Item 15 | Additional Information |
Item 15(c) is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
On July 14, 2014, an extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders of the Company was held at 10:00 a.m. (Hong Kong time), at the offices of OMelveny & Myers, 31st Floor, AIA Central, 1 Connaught Road Central, Hong Kong. At the extraordinary general meeting, the shareholders of the Company voted to approve the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger, and the proposal to authorize the directors to do all things necessary to give effect to the Merger Agreement.
On July 18, 2014, the Company and Merger Sub filed a plan of merger with the Cayman Islands Registrar of Companies, which was registered by the Cayman Islands Registrar of Companies as of July 18, 2014, pursuant to which the Merger became effective on July 18, 2014. As a result of the Merger, the Company ceased to be a publicly traded company and became wholly owned by Parent.
At the effective time of the Merger, each of the Companys ordinary shares, par value US$0.0000002 per share (each, a Share and collectively, the Shares) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger was cancelled and converted into the right to receive US$12.00, and because each of the Companys American Depositary Shares (the ADSs) represents one Share, each issued and outstanding ADS immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger was cancelled and represents the right to surrender such ADS in exchange for US$12.00 (less US$0.05 per ADS cancellation fees pursuant to the terms of the Deposit Agreement, dated as of November 6, 2007, among the Company, Citibank, N.A., in its capacity as the ADS depositary, and the holders and beneficial owners of ADSs issued thereunder), in each case, in cash, without interest and net of any applicable withholding taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following Shares (including such Shares represented by ADSs) were cancelled at the effective time of the Merger but were not converted into the right to receive the consideration described in the immediately preceding sentence:
(a) | 58,224,305 Shares held by Union Sky, 11,800,000 Shares held by Baring SPV and the Shares held by Parent, the Company or any of their subsidiaries immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, which were cancelled without payment of any consideration or distribution therefor; and |
(b) | 37,500,000 Shares held by Union Sky immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, which were cancelled in exchange for Union Skys right to receive a promissory note to be issued by the Company as the surviving company in the Merger in principal amount of US$450,000,000, which is equal to the product of (i) 37,500,000 and (ii) US$12.00, which note bears simple interest at 2.0% per annum. |
The Company did not receive any notice of objection from any shareholder prior to the vote to approve the Merger, which is required for exercising any dissenter rights.
2
In addition to the foregoing, at the effective time of the Merger, (i) each option to purchase Shares granted under the Companys 2007 Performance Incentive Plan and the Employee Share Option Scheme (collectively, the Share Incentive Plans) that was issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, whether vested or unvested, was cancelled and converted into the right to receive, as soon as practicable after the effective time of the Merger (and in any event no more than five business days after the effective time of the Merger), an amount equal to the product of the total number of Shares issuable under such option immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger multiplied by the excess of US$12.00 over the exercise price payable per Share under such option, in cash, without interest and net of any applicable withholding taxes, and (ii) each restricted Share awarded under the Share Incentive Plans that was issued and outstanding (and with respect to which the restrictions had not lapsed) immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the Company Restricted Shares) was cancelled and converted into the right to receive, as soon as practicable after the effective time of the Merger (and in any event no more than five business days after the effective time of the Merger), an amount equal to US$12.00, in cash, without interest and net of any applicable withholding taxes.
Parent, being the parent of the Company after the Merger, has entered into agreements with certain executive officers (other than Mr. Shi) and certain members of senior management of the Company (collectively, the Deferred Payment Management Participants) pursuant to which each Deferred Payment Management Participant has agree to a deferred payment arrangement (the Deferred Payment Arrangement) with respect to cash payable to such Deferred Payment Management Participant with respect to his or her Company Restricted Shares as contemplated in the Merger Agreement (such cash payment, the Company Restricted Share Payment). The Deferred Payment Arrangements do not change the Company Restricted Share Payment amount of US$12.00, in cash, without interest and net of any applicable withholding taxes, payable in respect of each Company Restricted Share as contemplated in the Merger Agreement, but (i) defer the Company Restricted Share Payment for each Deferred Payment Management Participant to a future date and (ii) subject such Company Restricted Share Payment to customary terms and conditions, including continued employment with the Company as the surviving company in the Merger or its relevant affiliate. The form of Deferred Payment Arrangement is filed as Exhibit (d)-(2) to this Transaction Statement.
As a result of the Merger, the ADSs will no longer be listed on any securities exchange or quotation system, including the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the ADS program for the Shares will terminate. The NYSE has filed an application on Form 25 with the SEC to remove the ADSs from listing on the NYSE and withdraw registration of the Shares under the Exchange Act. The deregistration will become effective 90 days after the filing of the Form 25 or such shorter period as may be determined by the SEC. In addition, the Company intends to suspend its reporting obligations under the Exchange Act by filing a certification and notice on Form 15 with the SEC in ten days. The Companys reporting obligations under the Exchange Act will be suspended immediately as of the filing date of the Form 15 and will terminate once the deregistration becomes effective.
