The Company shall within five Business Days of its receipt of (i) the Series C Redemption Election inform each holder of the Series D Preferred Shares of its receipt of the Series C Redemption Election and (ii) the Series D Redemption Election inform each holder of the Series C Preferred Shares of its receipt of the Series D Redemption Election. The right to redemption of the holders of Series C Preferred Shares as provided herein and the right to redemption of the holders of Series D Preferred Shares as provided herein shall rank pari passu with each other.

 

  (b) Series C Redemption Price and Process. In the event of the receipt by the Company of the Series C Redemption Election, the Company shall offer to redeem all of the outstanding Series C Preferred Shares at a per share redemption price (the “Series C Redemption Price”) in cash equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the purchase price for each Series C Preferred Share (as adjusted for any stock splits, combinations, consolidations, stock distributions or dividends), plus all declared but unpaid dividends, or (ii) the fair market value for each Series C Preferred Share, as determined in good faith by the Company and the holders of a majority of the Series C Preferred Shares or, if the Company and the holders of a majority of the Series C Preferred Shares are unable to determine such fair market value by the thirtieth Business Day after the date of receipt by the Company of the Series C Redemption Election (the “Series C Valuation Date”), as determined by an internationally recognized third party appraiser selected by the Company and reasonably satisfactory to the holders of a majority of the Series C Preferred Shares. If no such third party appraiser is agreed and appointed within ten Business Days after the Series C Valuation Date, the holders of a majority of the Series C Preferred Shares shall thereafter have the right at their discretion to select and appoint such third party appraiser. The Company and the holders of a majority of the Series C Preferred Shares shall procure that such third party appraiser shall determine such fair market value within sixty Business Days after the date of its appointment. Within five Business Days after the date (i) on which the Company and the holders of a majority of the Series C Preferred Shares agree on such fair market value or (ii) of receipt of the valuation report from such third party appraiser on such fair market value (as the case may be), the Company shall notify all holders of Series C Preferred Shares of such Series C Redemption Election and provide each such holder with a written notice setting forth the Series C Redemption Price and requesting each such holder to designate within seven Business Days after the date of receipt of such notice (the “Series C Notice Period”) the number of such holder’s Series C Preferred Shares, if any, to be redeemed. Subject to the following provisions of this Article 12(13), the Company shall effect such redemption within fifteen (15) Business Days of the expiry of the Series C Notice Period by payment to each participating holder of an amount equal to the Series C Redemption Price times the number of Series C Preferred Shares designated to be redeemed by such holder.


  (c) Series D Redemption Price and Process. In the event of the receipt by the Company of the Series D Redemption Election, the Company shall offer to redeem all of the outstanding Series D Preferred Shares at a per share redemption price (the “Series D Redemption Price”) in cash equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the purchase price for each Series D Preferred Share (as adjusted for any stock splits, combinations, consolidations, stock distributions or dividends), plus all declared but unpaid dividends, or (ii) the fair market value for each Series D Preferred Share, as determined in good faith by the Company and the holders of a majority of the Series D Preferred Shares or, if the Company and the holders of a majority of the Series D Preferred Shares are unable to determine such fair market value by the thirtieth Business Day after the date of receipt by the Company of the Series D Redemption Election (the “Series D Valuation Date”), as determined by an internationally recognized third party appraiser selected by the Company and reasonably satisfactory to the holders of a majority of the Series D Preferred Shares. If no such third party appraiser is agreed and appointed within ten Business Days after the Series D Valuation Date, the holders of a majority of the Series D Preferred Shares shall thereafter have the right at their discretion to select and appoint such third party appraiser. The Company and the holders of a majority of the Series D Preferred Shares shall procure that such third party appraiser shall determine such fair market value within sixty Business Days after the date of its appointment. Within five Business Days after the date (i) on which the Company and the holders of a majority of the Series D Preferred Shares agree on such fair market value or (ii) of receipt of the valuation report from such third party appraiser on such fair market value (as the case may be), the Company shall notify all holders of Series D Preferred Shares of such Series D Redemption Election and provide each such holder with a written notice setting forth the Series D Redemption Price and requesting each such holder to designate within seven Business Days after the date of receipt of such notice (the “Series D Notice Period”) the number of such holder’s Series D Preferred Shares, if any, to be redeemed. Subject to the following provisions of this Article 12(13), the Company shall effect such redemption within fifteen (15) Business Days of the expiry of the Series D Notice Period by payment to each participating holder of an amount equal to the Series D Redemption Price times the number of Series D Preferred Shares designated to be redeemed by such holder.


  (d) If at any time and from time to time the assets legally available for the redemption of the Series C Preferred Shares and Series D Preferred Shares are insufficient to permit the payment to the holders of all of the Series C Preferred Shares designated for redemption of the full amount of the Series C Redemption Price for such Series C Preferred Shares pursuant to Article 12(13)(b) and to the holders of all of the Series D Preferred Shares designated for redemption of the full amount of the Series D Redemption Price for such Series D Preferred Shares pursuant to Article 12(13)(c), then the assets legally available for redemption of the Series C Preferred Shares and the Series D Preferred Shares shall be used to redeem a ratable number of the Series C Preferred Shares and Series D Preferred Shares held by each holder who has designated Series C Preferred Shares and/or Series D Preferred Shares for redemption in proportion to the redemption amount such holder otherwise is entitled to. Series C Preferred Shares and Series D Preferred Shares which are designated for redemption but which are not redeemed shall remain outstanding and entitled to all of the rights and preferences provided herein. At any time thereafter, when additional funds of the Company are legally available for the redemption of Series C Preferred Shares and Series D Preferred Shares, such funds will be used to ratably redeem the balance of such Series C Preferred Shares and Series D Preferred Shares to the maximum extent permitted by law.

The decision of the chairperson of any general meeting as to the validity of any instrument of proxy shall be final.

 

50. Representation of corporations at meetings

A corporation which is a Member may, by written instrument, authorise such person as it thinks fit to act as its representative at any meeting of the Members and the person so authorised shall be entitled to exercise the same powers on behalf of the corporation which such person represents as that corporation could exercise if it were an individual Member.

  (d) generally be entitled to enjoy all of the rights attaching to Shares.

(3) The holders of Preferred Shares shall be subject to the following rights:

 

  (a) Dividends. The holders of the Series A Preferred Shares, Series B Preferred Shares, Series C Preferred Shares and Series D Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, out of any funds legally available therefor, dividends at the rates of US$0.0050 per share (as adjusted for any Recapitalizations), US$0.0597 per share (as adjusted for any Recapitalizations), US$0.1855 per share (as adjusted for any Recapitalizations) and US$0.3084 per share (as adjusted for any Recapitalizations), per annum, respectively, payable in preference and priority to any payment of any dividend on Ordinary Shares when and as declared by the Board of Directors. The right to such dividends on the Preferred Shares shall not be cumulative, and no right shall accrue to holders of Preferred Shares by reason of the fact that dividends on such shares are not declared or paid in any prior year.


  (b) Liquidation Rights.

(i) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, the holders of shares of Series D Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Company, whether those assets are capital or surplus of any nature, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets of the Company to the holders of Series A Preferred Shares, Series B Preferred Shares, Series C Preferred Shares or Ordinary Shares by reason of their ownership of such shares, an amount equal to the US$3.8544 (as adjusted for any Recapitalizations) per Series D Preferred Share held by them, plus all declared and unpaid dividends, if any. If, upon the occurrence of a liquidation, dissolution of winding up, the assets and surplus funds distributed among the holders of Series D Preferred Shares shall be insufficient to permit the payment to such holders of the full preferential amount, then the entire assets and surplus funds of the Company legally available for distribution shall be distributed ratably among the holders of Series D Preferred Shares.

(ii) After the distribution described in subsection (i) above has been paid in full, the holders of shares of Series C Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Company, whether those assets are capital or surplus of any nature, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets of the Company to the holders of Series A Preferred Shares, Series B Preferred Shares or Ordinary Shares by reason of their ownership of such shares, an amount equal to the US$2.3181 (as adjusted for any Recapitalizations) per Series C Preferred Share held by them, plus all declared and unpaid dividends, if any. If, after the distribution described in subsection (i) above, the assets and surplus funds distributed among the holders of Series C Preferred Shares shall be insufficient to permit the payment to such holders of the full preferential amount, then the entire assets and surplus funds of the Company legally available for distribution shall be distributed ratably among the holders of Series C Preferred Shares.

(iii) After the distributions described in subsection (i) and (ii) above have been paid in full, the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Company, whether those assets are capital or surplus of any nature, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets of the Company to the holders of Series A Preferred Shares or Ordinary Shares by reason of their ownership of such shares, an amount equal to US$0.7467 (as adjusted for any Recapitalizations) per Series B Preferred Share held by them, plus all declared and unpaid dividends, if any. If, after the distributions described in subsection (i) and (ii) above, the remaining assets and surplus funds available shall be insufficient to permit the payment to the holders of Series B Preferred Shares of the full preferential amount, then the entire remaining assets and surplus funds of the Company legally available for distribution shall be distributed ratably among the holders of Series B Preferred Shares.


(iv) After the distributions described in subsections (i), (ii) and (iii) above have been paid in full, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Company, whether those assets are capital or surplus of any nature, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets of the Company to the holders of Ordinary Shares by reason of their ownership of such shares, an amount equal to US$0.0833 (as adjusted for any Recapitalizations) per Series A Preferred Share held by them, plus all declared and unpaid dividends, if any. If, after the distributions described in subsections (i), (ii) and (iii) above, the remaining assets and surplus funds available shall be insufficient to permit the payment to the holders of Series A Preferred Shares of the full preferential amount, then the entire remaining assets and surplus funds of the Company legally available for distribution shall be distributed ratably among the holders of Series A Preferred Shares.

(v) After the distributions described in subsections (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above have been paid in full, the remaining assets of the Company available for distribution to shareholders shall be distributed among the holders of Series A Preferred Shares, Series B Preferred Shares, Series C Preferred Shares, Series D Preferred Shares and Ordinary Shares pro rata based on the number of Ordinary Shares held by each (assuming conversion of all such Preferred Shares pursuant to Section (c) below, notwithstanding no actual conversion).

(vi) For purposes of this Section (b), a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company shall be deemed to be occasioned by, or to include, each of the following transactions (each, a “Company Sale Event”): (aa) the acquisition of the Company by another entity by means of any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, any merger, reorganization or acquisition of shares of the Company); or (bb) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, unless the Company’s shareholders of record as constituted immediately prior to such acquisition or sale will, immediately after such acquisition or sale (by virtue of securities issued as consideration for the Company’s acquisition or sale or otherwise) hold at least 50% of the voting power of the surviving or acquiring entity; provided, that (i) in respect of the Series B Preferred Shares, the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Series B Preferred Shares (based on the number of Ordinary Shares into which each holder’s Series B Preferred Shares is then convertible, as adjusted from time to time pursuant to section (c) hereof) may elect not to treat the foregoing transactions as a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, (ii) in respect of the Series C Preferred Shares, the holders of at least two-thirds ( 2/3) of the outstanding Series C Preferred Shares voting as a separate class (based on the number of Ordinary Shares into which each holder’s Series C Preferred Shares is then convertible, as adjusted from time to time pursuant to section (c) hereof) may elect not to treat the foregoing transactions as a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, and (iii) in respect of the Series D Preferred Shares, the holders of at least two-thirds ( 2/3) of the outstanding Series D Preferred Shares voting as a separate class (based on the number of Ordinary Shares into which each holder’s Series D Preferred Shares is then convertible, as adjusted from time to time pursuant to section (c) hereof) may elect not to treat the foregoing transactions as a liquidation, dissolution or winding up.


(vii) In any of such events, if the consideration received by the Company is other than cash, its value will be deemed its fair market value. Any securities shall be valued as follows:

(aa) Securities not subject to investment letter or other similar restrictions on free marketability:

(A) If traded on a securities exchange or the NASDAQ Stock Market, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing prices of the securities on such exchange over the thirty-day period ending three (3) days prior to the closing;

(B) If actively traded over-the-counter, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the mean of the closing bid and ask prices over the thirty (30) day period ending three (3) days prior to the distribution; and

(C) If there is no active public market, the value shall be the fair market value thereof, as determined and approved in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.

(bb) The method of valuation of securities subject to investment letter or other restrictions on free marketability (other than restrictions arising solely by virtue of a stockholder’s status as an affiliate or former affiliate) shall be to make an appropriate discount from the market value determined as above in (aa) (A), (B) or (C) to reflect the approximate fair market value thereof, as determined and approved in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.


  (c) Conversion Rights. The holders of Preferred Shares shall have the following conversion rights into Ordinary Shares (the “Conversion Rights”):

(i) Optional Conversion. Subject to and in compliance with the provisions of this Section (c), any Preferred Shares may, at the option of the holder, be converted at any time into fully-paid and nonassessable Ordinary Shares. The number of Ordinary Shares to which a holder of Preferred Shares shall be entitled upon conversion shall be the product obtained by multiplying the applicable Conversion Rate then in effect (determined as provided in Section (c)(ii)) by the number of Preferred Shares being converted.

(ii) Conversion Rate. The conversion rate in effect at any time for conversion of Preferred Shares (the “Conversion Rate”) shall be the quotient obtained by dividing the Original Purchase Price applicable to such Preferred Shares by the Conversion Price applicable to such Preferred Shares (determined as provided in Section (c)(iii)).

(iii) Conversion Price. The conversion price for each series of Preferred Shares shall be initially equal to the Original Purchase Price for such series of Preferred Shares. (in each case, the “Conversion Price”). The Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth below, and all references herein to the Conversion Price shall mean such prices as so adjusted.

(iv) Mechanics of Conversion. Each holder of Preferred Shares who desires to convert the same into Ordinary Shares pursuant to this Section (c) shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the Company or any transfer agent for the Preferred Shares and shall give written notice to the Company at such office that such holder elects to convert the same. Such notice shall state the number of Preferred Shares being converted. Thereupon, the Company shall promptly issue and deliver at such office to such holder a certificate or certificates for the number of Ordinary Shares to which such holder is entitled and shall promptly pay in cash or, to the extent sufficient funds are not then legally available therefor, in Ordinary Shares, (at the Ordinary Shares’ fair market value determined by the Board of Directors as of the date of such conversion) any declared and unpaid dividends on the Preferred Shares being converted. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made at the close of business on the date of such surrender of the certificates representing the Preferred Shares to be converted, and the person entitled to receive the Ordinary Shares issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such Ordinary Shares on such date.


(v) Adjustment for Shares Splits and Combinations. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the date that the first Series D Preferred Share is issued (the “Original Issue Date”) effect a subdivision of the outstanding Ordinary Shares without a corresponding subdivision of the Preferred Shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased. Conversely, if the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date combine the outstanding Ordinary Shares into a smaller number of shares without a corresponding combination of the Preferred Shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this Section (c)(v) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

(vi) Adjustment for Ordinary Shares Dividends and Distributions. If the Company at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date makes, or fixes, a record date for the determination of holders of Ordinary Shares entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in additional Ordinary Shares, in each such event the Conversion Price that is then in effect shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such record date is fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction (1) the numerator of which is the total number of Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, and (2) the denominator of which is the total number of Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of Ordinary Shares issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; provided, however, that if such record date is fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Conversion Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter the Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section (c)(vi) to reflect the actual payment of such dividend or distribution.


(vii) Adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange, and Substitution. If at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date, the Ordinary Shares issuable upon the conversion of Preferred Shares are changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by recapitalization, reclassification or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares or stock dividend or a reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale of assets provided for elsewhere in this Section (c)), in any such event each holder of Preferred Shares shall have the right thereafter to convert such stock into the kind and amount of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such recapitalization, reclassification or other change by holders of the maximum number of Ordinary Shares into which such Preferred Shares could have been converted immediately prior to such recapitalization, reclassification or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein or with respect to such other securities or property by the terms thereof.

(viii) Reorganizations. If at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date, there is a capital reorganization of the Ordinary Shares (other than a recapitalization, subdivision, combination, reclassification, exchange or substitution of shares provided for elsewhere in this (c)), as a part of such capital reorganization, provision shall be made so that the holders of Preferred Shares shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of such Preferred Shares the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company to which a holder of the number of Ordinary Shares deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled on such capital reorganization, subject to adjustment in respect of such stock or securities by the terms thereof. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section (c) with respect to the rights of the holders of Preferred Shares after the capital reorganization to the end that the provisions of this Section (c) (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon conversion of Preferred Shares) shall be applicable after that event and be as nearly equivalent as practicable.

(ix) Sale of Shares Below Conversion Price.


(aa) If at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date, the Company issues or sells, or is deemed by the express provisions of this subsection (c)(ix) to have issued or sold, Additional Ordinary Shares (as defined in subsection (c)(ix)(dd)) below)), other than as a dividend or other distribution on any class of stock as provided in Section (c)(vi) above, and other than a subdivision or combination of Ordinary Shares as provided in Section (c)(v) above, for an Effective Price (as defined in Subsection (c)(ix)(dd) below) less than the Conversion Price in effect for any series of Preferred Shares at the time of, and immediately prior to, such issue or sale, then the Conversion Price for each such series of Preferred Shares shall be reduced, as of the opening of business on the date of such issue or sale, to a price determined by multiplying the applicable Conversion Price by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be (1) the number of Ordinary Shares deemed outstanding (as defined below) immediately prior to such issue or sale, plus (2) the number of Ordinary Shares which the aggregate consideration received (as defined in Subsection (c)(ix)(bb)) by the Company for the total number of Additional Ordinary Shares so issued would purchase at such Conversion Price, and (B) the denominator of which shall be the number of Ordinary Shares deemed outstanding (as defined below) immediately prior to such issue or sale plus the total number of Additional Ordinary Shares so issued. For the purposes of the preceding sentence, the number of Ordinary Shares deemed to be outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of (A) the number of Ordinary Shares actually outstanding, (B) the number of Ordinary Shares into which the then outstanding Preferred Shares could be converted if fully converted on the day immediately preceding the given date, and (C) the number of Ordinary Shares which could be obtained through the exercise or conversion of all other rights, warrants, options and convertible securities on the day immediately preceding the given date.

(bb) For the purpose of making any adjustment required under this Section (c)(ix), the consideration received by the Company for any issue or sale of securities shall (A) to the extent it consists of cash, be computed at the net amount of cash received by the Company after deduction of any underwriting or similar commissions, compensation or concessions paid or allowed by the Company in connection with such issue or sale but without deduction of any expenses payable by the Company, (B) to the extent it consists of property other than cash, be computed at the fair value of that property as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, and (C) if Additional Ordinary Shares, Convertible Securities (as defined in subsection (c)(ix)(cc) below) or rights or options to purchase either Additional Ordinary Shares or Convertible Securities are issued or sold together with other stock or securities or other assets of the Company for a consideration which covers both, be computed as the portion of the consideration so received that may be reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of Directors to be allocable to such Additional Ordinary Shares, Convertible Securities or rights or options.


(cc) For the purpose of the adjustment required under this Section (c)(ix)(cc), if the Company issues or sells any rights or options for the purchase of, or shares or other securities convertible into, Additional Ordinary Shares (such convertible shares or securities being herein referred to as “Convertible Securities”) and if the Effective Price of such Additional Ordinary Shares is less than the Conversion Price then in effect for any series of Preferred Shares, the Company shall be deemed to have issued at the time of the issuance of such rights or options or Convertible Securities the maximum number of Additional Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise or conversion thereof and to have received as consideration for the issuance of such Additional Ordinary Shares an amount equal to the total amount of the consideration, if any, received by the Company for the issuance of such rights or options or Convertible Securities, plus, in the case of such rights or options, the minimum amounts of consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise of such rights or options, plus, in the case of Convertible Securities, the minimum amounts of consideration, if any, payable to the Company (other than by cancellation of liabilities or obligations evidenced by such Convertible Securities) upon the conversion thereof; provided that if in the case of Convertible Securities the minimum amounts of such consideration cannot be ascertained, but are a function of antidilution or similar protective clauses, the Company shall be deemed to have received the minimum amounts of consideration without reference to such clauses; provided further that if the minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise or conversion of rights, options or Convertible Securities is reduced over time or on the occurrence or non-occurrence of specified events other than by reason of antidilution adjustments, the Effective Price shall be recalculated using the figure to which such minimum amount of consideration is reduced; provided further that if the minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise or conversion of such rights, options or Convertible Securities is subsequently increased, the Effective Price shall be again recalculated using the increased minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise or conversion of such rights, options or Convertible Securities. No further adjustment of the Conversion Price, as adjusted upon the issuance of such rights, options or Convertible Securities, shall be made as a result of the actual issuance of Additional Ordinary Shares on the exercise of any such rights or options or the conversion of any such Convertible Securities. If any such rights or options or the conversion privilege represented by any such Convertible Securities shall expire without having been exercised, the Conversion Price, as adjusted upon the issuance of such rights, options or Convertible Securities shall be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would have been in effect had an adjustment been made on the basis that the only Additional Ordinary Shares so issued were the Additional Ordinary Shares, if any, actually issued or sold on the exercise of such rights or options or rights of conversion of such Convertible Securities, and such Additional Ordinary Shares, if any, were issued or sold for the consideration actually received by the Company upon such exercise, plus the consideration, if any, actually received by the Company for the granting of all such rights or options, whether or not exercised, plus the consideration received for issuing or selling the Convertible Securities actually converted, plus the consideration, if any, actually received by the Company (other than by cancellation of liabilities or obligations evidenced by such Convertible Securities) on the conversion of such Convertible Securities, provided that such readjustment shall not apply to conversions of Preferred Shares into Ordinary Shares, if any, effected prior to the date of such readjustment.


(dd) “Additional Ordinary Shares” shall mean all Ordinary Shares issued by the Company or deemed to be issued pursuant to this Section (c)(ix), whether or not subsequently reacquired or retired by the Company other than (A) Ordinary Shares issued upon conversion of Preferred Shares, (B) Ordinary Shares issued or issuable to employees, officers or directors of, or consultants or advisors to, the Company or any subsidiary pursuant to share purchase or share option plans or other arrangements approved by the Board, or upon exercise of options or similar rights granted to such parties pursuant to any such plan or arrangement, (C) Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of options, warrants or other Convertible Securities outstanding as of the Original Issue Date, (D) Ordinary Shares and/or Convertible Securities issued in connection with an acquisition or similar business combination approved by the Board of Directors pursuant to Article 4 and other Articles hereof, and (E) Ordinary Shares and/or Convertible Securities the issuance of which is specifically excluded from the provisions of this Section (c)(ix) by unanimous vote or consent of the Board. The “Effective Price” of Additional Ordinary Shares shall mean the quotient determined by dividing the total number of Additional Ordinary Shares issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold by the Company under this Section (c)(ix), into the aggregate consideration received, or deemed to have been received by the Company for such issue under this Section (c)(ix), for such Additional Ordinary Shares.

(x) Certificate of Adjustment. In each case of an adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this Section (c), the Company, at its expense, shall, within five (5) days after the occurrence of the event giving rise to or resulting in such adjustment or readjustment pursuant to this Article, compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the provisions hereof and prepare a certificate showing such adjustment or readjustment, and shall mail such certificate, by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each registered holder of Preferred Shares affected by such adjustment or readjustment at the holder’s address as shown in the Company’s books. The certificate shall set forth such adjustment or readjustment, showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a statement of (aa) the consideration received or deemed to be received by the Company for any Additional Ordinary Shares issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold, (bb) the Conversion Price at the time in effect, (cc) the number of Additional Ordinary Shares and (dd) the type and amount, if any, of other property which at the time would be received upon conversion of the Preferred Shares.


(xi) Notices of Record Date. Upon (aa) any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of any class of Shares for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution, or (bb) any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital of the Company, or any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, the Company shall mail to each holder of Preferred Shares at least twenty (20) days prior to the record date specified therein a notice specifying (A) the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend or distribution and a description of such dividend or distribution, (B) the date on which any such reorganization, reclassification, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective, and (C) the date, if any, that is to be fixed as to when the holders of record of Ordinary Shares (or other securities) shall be entitled to exchange their Ordinary Shares (or other securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, dissolution, liquidation or winding up.

(xii) Automatic Conversion. Each Series A Preferred Share, Series B Preferred Share and Series C Preferred Share shall automatically be converted into Ordinary Shares at the Conversion Price at the time in effect for such series of Preferred Shares, immediately upon the earlier of (aa) the closing of an Initial Public Offering at a price per share that reflects a pre-offering valuation of the Company of not less than US$600,000,000, which valuation shall be calculated based on the midpoint of the per share price range specified in the preliminary prospectus for such public offering (“Qualified Public Offering”); or (bb) the date specified by written consent of the holders of more than 50% of the then outstanding shares of such series of Preferred Shares approving the conversion of all of the then outstanding shares of such series of Preferred Shares into Ordinary Shares; provided that the conversion of the Series C Preferred Shares into Ordinary Shares pursuant to foregoing clause (bb) shall require the written consent of the holders of at least two thirds ( 2/3) of the then outstanding Series C Preferred Shares. Each Series D Preferred Share shall automatically be converted into Ordinary Shares at the Conversion Price at the time in effect for the Series D Preferred Shares, immediately upon the earlier of (aa) the closing of a Qualified Public Offering or (bb) the date specified by written consent of the holders of at least two thirds ( 2/3) of the then outstanding shares of the Series D Preferred Shares approving the conversion of all of the then outstanding shares of such Series D Preferred Shares into Ordinary Shares. In such event, the affected Preferred Shares shall be converted automatically without any further action by the holders of such shares and whether or not the certificates representing such shares are surrendered to the Company or its transfer agent; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to issue certificates evidencing the Ordinary Shares issuable upon such conversion unless the certificates evidencing such Preferred Shares are either delivered to the Company or its transfer agent as provided below, or the holder notifies the Company or its transfer agent that such certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement satisfactory to the Company to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection with such certificates. Upon the occurrence of such automatic conversion of Preferred Shares, the holders of Preferred Shares shall surrender the certificates representing such shares at the office of the Company or any transfer agent for Preferred Shares. Thereupon, there shall be issued and delivered to such holder promptly at such office and in its name as shown on such surrendered certificate or certificates, a certificate or certificates for the number of Ordinary Shares into which the Preferred Shares surrendered were convertible on the date on which such automatic conversion occurred, and any declared and unpaid dividends shall be paid in accordance with the provisions of Section (c)(iv).


(xiii) Fractional Shares. No fractional Ordinary Shares shall be issued upon conversion of Preferred Shares. All Ordinary Shares (including fractions thereof) issuable upon conversion of more than one Preferred Share by a holder thereof shall be aggregated for purposes of determining whether the conversion would result in the issuance of any fractional share. If, after the aforementioned aggregation, the conversion would result in the issuance of any fractional share, the Company shall, in lieu of issuing any fractional share, pay cash equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the Ordinary Shares’ fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors) on the date of conversion.

(xiv) Reservation of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Ordinary Shares, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of the Preferred Shares, such number of its Ordinary Shares as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding Preferred Shares. If at any time the number of authorized but unissued Ordinary Shares shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding Preferred Shares, the Company will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued Ordinary Shares to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose.

(xv) Notices. Any notice required by the provisions of this Section (c) shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given: (aa) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified; (bb) when sent by confirmed telex or facsimile if sent during normal business hours of the recipient; if not, then on the next business day; (cc) five (5) days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid; or (dd) one (1) day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with written verification of receipt. All notices shall be addressed to each holder of record at the address of such holder appearing on the books of the Company.


(xvi) Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay all taxes (other than taxes based upon income) and other governmental charges that may be imposed with respect to the issue or delivery of Ordinary Shares upon conversion of Preferred Shares, excluding any tax or other charge imposed in connection with any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of Ordinary Shares in a name other than that in which the Preferred Shares so converted were registered.

 

  (d) Voting Rights. The holder of each Preferred Share shall have the right to one vote for each Ordinary Share into which such Preferred Share could then be converted, and with respect to such vote, such holder shall have full voting rights and powers equal to the voting rights and powers of the holders of Ordinary Shares, and shall be entitled, notwithstanding any provision hereof, to notice of any shareholders’ meeting in accordance with the articles of this Company, and shall be entitled to vote, together with holders of Ordinary Shares, with respect to any question upon which holders of Ordinary Shares have the right to vote at a class meeting of the Ordinary Shareholders. Fractional votes shall not, however, be permitted and any fractional voting rights available on an as-converted basis (after aggregating all shares into which shares of Preferred Shares held by each holder could be converted) shall be rounded to the nearest whole number (with one-half being rounded upward).

 

  (e) Protective Provisions.

(i) Series A Preferred Shares. In addition to any other rights provided by law, so long as at least 6,450,000 Series A Preferred Shares (as adjusted for any Recapitalizations) shall be outstanding, the Company shall not, without first obtaining the affirmative vote or written consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Series A Preferred Shares voting as a separate class (based on the number of Ordinary Shares into which each holder’s Series A Preferred Shares is then convertible, as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section (c) hereof):

(aa) waive, amend, or repeal any provision of the Articles of Association if such action would adversely alter or change the rights, preferences or privileges of, or the restrictions provided for the benefit of, the Series A Preferred Shares;


(bb) increase or decrease the authorized number of shares of Series A Preferred Shares; or

(cc) create (by reclassification or otherwise) any new class or series of shares having rights, preferences or privileges senior to or on a parity with the Series A Preferred Shares.

(ii) Series B Preferred Shares. In addition to any other rights provided by law, so long as at least 3,000,000 Series B Preferred Shares (as adjusted for any Recapitalizations) shall be outstanding, the Company (1) shall not, without first obtaining the affirmative vote or written consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Series B Preferred Shares voting as a separate class (based on the number of Ordinary Shares into which each holder’s Series B Preferred Shares is then convertible, as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section (c) hereof) and (2) in the case of (aa), (cc), (dd), (ee) and (ff) below, shall procure that each of the other Group Members shall not, without obtaining the affirmative vote or written consent of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Series B Preferred Shares voting as a separate class (based on the number of Ordinary Shares into which each holder’s Series B Preferred Shares is then convertible, as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section (c) hereof):

(aa) waive, amend, or repeal any provision of the articles of association or other charter documents of such Group Member if such action would adversely alter or change the rights, preferences or privileges of, or the restrictions provided for the benefit of, the Series B Preferred Shares;

(bb) increase or decrease the authorized number of shares of Series B Preferred Shares;

(cc) create (by reclassification, merger or otherwise) any new class or series of shares having rights, preferences or privileges with respect to dividends, or payments upon liquidation senior to or on a parity with the Series B Preferred Shares or having voting rights other than those granted to the Preferred Shares generally;


(dd) take any action that would expose the holders of Series B Preferred Shares to more than a minimal risk of being subject to taxation under Section 305 of the United States Internal Revenue Code;

(ee) redeem or repurchase any of the Company’s shares or declare a dividend with respect to any such shares; provided, however, that this provision shall not apply to the Company’s redemption or repurchase of shares issued to or held by employees, officers, directors or consultants of the Company upon termination of their employment or services or pursuant to agreements providing for the right of such repurchase between the Company and such persons;

(ff) change the number of Directors constituting the full Board and the board of directors of each of the Offshore Group Members (as defined in the Series D Purchase Agreement); or
