Item 3.        Source and Amount of Funds or Other Considerations

 

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

The Offeror Group (as defined in Item 4 below) anticipates that the total amount of funds necessary to purchase all of the outstanding Ordinary Shares and ADSs that the Offeror Group does not currently own pursuant to the Offer (as defined in Item 4 below) (as well as 600,000 ADSs owned by Kai Ding and 146,499 ADSs owned by TCL (as defined in Item 4 below), which shall be tendered in the Offer), to consummate the Merger (as defined in Item 4 below) and to pay related fees and expenses to be approximately $36 million.

 

On July 5, 2020, Parent (as defined in Item 4 below) received a debt commitment letter (the “Debt Commitment Letter”) from Daiwa Energy & Infrastructure Co. Ltd. (the “Lender”), pursuant to which and subject to the conditions set forth therein, the Lender committed to provide a term loan facility to the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary Sky Solar Japan Co., Ltd. (“SSJ”) in an aggregate amount of 4.3 billion Japanese Yen, or approximately $40 million, which SSJ will make available for the Offeror Group to complete the Offer and the Merger (the “Loan Facility” or the “Debt Financing”), as described below. On July 5, 2020, Parent accepted the Debt Commitment Letter.

 

The Loan Facility from the Lender will remain available for utilization. The Debt Commitment Letter provides a summary of major terms and conditions of the Debt Financing. The definitive loan agreement relating to the loan facility has not been executed as of the date hereof and, accordingly, the actual terms of the loan facility may differ from those described in the Offer to Purchase (as defined in Item 4 below). In addition, in order to make the proceeds of the Debt Financing available to Offeror Group, concurrently with entry into the definitive loan agreement, SSJ will issue a note to Parent in an amount sufficient for the Offeror Group to complete the Offer and the Merger.

 

Lender’s commitments to provide the Debt Financing to SSJ are subject to, among other things, (i) payment of a commitment fee and (ii) the satisfaction of all conditions to this Offer.

 

The Loan Facility will mature on the date that is twelve months after the date of utilization, and all outstanding amounts under the Loan Facility will be repaid prior to or at the maturity date.

 

The Loan Facility bears a stated interest rate of 6% per annum for the initial 2 billion Japanese Yen utilized, and a stated interest rate of 8% per annum for the remaining 2.3 billion Japanese Yen utilized.  Interest on the loan facility is payable in full on the maturity date.

 

Until all outstanding amounts and obligations under the Loan Facility have been repaid and discharged in full, the obligations with respect to the Loan Facility shall be secured by assets of SSJ.

 

The information set forth in or incorporated by reference in Item 4 of this statement is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

 

The information disclosed in this Item 3 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Debt Commitment Letter, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 99.4 and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

Item 4.                     Purpose of Transaction

 

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

On July 6, 2020, the Consortium notified the special committee of the Company’s board of directors via e-mail to Kirkland & Ellis LLP, legal counsel to the special committee, that the Consortium withdrew the Proposal with immediate effect.

AL-Tammar, a natural person and citizen of Kuwait, Development Holding Company Ltd., an exempted company with limited liability organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“DHCL”) and Bjoern Ludvig Ulfsson Nilsson, a natural person and citizen of Sweden (JNKI, IDG, Jolmo Solar, CES Holding, Jing Kang, Bin Shi, SCHI, Kai Ding, TCL, Esteem, Mamaya, Xanadu, Abdullateef A. AL-Tammar, DHCL and Bjoern Ludvig Ulfsson Nilsson, collectively with Parent and Purchaser, the “Offeror Group”), commenced a tender offer to purchase all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”) including all Ordinary Shares represented by American depositary shares (the “ADSs,” each representing twenty Ordinary Shares), of the Company not currently owned by Offeror Group (as well as 600,000 ADSs owned by Kai Ding and 146,499 ADSs owned by TCL, which shall be tendered in the Offer), at a price of $0.30 in cash per Ordinary Share, or $6.00 in cash per ADS, net to the seller in cash, without interest and less any ADS cancellation fees and other related fees and withholding taxes (the “Offer Price”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, filed by the Offeror Group with the SEC on July 6, 2020 (the “Offer to Purchase”), and the related letter of transmittal for Ordinary Shares (the “Share Letter of Transmittal”) and the related letter of transmittal for ADSs (the “ADS Letter of Transmittal,” together with the Share Letter of Transmittal, “Letters of Transmittal”) which, together with any amendments or supplements, collectively constitute the “Offer.” Following the purchase by Purchaser of shares of the Company in the Offer, Parent intends to cause the Company to merge with and into Purchaser (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. As a result of the merger, each outstanding Ordinary Share/ADS (other than any Ordinary Shares/ADSs owned by Offeror Group) will be converted into the right to receive the Offer Price.

The Offer is also conditioned upon certain other conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase.

 

8
