The total consideration of this partial tender offer was RMB 6.084 billion. This transaction was groundbreaking as it was the only case to date in 2018, where a company dual listed on the New York Stock Exchange and the London Stock Exchange, as a foreign strategic investor, made a tender offer for the shares in an A-share listed company. Acted as Chinese legal counsel for Swellfun, M88 Game participated in the entire process of this transaction, including but not limited to the design and assessment of transaction structure, legal due diligence, issuance of legal opinions, advising on government approval/filing, drafting and reviewing of public announcements documents of the listed company, and assisting Swellfun in communication with other parties to the transaction.
