BEIJING, July 12, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Uxin Limited (“Uxin” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: UXIN), the largest used car e-commerce platform in China, today announced that it has entered into convertible note purchase agreements with PacificBridge Asset Management (“PacificBridge”), pursuant to which Uxin will issue and sell convertible notes in an aggregate principal amount of US$50 million to investment funds managed by PacificBridge through a private placement. The private placement is subject to multiple closings with certain customary closing conditions and is expected to be fully completed in the second half of 2019.
The convertible notes will mature in 12 months or 15 months, bearing interest at the rates of 10% or 11% per annum from the issuance date, respectively, depending on the maturity date.

This new private placement will bolster our initiatives to optimize the online used car purchasing experience and better position us to extend our leadership in China’s used car e-commerce sector.
