ARTICLE I

THE MERGER

SECTION 1.01 The Merger. Upon the terms of this Agreement and subject to the conditions set forth in Article VII, and in accordance with the CICL, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company.

SECTION 1.02 Closing; Closing Date. Unless this Agreement shall have been terminated pursuant to Section 8.01, and unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing between the Company, Parent and Merger Sub, the closing for the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place at 9:00 p.m. (Hong Kong time) at the offices of Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson, 9/F Gloucester Tower, The Landmark, 15 Queen’s Road Central, Hong Kong on a date to be specified by the Company and Parent (the “Closing Date”), which shall be no later than the fifteenth (15th) Business Day immediately following the day on which the last to be satisfied or, if permissible, waived of the conditions set forth in Article VII (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions) shall be satisfied or, if permissible, waived in accordance with this Agreement.

SECTION 1.03 Effective Time. On the Closing Date, Merger Sub and the Company shall execute a plan of merger (the “Plan of Merger”) substantially in the form set out in Annex A and the parties shall file the Plan of Merger and other documents required under the CICL to effect the Merger with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands as provided by Section 233 of the CICL. The Merger shall become effective on the date specified in the Plan of Merger (the “Effective Time”).

SECTION 1.04 Memorandum and Articles of Association of Surviving Corporation. Subject to Section 6.05(a), at the Effective Time, the memorandum and articles of association of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the memorandum and articles of association of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended as provided by the CICL and such memorandum and articles of association; provided, however, that, at the Effective Time, all references in the memorandum and articles of association to the name of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended to refer to Focus Media Holding Limited.

 

2


SECTION 1.05 Directors and Officers. The parties hereto shall take all actions necessary so that (a) the directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the initial directors of the Surviving Corporation, and (b) the officers (other than the directors) of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the initial officers of the Surviving Corporation, in each case, unless otherwise determined by Parent prior to the Effective Time, and until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified or until the earlier of their death, resignation or removal in accordance with the memorandum and articles of association of the Surviving Corporation.

ARTICLE II

EFFECT ON ISSUED SECURITIES; EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES

SECTION 2.01 Effect of Merger on Issued Securities. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holders of any securities of the Company:

(a) (i) each ordinary share, par value US$0.00005 per share, of the Company (a “Share” or, collectively, the “Shares”), including Shares represented by American Depositary Shares, each representing five (5) Shares (the “ADSs”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than the Rollover Securities, the Dissenting Shares (as defined below), any Shares owned by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company (if any), and any Shares reserved (but not yet allocated) by the Company for settlement upon exercise of any Company Share Awards (collectively, the “Excluded Shares”), shall be cancelled in consideration for the right to receive US$5.50 in cash per Share without interest (the “Per Share Merger Consideration”) payable in the manner provided in Section 2.04, and for the avoidance of doubt, because each ADS represents five (5) Shares, each ADS issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than ADSs that represent Excluded Shares) shall represent the right to surrender the ADS in exchange for US$27.50 in cash per ADS without interest (the “Per ADS Merger Consideration”), pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Deposit Agreement; and (ii) all of the Shares, including Shares represented by ADSs (other than the Excluded Shares), shall be cancelled and cease to exist, and the register of members of the Company will be amended accordingly;

(b) each Excluded Share (including ADSs that represent Excluded Shares but excluding the Dissenting Shares which shall be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.03), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of its holder, shall be cancelled and cease to exist, without payment of any consideration or distribution therefor, and the register of members of the Company shall be amended accordingly; and

(c) each ordinary share, par value US$0.00005 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable ordinary share, par value US$0.00005 per share, of the Surviving Corporation. Such ordinary shares shall be the only issued and outstanding share capital of the Surviving Corporation, and the Surviving Corporation shall make entries in its register of members to reflect the holder of ordinary shares of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time as the holder of ordinary shares of the Surviving Corporation after the Effective Time.

 

3


SECTION 2.02 Share Incentive Plans and Outstanding Company Share Awards.

(a) As soon as practicable following the date hereof, the Company, the Company Board or the compensation committee of the Company Board, as applicable, shall take the actions as set forth on Section 2.02(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, to (i) terminate the Company’s Share Incentive Plans, and any relevant award agreements applicable to the Share Incentive Plans, as of the Effective Time, (ii) cancel each Company Share Award that is outstanding and unexercised, whether or not vested or exercisable, as of the Effective Time, and (iii) otherwise effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.02. From and after the Effective Time, neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall be required to issue Shares, other share capital of the Company or the Surviving Corporation or any other consideration (other than as required by this Section 2.02 or the Management Rollover Agreements) to any person pursuant to or in settlement of any Company Share Award. Promptly following the date hereof, the Company shall deliver written notice to each holder of a Company Share Award informing such holder of the effect of the Merger on its Company Share Awards.

(b) Each former holder of a Vested Company Option that is cancelled at the Effective Time shall, in exchange therefor, be paid by the Surviving Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries, as soon as practicable after the Effective Time (without interest), a cash amount equal to the product of (i) the excess, if any, of the Per Share Merger Consideration (in the case of a Share Option) or the Per ADS Merger Consideration (in the case of an ADS Option), over the Exercise Price of such Vested Company Option and (ii) the number of Shares or ADSs, as applicable, underlying such Vested Company Option; provided that if the Exercise Price of any such Vested Company Option is equal to or greater than the Per Share Merger Consideration (in the case of a Share Option) or the Per ADS Merger Consideration (in the case of an ADS Option), as applicable, such Vested Company Option shall be cancelled without any payment therefor.

(c) Except as set forth in the Management Rollover Agreements, each former holder of an Unvested Company Option and/or Company RSU that is cancelled at the Effective Time shall, in exchange therefor, receive as soon as practicable after the Effective Time, a restricted cash award (“RCA”) in an amount in cash that is the equivalent of, (i) in the case of an Unvested Company Option, the product of (A) the excess, if any, of the Per Share Merger Consideration (in the case of a Share Option) or the Per ADS Merger Consideration (in the case of an ADS Option), over the Exercise Price of such Unvested Company Option and (B) the number of Shares or ADSs, as applicable, underlying such Unvested Company Option, and (ii) in the case of a Company RSU, the product of (A) the Per Share Merger Consideration or the Per ADS Merger Consideration, as applicable, and (B) the number of Shares or ADSs, as applicable, underlying such Company RSU; provided that if the Exercise Price of any such Unvested Company Option is equal to or greater than the Per Share Merger Consideration (in the case of a Share Option) or the Per ADS Merger Consideration (in the case of an ADS Option), such Unvested Company Option shall be cancelled without any payment therefor. Except as set forth in Section 2.02(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, any RCA issued by Parent or the Surviving Corporation in respect of any Unvested Company Option or Company RSU shall be subject to the same vesting conditions and schedules applicable to such Unvested Company Option or Company RSU without giving effect to the Transactions, and on the date, and to the extent, that any Unvested Company Option or Company RSU would have become vested without giving effect to the Transactions, such corresponding portion of the RCA shall be delivered to the holder of such RCA, net of any applicable withholding taxes, as soon as practicable thereafter (without interest).

 

4


(d) As of the Effective Time, all Company Share Awards shall automatically cease to exist, and each holder of a Company Share Award shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the cash payment, the RCAs and/or any other consideration as provided in this Section 2.02 and the Management Rollover Agreements, as the case may be.

SECTION 2.04 Exchange of Share Certificates, etc. (a) Paying Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall appoint a bank or trust company that is reasonably satisfactory to the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to act as paying agent (the “Paying Agent”) for all payments required to be made pursuant to Sections 2.01(a) and 2.02(b) (collectively, the “Merger Consideration”) and, in connection therewith, shall enter into an agreement with the Paying Agent in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or cause Merger Sub to deposit, with the Paying Agent, for the benefit of the holders of Shares (other than Excluded Shares) and ADSs and Company Share Awards, cash in an amount sufficient to pay the Merger Consideration (such cash being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund”).

(b) Exchange Procedures. As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Paying Agent to mail (or in the case of the Depositary, deliver) or otherwise disseminate to each person who was, at the Effective Time, a registered holder of Shares entitled to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.01(a): (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall be in customary form for a company incorporated in the Cayman Islands reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company, and shall specify the manner in which the delivery of the Exchange Fund to registered holders of Shares (other than Excluded Shares) shall be effected and contain such other provisions as Parent and the Company may mutually agree); and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of any issued share certificates representing Shares (the “Share Certificates”) (or affidavits and indemnities of loss in lieu of the Share Certificates as provided in Section 2.04(c)) and/or such other documents as may be required in exchange for the Per Share Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of, if applicable, a Share Certificate (or affidavit and indemnity of loss in lieu of the Share Certificate as provided in Section 2.04(c)) and/or such other documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions to the Paying Agent in accordance with the terms of such letter of transmittal, duly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, each registered holder of Shares represented by such Share Certificate and each registered holder of Shares which are not represented by a Share Certificate (the “Uncertificated Shares”) shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a cheque, in the amount equal to (x) the number of Shares represented by such Share Certificate (or affidavit and indemnity of loss in lieu of the Share Certificate as provided in Section 2.04(c)) or the number of Uncertificated Shares multiplied by (y) the Per Share Merger Consideration, and the Share Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be marked as cancelled. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent and the Company shall establish procedures with the Paying Agent and the Depositary to ensure that (A) the Paying Agent will transmit to the Depositary as promptly as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time an amount in cash in immediately available funds equal to the product of (x) the number of ADSs issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than ADSs representing the Excluded Shares) and (y) the Per ADS Merger Consideration, and (B) the Depositary will distribute the Per ADS Merger Consideration to holders of ADSs pro rata to their holdings of ADSs (other than ADSs representing the Excluded Shares) upon surrender by them of the ADSs. The Surviving Corporation will pay any applicable fees, charges and expenses of the Depositary and government charges (other than withholding taxes, if any) due to or incurred by the Depositary in connection with distribution of the Per ADS Merger Consideration to holders of ADSs (other than the ADS cancellation fee, which shall be payable in accordance with the Deposit Agreement). No interest shall be paid or will accrue on any amount payable in respect of the Shares or ADSs pursuant to the provisions of this Article II. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Shares that is not registered in the register of members of the Company, the Per Share Merger Consideration in respect of such Shares may be paid to such transferee upon delivery of evidence to the satisfaction of Parent (or any agent designated by Parent) of such transferee’s entitlement to the relevant Shares and evidence that any applicable share transfer taxes have been paid or are not applicable.

(c) Lost Certificates. If any Share Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Share Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the Surviving Corporation, the posting by such person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as the Surviving Corporation may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Share Certificate, the Paying Agent will pay in respect of the Shares represented by such lost, stolen or destroyed Share Certificate an amount equal to the Per Share Merger Consideration multiplied by the number of Shares represented by such Share Certificate to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to Section 2.01(a).

(d) Untraceable Shareholders. Remittances for the Per Share Merger Consideration shall not be sent to holders of Shares who are untraceable unless and until, except as provided below, they notify the Paying Agent of their current contact details prior to the Effective Time. A holder of Shares will be deemed to be untraceable if (i) such person has no registered address in the register of members (or branch register) maintained by the Company or, (ii) on the last two consecutive occasions on which a dividend has been paid by the Company a cheque payable to such person either (x) has been sent to such person and has been returned undelivered or has not been cashed or, (y) has not been sent to such person because on an earlier occasion a cheque for a dividend so payable has been returned undelivered, and in any such case no valid claim in respect thereof has been communicated in writing to the Company or, (iii) notice of the Shareholders’ Meeting convened to vote on the Merger has been sent to such person and has been returned undelivered. Dissenting Shareholders and holders of Shares who are untraceable who subsequently wish to receive any monies otherwise payable in respect of the Merger within applicable time limits or limitation periods will be advised to contact the Surviving Corporation.

(e) Adjustments to Merger Consideration. The Per Share Merger Consideration and the Per ADS Merger Consideration shall be adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any share split, reverse share split, share dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Shares), extraordinary cash dividends, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares, change or readjustment in the ratio of Shares represented by each ADS or other like change with respect to Shares occurring, or with a record date, on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.

(f) Investment of Exchange Fund. The Exchange Fund, pending its disbursement to the holders of Shares and ADSs, shall be invested by the Paying Agent as directed by Parent or, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation in (a) short-term direct obligations of the United States of America, (b) short-term obligations for which the full faith and credit of the United States of America is pledged to provide for the payment of principal and interest, or (c) certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks acceptable to Parent. Earnings from investments shall be the sole and exclusive property of Parent and the Surviving Corporation.

(g) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including any income or proceeds thereof or of any investment thereof) that remains undistributed to the holders of Shares or ADSs for six (6) months after the Effective Time shall automatically and promptly be delivered to the Surviving Corporation, and any holders of Shares (other than Excluded Shares) and ADSs that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time who have not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation for the cash to which they are entitled pursuant to Section 2.01(a) and 2.02. Any portion of the Exchange Fund remaining unclaimed by holders of Shares and ADSs as of a date which is immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Authority shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation free and clear of any claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto.

(h) No Liability. None of the Paying Agent, Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any holder of Shares in respect of any such Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs) or Company Share Awards (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) for which payment was delivered to a public official pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(i) Withholding Rights. Each of Parent, the Surviving Corporation, the Paying Agent and the Depositary (and any other person that has a payment obligation pursuant to this Agreement), without double counting, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Shares, ADSs or Company Share Awards such amounts as it reasonably determines in good faith it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provisions of applicable Law to the extent set forth in Section 2.04(i) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, which schedule shall set forth the Taxes which such applicable party may deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement unless the holder of Shares, ADSs or Company Shares Awards provides such certifications, forms or other documentation, the form and substance of which shall also be set forth in Schedule 2.04(i) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, reasonably satisfactory to Parent, the Surviving Corporation, the Paying Agent and the Depositary, as applicable, that such withholding is not required under applicable Law. The Company may, in good faith, update Schedule 2.04(i) of the Company Disclosure Schedule to reflect additional Taxes and/or certifications, forms or other documentation up to five (5) calendar days prior to the Closing Date. To the extent that any amounts are deducted, withheld and remitted to the applicable Governmental Authority by Parent, the Surviving Corporation, the Paying Agent or the Depositary, as the case may be, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of Shares, ADSs or Company Share Awards in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Parent, the Surviving Corporation, the Paying Agent or the Depositary, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, by accepting the Merger Consideration, each holder of Shares, ADSs or Company Share Awards agrees to properly report and pay all Taxes related to any Merger Consideration payable by such holder under this Agreement.

SECTION 2.05 No Transfers. From and after the Effective Time, (a) no transfers of Shares shall be effected in the register of members of the Company, and (b) the holders of Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Shares, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or by Law. On or after the Effective Time, any Share Certificates presented to the Paying Agent, Parent or Surviving Corporation for transfer or any other reason shall be canceled and (except for the Excluded Shares) exchanged for the cash consideration to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 2.01(a).

The Company shall have delivered to Parent and Merger Sub, copies of bank statements or alternatively, other written evidence, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent, that (i) the aggregate amount standing to the credit of all of the Onshore Bank Designated Accounts and the Offshore Bank Designated Accounts is not less than the Facility B Required Balance, and (ii) the aggregate amount standing to the credit of all the Company Designated Accounts is not less than the equivalent of US$150,000,000 (determined using the prevailing exchange rate notified by Parent (as notified by Parent’s Debt Financing sources) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date), which written evidence shall be certified as of the Closing Date as true and correct by the chief financial officer of the Company.

(a) by mutual written consent of Parent and the Company;

(b) by either Parent or the Company, if:

(i) the Effective Time shall not have occurred on or before June 19, 2013 (such date as may be extended in accordance with this Section 8.01(b)(i), the “Termination Date”), which date may be extended at the written request of the Company or Parent to October 19, 2013 for the purpose of satisfying any condition for which the consent or approval of any Governmental Authority is being sought in accordance with this Agreement or the Transactions; provided that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.01(b)(i) shall not be available to any party if the circumstances described in this Section 8.01(b)(i) are primarily caused by such party’s failure to comply with its obligations under this Agreement; or

(ii) any Governmental Authority shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any Injunction; provided that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.01(b)(ii) shall not be available to any party if the circumstances described in this Section 8.01(b)(ii) were primarily caused by such party’s failure to comply with its obligations under this Agreement; or

(iii) if the Requisite Company Vote is not obtained at the Shareholders’ Meeting or any adjournment thereof at which this Agreement has been voted upon;

 

47


(c) by the Company:

(i) upon a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of Parent and Merger Sub set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of Parent and Merger Sub shall have become untrue, in either case such that the conditions set forth in Section 7.03(a) or Section 7.03(b) would not be satisfied and such breach cannot be cured by Parent or Merger Sub by the Termination Date or if capable of being cured, shall not have been cured (x) within fifteen (15) days following receipt of written notice from the Company of such breach or (y) any shorter period of time that remains between the date the Company provides written notice of such breach and the Termination Date; provided, however, that, the Company shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.01(c)(i) if the Company is then in material breach of any representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements hereunder; or

(ii) if prior to obtaining the Requisite Company Vote, (x) the Company Board shall have determined, in its good faith judgment upon the recommendation of the Independent Committee (upon advice by outside legal counsel), that failure to enter into a definitive agreement relating to a Superior Proposal would be reasonably likely to violate its fiduciary obligations under applicable Law, and shall have authorized the Company to enter into such definitive agreement, and (y) the Company has concurrently with the termination of this Agreement entered into, or immediately after termination of this Agreement, enters into, such definitive agreement; provided, that (A) such Superior Proposal did not result from any breach by the Company of its obligations under Section 6.04 and the Company has complied in all respects with the requirements of Section 6.04(c) (other than, in each case and in the aggregate, any de minimis non-compliance that does not adversely affect Parent or Merger Sub), and (B) the Company has complied in all respects with its obligations under Section 8.03(b) and pays in full the Company Termination Fee prior to or concurrently with taking any action pursuant to this Section 8.01(c)(ii), and any purported termination pursuant to this Section 8.01(c)(ii) shall be void and of no force or effect if the Company shall not have paid the Company Termination Fee; or

(iii) if all of the conditions to closing contained in Section 7.01 and Section 7.02 have been satisfied (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing but subject to their satisfaction or waiver by the party having the benefit thereof) and Parent and Merger Sub have not received the proceeds of the Debt Financing, the Equity Financing or the Alternative Financing, as the case may be (other than as a result of the failure of the Company to timely satisfy its obligations under Section 6.07) on or prior to the date the Closing should have occurred pursuant to Section 1.02; provided that the Company has delivered to Parent an irrevocable commitment in writing that it is ready, willing and able to consummate the Closing during such period; provided, further, that the Company shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.01(c)(iii) until the Termination Date, if the failure by Parent and Merger Sub to receive the proceeds of the Debt Financing or Alternative Financing is as a result of Fangda Partners having delivered a formal written opinion as to PRC Laws to the Debt Financing sources, that due to a change in applicable PRC Law (or change in implementation or interpretation thereof by the applicable PRC Governmental Authority) after the date hereof, the transactions pursuant to the SBLC Documents conflict with or constitute or result in a breach or violation of any PRC Law (a “Negative SBLC Opinion Event”); or

 

48


(d) by Parent:

(i) upon a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of the Company set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of the Company shall have become untrue, in either case such that the conditions set forth in Section 7.02(a) or Section 7.02(b) would not be satisfied and such breach cannot be cured by the Company by the Termination Date or if capable of being cured, shall not have been cured (x) within fifteen (15) days following receipt of written notice from Parent of such breach or (y) any shorter period of time that remains between the date Parent provides written notice of such breach and the Termination Date; provided, that, with respect to a breach of the representation set forth in Section 3.15(d)(v), Parent shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.01(d)(i) until the Termination Date, so long as such breach is reasonably capable of being cured prior to the Termination Date; provided, however, that, Parent shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.01(d)(i) if either Parent or Merger Sub is then in material breach of any representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements hereunder; or

(ii) if a Company Triggering Event shall have occurred.

For purposes of this Agreement, a “Company Triggering Event” shall be deemed to have occurred if: (i) there shall have been a Change in the Company Recommendation; (ii) the Company Board shall have recommended publicly to the shareholders of the Company a Competing Transaction or shall have entered into any letter of intent, Contract, commitment or similar document with respect to any Competing Transaction (other than a confidentiality agreement entered into in compliance with Section 6.04(b)); (iii) the Company shall have failed to include in the Proxy Statement the Company Recommendation; or (iv) a tender offer or exchange offer by a Third Party for 20% or more of the outstanding Shares is commenced, and the Company Board fails to recommend against acceptance of such tender offer or exchange offer by its shareholders (including by taking no position with respect to the acceptance of such tender offer or exchange offer by its shareholders).

SECTION 8.02 Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01, this Agreement shall forthwith become void, and there shall be no liability under this Agreement on the part of any party hereto; provided, however, that the terms of Sections 6.12, 8.02, 8.03, 8.04, 8.05, 8.06 and Article IX shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 8.03 Fees and Expenses. (a) Subject to Section 8.03(b), all Expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions shall be paid by the party incurring such expenses, whether or not the Transactions are consummated. “Expenses”, as used in this Agreement, shall include all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, all fees and expenses of counsel, accountants, investment bankers, experts, financing sources and consultants to a party hereto and its affiliates) incurred by a party or on its behalf in connection with or related to the authorization, preparation, negotiation, execution and performance of this Agreement, the preparation, printing and filing of the Proxy Statement and the Schedule 13E-3 and the mailing or other dissemination of the Proxy Statement, the solicitation of shareholder approvals, the filing of any required notices under applicable Law and all other matters related to the closing of the Transactions.

 

49


(b) The Company agrees that:

(i) if the Company shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(c)(ii); or

(ii) if Parent shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(d)(i) (other than as a result of a failure of the representation and warranty in Section 3.09(b) or Section 3.15(d)(v) to be true and correct in all respects at the Closing) or Section 8.01(d)(ii); or

(iii) if (A) either Parent or the Company shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(b)(i) or Section 8.01(b)(iii), (B) neither Parent nor Merger Sub shall have materially breached any of its representations, warranties or covenants under this Agreement, (C) at or prior to the time of termination of this Agreement, a Third Party shall have publicly disclosed a proposal or offer for a Competing Transaction, and (D) at any time prior to the date that is twelve (12) months after the date of such termination, the Company enters into a definitive agreement with respect to a Competing Transaction; provided, that for purposes of this Section 8.03(b)(iii), all references to “20%” in the definition of “Competing Transaction” shall be deemed to be references to “50%”;

then the Company shall, subject to the next sentence, pay or cause to be paid to Parent promptly (but in any event, except as required under Section 8.01(c)(ii), no later than two (2) Business Days after the first of such events shall have occurred) a fee of US$40,000,000 (the “Company Termination Fee”), by wire transfer of same day funds to one or more accounts designated in writing by Parent. In addition, if (x) either Parent or the Company shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(b)(iii) under circumstances in which the Company Termination Fee is not then payable pursuant to Section 8.03(b)(iii), or (y) Parent shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(d)(i) because the representation and warranty contained in Section 3.09(b) was not true and correct in all respects as of the date hereof, then in each case, the Company shall, within twenty (20) Business Days following receipt of an invoice therefor, reimburse Parent and Merger Sub for all of their reasonably documented Expenses incurred prior to such termination, which amount shall in no event exceed US$6,000,000 in the aggregate, by wire transfer of same day funds to one or more accounts designated in writing by Parent, regardless of the existence of circumstances which could require the Company thereafter to pay or cause to be paid to Parent a Company Terminate Fee pursuant to Section 8.03(b)(iii); provided, that in the event the Company shall be required to pay a Company Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.03(b)(iii), the Company shall be entitled to credit the aggregate amount of Expenses of Parent and Merger Sub actually reimbursed by the Company to Parent (or an affiliate designated by Parent) pursuant to this Section 8.03(b) against the amount of such Company Termination Fee.

 

50


(c) Parent agrees that if the Company shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(c)(i) or Section 8.01(c)(iii) (other than as a result of Parent’s failure to receive the proceeds of the Debt Financing as a result of the occurrence of a Negative SBLC Opinion Event), then Parent shall pay or cause to be paid to the Company promptly (but in any event no later than two (2) Business Days after the date of such termination) a fee of US$60,000,000 (the “Parent Termination Fee”), by wire transfer of same day funds to one or more accounts designated in writing by the Company.

(d) In the event that the Company shall fail to pay the Company Termination Fee, or Parent shall fail to pay the Parent Termination Fee, when due and in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, the Company or Parent, as the case may be, shall reimburse the other party for all costs and expenses actually incurred or accrued by the other party (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) in connection with the collection under and enforcement of this Section 8.03, together with interest on such unpaid Company Termination Fee or Parent Termination Fee, as the case may be, commencing on the date that the Company Termination Fee or Parent Termination Fee, as the case may be, became due, at the prime rate established by the Wall Street Journal Table of Money Rates on such date plus 1.00%. Such collection expenses shall not otherwise diminish in any way the payment obligations hereunder.

(e) Each party acknowledges that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 8.03 are an integral part of the Transactions, (ii) the damages resulting from termination of this Agreement under circumstances where a Company Termination Fee or Parent Termination Fee is payable are uncertain and incapable of accurate calculation and therefore, the amounts payable pursuant to Section 8.03(b) or Section 8.03(c) are not a penalty but rather constitute amounts akin to liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent or the Company, as the case may be, for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Transactions, and (iii) without the agreements contained in this Section 8.03, the parties hereto would not have entered into this Agreement.

SECTION 8.04 Limitations on Liabilities. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, except for an order of specific performance to the extent permitted by Section 9.07, the Company’s right to terminate this Agreement and receive the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.03(c), and any amounts pursuant to Section 8.03(d) (if any), and the guarantee of such obligations pursuant to the Limited Guarantees, shall be the sole and exclusive remedy (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise) of the Company, the Subsidiaries, the direct or indirect shareholders of the Company or any other person, or any of their respective affiliates, directors, officers, employees, members, managers, partners, representatives, advisors or agents (collectively, the “Company Group”) against (i) Parent, Merger Sub, the Sponsors and the Sponsor Guarantors, (ii) the former, current and future holders of any equity, partnership or limited liability company interest in, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners, shareholder or, assignees of, each of Parent, Merger Sub, the Sponsors and the Sponsor Guarantors, (iii) any lender or prospective lender, lead arranger, arranger, agent or representative of or to Parent or Merger Sub, or (iv) any holders or future holders of any equity, share, partnership or limited liability company interest, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners, stockholders, assignees of any of the foregoing (all persons described in (i) to (iv), collectively, the “Parent Group”), for any and all loss or damage suffered as a result of any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement, any failure to perform hereunder or other failure of the Transactions to be consummated (in each case whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise). For the avoidance of doubt, neither Parent nor any member of the Parent Group shall have any liability for monetary damages of any kind or nature or arising in any circumstance in connection with this Agreement or any of the Transactions (including the Equity Commitment Letters) other than the payment of the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.03(c), and any amounts pursuant to Section 8.03(d) (if any), and in no event shall any of the Company, the Subsidiaries, or any other member of the Company Group seek, or permit to be sought, on behalf of any member of the Company Group, any monetary damages from any member of the Parent Group in connection with this Agreement or any of the Transactions (including the Equity Commitment Letters), other than from Parent or Merger Sub to the extent provided in Section 8.03(c), and any amounts pursuant to Section 8.03(d) (if any), or the Sponsor Guarantors to the extent provided in the relevant Limited Guarantees, in each case without duplication. In no event shall any of the Company, the Subsidiaries or any other member of the Company Group be entitled to seek the remedy of specific performance of this Agreement other than as set forth in Section 9.07. For the avoidance of doubt, while the Company may pursue both a grant of specific performance as permitted by Section 9.07 and the payment of the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to Sections 8.03(c), and any amounts pursuant to Section 8.03(d) (if any), under no circumstances shall the Company be permitted or entitled to receive both such grant of specific performance and the payment of the Parent Termination Fee.

 

51


(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, except for an order of specific performance to the extent permitted by Section 9.07, Parent’s right to terminate this Agreement and receive the Company Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.03(b), and any amounts pursuant to Section 8.03(d) (if any), shall be the sole and exclusive remedy (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise) of any member of the Parent Group against any member of the Company Group (except for any obligations under agreements set forth in Section 4.09 of the Parent Disclosure Schedule), for any and all loss or damage suffered as a result of any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement, any failure to perform hereunder or other failure of the Transactions to be consummated (in each case whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise). For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Company nor any member of the Company Group shall have any liability for monetary damages of any kind or nature or arising in any circumstance in connection with this Agreement or any of the Transactions, other than the payment of the Company Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.03(b), and any amounts pursuant to Section 8.03(d), if any, and pursuant to any obligations under agreements set forth in Section 4.09 of the Parent Disclosure Schedule, and in no event shall any of Parent or Merger Sub or any other member of the Parent Group seek, or permit to be sought, on behalf of any member of the Parent Group, any monetary damages from any member of the Company Group in connection with this Agreement or any of the Transactions, other than from the Company to the extent provided in Section 8.03(b) and any amounts pursuant to Section 8.03(d) (if any), and except for any obligations under agreements set forth in Section 4.09 of the Parent Disclosure Schedule. In no event shall any of Parent, Merger Sub, or any other member of the Parent Group be entitled to seek the remedy of specific performance of this Agreement other than as set forth in Section 9.07. For the avoidance of doubt, while Parent may pursue both a grant of specific performance as permitted by Section 9.07 and the payment of the Company Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.03(b), and any amounts pursuant to Section 8.03(d) (if any), under no circumstances shall Parent be permitted or entitled to receive both such grant of specific performance and payment of the Company Termination Fee.

 

52


(c) The provisions of this Section 8.04 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each member of the Parent Group and the Company Group.

SECTION 8.05 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto by action taken by or on behalf of their respective Boards of Directors at any time prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that, after the approval of this Agreement and the Transactions by the shareholders of the Company, no amendment may be made that would reduce the amount or change the type of consideration into which each Share (including Shares represented by ADSs) shall be converted upon consummation of the Merger. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by each of the parties hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the parties acknowledge and agree that a new company to be incorporated in the Cayman Islands is expected to be the direct parent of Parent (holding 100% of the equity interests in Parent) and the direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco prior to the Closing, in which case any references to Parent being a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco shall be modified accordingly.

SECTION 8.06 Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, any party hereto may (a) extend the time for the performance of any obligation or other act of any other party hereto, (b) waive any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of any other party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (c) waive compliance with any agreement of any other party or any condition to its own obligations contained herein. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party or parties to be bound thereby. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

ARTICLE IX

GENERAL PROVISIONS

SECTION 9.01 Non-Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. The representations, warranties and agreements in this Agreement and in any certificate delivered pursuant hereto shall terminate at the Effective Time, except that the agreements set forth in Articles I and II, Sections 6.05 and 6.12, this Article IX and Section 2.04(i) of the Company Disclosure Schedule shall survive the Effective Time.

 

53


SECTION 9.02 Notices. All notices, requests, claims, demands and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given (and shall be deemed to have been duly given upon receipt) by delivery in person, by telecopy or by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested) to the respective parties at the following addresses (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified in a notice given in accordance with this Section 9.02):

SECTION 9.04 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the Transactions be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

SECTION 9.05 Entire Agreement; Assignment. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall not be assigned (whether pursuant to a merger, by operation of law or otherwise), except that Parent and Merger Sub may assign all or any of their rights and obligations hereunder to (i) any affiliate of Parent or (ii) any persons providing the Financing pursuant to the terms thereof (including for purposes of creating a security interest herein or otherwise assign as collateral in respect of such Financing), provided that no such assignment shall relieve the assigning party of its obligations hereunder if such assignee does not perform such obligations.

SECTION 9.06 Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, other than Sections 6.05 and 8.04 (which are intended to be for the benefit of the persons covered thereby and may be enforced by such persons); provided, however, that in no event shall any holders of Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs) or holders of Company Share Awards, in each case in their capacity as such, have any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

66


SECTION 9.07 Specific Performance. (a) The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that each party shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof (including the other parties’ obligation to consummate the Transactions, subject in each case to the terms and conditions of this Agreement), including an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy at law or equity. Each party hereby waives (i) any defenses in any action for specific performance, including the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate and (ii) any requirement under any Law to post a bond or other security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief. If any party brings any Action to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof by any other party, the Termination Date shall automatically be extended by (x) the amount of time during which such Action is pending, plus twenty (20) Business Days or (y) such other time period established by the court presiding over such Action.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, other than where the availability of this Section 9.07(b) is expressly disclaimed, the Company shall be entitled to seek an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief to enforce Parent’s and Merger Sub’s rights to cause the Equity Financing to be funded and to consummate the Merger only in the event that each of the following conditions has been satisfied: (i) all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.01 and Section 7.02 have been satisfied (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Closing), and Parent and Merger Sub fail to complete the Closing by the date the Closing is required to have occurred pursuant to Section 1.02, (ii) the Debt Financing (or, if applicable, Alternative Financing) has been funded or will be funded at the Closing if the Equity Financing is funded at the Closing, and (iii) the Company has irrevocably confirmed in a written notice delivered to Parent and Parent’s Debt Financing (or, if applicable, Alternative Financing) sources that if the Financing is funded, it would be ready, willing and able to consummate the Transactions. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Company be entitled to enforce or seek to enforce specifically Parent’s right to cause the Equity Financing to be funded or to consummate the Merger if the Debt Financing has not been funded (or will not be funded at the Closing even if the Equity Financing is funded at the Closing).

SECTION 9.08 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed and governed by and in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York without regard to the conflicts of law principles thereof.

67


SECTION 9.09 Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties hereto hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law any right it may have to a trial by jury with respect to any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter agreement sets forth the commitments of Carlyle Asia Partners III, L.P. (“Sponsor”), subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, to purchase, directly or indirectly, certain equity interests of Giovanna Group Holdings Limited, a newly formed exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“Holdco”). It is contemplated that, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”) to be entered into among Focus Media Holding Limited (the “Company”), Giovanna Parent Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco (“Parent”), and Giovanna Acquisition Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. Concurrently with the delivery of this letter agreement, the parties set forth on Schedule A (each, an “Other Sponsor”) are entering into letter agreements substantially identical to this letter agreement (each an “Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letter”) committing to invest in Holdco. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Merger Agreement.

 

1


1. Commitment. This letter agreement confirms the commitment of the Sponsor, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, to subscribe for (or cause to be subscribed for) equity securities of Holdco and to pay (or cause to be paid) to Holdco in immediately available funds at or prior to the Closing an aggregate cash purchase price equal to $452,200,000.00 (such sum, the “Commitment”), which will be applied to (i) fund (or cause to be funded through Parent or Merger Sub) a portion of the Exchange Fund and any other amounts required to be paid pursuant to the Merger Agreement and (ii) pay (or cause to be paid through Parent or Merger Sub) related fees and expenses pursuant to the Merger Agreement; provided that Sponsor shall not, under any circumstances, be obligated to contribute more than the Commitment to Holdco and the liability of the Sponsor hereunder shall not exceed the Commitment amount. Sponsor may effect the purchase of the equity interests of Holdco directly or indirectly through one or more direct or indirect Subsidiaries of Sponsor or any other private equity fund managed or advised by an affiliate of Sponsor, including, without limitation, Giovanna Investment Holdings Limited. The amount of the Commitment to be funded under this letter agreement may be reduced in a manner agreed by Sponsor and the Other Sponsors in the event that Parent does not require all of the equity with respect to which Sponsor and each Other Sponsor have made the Commitments (as defined, with respect to Sponsor and each Other Sponsor, in this letter agreement or the applicable Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letter, as the case may be) but only to the extent that it will be possible for Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement with the Sponsor and the Other Sponsors contributing less than the full amount of the Commitments.

2. Conditions. The Commitment, including the obligation of Sponsor to fund the Commitment, shall be subject to (i) the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement by the Company, (ii) the satisfaction or waiver at the Closing of each of the conditions to Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligations to consummate the Transactions, (iii) either the contemporaneous consummation of the Closing or the obtaining by the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 9.07(b) of the Merger Agreement of an order requiring Parent to cause the Equity Financing to be funded and to consummate the Merger, (iv) the Debt Financing and/or the Alternative Financing (if applicable) has been funded or will be funded at the Closing if the Equity Financing is funded at the Closing, and (v) the substantially contemporaneous closing of the contributions contemplated by the Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letters which shall not be modified, amended or altered in any manner adverse to the Sponsor without Sponsor’s prior written consent.

3. Limited Guarantee. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this letter agreement, Sponsor is executing and delivering to the Company a limited guarantee, dated as of the date hereof, related to Parent’s and Merger Sub’s certain payment obligations under the Merger Agreement (the “Limited Guarantee”). Other than as set forth in clause (ii) of Section 4 of this letter agreement, the Company’s remedies against Sponsor under the Limited Guarantee shall be, and are intended to be, the sole and exclusive direct or indirect remedies available to the Company and its affiliates against Sponsor or any Non-Recourse Party (as defined in the Limited Guarantee) in respect of any liabilities or obligations arising under, or in connection with, this letter agreement or the Merger Agreement and the Transactions, including in the event Parent or Merger Sub breaches its obligations under the Merger Agreement, whether or not Parent’s or Merger Sub’s breach is caused by Sponsor’s breach of its obligations under this letter agreement, except for claims against Sponsor pursuant to the Limited Guarantee.

 

2


4. Enforceability. This letter agreement may only be enforced by (i) Holdco at the direction of the Other Sponsors in a manner agreed by Sponsor and the Other Sponsors or (ii) the Company solely in accordance with, and to the extent expressly permitted by, Section 9.07 of the Merger Agreement. Neither Holdco’s, Parent’s, Merger Sub’s nor the Company’s creditors shall have the right to enforce this letter agreement or to cause Holdco to enforce this letter agreement.

5. No Modification; Entire Agreement. This letter agreement may not be amended or otherwise modified without the prior written consent of Holdco and Sponsor. Together with the Merger Agreement, each Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letter, the Limited Guarantee, each Other Guarantee (as defined in the Limited Guarantee) and the Confidentiality Agreements (as defined in the Merger Agreement), this letter agreement constitutes the sole agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and statements, written or oral, between Sponsor or any of its affiliates, on the one hand, and Holdco or any of its affiliates, on the other, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby. Except as expressly permitted in Section 1 and Section 13 hereof, no transfer of any rights or obligations hereunder shall be permitted without the consent of Holdco and Sponsor. Any transfer in violation of the preceding sentence shall be null and void.

6. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This letter agreement shall be deemed to be made in and in all respects shall be interpreted, construed and governed by and in accordance with the Law of the State of New York without regard to conflicts of law principles thereof. The parties hereby irrevocably submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York located in the Borough of Manhattan, and the federal courts of the United States of America located in the State of New York, Borough of Manhattan, solely in respect of the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this letter agreement, and hereby waive, and agree not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement hereof, that it is not subject thereto or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in said courts or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this letter agreement may not be enforced in or by such courts, and the parties hereto irrevocably agree that all claims with respect to such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such a New York State or federal court. The parties hereby consent to and grant any such court jurisdiction over the person of such parties and, to the extent permitted by Law, over the subject matter of such dispute and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in herein or in such other manner as may be permitted by Law shall be valid and sufficient service thereof.

7. Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party acknowledges and agrees that any controversy which may arise under this letter agreement is likely to involve complicated and difficult issues, and therefore each such party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right such party may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of, under or relating to this letter agreement, or any of the transactions contemplated by this letter agreement. Each party certifies and acknowledges that (i) no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver, (ii) each party understands and has considered the implications of this waiver, (iii) each party makes this waiver voluntarily and (iv) each party has been induced to enter into this letter agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications expressed above.

8. Counterparts. This letter agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including by e-mail of PDF or scanned versions or by facsimile), each such counterpart being deemed to be an original instrument, and all such counterparts shall together constitute the same agreement.

9. No Third Party Beneficiaries. The Company is a third party beneficiary of this letter agreement solely to specifically enforce the terms of this letter agreement as set forth in Section 4(ii) of this letter agreement, and shall have no other remedies (contractual, legal or equitable). Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, the parties hereby agree that their respective representations, warranties and covenants set forth herein are solely for the benefit of the other party hereto, in accordance with and subject to the terms of this letter agreement, and this letter agreement is not intended to, and does not, confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder or any rights to enforce the Commitment or any provision of this letter agreement.

10. Confidentiality. This letter agreement shall be treated as confidential and is being provided to Holdco solely in connection with the Merger. This letter agreement may not be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to in any document, except with the written consent of Sponsor and Holdco; provided, however, that each of Sponsor and Holdco may disclose the existence and content of this letter agreement to the Other Sponsors and to the extent required by Law, the applicable rules of any national securities exchange or in connection with any SEC filings relating to the Merger, and the Sponsor may disclose the existence and content of this letter agreement to any Sponsor Affiliate (as defined below).

11. Termination. This letter, and the obligation of Sponsor to fund the Commitment will terminate automatically and immediately upon the earliest to occur of (a) the Closing, (b) the first anniversary of the date hereof, (c) the valid termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, or (d) the Company or any of its affiliates asserting a claim that would make the Limited Guarantee become terminable in accordance with Section 8(b) thereof.

12. No Recourse. Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this letter agreement, or any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith, by its acceptance of the benefits of this letter agreement, the addressee covenants, agrees and acknowledges that no person other than Sponsor has any obligation hereunder and that, notwithstanding that Sponsor may be a partnership or limited liability company, the addressee has no right of recovery under this letter agreement or under any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation, against, and no personal liability shall attach to, the former, current or future equity holders, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors, representatives, affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners or assignees of Sponsor or any former, current or future stockholder, controlling person, director, officer, employee, general or limited partner, member, manager, affiliate, agent, advisors or representatives of any of the foregoing (each, a “Sponsor Affiliate”), through Sponsor or otherwise, whether by or through attempted piercing the corporate veil, by or through a claim by or on behalf of Parent against Sponsor Affiliates, whether by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute, regulation or applicable Law, or otherwise.

13. Assignment. The rights, interests or obligations under this letter agreement may not be assigned and/or delegated, in whole or in part, by any party or by operation of Law or otherwise without the prior written consent of the other party, except that, without the prior written consent of Holdco, the rights, interests or obligations under this letter agreement may be assigned and/or delegated, in whole or in part, by Sponsor to one or more of its affiliates or to one or more private equity funds sponsored or managed by any such affiliate. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 13 shall be null and void.

(each, a “Sponsor Fund” and collectively, the “Sponsor Funds”), subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, to purchase, directly or indirectly, certain equity interests of Giovanna Group Holdings Limited, a newly formed exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“Holdco”). It is contemplated that, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”) to be entered into among Focus Media Holding Limited (the “Company”), Giovanna Parent Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco (“Parent”), and Giovanna Acquisition Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. Concurrently with the delivery of this letter agreement, the parties set forth on Schedule A (each, an “Other Sponsor”) are entering into letter agreements substantially identical to this letter agreement (each an “Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letter”) committing to invest in Holdco. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Merger Agreement.

 

1


1. Commitment. This letter agreement confirms the commitment of each of the Sponsor Funds, severally and not jointly, and not jointly and severally, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, to subscribe for (or cause to be subscribed for) equity securities of Holdco and to pay (or cause to be paid) to Holdco in immediately available funds at or prior to the Closing an aggregate cash purchase price equal to the percentage of the Aggregate Commitment set forth opposite such Sponsor Fund’s name on Schedule B hereto (such amount, with respect to each Sponsor Fund is such Sponsor Fund’s “Sponsor Fund Commitment”), which will be applied to (i) fund (or cause to be funded through Parent or Merger Sub) a portion of the Exchange Fund and any other amounts required to be paid pursuant to the Merger Agreement and (ii) pay (or cause to be paid through Parent or Merger Sub) related fees and expenses pursuant to the Merger Agreement; provided that (i) no Sponsor Fund shall, under any circumstances, be obligated to contribute more than its Sponsor Fund Commitment to Holdco, and the Sponsor Funds, collectively, shall not, under any circumstances, be obligated to contribute more than the Aggregate Commitment to Holdco; and (ii) the liability of each Sponsor Fund hereunder shall not exceed its respective Sponsor Fund Commitment, and the liability of the Sponsor Funds, collectively, shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitment. The term “Aggregate Commitment” means an amount equal to $452,200,000. Each Sponsor Fund may effect the purchase of the equity interests of Holdco directly or indirectly through one or more direct or indirect Subsidiaries of such Sponsor Fund or any other private equity fund managed or advised by an affiliate of such Sponsor Fund, including, without limitation, Gio2 Holdings Ltd. The amount of the Aggregate Commitment to be funded under this letter agreement may be reduced in a manner agreed by Sponsor Funds and the Other Sponsors in the event that Parent does not require all of the equity with respect to which each Sponsor Fund and each Other Sponsor have made the Aggregate Commitments and/or the Commitments, as applicable (as defined, with respect to each Sponsor Fund and each Other Sponsor, in this letter agreement or the applicable Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letter, as the case may be) but only to the extent that it will be possible for Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement with the Sponsor Funds and the Other Sponsors contributing less than the full amount of the Aggregate Commitments and/or the Commitments, as applicable.

2. Conditions. The Aggregate Commitment, including the obligation of each Sponsor Fund to fund its Sponsor Fund Commitment, shall be subject to (i) the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement by the Company, (ii) the satisfaction or waiver at the Closing of each of the conditions to Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligations to consummate the Transactions, (iii) either the contemporaneous consummation of the Closing or the obtaining by the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 9.07(b) of the Merger Agreement of an order requiring Parent to cause the Equity Financing to be funded and to consummate the Merger, (iv) the Debt Financing and/or the Alternative Financing (if applicable) has been funded or will be funded at the Closing if the Equity Financing is funded at the Closing, and (v) the substantially contemporaneous closing of the contributions contemplated by the Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letters which shall not be modified, amended or altered in any manner adverse to the Sponsor Funds without each Sponsor Fund’s prior written consent.

3. Limited Guarantee. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this letter agreement, Sponsor Funds are executing and delivering to the Company a limited guarantee, dated as of the date hereof, related to Parent’s and Merger Sub’s certain payment obligations under the Merger Agreement (the “Limited Guarantee”). Other than as set forth in clause (ii) of Section 4 of this letter agreement, the Company’s remedies against Sponsor Funds under the Limited Guarantee shall be, and are intended to be, the sole and exclusive direct or indirect remedies available to the Company and its affiliates against Sponsor Funds or any Non-Recourse Party (as defined in the Limited Guarantee) in respect of any liabilities or obligations arising under, or in connection with, this letter agreement or the Merger Agreement and the Transactions, including in the event Parent or Merger Sub breaches its obligations under the Merger Agreement, whether or not Parent’s or Merger Sub’s breach is caused by Sponsor Funds’ breach of their obligations under this letter agreement, except for claims against Sponsor Funds pursuant to the Limited Guarantee.

4. Enforceability. This letter agreement may only be enforced by (i) Holdco at the direction of the Other Sponsors in a manner agreed by each Sponsor Fund and the Other Sponsors or (ii) the Company solely in accordance with, and to the extent expressly permitted by, Section 9.07 of the Merger Agreement. Neither Holdco’s, Parent’s, Merger Sub’s nor the Company’s creditors shall have the right to enforce this letter agreement or to cause Holdco to enforce this letter agreement.

5. No Modification; Entire Agreement. This letter agreement may not be amended or otherwise modified without the prior written consent of Holdco and Sponsor Funds. Together with the Merger Agreement, each Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letter, the Limited Guarantee, each Other Guarantee (as defined in the Limited Guarantee) and the Confidentiality Agreements (as defined in the Merger Agreement), this letter agreement constitutes the sole agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and statements, written or oral, between Sponsor Funds or any of their respective affiliates, on the one hand, and Holdco or any of its affiliates, on the other, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby. Except as expressly permitted in Section 1 and Section 13 hereof, no transfer of any rights or obligations hereunder shall be permitted without the consent of Holdco and Sponsor Funds. Any transfer in violation of the preceding sentence shall be null and void.

6. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This letter agreement shall be deemed to be made in and in all respects shall be interpreted, construed and governed by and in accordance with the Law of the State of New York without regard to conflicts of law principles thereof. The parties hereby irrevocably submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York located in the Borough of Manhattan, and the federal courts of the United States of America located in the State of New York, Borough of Manhattan, solely in respect of the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this letter agreement, and hereby waive, and agree not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement hereof, that it is not subject thereto or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in said courts or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this letter agreement may not be enforced in or by such courts, and the parties hereto irrevocably agree that all claims with respect to such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such a New York State or federal court. The parties hereby consent to and grant any such court jurisdiction over the person of such parties and, to the extent permitted by Law, over the subject matter of such dispute and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in herein or in such other manner as may be permitted by Law shall be valid and sufficient service thereof.

7. Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party acknowledges and agrees that any controversy which may arise under this letter agreement is likely to involve complicated and difficult issues, and therefore each such party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right such party may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of, under or relating to this letter agreement, or any of the transactions contemplated by this letter agreement. Each party certifies and acknowledges that (i) no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver, (ii) each party understands and has considered the implications of this waiver, (iii) each party makes this waiver voluntarily and (iv) each party has been induced to enter into this letter agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications expressed above.

8. Counterparts. This letter agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including by e-mail of PDF or scanned versions or by facsimile), each such counterpart being deemed to be an original instrument, and all such counterparts shall together constitute the same agreement.

9. No Third Party Beneficiaries. The Company is a third party beneficiary of this letter agreement solely to specifically enforce the terms of this letter agreement as set forth in Section 4(ii) of this letter agreement, and shall have no other remedies (contractual, legal or equitable). Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, the parties hereby agree that their respective representations, warranties and covenants set forth herein are solely for the benefit of the other party hereto, in accordance with and subject to the terms of this letter agreement, and this letter agreement is not intended to, and does not, confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder or any rights to enforce the Sponsor Fund Commitments or any provision of this letter agreement.

10. Confidentiality. This letter agreement shall be treated as confidential and is being provided to Holdco solely in connection with the Merger. This letter agreement may not be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to in any document, except with the written consent of each Sponsor Fund and Holdco; provided, however, that each of Sponsor Funds and Holdco may disclose the existence and content of this letter agreement to the Other Sponsors and to the extent required by Law, the applicable rules of any national securities exchange or in connection with any SEC filings relating to the Merger, and Sponsor Funds may disclose the existence and content of this letter agreement to any Sponsor Fund Affiliate (as defined below).

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Merger Agreement.

Sponsor may effect the purchase of the equity interests of Holdco directly or indirectly through one or more direct or indirect Subsidiaries of Sponsor or any other entity controlled by China Everbright Limited (a company incorporated in Hong Kong and listed on the The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (Stock Code: 165)), including, without limitation, State Success Limited. The amount of the Commitment to be funded under this letter agreement may be reduced in a manner agreed by Sponsor and the Other Sponsors in the event that Parent does not require all of the equity with respect to which Sponsor and each Other Sponsor have made the Commitments (as defined, with respect to Sponsor and each Other Sponsor, in this letter agreement or the applicable Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letter, as the case may be) but only to the extent that it will be possible for Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement with the Sponsor and the Other Sponsors contributing less than the full amount of the Commitments.

2. Conditions. The Commitment, including the obligation of Sponsor to fund the Commitment, shall be subject to (i) the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement by the Company, (ii) the satisfaction or waiver at the Closing of each of the conditions to Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligations to consummate the Transactions, (iii) either the contemporaneous consummation of the Closing or the obtaining by the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 9.07(b) of the Merger Agreement of an order requiring Parent to cause the Equity Financing to be funded and to consummate the Merger, (iv) the Debt Financing and/or the Alternative Financing (if applicable) has been funded or will be funded at the Closing if the Equity Financing is funded at the Closing, and (v) the substantially contemporaneous closing of the contributions contemplated by the Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letters which shall not be modified, amended or altered in any manner adverse to the Sponsor without Sponsor’s prior written consent.

3.

The amount of the Commitment to be funded under this letter agreement may be reduced in a manner agreed by Sponsor and the Other Sponsors in the event that Parent does not require all of the equity with respect to which Sponsor and each Other Sponsor have made the Commitments (as defined, with respect to Sponsor and each Other Sponsor, in this letter agreement or the applicable Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letter, as the case may be) but only to the extent that it will be possible for Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement with the Sponsor and the Other Sponsors contributing less than the full amount of the Commitments.

2. Conditions. The Commitment, including the obligation of Sponsor to fund the Commitment, shall be subject to (i) the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement by the Company, (ii) the satisfaction or waiver at the Closing of each of the conditions to Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligations to consummate the Transactions, (iii) either the contemporaneous consummation of the Closing or the obtaining by the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 9.07(b) of the Merger Agreement of an order requiring Parent to cause the Equity Financing to be funded and to consummate the Merger, (iv) the Debt Financing and/or the Alternative Financing (if applicable) has been funded or will be funded at the Closing if the Equity Financing is funded at the Closing, and (v) the substantially contemporaneous closing of the contributions contemplated by the Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letters which shall not be modified, amended or altered in any manner adverse to the Sponsor without Sponsor’s prior written consent.

3. Limited Guarantee. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this letter agreement, Sponsor is executing and delivering to the Company a limited guarantee, dated as of the date hereof, related to Parent’s and Merger Sub’s certain payment obligations under the Merger Agreement (the “Limited Guarantee”). Other than as set forth in clause (ii) of Section 4 of this letter agreement, the Company’s remedies against Sponsor under the Limited Guarantee shall be, and are intended to be, the sole and exclusive direct or indirect remedies available to the Company and its affiliates against Sponsor or any Non-Recourse Party (as defined in the Limited Guarantee) in respect of any liabilities or obligations arising under, or in connection with, this letter agreement or the Merger Agreement and the Transactions, including in the event Parent or Merger Sub breaches its obligations under the Merger Agreement, whether or not Parent’s or Merger Sub’s breach is caused by Sponsor’s breach of its obligations under this letter agreement, except for claims against Sponsor pursuant to the Limited Guarantee.

(A) The parties hereto agree that this Agreement shall be enforceable by all available remedies at law or in equity (including, without limitation, specific performance). In the event any breach of this Agreement by any of the Rollover Shareholders (including, without limitation, any failure by the Rollover Shareholder to deliver the Rollover Shares for cancellation or to subscribe for the Holdco Shares) which causes, directly or indirectly, either a failure of any closing condition applicable to Parent and Merger Sub in the Merger Agreement or a termination right of the Company under the Merger Agreement, the Rollover Shareholders jointly and severally agree to (A) indemnify and hold harmless Parent, Holdco, the Sponsors and the Sponsor Guarantors from the aggregate out-of-pocket damages (including all costs and expenses) incurred by any of them in connection therewith, including the amount of any termination fee paid or payable by Parent to the Company under the Merger Agreement and, without duplication, all amounts paid or payable under any Limited Guarantees by the Sponsor Guarantors and (B) reimburse all out-of pocket expenses incurred by any of them in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and this Agreement, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of lawyers, accountants, consultants and other advisors retained by any of them in connection therewith, together with any costs of enforcement incurred by any of them in seeking to enforce such remedy against the Rollover Shareholders. The Rollover Shareholders further agree to pay or reimburse Parent, Holdco, the Sponsors and/or the Sponsor Guarantors, as applicable, within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of a written notice from any of them setting forth in reasonable detail the amount of any losses, damages, liabilities or expenses incurred by any of them. The parties hereto agree that the Sponsors and the Sponsor Guarantors shall be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 12(i).

 

10


(B) The Rollover Shareholders further acknowledge and agree that monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy in the event that any covenant or agreement of the Rollover Shareholders in this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its terms, and therefore agree that, in addition to and without limiting any other remedy or right available to Parent or Holdco, Parent and Holdco will have the right to an injunction, temporary restraining order or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction enjoining any such breach and enforcing specifically the terms and provisions hereof. The Rollover Shareholders agree not to oppose the granting of such relief in the event a court determines that such a breach has occurred, and to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy. All rights, powers, and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise of any thereof by Parent or Holdco shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power or remedy by Parent or Holdco.

(j) Assignment; Binding Effect. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties, except that Parent may assign this Agreement (in whole but not in part) in connection with a permitted assignment of the Merger Agreement by Parent, as applicable. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and, in the case of any applicable Rollover Shareholder, his estate, heirs, beneficiaries, personal representatives and executors.

(k) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had never been contained herein.

 

11


(l) Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENTS OR INSTRUMENTS REFERRED TO IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, OR THE ACTIONS OF EACH OF THE PARTIES IN NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT.

(m) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, and by facsimile or, pdf format, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other party; provided, however, that if any of the Rollover Shareholders fails for any reason to execute, or perform their obligations under, this Agreement, this Agreement shall remain effective as to all parties executing this Agreement.

(n) No Presumption Against Drafting Party. Each of the parties to this Agreement acknowledges that it has been represented by independent counsel in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Accordingly, any rule of law or any legal decision that would require interpretation of any claimed ambiguities in this Agreement against the drafting party has no application and is expressly waived.

At the instruction of the Chairman, when the Company RSUs held by Target Management Group Limited become vested, the Company will issue a corresponding number of ADSs to JJ Media Investment Holding Limited instead of Target Management Group Limited. The increase of 3,366,670 Owned Shares (equivalent to 673,334 ADSs) since the date hereof results from the vesting of a corresponding number of Company RSUs for ADSs held by Target Management Group Limited on December 28, 2012, which ADSs are issued to JJ Media Investment Holding Limited instead of Target Management Group Limited.

3. Closing; Conditions to Closing. Subject to the satisfaction in full (or waiver) of all of the conditions set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.2 of the Merger Agreement (other than conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied or waived, as applicable, at the Closing), the closing of the subscription and issuance contemplated hereby shall take place at the Closing. The obligation of the Rollover Shareholder to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby shall be subject to the following conditions: (a) the representations and warranties of Holdco and Parent set forth in Section 7 shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, as if made on such date, (b) Holdco shall have complied in all material respects with all obligations of Holdco hereunder, and (c) the Merger Agreement shall provide for a Per ADS Merger Consideration of not less than $27.50 per ADS.

6. Representations and Warranties of the Rollover Shareholder. To induce Holdco to issue the Holdco Shares, the Rollover Shareholder makes the following representations and warranties, to Parent and Holdco, each and all of which shall be true and correct as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing:

(a) Ownership of Shares. (i) The Rollover Shareholder (A) is and will be the beneficial owner of, and has and will have good and valid title to, the Owned Shares, free and clear of Liens, and (B) has and will have sole or shared (together with affiliates controlled by the Rollover Shareholder) voting power, power of disposition, and power to demand dissenter’s rights (if applicable), in each case with respect to all of the Owned Shares, with no limitations, qualifications, or restrictions on such rights, subject to applicable Laws; (ii) the Owned Shares are not subject to any voting trust agreement or other Contract to which the Rollover Shareholder is a party restricting or otherwise relating to the voting or Transfer of the Owned Shares; and (iii) the Rollover Shareholder has not Transferred any Rollover Share pursuant to any Derivative Transaction, in each case of clause (i) through (iii), except as pursuant to this Agreement, the Voting Agreement, the Financing Agreements and the Custodial Documents (as defined below).

(b) Organization, Standing and Authority. The Rollover Shareholder has full legal power and capacity to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Rollover Shareholder and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by Parent and Holdco, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Rollover Shareholder, enforceable against the Rollover Shareholder in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(c) Consents and Approvals; No Violations. Except for the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act, (i) no filing with, and no permit, authorization, consent or approval of, any Governmental Authority is necessary on the part of the Rollover Shareholder for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Rollover Shareholder or the consummation by the Rollover Shareholder of the transactions contemplated hereby, and (ii) neither the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by the Rollover Shareholder nor the consummation by the Rollover Shareholder of the transactions contemplated hereby, nor compliance by the Rollover Shareholder with any of the provisions hereof shall (A) conflict with or violate any provision of the organizational documents of the Rollover Shareholder which is an entity, (B) result in any breach or violation of, or constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, or result in the creation of a Lien on property or assets of the Rollover Shareholder pursuant to any Contract to which the Rollover Shareholder is a party or by which the Rollover Shareholder or any property or asset of the Rollover Shareholder is bound or affected, or (C) violate any order, writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Rollover Shareholder or any of its properties or assets.

There is no side letter or any other oral or written contract entered into as of the date hereof or contemplated to be entered into after the date hereof, to which the Rollover Shareholder or any of its affiliates is a party related to the Custodial Arrangements, other than the Financing Agreements and the Custodial Documents.

(ii) So long as no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing under the Financing Agreements or the Custodial Documents, there will be no restriction or any limitation under the Financing Agreements or the Custodial Documents on the Rollover Shareholder’s right to (a) vote any Owned Shares or (b) withdraw and transfer the Owned Shares, in each case at any time and whether in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, this Agreement, the Voting Agreement or otherwise; provided, that with respect to the actions set forth under clause (b), the Rollover Shareholder furnishes alternative assets which may consist of (x) all or part of the Holdco Shares issued to the Rollover Shareholder pursuant to this Agreement and (y) proceeds received by the Rollover Shareholder in exchange for the cancellation of the Non-Rollover Shares in substitution of the Owned Shares within 10 calendar days of any withdrawal.

(e) Litigation. There is no Action pending against the Rollover Shareholder or, to the knowledge of the Rollover Shareholder, any other Person or, to the knowledge of the Rollover Shareholder, threatened against any the Rollover Shareholder or any other Person that restricts or prohibits (or, if successful, would restrict or prohibit) the performance by the Rollover Shareholder of its obligations under this Agreement.

(f) Reliance. The Rollover Shareholder understands and acknowledges that Parent and the Company are entering into the Merger Agreement in reliance upon the Rollover Shareholder’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and the representations and warranties of the Rollover Shareholder contained herein.

(g) Receipt of Information. The Rollover Shareholder has been afforded the opportunity to ask such questions as he, she, or it has deemed necessary of, and to receive answers from, representatives of Parent and Holdco concerning the terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and the merits and risks of owning the Holdco Shares. The Rollover Shareholder acknowledges that it has been advised to discuss with its own counsel the meaning and legal consequences of the Rollover Shareholder’s representations and warranties in this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

Except for the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and laws of the Cayman Islands, (i) no filing with, and no permit, authorization, consent or approval of, any Governmental Authority is necessary on the part of Parent or Holdco for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Parent and Holdco or the consummation by Parent and Holdco of the transactions contemplated hereby, and (ii) neither the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by Parent and Holdco, nor the consummation by Parent or Holdco of the transactions contemplated hereby, nor compliance by Parent or Holdco with any of the provisions hereof shall (A) conflict with or violate any provision of the organizational documents of Parent or Holdco, (B) result in any breach or violation of, or constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, or result in the creation of a Lien on such property or asset of Parent or Holdco pursuant to, any Contract to which Parent or Holdco is a party or by which Parent or Holdco or any of their property or asset is bound or affected, or (C) violate any order, writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule or regulation applicable to Parent or Holdco or any of their properties or assets.

At and immediately after the Closing, except as set forth in the Management Rollover Agreement, there shall be (i) no options, warrants, or other rights to acquire shares of the capital stock of Holdco or Parent, (ii) no outstanding securities exchangeable for or convertible into shares of the capital stock of Holdco or Parent, and (iii) no outstanding rights to acquire or obligations to issue any such options, warrants, rights or securities.

(d) Valid Issuance of Shares. At Closing, the Holdco Shares to be issued under this Agreement shall have been duly and validly authorized and when issued and delivered in accordance with the terms hereof, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable ordinary shares of Holdco, free and clear of all claims, liens and encumbrances, other than restrictions arising under applicable securities laws.


8. Other Covenants and Agreements.

(a) Tax Related Matters.

(i) The Rollover Shareholder shall bear and pay, reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless Holdco, Parent, Merger Sub, the Company and any affiliate thereof (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) for, from and against (x) any and all liabilities for PRC Taxes imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against any of the Indemnified Parties, arising from or attributable to (A) the receipt of any Merger Consideration by the Rollover Shareholder or its affiliates pursuant to the Merger Agreement and/or (B) the receipt of Holdco Shares by the Rollover Shareholder or its affiliates pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, the “Tax Liabilities”) and (y) any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, interests, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of the Tax Liabilities. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Tax Liabilities” shall include any and all liability for PRC Taxes suffered by any of the Indemnified Parties as a result of the payments described in clause (x) above, including without limitation, any liability for withholding Taxes. The Rollover Shareholder shall take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to ensure that the Rollover Shareholder has adequate capital resources available to satisfy its indemnification obligations in accordance with this Section 8(a)(i).

(ii) At Parent’s request, the Rollover Shareholder shall provide to Parent such information as may be reasonably necessary for Parent or its direct or indirect owners to file its U.S. federal, state, local, and non-U.S. tax returns (including historic cost basis information).

(b) Shareholders Agreement. The Rollover Shareholder and Holdco shall negotiate in good faith the terms and conditions of a shareholders agreement to be entered into by the Rollover Shareholder and Holdco, among other parties, at or immediately prior to the Closing that is substantially consistent with the terms set forth in Schedule D.

(c) Disclosures. The Rollover Shareholder agrees that, to the extent it is required by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange or another regulatory body or international stock exchange having jurisdiction over the Rollover Shareholder to make any disclosures regarding the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, the Rollover Shareholder shall make such disclosure only after the form and terms thereof have been notified to Holdco and Parent and Holdco and Parent have had a reasonable opportunity to comment thereon.


(d) Financing and Custodial Arrangement.

(i) The Rollover Shareholder agrees to (A) take all actions necessary, and to forbear from taking any action, as applicable, in each case to make the Rollover Shares available at all times after the date hereof to the extent necessary for purposes of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereunder, (B) promptly notify Parent and Holdco of any fact or circumstance of which the Rollover Shareholder becomes aware that would reasonably be expected to make the Rollover Shares unavailable for purposes of this Agreement and the transaction contemplated hereunder, (C) withdraw and obtain a full release of the Rollover Shares from the Custodial Arrangements no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, and (D) take all other actions necessary to effectuate the foregoing, including (x) furnishing the Custodian with other assets acceptable to the Custodian and the Lenders in substitution for the Rollover Shares within the requisite time period, and (y) applying all of the proceeds received by the Rollover Shareholder in respect of the Non-Rollover Shares pursuant to the Merger Agreement to repayment of the bridge loan facility in respect of the Financing Agreement.

(ii) The Rollover Shareholder agrees not to (x) grant to the Lenders or the Custodian (or permit the Lenders or the Custodian to hold) (A) any interest over the Holdco Shares beneficially owned by the Rollover Shareholder which is materially different from the interest described in Schedule C, or (B) any right to direct or control the voting or Transfer of the Holdco Shares issuable to or beneficially owned by the Rollover Shareholder, except as otherwise described in Schedule C, or (y) enter into any side letter or other oral or written contract at any time the contents of which are inconsistent with the Rollover Shareholder’s agreements under clause (x).

(iii) The Rollover Shareholder further agrees to (A) take all actions necessary, and to forbear from taking any action, as applicable, after entry into the Financing Agreements and Custodial Arrangements or otherwise, in each case that would enable the Rollover Shareholder to comply in all respects with the agreements of the Rollover Shareholder Section 8(d)(ii) above, and (B) use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, any and all steps reasonably necessary to avoid or cure any default that may be reasonably expected to result in the Lenders or the Custodian acquiring or holding any security interest over the Holdco Shares, or any right to direct or control the voting or Transfer of any Holdco Shares issuable to or beneficially owned by the Rollover Shareholder, including curing any default and replacing the Holdco Shares with reasonably acceptable, substitute custodial assets as promptly as practicable as reasonably necessary to avoid or cure any default. The Rollover Shareholder agrees to promptly notify Parent and Holdco of any default or event of default under the Financing Agreements or the Custodial Documents and, to the knowledge of the Rollover Shareholder, any event or circumstance that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would reasonably be expected to constitute a default or event of default under the Financing Agreements or the Custodial Documents.

9. Termination. This Agreement, and the agreement of the Rollover Shareholder to the cancellation of the Rollover Shares, will terminate immediately upon the valid termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms; provided, that this Section 9 and Section 11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and the Rollover Shareholder shall continue to be liable for breaches of this Agreement occurring prior to the termination of this Agreement.

10. Further Assurances. Each Rollover Shareholder hereby covenants that, from time to time, such Rollover Shareholder will do, execute, acknowledge and deliver, or will cause to be done, executed, acknowledged and delivered, such further acts, conveyances, transfers, assignments, powers of attorney and assurances necessary to cancel all of the Rollover Shares in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.


11. Miscellaneous.

(a) Amendments and Modification. This Agreement may not be amended, altered, supplemented or otherwise modified except upon the execution and delivery of a written agreement executed by each party hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the parties acknowledge and agree that a new company to be incorporated in the Cayman Islands is expected to be the direct parent of Parent (holding 100% of the equity interests in Parent) and the direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco prior to the Closing, in which case any references to Parent being a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco shall be modified accordingly.

(b) Waiver. No failure or delay of any party in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have hereunder. Any agreement on the part of a party to any such waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument executed and delivered by such party.

(c) Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Rollover Shareholder, Parent and Holdco contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby indefinitely.

(e) Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the Merger Agreement and the Voting Agreement to the extent referred to in this Agreement) constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

(f) Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature under or by reason of this Agreement, except as specifically set forth in this Agreement.


(g) Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to any applicable conflicts of law principles that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. The parties agree that any Action brought by any party to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be brought in any State of New York or United States Federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York. Each of the parties submits to the jurisdiction of any such court in any Action seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of, or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and hereby irrevocably waives the benefit of jurisdiction derived from present or future domicile or otherwise in such Action. Each party irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such Proceeding in any such court or that any such Proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(h) Remedies; Specific Performance.

(i) The parties hereto agree that this Agreement shall be enforceable by all available remedies at law or in equity (including, without limitation, specific performance). In the event any breach of this Agreement by the Rollover Shareholder (including, without limitation, any failure by the Rollover Shareholder to deliver the Rollover Shares for cancellation or to subscribe for the Holdco Shares) which causes, directly or indirectly, either a failure of any closing condition applicable to Parent and Merger Sub in the Merger Agreement or a termination right of the Company under the Merger Agreement, the Rollover Shareholder agrees to (A) indemnify and hold harmless Parent, Holdco, the Sponsors and the Sponsor Guarantors from the aggregate out-of-pocket damages (including all costs and expenses) incurred by any of them in connection therewith, including the amount of any termination fee paid or payable by Parent to the Company under the Merger Agreement and, without duplication, all amounts paid or payable under any Limited Guarantees by the Sponsor Guarantors, provided that, neither Parent, Holdco the Sponsors nor any Sponsor Guarantor shall have the right to recover lost profits or benefit of the bargain damages from the Rollover Shareholder; and (B) reimburse all out-of pocket expenses incurred by any of them in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and this Agreement, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of lawyers, accountants, consultants and other advisors retained by any of them in connection therewith, together with any costs of enforcement incurred by any of them in seeking to enforce such remedy against the Rollover Shareholder. The Rollover Shareholder further agrees to pay or reimburse Parent, Holdco, the Sponsors and/or the Sponsor Guarantors, as applicable, within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of a written notice from any of them setting forth in reasonable detail the amount of any losses, damages, liabilities or expenses incurred by any of them which are indemnifiable or reimbursable hereunder. The parties hereto agree that the Sponsors and the Sponsor Guarantors shall be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 11(h).


(ii) The Rollover Shareholder further acknowledges and agrees that monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy in the event that any covenant or agreement of the Rollover Shareholder in this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its terms, and therefore agrees that Parent and Holdco will have the right to an injunction, temporary restraining order or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction enjoining any such breach and enforcing specifically the terms and provisions hereof. The Rollover Shareholder agrees not to oppose the granting of such relief in the event a court determines that such a breach has occurred, and to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy. All rights, powers, and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise of any thereof by Parent or Holdco shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power or remedy by Parent or Holdco.

(j) Assignment; Binding Effect. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties, except that Parent may assign this Agreement (in whole but not in part) in connection with a permitted assignment of the Merger Agreement by Parent, as applicable. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

(k) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had never been contained herein.

(l) Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENTS OR INSTRUMENTS REFERRED TO IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, OR THE ACTIONS OF EACH OF THE PARTIES IN NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT.

(m) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, and by facsimile or, pdf format, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other party; provided, however, that if the Rollover Shareholder fails for any reason to execute, or perform their obligations under, this Agreement, this Agreement shall remain effective as to all parties executing this Agreement.


(n) No Presumption Against Drafting Party. Each of the parties to this Agreement acknowledges that it has been represented by independent counsel in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Accordingly, any rule of law or any legal decision that would require interpretation of any claimed ambiguities in this Agreement against the drafting party has no application and is expressly waived.

(o) Expenses. Following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Merger, Holdco shall cause Parent or the Surviving Corporation to reimburse the Rollover Shareholder for its reasonably documented expenses incurred in connection with the subscription of Holdco Shares pursuant to this Agreement, up to an aggregate amount of US$4,000,000.


IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Parent, Holdco and the Rollover Stockholder have caused to be executed or executed this Agreement as of the date first written above.

Exhibit 7.40

INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

This Indemnification Agreement is made and entered into as of December 19, 2012 (this “Agreement”), among Giovanna Parent Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“Parent”), Mr. Jason Nanchun Jiang (the “Chairman”), JJ Media Investment Holding Limited, a British Virgin Islands company controlled by the Chairman (“JJ Media”), Target Sales International Limited, a British Virgin Islands Company controlled by the Chairman (“Target Sales”), Top Notch Investments Holdings Ltd, a British Virgin Islands company controlled by the Chairman (“Top Notch”), Target Management Group Limited, a British Virgin Islands company controlled by the Chairman (together with the Chairman, JJ Media, Target Sales and Top Notch, the “Chairman Parties”), and solely for purposes of Section 2, Giovanna Investment Holdings Limited (“Carlyle”), Gio2 Holdings Ltd (“Fountainvest”), Power Star Holdings Limited (“CITIC Capital Partners”) and State Success Limited (“China Everbright”, and together with Carlyle, Fountainvest and CITIC Capital Partners, the “Sponsors”), and solely for purposes of Section 2 and Section 6(d) , Giovanna Group Holdings Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands that wholly-owns Parent (“Holdco”). Each of Parent, the Chairman Parties, the Sponsors and Holdco may be referred individually herein as a “Party” or collectively as “Parties”. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Merger Agreement (as defined below).

WHEREAS, Parent, Giovanna Acquisition Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), and Focus Media Holding Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent as a result of the Merger; and

WHEREAS, in order to induce Parent to enter into the Merger Agreement, the Chairman Parties agree to the matters set forth herein, all upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

 

1


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereby agree as follows:

Section 1. Indemnification.

(a) Each of the Chairman Parties, on a joint and several basis, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Parent, at anytime, and from time to time, from and against any and all Losses (as defined below) incurred or sustained by any of Parent, the Company (including the Surviving Corporation), any of the Company’s Subsidiaries, or any of their affiliates and respective successors and assigns (collectively, the “Company Indemnitees”) in connection with (i) any judicial, criminal, administrative or regulatory proceeding, hearing, investigation, or formal or informal regulatory document production request proceeding initiated or brought by any Governmental Authority in China or any other country against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each, a “Proceeding”), and (ii) any putative class action brought on behalf of the shareholders of the Company pending as of the date hereof and any such putative class action brought after the date hereof initiated based on one or more facts or circumstances that are the subject matters of a Proceeding (collectively, the “Shareholder Class Actions”, and together with any Proceedings, the “Indemnification Events”) against any of the Company Indemnitees, for up to US$140,000,000 (such amount, the “Indemnification Cap”); provided, however, that with respect to all Shareholder Class Actions: (i) in the case where the Company is entitled under any of its then-effective insurance policies to recovery of any of such Losses, the Chairman Parties shall be liable to indemnify Parent for all such Losses, up to the Indemnification Cap, not actually recovered under such insurance policies; and (ii) in all other cases where the Company is not entitled under any insurance policies to recovery of any of such Losses, the Chairman Parties shall be liable to indemnify Parent, up to the Indemnification Cap, for the aggregate amount of all such Losses for all Shareholder Class Actions in excess of US$5,000,000.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Losses” means any and all losses, damages, liabilities, settlements (including pursuant to settlement agreements under which the parties neither admit nor deny liability), obligations, judgments, disgorgements, orders, awards, writs, decrees, fines, penalties, Taxes, in each case of any nature or kind, but shall not include any costs or out of pocket expenses incurred by any of the Company Indemnitees in connection with any Proceeding or Shareholder Class Action, including any legal or accounting expenses and fees. For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Losses incurred or sustained by any of the Company Indemnitees, Parent shall be entitled to be paid first from the Escrow Amount and secondly by the Chairman Parties in accordance with Section 2(a), notwithstanding the availability of recovery from the Company’s applicable insurance policies, but subject to Section 6(h).

(b) The Chairman Parties agree (a) to waive all rights to indemnification, exculpation and expense reimbursement to which one or more Chairman Parties may be entitled under applicable Law or the memorandum and articles of association of any of the Company Indemnitees, by Contract (including the Chairman’s employment agreement with Parent or any of its affiliates) or otherwise, and (b) not to avail themselves (as applicable) of, or seek to apply in connection with their obligations under this Agreement, any indemnification rights that one or more Chairman Parties may have under Section 6.05 of the Merger Agreement with respect to the matters set forth in this Agreement.

Section 2. Escrow Amount.

(a) As a mechanism to satisfy the indemnification obligations of the Chairman Parties under Section 1, the Chairman Parties agree that at or as soon as practicable after the Chairman Parties receive the payment in respect of their Shares and/or Company Share Awards under the Merger Agreement, the Chairman Parties shall deposit an amount equal to US$40,000,000 (such amount, the “Escrow Amount”) or otherwise cause the Escrow Amount to be deposited with Citibank, N.A., Hong Kong Branch as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), which shall be held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to an escrow agreement to be entered into on the Closing Date by and among Parent, the Chairman Parties and the Escrow Agent substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Escrow Agreement”). Parent may direct that the Escrow Amount be funded by directly deducting from the proceeds received or receivable by any Chairman Party pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and be placed in the Escrow Account and each Chairman Party irrevocably authorizes the foregoing. The Chairman Parties further agree that their indemnification obligations under Section 1 shall be satisfied first from the Escrow Amount, and to the extent the Escrow Amount is insufficient to fully satisfy such indemnification obligations, the Chairman Parties agree that they shall be jointly and severally liable to indemnify Parent for any and all Losses that are not recoverable from the Escrow Amount (all such Losses, up to the Indemnification Cap, the “Excess Amount”). In the event the Chairman Parties fail to pay the entire Excess Amount to Parent (or as directed by Parent to the Company) within five (5) Business Days following written demand by Parent, (i) Parent shall be entitled to satisfy the Chairman Parties’ obligation to pay the Excess Amount, in addition to any other legal remedies available to it by: (i) setting-off any dividends or distributions otherwise payable to the Chairman Parties in respect of their ownership interest in Holdco, as the case may be, from time to time, against any unpaid Excess Amount; and/or (ii) at the election of the Sponsors, either the Sponsors (on a pro rata basis in accordance with the Sponsors’ relative equity investments in Holdco) or Holdco shall be entitled to satisfy the Chairman Parties’ obligation to pay the Excess Amount by purchasing one or more Chairman Parties’ equity interests in Holdco, at a price per share equal to 50% of the per share value of shares of Holdco on the Closing Date (which per share value shall, for the avoidance of doubt, equal the amount obtained by dividing the aggregate equity contribution to Holdco on the Closing Date (including the amount of cash contributed by affiliates of the Sponsors and the value of the Rollover Securities of the Chairman Parties and Fosun International Limited determined by reference to the Per Share Merger Consideration or the Per ADS Merger Consideration, as applicable) by the number of ordinary shares of Holdco issued on the Closing Date), and setting-off the purchase price otherwise payable by the Sponsors or Holdco, as applicable, in respect of such Holdco shares against any unpaid Excess Amount, with representations from the applicable Chairman Parties as to its or their title to, and its or their ability to transfer, such equity interests in Holdco (the additional remedies set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) are not mutually exclusive and shall be available at any time an Excess Amount is owed to Parent and from time to time); provided, however, that the Chairman Parties whose equity interests in Holdco was purchased by the Sponsors or Holdco, as applicable, pursuant to the foregoing clause (ii) shall have the right to repurchase such equity interests within six (6) months of the closing date of any such purchase for the same price per share that was deemed to have been paid by the Sponsors or Holdco, as applicable, plus interest through the closing date of any such repurchase at 10% per annum. In furtherance of the foregoing, Holdco shall make the necessary changes in its register of members to reflect any transfer of the equity interests of one or more Chairman Parties in Holdco pursuant to this Section 2.

(b) Subject to Section 7(a), on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date (such date, the “Expiration Date”), the Escrow Agent shall release any Escrow Amount, if any, remaining after application of Section 1 and this Section 2, to the Chairman Parties as instructed by the Parties in accordance with the Escrow Agreement.

 

3


Section 3. Settlement. In the event of an occurrence of any Indemnification Event, none of the Chairman Parties on the one hand, and the Company Indemnitees on the other hand, shall admit to any wrongdoing, assume any liability, enter into any settlement agreement or consent order, stipulate to any judgment, compromise or prejudice any claim or defense of the Company, or otherwise take any action in connection with such Indemnification Event without the prior written consent of the other Parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; provided, that the Chairman Parties’ prior written consent shall not be required for any settlement in respect of any Indemnification Event pursuant to which the Company Indemnitees agree to pay a civil penalty, disgorgement or make any other payment in an amount not exceeding the Escrow Amount. For the avoidance of doubt, the Chairman Parties shall not be liable under this Agreement for any amounts paid in settlement of any Indemnification Event effected without the Chairman Parties’ prior written consent (except as set forth in the proviso in the foregoing sentence), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The Chairman Parties shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Indemnification Event.

Section 4. Notice of Claim. Following any Indemnification Event of which Parent is aware, and to the extent any Company Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder, Parent shall, on behalf of such Company Indemnitee, as promptly as practicable give written notice to the Chairman Parties (a “Claim Notice”) describing in reasonable detail the facts giving rise to any claim for indemnification hereunder and, to the extent practicable, shall include in such Claim Notice the amount (if then known), or good faith estimate of the amount and the method of computation of the amount of such claim. The failure to make prompt delivery of such Claim Notice by Parent to the Chairman Parties shall not affect such Company Indemnitee’s rights to receive indemnification under this Agreement with respect to such matter, except to the extent the Chairman Parties shall have been materially prejudiced by failure to give such notice. In case of any Indemnification Event and upon any Claim Notice to the Chairman Parties, the Chairman Parties shall be entitled to participate, and Parent agrees not to object to or otherwise prevent their participation, at their own cost therein.

Section 5. Representations and Warranties of the Chairman Parties. Each of the Chairman Parties represents and warrants to Parent as follows:

(a) such Chairman Party has full power, capacity and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof;

(b) such Chairman Party has duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered this Agreement, and this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of such Chairman Party, enforceable against such Chairman Party in accordance with the terms hereof, except to the extent that such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws or by general equitable principles;

(c) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such Chairman Party does not, as applicable, (i) violate, conflict with, or constitute a breach of or default under its organizational documents or any material agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound or (ii) violate any Law applicable to such Chairman Party; and

(d) no consent or approval of, or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required to be obtained or made by such Chairman Party in connection with the execution and delivery hereof or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

4


Section 6. Miscellaneous.

(a) Term. The indemnification obligations of the Chairman Parties shall become effective upon the Effective Time (but shall apply to all Losses incurred or sustained from the date hereof) and shall terminate immediately and shall be of no further force or effect after the Expiration Date; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Chairman Parties shall be obligated to defend and hold harmless Parent from any and all Losses asserted against, incurred or sustained by any of the Company Indemnitees arising from or by reason of any Indemnification Event of which a Claim Notice was delivered by Parent prior to the Expiration Date, and in such case the Escrow Amount shall remain in effect notwithstanding Section 2(b) until final resolution of any such Indemnification Event in the form of a non-appealable final award.

(b) Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Rollover Agreement, the Voting Agreement and the Merger Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the Parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

(c) Further Assurances. The Parties shall, upon written request, execute, acknowledge, and deliver such other instruments and documents and take such further action as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement.

(d) Actions by Parent and Holdco. Each of the Chairman, as an affiliate of Parent and Holdco after the Merger, including in his capacity as the chairman of the board of directors of Holdco, and the Chairman Parties, (i) shall abstain or otherwise be excluded from any decision-making process of Parent and Holdco, including any vote of the board of directors of Parent or Holdco, in connection with any action to be taken by Parent or Holdco under this Agreement, and (ii) agrees to not object to, or seek to void, any decisions or actions by Parent or Holdco in connection with this Agreement.

(e) Assignment/Transfer; Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall not be assigned or transferred (whether pursuant to a merger, by operation of law or otherwise), except that Parent may (1) transfer all of its rights and obligations hereunder to any subsidiary of Parent and/or (2) assign any or all of its rights hereunder to any lender(s), financier(s) (including without limitation arrangers of financing) and/or hedging counterparty(ies) of Parent or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof and/or any agent or trustee acting on behalf of any of such lender(s), financier(s) and/or hedging counterparty(ies) (or their respective successors, assigns and transferees) (collectively “Financers”); provided, that no such assignment shall relieve the assigning party of its obligations hereunder if such assignee does not perform such obligations and that none of the Financiers shall have any obligation or liability to perform or discharge any of the obligations or liabilities of Parent under or in connection with this Agreement. Upon any transfer or assignment by Parent of any of its rights and/or obligations hereunder in accordance with this Section 6(e), any reference in this Agreement to Parent shall be construed as a reference to such person (to the extent of such rights and/or obligations to the extent so assigned to it and subject at all times to the proviso in the preceding sentence). Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any person other than the Parties hereto (or their respective successors, permitted assigns and transferees, provided that such assignees or transferees obtained an interest in this Agreement from Parent as a result of an assignment or transfer made in accordance with this Section 6 (e)) any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

5


(f) Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement and any of the terms hereof may be terminated, amended, supplemented or modified only in writing signed by the Parties hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the parties acknowledge and agree that a new company to be incorporated in the Cayman Islands is expected to be the direct parent of Parent (holding 100% of the equity interests in Parent) and the direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco prior to the Closing, in which case any references to Parent being a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco shall be modified accordingly. Any Party to this Agreement may, by written notice to another Party, extend the time for the performance of any obligation by the other Party or waive compliance with any of the agreements of the other Party in this Agreement; provided, that no waiver of any non-compliance with any provision of this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent non-compliance or limit or restrict any right or remedy otherwise available.
