WHAT IS THIS ABOUT: On April 29, 2022, Global Cord announced in a press release the Company had “entered into a series of Stock Purchase Agreements, each dated April 29, 2022 (the “SPAs” and, collectively, the “SPA”), between the Company and the holders of approximately 95% of the outstanding shares of common stock (the “CLK Shares”) of Cellenkos, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Cellenkos”) providing for the acquisition by the Company of such CLK Shares, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions set forth in the SPA (including the entry of employment agreements with Dr. Simrit Parmar and Jackie Leong of Cellenkos and two to five year lockup agreements in customary form) in exchange for an aggregate of approximately 65.7 million of the Company’s ordinary shares of US$0.0001 par value per share (the “Ordinary Shares”) and units of the holding company partnership described below equivalent to an aggregate of 36,112,267 Ordinary Shares on a fully-diluted basis.”

On this news, Global Cord’s stock price fell $0.98 per share, or 28.57%, to close at $2.45 per share on May 2, 2022, the next trading day.

Then, on May 9, 2022, during market hours, Global Cord announced a major investor in many of Global Cord’s Chinese subsidiaries, Blue Ocean Structure Investment Company Limited (“BVI”), “filed in the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands a notice of petition to wind up in respect of the issuer (the “Notice of Petition”). Among other things, the Notice of Petition primarily seeks an order that: (1) the issuer refrain from proceeding with a proposed transaction by which the issuer would acquire Cellenkos, Inc., as described in a Form 6-K filed by the Issuer on April 29, 2022 (the “Cellenkos Transaction”); (2) the issuer amend and restate its Memorandum and Articles of Association to eliminate the classification of the Board and to add shareholder protective provisions; and (3) the issuer convene an extraordinary general meeting to propose the removal of the current Board and the appointment of alternative directors proposed by [BVI].”

On this news, Global Cord’s stock price fell $0.22 per share, or 8.37%, to close at $2.41 per share on May 9, 2022.

WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually litigate securities class actions. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.
