All shares of Common Stock shall have one vote per share. Information about the stockholdings of our directors, executive officers and significant stockholders is contained in the section of this proxy statement entitled "Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management" beginning on page 13 of this proxy statement.

What is the proxy card?

The card enables you to appoint Renmei Ouyang ("Ms. Ouyang") and Tianshi (Stanley) Yang ("Mr. Yang") as your representatives at this Meeting. By completing and returning the proxy card, you are authorizing these persons to vote for your shares at this Meeting in accordance with your instructions on the proxy card. This way, your shares will be voted whether or not you attend this Meeting. Even if you plan to attend this Meeting, it is strongly recommended to complete and return your proxy card before this Meeting date just in case your plans change. If a proposal comes up for vote at this Meeting that is not on the proxy card, the proxies will vote your shares, under your proxy, according to their best judgment.

How does the Board recommend that I vote?

Our Board unanimously recommends that stockholders vote "FOR" each of the Director Nominees listed in proposal No. 1 and "FOR" each of proposals No.2, No. 3 and No. 4.

What is the difference between holding shares as a stockholder of record and as a beneficial owner?

Certain of our stockholders hold their shares in an account at a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee holders, rather than holding share certificates in their own name. As summarized below, there are some distinctions between shares held of record and those owned beneficially.

Stockholder of Record/Registered Stockholders

If, on the Record Date, your shares were registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, VStock Transfer, LLC, you are a "stockholder of record" who may vote at the Meeting, and we are sending these proxy materials directly to you. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to direct the voting of your shares by returning the enclosed proxy card to us or to vote in person at the Meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend the Meeting, please complete, date and sign the enclosed proxy card to ensure that your vote is counted.

Beneficial Owner

If, on the Record Date, your shares were held in an account at a brokerage firm or at a bank or other nominee holders, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held "in street name," and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by your broker or nominee who is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Meeting. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker on how to vote your shares and to attend the Meeting. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote these shares in person at the Meeting unless you receive a valid proxy from your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee holders. To obtain a valid proxy, you must make a special request of your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee holder. If you do not make this request, you can still vote by using the voting instruction card enclosed with this proxy statement; however, you will not be able to vote in person at the Meeting.

How do I vote?

If you were a stockholder of record of the Company's Common Stock on the Record Date, you may vote in person at the Meeting or by submitting a proxy. Each share of Common Stock that you own in your name entitles you to one vote, in each case, on the applicable proposals.

•according to the best judgment of the proxies if a proposal comes up for a vote at this Meeting that is not on the proxy card.

•FOR each nominee for director;

•FOR the selection of AA as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December31, 2022;

•FOR the approval and the adoption of the Charter Amendment to effect the Reverse Split; and

Then return the proxy card in the pre-addressed, postage-paid envelope provided herewith as soon as possible so your shares may be represented at the Meeting.

•sending a written notice to the Secretary of the Company at the Company's executive offices stating that you would like to revoke your proxy of a particular date;

•signing another proxy card with a later date and returning it to the Secretary before the polls close at this Meeting; or

•attending this Meeting and voting in person.

What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy card?

You may have multiple accounts at the transfer agent and/or with brokerage firms. Please sign and return all proxy cards to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

What happens if I do not indicate how to vote my proxy?

Signed and dated proxies received by the Company without an indication of how the stockholder desires to vote on a proposal will be voted in favor of each director and proposal presented to the stockholders.

We currently have a 2019 equity incentive plan pursuant to which 1,290,000shares were authorized. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, no shares of common stock had been granted to our officers and directors under the plan.

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End

None.

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities, to file reports of ownership on Forms3, 4 and 5 with the SEC. These persons are required to furnish us with copies of all Forms3, 4 and 5 they file. Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms we have received and written representations from certain reporting persons that they filed all required reports, we believe that all of our executive officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders complied on a timely basis with all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to them with respect to transactions during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, with the exception of the following: a Form 3 was filed late for Xiangjun Wang required.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management

The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of the Record Date by: (1) each person who is known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of our common stock, (2) each named executive officers as of December 31, 2021, (3) each director and (4) all current executive officers and directors as a group.

We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC. These rules generally attribute beneficial ownership of securities to persons who possess sole or shared voting power or investment power with respect to those securities. The person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any security of which that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Unless otherwise indicated, the person identified in this table has sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares shown as beneficially owned by him, subject to applicable community property laws.

____________

*Represents beneficial ownership of less than 1%.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

None.

Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons

Our Audit Committee consisting of independent directors, is charged with reviewing and approving all agreements and transactions with related parties.

PROPOSAL NO. 2 - RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee has selected Audit Alliance LLP to serve as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022 and has further directed that management submit the selection of the independent registered public accounting firm for ratification by the stockholders at the Meeting. AA has been engaged as our independent registered public accounting firm since December 23, 2021 and has audited the Company's financial statement for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

Stockholder ratification of the selection of AA as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm is not required by Delaware law, the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation, or the Company's amended and restated bylaws. However, the Audit Committee is submitting the selection of AA to the stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the stockholders fail to ratify the selection, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether to retain that firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if the Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

On December 22, 2021, the Board approved the dismissal of BF Borgers CPA PC ("BFB") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm and approved the appointment of AA to audit the Company's consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and any subsequent interim period through the date of dismissal, December 23, 2021, (i) there were no "disagreements" (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) between the Company and BFB on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to BFB's satisfaction, would have caused BFB to make reference in connection with BFB's opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement; and (ii) except for the matter relating to internal control over financial reporting, there were no "reportable events" as the term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

During the Company's fiscal years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has consulted with AA regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that AA concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue, (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, or (iii) any reportable event within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

Representatives of AA are not expected to attend the Meeting in person and therefore are not expected to be available to respond to any questions. As a result, representatives of AA will not make a statement at the Meeting.

Principal Accountant Fees and Services

The following table shows the fees that were billed for audit and other services by AA for in 2021 and BFB in 2020, which were approved in compliance with the Audit Committee's pre-approval policies and procedures described below.

____________

(1)Audit Fees - This category includes the audit of our annual financial statements, review of financial statements included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and services that are normally provided by independent auditors in connection with the engagement for fiscal years. This category also includes advice on audit and accounting matters that arose during, or as a result of, the audit or the review of interim financial statements.

(2)Audit-Related Fees - This category consists of assurance and related services by our independent auditors that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements and are not reported above under "Audit Fees."

(3)Tax Fees - This category consists of professional services rendered by our independent auditors for tax compliance and tax advice. The services for the fees disclosed under this category include tax return preparation and technical tax advice.

(4)All Other Fees - This category consists of fees for other miscellaneous items.

Policies and Procedures Relating to Approval of Services by our Independent Registered Public Accountants

The Audit Committee is solely responsible for the approval in advance of all audit and permitted non-audit services to be provided by our independent registered public accounting firms (including the fees and other terms thereof), subject to the de minimus exceptions for non-audit services provided by Section 10A(i)(1)(B) of the Exchange Act, which services are subsequently approved by the Audit Committee prior to the completion of the audit. None of the fees listed above are for services rendered pursuant to such de minimus exceptions.

The Audit Committee of our Board of Directors has established its pre-approval policies and procedures, pursuant to which the Audit Committee approved the foregoing audit, tax and non-audit services provided by AA in 2022. Consistent with the Audit Committee's responsibility for engaging our independent auditors, all audit and permitted non-audit services require pre-approval by the Audit Committee. The full Audit Committee approves proposed services and fee estimates for these services. One or more independent directors serving on the Audit Committee may be delegated by the full Audit Committee to pre-approve any audit and non-audit services. Any such delegation shall be presented to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. Pursuant to these procedures, the Audit Committee approved the foregoing audit services provided by AA.

Vote Required

Proposal No. 2 (the ratification of the appointment by the Audit Committee of AA to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022) will be approved if a majority of the total votes are properly cast in person or by proxy at the Meeting by the holders of common stock vote "FOR" the proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the result of the vote.

Unless marked to the contrary, the shares represented by the enclosed proxy card will be voted "FOR" ratification of the appointment of AA as the independent registered public accountants of the Company.

Recommendation of the Board

The Board unanimously recommends that you vote all of your shares "FOR" the ratification of AA as independent registered public accountants as described in this Proposal No. 2.

Audit Committee Report

The primary purpose of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board in fulfilling its responsibility to oversee our financial reporting activities. The Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing with both our independent registered public accounting firm and management, our accounting and reporting principles, policies and practices, as well as our accounting, financial and operating controls and staff. The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed our audited financial statements with management, and has discussed with our independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No.61, as amended (Codification of Statements on Auditing Standards, AU 380), as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the "PCAOB" ) in Rule 3200T. Additionally, the Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from our independent registered public accounting firm, as required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB, and has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the independent registered public accounting firm's independence. Based upon such review and discussion, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the last fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 for filing with the SEC.

The information contained in this proxy statement with respect to the Audit Committee's report above and the independence of the members of the Audit Committee shall not be deemed to be "soliciting material" or to be "filed" with the SEC, nor shall such information be incorporated by reference into any future filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or the Exchange Act, except to the extent that the Company specifically incorporates it by reference in such filing.

PROPOSAL NO. 3 - APPROVAL AND ADOPTION OF THE CHARTER AMENDMENT TO EFFECT THE REVERSE SPLIT

General

The Board has unanimously approved, and recommended that our stockholders approve, the Charter Amendment, in substantially the form attached hereto as Appendix A, to effect a reverse stock split of our Common Stock at a ratio of one-for-five to one-for-ten immediately following the Reverse Split at any time prior to August 12, 2022, with the final decision of whether to proceed with Reverse Split and the exact ratio to be set at a whole number within this range, as determined by our Board in its sole discretion. If the stockholders approve the Reverse Split, and the Board decides to implement it, the Reverse Split will become effective upon the filing of the Charter Amendment with the Delaware Secretary of State.

The Reverse Split will be realized simultaneously for all our Common Stock. The Reverse Split will affect all holders of Common Stock uniformly and no stockholder's interest in the Company will be diluted as each stockholder will hold the same percentage of common stock outstanding immediately following the Reverse Split as that stockholder held immediately prior to the Reverse Split, except for immaterial adjustments that may result from the treatment of fractional shares as described below. The Certificate of Amendment will not reduce the number of authorized shares of stock (which will remain at 650,000,000, including 600,000,000shares of common stock and 50,000,000shares of preferred stock) and will not change the par value of the stock (which will remain at $0.001 per share).

Reasons for the Stock Split

Maintain Nasdaq Listing

On the date of the mailing of this Proxy Statement, our Common Stock was listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "GLG". The continued listing requirements of Nasdaq, among other things, require that our Common Stock must maintain a closing bid price in excess of $1.00 per share. We have in the past, and may in the future, be unable to comply with certain of the listing standards that we are required to meet to maintain the listing of our common shares on Nasdaq.

On September 1, 2021, we received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq (the "Staff") notifying us that based upon the closing bid price for the last 30 consecutive business days, we no longer met the minimum bid price of $1 per share, while the Listing Rules provide us a compliance period of 180 calendar days in which to regain compliance.

On February 18, 2022, the Company sent a letter to the Staff submitting the Company's plan to obtain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement and to request an extension for an additional 180 calendar days from the end of the first compliance period.

On March 1, 2022, we received a letter from the Staff notifying that the Staff had agreed to the Company's request for an additional 180 calendar days, or until August 29, 2022, to regain compliance.

If our Common Stock is delisted from Nasdaq, the Board believes that the trading market for our Common Stock could become significantly less liquid, which could reduce the trading price of our Common Stock and increase the transaction costs of trading in shares of our Common Stock.

If the Charter Amendment is effected, it would cause a decrease in the total number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding and increase the market price of our Common Stock. The Board intends to effect the Reverse Split only if it believes that a decrease in the number of shares outstanding is in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders and is likely to improve the trading price of our Common Stock and improve the likelihood that we will be allowed to maintain our listing on Nasdaq. Accordingly, our Board approved the Reverse Split as being in the best interests of the Company.

Risks Associated with the Reverse Split

The Reverse Split May Not Increase the Price of our Common Stock over the Long-Term. As noted above, the principal purpose of the Reverse Split is to increase the trading price of our Common Stock to meet the minimum stock price standards of Nasdaq. However, the effect of the Reverse Split on the market price of our Common Stock

cannot be predicted with any certainty, and we cannot assure you that the Reverse Split will accomplish this objective for any meaningful period of time, or at all. While we expect that the reduction in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock will proportionally increase the market price of our Common Stock, we cannot assure you that the Reverse Split will increase the market price of our Common Stock by a multiple of the Reverse Split ratio, or result in any permanent or sustained increase in the market price of our Common Stock. The market price of our Common Stock may be affected by other factors which may be unrelated to the number of shares outstanding, including the Company's business and financial performance, general market conditions, and prospects for future success.

The Reverse Split May Decrease the Liquidity of our Common Stock.The Board believes that the Reverse Split may result in an increase in the market price of our Common Stock, which could lead to increased interest in our Common Stock and possibly promote greater liquidity for our stockholders. However, the Reverse Split will also reduce the total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, which may lead to reduced trading and a smaller number of market makers for our Common Stock, particularly if the price per share of our Common Stock does not increase as a result of the Reverse Split.

The Reverse Split May Result in Some Stockholders Owning "Odd Lots" That May Be More Difficult to Sell or Require Greater Transaction Costs per Share to Sell.If the Reverse Split is implemented, it will increase the number of stockholders who own "odd lots" of less than 100shares of Common Stock. A purchase or sale of less than 100shares of Common Stock (an "odd lot" transaction) may result in incrementally higher trading costs through certain brokers, particularly "full service" brokers. Therefore, those stockholders who own fewer than 100shares of Common Stock following the Reverse Stock Split may be required to pay higher transaction costs if they sell their Common Stock.

The Reverse Split May Lead to a Decrease in our Overall Market Capitalization.The Reverse Split may be viewed negatively by the market and, consequently, could lead to a decrease in our overall market capitalization. If the per share market price of our Common Stock does not increase in proportion to the Reverse Split ratio, or following such increase does not maintain or exceed such price, then the value of our Company, as measured by our market capitalization, will be reduced. Additionally, any reduction in our market capitalization may be magnified as a result of the smaller number of total shares of Common Stock outstanding following the Reverse Split.

Potential Consequences if the Reverse Split Proposal is Not Approved

If the Reverse Split proposal is not approved by our stockholders, our Board will not have the authority to effect the Charter Amendment to, among other things, facilitate the continued listing of our Common Stock on Nasdaq by increasing the per share trading price of our Common Stock to help ensure a share price high enough to satisfy the $1.00 per share minimum bid price requirement. Any inability of our Board to effect the Reverse Split could expose us to delisting from Nasdaq.

Determination of the Reverse Split Ratio

The Board believes that stockholder approval of a range of potential Reverse Split ratios is in the best interests of our Company and stockholders because it is not possible to predict market conditions at the time the Reverse Split would be implemented. We believe that a range of Reverse Split ratios provides us with the most flexibility to achieve the desired results of the Reverse Stock Split. The Reverse Split ratio to be selected by our Board will be not more than one-for-ten.

The selection of the specific Reverse Split ratio will be based on several factors, including, among other things:

•our ability to maintain the listing of our Common Stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market;

•the per share price of our Common Stock immediately prior to the Reverse Split;

•the expected stability of the per share price of our Common Stock following the Reverse Split;

•the likelihood that the Reverse Split will result in increased marketability and liquidity of our Common Stock;

•prevailing market conditions;

•general economic conditions in our industry; and

•our market capitalization before and after the Reverse Stock Split.

We believe that granting our Board the authority to set the ratio for the Reverse Split is essential because it allows us to take these factors into consideration and to react to changing market conditions. If the Board chooses to implement the Reverse Split, the Company will make a public announcement regarding the determination of the Reverse Split ratio.

Board Discretion to Effect the Reverse Split

If the Reverse Split proposal is approved by our stockholders, the Board will have the discretion to implement the Reverse Split or to not effect the Reverse Split at all. The Board currently intends to effect the Reverse Split. If the trading price of our Common Stock increases without effecting the Reverse Split, the Reverse Split may not be necessary. Following the Reverse Split, if implemented, there can be no assurance that the market price of our Common Stock will rise in proportion to the reduction in the number of outstanding shares resulting from the Reverse Split or that the market price of the post-split Common Stock can be maintained above $1.00. There also can be no assurance that our Common Stock will not be delisted from Nasdaq for other reasons

Beneficial Holders of Common Stock

Upon the implementation of the Reverse Split, we intend to treat shares held by stockholders through a bank, broker, custodian or other nominee in the same manner as registered stockholders whose shares are registered in their names. Banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees will be instructed to affect the Reverse Split for their beneficial holders holding our common stock in street name. However, these banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees may have different procedures than registered stockholders for processing the Reverse Split. Stockholders who hold shares of our common stock with a bank, broker, custodian or other nominees and who have any questions in this regard are encouraged to contact their banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees.

Registered "Book-Entry" Holders of Common Stock

Certain of our registered holders of common stock may hold some or all of their shares electronically in book-entry form with the transfer agent. These stockholders do not have stock certificates evidencing their ownership of the common stock. They are, however, provided with a statement reflecting the number of shares registered in their accounts. Stockholders who hold shares electronically in book-entry form with the transfer agent will not need to take action (the exchange will be automatic) to receive whole shares of post-Reverse Split common stock, subject to adjustment for treatment of fractional shares.

Holders of Certificated Shares of Common Stock

Stockholders holding shares of our common stock in certificated form will be sent a transmittal letter by our transfer agent after the Stock Split. The letter of transmittal will contain instructions on how a stockholder should surrender his, her or its certificate(s) representing shares of our common stock (the "Old Certificates") to the transfer agent in exchange for certificates representing the appropriate number of whole shares of post-Reverse Split common stock (the "New Certificates"). No New Certificates will be issued to a stockholder until such stockholder has surrendered all Old Certificates, together with a properly completed and executed letter of transmittal, to the transfer agent. No stockholder will be required to pay a transfer or other fee to exchange his, her or its Old Certificates. Stockholders will then receive a New Certificate(s) representing the number of whole shares of common stock that they are entitled as a result of the Reverse Split, subject to the treatment of fractional shares described below. Until surrendered, we will deem outstanding Old Certificates held by stockholders to be canceled and only to represent the number of whole shares of post-Reverse Split common stock to which these stockholders are entitled, subject to the treatment of fractional shares. Any Old Certificates submitted for exchange, whether because of a sale, transfer or other disposition of stock, will automatically be exchanged for New Certificates. If an Old Certificate has a restrictive legend on the back of the Old Certificate(s), the New Certificate will be issued with the same restrictive legends that are on the back of the Old Certificate(s).

STOCKHOLDERS SHOULD NOT DESTROY ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE(S) AND SHOULD NOT SUBMIT ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE(S) UNTIL REQUESTED TO DO SO.

No Fractional Shares

No fractional shares of common stock will be issued in connection with the Reverse Split. In lieu of issuing fractional shares, we intend to round fractional shares up to the next whole share.

Accounting Matters

The par value of the shares of our common stock is not changing as a result of the implementation of the Reverse Split. As a result, as of the effective time of the Reverse Split, the stated capital attributable to common stock and the additional paid-in capital account on our balance sheet will not change due to the Reverse Split. Reported per share net income or loss will be higher because there will be fewer shares of common stock outstanding.

Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Reverse Split

The following summary describes material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Split to holders of our common stock.

Unless otherwise specifically indicated herein, this summary addresses the tax consequences only to a beneficial owner of our common stock that is a citizen or individual resident of the United States, a corporation organized in or under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia or otherwise subject to U.S. federal income taxation on a net income basis in respect of our common stock (a "U.S. holder"). A trust may also be a U.S. holder if (1) a U.S. court is able to exercise primary supervision over administration of such trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (2) it has a valid election in place to be treated as a U.S. person. An estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source may also be a U.S. holder. This summary does not address all of the tax consequences that may be relevant to any particular investor, including tax considerations that arise from rules of general application to all taxpayers or to certain classes of taxpayers or that are generally assumed to be known by investors. This summary also does not address the tax consequences to (i) persons that may be subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax law, such as banks, insurance companies, thrift institutions, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, tax-exempt organizations, U.S. expatriates, persons subject to the alternative minimum tax, traders in securities that elect to mark to market and dealers in securities or currencies, (ii) persons that hold our common stock as part of a position in a "straddle" or as part of a "hedging," "conversion" or other integrated investment transaction for federal income tax purposes, or (iii) persons that do not hold our common stock as "capital assets" (generally, property held for investment).

If a partnership (or other entity classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is the beneficial owner of our common stock, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partnerships that hold our common stock, and partners in such partnerships, should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split.

This summary is based on the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, U.S. Treasury regulations, administrative rulings and judicial authority, all as in effect as of the date of this proxy statement. Subsequent developments in U.S. federal income tax law, including changes in law or differing interpretations, which may be applied retroactively, could have a material effect on the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Split.

PLEASE CONSULT YOUR OWN TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, AND FOREIGN INCOME AND OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE REVERSE SPLIT IN YOUR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE AND THE LAWS OF ANY OTHER TAXING JURISDICTION.

U.S. Holders

The Reverse Split should be treated as a recapitalization for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Therefore, a stockholder generally will not recognize gain or loss on the Reverse Split, except to the extent of cash, if any, received in lieu of a fractional share interest in the post-Reverse Split shares. The aggregate tax basis of the post-split shares received will be equal to the aggregate tax basis of the pre-split shares exchanged therefore (excluding any portion of

the holder's basis allocated to fractional shares), and the holding period of the post-split shares received will include the holding period of the pre-split shares exchanged. A holder of the pre-split shares who receives cash will generally recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the portion of the tax basis of the pre-split shares allocated to the fractional share interest and the cash received. Such gain or loss will be a capital gain or loss and will be short term if the pre-split shares were held for one year or less and long term if held more than one year. No gain or loss will be recognized by us as a result of the Reverse Split.

No Appraisal Rights

Under the DGCL and our charter documents, holders of our common stock will not be entitled to dissenter's rights or appraisal rights with respect to the Reverse Split.

Deadline for Submission of Stockholder Proposals for 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders

For any proposal to be considered for inclusion in our proxy statement and form of proxy for submission to the stockholders at our 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, it must be submitted in writing and comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act. Such proposals must be received by the Company at its offices at 25th Floor, Block C, Tairan Building, No. 31 Tairan 8th Road, Futian District, Shenzhen, Guangdong, PRC 518000, Attention: Secretary. Notice of a nomination or proposal must be delivered to us not less than 90 days and not more than 120 days prior to the date for the 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders; provided, however, that in the event that the 2022 annual meeting is called for a date that is not within 45 days before or after the anniversary of the 2021 annual meeting, notice by the stockholders to be timely must be so received no earlier than the opening of business on the 120th day before the 2021 annual meeting and not later than the later of (x) the close of business on the 90th day before the 2022 annual meeting or (y) the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the 2022 annual meeting is first made by the Company.

If we are not notified of a stockholder proposal a reasonable time prior to the time we send our proxy statement for our 2022 annual meeting, then our Board will have discretionary authority to vote on the stockholder proposal, even though the stockholder proposal is not discussed in the proxy statement. In order to curtail any controversy as to the date on which a stockholder proposal was received by us, it is suggested that stockholder proposals be submitted by certified mail, return receipt requested, and be addressed to TD Holdings, Inc., 25th Floor, Block C, Tairan Building, No. 31 Tairan 8th Road, Futian District, Shenzhen, Guangdong, PRC 518000, Attention: Secretary. Notwithstanding, the foregoing shall not affect any rights of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in our proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act nor grant any stockholder a right to have any nominee included in our proxy statement.

Proxy Solicitation

The solicitation of proxies is made on behalf of the Board and we will bear the cost of soliciting proxies. The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock, VStock Transfer, LLC, as a part of its regular services and for no additional compensation other than reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses, has been engaged to assist in the proxy solicitation. Proxies may be solicited through the mail and through telephonic or telegraphic communications to, or by meetings with, stockholders or their representatives by our directors, officers and other employees who will receive no additional compensation therefor. We may also retain a proxy solicitation firm to assist us in obtaining proxies by mail, facsimile or email from record and beneficial holders of shares for the Meeting. If we retain a proxy solicitation firm, we expect to pay such firm reasonable and customary compensation for its services, including out-of-pocket expenses.

We request persons such as brokers, nominees and fiduciaries holding stock in their names for others, or holding stock for others who have the right to give voting instructions, to forward proxy material to their principals and to request authority for the execution of the proxy. We will reimburse such persons for their reasonable expenses.

Delivery of Proxy Materials to Households

Only one copy of this proxy statement and one copy of our Annual Report are being delivered to multiple registered stockholders who share an address unless we have received contrary instructions from one or more of the stockholders. A separate form of proxy and a separate notice of the Meeting are being included for each account at the shared address. Registered stockholders who share an address and would like to receive a separate copy of our Annual Report and/or a separate copy of this proxy statement, or have questions regarding the householding process, may contact the Company's transfer agent: VStock Transfer, LLC, by calling (212) 828-8436, or by forwarding a written request addressed to VStock Transfer, LLC, 18 Lafayette Place, Woodmere, New York 11598. Promptly upon request, a separate copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K and/or a separate copy of this proxy statement will be sent. By contacting VStock Transfer, LLC, registered stockholders sharing an address can also (i) notify the Company that the registered stockholders wish to receive separate annual reports to stockholders, proxy statements and/or Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, as applicable, in the future or (ii) request delivery of a single copy of annual reports to stockholders and proxy statements in the future if registered stockholders at the shared address are receiving multiple copies.

Many brokers, brokerage firms, broker/dealers, banks and other holders of record have also instituted "householding" (delivery of one copy of materials to multiple stockholders who share an address). If your family has one or more "street name" accounts under which you beneficially own shares of our common stock, you may have received householding information from your broker, brokerage firm, broker/dealer, bank or other nominees in the past. Please contact the holder of record directly if you have questions, require additional copies of this proxy statement or our Annual Report or wish to revoke your decision to household and thereby receive multiple copies. You should also contact the holder of record if you wish to institute householding.
