INTRODUCTION
This Amendment No. 3 to the Rule 13e-3 transaction statement on Schedule 13E-3, together with the exhibits hereto (this “Transaction Statement”), is being filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pursuant to Section 13(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), jointly by the following persons (each, a “Filing Person,” and collectively, the “Filing Persons”): (a) Qunar Cayman Islands Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Company”), the issuer of the Class A and Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.001 per share (each, a “Share” and collectively, the “Shares”), including the Shares represented by the American depositary shares (each an “ADS,” or collectively, the “ADSs”), each representing three Class B ordinary shares of the Company that is subject to the transaction pursuant to Rule 13e-3 under the Exchange Act; (b) Ocean Management Holdings Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“Parent”); (c) Ocean Management Merger Sub Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands that is wholly owned by Parent (“Merger Sub”); (d) Ocean Management Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“Ocean Management”), and (e) Ctrip.com International, Ltd. (“Ctrip”), an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands. Ctrip, together with the following persons are collectively referred to herein as the “Rollover Shareholders”: (i) Momentum Strategic Holdings, L.P. (“Momentum”), an exempted limited partnership registered in the Cayman Islands; (ii) M Strat Holdings, L.P. (“M Strat”), an exempted limited partnership registered in the Cayman Islands; (iii) Earthly Paradise Investment Fund L.P. (“Earthly Paradise”), an exempted limited partnership registered in the Cayman Islands; (iv) Seavour Investment Limited (“Seavour”), a limited company incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Seychelles; (v) Shuofeng Holdings Limited (“Shuofeng”), a limited liability company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands; (vi) Richbright Investment Limited (“Richbright”), a limited liability company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands; and (vii) Eagle Limited (“Eagle”), a limited company organized under the laws of the British Virgin Islands. Parent, Merger Sub, Ocean Management and the Rollover Shareholders are collectively referred to herein as the “Buyer Group.”
On October 19, 2016, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “merger agreement”) which included a plan of merger required to be filed with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands, substantially in the form attached as Annex A to the merger agreement (the “plan of merger”). If the merger agreement and the plan of merger are approved and authorized by the Company’s shareholders and the other conditions to the closing of the merger (as described below) are met, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “merger”) in accordance with the Companies Law, Cap. 22 (Law 3 of 1961, as consolidated and revised) of the Cayman Islands (the “Cayman Islands Companies Law”), with the Company continuing as the surviving company resulting from the merger.
Under the terms of the merger agreement, at the effective time of the merger (the “Effective Time”), each (a) issued and outstanding Share, other than (i) Shares beneficially owned by each Rollover Shareholder (such Shares collectively, the “Rollover Shares”), (ii) Shares held by Parent, the Company, or any of their subsidiaries, (iii) Shares (including ADSs representing such Shares) held by the ADS depositary (as defined below) and reserved for issuance and allocation pursuant to the Share Incentive Plans (as defined below) (Shares described under (i) through (iii) above are collectively referred to herein as the “Excluded Shares”), (iv) Shares owned by shareholders who have validly exercised and have not effectively withdrawn or lost their rights to dissent in accordance with Section 238 of the Cayman Islands Companies Law (the “Dissenting Shares”) and (v) Shares represented by ADSs, will be canceled and cease to exist in exchange for the right to receive $10.13 in cash without interest, and (b) issued and outstanding ADS together with the Shares underlying such ADSs (other than any ADS representing Excluded Shares) will be canceled in exchange for the right to receive $30.39 in cash per ADS without interest (less $0.05 per ADS cancelation fees pursuant to the terms of the deposit agreement, dated as of October 31, 2013, by and among the Company, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, (the “ADS depositary”) and the holders and beneficial owners from time to time of ADSs issued thereunder). The Excluded Shares and ADSs representing such Excluded Shares will be canceled and cease to exist for no consideration.

The Dissenting Shares will be canceled and each holder thereof will be entitled to receive only the payment of the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with Section 238 of the Cayman Islands Companies Law.
In addition, at the Effective Time, the Company will (i) terminate the Company’s 2015 Share Incentive Plan and the 2007 Share Incentive Plan (together, the “Share Incentive Plans”), and any relevant award agreements applicable to the Share Incentive Plans, and (ii) cancel each option to purchase Shares (“Company Option”) that is outstanding and unexercised, whether or not vested or exercisable.
At the Effective Time, each outstanding vested Company Option granted under the Company’s Share Incentive Plans shall be canceled in exchange for the number of American depositary shares of Ctrip (“Ctrip ADSs”) calculated by multiplying (A) the number of Shares underlying the vested Company Options, by (B) 0.4833, being a ratio that ensures equivalent economic value for the vested Company Options (calculated in good faith in compliance with the relevant award agreement with the holder of the vested Company Options and the Framework Agreement for Treatment of Qunar Employee Shares and Equity Awards between the Company and Ctrip, dated as of December 9, 2015) (the “Vested Award Exchange Ratio”), against the payment by the holder of the vested Company Options of the full amount of exercise price payable with respect to the vested Company Options.
At the Effective Time, each outstanding unvested Company Option granted under the Share Incentive Plans shall be canceled in exchange for an option of Ctrip to purchase ordinary shares, par value $0.01, of Ctrip (the “Converted Option”). Each Converted Option, upon exercise, will entitle the holder to the number of ordinary shares of Ctrip calculated by multiplying (A) the number of Shares underlying the unvested Company Options, by (B) the Vested Award Exchange Ratio divided by eight, at an exercise price and a vesting schedule to be determined by Ctrip so as to ensure equivalent economic value with the unvested Company Options.
Under the terms of the support agreement entered into by and among Parent, the Company and the Rollover Shareholders (the “Support Agreement”), concurrently with the execution and delivery of the merger agreement, at the Effective Time, the Rollover Shares shall be canceled and cease to exist for no consideration, and Parent shall, immediately prior to the closing of the merger, issue to each Rollover Shareholder the number of ordinary shares of Parent set forth in the Support Agreement.
The merger remains subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the merger agreement, including obtaining the requisite authorization and approval of the shareholders of the Company. In order for the merger to be completed, the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the merger must be authorized and approved by a special resolution of the Company passed by an affirmative vote of holders of Shares representing at least two-thirds of the voting power of the outstanding Shares entitled to vote present and voting in person or by proxy as a single class at the extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders of the Company.
The Company will make available to its shareholders a proxy statement (the “proxy statement,” a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)-(1) to this Transaction Statement), relating to the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders of the Company, at which the shareholders of the Company will consider and vote upon, among other proposals, a proposal to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement and the plan of merger, including the merger. A copy of the merger agreement is attached to the proxy statement as Annex A and is incorporated herein by reference.
