Domestic Issuer Status
Effective January 1, 2023, Renren Inc. (the “Company”) will begin to file periodic reports and registration statements on U.S. domestic issuer forms with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which are more detailed and extensive in certain respects, and which must be filed more promptly, than the forms available to a “foreign private issuer” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In addition, the Company is required to comply with U.S. proxy requirements. The Company is also no longer eligible to rely upon exemptions from corporate governance requirements that are available to foreign private issuers or to benefit from other accommodations for foreign private issuers under the rules of the SEC or the New York Stock Exchange. The Company’s next Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2022 will be filed as a domestic issuer, on Form 10-K.
Disclosure Channels to Disseminate Information
The Company announces material information to the public about the Company, its potential products and other matters through a variety of means, including filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, press releases, public conference calls, and the Company’s investor relations website (https://ir.renren-inc.com/), in order to achieve broad, non-exclusionary distribution of information to the public. The Company encourages investors and others to review the information it makes public in these locations, as such information could be deemed to be material information. Please note that this list may be updated from time to time.
