019, Messrs. Liu and Zhong and other members of the Greenland team visited Zhongchai Holding’s office in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China and met with Messrs. Wang and He. At the meeting, Greenland decided to send a group of professional team members to Zhongchai Holding for an onsite due diligence study, including representatives of Greenland’s PRC counsel, DeHeng.

On the same day, January 7, 2019, Mr. Wang and Mr. Liu orally agreed to proceed with negotiations of a potential business combination.

At the meetings, the two companies discussed BDO’s audit work progress and T&C’s legal due diligence investigation.

73

A conference call was held for Zhongchai Holding to address certain questions which emerged from Greenland’s legal and financial due diligence investigation.

Greenland Board’s Reasons for the Approval of the Business Combination

Before reaching its decision, the Greenland Board reviewed the results of Greenland management’s due diligence investigation, and the due diligence investigations of Greenland’s third party legal advisors. The Greenland Board also received and reviewed presentations from, and discussed with, Greenland’s third party legal advisors the transaction structure, material terms of the Business Combination and various aspects of the due diligence.

The diligence conducted by Greenland’s management and presentations received included:

•        Research on comparable companies and transactions;

•        A review of the transaction structure presented by Greenland’s management and EGS;

•        A presentation by Mr. Liu regarding Zhongchai Holding’s strategic direction and recent initiatives;

•        Financial, tax, and accounting diligence review;

•        Legal diligence review conducted by DeHeng and EGS;

75

•        Site visits by Greenland’s management to Zhongchai Holding’s main offices;

•        General industry research and analysis conducted by the management of Greenland;

•        A financial, operational and documentation review by management of requested materials provided by Zhongchai Holding; and

•        Extensive meetings and calls with Zhongchai Holding’s management and Zhongchai Holding’s representatives regarding Zhongchai Holding’s operations, financial condition, strategy and prospects.

The Greenland Board considered a wide variety of factors in connection with its evaluation of the Business Combination. In light of the complexity of those factors, the Greenland Board, as a whole, did not consider it practicable to, nor did it attempt to, quantify or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors it took into account in reaching its decision. Individual directors may have given different weight to different factors. This explanation of Greenland’s reasons for the Business Combination and all other information presented in this section is forward-looking. Therefore, you should read this explanation in light of the factors discussed under “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

In the prospectus for the IPO, Greenland identified the following general criteria and guidelines that Greenland believed would be important in evaluating prospective target businesses:

•        Middle-Market Growth Business.    We will primarily seek to acquire one or more growth businesses with a total enterprise value of between $150,000,000 and $250,000,000. We believe that there are a substantial number of potential target businesses within this valuation range that can benefit from new capital for scalable operations to yield significant revenue and earnings growth. We currently do not intend to acquire either a start-up company (a company that has not yet established commercial operations) or a company with negative cash flow.

•        Companies in Business Segments that are Strategically Significant to China.    In addition to the TES sector, we will seek to acquire those businesses that are currently strategically significant in China. Such sectors include: Internet and high technology, clean energy, health care, consumer and retail, energy and resources, food processing, manufacturing and education.

•        Business with Revenue and Earnings Growth Potential.    We will seek to acquire one or more businesses that have the potential for significant revenue and earnings growth through a combination of both existing and new product development, increased production capacity, expense reduction and synergistic follow-on acquisitions resulting in increased operating leverage.

•        Companies with Potential for Strong Free Cash Flow Generation.    We will seek to acquire one or more businesses that have the potential to generate strong, stable and increasing free cash flow. We intend to focus on one or more businesses that have predictable revenue streams and definable low working capital and capital expenditure requirements. We may also seek to prudently leverage this cash flow in order to enhance shareholder value.

•        Benefit from Being a Public Company.    We intend to only acquire a business or businesses that will benefit from being publicly traded and which can effectively utilize access to broader sources of capital and a public profile that are associated with being a publicly traded company.

In considering the Business Combination, the Greenland Board concluded that Zhongchai Holding substantially met the above criteria. In particular, the Greenland Board considered the following positive factors:

•        Leading Middle-Market Business at an Attractive Valuation.    The Greenland Board took note of the fact that Zhongchai Holding is a leading developer and manufacturer of transmission products for material handling machineries in China and had substantial revenue with a track record of strong organic growth. The Greenland Board also noted that Zhongchai Holding’s valuation was attractive relative to other prospective target companies.

•        Business Where Greenland Can Add Value.    The Greenland Board believed that Greenland’s management will be able to provide Zhongchai Holding with a comprehensive network of resources to support its human capital, performance improvement, strategic growth and capital markets initiatives. Greenland’s management has an established track record of executing acquisition and consolidation focused strategies. Zhongchai Holding management team has indicated its intent to continue to selectively acquire new

76

businesses to supplement its organic growth, and Greenland believed that Zhongchai Holding, under new public ownership, will be able to access more efficient capital to provide currency for its consolidation strategy to further increase revenues and shareholder value.

•        Strong Management Team.    The Greenland Board considered the expertise and strength of the Zhongchai Holding management team, including Peter Zuguang Wang, who have many years of experience in the transportation industry.

•        Attractive Financial Profile.    Based on its review of Zhongchai Holding’s business, financial condition, results of operations, including Zhongchai Holding’s strong margins, the Greenland Board believed that Zhongchai Holding had an attractive financial profile with strong free cash generation and highly recurring revenue.

•        Growth Opportunities.    The Greenland Board believed that Zhongchai Holding is well-positioned for future growth, particularly with respect to the robotic product that Zhongchai Holding is developing and expects to begin manufacturing and selling in the near future.

•        Financial Terms of the Share Exchange Agreement.    The Greenland Board took note of the post-Closing ownership structure whereby the existing owner of Zhongchai Holding agreed to: (i) accept all of their financial consideration for the Business Combination in equity; and (ii) a minimum twelve-month lock-up period with respect to the equity consideration received from the Business Combination.

•        Other Terms and Conditions of the Share Exchange Agreement.    The Greenland Board took note of the willingness and agreement of Mr. Peter Zuguang Wang, sole director of Zhongchai Holding, Mr. Yanming Liu, one of the existing board members of Greenland, as well as three director nominees, namely Min Zhang, Everett Xiaolin Wang and Hong Liang Lu, to serve as members of the Greenland Board post-Closing. The Greenland Board also took note of the entire senior management team of Zhongchai Holding agreeing to enter into long-term employment agreements with Zhongchai Holding at Closing. The Greenland Board also took into consideration the willingness and agreement of certain of the above referenced board members and senior management to enter into non-compete agreements with the Company.

•        Pro Forma Ownership.    The Greenland Board took note of the fact that following completion of the Business Combination (assuming, among other things, that no Greenland shareholders exercise Redemption Rights with respect to their Greenland Shares upon completion of the Business Combination and the other assumptions described under the section entitled “Frequently Used Terms — Share Calculations and Ownership Percentages”), after giving effect to the issuance of Greenland Shares upon the conversion of the Rights and the Private Placement Rights immediately following the Closing, the Zhongchai Equity Holder is expected to own approximately 52.1% of the outstanding Greenland Shares, the PIPE Investors are expected to own approximately 4.2% of the outstanding Greenland Shares, an independent third party that is a China-based entity that acted as finder in connection with the Business Combination is expected to own approximately 0.3% of the outstanding Greenland Shares and the current holders of Greenland Shares are expected to own approximately 43.4% of the outstanding Greenland Shares (approximately 33.6% held by the Public Shareholders, approximately 0.2% held by Chardan and approximately 9.6% held by the Sponsor).

In making its recommendation, the Greenland Board also considered, among other things, the following potential deterrents to the Business Combination:

•        the risk that some of the current Public Shareholders would exercise their Redemption Rights, thereby depleting the amount of cash available in the Trust Account;

•        the risk that the announcement of the Business Combination and potential diversion of Zhongchai Holding’s management and employee attention may adversely affect Zhongchai Holding’s operations;

•        the risk that certain key employees of Zhongchai Holding might not choose to remain with the Company post-Closing;

•        the risk that the Greenland Board may not have properly valued Zhongchai Holding’s business;

•        the risks associated with the transportation industry, including the risk factors set forth under the heading “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Zhongchai Holding’s Business” in this proxy statement;

77

•        the risk associated with macroeconomic uncertainty and the effects it could have on Zhongchai Holding’s revenues;

•        the risk of competition in the industry, including the potential for new entrants;

•        the risk that the Business Combination might not be consummated in a timely manner or that the Closing might not occur despite the companies’ efforts, including by reason of a failure to obtain the approval of Greenland’s shareholders;

•        the risk of failure to satisfy the conditions to Closing (to the extent not waived by the parties);

•        the inability to maintain the listing of the Company’s securities on The Nasdaq Capital Market following the Business Combination;

•        the significant fees and expenses associated with completing the Business Combination and the substantial time and effort of management required to complete the Business Combination;

•        the potential conflicts of interest of the Sponsor and Greenland’s officers and directors in the Business Combination; and

•        the other risks described in the “Risk Factors” section of this proxy statement.

The Greenland Board concluded that these risks could be managed or mitigated by the Company or were unlikely to have a material impact on the Business Combination or the Company, and that, overall, the potentially negative factors or risks associated with the Business Combination were outweighed by the potential benefits of the Business Combination to Greenland and its shareholders. The Greenland Board realized that there can be no assurance about future results, including results considered or expected as disclosed in the foregoing reasons. The foregoing discussion of the material factors considered by the Greenland Board is not intended to be exhaustive, but does set forth the principal factors considered by the Greenland Board.

Certain Prospective Financial Information Provided to the Greenland Board

Greenland and Zhongchai Holding do not as a practice make public projections as to future revenues, earnings or other results. However, Greenland is including the following summary of certain Zhongchai Holding internal, unaudited prospective financial information from Zhongchai Holding’s management’s projections solely because that information was made available to the Greenland Board in connection with the evaluation of the Business Combination. Inclusion of summary information regarding the financial forecasts in this proxy statement is not intended to influence your decision whether to vote for the Business Combination.

The accompanying unaudited Zhongchai Holding prospective financial information was not prepared with a view toward complying with the guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants with respect to the preparation and presentation of prospective financial information, but, in the view of Zhongchai Holding’s management, was prepared on a reasonable basis, reflects the best then-currently available estimates and judgments, and presents, to the best of management’s knowledge and belief, the expected course of action and the expected future financial performance, in each case at the time such information was provided to the Greenland Board, which may be different from the information currently available at the time of filing this proxy statement. As such, this information is not fact and should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results, and readers of this proxy statement are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the prospective financial information.

The accompanying unaudited prospective financial information is the responsibility of Zhongchai Holding’s management. Neither Greenland’s independent registered public accounting firm nor Zhongchai Holding’s independent registered public accounting firm has audited, reviewed, examined, compiled, or applied agreed-upon procedures with respect to the accompanying unaudited prospective financial information for the purpose of its inclusion herein, and accordingly, neither of them expresses an opinion or provides any other form of assurance on such information or its achievability, and assume no responsibility for, and disclaim any association with, the unaudited prospective financial information for the purpose of this proxy statement. The audit reports included in this proxy statement relate solely to the previously issued financial statements. Such reports do not extend to the prospective financial information and should not be read to do so.

Furthermore, the accompanying unaudited prospective financial information does not take into account any circumstances or events occurring after November 18, 2018, the date such unaudited prospective financial information was prepared.

78

The accompanying unaudited Zhongchai Holding prospective financial information includes financial measures that were not calculated in accordance with GAAP, namely EBIT and EBITDA. EBIT and EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures.

EBIT is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents net income prior to interest expense. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents net income prior to interest expense, depreciation and amortization. Zhongchai Holding discloses EBIT and EBITDA in this proxy statement because they are key measures used by its management to evaluate Zhongchai Holding’s business, measure its operating performance and make strategic decisions. Zhongchai Holding believes EBIT and EBITDA are useful for investors and others in understanding and evaluating Zhongchai Holding’s operations results in the same manner as its management. However, neither EBIT nor EBITDA is not a financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for net income, operating profit, or any other operating performance measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Using these non-GAAP financial measures to analyze Zhongchai Holding’s business would have material limitations because the calculations are based on the subjective determination of management regarding the nature and classification of events and circumstances that investors may find significant. In addition, although other companies in Zhongchai Holding’s industry may report measures titled EBIT, EBITDA or similar measures, such non-GAAP financial measures may be calculated differently from how Zhongchai Holding calculates its non-GAAP financial measures, which reduces their overall usefulness as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, you should consider EBIT and EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures, including net income and our other financial results presented in accordance with GAAP.

The assumptions and estimates underlying the prospective financial information are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the prospective financial information, including, among others, risks and uncertainties set forth under “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” contained elsewhere in this proxy statement. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the prospective results are indicative of the future performance of the Company or that actual results will not differ materially from those presented in the prospective financial information. Inclusion of the prospective financial information in this proxy statement should not be regarded as a representation by any person that the results contained in the prospective financial information will be achieved.

Considering that the Special Meeting will be held many months after the date the accompanying unaudited prospective financial information was prepared, as well as the uncertainties inherent in any forecasted information, shareholders and warrant holders are cautioned not to rely on the accompanying unaudited prospective financial information. This information constitutes “forward-looking statements” and actual results likely will differ from it and the differences may be material. See the section entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Greenland and Zhongchai Holding have not updated, and do not intend to update or otherwise revise, the accompanying unaudited prospective financial information to reflect circumstances existing since its preparation, including any changes in general economic or industry conditions, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Neither Greenland, Zhongchai Holding nor any of their respective representatives or advisers makes any representation to any person with regard to the ultimate performance of Greenland, Zhongchai Holding or the Company.

Satisfaction of 80% Test

Pursuant to Nasdaq listing rules, the target business or businesses that Greenland acquires must collectively have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance of the funds in the Trust Account (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned) at the time of the execution of a definitive agreement for Greenland’s initial business combination (such requirement, the “80% test”). As of the date of the execution of the Share Exchange Agreement, the balance of the funds in the Trust Account was approximately $43.6 million (excluding approximately $1.0 million of deferred underwriting commissions) and 80% thereof represents approximately $34.9 million. The Greenland Board determined that Zhongchai Holding’s enterprise value was $75.9 million, thus satisfying the 80% test.

Although the Greenland Board did not seek a third party valuation, and did not receive any report, valuation or opinion from any third party in connection with the Business Combination, the Greenland Board has significant experience in managing and advising companies and valuing the securities of companies. In reaching its conclusion that the implied enterprise value of Zhongchai Holding exceeded the 80% threshold, the Greenland Board evaluated the following sources of information: (i) Greenland’s due diligence of Zhongchai Holding’s business operations, (ii) Zhongchai Holding’s historical financial and other results set forth in “Selected Historical Consolidated Financial and Other Data of Zhongchai Holding” and the historical financial statements of Zhongchai Holding elsewhere in this proxy statement, (iii) the future growth outlook of Zhongchai Holding, (iv) the trading performance and valuations of publicly traded companies in similar and adjacent sectors and (v) the collective experience of the members of the Greenland Board in transactions.

In particular, the Greenland Board determined Zhongchai Holding’s enterprise value of $75.9 million based on net income attributable to Zhongchai Holding for the year ended December 31, 2018, multiplied by 12.9. The Greenland Board compared this multiple against other publicly traded companies in the transportation sector, including Hangcha Group Co., Ltd., Anhui HELI Co. Ltd and Guangxi Liugong Machinery Co., Ltd. As of June 30, 2019, among such comparable companies, the average multiple over net income was 12.7x for the year ended December 31, 2018.

The Greenland Board also considered a range of qualitative and quantitative factors such as the recent growth in Zhongchai Holding’s revenues and net income, the potential growth of Zhongchai Holding’s robotic products, Zhongchai Holding’s competitive position in the transmission sector in China, Zhongchai Holding’s profit margins and operating metrics, Zhongchai Holding’s future growth opportunities, potential industry consolidation and other compelling aspects of the Business Combination.

Based on the analyses described above, the Greenland Board determined that Zhongchai Holding’s enterprise value was $75.9 million and that the Business Combination satisfied the 80% test.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations for Shareholders Exercising Redemption Rights

The following is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax considerations for holders of Greenland Shares that elect to have their Greenland Shares redeemed for cash. This summary is based upon the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the regulations promulgated by the U.S. Treasury Department, current administrative interpretations and practices of the IRS (including administrative interpretations and practices expressed in private letter rulings which are binding on the IRS only with respect to the particular taxpayers who requested and received those rulings) and judicial decisions, all as currently in effect and all of which are subject to differing interpretations or to change, possibly with retroactive effect. No assurance can be given that the IRS would not assert, or that a court would not sustain, a position contrary to any of the tax considerations described below. No advance ruling has been or will be sought from the IRS regarding any matter discussed in this summary. This summary does not address any tax laws other than the U.S. federal income tax law, including any estate or gift taxes, no does it discuss the impact that U.S. state and local taxes and taxes imposed by non-U.S. jurisdictions could have on the matters discussed in this summary. This summary does not purport to discuss all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be important to a particular shareholder in light of its investment or tax circumstances or to shareholders subject to special tax rules, such as:

•        certain U.S. expatriates;

•        traders in securities that elect mark-to-market treatment;

•        S corporations;

•        U.S. shareholders (as defined below) whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar;

80

•        financial institutions;

•        mutual funds;

•        qualified plans, such as 401(k) plans, individual retirement accounts, etc.;

•        insurance companies;

•        broker-dealers;

•        regulated investment companies (or RICs);

•        real estate investment trusts (or REITs);

•        persons holding Greenland Shares as part of a straddle, hedge, conversion transaction, synthetic security or other integrated investment;

•        persons subject to the alternative minimum tax or Medicare tax on net investment income;

•        tax-exempt organizations;

•        persons that actually or constructively own 5 percent or more of Greenland Shares; and

•        Redeeming Non-U.S. Holders (as defined below, and except as otherwise discussed below).

If any partnership (including for this purpose any entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds Greenland Shares, the tax treatment of a partner generally will depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partner and the partnership. This summary does not address any tax consequences to any partnership that holds Greenland Shares (or to any direct or indirect partner of such partnership). If you are a partner of a partnership holding Greenland Shares, you should consult your tax advisor. This summary assumes that shareholders hold Greenland Shares as capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code, which generally means as property held for investment.

WE URGE HOLDERS OF GREENLAND SHARES CONTEMPLATING EXERCISE OF THEIR REDEMPTION RIGHTS TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, AND FOREIGN INCOME AND OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES THEREOF.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations to U.S. Holders

This section is addressed to Redeeming U.S. Holders (as defined below) of Greenland Shares that elect to have their Greenland Shares redeemed for cash. For purposes of this discussion, a “Redeeming U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner that so redeems its Greenland Shares and is a U.S. Holder. A “U.S. Holder” is:

•        a citizen or resident of the United States;

•        a corporation (including an entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof;

•        an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

•        any trust if (1) a U.S. court is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of such trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (2) it has a valid election in place to be treated as a U.S. person.

Tax Treatment of the Redemption — In General

The discussion under this heading is subject in its entirety to the discussion below under the heading “— Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules.” A Redeeming U.S. Holder will generally recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on the Redemption and such shareholder’s adjusted basis in the Greenland Shares exchanged therefor if the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s ownership of shares in Greenland is completely terminated or if the Redemption meets certain other tests described below. Special constructive ownership rules apply in determining whether a Redeeming U.S. Holder’s ownership of shares in Greenland is treated as completely terminated (and in general, such Redeeming U.S. Holder may not be considered to have completely terminated its interest if it continues to hold Greenland’s Warrants or Rights). If gain or loss treatment applies, such gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if the holding period of such shares is more than one year at the time of the exchange. It is possible

81

that because of the Redemption Rights associated with Greenland Shares, the holding period of such shares may not be considered to begin until the date of such Redemption (and thus it is possible that long-term capital gain or loss treatment may not apply to Greenland Shares redeemed in the Redemption). Shareholders who hold different blocks of Greenland Shares (generally, Greenland Shares purchased or acquired on different dates or at different prices) should consult their tax advisors to determine how the above rules apply to them.

Cash received upon Redemption that does not completely terminate the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s interest will still give rise to capital gain or loss, if the Redemption is either (i) “substantially disproportionate” or (ii) “not essentially equivalent to a dividend.” In determining whether the Redemption is substantially disproportionate or not essentially equivalent to a dividend with respect to a Redeeming U.S. Holder, that Redeeming U.S. Holder is deemed to own not just shares actually owned but also shares underlying rights to acquire Greenland Shares (including for these purposes Greenland’s Warrants and Rights) and, in some cases, shares owned by certain family members, certain estates and trusts of which the Redeeming U.S. Holder is a beneficiary, and certain affiliated entities.

Generally, the Redemption will be “substantially disproportionate” with respect to the Redeeming U.S. Holder if (i) the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s percentage ownership of the outstanding voting shares (including all classes which carry voting rights) of Greenland is reduced immediately after the Redemption to less than 80% of the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s percentage interest in such shares immediately before the Redemption; (ii) the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s percentage ownership of the outstanding Greenland Shares (both voting and nonvoting) immediately after the Redemption is reduced to less than 80% of such percentage ownership immediately before the Redemption; and (iii) the Redeeming U.S. Holder owns, immediately after the Redemption, less than 50% of the total combined voting power of all classes of shares of Greenland entitled to vote. Whether the Redemption will be considered “not essentially equivalent to a dividend” with respect to a Redeeming U.S. Holder will depend upon the particular circumstances of that U.S. holder. At a minimum, however, the Redemption must result in a meaningful reduction in the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s actual or constructive percentage ownership of Greenland. The IRS has ruled that any reduction in a shareholder’s proportionate interest is a “meaningful reduction” if the shareholder’s relative interest in the corporation is minimal and the shareholder does not have meaningful control over the corporation.

If none of the Redemption tests described above give rise to capital gain or loss, the consideration paid to the Redeeming U.S. Holder will be treated as dividend income for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent of Greenland’s current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. tax principles). However, for the purposes of the dividends-received deduction and of “qualified dividend” treatment, due to the Redemption Right, a Redeeming U.S. Holder may be unable to include the time period prior to the Redemption in the shareholder’s holding period. Any distribution in excess of Greenland’s earnings and profits will reduce the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s basis in the Greenland Shares (but not below zero), and any remaining excess will be treated as gain realized on the sale or other disposition of the Greenland Shares.

As these rules are complex, U.S. holders of Greenland Shares considering exercising their Redemption Rights should consult their own tax advisors as to whether the Redemption will be treated as a sale or as a distribution under the Code.

Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules

A foreign (i.e., non-U.S.) corporation will be a PFIC for U.S. tax purposes if at least 75% of its gross income in a taxable year, including its pro rata share of the gross income of any corporation in which it is considered to own directly or indirectly at least 25% of the shares by value, is passive income. Alternatively, a foreign corporation will be a PFIC if at least 50% of its assets in a taxable year of the foreign corporation, determined in the case of a publicly traded corporation based on fair market value and averaged quarterly over the year, including its pro rata share of the assets of any corporation in which it is considered to own directly or indirectly at least 25% of the shares by value, are held for the production of, or produce, passive income. Passive income generally includes dividends, interest, rents and royalties (other than rents or royalties derived from the active conduct of a trade or business) and gains from the disposition of passive assets. Under IRS guidance, cash is generally considered to be a passive asset.

Because Greenland is a blank check company, with no current active business, it believes that it has met the PFIC asset or income test beginning with its initial taxable year ended November 30, 2018. However, pursuant to a start-up exception, a corporation will not be a PFIC for the first taxable year the corporation has gross income (in

82

Greenland’s case, its taxable year ended November 30, 2018), if (1) no predecessor of the corporation was a PFIC; (2) the corporation satisfies the IRS that it will not be a PFIC for either of the first two taxable years following the start-up year (in Greenland’s case, each of its taxable year ending November 30, 2019 and its taxable year ending November 30, 2020); and (3) the corporation is not, in fact, a PFIC for either of those years. A determination as to whether Greenland would satisfy the start-up exception will not be made until after its current taxable year, and there can be no assurance that Greenland will qualify for such exception. Greenland will continue to be treated as a PFIC until it no longer satisfies the PFIC tests (although, as stated below, in general the PFIC rules would continue to apply to any U.S. holder who held Greenland’s securities at any time it was considered a PFIC).

If Greenland is determined to be a PFIC for any taxable year (or portion thereof) that is included in the holding period of a Redeeming U.S. Holder of Greenland Shares, Rights or Warrants and, in the case of its Greenland Shares, the Redeeming U.S. Holder did not make either a timely QEF election for Greenland’s first taxable year as a PFIC in which the Redeeming U.S. Holder held (or was deemed to hold) Greenland Shares or a timely “mark to market” election, in each case as described below, such holder generally will be subject to special rules with respect to:

•        any gain recognized by the Redeeming U.S. Holder on the sale or other disposition of its Greenland Shares, Rights or Warrant (which would include the Redemption, if such Redemption is treated as a sale under the rules discussed under the heading “— Tax Treatment of the Redemption — In General,” above); and

•        any “excess distribution” made to the Redeeming U.S. Holder (generally, any distributions to such Redeeming U.S. Holder during a taxable year of the Redeeming U.S. Holder that are greater than 125% of the average annual distributions received by such Redeeming U.S. Holder in respect of the Greenland Shares during the three preceding taxable years of such Redeeming U.S. Holder or, if shorter, such Redeeming U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Greenland Shares), which may include the Redemption to the extent such Redemption is treated as a distribution under the rules discussed under the heading “— Tax Treatment of the Redemption — In General,” above.

Under these special rules, any gain recognized or any “excess distribution” received by the Redeeming U.S. Holder generally will be treated as follows:

•        the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s gain or excess distribution will be allocated ratably over the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Greenland Shares, Rights or Warrants;

•        the amount allocated to the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s taxable year in which the Redeeming U.S. Holder recognized the gain or received the excess distribution, or to the period in the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s holding period before the first day of Greenland’s first taxable year in which it is a PFIC, will be taxed as ordinary income;

•        the amount allocated to other taxable years (or portions thereof) of the Redeeming U.S. Holder and included in its holding period will be taxed at the highest tax rate in effect for that year and applicable to the Redeeming U.S. Holder; and

•        the interest charge generally applicable to underpayments of tax will be imposed in respect of the tax attributable to each such other taxable year of the Redeeming U.S. Holder.

In general, if Greenland is determined to be a PFIC, a Redeeming U.S. Holder may avoid the PFIC tax consequences described above in respect to Greenland Shares (but not its Warrants and possibly not its Rights) if such holder made a timely QEF election (if eligible to do so) to include in income its pro rata share of Greenland’s net capital gains (as long-term capital gain) and other earnings and profits (as ordinary income), on a current basis, in each case whether or not distributed, in or prior to the taxable year of the Redeeming U.S. Holder in which or with which Greenland’s taxable year ends. In general, a QEF election must be made on or before the due date (including extensions) for filing such Redeeming U.S. Holder’s tax return for the taxable year for which the election relates. A Redeeming U.S. Holder may make a separate election to defer the payment of taxes on undistributed income inclusions under the QEF rules, but if deferred, any such taxes will be subject to an interest charge.

A Redeeming U.S. Holder may not make a QEF election with respect to its Warrants to acquire Greenland’s shares. As a result, if a Redeeming U.S. Holder sells or otherwise disposes of such Warrants (other than upon exercise of such Warrants), any gain recognized generally will be subject to the special tax and interest charge rules treating the gain as an excess distribution, as described above, if Greenland were a PFIC at any time during the period the Redeeming U.S. Holder held the Warrants. If a Redeeming U.S. Holder that exercises such Warrants properly makes a QEF election with respect to the newly acquired shares (or has previously made a QEF election with respect to

83

Greenland’s shares), the QEF election will apply to the newly acquired shares, but the adverse tax consequences relating to PFIC shares, adjusted to take into account the current income inclusions resulting from the QEF election, will continue to apply with respect to such newly acquired shares (which generally will be deemed to have a holding period for purposes of the PFIC rules that includes the period the Redeeming U.S. Holder held the Warrants), unless the Redeeming U.S. Holder makes a purging election. The purging election creates a deemed sale of such shares at their fair market value. The gain recognized by the purging election will be subject to the special tax and interest charge rules treating the gain as an excess distribution, as described above. As a result of the purging election, the Redeeming U.S. Holder will have a new basis and holding period in the shares acquired upon the exercise of the Warrants for purposes of the PFIC rules.

It is unclear if a Redeeming U.S. Holder would be permitted to make a QEF election with respect to its rights to acquire Greenland Shares. The remainder of this paragraph addresses the tax consequences if a QEF election is not available with respect to Greenland’s rights. If a Redeeming U.S. Holder sells or otherwise disposes of such rights (other than pursuant to the terms of such rights), any gain recognized generally may be subject to the special tax and interest charge rules treating the gain as an excess distribution, as described above, if Greenland were a PFIC at any time during the period the Redeeming U.S. Holder held the rights. If a Redeeming U.S. Holder that receives Greenland Shares pursuant to such rights properly makes a QEF election with respect to the newly acquired Greenland Shares (or has previously made a QEF election with respect to Greenland Shares), the QEF election will apply to the newly acquired Greenland Shares, but the adverse tax consequences relating to PFIC shares, adjusted to take into account the current income inclusions resulting from the QEF election, will continue to apply with respect to such newly acquired Greenland Shares (which generally will be deemed to have a holding period for purposes of the PFIC rules that includes the period the Redeeming U.S. Holder held the rights), unless the Redeeming U.S. Holder makes a purging election under the PFIC rules. The purging election creates a deemed sale of such shares at their fair market value. The gain recognized by the purging election will be subject to the special tax and interest charge rules treating the gain as an excess distribution, as described above. As a result of the purging election, the Redeeming U.S. Holder will have a new basis and holding period in the Greenland Shares acquired pursuant to the terms of rights for purposes of the PFIC rules.

The QEF election is made on a shareholder-by-shareholder basis and, once made, can be revoked only with the consent of the IRS. A Redeeming U.S. Holder generally makes a QEF election by attaching a completed IRS Form 8621 (Return by a Shareholder of a Passive Foreign Investment Company or Qualified Electing Fund), including the information provided in a PFIC annual information statement, to a timely filed U.S. federal income tax return for the tax year to which the election relates. Retroactive QEF elections generally may be made only by filing a protective statement with such return and if certain other conditions are met or with the consent of the IRS. Redeeming U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability and tax consequences of a retroactive QEF election under their particular circumstances.

In order to comply with the requirements of a QEF election, a Redeeming U.S. Holder must receive a PFIC annual information statement from Greenland. If Greenland determines it is a PFIC for any taxable year, it will endeavor to provide to a Redeeming U.S. Holder such information as the IRS may require, including a PFIC annual information statement, in order to enable the Redeeming U.S. Holder to make and maintain a QEF election. However, there is no assurance that Greenland will have timely knowledge of its status as a PFIC in the future or of the required information to be provided.

If a Redeeming U.S. Holder has made a QEF election with respect to Greenland’s shares, and the special tax and interest charge rules do not apply to such shares (because of a timely QEF election for Greenland’s first taxable year as a PFIC in which the Redeeming U.S. Holder holds (or is deemed to hold) such shares or a purge of the PFIC taint pursuant to a purging election, as described above), any gain recognized on the sale of such shares generally will be taxable as capital gain and no interest charge will be imposed. As discussed above, Redeeming U.S. Holders of a QEF are currently taxed on their pro rata shares of its earnings and profits, whether or not distributed. In such case, a subsequent distribution of such earnings and profits that were previously included in income generally should not be taxable as a dividend to such Redeeming U.S. Holders. The tax basis of a Redeeming U.S. Holder’s shares in a QEF will be increased by amounts that are included in income, and decreased by amounts distributed but not taxed as dividends, under the above rules. Similar basis adjustments apply to property if by reason of holding such property the Redeeming U.S. Holder is treated under the applicable attribution rules as owning shares in a QEF.

Although a determination as to Greenland’s PFIC status will be made annually, a determination that Greenland is a PFIC for any particular year will generally apply for subsequent years to a Redeeming U.S. Holder who held Greenland Shares, Rights or Warrants while Greenland was a PFIC, whether or not it meets the test for PFIC status in

84

those subsequent years. A Redeeming U.S. Holder who makes the QEF election discussed above for Greenland’s first taxable year as a PFIC in which the Redeeming U.S. Holder holds (or is deemed to hold) Greenland Shares and receives the requisite PFIC annual information statement, however, will not be subject to the PFIC tax and interest charge rules discussed above in respect to such shares. In addition, such Redeeming U.S. Holder will not be subject to the QEF inclusion regime with respect to such shares for any taxable year of Greenland that ends within or with a taxable year of the Redeeming U.S. Holder and in which Greenland is not a PFIC. On the other hand, if the QEF election is not effective for each of Greenland’s taxable years in which it was a PFIC and the Redeeming U.S. Holder holds (or is deemed to hold) Greenland Shares, the PFIC rules discussed above will continue to apply to such shares unless the holder makes a purging election, as described above, and pays the tax and interest charge with respect to the gain inherent in such shares attributable to the pre-QEF election period.

Alternatively, if a Redeeming U.S. Holder, at the close of its taxable year, owns shares in a PFIC that are treated as marketable stock, the Redeeming U.S. Holder may make a mark-to-market election with respect to such shares for such taxable year. If the Redeeming U.S. Holder makes a valid mark-to-market election for the first taxable year of the Redeeming U.S. Holder in which the Redeeming U.S. Holder holds (or is deemed to hold) Greenland Shares and for which Greenland is determined to be a PFIC, such holder generally will not be subject to the PFIC rules described above in respect to its shares. Instead, in general, the Redeeming U.S. Holder will include as ordinary income each year the excess, if any, of the fair market value of its shares at the end of its taxable year over the adjusted basis in its shares. The Redeeming U.S. Holder also will be allowed to take an ordinary loss in respect of the excess, if any, of the adjusted basis of its shares over the fair market value of its shares at the end of its taxable year (but only to the extent of the net amount of previously included income as a result of the mark-to-market election). The Redeeming U.S. Holder’s basis in its shares will be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss amounts, and any further gain recognized on a sale or other taxable disposition of the shares will be treated as ordinary income. Currently, a mark-to-market election may not be made with respect to Greenland’s Warrants and likely not its rights.

The mark-to-market election is available only for stock that is regularly traded on a national securities exchange that is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Nasdaq Capital Market, or on a foreign exchange or market that the IRS determines has rules sufficient to ensure that the market price represents a legitimate and sound fair market value. Redeeming U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability and tax consequences of a mark-to-market election in respect to Greenland’s shares under their particular circumstances.

If Greenland is a PFIC and, at any time, has a foreign subsidiary that is classified as a PFIC, Redeeming U.S. Holders generally would be deemed to own a portion of the shares of such lower-tier PFIC, and generally could incur liability for the deferred tax and interest charge described above if Greenland receives a distribution from, or disposes of all or part of its interest in, the lower-tier PFIC or the Redeeming U.S. Holders otherwise were deemed to have disposed of an interest in the lower-tier PFIC. Greenland will endeavor to cause any lower-tier PFIC to provide to a Redeeming U.S. Holder the information that may be required to make or maintain a QEF election with respect to the lower-tier PFIC. However, there is no assurance that Greenland will have timely knowledge of the status of any such lower-tier PFIC. In addition, Greenland may not hold a controlling interest in any such lower-tier PFIC and thus there can be no assurance it will be able to cause the lower-tier PFIC to provide the required information. Redeeming U.S. Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax issues raised by lower-tier PFICs.

A Redeeming U.S. Holder that owns (or is deemed to own) shares in a PFIC during any taxable year of the Redeeming U.S. Holder, may have to file an IRS Form 8621(whether or not a QEF or market-to-market election is made) and such other information as may be required by the U.S. Treasury Department.

The application of the PFIC rules is extremely complex. Greenland shareholders who are considering participating in the Redemption and/or selling, transferring or otherwise disposing of their Greenland Shares, Rights and/or Warrants should consult with their tax advisors concerning the application of the PFIC rules in their particular circumstances.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations to Non-U.S. Holders

This section is addressed to Redeeming Non-U.S. Holders (as defined below) of Greenland Shares that elect to have their Greenland Shares redeemed for cash. For purposes of this discussion, a “Redeeming Non-U.S. Holder” is a

85

beneficial owner (other than a partnership or entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that so redeems its Greenland Shares and is not a Redeeming U.S. Holder.

Except as otherwise discussed in this section, a Redeeming Non-U.S. Holder who elects to have its Greenland Shares redeemed will generally be treated in the same manner as a U.S. shareholder for U.S. federal income tax purposes. See the discussion above under “— U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations to U.S. Holders.”

Any Redeeming Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any capital gain recognized as a result of the exchange unless:

•        such shareholder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year in which the Redemption takes place and certain other conditions are met; or

•        such shareholder is engaged in a trade or business within the United States and any gain recognized in the exchange is treated as effectively connected with such trade or business (and, if an income tax treaty applies, the gain is attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by such holder in the United States), in which case the Redeeming Non-U.S. Holder will generally be subject to the same treatment as a Redeeming U.S. Holder with respect to the exchange, and a corporate Redeeming Non-U.S. Holder may be subject to an additional branch profits tax at a 30% rate (or lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty).

With respect to any Redemption treated as a distribution rather than a sale, any amount treated as dividend income to a Redeeming Non-U.S. Holder will generally not be subject to U.S. tax unless such dividends received by a Redeeming Non-U.S. Holder are effectively connected with such holder’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business (and, if an income tax treaty applies, such dividends are attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by the Redeeming Non-U.S. Holder in the United States). Dividends that are effectively connected with the Redeeming Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business generally will be taxed as discussed above under “— U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations to U.S. Holders — Tax Treatment of the Redemption — In General.” In addition, dividends received by a corporate Redeeming Non-U.S. Holder that are effectively connected with the holder’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business may also be subject to an additional branch profits tax at a rate of 30% or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty.

Non-U.S. holders of Greenland Shares considering exercising their Redemption Rights should consult their own tax advisors as to whether the Redemption of their Greenland Shares will be treated as a sale or as a distribution under the Code.

Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act

Under the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”) and U.S. Treasury regulations and administrative guidance thereunder, a 30% United States federal withholding tax may apply to certain income paid to (i) a foreign financial institution (as defined in FATCA), whether such foreign financial institution is the beneficial owner or an intermediary, unless such foreign financial institution agrees to verify, report and disclose its United States account holders (as specifically defined in FATCA) and meets certain other specified requirements or (ii) a non-financial foreign entity, whether such non-financial foreign entity is the beneficial owner or an intermediary, unless such entity provides a certification that the beneficial owner of the payment does not have any substantial United States owners or provides the name, address and taxpayer identification number of each such substantial United States owner and certain other specified requirements are met. In certain cases, the relevant foreign financial institution or non-financial foreign entity may qualify for an exemption from, or be deemed to be in compliance with, these rules. Redeeming Non-U.S. Holders resident in a jurisdiction that has an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different rules. Redeeming Non-U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding this legislation and whether it may be relevant to their disposition of Greenland Shares, Rights or Warrants.

Backup Withholding

In general, proceeds received from the exercise of Redemption Rights will be subject to backup withholding for a non-corporate Redeeming U.S. Holder that:

•        fails to provide an accurate taxpayer identification number;

86

•        is notified by the IRS regarding a failure to report all interest or dividends required to be shown on his or her federal income tax returns; or

•        in certain circumstances, fails to comply with applicable certification requirements.

A Redeeming Non-U.S. Holder generally may eliminate the requirement for information reporting and backup withholding by providing certification of its foreign status, under penalties of perjury, on a duly executed applicable IRS Form W-8 or by otherwise establishing an exemption.

Any amount withheld under these rules will be creditable against the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s or Redeeming Non-U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability or refundable to the extent that it exceeds this liability, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS and other applicable requirements are met.

Regulatory Matters

The Business Combination and the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement are not subject to any additional federal or state regulatory requirement or approval, except for filings with the British Virgin Islands necessary to effectuate the Articles Amendment Proposal and filings required of solicitation materials pursuant to Rule 14a-12 of the Exchange Act.

Required Vote with Respect to the Business Combination Proposal

The approval of the Business Combination Proposal will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Greenland Shares that are present and vote at the Special Meeting. If any of the Business Combination Proposal, the Articles Amendment Proposal or the Director Election Proposal fails to receive the required shareholder approval, the Business Combination will not be completed.

The Sponsor, directors and officers have agreed to vote any Greenland Shares owned by them in favor of the Business Combination pursuant to the Insider Letter Agreement. As of the Record Date, such shareholders beneficially owned 1,360,000 Greenland Shares, excluding shares issuable upon the exercise of Warrants or the conversion of Rights. As of the date hereof, the Sponsor and Greenland’s directors and officers have not purchased any additional Greenland Shares.

Recommendation of Greenland Board with Respect to the Business Combination Proposal

THE GREENLAND BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT THE GREENLAND SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION PROPOSAL.

PROPOSAL 2: THE 2019 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN PROPOSAL

General

On July 8, 2019, the Greenland Board adopted the Incentive Plan, subject to the approval of Greenland’s shareholders. The purpose of the Incentive Plan is to attract and retain personnel of the highest caliber, provide incentive for officers, directors, employees and other key persons and to promote the well-being of the Company, it is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders to provide to officers, directors, employees, consultants and other independent contractors who perform services for the Company, through the granting of share options, restricted share, deferred shares or other share-based awards, the opportunity to participate in the value and/or appreciation in value of the Greenland Shares. Accordingly, the Greenland Board believes that the Incentive Plan (a) will provide the Company with significant means to attract and retain talented personnel, (b) will result in saving cash, which otherwise would be required to maintain current employees and adequately attract and reward personnel and others who perform services for the Company, and (c) consequently, will prove beneficial to the Company’s ability to be competitive.

If approved by the shareholders of Greenland at the Special Meeting, the Incentive Plan will become effective on the consummation of the Business Combination. The Greenland Board is recommending that its shareholders approve the material terms of the Incentive Plan as described below.

Summary of the Incentive Plan

The following is summary of the principal features of the Incentive Plan. The summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Incentive Plan, which is set forth in Annex B.

Purpose

The purpose of the Incentive Plan is to enable the Company to offer its employees, officers, directors and consultants whose past, present and/or potential future contributions to the Company have been, are, or will be important to its success, an opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company. The various types of incentive awards that may be provided under the plan are intended to enable the Company to respond to changes in compensation practices, tax laws, accounting regulations and the size and diversity of its business.

Administration

The Incentive Plan is administered by the Greenland Board or by a committee of the Greenland Board. In this summary, references to the “committee” are to the committee administering the plan or, if no such committee is designated, the Greenland Board. The committee will be comprised solely of “non-employee” directors, as defined in Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Presently, the Incentive Plan is administered by the compensation committee. Subject to the provisions of the plan, the committee determines, among other things, the persons to whom from time to time awards may be granted, the specific type of awards to be granted, the number of shares subject to each award, share prices, any restrictions or limitations on the awards, and any vesting, exchange, surrender, cancellation, acceleration, termination, exercise or forfeiture provisions related to the awards.

Shares Subject to the Incentive Plan

Assuming the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal is approved, the number of Greenland Shares for issuance under the Incentive Plan will be equal to 10% of the sum of (i) the number of issued and outstanding Greenland Shares immediately after the Closing and (ii) the number of shares reserved under the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan. Shares subject to other awards that are forfeited or terminated will be available for future award grants under the Incentive Plan. If a holder pays the exercise price of a share option by surrendering any previously owned Greenland Shares or arranges to have the appropriate number of shares otherwise issuable upon exercise withheld to cover the withholding tax liability associated with the share option exercise, the shares surrendered by the holder or withheld by the Company will not be available for future award grants under the plan.

Under the Incentive Plan, in the event of a change in the number of Greenland Shares as a result of a dividend on Greenland Shares payable in Greenland Shares, forward split or reverse split or other extraordinary or unusual event that results in a change in the Greenland Shares as a whole, the committee shall determine whether such change equitably requires an adjustment in the terms of any award in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits available under the plan or the aggregate number of shares reserved for issuance under the plan.

88

Eligibility

The Company may grant awards under the Incentive Plan to employees, officers, directors, and consultants who are deemed to have rendered, or to be able to render, significant services to the Company and who are deemed to have contributed, or to have the potential to contribute, to its success. An incentive share option may be granted under the plan only to a person who, at the time of the grant, is an employee of the Company or its subsidiaries. Based on the current number of employees and consultants of the Company and on the current size of the Greenland Board, the Company estimates that approximately 25 individuals are eligible for awards under the Incentive Plan.

Types of Awards

Options.    The Incentive Plan provides both for “incentive” share options as defined in Section 422 of the Code, and for options not qualifying as incentive options, both of which may be granted with any other share based award under the plan. The committee determines the exercise price per share of share purchasable under an incentive or non-qualified share option, which may not be less than 100% of the fair market value on the day of the grant or, if greater, the par value of a share. However, the exercise price of an incentive share option granted to a person possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of Company shares may not be less than 110% of the fair market value on the date of grant. The aggregate fair market value of all Greenland Shares with respect to which incentive share options are exercisable by a participant for the first time during any calendar year (under all of the Company’s plans), measured at the date of the grant, may not exceed $100,000.

An incentive share option may only be granted within 10 years from the effective date of the Incentive Plan. An incentive share option may only be exercised within ten years from the date of the grant, or within five years in the case of an incentive share option granted to a person who, at the time of the grant, owns shares possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of Company shares.

Subject to any limitations or conditions the committee may impose, share options may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time during the term of the share option by giving written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of Greenland Shares to be purchased. The notice must be accompanied by payment in full of the purchase price, either in cash or, if provided in the agreement, in Company securities or in a combination of the two.

Generally, share options granted under the plan may not be transferred other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and all share options are exercisable, during the holder’s lifetime, only by the holder, or in the event of legal incapacity or incompetency, the holder’s guardian or legal representative. However, a holder, with the approval of the committee, may transfer a non-qualified share option by gift to a family member of the holder or by domestic relations order to a family member of the holder or may transfer a non-qualified share option to an entity in which more than 50% of the voting interests are owned by family members of the holder or the holder.

Generally, if the holder is an employee, no share options granted under the plan may be exercised by the holder unless he or she is employed by the Company or one of its subsidiaries at the time of the exercise and has been so employed continuously from the time the share options were granted. However, in the event the holder’s employment is terminated due to disability or normal retirement, the holder may still exercise his or her vested share options for a period of 12 months, or such other greater or lesser period as the committee may determine, from the date of termination or until the expiration of the stated term of the share option, whichever period is shorter. Similarly, should a holder die while employed by the Company or a subsidiary, his or her legal representative or legatee under his or her will may exercise the decedent holder’s vested share options for a period of 12 months from the date of his or her death, or such other greater or lesser period as the Greenland Board or committee may determine, or until the expiration of the stated term of the share option, whichever period is shorter. If the holder’s employment is terminated for any reason other than death, disability or normal retirement, the share option will automatically terminate, except that if the holder’s employment is terminated by the Company without cause, then the portion of any share option that is vested on the date of termination may be exercised for the lesser of three months after termination of employment, or such other greater or lesser period as the committee may determine but not beyond the balance of the share option’s term.

Share appreciation rights.    Under the Incentive Plan, the Company may grant share appreciation rights to participants who have been, or are being, granted share options under the plan as a means of allowing the participants to exercise their share options without the need to pay the exercise price in cash, or the Company may grant them

89

alone and unrelated to an option. In conjunction with non-qualified share options, share appreciation rights may be granted either at or after the time of the grant of the non-qualified share options. In conjunction with incentive share options, share appreciation rights may be granted only at the time of the grant of the incentive share options. A share appreciation right entitles the holder to receive a number of Greenland Shares having a fair market value equal to the excess fair market value of one share over the exercise price of the related share option, multiplied by the number of shares subject to the share appreciation rights. The granting of a share appreciation right in tandem with a share option will not affect the number of Greenland Shares available for awards under the plan. In such event, the number of shares available for awards under the plan will, however, be reduced by the number of Greenland Shares acquirable upon exercise of the share option to which the share appreciation right relates.

Restricted Shares.    Under the Incentive Plan, the Company may award shares of restricted shares either alone or in addition to other awards granted under the plan. The committee determines the persons to whom grants of restricted shares are made, the number of shares to be awarded, the price (if any) to be paid for the restricted shares by the person receiving the shares from the Company, the time or times within which awards of restricted shares may be subject to forfeiture, the vesting schedule and rights to acceleration thereof, and all other terms and conditions of the restricted shares awards.

The Incentive Plan requires that all shares of restricted shares awarded to the holder remain in the Company’s physical custody until the restrictions have terminated and all vesting requirements with respect to the restricted shares have been fulfilled. The Company will retain custody of all dividends and distributions made or declared with respect to the restricted shares during the restriction period. A breach of any restriction regarding the restricted shares will cause a forfeiture of the restricted shares and any retained dividends and distributions. Except for the foregoing restrictions, the holder will, even during the restriction period, have all of the rights of a shareholder, including the right to vote the shares.

Other Share-Based Awards.    Under the Incentive Plan, the Company may grant other share-based awards, subject to limitations under applicable law that are denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on, or related to, Greenland Shares, as deemed consistent with the purposes of the plan. These other share-based awards may be in the form of purchase rights, Greenland Shares awarded that are not subject to any restrictions or conditions, convertible or exchangeable debentures or other rights convertible into Greenland Shares and awards valued by reference to the value of securities of, or the performance of, one of the Company’s subsidiaries. These other share-based awards may include performance shares or options, whose award is tied to specific performance criteria. These other share-based awards may be awarded either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with any other awards under the Incentive Plan or any of the Company’s other plans.

Accelerated Vesting and Exercisability

If any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires the ownership of shares of the Company that, together with the shares held by such person or group, constitutes more than 50% of the total fair market value or combined voting power of the shares of the Company, and the Greenland Board does not authorize or otherwise approve such acquisition, then immediately prior to the closing of such acquisition, the vesting periods of any and all share options and other awards granted and outstanding under the Incentive Plan shall be accelerated and all such share options and awards will immediately and entirely vest, and the respective holders thereof will have the immediate right to purchase and/or receive any and all shares subject to such share options and awards on the terms set forth in the plan and the respective agreements respecting such share options and awards. An increase in the percentage of shares owned by any one person, or persons acting as a group, as a result of a transaction in which the Company acquires its shares in exchange for property is not treated as an acquisition of shares.

The committee may, in the event of an acquisition by any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, together with acquisitions during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons, of assets from the Company that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than 50% of the total gross fair market value of all of the assets of the Company immediately before such acquisition or acquisitions, or if any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires the ownership of shares of the Company that, together with the shares held by such person or group, constitutes more than 50% of the total fair market value or combined voting power of the shares of the Company, which has been approved by the Greenland Board, (i) accelerate the vesting of any and all share options and other awards granted and outstanding under the Incentive Plan, or (ii) require a holder of any award granted under the plan to relinquish such award to the Company upon the tender by the Company to the

90

holder of cash in an amount equal to the repurchase value of such award. For this purpose, gross fair market value means the value of the assets of the Company, or the value of the assets being disposed of, determined without regard to any liabilities associated with such assets.

Notwithstanding any provisions of the Incentive Plan or any award granted thereunder to the contrary, no acceleration shall occur with respect to any award to the extent such acceleration would cause the plan or an award granted thereunder to fail to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

Other Limitations

The committee may not modify or amend any outstanding option or share appreciation right to reduce the exercise price of such option or share appreciation right, as applicable, below the exercise price as of the date of grant of such option or share appreciation right. In addition, no option or share appreciation right with a lower exercise price may be granted in exchange for, or in connection with, the cancellation or surrender of an option or share appreciation right or other award with a higher exercise price.

Withholding Taxes

When an award is first included in the gross income of the holder for federal income tax purposes, the holder will be required to make arrangements regarding the payment of all federal, state and local withholding tax requirements, including by settlement of such amount in Greenland Shares. The obligations of the Company under the Incentive Plan are contingent on such arrangements being made.

Term and Amendments

Unless terminated by the Greenland Board, the Incentive Plan shall continue to remain effective until no further awards may be granted and all awards granted under the plan are no longer outstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, grants of incentive share options may be made only until ten years from the initial effective date of the plan. The Greenland Board may at any time, and from time to time, amend the plan or any award agreement, but no amendment will be made that would impair the rights of a holder under any agreement entered into pursuant to the plan without the holder’s consent.

Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following discussion of the federal income tax consequences of participation in the Incentive Plan is only a summary of the general rules applicable to the grant and exercise of share options and other awards and does not give specific details or cover, among other things, state, local and foreign tax treatment of participation in the plan. The information contained in this section is based on present law and regulations, which are subject to being changed prospectively or retroactively.

Incentive Share options.    Participants will recognize no taxable income upon the grant of an incentive share option. The participant generally will realize no taxable income when the incentive share option is exercised. The excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise of an incentive share option over the exercise price will be treated as an item of adjustment for a participant’s taxable year in which the exercise occurs and may result in an alternative minimum tax liability for the participant. The Company will not qualify for any deduction in connection with the grant or exercise of incentive share options. Upon a disposition of the shares after the later of two years from the date of grant or one year after the transfer of the shares to a participant, the participant will recognize the difference, if any, between the amount realized and the exercise price as long-term capital gain or long-term capital loss, as the case may be, if the shares are capital assets.

If shares acquired upon the exercise of an incentive share option is disposed of prior to the expiration of the holding periods described above, the participant will recognize ordinary compensation income in the taxable year of disposition in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise over the exercise price paid for the shares; and the Company will qualify for a deduction equal to any amount recognized, subject to the limitation that the compensation be reasonable.

91

Non-Qualified Share options.    With respect to non-qualified share options:

•        upon grant of the share option, the participant will recognize no income provided that the exercise price was not less than the fair market value of Greenland Shares on the date of grant;

•        upon exercise of the share option, if the Greenland Shares are not subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, the participant will recognize ordinary compensation income in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise over the exercise price, and the Company will qualify for a deduction in the same amount, subject to the requirement that the compensation be reasonable; and

•        the Company will be required to comply with applicable federal income tax withholding requirements with respect to the amount of ordinary compensation income recognized by the participant.

On a disposition of the shares, the participant will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized and the sum of the exercise price and the ordinary compensation income recognized. The gain or loss will be treated as capital gain or loss if the shares are capital assets and as short-term or long-term capital gain or loss, depending upon the length of time that the participant held the shares.

If the shares acquired upon exercise of a non-qualified share option are subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, the participant will recognize ordinary income at the time when the substantial risk of forfeiture is removed, unless the participant timely files under Section 83(b) of the Code to elect to be taxed on the receipt of shares, and the Company will qualify for a corresponding deduction at that time. The amount of ordinary income will be equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares at the time the income is recognized over the amount, if any, paid for the shares.

Share appreciation rights.    Upon the grant of a share appreciation right, the participant recognizes no taxable income and the Company receives no deduction. The participant recognizes ordinary income and the Company receives a deduction at the time of exercise equal to the cash and fair market value of shares payable upon the exercise.

Restricted shares.    A participant who receives restricted shares will recognize no income on the grant of the restricted shares and the Company will not qualify for any deduction. At the time the restricted shares is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, a participant will recognize ordinary compensation income in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the restricted shares at the time the restriction lapses over the consideration paid for the restricted shares. The holding period to determine whether the participant has long-term or short-term capital gain or loss begins when the restriction period expires, and the tax basis for the shares will generally be the fair market value of the shares on this date.

A participant may elect under Section 83(b) of the Code, within 30 days of the transfer of the restricted shares, to recognize ordinary compensation income on the date of transfer in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value on the date of transfer of the shares of restricted shares, as determined without regard to the restrictions, over the consideration paid for the restricted shares. If a participant makes an election under Section 83(b), the holding period will commence on the day after the date of transfer and the tax basis will equal the fair market value of shares, as determined without regard to the restrictions, on the date of transfer.

On a disposition of the shares, a participant will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized and the tax basis for the shares.

Whether or not the participant makes an election under Section 83(b), the Company generally will qualify for a deduction, subject to the reasonableness of compensation limitation, equal to the amount that is taxable as ordinary income to the participant, in the taxable year in which the income is included in the participant’s gross income. The income recognized by the participant will be subject to applicable withholding tax requirements.

Dividends paid on restricted shares that is subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture generally will be treated as compensation that is taxable as ordinary compensation income to the participant and will be deductible by the Company subject to the reasonableness limitation. If, however, the participant makes a Section 83(b) election, the dividends will be treated as dividends and taxable as ordinary income to the participant, but will not be deductible by the Company.

Other Share-Based Awards.    The federal income tax treatment of other share-based awards will depend on the nature and restrictions applicable to the award.

92

Certain Awards Deferring or Accelerating the Receipt of Compensation.    Section 409A of the Code, enacted as part of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, imposes certain new requirements applicable to “nonqualified deferred compensation plans.” If a nonqualified deferred compensation plan subject to Section 409A fails to meet, or is not operated in accordance with, these new requirements, then all compensation deferred under the plan may become immediately taxable. Share appreciation rights and deferred share awards that may be granted under the Incentive Plan may constitute deferred compensation subject to the Section 409A requirements. It is the Company’s intention that any award agreement governing awards subject to Section 409A will comply with these rules.

New Plan Benefits

The benefits that will be awarded or paid in connection with the increase in available shares under the Incentive Plan are not currently determinable. Awards granted under the Incentive Plan are within the discretion of the committee and the committee has not determined any future awards or who might receive them. The closing sale price of Greenland Shares was $10.37 per share on September 9, 2019.

Required Vote With Respect to the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal

The approval of the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Greenland Shares that are present and vote on such Proposal at the Special Meeting. If the Business Combination is not approved, the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal will not be presented at the Special Meeting. The 2019 Equity Incentive Plan will only become effective if the Business Combination is completed.

Recommendation of the Greenland Board with Respect to the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal

THE GREENLAND BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT THE GREENLAND
SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE 2019 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN PROPOSAL.

93

PROPOSAL 3: THE DIRECTOR ELECTION PROPOSAL

Election of Directors

Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, Greenland has agreed to take all necessary action, including causing the directors of Greenland to resign, so that effective at the Closing, the entire Greenland Board will consist of five individuals, a majority of whom will be independent directors in accordance with the requirements of Nasdaq. The directors will be classified into two classes, with each director holding office for a two-year term or until the next annual meeting of shareholders at which such director’s class is up for election and where his or her successor is elected and qualified.

Greenland is proposing the election by shareholders of the following five individuals, who will take office immediately following the Closing and who will constitute all the members of the Greenland Board: (i) Min Zhang, Everett Xiaolin Wang and Hong Liang Lu as Class I directors and (ii) Peter Zuguang Wang and Yanming Liu as Class II directors.

If elected, the Class I directors will serve until the first annual meeting of shareholders of the Company to be held following the date of Closing and the Class II directors will serve until the second annual meeting of shareholders of the Company following the date of Closing. Each of Messrs. Liu, Zhang, Everett Xiaolin Wang and Lu are expected qualify as an independent director under Nasdaq listing standards.

There are no family relationships among any of the Company’s directors and executive officers, except that Peter Zuguang Wang is the father of Raymond Z. Wang, the current Chief Executive Officer and President of Zhongchai Holding, who would serve as Greenland’s Chief Executive Officer and President following the Closing.

Subject to other provisions in the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the number of directors that constitutes the entire Greenland Board will be fixed solely by resolution of the Greenland Board. Each director of the Company will hold office until the expiration of the term for which he or she is elected and until his or her successor has been duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation, death, disqualification or removal.

Under the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and subject to the rights of holders of preferred shares with respect to the election of directors, the directors of the Company will be divided into two classes as nearly equal in size as is practicable, hereby designated Class I and Class II. The Greenland Board may assign members of the Greenland Board already in office to such classes at the time such classification becomes effective. The term of office of the initial Class I directors of Company will expire at the first regularly-scheduled annual meeting of its shareholders and the term of office of the initial Class II directors of Company will expire at the second annual meeting of its shareholders. At each annual meeting of shareholders, commencing with the first regularly-scheduled annual meeting of shareholders, each of the successors elected to replace the directors of a class of director whose term will have expired at such annual meeting will be elected to hold office until the second annual meeting next succeeding his or her election and until his or her respective successor will have been duly elected and qualified.

If the number of directors is hereafter changed, any increase or decrease in directorships will be so apportioned among the classes by the Greenland Board as to make all classes as nearly equal in number as is practicable, provided that no decrease in the number of directors constituting the Greenland Board will shorten the term of any incumbent director.

Subject to the rights of holders of any series of preferred shares with respect to the election of directors, for so long as the Greenland Board is classified, any director may be removed from office by the shareholders of the Company only for cause. Vacancies occurring on the Greenland Board for any reason and newly created directorships resulting from an increase in the authorized number of directors may be filled only by vote of a majority of the remaining members of the Greenland Board, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director, and not by shareholders of Company. A person so elected by the Greenland Board to fill a vacancy or newly created directorship will hold office until the next election of the class for which such director will have been chosen and until his or her successor will be duly elected and qualified.

The Greenland Board knows of no reason why any of the nominees will be unavailable or decline to serve as a director. The information presented below is as of the Record Date and is based in part on information furnished by the nominees.

PROPOSAL 4: THE ARTICLES AMENDMENT PROPOSAL

Summary of the Proposal

General

The Greenland Board has approved an amendment to the Memorandum and Articles of Association of Greenland to replace Article 23 thereof (the “Articles Amendment”). This summary of the Articles Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the proposed amendment to the Memorandum and Articles of Association attached to this proxy statement as Annex C.

The following table sets forth a summary of the principal changes proposed to be made between the existing Memorandum and Articles of Association and the proposed post-Business Combination Memorandum and Articles of Association. This summary is qualified by reference to the complete text of the proposed Articles Amendment, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement as Annex C. All shareholders are encouraged to read the proposed Articles Amendment in its entirety for a more complete description of its terms.

 

Current Memorandum and
Articles of Association

 

Proposed Post-Business Combination Memorandum and Articles of Association

Name

 

The current Memorandum and Articles of Association provides that our name is “Greenland Acquisition Corporation”.

 

The post-Business Combination memorandum and articles of association will provide that our name is “Greenland Technologies Holding Corporation”.

Provisions Specific to a Blank Check Company

 

The current Memorandum and Articles of Association sets forth various provisions related to our operations as a blank check company prior to the consummation of an initial business combination.

 

The post-Business Combination memorandum and articles of association will delete all such provisions because, upon consummation of the Business Combination, we will cease to be a blank check company. In addition, the provisions requiring that the proceeds from the IPO be held in a trust account until a business combination or liquidation of the Company and the terms governing the Company’s consummation of a proposed business combination will not be applicable following consummation of the Business Combination and thus will be deleted.

Reasons for the Articles Amendment

The Greenland Board believes that it would be in the best interests of Greenland, in connection with the completion of the Business Combination, to effect the Articles Amendment. For the following reasons we propose to adopt the Articles Amendment:

Name Change

The parties to the Share Exchange Agreement have agreed that the name of the Company should reflect its business following the Closing, including the Company’s focus on its new “green” robotic technology, and therefore propose to change the Company’s corporate name from “Greenland Acquisition Corporation” to “Greenland Technologies Holding Corporation”.

Provisions Related to a Blank Check Company

The elimination of certain provisions related to our status as a blank check company is desirable because these provisions will serve no purpose following the Business Combination. For example, these proposed amendments remove the requirement to dissolve Greenland and allow it to continue as a corporate entity with perpetual existence following consummation of the Business Combination. Perpetual existence is the usual period of existence for companies and the Greenland Board believes it is the most appropriate period for the Company following the Business

97

Combination. In addition, certain other provisions in the current Memorandum and Articles of Association require that proceeds from the IPO be held in the Trust Account until a business combination or liquidation of Greenland has occurred. These provisions cease to apply once the Business Combination is consummated.

Regulatory Approvals; Third Party Consents

The Articles Amendment will not breach any covenants or agreements binding upon Greenland and will not be subject to any additional federal or state regulatory requirements, except compliance with the laws of the British Virgin Islands to file the Articles Amendment with the registrar of corporate affairs.

Required Vote with Respect to the Articles Amendment Proposal

The approval of the Articles Amendment Proposal will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Greenland Shares that are present and vote at the Special Meeting.

If the Business Combination Proposal is not approved, the Articles Amendment Proposal will not be presented at the Special Meeting. The Articles Amendment Proposal will only become effective if the Business Combination is completed. Approval of the Articles Amendment Proposal is a condition to Closing under the Share Exchange Agreement.

Recommendation of the Greenland Board with Respect to the Articles Amendment Proposal

THE GREENLAND BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE
“FOR” THE ARTICLES AMENDMENT PROPOSAL.

98

PROPOSAL 5: THE ADJOURNMENT PROPOSAL

Overview

At the Special Meeting, Greenland will ask its shareholders to consider and vote upon a proposal to adjourn the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if Greenland determines an adjournment to be reasonably necessary or appropriate to approve one or more Proposals at the Special Meeting. In no event will Greenland solicit proxies to adjourn the Special Meeting or complete the Business Combination beyond the date by which it may properly do so.

Consequences if the Adjournment Proposal is Not Approved

If the Adjournment Proposal is not approved by Greenland’s shareholders, the Greenland Board may not be able to adjourn the Special Meeting to a later date if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if it is determined by Greenland that more time is necessary or appropriate to approve one or more of the Proposals at the Special Meeting. It is important for you to note that in the event that the Business Combination Proposal, the Director Election Proposal or the Articles Amendment Proposal do not receive the requisite vote for approval, then we may not be able to complete the Business Combination. If we do not complete the Business Combination and fail to complete an initial business combination by October 25, 2019 (or April 27, 2020 if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination), unless Greenland submits and its shareholders approve an additional extension of such date, we will be required to dissolve and liquidate the Trust Account by returning the then remaining funds in such account to the Public Shareholders.

Required Vote with Respect to the Adjournment Proposal

The Adjournment Proposal, if presented, will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Greenland Shares that are present and vote on such Proposal at the Special Meeting

The Adjournment Proposal will not be submitted if the Business Combination Proposal is approved.

Recommendation of the Greenland Board with respect to the Adjournment Proposal

THE Greenland BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT Greenland SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE ADJOURNMENT PROPOSAL, IF PRESENTED.

99

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Introduction

Greenland is providing the following unaudited pro forma combined financial information to aid you in your analysis of the financial aspects of the Business Combination.

The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of May 31, 2019 gives pro forma effect to the Business Combination as if it had been consummated as of that date. The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations for the six months ended May 31, 2019 and year ended November 30, 2018 give pro forma effect to the Business Combination as if it had occurred as of the earliest period presented. This information should be read together with Zhongchai Holding’s and Greenland’s respective audited and unaudited financial statements and related notes, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Zhongchai Holding,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Greenland” and other financial information included elsewhere in this proxy statement.

The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of May 31, 2019 has been prepared using the following:

•        Zhongchai Holding’s unaudited historical consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2019, as included elsewhere in this proxy statement; and

•        Greenland’s unaudited historical balance sheet as of May 31, 2019, as included elsewhere in this proxy statement.

The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the six months ended May 31, 2019 has been prepared using the following:

•        Zhongchai Holding’s unaudited historical consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2019, as included elsewhere in this proxy statement; and

•        Greenland’s unaudited historical statement of operations for the six months ended May 31, 2019, as included elsewhere in this proxy statement.

The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the year ended November 30, 2018 has been prepared using the following:

•        Zhongchai Holding’s audited historical consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2018, as included elsewhere in this proxy statement; and

•        Greenland’s audited historical statement of operations for the period from December 28, 2017 (inception) through November 30, 2018, as included elsewhere in this proxy statement.

Description of the Transaction

The Business Combination consists of a series of transactions pursuant to which Greenland will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Zhongchai Holding, in exchange for the issuance of 7,500,000 Greenland Shares to the Zhongchai Equity Holder.

Accounting for the Transaction

The Business Combination will be accounted for as a reverse merger, accompanied by a recapitalization, in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Greenland will be treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. This determination was primarily based on Zhongchai Equity Holder controlling the majority of the relative voting rights, Zhongchai Equity Holder being expected to have the largest interest of the combined company, Zhongchai Holding’s senior management comprising the senior management of the combined company, the relative size of Zhongchai Holding compared to Greenland, and Zhongchai Holding’s operations comprising the ongoing operations of the combined company. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination will be treated as the equivalent of Zhongchai Holding issuing stock for the net assets of Greenland, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Greenland will be stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination will be those of Zhongchai Holding.

100

Basis of Pro Forma Presentation

The historical financial information has been adjusted to give pro forma effect to events that are related and/or directly attributable to the Business Combination, are factually supportable, and as it relates to the unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations, are expected to have a continuing impact on the results of the combined company. The adjustments presented on the unaudited pro forma combined financial statements have been identified and presented to provide relevant information necessary for an accurate understanding of the combined company upon consummation of the Business Combination.

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information is for illustrative purposes only. The financial results may have been different had the companies always been combined. You should not rely on the unaudited pro forma combined financial information as being indicative of the historical financial position and results that would have been achieved had the companies always been combined or the future financial position and results that the combined company will experience. Zhongchai Holding and Greenland have not had any historical relationship prior to the Business Combination. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information has been prepared assuming two alternative levels of Redemption into cash of Greenland Shares:

•        Scenario 1 — Assuming no Redemptions for cash:    This presentation assumes that no Greenland shareholders exercise Redemption Rights with respect to their Public Shares upon consummation of the Business Combination; and

•        Scenario 2 — Assuming Redemptions of 3,821,622 Public Shares for cash:    This presentation assumes that Greenland shareholders exercise their Redemption Rights with respect to a maximum of 3,821,622 Public Shares upon consummation of the Business Combination at a Redemption Price of approximately $10.19 per share. The maximum Redemption amount is derived from a minimum net tangible asset requirement of $5,000,001 required pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, after giving effect to the payments to redeeming shareholders. There could be more Public Shares redeemed as long as Greenland has at least $5,000,001 of net tangible assets upon consummation of the Business Combination. Scenario 2 includes all adjustments contained in Scenario 1 and presents additional adjustments to reflect the effect of the maximum Redemptions.

Included in the shares outstanding and weighted average shares outstanding as presented in the pro forma combined financial statements are 7,500,000 Greenland Shares to be issued to the Zhongchai Equity Holder under Scenarios 1 and 2.

As a result of the Business Combination and immediately following the Closing, assuming no Greenland shareholders elect to redeem their shares for cash, the Zhongchai Equity Holder is expected to own approximately 52.1% of the outstanding Greenland Shares, the PIPE Investors are expected to own approximately 4.2% of the outstanding Greenland Shares, an independent third party that is a China-based entity that acted as finder in connection with the Business Combination is expected to own approximately 0.3% of the outstanding Greenland Shares and the current holders of Greenland Shares are expected to own approximately 43.4% of the outstanding Greenland Shares (approximately 33.6% held by the Public Shareholders, approximately 0.2% held by Chardan and approximately 9.6% held by the Sponsor), based on the number of Greenland shares outstanding as of May 31, 2019 (in each case, not giving effect to any shares issuable to them upon exercise of Warrants). As a result, Zhongchai Equity Holder will be the single largest shareholder of Greenland following consummation of the Business Combination with no current shareholder of Greenland owning more than 10% of the issued and outstanding Greenland Shares.

If 3,821,622 Greenland Shares are redeemed for cash, which assumes the maximum Redemption of Greenland’s shares and providing for a minimum net tangible asset value of $5,000,001 after giving effect to payments to redeeming shareholders, the Zhongchai Equity Holder is expected to own approximately 71.0% of the outstanding Greenland Shares, the PIPE Investors are expected to own approximately 5.5% of the outstanding Greenland Shares, an independent third party that is a China-based entity that acted as finder in connection with the Business Combination is expected to own approximately 0.5% of the outstanding Greenland Shares and the current holders of Greenland Shares are expected to own approximately 23.0% of the outstanding Greenland Shares (approximately 9.7% held by the Public Shareholders, approximately 0.2% held by Chardan and approximately 13.1% held by the Sponsor) to be outstanding immediately after the Business Combination (in each case, not giving effect to any shares issuable to them upon exercise of Warrants).

Pro Forma Adjustments to the Unaudited Combined Balance Sheet

(A)    Derived from the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of Zhongchai Holding as of June 30, 2019.

(B)    Derived from the unaudited balance sheet of Greenland as of May 31, 2019.

(1)    Reflects the release of cash from marketable securities held in the Trust Account.

(2)    Reflects the repayment of promissory notes payable to the Sponsor at the closing of the Business Combination.

(3)    Reflects the payment of fees and expenses related to the Business Combination, including the deferred underwriting fee of approximately $1.76 million (under Scenario 1) or $0.99 million (under Scenario 2), legal, financial advisory, accounting and other professional fees. The direct, incremental costs of the Business Combination related to the legal, financial advisory, accounting and other professional fees of approximately $1.0 million is reflected as an adjustment to accumulated deficit and is not shown as an adjustment to the statement of operations since it is a nonrecurring charge resulting directly from the Business Combination.

(4)    In Scenario 1, which assumes no Greenland shareholders exercise their Redemption Rights, all Greenland Shares previously subject to Redemption for cash amounting to $38.9 million would be transferred to permanent equity. In Scenario 2, which assumes the same facts as described in Items 1 and 2 above, but also assumes the maximum number of Greenland Shares are redeemed for cash by Greenland shareholders, $38.9 million would be paid out in cash. The $38.9 million, which is the amount required to redeem 3,821,622 Greenland Shares, represents the maximum Redemption amount to leave a minimum of $5.0 million of net tangible assets from Greenland, including the cash to be released from Greenland’s Trust Account, after giving effect to payments to redeeming shareholders based on a consummation of the Business Combination on May 31, 2019.

(5)    Reflects recapitalization of Zhongchai Holding through (a) the contribution of all the share capital in Zhongchai Holding to Greenland, (b) the issuance of 7,500,000 Greenland Shares and (c) the elimination of the historical accumulated deficit of Greenland, the accounting acquiree.

(6)    Reflects the issuance of 50,000 Greenland Shares, valued at $0.51 million (or approximately $10.15 per share) to an independent third party that is a China-based entity that acted as finder in connection with the Business Combination as compensation for services provided. The amount is reflected as an adjustment to accumulated deficit and is not shown as an adjustment to the statement of operations since it is a nonrecurring charge resulting directly from the Business Combination.

(7)    Reflects the issuance of 585,366 Greenland Shares, valued at $6.0 million (or approximately $10.25 per share) to the PIPE Investors.

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, 4,682,000 rights would convert into 468,200 Greenland Shares.

Pro Forma Adjustments to the Unaudited Combined Statements of Operations

(A)    Derived from the unaudited consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income of Zhongchai Holding for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

(B)    Derived from the unaudited statement of operations of Greenland for the six months ended May 31, 2019.

(C)    Derived from the audited consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income of Zhongchai Holding for the year ended December 31, 2018.

(D)    Derived from the audited statement of operations of Greenland for the period from December 28, 2017 (inception) through November 30, 2018.

(1)    Represents an adjustment to eliminate direct, incremental costs of the Business Combination which are reflected in the historical consolidated financial statements of Zhongchai and Greenland in the amount of $0.15 million and $0.15 million, respectively, for the six months ended May 31, 2019. There were no such amounts recorded for the year ended November 30, 2018.

(2)    Represents an adjustment to eliminate interest income and unrealized loss on marketable securities held in the Trust Account as of the beginning of the period.

(3)    To record the tax effect of the pro forma adjustments applied at Zhongchai Holding’s normalized blended statutory income tax rate of 15.0%.

(4)    The calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net income (loss) per share assumes that the IPO occurred as of the earliest period presented. In addition, as the Business Combination is being reflected as if it had occurred on this date, the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net income (loss) per share assumes that the shares have been outstanding for the entire period presented. This calculation is retroactively adjusted to eliminate the number of shares redeemed in the Business Combinations for the entire period.

The following presents the calculation of basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding. The computation of diluted income (loss) per share excludes the effect of (1) Warrants to purchase 2,341,000 Greenland Shares and (2) a unit purchase option exercisable for 240,000 Greenland Shares, Warrants to purchase 120,000 Greenland Shares and Rights that convert into 24,000 Greenland Shares, because the inclusion of these securities would be anti-dilutive.

INFORMATION ABOUT GREENLAND

Overview

Greenland was incorporated as a British Virgin Islands business company with limited liability on December 28, 2017 as a blank check company for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more target businesses.

Significant Activities Since Inception

On July 27, 2018, Greenland completed its IPO of 4,000,000 Units. Each Unit consists of one Greenland Share, one Right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one Greenland Share upon consummation of Greenland’s initial business combination and one Warrant, with each Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one-half of one Greenland Share for $11.50 per whole Greenland Share. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to Greenland of $40,000,000. Pursuant to an option granted to Chardan, the representative of the several underwriters in the IPO, on July 27, 2018, the underwriters partially exercised the option and purchased 400,000 Units, generating gross proceeds of $4,000,000. As a result of the underwriters not exercising the over-allotment in full, 50,000 Founder Shares were forfeited, resulting in an aggregate of 1,100,000 Founder Shares issued and outstanding. In addition, Greenland completed the sale of 282,000 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit in a private placement to the Sponsor and Chardan, generating gross proceeds of $2,820,000. A total of $44,000,000 of the net proceeds from the IPO and the Private Placement Units were deposited in the Trust Account established for the benefit of the Public Shareholders.

Effective July 24, 2019, Greenland extended the period of time Greenland has to consummate a business combination. In connection therewith, the Sponsor deposited into the Trust Account an aggregate of $440,000, representing $0.10 per Public Share, in order to extend the period of time Greenland has to consummate a business combination by three months to October 25, 2019. The Sponsor will have the option, but no obligation, to extend such period of time an additional two times, each by an additional three months, up to April 27, 2020, by depositing an aggregate of an additional $880,000 into the Trust Account, representing an additional $0.20 per Public Share, in connection with such additional extensions.

Effecting a Business Combination

General

Greenland is not presently engaged in, and Greenland will not engage in, any substantive commercial business until it completes the Business Combination with Zhongchai Holding or another target business.

Fair Market Value of Target Business

Pursuant to Nasdaq listing rules, the target business or businesses that Greenland acquires must collectively have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance of the funds in the Trust Account (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned) at the time of the execution of a definitive agreement for Greenland’s initial business combination. The fair market value of the target or targets will be determined by the Greenland Board based upon one or more standards generally accepted by the financial community, such as discounted cash flow valuation or value of comparable businesses. Our shareholders will be relying on the business judgment of the Greenland Board, which will have significant discretion in choosing the standard used to establish the fair market value of the target or targets, and different methods of valuation may vary greatly in outcome from one another. As discussed in the Section entitled “Proposal 1: The Business Combination Proposal — Satisfaction of 80% Test,” the Greenland Board determined that this test was met in connection with the Business Combination.

Ability to Extend Time to Complete Business Combination

We will have until October 25, 2019 to consummate our initial business combination. However, if we anticipate that we may not be able to consummate our initial business combination by October 25, 2019, we may, by resolution of the Greenland Board if requested by the Sponsor, extend the period of time to consummate a business combination up to two times, each by an additional three months (until April 27, 2020), subject to the Sponsor depositing additional funds into the Trust Account as set out below. Pursuant to the terms of the Memorandum and Articles of Association and the Trust Agreement, in order for the time available for us to consummate our initial business combination to be extended, the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees, upon five days advance notice prior to the applicable deadline,

108

must deposit into the Trust Account $440,000 ($0.10 per Public Share), up to an aggregate of $880,000, or $0.20 per Public Share, on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each three month extension. In the event that we receive notice from the Sponsor five days prior to the applicable deadline of its wish for us to effect an extension, we intend to issue a press release announcing such intention at least three days prior to the applicable deadline. In addition, we intend to issue a press release the day after the applicable deadline announcing whether or not the funds had been timely deposited. The Sponsor and its affiliates or designees are not obligated to fund the Trust Account to extend the time for us to complete our initial business combination.

Shareholder Approval of the Business Combination

Greenland is seeking shareholder approval of the Business Combination at the Special Meeting to which this proxy statement relates and, in connection with such meeting, holders of Public Shares may redeem their shares for cash in accordance with the procedures described in this proxy statement. Such Redemption Rights will be effected under the Memorandum and Articles of Association and the laws of the British Virgin Islands. Greenland’s Sponsor and its directors and officers have agreed in the Insider Letter Agreement (i) to vote (A) the Founder Shares (all of which are held by the Sponsor), (B) the Greenland Shares underlying the Private Placement Units and (C) any other Greenland Shares owned by the Sponsor or Greenland’s directors and officers, in favor of the Business Combination; and (ii) to not redeem any Greenland Shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination, including the Business Combination, or a vote to amend the provisions of the Memorandum and Articles of Association relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity. If the Business Combination is not completed, then Public Shareholders electing to exercise their Redemption Rights will not receive such payments and their Public Shares will not be redeemed.

Greenland will complete the Business Combination (or any other proposed business combination, if the Business Combination is not completed) only if (i) Greenland has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon the completion of the Business Combination (or such other business combination), after giving effect to payments to Public Shareholders who exercise their Redemption Rights and (ii) a majority of the outstanding Greenland Shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. Greenland chose the net tangible asset threshold of $5,000,001 to ensure that it would avoid being subject to Rule 419 promulgated under the Securities Act.

To ensure that it can meet the net tangible asset condition at Closing, Greenland may seek additional equity financing in connection with the Business Combination involving the issuance of additional equity securities of Greenland. In the event that Greenland issues additional equity in connection with such equity financing, the ownership percentage in the Company belonging to the Public Shareholders will be reduced.

Greenland may be able to complete the Business Combination even if a majority of Greenland’s Public Shareholders do not agree with the Business Combination and have redeemed their shares or if Greenland has entered into privately negotiated agreements for investors to sell their shares to Greenland’s Sponsor, directors and officers, advisors or their affiliates.

Please refer to the section entitled “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Greenland” for more information.

Liquidation if No Business Combination

Unless Greenland submits, and Greenland shareholders approve, an additional extension, if the Business Combination (or combination with another target business) is not completed by October 25, 2019 (or April 27, 2020 if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination), such condition will trigger Greenland’s automatic winding up, dissolution and liquidation pursuant to the terms of the Memorandum and Articles of Association. As a result, this has the same effect as if Greenland had formally gone through a voluntary liquidation procedure under the Companies Act. Accordingly, no vote would be required from Greenland’s shareholders to commence such a voluntary winding up, dissolution and liquidation.

However, if at any time we are deemed insolvent for the purposes of the Insolvency Act (i.e. (i) we fail to comply with the requirements of a statutory demand that has not been set aside under Section 157 of the Insolvency Act; (ii) execution or other process issued on a judgment, decree or order of a British Virgin Islands Court in favor of a creditor of the company is returned wholly or partly unsatisfied; or (iii) either the value of the company’s liabilities exceeds its assets, or the company is unable to pay its debts as they fall due), we are required to immediately enter insolvent liquidation. In these circumstances, a liquidator will be appointed who will give notice to our creditors

109

inviting them to submit their claims for payment, by notifying known creditors (if any) who have not submitted claims and by placing a public advertisement in at least one newspaper published in the British Virgin Islands newspaper and in at least one newspaper circulating in the location where the company has its principal place of business, and taking any other steps the liquidator considers appropriate, after which our assets would be distributed. Following the process of insolvent liquidation, the liquidator will complete its final report and accounts and will then notify the Registrar of Corporate Affairs in the British Virgin Islands (the “Registrar”). The liquidator may determine that he requires additional time to evaluate creditors’ claims (particularly if there is uncertainty over the validity or extent of the claims of any creditors). Also, a creditor or shareholder may file a petition with the British Virgin Islands Court which, if successful, may result in our liquidation being subject to the supervision of that court. Such events might delay distribution of some or all of our assets to our Public Shareholders. In such liquidation proceedings, the funds held in our Trust Account may be included in our estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of our shareholders. To the extent any such claims deplete the Trust Account we cannot assure you we will be able to return to our Public Shareholders the amounts otherwise payable to them.

If we are deemed insolvent, then there are also limited circumstances where prior payments made to shareholders or other parties may be deemed to be a “voidable transaction” for the purposes of the Insolvency Act. A voidable transaction would be, for these purposes, payments made as “unfair preferences” or “transactions at an undervalue.” Where a payment was a risk of being a voidable transaction, a liquidator appointed over an insolvent company could apply to the British Virgin Islands Court for an order, inter alia, for the transaction to be set aside as a voidable transaction in whole or in part.

Our initial shareholders have waived their right to participate in any liquidation distribution with respect to the Founder Shares or the shares underlying the Private Placement Units. We will pay the costs of our liquidation and distribution of the Trust Account from our remaining assets outside of the Trust Account. In addition, the Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to us, for all claims of creditors to the extent that we fail to obtain executed waivers from such entities in order to protect the amounts held in trust, except as to any claims under our indemnity of the underwriters of the IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. However, we cannot assure you that the liquidator will not determine that he or she requires additional time to evaluate creditors’ claims (particularly if there is uncertainty over the validity or extent of the claims of any creditors). We also cannot assure you that a creditor or shareholder will not file a petition with the British Virgin Islands Court which, if successful, may result in our liquidation being subject to the supervision of that court. Such events might delay distribution of some or all of our assets to our Public Shareholders.

Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, Zhongchai Holding has agreed that it and its affiliates will not have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in Greenland’s Trust Account held for its Public Shareholders, and agreed not to, and waived any right to, make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) except, in each case with respect to claims that Zhongchai Holding or its affiliates may have in the future against Greenland’s assets or funds that are not held in the Trust Account (other than distributions to Public Shareholders) and claims against any other person (or any affiliate thereof ) that is party to an alternative business combination consummated by Greenland.

If Greenland is unable to complete the Business Combination and expends all of the net proceeds of Greenland’s IPO, other than the proceeds deposited in the Trust Account and without taking into account interest, if any, earned on the Trust Account, the per-share distribution from the Trust Account would be approximately $10.19 based on the value of the Trust Account as of May 31, 2019.

The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could, however, become subject to the claims of Greenland’s creditors which would be prior to the claims of the Public Shareholders. Although Greenland has obtained and will continue to seek to have all vendors, including prospective target businesses or other entities Greenland engages, execute agreements with Greenland waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account for the benefit of the Public Shareholders, there is no guarantee that they will execute such agreements or even if they execute such agreements that they would be prevented from bringing claims against the Trust Account, including but not limited to, fraudulent inducement, breach of fiduciary responsibility or other similar claims, as well as claims challenging the enforceability of the waiver, in each case in order to gain an advantage with a claim against Greenland’s assets, including the funds held in the Trust Account.

The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to Greenland if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to us, or a prospective target business with which Greenland has discussed entering into a

110

transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below (i) $10.00 per Public Share (or such higher amount then held in trust) or (ii) such lesser amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under Greenland’s indemnity of the underwriters of Greenland’s IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third party claims. Additionally, if Greenland is forced to file a bankruptcy case or an involuntary bankruptcy case is filed against it which is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy law and may be included in Greenland’s bankruptcy estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of the shareholders. To the extent any bankruptcy claims deplete the Trust Account, Greenland cannot assure you it will be able to return to the Public Shareholders at least $10.00 per Public Share (or such higher amount then held in trust).

Employees

Greenland has three officers who are its only employees. These individuals are not obligated to devote any specific number of hours to Greenland’s matters and intend to devote only as much time as they deem necessary to its affairs. Greenland does not intend to have any full-time employees prior to the completion of a business combination. Upon completion of the Business Combination, the employment of these officers will terminate.

Facilities

Greenland maintains its principal executive offices at Suite 906, Tower W1, Oriental Plaza, No. 1 East Chang’an Street, Dongcheng District, Beijing, People’s Republic of China 100738. Greenland considers its current office space, combined with the other office space otherwise available to its officers, adequate for its current operations. Upon completion of the Business Combination, the principal executive offices of the Company will be located at 11-F, Building #12, Sunking Plaza, Gaojiao Road, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China.

Legal Proceedings

There are no legal proceedings pending against Greenland.

Mr. Chen received a master degree from the University of Waterloo in Canada and a Ph.D. from McMaster University in Canada. We believe Mr. Pu is well qualified to serve on the Greenland Board because of his extensive operating and management experience.

Number and Terms of Office of Officers and Directors

The Greenland Board is divided into two classes with only one class of directors being elected in each year and each class (except for those directors appointed prior to our first annual meeting of shareholders) serving a two-year term. The term of office of the first class of directors, consisting of Ms. Cui and Mr. Pu, will expire at the first annual meeting. The term of office of the second class of directors, consisting of Messrs. Liu and Chen, will expire at the second annual meeting. We do not currently intend to hold an annual meeting of shareholders until after we consummate our initial business combination.

Our officers are elected by the Greenland Board and serve at the discretion of the Greenland Board, rather than for specific terms of office. The Greenland Board is authorized to appoint persons to the offices set forth in the Memorandum and Articles of Association as it deems appropriate. The Memorandum and Articles of Association provides that our officers may consist of a Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, Vice Presidents, Secretaries and Treasurer and such other offices as may be determined by the Greenland Board.

Director Independence

Nasdaq requires that a majority of the Greenland Board must be composed of “independent directors,” which is defined generally as a person other than an officer or employee of the company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship, which, in the opinion of the Greenland Board would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

Ms. Cui and Messrs. Pu and Chen are our independent directors. Our independent directors have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present. Any affiliated transactions will be on terms no less favorable to us than could be obtained from independent parties. Any affiliated transactions must be approved by a majority of our independent and disinterested directors.

113

Executive Compensation

Commencing on the date that our securities were first listed on Nasdaq through the earlier of consummation of our initial business combination and our liquidation, we pay an affiliate of a member of the Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month, which funds are used to pay for office space, utilities, secretarial and administrative services. We believe that such fees are at least as favorable as we could have obtained from an unaffiliated third party for such services. Except as set forth above, no compensation will be paid to the Sponsor, our officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, prior to or in connection with the consummation of our initial business combination. Additionally, these individuals are reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations.

After the completion of our initial business combination, members of our management team who remain with us, may be paid consulting, management or other fees from the Company with any and all amounts being fully disclosed to shareholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer materials or proxy solicitation materials furnished to our shareholders in connection with a proposed business combination. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time, as it will be up to the directors of the post-combination business to determine executive and director compensation. Any compensation to be paid to our officers will be determined, or recommenced, to the Greenland Board for determination, either by a committee constituted solely by independent directors or by a majority of the independent directors on the Greenland Board.

We do not intend to take any action to ensure that members of our management team maintain their positions with us after the consummation of our initial business combination, although it is possible that some or all of our officers and directors may negotiate employment or consulting arrangements to remain with us after the initial business combination. The existence or terms of any such employment or consulting arrangements to retain their positions with us may influence our management’s motivation in identifying or selecting a target business but we do not believe that the ability of our management to remain with us after the consummation of our initial business combination will be a determining factor in our decision to proceed with any potential business combination. We are not party to any agreements with our officers and directors that provide for benefits upon termination of employment.

Audit Committee

We have established an audit committee of the Greenland Board. Ms. Cui and Messrs. Pu and Chen serve as members of our audit committee. Ms. Cui serves as chairman of the audit committee. Under the Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules, we are required to have three members of the audit committee all of whom must be independent. Ms. Cui and Messrs. Pu and Chen are independent.

Each member of the audit committee is financially literate and the Greenland Board has determined that Ms. Cui qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in applicable SEC rules.

Responsibilities of the audit committee include:

•        the appointment, compensation, retention, replacement, and oversight of the work of the independent auditors and any other independent registered public accounting firm engaged by us;

•        pre-approving all audit and non-audit services to be provided by the independent auditors or any other registered public accounting firm engaged by us, and establishing pre-approval policies and procedures;

•        reviewing and discussing with the independent auditors all relationships the auditors have with us in order to evaluate their continued independence;

•        setting clear hiring policies for employees or former employees of the independent auditors;

•        setting clear policies for audit partner rotation in compliance with applicable laws and regulations;

•        obtaining and reviewing a report, at least annually, from the independent auditors describing (i) the independent auditor’s internal quality-control procedures and (ii) any material issues raised by the most recent internal quality-control review, or peer review, of the audit firm, or by any inquiry or investigation by governmental or professional authorities, within, the preceding five years respecting one or more independent audits carried out by the firm and any steps taken to deal with such issues;

114

•        reviewing and approving any related party transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC prior to us entering into such transaction; and

•        reviewing with management, the independent auditors, and our legal advisors, as appropriate, any legal, regulatory or compliance matters, including any correspondence with regulators or government agencies and any employee complaints or published reports that raise material issues regarding our financial statements or accounting policies and any significant changes in accounting standards or rules promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the SEC or other regulatory authorities.

Compensation Committee

Subject to the requirement of law or the Nasdaq market rules, we have established a compensation committee of the Greenland Board. The members of our compensation committee are Ms. Cui and Mr. Pu. Mr. Pu serves as chairman of the compensation committee. We have adopted a compensation committee charter, which details the principal functions of the compensation committee, including:

•        reviewing and approving on an annual basis the corporate goals and objectives relevant to our Chief Executive Officer’s compensation, evaluating our Chief Executive Officer’s performance in light of such goals and objectives and determining and approving the remuneration (if any) of our Chief Executive Officer’s based on such evaluation in executive session at which the Chief Executive Officer is not present;

•        reviewing and approving the compensation of all of our other officers;

•        reviewing our executive compensation policies and plans;

•        implementing and administering our incentive compensation equity-based remuneration plans;

•        assisting management in complying with our proxy statement and annual report disclosure requirements;

•        approving all special perquisites, special cash payments and other special compensation and benefit arrangements for our officers and employees;

•        producing a report on executive compensation to be included in our annual proxy statement; and

•        reviewing, evaluating and recommending changes, if appropriate, to the remuneration for directors.

The charter also provides that the compensation committee may, in its sole discretion, retain or obtain the advice of a compensation consultant, legal counsel or other adviser and will be directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of any such adviser. However, before engaging or receiving advice from a compensation consultant, external legal counsel or any other adviser, the compensation committee will consider the independence of each such adviser, including the factors required by Nasdaq and the SEC.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

None of our officers currently serves, or in the past year has served, as a member of the Greenland Board or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more officers serving on the Greenland Board.

Director Nominations

We do not have a standing nominating committee, though we intend to form a corporate governance and nominating committee following the Closing. In accordance with Rule 5605(e)(2) of the Nasdaq rules, a majority of the independent directors may recommend a director nominee for selection by the Greenland Board. The Greenland Board believes that the independent directors can satisfactorily carry out the responsibility of properly selecting or approving director nominees without the formation of a standing nominating committee. The directors who shall participate in the consideration and recommendation of director nominees are Ms. Cui and Messrs. Pu and Chen. In accordance with Rule 5605(e)(1)(A) of the Nasdaq rules, all such directors are independent. As there is no standing nominating committee, we do not have a nominating committee charter in place.

115

The Greenland Board will also consider director candidates recommended for nomination by our shareholders during such times as they are seeking proposed nominees to stand for election at the next annual meeting of shareholders (or, if applicable, a special meeting of shareholders). Our shareholders that wish to nominate a director for election to the Greenland Board should follow the procedures set forth in the Memorandum and Articles of Association.

We have not formally established any specific, minimum qualifications that must be met or skills that are necessary for directors to possess. In general, in identifying and evaluating nominees for director, the Greenland Board considers educational background, diversity of professional experience, knowledge of our business, integrity, professional reputation, independence, wisdom, and the ability to represent the best interests of our shareholders.

The Greenland Board is divided into two classes with only one class of directors being elected in each year and each class serving a two-year term. The term of office of the first class of directors, consisting of Ms. Cui and Mr. Pu, will expire at the first annual meeting. The term of office of the second class of directors, consisting of Messrs. Liu and Chen, will expire at the second annual meeting.

Code of Ethics

We have adopted a code of ethics that applies to all of our executive officers, directors and employees. The code of ethics codifies the business and ethical principles that govern all aspects of our business.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF GREENLAND

Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated on December 28, 2017 in the British Virgin Islands with limited liability (meaning our shareholders have no liability, as members of the Company, for the liabilities of the Company over and above the amount already paid for their shares) formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more target businesses. We intend to effectuate our Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Units that occurred simultaneously with the completion of the IPO, our capital stock, debt or a combination of cash, shares and debt.

The issuance of additional shares in a business combination:

•        may significantly dilute the equity interest of investors who would not have pre-emption rights in respect of any such issue;

•        may subordinate the rights of holders of Greenland Shares if the rights, preferences, designations and limitations attaching to the preferred shares are created by amendment of the Memorandum and Articles of Association by resolution of the Greenland Board and preferred shares are issued with rights senior to those afforded the Greenland Shares;

•        could cause a change in control if a substantial number of Greenland Shares are issued, which may affect, among other things, our ability to use our net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and could result in the resignation or removal of our present officers and directors;

•        may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of us by diluting the share ownership or voting rights of a person seeking to obtain control of us; and

•        may adversely affect prevailing market prices for the Greenland Shares.

Similarly, if we issue debt securities or otherwise incur significant indebtedness, it could result in:

•        default and foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after our initial business combination are insufficient to repay our debt obligations;

•        acceleration of our obligations to repay the indebtedness even if we make all principal and interest payments when due if we breach certain covenants that require the maintenance of certain financial ratios or reserves without a waiver or renegotiation of that covenant;

•        our immediate payment of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if the debt security is payable on demand;

•        our inability to obtain necessary additional financing if any document governing such debt contains covenants restricting our ability to obtain such financing while the debt security is outstanding;

•        our inability to pay dividends on the Greenland Shares;

•        using a substantial portion of our cash flow to pay principal and interest on our debt, which will reduce the funds available for dividends on the Greenland Shares if declared, expenses, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes;

•        limitations on our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in our business and in the industry in which we operate;

•        increased vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic, industry and competitive conditions and adverse changes in government regulation; and

•        limitations on our ability to borrow additional amounts for expenses, capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt service requirements, execution of our strategy and other purposes and other disadvantages compared to our competitors who have less debt.

We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete a business combination will be successful.

Results of Operations

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities from inception to May 31, 2019 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for the IPO, described below, and identifying a target company for a business combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our Business Combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held after the IPO. We are incurring expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses in connection with completing a business combination.

For the three and six months ended May 31, 2019, we incurred a net loss of $101,136 and $89,254, respectively, which consisted of interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $256,667 and $514,684, respectively, an unrealized gain on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $21,989 and $7,343, respectively, offset by the change in the value of the deferred underwriting fee liability of $16,425 and $16,189, respectively, and operating costs of $363,367 and $595,092, respectively.

For the period from December 28, 2017 (inception) through November 30, 2018, we had a net loss of $66,784, which consisted of operating costs of $372,998, offset by interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $315,911, an unrealized loss on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $8,524 and a change in the value of the deferred underwriting fee liability of $1,173.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On July 27, 2018, we consummated the IPO of 4,400,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit, which includes a partial exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 400,000 Units at $10.00 per Unit, generating aggregate gross proceeds of $44,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, we consummated the sale of 282,000 Private Placement Units to the Sponsor and Chardan at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $2,820,000.

For the period from December 28, 2017 (inception) through November 30, 2018, cash used in operating activities was $426,265, resulting primarily from a net loss of $66,784, interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $315,911, an unrealized loss on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $8,524 an a change in the value of the deferred underwriting fee liability of $1,173. Changes in operating assets and liabilities used $53,267 of cash.

Following the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Units, a total of $44,000,000 was placed in the Trust Account and we had $1,035,797 of cash held outside of the Trust Account, after payment of costs related to the IPO, and available for working capital purposes. We incurred $2,752,449 in transaction costs, including $1,320,000 of underwriting fees, $978,314 of deferred underwriting fees and $454,135 of other costs.

For the six months ended May 31, 2019, cash used in operating activities was $549,858, resulting from a net loss of $89,254, interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $514,684, an unrealized gain on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $7,343 and a change in the value of the deferred underwriting fee liability of $16,189. Changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $45,234 of cash.

At May 31, 2019, we had marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $44,829,414. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account (excluding deferred underwriting commissions and interest to pay taxes) to acquire a target business or businesses and to pay our expenses relating thereto. To the extent that our capital stock is used in whole or in part as consideration to affect our business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account as well as any other net proceeds not expended will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses.

At May 31, 2019, we had cash of $344,842 held outside the Trust Account. We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, select the target business to acquire and structure, negotiate and complete a business combination.

On April 29, 2019, we issued an unsecured promissory note to the Sponsor, pursuant to which we borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $250,000. The note is non-interest bearing and payable upon the consummation of a Business Combination. As of May 31, 2019, there was $250,000 outstanding under the promissory note.

118

In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a business combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete a business combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that a business combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into Private Placement Units, at a price of $10.00 per Unit at the option of the lender.

We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However, if our estimate of undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a business combination is less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our Business Combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to consummate our Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our Public Shares upon consummation of our Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of our Business Combination. Following our Business Combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.

Effective July 24, 2019, Greenland extended the period of time Greenland has to consummate a business combination. In connection therewith, the Sponsor deposited into the Trust Account an aggregate of $440,000, representing $0.10 per Public Share, in order to extend the period of time Greenland has to consummate a business combination by three months to October 25, 2019. The Sponsor will have the option, but no obligation, to extend such period of time an additional two times, each by an additional three months, up to April 27, 2020, by depositing an aggregate of an additional $880,000 into the Trust Account, representing an additional $0.20 per Public Share, in connection with such additional extensions.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as
of May 31, 2019. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.

Contractual Obligations

We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than an agreement to pay Puhui Wealth Investment Management (Beijing) Co., Ltd., an affiliate of a member of the Sponsor a monthly fee of $10,000 for office space, utilities and administrative services to the Company. We began incurring these fees on July 24, 2018 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of the Business Combination and the Company’s liquidation.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following critical accounting policies:

Ordinary shares subject to Redemption

We account for our ordinary shares subject to possible conversion in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory Redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature Redemption Rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to Redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within our control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. Our ordinary

119

shares feature certain Redemption Rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, ordinary shares subject to possible Redemption are presented at Redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of our balance sheet.

Net loss per ordinary share

We apply the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. Ordinary shares subject to possible Redemption which are not currently redeemable and are not redeemable at fair value, have been excluded from the calculation of basic net loss per ordinary share since such shares, if redeemed, only participate in their pro rata share of the Trust Account earnings. Our net income is adjusted for the portion of income that is attributable to ordinary shares subject to Redemption, as these shares only participate in the earnings of the Trust Account and not our income or losses.

Recent accounting pronouncements

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our condensed financial statements.

DESCRIPTION OF GREENLAND’S SECURITIES

General

We are a company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands as a BVI business company (company number 1965087) and our affairs are governed by the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Companies Act and the common law of the British Virgin Islands. We are authorized to issue an unlimited number of both Greenland Shares of no par value and preferred shares of no par value. The following description summarizes certain terms of our shares as set out more particularly in the Memorandum and Articles of Association. Because it is only a summary, it may not contain all the information that is important to you.

Units

Each Unit consists of one Greenland Share, one Right and one redeemable Warrant. Each Right entitles the holder thereof to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one Greenland Share upon the consummation of an initial business combination. Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one-half (1/2) of one Greenland Share exercisable at $11.50 per full Greenland Share, subject to adjustment as described in this proxy statement. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a Warrant holder may exercise its Warrants only for a whole number of Greenland Shares. This means that only an even number of Warrants may be exercised at any given time by a Warrant holder. For example, if a Warrant holder holds one Warrant to purchase one-half (1/2) of one Greenland Share, such Warrant shall not be exercisable. If a Warrant holder holds two Warrants, such Warrants are exercisable for one Greenland Share.

Greenland Shares

As of the date of this proxy statement, there are 5,782,000 Greenland Shares outstanding.

Under the Companies Act, the Greenland Shares are deemed to be issued when the name of the shareholder is entered in our register of members. Our register of members is maintained by our transfer agent Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, which entered the name of Cede & Co. in our register of members on the closing of the IPO as nominee for each of the respective Public Shareholders. If (a) information that is required to be entered in the register of members is omitted from the register or is inaccurately entered in the register, or (b) there is unreasonable delay in entering information in the register, a shareholder of the Company, or any person who is aggrieved by the omission, inaccuracy or delay, may apply to the British Virgin Islands Courts for an order that the register be rectified, and the court may either refuse the application or order the rectification of the register, and may direct the Company to pay all costs of the application and any damages the applicant may have sustained.

At any general meeting on a show of hands every ordinary shareholder who is present in person (or, in the case of a shareholder being a corporation, by its duly authorized representative) or by proxy will have one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by shareholders. Voting at any meeting of the ordinary shareholders is by show of hands unless a poll is demanded. A poll may be demanded by shareholders present in person or by proxy if the shareholder disputes the outcome of the vote on a proposed resolution and the chairman shall cause a poll to be taken. Prior to the consummation of our initial business combination, the rights attaching to Greenland Shares (including those provisions designed to provide certain rights and protections to our ordinary shareholders) may only be amended by a resolution of persons holding 65% (or 50% if approved in connection with our initial business combination) of the outstanding Greenland Shares attending and voting on such amendment. Other provisions of the Memorandum and Articles of Association may be amended prior to the consummation of our initial business combination if approved by a majority of the votes of shareholders attending and voting on such amendment or by resolution of the directors. Following the consummation of, or in connection with, our initial business combination, the rights and obligations attaching to the Greenland Shares and other provisions of the Memorandum and Articles of Association may be amended if approved by a majority of the votes of shareholders attending and voting on such amendment or by resolution of the directors. The Greenland Board is divided into two classes, each of which will generally serve for a term of two years with only one class of directors being elected in each year. There is no cumulative voting with respect to the election of directors, with the result that the holders of more than 50% of the shares voted for the election of directors can elect all of the directors. Our shareholders are entitled to receive ratable dividends when, as and if declared by the Greenland Board out of funds legally available therefore.

If our shareholders want us to hold a meeting, they may requisition the directors to hold one upon the written request of members entitled to exercise at least 30 percent of the voting rights in respect of the matter for which the meeting is requested. Under British Virgin Islands law, we may not increase the required percentage to call a meeting above such 30 percent level.

121

The Memorandum and Articles of Association require us to provide our Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares upon the consummation of our initial business combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest (net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, subject to the limitations described herein and any limitations (including but not limited to cash requirements) agreed to in connection with the negotiation of terms of a proposed business combination. The amount in the Trust Account is $10.12 per Public Share, as of February 28, 2019, subject to increase of up to an additional $0.30 per Public Share in the event that the Sponsor elects to extend the period of time to consummate a business combination, as described in more detail in this proxy statement. The per-share amount we will distribute to investors who properly redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions we will pay to the underwriters. Our initial shareholders have agreed to waive their Redemption Rights with respect to their Founder Shares, shares underlying the Private Placement Units and Public Shares in connection with the consummation of our initial business combination. We intend to obtain shareholder approval in connection with our initial business combination, as is the case with respect to the Business Combination. If we so decide, we will, like many blank check companies, offer to redeem Public Shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules, as is the case with respect to this proxy statement. If we seek shareholder approval, we will consummate our initial business combination only if a majority of the votes of ordinary shareholders who being so entitled attend and vote at the Special Meeting are voted in favor of the business combination. However, the participation of the Sponsor, our officers, directors, advisors or their affiliates in privately-negotiated transactions (as described in this proxy statement), if any, could result in the approval of our initial business combination even if a majority of our Public Shareholders vote, or indicate their intention to vote, against such business combination. For purposes of seeking approval of the majority of the outstanding Greenland Shares, non-votes will have no effect on the approval of our initial business combination once a quorum is obtained. We are required to provide not less than 10 days nor more than 60 days prior written notice of any such meeting, if held, at which a vote shall be taken to approve our initial business combination, as is the case with respect to the Special Meeting.

If we seek shareholder approval in connection with our initial business combination, our initial shareholders have agreed to vote their Founder Shares, shares underlying the Private Placement Units and any Public Shares purchased during or after the offering in favor of our initial business combination. Each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a shareholder vote is not required for business or other legal reasons, we will, pursuant to the Memorandum and Articles of Association, offer to redeem our Public Shares pursuant to the tender offer rules of the SEC, and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to consummating our initial business combination. The Memorandum and Articles of Association requires these tender offer documents to contain substantially the same financial and other information about the initial business combination and the Redemption Rights as is required under the SEC’s proxy rules.

Pursuant to the Memorandum and Articles of Association, if we are unable to consummate our initial business combination by October 25, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination), we will, as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than five business days thereafter, distribute the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (net of taxes payable and less up to $50,000 of interest to pay liquidation expenses), pro rata to our Public Shareholders by way of Redemption and cease all operations except for the purposes of winding up of our affairs. This Redemption of Public Shareholders from the Trust Account will be effected as required by and by function of the Memorandum and Articles of Association and prior to any formal voluntary liquidation of the Company. Our initial shareholders have agreed to waive their right to receive liquidating distributions with respect to their Founder Shares and shares underlying the Private Placement Units if we fail to consummate our initial business combination by October 25, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination). However, if the Sponsor or any of our officers, directors or affiliates acquire Public Shares, they will be entitled to receive liquidating distributions with respect to such Public Shares if we fail to consummate our initial business combination within the required time period.

Our shareholders are entitled to receive ratable dividends when, as and if declared by the Greenland Board out of legally available funds. In the event of a liquidation or winding up of the Company after our initial business combination, our shareholders are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining available for distribution to them after payment of liabilities and after provision is made for each class of shares, if any, having preference over the Greenland Shares. Our shareholders have no preemptive or other subscription rights. There are no sinking fund provisions applicable to the Greenland Shares, except that we will provide our Public Shareholders with the Redemption Rights set forth above.

122

Founder Shares

The Founder Shares are identical to the other Greenland Shares, and holders of Founder Shares have the same shareholder rights as Public Shareholders, except that (i) the Founder Shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions, as described in more detail below, and (ii) our initial shareholders have agreed (A) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares, shares underlying the Private Placement Units and Public Shares in connection with the consummation of our initial business combination, (B) to waive their Redemption Rights with respect to their Founder Shares and shares underlying the Private Placement Units if we fail to consummate our initial business combination by October 25, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination), although they will be entitled to Redemption Rights with respect to any Public Shares they hold if we fail to consummate our initial business combination within such time period and (C) to waive their Redemption Rights with respect to their Founder Shares, shares underlying the Private Placement Units and Public Shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Memorandum and Articles of Association (a) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to redeem 100% of our Public Shares if we do not complete our initial business combination by October 25, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination) or (b) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity. Our initial shareholders have agreed to vote their Founder Shares, shares underlying the Private Placement Units and any Public Shares purchased during or after the offering in favor of our initial business combination and our officers and directors have also agreed to vote any Public Shares purchased during or after the offering in favor of our initial business combination.

Our initial shareholders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares (except to certain permitted transferees as described below) until, with respect to 50% of the Founder Shares, the earlier of (i) six months after the date of the consummation of our initial business combination or (ii) the date on which the closing price of the Greenland Shares equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after our initial business combination, with respect to the remaining 50% of the Founder Shares, upon six months after the date of the consummation of our initial business combination, or earlier, in either case, if, subsequent to our initial business combination, we consummate a subsequent liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of our shareholders having the right to exchange their Greenland Shares for cash, securities or other property.

Preferred Shares

The Memorandum and Articles of Association authorizes the creation and issuance without shareholder approval of an unlimited number of preferred shares divided into five classes, Class A through Class E, each with such designation, rights and preferences as may be determined by a resolution of the Greenland Board to amend the Memorandum and Articles of Association to create such designations, rights and preferences. We have five classes of preferred shares to give us flexibility as to the terms on which each class is issued. Unlike Delaware law, all shares of a single class must be issued with the same rights and obligations. Accordingly, starting with five classes of preferred shares will allow us to issue shares at different times on different terms. No preferred shares are currently issued or outstanding. Accordingly, the Greenland Board is empowered, without shareholder approval, to issue preferred shares with dividend, liquidation, redemption, voting or other rights, which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of Greenland Shares. However, the underwriting agreement prohibits us, prior to our initial business combination, from issuing preferred shares which participate in any manner in the proceeds of the Trust Account, or which vote as a class with the Greenland Shares on our initial business combination. We may issue some or all of the preferred shares to affect our initial business combination. In addition, the preferred shares could be utilized as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of us. Although we do not currently intend to issue any preferred shares, we may do so in the future.

The rights of preferred shareholders, once the preferred shares are in issue, may only be amended by a resolution to amend the Memorandum and Articles of Association provided such amendment is also approved by a separate resolution of a majority of the votes of preferred shareholders who being so entitled attend and vote at the class meeting of the relevant preferred class. If our preferred shareholders want us to hold a meeting of preferred shareholders (or of a class of preferred shareholders), they may requisition the directors to hold one upon the written request of preferred shareholders entitled to exercise at least 30 percent of the voting rights in respect of the matter (or class) for which the meeting is requested. Under British Virgin Islands law, we may not increase the required percentage to call a meeting above 30 percent.

123

Under the Companies Act there are no provisions which specifically prevent the issuance of preferred shares or any such other “poison pill” measures. The Memorandum and Articles of Association also do not contain any express prohibitions on the issuance of any preferred shares. Therefore, the directors, without the approval of the holders of Greenland Shares, may issue preferred shares that have characteristics that may be deemed anti-takeover. Additionally, such a designation of shares may be used in connection with plans that are poison pill plans. However, as noted above, under the Companies Act, a director in the exercise of his powers and performance of his duties is required to act honestly and in good faith in what the director believes to be the best interests of the Company.

Rights

Each holder of a Right will receive one-tenth (1/10) of one Greenland Share upon consummation of our initial business combination, even if the holder of such Right redeemed all Greenland Shares held by him, her or it in connection with the initial business combination or an amendment to the Memorandum and Articles of Association with respect to our pre-business combination activities. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of Rights in order to receive his, her or its additional Greenland Shares upon consummation of an initial business combination as the consideration related thereto has been included in the Unit purchase price paid for by investors. The shares issuable upon exchange of the Rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of ours).

If we enter into a definitive agreement for a business combination in which we will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of Rights to receive the same per share consideration the holders of the Greenland Share will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into ordinary share basis, and each holder of a Right will be required to affirmatively convert his, her or its Rights in order to receive the 1/10 share underlying each Right (without paying any additional consideration) upon consummation of the business combination. More specifically, the Right holder will be required to indicate his, her or its election to convert the Rights into underlying shares as well as to return the original Rights certificates to us.

If we are unable to complete an initial business combination within the required time period and we liquidate the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of Rights will not receive any of such funds with respect to their Rights, nor will they receive any distribution from our assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such Rights, and the Rights will expire worthless.

As soon as practicable upon the consummation of our initial business combination, we will direct registered holders of the Rights to return their Rights to our Rights agent. Upon receipt of the Rights, the Rights agent will issue to the registered holder of such Right(s) the number of full Greenland Shares to which he, she or it is entitled. We will notify registered holders of the Rights to deliver their Rights to the Rights agent promptly upon consummation of such business combination and have been informed by the Rights agent that the process of exchanging their Rights for Greenland Shares should take no more than a matter of days. The foregoing exchange of Rights is solely ministerial in nature and is not intended to provide us with any means of avoiding our obligation to issue the shares underlying the Rights upon consummation of our initial business combination. Other than confirming that the Rights delivered by a registered holder are valid, we will have no ability to avoid delivery of the shares underlying the Rights. Nevertheless, there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver securities to the holders of the Rights upon consummation of an initial business combination. Additionally, in no event will we be required to net cash settle the Rights. Accordingly, the Rights may expire worthless.

Although a company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands may issue fractional shares, it is not our intention to issue any fractional shares upon conversions of the Rights. In the event that any holder would otherwise be entitled to any fractional share upon exchange of his, her or its Rights, we will reserve the option, to the fullest extent permitted by the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Act and other applicable law, to deal with any such fractional entitlement at the relevant time as we see fit, which would include the rounding down of any entitlement to receive Greenland Shares to the nearest whole share (and in effect extinguishing any fractional entitlement), or the holder being entitled to hold any remaining fractional entitlement (without any share being issued) and to aggregate the same with any future fractional entitlement to receive shares in the Company until the holder is entitled to receive a whole number. Any rounding down and extinguishment may be done with or without any in lieu cash payment or other compensation being made to the holder of the relevant Rights, such that value received on exchange of the Rights may be considered less than the value that the holder would otherwise expect to receive. All holders of Rights shall be treated in the same manner with respect to the issuance of shares upon conversions of the Rights.

124

Redeemable Warrants

As of the date of this proxy statement, there are 4,400,000 Warrants and 282,000 Private Placement Warrants outstanding. Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one-half (1/2) of one Greenland Share at a price of $11.50 per full Share, subject to adjustment as described in this proxy statement, at any time commencing on the later of the completion of an initial business combination and July 24, 2019 (or April 24, 2020, if extended). Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a Warrant holder may exercise its Warrants only for a whole number of Greenland Shares. This means that only an even number of Warrants may be exercised at any given time by a Warrant holder.

However, no Warrants will be exercisable for cash unless we have an effective and current registration statement covering the issuance of the Greenland Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and a current prospectus relating to such Greenland Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the issuance of the Greenland Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants is not effective within 90 days from the closing of our initial business combination, Warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when we shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise Warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act. If an exemption from registration is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their Warrants on a cashless basis. The Warrants will expire five years from the closing of our initial business combination at 5:00 p.m., New York City time or earlier redemption.

The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Warrants except that such Private Placement Warrants are exercisable for cash (even if a registration statement covering the issuance of the Greenland Shares issuable upon exercise of such Warrants is not effective) or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option, and will not be redeemable by us, in each case so long as they are still held by the initial purchasers or their affiliates. In addition, for as long as the Private Placement Warrants are held by Chardan or its designees or affiliates, they may not be exercised after June 24, 2023.

We may call the Warrants for redemption (excluding the Private Placement Warrants but including any outstanding Warrants issued upon exercise of the unit purchase option issued to Chardan and/or its designees), in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per Warrant:

•        at any time while the Warrants are exercisable,

•        upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each Warrant holder,

•        if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Greenland Shares equals or exceeds $16.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations), for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period ending on the third trading business day prior to the notice of redemption to Warrant holders, and

•        if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the issuance of the Greenland Shares underlying such Warrants at the time of redemption and for the entire 30-day trading period referred to above and continuing each day thereafter until the date of redemption.

The right to exercise will be forfeited unless the Warrants are exercised prior to the date specified in the notice of redemption. On and after the redemption date, a record holder of a Warrant will have no further rights except to receive the redemption price for such holder’s Warrant upon surrender of such Warrant.

The redemption criteria for our Warrants have been established at a price which is intended to provide Warrant holders a reasonable premium to the initial exercise price and provide a sufficient differential between the then-prevailing share price and the Warrant exercise price so that if the share price declines as a result of our redemption call, the redemption will not cause the share price to drop below the exercise price of the Warrants.

If and when the Warrants become redeemable by us, we may not exercise our redemption right if the issuance of Greenland Shares upon exercise of the Warrants is not exempt from registration or qualification under applicable state blue sky laws or we are unable to effect such registration or qualification. We will use our best efforts to register or qualify such Greenland Shares under the blue sky laws of the state of residence in those states in which the Warrants were offered by us in the IPO.

125

If we call the Warrants for redemption as described above, our management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis.” In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the Warrants for that number of Greenland Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of Greenland Shares underlying the Warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the Warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” shall mean the average reported last sale price of the Greenland Shares for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of Warrants. Whether we will exercise our option to require all holders to exercise their Warrants on a “cashless basis” will depend on a variety of factors including the price of the Greenland Shares at the time the Warrants are called for redemption, our cash needs at such time and concerns regarding dilutive share issuances.

The Warrants will be issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as Warrant agent, and us. The warrant agreement provides that the terms of the Warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity or correct any defective provision, but requires the approval, by written consent or vote, of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding Warrants in order to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders.

The exercise price and number of Greenland Shares issuable on exercise of the Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, extraordinary dividend or our recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the Warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of Greenland Shares at a price below their respective exercise prices.

The Warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the Warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the Warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price (or on a cashless basis, if applicable), by certified or official bank check payable to us, for the number of Warrants being exercised. The Warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of Greenland Shares and any voting rights until they exercise their Warrants and receive Greenland Shares. After the issuance of Greenland Shares upon exercise of the Warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders.

Except as described above, no Warrants will be exercisable and we will not be obligated to issue Greenland Shares unless at the time a holder seeks to exercise such Warrant, a prospectus relating to the Greenland Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants is current and the Greenland Shares have been registered or qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the holder of the Warrants. Under the terms of the warrant agreement, we have agreed to use our best efforts to meet these conditions and to maintain a current prospectus relating to the Greenland Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants until the expiration of the Warrants. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to do so and, if we do not maintain a current prospectus relating to the Greenland Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, holders will be unable to exercise their Warrants and we will not be required to settle any such Warrant exercise. If the prospectus relating to the Greenland Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants is not current or if the Greenland Shares is not qualified or exempt from qualification in the jurisdictions in which the holders of the Warrants reside, we will not be required to net cash settle or cash settle the Warrant exercise, the Warrants may have no value, the market for the Warrants may be limited and the Warrants may expire worthless.

Warrant holders may elect to be subject to a restriction on the exercise of their Warrants such that an electing Warrant holder would not be able to exercise their Warrants to the extent that, after giving effect to such exercise, such holder would beneficially own in excess of 9.8% of the Greenland Shares outstanding.

No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Warrants. If, upon exercise of the Warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number the number of Greenland Shares to be issued to the Warrant holder.

Purchase Option

We have sold to Chardan an option to purchase up to 240,000 units at $11.50 per unit. The units issuable upon exercise of this option are identical to those sold in the IPO.

126

Dividends

We have not paid any cash dividends on Greenland Shares to date and do not intend to pay cash dividends prior to the completion of our initial business combination. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and general financial condition subsequent to completion of our initial business combination. The payment of any dividends subsequent to our initial business combination will be within the discretion of our then board of directors. It is the present intention of the Greenland Board to retain all earnings, if any, for use in our business operations and, accordingly, our board does not anticipate declaring any dividends in the foreseeable future.

Private Placement Units

The Private Placement Units (including the underlying shares, Private Placement Rights, Private Placement Warrants or Greenland Shares issuable upon conversion of such rights or exercise of such warrants) will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination (except, among other limited exceptions, to our officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with the Sponsor) and they will not be redeemable by us so long as they are held by members of the Sponsor or Chardan, respectively, or their permitted transferees. Otherwise, the Private Placement Units have terms and provisions that are identical the Units sold in the IPO except the Private Placement Warrants will be non-redeemable and may be exercised on a cashless basis, in each case so long as they continue to be held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by holders other than the holders who purchased such Units or their permitted transferees, the warrants will be redeemable by us and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the warrants included in the Units sold in the IPO. In addition, for as long as the Private Placement Warrants are held by Chardan or its designees or affiliates, they may not be exercised after July 24, 2023. The price of the Private Placement Units was determined in negotiations between the Sponsor and the underwriter for the IPO, with reference to the prices paid by initial shareholders for such Warrants in special purpose acquisition companies, which have recently consummated their initial public offerings.

Our Transfer Agent, Rights Agent and Warrant Agent

The transfer agent for the Greenland Shares, Rights agent for the Rights and Warrant agent for the Warrants is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company.

Memorandum and Articles of Association

As set forth in the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the objects for which are established are unrestricted and we shall have full power and authority to carry out any object not prohibited by the Companies Act or as the same may be revised from time to time, or any other law of the British Virgin Islands.

The Memorandum and Articles of Association contains provisions designed to provide certain rights and protections to our ordinary shareholders prior to the consummation of our initial business combination. These provisions cannot be amended without the approval of 65% (or 50% if approved in connection with our initial business combination) of the outstanding Greenland Shares attending and voting on such amendment. The Sponsor, who beneficially own approximately 23.5% of the Greenland Shares, will participate in any vote to amend the Memorandum and Articles of Association and will have the discretion to vote in any manner they choose. Prior to our initial business combination, if we seek to amend any provisions of the Memorandum and Articles of Association relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity, we will provide dissenting Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in connection with any such vote on any proposed amendments to the Memorandum and Articles of Association. We and our directors and officers have agreed not to propose any amendment to the Memorandum and Articles of Association (A) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to redeem 100% of our Public Shares if we do not complete our initial business combination by October 25, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination) or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, unless we provide our Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares upon approval of any such amendment at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest

127

(which interest shall be net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares. Our initial shareholders have agreed to waive any Redemption Rights with respect to any Founder Shares, any shares underlying Private Placement Units and any Public Shares they may hold in connection with any vote to amend the Memorandum and Articles of Association prior to our initial business combination.

Specifically, the Memorandum and Articles of Association provide, among other things, that:

•        If we are unable to consummate our initial business combination by October 25, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination), we will, as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than five business days thereafter, distribute the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (net of taxes payable, and less up to $50,000 of interest to pay liquidation expenses), pro rata to our Public Shareholders by way of Redemption and cease all operations except for the purposes of winding up of our affairs. This Redemption of Public Shareholders from the Trust Account shall be effected as required by function of the Memorandum and Articles of Association and prior to commencing any voluntary liquidation; and

•        except in connection with the consummation of our initial business combination, prior to our initial business combination, we may not issue additional shares that would entitle the holders thereof to (i) receive funds from the Trust Account or (ii) vote on any initial business combination;

•        although we do not intend to enter into our initial business combination with a target business that is affiliated with the Sponsor, our directors or officers, we are not prohibited from doing so. In the event we seek to complete our initial business combination with a target that is affiliated with the Sponsor, our officers or directors, we, or a committee of independent directors, would obtain an opinion from an independent accounting firm, or independent investment banking firm that our initial business combination is fair to our company from a financial point of view; and

•        we will not effectuate our initial business combination with another blank check company or a similar company with nominal operations.

In addition, the Memorandum and Articles of Association provide that under no circumstances will we redeem our Public Shares in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 upon the consummation of our initial business combination.

Changes in Authorized Shares

We are authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares, which will have rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions attaching to them as the shares in issue. We may by resolution of directors or shareholders:

•        consolidate and divide all or any of our unissued authorized shares into shares of larger or smaller amount than our existing shares;

•        cancel any Greenland Shares which, at the date of the passing of the resolution, have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person; or

•        create new classes of shares with preferences to be determined by resolution of the Greenland Board to amend the Memorandum and Articles of Association to create new classes of shares with such preferences at the time of authorization, although any such new classes of shares, with the exception of the preferred shares, may only be created with prior shareholder approval.

Pre-emption Rights

There are no pre-emption rights applicable to the issuance of new shares under the Memorandum and Articles of Association.

128

Variation of Rights of Shares

As permitted by the Companies Act and the Memorandum and Articles of Association, we may vary the rights attached to any class of shares only with: (i) in the case of the Greenland Shares prior to our initial business combination, the consent of not less than 65% (or 50% if for the purposes of approving, or in connection with, the consummation of our initial business combination) of the votes who are in attendance and vote at a meeting, or (ii) in the case of the preferred shares, 50% of the votes of shareholders who being so entitled attend and vote at a meeting of such shares, except, in each case where a greater majority is required under the Memorandum and Articles of Association or the Companies Act, provided that that for these purposes the creation, designation or issue of preferred shares with rights and privileges ranking in priority to an existing class of shares is deemed not to be a variation of the rights of such existing class and may in accordance with the Memorandum and Articles of Association be effected by resolution of directors without shareholder approval.

Registration Rights

Greenland has entered into a registration rights agreement with respect to the Founder Shares, Private Placement Units and units issued upon conversion of working capital loans (if any). Upon the completion of the Business Combination, the Company will enter into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Zhongchai Equity Holder pursuant to which Zhongchai Equity Holder will have specified rights to require the Company to register all or a portion of its Greenland Shares under the Securities Act. See the section entitled “Proposal 1: The Business Combination Proposal — Related Agreements — Registration Rights Agreement.” In addition, in connection with the PIPE Financing, Greenland has agreed to file a registration statement covering the shares purchased by the PIPE Investors. See the section entitled “Proposal 1: The Business Combination Proposal — Related Agreements — Subscription Agreements.”

BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF SECURITIES

The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of Greenland as of the date of this proxy statement (pre-Business Combination) and, immediately following consummation of the Business Combination, ownership of the Greenland Shares, by:

•        each person known by Greenland to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the Greenland Shares on the date of this proxy statement (pre-Business Combination) or of the Greenland Shares after the Closing;

•        each of Greenland’s officers and directors;

•        all of Greenland’s executive officers and directors as a group;

•        each person who will become an executive officer or director of the Company upon consummation of the Business Combination; and

•        all executive officers and directors of the Company as a group after consummation of the Business Combination.

Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if he, she or it possesses sole or shared voting or investment power over that security, including options and warrants that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days.

The beneficial ownership of the Greenland Shares immediately following consummation of the Business Combination is based on 14,385,566 shares (assuming no Greenland Shares are redeemed), or, in the alternative, 10,563,944 shares (assuming maximum Redemption), to be issued and outstanding and has been determined on the assumption that (i) no Greenland shareholder has exercised its Redemption Rights to receive cash from the Trust Account in exchange for their Public Shares subsequent to the date hereof or, in the alternative, that the maximum number of Greenland shareholders have exercised such Redemption Rights, (ii) 7,500,000 shares are issued to the Zhongchai Equity Holder as part of their Business Combination consideration, (iii) an aggregate of 468,200 shares are issued upon conversion of the Rights and the Private Placement Rights, (iv) an aggregate of 585,366 shares are issued to the PIPE Investors in the PIPE Financing and (v) 50,000 shares are issued to Hanyi Zhou, a financial advisor based in the PRC.

Unless otherwise indicated, Greenland believes that all persons named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all Greenland Shares beneficially owned by them.

Also represents, on a post-Business Combination basis, 26,000 Greenland Shares issuable upon conversion of the Private Placement Rights and 130,000 Greenland Shares underlying Private Placement Warrants. The securities held by the Sponsor are beneficially owned by Yanming Liu, Greenland’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, who, as managing member of the Sponsor, has sole voting and dispositive power over the securities held by the Sponsor.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

Greenland Related Person Transactions

On March 28, 2018, we issued an aggregate of 1,150,000 Founder Shares to the Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 in cash, or approximately $0.022 per share. 50,000 Founder Shares were forfeited by the Sponsor on July 27, 2018 because the underwriters’ over-allotment option was not exercised in full.

The Sponsor has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares (except to certain permitted transferees as described below) until, with respect to 50% of the Founder Shares, the earlier of (i) six months after the date of the consummation of our initial business combination or (ii) the date on which the closing price of the Greenland Shares equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after our initial business combination, with respect to the remaining 50% of the Founder Shares, upon six months after the date of the consummation of our initial business combination, or earlier, in either case, if, subsequent to our initial business combination, we consummate a subsequent liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of our shareholders having the right to exchange their Greenland Shares for cash, securities or other property.

The Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 260,000 Private Placement Units in a private placement that occurred simultaneously with the closing of the IPO. The Sponsor has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Greenland Shares included in the Private Placement Units and the respective Greenland Shares underlying the Private Placement Rights and Private Placement Warrants included in the Private Placement Units until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination.

An affiliate of the Sponsor agreed, from the date that our securities were first listed on Nasdaq through the earlier of our consummation of our initial business combination and our liquidation, to make available to us office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative services, as we may require from time to time. We pay such affiliate $10,000 per month, which funds are used to pay for the aforementioned services. We believe, based on rents and fees for similar services in Beijing, China, that the fee charged by such affiliate is at least as favorable as we could have obtained from an unaffiliated person. One of such affiliate’s executive officers is a member of the Sponsor.

Other than reimbursement of any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations, no compensation or fees of any kind, including finder’s fees, consulting fees, non-cash payments or other similar compensation, will be paid to our officers or directors, or to any of their respective affiliates, prior to or with respect to our initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is). Our independent directors are responsible for reviewing and approving all related party transactions as defined under Item 404 of Regulation S-K, after reviewing each such transaction for potential conflicts of interests and other improprieties.

Prior to the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor had also loaned to us an aggregate of $75,588 to cover expenses related to the IPO. These loans were non-interest bearing and will be payable without interest on demand. We repaid these loans from the proceeds of the IPO not placed in the Trust Account.

In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we consummate our initial business combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that the initial business combination does not close, we may use a portion of the offering proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Such loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The notes would either be paid upon consummation of our initial business combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of the notes may be converted upon consummation of our business combination into additional private units at a price of $10.00 per unit (which, for example, would result in the holders being issued 165,000 Greenland Shares if $1,500,000 of notes were so converted (including 15,000 shares upon the closing of our initial business combination in respect of 150,000 rights included in such units), as well as 150,000 warrants to purchase 75,000 shares).

After our initial business combination, members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting, management or other fees from the Company with any and all amounts being fully disclosed to our

133

shareholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer or proxy solicitation materials, as applicable, furnished to our shareholders. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time of distribution of such tender offer materials or at the time of a shareholder meeting held to consider our initial business combination, as applicable, as it will be up to the directors of the post-combination business to determine executive and director compensation.

All ongoing and future transactions between us and any member of our management team or his or her respective affiliates will be on terms believed by us at that time, based upon other similar arrangements known to us, to be no less favorable to us than are available from unaffiliated third parties.

INFORMATION ABOUT ZHONGCHAI HOLDING

Overview

Zhongchai Holding, through its subsidiaries, is:

•        a leading developer and manufacturer of traditional transmission products for material handling machineries in China; and

•        a developer of a robotic cargo carrier prototype expected to be available for commercial use in the near future in China.

Zhongchai Holding’s transmission products are key components for forklift trucks used in manufacturing and logistic applications, such as factories, workshops, warehouses, fulfillment centers, shipyards and sea ports. Forklifts play an important role in logistics systems of many enterprises across different industries in China and globally. Generally, the industries with the largest demand for forklifts include the transportation, warehousing logistics, electrical machinery and automobile industries.

Zhongchai Holding has experienced increased demand for forklifts in the manufacturing and logistics industries in the PRC, as revenues increased from approximately $49.1 million in 2017 to approximately $60.2 million in 2018. Based on 2018 revenue, Zhongchai Holding believes that it is one of the major developers and manufacturers of transmission products for small and medium-sized forklift trucks in China.

Zhongchai Holding’s transmission products are used in 1-ton to 15-ton forklift trucks, some with mechanical shift and some with automatic shift. Zhongchai Holding sells these transmission products directly to forklift truck manufacturers. In 2018, Zhongchai Holding sold, in the aggregate, more than 91,000 sets of transmission products to over 100 forklift manufacturers in China.

Strategic Growth Opportunity in the Robotic Carrier Market

Zhongchai Holding has leveraged its industry and market experience to develop robotic cargo carriers. Zhongchai Holding plans to sell such carriers in the near future. Zhongchai Holding’s management plans to complete a production-ready sample in the near future. Zhongchai Holding completed a conceptual prototype of a robotic cargo carrier in August 2018. The first product is expected to be a robotic cargo carrier with payload capacity of 500 kilograms, which Zhongchai Holding expects to be more cost effective than existing automatic guided vehicles (“AGVs”) in the market. In the future, management expects to offer a robotic cargo carrier with payload capacity ranging from 100 kilograms to 50 metric tons. Zhongchai Holding believes that its robotic carrier will have a heavier payload capacity than other AGV products currently in the market.

According to research findings of China AGV Industry Alliance and Research Institute of New Strategic AGV Industry, compared with data in 2017, the new increment of market of AGV related products in China in 2018 increased by 35.22%. In 2018, the number of newly added AGVs was 29,600 with the market size reaching to RMB 4.25 billion.

136

We believe that AGV products have the following operational advantages to traditional transmission products:

•        High degree of automation.    Compared to manual forklifts for delivering materials, AGVs are automated. An AGV operator inputs relevant information to the computer terminal and the terminal sends information to AGV’s central control system. The system then sends control commands to the AGV and the AGV executes the commands by delivering the relevant materials to the appropriate location.

•        High flexibility.    AGVs can be used in production lines, assembly lines, conveyor lines, platforms, shelves, operating points and other areas as needed. As a result of this flexibility, AGVs can minimize the logistics turnover cycle, reduce the material consumption in turnover, connect incoming materials and processing and maximize the efficiency of production systems.

•        High safety.    AGVs have security protection through various intelligent traffic management, safety and collision avoidance, multi-level warning, emergency braking and fault alarm systems. As a result, AGVs can play a unique role in situations that are not as suitable for human to work.

We believe that the robotic carrier market presents a substantial opportunity for Zhongchai Holding’s future business, for the following reasons:

Fast Growing Market.    The Chinese intelligent warehousing market continues to grow. According to the Gao Gong Industry Institute, in 2017, such market reached RMB 59.47 billion, a year-on-year increase of 15.7%. It is estimated that by 2020, this market is expected to reach RMB 95.47 billion. In 2018, the number of newly added AGVs was 29,600, with a compound growth rate of 70.08% since 2014. In addition, the PRC national government has issued policies under the 13th Five-Year Plan, including the Made in China 2025 plan, whose core is to improve production efficiency and reduce labor dependence by replacing manual labor with machines. Unmanned forklifts, as an extremely important part of intelligent manufacturing, are aligned with these national goals. Consequently, we believe that there is substantial potential and market scale for further AGV development. According to data from the National Bureau of Statistics, in 2017, as for China’s industrial value added per US$100 million, the corresponding number of forklifts in use was 51, which was close to the level of Japan and the United States but far below Europe, reflecting the fact that material handling efficiency needs to be improved. Although the density of forklifts in China is growing rapidly, there is still a sizable gap when compared to other developed countries, and this market is expected to continue to grow in China.

Impact of the Growing E-Commerce Industry.    The large number of online orders in the current market requires faster and more accurate logistics. Automated equipment, such as AGVs, improves speed and accuracy. Demand for more efficient logistics is expected to increase as e-commerce continues to grow. As such, we is expect that the demand for AGVs in the next few years will continue to increase rapidly.

Highly Fragmented Market.    The AGV market is highly fragmented. In particular, there are few, if any, dominant local market participants. As such, we believe that Zhongchai holding has an opportunity to develop a meaningful role in the AGV market. Many of the core components of current AGVs in the domestic PRC market are made by foreign manufacturers of robot components. Very fewer of them are made in China. Although foreign enterprises can use their advantages of key technologies and core components to constrain Chinese enterprises, we believe that Zhongchai Holding can successfully enter the AGV market due to its advantages of being an experienced, local competitor in the logistics industry as well as its strong research and development (“R&D”) capabilities.

High Technology Barriers for New Entrants.    To compete in the AGV market, enterprises need a high-level of core technologies and capabilities in order to successfully develop products containing the necessary sensors and devices that measure accuracy, temperature, response time, stability, reliability and other relevant metrics. We believe that this creates a high barrier for new market entrants. Given Zhongchai Holding’s existing role in the logistics industry and the research and development milestones achieved to date provide Zhongchai Holding with the opportunity to successfully compete in the AGV market.

Demand for Efficient Services.    Traditional forklifts are mainly internal combustion forklifts with disadvantages of high emissions and energy consumption, human health risks, low utilization of labor and transport capacity. Furthermore, currently, the primary users of forklifts include manufacturing and logistics companies that are price sensitive. Consequently, we believe that demand for AGV products, which typically improve efficiency and cost-effectives as compared to traditional forklifts, will continue to increase over time. In addition, according to data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, China’s birth rate has recently been at a historically low level, with a downward trend. As an important alternative to human resources, the demand for AGVs is expected to continue to increase in the PRC.

Competitive Strengths

Zhongchai Holding believes that the following strengths enable the company to compete effectively:

Favorable Market Trends

Zhongchai Holding believes that a number of key industry trends in China will continue to benefit Zhongchai Holding and continue to drive its growth, including:

•        increasing labor cost, which accelerates labor substitution with machinery in material handling and logistic activities;

139

•        increasing migration of logistic labor to urban areas, which increases demand for logistic machinery;

•        increasing government support for logistic mechanization, including in the form of subsidies;

•        increasing government support for improving efficiency in China’s logistics industry, which is a key end market for material handling machinery such as forklifts and loaders;

•        higher rate of growth in investments in smaller projects (such as subways and urban maintenance projects) compared to those in mega projects (such as highways and bridges), which fosters demand for smaller excavators and other construction machinery for smaller projects; and

•        increasing competitiveness of PRC branded products in China and certain international markets.

As a result of these favorable industry trends, Zhongchai Holding believes that it is well-positioned to capitalize on the increasing market demand for transmission products for small- and medium-sized material handling and logistic machinery in China.

Well-Developed Manufacturing Capabilities Leading to High Efficiency

Zhongchai Holding believes that its manufacturing process is one of the most well-developed and efficient in its industry in China, resulting in high labor productivity. The revenue per employee of Zhongchai Holding amounted to $204,806 in 2018, as compared to an average of $187,522 for other companies, according to the Statistics Department in the PRC. In addition, Zhongchai Holding believes that a combination of modern operational and management systems and its advanced manufacturing equipment, together with its manufacturing know-how and the skills of its workforce, contribute to a flexible manufacturing system, which allows Zhongchai Holding to shorten the “time to market” for its new products and timely adjust its product mix to respond to changes in market demand.

Robust Research and Product Development Capabilities

Research and product development capabilities have been critical to Zhongchai Holding’s historical growth and current market position. Such capabilities include the following:

•        Strong R&D team.    Zhongchai Holding’s research and development team, comprising more than 40 professionals, or over 10% of Zhongchai Holding’s employees, is led by Dr. Lei Chen, who is a former professor at The University of Texas at Austin and has many years of research and development experience in introducing and adopting new technologies.

•        Facilities.    Zhongchai Holding’s research and development facilities consist of a transmission technology center and a robotic technology center.

The technology center consists of a product development and design department, a research center, three research departments focused on the design, application and manufacturing of internal combustion engines, and a post-doctoral workstation certified by the PRC Ministry of Human Resource and Social Security.

Strategic Service Network

The ability to provide timely after-sales services is critical to building and maintaining Zhongchai Holding’s customer base. Zhongchai Holding has established an after-sales service network at strategic locations, with a focus on areas that have more developed economies. For example, the eastern provinces of China generally have significant demand for logistics services. Accordingly, Zhongchai Holding has opened service centers and retained service providers predominantly in these regions. Users of Zhongchai Holding’s products are able to reach the company through a 24-hour hotline, through which Zhongchai Holding is able to provide prompt on-site technical services at various locations in China.

140

Management Team With Local and International Experience Combined with a Successful Track Record

Zhongchai Holding’s senior management team combine local operational experience and market knowledge with international management and technical experience. In addition, each member of senior management has a track record of helping build companies into successful enterprises.

•        Peter Zuguang Wang has served as the sole director of Zhongchai Holding since April 2009 and the chairman of Zhejiang Zhongchai since September 2017. He has more than 20 years of experience in technology and management, combining a unique background in each of research and development, operations, finance and management. Mr. Wang was a co-founder of Unitech Telecom (now a part of UTStarcom, Nasdaq: UTSI).

•        Jing Jin, Chief Financial Officer, a Certified Public Account, has over 10 years of experience in accounting, budgeting and financial planning across operations in China and overseas, including as an executive of public companies.

Business Strategies

We intend to implement a business strategy with the following components:

Increase Manufacturing Capacity

Zhongchai Holding plans to continue improving and expanding its existing manufacturing capacities to meet growing customer demand for its products.

Expand Breadth and Depth of Product Offering

Zhongchai Holding plans to expand the breadth and depth of its products to meet customers’ requirements, as follows:

•        Expand product range.    Although Zhongchai Holding expects that gearboxes and transmission systems with power output will remain its principal products in terms of revenue contribution in the foreseeable future, it believes that expanding the product range of AGV and high-tech transmission systems will enhance Zhongchai Holding’s ability to maintain and expand its customer base and strengthen its competitive position in the industry. For example, many of Zhongchai Holding’s existing and potential customers manufacture off-road machinery that requires gearboxes and transmission systems with a broader range of power output than Zhongchai Holding currently offers. Accordingly, within the next three years, Zhongchai Holding’s transmission products are expected to expand to capacity levels of 1 ton to 12 tons. In addition, Zhongchai Holding plans to initiate production of new AGV products and then to expand its AGVs to 50 to 100 metric tons in next three years. However, there is no guarantee that Zhongchai Holding’s growth plans will be successful.

•        Develop and launch new products.    Zhongchai Holding continues its product development activities such as hybrid power engines and natural gas engines. Currently, the market for hybrid power and natural gas engines in China is not fully developed. However, Zhongchai Holding expects that hybrid power and natural gas engines will be increasingly accepted and used in the PRC off-road machinery industry as:

•        they are generally believed to be more environmentally friendly than diesel engines;

141

•        they will become more reliable and efficient as the relevant technology advances; and

•        natural gas becomes more economically attractive as an alternative to diesel fuel.

Zhongchai Holding believes product innovation is key to market leadership. Consequently, Zhongchai Holding intends to focus on transaxles and gearboxes for electric forklifts as well as advanced transaxles with wet brakes. In addition, Zhongchai Holding intends to adopt clean fuel technologies such as natural gas while its robotic pallet carrier will use hybrid power and electric components.

•        Upgrade current products.    In order to be more energy-efficient, which is the current trend in the transmission industry, Zhongchai Holding plans to upgrade its products for diesel engine technologies to meet Europe Stage VI and commence commercialization in the near future.

Explore Overseas Opportunities

While Zhongchai Holding expects that the PRC market will remain its primary market for the foreseeable future, Zhongchai Holding is also exploring opportunities to expand overseas. Zhongchai Holding is currently conducting market analyses for certain Asian markets, focusing on issues such as product selection and whether sales will be conducted directly or through distributors. As of the date of this proxy statement, Zhongchai Holding has not formed any definitive plans on its potential entry into any of these markets. In addition, Zhongchai Holding may actively explore joint research and development opportunities with overseas institutions and/or manufacturers to develop products that meet local environmental standards. However, there is no guarantee that Zhongchai Holding’s growth plans will be successful.

Pursue Strategic Investments and Acquisitions That Complement Zhongchai Holding’s Growth Strategy

Zhongchai Holding intends to seek potential opportunities for strategic investment in, and acquisition of, technology, particularly from industry participants overseas, to complement its existing technology. In addition, Zhongchai Holding believes that China’s AGV and transmission industries present significant opportunities for consolidation. Accordingly, Zhongchai Holding intends to seek opportunities to acquire other manufacturers, particularly those with product offerings that complement Zhongchai Holding’s business. Zhongchai Holding also intends to selectively evaluate strategic investment opportunities in upstream suppliers of key parts and components and downstream customers in China to secure these relationships and become more vertically integrated. However, there is no guarantee that Zhongchai Holding’s growth plans will be successful.

Customers

Zhongchai Holding sells almost all of its products domestically in China. Its customers primarily consist of manufacturers of material handling equipment, primarily forklift trucks. Zhongchai Holding believes that its customers include some of the leading manufacturers in their respective market segments. Zhongchai Holding also supplies to the PRC subsidiaries of a number of blue-chip international brands based in Europe and Asia.

Zhongchai Holding’s five largest customers accounted for an aggregate of approximately 38.7% and 40.2% of its total revenue for six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, Zhongchai Holding’s five largest customers contributed 39.9% and 37.9%, respectively, of its total revenues. In the same periods, Zhongchai Holding’s single largest customer, Hangcha Group Co., Ltd., accounted for 14.1%, 15.2%, 14.7% and 13.6%, respectively, of Zhongchai Holding’s total revenue. Zhongchai Holding sells products to Hangcha Group Co., Ltd. based on purchase orders submitted to Zhongchai Holding.

Suppliers

Zhongchai Holding purchases its raw materials from various suppliers for use in the manufacture of its products. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, and the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, none of Zhongchai Holding’s suppliers accounted for more than 10% of Zhongchai Holding’s total procurement costs.

The key raw materials used in the manufacture of its products include processed metal-based parts and components, including but not limited to iron castings and gears. Most of such parts and components are purchased from PRC domestic suppliers. Almost all of Zhongchai Holding’s suppliers are located in close proximity to its facilities, allowing the company to reduce transportation and inventory costs.

142

The prices of iron and steel and other raw materials have historically fluctuated significantly in China, which in turn has affected the company’s business and results of operations. Zhongchai Holding closely monitors changes in raw material prices and seeks to adjust its inventory of raw materials when the prices of such raw materials are expected to rise for a sustained period. In addition, Zhongchai Holding seeks to minimize the impact of fluctuations in raw material prices by adopting bidding processes in its raw material procurement process and selecting suppliers with the most favorable bids. Zhongchai Holding also seeks to price its products to reflect the expected fluctuations in raw material prices to the extent possible. However, there can be no assurance that Zhongchai Holding could precisely estimate increases in raw material prices or effectively pass on such increases to its customers.

Production

Zhongchai Holding’s products are comprised of a number of major parts and components, including gearbox housing, gears, bearings, oil pumps, gear shafts, hydraulics and electrical components. The gearbox housing and gears parts are processed in-house at its manufacturing facility in Xinchang. Components of such products are generally sourced from third parties and are assembled and integrated to form finished products. The finished products undergo further adjustments, fine tuning, testing and quality inspection. After inspection, the finished products are coated and painted before being sent to Zhongchai Holding’s warehouses for storage and distribution to its customers.

Inventory and Warehousing

Zhongchai Holding undertakes inventory control in order to reduce the risks of under and over-stocking. On average, Zhongchai Holding typically maintains a stock for its production needs of 30 days. It generally increases its inventories toward the end of a year to meet the production needs in anticipation for increased demand for its products in the second quarter of the following year. Zhongchai Holding maintains higher inventories at year-end because the Chinese New Year typically falls in January or February which affects the production and transportation of raw materials. Zhongchai Holding has installed an enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system which provides it with real-time information about purchases, production schedules and supplies of the raw materials. The ERP system has substantially improved Zhongchai Holding’s inventory controls, providing the company with quick access to various data and easy formulation of operating models, and allowing the company to keep its inventory at an appropriate level to facilitate the manufacturing process.

Research and Development

Zhongchai Holding’s research and development team selects research and development projects and draws up preliminary project proposals based on various factors, such as industry and market trends, customer feedback and input from other departments, such as the finance and manufacturing departments.

Zhongchai Holding’s management, including the heads and lead managers of its various internal departments, such as sales and marketing and finance departments, as well as the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Technology Officer of Zhongchai Holding, reviews the preliminary project proposals and its research and development team formulates a final plan for each approved project after taking into account suggestions and comments by its management. The final plans include detailed schedules and budgets for the projects. Zhongchai Holding’s finance department monitors budget overruns. Any increase in the original budget must be reviewed and approved by management before the relevant project can continue.

Zhongchai Holding has also focused on research and development with respect to a new robotic vehicle. Zhongchai Holding plans to sell such carriers in the near future. Zhongchai Holding’s management plans to complete a production-ready sample by the end of 2019. Zhongchai Holding completed a conceptual prototype of a robotic cargo carrier in August 2018. The first product is expected to be a robotic cargo carrier with payload capacity of 500 kilograms. In the future, management expects to offer a robotic cargo carrier with payload capacity ranging from 100 kilograms to 50 metric tons.

Zhongchai Holding relies on a combination of trademark, copyright, patent, software registration and trade secret laws to protect its intellectual property rights. Despite these precautions, it may be possible for third parties to obtain and use the company’s intellectual property without its authorization.

Patents

As of June 18, 2019, Zhongchai Holding held 85 registered patents, with the China National Intellectual Property Administration (“CNIPA”), 75 of which are utility patents and 10 of which are invention patents. These patents relate to the manufacturing of products.

As of December 31, 2018, Zhongchai Holding has been granted 2 trademarks registered with the CNIPA.

Zhongchai Holding’s intellectual property also includes technical data such as test results and operating data from projects, drawings, designs, and machinery and manufacturing techniques it developed in-house.

Sales and Marketing

Zhongchai Holding sells its products in China through its sales and marketing team. To promote Zhongchai Holding’s brand, sales employees also attend trade shows and exhibitions to showcase the company’s products.

As of December 31, 2018, Zhongchai Holding’s sales and marketing team consisted of 12 employees. Members of its sales and marketing team have extensive experience and knowledge in the material handling equipment manufacturing industry. They are primarily responsible for identifying business opportunities, promoting products, collecting customer feedback and market information, bidding for or negotiating orders, and collecting payment.

Competition

The transmission industry is fragmented and highly competitive in China. At present, domestically produced transmissions account for the largest share of the PRC market. International brand manufacturers equipped with better technology and capital resources are also aiming to expand further into China. As a result, it is expected that the China transmission market will be increasingly competitive.

The typical competitive criteria are quality, price, technology, after-sales service, product offerings and proven record of performance. The transmissions market is highly capital intensive on both a capital and on operating cost basis. In addition, the manufacturing process requires technical expertise and significant research and development budgets. As a result, companies entering the market must have significant financial and technical resources. Moreover, the time and cost required to establish a proven track record necessary for general market acceptance are substantial. An extensive after-sales service network is also essential for a company to gain general market acceptance.

Zhongchai Holding believes that it is able to compete on the basis of its market position, strong research and development capabilities, high quality products, integrated service system and strong relationships with its customers.

Zhongchai Holding’s key competitors are Shaoxing Advance Gearbox Co., Ltd., Changsha Zhongchuan Transmission Machinery Co. Ltd. and Ganzhou Wuhuan Machine Co., Ltd.

The market for AGVs in China is dominated by a small number of companies as a result of significant consolidation that occurred in the past few years. We expect the AGV market in China to continue this trend of consolidation in the near future. Given our relationships in the transmission market and our strong technology team, we expect that Zhongchai Holding can compete in this market environment. However, there is no guarantee of any success, as many of Zhongchai Holding’s competitors are more established in the AGV market and are better capitalized than Zhongchai Holding.

The existing market players for AGVs in China are Shenyang Siasun Robot & Automation Cp., Ltd., Machinery Technology Development Co., Ltd. and Kuming KSEC Logistics Information Industry Co., Ltd.

Employees

As of December 31, 2018, the total number of full-time employees employed by Zhongchai Holding and its subsidiaries was 294. The following table sets forth the number of its full-time employees by the function as of December 31, 2018:

Law and Regulation Relating to Tax

•        Enterprise Income Tax

On March 16, 2007 and December 6, 2007 respectively, the National People’s Congress of China and the State Council of the PRC enacted the Enterprise Income Tax Law of the PRC and the Implementation Regulations of Enterprise Income Tax Law of the PRC (collectively the “PRC EIT Law”), both of which became effective on

146

January 1, 2008. The PRC EIT Law imposes a uniform enterprise income tax rate of 25% on all residence enterprises, including foreign-invested enterprises, and terminates most of the tax exemptions, reductions and preferential treatments available under previous tax laws and regulations.

However, the PRC EIT Law and its implementation rules permit certain “high-technology enterprises strongly supported by the state” which hold independent ownership of core intellectual property and simultaneously meet a list of other criteria, financial or non-financial, as stipulated in the Implementation Rules, to enjoy a 15% enterprise income tax rate subject to certain new qualification criteria. The SAT, the PRC Ministry of Science and Technology and the MOF jointly issued the Administrative Rules for the Certification of High and New Technology Enterprise delineating the specific criteria and procedures for “high and new technology enterprises” certification.

Under the PRC EIT Law, enterprises are classified as either “resident enterprises” or “non-resident enterprises.” Pursuant to PRC EIT Law and its implementation rules, besides enterprises established within the PRC, enterprises established outside China whose “de facto management bodies” are located in China are considered “resident enterprises” for PRC enterprise income tax purposes and subject to the uniform 25% enterprise income tax rate for their global income. According to the implementation rules of the PRC EIT Law, “de facto management body” refers to a managing body that exercises, in substance, overall management and control over the manufacture and business, personnel, accounting and assets of an enterprise.

•        Withholding Tax

The PRC EIT Law removes the prior tax exemption and imposes a 10% withholding tax on dividends paid by foreign-invested enterprises to foreign investors. However, for foreign investors whose home countries or regions have signed bilateral tax agreements with China, the withholding tax rate may be reduced to as low as 5% depending on the terms of the applicable tax treaty. In accordance with the Arrangement between Mainland China and Hong Kong for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and Prevention of Fiscal Evasion with respect to Taxes on Income signed on August 21, 2006, the 5% withholding tax rate applies to dividends paid by a PRC company to a Hong Kong tax resident, provided that the recipient is a company that holds directly at least 25% of the interest of the PRC company, otherwise, the applicable withholding tax rate should be 10%. Further, pursuant to the Notice on the Issues concerning the Application of the Dividend Clauses of Tax Agreements issued by the SAT on February 20, 2009, the preferential tax rate under the relevant tax treaties shall only apply to a tax resident from the other side that directly holds at least 25% of the interest of a PRC company for a period of consecutive 12 months prior to receiving the dividends.

•        Value Added Tax

The Provisional Regulations of the PRC Concerning Value Added Tax (the “VAT Regulations”), was promulgated on December 13, 1993 and amended by the State Council and became effect on November 19, 2017. Under the VAT Regulations and its implementation regulations, value added tax, or the VAT, is imposed on the sales of goods and provision of processing, repair and replacement services within the PRC and the importation of goods into China. The VAT standard rate had been 17% of the gross sale price until April 30, 2018, after which date the rate was reduced to 16%. VAT rate was further reduced to 13% starting from April 1, 2019.

On April 4, 2018, the Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Taxation issued the Circular on Adjustment of VAT Rates, which became effective as of May 1, 2018. According to the Circular on the Adjustment of VAT Rates, relevant VAT rates have been reduced from May 1, 2018, such that VAT rates of 17% and 11% applicable to the taxpayers who have VAT taxable sales activities or imported goods are adjusted to 13% and 9%, respectively.

Law and Regulation Relating to Intellectual Property Rights

•        Copyright Law

According to the Copyright Law of the PRC, which was amended on February 26, 2010 and became effective on April 1, 2010, Chinese citizens, legal entities or other organizations shall enjoy the copyright in their works, whether published or not, which include works of literature, art, natural sciences, social sciences, engineering and technology, etc. Copyright owners shall enjoy various kinds of rights, including the right of publication, right of authorship and right of reproduction.

147

•        Patent Law

Pursuant to the Patent Law of the PRC which was amended on December 27, 2008 and became effective on October 1, 2009, the patent administration departments of the State Council are responsible for the administration of patents across the nation. The patent administration departments of provincial, autonomous region or municipal governments are responsible for administering patents within their respective jurisdictions. The PRC patent system adopts a “first come, first file” principle, which means where more than one person files a patent application for the same invention, a patent will be granted to the person who files the application first. To be patentable, invention or utility models must meet three criteria: novelty, inventiveness and practicability. Invention patents are valid for twenty years, while utility model patents and design patents are valid for ten years, commencing from the date of application. The patentee shall pay annual fees commencing from the year when the parent right is granted. If the patentee doesn’t pay annual fees according to the requirements, the patent will be terminated prior to its expiry. Other person must obtain consent or a proper license from the patent owner to use the patent. Otherwise, the use constitutes an infringement of the patent rights. The infringer must, in accordance with the applicable regulations, undertake to cease the infringement, take remedial action and/or pay damages.

•        Trademark Law

Pursuant to the Trademark Law of the PRC which was amended on August 30, 2013 and became effective on May 1, 2014, the right to exclusive use of a registered trademark shall be limited to trademarks which have been approved for registration and to commodities for which the use of trademark has been approved. The period of validity of a registered trademark shall be ten years, counted from the day the registration is approved. If a trademark registrant wishes to use a trademark after the expiration of the duration of the trademark registration, according to the requirements, a registration renewal application should be filed within twelve months prior to the expiration. Each registration renewal is valid for ten years. Using a trademark that is identical with a registered trademark on the same commodities without the licensing of the registrant of the registered trademark; or using a trademark that is similar to a registered trademark on the same commodities, or using a trademark that is identical with or similar to the registered trademark on similar commodities without the licensing of the registrant of the registered trademark, which is likely to cause confusion; selling commodities that infringe upon the exclusive right to use a registered trademark; forging, manufacturing a registered trademark which was registered by others without authorization, or selling a registered trademark forged or manufactured without authorization; changing a registered trademark and putting the commodities with the changed trademark into the market without the consent of the registrant of the registered trademark; providing, intentionally, convenience for activities infringing upon others’ exclusive right to use a registered trademark, and facilitating others to commit infringement on the exclusive right to use a registered trademark, constitutes an infringement of the exclusive right to use a registered trademark. The infringer must undertake to cease the infringement, take remedial action and pay damages. The infringer also may be subject to fines or even criminal punishment.

•        Domain Names

The domain names are protected under the Administrative Measures for Internet Domain Names promulgated by Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, or the MIIT, on August 24, 2017, the effective date of which was November 1, 2017. MIIT is the major regulatory body responsible for the administration of the PRC Internet domain names, under supervision of which China Internet Network Information Center, or CNNIC, is responsible for the daily administration of CN domain names and Chinese domain names. On September 25, 2002, CNNIC promulgated the Implementation Rules of Registration of Domain Name, or the CNNIC Rules, which was renewed on June 5, 2009 and May 29, 2012, respectively. Pursuant to the Administrative Measures on the Internet Domain Names and the CNNIC Rules, the registration of domain names adopts the “first to file” principle and the registrant shall complete the registration via the domain name registration service institutions. In the event of a domain name dispute, the disputed parties may lodge a complaint to the designated domain name dispute resolution institution to trigger the domain name dispute resolution procedure in accordance with the CNNIC Measures on Resolution of the Top Level Domains Disputes, file a suit to the People’s Court or initiate an arbitration procedure.

Law and Regulation Relating to Foreign Currency Exchange

The principal regulations governing foreign currency exchange in the PRC are the Foreign Exchange Administrative Regulations (the “SAFE Regulations”) which was promulgated by the State Council and last amended on August 5, 2008. Under the SAFE Regulations, the RMB is generally freely convertible for current account items,

148

including the distribution of dividends, trade and service related foreign exchange transactions, but not for capital account items, such as direct investment, loan, repatriation of investment and investment in securities outside the PRC, unless the prior approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange is obtained.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF ZHONGCHAI HOLDING

You should read the following discussion of Zhongchai Holding’s financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with its consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this proxy statement. The discussion in this proxy statement contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements of Zhongchai Holding’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. The cautionary statements made in this proxy statement should be read as applying to all related forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this proxy statement. Zhongchai Holding’s actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this proxy statement, particularly in the section entitled “Risk Factors.”

Overview

Zhongchai Holding, through its subsidiaries, is:

•        a leading developer and manufacturer of traditional transmission products for material handling machineries in China; and

•        a developer of a robotic cargo carrier prototype expected to be available for commercial use in the near future in China.

Zhongchai Holding’s transmission products are key components for forklift trucks used in manufacturing and logistic applications, such as factories, workshops, warehouses, fulfillment centers, shipyards and sea ports. Forklifts play an important role in logistics systems of many enterprises across different industries in China and globally. Generally, the industries with the largest demand for forklifts include the transportation, warehousing logistics, electrical machinery and automobile industries.

Zhongchai Holding has experienced increased demand for forklifts in the manufacturing and logistics industries in the PRC, as revenues increased from approximately $49.1 million in 2017 to approximately $60.2 million in 2018, albeit with somewhat declined revenue of approximately $28.6 million in first half of 2019 compared with approximately $36 million in first 2018, primarily due to Zhejiang Zhongchai’s moving and settlement to its new factory site as elaborated hereinafter. Based on revenue of 2018 and 2019 first half, Zhongchai Holding believes that it is one of the major developers and manufacturers of transmission products for small and medium-sized forklift trucks in China.

Zhongchai Holding’s transmission products are used in 1-ton to 15-ton forklift trucks, some with mechanical shift and some with automatic shift. Zhongchai Holding sells these transmission products directly to forklift truck manufacturers. In 2018 and in the first half of 2019, Zhongchai Holding sold, in the aggregate, more than 91,000 and 43,000 sets of transmission products, respectively, to over 100 forklift manufacturers in China.

Key Factors that Affect Operating Results

Zhongchai Holding believes that the key factors affecting its financial condition and results of operations include the following:

•        New Products.    Zhongchai Holding has leveraged its industry and market experience to develop robotic cargo carriers. Zhongchai Holding plans to sell such carriers in the near future. Zhongchai Holding’s management plans to complete a production-ready sample by the end of 2019. Zhongchai Holding completed a conceptual prototype of a robotic cargo carrier in August 2018. The first product is expected to be a robotic cargo carrier with payload capacity of 500 kilograms, which Zhongchai Holding expects to be more cost effective than existing AGVs in the market. In the future, management expects to offer a robotic cargo carrier with payload capacity ranging from 100 kilograms to 50 metric tons. Zhongchai Holding believes that its robotic carrier will have a heavier payload capacity than other AGV products currently in the market. However, there is no guarantee that Zhongchai Holding will be successful in bringing these new products to the market or whether such products will lead to substantial profits in the future.

•        China and global economic growth.    Zhongchai Holding’s products are sold almost exclusively in China. Zhongchai Holding expects that it will continue to focus on the domestic PRC market in the near future.

150

Therefore, China’s economic development will significantly influence Zhongchai Holding’s products and business operations. Although China’s economy has grown during the past decade, the pace of growth has recently slowed. According to the National Bureau of Statistics in China, the annual rate of growth declined from 7.7% in 2013 to 6.6% in 2018. A significant disruption to the Chinese economy in general, and the transmission industry in particular, could severely impact Zhongchai Holding’s business.

•        Industry trends and regulatory environment.    Zhongchai Holding believes that a number of key industry trends in the transmission market in China will drive its growth, particularly with respect to its future autonomous products, including continuing urbanization, rising labor cost driving mechanization, and the increasing competitiveness of domestic brand products. Whether these trends will continue and the degree to which they will continue are beyond Zhongchai Holding’s control. According to research findings of China AGV Industry Alliance and Research Institute of New Strategic AGV Industry, compared with data in 2017, the new increment of market of AGV related products in China in 2018 increased by 35.22%. In 2018, the number of newly added AGVs was 29,600 with the market size reaching to RMB 4.25 billion.

•        Raw material costs.    Raw material costs historically have been the principal component of Zhongchai Holding’s cost of sales. Raw materials used by Zhongchai Holding primarily include processed metal-based parts and components such as iron raw castings. Zhongchai Holding purchases all of its metal-based parts and components in China, where the prices of iron and steel have historically fluctuated significantly. Fluctuations in the availability and price of iron, steel and other raw materials could have a significant impact on Zhongchai Holding’s results of operations.

•        Customer Concentration.    Zhongchai Holding has relied on a limited number of customers for a significant portion of its revenues. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, Zhongchai Holding’s five largest customers contributed 39.9% and 37.9% of its total revenues, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, Zhongchai Holding’s five largest customers contributed 38.7% and 40.2%, respectively, of its total revenues. Therefore, any changes in the business of any of Zhongchai Holding’s major customers could significantly impact Zhongchai Holding’s business.

Results of Operations

The following table sets forth a summary of Zhongchai Holding’s consolidated results of operations for the periods indicated. This information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this proxy statement. The operating results in any period are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any future periods.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2018

Revenues

Zhongchai Holding’s revenues decreased by approximately $7.5 million, or approximately 20.7%, to approximately $28.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to approximately $36 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in production capacity due to the moving process into a new factory in Zhejiang, China. The new factory was fully completed by the end of April 2019 and Zhongchai Holding started to settle into the new factory in the second quarter of 2019. Zhongchai Holding plans to get fully settled into the new factory by the end of 2019. In addition, approximately $1.7 million of such decrease was attributable to the stronger U.S. Dollar against RMB, as reflected in the table above under the heading “— Foreign Currency Impact.”

Cost of Goods Sold

Zhongchai Holding’s cost of goods sold consists primarily of material costs, freight charges, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, warehousing costs, internal transfer costs, wages, employee compensation, amortization, depreciation and related costs, which are directly attributable to the production of products.

Total cost of goods sold decreased by approximately $4.8 million, or approximately 18.1%, to approximately $21.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to approximately $26.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Cost of goods sold decreased due to decrease of sale volume.

Gross Profit

For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, Zhongchai Holding’s gross margin was approximately 23.2% and 25.7%, respectively.

The increase was primarily attributable to the growth of the forklift truck market in China, which resulted in additional customers and increased purchases from existing customers. According to the China Construction Machinery Association, sales volume of forklift trucks in the PRC was 597,152 units for the year ended December 31, 2018, an increase of 100,414 units, or approximately 20.2%, from 496,738 units for the year ended December 31, 2017. Exchange rate slightly changed from RMB6.7423 per USD in 2017 to RMB6.6338 per USD in 2018. On a constant currency basis, revenues for the year ended December 31, 2018 increased by approximately 20.7%.

Cost of Goods Sold

Zhongchai Holding’s cost of goods sold consists primarily of material costs, freight charges, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, warehousing costs, internal transfer costs, wages, employee compensation, amortization, depreciation and related costs, which are directly attributable to the production of products. Write-down of inventory to lower of cost or market is also recorded in cost of goods sold.

Zhongchai Holding’s gross profit increased by approximately $2.2 million, or 18.7%, to approximately $14.1million for the year ended December 31, 2018, from approximately $11.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2017. For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, Zhongchai Holding’s gross margin was approximately 23.4% and 24.2%, respectively. The decrease of gross margin was primarily due to the increase in the price of certain raw materials and labor costs.

Operating Expenses

Zhongchai Holding’s operating expenses consist of selling expenses, general and administrative expenses and research and development expenses.

Selling Expenses

Selling expenses mainly include operating expenses such as sales staff payroll, traveling expenses and transportation expenses. Selling expenses decreased by approximately $0.2 million or 14.5%, to approximately $1.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, as compared to approximately $1.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2017. The decrease of selling expenses was primarily due to a decrease in sales staff compensation, market promotion expense and after-market service expense.

154

The decrease of general and administrative was primarily due to a lump-sum bonus payment and the recognition of equity incentive fee incurred during the year ended December 31, 2017. Zhongchai Holding paid RMB31.6 million (approximately $4.7 million) to Mr. Mengxing He, director and general manager of Zhejiang Zhongchai and legal representative, executive director and general manager of Shengte, as a reward for his past performance and incentive for his continuous contribution to Zhejiang Zhongchai. Mr. He then invested these funds in Zhejiang Zhongchai through Jiuxin, an entity that Mr. He controls, in exchange for 10.53% of the outstanding equity interests in Zhejiang Zhongchai. The difference between the fair market value of such equity interests in Zhejiang Zhongchai, or RMB52.7 million (approximately $7.8 million), and the actual consideration paid was charged as an equity incentive fee of approximately RMB21.1 million (approximately $3.1 million).

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses consist of R&D personnel compensation, costs of materials used in R&D projects, and depreciation costs for research-related equipment. R&D expenses increased by approximately $0.7 million, or 36.7%, to approximately $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, as compared to approximately $1.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2017. The increase of R&D expenses was primarily due to the increase of salary of research and development personnel and craft equipment and a model development fee during 2018.

Income (Loss) from Operations

As a result of the foregoing, income from operations for the year ended December 31, 2018 was approximately $8.7 million, an increase of approximately $9.5 million, from a loss from operations of approximately ($0.8 million) for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Interest Income and Interest Expenses

Zhongchai Holding’s interest income was approximately $0.023 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, an increase of approximately $0.006 million, or 40%, as compared to approximately $0.016 million for the year ended December 31, 2017. The increase in interest income was due to increase in balance of bank deposits.

The increase was primarily due to cease of capitalization of interests related to the new factory project as a result of progressive completion of the project.

Other Income

Zhongchai Holding’s other income was approximately $0.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, a decrease of approximately $0.08 million, or 8.4%, as compared to approximately $0.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2017. The decrease was primarily due to increase in foreign exchange loss, partially offset by increase in other income and gains, such as those from disposal of scrap materials and some equipment, miscellaneous income from processing parts for third parties, income from money-market investment products as well as government allowance.

Income Taxes

Zhongchai Holding’s income tax was approximately $1.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to approximately $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 In 2017, Zhongchai Holding paid additional taxes as a result of a distribution and dividend declared and paid by Zhejiang Zhongchai.

However, Zhongchai Holding obtained the “high-tech enterprise” tax status in November 2016, which reduced its statutory income tax rate to 15%.

Zhongchai Holding is registered in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China and is subject to 16.5% income tax for locally earned income, but is exempt from income tax for income or gains earned outside of Hong Kong. Zhongchai Holding had no sales revenue in Hong Kong for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.

155

Net Income (Loss)

As a result of the foregoing, net income increased by approximately $9.9 million, to approximately $6.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, from a loss of approximately ($3.3 million) for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Zhongchai Holding has funded working capital and other capital requirements primarily by equity contributions, cash flow from operations, short-term bank loans and bank acceptance notes, and long-term bank loans. Cash is required primarily to purchase raw materials, repay debts and pay salaries, office expenses, income taxes and other operating expenses.

Zhongchai Holding management believes that Zhongchai Holding has sufficient cash, together with expected profits and anticipated capital from existing funding sources, to operate for the next 12 months. Zhongchai Holding has generated, and is expected to continue to generate, positive cash flow from operations.

Zhongchai Holding may need additional cash resources in the future if it experiences failure in collection of receivables, changed business conditions or other developments, and may also need additional cash resources in the future if it wishes to pursue opportunities for investment, acquisition, strategic cooperation or other similar actions. If it is determined that the cash requirements exceed Zhongchai Holding’s cash and cash equivalents on hand, Zhongchai Holding may seek to issue debt or equity securities.

Zhongchai Holding has expended considerable resources to build a new factory (approximately $0.9 million during the first half of 2019, approximately $6.0 million in 2018 and approximately $8.8 million in 2017, respectively), resulting in lower levels of available cash during such periods. However, Zhongchai Holding management anticipates that cash flow will improve in the second half of 2019, given that the new factory construction has been completed and they expect that no more than $1 million will be owed to complete the factory. Furthermore, in May 2019, Zhongchai Holding pledged the land use rights and property titles to lenders in China in order to obtain additional loans and to refinance expiring loans, in order to fund Zhongchai Holding’s working capital needs.

See “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions — Zhongchai Holding Related Person Transactions” for a description of amounts payable to, and receivable from, related parties. There is no guarantee that the amounts payable by Zhongchai Equity Holder will be repaid in whole or in part in the near future, if at all. Any such failure could have a material negative impact on Zhongchai Holding’s balance sheet.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents refers to all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturity of three months or less. As of June 30, 2019, Zhongchai Holding had approximately $4.7 million of cash and cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2018, Zhongchai Holding had approximately $3.4 million of cash and cash equivalents, an increase of approximately $2.1 million, or 157.5%, as compared to approximately $1.3 million as of December 31, 2017. The increase of cash was mainly due to the increase in revenues and profits, together with positive cash flows from investing activities, as described below under “— Investing Activities,” offset by cash flows used in financing activities mainly due to repayment of loans and interest payments.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash represents amounts held by a bank as security for bank acceptance notes and therefore is not available for use until the bank acceptance notes have been fulfilled or expired, normally within a twelve month period. As of June 30, 2019, Zhongchai Holding had approximately $0.56 million of restricted cash. As of December 31, 2018, Zhongchai Holding had approximately $3.4 million of restricted cash, a decrease of approximately $0.5 million, or 12.3%, as compared to approximately $3.9 million as of December 31, 2017. The decrease of restricted cash was due to maturity and settlement of bank acceptance notes that were subsequently released from escrow.

156

Accounts Receivable

As of June 30, 2019, Zhongchai Holding had approximately $12.9 million of accounts receivables, net of allowance for doubtful account. As of December 31, 2018, Zhongchai Holding had approximately $10.2 million of accounts receivables, an increase of approximately $1.9 million or 23.5%, as compared to approximately $8.2 million as of December 31, 2017. The increase in accounts receivable was roughly in line with revenue growth. In 2017 and 2018, Zhongchai Holding’s accounts receivable turnover ratio was approximately 6.6 times per year. At December 31, 2018, approximately 50% of Zhongchai Holding’s total outstanding balance of accounts receivable were aged within one month; approximately 30% were aged within one year; and the remaining over one year.

Zhongchai Holding recorded approximately $1.0 million and $0.9 million of provision for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Zhongchai Holding conducted an aging analysis of each customer’s delinquent payments to determine whether allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate. In establishing the allowance for doubtful accounts, Zhongchai Holding considers historical experience, the economic environment, and the expected collectability of past due receivables. An estimate of doubtful accounts is recorded when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Known bad debts are written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts when identified. After Zhongchai Holding evaluated all the above considerations, Zhongchai Holding established a policy to provide a provision of 5% for accounts receivable aged within one year, provision of 20% for accounts receivable aged between one and two years, a provision of 50% for accounts receivable aged between two and three years, and a provision of 100% for accounts receivable aged over three years. Zhongchai Holding will continuously assess its potential losses based on the credit history and relationships with its customers on a regular basis to determine if its bad debt allowance on its accounts receivable is adequate. Zhongchai Holding believes that its collection policies are in line with the transmissions industry in China generally.

Notes Receivable

As of June 30, 2019, Zhongchai Holding had approximately $15.0 million of notes receivables. As of December 31, 2018, Zhongchai Holding had approximately $16.3 million of notes receivables. The decrease was approximately $0.4 million, or 2.2%, as compared to approximately $16.7 million as of December 31, 2017. The slight decrease reflects a decrease in bank acceptance notes due in 2018.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is one of the most significant risks for Zhongchai Holding’s business. Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and derived from revenues earned from customers, thereby exposing Zhongchai Holding to credit risk. Credit risk is controlled by the application of credit approvals, limits and monitoring procedures. Zhongchai Holding identifies credit risk collectively based on industry, geography and customer type. This information is monitored regularly by management. In measuring the credit risk of sales to customers, Zhongchai Holding mainly reflects the “probability of default” by the customer on its contractual obligations and considers the current financial position of the customer and the exposures to the customer and its likely future development.

Liquidity Risk

Zhongchai Holding is also exposed to liquidity risk that it is unable to provide sufficient capital resources and liquidity to meet its commitments and/or business needs. Liquidity risk is managed by the application of financial position analysis to test if Zhongchai Holding is in danger of liquidity issues and also by application of monitoring procedures to constantly observing its conditions and movements. When necessary, Zhongchai Holding resorts to other financial institutions to obtain additional short-term funding to meet the liquidity shortage.

Inflation Risk

Zhongchai Holding is also exposed to inflation risk. Inflationary factors, such as increases in raw material and overhead costs, could impair Zhongchai Holding’s operating results. Although Zhongchai Holding does not believe that inflation has had a material impact on its financial position or results of operations to date, a high rate of inflation in the future may have an adverse effect on its ability to maintain current levels of gross margin and operating expenses as a percentage of sales revenues if the selling prices of its products do not increase with such increased costs.

Contractual Obligations

Zhongchai Holding is a party to contractual obligations involving commitments to make payments to third parties, including certain financing arrangements, capital lease (for manufacturing equipment) and operating lease (for current manufacturing plant and corporate offices). The following table sets forth, as of December 31, 2018, certain obligations that may affect our future liquidity:

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

Zhongchai Holding has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. However, actual results could differ materially from those estimates (See Note 2 to Zhongchai Holding’s financial statements included in this proxy statement).

New Financial Accounting Pronouncements

Recent accounting pronouncements that the Company has adopted or may be required to adopt in the future are summarized below:

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13,” Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, to require financial assets carried at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected based on historical experience, current conditions and forecasts. Subsequently, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments, in April 2019. to clarify that receivables arising from operating leases are within the scope of lease accounting standards. The ASUs are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. Adoption of the ASUs is modified retrospective. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers Other than Inventory, which requires companies to recognize the income-tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs, rather than when the asset has been sold to an outside party. The Company started adoption of ASU 2016-16 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017.The impact of adoption on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements for any period presented is not material.

In February 2016, the FASB established Topic 842, Leases, by issuing Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize leases on-balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842; ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases; and ASU No. 2018-11, Targeted Improvements. The new standard establishes a right-of-use model (ROU) that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement. Operating leases result in straight-line expense (similar to operating leases under the prior accounting standard) while finance leases result in a front-loaded expense pattern (similar to capital leases under the prior accounting standard). The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years for a public business entity. Early application of the amendments in this Update is permitted for all entities. As of December 31, 2018, the Company concluded its nominal “sale-leaseback” transaction does not qualify for sale-leaseback accounting in accordance with ASC 840-40-25-11 and shall record under the lease financing method. Under the lease financing method, the assets remain on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and the proceeds from the transactions are recorded as a financing liability. The Company started adoption of ASU 2016-02 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Under ASC 842, the Company concluded the transactions do not qualify for the sale-leaseback accounting in accordance with ASC 842-40-25-5 and shall not derecognize the transferred asset and shall account for any amounts received as a financial liability. Thus, the impact of adoption on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements for any period presented is not material.

160

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04 (Topic 350) Intangibles — Goodwill and Other: Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. Under the amended guidance, a goodwill impairment charge will now be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. This ASU will be applied on a prospective basis and is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for any impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. The Company does not expect the adoption will have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13 Disclosure Framework — Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which eliminates, adds, and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements under ASC 820. This ASU is to be applied on a prospective basis for certain modified or new disclosure requirements, and all other amendments in the standard are to be applied on a retrospective basis. The new standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

165

For more information about Min Zhang, Everett Xiaolin Wang and Hong Liang Lu, see the section entitled “Proposal 4: The Director Election Proposal.”

Corporate Governance Guidelines and Code of Business Conduct

The Greenland Board will adopt Corporate Governance Guidelines that address items such as the qualifications and responsibilities of its directors and director candidates and corporate governance policies and standards applicable. In addition, the Greenland Board will adopt a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to all of its employees, officers and directors, including its Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other executive and senior financial officers. The full text of the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines and its Code of Business Conduct and Ethics will be posted on the Corporate Governance portion of the Company’s website. The Company will post amendments to its Code of Business Conduct and Ethics or waivers of its Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for directors and officers on the same website.

Board Composition

The Company’s business affairs will be managed under the direction of the Greenland Board. The Greenland Board will consist of five members, four of whom will qualify as independent within the meaning of the independent director guidelines of Nasdaq. Mr. Peter Zuguang Wang will not be considered independent.

The Greenland Board will be divided into two staggered classes of directors. At each annual meeting of its shareholders, a class of directors will be elected for a two-year term to succeed the same class whose term is then expiring, as follows:

•        the Class I directors will be Messrs. Min Zhang, Everett Xiaolin Wang and Hong Liang Lu and their terms will expire at the annual meeting of shareholders to be held in 2020; and

•        the Class II directors will be Messrs. Peter Zuguang Wang and Yanming Liu and their terms will expire at the annual meeting of shareholders to be held in 2021.

The Memorandum and Articles of Association will provide that the Greenland Board will consist of one or more members, and the number of directors may be increased or decreased from time to time by a resolution of the Greenland Board. Each director’s term will continue until the election and qualification of his or her successor, or his or her earlier death, resignation, or removal. Any increase or decrease in the number of directors will be distributed among the two classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of one-half of the total number of directors. This classification of the Greenland Board may have the effect of delaying or preventing changes in control of the Company.

Each of the Company’s officers will serve at the discretion of the Greenland Board and will hold office until his or her successor is duly appointed and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation or removal. There are no family relationships among any of the persons expected to be directors or officers of the Company upon the consummation of the Business Combination, except that Peter Zuguang Wang is father of Raymond Z. Wang.

Director Independence

Under the rules of Nasdaq, independent directors must comprise a majority of a listed company’s board of directors. In addition, the rules of Nasdaq require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company’s audit, compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees be independent. Under the rules of Nasdaq, a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if, in the opinion of that company’s board of directors, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. Audit committee members must also satisfy the additional independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act and the rules of Nasdaq. Compensation committee members must also satisfy the additional independence criteria set forth in Rule 10C-1 under the Exchange Act and the rules of Nasdaq.

In order to be considered independent for purposes of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act and under the rules of Nasdaq, a member of an audit committee of a listed company may not, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the committee, the board of directors, or any other board committee: (1) accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the listed company or any of its subsidiaries; or (2) be an affiliated person of the listed company or any of its subsidiaries.

166

To be considered independent for purposes of Rule 10C-1 under the Exchange Act and under the rules of Nasdaq, the board of directors must affirmatively determine that the member of the compensation committee is independent, including a consideration of all factors specifically relevant to determining whether the director has a relationship to the company which is material to that director’s ability to be independent from management in connection with the duties of a compensation committee member, including, but not limited to: (i) the source of compensation of such director, including any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee paid by the company to such director; and (ii) whether such director is affiliated with the company, a subsidiary of the company or an affiliate of a subsidiary of the company.

The Greenland Board has undertaken a review of the independence of each director and considered whether each director of the Company has a material relationship with the Company that could compromise his or her ability to exercise independent judgment in carrying out his or her responsibilities. As a result of this review, Greenland determined that Messrs. Yanming Liu, Min Zhang, Everett Xiaolin Wang and Hong Liang Lu will be considered “independent directors” as defined under the listing requirements and rules of Nasdaq and the applicable rules of the Exchange Act.

Board Leadership Structure

Greenland believes that the structure of the Greenland Board and its committees will provide strong overall management of the Company.

Committees of the Greenland Board

The Greenland Board will have an audit committee and compensation committee. The composition and responsibilities of each of the committees of the Greenland Board is described below. Members will serve on these committees until their resignation or until as otherwise determined by the Greenland Board.

Audit Committee

Each of the members of the Company’s audit committee will satisfy the requirements for independence and financial literacy under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and rules of Nasdaq. The Company will also determine that a member of the audit committee will qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in the SEC rules and will satisfy the financial sophistication requirements of Nasdaq. The Company’s audit committee will be responsible for, among other things:

•        selecting a qualified firm to serve as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company’s financial statements;

•        helping to ensure the independence and performance of the independent registered public accounting firm;

•        discussing the scope and results of the audit with the independent registered public accounting firm and reviewing, with management and the independent registered public accounting firm, the Company’s interim and year-end financial statements;

The Greenland Board will adopt a written charter for the audit committee which will be available on the Company’s website upon the completion of the Business Combination.

167

Compensation Committee

Each of the members of the Company’s compensation committee will meet the requirements for independence under the under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and rules of Nasdaq. The Company’s compensation committee will be responsible for, among other things:

168

Related Person Policy of the Company

The Company will adopt a formal written policy that will be effective upon the Business Combination providing that the Company’s officers, directors, nominees for election as directors, beneficial owners of more than 5% of any class of the Company’s capital stock, any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons and any firm, corporation or other entity in which any of the foregoing persons is employed or is a general partner or principal or in a similar position or in which such person has a 5% or greater beneficial ownership interest, are not permitted to enter into a related party transaction with the Company without the approval of the Company’s nominating and corporate governance committee, subject to the exceptions described below.

A related person transaction is a transaction, arrangement or relationship, or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships, in which the Company and any related person are, were or will be participants in which the amount involves exceeds $120,000. Transactions involving compensation for services provided to the Company as an employee or director are not covered by this policy.

Under the policy, the Company will collect information that the Company deems reasonably necessary from each director, executive officer and, to the extent feasible, significant shareholder, to enable the Company to identify any existing or potential related-person transactions and to effectuate the terms of the policy. In addition, under the Code of Conduct, employees and directors have an affirmative responsibility to disclose any transaction or relationship that reasonably could be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest.

The policy requires that, in determining whether to approve, ratify or reject a related person transaction, the Company’s nominating and corporate governance committee, or other independent body of the Greenland Board, must consider, in light of known circumstances, whether the transaction is in, or is not inconsistent with, the Company’s best interests and those of the Company’s shareholders, as the Company’s nominating and corporate governance committee, or other independent body of the Greenland Board, determines in the good faith exercise of its discretion.

The Company’s nominating and corporate governance committee has determined that certain transactions will not require the approval of the nominating and corporate governance committee, including certain employment arrangements of officers, director compensation, transactions with another company at which a related party’s only relationship is as a director, non-executive employee or beneficial owner of less than 10% of that company’s outstanding capital stock, transactions where a related party’s interest arises solely from the ownership of the Greenland Shares and all holders of the Greenland Shares received the same benefit on a pro rata basis and transactions available to all employees generally.

169

SECURITIES ACT RESTRICTIONS ON RESALE OF THE COMPANY’S SECURITIES

Pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), a person who has beneficially owned restricted Greenland Shares or Company warrants for at least six months would be entitled to sell their securities provided that (i) such person is not deemed to have been an affiliate of the Company at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale and (ii) the Company is subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least three months before the sale and have filed all required reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the twelve months (or such shorter period as the Company was required to file reports) preceding the sale.

Persons who have beneficially owned restricted Greenland Shares or Company warrants for at least six months but who are affiliates of the Company at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of:

•        1% of the total number of Greenland Shares then outstanding (as of the date of this proxy statement, there are 5,782,000 Greenland Shares outstanding); or

•        the average weekly reported trading volume of the Greenland Shares during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale

Sales by affiliates of the Company under Rule 144 are also limited by manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about the Company.

Restrictions on the Use of Rule 144 by Shell Companies or Former Shell Companies

Rule 144 is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by shell companies (other than business combination related shell companies) or issuers that have been at any time previously a shell company. However, Rule 144 also includes an important exception to this prohibition if the following conditions are met:

•        the issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company;

•        the issuer of the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;

•        the issuer of the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and material required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding twelve months (or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports; and

•        at least one year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed current Form 10 type information with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.

As a result, the Sponsor will be able to sell its Founder Shares and Private Placement Units, as applicable, pursuant to Rule 144 without registration one year after Greenland has completed its initial business combination.

Greenland anticipates that following the completion of the Business Combination, the Company will no longer be a shell company, and so, once the conditions set forth in the exceptions listed above are satisfied, Rule 144 will become available for the resale of the above noted restricted securities.

GREENLAND ACQUISITION CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MAY 31, 2019
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Greenland Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on December 28, 2017. The Company was formed for the purpose of acquiring, engaging in a share exchange, share reconstruction and amalgamation with, purchasing all or substantially all of the assets of, entering into contractual arrangements with, or engaging in any other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (“Business Combination”).

At May 31, 2019, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activity through May 31, 2019 relates to the Company’s formation, its initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), which is described below, identifying a target company for a Business Combination and activities in connection with the proposed acquisition of Zhongchai Holding (Hong Kong) Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong (“Zhongchai Holding”) (see Note 10).

The registration statement for the Initial Public Offering was declared effective on July 24, 2018. On July 27, 2018, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 4,400,000 units (“Units” and, with respect to the ordinary shares included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”), which includes a partial exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 400,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $44,000,000, which is described in Note 4.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 282,000 Units (the “Private Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit in a private placement to the Company’s sponsor, Greenland Asset Management Corporation (the “Sponsor”) and Chardan Capital Markets, LLC (and its designees) (“Chardan”), generating gross proceeds of $2,820,000, which is described in Note 5.

Transaction costs amounted to $2,752,449, consisting of $1,320,000 of underwriting fees, $978,314 of deferred underwriting fees (see Note 7) and $454,135 of other costs. In addition, as of May 31, 2019, $344,842 of cash was held outside of the Trust Account (as defined below) and is available for working capital purposes.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on July 27, 2018, an amount of $44,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Units was placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”) which was invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 180 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account to its shareholders, as described below.

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and sale of the Private Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. NASDAQ rules provide that the Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Account (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned) at the time of the signing of an agreement to enter into a Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.

The Company will provide its shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. In connection with a proposed Business Combination, the Company may seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which

F-6

GREENLAND ACQUISITION CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MAY 31, 2019
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (cont.)

shareholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against a Business Combination. The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks shareholder approval, a majority of the outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination.

If the Company seeks shareholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provides that a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to 15% or more of the Public Shares without the Company’s prior written consent.

The shareholders will be entitled to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially $10.00 per share, subject to increase of up to an additional $0.30 per Unit in the event that the Sponsor elects to extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination (see below), plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations). The per-share amount to be distributed to shareholders who redeem their shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriter (as discussed in Note 8). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants or rights.

If a shareholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, offer such redemption pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination.

The Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors (the “initial shareholders”) and Chardan have agreed (a) to vote their founder shares (see Note 6), the ordinary shares included in the Private Units (the “Private Shares”) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of a Business Combination, (b) not to propose an amendment to the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association with respect to the Company’s pre-Business Combination activities prior to the consummation of a Business Combination unless the Company provides dissenting public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment, (c) not to redeem any ordinary shares (including the founder shares) and Private Units (including underlying securities) into the right to receive cash from the Trust Account in connection with a shareholder vote to approve a Business Combination (or to sell any ordinary shares in a tender offer in connection with a Business Combination if the Company does not seek shareholder approval in connection therewith) or a vote to amend the provisions of the Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association relating to shareholders’ rights of pre-Business Combination activity and (d) that the founder shares and Private Units (including underlying securities) shall not participate in any liquidating distributions upon winding up if a Business Combination is not consummated. However, the initial shareholders will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering if the Company fails to complete its Business Combination.

The Company will have until July 27, 2019 to consummate a Business Combination. However, if the Company anticipates that it may not be able to consummate a Business Combination by July 27, 2019, the Company may extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to two times, each by an additional three months (for a total of 21 months to complete a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”)). In order to extend the time available for the Company to consummate a Business Combination, the Sponsor or its affiliate or designees must deposit into the Trust Account $440,000, or $0.10 per Unit, on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each three month extension.

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (cont.)

If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than five business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned (net of taxes payable and less interest to pay dissolution expenses up to $50,000), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company, subject in each case to its obligations to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of applicable law. The underwriter has agreed to waive its rights to the deferred underwriting commission held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than $10.00 per share.

The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company, if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amounts in the Trust Account to below $10.00 per share, subject to increase of up to an additional $0.30 per share in the event that the Company elects to extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

As of May 31, 2019, the Company had $344,842 in its operating bank accounts, $44,829,414 in marketable securities held in the Trust Account to be used for a Business Combination or to repurchase or redeem shares in connection therewith and working capital of $102,875. As of May 31, 2019, approximately $829,000 of the amount on deposit in the Trust Account represented interest income, which is available to pay the Company’s tax obligations. To date the Company has not withdrawn any interest from the Trust Account in order to pay its taxes.

Until the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company will be using the funds not held in the Trust Account primarily to pay the expenses of being a public company and to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, select the target business to acquire and structure, negotiate and consummate a Business Combination.

Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company entered into consulting arrangements for services to help identify and introduce the Company to potential targets and provide assistance with due diligence, deal structuring and documentation of a Business Combination. These agreements provide for aggregate monthly fees of approximately $30,000.

On April 29, 2019, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note to the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Company borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $250,000 (see Note 6).

NOTE 2. LIQUIDITY (cont.)

The Company may raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from the Sponsor, an affiliate of the Sponsor, or its officers and directors. The Company’s officers and directors and the Sponsor or its affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds, from time to time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet the Company’s working capital needs.

Other than borrowings currently outstanding under the promissory note in the aggregate amount of $250,000 as described above, the Company does not believe it will need to raise additional funds in order to meet expenditures required for operating its business. Neither the Sponsor or its affiliates, nor any of the officers or directors are under any obligation to advance funds to, or invest in, the Company. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. Should circumstances change and the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. Even if the Company can obtain sufficient financing or raise additional capital, it only has until July 27, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if fully extended) to consummate a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to do so prior to July 27, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if fully extended).

NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in U.S. dollars and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period from December 28, 2017 (inception) through November 30, 2018 as filed with the SEC on February 27, 2019, which contains the audited financial statements and notes thereto. The financial information as of November 30, 2018 is derived from the audited financial statements presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period from December 28, 2017 (inception) through November 30, 2018. The interim results for the three and six months ended May 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending November 30, 2019 or for any future interim periods.

Emerging growth company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from the Company’s estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of May 31, 2019 and November 30, 2018.

Marketable securities held in Trust Account

At May 31, 2019 and November 30, 2018, the assets held in the Trust Account were substantially held in U.S. Treasury Bills.

Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption

The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet.

Income taxes

The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income

NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the British Virgin Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of May 31, 2019 and November 30, 2018. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.

The Company may be subject to potential examination by foreign taxing authorities in the area of income taxes. These potential examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with foreign tax laws. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

The Company is considered to be an exempted British Virgin Islands Company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction, and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the British Virgin Islands or the United States. As such, the Company’s tax provision is zero.

Net loss per ordinary share

Net loss per ordinary share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. The Company applies the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption at May 31, 2019, which are not currently redeemable and are not redeemable at fair value, have been excluded from the calculation of basic net loss per ordinary share since such ordinary shares, if redeemed, only participate in their pro rata share of the Trust Account earnings. The Company has not considered the effect of (1) warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering and the private placement to purchase 2,341,000 ordinary shares, (2) rights sold in the Initial Public Offering and the private placement that convert into 468,200 ordinary shares, and (3) a unit purchase option sold to the underwriter is exercisable for 240,000 ordinary shares, warrants to purchase 120,000 ordinary shares and rights that convert into 24,000 ordinary shares, in the calculation of diluted loss per share, since the exercise of the warrants and the conversion of the rights into ordinary shares are contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As a result, diluted net loss per ordinary share is the same as basic net loss per ordinary share for the periods presented.

NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

Reconciliation of net loss per ordinary share

The Company’s net loss is adjusted for the portion of income that is attributable to ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, as these shares only participate in the earnings of the Trust Account and not the income or losses of the Company. Accordingly, basic and diluted loss per ordinary share is calculated as follows:

Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution. At May 31, 2019 and November 30, 2018, the Company had not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

Fair value of financial instruments

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.

Recently issued accounting standards

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s condensed financial statements.

NOTE 4. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering, the Company sold 4,400,000 Units at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit, which included a partial exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 400,000 Units at $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one ordinary share, one right (“Public Right”) and one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each Public Right will convert into one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon consummation of a Business Combination. Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one-half of one ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share (see Note 8).

NOTE 5. PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor and Chardan purchased an aggregate of 282,000 Private Units at $10.00 per Private Unit for aggregate purchase price of $2,820,000, of which 260,000 Private Units were purchased by the Sponsor and 22,000 Private Units were purchased by Chardan. The proceeds from the sale of the Private Units were added to the net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account.

The Private Units are identical to the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except for the private warrants (the “Private Warrants”), as described in Note 8. In addition, the Private Units are not transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Units will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Units and underlying securities will expire worthless.

NOTE 6. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

In March 2018, the Company issued an aggregate of 1,150,000 founder shares to the Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 in cash. The founder shares included an aggregate of up to 150,000 shares subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment was not exercised in full or in part, so that the Sponsor would collectively own 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming the initial shareholders did not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering and excluding the Private Units and underlying securities). As a result of the underwriters’ election to partially exercise their over-allotment option to purchase 400,000 Units and the waiver of the remainder of their overallotment option, 100,000 founder shares were no longer subject to forfeiture and 50,000 founder shares were forfeited.

The initial shareholders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the founder shares (except to certain permitted transferees) until, with respect to 50% of the founder shares, the earlier of (i) six months after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, or (ii) the date on which the closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after a Business Combination, with respect to the remaining 50% of the founder shares, upon six months after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, or earlier, in each case, if, subsequent to a Business Combination, the Company consummates a subsequent liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

Promissory Note — Related Party

On April 29, 2019, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note to the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Company borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $250,000. The note is non-interest bearing and payable upon the consummation of a Business Combination. As of May 31, 2019, there was $250,000 outstanding under the promissory note.

Administrative Services Arrangement

The Company entered into an agreement with Puhui Wealth Investment Management (Beijing) Co., Ltd. (“Puhui”), an affiliate of a member of the Sponsor whereby, commencing on July 24, 2018 through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation, Puhui agreed to make available to the Company certain general and administrative services, including office space, utilities and administrative services, as the Company may require from time to time. The Company pays Puhui $10,000 per month for these services. For the three and six months ended May 31, 2019, the Company incurred $30,000 and $60,000 in fees for these services, respectively. As of May 31, 2019 and November 30, 2018, $30,000 and $10,000 of such fees are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying condensed balance sheets.

NOTE 6. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (cont.)

Related Party Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). Such Working Capital Loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The notes would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of notes may be converted upon consummation of a Business Combination into additional Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans.

Related Party Extension Loans

As discussed in Note 1, the Company may extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to three times, each by an additional three months (for a total of 21 months to complete a Business Combination). In order to extend the time available for the Company to consummate a Business Combination, the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees must deposit into the Trust Account $440,000, or $0.10 per Unit, on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each three month extension. Any such payments would be made in the form of a loan. The terms of the promissory note to be issued in connection with any such loans have not yet been negotiated. If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination, the Company will not repay such loans. Furthermore, the letter agreement with the initial shareholders contains a provision pursuant to which the Sponsor has agreed to waive its right to be repaid for such loans in the event that the Company does not complete a Business Combination. The Sponsor and its affiliates or designees are not obligated to fund the Trust Account to extend the time for the Company to complete a Business Combination.

NOTE 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Registration Rights

Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into on July 24, 2018, the holders of the founder shares, Private Units (and their underlying securities) and any Units that may be issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans (and underlying securities) are entitled to registration rights. The holders of 25% of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the consummation of a Business Combination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Chardan may not exercise its demand and “piggyback” registration rights after five (5) and seven (7) years, respectively, after the effective date of the registration statement and may not exercise its demand rights on more than one occasion. The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidating damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

The underwriters were paid a cash underwriting discount of $1,320,000. In addition, the underwriters deferred their fee of $995,676, which assumes the redemption of 3,821,622 ordinary shares as of May 31, 2019 in connection with a Business Combination. However, in the event no shares are redeemed, the underwriters would be entitled to a fee of $1,760,000. The deferred fee will be paid in cash upon the closing of a Business Combination from the amounts held in the Trust Account, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

NOTE 8. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Preferred Shares — The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of no par value preferred shares, divided into five classes, Class A through Class E, each with such designation, rights and preferences as may be determined by a resolution of the Company’s board of directors to amend the Memorandum and Articles of Association to create such designations, rights and preferences. The Company has five classes of preferred shares to give the Company flexibility as to the terms on which each Class is issued. All shares of a single class must be issued with the same rights and obligations. Accordingly, starting with five classes of preferred shares will allow the Company to issue shares at different times on different terms. At May 31, 2019 and November 30, 2018, there were no preferred shares designated, issued or outstanding.

Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of no par value ordinary shares. Holders of the Company’s ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. At May 31, 2019 and November 30, 2018, there were 1,960,378 and 1,906,542 ordinary shares issued and outstanding, excluding 3,821,622 and 3,875,458 ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, respectively.

Rights — Each holder of a right will receive one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon consummation of a Business Combination, even if the holder of such right redeemed all Public Shares held by it in connection with a Business Combination. No fractional shares will be issued upon exchange of the rights. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of rights in order to receive its additional shares upon consummation of a Business Combination as the consideration related thereto has been included in the Unit purchase price paid for by investors in the Initial Public Offering. If the Company enters into a definitive agreement for a Business Combination in which the Company will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement provides for the holders of rights to receive the same per share consideration the holders of the ordinary shares will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into ordinary share basis and each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively convert its rights in order to receive the 1/10 of one share underlying each right (without paying additional consideration). The shares issuable upon exchange of the rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of the Company).

If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of rights will not receive any of such funds with respect to their rights, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such rights, and the rights will expire worthless. Further, there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver securities to the holders of the rights upon consummation of a Business Combination. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the rights. Accordingly, the rights may expire worthless.

Warrants — Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) the consummation of a Business Combination or (b) July 24, 2019. No Public Warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants and a current prospectus relating to such ordinary shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Public Warrants is not effective within 90 days from the consummation of a Business Combination, the holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise the Public Warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act. If an exemption from registration is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their Public Warrants on a cashless basis. The Public Warrants will expire five years from the consummation of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company may call the warrants for redemption (excluding the Private Warrants), in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per warrant:

•        at any time while the Public Warrants are exercisable,

•        upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each Public Warrant holder,

NOTE 8. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY (cont.)

•        if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the ordinary shares equals or exceeds $16.50 per share, for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the notice of redemption to Public Warrant holders, and

•        if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the ordinary shares underlying such warrants at the time of redemption and for the entire 30-day trading period referred to above and continuing each day thereafter until the date of redemption.

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.

The Private Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Warrants and the ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Warrants are not transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis and are non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

Unit Purchase Option

On July 27, 2018, the Company sold to Chardan (and its designees), for $100, an option to purchase up to 240,000 Units exercisable at $11.50 per Unit (or an aggregate exercise price of $2,760,000) commencing on the later of July 24, 2019 and the consummation of a Business Combination. The unit purchase option may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option, and expires July 24, 2023. The Units issuable upon exercise of the option are identical to those offered in the Initial Public Offering. The Company accounted for the unit purchase option, inclusive of the receipt of $100 cash payment, as an expense of the Initial Public Offering resulting in a charge directly to shareholders’ equity. The option and such units purchased pursuant to the option, as well as the ordinary shares underlying such units, the rights included in such units, the ordinary shares that are issuable for the rights included in such units, the warrants included in such units, and the shares underlying such warrants, have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a 180-day lock-up pursuant to Rule 5110(g)(1) of FINRA’s NASDAQ Conduct Rules. Additionally, the option may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated for a one-year period (including the foregoing 180-day period) following the date of Initial Public Offering except to any underwriter and selected dealer participating in the Initial Public Offering and their bona fide officers or partners. The option grants to holders demand and “piggy back” rights for periods of five and seven years, respectively, from the effective date of the registration statement with respect to the registration under the Securities Act of the securities directly and indirectly issuable upon exercise of the option. The Company will bear all fees and expenses attendant to registering the securities, other than underwriting commissions which will be paid for by the holders themselves. The exercise price and number of units issuable upon exercise of the option may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, or the Company’s recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the option will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price below its exercise price.

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company follows the guidance in ASC 820 for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually.

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

Level 1:

 

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2:

 

Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3:

 

Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at May 31, 2019 and November 30, 2018 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

NOTE 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the financial statements were issued. Other than as described below, based upon this review, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

Share Exchange Agreement

On July 12, 2019, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with Zhongchai Holding, the Sponsor, in the capacity thereunder as the purchaser representative (the “Purchaser Representative”), and Cenntro Holding Limited, the sole member of Zhongchai Holding (the “Zhongchai Equity Holder”), pursuant to which, among other things and subject to the terms and conditions contained therein, the Company will consummate the acquisition of all of the outstanding capital stock of Zhongchai Holding through a share exchange, with Zhongchai Holding becoming a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Zhongchai Business Combination”). Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company will issue 7,500,000 ordinary shares to the Zhongchai Equity Holder.

NOTE 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (cont.)

Ten percent (10%) of the Exchange Shares (“Escrow Shares”) will be deposited in escrow at the closing of the Zhongchai Business Combination (the “Closing”) for a period of eighteen (18) months (subject to further retention in the escrow account to the extent that there are pending indemnification claims brought prior to such time). During such time, the Escrow Shares will be subject to forfeiture back to the Company (along with dividends and other earnings otherwise payable with respect to such Escrow Shares) in the event that the Purchaser Representative successfully brings an indemnification claim under the Share Exchange Agreement on behalf of the Company’s shareholders. The Zhongchai Equity Holder will be entitled to vote the Escrow Shares while they are held in escrow.

The Zhongchai Business Combination will be consummated subject to the deliverables and provisions as further described in the Share Exchange Agreement.

Effective July 24, 2019, the Company extended the period of time the Company has to consummate a business combination. In connection therewith, the Sponsor deposited into the trust account (the “Trust Account”) an aggregate of $440,000, representing $0.10 per public share, in order to extend the period of time the Company has to consummate a business combination by three months to October 25, 2019. The Sponsor will have the option, but no obligation, to extend such period of time an additional two times, each by an additional three months, up to April 27, 2020, by depositing an aggregate of an additional $880,000 into the Trust Account, representing an additional $0.20 per public share, in connection with such additional extensions.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of

Greenland Acquisition Corporation

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Greenland Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) as of November 30, 2018, the related statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the period from December 28, 2017 (inception) through November 30, 2018, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of November 30, 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from December 28, 2017 (inception) through November 30, 2018, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

GREENLAND ACQUISITION CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOVEMBER 30, 2018

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Greenland Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on December 28, 2017. The Company was formed for the purpose of acquiring, engaging in a share exchange, share reconstruction and amalgamation with, purchasing all or substantially all of the assets of, entering into contractual arrangements with, or engaging in any other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (“Business Combination”). Although the Company is not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of consummating a Business Combination, the Company intends to focus on businesses that have their primary operations located in China. The Company has selected November 30 as its fiscal year end.

At November 30, 2018, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activity through November 30, 2018 relates to the Company’s formation, its initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), which is described below, and identifying a target company for a Business Combination.

The registration statement for the Initial Public Offering was declared effective on July 24, 2018. On July 27, 2018, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 4,400,000 units (“Units” and, with respect to the ordinary shares included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”), which includes a partial exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 400,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $44,000,000, which is described in Note 4.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 282,000 Units (the “Private Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit in a private placement to the Company’s sponsor, Greenland Asset Management Corporation (the “Sponsor”) and Chardan Capital Markets, LLC (and their designees) (“Chardan”), generating gross proceeds of $2,820,000, which is described in Note 5.

Transaction costs amounted to $2,752,449, consisting of $1,320,000 of underwriting fees, $978,314 of deferred underwriting fees (see Note 7) and $454,135 of other costs. In addition, as of July 27, 2018, $1,035,797 of cash was held outside of the Trust Account (as defined below) and is available for working capital purposes.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on July 27, 2018, an amount of $44,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Units was placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”) which was invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 180 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account to its shareholders, as described below.

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and sale of the Private Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. NASDAQ rules provide that the Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Account (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned) at the time of the signing of an agreement to enter into a Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.

The Company will provide its shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. In connection with a proposed Business Combination, the Company may seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which shareholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against a Business Combination.

F-24

GREENLAND ACQUISITION CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOVEMBER 30, 2018

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (cont.)

The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks shareholder approval, a majority of the outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination.

If the Company seeks shareholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provides that a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to 15% or more of the Public Shares without the Company’s prior written consent.

The shareholders will be entitled to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially $10.00 per share, subject to increase of up to an additional $0.30 per Unit in the event that the Sponsor elects to extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination (see below), plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations). The per-share amount to be distributed to shareholders who redeem their shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriter (as discussed in Note 8). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants or rights.

If a shareholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, offer such redemption pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination.

The Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors (the “initial shareholders”) and Chardan have agreed (a) to vote their founder shares (see Note 6), the ordinary shares included in the Private Units (the “Private Shares”) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of a Business Combination, (b) not to propose an amendment to the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association with respect to the Company’s pre-Business Combination activities prior to the consummation of a Business Combination unless the Company provides dissenting public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment, (c) not to redeem any shares (including the founder shares) and Private Units (including underlying securities) into the right to receive cash from the Trust Account in connection with a shareholder vote to approve a Business Combination (or to sell any shares in a tender offer in connection with a Business Combination if the Company does not seek shareholder approval in connection therewith) or a vote to amend the provisions of the Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association relating to shareholders’ rights of pre-Business Combination activity and (d) that the founder shares and Private Units (including underlying securities) shall not participate in any liquidating distributions upon winding up if a Business Combination is not consummated. However, the initial shareholders will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering if the Company fails to complete its Business Combination.

The Company will have until July 27, 2019 to consummate a Business Combination. However, if the Company anticipates that it may not be able to consummate a Business Combination by July 27, 2019, the Company may extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to three times, each by an additional three months (for a total of 21 months to complete a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”)). In order to extend the time available for the Company to consummate a Business Combination, the Sponsor or its affiliate or designees must deposit into the Trust Account $440,000, or $0.10 per Unit, on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each three month extension.

If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than five business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable

in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned (net of taxes payable and less interest to pay dissolution expenses up to $50,000), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company, subject in each case to its obligations to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of applicable law. The underwriter has agreed to waive its rights to the deferred underwriting commission held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than $10.00 per share.

The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company, if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amounts in the Trust Account to below $10.00 per share, subject to increase of up to an additional $0.30 per share in the event that the Company elects to extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

NOTE 2. LIQUIDITY

As of November 30, 2018, the Company had $644,700 in its operating bank accounts, $44,307,387 in marketable securities held in the Trust Account to be used for a Business Combination or to repurchase or convert shares in connection therewith and working capital of $697,967. As of November 30, 2018, approximately $316,000 of the amount on deposit in the Trust Account represented interest income, which is available to pay the Company’s tax obligations. To date the Company has not withdrawn any interest from the Trust Account in order to pay its taxes.

Until the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company will be using the funds not held in the Trust Account primarily to pay the expenses of being a public company and to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, select the target business to acquire and structure, negotiate and consummate a Business Combination.

Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company entered into consulting arrangements for services to help identify and introduce the Company to potential targets and provide assistance with due diligence, deal structuring and documentation of a Business Combination. These agreements provide for aggregate monthly fees of approximately $33,000.

The Company may raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from the Sponsor, an affiliate of the Sponsor, or its officers and directors. The Company’s officers and directors and the Sponsor or its affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds, from time to time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet the Company’s working capital needs.

F-26

GREENLAND ACQUISITION CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOVEMBER 30, 2018

NOTE 2. LIQUIDITY (cont.)

The Company does not believe it will need to raise additional funds in order to meet expenditures required for operating its business. Neither the Sponsor or its affiliates, nor any of the officers or directors are under any obligation to advance funds to, or invest in, the Company. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. Should circumstances change and the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. Even if the Company can obtain sufficient financing or raise additional capital, it only has until July 27, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if fully extended) to consummate a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to do so prior to July 27, 2019 (or April 27, 2020, if fully extended).

NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

The accompanying financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Emerging growth company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from the Company’s estimates.

NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of November 30, 2018.

Marketable securities held in Trust Account

At November 30, 2018, the assets held in the Trust Account were substantially held in U.S. Treasury Bills.

Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption

The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at November 30, 2018, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet.

Income taxes

The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the British Virgin Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of November 30, 2018. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.

The Company may be subject to potential examination by foreign taxing authorities in the area of income taxes. These potential examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with foreign tax laws. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

The Company is considered to be an exempted British Virgin Islands Company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction, and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the British Virgin Islands or the United States. As such, the Company’s tax provision is zero.

Net loss per ordinary share

Net loss per ordinary share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. The Company applies the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption at November 30, 2018, which are not currently redeemable and are not

F-28

GREENLAND ACQUISITION CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOVEMBER 30, 2018

NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

redeemable at fair value, have been excluded from the calculation of basic net loss per ordinary share since such shares, if redeemed, only participate in their pro rata share of the Trust Account earnings. The Company has not considered the effect of (1) warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering and the private placement to purchase 2,341,000 ordinary shares, (2) rights sold in the Initial Public Offering and the private placement that convert into 468,200 ordinary shares, and (3) a unit purchase option sold to the underwriter is exercisable for 240,000 ordinary shares, warrants to purchase 120,000 ordinary shares and rights that convert into 24,000 ordinary shares, in the calculation of diluted loss per share, since the exercise of the warrants and the conversion of the rights into ordinary shares are contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As a result, diluted net loss per ordinary share is the same as basic net loss per ordinary share for the periods presented.

Reconciliation of net loss per ordinary share

The Company’s net loss is adjusted for the portion of income that is attributable to ordinary shares subject to redemption, as these shares only participate in the earnings of the Trust Account and not the income or losses of the Company. Accordingly, basic and diluted loss per ordinary share is calculated as follows:

Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution. At November 30, 2018, the Company had not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

Fair value of financial instruments

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.

Recently issued accounting standards

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 4. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering, the Company sold 4,400,000 Units at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit, which included a partial exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 400,000 Units at $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one ordinary share, one right (“Public Right”) and one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each Public Right will convert into one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon consummation of a Business Combination. Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one-half of one ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share (see Note 8).

F-29

GREENLAND ACQUISITION CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOVEMBER 30, 2018

NOTE 5. PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor and Chardan (and their designees) purchased an aggregate of 282,000 Private Units at $10.00 per Private Unit for aggregate purchase price of $2,820,000, of which 260,000 Private Units were purchased by the Sponsor and 22,000 Private Units were purchased by Chardan. The proceeds from the sale of the Private Units were added to the net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account.

The Private Units are identical to the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except for the private warrants (the “Private Warrants”), as described in Note 8. In addition, the Private Units are not transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Units will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Warrants and private rights will expire worthless.

NOTE 6. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

In March 2018, the Company issued an aggregate of 1,150,000 founder shares to the Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 in cash. The founder shares included an aggregate of up to 150,000 shares subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment was not exercised in full or in part, so that the Sponsor would collectively own 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming the initial shareholders did not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering and excluding the Private Units and underlying securities). As a result of the underwriters’ election to partially exercise their over-allotment option to purchase 400,000 Units and the waiver of the remainder of their overallotment option, 100,000 founder shares were no longer subject to forfeiture and 50,000 founder shares were forfeited.

The initial shareholders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the founder shares (except to certain permitted transferees) until, with respect to 50% of the founder shares, the earlier of (i) six months after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, or (ii) the date on which the closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after a Business Combination, with respect to the remaining 50% of the founder shares, upon six months after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, or earlier, in each case, if, subsequent to a Business Combination, the Company consummates a subsequent liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

Promissory Note — Related Party

On March 28, 2018, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note to the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Company borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $227,673. The note was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) September 30, 2018 or (ii) the consummation of the Initial Public Offering. The promissory note was repaid upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering on July 27, 2018.

Administrative Services Arrangement

The Company entered into an agreement with Puhui Wealth Investment Management (Beijing) Co., Ltd. (“Puhui”), an affiliate of a member of the Sponsor whereby, commencing on July 24, 2018 through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation, Puhui agreed to make available to the Company certain general and administrative services, including office space, utilities and administrative services, as the Company may require from time to time. The Company will pay Puhui $10,000 per month for these services. For the period from December 28, 2017 (inception) through November 30, 2018, the Company incurred $40,000 in fees for these services, of which $10,000 is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheet.

NOTE 6. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (cont.)

Related Party Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). Such Working Capital Loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The notes would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of notes may be converted upon consummation of a Business Combination into additional Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans.

Related Party Extension Loans

As discussed in Note 1, the Company may extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to three times, each by an additional three months (for a total of 21 months to complete a Business Combination). In order to extend the time available for the Company to consummate a Business Combination, the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees must deposit into the Trust Account $440,000, or $0.10 per Unit, on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each three month extension. Any such payments would be made in the form of a loan. The terms of the promissory note to be issued in connection with any such loans have not yet been negotiated. If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination, the Company will not repay such loans. Furthermore, the letter agreement with the initial shareholders contains a provision pursuant to which the Sponsor has agreed to waive its right to be repaid for such loans in the event that the Company does not complete a Business Combination. The Sponsor and its affiliates or designees are not obligated to fund the Trust Account to extend the time for the Company to complete a Business Combination.

NOTE 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Registration Rights

Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into on July 24, 2018, the holders of the founder shares, Private Units (and their underlying securities) and any Units that may be issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans (and underlying securities) are entitled to registration rights. The holders of 25% of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the consummation of a Business Combination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Chardan may not exercise its demand and “piggyback” registration rights after five (5) and seven (7) years after the effective date of the registration statement and may not exercise its demand rights on more than one occasion. The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidating damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

The underwriters were paid a cash underwriting discount of $1,320,000. In addition, the underwriters deferred their fee of $979,487, which assumes the redemption of 3,875,458 ordinary shares as of November 30, 2018 in connection with a Business Combination. However, in the event no shares are redeemed, the underwriters would be entitled to a fee of $1,760,000. The deferred fee will be paid in cash upon the closing of a Business Combination from the amounts held in the Trust Account, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

NOTE 8. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Preferred Shares — The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of no par value preferred shares, divided into five classes, Class A through Class E, each with such designation, rights and preferences as may be determined by a resolution of the Company’s board of directors to amend the Memorandum and Articles of Association

F-31

GREENLAND ACQUISITION CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOVEMBER 30, 2018

NOTE 8. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY (cont.)

to create such designations, rights and preferences. The Company has five classes of preferred shares to give the Company flexibility as to the terms on which each Class is issued. All shares of a single class must be issued with the same rights and obligations. Accordingly, starting with five classes of preferred shares will allow the Company to issue shares at different times on different terms. At November 30, 2018, there were no preferred shares designated, issued or outstanding.

Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of no par value ordinary shares. Holders of the Company’s ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. At November 30, 2018, there were 1,906,542 ordinary shares issued and outstanding, excluding 3,875,458 ordinary shares subject to possible redemption.

Rights — Each holder of a right will receive one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon consummation of a Business Combination, even if the holder of such right redeemed all Public Shares held by it in connection with a Business Combination. No fractional shares will be issued upon exchange of the rights. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of rights in order to receive its additional shares upon consummation of a Business Combination as the consideration related thereto has been included in the Unit purchase price paid for by investors in the Initial Public Offering. If the Company enters into a definitive agreement for a Business Combination in which the Company will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement provides for the holders of rights to receive the same per share consideration the holders of the ordinary shares will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into ordinary share basis and each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively convert its rights in order to receive the 1/10 of one share underlying each right (without paying additional consideration). The shares issuable upon exchange of the rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of the Company).

If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of rights will not receive any of such funds with respect to their rights, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such rights, and the rights will expire worthless. Further, there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver securities to the holders of the rights upon consummation of a Business Combination. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the rights. Accordingly, the rights may expire worthless.

Warrants — Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) the consummation of a Business Combination or (b) July 24, 2019. No Public Warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants and a current prospectus relating to such ordinary shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Public Warrants is not effective within 90 days from the consummation of a Business Combination, the holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise the Public Warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act. If an exemption from registration is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their Public Warrants on a cashless basis. The Public Warrants will expire five years from the consummation of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company may call the warrants for redemption (excluding the Private Warrants), in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per warrant:

•        at any time while the Public Warrants are exercisable,

•        upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each Public Warrant holder,

•        if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the ordinary shares equals or exceeds $16.50 per share, for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the notice of redemption to Public Warrant holders, and

F-32

GREENLAND ACQUISITION CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOVEMBER 30, 2018

NOTE 8. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY (cont.)

•        if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the ordinary shares underlying such warrants at the time of redemption and for the entire 30-day trading period referred to above and continuing each day thereafter until the date of redemption.

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.

The Private Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Warrants and the ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Warrants are not transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis and are non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

Unit Purchase Option

On July 27, 2018, the Company sold to Chardan (and its designees), for $100, an option to purchase up to 240,000 Units exercisable at $11.50 per Unit (or an aggregate exercise price of $2,760,000) commencing on the later of July 24, 2019 and the consummation of a Business Combination. The unit purchase option may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option, and expires July 24, 2023. The Units issuable upon exercise of the option are identical to those offered in the Initial Public Offering. The Company accounted for the unit purchase option, inclusive of the receipt of $100 cash payment, as an expense of the Initial Public Offering resulting in a charge directly to shareholders’ equity. The Company estimated the fair value of the unit purchase option to be approximately $732,000 (or $3.05 per Unit) using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of the unit purchase option granted to the underwriters was estimated as of the date of grant using the following assumptions: (1) expected volatility of 35%, (2) risk-free interest rate of 2.84% and (3) expected life of five years. The option and such units purchased pursuant to the option, as well as the ordinary shares underlying such units, the rights included in such units, the ordinary shares that are issuable for the rights included in such units, the warrants included in such units, and the shares underlying such warrants, have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a 180-day lock-up pursuant to Rule 5110(g)(1) of FINRA’s NASDAQ Conduct Rules. Additionally, the option may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated for a one-year period (including the foregoing 180-day period) following the date of Initial Public Offering except to any underwriter and selected dealer participating in the Initial Public Offering and their bona fide officers or partners. The option grants to holders demand and “piggy back” rights for periods of five and seven years, respectively, from the effective date of the registration statement with respect to the registration under the Securities Act of the securities directly and indirectly issuable upon exercise of the option. The Company will bear all fees and expenses attendant to registering the securities, other than underwriting commissions which will be paid for by the holders themselves. The exercise price and number of units issuable upon exercise of the option may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, or the Company’s recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the option will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price below its exercise price.

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company follows the guidance in ASC 820 for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually.

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

 

Level 1:

 

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

   

Level 2:

 

Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

   

Level 3:

 

Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at November 30, 2018, indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Zhongchai Holding (Hong Kong) Limited and its subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated and combined financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Non-controlling Interest

Non-controlling interests in the Company’s subsidiaries are recorded in accordance with the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification 810 Consolidation (“ASC 810”) and are reported as a component of equity, separate from the parent’s equity. Purchase or sale of equity interests that do not result in a change of control are accounted for as equity transactions. Results of operations attributable to the non-controlling interest are included in our consolidated results of operations and, upon loss of control, the interest sold, as well as interest retained, if any, will be reported at fair value with any gain or loss recognized in earnings.

Foreign Currency Translation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars (“US$” or “$”). The functional currency of the Company is Renminbi (“RMB”). The consolidated financial statements are translated into United States dollars from RMB at year-end exchange rates as to assets and liabilities and average exchange rates as to revenues and expenses. Capital accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred. The resulting transaction adjustments are recorded as a component of shareholders’ equity. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in net income.

The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US$ at the rates used in translation.

Revenue Recognition

In accordance with the ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, the Company recognizes revenues when goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In determining when and how revenues are recognized from contracts with customers, the Company performs the following five-step analysis: (i) identification of contract with customer; (ii) determination of performance obligations; (iii) measurement of the transaction price; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (v) recognition of revenues when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation. The Company derives revenues from the processing, distribution and sale of own products. The Company recognizes its revenues net of value-added taxes (“VAT”). The Company is subject to VAT which had been levied at the rate of 17% on the invoiced value of sales until April 30, 2018, after which date the rate was reduced to 16%. VAT rate was further reduced to 13% starting from April 1, 2019. Output VAT is borne by customers in addition to the invoiced value of sales and input VAT is borne by the Company in addition to the invoiced value of purchases to the extent not refunded for export sales.

Revenues are recognized at a point in time once the Company has determined that the customer has obtained control over the product. Control is typically deemed to have been transferred to the customer when the performance obligation is fulfilled, usually at the time of delivery, at the net sales price (transaction price) and each of the criteria under ASC 606 have been met. Contract terms may require the Company to deliver the finished goods to the customers’ location or the customer may pick up the finished goods at the Company’s factory. International sales are recognized when shipment clears customs and leaves the port.

The Company started adoption of ASC 606 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, using the transition method of Modified-Retrospective Method (“MRM”). The adoption of ASC 606 had no impact on the Company’s beginning balance of retained earnings.

The Company’s contracts are predominantly short-term in nature with a contract term of one year or less. For those contracts, the Company has utilized the practical expedient in ASC Topic 606 exempting the Company from disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less. Receivables are recorded when the Company has an unconditional right to consideration.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold consists primarily of material costs, freight charges, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, warehousing costs, internal transfer costs, wages, employee compensation, amortization, depreciation and related costs, which are directly attributable to the production of products. Write-down of inventory to lower of cost or market is also recorded in cost of goods sold.

Selling Expenses

Selling expenses include operating expenses such as payroll and traveling and transportation expenses.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses include management and office salaries and employee benefits, deprecation for office facility and office equipment, travel and entertainment, legal and accounting, consulting fees and other office expenses.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and totaled approximately $1,150,779 and $1,190,476 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Research and development costs are incurred on a project specific basis.

Retirement Benefits

Retirement benefits in the form of contributions under defined contribution retirement plans to the relevant authorities are charged to operations as incurred. Retirement benefits of $98,563 and $120,306 were charged to operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes following the liability method pursuant to FASB ASC 740 “Income Taxes”. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the period in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rate is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company also follows FASB ASC 740, which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. The Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. ASC 740 also provides guidance on recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures. As of June 30, 2019, the Company did not have a liability for unrecognized tax benefits. It is unlikely that the amount of liability for unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change over the next 12 months. It is the Company’s policy to include penalties and interest expense related to income taxes as a component of other expense and interest expense, respectively, as necessary. The Company’s historical tax years will always remain open for examination by the local authorities.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

Value-Added Tax

Enterprises or individuals, who sell commodities, engage in repair and maintenance or import or export goods in the PRC are subject to a value added tax in accordance with Chinese Laws. The VAT standard rate had been 17% of the gross sale price until April 30, 2018, after which date the rate was reduced to 16%. VAT rate was further reduced to 13% starting from April 1, 2019. A credit is available whereby VAT paid on the purchases of semi-finished products or raw materials used in the production of the Company’s finished products can be used to offset the VAT due on the sales of the finished products.

Statutory Reserve

In accordance with the PRC Regulations on Enterprises with Foreign Investment, an enterprise established in the PRC with foreign investment is required to provide for certain statutory reserves, namely (i) General Reserve Fund, (ii) Enterprise Expansion Fund and (iii) Staff Welfare and Bonus Fund, which are appropriated from net profit as reported in the enterprise’s PRC statutory accounts. A wholly-owned foreign enterprise is required to allocate at least 10% of its annual after-tax profit to the General Reserve Fund until the balance of such fund has reached 50% of its respective registered capital. A non-wholly-owned foreign invested enterprise is permitted to provide for the above allocation at the discretion of its board of directors. Appropriations to the Enterprise Expansion Fund and Staff Welfare and Bonus Fund are at the discretion of the board of directors for all foreign invested enterprises. The aforementioned reserves can only be used for specific purposes and are not distributable as cash dividends.

Comprehensive Income (loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity during the year from transactions and other events, excluding the changes resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners, and is not included in the computation of income tax expense or benefit. Accumulated comprehensive income (loss) consists of foreign currency translation. The Company presents comprehensive income (loss) in accordance with ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income”. ASC Topic 220 states that all items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as components of comprehensive income (loss) be reported in the consolidated financial statements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For financial reporting purposes, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains no bank account in the United States of America. The Company maintains its bank accounts in China. Balances at financial institutions or state-owned banks within China are not covered by insurance. However, the Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risks on its cash in bank accounts.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash represents amounts held by a bank as security for bank acceptance notes and therefore is not available for the Company’s use until such time as the bank acceptance notes have been fulfilled or expired, normally within a twelve-month period.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company applies the provisions of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, to the financial instruments that are required to be carried at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company uses a three-tier fair

F-47

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

value hierarchy based upon observable and non-observable inputs that prioritizes the information used to develop our assumptions regarding fair value. Fair value measurements are separately disclosed by level within the fair value hierarchy.

•        Level 1 — defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

•        Level 2 — defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets, that are either directly or indirectly observable; and

•        Level 3 — defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

The company’s financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable, other payables and accrued liabilities, short-term bank loans, and bond payable.

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and other current assets and liabilities approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these items. The estimated fair values of short-term bank loans were not materially different from their carrying value as presented due to the short maturities and that the interest rates on the borrowing approximate those that would have been available for loans of similar remaining maturity and risk profile. As the carrying amounts are reasonable estimates of the fair value, these financial instruments are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Earnings per share

The Company calculates earnings per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential ordinary shares equivalents had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are carried at net realizable value. The Company reviews its accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes general and specific allowances when there is doubt as to the collectability of individual balances. In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including the age of the balance, customer’s historical payment history, its current creditworthiness and current economic trends. Accounts are written off after exhaustive efforts at collection. If accounts receivable are to be provided for, or written off, they would be recognized in the consolidated statement of operations within operating expenses. Balance of allowance of doubtful accounts was $1,018,588 and $906,138 as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, which is based on estimated selling prices less any further costs expected to be incurred for completion and disposal. Cost of raw materials is calculated using the weighted average method and is based on purchase cost. Work-in-progress and finished goods costs are determined using the weighted average method and comprise direct materials, direct labor and an appropriate proportion of overhead. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had reserves for inventories of $193,906 and $178,107, respectively.

Advance to Suppliers

Advance to suppliers represents interest-free cash paid in advance to suppliers for purchases of parts and/or raw materials. The balance of advance to suppliers was $49,345 as of June 30, 2019, of which $47,085 aged within one

F-48

year and $1,616 between one and two years. The balance of advance to suppliers was $32,878 as of December 31, 2018, of which $31,655 aged within one year and $578 between one and two years.

Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation, and include expenditure that substantially increases the useful lives of existing assets.

Depreciation is provided over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives are as follows:

Plant, buildings and improvements

 

20 years

Machinery and equipment

 

2 ~ 10 years

Motor vehicles

 

4 years

Office Equipment

 

3 ~ 5 years

Fixed Assets decoration

 

5 years

When assets are sold or retired, their costs and accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the consolidated financial statements and any gain or loss resulting from their disposal is recognized in the period of disposition as an element of other income. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to income as incurred, whereas significant renewals and betterments are capitalized.

Land Use Rights

According to the PRC laws, the government owns all the land in the PRC. Companies or individuals are authorized to possess and use the land only through land use rights granted by the Chinese government. The land use rights granted to the Company are being amortized using the straight-line method over the lease term of fifty years.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment periodically whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their related carrying amounts may not be recoverable in accordance with FASB ASC 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment”.

In evaluating long-lived assets for recoverability, the Company uses its best estimate of future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and eventual disposition in accordance with FASB ASC 360-10-15. To the extent that estimated future, undiscounted cash inflows attributable to the asset, less estimated future, undiscounted cash outflows, are less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the difference between the carrying value of such asset and its fair value. Assets to be disposed of and for which there is a committed plan of disposal, whether through sale or abandonment, are reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell.

No impairment loss is subsequently reversed even if facts and circumstances indicate recovery. There was no impairment loss recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

Segments and Related Information

ASC 280-10-50, “Operating Segments”, define the characteristics of an operating segment as a) being engaged in business activity from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, b) being reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) for decisions about resources to be allocated and assess its performance and c) having discrete financial information. Although the Company indeed looks at its products to analyze the nature of its revenues, other financial information, such as certain costs and expenses and net income are not captured or analyzed by these categories. Therefore, discrete financial information is not available by product line and the Company has

F-49

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

no CODM to make resource allocation decisions or assess the performance of the business based on these categories, but rather in the aggregate. Based on this, management believes that the Company operates in one business segment.

In the analysis of product lines as potential operating segments, management also considered ASC 280-10-50-11, “Aggregation Criteria”, which allows for the aggregation of operating segments if the segments have similar economic characteristics and if the segments are similar in each of the following areas:

•        the nature of the products and services;

•        the nature of the production processes;

•        the type or class of customer for their products and services;

•        the methods used to distribute their products or provide their services; and

•        the nature of the regulatory environment, if applicable.

The Company is engaged in the business of manufacturing and selling various transmission boxes. The Company’s manufacturing process is essentially the same for the entire Company and is performed in-house at the Company’s facilities in China. The Company’s customers primarily consist of entities in the automotive, construction machinery or warehousing equipment industries. The distribution of the Company’s products is consistent across the entire Company. In addition, the economic characteristics of each customer arrangement are similar in that the Company maintains policies at the corporate level.

Related Party

In general, related parties exist when there is a relationship that offers the potential for transactions at less than arm’s-length, favorable treatment, or the ability to influence the outcome of events different from that which might result in the absence of that relationship. A related party may be any of the following: a) an affiliate, which is a party that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with another party; b) a principle owner, owner of record or known beneficial owner of more than 10% of the voting interest of an entity; c) management, which are persons having responsibility for achieving objectives of the entity and requisite authority to make decision; d) immediate family of management or principal owners; e) a parent company and its subsidiaries; and f) other parties that have ability to significant influence the management or operating policies of the entity.

Economic and Political Risks

The Company’s operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC economy.

The Company’s operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

Exchange Risk

The Company cannot guarantee that the current exchange rate will remain steady. Therefore, there is a possibility that the Company could post the same amount of profit for two comparable periods and yet, because of a fluctuating exchange rates, record higher or lower profit depending on exchange rate of PRC Renminbi (RMB) converted to U.S. dollars on the relevant dates. The exchange rate could fluctuate depending on changes in the political and economic environment without notice.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Recent accounting pronouncements that the Company has adopted or may be required to adopt in the future are summarized below:

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, to require financial assets carried at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected based on historical experience, current conditions and forecasts. Subsequently, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments, in April 2019, to clarify that receivables arising from operating leases are within the scope of lease accounting standards. The ASUs are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. Adoption of the ASUs is modified Caretrospective. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers Other than Inventory, which requires companies to recognize the income-tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs, rather than when the asset has been sold to an outside party. The Company started adoption of ASU 2016-16 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017.The impact of adoption on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements for any period presented is not material.

In February 2016, the FASB established Topic 842, Leases, by issuing Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize leases on-balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842; ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases; and ASU No. 2018-11, Targeted Improvements. The new standard establishes a right-of-use model (“ROU”) that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement. Operating leases result in straight-line expense (similar to operating leases under the prior accounting standard) while finance leases result in a front-loaded expense pattern (similar to capital leases under the prior accounting standard). The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years for a public business entity. Early application of the amendments in this Update is permitted for all entities. As of December 31, 2018, the Company concluded its nominal “sale-leaseback” transaction does not qualify for sale-leaseback accounting in accordance with ASC 840-40-25-11 and shall record under the lease financing method. Under the lease financing method, the assets remain on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and the proceeds from the transactions are recorded as a financing liability. The Company started adoption of ASU 2016-02 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Under ASC 842, the Company concluded the transactions do not qualify for the sale-leaseback accounting in accordance with ASC 842-40-25-5 and shall not derecognize the transferred asset and shall account for any amounts received as a financial liability. Thus, the impact of adoption on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements for any period presented is not material.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04 (Topic 350) Intangibles — Goodwill and Other: Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. Under the amended guidance, a goodwill impairment charge will now be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. This ASU will be applied on a prospective basis and is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for any impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. The Company does not expect the adoption will have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13 Disclosure Framework — Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which eliminates, adds, and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements under ASC 820. This ASU is to be applied on a prospective basis for certain modified or new disclosure requirements, and all other amendments in the standard are to be applied on a retrospective basis. The new standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

On December 19, 2018, Zhejiang Zhongchai conducted a “sale and leaseback” transaction with Shanghai Dingce Financial Leasing Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Dingce”), under which Zhongchai nominally ‘sold’ a set of manufacturing equipment (with original value of RMB54,946,372) to Dingce for RMB25,000,000, and hence leased the equipment back. Simultaneously Zhejiang Zhongchai pledged the leased equipment with Dingce as a security. Term of the lease is 36 months starting from January 3, 2019 to January 2, 2022, and total rental payment under the lease contract adds up to RMB28,179,685. The two shareholders of Zhejiang Zhongchai, namely Zhongchai Holding and Jiuxin, respectively, pledged 8.947% and 1.053% of their ownership interest in Zhejiang Zhongchai with Dingce on January 2, 2019 and December 21, 2018, respectively, as security for the lease transaction, representing US$2,560,000 and $301,294, respectively, based on par value of registered capital of Zhejiang Zhongchai.

The set of manufacturing equipment is currently being used by the Company for its production purposes. As of December 31, 2018, the Company concluded this transaction does not qualify for sale-leaseback accounting in accordance with ASC 840-40-25-11 and shall record under the lease financing method. Under the lease financing method, the assets remain on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and the proceeds from the transactions are recorded as a financing liability. The Company adopted ASC 842 on January 1, 2019 and concluded this transaction does not qualify for the sale-leaseback accounting in accordance with ASC 842-40-25-5 and not derecognize the transferred asset and shall account for any amounts received as a financial liability.

On April 24, 2019, Zhejiang Zhongchai signed a Pledge Contract with Donghai Financing Lease Co., Ltd. (“Donghai Lease”), pledging its equipment including the general assembly line and the differential assembly line as security for the total exposure under a Financing Lease Contract capped at RMB 16.80 million between Zhejiang

NOTE 14 — INCOME TAXES

Hong Kong SAR

Zhongchai Holding (Hong Kong) Limited is registered in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China and is subject to 16.5% income tax for locally earned income, but is exempt from income tax for income or gains earned outside of Hong Kong. The Company had no sales revenue in Hong Kong for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

The PRC

According to the relevant laws and regulations in the PRC, foreign invested enterprises established prior to January 1, 2008 are entitled to full exemption from income tax for two years beginning with the first year in which such enterprise is profitable and a 50% income tax reduction for the subsequent three years. Zhejiang Zhongchai Machinery Co., Ltd. was entitled to an exemption during the two years ended December 31, 2007 and was subject to a 50% income tax reduction during the three years ended December 31, 2010. Starting from January 1, 2013, Zhejiang Zhongchai has been enjoying a tax rate of 15% as it is considered as a High and New Technology Enterprise (“HNTE”) by the PRC government, which may be renewable every three years if Zhejiang Zhongchai continues to obtain this award. Between January 1, 2016 and December 31, 2018, Zhejiang Zhongchai continued enjoying this preferential tax rate. Between January 1, 2016 and December 31, 2018, Zhejiang Zhongchai continued enjoying this preferential tax rate. Zhejiang Zhongchai is under the re-application for the HNTE status. Upon approval, Zhejiang Zhongchai would continue enjoying the preferential tax rate of 15% for the years of 2019 through 2021.

Shengte, the wholly owned subsidiary, and Hengyu, the 62.5% owned subsidiary, respectively, of Zhejiang Zhongchai incorporated in the PRC, are both imposed at the standard income tax rate of 25%.

Enterprises established under the laws of foreign countries or regions and whose “place of effective management” is located within the PRC territory are considered PRC resident enterprises and subject to the PRC income tax at the rate of 25% on worldwide income. The definition of “place of effective management” refers to an establishment that exercises, in substance, overall management and control over the production and business, personnel, accounting, properties, etc. of an enterprise. As of June 30, 2019 no detailed interpretation or guidance has been issued to define

F-56

ZHONGCHAI HOLDING (HONG KONG) LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 14 — INCOME TAXES (cont.)

“place of effective management”. Furthermore, as of June 30, 2019, the administrative practice associated with interpreting and applying the concept of “place of effective management” is unclear. If the Company’s non-PRC incorporated entities are deemed PRC tax residents, such entities would be subject to PRC tax The Company has analyzed the applicability of this law, as of June 30, 2019, and the Company has not accrued for PRC tax on such basis. The Company will continue to monitor changes in the interpretation or guidance of this law.

PRC tax law also imposes a 10% withholding income tax, subject to reduction based on tax treaty where applicable, for dividends distributed by a foreign invested enterprise to its immediate holding company outside China. Such dividends were exempted from PRC tax under the previous income tax law and regulations. The foreign invested enterprise is subject to the withholding tax starting from January 1, 2008.

The Company adopted the guidance in ASC 740 related to uncertain tax positions. The guidance addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under ASC 740, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. ASC 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures.

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company did not have any liability for unrecognized tax benefits, and no interest related to unrecognized tax benefits and penalties as income tax expense was recognized for these years.

The Company files income tax returns with the annual settlement and payment of enterprise income tax system of PRC and is subject to examinations by the tax authorities in PRC for years after the establishment.

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company was not aware of any pending income tax examinations by PRC tax authorities and no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions was recognized.

The tax years from 2015 to 2018 are subject to examination by the tax authorities according to the tax regulations of PRC. With few exceptions, as of June 30, 2019, the Company is no longer subject to examinations by PRC tax authorities for years before 2015.

As of June 30, 2019, there was approximately US$7.3 million retained earnings at the Company’s PRC subsidiary, Zhejiang Zhongchai’s account. Given the Company’s plan to expand into a new business line of automatic guided vehicles (“AGVs”) in near future, Zhejiang Zhongchai is prepared to be the future supplier of transmission boxes for the AGVs, and the board of Zhejiang Zhongchai does not intend to further repatriate these earnings to the Hong Kong parent company, Zhongchai Holding, but instead to reinvest into research and development, moldings, production line and fittings and tools to produce transmission boxes for AGVs, total expenditure of which estimated at approximately US$20 million. Zhejiang Zhongchai’s two subsidiaries in PRC, Shengte and Hengyu, had retained earnings of approximately US$0.5 million and accumulated deficits of US$0.03 million, respectively, in their balance sheets as of June 30, 2019. Neither do they intend to distribute any current or future earnings, if any. Accordingly, the Company did not provide for the 10% PRC withholding tax on retained earnings as of June 30, 2019, which would be imposed on dividends distributed to the holding company outside China.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Shareholders and Board of Directors

Zhongchai Holding (Hong Kong) Limited

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Zhongchai Holding (Hong Kong) Limited and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2018, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2018, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Zhongchai Holding (Hong Kong) Limited and its subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated and combined financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Non-controlling Interest

Non-controlling interests in the Company’s subsidiaries are recorded in accordance with the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification 810 Consolidation (“ASC 810”) and are reported as a component of equity, separate from the parent’s equity. Purchase or sale of equity interests that do not result in a change of control are accounted for as equity transactions. Results of operations attributable to the non-controlling interest are included in our consolidated results of operations and, upon loss of control, the interest sold, as well as interest retained, if any, will be reported at fair value with any gain or loss recognized in earnings.

Foreign Currency Translation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars (“US$” or “$”). The functional currency of the Company is Renminbi (“RMB”). The consolidated financial statements are translated into United States dollars from RMB at year-end exchange rates as to assets and liabilities and average exchange rates as to revenues and expenses. Capital accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred. The resulting transaction adjustments are recorded as a component of shareholders’ equity. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in net income.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2018 AND 2017

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US$ at the rates used in translation.

Revenue Recognition

In accordance with the ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, the Company recognizes revenues when goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In determining when and how revenues are recognized from contracts with customers, the Company performs the following five-step analysis: (i) identification of contract with customer; (ii) determination of performance obligations; (iii) measurement of the transaction price; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (v) recognition of revenues when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation. The Company derives revenues from the processing, distribution and sale of own products. The Company recognizes its revenues net of value-added taxes (“VAT”). The Company is subject to VAT which had been levied at the rate of 17% on the invoiced value of sales until April 30, 2018, after which date the rate was reduced to 16%. VAT rate was further reduced to 13% starting from April 1, 2019. Output VAT is borne by customers in addition to the invoiced value of sales and input VAT is borne by the Company in addition to the invoiced value of purchases to the extent not refunded for export sales.

Revenues are recognized at a point in time once the Company has determined that the customer has obtained control over the product. Control is typically deemed to have been transferred to the customer when the performance obligation is fulfilled, usually at the time of delivery, at the net sales price (transaction price) and each of the criteria under ASC 606 have been met. Contract terms may require the Company to deliver the finished goods to the customers’ location or the customer may pick up the finished goods at the Company’s factory. International sales are recognized when shipment clears customs and leaves the port.

The Company started adoption of ASC 606 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, using the transition method of Modified-Retrospective Method (“MRM”). The adoption of ASC 606 had no impact on the Company’s beginning balance of retained earnings.

The Company’s contracts are predominantly short-term in nature with a contract term of one year or less. For those contracts, the Company has utilized the practical expedient in ASC Topic 606 exempting the Company from disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less. Receivables are recorded when the Company has an unconditional right to consideration.

Contracts do not offer any chargeback or price protection. The Company experienced no product returns and recorded no reserve for sales returns for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Selling Expenses

Selling expenses include operating expenses such as payroll and traveling and transportation expenses.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses include management and office salaries and employee benefits, deprecation for office facility and office equipment, travel and entertainment, legal and accounting, consulting fees and other office expenses.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and totaled approximately $2,512,403and $1,838,032 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Research and development costs are incurred on a project specific basis.

Retirement Benefits

Retirement benefits in the form of contributions under defined contribution retirement plans to the relevant authorities are charged to operations as incurred. Retirement benefits of $226,759and $166,299 were charged to operations for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes following the liability method pursuant to FASB ASC 740 “Income Taxes”. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the period in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rate is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company also follows FASB ASC 740, which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. The Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. ASC 740 also provides guidance on recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures. As of December 31, 2018, the Company did not have a liability for unrecognized tax benefits. It is unlikely that the amount of liability for unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change over the next 12 months. It is the Company’s policy to include penalties and interest expense related to income taxes as a component of other expense and interest expense, respectively, as necessary. The Company’s historical tax years will always remain open for examination by the local authorities.

Value-Added Tax

Enterprises or individuals, who sell commodities, engage in repair and maintenance or import or export goods in the PRC are subject to a value added tax in accordance with Chinese Laws. The VAT standard rate had been 17% of the gross sale price until April 30, 2018, after which date the rate was reduced to 16%. VAT rate was further reduced to 13% starting from April 1, 2019. A credit is available whereby VAT paid on the purchases of semi-finished products or raw materials used in the production of the Company’s finished products can be used to offset the VAT due on the sales of the finished products.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

Statutory Reserve

In accordance with the PRC Regulations on Enterprises with Foreign Investment, an enterprise established in the PRC with foreign investment is required to provide for certain statutory reserves, namely (i) General Reserve Fund, (ii) Enterprise Expansion Fund and (iii) Staff Welfare and Bonus Fund, which are appropriated from net profit as reported in the enterprise’s PRC statutory accounts. A wholly-owned foreign enterprise is required to allocate at least 10% of its annual after-tax profit to the General Reserve Fund until the balance of such fund has reached 50% of its respective registered capital. A non-wholly-owned foreign invested enterprise is permitted to provide for the above allocation at the discretion of its board of directors. Appropriations to the Enterprise Expansion Fund and Staff Welfare and Bonus Fund are at the discretion of the board of directors for all foreign invested enterprises. The aforementioned reserves can only be used for specific purposes and are not distributable as cash dividends.

Comprehensive Income (loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity during the year from transactions and other events, excluding the changes resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners, and is not included in the computation of income tax expense or benefit. Accumulated comprehensive income (loss) consists of foreign currency translation. The Company presents comprehensive income (loss) in accordance with ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income”. ASC Topic 220 states that all items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as components of comprehensive income (loss) be reported in the consolidated financial statements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For financial reporting purposes, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains no bank account in the United States of America. The Company maintains its bank accounts in China. Balances at financial institutions or state-owned banks within China are not covered by insurance. However, the Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risks on its cash in bank accounts.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash represents amounts held by a bank as security for bank acceptance notes and therefore is not available for the Company’s use until such time as the bank acceptance notes have been fulfilled or expired, normally within a twelve month period.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company applies the provisions of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, to the financial instruments that are required to be carried at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company uses a three-tier fair value hierarchy based upon observable and non-observable inputs that prioritizes the information used to develop our assumptions regarding fair value. Fair value measurements are separately disclosed by level within the fair value hierarchy.

•        Level 1 — defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

•        Level 2 — defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets, that are either directly or indirectly observable; and

•        Level 3 — defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2018 AND 2017

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

The company’s financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable, other payables and accrued liabilities, short-term bank loans, and bond payable.

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and other current assets and liabilities approximate fair value because of the short term nature of these items. The estimated fair values of short-term bank loans were not materially different from their carrying value as presented due to the short maturities and that the interest rates on the borrowing approximate those that would have been available for loans of similar remaining maturity and risk profile. As the carrying amounts are reasonable estimates of the fair value, these financial instruments are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company identified the fair market value of such equity interests as Level 3 instruments due to the fact that little or no market data exists, thus the company develop its own assumptions. Income approach — in this approach, the discounted cash flow method was used to capture the present value of the expected future economic cash outflows to be derived, based on an appropriate discount rate. Also see note 24.

Earnings per share

The Company calculates earnings per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential ordinary shares equivalents had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are carried at net realizable value. The Company reviews its accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes general and specific allowances when there is doubt as to the collectability of individual balances. In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including the age of the balance, customer’s historical payment history, its current credit-worthiness and current economic trends. Accounts are written off after exhaustive efforts at collection. If accounts receivable are to be provided for, or written off, they would be recognized in the consolidated statement of operations within operating expenses. Balance of allowance of doubtful accounts was $906,138 and $651,248 at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, which is based on estimated selling prices less any further costs expected to be incurred for completion and disposal. Cost of raw materials is calculated using the weighted average method and is based on purchase cost. Work-in-progress and finished goods costs are determined using the weighted average method and comprise direct materials, direct labor and an appropriate proportion of overhead. At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had reserves for inventories of $178,107and $77,832, respectively.

Advance to Suppliers

Advance to suppliers represents interest-free cash paid in advance to suppliers for purchases of parts and/or raw materials. The balance of advance to suppliers was $32,878 as of December 31, 2018, of which $31,655 aged within one year and $578 between one and two years. The balance of advance to suppliers was $58,371 as of December 31, 2017, of which $57,693 aged within one year and $537 between one and two years.

Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation, and include expenditure that substantially increases the useful lives of existing assets.

Depreciation is provided over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives are as follows:

Plant, buildings and improvements

 

20 years

Machinery and equipment

 

2 ~ 10 years

Motor vehicles

 

4 years

Office Equipment

 

3 ~ 5 years

Fixed Assets decoration

 

5 years

When assets are sold or retired, their costs and accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the consolidated financial statements and any gain or loss resulting from their disposal is recognized in the period of disposition as an element of other income. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to income as incurred, whereas significant renewals and betterments are capitalized.

Land Use Rights

According to the PRC laws, the government owns all the land in the PRC. Companies or individuals are authorized to possess and use the land only through land use rights granted by the Chinese government. The land use rights granted to the Company are being amortized using the straight-line method over the lease term of fifty years.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment periodically whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their related carrying amounts may not be recoverable in accordance with FASB ASC 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment”.

In evaluating long-lived assets for recoverability, the Company uses its best estimate of future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and eventual disposition in accordance with FASB ASC 360-10-15. To the extent that estimated future, undiscounted cash inflows attributable to the asset, less estimated future, undiscounted cash outflows, are less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the difference between the carrying value of such asset and its fair value. Assets to be disposed of and for which there is a committed plan of disposal, whether through sale or abandonment, are reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell.

No impairment loss is subsequently reversed even if facts and circumstances indicate recovery. There was no impairment loss recognized for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.

Segments and Related Information

ASC 280-10-50, “Operating Segments”, define the characteristics of an operating segment as a) being engaged in business activity from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, b) being reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) for decisions about resources to be allocated and assess its performance and c) having discrete financial information. Although the Company indeed looks at its products to analyze the nature of its revenues, other financial information, such as certain costs and expenses and net income are not captured or analyzed by these categories. Therefore, discrete financial information is not available by product line and the Company has no CODM to make resource allocation decisions or assess the performance of the business based on these categories, but rather in the aggregate. Based on this, management believes that the Company operates in one business segment.

In the analysis of product lines as potential operating segments, management also considered ASC 280-10-50-11, “Aggregation Criteria”, which allows for the aggregation of operating segments if the segments have similar economic characteristics and if the segments are similar in each of the following areas:

•        the nature of the products and services;

•        the nature of the production processes;

•        the type or class of customer for their products and services;

•        the methods used to distribute their products or provide their services; and

•        the nature of the regulatory environment, if applicable.

The Company is engaged in the business of manufacturing and selling various transmission boxes. The Company’s manufacturing process is essentially the same for the entire Company and is performed in-house at the Company’s facilities in China. The Company’s customers primarily consist of entities in the automotive, construction machinery or warehousing equipment industries. The distribution of the Company’s products is consistent across the entire Company. In addition, the economic characteristics of each customer arrangement are similar in that the Company maintains policies at the corporate level.

Related Party

In general, related parties exist when there is a relationship that offers the potential for transactions at less than arm’s-length, favorable treatment, or the ability to influence the outcome of events different from that which might result in the absence of that relationship. A related party may be any of the following: a) an affiliate, which is a party that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with another party; b) a principle owner, owner of record or known beneficial owner of more than 10% of the voting interest of an entity; c) management, which are persons having responsibility for achieving objectives of the entity and requisite authority to make decision; d) immediate family of management or principal owners; e) a parent company and its subsidiaries; and f) other parties that have ability to significant influence the management or operating policies of the entity.

Economic and Political Risks

The Company’s operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC economy.

The Company’s operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

Exchange Risk

The Company cannot guarantee that the current exchange rate will remain steady. Therefore, there is a possibility that the Company could post the same amount of profit for two comparable periods and yet, because of a fluctuating exchange rates, record higher or lower profit depending on exchange rate of PRC Renminbi (RMB) converted to U.S. dollars on the relevant dates. The exchange rate could fluctuate depending on changes in the political and economic environment without notice.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Recent accounting pronouncements that the Company has adopted or may be required to adopt in the future are summarized below:

In May 2014, the FASB issued a new standard on revenue recognition related to contracts with customers. This standard supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance and involves a five-step principles-based approach to recognizing revenues. The new model requires revenue recognition to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration a company expects to receive. The new standard also requires

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

additional qualitative and quantitative about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments made in applying the revenue guidance, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. The adoption of the new standard had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, “Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes.” This ASU amends existing guidance to require that deferred income tax assets and liabilities be classified as non-current in a classified balance sheet, and eliminates the prior guidance which required an entity to separate deferred tax assets and liabilities into a current amount and a non-current amount in a classified balance sheet. The Company started adoption of ASU 2015-17 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2015-17 does not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13,” Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, to require financial assets carried at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected based on historical experience, current conditions and forecasts. Subsequently, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments, in April 2019. to clarify that receivables arising from operating leases are within the scope of lease accounting standards. The ASUs are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. Adoption of the ASUs is modified retrospective. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers Other than Inventory, which requires companies to recognize the income-tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs, rather than when the asset has been sold to an outside party. The Company started adoption of ASU 2016-16 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017.The impact of adoption on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements for any period presented is not material.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) - Restricted Cash,” (“ASU 2016-18”). This ASU requires a statement of cash flows to explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The Company started adoption of ASU 2016-18 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017. The impact of adoption on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for any period presented is not material.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which revises the definition of a business and provides new guidance in evaluating when a set of transferred assets and activities is a business. The Company started adoption of ASU 2017-01 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017. The impact of adoption on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for any period presented is not material.

In February 2016, the FASB established Topic 842, Leases, by issuing Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize leases on-balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842; ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases; and ASU No. 2018-11, Targeted Improvements. The new standard establishes a right-of-use model (ROU) that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard is effective for us on January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We expect to adopt the new standard on its effective date. A modified retrospective transition approach is required, applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. An entity may choose to use either

(1) its effective date or (2) the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements as its date of initial application. If an entity chooses the second option, the transition requirements for existing leases also apply to leases entered into between the date of initial application and the effective date. The entity must also recast its comparative period financial statements and provide the disclosures required by the new standard for the comparative periods. We expect to adopt the new standard on January 1, 2019 and use the effective date as our date of initial application. Consequently, financial information will not be updated and the disclosures required under the new standard will not be provided for dates and periods before January 1, 2019.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04 (Topic 350) Intangibles — Goodwill and Other: Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. Under the amended guidance, a goodwill impairment charge will now be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. This ASU will be applied on a prospective basis and is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for any impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. The Company does not expect the adoption will have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13 Disclosure Framework — Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which eliminates, adds, and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements under ASC 820. This ASU is to be applied on a prospective basis for certain modified or new disclosure requirements, and all other amendments in the standard are to be applied on a retrospective basis. The new standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Starting from January 1, 2013, Zhejiang Zhongchai has been enjoying a tax rate of 15% as it is considered as a High and New Technology Enterprise by the PRC government, which may be renewable every three years if Zhejiang Zhongchai continues to obtain this award. Between January 1, 2016 and December 31, 2018, the company continue enjoyed this preferential tax rate. Between January 1, 2016 and December 31, 2018, Zhejiang Zhongchai continued enjoying this preferential tax rate.

Shengte, the wholly owned subsidiary, and Hengyu, the 62.5% owned subsidiary, respectively, of Zhejiang Zhongchai incorporated in the PRC, are both imposed at the standard income tax rate of 25%.

Enterprises established under the laws of foreign countries or regions and whose “place of effective management” is located within the PRC territory are considered PRC resident enterprises and subject to the PRC income tax at the rate of 25% on worldwide income. The definition of “place of effective management” refers to an establishment that exercises, in substance, overall management and control over the production and business, personnel, accounting, properties, etc. of an enterprise. As of December 31, 2018 no detailed interpretation or guidance has been issued to define “place of effective management”. Furthermore, as of December 31, 2018, the administrative practice associated with interpreting and applying the concept of “place of effective management” is unclear. If the Company’s non-PRC incorporated entities are deemed PRC tax residents, such entities would be subject to PRC tax The Company has analyzed the applicability of this law, as of December 31, 2018, and the Company has not accrued for PRC tax on such basis. The Company will continue to monitor changes in the interpretation or guidance of this law.

PRC tax law also imposes a 10% withholding income tax, subject to reduction based on tax treaty where applicable, for dividends distributed by a foreign invested enterprise to its immediate holding company outside China. Such dividends were exempted from PRC tax under the previous income tax law and regulations. The foreign invested enterprise is subject to the withholding tax starting from January 1, 2008.

The Company adopted the guidance in ASC 740 related to uncertain tax positions. The guidance addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under ASC 740, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. ASC 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures.

As of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company did not have any liability for unrecognized tax benefits, and no interest related to unrecognized tax benefits and penalties as income tax expense was recognized for these years.

NOTE 20 — INCOME TAXES (cont.)

The Company files income tax returns with the annual settlement and payment of enterprise income tax system of PRC and is subject to examinations by the tax authorities in PRC for years after the establishment.

As of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company was not aware of any pending income tax examinations by PRC tax authorities and no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions was recognized.

The tax years for 2015, 2016, and 2017 are subject to examination by the tax authorities according to the tax regulations of PRC. With few exceptions, as of December 31, 2018, the Company is no longer subject to examinations by PRC tax authorities for years before 2015.

As of December 31, 2018, there was approximately US$4.6 million retained earnings at the Company’s PRC subsidiary, Zhejiang Zhongchai’s account. Given the Company’s plan to expand into a new business line of automatic guided vehicles (“AGVs”) in near future, Zhejiang Zhongchai is prepared to be the future supplier of transmission boxes for the AGVs, and the board of Zhejiang Zhongchai does not intend to further repatriate these earnings to the Hong Kong parent company, Zhongchai Holding, but instead to reinvest into research and development, moldings, production line and fittings and tools to produce transmission boxes for AGVs, total expenditure of which estimated at approximately US$20 million. Zhejiang Zhongchai’s two subsidiaries in PRC, Shengte and Hengyu, had retained earnings of approximately US$0.5 million and accumulated loss of US$0.03 million, respectively, in their balance sheets as of December 31, 2018. Neither do they intend to distribute any current or future earnings, if any. Accordingly, the Company did not provide for the 10% PRC withholding tax on retained earnings as of December 31, 2018, which would be imposed on dividends distributed to the holding company outside China.

NOTE 24 — EQUITY INCENTIVES

Zhongchai Holding paid RMB31.6 million (approximately $4.7 million) to Mr. Mengxing He, general manager of Zhejiang Zhongchai as a reward for his past performance and incentive for his continuous contribution to Zhejiang Zhongchai. Mr. He then invested these funds in Zhejiang Zhongchai through Xinchang County Jiuxin Investment Management Partnership (LP), an entity that Mr. He controls, in exchange for 10.53% of the outstanding equity interests in Zhejiang Zhongchai. The difference between the fair market value of such equity interests in Zhejiang Zhongchai, or RMB52.7 million (approximately $7.8 million), and the actual consideration paid was charged as an equity incentive fee of approximately RMB21.1 million (approximately $3.1 million) in general and administrative expenses.

NOTE 24 — EQUITY INCENTIVES (cont.)

The Company identified the fair market value of such equity interests as Level 3 instruments due to the fact that little or no market data exists, thus the company develop its own assumptions. Income approach — in this approach, the discounted cash flow method was used to capture the present value of the expected future economic cash outflows to be derived, based on an appropriate discount rate.

The Purchaser shall cause the Proxy Documents to be disseminated as promptly as practicable after receiving clearance from the SEC to the Purchaser’s equity holders as and to the extent such dissemination is required by U.S. federal securities laws and the rules and regulations of the SEC and Nasdaq promulgated thereunder or otherwise (the “Federal Securities Laws”). The Company and the Seller shall promptly provide to the Purchaser such information concerning the Seller, the Target Companies and their respective businesses, operations, condition (financial or otherwise), assets, Liabilities, properties, officers, directors and employees as is either required by Federal Securities Laws or reasonably requested by the Purchaser for inclusion in the Proxy Documents. Subject to compliance by the Company and the Seller with the immediately preceding sentence with respect to the information provided or to be provided by or on behalf of them for inclusion in the Proxy Documents, the Purchaser shall cause the Proxy Documents to comply in all material respects with the Federal Securities Laws. The Purchaser shall provide copies of the proposed forms of the Proxy Documents (including, in each case, any amendments or supplements thereto) to the Company such that the Company and its Representatives are afforded a reasonable amount of time prior to the dissemination or filing thereof to review such material and comment thereon prior to such dissemination or filing, and the Purchaser shall reasonably consider in good faith any comments of the Company and its Representatives. The Purchaser and the Company and their respective Representatives shall respond promptly to any comments of the SEC or its staff with respect to the Redemption or the Proxy Documents and promptly correct any information provided by it for use in the Proxy Documents if and to the extent that such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect or as otherwise required by the Federal Securities Laws. The Purchaser shall amend or supplement the Proxy Documents and cause the Proxy Documents, as so amended or supplemented, to be filed with the SEC and to be disseminated to the holders of Purchaser Ordinary Shares, in each case as and to the extent required by the Federal Securities Laws and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Purchaser Organizational Documents. The Purchaser shall provide the Company and its Representatives with copies of any written comments, and shall inform them of any material oral comments, that the Purchaser or any of its Representatives receive from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Redemption or the Proxy Documents promptly after the receipt of such comments and shall give the Company a reasonable opportunity under

A-31

the circumstances to review and comment on any proposed written or material oral responses to such comments. The Company and the Seller shall, and shall cause each of the Target Companies to, make their respective directors, officers and employees, upon reasonable advance notice, available to the Purchaser and its Representatives in connection with the drafting of the public filings with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Proxy Documents, and responding in a timely manner to comments from the SEC. As promptly as reasonably practicable after the Proxy Statement has “cleared” comments from the SEC, the Purchaser shall cause the definitive Proxy Statement to be filed with the SEC and disseminated to the holders of Purchaser Ordinary Shares, and shall duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Shareholder Meeting.

(c)     If at any time prior to the Closing, any information relating to the Purchaser, on the one hand, or any of the Target Companies or Seller, on the other hand, or any of their respective Affiliates, businesses, operations, condition (financial or otherwise), assets, Liabilities, properties, officers, directors or employees, should be discovered by the Purchaser, on the one hand, or any of the Target Companies or Seller, on the other hand, that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Documents, so that such documents would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the Party which discovers such information shall promptly notify each other Party and shall cooperate with the other Parties to ensure that an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by law, disseminated to the Purchaser’s shareholders.

6.12     Public Announcements.

(a)     The Parties agree that no public release, filing or announcement concerning this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be issued by any Party or any of their Affiliates without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, the Company, the Purchaser Representative and the Seller (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except as such release or announcement may be required by applicable Law or the rules or regulations of any securities exchange, in which case the applicable Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to allow the other Parties reasonable time to comment on, and arrange for any required filing with respect to, such release or announcement in advance of such issuance.

In the event that this Agreement is terminated and the transactions contemplated hereby are not consummated, the Company and the Seller shall, and shall cause their respective Representatives to, promptly deliver to the Purchaser any and all copies (in whatever form or medium) of Purchaser Confidential Information and destroy all notes, memoranda, summaries, analyses, compilations and other writings related thereto or based thereon.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser and its Representatives shall be permitted to disclose any and all Company Confidential Information to the extent required by the Federal Securities Laws.

6.14     Litigation Support. Following the Closing, in the event that and for so long as any Party is actively contesting or defending against any third party or Governmental Authority Action in connection with any fact, situation, circumstance, status, condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action, failure to act or transaction that existing on or prior to the Closing Date involving the Purchaser or any Target Company, each of the other Parties will (i) reasonably cooperate with the contesting or defending party and its counsel in the contest or defense, (ii) make available its personnel at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice and (iii) provide (A) such testimony and (B) access to its non-privileged books and records as may be reasonably requested in connection with the contest or defense, at the sole cost and expense of the contesting or defending party (unless such contesting or defending party is entitled to indemnification therefor under Article VII in which case, the costs and expense will be borne by the parties as set forth in Article VII).

After the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries (including the Target Companies) to, until the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Closing Date, retain all books, records and other documents pertaining to the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries in existence on the Closing Date and make the same available for inspection and copying by the Purchaser Representative during normal business hours of the Company and its Subsidiaries, as applicable, upon reasonable request and upon reasonable notice. No such

A-33

books, records or documents shall be destroyed after the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Closing Date by the Purchaser or its Subsidiaries (including any Target Company) without first advising the Purchaser Representative in writing and giving the Purchaser Representative a reasonable opportunity to obtain possession thereof.

6.16     Post-Closing Board of Directors and Executive Officers.

(a)     The Parties shall take all necessary action, including causing the directors of the Purchaser to resign, so that effective as of the Closing, the Purchaser’s board of directors (the “Post-Closing Purchaser Board”) will consist of five (5) individuals. Effective upon, or immediately after, the Closing, the Parties shall take all necessary action to designate and appoint to the Post-Closing Purchaser Board (i) the one (1) person that is designated by the Purchaser prior to the Closing (the “Purchaser Director”), who shall qualify as an independent director under Nasdaq rules, (ii) the one (1) person that is designated by the Company prior to the Closing, and (iii) three (3) persons who are mutually agreed upon by the Purchaser and the Company prior to the Closing, at least two (2) of whom shall qualify as independent directors under Nasdaq rules.

The Seller hereby agrees to vote all equity securities of the Company and, after the Closing, the Purchaser consistent with the terms hereof.

(b)     The Parties shall take all action necessary, including causing the executive officers of the Purchaser to resign, so that the individuals serving as executive officers of the Purchaser immediately after the Closing will be the same individuals (in the same offices) as those of the Company immediately prior to the Closing.

During the Interim Period, the Purchaser will consult with the Company, and the Purchaser and the Company will adopt, effective as of the Closing, corporate and operational policies for the Purchaser, the Company and their respective Subsidiaries, including the Target Companies, appropriate for a company publicly traded in the United States with active business and operations in the industries and regions in which the Target Companies operate and contemplate operating as of the Closing.

Article VII
SURVIVAL AND INDEMNIFICATION

7.1     Survival.

(a)     All representations and warranties of the Company and the Seller contained in this Agreement (including all schedules and exhibits hereto and all certificates, documents, instruments and undertakings furnished pursuant to this Agreement) shall survive the Closing through and until and including the Expiration Date; provided, however, that (i) the representations and warranties contained in Sections 4.14 (Taxes and Returns), 4.19 (Benefit Plans), 4.20 (Environmental Matters), 4.33 (Information Supplied) and 5.10 (Information Supplied) shall survive until sixty (60) days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, and (ii) the representations and warranties contained in Sections 4.1 (Organization and Standing), 4.2 (Authorization; Binding Agreement), 4.3 (Capitalization), 4.4 (Subsidiaries), 4.31 (Finders and Brokers), 4.32 (Independent Investigation), 5.1 (Organization and Standing), 5.2 (Authorization; Binding Agreement), 5.3 (Ownership), 5.8 (Finders and Brokers) and 5.9 (Independent Investigation) will survive indefinitely (such representations and warranties referenced in clauses (i) and (ii), collectively, the “Special Representations”). Additionally, Fraud Claims against the Company or the Seller shall survive indefinitely. If written notice of a claim for breach of any representation or warranty has been given before the applicable date when such representation or warranty no longer survives in accordance with this Section 7.1(a), then the relevant representations and warranties shall survive as to such claim, until the claim has been finally resolved. All covenants, obligations and agreements of the Company and the Seller contained in this Agreement (including all schedules and exhibits hereto and all certificates, documents, instruments and undertakings furnished by the Company or the Seller pursuant to this Agreement), including any indemnification obligations, shall survive the Closing and continue until fully performed in accordance with their terms. For the avoidance of doubt, a claim for indemnification under any subsection of Section 7.2 other than clauses (a) or (b) thereof may be made at any time.

A-34

(b)     The representations and warranties of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Purchaser or the Purchaser Representative pursuant to this Agreement shall not survive the Closing, and from and after the Closing, the Purchaser, the Purchaser Representative or their respective Representatives shall not have any further obligations, nor shall any claim be asserted or action be brought against the Purchaser, the Purchaser Representative or their respective Representatives with respect thereto. The covenants and agreements made by the Purchaser and/or the Purchaser Representative in this Agreement or in any certificate or instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement, including any rights arising out of any breach of such covenants or agreements, shall not survive the Closing, except for those covenants and agreements contained herein and therein that by their terms apply or are to be performed in whole or in part after the Closing (which such covenants shall survive the Closing and continue until fully performed in accordance with their terms).

7.2     Indemnification by the Seller. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article VII, from and after the Closing, the Seller and its successors and assigns (each, with respect to any claim made under this Section 7.2, an “Indemnitor”) will jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Purchaser, the Purchaser Representative and their respective Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, managers, employees, successors and permitted assigns (each, with respect to any claim made under this Section 7.2, an “Indemnitee”) from and against any and all losses, Actions, Orders, Liabilities, damages (including consequential damages), diminution in value, Taxes, interest, penalties, Liens, amounts paid in settlement, costs and expenses (including reasonable expenses of investigation and court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), (any of the foregoing, a “Loss”) paid, suffered or incurred by, or imposed upon, any Indemnitee to the extent arising in whole or in part out of or resulting directly or indirectly from (whether or not involving a Third Party Claim): (a) the breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company or the Seller set forth in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered by the Company or the Seller pursuant to this Agreement; (b) the breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of the Seller, the Company or, after the Closing, the Purchaser, set forth in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered by the Company, the Seller or the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement; (c) any and all Liabilities for Taxes (i) in connection with or arising out of the Target Companies’ activities or business on or before the Closing Date or (ii) owing by any Person (other than a Target Company) for which a Target Company is liable where the Liability of the Target Company for such Taxes is attributable to an event or transaction occurring on or before the Closing Date; (d) any Action by Person(s) who were holders of equity securities of a Target Company, including options, warrants, convertible debt or other convertible securities or other rights to acquire equity securities of a Target Company, prior to the Closing arising out of the sale, purchase, termination, cancellation, expiration, redemption or conversion of any such securities; or (e) any Indebtedness and/or Transaction Expenses of the Target Companies as of the Reference Time which were not shown on the Company Financials. Without limiting any of the rights of the Purchaser or the Purchaser Representative hereunder, recourse by the Purchaser or the Purchaser Representative hereunder may be obtained against the Escrow Property. In connection therewith, the valuation of the Exchange Shares otherwise issuable shall utilize the same formula as is set forth in the Escrow Agreement.

7.3     Limitations and General Indemnification Provisions.

(a)     Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Article VII, the Indemnitees will not be entitled to receive any indemnification payments under clause (a) of Section 7.2 unless and until the aggregate amount of Losses incurred by the Indemnitees for which they are otherwise entitled to indemnification under this Article VII exceeds Three Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars ($300,00.00) (the “Deductible”), in which case the Indemnitors shall be obligated to the Indemnitees for the amount of all Losses of the Indemnitees from the first dollar of Losses of the Indemnitees required to reach the Deductible; provided, however, that the Deductible shall not apply to (i) indemnification claims for breaches of any Special Representation or (ii) Fraud Claims.

(b)     For all purposes of this Article VII, including for purposes determining whether there has been a breach giving rise to the indemnification claim and the amount of Losses, all of the representations, warranties and covenants set forth in this Agreement (including the disclosure schedules hereto) or any Ancillary Document that are qualified by materiality, Material Adverse Effect or words of similar import or effect will be deemed to have been made without any such qualification.

(c)     No investigation or knowledge by an Indemnitee or the Purchaser Representative or their respective Representatives of a breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of an Indemnitor shall affect the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Indemnitor or the recourse available to the Indemnitees under any provision of this Agreement, including this Article VII, with respect thereto.

A-35

(d)     The amount of any Losses suffered or incurred by any Indemnitee shall be reduced by the amount of any insurance proceeds paid to the Indemnitee or any Affiliate thereof as a reimbursement with respect to such Losses (and no right of subrogation shall accrue to any insurer hereunder, except to the extent that such waiver of subrogation would prejudice any applicable insurance coverage), net of the costs of collection and the increases in insurance premiums resulting from such Loss or insurance payment.

7.4     Indemnification Procedures.

(a)     The Purchaser Representative shall have the sole right to act on behalf of the Indemnitees with respect to any indemnification claims made pursuant to this Article VII, including bringing and settling any indemnification claims hereunder and receiving any notices on behalf of the Indemnitees. The Seller shall have the sole right to act on behalf of the Indemnitors with respect to any indemnification claims made pursuant to this Article VII, including bringing and settling any indemnification claims hereunder and receiving any notices on behalf of the Indemnitors.

(b)      In order to make a claim for indemnification hereunder pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the Purchaser Representative on behalf of an Indemnitee must provide written notice (a “Claim Notice”) of such claim to the Seller on behalf of the Indemnitors and, prior to the Expiration Date, the Escrow Agent, which Claim Notice shall include (i) a reasonable description of the facts and circumstances which relate to the subject matter of such indemnification claim to the extent then known and (ii) the amount of Losses suffered by the Indemnitee in connection with the claim to the extent known or reasonably estimable (provided, that the Purchaser Representative may thereafter in good faith adjust the amount of Losses with respect to the claim by providing a revised Claim Notice to the Seller (and, so long as any Escrow Property remains in the Escrow Account, the Escrow Agent); provided, that the copy of any Claim Notice provided to the Escrow Agent shall be redacted for any confidential or proprietary information of the Indemnitor or the Indemnitee described in clause (i).

(c)     In the case of any claim for indemnification under this Article VII arising from a claim of a third party (including any Governmental Authority) (a “Third Party Claim”), the Purchaser Representative must give a Claim Notice with respect to such Third Party Claim to the Seller promptly (but in no event later than thirty (30) days) after the Indemnitee’s receipt of notice of such Third Party Claim; provided, that the failure to give such notice will not relieve the Indemnitor of its indemnification obligations except to the extent that the defense of such Third Party Claim is materially and irrevocably prejudiced by the failure to give such notice. The Seller will have the right to defend and to direct the defense against any such Third Party Claim in its name and at its expense, and with counsel selected by the Seller unless (i) the Seller fails to acknowledge fully to the Purchaser Representative the obligations of the Indemnitor to the Indemnitee within twenty (20) days after receiving notice of such Third Party Claim or contests, in whole or in part, its indemnification obligations therefor or (ii) at any time while such Third Party Claim is pending, (A) there is a conflict of interest between the Seller on behalf of the Indemnitor and the Purchaser Representative on behalf of the Indemnitee in the conduct of such defense, (B) the applicable third party alleges a Fraud Claim or (C) such claim is criminal in nature, could reasonably be expected to lead to criminal proceedings, or seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnitee. If the Seller on behalf of the Indemnitor elects, and is entitled, to compromise or defend such Third Party Claim, it will within twenty (20) days (or sooner, if the nature of the Third Party Claim so requires) notify the Purchaser Representative of its intent to do so, and the Purchaser Representative and the Indemnitee will, at the request and expense of the Seller on behalf of the Indemnitor, cooperate in the defense of such Third Party Claim. If the Seller on behalf of the Indemnitor elects not to, or is not entitled under this Section 7.4 to, compromise or defend such Third Party Claim, fails to notify the Purchaser Representative of its election as herein provided or refuses to acknowledge or contests its obligation to indemnify under this Agreement, the Purchaser Representative on behalf of the Indemnitee may pay, compromise or defend such Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Indemnitor will have no indemnification obligations with respect to any such Third Party Claim which is settled by the Indemnitee or the Purchaser Representative without the prior written consent of the Seller on behalf of the Indemnitor (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnitee will not be required to refrain from paying any Third Party Claim which has matured by a final, non-appealable Order, nor will it be required to refrain from paying any Third Party Claim where the delay in paying such claim would result in the foreclosure of a Lien upon any of the property or assets then held by the Indemnitee or where any delay in payment would cause the Indemnitee material economic loss. The Seller’s right on behalf of the Indemnitor to direct the defense will include the right to compromise or enter into an agreement settling any Third Party Claim; provided, that no such compromise or settlement will

A-36

obligate the Indemnitee to agree to any settlement that that requires the taking or restriction of any action (including the payment of money and competition restrictions) by the Indemnitee other than the execution of a release for such Third Party Claim and/or agreeing to be subject to customary confidentiality obligations in connection therewith, except with the prior written consent of the Purchaser Representative on behalf of the Indemnitee (such consent to be withheld, conditioned or delayed only for a good faith reason). Notwithstanding the Seller’s right on behalf of the Indemnitor to compromise or settle in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the Seller on behalf of the Indemnitor may not settle or compromise any Third Party Claim over the objection of the Purchaser Representative on behalf of the Indemnitee; provided, however, that consent by the Purchaser Representative on behalf of the Indemnitee to settlement or compromise will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The Purchaser Representative on behalf of the Indemnitee will have the right to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Seller’s right on behalf of the Indemnitor to direct the defense.

(d)     With respect to any direct indemnification claim that is not a Third Party Claim, the Seller on behalf of the Indemnitor will have a period of thirty (30) days after receipt of the Claim Notice to respond thereto. If the Seller on behalf of the Indemnitor does not respond within such thirty (30) days, the Seller on behalf of the Indemnitor will be deemed to have accepted responsibility for the Losses set forth in such Claim Notice subject to the limitations on indemnification set forth in this Article VII and will have no further right to contest the validity of such Claim Notice. If the Seller on behalf of the Indemnitor responds within such thirty (30) days after the receipt of the Claim Notice and rejects such claim in whole or in part, the Purchaser Representative on behalf of the Indemnitee will be free to pursue such remedies as may be available under this Agreement (subject to Section 11.4), any Ancillary Documents or applicable Law.

7.5     Timing of Payment; Right to Set-Off; Recovery of Shares. Any indemnification obligation of an Indemnitor under this Article VII will be paid within five (5) Business Days after the determination of such obligation in accordance with Section 7.4. The provisions of this Article VII notwithstanding, at its sole discretion and without limiting any other rights of the Purchaser or any other Indemnitee under this Agreement or any Ancillary Document or at law or equity, to the extent that the Purchaser or another Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder, if a Indemnitor fails or refuses to promptly indemnify the Purchaser or such other Indemnitee as provided herein then the Purchaser or such other Indemnitee may offset the full amount to which the Purchaser or such other Indemnitee is entitled, in whole or in part, by reducing the amount of any payment or other obligation due to the Purchaser or such other Indemnitor pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Document. Without limiting any of the foregoing or any other rights of the Indemnitees under this Agreement or any Ancillary Document or at law or equity, in the event that a Indemnitor fails or refuses to promptly indemnify a Indemnitee as provided herein or otherwise fails or refuses to make any payments required under any Ancillary Document, in either case, where it is established that such Indemnitor is obligated to provide such indemnification or to make such payment, the applicable Indemnitee shall, in its sole discretion, be entitled to claim a portion of the Purchaser Ordinary Shares then owned by such Indemnitor up to an amount equal in value (based on the then current Purchaser Share Price) to the amount owed by such Indemnitor. In the event that such Indemnitor fails to promptly transfer any such Purchaser Ordinary Shares pursuant to this Section 7.5, the Purchaser Representative on behalf of the Purchaser shall be and hereby is authorized as the attorney-in-fact for such Indemnitor to transfer such Purchaser Ordinary Shares to the proper recipient thereof as required by this Section 7.5 and may transfer such Purchaser Ordinary Shares and cancel the share certificates for such Purchaser Ordinary Shares on the books and records of the Purchaser and issue new share certificates to such transferee and may instruct its agents and any exchanges on which Purchaser Ordinary Shares are listed or traded to do the same.

7.6     Exclusive Remedy. From and after the Closing, except with respect to Fraud Claims against the Seller or a Target Company or claims seeking injunctions or specific performance (including pursuant to Section 11.7) or claims under the terms of the Ancillary Documents, indemnification pursuant to this Article VII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for the Parties with respect to matters arising under this Agreement of any kind or nature, including for any misrepresentation or breach of any warranty, covenant, or other provision contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, including the negotiation and discussion thereof.

A-40

obligation under this Agreement was the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or before the Outside Date;

(c)     by written notice by either the Purchaser or the Company if a Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction shall have issued an Order or taken any other action permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and such Order or other action has become final and non-appealable; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(c) shall not be available to a Party if the failure by such Party or its Affiliates (or with respect to the Company, the Seller) to comply with any provision of this Agreement has been a substantial cause of, or substantially resulted in, such action by such Governmental Authority;

(d)     by written notice by the Company, if (i) there has been a breach by the Purchaser of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of the Purchaser shall have become untrue or inaccurate, in any case, which would result in a failure of a condition set forth in Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.2(b) to be satisfied (treating the Closing Date for such purposes as the date of this Agreement or, if later, the date of such breach), and (ii) the breach or inaccuracy is incapable of being cured or is not cured within the earlier of (A) twenty (20) days after written notice of such breach or inaccuracy is provided by the Company or (B) the Outside Date; provided, that the Company shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(d) if at such time the Company or the Seller is in material uncured breach of this Agreement;

(g)     by written notice by either the Purchaser or the Company if the Shareholder Meeting (including any adjournment or postponement thereof) is held and concluded, the shareholders of the Purchaser have duly voted, and the Required Shareholder Vote is not obtained.

9.2     Effect of Termination. This Agreement may only be terminated in the circumstances described in Section 9.1 and pursuant to a written notice delivered by the applicable Party to the other applicable Parties, which sets forth the basis for such termination, including the provision of Section 9.1 under which such termination is made. In the event of the valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void, and there shall be no Liability on the part of any Party or any of their respective Representatives, and all rights and obligations of each Party shall cease, except: (i) Sections 6.12, 6.13, 9.3, 9.4, Article VII, Article X, Article XI and this Section 9.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and (ii) nothing herein shall relieve any Party from Liability for any willful breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation under this Agreement or any Fraud Claim against such Party, in either case, prior to termination of this Agreement (in each case of clauses (i) and (ii) above, subject to Section 10.1). Without limiting the foregoing, and except as provided in Article VII, Sections 9.3 and 9.4 and this Section 9.2, but subject to Section 10.1, the Parties’ sole right prior to the Closing with respect to any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained in this Agreement by another Party or with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be the right, if applicable, to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1.

9.3     Fees and Expenses. Subject to Sections 9.4, 10.1, 11.14 and 11.15 all Expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the Party incurring such expenses. As used in this Agreement, “Expenses” shall include all out-of-pocket expenses (including all fees and expenses of counsel, accountants, investment bankers, financial advisors, financing sources, experts and consultants to a Party hereto or any of its Affiliates) incurred by a Party or on its behalf in connection with or related to the authorization, preparation, negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or any Ancillary Document related hereto and all other matters related to the consummation of this Agreement. With respect to the Purchaser, Expenses shall include

A-41

any and all deferred expenses (including fees or commissions payable to the underwriters and any legal fees) of the IPO upon consummation of a Business Combination.

9.4     Termination Fee. Notwithstanding Section 9.3 above, in the event that there is a valid and effective termination of this Agreement by the Purchaser pursuant to Section 9.1(e), then the Company shall pay to the Purchaser a termination fee equal to Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars ($500,000.00), plus the Expenses actually incurred by or on behalf of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates in connection with the authorization, preparation, negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, including any related SEC filings, the Proxy Documents and the Redemption (such aggregate amount, the “Termination Fee”). The Termination Fee shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Purchaser within ten (10) Business Days after the Purchaser delivers to the Company the amount of such Expenses, along with reasonable documentation in connection therewith. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Parties expressly acknowledge and agree that, with respect to any termination of this Agreement in circumstances where the Termination Fee is payable, the payment of the Termination Fee shall, in light of the difficulty of accurately determining actual damages, constitute liquidated damages with respect to any claim for damages or any other claim which the Purchaser would otherwise be entitled to assert against the Company or its Affiliates or any of their respective assets, or against any of their respective directors, officers, employees or shareholders with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy available to the Purchaser, provided, that the foregoing shall not limit (x) the Company from Liability for any Fraud Claim relating to events occurring prior to termination of this Agreement or (y) the rights of the Purchaser to seek specific performance or other injunctive relief in lieu of terminating this Agreement.

Article X
WAIVERS AND RELEASES

10.1     Waiver of Claims Against Trust. Each of the Company and the Seller hereby acknowledges that it has read the IPO Prospectus and understands that the Purchaser has established the Trust Account containing the proceeds of the IPO and from a certain private placement occurring simultaneously with the IPO, along with interest accrued from time to time thereon, initially in an amount of $40,000,000, for the benefit of the Purchaser’s public shareholders (the “Public Shareholders”) and that, except as otherwise described in the IPO Prospectus, the Purchaser may disburse monies from the Trust Account only: (a) to the Public Shareholders in the event they elect to redeem or convert their Purchaser Ordinary Shares in connection with the consummation of the Purchaser’s initial business combination (as such term is used in the IPO Prospectus) (“Business Combination”) or in connection with any extension of the deadline by which the Purchaser must complete its Business Combination, (b) to the Public Shareholders if the Purchaser fails to consummate a Business Combination within twenty-four (24) months after the closing of the IPO, (c) with respect to any interest income earned on the Trust Account balance, for working capital purposes and to pay any taxes or dissolution expenses or (d) to the Purchaser after or concurrently with the consummation of its Business Combination. For and in consideration of the Purchaser entering into this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Seller hereby agrees on behalf of itself and its Affiliates that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of them does now or shall at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom), regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, any proposed or actual business relationship between the Purchaser or its Representatives and any of them, this Agreement or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (any and all such claims are collectively referred to hereafter as the “Released Claims”). Each of the Company and the Seller on behalf of itself and its Affiliates hereby irrevocably waives any Released Claims they may have against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) now or in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with Purchaser or its Representatives and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) for any reason whatsoever (including for an alleged breach of this Agreement or any other agreement with Purchaser or its Representatives). Each of the Company and the Seller agrees and acknowledges that such irrevocable waiver is material to this Agreement and specifically relied upon by the Purchaser and its Affiliates to induce the Purchaser to enter in this Agreement, and each of the Company and the Seller further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable under applicable Law. To the extent that the Company, the Seller or any of their respective Affiliates commences any Action based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to the Purchaser or its Representatives, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against the Purchaser or its Representatives, each of

A-42

the Company and the Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that its and its Affiliates’ sole remedy shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Account and that such claim shall not permit any of them or their Affiliates (or any other Person claiming on their behalf or in lieu of them) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or any amounts contained therein. In the event that the Company, the Seller or any of their respective Affiliates commences any Action based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to the Purchaser or its Representatives which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, relief against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or the Public Shareholders, whether in the form of money damages or injunctive relief, the Purchaser and its Representatives, as applicable, shall be entitled to recover from the commencing Person and its Affiliates the associated legal fees and costs in connection with any such Action, in the event the Purchaser or its Representatives, as applicable, prevails in such Action. This Section 10.1 shall survive termination of this Agreement for any reason and continue indefinitely.

10.2     Release and Covenant Not to Sue. Effective as of the Closing, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Seller, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates that owns any share or other equity interest in or of the Seller (the “Releasing Persons”), hereby releases and discharges the Target Companies from and against any and all Actions, obligations, agreements, debts and Liabilities whatsoever, whether known or unknown, both at law and in equity, which such Releasing Person now has, has ever had or may hereafter have against the Target Companies arising on or prior to the Closing Date or on account of or arising out of any matter occurring on or prior to the Closing Date, including any rights to indemnification or reimbursement from a Target Company, whether pursuant to its Organizational Documents, Contract or otherwise, and whether or not relating to claims pending on, or asserted after, the Closing Date. From and after the Closing, each Releasing Person hereby irrevocably covenants to refrain from, directly or indirectly, asserting any Action, or commencing or causing to be commenced, any Action of any kind against the Target Companies or their respective Affiliates, based upon any matter purported to be released hereby. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the releases and restrictions set forth herein shall not apply to any claims a Releasing Person may have against any party pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or any Ancillary Document or any of the other matters set forth on Schedule 10.2.

11.2     Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement shall not be assigned by operation of Law or otherwise without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, the Company, the Purchaser Representative and the Seller, and any assignment without such consent shall be null and void; provided that no such assignment shall relieve the assigning Party of its obligations hereunder.

11.3     Third Parties. Nothing contained in this Agreement or in any instrument or document executed by any party in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall create any rights in, or be deemed to have been executed for the benefit of, any Person that is not a Party hereto or thereto or a successor or permitted assign of such a Party.

11.4     Arbitration. Any and all disputes, controversies and claims (other than applications for a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, permanent injunction or other equitable relief or application for enforcement of a resolution under this Section 11.4) arising out of, related to, or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (a “Dispute”) shall be governed by this Section 11.4. A party must, in the first instance, provide written notice of any Disputes to the other parties subject to such Dispute, which notice must provide a reasonably detailed description of the matters subject to the Dispute. The parties involved in such Dispute shall seek to resolve the Dispute on an amicable basis within ten (10) Business Days of the notice of such Dispute being received by such other parties subject to such Dispute; the “Resolution Period”); provided, that if any Dispute would reasonably be expected to have become moot or otherwise irrelevant if not decided within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Dispute, then there shall be no Resolution Period with respect to such Dispute. Any Dispute that is not resolved during the Resolution Period may immediately be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration pursuant to the then-existing Expedited Procedures of the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Procedures”) of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”). Any party involved in such Dispute may submit the Dispute to the AAA to commence the proceedings after the Resolution Period. To the extent that the AAA Procedures and this Agreement are in conflict, the terms of this Agreement shall control. The arbitration shall be conducted by one arbitrator nominated by the AAA promptly (but in any event within five (5) Business Days) after the submission of

A-44

the Dispute to the AAA and reasonably acceptable to each party subject to the Dispute, which arbitrator shall be a commercial lawyer with substantial experience arbitrating disputes under acquisition agreements. The arbitrator shall accept his or her appointment and begin the arbitration process promptly (but in any event within five (5) Business Days) after his or her nomination and acceptance by the parties subject to the Dispute. The proceedings shall be streamlined and efficient. The arbitrator shall decide the Dispute in accordance with the substantive law of the state of New York. Time is of the essence. Each party shall submit a proposal for resolution of the Dispute to the arbitrator within twenty (20) days after confirmation of the appointment of the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall have the power to order any party to do, or to refrain from doing, anything consistent with this Agreement, the Ancillary Documents and applicable Law, including to perform its contractual obligation(s); provided, that the arbitrator shall be limited to ordering pursuant to the foregoing power (and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall order) the relevant party (or parties, as applicable) to comply with only one or the other of the proposals. The arbitrator’s award shall be in writing and shall include a reasonable explanation of the arbitrator’s reason(s) for selecting one or the other proposal. The seat of arbitration shall be in New York County, State of New York. The language of the arbitration shall be English.

11.5     Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof. Subject to Section 11.4, all Actions arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and determined exclusively in any state or federal court located in New York, New York (or in any court in which appeal from such courts may be taken) (the “Specified Courts”). Subject to Section 11.4, each Party hereto hereby (a) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any Specified Court for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any Party hereto and (b) irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert by way of motion, defense or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the Action is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Action is improper, or that this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may not be enforced in or by any Specified Court. Each Party agrees that a final judgment in any Action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Each Party irrevocably consents to the service of the summons and complaint and any other process in any other action or proceeding relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, on behalf of itself, or its property, by personal delivery of copies of such process to such Party at the applicable address set forth in Section 11.1. Nothing in this Section 11.5 shall affect the right of any Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law.

11.6     Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the Parties hereto hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law any right it may have to a trial by jury with respect to any Action directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each Party hereto (a) certifies that no Representative of any other Party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other Party would not, in the event of any Action, seek to enforce that foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and the other Parties hereto have been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 11.6.

11.7     Specific Performance.

Section 1.     Purpose; Definitions.

1.1.     Purpose. The purpose of the Plan is to enable the Company to offer to employees, officers and directors of and consultants to the Company and its Subsidiaries, Parent and Affiliates whose past, present and/or potential future contributions to the Company and its Subsidiaries have been, are or will be important to the success of the Company, an opportunity to share monetarily in the success of and/or acquire a proprietary interest in the Company. The various types of long-term incentive awards that may be provided under the Plan will enable the Company to respond to changes in compensation practices, tax laws, accounting regulations and the size and diversity of its businesses.

1.2.     Definitions. For purposes of the Plan, the following terms shall be defined as set forth below:

A Change in Control caused by an increase in the percentage of share owned by any one person, or persons acting as a group, as a result of a transaction in which the Company acquires its share in exchange for property is not treated as a Change of Control for purposes of the Plan.

(f)     “Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time.

(g)     “Committee” means the committee of the Board designated to administer the Plan as provided in Section 2.1. If no Committee is so designated, then all references in this Plan to “Committee” shall mean the Board.

(h)     “Company” means Greenland Technologies Holding Corporation, a British Virgin Islands limited company.

(i)     “Disability” means physical or mental impairment as determined under procedures established by the Committee for purposes of the Plan.

B-1

(l)     “Holder” means a person who has received an award under the Plan.

(m)      “Incentive Share Option” means any Share Option intended to be and designated as an “incentive share option” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code.

(n)     “Non-qualified Share Option” means any Share Option that is not an Incentive Share Option.

(o)     “Normal Retirement” means retirement from active employment with the Company or any Subsidiary on or after such age which may be designated by the Committee as “retirement age” for any particular Holder. If no age is designated, it shall be 65.

(p)     “Ordinary Share” means an Ordinary Share of the Company, of no par value.

(q)     “Other Share-Based Award” means an award under Section 8 that is valued in whole or in part by reference to, or is otherwise based upon, Ordinary Shares.

(u)     “Restriction Period” means the time or times within which awards may be subject to forfeiture, including upon termination of employment or failure of performance conditions.

(v)     “Restricted Share” means an Ordinary Share received under an award made pursuant to Section 7 that is subject to restrictions under Section 7.

(x)     “Share Appreciation Right” means the right to receive from the Company, without a cash payment to the Company, either a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the SAR Value divided by the Fair Market Value (on the exercise date), or, at the Company’s election, cash in the amount of the SAR Value.

B-2

Section 2.     Administration.

2.1.     Committee Membership. The Plan shall be administered by the Board or a Committee. If administered by a Committee, such Committee shall be composed of at least two directors, all of whom are “non-employee” directors within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Committee members shall serve for such term as the Board may in each case determine and shall be subject to removal at any time by the Board.

2.2.     Powers of Committee. The Committee shall have full authority to award, pursuant to the terms of the Plan: (i) Share Options, (ii) Share Appreciation Rights, (iii) Restricted Shares, and/or (iv) Other Share-Based Awards. For purposes of illustration and not of limitation, the Committee shall have the authority (subject to the express provisions of this Plan):

(a)     to select the officers, employees, directors and consultants of the Company, Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate to whom Share Options, Share Appreciation Rights, Restricted Shares and/or Other Share-Based Awards may from time to time be awarded hereunder;

(b)     to determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, of any award granted hereunder (including, but not limited to, number of shares, share exercise price or types of consideration paid upon exercise of such options, such as other securities of the Company or other property, any restrictions or limitations, and any vesting, exchange, surrender, cancellation, acceleration, termination, exercise or forfeiture provisions, as the Committee shall determine);

(c)     to determine any specified performance goals or such other factors or criteria which need to be attained for the vesting of an award granted hereunder;

(d)     to determine the terms and conditions under which awards granted hereunder are to operate on a tandem basis and/or in conjunction with or apart from other awards under this Plan and cash and non-cash awards made by the Company, Parent, Subsidiary and/or Affiliate outside of this Plan; and

(e)     to make payments and distributions with respect to awards (i.e., to “settle” awards) through cash payments in an amount equal to the Repurchase Value.

The Committee may not modify or amend any outstanding Option or Share Appreciation Right to reduce the exercise price of such Option or Share Appreciation Right, as applicable, below the exercise price as of the date of grant of such Option or Share Appreciation Right. In addition, no payment of cash or other property having a value greater than the Repurchase Value may be made, and no Option or Share Appreciation Right with a lower exercise price may be granted, in exchange for, or in connection with, the cancellation or surrender of an Option or Share Appreciation Right.

2.3.     Interpretation of Plan. Subject to Section 10, the Committee shall have the authority to adopt, alter and repeal such administrative rules, guidelines and practices governing the Plan as it shall from time to time deem advisable, to interpret the terms and provisions of the Plan and any award issued under the Plan (and to determine the form and substance of all Agreements relating thereto), and to otherwise supervise the administration of the Plan. Subject to Section 10, all decisions made by the Committee pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall be made in the Committee’s sole discretion and shall be final and binding upon all persons, including the Company, its Parent, Subsidiaries, Affiliates and Holders.

Section 3.     Share Subject to Plan.

3.1.     Number of Shares. The total number of Ordinary Shares reserved and available for issuance under the Plan shall be up to [•] shares1. Ordinary Shares under the Plan (“Shares”) may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares or treasury shares. If any Ordinary Shares that have been granted pursuant to a Share Option cease to be subject to a Share Option, or if any Ordinary Shares that are subject to any Share Appreciation Right, Restricted Share award or Other Share-Based Award granted hereunder are forfeited, or any such award otherwise terminates without a payment being made to the Holder in the form of Ordinary Shares, such shares shall again be available for distribution in connection with future grants and awards under the Plan. If a Holder pays the exercise price of a Share Option by surrendering any previously owned shares and/or arranges to have the appropriate

____________

1         The number of shares for issuance under the Plan will be equal to 10% of the sum of (i) the number of issued and outstanding shares immediately after the closing and (ii) the number of shares reserved under the Plan.

B-3

number of shares otherwise issuable upon exercise withheld to cover the withholding tax liability associated with the Share Option exercise, then, in the Committee’s discretion, the number of shares available under the Plan may be increased by the lesser of (i) the number of such surrendered shares and shares used to pay taxes; and (ii) the number of shares purchased under such Share Option.

3.2.     Adjustment Upon Changes in Capitalization, Etc. In the event of any ordinary share dividend payable on Ordinary Shares, Ordinary Share split or reverse split, combination or exchange of Ordinary Shares, or other extraordinary or unusual event which results in a change in the Ordinary Shares of the Company as a whole, the Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion, whether such change equitably requires an adjustment in the terms of any award in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits available under the Plan (including number of shares subject to the award and the exercise price) or the aggregate number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan. Any such adjustments will be made by the Committee, whose determination will be final, binding and conclusive.

3.3.     Administrative Stand Still. In the event of any changes in capitalization described above in Section 3.2, or any other extraordinary transaction or change affecting the shares or the share price of Ordinary Share, including any equity restructuring or any securities offering or other similar transaction, for administrative convenience, the Committee may refuse to permit the exercise of any award for up to sixty days before and/or after such transaction; provided, however, that the Committee may not refuse to permit the exercise of any award during the last five trading days prior to the expiration of such award.

3.4.     Substitute Awards. In connection with an entity’s merger or consolidation with the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate or the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s or Affiliate’s acquisition of an entity’s property or share, the Committee may grant awards in substitution for any options or other share or share-based awards granted before such merger or consolidation by such entity or its affiliate. Substitute awards may be granted on such terms as the Committee deems appropriate, notwithstanding limitations on awards in the Plan. Substitute awards will not count against the plan limit, except that shares acquired by exercise of substitute Incentive Share Options will count against the maximum number of shares that may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Share Options under the Plan.

Section 4.     Eligibility.

Awards may be made or granted to employees, officers, directors and consultants of the Company or its Subsidiaries, Parent or Affiliates who are deemed to have rendered or to be able to render significant services to the Company or its Subsidiaries and who are deemed to have contributed or to have the potential to contribute to the success of the Company or Subsidiary and which recipients are qualified to receive options under the regulations governing Form S-8 registration statements under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”). No Incentive Share Option shall be granted to any person who is not an employee of the Company, a Subsidiary, Parent or Affiliate (including any non-employee directors) at the time of grant or so qualified as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, an award may be made or granted to a person in connection with his hiring or retention, or at any time on or after the date he reaches an agreement (oral or written) with the Company or its Subsidiaries, Parent or Affiliates with respect to such hiring or retention, even though it may be prior to the date the person first performs services for the Company or its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that no portion of any such award shall vest prior to the date the person first performs such services and the date of grant shall be deemed to be the date hiring or retention commences.

Section 5.     Share Options.

5.1.     Grant and Exercise. Share Options granted under the Plan may be of two types: (i) Incentive Share Options and (ii) Non-qualified Share Options. Any Share Option granted under the Plan shall contain such terms, not inconsistent with this Plan, or with respect to Incentive Share Options, not inconsistent with the Plan and the Code, as the Committee may from time to time approve. The Committee shall have the authority to grant Incentive Share Options or Non-qualified Share Options, or both types of Share Options which may be granted alone or in addition to other awards granted under the Plan.

B-4

5.2.     Terms and Conditions. Share Options granted under the Plan shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a)     Option Term. The term of each Share Option shall be fixed by the Committee; provided, however, that no Share Option may be exercisable after the expiration of ten years from the date of grant; provided, further, that no Incentive Share Option granted to a person who, at the time of grant, owns shares possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of voting shares of the Company (“10% Shareholder”) may be exercisable after the expiration of five years from the date of grant.

(b)     Exercise Price. The exercise price per Ordinary Share purchasable under a Share Option shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant; provided, however, that the exercise price of a Share Option may not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value on the date of grant or, if greater, the par value of an Ordinary Share; provided, further, that the exercise price of an Incentive Share Option granted to a 10% Shareholder may not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value on the date of grant.

(c)     Exercisability. Share Options shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Committee. The Committee intends generally to provide that Share Options be exercisable only in installments, i.e., that they vest over time, typically over a two- to five-year period. The Committee may waive such installment exercise provisions at any time at or after the time of grant in whole or in part, based upon such factors as the Committee determines.

(d)     Method of Exercise. Subject to whatever installment, exercise and waiting period provisions are applicable in a particular case, Share Options may be exercised in whole or in part at any time during the term of the Option by giving written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of Ordinary Shares to be purchased. Such notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the purchase price, which shall be in cash or, if provided in the Agreement, either in Ordinary Shares (including Restricted Shares and other contingent awards under this Plan) or partly in cash and partly in such Ordinary Shares, or such other means which the Committee determines are consistent with the Plan’s purpose and applicable law. Cash payments shall be made by wire transfer, certified or bank check or personal check, in each case payable to the order of the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to issue any Ordinary Shares or deliver certificates for Ordinary Shares with respect to which an Option is exercised until the Company has confirmed the receipt of good and available funds in payment of the purchase price thereof (except that, in the case of an exercise arrangement approved by the Committee and described in the next sentence of this section, payment may be made as soon as practicable after the exercise). The Committee may permit a Holder to elect to pay the exercise price upon the exercise of a Share Option by irrevocably authorizing a third party to sell Ordinary Shares (or a sufficient portion of the shares) acquired upon exercise of the Share Option and remit to the Company a sufficient portion of the sale proceeds to pay the entire exercise price and any tax withholding resulting from such exercise. The Committee may also authorize other means for paying the exercise price of a Share Option, including using the value of the Share Option (as determined by the difference in the Fair Market Value of the Ordinary Share and the exercise price of the Share Option or other means determined by the Committee).

(e)     Share Payments. Payments in the form of Ordinary Shares shall be valued at the Fair Market Value on the date of exercise. Such payments shall be made by delivery of share certificates in negotiable form that are effective to transfer good and valid title thereto to the Company, free of any liens or encumbrances.

(f)     Transferability. Except as may be set forth in the next sentence of this Section or in the Agreement, no Share Option shall be transferable by the Holder other than on the death of the Holder by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and all Share Options shall be exercisable, during the Holder’s lifetime, only by the Holder (or, to the extent of legal incapacity or incompetency, the Holder’s guardian or legal representative). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Holder, with the approval of the Committee, may transfer a Non-Qualified Share Option (i) (A) by gift, for no consideration, or (B) pursuant to a domestic relations order, in either case, to or for the benefit of the Holder’s “Immediate Family” (as defined below), or (ii) to an entity in which the Holder and/or members of Holder’s Immediate Family own more than fifty percent of the voting interest, subject to such limits as the Committee may establish and the execution of such documents as the Committee may require, and the transferee shall remain subject to all the terms and conditions applicable to the Non-Qualified Share Option prior to such transfer. The term “Immediate Family” shall mean any child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law or sister-in-law, including adoptive relationships, any person sharing the Holder’s household (other than a tenant or

B-5

employee), a trust in which these persons have more than fifty percent beneficial interest, and a foundation in which these persons (or the Holder) control the management of the assets. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, permit transfer of an Incentive Share Option in a manner consistent with applicable tax and securities law upon the Holder’s request.

(g)     Termination by Reason of Death. If a Holder’s employment by, or association with, the Company, Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate terminates by reason of death, any Share Option held by such Holder, unless otherwise determined by the Committee and set forth in the Agreement, shall thereupon automatically terminate, except that the portion of such Share Option that has vested on the date of death may thereafter be exercised by the legal representative of the estate or by the legatee of the Holder under the will of the Holder, for a period of one year (or such other greater or lesser period as the Committee may specify in the Agreement) from the date of such death or until the expiration of the stated term of such Share Option, whichever period is shorter.

(h)     Termination by Reason of Disability. If a Holder’s employment by, or association with, the Company, Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate terminates by reason of Disability, any Share Option held by such Holder, unless otherwise determined by the Committee and set forth in the Agreement, shall thereupon automatically terminate, except that the portion of such Share Option that has vested on the date of termination may thereafter be exercised by the Holder for a period of one year (or such other greater or lesser period as the Committee may specify in the Agreement) from the date of such termination or until the expiration of the stated term of such Share Option, whichever period is shorter.

(i)     Termination by Reason of Normal Retirement. Subject to the provisions of Section 12.3, if such Holder’s employment by, or association with, the Company, Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate terminates due to Normal Retirement, any Share Option held by such Holder, unless otherwise determined by the Committee and set forth in the Agreement, shall thereupon automatically terminate, except that the portion of such Share Option that has vested on the date of termination may thereafter be exercised by the Holder for a period of one year in the case of a Non-Qualified Share Option or three months in the case of an Incentive Share Option (or such other greater or lesser period as the Committee may specify in the Agreement) from the date of such termination or until the expiration of the stated term of such Share Option, whichever period is shorter.

(j)     Other Termination. Subject to the provisions of Section 12.3, if such Holder’s employment by, or association with, the Company, Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate terminates for any reason other than death, Disability or Normal Retirement, any Share Option held by such Holder, unless otherwise determined by the Committee and set forth in the Agreement, shall thereupon automatically terminate, except that, if the Holder’s employment is terminated by the Company, Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate without cause, the portion of such Share Option that has vested on the date of termination may thereafter be exercised by the Holder for a period of three months (or such other greater or lesser period as the Committee may specify in the Agreement) from the date of such termination or until the expiration of the stated term of such Share Option, whichever period is shorter.

(k)     Incentive Share Options. The aggregate Fair Market Value (on the date of grant of the Share Option) of Ordinary Shares with respect to which Incentive Share Options become exercisable for the first time by a Holder during any calendar year (under all such plans of the Company and its Parent and Subsidiaries) shall not exceed $100,000. To the extent that any Share Option intended to qualify as an Incentive Share Option does not so qualify, including by reason of the immediately preceding sentence, it shall constitute a separate Non-qualified Share Option. The Company shall have no liability to any Holder or any other person if a Share Option designated as an Incentive Share Option fails to qualify as such at any time or if a Share Option is determined to constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and the terms of such Share Option do not satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

(l)     Buyout and Settlement Provisions. The Committee may at any time, in its sole discretion, offer to repurchase a Share Option previously granted, at a purchase price not to exceed the Repurchase Value, based upon such terms and conditions as the Committee shall establish and communicate to the Holder at the time that such offer is made.

(m)     Rights as Shareholder. A Holder shall have none of the rights of a Shareholder with respect to the shares subject to the Option until such shares shall be transferred to the Holder upon the exercise of the Option.

B-6

Section 6.     Share Appreciation Rights.

6.1.     Grant and Exercise. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Committee may grant Share Appreciation Rights in tandem with an Option or alone and unrelated to an Option. The Committee may grant Share Appreciation Rights to participants who have been or are being granted Share Options under the Plan as a means of allowing such participants to exercise their Share Options without the need to pay the exercise price in cash. In the case of a Non-qualified Share Option, a Share Appreciation Right may be granted either at or after the time of the grant of such Non-qualified Share Option. In the case of an Incentive Share Option, a Share Appreciation Right may be granted only at the time of the grant of such Incentive Share Option.

6.2.     Terms and Conditions. Share Appreciation Rights shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a)     Exercisability. Share Appreciation Rights shall be exercisable as shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Agreement, subject, for Share Appreciation Rights granted in tandem with an Incentive Share Option, to the limitations, if any, imposed by the Code with respect to related Incentive Share Options.

(b)     Termination. All or a portion of a Share Appreciation Right granted in tandem with a Share Option shall terminate and shall no longer be exercisable upon the termination or after the exercise of the applicable portion of the related Share Option.

(c)     Method of Exercise. Share Appreciation Rights shall be exercisable upon such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Agreement and, for Share Appreciation Rights granted in tandem with a Share Option, by surrendering the applicable portion of the related Share Option. Upon exercise of all or a portion of a Share Appreciation Right and, if applicable, surrender of the applicable portion of the related Share Option, the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the SAR Value divided by the Fair Market Value on the date the Share Appreciation Right is exercised or, at the Company’s election, cash for the value so calculated.

(d)     Shares Available Under Plan. The granting of a Share Appreciation Right in tandem with a Share Option shall not affect the number of Ordinary Shares available for awards under the Plan. The number of shares available for awards under the Plan will, however, be reduced by the number of Ordinary Shares acquirable upon exercise of the Share Option to which such Share Appreciation Right relates.

Section 7.     Restricted Shares.

7.1.     Grant. Restricted Shares may be awarded either alone or in addition to other awards granted under the Plan. The Committee shall determine the eligible persons to whom, and the time or times at which, grants of Restricted Shares will be awarded, the number of shares to be awarded, the price (if any) to be paid by the Holder, any Restriction Period, the vesting schedule and rights to acceleration thereof, and all other terms and conditions of the awards.

7.2.     Restricted Share Terms and Conditions. Each Restricted Share award shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a)     Certificates. Restricted Shares, when issued, will be represented by a share certificate or certificates registered in the name of the Holder to whom such Restricted Shares shall have been awarded. During the Restriction Period, certificates representing the Restricted Shares and any securities constituting Retained Distributions (as defined below) shall bear a legend to the effect that ownership of the Restricted Shares (and such Retained Distributions) and the enjoyment of all rights appurtenant thereto are subject to the restrictions, terms and conditions provided in the Plan and the Agreement. Such certificates shall be deposited by the Holder with the Company, together with share powers or other instruments of assignment, each endorsed in blank, which will permit transfer to the Company of all or any portion of the Restricted Shares and any securities constituting Retained Distributions that shall be forfeited or that shall not become vested in accordance with the Plan and the Agreement.

(b)     Rights of Holder. Restricted Shares shall constitute issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares for all corporate purposes. The Holder will have the right to vote such Restricted Shares and to exercise all other rights, powers and privileges of a holder of Ordinary Shares with respect to such Restricted Shares, with the exceptions that (i) the Holder will not be entitled to delivery of the share certificate or certificates representing such Restricted

B-7

Shares until the Restriction Period shall have expired and unless all other vesting requirements with respect thereto shall have been fulfilled; (ii) the Company will retain custody of the share certificate or certificates representing the Restricted Shares during the Restriction Period; (iii) the Company will retain custody of all dividends and distributions (“Retained Distributions”) made, paid or declared with respect to the Restricted Shares (and such Retained Distributions will be subject to the same restrictions, terms and conditions as are applicable to the Restricted Share) until such time, if ever, as the Restricted Shares with respect to which such Retained Distributions shall have been made, paid or declared shall have become vested and with respect to which the Restriction Period shall have expired; and (iv) a breach by the Holder of any of the restrictions, terms or conditions contained in this Plan or the Agreement or otherwise established by the Committee with respect to any Restricted Share or Retained Distributions will cause a forfeiture of such Restricted Shares and any Retained Distributions with respect thereto.

(c)     Vesting; Forfeiture. Upon the expiration of the Restriction Period with respect to each award of Restricted Shares and the satisfaction of any other applicable restrictions, terms and conditions (i) all or part of such Restricted Shares shall become vested in accordance with the terms of the Agreement, and (ii) any Retained Distributions with respect to such Restricted Shares shall become vested to the extent that the Restricted Shares related thereto shall have become vested. Any such Restricted Shares and Retained Distributions that do not vest shall be forfeited to the Company and the Holder shall not thereafter have any rights with respect to such Restricted Shares and Retained Distributions that shall have been so forfeited.

Section 8.     Other Share-Based Awards.

Other Share-Based Awards may be awarded, subject to limitations under applicable law, that are denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on or related to, Ordinary Shares, as deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan, including, without limitation, purchase rights, Ordinary Shares awarded which are not subject to any restrictions or conditions, convertible or exchangeable securities, or other rights convertible into Ordinary Shares and awards valued by reference to the value of securities of or the performance of specified Subsidiaries. These Other Share-Based Awards may include performance shares or options, whose award is tied to specific performance goals. Other Share-Based Awards may be awarded either alone or in addition to or in tandem with any other awards under this Plan or any other plan of the Company. Each Other Share-Based Award shall be subject to such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Committee.

Section 9.     Accelerated Vesting and Exercisability.

9.1.     Non-Approved Transactions. If there is a Change of Control, and the Board does not authorize or otherwise approve such transaction, then the vesting periods of any and all Share Options and other awards granted and outstanding under the Plan shall be accelerated and all such Share Options and awards will immediately and entirely vest, and the respective holders thereof will have the immediate right to purchase and/or receive any and all Ordinary Shares subject to such Share Options and awards on the terms set forth in this Plan and the respective Agreements respecting such Share Options and awards, and all performance goals will be deemed achieved at 100% of target levels and all other terms and conditions will be deemed met.

9.2.     Approved Transactions. In the event of an Asset Sale or if there is a Change of Control that has been approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, then the Committee may (i) accelerate the vesting of any and all Share Options and other awards granted and outstanding under the Plan; (ii) require a Holder of any Share Option, Share Appreciation Right, Restricted Share award or Other Share-Based Award granted under this Plan to relinquish such award to the Company upon the tender by the Company to Holder of cash, shares or other property, or any combination thereof, in an amount equal to the Repurchase Value of such award; provided, however, that the obligation to tender the Repurchase Value to such Holders may be subject to any terms and conditions to which the tender of consideration to the Company’s shareholders in connection with the acquisition is subject, including any terms and conditions of the acquisition providing for an adjustment to or escrow of such consideration; and provided, further, that in the case of any Share Option or Share Appreciation Right with an exercise price that equals or exceeds the price paid for an Ordinary Share in connection with the acquisition, the Committee may cancel the Share Option or Share Appreciation Right without the payment of consideration therefor; and/or (iii) terminate all incomplete performance periods in respect of awards in effect on the date the acquisition occurs, determine the extent to which performance goals have been met based upon such information then available as it deems relevant and cause to be paid to the Holder all or the applicable portion of the award based upon the Committee’s determination of the degree of attainment of performance goals, or on such other basis determined by the Committee.

B-8

9.3.     Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Plan or any award granted hereunder to the contrary, no acceleration shall occur with respect to any award to the extent such acceleration would cause the Plan or an award granted hereunder to fail to comply with Code Section 409A.

Section 10.     Amendment and Termination.

The Board may at any time, and from time to time, amend, alter, suspend or discontinue any of the provisions of the Plan or any Agreement, but no amendment, alteration, suspension or discontinuance shall be made that would impair the rights of a Holder under any Agreement theretofore entered into hereunder, without the Holder’s consent, except as set forth in this Plan or the Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no amendment to the provisions of the Plan shall be effective unless approved by the shareholders of the Company to the extent shareholder approval is necessary to satisfy any provision of the Code or other applicable law or the listing requirements of any national securities exchange on which the Company’s securities are listed.

Section 11.     Term of Plan.

11.1.     Effective Date. The Effective Date of the Plan shall be [•], subject to the approval of the Plan by the Company’s shareholders within one year after the Effective Date. Only Share Options may be granted under the Plan prior to such approval of the Plan by the Company’s shareholders; provided, however, that if the Plan is not approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Ordinary Shares within one year from the Effective Date, then (i) no Incentive Share Options may be granted hereunder and (ii) all Incentive Share Options previously granted hereunder shall be automatically converted into Non-qualified Share Options.

11.2.     Termination Date. Unless terminated by the Board, this Plan shall continue to remain effective until such time as no further awards may be granted and all awards granted under the Plan are no longer outstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, grants of Incentive Share Options may be made only during the ten-year period beginning on the Effective Date.

Section 12.     General Provisions.

12.1.     Written Agreements. Each award granted under the Plan shall be confirmed by, and shall be subject to the terms of, the Agreement executed by the Company and the Holder, or such other document as may be determined by the Committee. The Committee may terminate any award made under the Plan if the Agreement relating thereto is not executed and returned to the Company within 10 days after the Agreement has been delivered to the Holder for his or her execution.

12.2.     Unfunded Status of Plan. The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive and deferred compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Holder by the Company, nothing contained herein shall give any such Holder any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company.

12.3.     Employees.

(a)     Engaging in Competition With the Company; Solicitation of Customers and Employees; Disclosure of Confidential Information. If a Holder’s employment with the Company, Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate is terminated for any reason whatsoever, and Holder (i) within three months after the date thereof, accepts employment with any competitor of, or otherwise engages in competition with, the Company, Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate, (ii) within two years after the date thereof, solicits any customers or employees of the Company, Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate to do business with or render services to the Holder or any business with which the Holder becomes affiliated or to which the Holder renders services or (iii) at any time uses or discloses to anyone outside the Company any confidential information of the Company, Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate in violation of the Company’s policies or any agreement between the Holder and the Company, Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may require such Holder to return (through the payment of cash, return and transfer to the Company of Ordinary Shares or by other methods determined by the Committee) to the Company the economic value of any award that was realized or obtained by such Holder at any time during the period beginning on the date that is six months prior to the date such Holder’s employment with the Company is terminated; provided, however, that if the Holder is a resident of the State of California, such right must be exercised by the Company for cash within six months after the date of termination of the Holder’s service to the Company or within six months after exercise of the applicable Share Option, whichever is later. In such event, Holder agrees to (1) remit

B-9

to the Company, in cash, an amount equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value of the shares subject to the award on the date of termination (or the sales price of such Shares if the Shares were sold during such six month period) and the price the Holder paid the Company for such shares, or (2) in the case of SARs, shall, at the Company’s election, return the full amount paid to the Holder in connection therewith.

(b)     Termination for Cause. If a Holder’s employment with the Company, Parent, subsidiary or Affiliate is terminated for cause, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, require such Holder to return to the Company the economic value of any award that was realized or obtained by such Holder at any time during the period beginning on that date that is six months prior to the date such Holder’s employment with the Company is terminated. In such event, Holder agrees to (1) remit to the Company, in cash, an amount equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value of the shares on the date of termination (or the sales price of such Shares if the shares were sold during such six month period) and the price the Holder paid the Company for such shares, (2) with the consent of the Company, which may be withheld for any reason or no reason, surrender to the Company Ordinary Shares having Fair Market Value equal to the Fair Market Value on the date they were acquired upon exercise of the Option or (3) in the case of SARs, shall return the full amount paid to the Holder in connection therewith.

(c)     No Right of Employment. Nothing contained in the Plan or in any award hereunder shall be deemed to confer upon any Holder who is an employee of the Company, Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate any right to continued employment with the Company, Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the Company, Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate to terminate the employment of any Holder who is an employee at any time.

12.4.     No Fractional Shares. No fractional Ordinary Shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan. The Committee shall determine whether cash, additional awards or other securities or property shall be issued or paid in lieu of fractional Ordinary Shares or whether any fractional shares should be rounded, forfeited or otherwise eliminated.

12.5.     Provisions for Foreign Participants. The Committee may modify awards granted to Holders who are foreign nationals or employed outside the United States or establish subplans or procedures under the Plan to address differences in laws, rules, regulations or customs of such foreign jurisdictions with respect to tax, securities, currency, employee benefit or other matters.

12.6.     Limitations on Liability.

(a)     Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, no individual acting as a director, officer, other employee or agent of the Company or any Subsidiary, Parent or Affiliate will be liable to any Holder, former Holder, spouse, beneficiary, or any other person for any claim, loss, liability, or expense incurred in connection with the Plan or any award, and such individual will not be personally liable with respect to the Plan because of any contract or other instrument executed in his or her capacity as member of the Committee, director, officer, other employee or agent of the Company or any Subsidiary, Parent or Affiliate. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each director, officer, other employee and agent of the Company or any Subsidiary, Parent or Affiliate that has been or will be granted or delegated any duty or power relating to the Plan’s administration or interpretation, against any cost or expense (including attorneys’ fees) or liability (including any sum paid in settlement of a claim with the Committee’s approval) arising from any act or omission concerning this Plan unless arising from such person’s own fraud or bad faith.

(b)     Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall be liable to a Holder or any other person as to: (i) the non-issuance or sale of shares as to which the Company has been unable to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any shares hereunder; and (ii) any tax consequence expected, but not realized, by any Holder or other person due to the receipt, exercise or settlement of any Award granted hereunder.

12.7.     Lock-Up Period. The Company may, at the request of any underwriter, placement agent or otherwise, in connection with the registered offering of any Company securities under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption therefrom, prohibit Holders from, directly or indirectly, selling or otherwise transferring any shares or other Company securities acquired under this Plan during a period of up to one hundred eighty days following either the effective date of a Company registration statement filed under the Securities Act, in the case of a registered offering, or the closing date of the sale of the Company securities, in the case of an offering exempt from registration, or for such longer period as determined by the underwriter or placement agent.

B-10

12.8.     Data Privacy. As a condition for receiving any award, each Holder explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of personal data as described in this paragraph by and among the Company and its Parent, Subsidiaries and Affiliates exclusively for implementing, administering and managing the Holder’s participation in the Plan. The Company and its Parent, Subsidiaries and Affiliates may hold certain personal information about a Holder, including the Holder’s name, address and telephone number; birthdate; social security, insurance number or other identification number; salary; nationality; job title(s); any shares held in the Company or its Parent, Subsidiaries and Affiliates; and award details, to implement, manage and administer the Plan and awards (the “Data”). The Company and its Parent, Subsidiaries and Affiliates may transfer the Data amongst themselves as necessary to implement, administer and manage a Holder’s participation in the Plan, and the Company and its Parent, Subsidiaries and Affiliates may transfer the Data to third parties assisting the Company with Plan implementation, administration and management. These recipients may be located in the Holder’s country, or elsewhere, and the Holder’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the recipients’ country. By accepting an award, each Holder authorizes such recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, to implement, administer and manage the Holder’s participation in the Plan, including any required Data transfer to a broker or other third party with whom the Company or the Holder may elect to deposit any shares. The Data related to a Holder will be held only as long as necessary to implement, administer, and manage the Holder’s participation in the Plan. A Holder may, at any time, view the Data that the Company holds regarding such Holder, request additional information about the storage and processing of the Data regarding such Holder, recommend any necessary corrections to the Data regarding the Holder or refuse or withdraw the consents in this Section 12.8 in writing, without cost, by contacting the local human resources representative. The Company may cancel Holder’s ability to participate in the Plan and, in the Committee’s discretion, the Holder may forfeit any outstanding awards if the Holder refuses or withdraws the consents in this Section 12.8. For more information on the consequences of refusing or withdrawing consent, Holders may contact their local human resources representative.

12.9.     Successor. The obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be binding upon any successor corporation or organization resulting from the merger, consolidation or other reorganization of the Company, or upon any successor corporation or organization succeeding to all or substantially all of the assets and business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

12.10.     Investment Representations; Company Policy. The Committee may require each person acquiring Ordinary Shares pursuant to a Share Option or other award under the Plan to represent to and agree with the Company in writing that the Holder is acquiring the shares for investment without a view to distribution thereof. Each person acquiring Ordinary Shares pursuant to a Share Option or other award under the Plan shall be required to abide by all policies of the Company in effect at the time of such acquisition and thereafter with respect to the ownership and trading of the Company’s securities.

12.11.     Additional Incentive Arrangements. Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Board from adopting such other or additional incentive arrangements as it may deem desirable, including, but not limited to, the granting of Share Options and the awarding of Ordinary Share and cash otherwise than under the Plan; and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

12.12.     Withholding Taxes. Not later than the date as of which an amount must first be included in the gross income of the Holder for Federal income tax purposes with respect to any Share Option or other award under the Plan, the Holder shall pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Committee regarding the payment of, any Federal, state and local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld or paid with respect to such amount. If permitted by the Committee, tax withholding or payment obligations may be settled with Ordinary Share, including Ordinary Share that is part of the award that gives rise to the withholding requirement. The obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be conditioned upon such payment or arrangements and the Company or the Holder’s employer (if not the Company) shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Holder from the Company or any Subsidiary.

12.13.     Clawback. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, any award which is subject to recovery under any law, government regulation or listing requirement of any national securities exchange on which the Company’s securities are listed, will be subject to such deductions and clawback as may be required to be made pursuant to such law, government regulation or listing requirement (or any policy adopted by the Company pursuant to any such law, government regulation or listing requirement).

12.14.     Governing Law. The Plan and all awards made and actions taken thereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York (without regard to choice of law provisions).

B-11

12.15.     Other Benefit Plans. Any award granted under the Plan shall not be deemed compensation for purposes of computing benefits under any retirement plan of the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate and shall not affect any benefits under any other benefit plan now or subsequently in effect under which the availability or amount of benefits is related to the level of compensation (unless required by specific reference in any such other plan to awards under this Plan).

12.16.     Non-Transferability. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or the Agreement, no right or benefit under the Plan may be alienated, sold, assigned, hypothecated, pledged, exchanged, transferred, encumbranced or charged, and any attempt to alienate, sell, assign, hypothecate, pledge, exchange, transfer, encumber or charge the same shall be void.

12.17.     Applicable Laws. The obligations of the Company with respect to all Share Options and other awards under the Plan shall be subject to (i) all applicable laws, rules and regulations and such approvals by any governmental agencies as may be required, including, without limitation, the Securities Act, and (ii) the rules and regulations of any securities exchange on which the Ordinary Shares may be listed. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Plan and all awards will be administered only in conformance with such applicable laws. To the extent such applicable laws permit, the Plan and all Agreements will be deemed amended as necessary to conform to such applicable laws.

12.18.     Conflicts. If any of the terms or provisions of the Plan or an Agreement conflict with the requirements of Section 422 of the Code, then such terms or provisions shall be deemed inoperative to the extent they so conflict with such requirements. Additionally, if this Plan or any Agreement does not contain any provision required to be included herein under Section 422 of the Code, such provision shall be deemed to be incorporated herein and therein with the same force and effect as if such provision had been set out at length herein and therein. If any of the terms or provisions of any Agreement conflict with any terms or provisions of the Plan, then such terms or provisions shall be deemed inoperative to the extent they so conflict with the requirements of the Plan. Additionally, if any Agreement does not contain any provision required to be included therein under the Plan, such provision shall be deemed to be incorporated therein with the same force and effect as if such provision had been set out at length therein.

12.19.     Compliance with Section 409A of the Code. The Company intends that any awards be structured in compliance with, or to satisfy an exemption from, Section 409A of the Code, such that there are no adverse tax consequences, interest, or penalties pursuant to Section 409A of the Code as a result of the awards. Notwithstanding the Company’s intention, in the event any award is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Committee may, in its sole discretion and without a participant’s prior consent, amend this Plan and/or outstanding Agreements, adopt policies and procedures, or take any other actions (including amendments, policies, procedures and actions with retroactive effect) as are necessary or appropriate to (i) exempt this Plan and/or any award from the application of Section 409A of the Code, (ii) preserve the intended tax treatment of any such award, or (iii) comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, including without limitation any such regulations guidance, compliance programs and other interpretive authority that may be issued after the date of grant of an award. This Plan shall be interpreted at all times in such a manner that the terms and provisions of the Plan and the awards are exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Code.

12.20.     Sub-Plans. The Committee may from time to time establish sub-plans under the Plan for purposes of satisfying blue sky, securities, tax or other laws of various jurisdictions in which the Company intends to grant awards. Any sub-plans shall contain such limitations and other terms and conditions as the Committee determines are necessary or desirable. All sub-plans shall be deemed a part of the Plan, but each sub-plan shall apply only to the participants in the jurisdiction for which the sub-plan was designed.

12.21.     Non-Registered Shares. The Ordinary Shares to be distributed under this Plan have not been, as of the Effective Date, registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state or foreign securities laws and the Company has no obligation to any Holder to register the Ordinary Shares or to assist the Holder in obtaining an exemption from the various registration requirements, or to list the Ordinary Shares on a national securities exchange or any other trading or quotation system.

12.22.     Non-Uniform Treatment. The Committee’s determinations under the Plan need not be uniform and may be made by it selectively among persons who are eligible to receive, or actually receive, awards. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee shall be entitled to make non-uniform and selective determinations, amendments and adjustments, and to enter into non-uniform and selective Agreements.

OF

GREENLAND TECHNOLOGIES HOLDING CORPORATION

a company limited by shares

1       REGISTERED SHARES

1.1    Every Member is entitled to a certificate signed by a Director of the Company or under the Seal specifying the number of Shares held by him and the signature of the Director and the Seal may be facsimiles.

1.2    Any Member receiving a certificate shall indemnify and hold the Company and its Directors and officers harmless from any loss or liability which it or they may incur by reason of any wrongful or fraudulent use or representation made by any person by virtue of the possession thereof. If a certificate for Shares is worn out or lost it may be renewed on production of the worn out certificate or on satisfactory proof of its loss together with such indemnity as may be required by a Resolution of Directors.

1.3    If several Eligible Persons are registered as joint holders of any Shares, any one of such Eligible Persons may give an effectual receipt for any Distribution.

1.4    Nothing in these Articles shall require title to any Shares or other Securities to be evidenced by a certificate if the Act and the rules of the Designated Stock Exchange permit otherwise.

1.5    Subject to the Act and the rules of the Designated Stock Exchange, the Board of Directors without further consultation with the holders of any Shares or Securities may resolve that any class or series of Shares or other Securities in issue or to be issued from time to time may be issued, registered or converted to uncertificated form and the practices instituted by the operator of the relevant system. No provision of these Articles will apply to any uncertificated shares or Securities to the extent that they are inconsistent with the holding of such shares or securities in uncertificated form or the transfer of title to any such shares or securities by means of a relevant system.

1.6    Conversion of Shares held in certificated form into Shares held in uncertificated form, and vice versa, may be made in such manner as the Board of Directors, in its absolute discretion, may think fit (subject always to the requirements of the relevant system concerned). The Company or any duly authorised transfer agent shall enter on the register of members how many Shares are held by each member in uncertificated form and certificated form and shall maintain the register of members in each case as is required by the relevant system concerned. Notwithstanding any provision of these Articles, a class or series of Shares shall not be treated as two classes by virtue only of that class or series comprising both certificated shares and uncertificated shares or as a result of any provision of these Articles which applies only in respect of certificated shares or uncertificated shares.

1.7    Nothing contained in Regulation 1.5 and 1.6 is meant to prohibit the Shares from being able to trade electronically.

2       SHARES

2.1    Subject to the provisions of these Articles and, where applicable, the rules of the Designated Stock Exchange, the unissued Shares of the Company shall be at the disposal of the Directors and Shares and other Securities may be issued and option to acquire Shares or other Securities may be granted at such times, to such Eligible Persons, for such consideration and on such terms as the Directors may by Resolution of Directors determine.

2.2    Without prejudice to any special rights previously conferred on the holders of any existing Preferred Shares or class of Preferred Shares, any class of Preferred Shares may be issued with such preferred, deferred or other special rights or such restrictions, whether in regard to dividend, voting or otherwise as the Directors may from time to time determine.

C-8

2.3    Section 46 of the Act does not apply to the Company.

2.4    A Share may be issued for consideration in any form, including money, a promissory note, real property, personal property (including goodwill and know-how) or a contract for future services.

2.5    No Shares may be issued for a consideration other than money, unless a Resolution of Directors has been passed stating:

(a)     the amount to be credited for the issue of the Shares; and

(b)    that, in their opinion, the present cash value of the non-money consideration for the issue is not less than the amount to be credited for the issue of the Shares.

(a)     the names and addresses of the persons who hold Shares;

(b)    the number of each class and series of Shares held by each Member;

(c)     the date on which the name of each Member was entered in the share register; and

(d)    the date on which any Eligible Person ceased to be a Member.

2.7    The share register may be in any such form as the Directors may approve, but if it is in magnetic, electronic or other data storage form, the Company must be able to produce legible evidence of its contents. Until the Directors otherwise determine, the magnetic, electronic or other data storage form shall be the original share register.

2.8    A Share is deemed to be issued when the name of the Member is entered in the share register.

2.9    Subject to the provisions of the Act, Shares may be issued on the terms that they are redeemable, or at the option of the Company be liable to be redeemed on such terms and in such manner as the Directors before or at the time of the issue of such Shares may determine. The Directors may issue options, warrants, rights or convertible securities or securities or a similar nature conferring the right upon the holders thereof to subscribe for, purchase or receive any class of Shares or Securities on such terms as the Directors may from time to time determine.

3       FORFEITURE

3.1    Shares that are not fully paid on issue are subject to the forfeiture provisions set forth in this Regulation and for this purpose Shares issued for a promissory note or a contract for future services are deemed to be not fully paid.

3.2    A written notice of call specifying the date for payment to be made shall be served on the Member who defaults in making payment in respect of the Shares.

3.3    The written notice of call referred to in Regulation 3.2 shall name a further date not earlier than the expiration of 14 days from the date of service of the notice on or before which the payment required by the notice is to be made and shall contain a statement that in the event of non-payment at or before the time named in the notice the Shares, or any of them, in respect of which payment is not made will be liable to be forfeited.

3.4    Where a written notice of call has been issued pursuant to Regulation 3.2 and the requirements of the notice have not been complied with, the Directors may, at any time before tender of payment, forfeit and cancel the Shares to which the notice relates.

3.5    The Company is under no obligation to refund any moneys to the Member whose Shares have been cancelled pursuant to Regulation 3.4 and that Member shall be discharged from any further obligation to the Company.

4       TRANSFER OF SHARES

4.1    Subject to the Memorandum, certificated shares may be transferred by a written instrument of transfer signed by the transferor and containing the name and address of the transferee, which shall be sent to the Company for registration. A member shall be entitled to transfer uncertificated shares by means of a relevant system and the operator of the relevant system shall act as agent of the Members for the purposes of the transfer of such uncertificated shares.

C-9

4.2    The transfer of a Share is effective when the name of the transferee is entered on the share register.

(a)     to accept such evidence of the transfer of Shares as they consider appropriate; and

(b)    that the transferee’s name should be entered in the share register notwithstanding the absence of the instrument of transfer.

4.4    Subject to the Memorandum, the personal representative of a deceased Member may transfer a Share even though the personal representative is not a Member at the time of the transfer.

5       DISTRIBUTIONS

5.1    The Directors of the Company may, by Resolution of Directors, authorise a distribution at a time and of an amount they think fit if they are satisfied, on reasonable grounds, that, immediately after the distribution, the value of the Company’s assets will exceed its liabilities and the Company will be able to pay its debts as and when they fall due.

5.2    Dividends may be paid in money, shares, or other property.

5.3    The Company may, by Resolution of Directors, from time to time pay to the Members such interim dividends as appear to the Directors to be justified by the profits of the Company, provided always that they are satisfied, on reasonable grounds, that, immediately after the distribution, the value of the Company’s assets will exceed its liabilities and the Company will be able to pay its debts as and when they fall due.

5.4    Notice in writing of any dividend that may have been declared shall be given to each Member in accordance with Regulation 21 and all dividends unclaimed for three years after such notice has been given to a Member may be forfeited by Resolution of Directors for the benefit of the Company.

6       REDEMPTION OF SHARES AND TREASURY SHARES

6.1    The Company may purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire and hold its own Shares save that the Company may not purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire its own Shares without the consent of the Member whose Shares are to be purchased, redeemed or otherwise acquired unless the Company is permitted or required by the Act or any other provision in the Memorandum or Articles to purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire the Shares without such consent.

6.2    The purchase, redemption or other acquisition by the Company of its own Shares is deemed not to be a distribution where:

(a)     the Company purchases, redeems or otherwise acquires the Shares pursuant to a right of a Member to have his Shares redeemed or to have his shares exchanged for money or other property of the Company, or

(b)    the Company purchases, redeems or otherwise acquires the Shares by virtue of the provisions of section 179 of the Act.

6.3    Sections 60, 61 and 62 of the Act shall not apply to the Company.

6.4    Shares that the Company purchases, redeems or otherwise acquires pursuant to this Regulation may be cancelled or held as Treasury Shares except to the extent that such Shares are in excess of 50 percent of the issued Shares in which case they shall be cancelled but they shall be available for reissue.

8.4    The Director convening a meeting of Members shall fix in the notice of the meeting the record date for determining those Members that are entitled to vote at the meeting.

(a)     if two or more persons hold Shares jointly each of them may be present in person or by proxy at a meeting of Members and may speak as a Member;

(b)    if only one of the joint owners is present in person or by proxy he may vote on behalf of all joint owners; and

(c)     if two or more of the joint owners are present in person or by proxy they must vote as one and in the event of disagreement between any of the joint owners of Shares then the vote of the joint owner whose name appears first (or earliest) in the share register in respect of the relevant Shares shall be recorded as the vote attributable to the Shares.

8.11  A Member shall be deemed to be present at a meeting of Members if he participates by telephone or other electronic means and all Members participating in the meeting are able to hear each other.

8.12  A meeting of Members is duly constituted if, at the commencement of the meeting, there are present in person or by proxy not less than 50 per cent of the votes of the Shares entitled to vote on Resolutions of Members to be considered at the meeting. If the Company has two or more classes of shares, a meeting may be quorate for some purposes and not for others. A quorum may comprise a single Member or proxy and then such person may pass a Resolution of Members and a certificate signed by such person accompanied where such person holds a proxy by a copy of the proxy instrument shall constitute a valid Resolution of Members.

8.13  If within two hours from the time appointed for the meeting of Members, a quorum is not present, the meeting, at the discretion of the Chairman of the Board of Directors shall either be dissolved or stand adjourned to a business day in the jurisdiction in which the meeting was to have been held at the same time and place, and if at the adjourned meeting there are present within one hour from the time appointed for the meeting in person or by proxy not less than one third of the votes of the Shares entitled to vote or each class or series of Shares entitled to vote, as applicable, on the matters to be considered by the meeting, those present shall constitute a quorum but otherwise the meeting shall either be dissolved or stand further adjourned at the discretion of the Chairman of the Board of Directors.

8.14  At every meeting of Members, the Chairman of the Board shall preside as chairman of the meeting. If there is no Chairman of the Board or if the Chairman of the Board is not present at the meeting, the Members present shall choose one of their number to be the chairman. If the Members are unable to choose a chairman for any

C-12

reason, then the person representing the greatest number of voting Shares present in person or by proxy at the meeting shall preside as chairman failing which the oldest individual Member or representative of a Member present shall take the chair.

8.15  The person appointed as chairman of the meeting pursuant to Regulation 8.14 may adjourn any meeting from time to time, and from place to place. For the avoidance of doubt, a meeting can be adjourned for as many times as may be determined to be necessary by the chairman and a meeting may remain open indefinitely for as long a period as may be determined by the chairman.

8.16  At any meeting of the Members the chairman of the meeting is responsible for deciding in such manner as he considers appropriate whether any resolution proposed has been carried or not and the result of his decision shall be announced to the meeting and recorded in the minutes of the meeting.

If the chairman fails to take a poll then any Member present in person or by proxy who disputes the announcement by the chairman of the result of any vote may immediately following such announcement demand that a poll be taken and the chairman shall cause a poll to be taken. If a poll is taken at any meeting, the result shall be announced to the meeting and recorded in the minutes of the meeting.

8.17  Subject to the specific provisions contained in this Regulation for the appointment of representatives of Members other than individuals the right of any individual to speak for or represent a Member shall be determined by the law of the jurisdiction where, and by the documents by which, the Member is constituted or derives its existence. In case of doubt, the Directors may in good faith seek legal advice and unless and until a court of competent jurisdiction shall otherwise rule, the Directors may rely and act upon such advice without incurring any liability to any Member or the Company.

8.18  Any Member other than an individual may by resolution of its Directors or other governing body authorise such individual as it thinks fit to act as its representative at any meeting of Members or of any class of Members, and the individual so authorised shall be entitled to exercise the same rights on behalf of the Member which he represents as that Member could exercise if it were an individual.

8.19  The chairman of any meeting at which a vote is cast by proxy or on behalf of any Member other than an individual may at the meeting but not thereafter call for a notarially certified copy of such proxy or authority which shall be produced within 7 days of being so requested or the votes cast by such proxy or on behalf of such Member shall be disregarded.

8.20  Directors of the Company may attend and speak at any meeting of Members and at any separate meeting of the holders of any class or series of Shares.

Commencing at the Company’s first AGM, and at each following AGM, Directors elected to succeed those Directors whose terms expire shall be elected for a term of office to expire at the second AGM following their election. Except as the Act or any applicable law may otherwise require, in the interim between an AGM or general meeting called for the election of Directors and/or the removal of one or more Directors any vacancy on the Board of Directors, may be filled by the majority vote of the remaining Directors.

9.6    A Director may be removed from office with or without cause by:

(a)     a Resolution of Members passed at a meeting of Members called for the purposes of removing the Director or for purposes including the removal of the Director; or

9.7    A Director may resign his office by giving written notice of his resignation to the Company and the resignation has effect from the date the notice is received by the Company at the office of its registered agent or from such later date as may be specified in the notice. A Director shall resign forthwith as a Director if he is, or becomes, disqualified from acting as a Director under the Act.

9.8    Subject to Regulation 9.2, the Directors may at any time appoint any person to be a Director either to fill a vacancy or as an addition to the existing Directors. Where the Directors appoint a person as Director to fill a vacancy, the term shall not exceed the term that remained when the person who has ceased to be a Director ceased to hold office.

9.9    A vacancy in relation to Directors occurs if a Director dies or otherwise ceases to hold office prior to the expiration of his term of office.

9.10  The Company shall keep a register of Directors containing:

(a)     the names and addresses of the persons who are Directors of the Company;

(b)    the date on which each person whose name is entered in the register was appointed as a Director of the Company;

(c)     the date on which each person named as a Director ceased to be a Director of the Company; and

(d)    such other information as may be prescribed by the Act.

9.11  The register of Directors may be kept in any such form as the Directors may approve, but if it is in magnetic, electronic or other data storage form, the Company must be able to produce legible evidence of its contents. Until a Resolution of Directors determining otherwise is passed, the magnetic, electronic or other data storage shall be the original register of Directors.

9.12  The Directors, or if the Shares (or depository receipts therefore) are listed or quoted on a Designated Stock Exchange, and if required by the Designated Stock Exchange, any committee thereof, may, by a Resolution of Directors, fix the emoluments of Directors with respect to services to be rendered in any capacity to the Company.

(b)    any Member owning an interest in the voting power of the Company that gives such Member a significant influence over the Company;

(c)     any Director or executive officer of the Company and any relative of such Director or executive officer; and

(d)    any person in which a substantial interest in the voting power of the Company is owned, directly or indirectly, by a person referred to in Regulations 9.14(b) and (c) or over which such a person is able to exercise significant influence,

C-14

such transaction must be approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors who do not have an interest in the transaction, such directors having been provided with access (at the Company’s expense) to the Company’s attorney or independent legal counsel, unless the disinterested directors determine that the terms of such transaction are no less favourable to the Company than those that would be available to the Company with respect to such a transaction from unaffiliated third parties.

10     POWERS OF DIRECTORS

10.1  The business and affairs of the Company shall be managed by, or under the direction or supervision of, the Directors of the Company. The Directors of the Company have all the powers necessary for managing, and for directing and supervising, the business and affairs of the Company. The Directors may pay all expenses incurred preliminary to and in connection with the incorporation of the Company and may exercise all such powers of the Company as are not by the Act or by the Memorandum or the Articles required to be exercised by the Members.

10.2  If the Company is the wholly owned subsidiary of a holding company, a Director of the Company may, when exercising powers or performing duties as a Director, act in a manner which he believes is in the best interests of the holding company even though it may not be in the best interests of the Company.

10.3  Each Director shall exercise his powers for a proper purpose and shall not act or agree to the Company acting in a manner that contravenes the Memorandum, the Articles or the Act. Each Director, in exercising his powers or performing his duties, shall act honestly and in good faith in what the Director believes to be the best interests of the Company.

10.4  Any Director which is a body corporate may appoint any individual as its duly authorised representative for the purpose of representing it at meetings of the Directors, with respect to the signing of consents or otherwise.

10.5  The continuing Directors may act notwithstanding any vacancy in their body.

10.6   The Directors may by Resolution of Directors exercise all the powers of the Company to incur indebtedness, liabilities or obligations and to secure indebtedness, liabilities or obligations whether of the Company or of any third party.

10.7  All cheques, promissory notes, drafts, bills of exchange and other negotiable instruments and all receipts for moneys paid to the Company shall be signed, drawn, accepted, endorsed or otherwise executed, as the case may be, in such manner as shall from time to time be determined by Resolution of Directors.

10.8  Section 175 of the Act shall not apply to the Company.

11     PROCEEDINGS OF DIRECTORS

11.1  Any one Director of the Company may call a meeting of the Directors by sending a written notice to each other Director.

11.2  The Directors of the Company or any committee thereof may meet at such times and in such manner and places within or outside the British Virgin Islands as the notice calling the meeting provides.

11.3  A Director is deemed to be present at a meeting of Directors if he participates by telephone or other electronic means and all Directors participating in the meeting are able to hear each other.

11.4  A Director may by a written instrument appoint an alternate who need not be a Director, any such alternate shall be entitled to attend meetings in the absence of the Director who appointed him and to vote or consent in place of the Director until the appointment lapses or is terminated.

11.5  A Director shall be given not less than three days’ notice of meetings of Directors, but a meeting of Directors held without three days’ notice having been given to all Directors shall be valid if all the Directors entitled to vote at the meeting who do not attend waive notice of the meeting, and for this purpose the presence of a Director at a meeting shall constitute waiver by that Director. The inadvertent failure to give notice of a meeting to a Director, or the fact that a Director has not received the notice, does not invalidate the meeting.

11.6  A meeting of Directors is duly constituted for all purposes if at the commencement of the meeting there are present in person or by alternate not less than one-half of the total number of Directors, unless there are only two Directors in which case the quorum is two.

C-15

11.7  If the Company has only one Director the provisions herein contained for meetings of Directors do not apply and such sole Director has full power to represent and act for the Company in all matters as are not by the Act, the Memorandum or the Articles required to be exercised by the Members. In lieu of minutes of a meeting the sole Director shall record in writing and sign a note or memorandum of all matters requiring a Resolution of Directors. Such a note or memorandum constitutes sufficient evidence of such resolution for all purposes.

11.8  At meetings of Directors at which the Chairman of the Board is present, he shall preside as chairman of the meeting. If there is no Chairman of the Board or if the Chairman of the Board is not present, the Directors present shall choose one of their number to be chairman of the meeting. If the Directors are unable to choose a chairman for any reason, then the oldest individual Director present (and for this purpose an alternate Director shall be deemed to be the same age as the Director that he represents) shall take the chair.

11.9  An action that may be taken by the Directors or a committee of Directors at a meeting may also be taken by a Resolution of Directors or a resolution of a committee of Directors consented to in writing by all Directors or by all members of the committee, as the case may be, without the need for any notice. The consent may be in the form of counterparts each counterpart being signed by one or more Directors. If the consent is in one or more counterparts, and the counterparts bear different dates, then the resolution shall take effect on the date upon which the last Director has consented to the resolution by signed counterparts.

12     COMMITTEES

12.1  The Directors may, by Resolution of Directors, designate one or more committees, each consisting of one or more Directors, and delegate one or more of their powers, including the power to affix the Seal, to the committee.

12.2  The Directors have no power to delegate to a committee of Directors any of the following powers:

(a)     to amend the Memorandum or the Articles;

(b)    to designate committees of Directors;

(c)     to delegate powers to a committee of Directors;

(f)     to approve a plan of merger, consolidation or arrangement; or

(g)    to make a declaration of solvency or to approve a liquidation plan.

12.3  Regulations 12.2(b) and (c) do not prevent a committee of Directors, where authorised by the Resolution of Directors appointing such committee or by a subsequent Resolution of Directors, from appointing a sub-committee and delegating powers exercisable by the committee to the sub-committee.

12.4  The meetings and proceedings of each committee of Directors consisting of 2 or more Directors shall be governed mutatis mutandis by the provisions of the Articles regulating the proceedings of Directors so far as the same are not superseded by any provisions in the Resolution of Directors establishing the committee.

Such officers may consist of a Chairman of the Board of Directors, a Chief Executive Officer, a President, a Chief Financial Officer (in each case there may be more than one of such officers), one or more vice-presidents, secretaries and treasurers and such other officers as may from time to time be considered necessary or expedient. Any number of offices may be held by the same person.

13.2  The officers shall perform such duties as are prescribed at the time of their appointment subject to any modification in such duties as may be prescribed thereafter by Resolution of Directors. In the absence of any specific prescription of duties it shall be the responsibility of the Chairman of the Board (or Co-Chairman, as the case may be) to preside at meetings of Directors and Members, the Chief Executive Officer (or Co-Chief Executive Officer, as the

C-16

case may be) to manage the day to day affairs of the Company, the vice-presidents to act in order of seniority in the absence of the Chief Executive Officer (or Co-Chief Executive Officer, as the case may be) but otherwise to perform such duties as may be delegated to them by the Chief Executive Officer (or Co-Chief Executive Officer, as the case may be), the secretaries to maintain the share register, minute books and records (other than financial records) of the Company and to ensure compliance with all procedural requirements imposed on the Company by applicable law, and the treasurer to be responsible for the financial affairs of the Company.

13.3  The emoluments of all officers shall be fixed by Resolution of Directors.

13.4  The officers of the Company shall hold office until their death, resignation or removal.

An agent of the Company shall have such powers and authority of the Directors, including the power and authority to affix the Seal, as are set forth in the Articles or in the Resolution of Directors appointing the agent, except that no agent has any power or authority with respect to the matters specified in Regulation 12.1. The Resolution of Directors appointing an agent may authorise the agent to appoint one or more substitutes or delegates to exercise some or all of the powers conferred on the agent by the Company. The Directors may remove an agent appointed by the Company and may revoke or vary a power conferred on him.

14     CONFLICT OF INTERESTS

14.1  A Director of the Company shall, forthwith after becoming aware of the fact that he is interested in a transaction entered into or to be entered into by the Company, disclose the interest to all other Directors of the Company.

14.2  For the purposes of Regulation 14.1, a disclosure to all other Directors to the effect that a Director is a member, Director or officer of another named entity or has a fiduciary relationship with respect to the entity or a named individual and is to be regarded as interested in any transaction which may, after the date of the entry or disclosure, be entered into with that entity or individual, is a sufficient disclosure of interest in relation to that transaction.

14.3  Provided that the requirements of Regulation 9.14 have first been satisfied, a Director of the Company who is interested in a transaction entered into or to be entered into by the Company may:

(a)     vote on a matter relating to the transaction;

(b)    attend a meeting of Directors at which a matter relating to the transaction arises and be included among the Directors present at the meeting for the purposes of a quorum; and

(c)     sign a document on behalf of the Company, or do any other thing in his capacity as a Director, that relates to the transaction,

and, subject to compliance with the Act and these Articles shall not, by reason of his office be accountable to the Company for any benefit which he derives from such transaction and no such transaction shall be liable to be avoided on the grounds of any such interest or benefit.

(b)    is or was, at the request of the Company, serving as a Director of, or in any other capacity is or was acting for, another Enterprise.

C-17

15.2  The indemnity in Regulation 15.1 only applies if the relevant Indemnitee acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company and, in the case of criminal proceedings, the Indemnitee had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

15.3  The decision of the Directors as to whether an Indemnitee acted honestly and in good faith and with a view to the best interests of the Company and as to whether such Indemnitee had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful is, in the absence of fraud, sufficient for the purposes of the Articles, unless a question of law is involved.

15.4  The termination of any Proceedings by any judgment, order, settlement, conviction or the entering of a nolle prosequi does not, by itself, create a presumption that the relevant Indemnitee did not act honestly and in good faith and with a view to the best interests of the Company or that such Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

15.5  The Company may purchase and maintain insurance, purchase or furnish similar protection or make other arrangements including, but not limited to, providing a trust fund, letter of credit, or surety bond in relation to any Indemnitee or who at the request of the Company is or was serving as a Director, officer or liquidator of, or in any other capacity is or was acting for, another Enterprise, against any liability asserted against the person and incurred by him in that capacity, whether or not the Company has or would have had the power to indemnify him against the liability as provided in these Articles.
