(1) The sources of funds were: (a) a loan in the principal amount of $295 million from Korea Export-Import Bank to Hanwha Chemical Corporation (“Hanwha Chemical”) on September 16, 2010, (b) the internal reserves of Hanwha Chemical, and (c) all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hanwha Solar Holdings Co., Ltd. (“Hanwha”). Hanwha is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hanwha Chemical.

 

(2) The aggregate amount beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons is comprised of the following: (a) 209,249,448 ordinary shares of Hanwha SolarOne Co., Ltd. (the “Issuer”), par value US$0.0001 per share (“Ordinary Shares”), which includes 6,405,055 Ordinary Shares represented by an aggregate of 1,281,011 American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) of the Issuer; (b) 20,062,348 Ordinary Shares (the “Loaned Shares”) issued to Hanwha pursuant to that certain Share Issuance and Repurchase Agreement, dated as of September 16, 2010, by and between the Issuer and Hanwha (the “Share Lending Agreement”); and (c) 3,701,145,330 Ordinary Shares issued to Hanwha pursuant to that certain Share Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 8, 2014, by and among Hanwha, Hanwha Q CELLS Investment Co., Ltd. and the Issuer (the “2014 Purchase Agreement”). The 3,910,394,778 Ordinary Shares and 20,062,348 Loaned Shares are held directly by Hanwha.

Pursuant to the Share Lending Agreement, Hanwha agreed that it holds only the voting rights with respect to any Loaned Shares and, subject to applicable law, waived all other rights attaching to or arising in respect of the Loaned Shares.

 

(3) Percentage of class calculated based on an aggregate of 457,394,472 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding as of December 17, 2014, based upon information provided to the Reporting Persons by the Issuer, plus each of the following: (a) the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares issued to Hanwha pursuant to the Share Lending Agreement; (b) 20,070,375 Ordinary Shares (represented by 4,014,075 ADSs, the “Loaned ADSs”) issued to Morgan Stanley & Co. International PLC (the “Dealer”) pursuant to that certain Share Issuance and Repurchase Agreement by and between the Issuer and the Dealer, dated as of January 23, 2008 (the “Dealer Agreement”); and (c) the 3,701,145,330 Ordinary Shares issued to Hanwha pursuant to the 2014 Purchase Agreement, for an aggregate total of 4,198,672,525 outstanding Ordinary Shares.

The Issuer stated in the Shareholder Circular dated December 24, 2014, furnished with the Issuer’s Report of Foreign Issuer on Form 6-K for the month of December 2014, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 24, 2014 (the “Circular”), that it does not believe that the Ordinary Shares represented by the Loaned ADSs or the Loaned Shares will increase the number of Ordinary Shares considered outstanding for the purpose of calculating beneficial ownership. For purposes of calculating beneficial ownership in the Circular, the Issuer excluded the 4,014,075 Loaned ADSs and the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares from the number of Ordinary Share equivalents deemed outstanding. The Issuer’s total outstanding Ordinary Shares as of December 17, 2014 would have been 497,527,195 if the 4,014,075 Loaned ADSs and the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares were included in the calculation of beneficial ownership.

For purposes of reporting its beneficial ownership in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons have assumed that the Loaned Shares are issued, outstanding and beneficially held by the Reporting Persons. If the Reporting Persons excluded the Loaned Shares, they would be deemed to beneficially own 3,910,394,778 Ordinary Shares. Inclusion or exclusion of the Loaned Shares would not materially change the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership percentage. In the case of exclusion of the Loaned Shares and the Loaned ADSs for purposes of calculating beneficial ownership, the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership percentage would be approximately 94.0%.

Based on information provided to the Reporting Persons by the Issuer, a total of 585,790 Ordinary Shares have been reserved by the Issuer as of December 17, 2014 to allow for the participation in the ADS program by its employees pursuant to the Issuer’s equity incentive plans (the “Option Reserve Shares”). For purposes of calculating beneficial ownership in the Circular, the Issuer excluded the Option Reserve Shares from the number of Ordinary Share equivalents deemed outstanding and stated that it did not believe that the Option Reserve Shares would increase the number of Ordinary Shares considered outstanding for the purpose of calculating beneficial ownership. Accordingly, the Reporting Persons have excluded the Option Reserve Shares from the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares for purposes of calculating and reporting the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership in this Schedule 13D. The Issuer’s total outstanding Ordinary Shares as of December 17, 2014 would have been 498,112,985 if the 4,014,075 Loaned ADSs, the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares and the 585,790 Option Reserve Shares were included in the calculation of beneficial ownership. Inclusion or exclusion of the Option Reserve Shares would not materially change the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership percentage. In the case of inclusion of the Option Reserve Shares for purposes of calculating beneficial ownership, the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership percentage would be approximately 93.6%.

(2) The aggregate amount beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons is comprised of the following: (a) 209,249,448 Ordinary Shares, which includes 6,405,055 Ordinary Shares represented by an aggregate of 1,281,011 ADS of the Issuer; (b) 20,062,348 Loaned Shares issued to Hanwha pursuant to the Share Lending Agreement; and (c) 3,701,145,330 Ordinary Shares issued to Hanwha pursuant to the 2014 Purchase Agreement. The 3,910,394,778 Ordinary Shares and 20,062,348 Loaned Shares are held directly by Hanwha. Hanwha is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hanwha Chemical and Hanwha Chemical may therefore be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the 3,910,394,778 Ordinary Shares and the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares.

Pursuant to the Share Lending Agreement, Hanwha agreed that it holds only the voting rights with respect to any Loaned Shares and, subject to applicable law, waived all other rights attaching to or arising in respect of the Loaned Shares.

 

(3) Percentage of class calculated based on an aggregate of 457,394,472 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding as of December 17, 2014, based upon information provided to the Reporting Persons by the Issuer, plus each of the following: (a) the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares issued to Hanwha pursuant to the Share Lending Agreement; (b) 20,070,375 Ordinary Shares (represented by the 4,014,075 Loaned ADSs) issued to the Dealer pursuant to the Dealer Agreement; and (c) the 3,701,145,330 Ordinary Shares issued to Hanwha pursuant to the 2014 Purchase Agreement, for an aggregate total of 4,198,672,525 outstanding Ordinary Shares.

The Issuer stated in the Circular that it does not believe that the Ordinary Shares represented by the Loaned ADSs or the Loaned Shares will increase the number of Ordinary Shares considered outstanding for the purpose of calculating beneficial ownership. For purposes of calculating beneficial ownership in the Circular, the Issuer excluded the 4,014,075 Loaned ADSs and the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares from the number of Ordinary Share equivalents deemed outstanding. The Issuer’s total outstanding Ordinary Shares as of December 17, 2014 would have been 497,527,195 if the 4,014,075 Loaned ADSs and the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares were included in the calculation of beneficial ownership.

For purposes of reporting its beneficial ownership in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons have assumed that the Loaned Shares are issued, outstanding and beneficially held by the Reporting Persons. If the Reporting Persons excluded the Loaned Shares, they would be deemed to beneficially own 3,910,394,778 Ordinary Shares. Inclusion or exclusion of the Loaned Shares would not materially change the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership percentage. In the case of exclusion of the Loaned Shares and the Loaned ADSs for purposes of calculating beneficial ownership, the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership percentage would be approximately 94.0%.

Based on information provided to the Reporting Persons by the Issuer, the Issuer has reserved a total of 585,790 Option Reserve Shares as of December 17, 2014. For purposes of calculating beneficial ownership in the Circular, the Issuer excluded the Option Reserve Shares from the number of Ordinary Share equivalents deemed outstanding and stated that it did not believe that the Option Reserve Shares would increase the number of Ordinary Shares considered outstanding for the purpose of calculating beneficial ownership. Accordingly, the Reporting Persons have excluded the Option Reserve Shares from the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares for purposes of calculating and reporting the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership in this Schedule 13D. The Issuer’s total outstanding Ordinary Shares as of December 17, 2014 would have been 498,112,985 if the 4,014,075 Loaned ADSs, the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares and the 585,790 Option Reserve Shares were included in the calculation of beneficial ownership. Inclusion or exclusion of the Option Reserve Shares would not materially change the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership percentage.

(2) The aggregate amount beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons is comprised of the following: (a) 209,249,448 Ordinary Shares, which includes 6,405,055 Ordinary Shares represented by an aggregate of 1,281,011 ADS of the Issuer; (b) 20,062,348 Loaned Shares issued to Hanwha pursuant to the Share Lending Agreement; and (c) 3,701,145,330 Ordinary Shares issued to Hanwha pursuant to the 2014 Purchase Agreement. The 3,910,394,778 Ordinary Shares and 20,062,348 Loaned Shares are held directly by Hanwha. Hanwha is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hanwha Chemical and Hanwha Chemical may therefore be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the 3,910,394,778 Ordinary Shares and the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares. Hanwha Corporation together with its affiliates hold approximately 42.67% of the issued and outstanding shares of Hanwha Chemical and Hanwha Corporation may therefore be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the 3,910,394,778 Ordinary Shares and the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares. Mr. Seung-Youn Kim, a representative director and executive officer of Hanwha Chemical and Hanwha Corporation, together with his affiliates hold approximately 36.04% of the issued and outstanding shares of Hanwha Corporation and Mr. Seung-Youn Kim may therefore be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the 3,910,394,778 Ordinary Shares and the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares.

Pursuant to the Share Lending Agreement, Hanwha agreed that it holds only the voting rights with respect to any Loaned Shares and, subject to applicable law, waived all other rights attaching to or arising in respect of the Loaned Shares.

 

(3) Percentage of class calculated based on an aggregate of 457,394,472 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding as of December 17, 2014, based upon information provided to the Reporting Persons by the Issuer, plus each of the following: (a) the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares issued to Hanwha pursuant to the Share Lending Agreement; (b) 20,070,375 Ordinary Shares (represented by the 4,014,075 Loaned ADSs) issued to the Dealer pursuant to the Dealer Agreement; and (c) the 3,701,145,330 Ordinary Shares issued to Hanwha pursuant to the 2014 Purchase Agreement, for an aggregate total of 4,198,672,525 outstanding Ordinary Shares.

The Issuer stated in the Circular that it does not believe that the Ordinary Shares represented by the Loaned ADSs or the Loaned Shares will increase the number of Ordinary Shares considered outstanding for the purpose of calculating beneficial ownership. For purposes of calculating beneficial ownership in the Circular, the Issuer excluded the 4,014,075 Loaned ADSs and the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares from the number of Ordinary Share equivalents deemed outstanding. The Issuer’s total outstanding Ordinary Shares as of December 17, 2014 would have been 497,527,195 if the 4,014,075 Loaned ADSs and the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares were included in the calculation of beneficial ownership.

For purposes of reporting its beneficial ownership in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons have assumed that the Loaned Shares are issued, outstanding and beneficially held by the Reporting Persons. If the Reporting Persons excluded the Loaned Shares, they would be deemed to beneficially own 3,910,394,778 Ordinary Shares.

In the case of exclusion of the Loaned Shares and the Loaned ADSs for purposes of calculating beneficial ownership, the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership percentage would be approximately 94.0%.

For purposes of calculating beneficial ownership in the Circular, the Issuer excluded the Option Reserve Shares from the number of Ordinary Share equivalents deemed outstanding and stated that it did not believe that the Option Reserve Shares would increase the number of Ordinary Shares considered outstanding for the purpose of calculating beneficial ownership. Accordingly, the Reporting Persons have excluded the Option Reserve Shares from the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares for purposes of calculating and reporting the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership in this Schedule 13D. The Issuer’s total outstanding Ordinary Shares as of December 17, 2014 would have been 498,112,985 if the 4,014,075 Loaned ADSs, the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares and the 585,790 Option Reserve Shares were included in the calculation of beneficial ownership. Inclusion or exclusion of the Option Reserve Shares would not materially change the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership percentage.

(“Target”) entered into a Share Purchase Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 99.10 to the Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D filed jointly by the Reporting Persons with the SEC on December 8, 2014 (the “Amendment No. 5”) and incorporated herein by reference (the “2014 Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Issuer purchased all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Target, an entity wholly-owned by Hanwha, in exchange for the issuance by the Issuer to Hanwha of 3,701,145,330 Ordinary Shares (the “Transaction”). The Ordinary Shares issued by the Issuer to Hanwha in connection with the Transaction have not been registered with the SEC.

Concurrently with the execution of the 2014 Purchase Agreement, Hanwha and the Issuer entered into a new Shareholder Agreement, which, effective as of the closing of the Transaction on February 6, 2015, replaced the Shareholder Agreement in its entirety. The Amended and Restated Shareholder Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.11 and incorporated herein by reference (the “Amended and Restated Shareholder Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Shareholder Agreement, the parties agreed that, among other things, (i) Hanwha is entitled to certain specified registration rights with respect to potential public offerings of Ordinary Shares or ADSs, (ii) an audit committee of the Issuer will be maintained by the Issuer, (iii) three members of the board of directors of the Issuer will be independent directors, (iv) certain matters relating to the Issuer will require the prior approval of a majority of the independent directors, and (v) there are certain restrictions on the purchase or transfer by Hanwha of securities of the Issuer.

The references to, and descriptions of, the 2014 Purchase Agreement and the Amended and Restated Shareholder Agreement are not intended to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the 2014 Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.10 to the Amendment No. 5, and the Amended and Restated Shareholder Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.11, and which are incorporated herein by reference.

 

ITEM 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

The disclosure in Item 5 of the Initial Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

(a) As of the date hereof, Hanwha beneficially owns: (i) 3,910,394,778 Ordinary Shares, which includes 6,405,055 Ordinary Shares represented by an aggregate of 1,281,011 ADSs, and (ii) the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares issued to Hanwha pursuant to the Share Lending Agreement, representing approximately 93.6% of all of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares. Hanwha is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hanwha Chemical and Hanwha Chemical may therefore be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the 3,910,394,778 Ordinary Shares owned by Hanwha and the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares issued to Hanwha pursuant to the Share Lending Agreement. Hanwha Corporation together with its affiliates hold approximately 42.67% of the issued and outstanding shares of Hanwha Chemical and Hanwha Corporation may therefore be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the 3,910,394,778 Ordinary Shares owned by Hanwha and the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares issued to Hanwha pursuant to the Share Lending Agreement. Mr. Seung-Youn Kim, a representative director and executive officer of Hanwha Chemical and Hanwha Corporation, together with his affiliates hold approximately 36.04% of the issued and outstanding shares of Hanwha Corporation and Mr. Seung-Youn Kim may therefore be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the 3,910,394,778 Ordinary Shares owned by Hanwha and the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares issued to Hanwha pursuant to the Share Lending Agreement.


For purposes of this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons based the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares on an aggregate of 457,394,472 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding as of December 17, 2014, based on information provided to the Reporting Persons by the Issuer, plus each of the following: (a) the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares issued to Hanwha pursuant to the Share Lending Agreement; (b) 20,070,375 Ordinary Shares (represented by the 4,014,075 Loaned ADSs) issued to the Dealer pursuant to the Dealer Agreement, and (c) the 3,701,145,330 Ordinary Shares issued to Hanwha pursuant to the 2014 Purchase Agreement, for an aggregate total of 4,198,672,525 outstanding Ordinary Shares.

The Issuer stated in the Issuer’s Circular that it does not believe that the Ordinary Shares represented by the Loaned ADSs or the Loaned Shares will increase the number of Ordinary Shares considered outstanding for the purpose of calculating beneficial ownership. For purposes of calculating beneficial ownership in the Circular, the Issuer excluded the 4,014,075 Loaned ADSs and the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares from the number of Ordinary Share equivalents deemed outstanding. The Issuer’s total outstanding Ordinary Shares as of December 17, 2014 would have been 497,527,195 if the 4,014,075 Loaned ADSs and the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares were included in the calculation of beneficial ownership.

For purposes of reporting its beneficial ownership in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons have assumed that the Loaned Shares are issued, outstanding and beneficially held by the Reporting Persons. If the Reporting Persons excluded the Loaned Shares, they would be deemed to beneficially own 3,910,394,778 Ordinary Shares. Inclusion or exclusion of the Loaned Shares would not materially change the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership percentage. In the case of exclusion of the Loaned Shares and the Loaned ADSs for purposes of calculating beneficial ownership, the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership percentage would be approximately 94.0%.

Based on information provided to the Reporting Persons by the Issuer, the Issuer has reserved 585,790 Option Reserve Shares as of December 17, 2014. For purposes of calculating beneficial ownership in the Circular, the Issuer excluded the Option Reserve Shares from the number of Ordinary Share equivalents deemed outstanding and stated that it did not believe that the Option Reserve Shares would increase the number of Ordinary Shares considered outstanding for the purpose of calculating beneficial ownership. Accordingly, the Reporting Persons have excluded the Option Reserve Shares from the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares for purposes of calculating and reporting the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership in this Schedule 13D. The Issuer’s total outstanding Ordinary Shares as of December 17, 2014 would have been 498,112,985 if the 4,014,075 Loaned ADSs, the 20,062,348 Loaned Shares and the 585,790 Option Reserve Shares were included in the calculation of beneficial ownership. Inclusion or exclusion of the Option Reserve Shares would not materially change the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership percentage. In the case of inclusion of the Option Reserve Shares for purposes of calculating beneficial ownership, the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership percentage would be approximately 93.6%.
