China Subfranchise 3-16-00

RESTATED CENTURY 21^® SUBFRANCHISE AGREEMENT

This Agreement is made as of the 22^nd day of March, 2000, by and between Cendant Global Services B.V., a private company with limited liability, organized under the laws of The Netherlands, with its corporate seat in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, and having its principal place of business at Officia I, De Boelelaan 7, 1083 H.J. Amsterdam, The Netherlands (“GLOBAL” or “Franchisor”) and IFM Company Ltd., a private company with limited liability, organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands, having its principal place of business at 305/333 Sylvan Avenue, Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey U.S.A. 07632 (“Subfranchisor”).

RECITALS

A. The parties intend by this Agreement to supercede, replace and restate the Century 21 Shanghai Subfranchise Agreement of March 31, 1998 between HFS Global Services B.V., predecessor of GLOBAL, and CTC Shanghai, Ltd., predecessor of Subfranchisor pursuant to a series of assignments.

B. Century 21 Real Estate Corporation (“CENTURY 21”) has developed a plan for the establishment, development and operation of real estate brokerage offices, and has devised proprietary policies, procedures and sales and management techniques designed to enable such offices to compete with larger real estate brokerage chains.

C. In order to advertise its trade name and trademarks and facilitate the merchandising techniques utilized thereunder, CENTURY 21 has designed and developed standardized signs, making use of a logo type insignia, business cards, stationery, business forms, office procedure manuals, centralized advertising programs, sales training programs and management and control systems for franchised real estate brokerage offices.

D. CENTURY 21 has developed a standard franchise agreement, sales tools and brochures, along with real estate products, programs and services, and a plan for the sublicense of franchises to real estate brokers (which proprietary plan, policies, procedures, merchandising techniques, manuals, forms, advertising and marketing programs, together with certain “CENTURY 21” marks, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “CENTURY 21 System”). CENTURY 21 is the registered proprietor of all right, title and interest in the “CENTURY 21 Marks” (as defined in Subparagraph 1A of this Agreement) and the intellectual property rights associated with all aspects and elements of the CENTURY 21 System.

E. CENTURY 21 has granted a license to Cendant Global Services, Inc. an Arizona corporation with its principal place of business in Phoenix, Arizona (“GSI”), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cendant Corporation, and CENTURY 21 has authorized GSI to permit its wholly-owned subsidiary, GLOBAL, to further sublicense the right to use the CENTURY 21 Marks and CENTURY 21 System to grant international subfranchising and other rights and services and obligations associated therewith, which GSI has done and which license GLOBAL has accepted.

1

F. Subfranchisor desires to obtain from GLOBAL a license granting the right to use said plans, manuals, systems and forms, and the exclusive right to itself sublicense and/or to sublicense other independent (“unrelated”) and qualified parties in which neither Subfranchisor nor any of its subsidiaries or affiliates holds more than a thirty percent (30%) ownership interest (“Territorial Subfranchisors”) to sublicense, franchises of the type granted by CENTURY 21 to reputable real estate brokers (“Franchisees”) in the territory described in Paragraph 2 hereof (the “Territory”). GLOBAL presently believes that said “CENTURY 21 System” is applicable to the real estate market within the Territory after appropriate allowance is made for local differences in language and commercial practice.

G. Mr. Donald Zhang, hereinafter referred to as “Guarantor”, has requested GLOBAL to grant to Subfranchisor the subfranchise provided for herein and to execute this Agreement. In consideration of GLOBAL’s compliance with that request, Guarantor has agreed to guarantee to GLOBAL the performance of all the obligations of Subfranchisor under this Agreement upon the terms and conditions set out in the Guarantee and Indemnification, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 1 and incorporated herein by reference (the “Guarantee and Indemnification”).

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises, and for other good and valuable consideration, the delivery, receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged; and further, in accordance with and pursuant to all terms, conditions, covenants, agreements, representations and warranties contained herein, the parties hereby mutually agree as follows:

1. GRANT OF LICENSE TO SUBFRANCHISOR.

A. Initial Franchise Fee and License. For and in consideration of the execution of this Agreement and the payment of an initial franchise fee of Three Million U.S. Dollars (U.S.$3,000,000) by Subfranchisor to GLOBAL, which initial franchise fee shall be non-refundable and deemed fully earned by GLOBAL upon execution of this Agreement, GLOBAL grants to Subfranchisor the exclusive right to sublicense the CENTURY 21 marks as defined below, and the CENTURY 21 System to Franchisees in the Territory, and/or to Territorial Subfranchisors in one or more of the provinces, municipalities or geographic areas (“Geographic Areas”) comprising the Territory, on the terms and conditions set forth herein. Franchisees and Territorial Subfranchisors shall be required to be real estate brokers. As used in this Agreement, the term “real estate brokers” shall mean: - individuals licensed to act as real estate brokers; and individuals trained and/or experienced in the sale of real estate who are not licensed real estate brokers; and business entities which employ at least one individual trained and/or experienced in the sale of real estate who is not a licensed real

2

estate broker, or Franchisees who are not licensed real estate brokers; provided, however, that such individuals, entities and Franchisees become licensed as soon as required under the applicable laws in the Territory providing for the licensing of real estate brokers. For purposes of this Agreement, “CENTURY 21 Marks” or “Marks” means the trade names, trademarks and service marks, whether in English or Chinese or any other language, including the name “CENTURY 21”, which have been registered in the Peoples Republic of China (“PRC” or “Territory”), or for which registration has been applied in the PRC, together with the other slogans, logos or other indicia of the CENTURY 21 System (“U.S. Registrations”) which have not been registered in the Territory, to the extent such U.S. Registrations do not infringe the rights of third parties in the Territory, all as set forth in Exhibit 2, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, as may be amended from time to time by GLOBAL. Subfranchisor shall pay the initial franchise fee in the amount of Three Million U.S. Dollars (U.S.$3,000,000) as follows:

(i) Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S. $500,000) upon execution of this Agreement; plus

(ii) Two Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S. $2,500,000) payable in the amount of One Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S. $1,500,000) on or before September 30, 2000 plus One Million U.S. Dollars (U.S. $1,000,000) on or before September 30, 2001.

(iii) Such payments shall be evidenced by, and be on the terms and conditions set forth in the promissory note from Subfranchisor in favor of GLOBAL, attached hereto as Exhibit 3 and incorporated herein by reference.

(a) Such promissory note may, at Subfranchisor’s option, be paid on or before the respective due dates by delivery of cash or a confirmed, irrevocable Letter of Credit in the amount of One Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S. $1,500,000) and/or One Million U.S. Dollars (U.S. $1,000,000), as the case may be, in a form and from a U.S. bank or other financial institution reasonably acceptable to GLOBAL. A specimen form of Letter of Credit approved by GLOBAL is attached hereto as Exhibit 3A and incorporated herein by reference.

(b) Subfranchisor shall deliver the executed promissory note to GLOBAL on or before the date of execution or effective date of this Agreement, whichever is earlier.

(c) In the event Subfranchisor elects to pay/redeem its promissory note obligations by way of irrevocable Letter of Credit, as contemplated under Subparagraph 1A (iii) (a) above, such Letter of Credit shall be delivered on or before the due date of the promissory note payment(s) in the same manner as a cash payment would be due. If Subfranchisor complies with such Letter of Credit delivery obligation on or before the due date, the promissory note due date(s) with respect to which the payment was due, will be automatically extended, without interest, for one (1) year, on which date full payment in cash will be required, without compromise or exception.

3

B. Ownership and Use of CENTURY 21 System and Marks.

(i) GLOBAL is not aware and has no knowledge or reason to believe that there exist any marks which would constitute a conflict or infringement either of or by the Marks registered by GLOBAL in the Territory. Nonetheless, GLOBAL cannot guarantee that there is not a business operating somewhere in the Territory using the name CENTURY 21 or the CENTURY 21 Marks or a substantially similar name or marks, which business may have the right to continue such use. GLOBAL strongly recommends that Subfranchisor initiate trademark searches of the applicable public and other records as regards the Marks registered in the Territory, prior to commencing business in the Territory. Upon delivery to GLOBAL of an English-version copy of the results of any such trademark searches, along with proper documentation of the costs associated therewith, GLOBAL will reimburse to Subfranchisor an amount not to exceed Five Hundred U.S. Dollars (U.S. $500.00) for the total cost of such searches. In the event Subfranchisor shall be legally enjoined or restrained from operating under the mark, name and style of “CENTURY 21” in a Geographic Area of the Territory, as the result of any final order entered by a court of competent jurisdiction:

(a) GLOBAL may, if it so decides in its sole discretion and at its sole expense, undertake to resolve any such conflict or infringement situation in any affected Geographic Area by negotiation of a co-existence agreement or such other settlement to which GLOBAL is agreeable.

(b) Notwithstanding any actions taken by GLOBAL to resolve any such conflict, until such time as GLOBAL has delivered to Subfranchisor reasonably acceptable written evidence of a reasonably satisfactory co-existence arrangement or other settlement of the conflict, Subfranchisor may, at its sole option, as its sole and exclusive remedy against GLOBAL under this Subparagraph 1B(i), terminate this Agreement as to any such Geographic Area so affected, and receive a prorata refund of the total initial franchise fee of Four Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S. $4,500,000) (“Total Initial Franchise Fee”) for the entire Territory, as expanded, in an amount equal to such Total Initial Franchise Fee multiplied by the product of the following two fractions: (1) the fraction of which the numerator is the population of the affected Geographic Area as stated in the then current edition of the Rand McNally World Atlas (the “Atlas”), and the denominator is the total population of the entire Territory as stated in the Atlas; and (2) the fraction of which the numerator is the difference between 300 and the number of full or partial months during which the CENTURY 21 Marks were used by Subfranchisor in its operations in the affected Geographic Area prior to (or after) being enjoined, and the denominator is 300.

4

(c) If Subfranchisor elects to terminate this Agreement as to an affected Geographic Area or Areas pursuant to the terms of this Subparagraph 1B, then the requirements of Subparagraphs 14B and 14C, obligating Subfranchisor to assign all CENTURY 21 Real Estate Franchise Agreements and/or Territorial Subfranchise Agreements to GLOBAL and to pay liquidated damages shall not be applicable, and Subfranchisor shall be free to continue dealing with its Territorial Subfranchisors and Franchisees in the Territory; provided, however, that Subfranchisor and all of its Territorial Subfranchisors and Franchisees in the affected Geographic Area(s) shall immediately cease use of the CENTURY 21 Marks and System and otherwise comply with all of the provisions of Subparagraph 14A.

(ii) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to assure that the U.S. Registrations will be available for use in the Territory. Subfranchisor acknowledges and agrees that any and all such marks, slogans and other indicia of the CENTURY 21 System may be used by Subfranchisor at its sole risk and expense. Should Subfranchisor desire to register any such U.S. Registrations in the Territory (in addition to those CENTURY 21 Marks already registered in the Territory), Subfranchisor shall so notify GLOBAL; provided, however, that all such U.S. Registrations shall be registered in the Territory in the name of GLOBAL (or CENTURY 21), at the direction and under the supervision of GLOBAL and its attorneys, and at the sole expense of Subfranchisor. GLOBAL may require that Subfranchisor deposit with GLOBAL in advance an amount equal to the estimated cost of any such registrations. Subfranchisor shall indemnify and hold harmless GLOBAL and CENTURY 21 from and against any and all claims, actions, proceedings, damages and losses arising out of or in connection with the registration and/or use or sublicense of the U.S. Registrations in the Territory.

(iii) Except as expressly authorized herein, nothing herein contained shall be construed as authorizing or permitting Subfranchisor to use and/or sublicense the CENTURY 21 System and/or the CENTURY 21 Marks outside the Territory or for any purpose other than:

(a) the sublicense to Territorial Subfranchisors upon substantially the same terms as CENTURY 21 subfranchises are then being sublicensed by CENTURY 21 to international subfranchisors, subject to the prior approval by GLOBAL of material variations to the CENTURY 21 International Subfranchise Agreement (as described in Subparagraph 5B of this Agreement); or

(b) the sublicense of franchises to reputable real estate brokers upon substantially the same terms as such franchises are sublicensed by CENTURY 21 in the United States of America (“United States”, “U.S.A.” or “U.S.”), with due allowances for the differences in commercial practice, law, language, and custom within the Territory, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and for the purpose of servicing those franchises.

(iv) It is expressly agreed that the ownership of all right, title and interest in and to said CENTURY 21 System and CENTURY 21 Marks is and shall remain vested solely in GLOBAL (and/or CENTURY 21), and all usage thereof by Subfranchisor and the Territorial Subfranchisors and its or their Franchisees, and any goodwill established thereby, shall inure to the exclusive

5

benefit of GLOBAL (and/or CENTURY 21) (other than relative to the specific license rights and benefits to which Subfranchisor is entitled pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement). Subfranchisor acknowledges that neither Subfranchisor nor the Territorial Subfranchisors nor the Franchisees have any, nor will they acquire any, proprietary interest whatsoever in the CENTURY 21 Marks, and that the rights of Subfranchisor, Territorial Subfranchisors and the Franchisees to use the CENTURY 21 Marks are derived solely from this Agreement and are limited to the exercise of the rights granted pursuant to and in compliance with this Agreement. Subfranchisor acknowledges that upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, no monetary value shall be attributable to any goodwill associated with the use of the CENTURY 21 Marks by Subfranchisor, Territorial Subfranchisors or the Franchisees.

(v) Subfranchisor hereby agrees to use and to use its best efforts to cause each of its Territorial Subfranchisors and its or their Franchisees to use, each of the CENTURY 21 Marks in full compliance with the rules prescribed from time to time by GLOBAL. All rules promulgated by GLOBAL concerning use of the CENTURY 21 Marks, shall be uniformly applied to all CENTURY 21 international subfranchisors, shall be introduced only after reasonable notice to such subfranchisors and may not adversely affect the operations of the business of the CENTURY 21 international subfranchisors. Subfranchisor will take all commercially reasonable steps to, and shall use its best efforts to cause its Territorial Subfranchisors and its or their Franchisees to, preserve the goodwill and prestige of the CENTURY 21 Marks and shall execute and shall cause the Territorial Subfranchisors and its or their Franchisees to execute any and all instruments and documents, including but not limited to, a trademark and service mark license agreement or Registered User Agreement, a specimen form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4 and incorporated herein by reference, which in the opinion of GLOBAL’s counsel are necessary or advisable to protect and maintain the CENTURY 21 Marks. Subfranchisor shall, if reasonably deemed necessary by GLOBAL’s counsel, at Subfranchisor’s sole expense, enter into trademark and service mark license agreements contemporaneously with each franchise granted pursuant to this Agreement, and file said trademark and service mark license agreements with appropriate governmental authorities within the Territory. If and to the extent that GLOBAL determines that sublicensing of the CENTURY 21 Marks presents risks of diminution or loss of rights to the CENTURY 21 Marks under the legal requirements in effect in the Territory, GLOBAL shall have the right to enter into a direct trademark license agreement with each Franchisee or, pursuant to a power of attorney in form and substance acceptable to GLOBAL, authorize Subfranchisor or the Territorial Subfranchisors to enter into such agreement on GLOBAL’s behalf. In such event, Subfranchisor or the Territorial Subfranchisors shall amend the CENTURY 21 Real Estate Franchise Agreements that it enters into with Franchisees accordingly to incorporate any such trademark license agreement and to provide for cross-default provisions in both agreements.

(vi) The materials and information now and hereafter provided or revealed to Subfranchisor under and/or pursuant to this Agreement are revealed in confidence, and Subfranchisor agrees that upon the expiration, termination or assignment of this Subfranchise Agreement for any reason, all manuals, bulletins, instruction sheets, forms, marks, designs and other materials

6

furnished to or created by Subfranchisor under and/or pursuant to this Agreement which are then in Subfranchisor’s possession, shall be turned over to GLOBAL for its use and/or distribution and/or destruction or turned over to the assignee designated by GLOBAL, and Subfranchisor shall immediately cease using the CENTURY 21 System and Marks.

C. Changes By GLOBAL. It is understood that CENTURY 21 is constantly working to improve upon the CENTURY 21 System. GLOBAL reserves the right to make changes from time to time in the CENTURY 21 System and CENTURY 21 Marks to be used by Subfranchisor and Territorial Subfranchisors and its or their Franchisees. Subfranchisor acknowledges that any such changes may be necessary in order to: preserve and enhance the image of the CENTURY 21 System; accommodate changing customer demands; and assure the continuing efficiency of the Franchisees generally. Such changes may include, without limitation: the adoption and use of new or modified CENTURY 21 Marks; new products and services; and new or modified techniques, programs, publications and tools relating to the sale, promotion and marketing of such services and products relative to the real estate brokerage industry and “Collateral Businesses” (as defined in Subparagraph 4 E). Such changes are contemplated by the parties as part of the CENTURY 21 System. Subfranchisor, at its sole cost, agrees to accept, adopt, implement, use and display all such changes within a reasonable time, in no event to exceed six (6) months after receipt of notice of each such change from GLOBAL, provided, however, that such changes are implemented uniformly throughout the CENTURY 21 International Franchise System.

D. Approval of Advertising Materials. GLOBAL reserves the right to approve in advance the form, content and general appearance of any literature, franchise agreements, signs or other materials or things on which a CENTURY 21 name or mark is used, and Subfranchisor agrees not to use such names or marks without first obtaining said approval in writing from an authorized officer or employee of GLOBAL. Upon GLOBAL’s request, Subfranchisor agrees to submit to GLOBAL for its approval, true and accurate English-language translations of the modified portions of all such literature, franchise agreements (as modified by Subfranchisor or the Territorial Subfranchisors), signs and other materials. GLOBAL agrees not to withhold or delay its consent unreasonably, and in granting or withholding consent will take into consideration the commercial practices, laws and customs within the Territory. Any use of the CENTURY 21 Marks by Subfranchisor or the Territorial Subfranchisors or its or their Franchisees shall inure to the benefit of GLOBAL (and/or CENTURY 21) (other than relative to the specific license rights and benefits to which Subfranchisor is entitled pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement). All advertising, public relations and promotions by Subfranchisor shall be completely factual and shall conform to the highest legal and ethical standards and to the policies prescribed from time to time by GLOBAL. Except with respect to liability which arises solely from the misdeeds or malfeasance of employees or agents of GLOBAL, GLOBAL shall not be obligated to defend or hold harmless Subfranchisor or the Territorial Subfranchisors against any suit, action, claim, demand or damage based on unfair or misleading trade practice resulting from the exercise or use of any right or privilege granted to Subfranchisor by this Agreement.

7

E. System of Approved Suppliers. It is anticipated that due to differences between the laws, languages and business practices in the United States and the Territory, it will be necessary for Subfranchisor to have its supplies and printed materials produced locally. Subfranchisor agrees to arrange for its own suppliers in the Territory and agrees to bear all expenses of adapting CENTURY 21 materials for use (including such translations as are necessary or appropriate) in the Territory. All changes to CENTURY 21 materials, as well as newly developed or translated materials, shall require the prior written approval of GLOBAL, which shall not be withheld or delayed unreasonably.

2. TERRITORY. The exclusive Territory licensed to Subfranchisor hereunder shall consist of the Peoples Republic of China, excluding Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, as constituted on the date of this Agreement. The exclusive Territory shall not include any province, city, possession, territory, colony, protectorate, exterior department, trust or related geographic area of the aforesaid country located outside the boundaries of the Territory.

3. TERM.

A. Initial Term. The license and subfranchise hereby granted shall be for a term of twenty-five (25) years from the date hereof, unless sooner terminated as hereinafter provided.

B. Perpetual Term. Subfranchisor shall have the right and option at any time prior to March 31, 2003 to renew the term of this Agreement in perpetuity without payment of the renewal fee under Subparagraph 3C (ii) of this Agreement, subject to all of the following:

(i) Subfranchisor shall deliver to GLOBAL written notice of its election to so extend prior to March 31, 2003; and

(ii) Subfranchisor shall pay to GLOBAL at the time of delivery of such notice, the perpetual term option price of One Million Three Hundred Fifty Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S. $1,350,000).

C. Renewal. Upon the expiration of the initial term of this Agreement or the term of any subsequent renewal of this Agreement, Subfranchisor shall have the option to renew this Agreement for an additional twenty-five (25) year term, subject to all of the following:

(i) Subfranchisor shall deliver to GLOBAL written notice of Subfranchisor’s intent to renew not more than 240 days and not less than 90 days prior to the expiration date of the term under which Subfranchisor is then-operating; and

8

(ii) Unless Subfranchisor has perfected its perpetuity rights under Subparagraph 3B of this Agreement, Subfranchisor shall pay a renewal fee to GLOBAL at the time Subfranchisor delivers its notice of intent to renew, in an amount equal to Four Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S. $4,500,000), adjusted for inflation (or deflation, as the case may be) from the date of execution of this Agreement (or subsequent renewal date, as the case may be) by increasing (or decreasing in the event of deflation) such renewal fee each year in proportion to the increase in the U.S. Department of Labor Consumer Price Index (United States City Average 1982-1984=100) between the date of execution of this Agreement and the last day of the year prior to expiration. In the event that said Index is not available for a given year, GLOBAL shall designate a comparable means for determining the appropriate adjustment; and,

(iii) At the time Subfranchisor delivers notice of its intent to renew, Subfranchisor shall not be in material default of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Subfranchisor shall not be deemed in material default of any provision hereunder if Subfranchisor is diligently pursuing a remedy of such breach, and such breach is one that can be remedied by the actions of Subfranchisor.

D. Continuation After Expiration. If Subfranchisor continues to operate after the end of any term hereof without exercising an option to renew, Subfranchisor shall be deemed to be operating on a month-to-month basis under the terms of this Agreement. However, in such event, the Agreement may be terminated at any time, by either party upon sixty (60) days written notice to the other.

4. SERVICE FEE.

A. Initial Franchise Fee Royalty and Continuing Service Fee. For the license and subfranchise hereby granted, in addition to the initial franchise fee set forth in Paragraph 1, Subfranchisor agrees to pay to GLOBAL: a royalty in an amount equal to fifteen percent (15%) of initial franchise fees received from Territorial Subfranchisors; and a quarterly service fee equal to sixteen and six-tenths percent (16.6%) of Subfranchisor’s “total gross receipts” (as defined herein) from the Franchisees, if any; and thirty percent (30%) of Subfranchisor’s “total gross receipts” from the Territorial Subfranchisors, if any. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Subfranchisor is successful in selling and developing a system of bona fide operating CENTURY 21 franchised offices in the Territory (both the direct Franchisees of Subfranchisor, if any, and the Franchisees of the Territorial Subfranchisors) in excess of 150 offices on or before June 30, 2001, then and in such event, the quarterly service fees thereafter payable to GLOBAL (commencing with the month after such threshold is achieved) shall be reduced from 16.6% to twelve percent (12%) of Subfranchisor’s “total gross receipts from the Franchisees. If Subfranchisor fails to meet this threshold on or before June 30, 2001, the continuing quarterly service fee shall continue for the balance of the term of this Agreement (and any renewal thereof) at 16.6% of Subfranchisor’s “total gross receipts” from the Franchisees. For purposes of calculating the quarterly service fee, the term “total gross receipts” shall be defined as revenue received by Subfranchisor from the following sources:

(i) gross revenue from all Franchisees in the Territory including, but not necessarily limited to, service fees, initial franchise fees and fees from the transfer, renewal or extension, or termination (including liquidated damages) of franchise agreements; and

9

(ii) gross revenue from all Territorial Subfranchisors, specifically excluding initial franchise fees paid by the Territorial Subfranchisors, but including, and not necessarily limited to, service fees and fees from the transfer, renewal or extension, or termination (including liquidated damages) of territorial subfranchise agreements; and

(iii) gross revenue from any other business or commercial activity in which the CENTURY 21 Marks are used, except to the extent such revenues have already been subject to service fees payable to GLOBAL in accordance with another agreement between GLOBAL and Subfranchisor; and provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be construed to permit Subfranchisor or Territorial Subfranchisors or Franchisees to use the CENTURY 21 Marks or any derivation thereof, in a manner not expressly authorized by this Agreement; and

(iv) gross revenue from “Collateral Business(es)” (as hereafter defined) established by Subfranchisor particularly for the sale of goods or services to or through its Franchisees; provided however, that nothing contained herein shall be construed to permit Subfranchisor to use the CENTURY 21 Marks or any derivation thereof, in any Collateral Business, without the prior written consent of GLOBAL.

B. Exclusions From Service Fees. The term “total gross receipts” shall not be construed to include:

(i) Franchisees’ contributions to the “National Marketing and Advertising Fund” (as defined in Paragraph 8 of this Agreement); or

(ii) the proceeds of any sale by Subfranchisor or Territorial Subfranchisors of real estate held by it or them for investment or rental income derived therefrom prior to sale of such investment real estate. The expression “real estate held by it for investment” shall include real estate acquired by Subfranchisor or Territorial Subfranchisors for development (including subdivision) and/or immediate or medium term resale. In any event, if Subfranchisor or Territorial Subfranchisors utilize the CENTURY 21 Marks in connection with the brokerage or sale of the real estate, then all income derived from said brokerage activities shall be subject to the quarterly service fee as set forth in this Paragraph 4.

C. Minimum Annual Continuing Service Fee.

(i) Subfranchisor agrees to pay to GLOBAL for each one year period of the Agreement commencing on the first day of the eighth month following the effective date of this Agreement, for each one year period during the term of this Agreement (the “Minimum Service Fee Year”), the minimum continuing service fee set forth in Exhibit 5 attached hereto and incorporated herein by

10

reference (“Minimum Service Fee”). In the event of termination or expiration of this Agreement, the Minimum Service Fee for the year of such termination or expiration shall be prorated based upon the number of months and portions thereof of the Minimum Service Fee Year which elapsed prior to termination or expiration of the term of this Agreement.

(ii) In the event that the Minimum Service Fee becomes payable hereunder for a Minimum Service Fee Year, the difference between the Minimum Service Fee and the total quarterly service fees paid by Subfranchisor during the Minimum Service Fee Year, shall be paid to GLOBAL on or before the thirtieth (30th) day of the calendar month following the end of the Minimum Service Fee Year.

D. Payment of Service Fees.

(i) To the extent permitted by law, service fees and royalties on initial franchise fees shall be paid by Subfranchisor to GLOBAL at least quarterly on or before the twentieth (20th) day of the calendar month following the calendar quarter in which the revenue or receipts were received by Subfranchisor; provided, however, that such due date shall be extended automatically for each quarterly payment so long as Subfranchisor: (a) submits to the appropriate foreign exchange commission/authority on or before the tenth (10^th) day of each quarterly payment due date a request for approval of the service fee and royalty payments; and (b) timely delivers to GLOBAL a copy of such request for approval; and (c) pursues such approval diligently in good faith thereafter; and (d) pays the service fees and royalties to GLOBAL within seven (7) business days after receipt by Subfranchisor of such approval (the “Extended Due Date”) from the respective foreign exchange commission/authority. All payments payable by Subfranchisor to GLOBAL under this Agreement shall be paid in U.S. Dollars to GLOBAL, unless GLOBAL, at its election, permits or directs payment in another currency, at the exchange rate required to purchase U.S. Dollars or such other currency prevailing on the date paid, if on or before the date on which remittance is due, or, if paid after the due date of the twentieth, or the Extended Due Date, as the case may be, then at the exchange rate prevailing on the due date, or the Extended Due Date, as the case may be, or at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of actual remittance, whichever exchange rate is more favorable to GLOBAL, at the People’s Bank of China (the “Exchange Rate”). Subfranchisor shall use its best efforts to assure that GLOBAL will be paid in U.S. Dollars. If GLOBAL directs payment in another currency, the costs of exchange from the currency of the Territory to the other currency in excess of the costs to convert Territory currency to U.S. Dollars may be deducted from the payment, provided that reasonable supporting documentation of such costs is provided to GLOBAL with the payment. If for any reason an amount is received in a currency other than U.S. Dollars without GLOBAL’s direction or consent, Subfranchisor’s obligations under this Agreement shall be discharged only to the extent that GLOBAL may purchase U.S. Dollars with such other currency in accordance with normal banking procedures upon receipt of such amount. If the amount in U.S. Dollars which may be so purchased, after deducting any costs of

11

exchange and any other related costs, is less than the relevant sum payable under this Agreement, Subfranchisor shall immediately pay GLOBAL the shortfall. All payments shall be made to GLOBAL at GLOBAL’s offices in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, or as otherwise specified in writing by GLOBAL, and accompanied by a written report setting forth the amount of revenue received from each Franchisee and/or Territorial Subfranchisor, as the case may be, documentation of the Exchange Rate, and other material financial information reasonably necessary to document the calculation of the quarterly service fees and royalties. In addition, Subfranchisor shall deliver to GLOBAL on or before the twentieth (20^th) day of each month, a monthly report setting forth the amount of revenue received from each Franchisee and Territorial Subfranchisor, and such other material financial information reasonably necessary to document the service fees and royalties payable by Subfranchisor for each such month as and when owing on the quarterly payment due date.

(ii) In the event that any governmental authority having jurisdiction in the Territory prohibits the conversion of currency into U.S. Dollars or the transfer of funds or currency to places outside of the Territory, GLOBAL, in its sole discretion shall have: (a) the option to require that Subfranchisor deposit all or any portion of the payments required under this Agreement in U.S. Dollars or such other currency to a designated account in any jurisdiction in the name of GLOBAL as directed by GLOBAL and that payment of such accumulated amounts be made to GLOBAL as soon as possible after any such currency restriction is no longer in effect; and (b) the right to terminate this Agreement, if such restrictions remain in effect for more than twelve consecutive months.

(iii) Subfranchisor shall undertake to use its best efforts to obtain and maintain in full force and effect all governmental authorizations and approvals and to obtain or effect any new or additional governmental authorizations or approvals, as may be required or advisable in respect of Subfranchisor’s obligation to make payments in U.S. Dollars as required hereunder. In the event Subfranchisor cannot make payment in U.S. Dollars because any such authorization or approval is not available under applicable law or regulations or has been withdrawn for reasons other than the misconduct of GLOBAL, GLOBAL shall have the right in its sole discretion to: (a) require Subfranchisor to pay U.S. Dollar amounts due through account(s) maintained by Subfranchisor in a country from which U.S. Dollar payments may be made; or (b) allow Subfranchisor to suspend performance of its obligation to make payment in U.S. Dollars hereunder until such authorization or approval becomes available or is reinstated; provided, however, that during such suspension period (X) Subfranchisor shall pay all amounts due and owing to GLOBAL under this Agreement in local currency to an account maintained by GLOBAL in the Territory and (Y) Subfranchisor may propose to GLOBAL countertrade transactions in respect of such local currency, which GLOBAL may accept or reject in its sole discretion. As soon as possible after such authorization or approval becomes available or is reinstated, Subfranchisor shall resume making payments in U.S. Dollars hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the suspension period referred to herein remains in effect for more than one (1) year, GLOBAL shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate this Agreement upon ninety (90) days written notice to Subfranchisor without penalty.

12

(iv) If payments due under this Agreement are subject to withholding or other income taxes under applicable legal requirements or U.S. laws, Subfranchisor shall withhold and pay over to the appropriate tax authorities on behalf of GLOBAL and promptly deliver to GLOBAL receipts from tax authorities for all taxes paid or withheld, in accordance with the requirements of Paragraph 19 of this Agreement. Subfranchisor shall use its reasonable commercial endeavors to take all steps required by GLOBAL to enable GLOBAL to obtain any tax credits, exemptions or refunds which may be due to GLOBAL with respect to any withholding or other taxes.

(v) If Subfranchisor shall be more than ten (10) days late with any payment or related report, as such payment or report becomes due and payable (or deliverable, in the case of a report) pursuant to the relevant provisions set forth herein, Subfranchisor agrees to pay to GLOBAL the additional sum of Five Hundred U.S. Dollars (U.S. $500.00) as a late charge, plus interest at ten percent (10%) per annum computed from the due date on the amount of the late payment, plus the amount of Exchange Rate loss, if any, attributable to such late payment, Subfranchisor shall pay any withholding tax due as a result of any interest accrued as a result of any delay in the payment of service fees by Subfranchisor as described in Subparagraph 4D or otherwise, and shall also pay such additional amount to GLOBAL as may be necessary in order that the actual amount received after such withholding on accrued interest shall equal the amount that would have been received if such withholding on accrued interest were not required.

E. Consent to Collateral Businesses. It is contemplated that Subfranchisor and/or the Territorial Subfranchisors may, with the prior written authorization of GLOBAL, enter newly established Collateral Businesses made possible by the grant of CENTURY 21 franchises, and that said businesses may be initiated through subsidiaries of Subfranchisor and/or the Territorial Subfranchisors. The term “Collateral Business(es)” shall include, without limitation, real estate inspection services, escrow services, appraisals, title insurance, property management, mortgage brokerage, mortgage lending, mortgage insurance, trust companies, household goods moving services, and/or the providing of any other goods or services to real estate brokers or their clients or customers, under or using the CENTURY 21 Marks. In granting or denying consent pursuant to this Subparagraph 4E, GLOBAL may impose reasonable requirements on Subfranchisor’s and/or the Territorial Subfranchisors’ Collateral Businesses and any subsidiary that may be formed for the purpose of carrying on any such Collateral Business, including, but not limited to, a requirement that any such subsidiary be bound by the terms of this Agreement. In the event subsidiaries are formed for the sole purpose of establishing and/or operating said Collateral Businesses, the total gross receipts of each such subsidiary shall be consolidated with the total gross receipts of Subfranchisor and/or the Territorial Subfranchisors, and transactions between Subfranchisor and/or the Territorial Subfranchisors and its or their such subsidiaries shall be disregarded for the purpose of determining the total gross receipts upon which service fees are to be paid.

13

F. Establishing Collateral Businesses. Subfranchisor agrees to act in good faith in making decisions whether or not to establish Collateral Businesses, and Subfranchisor promises and agrees not to refrain from establishing a new Collateral Business in order to avoid the obligation to pay the service fees, by permitting affiliates of Subfranchisor to conduct one or more of said Collateral Businesses selling goods or services to Franchisees or the customers of Franchisees. Subfranchisor shall not engage in any other collateral business (including, without limitation, newly created businesses developed particularly for the sale of goods or services to or through its Franchisees, without the prior written consent of GLOBAL. GLOBAL agrees that it will not withhold or delay its consent unreasonably, but may impose reasonable conditions.

G. GLOBAL’S AND CENTURY 21’s Right To Establish Collateral Businesses. In the event GLOBAL grants its written consent, pursuant to Subparagraph 4E, for Subfranchisor and/or the Territorial Subfranchisors to establish a Collateral Business, it shall not charge Subfranchisor any additional initial franchise fee or other related fee for the grant of said right; however, Subfranchisor shall pay to GLOBAL the quarterly service fee on the total gross receipts of said Collateral Business(es) of Subfranchisor and/or the Territorial Subfranchisors pursuant to the terms of this Paragraph 4. GLOBAL shall not grant a license to any other person or entity which permits the operation of a newly established Collateral Business under the CENTURY 21 Marks within the Territory, without first offering Subfranchisor a right of first refusal exercisable by Subfranchisor within seventy-five (75) days of receipt of notice of the terms and conditions of the proposed license, by commencing negotiations in good faith to finalize the license agreement on substantially the terms and conditions proposed, within such seventy-five (75) day notice period. If Subfranchisor is unable or unwilling to execute the proposed license agreement within the seventy-five (75) day notice period, despite good faith, diligent negotiations by both parties, the right of refusal set forth herein shall terminate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Subfranchisor acknowledges that GLOBAL and its parent and subsidiaries (including sister companies controlled by a common parent, other than real estate brokerage office franchisors, such as Coldwell Banker Real Estate Corporation and ERA Franchise Systems, Inc.) retain the right to concurrent use of the CENTURY 21 System and Marks (excluding the right to own or operate CENTURY 21 real estate brokerage franchises, or grant “CENTURY 21” franchises to real estate brokers) within the Territory, and that GLOBAL (and/or CENTURY 21) and/or its subsidiaries may establish and/or operate Collateral Businesses within the Territory. In the event GLOBAL (and/or CENTURY 21) and/or its subsidiaries elect to establish and/or operate a Collateral Business within the Territory, GLOBAL shall provide Subfranchisor not less than sixty (60) days written notice prior to establishing or entering any Collateral Business, and consult with Subfranchisor regarding its plans/intentions concerning the operation of such Collateral Business.

Subfranchisor shall take the necessary steps to produce at its own expense an appropriate disclosure document, registration, permit and/or license, including, without limitation, a license to sell real estate, as required by any present or future applicable franchise investment law, securities act, blue sky law, or any similar law regulating the sale of securities, franchises or real estate in the Territory, to grant real estate franchises in a form approved in advance, in writing, by GLOBAL. In the event Subfranchisor is unable to obtain the necessary registrations or permits that may be required by law, then GLOBAL may, at its sole option, terminate this Agreement. Subject only to variations approved in advance by GLOBAL in writing, Subfranchisor agrees to grant, and require and cause the Territorial Subfranchisors to grant, real estate brokerage franchises (the “Broker Franchise”) to real estate brokers upon the same terms and conditions as those franchises that are then being granted by CENTURY 21 in the United States (the “CENTURY 21 Standard”), at the time of the grant. A specimen form of the current U.S. CENTURY 21 Real Estate Franchise Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 8, and incorporated herein by reference (“CENTURY 21 Real Estate Franchise Agreement”). Subfranchisor shall modify, and shall require and cause the Territorial Subfranchisors to modify, the form of CENTURY 21 Real Estate Franchise Agreement to conform to the laws and commercial customs of the Territory, and Subfranchisor shall submit to GLOBAL for its approval, true and accurate English-language translations of the modified CENTURY 21 Real Estate Franchise Agreement.

Subfranchisor shall submit to GLOBAL for its approval, true and accurate English-language translations of its proposed modifications to the Broker Policy and Procedure Manual. GLOBAL will not unreasonably withhold its consent to Subfranchisor’s suggested modifications to the Broker Policy and Procedure Manual.

F. Regional Policy and Procedure Manual. GLOBAL has adopted, and reserves the right to change from time to time, a policy and procedure manual setting forth policies and procedures required to be followed by all CENTURY 21 Subfranchisors (“Regional Policy and Procedure Manual”), attached hereto as Appendix I and incorporated herein by reference. Subfranchisor agrees to comply with the Regional Policy and Procedure Manual as it may be revised in the reasonable discretion of GLOBAL from time to time, and to adhere, within a reasonable time after notification, to the provisions of such revisions and to such further revisions thereto as are made from time to time; provided that such revisions are applicable to all CENTURY 21 international subfranchisors generally. In addition, Subfranchisor will provide those services listed in Appendix I, to its Franchisees in the Territory. Subfranchisor acknowledges that the Regional Policy and Procedure Manual is intended to replace the “CENTURY 21 Standard” (insofar as it is intended to serve as a model for minimum service levels to be provided by CENTURY 21 subfranchisors), which is applicable to other CENTURY 21 subfranchisors of GLOBAL. Subfranchisor acknowledges that GLOBAL has the right to make reasonable

16

modifications to the Regional Policy and Procedure Manual in order to keep the CENTURY 21 System competitive, enhance the goodwill of the CENTURY 21 System, and respond to changes in the real estate marketplace; however, in all cases the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall take precedence over any conflicting provisions of the Regional Policy and Procedure Manual.

Subfranchisor shall not engage in any practices which would tend to give preference to or show commercial favoritism toward any one or more of its Franchisees over other similarly situated Franchisees.

H. CENTURY 21 Trade Name. Subfranchisor shall operate under the trade name “CENTURY 21 China” or such other trade name as may be approved in writing by GLOBAL. Subfranchisor shall cause Franchisees to use the CENTURY 21 Marks in combination with their office name, as described in the Broker Policy and Procedure Manual, to identify their CENTURY 21 franchises. Other than as set forth above, neither Subfranchisor nor any Territorial Subfranchisor nor the Franchisees shall register or incorporate the CENTURY 21 Name or any Mark, whether in English or Chinese or any other language, as part of any corporate or trade name or with any prefix, suffix or other modifying trademarks, logos, words, terms, designs or symbols, or in any modified form, or use any Mark in connection with the sale of any unauthorized product or service or in any other manner or for any purpose other than the sublicensing and servicing of real estate brokerage franchises to reputable licensed real estate brokers or as otherwise authorized under this Agreement or CENTURY 21 Real Estate Franchise Agreements approved by GLOBAL. Subfranchisor and the Franchisees shall display the Marks and give notices of trademark registrations in the manner prescribed in this Agreement and the CENTURY 21 Real Estate Franchise Agreements and obtain such licenses, permits and authorizations relating thereto as may be necessary or advisable under applicable legal requirements in effect in the Territory.

Subfranchisor agrees to implement, and require and cause Territorial Subfranchisors to implement at its or their sole cost, all reasonable innovations or changes in services to Franchisees developed or recommended by GLOBAL within a reasonable time, in no event to exceed six (6) months, after being informed of modifications or changes to the Regional Policy and Procedure Manual, provided that such modifications or changes do not unreasonably conflict with real estate brokerage practices in the Territory.

L. Books and Records; Audit. Subfranchisor agrees to maintain at all times at its principal office a central bookkeeping system which shall conform to generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied in the Territory, and to make Subfranchisor’s books and records open and available to GLOBAL for inspection and copying during normal business hours. In addition, Subfranchisor agrees to mail to GLOBAL within ninety (90) days after the end of Subfranchisor’s fiscal year, copies of its annual audited financial statements and such other financial reports as may from time to time be reasonably required by GLOBAL. GLOBAL’S right to inspect and copy Subfranchisor’s books and records under this Paragraph 5L shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement for a period of the (3) years.

As used herein, “Net Worth” shall mean the excess of total assets over total liabilities of Subfranchisor determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States (“GAAP”), and “Liquid Capital” shall mean cash, cash equivalents, investments and marketable securities traded regularly on a recognized market, and such other types of cash equivalents as are properly classified as cash equivalents under GAAP. Subfranchisor’s Net Worth and Liquid Capital share be calculated at the Exchange Rate specified in Subparagraph 4D(i) hereof. Subfranchisor shall achieve the minimum Net Worth and Capital Liquid

If Subfranchisor fails to cure such deficiency within such ninety (90) day cure period, then GLOBAL shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Subparagraph 13A hereof.

This Subparagraph 5N shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement.

O. Compliance With Laws. Subfranchisor agrees to comply with all applicable laws and regulations in the conduct of its business.

P. Interference With Franchise Relationships. Subfranchisor shall not cause nor seek to cause any prospective franchise to commit any wrongful termination of a franchise agreement between that prospective franchisee and competing real estate franchise organization.

Q. Indemnification and Minimum Insurance Coverage. Subfranchisor agrees to indemnify and hold GLOBAL and CENTURY 21 free and harmless from any liability, damages and expense (including but not limited to attorneys fees and court costs) in connection with any claim, action, proceeding or litigation that arises out of the operation of Subfranchisor’s business (including Collateral Businesses) and/or the operations or activities of its Franchisees or the Territorial Subfranchisors or its or their Franchisees or its or their respective agents or employees.

Subfranchisor agrees to notify GLOBAL promptly if it obtains actual knowledge of any person, firm or organization using the name “CENTURY 21” or a substantially similar name, or using trademarks, service marks, methods or procedures which may constitute an infringement upon the trade names, service marks, trademarks, copyrights or trade secrets of GLOBAL and/or CENTURY 21. This includes, but is not limited to, use of the CENTURY 21 System or Marks by former Franchisees of Subfranchisor whose franchises have been terminated.

(ii) Subfranchisor acknowledges that GLOBAL has the right to determine, in the good faith exercise of its reasonable discretion, whether to take action against uses by others that may constitute infringement of the CENTURY 21 Marks in the Territory, and to direct and control any suit, action, litigation or proceeding involving the CENTURY 21 Marks, including the terms and conditions of any settlement thereof, and the selection of legal counsel; provided, however that GLOBAL will consult Subfranchisor with regard to the choice of legal counsel required for any suit, action, litigation or proceeding instituted under this Subparagraph 5S.

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the right of GLOBAL to determine whether to institute legal action, with respect to any suit, action, litigation or proceeding against an infringing Territorial Subfranchisor or Franchisee or former Franchisee, Subfranchisor shall have the right to bring an action for breach of contract and to control such breach of contract action, and, in either case, Subfranchisor shall pay all legal fees and other expenses incident to such litigation or proceeding.

The parties acknowledge and agree that the aforementioned expenses are being allocated according to the percentage of the revenues associated with the use of the Marks that is retained by the Subfranchisor or GLOBAL. In the case of Territorial Subfranchisors, Subfranchisor shall be responsible for requiring that such Territorial Subfranchisors pay such expenses in accordance with the revenues they retain as a result of the use of the Marks.

(v) In the event of any suit, action, litigation or proceeding relating to Subfranchisor’s use of the CENTURY 21 Marks, Subfranchisor shall execute any and all documents and do such acts as may, in the opinion of GLOBAL, be necessary or appropriate to carry out any defense or affirmative action/prosecution, including, but not limited to, becoming a nominal party to any such suit, action, litigation or proceeding.

10. ASSIGNMENT.

A. Consent of GLOBAL. This Agreement is being entered into by GLOBAL in reliance upon and in consideration of the singular skill, qualifications and representations of the officers, directors, and Shareholders of Subfranchisor who will actively participate in the ownership and operation of the subfranchised business and operations. Therefore, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or privileges granted hereunder shall be assigned (or the duties and obligations of Subfranchisor delegated), transferred,

28

shared or divided by operation of law or otherwise in any manner, without the prior written consent of GLOBAL. Such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; however, Subfranchisor shall reimburse GLOBAL for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with any such assignment or proposed assignment, including reasonable costs not to exceed Two Thousand Five Hundred U.S. Dollars (U.S. $2,500.00) of investigating the proposed assignee, and attorney’s fees not to exceed Five Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S. $5,000.00). A sale or transfer of stock totaling more than twenty-five percent (25%), or a series of sales or transfers of stock totaling (cumulatively) more than forty-nine (49%) of the stock of Subfranchisor or the stock of a corporate Shareholder of Subfranchisor shall be deemed an assignment of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, GLOBAL hereby grants its consent to the assignment or transfer by Subfranchisor of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, upon notice to GLOBAL as specified in Subparagraph 22A of this Agreement, at no charge to Subfranchisor, of this Agreement to (i) a properly formed and capitalized corporation of which Subfranchisor or its majority owned subsidiary at all times owns at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the total equity (voting and non-voting) of any such assignee corporation or; (ii) a properly formed and capitalized entity at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the voting stock of which is owned by Subfranchisor and/or the Shareholders in the same percentages as the Shareholders of Subfranchisor. Subfranchisor shall take any and all actions as may be required by applicable Chinese laws and legal requirements of the Territory to assure the effectiveness of any assignment made hereunder as between Subfranchisor and GLOBAL and as against all third parties, including, without limitation, the Franchisees. Whether or not a sale or transfer of stock constitutes an “assignment” under this Agreement, Subfranchisor shall notify GLOBAL of the name, address and background of the transferee within fifteen (15) days after any such sale or transfer of the stock of Subfranchisor or the stock of a corporate Shareholder of Subfranchisor totaling (cumulatively) more than five percent (5%) of the stock thereof.

B. Conditions On Consent. Subject to Subparagraph 10A hereof, any actual or purported assignment or transfer by Subfranchisor of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without GLOBAL’s prior written consent shall be a default of a material obligation of this Agreement and shall be null and void. In reviewing any request for its consent to any proposed assignment or transfer, GLOBAL will consider in good faith among other things, the qualifications, apparent ability and credit standing of the proposed transferee. In addition and without limitation, GLOBAL shall be entitled to require as a condition precedent to the granting of its consent that:

(i) There shall be no existing material default in the performance or observance of any of Subfranchisor’s material obligations to any supplier or to GLOBAL or to any Franchisee; and

(ii) Subfranchisor, prior to or out of the proceeds of the proposed assignment or transfer, shall settle all outstanding accounts with GLOBAL and all other trade creditors of Subfranchisor, save and except those accounts that are subject to bona fide dispute; provided, however, that the amount of such claim shall be withheld from the proceeds and set aside in an escrow account pending resolution of the dispute; and

29

(iii) The proposed transferee and, if applicable, its shareholders shall have entered into a written assignment and guarantee in form reasonably prescribed by GLOBAL, assuming and agreeing to discharge all of Subfranchisor’s obligations under this Agreement; and

(iv) If required by GLOBAL, the individual who will be primarily responsible for the operation of the business and any other persons reasonably required by GLOBAL shall have satisfactorily completed, at his/her expense, GLOBAL’s training programs then in effect; and

(v) The proposed transferee shall have a Net Worth and Liquid Capital at least equal to the minimums required under Subparagraph 5M of this Agreement; and

(vi) Unless GLOBAL otherwise agrees in writing, any transfer of assets shall be effected in compliance with all applicable bulk sales legislation.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the consent of GLOBAL to an assignment or transfer shall not be withheld solely because the proposed transfer involves a public offering. In addition, it shall not be deemed a breach of this Paragraph 10 if a “transfer” occurs by operation of law in the event of a death of a Shareholder; provided that any such transfer shall be voidable by GLOBAL unless and until GLOBAL consents to such transfer after a timely, good faith and diligent review of the qualifications of such transferee by operation of law upon the death of a Shareholder. In the event GLOBAL declines in good faith to approve such transfer upon death, GLOBAL shall cooperate with the transferee and Shareholder’s estate regarding the orderly transfer to a qualified transferee. With respect to any assignment or transfer under Paragraph 10, the citizenship or residency of the proposed assignee or transferee shall not be grounds for withholding by GLOBAL of its consent, unless the laws of the Territory shall preclude such assignee or transferee from owing and/or operating the subfranchise business.

11. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. If Subfranchisor shall desire to assign its rights under this Agreement, other than with respect to the pre-approved assignments set forth in Subparagraph 10 A above, it shall first serve upon GLOBAL a written notice setting forth all the terms and conditions of the proposed assignment and all available information concerning the proposed assignment and the proposed assignee. Within sixty (60) days after the receipt of such notice (or if GLOBAL requests additional information, within sixty (60) days after receipt of such additional information), GLOBAL may either consent to the assignment, deny its consent, giving the reasons therefor pursuant to Paragraph 10, or, at its option, accept the assignment to itself and acquire the subfranchise upon the terms and conditions specified in the notice. Consent to an assignment upon the specified terms and conditions shall not be deemed to be a consent to an assignment on any other terms and conditions, nor to any other persons, nor to any other or subsequent assignment. In the event of a proposed sale or transfer of any stock in Subfranchisor or the stock of a corporate

30

Shareholder of the Subfranchisor, GLOBAL may condition its approval of the assignment upon this right of first refusal being extended to apply to the proposed sale or transfer of stock when the total amount to be transferred exceeds twenty-five percent (25%) or when the cumulative total amount to be transferred when added to any previous transfer(s) of stock exceeds twenty-five percent (25%). This right of first refusal shall not apply with respect to transfers of the equity of Subfranchisor between the Shareholders only. Subfranchisor shall keep GLOBAL advised in writing of all proposed changes of its Shareholders or the shareholders of a corporate Shareholder of Subfranchisor. Subfranchisor shall be required to comply with all of the notice and diligence requirements of this Paragraph 11 with respect to any pre-approved assignment set forth in Subparagraph 10 A above.

Subfranchisor shall obtain individual covenants substantially similar to those contained in this Paragraph 15 from its officers, directors and Shareholders; provided, however, that the prohibition on engaging in the sale of other real estate brokerage franchises shall apply only to Shareholders owning ten percent (10%) or more of Subfranchisor’s stock at any time during the term of this Agreement, and Subfranchisor shall have the sole obligation to exercise its best efforts to timely and fully enforce such covenants. This Paragraph 15 shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement.

16. INSPECTION OF BOOKS AND RECORDS. Subfranchisor agrees to maintain, at its sole expense, a complete set of books and records at its principal place of business at all times, and provide GLOBAL with an audit of such books and records at least annually, certified by an independent accounting firm of recognized international standing. Subfranchisor shall allow GLOBAL to make inspections of Subfranchisor’s business, including, without limitation, its books and records, at any reasonable time during normal working hours, provided that an officer, manager or principal of Subfranchisor or a representative of Subfranchisor’s accounting firm shall be present at the commencement of any such audit. If any audit of Subfranchisor’s books and records discloses that GLOBAL has been underpaid by more than five percent (5%) during any twelve (12) month period, Subfranchisor agrees to reimburse GLOBAL for the reasonable cost of said audit, plus the amount of the deficiency and interest thereon at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum. This Paragraph 16 survives termination or expiration of this Agreement for a period of three (3) years

17. DEFINITION OF STANDARDS.

A. The CENTURY 21 Standards. Any reference in this Agreement to the CENTURY 21 Standards, or to Appendix I as a standard to be met by Subfranchisor with respect to production, services or any other matter referred to herein in which the CENTURY 21 Standard or Appendix I are to be used as a standard of comparison, shall be binding upon Subfranchisor only for so long as GLOBAL shall be attempting to maintain the same or similar standards of production, services, and other matters throughout the areas in which GLOBAL (and/or CENTURY 21) affiliates and services franchises.

B. Territorial Conditions. The parties hereto understand and acknowledge that due to the differences between the laws, culture, language, business practices and market conditions of the United States and the Territory (hereinafter referred to as “Territorial Conditions”), the CENTURY 21 System delivered to Subfranchisor hereunder must be modified and adapted to conform to said Territorial Conditions. For example, the rights and obligations of Subfranchisor with respect to its Franchisees, to be set forth in a CENTURY 21 Real Estate Franchise Agreement, will be influenced by such Territorial Conditions. The parties hereto agree to discuss in good faith issues which arise as a result of said Territorial Conditions and take a reasonable approach in modifying the CENTURY 21 System to account for the Territorial Conditions; provided, however, that prior to the use by Subfranchisor or the Territorial Subfranchisors or its or their Franchisees of the CENTURY 21 System or Marks, as modified by or adapted to such Territorial Conditions, GLOBAL shall have the right to review and approve or disapprove, as appropriate, in writing such

34

modifications and/or adaptations. Subfranchisor’s views on said Territorial Conditions will be given due consideration, and GLOBAL will not unreasonably disapprove or withhold its approval of modifications or adaptations suggested in good faith by Subfranchisor. GLOBAL acknowledges that prompt review of materials submitted for written approval is important to Subfranchisor’s operations, and will exercise its reasonable efforts to review submitted materials in a timely fashion.

C. Adaptations To Territorial Conditions. Adaptations or modifications to the CENTURY 21 System which are approved in writing by GLOBAL shall become the standard against which Subfranchisor’s performance hereunder will be measured. In addition, any innovation which GLOBAL has instituted with respect to GLOBAL’s or CENTURY 21’s Divisions or affiliates, or Subfranchisor, or Territorial Subfranchisors or other CENTURY 21 international subfranchisors, shall be similarly subject to adaptation and modification in accordance with Territorial Conditions, and shall become the standard of performance hereunder upon approval by GLOBAL as provided herein, it being understood and agreed; however, that no innovation or change shall be required if it conflicts with then-existing Territorial Conditions. Examples of all such approved modifications and adaptations to the CENTURY 21 System and Marks shall be retained by the parties hereto, and the most recent form thereof shall be binding in the event of a dispute concerning Subfranchisor’s performance hereunder.

18. CONTINGENCIES. This entire Agreement shall be subject to:

19. TAXES. Subfranchisor shall be liable for payment of turnover, sales, value-added, consumption, and all similar taxes imposed by the government or other authorities in the Territory. Except as otherwise provided in Subparagraph 4D or this Paragraph 19, Subfranchisor shall make each payment to GLOBAL free and clear of, and without any deduction for, any such taxes. Subfranchisor shall withhold from payments to GLOBAL the amount required to be withheld (if any) under applicable tax laws and/or regulations in any province of the Territory, shall promptly effect payment to the appropriate tax authorities of the taxes so withheld, and shall transmit to GLOBAL official receipts or other evidence issued by such appropriate tax authorities sufficient to

35

enable GLOBAL to support a claim for credit, in respect of any such taxes so withheld and paid, against United States income taxes. Subfranchisor shall fully and promptly cooperate with GLOBAL to provide such information and records as GLOBAL may request in connection with any application by GLOBAL to any taxing authority regarding obtaining tax credit for any withholding or other taxes paid by Subfranchisor on behalf of GLOBAL. Subfranchisor shall indemnify and hold GLOBAL and CENTURY 21 and their respective affiliates and their officers, directors and employees harmless from and against any claims or losses resulting from Subfranchisor’s failure to comply with such obligation under this Paragraph 19.

If, in the opinion of either party hereto, such deletions cannot be made without materially affecting the basic agreement and/or relationship between the parties hereto, this Agreement may be terminated by either party hereto, and, in such event, the parties agree to negotiate in good faith to establish a new agreement which is not in conflict with such laws, ordinances or regulations.

(i) Subfranchisor shall not, without the prior written consent of GLOBAL, disclose, sublicense or sell any of the information or rights it receives from GLOBAL under this Agreement to any person, or any government agency of any nation, if such disclosure, sublicense or sale would be regarded by any governmental agency or department of the U.S. as a breach of the Foreign Assets Control Regulations, 31 C.F.R. Section 500 et seq. (1995), or the Transaction Control Regulations, 31 C.F.R. Section 505 et seq. (1995). Subfrachisor shall obtain a similar commitment from each of its Territorial Subfrachisors and its or their Franchisees.

39

H. Arbitration. All controversies, disputes or claims arising out of, in connection with, or with respect to this Agreement or the breach, termination or validity thereof (“Dispute”), which are not resolved within fifteen (15) days after either party shall notify the other in writing of such Dispute, shall be submitted for arbitration to the New York, New York office of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules then in effect, except as modified herein. The arbitration proceeding shall be conducted and the award shall be rendered in the English language in New York, New York, U.S.A.

(i) There shall be three arbitrators, of whom GLOBAL shall appoint one and Subfranchisor shall appoint one within twenty (20) days of the receipt by the respondent of the demand for arbitration. The two arbitrators so appointed shall select the chair of the arbitral tribunal within twenty (20) days of the appointment of the second arbitrator. If such arbitrator is not appointed within the time limit provided herein, such arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with the Rules. Any arbitrator appointed by the AAA shall be a retired judge or a practicing attorney with no less than fifteen (15) years of experience, and an experienced arbitrator. The arbitral tribunal shall be required to follow the law of the state designated by the parties herein. The arbitral tribunal is not empowered to award damages in excess of compensatory damages, and each party hereby irrevocably waives any right to recover punitive, exemplary or similar damages with respect to any Dispute. The arbitrators shall have the right to award or include in the award any relief which is provided for by law or in this Agreement, including without limitation, money damages (with interest on unpaid amounts from date due), specific performance and injunctive relief. The arbitrators shall issue a written opinion explaining the reasons for the decision and award. The award of the arbitrators shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto and judgment upon the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties acknowledge and agree that any arbitration award may be enforced against either or both or them in a court of competent jurisdiction and each waives any right to contest the validity or enforceability of such award. The parties further agree to be bound by the provisions of any statute of limitations which would be otherwise applicable to the Dispute.

(ii) By agreeing to arbitration, the parties do not intend to deprive any court of its jurisdiction to issue a pre-arbitral injunction, pre-arbitral attachment, or other order in aid of arbitration proceedings and the enforcement of any award. Without prejudice to such provisional remedies as may be available under the jurisdiction of an appropriate U.S. federal court, the arbitral tribunal shall have full authority to grant provisional remedies or modify or vacate any temporary or preliminary relief issued by an appropriate U.S. federal court, and to award damages for the failure of any party to respect the arbitral tribunal’s orders to that effect. Without limiting the foregoing, the parties shall be entitled in any such arbitration proceeding to the entry of an order by a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to a final award of the arbitrators for specific performance of any of the requirements of this Agreement. This provision shall continue in full force and effect subsequent to and notwithstanding expiration or termination of this Agreement.

I. Attorneys’ Fees. Should either party incur attorneys’ fees in order to enforce the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including post-term covenants, whether or not an arbitration or other legal action or proceeding is instituted, the party not in default shall be entitled to reimbursement of such attorneys’ fees and costs, as may be determined by the arbitrator, in addition to any other

40

remedies either party may have at law or in equity. Should any arbitration or other legal action or proceeding be instituted, including enforcement of an arbitral award, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover all costs of such arbitration or other proceeding, including such reasonable attorneys’ fees as may be awarded by the arbitral and/or judicial tribunal, as the case may be.
