(a) In the event that the Company reasonably believes that there is a breach by any Purchaser of any of its representations and warranties in Section 4.04 or 5.04, the Company may, at its option, provide a written notice to such Purchaser describing the basis for such belief of the Company. Each Purchaser hereby agrees that, upon delivery of such notice and unless such Purchaser has provided proof to the satisfaction of the Company that there is not and has not been any breach by such Purchaser of Section 4.04 or 5.04, the Company has the right to elect to, in its sole and absolute discretion and at any time:

(i) redeem all or a portion of the Subscription Shares of such Purchaser at a redemption price per Company Share equal to the lower of the Fair Market Value per Company Share or US$2.15272 (which represents a 20% discount to the per Company Share subscription price under this Agreement), as appropriately adjusted for any share dividends, combinations, reclassifications, splits or other similar events with respect to the Company Shares. For purposes of this Section 8.05(a)(i), “Fair Market Value” means (A) upon the Company’s IPO, the average reported closing price of a Company Share on their principal trading market for the three trading days immediately prior to the date of the redemption; or (B) prior to the Company’s IPO, the fair market value on the date of redemption as determined by the board of directors of the Company in good faith;

(ii) refuse to recognize any Transfer of the Purchaser Owned Shares of such Purchaser in the register of members of the Company without assigning any reason therefor; and/or

(b) Notwithstanding Section 8.05(a), in the event that the Company (x) reasonably believes that there is any breach by a Purchaser of any of its representations and warranties in Section 4.04 or 5.04, as applicable, and (y) determines that the actions which may be taken pursuant to clauses (i) through (iii) in Section 8.05(a) would not adequately compensate the Company compared to the harm caused by such Purchaser’s breach of Section 4.04 or 5.04, upon written notice by the Company, such Purchaser shall pay to the Company an amount equal to 100% of the Total Subscription Price of such Purchaser (the “Liquidated Damages”). The Parties intend that the Liquidated Damages constitute compensation, and not a penalty. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Company’s harm caused by a breach of Section 4.04 or 5.04 would be impossible or very difficult to be accurately estimated at the time of the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and that the Liquidated Damages are a reasonable estimate of the anticipated or actual harm that might arise from such breach.

(iii) agrees to vote, or cause to be voted, the Subscription Shares or any other shares in the Company that are owned by such Purchaser or its Affiliates from time to time and at any time after the date of this Agreement (the “Purchaser Owned Shares”), at every meeting (or in connection with any action by written consent) of the Company’s shareholders at which such matters are considered and at any adjournment or postponement thereof prior to the Effective Event, (A) in favor of, and (B) against any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that could reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, delay, discourage, adversely affect or inhibit, the Dual-Class Structure and Re-Designation and the adoption of any amendment to the Articles of the Company to reflect the Dual-Class Structure and Re-Designation and other changes as necessary or appropriate to facilitate an IPO of the Company;

(iv) agrees to cause any director designated by such Purchaser and/or its Affiliates pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement to vote, at every meeting of the Company’s Board at which such matters are considered and at any adjournment or postponement thereof (or execute and deliver any unanimous written resolution of the Board), (A) in favor of, and (B) against any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that could reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, delay, discourage, adversely affect or inhibit, the Dual-Class Structure and Re-Designation and the adoption of any amendment to the Articles of the Company to reflect the Dual-Class Structure and Re-Designation and other changes as necessary or appropriate to facilitate an IPO of the Company; and

(v) agrees to promptly execute, deliver or enter into any other agreement, document, consent, approval or instrument, and take any other actions, which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to effect the Dual-Class Structure and Re-Designation and the adoption of any amendment to the Articles of the Company to reflect the Dual-Class Structure and Re-Designation and other changes as necessary or appropriate to facilitate an IPO of the Company.

(c) Each Purchaser, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints each of the Chairman of Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company from time to time a true and lawful proxy and attorney-in-fact (each, an “Attorney”) of such Purchaser and any of its Affiliates owning any Purchaser Owned Shares, with full power and authority, in the name and on behalf of such Purchaser and its Affiliates, (i) to exercise their voting rights with respect to all of the Purchaser Owned Shares in accordance with Subsections (b)(iii) and (b)(v) above in any vote of the Company’s shareholders or proposed action by written consent by the Company’s shareholders, and (ii) to make, execute and deliver all resolutions, consents and other writings and to do such things and to take such actions in each case to the extent the applicable Attorney considers necessary to exercise the voting rights of such Purchaser or any of its Affiliates pursuant to clause (i) above, as fully as could such Purchaser or its Affiliate, as applicable, if personally present and acting. The above proxy and power of attorney is given to secure the performance of the duties of each Purchaser and its Affiliates under Subsections (b) (iii) and (b)(v) above. Each Purchaser shall, and shall procure its Affiliates, take such further action or execute such other instruments as may be necessary to effectuate the intent of this proxy. The power of attorney granted by each Purchaser and its Affiliates herein is a durable power of attorney and shall survive the dissolution, bankruptcy, death or incapacity of such Purchaser and any of its Affiliates. The above proxy and power of attorney from each Purchaser and its Affiliates to the Attorneys is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable and continuously effective during the period from the date hereof until the earlier of (i) the first date on which such Purchaser and its Affiliates no longer own any Purchaser Owned Shares or (ii) the Effective Event.

 

25


(d) Each Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that, prior to the Effective Event, unless otherwise requested or permitted by the Company in writing, (i) such Purchaser shall not, and shall procure that its Affiliates do not, in any way and for any purpose, (A) claim that any or all of the Purchaser Owned Shares, are of a separate class of shares in the Company, individually or collectively with any shares in the Company held by any other Person, from the other Company Shares; or (B) request that the Company acknowledge that the Purchaser Owned Shares are in a separate class of shares or seek its consent as a holder of a separate class of shares in the Company, individually or collectively with any shares in the Company held by any other Person, from the other Company Shares, in relation to any matter to be voted upon or otherwise requiring the consent of any of the Company’s shareholders; and (ii) such Purchaser shall not, and shall procure that its Affiliates do not, in any way and for any purpose vote or attempt to vote any or all of the Purchaser Owned Shares in a separate shareholder class meeting or by way of a written resolution of holder(s) of a separate class of shares, individually or collectively with any shares held by any other Person, from the other Company Shares, in respect of any matter to be voted upon or otherwise requiring the consent of any of the Company’s shareholders.

(e) For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 10.02 does not obligate the Company to implement a dual-class share structure on terms specified in Section 10.02(a). The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the final terms of any dual-class share structure adopted by the Company shall be as determined by the Board and as approved by the requisite shareholders under applicable Laws and any applicable provisions of the Restated Articles and the Shareholders Agreement, and such terms may be different from those specified in Section 10.02(a).

Section 10.03. Transfer. Without prejudice to any other restriction on Transfer applicable to the Purchaser Owned Shares, each Purchaser shall not, and shall procure its Affiliates do not, directly or indirectly, Transfer any Purchaser Owned Shares unless the transferee of such proposed Transfer (except for any transferee otherwise designated by the Company) duly executes and delivers to the Company an agreement in a form satisfactory to the Company pursuant to which such transferee shall agree to be bound by Sections 10.01, 10.02, 10.03, 10.08 and 10.13 as if it were a Purchaser hereunder. After a Transfer of any Purchaser Owned Shares in accordance with the foregoing sentence, in the event of any amendment to Section 10.01, 10.02, 10.03, 10.08 or 10.13 of this Agreement, such transferee shall be deemed the “Purchaser” in respect of the Purchaser Owned Shares subject to such Transfer in lieu of the Transferring Purchaser for purposes of Section 10.08.

 

26


Section 10.04. Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, permitted assigns, heirs, executors and administrators of the Parties. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, this Agreement and the rights and obligations herein of a Purchaser may not be assigned by such Purchaser without the prior written consent of the Company, and the rights and obligations herein of the Company in respect of a Purchaser may not be assigned by the Company without the prior written consent of such Purchaser.

Except as expressly provided elsewhere in this Agreement, a person who is not a Party to this Agreement shall not have any rights under the Contracts (Right of Third Parties) Ordinance (Chapter 623, Laws of Hong Kong) to enforce any terms of this Agreement. This does not affect any right or remedy of a third party which exists, or is available, apart from the Contracts (Right of Third Parties) Ordinance.

Section 10.07. Notices. Except as may be otherwise provided herein, all notices, requests, waivers and other communications made pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be conclusively deemed to have been duly given (a) when hand delivered to the other Parties, upon delivery; (b) when sent by facsimile at the number set forth in Schedule D, upon receipt of confirmation of error-free transmission; (c) seven (7) Business Days after deposit in the mail as air mail or certified mail, receipt requested, postage prepaid and addressed to the other Parties as set forth in Schedule D; or (d) three (3) Business Days after deposit with an overnight delivery service, postage prepaid, addressed to the Parties as set forth in Schedule D with next business-day delivery guaranteed, provided that the sending Party receives a confirmation of delivery from the delivery service provider. Each Party making a communication hereunder by facsimile shall promptly confirm by telephone to the Party to whom such communication was addressed each communication made by it by facsimile pursuant hereto but the absence of such confirmation shall not affect the validity of any such communication. A Party may change or supplement the addresses given above, or designate additional addresses, for purposes of this Section 10.07 by giving, the other Parties written notice of the new address in the manner set forth above.

Section 10.08. Amendments. Subject to Section 10.03, any term of this Agreement may be amended (i) with the written consent of each Party or (ii) as such term applies between the Company and any Purchaser, with the written consents of both the Company and such Purchaser (and without the consent or approval of any other Purchaser).

 

27


Section 10.09. Delays or Omissions; Waivers. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any Party, upon any breach or default of any Party under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such Party nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of any similar breach of default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any Party may waive any of its rights under this Agreement without obtaining the consent of any other Party. Any waiver by any Party of any condition or breach of default under this Agreement must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing. All remedies, either under this Agreement or by Laws or otherwise afforded to any Party shall be cumulative and not alternative.

Section 10.10. Interpretation; Titles and Subtitles. This Agreement shall be construed according to its fair language. The rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting Party shall not be employed in interpreting this Agreement. The titles of the sections and subsections of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in construing this Agreement. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all references to sections and schedules herein are to sections and schedules of this Agreement. Unless a provision hereof expressly provides otherwise: (i) the term “or” is not exclusive; (ii) the terms “herein”, “hereof”, and other similar words refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular section, subsection, paragraph, clause, or other subdivision; (iii) the masculine, feminine, and neuter genders will each be deemed to include the others; and (iv) whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”

Section 10.11. Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. This Agreement shall become effective with respect to each Party, upon all Parties’ due execution and delivery of this Agreement.

Section 10.12. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable, then such provision shall be construed, to the extent feasible, so as to render the provision enforceable and to provide for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby on substantially the same terms as originally set forth herein, and if no feasible interpretation would save such provision, it shall be severed from the remainder of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect unless the severed provision is essential to the rights or benefits intended by the Parties. In such event, the Parties shall use best efforts to negotiate, in good faith, a substitute, valid and enforceable provision or agreement which most nearly affects the Parties’ intent in entering into this Agreement.

 

28


Section 10.13. Dispute Resolution. Any dispute, controversy or claim (each, a “Dispute”) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the interpretation, breach, termination, validity or invalidity thereof, shall be referred to arbitration upon the demand of either party to the dispute with notice (the “Arbitration Notice”) to the other. The Dispute shall be settled by arbitration in Hong Kong by the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (the “HKIAC”) in accordance with the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre Administered Arbitration Rules (the “HKIAC Rules”) in force at the time when the Arbitration Notice is submitted. The seat of arbitration shall be Hong Kong. There shall be three (3) arbitrators. The complainant and the respondent to such dispute shall each select one (1) arbitrator within thirty (30) days after giving or receiving the demand for arbitration (the “Selection Period”). Such arbitrators shall be freely selected, and the parties shall not be limited in their selection to any prescribed list. The chairman of the HKIAC shall select the third (3rd) arbitrator. If either party to the arbitration fails to appoint an arbitrator with the Selection Period, the relevant appointment shall be made by the chairman of the HKIAC. The arbitral proceedings shall be conducted in English. To the extent that the HKIAC Rules are in conflict with the provisions of this Section 10.13, including the provisions concerning the appointment of the arbitrators, this Section 10.13 shall prevail. Each party to the arbitration shall cooperate with each other party to the arbitration in making full disclosure of and providing complete access to all information and documents requested by such other party in connection with such arbitral proceedings, subject only to any confidentiality obligations binding on such party. The award of the arbitral tribunal shall be final and binding upon the parties thereto, and the prevailing party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for enforcement of such award. Any party to the Dispute shall be entitled to seek preliminary injunctive relief, if possible, from any court of competent jurisdiction pending the constitution of the arbitral tribunal. During the course of the arbitral tribunal’s adjudication of the Dispute, this Agreement shall continue to be performed except with respect to the part in dispute and under adjudication.

Section 10.14. Expenses. Each Party shall bear its own costs and expenses in connection with the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.
