1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), jointly by the following persons (each, a "Filing Person," and collectively, the "Filing Persons"): (a) Perfect World Co., Ltd., an
exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the "Company"), the issuer of the ordinary shares, consisting of Class A ordinary shares and
Class B ordinary shares, par value US$0.0001 per share (each, a "Share"), including the Shares represented by the American depositary shares ("ADSs"), each representing five Class B
ordinary shares of the Company, that is subject to the transaction pursuant to Rule 13e-3 under the Exchange Act; (b) Mr. Michael Yufeng Chi, the founder and chairman of the board
of directors the Company (the "Chairman"); (c) Perfect Human Holding Company Limited, a British Virgin Islands company controlled by the Chairman ("Perfect Human"); (d) Perfect
Peony Holding Company Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands ("Parent") and a wholly owned subsidiary of Perfect Human; and
(e) Perfect World Merger Company Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent
("Merger Sub"). This Amendment amends and restates in its entirety information set forth in the Transaction Statement.
On
April 26, 2015, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the "Merger Agreement") providing for the merger of Merger Sub with and
into the Company (the "Merger"), with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation after the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.
If
the Merger is consummated, at the effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time"), each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be cancelled and
cease to exist in exchange for the right to receive US$4.04 and each issued and outstanding ADS will be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive US$20.20, in each case, in cash, without interest
and net of any applicable withholding taxes. The surviving corporation will pay any applicable fees, charges and expenses of Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (the "ADS Depositary"), in its
capacity as the ADS depositary in connection with distribution of the merger consideration to holders of ADSs, including applicable ADS cancellation fees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Merger
is consummated, the following Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs) will be cancelled and cease to exist at the Effective Time but will not be converted into the right to receive the
consideration described in the immediately preceding sentence:
- (a)
- 27,542,625 Class A
ordinary shares and 13,416,800 Class B ordinary shares held by Perfect Human and the Shares held by Parent,
the Company or any of their subsidiaries (including such Shares represented by ADSs) immediately prior to the Effective Time, which will be cancelled without payment of any consideration or
distribution therefor; and
- (b)
- Shares
owned by shareholders who have validly exercised and have not effectively withdrawn or lost their rights to dissent from the Merger in accordance
with Section 238 of the Cayman Islands Companies Law Cap. 22 (Law 3 of 1961, as consolidated and revised) (the "Cayman Islands Companies Law"), which will be cancelled and will
entitle the former holders thereof to receive the fair value thereon in accordance with the provisions of Section 238 of the Cayman Islands Companies Law, and from the Effective Time such
dissenting shareholders shall cease to have any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company except the right to be paid the fair value of such Shares.
In
addition to the foregoing, at the Effective Time, each option to purchase Shares granted under the Company's Amended and Restated Share Incentive Plan, effective November 14,
2009, the Company's 2010 Share Incentive Plan and the Company's 2013 Share Incentive Plan (as amended and
1
Table of Contents
supplemented,
collectively, the "Share Incentive Plans") that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not vested or exercisable, will be cancelled and shall entitle the
former holder thereof to receive an amount equal to the product of (a) the excess, if any, of US$4.04 over the per share exercise price of such option and (b) the number of Shares
(including Shares represented by ADSs) underlying such option payable on the next applicable regularly scheduled employee payroll date (whether or not such option holder is then an employee of the
Company), in cash, without interest and net of any applicable withholding taxes.
The
Merger remains subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, including obtaining the requisite approval of the shareholders of the
Company. The Merger Agreement, the plan of merger required to be filed with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands in connection with the Merger (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 a special resolution of the
Company passed by an affirmative vote of holders of Shares representing at least two-thirds of the voting rights of the Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs) present and voting in person or by
proxy as a single class at the extraordinary general meeting held in accordance with its memorandum and articles of association.
The Company will make available to its shareholders a proxy statement (the "Proxy Statement," a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(1) to this Amendment),
relating to the extraordinary general meeting, 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.
