ISSUANCE OF NEW CLASS Z ORDINARY SHARES UNDER THE GENERAL MANDATE
NOTES REPURCHASES AND ADS OFFERING
On January 9, 2023 (U.S. Eastern Time), the Company and the Underwriter entered into the Equity Underwriting and Notes Exchange Agreement, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue 15,344,000 ADSs partially in exchange for an aggregate principal amount of US$384.8 million of its outstanding December 2026 Notes to be purchased by the Underwriter and its applicable affiliate(s) from certain holders of the Notes through private negotiations. The Underwriter will act as the sole book-running manager to sell the ADSs to be issued by the Company in the Offering. Concurrently with the Offering, the Underwriter and its applicable affiliate(s), as duly engaged and authorized by the Company, entered into separate agreements with certain holders of the Notes to purchase the Exchange Notes from such holders for a Purchase Price of approximately US$331.2 million. The net proceeds of the Offering (after deducting the selling commission under the Equity Underwriting and Notes Exchange Agreement) will be used, as a part of the Company’s comprehensive liability management exercise (i) by the Underwriter to fund the Purchase Price of the Exchange Notes payable by the Underwriter to the holders of such Exchange Notes, and (ii) in respect of the Remaining Proceeds to be paid by the Underwriter to the Company, by the Company, to replenish its cash reserve after its repurchases of certain convertible senior notes in the fourth quarter of 2022 and for its other working capital purposes. The closing of each of the Notes Exchange and the Notes Purchase is contingent upon, among others, the closing of the Offering.
On January 9, 2023 (U.S. Eastern Time), the Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form F-3 and a preliminary prospectus supplement with the SEC in connection with the offers and sales of 15,344,000 ADSs by the Underwriter at the Offer Price. It is expected that the ADSs will be placed to not fewer than six Placees. To the best of the knowledge, information and belief of the Directors and the Underwriter, the Placees and the ultimate beneficial owners of the Placees are or will be, as the case may be, Independent Third Parties. The 15,344,000 Class Z Ordinary Shares of the Company with an aggregate nominal value of approximately US$1,534.4 underlying the ADSs to be issued pursuant to the Offering represent (i) approximately 3.89% of the 394,579,585 Shares of the Company issued and outstanding as of the date of this announcement, and (ii) approximately 3.74% of the Shares of the Company issued and outstanding as enlarged by such Class Z Ordinary Shares.
