The Consortium Agreement provides, among other things, for: cooperation in arranging financing; engaging advisors; admission of new Consortium members; cooperation in obtaining applicable governmental, statutory, regulatory or other approvals, licenses, waivers or exemptions for the consummation of the transactions; and cooperation in preparing definitive documentation with respect to the Proposed Transaction. During the period beginning on the date of the Consortium Agreement and ending the first to occur of (i) the 6-month anniversary of the date of the Consortium Agreement and (ii) the termination of the Consortium Agreement on the occurrence of other termination events (the Exclusivity Period), members of the Consortium have agreed, among other things, to: (a) work exclusively with each other with respect to the Proposed Transaction; (b) not to make a competing proposal for the acquisition of control of the Issuer; (c) acquire or dispose of any securities of the Issuer; or (d) enter into any written or oral agreement, arrangement or understanding regarding, or do, anything which is directly inconsistent with the Proposed Transaction.
On May 25, 2020, the Consortium submitted a non-binding proposal (the Proposal) to the Issuers board of directors. Under the Proposal, members of the Consortium propose to acquire, through an acquisition vehicle to be formed by them, all of the outstanding Ordinary Shares not beneficially owned by the Consortium members for US$6.00 per ADS in cash, representing a premium of 81.3% to the closing price of the Issuers ADSs on May 22, 2020 and a premium of 94.0% and 109.2% to the volume-weighted average closing price of the Issuers ADSs during the last 7 and 30 trading days, respectively. The Consortium intends to finance the Proposed Transaction through a combination of debt and equity financing.
The Proposal also provides that, among other things, the Consortium will (a) conduct customary due diligence on the Issuer and (b) negotiate and execute definitive agreements with respect to the Proposed Transaction that will include provisions typical for transactions of this type.
The Proposed Transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including, among other things, the negotiation and execution of a definitive merger agreement and other related agreements mutually acceptable in form and substance to the Issuer and the members of the Consortium. Neither the Issuer nor any member of the Consortium is obligated to complete the Proposed Transaction, and a binding commitment with respect to the Proposed Transaction will result only from the execution of definitive documents, and then will be on the terms provided in such documentation.
If the Proposed Transaction is completed, the Issuers ADSs would be delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market, and the Issuers obligation to file periodic reports under the Act would terminate. In addition, consummation of the Proposed Transaction could result in one or more of the actions specified in Items 4(a)-(j) of this Schedule 13D, including the acquisition or disposition of securities of the Issuer, a merger or other extraordinary transaction involving the Issuer, a change to the board of directors of the Issuer (as the surviving company in the merger), and a change in the Issuers memorandum and articles of association to reflect that the Issuer would become a privately held company.
On July 6, 2020, the Consortium notified the special committee of the Companys 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.
