CUSIP No. 83084G 109 SCHEDULE 13D Amendment No. 1 Page 5 of 10

 

This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D (the “Amendment”) is being filed jointly by Mobi Joy Limited (“Mobi Joy”), Michael Tao Song (“Mr. Song”), and Xplane Ltd. (“Xplane,” together with Mobi Joy and Mr. Song, the “Reporting Persons”).

 

This Amendment amends and supplements the Statement of Beneficial Ownership on Schedule 13D filed jointly with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 24, 2016 (the “Original Schedule 13D”) by the Reporting Persons with respect to the common shares, par value $0.00005 per share (the “Common Shares”), including Common Shares represented by American Depositary Shares (each representing eight Common Shares), of Sky-mobi Limited (the “Issuer”). Capitalized terms used in this Amendment and not otherwise defined shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Original Schedule 13D.

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

Item 3 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following at the end thereof:

 

Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 22, 2016 (the "Merger Agreement"), by and among the Issuer, Amber Shining Investment Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands ("Parent"), and Power Rich Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, all of the outstanding shares of which are owned by Parent ("Merger Sub"), subject to the terms and conditions thereof, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Issuer (the "Merger"), with the Issuer continuing as the surviving corporation (the "Surviving Corporation") and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. The information disclosed in this paragraph is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, which is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 99.2 to the Form 6-K (as defined below) filed by the Issuer on August 23, 2016.

 

It is anticipated that, at a price of US$2.20 per American Depositary Share or approximately US$0.275 per Common Share, in cash, approximately US$35,000,000 will be expended in (i) acquiring 94,945,472 Common Shares owned by shareholders of the Issuer other than the Reporting Persons and (ii) settling outstanding options to purchase Common Shares and shares of restricted stock granted under the Company Incentive Plans (as defined in the Merger Agreement), in connection with the Merger. Pursuant to the commitment letter referenced in Item 4 below, and subject to the terms and conditions thereunder, the Merger will be financed with a loan facility to be provided to Merger Sub by China Merchants Bank Co., Ltd., New York Branch (the “Lender”).

 

The information set forth in or incorporated by reference in Item 4 of this Amendment is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 3.

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

 

Item 4 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following at the end thereof:

 

The descriptions of the Merger and the Merger Agreement set forth in Item 3 are incorporated by reference in their entirety into this Item 4.

 

Merger Agreement

 

On August 22, 2016, as announced in the Current Report on Form 6-K filed by the Issuer on August 23, 2016 ( the “Form 6-K”), the Issuer entered into the Merger Agreement. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Issuer, with the Issuer continuing as the Surviving Corporation. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each Common Share, including Common Shares represented by American Depositary Shares, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”) shall cease to be outstanding, cancelled, and cease to exist and the register of members of the Issuer will be amended accordingly. Each Common Share (other than the Excluded Shares and the Dissenting Shares, each as defined in the Merger Agreement) shall thereafter represent only the right to receive US$0.275 in cash per Common Share without interest. Each holder of Dissenting Shares shall be entitled to receive only the payment resulting from the procedure in Section 238 of the Cayman Companies Law with respect to such Dissenting Shares.

 

 

 

 

CUSIP No. 83084G 109 SCHEDULE 13D Amendment No. 1 Page 6 of 10

 

The Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties for a transaction of this type. The Merger Agreement also contains customary covenants providing that, among other things, (i) each of the parties use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the transactions to be consummated and (ii) the Issuer call and hold a general meeting of the Issuer’s shareholders for purposes of voting and approving the Merger Agreement (the “Company Shareholders’ Meeting”). The Merger Agreement also requires the Issuer to conduct its operations in all material respects according to its ordinary course of business consistent with past practice during the period between the date of the Merger Agreement and the earlier of the Effective Time and the termination of the Merger Agreement. The Issuer is subject to customary “no shop” restrictions on its ability to solicit alternative acquisition proposals from third parties and to provide information to and engage in discussions with third parties regarding alternative acquisition proposals, subject to certain exceptions in certain circumstances prior to the approval of the Merger Agreement by the shareholders of the Issuer.

 

The consummation of the Merger is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, including the approval of the Merger Agreement by holders of the Common Shares representing two-thirds or more of the outstanding Shares present and voting in person or by proxy as a single class at the Company Shareholders’ Meeting. The Merger Agreement may be terminated by the Issuer or Parent under certain circumstances, including if holders of more than 5% of Common Shares validly serve a notice of dissent. The Merger Agreement provides for the payment of a termination fee of US$1,000,000 by the Issuer to Parent if the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain conditions. The Merger Agreement also provides for the payment of a termination fee of US$2,000,000 by Parent to the Issuer (the “Parent Termination Fee”) if the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain conditions.

 

If the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are consummated, the Issuer will become a privately held company, and its American Depositary Shares would be deregistered under the Exchange Act and would be delisted from the NASDAQ Global Select Market.

 

Upon consummation of the Merger, the director(s) of Merger Sub at the Effective Time shall, from and after the Effective Time, be the director(s) of the Surviving Corporation, unless otherwise determined by Parent prior to the Effective Time, until their respective successor(s) have been duly elected or appointed and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the memorandum of association and articles of association of the Surviving Corporation.

 

Limited Guarantee

 

In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, on August 22, 2016, the Reporting Persons entered into a limited guarantee (the “Limited Guarantee”) with the Issuer, pursuant to which the Reporting Persons, severally and not jointly, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee to the Issuer, subject to certain conditions, the Parent Termination Fee and certain reimbursement and indemnification obligations of Parent under the Merger Agreement. The Reporting Persons’ payment obligations under the Limited Guarantee will not exceed US$2,000,000, other than certain reimbursement obligations thereunder. The Limited Guarantee will terminate on the earliest of (i) the Effective Time; (ii) in the case of a termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms in circumstances where the Parent Termination Fee is not payable pursuant to the Merger Agreement, upon such termination; and (iii) in the case of a termination of the Merger Agreement for which the Parent Termination Fee is payable pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the date falling ninety (90) days after such termination (subject to certain exceptions). The information disclosed in this paragraph is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Limited Guarantee, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 4 and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

 

Support Agreement

 

In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, on August 22, 2016, Parent and the Reporting Persons entered into a Support Agreement (the “Support Agreement”), pursuant to which, in connection with the consummation of the Merger, each Reporting Person agrees to (i) appoint Parent and any designee thereof as its proxy and attorney-in-fact and vote all of the Common Shares owned by such Reporting Person at the Company Shareholders’ Meeting in favor of the Merger, in each case upon the terms and conditions set forth therein; (ii) cancel such Common Shares owned by such Reporting Person (including Common Shares represented by American Depositary Shares) held thereby for no consideration in the Merger; and (iii) subscribe for newly issued shares of Parent at or immediately prior to the Effective Time. The information disclosed in this paragraph is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Support Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 5, and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

 

Debt Commitment Letter

 

In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, on August 22, 2016, the Lender issued a commitment letter (the “Debt Commitment Letter”) to Parent and Merger Sub, pursuant to which the Lender agrees to provide a senior secured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of US$40,000,000 to fund the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, subject to various customary terms and conditions contained in the Debt Commitment Letter. The information disclosed in this paragraph is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Debt Commitment Letter, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 6, and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

 

Except as set forth in this Item 4 or as would occur upon completion of any of the matters discussed herein, none of the Reporting Persons have any present plans or proposals which relate to or would result in any of the actions specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to time, formulate other purposes, plans or proposals regarding the Issuer, or any actions that could involve one or more of the types of transaction or have one or more of the results described in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

EXECUTION VERSION

 

LIMITED GUARANTEE

 

This Limited Guarantee, dated as of August 22, 2016 (this “Limited Guarantee”), is made by Michael Tao Song (“Mr. Song”), Mobi Joy Limited (“Mobi Joy) and Xplane Ltd. (“Xplane,” and each of Mr. Song and Mobi Joy, a “Guarantor” and collectively, the “Guarantors”), in favor of Sky-mobi Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Guaranteed Party”). Each capitalized term used and not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to it in the Merger Agreement (as defined below), except as otherwise provided herein.

 

1.             LIMITED GUARANTEE.

 

(a)           To induce the Guaranteed Party to enter into that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”) among Amber Shining Investment Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the Laws of the Cayman Islands (“Parent”), Power Rich Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the Laws of the Cayman Islands and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), and the Guaranteed Party, pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Guaranteed Party (the “Merger”), each of the Guarantors, intending to be legally bound, hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to the Guaranteed Party, severally and not jointly, as a primary obligor and not merely as surety to the Guaranteed Party, the due and punctual payment when due of such percentage, as set forth opposite such Guarantor’s name on Schedule A hereto (such percentage, with respect to such Guarantor being such Guarantor’s “Guaranteed Percentage”), of all of the payment obligations of Parent and Merger Sub under the Merger Agreement in respect of (i) the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to Section 9.03(b) of the Merger Agreement and (ii) reasonable and documented indemnification, reimbursement and expense obligations of Parent under Section 7.15 of the Merger Agreement, if, as and when such obligations become payable and due in accordance with the terms thereof (as such payment obligations may be modified, amended, waived or terminated in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, the “Guaranteed Obligations”); provided that in no event, other than as expressly set forth in Section 1(c), shall the Guarantors’ aggregate liabilities under this Limited Guarantee exceed US$2,000,000 (the “Cap”), it being understood that this Limited Guarantee may not be enforced against the Guarantors without giving effect to the Cap (and to the provisions of Sections 7 and 8 hereof). The Guaranteed Party hereby agrees that, other than as expressly set forth in Section 1(c), in no event shall the Guarantors be required to pay any Person under, in respect of, or in connection with, this Limited
Guarantee an amount in excess of the Cap or, with respect to each Guarantor, an amount in excess of such amount as set forth opposite such Guarantor’s name on Schedule A hereto (such amount, with respect to such Guarantor being such Guarantor’s “Guaranteed Amount”). The Guaranteed Party acknowledges that the Guarantors shall not have any obligation or liability to the Guaranteed Party relating to, arising out of or in connection with this Limited Guarantee or the Merger Agreement other than as expressly set forth herein. This Limited Guarantee may be enforced for the payment of money only. All payments hereunder shall be made in lawful money of the United States, in immediately available funds. The Guarantors acknowledge that the Guaranteed Party entered into the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement partly in reliance upon the execution of this Limited Guarantee.

 

 

 

 

(b)           Each Guarantor promises and undertakes to make all payments hereunder free and clear of any deduction, offset, defense, claim or counterclaim of any kind. If Parent or Merger Sub fails to discharge any Guaranteed Obligations when due, then then all of the Guarantors’ liabilities to the Guaranteed Party hereunder in respect of such Guaranteed Obligations shall become immediately due and payable and each Guarantor shall, on the Guaranteed Party’s demand, forthwith pay to the Guaranteed Party such Guarantor’s Guaranteed Percentage of the Guaranteed Obligations (up to such Guarantor’s Guaranteed Amount), and the Guaranteed Party may at any time and from time to time, at the Guaranteed Party’s option, and so long as Parent or Merger Sub has failed to discharge the Guaranteed Obligations, take any and all actions available hereunder or under applicable Law to collect such Guarantor’s liabilities hereunder in respect of its Guaranteed Percentage of the Guaranteed Obligations, subject to such Guarantor’s Guaranteed Amount.

 

(c)           Each Guarantor agrees, severally but not jointly, to pay on demand its Guaranteed Percentage of all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by the Guaranteed Party in connection with the enforcement of its rights hereunder in the event (i) the Guarantors assert in any arbitration, litigation or other proceeding that this Limited Guarantee is illegal, invalid or unenforceable in accordance with its terms and the Guaranteed Party prevails in such arbitration, litigation or other proceeding or (ii) the Guarantors fail or refuse to make any payment to the Guaranteed Party hereunder when due and payable and it is determined judicially or by arbitration that the Guarantors are required to make such payment hereunder, which obligations will be in addition to the Guaranteed Obligations and not subject to the Cap or the Guaranteed Amount set forth in Section 1(a).

 

(d)           In furtherance of the foregoing, each Guarantor acknowledges that the Guaranteed Party may, in its sole discretion, bring and prosecute a separate action or actions against such Guarantor for the full amount of such Guarantor’s Guaranteed Percentage of the Guaranteed Obligations (subject to such Guarantor’s Guaranteed Amount), regardless of whether any such action is brought against Parent or Merger Sub or whether Parent or Merger Sub is joined in any such action or actions.

 

2.             NATURE OF GUARANTEE. Each Guarantor’s liability hereunder is absolute, unconditional, irrevocable and continuing irrespective of any modification, amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from the Merger Agreement that may be agreed to by Parent or Merger Sub. Without limiting the foregoing, the Guaranteed Party shall not be obligated to file any claim relating to the Guaranteed Obligations in the event that Parent or Merger Sub becomes subject to a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding, and the failure of the Guaranteed Party to so file shall not affect such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder. In the event that any payment from such Guarantor to the Guaranteed Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be, and is, returned to such Guarantor for any reason whatsoever, such Guarantor shall remain liable hereunder with respect to its Guaranteed Percentage of the Guaranteed Obligations as if such payment had not been made. This Limited Guarantee is an unconditional guarantee of payment and not of collection. This Limited Guarantee is a primary and original obligation of each Guarantor (subject to such Guarantor’s Guaranteed Amount) and is not merely the creation of a surety relationship, and the Guaranteed Party shall not be required to proceed against Parent or Merger Sub first before proceeding against any Guarantor hereunder.

3.             CHANGES IN OBLIGATIONS, CERTAIN WAIVERS.

 

(a)           Each Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Party may, in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to time, without notice to or further consent of such Guarantor, extend the time of payment of any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations, and may also make any agreement with Parent or Merger Sub, for the extension, renewal, payment, compromise, discharge or release thereof, in whole or in part, or for any modification of the terms thereof or of any other agreement between the Guaranteed Party and Parent, Merger Sub or such other Person without in any way impairing or affecting such Guarantor’s obligations under this Limited Guarantee or affecting the validity or enforceability of this Limited Guarantee. Each Guarantor agrees that the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by: (i) the failure or delay, subject to Section 7, on the part of the Guaranteed Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against Parent, Merger Sub, or any other Person interested in the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (ii) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any recession, waiver, compromise, consolidation or other amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of the Merger Agreement made in accordance with the terms thereof; (iii) any addition, substitution, legal or equitable discharge or release (in the case of a discharge or release, other than a discharge or release of such Guarantor with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations as a result of payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations in accordance with their terms, or as a result of defenses to the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations that would be available to Parent under the Merger Agreement) of any Person now or hereafter liable with respect to any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise interested in the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (iv) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of Parent, Merger Sub or any other Person now or hereafter liable with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise interested in the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (v) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting Parent, Merger Sub or any other Person now or hereafter liable with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise interested in the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (vi) except as expressly provided herein, the existence of any claim, set-off or other right which such Guarantor may have at any time against Parent, Merger Sub or the Guaranteed Party, whether in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise (other than as a result of defenses to the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations that would be available to Parent under the Merger Agreement); (vii) any other act or omission that may in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of, or to, such Guarantor or otherwise operate as a discharge of such Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than a discharge of such Guarantor with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations as a result of payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations in accordance with their terms, or as a result of defenses to the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations that would be available to Parent under the Merger Agreement); (viii) the adequacy of any other means the Guaranteed Party may have of obtaining payment related to the Guaranteed Obligations or (ix) the value, genuineness, validity, regularity, illegality or enforceability of the Merger Agreement. Each Guarantor hereby expressly waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of any Law which would otherwise require any election of remedies by the Guaranteed Party. Each Guarantor waives promptness, diligence, notice of the acceptance of this Limited Guarantee and of the Guaranteed Obligations, presentment, demand for payment, notice of non-performance, default, dishonor and protest, notice of any Guaranteed Obligations incurred and all other notices of any kind (other than notices expressly required to be provided to Parent or Merger Sub pursuant to the Merger Agreement or this Limited Guarantee), all defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium Law or other similar Law now or hereafter in effect or any right to require the marshalling of assets of Parent or Merger Sub or any other Person now or hereafter liable with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise interested in the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and all suretyship defenses generally. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and that the waivers set forth in this Limited Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

(b)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Limited Guarantee but subject to Section 3(a)(v), the Guaranteed Party hereby agrees that the Guarantors shall have all defenses to the payment of their obligations under this Limited Guarantee (which in any event shall be subject to the Cap) that would be available to Parent and/or Merger Sub under the Merger Agreement with respect to the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, as well as any defenses in respect of any fraud or knowing and intentional breach of the Guaranteed Party or its Affiliates, including, without limitation, to the extent Parent and Merger Sub are relieved of all or any portion of their respective payment obligations under the Merger Agreement, by satisfaction thereof or pursuant to any other agreement with the Guaranteed Party, in which such case the Guarantors shall be similarly relieved, only to such corresponding extent, of their obligations under this Limited Guarantee.

 

(c)           Each and every right, remedy and power hereby granted to the Guaranteed Party or allowed it by Law shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other, and may be exercised by the Guaranteed Party at any time or from time to time. The Guaranteed Party shall not have any obligation to proceed at any time or in any manner against, or exhaust any or all of the Guaranteed Party’s rights against, Parent or Merger Sub for any Guaranteed Obligations prior to proceeding against any Guarantor hereunder, and the failure or delay by the Guaranteed Party to pursue or enforce any rights or remedies against, or assert any claim or demand against, Parent or Merger Sub shall not relieve any Guarantor of its liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Guaranteed Party.

Subject to Section 3(c), this Limited Guarantee may not be revoked or terminated and shall remain in full force and effect, and shall continue to be binding on the Guarantors and their successors or assigns until the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full.

8.             NO RECOURSE. Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this Limited Guarantee or any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Limited Guarantee, the Guaranteed Party covenants, agrees and acknowledges that no Person other than the Guarantors (and any permitted assignees hereof) has any obligations hereunder and that, notwithstanding that any Guarantor may be a partnership, limited liability company or corporation, the Guaranteed Party has no right of recovery under this Limited Guarantee or in any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation, against, and no personal liability shall attach to, the former, current or future equity holders, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors, representatives, Affiliates (other than any assignee under Section 5), members, managers, or general or limited partners of any of the Guarantors, Parent, Merger Sub or any former, current or future equity holder, controlling person, director, officer, employee, general or limited partner, member, manager, Affiliate (other than any assignee under Section 5), agent, advisor, or representative of any of the foregoing (each a “Non-Recourse Party”), whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate veil, by or through a claim by or on behalf of Parent or Merger Sub against any Non-Recourse Party, by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute, regulation or applicable Law, or otherwise, and the Guaranteed Party further covenants, agrees and acknowledges that the only rights of recovery and claims that the Guaranteed Party has in respect of the Merger Agreement, this Limited Guarantee or the transactions contemplated thereby are its rights to recover from, and assert claims against, (a) Parent and Merger Sub and their respective successors and assigns under and to the extent expressly provided in the Merger Agreement, and (b) the Guarantors (but not any Non-Recourse Party) and each of their successors and assigns under and to the extent expressly provided in this Limited Guarantee and subject to the Cap and other limitations described herein (claims against (a) and (b) collectively, the “Retained Claims”); provided that in the event any Guarantor (x) consolidates with or merges with any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving entity of such consolidation or merger or (y) transfers or conveys all or a substantial portion of its properties and other assets to any Person such that the aggregate sum of such Guarantor’s remaining net assets plus uncalled capital is less than an amount equal to its Guaranteed Amount as of the time of such transfer, then, and in each such case, the Guaranteed Party may seek recourse, whether by the enforcement of any judgment or assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding or by virtue of any statute, regulation or other applicable Law, against such continuing or surviving entity or such Person, as the case may be, but only if such Guarantor fails to satisfy its payment obligations hereunder and only to the extent of the liability of such Guarantor hereunder. The Guaranteed Party acknowledges and agrees that Parent and Merger Sub have no assets other than certain contract rights and cash in a de minimis amount and that no additional funds are expected to be contributed to Parent or Merger Sub unless and until the Closing occurs. Recourse against the Guarantors under and pursuant to the terms of this Limited Guarantee shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Guaranteed Party and all of its Affiliates against the Guarantors and the Non-Recourse Parties in respect of any liabilities or obligations arising under, or in connection with, the Merger Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, including by piercing of the corporate veil, by a claim on or behalf of Parent or Merger Sub. Nothing set forth in this Limited Guarantee shall confer or give or shall be construed to confer or give to any Person other than the Guaranteed Party (including any Person acting in a representative capacity) any rights or remedies against any Person including the Guarantors, except as expressly set forth herein. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Guarantors, Parent, Merger Sub or their respective successors and assigns under the Merger Agreement and this Limited Guarantee shall be Non-Recourse Parties.

9.             GOVERNING LAW; DISPUTE RESOLUTION.

 

(a)           This Limited Guarantee shall be interpreted, construed and governed by and in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York without regard to the conflict of Law principles thereof that would subject such matter to the Laws of another jurisdiction. Any disputes, actions and proceedings against any party or arising out of or in any way relating to this Limited Guarantee shall be submitted to the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (“HKIAC”) and resolved in accordance with the Arbitration Rules of HKIAC (the “Rules”) in force at the relevant time and as may be amended by this Section 9. The place of arbitration shall be Hong Kong. The official language of the arbitration shall be English and the arbitration 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 arbitration 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 arbitration 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 defenses to such enforcement based on lack of personal jurisdiction or inconvenient forum.

 

(b)           Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereby consent to and agree that in addition to any recourse to arbitration as set out in this Section 9, 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 Limited Guarantee 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 9(b) is only applicable to the seeking of interim injunctions and does not otherwise restrict the application of Section 9(a) in any way.

 

10.           COUNTERPARTS. This Limited Guarantee shall not be effective until it has been executed and delivered by all parties hereto. This Limited Guarantee may be executed by facsimile or electronic transmission in pdf format, and in one or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

11.           THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARIES. This Limited Guarantee shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and nothing express or implied in this Limited Guarantee is intended to, or shall, confer upon any other Person any benefits, rights or remedies under or by reason of, or any rights to enforce or cause the Guaranteed Party to enforce, the obligations set forth herein.

 

12.           MISCELLANEOUS.

 

(a)           This Limited Guarantee constitutes the entire agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior discussions, negotiations, proposals, undertakings, understandings and agreements, whether written or oral, among the Guarantors or any of their Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Guaranteed Party or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand. No amendment, supplementation, modification or waiver of this Limited Guarantee or any provision hereof shall be enforceable unless approved by the Guaranteed Party and the Guarantors in writing. No waiver by any party of any breach or violation of, or default under, this Limited Guarantee, whether intentional or not, will be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent breach, violation or default hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence. Subject to Section 7, no delay or omission on the part of any party in exercising any right, power or remedy under this Limited Guarantee will operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by any party of any right, remedy or power hereunder preclude any other or future exercise of any right, remedy or power hereunder. The Guaranteed Party and its Affiliates are not relying upon any prior or contemporaneous statement, undertaking, understanding, agreement, representation or warranty, whether written or oral, made by or on behalf of the Guarantors or any Non-Recourse Party in connection with this Limited Guarantee except as expressly set forth herein by the Guarantors. The Guarantors and their Affiliates are not relying upon any prior or contemporaneous statement, undertaking, understanding, agreement, representation or warranty, whether written or oral, made by or on behalf of the Guaranteed Party in connection with this Limited Guarantee except as expressly set forth herein by the Guaranteed Party.

 

(b)           Any term or provision of this Limited Guarantee that is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be, as to such jurisdiction, ineffective solely to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction; provided, however, that this Limited Guarantee may not be enforced without giving effect to the limitation of the amount payable by the Guarantors hereunder to the Cap provided in Section 1 hereof and to the provisions of Sections 7 and 8 hereof. Each party hereto covenants and agrees that it shall not assert, and shall cause its respective Affiliates and representatives not to assert, that this Limited Guarantee or any part hereof is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in accordance with its terms.

Section 6.2           Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the Transactions be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

 

Section 6.3           Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Merger Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter and the Limited Guarantee constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

 

Section 6.4           Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that this Agreement shall be enforceable by all available remedies at law or in equity. Each party acknowledges and agrees that monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy in the event that any covenant or agreement in this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its terms, and therefore agrees that, in addition to and without limiting any other remedy or right available to the parties, each party will have the right to seek an injunction, temporary restraining order or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction enjoining any such breach and enforcing specifically the terms and provisions hereof. Each party agrees not to oppose the granting of such relief in the event a court determines that such a breach has occurred, and to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy.

At any time prior to the Expiration Time, any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Shareholders and Parent, or in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by a party hereto in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder.

 

Section 6.6           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.

 

Section 6.7           Dispute Resolution.

 

(a)          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 (the “Rules”) and as may be amended by this Section 6.7.

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 to 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 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 defenses to such enforcement based on lack of personal jurisdiction or inconvenient forum.

 

(b)          Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereby consent to and agree that in addition to any recourse to arbitration as set out in this Section 6.7, 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 6.7(b) is only applicable to the seeking of interim injunctions and does not restrict the application of Section 6.7(a) in any way.

Commitment Letter

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

You have advised China Merchants Bank Co., Ltd., New York Branch (“CMB NY”, “we”, “us” the “Commitment Party” or the “Lender”) that Amber Shining Investment Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Parent”), formed at the direction of and controlled by Mr. Song Tao, Xplane Limited and Mobi Joy Limited (together the “Sponsors”), intends to consummate through Power Rich Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Merger Sub” and together with Parent, “you”), the Transactions described in the Transaction Description attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Transaction Description”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Transaction Description and the Summary of Principal Terms and Conditions attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Term Sheet”). This commitment letter, the Transaction Description and the Term Sheet, are collectively referred to as the “Commitment Letter.”

 

1.Commitments.

 

In connection with the Transactions, CMB NY is pleased to advise you of its commitment to provide 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Facility, subject only to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 5 hereof, the section entitled “Conditions to the Borrowing” in Exhibit B hereto (limited on the Closing Date (as defined below) as indicated therein) and in Exhibit C hereto. “Closing Date” is the date on which the Acquisition has been consummated and the funding under the Term Facility has occurred.

 

 1

 

 

2.Titles and Roles.

 

It is agreed that the Commitment Party will act as sole arranger and lender under the Term Facility. You agree that no other arrangers, agents or managers will be appointed, and no other titles will be awarded unless you and the Commitment Party shall so agree.

 

3.Information.

 

You hereby represent and warrant that (a) all written information and written data (such information and data, other than (i) customary financial estimates, forecasts and other projections (the “Projections”) and forward looking statements and (ii) information of a general economic or industry specific nature, the “Information”) (in the case of Information regarding the Target and its subsidiaries and its and their respective businesses, to the best of your knowledge), that has been or will be made available to the Commitment Party directly or indirectly by you, the Target or by any of your or their respective subsidiaries or representatives, in each case, on your or their behalf in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, is or will be, when furnished and taken as a whole, correct in all material respects and does not or will not, when furnished and taken as a whole, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made (after giving effect to all supplements and updates thereto provided to the Commitment Party from time to time) and (b) the Projections that have been or will be made available to the Commitment Party by you or by any of your subsidiaries or representatives, in each case, on your behalf in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby have been, or will be, prepared in good faith based upon assumptions that are believed by you to be reasonable at the time prepared and at the time the related Projections are so furnished to the Commitment Party; it being understood that the Projections are as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts, the Projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond your control, that no assurance can be given that any particular Projections will be realized and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Projections may differ significantly from the projected results and such differences may be material. You agree that, if at any time prior to the Closing Date, you become aware that any of the representations and warranties in the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect if the Information and the Projections were being furnished, and such representations and warranties were being made, at such time, then you will (or, with respect to the Information and Projections relating to the Target and its subsidiaries, will use your commercially reasonable efforts to) promptly supplement the Information and the Projections such that such representations and warranties are correct in all material respects under those circumstances (or, in the case of the Information relating to the Target and its subsidiaries and its and their respective businesses, to the best of your knowledge, such representations and warranties are correct in all material respects under those circumstances). In arranging the Term Facility, the Commitment Party (i) will be entitled to use and rely on the Information and the Projections without responsibility for independent verification thereof and (ii) assume no responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the Information or the Projections.

 

4.Fees.

 

As consideration for CMB’s commitment hereunder, you agree to pay (or cause to be paid) a commitment letter fee (the “Commitment Letter Fee”) equal to $·, which fee shall be earned, due and payable on or prior to the date hereof. In addition, you agree to pay to CMB, for its own account an arrangement fee (the “Arrangement Fee”) in an aggregate amount equal to $·. The Arrangement Fee is fully earned and will be due and payable on the Closing Date.

 

 2

 

 

In the event that during the 12-month period commencing on the date hereof, you or any of your affiliates consummate the Transaction or any similar transaction that results in the acquisition of all or substantially all of the equity interest of the Target (any such transaction, an “Alternate Transaction”), in each case with one or more bank or other syndicated credit facilities or other debt financing provided by one or more financial institutions or institutional investors in lieu of the Term Facility, you agree that, unless (i) CMB has otherwise terminated the Commitment Letter (other than due to non-payment of the Commitment Letter Fee) or declined to provide the Term Facility on the terms and conditions of the Commitment Letter, or (ii) has been given a bona fide opportunity to provide, place, arrange or underwrite such financing on the same terms and conditions as other lender(s) acting in such role, and has turned down such opportunity, then you will pay (or cause to be paid) to CMB an amount (the “Break-up Fee”) equal to % of the Arrangement Fee that would have been payable to CMB as provided above as if the Closing Date and full funding under the Term Facility occurred immediately upon the consummation of the Acquisition or such Alternate Transaction with the proceeds of such financing. The Break-up Fee shall be payable immediately upon the consummation of the Alternate Transaction with the proceeds of such financing. This paragraph will apply regardless of whether you have voluntarily terminated our obligations under the Commitment Letter.

 

All fees payable pursuant to this Section 4: (a) are in addition to and not creditable against any other fee payable to CMB, and/or any of its affiliates (including fees payable pursuant to any other agreements or for acting in any other capacities), (b) are, once paid, not refundable under any circumstances, (c) are in addition to any cash reimbursement required to be paid to CMB pursuant to this Commitment Letter for its reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred in respect of the Transaction, (d) will be free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future applicable taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings and all liabilities with respect thereto (with appropriate gross-up for withholding taxes), (e) will not be subject to counterclaim or set-off for, or be otherwise affected by, any claim or dispute relating to any other matter and (f) will be paid in U.S. dollars and in immediately available funds.

 

5.Conditions.

 

The commitment of the Lender hereunder to fund the Term Facility on the Closing Date and the agreement of the Commitment Party to perform the services described herein are subject solely to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the section entitled “Conditions to the Borrowing” in Exhibit B hereto (limited on the Closing Date as indicated therein) and in Exhibit C hereto, in each case subject to the Limited Conditionality Provisions as defined below, and upon satisfaction (or waiver by the Commitment Party) of such conditions, the funding of the Term Facility shall occur.

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Commitment Letter (including each of the exhibits attached hereto), the Loan Documents or any other letter agreement or other undertaking concerning the financing of the Transactions to the contrary, (i) the only representations and warranties the accuracy of which shall be a condition to the availability and funding of the Term Facility on the Closing Date shall be (a) such of the representations and warranties made by the Target or by the Target on behalf of its subsidiaries in the Acquisition Agreement as are material to the interests of the Lenders, but only to the extent that you (or your affiliates) have the right (taking into account any applicable cure provisions) to terminate your (and/or its) obligations under the Acquisition Agreement or decline to consummate the Acquisition (in each case, in accordance with the terms thereof) as a result of a breach of such representations and warranties in the Acquisition Agreement (to such extent, the “Specified Acquisition Agreement Representations”) and (b) the Specified Representations (as defined below), and (ii) the terms of the Loan Documents shall be in a form such that they do not impair the availability or funding of the Term Facility on the Closing Date if the conditions set forth in the section entitled “Conditions to the Borrowing” in Exhibit B hereto (limited on the Closing Date as indicated therein) and in Exhibit C hereto are satisfied (or waived by the Commitment Party); provided that to the extent any security interest in any Collateral is not or cannot be provided and/or perfected prior to the Effective Time solely because the directors or managers of the Target have not, prior to the Effective Time, authorized the execution and delivery of the documents necessary to provide or perfect such security interest, then the provision and/or perfection of a security interest in such Collateral shall not constitute a condition precedent to the availability of the Term Facility on the Closing Date, but instead shall be required to be delivered on the Closing Date upon the occurrence of the Effective Time. For purposes hereof, “Specified Representations” means, the applicable representations and warranties applicable to Borrower to be set forth in the Loan Documents relating to organizational existence; power and authority, due authorization, execution, delivery and enforceability, Federal Reserve margin regulations; the Investment Company Act; Patriot Act and sanctions; FCPA or anti-money laundering laws; the use of the proceeds of the Term Facility not violating the Patriot Act, OFAC, sanctions, FCPA or anti-money laundering laws; no conflict with the organizational documents, or material laws; and, subject to the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, creation, validity and perfection of security interests in the Collateral.
