Target Group is currently under restructuring. Upon the completion of the restructuring, Shanghai Gaohan Xinhao Culture Media Company Limited ("Gaohan Xinhao") will become the only operating company of the Target Group and a wholly-owned foreign enterprise. Gaohan Xinhao is principally engaged in agency business for licensing IP rights. Through sub-licensing the IP rights to customers, incomes are generated through fixed and fee-sharing-basis as well as from advertising and product sales.

By directly negotiating with the artists for exclusive licensing of their copyrights, Gaohan Xinhao has been able to secure unique artworks in China or around the world that may have commercial values. Leverage on collaborative product and service development, marketing and branding management, Gaohan Xinhan provides a channel for artists to commercialize and monetize their IP. Currently Gaohan Xinhao acquired the licensed IP rights of Le Petite Chef for a period of five years in the Greater China region. Since its first launch in China, Le Petite Chef has drawn considerable attention from the high-end F&B industry, restaurateurs and consumers in major cities. Gaohan Xinhao's own creative project, Little Ice Cream Parlor has also generated overwhelming feedbacks from consumers in Shanghai.

Mr. Ai Kuiyu, Executive Director of DX.com Holdings Limited commented, "The acquisition represents the first step of the Group's business transformation. It is also a foundation for the Group to build an IP integration and commercialization platform. From basic living products to cultural products and services, Chinese is experiencing huge consumption upgrade, which is driving the demand for high-quality IP products. To capture such opportunity, we are actively looking for collaboration with artists around the globe to build an integration and commercialization platform. With the support of our strong network and rich resources available both online and offline in the China market, such platform will assist IP owners to maximize the value of their ideas and pursue greater development."

Mr. Ai continued, "Le Petite Chef has established outstanding reputation in the China. With such a good start, the Group is planning to promote this unique idea to more cities in the Greater China Region. In addition, we will continue to bringing one-of-a-kind experiences to consumers by attracting more talents around the world to create and develop new products for this series. Looking into the future, by enriching our IP portfolio and further consolidate our global IP integration and commercialization platform, we are ready to capture the opportunities from the internet and pan-entertainment industries."
