WXBJ holds 100% of equity interests of ZH which holds 100% of equity interest in Kashgar Times and Holgus X. WXBJ is the primary beneficiary of QY which holds 100% equity interest in SG, HX and LH (collectively “QY VIEs”). All of these entities included in the Company are under common control, which results in the consolidation of QY and ZH which have been accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control at carry value. The consolidated financial statements are prepared on the basis as if the reorganization became effective as of the beginning of the first period presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company.

Contracts between the Company and the QY VIEs

Foreign ownership of Internet-based businesses, including distribution of online information (such as game content provider), is subject to restrictions under current PRC laws, regulations, and other applicable laws and regulations. The Company is a Cayman Island company and WXBJ and WXZJ (its PRC subsidiaries) are considered foreign invested enterprises. To comply with these regulations, the Company operates the live streaming platforms through SG, HX and LH in PRC (its consolidated VIE). As such, QY is controlled through contractual arrangements in lieu of direct equity ownership by the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Such contractual arrangements consist of a series of three agreements and a shareholder power of attorney (collectively the “Contractual Arrangements”, which were signed on January 29, 2019).

The following is a summary of the various VIE agreements:

Exclusive Option Agreements

Pursuant to the exclusive option agreement (including its amendment or supplementary agreements, if any, the “Exclusive Option Agreement”) amongst WXBJ, QY and the nominee shareholders who collectively owned all of QY, the nominee shareholders irrevocably granted WXBJ or its designated party, an exclusive option to purchase all or part of the equity interests held by the nominee shareholders in QY, when and to the extent permitted under PRC law, at an amount equal to the lowest permissible purchase price as set by PRC law. QY cannot declare any profit distributions, or create any encumbrances in any form without the prior written consent of WXBJ. The nominee shareholders must remit in full any funds received from QY to WXBJ, in the event any distributions are made by the VIE pursuant to any written consents of WXBJ.

The Exclusive Option Agreement shall remain effective for twenty (20) years and shall be automatically extended for an additional period of one (1) year. The additional period automatically enters the renewal extension of one (1) year at the end of each extended additional period. WXBJ has the right to terminate this agreement at any time after giving a thirty (30) days’ prior termination notice.

Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreements

Pursuant to the exclusive business cooperation agreement (including its amendment or supplementary agreements, if any, the “Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement”) between WXBJ and the VIE, WXBJ is to provide exclusive business support, technical and consulting services related to all technologies needed for its business in return for fees that equals to all of the consolidated net income after offsetting previous year’s loss (if any) of SG, HX and LH.

The service fees may be adjusted by WXBJ based on the following factors:

● complexity and difficulty of the services pursuant to the business cooperation agreement to the VIE during the month (the “Monthly Services”)

● the number of WXBJ’s employees who provided the Monthly Services and the qualifications of the employees;

● the number of hours WXBJ’s employees spent to provide the Monthly Services;

● nature and value of the Monthly Services;

● market reference price; and

● the VIE’ operating conditions for the month.

The term of the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement is twenty (20) years and shall be automatically extended for an additional period of one (1) year. The additional period automatically enters the renewal extension of one (1) year at the end of each extended additional period. Besides, WXBJ has the right to terminate this agreement at any time after giving a thirty (30) days’ prior termination notice.

Power of Attorney Agreements

The nominee shareholders entered into the power of attorney agreement (including its amendment or supplementary agreements, if any, the “Power of Attorney Agreement”) whereby they granted an irrevocable proxy of the voting rights underlying their respective equity interests in the VIE to WXBJ, which includes, but are not limited to, all the shareholders’ rights and voting rights empowered to the nominee shareholders by the PRC company law and the VIE’s Article of Association. The power of attorney remains irrevocable and continuously valid from the date of execution so long as each shareholder remains as a shareholder of QY.

Share Pledge Agreements

Pursuant to the share pledge agreement (including its amendment or supplementary agreements, if any, the “Share Pledge Agreement”) between WXBJ, QY and the nominee shareholders, the nominee shareholders have pledged all their equity interests in the VIE to guarantee the performance of the VIE’ obligations under the Exclusive Option Agreement, Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement and Power of Attorney Agreement.

If the VIE breaches their respective contractual obligations under those agreements, WXBJ, as pledgee, will be entitled to certain rights, including the right to sell the pledged equity interests. The nominee shareholders agreed not to transfer, sell, pledge, dispose of or otherwise create any new encumbrance on their equity interests in the VIE without the prior written consent of WXBJ. The Share Pledge Agreement shall be continuously valid until all the its obligations under the VIE Agreements have been fulfilled, or the VIE Agreements are terminated, or the secured debts has been fully executed.

Based on the foregoing contractual arrangements, which grant WXBJ effective control of QY and its subsidiaries and obligate WXBJ to absorb all of the risk of loss from their activities and enable WXBJ to receive all of their expected residual returns, the Company accounts for QY as a VIE. Accordingly, the Company consolidates the accounts of QY for the periods presented herein, in accordance with Regulation S-X-3A-02 promulgated by the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810-10, Consolidation.
