SECTION 13
MISCELLANEOUS

 

13.1.                     No Partnership. The Parties expressly do not intend to form a partnership, either general or limited, under any jurisdiction’s partnership law. The Parties do not intend to be partners to each other, partners as to any third party, or create any fiduciary relationship among themselves, solely by virtue of transactions contemplated hereby or either Investor’s status as holder of the Sale Shares. The Sellers further acknowledge that neither Investor is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company or either Seller (or in any similar capacity) with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and neither Seller has received any advice given by either Investor or any of their respective representatives or agents in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby except for the Investors Warranties set forth in Schedule 3 hereto.

 

13.2.                     Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented except by a written instrument executed by each of the Parties.

 

13.3.                     Waiver. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless set forth in a written instrument signed by the Party waiving such provision. No failure or delay by a Party in exercising any right, power or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of the same preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. Without limiting the foregoing, no waiver by a Party of any breach by any other Party of any provision hereof shall be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of that or any other provision hereof.

 

13.4.                     Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the whole agreement among the Parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior agreements or understandings relating to such subject matter.

 

13.5.                     Severability. Each and every obligation under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate obligation and shall be severally enforceable as such and in the event of any obligation or obligations being or becoming unenforceable in whole or in part. To the extent that any provision or provisions of this Agreement are unenforceable they shall be deemed to be deleted from this Agreement, and any such deletion shall not affect the enforceability of such provisions of this Agreement as remain not so deleted.

 

16


 

13.6.                     Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts including counterparts transmitted by telecopier or facsimile, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which signed and taken together, shall constitute one document.

Either Investor may assign this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations hereunder to any of its wholly owned subsidiaries; subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, and provided that such Investor undertakes to promptly notify the Sellers in writing of any such assignment and that such Investor shall remain liable for any of its obligations hereunder.

 

13.8.                     Further Assurances. Each Party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as the other Party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

13.9.                     Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each Party shall be entitled to specific performance under this Agreement. The Parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by the non-defaulting Party by reason of any breach of obligations contained in this Agreement by them and agree to waive and not to assert in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would otherwise be adequate.

 

13.10.              Compliance with Laws. Each Party undertakes to comply with applicable disclosure requirements under applicable securities laws and rules of the stock exchanges having jurisdiction over such Party in connection with the execution and performance of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

14.2.                     Dispute Resolution.

 

(a)                                 Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including the existence, validity, interpretation, performance, breach or termination thereof or any dispute regarding non-contractual obligations arising out of or relating to it (the “Dispute”), shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration administered by the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (“HKIAC”) under the HKIAC Administered Arbitration Rules (the “Rules”) in force when the Notice of Arbitration is submitted in accordance with these Rules.  The seat of arbitration shall be Hong Kong.  The number of arbitrators shall be three, of whom one arbitrator shall be designated by the claimant(s) to the Dispute, one arbitrator shall be designated by the respondent(s) to the Dispute, and the two arbitrators so designated shall, within thirty (30) days of their appointment, designate the third arbitrator, which third arbitrator shall act as the presiding arbitrator.  Should either party fail to designate an arbitrator, or should the two designated arbitrators fail to designate the third arbitrator within thirty (30) days of their appointment, such arbitrator shall be appointed by the HKIAC in accordance with the Rules.  The language to be used in the arbitral proceedings shall be English.

 

(b)                                 This clause shall not preclude Parties from seeking injunctive relief and/ or interim or provisional remedies from a court of competent jurisdiction in aid of arbitration, or pending the establishment of the arbitral tribunal or the arbitral tribunal’s determination of the Dispute.

 

(c)                                  The Parties agree that any award rendered by the arbitral tribunal may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.  The Parties undertake to carry out any award of the arbitral tribunal without delay, and waive their rights to refer any question of law and any rights of appeal on the law or the merits to a court of law or other judicial authority.  No party shall challenge or resist enforcement action taken by another party in whose favor any award is made by the arbitral tribunal.
