This Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on September 30, 2013 (the “Original Schedule 13D” and, as amended and supplemented by this Amendment, the “Schedule 13D”) with respect to the Common Shares. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment and not otherwise defined shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Original Schedule 13D.

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction

This Amendment supplements Item 4 of the Original Schedule 13D by inserting the following after the paragraph under the heading “Convertible Note”:

“On November 7, 2014, TPG Asia VI SF and the Issuer entered into a Notes Redemption Agreement (the “Redemption Agreement”) pursuant to which the Issuer agreed to redeem the Convertible Note prior to 4:00 PM (New York time) on December 1, 2014 by paying TPG Asia VI SF an amount in cash equal to (i) the aggregate principal amount outstanding, plus (ii) all accrued and unpaid interest up to and including the redemption date, plus (iii) an amount equal to the 13% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding. Until the redemption, TPG Asia VI SF shall be entitled to all rights and privileges as a holder of the Convertible Note.”

This Amendment amends and restates the final paragraph of Item 4 of the Original Schedule 13D in its entirety as set forth below:

References to and descriptions of the Securities Purchase Agreement, Convertible Note, Chairman Letter Agreement, Registration Rights Agreement and Redemption Agreement set forth above in this Item 4 do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Securities Purchase Agreement, Convertible Note, Chairman Letter Agreement, Registration Rights Agreement and Redemption Agreement, which have been filed as Exhibits 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer

This Amendment amends and restates the second and third paragraphs of Item 5 of the Original Schedule 13D in their entirety as set forth below:

“(a)–(b) The following disclosure assumes that there are a total of 184,061,286 Common Shares outstanding, which (i) is the sum of (a) the 158,807,616 Common Shares outstanding as of March 31, 2014 as reported in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the Commission on April 25, 2014, and (b) the 25,253,670 Common Shares issuable to TPG Asia VI SF upon conversion of the Convertible Note, and (ii) excludes Common Shares that may be issued to the Chairman or his affiliates upon the exercise of stock options.

Pursuant to Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own 37,253,670 Common Shares, which (i) includes 12,000,000 Common Shares held directly by TPG Asia VI SF and 25,253,670 Common Shares issuable to TPG Asia VI SF upon conversion of the Convertible Note and (ii) constitutes approximately 20.2% of the outstanding Common Shares. The total excludes Common Shares beneficially owned by the Chairman and his affiliates that, as further described in Item 4, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own pursuant to the Chairman Letter Agreement. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of any Common Shares beneficially owned by the Chairman or his affiliates.”

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

This Amendment amends and restates the second paragraph of Item 6 of the Original Schedule 13D in its entirety as set forth below:

“Except for the Securities Purchase Agreement, Chairman Letter Agreement, Convertible Note, Registration Rights Agreement and Redemption Agreement, to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise), including, but not limited to, the transfer or voting of any of the securities, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies, among the persons named in

Item 2 or between such persons and any other person, with respect to any securities of Issuer, including, but not limited to, any securities pledged or otherwise subject to a contingency the occurrence of which would give another person voting power or investment power over such securities.”
