EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) amends the Statement on Schedule 13D initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 24, 2015 (the “Schedule 13D”) by Jun Zhu and Incsight Limited (the “Reporting Persons,” and each, a “Reporting Person”) with respect to the ordinary shares, par value US$0.01 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), of The9 Limited (the “Issuer”). Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Schedule 13D.

This Amendment is made solely (i) to correct the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares that Jun Zhu has the right to acquire upon exercise of options within 60 days after November 24, 2015 as reported on the Schedule 13D from 5,777,778 Ordinary Shares to 4,650,187 Ordinary Shares, and (ii) to correct the title of the Issuer’s share incentive plan under Item 3 of the Schedule 13D from Third Amended and Restated Stock Option Plan 2004 to Fifth Amended and Restated Stock Option Plan 2004.

This Amendment is made solely to correct the foregoing computational and typographical errors. Except as provided herein, no new or revised information, transactions or holdings are being reported in this Amendment, and all other information in the Schedule 13D remains the same.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is amended and restated in its entirety as follows.

On November 17, 2015, as approved and authorized by the Board of Directors of the Issuer and pursuant to the Fifth Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Option Plan, the Issuer granted Mr. Zhu, among other optionees, an option to purchase in aggregate 5,000,000 Ordinary Shares at an exercise price of US$1.53 per Ordinary Share, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in a stock option agreement, dated November 17, 2015, between the Issuer and Mr. Zhu. Pursuant to the stock option agreement, once the per ADS market price of the Issuer equals or exceeds US$2.60, US$5.20 and US$7.80, respectively, a portion of the option to purchase 2,777,778, 1,666,667 and 555,555 Ordinary Shares will vest.

On November 24, 2015, the closing price of the ADSs as quoted by NASDAQ exceeded US$2.60 per ADS, and as a result, the option to purchase 2,777,778 Ordinary Shares vested on the same date.
