(f) Teng Yue and Teng Yue Holdings are organized under the laws of the State of Delaware. Mr. Li is a citizen of the People’s Republic of China.
Item 3. | Source and Amount of Funds |
As of June 26, 2013, the Teng Yue Accounts had invested approximately $16,589,390 (inclusive of brokerage commissions) in the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer. The source of these funds was the working capital of the Teng Yue Accounts. The Ordinary Shares are held in a margin account; however, no leverage was used for the purchase of the Ordinary Shares.
Item 4. | Purpose of the Transaction |
The Reporting Persons purchased, or caused to be purchased, the Ordinary Shares for the Teng Yue Accounts based on the belief that such securities, when purchased, were undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity. Although the Reporting Persons are currently acquiring securities of the Issuer, the Reporting Persons do not intend to acquire any particular portion of the outstanding Ordinary Shares and any further purchases will only be made if the price of the Ordinary Shares remains attractive. Consistent with their investment purpose, the Reporting Persons at any time and from time to time may acquire, or cause to be acquired, additional Ordinary Shares or dispose of, or cause to be disposed of, any or all of their Ordinary Shares depending upon an ongoing evaluation of the investment in the Ordinary Shares, prevailing market conditions, other investment opportunities, liquidity requirements of the Reporting Persons and/or other investment considerations.
The purpose of the acquisition of the Ordinary Shares was for investment, and the acquisitions of the Ordinary Shares were made in the ordinary course of business and were not made for the purpose of acquiring control of the Issuer.
Also, consistent with the investment purpose, the Reporting Persons may engage in communications with one or more officers of the Issuer and/or one or more members of the board of directors of the Issuer and/or one or more representatives of the Issuer and/or one or more shareholders of the Issuer, regarding the Issuer, including, but not limited to, its operations, business, assets, capitalization, financial condition, operations, governance, management, prospects, strategy, strategic transactions, financing strategies and alternatives, and future plans of the Issuer, and may discuss ideas that, if effected, could result in the acquisition by persons of additional Ordinary Shares of the Issuer, or an extraordinary corporate transaction involving the Issuer.
6 of 10
Except to the extent the foregoing may be deemed a plan or proposal, the Reporting Persons have no plans or proposals which relate to, or could result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (a) through (j), inclusive, of the instructions to Item 4 of the Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their position and/or change their purpose and/or formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto.
Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer |
(a) The aggregate percentage of Ordinary Shares reported to be owned by the Reporting Persons is based upon 569,206,989 Ordinary Shares outstanding, which is the total number of Ordinary Shares outstanding as of March 31, 2013, as reported in the Issuer’s Form 20-F filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 24, 2013.
Teng Yue, as the investment manager of the Teng Yue Accounts, may be deemed to beneficially own the 33,444,980 Ordinary Shares held by the Teng Yue Accounts, representing approximately 5.9% of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Issuer.
Teng Yue Holdings, as the general partner of Teng Yue, the investment manager of the Teng Yue Accounts, may be deemed to beneficially own the 33,444,980 Ordinary Shares held by the Teng Yue Accounts, representing approximately 5.9% of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Issuer.
Mr. Li, as principal of Teng Yue, the investment manager of the Teng Yue Accounts, and Teng Yue Holdings, the general partner of Teng Yue, may be deemed to beneficially own the 33,444,980 Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the Teng Yue Accounts, representing approximately 5.9% of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Issuer.
(b) Teng Yue, Teng Yue Holdings and Mr. Li have the shared power to vote and dispose of the Ordinary Shares owned by the Teng Yue Accounts reported in this Schedule 13D.
(c) The transactions in the Issuer’s securities by the Reporting Persons during the sixty days prior to the obligation to file this Schedule 13D are listed as Appendix 1 attached hereto and made a part hereof. The transactions in the Ordinary Shares were effected in the open market, and the reported price per share excludes commissions.

Item 6. | Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer |
The responses to Item 4 are incorporated herein by reference.
The Teng Yue Accounts from time to time may enter into and unwind cash settled equity swap or other similar derivative arrangements with respect to the Ordinary Shares or other securities of the Issuer. The Teng Yue Accounts currently have additional long economic exposure to the Ordinary Shares in an amount equal to approximately 1.1% of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Issuer through such arrangements with Morgan Stanley Capital Services Inc. These arrangements do not and will not give the Reporting Persons voting or investment control over underlying securities of the Issuer and, accordingly, the Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership of any such underlying securities of the Issuer.
Other than as described herein, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships among the Reporting Persons, or between the Reporting Persons and any other person, with respect to the securities of the Issuer.
