Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meaning assigned to such terms in the Schedule 13D. All items or responses not described herein remain as previously reported in the Schedule 13D. Responses to each item of this Statement on Schedule 13D are incorporated by reference into the response to each other item, as applicable.
Item 2. Identity and Background
Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the below paragraphs immediately after the last paragraph of Item 2:
As further described in Item 4 below, MHGE Intermediate and the Additional Consortium Members executed a Deed of Adherence, dated December 5, 2013, in connection with a consortium agreement, dated August 16, 2013 (the “Consortium Agreement”), as amended on December 5, 2013, pursuant to which MHGE Intermediate and the Additional Consortium Members were admitted as consortium members with Mr. Shawn Ding, Ms. Julia Huang, Moral Known Industrial Limited and South Lead Technology Limited (collectively, the “Founder Parties”), the existing shareholders of the Issuer as set forth in the Consortium Agreement (collectively, the “Existing Shareholders”). The Existing Shareholders hold 6,949,595 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer and 346,000 Ordinary Shares underlying stock options exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof in the aggregate (the “Shares Held by Existing Shareholders”). Weblearning Company Limited and Guo Young (the “Additional Consortium Members”) hold 794,358 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer (the “Shares Held by Additional Consortium Members”). Ms. Huang directly owns 573,000 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer and indirectly owns 1,943,780 Ordinary Shares underlying stock options and restricted stock units exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof (the “Shares Held by Ms. Huang”), as reported on a Schedule 13D filed by Ms. Huang and her investment vehicle with the SEC on December 6, 2013. Mr. Shawn Ding directly owns 1,040,370 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer and indirectly owns 2,085,380 Ordinary Shares underlying stock options and restricted stock units exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof (the “Shares Held by Mr. Ding”), as reported on a Schedule 13D filed by Mr. Ding and his investment vehicle with the SEC on December 6, 2013. As a result of the Consortium Agreement, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to (a) constitute a “group” (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b) of the Act) with the Founder Parties, the Existing Shareholders and the Additional Consortium Members and (b) beneficially own the 18,502,720 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer.
Due to the relationship of the Reporting Persons described in this Item 2 and the provisions of the Consortium Agreement described in this Item 2 and Item 4, each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to share with the Founder Parties, the Existing Shareholders, the Additional Consortium Members power to dispose or direct the disposition of 18,502,720 Ordinary Shares, which constitutes approximately 62.1% of the Ordinary Shares. Each Reporting Person hereby expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of any Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the Founder Parties , the Existing Shareholders, the Additional Consortium Members or any other person, and does not affirm membership in a “group” (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b) of the Act) with the Founder Parties, the Existing Shareholders, the Additional Consortium Members or any other person, and this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as acknowledging that any of the Reporting Persons, for purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or for any other purpose, beneficially owns any Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the Founder Parties, the Existing Shareholders, the Additional Consortium Members or any other person or is a member of a group with the Founder Parties, the Existing Shareholders, the Additional Consortium Members or any other person.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
MHGE Intermediate’s acquisition of 3,377,336 of the Ordinary Shares reported in this Schedule 13D was part of an internal reorganization performed by The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. in conjunction with that entity’s sale of all of the shares of McGraw-Hill Global Education Holdings, LLC to Management Holdings GP. This latter sale was consummated on March 22, 2013, upon which the Reporting Persons became beneficial owners of the Ordinary Shares reported in this Statement on Schedule 13D.

On December 5, 2013, MHGE Intermediate and the Additional Consortium Members executed a Deed Of Adherence pursuant to which MHGE Intermediate and the Additional Consortium Members were admitted to as consortium members. Under the Consortium Agreement, MHGE Intermediate, the Founder Parties, the Existing Shareholders and the Additional Consortium Members have agreed to, among other things, form a consortium to work exclusively with one another to acquire the Issuer (the “Transaction”). In addition, MHGE Intermediate, the Founder Parties, the Existing Shareholders and the Additional Consortium Members have agreed not to (1) make a competing proposal for the acquisition of control of the Issuer; or (2) acquire or dispose of any (i) ADSs, (ii) shares of the Issuer or (iii) warrants, options or shares that are convertible into ADSs or Ordinary Shares of the Issuer. Further, MHGE Intermediate, the Founder Parties, the Existing Shareholders and the Additional Consortium Members have agreed to incorporate a holding company under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“Holdco”) and cause Holdco to incorporate a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco to be merged with and into the Issuer upon consummation of the Transaction; contribute all remaining Ordinary Shares of Issuer and all outstanding restricted share units and share options held by each party to Holdco; conduct due diligence with respect to the Issuer and its business; engage in discussions with the Issuer regarding the Proposal; negotiate in good faith any amendments to the Proposal; negotiate in good faith the terms of the documentation required to implement the Transaction, including but not limited to the Proposal, a merger agreement, any debt financing documents and a shareholders’ agreement that would, among other things, support the Proposal or govern the relationship of the shareholders of Holdco following the consummation of the Transaction; use best efforts to arrange debt financing for the Issuer to be implemented at or following the consummation of the Transaction; and if the Transaction is consummated, be reimbursed by the surviving company for certain costs and expenses related to the Transaction. Under the terms of the Consortium Agreement, MHGE Intermediate has the right to withdraw from the consortium between signing and closing of the merger under certain circumstances. In addition, promptly following the closing, MHGE Intermediate shall have the right to designate one or more directors to the Board of Directors of each of Holdco and the surviving corporation as is proportionate to MHGE Intermediate’s equity ownership in Holdco. The Consortium Agreement may be amended by MHGE Intermediate, the Founder Parties, the Existing Shareholders and the Additional Consortium Members at any time.

None of the Issuer, any of the Reporting Persons, the Founding Parties, any of the Existing Shareholders or any of the Additional Consortium Members is obligated to complete the transactions described herein, and a binding commitment with respect to the Transaction will result only from the execution of definitive documents, and then will be on the terms provided in such documentation.

As a result of these activities, one or more of the Reporting Persons may suggest or take a position with respect to potential changes in the operations, management, or capital structure of the Issuer as a means of enhancing shareholder value.
