6


 

pursuant to a request made pursuant to Section 2.2. The substantive provisions of Section 2.5 shall be applicable to the Registration initiated under this Section 2.1.
          2.2. Request for Registration on Form F-3. If any Holder requests in writing that the Company file a Registration Statement on Form F-3 (or any comparable form for a Registration in a jurisdiction other than the United States) for a public offering of shares of Registrable Securities, the reasonably anticipated aggregate price to the public of which, net of Selling Expenses, would not be less than US$2,000,000, and the Company is a registrant entitled to use Form F-3 (or any comparable form for a Registration for an offering in a jurisdiction other than the United States) to register the Registrable Securities, the Company shall (i) within ten (10 days of receipt of such written request, give written notice of the proposed Registration to all other Holders and other shareholders of the Company with piggyback registration rights, and (ii) use its best efforts to cause those Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to be Registered, together with all other Registrable Securities and securities of the Company other than the Registrable Securities which the Company has been requested to Register by holders thereof by written request given to the Company within ten (10) days after written notice from the Company, for the offering on that form and to cause those Registrable Securities and securities of the Company other than the Registrable Securities to be qualified in jurisdictions as the Holder or Holders may reasonably request, subject to limitations of this Section 2.

The substantive provisions of Section 2.5 shall be applicable to each Registration initiated under this Section 2.2.
          2.3. Right of Deferral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to file a Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 2:
  (a)   if no Registration Statement has been filed previously and the Company is in the process of preparing a Registration Statement and in good faith determines that such Registration Statement will be filed within sixty (60) days from the date of the receipt of the written request set forth in Section 2.1;
 
  (b)   if a Registration Statement had been filed previously, within one hundred eighty (180) days after the effective date of, any Registration Statement pertaining to the securities of the Company (other than a registration of securities in a Rule 145 transaction or with respect to an employee benefit plan or a registration from which the Registrable Securities of the Holders have been excluded (with respect to all or any portion of the Registrable Securities, the Holders requested to be included in such registration) pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.5(d) and 3.2(b)); or
 
  (c)   if the Company furnishes to those Holders a certificate signed by the chief executive officer of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board it would be seriously detrimental to the Company or its shareholders for a Registration Statement to be filed in the near future, then the Company’s obligation to use its best efforts to file a Registration Statement shall be deferred for a period not to exceed one hundred twenty

7


 

      (120) days from the receipt of the request to file the registration by that Holder; provided, that the Company shall not exercise the right to delay a request contained in this Section 2.3(b) more than once in any nine (9)-month period, and provided further, that during such one hundred twenty (120)-day period, the Company shall not file a Registration Statement with respect to any public offering of securities of the Company.
          2.4. Registration of Other Securities in Demand Registration. Any Registration Statement filed pursuant to the request of the Holders under this Section 2 may, subject to the provisions of Section 2.5, include securities of the Company other than Registrable Securities.
          2.5. Underwriting in Demand Registration.
  (a)   Notice of Underwriting. If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to this Section 2, and the Company shall include that information in the written notice referred to in Section 2.1 or 2.2 of this Agreement, as applicable. The right of any Shareholder to Registration pursuant to this Section 2 shall be conditioned upon such Shareholder’s agreement to participate in the underwriting and the inclusion of that Shareholder’s Registrable Securities or securities of the Company other than Registrable Securities, as the case may be, in the underwriting to the extent provided herein.
 
  (b)   Inclusion of Other Securities in Demand Registration. If the Company, officers or directors of the Company holding securities other than the Registrable Securities, or holders of securities other than the Registrable Securities, request inclusion of other securities of the Company held thereby in the Registration, to the extent that such securities are not entitled by right to be included in the Registration pursuant to piggyback registration rights, the Initiating Holders, to the extent they deem advisable, may, in their sole discretion, on behalf of all Holders, offer to any or all of the Company, those officers or directors, and the holders of securities other than the Registrable Securities, that their securities be included in the underwriting and may condition that offer on the acceptance by those Persons of the terms of this Section 2. If, however, the number of shares so included exceeds the number of shares of Registrable Securities included by all Holders, the Registration shall be treated as governed by Section 3 of this Agreement rather than this Section 2, and it shall not count as a Registration for purposes of this Section 2.
 
  (c)   Selection of underwriter in Demand Registration. The Company shall (together with all Shareholders proposing to distribute their securities through the underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or, if more than one, the lead underwriter acting as the representative of the underwriters (the “Underwriters’ Representative”) selected for the underwriting by the

8


 

      Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities (calculated on an as-converted basis) to be Registered in the proposed offering.
 
  (d)   Marketing Limitation in Demand Registration. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2, in the event the Underwriters’ Representative advises the Company in writing that market factors (including, without limitation, the aggregate number of shares of Ordinary Shares requested to be Registered, the general condition of the market, and the status of the Persons proposing to sell securities pursuant to the Registration) require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the Company shall so advise all Shareholders proposing to distribute their securities through the underwriting, and the number of shares of Registrable Securities that may be included in the Registration and underwriting shall be allocated among all Holders in proportion on an as-converted basis, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable Securities entitled to inclusion in that Registration held by those Holders at the time of filing the Registration Statement, provided, however, that the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be included in any such underwriting held by Holders shall not be reduced unless all other securities of the Company are first entirely excluded from the underwriting. In no event shall the number the Registrable Securities included in any such underwriting be reduced to less than 30% of the numbers of the Registrable Securities requested to be included. No Registrable Securities or other securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of this Section 2.5(d) shall be included in that Registration Statement. To facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the foregoing, the Company or the underwriters may round the number of shares allocated to any Holder to the nearest 100 shares.
 
  (e)   Right of Withdrawal in Demand Registration. If any Holder of Registrable Securities, or a Shareholder of other securities entitled (upon request) to be included in that Registration, disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such Holder or Shareholder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company, the Underwriters’ Representative, and other Shareholders proposing to distribute their securities through the underwriting, delivered at least fifteen (15) days prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement. The securities so withdrawn shall also be withdrawn from the Registration Statement.
          2.6. Other Securities Laws in Demand Registration. In the event of any Registration pursuant to this Section 2, the Company shall exercise its best efforts to Register and qualify the securities covered by the Registration Statement under the securities laws of any other jurisdictions as shall be reasonably appropriate for the distribution of the securities, except for any particular jurisdiction (other than the United States or any jurisdiction on which the Registrable Securities are being proposed to be listed) in which the Company would be required solely as a result of such Registration to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such Registration, qualification, or compliance, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event any jurisdiction in which the securities shall be qualified imposes a

9


 

non-waivable requirement that expenses incurred in connection with the qualification of the securities be borne by selling shareholders, the expenses shall be payable pro rata by the selling shareholders.
     3. Unlimited Piggyback Registration.
          3.1. Notice of Piggyback Registration and Inclusion of Registrable Securities. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, if the Company decides to Register any of its Ordinary Shares (either for its own account, for the account of a security holder or both), the Company shall (a) promptly give each Holder written notice thereof (which shall include a list of the jurisdictions in which the Company intends to attempt to qualify those securities under the applicable Blue Sky or other securities laws), and (b) include in that Registration (and any related qualification under Blue Sky laws or other compliance), and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request delivered to the Company by any Holder within twenty (20) days after delivery of the written notice from the Company. If a Holder decides not to include all of its Registrable Securities in any registration statement thereafter filed by the Company, such Holder shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include any Registrable Securities in any subsequent registration statement or registration statements as may be filed by the Company with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.
          3.2. Underwriting in Piggyback Registration.
  (a)   Notice of Underwriting in Piggyback Registration. If the Registration of which the Company gives notice is for a Registered Public Offering, the Company shall so advise the Holders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 3.1. In this event, the right of any Holder to Registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s agreement to participate in the underwriting and the inclusion of that Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting, to the extent provided in this Section 3. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company and the other holders distributing their securities through the underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriters’ Representative for such offering. The Holders shall have no right to participate in the selection of the underwriters for an offering pursuant to this Section 3.
 
  (b)   Marketing Limitation in Piggyback Registration. In the event the Underwriters’ Representative advises the Holders seeking Registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 3 in writing that market factors (including, without limitation, the aggregate number of shares of Ordinary Shares requested to be Registered, the general condition of the market, and the status of the Persons proposing to sell securities pursuant to the Registration) require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the Underwriters’ Representative (subject to the allocation priority set forth in Section 3.2(c)) may:

10


 

  (i)   in the case of a Registered Initial Public Offering, exclude some or all Registrable Securities from the Registration and underwriting; and
 
  (ii)   in the case of any Registered Public Offering subsequent to the initial public offering, limit the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be included in the Registration and underwriting, to not less than 20% of the securities included in the Registration.
  (c)   Allocation of Shares in Piggyback Registration. In the event that the Underwriters’ Representative limits the number of shares to be included in a Registration pursuant to Section 3.2(b), the number of shares to be included in the Registration shall be allocated among the Holders and other Shareholders (other than the Registrable Securities) requesting and legally entitled to include securities in that Registration, in proportion and on an as-converted basis, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of securities (including the Registrable Securities) which the Holders and the other Shareholders would otherwise be entitled to include in the Registration. For any Registration subsequent to an Initial Public Offering, the number of shares that may be included in the Registration and underwriting under this Section 3.2(c) shall not be reduced to less than 20% of the aggregate securities included in the Registration without the prior consent of Holders of at least a majority of the Shares (calculated on an as-converted basis) who have requested their shares be included in the Registration and underwriting. No Registrable Securities or other securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of this Section 3.2(c) shall be included in the Registration Statement.
 
  (d)   Withdrawal in Piggyback Registration. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the Underwriters’ Representative delivered at least fifteen (15) days prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement. Any Registrable Securities or other securities excluded or withdrawn from the underwriting shall be withdrawn from the Registration.
 
  (e)   Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any Registration initiated by it under this Section 3.2 prior to the effectiveness of such Registration whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such registration. The Registration Expenses of such withdrawn Registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 4 hereof.
     4. Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with each of the Registrations pursuant to Section 2.1 and unlimited Registrations pursuant to Sections 2.2 and 3, shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any Registration Expenses of any Registration begun pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.2 if the Registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders pursuant to Section 2.5(e) of this Agreement (in which case all selling Shareholders shall

11


 

bear such expenses pro rata upon the number of Registrable Securities that were to be included in the withdrawn Registration). All Selling Expenses shall be borne by the holders of the securities Registered pro rata on the basis of the number of securities so Registered.
     5. Assignability of Registration Rights; Termination of Registration Rights; Limitation on Subsequent Registration Rights
          5.1. Assignability of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to Register securities granted under Sections 2 and 3 of this Agreement shall be assignable by a Preferred Investor to any Person based on any permitted transfer of its Shares set forth in Clause 5.2 of the Amended and Restated Shareholders Agreement. No other party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the written consent of the Company and a majority of the Preferred Shares held by the Preferred Investors (with the Preferred Shares held by the Preferred Investors voting as a single class on an as-converted basis).
          5.2. Termination of Registration Rights.

     7. Indemnification.
          7.1. Company’s Indemnification of Holders. To the extent permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify each Holder, each of its officers, directors, partners, agents, legal counsel for the Holders, and each Person controlling that Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act, with respect to which Registration, qualification, or compliance of the Registrable Securities has been effected pursuant to this Agreement, and each underwriter, if any, and each of its officers, directors, partners, agents and each Person who controls any underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act against all claims, losses, damages, liabilities, or actions in respect thereof (collectively, “Damages”) to the extent the Damages arise out of or are based upon any

17


 

untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or other document incident to any Registration, qualification, or compliance, or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein (in the case of a Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, or any violation by the Company (or alleged violation) of any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, Exchange Act, applicable Blue Sky laws, or other applicable laws in the jurisdiction other than the United States in which the Registration occurred, applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any Registration, qualification, or compliance; and the Company shall reimburse each such Holder, each underwriter, each of their respective officers, directors, partners, agents, legal counsels, and each Person who controls any Holder or underwriter, for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity contained in this Section 7.1 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Damages if settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld); and provided, further, that the Company will not be liable in any case to the extent that any Damages arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in that Registration Statement, prospectus, or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by a Holder or underwriter, if any, and stated to be specifically for use in connection with the offering of securities of the Company.
          7.2. Holder’s Indemnification of Company. To the extent permitted by law, each Holder shall, if the Registrable Securities held by that Holder are included in the securities as to which Registration, qualification or, compliance is being effected pursuant to this Agreement, indemnify the Company, each of its directors and officers, each legal counsel and independent accountant of the Company, each underwriter, if any, of the Company’s securities covered by the Registration Statement, each Person who controls the Company or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, and each other Holder selling securities under such Registration, each of its such other Holder’s, officers, directors, and constituent partners, and each Person controlling the other Holder, against all Damages arising out of or based upon any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in such Registration Statement, prospectus, or other document incident to any Registration, qualification or compliance, or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein (in the case of a Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, or any violation (or alleged violation) by the Holder of any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, Exchange Act, applicable Blue Sky laws, or other applicable laws in the jurisdiction other than the United States in which the Registration occurred, applicable to the Holder and relating to action or inaction required of the Holder in connection with any Registration, qualification, or compliance, and shall reimburse the Company, those Holders, directors, officers, partners, Persons, law and accounting firms, underwriters or control Persons for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any claim, loss, damage, liability, or action, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that the untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in that Registration Statement, prospectus, or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by that Holder and stated to be specifically for use in connection with the offering of securities of the Company, provided, however, that the indemnity contained in this Section 7.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Damages if settlement is effected without the consent of that Holder (which

18


 

consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and provided, further, that each Holder’s liability under this Section 7.2 shall not exceed the Holder’s proceeds (less underwriting discounts and selling commissions) from the offering of securities made in connection with that Registration.
          7.3. Indemnification Procedure. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 7, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof and generally summarize the action. The indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in and to assume the defense of that claim; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall be entitled to select counsel for the defense of the claim with the approval of any parties entitled to indemnification, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided further, however, that if either party reasonably determines that there may be a conflict between the position of the Company and the Shareholders in conducting the defense of the action, suit, or proceeding by reason of recognized claims for indemnity under this Section 7, then counsel for that party shall be entitled to conduct the defense to the extent reasonably determined by counsel to be necessary to protect the interests of that party. The failure to notify an indemnifying party promptly of the commencement of any action, if prejudicial to the ability of the indemnifying party to defend the action, shall relieve the indemnifying party, to the extent so prejudiced, of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 7, but the omission to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the party of any liability that the party may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 7.
          7.4. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any Damages, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of those Damages in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and of the indemnified party, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in Damages as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying or the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent the statement or omission.
          7.5. Conflicts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control.
          7.6. Survival of Obligations. The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 7 shall survive the completion of any offering of the Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement under this Agreement or otherwise.
          8. Lock-Up. Each Shareholder hereby agrees that, if requested by the Company and the Underwriters’ Representative (if any) in connection with the Company’s initial public offering, the Shareholder shall not sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Registrable Securities or other securities of the Company without the prior written consent of the Company and the Underwriters’ Representative for such

19


 

period of time (not to exceed 180 days) following the effective date of a Registration Statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act (or other applicable law in a jurisdiction other than the United States in which a Registration occurred) as may be requested by the Underwriters’ Representative. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the foregoing provision contained in this Section 8 shall not restrict Citigroup Inc. and its Affiliates, respectively, from engaging in any brokerage, investment advisory, financial advisory, anti-raid advisory, merger advisory, financing, asset management, trading, market making, arbitrage and other similar activities conducted in the ordinary course of its or its affiliates’ business, so long as such activities are not conducted in respect of the Registrable Securities (or by virtue of a short position undertaken to benefit from the cover of the Registrable Securities, or the issuance of a derivative security designed to benefit from the value of the Registrable Securities) of the Company directly owned by Citigroup Inc.
     9. No-Action Letter or Opinion of Counsel in Lieu of Registration; Conversion of Preferred Shares. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, if (a) the Company obtains from the Commission (or a comparable regulatory agency in respect of Registration in a jurisdiction other than the United States) a “no-action” letter in which the Commission or such comparable regulatory agency has indicated that it will take no action if, without Registration under the Securities Act or comparable law, any Holder disposes of the Registrable Securities covered by any request for Registration made under Section 2 of this Agreement in the specific manner in which the Holder proposes to dispose of the Registrable Securities included in that request (such as including, without limitation, inclusion of the Registrable Securities in an underwriting initiated by either the Company or the Holders) and that the Registrable Securities may be sold to the public without Registration; or (b) in the opinion of counsel for the Company concurred by counsel for the Holder, no Registration under the Securities Act (or other applicable law) is required in connection with the disposition and that the Registrable Securities may be sold to the public without Registration, then the Registrable Securities included in the request shall not be eligible for Registration under this Agreement. Any Registrable Securities not so disposed of shall be eligible for Registration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement with respect to other proposed dispositions to which this Section 9 does not apply. The Registration rights of the Holders of the Registrable Securities set forth in this Agreement are conditioned upon the conversion of the Registrable Securities with respect to which Registration is sought into Ordinary Shares prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement.
     10. Reports Under the Exchange Act. With a view to making available to Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and any other rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without Registration or pursuant to a Registration on Form F-3, the Company agrees to:
  (a)   make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, at all times after 90 days after the effective date of the first Registration Statement filed by the Company for the offering of its securities to the public;
  (b)   take all reasonable action, including the voluntary Registration of its Ordinary Shares under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, necessary to enable the Holders to utilize Form F-3 for the sale of their Registrable Securities, such action to be taken as soon as practicable after the end of the fiscal year

20


 

      in which the first Registration Statement filed by the Company for the offering of its securities to the general public is declared effective;
 
  (c)   file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act;
 
  (d)   furnish to any Holder, so long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities, promptly upon request (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 (at any time after 90 days after the effective date of the first Registration Statement filed by the Company), the Securities Act, and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to those reporting requirements), or that it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form F-3 (at any time after it so qualifies); (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and any other reports and documents filed by the Company; and (iii) any other information as may be reasonably requested in availing any Holder of any rule or regulation of the Commission which permits the selling of any securities without Registration or pursuant to that form; and
 
  (e)   for a Registration in a jurisdiction other than the United States, take actions similar to those set forth in paragraphs (a), (b), (c) and (d) of this Section 10 with a view to making, available to Holders the benefits of the corresponding provision or provisions of that jurisdiction’s securities laws.
     11. Compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Company covenants that it will fully comply with all the requirements of the United States Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, and any rules and regulations thereunder adopted from time to time by the Commission and any other applicable laws, in each case to the extent applicable to the Company.
     12. Miscellaneous.
          12.1. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.
          12.2. Counterparts and Facsimile Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Any counterpart or other signature delivered by facsimile shall be deemed for all purposes as being a good and valid execution and delivery of this Agreement by that party.
          12.3. Headings. The headings of the Sections of this Agreement are for convenience and shall not by themselves determine the interpretation of this Agreement.
