This Amendment No. 6 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 6”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 30, 2017 (as amended to date, the “Schedule 13D”) relating to the Class A ordinary shares, par value US$0.0005 per share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”), and American depositary shares, each representing one Class A Ordinary Share (“ADSs”), of Sea Limited, a limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of Cayman Islands (the “Issuer”). Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meaning set forth in the Schedule 13D.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by replacing the last paragraph with the following:

On February 14, 2022, at the AGM of the Issuer, the shareholders approved, by a special resolution, the Substitution of the Existing Articles by the New Articles. The Class B Conversion and the Proxy Termination Agreement became effective immediately upon effectiveness of the Substitution. As a result, Tencent Limited and Tencent Growthfund hold only Class A Ordinary Shares and have sole voting power and disposition power over the Class A Ordinary Shares they each hold respectively; and Tencent Holdings beneficially owns and has sole voting power and disposition power over all the Class A Ordinary Shares held by Tencent Limited, Tencent Growthfund and Huang River.

Other than as set forth in the Schedule 13D, neither the Reporting Persons, nor to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any Related Persons have any plans or proposal which relate to, or would result in, any of the matters described in subsections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, although, depending on the factors discussed herein, the Reporting Persons, and any Related Persons, may change their purpose or formulate different plans or proposals with respect thereto at any time.
