This Amendment No. 1 amends and supplements the Schedule 13D originally filed on February 14, 2018 (the "Original Schedule 13D") relating to the Shares of the Issuer. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined in this Amendment No. 1 have the meaning set forth in the Original Schedule 13D.  This Amendment No. 1 amends Items 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 as set forth below.

 

Item 3. Source and Amounts of Funds or Other Consideration
   
  Item 3 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
   
  It is anticipated that the funding for the Transaction (as described in Item 4) will be provided by equity financing. The equity financing will be provided by the members of the Buyer Consortium (as defined below) in the form of cash and through the rollover of certain amount of the equity interests in the Issuer held by the members of the Buyer Consortium and their respective affiliates (such equity interests referred to in the foregoing clause, collectively, the "Rollover Shares").
   
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
   
  Item 4 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
   
  On November 9, 2019, TF Capital Ranok Ltd. ("TF Capital"), Bizuo (Tony) Liu ("Mr. Liu"), Hillhouse Bio Holdings, L.P. ("Hillhouse Bio", an affiliate of Hillhouse Capital Advisors, Ltd., ("Hillhouse")), Li (Helen) Zhang ("Ms. Zhang"), Yihong Yao ("Mr. Yao") and Chengxiang (Chase) Dai ("Mr. Dai," together with TF Capital, Hillhouse, Mr. Liu, Ms. Zhang and Mr. Yao and any Additional Consortium Members (defined below), collectively, the "Buyer Consortium", and together with Hillhouse Bio, TF Capital, Mr. Liu, Ms. Zhang and Mr. Yao, each, an "Initial Consortium Member") entered into a consortium agreement (the "Consortium Agreement"), pursuant to which each member of the Buyer Consortium has agreed, among other things, that (i) Mr. Liu, Hillhouse Bio and TF Capital, as lead investors under the Consortium Agreement, shall cooperate and proceed in good faith in undertaking due diligence, if required, engaging in discussions with the Issuer regarding the Proposal (as defined below) and/or an acquisition transaction of the Issuer (the "Transaction"), negotiating and finalizing the definitive documentation in connection with the Transaction and taking any action or refraining from taking any action to comply with the obligations, satisfying the closing conditions or exercise the rights under such definitive documentation, (ii) for a period ending on the earlier of (A) 12 months after the date of the Consortium Agreement and (B) the termination of the Consortium Agreement pursuant to its terms, each member of the Buyer Consortium shall work exclusively with each other with respect to the Transaction and vote all equity securities held or otherwise beneficially owned by it or its affiliates in the Issuer in favor of the authorization and approval of the Transaction and any definitive documentation in connection therewith and against any other proposal opposed to the Transaction or that otherwise that could prevent, impede or, in any material respect, interfere therewith, and (iii) each applicable member of the Buyer Consortium shall cancel their (or their affiliates') Rollover Shares for no consideration and subscribe for certain number of newly issued shares of a new company to be formed by the Buyer Consortium.
   
  On November 10, 2019 and November 11, 2019, each of Dangdai International Group Co., Limited ("Dangdai") and Mission Right Limited ("Mission Right") entered into an adherence agreement to the Consortium Agreement and joined the Buyer Consortium.

 

CUSIP No. 15117P02SCHEDULE 13DPage 4 of 7 Pages

 

   
  On November 11, 2019, the Buyer Consortium (including the Initial Consortium Members and Dangdai and Mission Right) submitted a non-binding preliminary proposal (the "Proposal") to the board of directors of the Issuer (the "Board"). In the Proposal, the Buyer Consortium proposed to acquire all of the outstanding Shares of the Issuer (other than the Rollover Shares) for $19.50 per share in cash. The Proposal also provided that, among other things, the Buyer Consortium would negotiate and execute definitive agreements with respect to the Transaction that would provide for representations, warranties, covenants and conditions that would be typical, customary and appropriate for transactions of this type.
   
  References to the Consortium Agreement, the Adherence Agreements of Dangdai and Mission Right and the Proposal in this Schedule 13D are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Consortium Agreement, the Adherence Agreements of Dangdai and Mission Right and the Proposal, which are attached hereto as Exhibit 3, Exhibit 4-A, Exhibit 4-B and Exhibit 5, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
   
  On February 21, 2020, Maplebrook Limited ("Maplebrook"), Viktor Pan ("Mr. Pan"), OPEA SRL ("OPEA"), Zheng Zhou ("Mr. Zhou"), Wealth Map and Earls Mill (together with Dangdai and Mission Right, each, an "Additional Consortium Member") each entered into an adherence agreement (together with the adherence agreements to the Consortium Agreement entered into by Dangdai and Mission Right, each, an "Adherence Agreement" and together the "Adherence Agreements" ) to the Consortium Agreement and joined the Buyer Consortium. For the purposes of the Schedule 13D, and where the context so provides, all references to the "Buyer Consortium" shall be deemed to include Maplebrook, Mr. Pan, OPEA, Mr. Zhou, Wealth Map, Earls Mill, Dangdai and Mission Right as Additional Consortium Members.
   
  On February 21, 2020, the Buyer Consortium (including the Initial Consortium Members and the Additional Consortium Members) submitted a new non-binding preliminary proposal (the "New Proposal") to a special committee of the Board consisting of independent and disinterested directors (the "Special Committee"). In the New Proposal, the Buyer Consortium proposed to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Shares of the Issuer (other than the Rollover Shares) for $19.50 per share in cash. The New Proposal also provided that, among other things (i) the Buyer Consortium would negotiate and execute definitive agreements with respect to the Transaction that would provide for representations, warranties, covenants and conditions that would be typical, customary and appropriate for transactions of this type; and (ii) the New Proposal was conditioned upon the non-waivable conditions requiring (A) approval of the Transaction by a properly functioning Special Committee and (B) approval of the Transaction by stockholders holding at least a majority of all the issued and outstanding Shares of the Issuer not affiliated with any member of the Buyer Consortium. For the purposes of the Schedule 13D, and where the context so provides, all references to the "Proposal" shall be deemed to refer to the "New Proposal."
   
  References to the Adherence Agreements (of Maplebrook, Mr. Pan, OPEA, Mr. Zhou and Wealth Map and Earls Mill) and the New Proposal in this Amendment No. 1 are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Adherence Agreements (of Maplebrook, Mr. Pan, OPEA, Mr. Zhou and Wealth Map and Earls Mill) and the New Proposal which are attached hereto as Exhibit 6-A, Exhibit 6-B, Exhibit 6-C, Exhibit 6-D, Exhibit 6-E and Exhibit 7, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
   

 

CUSIP No. 15117P02SCHEDULE 13DPage 5 of 7 Pages

 

  If the Transaction is carried out and consummated, the Shares of the Issuer will no longer be traded on the Nasdaq Global Market and the registration of the Shares of the Issuer under Section 12 of the Act is expected to be terminated. No assurance can be given that any definitive agreement will be entered into or the Transaction will be consummated. The Proposal provides that it does not constitute any binding commitment with respect to the Transaction and that a binding commitment will result only from the execution of definitive agreements based on the terms and conditions therein.

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
   
  Items 5(a) and (b) of the Original Schedule 13D are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
   
(a) See rows (11) and (13) of the cover pages to this Schedule 13D for the aggregate number of Shares and percentages of the shares of Shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Person. The percentage used in this Schedule 13D is calculated based upon an aggregate of 19,280,612 Shares outstanding as of November 1, 2019 as disclosed in the Issuer's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 6, 2019.
 
(b) See rows (7) through (10) of the cover pages to this Schedule 13D for the number of Shares as to which the Reporting Person has the sole or shared power to vote or direct the vote and sole or shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition.
   
  Because of the arrangements in the Consortium Agreement and the Adherence Agreements, the Reporting Persons and the other members of the Buyer Consortium that beneficially own Shares may be deemed to have formed a "group" for purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Act. Collectively, the "group" may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 9,278,290 shares of outstanding Shares (including an aggregate of 811,000 Shares issuable upon the exercise of options, 58,001 Shares issuable upon the vesting of restricted stock units and 358,974 Shares issuable upon the conversion of convertible notes held by members of the Buyer Consortium), which represents approximately 45.2% of the total shares of outstanding Shares (accounting for all Shares that would be outstanding upon exercise of all of the foregoing options, vesting of the foregoing restricted stock units and conversion of the foregoing convertible notes). Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents, however, shall be deemed to constitute an admission by the Reporting Persons that they are the beneficial owners of any Shares beneficially owned by any other member of the Buyer Consortium and any of his, her or their respective affiliates for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act or for any other purpose, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed.

 

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer
   
  Item 6 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
   
  The Reporting Person's response to Item 4 is incorporated by reference into this Item 6.
