Alibaba will pay USD 27.60 in cash per US traded American depository share in a definitive merger agreement over Youku Tudou. This is around USD 1 more than the initial takeover bid made last month by Alibaba. The e-commerce giant owns more than 18% of Youku Tudou already. Deal was approved by Youku Tudou’s board.
