This Amendment amends and restates in its entirety the information set forth in the Transaction Statement.

 

On April 6, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Parent and Merger Sub, 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”). The Merger Agreement provides for the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company continuing as the surviving company (the “Surviving Company”) after the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. Midco is the sole shareholder of Parent.  Holdco is the sole shareholder of Midco. At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), Holdco will be beneficially owned by the Mr. Zhang Filing Persons, the MBKP Filing Persons, the Baring Filing Persons, Crawford, RedStone and DF Asset Management (collectively, the “Buyer Group”).

 

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, (i) each Share, other than certain Shares described below, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive US$6.75 per Share (such amount, the “Per Share Merger Consideration”), and (ii) each ADS (other than any ADSs representing Excluded Shares (as defined below)) will be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive US$13.50 per ADS (such amount, the “Per ADS Merger Consideration”) (net of the cancellation fee of US$0.05 per ADS payable pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the deposit agreement, dated as of November 17, 2014 (the “Deposit Agreement”), among the Company, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., in its capacity as the ADS depositary (the “ADS Depositary”), and the holders and beneficial owners of ADSs issued thereunder), and each Class A Share represented by such ADSs will be cancelled, in exchange for the right of the ADS Depositary, as the registered holder of the ADSs, to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration, which the ADS Depositary will distribute to the holders of such ADSs as the Per ADS Merger Consideration pursuant to the Deposit Agreement (net of the cancellation fee of US$0.05 per ADS), in each case, in cash, without interest and net of any applicable withholding taxes.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Merger is completed, the following Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs) will not be converted into or exchanged for the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration or the Per ADS Merger Consideration described in the immediately preceding paragraph:

 

(a) Each of the 15,528,160 Class A Shares (including Class A Shares represented by ADSs) and the 25,836,435 Class B Shares (collectively, the “Rollover Shares”) held by the Rollover Shareholders (as defined below), which will be contributed by the Rollover Shareholders to Holdco, recontributed by Holdco to Midco and recontributed by Midco to Parent pursuant to the Contribution and Support Agreement (as defined below), and continue to exist without interruption and will at the Effective Time and thereafter be and represent one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable ordinary share of the Surviving Company without any payment of, or the right to receive, the Per Share Merger Consideration or the Per ADS Merger Consideration;

 

(b) Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs) held by Parent, the Company or any of their respective subsidiaries and the Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs) held by the ADS Depositary and reserved for issuance pursuant to the 2010 Performance Incentive Plan of the Company and the 2014 Performance Incentive Plan of the Company (as amended, collectively, the “Share Incentive Plans”) immediately prior to the Effective Time (such Shares, together with the Rollover Shares, the “Excluded Shares”), which will be cancelled without payment of any consideration or distribution therefor; and

 

(c) Shares held by holders who have validly exercised and not effectively withdrawn or lost their rights to dissent from the Merger pursuant to Section 238 of the Companies Law Cap. 22 (Law 3 of 1961, as consolidated and revised) of the Cayman Islands (the “Cayman Islands Companies Law”), which will be cancelled at the Effective Time in exchange for the right to receive the fair value of such Shares determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 238 of the Cayman Islands Companies Law (the “Dissenting Shares”).

 

In addition to the foregoing, at the Effective Time, each option to purchase Shares granted under the Share Incentive Plans, whether or not vested, that is then outstanding and unexercised will be cancelled and, if the per Share exercise price of such option is less than US$6.75, entitle the holder thereof to receive, as soon as practicable after the Effective Time, from the Surviving Company or one of its subsidiaries, without interest and net of any applicable withholding taxes, a cash amount equal to the product of (a) the excess, if any, of US$6.75 over the exercise price of such option and (b) the number of Shares underlying such option. At the Effective Time, each restricted share awarded under the Share Incentive Plans that is outstanding but not fully vested immediately prior to the Effective Time will be cancelled and entitle the holder thereof to receive, as soon as practicable after the Effective Time, from the Surviving Company or one of its subsidiaries an amount equal to US$6.75, in cash, without interest and net of any applicable withholding taxes.

The Merger remains subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the closing conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, including the requisite approval of the Company’s shareholders and the consent of requisite holders of the senior unsecured notes issued by the Company in 2015 and 2017, if applicable, as well as certain other customary closing conditions. The Merger Agreement, the Plan of Merger and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Plan of Merger (collectively, the “Transactions”), including the Merger, must be authorized and approved by (i) a shareholders’ special resolution passed by the affirmative vote of holders of Shares representing at least two-thirds of the voting power of the Shares present and voting in person or by proxy as a single class at an extraordinary general meeting of the Company’s shareholders, (ii) a shareholders’ resolution passed by the affirmative vote of holders of Shares representing a majority of the aggregate voting power of the Shares and (iii) a shareholders’ resolution passed by the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the total outstanding Class A Shares.

 

Concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement on April 6, 2018, Parent entered into a contribution and support agreement (the “Contribution and Support Agreement”) with Horizon LLC, Baring SPV, Crawford and DF Asset Management (collectively, the “Rollover Shareholders”), Holdco and Midco pursuant to which, in connection with and immediately prior to the Effective Time:

 

· the Rollover Shareholders will contribute the Rollover Shares to Holdco in exchange for newly issued ordinary shares in Holdco;

 

· Holdco will recontribute the Rollover Shares to Midco in exchange for newly issued ordinary shares in Midco;

 

· Midco will recontribute the Rollover Shares to Parent in exchange for newly issued ordinary shares in Parent; and

 

· the Rollover Shares will continue as ordinary shares of the Surviving Company without payment of any consideration or distribution therefor.

 

As of the date of this Transaction Statement, the Rollover Shareholders beneficially own in the aggregate 15,528,160 Class A Shares (including Class A Shares represented by ADSs) and 25,836,435 Class B Shares, collectively representing approximately 29.6% of the issued and outstanding Shares and approximately 37.5% of the outstanding voting power of the Company (excluding, for purposes of this calculation, Shares issuable upon the exercise of options of the Company and excluding from the Shares beneficially owned by the Rollover Shareholders any Shares or ADSs that Crawford may acquire in connection with the ROFO Purchases (as defined below )).

 

On February 23, 2018, Baring SPV entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “TGMF SPA”) with Tiger Global Mauritius Fund, a Mauritius company limited by shares (“TGMF”), pursuant to which, among other things, on April 13, 2018, Baring SPV purchased from TGMF 5,264,080 ADSs (the “Subject ADSs”) representing 10,528,160 Class A Shares for, after giving effect to the adjustment set forth in the TGMF SPA, a purchase price per ADS of US$12.30 and an aggregate purchase price of US$64,748,184, which included a signing deposit of US$6,316,896 that Baring SPV deposited into an account of TGMF on February 28, 2018.  The closing of the purchase of the Subject ADSs by Baring SPV from TGMF was not conditioned on the Buyer Group entering into the Merger Agreement with the Company or any other transaction with the Company.  As a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the TGMF SPA, as of the date hereof, Baring SPV owns 10,528,160 Class A Shares represented by the Subject ADSs, which represent approximately 14.2% of the issued and outstanding Class A Shares or approximately 1.4% of the aggregate voting power of the issued and outstanding Shares. Pursuant to the terms of the Contribution and Support Agreement, Baring SPV has agreed to (a) contribute the Subject ADSs, in connection with and immediately prior to the Effective Time, to Holdco in exchange for newly issued ordinary shares in Holdco and (b) vote the Subject ADSs in favor of the authorization and approval of the Merger Agreement, the Plan of Merger and the Transactions, including the Merger.

On May 2, 2018, Crawford notified Ignition Growth Capital I, L.P. and Ignition Growth Capital Managing Directors Fund I, LLC (together, the “IGC Sellers”), and on May 3, 2018, Crawford notified GS Car Rental HK Limited and GS Car Rental HK Parallel Limited (together, the “GS Sellers”), that it was exercising its right of first offer under the Third Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement, dated as of December 11, 2013 (the “IRA”), by and among the Company and certain of its shareholders, including the IGC Sellers, the GS Sellers, Crawford and Ctrip Investment Holdings Ltd. (“Ctrip”), in respect of the Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs) held by the IGC Sellers and GS Sellers in response to a first offer notice that the IGC Sellers delivered to Crawford and Ctrip on April 23, 2018 (the “IGC First Offer Notice”) and a first offer notice that the GS Sellers delivered to Crawford and Ctrip on April 25, 2018 (the “GS First Offer Notice”). The IGC Sellers and the GS Sellers have advised Crawford and the Company that Ctrip has also exercised its right of first offer under the IRA to purchase Shares pursuant to the IGC First Offer Notice and the GS First Offer Notice.

 

Under the IRA, in the event that both Crawford and Ctrip validly exercise their respective right of first offer (and the transfer of Shares is not otherwise prohibited under the IRA), each of them is entitled to purchase its pro rata share (based on its ownership interest in the Company relative to the other) of the offered Shares. As of the date of this Transaction Statement, (a) the IGC Sellers own 37,501 Class A Shares, 6,187,197 Class B Shares and 533,885 ADSs (collectively, the “IGC Offered Securities”), and (b) the GS Sellers own 9,081,665 Class B Shares (collectively, the “GS Offered Shares”). Crawford’s pro rata share of (i) the IGC Offered Securities is 18,370 Class A Shares, 3,030,839 Class B Shares and 261,527 ADSs (representing 523,054 Class A Shares) (collectively, the “Crawford Pro Rata IGC Offered Securities”) and (ii) the GS Offered Shares is 4,448,713 Class B Shares (collectively, the “Crawford Pro Rata GS Offered Shares”).

 

On May 22, 2018, the Company notified the IGC Sellers and the GS Sellers that it had substantial evidence that Ctrip was engaging in business activities that directly competed with the Company’s business and, as a result, any sale of Shares, whether on a direct or indirect basis, by the IGC Sellers or the GS Sellers to Ctrip is expressly prohibited under the IRA, which prohibits direct or indirect transfers of Shares by certain shareholders, including the IGC Sellers and the GS Sellers, to any person who (or whose affiliate) directly or indirectly provides car rental services (each, a “Company Competitor”), without the agreement of Crawford. On May 22, 2018, Crawford also notified the IGC Sellers and the GS Sellers that it would not consent to any transfer of Shares (directly or indirectly) to Ctrip to the extent such transfer would constitute a transfer to a Company Competitor and that Crawford was ready, willing and able to purchase all of the IGC Offered Securities and the GS Offered Shares.

 

The purchase price of the Class A Shares and ADSs included in the IGC Offered Securities is US$6.75 per Class A Share, or US$13.50 per ADS, and the initial purchase price of the Class B Shares included in the IGC Offered Securities is US$7.25 per Class B Shares. The sale of the Class B Shares included in the IGC Offered Securities is expected to be implemented indirectly as a sale of the capital stock of one or more affiliates of the IGC Sellers, which will allow the transfer of the IGC Sellers’ Class B Shares without conversion into Class A Shares pursuant to the memorandum and articles of association of the Company. The initial purchase price of the GS Offered Shares offered by the GS Sellers in the GS First Offer Notice is US$7.25 per GS Offered Share, and the sale of the GS Offered Shares is expected to be implemented indirectly as a sale of the capital stock of the GS Sellers or one or more affiliates of the GS Sellers, which will allow the transfer of the GS Sellers’ Class B Shares without conversion into Class A Shares. The initial purchase price of the GS Offered Shares and the Class B Shares included in the IGC Offered Securities is subject to adjustment for a certain period of time if Crawford (or other members of the Buyer Group) offers to pay, or sell its Shares or ADSs at, a higher price to a holder of Shares or ADSs during such period (the “Top-Up Adjustment”).

 

It is anticipated that Crawford will enter into a definitive share purchase agreement with the IGC Sellers in respect of Crawford’s purchase of the IGC Offered Securities pursuant to the right of first offer (the “IGC ROFO Purchase”) and a definitive share purchase agreement with the GS Sellers in respect of Crawford’s purchase of the GS Offered Shares pursuant to the right of first offer (the “GS ROFO Purchase” and together with the IGC ROFO Purchase, the “ROFO Purchases”). Subject to finalizing such definitive share purchase agreements:

· if Crawford purchases all of the IGC Offered Securities in the IGC ROFO Purchase, Crawford will acquire approximately 5.2% of the issued and outstanding Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs), or approximately 8.6% of the aggregate voting power of the issued and outstanding Shares (assuming the IGC Sellers’ Class B Shares do not convert into Class A Shares upon the indirect transfer thereof to Crawford pursuant to the memorandum and articles of association of the Company), at an aggregate purchase price of US$52,317,758, subject to the Top-Up Adjustment;
· if Crawford purchases the Crawford Pro Rata IGC Offered Securities in the IGC ROFO Purchase, Crawford will acquire approximately 2.6% of the issued and outstanding Shares, or approximately 4.2% of the aggregate voting power of the issued and outstanding Shares (assuming Crawford’s pro rata share of the IGC Sellers’ Class B Shares do not convert into Class A Shares upon the indirect transfer thereof to Crawford pursuant to the memorandum and articles of association of the Company), at an aggregate purchase price of US$25,628,195, subject to the Top-Up Adjustment;
· if Crawford purchases all of the GS Offered Shares in the GS ROFO Purchase, Crawford will acquire approximately 6.5% of the issued and outstanding Shares, or approximately 12.4% of the aggregate voting power of the issued and outstanding Shares (assuming the GS Offered Shares do not convert into Class A Shares upon the indirect transfer thereof to Crawford pursuant to the memorandum and articles of association of the Company), at an aggregate purchase price of US$65,842,071, subject to the Top-Up Adjustment; and
· if Crawford purchases the Crawford Pro Rata GS Offered Shares in the GS ROFO Purchase, Crawford will acquire approximately 3.2% of the issued and outstanding Shares, or approximately 6.1% of the aggregate voting power of the issued and outstanding Shares (assuming Crawford’s pro rata share of the GS Offered Shares do not convert into Class A Shares upon the indirect transfer thereof to Crawford pursuant to the memorandum and articles of association of the Company), at an aggregate purchase price of US$32,253,169, subject to the Top-Up Adjustment.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Contribution and Support Agreement, Crawford has agreed to vote, or cause to be voted, any IGC Offered Securities it acquires, directly or indirectly, and GS Offered Shares it acquires in favor of the authorization and approval of the Merger Agreement, the Plan of Merger and the Transactions, including the Merger (and against any alternative transaction).

 

As of the date of this Transaction Statement, no definitive agreements with respect to the IGC ROFO Purchase or the GS ROFO Purchase have been executed and no assurances can be made that either the IGC ROFO Purchase or the GS ROFO Purchase will be consummated.

 

The Company will make available to its shareholders a proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement,” a preliminary copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(1) to this Transaction Statement), relating to the extraordinary general meeting of the Company’s shareholders, at which the Company’s shareholders will consider and vote upon, among other proposals, a proposal to authorize and approve the Merger Agreement, the Plan of Merger and the Transactions, including the Merger. Copies of the Merger Agreement and the Plan of Merger are attached to the Proxy Statement as Annex A and Annex B, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
