Item 1. Security and Issuer
This statement relates to the ordinary shares, par value $0.001 per share (“Ordinary Shares”), including Ordinary Shares represented by American Depositary Shares (“ADSs,” each ADS representing 20 Ordinary Shares), of CNinsure Inc. (the “Issuer”). The Issuer’s principal executive office is located at 22/F, Yinhai Building, No. 299 Yanjiang Zhong Road, Guangzhou, 510110 Guangdong Province, People’s Republic of China.
Item 2. Identity and Background
This statement of beneficial ownership on Schedule 13D is being filed jointly by Yinan Hu, Kingsford Resources Limited (“Kingsford Resources”), High Rank Investments Limited (“High Rank Investments”) and Qiuping Lai (together, the “Reporting Persons”) pursuant to Rule 13d-1(k) promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The Reporting Persons may, as among themselves, be deemed to constitute a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act.
The Reporting Persons have entered into a consortium agreement as described under Item 4 with CDH Inservice Limited (the “Existing Investor”) and TPG Asia V MU, Inc. (the “Sponsor”), an affiliate of TPG Capital. The Existing Investor reported beneficial ownership of 124,688,524 of the Issuer’s Ordinary Shares in a Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on May 16, 2011. The Sponsor has informed the Reporting Persons and the Existing Investor that it does not beneficially own any of the Issuer’s Ordinary Shares. As a result of the transactions described under Items 4 and 5 of this statement, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to constitute a “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) with the Existing Investor with respect to the matters described in Item 4 of this statement.
Each Reporting Person hereby disclaims beneficial ownership of any Ordinary Shares of the Issuer beneficially owned by the Existing Investor, any other Reporting Person or any other person, and hereby disclaims membership in a “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) with any other Reporting Person, the Existing Investor or any other person, and this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as acknowledging that any of the Reporting Persons, for any or all purposes, beneficially owns any Ordinary Shares of the Issuer beneficially owned by any other person or is a member of such a group with any other person.
This Schedule 13D supersedes the Schedule 13G filed by the Reporting Persons with the SEC on January 31, 2008, as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto filed with the SEC on January 13, 2009, by Amendment No. 2 thereto filed with the SEC on January 20, 2010 and by Amendment No. 3 thereto filed with the SEC on February 11, 2011. China United Financial Services Holdings Limited and CAA Holdings Company Limited, each of which was a filing party on the original Schedule 13G and Amendment No. 1 thereto, subsequently distributed all of the Issuer’s Ordinary Shares held by them to their respective shareholders.
The agreement between the Reporting Persons relating to the joint filing of this statement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. Information with respect to each of the Reporting Persons is given solely by such Reporting Person, and no Reporting Person assumes responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the information concerning the other Reporting Persons, except as otherwise provided in Rule 13d-1(k).

During the last five years, none of Yinan Hu, Qiuping Lai, Kingsford Resources, High Rank Investments or, to the knowledge of Kingsford Resources or High Rank Investments, (a) any executive officer or director of either of them; (b) any person controlling either of them; or (c) any executive officer or director of any corporation or other person ultimately in control of either of them, has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and, as a result of such proceeding, is or was subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
The Reporting Persons, the Sponsor and the Existing Investor have proposed to acquire all of the Issuer’s Ordinary Shares (including Ordinary Shares represented by ADSs), other than Excluded Shares (as defined in Item 4), for cash consideration equal to US$19.00 per ADS (US$0.95 per Ordinary Share). The Reporting Persons, the Sponsor and the Existing Investor anticipate that such consideration for the Proposed Transaction (as defined in Item 4 of this statement), plus additional amounts to cash out outstanding options to purchase Ordinary Shares, restricted shares and restricted share units, as well as certain transaction costs to be incurred in connection with the Proposed Transaction, will be funded in part with equity capital contributed to Holdco (as defined in Item 4 of this statement) by the Reporting Persons, Sponsor and the Existing Investor, and that the Proposed Transaction will not be subject to any debt financing condition. The Excluded Shares, which are held by the Reporting Persons and the Existing Investor, will be cancelled for no consideration (subject to any exceptions to be agreed among the Reporting Persons, the Sponsor and the Existing Investor).
The information set forth in or incorporated by reference in Items 4 and 5 of this statement is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 3.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
On May 14, 2011, the Sponsor, Yinan Hu, for himself and for other entities affiliated with him, and the Existing Investor submitted a non-binding proposal (the “Proposal”) to the Issuer’s Board of Directors related to the proposed acquisition of all of the outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Issuer, excluding Ordinary Shares held by the Reporting Persons (other than such Ordinary Shares held by the Reporting Persons as would represent approximately 5% of the currently outstanding Ordinary Shares, which will be cashed out in the Proposed Transaction) and held by the Existing Investor (other than such Ordinary Shares held by the Existing Investor as would represent approximately 7.4% of the currently outstanding Ordinary Shares, which will be cashed out in the Proposed Transaction) (collectively, the “Excluded Shares”). The description of the Proposal in this Item 4 is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Proposal, which has been filed as Exhibit 99.3 to this Schedule 13D and which is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 4.
To implement the Proposal, the Sponsor intends to incorporate a new company under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“Holdco”) and cause Holdco to form a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary (“Merger Sub”) under the laws of the Cayman Islands. The Reporting Persons, the Sponsor and the Existing Investor propose to acquire, through a merger of Merger Sub with and into the Issuer in which the Issuer will be the surviving corporation, all of the Issuer’s Ordinary Shares (including Ordinary Shares represented by ADSs), excluding the Excluded Shares (the “Proposed Transaction”), for cash consideration equal to US$19.00 per ADS (US$0.95 per Ordinary Share). As noted in the Proposal, the Reporting Persons, the Existing Investor and the Sponsor expect that the independent members of the board of directors of the Issuer will proceed to consider the Proposal and the Proposed Transaction.
Neither the Issuer nor any of the Reporting Persons, the Sponsor or the Existing Investor are obligated to complete the Proposed Transaction, and a binding commitment with respect to the Proposed Transaction will result only from the execution of definitive documents, and then will be on the terms provided in such documentation.
If the Proposed Transaction is completed, the ADSs would be delisted from the NASDAQ Global Select Market, and the Issuer’s obligation to file periodic reports under the Exchange Act would terminate. In addition, consummation of the Proposed Transaction could result in one or more of the actions specified in clauses (a)-(j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, including the acquisition or disposition of securities of the Issuer, a merger or other extraordinary transaction involving the Issuer, a change to the board of directors of the Issuer (as the surviving company in the merger) to consist solely of persons to be designated by Kingsford Resources, the Sponsor and the Existing Investor, and a change in the Issuer’s memorandum and articles of association to reflect that the Issuer would become a privately held company.
