THIS SERIES B PREFERENCE SHARE AND WARRANT PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of February 19, 2019 by and among Cloudminds Inc., an exempted company incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Company”), and the investors listed on Schedule A hereto, each of which is herein referred to as an “Investor.”
THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE AS FOLLOWS:
1. Purchase and Sale of Shares and Warrants.
1.1 Sale and Issuance of Series B Preference Shares and Warrants.
(a) The Company shall adopt on or before the Initial Closing (as defined below) the Fourth Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Restated Articles”)
(b) On or prior to the Initial Closing, the Company shall have authorized (i) the sale and issuance to the Investors of the Series B Preference Shares (as defined below) and the Warrants (as defined below), (ii) the issuance of Series B Preference Shares upon exercise of the Warrants and (iii) the issuance of Ordinary Shares (as defined below) upon conversion of the Series B Preference Shares sold hereunder or issuable pursuant to the Warrants (collectively, the “Conversion Shares”). The Series B Preference Shares shall have the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions set forth in the Restated Articles.
(c) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Investor agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase at the relevant Closing and the Company agrees to sell and issue to each Investor at the relevant Closing, (i) such number of the Company’s Series B Preference Shares (the “Series B Preference Shares”) set forth opposite such Investor’s name on Schedule A hereto for the aggregate purchase price set forth thereon (the “Purchase Price”), (ii) in the case of SVF Cloud (Singapore) Pte. Ltd. (“Softbank”), one or more warrants in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B-1 (the “SVF Warrants”) exercisable for such number of the Series B Preference Shares (the “SVF Warrant Shares”) set forth opposite Softbank’s name on Schedule A hereto for the aggregate purchase price set forth thereon, and (iii) in the case of certain Investors, one or more warrants (the “PRC Investor Warrants”, together with SVF Warrants, the “Warrants”) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B-2 exercisable for such number of Series B Preference Shares (the “PRC Investor Warrant Shares”, together with SVF Warrant Shares, the “Warrant Shares”) set forth opposite such Investor’s name on Schedule A hereto for the aggregate purchase price set forth thereon. The Company’s agreement with each Investor is a separate agreement, and the sale and issuance of the Series B Preference Shares and Warrants to each Investor is a separate sale and issuance.
(d) Upon the relevant Closing, the Company shall issue (i) such number of Series B Preference Shares set forth opposite such Investor’s name on Schedule A hereto and (ii) to Softbank, one or more Warrants, credited against prior payment in immediate available US dollars funds.
1.2 Closings.
(a) Initial Closing. The initial purchase and sale of the Series B Preference Shares and Warrants set forth on Schedule A shall take place remotely via the exchange of documents and signatures as soon as practicable, provided that all closing conditions specified in Section 4 and Section 5 hereof have been waived or satisfied, or at such other time and place as the Company and the Investors acquiring in the aggregate a majority of the Series B Preference Shares and Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of Warrants sold pursuant hereto mutually agree upon orally or in writing (which time and place are designated as the “Initial Closing”).
(b) Subsequent Closings. The Company may sell up to an aggregate total of US$500,000,000 of Series B Preference Shares (including the purchase price of the Warrants, “Authorized Allotment”). Subject to the reservation of Series B Preference Shares and Warrants pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 1.2(b), the Company may sell any portion of the Authorized Allotment not sold at the Initial Closing to such purchasers as it shall select, at a price per share not less than the price per share paid at the Initial Closing, provided that any such sale shall be consummated not later than the earlier of (i) six (6) months following the Initial Closing or (ii) the Company’s non-confidential filing of a registration statement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), reflecting an initial public offering in the United States that would constitute a Qualified Public Offering (as such term is defined in the Restated Articles) (such date the “Offering End Date”). Any such purchaser shall execute and deliver a counterpart signature page to, and thereby, without further action by any Investor, become a party to and be deemed an Investor under, this Agreement, the Investors’ Rights Agreement (as defined below), the Right of First Refusal and Co-Sale Agreement (as defined below) and the Voting Agreement (as defined below), and all schedules and exhibits hereto and thereto shall automatically be updated to reflect such purchaser as a party hereto and thereto, and the shares sold to such purchasers shall not be subject to the right of first offer set forth in Section 2.4 of the Investors’ Rights Agreement. The subsequent purchases and sales of the Series B Preference Shares and Warrants shall take place remotely via the exchange of documents and signatures, at such time or at such other place as the Company and the Investors acquiring Series B Preference Shares and Warrants in each such subsequent purchase and sale mutually agree upon orally or in writing (which each such time and place are, together with the Initial Closing, designated as a “Closing”).
(c) Delivery by the Parties. At each Closing, the Company shall deliver (i) to each Investor the updated register of members of the Company, certified by the registered office of the Company, reflecting the issuance to each Investor of the Series B Preference Shares being purchased by such Investor at such Closing as listed on Schedule A, (ii) to Softbank a SVF Warrant exercisable for such number of SVF Warrant Shares set forth opposite Softbank’s name on Schedule A hereto, and (iii) to each other Investor acquiring a Warrant, a PRC Investor Warrant exercisable for such number of PRC Investor Warrant Shares set forth opposite such Investor’s name on Schedule A hereto, in each case against payment of the purchase price therefor by check, wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Company, cancellation of indebtedness, or any combination thereof. In the event that payment by an Investor is made, in whole or in part, by cancellation or conversion of indebtedness, then such Investor shall surrender to the Company for cancellation at such Closing any evidence of such indebtedness or shall execute an instrument of cancellation in form and substance acceptable to the Company.
2. Representations and Warranties of the Company. For purposes of this Section 2, the “Company” shall mean the Company and any of its subsidiaries.

The foregoing includes, without limitation, actions, suits, proceedings or investigations pending or threatened (or any basis therefor known to the Company) involving the prior employment of any of the Company’s employees, their use in connection with the Company’s business of any information or techniques allegedly proprietary to any of their former employers, or their obligations under any agreements with prior employers.

2.11 Patents and Trademarks.
(a) The Company owns or has a valid right to use all patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, trade secrets, information, proprietary rights and processes necessary for its business as now conducted and, to the Company’s knowledge, without any conflict with or infringement of the rights of others.

The Company has not received any written communications alleging that the Company has violated or, by conducting its business as proposed, would violate any of the patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights or trade secrets or other proprietary rights of any other person or entity, nor, to the Company’s knowledge, is there any reasonable basis therefor. The Company is not aware that any of its officers or employees or consultants is obligated under any contract (including licenses, covenants or commitments of any nature) or other agreement, or subject to any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative agency, that would interfere with the use of his, her or its best efforts to promote the interests of the Company or that would conflict with the Company’s business as proposed to be conducted or that would prevent such officers or employees or consultants from assigning to the Company inventions conceived or reduced to practice in connection with services rendered to the Company. Neither the execution nor delivery of the Transaction Agreements, nor the carrying on of the Company’s business by the employees of the Company, nor the conduct of the Company’s business as proposed, will, to the Company’s knowledge, conflict with or result in a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any contract, covenant or instrument under which any of such employees is now obligated. The Company does not believe it is or will be necessary to utilize any inventions of any of its employees (or people it currently intends to hire) made prior to or outside the scope of their employment by the Company. All use and distribution of Company Software and Company Products is in full compliance with all Open Source Licenses (each as defined below) applicable thereto, including all copyright notice and attribution requirements. Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates has incorporated, embedded, bundled, combined or linked any software or other technology subject to any Copyleft License (as defined below) (“Copyleft Materials”), into any Company Software or Company Products or used any Copyleft Materials, in each case, in a manner that requires Company Software, Company Products, any portion of any of the foregoing, or any other company intellectual property, to be subject to Copyleft Licenses or requires or would require the Company or any of its subsidiary to grant any licenses to Company Intellectual Property.
(b) As used herein, “Company Software” means (y) software (other than “off the shelf,” or standard generally commercially available products, licensed to the Company or its subsidiary) owned by the Company or its subsidiaries and (z) proprietary software developed by or for the Company or its subsidiaries, including any such proprietary software that is incorporated or embedded in, or bundled, combined or linked with any products or services of the Company or its subsidiary (“Company Products”), or otherwise used by the Company or its subsidiary or incorporated or embedded in, or bundled, combined or linked with, any Company Product, including in development or testing of any such software or Company Products.
(c) As used herein, “Open Source License” means any license meeting the Open Source Definition (as promulgated by the Open Source Initiative) or the Free Software Definition (as promulgated by the Free Software Foundation), or any substantially similar license, including any license approved by the Open Source Initiative or any Creative Commons License. For the avoidance of doubt, Open Source Licenses include Copyleft Licenses.
(d) As used herein, “Open Source Software” means software subject to any Open Source License.
(e) As used herein, “Copyleft License” means any license that requires, as a condition of use, modification or distribution of software or other technology subject to such license, that such software or other technology or other software, or other technology incorporated into, derived from, used or distributed with such software or other technology, (A) in the case of software, be made available or distributed in a form other than binary (e.g., source code form), (B) be licensed for the purpose of allowing the making of derivative works, (C) be licensed under terms that allow the Company Software or Company Products or portions thereof or interfaces therefor to be reverse engineered, reverse assembled or disassembled or (D) be redistributable at no license fee. Copyleft Licenses include the GNU General Public License, the GNU Lesser General Public License, the Affero General Public License, the Mozilla Public License, the Common Development and Distribution License, the Eclipse Public License and all Creative Commons “sharealike” licenses.
2.12 Compliance with Other Instruments. The Company is not in violation or default of any provision of its Restated Articles or its memorandum and articles of association currently in effect, or in any material respect of any instrument, judgment, order, writ, decree or contract to which it is a party or by which it is bound, or, to its knowledge, of any provision of any federal or state statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Agreements, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not result in any such violation or be in conflict with or constitute, with or without the passage of time and giving of notice, either a default under any such provision, instrument, judgment, order, writ, decree or contract or an event that results in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any material assets of the Company or the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any material permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to the Company, its business or operations or any of its assets or properties.
2.13 Agreements; Action.

TO

This Amendment No. 1 to Series B Preference Share and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “Amendment”), dated as of June 28, 2019, is by and among Cloudminds Inc., an exempted company incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Company”), and the investors listed on Schedule A hereto (the “Investors”).
R E C I T A L S
WHEREAS, the Company and certain of the Investors have entered into that certain Series B Preference Share and Warrant Purchase Agreement dated as of February 19, 2019 (the “Agreement”);
WHEREAS, the Company and the Investors wish to amend the Agreement as provided herein;
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Investors hereby agree to amend the Agreement as follows:
A M E N D M E N T
1. Definitions; References; Interpretation. Except as otherwise provided herein, capitalized terms used in this Amendment shall have the definitions set forth in the Agreement. Each reference to “this Agreement,” “hereof,” “hereunder,” “herein” and “hereby” with respect to the Agreement and each other similar reference contained in the Agreement shall refer to the Agreement, as amended hereby.
2. Section 1. Section 1 of the Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:
1. Purchase and Sale of Shares and Warrants.
1.1 Sale and Issuance of Series B Preference Shares and Warrants.
(a) The Company shall adopt on or before the Initial Closing (as defined below) the Fourth Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Restated Articles”)
(b) On or prior to the Initial Closing, the Company shall have authorized (i) the sale and issuance to the Investors of the Series B Preference Shares (as defined below) and the Warrants (as defined below), (ii) the issuance of Series B Preference Shares upon exercise of the Warrants and (iii) the issuance of Ordinary Shares (as defined below) upon conversion of the Series B Preference Shares sold hereunder or issuable pursuant to the Warrants (collectively, the “Conversion Shares”). The Series B Preference Shares shall have the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions set forth in the Restated Articles.
(c) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Investor agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase at the relevant Closing and the Company agrees to sell and issue to each Investor at the relevant Closing, (i) such number of the Company’s Series B Preference Shares (the “Series B Preference Shares”) set forth opposite such Investor’s name on Schedule A hereto for the aggregate purchase price set forth thereon (the “Purchase Price”), (ii) in the case of SVF Cloud (Singapore) Pte. Ltd. (“Softbank”), one or more warrants in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B-1 (the “SVF Warrants”) exercisable for such number of the Series B Preference Shares (the “SVF Warrant Shares”) set forth opposite Softbank’s name on Schedule A hereto for the aggregate purchase price set forth thereon, and (iii) in the case of certain Investors, one or more warrants (the “PRC Investor Warrants”, together with SVF Warrants, the “Warrants”) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B-2 exercisable for such number of Series B Preference Shares (the “PRC Investor Warrant Shares”, together with SVF Warrant Shares, the “Warrant Shares”) set forth opposite such Investor’s name on Schedule A hereto for the aggregate purchase price set forth thereon. The Company’s agreement with each Investor is a separate agreement, and the sale and issuance of the Series B Preference Shares and Warrants to each Investor is a separate sale and issuance.
(d) Upon the relevant Closing, the Company shall issue (i) such number of Series B Preference Shares set forth opposite such Investor’s name on Schedule A hereto and (ii) to Softbank, one or more Warrants, credited against prior payment in immediate available US dollars funds.
1.2 Closings.
(a) Initial Closing. The initial purchase and sale of the Series B Preference Shares and Warrants set forth on Schedule A shall take place remotely via the exchange of documents and signatures as soon as practicable, provided that all closing conditions specified in Section 4 and Section 5 hereof have been waived or satisfied, or at such other time and place as the Company and the Investors acquiring in the aggregate a majority of the Series B Preference Shares and Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of Warrants sold pursuant hereto mutually agree upon orally or in writing (which time and place are designated as the “Initial Closing”).
(b) Subsequent Closings. The Company may sell hereunder Series B Preference Shares and Warrants having an aggregate purchase price of up to US$186,905,000 (the “Authorized Allotment”). Subject to the Company’s reservation of a sufficient number of Series B Preference Shares to be issued upon the full exercise of all Warrants sold hereunder, the Company may sell any portion of the Authorized Allotment not sold at the Initial Closing to such purchasers as it shall select, at a price per share not less than the price per share paid at the Initial Closing, provided that any such sale shall be consummated not later than the earlier of (i) six (6) months following the Initial Closing or (ii) the Company’s non-confidential filing of a registration statement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), reflecting an initial public offering in the United States that would constitute a Qualified Public Offering (as such term is defined in the Restated Articles) (such date the “Offering End Date”). Any such purchaser shall execute and deliver a counterpart signature page to, and thereby, without further action by any Investor, become a party to and be deemed an Investor under, this Agreement, the Investors’ Rights Agreement (as defined below), the Right of First Refusal and Co-Sale Agreement (as defined below) and the Voting Agreement (as defined below), and all schedules and exhibits hereto and thereto shall automatically be updated to reflect such purchaser as a party hereto and thereto, and the shares sold to such purchasers shall not be subject to the right of first offer set forth in Section 2.4 of the Investors’ Rights Agreement. The subsequent purchases and sales of the Series B Preference Shares and Warrants shall take place remotely via the exchange of documents and signatures, at such time or at such other place as the Company and the Investors acquiring Series B Preference Shares and Warrants in each such subsequent purchase and sale mutually agree upon orally or in writing (which each such time and place are, together with the Initial Closing, designated as a “Closing”).
(c) Delivery by the Parties. At each Closing, the Company shall deliver (i) to each Investor the updated register of members of the Company, certified by the registered office of the Company, reflecting the issuance to each Investor of the Series B Preference Shares being purchased by such Investor at such Closing as listed on Schedule A, (ii) to Softbank a SVF Warrant exercisable for such number of SVF Warrant Shares set forth opposite Softbank’s name on Schedule A hereto, and (iii) to each Investor acquiring a PRC Investor Warrant, a PRC Investor Warrant exercisable for such number of PRC Investor Warrant Shares set forth opposite such Investor’s name on Schedule A hereto, in each case against payment of the purchase price therefor by check, wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Company, cancellation of indebtedness, or any combination thereof. In the event that payment by an Investor is made, in whole or in part, by cancellation or conversion of indebtedness, then such Investor shall surrender to the Company for cancellation at such Closing any evidence of such indebtedness or shall execute an instrument of cancellation in form and substance acceptable to the Company.
3. Section 2.3 Capitalization.

4. Section 4.14 Board of Directors. Section 4.14 of the Agreement is hereby amended by replacing “Jiangchao Chu” with “Mengqiao Yang”.
5. Schedule A. Schedule A to the Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as provided on Schedule A to this Amendment.
