Upon completion of the Merger on December 23, 2022, shareholders of BJY exchanged all of the issued and outstanding shares of BJY immediately prior to the Merger for newly issued shares of Fuwei in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, based on a conversation ratio that each share of BJY received 0.7807324 ordinary shares of Fuwei, and BJY became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fuwei. In addition, the Issuer changed its name from “Fuwei Films (Holdings) Co., Ltd.” to “Baijiayun Group Ltd” and its ticker from “FFHL” to “RTC” upon the completion of the Merger.

Each share of BJY issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger and held by Mr. Yi Ma through Nuan Nuan Ltd was canceled in exchange for the right to receive 0.7807324 Class B ordinary shares of the Issuer. Upon the completion of the Merger, Mr. Yi Ma beneficially owned 8,641,655 Class B ordinary shares of the Issuer through Nuan Nuan Ltd.

In May 2024, the Issuer effected a share consolidation, whereby every five (5) issued and unissued Class A ordinary shares of the Issuer were consolidated into one (1) Class A ordinary share, and every five (5) issued and unissued Class B ordinary shares of the Issuer were consolidated into one (1) Class B ordinary share. Upon completion of the share consolidation, Mr. Yi Ma beneficially owned 1,181,819 Class A ordinary shares and 546,513 Class B ordinary shares of the Issuer through Nuan Nuan Ltd.
