Item 1. Security and Issuer
This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 1”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed on May 26, 2011 (the “Original Schedule 13D” and, together with this Amendment No. 1, the “Statement”). Unless specifically amended hereby, the disclosures set forth in the Statement shall remain unchanged. All capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 1 but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Original Schedule 13D.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
This Amendment No. 1 is not being made as a result of any particular acquisitions or dispositions of Ordinary Shares by the Reporting Persons.
The descriptions of the principal terms of the Proposal (as defined below) under Item 4 are incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
Item 4 is hereby amended by adding the following:
On August 3, 2015, Tencent, on behalf of TCH, submitted a non-binding proposal (the “Proposal”) to the Company’s board of directors related to the proposed acquisition of all of the Ordinary Shares not beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons, the Majority Shareholders (as defined below) and Company Management (as defined below) for cash consideration equal to US$9.00 per Ordinary Share or US$18.00 per ADS (the “Proposed Transaction”).
The Proposed Transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including, among other things, other large shareholders of the Company accounting for at least 70% of the outstanding voting power of the Company (the “Majority Shareholders”) and certain members of the Company’s management team (the “Company Management”) agreeing to support and roll their existing equity over in the Proposed Transaction and the negotiation and execution of definitive transaction agreements mutually acceptable in form and substance to the Company, the Reporting Persons, the Majority Shareholders and the Company Management. Neither the Company nor any Reporting Person is obligated to complete the Proposed Transaction, and a binding commitment with respect to the Proposed Transaction will result only from the execution of definitive documents, and then will be on the terms provided in such documentation.
As noted above, the Proposed Transaction is subject to the support of the Majority Shareholders and Company Management and in that regard, the Reporting Persons intend to seek to negotiate agreements for the participation of the Majority Shareholders and Company Management in the Proposed Transaction and to form a group with the Majority Shareholders and Company Management. In the event that the Reporting Persons successfully negotiate and form a group with the Majority Shareholders and Company Management, the Reporting Persons intend to further amend the Statement.
If the Proposed Transaction is completed, the Company’s ADSs will be delisted from the NASDAQ Stock Market, and the Company’s obligation to file periodic reports under the Act would terminate. In addition, consummation of the Proposed Transaction could result in one or more of the actions specified in Item 4(a)-(j) of Schedule 13D, including the acquisition or disposition of securities of the Company, a merger or other extraordinary transaction involving the Company, a change to the board of directors of the Company (as the surviving company in the merger), and a change in the Company’s memorandum and articles of association to reflect that the Company would become a privately held company.
References to the Proposal in this Statement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Proposal, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit 2, and incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
Item 5 is hereby replaced with the following:
The percentage of Ordinary Shares reported as owned by each Reporting Person is based upon a total of 38,301,458 Ordinary Shares outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on March 13, 2015.
