ARTICLE 3
DIVIDENDS
 
3.1  
Accrual of Dividends.
 
(a)  
Rate. Preferred dividends (“Dividends”) on each Convertible Preferred Share shall accrue from the Initial Issue Date at per annum rate of five percent (5%) of the Stated Value of such Convertible Preferred Share on [•] of each year or, if any such date is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, a “Dividend Accrual Date”).  Any Dividends will be payable only as provided in Section 3.1(b) below.  The first Dividend Accrual Date will be [•], 2012.  Dividends shall begin to accrue from the Initial Issue Date, whether or not the Company has funds legally available for such dividends or such dividends are declared.
 
(b)  
Payment of Dividends.  Dividends shall be paid in cash only to the extent the Company has funds legally available for such payment and the Board declares a dividend payable.  On the day after each Dividend Accrual Date, the amount of Dividends not paid in cash with respect to each Convertible Preferred Share shall be added to the Stated Value of such Convertible Preferred Share.
 
(c)  
Payment of Common Share Dividends.  In case the Company shall at any time or from time to time, declare, order, pay or make a dividend or other distribution (including, without limitation, any distribution of Common Shares or other securities or property or rights or options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase securities of the Company by way of dividend or spin off) on the Common Shares, other than any dividend or distribution of shares of Common Shares covered by Section 4.4(a)(i) below, then, and in each such case, the holders of Convertible Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive from the Company, with respect to each Convertible Preferred Share held, in addition to the dividends payable under Section 3.1(a) and Section 3.1(b) above, the same dividend or distribution that would be payable or made to a holder of Common Shares into which such Convertible Preferred Share is convertible on the record date for such dividend or distribution.  Any such dividend or distribution shall be declared, ordered, paid or made on the Convertible Preferred Shares at the same time such dividend or distribution is declared, ordered, paid or made on the Common Shares and shall be in addition to any dividends payable under Section 3.1(a) and Section 3.1(b) above.

The Board may fix a record date for the determination of holders of the Convertible Preferred Shares entitled to receive payment of any Dividends, which record date shall not be more than sixty (60) days nor less than ten (10) days prior to the date on which any such dividend is paid.
 
 
 
B-2

 
 
3.3  
Ranking.
 
The Convertible Preferred Shares shall, with respect to dividend rights, rights on other distributions and rights upon any liquidation or dissolution of the Company, rank senior to the Common Shares and any other shares in the Company's share capital that may be authorized after the date hereof (“Junior Shares”).  Unless all Dividends accrued on the Convertible Preferred Shares have been paid or funds set apart for the payment thereof, no dividends may be paid on, or funds set apart for the payment of any dividends on, any Junior Shares unless the Majority Holders otherwise consent in writing.  So long as any Convertible Preferred Shares remain outstanding, no Junior Shares may be redeemed, repurchased or otherwise acquired by the Company unless the Majority Holders consent to such redemption, repurchase or acquisition in writing.
 
ARTICLE 4
CONVERSION
 
4.1  
Right to Convert.
 
(a)  
Optional Conversion. At any time and from time to time, without the payment of additional consideration thereof, any holder of Convertible Preferred Shares shall have the right, at its option, to convert, all or any portion of the Convertible Preferred Shares held by it into Common Shares (“Conversion Shares”) at the then applicable conversion rate (the "Conversion Rate").
 
(b)  
Automatic Conversion. Upon the consummation of a Qualified Public Offering in which the sale price of the offered securities (before underwriting discounts and commission and transaction fees and expenses) exceeds the product of 2.0 multiplied by the Initial Conversion Price (as adjusted from time to time as provided herein), without the payment of additional consideration thereof, all the Convertible Preferred Shares shall be automatically converted into Conversion Shares at the then applicable Conversion Rate.
 
(c)  
For purposes hereof, the Conversion Rate at any time shall be determined by dividing an amount (the “Conversion Base Amount”) equal to the sum of (x) the Stated Value per share plus (y) the amount of any accrued Dividends per share then remaining unpaid on each Convertible Preferred Share being converted by the then applicable Conversion Price per share.  The "Conversion Price" shall initially be equal to the US$3.20 per share (the “Initial Conversion Price”), but shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided herein.
 
 
 
B-3

 
 
4.2  
Mechanism of Conversion.
 
(a)  
Conversion shall be effected by multiplying the Conversion Rate for the Convertible Preferred Shares being converted by the number of such shares and issuing in exchange therefor a number of Conversion Shares equal to the product of such multiplication. In order to exercise its conversion right, the holder of the Convertible Preferred Shares to be converted shall surrender the certificate representing such shares to the Company, with a notice of election to convert (in the case of optional conversion pursuant to Section 4.1(a)), duly completed and signed, at the principal office of the Company.  Unless the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion are to be issued in the same name as the name in which the Convertible Preferred Shares are registered, each share certificate surrendered for conversion shall be accompanied by stock power or instruments of transfer duly executed by the holder or his duly authorized attorney.
 
(b)  
As promptly as practicable after the surrender by a holder of the certificates for the Convertible Preferred Shares (together with a duly completed and signed notice of election to convert in the case of optional conversion pursuant to Section 4.1(a)) and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after such surrender, the Company shall issue and deliver to the Person for whose account such certificate was surrendered, or to its nominee or nominees, a certificate or certificates for the number of Conversion Shares or other securities issuable upon the conversion of those shares and any fractional interest in respect of Conversion Shares or other securities arising upon the conversion shall be settled as provided below.
 
(c)  
Conversion shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the date on which the holder delivers the certificates for the Convertible Preferred Shares and the notice of election to convert to the Company, and the Person or Persons in whose name or names any Conversion Shares or other securities issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of such Conversion Shares or other securities at such time on such date and such conversion shall be at the Conversion Price in effect at such time, unless the stock ledger of Company shall be closed on such date, in which event such Person or Persons shall be deemed to have become such holder or holders of record at the close of business on the next succeeding day on which such stock ledger is open, and such conversion shall be at the Conversion Price in effect on the date such stock ledger is open.  All Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Preferred Shares will upon issuance be duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable, free of all liens and charges and not subject to any preemptive rights.  Upon any such conversion of the Convertible Preferred Shares, such shares shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights of a holder with respect to such shares shall immediately terminate upon the issuance of such Conversion Shares.
 
4.3  
No Fractional Shares.
 
No fractional shares or securities representing fractional Common Shares shall be issued upon conversion of the Convertible Preferred Shares.  Any fractional interest in Common Shares resulting from conversion of the Convertible Preferred Shares shall be paid in cash (computed to the nearest cent) equal to such fraction multiplied by the fair market value per Common Share as reasonably determined by the Board.  If more than one certificate representing Convertible Preferred Shares shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same holder, the number of full Common Shares issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of the Convertible Preferred Shares so surrendered for conversion.
 
 
B-4

 
 
4.4  
Adjustment of Conversion Price.
 
The Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment as follows if any of the events listed below occur prior to the conversion of any Convertible Preferred Shares being converted pursuant to Section 4.1.
 
(a)  
In case the Company shall (i) pay a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Shares in Common Shares, (ii) subdivide or reclassify its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares, or (iii) consolidate or reclassify its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such event shall be adjusted so that the holder of the Convertible Preferred Shares thereafter converted shall be entitled to receive the number of Common Shares of the Company which it would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of such event had the Convertible Preferred Shares been converted immediately prior to the happening of such event.  An adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and shall become effective on the effective date in the case of subdivision, combination or reclassification.  If any dividend or distribution is not paid or made, the Conversion Price then in effect shall be appropriately readjusted.
 
(b)  
In case the Company shall (i) issue Common Shares, (ii) issue rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares, or (iii) issue or sell other rights for Common Shares or securities (including issuances of Convertible Preferred Shares, other than in Exempt Issuances) whether or not convertible or exchangeable into Common Shares (any of the issuances in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii), hereinafter "New Securities"), for a consideration per share less than the then effective Conversion Price on the date the Company issues or sells such New Securities, then in each such case the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such New Securities shall be reduced, concurrently with the issue of such New Securities, to the price (calculated to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent) determined in accordance with the following formula:
 
CP2=CP1  X
(A + B)
(A + C)
 
 
For purposes of the foregoing formula, the following definitions shall apply: (1) CP2 shall mean the Conversion Price in effect immediately after such issue of New Securities; (2) CP1 shall mean the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issue of New Securities; (3) "A" shall mean the number of Common Shares outstanding (calculated on an as converted and fully-diluted basis) immediately prior to such issue of New Securities; (4) "B" shall mean the number of Common Shares (calculated on an as converted and fully-diluted basis) that would have been issued if such New Securities had been issued at a price per share equal to CP1 (determined by dividing the aggregate consideration received by the Company in respect of such issue by CP1); and (5) "C" shall mean the number of such New Securities (calculated on an as converted and fully-diluted basis) issued in such transaction.
 
 
B-5

 
 
The adjustment provided for in this Section 4.4(b) shall be made successively whenever any New Securities are issued (provided that no further adjustments in the Conversion Price shall be made upon the subsequent exercise, conversion or exchange, as applicable, of such New Securities pursuant to the original terms of any such New Securities that are convertible into, exchangeable for or exercisable for the purchase of Common Shares) and shall become effective immediately after such issuance. If any or all of such New Securities that are convertible into, exchangeable for or exercisable for the purchase of Common Shares expire or terminate without having been exercised, converted or exchanged, the Conversion Price then in effect shall be appropriately readjusted to the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such New Securities, subject, however, to such other adjustments as may have been made or that would have otherwise been made under this Section 4.4(b) since the issuance of such New Securities.
 
(c)  
Performance-based Adjustment to Conversion Price.
 
(i)  
Fiscal Year 2011 Financial Statements. The calculation of the Conversion Price is based on a valuation of the Company which assumes that the Company’s net income after tax under U.S. GAAP, but excluding the effects of extraordinary gains, and non-cash expenses relating to options and warrants, and Qualified Public Offering related expenses as and when expensed in the Company’s annual financial report issued by a Big Four Auditing Firm for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2011 calculated in accordance with GAAP (“Baseline Amount”) and prepared on a pro forma basis will be no less than US$31,200,000.
 
(ii)  
Conversion Price Adjustments.  In the event that the Baseline Amount as reflected on the Company’s audited financial report for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2011 (the “2011 Financial Statements”):
 
(A)  
is less than US$31,200,000, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted, effective on the date of the issuance of the 2011 Financial Statements, in accordance with the following formula:
 
 
CP2 = CP1 x (A/B)
 
WHERE
 
CP2 shall mean the Conversion Price after giving effect to the adjustment pursuant to this Section 4(c);
 
CP1 shall mean the Initial Conversion Price;
 
A shall mean the Baseline Amount as reflected on the Baseline Audited Accounts expressed in U.S. Dollars; and
 
B shall mean US$31,200,000
 
 
 
B-6

 
 
 
(B)           is equal to or greater than US$31,200,000, no adjustment to the Conversion Price shall be made.
 
(iii)  
Any adjustment to the Conversion Price made pursuant to this Section 4(c) shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other prior or subsequent adjustments made to the Conversion Price as provided herein.
 
(d)  
In case the Company shall distribute to all holders of its Common Shares any share capital of the Company (other than Common Shares) or evidences of Indebtedness or cash or other assets (excluding regular cash dividends or distributions paid from retained earnings of the Company and dividends or distributions referred to in Section 4.4(a) above) or rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those referred to in Section 4.4(b) above) then, in each such case, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted so that it shall equal the prices determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the date of the distribution by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the date of the distribution less the then fair market value (as determined by an independent third-party appraiser appointed by the Company and acceptable to the Majority Holders) of the portion of the share capital, cash or assets or evidences of Indebtedness so distributed, or of the subscription rights, options or warrants so distributed or of such convertible or exchangeable securities, with respect to one Common Share, and the denominator of which shall be the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the date of the distribution.
 
Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made, and shall become effective retroactive to the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution.  If any such distribution is not made or if any or all of such rights, options or warrants expire or terminate without having been exercised, the Conversion Price then in effect shall be appropriately readjusted.
 
(e)  
In the event any securities of the Company (other than Convertible Preferred Shares) (collectively, the "Subject Securities"), are amended or otherwise modified by operation of their terms or otherwise (including, without limitation, by operation of such Subject Securities' anti-dilution provisions) in any manner whatsoever that results in (i) the reduction of the exercise, conversion or exchange price of such Subject Securities payable upon the exercise for, or conversion or exchange into, Common Shares or other securities exercisable for, or convertible or exchangeable into, Common Shares and/or (ii) such Subject Securities becoming exercisable for, or convertible or exchangeable into (A) more shares or a greater amount of Subject Securities which are, in turn exercisable for, or convertible or exchangeable into, Common Shares, or (B) more Common Shares, then such amendment or modification shall be treated as if the Subject Securities which have been amended or modified have been terminated and New Securities have been issued with the amended or modified terms for purposes of Section 4.4(b) above, the Company shall make all necessary adjustments (including successive adjustments if required) to the Conversion Price in accordance with Section 4.4(b) above.  On the expiration or termination of any such amended or modified Subject Securities for which adjustment has been made pursuant to the operation of the provisions of this Section 4.4(e) or Section 4.4(b) above, without such Subject Securities having been exercised, converted or exchanged in full pursuant to their terms, the Conversion Price shall be appropriately readjusted to reverse such previous adjustment.
 
(f)  
If the Company at any time or from time to time shall take any action affecting Convertible Preferred Shares similar to or having an effect similar to any of the actions described in Sections 4.4(a) through (e) above, then, and in each such case, the Conversion Price then in effect shall be adjusted in such manner as would be equitable to preserve, without dilution, the conversion rights of the Convertible Preferred Shares under this Section 4 under such circumstances.
 
(g)  
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 4.4 shall not apply to the issuance of any of the following (“Exempt Issuances”): (1) Common Shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Preferred Shares or conversion or exchange of New Securities where the Conversion Price had been adjusted concurrently with the issue of such New Securities in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.4; (2) up to 2,111,235 Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding warrants of the Company; (3) Common Shares issued pursuant to a Qualified Public Offering; (4) Common Shares issued in connection with a subdivision or consolidation of the Convertible Preferred Shares; and (5) Employee Incentive Awards (and any Common Shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of any such Employee Incentive Awards) the issuance of which (including the identity of the recipients, the amounts, exercise price and vesting schedule of such Employee Incentive Awards) has been specifically approved by the Board.
 
(h)  
Whenever the Conversion Price or the Conversion Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall promptly prepare a notice of the adjustment setting forth the relevant Conversion Price or the relevant Conversion Rate that is being adjusted and the date on which the adjustment becomes effective and shall mail the notice of such adjustment (together with a copy of an officer's certificate setting forth the facts requiring such adjustment) to each holder of Convertible Preferred Share at such holder's last address as shown on the stock ledger of the Company.
 
 
 
B-7

 
 
 
4.5  
Notice of Certain Events.
 
In case at any time prior to the conversion or redemption of all outstanding Convertible Preferred Shares:
 
(a)  
the Company shall authorize the granting to all the holders of Common Shares of rights to subscribe for or purchase any shares of any class or of any other rights; or
 
(b)  
there shall be any reclassification of the Common Shares of the Company other than a subdivision or combination of its outstanding Common Shares; or
 
(c)  
there shall be any capital reorganization by the Company; or
 
(d)  
there shall be a consolidation or merger involving the Company or sale of all or substantially all of the Company's property and assets; or

there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up by the Company or dividend or distribution to holders of Common Shares; or
 
(f)  
any other Realization Event or any other event which would cause an adjustment in the Conversion Price or Conversion Rate shall occur;
 
then in any one or more of said cases, the Company shall cause to be delivered to the holders of the Convertible Preferred Shares, at the earliest practicable time (and, in any event, not less than fifteen (15) days before any record date or the date set for definitive action), notice of the date on which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken for such dividend, distribution or subscription rights or such reorganization, sale, consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or winding up or other transaction shall take place, as the case may be.  Such notice shall also set forth such facts as shall indicate the effect of such action (to the extent such effect may be known at the date of such notice) on the Conversion Price and the kind and amount of the shares and other securities and property deliverable upon conversion of the Convertible Preferred Shares, as well as a comparison of what (if anything) the holders of Convertible Preferred Shares would be entitled to receive in connection with such action if such holders elect not to convert their Convertible Preferred Shares.  Such notice shall also specify the date, if known, as of which the holders of record of the Common Shares shall participate in said dividend, distribution or subscription rights or shall be entitled to exchange their Common Shares for securities or other property (including cash) deliverable upon such reorganization, sale, consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or winding up or other transaction, as the case may be, and the right of the holders of Convertible Preferred Shares to convert their Convertible Preferred Shares into Common Shares as of such date.
 
 
B-8

 
 
 
4.6  
Reservation of Common Shares.
 
(a)  
The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available, out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued Common Shares, for the purpose of effecting conversions of the Convertible Preferred Shares, the full number of Common Shares issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding Convertible Preferred Shares not theretofore converted including, for purposes of this paragraph, the number of Common Shares which shall be issuable upon conversion of all of the outstanding Convertible Preferred Shares which shall be computed as if, at the time of computation, all of the outstanding shares were held by a single holder.  The Company shall from time to time, in accordance with the laws of the state of Delaware, increase the authorized amount of its Common Shares if at any time the number of Common Shares remaining unissued shall not be sufficient to permit the conversion of all the then outstanding Convertible Preferred Shares.
 
(b)  
Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment reducing the Conversion Price below the then par value of the Common Shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Preferred Shares, the Company will take any corporate action which may be necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Common Shares at the adjusted Conversion Price.
 
4.7  
Taxes.
 
Except where registration is requested in a name other than the name of the registered holder, the Company will pay any and all documentary stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes payable in respect of the issue or delivery of Common Shares on conversion of the Convertible Preferred Shares pursuant hereto, but not any income, capital gain or other similar tax, including any such tax that may be levied on the increase in value between the applicable Conversion Price and value of the Conversion Shares.
 
4.8  
Merger, Consolidation, Etc.
 
In case of any reclassification or change of outstanding Common Shares (other than a change in par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination), or in case of any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company with or into, any other entity that results in a reclassification, change, conversion, exchange or cancellation of outstanding Common Shares or any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, each holder of the Convertible Preferred Shares then outstanding shall have the right thereafter to convert the Convertible Preferred Shares held by such holder into the kind and amount of securities, cash and other property which the holder would have been entitled to receive upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or transfer if immediately prior to the reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or transfer such holder had held the Common Shares then issuable upon conversion of such Convertible Preferred Shares.
 
 
 
B-9

 
 
4.9  
Protection of Conversion Rights.
 
The Company will not, by amendment of the Certificate of Incorporation or its By-laws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Article 4 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of the holders of the Convertible Preferred Shares against impairment.
 
4.10  
Cancellation of Converted Shares.
 
Upon any conversion of the Convertible Preferred Shares, the shares so converted shall be cancelled and shall not be reissued, and the Company may from time to time take such appropriate action as may be necessary to diminish the authorized number of Convertible Preferred Shares accordingly.
 
ARTICLE 5
PRE-EMPTIVE RIGHTS
 
5.1  
Without prejudice to Section 4.4(b), if at any time the Company wishes to issue any New Securities to any Person or Persons, the Company shall promptly deliver a notice of its intention to issue such New Securities (an “Issuance Notice”) to the holders of the outstanding Convertible Preferred Shares setting forth a description of the New Securities to be issued, the proposed purchase price thereof and the other material terms of sale.  Upon receipt of the Issuance Notice, each holder of the outstanding Convertible Preferred Shares shall have the right to purchase, at the price and on the terms stated in the Issuance Notice, a number of the New Securities equal to the product of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is such holder’s aggregate ownership of Common Shares (calculated on an as converted and fully-diluted basis) and the denominator of which is the number of the Company’s total issued and outstanding Common Shares (calculated on an as converted and fully-diluted basis), multiplied by (ii) the number of New Securities to be issued.  Such election is to be made by such holder by written notice to the Company within twenty (20) calendar days after receipt by such holder of the Issuance Notice (the “Acceptance Period”).
 
5.2  
If any holder of the outstanding Convertible Preferred Shares gives the Company notice pursuant to Section 5.1 that such holder desires to purchase all or any of the New Securities it is entitled to purchase (the “Elected New Securities”), payment therefore shall be made by check or wire transfer, against issuance of such New Securities at the executive offices of the Company, within thirty (30) calendar days after such notice is delivered to the Company.  In the event that the Issuance Notice specifies that consideration other than cash is to be paid in connection with any issuance of New Securities, in lieu of such other consideration, such holder of the outstanding Convertible Preferred Shares will be entitled to pay the cash equivalent of such other consideration, as determined by an independent third-party appraiser jointly appointed by the Company and such holder.
 
 
 
B-10

 
 
5.3  
The Company may, at its election, during a period of ninety (90) calendar days following the expiration of the Acceptance Period, sell and issue the New Securities described in the related Issuance Notice (other than any Elected New Securities) to another Person or Persons at a price and upon terms not more favourable to such Person or Persons than those stated in such Issuance Notice.  In the event the Company has not sold such New Securities within such ninety (90) day period, the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any New Securities without first offering such securities to the holders of the outstanding Convertible Preferred Shares in the manner provided in Section 5.1 hereof.  Failure by any holder of the outstanding Convertible Preferred Shares to exercise its preemptive rights under this Section 5 with respect to any issuance of New Securities shall not affect its right to exercise such rights with respect to any subsequent issuance of New Securities.
 
5.4  
The preemptive rights contained in this Section 5 shall not apply to any Exempt Issuance.
 
ARTICLE 6 
VOTING RIGHTS
 
6.1  
Voting.
 
The issued and outstanding Convertible Preferred Shares shall be voted at any annual or extraordinary general meeting of the Company upon the following basis:  the holders of any Convertible Preferred Shares shall be entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of Common Shares into which such Convertible Preferred Shares could be converted at the record date for determination of the shareholders entitled to vote on such matters, or, if no such record date is established, at the date such vote is taken, such votes to be counted together with all other shares of the Company having general voting power and not counted separately as a class.
 
6.2  
Matters Requiring Approval of the Majority Holders.
 
So long as the outstanding Convertible Preferred Shares constitute at least five percent (5%) of the Common Shares on an as converted and fully-diluted basis, the Company shall not take, and shall procure that none of the its Subsidiaries will take, any of the following actions without the prior approval of the Majority Holders:

B-11

 
 
 
(b)  
The authorization or issuance of any class of shares with powers, rights, preferences or privileges that are senior to or on a parity with the Convertible Preferred Shares;
 
(c)  
Any merger, acquisition, consolidation, scheme of arrangement, reclassification of share capital, recapitalization, or any other similar transaction involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, provided that any of the above action would require shareholders’ approval;
 
(d)  
Any Substantial Asset Sale;
 
(e)  
Any increase or decrease of the authorized number of the board of directors to more than seven (7), except for a further increase may be required under the listing requirements of a securities exchange; and

Each holder of the outstanding Convertible Preferred Shares shall have the right, at its option, by delivering a written notice (the “Redemption Notice”) to the Company within thirty (30) Business Days after receipt of the Event Notice, to request the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Convertible Preferred Shares held by such holder as specified in the Redemption Notice at the Realization Event Redemption Price or the Default Event Redemption Price per share, as the case may be, in a manner specified in Section 7.3 below.  For the purposes hereof, any Convertible Preferred Shares with respect to which a Redemption Notice has been given in accordance with Section 7.1 are sometimes referred to herein as “Redeemable Shares”.

(c) Indemnification Mechanics.  If there occurs an event which a Company Indemnified Person or a Holder Indemnified Person (any such Person being the “Indemnitee”) hereto asserts is an indemnifiable event pursuant to this Section, the Indemnitee shall promptly notify the party obligated to provide indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnitor”) in writing of such event.  Delay or failure to so notify the Indemnitor shall only relieve the Indemnitor of its obligations to the extent, if at all, that it is actually prejudiced by reason of such delay or failure.  The Indemnitor shall have a period of 20 calendar days in which to respond thereto.  If the Indemnitor accepts responsibility within such 20 calendar day period, then the Indemnitor shall be obligated to compromise or defend, at its own expense, such matter, and the Indemnitor shall provide the Indemnitee with such assurances as may be reasonably required by the Indemnitee to assure that the Indemnitor shall assume and be responsible for the Losses at issue (subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement).  If the Indemnitor fails to assume the defense of such matter within such 20 calendar day period or does not respond within such 20 calendar day period, the Indemnitee against which such matter has been asserted shall (upon delivering notice to such effect to the Indemnitor) have the right to undertake, at the Indemnitor’s cost and expense, the defense, compromise or settlement of such matter on behalf of the Indemnitee.  In any event, the Indemnitee shall have the right to participate at its own expense in the defense of such asserted liability; provided, however, that the Indemnitor shall pay the expenses of such defense if the Indemnitee is advised by counsel in writing that there are one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnitee that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnitor (in which case, if the Indemnitee notifies the Indemnitor in writing, the Indemnitor shall not have the right to assume the defense of such asserted liability on behalf of the Indemnitee).
 
 
D-14

 
 
(d) Contribution.  If the indemnification provided for in this Section is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnitee with respect to any Losses, then the Indemnitor, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnitee hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnitee as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnitor on the one hand and of the Indemnitee on the other in connection with the Violation that resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that in no event shall any contribution under this Section 2.07(d) from such Registrable Securities Holders, together with the amount of any indemnification payments made by such Holder pursuant to Section 2.07(b) above, exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Registrable Securities Holders.  The relative fault of the Indemnitor and of the Indemnitee shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the Violation relates to information supplied by the Indemnitor or the Indemnitee and the parties relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such Violation.
 
(e) No Inconsistent Underwriting Agreements.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Registrable Securities Holders shall not be required to enter into an underwriting agreement that contains indemnification and contribution provisions which, in the sole discretion of such Registrable Securities Holders, materially differ from those contained in this Section 2.07.

Section 2.09. Subsequent Registration Rights.  From and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of holders of a majority of the outstanding Registrable Securities, enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any Securities of the Company which provides such holder or prospective holder of Securities of the Company the right (a) to include such Securities in any registration filed under Sections 2.01, 2.02 or 2.03 hereof, unless under the terms of such agreement, such holder or prospective holder may include such Securities in any such registration only to the extent that the inclusion of such securities shall not reduce the amount of the Registrable Securities that are included or (b) to demand registration of their Securities.
 
 
D-15

 
 
Section 2.10. Registration in Non-U.S. Jurisdictions.  In the event that the Common Shares cease to be listed on the OTCBB and are not listed on a nationally recognized stock exchange in the United States, but the Company has listed its Common Shares on any Designated Offshore Securities Market or other internationally recognized securities exchange, then the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to provide the Registrable Securities Holders with substantially the same rights and benefits in such jurisdiction as are provided for in this Agreement, and to take such steps, if any, consistent with customary market practice at the time so that the Registrable Securities are freely transferable in such listed market without transfer restrictions imposed by the securities or similar laws of such jurisdiction.

The First Refusal Notice shall set forth the number of Offered Shares that such Preferred Shareholder wishes to purchase, which amount shall not exceed the First Refusal Allotment (as defined below) of such Preferred Shareholder.  Such right of first refusal may be exercised as follows:
 
(i) First Refusal Allotment.

(iii) Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Offered Shares to be purchased by the Preferred Shareholders exercising their right of first refusal will be the price set forth in the Notice of Sale, but will be payable as set forth in Section 3(c)(iv) below. If the purchase price in the Notice of Sale includes consideration other than cash, the cash equivalent value of the non-cash consideration will be as previously determined by the Board in good faith, which determination will be binding upon the Company, the Preferred Shareholders and the Selling Shareholder, absent fraud or error.
 
(iv) Payment. Payment of the purchase price for the Offered Shares purchased by the Preferred Shareholders shall be made within thirty (30) days following the date of the First Refusal Expiration Notice.  Payment of the purchase price will be made by wire transfer or check as directed by the Selling Shareholder.
 
(v) Rights of a Selling Shareholder.  If any Preferred Shareholder exercises its right of first refusal to purchase the Offered Shares, then, upon the date the notice of such exercise is given by such Preferred Shareholders, the Selling Shareholder’s rights as a holder of such Offered Shares shall be suspended until the Selling Shareholder receives payment for such Offered Shares from such Preferred Shareholder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and the Selling Shareholder will forthwith cause all certificate(s) evidencing such Offered Shares to be surrendered to the Company for transfer to such Preferred Shareholder.
 
(vi) Application of Co-Sale Right.  In the event that the Preferred Shareholders have not elected to purchase any or all of the Offered Shares, then the sale of the remaining Offered Shares will become subject to the co-sale right of the Preferred Shareholders as set forth in Section 3(d) below.
 
(d) Co-Sale Right.  To the extent that the Preferred Shareholders have not exercised their right of first refusal with respect to any or all the Offered Shares, then each Preferred Shareholder shall have the right to exercise its co-sale right hereunder.

(f) Right to Transfer. To the extent the Preferred Shareholders do not elect to purchase, or to participate in the sale of, the Offered Shares subject to the Notice of Sale, the Selling Shareholder shall have the right, for ninety (90) days following delivery of the First Refusal Expiration Notice, undertake a transfer of the Offered Shares covered by the Notice of Sale and not elected to be purchased by the Preferred Shareholders, which in each case shall be on the same terms and conditions as those described in the Notice of Sale.  Any proposed transfer on terms and conditions which are materially different from those described in the Notice of Sale, as well as any subsequent proposed transfer of any Common Shares held directly or indirectly by the Selling Shareholder (including without limitation any Common Shares held directly or indirectly by the Selling Shareholder which are proposed to be sold to the Purchaser in the event the Purchaser elects to purchase more than the Co-Sale Offered Shares), shall again be subject to the right of first refusal and the co-sale right of the Preferred Shareholders and shall require compliance by the Selling Shareholder with the procedures described in Section 3.

(ii) During the Non-compete Period, such Covenanter shall not, directly or indirectly through another entity, (A) induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to leave the employ of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or in any way interfere with the relationship between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any of its employees, (B) hire any person who was an employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries within one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the time such employee is hired by such covenanter or such entity, (C) induce or attempt to induce any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, franchisee, lessor or other business relation of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to cease or refrain from doing business with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, franchisee or other business relation and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, making any negative statements or communications about the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) or (D) directly or indirectly acquire or attempt to acquire an interest in any Competing Business or any business with which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has entertained discussions or has requested and received information relating to the acquisition of such business by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (regardless of whether such business is a Competing Business); provided that none of the foregoing shall apply with respect to or limit any Covenanter in the performance of his or her duties as an executive or employee of the Company or any Subsidiary thereof.
 
(b) The Investor and each of the Covenanters agree that the covenants set forth in this Section 4 are reasonable with respect to period, geographical area and scope.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4 to the contrary, if at any time, in any arbitral proceeding, any of the restrictions stated in this Section 4 are found pursuant to Section 7(f) to be unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable under circumstances then existing, each Covenanter agrees that the period, scope and/or geographical area, as the case may be, shall be reduced to the extent necessary to enable the arbitral tribunal to enforce the restrictions to the extent such provisions are allowable under Law, giving effect to the agreement and intent of the Parties that the restrictions contained herein shall be effective to the fullest extent permissible.  Each of the Covenanters acknowledges and agrees that monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy for any breach or threatened breach of the provisions of this Section 4 and that, in such event, the Investor and/or its respective successors or assigns shall, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in their favor, be entitled to specific performance, injunctive and/or other relief from any arbitral tribunal of competent jurisdiction in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions of this Section 4 (including the extension of the Non-compete Period applicable to such Covenanter by a period equal to the length of the arbitral proceedings necessary to stop such violation); provided that such Covenanter is found to have been in violation of the provisions of this Section 4.  Any injunction shall be available without the posting of any bond or other security.  In the event of an alleged breach or violation by any Covenanter of any of the provisions of this Section 4, the Non-compete Period will be tolled for such Covenanter until such alleged breach or violation is resolved if such Covenanter is found to have not violated the provisions of this Section 4, then the Non-compete Period will not be deemed to have been tolled.  Each Covenanter agrees that the restrictions contained in this Section 4 are reasonable in all respects and are necessary to protect the goodwill of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries and are an integral part of the Purchase Price to be paid under the Preferred Shares Purchase Agreement.

BCT Retail and Baicaotang Property Management do not have social security registration certificates; however, those companies pay to social security through BCT Medicine while some employees of the chain stores receive social security from BCT Retail and submit the payments themselves. Although the local government doesn’t require Hefeng to apply for a social security registration certificate, Hefeng has nevertheless fully submitted the employee’s social security. Liuzhou City labor and social security bureau issued Labor and Social Security Supervision Inspection Handbook of June 25, 2008 showing BCT Medicine has violated social security regulations in the past three years, but in fact the regulator stamped its seal on the wrong place on the document; there has been no violation in the past three years.
