Introduction

This Schedule 13D/A (the “Schedule 13D/A”) amends the previous Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons (as defined below) with the SEC on January 30, 2014, as amended and supplemented by the Amendment No. 1 filed under Schedule 13D/A on February 19, 2014 and  the Amendment No. 2 filed under Schedule 13D/A on April 21, 2014 (the “Original 13D”) with respect to Shanda Games Limited (the “Company”). Except as amended and supplemented herein, the information set forth in the Original 13D remains unchanged.  Capitalized terms used herein without definition have meanings assigned thereto in the Original 13D.
  
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby amended and restated as follows: 

On January 27, 2014, Shanda Interactive and  Primavera Capital (Cayman) Fund I L.P. (“Primavera”, together with Shanda Interactive, the “Consortium” and each member in the Consortium, a “Consortium Member”) entered into a consortium agreement (the “Consortium Agreement”). Under the Consortium Agreement, the Consortium Members agreed, among other things, (i) to jointly deliver a preliminary non-binding proposal (the “Proposal”) to the Board to acquire the Company in a going private transaction (the “Transaction”), (ii) to deal exclusively with each other with respect to the Transaction until the earlier of (x) 9 months after the date thereof, and (y) termination of the Consortium Agreement by all Consortium Members, (iii) to use their reasonable efforts and cooperate in good faith to arrange debt financing to support the Transaction, and (iv) to cooperate and proceed in good faith to negotiate and consummate the Transaction.

On January 27, 2014, the Consortium Members submitted the Proposal to the Board. In the Proposal, the Consortium Members proposed to acquire the Company in a going private transaction at a price of US$6.90 in cash per ADS (each representing two Class A Ordinary Shares) or $3.45 in cash per Class A or Class B Ordinary Share. According to the Proposal, the Consortium Members do not intend to sell their stake in the Company to any third party. SDG may consider selling additional shares of the Company to the Consortium. The Consortium Members intend to finance the Transaction through a combination of debt and equity financing. For a brief description of the financing plan, please refer to Item 3 of the Original 13D.

On January 27, 2014, SDG and  Primavera entered into a share purchase agreement (the “PV Share Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which SDG agreed to sell, and Primavera agreed to purchase, 28,959,276 Class A Ordinary Shares (the “PV Purchase Shares”) at US$2.7625 per Class A Ordinary Share (the “PV Purchase Price”) subject to the terms and conditions thereof. Pursuant to the PV Share Purchase Agreement, if (i) a going-private transaction occurs within one year of the closing date of the sale of PV Purchase Shares where Primavera is part of the buyer consortium and the price per share in the going-private transaction (“Going-private Price”) is higher than the PV Purchase Price, or (ii) a going-private transaction occurs within one year of the closing date of the sale of PV Purchase Shares where Primavera is not part of the buyer consortium due to its own decision or election without SDG’s written consent and the Going-private Price is higher than the PV Purchase Price, Primavera shall pay SDG the shortfall between the PV Purchase Price and the Going-private Price with respect to all PV Purchase Shares.  Pursuant to the PV Share Purchase Agreement, if a going-private transaction is not consummated within one year of the closing date of the sale of PV Purchase Shares solely due to SDG’s failure to vote in favor of such going-private transaction, SDG
 
 
-9-

 
 
shall pay to Primavera an amount equal to the PV Purchase Price. The purchase and sale of the PV Purchase Shares was completed on February 17, 2014.

On April 18, 2014, SDG and  Perfect World Co., Ltd. (“Perfect World”) entered into a share purchase agreement (the “PW Share Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which SDG agreed to sell, and Perfect World agreed to purchase, 30,326,005 Class A Ordinary Shares (the “PW Purchase Shares”) at US$3.2975 per Class A Ordinary Share (the “PW Purchase Price”) subject to the terms and conditions thereof. Pursuant to the PW Share Purchase Agreement, if (i) a going-private transaction occurs within one year of the closing date of the sale of PW Purchase Shares where Perfect World is part of the buyer consortium and the Going-private Price is higher than the PW Purchase Price, or (ii) a going-private transaction occurs within one year of the closing date of the sale of PW Purchase Shares where Perfect World is not part of the buyer consortium due to its own decision or election without SDG’s written consent and the Going-private Price is higher than the PW Purchase Price, Perfect World shall pay SDG the shortfall between the PW Purchase Price and the Going-private Price with respect to all PW Purchase Shares.  Pursuant to the PW Share Purchase Agreement, if a going-private transaction is not consummated within one year of the closing date of the sale of PW Purchase Shares solely due to SDG’s failure to vote in favor of such going-private transaction, SDG shall pay to Perfect World an amount equal to the PW Purchase Price.

Concurrently with the execution of the PW Share Purchase Agreement, Shanda Interactive, Primavera and Perfect World entered into an adherence agreement (the “PW Adherence Agreement”), pursuant to which Perfect World became a party to the Consortium Agreement and joined the Consortium. References to “Consortium” or “Consortium Members” after April 18, 2014 shall include Perfect World.

On April 25, 2014, FV Investment Holdings (“FV Investment”), which is an affiliate of FountainVest Partners, Shanda Interactive, Primavera and Perfect World entered into an adherence agreement (the “FV Adherence Agreement”), pursuant to which FV Investment became a party to the Consortium Agreement and joined the Consortium. References to “Consortium” or “Consortium Members” after April 25, 2014 shall include FV Investment.

If the Transaction is completed, the ADSs would be delisted from the NASDAQ Global Select Market and the Company’s obligations to file periodic report under the Exchange Act would be terminated.

Description of the Proposal, the Consortium Agreement, the PV Share Purchase Agreement, the PW Share Purchase Agreement, the PW Adherence Agreement and the FV Adherence Agreement in this Schedule 13D/A are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Proposal, the Consortium Agreement, the PV Share Purchase Agreement, the PW Share Purchase Agreement, the PW Adherence Agreement and the FV Adherence Agreement, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 7.02, 7.03, 7.04, 7.05, 7.06 and 7.07 hereto and incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.

In addition, consummation of the Transaction could result in one or more of the actions specified in clauses (a)-(j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D/A, including the acquisition or disposition of securities of the Company, a merger or other extraordinary transaction involving the Company, a change to the Board (as the board of the surviving company in the merger) to consist solely of persons to be designated by the Consortium Members, and a change in the Company’s memorandum and articles of association to reflect that the Company would become a privately held company. No assurance can be given that any proposal, any definitive agreement or any transaction relating to the Transaction will be entered into or be consummated.

The Proposal provides that no binding obligation shall arise with respect to the Transaction unless and until definitive agreements have been executed.

The descriptions of the principal terms of the Proposal, the Consortium Agreement, the PV Share Purchase Agreement, the PW Share Purchase Agreement, the PW Adherence Agreement and the FV Adherence Agreement under Item 4 are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.

5.
GOVERNING LAW
 
This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION
 
6.1
Any disputes, actions and proceedings against any Party or arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement shall be submitted to the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (“HKIAC”) and resolved in accordance with the Arbitration Rules of HKIAC in force at the relevant time and as may
 
 
-2-

 
 
be amended by this Section 6.1. The place of arbitration shall be Hong Kong. The official language of the arbitration shall be English and the tribunal shall consist of three arbitrators (each, an “Arbitrator”). The claimant(s), irrespective of number, shall nominate jointly one Arbitrator; the respondent(s), irrespective of number, shall nominate jointly one Arbitrator; and a third Arbitrator will be nominated jointly by the first two Arbitrators and shall serve as chairman of the Tribunal. In the event the claimant(s) or respondent(s) or the first two Arbitrators shall fail to nominate or agree the joint nomination of an Arbitrator or the third Arbitrator within the time limits specified by the Rules, such Arbitrator shall be appointed promptly by the HKIAC. The Tribunal shall have no authority to award punitive or other punitive-type damages. The award of the arbitration tribunal shall be final and binding upon the disputing parties. Any party to an award may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for enforcement of such award and, for purposes of the enforcement of such award, the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the jurisdiction of any court of competent jurisdiction and waive any defences to such enforcement based on lack of personal jurisdiction or inconvenient forum.
 
6.2
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties hereby consent to and agree that in addition to any recourse to arbitration as set out in this Section 6, any Party may, to the extent permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where application is made, seek an interim injunction from a court or other authority with competent jurisdiction and, notwithstanding that this Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New York, a court or authority hearing an application for injunctive relief may apply the procedural law of the jurisdiction where the court or other authority is located in determining whether to grant the interim injunction. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6.2 is only applicable to the seeking of interim injunctions and does not restrict the application of Section 6.1 in any way.
 
7.
SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE
 
Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the other Parties would be irreparably injured by a breach of this Agreement by it and that money damages alone are an inadequate remedy for actual or threatened breach of this Agreement. Accordingly, each Party shall be entitled to specific performance or injunctive or other equitable relief (without posting a bond or other security) to enforce or prevent any violations of any provision of this Agreement, in addition to all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity to such Party, including the right to claim money damages for breach of any provision of this Agreement.
