Introductory Note

On August 30, 2024, INFINT Acquisition Corporation (“INFINT”) completed a series of transactions that resulted in the combination (the “Business Combination”) of INFINT with Seamless Group Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Seamless”), pursuant to the previously announced Business Combination Agreement, dated August 13, 2022, amended by an amendment dated October 20, 2022, an amendment dated November 29, 2022 and an amendment dated February 20, 2023 (the “BCA”), by and among INFINT, FINTECH Merger Sub Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company and a wholly owned subsidiary of INFINT (“Merger Sub”), and Seamless, following the approval at the extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders of INFINT held on August 6, 2024 (the “Special Meeting”). On August 30, 2024, pursuant to the BCA, and as described in greater detail in the Company’s final prospectus and definitive proxy statement, which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 12, 2024 (the “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”), Merger Sub merged with and into Seamless, with Seamless surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of INFINT, and INFINT changed its name to Currenc Group Inc. (“New Seamless”). As consideration for the Business Combination, New Seamless issued to Seamless shareholders an aggregate of 40,000,000 ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 (the “Ordinary Shares”) of New Seamless (the “Exchange Consideration”). In addition, New Seamless issued 400,000 commitment shares to the PIPE investor (as described below) and an aggregate of 200,000 shares to vendors in connection with the Closing, issued promissory notes for approximately $5.7 million to EF Hutton LLC, approximately $3.2 million to Greenberg Traurig LLP, and $603,623 to INFINT Capital LLC, and entered into a $1.75 million PIPE Offering, as set forth below.

Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this Current Report on Form 8-K have the same meaning as set forth in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus.

Simultaneous with the closing of the Business Combination, New Seamless also completed a series of private financings, issuing a Convertible Note for $1.94 million, 400,000 commitment shares, and warrants to purchase 136,110 Ordinary Shares in a private placement to a PIPE investor (the “PIPE Offering”), which raised $1.75 million in net proceeds.

In connection with the Special Meeting, INFINT shareholders holding 4,652,105 of INFINT’s Class A ordinary shares (the “Public Shares”) (after giving effect to redemption reversal requests) exercised their right to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in INFINT’s trust account (the “Trust Account”).

As used herein, “Lock-Up Period” means the period commencing on the date of the Closing and ending on the earlier of: (i) six months after the Closing and (ii) the date after the Closing on which New Seamless consummates a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction with an unaffiliated third party that results in all of New Seamless’ shareholders having the right to exchange their New Seamless Class A ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

Except with the written consent of New Seamless, the Purchaser shall not own more than 4.99% of the Ordinary Shares of New Seamless in issue from time to time (the “Ownership Limit”). In addition, the Note will not be convertible to the extent that such issuance of shares, together with any issuance of shares upon the exercise of Warrants, would require shareholder approval under Nasdaq rules, until and unless such shareholder approval is obtained.

The Warrants shall have anti-dilution protection on the price with respect to future equity offerings of New Seamless priced at or above $2.00 per share and full anti-dilution protection on price and quantity with respect to future equity offerings of New Seamless priced below $2.00 per share.

In addition, the Warrants will not be exercisable to the extent that such issuance of shares together with any issuance of shares upon the conversion of the Note, would require shareholder approval under Nasdaq rules, until and unless such shareholder approval is obtained.

9	Treasury Shares

9.1	The Directors may, prior to the purchase, redemption or surrender of any Share, determine that such Share shall be held as a Treasury Share.

9.2	The Directors may determine to cancel a Treasury Share or transfer a Treasury Share on such terms as they think proper (including, without limitation, for nil consideration).

10	Variation of Rights of Shares

10.1

If at any time the share capital of the Company is divided into different classes of Shares, all or any of the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the Shares of that class) may, whether or not the Company is being wound up, be varied without the consent of the holders of the issued Shares of that class where such variation is considered by the Directors not to have a material adverse effect upon such rights; otherwise, any such variation shall be made only with the consent in writing of the holders of not less than two thirds of the issued Shares of that class, or with the approval of a resolution passed by a majority of not less than two thirds of the votes cast at a separate meeting of the holders of the Shares of that class. For the avoidance of doubt, the Directors reserve the right, notwithstanding that any such variation may not have a material adverse effect, to obtain consent from the holders of Shares of the relevant class. To any such meeting all the provisions of the Articles relating to general meetings shall apply mutatis mutandis, except that the necessary quorum shall be one person holding or representing by proxy at least one third of the issued Shares of the class and that any holder of Shares of the class present in person or by proxy may demand a poll.

10.2	For the purposes of a separate class meeting, the Directors may treat two or more or all the classes of Shares as forming one class of Shares if the Directors consider that such class of Shares would be affected in the same way by the proposals under consideration, but in any other case shall treat them as separate classes of Shares.

10.3	The rights conferred upon the holders of the Shares of any class issued with preferred or other rights shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue of the Shares of that class, be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further Shares ranking pari passu therewith.

11	Commission on Sale of Shares

	The Company may, in so far as the Statute permits, pay a commission to any person in consideration of that person subscribing or agreeing to subscribe (whether absolutely or conditionally) or procuring or agreeing to procure subscriptions (whether absolutely or conditionally) for any Shares. Such commissions may be satisfied by the payment of cash and/or the issue of fully or partly paid-up Shares. The Company may also on any issue of Shares pay such brokerage as may be lawful.

12	Non Recognition of Trusts

	The Company shall not be bound by or compelled to recognise in any way (even when notified) any equitable, contingent, future or partial interest in any Share, or (except only as is otherwise provided by the Articles or the Statute) any other rights in respect of any Share other than an absolute right to the entirety thereof in the holder.

13	Lien on Shares

13.1	The Company shall have a first and paramount lien on all Shares (whether fully paid-up or not) registered in the name of a Member (whether solely or jointly with others) for all debts, liabilities or engagements to or with the Company (whether presently payable or not) by such Member or their estate, either alone or jointly with any other person, whether a Member or not, but the Directors may at any time declare any Share to be wholly or in part exempt from the provisions of this Article. The registration of a transfer of any such Share shall operate as a waiver of the Company’s lien thereon. The Company’s lien on a Share shall also extend to any amount payable in respect of that Share.

13.2	The Company may sell, in such manner as the Directors think fit, any Shares on which the Company has a lien, if a sum in respect of which the lien exists is presently payable, and is not paid within fourteen clear days after notice has been received or deemed to have been received by the holder of the Shares, or to the person entitled to it in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of the holder, demanding payment and stating that if the notice is not complied with the Shares may be sold.

13.3	To give effect to any such sale the Directors may authorise any person to execute an instrument of transfer of the Shares sold to, or in accordance with the directions of, the purchaser. The purchaser or their nominee shall be registered as the holder of the Shares comprised in any such transfer, and they shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, nor shall their title to the Shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the sale or the exercise of the Company’s power of sale under the Articles.

13.4	The net proceeds of such sale after payment of costs, shall be applied in payment of such part of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is presently payable and any balance shall (subject to a like lien for sums not presently payable as existed upon the Shares before the sale) be paid to the person entitled to the Shares at the date of the sale.

14	Call on Shares

14.1

Subject to the terms of the allotment and issue of any Shares, the Directors may make calls upon the Members in respect of any monies unpaid on their Shares (whether in respect of par value or premium), and each Member shall (subject to receiving at least fourteen clear days’ notice specifying the time or times of payment) pay to the Company at the time or times so specified the amount called on the Shares. A call may be revoked or postponed, in whole or in part, as the Directors may determine. A call may be required to be paid by instalments. A person upon whom a call is made shall remain liable for calls made upon them notwithstanding the subsequent transfer of the Shares in respect of which the call was made.

14.2	A call shall be deemed to have been made at the time when the resolution of the Directors authorising such call was passed.

14.3	The joint holders of a Share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all calls in respect thereof.

14.4	If a call remains unpaid after it has become due and payable, the person from whom it is due shall pay interest on the amount unpaid from the day it became due and payable until it is paid at such rate as the Directors may determine (and in addition all expenses that have been incurred by the Company by reason of such non-payment), but the Directors may waive payment of the interest or expenses wholly or in part.

14.5	An amount payable in respect of a Share on issue or allotment or at any fixed date, whether on account of the par value of the Share or premium or otherwise, shall be deemed to be a call and if it is not paid all the provisions of the Articles shall apply as if that amount had become due and payable by virtue of a call.

14.6	The Directors may issue Shares with different terms as to the amount and times of payment of calls, or the interest to be paid.

14.7	The Directors may, if they think fit, receive an amount from any Member willing to advance all or any part of the monies uncalled and unpaid upon any Shares held by that Member, and may (until the amount would otherwise become payable) pay interest at such rate as may be agreed upon between the Directors and the Member paying such amount in advance.

14.8	No such amount paid in advance of calls shall entitle the Member paying such amount to any portion of a Dividend or other distribution payable in respect of any period prior to the date upon which such amount would, but for such payment, become payable.

15	Forfeiture of Shares

15.1	If a call or instalment of a call remains unpaid after it has become due and payable the Directors may give to the person from whom it is due not less than fourteen clear days’ notice requiring payment of the amount unpaid together with any interest which may have accrued and any expenses incurred by the Company by reason of such non-payment. The notice shall specify where payment is to be made and shall state that if the notice is not complied with the Shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited.

15.2	If the notice is not complied with, any Share in respect of which it was given may, before the payment required by the notice has been made, be forfeited by a resolution of the Directors. Such forfeiture shall include all Dividends, other distributions or other monies payable in respect of the forfeited Share and not paid before the forfeiture.

15.3	A forfeited Share may be sold, re-allotted or otherwise disposed of on such terms and in such manner as the Directors think fit and at any time before a sale, re-allotment or disposition the forfeiture may be cancelled on such terms as the Directors think fit. Where for the purposes of its disposal a forfeited Share is to be transferred to any person the Directors may authorise some person to execute an instrument of transfer of the Share in favour of that person.

15.4	A person any of whose Shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a Member in respect of them and shall surrender to the Company for cancellation the certificate for the Shares forfeited and shall remain liable to pay to the Company all monies which at the date of forfeiture were payable by that person to the Company in respect of those Shares together with interest at such rate as the Directors may determine, but that person’s liability shall cease if and when the Company shall have received payment in full of all monies due and payable by them in respect of those Shares.

15.5	A certificate in writing under the hand of one Director or officer of the Company that a Share has been forfeited on a specified date shall be conclusive evidence of the facts stated in it as against all persons claiming to be entitled to the Share. The certificate shall (subject to the execution of an instrument of transfer) constitute a good title to the Share and the person to whom the Share is sold or otherwise disposed of shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, if any, nor shall their title to the Share be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the forfeiture, sale or disposal of the Share.

15.6	The provisions of the Articles as to forfeiture shall apply in the case of non-payment of any sum which, by the terms of issue of a Share, becomes payable at a fixed time, whether on account of the par value of the Share or by way of premium as if it had been payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.

16	Transmission of Shares

16.1	If a Member dies the survivor or survivors (where they were a joint holder) or their legal personal representatives (where they were a sole holder), shall be the only persons recognised by the Company as having any title to the deceased Member’s Shares. The estate of a deceased Member is not thereby released from any liability in respect of any Share, for which the Member was a joint or sole holder.

16.2	Any person becoming entitled to a Share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution of a Member (or in any other way than by transfer) may, upon such evidence being produced as may be required by the Directors, elect, by a notice in writing sent by that person to the Company, either to become the holder of such Share or to have some person nominated by them registered as the holder of such Share. If they elect to have another person registered as the holder of such Share they shall sign an instrument of transfer of that Share to that person. The Directors shall, in either case, have the same right to decline or suspend registration as they would have had in the case of a transfer of the Share by the relevant Member before their death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution, as the case may be.

16.3

A person becoming entitled to a Share by reason of the death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution of a Member (or in any other case than by transfer) shall be entitled to the same Dividends, other distributions and other advantages to which they would be entitled if they were the holder of such Share. However, they shall not, before becoming a Member in respect of a Share, be entitled in respect of it to exercise any right conferred by membership in relation to general meetings of the Company and the Directors may at any time give notice requiring any such person to elect either to be registered or to have some person nominated by them registered as the holder of the Share (but the Directors shall, in either case, have the same right to decline or suspend registration as they would have had in the case of a transfer of the Share by the relevant Member before their death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution or any other case than by transfer, as the case may be). If the notice is not complied with within ninety days of being received or deemed to be received (as determined pursuant to the Articles) the Directors may thereafter withhold payment of all Dividends, other distributions, bonuses or other monies payable in respect of the Share until the requirements of the notice have been complied with.

17	Amendments of Memorandum and Articles of Association and Alteration of Capital

17.1	The Company may by Ordinary Resolution:

	(a)	increase its share capital by such sum as the Ordinary Resolution shall prescribe and with such rights, priorities and privileges annexed thereto, as the Company in general meeting may determine;

	(b)	consolidate and divide all or any of its share capital into Shares of larger amount than its existing Shares;

	(c)	convert all or any of its paid-up Shares into stock, and reconvert that stock into paid-up Shares of any denomination;

	(d)	by subdivision of its existing Shares or any of them divide the whole or any part of its share capital into Shares of smaller amount than is fixed by the Memorandum or into Shares without par value; and

	(e)	cancel any Shares that at the date of the passing of the Ordinary Resolution have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person and diminish the amount of its share capital by the amount of the Shares so cancelled.

17.2	All new Shares created in accordance with the provisions of the preceding Article shall be subject to the same provisions of the Articles with reference to the payment of calls, liens, transfer, transmission, forfeiture and otherwise as the Shares in the original share capital.

17.3	Subject to the provisions of the Statute and the provisions of the Articles as regards the matters to be dealt with by Ordinary Resolution, the Company may by Special Resolution:

	(a)	change its name;

	(b)	alter or add to the Articles;

	(c)	alter or add to the Memorandum with respect to any objects, powers or other matters specified therein; and

	(d)	reduce its share capital or any capital redemption reserve fund.

Offices and Places of Business

Subject to the provisions of the Statute, the Company may by resolution of the Directors change the location of its Registered Office. The Company may, in addition to its Registered Office, maintain such other offices or places of business as the Directors determine.

19	General Meetings

19.1	All general meetings other than annual general meetings shall be called extraordinary general meetings.

19.2	The Company may, but shall not (unless required by the Statute) be obliged to, in each year hold a general meeting as its annual general meeting, and shall specify the meeting as such in the notices calling it. Any annual general meeting shall be held at such time and place as the Directors shall appoint and if no other time and place is prescribed by them, it shall be held at the Registered Office on the second Wednesday in December of each year at ten o’clock in the morning. At these meetings the report of the Directors (if any) shall be presented.

19.3	The Directors may call general meetings, and they shall on a Members’ requisition forthwith proceed to convene an extraordinary general meeting of the Company.

19.4	A Members’ requisition is a requisition of Members holding at the date of deposit of the requisition not less than ten per cent. in par value of the issued Shares which as at that date carry the right to vote at general meetings of the Company.

19.5	The Members’ requisition must state the objects of the meeting and must be signed by the requisitionists and deposited at the Registered Office, and may consist of several documents in like form each signed by one or more requisitionists.

19.6

If there are no Directors as at the date of the deposit of the Members’ requisition or if the Directors do not within twenty-one days from the date of the deposit of the Members’ requisition duly proceed to convene a general meeting to be held within a further twenty-one days, the requisitionists, or any of them representing more than one-half of the total voting rights of all of the requisitionists, may themselves convene a general meeting, but any meeting so convened shall be held no later than the day which falls three months after the expiration of the said twenty-one day period.

19.7	A general meeting convened as aforesaid by requisitionists shall be convened in the same manner as nearly as possible as that in which general meetings are to be convened by Directors.

19.8	The Directors may make Communication Facilities available for a specific general meeting or all general meetings of the Company so that members and other participants may attend and participate at such general meetings by means of such Communication Facilities.

19.9	The notice of any general meeting at which Communication Facilities will be utilised must disclose the Communication Facilities that will be utilised, including the procedures to be followed by any member or other participant of the general meeting who wishes to utilise such Communication Facilities for the purpose of attending, participating and voting at such meeting.

20	Notice of General Meetings

20.1

At least fourteen clear days’ notice shall be given of any general meeting. Every notice shall specify the place, the day and the hour of the meeting and the general nature of the business to be conducted at the general meeting and shall be given in the manner hereinafter mentioned or in such other manner if any as may be prescribed by the Company, provided that a general meeting of the Company shall, whether or not the notice specified in this Article has been given and whether or not the provisions of the Articles regarding general meetings have been complied with, be deemed to have been duly convened if it is so agreed:

	(a)	in the case of an annual general meeting, by all of the Members entitled to attend and vote at the meeting; and

	(b)	in the case of an extraordinary general meeting, by a majority in number of the Members having a right to attend and vote at the meeting, together holding not less than ninety five per cent. in par value of the Shares giving that right.

20.2	The accidental omission to give notice of a general meeting to, or the non-receipt of notice of a general meeting by, any person entitled to receive such notice shall not invalidate the proceedings of that general meeting.

21	Proceedings at General Meetings

21.1	No business shall be transacted at any general meeting unless a quorum is Present. Except as otherwise provided in these Articles, a quorum shall be the presence, in person or by proxy, of one or more Persons holding at least one third of the issued Shares which confer the right to attend and vote thereat.

21.2	A person may participate at a general meeting by conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all the persons participating in the meeting can communicate with each other. Participation by a person in a general meeting in this manner is treated as presence in person at that meeting.

21.3

A resolution (including a Special Resolution) in writing (in one or more counterparts) signed by or on behalf of all of the Members for the time being entitled to receive notice of and to attend and vote at general meetings (or, being corporations or other non-natural persons, signed by their duly authorised representatives) shall be as valid and effective as if the resolution had been passed at a general meeting of the Company duly convened and held.

21.4	If a quorum is not Present within half an hour from the time appointed for the meeting to commence or if during such a meeting a quorum ceases to be Present, the meeting, if convened upon a Members’ requisition, shall be dissolved and in any other case it shall stand adjourned to the same day in the next week at the same time and/or place or to such other day, time and/or place as the Directors may determine, and if at the adjourned meeting a quorum is not Present within half an hour from the time appointed for the meeting to commence, the Members Present shall be a quorum.

21.5	The Directors may, at any time prior to the time appointed for the meeting to commence, appoint any person to act as chairperson of a general meeting of the Company or, if the Directors do not make any such appointment, the chairperson, if any, of the board of Directors shall preside as chairperson at such general meeting. If there is no such chairperson, or if the chairperson shall not be Present within fifteen minutes after the time appointed for the meeting to commence, or is unwilling to act, the Directors Present shall elect one of their number to be chairperson of the meeting.

21.6	If no Director is willing to act as chairperson or if no Director is Present within fifteen minutes after the time appointed for the meeting to commence, the Members present shall choose one of their number to be chairperson of the meeting.

21.7	The chairperson of any general meeting shall be entitled to attend and participate at such general meeting by means of Communication Facilities, and to act as the chairperson, in which event, if the Communication Facilities are interrupted or fail for any reason to enable the chairperson to hear and be heard by all other Persons attending and participating at the meeting, then the other Directors Present at the meeting shall choose another Director Present to act as chairperson of the meeting for the remainder of the meeting; provided that (i) if no other Director is Present at the meeting, or (ii) if all the Directors Present decline to take the chair, then the meeting shall be automatically adjourned to the same day in the next week and at such time and place as shall be decided by the board of Directors.

21.8	The chairperson may, with the consent of a meeting at which a quorum is Present (and shall if so directed by the meeting) adjourn the meeting from time to time and from place to place, but no business shall be transacted at any adjourned meeting other than the business left unfinished at the meeting from which the adjournment took place.

21.9	When a general meeting is adjourned for thirty days or more, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given as in the case of an original meeting. Otherwise it shall not be necessary to give any such notice of an adjourned meeting.

21.10	A resolution put to the vote of the meeting shall be decided on a show of hands unless before, or on the declaration of the result of, the show of hands, the chairperson demands a poll, or any other Member or Members collectively Present and holding at least ten per cent. in par value of the Shares giving a right to attend and vote at the meeting demand a poll.

21.11	Unless a poll is duly demanded and the demand is not withdrawn a declaration by the chairperson that a resolution has been carried or carried unanimously, or by a particular majority, or lost or not carried by a particular majority, an entry to that effect in the minutes of the proceedings of the meeting shall be conclusive evidence of that fact without proof of the number or proportion of the votes recorded in favour of or against such resolution.

21.12	The demand for a poll may be withdrawn.

21.13	Except on a poll demanded on the election of a chairperson or on a question of adjournment, a poll shall be taken as the chairperson directs, and the result of the poll shall be deemed to be the resolution of the general meeting at which the poll was demanded.

21.14	A poll demanded on the election of a chairperson or on a question of adjournment shall be taken forthwith. A poll demanded on any other question shall be taken at such date, time and place as the chairperson of the general meeting directs, and any business other than that upon which a poll has been demanded or is contingent thereon may proceed pending the taking of the poll.

21.15

In the case of an equality of votes, whether on a show of hands or on a poll, the chairperson shall be entitled to a second or casting vote.

22	Votes of Members

22.1	Subject to any rights or restrictions attached to any Shares, on a show of hands every Member who is Present, shall have one vote and on a poll every Member Present in any such manner shall have one vote for every Share of which they are the holder.

22.2	In the case of joint holders the vote of the senior holder who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy (or, in the case of a corporation or other non-natural person, by its duly authorised representative or proxy), shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders, and seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names of the holders stand in the Register of Members.

22.3	A Member of unsound mind, or in respect of whom an order has been made by any court, having jurisdiction in lunacy, may vote, whether on a show of hands or on a poll, by their committee, receiver, curator bonis, or other person on such Member’s behalf appointed by that court, and any such committee, receiver, curator bonis or other person may vote by proxy.

22.4	No person shall be entitled to vote at any general meeting unless they are registered as a Member on the record date for such meeting nor unless all calls or other monies then payable by them in respect of Shares have been paid.

22.5	No objection shall be raised as to the qualification of any voter except at the general meeting or adjourned general meeting at which the vote objected to is given or tendered and every vote not disallowed at the meeting shall be valid. Any objection made in due time in accordance with this Article shall be referred to the chairperson whose decision shall be final and conclusive.

22.6	On a poll or on a show of hands votes may be cast either personally or by proxy (or in the case of a corporation or other non-natural person by its duly authorised representative or proxy). A Member may appoint more than one proxy or the same proxy under one or more instruments to attend and vote at a meeting. Where a Member appoints more than one proxy the instrument of proxy shall state which proxy is entitled to vote on a show of hands and shall specify the number of Shares in respect of which each proxy is entitled to exercise the related votes.

22.7	On a poll, a Member holding more than one Share need not cast the votes in respect of their Shares in the same way on any resolution and therefore may vote a Share or some or all such Shares either for or against a resolution and/or abstain from voting a Share or some or all of the Shares and, subject to the terms of the instrument appointing the proxy, a proxy appointed under one or more instruments may vote a Share or some or all of the Shares in respect of which they are appointed either for or against a resolution and/or abstain from voting a Share or some or all of the Shares in respect of which they are appointed.

23	Proxies

23.1	The instrument appointing a proxy shall be in writing and shall be executed under the hand of the appointor or of their attorney duly authorised in writing, or, if the appointor is a corporation or other non natural person, under the hand of its duly authorised representative. A proxy need not be a Member.

23.2	The Directors may, in the notice convening any meeting or adjourned meeting, or in an instrument of proxy sent out by the Company, specify the manner by which the instrument appointing a proxy shall be deposited and the place and the time (being not later than the time appointed for the commencement of the meeting or adjourned meeting to which the proxy relates) at which the instrument appointing a proxy shall be deposited. In the absence of any such direction from the Directors in the notice convening any meeting or adjourned meeting or in an instrument of proxy sent out by the Company, the instrument appointing a proxy shall be deposited physically at the Registered Office not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for the meeting or adjourned meeting to commence at which the person named in the instrument proposes to vote.

23.3

The chairperson may in any event at their discretion declare that an instrument of proxy shall be deemed to have been duly deposited. An instrument of proxy that is not deposited in the manner permitted, or which has not been declared to have been duly deposited by the chairperson, shall be invalid.

23.4	The instrument appointing a proxy may be in any usual or common form (or such other form as the Directors may approve) and may be expressed to be for a particular meeting or any adjournment thereof or generally until revoked. An instrument appointing a proxy shall be deemed to include the power to demand or join or concur in demanding a poll.

23.5	Votes given in accordance with the terms of an instrument of proxy shall be valid notwithstanding the previous death or insanity of the principal or revocation of the proxy or of the authority under which the proxy was executed, or the transfer of the Share in respect of which the proxy is given unless notice in writing of such death, insanity, revocation or transfer was received by the Company at the Registered Office before the commencement of the general meeting, or adjourned meeting at which it is sought to use the proxy.

24	Corporate Members

24.1	Any corporation or other non-natural person which is a Member may in accordance with its constitutional documents, or in the absence of such provision by resolution of its directors or other governing body, authorise such person as it thinks fit to act as its representative at any meeting of the Company or of any class of Members, and the person so authorised shall be entitled to exercise the same powers on behalf of the corporation which they represent as the corporation could exercise if it were an individual Member.

24.2	If a clearing house (or its nominee(s)) or depositary (or its nominee(s)) is a Member it may authorise such person or persons as it thinks fit to act as its representative(s) at any meeting of the Company or of any class of Members, provided that, if more than one person is so authorised, the authorisation shall specify the number and class of Shares in respect of which each such person is so authorised. The person so authorised will be deemed to have been duly authorised without the need to produce any documents of title, notarised authorisation and/or further evidence to substantiate that that person is so authorised. A person so authorised pursuant to this Article shall be entitled to exercise the same rights and powers on behalf of the clearing house (or its nominee(s)) or depositary (or its nominee(s)) which that person represents as that clearing house (or its nominee(s)) or depositary (or its nominee(s)) could exercise as if such person were an individual Member holding the number and class of Shares specified in such authorisation, including, where a show of hands is allowed, the right to vote individually on a show of hands, notwithstanding any contrary provision contained in the Articles.

25	Shares that May Not be Voted

	Shares in the Company that are beneficially owned by the Company shall not be voted, directly or indirectly, at any meeting and shall not be counted in determining the total number of outstanding Shares at any given time.

26	Directors

26.1	There shall be a board of Directors consisting of not less than one person (exclusive of alternate Directors) provided however that the Company may by Ordinary Resolution increase or reduce the limits in the number of Directors.

26.2

The Directors shall be divided into three classes: Class I, Class II and Class III. The number of Directors in each class shall be as nearly equal as possible. Upon the adoption of the Articles, the existing Directors shall by resolution classify themselves as Class I, Class II or Class III Directors. The Class I Directors shall stand appointed for a term expiring at the Company’s first annual general meeting after the adoption of the Articles, the Class II Directors shall stand appointed for a term expiring at the Company’s second annual general meeting after the adoption of the Articles and the Class III Directors shall stand appointed for a term expiring at the Company’s third annual general meeting after the adoption of the Articles. Commencing at the Company’s first annual general meeting, and at each annual general meeting thereafter, Directors appointed to succeed those Directors whose terms expire shall be appointed for a term of office to expire at the third succeeding annual general meeting after their appointment. Except as the Statute or other applicable law may otherwise require, in the interim between annual general meetings or extraordinary general meetings called for the appointment of Directors and/or the removal of one or more Directors and the filling of any vacancy in that connection, additional Directors and any vacancies in the board of Directors, including unfilled vacancies resulting from the removal of Directors for cause, may be filled by the vote of a majority of the remaining Directors then in office, although less than a quorum (as defined in the Articles), or by the sole remaining Director. All Directors shall hold office until the expiration of their respective terms of office and until their successors shall have been appointed and qualified. A Director appointed to fill a vacancy resulting from the death, resignation or removal of a Director shall serve for the remainder of the full term of the Director whose death, resignation or removal shall have created such vacancy and until their successor shall have been appointed and qualified.

27	Powers of Directors

27.1	Subject to the provisions of the Statute, the Memorandum and the Articles and to any directions given by Special Resolution, the business of the Company shall be managed by the Directors who may exercise all the powers of the Company. No alteration of the Memorandum or Articles and no such direction shall invalidate any prior act of the Directors which would have been valid if that alteration had not been made or that direction had not been given. A duly convened meeting of Directors at which a quorum is present may exercise all powers exercisable by the Directors.

27.2	All cheques, promissory notes, drafts, bills of exchange and other negotiable or transferable instruments and all receipts for monies paid to the Company shall be signed, drawn, accepted, endorsed or otherwise executed as the case may be in such manner as the Directors shall determine by resolution.

27.3	The Directors on behalf of the Company may pay a gratuity or pension or allowance on retirement to any Director who has held any other salaried office or place of profit with the Company or to their surviving spouse, civil partner or dependents and may make contributions to any fund and pay premiums for the purchase or provision of any such gratuity, pension or allowance.

27.4

The Directors may exercise all the powers of the Company to borrow money and to mortgage or charge its undertaking, property and assets (present and future) and uncalled capital or any part thereof and to issue debentures, debenture stock, mortgages, bonds and other such securities whether outright or as security for any debt, liability or obligation of the Company or of any third party.

28	Appointment and Removal of Directors

28.1	The Company may by Ordinary Resolution appoint any person to be a Director or may by Ordinary Resolution remove any Director.

28.2	The Directors may appoint any person to be a Director, either to fill a vacancy or as an additional Director provided that the appointment does not cause the number of Directors to exceed any number fixed by or in accordance with the Articles as the maximum number of Directors.

29	Vacation of Office of Director

	The office of a Director shall be vacated if:

	(a)	the Director gives notice in writing to the Company that they resign the office of Director; or

	(b)	the Director is absent (for the avoidance of doubt, without being represented by proxy or an alternate Director appointed by them) from three consecutive meetings of the board of Directors without special leave of absence from the Directors, and the Directors pass a resolution that they have by reason of such absence vacated office; or

	(c)	the Director dies, becomes bankrupt or makes any arrangement or composition with their creditors generally; or

	(d)	the Director is found to be or becomes of unsound mind; or

	(e)	the Director is removed from office by notice in writing served upon such Director signed by not less than three-fourths in number (or, if that is not a round number, the nearest lower round number) of the Directors then in office (including such Director).

30	Proceedings of Directors

30.1

The quorum for the transaction of the business of the Directors may be fixed by the Directors, and unless so fixed shall be two if there are two or more Directors, and shall be one if there is only one Director. A person who holds office as an alternate Director shall, if their appointor is not present, be counted in the quorum. A Director who also acts as an alternate Director shall, if their appointor is not present, count twice towards the quorum.

30.2	Subject to the provisions of the Articles, the Directors may regulate their proceedings as they think fit. Questions arising at any meeting shall be decided by a majority of votes. In the case of an equality of votes, the chairperson shall have a second or casting vote. A Director who is also an alternate Director shall be entitled in the absence of their appointor to a separate vote on behalf of their appointor in addition to their own vote.

30.3	A person may participate in a meeting of the Directors or any committee of Directors by conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all the persons participating in the meeting can communicate with each other at the same time. Participation by a person in a meeting in this manner is treated as presence in person at that meeting. Unless otherwise determined by the Directors the meeting shall be deemed to be held at the place where the chairperson is located at the start of the meeting.

30.4	Unless required otherwise by the Rules of the Designated Stock Exchange, a resolution in writing (in one or more counterparts) signed by all the Directors or all the members of a committee of the Directors or, in the case of a resolution in writing relating to the removal of any Director or the vacation of office by any Director, all of the Directors other than the Director who is the subject of such resolution (an alternate Director being entitled to sign such a resolution on behalf of their appointor and if such alternate Director is also a Director, being entitled to sign such resolution both on behalf of their appointer and in their capacity as a Director) shall be as valid and effectual as if it had been passed at a meeting of the Directors, or committee of Directors as the case may be, duly convened and held.

30.5	A Director or alternate Director may, or other officer of the Company on the direction of a Director or alternate Director shall, call a meeting of the Directors by at least two days’ notice in writing to every Director and alternate Director which notice shall set forth the general nature of the business to be considered unless notice is waived by all the Directors (or their alternates) either at, before or after the meeting is held. To any such notice of a meeting of the Directors all the provisions of the Articles relating to the giving of notices by the Company to the Members shall apply mutatis mutandis.

30.6	The continuing Directors (or a sole continuing Director, as the case may be) may act notwithstanding any vacancy in their body, but if and so long as their number is reduced below the number fixed by or pursuant to the Articles as the necessary quorum of Directors the continuing Directors or Director may act for the purpose of increasing the number of Directors to be equal to such fixed number, or of summoning a general meeting of the Company, but for no other purpose.

30.7

The Directors may elect a chairperson of their board and determine the period for which they are to hold office; but if no such chairperson is elected, or if at any meeting the chairperson is not present within five minutes after the time appointed for the meeting to commence, the Directors present may choose one of their number to be chairperson of the meeting.

30.8	All acts done by any meeting of the Directors or of a committee of the Directors (including any person acting as an alternate Director) shall, notwithstanding that it is afterwards discovered that there was some defect in the appointment of any Director or alternate Director, and/or that they or any of them were disqualified, and/or had vacated their office and/or were not entitled to vote, be as valid as if every such person had been duly appointed and/or not disqualified to be a Director or alternate Director and/or had not vacated their office and/or had been entitled to vote, as the case may be.

30.9	A Director but not an alternate Director may be represented at any meetings of the board of Directors by a proxy appointed in writing by that Director. The proxy shall count towards the quorum and the vote of the proxy shall for all purposes be deemed to be that of the appointing Director.

31	Presumption of Assent

	A Director or alternate Director who is present at a meeting of the board of Directors at which action on any Company matter is taken shall be presumed to have assented to the action taken unless their dissent shall be entered in the minutes of the meeting or unless they shall file their written dissent from such action with the person acting as the chairperson or secretary of the meeting before the adjournment thereof or shall forward such dissent by registered post to such person immediately after the adjournment of the meeting. Such right to dissent shall not apply to a Director or alternate Director who voted in favour of such action.

32	Directors’ Interests

32.1	A Director or alternate Director may hold any other office or place of profit under the Company (other than the office of Auditor) in conjunction with their office of Director for such period and on such terms as to remuneration and otherwise as the Directors may determine.

32.2	A Director or alternate Director may act on their own or by, through or on behalf of their firm in a professional capacity for the Company and they or their firm shall be entitled to remuneration for professional services as if they were not a Director or alternate Director.

32.3	A Director or alternate Director may be or become a director or other officer of or otherwise interested in any company promoted by the Company or in which the Company may be interested as a shareholder, a contracting party or otherwise, and no such Director or alternate Director shall be accountable to the Company for any remuneration or other benefits received by them as a director or officer of, or from their interest in, such other company.

32.4	No person shall be disqualified from the office of Director or alternate Director or prevented by such office from contracting with the Company, either as vendor, purchaser or otherwise, nor shall any such contract or any contract or transaction entered into by or on behalf of the Company in which any Director or alternate Director shall be in any way interested be or be liable to be avoided, nor shall any Director or alternate Director so contracting or being so interested be liable to account to the Company for any profit realised by or arising in connection with any such contract or transaction by reason of such Director or alternate Director holding office or of the fiduciary relationship thereby established. A Director (or their alternate Director in their absence) shall be entitled to vote on, and be counted in the quorum in relation to, any resolution of the Directors in respect of any contract or transaction in which they are interested, provided that the relevant Director (or alternate Director) has disclosed the nature and extent of his or her interest in any such contract or transaction to the board of Directors prior to any vote thereon.

32.5

A general notice that a Director or alternate Director is a shareholder, director, officer or employee of any specified firm or company and is to be regarded as interested in any transaction with such firm or company shall be sufficient disclosure for the purposes of voting on a resolution in respect of a contract or transaction in which they have an interest, and after such general notice it shall not be necessary to give special notice relating to any particular transaction.

Minutes

The Directors shall cause minutes to be made in books kept for the purpose of recording all appointments of officers made by the Directors, all proceedings at meetings of the Company or the holders of any class of Shares and of the Directors, and of committees of the Directors, including the names of the Directors or alternate Directors present at each meeting.

34	Delegation of Directors’ Powers

34.1	The Directors may delegate any of their powers, authorities and discretions, including the power to sub-delegate, to any committee consisting of one or more Directors. They may also delegate to any managing director or any Director holding any other executive office such of their powers, authorities and discretions as they consider desirable to be exercised by that Director, provided that an alternate Director may not act as managing director and the appointment of a managing director shall be revoked forthwith if they cease to be a Director. Any such delegation may be made subject to any conditions the Directors may impose and either collaterally with or to the exclusion of their own powers and any such delegation may be revoked or altered by the Directors. Subject to any such conditions, the proceedings of a committee of Directors shall be governed by the Articles regulating the proceedings of Directors, so far as they are capable of applying.

34.2	The Directors may establish any committees, local boards or agencies or appoint any person to be a manager or agent for managing the affairs of the Company and may appoint any person to be a member of such committees, local boards or agencies. Any such appointment may be made subject to any conditions the Directors may impose, and either collaterally with or to the exclusion of their own powers and any such appointment may be revoked or altered by the Directors. Subject to any such conditions, the proceedings of any such committee, local board or agency shall be governed by the Articles regulating the proceedings of Directors, so far as they are capable of applying.

34.3	The Directors may by power of attorney or otherwise appoint any person to be the agent of the Company on such conditions as the Directors may determine, provided that the delegation is not to the exclusion of their own powers and may be revoked by the Directors at any time.

34.4	The Directors may by power of attorney or otherwise appoint any company, firm, person or body of persons, whether nominated directly or indirectly by the Directors, to be the attorney or authorised signatory of the Company for such purpose and with such powers, authorities and discretions (not exceeding those vested in or exercisable by the Directors under the Articles) and for such period and subject to such conditions as they may think fit, and any such powers of attorney or other appointment may contain such provisions for the protection and convenience of persons dealing with any such attorneys or authorised signatories as the Directors may think fit and may also authorise any such attorney or authorised signatory to delegate all or any of the powers, authorities and discretions vested in them.

34.5	The Directors may appoint such officers of the Company (including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, any secretary) as they consider necessary on such terms, at such remuneration and to perform such duties, and subject to such provisions as to disqualification and removal as the Directors may think fit. Unless otherwise specified in the terms of their appointment an officer of the Company may be removed by resolution of the Directors or Members. An officer of the Company may vacate their office at any time if they give notice in writing to the Company that they resign their office.

35	Alternate Directors

35.1	Any Director (but not an alternate Director) may by writing appoint any other Director, or any other person willing to act, to be an alternate Director and by writing may remove from office an alternate Director so appointed by them.

35.2	An alternate Director shall be entitled to receive notice of all meetings of Directors and of all meetings of committees of Directors of which their appointor is a member, to attend and vote at every such meeting at which the Director appointing them is not personally present, to sign any written resolution of the Directors, and generally to perform all the functions of their appointor as a Director in their absence.

35.3	An alternate Director shall cease to be an alternate Director if their appointor ceases to be a Director.

35.4	Any appointment or removal of an alternate Director shall be by notice to the Company signed by the Director making or revoking the appointment or in any other manner approved by the Directors.

35.5	Subject to the provisions of the Articles, an alternate Director shall be deemed for all purposes to be a Director and shall alone be responsible for their own acts and defaults and shall not be deemed to be the agent of the Director appointing them.

No Minimum Shareholding

The Company in general meeting may fix a minimum shareholding required to be held by a Director, but unless and until such a shareholding qualification is fixed a Director is not required to hold Shares.

37	Remuneration of Directors

37.1	The remuneration to be paid to the Directors, if any, shall be such remuneration as the Directors shall determine. The Directors shall also be entitled to be paid all travelling, hotel and other expenses properly incurred by them in connection with their attendance at meetings of Directors or committees of Directors, or general meetings of the Company, or separate meetings of the holders of any class of Shares or debentures of the Company, or otherwise in connection with the business of the Company or the discharge of their duties as a Director, or to receive a fixed allowance in respect thereof as may be determined by the Directors, or a combination partly of one such method and partly the other.

37.2	The Directors may by resolution approve additional remuneration to any Director for any services which in the opinion of the Directors go beyond that Director’s ordinary routine work as a Director. Any fees paid to a Director who is also counsel, attorney or solicitor to the Company, or otherwise serves it in a professional capacity shall be in addition to their remuneration as a Director.

Seal

38.1	The Company may, if the Directors so determine, have a Seal. The Seal shall only be used by the authority of the Directors or of a committee of the Directors authorised by the Directors. Every instrument to which the Seal has been affixed shall be signed by at least one person who shall be either a Director or some officer of the Company or other person appointed by the Directors for the purpose.

38.2	The Company may have for use in any place or places outside the Cayman Islands a duplicate Seal or Seals each of which shall be a facsimile of the common Seal of the Company and, if the Directors so determine, with the addition on its face of the name of every place where it is to be used.

38.3	A Director or officer, representative or attorney of the Company may without further authority of the Directors affix the Seal over their signature alone to any document of the Company required to be authenticated by them under seal or to be filed with the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands or elsewhere wheresoever.

39	Dividends, Distributions and Reserve

39.1

Subject to the Statute and this Article and except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to any Shares, the Directors may resolve to pay Dividends and other distributions on Shares in issue and authorise payment of the Dividends or other distributions out of the funds of the Company lawfully available therefor. A Dividend shall be deemed to be an interim Dividend unless the terms of the resolution pursuant to which the Directors resolve to pay such Dividend specifically state that such Dividend shall be a final Dividend. No Dividend or other distribution shall be paid except out of the realised or unrealised profits of the Company, out of the share premium account or as otherwise permitted by law.

39.2	Except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to any Shares, all Dividends and other distributions shall be paid according to the par value of the Shares that a Member holds. If any Share is issued on terms providing that it shall rank for Dividend as from a particular date, that Share shall rank for Dividend accordingly.

39.3	The Directors may deduct from any Dividend or other distribution payable to any Member all sums of money (if any) then payable by the Member to the Company on account of calls or otherwise.

39.4	The Directors may resolve that any Dividend or other distribution be paid wholly or partly by the distribution of specific assets and in particular (but without limitation) by the distribution of shares, debentures, or securities of any other company or in any one or more of such ways and where any difficulty arises in regard to such distribution, the Directors may settle the same as they think expedient and in particular may issue fractional Shares and may fix the value for distribution of such specific assets or any part thereof and may determine that cash payments shall be made to any Members upon the basis of the value so fixed in order to adjust the rights of all Members and may vest any such specific assets in trustees in such manner as may seem expedient to the Directors.

39.5	Except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to any Shares, Dividends and other distributions may be paid in any currency. The Directors may determine the basis of conversion for any currency conversions that may be required and how any costs involved are to be met.

39.6	The Directors may, before resolving to pay any Dividend or other distribution, set aside such sums as they think proper as a reserve or reserves which shall, at the discretion of the Directors, be applicable for any purpose of the Company and pending such application may, at the discretion of the Directors, be employed in the business of the Company.

39.7	Any Dividend, other distribution, interest or other monies payable in cash in respect of Shares may be paid by wire transfer to the holder or by cheque or warrant sent through the post directed to the registered address of the holder or, in the case of joint holders, to the registered address of the holder who is first named on the Register of Members or to such person and to such address as such holder or joint holders may in writing direct. Every such cheque or warrant shall be made payable to the order of the person to whom it is sent. Any one of two or more joint holders may give effectual receipts for any Dividends, other distributions, bonuses, or other monies payable in respect of the Share held by them as joint holders.

39.8	No Dividend or other distribution shall bear interest against the Company.

39.9	Any Dividend or other distribution which cannot be paid to a Member and/or which remains unclaimed after six months from the date on which such Dividend or other distribution becomes payable may, in the discretion of the Directors, be paid into a separate account in the Company’s name, provided that the Company shall not be constituted as a trustee in respect of that account and the Dividend or other distribution shall remain as a debt due to the Member. Any Dividend or other distribution which remains unclaimed after a period of six years from the date on which such Dividend or other distribution becomes payable shall be forfeited and shall revert to the Company.

Capitalisation

The Directors may at any time capitalise any sum standing to the credit of any of the Company’s reserve accounts or funds (including the share premium account and capital redemption reserve fund) or any sum standing to the credit of the profit and loss account or otherwise available for distribution; appropriate such sum to Members in the proportions in which such sum would have been divisible amongst such Members had the same been a distribution of profits by way of Dividend or other distribution; and apply such sum on their behalf in paying up in full unissued Shares for allotment and distribution credited as fully paid-up to and amongst them in the proportion aforesaid. In such event the Directors shall do all acts and things required to give effect to such capitalisation, with full power given to the Directors to make such provisions as they think fit in the case of Shares becoming distributable in fractions (including provisions whereby the benefit of fractional entitlements accrue to the Company rather than to the Members concerned). The Directors may authorise any person to enter on behalf of all of the Members interested into an agreement with the Company providing for such capitalisation and matters incidental or relating thereto and any agreement made under such authority shall be effective and binding on all such Members and the Company.

41	Untraceable Members

41.1	The Company shall be entitled to sell any Shares of a Member or the Shares to which a person is entitled by virtue of transmission on death or bankruptcy or operation of law if and provided that:

	(a)	all cheques or warrants, not being less than three in number, for any sums payable in cash to the holder of such Shares have remained uncashed for a period of 12 years;

	(b)	the Company has not during that time or before the expiry of the three-month period referred to Article 41.1(d) received any indication of the whereabouts or existence of the Member or person entitled to such Shares by death, bankruptcy or operation of law;

	(c)	during the 12-year period, at least three Dividends in respect of the Shares in question have become payable and no Dividend during that period has been claimed by the Member; and

	(d)	upon expiry of the 12-year period, the Company has caused an advertisement to be published in the newspapers or by electronic communication in the manner in which notices may be served by the Company by Electronic Means as provided in the Articles, given notice of its intention to sell such Shares, and a period of three months has elapsed since such advertisement and the Designated Stock Exchange has been notified of such intention.

The net proceeds of any such sale shall belong to the Company and upon receipt by the Company of such net proceeds it shall become indebted to the former Member for an amount equal to such net proceeds.

41.2

To give effect to any sale contemplated by Article 41.1, the Company may appoint any person to execute as transferor an instrument of transfer of the said Shares and such other documents as are necessary to effect the transfer, and such documents shall be as effective as if they had been executed by the registered holder of or person entitled by transmission to such Shares and the title of the transferee shall not be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings relating thereto. The net proceeds of sale shall belong to the Company which shall be obliged to account to the former Member or other person previously entitled as aforesaid for an amount equal to such proceeds and shall enter the name of such former Member or other person in the books of the Company as a creditor for such amount. No trust shall be created in respect of the debt, no interest shall be payable in respect of the same and the Company shall not be required to account for any money earned on the net proceeds, which may be employed in the business of the Company or invested in such investments (other than shares or other securities in or of the Company or its holding company if any) or as the Directors may from time to time think fit.

42	Books of Account

42.1	The Directors shall cause proper books of account (including, where applicable, material underlying documentation including contracts and invoices) to be kept with respect to all sums of money received and expended by the Company and the matters in respect of which the receipt or expenditure takes place, all sales and purchases of goods by the Company and the assets and liabilities of the Company. Such books of account must be retained for a minimum period of five years from the date on which they are prepared. Proper books shall not be deemed to be kept if there are not kept such books of account as are necessary to give a true and fair view of the state of the Company’s affairs and to explain its transactions.

42.2	The Directors shall determine whether and to what extent and at what times and places and under what conditions or regulations the accounts and books of the Company or any of them shall be open to the inspection of Members not being Directors and no Member (not being a Director) shall have any right of inspecting any account or book or document of the Company except as conferred by Statute or authorised by the Directors or by the Company in general meeting.

42.3

For as long as the Company is admitted to trading on a Designated Stock Exchange, the accounts relating to the Company’s affairs shall be audited subject to the requirements of applicable law and the Rules of the Designated Stock Exchange. The accounting principles shall be determined by the Directors by reference to the requirements (if any) of the Designated Stock Exchange, applicable law, regulation or the requirements of any regulatory authority of competent jurisdiction. This Article shall not apply if the Company is no longer admitted to trading on a Designated Stock Exchange.

42.4	The Directors may cause to be prepared and to be laid before the Company in general meeting profit and loss accounts, balance sheets, group accounts (if any) and such other reports and accounts as may be required by law.

Audit

43.1	The Directors may appoint an Auditor of the Company who shall hold office on such terms as the Directors determine.

43.2	Without prejudice to the freedom of the Directors to establish any other committee, for so long as the Shares (or depositary receipts therefor) are admitted to trading on the Designated Stock Exchange, the Directors shall establish and maintain an Audit Committee as a committee of the Directors, the composition and responsibilities of which shall comply with the charter of the Audit Committee, the Rules of the Designated Stock Exchange, the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and all other applicable laws and regulations.

43.3	Every Auditor of the Company shall have a right of access at all times to the books and accounts and vouchers of the Company and shall be entitled to require from the Directors and officers of the Company such information and explanation as may be necessary for the performance of the duties of the Auditor.

43.4	Auditors shall, if so required by the Directors, make a report on the accounts of the Company during their tenure of office at the next annual general meeting following their appointment in the case of a company which is registered with the Registrar of Companies as an ordinary company, and at the next extraordinary general meeting following their appointment in the case of a company which is registered with the Registrar of Companies as an exempted company, and at any other time during their term of office, upon request of the Directors or any general meeting of the Members.

44	Notices

44.1

Except as otherwise provided in the Articles, any notice or document may be served by the Company on any Member either personally or by sending it through the post in a prepaid letter addressed to such Member at their registered address as appearing in the Register of Members or, to the extent permitted by the Rules of the Designated Stock Exchange and all applicable laws and regulations, by Electronic Means by transmitting it to any electronic number or address supplied by the Member to the Company, or by placing it on the Company’s website provided that the Company has obtained either (a) the Member’s prior express positive confirmation in writing; or (b) the Member’s deemed consent in the manner specified in the Rules of the Designated Stock Exchange to receive or otherwise have made available to such Member notices and documents to be given or issued to them by the Company by such Electronic Means, or (in the case of notice) by advertisement published in the manner prescribed in the Rules of the Designated Stock Exchange. In the case of joint holders of a Share, all notices shall be given to that holder for the time being whose name stands first in the Register of Members and notice so given shall be sufficient notice to all the joint holders.

44.2	Where a notice is sent by courier, service of the notice shall be deemed to be effected by delivery of the notice to a courier company, and shall be deemed to have been received on the third day (not including Saturdays or Sundays or public holidays) following the day on which the notice was delivered to the courier. Where a notice is sent by post, service of the notice shall be deemed to be effected by properly addressing, pre paying and posting a letter containing the notice, and shall be deemed to have been received on the fifth day (not including Saturdays or Sundays or public holidays in the Cayman Islands) following the day on which the notice was posted. Where a notice is sent by cable, telex or fax, service of the notice shall be deemed to be effected by properly addressing and sending such notice and shall be deemed to have been received on the same day that it was transmitted. Where a notice is given by e-mail service shall be deemed to be effected by transmitting the e-mail to the e-mail address provided by the intended recipient and shall be deemed to have been received on the same day that it was sent, and it shall not be necessary for the receipt of the e-mail to be acknowledged by the recipient.

44.3	A notice may be given by the Company to the person or persons which the Company has been advised are entitled to a Share or Shares in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of a Member in the same manner as other notices which are required to be given under the Articles and shall be addressed to them by name, or by the title of representatives of the deceased, or trustee of the bankrupt, or by any like description at the address supplied for that purpose by the persons claiming to be so entitled, or at the option of the Company by giving the notice in any manner in which the same might have been given if the death or bankruptcy had not occurred.

44.4	Notice of every general meeting shall be given in any manner authorised by the Articles to every holder of Shares carrying an entitlement to receive such notice on the record date for such meeting except that in the case of joint holders the notice shall be sufficient if given to the joint holder first named in the Register of Members and every person upon whom the ownership of a Share devolves because they are a legal personal representative or a trustee in bankruptcy of a Member where the Member but for their death or bankruptcy would be entitled to receive notice of the meeting, and no other person shall be entitled to receive notices of general meetings.

45	Winding Up

45.1	If the Company shall be wound up the liquidator shall apply the assets of the Company in satisfaction of creditors’ claims in such manner and order as such liquidator thinks fit. Subject to the rights attaching to any Shares, in a winding up:

	(a)	if the assets available for distribution amongst the Members shall be insufficient to repay the whole of the Company’s issued share capital, such assets shall be distributed so that, as nearly as may be, the losses shall be borne by the Members in proportion to the par value of the Shares held by them; or

	(b)	if the assets available for distribution amongst the Members shall be more than sufficient to repay the whole of the Company’s issued share capital at the commencement of the winding up, the surplus shall be distributed amongst the Members in proportion to the par value of the Shares held by them at the commencement of the winding up subject to a deduction from those Shares in respect of which there are monies due, of all monies payable to the Company for unpaid calls or otherwise.

45.2

If the Company shall be wound up the liquidator may, subject to the rights attaching to any Shares and with the approval of a Special Resolution of the Company and any other approval required by the Statute, divide amongst the Members in kind the whole or any part of the assets of the Company (whether such assets shall consist of property of the same kind or not) and may for that purpose value any assets and determine how the division shall be carried out as between the Members or different classes of Members. The liquidator may, with the like approval, vest the whole or any part of such assets in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the Members as the liquidator, with the like approval, shall think fit, but so that no Member shall be compelled to accept any asset upon which there is a liability.

46	Indemnity and Insurance

46.1	Every Director and officer of the Company (which for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include auditors of the Company), together with every former Director and former officer of the Company (each an “Indemnified Person”) shall be indemnified out of the assets of the Company against any liability, action, proceeding, claim, demand, costs, damages or expenses, including legal expenses, whatsoever which they or any of them may incur as a result of any act or failure to act in carrying out their functions other than such liability (if any) that they may incur by reason of their own actual fraud or wilful default. No Indemnified Person shall be liable to the Company for any loss or damage incurred by the Company as a result (whether direct or indirect) of the carrying out of their functions unless that liability arises through the actual fraud or wilful default of such Indemnified Person. No person shall be found to have committed actual fraud or wilful default under this Article unless or until a court of competent jurisdiction shall have made a finding to that effect.

46.2	The Company shall advance to each Indemnified Person reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with the defence of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation involving such Indemnified Person for which indemnity will or could be sought. In connection with any advance of any expenses hereunder, the Indemnified Person shall execute an undertaking to repay the advanced amount to the Company if it shall be determined by final judgment or other final adjudication that such Indemnified Person was not entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article. If it shall be determined by a final judgment or other final adjudication that such Indemnified Person was not entitled to indemnification with respect to such judgment, costs or expenses, then such party shall not be indemnified with respect to such judgment, costs or expenses and any advancement shall be returned to the Company (without interest) by the Indemnified Person.

46.3	The Directors, on behalf of the Company, may purchase and maintain insurance for the benefit of any Director or other officer of the Company against any liability which, by virtue of any rule of law, would otherwise attach to such person in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust of which such person may be guilty in relation to the Company.

Financial Year

Unless the Directors otherwise prescribe, the financial year of the Company shall end on 31st December in each year and, following the year of incorporation, shall begin on 1st January in each year.

Transfer by Way of Continuation

If the Company is exempted as defined in the Statute, it shall, subject to the provisions of the Statute and with the approval of a Special Resolution, have the power to register by way of continuation as a body corporate under the laws of any jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands and to be deregistered in the Cayman Islands.

Mergers and Consolidations

The Company shall have the power to merge or consolidate with one or more other constituent companies (as defined in the Statute) upon such terms as the Directors may determine and (to the extent required by the Statute) with the approval of a Special Resolution.

50	Exclusive Forum

50.1

Unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the courts of the Cayman Islands shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any claim or dispute arising out of or in connection with the Memorandum, the Articles or otherwise related in any way to each Member’s shareholding in the Company, including but not limited to:

	(a)	any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company;

	(b)	any action asserting a claim of breach of any fiduciary or other duty owed by any current or former Director, officer or other employee of the Company to the Company or the Members;

	(c)	any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the Statute, the Memorandum or the Articles; or

	(d)	any action asserting a claim against the Company governed by the “Internal Affairs Doctrine” (as such concept is recognised under the laws of the United States of America).

50.2	Each Member irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Cayman Islands over all such claims or disputes.

50.3	Without prejudice to any other rights or remedies that the Company may have, each Member acknowledges that damages alone would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the selection of the courts of the Cayman Islands as exclusive forum and that accordingly the Company shall be entitled, without proof of special damages, to the remedies of injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief for any threatened or actual breach of the selection of the courts of the Cayman Islands as exclusive forum.

50.4	This Article shall not apply to any action or suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any claim for which the federal district courts of the United States of America are, as a matter of the laws of the United States, the sole and exclusive forum for determination of such a claim.

Section 3. Administration.

The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Board may designate one or more directors of the Company as a subcommittee who may act for the Committee if necessary to satisfy the requirements of this Section. The Committee may issue rules and regulations for administration of the Plan.

(b)

Subject to the terms of the Plan and applicable law, the Committee (or its delegate) shall have full power and authority to: (i) designate Participants; (ii) determine the type or types of Awards (including Replacement Awards) to be granted to each Participant under the Plan; (iii) determine the number of Shares to be covered by (or with respect to which payments, rights or other matters are to be calculated in connection with) Awards; (iv) determine the terms and conditions of any Award; (v) determine whether, to what extent and under what circumstances Awards may be settled or exercised in cash, Shares, other Awards, other property, net settlement (including broker-assisted cashless exercise) or any combination thereof, or cancelled, forfeited or suspended, and the method or methods by which Awards may be settled, exercised, cancelled, forfeited or suspended; (vi) determine whether, to what extent and under what circumstances cash, Shares, other Awards, other property and other amounts payable with respect to an Award under the Plan shall be deferred either automatically or at the election of the holder thereof or of the Committee; (vii) interpret and administer the Plan and any instrument or agreement relating to, or Award made under, the Plan; (viii) establish, amend, suspend or waive such rules and regulations and appoint such agents as it shall deem appropriate for the proper administration of the Plan; and (ix) make any other determination and take any other action that the Committee deems necessary or desirable for the administration of the Plan.

(c)

All decisions of the Committee shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties, including the Company, its shareholders and Participants and any Beneficiaries thereof.

Section 4. Shares Available for Awards.

(a)

Subject to adjustment as provided in this Section 4, the maximum number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan shall not exceed 4,636,091. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary but subject to adjustment as provided in this Section 4 (i) the maximum aggregate number of Shares that may be delivered under the Plan as a result of the exercise of the Incentive Stock Options shall not exceed 4,636,091 and (ii) the sum of the value (determined as of the grant date in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, or any successor thereto) of Awards granted to a Participant who is an Eligible Director during any fiscal year of the Company may not exceed $500,000 in the aggregate.

(b)

Shares underlying Replacement Awards and Shares remaining available for grant under a plan of an acquired company or of a company with which the Company combines (whether by way of amalgamation, merger, sale and purchase of shares or other securities or otherwise), appropriately adjusted to reflect the acquisition or combination transaction, shall not reduce the number of Shares remaining available for grant hereunder.

(c)

Any Shares subject to an Award that expires, is cancelled, forfeited or otherwise terminates without the issuance of such Shares, including any Shares subject to such Award or award to the extent that such Award or award is settled without the issuance of Shares, shall again be, or shall become, available for issuance under the Plan.

A Participant shall not have any rights as a shareholder of the Company (including as to voting and dividends) until Shares are actually issued to the Participant following entry upon the Register of Members of the Company.

-2-

Section 5. Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units.

The Committee is authorized to grant Awards of Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”) to Participants with the following terms and conditions and with such additional terms and conditions, in either case not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee shall determine.

(a)

The applicable Award Agreement shall specify different vesting schedules for different batches of Restricted Shares or RSUs to be awarded, which may be service- and/or performance-based, and, with respect to different batches of Restricted Shares or RSUs, the respective delivery schedules (which may include deferred delivery later than the vesting date) and whether the Award of Restricted Shares or RSUs is entitled to dividends or dividend equivalents, voting rights or any other rights.

(b)

Restricted Shares and RSUs shall be subject to such restrictions as the Committee may impose (including any limitation on the right to vote a Restricted Share or the Share underlying a RSU or the right to receive any dividend, dividend equivalent or other right), which restrictions may lapse separately or in combination at such time or times, in such installments or otherwise, as the Committee may deem appropriate. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Award relates to Shares on which dividends are declared during the period that the Award is outstanding, the Award shall not provide for the payment of such dividend (or a dividend equivalent) to the Participant prior to the time at which such Award, or applicable portion thereof, becomes nonforfeitable, unless required by applicable law, or otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement.

(c)

Any Restricted Shares and RSUs granted under the Plan may be evidenced in such manner as the Committee may deem appropriate, including registration on the Register of Members of the Company or issuance of a share certificate or certificates. In the event that any share certificate is issued in respect of Restricted Shares or RSUs granted under the Plan, such certificate shall be registered in the name of the Participant and shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions and restrictions applicable to such Restricted Shares or RSUs.

Section 6. Options.

The Committee is authorized to grant Options to Participants with the following terms and conditions and with such additional terms and conditions, in either case not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee shall determine. The Committee is also authorized to grant Options with terms and conditions that conform to tax qualification rules in applicable jurisdictions.

All Options granted under the Plan shall be Nonqualified Options unless the applicable Award Agreement expressly states that the Option is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option. Incentive Stock Options shall be granted only to Eligible Persons who are employees of the Company and its Affiliates, and no Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to any Eligible Person who is ineligible to receive an Incentive Stock Option under the Code.

-3-

No Option shall be treated as an Incentive Stock Option unless the Plan has been approved by the stockholders of the Company in a manner intended to comply with the stockholder approval requirements of Code Section 422(b)(1); provided that any Option intended to be an Incentive Stock Option shall not fail to be effective solely on account of a failure to obtain such approval, but rather such Option shall be treated as a Nonqualified Option unless and until such approval is obtained. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the terms and conditions of such grant shall be subject to and comply with such rules as may be prescribed by Code Section 422. If for any reason an Option intended to be an Incentive Stock Option (or any portion thereof) shall not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, then, to the extent of such non-qualification, such Option or portion thereof shall be regarded as a Nonqualified Option appropriately granted under the Plan.

(a)

The applicable Award Agreement shall specify the vesting schedule, which may be service- and/or performance-based.

(b)

The exercise price per Share under an Option shall be determined by the Committee; provided, however, that the exercise price equals or exceeds the greater of the Fair Market Value of such Share and the nominal value of such share, and provided further that in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an employee who, at the time of the grant of such Option, owns shares representing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of shares of the Company or any related corporation (as determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.422-2(f)), the exercise price per share shall not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per share on the date of grant.

(c)

The term of each Option shall be fixed by the Committee but shall not exceed 10 years from the date of grant of such Option; provided, however, that the Option Period shall not exceed five years from the date of grant in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Participant who on the date of grant owns shares representing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of shares of the Company or any related corporation (as determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.422-2(f)).

(d)

The Committee shall determine the time or times at which an Option may be exercised in whole or in part.

(e)

The Committee shall determine the methods by which, and the forms in which payment of the exercise price with respect thereto may be made or deemed to have been made, including cash, Shares, other Awards, other property, net settlement (including broker-assisted cashless exercise) or any combination thereof, having a Fair Market Value on the exercise date equal to the relevant exercise price.

(f)

With respect to any Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan: (i) the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date the Incentive Stock Option is granted) of the Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan and all other option plans of the Company (and any parent corporation or subsidiary corporation of the Company, as those terms are defined in Code Sections 424(e) and (f), respectively) that become exercisable for the first time by the Participant during any calendar year shall not (to the extent required by the Code at the time of the grant) exceed $100,000; and (ii) if Shares acquired by exercise of an Incentive Stock Option are disposed of within two years following the date the Incentive Stock Option is granted or one year following the transfer of such Shares to the Participant upon exercise, the Participant shall, promptly following such disposition, notify the Company in writing of the date and terms of such disposition and provide such other information regarding the disposition as the Committee may reasonably require.

Section 7. Share Appreciation Rights.

The Committee is authorized to grant SARs to Participants with the following terms and conditions and with such additional terms and conditions, in either case not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee shall determine.

(a)

SARs may be granted under the Plan to Participants either alone (“freestanding”) or in addition to other Awards granted under the Plan (“tandem”).

-4-

(b)

The exercise price per Share under a SAR shall be determined by the Committee.

(c)

The term of each SAR shall be fixed by the Committee but shall not exceed 10 years from the date of grant of such SAR.

(d)

The Committee shall determine the time or times at which a SAR may be exercised or settled in whole or in part.

(e)

Upon the exercise of a SAR, the Company shall pay to the Participant an amount equal to the number of Shares subject to the SAR multiplied by the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of one Share on the exercise date over the exercise price of such SAR. The Company shall pay such excess in cash, in Shares valued at Fair Market Value, or any combination thereof, as determined by the Committee.

Section 8. Performance Awards.

The Committee is authorized to grant, in addition to Restricted Shares, RSUs and Options, which are performance-based, other Performance Awards to Participants with the following terms and conditions and with such additional terms and conditions, in either case not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee shall determine.

(a)

Performance Awards may be denominated as a cash amount, a number of Shares or a combination thereof and are Awards which may be earned upon achievement or satisfaction of performance conditions specified by the Committee. In addition, the Committee may specify that any other Award shall constitute a Performance Award by conditioning the right of a Participant to exercise the Award or have it settled, and the timing thereof, upon achievement or satisfaction of such performance conditions as may be specified by the Committee. The Committee may use such business criteria and other measures of performance as it may deem appropriate in establishing any performance conditions. Subject to the terms of the Plan, the Performance Goals to be achieved during any Performance Period, the length of any Performance Period, the amount of any Performance Award granted and the amount of any payment or transfer to be made pursuant to any Performance Award shall be determined by the Committee. If the Performance Award relates to Shares on which dividends are declared during the Performance Period, the Performance Award shall not provide for the payment of such dividend (or dividend equivalent) to the Participant prior to the time at which such Performance Award, or the applicable portion thereof, is earned.

(b)

Performance Goals may be measured on an absolute (e.g., plan or budget) or relative basis, and may be established on a corporate-wide basis, with respect to one or more business units, divisions, Subsidiaries or business segments, or on an individual basis. Relative performance may be measured against a group of peer companies, a financial market index or other acceptable objective and quantifiable indices. If the Committee determines that a change in the business, operations, corporate structure or capital structure of the Company, or the manner in which the Company conducts its business, or other events or circumstances render the Performance Goals unsuitable, the Committee may modify the minimum acceptable level of achievement, in whole or in part, as the Committee deems appropriate and equitable. Performance Goals shall be adjusted for material items not originally contemplated in establishing the performance target for items resulting from discontinued operations, extraordinary gains and losses, the effect of changes in accounting standards or principles, acquisitions or divestitures, changes in tax rules or regulations, capital transactions, restructuring, nonrecurring gains or losses or unusual items. Performance Goals may vary from Performance Award to Performance A ward, and from Participant to Participant, and may be established on a stand-alone bas is, in tandem or in the alternative. The Committee shall have the power to impose such other restrictions on Awards subject to this Section 8(b) as it may deem necessary or appropriate to ensure that such Awards satisfy all requirements of any applicable law, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations.

-5-

(c)

Settlement of Performance Awards shall be in cash, Shares, other Awards, other property, net settlement or any combination thereof, as determined in the discretion of the Committee. Performance Awards will be settled only after the end of the relevant Performance Period. The Committee may, in its discretion, increase or reduce the amount of a settlement otherwise to be made in connection with a Performance Award.

Section 9. Other Share-Based Awards.

The Committee is authorized, subject to limitations under applicable law, to grant to Participants such other Awards that may be denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on, or related to, Shares or factors that may influence the value of Shares, including convertible or exchangeable debt securities, other rights convertible or exchangeable into Shares, acquisition rights for Shares, Awards with value and payment contingent upon performance of the Company or business units thereof or any other factors designated by the Committee. The Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of such Awards.

Section 10. Other Cash-Based Awards.

Section 11. Effect of Leave of Absence or Termination of Service on Awards.

(a)

The Committee may provide, by rule or regulation or in any Award Agreement, or may determine in any individual case, the circumstances in which, and the extent to which, an Award may continue to vest in the event of any unpaid leave of absence in excess of 60 days or as otherwise provided for by the Committee; provided, however, that in the absence of such determination, vesting of Awards shall be tolled during any such unpaid leave (unless otherwise required by applicable laws).

(b)

The Committee may provide, by rule or regulation or in any Award Agreement, or may determine in any individual case, the circumstances in which, and the extent to which, an Award may be exercised, settled, vested, paid or forfeited in the event of a Participant’s Termination of Service prior to the vesting, exercise or settlement of such Award or the end of a Performance Period.

Section 12. Change in Control.

(a)

In the event of a Change in Control, the Committee may provide that an Award shall vest and become immediately exercisable with respect to all or any portion of the Shares subject to such Options or SARs, the restricted period shall expire immediately with respect to all or any portion of the outstanding shares of Restricted Shares or RSUs and all or any portion of any Other Share-based Awards or Other Cash-Based Awards shall be vested.

-6-

(b)

With respect to Performance Awards, in the event of a Change in Control, all incomplete Performance Periods with respect to such Awards in effect on the date the Change in Control occurs shall end on the date of such change and the Committee shall either (1)(i)(x) determine the extent to which Performance Goals with respect to such Performance Period have been met based upon such audited or unaudited financial information then available as it deems relevant and (y) cause to be paid to the applicable Participant partial or full Awards with respect to Performance Goals for each such Performance Period based upon the Committee’s determination of the degree of attainment of Performance Goals or, (ii) assume that the applicable “target levels” of performance have been attained, or (2) use such other basis determined by the Committee.

(c)

The Committee may provide that, in the event of a Change in Control, the Participant may retain any tag-along rights, or any rights to sell the Awards under any Company repurchase arrangements.

Section 13. Repurchase Rights.

The Company reserves the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase Awards and Shares underlying Awards held by a Participant in the event that the Participant ceases to be an Eligible Person.

Section 14. Lock-Up.

To the extent required by the underwriters, and except (1) as otherwise approved by the Committee, or (2) pursuant to this Section 14, Shares acquired by a Participant pursuant to the issuance, vesting, exercise, or settlement of any Award granted hereunder may not be sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of prior to such period designated by the underwriters (the “Lock-Up Period”). The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Shares subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of such Lock-Up Period.

Section 15. General Provisions Applicable to Awards.

(a)

Awards shall be granted for no cash consideration or for such minimal cash consideration as may be required by applicable law.

(b)

Awards may, in the discretion of the Committee, be granted either alone or in addition to or in tandem with any other Award or any award granted under any other plan of the Company. Awards granted in addition to or in tandem with other Awards, or in addition to or in tandem with awards granted under any other plan of the Company, may be granted either at the same time as or at a different time from the grant of such other Awards or awards.

(c)

Subject to the terms of the Plan and Section 20, payments or transfers to be made by the Company upon the grant, exercise or settlement of an Award may be made in the form of cash, Shares, other Awards, other property, net settlement or any combination thereof, as determined by the Committee in its discretion, and may be made in a single payment or transfer, in installments or on a deferred basis, in each case in accordance with rules and procedures established by the Committee. Such rules and procedures may include provisions for the payment or crediting of reasonable interest on installment or deferred payments or the grant or crediting of dividend equivalents in respect of installment or deferred payments.

(d)

Except as may be permitted by the Committee or as specifically provided in an Award Agreement, (i) no Award and no right under any Award shall be assignable, alienable, saleable, pledgeable or otherwise transferable by a Participant otherwise than by will, the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to Section l5(e) and (ii) during a Participant’s lifetime, each Award, and each right under any Award, shall be exercisable only by the Participant or, if permissible under applicable law, by the Participant’s guardian or legal representative. The provisions of this Section l5(d) shall not apply to any Award that has been fully exercised or settled, as the case may be, and shall not preclude forfeiture of an Award in accordance with the terms thereof.

-7-

(e)

A Participant may designate a Beneficiary or change a previous Beneficiary designation at such times prescribed by the Committee by using forms and following procedures approved or accepted by the Committee for that purpose.

(f)

All certificates, if any, for Shares, and/or other securities delivered under the Plan pursuant to any Award or the exercise thereof shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the Plan or the rules, regulations and other requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), any stock market or exchange upon which such Shares or other securities are then quoted, traded or listed, and any applicable securities laws, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.

(g)

Without limiting the generality of Section l5(h) or Section 15(i), the Committee may impose restrictions on any Award with respect to non-competition, non-solicitation, confidentiality and other restrictive covenants, or requirements to comply with minimum share ownership requirements, as it deems necessary or appropriate in its sole discretion.

(h)

The Committee may specify in an Award Agreement that the Participant’s rights, payments and benefits with respect to an Award shall be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, in addition to any otherwise applicable vesting or performance conditions of an Award. Such events may include a Termination of Service with or without Cause (and, in the case of any Cause that is resulting from an indictment or other non-final determination, the Committee may provide for such Award to be held in escrow or abeyance until a final resolution of the matters related to such event occurs, at which time the Award shall either be reduced, cancelled or forfeited (as provided in such Award Agreement) or remain in effect, depending on the outcome), violation of material policies, breach of non-competition, non-solicitation, unlawful behaviors, confidentiality or other restrictive covenants that may apply to the Participant, or other conduct by the Participant that is detrimental to the business or reputation of the Company and/or its Affiliates.

(i)

Rights, payments and benefits under any Award shall be subject to repayment to or recoupment (“clawback”) by the Company for unlawful behavior and in accordance with such non-competition and nonsolicitation policies and procedures as the Committee or Board may adopt from time to time and those applicable to Participants under applicable employment agreements, including policies and procedures to implement applicable law, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations.

-8-

Section 16. Amendments and Termination.

(a)

Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law and unless otherwise expressly provided in an Award Agreement or in the Plan, the Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time; provided, however, that no such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation or termination shall be made without (i) shareholder approval, if such approval is required by applicable law or the rules of the stock market or exchange, if any, on which the Shares are principally quoted or traded or (ii) the consent of the affected Participant, if such action would materially adversely affect the rights of such Participant under any outstanding Award, except to the extent any such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance or termination is made to cause the Plan to comply with applicable law, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations, or to impose any recoupment provisions on any Awards in accordance with Section 15(i). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, the Committee may amend the Plan or any Award Agreement in such manner as may be necessary or desirable to enable the Plan or such Award Agreement to achieve its stated purposes in any jurisdiction in a tax-efficient manner and in compliance with local laws, rules and regulations to recognize differences in local law, tax policy or custom. The Committee also may impose conditions on the exercise or vesting of Awards in order to minimize the Company’s obligation with respect to tax equalization for Participants on assignments outside their home country.

(b)

The Committee may waive any conditions or rights under, amend any terms of, or amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate any Award theretofore granted, prospectively or retroactively, without the consent of any relevant Participant or holder or Beneficiary of an Award; provided, however, that, subject to Section 4(c) and Section 15(c), no such action shall materially adversely affect the rights of any affected Participant or holder or Beneficiary under any Award theretofore granted under the Plan, except to the extent any such action is made to cause the Plan to comply with applicable law, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations, or to impose any recoupment provisions on any Awards in accordance with Section l5(i). Notwithstanding the foregoing, without stockholder approval, except as otherwise permitted elsewhere in the Plan, (i) no amendment or modification may reduce the exercise price of any Option or SAR, (ii) the Committee may not cancel any outstanding Option or SAR where the Fair Market Value of the Shares underlying such Option or SAR is less than its exercise price and replace it with a new Option or SAR, another Award or cash and (iii) the Committee may not take any other action that is considered a “repricing” for purposes of the stockholder approval rules of the applicable securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system on which the Shares are listed or quoted.

(c)

Except as provided in Section 8(b), the Committee shall be authorized to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards in recognition of events (including the events described in Section 4(c)) affecting the Company, or the financial statements of the Company, or of changes in applicable law, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations, whenever the Committee determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan.

(d)

The Committee may correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or any Award in the manner and to the extent it shall deem desirable to carry the Plan into effect.

Section 17. Miscellaneous.

(a)

No employee, Participant or other person shall have any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment of employees, Participants or holders or Beneficiaries of Awards under the Plan. The terms and conditions of Awards need not be the same with respect to each recipient, including as necessary or desirable to recognize differences in local law, tax policy or custom. Any Award granted under the Plan shall be a one-time Award that does not constitute a promise of future grants. The Company, in its sole discretion, maintains the right to make available future grants under the Plan.

-9-

(b)

No payment pursuant to the Plan shall be taken into account in determining any benefits under any severance, pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare or other benefit plan of the Company or any Affiliate, except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in writing in such other plan or an agreement thereunder.

(c)

The grant of an Award shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to be retained in the employ of, or to continue to provide services to, the Company or any Affiliate. Further, the Company or the applicable Affiliate may at any time dismiss a Participant, free from any liability, or any claim under the Plan, unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or in any Award Agreement or in any other agreement binding the parties. The receipt of any Award under the Plan is not intended to confer any rights on the receiving Participant except as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement.

(d)

Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Company from adopting or continuing in effect other or additional compensation arrangements, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

(e)

The Company shall be authorized to withhold from any Award granted or any payment due or transfer made under any Award or under the Plan or from any compensation or other amount owing to a Participant the amount (in cash, Shares, other Awards, other property, net settlement or any combination thereof) of applicable withholding taxes due in respect of an Award, its exercise or settlement or any payment or transfer under such Award or under the Plan and to take such other action (including providing for elective payment of such amounts in cash or Shares by the Participant) as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such taxes.

(f)

If any provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or as to any person or Award, or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable laws, or if it cannot be so construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the intent of the Plan or the Award Agreement, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, person or Award, and the remainder of the Plan and any such Award Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

(g)

No Shares shall be issued pursuant to the Plan in the event the Company determines that: (i) it and the Participant have not taken all actions required to register the Shares under the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws and there is no exemption from such registration under applicable law; (ii) an applicable listing requirement of any stock exchange on which the Company is listed has not been satisfied; or (iii) another applicable provision of law has not been satisfied.

(h)

Each Award Agreement shall provide that no Shares shall be purchased or sold thereunder unless and until (a) any then applicable requirements of any state or federal laws and regulatory agencies in any applicable country have been fully complied with to the satisfaction of the Company and its counsel and (b) if required to do so by the Company, the Participant has executed and delivered to the Company a letter of investment intent in such form and containing such provisions as the Committee may require. The Company shall use reasonable efforts to seek to obtain from each regulatory com miss ion or agency having juris diction over the Plan such authority as may be required to grant Awards and to issue and sell Shares upon exercise of the Awards; provided, however, that this undertaking shall not require the Company to register und er the Securities Act the Plan, any Award or any Shares issued or issuable pursuant to any such Award. If, after reasonable efforts, the Company is unable to obtain from any such regulatory commission or agency the authority which counsel for the Company deems necessary for the lawful issuance and sale of Shares under the Plan, the Company shall be relieved from any liability for failure to issue and sell Shares upon exercise of such Awards unless and until such authority is obtained.

Neither the Plan nor any Award shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and a Participant or any other person. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company pursuant to an Award, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.

(j)

No fractional Shares shall be issued pursuant to the Plan or any Award, and the Committee shall determine whether cash or other securities shall be paid or transferred in lieu of any fractional Shares, or whether such fractional Shares or any rights thereto shall be repurchased and canceled.

(k)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the terms and conditions of this Plan may be adjusted with respect to a particular country by means of a Sub-Plan in the form of an addendum to this Plan, and to the extent that the terms and conditions set forth in the Sub-Plan conflict with any provisions of this Plan, the provisions of the applicable Sub-Plan shall govern. Terms and conditions set forth in a Sub-Plan shall apply only to Awards issued to Participants under the jurisdiction of the specific country that is subject of the Sub-Plan and shall not apply to Awards issued to any other Participants. The adoption of any such Sub-Plan shall be subject to the approval of the Board, and, if required, the approval of the shareholders of the Company.

Section 18. Effective Date of the Plan.

The Plan is effective as of the date the Plan is approved by the Board, subject to subsequent approval, within 12 months of its adoption by the Board, by shareholders of the Company eligible to vote in the election of directors, by a vote sufficient to meet the requirements of any laws, regulations, and obligations of the Company applicable to the Plan.

Section 19. Term of the Plan.

No Award shall be granted under the Plan after the earliest to occur of (i) the tenth anniversary of the effectiveness of the Plan (the “Plan Expiration Date”); provided that to the extent permitted by the listing rules of any stock exchanges on which the Company is listed, such Plan Termination Date may be extended indefinitely so long as the maximum number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan have not been issued, (ii) the maximum number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan have been issued or (iii) the Board terminates the Plan in accordance with Section 16(a). However, unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or in an applicable Award Agreement, any Award theretofore granted may extend beyond such date, and the authority of the Committee to amend, alter, adjust, suspend, discontinue or terminate any such Award, or to waive any conditions or rights under any such Award, and the authority of the Board to amend the Plan, shall extend beyond such date.

Section 20. Sections 409A and 457A of the Code.

(a)

With respect to Awards subject to Section 409A and 457A of the Code, the Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A and 457A of the Code, and the provisions of the Plan and any Award Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Section 409A and 457A of the Code, and the Plan shall be operated accordingly. If any provision of the Plan or any term or condition of any Award would otherwise frustrate or conflict with this intent, the provision, term or condition will be interpreted and deemed amended so as to avoid this conflict. If an amount payable under an Award as a result of the Participant’s Termination of Service (other than due to death) occurring while the Participant is a “specified employee” under Section 409A of the Code constitutes a deferral of compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, then payment of such amount shall not occur until six months and one day after the date of the Participant’s Termination of Service, except as permitted under Section 409A of the Code. If the Award includes a “series of installment payments” (within the meaning of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations), the Participant’s right to the series of installment payments shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments and not as a right to a single payment, and if the Award includes “dividend equivalents” (within the meaning of Section 1.409A-3(e) of the Treasury Regulations), the Participant’s right to the dividend equivalents shall be treated separately from the right to other amounts under the Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the tax treatment of the benefits provided under the Plan or any Award Agreement is not warranted or guaranteed, and in no event shall the Company be liable for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by the Participant on account of non-compliance with Section 409A and 457A of the Code.

(b)

Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary or any Award Agreement, in the event the Committee determines that any Award may be subject to Section 409A or Section 457A of the Code, the Committee may adopt such amendments to the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, that the Committee determines are necessary or appropriate to (a) exempt the Award from Section 409A or Section 457A of the Code and/or preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided with respect to the Award, or (b) comply with the requirements of Section 409A or Section 457A and thereby avoid the application of any adverse tax consequences under such Sections.

(c)

Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary or any Award Agreement, a termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of an Award that is subject to Section 409A providing for payment upon or following a termination of a Participant’s employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” and, for purposes of any such provision of such Award, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.”

Section 21. Governing Law.

The Plan and each Award Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Cayman Islands. The Company, its Affiliates and each Participant (by acceptance of an Award) irrevocably submit, in respect of any suit, action or proceeding related to the implementation or enforcement of the Plan, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts in the Cayman Islands.

EXHIBIT B

RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the risks described below before making a decision to invest in the Securities. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business could be materially harmed. In that case, we may be unable to satisfy our obligations set forth in the Note and you may lose all or part of your investment. You also should refer to the other information set forth in the Disclosure Documents, including but not limited to the public reports of Currenc available at https://www.sec.gov/.

Our management will have broad discretion in using the net proceeds from the sale of the Note.

A substantial part of the proceeds from the sale of the Note will be for the Business Combination expenses. The specific use will be in the discretion of our officers and Board of Directors, and it is not certain that such discretion will be beneficial to investors. Accordingly, prospective investors who invest in the Company will be entirely dependent on the judgment of management of the Company in connection with the use of proceeds related to the sale of the Note. There can be no assurance that determinations ultimately made by management relating to the specific allocation of such proceeds will permit the Company to achieve its business objectives.

Ownership of the Securities involves substantial risk, and you may lose your entire investment.

The purchase of the Securities is a high-risk investment. Potential investors must be willing to risk the entire loss of their capital. No assurance or guaranty can be given as to the actual amount of financial return, if any, which may result from an investment in the Securities. Any investment in the Securities should be considered a high-risk investment and any such investment should be restricted to an investor’s risk capital only. YOU COULD LOSE YOUR ENTIRE INVESTMENT.

The Offering has not been registered under applicable securities laws and you will not be able to transfer the Securities easily, if at all.

The Offering has not been registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state. Accordingly, the Securities cannot be sold or otherwise transferred unless such sale or transfer is subsequently registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, or unless exemptions from such registration are available. Consequently, you may not be able to transfer your Securities when you desire to do so, and for a value you deem to be sufficient.

We may need to raise additional capital in the near future to fund our operations, and such capital may not be available to us in sufficient amounts or on acceptable terms.

We may require additional sources of financing before we can generate revenues needed to sustain operations.

We may be required to raise additional capital. Such additional financing could be sought from a number of sources, including but not limited to additional sales of equity or debt securities, or loans from banks, other financial institutions or affiliates of the Company. We cannot be certain that any such financing will be available on terms favourable to us if at all. If additional funds are raised by the issuance of debt or other equity instruments, we may become subject to certain operational limitations, and such securities may have rights senior to the rights of our Noteholders and stockholders. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to fund the current operations, expansion or growth of our business.

Exhibit 10.6

THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE, IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, ALL AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO MAKER.

14.2.3

If any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Holder may at any time at his, her or its option, by notice to the Issuer, declare the Note to be immediately due and payable, and upon any such declaration the Note (including any accrued and unpaid interest thereon) shall be immediately due and payable.

14.2.4

Upon the Note becoming due and payable under this Section 4.2, whether automatically or by declaration, the Note will forthwith mature and the entire unpaid principal amount (including any accrued and unpaid interest) shall all be immediately due and payable, in each and every case without presentment, demand, protest or further notice, all of which are hereby waived.

No right, power or remedy conferred by the Purchase Agreement or by the Note upon the Holder shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. The Issuer will pay to the Holder on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all reasonable costs and expenses of the Holder incurred in any enforcement or collection under this Article 4, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements.

15	CONVERSION

15.1	Conversion.

15.1.1

Conversion by Holder. At any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, the Holder shall have the right to, from time to time and at the Holder’s option, convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount (including any accrued and unpaid interest) of this Note to fully paid Ordinary Shares at the applicable Conversion Rate, in accordance with the provisions of this Article 5.

15.1.2

Conversion by the Issuer. At any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, the Issuer shall have the right to, from time to time and at the Issuer’s option, convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount (including any accrued and unpaid interest) of this Note to fully paid Ordinary Shares at 105% of the applicable Conversion Rate, in accordance with the provisions of this Article 5.

15.1.3

For the avoidance of doubt, any reference in this Note to the conversion of the Note into Ordinary Shares shall mean the issuance of Ordinary Shares following conversion of the Note in accordance with the procedure set forth in Section 5.2.

15.2	Conversion Procedure.

15.2.1

Subject to Section 5.2.2, this Note shall be deemed to have been converted immediately prior to the close of business on the date (the “Conversion Date”) that the Holder (or the Issuer as the case may be) has delivered, by electronic mail, courier or any other method of delivery permitted under Section 12.3, a written notice of conversion and the Note for cancellation to the Issuer (or the Holder as the case may be). Following the close of business on the Conversion Date, the rights of the Holder as holder of this Note to the extent of the conversion shall cease, and the Person or Persons in whose name or names the Ordinary Shares are to be issued upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the Ordinary Shares represented thereby.

15.2.2

As soon as possible upon each conversion, and in any event within five (5) Business Days after the relevant Conversion Date, the Issuer shall:

(a)

issue the number of Ordinary Shares to be issued upon conversion to be issued to the Holder, (B) cause the share certificate(s) evidencing such Ordinary Shares (if share certificates are issued by the Holder generally) to be executed and delivered to the Holder (or, if applicable, the custodian designated by the Holder), and (C) deposit such Ordinary Shares with the Holder (or, if applicable, the custodian designated by the Holder), in the name and on behalf of the Holder;

(b)

to issue and deliver to the securities account designated by the Holder a book-entry transfer for the number of Ordinary Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled to upon such conversion pursuant to Section 5.1; and

(c)

deliver to the Holder a new Note representing any portion of the principal amount that was represented by the Note surrendered to the Issuer in connection with such conversion, but which was not converted, or which could not be converted because it would have required the issuance of a fractional Ordinary Shares.

The converting Holder shall cooperate with the Issuer and the Depositary to facilitate the process outlined above.

15.2.3

If a fractional Ordinary Shares would, except for the provisions hereof, be deliverable upon conversion of this Note, the Issuer, in lieu of delivering such fractional Ordinary Shares, shall in the event the conversion is being consummated in connection with repayment in full of the Note, pay in cash an amount equal to the market price of such fractional share based on the Closing Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares on the Conversion Date.

15.2.4

The issuance of the Ordinary Shares upon conversion of this Note shall be made without charge to the Holder hereof for any issuance tax in respect thereof or other cost incurred by the Issuer in connection with such conversion and the related issuance of Ordinary Shares, unless the tax is due because the Holder requests such Ordinary Shares to be issued in a name other than the holder’s name, in which case the Holder shall pay such tax. Upon conversion of this Note, the Issuer shall take all such actions and execute and deliver all such documents as are necessary or reasonably requested by the Holder in order to ensure that the Ordinary Shares issuable with respect to such conversion shall be validly issued in accordance with Section 5.2.2, fully paid and nonassessable.

15.2.5

The Issuer shall not close its books against the transfer of Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of this Note in any manner which interferes with the timely conversion of this Note.

15.3

Conversion Rate. The initial Conversion Rate shall be 100 Ordinary Shares (subject to adjustment as provided in this Article 5, the “Conversion Rate”) per US$1,000 principal amount of the Note, representing a conversion price (“Conversion Price”) of US$10.00 per Ordinary Shares (as appropriately adjusted to reflect any adjustment to the Conversion Rate, the “Reference Price”). The Conversion Rate shall be subject to adjustment from time to time pursuant to Sections 5.4 or 5.5., and shall also be subject to adjustment as follows:

15.3.1

On the Effective Registration Date and three (3) and six (6) months following the Effective Registration Date, the Conversion Price is subject to downward reset to a Conversion Price which is the average VWAP in the 7 trading days prior to the Interest Payment Date, subject to a floor of US$2.00.

15.3.2

The Conversion Price is subject to a price match if the Issuer issues equity at a lower price in the future.

15.3.3

The Conversion Rate shall be adjusted accordingly.

15.4	Adjustments to Conversion Rate. No adjustment shall be made for the issuance of the Interest Shares. Subject to this, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted from time to time by the Issuer as set out below:

15.4.1

In case the Issuer shall, at any time or from time to time while the Note is outstanding, pay a dividend in Ordinary Shares or make a distribution in Ordinary Shares to all or substantially all holders of Ordinary Shares, then the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

where

CR₀	=	the Conversion Rate in effect at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the trading day immediately preceding the Record Date for such dividend or distribution;
CR₁	=	the Conversion Rate in effect on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution;
OS₀	=	the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the trading day immediately preceding the Record Date for such dividend or distribution; and
OS₁	=	the number of Ordinary Shares that would be outstanding immediately after, and solely as a result of, such dividend or distribution.

Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 5.4.1 shall become effective immediately prior to 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution. If any dividend or distribution that is the subject of this Section 5.4.1 is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors of the Issuer (the “Board of Directors”) publicly announces its decision not to pay or make such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. For purposes of this Section 5.4.1, the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the trading day immediately preceding the Record Date for such dividend or distribution shall not include Ordinary Shares held in treasury, if any. The Issuer shall not pay any dividend or make any distribution on Ordinary Shares held in treasury, if any.

15.4.2

In case outstanding Ordinary Shares shall be subdivided or split into a greater number of Ordinary Shares or combined or reverse split into a smaller number of Ordinary Shares (in each case, other than as a result of a transaction for which appropriate adjustment has been made in accordance with Section 5.5), the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:


where

CR₀	=	the Conversion Rate in effect at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the trading day immediately preceding the effective date of such subdivision, split, reverse split or combination;
CR₁	=	the Conversion Rate in effect on the effective date of such subdivision, split, reverse split or combination;
OS₀	=	the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the trading day immediately preceding the effective date of such subdivision, split, reverse split or combination; and
OS₁	=	the number of Ordinary Shares that would be outstanding immediately after, and solely as a result of, such subdivision, split, reverse split or combination.

Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 5.4.2 shall become effective immediately prior to 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the effective date of such subdivision, split, reverse split or combination.

15.4.3

In case the Issuer shall issue rights (other than rights issued pursuant to a shareholders’ rights plan or a dividend or distribution in Ordinary Shares as set forth in Section 5.4.1 above), options or warrants to all or substantially all holders of Ordinary Shares, other than an issuance as a result of a transaction for which appropriate adjustment has been made in accordance with Section5.5, entitling them to purchase, for a period expiring within forty-five (45) calendar days of the date of issuance, Ordinary Shares at a price per Ordinary Share less than the average of the Closing Sale Prices of Ordinary Shares during the ten (10) consecutive trading day period ending on the trading day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:


where

CR₀	=	the Conversion Rate in effect at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the trading day immediately preceding the Record Date for such issuance;
CR₁	=	the Conversion Rate in effect on the Record Date for such issuance;
OS₀	=	the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the trading day immediately preceding the Record Date for such issuance;
X	=	the total number of Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and
Y	=	the number of Ordinary Shares equal to the quotient of (x) aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, divided by (y) the average of the Closing Sale Prices of Ordinary Shares during the ten (10) consecutive trading day period ending on the trading day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance.

No adjustment shall be made in relation to any issue of Ordinary Shares pursuant to the exercise of warrants issued to the Holder in conjunction with this Note issuance.

Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 5.4.3 shall become effective immediately prior to 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Record Date for such issuance. If any rights, options or warrants described in this Section 5.4.3 are not so issued, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to issue such rights, options or warrants, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such issuance had not been declared. To the extent that such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to their expiration or Ordinary Shares are otherwise not delivered pursuant to such rights, options or warrants upon the exercise of such rights, options or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of Ordinary Shares actually delivered. In determining the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options and warrants, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Issuer for such rights, options or warrants and the value of such consideration (if other than cash, to be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors). For purposes of this Section 5.4.3, the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the trading day immediately preceding the Record Date for such issuance shall not include Ordinary Shares held in treasury, if any. The Issuer shall not issue any such rights, options or warrants in respect of Ordinary Shares held in treasury, if any.

15.4.4

In case the Issuer shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all or substantially all holders of Ordinary Shares any class of capital stock of the Issuer or evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including securities, but excluding (i) any dividends or distributions referred to in Section 5.4.1, (ii) any rights, options or warrants referred to in Section 5.4.3, (iii) any dividends or distributions of exclusively cash referred to in Section 5.4.5, (iv) any dividends or distributions as a result of a transaction for which appropriate adjustment has been made in accordance with Section 5.5, or (v) any Spin-Offs to which the provisions set forth below in this Section 5.4.4 applies) (any of such class of capital stock, evidences of indebtedness or assets, including those subject to any Spin-Off, the “Distributed Assets”), then, in each such case, the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:


where

CR₀	=	the Conversion Rate in effect at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the trading day immediately preceding the Record Date for such distribution;
CR₁	=	the Conversion Rate in effect on the Record Date for such distribution;
SP₀	=	the average of the Closing Sale Prices of Ordinary Shares during the ten (10) consecutive trading day period ending on the trading day immediately preceding the Record Date for such distribution; and
FMV	=	the fair market value on the Record Date for such distribution of the Distributed Assets applicable to one (1) Ordinary Share, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.

In the event where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on the Ordinary Shares or shares of capital stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Issuer (a “Spin-Off”) that are, or when issued, will be, traded, listed or admitted for trading or listing on the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq Global Market, the Nasdaq Global Select Market or any other U.S. national securities exchange or market, then the Conversion Rate shall instead be increased based on the following formula:



where

CR₀	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the end of the Spin-Off Valuation Period (as defined below);
CR₁	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the end of the Spin-Off Valuation Period;
FMV₀	=	the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Distributed Assets during the ten consecutive trading day period commencing on and including the effective date of the Spin-Off (the “Spin-Off Valuation Period”) applicable to one (1) Ordinary Share; and
MP₀	=	the average of the Closing Sale Prices of Ordinary Shares during the Spin-Off Valuation Period.

In respect of any conversion during the Spin-Off Valuation Period, references in the portion of this Section 5.4.4 related to Spin-Offs to ten trading days shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of trading days as have elapsed from, and including, the effective date of such Spin-Off to, and including, the Conversion Date in determining the Conversion Rate for such conversion.

Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 5.4.4 shall become effective immediately prior to 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Record Date for such distribution, or, in the case of a Spin-Off, immediately after the end of the Spin-Off Valuation Period. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 5.4.4 is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with any dividend or distribution referred to in this Section 5.4.4, the Holder may elect to receive, in lieu of the foregoing adjustments, in respect of each US$1,000 principal amount of the Note, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of Ordinary Shares receive the Distributed Assets, the amount and kind of Distributed Assets the Holder would have received if such holder had converted such principal amount of the Note into a number of Ordinary Shares at the Conversion Rate as in effect immediately prior to the Record Date for the distribution.

Rights or warrants distributed by the Issuer to all holders of Ordinary Shares entitling the holders thereof to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Issuer’s capital stock (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (“Trigger Event”): (i) are deemed to be transferred with such Ordinary Shares; (ii) are not exercisable; and (iii) are also issued in respect of future issuances of Ordinary Shares, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 5.4 (and no adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 5.4 will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event, whereupon such rights and warrants shall be deemed to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment (if any is required) to the Conversion Rate shall be made under this Section 5.4.4. If any such right or warrant, including any such existing rights or warrants distributed prior to the date of this Note, are subject to events, upon the occurrence of which such rights or warrants become exercisable to purchase different securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets, then the date of the occurrence of any and each such event shall be deemed to be the date of distribution and Record Date with respect to new rights or warrants with such rights. In addition, in the event of any distribution (or deemed distribution) of rights or warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in the preceding sentence) with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 5.4 was made, (A) in the case of any such rights or warrants that shall all have been redeemed or repurchased without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted upon such final redemption or repurchase to give effect to such distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or repurchase price received by a holder or holders of Ordinary Shares with respect to such rights or warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights or warrants), made to all holders of Ordinary Shares as of the date of such redemption or repurchase and (B) in the case of such rights or warrants that shall have expired or been terminated without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights and warrants had not been issued.

15.4.5

In case the Issuer shall pay a dividend or otherwise distribute to all or substantially all holders of its Ordinary Shares a dividend or other distribution of exclusively cash, then the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:


where

CR₀	=	the Conversion Rate in effect at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the trading day immediately preceding the Record Date for such dividend or distribution;
CR₁	=	the Conversion Rate in effect on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution;
SP₀	=	the average of the Closing Sale Prices of Ordinary Shares during the ten (10) consecutive trading day period ending on the trading day immediately preceding the Record Date for such dividend or distribution; and
DIV	=	the amount in cash per Ordinary Share the Issuer distributes to holders of its Ordinary Shares.

Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 5.4.5 shall become effective immediately prior to 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 5.4.5 is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with any dividend or distribution referred to in this Section 5.4.5, the Holder may elect to receive, in lieu of the foregoing adjustments, in respect of each US$1,000 principal amount of the Note, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of Ordinary Shares receive such dividend or distribution, the amount of such dividend or distribution in cash the Holder would have received if the such holder had converted such principal amount of the Note into a number of Ordinary Shares at the Conversion Rate as in effect immediately prior to the Record Date for the distribution.

15.4.6

In case of purchases of the Ordinary Shares pursuant to a tender offer or exchange offer made by the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer for all or any portion of the Ordinary Shares, to the extent that the amount of cash and the fair market value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors as of the Expiration Date, of any other consideration included in the payment per Ordinary Share exceeds the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares during the ten (10) consecutive trading days commencing on the trading day next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender offer or exchange offer (as it may be amended) (the “Expiration Date”), the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:


where

CR₀	=	the Conversion Rate in effect at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the 10th trading day immediately following the trading day next succeeding the Expiration Date;
CR₁	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the 10th trading day immediately following the trading day next succeeding the Expiration Date;
FMV	=	the aggregate amount of cash and fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors as of the Expiration Date) of all other consideration, paid or payable for Ordinary Shares validly tendered or exchanged and not validly withdrawn in such tender or exchange offer;
OS₁	=	the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after the last time tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender offer or exchange offer (the “Expiration Time”), after giving effect to the purchase of all Ordinary Shares, accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer;
OS₀	=	the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately before the Expiration Time; and
SP₁	=	the average of the Closing Sale Prices of Ordinary Shares during the ten (10) consecutive trading day period commencing on the trading day next succeeding the Expiration Date.

In respect of any conversion during such ten (10) consecutive trading day period, references in this Section 5.4.6 to such ten (10) trading day period shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of trading days as have elapsed from, and including, the trading day next succeeding the Expiration Date in determining the Conversion Rate for such conversion.

Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 5.4.6 shall become effective immediately after 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the 10th trading day immediately following the trading day next succeeding the Expiration Date. If the Issuer, or one of its Subsidiaries, is obligated to purchase Ordinary Shares pursuant to any such tender or exchange offer, but the Issuer or such Subsidiary is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting all such purchases or all such purchases are rescinded, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such tender or exchange offer had not been made. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, if the application of this Section 5.4.6 to any tender offer or exchange offer would result in a decrease in the Conversion Rate, no adjustment shall be made for such tender offer or exchange offer under this Section 5.4.6.

15.4.7

If and whenever the Issuer shall issue any Ordinary Shares or issue or grant options, warrants or other rights to purchase, subscribe, convert into, exercise or exchange for Ordinary Shares (other than any issuance pursuant to this Note, any other convertible note issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement or the Other CBs, or upon the grant, vesting or exercise of any Permitted Equity Awards) (the “Relevant Securities”), in each case at a consideration per Ordinary Share (on an as-converted and as-exercised basis) which is less than the Reference Price per Ordinary Share, the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:


where

CR₀	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the date of issue of the Relevant Securities;
CR₁	=	the Conversion Rate in effect as from the date of issue of the Relevant Securities;
A	=	the number of issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares immediately before the issue of the Relevant Securities;
B	=	the number of Ordinary Shares which the aggregate consideration receivable for the issue of the Relevant Securities would purchase at the price equal to (x) the Reference Price divided by (y) the applicable number of Ordinary Shares; and
C	=	the number of issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares immediately after the issue of the Relevant Securities;

provided that references to the number of Ordinary Shares in the above formula shall include all the Ordinary Shares to be issued assuming that all options, warrants or other rights to purchase, subscribe, convert into, exercise or exchange for Ordinary Shares are exercised in full at the initial exercise price on the date of issue of such options, warrants or other rights.

15.4.8

To the extent that the Issuer has a shareholder rights plan in effect upon any conversion of the Note, each Ordinary Shares delivered upon such conversion shall be entitled to receive the appropriate number of rights, if any, and the certificates representing the Ordinary Shares delivered upon such conversion shall bear such legends, if any, in each case as may be provided by the terms of any such shareholder rights plan, as the same may be amended from time to time. However, if, prior to any conversion, the rights have separated from the Ordinary Shares pursuant to the provisions of the applicable shareholder rights plan, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Issuer had made a distribution as provided in Section 5.4.4, subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.

15.4.9

In addition to those adjustments required by Sections 5.4.1 to 5.4.8 (both inclusive), and to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the applicable rules of the Nasdaq Exchange and any other securities exchange on which any of the Issuer’s securities are then listed, the Issuer from time to time may increase the Conversion Rate by any amount for a period of at least twenty (20) Business Days if the Board of Directors determines that such increase would be in the Issuer’s best interest, and the Issuer may (but is not required to) increase the Conversion Rate to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of the Ordinary Shares or rights to purchase Ordinary Shares in connection with a dividend or distribution of Ordinary Shares (or rights to acquire Ordinary Shares) or similar event.

15.4.10

All calculations under this Article 5 shall be made in good faith by the Issuer in accordance with this Article 5, and shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest one-ten thousandth (1/10,000) of an Ordinary Share, as the case may be. The Issuer shall certify to the Holder that all calculations are made in compliance with this Article 5, and shall show the Holder in detail the facts upon which such calculations and adjustments were made.

15.4.11

For purposes of this Section 5.4, the number of Ordinary Shares at any time outstanding shall not include Ordinary Shares held in the treasury of the Issuer but shall include Ordinary Shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of Ordinary Shares. The Issuer shall not pay any dividend or make any distribution on Ordinary Shares held in the treasury of the Issuer.

15.4.12

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing sub-sections in this Section 5.4, the applicable Conversion Rate will not be adjusted pursuant to this Section 5.4, (i) if and to the extent that the Holder participates in the transaction that would otherwise give rise to adjustment pursuant to this Section 5.4 on an as-converted basis or (ii) solely by reason of the issuance or conversion of any other Note pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

15.5	Effect of Recapitalizations, Reclassifications and Changes of the Ordinary Shares.

15.5.1

In the case of:

(a)

any recapitalization, reclassification or change of Ordinary Shares (other than changes resulting from a subdivision or combination),

(b)

any consolidation, merger, combination or similar transaction involving the Issuer,

(c)

any sale, lease or other transfer to a third party of the consolidated assets of the Issuer and the Issuer’s Subsidiaries substantially as an entirety or

(d)

any statutory share exchange,

in each case, as a result of which the Ordinary Shares or the Ordinary Shares would be converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such event, a “Merger Event”), then, prior to or at the effective time of such Merger Event, the Issuer or the successor or purchasing Person, as the case may be, shall execute an amendment to the Note providing that, at and after the effective time of such Merger Event, the right to convert each US$1,000 principal amount of the Note shall be changed into a right to convert such principal amount of Note into the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the Conversion Rate immediately prior to such Merger Event would have owned or been entitled to receive (the “Reference Property,” with each “unit of Reference Property” meaning the kind and amount of Reference Property that a holder of one Ordinary Shares is entitled to receive) upon such Merger Event; provided, however, that any Ordinary Share that the Issuer would have been required to deliver upon conversion of the Note shall instead be deliverable in the amount and type of Reference Property that a holder of that number of Ordinary Shares would have been entitled to receive in such Merger Event.

If the Merger Event causes the Ordinary Shares to be converted into, or exchanged for, the right to receive more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of holder election), then (i) the Reference Property into which the Note will be convertible shall be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration actually received by the holders of Ordinary Shares, and (ii) the unit of Reference Property for purposes of the immediately preceding paragraph shall refer to the consideration referred to in clause (i) attributable to one Ordinary Share. If the holders of the Ordinary Shares receive only cash in such Merger Event, then for all conversions for which the relevant Conversion Date occurs after the effective date of such Merger Event the consideration due upon conversion of each US$1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be solely cash in an amount equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date, multiplied by the price paid per Ordinary Share, in such Merger Event.

Such amendment described in the second immediately preceding paragraph shall provide for anti-dilution and other adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as is practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Article 5 (it being understood that no such adjustments shall be required with respect to any portion of the Reference Property that does not consist of equity securities (however evidenced) or depositary receipts in respect thereof). If, in the case of any Merger Event, the Reference Property includes shares of stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) of a Person other than the Issuer or the successor or purchasing Person, as the case may be, in such Merger Event, then such other Person shall also execute such amendment and such amendment shall contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the Holder.

15.5.2

The Issuer shall not become a party to any Merger Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section5.5. None of the foregoing provisions shall affect the right of the Holder to convert the Note pursuant to the terms of the Note.

15.5.3

The above provisions of this Section 5.5 shall similarly apply to successive Merger Events.

15.6	Principal Market Regulation.

15.6.1

The Issuer shall not issue any Ordinary Shares upon conversion of the Note, or otherwise pursuant to the terms of this Note, if the issuance of such Ordinary Shares would exceed the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares which the Issuer may issue upon conversion of the Notes, or otherwise pursuant to the terms of the Notes, without breaching the Issuer’s obligations under the rules or regulations of the Principal Market (the aggregate number of shares which may be issued under the Notes and Warrants without violating such rules and regulations, including rules related to the aggregate of offerings under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(d), the “Exchange Cap”), except that such limitation shall not apply in the event that the Issuer:

(a)

obtains the approval of its stockholders as required by the applicable rules of the Principal Market for issuances of Ordinary Shares in excess of such amount; or

(b)

obtains a written opinion from counsel to the Issuer that such approval is not required, which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Holder.

15.6.2

If the conversion of the Note will result in Section 5.6.1 being breached, the Issuer shall be entitled to cut back amount of the Note that can be converted until such time as either the condition in Section 5.6.1(a), the condition in Section 5.6.1(b) has been fulfilled or the Issuer is otherwise permitted to issue the Ordinary Shares without breaching Section 5.6.1. The Issuer shall make reasonable endeavours to procure the satisfaction of these conditions without undue delay.

15.7

Notices.

15.7.1

Immediately upon any adjustment of the Conversion Rate, the Issuer shall send written notice thereof to the Holder, setting forth in reasonable detail and certifying the calculation of such adjustment.

15.7.2

The Issuer shall send written notice to the Holder at least twenty (20) days prior to the date on which the Issuer closes its books or takes a record (i) with respect to any dividend or distribution upon Ordinary Shares, any subdivision, stock split, reverse stock split or combination, or any tender offer or exchange offer, (ii) with respect to any pro rata subscription offer to holders of Ordinary Shares or (iii) for determining rights to vote with respect to any Fundamental Change, dissolution or liquidation.

15.7.3

(a)

any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for:

(i)

the existence of any present or former connection between the Holder and the Relevant Jurisdiction, other than merely holding the Note or the receipt of payments thereunder, including the Holder or beneficial owner being or having been a national, domiciliary or resident of such Relevant Jurisdiction or treated as a resident thereof or being or having been physically present or engaged in a trade or business therein or having or having had a permanent establishment therein;

(ii)

the failure of the Holder to comply with a timely request from the Issuer or any successor of the Issuer, addressed to the Holder, to provide certification, information, documents or other evidence concerning the Holder’s or nationality, residence, identity or connection with the Relevant Jurisdiction, or to make any declaration or satisfy any other reporting requirement relating to such matters, if and to the extent that due and timely compliance with such request is required by statute, regulation or administrative practice of the Relevant Jurisdiction in order to reduce or eliminate any withholding or deduction as to which Additional Amounts would have otherwise been payable; or

(iii)

the presentation of the Note (in cases in which presentation is required) for payment in the Relevant Jurisdiction, unless the Note could not have been presented for payment elsewhere;

(b)

any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, excise, personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge; or

any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that is payable otherwise than by withholding, deducting or any collection at source from payments or deliveries under or with respect to the Note.

16.2.4

The Issuer further covenants to take all actions and obtain all approvals and registrations required with respect to the conversion of the Note into Ordinary Shares and the issuance, and deposit into the Ordinary Shares facility, of the Ordinary Shares.

The Issuer further covenants to provide the Holder with a reasonably detailed description of the mechanics for the delivery of Ordinary Shares upon any conversion of this Note upon request and to reserve, free from pre-emptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Ordinary Shares, a number of Ordinary Shares that is greater than or equal to the number of Ordinary Shares due upon full conversion of the Note from time to time.

	23.3.2	Registered Holder.

24	Terms and Exercise of Warrants

24.1	Warrant Price.

	24.3.2	Issuance of Ordinary Shares. As soon as practicable after the exercise of any Warrant and the clearance of the funds in payment of the Warrant Price (if any), the Company shall issue to the registered holder of such Warrant a certificate or certificates, or book entry position, for the number of Ordinary Shares to which he, she or it is entitled, registered in such name or names as may be directed by him, her or it, and if such Warrant shall not have been exercised in full, a new countersigned Warrant, or book entry position, for the number of shares as to which such Warrant shall not have been exercised. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Warrant exercise. No Warrant shall be exercisable for cash and the Company shall not be obligated to issue Ordinary Shares upon exercise of a Warrant unless the Ordinary Shares issuable upon such Warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the Warrants.

	24.3.5	Maximum Percentage. A holder of a Warrant may notify the Company in writing in the event it elects to be subject to the provisions contained in this Section 2.3.5; however, no holder of a Warrant shall be subject to this Section 2.3.5 unless he, she or it makes such election. If the election is made by a holder, the Company shall not effect the exercise of the holder’s Warrant, and such holder shall not have the right to exercise such Warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such person (together with such person’s affiliates), to the Company’s actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 9.9% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by such person and its affiliates shall include the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude Ordinary Shares that would be issuable upon (x) exercise of the remaining, unexercised portion of the Warrant beneficially owned by such person and its affiliates and (y) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company beneficially owned by such person and its affiliates (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred shares or warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this paragraph, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). For purposes of the Warrant, in determining the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares, the holder may rely on the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares as reflected in (1) the Company’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly report on Form 10-Q, current report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the SEC as the case may be, (2) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (3) any other notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding. For any reason at any time, upon the written request of the holder of the Warrant, the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days, confirm orally and in writing to such holder the number of Ordinary Shares then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of equity securities of the Company by the holder and its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding Ordinary Shares was reported. By written notice to the Company, the holder of a Warrant may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage applicable to such holder to any other percentage specified in such notice; provided, however, that any such increase shall not be effective until the sixty-first (61^st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company.

24.3.6

Principal Market Regulation

(a)

The Company shall not issue any Ordinary Shares upon conversion of the Warrant, or otherwise pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, if the issuance of such Ordinary Shares would exceed the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares which the Company may issue upon conversion of the Warrants, or otherwise pursuant to the terms of the Warrants, without breaching the Company’s obligations under the rules or regulations of the Principal Market (the aggregate number of shares which may be issued under the Warrants and Warrants without violating such rules and regulations, including rules related to the aggregate of offerings under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(d), the “Exchange Cap”), except that such limitation shall not apply in the event that the Company:

	(i)	obtains the approval of its stockholders as required by the applicable rules of the Principal Market for issuances of Ordinary Shares in excess of such amount; or

	(ii)	obtains a written opinion from counsel to the Company that such approval is not required, which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Warrant Holder.

24.3.7

If the conversion of the Warrant will result in Section 2.3.6(a) being breached, the Company shall be entitled to cut back amount of the Warrants that can be converted until such time as either the condition in Section 2.3.6(a)(i), the condition in 2.3.6(a)(ii) has been fulfilled or the Company is otherwise permitted to issue the Ordinary Shares without breaching Section 2.3.6(a). The Company shall make reasonable endeavours to procure the satisfaction of these conditions without undue delay.

25	Adjustments.

25.1	Stock Dividends; Split Ups. If after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of this Section 3 below, the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares is increased by a stock dividend payable in Ordinary Shares, or by a split up of Ordinary Shares, or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such stock dividend, split up or similar event, the number of Ordinary Shares issuable on exercise of each Warrant shall be increased in proportion to such increase in outstanding Ordinary Shares.

25.2	Aggregation of Shares. If after the date hereof, the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse stock split or reclassification of Ordinary Shares or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse stock split, reclassification or similar event, the number of Ordinary Shares issuable on exercise of each Warrant shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding Ordinary Shares.

25.3	Extraordinary Dividends. If the Company, at any time while the Warrants are outstanding and unexpired, shall pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to the holders of the Ordinary Shares or other shares of the Company’s capital stock into which the Warrants are convertible (an “Extraordinary Dividend”), then the Warrant Price shall be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such Extraordinary Dividend, by the amount of cash and the fair market value (as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors, in good faith) of any securities or other assets paid in respect of such Extraordinary Dividend divided by all outstanding shares of the Company at such time (whether or not any shareholders waived their right to receive such dividend); provided, however, that none of the following shall be deemed an Extraordinary Dividend for purposes of this provision: (a) any adjustment described in Section 3.1 above, (b) any cash dividends or cash distributions which, when combined on a per share basis with all other cash dividends and cash distributions paid on the Ordinary Shares during the 365-day period ending on the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution does not exceed $0.50 per share (taking into account all of the outstanding shares of the Company at such time (whether or not any shareholders waived their right to receive such dividend) and as adjusted to appropriately reflect any of the events referred to in other subsections of this Section 3 and excluding cash dividends or cash distributions that resulted in an adjustment to the Warrant Price or to the number of Ordinary Shares issuable on exercise of each Warrant) but only with respect to the amount of the aggregate cash dividends or cash distributions equal to or less than $0.50.

25.4	Adjustments in Exercise Price. Whenever the number of Ordinary Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants is adjusted, as provided in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 above, the Warrant Price shall be adjusted (to the nearest cent) by multiplying such Warrant Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which shall be the number of Ordinary Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which shall be the number of Ordinary Shares so purchasable immediately thereafter.

25.5	Replacement of Securities upon Reorganization, etc. In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding Ordinary Shares (other than a change covered by Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.3 hereof or that solely affects the par value of the Ordinary Shares), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding Ordinary Shares), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the assets or other property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which the Company is dissolved, the Warrant holders shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in the Warrants and in lieu of the Ordinary Shares of the Company immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the Warrant holder would have received if such Warrant holder had exercised his, her or its Warrant(s) immediately prior to such event. If any reclassification also results in a change in the Ordinary Shares covered by Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.3, then such adjustment shall be made pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4 and this Section 3.5. The provisions of this Section 3.5 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, reorganizations, mergers or consolidations, sales or other transfers. In no event will the Warrant Price be reduced to less than the par value per share issuable upon exercise of the Warrant.

25.6	Notices of Changes in Warrant. Upon every adjustment of the Warrant Price or the number of shares issuable upon exercise of a Warrant, the Company shall give written notice thereof to the Warrant Holder, which notice shall state the Warrant Price resulting from such adjustment and the increase or decrease, if any, in the number of shares purchasable at such price upon the exercise of a Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Upon the occurrence of any event specified in Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5 or 3.6, then, in any such event, the Company shall give written notice to each Warrant holder, at the last address set forth for such holder in the Warrant Register, of the record date or the effective date of the event. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such event.

25.7	No Fractional Warrants or Shares. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not issue fractional shares upon exercise of Warrants. If, by reason of any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3, the holder of any Warrant would be entitled, upon the exercise of such Warrant, to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company shall, upon such exercise, round up to the nearest whole number of Ordinary Shares to be issued to the Warrant holder.

25.8	Form of Warrant. The form of Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustment pursuant to this Section 3, and Warrants issued after such adjustment may state the same Warrant Price and the same number of shares as is stated in the Warrants initially issued pursuant to this Agreement. However, the Company may at any time in its sole discretion make any change in the form of Warrant that the Company may deem appropriate and that does not affect the substance thereof, and any Warrant thereafter issued, whether in exchange or substitution for an outstanding Warrant or otherwise, may be in the form as so changed.

25.9	Other Events. In case any event shall occur affecting the Company as to which none of the provisions of preceding subsections of this Section 3 are strictly applicable, but which would require an adjustment to the terms of the Warrants in order to (i) avoid an adverse impact on the Warrants and (ii) effectuate the intent and purpose of this Section 3, then, in each such case, the Company shall appoint a firm of independent public accountants, investment banking or other appraisal firm of recognized national standing, which shall give its opinion as to whether or not any adjustment to the rights represented by the Warrants is necessary to effectuate the intent and purpose of this Section 3 and, if they determine that an adjustment is necessary, the terms of such adjustment. The Company shall adjust the terms of the Warrants in a manner that is consistent with any adjustment recommended in such opinion.

26	Transfer and Exchange of Warrants.

26.1	Registration of Transfer. The Company shall register the transfer, from time to time, of any outstanding Warrant upon the Warrant Register, upon surrender of such Warrant for transfer, properly endorsed with signatures, in the case of certificated Warrants, properly guaranteed and accompanied by appropriate instructions for transfer. Upon any such transfer, a new Warrant representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants shall be issued and the old Warrant shall be cancelled by the Company.

26.2	Procedure for Surrender of Warrants. Warrants may be surrendered to the Company, either in certificated form or in book entry position, together with a written request for exchange or transfer, and thereupon the Company shall issue in exchange therefor one or more new Warrants, or book entry positions, as requested by the registered holder of the Warrants so surrendered, representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants; provided, however, that in the event that a Warrant surrendered for transfer bears a restrictive legend, the Company shall not cancel such Warrant and issue new Warrants in exchange therefor until the Company has received an opinion of counsel for the Company stating that such transfer may be made and indicating whether the new Warrants must also bear a restrictive legend.

26.3	Fractional Warrants. The Company shall not be required to effect any registration of transfer or exchange which will result in the issuance of a warrant certificate or book-entry position for a fraction of a warrant, except as part of the Units.

26.4	Service Charges. No service charge shall be made for any exchange or registration

27	Other Provisions Relating to Rights of Holders of Warrants.

27.1	No Rights as Shareholder. A Warrant does not entitle the registered holder thereof to any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to receive dividends, or other distributions, exercise any pre-emptive rights to vote or to consent or to receive notice as stockholders in respect of the meetings of shareholders or the election of directors of the Company or any other matter.

27.2	Lost, Stolen, Mutilated, or Destroyed Warrants. If any Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed, the Company may on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as they may in their discretion impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, include the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of like denomination, tenor, and date as the Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed. Any such new Warrant shall constitute a substitute contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.

27.3	Reservation of Ordinary Shares. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available a number of its authorized but unissued Ordinary Shares that will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants issued pursuant to this Agreement.

27.4	Piggyback Registration.

27.4.1

Registration:

	(a)	If the Company proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), whether for its own account or for the account of other security holders, the Company shall give prompt written notice to the Company of its intention to do so.

	(b)	Upon the written request of the Company given within 20 days after the Company provides such notice, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause all Ordinary Shares held by the Company (the “Piggyback Shares”) to be included in such registration, subject to the provisions of this Section.

27.4.2

Cutback Provision:

(a)

	27.4.3	Expenses:

		The Company shall bear all expenses incurred in connection with each registration of Piggyback Shares pursuant to this Section, except for underwriting discounts, commissions, and transfer taxes applicable to the sale of the Piggyback Shares.

	27.4.4	Ongoing Registration Commitment:

		The Company hereby undertakes to use its best efforts to effect at least one registration of its securities under the Securities Act per calendar year, for as long as (i) the Company continue to hold any Ordinary Shares that were issued upon conversion of the Warrants, (ii) and the Company did not have the opportunity to register such shares pursuant to the prior registrations made by the Company.

Exhibit 21.1

Exhibit 99.1

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

Unless otherwise indicated, defined terms included below shall have the same meaning as terms defined and included elsewhere in the Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Form 8-K”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 6, 2024.

Introduction

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. For each of the periods presented, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information reflects the combination of historical financial information of Seamless and INFINT, including (1) certain transactions required under the Business Combination Agreement; specifically (a) the Divestitures by Seamless of all of the equity interests that it owns in (i) TNG Asia, (ii) FNTI and (iii) GEA (“the Divested Entities”), (b) acquisition of an additional ownership share in Dynamic Indonesia, parent company of the WalletKu operating group, such that Seamless holds financial control of 79% of WalletKu, (c) exercise by the holder of a conversion right under the Convertible Bond Instrument to convert it into Seamless shares, and (2) the Business Combination, the payment of transaction costs associated therewith and the cash settlement of certain obligations in accordance with INFINT IPO (for purposes of this Exhibit 99.1, collectively, the “Transactions”). For purposes of this Exhibit 99.1, Seamless and INFINT are collectively referred to as the “Companies,” and the Companies, subsequent to the Business Combination, are referred to herein as the “Combined Company.”

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been presented to provide relevant information necessary for an understanding of the Combined Company subsequent to completion of the Transactions. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet, which has been presented for the Combined Company as of June 30, 2024, gives effect to the Transactions as if they were consummated on June 30, 2024. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations, which have been presented for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and for the year ended December 31, 2023, give pro forma effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2023. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet does not purport to represent, and is not necessarily indicative of, what the actual financial condition of the Combined Company would have been had the Transactions taken place on June 30, 2024, nor is it indicative of the financial condition of the Combined Company as of any future date. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations do not purport to represent, and are not necessarily indicative of, what the actual results of operations of the Combined Company would have been had the Transactions taken place on January 1, 2023, nor is it necessarily indicative of the results of operations of the Combined Company for any future period.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was derived from, and should be read in conjunction with, the following historical financial statements and notes thereto, which are included elsewhere in this Form 8-K, the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, or INFINT’s periodic filings with the SEC:

	●	The historical unaudited consolidated financial statements of Seamless as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the historical audited consolidated financial statements of Seamless as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, and

	●	The historical unaudited financial statements of INFINT as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and the historical audited financial statements of INFINT as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023.

This unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should be read together with the sections of this Form 8-K entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Seamless” and INFINT’s “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in its Form 10-Q for the second quarter of 2024 and the section of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus entitled “Proposal No. 1— The Business Combination Proposal,” as well as other information included elsewhere in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Description of the Transactions

INFINT was a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. INFINT consummated its IPO of 17,391,200 units at an offering price of $10.00 per unit on November 23, 2021. Simultaneously with the closing of the INFINT IPO, INFINT completed the Private Placement of 7,032,580 warrants issued to the Sponsor, generating total proceeds of $7,032,580. On November 23, 2021, the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option in full, according to which the Company consummated the sale of an additional 2,608,680 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, and the sale of an additional 764,262 Private Warrants, at $1.00 per Private Warrant. Following the closing of the over-allotment option, the Company generated total gross proceeds of $207,795,642 from the INFINT IPO and the Private Placement, of which the Company raised $199,998,800 in the INFINT IPO, $7,796,842 in the Private Placement and of which $202,998,782 was placed in the Company’s trust account established in connection with the INFINT IPO.

On February 14, 2023, INFINT shareholders approved an amendment to INFINT’s memorandum and articles of association, to extend the date by which it has to consummate a Business Combination from February 23, 2023 to August 23, 2023 (or such earlier date as determined by the INFINT Board). Under Cayman Islands law, the amendment to the memorandum and articles of association took effect upon approval of the proposal to amend the memorandum and articles of association. In connection with the votes to approve the proposal to amend the memorandum and articles of association, the holders of 10,415,452 Class A ordinary shares of INFINT properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.49 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $109.31 million, leaving approximately $100.59 million in INFINT’s trust account as of February 14, 2023.

On August 18, 2023, INFINT shareholders approved an amendment to INFINT’s memorandum and articles of association, to extend the date by which it has to consummate a Business Combination from August 23, 2023 to February 23, 2024, or such earlier date as determined by the Company’s board of directors (the “Second Extended Date”). Under Cayman Islands law, the amendment to the memorandum and articles of association took effect upon approval of the proposal to amend the memorandum and articles of association. In connection with the votes to approve the Second Extension Proposal, the holders of 2,176,003 Class A ordinary shares of INFINT properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.94 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $23.8 million, leaving approximately $81.1 million in INFINT’s trust account as of August 18, 2023.

On February 16, 2024, INFINT shareholders approved an amendment to INFINT’s memorandum and articles of association, to extend the date by which it has to consummate a Business Combination from February 23, 2024 to November 23, 2024, or such earlier date as determined by the Board (the “Third Extended Date”). Under Cayman Islands law, the amendment to the memorandum and articles of association took effect upon approval of the proposal to amend the memorandum and articles of association. In connection with the votes to approve the Third Extension Proposal, the holders of 2,661,404 Class A ordinary shares of INFINT properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $11.36 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $30.26 million, leaving approximately $53.97 million in INFINT’s trust account as of February 16, 2024. After the February 2024 Redemption, INFINT had 4,747,021 Class A shares outstanding and potentially redeemable in the future.

In accordance with the Business Combination Agreement, as amended, additional funds in the amount of $80,000 were deposited by Seamless to the trust account on February 20, 2024, and the required contributions continued to be deposited on or before the 23rd day of each subsequent calendar month into the trust account until the Third Extended Date or the date an initial business combination was completed.

On August 30, 2024, INFINT and Seamless consummated the Business Combination (the “Closing”) contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement between the parties dated August 3, 2022. INFINT is the legal acquirer of Seamless, in that all Seamless shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the merger were canceled and converted into the right to receive INFINT ordinary shares. However, for financial reporting purposes, Seamless is deemed the accounting acquirer and INFINT the acquired company. See “Proposal No. 1— The Business Combination Proposal — Anticipated Accounting Treatment of the Business Combination.”

The following activities are reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements below:

●

Prior to the Closing, related to certain matters that were required to take place per the Business Combination Agreement:

	○	The Divestiture by Seamless of all of the equity interests that it owns in (a) TNG Asia, (b) FNTI and (c) GEA such that, upon consummation of these Divestitures, the Divested Entities are no longer Affiliates of Seamless or included in the consolidated financial statements of Seamless.

	○	The acquisition of an additional ownership share in Dynamic Indonesia, the parent company of the WalletKu operating group, such that Seamless holds financial control of 79% of WalletKu.

	○	The exercise by the holder of a conversion right under the Convertible Bond Instrument to convert that instrument into Seamless shares.

●

In connection with the Closing:

	○	The payment of transaction costs incurred by both Seamless and INFINT.

	○	The conversion of INFINT’s Class B shares to Class A ordinary shares on a one-for-one basis.

	○	INFINT’s contribution of all of its assets to Seamless, including but not limited to, the proceeds from the trust account (net of proceeds used to fund the redemption of the Class A ordinary shares held by eligible shareholders who properly elect to have their shares redeemed as of the Closing).

	○	The issuance of an aggregate of 200,000 shares to vendors in connection with the Closing.

	○	The issuance of promissory notes for approximately $5.7 million to EF Hutton LLC, approximately $3.2 million to Greenberg Traurig LLP, and $603,623 to INFINT Capital LLC.

	○	Simultaneous with the Closing, New Seamless also completed a series of private financings, issuing a Convertible Note (convertible into 194,444 Ordinary Shares) for $1.94 million, 400,000 commitment shares, and warrants to purchase 136,110 Ordinary Shares in a private placement to a PIPE investor (the “PIPE Offering”), which raised $1.75 million in net proceeds.

Accounting for the Business Combination

Notwithstanding the legal form of the Business Combination pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the Business Combination is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, INFINT is treated as the acquired company for financial reporting purposes, and Seamless is treated as the accounting acquirer. In accordance with this accounting method, the Business Combination is treated as the equivalent of Seamless issuing stock for the net assets of INFINT, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of INFINT are stated at historical cost, with no goodwill recorded, and operations prior to the Business Combination are those of Seamless. Seamless is deemed the accounting acquirer for purposes of the Business Combination based on an evaluation of the following facts and circumstances:

	●	Seamless’ existing equity holders hold a majority voting interest in the Combined Company;

	●	Seamless’ existing equity holders have the ability to nominate and elect the majority of the Combined Company’s Board of Directors;

	●	Seamless’ existing senior management team comprise the senior management of the Combined Company; and

	●	Seamless’ operations comprise the ongoing operations of the Combined Company.

Basis of Pro Forma Presentation

In accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, pro forma transaction adjustments to the historical combined financial information of Seamless and INFINT only give effect to events that are both factually supportable and directly attributable to the Transactions. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not give effect to any synergies, operating efficiencies, or other benefits that may result from consummation of the Transactions. Seamless and INFINT have not had any historical relationship prior to the Business Combination. Therefore, preparation of the accompanying pro forma financial information did not require any adjustments related to such historical transactions other than an adjustment for the settlement of the balance on the promissory note owed by INFINT to Seamless (see Note 2, adjustment P).

Pursuant to INFINT’s current memorandum and articles of association, INFINT’s public shareholders were offered the opportunity to request that INFINT redeem their Class A ordinary shares for cash upon consummation of the Business Combination, irrespective of whether they vote for or against the Business Combination. If a public shareholder properly exercised its right to redemption of its shares, INFINT redeemed each share for cash equal to the public shareholder’s pro rata portion of the trust account.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared to reflect the redemption of 4,652,105 Class A ordinary shares outstanding for $54,846,559.

There are no pro forma adjustments related to the outstanding public warrants and private placement warrants issued in connection with the IPO that are classified as equity in INFINT’s historical balance sheet, as such securities continue to be classified as equity after the Closing.

The following table provides a pro forma summary of the number and percentage of ordinary shares of the Combined Company that would have been outstanding if the Transactions had occurred on June 30, 2024:

Pro Forma Ownership⁽¹⁾	New Seamless ordinary shares		% of Outstanding shares
Public shareholders⁽²⁾		94,916		0.20
Sponsor		4,483,026		9.63
Other converted Class B shareholders		1,250,058		2.69
Underwriters		99,999		0.22
Vendors		200,000		0.43
PIPE investor		400,000		0.86
Existing Seamless shareholders		40,000,000		85.97

(1) Excludes potential dilution from the exercise of warrants.

(2) Reflects the redemption of public shares (4,652,105 shares at a redemption price of $11.79 per share) upon the Business Combination.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been presented for illustrative purposes only. The pro forma adjustments represent estimates based on information available as of the date of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and are subject to change as additional information becomes available. The accounting for certain instruments, including those issued in the PIPE Offering, is subject to change as additional information becomes available and additional analyses are performed, and such changes could be material once the final accounting positions and valuations are determined by the Company. Assumptions and estimates underlying the pro forma adjustments set forth in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are described in the accompanying notes. The actual financial position and results of operations of the Combined Company subsequent to consummation of the Transactions may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRO FORMA PRESENTATION

The Business Combination is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, INFINT is treated as the acquired company for financial reporting purposes, and Seamless is treated as the accounting acquirer. The Business Combination is treated as the equivalent of Seamless issuing stock for the net assets of INFINT, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of INFINT are stated at historical cost, with no goodwill recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination are those of Seamless.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2024 assumes that the Transactions were completed on June 30, 2024. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and for the year ended December 31, 2023 give pro forma effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2023.

	●	The historical unaudited consolidated financial statements of Seamless as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the historical audited consolidated financial statements of Seamless as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023; and

	●	The historical unaudited financial statements of INFINT as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and the historical audited financial statements of INFINT as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Management has made significant estimates and assumptions in its determination of the pro forma adjustments. The pro forma adjustments, which are described in the accompanying notes, may be revised as additional information becomes available and is evaluated. Therefore, it is likely that the actual adjustments will differ from the pro forma adjustments, and it is possible the differences may be material. Management believes that its assumptions and methodologies provide a reasonable basis for presenting all of the significant effects of the Transactions based on information available to management as of the date of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, and the pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

NOTE 2 – ADJUSTMENTS TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED BALANCE SHEET AS OF JUNE 30, 2024

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2024 includes the following adjustments:

A – This column represents the historical consolidated balance sheet of Seamless as of June 30, 2024 prior to the divestiture of the Divested Entities, and with Seamless holding a 57.5% controlling financial interest in Dynamic Indonesia, the parent company of the WalletKu operating group, among other subsidiaries.

B – This column represents the combined impact of certain transactions required under the Business Combination Agreement that took place after the balance sheet date and prior to the Closing. Specifically, these transactions include: (1) the divestiture by Seamless of all of the equity interests that it owned in the Divested Entities such that the assets and liabilities of the Divested Entities are no longer included in the consolidated financial statements of Seamless, (2) the acquisition of an additional ownership share in Dynamic Indonesia, such that Seamless holds financial control of 79% of WalletKu, and (3) the exercise by the holder of a conversion right under the Convertible Bond Instrument to convert that instrument into Seamless shares (collectively, the “pre-Closing transactions”).

The transactions included in adjustments column B of the pro forma condensed combined balance sheet include:

C – As of June 30, 2024, Seamless owns 59.2% of Dynamic Indonesia, which owns 79% of the WalletKu operating group. The remaining 40.8% ownership in Dynamic Indonesia is reflected on the June 30, 2024 historical balance sheet as Noncontrolling interest subject to redemption because the remaining 40.8% ownership in Dynamic Indonesia is redeemable by the holder pursuant to a put option agreement. The holder exercised the put option prior to the Closing of the Business Combination, enabling Seamless to acquire the remaining shares of Dynamic Indonesia. Seamless then owned 100% of Dynamic Indonesia and thereby obtained 79% control over the WalletKu operating group. The put option agreement allowed Seamless to pay for the purchase price of the 40.8% interest in Dynamic Indonesia as well as to repay a loan with a principal amount of $2.04 million outstanding to the same party, by transferring new Seamless shares for the total. The pro forma adjustment C noted in the table above reflects the following:

Seamless shares issued:
Increase to common shares	$	660
Increase to additional paid-in capital		4,994,416
Consideration to acquire remaining shares of Dynamic Indonesia	$	4,995,076

Repayment of loan payable and reacquisition of noncontrolling interest:
Remove loan payable repaid with Seamless shares	$	(2,037,128	)
Remove noncontrolling interest reacquired with Seamless shares		(2,957,948	)
	$	(4,995,076	)

D – Represents the elimination of Seamless’ convertible bonds of $10,000,768 resulting from the bondholder’s election to convert such bond instruments into ordinary shares of Seamless prior to the Closing of the Business Combination. The convertible bonds are convertible into shares of Seamless in accordance with an amended and restated convertible bond instrument dated September 14, 2021 and are not directly convertible into shares of INFINT. Once converted into shares of Seamless, the bondholders will have the right to receive, in accordance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement and the Payment Spreadsheet (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), the number of New Seamless ordinary shares set forth in the Payment Spreadsheet. Thus, the shares held by the bondholders convert into INFINT shares in a proportion consistent with those of the other equity-holders of Seamless who will receive shares of INFINT upon the Closing of the Business Combination.

(1) Represents the shares held by INFINT’s public shareholders after giving effect to the redemption of the Class A ordinary shares upon consummation of the Business Combination.

(2) Represents the Class A ordinary shares granted as merger consideration in exchange for the ordinary shares held by Seamless’ existing shareholders.

(3) Represents the Class A ordinary shares held by the initial sponsors of INFINT, other shareholders and the Underwriters upon the one-for-one conversion of the Class B shares into Class A ordinary shares immediately prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.

(5) Represents the Class A ordinary shares issued in the PIPE Offering that occurred simultaneous with the Closing.

(6) The calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net loss per share assumes that the Transactions occurred as of January 1, 2023. Thus, consistent with this assumption, the weighted average shares outstanding reflect the ordinary shares as outstanding for the entire six months ended June 30, 2024 and year ended December 31, 2023.

Potentially dilutive shares have been deemed to be anti-dilutive due to the net loss position and, accordingly, have been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share. Potentially dilutive shares that have been excluded from the determination of diluted loss per share include 17,796,782 outstanding warrants issued in connection with the INFINT IPO and Private Placement, and 194,444 shares subject to conversion and warrants to purchase 136,110 shares issued pursuant to the PIPE Offering.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

2	Summary of significant accounting policies

(a)

Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2024 and the results of operations for the Six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary in order to make the consolidated financial statements not misleading have been included. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and accordingly do not include all of the disclosures normally made in the Company’s annual financial statements. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

(b)

Going concern

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company had cash balances of $48.6 million, a working capital deficit of $76 million and net capital deficit $42.5 million. For the Six months period ended June 30, 2024, the Company had a net loss of $6.2 million and net cash used in operating activities of $2.1 million. Net cash used in investing activities was $0.2 million. Net cash generated from financing activities was $0.2 million, resulting principally from proceeds of borrowings.

While the Company believes that it will be able to continue to grow the Company’s revenue base and control expenditures, there is no assurance that it will be able to achieve these goals. As a result, the Company continually monitors its capital structure and operating plans and evaluates various potential funding alternatives that may be needed to finance the Company’s business development activities, general and administrative expenses and growth strategy.

(c)

Use of estimates

The preparation of the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Certain accounting estimates of the Company require a higher degree of judgment than others in their application. These include valuation of goodwill, provision for credit losses, impairment of long-lived assets, impairment of equity investee, valuation of convertible bonds and the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates, and such differences may be material.

(d)

Revenue recognition

The Company complies with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

Revenue from contracts with customers is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer net of sales and service tax, returns, rebates and discounts. The Company recognizes revenue when (or as) it transfers control over a product or service to its customer. An asset is transferred when (or as) the customer obtains control of the asset. Depending on the substance of the contract, revenue is recognized when the performance obligation is satisfied, which may be at a point in time or over time.

Contract assets represent the Company’s right to consideration for performance obligations that have been fulfilled but for which the customer has not been billed as of the balance sheet date.

2	Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

Remittance services revenue

Revenue from contracts with customers on service charges and gain/loss on foreign exchange arising from remittance activities are recognized upon the processing and execution of the international money transfer transactions. Remittance services are further divided into Fiat Currency Prefunded Remittance Service and XRP Prefunded Remittance Service. Management has considered these two services to be two product lines.

The customers of the remittance services are financial institutions (referred to as “Remittance Partners”). Remittance Partners who use the fiat currency prefunding option for their remittance business with the Company are referred to as Fiat Currency Prefunded Remittance Partners, whereas customers who choose the XRP Prefunding mode are referred to as XRP Prefunded Remittance Partners.

Fiat Currency Prefunded Remittance Service

The Company earns revenue by charging their customers a Fiat Currency Prefunded Remittance Fee when they use the Company’s platform to transfer money to a beneficiary in another country. These Fiat Currency Prefunded Remittance Fees are fixed and specific for every country’s currency and are charged at the point-in-time of executing this performance obligation. Prior to delivering cash to the customer’s beneficiary, the customer must directly provide the Company with prefunding (i.e., the cash to be remitted to the beneficiary). This is the traditional prefunding process, which the Company describes as Fiat Currency Prefunded Remittance Service.

XRP Prefunded Remittance Service

Unlike the Fiat Currency Prefunded Remittance Service, the customer obtains prefunding through Ripple Solution offered by Ripple Lab Inc. (see Note 8) with the XRP Prefunded Remittance Service. Ripple supplies the customer with the XRP equivalent of the requested prefunding. The Company subsequently liquidates this XRP on Ripple’s behalf, and the fiat currency obtained as a result of the liquidation process is transferred to the customer’s beneficiary. Customers who prefund their remittance service with XRP must enter into an agreement with Ripple and undergo stringent credit checks in order to get XRP prefunding and use Ripple’s platform. The Company charges their customers an XRP Prefunded Remittance Service Fee when the money is transferred to the customer’s beneficiary.

For both the XRP Prefunded and Fiat Currency Prefunded Remittance Services, the Company has no obligations to the customer in terms of guarantees, warranties or other similar obligations. There are also no significant payment terms involved as the Company obtains their fees shortly after charging their customers.

Sales Walletku Modern Channel

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized at the point in time when the Company satisfies their performance obligation, which is upon delivery of the goods to the customer. The credit terms are typically 3-7 days.

Sales of airtime

Revenue from airtime sold is recognized when the relevant international airtime transfer or reload request is processed and executed.

Other services

Revenue from contracts with customers on other services is recognized as and when services are rendered.

Segments

As the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) of the Company, the Chief Executive Officer reviews the financial results when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing the performance of the Company. TNG (Asia) Limited (“TNGA”), the Tranglo Sdn BHD and related subsidiaries (“Tranglo”), GEA Limited and GEA Pte Ltd. (“GEA”) and PT Walletku Indompet Indonesia (“Walletku”) are all considered operating segments. These have been aggregated into two reportable segments, which are remittance services and sales of airtime, as described in Note 6. Other services are not assigned to a specific reportable segment as their results of operations are immaterial.

The remittance segment is operated through TNGA, GEA and Tranglo. TNGA and GEA are in the retail remittance business in Hong Kong, which is in the upstream segment of the remittance business, whereas Tranglo operates the remittance hub covering Southeast Asia and globally, and is thus in the downstream segment of the remittance business. Management operates, monitors and evaluates the whole remittance business through these three subsidiaries so as to generate the maximum synergy and create maximum value for the Company.

The Company operates the airtime segment via their international airtime transfer business through Tranglo and their retail airtime trading business locally in Indonesian through WalletKu. As with the remittance segment, management believes maximum synergy and business value can best be achieved by aggregating and managing the airtime business through these two subsidiaries.

(f)

Share-based compensation

The Company accounts for share-based payments in accordance with ASC Topic 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”), under which the fair value of awards issued to employees is expensed over the period in which the awards vest.

The Company had an incentive plan approved and adopted on September 13, 2018, namely the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan. Under the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, a total of 2,591,543 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and 978,397 options with an exercise price of $12.87 had been awarded to certain directors and employees. All RSUs and options granted under the 2018 Incentive Plan had not been vested. The 2018 Incentive Plan was later terminated on July 29, 2022 and replaced by the new 2022 Incentive Plan. All previous awarded RSUs and options under the 2018 Incentive Plan were voided. Under the 2022 Incentive Plan, a total of 5,803,000 shares are reserved and granted to employees of the Company.

All shares granted under the 2022 Incentive Plan will be vested upon (i) the completion of an IPO or (ii) the completion of a de SPAC merger. The Incentive shares will then be vested under a trust. The trustee will distribute the vested shares to the staff based on a schedule of (i) one third immediately upon the vesting of Incentive shares at the time of completion of IPO or de SPAC, (ii) one third on the first anniversary date thereafter, (iii) one third on the second anniversary date thereafter.

The fair value of the awards granted on July 29, 2022 is $32,790,450, after accounting for the forfeiture of 430,000 shares as of June 30, 2024. This also represents the unrecognized compensation, as the performance condition of the completion of an IPO or de-SPAC is not within the Company’s control.

Prefunding to remittances partner

Prefunding to remittance partner represents deposits made with such a partner for remittance services to be rendered by the partner in the future. The prepayments are utilized when a remittance order is executed by the partner and the resulting amount of the order is deducted from the balance with the partner.

We allow our remittance partners to prefund their balance through cryptocurrencies. These cryptocurrencies are mainly XRP. Ripple provides the XRP upon request to the Company and our remittance partners. Under applicable accounting standards, we are an agent when facilitating cryptocurrency transactions on behalf of our customers. These cryptocurrencies are held under a bailment arrangement in an account in the Company’s name on behalf of our business partner but they are not Seamless’ assets and therefore, are not reflected as cryptocurrency assets on our consolidated balance sheets . Although the Company does not control the XRP in the bailment account, we are responsible for safeguarding the XRP in the bailment account.

Independent Reserve SG Pte Ltd (“Independent Reserve”), Philippine Digital Asset Exchange (“Pdax”), Betur, Inc. (“Coins.ph”) and Bitstamp Global Limited (“Bitstamp”) (collectively, the “Cryptocurrency Exchanges”) are centralized crypto exchanges which keep the cryptographic keys for each respective XRP wallet and provide the Company with its respective API access keys. The Company is the only party that holds the API access keys that grant it direct access to its XRP wallet maintained on the respective Cryptocurrency Exchange. The Cryptocurrency Exchanges maintain records of all assets deposited by its users and send statements to the Company. The Company reconciles its internal ODL transaction records to the statements received from the Cryptocurrency Exchanges to ensure that these are accurate. The Company has an obligation to protect the API access keys from being abused or stolen. The Company is responsible for any damages caused by loss or theft.

Due to the unique risks associated with cryptocurrencies, including technological, legal, and regulatory risks, in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 121 (“SAB 121”), we recognize a crypto asset safeguarding liability to reflect our obligation to safeguard the crypto assets held in the bailment account, which is recorded in Accounts payable, accruals and other payables on our consolidated balance sheet. We also recognize a corresponding safeguarding asset which is recorded in Prepayments, receivables and other assets on our consolidated balance sheet. The crypto asset safeguarding liability and corresponding safeguarding asset are measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis using prices available in the market we determine to be the principal market at the balance sheet date. The corresponding safeguarding asset may be adjusted for loss events, as applicable. As of June 30, 2024, the Company has not incurred any safeguarding loss events, and therefore, the crypto asset safeguarding liability and corresponding safeguarding asset were recorded at the same value. Safeguarding assets as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are $1,942,244 and $1,983,116 respectively. Safeguarding liabilities as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are $1,942,244 and $1,983,116 respectively.

(h)

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, without consideration of potentially dilutive securities.

Diluted net earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares and potentially dilutive securities outstanding for the period. If there is a loss, potentially dilutive securities are not considered, as they would be anti-dilutive.

Exhibit 99.3

Management’s Discussion and ANALYSIS of financial condition and results of operations of seamless

You should read the following discussion and analysis of Seamless’ financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the section entitled “Selected Consolidated Financial Data and Operating Data” and its consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this proxy statement and prospectus. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Seamless’ actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this proxy statement and prospectus.

Overview

Seamless, through its two major lines of business, remittance and airtime, is a leading operator of global money transfer services and airtime trading in Southeast Asia. The remittance business facilitates users in different countries sending money from one country to another in a low cost and efficient manner. The airtime business sells airtime to users in different countries worldwide, including retail users in Indonesia. Seamless operates the two different business lines through four main subsidiaries: Tranglo, WalletKu, TNG Asia and GEA. Seamless operates the global remittance business mainly through Tranglo, which is one of the leading money remittance platforms in Southeast Asia. TNG Asia and GEA are also in the remittance business which target retail customers and generated the majority of revenues by providing remittance services to retail users. TNG Asia and GEA place their remittance orders to Tranglo, and therefore are considered upstream operators of the remittance business, whereas Tranglo, which provides business-to-business (“B2B”) remittance services for financial institutions such as TNG Asia and GEA, is considered a downstream player of the remittance industry. Seamless also provides cross-border international airtime transfer services through Tranglo, acting as a switching platform provider for telecom airtime transfer and a wholesale reseller of foreign airtime. Seamless also runs WalletKu, which is an Indonesian airtime operator facing end users directly. Seamless will divest its ownership of TNG Asia and GEA prior to the closing of the Business Combination.

Tranglo is a leading global money and airtime transfer hub in Southeast Asia. For Tranglo’s money remittance business, it provides a single unified application programming interface for licensed banks and money service operators and acts as a one-stop settlement agent for cross-border money transfer, offering customers the ability to process payments globally. At June 30, 2024, Tranglo had more than 5,000 bank partners, 35 eWallets, 130,000 cash pick-up points, and 124 corporate clients for remittances, with a remittance network covering more than 70 countries. It managed over 11.2 million transactions with a total value of $3.55 billion for the year ended December 31, 2022. As for the year ended December 31, 2023, Tranglo processed around 11.0 million transactions with a total value of $4.54 billion, which represents a minor decrease in volume by 1.8% as compared to 11.2 million transactions, and a growth in value by approximately 28% as compared to the total processing value of $3.55 billion for the year ended December 31, 2022. As for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Tranglo processed around 5.8 million transactions with a total processing value of $2.7 billion, which represents a growth in volume by 7.4% as compared to 5.4 million transactions, and a growth in total processing value by 22.7% as compared to the total processing value of $2.2 billion for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. As for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, the top four sending countries for Tranglo’s remittance business were UK, Hong Kong, Singapore and Korea, whereas the top four receiving countries were Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam. The predominant portion of Tranglo’s Hong Kong related revenue is derived from two customers, TNG Asia and GEA, which have been divested by Seamless prior to Business Combination, are expected to remain customers after the Divestiture. Based on the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 operating results, post-Divestiture, Seamless expects that the percentage of revenue generated in Hong Kong and the PRC would continue to represent approximately 7.6% of Seamless Group’s total revenue.

The number of Tranglo unique users increased from 949,000 users as of December 31, 2022 to 1,032,000 as of December 31, 2023, and the number of global money transfer transactions decreased mildly from 11.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2022 to 11.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2023. The number of average monthly unique sending accounts has also increased from 267,201 in 2022 to 330,571 in 2023. The number of unique users increased to 820,000 as of June 30, 2024 from 705,000 as of June 30, 2023, while the number of global money transfer transactions increased from 5.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 to 5.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024. The number of average monthly unique sending accounts increased from 325,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 to 367,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024.

Tranglo is also a global airtime transfer hub, offering cross-border airtime wholesale and transfer services. At June 30, 2024, Tranglo has partnered with more than 500 mobile operators that cover 150 countries and served more than 40 airtime corporate customers. Tranglo managed over 5.3 million transactions with a total value of $12.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, which compared to 7.7 million transactions with a total value of $18.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. As for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Tranglo processed 2.2 million airtime transfer transactions with a total value of $5.0 million, representing a decrease of 21.8% in volume and 23.1% in value as compared to 2.8 million transactions with a total value of $6.5 million for the six-month ended June 30, 2023. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, the airtime unique user accounts decreased to 426,000, representing a decline of 24.4% as compared to 564,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. The monthly average unique sending accounts also decreased to 145,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, representing a decline of 21.1% as compared to 184,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

WalletKu is an independent electronic platform in Indonesia directly facing end users, and allows its customers to purchase airtime and conduct internet data top-up. WalletKu platform also allows users to conduct cash top-up, transfers, and utility or bill payments. WalletKu is also a participant in the Indosat Cluster Partnership for managing the marketing work of Indosat telecommunication and airtime products in two cluster areas in Indonesia. WalletKu served approximately 132,000 customers as of June 30, 2024, distributing airtime with a total value of $6.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024.

TNG Asia operates an eWallet operation in Hong Kong, targeting the niche market of overseas workers, i.e., Philippine and Indonesian overseas domestic workers living in Hong Kong. There are currently over 350,000 overseas domestic workers in Hong Kong. TNG Asia strives to provide financial services to these overseas workers who are often denied normal banking services, sometimes referred to as “unbankable.” Also, these overseas workers have a strong demand for remitting money back to their homelands on a regular basis. Unlike traditional eWallet payment companies which generate most of their revenue through merchant purchases or payments, TNG Asia generates 80-95% of its revenue by offering the money remittance services to these overseas workers. As at June 30, 2024, TNG eWallet has more than 926,000 members or end users. TNG Asia processed around 0.85 million remittance transactions with a total processing value of around $197 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, which compared to 1.15 million transactions with a total processing value of around $264 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

GEA is a remittance agent which mainly serves TNG Asia in remitting money to overseas countries. GEA provides a prefunding facility for TNG Asia and conducts foreign exchange (“Forex”) conversion for TNG Asia’s customers. GEA also provides currency conversion and remittance services for other clients and earns revenue via Forex spread markups.

Tranglo, TNG Asia and GEA are all involved in the global money remittance business. Tranglo serves mostly banks and financial institutions and thus is a B2B remittance platform. On the other hand, TNG Asia operates an eWallet in Hong Kong, which serves as the business-to-customer (“B2C”) retail remittance operator. TNG Asia has been placing most, if not all, of its remittance orders to GEA for processing and is the most important client of GEA. GEA’s income from clients other than TNG Asia has been insignificant as compared to that from TNG Asia. In turn, GEA places most of its orders to Tranglo for processing. Therefore, TNG Asia and GEA are customers of Tranglo and are expected to continue to be so following the divestitures. See the section entitled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information” for additional information regarding the financial effects of the divestitures. Although immediately following the divestitures, Seamless will not provide remittance services directly to individuals, it may develop those services in the future.

Seamless’ business model is highly scalable and transferrable to other geographic markets. Through its connection with RippleNet, Tranglo’s global money remittance network could be expanded rapidly and extended to cover more regions and countries globally. Moreover, the knowledge and experience it has gained through its Indonesian and eWallet operations has helped it to understand the pain points faced by individuals and merchants in Asian markets, and facilitate its development on infrastructure, product and compliance processes of its future B2C services which cover payment, remittance, airtime trading or other fintech operations. This will allow it to rapidly replicate and build up its business across its core markets in Southeast Asian and Middle East countries, e.g., the Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Abu Dhabi.

Historically, Seamless has derived its revenue from operations centered in Malaysia, Indonesia and Hong Kong, but servicing transactions and customers located throughout Southeast Asia and globally. Following the divestitures, Seamless’ operations will be based in Malaysia and Indonesia but, as discussed above, generate significant revenue from cross-border transactions throughout Southeast Asia and globally.

In connection with a capital raise for WalletKu in 2021 to fund an expansion of WalletKu’s business by participating in the Indosat Partnership program, Seamless disposed of a controlling stake of WalletKu on March 9, 2021, resulting in WalletKu no longer be accounted for as a subsidiary of Seamless beginning in March 2021. In connection with a further capital for WalletKu in 2022 to address WalletKu’s working capital requirements in which the controlling shareholder did not participate, Seamless reacquired a controlling interest in WalletKu in June 2022, resulting in WalletKu being accounted for as a subsidiary of Seamless beginning in June 2022. These transactions had the effect of causing WalletKu’s contribution to the consolidated assets, revenue and other statement of operations items to fluctuate as WalletKu was deconsolidated and then reconsolidated.

Seamless’ revenue was $53.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, which decreased by 4% as compared to $55.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. This is mainly due to a decline of more than 34% in Tranglo’s airtime business, from $18.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, to $12.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The overall remittance revenues were $26.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was at roughly the same level of the year ended December 31, 2022. On the other hand, the revenue generated by the Indonesian airtime business, WalletKu, increased from $10.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to $14.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. This was mainly due to Seamless’ consolidation of approximately 7 months of operating results of WalletKu since reacquiring the control over WalletKu in June 2022, whereas in the year ended December 31, 2023, Seamless included the full year operating results of WalletKu.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Seamless’ revenue decreased by 11.4% to $24.1 million as compared to $27.2 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2023. Remittance revenue decreased by 5.9% from $13.6 million to $12.8 million due to a decline in the remittance revenue of TNG Asia in the first six months of 2024. Also, the global airtime transfer business continued its decline by 23.1% from $6.5 million to $5.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. Seamless’ Indonesian airtime revenue decreased slightly by 11.4% to $6.2million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, which compared to $7.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

For its money transfer business, Seamless generates two main streams of remittance revenue, namely the transaction fees which are charged on every cross-border money transfer transaction, and currency conversion fees, i.e., Forex Gains, which are charged through add-on currency spreads on the conversion of currencies for its customers. Both TNG Asia and Tranglo generate remittance revenues by charging users the transaction fees and Forex spreads. Seamless’ remittance revenue has been contributed mostly by Tranglo’s remittance business, and Seamless’ remittance revenue was $26.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was at roughly the same level as the year ended December 31, 2022.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Seamless’ remittance revenue decreased by 5.9% to $12.8 million as compared to $13.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. The decrease was mainly due to a decline in remittance revenue contributed by TNG Asia during the period.

Previously, Tranglo offered only the Fiat prefunding remittance services for its clients. In late 2021, Tranglo started to offer a new line of remittance services – the ODL prefunding remittance services – for its customers. As Tranglo charges lower transaction fees and currency conversion fees for its ODL remittance flows, and as the keen market competition has exerted pressure on Tranglo’s pricings, there has been a continual decline in Tranglo’s overall take rates for its remittance services in the past two years. As a result, the remittance revenue contributed by Tranglo for the year ended December 31, 2023 declined slightly by 3% to $19.4 million as compared to $20.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, despite that the TPV increased by 28% to $4.54 billion for the year 2023, as compared to $3.55 billion for the year 2022. On the other hand, the remittance revenue contributed by TNG Asia and GEA increased by 14% to $9.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to $8.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, due to its pricing competitiveness, Tranglo succeeded in capturing higher market share and expanding its market reach and as a result, Tranglo’s TPV increased by 33.3% as measured in RM. However, when converted to the USD, the TPV increased by only 22.7%, from $2.2 billion to $2.7 billion. As a result of the declining in take rates by 21.7%, Tranglo’s remittance revenue remained unchanged at $9.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. On the other hand, the remittance revenue contributed by TNG Asia and GEA decreased by 24.5% to $3.7 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 as compared to $4.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

There was a temporary suspension of ODL services for most of Tranglo’s active ODL partners in mid of March 2023 due to market turmoil and illiquidity of the crypto market, and that the recovery of ODL flows had been slow thereafter. The market turmoil appeared after the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank, Silvergate Bank and Signature Bank around March 2023. As most of the crypto exchanges and market makers maintain their operating accounts with Silvergate and Signature Banks, the collapse of these banks led to illiquidity of the crypto market, and the inability of crypto exchanges to liquidate XRP for supporting ODL transactions. As such, both Ripple and Tranglo agreed to suspend most of the ODL services temporarily. Despite Ripple and Tranglo resuming most of the ODL services after two weeks of temporary suspension, many ODL partners relied more on the fiat prefunding means for their remittance flows via Tranglo’s platform, and thus were slow in resuming their ODL flows. As a result, Tranglo’s ODL flows still represented only 9.9% of the total processing value of Tranglo in December 2023, which compared to 26% of the total processing value in February 2023. For the year ended December 31, 2023, Tranglo’s ODL flows represented 10.5% of its total processing value, which compared to that of 20.3% for the year ended December 31, 2022. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, the ODL flows represented 5.5% of its total processing value, as compared to 13.8% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

Total processing value (“TPV”) is the total cross-border remittance funds processed and sent by Tranglo during the relevant period. The overall total transaction fees take rate is calculated by dividing the total transaction fees charged for the remittance transactions processed by the corresponding TPV for those transactions. The overall Forex gains take rate is calculated by dividing the total foreign exchange gains obtained on the remittance transactions processed by the TPV for those transactions. The payout agency rate is calculated by dividing the direct costs paid by Tranglo to payout agents for processing the remittance money payouts for the remittance transactions by the TPV for those transactions. The gross profit gain rate is measured by dividing the gross profit generated by Tranglo’s remittance business by the TPV for the remittance transactions processed.

Tranglo monitors these metrics to better understand the performance of its business, to compare the impact of different fees and cost structures internally and with competitor of different scales, and to develop pricing strategies and gauge price competitiveness and profitability of different remittance operators. The fees and Forex Gain take rates are also important parameters for Tranglo to assess if the fees and prices being offered are competitive in the market, and the payout rate is monitored by Tranglo with a view toward cost control and reinforcing profitability. Similarly, investors can use these metrics to understand the performance of Tranglo’s business, the relationship between growth in TPV, growth in revenue and changes in the gross profit gain rate.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, Tranglo processed 11.2 million remittance transactions, with the average transaction size being RM1,401 or $318. As a result, the total processing value was $3.55 billion for the year ended December 31, 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2023, Tranglo processed 11.0 million transactions which represented a slight decrease of 2% as compared to the 11.2 million transactions for the year ended December 31, 2022. However, as the average transaction size increased to RM1,881, or $413, the total procession value increased by approximately 28% from $3.55 billion to $4.54 billion for the year ended December 31, 2023.

As measured in RM, the total processing value for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased by 32.7% to RM20.7 billion as compared to RM15.6 billion for the year ended December 31, 2022. When converted to USD, Tranglo’s total processing value increased by 28% from $3.55 billion for the year ended December 31, 2022, to $4.54 billion for the year ended December 31, 2023.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Tranglo processed 5.8 million remittance transactions, with an average transaction size of RM2,188. This represents an increase of 7.4% in remittance volume and a growth of 23.1% in the average transaction size, as compared to 5.4 million transactions and an average transaction size of RM1,778 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. As a result, as measured in RM, the total processing value for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 increased by 33.3% to RM12.8 billion as compared to RM9.6 billion for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. When converted to USD, Tranglo’s total processing value increased by 22.7% from $2.2 billion for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, to $2.7 billion for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024.

Tranglo’s average transaction fee take rate and the currency conversion take rate (Forex gain rate) as measured in RM for the year ended December 31, 2022 were 0.45% and 0.12%, respectively, making the average total take rate for the year 2022 0.57%. When converted into USD, the total average take rate was 0.56% for the year 2022. As a result, Tranglo’s remittance revenue was $20.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. Tranglo’s average transaction fee take rate and currency conversion take rate as measured in RM declined to 0.32% and 0.11%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2023, making the total average take rate of 0.43% for the year 2023. This represented a decline of 25% as compared to 0.57% for the year 2022. When converted into USD, the total average take rate was 0.43% which generated $19.4 million remittance revenue for Tranglo for the year 2023.

Tranglo’s average transaction fee take rate and the currency conversion take rate (Forex gain rate) as measured in RM for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 were 0.35% and 0.11%, respectively, making the average total take rate of 0.46%. When converted into USD, the total average take rate was the same 0.46% for the same period in 2023. As a result, Tranglo’s remittance revenue was $9.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. Tranglo’s average transaction fee take rate and currency conversion take rate as measured in RM declined to 0.27% and 0.09%, respectively, making the total average take rate of 0.36% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024. This represented a decline of 21.7% as compared to 0.46% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. When converted into USD, the total average take rate was also the same 0.36% which generated $9.8 million remittance revenue for Tranglo for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024.

Previously, Tranglo offered only the Fiat prefunding remittance services for its clients, i.e. the Fiat Remittance Partners (“Fiat RPs”). In late 2021, Tranglo started to offer a new line of remittance services – the ODL prefunding remittance services – for its ODL Remittance Partners (“ODL RPs”). Many of Tranglo’s ODL RPs are also Fiat RPs and thus can make use of either Tranglo’s Fiat prefunding services or ODL prefunding services.

In addition to intense market competition and the downward pricing pressure, Tranglo’s integration with RippleNet and On-Demand Liquidity facility of Ripple and the commencement of its ODL prefunding remittance services in August 2021 has further pushed down its overall fees offered to the market. As part of the RippleNet and ODL arrangement, Tranglo has offered lower transaction fees and lower currency conversion fees for those clients who submit their orders using ODL prefunding facilities. Moreover, the ODL system allows clients to directly convert their sending currencies into the recipient currencies, like from USD to Philippine Peso, thus bypassing the need for Tranglo to conduct currency conversion. In that case, Tranglo would not be able to charge currency conversion fees for certain ODL remittance flows. Since Tranglo integrated with RippleNet in August 2021, and started offering the ODL remittance services, the ODL remittance flows increased significantly in the year 2022. For the year end December 31, 2022, the ODL flows increased substantially to represent 20.3% of the total processing value.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, Tranglo’s average transaction fee take rate and the average Forex gain take rate as measured in RM were 0.45% and 0.12%, respectively, making the total average take rate of 0.57%. As for the year ended December 31, 2023, the average transaction fee take rate and the average Forex gain take rate as measured in RM declined to 0.32% and 0.11%, respectively, making the total average take rate of 0.43% which represented a decline of 25% in the average total take rate. Both the take rates of Fiat remittances and ODL remittances declined during the periods. When converted into USD, the total average take rate decreased to 0.43% for the year ended December 31, 2023, which represented a decline of 23% as compared to 0.56% for the year ended December 31, 2022. On the other hand, due to lower fees in both Tranglo’s Fiat and ODL remittance services, Tranglo succeeded in capturing higher market share and expanding its market reach and as a result, Tranglo’s TPV increased by 33.5% as measured in RM. However, when converted to the USD, the TPV increased by only 28%, from $3.55 billion to $4.54 billion. As a result of the decline in take rates by 23%, Tranglo’s remittance revenue decreased by 3% to $19.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $20.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, Tranglo’s average transaction fee take rate and the average Forex gain take rate as measured in RM were 0.35% and 0.11%, respectively, making the total average take rate of 0.46%. As for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, the average transaction fee take rate and the average Forex gain take rate as measured in RM declined to 0.27% and 0.09%, respectively, making the total average take rate of 0.36% which represented a decline of 21.7% in the average total take rate. The overall take rate of Fiat remittances declined, while that of ODL remittances remained relatively stable during the periods. When converted into USD, the total average take rate was also 0.36% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, which represented a decline of 21.7% as compared to 0.46% for the same period in the year of 2023.

On the other hand, due to its pricing competitiveness, Tranglo succeeded in capturing higher market share and expanding its market reach and as a result, Tranglo’s TPV increased by 33.3% as measured in RM. However, when converted to the USD, the TPV increased by only 22.7%, from $2.2 billion to $2.7 billion. As a result of the declining in take rates by 21.7%, Tranglo’s remittance revenue remained unchanged as $9.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period of the year 2023.

The market competition and downward pricing pressure affects both the upstream and downstream players of the global remittance industry. In order to maintain its competitiveness, Tranglo has to offer very competitive fees for the market while also striving to control its direct costs. Tranglo has been working to lower its direct remittance payout costs. The average payout rate of Tranglo was 0.23% for the year ended December 31, 2022, which declined by 35% to 0.15% for the year ended December 31, 2023. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, the average payout rate of Tranglo further declined to 0.11%, representing a decline of 31% as compared to 0.16% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

Seamless believes that as the global remittance industry grows rapidly and more competitors have been entering into the market, the downward pressure on pricing is inevitable. In the end, only those who could provide the most cost effective, efficient and reliable services could survive and thrive in the market. Although a decline in transaction fees and Forex take rates would lead to a lower gross profit margin and lower revenue growth in the short term, Seamless believes that by staying competitive in terms of pricing and maintaining low costs on operation, it could eventually capture more market share and expand its business scope and scale in the long run. Tranglo’s integration with RippleNet and ODL is also pivotal to its future development as Tranglo can now offer to its customers ample prefunding liquidity through the use of ODL’s prefunding facility, which many of Tranglo’s competitors could not. Also, Tranglo may make use of the ODL facility itself, and obtain extra liquidity which allows Tranglo to better manage its liquidity and cash position. This is especially important when Tranglo is expanding its remittance business and airtime business scope which requires a larger working capital.

By December 31, 2022, Tranglo had 87 active business partners who adopted the traditional fiat prefunding means. By December 31, 2023, the number of Tranglo’s active partners adopting the fiat prefunding means decreased slightly to 85, while Tranglo still managed to grow its total processing value by 32.7% as measured in RM, and 27.6% as measured in USD, during the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to the year 2022. By June 30, 2024, Tranglo’s active remittance partners adopting the Fiat prefunding means slightly declined to 84 while Tranglo managed to grow its remittance TPV by 33.3% as measured in RM, and 22.7% as measured in USD. On the other hand, the number of active ODL partners decreased to 8 by December 31, 2023, and further declined to 6 by June 30, 2024. This was due to a temporary suspension of ODL services in mid-March 2023 when Ripple and Tranglo suspended its ODL services for 9 out of 11 active ODL users as a result of market turmoil and illiquidity in crypto market. The market turmoil appeared after the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank, Silvergate Bank and Signature Bank around March 2023. As most of the crypto exchanges and market makers maintain their operating accounts with Silvergate and Signature Banks, the collapse of these banks led to illiquidity of the crypto market, and the inability of crypto exchanges to liquidate XRP for supporting ODL transactions. As such, both Ripple and Tranglo agreed to suspend most of the ODL services temporarily. Despite Ripple and Tranglo resuming most of the ODL services after two weeks of temporary suspension, many ODL partners relied more on making use of Fiat remittance services of Tranglo, and also, Ripple has tightened its ODL services and increased the fees for ODL remittance partners since then. As a result, many of Tranglo’s remittance partners were slow in resuming their use of Tranglo’s ODL services. As a result, Tranglo’s ODL flows represented only 13.6% of the total processing value of Tranglo in March 2023, which compared to 26% of the total processing value in February 2023. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Tranglo’s ODL flows represented only 5.5% of the TPV, whereas the Fiat prefunding remittance flows represented 94.5% of the TPV. This compared to 21.7% from ODL flows for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023. Despite Tranglo’s ODL remittance services lack of recovery, due to an increase in Fiat remittance business, Tranglo still managed to grow its total TPV to RM2.1 billion for the month of December 2023, which represented a significant increase as compared to the TPV of RM1.35 billion for the month of February 2023 and the TPV of RM1.58 billion for the month of March 2023. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Tranglo’s remittance TPV further increased by 33.3% to RM12.8 billion, as compared to RM9.6 billion for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

TNG Asia also generates transaction fee revenue and forex gain revenues for its remittance business. The transaction fees charged are recorded as Net Revenue, whereas the Forex Gain of TNG Asia is recorded under “Other Income” as “Forex Gain”.

In early 2022, the Hong Kong government removed the border restrictions and inflow of overseas migrant workers started to increase. Also, as GEA had integrated with ODL in September 2021, GEA was able to offer TNG Asia low cost and highly competitive remittance services in the market, in addition to ample prefunding liquidity. As such, TNG Asia took the initiative and initiated an aggressive marketing campaign to recapture and expand its market share. As a result, for the year ended December 31, 2022, TNG Asia processed 2.1 million remittance transactions, with a total processing value of $505 million. TNG Asia’s remittance revenue was $8.34 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2023, TNG Asia processed 2.3 million remittance transactions with a processing value of $531 million, representing 9.5% and 5.1% increases, respectively, when compared to 2.1 million transactions with a total processing value of $505 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The average total take rate of TNG Asia was 1.36% which generated $8.3 million remittance revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, TNG Asia’s average total take rate was 1.5% which generated a remittance revenue of $9.6 million. Besides an increase in take rate, the increase in TNG Asia’s remittance revenue during the period was also contributed by an increase in TPV by 5%, from $505 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to $531 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.

As the market competition intensified, TNG Asia’s remittance business suffered a setback during 2024. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, TNG Asia processed around 850,000 remittance transactions with a processing value of $197 million, representing declines of 26% and 25%, respectively, when compared to 1.15 million transactions with a total processing value of $264 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. The average total take rate of TNG Asia was 1.5% which generated $3.7 million remittance revenue for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, which was similar to the average total take rate of 1.5% that generated $4.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

GEA’s remittance revenue was $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. As for the year ended December 31, 2023, GEA’s revenue was $2.6 million, which remained roughly the same level as compared to the year 2022. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, GEA’s remittance revenue was $1.0 million, representing a decline of 23% as compared to the $1.3 million remittance revenue for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

As TNG Asia has submitted almost all of its remittance transactions to GEA, which in turn has placed the remittance orders to Tranglo for processing, most of TNG Asia’s and GEA’s remittance revenue is also accounted for as remittance revenue of Tranglo. This overlapping in remittance revenues for TNG Asia, GEA and Tranglo, which were $4.3 million and $4.9 million for the year 2022 and 2023, respectively, are eliminated in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for Seamless. After this elimination, the total remittance revenue for Seamless was $26.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, and it remained relatively unchanged for the year ended December 31, 2023.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, the overlapping in remittance revenues was $1.7 million, which compared to $2.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. After the elimination, the total remittance revenue for Seamless was $12.8 million, representing a slight decrease of 5.9% as compared to $13.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

The other major business segment of Seamless is its international airtime transfer business. Seamless operates the international airtime transfer business under Tranglo, acting as a switching platform provider for telecom airtime transfer and wholesale reseller of foreign airtime. Its proprietary technology supports both pin and pin-less airtime transfers. Currently, Tranglo operates one of the biggest airtime transfer networks in the world, providing access to over 500 mobile operators across 150 countries. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Seamless’ top three airtime corridors were Malaysia-Indonesia (50.9% of total global airtime revenue), Malaysia-Bangladesh (10.4% of total global airtime revenue) and UAE-Indonesia (3.9% of total global airtime revenue), which collectively accounted for 65.2% of its total airtime transfers in that period. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, the top four sending countries for Tranglo’s global airtime business were Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, UAE and Ireland, whereas the top four receiving countries were Indonesia, Bangladesh, Philippines and Nepal. These countries all have large underserved populations. The revenue for Seamless’ international airtime transfer business was $18.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. In early 2022 when COVID pandemic seriously affected Malaysia and the government started to impose border closures, many migrant or overseas workers in Malaysia left the country in the midst of the border restriction. The shrinkage of overseas workers in Malaysia was further exacerbated by a government imposed freeze on the hiring of foreign workers. The border restriction was not eased until the second half of 2022, albeit slowly. As a result, Seamless’ global airtime business was adversely affected since early 2022 and the impact continued and became worse in the year 2023. Moreover, more and more free Wi-Fi is now made available to the people in many Southeast Asian countries, especially in Malaysia and Indonesia. This has led to significant change in consumers’ behavior in these two countries, and that the needs for buying and transferring airtime for the migrant workers there have been declining. For the year ended December 31, 2023, Malaysia-Indonesia was the key global airtime corridor for Tranglo which contributed 46.1% of Tranglo’s global airtime revenue. As such, Tranglo’s global airtime business was adversely affected and its airtime revenue declined by 34% to $12.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 when compared to $18.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Tranglo’s global airtime revenue was $5.0 million, which represented a decline of 23.1% as compared to $6.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. In view of the over-concentration of Tranglo’s global airtime time business in Malaysia and Indonesia, Seamless needs to broaden its network and diversify its user base to other Asian countries like Pakistan, Middle East countries like UAE, Saudi Arabia, and African countries like Egypt, in order to expand its global airtime business in the future.

In February 2022, there was a short-term mishap which had a one-off adverse impact on Tranglo’s airtime business. Tranglo had been purchasing Indonesia’s XL Axiata telecom credit (XL Airtime) from PT Satria Abadi Terpadu (PT Satria). On February 22, 2022, there were multiple duplicated failed call transactions returned from the PT Satria system, which led to Tranglo paying refunds to the senders automatically. Tranglo later discovered that the spike of failed transactions was due to an invalid number for XL Airtime purchases and thus suspended the XL Airtime purchase immediately. After investigation, an erroneous refund of RM2 million ($453,961) was discovered. Tranglo has initiated a recovery process to get back the money, and by December 2022, it had recovered RM0.5 million ($113,000) and recorded the provision of RM1.56 million ($354,000) in the year ended December 31, 2022. In the year ended December 31, 2023, no further recovery was successfully made from the sender and a total of RM1.56 million ($354,000) was written off.

Seamless disposed its controlling stake of WalletKu on March 9, 2021 to a third party and regained the controlling stake of WalletKu in June, 2022. As a result, Seamless has consolidated approximately seven month’s results of WalletKu for the year ended December 31, 2022, and the revenue of Indonesian airtime was $10.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, Seamless’ Indonesian airtime revenue was $14.2 million. The increase was mainly due to that Seamless recorded full year results of WalletKu for the year 2023.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Seamless’ Indonesian airtime revenue was $6.2 million while it was $7.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

Seamless recorded a net loss of $15.7 million and $14.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively, mainly due to the interest expenses and a significant increase in expenses in relation to the merger exercise with INFINT SPAC. The Convertible Bond holders have committed that they will convert their bonds into shares upon the completion of the Business Combination. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Seamless recorded a net loss of $6.2 million as compared to a net loss of $6.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

Seamless recorded an EBITDA loss of $3.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, and an EBITDA loss of $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The EBITDA losses were mainly due to the expenses in relation to the merger exercise with INFINT SPAC which started in June of 2022. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Seamless recorded an EBITDA loss of $0.4 million which compared to an EBITDA loss of $1.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. Again, the EBITDA losses in the first six months of 2024 and 2023 were mainly due to a significant increase in expenses in relation to the merger exercise with INFINT SPAC.

Major Factors Affecting Seamless’ Results of Operations

Seamless operates in the cross-border money remittance and international airtime transfer markets in Southeast Asia, and its results of operations and financial condition are significantly affected by general factors driving this market. It has benefited from rapid technological change, increased low cost and real time cross-border money transfer needs, as well as increased availability, quality and usage of mobile devices. It has also benefited significantly from the increasing Internet penetration, particularly mobile Internet penetration, in Asia, and also the increasing adoption of electronic wallets or storage vehicles. On the other hand, its international airtime transfer business may be adversely affected by the increasing adoption and thus wider availability of free Wi-Fi in public places and buildings in many Southeast Asian countries as well as other emerging countries. Seamless’ results of operations and financial condition are affected by the general factors driving the currency transfer, digital financial services, e-commerce and other industries in Southeast Asia. On the other hand, as the global digital remittance market thrives and grows rapidly, more and more competitors have entered into the market and as a result, the market competition is getting more and more intense. This has direct impact on the pricing power of Seamless, and thus its profitability.

Seamless’ results of operations are also directly affected by certain factors specific to it, including the following:

Seamless’ ability to maintain and increase the size of its user base

Seamless’ revenue is largely driven by the number of users and the number of transactions on its remittance platforms, as well as the users on the airtime trading platforms. The larger the number of users on Seamless’ platforms and the larger the number of partners, including banks, e-Wallets and corporations that will join its network, the greater will be the number of transactions that drive its revenue. However, as the market competition is getting more intense, Seamless has to offer more price competitive and highly efficient services in order to maintain and increase its user base.

Also, the larger the number of merchants and telecommunication companies using the platforms of airtime supplied by Tranglo’s airtime business and WalletKu, the higher the growth in business and revenue of Seamless will be higher.

Seamless will strive to develop B2C markets in Southeast Asia and Middle East, so as to capture the retail remittance and airtime market. This development, if successfully launched, will generate significant clientele and synergy for Tranglo’s remittance and airtime businesses.

User engagement and monetization

Currently, Seamless’ global money transfer and airtime services are the foundation of its relationship with its users globally. It generates revenue on cross border money transfers and airtime transfer services. In particular, Seamless’ in-house cross-border payment processing B2B platform generates fees on money transfer orders it settles for banks and other money service operators around the world. On the other hand, TNG Asia operates in the B2C eWallet market in Hong Kong which attracts unbankable migrant workers to make use of TNG eWallet platform for remitting money back to their homelands. Seamless will continue to drive adoption of its retail end users and financial institutions in using Seamless’ platform for money transfer, mass payout and collection services and payment processing business, as well as introduce new B2C financial services and airtime distribution services, in Southeast Asia and Middle East. Seamless believes it can leverage its expertise and knowhow to develop retail markets in Southeast Asia and Middle East, offering payment, remittances, airtime and other fintech services.

A significant determining factor in whether Seamless’ users use its services is based on the handling fee and Forex spread it charges on every remittance transaction, and pricing pressure it faces from competitors. For example, Tranglo’s average transaction fees take rate as measured in RM declined from 0.45% for the year 2022 to 0.32% for the year 2023, representing a decline of 29%. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, the average take rate was 0.27% which compared to 0.35% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. As for the average currency conversion take rate, i.e., Forex gain take rate as measured in RM, it was 0.12% for the year of 2022, which declined to 0.11% for the year ended December 31, 2023. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, the average Forex gain rate was 0.09% which compared to 0.11% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. This declining trend is mainly to match the prices of competitors, especially for new joiners who often adopt aggressive pricing strategies when introducing new businesses or services. If Seamless fails to price its services appropriately relative to its competitors, consumers may not use its services, which could adversely affect its business and financial results.

Tranglo’s average payout agency fees take rate as measured in RM was 0.23% for the year ended December 31, 2022. As a result, Tranglo’s average gross profit margin take rates as measured in RM was 0.34% for the year ended December 31, 2022. Seamless strives to retain its profitability margin by seeking to lower its direct costs.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, the payout rate decreased to 0.15%. As a result, Tranglo’s average gross profit margin rate decreased to 0.28% for the year ended December 31, 2023. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, the payout rate decreased to 0.11%, which compared to 0.16% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. As a result, Tranglo’s average gross profit margin rate decreased to 0.25% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, from 0.3% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

As for airtime business, Seamless will strive to expand its global airtime transfer coverage and telco partner network. The global airtime transfer business mainly serves migrant workers worldwide. As free Wi-Fi becomes more and more available to many Southeast Asian countries, the needs for migrant workers from these countries to send airtime back to their homelands diminish over time. Also, as Malaysia-Indonesia is currently the key global airtime corridor for Tranglo which contributed 50.9% of Tranglo’s global airtime revenue for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Tranglo’s global airtime business could be adversely affected by the changes. Seamless needs to broaden its network and diversify its user base to other Asian countries like Pakistan, Middle East countries like UAE, Saudi Arabia, and African countries like Egypt, in order to expand its global airtime business in the future. Seamless will also seek to expand the network and coverage of WalletKu and offer a wider range of products and services for retail customers in Indonesia. Seamless believes the insights on its users generated by its existing services will enable it to develop new products and services for the existing markets, and also to explore and develop new markets for the services, and thereby generate more revenue for it.

Launch of new products and services and cross-selling to Seamless’ users

Seamless strives to stay on the cutting edge of the financial technology by developing and launching new products and services to offer to both new and existing users and intends to continue investing in product development to build new products and services and to bring them to market. While Seamless expects its total expenses to increase in the short term as it plans for growth, it expects its expenses as a percentage of its total revenue to decline over the long term when its business and thus income continues to grow as these investments drive its business growth.

Seamless’ existing users represent a sizable opportunity to cross-sell products and services with relatively low incremental marketing and advertising expenses. Seamless believes that there exists a significant synergy between its B2C eWallet and retail airtime business and its B2B cross border remittance business and global airtime transfer business. As such, it plans to continually invest in the product development of its existing platforms, and to also to explore and develop eWallet markets in various Southeast Asian and Middle East countries so as to expand its B2C business scope and create more synergy between its B2C and B2B businesses. To the extent that Seamless is able to create significant synergy between its operations, and to cross-sell products and services between different clienteles and countries, it expects its revenue and financial income to continue to grow and its margins to increase.

Seamless’ ability to operate in a cost-effective manner

Seamless’ ability to control costs and expenses relating to its operations affects its profitability. The global remittance market is evolving rapidly and new entrants to the market have driven market competition. This has a long term downward trend on the gross profit margin for the whole industry. In order to generate growing operating profits, players have to expand their market scope and scale, while on the other hand, control their operating costs. General and administrative expenses have historically represented the largest portion of Seamless’ total operating expenses. In particular, Seamless has invested significantly in hiring, training and retaining personnel and expects to continue to make significant investments in personnel as it grows its business and enters new geographies and offers new services. With the expansion of its business, Seamless expects its operating costs and expenses to continue to increase, including employee compensation and benefits, marketing and branding and other costs and expenses. The salary level in the fintech industry in and around Southeast Asia has generally increased in recent years, and Seamless believes it offers competitive wages and other benefits to recruit and retain quality professionals. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the General and administrative expenses decreased slightly to $24.0 million, as compared to $25.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. As for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, the General and administrative expenses decreased to $11.0 million, as compared to $12.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. Seamless believes that the marginal costs for the business expansion should decrease because the growth of Seamless’ revenue will outpace the increase in operating costs and expenses. Seamless expects that its total revenue will continue to grow, so that the overall fixed costs as a percentage of revenue will decrease in the long run. And as Seamless is to explore and develop the B2C markets in Southeast Asia and Middle East, Seamless’ operating model allows it to centralize a number of functions, including technology development, operating system infrastructure building as well as certain general and administrative services. This will allow Seamless to increase efficiencies across each of its businesses and further increase its overall operating leverage.

Seamless’ partner network

Seamless’ results of operations are affected by its ability to continue to maintain and build its collaborative network with partners. The Ripple entities are important strategic partners of Seamless, and Tranglo has been integrated with RippleNet since September 2021 and started offering its ODL remittance services. Following this integration, the remittance flows through RippleNet have increased substantially, growing to represent $721 million, or 20.3%, of the total remittance value of $3.55 billion, and 2.4 million, or 21.8%, of the total number of transactions processed during the year ended December 31, 2022. As of December 31, 2022, ten of Tranglo’s 97 active remittance customers use the Ripple XRP prefunding facility. By June 30, 2024, the number of active ODL partners decreased to six out of the 90 active remittance customers. This was due to a temporary suspension of ODL services in mid-March 2023 when Tranglo suspended its ODL services for nine out of 11 active ODL users as a result of market turmoil and illiquidity in crypto market. The market turmoil appeared after the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank, Silvergate Bank and Signature Bank around March 2023. As most of the crypto exchanges and market makers maintain their operating accounts with Silvergate and Signature Banks, the collapse of these banks led to illiquidity of the crypto market, and the inability of crypto exchanges to liquidate XRP for supporting ODL transactions. As such, both Ripple and Tranglo agreed to suspend most of the ODL services temporarily. Despite Ripple and Tranglo resuming most of the ODL services after two weeks of temporary suspension, many ODL partners relied more on the fiat prefunding means for their remittance flows via Tranglo’s platform, and thus were slow in resuming their ODL flows. Also, Ripple has tightened the usage of ODL services for remittance partners since then. As a result, Tranglo’s ODL flows represented only 9.9% of the total processing value of Tranglo for the month of December 2023, which compared to 26% of the total processing value in February 2023. For the year ended December 31, 2023, ODL flows represented 10.5% of the total remittance value of $4.54 billion, and 1.2 million, or 11.2% of the total number of transactions processed. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, ODL flows further declined to represent only 5.5% of Tranglo’s TPV of $2.7 billion, or 4% of the total 5.8 million transactions processed. However, despite the usage of ODL services not recovering, Tranglo still managed to grow its TPV to RM2.1 billion for the month of December 2023, which represented significant increases as compared to the TPV of RM1.35 billion for the month of February 2023, and the TPV of RM1.58 billion for the month of March 2023. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Tranglo also managed to grow its TPV to RM12.8 billion, which represented a significant growth of 33.3% as compared to RM9.6 billion TPV for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

Still, the availability of ODL services to Seamless’ potential customers is considered as an important competitive edge for Seamless to expand its remittance business in new markets in Middle East or Africa. This is especially so for recruiting those small financial institutions that do not have sufficient working capital for prefunding and thus could benefit from the provision of prefunding liquidity by Ripple through the use of ODL services.

Ripple Labs Singapore Pte. Ltd seconded the Ripple Executive Officer to Tranglo, with an aim to facilitate Tranglo’s further integration with Ripple network to help ensure that Tranglo’s ODL service functions efficiently and meets the demands of Tranglo’s customers, and for Tranglo to leverage the marketing network and business resources of the Ripple entities. Later, the secondment agreement was terminated with effect from January 1, 2024. Although Tranglo currently has some network coverage in the Middle East, Tranglo believes it can tap the more robust business network and connections that the Ripple entities have in the Middle East, South America and Europe to expand its market reach in these new markets. Expanding its business reach in these geographies over the next three years is a strategic goal of Tranglo.

Tranglo does not provide services to customers who are licensed to operate in the United States and never offers ODL services to individuals or end users. As part of the stringent onboarding process for a customer which opts to use Tranglo’s ODL service, Tranglo confirms that the customer is not a licensee in the United States. All onboarding information is compiled and verified by Tranglo’s compliance team and presented to its senior management for approval. The onboarding process is also reviewed regularly by Tranglo’s risk management team and board of directors. While customers onboarded for use of the ODL service may have end users who are U.S. persons, all end users of any nationality must fund their remittances with fiat currency under applicable licensing requirements and AML rules, insuring that ODL services are not accessed by any U.S. person.

Tranglo’s business has a large portfolio of blue-chip customers across both its payment and airtime transfer segments, including WISE, SingTel, Remitly, SBI Japan, Mastercard, GEA, WeChat Pay HK, Maxis, Etisalat and Ding. By continuing to develop Tranglo’s technological infrastructure, Seamless will be able to handle larger volumes of money transfer and settlement and open new business opportunities, both in money transfer and airtime businesses, which in turn will allow it to attract more customers. The ability of Seamless to maintain and develop new partners will have the direct impact on its business scope and scale.

WalletKu has joined the Indosat Cluster Partnership programs and became the Authorized Distributor of Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison in 2021. The programs have proven to be a high growth and profitable business for WalletKu. Seamless will strive to maintain its partnership relationship with Indosat with an aim to acquiring more operation rights under the Cluster Partnership programs.

As Seamless is to develop new B2C markets in Southeast Asia and Middle East, it could bring in new partners for Tranglo and WalletKu so as to create significant business synergy and cross selling between different business segments of Seamless.

Expansion into new markets and acquisitions

As part of Seamless’ strategy of expansion, it has in the past acquired, and may, from time to time, acquire businesses or interests in businesses, including non-controlling interests, form joint ventures or create strategic alliances. In the future, Seamless will strive to develop its B2C businesses in Southeast Asia and Middle East, focusing on various fintech and airtime trading services. It expects to replicate and further develop the existing B2C eWallet, payment, remittance, airtime trading business model in Southeast Asian and Middle East countries, in particular the Philippines, Indonesia, Cambodia, Vietnam, Abu Dhabi and Saudi Arabia. Seamless will continually evaluate potential strategic acquisitions of businesses or products with the aim of expanding its user and revenue base, widening its geographic coverage and increasing its product range. In addition, Seamless’ ability to leverage its existing distribution network to expand its product offering across its current markets and replicate its success in Southeast Asian and Middle East countries where it operates will affect its growth and results of operations. It expects that its growth prospects will continue to be significantly affected by its ability to expand its business in new and existing markets.

Seamless Selected Income Statement Items

Total Revenue

Seamless derives its net revenue primarily from remittance business and airtime businesses. For remittance business, the revenue sources are mainly from Tranglo, TNG Asia and GEA. For airtime businesses, the revenue is generated by the international airtime transfer business operated by Tranglo and the retail airtime business operated in Indonesia by WalletKu. Other income is of minor contribution and importance only.

The following table sets forth the breakdown of Seamless’ total net revenue, both in absolute amounts, for the periods indicated.

	For the six-month period ended June 30,				For the year ended December 31,
	2024		2023		2023		2022

Other services		89		84		161		286
Total net revenue		24,111		27,165		53,255		55,501

For the year ended December 31, 2023, Seamless’ revenue was $53.3 million, representing a decrease of 4% as compared to the year ended December 31, 2022 of $55.5 million. The remittance revenue remained unchanged at $26.7 million. While the remittance revenue of Tranglo slightly decreased, the decline was mitigated by an increase in TNG Asia’s remittance revenue. However, Seamless’ global airtime revenue decreased substantially by 34%, from $18.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to $12.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. As more and more free Wi-Fi is now made available to the people in many Southeast Asian countries, especially in Malaysia and Indonesia, the demand for Malaysia-Indonesia airtime transfers has been declining. As Malaysia-Indonesia is the key global airtime corridor for Tranglo which contributed 46.1% of Tranglo’s global airtime revenue, Tranglo’s global airtime business was adversely affected. As Seamless acquired the control of WalletKu in June 2022, it recorded only seven months’ results of WalletKu for the year ended December 31, 2022, and Seamless’ Indonesian airtime revenue was $10.1 million for the year, 2022. Seamless’ Indonesian airtime revenue was $14.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 as Seamless recorded full year’s results of WalletKu in 2023.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Seamless’ revenue was $24.1 million, representing a decrease of 11.4% as compared to $27.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. The remittance revenue declined by 5.9% mainly due to a decline in TNG Asia’s remittance revenue. Also, Seamless’ global airtime revenue decreased substantially by 23.1%, from $6.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 to $5.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024.

Remittance Revenue

Tranglo, TNG Asia and GEA are all involved in the remittance business. Tranglo is the leading remittance hub in Southeast Asia serving mostly banks and financial institutions whereas TNG Asia operates an eWallet which targets the retail remittance market – targeting mainly the overseas workers in Hong Kong who could not access to banking services easily. TNG Asia generates 80-95% of its revenue through processing the remittance flows of its targeted customers. TNG Asia has placed most of its remittance orders to GEA for processing and is the most important client of GEA which in turn, places orders to Tranglo for processing. As such, TNG Asia and GEA are the customers of Tranglo.

There are two main streams of remittance revenue for Seamless – the transaction fees, which are charged on a per transaction basis, and also the currency conversion fees, i.e., Forex Gain take rate.

Seamless’ remittance revenue remained relatively unchanged at $26.7 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. Seamless’ remittance revenue which was contributed by Tranglo declined by 3% from $20.0 million for the year of 2022 to $19.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, despite an increase in remittance volume by 28% in the year of 2023. The decline in Tranglo’s revenue was mitigated by the increase in TNG Asia’s remittance revenue by 15.6%, from $8.3 million for the year 2022 to $9.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Tranglo processed 11.0 million remittance transactions for the year ended December 31, 2023, which represents a slight decline of 2% as compared to 11.2 million remittance transactions processed by Tranglo for the year ended December 31, 2022. On the other hand, the total processing value increased by 28% from $3.55 billion to $4.54 billion for the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to the year 2022. This, coupled with a decline of 23% in the average take rates as measured in USD, resulted in a decline of 3% in Tranglo’s remittance revenue for the year 2023. As for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Tranglo processed over 5.8 million transactions with a total value of $2.7 billion, which represents a growth in volume by 7.4% as compared to 5.4 million transactions, and a growth in value by 22.7% as compared to the total processing value of $2.2 billion for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

On the other hand, the total processing value of TNG Asia increased significantly by 5% from $505 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, to $531 million remittance flows for the year ended December 31, 2023. There was also an increase in take rate from 1.36% in the year of 2022 to 1.5% in the year of 2023. As a result, TNG Asia’s remittance revenue managed to increase from $8.3 million for the year 2022 to $9.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. As for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, the total processing value of TNG Asia decreased by 25.4% to $197 million from $264 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. The average total take rate of TNG Asia was 1.5% which generated $3.7 million remittance revenue for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, which was similar to the average total take rate of 1.5% which generated $4.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

GEA’s remittance revenue decreased slightly from $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to $2.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, GEA’s remittance revenue was $1.0 million, representing a decline as compared to the $1.3 million remittance revenue for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

The following table is the breakdown of Seamless’ total remittance revenue. Because TNG Asia submitted almost all its remittance transactions to GEA, which in turn placed orders to Tranglo for processing, most of TNG Asia’s and GEA’s remittance revenue is also accounted for as remittance revenue of Tranglo. This overlapping in remittance revenue for TNG Asia, GEA and Tranglo, which was $4.3 million and $4.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively, is eliminated in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for Seamless. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, the elimination was $1.7 million as compared to $2.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

Global Airtime Transfer Revenue

Currently, Tranglo operates one of the biggest airtime transfer networks in the world, providing access to over 500 mobile operators across 150 countries. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Seamless’ top three airtime corridors were Malaysia-Indonesia (50.9% of total global airtime revenue), Malaysia-Bangladesh (10.4% of total global airtime revenue) and UAE-Indonesia (3.9% of total global airtime revenue), which collectively accounted for 65.2% of its total airtime transfers in that period. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, the top four sending countries for Tranglo’s global airtime business were Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, UAE and Ireland, whereas the top four receiving countries were Indonesia, Bangladesh, Philippines and Nepal. Management believes that the top four receiving countries have large underserved populations. On the other hand, Tranglo’s global airtime business relies heavily on the Malaysia – Indonesia corridor (50.9% of revenue) and is therefore vulnerable to changes in consumers’ behavior in these countries.

Seamless recorded global airtime revenue of $18.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the global airtime revenue decreased to $12.2 million which represented a decline of 34% as compared to the year 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Malaysia – Indonesia airtime corridor represented 46.1% of the total global airtime business. The decline in airtime business in the year 2022 and 2023 was mainly due to the COVID pandemic which affected Malaysia in early 2022. In 2022, the Malaysian government started to impose border closures in response to the COVID pandemic. As such, many migrant or overseas workers in Malaysia left the country in the midst of the border restriction. The shrinkage of overseas workers in Malaysia was further exacerbated by a government imposed freeze on the hiring of foreign workers. The border restriction was not eased until the second half of 2022, albeit slowly. As a result, Tranglo’s global airtime business declined significantly since early 2022. Moreover, as more and more free Wi-Fi is now made available to the people in many Southeast Asian countries, especially in Malaysia and Indonesia, the demand for Malaysia-Indonesia airtime transfers has been declining. This led to a continual decline in Tranglo’s global airtime business in the year 2023.

Moreover, on February 22, 2022, there were multiple duplicated failed call transactions returned from the PT Satria system, which led to Tranglo paying refunds to the senders automatically. Tranglo later discovered that the spike of failed transactions was due to an invalid number for XL Airtime purchases and thus suspended the XL Airtime purchase immediately. After investigation, an erroneous refund of RM2 million was discovered, and Tranglo has initiated a recovery process to get back the money, and by December 2022, it had recovered RM0.5 million ($113,000) and recorded the provision of RM1.56 million ($354,000) in the year ended December 31, 2022. In the year ended December 31, 2023, no further recovery was successfully made from the sender and a total of RM1.56 million ($354,000) was written off.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, the Malaysia – Indonesia airtime corridor represented 50.9% of the total global airtime revenue. Tranglo’s global airtime revenue declined by 23.1% to $5.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 when compared to $6.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

Indonesian Airtime Revenue

Seamless operates an airtime services business in Indonesia, directly targeting the retail consumer sector. In Indonesia, Seamless has an active airtime user base of more than 3,000 merchants which relies on Seamless’ platform for selling airtime products. Seamless is also operating under the Indosat Cluster Partnership scheme for selling of airtime products in two cluster areas in Indonesia.

Seamless disposed of a controlling stake of WalletKu on March 9, 2021 to a third party, and regained the controlling stake of WalletKu in June, 2022. As such, Seamless has consolidated approximately seven month’s results of WalletKu into its consolidated revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022. As a result, the revenue of Indonesian airtime business increased from $10.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to $14.2 million as of the year ended December 31, 2023, as only seven months’ results of WalletKu were consolidated in the year of 2022. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Seamless’ Indonesian airtime revenue decreased to $6.2 million, as compared to $7.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

Cost of Revenue

Global Money Transfer Business

Seamless’ cost of revenue for its money transfer business is the direct costs paid to the remittance processing agents, which are primarily the payout agents and banks. These payout agents help execute money transfer transactions and pay money in the recipient countries. For TNG Asia, most of the handling fees were paid to its remittance agents, i.e., GEA. For GEA, the majority of its handling fees were paid to Tranglo. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the direct costs for its remittance were $11.3 million. For the year ended December 31, 2023, Seamless’ direct costs for its remittance business declined to $9.8 million as compared to the year of 2022, despite an increase in the total processing value. This was largely due to a lower payout cost rate paid to the payout agents.

Handling fees paid to the payout agents are fixed charges per transaction, and the fees charged will depend on the location of the receivers and the pay-out channels. For the year ended December 31, 2022 the direct cost rate of Tranglo was 0.23%, and Tranglo paid $8.3 million for handling fees despite an increase in total processing value to $3.55 billion. For the year ended December 31, 2023, Tranglo’s average direct remittance cost declined to $7.2 million, despite an increase of total processing value to $4.54 billion. This represented an average payout cost rate of 0.16%, representing a decrease of 30% as compared to the year of 2022. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, the direct payout rate decreased to 0.11%, which represented a decrease of 31.3% as compared to 0.16% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. As a result, despite TPV increasing by 22.7% during the periods, Seamless’ handling fees paid to the payout agents decreased to $3.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 as compared to $3.7 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. Tranglo’s ability to control its direct costs is a key factor in its ability to offer more attractive pricing to maintain its competitiveness in the market.

For direct remittance cost, TNG Asia paid Tranglo, GEA, and third parties like Faspay, top-up agencies, and banks for processing remittance flows. TNG Asia also recorded the amortization costs as its direct remittance costs. For the year ended December 31, 2022 TNG Asia recorded only $6.7 million as its direct remittance costs, of which $1.98 million was amortization costs, while $2.0 million was paid to GEA. For the year end December 31, 2023, TNG Asia recorded $6.5 million as its direct remittance costs, of which $1.6 million was amortization costs, and $2.6 million was paid to GEA as its payout agency costs, representing an increase of 30% as compared to 2022. This increase in TNG Asia’s direct payout agencies costs was in line with the increase of 5% in the total processing value, and also that GEA had diverted its remittance flows to Fiat channel of Tranglo since March 2023. For the year 2022 and 2023, no order was placed by TNG Asia or GEA to Faspay or other payout agents. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, TNG Asia recorded $2.9 million as its direct remittance costs, of which $0.7 million was amortization costs, and $1.0 million was paid to GEA as its payout agency costs. This compared to TNG Asia’s direct remittance cost of $3.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, of which $0.8 million was amortization costs, and $1.1 million was paid to GEA as its payout agency costs. For the first six months of 2024, no order was placed by TNG Asia or GEA to Faspay or other payout agents.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, GEA paid $1.7 million to Tranglo as its direct costs. For the year ended December 2023, GEA paid $2.4 million to Tranglo as its payout agency cost. No payment was made to Faspay or other third parties in the years of 2022 and 2023. The increase in GEA’s direct costs was the result of an increase in remittance volume handled by GEA in the year of 2023, and also that GEA stopped using the ODL services of Tranglo since March 2023 and diverted its remittance flows to Fiat channel since then, which carries higher transaction fees. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, GEA paid $0.7 million as direct costs to Tranglo which served as the only payout agent for GEA during the period. This compared to $1.1 million direct costs for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, also all paid to Tranglo as its only payout agent. No other payments to other parties were made in either of the periods.

Because Tranglo, TNG Asia and GEA are all subsidiaries of Seamless conducting remittance business, in the consolidated financial statements of Seamless the direct costs paid to GEA and Tranglo have been eliminated. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, intercompany cost of goods sold of $3.7 million and $5.0 million, respectively, were eliminated. After adjustments on the intercompany cost of goods sold, the direct costs for Seamless for its remittance business were $13.3 million and $11.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, the intercompany elimination was $1.7 million, which was a decline as compared to $2.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. As a result, after adjustments on the intercompany cost of goods sold, the direct costs for Seamless for its remittance business was decreased to $5.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 from $5.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

Amortization of Software

Amortization of software is primarily related to Seamless’ computer software and systems. From a financial reporting perspective, because Tranglo, TNG Asia and GEA conduct their remittance business using their apps and IT platforms for customers to log in and process the remittance orders, the amortization of intangible assets is considered a direct cost of the revenue generated.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, Seamless’ direct costs for amortization of intangible assets were $1.99 million, which was soley contributed by TNG Asia. The direct cost for amortization of the intangible assets of Tranglo and WalletKu was not material to the total. For the year ended December 31, 2023, Seamless’ direct cost for amortization of intangible assets was $1.59 million which was also contributed solely by TNG Asia. Again, the direct cost for amortization of the intangible assets of Tranglo and WalletKu was not material to the total for the year 2023. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Seamless’ direct cost for amortization of intangible assets was $0.7 million, which compared to $0.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. All the amortization costs were contributed solely by TNG Asia in both periods, and the direct costs for amortization of the intangible assets of GEA, Tranglo and WalletKu were not material in both periods.

The following table is the breakdown analysis of Seamless’ cost of revenue for remittance business. Because TNG Asia submitted almost all of its remittance transactions to GEA, which in turn placed orders to Tranglo for processing, part of TNG Asia’s and GEA’s remittance direct costs are also accounted for as remittance cost of Tranglo. The overlapping remittance costs for TNG Asia, GEA and Tranglo, which were $3.7 million and $5.0 million for the years 2022 and 2023, respectively, are eliminated in the compilation of the consolidated accounts for Seamless. The overlapping remittance costs were $1.7 million and $2.2 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively.

The headquarters expenses remained at high level of $5.5 million for the year 2023, which was at relatively the same level of $6.0 million for the year 2022 due to substantial increase in the headquarters general expenses in relation to the merger exercise with INFINT SPAC.

However, the headquarters’ costs remained high due to the ongoing expenses in relation to the merger exercise with INFINT SPAC.

For TNG Asia, its general expenses decreased slightly from $3.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to $3.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 due to cost control measures.

To supplement Seamless’ consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, it uses EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure as described below, to understand and evaluate its core operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures, which may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies, are presented to enhance investors’ overall understanding of its financial performance and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

EBITDA is defined as net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Seamless believes that EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating its operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures eliminate the impact of items that Seamless does not consider indicative of the performance of its business. While Seamless believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating its business, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The table below presents a reconciliation of EBITDA to net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, for the periods indicated.

Malaysia

Seamless’ subsidiaries incorporated in Malaysia are subject to Malaysian profits tax at a rate of 24.0% on the estimated assessable profit for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023. Payment of dividends to the shareholders of Seamless’ subsidiaries in Malaysia are not subject to withholding tax in Malaysia. No Malaysian profit tax has been levied as Seamless did not have assessable profit that was earned in or derived from the Malaysian subsidiary during the periods presented.

Indonesia

Seamless’ subsidiaries incorporated in Indonesia are subject to Indonesian profits tax at a rate of 22.0% on the taxable profit for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023. Dividends paid by its subsidiaries in Indonesia will be subject to a withholding tax rate ranging from 0% (subject to certain requirements) to 20%. Dividends paid or payable to foreign taxpayers are subjected to a tax rate of 20% of cash payment (if in the form of cash dividends) or 20% of par value (if in the form of share dividends). Taxpayers who are residents of a country that have a written agreement for double tax avoidance with Indonesia will be charged at a lower rate if they give their original residence certificates issued by the department of taxation of the origin country. No Indonesian profit tax has been levied as Seamless did not have assessable profit that was earned in or derived from the Indonesian subsidiary during the periods presented.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Seamless has been a private company with limited accounting personnel and other resources with which to address its internal control and procedures over financial reporting. As a company with less than $1.07 billion in revenue for its last fiscal year, Seamless qualifies as an “emerging growth company” pursuant to the JOBS Act. An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting and other requirements that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies. These provisions include exemption from the auditor attestation requirement under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 in the assessment of the emerging growth company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Seamless prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In doing so, it has to make estimates and assumptions that affect its reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, as well as related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, Seamless’ financial condition or operating results and margins would be affected. Seamless bases its estimates on past experience and other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances, and it evaluates these estimates on an ongoing basis. The following is a discussion of the accounting policies we apply that are considered to involve a higher degree of judgment in their application.

Revenue Recognition

The Company complies with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

Contract assets represent the Company’s right to consideration for performance obligations that have been fulfilled but for which the customer has not been billed as of the balance sheet date.

Remittance services revenue

Fiat Currency Prefunded Remittance Service

XRP Prefunded Remittance Service

Unlike the Fiat Currency Prefunded Remittance Service, the customer obtains prefunding through Ripple Solution offered by Ripple Lab Inc. (see Note 8 in the Company’s consolidated financial statements) with the XRP Prefunded Remittance Service. Ripple supplies the customer with the XRP equivalent of the requested prefunding. The Company subsequently liquidates this XRP on Ripple’s behalf, and the fiat currency obtained as a result of the liquidation process is transferred to the customer’s beneficiary. Customers who prefund their remittance service with XRP must enter into an agreement with Ripple and undergo stringent credit checks in order to get XRP prefunding and use Ripple’s platform. The Company charges their customers an XRP Prefunded Remittance Service Fee when the money is transferred to the customer’s beneficiary.

Sales WalletKu Modern Channel

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized at the point in time when the Company satisfies its performance obligation, which is upon delivery of the goods to customer. The credit terms are typically 3-7 days.

Sales of airtime

Revenue from airtime sold is recognized when the relevant international airtime transfer or reload request is processed and executed.

Other services

Revenue from contracts with customers on other services is recognized as and when services are rendered.

Goodwill Impairment

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination. The Company performs goodwill impairment testing on annual basis and more frequently upon the occurrence of certain events as defined by ASC 350. Goodwill is impaired when the carrying value of the reporting units exceeds its fair value.

The Company estimates the fair value of the reporting unit using a discounted cash flow approach. Significant management judgment and estimation are involved in forecasting the amount and timing of expected future cash flows and the underlying assumptions used in the discounted cash flow approach to determine the fair value of the reporting unit. These assumptions include the anticipated percentage growth or contraction of revenues, expenses and capital purchases, and factors such the risk free interest rate, equity risk premium, effective tax rate and pretax required rate on debt to estimate the discount rate on the expected cash flows.

In accordance with ASC 350, the Company has performed a qualitative analysis to determine if any events or conditions have been identified that indicate there might be an impairment. In testing for goodwill impairment in accordance with ASC 350, the Company first does a qualitative analysis to determine if any events or conditions have been identified which indicate that impairment may exist. For 2023 and 2022, goodwill is associated with our Tranglo and WalletKu subsidiaries. Tranglo was profitable in 2023 and 2022, and is expected to continue to be so going forward; therefore, the second step in goodwill impairment, a quantitative test, was not considered necessary. Goodwill associated with WalletKu arose upon the acquisition of a controlling interest in that subsidiary’s parent in June 2022. Given the recent nature of the acquisition and the fact that no events or conditions have been identified since then to suggest that impairment may exist, the quantitative test was considered unnecessary for this portion of our goodwill.

Year Ended December 31, 2023 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2022, Six-month period ended June 31, 2024 Compared to Six-month period ended June 30, 2023

Revenue Analysis

For the year ended December 31, 2023, Seamless’ revenue decreased to $53.3 million from $55.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The decrease was mainly due to a significant drop in the global airtime revenue. The global airtime business decreased by 34% to $12.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, when compared to the year of 2022. The remittance revenue remained unchanged at $26.7 million in the years of 2022 and 2023. The decline in revenue was mitigated by an increase in the local retail airtime business, which increased from $10.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to $14.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. This was due to the reacquisition of WalletKu control in June 2022, and the inclusion of its revenue into Seamless’ consolidated revenue after that date. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Seamless’ revenue decreased by 11.4% to $24.1 million as compared to $27.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. The decrease was mainly due to a drastic decline of 23% in global airtime revenue. The remittance revenue decreased as well due to a decline in TNG Asia’s remittance business.

Tranglo’s remittance hub processed $3.55 billion in remittance orders in 2022, and generated revenue of $20.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2022, Tranglo processed a total of 11.2 million transactions and a total of $3.55 billion processing value. For the year ended December 31, 2023, Tranglo processed 11.0 million remittance transactions with a total value of $4.54 billion. However, as the overall take rate decreased significantly during the period, Tranglo generated the remittance revenues of $19.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, which represented a 3% decline as compared to $20.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Tranglo processed 5.8 million remittance transactions with a total value of $2.7 billion, which compares to 5.4 million transactions and a total value of $2.2 billion for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. However, as the overall take rate decreased by 21.7% during the period, Tranglo generated remittance revenues of $9.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, which was at relatively the same level as the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

Tranglo’s global money transfer network has been expanding. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, it has increased the number of global money transfer corridors it serves to more than 70 corridors. For the year ended December 31, 2023, Tranglo processed 11.0 million remittance transactions, which was roughly at the same level as compared to 11.2 million transactions for the year ended December 31, 2022. The number of unique users increased to 1,032,360 for the year ended December 31, 2023, representing a growth of 8.8% as compared to 949,023 for the year ended December 31, 2022. The number of average monthly unique sending accounts also increased from 267,201 in 2022 to 330,571 in 2023. The number of unique users increased to 820,000 as of June 30, 2024 from 705,000 as of June 30, 2023, and the number of global money transfer transactions increased from 5.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 to 5.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024. The number of average monthly unique sending accounts increased from 325,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 to 367,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024.

Tranglo’ Forex Gain revenue was $4.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Forex Gain of Tranglo increased to $4.8 million due to an increase in the total processing value to $3.54 billion. This is due to a slight decline in Forex spreads offered by Tranglo so as to aggressively compete in the market and capture more market share. Also, for the ODL services, Tranglo offers lower transaction fees and lower Forex spreads, which further adversely affect the Forex take rate of Tranglo for the year 2022. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Tranglo continued its aggressive marketing campaign in the form of lower Forex spreads, and thus the Forex spreads Gain revenue was $2.5 million, which is slightly higher than $2.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, despite a 22.7% increase in TPV during the periods.

Similarly, the transaction fee revenue of Tranglo decreased from $15.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to $14.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 despite an increase in total processing value. This is due to Tranglo proposing lower transaction fees for the market to capture more market share, and also that Tranglo needs to offer a discount on transaction fees for users using the ODL facilities. As a result, Tranglo’s remittance revenue declined slightly despite that the TPV increased by 28% during the period. However, the decline in remittance revenue contributed by Tranglo was partly mitigated by an increase in remittance revenue contributed by TNG Asia in the year of 2023. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Tranglo’s transaction fee revenue was $7.3 million, which was also at relatively the same level as that of $7.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, despite an increase of 22.7% in TPV during the periods.

Due to COVID and the Malaysian border being closed, Seamless’ global airtime business dropped by 34%, from $18.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to $12.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Seamless’ global airtime revenue continued to decline by 23.1% to $5.0 million as compared to $6.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. As more and more free Wi-Fi is now made available to the people in many Southeast Asian countries, especially in Malaysia and Indonesia, there was a change in consumers’ behavior. In particular, the demand for Malaysia-Indonesia airtime transfers has been declining which led to a continual decline in Tranglo’s global airtime business in the years 2023 and 2024. Seamless does not expect a turn around on its global airtime business in the near future.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, the airtime unique user accounts decreased to 426,000, representing a decline of 24.4% as compared to 564,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. The monthly average unique sending accounts also decreased to 145,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, representing a decline of 21.1% as compared to 184,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

Seamless’ Indonesian airtime revenue was $10.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 due to the reacquisition of control of WalletKu in June 2022 and thus the inclusion of its revenue into Seamless’ consolidated revenue after that date. Seamless’ Indonesian airtime revenue was $14.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. Seamless’ Indonesian airtime revenue was $6.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, which was a decrease of 11.4% as compared to $7.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, Seamless’ other income was $3.4 million, which included a fair value gain of $2.1 million on the pre-existing interest in WalletKu due to the acquisition of WalletKu’s control in June 2022. Tranglo also reported an other income gain of $1.2 million due to the revaluation gain of foreign currency bank balances and settlement of receivables and payables balances in the year of 2022. These increases were offset partially by the Forex spreads gain of TNG Asia turning into a loss of $0.12 million due to the aggressive marketing campaign in the form of negative Forex spreads offered by TNG Asia to capture more market share. For the year ended December 31, 2023, Seamless recorded a gain in “other income” of $840,000. Tranglo reported an other income gain of $0.96 million due to the revaluation gain of foreign currency bank balances which was offset by a Forex spread loss of $124,000 of TNG Asia as TNG Asia launched an aggressive marketing campaign in the form of negative Forex spread rate of -0.03% in order to capture market share. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Seamless recorded a gain of $538,000 as “Other income”, of which Tranglo contributed a Forex gain of $455,000. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, Seamless recorded a gain of $122,000 as “Other income”, of which Tranglo contributed a Forex gain of $586,000 whereas TNG Asia contributed a Forex loss of $116,000 as TNG Asia launched a negative Forex spreads rate of -0.07%.

Cost of Revenue

Seamless cost of revenue was $39.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The cost of revenue decreased to $35.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The costs of revenue for airtime business and remittance business both decreased during the year which were in line with the decline in global airtime revenue and remittance revenue. Due to Seamless’ efforts at continually lowering the direct costs for remittance, the direct costs for remittance revenue was $9.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, which represented a decrease of 13.3% as compared to $11.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, despite an increase of remittance flows and TPV by 28% during the two periods. This was the result of stringent control on Seamless’ payout costs. On the other hand, the direct costs for global airtime revenue decreased substantially from $17.0 million to $10.7 million, which was in line with the 34% decline in global airtime revenue. As Seamless only recorded seven months’ results of WalletKu for the year of 2022 whereas it recorded all full year’s results of WalletKu for 2023, the direct costs for Indonesian airtime revenue increased substantially from $9.4 million to $13.5 million during the periods. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Seamless cost of revenue was $15.9 million which was a decrease of 12.2% as compared to that of $18.1 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. Due to Seamless’ efforts at continually lowering the direct costs for remittance, the direct costs for remittance revenue was $4.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, which represented a mild decrease of 4% as compared to $5.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, despite a substantial increase of TPV by 22.7% during the two periods. Also, the direct costs for global airtime revenue decreased substantially by 24.6% from $5.7 million to $4.3 million, which was in line with the 23.1% decline in global airtime revenue. The direct costs for Indonesian airtime revenue decreased by 7.8% from $6.4 million to $5.9 million during the periods.

Amortization of intangible assets, which is classified as a direct cost of Seamless was $2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, primarily due to the amortization expense of TNG Asia. The amortization expense decreased to $1.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was also related only to TNG Asia. For the years of 2022 and 2023, there was no amortization expense reported for GEA. The amortization expense of Seamless was $0.7 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $0.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. Again, the amortization expenses were related only to the amortization expense of TNG Asia.

Operating Expenses

Seamless’ operating expenses were $25.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, which decreased to $24.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The high operating expenses were mainly due to increases in employment benefit expenses and legal and professional fees, and mildly offset by decreases in rental expenses and property, plant and equipment depreciation and computer expenses. Employment benefit expenses increased from $10.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to $11.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily driven by increased headcount of Tranglo which was in line with its business expansion strategy. Seamless’ operating expenses decreased slightly from $12.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, to $11.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024. The staff costs remained relatively stable as Tranglo had completed its manpower expansion plan, whereas the legal and professional costs declined slightly during the periods.

The legal and professional fees were $5.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 due to the costs incurred in connection with the proposed merger with INFINT, including payment of a $3 million fee in connection with the extension of the deadline for INFINT to consummate its initial business combination. For the same reason, Seamless’ legal and professional costs remained at a high level of $4.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. Seamless’ legal and professional costs decreased to $1.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, from $2.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. This was mainly due to lower extension fees paid for the extension of INFINT SPAC.

Rental expenses remained relatively the same level of $1.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023. PPE depreciation and computer expenses also remained at relatively the same level of $1.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023. Rental expenses were $0.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 which compared to $0.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

Other expenses

Other expenses were mainly generated from the realized exchange loss of $700,000 in 2022, whereas other expenses were immaterial for disclosure for the year ended December 31, 2023. Other expenses were also immaterial for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

Finance costs, net

Finance costs in 2022 were mainly represented by convertible bond interest of $3.4 million, amortization for the debt discount on convertible bond of $3.4 million and interest paid to Ripple of $0.2 million.

Finance costs in 2023 were mainly represented by convertible bond interest of $1.8 million, interest on loan converted from convertible bond of $1.8 million, amortization for the debt discount on convertible bond of $0.8 million and interest to Ripple of $2.6 million for ODL prefunding purposes.

Finance costs for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 were mainly represented by convertible bond interest of $1 million and interest on loan converted from convertible bond of $0.9 million.

Finance costs for the six months’ period ended June 30, 2023 were mainly represented by convertible bond interest. of $0.9 million, amortization for the debt discount on convertible bond of $0.6 million and interest paid to Ripple of $0.4 million for ODL prefunding purposes.

Income tax expenses

Income tax expense was mainly generated by Tranglo. The effective tax rate of Tranglo for the year of 2023 and 2022 was consistent with the statutory tax rate. The effective tax rate of Tranglo for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was consistent with the statutory tax rate.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, Seamless had a combined EBIT loss of $7.4 million and EBITDA loss of $3.2 million. During the year, Tranglo recorded an EBIT profit of $3.15 million. During the same period, the combined EBIT loss of TNG Asia and GEA was $4.8 million, principally due to the COVID pandemic and the imposition by the Hong Kong government of restrictions on the inflow of overseas workers, which shrunk the customer pool of TNG Asia. WalletKu recorded an EBIT gain of $1.6 million, principally due to a fair value gain as Seamless regained control of WalletKu in June 2022. The contribution to Seamless’ EBIT loss from its headquarters and other adjustments was $7.3 million, mainly due to the material legal and professional fees incurred on de SPAC exercise.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, Seamless recorded a total cost of $4.2 million for depreciation and amortization. After adjusting for the depreciation and amortization costs, Seamless recorded an EBITDA loss of $3.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, Seamless had an EBIT loss of $5.9 million and EBITDA loss of $2.1 million. During the year, Tranglo recorded an EBIT of $3.5 million, representing an improvement as compared to the year ended December 31, 2022.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, the combined EBIT loss of TNG Asia and GEA decreased from $4.8 million to $1.8 million. TNG Asia adopted an aggressive marketing campaign by offering lower transaction fees and Forex spreads which successfully captured its market share. WalletKu’s EBIT was a loss of $0.8 million, which compared to a gain of $1.6 million in the year 2022 due to a fair value gain on acquisition of controlling stake in June 2022.

The contribution to Seamless’ EBIT loss from its headquarters and other adjustments decreased from $7.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to $6.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The loss was mainly due to expenses in relation to the legal and professional costs in preparation for the merger with INFINT.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, Seamless recorded a total cost of $3.8 million for depreciation and amortization. After adjusting for the depreciation and amortization costs, Seamless recorded an EBITDA loss of $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, Seamless had an EBIT loss of $3.2 million and an EBITDA loss of $1.3 million. This compared to the EBIT loss of $2.3 million and the EBITDA loss of $0.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024. The EBIT and EBITDA losses in the first six months of 2023 and 2024 were mainly due to high Seamless headquarters’ costs, which were related to the substantial increase in legal and professional expenses in connection with the merger exercise with INFINT SPAC.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, Tranglo recorded an EBIT profit of $2.0 million, which represented an increase of 25% compared to $1.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. This was due to a substantial improvement in Tranglo’s gross profit margin in its remittance business as Tranglo succeeded in containing its direct remittance payout costs. Despite that there was a 23.1% decline in Tranglo’s global airtime revenue, Tranglo managed to generate healthy growth in its EBIT profit. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, the EBIT loss of TNG Asia and GEA combined remained unchanged as $1.2 million, as compared to the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. WalletKu recorded an EBIT loss of $0.25 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 which compared to an EBIT loss of $0.19 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

Off-Balance Sheet Commitments and Arrangements

Seamless was not a party to any financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties during 2022 and 2023, and the six months period ended 30 June 2024. It has not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to its shares and classified as shareholder’s equity or that are not reflected in its consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, it does not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. Seamless does not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to it or engages in leasing, hedging or product development services with it.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

Foreign Exchange Risk

Assets and liabilities of non-U.S. Dollar functional currency entities are translated into U.S. Dollars using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Items in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss are translated into U.S. Dollars using the average exchange rate during the period. Equity accounts were translated at their historical exchange rates. The resulting translation adjustments are accumulated as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income on the consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity.

Interest Rate Risk

Seamless’ exposure to interest rate risk primarily relates to the interest income generated by excess cash, which is mostly held in interest-bearing bank deposits. It has not used any derivative financial instruments to manage its interest risk exposure. Interest-earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. Seamless has not been exposed, nor does it anticipate being exposed, to material risks due to changes in interest rates. However, its future interest income may be lower than expected due to changes in market interest rates.

Credit Risk

For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, and the six months period ended 30 June, 2024, substantially all of Seamless’ cash and cash equivalents were placed with financial institutions in Hong Kong, Malaysia and Indonesia. Seamless’ management chooses these institutions because of their reputations and track records for stability, and their known large cash reserves, and its management periodically reviews these institutions’ reputations, track records, and reported reserves. Seamless’ management expects that any additional institutions that its use for its cash and bank deposits will be chosen with similar criteria for soundness. It did not experience any losses on its deposits of cash and cash equivalents during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, and the six months period ended 30 June, 2024. Seamless did not experience any loss during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, and the six months period ended 30 June, 2024 with respect to receivables. These funds are not insured, however, as its business continues to grow and it expands into additional geographies and business lines, it may face greater credit risk.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which expands disclosures about a public entity’s reportable segments and requires more enhanced information about a reportable segment’s expenses, interim segment profit or loss, and how a public entity’s chief operating decision maker uses reported segment profit or loss information in assessing segment performance and allocating resources. The update will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is assessing the effect of this update on the consolidated financial statement disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which expands disclosures in an entity’s income tax rate reconciliation table and regarding cash taxes paid both in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions. The update will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is assessing the effect of this update on the consolidated financial statement disclosures.

In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards, which adds an illustrative example aimed at clarifying the scope application of a profit interest award in accordance with Topic 718. The update will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and interim periods within those annual periods. Upon adoption, the new standard is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In March 2022, the SEC released SAB 121, which provides guidance for an entity to consider when it has obligations to safeguard customers’ crypto assets, whether directly or through an agent or another third party acting on its behalf. The interpretive guidance requires a reporting entity to record a liability to reflect its obligation to safeguard the crypto assets held for its platform users with a corresponding safeguarding asset. The crypto asset safeguarding liability and the corresponding safeguarding asset will be measured at the fair value of the crypto assets held for the platform users with the measurement of the safeguarding asset taking into account any potential loss events. SAB 121 also requires disclosures related to the entity’s safeguarding obligations for crypto assets held for its platform users. SAB 121 was effective in the first interim or annual financial statements ending after June 15, 2022 with retrospective application as of the beginning of the fiscal year. We adopted this guidance for the year ended December 31, 2022 with retrospective application as of January 1, 2021. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, we recorded $2.0 million and $5.8 million, respectively, for both the crypto asset safeguarding liability and corresponding safeguarding asset, which were classified as accounts payable, accruals and other payables and prepayments, receivables and other assets, respectively, on our consolidated balance sheets.

In March 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2022-02, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures” (“ASU 2022-02”). The amendments in this ASU eliminate the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors in Subtopic 310-40, while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. The amendments are effective for the Company beginning after December 15, 2022. As of the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company does not consider the changes prescribed in ASU 2022-02 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, “‘Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 2021-08”). This ASU requires entities to apply Topic 606 to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in a business combination. The amendments improve comparability after the business combination by providing consistent recognition and measurement guidance for revenue contracts with customers acquired in a business combination and revenue contracts with customers not acquired in a business combination. The amendments are effective for the Company beginning after December 15, 2022, and are applied prospectively to business combinations that occur after the effective date. As of the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company does not consider these amendments to have a material impact to the financial statements.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies an issuer’s accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models that require separate accounting for embedded conversion features. ASU 2020-06 also simplifies the settlement assessment that entities are required to perform to determine whether a contract qualifies for equity classification. Further, ASU 2020-06 enhances information transparency by making targeted improvements to the disclosures for convertible instruments and earnings-per-share (EPS) guidance, i.e., aligning the diluted EPS calculation for convertible instruments by requiring that an entity use the if-converted method and that the effect of potential share settlement be included in the diluted EPS calculation when an instrument may be settled in cash or shares, adding information about events or conditions that occur during the reporting period that cause conversion contingencies to be met or conversion terms to be significantly changed. The Company meets the classification as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 and is therefore eligible to take advantage of certain reduced reporting requirements otherwise applicable to other public companies. For private companies, it’s effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company has chosen not to early adopt the new standard before the effective date.
