(the “Investor”), a company incorporated in the PRC, CNshangquan Limited (the “Investor Shareholder”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Investor incorporated in the British Virgin Islands, Sanpower Group Co., Ltd, a company incorporated in the PRC (“Sanpower”) and Mr. Yafei Yuan, a PRC citizen (“Mr. Yuan”, and together with the Investor, the Investor Shareholder and Sanpower, the “Reporting Persons”).

 

This Amendment No. 1 amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D filed jointly with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 29, 2014 (the “Schedule 13D”) by the Reporting Persons with respect to the ordinary Shares, par value $0.0001 (the “Shares”), including the Shares represented by American Depositary Shares (the “ADSs”), of Mecox Lane Limited, a Cayman Islands corporation (the “Issuer”).

 

Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Considerations.

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

 

The Reporting Persons, together with Leading Capital Co. Ltd. and its affiliates (“Leading Capital”, collectively with the Investor Shareholder, the “Consortium”) anticipate that, at the price per Share set forth in the Proposal (as described in Item 4 below), approximately US$18,818,581 would be expended in acquiring 164,662,586 Shares owned by shareholders of the Issuer other than the Reporting Persons (“Publicly Held Shares”).

 

It is anticipated that the funding for the acquisition of the Publicly Held Shares will be provided by equity financing only in the form of cash from the Consortium.

 

 

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction

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

 

On July 21, 2015, the Investor Shareholder entered into a consortium agreement with Leading Capital, pursuant to which the Consortium will cooperate in good faith in connection with the acquisition transaction (the “Transaction”) with respect to the Issuer as contemplated by the Proposal (as defined below).  The Consortium Agreement provides, among other things, for: cooperation in arranging financing; engaging advisors; cooperation in obtaining applicable governmental, statutory, regulatory or other approvals, licenses, waivers or exemptions for the consummation of the Transaction; and cooperation in preparing definitive documentation with respect to the Transaction.  During the period beginning on the date of the Consortium Agreement and ending on the earlier of (i) the 12-month anniversary of the date of the Consortium Agreement, or (ii) the occurrence of termination events as specified therein, members of the Consortium have agreed to work exclusively with each other with respect to the Transaction.

 

On July 21, 2015, the Consortium submitted a non-binding proposal (the “Proposal”) to the Issuer’s board of directors for the Transaction.  Under the Proposal, the Consortium proposes to acquire, through an acquisition vehicle to be formed by it, all of the Publicly Held Shares for US$4.00 per ADS, or approximately US$0.114 per Share in cash, representing a premium of 17.6% to the Issuer’s closing price on July 20, 2015.  The Consortium intends to finance the Transaction in the form of cash.

 

The Proposal also provides that, among other things, the Consortium will (a) conduct customary legal, financial, and accounting due diligence on the Issuer, and (b) negotiate and execute definitive agreements with respect to the Transaction that will provide for representations, warranties, covenants and conditions which are typical, customary and appropriate for transactions of this type.  The Consortium expects that the Transaction can be closed in a highly expedited manner.

 

If the Transaction is completed, the Shares would become eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Act and would be delisted from the NASDAQ Global Select Market.

THIS CONSORTIUM AGREEMENT is made as of July 21, 2015 (the “Agreement”), by and between CNshangquan Limited (“CNshangquan”), and Leading Capital Co. Ltd.

WHEREAS, the Parties propose to undertake an acquisition transaction (the “Transaction”) with respect to Mecox Lane Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market (the “Target”), pursuant to which the Target would be delisted from NASDAQ Global Select Market and deregistered under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”);

 

WHEREAS, (a) in connection with the Transaction, the Parties propose to form a new company (“Holdco”) under the laws of the Cayman Islands, and to cause Holdco to form a direct, wholly owned subsidiary (“Merger Sub”) under the laws of the Cayman Islands, and (b) at the closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”), the Parties intend that Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Target, with the Target being the surviving company and becoming a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Holdco (the “Surviving Company”);

 

WHEREAS, on the date hereof, the Parties will submit a joint, non-binding proposal, a copy of which is attached hereto as Schedule A (the “Proposal”), to the board of directors of Target (the “Target Board”) in connection with the Transaction; and

 

WHEREAS, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Parties will cooperate and participate in (a) the evaluation of the Target, including if necessary, conducting due diligence of the Target and its business, (b) discussions regarding the Proposal with the Target, and (c) the negotiation of the terms of definitive documentation in connection with the Transaction (in which negotiations the Parties expect that the Target will be represented by a special committee of independent and disinterested directors of the Target Board (the “Special Committee”), including an agreement and plan of merger among Holdco, Merger Sub and the Target in form and substance to be agreed by the Parties (the “Merger Agreement”), which shall be subject to the approval of the shareholders of the Target.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and of the mutual agreements and covenants set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

 

1.                                      Proposal; Debt Financing; Holdco Ownership

 

1.1          Participation in Transaction.  The Parties agree to participate in the Transaction on the terms set forth in this Agreement.

The Board of Directors
Mecox Lane Limited (the “Company”)
Room 302, Qilai Building, No. 889 Yishan Road

People’s Republic of China

 

Dear Sirs and Madams:

 

We, CNshangquan Limited (“CNshangquan”), together with Leading Capital Co. Ltd. (“Leading Capital”, collectively with CNshangquan, the “Consortium Members”) are pleased to submit this preliminary non-binding proposal to acquire all of the outstanding ordinary shares of the Company not already owned by us in a going private transaction (the “Transaction”) described below.

 

We believe our proposal provides a very attractive opportunity to the Company’s shareholders. Our proposal represents a premium of approximately 17.6% to the Company’s closing price on July 20, 2015. We are confident that the Transaction can be closed on a highly expedited basis as outlined in this letter.

 

Set forth below are the key terms of our proposal.

 

1.              Consortium. The Consortium Members have entered into a consortium agreement, pursuant to which we will form an acquisition vehicle for the purpose of implementing the Transaction, and have agreed to work with each other exclusively pursuing the completion of the Transaction. The Consortium Members are interested only in pursuing the Transaction and are not interested in selling their shares in any other transaction involving the Company.

 

2.              Purchase Price. The purchase price payable will be US$4.00 per American Depositary Share (“ADSs,” each ADS representing thirty-five ordinary shares of the Company) or approximately US$0.114 per ordinary share in cash, in each case other than for the ADSs or ordinary shares held by directly or indirectly by us.

 

3.              Financing. We intend to finance the Transaction with equity capital. Equity financing will be provided by the Consortium Members, in the form of cash and rollover equity in the Company, and from any additional equity investor who may be admitted as a consortium member. We are confident that we can timely secure adequate financing to consummate the Transaction.

 

4.              Due Diligence. We believe that we will be in a position to complete customary legal, financial and accounting due diligence for the Transaction in a timely manner and in parallel with negotiation of transaction agreements.

 

5.              Definitive Agreements. We have engaged Gibson Dunn & Crutcher LLP as our international legal counsel and are prepared to promptly negotiate and finalize definitive agreements (the “Definitive Agreements”) in respect of the Transaction.  These agreements will provide for representations, warranties, covenants and conditions which are typical, customary and appropriate for transaction of this type.

 



 

6.              Process. Given CNshangquan’s involvement in the Transaction, we believe it is prudent and in the best interests of the Company for the Company’s Board of Directors to establish a special committee of independent directors to consider the Transaction (the “Special Committee”). We also expect that the Special Committee would retain independent advisors, to assist it in its work. In considering our offer, you should be aware that we are interested only in acquiring the outstanding shares of the Company that we do not already beneficially own, and that we do not intend to sell our stake in the Company to a third party.

 

7.              Confidentiality. The Consortium Members will, as required by law, promptly file a Schedule 13D and/or amendment thereof with the Securities and Exchange Commission to disclose this letter. We are sure you will agree, however, that it is in all of our interests to ensure that we otherwise proceed in a strictly confidential manner, unless otherwise required by law, until we have executed Definitive Agreements or terminated our discussions.  Until a confidentiality agreement is signed, any written news releases by the Company or us pertaining to the Transaction shall be reviewed and approved by the Company and ourselves prior to their release, subject to any requirements of law.

 

8.              About Leading Capital. Leading Capital is a leading China-focused asset fund manager with US$1.5 billion of assets under management. Leading Capital’s investments target high growth companies in China in the consumer, environmental, electronic information, healthcare, modern agriculture, and high-end manufacturing sectors.

 

9.              No Binding Commitment. This proposal is not a binding offer, agreement or agreement to make a binding offer or agreement at any point in the future. This letter is a preliminary indication of interest by the Consortium Members and does not contain all matters upon which agreement must be reached in order to consummate the proposed Transaction, nor does it create any binding rights or obligations in favor of any person. The parties will be bound only upon the execution of the Definitive Agreements.

 

10.       Governing Law. This letter shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York.

 

In closing, we would like to express our commitment to working with you to bring this Transaction to a successful and timely conclusion. Should you have any questions regarding this proposal, please do not hesitate to contact us. We look forward to hearing from you.

 

Sincerely,
