GOLDEN PATH ACQUISITION CORPORATION PRELIMINARY— PROXY STATEMENT AND PROSPECTUS

PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS FOR 44,934,455 ORDINARY SHARES
AND EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS OF
GOLDEN PATH ACQUISITION CORPORATION

The Board of Directors of Golden Path Acquisition Corporation, a Cayman Islands exempted company, has unanimously approved the transaction (collectively, the “Business Combination”) contemplated by that certain Business Combination and Merger Agreement dated as of September 10, 2021 (“Business Combination Agreement” or “Merger Agreement”) by and among Golden Path Acquisition Corporation (“Golden Path”), Golden Path Merger Sub Corporation (“Golden Path Merger Sub”), a Cayman Islands exempted company incorporated for the purpose of effectuating the Business Combination, and MC Hologram Inc. (“MC”), a Cayman Islands exempted company. A copy of the Business Combination Agreement without exhibits is attached to this Proxy Statement as Annex A. As used in this proxy statement/prospectus, “New Golden Path” refers to Golden Path after giving effect to the consummation of the Business Combination and being renamed as MicroCloud Hologram Inc.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, MC will merge with Golden Path Merger Sub and survive the merger and continue as the surviving company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of New Golden Path and continue its business operations. The shareholders of MC will receive an aggregate of 44,554,455 Golden Path ordinary shares equal to approximately 84.07% of the post transaction ordinary shares issued and outstanding of Golden Path: (i) assuming that none of the current shareholders of Golden Path elect to redeem their ordinary shares in Golden Path; (ii) excluding ordinary shares underlying the warrants issued by Golden Path in its initial public offering completed on June 24, 2021 (“IPO”) and warrants to acquire 135,250 ordinary shares held by our sponsor, Greenland Asset Management Corporation; (iii) giving effect to the conversion of Golden Path Rights issued in its IPO and private placement into 602,050 ordinary shares; and (iv) the issuance of an aggregate of 380,000 ordinary shares as compensation to Peace Asset Management for services provided by Peace Asset Management in connection with sourcing MC as a business combination candidate. The time that the Business Combination becomes effective is referred to as the “Effective Time”.

MC operates its business through its subsidiaries in the PRC in which MC owns equity interests. As such, in light of the recent statements and regulatory actions by the PRC government, such as those related to the use of data security and anti-monopoly concerns, MC may be subject to the risks of uncertainty of any future actions of the PRC government in this regard, which may result in a material change in MC’s operations, including the ability of MC to carry on its current business or accept foreign investments, and any resulting adverse change in value to New Golden Path’s ordinary shares. MC may also be subject to penalties and sanctions imposed by the PRC regulatory agencies, including the Chinese Securities Regulatory Commission, if it fails to comply with such rules and regulations, which could adversely affect the ability of MC to list on Nasdaq or another foreign exchange, which may cause the value of New Golden Path securities to significantly decline or become worthless. For a detailed description of the risks facing MC, please refer to “Risk Factors — Risk Factors Relating to Doing Business in China — Adverse changes in China’s economic, political or social conditions, laws, regulations or government policies could have a material adverse effect on MC’s business, financial condition and results of operations.”

This proxy statement/prospectus is intended to cover the issuance of 44,554,455 ordinary shares being issued to certain MC shareholders and the resale of such ordinary shares subject to the lock-up and resale restrictions provided in the Business Combination Agreement as described elsewhere in this proxy/registration statement, which lock-up and resale restrictions shall prohibit the sale, transfer or assignment of 41,554,455 of such ordinary shares being issued to the MC shareholders. This proxy statement/prospectus is also intended to cover the issuance of 380,000 ordinary shares being issued to Peace Asset Management and resale of such ordinary shares subject to the same lock-up and resale restrictions as those applicable to our Sponsor.

Golden Path’s ordinary shares are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “GPCO”. Golden Path will apply for listing of the ordinary shares to be issued to the MC shareholders, and in connection therewith, apply for listing of the New Golden Path ordinary shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market (including the presently outstanding Golden Path ordinary shares) under a new symbol [“●”] to reflect the change of business resulting from the Business Combination and the anticipated name change from Golden Path to MicroCloud Hologram Inc. immediately following the Business Combination. It is a condition to the consummation of the Business Combination that Golden Path receives confirmation from Nasdaq that New Golden Path has been conditionally approved for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market following completion of the Business Combination. There can be no assurance that such listing condition will be satisfied or that Golden Path will receive confirmation from Nasdaq. If such listing condition is not met or if Golden Path does not receive confirmation, the Business Combination will not be consummated unless the parties waive the Nasdaq listing condition. Additionally, Golden Path also intends to obtain a new trading symbol of [“●W”] for its publicly traded warrants.

The accompanying proxy statement/prospectus provides shareholders of Golden Path with detailed information about the Business Combination and other matters to be considered at the Extraordinary General Meeting (defined below) of Golden Path. We encourage you to read the entire accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, including the Annexes and other documents referred to therein, carefully and in its entirety. You should also carefully consider the risk factors described in “Risk Factors” beginning on page 22 of the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus.

NEITHER THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION NOR ANY STATE SECURITIES REGULATORY AGENCY HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED THE TRANSACTIONS DESCRIBED IN THE ACCOMPANYING PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS, PASSED UPON THE MERITS OR FAIRNESS OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION OR RELATED TRANSACTIONS OR PASSED UPON THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THE DISCLOSURE IN THE ACCOMPANYING PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY CONSTITUTES A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

The accompanying Proxy Statement/Prospectus is dated [●], 2021
and first mailed to the shareholders of Golden Path Acquisition Corporation on or about [●], 2021

You are cordially invited to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting of Golden Path Acquisition Corporation. (“Golden Path,” “GPCO,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), which will be held at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on [●], 2021 (the “Extraordinary General Meeting”) at the offices of Becker & Poliakoff LLP, 45 Broadway, 17th Floor, New York, NY 10006. Golden Path is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company and incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses, which we refer to as a “target business” (the “Business Combination”). Golden Path completed its initial public offering on June 24, 2021.

One of the matters you will be asked to vote on at the Extraordinary General Meeting is the approval of a merger agreement and plan of merger, dated as of September 10, 2021 (the “Merger Agreement”), which provides for a Business Combination between Golden Path, Golden Path Merger Sub Corporation (“Golden Path Merger Sub”), a Cayman Islands exempted company incorporated for the purpose of effectuating the Business Combination, MC Hologram Inc. (“MC”), a Cayman Islands exempted company. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Golden Path Merger Sub will merge with and into MC, with MC surviving the merger to become a wholly owned subsidiary of Golden Path. For the purposes of this proxy statement/prospectus, “New Golden Path” refers to Golden Path after the consummation of the Business Combination.

The aggregate consideration for the Business Combination is $450,000,000, payable to the shareholders of MC in the form of approximately 44,554,455 newly issued Golden Path ordinary shares valued at $10.10 per ordinary share.

Upon the closing of the Business Combination, the following transactions and events will also be consummated:

At the Extraordinary General Meeting, Golden Path shareholders will be asked to consider and vote upon the following proposals:

Approval by way of special resolution of all other changes in connection with the amendment, restatement and replacement of the Golden Path’s memorandum and articles of association including, among other things, (1) making New Golden Path’s corporate existence perpetual, and (2) removing certain provisions related to Golden Path’s status as a blank check company that will no longer be applicable upon consummation of the Business Combination (the “Articles Amendment Proposal” or “Proposal 5”). For the purposes of the laws of the Cayman Islands, the full text of the resolution is as follows: “RESOLVED, as a special resolution, that the Memorandum of Association and the Articles of Association, copies of which are attached to the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, be and are hereby adopted as the memorandum and articles of association of the Company in substitution for and to the exclusion of the Company’s existing Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association;” and

Approval to adjourn the Extraordinary General Meeting under certain circumstances, which is more fully described in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, which we refer to as the “Adjournment Proposal” or Proposal 6”) and, together with the Business Combination Proposal, the Director Election Proposal, the Nasdaq Stock Issuance Proposal, the Name Change Proposal, the Articles Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal, the “Proposals.”

If the Business Combination Proposal is not approved, neither the Director Election Proposal, the Nasdaq Stock Issuance Proposal, Name Change Proposal, nor the Articles Amendment Proposal will be presented to the Golden Path shareholders for a vote. The approval of all of the Proposals other than the Adjournment Proposal are preconditions to the closing of the Business Combination with MC.

It is anticipated that, upon the consummation of the Business Combination, MC shareholders will own approximately 84.07% of the issued New Golden Path ordinary shares and the other shareholders of Golden Path, including the Sponsor (as defined below), will own approximately 15.93% of the issued New Golden Path ordinary shares.

These relative percentages assume that: (i) none of Golden Path’s existing public shareholders exercise their redemption rights, as discussed herein; (ii) Golden Path Rights are automatically converted to New Golden Path ordinary shares upon the consummation of the Business Combination; (iii) there is no exercise of Golden Path Warrants prior to the consummation of the Business Combination; and (iv) the issuance of an aggregate of 380,000 ordinary shares as compensation to Peace Asset Management for services provided by Peace Asset Management in connection with sourcing MC as a business combination candidate; If any of Golden Path’s existing public shareholders exercise their redemption rights, the anticipated percentage ownership of Golden Path’s existing shareholders will be reduced. You should read “Summary of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus — The Business Combination” and “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements” for further information.

Following the Business Combination, Golden Path will have the following securities issued and outstanding:

These relative percentages assume that (i) none of Golden Path’s existing public shareholders exercise their redemption rights, as discussed herein; (ii) Golden Path Rights are automatically converted to New Golden Path ordinary shares upon the consummation of the Business Combination; and (iii) there is no exercise of Golden Path Warrants prior to the consummation of the Business Combination. If any of Golden Path’s existing public shareholders exercise their redemption rights, the anticipated percentage ownership of Golden Path’s existing shareholders will be reduced. You should read “Summary of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus — The Business Combination” and “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements” for further information.

The Golden Path Units, Golden Path ordinary shares, Golden Path Rights and Golden Path Warrants are currently listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbols “GPCOU,” “GPCO,” “GPCOR” and “GPCOW” respectively. New Golden Path intends to apply to list the New Golden Path ordinary shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbols “[●]”, in connection with the closing of the Business Combination. Golden Path cannot assure you that the New Golden Path ordinary shares will be approved for listing on Nasdaq Capital Market.

Investing in New Golden Path securities involves a high degree of risk. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 22 for a discussion of information that should be considered in connection with an investment in New Golden Path securities.

As of September 10, 2021, there was approximately $58,075,671.26 in Golden Path’s trust account. On September 22, 2021, the last sale price of Golden Path ordinary shares was $9.90.

Pursuant to Golden Path’s amended and restated articles of association, Golden Path is providing its public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their shares of Golden Path ordinary shares at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in Golden Path’s trust account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest, less taxes payable, divided by the number of then outstanding shares of Golden Path ordinary shares that were sold in Golden Path’s IPO. Golden Path estimates that the per-share price at which public shares may be redeemed from cash held in the trust account will be approximately $10.10 at the time of the Extraordinary General Meeting. Golden Path’s public shareholders may elect to redeem their shares even if they vote for the Business Combination or the other Proposals or do not vote at all. Golden Path has no specified maximum redemption threshold under the Golden Path’s memorandum and articles of association.

Golden Path is providing this proxy statement/prospectus and accompanying proxy card to its shareholders in connection with the solicitation of proxies to be voted at the Extraordinary General Meeting and at any adjournments or postponements of the Extraordinary General Meeting. Only holders of Golden Path ordinary shares are entitled to vote on the Proposals. The Sponsor, which own in the aggregate approximately 22.90% of Golden Path ordinary shares as of the record date, has agreed to vote its Golden Path ordinary shares in favor of the Business Combination Proposal, and intends to vote for the Director Election Proposal, the Nasdaq Stock Issuance Proposals, the Name Change Proposal, the Articles Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal, although there is no agreement in place with respect to voting on those proposals.

Each Golden Path shareholder’s vote is very important. Whether or not you plan to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting in person, please submit your proxy card without delay. Golden Path’s shareholders may revoke proxies at any time before they are voted at the meeting. Voting by proxy will not prevent a Golden Path shareholder from voting in person if such shareholder subsequently chooses to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting. If you are a holder of record and you attend the Extraordinary General Meeting and wish to vote in person, you may withdraw your proxy and vote in person. Assuming that a quorum is present, attending the Extraordinary General Meeting either in person or by proxy and abstaining from voting will have the same effect as voting against all the Proposals. And broker non-votes will have no effect on any of the Proposals.

If you sign, date and return your proxy card without indicating how you wish to vote, your proxy will be voted in favor of each of the Proposals presented at the Extraordinary General Meeting. If you fail to return your proxy card or fail to instruct your bank, broker or other nominee how to vote, and do not attend the Extraordinary General Meeting in person, the effect will be that your shares will not be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the Extraordinary General Meeting of shareholders and, if a quorum is present, will have the effect of a vote against the Business Combination Proposal and no effect on the Adjournment Proposal. If you are a Golden Path shareholder of record and you attend the Extraordinary General Meeting and wish to vote in person, you may withdraw your proxy and vote in person.

We encourage you to read this proxy statement/prospectus carefully. In particular, you should review the matters discussed under the caption “Risk Factors” beginning on page 22.

Golden Path board of directors has unanimously approved the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein and described elsewhere in this the Proxy/Registration Statement, and unanimously recommends that Golden Path shareholders vote “FOR” approval of each of the Proposals. When you consider Golden Path board of director’s recommendation of these Proposals, you should keep in mind that Golden Path’s directors and officers have interests in the Business Combination that may conflict or differ from your interests as a shareholder. See “The Business Combination Proposal — Interests of Certain Persons in the Business Combination.”

On behalf of the Golden Path board of directors, I thank you for your support and we look forward to the successful consummation of the Business Combination.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the securities to be issued in the Business Combination or otherwise, or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this proxy statement/prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE BUSINESS COMBINATION AND
THE EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING

Approval of the Business Combination Proposal, Director Election Proposal, Nasdaq Stock Issuance Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding Golden Path ordinary shares present and entitled to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting to be passed as ordinary resolutions. The Name Change Proposal and Articles Amendment Proposal require the affirmative vote of at least a two-thirds majority of the issued and outstanding Golden Path ordinary shares present and entitled to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting to be passed as special resolutions.

Assuming that a quorum is present, attending the Extraordinary General Meeting either in person or by proxy and abstaining from voting will have the same effect as voting against the Business Combination Proposal and no effect on the other Proposals and failing to instruct your bank, brokerage firm or nominee to attend and vote your shares will have no effect on any of the Proposals.

As of the record date, 1,708,000 ordinary shares held by the initial shareholders (our Sponsor), or approximately 22.90% of the issued and outstanding Golden Path ordinary shares, would be voted in favor of each of the Proposals.

As a result of these purchases, our sponsor owns an aggregate of 1,708,000 ordinary shares which were acquired at an average price of $1.60 per share. Giving effect to the conversion of the rights held by our Sponsor into ordinary shares, our sponsor would own an aggregate of 1,735,050 shares acquired for an average acquisition price of $1.57 per share. Investors in our IPO paid a per share price of approximately $10.00 per share, without assigning a value to the warrants and rights included in the units. Therefore, our sponsor may earn a positive return on the ordinary shares owned by it even if the ordinary shares trade following the completion of the business combination below $10.00 per share and the IPO investors experience a loss on their return. The likely benefit to our sponsor and our directors and officers may influence their motivation for promoting the Business Combination and/or soliciting proxies for the approval of the Business Combination Proposal.

Further, in the event that the Business Combination with MC is not completed, and Golden Path is not able to consummate a business combination with any other proposed target business before June 23, 2022 (unless such date is extended in accordance with Golden Path’s constitutive documents), the securities held by the Sponsor and other insiders of Golden Path will become worthless.

Any corrected or changed written demand of redemption rights must be received by Golden Path’s transfer agent two business days prior to the Extraordinary General Meeting. No demand for redemption will be honored unless the holder’s shares have been delivered (either physically or electronically) to the transfer agent at least two business days prior to the vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting.

Public shareholders may seek to have their shares redeemed regardless of whether they vote for or against the Business Combination and whether or not they are holders of Golden Path ordinary shares as of the record date. Any public shareholder who holds Golden Path ordinary shares on or before [●], 2021 (two (2) business days before the Extraordinary General Meeting) will have the right to demand that his, her or its shares be redeemed for a pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, less any taxes then due but not yet paid, at the consummation of the Business Combination. If you have questions regarding the certification of your position or delivery of your shares, please contact:

If you are the purchaser of Golden Path ordinary shares after the record date, you must either (i) have a written agreement from the seller or transferor of the Golden Path ordinary shares whereby the seller/transferor agrees to vote the Golden Path ordinary shares in accordance with your instructions, or (ii) obtain a proxy from the seller/transferor which authorizes you to vote the Golden Path ordinary shares held in record name of the seller/transferor.

The Parties to the Business Combination

Golden Path Acquisition Corporation

Golden Path is a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands which was incorporated for the purpose of acquiring, engaging in a share exchange, share reconstruction and amalgamation with, purchasing all or substantially all of the assets of, entering into contractual arrangements with, or engaging in any other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. Although Golden Path’s efforts in identifying prospective target businesses will not be limited to a particular geographic region, it intends to focus on businesses that have a connection to the Asian market. Golden Path believes that it will add value to these businesses primarily by providing them with access to the U.S. capital markets.

Golden Path has 12 months from the date of Golden Path’s IPO (June 24, 2021) to consummate a prospective business combination. However, if Golden Path anticipates that it may not be able to consummate a business combination within 12 months, it may, by resolution of its board of directors extend the period of time to consummate a business combination up to nine times, each by an additional one month (for a total of up to 21 months to complete a business combination). In the event Golden Path does not consummate a business combination within 12 months from the closing of its IPO (or up to 21 months as previously described), it will cease operations and liquidate the trust account and distribute the funds included therein to the holders of its securities sold in its IPO and dissolve.

On June 24, 2021, Golden Path consummated the IPO of 5,000,000 units, at $10.00 per unit. In addition, Golden Path’s underwriters exercised in full the over-allotment option for an additional 750,000 units on the same date, resulting in the issuance and sale of an aggregate of 5,750,000 units, generating gross proceeds of $57,500,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, Golden Path consummated a private placement with its Sponsor, Greenland Asset Management Corporation, for the purchase of 270,500 Units (the “Private Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit, generating total proceeds of $2,705,000. The Sponsor has also previously loaned Golden Path the sum of $300,000, which loan was payable upon the earlier of completion of the IPO or December 31, 2021. In connection with the completion of the IPO, the Sponsor instructed Golden Path to offset payment of the note with a corresponding portion of the subscription price for the Private Unit purchase.

After deducting the underwriting discounts, the pre-IPO Sponsor loan, offering expenses, and commissions from the IPO and the sale of the Private Units, a total of $58,075,002 was deposited into a trust account established for the benefit of Golden Path’s public shareholders with Wilmington Trust, National Association acting as trustee, at an account at Morgan Stanley, and the remaining proceeds became available to be used to provide for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective business combinations and continuing general and administrative expenses.

As of June 30, 2021, Golden Path has approximately cash of $509,568 and cash held in escrow of $9,000 were held outside of the Trust Account and is available for the payment of offering costs and for working capital purposes. The net proceeds deposited into the trust account remain on deposit in the trust account earning interest. As of June 30, 2021, there was $58,075,002 held in the trust account.

Golden Path’s units, ordinary shares, warrants and rights are each quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market, under the symbols “GPCOU,” “GPCO,” “GPCOW” and “GPCOR,” respectively. Each Golden Path Unit consists of one share of ordinary share, one warrant entitling its holder to purchase one-half of one share of ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per whole share, and one right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one share of ordinary share upon the consummation of the Business Combination. Golden Path’s units commenced trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market on June 23, 2021. Golden Path’s ordinary shares, public rights and public warrants commenced trading separately on the Nasdaq Capital Market on July 30, 2021.

Since completing its initial public offering, Golden Path has been dedicating its management’s time and efforts to sourcing a target business. Golden Path has until June 23, 2022 to consummate a business combination. However, if Golden Path anticipates that it may not be able to consummate a business combination within 12 months, Golden Path may extend the period of time to consummate a business combination up to nine times, each by an additional month (for a total of 21 months to complete a business combination (the “combination period”). In order to extend the time available for Golden Path to consummate a business combination, the Sponsor or its affiliate or designees must deposit into the Trust Account $191,667 (approximately $0.033 per public Ordinary Share), up to an aggregate of $1,725,000, or $0.30 per public ordinary share, on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each one-month extension. Any funds which may be provided to extend the time frame will be in the form of a loan to us from our Sponsor. The terms of any such loan have not been definitely negotiated, provided, however, any loan will be interest free and will be repayable only if Golden Path completes a business combination. If Golden Path is unable to complete a business combination within the combination period, Golden Path will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding public Golden Path ordinary shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned (net of taxes payable and less interest to pay dissolution expenses up to $50,000), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and Golden Path’s board of directors, proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of Golden Path, subject in each case to its obligations to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of applicable law. The underwriter has agreed to waive its rights to the deferred underwriting commission held in the trust account in the event Golden Path does not complete a business combination within the combination period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the public Golden Path ordinary shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the initial public offering price per unit ($10.00).

On November 10, 2020, MC was incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands under the name of MC Hologram Inc. MC’s principal executive offices are located at Room 302, Building A, Zhongkenaneng Building, Yuexing Sixth Road, Nanshan District, Shenzhen, People’s Republic of China. MC’s telephone number at this address is +86 (0755)-22912036. MC’s registered office in the Cayman Islands is located at the office of Sertus Incorporations (Cayman) Limited, Sertus Chambers, Governors Square, Suite #5-204, 23 Lime Tree Bay Avenue, P.O. Box 2547, Grand Cayman, KY1-1104, Cayman Islands. After the consummation of the Business Combination, MC will become a wholly owned subsidiary of New Golden Path.

MC operates its business through its subsidiaries in the PRC in which MC owns equity interests. As such, in light of the recent statements and regulatory actions by the PRC government, such as those related to the use of data security and anti-monopoly concerns, MC may be subject to the risks of uncertainty of any future actions of the PRC government in this regard, which may result in a material change in MC’s operations, including the ability of MC to carry on its current business or accept foreign investments, and the resulting adverse change in value to New Golden Path’s ordinary shares. MC may also be subject to penalties and sanctions imposed by the PRC regulatory agencies, including the Chinese Securities Regulatory Commission, if it fails to comply with such rules and regulations, which could adversely affect the ability of MC to list on Nasdaq or another foreign exchange, which may cause the value of New Golden Path securities to significantly decline or become worthless. For a detailed description of the risks facing MC, please refer to “Risk Factors — Risk Factors Relating to Doing Business in China — Adverse changes in China’s economic, political or social conditions, laws, regulations or government policies could have a material adverse effect on MC’s business, financial condition and results of operations.”

The information contained on, or accessible through, MC’s websites are not incorporated by reference into this proxy statement, and you should not consider any information contained on, or that can be accessed through, MC’s websites as part of this proxy statement or in deciding how to vote your shares. For more information on MC, please see the sections entitled “Business of MC” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of MC.”

Effect of the Completion of the Business Combination Upon Our Corporate Ownership Structure

Assuming the Business Combination with MC is consummated, the corporate structure described above, including ownership of MC’s PRC subsidiaries will remain the same. However, MC will be owned by Golden Path, which in turn will be owned by its shareholders, including the shareholders of MC receiving the shares in the Merger, the IPO investors and our Sponsor.

The following table illustrates the ownership structure of Golden Path immediately following the Business Combination. The ownership percentages set forth below do not take into account the exercise of any issued and outstanding Golden Path Warrants into New Golden Path ordinary shares. None of the parties in the chart below purchase Golden Path ordinary shares in the open market; and other than the conversion of outstanding Golden Path rights into 602,050 New Golden Path ordinary shares, there are no other issuances of equity by Golden Path prior to or in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination.

The equity interests shown in the table below were calculated based on the assumptions that (i) no Golden Path shareholder exercises its redemption, and (ii) Maximum Golden Path shareholder properly exercises its redemption, or 5,750,000 ordinary shares, represents the maximum redemption.

	Assuming No Redemption			Assuming Maximum Redemption
Golden Path’ public shareholders		11.94	%		1.22	%
Golden Path’ initial shareholders (Sponsor)		3.27	%		3.67	%
MC shareholders		84.07	%		94.31	%

Effects of PRC foreign exchange regulations on MC’s ability to transfer assets within MC’s organization

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

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

Golden Path Merger Sub

Golden Path Merger Sub was incorporated on August 19, 2021 under the laws of Cayman Islands for the purpose of effecting the Business Combination and to serve as the vehicle for, and be subsumed into, MC pursuant to the Business Combination.

The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement

The Merger Agreement was entered into by and among Golden Path, Golden Path Merger Sub, and MC on September 10, 2021. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Golden Path Merger Sub will merge with and into MC, with MC continuing as the Surviving Company and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Golden Path. Golden Path shall continue to be publicly listed and will change its name to “MicroCloud Hologram Inc.” immediately after the consummation of the Business Combination. New Golden Path refers to Golden Path immediately following the consummation of the Business Combination.

The aggregate consideration for the Business Combination is $450,000,000, payable in the form of approximately 44,554,455 newly issued Golden Path ordinary shares to MC shareholders. At the closing of the Business Combination, the issued and outstanding shares and all other equity interests in MC held by MC shareholders will be cancelled and ceased to exist, in exchange for the issuance of an aggregate of approximately 44,554,455 Golden Path ordinary shares. Following completion of the Merger, MC will be wholly-owned by New Golden Path.

For more information about the Business Combination, please see the sections titled “The Business Combination Proposal.” A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A.

Post-Business Combination Structure and Impact on the Public Float

The following table illustrates the ownership structure of Golden Path immediately following the Business Combination. The equity interests shown in the table below were calculated based on the assumptions that (i) no Golden Path shareholder exercises its redemption, (ii) none of the parties in the chart below purchase Golden Path ordinary shares in the open market; and (iii) other than the conversion of outstanding Golden Path rights into 602,050 New Golden Path ordinary shares, (iv) issue an aggregate of 380,000 ordinary shares as compensation to Peace Asset Management for services provided by Peace Asset Management in connection with sourcing MC as a business combination candidate, there are no other issuances of equity by Golden Path prior to or in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the ownership percentages set forth below do not take into account the exercise of any issued and outstanding Golden Path Warrants into New Golden Path ordinary shares.

	Scenario 1 Combined (Assuming No Redemptions Into Cash)			Scenario 2 Combined (Assuming Maximum Redemptions Into Cash)
Weighted average shares calculation, basic and diluted
Golden Path public shares		5,750,000			0
Golden Path shares converted from rights		602,050			602,050
Golden Path Sponsor shares		1,708,000			1,708,000
Golden Path shares issued to Peace Asset Management		380,000			380,000
Golden Path shares issued in the Business Combination		44,554,455			44,554,455
Weighted average shares outstanding		52,994,505			47,244,505
Percent of shares owned by MC shareholders		84.07	%		94.31	%
Percent of shares owned by Golden Path		15.21	%		4.89	%
Percent of shares owned by Peace Asset Management		0.72	%		0.80	%

If the actual facts are different from these assumptions, the percentage ownership retained by Golden Path’s public shareholders following the Business Combination will be different. The public warrants and private placement warrants will become exercisable upon on the later of the completion of a business combination and 12 months from the date of this prospectus, and will expire five (5) years after the completion of the Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

Of the total 44,554,455 ordinary shares issued in the merger to the MC shareholders, 3,000,000 ordinary shares will be freely tradeable under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and free of any lockup restrictions. These 3,000,000 ordinary shares will be included in the determination of the public float for compliance with Nasdaq listing purposes.

Domestic Issuer Status

After the consummation of the Business Combination and the completion of this offering, New Golden Path will remain a domestic filer until at least June 30, 2022, on which date New Golden Path will reassess whether it qualifies as a “foreign private issuer”. New Golden Path may qualify as a “foreign private issuer” on June 30, 2022, after which New Golden Path will become exempt from certain rules under the Exchange Act that would otherwise apply if New Golden Path was a domestic issuer. For example, as a “foreign private issuer”, New Golden Path:

●

will not be required to provide as the Exchange Act reports, or as frequently or as promptly, as domestic issuers with securities registered under the Exchange Act. For example, New Golden Path will only be required to furnish current reports on Form 6-K any information that New Golden Path (a) makes or is required to make public under the laws of the Cayman Islands, (b) files or is required to file under the rules of any stock exchange or (c) otherwise distributes or is required to distribute to its shareholders. In addition, New Golden Path will not be required to file its annual report on Form 10-K, which may be due as soon as 60 days after its fiscal year end. As a “foreign private issuer”, New Golden Path will be required to file an annual report on Form 20-F within four months after its fiscal year end;

●

will not be required to provide the same level of disclosure on certain issues, such as executive compensation or be required to conduct advisory votes on executive compensation;

●

will be exempt from filing quarterly reports under the Exchange Act with the SEC;

●

will not be subject to the requirement to comply with Regulation Fair Disclosure, or Regulation FD, which imposes certain restrictions on the selected disclosure of material information;

●

will not be required to comply with the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents or authorizations in respect of a security registered under the Exchange Act; and

●

will not be required to comply with Section 16 of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their stock ownership and trading activities and establishing insider liability for profits realized from any “short-swing” trading transaction.

Management and Board of Directors Following the Business Combination

Effective as of the closing of the Business Combination, the board of directors of New Golden Path will consist of five members, four of whom will be nominated by MC. In order to continue to satisfy the Nasdaq Capital Market listing standards, at least three of the members of the board of directors will be independent in accordance with the Nasdaq listing rules. Additionally, at least one member must be designated and qualify as a “financial expert” under Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. See section titled “New Golden Path’s Directors and Executive Officers after the Business Combination” for additional information.

Other Documents Relating to the Business Combination

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the transactions and the execution of the Merger Agreement, Golden Path and MC shareholders have entered into a registration rights agreement as of September 10, 2021, to provide for the resale registration with respect to the shares issued to MC shareholders in connection with the Business Combination.

Lock-up Agreements

In connection with the closing of the Merger, Golden Path will enter into a Lock-Up Agreement with each MC shareholder and Peace Asset Management with respect to certain lock-up arrangements, which will provide that such MC shareholder and Peace Asset Management will not, within certain period of time from the closing of the Business Combination, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, subject to express carve-outs therein, any of the shares issued in connection with the Business Combination, enter into a transaction that would have the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such shares, whether any of these transactions are to be settled by delivery of any such shares, in cash, or otherwise. Our Sponsor, Greenland Asset Management Corporation, and the pre-merger officers and directors of Golden Path executed a similar lock-up agreement in connection with completion of the Golden Path IPO.

The Lock-up Agreement provides that all shares held by the parties to the lock-up agreements will be subject to restrictions of sale, transfer or assignment as follows: (A) 50% of the shares until the earlier of (i) six (6) months after the date of the consummation of the Merger or (ii) the date on which the closing price of our ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after the Merger, and (B) the remaining 50% of the shares may not be transferred, assigned or sold until six months after the date of the consummation of the Merger.

Non-competition and Non-solicitation Agreements

In connection with the transactions, Golden Path and MC will enter into a Non-competition and Non-solicitation Agreement (the form of which is attached as Exhibit E to the Merger Agreement) with MC major shareholder in favor of Golden Path and MC. Pursuant to these agreements, the MC shareholders shall agree not to compete with MC’s business, nor support any affiliate in competing with MC’s business during the two years following the closing of the Merger. Additionally, none of such persons will encourage, induce or solicit any employee, director or officer of MC to leave MC.

Redemption Rights

You will be entitled to receive cash for any public shares to be redeemed only if you:

(i)

hold public Golden Path ordinary shares or hold public Golden Path ordinary shares through Golden Path Units and you elect to separate your Golden Path Units into the underlying public Golden Path ordinary shares, public Golden Path Rights and public Golden Path Warrants prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the public Golden Path ordinary shares; and

(ii)

prior to [●], (a) submit a written request to the transfer agent that Golden Path redeems your public shares for cash and (b) deliver your public shares to the transfer agent, physically or electronically through DTC.

Holders of outstanding Golden Path Units must separate the underlying Golden Path ordinary shares, Golden Path Warrants and Golden Path Rights prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the Golden Path ordinary shares. If Golden Path Units are registered in a holder’s own name, the holder must deliver the certificate for its Golden Path Units to the transfer agent with written instructions to separate the Golden Path Units into their individual component parts. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit the mailing of the certificates back to the holder so that the holder may then exercise his, her or its redemption rights upon the separation of the Golden Path ordinary shares from the Golden Path Units.

If a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee holds Golden Path Units for an individual or entity (the “beneficial owner”), the beneficial owner must instruct such nominee to separate the beneficial owner’s Golden Path Units into their individual component parts. The beneficial owner’s nominee must send written instructions by facsimile to the transfer agent. Such written instructions must include the number of Golden Path Units to be separated and the nominee holding such Golden Path Units. The beneficial owner’s nominee must also initiate electronically, using DTC’s DWAC system, a withdrawal of the relevant Golden Path Units and a deposit of an equal number of Golden Path ordinary shares, Golden Path Warrants and Golden Path Rights. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit the nominee to exercise the beneficial owner’s redemption rights upon the separation of the Golden Path ordinary shares from the Golden Path Units. While this is typically done electronically the same business day, beneficial owners should allow at least one full business day to accomplish the separation. If the beneficial owners fail to cause their Golden Path ordinary shares to be separated in a timely manner, they will likely not be able to exercise their redemption rights.

In seeking shareholder approval of the Business Combination, Golden Path’s Memorandum and Articles of Association provides that a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the ordinary shares sold in Golden Path’s IPO, which Golden Path refers to as the “Excess Shares.” However, Golden Path would not be restricting shareholders’ ability to vote all of their shares (including Excess Shares) for or against the Business Combination.

The Proposals

At the Extraordinary General Meeting, the Golden Path’s shareholders will be asked to vote on the following:

●

the Business Combination Proposal to approve the Business Combination;

●

the Director Election Proposal;

●

the Nasdaq Stock Issuance Proposal;

●

the Name Change Proposal;

●

the Articles Amendment Proposal; and

●

The Adjournment Proposal to approve the adjournment of the Extraordinary General Meeting in the event Golden Path does not receive the requisite shareholder vote to approve the Business Combination.

Please see the sections titled “The Extraordinary General Meeting” on page 1 for more information on the foregoing Proposals.

Voting Securities, Record Date

As of [●], there were 7,458,000 shares of Golden Path ordinary shares issued and outstanding. Only Golden Path’s shareholders who hold shares of Golden Path ordinary shares of record as of the close of business on [●] (“Record Date”) are entitled to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting or any adjournment of the Extraordinary General Meeting. Approval of the Business Combination Proposal will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued Golden Path ordinary shares entitled to vote thereon which were present at the meeting to approve the Business Combination. Approval of the Directors Election Proposal, the Nasdaq Stock Issuance Proposal and Adjournment Proposal will require the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued Golden Path ordinary shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Extraordinary General Meeting and entitled to vote on such matter. Approval of the Name Change Proposal, and the Articles Amendment Proposal will require the affirmative vote of at least a two-thirds majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued Golden Path ordinary shares of the Company present in person or represented by proxy at the Extraordinary General Meeting and entitled to vote on such matter (to be passed as special resolutions).

As of [●], the initial shareholders collectively owned and were entitled to vote 1,708,000 shares of Golden Path ordinary shares, or approximately 22.90% of Golden Path’s issued and outstanding shares. With respect to the Business Combination, the initial shareholders which own approximately 22.90% of Golden Path’s outstanding shares as of the Record Date, have agreed to vote its Golden Path ordinary shares in favor of Business Combination Proposal although there is no agreement in place with respect to voting on the other Proposals.

Anticipated Accounting Treatment

The Business Combination will be accounted for as a reverse merger in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Golden Path will be treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. This determination was primarily based on the holders of MC expecting to have a majority of the voting power of the post-combination company, MC’s senior management comprising all of the senior management of New Golden Path, the relative size of MC compared to Golden Path, and MC’s operations comprising the ongoing operations of New Golden Path. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination will be treated as the equivalent of MC’s issuing shares for the net assets of Golden Path, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Golden Path will be stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination will be those of MC.

Regulatory Approvals

The Business Combination and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are not subject to any additional U.S. federal or state regulatory requirements or approvals, or any regulatory requirements or approvals under the laws of the Cayman Islands, except for the registration by the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands of the Plan of Merger.

MC is currently not required to obtain approvals from the PRC authorities to list on the U.S. stock exchanges and thus have not received any explicit permission or denial from the China Securities Regulatory Commission (“CSRC”), the Cyberspace Administration of China (“CAC”) or other PRC authorities. However, there are uncertainties when and whether MC will be required to obtain permission from the PRC government to list on the U.S. stock exchanges in the future, and even when such permission is obtained, whether it will be denied or rescinded. For a description of regulations applicable to MC, please refer to “Regulations Applicable to MC.”

Interests of Certain Persons in the Business Combination

When you consider the recommendation of Golden Path’s board of directors in favor of approval of the Business Combination Proposal and the other related Proposals, you should keep in mind that Golden Path’s directors and officers have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, your interests as a shareholder, including the following:

●

If the proposed Business Combination is not completed by June 23, 2022, the date that is 12 months from the closing of the IPO (or March 23, 2023, the date that is 21 months from the closing of the IPO, if the time period is extended as previously described herein), Golden Path will cease all operations and liquidate as previously described herein, in such event:

●

the 1,437,500 ordinary shares of Golden Path held by the initial shareholders, which were acquired prior to the IPO for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, will be worthless. Such shares had an aggregate market value of approximately $[●] based on the closing price of Golden Path ordinary shares of $[●] on the Nasdaq Capital Market as of [●];

●

the 270,500 private units purchased by the Sponsor for a total purchase price of $2,705,000, will be worthless. Such private units had an aggregate market value of approximately $[●] closing price of Golden Path Units of $[●] on the Nasdaq Capital Market as of [●];

Recommendations of Golden Path’s Board of Directors to Golden Path’s Shareholders

After careful consideration of the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, the Golden Path’s board of directors has determined that the Business Combination and the transactions contemplated thereby are fair to and in the best interests of Golden Path and its shareholders. In reaching its decision with respect to the Business Combination, the Golden Path’s board of directors reviewed various industry and financial data and the due diligence and evaluation materials provided by MC. The Golden Path’s board of directors also obtained a fairness opinion on which to base its assessment. Golden Path’s board of directors recommends that Golden Path’s shareholders vote:

●

the Business Combination Proposal to approve the Business Combination;

●

the Director Election Proposal;

●

the Nasdaq Stock Issuance Proposal;

●

the Name Change Proposal;

●

the Articles Amendment Proposal; and

●

The Adjournment Proposal to approve the adjournment of the Extraordinary General Meeting in the event Golden Path does not receive the requisite shareholder vote to approve the Business Combination.

Risk Factors

In evaluating the Business Combination and the Proposals to be considered and voted on at the Extraordinary General Meeting, you should carefully review and consider the risk factors set forth under the section titled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 22 of this proxy statement/prospectus. Below is a summary of material factors that make an investment in our ordinary shares speculative or risky. Importantly, this summary does not address all of the risks that we and MC face. The occurrence of one or more of the events or circumstances described in that section, alone or in combination with other events or circumstances, may have a material adverse effect on (i) Golden Path’s ability to complete the Business Combination, and (ii) the business, cash flows, financial condition and results of operations of New Golden Path following consummation of the Business Combination. These risks include, but are not limited to the following:

●

The holographic technology service industry is developing rapidly and affected by continuous technological changes, with the risk that MC cannot continue to make the correct strategic investment and develop new products to meet customer needs.

●

Adverse conditions in the related industries, such as the automotive industry, or the global economy in general could have adverse effects on MC’s results of operations.

●

MC may be materially and adversely affected by the complexity, uncertainties and changes in the PRC laws and regulations governing Internet-related industries and companies.

●

MC may become subject to a variety of laws and regulations in the PRC regarding the payment of dividends, the transfer of cash between MC, other subsidiaries and New Golden Path, privacy, data security, cybersecurity, and data protection.

●

Adverse changes in China’s economic, political or social conditions, laws, regulations or government policies could have a material adverse effect on MC’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

●

You may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing actions in China against New Golden Path or its management named in the prospectus based on foreign laws.

●

The recent joint statement by the SEC and the PCAOB, proposed rule changes submitted by Nasdaq, and the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act all call for additional and more stringent criteria to be applied to emerging market companies, including companies based in China, upon assessing the qualification of their auditors, especially the non-U.S. auditors who are not inspected by the PCAOB.

	●	The PRC government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which MC and its PRC subsidiaries must conduct its business activities. MC is currently not required to obtain approval from Chinese authorities to list on U.S. exchanges, however, if MC or its PRC subsidiaries were required to obtain approval in the future and were denied permission from Chinese authorities to list on U.S. exchanges, MC will not be able to continue listing on U.S. exchange, which would materially affect the interest of the investors.

	●	The approval of the China Securities Regulatory Commission may be required in connection with this business combination and offering under a regulation adopted in August 2006, and, if required, MC cannot assure you that MC will be able to obtain such approval.

	●	Golden Path is requiring shareholders who wish to redeem their Golden Path ordinary shares in connection with the Business Combination to comply with specific requirements for redemption that may make it more difficult for them to exercise their redemption rights prior to the deadline for exercising their rights.

	●	Golden Path’s directors and officers may have certain conflicts in determining to recommend the acquisition of MC, since certain of their interests, and certain interests of their affiliates and associates, are different from, or in addition to, your interests as a shareholder.

	●	There are risks to our shareholders who are not affiliates of the Sponsor of becoming shareholders of the Post-Business Combination company through the Business Combination rather than acquiring securities of MC directly in an underwritten public offering, including no independent due diligence review by an underwriter and conflicts of interest of the Sponsor.

	●	In the event that a significant number of Golden Path shares are redeemed, New Golden Path ordinary shares may become less liquid following the Business Combination.

	●	New Golden Path’s share price may be volatile and could decline substantially and the sale or availability for sale of substantial amounts ordinary shares could adversely affect New Golden Path’s market price.

Other Golden Path Considerations

The Board of Directors focused its analysis on whether the Business Combination is likely to generate a return for Golden Path’s shareholders that is greater than if the trust were to be liquidated. Our Board of Directors unanimously concluded that the Merger Agreement with MC is fair to and in the best interests of the Golden Path shareholders. See “The Business Combination Proposal — Basis for Golden Path Board of Directors’ Recommendation — Fairness Opinion”.

Each GPCO Unit consists of one share of ordinary share, one warrant entitling its holder to purchase one-half of one share of ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per whole share, and one right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon the consummation of the Business Combination. Golden Path’s units commenced trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market on June 23, 2021. Golden Path’s ordinary shares, rights and warrants commenced trading separately on the Nasdaq Capital Market on July 30, 2021.

Golden Path has not paid any cash dividends on its ordinary share to date and does not intend to pay cash dividends prior to the completion of a business combination. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon Golden Path’s revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and general financial condition subsequent to completion of a business combination. The payment of any dividends subsequent to the Business Combination will be at the discretion of Golden Path’s board of directors. It is the present intention of Golden Path’s board of directors to retain all earnings, if any, for use in its business operations and, accordingly, Golden Path’s board does not anticipate declaring any dividends in the foreseeable future.

Securities being issued to MC’s shareholders in connection with the Business Combination are not currently publicly traded. Golden Path is applying to the New Golden Path ordinary shares issued in connection with the Business Combination on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Golden Path has applied to Nasdaq to use the symbol “[●]” for New Golden Path ordinary shares and [“●W”] for the New Golden Path warrants following completion of the Business Combination.

Shareholders should carefully consider the following risk factors, together with all of the other information included in this proxy statement/prospectus before they decide whether to vote or instruct their vote to be cast to approve the Proposals described in this proxy statement/prospectus. These risks could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial conditions, and results of operations of Golden Path, and could adversely affect the trading price of New Golden Path’s securities following the Business Combination.

The holographic service industry develops rapidly, and MC’s success depends on its ability to continuously develop and implement services and solutions that predict and respond to rapid and ongoing changes in holographic technology and the industry, and to continuously provide services that meet the changing needs of customers. If MC does not invest enough in new technologies, or if it does not make the right strategic investments to address these developments and drive innovation, its competitive advantage may be negatively impacted. To maintain and enhance MC’s current competitive position, MC needs to continuously introduce new solutions and services to meet customers’ needs.

Research and development of new technologies and solutions require substantial investments of human resources and capital. However, there is no guarantee that MC’s research and development will be successful, or that MC could achieve the excepted return on its human resources and capital investments. While MC intends to invest substantial resources to remain on the forefront of technological development, continuing changes in holographic technology and the markets, including the ADAS and autonomous driving industries, LiDAR and holographic digital twin technology service industries, could adversely affect adoption of holographic technology and/or MC’s products, either generally or for particular applications. MC’s future success will depend upon its ability to develop and introduce a variety of new capabilities and innovations to its existing product offerings, as well as the ability to introduce a variety of new product offerings, to address the changing needs of the markets. If MC is unable to devote adequate resources to develop products or cannot otherwise successfully develop products or system configurations that meet customer requirements on a timely basis or that remain competitive with technological alternatives, its products could lose market share, its revenue may decline, and its business and prospects may be adversely affected.

In addition, MC’s success to date has been based on the delivery of holography-centered software and hardware solutions to research and development programs in which developers are investing substantial capital to develop new systems. MC’s continued success relies on the success of the research and development phase of these customers as they expand into commercialized projects. For example, with respect to MC’s holographic ADAS segment, most of MC’s automotive customers are just beginning on the path to commercialization, as large-scale commercialization of the autonomous driving industry is yet to start. As holographic technology reaches the stage of large-scale commercialization, MC will be required to develop and deliver holography-centered software and hardware solutions at price points that enable wider and ultimately mass-market adoption. In addition, the delays in introducing products and innovations, and the failure to choose correctly among technical alternatives or the failure to offer innovative products or configurations at competitive prices may cause existing and potential customers to purchase MC’s competitors’ products or turn to alternative technologies.

MC’s competitive position and results of operations could be harmed if MC does not compete effectively.

The holographic service market is characterized by intense competition, new industry standards, limited barriers to entry, disruptive technology developments, short product life cycles, customer price sensitivity and frequent product introductions (including alternatives with limited functionality available at lower costs or free of charge). Any of these factors could create downward pressure on pricing and profitability and could adversely affect MC’s ability to retain current customers or attract new customers. MC’s future success will depend on the ability to continuously enhance and integrate MC’s existing products and services, introduce new products and services in a timely and cost-effective manner, meet changing customer expectations and needs, extend MC’s core technology into new applications, and anticipate emerging standards, business models, software delivery methods and other technological developments. Furthermore, some of MC’s current and potential competitors enjoy competitive advantages such as greater financial, technical, sales, marketing and other resources, broader brand awareness, and access to larger customer bases. As a result of these advantages, potential and current customers might select the products and services of MC’s competitors, which may cause a loss of market share to MC.

Adverse conditions in the related industries, such as the automotive industry, or the global economy in general could have adverse effects on MC’s results of operations.

MC’s business is dependent, in large part on, and directly affected by, business cycles and other factors affecting the related industries, such as the automobile industry, and the global economy in general. Automotive production and sales are highly cyclical and depend on general economic conditions and other factors, including consumer spending and preferences, changes in interest rates and credit availability, consumer confidence, fuel costs, fuel availability, environmental impact, governmental incentives and regulatory requirements, and political volatility, especially in energy-producing countries and growth markets. In addition, automotive production and sales can be affected by MC’s automotive customers’ ability to continue operating in response to challenging economic conditions and in response to labor relations issues, regulatory requirements, trade agreements and other factors. The volume of automotive production in China has fluctuated, sometimes significantly, from year to year, and MC expects such fluctuations to give rise to fluctuations in the demand for its products. In addition, adverse conditions in the global economy in general could also adversely affect the results of operations of MC’s customers. Any significant adverse changes in the results of operations of MC’s customers could in turn have material adverse effects on MC’s business, results of operations and financial position.

The market adoption of LiDAR, especially holographic LiDAR technology, is uncertain. If market adoption of LiDAR does not continue to develop, or develops more slowly than MC expects, its business will be adversely affected.

MC’s holographic LiDAR-based ADAS solutions can be applied to different use cases across end markets. Despite the fact that the automotive industry has engaged in considerable effort to research and test LiDAR products for ADAS and autonomous driving applications, the application of LiDAR products, especially holographic LiDAR products, in commercially available vehicles has been generally limited. MC continually studies emerging and competing sensing technologies and methodologies and it may add new sensing technologies to address LiDAR’s relative deficiencies in detecting colors and low reflectivity objects and performing in extreme weather conditions. However, LiDAR products remain relatively new, and it is possible that other sensing modalities, or a new disruptive modality based on new or existing technology, including a combination of different technologies, will achieve acceptance or leadership in the ADAS and autonomous driving industries. Even if LiDAR products are used in initial generations of autonomous driving technology and certain ADAS products, MC cannot guarantee that LiDAR products will be designed into or included in subsequent generations of such commercialized technology.

Market growth potentials for ADAS or autonomous vehicles is difficult to predict, especially in light of the economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. By the time mass market adoption of autonomous vehicle technology is achieved, MC expects competition among providers of sensing technology based on LiDAR and other modalities to increase substantially. If commercialization of LiDAR products is not successful, or not as successful as MC or the market expects, or if other sensing modalities gain acceptance by market participants and regulators by the time autonomous vehicle technology achieves mass market adoption, MC’s business, results of operations and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected.

MC is investing in and pursuing market opportunities outside of the automotive markets, including but not limited to industrial and security robots, mapping applications for topography and surveying and smart city initiatives. MC believes that its future revenue growth, if any, will depend in part on its ability to expand within new markets such as these and to enter new markets as they emerge. Each of these markets presents distinct risks and, in many cases, requires MC to address the particular requirements of that market. Addressing these requirements can be time-consuming and costly. The market for LiDAR technology outside of automotive applications is relatively new, rapidly developing and unproven in many markets or industries. Many of MC’s customers outside of the automotive industry are still in the testing and development phases and it cannot be certain that they will commercialize products or systems with its LiDAR products or at all. MC cannot be certain that LiDAR will be sold into these markets, or any market outside of automotive market, at scale. If LiDAR technology does not achieve commercial success outside of the automotive industry, or if the market develops at a pace slower than MC expects, its business, results of operation and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected.

MC’s results of operations could materially suffer in the event of insufficient pricing to enable MC to meet profitability expectations.

If MC is not able to obtain sufficient pricing for its services and solutions, MC’s revenues and profitability could materially suffer. The rates MC is able to charge for services and solutions are affected by a number of factors, including:

In addition, MC’s profitability with respect to services and solutions for new technologies may be different when compared to the profitability of MC’s current business, due to factors such as the use of alternative pricing, the mix of work and the number of service providers, among others.

The competitive environment in the holographic technology service industry and related industries in the PRC affects MC’s ability to obtain favorable pricing in a number of ways, any of which could have a material negative impact on MC’s results of operations. The less MC is able to differentiate and/or clearly convey the value of MC’s services and solutions, the more likely that price will become the driving factor in selecting a service provider. In addition, the introduction of new services or products by competitors could reduce MC’s ability to obtain favorable pricing for the services or products that MC offers. Competitors may be willing, at times, to price contracts lower than MC in an effort to enter new markets or increase market share. Further, if competitors develop and implement methodologies that yield greater efficiency and productivity, they may be better positioned to offer similar services at lower prices. As such, failure to adopt a sufficient pricing policy or adjust its pricing policy in a timely and effective manner could adversely and materially affect MC’s competitive position in the industry, which could adversely and materially affect MC’s operations and financial conditions.

MC expects to incur substantial research and development costs and devote significant resources to identifying and commercializing new products, which could significantly reduce its profitability, and there is no guarantee that such efforts would eventually generate revenue for MC.

MC’s future growth depends on penetrating new markets, adapting existing technologies and products to new applications and customer requirements, and introducing new services and products that achieve market acceptance. MC plans to incur substantial and potentially increasing, research and development costs as part of its efforts to design, develop, manufacture, and commercialize new products and enhance existing products. MC’s research and development expenses were RMB 57.8 million and RMB 86.0 million in 2019 and 2020, respectively, and are likely to grow in the future. Because MC accounts for research and development as an operating expense, these expenditures will adversely affect its results of operations in the future. Further, the performance of holographic LiDAR depends on software and hardware solutions involving the integration of automotive integrated circuit (IC), holographic image processing and algorithm software. Production of these complex components may require extremely high cost, which may reduce MC’s profit margins or increase MC’s losses.

MC may need to raise additional capital in the future in order to execute its business plan, which may not be available on terms acceptable to MC, or at all.

In the future, MC may require additional capital to respond to technological advancements, competitive dynamics or technologies, customer demands, business opportunities, challenges, acquisitions or unforeseen circumstances and it may determine to engage in equity or debt financings, or to enter into credit facilities for other reasons. In order to further business relationships with current or potential customers and partners, MC may issue equity or equity-linked securities to such current or potential customers or partners. MC may not be able to timely secure additional debt or equity financing on favorable terms, or at all. If MC raises additional funds through the issuance of equity or convertible debt or other equity-linked securities or if it issues equity or equity-linked securities to current or potential customers to further business relationships, its existing shareholders could experience significant dilution. Any debt financing obtained by MC in the future could involve restrictive covenants relating to its capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for MC to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. If MC is unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to MC, MC’s ability to continue to grow or support its business and to respond to business challenges could be significantly limited.

Market share of MC’s holographic LiDAR products will be materially adversely affected if such products are not adopted by the automotive original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) or their supplier for ADAS applications.

The OEMs and their suppliers have been developing applications in the autonomous driving and ADAS industries over the years. These OEMs manufacturers and suppliers perform extensive testing or identification processes before ordering a large number of LiDAR products, as such products would function as part of a larger system or platform and must comply with certain other specifications. In the future, MC may spend a lot of time and resources to have its products selected by automotive OEMs and their suppliers, which is called “design win.” In terms of autonomous driving and ADAS technology, a design win means that MC’s holographic LiDAR products have been selected for use in specific models. If MC’s product is not selected by the OEMs or their suppliers for one model, or if MC’s product is not successful on that model, it is unlikely to be deployed on other models of that OEM. If MC fails to win a large number of models from one or more automotive OEMs or their suppliers, MC’s business will be materially adversely affected.

The period of time from a “design win” to implementation is long, and MC is subject to the risks of cancellation or postponement of the contract or unsuccessful implementation

Prospective customers, including those in the automotive industry, generally must make significant commitments of resources to test and validate MC’s products and confirm that they can integrate with other technologies before including them in any particular system, product or model. The development cycles of MC’s products with new customers varies widely depending on the application, market, customer and the complexity of the product. In the automotive market, for example, this development cycle can be five to seven or more years. The development cycle in certain other markets can be months to one or two years. These development cycles result in MC investing its resources prior to realizing any revenue from the commercialization. Further, MC is subject to the risk that customers cancel or postpone implementation of its technology, as well as that it will not be able to integrate its technology successfully into a larger system with other sensing modalities. Further, MC’s revenue could be less than forecasted if the system, product or vehicle model that includes its LiDAR products is unsuccessful, including for reasons unrelated to its technology. Long development cycles and product cancellations or postponements may adversely affect MC’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

The complexity of MC’s products could result in unforeseen delays or expenses from undetected defects, errors or bugs in hardware or software which could reduce the market adoption of its new products, damage its reputation with current or prospective customers, result in product returns or expose MC to product liability and other claims and adversely affect its operating costs.

MC’s products are highly technical and very complex, and require high standards to manufacture. These products have in the past and will likely in the future experience defects, errors or bugs at various stages of development. MC may be unable to timely release new products, manufacture existing products, correct problems that have arisen or correct such problems to its customers’ satisfaction. Additionally, undetected errors, defects or security vulnerabilities, especially as new products are introduced or as new versions are released, could result in (i) serious injury to the end users of technology incorporating MC’s products, or those in the surrounding area, (ii) customers never being able to commercialize technology incorporating MC’s products, and (iii) litigation against MC, negative publicity and other consequences. These risks are particularly prevalent in the highly competitive autonomous driving and ADAS markets. Some errors or defects in MC’s products may only be discovered after they have been tested, commercialized and deployed by customers. If that is the case, MC may incur significant additional development costs and product recall, repair or replacement costs. Furthermore, MC could also experience higher levels of product returns in such cases, which could adversely affect its financial results. These problems may also result in claims against MC by its customers or others. MC’s reputation or brand may be damaged as a result of these problems, and customers may be reluctant to buy MC’s products, which could adversely affect MC’s ability to retain existing customers and attract new customers.

Failure in cost control may negatively impact the market adoption and profitability of MC’s products.

MC’s production output depends on MC’s ability to produce and/or procure certain key components and raw materials at an acceptable price. If MC fails to reduce or control costs to be incurred thereof, it might not be able to price its products competitively, which in turn may reduce the market adoption rate of MC’s products. In addition, failure in cost control may also result in material adverse effects on the profitability of MC. As such, MC’s results of operations and financial position will be adversely affected.

Continued pricing pressures may result in low profitability, or even losses to MC.

Automotive OEMs possess significant leverage over their suppliers, including MC, because the automotive component supply industry is highly competitive and has a high fixed cost base. Accordingly, MC expects to be subject to substantial continuing pressure from automotive OEMs and their suppliers to reduce the price of its products. It is possible that pricing pressures could intensify beyond MC’s expectations as automotive OEMs pursue restructuring, consolidation and cost-cutting initiatives. If MC is unable to generate sufficient production cost savings in the future to offset price reductions, its profitability would be adversely affected.

MC has a limited operating history, and it may not be able to sustain rapid growth, effectively manage growth or implement business strategies.

MC has a limited operating history. Although MC has experienced significant growth since launching its business, MC’s historical performance results and growth rate may not be indicative of its future performance. MC may not be able to achieve similar results or grow at the same rate as it has in the past. To keep pace with the development of the holographic technology service industry in the PRC, MC may need to adjust and upgrade its product and service offerings or modify its business model. These adjustments may not achieve expected results and may have a material and adverse impact on MC’s financial conditions and results of operations.

In addition, MC’s rapid growth and expansion have placed, and is expected to continue to place, a significant strain on MC’s management and resources. There is no assurance that the future growth of MC will be sustained at a similar rate or at all. MC believes that its revenue, expenses and operating results may vary from period to period in response to a variety of factors beyond its control, which primarily include general economic conditions, emergencies and changes in policies, laws and regulations that may affect MC’s business operations and its ability to monitor costs. In addition, MC’s ability to develop new sources of revenues, diversify monetization methods, attract and retain customers, continue developing innovative technologies, increase brand awareness, expand into new market segments, and adjust to the rapidly changing regulatory environment in the PRC, will also affect its future growth to a great extent. Therefore, MC’s historical results are not predictive of its future financial performance.

If MC fails to attract, retain and engage appropriately-skilled personnel, including senior management and technology professionals, its business may be harmed.

MC’s future success depends on the retention of highly skilled executives and employees. Competition for well-qualified and skilled employees is intense. MC’s future success also depends on the continuing ability to attract, develop, motivate and retain highly qualified and skilled employees, including, in particular, software engineers, LiDAR scientists and holographic technology professionals. MC’s continued ability to compete effectively depends on the ability to attract new employees and to retain and motivate existing employees. If any member of MC’s senior management team or other key employees leave, MC’s ability to successfully operate the business and execute the business strategy could be adversely affected. MC may also have to incur significant costs in identifying, hiring, training and retaining replacements of departing employees.

MC’s business depends substantially on the market recognition of its brand, and negative media coverage could adversely affect MC’s business.

MC believes that enhancing its brand and extending its customer base are cornerstones to sustaining its competitive advantages. Negative publicity about MC and its business, shareholders, affiliates, directors, officers, and other employees, as well as the industry in which MC operates, could be devastating and could materially and adversely affect the public perception of MC’s brand, and in turn, reduce the sales of its products and services. Negative publicity concerning could be related to a wide variety of matters, including:

In addition to traditional media, there has been an increasing use of social media platforms and similar devices in China, including instant messaging applications, social media websites and other forms of internet-based communications that provide individuals with access to a broad audience of users and other interested persons. The availability of information on instant messaging applications and social media platforms is virtually immediate as its impact without affording MC an opportunity for redress or correction. The opportunity for dissemination of information, including inaccurate information, is seemingly limitless and readily available. Information concerning MC, shareholders, directors, officers and employees may be posted on such platforms at any time. Risks associated with any such negative publicity or incorrect information cannot be eliminated entirely or mitigated, and may materially harm MC’s reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations.

Failure to maintain, protect, and enhance MC’s brand or to enforce its intellectual property rights may damage the results of its business and operations.

MC believes that the protection of trade secrets, patents, trademarks and domain names is key to its success. In particular, it must maintain, protect, and strengthen its intellectual property rights related to its holographic technical services. Its intellectual property is essential to expanding the population of individuals and corporate users as well as increasing their trust in its services. MC is committed to protecting their intellectual property rights in accordance with PRC laws and relevant agreements. MC usually enters into confidentiality agreements with its employees to restrict the access, disclosure, and use of its proprietary information. However, MC cannot guarantee that the contractual arrangements and other measures taken by it are sufficient to prevent the theft of MC’s proprietary information, to prevent competitors from independently developing similar technologies, or to prevent any attempt to imitate it. Preventing unauthorized use of MC’s intellectual property is difficult and costly, and the measures it takes may not be enough to prevent intellectual property theft. If MC sues for enforcing intellectual property, the litigation may result in huge costs and dispersion of MC’s management and financial resources. Failure to protect MC’s intellectual property rights may have a significant adverse impact on its business, financial position and operating performance.

MC may be vulnerable to intellectual property infringement charges filed by other companies.

Although MC developed and owns the core intellectual properties, the interpretation of PRC intellectual property laws and intellectual property standards are constantly evolving and may be uncertain. As a result, there might be litigations based on allegations of infringement, misappropriation or other violations of intellectual property rights. MC’s defense of intellectual property rights claims brought against it or its customers, suppliers and channel partners, with or without merit, could be time-consuming, expensive to litigate or settle, divert management resources and attention and force MC to acquire intellectual property rights and licenses, which may involve substantial royalty or other payments. An adverse determination also could invalidate MC’s intellectual property rights and adversely affect its ability to offer its products to its customers and may require that MC procure or develop substitute products that do not infringe, which could require significant effort and expense. A claim that its products infringe a third party’s intellectual property rights, even if untrue, could adversely affect MC’s relationships with its customers, may deter future customers from purchasing its products and could expose MC to costly litigation and settlement expenses. Any of these events could adversely affect MC’s business, operating results, financial condition and prospects.

MC may not be able to protect its source code from copying if there is an unauthorized disclosure.

Source code, the detailed program commands for MC’s middleware and software programs and solutions, is critical to MC’s business. Although MC licenses portions of its application and operating system source code to several licensees, MC takes significant measures to protect the secrecy of large portions of MC’s source code. If MC’s source code leaks, MC might lose future trade secret protection for that code. It may then become easier for third parties to compete with MC by copying functionality, which could adversely affect MC’s results of operations.

Third parties may register trademarks or domain names or purchase internet search engine keywords that are similar to MC’s trademarks, brand or websites, or misappropriate MC’s data and copy MC’s platform, all of which could cause confusion to MC’s users, divert online customers away from MC’s products and services or harm its reputation.

To divert potential customers from MC to such competitors’ or third parties’ websites or platforms, competitors and other third parties may purchase (i) trademarks that are similar to MC’s trademarks and (ii) keywords that are confusingly similar to MC’s brand or websites in internet search engine advertising programs and in the header and text of the resulting sponsored links or advertisements in order to divert potential customers from MC to such competitors’ or third parties’ websites or platforms. Preventing such unauthorized use is inherently difficult. If MC is unable to prevent such unauthorized use, competitors and other third parties may continue to drive potential customers away from MC’s platform to competing, irrelevant or potentially offensive platform, which could harm MC’s reputation and cause MC to lose revenue.

MC’s business is highly dependent on the proper functioning and improvement of its information technology systems and infrastructure. MC’s business and operating results may be harmed by service disruptions, or by MC’s failure to timely and effectively scale up and adjust MC’s existing technology and infrastructure.

MC’s business depends on the continuous and reliable operation of MC’s information technology (“IT”) systems. MC’s IT systems are vulnerable to damage or interruption as a result of fires, floods, earthquakes, power losses, telecommunications failures, undetected errors in software, computer viruses, hacking and other attempts to harm MC’s IT systems. Disruptions, failures, unscheduled service interruptions or a decrease in connection speeds could damage MC’s reputation and cause MC’s customers and end-users to migrate to its competitors’ platforms. If MC experiences frequent or constant service disruptions, whether caused by failures of MC’s own IT systems or those of third-party service providers, then MC’s user experience may be negatively affected, which in turn may have a material and adverse effect on MC’s reputation and business. MC may not be successful in minimizing the frequency or duration of service interruptions. As the number of MC’s end-users increases and more user data are generated on MC’s platform, it may be required to expand and adjust technology and infrastructure to continue to reliably store and process content.

MC’s operations depend on the performance of the Internet infrastructure and fixed telecommunications networks in China, which may experience unexpected system failure, interruption, inadequacy or security breaches.

Almost all access to the Internet in China is maintained through state-owned telecommunication operators under the administrative control and regulatory supervision of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, or the MIIT. Moreover, MC primarily relies on a limited number of telecommunication service providers to provide MC with data communications capacity through local telecommunications lines and Internet data centers to host MC’s servers. MC has limited access to alternative networks or services in the event of disruptions, failures or other problems with China’s Internet infrastructure or the fixed telecommunications networks provided by telecommunication service providers. Web traffic in China has experienced significant growth during the past few years. Effective bandwidth and server storage at Internet data centers in large cities such as Beijing and Shenzhen are scarce. With the expansion of MC’s business, it may be required to upgrade technology and infrastructure to keep up with the increasing traffic on its platform. MC cannot assure you that the Internet infrastructure and the fixed telecommunications networks in China will be able to support the demands associated with the continued growth in Internet usage. If MC cannot increase its capacity to deliver online services, then it may not be able to expand its customer base, and the adoption of MC’s services may be hindered, which could adversely impact its business and profitability.

In addition, MC has no control over the costs of the services provided by telecommunication service providers. If the prices MC pays for telecommunications and Internet services rise significantly, MC’s results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. Furthermore, if Internet access fees or other charges to Internet users increase, some users may be prevented from accessing the mobile Internet and thus cause the growth of mobile Internet users to decelerate. Such deceleration may adversely affect MC’s ability to continue to expand MC’s user base.

MC uses third-party services and technologies in connection with MC’s business, and any disruption to the provision of these services and technologies to MC could result in adverse publicity and a slowdown in the growth of MC’s users, which could materially and adversely affect MC’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

MC’s business partially depends on services provided by, and relationships with, various third parties. Some third-party software MC uses in its operations is currently publicly available and free of charge. If the owner of any such software decides to charge users or no longer makes the software publicly available, then MC may need to incur significant costs to obtain licensing, find replacement software or develop it on MC’s own. If MC is unable to obtain licensing, find or develop replacement software at a reasonable cost, or at all, MC’s business and operations may be adversely affected.

MC exercises no control over the third parties with whom MC has business arrangements. If such third parties increase their prices, fail to provide their services effectively, terminate their service or agreements or discontinue their relationships with MC, then MC could suffer service interruptions, reduced revenues or increased costs, any of which may have a material adverse effect on MC’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

MC’s insurance policies may not provide adequate coverage for all claims associated with its business operations.

MC maintains various insurance policies, such as group personal accident insurance and corporate employee benefits insurance. However, MC’s insurance coverage is still limited in terms of amount, scope and benefit. Insurance companies in China offer limited business insurance products. MC does not have any business liability or disruption insurance coverage for MC’s operations in China. Any business disruption may result in MC’s incurring substantial costs and the diversion of MC’s resources. Any uninsured business disruption, litigation or legal proceedings or natural disasters, such as epidemics, pandemics or earthquakes, or other events beyond MC’s control could result in substantial costs and the diversion of MC’s management’s attention. If MC were to be held liable for uninsured losses or amounts and claims for insured losses exceeding the limits of its insurance coverage, then MC’s business, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected as a result.

MC may be subject to claims, disputes or legal proceedings in the ordinary course of its business. If the outcome of these proceedings is unfavorable to MC, then MC’s business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

MC may be subject to claims, disputes, or legal proceedings in the ordinary course of its business from time to time, which could adversely affect MC’s business, results of operations and financial condition. MC may receive formal and informal inquiries from governmental authorities and regulators regarding MC’s compliance with applicable laws and regulations, many of which are evolving and subject to interpretation. Claims arising out of actual or alleged violations of laws could be asserted against MC by MC’s employees, customers, media partners, competitors, governmental entities in civil or criminal investigations and proceedings or other third parties. These claims could be asserted under a variety of laws, including but not limited to advertising laws, Internet information services laws, intellectual property laws, unfair competition laws, data protection and privacy laws, labor and employment laws, securities laws, real estate laws, tort laws, contract laws, property laws and employee benefit laws. MC may also be subject to lawsuits due to actions by MC’s media partners or advertising customers. In addition, some of MC’s service agreements contain certain indemnity provisions requiring MC to indemnify its customers for certain non-compliance, intellectual property infringement, personal injury and death claims. MC’s indemnity obligations may adversely affect MC’s cash flow, operating results and financial conditions.

There can be no guarantee that MC will be successful in defending itself in legal and arbitration actions or in asserting MC’s rights under various laws. If the outcome of these proceedings is unfavorable to MC, then MC’s business, results of operations and financial conditions could be adversely affected. Even if MC is successful in its attempt to defend itself in legal and arbitration actions or to assert MC’s rights under various laws, enforcing MC’s rights against the various parties involved may be expensive, time-consuming and ultimately futile. These actions may expose MC to negative publicity, substantial monetary damages and legal defense costs, injunctive relief, and criminal and civil fines and penalties, including but not limited to suspension or revocation of MC’s licenses to conduct business.

MC may need additional capital to support or expand its business, and MC may be unable to obtain such capital in a timely manner or on acceptable terms, if at all.

Although MC believes that its anticipated cash flows from operating activities, together with cash on hand, will be sufficient to meet MC’s anticipated working capital requirements and capital expenditures in the ordinary course of business for the next twelve months, MC cannot assure you this will be the case. MC may also need additional cash resources in the future if it pursues opportunities for investments, acquisitions or similar actions. If MC determines that its cash requirements exceed the amount of cash and cash equivalents MC has on hand at the time, MC may seek to issue equity or debt securities or obtain credit facilities. The issuance and sale of additional equity would result in further dilution to MC’s shareholding. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased fixed obligations and could result in operational and financial covenants that would restrict MC’s operations. MC has historically used bank borrowings to partially finance operations. MC cannot assure you that additional financing will be available in amounts sufficient or on terms acceptable to MC, if at all.

MC’s business may be materially and adversely affected by the effects of natural disasters, health epidemics or similar situation. In particular, the COVID-19 pandemic has already and may continue to cause negative impacts to the MC’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

MC’s business could be materially and adversely affected by natural disasters, such as earthquakes, floods, blizzards, typhoons or fire accidents, epidemics such as avian flu, swine flu, Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (or SARS), Ebola, Zika, COVID-19, or other events, such as acts of war, terrorism, environmental accidents, power shortages or communication interruptions.

Since the beginning of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused temporary closures of shops and facilities in China and around the world. MC’s business growth in 2020 was negatively affected as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and MC incurred additional implementation costs and general and administrative expenses, which resulted in a decrease in MC’s operating income and net income in 2020. As COVID-19 has negatively affected the broader Chinese economy and the global economy, China may continue to experience lower domestic consumption, higher unemployment, severe disruptions to exporting of goods to other countries and greater economic uncertainty, all of which may materially and adversely affect MC’s business and results of operations. Potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic include, but not limited to the following aspects:

Due to the uncertain nature of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is impossible to reasonably estimate the financial impact brought by the outbreak and countermeasures of COVID-19 pandemic for the time being. While most of the restrictions on movement within China have been relaxed as of the date of this prospectus/proxy statement, there is great uncertainty as to the future progress of the pandemic. Relaxation of restrictions on economic and social life may lead to new cases, which may lead to re-imposition of restrictions. Consequently, the COVID-19 pandemic may materially adversely affect MC’s business, financial condition and results of operations in 2021. The extent to which this pandemic impacts MC’s results of operations will depend on future developments which are highly uncertain and unpredictable, including new outbreaks of COVID-19, the severity of the virus infection, the effectiveness and availability of vaccines, and future actions MC or the authorities may take in response to these developments.

MC may be materially and adversely affected by the complexity, uncertainties and changes in the PRC laws and regulations governing Internet-related industries and companies.

The PRC government extensively regulates the Internet industry, including foreign ownership of, and the licensing and permit requirements pertaining to, companies in the Internet industry. These Internet-related laws and regulations are relatively new and evolving, and their interpretation and enforcement involve significant uncertainty. As a result, in certain circumstances it may be difficult to determine what actions or omissions may be deemed to be in violations of applicable laws and regulations. Issues, risks and uncertainties relating to PRC regulations of the Internet business include, but are not limited to, the following:

The interpretation and application of existing PRC laws, regulations and policies and possible new laws, regulations or policies relating to the Internet industry have created substantial uncertainties regarding the legality of existing and future foreign investments in, and the businesses and activities of, Internet businesses in China, including MC’s business. There are also risks that MC may be found to violate the existing or future laws and regulations given the uncertainty and complexity of China’s regulation of Internet business.

MC’s business may be exposed to Internet data, and MC is required to comply with PRC laws and regulations relating to cyber security. These laws and regulations could create unexpected costs, subject MC to enforcement actions for compliance failures, or restrict portions of MC’s business or cause MC to change its data practices or business model.

MC’s business exposed to a large quantity of data. MC faces risks inherent in handling and protecting large volume of data. including:

Governments around the world, including the PRC government, have enacted or are considering legislation related to online businesses. There may be an increase in legislation and regulation related to the collection and use of anonymous internet user data and unique device identifiers, such as IP address or mobile unique device identifiers, and other data protection and privacy regulation. The PRC regulatory and enforcement regime with regard to data security and data protection is evolving. All these laws and regulations may result in additional expenses to MC and any non-compliance may subject MC to negative publicity which could harm its reputation and negatively affect the trading price of MC’s ordinary shares. There are also uncertainties with respect to how these laws will be implemented in practice. PRC regulators have been increasingly focused on regulation in the areas of data security and data protection. MC expects that these areas will receive greater attention and focus from regulators, as well as attract continued or greater public scrutiny and attention going forward, which could increase MC’s compliance costs and subject it to heightened risks and challenges associated with data security and protection. If MC is unable to manage these risks, MC could become subject to penalties, fines, suspension of business and revocation of required licenses, and MC’s reputation and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, regulatory authorities around the world have recently adopted or are considering a number of legislative and regulatory proposals concerning data protection. These legislative and regulatory proposals, if adopted, and the uncertain interpretations and application thereof could, in addition to the possibility of fines, result in an order requiring that MC change its data practices, which could have an adverse effect on MC’s business and results of operations.

MC may become subject to a variety of laws and regulations in the PRC regarding privacy, data security, cybersecurity, and data protection.

MC may become subject to a variety of laws and regulations in the PRC regarding privacy, data security, cybersecurity, and data protection. These laws and regulations are continuously evolving and developing. The scope and interpretation of the laws that are or may be applicable to MC are often uncertain and may be conflicting, particularly with respect to foreign laws. In particular, there are numerous laws and regulations regarding privacy and the collection, sharing, use, processing, disclosure, and protection of personal information and other user data. Such laws and regulations often vary in scope, may be subject to differing interpretations, and may be inconsistent among different jurisdictions.

MC expects to obtain information about various aspects of its customers’ and end users’ operations as well as regarding its employees and third parties. MC also maintains information about various aspects of its customers’ operations as well as regarding its employees. The integrity and protection of MC’s customers, employees and company data is critical to MC’s business. MC’s customers and employees expect that MC will adequately protect their personal information. MC is required by applicable laws to keep strictly confidential the personal information that it collects, and to take adequate security measures to safeguard such information.

The PRC Criminal Law, as amended by its Amendment 7 (effective on February 28, 2009) and Amendment 9 (effective on November 1, 2015), prohibits institutions, companies and their employees from selling or otherwise illegally disclosing a citizen’s personal information obtained during the course of performing duties or providing services or obtaining such information through theft or other illegal ways. On November 7, 2016, the Standing Committee of the PRC National People’s Congress issued the Cyber Security Law of the PRC, or Cyber Security Law, which became effective on June 1, 2017.

Pursuant to the Cyber Security Law, network operators must not, without users’ consent, collect their personal information, and may only collect users’ personal information necessary to provide their services. Providers are also obliged to provide security maintenance for their products and services and shall comply with provisions regarding the protection of personal information as stipulated under the relevant laws and regulations.

The Civil Code of the PRC (issued by the PRC National People’s Congress on May 28, 2020 and effective from January 1,2021) provides main legal basis for privacy and personal information infringement claims under the Chinese civil laws. PRC regulators, including the Cyberspace Administration of China, MIIT, and the Ministry of Public Security have been increasingly focused on regulation in the areas of data security and data protection. The PRC regulatory requirements regarding cybersecurity are constantly evolving. For instance, various regulatory bodies in China, including the Cyberspace Administration of China, the Ministry of Public Security and the SAMR, have enforced data privacy and protection laws and regulations with varying and evolving standards and interpretations. In April 2020, the Chinese government promulgated Cybersecurity Review Measures, which came into effect on June 1, 2020. According to the Cybersecurity Review Measures, operators of critical information infrastructure must pass a cybersecurity review when purchasing network products and services which do or may affect national security.

In November 2016, the Standing Committee of China’s National People’s Congress passed China’s first Cybersecurity Law (“CSL”), which became effective in June 2017. The CSL is the first PRC law that systematically lays out the regulatory requirements on cybersecurity and data protection, subjecting many previously under-regulated or unregulated activities in cyberspace to government scrutiny. The legal consequences of violation of the CSL include penalties of warning, confiscation of illegal income, suspension of related business, winding up for rectification, shutting down the websites, and revocation of business license or relevant permits. In April 2020, the Cyberspace Administration of China and certain other PRC regulatory authorities promulgated the Cybersecurity Review Measures, which became effective in June 2020. Pursuant to the Cybersecurity Review Measures, operators of critical information infrastructure must pass a cybersecurity review when purchasing network products and services which do or may affect national security. On July 10, 2021, the Cyberspace Administration of China issued a revised draft of the Measures for Cybersecurity Review for public comments (“Draft Measures”), which required that, in addition to “operator of critical information infrastructure,” any “data processor” carrying out data processing activities that affect or may affect national security should also be subject to cybersecurity review, and further elaborated the factors to be considered when assessing the national security risks of the relevant activities, including, among others, (i) the risk of core data, important data or a large amount of personal information being stolen, leaked, destroyed, and illegally used or exited the country; and (ii) the risk of critical information infrastructure, core data, important data or a large amount of personal information being affected, controlled, or maliciously used by foreign governments after listing abroad. The Cyberspace Administration of China has said that under the proposed rules companies holding data on more than 1,000,000 users must now apply for cybersecurity approval when seeking listings in other nations because of the risk that such data and personal information could be “affected, controlled, and maliciously exploited by foreign governments.” The cybersecurity review will also investigate the potential national security risks from overseas IPOs. MC does not know what regulations will be adopted or how such regulations will affect MC and its listing on Nasdaq. In the event that the Cyberspace Administration of China determines that MC is subject to these regulations, MC may be required to delist from Nasdaq and MC may be subject to fines and penalties.

On June 10, 2021, the Standing Committee of the NPC promulgated the PRC Data Security Law, which will take effect on September 1, 2021. The Data Security Law also sets forth the data security protection obligations for entities and individuals handling personal data, including that no entity or individual may acquire such data by stealing or other illegal means, and the collection and use of such data should not exceed the necessary limits the costs of compliance with, and other burdens imposed by, CSL and any other cybersecurity and related laws may limit the use and adoption of MC’s products and services and could have an adverse impact on MC’s business.

Further, if the enacted version of the Measures for Cybersecurity Review mandates clearance of cybersecurity review and other specific actions to be completed by companies like MC, MC faces uncertainties as to whether such clearance can be timely obtained, or at all.

If the new PRC Data Security Law is enacted in September, MC will not be subject to the cybersecurity review by the CAC for this offering, given that: (i) MC’s products and services are offered not directly to individual users but through MC’s business customers; (ii) MC does not possess a large amount of personal information in MC’s business operations; and (iii) data processed in MC’s business does not have a bearing on national security and thus may not be classified as core or important data by the authorities. However, there remains uncertainty as to how the Draft Measures will be interpreted or implemented and whether the PRC regulatory agencies, including the CAC, may adopt new laws, regulations, rules, or detailed implementation and interpretation related to the Draft Measures. If any such new laws, regulations, rules, or implementation and interpretation comes into effect, MC will take all reasonable measures and actions to comply and to minimize the adverse effect of such laws on MC.

On August 20, 2021, the Standing Committee of the NPC approved the Personal Information Protection Law (“PIPL”), which will become effective on November 1, 2021. The PIPL regulates collection of personal identifiable information and seeks to address the issue of algorithmic discrimination. Companies in violation of the PIPL may be subject to warnings and admonishments, forced corrections, confiscation of corresponding income, suspension of related services, and fines. MC offers its holographic digital twin technology resource library services mainly to corporate clients and has limited interactions with individual end-users, which means MC’s potential access or exposure to customers’ personal identifiable information is limited. However, in the event MC inadvertently accesses or becomes exposed to customers’ personal identifiable information, through its holographic digital twin technology resource library services which access or store customer’ personal identifiable information, then MC may face heightened exposure to the PIPL.

MC cannot assure you that PRC regulatory agencies, including the CAC, would take the same view as MC does, and there is no assurance that MC can fully or timely comply with such laws. In the event that MC is subject to any mandatory cybersecurity review and other specific actions required by the CAC, MC faces uncertainty as to whether any clearance or other required actions can be timely completed, or at all. Given such uncertainty, MC may be further required to suspend MC’s relevant business, shut down MC’s website, or face other penalties, which could materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Substantially all of MC’s revenues are generally sourced from Mainland China through the operating companies in China. Accordingly, MC’s results of operations, financial condition and prospects are influenced by economic, political and legal developments in China. Economic reforms begun in the late 1970s have resulted in significant economic growth. However, any economic reform policies or measures in China may from time to time be modified or revised. China’s economy differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including with respect to the amount of government involvement, level of development, growth rate, control of foreign exchange and allocation of resources. Although the Chinese government has implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, the reduction of state ownership of productive assets and the establishment of improved corporate governance in business enterprises, a substantial portion of productive assets in China is still owned by the government. In addition, the Chinese government continues to play a significant role in regulating industry development by imposing industrial policies. The Chinese government also exercises significant control over China’s economic growth through allocating resources, controlling payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy, and providing preferential treatment to particular industries or companies.

While the PRC economy has experienced significant growth in the past 30 years, growth has been uneven across different regions and among different economic sectors. The Chinese government has implemented measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of the resources. Some of these measures may benefit the overall Chinese economy but may have a negative effect on MC. For example, MC’s financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected by government control over capital investments or changes in tax regulations.

Although the PRC economy has grown significantly in the past decade, that growth may not continue, as evidenced by the slowing of the growth of the PRC economy since 2012. Any adverse changes in economic conditions in China, in the policies of the PRC government or in the laws and regulations in China could have a material adverse effect on a specific industry including the one MC’s operating company is in or the overall economic growth of China. Such developments could adversely affect MC’s business and operating results, lead to reduction in demand for MC’s services and adversely affect MC’s competitive position.

A severe or prolonged downturn in the PRC or global economy and political tensions between the United States and China could materially and adversely affect MC’s business and MC’s financial condition.

The global macroeconomic environment is facing challenges, including the end of quantitative easing by the U.S. Federal Reserve, the economic slowdown in the Eurozone since 2014 and uncertainties over the impact of Brexit. The Chinese economy has shown slower growth compared to the previous decade since 2012 and the trend may continue. There is considerable uncertainty over the long-term effects of the expansionary monetary and fiscal policies adopted by the central banks and financial authorities of some of the world’s leading economies, including the United States and China. There have been concerns over unrest and terrorist threats in the Middle East, Europe and Africa, which have resulted in market volatility.

If MC plans to expand its business internationally and does business cross-border in the future, any unfavorable government policies on international trade, such as capital controls or tariffs, may affect the demand for MC’s products and services, impact MC’s competitive position, or prevent MC from being able to conduct business in certain countries. If any new tariffs, legislation, or regulations are implemented, or if existing trade agreements are renegotiated, such changes could adversely affect MC’s business, financial condition, and results of operations. In particular, there have been heightened tensions in international economic relations between the United States and China. The U.S. government has recently imposed, and has recently proposed to impose additional, new, or higher tariffs on certain products imported from China to penalize China for what the U.S. government characterizes as unfair trade practices. China has responded by imposing, and proposing to impose additional, new, or higher tariffs on certain products imported from the United States. Following mutual retaliatory actions for months, on January 15, 2020, the United States and China entered into the Economic and Trade Agreement Between the United States of America and the People’s Republic of China as a phase one trade deal, effective on February 14, 2020. Although the direct impact of the current international trade tension, and any escalation of such tension, on the holographic technology industry in China is uncertain, the negative impact on general, economic, political and social conditions may adversely impact MC’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Furthermore, as part of a continued regulatory focus in the United States on access to audit and other information currently protected by national law, in particular China’s, on December 18, 2020, the former U.S. President Donald J. Trump signed the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act into law, which requires the SEC to propose rules within 90 days after its enactment to prohibit securities of any registrant from being listed on any of the U.S. securities exchanges or traded “over the counter” if the auditor of the registrant’s financial statements is not subject to the PCAOB inspection for three consecutive years after the law becomes effective. The Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act and any proposed SEC rules may have a material and adverse impact on the stock performance of China-based companies listed in the United States. In addition, the recent market panics over the global outbreak of COVID-19 materially and negatively affected the global financial markets in March 2020, which may cause potential slowdown of the global economy. Economic conditions in China are sensitive to global economic conditions, as well as changes in domestic economic and political policies and the expected or perceived overall economic growth rate in China. Any severe or prolonged slowdown in the global or Chinese economy and the political tensions between the United States and China may materially and adversely affect MC’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

On April 21, 2020, SEC Chairman Jay Clayton and PCAOB Chairman William D. Duhnke III, along with other senior SEC staff, released a joint statement highlighting the risks associated with investing in companies based in or have substantial operations in emerging markets including China. The joint statement emphasized the risks associated with lack of access for the PCAOB to inspect auditors and audit work papers in China and higher risks of fraud in emerging markets.

On May 18, 2020, Nasdaq filed three proposals with the SEC to (i) apply minimum offering size requirement for companies primarily operating in “Restrictive Market”, (ii) adopt a new requirement relating to the qualification of management or board of director for Restrictive Market companies, and (iii) apply additional and more stringent criteria to an applicant or listed company based on the qualifications of the company’s auditors.

On May 20, 2020, the U.S. Senate passed the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act requiring a foreign company to certify it is not owned or controlled by a foreign government if the PCAOB is unable to audit specified reports because the company uses a foreign auditor not subject to the PCAOB inspection. If the PCAOB is unable to inspect the company’s auditors for three consecutive years, the issuer’s securities are prohibited to trade on a national exchange. On December 2, 2020, the U.S. House of Representatives approved the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act. On December 18, 2020, the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act was signed into law. As of March 24, 2021, the SEC adopted interim final amendments to implement congressionally mandated submission and disclosure requirements of the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act.

The lack of access to the PCAOB inspection in China prevents the PCAOB from fully evaluating audits and quality control procedures of the auditors based in China. As a result, the investors may be deprived of the benefits of such PCAOB inspections. The inability of the PCAOB to conduct inspections of auditors in China makes it more difficult to evaluate the effectiveness of these accounting firms’ audit procedures or quality control procedures as compared to auditors outside of China that are subject to the PCAOB inspections.

MC’s auditor, the independent registered public accounting firm that issues the audit report included elsewhere in this prospectus/proxy statement, as an auditor of companies that are traded publicly in the United States and a firm registered with the PCAOB, is subject to laws in the United States pursuant to which the PCAOB conducts regular inspections to assess MC’s auditor’s compliance with the applicable professional standards. MC’s auditor is headquartered in Manhattan, New York, and has been inspected by the PCAOB on a regular basis with the last inspection in June 2018. However, in the event the PRC authorities would further strengthen regulations over auditing work of Chinese companies listed on the U.S. stock exchanges, which would prohibit MC’s current auditor to perform work in China, then MC would need to change its auditor and the audit workpapers prepared by MC’s new auditor may not be inspected by the PCAOB without the approval of the PRC authorities, in which case the PCAOB may not be able to fully evaluate the audit or the auditors’ quality control procedures. Furthermore, due to the recent developments in connection with the implementation of the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (“HFCA Act”), MC cannot assure you whether the SEC, Nasdaq or other regulatory authorities would apply additional and more stringent criteria to MC after considering the effectiveness of MC’s auditor’s audit procedures and quality control procedures, adequacy of personnel and training, or sufficiency of resources, geographic reach or experience as it relates to the audit of MC’s financial statements. The requirement in the HFCA Act that the PCAOB be permitted to inspect the issuer’s public accounting firm within three years, may result in the delisting of MC in the future if the PCAOB is unable to inspect MC’s accounting firm at such future time.

Uncertainties in the promulgation, interpretation and enforcement of PRC laws and regulations could limit the legal protections available to you and MC.

The PRC legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes. Unlike the common law system, prior court decisions under the civil law system may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value. Since these laws and regulations are relatively new and the PRC legal system continues to rapidly evolve, the promulgation of new rules and explanations and interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules are not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involves uncertainties.

In 1979, the PRC government began to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws and regulations governing economic matters in general. The overall effect of legislation over the past three decades has significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investments in China. However, China has not developed a fully integrated legal system, and recently enacted laws and regulations may not sufficiently cover all aspects of economic activities in China. In particular, the interpretation and enforcement of these laws and regulations involve uncertainties. Specifically, rules and regulations in China can change quickly with little advance notice.

From time to time, MC may have to resort to administrative and court proceedings to enforce MC’s legal rights. However, since PRC administrative and court authorities have significant discretion in interpreting and implementing statutory and contractual terms, it may be more difficult to evaluate the outcome of administrative and court proceedings and the level of legal protection MC enjoys than in more developed legal systems. Furthermore, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules (some of which are not published in a timely manner or at all) that may have retroactive effect. As a result, MC may not be aware of its violation of these policies and rules until sometime after the violation. Such uncertainties, including uncertainty over the scope and effect of MC’s contractual, property (including intellectual property) and procedural rights, could materially and adversely affect MC’s business and impede MC’s ability to continue its operations.

Under the PRC enterprise income tax law, MC may be classified as a “PRC resident enterprise”, which could result in unfavorable tax consequences to MC and its shareholders and have a material adverse effect on MC’s results of operations and the value of your investment.

Under the PRC enterprise income tax law that became effective on January 1, 2008, an enterprise established outside the PRC with “de facto management bodies” within the PRC is considered a “resident enterprise” for PRC enterprise income tax purposes and is generally subject to a uniform 25% enterprise income tax rate on its worldwide income. On April 22, 2009, the State Administration of Taxation, or the SAT, issued the Notice Regarding the Determination of Chinese-Controlled Overseas Incorporated Enterprises as PRC Tax Resident Enterprise on the Basis of De Facto Management Bodies, or SAT Circular 82, which provides certain specific criteria for determining whether the “de facto management body” of a PRC-controlled enterprise that is incorporated offshore is located in China. Further to SAT Circular 82, on August 3, 2011, the SAT issued the Administrative Measures of Enterprise Income Tax of Chinese-Controlled Offshore Incorporated Resident Enterprises (Trial), or SAT Bulletin 45, which became effective on September 1, 2011, to provide more guidance on the implementation of SAT Circular 82.

According to SAT Circular 82, an offshore incorporated enterprise controlled by a PRC enterprise or a PRC enterprise group will be considered a PRC tax resident enterprise by virtue of having its “de facto management body” in China and will be subject to PRC enterprise income tax on its worldwide income only if all of the following conditions are met: (a) the senior management and core management departments in charge of its daily operations function have their presence mainly in the PRC; (b) its financial and human resources decisions are subject to determination or approval by persons or bodies in the PRC; (c) its major assets, accounting books, company seals, and minutes and files of its board and shareholders’ meetings are located or kept in the PRC; and (d) not less than half of the enterprise’s directors or senior management with voting rights habitually reside in the PRC. SAT Bulletin 45 further clarifies the resident status determination, post-determination administration as well as competent tax authorities.

Although SAT Circular 82 and SAT Bulletin 45 only apply to offshore incorporated enterprises controlled by PRC enterprises or PRC enterprise group instead of those controlled by PRC individuals or foreigners, the determination criteria set forth therein may reflect SAT’s general position on how the term “de facto management body” could be applied in determining the tax resident status of offshore enterprises, regardless of whether they are controlled by PRC enterprises, individuals or foreigners.

MC believes that none of its entities outside of China is a PRC resident enterprise for PRC tax purposes even if the standards for “de facto management body” prescribed in the SAT Circular 82 are applicable to MC. However, the tax resident status of an enterprise is subject to determination by the PRC tax authorities and uncertainties remain with respect to the interpretation of the term “de facto management body.” If the PRC tax authorities determine that the company or any of MC’s subsidiaries outside of China is a PRC resident enterprise for enterprise income tax purposes, MC may be subject to PRC enterprise income on MC’s worldwide income at the rate of 25%, which could materially reduce MC’s net income. In addition, MC will also be subject to PRC enterprise income tax reporting obligations.

Although dividends paid by one PRC tax resident to another PRC tax resident should qualify as “tax-exempt income” under the enterprise income tax law, MC cannot assure you that dividends by MC’s PRC subsidiaries to MC’s Cayman Islands holding company will not be subject to a 10% withholding tax, as the PRC foreign exchange control authorities, which enforce the withholding tax on dividends, and the PRC tax authorities have not yet issued guidance with respect to the processing of outbound remittances to entities that are treated as resident enterprises for PRC enterprise income tax purposes.

Non-PRC resident holders of MC’s ordinary shares may also be subject to PRC withholding tax on dividends paid by MC and PRC tax on gains realized on the sale or other disposition of ordinary shares, if such income is sourced from within the PRC. The tax would be imposed at the rate of 10% in the case of non-PRC resident enterprise holders and 20% in the case of non-PRC resident individual holders. In the case of dividends, MC would be required to withhold the tax at source. Any PRC tax liability may be reduced under applicable tax treaties or similar arrangements. Although MC’s holding company is incorporated in the Cayman Islands, it remains unclear whether dividends received and gains realized by MC’s non-PRC resident holders of MC’s ordinary shares will be regarded as income from sources within the PRC if MC is classified as a PRC resident enterprise. Any such tax will reduce the returns on your investment in MC’s ordinary shares.

MC cannot assure you that the PRC tax authorities will not, at their discretion, adjust any capital gains and impose tax return filing and withholding or tax payment obligations with respect to any internal restructuring, and MC’s PRC subsidiaries may be requested to assist in the filing. Any PRC tax imposed on a transfer of MC’s shares not through a public stock exchange, or any adjustment of such gains would cause MC to incur additional costs and may have a negative impact on the value of your investment in the company.

MC may not be able to obtain certain benefits under relevant tax treaties on dividends paid by its PRC subsidiaries to MC through its Hong Kong subsidiaries.

MC is an exempted company with limited liability, used as holding company, incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and as such relies on dividends and other distributions on equity from MC’s PRC subsidiaries, as paid to MC through MC’s Hong Kong subsidiaries, to satisfy part of MC’s liquidity requirements. Pursuant to the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, a withholding tax rate of 10% currently applies to dividends paid by a PRC “resident enterprise” to a foreign enterprise investor, unless any such foreign investor’s jurisdiction of incorporation has a tax treaty with China that provides for preferential tax treatment. Pursuant to the Arrangement between the Mainland China and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and Tax Evasion on Income, or the Double Tax Avoidance Arrangement, and Circular 81 issued by the State Administration of Taxation, such withholding tax rate may be lowered to 5% if the PRC enterprise is at least 25% held by a Hong Kong enterprise throughout the 12 months prior to distribution of the dividends and is determined by the relevant PRC tax authority to have satisfied other requirements. Furthermore, under the Administrative Measures for Non-Resident Enterprises to Enjoy Treatments under Tax Treaties, which became effective in August 2015, the non-resident enterprises shall determine whether they are qualified for preferential tax treatment under the tax treaties and file relevant reports and materials with the tax authorities. There are also other conditions for benefiting from the reduced withholding tax rate according to other relevant tax rules and regulations. MC cannot assure you that its determination regarding MC’s Hong Kong subsidiaries’ qualification to benefit from the preferential tax treatment will not be challenged by the relevant PRC tax authority or that MC will be able to complete the necessary filings with the relevant PRC tax authority and benefit from the preferential withholding tax rate of 5% under the Double Taxation Avoidance Arrangement with respect to dividends to be paid by MC’s PRC subsidiaries to its Hong Kong subsidiaries.

If New Golden Path is classified as a PRC resident enterprise for PRC enterprise income tax purposes, such classification could result in unfavorable tax consequences to New Golden Path and its non-PRC shareholders.

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

New Golden Path believes it is not a PRC resident enterprise for PRC tax purposes. However, the tax resident status of an enterprise is subject to determination by the PRC tax authorities and uncertainties remain with respect to the interpretation of the term “de facto management body.” If the PRC tax authorities determine that New Golden Path is a PRC resident enterprise for enterprise income tax purposes, New Golden Path would be subject to PRC enterprise income tax on New Golden Path’s worldwide income at the rate of 25%. Furthermore, New Golden Path would be required to withhold a 10% tax from dividends New Golden Path pays to its shareholders that are non-resident enterprises. In addition, non-resident enterprise shareholders may be subject to PRC tax on gains realized on the sale or other disposition of ordinary shares, if such income is treated as sourced from within the PRC. Furthermore, if New Golden Path is deemed a PRC resident enterprise, dividends paid to New Golden Path’s non-PRC individual shareholders and any gain realized on the transfer of the ordinary shares by such shareholders may be subject to PRC tax at a rate of 20% (which, in the case of dividends, may be withheld at source by New Golden Path). These rates may be reduced by an applicable tax treaty, but it is unclear whether non-PRC shareholders of New Golden Path would be able to claim the benefits of any tax treaties between their country of tax residence and the PRC in the event that New Golden Path is treated as a PRC resident enterprise. Any such tax may reduce the returns on your investment in the ordinary shares.

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

MC faces uncertainties regarding the reporting on and consequences of previous private equity financing transactions involving the transfer and exchange of shares in MC by non-resident investors. In February 2015, the SAT issued the Bulletin on Issues of Enterprise Income Tax on Indirect Transfers of Assets by Non-PRC Resident Enterprises, or SAT Bulletin 7, as amended in 2017. Pursuant to this bulletin, an “indirect transfer” of assets, including equity interests in a PRC resident enterprise, by non-PRC resident enterprises may be re-characterized and treated as a direct transfer of PRC taxable assets, if such arrangement does not have a reasonable commercial purpose and was established for the purpose of avoiding payment of PRC enterprise income tax. As a result, gains derived from such indirect transfer may be subject to PRC enterprise income tax. According to SAT Bulletin 7, “PRC taxable assets” include assets attributed to an establishment in China, immovable properties located in China, and equity investments in PRC resident enterprises, in respect of which gains from their transfer by a direct holder, being a non-PRC resident enterprise, would be subject to PRC enterprise income taxes. When determining whether there is a “reasonable commercial purpose” of the transaction arrangement, features to be taken into consideration include: whether the main value of the equity interest of the relevant offshore enterprise derives from PRC taxable assets; whether the assets of the relevant offshore enterprise mainly consist of direct or indirect investment in China or if its income mainly derives from China; whether the offshore enterprise and its subsidiaries directly or indirectly holding PRC taxable assets have real commercial nature which is evidenced by their actual function and risk exposure; the duration of existence of the business model and organizational structure; the replicability of the transaction by direct transfer of PRC taxable assets; and the tax situation of such indirect transfer and applicable tax treaties or similar arrangements. In respect of an indirect offshore transfer of assets of a PRC establishment, the resulting gain is to be included with the enterprise income tax filing of the PRC establishment or place of business being transferred, and would consequently be subject to PRC enterprise income tax at a rate of 25%. Where the underlying transfer relates to the immovable properties located in China or to equity investments in a PRC resident enterprise, which is not related to a PRC establishment or place of business of a non-resident enterprise, a PRC enterprise income tax of 10% would apply, subject to available preferential tax treatment under applicable tax treaties or similar arrangements, and the party who is obligated to make the transfer payments has the withholding obligation. SAT Bulletin 7 does not apply to transactions of sale of shares by investors through a public stock exchange where such shares were acquired from a transaction through a public stock exchange.

There is uncertainty as to the application of SAT Bulletin 7. MC faces uncertainties as to the reporting and other implications of certain past and future transactions where PRC taxable assets are involved, such as offshore restructuring, sale of the shares in MC’s offshore subsidiaries or investments. MC may be subject to filing obligations or taxed if MC is transferor in such transactions, and may be subject to withholding obligations if MC is transferee in such transactions under SAT Bulletin 7. For transfer of shares in MC by investors that are non-PRC resident enterprises, MC’s PRC subsidiaries may be requested to assist in the filing under SAT Bulletin 7. As a result, MC may be required to expend valuable resources to comply with SAT Bulletin 7 or to request the relevant transferors from whom MC purchases taxable assets to comply with these circulars, or to establish that MC should not be taxed under these circulars, which may have a material adverse effect on MC’s financial condition and results of operations.

Certain judgments obtained against MC by its shareholders may not be enforceable.

MC is a Cayman Islands exempted company and substantially all of MC’s current operations are conducted in China. In addition, most of MC’s current directors and officers are nationals and residents of countries other than the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for you to bring an action against MC or against these individuals in the United States in the event that you believe that your rights have been infringed under the U.S. federal securities laws or otherwise. Even if you are successful in bringing an action of this kind, the laws of the Cayman Islands and of China may render you unable to enforce a judgment against MC’s assets or the assets of MC’s directors and officers.

If the chops of MC’s PRC subsidiaries are not kept safely, are stolen or are used by unauthorized persons or for unauthorized purposes, the corporate governance of these entities could be severely and adversely compromised.

In China, a company chop or seal serves as the legal representation of the company towards third parties even when unaccompanied by a signature. Each legally registered company in China is required to maintain a company chop, which must be registered with the local Public Security Bureau. In addition to this mandatory company chop, companies may have several other chops which can be used for specific purposes. The chops of MC’s PRC subsidiaries are generally held securely by personnel designated or approved by MC in accordance with its internal control procedures. To the extent those chops are not kept safely, are stolen or are used by unauthorized persons or for unauthorized purposes, the corporate governance of these entities could be severely and adversely compromised and those corporate entities may be bound to abide by the terms of any documents so chopped, even if they were chopped by an individual who lacked the requisite power and authority to do so. In addition, if the chops are misused by unauthorized persons, MC could experience disruption to MC’s normal business operations. MC may have to take corporate or legal action, which could involve significant time and resources to resolve while distracting management from MC’s operations.

Implementation of labor laws and regulations in China may adversely affect MC’s business and results of operations.

Pursuant to the labor contract law that took effect in January 2008, its implementation rules that took effect in September 2008 and its amendment that took effect in July 2013, employers are subject to stricter requirements in terms of signing labor contracts, minimum wages, paying remuneration, determining the term of employees’ probation and unilaterally terminating labor contracts. Due to lack of detailed interpretative rules and uniform implementation practices and broad discretion of the local competent authorities, it is uncertain as to how the labor contract law and its implementation rules will affect MC’s current employment policies and practices. MC’s employment policies and practices may violate the labor contract law or its implementation rules, and MC may thus be subject to related penalties, fines or legal fees. Compliance with the labor contract law and its implementation rules may increase MC’s operating expenses, in particular MC’s personnel expenses. In the event that MC decides to terminate some of its employees or otherwise changes its employment or labor practices, the labor contract law and its implementation rules may also limit MC’s ability to effect those changes in a desirable or cost-effective manner, which could adversely affect MC’s business and results of operations. According to the Social Insurance Law and the Regulations on the Management of Housing Fund, employees must participate in pension insurance, work-related injury insurance, medical insurance, unemployment insurance and maternity insurance and housing funds, and the employers must, together with their employees or separately, pay the social insurance premiums and housing funds for such employees.

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

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

The M&A Rules and certain other PRC regulations may make it more difficult for MC to pursue growth through acquisitions.

The Regulations on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Companies by Foreign Investors, or the M&A Rules, adopted by six PRC regulatory agencies in 2006 and amended in 2009, and some other regulations and rules concerning mergers and acquisitions established complex procedures and requirements for acquisition of Chinese companies by foreign investors, including requirements in some instances that the Ministry of Commerce of the PRC be notified in advance of any change-of-control transaction in which a foreign investor takes control of a PRC domestic enterprise. Moreover, the Anti-Monopoly Law promulgated by the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress, which became effective in 2008, requires that transactions which are deemed concentrations and involve parties with specified turnover thresholds must be cleared by the Ministry of Commerce before they can be completed. In addition, the security review rules issued by the Ministry of Commerce and became effective in September 2011 specify that mergers and acquisitions by foreign investors that raise “national defense and security” concerns and mergers and acquisitions through which foreign investors may acquire de facto control over domestic enterprises that raise “national security” concerns are subject to strict review by the Ministry of Commerce, and the rules prohibit any activities attempting to bypass a security review, including by structuring the transaction through a proxy or contractual control arrangement.

In the future, MC may pursue potential strategic acquisitions that are complementary to MC’s business and operations. Complying with the requirements of the above-mentioned regulations and other rules to complete such transactions could be time-consuming, and any required approval processes, including obtaining approval or clearance from the Ministry of Commerce, may delay or inhibit MC’s ability to complete such transactions, which could affect MC’s ability to expand its business or maintain MC’s market share. Furthermore, according to the M&A Rules, if a PRC entity or individual plans to merger or acquire its related PRC entity through an overseas company legitimately incorporated or controlled by such entity or individual, such a merger and acquisition will be subject to examination and approval by the Ministry of Commerce. The application and interpretations of M&A Rules are still uncertain, and there is possibility that the PRC regulators may promulgate new rules or explanations requiring that MC obtain approval of the Ministry of Commerce for MC’s completed or ongoing mergers and acquisitions. There is no assurance that MC can obtain such approval from the Ministry of Commerce for MC’s mergers and acquisitions, and if MC fails to obtain those approvals, MC may be required to suspend the acquisition and be subject to penalties. Any uncertainties regarding such approval requirements could have a material adverse effect on MC’s business, results of operations and corporate structure.

The approval of the China Securities Regulatory Commission may be required in connection with this business combination and offering under a regulation adopted in August 2006, and, if required, MC cannot assure you that MC will be able to obtain such approval.

The Regulations on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Companies by Foreign Investors, or the M&A Rules, adopted by six PRC regulatory agencies in 2006 and amended in 2009, requires an overseas special purpose vehicle formed for listing purposes through acquisitions of PRC domestic companies and controlled by PRC companies or individuals to obtain the approval of the China Securities Regulatory Commission, or the CSRC, prior to the listing and trading of such special purpose vehicle’s securities on an overseas stock exchange. In September 2006, the CSRC published a notice on its official website specifying documents and materials required to be submitted to it by a special purpose vehicle seeking CSRC approval of its overseas listings. However, substantial uncertainty remains regarding the scope and applicability of the M&A Rules to offshore special purpose vehicles. Currently, there is no consensus among leading PRC law firms regarding the scope and applicability of the CSRC approval requirement.

MC’s PRC counsel, Fawan Law Firm, has advised MC based on their understanding of the current PRC law, rules and regulations that the CSRC’s approval is not required for the listing and trading of MC’s ordinary shares on Nasdaq in the context of the proposed business combination with Golden Path, given that:

Furthermore, the M&A Rules purport to require that an offshore special purpose vehicle controlled directly or indirectly by PRC domestic companies or individuals and formed for purposes of overseas listing through the acquisition of PRC domestic interests obtain the approval of the CSRC prior to the listing and trading of such special purpose vehicle’s securities on an overseas stock exchange. The CSRC has not issued any definitive rules or interpretations concerning whether offerings such as this offering are subject to the CSRC approval procedures under the M&A Rules. MC is of the position that MC is a Cayman company, and its PRC subsidiaries are foreign-funded enterprises, it is not required to obtain approval from the CSRC under the M&A Rules for listing and trading of its securities after the consummation of the Business Combination, but uncertainties still exist as to how the M&A Rules will be interpreted and implemented and the opinion stated above is subject to any new laws, rules and regulations or detailed implementations and interpretations in any form relating to the M&A Rules.

MC cannot assure you that relevant PRC governmental agencies, including the CSRC, would reach the same conclusion as MC does. If it is determined that CSRC approval is required for this business combination and offering, MC may face sanctions by the CSRC or other PRC regulatory agencies for failure to seek CSRC approval for this offering. These sanctions may include fines and penalties on MC’s operations in the PRC, limitations on MC’s operating privileges in the PRC, delays in or restrictions on the repatriation of the proceeds from this offering into the PRC, restrictions on or prohibition of the payments or remittance of dividends by MC’s PRC Entities, or other actions that could have a material and adverse effect on MC’s business, financial condition, results of operations, reputation and prospects, as well as the trading price of MC’s ordinary shares. The CSRC or other PRC regulatory agencies may also take actions requiring MC, or making it advisable for it, to halt this offering before the settlement and delivery of the ordinary shares that MC is offering. Consequently, if you engage in market trading or other activities in anticipation of and prior to the settlement and delivery of the ordinary shares MC is offering, you would be doing so at the risk that the settlement and delivery may not occur.

PRC regulations relating to offshore investment activities by PRC residents may limit MC’s PRC subsidiaries’ ability to increase their registered capital or distribute profits to MC or otherwise expose MC to liability and penalties under PRC law.

The State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”) promulgated the Circular on Relevant Issues Relating to PRC Resident’s Investment and Financing and Roundtrip Investment through Special Purpose Vehicles, or SAFE Circular 37, in July 2014 that requires PRC residents or entities to register with SAFE or its local branch in connection with their establishment or control of an offshore entity established for the purpose of overseas investment or financing. In addition, such PRC residents or entities must update their SAFE registrations when the offshore special purpose vehicle undergoes material events relating to any change of basic information (including change of such PRC residents or entities, name and operation term), increases or decreases in investment amount, transfers or exchanges of shares, or mergers or divisions.

SAFE Circular 37 is issued to replace the Circular on Relevant Issues Concerning Foreign Exchange Administration for PRC Residents Engaging in Financing and Roundtrip Investments through Overseas Special Purpose Vehicles. If MC’s shareholders who are PRC residents or entities do not complete their registration with the local SAFE branches, MC’s PRC subsidiaries may be prohibited from distributing their profits and proceeds from any reduction in capital, share transfer or liquidation to MC, and MC may be restricted in its ability to contribute additional capital to MC’s PRC subsidiaries. Moreover, failure to comply with SAFE registration described above could result in liability under PRC laws for evasion of applicable foreign exchange restrictions.

However, MC may not be informed of the identities of all the PRC residents or entities holding direct or indirect interest of MC, nor can MC compel its shareholders to comply with the requirements of SAFE Circular 37. Although MC’s shareholders who are PRC residents or entities have complied with SAFE Circular 37, MC cannot assure you that all of its shareholders who are PRC residents or entities will in the future make or obtain any applicable registrations or approvals required by, SAFE Circular 37. Failure by such shareholders to comply with SAFE Circular 37, or failure by MC to amend the foreign exchange registrations of its PRC subsidiaries, could subject MC to fines or legal sanctions, restrict MC’s overseas or cross-border investment activities, limit MC’s PRC subsidiaries’ ability to make distributions or pay dividends to MC or affect MC’s ownership structure, which could adversely affect MC’s business and prospects.

PRC regulation of loans to and direct investment in PRC entities by offshore holding companies and governmental control of currency conversion may delay or prevent MC from using the proceeds it receives from offshore financing activities to make loans to or make additional capital contributions to MC’s PRC subsidiaries, which could materially and adversely affect MC’s liquidity and its ability to fund and expand business.

Any transfer of funds by MC to its PRC subsidiaries, either as a shareholder loan or as an increase in registered capital, is subject to approval by or registration or filing with relevant governmental authorities in China. According to the relevant PRC regulations on foreign-invested enterprises in China, capital contributions to MC’s PRC subsidiaries are subject to the approval of or filing with the Ministry of Commerce in its local branches and registration with a local bank authorized by SAFE. In addition, (i) any foreign loan procured by MC’s PRC subsidiaries is required to be registered with SAFE or its local branches or filed with SAFE in its information system; and (ii) MC’s PRC subsidiaries may not procure loans which exceed the difference between their total investment amount and registered capital or, as an alternative, only procure loans subject to the calculation approach and limitation as provided in the People’s Bank of China Notice No. 9 (“PBOC Notice No. 9”). Any medium- or long-term loan to be provided by MC to its PRC-based subsidiaries must be registered with the National Development and Reform Commission and SAFE or its local branches. MC may not be able to obtain these government approvals or complete such registrations on a timely basis, if at all, with respect to future capital contributions or foreign loans by MC to its PRC subsidiaries. If MC fails to receive such approvals or complete such registration or filing, MC’s ability to use the proceeds it receives from MC’s offshore financing activities and to capitalize MC’s PRC operations may be negatively affected, which could adversely affect MC’s liquidity and ability to fund and expand its business. There is, in effect, no statutory limit on the amount of capital contribution that MC can make to its PRC subsidiaries. This is because there is no statutory limit on the amount of registered capital for MC’s PRC subsidiaries, and MC is allowed to make capital contributions to its PRC subsidiaries by subscribing for their initial registered capital and increased registered capital, provided that the PRC subsidiaries complete the relevant filing and registration procedures.

With respect to loans to the its PRC subsidiaries by MC, (i) if the PRC subsidiaries adopt the traditional foreign exchange administration mechanism, or the Current Foreign Debt Mechanism, the outstanding amount of the loans shall not exceed the difference between the total investment and the registered capital of the PRC subsidiaries; and (ii) if the PRC subsidiaries adopt the foreign exchange administration mechanism as provided in Notice of the People’s Bank of China on Matters concerning the Macro-Prudential Management of Full-Covered Cross-Border Financing, or the PBOC Notice No. 9, the risk-weighted outstanding amount of the loans, which shall be calculated based on the formula provided in PBOC Notice No. 9, shall not exceed 200% of the net asset of the PRC subsidiaries. According to the PBOC Notice No. 9, after a transition period of one year since the promulgation of PBOC Notice No. 9, the PBOC and SAFE will determine the cross-border financing administration mechanism for the foreign-invested enterprises after evaluating the overall implementation of PBOC Notice No. 9. As of the date hereof, neither the PBOC nor SAFE has promulgated and made public any further rules, regulations, notices or circulars in this regard. It is uncertain which mechanism will be adopted by the PBOC and SAFE in the future and what statutory limits will be imposed on MC when providing loans to MC’s PRC subsidiaries. Currently, MC’s PRC subsidiaries have the flexibility to choose between the Current Foreign Debt Mechanism and the Notice No. 9 Foreign Debt Mechanism. However, if a more stringent foreign debt mechanism becomes mandatory, MC’s ability to provide loans to MC’s PRC subsidiaries or MC’s consolidated affiliated entities may be significantly limited, which may adversely affect MC’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.

The Circular on Reforming the Administration of Foreign Exchange Settlement of Capital of Foreign-Invested Enterprises, or SAFE Circular 19, effective as of June 1, 2015, as amended by Circular of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on Reforming and Regulating Policies on the Control over Foreign Exchange Settlement under the Capital Account, or SAFE Circular 16, effective on June 9, 2016, allows FIEs to settle their foreign exchange capital at their discretion, but continues to prohibit FIEs from using the Renminbi fund converted from their foreign exchange capitals for expenditure beyond their business scopes, and also prohibit FIEs from using such Renminbi fund to provide loans to persons other than affiliates unless otherwise permitted under its business scope. As a result, MC is required to apply Renminbi funds converted from the net proceeds MC received from its offshore financing activities within the business scopes of MC’s PRC subsidiaries. SAFE Circular 19 and SAFE Circular 16 may significantly limit MC’s ability to use Renminbi converted from the net proceeds from MC’s offshore financing activities to fund the establishment of new entities in China by MC’s PRC subsidiaries, to invest in or acquire any other PRC companies through MC’s PRC subsidiaries, or to establish new consolidated subsidiary in China, which may adversely affect MC’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.

MC’s PRC subsidiaries are subject to restrictions on paying dividends or making other payments to MC, which may restrict its ability to satisfy liquidity requirements, conduct business and pay dividends to holders of MC’s ordinary shares.

MC is a holding company incorporated in the Cayman Islands. MC relies on dividends from its PRC subsidiaries, such as the funds necessary to pay dividends and other cash distributions to MC’s shareholders, including holders of MC’s ordinary shares, and service any debt MC may incur. Current PRC regulations permit MC’s PRC subsidiaries to pay dividends to MC only out of their accumulated after-tax profits upon satisfaction of relevant statutory condition and procedures, if any, determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards and regulations. In addition, MC’s PRC subsidiaries are required to set aside at least 10% of their accumulated profits each year, if any, to fund certain reserve funds until the total amount set aside reaches 50% of its registered capital. Furthermore, if MC’s PRC subsidiaries incur debt on their own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends or make other payments to MC, which may restrict MC’s ability to satisfy MC’s liquidity requirements.

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

Fluctuations in exchange rates could have a material adverse effect on MC’s results of operations and the value of your investment.

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

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

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

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

Failure to comply with PRC regulations regarding the registration requirements for employee stock ownership plans or share option plans may subject the PRC plan participants or MC to fines and other legal or administrative sanctions.

Pursuant to SAFE Circular 37, PRC residents who participate in share incentive plans in overseas non-publicly-listed companies may submit applications to SAFE or its local branches for the foreign exchange registration with respect to offshore special purpose companies. In the meantime, MC’s directors, executive officers and other employees who are PRC citizens or who are non-PRC residents residing in the PRC for a continuous period of not less than one year, subject to limited exceptions, and who have been granted incentive share awards by MC, may follow the Notices on Issues Concerning the Foreign Exchange Administration for Domestic Individuals Participating in Stock Incentive Plan of Overseas Publicly-Listed Company, or 2012 SAFE notices, promulgated by the SAFE in 2012. Pursuant to the 2012 SAFE notices, PRC citizens and non-PRC citizens who reside in China for a continuous period of not less than one year who participate in any stock incentive plan of an overseas publicly listed company, subject to a few exceptions, are required to register with SAFE through a domestic qualified agent, which could be the PRC subsidiaries of such overseas listed company, and complete certain other procedures. In addition, an overseas entrusted institution must be retained to handle matters in connection with the exercise or sale of stock options and the purchase or sale of shares and interests. MC’s executive officers and other employees who are PRC citizens or who reside in the PRC for a continuous period of not less than one year and who have been granted options are subject to these regulations. Failure to complete the SAFE registrations may subject them to fines, and legal sanctions and may also limit MC’s ability to contribute additional capital into MC’s PRC subsidiaries and limit MC’s PRC subsidiaries’ ability to distribute dividends to MC. MC also faces regulatory uncertainties that could restrict MC’s ability to adopt additional incentive plans for MC’s directors, executive officers, and employees under PRC law.

The SAT has issued certain circulars concerning employee share options and restricted shares. Under these circulars, MC’s employees working in China who exercise share options or are granted restricted shares will be subject to PRC individual income tax. MC’s PRC subsidiaries have obligations to file documents related to employee share options or restricted shares with relevant tax authorities and to withhold individual income taxes of those employees who exercise their share options. If MC’s employees fail to pay or MC fails to withhold their income taxes according to relevant laws and regulations, MC may face sanctions imposed by the tax authorities or other PRC governmental authorities.

MC’s leased property interests may be defective and its right to lease the properties affected by such defects may be challenged, which could adversely affect MC’s business.

According to the PRC Land Administration Law, land in urban districts is owned by the state. The owner of a property built on state-owned land must possess the proper land and property title certificate to demonstrate that it is the owner of the premises and that it has the right to enter into lease contracts with the tenants or to authorize a third party to sublease the premises. Some of the landlords of MC’s leased locations have failed to provide the title certificates to MC. MC’s right to lease the premises may be interrupted or adversely affected if MC’s landlords are not the property owners and the actual property owners should appear.

In addition, the title certificate usually records the approved use of the state-owned land by the government and the property owner is obligated to follow the approved use requirement when making use of the property. In the case of failure to utilize the property in accordance with the approved use, the land administration authorities may order the tenant to cease utilizing the premises or even invalidate the contract between the landlord and the tenant. If MC’s use of the leased premises is not in full compliance with the approved use of the land, MC may be unable to continue to use the property, which may cause disruption to MC’s business.

The PRC government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which MC and its PRC subsidiaries must conduct its business activities. MC is currently not required to obtain approval from Chinese authorities to list on U.S. exchanges, however, if MC or its PRC subsidiaries were required to obtain approval in the future and were denied permission from Chinese authorities to list on U.S. exchanges, MC will not be able to continue listing on U.S. exchange, which would materially affect the interest of the investors.

The PRC government has exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership. MC’s ability to operate in China may be harmed by changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, environmental regulations, land use rights, property and other matters. The central data security, anti-monopoly policies or local PRC governments may impose new, stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would require additional expenditures and efforts on MC’s part to ensure its compliance with such regulations or interpretations. Accordingly, government actions in the future, including any decision not to continue to support recent economic reforms and to return to a more centrally planned economy or regional or local variations in the implementation of economic policies, could have a significant effect on economic conditions in the PRC or particular regions thereof, and could require MC to divest itself of any interest it then holds in Chinese properties.

For example, the Chinese cybersecurity regulator announced on July 2, 2021 that it had begun an investigation of Didi Global Inc. (NYSE: DIDI) and two days later ordered that the company’s app be removed from smartphone app stores.

Additionally, on July 6, 2021, the General Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the General Office of the State Council jointly issued the Opinions on Strictly Cracking Down on Illegal Securities Activities, or the Opinions, which emphasized the need to strengthen administration over illegal securities activities and supervision of overseas listings by China-based companies. The Opinions proposed promoting regulatory systems to deal with risks facing China-based overseas-listed companies, and provided that the State Council will revise provisions regarding the overseas issuance and listing of shares by companies limited by shares and will clarify the duties of domestic regulatory authorities. However, the Opinions did not provide detailed rules and regulations. As a result, uncertainties remain regarding the interpretation and implementation of the Opinions.

As such, MC and its PRC subsidiaries’ business segments may be subject to various government and regulatory interference in the provinces in which they operate. MC and its PRC subsidiaries could be subject to regulation by various political and regulatory entities, including various local and municipal agencies and government sub-divisions. MC and its PRC subsidiaries may incur increased costs necessary to comply with existing and newly adopted laws and regulations or penalties for any failure to comply.

Furthermore, it is uncertain when and whether MC will be required to obtain permission from the PRC government to list on U.S. exchanges in the future, and even when such permission is obtained, whether it will be denied or rescinded. Although MC is currently not required to obtain permission from any of the PRC federal or local government to obtain such permission and has not received any denial to list on the U.S. exchange, MC’s operations could be adversely affected, directly or indirectly, by existing or future laws and regulations relating to its business or industry.

You must tender your Golden Path ordinary shares in order to validly seek redemption at the Extraordinary General Meeting.

Golden Path may require its public shareholders seeking to exercise their redemption rights, whether they are record holders or hold their shares in “street name,” to either tender their certificates (if any) to Golden Path’s transfer agent prior to the date set forth in the tender offer documents or proxy materials mailed to such holders, or up to two business days prior to the vote on the proposal to approve a business combination in the event Golden Path distributes proxy materials, or to deliver their shares to the transfer agent electronically using The Depository Trust Company’s DWAC (Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian) System, at the holder’s option, rather than simply voting against a business combination. Any failure to observe these procedures will result in your loss of redemption rights in connection with the vote on the Business Combination.

If third parties bring claims against Golden Path, the proceeds held in trust could be reduced and the per-share liquidation price received by Golden Path’s shareholders may be less than $10.10.

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

Examples of possible instances where Golden Path may engage a third party that refuses to execute a waiver include the engagement of a third party consultant whose particular expertise or skills are believed by management to be significantly superior to those of other consultants that would agree to execute a waiver or in cases where management is unable to find a service provider willing to execute a waiver. In addition, there is no guarantee that such entities will agree to waive any claims they may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with Golden Path and will not seek recourse against the trust account for any reason. Upon redemption of Golden Path’s public shares, if Golden Path is unable to complete Golden Path’s business combination within the prescribed timeframe, or upon the exercise of a redemption right in connection with Golden Path’s business combination, Golden Path will be required to provide for payment of claims of creditors that were not waived that may be brought against Golden Path within the ten years following redemption. Accordingly, the per-share redemption amount received by public shareholders could be less than the $10.10 per share initially held in the trust account, due to claims of such creditors.

Golden Path’s Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to Golden Path if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to Golden Path, or a prospective target business with which Golden Path has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the trust account to below (i) $10.10 per public share or (ii) such lesser amount per public share held in the trust account as of the date of the liquidation of the trust account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the trust account and except as to any claims under Golden Path’s indemnity of the underwriters of Golden Path’s IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, Golden Path’s Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third party claims. Golden Path has not independently verified whether Golden Path’s Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy their indemnity obligations and believes that Golden Path’s Sponsor’s only assets are securities of Golden Path. Golden Path’s Sponsor may not have sufficient funds available to satisfy those obligations. Golden Path has not asked its Sponsor to reserve for such obligations, and therefore, no funds are currently set aside to cover any such obligations. As a result, if any such claims were successfully made against the trust account, the funds available for the Business Combination and redemptions could be reduced to less than $[●] per public share. In such event, Golden Path may not be able to complete the Business Combination, and you would receive such lesser amount per share in connection with any redemption of your public shares. None of Golden Path’s officers or directors will indemnify Golden Path for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.

Any distributions received by Golden Path’s shareholders could be viewed as an unlawful payment if it was proved that immediately following the date on which the distribution was made, Golden Path was unable to pay its debts as they fell due in the ordinary course of business and the value of its assets does not exceed its liabilities.

If Golden Path is forced to enter into an insolvent liquidation, any distributions received by shareholders could be viewed as an unlawful payment if it was proved that immediately following the date on which the distribution was made, Golden Path was unable to pay debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business. As a result, a liquidator could seek to recover all amounts received by Golden Path’s shareholders. Furthermore, Golden Path’s directors may be viewed as having breached their fiduciary duties to Golden Path or its creditors and/or may have acted in bad faith, and thereby exposing themselves and Golden Path to claims, by paying public shareholders from the trust account prior to addressing the claims of creditors. Golden Path cannot assure you that claims will not be brought against Golden Path for these reasons. Golden Path and its directors and officers who knowingly and willfully authorized or permitted any distribution to be paid out of Golden Path’s share premium account while Golden Path was unable to pay debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business would be guilty of an offence and may be liable on summary conviction to a fine of approximately $18,292.68 and to imprisonment for five years in the Cayman Islands.

If Golden Path’s due diligence investigation of MC was inadequate, then Golden Path shareholders following the Business Combination could lose some or all of their investment.

Even though Golden Path conducted a due diligence investigation of MC, it cannot be sure that this due diligence uncovered all material issues that may be present inside MC or its business, or that it would be possible to uncover all material issues through a customary amount of due diligence, or that factors outside of MC and its business and outside of its control will not later arise. If Golden Path’s due diligence investigation of MC was inadequate, then Golden Path shareholders following the Business Combination could lose some or all of their investment.

Golden Path’s officers and directors will allocate their time to other businesses thereby causing conflicts of interest in their determination as to how much time to devote to Golden Path’s affairs. This conflict of interest could have a negative impact on Golden Path’s ability to complete a business combination.

Golden Path’s officers and directors are not required to, and will not, commit their full time to Golden Path’s affairs, which may result in a conflict of interest in allocating their time between Golden Path’s operations and its search for a business combination and their other businesses. Golden Path does not have any full-time employees prior to the completion of the Business Combination. Each of Golden Path’s officers is engaged in several other business endeavors for which he or she may be entitled to substantial compensation and Golden Path’s officers are not obligated to contribute any specific number of hours per week to Golden Path’s affairs. Golden Path’s independent directors also serve as officers and board members for other entities. If Golden Path’s officers’ and directors’ other business affairs require them to devote substantial amounts of time to such affairs in excess of their current commitment levels, it could limit their ability to devote time to Golden Path’s affairs which may have a negative impact on Golden Path’s ability to complete a business combination.

All of Golden Path’s officers and directors own Golden Path ordinary shares, Golden Path warrants and Golden Path rights and will not participate in liquidation distributions and, therefore, they may have a conflict of interest in determining whether the Business Combination is appropriate.

On January 6, 2021, Golden Path’s Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 1,150,000 founder shares of Golden Path for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.02 per share. Prior to the investment in Golden Path of $25,000 by its Sponsor, Golden Path had no assets, tangible or intangible. On March 26, 2021, we issued an additional 287,500 in connection with a recapitalization of the Company. These founder shares will be worthless if Golden Path does not complete a business combination within a specified time limit. In addition, Golden Path’s Sponsor has purchased an aggregate of 270,500 private placement units, for a purchase price of $2,705,000 in the aggregate that will also be worthless if Golden Path does not complete a business combination within a specified time limit.

Each private placement unit consists of one private placement share, one private placement right, granting the holder thereof the right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of an ordinary share upon the consummation of a business combination, and one private placement warrant. Each private placement warrant may be exercised for one-half of one ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per whole share, subject to adjustment as provided herein.

The founder shares are identical to Golden Path’s ordinary shares except that (i) the founder shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions and (ii) Golden Path’s Sponsor, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with Golden Path, pursuant to which they have agreed (A) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares, private placement shares and public shares in connection with the completion of Golden Path’s business combination, (B) to waive their redemption rights with respect to any founder shares, private placement shares and public shares held by them in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to Golden Path’s memorandum and articles of association (x) to modify the substance or timing of Golden Path’s obligation to provide for the redemption of its public shares in connection with a business combination or to redeem 100% of Golden Path’s public shares if it has not consummated a business combination within the timeframe set forth therein or (y) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity, and (C) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to their founder shares and private placement shares if Golden Path fails to complete a business combination within 12 months from the closing of Golden Path’s IPO (or up to 21 months from the closing of Golden Path’s IPO if Golden Path extends the period of time to consummate a business combination, as described in more detail in this prospectus/registration statement) (although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to any public shares if they hold that Golden Path failed to complete a business combination within the prescribed time frame).

The personal and financial interests of Golden Path’s officers and directors may influence their motivation in identifying and selecting a target business combination, completing a business combination and influencing the operation of the business following the Business Combination.

Golden Path is requiring shareholders who wish to redeem their Golden Path ordinary shares in connection with the Business Combination to comply with specific requirements for redemption that may make it more difficult for them to exercise their redemption rights prior to the deadline for exercising their rights.

Golden Path is requiring public shareholders who wish to redeem their Golden Path ordinary shares to either tender their certificates to Golden Path’s transfer agent or deliver their shares to the transfer agent electronically using the Depository Trust Company’s, or DTC, DWAC System prior to the date set forth in the tender offer documents or proxy materials mailed to such holders, or up to two business days prior to the vote on the proposal to approve a business combination in the event Golden Path distributes proxy materials. In order to obtain a physical certificate, a shareholder’s broker and/or clearing broker, DTC and Golden Path’s transfer agent will need to act to facilitate this request. It is Golden Path’s understanding that shareholders should generally allot at least two weeks to obtain physical certificates from the transfer agent. However, because Golden Path does not have any control over this process or over the brokers or DTC, it may take significantly longer than two weeks to obtain a physical share certificate. While Golden Path has been advised that it takes a short time to deliver shares through the DWAC System, Golden Path cannot assure you of this fact. Accordingly, if it takes longer than Golden Path anticipates for shareholders to deliver their shares, shareholders who wish to redeem may be unable to meet the deadline for exercising their redemption rights and thus may be unable to redeem their Golden Path ordinary shares.

Golden Path will require its public shareholders who wish to redeem their Golden Path ordinary shares in connection with the Business Combination to comply with specific requirements for redemption described above, such redeeming shareholders may be unable to sell their securities when they wish to in the event that the Business Combination is not consummated.

If Golden Path requires public shareholders who wish to redeem their Golden Path ordinary shares in connection with the proposed Business Combination to comply with specific requirements for redemption as described above and elsewhere in this proxy/registration statement and the Business Combination is not consummated, Golden Path will promptly return such certificates to its public shareholders. Accordingly, investors who attempted to redeem their Golden Path ordinary shares in such a circumstance will be unable to sell their securities after the failed acquisition until Golden Path has returned their securities to them. The market price for Golden Path’s ordinary shares may decline during this time and public shareholders may not be able to sell their securities when they wish to, even while other shareholders that did not seek redemption may be able to sell their securities.

The initial shareholders of Golden Path, including the officers and directors, control a substantial interest in Golden Path and thus may influence certain actions requiring a shareholder vote.

Golden Path’s initial shareholders, including the officers and directors, collectively own approximately 22.90% of its issued and outstanding Golden Path ordinary shares. However, if a significant number of Golden Path shareholders vote, or indicate an intention to vote, against the Business Combination, Golden Path’s initial shareholders or the affiliates, could make such purchases in the open market or in private transactions in order to influence the vote. Golden Path’s initial shareholders or the affiliates have agreed to vote any shares they own in favor of the Business Combination.

If the current Golden Path’s security holders exercise their registration rights with respect to their securities, it may have an adverse effect on the market price of New Golden Path’s securities.

Pursuant to an agreement entered into concurrently with the issuance and sale of the securities in Golden Path’s IPO, Golden Path’s Sponsor and its permitted transferees can demand that Golden Path registers their founder shares. In addition, holders of Golden Path’s private placement units and their permitted transferees can demand that Golden Path registers the private placement units and their underlying securities, and holders of units that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans, may demand that Golden Path registers such units and their underlying securities. Golden Path will bear the cost of registering these securities. The registration and availability of such a significant number of securities for trading in the public market may have an adverse effect on the market price of Golden Path’s ordinary shares. In addition, the existence of the registration rights may make Golden Path’s business combination more costly or difficult to conclude. This is because the shareholders of the target business may increase the equity stake they seek in the combined entity or ask for more cash consideration to offset the negative impact on the market price of Golden Path’s ordinary shares that is expected when the ordinary shares owned by Golden Path’s Sponsor, holders of Golden Path’s private placement units or holders of Golden Path’s working capital loans or their respective permitted transferees are registered.

If the Business Combination’s benefits do not meet the expectations of financial or industry analysts, the market price of Golden Path’s securities may decline after the consummation of the Business Combination.

The market price of Golden Path’s securities may decline as a result of the Business Combination if:

Accordingly, investors may experience a loss as a result of decreasing stock prices.

Golden Path’s directors and officers may have certain conflicts in determining to recommend the acquisition of MC, since certain of their interests, and certain interests of their affiliates and associates, are different from, or in addition to, your interests as a shareholder.

Golden Path’s management and directors have interests in and arising from the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, your interests as a shareholder, which could result in a real or perceived conflict of interest. These interests include the fact that certain of the Golden Path’s securities owned by Golden Path’s management and directors, or their affiliates and associates, would become worthless if the Business Combination is not approved and Golden Path otherwise fails to consummate a business combination prior to its liquidation.

Our Sponsor, officers and directors will not be eligible to be reimbursed for their out-of-pocket expenses if an initial business combination is not completed.

At the closing, our Sponsor, officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on Golden Path’s behalf, such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. There is no cap or ceiling on the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on Golden Path’s behalf. The personal and financial interests of our Sponsor, executive officers and directors may influence their motivation in identifying and selecting a target business and completing the Business Combination.

The following table illustrates the out-of-pocket expenses incurred of Sponsor, officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, who are awaiting reimbursement on June 30, 2021.

The personal and financial interests of our Sponsor, executive officers and directors on obtaining reimbursement of expenses may therefore influence their motivation in identifying and selecting a target business and completing the Business Combination. See also “The Business Combination Proposal — Potential Conflicts of Interest” for further discussion of the possible conflicts between you and our Sponsor, officers and directors as a result of the Business Combination Proposal.

Golden Path will incur significant transaction costs in connection with transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

Golden Path will incur significant transaction costs in connection with the Business Combination. If the Business Combination is not consummated, Golden Path may not have sufficient funds to seek an alternative business combination and may be forced to voluntarily liquidate and subsequently dissolve.

New Golden Path’s goodwill is subject to impairment review and any goodwill impairment may negatively affect New Golden Path’s reported results of operation.

Under United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires New Golden Path to test for goodwill impairment at least annually. In addition, New Golden Path will review goodwill and amortizable intangible assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors that may be considered a change in circumstances indicating that the carrying value of New Golden Path’s goodwill or amortizable intangible assets may not be recoverable include declines in stock price, market capitalization or cash flows, and slower growth rates in New Golden Path; industry. Depending on the results of New Golden Path’s review, New Golden Path could be required to record a significant charge to earnings in its financial statements during the period in which any impairment of New Golden Path’s goodwill or amortizable intangible assets were determined, negatively impacting New Golden Path’s results of operations.

Golden Path’s search for a business combination, and any target business with which Golden Path ultimately consummates a business combination, may be materially adversely affected by the recent coronavirus (“COVID-19”) outbreak.

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus was reported to have surfaced, which has and is continuing to spread throughout the world. On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern.” On January 31, 2020, U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Alex M. Azar II declared a public health emergency for the United States to aid the U.S. healthcare community in responding to COVID-19, and on March 11, 2020 the World Health Organization characterized the outbreak as a “pandemic.” The COVID-19 outbreak has resulted in a widespread health crisis that has adversely affected economies and financial markets worldwide, business operations and the conduct of commerce generally, and the business of any potential target business with which Golden Path consummates a business combination could be, or may already have been, materially and adversely affected. Furthermore, Golden Path may be unable to complete a business combination if concerns relating to COVID-19 continue to restrict travel or limit the ability to have meetings with potential investors, or the target company’s personnel, vendors and services providers are unavailable to negotiate and consummate a transaction in a timely manner. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts Golden Path’s search for a business combination will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and the actions to contain COVID-19 or treat its impact, among others. If the disruptions posed by COVID-19 or other matters of global concern continue for an extensive period of time, Golden Path’s ability to consummate a business combination, or the operations of a target business with which Golden Path ultimately consummates a business combination, may be materially adversely affected.

In addition, Golden Path’s ability to consummate a transaction may be dependent on the ability to raise equity and debt financing which may be impacted by COVID-19 and other events, including as a result of increased market volatility and decreased market liquidity and third-party financing being unavailable on terms acceptable to Golden Path or at all.

There are risks to our shareholders who are not affiliates of the Sponsor of becoming shareholders of the Post-Business Combination company through the Business Combination rather than acquiring securities of MC directly in an underwritten public offering, including no independent due diligence review by an underwriter and conflicts of interest of the Sponsor.

Because there is no independent third-party underwriter involved in the Business Combination or the issuance of the ordinary shares as the Merger consideration in connection therewith, investors will not receive the benefit of any outside independent review of MC’s finances and operations. Underwritten public offerings of securities conducted by a licensed broker-dealer are subjected to a due diligence review by the underwriter or dealer manager to satisfy statutory duties under the Securities Act, the rules of Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) and the national securities exchange where such securities are listed. Additionally, underwriters or dealer-managers conducting such public offerings are subject to liability for any material misstatements or omissions in a registration statement filed in connection with the public offering. As no such review will be conducted in connection with the Business Combination, our shareholders must rely on the information in this proxy statement/prospectus and will not have the benefit of an independent review and investigation of the type normally performed by an independent underwriter in a public securities offering.

In addition, the Sponsor and Golden Path’s executive officers and directors have interests in the Business Combination that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of our shareholders generally. Such interests may have influenced Golden Path’s directors in making their recommendation that you vote in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and the other proposals described in this proxy statement/prospectus. See “The Business Combination Proposal — Potential Conflicts of Interest” for further discussion of the possible conflicts between you and our Sponsor, officers and directors as a result of the Business Combination Proposal.

Golden Path and MC have incurred and expect to incur significant costs associated with the Business Combination. Whether or not the Business Combination is completed, the incurrence of these costs will reduce the amount of cash available to be used for other corporate purposes by New Golden Path if the Business Combination is completed or by Golden Path if the Business Combination is not completed.

Golden Path and MC expect to incur significant costs associated with the Business Combination. Whether or not the Business Combination is completed, Golden Path expects to incur approximately $500,000 in expenses. These expenses will reduce the amount of cash available to be used for other corporate purposes by New Golden Path if the Business Combination is completed or by Golden Path if the Business Combination is not completed.

Deferred underwriting fees in connection with our IPO and payable at the consummation of our initial business combination will not be adjusted to account for redemptions by our Public Shareholders.

The underwriters in our IPO are entitled to deferred underwriting commissions totaling $1,437,500 upon the consummation of our initial business combination, such amounts being held in our Trust Account until the consummation of our initial business combination. Such amounts will not be adjusted to account for redemptions of Public Shares by our Public Shareholders.

If MC or New Golden Path fails to implement and maintain an effective system of internal controls, New Golden Path may be unable to accurately report MC’s results of operations, meet New Golden Path’s reporting obligations or prevent fraud, and investor confidence and the market price of New Golden Path’s ordinary shares may be materially and adversely affected.

In the course of auditing MC’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, MC and its independent registered public accounting firm have identified certain material weaknesses in MC’s internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board of the United States (“PCAOB”). As defined in the standards established by the U.S. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, a “material weakness” is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

The first material weakness is that MC did not maintain an effective control environment. Specifically, MC lacked sufficient resources regarding financial reporting and accounting personnel with an understanding of U.S. GAAP, in particular, to address complex U.S. GAAP technical accounting issues, related disclosures in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and financial reporting requirements set forth by the SEC. However, after the consummation of the Business Combination, MC will become a part of New Golden Path, a public company in the United States subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Under these circumstances, New Golden Path and MC’s accounting department will be strengthened to place a focus on continuously enhancing staff’s U.S. GAAP expertise. New Golden Path and MC also undertake to provide internal training to the current accounting team on U.S. GAAP knowledge and also require staff members to participate in trainings and seminars provided by professional services firms on a regular basis to gain knowledge on regular accounting/SEC reporting updates.

The second material weakness is that MC lacked formal policies and procedures to establish a risk assessment process and internal control framework and lacked an audit committee and the internal audit function to establish formal risk assessment process and internal control framework. To respond to this material weakness, New Golden Path and MC plan to devote significant effort and resources to the remediation and improvement of its risk assessment process and internal control framework. Moreover, upon the closing of the Business Combination, Golden Path will re-constitute the membership of the audit committee. The existing charters previously adopted by Golden Path following its IPO will continue to be in effect. The audit committee will consist of three independent directors and be headed by audit committee chair, Mr. Mi Zhou. Mr. Mi Zhou has extensive experience and expertise in finance, investment and capital markets and Golden Path has determined that he qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert.”

In addition, MC has identified three material weaknesses in information technology general control (“ITGC”) in the areas of: (1) system change, incident management, and vulnerability or penetration testing management; (2) backup management, disaster recovery, proper equipment in physical environment control and IT management monitors; and (3) system security and access/segregation of duties. Although MC has since taken some steps to remediate the material weaknesses since its identification, remediation efforts may be ineffective which as a result may materially and adversely affect MC’s business.

After the consummation of the Business Combination MC will become a part of Golden Path (which we refer to as New Golden Path), a public company in the United States subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 will require that New Golden Path include a report of management on its internal control over financial reporting and that its independent registered public accounting firm attest to and report on the effectiveness of New Golden Path’s internal control over financial reporting in New Golden Path’s annual report on Form 20-F or Form 10-K beginning with New Golden Path’s annual report for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022. New Golden Path’s management may conclude that its internal control over financial reporting is not effective. Moreover, even if New Golden Path’s management concludes that its internal control over financial reporting is effective, New Golden Path’s independent registered public accounting firm, after conducting its own independent testing, may issue a report that is qualified if it is not satisfied with New Golden Path’s internal controls or the level at which such internal controls are documented, designed, operated or reviewed, or if it interprets the relevant requirements differently from New Golden Path. In addition, once MC becomes part of Golden Path after the Business Combination, New Golden Path’s reporting obligations may place a significant strain on management, operational and financial resources and systems for the foreseeable future. New Golden Path may be unable to timely complete its evaluation testing and any required remediation.

During the course of documenting and testing New Golden Path’s internal control procedures, in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404, New Golden Path may identify other weaknesses and deficiencies in its internal control over financial reporting. In addition, if New Golden Path fails to maintain the adequacy of its internal control over financial reporting, as these standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, New Golden Path may not be able to conclude on an ongoing basis that it has effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404. If New Golden Path fails to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment, it could suffer material misstatements in New Golden Path’s financial statements and fail to meet reporting obligations, which would likely cause investors to lose confidence in New Golden Path’s reported financial information. This could in turn limit New Golden Path’s access to capital markets, harm New Golden Path’s results of operations, and lead to a decline in the trading price of New Golden Path’s ordinary shares.

Additionally, ineffective internal control over financial reporting could expose New Golden Path to increased risk of fraud or misuse of corporate assets and subject New Golden Path to potential delisting from the stock exchange on which New Golden Path lists, regulatory investigations and civil or criminal sanctions. New Golden Path may also be required to restate New Golden Path’s financial statements from prior periods.

In the event that a significant number of Golden Path shares are redeemed, New Golden Path ordinary shares may become less liquid following the Business Combination.

At the time Golden Path enters into an agreement for the Business Combination, Golden Path will not know how many shareholders may exercise their redemption rights, and therefore Golden Path will need to structure the transaction based on its expectations as to the number of shares that will be submitted for redemption. If Golden Path’s business combination agreement requires Golden Path to use a portion of the cash in the trust account to pay the purchase price, or requires Golden Path to have a minimum amount of cash at closing, Golden Path will need to reserve a portion of the cash in the trust account to meet such requirements, or arrange for third party financing. In addition, if a larger number of shares are submitted for redemption than Golden Path initially expected, Golden Path may need to restructure the transaction to reserve a greater portion of the cash in the trust account or arrange for third party financing. Raising additional third-party financing may involve dilutive equity issuances or the incurrence of indebtedness at higher than desirable levels. The above considerations may limit Golden Path’s ability to complete the most desirable business combination available to Golden Path or optimize its capital structure.

The Sponsor or Golden Path’s directors, executive officers or advisors or their respective affiliates or shareholders of MC may elect to purchase shares from Public Shareholders, which may influence the vote on the Business Combination and reduce the public “float” of New Golden Path’s Ordinary Shares.

The Sponsor or Golden Path’s directors, executive officers or advisors or their respective affiliates or the shareholders of MC may purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions or in the open market either prior to or following the completion of the Business Combination, although they are under no obligation to do so and have not advised Golden Path that they anticipate making such purchases. Such a purchase may include a contractual acknowledgement that such shareholder, although still the record holder of Golden Path ordinary shares is no longer the beneficial owner thereof and therefore agrees not to exercise its redemption rights. In the event that the Sponsor or Golden Path’s directors, executive officers or advisors or their respective affiliates purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions from Public Shareholders who have already elected to exercise their redemption rights, such selling shareholders would be required to revoke their prior elections to redeem their shares. The purpose of such purchases could be to vote such shares in favor of the Business Combination and thereby increase the likelihood of obtaining shareholder approval of the Business Combination, where it appears that such requirement would otherwise not be met. This may result in the completion of the Business Combination that may not otherwise have been possible.

In addition, if such purchases are made, the public “float” of New Golden Path ordinary shares post-closing and the number of beneficial holders of our securities may be reduced, possibly making it difficult to maintain or obtain the quotation, listing or trading of securities on a national securities exchange.

If a shareholder fails to comply with the procedures for redeeming its public shares, such shares may not be redeemed.

In order to validly redeem public shares, holders of Golden Path’s public shares will need to comply with the various procedures described in this proxy statement/prospectus. In the event that a shareholder fails to comply with these procedures, its shares may not be redeemed.

You will not have any rights or interests in funds from the trust account, except under certain limited circumstances. Therefore, to liquidate your investment, you may be forced to sell your public shares or warrants, potentially at a loss.

Golden Path’s public shareholders will be entitled to receive funds from the trust account only upon the earlier to occur of: (i) the completion of an initial business combination, and then only in connection with those public shares that such shareholder properly elected to redeem, subject to the limitations described herein, (ii) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend Golden Path’s existing organizational documents pursuant to the extension proxy statement, and (iii) the redemption of Golden Path’s public shares if it is unable to complete an initial business combination by June 23, 2022, subject to applicable law and as further described herein. In no other circumstances will a public shareholder have any right or interest of any kind in the trust account. Holders of warrants will not have any right to the proceeds held in the trust account with respect to the warrants. Accordingly, to liquidate your investment, you may be forced to sell your public shares or warrants, potentially at a loss.

Golden Path may waive one or more of the conditions to the Business Combination without resoliciting Golden Path shareholder approval for the Business Combination.

Golden Path may agree to waive, in whole or in part, some of the conditions to its obligations to complete the Business Combination, to the extent permitted by applicable laws. The Golden Path’s board of directors will evaluate the materiality of any waiver to determine whether amendment of this proxy statement/prospectus and resolicitation of proxies is warranted.

In some instances, if the Golden Path’s board of directors determines that a waiver is not sufficiently material to warrant resolicitation of Golden Path’s shareholders, Golden Path has the discretion to complete the Business Combination without seeking further shareholder approval. For example, it is a condition to Golden Path’s obligations to close the Business Combination that there be no restraining order, injunction or other order restricting MC’s conduct of its business, however, if the Golden Path’s board of directors determines that any such order or injunction is not material to the business of MC, then the Golden Path’s board of directors may elect to waive that condition and close the Business Combination.

Golden Path’s directors may decide not to enforce the indemnification obligations of its Sponsor, resulting in a reduction in the amount of funds in the trust account available for distribution to Golden Path’s public shareholders.

In the event that the proceeds in the trust account are reduced below (i) $10.10 per public share or (ii) such lesser amount per share held in the trust account as of the date of the liquidation of the trust account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, and Golden Path’s Sponsor asserts that it is unable to satisfy its obligations or that it has no indemnification obligations related to a particular claim, Golden Path’s independent directors would determine whether to take legal action against Golden Path’s Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations. While Golden Path currently expects that its independent directors would take legal action on Golden Path’s behalf against its Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations to Golden Path, it is possible that such independent directors in exercising their business judgment may choose not to do so in any particular instance. If Golden Path’s independent directors choose not to enforce these indemnification obligations, the amount of funds in the trust account available for distribution to Golden Path’s public shareholders may be reduced below $10.10 per share.

Golden Path may not have sufficient funds to satisfy indemnification claims of its directors and executive officers.

Golden Path has agreed to indemnify its officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by law. However, Golden Path’s officers and directors have agreed to waive any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the trust account and to not seek recourse against the trust account for any reason whatsoever. Accordingly, any indemnification provided will be able to be satisfied by Golden Path only if (i) it has sufficient funds outside of the trust account or (ii) Golden Path consummates an initial business combination. Golden Path’s obligation to indemnify its officers and directors may discourage shareholders from bringing a lawsuit against its officers or directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions also may have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against Golden Path’s officers and directors, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit Golden Path and its shareholders. Furthermore, a shareholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent Golden Path pays the costs of settlement and damage awards against its officers and directors pursuant to these indemnification provisions.

There will be a substantial number of Golden Path ordinary shares available for sale in the future that may adversely affect the market price of Golden Path ordinary shares.

Sales of a substantial number of ordinary shares following the completion of the Merger in the public market could occur at any time. These sales, or the perception in the market that the holders of a large number of ordinary shares intend to sell ordinary shares, could reduce the market price of New Golden Path ordinary shares.

It is anticipated that, upon completion of the Business Combination, we will have an aggregate of 52,994,505 ordinary shares issued and outstanding. Of these shares, an aggregate of 41,934,455 ordinary shares will be subject to the lock-up restrictions on sale, assignment or transfer on the terms described elsewhere in this prospectus.

We will also have an aggregate of warrants to acquire an aggregate of 2,875,000 ordinary shares with an exercise price of $11.50 per share held by existing shareholders, other than the Sponsor; and warrants held by our Sponsor to acquire 135,250 ordinary shares with an exercise price of $11.50 per share.

We intend to file one or more registration statements shortly after the closing of the Business Combination to provide for the resale of such shares from time to time, including the ordinary shares underlying our warrants. As restrictions on resale end and the registration statements are available for use, the market price of New Golden Path ordinary shares could decline if the holders of currently restricted shares sell them or are perceived by the market as intending to sell them.

Golden Path shareholders will experience immediate dilution as a consequence of the issuance of Golden Path ordinary shares as consideration in the Business Combination and the automatic conversion of Golden Path Rights into New Golden Path ordinary shares upon the consummation of the Business Combination. Having a minority share position may reduce the influence that Golden Path’s current shareholders have on the management of Golden Path.

After the Business Combination, (i) assuming there are no redemptions of Golden Path’s shares, or (ii) an exercise of any outstanding Golden Path Warrants to acquire Golden Path ordinary shares, and (iii) Golden Path Rights are converted into New Golden Path ordinary shares upon the closing of the Business Combination, Golden Path’s current public shareholders will own approximately 11.94% of the issued share capital of Golden Path, Golden Path’s current directors, officers and affiliates will own approximately 3.27% of the issued share capital of Golden Path, and MC shareholders will own approximately 84.07% of the issued share capital of New Golden Path. Assuming redemption by holders of 5,750,000 Golden Path’s outstanding ordinary shares, Golden Path’s current public shareholders will own approximately 1.22% of the issued share capital of Golden Path, Golden Path’s current directors, officers and affiliates will own approximately 3.67% of the issued share capital of Golden Path, and MC shareholders will own approximately 94.31% of the issued share capital of Golden Path. The minority position of the former Golden Path’s shareholders will give them limited influence over the management and operations of the post-Business Combination Company.

New Golden Path is a Cayman Islands company and, because judicial precedent regarding the rights of shareholders is more limited under Cayman Islands law than under U.S. law, you may have less protection for your shareholder rights than you would under U.S. law.

New Golden Path’s corporate affairs are governed by its memorandum and articles of association as amended and restated from time to time, the Companies Act and the common law of the Cayman Islands. The rights of shareholders to take action against the directors, actions by minority shareholders and the fiduciary duties of New Golden Path’s directors to New Golden Path under Cayman Islands law are to a large extent governed by the common law of the Cayman Islands. The common law of the Cayman Islands is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the Cayman Islands as well as that from English common law, which has persuasive, but not binding, authority on a court in the Cayman Islands. The rights of New Golden Path’s shareholders and the fiduciary duties of its directors under Cayman Islands law are not as clearly established as they would be under statutes or judicial precedent in some jurisdictions in the United States. In particular, the Cayman Islands has a different body of securities laws than the United States. In addition, some U.S. states, such as Delaware, have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies of corporate law than the Cayman Islands. There is no statutory recognition in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, although the courts of the Cayman Islands will in certain circumstances recognize and enforce a non-penal judgment of a foreign court of competent jurisdiction without retrial on the merits. As a result of all of the above, public shareholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions taken by management, members of the board of directors or controlling shareholders than they would as shareholders of a U.S. public company.

Certain judgments obtained against New Golden Path by New Golden Path’s shareholders may not be enforceable.

New Golden Path is a company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands. MC conducts most of its operations in China and substantially all of its operations outside of the United States. Most of MC’s assets are located in China, and substantially all of MC’s assets are located outside of the United States. In addition, after the Business Combination, most of New Golden Path’s senior executive officers reside within China for a significant portion of the time and most are PRC nationals. Substantially all of the assets of these persons are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for you to bring an action against New Golden Path or against these individuals in the United States in the event that you believe that your rights have been infringed under the U.S. federal securities laws or otherwise. Even if you are successful in bringing an action of this kind, the laws of the Cayman Islands and of China may render you unable to enforce a judgment against New Golden Path’s assets or the assets of MC’s directors and officers.

Golden Path shareholders cannot be sure that an active trading market will develop for or of the market price of the ordinary shares of New Golden Path they will receive or that New Golden Path will successfully obtain authorization for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

Golden Path and MC have agreed to use their best efforts to cause the ordinary shares of New Golden Path to be issued in the Business Combination to be approved for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market prior to the effective time of the Business Combination. However, the listing of shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market does not ensure that a market for the ordinary shares of New Golden Path will develop or the price at which the shares will trade. No assurance can be provided as to the demand for or trading price of the ordinary shares of New Golden Path following the closing of the Business Combination and the ordinary shares of New Golden Path may trade at a price less than the current market price of the ordinary share of Golden Path.

Even if New Golden Path is successful in developing a public market, there may not be enough liquidity in such market to enable shareholders to sell their ordinary shares. If a public market for the combined New Golden Path’s ordinary shares does not develop, investors may not be able to re-sell their ordinary shares, rendering their shares illiquid and possibly resulting in a complete loss of their investment. New Golden Path cannot predict the extent to which investor interest in New Golden Path will lead to the development of an active, liquid trading market. The trading price of and demand for the ordinary shares of New Golden Path following completion of the Business Combination and the development and continued existence of a market and favorable price for the ordinary shares of New Golden Path will depend on a number of conditions, including the development of a market following, including by analysts and other investment professionals, the businesses, operations, results and prospects of New Golden Path, general market and economic conditions, governmental actions, regulatory considerations, legal proceedings and developments or other factors. These and other factors may impair the development of a liquid market and the ability of investors to sell shares at an attractive price. These factors also could cause the market price and demand for the ordinary shares of New Golden Path to fluctuate substantially, which may limit or prevent investors from readily selling their shares and may otherwise affect negatively the price and liquidity of the ordinary shares of New Golden Path. Many of these factors and conditions are beyond the control of New Golden Path or New Golden Path shareholders.

New Golden Path may be unable to obtain additional financing to fund its operations or growth.

New Golden Path may require additional financing to fund its operations or growth. The failure to secure additional financing could have a material adverse effect on the continued development or growth of New Golden Path. None of Golden Path’s officers, directors or shareholders is required to provide any financing to New Golden Path in connection with or after its initial business combination.

New Golden Path’s share price may be volatile and could decline substantially.

The trading prices of New Golden Path’s ordinary shares are likely to be volatile and could fluctuate widely due to factors beyond New Golden Path’s control. This may happen because of broad market and industry factors, like the performance and fluctuation in the market prices or the underperformance or deteriorating financial results of companies based in China that have listed their securities in the United States in recent years. The securities of some of these companies have experienced significant volatility since their initial public offerings, including, in some cases, substantial decline in their trading prices. The trading performances of other PRC companies’ securities after their offerings may affect the attitudes of investors toward PRC companies listed in the United States, which consequently may impact the trading performance of New Golden Path’s ordinary shares, regardless of New Golden Path’s actual operating performance. In addition, any negative news or perceptions about inadequate corporate governance practices or fraudulent accounting, corporate structure or other matters of other PRC companies may also negatively affect the attitudes of investors towards PRC companies in general, including New Golden Path, regardless of whether New Golden Path has conducted any inappropriate activities. In addition, securities markets may from time to time experience significant price and volume fluctuations that are not related to New Golden Path’s operating performance, which may have a material adverse effect on the market price of New Golden Path’s shares. In addition to the above factors, the price and trading volume of New Golden Path’s ordinary shares may be highly volatile due to multiple factors, including the following:

In addition, the stock markets have experienced significant price and trading volume fluctuations from time to time, and the market prices of the equity securities of retailers have been extremely volatile and are sometimes subject to sharp price and trading volume changes. These broad market fluctuations may materially and adversely affect the market price of New Golden Path’s ordinary shares.

New Golden Path does not intend to pay cash dividends for the foreseeable future.

Following the Business Combination, New Golden Path currently intends to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the further development and expansion of its business and does not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determinations to pay dividends will be at the discretion of New Golden Path’s board of directors and will depend on New Golden Path’s financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, restrictions contained in future agreements and financing instruments, business prospects and such other factors as New Golden Path’s board of directors deems relevant.

New Golden Path may be subject to securities litigation, which is expensive and could divert management attention.

The market price of New Golden Path’s ordinary shares may be volatile and, in the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have been subject to securities class action litigation. New Golden Path may be the target of this type of litigation in the future. Securities litigation against New Golden Path could result in substantial costs and divert management’s attention from other business concerns, which could seriously harm New Golden Path’s business.

The sale or availability for sale of substantial amounts ordinary shares could adversely affect New Golden Path’s market price.

Sales of substantial amounts of the ordinary shares in the public market after the completion of the Business Combination, or the perception that these sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of the New Golden Path ordinary shares and could materially impair New Golden Path’s ability to raise capital through equity offerings in the future. In connection with the Business Combination, MC shareholders will exchange the ordinary shares of MC held by them for New Golden Path ordinary shares upon the consummation of the Business Combination and will agree, subject to certain exceptions, not to sell any New Golden Path ordinary shares for a period as set forth in the Lock-up Agreements. Shares of New Golden Path to be held by MC’s certain existing shareholders after the Business Combination may be sold in the public market in the future subject to the restrictions in Rule 144 and Rule 701 under the Securities Act and the applicable lockup agreements. There will be 52,994,505 outstanding and issued New Golden Path ordinary shares immediately after the Business Combination. New Golden Path cannot predict what effect, if any, market sales of securities held by New Golden Path’s significant shareholders or any other holders or the availability of these securities for future sale will have on the market price of the New Golden Path ordinary shares.

If the current Golden Path security holders exercise their registration rights with respect to their securities, it may have an adverse effect on the market price of New Golden Path’s securities.

Pursuant to an agreement entered into concurrently with the issuance and sale of the securities in Golden Path’s IPO, our Sponsor and its permitted transferees can demand that New Golden Path register their founder shares. In addition, holders of Golden Path’s private placement units and their permitted transferees can demand that New Golden Path register for resale under the Securities Act the securities underlying the private placement units, and holders of units that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans, may demand that New Golden Path register for resale under the Securities Act the underlying securities. New Golden Path will bear the cost of registering these securities. The registration and availability of such a significant number of securities for trading in the public market may have an adverse effect on the market price of New Golden Path ordinary shares. In addition, the existence of the registration rights may make Golden Path’s business combination more costly or difficult to conclude. This is because the shareholders of the target business may increase the equity stake they seek in the combined entity or ask for more cash consideration to offset the negative impact on the market price of New Golden Path ordinary shares that is expected when the ordinary shares owned by our Sponsor, holders of Golden Path private placement units or holders of working capital loans or their respective permitted transferees are registered.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about New Golden Path or its business, its ordinary shares price and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for New Golden Path’s ordinary shares will depend in part on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about New Golden Path or its business. Securities and industry analysts do not currently, and may never, publish research on New Golden Path. If no securities or industry analysts commence coverage of New Golden Path, the trading price for its ordinary shares would likely be negatively impacted. In the event securities or industry analysts initiate coverage, if one or more of the analysts who cover New Golden Path downgrade its securities or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about its business, its stock price would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of New Golden Path or fail to publish reports on New Golden Path, demand for its ordinary shares could decrease, which might cause its ordinary share price and trading volume to decline.

New Golden Path may redeem your unexpired warrants prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to you, thereby making your warrants worthless.

New Golden Path will have the ability to redeem outstanding public warrants at any time after they become exercisable and prior to their expiration. If and when the warrants become redeemable by New Golden Path, New Golden Path may exercise the redemption right even if it is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws. Redemption of the outstanding warrants could force holders to (i) exercise the warrants and pay the exercise price therefor at a time when it may be disadvantageous to do so, (ii) sell the warrants at the then-current market price when the holder might otherwise wish to hold onto such warrants or (iii) accept the nominal redemption price which, at the time the outstanding warrants are called for redemption, is likely to be substantially less than the market value of the warrants. None of the private placement warrants will be redeemable by us so long as they are held by their initial purchasers or their permitted transferees.

In addition, New Golden Path may redeem your warrants after they become exercisable for a number of shares of New Golden Path ordinary shares determined based on the redemption date and the fair market value of New Golden Path ordinary shares. Any such redemption may have similar consequences to a cash redemption described above. In addition, such redemption may occur at a time when the warrants are “out-of-the- money,” in which case you would lose any potential embedded value from a subsequent increase in the value of our ordinary shares had your warrants remained outstanding.

If the benefits of the Business Combination do not meet the expectations of investors or securities analysts, the market price of our securities may decline.

If the benefits of the Business Combination do not meet the expectations of investors or securities analysts, the market price of Golden Path’s securities prior to the Closing may decline. The market values of Golden Path’s securities at the time of the Business Combination may vary significantly from their prices on the date the Merger Agreement was executed, the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, or the date on which Golden Path shareholders vote on the Business Combination. Because the number of shares to be issued is based on the per share value of the amount in the Trust Account and will not be adjusted to reflect any changes in the market price of Golden Path ordinary shares, the market value of New Golden Path ordinary shares issued in the Business Combination may be higher or lower than the values of these shares on earlier dates.

In addition, following the Business Combination, fluctuations in the price of New Golden Path’s securities could contribute to the loss of all or part of your investment. Prior to the Business Combination, there has not been a public market for the stock of MC and trading in Golden Path’s ordinary shares has not been active. Accordingly, the valuation ascribed to New Golden Path in the Business Combination may not be indicative of the price that will prevail in the trading market following the Business Combination. If an active market for our securities develops and continues, the trading price of New Golden Path securities following the Business Combination could be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control. Any of the factors listed below could have a material adverse effect on your investment in our securities and New Golden Path securities may trade at prices significantly below the price you paid for them. In such circumstances, the trading price of our securities may not recover and may experience a further decline.

Broad market and industry factors may materially harm the market price of our securities irrespective of our operating performance. The stock market in general, and Nasdaq specifically, have experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. As a result of this volatility, you may not be able to sell your securities at or above the price at which it was acquired. A loss of investor confidence in the market for the stocks of other companies which investors perceive to be similar to New Golden Path could depress our stock price regardless of our business, prospects, financial conditions or results of operations. A decline in the market price of our securities also could adversely affect our ability to issue additional securities and our ability to obtain additional financing in the future.

If New Golden Path cannot satisfy, or continue to satisfy, the initial listing requirements and other rules of Nasdaq, New Golden Path’s securities may not be listed or may be delisted, which could negatively impact the price of its securities and your ability to sell them.

New Golden Path will seek to have its securities approved for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market in connection with the Business Combination. New Golden Path cannot assure you that it will be able to meet those initial listing requirements at that time. Even if New Golden Path’s securities are listed on Nasdaq, it cannot assure you that its securities will continue to be listed on Nasdaq.

In addition, following the Business Combination, in order to maintain its listing on Nasdaq, New Golden Path will be required to comply with certain rules of Nasdaq, including those regarding minimum shareholders’ equity, minimum share price, minimum market value of publicly held shares, and various additional requirements. In order to continue listing New Golden Path’s securities on Nasdaq, New Golden Path must maintain certain financial, distribution and stock price levels. Generally, New Golden Path must maintain a minimum amount in shareholders’ equity (generally $2,500,000) and a minimum number of holders of New Golden Path’s securities (generally 300 public holders). Additionally, New Golden Path will be required to demonstrate compliance with Nasdaq’s initial listing requirements after this offering, which are more rigorous than Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements, in order to continue to maintain the listing of New Golden Path’s securities on Nasdaq. For instance, New Golden Path’s share price would generally be required to be at least $4.00 per share, New Golden Path’s shareholders’ equity would generally be required to be at least $5.0 million and New Golden Path would be required to have a minimum of 300 round lot holders of New Golden Path’s securities (with at least 50% of such round lot holders holding securities with a market value of at least $2,500). New Golden Path cannot assure you that New Golden Path will continue to meet those initial listing requirements. Even if New Golden Path initially meets the listing requirements and other applicable rules of Nasdaq, New Golden Path may not be able to continue to satisfy these requirements and applicable rules. If New Golden Path is unable to satisfy Nasdaq criteria for maintaining its listing, its securities could be subject to delisting.

If Nasdaq does not list New Golden Path’s securities, or subsequently delists its securities from trading, New Golden Path could face significant consequences, including:

The National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996, which is a federal statute, prevents or preempts the states from regulating the sale of certain securities, which are referred to as “covered securities.” Because New Golden Path expects that New Golden Path’s ordinary shares will be listed on Nasdaq, New Golden Path’s ordinary shares will be covered securities. Although the states are preempted from regulating the sale of New Golden Path’s securities, the federal statute does allow the states to investigate companies if there is a suspicion of fraud, and, if there is a finding of fraudulent activity, then the states can regulate or bar the sale of covered securities in a particular case.

You may face difficulties in protecting your interests, and your ability to protect your rights through U.S. courts may be limited, because New Golden Path is incorporated under Cayman Islands law.

New Golden Path is an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands. New Golden Path’s corporate affairs are governed by its memorandum and articles of association, the Companies Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands and the common law of the Cayman Islands. The rights of shareholders to take action against New Golden Path’s directors, actions by New Golden Path’s minority shareholders and the fiduciary duties of New Golden Path’s directors to New Golden Path under Cayman Islands law are to a large extent governed by the common law of the Cayman Islands. The common law of the Cayman Islands is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the Cayman Islands as well as from the common law of England, the decisions of whose courts are of persuasive authority, but are not binding, on a court in the Cayman Islands. The rights of New Golden Path’s shareholders and the fiduciary duties of New Golden Path’s directors under Cayman Islands law are not as clearly established as they would be under statutes or judicial precedent in some jurisdictions in the United States. In particular, the Cayman Islands have a less developed body of securities laws than the United States. Some U.S. states, such as Delaware, have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies of corporate law than the Cayman Islands. In addition, Cayman Islands companies may not have standings to initiate a shareholder derivative action in a federal court of the United States.

Shareholders of Cayman Islands exempted companies like New Golden Path have no general rights under Cayman Islands law to inspect corporate records (save for New Golden Path’s memorandum and articles of association, register of mortgages and charges and any special resolutions of New Golden Path’s shareholders) or to obtain copies of lists of shareholders of these companies. New Golden Path’s directors have discretion under its articles of association that will become effective immediately prior to completion of the Business Combination to determine whether or not, and under what conditions, its corporate records may be inspected by its shareholders, but are not obliged to make them available to its shareholders. This may make it more difficult for you to obtain the information needed to establish any facts necessary for a shareholder motion or to solicit proxies from other shareholders in connection with a proxy contest.

As a result of all of the above, New Golden Path’s public shareholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions taken by New Golden Path’s management, users of the board of directors or controlling shareholders than they would as public shareholders of a company incorporated in the United States.

New Golden Path is a company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, New Golden Path conducts substantially all of its operations in China, and substantially all of New Golden Path’s assets are located in China. In addition, all New Golden Path’s senior executive officers reside within China for a significant portion of the time and most are PRC nationals. As a result, it may be difficult for New Golden Path’s shareholders to effect service of process upon New Golden Path or those persons inside China. In addition, China does not have treaties providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments of courts with the Cayman Islands and many other countries and regions. Therefore, recognition and enforcement in China of judgments of a court in any of these non-PRC jurisdictions in relation to any matter not subject to a binding arbitration provision may be difficult or impossible.

Shareholder claims that are common in the United States, including securities law class actions and fraud claims, generally are difficult to pursue as a matter of law or practicality in China. For example, in China, there are significant legal and other obstacles to obtaining information needed for shareholder investigations or litigation outside China or otherwise with respect to foreign entities. Although the local authorities in China may establish a regulatory cooperation mechanism with the securities regulatory authorities of another country or region to implement cross-border supervision and administration, such regulatory cooperation with the securities regulatory authorities in the Unities States have not been efficient in the absence of mutual and practical cooperation mechanism.

According to Article 177 of the PRC Securities Law, which became effective in March 2020, no overseas securities regulator is allowed to directly conduct investigation or evidence collection activities within the territory of the PRC. Accordingly, without the consent of the competent PRC securities regulators and relevant authorities, no organization or individual may provide the documents and materials relating to securities business activities to overseas parties. See also “Risk Factors — Risk Factors Relating to an Investment in New Golden Path ordinary shares — You may face difficulties in protecting your interests, and your ability to protect your rights through U.S. courts may be limited, because New Golden Path is incorporated under Cayman Islands law.”

Changes in laws or regulations, or a failure to comply with any laws and regulations, may adversely affect New Golden Path’s business, investments and results of operations.

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

Government agencies in jurisdictions where New Golden Path and its affiliates will do business have had an extended focus on issues related to the taxation of multinational corporations. One example is in the area of “base erosion and profit shifting,” including situations where payments are made between affiliates from a jurisdiction with high tax rates to a jurisdiction with lower tax rates. As a result, the tax laws in the countries in which New Golden Path and its affiliates do business could change on a prospective or retroactive basis, and any such changes could adversely affect New Golden Path and its affiliates.

New Golden Path is an emerging growth company within the meaning of the Securities Act, and if New Golden Path takes advantage of certain exemptions from disclosure requirements available to emerging growth companies, this could make New Golden Path’s securities less attractive to investors and may make it more difficult to compare New Golden Path’s performance with other public companies.

New Golden Path is an emerging growth company within the meaning of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act, and New Golden Path may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in New Golden Path periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. As a result, New Golden Path’s shareholders may not have access to certain information they may deem important. New Golden Path could remain an emerging growth company for up to five years from the date of New Golden Path’s IPO, although circumstances could cause New Golden Path to lose that status earlier, including if the market value of New Golden Path ordinary shares held by non-affiliates exceeds $700,000,000 as of any June 30 before that time, in which case New Golden Path would no longer be an emerging growth company as of the following December 31. New Golden Path cannot predict whether investors will find its securities less attractive because New Golden Path will rely on these exemptions. If some investors find New Golden Path’s securities less attractive as a result of its reliance on these exemptions, the trading prices of New Golden Path’s securities may be lower than they otherwise would be, there may be a less active trading market for New Golden Path’s securities and the trading prices of its securities may be more volatile.

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

New Golden Path will continue to incur increased costs as a result of being a public company, particularly after New Golden Path ceases to qualify as an “emerging growth company.”

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as rules subsequently implemented by the SEC and Nasdaq, impose various requirements on the corporate governance practices of public companies. As a company with less than US$1.07 billion in revenues for its last fiscal year, New Golden Path 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 and permission to delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies.

New Golden Path expects these rules and regulations to increase its legal and financial compliance costs and to make some corporate activities more time-consuming and costly. After New Golden Path is no longer an “emerging growth company”, New Golden Path expects to incur significant expenses and devote substantial management effort toward ensuring compliance with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the other rules and regulations of the SEC. For example, as a result of becoming a public company, New Golden Path will need to increase the number of independent directors and adopt policies regarding internal controls and disclosure controls and procedures. New Golden Path also expects that operating as a public company will make it more difficult and more expensive for New Golden Path to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and New Golden Path may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. In addition, New Golden Path will incur additional costs associated with its public company reporting requirements. It may also be more difficult for New Golden Path to find qualified persons to serve on New Golden Path’s board of directors or as executive officers. New Golden Path is currently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to these rules and regulations, and New Golden Path cannot predict or estimate with any degree of certainty the amount of additional costs New Golden Path may incur or the timing of such costs.

In the past, shareholders of a public company often brought securities class action suits against the company following periods of instability in the market price of that company’s securities. If New Golden Path were involved in a class action suit, it could divert a significant amount of its management’s attention and other resources from its business and operations, which could harm its results of operations and require New Golden Path to incur significant expenses to defend the suit. Any such class action suit, whether or not successful, could harm New Golden Path’s reputation and restrict its ability to raise capital in the future. In addition, if a claim is successfully made against New Golden Path, it may be required to pay significant damages, which could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations.

New Golden Path may be or become a PFIC, which could result in adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders.

If New Golden Path is deemed a PFIC for any taxable year (or portion thereof) that is included in the holding period of a U.S. holder (as defined in the section of this prospectus captioned “Income Tax Considerations — Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — U.S. Holders”) of New Golden Path’s ordinary shares, rights or warrants, the U.S. holder may be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences and may be subject to additional reporting requirements. New Golden Path’s PFIC status for its current and subsequent taxable years may depend on whether New Golden Path qualifies for the PFIC start-up exception (see the section of this prospectus/registration statement captioned “Income Tax Considerations — Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — U.S. Holders — Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules”). Depending on the particular circumstances the application of the start-up exception may be subject to uncertainty, and there cannot be any assurance that New Golden Path will qualify for the start-up exception. Accordingly, there can be no assurances with respect to New Golden Path’s status as a PFIC for its current taxable year or any subsequent taxable year. New Golden Path’s actual PFIC status for any taxable year, however, will not be determinable until after the end of such taxable year. Moreover, if New Golden Path determines that it is a PFIC for any taxable year, New Golden Path will endeavor to provide to a U.S. holder such information as the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) may require, including a PFIC annual information statement, in order to enable the U.S. holder to make and maintain a “qualified electing fund” election, but there can be no assurance that New Golden Path will timely provide such required information, and such election would be unavailable with respect to New Golden Path’s warrants in all cases. U.S. holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the possible application of the PFIC rules to holders of New Golden Path’s ordinary shares, rights and warrants. For a more detailed explanation of the tax consequences of PFIC classification to U.S. holders, see the section of this prospectus/registration statement captioned “Income Tax Considerations — Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — U.S. Holders — Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules.”

The following table sets forth the capitalization on an unaudited, historical basis of Golden Path as of June 30, 2021, after giving effect to the Business Combination assuming that (i) no holders of Golden Path ordinary shares exercise their redemption rights, and (ii) that the maximum number of holders of Golden Path ordinary shares have properly exercised their redemption rights.

The discussion in this proxy statement/prospectus of the Business Combination and the principal terms of the Merger Agreement, is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the Merger Agreement. The full text of the Merger Agreement, without certain disclosure schedules and exhibits and the Plan of Merger is attached hereto as Annex A, which is incorporated by reference herein.

The Merger Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants that the respective parties made to each other as of the date of the Merger Agreement or other specific dates. The assertions embodied in those representations, warranties and covenants were made and will be made for purposes of the contract among the respective parties and are subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with negotiating the Merger Agreement. The representations, warranties and covenants in the merger agreement are also modified in important part by the underlying disclosure schedules, which we refer to as the “Schedules,” which are not filed publicly and which may be subject to contractual standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from what may be viewed as material to shareholders. The representations and warranties in the merger agreement and the items listed in the Schedules were used for the purpose of allocating risk among the parties rather than establishing matters as facts.

The Merger Agreement was entered into by and among Golden Path, Golden Path Merger Sub and MC on September 10, 2021. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Golden Path Merger Sub will merge with and into MC, with MC continuing as the Surviving Company and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Golden Path. Golden Path shall continue to be publicly listed and will change its name to “MicroCloud Hologram Inc.” after the consummation of the Business Combination. New Golden Path refers to Golden Path immediately following the consummation of the Business Combination.

The aggregate consideration for the Business Combination is $450,000,000, payable in the form of approximately 44,554,455 newly issued Golden Path ordinary shares issued to MC shareholders. At the closing of the Business Combination, the issued and outstanding shares in MC held by MC shareholders will be cancelled and cease to exist, in exchange for the issue of an aggregate of 44,554,455 New Golden Path Ordinary shares.

Immediately prior to the effective date of the closing of the Business Combination, the board of directors of Golden Path will consist of five members, four of whom will be nominated by MC. In order to continue to satisfy Nasdaq Capital Market listing standards, at least three of the members of the board of directors will be independent in accordance with Nasdaq listing rules. See section titled “New Golden Path’s Directors and Executive Officers after the Business Combination” for additional information.

According to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of New Golden Path, the authorized share capital of New Golden Path will be $50,000 divided into 500,000,000 ordinary shares of par value of $0.0001 each.

After the Business Combination, assuming there is no redemption of Golden Path’s ordinary shares, Golden Path’s current public shareholders will own approximately 11.94% of the issued share capital of New Golden Path, Golden Path’s current directors, officers and affiliates will own approximately 3.27% of the issued share capital of New Golden Path, and MC shareholders will own approximately 84.07% of the issued share capital of New Golden Path. Assuming redemption by holders of 5,750,000 Golden Path’s outstanding ordinary shares, Golden Path’s current public shareholders will own approximately 1.22% of the issued share capital of New Golden Path, Golden Path’s current directors, officers and affiliates will own approximately 3.67% of the issued share capital of New Golden Path, and MC shareholders will own approximately 94.31% of the issued share capital of New Golden Path. Assuming the Business Combination Proposal is approved, Golden Path expects to close the Business Combination by [●], 2022.

The Merger Agreement may be terminated by either Golden Path and Golden Path Merger Sub or MC if Closing has not occurred by March 31, 2022.

Golden Path and Golden Path Merger Sub may terminate the Merger Agreement by written notice to MC if MC has materially breached any covenant, agreement, representations and warranties and failed to cure such breach within 15 days after notification of breach.

MC may terminate the Merger Agreement by written notice to Golden Path and Golden Path Merger Sub if any of them has materially breached any covenant, agreement, representations and warranties and failed to cure such breach within 15 days after notification of breach.

In connection with the transactions, Golden Path and MC shareholders have entered into a registration rights agreement as of September 10, 2021, to provide for the resale registration with respect to the shares issued to MC shareholders (“Reg Rights Holders”) in connection with the Business Combination. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, Golden Path agreed that, within 15 business days after it becomes eligible to use Form S-3 or its successor form, New Golden Path will use its reasonable best efforts to file with the SEC (at its sole cost and expense) a registration statement registering the resale of the securities held by or issuable to the Reg Rights Holders (the “Resale Registration Statement”), and New Golden Path shall use its reasonable best efforts to have the Resale Registration Statement declared effective as soon as reasonably practicable after the filing thereof. In certain circumstances, certain of the Reg Rights Holders can demand up to three underwritten offerings, and all of the Reg Rights Holders will be entitled to piggyback registration rights which rights provide that New Golden Path will include the ordinary shares held by the Reg Rights holders in any registration statement filed by New Golden Path to provide for the registration for resale of such securities.

In connection with the closing of the Merger, Golden Path will enter into a Lock-Up Agreement with each MC shareholder, with respect to certain lock-up arrangements, which will provide that such MC shareholder, will not, within certain period of time from the closing of the Business Combination, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, subject to express carve-outs therein, any of the shares issued in connection with the Business Combination, enter into a transaction that would have the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such shares, whether any of these transactions are to be settled by delivery of any such shares, in cash, or otherwise. The Lock-up Agreement provides that all shares held by the parties to the Lock-up Agreements will be subject to restrictions of sale, transfer or assignment as follows: (A) 50% of the shares until the earlier of (i) six (6) months after the date of the consummation of the Merger or (ii) the date on which the closing price of our ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after the Merger and (B) the remaining 50% of the shares may not be transferred, assigned or sold until six (6) months after the date of the consummation of the Merger.

In connection with the transactions, Golden Path and MC will enter into a Non-competition and Non-solicitation Agreement (the form of which is attached as Exhibit E to the Merger Agreement) with each MC shareholder in favor of Golden Path and MC. Pursuant to these agreements, the MC shareholders shall agree not to compete with MC’s business, nor support any affiliate in competing with MC’s business during the two years following the closing of the Merger. Additionally, none of such persons will encourage, induce or solicit any employee, director or officer of MC to leave MC.

When you consider the recommendation of Golden Path board of directors in favor of approval of the Business Combination Proposal and the other related Proposals, you should keep in mind that Golden Path’s directors and officers have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, your interests as a shareholder, including the following:

The Business Combination will be accounted for as a reverse merger in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Golden Path will be treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. This determination was primarily based on the holders of MC expecting to have a majority of the voting power of the post-combination company, MC senior management comprising all of the senior management of New Golden Path, the relative size of MC compared to Golden Path, and MC operations comprising the ongoing operations of the New Golden Path. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination will be treated as the equivalent of MC issuing shares for the net assets of Golden Path, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Golden Path will be stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination will be those of MC.

Golden Path was formed on May 9, 2018 for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. Entities such as Golden Path as referred to are SPACs or special purpose acquisition companies. Golden Path is an early-stage and emerging growth company and, as such, Golden Path is subject to all of the risks associated with early-stage and emerging growth companies.

Under the Nasdaq listing rules, any SPAC, including Golden Path, can only proceed with a business combination if the SPAC has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 at completion of the transaction. Further, Nasdaq rules require that our business combination must occur with one or more target businesses that together have an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the trust account (excluding taxes payable on the interest earned on the trust account) at the time of our signing a definitive agreement in connection with our business combination. The fair market value of the target or targets will be determined by our board of directors based upon one or more standards generally accepted by the financial community (such as actual and potential sales, earnings, cash flow and/or book value). Although our board of directors will rely on generally accepted standards, our board of directors will have discretion to select the standards employed. In addition, the application of the standards generally involves a substantial degree of judgment. Accordingly, investors will be relying on the business judgment of the board of directors in evaluating the fair market value of the target or targets.

Prior to the consummation of Golden Path’s IPO on June 24, 2021, neither Golden Path, nor anyone on its behalf, had contacted any prospective target business or had any substantive discussions, formal or otherwise, with respect to a transaction with Golden Path.

Immediately after the closing of our IPO transaction, Golden Path formed a search team led by Shaosen Cheng, its Chief Executive Officer, and Teddy Zheng, its Chief Financial Officer, to start screening for target companies. In June 2021, Golden Path engaged Cindy Cao in China to support its management team. Ms. Cindy Cao worked at Standard Chartered and Commonwealth Bank as the finance manager and has 13 years of experience in banking and capital markets. Based on the extensive business connections and industry insights, Golden Path was introduced to various potential acquisition targets that might potentially meet Golden Path management team’s preliminary target selection criteria. Golden Path’s search team reviewed, among others, the financial performance, management team, business industry and a description of each initial candidate. Following such initial review, Golden Path’s search team selected preliminary qualified candidates and continued with second stage review by conducting conference calls and/or on-site visits and in-person meetings with the management of candidates, and collecting more detailed business information from these candidates.

Golden Path reviewed and evaluated the potential targets based on the investment criteria set forth in its IPO prospectus. However, these criteria are not intended to be exhaustive, and Golden Path was looking for factors with respect to potential targets including but not limited to:

Our business strategy was to identify and complete our business combination with one or more entities that meets one or more criteria of:

The following is a brief description of the background of Golden Path’s search and discussion with various potential target companies.

From the closing date of Golden Path’s IPO through September 10, 2021, the execution date of the Merger Agreement with MC, Golden Path considered a number of potential target companies with the objective of consummating a business combination. Golden Path’s representatives contacted and were contacted by a number of individuals and entities who offered to present ideas and opportunities for a business combination, including financial advisors and companies that have their operations in either the United States, Europe or Asia. Golden Path compiled a list of high priority potential targets and updated and supplemented such list from time to time. Such list was periodically shared, in depth, with the Golden Path’s Board.

From June 2021 to September 2021, Golden Path held many internal meetings to discuss preliminary candidates. At each meeting, Golden Path reviewed and discussed the qualifications of those candidates and prioritized companies based on the criteria described above. After reviewing over 40 potential targets, and holding discussions with their respective management, Golden Path provided an initial non-binding indication of interest to 5 potential acquisition targets before Golden Path identified MC as a preferred acquisition target.

Company A: In June 2021, Company A, which is not affiliated with Golden Path or to any affiliated business entities of Golden Path, was referred to Golden Path’s search team. Company A is a top vibrant and trustworthy social community platform focusing on medical aesthetic treatment and products in China. On June 30, 2021, after reviewing business introduction and models of Company A, and discussing with the management of Company A, Golden Path’s management team established Company A as a merger candidate based upon a preliminary due diligence review. Subsequently, Golden Path entered into a letter of intent with Company A on July 5, 2021. Golden Path later conducted additional due diligence on Company A from July 2021 through August 2021 reviewing Company A’s information as it became available. In September 2021, Golden Path removed Company A from the priority list of candidates because Company A’s valuation is much higher than fair market price as evaluated by Golden Path’s team and is much higher than we anticipated.

Company B: In July 2021, Company B, which is not affiliated with Golden Path or any affiliated business entities, was referred to Golden Path’s search team through a financial advisor for Company B. Company B is a human resource company focusing on flexible employment in China, which has worked with a few top-notch companies in China in hiring professionals.

An introduction call held was among all the parties, Mr. Shaosen Cheng, CEO of Golden Path and Mr. Teddy Zheng, CFO of Golden Path, attended the meeting.

On July 12, 2021, a kick-off meeting was held between Golden Path and MC, and Mr. Guohui Kang, MC’s CEO, delivered a detailed presentation of the company to Golden Path’s management team. Golden Path believed the management team of MC was sophisticated with many years’ experiences in the industry. Immediately after the meeting, MC sent their Business Presentation to Golden Path’s management. Golden Path’s management team discussed the merits and characteristics of a potential business combination with MC and sent an NDA and a due diligence list to MC as well.

On the same day, Golden Path and MC entered into an NDA that allowed Golden Path to receive and evaluate detailed materials and information of MC.

On July 14, 2021, response to the due diligence list was sent by MC, including most materials requested by Golden Path’s management team. At the same time, MC immediately set up a data room and granted Golden Path access to its data-room, where MC’s detailed annual and interim reports, summarized financial information, legal documents, material agreements and business forecasting of MC were located.

From July 14, 2021 to July 18, 2021, Golden Path conducted due diligence, reviewing the materials and documents provided by MC. Golden Path also had a series of conference calls with MC management regarding the issues identified during the due diligence and the proposed merger. Based on the materials provided, Golden Path put forward a further request for some supplementary materials, mainly focusing on the material contracts and the development plan of the business.

During that same period, Golden Path also had a number of internal calls among its management and board members to discuss the proposed transaction with MC. Throughout these negotiations, Golden Path’s management reported to its Board of Directors on the status of such discussions.

On July 19, 2021, MC sent its latest full version business presentation to Golden Path so that it may better understand MC’s business and to engage in further discussion with respect to a potential business combination. On the same day, Golden Path hired Deheng Law Firm (“Deheng”) to conduct Chinese legal due diligence on MC.

On July 22, 2021, Golden Path hired Valtech Valuation Advisory Limited (“Valtech”) as the independent valuation advisory, to provide valuation advice to the Board of Directors of Golden Path in connection with the proposed merger with MC.

Also, MC, together with DLA Piper UK LLP (“DLA”), its US counsel, conducted due diligence on Golden Path, including a review of its public filings and interview with Golden Path’s management.

Golden Path conducted its own preliminary analysis and deemed the proposed valuation to be acceptable, subject to further due diligence and a fairness opinion prepared by a reputable, independent valuation expert selected by Golden Path and reasonably acceptable to MC. The reason Golden Path’s Board of Directors decided to obtain a fairness opinion was because they determined that it was prudent and in the best interests of Golden Path and its shareholders to engage an independent valuation consultant with relevant experiences to provide a professional opinion as to whether the transaction is fair to all shareholders of Golden Path by providing its insightful view of the potential valuation of MC. Golden Path engaged Valtech as a consultant to assist Golden Path in evaluating MC’s fair enterprise value.

MC provided additional materials requested by Golden Path’s team and Deheng, and addressed the follow up questions from these parties in the following days. Golden Path had a series of internal discussions and also had a bunch of conference calls with MC management regarding issues identified in the due diligence and the proposed merger.

On July 29, 2021, Golden Path, MC, Becker & Poliakoff LLP (“Becker”), Golden Path’s US counsel, and DLA held a conference call, discussing the outstanding terms of LOI listed above. In addition, Golden Path made it clear in the LOI that signing a definitive merger agreement would be subject to the satisfactory completion of the due diligence.

In the following days, Golden Path and MC had multiple discussions, where the parties negotiated the outstanding terms of the Business Combination. MC requested to reduce the number of board of directors for the combined company as proposed by Golden Path, and requested to reduce the number of shares to be put in escrow for indemnification.

On July 31, 2021, DLA proposed a revised LOI reflecting result from the negotiation including the reducing the board of directors proposed by Golden Path from two to one after the business combination, cancellation of equity incentive plan, stated that each Golden Path and MC will be responsible for and pay its own transaction expenses incurred, and addition obligations of regulatory and other approvals and fillings.

Basis for Golden Path Board of Directors’ Recommendation — Fairness Opinion

Valtech Valuation Advisory Limited delivered a written fairness opinion on September 10, 2021 about the fairness of the merger transaction from a financial point of view. Valtech understood that MC and Golden Path have entered into a LOI dated August 3, 2021, whereby Golden Path will acquire 100% of the outstanding equity and equity equivalents of the MC (including options, warrants or other securities that have the right to acquire or convert into equity securities of the Company), or all of MC’s business in the capital of MC, by means of Golden Path will continue as the ongoing public entity. Valtech has undertaken an investigation and analysis to express an independent opinion of the market value of 100% equity interest in MC as at June 30, 2021. Valtech understood that pursuant to the Agreement, the total consideration provided to or for the benefit of the MC or MC shareholders (excluding any convertible debt or other new equity financing into the Company), as applicable, in the Business Combination is based on a total equity value of MC of US$ 450,000,000. The opinion of the 100% equity interest in MC was developed through the application of an income approach known as discount cash flow methodology and market approach. Under these methods, the equity result depends on the present worth of future economic benefits to be derived from the projected sales income. Indication of the result is developed by discounting projected future net cash flows available for payment of shareholders’ interest to their present worth. Valtech has also reviewed information prepared by MC and relevant operational information regarding the subject business from public sources which relied to a considerable extent on such information in arriving the opinion of value. A copy of the Fairness Opinion is attached to the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus as Annex D.

In addition to the foregoing factors, the Board of Directors of Golden Path also considered the fairness opinion and supporting analysis provided by an independent valuation consultancy, Valtech Valuation Advisory Limited. Valtech provides business valuation and transaction advisory services in connection with financings, and mergers and acquisitions for both public and private companies to institutions and individuals. Valtech’s team is experienced in providing valuation advice to over 250 listed companies in Hong Kong, China, Singapore, Taiwan, Australia, the United Kingdom, the United States and Germany. Valtech was selected to provide the opinion based on their experience in and knowledge of the hologram industry and their ability to complete the assignment in a timely manner. Pursuant to a letter agreement dated July 22, 2021, Golden Path retained Valtech to provide a fairness opinion to the Board of Directors of Golden Path in connection with the proposed merger with MC. On August 3, 2021, the Board of Directors held a Zoom conference call meeting with Valtech to review their analysis, discuss the valuation in the LOI and proposed some suggestions in selecting the comparable companies. On August 12, 2021, the Board of Directors held a Zoom conference call meeting with Valtech to discuss the market and income approach results and the adjustments for the comparable companies. From August 13, 2021 to September 8, 2021, a few conference calls held between Mr. Teddy Zheng and Valtech team to discuss the suitable comparable companies and the valuation model. On September 9, 2021, a conference call meeting was held between the Board of Directors and Valtech to review their analysis of the fairness opinion in connection with the proposed merger with MC. Following the meeting, Valtech rendered its opinion letter to the Board that, as of September 10, 2021, the date of the opinion letter, and based upon and subject to the factors and assumptions set forth therein, that the consideration to be paid by the Company in connection with the Business Combination pursuant to the Merger Agreement is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Company and its shareholders.

In connection with rendering the opinion described above and performing its related financial analyses, Valtech reviewed and performed the following, among other things:

Valtech also held discussions with the management of both Golden Path and MC regarding their assessment of past and current business operations, financial condition and future prospects.

For purposes of rendering the fairness opinion described above, Valtech relied upon and assumed the accuracy and completeness of all of the financial, legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, and other information provided to, discussed with or reviewed by Valtech, without assuming any responsibility for independent verification thereof. In that regard, Valtech assumed that the forecasts provided were reasonably prepared on a basis reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments of Golden Path’s and MC’s management. Valtech also assumed that the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement will be consummated on the terms set forth in the Merger Agreement, without the waiver or modification of any term or condition, the effect of which would be in any way meaningful to its analysis.

Valtech’s opinion does not address the underlying business decision of Golden Path to engage in the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement, or the relative merits of the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement as compared to any strategic alternatives that may be available to Golden Path, nor does it address any legal, regulatory, tax or accounting matters. Valtech expressed no opinion or view as to any terms or other aspects of the Business Combination, including, without limitation, the form or structure of the Business Combination or any ongoing obligations of the parties pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Valtech’s opinion addresses only the fairness, from a financial point of view, to the holders of Golden Path as of September 10, 2021, of the Merger Consideration to be paid to the shareholders of MC pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Valtech’s opinion was necessarily based on economic, monetary, market, and other conditions as in effect on, and the information made available to Valtech as of, the date of the opinion and Valtech assumed no responsibility for updating, revising or reaffirming its opinion based on circumstances, developments or events occurring after the date of its opinion. The issuance of Valtech’s opinion was approved by a fairness opinion review committee of Valtech.

The following is a summary of the material financial analyses delivered by Valtech to the Board of Directors of Golden Path in connection with rendering the fairness opinion described above. The following summary, however, does not purport to be a complete description of the financial analyses performed by Valtech, nor does the order of analyses described represent the relative importance or weight given to those analyses by Valtech. The financial analyses summarized below include information presented in tabular format. In order to fully understand the financial analyses performed by Valtech, the tables must be read together with the text of each summary. The tables alone do not constitute a complete description of the financial analyses performed by Valtech. Considering the data set forth in the tables below without considering the full narrative description of the financial analyses, including the methodologies and assumptions underlying the analyses, could create a misleading or incomplete view of the financial analyses performed by Valtech. Except as otherwise noted, the following information, to the extent that it is based on market data, is based on market data as it existed on or before September 10, 2021, the date of the opinion letter and is not necessarily indicative of current market conditions.

Valtech primarily used three customary approaches in conducting its analyses and arriving at its opinion, including a comparison to guideline public companies, a comparison to guideline transactions, and discounted cash flow analyses.

In determining the market multiple, a list of comparable companies was identified. The selection criteria include: the companies derive most, if not all, of their revenues from the same industry or closely related industry of the MC, and the comparable companies which are publicly listed in the US and searchable in Bloomberg.

The details of the comparable companies which are considered as fair and representative samples are listed below:

For purposes of the analysis, Valtech analyzed the following trading statistics for each of the select guideline public companies for comparison purposes and to assess the value of MC. Price/Sales Ratios (“P/S”), as a multiple of Trailing 12-month (TTM). The selected companies and their financial metrics were:

After taking into consideration the comparative data for the selected guideline public companies and MC, appropriate valuation discounts and adjustments, Valtech used median multiples including appropriate discounts and adjustments and applied them to MC’s 2020 results and 2021 forecasts. This analysis resulted in a wide range of equity interest values. With the Median ratio at a EV/Revenue of 14.34 multiple, the valuation of MC seemed fair and reasonable and may bring potentially increased value to Golden Path’ shareholders.

No company in the Valtech’s analysis is identical or directly comparable to MC, therefore an evaluation of the results of this analysis is not entirely mathematical. Rather, Valtech’s analysis involves complex considerations and judgments concerning differences in financial and operating characteristics and other factors that could affect the public trading or other values of the companies to which MC was compared.

Discounted Cash Flow Analysis — Using forecasts provided by MC management for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 through 2025, Valtech performed discounted cash flow analyses to calculate the estimated present value of the standalone unlevered, after-tax free cash flows forecasted to be generated by MC for the forecast period.

Valtech calculated terminal values for MC by applying the median revenue and EBITDA transaction multiples to terminal year estimated unlevered, after-tax free cash flows. The unlevered free cash flows and terminal values were then discounted to present value using discount rates of 17.0%, which were based on an estimate of MC’s weighted average cost of capital, or discount rate.

Based on Valtech’s experience and judgment in performing valuation analyses and the greater availability and relevancy of revenue multiple data derived from transactions, Valtech relied more on its revenue multiple analyses to measure the intrinsic value of the equity.

Valtech’s analysis resulted in the equity values of $460.54 million, which support the consideration contemplated in the Merger Agreement.

The following is a summary of the material financial analyses reviewed by Golden Path in connection with the valuation of MC. The summary set forth below does not purport to be a complete description of the financial analyses reviewed or factors considered by us nor does the order of the financial analyses described represent the relative importance or weight given to those financial analyses reviewed by the Board of Directors. We may have deemed various assumptions more or less probable than other assumptions, so the reference ranges resulting from any particular portion of the analyses summarized below should not be taken to be our view of the actual value of MC.

Golden Path reviewed certain financial information of MC and the structure of the proposed Business Combination. Golden Path also reviewed the analyses described above that were prepared by Valtech, which included a financial review of certain publicly-traded companies selected by Valtech for the reasons discussed above in the guidelines public company and guideline transaction analyses. The identity of the companies that were evaluated in Valtech’s analyses is provided above. Golden Path’s Board of Directors had a series of conference call discussions and meetings from July 2021 to September 2021 and reviewed MC management’s forecast and its existing business and business plan. Golden Path engaged Valtech to undertake multiple analyses of MC and the opportunity presented by the Business Combination, including a guideline public company analysis and a discounted cash-flow analysis, each as discussed in greater detail above and Golden Path reviewed and relied on such analyses.

The projections regarding MC’s future performance and the review by Golden Path’s Board of Directors reflect and consider numerous assumptions made by MC management, including material assumptions regarding, among other things,

The MC projections were prepared during the months of March and April 2021 by taking into account the following:

The competitive landscape was analyzed, to assess the addressable market and to forecast the future various applications. The timeframe leading out to 2025 was selected through an analysis of: (i) recent market trends, (ii) the increasing application scenarios of holographic technology service, and (iii) market consolidation in the holographic technology service. The goal was to use a timeframe that led to a more stable, mature and predictable business landscape.

Based on the above, MC maintains a 5-year business plan on a rolling basis. MC analyzes the discrepancies every twelve months, if any, between actual and forecast and it calibrates the 5-year business plan, accordingly.

During the fourth quarters of 2020, MC experienced strong growth in hologram services revenues. As for the projections, the rapid increase in revenues is mainly driven by the expectation that such growth will continue and the continuing growth in the hologram services provided to holographic services and Advanced Driver Assistance System (“ADAS”) market.

For purposes of evaluating MC’s financial condition and in connection with the preparation by MC of its projections, Golden Path management was provided with documents from MC including projections for various time periods, including for the years ended December 31, 2021 through 2025, copies of material contracts, summaries of various industry analysis and trends and forecasts, information related to governmental regulations which may affect payments and collections rates and information related past performance. Additionally, the Board of Golden Path reviewed and discussed with Valtech its analysis in rendering the fairness opinion described above.

MC provided Golden Path with its internally prepared forecasts for each of the calendar years in the five years period ending December 31, 2025. Golden Path and MC do not, as a matter of general practice, publicly disclose long-term forecasts or internal projections of their future performance, revenue, financial condition or other results. However, in connection with the proposed Business Combination, management of MC prepared the financial projections set forth below to present key elements of the forecasts provided to Golden Path. Golden Path is including the following summary of certain MC internal, unaudited prospective financial information from MC’s management team’s projections for New Golden Path solely because that information was made available to Golden Path’s Board in connection with the evaluation of the Business Combination. The non-public unaudited prospective financial information provided by MC’s management was prepared as part of MC’s overall process of analyzing various strategic initiatives, and were not prepared for, or with a view toward, public disclosure or to comply with the guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants for preparation and presentation of prospective financial information, published guidelines of the SEC regarding projections, or generally accepted accounting principles. MC does not, as a matter of course, publicly disclose forecasts or internal projections as to future performance, earnings, or other results due to, among other reasons, the inherent uncertainty of the underlying assumptions and estimates, the risk that they will prove incorrect and the inherent difficulty of accurately predicting financial performance for future periods.

The inclusion of financial projections in this proxy statement should not be regarded as an indication that Golden Path, MC, their respective boards of directors, or their respective affiliates, advisors or other representatives considered, or now consider, such financial projections necessarily to be predictive of actual future results or to support or fail to support your decision whether to vote for or against the Business Combination Proposal. Although presented with numeric specificity, the unaudited prospective financial information reflects numerous estimates and assumptions of MC’s management made at the time they were prepared and assume execution of various strategic initiatives. You are cautioned that the projections solely represent MC’s best efforts in predicting future operating results, which means MC made numerous estimates and assumptions at the time these projections were prepared and must be considered in that light, including the possibility that actual results may differ profoundly from projections due to various uncertainties, which could cause such estimates and assumptions made by MC to fail. As a result, in making a decision regarding the Business Combination, shareholders must understand and take into account that these projections may be materially different than actual results. Golden Path does not intend to reference these financial projections in its future periodic reports filed with the SEC under the Exchange Act.

The financial projections reflect numerous estimates and assumptions concerning general business, economic, industry, regulatory, market and financial conditions and trends and other future events, as well as matters specific to MC’s business, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond MC’s and Golden Path’s control. The financial projections are forward-looking statements that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond Golden Path’s and MC’s control and MC’s limited operating history, diverse geographic markets and nascent industry make evaluating its business and prospects, including the assumptions and analyses developed by MC upon which operating and financial results forecast rely, difficult and uncertain. These and the other estimates and assumptions underlying the financial forecasts involve judgments concerning, among other things, the future interest rate environment and other economic, competitive, regulatory, and financial market conditions and future business decisions that may not be realized and that are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, and regulatory uncertainties and contingencies, including, among other things, the inherent uncertainty of the business and economic conditions affecting the industry in which MC operates. The various risks and uncertainties include risks set forth in the sections entitled “Risk Factors,” all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are outside the control of MC and will be beyond the control of New Golden Path. As a result, there can be no assurance that the projected results will be realized or that actual results will not be significantly higher or lower than projected, whether or not the merger is completed. Further, these assumptions and the financial forecasts may otherwise be affected by MC’s ability to achieve its strategic goals, objectives and targets over the applicable periods and do not include all potential actions that management could or might have taken during these periods. Since the financial projections cover multiple years, such information by its nature becomes less reliable with each successive year. These financial projections are subjective in many respects and thus are susceptible to multiple interpretations and periodic revisions based on experience and business developments.

The financial forecasts prepared by management of Golden Path and MC were not prepared with a view toward public disclosure nor prepared with a view toward compliance with the guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants for preparation and presentation of prospective financial information, or following GAAP. Neither the independent registered public accounting firm of MC nor of Golden Path nor any other independent accountant has audited, reviewed, compiled, examined or performed any procedures concerning the unaudited prospective financial information for its inclusion in this proxy statement, and accordingly, neither independent registered public accounting firm nor any other independent accountant expresses an opinion or provides any form of assurance with respect thereto. Due to inherent uncertainties in financial projections of any kind, shareholders are cautioned not to place undue reliance, if any, on the forecasts.

Neither Golden Path nor MC have warranted the accuracy, reliability, appropriateness or completeness of the projections to anyone, including to our Board. Neither Golden Path, Golden Path’s management nor any of Golden Path or MC’s representatives have made or make any representation to any person regarding the ultimate performance of New Golden Path compared to the information contained in the projections, and none of them intend to or undertake any obligation to update or otherwise revise the projections to reflect circumstances existing after the date when made or to reflect the occurrence of future events if that any or all of the assumptions underlying the projections are shown to be in error. Accordingly, the projections should not be looked upon as “guidance” of any sort. MC will not refer back to these projections in its future periodic reports filed under the Exchange Act.

While the financial projections set reflect Golden Path’s and MC’s good faith beliefs, they are not guarantees of future performance. There may be differences between actual and projected results, and the differences may be material. The risk that these uncertainties and contingencies could cause the assumptions to fail to be reflective of actual results is further increased by the length of time over which these assumptions apply. The failure to achieve assumptions and projections in early periods could have a compounding effect on the projections shown for the later periods. Thus, any such failure of an assumption or projection to be reflective of actual results in an early period could have a greater effect on the projected results failing to be reflective of actual events in later periods. Golden Path and MC each disclaims any obligation to publicly update or revise to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, new information, data or methods, future events or other changes after the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, except as required by applicable law. For a further discussion of these and other factors that could cause the Company’s and New Golden Path’s future results, performance or transactions to differ significantly from those expressed in any forecasts, please see the section titled “Risk Factors.” You should not place undue reliance on any such forecasts, which are based only on information currently available to Golden Path and MC.

EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS, BY INCLUDING IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT A SUMMARY OF THE FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS FOR MC, GOLDEN PATH UNDERTAKES NO OBLIGATIONS AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY RESPONSIBILITY TO UPDATE OR REVISE, OR PUBLICLY DISCLOSE ANY UPDATE OR REVISION TO, THESE FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS TO REFLECT CIRCUMSTANCES OR EVENTS, INCLUDING UNANTICIPATED EVENTS, THAT MAY HAVE OCCURRED OR THAT MAY OCCUR AFTER THE PREPARATION OF THESE FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS, EVEN IF ANY OR ALL OF THE ASSUMPTIONS UNDERLYING THE FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS ARE SHOWN TO BE IN ERROR OR CHANGE.

Financial measures provided to a financial advisor in connection with a business combination transaction are excluded from the definition of non-GAAP financial measures and therefore are not subject to SEC rules regarding disclosures of non-GAAP financial measures, which would otherwise require a reconciliation of a non-GAAP financial measure to a GAAP financial measure. Accordingly, we have not provided a reconciliation of such financial measures.

In light of the foregoing factors and the uncertainties inherent in these projections, shareholders are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these projections.

The key elements of the projections provided by MC’s management team to Golden Path are summarized in the table below with specific assumptions immediately following the table:

The number of MC’s customers increased representing an increase of 97.5% from 2019 to 2020. MC’s average customer revenue increased with a growth rate of 43.8% from 2019 to 2020.

Expectation: according to the above customer growth, MC’s forecast for the period from 2021 to 2025 assumes that the annual growth rate of customer number is 38% and the average annual growth rate of customer revenue is 10%.

Revenue assumption: the estimated revenue is based on the actual results in 2020. MC’s estimated revenue is the product of the number of customers and the average revenue of customers.

Actual historical results in 2020: for 2020, MC’s revenue comes from providing holographic technology services and holographic solutions for users. MC determines that the actual average revenue of each customer is RMB 1.61 million, and the actual number of customers is 134. As of December 31, 2020, the cumulative net income generated by the above data is RMB 220 million.

Forecast: MC’s forecast assumptions for the period from 2021 to 2025. According to the above assumptions, the annual revenue will increase to RMB 1.7 billion by December 31, 2025. It is expected that the revenue will grow rapidly from 2021 to 2025, with a CAGR of 51.81%.

MC has made several acquisitions in 2020, which would contribute to the revenue growth. MC acquired Shenzhen Bowei in 2020 and entered the autopilot industry. Shenzhen Bowei is one of the suppliers of an internationally famous automobile manufacturer. It will bring huge revenue growth to the company. MC acquired Shenzhen Tianyuemeng in 2020, bringing a large number of customers to MC’s holographic technology services.

MC has signed long-term strategic cooperation agreements with many customers. The signing of this strategic cooperation agreement is conducive to strengthening the business relationship between MC and customers, realizing the deep resource integration and cooperation between the two sides in project resources, business operation and industry information exchange, and expanding the layout of MC in the holographic industry on the basis of consolidating MC holographic technology service business. This strategic cooperation is expected to have a positive impact on MC’s future revenue growth and ensure the stability of MC’s business revenue.

The expected growth rate is lower than the historical growth rate in 2019-2020. MC’s operating revenue in 2019 was RMB 75.61 million and in 2020 was RMB 210 million, with an increase rate of 185%. MC’s net profit in 2019 was RMB 9.45 million and that in 2020 was RMB 32.86 million, with a growth rate of 247%.

The expected growth rate is lower than the expected annual growth rate of the holographic technology services industry, as estimated by the iResearch Consulting Group. According to the report of iResearch consulting, the scale of China’s holographic technology service market will be RMB 6.4 billion in 2020. It is expected that the total market scale will grow rapidly to RMB 70.5 billion in 2025, and the compound annual growth rate from 2020 to 2025 will be 61.7%.

The market size of holographic digital twin technology service industry in China is expected to grow from RMB 0.5 billion in 2020 to RMB 22.3 billion in 2025 with a CAGR of 115.8%.

The market size of holographic ADAS technology service industry in China is expected to reach RMB 16.8 billion in 2025 from RMB 0.6 billion in 2020, representing a CAGR of 94.5%.

There are three major drivers that stimulated the rapid growth of the holographic industry. First, the advanced development of chips enabled faster computing speed, which led to more innovative holographic technologies. Second, the new 5G network enhanced the network speed, which enabled the application of holographic technologies in industries that have high requirement on network. Last, the government also provided strong support to the industries by providing several favorable policies.

In the future, several trends would further support the growth of the holographic technology services. ADAS technology is expected to remain as one of the most important areas for holographic industry. In current state, there are no intelligent and effective way to present the information generated from the sensors. Holographic technology would be the best method to display that information to the drivers. The other viable development trends include Internet of Vehicles, constructions, industrial inspection, smart city, healthcare and entertainment.

The following is a general discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the (i) ownership and disposition of New Golden Path ordinary shares and New Golden Path Warrants (collectively, the “New Golden Path securities”) following the Business Combination and (ii) exercise of redemption rights by New Golden Path shareholders that are U.S. Holders.

This discussion is based on provisions of the Code, the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (whether final, temporary, or proposed), administrative rulings of the IRS, and judicial decisions, all as in effect on the date hereof, and all of which are subject to differing interpretations or change, possibly with retroactive effect. This discussion does not purport to be a complete analysis or listing of all potential U.S. federal income tax considerations that may apply to a holder as a result of the ownership and disposition of New Golden Path securities. In addition, this discussion does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to particular holders nor does it take into account the individual facts and circumstances of any particular holder that may affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such holder, and accordingly, is not intended to be, and should not be construed as, tax advice. This discussion does not address the U.S. federal 3.8% Medicare tax imposed on certain net investment income or any aspects of U.S. federal taxation other than those pertaining to the income tax, nor does it address any tax consequences arising under any U.S. state and local, or non-U.S. tax laws. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding such tax consequences in light of their particular circumstances.

No ruling has been requested or will be obtained from the IRS regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Business Combination or any other related matter; thus, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge the U.S. federal income tax treatment described below or that, if challenged, such treatment will be sustained by a court.

This summary is limited to considerations relevant to U.S. Holders that hold New Golden Path securities, as “capital assets” within the meaning of section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be important to holders in light of their individual circumstances, including holders subject to special treatment under the U.S. tax laws, such as, for example:

As used in this proxy statement/prospectus, the term “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of New Golden Path securities, that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

If a partnership, including for this purpose any entity or arrangement that is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, holds New Golden Path securities, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in such partnership will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. A holder that is a partnership and the partners in such partnership should consult their own tax advisors with regard to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the subsequent ownership and disposition of New Golden Path securities.

THIS SUMMARY DOES NOT PURPORT TO BE A COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OR DESCRIPTION OF ALL POTENTIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF HOLDING THE NEW GOLDEN PATH SECURITIES. NEW GOLDEN PATH shareholders SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF NEW GOLDEN PATH SECURITIES, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECTS OF U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, AND OTHER TAX LAWS.

The parties have structured the merger to be treated as a “reorganization” for U.S. federal income tax purposes within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and the parties to the Business Combination Agreement have agreed to report the merger in a manner consistent with such tax treatment to the extent permitted under applicable law. Neither Golden Path nor MC has requested, and neither intends to request, any ruling from the IRS as to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the merger. Furthermore, the obligations of MC and Golden Path to complete the merger are not conditioned on the receipt of opinions from counsel to the effect that the merger will qualify as a reorganization for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Consequently, no assurance can be given that the IRS will not assert, or that a court would not sustain, a position contrary to any of those set forth below. Accordingly, each U.S. Holders are urged to consult its tax advisor with respect to the particular tax consequence of the merger to it.

Assuming the merger is treated as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, a U.S. Holder that exchanges its MC shares for New Golden Path ordinary shares in the merger generally will not recognize gain or loss in the transaction.

The aggregate tax basis in the New Golden Path ordinary shares that a U.S. Holder receives pursuant to the merger will equal its aggregate adjusted tax basis in the MC shares it surrenders. A U.S. Holder’s holding period for the New Golden Path ordinary shares that it receives pursuant to the merger will include the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the MC shares it surrenders.

If the merger does not qualify as a reorganization, each U.S. Holder will recognize gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between (x) the fair market value of the New Golden Path ordinary shares received and (y) the adjusted tax basis in the MC shares surrendered. Gain or loss will be calculated separately for each block of MC ordinary shares (generally shares acquired at the same cost in a single transaction) surrendered. Such gain or loss generally will be capital gain or loss, and will be long-term capital gain or loss if a U.S. Holder has held its MC shares for more than one year at the time of the merger. Long-term capital gains of non-corporate U.S. Holders may be eligible for reduced rates of taxation. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. A U.S. Holder generally will have an aggregate tax basis in the New Golden Path shares received equal to the fair market value of such shares as of the date such shares are received, and the U.S. Holder’s holding period in such New Golden Path shares would begin on the day following the date of the merger.

Certain information reporting requirements may apply to each U.S. Holder that is a “significant holder” of MC ordinary shares. A “significant holder” is a holder of MC ordinary shares that, immediately before the merger, owned at least 1% (by vote or value) of the outstanding MC ordinary shares (or, in certain instances, MC ordinary shares with a basis of at least $1 million). U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors as to the potential application of these information reporting requirements.

All holders of MC shares are urged to consult their tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences of the merger in their particular circumstances, including tax return reporting requirements, the applicability and effect of the alternative minimum tax, any federal tax laws other than those pertaining to income tax (including estate and gift tax laws), and any state, local, foreign or other tax laws.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of Ownership and Disposition of New Golden Path Securities

The following discussion is a summary of certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of New Golden Path securities to U.S. Holders.

Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below “— Passive Foreign Investment Company Status,” the gross amount of any distribution on New Golden Path ordinary shares that is made out of New Golden Path’s current and accumulated profits (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) will generally be taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary dividend income on the date such distribution is actually or constructively received by such U.S. Holder. Any such dividends paid to corporate U.S. Holders generally will not qualify for the dividends-received deduction that may otherwise be allowed under the Code.

Dividends received by non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, from a “qualified foreign corporation” may be eligible for reduced rates of taxation, provided that certain holding period requirements and other conditions are satisfied. For these purposes, a non-U.S. corporation will be treated as a qualified foreign corporation with respect to dividends paid by that corporation on shares that are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. U.S. Treasury Department guidance indicates that shares listed on the Nasdaq (on which New Golden Path lists the New Golden Path ordinary shares) will be considered readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. Even though the New Golden Path ordinary shares are listed on the Nasdaq, there can be no assurance that the New Golden Path ordinary shares will be considered readily tradable on an established securities market in future years. Non-corporate U.S. Holders that do not meet a minimum holding period requirement or that elect to treat the dividend income as “investment income” pursuant to Section 163(d)(4) of the Code (dealing with the deduction for investment interest expense) will not be eligible for the reduced rates of taxation regardless of New Golden Path’s status as a qualified foreign corporation. In addition, the rate reduction will not apply to dividends if the recipient of a dividend is obligated to make related payments with respect to positions in substantially similar or related property. This disallowance applies even if the minimum holding period has been met. Finally, New Golden Path will not constitute a qualified foreign corporation for purposes of these rules if it is a PFIC for the taxable year in which it pays a dividend or for the preceding taxable year. See the discussion below under “— Passive Foreign Investment Company Status.”

The amount of any dividend paid in foreign currency will be the U.S. dollar value of the foreign currency distributed by New Golden Path, calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the date the dividend is includible in the U.S. Holder’s income, regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt. Generally, a U.S. Holder should not recognize any foreign currency gain or loss if the foreign currency is converted into U.S. dollars on the date the payment is received. However, any gain or loss resulting from currency exchange fluctuations during the period from the date the U.S. Holder includes the dividend payment in income to the date such U.S. Holder actually converts the payment into U.S. dollars will be treated as ordinary income or loss. That currency exchange income or loss (if any) generally will be income or loss from U.S. sources for foreign tax credit limitation purposes.

To the extent that the amount of any distribution made by New Golden Path on the New Golden Path ordinary shares exceeds New Golden Path’s current and accumulated earnings and profits for a taxable year (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles), the distribution will first be treated as a tax-free return of capital, causing a reduction in the adjusted basis of the U.S. Holder’s New Golden Path ordinary shares, and to the extent the amount of the distribution exceeds the U.S. Holder’s tax basis, the excess will be taxed as capital gain recognized on a sale or exchange as described below under “— Sale, Exchange, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition of New Golden Path Securities.” However, New Golden Path may not calculate earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles. In such event, a U.S. Holder should expect to generally treat distributions New Golden Path makes as dividends.

Sale, Exchange, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition of New Golden Path Securities

Subject to the discussion below under “— Passive Foreign Investment Company Status,” a U.S. Holder will generally recognize gain or loss on any sale, exchange, redemption, or other taxable disposition of New Golden Path ordinary shares and New Golden Path Warrants in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized on the disposition and such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such New Golden Path ordinary shares or New Golden Path Warrants. Any gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder on a taxable disposition of New Golden Path ordinary shares or New Golden Path Warrants will generally be capital gain or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the holder’s holding period in the New Golden Path ordinary shares or New Golden Path Warrants exceeds one year at the time of the disposition. Preferential tax rates may apply to long-term capital gains of non-corporate U.S. Holders (including individuals). The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Any gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder on the sale or exchange of New Golden Path ordinary shares or New Golden Path Warrants will generally be treated as U.S. source gain or loss.

No new Golden Path warrants or options will be used in connection with the Business combination. In connection with its IPO completed on June 24, 2021, Golden Path issued warrants to acquire ordinary shares. These IPO related warrants will remain outstanding, except to the extent exercised pursuant to their terms by the holders. This discussion below refers to these warrants as New Golden Path Warrant. Except as discussed below with respect to the cashless exercise of a New Golden Path Warrant, a U.S. Holder generally will not recognize gain or loss upon the acquisition of a New Golden Path ordinary share on the exercise of a New Golden Path Warrant for cash. A U.S. Holder’s tax basis in a New Golden Path ordinary share received upon exercise of the New Golden Path Warrant generally will be an amount equal to the sum of the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the New Golden Path Warrant exchanged therefor and the exercise price. The U.S. Holder’s holding period for a New Golden Path ordinary share received upon exercise of the New Golden Path Warrant will begin on the date following the date of exercise (or possibly the date of exercise) of the New Golden Path Warrants and will not include the period during which the U.S. Holder held the New Golden Path Warrants. If a New Golden Path Warrant is allowed to lapse unexercised, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize a capital loss equal to such holder’s tax basis in the New Golden Path Warrant.

The tax consequences of a cashless exercise of a warrant are not clear under current tax law. A cashless exercise may be tax-free, either because the exercise is not a gain realization event or because the exercise is treated as a recapitalization for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In either tax-free situation, a U.S. Holder’s basis in the New Golden Path ordinary shares received would equal the holder’s basis in the New Golden Path Warrant. If the cashless exercise were treated as not being a gain recognition event, a U.S. Holder’s holding period in the New Golden Path ordinary shares would be treated as commencing on the date following the date of exercise (or possibly the date of exercise) of the New Golden Path Warrant. If the cashless exercise were treated as a recapitalization, the holding period of the New Golden Path ordinary share would include the holding period of the New Golden Path Warrant.

It is also possible that a cashless exercise could be treated in part as a taxable exchange in which gain or loss would be recognized. In such event, a U.S. Holder would recognize gain or loss with respect to the portion of the exercised New Golden Path Warrants treated as surrendered to pay the exercise price of the New Golden Path Warrants (the “surrendered warrants”). The U.S. Holder would recognize capital gain or loss with respect to the surrendered warrants in an amount generally equal to the difference between (i) the fair market value of the New Golden Path ordinary shares that would have been received with respect to the surrendered warrants in a regular exercise of the New Golden Path Warrants and (ii) the sum of the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the surrendered warrants and the aggregate cash exercise price of such warrants (if they had been exercised in a regular exercise). In this case, a U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the New Golden Path ordinary shares received would equal the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the New Golden Path Warrants exercised plus (or minus) the gain (or loss) recognized with respect to the surrendered warrants. A U.S. Holder’s holding period for the New Golden Path ordinary shares would commence on the date following the date of exercise (or possibly the date of exercise) of the New Golden Path Warrant.

Due to the absence of authority on the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a cashless exercise, there can be no assurance which, if any, of the alternative tax consequences and holding periods described above would be adopted by the IRS or a court of law. Accordingly, U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of a cashless exercise.

Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of Exercising Redemption Rights

In the event that a U.S. Holder elects to redeem its New Golden Path ordinary shares for cash, the treatment of the transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes will depend on whether the redemption qualifies as sale or exchange of the New Golden Path ordinary shares under Section 302 of the Code. If the redemption qualifies as a sale or exchange of the New Golden Path ordinary shares, the U.S. Holder will be treated as recognizing capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on the redemption and such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the New Golden Path ordinary shares surrendered in such redemption transaction. Any such capital gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the New Golden Path ordinary shares redeemed exceeds one year. Long-term capital gains recognized by non-corporate U.S. Holders will be eligible to be taxed at reduced rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

If the redemption does not qualify as a sale or exchange of New Golden Path ordinary shares, the U.S. Holder will be treated as receiving a corporate distribution. Such distributions generally will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from New Golden Path’s current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Distributions in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits will constitute a return of capital that will be applied against and reduce (but not below zero) the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the New Golden Path ordinary shares. Any remaining excess will be treated as gain realized on the sale or other disposition of the ordinary shares. Dividends paid to a U.S. Holder that is a taxable corporation generally will qualify for the dividends received deduction if the requisite holding period is satisfied. With certain exceptions (including, but not limited to, dividends treated as investment income for purposes of investment interest deduction limitations) and provided certain holding period requirements are met, dividends paid to a non-corporate U.S. Holder generally will constitute “qualified dividends” that will be subject to tax at the maximum tax rate accorded to long-term capital gains. However, it is unclear whether the redemption rights with respect to the New Golden Path ordinary shares may prevent a U.S. Holder from satisfying the applicable holding period requirements with respect to the dividends received deduction or the preferential tax rate on qualified dividend income, as the case may be.

Whether a redemption qualifies for sale or exchange treatment will depend largely on the total number of shares of New Golden Path ordinary shares treated as held by the U.S. Holder (including any New Golden Path ordinary shares constructively owned by the U.S. Holder as a result of owning New Golden Path Warrants or New Golden Path Rights) relative to all of the shares of New Golden Path ordinary shares outstanding both before and after the redemption. The redemption of New Golden Path ordinary shares generally will be treated as a sale or exchange of the New Golden Path ordinary shares (rather than as a corporate distribution) if the redemption (i) is “substantially disproportionate” with respect to the U.S. Holder, (ii) results in a “complete termination” of the U.S. Holder’s interest in New Golden Path or (iii) is “not essentially equivalent to a dividend” with respect to the U.S. Holder. These tests are explained more fully below.

In determining whether any of the foregoing tests are satisfied, a U.S. Holder takes into account not only New Golden Path ordinary shares actually owned by the U.S. Holder, but also shares of New Golden Path ordinary shares that are constructively owned by it. A U.S. Holder may constructively own, in addition to stock owned directly, stock owned by certain related individuals and entities in which the U.S. Holder has an interest or that have an interest in such U.S. Holder, as well as any stock the U.S. Holder has a right to acquire by exercise of an option, which would generally include New Golden Path ordinary shares which could be acquired pursuant to the exercise of the New Golden Path Warrants or New Golden Path Rights. In order to meet the substantially disproportionate test, the percentage of New Golden Path’s outstanding voting shares actually and constructively owned by the U.S. Holder immediately following the redemption of the New Golden Path ordinary shares must, among other requirements, be less than 80% of the percentage of New Golden Path’s outstanding voting shares actually and constructively owned by the U.S. Holder immediately before the redemption. There will be a complete termination of a U.S. Holder’s interest if either (i) all of the shares of the New Golden Path ordinary shares actually and constructively owned by the U.S. Holder are redeemed or (ii) all of the shares of the New Golden Path ordinary shares actually owned by the U.S. Holder are redeemed and the U.S. Holder is eligible to waive, and effectively waives in accordance with specific rules, the attribution of stock owned by certain family members and the U.S. Holder does not constructively own any other New Golden Path ordinary shares. The redemption of the New Golden Path ordinary shares will not be essentially equivalent to a dividend if a U.S. Holder’s conversion results in a “meaningful reduction” of the U.S. Holder’s proportionate interest in New Golden Path. Whether the redemption will result in a meaningful reduction in a U.S. Holder’s proportionate interest in New Golden Path will depend on the particular facts and circumstances. However, the IRS has indicated in a published ruling that even a small reduction in the proportionate interest of a small minority shareholder in a publicly held corporation who exercises no control over corporate affairs may constitute such a “meaningful reduction.” A U.S. Holder should consult with its own tax advisors as to the tax consequences of a redemption.

If none of the foregoing tests is satisfied, then the redemption will be treated as a corporate distribution. After the application of those rules regarding corporate distributions, any remaining tax basis of the U.S. Holder in the redeemed ordinary shares will be added to the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its remaining New Golden Path ordinary shares, or, if it has none, to the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its New Golden Path Warrants or possibly in other New Golden Path ordinary shares constructively owned by it.

Certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences could apply to a U.S. holder if New Golden Path, or any of its subsidiaries, is treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which the U.S. holder holds New Golden Path securities. A non-U.S. corporation will be classified as a PFIC for any taxable year (a) if at least 75% of its gross income consists of passive income, such as dividends, interest, rents and royalties (except for rents and royalties earned in the active conduct of a trade or business), and gains on the disposition of property that produces such income, or (b) if at least 50% of the average value of its assets (determined on the basis of a quarterly average) is attributable to assets that produce, or are held for the production of, passive income (including for this purpose its pro rata share of the gross income and assets of any entity in which it is considered to own at least 25% of the interest, by value).

Whether New Golden Path or any of its subsidiaries is treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes is a factual determination that must be made annually at the close of each taxable year and, thus, is subject to significant uncertainty. Among other factors, fluctuations in the market price of New Golden Path ordinary shares how quickly New Golden Path uses liquid assets and cash may influence whether New Golden Path or any of its subsidiaries is treated as PFIC. Accordingly, New Golden Path is unable to determine whether New Golden Path or any of its subsidiaries will be treated as a PFIC for the taxable year of the Business Combination or for future taxable years, and there can be no assurance that New Golden Path or any of its subsidiaries will not be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year. Moreover, New Golden Path does not expect to provide a PFIC annual information statement for 2021 or going forward.

If New Golden Path were characterized as a PFIC for any taxable year, U.S. Holders of New Golden Path securities would suffer adverse tax consequences. These consequences may include having gains realized on the disposition of New Golden Path securities treated as ordinary income rather than capital gains, and being subject to punitive interest charges on certain dividends and on the proceeds of the sale or other disposition of the New Golden Path securities. U.S. Holders would also be subject to annual information reporting requirements. In addition, if New Golden Path were a PFIC in a taxable year in which New Golden Path paid a dividend or the prior taxable year, such dividends would not be eligible to be taxed at the reduced rates applicable to qualified dividend income (as discussed above). Certain elections (including a mark-to-market election) may be available to U.S. Holders to mitigate some of the adverse tax consequences resulting from PFIC treatment. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the application of the PFIC rules to their ownership of the New Golden Path securities.

In general, information reporting requirements will apply to dividends received by U.S. Holders of New Golden Path ordinary shares (including constructive dividends), and the proceeds received on the disposition of New Golden Path ordinary shares and New Golden Path Warrants effected within the United States (and, in certain cases, outside the United States), in each case, other than U.S. Holders that are exempt recipients (such as corporations). Backup withholding (currently at a rate of 24%) may apply to such amounts if the U.S. Holder fails to provide an accurate taxpayer identification number (generally on an IRS Form W-9 provided to the paying agent or the U.S. Holder’s broker) or is otherwise subject to backup withholding.

Certain U.S. Holders holding specified foreign financial assets with an aggregate value in excess of the applicable dollar threshold are required to report information to the IRS relating to New Golden Path securities, subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for New Golden Path securities held in accounts maintained by U.S. financial institutions), by attaching a complete IRS Form 8938, Statement of Specified Foreign Financial Assets, with their tax return, for each year in which they hold New Golden Path securities. In addition to these requirements, U.S. Holders may be required to annually file FinCEN Report 114 (Report of Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts) with the U.S. Department of Treasury. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding information reporting requirements relating to their ownership of New Golden Path securities.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or credit against a holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Approval of the Business Combination Proposal will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued Golden Path ordinary shares entitled to vote thereon which were present at the meeting to approve the Business Combination; provided, however, that if 3,729,000 or more of the ordinary shares purchased in the IPO demand redemption of their Golden Path ordinary shares, then the Business Combination may not be completed.

Recommendations of Golden Path’s Board of Directors to Golden Path’s Shareholders

After careful consideration of the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, the Golden Path board of directors has determined that the Business Combination and the transactions contemplated thereby are fair to and in the best interests of Golden Path and its shareholders. In reaching its decision with respect to the Business Combination, the Golden Path board of directors reviewed various industry and financial data and the due diligence and evaluation materials provided by MC. The Golden Path board of directors also obtained a fairness opinion upon which to base its assessment. Golden Path’s board of directors recommends that Golden Path’s shareholders vote FOR the Business Combination Proposal. Golden Path’s directors have interests that may be different from, or in addition to your interests as a shareholder. See the section titled “The Business Combination Proposal — Interests of Certain Persons in the Acquisition” in this proxy statement/prospectus for further information.

Golden Path’s shareholders are being asked to approve the appointment of five (5) members to the Board of directors of New Golden Path in accordance with the composition contemplated under the Merger Agreement.

Assuming completion of the Business Combination, shareholders are being asked to appoint five directors to the New Golden Path’s board, effective upon completing the Business Combination. The Director Election Proposal is contingent upon the shareholders’ approval of the Business Combination Proposal.

Guohui Kang, Wei Peng, Mi Zhou, Han Qin and Jun Liu are being nominated to serve as directors of New Golden Path. Jun Liu is currently a member of our board of directors and the chair of audit committee. Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, the board of directors of New Golden Path will initially consist of four (4) nominees of MC and one (1) nominee of Golden Path.

For more information on the experience of Guohui Kang, Wei Peng, Mi Zhou, Han Qin and Jun Liu, please see the section titled “New Golden Path’s Directors and Executive Officers After the Business Combination” of this proxy statement/prospectus.

Pursuant to Golden Path's memorandum and articles of association, the approval of the Director Election Proposal requires an ordinary resolution, which is the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Golden Path, determined as of the record date, present and entitled to vote thereon at the Extraordinary General Meeting voting at the Extraordinary General Meeting.

THE GOLDEN PATH BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT GOLDEN PATH SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE DIRECTOR ELECTION PROPOSAL.

For purposes of complying with Rule 5635(a), (b) and (d) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules, Golden Path’s shareholders are being asked to approve the issuance of up to 44,934,455 shares of Golden Path ordinary shares in connection with the Business Combination.

Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a), shareholder approval is required prior to the issuance of securities in connection with the acquisition of another company if such securities are not issued in a public offering and (i) have, or will have upon issuance, voting power equal to or in excess of 20% of the voting power outstanding before the issuance of common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for such securities); or (ii) the number of shares of common stock (or in the case of a Cayman islands entity such as Golden Path, ordinary shares) to be issued is or will be equal to or in excess of 20% of the number of ordinary shares outstanding before the issuance of the stock or securities. Collectively, the consideration to be paid in connection with the Business Combination Agreement will exceed 20% or more of the outstanding Golden Path ordinary shares and 20% or more of the voting power, in each case outstanding before the issuance of such ordinary shares in connection with the Business Combination.

Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b), shareholder approval is required when any issuance or potential issuance will result in a “change of control” of the issuer. Although Nasdaq has not adopted any rule on what constitutes a “change of control” for purposes of Rule 5635(b), Nasdaq has previously indicated that the acquisition of, or right to acquire, by a single investor or affiliated investor group, as little as 20% of the common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock) or voting power of an issuer could constitute a change of control. Under Nasdaq Rule 5635(b), the issuance of the ordinary shares in the Business Combination Consideration will result in a “change of control” of Golden Path. MC Shareholders will own or control 44,554,455 New Golden Path ordinary shares, or approximately 84.07% of the New Golden Path ordinary shares following the Business Combination, and Peace Asset Management will own an aggregate of 380,000 ordinary shares, or approximately 0.72% of the New Golden path ordinary shares.

Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), shareholders' approval is required for a transaction other than a public offering involving the sale, issuance or potential issuance by an issuer of ordinary shares (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock) at a price that is less than the lower of (i) the closing price immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement or (ii) the average closing price of the ordinary shares for the five trading days immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement, if the number of ordinary shares (or securities convertible into or exercisable for ordinary shares) to be issued equals 20% or more of the ordinary shares, or 20% or more of the voting power, outstanding before the issuance. Because ordinary shares of New Golden Path will be issued in exchange for all of the equity interests of MC, the deemed issuance price of the shares of New Golden Path may be less than the lower of (i) the closing price immediately preceding the signing of the Business Combination Agreement or (ii) the average closing price of the Golden Path ordinary shares for the five trading days immediately preceding the signing of the Business Combination Agreement. If the Business Combination Proposal is approved, the issuance of the shares of New Golden Path ordinary shares will exceed 20% of the shares of Golden Path ordinary shares currently outstanding. Because the issuance price may be deemed to be below the lower of (i) the closing price immediately preceding the signing of the Business Combination Agreement or (ii) the average closing price of the Golden Path ordinary shares for the five trading days immediately preceding the signing of the Business Combination Agreement, the Nasdaq Listing Rules may require that Golden Path obtains shareholder approval of the issuance of the shares of New Golden Path ordinary shares in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination.

As a result of the foregoing, Golden Path is required to obtain shareholder approval pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635. Golden Path shareholders should read carefully this proxy statement/prospectus in its entirety for more detailed information regarding the Subscription Agreements. You are urged to read carefully the form of Subscription Agreement in its entirety before voting on this proposal.

The approval of the Nasdaq Stock Issuance Proposal will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding Golden Path ordinary shares present (which would include presence at a virtual meeting) or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the meeting.

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT GOLDEN PATH SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE NASDAQ STOCK ISSUANCE PROPOSAL.

In connection with the Business Combination, we are asking our shareholders to approve the adoption of the proposed amendments to our Memorandum and Articles of Association, substantially in the form attached to this proxy statement as Annex C, to be effective upon the consummation of the Business Combination to change the name of Golden Path to MicroCloud Hologram Inc.

In consultation with MC and its shareholders, the Golden Path Board of Directors believes that the new name will more accurately reflect the business of MC and its intended and future businesses and operations.

As a business formed solely for the purpose of completing a business combination, the current name of Golden Path has no business meaning or trade value.

In the case of the Name Change Proposal, shareholders' approval by way of a special resolution of the affirmative vote of at least two thirds (2/3) of the votes cast by the holders of the Golden Path ordinary shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Extraordinary General Meeting and entitled to vote is required.

THE BOARD OF GOLDEN PATH UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT GOLDEN PATH SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE NAME CHANGE PROPOSAL.

In connection with the Business Combination, we are asking our shareholders to approve the adoption of the proposed amendments to our Memorandum and Articles of Association, substantially in the form attached to this proxy statement as Annex C, to be effective upon the consummation of the Business Combination to remove certain provisions that will no longer be applicable to New Golden Path because it will no longer be a blank check or special purpose acquisition entity.

This summary is qualified by reference to the complete text of the proposed Memorandum and Articles of Association, substantially in the form attached to this proxy/registration statement as Annex C. All shareholders are encouraged to read the proposed Memorandum and Articles of Association, in their entirety for a more complete description of their terms.

Our proposed amendments to the Memorandum and Articles of Association do not include provisions related to a blank check company (including those related to operation of the trust account, winding up our operations should we not complete an initial business combination by a specified date, and other such blank check-specific provisions as are present in the existing organizational documents) because following the consummation of the Business Combination, New Golden Path will not be a blank check company. The proposed amendments to the Memorandum and Articles of Association do not contain the requirement to dissolve New Golden Path allowing it to continue as a corporate entity with perpetual existence following the Business Combination. Perpetual existence is the usual period of existence for corporations, and our board of directors believes it is the most appropriate period for New Golden Path following the Business Combination.

The Articles amendment Proposal must be approved by shareholders by way of a special resolution as a matter of Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares as of the record date that are present and vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes, while considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum, will not count as a vote cast and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on Articles Amendment Proposal. Failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person at the Extraordinary General Meeting will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on Articles Amendment Proposal.

THE BOARD OF GOLDEN PATH RECOMMENDS THAT OUR SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF ARTICLES AMENDMENT PROPOSAL.

The adjournment proposal allows the Golden Path Board of Directors to submit a proposal to adjourn the extraordinary general meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Nasdaq Stock Issuance Proposal, the Name Change Proposal and the Articles Amendment Proposal.

In no event will Golden Path solicit proxies to adjourn the extraordinary general meeting or consummate the Business Combination beyond the date by which it may properly do so under its current certificate of incorporation and Cayman Islands law. The purpose of the adjournment proposal is to provide more time for the Sponsor, Golden Path and/or their respective affiliates to make purchases of public shares or other arrangements that would increase the likelihood of obtaining a favorable vote on such proposal and to meet the requirements that are necessary to consummate the Business Combination. See the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — Interests of Certain Persons in the Business Combination.”

In addition to an adjournment of the extraordinary general meeting upon approval of an adjournment proposal, the Golden Path Board is empowered under Cayman Islands law to postpone the meeting at any time prior to the extraordinary general meeting being called to order. In such event, Golden Path will issue a press release and take such other steps as it believes are necessary and practical in the circumstances to inform its shareholders of the postponement.

If an adjournment proposal is presented at the extraordinary general meeting and is not approved by the shareholders, the Golden Path Board may not be able to adjourn the extraordinary general meeting to a later date. In such event, the Business Combination would not be completed.

The approval of the adjournment proposal will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by holders of Golden Path’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares represented at the extraordinary general meeting by attendance in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon.

Adoption of the adjournment proposal is not conditional upon the adoption of any of the other proposals. Accordingly, if a valid quorum is established, a Golden Path shareholder’s failure to vote by proxy or to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting, abstentions and broker non-votes with regard to the adjournment proposal will have no effect on such proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the adjournment proposal.

THE GOLDEN PATH BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT THE GOLDEN PATH SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE ADJOURNMENT PROPOSAL.

MC’s holographic ADAS adopt self-developed holographic LiDAR module and vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (“VCSEL”) integrated circuit (“IC”) semiconductor, integrated with holographic onboard intelligent vision system and innovative design of automotive IC customization scheme, meanwhile embedded with self-developed holographic image and control software. Holographic ADAS mainly consist of three systems: (1) the environmental perception system responsible for environmental recognition, namely holographic LiDAR; (2) the central decision-making system responsible for computing and analysis, the core of which is the visual recognition technology based on computer graphics, where MC integrates holographic image processing technology; and (3) the underlying execution system which is responsible for the execution control and the execution is mainly carried out by the hardware with functions of braking and steering. Based on the innovation and development of holographic LiDAR technology, MC brings opportunities and inspiration to the automotive industry that needs innovation in technology and performance and plays a key role in improving the safety of future travels.

MC holographic ADAS integrate holographic LiDAR front-view, surround-view, and internal-view cameras, which can monitor the environment inside and outside the vehicle in real-time. It can realize the functions of navigation, lane departure warning system, forward-collision warning system, blind-spot monitoring system, lane change assistance, automatic parking system, lane-keeping system, and driver state monitoring system. It can provide different technical options according to different customer needs.

Compared with traditional ADAS, the holographic ADAS MC provides have obvious advantages such as better perceptual stability, lower costs, and higher precision. Currently, MC is the direct supplier for certain automobile brands, as well as the secondary supplier of many automobile brands and the product supplier of rear-loading market. Therefore, in the automobile ADAS field and autonomous driving field based on holographic LiDAR, MC still has much growth space.

MC’s holographic ADAS adopt a “holographic LiDAR technology solution” in the vehicle sensing layer. There are several core advantages in MC’s technical application: 3D model data model of ambient environment using point cloud data, high-precision and low-latency positioning, and obstacle detection and identification by classifications. In the process of assisting driving, the data obtained through the holographic LiDAR is combined with the high-precision map. After the point cloud data has completed locating the surrounding environment, real-time route guidance and rendering are carried out according to the position of the vehicle, and the sensor-based position estimation technology is optimized. By reading the vehicle sensor information and combining the human body motion model and other methods, the corresponding position is calculated and then used for decision-making in the real scene with the help of in-depth computing power analysis.

MC’s holographic LiDAR technology is significantly different from the traditional technology of space environment construction, mainly because of the following factors:

MC’s holographic LiDAR combines holographic image processing technology, which enables ADAS to provide real-time, all-weather, and holographic perception of the surrounding environment. Holographic LiDAR gives MC the following advantages:

MC’s holographic LiDAR adopts an exclusive holographic point cloud algorithm architecture, aiming at the efficient implementation of digital signal processing algorithms, enabling MC’s holographic LiDAR to achieve excellent performance on all detectable targets.

MC’s algorithm design scheme for holographic LiDAR is capable of extensively developing and verifying the results of real-world road data, including road types, geographic and environmental conditions, etc. The proprietary algorithm architecture of MC’s holographic LiDAR has the following advantages:

LiDAR technology can generate millions of to tens of millions of point clouds per second, while unprocessed point clouds are disordered and lack color and texture information, which is impractical for application. MC’s holographic LiDAR algorithm can denoise, simplify, calculate in key points, align, position, identify, and extract point cloud, and conduct accurate digital holographic three-dimensional reconstruction.

MC believes that the digital signal processing algorithm in its holographic LiDAR technology can achieve the goal of high performance and low power consumption. The solution can operate in a variety of environmental conditions and meet the strict requirements of automotive safety and production safety.

MC’s proprietary holographic LiDAR sensor chip design solves key hurdles to the wide adoption of automotive LiDAR based on traditional laser scanning technology.

In the field of LiDAR, MC believes that there is little room for image simulation technology to improve in the future. In contrast, MC expects that its holographic LiDAR will grow exponentially in the next few years.

The application prospect of holographic LiDAR is very broad. Currently, it can be applied to autonomous driving and advanced driving assistance, etc. With the development of 5G and AI technology, MC’s technology may gradually popularize robots, UAVs, advanced security systems, smart cities, industrial automation, environment and surveying and mapping and other industries in the future.

In the holographic ADAS, MC provides users with better on-board intelligent visual experience. The holographic vehicle intelligent vision system, equipped with advanced sensors, controllers, actuators, communication modules and other equipment, can assist the driver in controlling the vehicle more conveniently through the holographic panoramic real-time navigation system, holographic look around system and holographic monitoring system. MC’s holographic ADAS can realize the following functions in the vehicle intelligent vision system:

The advantage of holographic look around system is to project the four images collected by holographic LiDAR and other sensors onto a three-dimensional display model and enable the view roaming switch with the help of graphics processing units (“GPUs”) to avoid the virtual edge. The holographic look around system can bring the driver more visual field and more viewing angle. Through the holographic LiDAR technology, MC reconstructs the scene around the vehicle in 3D and combines it with the virtual vehicle model in the same 3D coordination system by algorithm so as to construct a holographic vehicle intelligent vision system that is closer to the real world and provide accurate scene presentation for the driver to observe the environment.

The application of holographic vehicle intelligent vision enables the driver to have overall control over the surrounding environment of the car, which can not only effectively prevent the occurrence of reverse rolling accidents, but also avoid the possible events such as scraping bumper and wheel hub. In addition, for the information collected in real-time, the holographic look around system can recognize the object and send out early warning through the deep learning algorithm to assist the driver to drive safely.

MC uses the advanced patent technology in face recognition, combined with the holographic image acquisition technology. MC has developed the advanced DMS for driver fatigue driving, which collects driver video through image sensor and then uses the algorithm to identify and locate the driver’s face and eyes. Through the analysis of the eye image features, the warning is issued. MC’s technology overcomes the defects of traditional recognition methods based on machine vision, which are easily interfered by glasses / sunglasses and other objects, improves the accuracy of driver’s eye closure judgment, and further improves the accuracy of fatigue driving judgment with better adaptability. In addition to early warning driving safety, this function can also be used to protect the property safety and payment safety of vehicles. When the system identifies an unregistered suspicious person on board, it can trigger an alarm in the cloud and synchronize the suspicious person’s face information to the cloud.

In addition, MC’s LDWS, by telling the driving direction of the vehicle and the continuation direction of the traffic line, will issue a warning when the vehicle deviates from the lane line and the driving direction crosses the traffic lines on both sides. MC’s FCWS analyzes the shadow and contour features of vehicles in front of the road in real-time to locate the position of vehicles, and then calculates the estimated collision time according to the speed of the vehicle and the distance from the front vehicle, so as to determine the potential collision risk and issue an early warning.

With the increasing demand for autonomous driving, the demand for the application of holographic LiDAR in ADAS also increases. MC understands that the most effective autopilot solution is perceptive and visual, and can provide the end consumers with complete solutions through the original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”). In order to ensure the highest efficiency of products, MC cooperates with automotive IC manufacturers, which can not only achieve customized solutions but also provide customers with universal solutions.

MC’s products use holographic LiDAR in a wide range of driving environments to enhance the perception capability and carry out intelligent holographic image recognition for the surrounding environment such as passing vehicles, pedestrians, lane lines, traffic signs, traffic lights, etc., so as to provide drivers with a series of driving safety assistance, such as front vehicle distance monitoring, collision warning, pedestrian warning, lane departure warning, front vehicle start warning, traffic light reminder, etc. MC’s product portfolio of holographic ADAS includes sensor hardware and perception and decision-making software to improve existing vehicle capabilities and achieve a higher level of vehicle automation for consumer and commercial applications.

Holography refers to the expression of all information of things. The advantage of holography lies in the expression of holographic space. It is another carrier of information in society. Holographic display technology is different from other traditional 3D display technologies in that it does not rely on any external devices like 3D glasses and helmets. Comparatively speaking, holographic display technology has the advantages of unlimited viewing angle, omni-directional viewing and no difference from the real object, and it can also interact with holographic imaging in-depth, which is a new breakthrough in touch sensing interaction and meets the goal of natural reality and three-dimensional visual effect.

Holographic digital technology is the combination of computer technology, holographic technology, and electronic imaging technology. It records holograms through electronic components and realizes real-time image processing. At the same time, the digital image can be quantitatively analyzed by computer, the intensity and phase distribution of the image can be obtained by calculation, and the superposition of multiple holograms can be simulated, so that the recording and reproduction of holograms can be truly digitized.

As communication technology enters the 5G era, the rapid development and popularization of cloud computing, big data, AI, and other technologies have promoted the development of holographic digital technology. MC believes that holographic digital technology will become the technical foundation of the next generation of the Internet. MC believes that the next generation of Internet will be holographic space Internet and hopes that through its continuous attempts and breakthroughs in holographic technology, MC can lay a foundation for wide adoption by the mass market.

MC believes that the combination of holographic technology and digitization is of great significance in promoting the development of social economy and culture. With the development of technology, the application of holographic digital technology is becoming more market-oriented. For example, in the automotive field, the holographic digital technology is applied to the navigation, and the navigation is projected on the front window, so that the driver can clearly know the route without bending his head, which greatly improves the driving safety. The application in the medical field is also of great practical significance. The use of holographic digital technology can record the vibration and deformation of organs in the human body in a three-dimensional way, which can be measured by the interference fringes on the hologram. The second exposure technology of holographic LiDAR can also analyze the changes of human organs, so as to find out the location and size of lesions. For example, the use of holographic digital technology can detect the location of malignant tumors and contribute to the early diagnosis and treatment of cancer. Because of the non-destructive property of digital hologram, it is considered to be the best method to detect human internal organs. Of course, digital hologram technology is also widely used in clinical examination. In addition, in the field of aerospace, holographic digital technology also has broad application prospects, such as the use of holographic digital technology can simulate the real outer space for real perception training, which brings great significance to the training of astronauts.

With the continuous expansion of the application field of holographic digital technology, MC believes that in the future, holographic digital technology will become an irreplaceable part of society.

LiDAR is a combination of laser, global positioning system (“GPS”) and inertial navigation system (“INS”) technology and is used to obtain point cloud data and generate accurate digital three-dimensional model. Laser itself has a very accurate ranging capability and its ranging accuracy can reach several centimeters. In addition to the laser itself, the accuracy of LiDAR system also depends on the synchronization of laser, GPS, and inertial measurement unit (“IMU”). Holographic LiDAR is an active measurement device that detects the precise distance between the object and the sensor by emitting a laser beam, including a transmitting unit, a receiving unit, a scanning unit and a data processing unit. The distance is determined by measuring the time difference and phase difference of the laser signal, and the angle is measured by horizontal scanning. According to these two parameters, a two-dimensional polar coordinate system is established, and then the three-dimensional height information is obtained by different pitch angle signals.

With the development of commercial GPS and IMU, it has been widely used to obtain high-precision data from mobile platforms (such as automobiles) through LiDAR. LiDAR scanning can obtain point cloud data, which can be used to create 3D computer-aided design (“CAD”) models for manufacturing parts, quality inspection, diversified vision, cartoon production, 3D drawing, and mass communication tool applications. In addition, it can be used in the construction of digital 3D City, 3D terrain acquisition, 3D cultural relic reconstruction, cadastral survey, power inventory and other industries that need surveying and mapping modelling.

Holographic intelligent vision refers to the machine vision that uses camera and computer to simulate human vision to recognize, track and measure the target, and to further process the image through recognition and analysis, so that the computer processing becomes more suitable for human eyes to observe or transmit to the instrument for detection. Holographic intelligent vision plays an important role in the establishment of artificial intelligence system to obtain “information” from images or multidimensional data.

Holographic intelligent vision is the science of using computers to imitate human visual systems, which enables computer with the ability to extract, process, understand and analyze images and image sequences similar to human beings, and realize the perception and recognition of the three-dimensional scene of the objective world.

In the fields of autopilot, robot, intelligent medical and so on, it is necessary to extract information from the visual signal by holographic intelligent vision technology and carry out high-precision processing. Holographic intelligent vision technology used in holographic technology service includes holographic face recognition, holographic object, and scene recognition.

Holographic SDK technology can collect holographic data through tactile feedback information, force feedback information and the movement of the observed object. The holographic virtual space is constructed by scene map switching, scene building and 3D geographic information; Holographic digital content editing is carried out by means of dynamic image processing, graphic display, and rectification. Through the control system of animation glare system, dynamic glare effect and dynamic conversion, the holographic digital effect is produced, and the holographic virtual digital control function is realized by light field dynamic fusion control system and holographic digital display software.

MC’s holographic SDK services include holographic data acquisition, holographic virtual space construction, holographic digital content editing, holographic digital effect production and holographic virtual digital control module, and 65 software kits, which can meet the current market demand for holographic software technology application, software development and other aspects. MC will also continue to develop new functions according to the needs of customers to enrich the holographic SDK library.

MC’s total revenue increased by approximately RMB 140.5 million, or 186%, from approximately RMB 75.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, to approximately RMB 216.1 million (USD 33.1 million) for the year ended December 31, 2020. MC’s net income increased by approximately RMB 21.5 million (USD 3.1 million), or 227%, from RMB 10.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, to RMB 31.8 million (USD 4.8 million) for the year ended December 31, 2020.

MC is positive for its revenue growth in the year 2021 due to growing demands for its service and its continuing expansion. However, MC might be negatively affected by the continuous development of novel coronavirus (COVID-19). For a detailed description of the risks associated with the novel coronavirus, see COVID-19 Pandemic and risk factor. Because of the significant uncertainties surrounding the COVID-19 outbreak, the extent of the business disruption and the related financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

MC’s business and results of operations are affected by the general factors affecting the PRC, which include, among other things:

Unfavorable changes in any of these general factors could materially and adversely affect MC’s business and results of operations.

MC’s ability to increase its revenues and its profitability will depend on the ability to retain its existing customers as well as to continue to increase MC’s customer base and revenue per customer. To achieve this, MC strives to increase its marketing efforts and to enhance the quality and capabilities of MC’s technologies.

MC believes that a core element of the competitiveness of the holographic technology service industry is research and development related to technology development. The advancement of technology related to holographic technology will take the holographic technology, new services, products and capabilities, to newer fields of application.

MC intends to continue to pursue strategic acquisitions and investments in selective technologies and businesses in the holographic technology service industry that will enhance MC’s technology capabilities. MC believes that a solid acquisition and investment strategy may be critical for it to accelerate its growth and strengthen its competitive position in the future. MC’s ability to identify and execute strategic acquisitions and investments will likely have an impact on MC’s operating results over time.

MC has a diversified business line within the holographic technology service industry. It is essential for MC to keep up with latest holographic technology to remain competitive for each of MC’s services. In addition, MC expects that more applications will be identified and applied to magnify the value of holographic technology. Therefore, MC’s ability to expand MC’s application fields and diversify MC’s customer base may affect MC’s operating results in the future.

MC’s ability to maintain and increase profitability also depends on its ability to effectively control its costs and expenses. Significant components of MC’s cost of revenues are cost paid to vendors, cost paid to third-party consultants, and cost of salaries. MC’s gross profit margin decreased from 93% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 to 70% for the six months ended June 30, 2021. MC’s gross profit margin decreased from 97% for the year ended December 31, 2019 to 62% for the year ended December 31, 2020 due to a new revenue structure after business combinations, including rendering of holographic ADAS solution services and expansion of holographic technology services. MC’s ability to negotiate better pricing with vendors, contractors, and third-party consultants has a significant impact on MC’s business.

MC’s operating expenses include three key components, selling expenses, general and administrative expenses, and research and development expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2021, MC’s total operating expenses as a percentage of MC’s total revenues was 99% and 48%, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, MC’s total operating expenses as a percentage of MC’s total revenues were 85% and 47%, respectively. MC expects its operating expenses to keep increasing as it incurs additional expenses associated with its overall growth as well as becoming a public company, but at a lower rate compared to the growth rate of its revenues.

An outbreak of respiratory illness caused by COVID-19 emerged in Wuhan city, Hubei province, PRC, in late 2019 and has been expanding within the PRC and globally. The new strain of COVID-19 is considered to be highly contagious and poses a serious public health threat. On January 23, 2020, the PRC government announced the lockdown of Wuhan city in an attempt to quarantine the city. Since then, other measures including travel restrictions have been imposed in other major cities in the PRC and throughout the world in an effort to contain the COVID-19 outbreak. The World Health Organization (the “WHO”) is closely monitoring and evaluating the situation. On March 11, 2020, the WHO declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a pandemic, expanding its assessment of the threat beyond the global health emergency it had announced in January.

Currently several variants of the virus, including the delta variant, are creating concerns globally. The new variants seem to spread more easily and quickly which may lead to more cases of COVID-19 and put more strain on business and economic growth. Any outbreak of such epidemic illness or other adverse public health developments in the PRC or elsewhere in the world may materially and adversely affect the global economy, MC’s markets and MC’s business. MC was able to achieve positive revenue growth during the year of 2020. However, a prolonged disruption or any further unforeseen delay in MC’s operations could continue to result in increased costs and reduced revenue.

MC cannot foresee whether the outbreak of COVID-19 will be effectively contained, nor can MC predict the severity and duration of its impact. If the outbreak of COVID-19 is not effectively and timely controlled, MC’s business operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected as a result of the slowdown in regional and national economic growth, weakened liquidity and financial condition of MC’s customers or other factors that MC cannot foresee. Any of these factors and other factors beyond MC’s control could have an adverse effect on the overall business environment, cause uncertainties in the regions where MC conducts business, cause MC’s business to suffer in ways that MC cannot predict and materially and adversely impact MC’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

MC currently operates in two segments and generates revenue by providing (i) holographic solutions and (ii) holographic technology services. Please see MC’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus for additional information regarding MC’s operations.

MC’s revenues consist of (i) holographic solutions services, which include LiDAR and other holographic technology hardware products, licensing and content products, and technology development service, and (ii) holographic technology services, which include holographic technology advertising and software development kit (“SDK”) service.

For holographic solutions, the cost of revenue consists primarily of the costs of hardware products sold and cost paid to outsourced content providers, cost of third-party software development, and compensation expenses paid to MC’s professionals.

For holographic technology service, the cost of revenue consists primarily of costs paid to channel distributors of advertising services and compensation expenses paid to MC’s professionals.

MC’s selling expenses consist primarily of (i) compensation for selling personnel, (ii) travel expenses of its sales representatives, and (iii) advertising and promotion cost.

MC’s general and administrative expenses consist primarily of (i) compensation for its management and administrative personnel, (ii) expenses in connection with its operation supporting functions such as legal, accounting, consulting and other professional service fees, and (iii) office rental, depreciation, and other administrative related expenses.

The holographic images and animations could be viewed from any angle without using any special equipment.

Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (“ADAS”) are a group of electronic technologies that assist drivers in driving and parking functions. ADAS use holographic technology, such as Light Detection and Ranging (“LiDAR”) system, to detect nearby obstacles or driver errors, and respond according. Holographic ADAS have been widely adopted in automobile industry to improve safety and deriver experience. MC added holographic ADAS service to its business line through the acquisition of Shenzhen Bowei on July 1, 2020.

MC’s total revenue increased by approximately RMB 189.0 million, or 657%, from approximately RMB 28.8 million for the six months ended June 30,2020, to approximately RMB 217.8 million (USD 33.7 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increased revenue in holographic solutions was mainly due to the extension of MC’s business line to include holographic ADAS service after the acquisition of Shenzhen Bowei on July 1, 2020, and incorporation of Horgos Bowei in November 2020. In addition, the growing number of customers of Shenzhen Mengyun and Shanghai Mengyun also drove up MC’s revenue from holographic solutions. The increased revenue of holographic technology service was mainly due to the acquisition of Shenzhen Tianyuemeng in October 2020 which specializes on holographic advertising services. In addition, MC incorporated Horgos Tianyuemeng in October 2020 and Horgos Youshi in November 2020, respectively, which generates additional revenue though holographic SDK services.

Total cost of revenues increased by approximately RMB 63.6 million, or 3028%, from approximately RMB 2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, to approximately RMB 65.7 million (USD 10.2 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase of cost of revenues is consistent with the increase of MC’s total revenue.

Cost of holographic solutions mainly comprises of cost of hardware products sold, outsourced content providers cost, third party software development cost, and compensation expense paid to MC’s professionals. Cost of holographic solutions increased by approximately RMB 54.4 million, or 2673%, from approximately RMB 2.0 million for the six months ended June 30,2020, to approximately RMB 56.4 million (USD 8.7 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to the diversification of Shenzhen Mengyun’s business lines which provided additional integrated holographic solutions, including holographic hardware sales. In addition, MC launched holographic ADAS service through the acquisition of Shenzhen Bowei on July 1, 2020, which provides ADAS service through printed circuit board assembly (“PCBA”), a technology that applies LiDAR technology to chips. The increased hardware cost is the main reason for the increased cost of holographic solutions.

Cost of holographic technology service mainly comprises of outsourced holographic advertising cost, which incurred after the acquisition of Shenzhen Tianyuemeng in October 2020.

MC’s gross profit and gross profit margin from its two business segments are summarized as follows:

The gross profit margin decreased by 23% from 93% in 2020 to 70% in 2021, which is due to the diversification of MC’s business lines.

MC’s gross margin of holographic solutions decreased from 85% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 to 33% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, mainly due to the acquisition of Shenzhen Bowei. The outbreak of COVID-19 has caused a significant increase in chips’ price. As a result, MC’s gross margin decreased compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020.

MC’s gross margin of holographic technology service decreased from 100% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 to 93% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, mainly due to the increasing cost of revenues for holographic advertising services incurred by Shenzhen Tianyuemeng.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, MC incurred a total of approximately RMB 104.7 million (USD 16.2 million) operating expenses, an increase of approximately RMB 76.0 million, or 266%, as compared to a total of approximately RMB 28.7 million during the six months ended June 30,2020.

Selling expenses decreased by approximately RMB 1.8 million, or 43% from approximately RMB 4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, to approximately RMB 2.4 million (USD 0.4 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was mainly due to the promotion of MC’s platform to provide holographic technology services.

Finance expenses primarily included the bank charges. Other income primarily included government subsidies and VAT refund. As part of VAT reform in 2019, a taxpayer in certain service industries was allowed to reclaim additional 10% of input VAT credit against the amount of VAT payable from April 1, 2019, to June 30, 2021. Total government subsidies amounted to RMB 0.07 million and RMB 0.9 million (USD 0.1 million) for the six months ended June 30,2020, and 2021, respectively, as MC applied for, and received, more government grants for new technology and software. VAT refund amounted to RMB 0.06 million and RMB 0.5 million (USD 0.08 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2020, and 2021 respectively as MC has more operating entities within its structures.

MC’s income tax expenses increased by approximately RMB 0.2 million, or 100%, from approximately RMB nil for the six months ended June 30, 2020, to approximately RMB 0.2 million (USD 0.02 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2021, which was a result of MC’s increased taxable income.

As a result of various factors discussed above, MC’s net (loss) income increased from approximately net loss RMB 1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 to net income approximately RMB 49.0 million (USD 8 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Year Ended December 31, 2019, compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2020

MC’s total revenue increased by approximately RMB 140.5 million, or 186%, from approximately RMB 75.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, to approximately RMB 216.1 million (USD 33.1 million) for the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase in holographic solutions revenue was mainly due to the extension MC’s business lines to include ADAS service through the acquisition of Shenzhen Bowei on July 1, 2020 and, the incorporation of Horgos Bowei in November 2020. In addition, the growing number of customers of Shenzhen Mengyun and Shanghai Mengyun fueled the growth of MC’s holographic solutions revenue. The increase on holographic technology service revenue was mainly due to the acquisition of Shenzhen Tianyuemeng in October 2020 which specializes on holographic advertising services. In addition, MC incorporated Horgos Tianyuemeng in October 2020 and Horgos Youshi in November 2020, respectively, which generates revenue though holographic SDK services.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires MC’s management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. MC has identified certain accounting policies that are significant to the preparation of MC’s financial statements. These accounting policies are important for an understanding of MC’s financial condition and results of operation. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of MC’s financial conditions and results of operations and require management’s difficult, subjective, or complex judgment, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting the estimate may differ significantly from management’s current judgments. While MC’s significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to MC’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report, MC believes the following critical accounting policies involve the most significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of MC’s financial statements.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for information pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of MC and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances between MC and its subsidiaries are eliminated upon consolidation.

Subsidiaries are those entities in which MC, directly or indirectly, controls more than one half of the voting power; or has the power to govern the financial and operating policies, to appoint or remove the majority of the members of the board of directors, or to cast a majority of votes at the meeting of directors.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Significant accounting estimates reflected in MC’s consolidated financial statements include the useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill, allowance for doubtful accounts, revenue recognition, inventory reserve, purchase price allocation for business combination, uncertain tax position, and deferred taxes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The purchase price of an acquired company is allocated between tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed from the acquired business based on their estimated fair values, with the residual of the purchase price recorded as goodwill. Transaction costs associated with business combinations are expensed as incurred, and are included in general and administrative expenses in MC’s consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. The results of operations of the acquired business are included in MC’s operating results from the date of acquisition.

Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration paid for an acquisition over the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the acquired subsidiaries at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is not amortized and is tested for impairment at least annually, more often when circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred. Goodwill is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. If impairment exists, goodwill is immediately written down to its fair value and the loss is recognized in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Impairment losses on goodwill are not reversed.

MC has the option to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform further impairment testing in accordance with ASC 350-20, as amended by ASU 2017-04. If MC believes, as a result of the qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the impairment test described below is required. MC compares the fair values of each reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill is not considered to be impaired. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, impairment is recognized for the difference, limited to the amount of goodwill recognized for the reporting unit. Estimating fair value is performed by utilizing various valuation techniques, with the primary technique being discounted cash flows.

Long-lived assets, including property and equipment and intangible assets with finite lives are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (such as a significant adverse change to market conditions that will impact the future use of the assets) indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. MC assesses the recoverability of the assets based on the undiscounted future cash flows the assets are expected to generate and recognize an impairment loss when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset plus net proceeds expected from disposition of the asset, if any, are less than the carrying value of the asset. If an impairment is identified, MC would reduce the carrying amount of the asset to its estimated fair value based on a discounted cash flows approach or, when available and appropriate, to comparable market values. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, no impairment of long-lived assets was recognized.

MC’s intangible assets with definite useful lives primarily consist of customer relationships, software, and non-competing agreements. Identifiable intangible assets resulting from the acquisitions of subsidiaries accounted for using the purchase method of accounting are estimated by management based on the fair value of assets received. MC amortizes its intangible assets with definite useful lives over their estimated useful lives and reviews these assets for impairment. MC typically amortizes its intangible assets with definite useful lives on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the contractual terms or the estimated useful lives of three to ten years.

Accounts receivable include trade accounts due from customers. Accounts are considered overdue after 90 days. Management reviews its receivables on a regular basis to determine if the bad debt allowance is adequate and provides allowance when necessary. The allowance is based on management’s best estimates of specific losses on individual customer exposures, as well as the historical trends of collections. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the likelihood of collection is not probable.

MC adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC Topic 606) on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective method for contracts that were not completed as of December 31, 2018. The ASU requires the use of a new five-step model to recognize revenue from customer contracts. The five-step model requires that MC (i) identifies the contract with the customer, (ii) identifies the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determines the transaction price, including variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant future reversal will not occur, (iv) allocates the transaction price to the respective performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognizes revenue when (or as) MC satisfies the performance obligation.

Prior to fiscal year 2019, MC recognizes revenue when all of the following have occurred: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the price or fees are fixed or determinable, and (iv) the ability to collect is reasonably assured. Revenue is presented in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income net of sales taxes. MC does not offer rights of refund of previously paid or delivered amounts, rebates, rights of return or price protection. In all instances, MC limits the amount of revenue recognized to the amounts for which it has the right to bill its’ customers.

The application of the five-step model to the revenue streams compared to the prior guidance did not result in significant changes in the way MC records its revenue. Upon adoption, MC evaluated its revenue recognition policy for all revenue streams within the scope of the ASU under previous standards and using the five-step model under the new guidance and confirmed that there were no differences in the pattern of revenue recognition. MC applied practical expedient when sales taxes were collected from customers, meaning sales tax is recorded net of revenue, instead of cost of revenue, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities and are excluded from the transaction price.

MC’s revenue recognition policies effective upon the adoption of ASC 606 are as follows:

MC applies holographic technology to the ADAS industry by providing holographic light detection and ranging services (“LiDAR”) and holographic intelligent vision services. Holographic LiDAR uses point cloud data to build a 3D modeling data of the surrounding environment, which provides high precision and low latency positioning, obstacle detection and classification recognition for drivers. Holographic vehicle-mounted intelligent vision system assists drivers to operate the vehicle more conveniently through panoramic real-time navigation, holographic round-viewing image, holographic monitoring and driver Face ID.

MC generates LiDAR revenue through selling integrated circuit board embedded with holographic software. MC typically enters into written contracts with its customer where the rights of the parties, including payment terms, are identified and sales prices to the customers are fixed with no separate sales rebate, discount, or other incentive and no right of return exists on sales of inventory. MC’s performance obligation is to deliver products according to contract specifications. MC recognizes gross product revenue at a point in time when the control of products are transferred to customers.

b. Holographic Technology Intelligence Vision software and Technology Development Service

MC generates revenue by developing ADAS software and technology, which are generally on a fixed-priced basis. MC has no alternative use for the customized software and MC has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. Revenues from ADAS software development contracts are recognized over time during the contract period based on MC’s measurement of progress towards completion using input method, which is usually measured by comparing labor hours expended to date to total estimated labor hours needed to satisfy the performance obligation. Assumptions, risks and uncertainties inherent in the estimates used to measure progress could affect the amount of revenues, receivables and deferred revenues at each reporting period. MC has a long history of developing various ADAS softwares resulting in its ability to reasonably estimate the progress toward completion on each fixed price customized contracts.

MC provides holographic content products and holographic software for music videos, shows, and commercials on a fixed-price basis. These contents and software are generally pre-developed and exist when made available to the customer. Content products are delivered through its website or offline using hard drive. Customers may purchase content content license on an exclusively basis.

Revenues from licensing and content products are recognized at the point in time when the control of products or services is transferred to customers. No upgrades, maintenance, or any other post-contract customer support are provided.

MC is a distributer of holographic hardware and generates revenue through resale. In accordance with ASC 606, revenue recognition: principal agent consideration, an entity is a principal if it controls the specified good or service before that good or service is transferred to a customer. Otherwise, the entity is an agent in the transaction. MC evaluates three indicators of control in accordance with ASU 2016-08: 1) For hardware sales, MC is the most visible entity to customers and assumes fulfillment risk and risks related to the acceptability of products, including addressing customer complaints directly and handling of product returns or refunds directly. 2) MC is exposed to inventory risk after transfer of control to customers by accepting product returns and being required to mitigate any resulting losses by reselling the product or negotiating returns with the vendor. 3) MC determines the resale price of hardware products. After evaluating the above scenario, MC considers itself the principal of these arrangements and records hardware sales revenue on a gross basis.

Hardware sales contracts are on a fixed price basis with no separate sales rebate, discount, or other incentive and no right of return exists on sales of inventory. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when MC has delivered products and the acceptance by its customer with no future obligation.

Holographic advertisements are the use of holographic technology integrated into advertisements on media platforms or offline display. MC enters advertising contracts with advertisers where the amounts cost per action (“CPA”) are fixed and determinable. MC outsources its advertising service to channel providers where the amounts cost per action are also fixed and determinable. Revenue is recognized at a point of time on a CPA basis when agreed actions are performed. MC considers itself as provider of the services as it has the control of the services at any time before it is transferred to the customers which is evidenced by 1) having a right to a service to be performed by the other party, which gives MC the ability to direct that party to provide the service to the customers on MC’s behalf. 2) having discretion in setting the price for the service 3) billing monthly advertising fee directly to customers by settling valid CPA data with customers. Therefore, MC acts as the principal of these arrangements and reports revenue earned and costs incurred related to these transactions on a gross basis.

MC’s SDK service is a collection of software development tools in one installable package that enables customers (usually software developers) to add holographic functionality and run holographic advertisements in their APPs or software. SDK contracts are primarily on a fixed rate basis, or cost per SDK Connection. MC recognizes SDK service revenue at a point in time when a user completes an SDK connection via a designated portal. Service fees are generally billed monthly based on per-connection basis.

MC records receivable related to revenue when it has an unconditional right to invoice and receive payment.

Payments received from customers before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition met are recorded as deferred revenues.

For holographic solutions, the cost of revenue consists primarily of the costs of hardware products sold and outsourced content providers, third party software development costs, and compensation expenses for MC’s professionals.

For holographic technology service, the cost of revenue consists primarily of costs paid to channel distributors for advertising services and compensation expenses for MC’s professionals.

Research and development expenses include salaries and other compensation-related expenses to MC’s research and product development personnel, outsourced subcontractors, as well as office rental, depreciation and related expenses for MC’s research and product development team.

MC is accounted for current income taxes in accordance with the laws of the relevant tax authorities. The charge for taxation is based on the results for the fiscal year as adjusted for items, which are non-assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Deferred taxes is accounted for using the asset and liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax basis used in the computation of assessable tax profit. In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Deferred tax is calculated using tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the income statement, except when it is related to items credited or charged directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the net deferred tax asset will not be realized. Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities.

An uncertain tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur.

Hologram refers to the display of all information. It is a virtual representation of an object generated by the interference of light beams that reflect a real physical object. Hologram preserves the depth, parallax, and other properties of the original object. This virtual representation can be seen without using any special equipment, such as cameras or glasses, and can be viewed from any angle, so as the user walks around the display, the object will appear to move and shift realistically.

Holographic technologies include any technologies that create, reconstruct and present holograms with the use of different methods and tools. Holographic technologies fall into the following two categories: 1) holographic display technologies, and 2) holographic digitalization technologies. With the evolution of hardware and algorithms, the computational complexity involved in the application of holographic technologies is greatly reduced, and as a result, computational speed is improved dramatically. Accordingly, holographic digitalization technologies, which aim at collecting, building, and processing the full-dimensional data of real-world object, are experiencing rapid growth. With communication technology moving into the 5G era and the rapid development and increasing market acceptance of cloud computing, big data, artificial intelligence (AI) and other technologies, holographic digitalization technologies will become the technological foundation of the next generation of the digital world.

Holographic technology services refer to the development and provision of holographic hardware and software that enable the implementation of holographic technology and the realization of various holographic applications.

Two subcategories of the holographic digitalization technologies, namely, holographic digital twin technology and holographic ADAS technology, have been growing at a faster pace. A digital twin is a dynamic virtual replication of a physical product or process. It comprises the model of a physical object, data from the object, a unique one-to-one correspondence to the object and the ability to monitor the object. By simulating how its real-world counterpart behaves, a digital twin becomes the virtual key to unlock more efficient product manufacturing and real-time analysis.

Holographic digital twin technology could be developed as software plugins on holographic displays. Since a digital twin uses real-world data and allows pre-visualization and real-world deployment to take place at the same time, it enables users to have lifelike dynamic preview of the real-life finished products in 3D without any VR/AR headgears or special glasses.

Facilitated by holographic digital twin technology, the digital world and the physical world will also have the potential to be fully intertwined, contributing to a new norm of digital twin-enabled cyber-physical world in the near future.

The market size of global holographic digital twin technology service industry in terms of revenue increased from USD13.0 million in 2017 to USD0.4 billion in 2020, representing a CAGR of 215.6% from 2017 to 2020.

Advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) are electronic systems in vehicles that assist drivers with advanced technologies. ADAS use sensors in vehicles to perceive the world around, and then either provide information to drivers for them to act upon, or operate the vehicle automatically based on what the systems perceived.

Holographic ADAS is a phase of the natural development of ADAS, incorporating the chips, modules, and software systems that implement holography technologies. Holographic ADAS gathers, refines, and classifies information as perceived. Through the use of holographic algorithm, holographic ADAS captures the most pertinent info of a real-world object, and presents holographic projection of the real-world object directly to the driver. Holographic ADAS improves the human-vehicle interaction and user experience. It can significantly reduce drivers’ cognitive workload and visual fatigue, improve response and operational speed, and further improve traffic compliance and traffic safety. The following chart sets forth the technical framework of holographic ADAS:

Holographic LiDAR is a sensor employed to support ADAS functions such as blind-spot monitoring, parking assist, traffic jam assist, and automatic emergency braking with advanced pedestrian protection.

The market size of global holographic ADAS technology service industry increased from USD27.0 million in 2017 to USD0.4 billion in 2020, representing a CAGR of 151.6% from 2017 to 2020.

In addition to carrying intelligent sensors and central computing units, autonomous vehicles can also be connected to traffic facilities, other road users, the cloud and even satellites through the application of communication technologies, to master road conditions as well as to interact with one another and share information. Fully autonomous vehicles, once achieved mass commercialization, will lead to the development of shared mobility and other methods to provide more efficient and clean ways for urban transportation. There is a big gap between the automotive electronics industry in China and globally. There is an opportunity for China’s automotive electronics industry to catch up under the evolving trend of vehicle intelligence, and thus potential room for growth for Chinese companies in related fields such as hardware manufacturing, like holographic LiDAR, and software development, like fusion algorithms.

Currently, autonomous driving technology can only support production of L3-level vehicles with small production capacity. L3-level vehicles are vehicles that have environmental detection capabilities and can make informed decisions for themselves, such as accelerating past a slow-moving vehicle. In the future, with mass production of cheaper supercomputer units and sensors with high precision detection ability, along with the accumulation of driving data and the rapid improvement of relevant algorithms, autonomous vehicles with high intelligence are expected to be launched in the next five to ten years.

In the robotic industry, holographical LiDAR detecting system can be used for improving the monitoring and response ability of autonomous mobile robots. These robots need to detect and classify objects in order to make appropriate decisions and to navigate. Holographical LiDAR detecting systems can provide detailed perception data to facilitate the robots in identifying and distinguishing objects.

This technology helps with reducing the use of labor and improves operational efficiency, thus reducing operational costs for businesses. The technology can be further applied to different types of robots for delivering, cleaning, inspection, etc., and the demand for the technology will largely increase based on development of the robot industry.

Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) can provide key support for the connection between vehicles and roads, people and networks, giving vehicles the ability to “see” and “thinking.” As the technology matures, it will bring about a profound transportation revolution, integrating a number of advanced applications into the vehicle itself, greatly improving road safety and air quality.

Information presentation and human-vehicle interaction of the existing V2X are still carried out through a central control display screen or voice, by which the sense of separation is unavoidable during driving. V2X based on holographic technology can accurately and timely present all the information of traffic, road conditions, vehicles, pedestrians, and weather conditions in front of the driver, bringing unprecedented user experience. In addition, the proportion of entertainment and leisure functions gradually increase, for both drivers and passengers, and holographic technology is expected to be the most critical technical support in this regard.

In the future, integrated intelligent hardware and open-source operating systems related to holographic technology will become the trend.

In construction area, the most-used holographic technology is also holographical LiDAR detecting. It allows quicker extraction of data to obtain three-dimensional information of the city, and can also capture a continuous stream of data so that data can be collected faster. The applications include the overall planning and design of a city, the reconstruction of an old city, the evaluation and monitoring of buildings and land resources, and for disaster emergency analysis, etc.

Compared with aerial photogrammetry technology, airborne LiDAR can better express the geometric characteristics of objects, is more advanced in describing discontinuous changes, and has a higher degree of automation. It enables the creation of a “digital city” system, which could greatly facilitate urban planning and construction. With the increasingly wide us of holographical LiDAR technology and the rapid development of related technologies, greater economic benefits and social benefits will emerge.

The use of holographic technology services in industrials sector includes measurement and inspection, which allows users to detect minimal deformation and shape deviation of components and machines to ensure safety and efficiency during daily operations. Holographic technology can be also used for remote communication. These applications can help industrial operations become smarter and more efficient.

Through collection and projection of minimal deformation of machines, holographic technologies help to largely improve the efficiency of equipment inspection. Production efficiency and overall operational performance of a business. In addition, the use of holographic telepresence, which achieved a new and innovative way of interaction among people, supported by the use of 5G networks, allows the projection of people appearing in a room in the near future despite that they are physically far away at the time of projection. As such, holographic telepresence can be applied to industrial operations that previously have distance limits. Such industrial uses include but are not limited to remote coaching.

Application of holographical technologies in smart city primarily involves (i) intelligent holographic mapping, namely, the use of LiDAR to detect and identify objects, and (ii) planning simulation using holographic digital twin technologies. Development of a smart city requires the build-up of an intelligent operations center, which in turn requires digitalization of the city. Based on data collected through intelligent mapping, holographic digital twins may perform simulations. Through this way, holographic technologies help with rigorous data collection for further reconstruction, timeliness transfer of information and more efficient decision making.

Technologies such as data acquisition, holographic extraction and data extraction allow users to conveniently collect and fuse data from the air, the ground, integrated data from the above-ground and underground, as well as spatial information and social attributes. Such collection and fusion of data in turn allow city digitalization to be more efficient and more precise.

Holographical technologies are popular in the area of healthcare and biology, as they can digitalize information and provide extensive visualization of data by constructing holograms based on the data available. By reconstructing a patient’s tissue in holograms, holographical technologies can assist medical personnel, both onsite and remotely, with regard to the diagnosis and treatment process, and to better monitor a patient’s recovery. Holograms could also be applied to scenarios such as medical education and research, as they could illustrate complicated theories in a more straightforward way. Holographical technologies also allow researchers and professionals to perform simulations before entering actual trials, thus improving overall efficiency.

So far, holography imaging is still costly, and there is a lack of skilled human resources. Medical holography is still under development and far from mature. In the future, reduction in costs of holography imaging would allow wide use of holographic technologies. Holographic technologies are expected to become one of the mainstream technologies in the future.

Scenarios where holographic technology services may be applied to the entertainment industries in China mainly include concerts, stage performances, TV shows, fashion shows and games etc. Holographic technology services can help with designing attractive performance presented with cutting-edge technologies, or improving the quality of the program. Holographic technology can produce a 3D aerial phantom, bringing amazing effects to the performance or gaming and providing better visual and interactive experience.

Market Trends and Opportunities of the Global Holographic Technology Service Industry

●

Client resources. Strong client bases and solid relationships with clients can help with the future development of players in the industry. Moreover, in the industrials sector and innovative industries that engage in massive integration of hardware and software, manufacturers suffer from a high switch cost of holographic technology services, which makes it harder for new entrants, who expectedly have no existing clients, to enter the market.

Golden Path is a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands and incorporated for the purpose of acquiring, engaging in a share exchange, share reconstruction and amalgamation with, purchasing all or substantially all of the assets of, entering into contractual arrangements with, or engaging in any other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. Although Golden Path’s efforts in identifying prospective target businesses will not be limited to a particular geographic region, it intends to focus on businesses that have a connection to the Asian market. Golden Path believes that it will add value to these businesses primarily by providing them with access to the U.S. capital markets.

Golden Path has 12 months from the date of Golden Path’s IPO (which occurred on June 24, 2021) to consummate a prospective business combination. However, if Golden Path anticipates that it may not be able to consummate a business combination within 12 months, it may, by resolution of its board of directors extend the period of time to consummate a business combination up to nine times, each by an additional one month (for a total of up to 21 months to complete a business combination). In the event Golden Path does not consummate a business combination within 12 months from the closing of its IPO (or up to 21 months as previously described), it will cease operations and liquidate the trust account and distribute the funds included therein to the holders of its securities sold in its IPO and dissolve.

The Merger Agreement was entered into by and among Golden Path, Golden Path Merger Sub and MC on September 10, 2021. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Golden Path Merger Sub will merge with and into MC, with MC continuing as the Surviving Company and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Golden Path. Golden Path shall continue to be publicly listed and will change its name to “MicroCloud Hologram Inc.” after the consummation of the Business Combination. Golden Path is also referred throughout this proxy statement/prospectus as New Golden Path.

The aggregate consideration for the Business Combination is $450,000,000, payable in the form of approximately 44,554,455 newly issued Golden Path ordinary shares to MC shareholders. At the closing of the Business Combination, the issued and outstanding shares in MC held by the former MC shareholders will be cancelled and ceased to exist, in exchange for the issue of an aggregate of approximately 44,554,455 New Golden Path ordinary shares. At the closing of the Business Combination, MC will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Golden Path. See section titled “Summary of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus — The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement” for more information.

Golden Path’s public shareholders will be provided with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the completion of a business combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account as of two business days prior to the consummation of a business combination, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable) divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations described herein. The amount in the trust account is initially anticipated to be approximately $10.10 per public share (subject to increase of up to an additional $0.30 per public share in the event that Golden Path’s Sponsor elects to extend the period of time to consummate a business combination). The per-share amount Golden Path will distribute to investors who properly redeem their shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions Golden Path will pay to the underwriters.

Golden Path’s public shareholders will be entitled to receive cash for any public shares to be redeemed only if they:

Golden Path’s sponsor, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with Golden Path, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares, private placement shares and public shares in connection with the completion of the Business Combination.

If a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee holds Golden Path Units for an individual or entity (such individual or entity, the “beneficial owner”), the beneficial owner must instruct such nominee to separate the beneficial owner’s Golden Path Units into their individual component parts. The beneficial owner’s nominee must send written instructions by facsimile to the transfer agent. Such written instructions must include the number of Golden Path Units to be separated and the nominee holding such Golden Path Units. The beneficial owner’s nominee must also initiate electronically, using DTC’s DWAC system, a withdrawal of the relevant Golden Path Units and a deposit of an equal number of Golden Path ordinary shares, Golden Path Warrants and Golden Path Rights. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit the nominee to exercise the beneficial owner’s redemption rights upon the separation of the Golden Path ordinary shares from the Golden Path Units. While this is typically done electronically the same business day, beneficial owners should allow at least one full business day to accomplish the separation. If beneficial owners fail to cause their Golden Path ordinary shares to be separated in a timely manner, they will likely not be able to exercise their redemption rights.

In seeking shareholder approval of the Business Combination, Golden Path’s memorandum and articles of association provides that a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the ordinary shares sold in Golden Path’s IPO, which Golden Path refers to as the “Excess Shares.” However, Golden Path would not be restricting shareholders’ ability to vote all of their shares (including Excess Shares) for or against the Business Combination.

Dissolution and Subsequent Liquidation of Trust Account if No Business Combination

If Golden Path does not complete a business combination within 12 months (or up to 21 months, as discussed below) from the closing of its IPO (completed on June 24, 2021), it will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding public shares and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of its remaining shareholders and board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject (in the case of (ii) and (iii) above) to Golden Path’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

In connection with Golden Path’s IPO and consummation of the private placement with its sponsor, Golden Path issued an aggregate of 6,020,500 rights to acquire an aggregate of 602,050 ordinary shares. If Golden Path enters into a definitive agreement for a business combination in which New Golden Path will be the surviving entity, each holder of a right will receive one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon consummation of the Business Combination, even if the holder of such right redeemed all ordinary shares held by him, her or it in connection with the Business Combination or an amendment to Golden Path’s memorandum and articles of association with respect to Golden Path’s pre-business combination activities. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of rights in order to receive his, her or its additional ordinary shares upon consummation of a business combination as the consideration related thereto has been included in the unit purchase price paid for by investors in Golden Path’s IPO. The shares issuable upon exchange of the rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of Golden Path). Holders of rights are not entitled to any redemption of voting rights. If Golden Path is unable to complete an business combination within the required time period and Golden Path liquidates the funds held in the trust account, holders of rights will not receive any of such funds with respect to their rights, nor will they receive any distribution from Golden Path’s assets held outside of the trust account with respect to such rights, and the rights will expire worthless.

In connection with Golden Path’s IPO and consummation of the private placement with its sponsor, Golden Path issued an aggregate of 6,020,500 warrants to acquire an aggregate of 3,010,250 ordinary shares. The warrants purchased in Golden Path’s IPO have been issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between VStock Transfer LLC, as warrant agent, and Golden Path. Each warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing on the later of 12 months from the date of this prospectus or the completion of the Business Combination. Because the warrants may only be exercised for whole numbers of shares, only an even number of warrants may be exercised at any given time. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a warrant holder may exercise its warrants only for a whole number of shares. This means that only an even number of warrants may be exercised at any given time by a warrant holder. The warrants will expire five years after the completion of the Business Combination, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

Golden Path will not be obligated to deliver any ordinary shares pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the ordinary shares underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to Golden Path satisfying its obligations described below with respect to registration. Golden Path has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of the Business Combination, Golden Path will use best efforts to file, and within 60 business days following the Business Combination to have declared effective, a registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants.

Once the warrants become exercisable, Golden Path may call the warrants for redemption (excluding the private placement warrants):

If and when the warrants become redeemable by Golden Path, Golden Path may not exercise redemption rights if the issuance of shares upon exercise of the warrants is not exempt from registration or qualification under applicable state blue sky laws or Golden Path is unable to effect such registration or qualification.

Holders of warrants are not entitled to voting rights or any right to redemption in the event that Golden Path consummates a business combination.

Golden Path currently maintains its principal executive offices at 100 Park Avenue New York, NY 10017. The cost for this space is included in the $10,000 per month fee that Golden Path will pay an affiliate of its Sponsor for office space, administrative and support services. Golden Path considers that its current office space, combined with the other office space otherwise available to its executive officers and directors, adequate for Golden Path’s current operations.

Golden Path has two executive officers. These individuals are not obligated to devote any specific number of hours to Golden Path’s matters and intend to devote only as much time as they deem necessary to Golden Path’s affairs. The amount of time they will devote in any time period will vary based on whether a target business has been selected for the Business Combination and the stage of the Business Combination process the company is in. Accordingly, once management locates a suitable target business to acquire, they will spend more time investigating such target business and negotiating and processing the business combination (and consequently spend more time to Golden Path’s affairs) than they would prior to locating a suitable target business. Golden Path presently expects its executive officers and directors to devote such amount of time as they reasonably believe is necessary to Golden Path’s business (which could range from only a few hours a week while Golden Path is trying to locate a potential target business to a majority of their time as Golden Path moves into serious negotiations with a target business for a business combination). Golden Path does not intend to have any full time employees prior to the consummation of a business combination.

The following table sets forth selected historical financial information derived from Golden Path’s unaudited financial statements as of June 30, 2021 and for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 and the audited financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, each of which is included elsewhere in this proxy statement. Such financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this proxy statement.

The historical results presented below are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period. You should carefully read the following selected financial information in conjunction with the section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Golden Path and Golden Path’s financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this proxy statement.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF GOLDEN PATH

Golden Path is a blank check company incorporated on May 9, 2018 in the Cayman Islands with limited liability (meaning Golden Path’s shareholders have no liability, as members of Golden Path, for the liabilities of Golden Path over and above the amount already paid for their shares) formed for the purpose of acquiring, engaging in a share exchange, share reconstruction and amalgamation with, purchasing all or substantially all of the assets of, or engaging in any other similar Business Combination with one or more businesses or entities. Golden Path intends to effectuate a Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of its IPO and the sale of the Private Units that occurred simultaneously with the completion of its IPO, its shares, debt or a combination of cash, shares and debt.

On June 24, 2021, Golden Path consummated its initial public offering of 5,750,000 units, inclusive of the over-allotment option of units. Each unit consists of one ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share (“Share”), one warrant (“Warrant”) entitling its holder to purchase one-half of one ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per ordinary share, and one right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon the consummation of the Golden Path’s initial business combination (together, the “Units”). The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $57,500,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, Golden Path consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) with its sponsor, Greenland Asset Management Corporation, for the purchase of 270,500 Units (the “Private Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit, generating total proceeds of $2,705,000, pursuant to the Private Placement Unit Purchase Agreement, a copy of which was filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement for the IPO as filed with the SEC.

The Sponsor has previously loaned the Company the sum of $453,364, evidenced by a note dated as of December 21, 2020 (as previously filed as Exhibit 10.9 to the Golden Path Registration Statement) which loan was payable upon the earlier of completion of the IPO or December 31, 2021. In connection with the completion of the IPO, the Sponsor instructed the Company to offset payment of the note with a corresponding portion of the subscription price for the Private Unit purchase.

Each Private Unit purchased by the Sponsor consists of one ordinary share, one right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of an ordinary share upon the consummation of a business combination and one private placement warrant exercisable to purchase one-half of one ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per whole share.

As of June 24, 2021, a total of $58,075,002 of the net proceeds from the IPO and the Private Placement Unit Purchase Agreement transaction completed with the Sponsor (as described in Item 3.02 below), Greenland Asset Management Corporation, were deposited in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders, established with Wilmington Trust, National Association acting as trustee, at an account at Morgan Stanley.

Golden Path incurred transaction costs for its IPO of $2,887,500, consisting of $1,150,000 of underwriting fees, $1,437,500 of deferred underwriting fees and $300,000 of other offering costs. In addition, at June 24, 2021, cash of $1,935 and cash held in escrow of $2,251,636 were held outside of the Trust Account (as defined below) and is available for the payment of offering costs and for working capital purposes net with $1,734,988 transferred to Trust Account on June 24, 2021. The Company repaid the sum of $453,364 to its Sponsor in repayment of loans previously made by the Sponsor.

The funds held in trust has been invested only in United States “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act having a maturity of 180 days or less, or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, so that Golden Path is not deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the trust account that may be released to Golden Path to pay income or other tax obligations, the proceeds will not be released from the trust account until the earlier of the completion of a business combination or Golden Path’s redemption of 100% of the outstanding public shares if Golden Path has not completed a business combination in the required time period. The proceeds held in the trust account may be used as consideration to pay the sellers of a target business with which Golden Path completes a business combination. Any amounts not paid as consideration to the sellers of the target business may be used to finance operations of the target business.

Golden Path’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the IPO and the private placement, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally towards consummating a business combination successfully.

Golden Path’s entire activity from inception up to June 24, 2021 was in preparation for its IPO. Since the IPO, Golden Path’s activity has been limited to the evaluation of business combination candidates, and it will not be generating any operating revenues until the closing and completion of an initial business combination. Golden Path expects to incur increased expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses. Golden Path expects that its expenses will increase substantially after this period.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2021, Golden Path had a net loss of $143,212, which was comprised of general and administrative expenses, interest income and change in fair value of warrant liabilities.

As of June 30, 2021, Golden Path had cash of $509,568. Until the consummation of the IPO, Golden Path’s only source of liquidity was an initial purchase of ordinary shares by the Sponsor, monies loaned by the Sponsor under a certain unsecured promissory note and advances from the Sponsor.

On June 24, 2021, Golden Path consummated the IPO of 5,750,000 Units (which includes the full exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option), at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $57,500,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the initial public offering, Golden Path consummated the sale of 270,500 Private Units, at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $2,705,000.

Following the initial public offering and the exercise of the over-allotment option, a total of $57,500,000 was placed in the Trust Account. Golden Path incurred $2,887,500, consisting of $1,150,000 of underwriting fees, $1,437,500 of deferred underwriting fees and $300,000 of other offering costs.

Golden Path intends to use substantially all of the net proceeds of the initial public offering, including the funds held in the Trust Account, to acquire a target business or businesses and to pay Golden Path’s expenses relating thereto. To the extent that Golden Path’s share capital is used in whole or in part as consideration to effect the Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account, as well as any other net proceeds not expended, will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business. Such working capital funds could be used in a variety of ways including continuing or expanding the target business’ operations, for strategic acquisitions and for marketing, research and development of existing or new products. Such funds could also be used to repay any operating expenses or finders’ fees which Golden Path had incurred prior to the completion of the Business Combination if the funds available to Golden Path outside of the Trust Account were insufficient to cover such expenses.

Golden Path intends to use the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete a business combination.

Golden Path does not believe it will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating Golden Path’s business. This belief is based on the fact that while Golden Path may begin preliminary due diligence of a target business in connection with an indication of interest, it intends to undertake in-depth due diligence, depending on the circumstances of the relevant prospective acquisition, only after Golden Path has negotiated and signed a letter of intent or other preliminary agreement that addresses the terms of Golden Path’s initial business combination. However, if Golden Path’s estimate of the costs of undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating the Business Combination is less than the actual amount necessary to do so, or the amount of interest available to use from the trust account is minimal as a result of the current interest rate environment, Golden Path may be required to raise additional capital, the amount, availability and cost of which is currently unascertainable. In this event, Golden Path could seek such additional capital through loans or additional investments from members of Golden Path’s management team, but such members of the management team are not under any obligation to advance funds to, or invest in, Golden Path. In the event that the Business Combination does not close, Golden Path may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts, but no proceeds from Golden Path’s Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Such loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The notes would either be paid upon consummation of the Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of the notes may be converted upon consummation of the Business Combination into additional Private Units at a price of $10.00 per unit. The terms of such loans by Golden Path’s initial shareholders, officers and directors, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans.

Golden Path has no obligations, assets or liabilities which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2021. Golden Path does not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. Golden Path has not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.

Golden Path does not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities other than an agreement to pay Golden Path’s Sponsor a monthly fee of $10,000 for general and administrative services, including office space, utilities and administrative services to Golden Path. Golden Path began incurring these fees on June 24, 2021 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of the Business Combination and the Company’s liquidation.

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Golden Path has not identified any significant accounting policies.

Golden Path accounts for its outstanding IPO related warrants as liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of equity at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as liabilities at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations.

ASC 815 states that a warrant may be classified as a component of equity only if, among other things, the warrant is indexed to the issuer’s common stock. A warrant is not indexed to the issuer’s common stock if the terms of the warrant require an adjustment to the exercise price upon a specified event and that event is not an input to the fair value of the warrant. Golden Path concluded that the Company’s public and private warrants are not indexed to the Company’s ordinary shares in the manner contemplated by ASC 815. As such Golden Path classified the warrants as derivative liabilities in its financial statements. The Company is required to measure the fair value of the warrants at the end of each reporting period and recognize changes in the fair value from the prior period in the Company’s operating results for each period.

Golden Path accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible conversion in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within Golden Path’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. Golden Path’s ordinary shares features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of Golden Path’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of Golden Path’s balance sheets.

Golden Path applies the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption which are not currently redeemable and are not redeemable at fair value, have been excluded from the calculation of basic net loss per ordinary share since such shares, if redeemed, only participate in their pro rata share of the Trust Account earnings. Golden Path’s net loss is adjusted for the portion of income that is attributable to ordinary shares subject to redemption, as these shares only participate in the earnings of the Trust Account and not Golden Path’s income or losses.

As of June 30, 2021, Golden Path was not subject to any market or interest rate risk. Following the consummation of Golden Path’s IPO, the net proceeds of the IPO, including amounts in the Trust Account, have been invested in U.S. government treasury bills, notes or bonds with a maturity of 180 days or less or in certain money market funds that invest solely in U.S. treasuries. Due to the short-term nature of these investments, Golden Path believes there will be no associated material exposure to interest rate risk.

On April 5, 2012, the JOBS Act was signed into law. The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. Golden Path will qualify as an “emerging growth company” and under the JOBS Act will be allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies. Golden Path is electing to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards, and as a result, Golden Path may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. As such, Golden Path’s financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.

Additionally, Golden Path is in the process of evaluating the benefits of relying on the other reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, if, as an “emerging growth company”, Golden Path chooses to rely on such exemptions it may not be required to, among other things, (i) provide an independent registered public accounting firm’s attestation report on Golden Path’s system of internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404, (ii) provide all of the compensation disclosure that may be required of non-emerging growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, (iii) comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the PCAOB regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements(auditor discussion and analysis), and (iv) disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO’s compensation to median employee compensation. These exemptions will apply for a period of five years following the consummation of the Business Combination or until Golden Path is no longer an “emerging growth company,” whichever is earlier.

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Golden Path in its Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to Golden Path’s management, including Golden Path’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Under the supervision and with the participation of Golden Path’s management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, Golden Path conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of Golden Path’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2021, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act.

On June 30, 2021, Golden Path revised its prior position on accounting for warrants and concluded that Golden Path’s previously issued balance as of June 24, 2021 should not be relied on because of a misapplication in the guidance on warrant accounting. However, the non-cash adjustments to the balance do not impact the amounts previously reported for Golden Path’s cash and cash equivalents, and total assets.

Other than the matter disclosed above, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter of June 30, 2021 covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

In May 2018, the Company issued one ordinary share to the Sponsor for no consideration. In January 2021, the Company effected a 10 for 1 share split, resulting in an aggregate of 10 ordinary shares outstanding. All share and per-share amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect the share split. On January 6, 2021, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 1,150,000 founder shares for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.02 per share. On March 26, 2021, the Company issued an additional 287,500 founder shares to our sponsor in connection with a recapitalization.

The 1,437,500 founder shares (for purposes hereof referred to as the “Founder Shares”).

The founders and Golden Path officers and directors have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares (except to certain permitted transferees) until, with respect to 50% of the Founder Shares, the earlier of (i) six months after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, or (ii) the date on which the closing price of Golden Path’s ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after a Business Combination, with respect to the remaining 50% of the Founder Shares, upon six months after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, or earlier, in each case, if, subsequent to a Business Combination, Golden Path consummates a subsequent liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of Golden Path’s shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

As of June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, the Sponsor had advanced to Golden Path an aggregate of $27,931 and $36,784, respectively. The advances are non-interest bearing and due on demand.

On December 21, 2020, Golden Path issued an unsecured promissory note to the Sponsor, pursuant to which Golden Path may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $300,000 (the “Promissory Note”). The Promissory Note is non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2021 or (ii) the consummation of the Initial Public Offering (see Note 4). The outstanding balance under the Promissory Note was repaid at the closing of the Initial Public Offering on June 24, 2021. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the principal amount due and owing under the Promissory Note was $0 and $50,000 respectively.

An affiliate of the Sponsor agreed, commencing on June 24, 2021 through the earlier of Golden Path’s consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation, to make available to Golden Path certain general and administrative services, including office space, utilities and administrative services, as Golden Path may require from time to time. Golden Path has agreed to pay the affiliate of the Sponsor $10,000 per month for these services.

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, Golden Path’s Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or Golden Path’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan Golden Path funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). Such Working Capital Loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The notes would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of notes may be converted upon consummation of a Business Combination into additional Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, Golden Path may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans.

Golden Path may extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to nine times, each by an additional month (for a total of 21 months to complete a Business Combination). In order to extend the time available for Golden Path to consummate a Business Combination, the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees must deposit into the Trust Account $191,667 (approximately $0.033 per Public Share), up to an aggregate of $1,725,000, or $0.30 per Public Share, on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each one month extension. Any such payments would be made in the form of a loan. The terms of the promissory note to be issued in connection with any such loans have not yet been negotiated. If Golden Path completes a Business Combination, Golden Path would repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to Golden Path. If Golden Path does not complete a Business Combination, it will not repay such loans. Furthermore, the letter agreement with the shareholders contains a provision pursuant to which the Sponsor has agreed to waive its right to be repaid for such loans in the event that Golden Path does not complete a Business Combination. The Sponsor and its affiliates or designees are not obligated to fund the Trust Account to extend the time for Golden Path to complete a Business Combination.

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

The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2021 gives pro forma effect to the Business Combination as if it had been consummated as of that date. The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and for the year ended December 31, 2020 give pro forma effect to the Business Combination as if it had occurred as of January 1, 2020. This information should be read together with MC’s and Golden Path’s respective audited and unaudited financial statements and related notes, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of MC,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Golden Path” and other financial information included elsewhere in this proxy statement.

The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2021 has been prepared using the following:

The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 2021 has been prepared using the following:

The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 has been prepared using the following:

On September 10, 2021, Golden Path entered into the Merger Agreement with the Golden Path Merger Sub and MC. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Golden Path Merger Sub will merge with and into MC, with MC being the surviving entity and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Golden Path. New Golden Path refers to Golden Path after the consummation of the Business Combination The aggregate consideration for the Business Combination is $450,000,000, payable in the form of 44,554,455 newly issued Golden Path ordinary shares valued at $10.10 per share to MC and its shareholders. At the closing of the Business Combination, the issued and outstanding shares in MC held by the former MC shareholders will be cancelled and ceased to exist, in exchange for the issue of an aggregate of 44,554,455 Golden Path Ordinary. For more information about the Business Combination, please see the section entitled “Proposals No.1 — The Business Combination Proposal.” A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached to the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A.

The Business Combination will be accounted for as a reverse merger in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Golden Path will be treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. This determination was primarily based on the holders of MC expecting to have a majority of the voting power of the post-combination company, MC senior management comprising substantially all of the senior management of the post-combination company, the relative size of MC compared to Golden Path, and MC operations comprising the ongoing operations of the post-combination company. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination will be treated as the equivalent of MC issuing shares for the net assets of Golden Path, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Golden Path will be stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination will be those of MC.

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

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

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information has been prepared assuming two alternative levels of redemption into cash of Golden Path’s ordinary shares:

Included in the shares outstanding and weighted average shares outstanding as presented in the pro forma combined financial statements are 44,554,455 ordinary shares to be issued to MC shareholders and 380,000 ordinary shares to be issued to Peace Asset Management Ltd., under Scenarios 1 and 2.

As a result of the Business Combination and immediately following the closing of the Business Combination, assuming no Golden Path shareholders elect to redeem their shares for cash, MC will own approximately 84.07% of the outstanding Golden Path ordinary shares, the former shareholders of Golden Path will own approximately 15.21% of the outstanding Golden Path ordinary shares, and Peace Asset Management, a private held entity who facilitated the business combination, will own approximately 0.72 % as of June 30, 2021 (in each case, not giving effect to any shares issuable to them upon the exercise of any Golden Path warrants).

If 5,750,000 ordinary shares are redeemed for cash, represents all public shares issued and outstanding, after giving effect to payments to redeeming shareholders, MC will own approximately 94.31% of the outstanding Golden Path ordinary shares, Golden Path former shareholders will own approximately 4.89% of the outstanding Golden Path ordinary shares, and Peace Asset Management, a private held entity who facilitated the business combination, will own approximately 0.80 % as of June 30, 2021 (in each case, not giving effect to any shares issuable to them upon the exercise of any Golden Path warrants).

Subject to any other special rights applicable to the shareholders, any vacancies on our Board of Directors may be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors present and voting at the meeting of our board or by a majority of the holders of our founder shares.

Our officers are elected by the Board of Directors and serve at the discretion of the Board of Directors, rather than for specific terms of office. In addition, our shareholders may by ordinary resolution appoint any person to be a director or remove any director. Our Board of Directors is authorized to appoint persons to the offices set forth in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association as it deems appropriate. Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide that our officers may consist of a Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, Vice Presidents, Secretary, Assistant Secretaries, Treasurer and such other offices as may be determined by the Board of Directors.

An “independent director” is defined generally as a person who has no material relationship with the listed company (either directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the company). Upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, we expect to have two “independent directors” as defined in the Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules prior to completion of this offering. Our board has determined that each of Messrs. Xu Zhang and Hai Lin and Jun Liu are independent directors under applicable SEC and Nasdaq rules. Following the completion of our initial public offering, our independent directors had regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present.

None of our officers or directors have received any cash or non-cash compensation for services rendered to us. Commencing on the date that our securities are first listed on the Nasdaq through the earlier of consummation of our initial business combination and our liquidation, we paid an affiliate of our sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, administrative and support services. Our sponsor, officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee reviewed on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our sponsor, officers, directors or our or their affiliates.

After the completion of our initial business combination, directors or members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting, management or other fees from the combined company. All of these fees were fully disclosed to shareholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer materials or proxy solicitation materials furnished to our shareholders in connection with a proposed business combination. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation was known at the time such materials are distributed, because the directors of the post-combination business was responsible for determining officer and director compensation. Any compensation to be paid to our officers were determined by a compensation committee constituted solely by independent directors.

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

Our Board of Directors has three standing committees: an audit committee and a compensation committee and a nominating committee. Each committee operate under a charter that has been approved by our board and have the composition and responsibilities described below. Subject to phase-in rules and a limited exception, the Nasdaq rules and Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act require that the audit committee of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors, and the Nasdaq rules require that the compensation committee of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors.

We have established an audit committee of the Board of Directors. The members of our audit committee are Messrs. Jun Liu, Hai Lin and Xu Zhang. Mr. Jun Liu serves as chairman of the audit committee.

Each member of the audit committee is financially literate and our Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Liu qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in applicable SEC rules.

We adopted an audit committee charter, which detailed the principal functions of the audit committee, including:

We have established a compensation committee of the Board of Directors. The members of our Compensation Committee are Messrs. Xu Zhang and Hai Lin and Jun Liu. Mr. Hai Lin serves as chairman of the compensation committee. We adopted a compensation committee charter, which detail the principal functions of the compensation committee, including:

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

We have also established a nominating committee of the board of directors, which consist of Messrs. Xu Zhang, Hai Lin and Jun Liu. Mr. Xu Zhang serves as chairman of the Nomination committee. The nominating committee is responsible for overseeing the selection of persons to be nominated to serve on our board of directors. The nominating committee considers persons identified by its members, management, shareholders, investment bankers and others.

The guidelines for selecting nominees, which are specified in the Nominating Committee Charter, generally provide that persons to be nominated:

The Nominating Committee considers a number of qualifications relating to management and leadership experience, background and integrity and professionalism in evaluating a person’s candidacy for membership on the board of directors. The nominating committee may require certain skills or attributes, such as financial or accounting experience, to meet specific board needs that arise from time to time and also consider the overall experience and makeup of its members to obtain a broad and diverse mix of board members. The nominating committee does not distinguish among nominees recommended by shareholders and other persons.

None of our officers currently serves, and in the past year has not served, (i) as a member of the compensation committee or Board of Directors of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on our compensation committee, or (ii)as a member of the compensation committee of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on our Board of Directors.

We have adopted a Code of Ethics applicable to our directors, officers and employees. We filed a copy of our form of Code of Ethics and our audit committee charter as exhibits to the registration statement prior to its effectiveness. You will be able to review these documents by accessing our public filings at the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, a copy of the Code of Ethics will be provided without charge upon request from us. We intend to disclose any amendments to or waivers of certain provisions of our Code of Ethics in a Current Report on Form 8-K. See “Where You Can Find Additional Information.”

The NASDAQ listing standards require that a majority of our Board of Directors be independent. An “independent director” is defined generally as a person who has no material relationship with the listed company (either directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the company). Upon closing of the Merger, we expect to have three “independent directors” as defined in the NASDAQ listing standards and applicable SEC rules. Our board has determined that each of Mi Zhou, Han Qin and Jun Liu are independent directors under applicable SEC and NASDAQ rules. Following the completion of our initial public offering, our independent directors will have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present.

Upon the closing of the Business Combination, New Golden Path intends to re-constitute the membership of the audit committee, compensation committee and nominating and corporate governance committee under its Board of Directors. The existing charters previously adopted by Golden Path following its IPO will continue in effect upon the closing of the Business Combination. A copy of the charters is available for viewing on the SEC’s website at sec.gov.edgar. Each committee’s members and functions are described below.

New Golden Path’s audit committee will consist of 3 Independent Directors, chaired by Mi Zhou. New Golden Path has determined that each of them satisfies the “independence” requirements of Rule 5605(c)(2) of the Listing Rules of the Nasdaq and meet the independence standards under Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act, as amended. New Golden Path has determined that Mi Zhou qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert.” The audit committee oversees New Golden Path’s accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of its financial statements. The audit committee is responsible for, among other things:

We have also established a nominating committee of the board of directors, which will consist of Mi Zhou, Han Qin and Jun Liu. [ ] will serve as chairman of the Nomination committee. The nominating committee is responsible for overseeing the selection of persons to be nominated to serve on our board of directors. The nominating committee considers persons identified by its members, management, stockholders, investment bankers and others.

The guidelines for selecting nominees, which are specified in the Nominating Committee Charter, generally provide that persons to be nominated:

The Nominating Committee will consider a number of qualifications relating to management and leadership experience, background and integrity and professionalism in evaluating a person’s candidacy for membership on the board of directors. The nominating committee may require certain skills or attributes, such as financial or accounting experience, to meet specific board needs that arise from time to time and will also consider the overall experience and makeup of its members to obtain a broad and diverse mix of board members. The nominating committee does not distinguish among nominees recommended by stockholders and other persons.

We have established a compensation committee of the Board of Directors. The members of our Compensation Committee will be Mi Zhou, Han Qin and Jun Liu. [ ] will serve as chairman of the compensation committee. We have adopted a compensation committee charter, which details the principal functions of the compensation committee, including:

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

Under Cayman Islands law, New Golden Path’s directors owe fiduciary duties to New Golden Path, including a duty of loyalty, a duty to act honestly and a duty to act in what they consider in good faith to be in New Golden Path’s best interests. New Golden Path’s directors must also exercise their powers only for a proper purpose. New Golden Path’s directors also owe to New Golden Path a duty to exercise skills they actually possess and such care and diligence that a reasonably prudent person would exercise in comparable circumstances. It was previously considered that a director need not exhibit in the performance of his duties a greater degree of skill than may reasonably be expected from a person of his knowledge and experience. However, English and Commonwealth courts have moved towards an objective standard with regard to the required skill and care and these authorities are likely to be followed in the Cayman Islands. In fulfilling their duty of care to New Golden Path, New Golden Path’s directors must ensure compliance with New Golden Path’s Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended and restated from time to time. New Golden Path has the right to seek damages if a duty owed by its directors is breached. In limited exceptional circumstances, a shareholder may have the right to seek damages in New Golden Path’s name if a duty owed by New Golden Path’s directors is breached. New Golden Path’s Board of Directors has all the powers necessary for managing, and for directing and supervising, New Golden Path’s business affairs. The functions and powers of New Golden Path’s Board of Directors include, among others, (i) convening shareholders’ annual and extraordinary general meetings and reporting its work to shareholders at such meetings, (ii) declaring dividends and distributions, (iii) appointing directors or officers and determining their terms of offices and responsibilities, (iv) exercising the borrowing powers of New Golden Path and mortgaging property of New Golden Path, and (v) approving the transfer of shares of New Golden Path, including the registering of such shares in New Golden Path’s register of members.

New Golden Path’s officers are elected by and serve at the discretion of the board. In addition, shareholders of New Golden Path may by ordinary resolution appoint any person to be a director. Each director holds office for the term fixed by the ordinary resolution or fixed by the resolution of the directors appointing such director, as applicable, but such term shall not exceed two years. Shareholders of New Golden Path may by ordinary resolution remove a director. In addition, a director will be removed from office automatically if, among other things, the director (i) becomes bankrupt or makes any arrangement or composition with his creditors; (ii) in the opinion of a registered medical practitioner by whom he is being treated he becomes physically or mentally incapable of acting as a director; (iii) is made subject to any law relating to mental health or incompetence, whether by court order or otherwise; (iv) is prohibited by the law of the Cayman Islands from acting as a director; (v) without the consent of the other directors, is absent from meetings of directors for a continuous period of six months; or (vi) is removed from office by all of the other directors (being not less than two in number), either by a resolution passed by all of the other directors at a meeting of the directors duly convened and held in accordance with New Golden Path’s Memorandum and Articles of Association or by a resolution in writing signed by all of the other directors.

A director may, subject to any separate requirement for audit committee approval under applicable law or applicable Nasdaq rules, vote in respect of any contract or transaction in which he or she is interested, provided that the nature of the interest of any directors in such contract or transaction is disclosed by him or her at or prior to its consideration and any vote in that matter.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, MC paid an aggregate of RMB336,880 in cash to its directors and executive officers. The cash compensation for each director and executive officer for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 is set forth below. Golden Path does not pay compensation to its directors or officers.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND
MANAGEMENT PRIOR TO THE BUSINESS COMBINATION

The following table sets forth as of [●], 2021 the number of Golden Path ordinary shares beneficially owned by (i) each person who is known by Golden Path to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of Golden Path’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares (ii) each of Golden Path’s officers and directors; and (iii) all of Golden Path’s officers and directors as a group. As of [●], Golden Path had 7,458,000 ordinary shares issued and outstanding.

Unless otherwise indicated, Golden Path believes that all persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all Golden Path ordinary shares beneficially owned by them. The following table does not reflect beneficial ownership of the warrants or rights included in the units offered by this Form 10-K or the private warrants included the private placement as these warrants are not exercisable and these rights are not convertible within 60 days of the date of this Form 10-K. As Golden Path’s IPO registration statement and Form 8A were not declared effective by the SEC until June 21, 2021, Golden Path was not a filing company under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended until June 21, 2021. As of [●], 2021, there were 7,458,000 ordinary shares (assuming the ordinary shares are split from the units which has not yet occurred) issued and outstanding and upon which we base the information in the table below.

Golden Path’s sponsor, officers and Mr. Tiger Zhang are deemed to be Golden Path’s “promoters” as such term is defined under the federal securities laws. See “— Related Party Transactions” for additional information regarding Golden Path’s relationships with its promoters. Mr. Zhang is a member of Golden Path’s sponsor and has provided services related to Golden Path’s formation and its IPO. Mr. Zhang received membership interests in Golden Path’s sponsor, as compensation for such services, such membership interests reflect pecuniary interest in approximately 50,000 founder shares.

The following table sets forth the number of MC ordinary shares beneficially owned by each MC shareholder as of September 8, 2021. As of September 8, 2021, MC had 132,000,000 ordinary shares issued and outstanding.

Unless otherwise indicated, New Golden Path believes that all persons named in the table will have, immediately after the consummation of the Business Combination, sole voting and investment power with respect to all New Golden Path’s securities beneficially owned by them.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with SEC rules and includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Except as indicated by the footnotes below, New Golden Path believes, based on the information furnished to it, that the persons and entities named in the table below will have, immediately after the consummation of the Business Combination, sole voting and investment power with respect to all stock that they beneficially own, subject to applicable community property laws. All New Golden Path ordinary shares subject to options or warrants exercisable within 60 days of the consummation of the Business Combination are deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned by the persons holding those options or warrants for the purpose of computing the number of shares beneficially owned and the percentage ownership of that person. They are not, however, deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

Subject to the paragraph above, percentage ownership of issued shares is based on 52,994,505 New Golden Path Ordinary Shares to be issued and outstanding upon consummation of the Business Combination. Such amount (i) includes the issuance of the 44,934,455 New Golden Path Ordinary Shares in the Acquisition Merger, including 44,554,455 New Golden Path Ordinary Shares to be issued to the current MC shareholders and 380,000 New Golden Path Ordinary Shares to be issued to Peace Asset Management Ltd.; (ii) assuming there are no Golden Path shareholders who exercise their redemption rights and an aggregate of 602,050 shares are issued upon conversion of the GPCO Rights, including private rights; and (iii) assumes that no exercise of the New Golden Path Warrants.

According to the Provisions on Guiding the Direction of Foreign Investment, which took effect on April 1, 2002, industries in the PRC are classified into four categories: “permitted foreign investment industries”, “encouraged foreign investment industries”, “restricted foreign investment industries” and “prohibited foreign investment industries”. “Encouraged foreign investment industries”, “restricted foreign investment industries” and “prohibited foreign investment industries” are stipulated in the Catalog. Industries which do not fall in any of these three categories are regarded as “permitted foreign investment industries”. The Catalog is promulgated and is amended by the NDRC and the MOFCOM. The Negative List, which was last amended on June 23, 2020 and subsequently enforced on July 23, 2020 by the NDRC and the MOFCOM and replace the Catalog, sets forth management measures for the market entry of foreign investors, such as equity requirements and senior manager requirements. According to the Negative List, any internet cultural activities (except for the provision of music) is a foreign investment prohibited industry, and foreign-invested shares of value-added telecommunications services must not exceed 50% (excluding e-commerce, domestic multi-party communications services, store and forward services and call center services) of the business.

An enterprise which establishes, operates and manages within the Chinese territory is subject to the PRC Company Law last amended on October 26, 2018. The PRC Company Law is also applicable to a foreign investment company. Nevertheless, where there are other special laws relating to foreign investment, such laws shall prevail.

The procedures for the establishment of a wholly foreign-owned enterprise, the verification, registration and approval procedures, registered capital requirements, foreign exchange restrictions, accounting practices, taxation and labor matters are subject to the Law on Wholly Foreign-invested Enterprises of the PRC, which was last amended on September 3, 2016 and subsequently enforced on October 1, 2016 and the Implementation Regulations for Law on Wholly Foreign-invested Enterprises of the PRC, which was last amended on February 19, 2014 and subsequently enforced on March 1, 2014 and Provisional Administration Measures for the Registration of the Formation and Changes of Foreign Invested Enterprises (the “Measures”) which was last amended on June 29, 2018 and subsequently enforced on June 30, 2018.

According to the Measures, where the incorporation of foreign-invested enterprises does not fall within the scope of the Negative List, such enterprises shall file and submit the record-filing information on the incorporation of foreign-invested enterprises simultaneously when they go through the registration procedures for incorporation. Within the record-filing scope of the Measures, in the case of a change of basic information of the foreign-invested enterprises or their investors, a change of equity (shares) or cooperation interest of the foreign-invested enterprises, merger, division or dissolution, mortgage or transfer of foreign invested enterprise’s property or rights and interests to others and other matters, the foreign-invested enterprise shall file the relevant documents online within 30 days upon occurrence of such changes via the comprehensive administrative system.

On December 30, 2019, the MOC and the State Administration of Market Regulation issued the Measures for the Reporting of Foreign Investment Information, which came into effect on January 1, 2020 and replaced the Measures. Since January 1, 2020, for foreign investors carrying out investment activities directly or indirectly in China, the foreign investors or foreign-invested enterprises shall submit investment information to the commerce authorities pursuant to these measures.

On March 15, 2019, the NPC approved the Foreign Investment Law, which became effective on January 1, 2020, and replaced the Sino-foreign Equity Joint Venture Enterprise Law, the Sino-foreign Cooperative Joint Venture Enterprise Law and the Wholly Foreign-invested Enterprises Law. On December 26, 2019, the State Council issued the Regulations on Implementing the Foreign Investment Law of the PRC, which came into effect on January 1, 2020, and replaced the Regulations on Implementing the Sino-Foreign Equity Joint Venture Enterprise Law, Provisional Regulations on the Duration of Sino-Foreign Equity Joint Venture Enterprise Law, the Regulations on Implementing the Wholly Foreign-Invested Enterprise Law, and the Regulations on Implementing the Sino-foreign Cooperative Joint Venture Enterprise Law.

Under the Foreign Investment Law, the State shall implement the management systems of pre-establishment national treatment and negative list for foreign investment, according to which the treatment given to foreign investors and their investments during the investment access stage shall be not lower than that given to their domestic counterparts, and the State shall give national treatment to foreign investment beyond the negative list where special administrative measures for the access of foreign investment in specific fields is specified. Besides, the State shall protect foreign investors’ investment, earnings and other legitimate rights and interests within the territory of China in accordance with the law. The state will take measures to prompt foreign investment such as ensuring fair competition for foreign-invested enterprises to participate in government procurement activities, and protection of intellectual property rights of foreign investors and foreign-invested enterprises.

Industries listed in the Catalog are divided into three categories: encouraged, restricted and prohibited. Industries not listed in the Catalog are generally deemed as constituting a fourth “permitted” category. Establishment of wholly foreign-owned enterprises is generally allowed in encouraged and permitted industries. Some restricted industries are limited to equity or contractual joint ventures, while in some cases Chinese partners are required to hold the majority interests in such joint ventures. In addition, restricted category projects are subject to higher-level government approvals. Foreign investors are not allowed to invest in industries in the prohibited category. Industries not listed in the Catalog are generally open to foreign investment unless specifically restricted by other PRC regulations.

On March 15, 2019, the National People’s Congress adopted the Foreign Investment Law of the PRC, which became effective on January 1, 2020 and replaced three existing laws regulating foreign investment in China, namely, the Wholly Foreign-Invested Enterprise Law of the PRC, the Sino-Foreign Cooperative Joint Venture Enterprise Law of the PRC and the Sino-Foreign Equity Joint Venture Enterprise Law of the PRC, together with their implementation rules and ancillary regulations. On December 26, 2019, the State Council issued the Regulations on Implementing the Foreign Investment Law of the PRC, which came into effect on January 1, 2020, and replaced the Regulations on Implementing the Sino-Foreign Equity Joint Venture Enterprise Law of the PRC, Provisional Regulations on the Duration of Sino-Foreign Equity Joint Venture Enterprise Law, the Regulations on Implementing the Wholly Foreign-Invested Enterprise Law of the PRC, and the Regulations on Implementing the Sino-Foreign Cooperative Joint Venture Enterprise Law of the PRC. The Foreign Investment Law of the PRC embodies an expected PRC regulatory trend to rationalize its foreign investment regulatory regime in line with prevailing international practice and the legislative efforts to unify the corporate legal requirements for both foreign and domestic investments. However, since it is relatively new, uncertainties still exist in relation to its interpretation and implementation. For example, the Foreign Investment Law of the PRC adds a catch-all clause to the definition of “foreign investment” so that foreign investment, by its definition, includes “investments made by foreign investors in China through other means defined by other laws or administrative regulations or provisions promulgated by the State Council” without further elaboration on the meaning of “other means.” It leaves leeway for the future legislations to provide for contractual arrangements as a form of foreign investment. It is therefore uncertain whether MC’s corporate structure will be seen as violating the foreign investment rules as MC is currently leveraging the contractual arrangements to operate certain businesses in which foreign investors are prohibited from or restricted to investing.

On June 30, 2019, the MOFCOM and the NDRC promulgated the Special Management Measures (Negative List) for the Access of Foreign Investment, or the Negative List, which took effective from July 30, 2019. The Negative List expands the scope of industries in which foreign investment is permitted by reducing the number of industries that fall within the Negative List.

Where the PRC resident natural persons make overseas investments through overseas enterprises under their control, the Measures shall apply mutatis mutandis. Subsequently on January 31, 2018, NDRC issued the Catalogue of Sensitive Overseas Investment Industry (2018 Version) effective from March 1, 2018 under which enterprises shall be restricted from making overseas investments in certain industries including without limitation real estate and hotel.

As of the Latest Practicable Date, the ultimate PRC corporate shareholders of MC, had completed the overseas direct investment registration with the local MOFCOM and NDRC pursuant to the Overseas Direct Investment Rules in relation to their offshore investments as domestic enterprises.

The principal law governing dividend distributions by MC’s PRC Subsidiaries is the PRC Company Law, while the dividend distribution by wholly foreign-owned enterprises (“WFOE”) is further governed by Foreign Investment Law and its implementation regulations. According to the above laws and regulations, Chinese companies (including foreign-owned enterprises) may only pay dividends based on the accumulated profits calculated in accordance with PRC accounting principles.

In addition, in accordance with the PRC Company Law, when a company distributes their after-tax profits for a given year, they shall allocate 10% of after-tax its profits to their statutory common reserve. Companies shall no longer be required to make allocations to their statutory common reserve once the aggregate amount of such reserve exceeds 50% of their registered capital unless the provisions of laws regarding foreign investment otherwise provided. If a company’s statutory common reserve is insufficient to make up its losses of the previous years, such losses shall be made up from the profit for the current year prior to making allocations to the statutory common reserve pursuant to the preceding paragraph. Such reserved cash cannot be distributed as cash dividends.

On January 6, 2021, Golden Path sponsor purchased 1,150,000 founder shares for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.02 per share. On March 26, 2021, the Company issued an additional 287,500 founder shares to our sponsor in connection with a recapitalization. Golden Path sponsor will own approximately 22.90% of its issued and outstanding shares after its IPO.

Golden Path’s sponsor (and/or its designees) purchased an aggregate of 270,500 private placement units at a price of $10.00 per unit in a private placement that will close simultaneously with the closing of the IPO on June 24, 2021. Each unit consists of one private placement share, one private placement right granting the holder thereof the right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of an ordinary share upon the consummation of an business combination, and one private placement warrant. Each private placement warrant entitles the holder upon exercise to purchase one-half of one ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per whole share, subject to adjustment as provided herein. The private placement units (including the underlying securities) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by it until 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination.

Golden Path entered into an Administrative Services Agreement with Greenland Asset Management Corporation, an affiliate of Golden Path’s sponsor, pursuant to which Golden Path will pay a total of $10,000 per month for office space, administrative and support services to such affiliate. Upon completion of the Business Combination or Golden Path’s liquidation, Golden Path will cease paying these monthly fees. Accordingly, in the event the consummation of the Business Combination takes the maximum 21 months, an affiliate of Golden Path’s sponsor will be paid a total of $210,000 ($10,000 per month) for office space, administrative and support services and will be entitled to be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses.

Golden Path’s sponsor, officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on Golden Path’s behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Golden Path’s audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to Golden Path’s sponsor, officers, directors or Golden Path’s or their affiliates and will determine which expenses and the amount of expenses that will be reimbursed. There is no cap or ceiling on the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such persons in connection with activities on Golden Path’s behalf.

Golden Path’s sponsor had previously agreed to loan Golden Path up to $300,000 to be used for formation and offering expenses. As of December 31, 2020, the amount owed to Golden Path’s sponsor was $36,784. These loans were non-interest bearing, unsecured and were due at the earlier of December 31, 2021 or the closing of the IPO. Golden Path repaid the sum of $453,364 to Golden Path’s sponsor at the completion of the IPO on June 24, 2021.

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended business combination, Golden Path’s sponsor or an affiliate of Golden Path’s sponsor or certain of its officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan Golden Path funds as may be required. If Golden Path completes a business combination, it would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that the Business Combination does not close, Golden Path may use a portion of the working capital held outside the trust account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from Golden Path’s trust account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into units at a price of $10.00 per unit (which, for example, would result in the holders being issued 165,000 ordinary shares if $1,500,000 of notes were so converted (including 15,000 shares upon the closing of the Business Combination in respect of 150,000 rights included in such units), as well as 150,000 warrants to purchase 75,000 shares) at the option of the lender. The units would be identical to the placement units issued to the holder. The terms of such loans by Golden Path’s officers and directors, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. Golden Path does not expect to seek loans from parties other than Golden Path’s sponsor or an affiliate of Golden Path’s sponsor as Golden Path does not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in Golden Path’s trust account. As of [●] no advance of funds has been made.

The 1,150,000 founder shares (for purposes hereof referred to as the “Founder Shares”).

Golden Path’s founders and its officers and directors have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares (except to certain permitted transferees) until, with respect to 50% of the Founder Shares, the earlier of (i) six months after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, or (ii) the date on which the closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after a Business Combination, with respect to the remaining 50% of the Founder Shares, upon six months after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, or earlier, in each case, if, subsequent to a Business Combination, the Company consummates a subsequent liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

As of June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, the Sponsor had advanced the Company an aggregate of $27,931 and $36,784 respectively. The advances are non-interest bearing and due on demand.

On December 21, 2020, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note to the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $300,000 (the “Promissory Note”). The Promissory Note is non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2021 or (ii) the consummation of the Initial Public Offering (see Note 4). The outstanding balance under the Promissory Note was repaid at the closing of the Initial Public Offering on June 24, 2021. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the principal amount due and owing under the Promissory Note was $0 and $50,000, respectively.

An affiliate of the Sponsor agreed, commencing on June 24, 2021 through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation, to make available to the Company certain general and administrative services, including office space, utilities and administrative services, as the Company may require from time to time. The Company has agreed to pay the affiliate of the Sponsor $10,000 per month for these services.

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). Such Working Capital Loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The notes would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of notes may be converted upon consummation of a Business Combination into additional Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. As of [●] no advance of funds has been made.

As discussed in Note 1, the Company may extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to nine times, each by an additional month (for a total of 21 months to complete a Business Combination). In order to extend the time available for the Company to consummate a Business Combination, the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees must deposit into the Trust Account $191,667 (approximately $0.033 per Public Share), up to an aggregate of $1,725,000, or $0.30 per Public Share, on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each one month extension. Any such payments would be made in the form of a loan. The terms of the promissory note to be issued in connection with any such loans have not yet been negotiated. If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination, the Company will not repay such loans. Furthermore, the letter agreement with the shareholders contains a provision pursuant to which the Sponsor has agreed to waive its right to be repaid for such loans in the event that the Company does not complete a Business Combination. The Sponsor and its affiliates or designees are not obligated to fund the Trust Account to extend the time for the Company to complete a Business Combination.

Golden Path has adopted a code of ethics requiring it to avoid, wherever possible, all conflicts of interests, except under guidelines or resolutions approved by Golden Path’s Board of Directors (or the appropriate committee of Golden Path’s board) or as disclosed in Golden Path’s public filings with the SEC. Under Golden Path’s code of ethics, conflict of interest situations will include any financial transaction, arrangement or relationship (including any indebtedness or guarantee of indebtedness) involving the company. A form of the code of ethics was filed as an exhibit to the registration statement for the IPO as filed with the SEC.

In addition, Golden Path’s audit committee, pursuant to its written charter, will be responsible for reviewing and approving related party transactions to the extent that Golden Path enters into such transactions. An affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the audit committee present at a meeting at which a quorum is present will be required in order to approve a related party transaction. A majority of the members of the entire audit committee will constitute a quorum. Without a meeting, the unanimous written consent of all of the members of the audit committee will be required to approve a related party transaction. A form of the audit committee charter that Golden Path adopted was filed as an exhibit to the registration statement for the IPO. Golden Path also requires each of its directors and executive officers to complete a directors’ and officers’ questionnaire that elicits information about related party transactions.

MC has not been and will not be a participant in any related party transactions within the meaning of Item 404 of Regulation S-K. Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, New Golden Path will adopt certain policies and procedures for the review, approval, or ratification of transactions with related parties.

According to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of New Golden Path the authorized share capital of post-closing company is $50,000 divided into 500,000,000 ordinary shares of par value of $0.0001 each. New Golden Path’s ordinary shares issued in the Business Combination will be registered at the closing, but will be subject to the lock-up agreements described below. Sales of substantial amounts of New Golden Path ordinary shares in the public market could adversely affect prevailing market prices of the New Golden Path ordinary shares. Prior to the Business Combination, there has been no public market for New Golden Path ordinary shares. New Golden Path intends to apply for listing of the New Golden Path ordinary shares and New Golden Path Warrants on the Nasdaq, but it cannot be assured that a regular trading market will develop in the New Golden Path ordinary shares or New Golden Path Warrants.

Pursuant to the term of the Business Combination Agreement as described in this Proxy/Registration Statement, Golden Path will be issuing to the shareholders of MC Hologram Inc. (“MC”), a Cayman Islands exempted company, an aggregate of 44,554,455 Golden Path ordinary shares equal to approximately 84.07% of the post transaction ordinary shares issued and outstanding of Golden Path. All of the ordinary shares to be issued to the MC shareholders in connection with the Business Combination will be freely transferable under the Securities Act of 1933 without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act, subject to any lock-up restrictions by virtue of this Proxy/Registration Statement on Form S-4.

Subject to applicable securities laws in relevant jurisdictions and New Golden Path’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, the fully paid-up ordinary shares are freely transferable. Shares may be transferred by a duly signed instrument of transfer in any usual common form or in a form acceptable to the directors and the applicable securities laws in the relevant jurisdictions. The directors may decline to register any transfer unless, among other things, (i) the instrument of transfer is lodged with New Golden Path, accompanied by the certificate for the shares to which it relates and such other evidence as New Golden Path’s board of directors may reasonably require to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer, (ii) the instrument of transfer is in respect of only one class of shares; (iii) the instrument of transfer is properly stamped, if required, (iv) in the case of transfer to joint holders, the number of joint holders to whom the share is to be transferred does not exceed four, and (v) a fee of such maximum sum as the relevant stock exchange may determine to be payable or such lesser sum as New Golden Path’s directors may from time to time require is paid to New Golden Path. New Golden Path will replace lost or destroyed certificates for shares upon notice to us and upon, among other things, the applicant furnishing evidence and indemnity as the directors may require and the payment of all applicable fees.

In connection with the transactions, New Golden Path will enter into a Lock-Up Agreement with each MC shareholder, with respect to certain lock-up arrangements, which will provide that such MC shareholder will not, within certain period of time from the closing of the Business Combination, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, subject to express carve-outs therein, any of the shares issued in connection with the Business Combination, enter into a transaction that would have the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such shares, whether any of these transactions are to be settled by delivery of any such shares, in cash, or otherwise. The Lock-up Agreement provides that all shares held by the parties to the lock-up agreements will be subject to restrictions of sale, transfer or assignment as follows: (A) 50% of the shares until the earlier of (i) six (6) months after the date of the consummation of the Merger or (ii) the date on which the closing price of our ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after the Merger, and (B) the remaining 50% of the shares may not be transferred, assigned or sold until six months after the date of the consummation of the Merger.

All of New Golden Path ordinary shares that will be outstanding upon the consummation of the Business Combination, other than (i) those equity shares issued and registered in connection with the Business Combination and (ii) the ordinary shares sold in Golden Path’s IPO, are “restricted securities” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act and may be sold publicly in the United States only if they are subject to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirement such as those provided by Rule 144 and Rule 701 promulgated under the Securities Act. In general, beginning 90 days after the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, a person (or persons whose shares are aggregated) who, at the time of a sale, is not, and has not been during the three months preceding the sale, an affiliate of New Golden Path and has beneficially owned New Golden Path’s restricted securities for at least six months will be entitled to sell the restricted securities without registration under the Securities Act, subject only to the availability of current public information about New Golden Path. Persons who are affiliates of New Golden Path and have beneficially owned New Golden Path’s restricted securities for at least six months may sell a number of restricted securities within any three-month period that does not exceed the greater of the following:

Sales by affiliates of New Golden Path under Rule 144 are also subject to certain requirements relating to manner of sale, notice and the availability of current public information about New Golden Path.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Rule 144 is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by shell companies (other than business combination related shell companies) or issuers that have been at any time previously a shell company. However, Rule 144 also includes an important exception to this prohibition if the following conditions are met:

We anticipate that following the consummation of the Business Combination, New Golden Path will no longer be a shell company, and so, once the conditions set forth in the exceptions listed above are satisfied, Rule 144 will become available for the resale of the above noted restricted securities.

In general, under Rule 701 of the Securities Act as currently in effect, each of New Golden Path’s employees, consultants or advisors who purchases equity shares from New Golden Path in connection with a compensatory stock plan or other written agreement executed prior to the consummation of the Business Combination is eligible to resell those equity shares in reliance on Rule 144, but without compliance with some of the restrictions, including the holding period, contained in Rule 144. However, the Rule 701 shares would remain subject to lock-up arrangements and would only become eligible for sale when the lock-up period expires.

In connection with the transactions, Golden Path and MC shareholders have entered into a registration rights agreement (the form of which is attached as Exhibit A to the Merger Agreement) as of September 10, 2021, to provide for the resale registration with respect to the shares issued to MC shareholders in connection with the Business Combination. Further, in connection with our IPO, we entered into a registration rights agreement with our Sponsor to provide for the registration for resale of securities held by the Sponsor and its permitted assignees. Under the registration rights agreements with the MC shareholders and our Sponsor, the holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that we register such securities for resale under the securities Act of 1933, as amended. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to our completion of our initial business combination and rights to require us to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

New Golden Path or Golden Path is an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands and its affairs are governed by the memorandum and articles of association, as amended and restated from time to time, and Companies Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands, which is referred to as the “Companies Act” below, and the common law of the Cayman Islands.

New Golden Path currently has only one class of issued ordinary shares, which have identical rights in all respects and rank equally with one another. According to the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the authorized share capital of New Golden Path is US $50,000 divided into 500,000,000 shares of a par value of US $0.0001 each.

The following includes a summary of the terms of New Golden Path ordinary shares, based on its Memorandum and Articles of Association and Cayman Islands law.

General. Immediately prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, Golden Path’s issued share capital is 7,458,000 Golden Path ordinary shares, with a par value of $0.0001 each. All of Golden Path’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares are fully paid and non-assessable. Certificates representing the ordinary shares are issued in registered form. Golden Path may not issue share to bearer. Golden Path’s shareholders who are non-residents of the Cayman Islands may freely hold and transfer their ordinary shares.

Dividends. The holders of New Golden Path’s ordinary shares are entitled to such dividends as may be declared by its Board of Directors subject to its Memorandum and Articles of Association and the Companies Act. In addition, New Golden Path’s shareholders may by ordinary resolution declare a dividend, but no dividend may exceed the amount recommended by its directors. Dividends may only be paid out of profits or share premium account. in accordance with the Companies Act, and provided always that no dividend may be declared and paid unless New Golden Path’s directors determine that, immediately after the payment, New Golden Path will be able to pay its debts as they become due in the ordinary course of business and New Golden Path has funds lawfully available for such purpose. Holders of New Golden Path’s ordinary shares will be entitled to the same amount of dividends, if declared.

Voting Rights. In respect of all matters subject to a shareholders’ vote, each New Golden Path’s ordinary share is entitled to one vote. Voting at any meeting of shareholders is by poll and not on a show of hands.

A quorum required for a meeting of shareholders consists of one or more shareholders together holding not less than one-half of the votes attaching to the issued and outstanding shares entitled to vote at general meetings present in person or by proxy or, if a corporation or other non-natural person, by its duly authorized representative. As a Cayman Islands exempted company, New Golden Path is not obliged by the Companies Act to call shareholders’ annual general meetings. New Golden Path’s Memorandum and Articles of Association provide that to the extent required by the Listing Rules at the Nasdaq, New Golden Path shall in each year hold a general meeting as its annual general meeting in which case New Golden Path will specify the meeting as such in the notices calling it, and the annual general meeting will be held at such time and place as may be determined by its directors. New Golden Path may, but shall not (unless required by applicable laws or the Listing Rules at the Nasdaq) be obliged to, in each year hold any other general meeting. Each general meeting, other than an annual general meeting, shall be an extraordinary general meeting. Shareholders’ annual general meetings and any other general meetings of New Golden Path’s shareholders may be called by a majority of its Board of Directors or, in the case of an extraordinary general meeting only, upon a requisition in writing given by one or more shareholders holding at the date of deposit of the requisition not less than 10% of the votes attaching to the issued and outstanding shares entitled to vote at general meetings, in which case the directors are obliged to call such meeting and to put the resolutions so requisitioned to a vote at such meeting; however, New Golden Path Memorandum and Articles of Association do not provide its shareholders with any right to put any proposals before any annual general meetings or any extraordinary general meetings not called by such shareholders. Advance notice of at least five (5) clear days’ is required for the convening of New Golden Path’s annual general meeting and other general meetings unless such notice is waived in accordance with its articles of association. For these purposes, Clear Days, in relation to a period of notice, means that period excluding (a) the day when the notice is given or deemed to be given and (b) the day for which it is given or on which it is to take effect.

An ordinary resolution to be passed at a meeting by the shareholders requires the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes attaching to the ordinary shares cast by those shareholders entitled to vote who are present in person or by proxy at a general meeting, while a special resolution requires the affirmative vote of no less than two-thirds of the votes attaching to the ordinary shares cast by those shareholders entitled to vote who are present in person or by proxy at a general meeting. A special resolution will be required for the Name Change Proposal, the Articles Amendment Proposal or making other changes to New Golden Path’s Memorandum and Articles of Association.

Transfer of ordinary shares. Subject to the restrictions in New Golden Path’s Memorandum and Articles of Association as set out below, any of New Golden Path’s shareholders may transfer all or any of his or her ordinary shares by an instrument of transfer in the usual or common form or any other form approved by New Golden Path’s Board of Directors.

New Golden Path’s Board of Directors may decline to register any transfer of any ordinary share which were issued in conjunction with rights, options or warrants issued on terms that one cannot be transferred without the other, unless the Board of Directors receive evidence satisfactory to them of the like transfer of such option or warrant.

The registration of transfers may, after compliance with any notice required of the Nasdaq, be suspended and the register closed at such times and for such periods as New Golden Path’s Board of Directors may from time to time determine, provided, however, that the registration of transfers shall not be suspended nor the register closed for more than 30 days in any year as New Golden Path’s board may determine.

Liquidation. If New Golden Path is wound up, the shareholders may pass a special resolution allowing the liquidator to do either or both of the following:

Redemption, Repurchase and Surrender of ordinary shares. New Golden Path may (a) issue shares on terms that such shares are subject to redemption, at New Golden Path’s option or at the option of the holders thereof, on such terms and in such manner as may be determined, before the issue of such shares, by New Golden Path’s Board of Directors, or (b) with the consent by a special resolution of New Golden Path’s shareholders holding shares of a particular class, vary the rights attaching to that class of shares so as to provide that those shares are to be redeemed or are liable to be redeemed at the option of New Golden Path on the terms and in the manner which the directors determine at the time of such variation. New Golden Path may also repurchase any of its shares provided that the manner and terms of such purchase have been approved by its Board of Directors or are otherwise authorized by its Memorandum and Articles of Association. Under the Companies Act, the redemption or repurchase of any share may be paid out of New Golden Path’s profits or out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares made for the purpose of such redemption or repurchase, or out of capital (including share premium account and capital redemption reserve) if the company can, immediately following such payment, pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business. In addition, under the Companies Act no such share may be redeemed or repurchased (a) unless it is fully paid up, (b) if such redemption or repurchase would result in there being no shares outstanding, or (c) if the company has commenced liquidation. In addition, New Golden Path may accept the surrender of any fully paid share for no consideration.

Variation of Rights of Shares. If at any time New Golden Path’s share capital is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any class of shares (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class), may be varied with the consent in writing of a the holders of two-thirds of the issued shares of that class or with the sanction of ordinary special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of the class. The rights conferred upon the holders of the shares of any class issued 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 with such existing class of shares.

Inspection of Books and Records. Holders of New Golden Path ordinary shares have no general right under Cayman Islands law to inspect or obtain copies of New Golden Path’s list of shareholders or its corporate records (save for the Memorandum and Articles, the register of mortgages and charges and any special resolutions of New Golden Path’s shareholders). However, New Golden Path will provide its shareholders with annual audited financial statements. See “Where You Can Find Additional Information.”

Issuance of Additional Shares. New Golden Path’s Memorandum and Articles of Association authorize its Board of Directors to issue additional ordinary shares from time to time as its Board of Directors shall determine, to the extent of available authorized but unissued shares.

New Golden Path’s Memorandum and Articles of Association also authorize its Board of Directors to deal with the unissued shares of New Golden Path (a) either at a premium or at par; (b) with or without preferred, deferred or other special rights or restrictions whether in regard to dividend, voting, return of capital or otherwise.

New Golden Path’s Board of Directors may issue preferred shares without action by its shareholders to the extent authorized but unissued. Issuance of these shares may dilute the voting power of holders of ordinary shares.

Anti-Takeover Provisions. Some provisions of New Golden Path’s Memorandum and Articles of Association may discourage, delay or prevent a change of control of New Golden Path or management that shareholders may consider favorable, including provisions that authorize New Golden Path’s Board of Directors to issue preferred shares in one or more series and to designate the price, rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of such preferred shares without any further vote or action by its shareholders.

Exempted Company. New Golden Path is an exempted company with limited liability under the Companies Act. The Companies Act distinguishes between ordinary resident companies and exempted companies. Any company that is registered in the Cayman Islands but conducts business mainly outside the Cayman Islands may apply to be registered as an exempted company. The requirements for an exempted company are essentially the same as for an ordinary company except that an exempted company:

“Limited liability” means that the liability of each shareholder is limited to the amount unpaid by the shareholder on that shareholder’s shares of the company.

Under Cayman Islands law, New Golden Path must keep a register of members and there shall be entered therein:

For these purposes, “voting rights” means rights conferred on shareholders in respect of their shares to vote at general meetings of the company on all or substantially all matters. A voting right is conditional where the voting right arises only in certain circumstances.

Under Cayman Islands law, the register of members of our company is prima facie evidence of the matters set out therein (i.e. the register of members will raise a presumption of fact on the matters referred to above unless rebutted) and a member registered in the register of members shall be deemed as a matter of Cayman Islands law to have legal title to the shares as set against its name in the register of members. Upon the closing of this public offering, the register of members shall be immediately updated to reflect the issue of shares by us. Once our register of members has been updated, the shareholders recorded in the register of members shall be deemed to have legal title to the shares set against their name. However, there are certain limited circumstances where an application may be made to a Cayman Islands court for a determination on whether the register of members reflects the correct legal position. Further, the Cayman Islands court has the power to order that the register of members maintained by a company should be rectified where it considers that the register of members does not reflect the correct legal position. If an application for an order for rectification of the register of members were made in respect of our ordinary shares, then the validity of such shares may be subject to re-examination by a Cayman Islands court.

New Golden Path’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association will provide that preference shares may be issued from time to time in one or more series. Our Board of Directors will be authorized to fix the voting rights, if any, designations, powers, preferences, the relative, participating, optional or other special rights and any qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, applicable to the shares of each series. Our Board of Directors will be able to, without shareholder approval, issue preference shares with voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of the ordinary shares and could have anti-takeover effects. The ability of our Board of Directors to issue preference shares without shareholder approval could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of us or the removal of existing management. We have no preference shares outstanding at the date hereof. Although we do not currently intend to issue any preference shares, we cannot assure you that we will not do so in the future. No preference shares are being issued or registered in this offering.

Set forth below is also a description of the New Golden Path Warrants that will be issued and outstanding upon the consummation of the Business Combination. These are the same warrants issued and outstanding in connection with Golden Path’s IPO. Golden Path is not issuing any warrant to the MC shareholders in connection with the Business Combination.

The New Golden Path Warrants will have the same terms as the Golden Path Warrants. Each New Golden Path Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one-half (1/2) of one New Golden Path Ordinary Share at a price of $11.50 per full share. New Golden Path will not issue fractional shares. As a result, a warrant holder must exercise its New Golden Path Warrants in multiples of two, at a price of $11.50 per full share, subject to adjustment, to validly exercise the New Golden Path Warrants. The New Golden Path Warrants will become exercisable on the later of the completion of the Business Combination and 12 months from the date of the IPO, and will expire five years after the consummation of the Business Combination.

New Golden Path may redeem the outstanding New Golden Path Warrants (excluding the private warrants that are part of the Private Units), in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per warrant:

If the foregoing conditions are satisfied and New Golden Path issues a notice of redemption, each warrant holder can exercise his, her or its New Golden Path Warrant prior to the scheduled redemption date. However, the price of the New Golden Path ordinary shares may fall below the $18.00 trigger price as well as the $11.50 warrant exercise price per full share after the redemption notice is issued and not limit New Golden Path’s ability to complete the redemption.

If New Golden Path calls the New Golden Path Warrants for redemption as described above, New Golden Path’s management will have the option to require all warrant holders that wish to exercise New Golden Path Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis.” In such event, each warrant holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the whole New Golden Path Warrant for that number of New Golden Path ordinary shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of New Golden Path ordinary shares underlying the New Golden Path Warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the New Golden Path Warrants and the “fair market value” (as defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” shall mean the average reported last sale price of the New Golden Path ordinary shares for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the warrant holders. Whether New Golden Path will exercise its option to require all warrant holders to exercise their New Golden Path Warrants on a “cashless basis” will depend on a variety of factors including the price of the New Golden Path ordinary shares at the time the New Golden Path Warrants are called for redemption, New Golden Path’s cash needs at such time and concerns regarding dilutive share issuances.

We will not be obligated to deliver any ordinary shares pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the ordinary shares underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to our satisfying our obligations described below with respect to registration. No warrant will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, and we will not be obligated to issue any shares to holders seeking to exercise their warrants, unless the issuance of the shares upon such exercise is registered or qualified under the securities laws of the state of the exercising holder, or an exemption is available. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a warrant, the holder of such warrant will not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In the event that a registration statement is not effective for the exercised warrants, the purchaser of a unit containing such warrant will have paid the full purchase price for the unit solely for the ordinary share underlying such unit.

We have agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of our business combination, we will use our best efforts to file, and within 60 business days following our business combination to have declared effective, a registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants. We will use our best efforts to cause the same to become effective and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement, and a current prospectus relating thereto, until the expiration of the warrants in accordance with the provisions of the warrant agreement. No warrants will be exercisable for cash unless we have an effective and current registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to such ordinary shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective within a specified period following the consummation of our business combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when we shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, provided that such exemption is available. If that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis.

If the number of issued and outstanding ordinary shares is increased by a capitalization payable in ordinary shares, or by a sub-division of ordinary shares or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such capitalization, sub-division or similar event, the number of ordinary shares issuable on exercise of each warrant will be increased in proportion to such increase in the issued and outstanding ordinary shares. A rights offering to holders of ordinary shares entitling holders to purchase ordinary shares at a price less than the fair market value will be deemed a capitalization of a number of ordinary shares equal to the product of (i) the number of ordinary shares actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for ordinary shares) multiplied by (ii) one (1) minus the quotient of (x) the price per ordinary share paid in such rights offering divided by (y) the fair market value. For these purposes (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for ordinary shares, in determining the price payable for ordinary shares, there will be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) fair market value means the volume weighted average price of ordinary shares as reported during the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the ordinary shares trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive such rights.

In addition, if we, at any time while the warrants are outstanding and unexpired, pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to the holders of ordinary shares on account of such ordinary shares (or other ordinary shares into which the warrants are convertible), other than (a) as described above, (b) certain ordinary cash dividends, (c) to satisfy the redemption rights of the holders of ordinary shares in connection with a proposed business combination, (d) to satisfy the redemption rights of the holders of ordinary shares in connection with a shareholder vote to amend our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to redeem 100% of our ordinary shares if we do not complete our business combination within 12 months from the closing of this offering (or up to 21 months from the closing of this offering if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination, as described in more detail in this prospectus), or (e) in connection with the redemption of our public shares upon our failure to complete our business combination, then the warrant exercise price will be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such event, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value of any securities or other assets paid on each ordinary share in respect of such event.

If the number of issued and outstanding ordinary shares is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse share split or reclassification of ordinary shares or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse share split, reclassification or similar event, the number of ordinary shares issuable on exercise of each warrant will be decreased in proportion to such decrease in issued and outstanding ordinary shares.

Whenever the number of ordinary shares purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants is adjusted, as described above, the warrant exercise price will be adjusted by multiplying the warrant exercise price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which will be the number of ordinary shares purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants immediately prior to such adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which will be the number of ordinary shares so purchasable immediately thereafter.

In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares (other than those described above or that solely affects the par value of such ordinary shares), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of us with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which we are the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the assets or other property of us as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which we are dissolved, the holders of the warrants will 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 our ordinary shares 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 holder of the warrants would have received if such holder had exercised their warrants immediately prior to such event. However, if such holders were entitled to exercise a right of election as to the kind or amount of securities, cash or other assets receivable upon such consolidation or merger, then the kind and amount of securities, cash or other assets for which each warrant will become exercisable will be deemed to be the weighted average of the kind and amount received per share by such holders in such consolidation or merger that affirmatively make such election, and if a tender, exchange or redemption offer has been made to and accepted by such holders (other than a tender, exchange or redemption offer made by the company in connection with redemption rights held by shareholders of the company as provided for in the company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association or as a result of the redemption of ordinary shares by the company if a proposed business combination is presented to the shareholders of the company for approval) under circumstances in which, upon completion of such tender or exchange offer, the maker thereof, together with members of any group (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act) of which such maker is a part, and together with any affiliate or associate of such maker (within the meaning of Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) and any members of any such group of which any such affiliate or associate is a part, own beneficially (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) more than 50% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares, the holder of a warrant will be entitled to receive the highest amount of cash, securities or other property to which such holder would actually have been entitled as a shareholder if such warrant holder had exercised the warrant prior to the expiration of such tender or exchange offer, accepted such offer and all of the ordinary shares held by such holder had been purchased pursuant to such tender or exchange offer, subject to adjustment (from and after the consummation of such tender or exchange offer) as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments provided for in the warrant agreement. Additionally, if less than 70% of the consideration receivable by the holders of ordinary shares in such a transaction is payable in the form of ordinary shares in the successor entity that is listed for trading on a national securities exchange or is quoted in an established over-the-counter market, or is to be so listed for trading or quoted immediately following such event, and if the registered holder of the warrant properly exercises the warrant within thirty days following public disclosure of such transaction, the warrant exercise price will be reduced as specified in the warrant agreement based on the per share consideration minus Black-Scholes Warrant Value (as defined in the warrant agreement) of the warrant.

The warrants were issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between [VStock Transfer LLC], as warrant agent, and Golden Path, which agreement shall remain in effect after the Business Combination. You should review a copy of the warrant agreement, which was filed as an exhibit to the registration statement for Golden Path’s IPO for a complete description of the terms and conditions applicable to the warrants. The warrant agreement provides that the terms of the warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity or correct any defective provision, but requires the approval by the holders of a majority of the then issued and outstanding warrants (including private warrants) to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders of warrants.

The warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price (or on a cashless basis, if applicable), by certified or official bank check payable to us, for the number of warrants being exercised. The warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of ordinary shares and any voting rights until they exercise their warrants and receive ordinary shares. After the issuance of ordinary shares upon exercise of the warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders.

Golden Path was incorporated in the Cayman Islands in order to enjoy the following benefits:

However, certain disadvantages accompany incorporation in the Cayman Islands. These disadvantages include, but are not limited to, the following:

Golden Path’s memorandum and articles of association do not contain provisions requiring that disputes, including those arising under the securities laws of the United States, between Golden Path, Golden Path’s officers, directors and shareholders, be arbitrated.

Substantially all of Golden Path’s operations are conducted outside the United States, and all of Golden Path’s assets are located outside the United States. A majority of Golden Path’s directors and officers are nationals or residents of jurisdictions other than the United States and a substantial portion of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for a shareholder to effect service of process within the United States upon these persons, or to enforce against us or them judgments obtained in United States courts, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States.

New Golden Path will appoint [VStock Transfer LLC] as its agent upon whom process may be served in any action brought against it under the securities laws of the United States after the consummation of the Business Combination.

Maples and Calder (Hong Kong) LLP, MC’s counsel as to Cayman Islands law, and Fawan law firm (“Fawan”), MC’s counsel as to PRC law, have advised us, respectively, that there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the Cayman Islands and China, respectively, would:

Ogier, Golden Path’s Cayman counsel has informed Golden Path that it is uncertain whether the courts of the Cayman Islands will allow shareholders of Golden Path to originate actions in the Cayman Islands based upon securities laws of the United States. In addition, there is uncertainty with regard to Cayman Islands law related to whether a judgment obtained from the U.S. courts under civil liability provisions of U.S. securities laws will be determined by the courts of the Cayman Islands as penal or punitive in nature. If such a determination is made, the courts of the Cayman Islands will not recognize or enforce the judgment against a Cayman Islands exempted company, such as Golden Path. As the courts of the Cayman Islands have yet to rule on making such a determination in relation to judgments obtained from U.S. courts under civil liability provisions of U.S. securities laws, it is uncertain whether such judgments would be enforceable in the Cayman Islands.

Maples and Calder (Hong Kong) LLP has further informed New Golden Path that although there is no statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the federal or state courts of the United States (and the Cayman Islands are not a party to any treaties for the reciprocal enforcement or recognition of such judgments), the courts of the Cayman Islands will, at common law, recognize and enforce a foreign money judgment of a foreign court of competent jurisdiction without any re-examination of the merits of the underlying dispute based on the principle that a judgement of a competent foreign court imposes upon the judgment debtor an obligation to pay the liquidated sum for which such judgement has been given, provided such judgment (a) is final and conclusive, (b) is not in respect of taxes, a fine or a penalty, and (c) was not obtained in a manner and is not of a kind the enforcement of which is contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands. However, the Cayman Islands courts are unlikely to enforce a judgment obtained from the U.S. courts under civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities law if such judgment is determined by the courts of the Cayman Islands to give rise to obligations to make payments that are penal or punitive in nature. A Cayman Islands court may stay enforcement proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere.

As advised by Fawan, MC’s PRC legal counsel, that there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the PRC would enforce judgments of United States courts or Cayman courts obtained against us or these persons predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the United States federal and state securities laws. Fawan has further advised that the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments are provided for under PRC Civil Procedures Law. PRC courts may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the requirements of PRC Civil Procedures Law based either on treaties between China and the country where the judgment is made or on reciprocity between jurisdictions. China does not have any treaties or other form of reciprocity with the United States or the Cayman Islands that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. In addition, according to the PRC Civil Procedures Law, courts in the PRC will not enforce a foreign judgment against Golden Path or its directors and officers if they decide that the judgment violates the basic principles of PRC law or national sovereignty, security or public interest. As a result, it is uncertain whether and on what basis a PRC court would enforce a judgment rendered by a court in the United States or in the Cayman Islands.

Golden Path Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on May 9, 2018. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more businesses (“Business Combination”).

Although the Company is not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of consummating a Business Combination, the Company intends to focus on businesses that have a connection to the Asian market. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity through June 30, 2021 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering as described below. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of dividend income from investing the proceeds derived from the initial public offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

The registration statement for the Company’s initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering” as described in Note 4) was declared effective by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 21, 2021. On June 24, 2021, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 5,750,000 ordinary units (the “Public Units”), which includes the full exercise by the underwriter of its over-allotment option in the amount of 750,000 Public Units, at $10.00 per Public Unit, generating gross proceeds of $57,500,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 270,500 units (the “Private Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit in a private placement to Greenland Asset Management Corporation (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of $2,705,000, which is described in Note 5.

Transaction costs amounted to $2,887,500, consisting of $1,150,000 of underwriting fees, $1,437,500 of deferred underwriting fees and $300,000 of other offering costs. In addition, at June 30, 2021, cash of $509,568 and cash held in escrow of $9,000 were held outside of the Trust Account and is available for the payment of offering costs and for working capital purposes.

Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the private placement, $58,075,002 was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) with Wilmington Trust, National Association acting as trustee. The funds held in the Trust Account can be invested in United States government treasury bills, bonds or notes, having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act until the earlier of (i) the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination and (ii) the Company’s failure to consummate a Business Combination within 21 months from the closing of the Public Offering. Placing funds in the Trust Account may not protect those funds from third party claims against the Company. Although the Company will seek to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities it engages, execute agreements with the Company waiving any claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, there is no guarantee that such persons will execute such agreements. The remaining net proceeds (not held in the Trust Account) may be used to pay for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective acquisitions and continuing general and administrative expenses. Additionally, the interest earned on the Trust Account balance may be released to the Company to pay the Company’s tax obligations.

(Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares)

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and sale of the Private Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. NASDAQ rules provide that the Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Account (as defined below) (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned) at the time of the signing of an agreement to enter into a Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.

The Company will provide its shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. In connection with an Initial Business Combination, the Company may seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which shareholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against a Business Combination. The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks shareholder approval, a majority of the outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provides that a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to 15% or more of the Public Shares without the Company’s prior written consent.

If a shareholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, offer such redemption pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination.

The shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially $10.10 per Public Share, subject to increase of up to an additional $0.30 per Public Share in the event that the Sponsor elects to extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination (see below), plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations). The per-share amount to be distributed to shareholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriter (as discussed in Note 9). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s rights or warrants. The ordinary shares will be recorded at redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”

The Sponsor and any of the Company’s officers or directors that may hold Founder Shares (as defined in Note 6) (the “shareholders”) and the underwriters will agree (a) to vote their Founder Shares, the ordinary shares included in the Private Units (the “Private Shares”) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of a Business Combination, (b) not to propose an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association with respect to the Company’s pre-Business Combination activities prior to the consummation of a Business Combination unless the Company provides dissenting public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment; (c) not to redeem any shares (including the Founder Shares) and Private Shares into the right to receive cash from the Trust Account in connection with a shareholder vote to approve a Business Combination (or to sell any shares in a tender offer in connection with a Business Combination if the Company does not seek shareholder approval in connection therewith) or a vote to amend the provisions of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association relating to shareholders’ rights of pre-Business Combination activity and (d) that the Founder Shares and Private Shares shall not participate in any liquidating distributions upon winding up if a Business Combination is not consummated. However, the shareholders will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering if the Company fails to complete its Business Combination.

(Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares)

The Company will have until June 23, 2022 to consummate a Business Combination. However, if the Company anticipates that it may not be able to consummate a Business Combination within 12 months, the Company may extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to nine times, each by an additional month (for a total of 21 months to complete a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). In order to extend the time available for the Company to consummate a Business Combination, the Sponsor or its affiliate or designees must deposit into the Trust Account $191,667 (approximately $0.033 per Public Share), up to an aggregate of $1,725,000, or $0.30 per Public Share, on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each one month extension. Any funds which may be provided to extend the time frame will be in the form of a loan to us from our sponsor. The terms of any such loan have not been definitely negotiated, provided, however, any loan will be interest free and will be repayable only if we compete a business combination.

If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned (net of taxes payable and less interest to pay dissolution expenses up to $50,000), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company, subject in each case to its obligations to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of applicable law. The underwriter has agreed to waive its rights to the deferred underwriting commission held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the Initial Public Offering price per Unit ($10.00).

The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company, if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amounts in the Trust Account to below (i) $10.10 per share or (ii) such lesser amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

On April 12, 2021, the Acting Director of the Division of Corporation Finance and Acting Chief Accountant of the SEC together issued a statement regarding the accounting and reporting considerations for warrants issued by special purpose acquisition companies entitled “Staff Statement on Accounting and Reporting Considerations for Warrants Issued by Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (“SPACs”)” (the “SEC Statement”). Specifically, the SEC Statement focused on certain provisions that provided for potential changes to the settlement amounts dependent upon the characteristics of the holder of the warrant, which terms are similar to those contained in the warrant agreement governing the Company’s warrants.

The Company’s management evaluated the warrants under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 815-40, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity. ASC Section 815-40-15 addresses equity versus liability treatment and classification of equity-linked financial instruments, including warrants, and states that a warrant may be classified as a component of equity only if, among other things, the warrant is indexed to the issuer’s common stock. Under ASC Section 815-40-15, a warrant is not indexed to the issuer’s common stock if the terms of the warrant require an adjustment to the exercise price upon a specified event and that event is not an input to the fair value of the warrant. The Company’s Private Warrants are not indexed to the Company’s common shares in the manner contemplated by ASC Section 815-40-15 because the holder of the instrument is not an input into the pricing of a fixed-for-fixed option on equity shares. In addition, the tender offer provision included in the warrant agreement fails the “classified in shareholders’ equity” criteria as contemplated by ASC Section 815-40-25. As a result, the only Private Warrants shall be classified as liabilities and the Public Warrants shall be classified as equity and the Company reevaluated the accounting treatment of the 5,750,000 warrants that were issued to the Company’s sponsor in an initial public offering (“Public Warrants”). The Company previously accounted for the Public Warrants as components of liabilities.

In further consideration of the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC 815”), the Company concluded that a provision in the warrant agreement related to certain transfer provisions precludes the Private Warrants from being accounted for as components of equity. As the Private Warrants meet the definition of a derivative as contemplated in ASC 815, the Private Warrants should be recorded as derivative liabilities on the balance sheet and measured at fair value at inception (on the date of the Initial Public Offering) and at each reporting date in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, with changes in fair value recognized in the Statements of Operations in the period of change.

The following tables summarize the effect of the revision on each financial statement line item as of the dates, and for the period, indicated:

These accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the accounting and disclosure rules and regulations of the SEC. The interim financial information provided is unaudited, but includes all adjustments which management considers necessary for the fair presentation of the results for these periods. Operating results for the interim period ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis, and the financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 thereto included in the Company’s Form S-1 Amendment No. 2, filed with the SEC on June 11, 2021.

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

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

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results may differ from those estimates.

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

At June 30, 2021, the assets held in the Trust Account are held in cash and US Treasury securities. Investment securities in the Company’s Trust Account consisted of $58,075,002 in United States Treasury Bills.

(Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares)

The Company classifies marketable securities as available-for-sale at the time of purchase and reevaluates such classification as of each balance sheet date. All marketable securities are recorded at their estimated fair value. Unrealized gains and losses for available-for-sale securities are recorded in other comprehensive loss. The Company evaluates its investments to assess whether those with unrealized loss positions are other than temporarily impaired. Impairments are considered other than temporary if they are related to deterioration in credit risk or if it is likely the Company will sell the securities before the recovery of the cost basis. Realized gains and losses and declines in value determined to be other than temporary are determined based on the specific identification method and are reported in other income (expense), net in the statements of operations.

Deferred offering costs consist of underwriting, legal, accounting and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the Initial Public Offering and that were charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480. Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. As of June 30, 2021, 5,096,815 ordinary shares subject to possible redemption which are subject to occurrence of uncertain future events and considered to be outside of the Company’s control are presented as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet.

The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A – “Expenses of Offering”. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through the balance sheet date that are related to the Initial Public Offering and that were charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.

FASB ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” defines fair value, the methods used to measure fair value and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between the buyer and the seller at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, income approach and cost approach shall be used to measure fair value. FASB ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for inputs, which represent the assumptions used by the buyer and seller in pricing the asset or liability. These inputs are further defined as observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are those that buyer and seller would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about the inputs that the buyer and seller would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:

The fair value of the Company’s certain assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, and other current assets, accrued expenses, due to sponsor are estimated to approximate the carrying values as of June 30, 2021 due to the short maturities of such instruments. See Note 9 for the disclosure of the Company’s assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash and trust accounts in a financial institution which, at times may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

Income taxes are determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. The Company’s management determined that the British Virgin Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of June 30, 2021 or December 31, 2020. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.

The Company’s tax provision is zero for the period ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

The Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands Company, and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States.

The Company calculates net loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic income per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding shares of ordinary shares subject to forfeiture by the Sponsors. Diluted loss per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential ordinary share equivalents had been issued and if the additional ordinary shares were dilutive.

At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for the periods presented.

Parties, which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operational decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.

The Company has considered all new accounting pronouncements and has concluded that there are no new pronouncements that may have a material impact on the results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows, based on the current information.

As of June 30, 2021, investment securities in the Company’s Trust Account consisted of $58,075,002 in United States Treasury Bills and $0 in cash. The Company classifies its United States Treasury securities as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale marketable securities are recorded at their estimated fair value on the accompanying June 30, 2021 balance sheet. The carrying value, including gross unrealized holding gain as other comprehensive income and fair value of held to marketable securities on June 30, 2021 is as follows:

(Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares)

On June 24, 2021, the Company sold 5,750,000 units at a price of $10.00 per Public Unit in the Public Offering. Each Public Unit consists of one ordinary share of the Company, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Public Shares”), one right (the “Public Rights”) and one redeemable warrant (the “Public Warrant”). Each Public Right entitles the holder to receive one-tenth (1/10) of an ordinary share upon consummation of an initial Business Combination. Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one-half (1/2) of an ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share (see Note 7).

The Company paid an upfront underwriting discount of $1,150,000, equal to 2% of the gross offering proceeds to the underwriter at the closing of the Initial Public Offering, with an additional fee of $1,437,500 (the “Deferred Underwriting Discount”) or 2.5% of the gross offering proceeds payable upon the Company’s completion of the Business Combination. The Deferred Underwriting Discount will become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event the Company completes its Business Combination. In the event that the Company does not close the Business Combination, the underwriter has waived its right to receive the Deferred Underwriting Discount. The underwriter is not entitled to any interest accrued on the Deferred Underwriting Discount.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated a private placement of 270,500 Private Units at $10.00 per unit, purchased by the sponsor.

The Private Units are identical to the units sold in the Initial Public Offering except that the warrants included in the Private Units (the “Private Warrants”) are non-redeemable and may be exercised on a cashless basis so long as the Private Warrants continue to be held by the initial purchasers of the Placement Units or their permitted transferees.

The founders and our officers and directors have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares (except to certain permitted transferees) until, with respect to 50% of the Founder Shares, the earlier of (i) six months after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, or (ii) the date on which the closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after a Business Combination, with respect to the remaining 50% of the Founder Shares, upon six months after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, or earlier, in each case, if, subsequent to a Business Combination, the Company consummates a subsequent liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

In the event the Sponsor pays for any expense or liability on behalf of the Company, then such payments would be accounted for as loan to the Company by the Sponsor, Greenland Asset Management Corporation.

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company owed a balance of $27,931 and $36,784 to Greenland Asset Management Corporation.

(Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares)

The Company is authorized to issue 500,000,000 ordinary shares, with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each ordinary share.

In January 2021, the Company effected a 10 for 1 share split, resulting in an aggregate of 10 ordinary shares outstanding. All share and per-share amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect the share split.

On January 6, 2021, the Company issued an aggregate of 1,150,000 founder shares to the Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 in cash.

On March 26, 2021, the Company issued an additional 287,500 founder shares to the Sponsor in connection with a recapitalization.

On June 24, 2021, the Company sold 5,750,000 units at a price of $10.00 per Public Unit in the Initial Public Offering.

Simultaneously on June 24, 2021, the Company issued 270,500 ordinary shares under the private placement of 270,500 private units at $10 per unit, to the Sponsor.

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 2,361,185 and 10 ordinary shares issued and outstanding excluding 5,096,815 and 0 shares are subject to possible conversion.

Each holder of a right will receive one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon consummation of a Business Combination, even if the holder of such right redeemed all shares held by it in connection with a Business Combination. No fractional shares will be issued upon exchange of the rights. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of rights in order to receive its additional shares upon consummation of a Business Combination as the consideration related thereto has been included in the Unit purchase price paid for by investors in the Initial Public Offering. If the Company enters into a definitive agreement for a Business Combination in which the Company will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of rights to receive the same per share consideration the holders of the ordinary shares will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into ordinary share basis and each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively convert its rights in order to receive 1/10 share underlying each right (without paying additional consideration). The shares issuable upon exchange of the rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of the Company).

If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of rights will not receive any of such funds with respect to their rights, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such rights, and the rights will expire worthless. Further, there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver securities to the holders of the rights upon consummation of a Business Combination. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the rights. Accordingly, the rights may expire worthless.

Each public warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one-half (1/2) of one ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per full share, subject to adjustment as described in Form S-1 Amendment No. 2 filed on June 11, 2021. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a warrant holder may exercise its warrants only for a whole number of shares. This means that only an even number of warrants may be exercised at any given time by a warrant holder.

No public warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to such ordinary shares. It is the Company’s current intention to have an effective and current registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to such ordinary shares in effect promptly following consummation of an initial business combination.

(Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares)

The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) the consummation of a Business Combination or (b) 12 months from the effective date of the registration statement relating to the Initial Offering. No Public Warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants and a current prospectus relating to such ordinary shares. The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of a Business Combination, the Company will use its best efforts to file, and within 60 business days following a Business Combination to have declared effective, a registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Public Warrants is not effective within 60 days, the holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise the Public Warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act. If an exemption from registration is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their Public Warrants on a cashless basis. The Public Warrants will expire five years from the consummation of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company may call the warrants for redemption (excluding the Private Warrants), in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per warrant:

The Private Warrants will be identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units being sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Warrants and the ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and will be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.

(Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares)

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2021, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized to determine such fair value.

The private warrants are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities on the balance sheets.

The Company established the initial fair value for the private warrants at $625,000 on June 24, 2021, the date of the Company’s Initial Public Offering, using a Black-Scholes model. The Company allocated the proceeds received from the sale of Private Units, first to the private warrants based on their fair values as determined at initial measurement, with the remaining proceeds recorded as ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, and ordinary shares based on their relative fair values recorded at the initial measurement date. The warrants were classified as Level 3 at the initial measurement date due to the use of unobservable inputs.

The key inputs into the Black-Scholes model for the Private Warrants were as follows at their measurement dates:

(Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares)

As of June 30, 2021, the aggregate value of the private warrants was $0.625 million and there was immaterial change in fair value from June 24, 2021 to June 30, 2021.

To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may be materially higher or lower than the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for investments categorized in Level 3. Level 3 financial liabilities consist of the Warrant liability for which there is no current market for these securities such that the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation. Changes in fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are analyzed each period based on changes in estimates or assumptions and recorded as appropriate.

Management is currently evaluating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s future financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, there has been a significant impact as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the future outcome of this uncertainty.

Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into on June 24, 2021 the holders of the Founder Shares, Private Units (and their underlying securities) and any Units that may be issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans (and underlying securities) are entitled to registration rights. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the consummation of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

The underwriters are entitled to a deferred fee of two and one-half percent (2.5%) of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $1,437,500, of which the Company will have the right to pay up to 40% of such amount to other advisors retained by the Company to assist it in connection with a Business Combination. The deferred fee will be paid in cash upon the closing of a Business Combination from the amounts held in the Trust Account, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

In accordance with ASC Topic 855, “Subsequent Events”, which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before this unaudited financial statements are issued, the Company has evaluated all events or transactions that occurred after June 30, 2021, up through the date was the Company issued the unaudited condensed financial statements. During the period, the Company did not have any material subsequent events other than disclosed above.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Golden Path Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 and the related statements of operations, changes in shareholder’s deficit and cash flows for the each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2020 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, its business plan is dependent on the completion of a financing and the Company’s cash and working capital as of December 31, 2020 are not sufficient to complete its planned activities. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Notes 1 and 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB and in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

GOLDEN PATH ACQUISITION CORPORATION
STATEMENTS OF CHANGES IN SHAREHOLDER’S DEFICIT

Golden Path Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on May 9, 2018. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (“Business Combination”).

At December 31, 2020, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activity through December 31, 2020 relates to the Company’s formation and the proposed initial public offering (the “Proposed Offering”). The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Proposed Offering.

The Company’s ability to commence operations is contingent upon obtaining adequate financial resources through a Proposed Offering of 5,000,000 units at $10.00 per unit (or 5,750,000 units if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full) (the “Units” and, with respect to the ordinary shares included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”), which is discussed in Note 3 and the sale of 248,000 Units (or 270,500 Units if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full) (the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Unit in a private placement to the Company’s sponsor, Greenland Asset Management Corporation (the “Sponsor”), and the underwriters that will close simultaneously with the Proposed Offering.

The Company intends to list the Units on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“NASDAQ”). The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Proposed Offering and sale of the Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. NASDAQ rules provide that the Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Account (as defined below) (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned) at the time of the signing of an agreement to enter into a Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination. Upon the closing of the Proposed Offering, management has agreed that $10.10 per Unit sold in the Proposed Offering, including the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Units, will be held in a trust account (“Trust Account”) and invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 180 days or less, or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account to the Company’s shareholders, as described below.

The Company will provide its shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. In connection with a proposed Business Combination, the Company may seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which shareholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against a Business Combination. The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks shareholder approval, a majority of the outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination.

If the Company seeks shareholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provides that a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to 15% or more of the Public Shares without the Company’s prior written consent.

The shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially $10.10 per Public Share, subject to increase of up to an additional $0.30 per Public Share in the event that the Sponsor elects to extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination (see below), plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations). The per-share amount to be distributed to shareholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriter (as discussed in Note 7). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s rights or warrants. The ordinary shares will be recorded at redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Proposed Offering, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”

The Sponsor and any of the Company’s officers or directors that may hold Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) (the “initial shareholders”) and the underwriters will agree (a) to vote their Founder Shares, the ordinary shares included in the Private Placement Units (the “Private Shares”) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Proposed Offering in favor of a Business Combination, (b) not to propose an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association with respect to the Company’s pre-Business Combination activities prior to the consummation of a Business Combination unless the Company provides dissenting public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment; (c) not to redeem any shares (including the Founder Shares) and Private Shares into the right to receive cash from the Trust Account in connection with a shareholder vote to approve a Business Combination (or to sell any shares in a tender offer in connection with a Business Combination if the Company does not seek shareholder approval in connection therewith) or a vote to amend the provisions of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association relating to shareholders’ rights of pre-Business Combination activity and (d) that the Founder Shares and Private Shares shall not participate in any liquidating distributions upon winding up if a Business Combination is not consummated. However, the initial shareholders will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares purchased during or after the Proposed Offering if the Company fails to complete its Business Combination.

The Company will have 12 months from the closing of the Proposed Offering to consummate a Business Combination. However, if the Company anticipates that it may not be able to consummate a Business Combination within 12 months, the Company may extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to nine times, each by an additional month (for a total of 21 months to complete a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). In order to extend the time available for the Company to consummate a Business Combination, the Sponsor or its affiliate or designees must deposit into the Trust Account $166,667, or $191,667 if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full (approximately $0.033 per Public Share in either case), up to an aggregate of $1,500,000 (or $1,725,000 if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full), or $0.30 per Public Share, on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each one month extension. Any funds which may be provided to extend the time frame will be in the form of a loan to the Company from the Sponsor. The terms of any such loan have not been definitely negotiated, provided, however, any loan will be interest free and will be repayable only if the Company competes a Business Combination.

The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company, if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amounts in the Trust Account to below (i) $10.10 per share or (ii) such lesser amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Proposed Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

At December 31, 2020, the Company had $18,117 in cash and a working capital deficit of $69,207. The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its financing and acquisition plans. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Management plans to address this uncertainty through a Proposed Offering as discussed in Note 3. There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to raise capital or to consummate a Business Combination will be successful or successful within the Combination Period. In December 2020, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company up to an aggregate amount of $300,000 to be used, in part, for transaction costs incurred in connection with the Proposed Offering. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The accompanying financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars and conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

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

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of December 31, 2020 and 2019.

Deferred offering costs consist of underwriting, legal, accounting and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the Proposed Offering and that will be charged to shareholder’s equity upon the completion of the Proposed Offering. Should the Proposed Offering prove to be unsuccessful, these deferred costs, as well as additional expenses incurred, will be charged to operations.

The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s only major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.

The Company may be subject to potential examination by foreign taxing authorities in the area of income taxes. These potential examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with foreign tax laws. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

The Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. As such, the Company’s tax provision was zero for the periods presented.

Net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. There were no shares subject to forfeiture for the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for the periods presented.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution. The Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature.

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Pursuant to the Proposed Offering, the Company will offer for sale up to 5,000,000 Units (or 5,750,000 Units if the underwriters’ overallotment option is exercised in full) at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit will consist of one ordinary share, one right (“Public Right”) and one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each Public Right will convert into one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share. Each Public Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one-half of one ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share (see Note 8).

The Sponsor and the underwriters will agree to purchase an aggregate of 248,000 Private Placement Units (or 270,500 Private Placement Units if the underwriters’ over-allotment is exercised in full) at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, ($2,480,000 in the aggregate, or $2,705,000 in the aggregate if the underwriters’ over-allotment is exercised in full), in each case, from the Company in a private placement that will occur simultaneously with the closing of the Proposed Offering. The proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Units will be added to the net proceeds from the Proposed Offering held in the Trust Account. The Private Placement Units are identical to the Units sold in the Proposed Offering, except for the Private Placement Warrants (“Private Placement Warrants”), as described in Note 8. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Units will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Placement Units and underlying securities will be worthless.

The 1,437,500 ordinary shares (for purposes hereof referred to as the “Founder Shares”) include an aggregate of up to 187,500 shares subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment is not exercised in full or in part, so that the Sponsor will collectively own 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Proposed Offering (assuming the initial shareholders do not purchase any Public Units in the Proposed Offering and excluding the Private Shares underlying the Private Placement Units) (see Note 7).

The founders and the Company’s officers and directors have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares (except to certain permitted transferees) until, with respect to 50% of the Founder Shares, the earlier of (i) six months after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, or (ii) the date on which the closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after a Business Combination, with respect to the remaining 50% of the Founder Shares, upon six months after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, or earlier, in each case, if, subsequent to a Business Combination, the Company consummates a subsequent liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

As of December 31, 2020, the Sponsor had advanced the Company an aggregate of $36,784. The advances are non-interest bearing and due on demand. For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, advances from a related party amounted to $29,284 and $3,500, respectively.

On December 21, 2020, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note to the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $300,000 (the “Promissory Note”). The Promissory Note is non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2021 or (ii) the consummation of the Proposed Offering. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, there was $50,000 and $0 outstanding under the Promissory Note, respectively.

An affiliate of the Sponsor will agree that, commencing from the date that the Company’s securities are first listed on NASDAQ through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation, to make available to the Company certain general and administrative services, including office space, administrative and support services, as the Company may require from time to time. The Company has agreed to pay the affiliate of the Sponsor $10,000 per month for these services.

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s directors and officers may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into units of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per unit. The units would be identical to the Private Placement Units.

As discussed in Note 1, the Company may extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to nine times, each by an additional month (for a total of 21 months to complete a Business Combination). In order to extend the time available for the Company to consummate a Business Combination, the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees must deposit into the Trust Account $166,667, or $191,667 if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full (approximately $0.033 per Public Share in either case), up to an aggregate of $1,500,000 (or $1,725,000 if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full), or $0.30 per Public Share, on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each one month extension. Any such payments would be made in the form of a loan. The terms of the promissory note to be issued in connection with any such loans have not yet been negotiated. If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination, the Company will not repay such loans. Furthermore, the letter agreement with the initial shareholders contains a provision pursuant to which the Sponsor has agreed to waive its right to be repaid for such loans in the event that the Company does not complete a Business Combination. The Sponsor and its affiliates or designees are not obligated to fund the Trust Account to extend the time for the Company to complete a Business Combination.

Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Units (and their underlying securities) and any Units that may be issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans (and underlying securities) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date of the Proposed Offering requiring the Company to register such securities for resale. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

The Company entered into short-term agreements for temporary office space expiring through March 31, 2021. For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred rent expense of $14,405 and $0, respectively. The remaining amounts due under these agreements for the 12 months ending December 31, 2021 is approximately $5,000.

Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue 500,000,000 ordinary shares, with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each ordinary share. At December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 there were 10 ordinary shares issued and outstanding.

Rights — Each holder of a right will receive one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon consummation of a Business Combination, even if the holder of such right redeemed all shares held by it in connection with a Business Combination. No fractional shares will be issued upon exchange of the rights. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of rights in order to receive its additional shares upon consummation of a Business Combination as the consideration related thereto has been included in the Unit purchase price paid for by investors in the Proposed Offering. If the Company enters into a definitive agreement for a Business Combination in which the Company will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of rights to receive the same per share consideration the holders of the ordinary shares will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into ordinary share basis and each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively convert its rights in order to receive 1/10 share underlying each right (without paying additional consideration). The shares issuable upon exchange of the rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of the Company).

Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) the consummation of a Business Combination or (b) 12 months from the effective date of the registration statement relating to the Proposed Offering. No Public Warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants and a current prospectus relating to such ordinary shares. The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of a Business Combination, the Company will use its best efforts to file, and within 60 business days following a Business Combination to have declared effective, a registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Public Warrants is not effective within 60 days, the holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise the Public Warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act. If an exemption from registration is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their Public Warrants on a cashless basis. The Public Warrants will expire five years from the consummation of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company may call the warrants for redemption (excluding the Private Placement Warrants):

The Private Placement Warrants will be identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units being sold in the Proposed Offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions and the Private Placement Warrants underlying Private Placement Units issued to the underwriter may not be exercised after five years from the effective date of the Proposed Offering. Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

The Company expect to account for the 5,248,000 warrants to be issued in connection with the Proposed Offering (including 5,000,000 Public Warrants and 248,000 Private Warrants assuming the underwriters’ over-allotment option is not exercised) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40. Such guidance provides that because the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment thereunder, each warrant must be recorded as a liability. Accordingly, the Company will classify each warrant as a liability at its fair value. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date. With each such re-measurement, the warrant liability will be adjusted to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company’s statement of operations.

The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the financial statements were available to be issued. Based upon this review, other than as described below, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

Subsequent to December 31, 2020, the Company cancelled the 10 ordinary shares for no consideration and the Company’s sponsor purchased an aggregate of 1,437,500 founder shares, an aggregate of up to 187,500 shares subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment is not exercised in full or in part, for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.02 per share.

The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any other interim period or for the full year of 2021. Accordingly, these statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and note thereto as of and for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances between the Company and its subsidiaries are eliminated upon consolidation.

Subsidiaries are those entities in which the Company, directly or indirectly, controls more than one half of the voting power; or has the power to govern the financial and operating policies, to appoint or remove the majority of the members of the board of directors, or to cast a majority of votes at the meeting of directors.

The preparation of unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill, allowance for doubtful accounts, revenue recognition, inventory reserve, purchase price allocation for business combination, uncertain tax position, and deferred taxes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The functional currency of the Company, Menyun HK, Broadvision HK and Mcloudvr HK is in US dollars and the functional currency of the Company’s other subsidiaries are Renminbi (“RMB”), as determined based on the criteria of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 830 “Foreign Currency Matters”. The reporting currency of the Company is also the RMB.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the rates of exchange in place at the balance sheet date. Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency during the year are converted into the functional currency at the applicable rates of exchange prevailing when the transactions occurred. Transaction gains and losses are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations.

In the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the financial information of the Company and other entities located outside of the PRC has been translated into RMB. Assets and liabilities of the Company translated from their respective functional currencies to the reporting currency at the exchange rates at the balance sheet dates, equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates and revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates in effect during the reporting period. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustment are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss).

The balance sheet amounts, with the exception of shareholders’ equity for MC and Mengyun HK, Mcloudvr HK, Broadvision HK at December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2021 were translated at RMB 1.00 to USD 0.1533 and to USD 0.1547, respectively. The average translation rates applied to statement of income accounts for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2021 were RMB 1.00 and to USD 0.1422, and USD 0.1546, respectively. The shareholders’ equity accounts were stated at their historical rate. Cash flows are also translated at average translation rates for the periods, therefore, amounts reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheet.

Translations of balances in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheets, unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of income and unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of cash flows from RMB into USD as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2021 are solely for the convenience of the reader and were calculated at the rate of RMB 1.00 to USD 0.1547, representing the mid-point reference rate set by Peoples’ Bank of China on June 30, 2021. No representation is made that the RMB amounts represent or could have been, or could be, converted, realized or settled into USD at that rate, or at any other rate.

Cash and cash equivalents primarily consists of bank deposits with original maturities of three months or less, which are unrestricted as to withdrawal and use. Cash and cash equivalents also consist of funds earned from the Company’s operating revenues which were held at third party platform fund accounts which are unrestricted as to immediate use or withdrawal. The Company maintains most of its bank accounts in the PRC.

Accounts receivable include trade accounts due from customers. Accounts are considered overdue after 90 days. Management reviews its receivables on a regular basis to determine if the bad debt allowance is adequate, and provides an allowance when necessary. The allowance is based on management’s best estimates of specific losses on individual customer exposures, as well as the historical trends of collections. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the likelihood of collection is not probable. As of December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2021, the Company has RMB 1,366,117 and RMB 1,375,366 (USD 212,803) of an allowance for doubtful accounts for accounts receivable, respectively.

Inventories are comprised of raw material and finish goods are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the weighted average method. Cost of finished goods comprise direct material and outsourced assembling costs. Management reviews inventories for obsolescence and cost in excess of net realizable value periodically when appropriate and records a reserve against the inventory when the carrying value exceeds net realizable value. As of December 31, 2020, and June 30, 2021 and, the Company has an allowance of RMB 88,412 and RMB 91,518 (USD 14,160), respectively.

Prepayments and other current assets are mainly payments made to vendors or service providers for purchasing goods or services that have not been received or provided, deposits for rent and utilities and employee advances. This amount is refundable and bears no interest. Prepayment and deposit are classified as either current or non-current based on the terms of the respective agreements. These advances are unsecured and are reviewed periodically to determine whether their carrying value has become impaired. As of December 31, 2020, and June 30, 2021, the Company made RMB 8,306 and RMB 8,306 (USD 1,285) allowance for noncurrent prepayments and deposits, respectively.

Due from related parties primarily includes overpayment of acquisition payable to the prior owner of the entity, which the Company acquired in 2017 and advances to the Company’s equity investment investee for operational purpose, which are no interest and due on demand. Management regularly reviews the aging of receivables and changes in payment trends and records allowances when management believes collection of amounts due are at risk. Accounts considered uncollectable are written off against allowances after exhaustive efforts at collection are made.

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment if applicable. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets with a 5% residual value. The estimated useful lives are as follows:

The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred, while additions, renewals and betterments, which are expected to extend the useful life of assets, are capitalized. The Company also re-evaluates the periods of depreciation to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives.

The Company’s intangible assets with definite useful lives primarily consist of customer relationships, software, and non-competing agreements. Identifiable intangible assets resulting from the acquisitions of subsidiaries accounted for using the purchase method of accounting are estimated by management based on the fair value of assets received. The Company amortizes its intangible assets with definite useful lives over their estimated useful lives and reviews these assets for impairment. The Company typically amortizes its intangible assets with definite useful lives on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the contractual terms or the estimated useful lives of three to ten years.

The Company has the option to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform further impairment testing in accordance with ASC 350-20, as amended by ASU 2017-04. If the Company believes, as a result of the qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the impairment test described below is required. The Company compares the fair values of each reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill is not considered to be impaired. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, impairment is recognized for the difference, limited to the amount of goodwill recognized for the reporting unit. Estimating fair value is performed by utilizing various valuation techniques, with the primary technique being discounted cash flows.

Long-lived assets, including property and equipment and intangible assets with finite lives are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (such as a significant adverse change to market conditions that will impact the future use of the assets) indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company assesses the recoverability of the assets based on the undiscounted future cash flows the assets are expected to generate and recognize an impairment loss when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset plus net proceeds expected from disposition of the asset, if any, are less than the carrying value of the asset. If an impairment is identified, the Company would reduce the carrying amount of the asset to its estimated fair value based on a discounted cash flows approach or, when available and appropriate, to comparable market values. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2021, no impairment of long-lived assets was recognized.

The Company’s investments in unconsolidated entities consist of equity investments without readily determinable fair value.

The Company follows ASC Topic 321, Investments Equity Securities (“ASC 321”) to account for investments that do not have readily determinable fair value and over which the Company does not have significant influence. The Company uses the measurement alternative to measure those investments at cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer, if any.

An impairment charge is recorded if the carrying amount of the investment exceeds its fair value and this condition is determined to be other-than temporary. As of December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2021, the Company has equity investments without readily determinable fair value for two entities with 4.44% and 19.90% with investment amount RMB 500,000 (USD 77,362) and RMB 2,000,000 (USD 309,449), respectively. The Company recorded a full impairment charge against its investments in 2018.

The purchase price of an acquired company is allocated between tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed from the acquired business based on their estimated fair values, with the residual of the purchase price recorded as goodwill. Transaction costs associated with business combinations are expensed as incurred, and are included in general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. The results of operations of the acquired business are included in the Company’s operating results from the date of acquisition.

U.S. GAAP regarding fair value of financial instruments and related fair value measurements defines financial instruments and requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company.

U.S. GAAP defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follow:

-Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

-Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.

-Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.

Financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities are reported in the consolidated balance sheets at face value or cost, which approximate fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rates of interest.

The Company adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC Topic 606) on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective method for contracts that were not completed as of December 31, 2018. The ASU requires the use of a new five-step model to recognize revenue from customer contracts. The five-step model requires that the Company (i) identifies the contract with the customer, (ii) identifies the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determines the transaction price, including variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant future reversal will not occur, (iv) allocates the transaction price to the respective performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognizes revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligation.

Prior to fiscal year 2019, the Company recognizes revenue when all of the following have occurred: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the price or fees are fixed or determinable, and (iv) the ability to collect is reasonably assured. Revenue is presented in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income net of sales taxes. The Company does not offer rights of refund of previously paid or delivered amounts, rebates, rights of return or price protection. In all instances, the Company limits the amount of revenue recognized to the amounts for which it has the right to bill its’ customers.

The application of the five-step model to the revenue streams compared to the prior guidance did not result in significant changes in the way the Company records its revenue. Upon adoption, the Company evaluated its revenue recognition policy for all revenue streams within the scope of the ASU under previous standards and using the five-step model under the new guidance and confirmed that there were no differences in the pattern of revenue recognition. The Company applied practical expedient when sales taxes were collected from customers, meaning sales tax is recorded net of revenue, instead of cost of revenue, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities and are excluded from the transaction price.

The Company’s revenue recognition policies effective upon the adoption of ASC 606 are as follows:

The Company generates LiDAR revenue through selling integrated circuit board embedded with holographic software. The Company typically enters into written contracts with its customer where the rights of the parties, including payment terms, are identified and sales prices to the customers are fixed with no separate sales rebate, discount, or other incentive and no right of return exists on sales of inventory. The Company’s performance obligation is to deliver products according to contract specifications. The Company recognizes product revenue at a point in time when the control of products are transferred to customers.

b. Holographic Technology Intelligence Vision software and Technology Development Service

The Company generates revenue by developing ADAS software and technology, which are generally on a fixed-priced basis. The Company has no alternative use for the customized software and the Company has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. Revenues from ADAS software development contracts are recognized over time during the contract period based on the Company’s measurement of progress towards completion using input method, which is usually measured by comparing labor hours expended to date to total estimated labor hours needed to satisfy the performance obligation. Assumptions, risks and uncertainties inherent in the estimates used to measure progress could affect the amount of revenues, receivables and deferred revenues at each reporting period. The Company has a long history of developing various ADAS software resulting in its ability to reasonably estimate the progress toward completion on each fixed price customized contracts.

The Company provides holographic content products and holographic software for music videos, shows, and commercials on a fixed-price basis. These contents and software are generally pre-developed and exist when made available to the customer. Content products are delivered through its website or offline using hard drive.

Revenues from licensing and content products are recognized upfront at the point in time when the control of products or services is transferred to customers. No upgrades, maintenance, or any other post-contract customer support are provided.

The Company is a distributer of holographic hardware and generates revenue through resale. In accordance with ASC 606, revenue recognition: principal agent consideration, an entity is a principal if it controls the specified good or service before that good or service is transferred to a customer. Otherwise, the entity is an agent in the transaction. The Company evaluates three indicators of control in accordance with ASU 2016-08: 1) For hardware sales, the Company is the most visible entity to customers and assumes fulfillment risk and risks related to the acceptability of products, including addressing customer complaints directly and handling of product returns or refunds directly. 2) The Company is exposed to inventory risk after transfer of control to customers by accepting product returns and being required to mitigate any resulting losses by reselling the product or negotiating returns with the vendor. 3) The Company determines the resale price of hardware products. After evaluating the above scenario, the Company considers itself the principal of these arrangements and records hardware sales revenue on a gross basis.

Hardware sales contracts are on a fixed price basis with no separate sales rebate, discount, or other incentive and no right of return exists on sales of inventory. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when the Company has delivered products and the acceptance by its customer with no future obligation.

Holographic advertisements are the use of holographic technology integrated into advertisements on media platforms or offline display. The Company enters advertising contracts with advertisers where the amounts cost per action (“CPA”) are fixed and determinable. The Company provides its advertising service to channel providers where the amounts cost per action are also fixed and determinable. Revenue is recognized at a point of time on a CPA basis when agreed actions are performed. The Company considers itself as provider of the services as it has the control of the services at any time before it is transferred to the customers which is evidenced by 1) having a right to a service to be performed by the other party, which gives the Company the ability to direct that party to provide the service to the customers on the Company’s behalf. 2) having discretion in setting the price for the service 3) billing monthly advertising fee directly to customers by settling valid CPA data with customers. Therefore, the Company acts as the principal of these arrangements and reports revenue earned and costs incurred related to these transactions on a gross basis.

The Company’s SDK service is a collection of software development tools in one installable package that enables customers (usually software developers) to add holographic functionality and run holographic advertisements in their APPs or software. SDK contracts are primarily on a fixed rate basis, or cost per SDK Connection. The Company recognizes SDK service revenue at a point in time when a user completes an SDK connection via a designated portal. Service fees are generally billed monthly based on per-connection basis.

The Company records receivable related to revenue when it has an unconditional right to invoice and receive payment.

Payments received from customers before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition met are recorded as deferred revenues.

The Company’s disaggregate revenue streams are summarized and disclosed in Note 18.

For holographic technology service, the cost of revenue consists primarily of costs paid to channel distributors for advertising services and compensation expenses for the Company’s professionals.

Advertising costs amounted to RMB 3,534,414 and RMB 53,393 (USD 8,261) for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2021, respectively. The change was mainly due to the promotion of the website which selling holographic content. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and included in selling expenses.

Research and development expenses include salaries and other compensation-related expenses to the Company’s research and product development personnel, outsourced subcontractors, as well as office rental, depreciation and related expenses for the Company’s research and product development team.

Revenue represents the invoiced value of service, net of VAT. VAT is based on the gross sales price. The VAT rate is 6% on services and 13% (16% prior to April 1, 2019) on goods in China. Entities that are VAT general taxpayers are allowed to offset qualified input VAT paid to suppliers against their output VAT liabilities. Net VAT balance between input VAT and output VAT is recorded in taxes payable. All of the VAT returns filed by the Company’s subsidiaries in China, have been and remain subject to examination by the tax authorities for five years from the date of filing.

The Company are accounted for current income taxes in accordance with the laws of the relevant tax authorities. The charge for taxation is based on the results for the fiscal year as adjusted for items, which are non-assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Other income includes government subsidies which are amounts granted by local government authorities as an incentive for companies to promote development of the local technology industry. The Company receives government subsidies, and records such government subsidies as a liability when it is received. The Company records government subsidies as other income when there is no further performance obligation. Total government subsidies amounted to RMB 73,660 and RMB 948,251 (USD 146,718)) for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2021, respectively.

Other income also includes RMB 68,660 and RMB 528,400 (USD 81,756) of input VAT credits the Company redeemed during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2021, respectively. As part of VAT reform in 2019, from April 1, 2019 to December 31, 2021, a taxpayer in certain service industries could claim an additional 10% of input VAT credit based on total input VAT paid to suppliers, the credit was applied to offset with the Company’s VAT payable.

A lease for which substantially all the benefits and risks incidental to ownership remain with the lessor is classified by the lessee as an operating lease. All leases of the Company are currently classified as operating leases. The Company records lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Pursuant to the laws applicable to the PRC, PRC entities must make appropriations from after-tax profit to the non-distributable “statutory surplus reserve fund”. Subject to certain cumulative limits, the “statutory surplus reserve fund” requires annual appropriations of 10% of after-tax profit until the aggregated appropriations reach 50% of the registered capital (as determined under accounting principles generally accepted in the PRC (“PRC GAAP”) at each year-end). For foreign invested enterprises and joint ventures in the PRC, annual appropriations should be made to the “reserve fund”. For foreign invested enterprises, the annual appropriation for the “reserve fund” cannot be less than 10% of after-tax profits until the aggregated appropriations reach 50% of the registered capital (as determined under PRC GAAP at each year-end). If the Company has accumulated loss from prior periods, the Company is able to use the current period net income after tax to offset against the accumulate loss.

The Company computes earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share”. ASC 260 requires companies to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as net income divided by the weighted average common share outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of the potential common shares (e.g., convertible securities, options and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

ASC 280, “Segment Reporting”, establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company’s internal organizational structure as well as information about geographical areas, business segments and major customers in financial statements for detailing the Company’s business segments.

The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews the financial information of the separate operating segments when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing the performance of the group. The Company has determined that it has two operating segments: (1) Holographic solutions, and (2) Holographic technology service.

The full-time employees of the Company are entitled to staff welfare benefits including medical care, housing fund, pension benefits, unemployment insurance and other welfare, which are government mandated defined contribution plans. The Company is required to accrue for these benefits based on certain percentages of the employees’ respective salaries, subject to certain ceilings, in accordance with the relevant PRC regulations, and make cash contributions to the state-sponsored plans out of the amounts accrued. Total expenses for the plans were RMB 70,065 and RMB 1,603,771 (USD 248,143) for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2021, respectively.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), to increase the transparency and comparability about leases among entities. The new guidance requires lessees to recognize a lease liability and a corresponding lease asset for virtually all lease contracts. It also requires additional disclosures about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and requires a modified retrospective approach to adoption assuming the Company will remain an emerging growth company at that date. Early adoption is permitted. In September 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-13, which to clarify effective dates that public business entities and other entities were required to adopt ASC Topic 842 for annual reporting. A public business entity that otherwise would not meet the definition of a public business entity except for a requirement to include or the inclusion of its financial statements or financial information in another entity’s filing with the SEC adopting ASC Topic 842 for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021. ASU No. 2017-13 also amended that all components of a leveraged lease be recalculated from inception of the lease based on the revised after tax cash flows arising from the change in the tax law, including revised tax rates. The difference between the amounts originally recorded and the recalculated amounts must be included in income of the year in which the tax law is enacted. The Company has not early adopted this update and it will become effective on January 1, 2022 after FASB delayed the effective date for non-public companies with ASU 2020-05. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, which is an update to ASU Update No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which introduced the expected credit losses methodology for the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost basis, replacing the previous incurred loss methodology. The amendments in Update 2016-13 added Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, and made several consequential amendments to the Codification. Update 2016-13 also modified the accounting for available-for-sale debt securities, which must be individually assessed for credit losses when fair value is less than the amortized cost basis, in accordance with Subtopic 326-30, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses—Available-for-Sale Debt Securities. The amendments in this Update address those stakeholders’ concerns by providing an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option for certain financial assets previously measured at amortized cost basis. For those entities, the targeted transition relief will increase comparability of financial statement information by providing an option to align measurement methodologies for similar financial assets. Furthermore, the targeted transition relief also may reduce the costs for some entities to comply with the amendments in Update 2016-13 while still providing financial statement users with decision-useful information. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, which to update the effective date of ASU No. 2016-02 for private companies, not-for-profit organizations and certain smaller reporting companies applying for credit losses, leases, and hedging standard. The new effective date for these preparers is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is still evaluating the impact of the adoption of this ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In October 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-08, “Codification Improvements to Subtopic 310-20, Receivables—Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs”. The amendments in this Update represent changes to clarify the Codification. The amendments make the Codification easier to understand and easier to apply by eliminating inconsistencies and providing clarifications. ASU 2020-08 is effective for the Company for annual and interim reporting periods beginning July 1, 2021. Early application is not permitted. All entities should apply the amendments in this Update on a prospective basis as of the beginning of the period of adoption for existing or newly purchased callable debt securities. These amendments do not change the effective dates for Update 2017-08. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Except as mentioned above, the Company does not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, statements of income and comprehensive income and statements of cash flows.

On July 1, 2020, Shenzhen Mengyun entered into acquisition agreement to acquire 100% equity interests of Shenzhen Bowei, a provider of holographic PCBA solutions. The transaction consummated on July 1, 2020. According to the agreement, acquisition consideration is RMB 20,000,000 (approximately USD 3.1 million) to acquire the 100% equity interests of Shenzhen Bowei, which was included in current liabilities of the accompanying financial statements. The consideration was subsequently paid in July 2021.

The main businesses of Shenzhen Bowei are in the strategic section of automotive electronics to promote the application of holographic vision technology in the field of automotive intelligent driving, and bring a more comfortable and safe driving experience to drivers and passengers. Main products include a Holographic Look around Parking System and Holographic Face Recognition System. After integrating Shenzhen Bowei into Shenzhen Mengyun, the Company plans to both retain and strengthen Shenzhen Bowei’s current team, to further promote the application of holographic technology in the automotive electronics products industry.

The Company’s acquisition of Shenzhen Bowei was accounted for as business combinations in accordance with ASC 805. The Company has allocated the purchase price of Shenzhen Bowei based upon the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date. The Company estimated the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date in accordance with the business combination standard issued by FASB with the valuation methodologies using level 3 inputs, except for cash was valued using Level 1 inputs. Management of the Company is responsible for determining the fair value of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and intangible assets identified as of the acquisition date and considered a number of factors including valuations from an independent appraiser firm. Acquisition-related costs incurred for the acquisitions are not material and have been expensed as incurred in general and administrative expense.

The following table summarizes the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date, which represents the net purchase price allocation on the date of the acquisition of Shenzhen Bowei based on valuation performed by an independent valuation firm engaged by the Company:

Acquired amortizable intangible assets includes customer relationship, software, and non-compete agreements. Customer relationship, including the customer list, the awareness of customer views and expectations and continuous interactions with customers, with a fair value of approximately RMB 1.3 million (USD 201,142) and estimated finite useful life of 3.5 years. Software, including the ADAS technology, with a fair value of approximately RMB 10.2 million (USD 1.6 million) and estimated finite useful life of 5.5 years. Non-compete agreement, including the non-compete agreements signed with former investors of companies acquired, with a fair value of approximately RMB 400,000 (USD 61,329) and estimated finite useful life of 5.5 years.

Approximately RMB 9.7 million (USD 1.5 million) of goodwill arising from the acquisition is mainly attributable to the excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of the net assets acquired that cannot be recognized separately as identifiable assets under U.S. GAAP, and comprise (a) the assembled work force and (b) the expected but unidentifiable business growth as a result of the synergy resulting from the acquisition.

The following table summarizes the unaudited pro forma of Shenzhen Bowei for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as if the acquisition was completed on January 1, 2020. The pro forma results have been prepared for comparative purpose only based on management’s best estimate and do not purport to be indicative of the results of operations which actually would have resulted had the acquisitions occurred as of the beginning of period:

* To adjust the amortization of intangibles due to the business acquisition and related tax effect.

On October 1, 2020, Shenzhen Mengyun entered into acquisition agreement to acquire 100% equity interests of Shenzhen Tianyuemeng, an entity focused on holographic advertising services. The transaction consummated on October 1, 2020. According to the agreement, acquisition consideration is RMB 30,000,000 (approximately USD 4.6 million) to acquire the 100% equity interests of Shenzhen Tianyuemeng, which was included in current liabilities of the accompanying financial statements. The consideration was subsequently paid in June 2021.

The main businesses of Shenzhen Tianyuemeng are in the strategic section to provide customized professional advertising and marketing services for enterprises. After integrating Shenzhen Tianyuemeng into Shenzhen Mengyun, the Company will own Shenzhen Tianyuemeng’s networks on channels of distributor and operator to provide more valuable information services to end customers.

The Company’s acquisition of Shenzhen Tianyuemeng was accounted for as business combinations in accordance with ASC 805. The Company has allocated the purchase price of Shenzhen Tianyuemeng based upon the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date. The Company estimated the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date in accordance with the business combination standard issued by FASB with the valuation methodologies using level 3 inputs, except for cash was valued using Level 1 inputs. Management of the Company is responsible for determining the fair value of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and intangible assets identified as of the acquisition date and considered a number of factors including valuations from an independent appraiser firm. Acquisition-related costs incurred for the acquisitions are not material and have been expensed as incurred in general and administrative expense.

The following table summarizes the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date, which represents the net purchase price allocation on the date of the acquisition of Shenzhen Tianyuemeng based on valuation performed by an independent valuation firm engaged by the Company:

Acquired amortizable intangible assets includes customer relationship, software, and non-compete agreements. Customer relationship, including the customer list, the awareness of customer views and expectations and continuous interactions with customers, with a fair value of approximately RMB 12 million (USD 1.9 million) and estimated finite useful life of 5.2 years. Software, including advertising serving platform, with a fair value of approximately RMB 4.5 million (USD 696,260) and estimated finite useful life of 3.2 years. Non-compete agreement, including the non-compete agreements signed with former investors of companies acquired, with a fair value of approximately RMB 1.9 million (USD 293,977) and estimated finite useful life of 5.2 years.

Approximately RMB 11.4 million (USD 1.8 million) of goodwill arising from the acquisition is mainly attributable to the excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of the net assets acquired that cannot be recognized separately as identifiable assets under U.S. GAAP, and comprise (a) the assembled work force and (b) the expected but unidentifiable business growth as a result of the synergy resulting from the acquisition.

Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration paid of an acquisition over the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the acquired subsidiaries at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is not amortized and is tested for impairment at least annually, more often when circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred. The following table summarizes the components of acquired goodwill balances as of:

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill allocated to reportable segments as of December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2021 are as follows

The Company tests for impairment annually, and between annual tests if the Company becomes aware of an event or a change in circumstances that would indicate the carrying value may be impaired. Accordingly, the Company performed a quantitative assessment of the Company’s fair value of goodwill as of June 30, 2021 using an income approach with assumptions that are considered level 3 inputs with the assistance of a third party valuation firm. The Company concluded that the carrying value did not exceed its fair value, and no goodwill impairment for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The fair values were determined primarily by discounting estimated future cash flows, which were primarily determined based on revenue and expense growth assumptions and weighted average cost of capital, among other factors.

On June 30, 2021, the Company entered into a loan agreement with another third party to borrow funds for operations amount to RMB 10,000,000 (USD 1,547,245). The loans are interest free, no collateral and is due on December 31, 2021.

The subsidiaries incorporated in the PRC are governed by the income tax laws of the PRC and the income tax provision for operations in the PRC is calculated at the applicable tax rates on the taxable income for the periods based on existing legislation, interpretations and practices in respect thereof. Under the Enterprise Income Tax Laws of the PRC (the “EIT Laws”), domestic enterprises and Foreign Investment Enterprises (the “FIE”) are subject to a unified 25% enterprise income tax rate while preferential tax rates, tax holidays and even tax exemptions may be granted on a case-by-case basis. EIT grants preferential tax treatment to certain High and New Technology Enterprises (“HNTEs”). Under this preferential tax treatment, HNTEs are entitled to an income tax rate of 15%, subject to a requirement that they re-apply for HNTE status every three years. Shanghai Mengyun obtained the “high-tech enterprise” tax status in October 2017 and further renewed in December 2020, which reduced its statutory income tax rate to 15% from January 2017 to December 2023. Shenzhen Mengyun obtained the “high-tech enterprise” tax status in November 2018, which reduced its statutory income tax rate to 15% from January 2018 to December 2020.

These companies are not subject to income tax for 5 years and can obtain another two years of tax exempt status and three years at reduced income tax rate of 12.5% after the 5 years due to the local tax policies to attract companies in various industries.

The Ministry of Finance (“MOF”) and State Administration of Taxation (“SAT”) on January 17, 2019 jointly issued Cai Shui 2019 No. 13. This clarified that from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2021, eligible small enterprises whose RMB 1,000,000 of annual taxable income is eligible for a 75% reduction on a rate of 20% (i.e., effective rate is 5%) and the income between RMB 1,000,000 and RMB 3,000,000 is eligible for 50% reduction on a rate of 20% (i.e. effective rate is 10%). For the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, Shenzhen Tianyuemeng, Yijia Network, and Qianhai Youshi were eligible to employ this policy.

Tax savings for those entities in Xinjiang province and for those entities eligible for small enterprises for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2021 amounted to RMB 366,535 and RMB 11,273,752 (USD 1,742,412), respectively. The preferential tax rate reduction increased earnings per share by RMB 0.00 and RMB 0.09 (USD 0.01) for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2021, respectively.

The following table reconciles China statutory rates to the Company’s effective tax rate:

The Company evaluated the recoverable amounts of deferred tax assets, and provided a valuation allowance to the extent that future taxable profits will be available against which the net operating loss and temporary differences can be utilized. Valuation allowance is provided against deferred tax assets when the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be utilized in the future. In making such determination, the Company considered factors including future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences and tax loss carry forwards. Valuation allowance was provided for net operating loss carry forward because it was more likely than not that such deferred tax assets would not be realized based on the Company’s estimate of its future taxable income. If events occur in the future that allow the Company to realize more of its deferred income tax than the presently recorded amounts, an adjustment to the valuation allowances will result in a decrease in tax expense when those events occur. The valuation allowance increased by RMB 164,309 and decreased by RMB 433,388 (USD 67,056) for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

The Company recognized deferred tax liabilities related to the excess of the intangible assets reporting basis over its income tax basis as a result of fair value adjustment from acquisitions in 2020. The deferred tax liabilities will reverse as the intangible assets are amortized for financial statement reporting purposes.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of RMB 4,052,444 (USD 627,012), which arose from Shanghai Mengyun, Qianai Youshi, Yijia Nework and Shenzhen Bowei, the subsidiaries established in the PRC and will expire during the period from 2021 to 2025.

The Company evaluates each uncertain tax position (including the potential application of interest and penalties) based on the technical merits, and measure the unrecognized benefits associated with the tax positions. As of December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2021, the Company did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions. The Company did not incur any interest and penalties related to potential underpaid income tax expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2021, and also does not anticipate any significant increases or decreases in unrecognized tax benefits in the next 12 months from June 30, 2021.

Revenue represents the invoiced value of service, net of VAT. The VAT are based on gross sales price. VAT rate is 6% on services and 13% on goods in China.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and short-term investments. In China, the insurance coverage for cash deposits at each bank is RMB 500,000. As of December 31, 2020, and June 30, 2021, cash balance of RMB 30,682,374 and RMB 49,335,941 (USD 7,633,479) was deposited with financial institutions located in China, of which RMB 24,589,026 and RMB 42,191,062 (USD 6,527,991) was uninsured. While management believes that these financial institutions are of high credit quality, it also continually monitors their credit worthiness.

A majority of the Company’s expense transactions are denominated in RMB and a significant portion of the Company and its subsidiaries’ assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB. RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. In the PRC, certain foreign exchange transactions are required by law to be transacted only by authorized financial institutions at exchange rates set by the PBOC. Remittances in currencies other than RMB by the Company in China must be processed through the PBOC or other China foreign exchange regulatory bodies which require certain supporting documentation in order to affect the remittance.

To the extent that the Company needs to convert U.S. dollars into RMB for capital expenditures and working capital and other business purposes, appreciation of RMB against the U.S. dollar would have an adverse effect on the RMB amount the Company would receive from the conversion. Conversely, if the Company decides to convert RMB into U.S. dollar for the purpose of making payments for dividends, strategic acquisition or investments or other business purposes, appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the RMB would have a negative effect on the U.S. dollar amount available to the Company.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, one customer accounted for 41.4% of the Company’s total revenues. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, one customer accounted for 22.5% of the Company’s total revenues.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, two vendors accounted for 49.2%, and 10.2% of the Company’s total purchases, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, three vendors accounted for 14.3%, 11.1% and 10.1% of the Company’s total purchases, respectively.

As of December 31, 2020, three vendors accounted for 25.2%, 17.0%, and 11.2% of the Company’s accounts payable, respectively. As of June 30, 2021, four vendors accounted for 42.6%, 19.6%, 10.8% and 10.2% of the Company’s accounts payable, respectively.

MC was established under the laws of Cayman Islands on November 10, 2020 with authorized share of 500,000,000 ordinary shares with a par value of USD 0.0001 each.

In September 2021, MC issued 132,000,000 ordinary shares, and the shares were presented on a retroactive basis as if they were issued and outstanding at the beginning of the period presented pursuant to the reorganization as stated in Note 1.

The Company’s ability to pay dividends is primarily dependent on the Company receiving distributions of funds from its subsidiary. Relevant PRC statutory laws and regulations permit payments of dividends by Beijing Xihuiyun and Shanghai Mengyun (collectively “Mengyun PRC entities”) only out of its retained earnings, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. The results of operations reflected in the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP differ from those reflected in the statutory financial statements of Mengyun PRC entities.

Mengyun PRC entities are required to set aside at least 10% of their after-tax profits each year, if any, to fund certain statutory reserve funds until such reserve funds reach 50% of its registered capital. In addition, Mengyun PRC entities may allocate a portion of its after-tax profits based on PRC accounting standards to an enterprise expansion fund and staff bonus and welfare fund at its discretion. Mengyun PRC entities may allocate a portion of its after-tax profits based on PRC accounting standards to a discretionary surplus fund at its discretion. The statutory reserve funds and the discretionary funds are not distributable as cash dividends. Remittance of dividends by a wholly foreign-owned company out of China is subject to examination by the banks designated by State Administration of Foreign Exchange.

As a result of the foregoing restrictions, Mengyun PRC entities are restricted in their ability to transfer their assets to the Company. Foreign exchange and other regulations in the PRC may further restrict Mengyun PRC entities from transferring funds to the Company in the form of dividends, loans and advances. As of June 30, 2021, amounts restricted are the paid-in-capital and statutory reserve of Mengyun PRC entities, which amounted to RMB 36,493,406 (USD 5,646,424)

During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2021, Mengyun PRC entities collectively attributed RMB nil and RMB 780,655(USD 120,786), of retained earnings for their statutory reserves, respectively.

The Company entered into several non-cancellable operating lease agreements for offices. The Company’s commitment for minimum lease payments under the remaining operating leases as of June 30, 2021 for the next five years is as follows:

Rental expense of the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2021 were approximately RMB 626,605 and RMB 1,089,921 (USD 168,637), respectively.

From time to time, the Company is party to certain legal proceedings, as well as certain asserted and un-asserted claims. Amounts accrued, as well as the total amount of reasonably possible losses with respect to such matters, individually and in the aggregate, are not deemed to be material to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

The ongoing outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has spread rapidly to many parts of the world. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 as a pandemic. The pandemic has resulted in quarantines, travel restrictions, and the temporary closure of stores and business facilities in China from February to mid-March in 2020. All of the Company’s business operations and the workforce are concentrated in China, so the Company closed offices and implemented work-from-home policy during that period. Due to the nature of the Company’s business, the impact of the closure on the operational capabilities was not significant. However, the Company’s customers were negatively impacted by the pandemic and reduced their budgets for online advertising and marketing. Potential impact to the Company’s results of operations for 2021 will also depend on economic impact due to the pandemic and if any future resurgence of the virus in China, which are beyond the Company’s control. There is no guarantee that the Company’s revenues will grow or remain at a similar level year over year in the remaining of 2021 and beyond.

On September 1, 2021, Shanghai Mengyun Quanyou Vision Technology Co., Ltd was dissolved.

The Company performed a test on the restricted net assets of consolidated subsidiary in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X Rule 4-08 (3), “General Notes to Financial Statements” and concluded that it was applicable for the Company to disclose the financial statements for the parent company.

The subsidiary did not pay any dividends to the Company for the periods presented. For the purpose of presenting parent only financial information, the Company records its investment in its subsidiary under the equity method of accounting. Such investment is presented on the separate condensed balance sheets of the Company as “Investment in subsidiary” and the income of the subsidiary is presented as “share of income of subsidiary”. Certain information and footnote disclosures generally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed and omitted.

The Company did not have significant capital and other commitments, long-term obligations, or guarantees as of December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2021.

UNAUDITED PARENT COMPANY STATEMENTS OF INCOME AND COMPREHENSIVE (LOSS) INCOME

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of MC Hologram Inc. and Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.

As of December 31, 2020, there are thirteen subsidiaries under the consolidation of the Shanghai Mengyun.

On July 1, 2020, Shenzhen Mengyun acquired Shenzhen Bowei BroadVision Technology Co., Ltd. (“Shenzhen Bowei”), Shenzhen Bowei established wholly owned subsidiaries Horgos BroadVision Technology Co., Ltd. (“Horgos Bowei”) and Broadvision Intelligence (Hong Kong), Ltd. (“Broadvision HK”) in November 2020. Shenzhen Bowei and subsidiaries are mainly engaged in holographic printed circuit board assembly (“PCBA”) solutions.

On October 1, 2020, Shenzhen Mengyun acquired Shenzhen Tianyuemeng Technology Co., Ltd. (“Shenzhen Tianyuemeng”). Shenzhen Tianyuemeng established Horgos Tianyuemeng Technology Co., Ltd. (“Horgos Tianyuemeng”) in October 2020. Shenzhen Tianyuemeng and subsidiary engaged in holographic advertising services.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the activities of MC and each of the following entities as of December 31, 2020:

In assessing the Company’s liquidity, the Company monitors and analyzes its cash on-hand and its operating and capital expenditure commitments. The Company’s liquidity needs are to meet its working capital requirements, operating expenses and capital expenditure obligations. Cash flow from operations, advance from shareholders, and proceeds from third party loan have been utilized to finance the working capital requirements of the Company. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had cash of RMB 30.7 million (USD 4.7 million). The Company’s working capital was approximately RMB 17.0 million (USD 2.6 million) as of December 31, 2020. The Company believes its revenues and operations will continue to grow and the current working capital is sufficient to support its operations and debt obligations as they become due one year through report date.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances between the Company and its subsidiaries are eliminated upon consolidation.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements include the useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill, allowance for doubtful accounts, revenue recognition, inventory reserve, purchase price allocation for business combination, uncertain tax position, and deferred taxes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The functional currency of the Company, Menyun HK and Mcloudvr HK is in US dollars and the functional currency of the Company’s other subsidiaries are Renminbi (“RMB”), as determined based on the criteria of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 830 “Foreign Currency Matters”. The reporting currency of the Company is also the RMB.

In the consolidated financial statements, the financial information of the Company and other entities located outside of the PRC has been translated into RMB. Assets and liabilities of the Company translated from their respective functional currencies to the reporting currency at the exchange rates at the balance sheet dates, equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates and revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates in effect during the reporting period. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustment are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss).

The balance sheet amounts, with the exception of shareholders’ equity for MC and Mcloudvr HK at December 31, 2019 and 2020 were translated at RMB 1.00 to USD 0.1431 and to USD 0.1533, respectively. The average translation rates applied to statement of income accounts for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020 were RMB 1.00 and to USD 0.1448, and USD 0.1449, respectively. The shareholders’ equity accounts were stated at their historical rate. Cash flows are also translated at average translation rates for the periods, therefore, amounts reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheet.

Translations of balances in the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of income and consolidated statements of cash flows from RMB into USD as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020 are solely for the convenience of the reader and were calculated at the rate of RMB 1.00 to USD 0.1533, representing the mid-point reference rate set by Peoples’ Bank of China on December 31, 2020. No representation is made that the RMB amounts represent or could have been, or could be, converted, realized or settled into USD at that rate, or at any other rate.

Accounts receivable include trade accounts due from customers. Accounts are considered overdue after 90 days. Management reviews its receivables on a regular basis to determine if the bad debt allowance is adequate, and provides an allowance when necessary. The allowance is based on management’s best estimates of specific losses on individual customer exposures, as well as the historical trends of collections. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the likelihood of collection is not probable. As of December 31, 2019 and 2020, the Company has RMB 715,138 and RMB 1,366,117(USD 209,456) of an allowance for doubtful accounts for accounts receivable, respectively.

Inventories are comprised of raw material and finish goods are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the weighted average method. Cost of finished goods comprise direct material and outsourced assembling costs. Management reviews inventories for obsolescence and cost in excess of net realizable value periodically when appropriate and records a reserve against the inventory when the carrying value exceeds net realizable value. As of December 31, 2019, and 2020 and, the Company has an allowance of nil and RMB 88,412 (USD 13,555), respectively.

Prepayments and other current assets are mainly payments made to vendors or service providers for purchasing goods or services that have not been received or provided, deposits for rent and utilities and employee advances. This amount is refundable and bears no interest. Prepayment and deposit are classified as either current or non-current based on the terms of the respective agreements. These advances are unsecured and are reviewed periodically to determine whether their carrying value has become impaired. As of December 31, 2019, and 2020, the Company made nil and RMB 8,306 (USD 1,273) allowance for noncurrent prepayments and deposits, respectively.

Long-lived assets, including property and equipment and intangible assets with finite lives are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (such as a significant adverse change to market conditions that will impact the future use of the assets) indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company assesses the recoverability of the assets based on the undiscounted future cash flows the assets are expected to generate and recognize an impairment loss when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset plus net proceeds expected from disposition of the asset, if any, are less than the carrying value of the asset. If an impairment is identified, the Company would reduce the carrying amount of the asset to its estimated fair value based on a discounted cash flows approach or, when available and appropriate, to comparable market values. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, no impairment of long-lived assets was recognized.

The Company’s investments in unconsolidated entities consist of equity investments without readily determinable fair value.

An impairment charge is recorded if the carrying amount of the investment exceeds its fair value and this condition is determined to be other-than temporary. As of December 31, 2019 and 2020, the Company has equity investments without readily determinable fair value for two entities with 4.44% and 19.90% with investment amount RMB 500,000 (USD 76,661) and RMB 2,000,000 (USD 306,645), respectively. The Company recorded a full impairment charge against its investments in 2018.
