On July 11, 2022, the Issuer entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Cheers Inc. (“Parent”) and GSMG Ltd. (“Merger Sub”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Issuer, with the Issuer continuing as the surviving company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each Share of the Issuer issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be cancelled and cease to exist in exchange for the right to receive US$1.55 in cash without interest, except for (a) certain Shares owned by the Reporting Persons, which will be rolled over in the transaction, (b) Shares owned by Parent, Merger Sub, the Issuer or any of their respective subsidiaries, which will be cancelled and cease to exist without payment of any consideration and (c) Shares held by shareholders who have validly exercised and not effectively withdrawn or lost their rights to dissent from the Merger pursuant to Section 238 of the Cayman Islands Companies Act (As Revised), which will be cancelled and cease to exist in exchange for the right to receive the payment of fair value of those dissenting shares in accordance with Section 238 of the Cayman Islands Companies Act (As Revised). The Merger is subject to customary closing conditions including a condition that the Merger Agreement be authorized and approved by a special resolution by the affirmative vote of holders of Shares representing at least two-thirds of the voting power of the Shares present and voting in person or by proxy at a meeting of the Issuer’s shareholders. The purpose of the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement, including the Merger, is to acquire all of the publicly held Shares. If completed, the Merger will result in the Issuer becoming a privately held company, and its Shares will no longer be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

 

Limited Guarantees and Equity Commitment Letters

 

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, each of the persons named under column (A) below (collectively, the “Sponsors”) entered into a limited guarantee (collectively, the “Limited Guarantees”) in favor of the Issuer whereby each Sponsor agreed to irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee its respective portion (as set forth opposite its name under column (B)) of Parent’s obligation to pay the Issuer the Parent Termination Fee (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and certain costs and expenses, if and as required pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, up to an aggregate amount equal to its respective portion of US$1,055,897.22, as well as an equity commitment letter (the “Equity Commitment Letters”) with Parent confirming its commitment to contribute to Parent cash in the amount set forth opposite its name under column (C) (subject to certain adjustments as set forth in its Equity Commitment Letter) in exchange for equity securities of Parent for the purpose of funding the Merger consideration and fees and expenses incurred by Parent in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

Voting Proxies

 

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, each of the Shareholders and certain of their affiliates entered into a voting proxy with Parent (collectively, the “Voting Proxies”) pursuant to which the Shareholders and their affiliates irrevocably and unconditionally granted a voting proxy and power of attorney to Parent solely in respect of the exercise of the voting rights attached to the Shares held by the Shareholders to vote in favor of the Merger and the approval and authorization of the Merger Agreement, and to vote against any competing transaction or any other action, transaction, proposal or agreement that may or is intended to prevent, hinder or in any material aspect interfere with or postpone, the Merger or adversely affect the performance by the relevant Shareholder of its obligations under its Support Agreement.

 

Interim Investors Agreement

 

In connection with the Merger, HSL, each of the Sponsors, Parent and Merger Sub entered into an interim investors agreement (the “Interim Investors Agreement”) in order to establish certain terms and conditions that will govern the actions of Parent and Merger Sub and the relationship among HSL and the Sponsors with respect to, among other things, the Merger Agreement, the Limited Guarantees, the Equity Commitment Letters and the transactions contemplated thereby.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Merger Agreement, the Limited Guarantees, the Equity Commitment Letters, the Voting Proxies and the Interim Investors Agreement (each a “Merger Document”, and collectively, the “Merger Documents”) do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of each such Merger Document, each of which is filed as an exhibit to this Schedule 13D and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

General

 

The Reporting Persons acquired the securities described in this Schedule 13D for investment purposes and intend to review their investments in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Any actions the Reporting Persons might undertake may be made at any time and from time to time without prior notice and will be dependent upon the Reporting Persons’ review of numerous factors, including, but not limited to: an ongoing evaluation of the Issuer’s business, financial condition, operations and prospects; price levels of the Issuer’s securities; general market, industry and economic conditions; the relative attractiveness of alternative business and investment opportunities; and other future developments.

 

Subject to the terms of the Merger Documents, the Reporting Persons may acquire additional securities of the Issuer, or retain or sell all or a portion of the securities then held, in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. In connection with the Merger, the Reporting Persons may engage in discussions with management, the Board, and security holders of the Issuer and other relevant parties or encourage, cause or seek to cause the Issuer or such persons to consider or explore extraordinary corporate transactions, including the Merger. There can be no assurance, however, that any proposed transaction, including the Merger, would receive the requisite approvals from the respective governing bodies and shareholders, as applicable, or that any such transaction would be successfully implemented.
