On April 3, 2015, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) providing for the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), Parent will be beneficially owned by Ningxia Yilida, Ningxia, Orient Hongtai, Orient Hongzhi, Hao Ding, Zhengjun Investment, Ningxia Silkroad and Zhongrong Legend.
If the Merger is completed, each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be cancelled and cease to exist and will be converted into and exchanged for the right to receive US$3.55 and each issued and outstanding ADS will represent the right to surrender one ADS in exchange for US$7.10 (less US$0.05 per ADS cancellation fees pursuant to the terms of the Deposit Agreement, dated as of September 24, 2009, among the Company, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as depositary, and the holders of ADSs issued thereunder), in each case, in cash, without interest and net of any applicable withholding taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Merger is completed, the following Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs) will be cancelled and cease to exist at the Effective Time but will not be converted into the right to receive the consideration described in the immediately preceding sentence:
| (a) | 48,759,187 Class B ordinary shares held by Yili Shengda, 48,759,187 Class B ordinary shares held by Zhongrong Shengda, 61,766,334 Class A ordinary shares held by Orient Hongtai, 61,766,335 Class A ordinary shares held by Orient Hongzhi, 80,577,828 Class A ordinary shares held by Zhongrong Investment, 107,438,129 Class A ordinary shares held by Hao Ding and the Shares held by Parent, the Company or any of their subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time, which will be cancelled without payment of any consideration or distribution therefor; and |
| (b) | Shares owned by shareholders who have validly exercised and have not effectively withdrawn or lost their dissenters’ rights under the Cayman Islands Companies Law Cap. 22 (Law 3 of 1961, as consolidated and revised) (the “Cayman Islands Companies Law”), which will be cancelled and will entitle the former holders thereof to receive the fair value thereon in accordance with such holders’ dissenters’ rights under the Cayman Islands Companies Law. |
| 1 |
In addition to the foregoing, at the Effective Time, (i) each option to purchase Shares, whether vested or unvested (“Company Options”), that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive, as soon as practicable after the Effective Time, an amount equal to the product of the total number of Shares issuable under such Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the excess of US$3.55 over the exercise price payable per Share under such Company Option, in cash, without interest and net of any applicable withholding taxes, and (ii) each restricted Share with respect to which the restrictions have not lapsed (“Company Restricted Shares”) and each restricted stock unit whether or not the restrictions with respect thereto have lapsed (“Company RSUs”), in each case, that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive, as soon as practicable after the Effective Time, an amount equal to US$3.55, in cash, without interest and net of any applicable withholding taxes.
Furthermore, concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement, certain existing shareholders of the Company, namely Yili Shengda, Zhongrong Shengda, Orient Hongtai, Orient Hongzhi , Zhongrong Investment and Hao Ding (collectively, the “Rollover Shareholders”), have entered into a support agreement with Parent, pursuant to which they have agreed with Parent, among other things, that (a) they will vote (or cause to be voted) all of the Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs) owned directly or indirectly by them in favor of the proposal to approve and authorize the Merger Agreement, the plan of merger required to be filed with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands in connection with the Merger (the “Plan of Merger”) and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Plan of Merger (collectively, the “Transactions”), including the Merger, and (b) the Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs) owned directly or indirectly by them will, in connection with and at the Effective Time, be cancelled for no consideration in the Merger.
The Merger remains subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, including obtaining the requisite approval of the shareholders of the Company. The Merger Agreement, the Plan of Merger and the Transactions, including the Merger, must be authorized and approved by a special resolution representing an affirmative vote of shareholders holding two-thirds or more of the voting power represented by the Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs) present and voting in person or by proxy as a single class at the extraordinary general meeting of the Company’s shareholders held in accordance with its memorandum and articles of association.
The Company will make available to its shareholders a proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement,” a preliminary copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(1) to this Transaction Statement), relating to the extraordinary general meeting of the Company’s shareholders, at which the Company’s shareholders will consider and vote upon, among other proposals, a proposal to authorize and approve the Merger Agreement, the Plan of Merger and the Transactions, including the Merger.
