On August 7, 2020, the Issuer, Parent and TAT Merger Sub LLC, a Texas limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (Merger Sub), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Issuer will merge with and into the Merger Sub (the Merger), with Merger Sub continuing as the surviving entity and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each share of common stock of Issuer, par value US$0.10 (Common Stock) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger shall be converted automatically into the right to receive US$0.13 in cash and without interest.

The completion of the Merger is subject to certain customary closing conditions, including: (i) receipt of approval of the Merger Agreement by written consent of 75% of the holders of Common Stock and 75% of the holders of stock of Issuer designated as the 12.0% Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares, par value $0.01 (Preferred Stock); (ii) the absence of any governmental order prohibiting the consummation of the Merger or other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Merger; and (iii) receipt of all consents, approvals and other authorizations of any governmental entity or any third person required to consummate the Merger and other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

Parent, Merger Sub and the Issuer have made customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement. Subject to certain exceptions, Parent, Merger Sub and Issuer have agreed, among other things, to covenants relating to the conducts of their business during the interim period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and the consummation of the Merger including, but not limited to, (i) limitations regarding assumption of indebtedness, modifications to material contracts and issuance of dividends, (ii) entertaining or entering into acquisitions with third parties, and (iii) filing Rule 13E-3 transaction statements.

The Merger Agreement further contains termination rights that may be exercised by the Parent and Merger Sub, or the Issuer, as applicable, including in the event that (i) Parent, Merger Sub and Issuer agree by mutual written consent to terminate the Merger Agreement, (ii) the Merger is not consummated within 180 days of execution of the Merger Agreement, (iii) any law promulgated by a governmental authority prohibits the consummation of the Merger, (iv) an order from a governmental authority restrains, enjoins or otherwise prohibits consummation of the Merger, and such order has become final and non-appealable.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the actual Merger Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 of the issuers Form 8-K, filed with the Commission on August 10. 2020..

Transaction Agreement

On August 7, 2020, immediately prior to but contingent upon the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Series A Holders and Parent, entered into the Agreement (the Transaction Agreement), pursuant to which, among other things, subject to the terms and conditions therein, the Series A Holders agreed to vote, consent or execute a written consent, covering all of the Preferred Shares and all Common Stock, whether currently owned or subsequently acquired by them (the Covered Shares), approving the Merger, the Merger Agreement and any other matters necessary for consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, and waiving any appraisal or rights to dissent in connection with the Merger.

The Transaction Agreement also generally prohibits the Series A Holders from transferring the Covered Shares. The Transaction Agreement terminates upon the written agreement of the parties to the Transaction Agreement or on March 31, 2021.

The foregoing description of the Transaction Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the actual Transaction Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 99.16 to this Twenty-Sixth Amendment and incorporated herein by reference in its entirety into this Item 4.
