In particular, such purchase of securities of the Company may facilitate a transaction that would cause the ADSs to be held of record by fewer than 300 persons, the ADSs to be delisted from The New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) and/or the termination of the registration of the ADSs under Section 12 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

At this time, there is no definitive agreement or understanding with respect to the Ocean Proposed Transaction, or any other transaction that constitutes a Rule 13e-3 transaction, between the Company and any of Filing Persons. At this time, the special committee of the Board, formed to evaluate the preliminary, non-binding proposal submitted by Goliath Advisors Limited (“Goliath”) to the Board on November 26, 2017, pursuant to which it proposed to acquire all of the outstanding Common Shares (including Common Shares represented by ADSs) for US$13.35 in cash per ADS or US$6.675 in cash per Common Share, which was later superseded and replaced by the preliminary, non-binding proposal (the “Chairman Proposal”) submitted by Mr. Ray Ruiping Zhang (the “Chairman”), the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and MBK Partners HK Limited (“MBKP”, together with the Chairman and other investors participating in the Chairman Proposal, the “Chairman Consortium”), or any other going-private transaction involving the Company (the “Special Committee”), has not made any decision with respect to the Company’s response to the Ocean Proposal or the Ocean Proposed Transaction, and no assurance can be given that any proposal, any definitive agreement or any transaction related to the Ocean Proposed Transaction will be entered into or consummated. The Ocean Proposal provides that a binding commitment with respect to the Ocean Proposed Transaction will result only from the execution of definitive agreements, and then only on the terms and conditions provided in such documents. If and when such a transaction is agreed to between the Ocean Consortium and the Company, the Filing Persons intend to amend this Schedule 13E-3.

Neither the SEC nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved the ROFO Purchases or the Ocean Transaction, passed upon the merits or fairness of the ROFO Purchases or the Ocean Transaction, or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of the disclosure in this Schedule 13E-3. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

All information contained in this Transaction Statement concerning each Filing Person has been supplied by such Filing Person.

In the alternative, if the winding up petition is not dismissed, to grant a validation order,  and a fortification order in the terms sought by the Company. The actions sought by the Company under the validation order would enable the Company to issue additional Class B Common Shares which carry ten votes per share which will have the effect of drastically diluting the voting power of existing shareholders, including the Ocean Consortium Members, pursuant to (i) a PIPE (private investment in public equity) transaction (the “PIPE Transaction”) to members of the Chairman Consortium or unaffiliated investors while disqualifying any Ocean Consortium Member from participating  in such transaction,  and (ii) implementation of a new employee incentive program, under which Class B Common Shares would be issued to the Company’s management and employees, including the Chairman, while only Class A Common Shares were issuable under the Company’s existing employee incentive plans adopted in 2010 and 2014.

On or around May 22, 2018, each of Ignition and GS received letters from the Company and/or Crawford alleging that Ctrip was directly, and indirectly through one of its affiliates, operating a car rental business in China and was otherwise engaging in business practices that were directly competitive with the Company’s business, and therefore  it believed that Ctrip may be deemed a “Company Competitor” (which is defined in the Investors Rights Agreement as a person or entity who (or whose affiliate) “directly or indirectly provides car rental services”, (b) any transfer of Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs) to Ctrip, whether directly or indirectly, is expressly prohibited under the Investors Rights Agreement without Crawford’s agreement, (c) the Company understands that Crawford had not provided and did not intend to provide any such written approval, and (d) the Company would not recognize any transfer in breach of the Investors Rights Agreement.

On May 24, 2018, Ctrip responded to Ignition emphasizing that Ctrip was not a Company Competitor and that the only qualification to Ctrip’s right of first offer as set forth in the Investors Rights Agreement is the percentage of shares of the Company held by Ctrip.

Also on May 24, 2018, Ocean Link responded to the Special Committee via email providing it with information requested in the May 17 email, attaching a highly confident letter from Bank A stating that it is highly confident that it will be able to provide debt financing in the amount of no more than $800 million in connection with the Ocean Proposed Transaction.

On May 25, 2018, the Ocean Consortium filed an affirmations with the Cayman Islands Grand Court.  In the affirmation, representative of the Ocean Consortium stated that it cannot be reasonably asserted that Ctrip is a Company Competitor for the following reasons:

·      Ctrip and the Company have completely different business models. Since before the date of the Investors Rights Agreement, Ctrip has been and still is an online platform facilitating the searching and booking of a range of travel services including accommodation reservation, transportation ticketing, packaged tours and corporate travel management. Other than investments it makes in complimentary industries (such as its investment in the Company as a leading car rental provider in China), it only acts as a portal to connect various travel service providers to consumers. This is a totally different business model as compared to the Company’s business model, which focuses exclusively on car rental and car services in the People’s Republic of China.

·      In fact, Ctrip is a long-term business partner to the Company. Since May 2012, the Company has used Ctrip as a powerful portal to promote its car rental services to consumers in China, and allowed Ctrip users to reserve rental cars with the Company. The Company is one of approximately 800 business partners of Ctrip in providing car rental services to Ctrip’s customers who have varied travel needs.

·      “Ctrip Premium Choice” is a service quality acknowledgement that Ctrip gives, from time to time, to certain reputable travel service suppliers that meet objective criteria. It has been a part of Ctrip’s offering to its users since 2016. When users search on Ctrip platform for travel service providers, the designation of “携程优选” (“Ctrip Premium Choice”) will appear next to a search result to show the qualified providers that have met a set of service standards and therefore are considered more reliable in terms of its service quality than other peer providers. Currently, there are approximately 40 suppliers of car rental services with the designation of “Ctrip Premium Choice”. “Ctrip Premium Choice” is not particularly different from the “Amazon’s Choice” designation, which Amazon applies to certain products on its marketplace on the basis of objective statistics such as a product’s pricing, rate of return and customer reviews to help consumers make informed choices. “Ctrip Premium Choice” is by no means a “competitor” of eHi, but aims to guide Ctrip’s users to quality-assured car rental services provided by third parties. Ctrip contacted the Company when it planned to launch the “Ctrip Premium Choice” designation, and shared the criteria for being listed as “Ctrip Premium Choice” with the Company. The Company is not a “Ctrip Premium Choice” provider because it has not been able to meet the criteria required.

·      While Ctrip owns 58.5% of Shanghai XiCui, an investee of Ctrip that operates mainly in advertising services and car rental services, equity investment in Shanghai XiCui was only one of many investments that Ctrip makes to compliment its platform business. Shanghai XiCui operates a fleet of only around 300 vehicles for hire, whereas the Company is the second largest car rental company in China with approximately 65,000 vehicles currently in its fleet, with a projected increase in its’ fleet size to 75,000 by the end of this year. With an operational fleet more than 215 times the size of Shanghai XiCui, it is unrealistic to say that Shanghai XiCui is a Company Competitor.  Furthermore, Ctrip has entered into a definitive agreement to spin off its equity holding in Shanghai XiCui and expects the transaction to be completed soon.

On May 29, 2018, the Ocean Consortium filed an amended petition to the Cayman Islands Grand Court.

On May 30, 2018, Ocean Link received another email from the Special Committee requesting the Ocean Consortium to provide, among others, further details on its proposed sources and composition of equity and debt financing for the Ocean Proposed Transaction,  the Ocean Consortium’s plan for the 2018 Notes and 2022 Notes, and any discussion the Ocean Consortium had with Burford Capital Investment Management LLC and/or members of the Chairman Consortium.

On June 1, 2018, Ctrip received a letter from GS’s counsel requesting Ctrip to respond to the allegation made by the Company and Crawford that Ctrip was a Company Competitor. On the same day,  a representative of Ctrip reached out to Ignition providing it with an update on Ctrip’s effort to dispose of its interest in Shanghai XiCui.

On June 3, 2018, Ocean Link responded to the email from Fenwick dated June 1, 2018, providing the Special Committee with the requested information and attaching a draft merger agreement. In its response, Ocean Link laid out its proposed plan with respect to the outstanding 7.5% Senior Notes due December 8, 2018 issued by the Company (the “2018 Notes”) and 5.875% Senior Notes due August 14, 2022 issued by the Company (the “2022 Notes”; together with the 2018 Notes, the “Existing Notes”), including options to repurchase, redeem or to keep such notes outstanding. Ocean Link has also informed the Special Committee that the Ocean Consortium intends to procure sufficient debt financing to repurchase and/or redeem the Existing Notes in full (together with any consent fee and/or any applicable premium in connection therewith) if such repurchase and/or redemption will be required in connection with the Ocean Proposed Transaction, and as such, the consummation of the Ocean Proposed Transaction will not be contingent upon the success of any consent solicitation (and/or any offer to purchase) in respect of the Existing Notes.  Ocean Link also stated in its response that despite the Ocean Consortium’s openness to welcome existing shareholders to engage in discussions about their potential involvement in the Ocean Proposed Transaction, it had not received any meaningful feedback from any member of the Chairman Consortium.

On June 5, 2018, Ctrip entered into an equity transfer agreement with an unrelated third party, pursuant to which Ctrip agreed to sell to the third party all of Ctrip’s equity interest in Shanghai XiCui on arms-length basis. The parties to the equity transfer agreement intend to complete the equity transfer as soon as possible.

On June 6, 2018, Ctrip responded to GS with its belief that Ctrip was not a Company Competitor with the same reasoning elaborated in the affirmation filed by the Ocean Consortium with the Cayman Islands Grand Court on May 25, 2018.

On June 19, 2018, Ctrip received a letter from GS, which was also sent to Crawford, pursuant to which GS sought an agreed way forward mutually agreeable between Crawford and Ctrip, and if such agreement is not possible, mutually agreeable procedural steps between Crawford and Ctrip to resolve the dispute over Ctrip’s right to purchase the GS Subject Securities under the Investors Rights Agreement by June 26, 2018.

As of the date of this Schedule 13E-3, the Ocean Consortium has not been granted access to the due diligence materials that had been provided to the Chairman Consortium.

Item 6            Purposes of the Transaction and Plans or Proposals

This Schedule 13E-3 is being filed in connection with the ROFO Purchases by Ctrip Investment from Ignition and GS, respectively, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the First Offer Notices. The Filing Persons are filing this Schedule 13E-3 because the ROFO Purchases, in light of the formation of the Ocean Consortium and the Ocean Proposed Transaction, may be viewed as a step in a series of transactions having the reasonable likelihood or purpose of producing, directly or indirectly, one or more of the effects set forth in Rule 13e-3(a)(3)(ii) under the Exchange Act.

(a)   Purposes; Reasons; and Plans.

The Ocean Proposed Transaction

Under the SEC rules governing going-private transactions, each Filing Person is deemed to be engaged in a going private transaction and, therefore, required to express his, her or its reasons and purposes for the Ocean Proposed Transaction to the holders of the Shares of the Company unaffiliated with the Ocean Consortium, as defined in Rule 13e-3 of the Exchange Act. Each Filing Person is making the statements included in this section solely for the purpose of complying with the requirements of Rule 13e-3 and related rules under the Exchange Act.

For the Ocean Consortium, the purpose of the Ocean Proposed Transaction is to enable the Ocean Consortium to acquire 100% ownership of the Company, in a transaction in which the holders of the Shares of the Company unaffiliated with the Ocean Consortium will be cashed out in exchange for US$14.50 in cash per ADS or US$7.25 in cash per Common Share, as applicable, so that the Ocean Consortium and its affiliates will bear the rewards and risks of the sole ownership of the Company after the ADSs and Shares are cancelled, including any increases in value of the Company as a result of synergies with Ctrip and improvements to the Company’s operations or acquisitions of other businesses.

Synergy with Ctrip, the Company’s Long-Term Business Partner and Important Strategic Investor

Ctrip, a member of the Ocean Consortium, has been, and continues to be a long-term business partner of the Company. The Ocean Consortium is committed to the Company’s growth and development as a commercial enterprise.

Ctrip is an online platform facilitating the searching and booking of a range of travel services including accommodation reservation, transportation ticketing, packaged tours and corporate travel management. Since May 2012, the Company has used Ctrip as an online web, and (since June 2014) mobile portal to promote its car rental services to consumers in the PRC and to use that portal to allow millions of Ctrip users to reserve cars with the Company. The Company’s car rental booking through Ctrip’s mobile and web portals has grown faster than the overall growth rate of the Company from 2016 to the first quarter of 2018. Ctrip is committed to working with the Company to help it grow its business, particularly on the Ctrip platform.

In addition to the collaboration referred to above, Ctrip had also been committed to the Company’s growth and development as a commercial enterprise, not just on the Ctrip platform. In April 2015, to help the Company expand its fleet size and operations, Ctrip extended, through entrusted bank loans, a RMB300 million loan facility to the Company which had been utilized in full (and now fully paid off).

Looking ahead, the Ocean Consortium believes that the Company will have synergies with Ctrip to provide wholesome services and travel experiences to customers of both platforms. Ctrip is currently partnering with third-party suppliers and offering a car hailing platform on its portal. Ctrip’s business in this area has grown very fast and the transaction volume as a whole for travel service on Ctrip’s portal is market leading in China. The Ocean Consortium believes that the Company’s car rental business can partner with Ctrip’s car hailing services and enhance its profitability and utilization rate.

The Ocean Consortium also believes that the Ctrip will have synergies in cross-selling car rental service with other travel services available on its portal. Ctrip is one of the most well-known brands in the travel services sector. In the car rental market, leisure travel car hire and business travel car hire will be the key use cases to drive the future growth. The Ocean Consortium believes that with close collaboration between Ctrip and the Company, the Company will benefit from cross-selling and leveraging against Ctrip’s current offering within the travel value chain and thereby achieve increased revenues.

Advantages as a Private Company

The Ocean Consortium believes that the operating environment has changed significantly since the Company’s initial public offering, and that, as a privately held company, the Company will have greater flexibility to focus on addressing the challenges to the Company’s long-term profitability without the constraints caused by the public equity market’s valuation of the Company and emphasis on short-term, period-to-period performance.

The Company faces a number of challenges in the marketplace, including, among others, (i) intense domestic competition in many of the segments in which the Company operates, (ii) uncertainties regarding the growth and profitability of the car rental and car service industry in China and (iii) the investment in system upgrading and marketing that will contribute to long-term growth and profitability.

Recently, the Company faced a downgrade in credit rating which will have an adverse effect on the Company’s outstanding bonds. Furthermore, the credit rating downgrade will increase the financing cost of the Company and thus negatively affect the Company’s financing performance.

These changes have increased the uncertainty and volatility inherent in the business models of companies similar to the Company. As a result, the Ocean Consortium is of the view that there is potential for considerably greater short- and medium-term volatility in the Company’s earnings. Responding to current market challenges will require tolerance for volatility in the performance of the Company’s business and a willingness to make business decisions focused on improving the Company’s long-term profitability. The Ocean Consortium believes that these strategies would not be effectively implemented if the Company were to continue to be publicly traded in the United States. Following the Merger, the Company’s management will have greater flexibility to focus on improving long-term profitability without the pressures exerted by the U.S. public market’s valuation of the Company and the emphasis on short-term, period-to-period performance.

The ROFO Purchases

For the Ocean Consortium, the reasons for and purposes of the ROFO Purchases is to enable the Ocean Consortium to accumulate Shares in the Company and ultimately consummate the Ocean Proposed Transaction.

(b)   Alternatives.

The Ocean Proposed Transaction

The Ocean Consortium decided to pursue the going-private transaction at this time because it wants to take advantage of (i) the synergies between the Company and the Ocean Consortium Members and (ii) benefits of the Company being a privately held company as described above. In the course of considering the going-private transaction, the Ocean Consortium did not consider alternative transaction structures, because the Ocean Consortium believed the Merger was the most direct and effective way to enable the Ocean Consortium to acquire ownership and control of the Company.

The ROFO Purchases

For the Ocean Consortium, alternatives to the ROFO Purchases are purchases of shares of the Company from third party in a private sale or on the public market.

(c)   Effects.

The Ocean Proposed Transaction

The Filing Persons anticipate that the Ocean Proposed Transaction would be effected pursuant to a merger of a special purpose entity with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger as the surviving company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of a share holding entity being formed by the Filing Persons (“Holdco”). Such a merger would result in, among other things, Holdco owning all of the issued and outstanding Common Shares (including Common Shares represented by ADSs), the ADSs ceasing to be listed for trading on the NYSE, the termination of the registration of the ADSs under Section 12 of the Securities Act, a change in the board of directors of the Company (as the surviving company in such merger) to consist solely of persons to be designated by the Ocean Consortium Members and a change in the Company’s memorandum and articles of association to reflect the fact that the Company would become a privately held company. As a privately held company, the Company will be relieved of many of the other expenses, burdens and constraints imposed on companies that are subject to the public reporting requirements under the U.S. federal securities laws, including the Exchange Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at this time, there is no definitive agreement or understanding with respect to the Ocean Proposed Transaction, or any other transaction that constitutes a Rule 13e-3 transaction, between the Company and any of the Filing Persons. At this time, the Special Committee has not made any decision with respect to the Company’s response to the Ocean Proposal or the Ocean Proposed Transaction, and no assurance can be given that any proposal, any definitive agreement or any transaction related to the Ocean Proposed Transaction will be entered into or consummated. The Ocean Proposal provides that a binding commitment with respect to the Ocean Proposed Transaction will result only from the execution of definitive agreements, and then only on the terms and conditions provided in such documents, which such terms and conditions will ultimately determine the effects the Ocean Proposed Transaction would have with respect to the Company, the Common Shares (including the ADSs) and the shareholders of the Company.

Table of Contents

In the event that the Company enters into a definitive agreement with the Ocean Consortium (or any affiliates thereof) with respect to the Ocean Proposed Transaction and the Ocean Proposed Transaction is submitted for the authorization and approval by the Company’s shareholders at an extraordinary general meeting, the Filing Persons intend to vote or give voting instructions with respect to all Common Shares beneficially owned by them, in favor of the authorization and approval of the Ocean Proposed Transaction and against any alternative transaction, and intend to roll over the Common Shares owned by them (including ADSs representing Common Shares) in exchange for equity interests in Holdco.

The ROFO Purchases

In the event the ROFO Purchases are consummated,  the Filing Persons’ ownership of Common Shares will change as described below:

The Ocean Filing Persons beneficially own (i) 538,764 Class A Common Shares (including 438,764 Class A Common Shares represented by 219,382 ADSs), and (ii) 8,599,211 Class B Common Shares, which represent approximately 6.5% of the total outstanding Common Shares.

The Ctrip Filing Persons beneficially own (i) 4,300,000 Class A Common Shares, and (ii) 15,168,193 Class B Common Shares, which represent approximately 13.9% of the total outstanding Common Shares.

If the ROFO Purchases are consummated, the Ctrip Filing Persons will beneficially own (i) 4,863,847 Class A Common Shares (including Class A Common Shares represented by ADSs), and (ii) 22,957,502 Class B Common Shares, which represent approximately 19.9% of the total outstanding Common Shares.

The Filing Persons may be deemed to beneficially own 20.4% of the total outstanding Common Shares. If the ROFO Purchases are consummated, the Filing Persons will beneficially own 26.4% of the total outstanding Common Shares.

Holders of Class A Common Shares are entitled to one vote per share, while holders of Class B Common Shares are entitled to ten votes per share. Accordingly, and based on the foregoing, the Class A Common Shares and the Class B Common Shares beneficially owned by the Filing Persons represent approximately 33.2% of the aggregate voting power of the total outstanding Common Shares. If the ROFO Purchases are consummated, the Class A Common Shares and the Class B Common Shares beneficially owned by the Filing Persons represent approximately 43.9% of the aggregate voting power of the total outstanding Common Shares.

The percentages set forth above in this Item 6 are calculated based on 74,279,018 Class A Common Shares and 65,638,557 Class B Common Shares, in each case, outstanding as of April 26, 2018, as set forth in the Company’s Annual Report.

If the ROFO Purchases are consummated, the Class A Common Shares and the Class B Common Shares beneficially owned by the Filing Persons represent approximately 43.9% of the aggregate voting power of the total outstanding Common Shares, thus giving the Ocean Consortium a blocking right to all corporate matters of the Company that requires a special resolution, which is a resolution passed by not less than two-thirds of votes casted by the Company’s shareholders.

Item 7            Purposes, Alternatives, Reasons and Effects

At this time, there is no definitive agreement or understanding with respect to the Ocean Proposed Transaction, or any other transaction that constitutes a Rule 13e-3 transaction, between the Company and any of the Filing Persons. The Filing Persons are filing this Schedule 13E-3 because the ROFO Purchases may be viewed as a step in a series of transactions having the reasonable likelihood or purpose of producing, directly or indirectly, one or more of the effects set forth in Rule 13e-3(a)(3)(ii) under the Exchange Act. For the Ocean Consortium, the purpose of the Ocean Proposed Transaction is to enable the Ocean Consortium to acquire 100% ownership of the Company, in a transaction in which the holders of the Shares of the Company unaffiliated with the Ocean Consortium will be cashed out in exchange for US$14.50 in cash per ADS or US$7.25 in cash per Common Share, so that the Ocean Consortium Members will bear the rewards and risks of the sole ownership of the Company after the completion of the Ocean Proposed Transaction, including any increases in value of the Company as a result of improvements to the Company’s operations or acquisitions of other businesses.

At this time, the Special Committee has not made any decision with respect to the Company’s response to the Ocean Proposal or the Ocean Proposed Transaction, and no assurance can be given that any proposal, any definitive agreement or any transaction related to the Ocean Proposed Transaction will be entered into or consummated. The Ocean Proposal provides that a binding commitment with respect to the Ocean Proposed Transaction will result only from the execution of definitive agreements, and then only on the terms and conditions provided in such documents. In the event a definitive agreement or understanding is entered into with respect to the Ocean Proposed Transaction, the Filing Persons anticipate that the Ocean Proposed Transaction would likely be effected pursuant to a merger of a special purpose entity with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger as the surviving company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco. Such a merger would result in, among other things, Holdco owning all of the issued and outstanding Common Shares (including Common Shares represented by ADSs), the ADSs ceasing to be listed for trading on the NYSE, the termination of the registration of the ADSs under Section 12 of the Securities Act, a change in the board of directors of the Company (as the surviving company in such merger) to consist solely of persons to be designated by the Ocean Consortium Members and a change in the Company’s memorandum and articles of association to reflect that the Company would become a privately held company. However, the terms and conditions of such a definitive agreement or understanding, if any, will ultimately determine the effects the Ocean Proposed Transaction would have with respect to the Company, the Common Shares (including the ADSs) and the shareholders of the Company.

Item 8            Fairness of the Transaction

The Filing Persons are filing this Schedule 13E-3 because the ROFO Purchases may be viewed as a step in a series of transactions having the reasonable likelihood or purpose of producing, directly or indirectly, one or more of the effects set forth in Rule 13e-3(a)(3)(ii) under the Exchange Act. Under SEC rules governing going-private transactions, each Filing Person is required to express its belief as to the fairness of the Ocean Proposed Transaction or the ROFO Purchases to the holders of securities of the Company unaffiliated with the Ocean Consortium. Each Filing Person is making the statements included in this section solely for the purpose of complying with the requirements of Rule 13e-3 and related rules under the Exchange Act. The Ocean Consortium has interests in the Ocean Proposed Transaction or the ROFO Purchases that are different from, and/or in addition to, those of the other shareholders of the Company.

The Ocean Proposed Transaction

At this time, there is no definitive agreement or understanding with respect to the Ocean Proposed Transaction, or any other transaction that constitutes a Rule 13e-3 transaction, between the Company and any of the Filing Persons with respect to which the Filing Persons would be able to assess the fairness to the unaffiliated security holders of the Company. At this time, the Special Committee has not made any decision with respect to the Company’s response to the Ocean Proposal or the Ocean Proposed Transaction, and no assurance can be given that any proposal, any definitive agreement or any transaction related to the Ocean Proposed Transaction will be entered into or consummated. Accordingly, this item is not applicable at this time.

The Ocean Consortium believes that the ROFO Purchases will provide GS and/or Ignition with immediate liquidity with respect to the ROFO Subject Securities for a certain and fair value, without having to bear the uncertainty associated with a going-private transaction.

The Ocean Consortium believes that the interests of holders of securities of the Company unaffiliated with the Ocean Consortium will be represented by the Special Committee, which will negotiate the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement with the assistance of its independent legal and financial advisors. The Ocean Consortium will negotiate a transaction that would be most favorable to it, and not to the holders of securities of the Company unaffiliated with the Ocean Consortium and, accordingly, will not negotiate the Ocean Proposal with a goal of obtaining terms that were substantively or procedurally fair to the holders of securities of the Company unaffiliated with the Ocean Consortium. None of the Ocean Consortium Members or their respective affiliates participated in the deliberations of the Special Committee regarding, nor received any advice from the Special Committee’s independent legal or financial advisor as to, the fairness of the Ocean Proposed Transaction to the holders of securities of the Company unaffiliated with the Ocean Consortium.

Furthermore, none of the Ocean Consortium Members or their respective affiliates undertook a formal evaluation of the fairness of the Ocean Proposed Transaction to the holders of securities of the Company unaffiliated with the Ocean Consortium. No financial advisor provided any of the Ocean Consortium Members or their affiliates with any analysis or opinion with respect to the fairness of the Ocean Proposed Transaction to holders of securities of the Company unaffiliated with the Ocean Consortium.

Based on the knowledge and analysis of available information regarding the Company, each of the Filing Persons believe that the Ocean Proposed Transaction will be conducted in a manner that is procedurally and substantively fair to holders of securities of the Company unaffiliated with the Ocean Consortium for the following reasons: (i) price offered by the Ocean Consortium at US$14.50 in cash per ADS or US$7.25 in cash per Common Share is higher than the merger consideration offered by the Chairman Consortium, and (ii) the Ocean Proposed Transaction will be evaluated by the Special Committee with the assistance of its independent legal and financial advisors.

The ROFO Purchases

The ROFO Purchases are private sales of the Shares of the Company being negotiated between the Ctrip Filing Persons and the sellers, GS and Ignition. The Ocean Consortium believes that GS and Ignition are sophisticated institutional investors capable of protecting their investment interests. Both GS and Ignition are assisted with its legal advisors in connection with the ROFO Purchases. The Ocean Proposal and the price offered thereunder was publicly available and made known to GS and Ignition by the Ctrip Filing Persons during the negotiation of the ROFO Purchase. Pursuant to the terms negotiated between the Ctrip Filing Persons and GS and Ignitions, Ctrip will pay no less than US$7.25 for each Class B Common Share, a price that equals to the offer price under the Ocean Proposal, and no less than US$6.75 for each Class A Common Share and US$13.50 for each ADS, prices that equal to the prices offered under the Chairman Proposal. In addition, the Ocean Consortium believes that the ROFO Purchases will provide GS and/or Ignition with immediate liquidity with respect to the ROFO Subject Securities for a certain and fair value, without having to bear the uncertainty associated with a going-private transaction. As a result, each Filing Persons believes that the ROFO Purchases are fair to GS and Ignition.

None of the Filing Persons or their respective affiliates undertook a formal evaluation of the fairness of the Ocean Proposed Transaction or the ROFO Purchases to the holders of securities of the Company unaffiliated with the Ocean Consortium. No financial advisor provided any of the Filing Persons or their affiliates with any analysis or opinion with respect to the fairness of the Ocean Proposed Transaction or the ROFO Purchases to the holders of securities of the Company unaffiliated with the Ocean Consortium.

Based on the foregoing, each of the Filing Persons believe that the ROFO Purchases will be conducted in a manner that is procedurally and substantively fair to holders of securities of the Company unaffiliated with the Ocean Consortium for the following reasons: (i) price offered by the Ocean Consortium to holders of securities of the Company unaffiliated with the Ocean Consortium at US$14.50 in cash per ADS or US$7.25 in cash per Common Share is (A) higher than the purchase price per Class A Share and (B) same as the purchase price per Class B Share offered to GS and Ignition under the ROFO Purchases, and (ii) the completion of the ROFO Purchases is a step in a series of transactions leading up to the Ocean Proposed Transaction, which will be evaluated by the Special Committee with the assistance of its independent legal and financial advisors.

Item 9            Reports, Opinions, Appraisals and Negotiations

The Filing Persons are filing this Schedule 13E-3 because the ROFO Purchases may be viewed as a step in a series of transactions having the reasonable likelihood or purpose of producing, directly or indirectly, one or more of the effects set forth in Rule 13e-3(a)(3)(ii) under the Exchange Act. At this time, there is no definitive agreement or understanding with respect to the Ocean Proposed Transaction, or any other transaction that constitutes a Rule 13e-3 transaction, between the Company and any of the Filing Persons. At this time, the Special Committee has not made any decision with respect to the Company’s response to the Ocean Proposal or the Ocean Proposed Transaction, and no assurance can be given that any proposal, any definitive agreement or any transaction related to the Ocean Proposed Transaction will be entered into or consummated. Accordingly, at this time, no report or opinion or appraisal from an outside party has been received by the Filing Persons that is materially related to the ROFO Purchases or a Rule 13e-3 transaction.

Item 10     Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

The Ocean Proposed Transaction

The Filing Persons are filing this Schedule 13E-3 because the ROFO Purchases may be viewed as a step in a series of transactions having the reasonable likelihood or purpose of producing, directly or indirectly, one or more of the effects set forth in Rule 13e-3(a)(3)(ii) under the Exchange Act. At this time, there is no definitive agreement or understanding with respect to the Ocean Proposed Transaction, or any other transaction that constitutes a Rule 13e-3 transaction, between the Company and any of the Filing Persons, with respect to which the source and amount of funds or other consideration could be stated in response to this item. At this time, the Special Committee has not made any decision with respect to the Company’s response to the Ocean Proposal or the Ocean Proposed Transaction, and no assurance can be given that any proposal, any definitive agreement or any transaction related to the Ocean Proposed Transaction will be entered into or consummated.

The Ocean Consortium estimates that the total amount of funds necessary to complete the Ocean Proposed Transaction is anticipated to be approximately US$894.2 million (including estimated transaction and termination fees), assuming no exercise of dissenters’ rights by shareholders of the Company. This amount includes cash to be paid (i) to holders of securities of the Company unaffiliated with the Ocean Consortium and (ii) to holders of awards granted under the Share Incentive Plans, as well as the related costs and expenses in connection with the Ocean Proposed Transaction. It does not include the value of the securities of the Company currently owned by the Ocean Consortium Members (which will be cancelled and converted into ordinary shares of Holdco following the Ocean Proposed Transaction without payment of any consideration therefor), Shares held by the Ocean Consortium Members which will be rolled over into Holdco in the Ocean Proposed Transaction and treasury Shares held by the Company or any of their Subsidiaries(which will be cancelled for no consideration in the Ocean Proposed Transaction).

Equity Financing

The Ocean Consortium expects to provide US$830.2 million, the anticipated total amount of funds necessary to complete the Ocean Proposed Transaction, through cash contributions contemplated by the equity commitment to be made by the Ocean Consortium Members. The source of the equity commitment of the Ocean Consortium Members will be the Ctrip Filing Persons’,  the Ocean Filing Persons’ and any additional Ocean Consortium Members’ funds available for investment.

Debt Financing

As described above, the Ocean Consortium does not intend to finance the Ocean Proposed Transaction with any proceeds of debt financing. In the event that the Existing Notes are required to be redeemed and/or repurchased in connection with the Ocean Proposed Transaction, the Ocean Consortium intends to procure sufficient debt financing to repurchase and/or redeem the Existing Notes in full and as such, the Ocean Consortium does not expect the Ocean Proposed Transaction to be conditioned upon receipt of consent from, or any other action by, any holders of the Existing Notes.

The ROFO Purchases

The total amount of funds required to complete the ROFO Purchases will be approximately US$60,278,465. The source of the funds for the ROFO Purchases will be the Ctrip Filing Persons’ funds available for investment.

Item 11     Interest in Securities of the Subject Company

The Board of Directors

eHi Car Services Limited

Unit 12/F, Building No. 5

Guosheng Center, 388 Daduhe Road

Shanghai, 200062

People’s Republic of China

Dear Directors:

Ocean Link Partners Limited, a private equity firm dedicated to investing in travel-related industries in China (together with its affiliates, the “Buyer”), is pleased to submit this non-binding proposal to acquire all outstanding common shares (the “Shares”) of eHi Car Services Limited (the “Company”) in a going-private transaction (the “Acquisition”). We have been in discussions with certain significant shareholders of the Company and we are confident that we will obtain their support. We also welcome other existing shareholders, including management shareholders, to join our consortium.

Our proposed purchase price for each American depositary share of the Company (“ADS”, each representing two Shares) is US$14.5 in cash.  We believe that our proposal provides an attractive opportunity for the Company’s shareholders. Our proposed purchase price represents a 16.5% premium to the closing trading price of the Company’s ADS on March 29, 2018, the last trading day prior to the date hereof, and a 18.9% premium to the volume-weighted average closing price of the Company’s ADS during the 30 trading days immediately prior to the date of this proposal.

The terms and conditions upon which we are prepared to pursue the Acquisition are set forth below.  We are confident in our ability to consummate an Acquisition as outlined in this letter.

1.                                      Purchase Price.  The consideration payable for each ADS will be US$14.5 in cash, or US$7.25 in cash per Share.

2.                                      Financing.  We intend to finance the Acquisition with a combination of debt and equity capital.  Equity financing will be provided from the Buyer in the form of cash and certain rollover equity capital in the Company. We are confident that we can timely secure adequate financing to consummate the Acquisition.

3.                                      Due Diligence.  We believe that we will be in a position to complete customary due diligence for the Acquisition in a timely manner and in parallel with discussions on the Definitive Agreements. We would like to ask the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) to accommodate such due diligence request and approve the provision of confidential information relating to the Company and its business to possible sources of debt and equity financing subject to a customary form of confidentiality agreement.

4.                                      Definitive Agreements.  We are prepared to promptly negotiate and finalize the definitive agreements (the “Definitive Agreements”) providing for the Acquisition and related transactions. This proposal is subject to execution of the Definitive Agreements. We expect that the Definitive Agreements will contain representations, warranties, covenants and conditions which are typical, customary and appropriate for transactions of this type.

5.                                      Process.  We believe that the Acquisition will provide superior value to the Company’s shareholders. We recognize that the Board will evaluate the Acquisition independently before it can make its determination to endorse it.

6.                                      No Binding Commitment. This proposal does not constitute any binding commitment with respect to the Acquisition.  A binding commitment will result only from the execution of Definitive Agreements, and then will be on terms and conditions provided in such documentation.

In closing, we would like to express our commitment to bringing this Acquisition to a successful and timely conclusion. Should you have any questions regarding this proposal, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Section 2.2                                    Negotiation of Sponsor Agreements.  During the term of this Agreement, each Party shall negotiate in good faith customary definitive documentation in connection with the Transaction, including, without limitation, (i) a customary support agreement, pursuant to which each Party will agree, among other things, to vote such Party’s Target Shares in support of the transaction, (ii) documentation providing for each Party’s cash and/or rollover equity investment in Parent, (iii) documentation governing the actions of the Parties in connection with the Transaction following the execution of the Merger Agreement and prior to the Closing and (iv) documentation governing the economic and governing terms of each Party’s investment in Parent following the Closing which, in the case of this sub-clause (iv), shall include customary terms for transactions of a similar nature, and such documentation shall take effect immediately upon the Closing.

(a)                                 Ocean shall have the sole discretion to engage, terminate or change legal, financial or other Advisors on behalf of Parent.

(b)                                 Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.3(a), if a Party requires separate representation in connection with specific issues arising out of the Transaction, such Party may retain other Advisors to advise it; provided that such Party shall (i) provide prior notice to the other Parties of such retention and (ii) subject to Section 3.1 below, be solely responsible for the fees and expenses of such separate Advisors.

Section 2.4                                    Exchange Act Reporting.  During the term of this Agreement, each Party shall coordinate with respect to acquisitions or dispositions of beneficial ownership of securities in the Target in order to facilitate each Party’s compliance with Schedule 13D under the Exchange Act.

(a)                                 Upon consummation of the Transaction, Parent shall or shall cause the Surviving Company to reimburse the Parties for, or pay on behalf of the Parties, as the case may be, all of their out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Transaction (“Consortium Transaction Expenses”), including the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of Advisors retained by the Parties and reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements payable to any separate Advisors retained by Ocean and Ctrip pursuant to Section 2.3(b).

(c)                                  If the failure to enter into the Merger Agreement as described in Section 3.1(b), or the failure of the Transaction to be consummated prior to termination of the Merger Agreement, results primarily from the unilateral breach of this Agreement by one or more Parties, then the breaching Party or Parties shall be responsible to pay the full amount of the Consortium Transaction Expenses and reimburse any non-breaching Party for all of its costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Transaction, including the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of Advisors retained by the Parties pursuant to Section 2.3(b), without prejudice to any claims, rights and remedies otherwise available to such non-breaching Party.

(d)                                 The Parties shall be entitled to receive any termination, break-up or other fees or amounts payable to Parent by the Target pursuant to the Merger Agreement, to be allocated pro rata among the Parties in proportion to the number of Parent Shares each would hold if the Closing had occurred, net of all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Transaction, including, without limitation, the Consortium Transaction Expenses.
