Each of the Parties agrees that no press release or similar public announcement, disclosure or communication shall be made concerning the terms of the Transactions, except (i) solely to the extent requested or required to comply with the requirements of applicable Law or applicable stock exchange regulations (including stock exchange, SFC and other regulations applicable to Yahoo! or Alibaba.com Limited), or (ii) if the Parties have consulted and approved such announcement, disclosure or communication in advance of its public disclosure. The Parties acknowledge and agree that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Yahoo! may file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission a Form 8-K and other U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission forms summarizing the material terms of this Agreement and otherwise complying with the requirements of such forms. Yahoo! will provide a draft of such Form 8-K to Purchaser at a reasonable time in advance of its filing and will consider in good faith any comments from Purchaser thereto.

(a) Purchaser shall keep Yahoo! reasonably informed with respect to Purchaser’s plan for financing the Initial Repurchase (including nature, amount and anticipated timing) and with respect to the status of such financing. No later than five Business Days prior to the Initial Repurchase Closing Date, Purchaser shall deliver to Yahoo! the Financing Certificate and provide Yahoo! with an opportunity to review (in person at the offices of Purchaser’s U.S. counsel), but not to make copies of or retain, the equity financing documents relevant to calculating the Repurchase Price. Purchaser may withdraw and may replace any previously-delivered Financing Certificate; provided, however, that Purchaser shall keep Yahoo! informed of such withdrawal or replacement as soon as reasonably practicable after such occurrence and in any event prior to the Initial Repurchase Closing Date.

(b) In the event that, (i) during the Replacement Equity Financing Period, Purchaser sells, or enters into a binding written agreement to sell, Equity Interests for proceeds of more than US$500,000,000 (such financing during such time period, “Subsequent Equity Financing”) and (ii) at any time during the Replacement Equity Use Period Purchaser uses any proceeds of such Subsequent Equity Financing to repurchase Equity Interests or to (x) redeem or repay indebtedness of any of Purchaser’s Subsidiaries incurred after the date of this Agreement or (y) redeem or repay indebtedness of Purchaser (any Subsequent Equity Financing meeting the conditions set forth in both of clauses (i) and (ii), “Replacement Equity Financing”), Purchaser shall, within five Business Days of such repurchase, redemption or repayment, pay to Yahoo! and/or YHK, as applicable, an amount in cash equal to each Seller’s pro rata share of the Make Whole Amount.

(c) No Shares or Equity Interests sold by Purchaser as part of the financing of the Initial Repurchase (including in any Replacement Equity Financing) shall be sold to JT, JM, SB or any of their respective Affiliates.

(d) Following the Initial Repurchase Closing, Purchaser shall cause JM on behalf of himself and the other AGH SAFE 75 Reporting Persons who are required to do so by Law to submit applications to amend the AGH SAFE Circular 75 Registration within 30 days upon the occurrence of any Amendment Event.

(a) In connection with a Qualified IPO, Yahoo! and YHK shall, at Purchaser’s election, either: (i) sell, convey, assign, transfer and deliver to Purchaser, free and clear of all Liens, the IPO Disposition Shares at a price per share equal to the IPO Repurchase Price (an “IPO Repurchase”), or (ii) concurrently with the consummation of the Qualified IPO, sell the IPO Disposition Shares directly in the Qualified IPO (an “IPO Sale”). The allocation of Shares to be sold by Yahoo! and/or YHK in connection with an IPO Repurchase or IPO Sale shall be determined at Yahoo!’s discretion, but Yahoo! shall be liable for the delivery of the full amount of such Shares.

(b) In order to elect to cause Sellers to participate in and complete an IPO Sale, Purchaser shall provide written notice to Yahoo! of such election by no later than 10 Business Days prior to the commencement of marketing efforts by the underwriters with respect to a Qualified IPO (the “IPO Sale Notice”). If Purchaser timely delivers an IPO Sale Notice to Yahoo!, each Seller shall execute, deliver and perform its obligations under (i) the underwriting agreement between the managing underwriter and Purchaser with respect to such Qualified IPO (on terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to Yahoo! (with terms and conditions customary for initial public offering underwritings in the market in which the Qualified IPO is to occur being presumed to be reasonably acceptable to Yahoo!, subject to Sections 4.7(d)(i) and 4.7(d)(ii))), (ii) a lock-up agreement on terms no less favorable to Yahoo! than the terms of the lock-up agreement executed by JM, JT and SB in connection with such Qualified IPO, pursuant to which Sellers shall agree not to sell or otherwise transfer any Shares during the period of time specified in such lock-up agreement (such period not to exceed the shorter of (x) the shortest period specified in any lock-up agreement executed by JM, JT, SB or Purchaser in connection with such Qualified IPO and (y) twelve months, and which lock-up shall include a provision that the underwriters shall not release JT, JM, SB or Purchaser from any such lock-up agreement or waive such Person’s obligations thereunder without concurrently releasing or waiving such obligations of each Seller from its lock-up agreement), and (iii) all other documents customarily required of a selling shareholder in an underwritten public offering, including a power of attorney and custody agreement; provided, that Sellers shall not be required to make any representations regarding Purchaser or Purchaser’s Subsidiaries.

(c) Unless Purchaser timely delivers an IPO Sale Notice to Yahoo! in connection with a Qualified IPO, Purchaser and Sellers shall consummate the IPO Repurchase (the “IPO Repurchase Closing”) on the third Business Day after the completion of such Qualified IPO. At the IPO Repurchase Closing, (i) each Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Purchaser share certificates representing all of the IPO Disposition Shares free and clear of any Liens, (ii) the Purchaser shall make entries in its register of members to record and give effect to the repurchase and cancellation of the IPO Disposition Shares, and (iii) Purchaser shall deliver in accordance with the Cash Payment Procedures an amount in cash to Yahoo! equal to the IPO Repurchase Price multiplied by the number of IPO Disposition Shares (the “Aggregate IPO Repurchase Consideration”). Unless the IPO Sale Notice has been delivered, the obligations to consummate the IPO Repurchase Closing as set forth in this Section 4.7 shall be unconditional, and no further repurchase agreement or other agreement (other than as may be requested by Purchaser in accordance with Section 4.7(d)) shall be required to consummate the IPO Repurchase Closing. All deliveries to be made or other actions to be taken at the IPO Repurchase Closing shall be deemed to occur simultaneously with the other deliveries and actions at the IPO Repurchase Closing.

(d) Sellers shall execute and deliver such additional customary documents, instruments, certificates, filings and agreements and take such additional actions as are reasonably necessary to permit to occur a Qualified IPO, an IPO Repurchase or an IPO Sale or the debt or equity financing of an IPO Repurchase and which do not impose commercially unreasonable terms or conditions on Sellers; provided that:

(i) In connection with a Qualified IPO or IPO Sale, Sellers shall not be required to execute and deliver any such documents, instruments, certificates, filings and agreements or take any such additional actions that (a) are not customarily executed, delivered or taken by shareholders of a listing applicant that are not the “controlling shareholder” (within the meaning of such term or a similar term under the listing rules of the stock exchange on which the Qualified IPO or IPO Sale occurs (including, if applicable, the Hong Kong Listing Rules) or the applicable Laws of the jurisdiction in which the Qualified IPO or IPO Sale occurs); provided that the foregoing shall not relieve the Sellers and their Affiliates from their obligations, if any, as “substantial shareholders” or “connected persons” (within the meaning of such terms or similar terms under the listing rules of the stock exchange on which the Qualified IPO or IPO Sale occurs (including, if applicable, the Hong Kong Listing Rules) or the applicable Laws of the jurisdiction in which the Qualified IPO or IPO Sale occurs), (b) would alter the terms of the Preference Shares (if Sellers own any Preference Shares at that time), or (c) would alter any rights or obligations of Sellers under any of the Transaction Documents except as contemplated by such Transaction Document;

(ii) Sellers shall not be required to execute and deliver any such documents, instruments, certificates, filings and agreements or to take any such actions that would give rise to (i) any obligations imposed on the Sellers or their Affiliates as “controlling shareholder” (within the meaning of such term or a similar term under the listing rules of the stock exchange on which the Qualified IPO or IPO Sale occurs (including, if applicable, the Hong Kong Listing Rules) or the applicable Laws of the jurisdiction in which the Qualified IPO or IPO Sale occurs) of the Purchaser upon completion of an IPO; provided that the foregoing shall not relieve the Sellers and their Affiliates from their obligations as “substantial shareholders” or “connected persons” (within the meaning of such term or a similar term under the listing rules of the stock exchange on which the Qualified IPO or IPO Sale occurs (including, if applicable, the Hong Kong Listing Rules) or the applicable Laws of the jurisdiction in which the Qualified IPO or IPO Sale occurs), or (ii) any non-competition obligations and any obligations to designate business opportunities to the Purchaser.

The Purchaser shall provide Yahoo! and YHK a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any documentation customarily required from selling shareholders for the consummation of the Qualified IPO or an IPO Sale.

(e) In connection with a Qualified IPO, Purchaser shall, prior to Purchaser’s selection of any joint global coordinator with respect to such Qualified IPO, deliver a written request to Yahoo! that Yahoo! select an Eligible Bank (the “Specified Bank Request”), and Yahoo! shall deliver a written notice to Purchaser identifying one Eligible Bank within three Business Days of delivery of the Specified Bank Request (the “Specified Bank Notice”). Within two Business Days of receipt of Specified Bank Notice, Purchaser shall deliver a written notice to Yahoo! either (i) confirming that the Eligible Bank identified in the Specified Bank Notice is acceptable to Purchaser or (ii) rejecting the Eligible Bank identified in the Specified Bank Notice, in which event, within two Business Days of receipt of such rejection notice, Yahoo! shall deliver a new Specified Bank Notice to Purchaser that identifies an Eligible Bank that has not been rejected by Purchaser (in the current or any prior application of this sentence), and this sentence shall apply to such Specified Bank Notice and any successive Specified Bank Notice; provided, that Purchaser is entitled to reject only (x) one Eligible Bank for any or no reason and (y) up to two additional Eligible Banks if such Eligible Bank has acted or is acting as a global coordinator, book runner or lead manager for a capital markets transaction with a Specified Company (provided that Purchaser shall not be entitled to reject an Eligible Bank under this subclause (y) in the event that a global coordinator selected by Purchaser for the Qualified IPO acted or is acting as a global coordinator, book runner or lead manager for a capital markets transaction with such Specified Company); provided, further, that if Purchaser has rejected any of the Eligible Banks under the foregoing subclause (y) and Purchaser subsequently selects a joint global coordinator with respect to such Qualified IPO who acted or is acting as a global coordinator, book runner, or lead manager for a capital markets transaction with such Specified Company, then Yahoo! may elect to change its Specified Bank by delivering a Specified Bank Notice pursuant to the foregoing procedure and Purchaser shall not be entitled to reject pursuant to the foregoing subclause (y) any Eligible Bank identified in such Specified Bank Notice. “Specified Bank” means (i) if Purchaser confirms that an Eligible Bank identified in a Specified Bank Notice is acceptable to Purchaser, or if Purchaser fails to confirm or reject an Eligible Bank in the time required, the Eligible Bank identified in such Specified Bank Notice, (ii) if Purchaser rejects one or two Eligible Banks in accordance with the previous sentence, the Eligible Bank (which shall not be any of the rejected Eligible Banks) identified by Yahoo! to Purchaser in a subsequent Specified Bank Notice and confirmed by Purchaser as acceptable to Purchaser; or (iii) if Purchaser rejects three Eligible Banks in accordance with the previous sentence, the Eligible Bank (which shall not be any of the rejected Eligible Banks) identified by Yahoo! to Purchaser in the Specified Bank Notice delivered to Purchaser within two Business Days of such third rejection. Except as otherwise consented to by Yahoo! (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), the Specified Bank will receive or be provided with underwriting fees in an amount not less than the amount received by the third-most- highly- compensated underwriter in the Qualified IPO; provided that if the Specified Bank is offered an opportunity to provide financing, but does not provide financing, at the same or greater level as at least one of the three most highly compensated underwriters in the Qualified IPO, in any financing of Purchaser (or the entity that is the subject of the Qualified IPO) obtained at or near the time of the Qualified IPO, then fees paid to the Specified Bank shall be determined by Purchaser in its sole, reasonable discretion.

(a) No Withholding. Except to the extent otherwise required by a change in applicable Law after the date hereof, payment by Purchaser of the Aggregate Purchase Consideration, the Make Whole Amount, the Aggregate IPO Repurchase Consideration and the TIPLA Amendment Closing Consideration and any Tax sharing payments made by the Parties pursuant to this Section 4.8 shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any withholding Taxes. Each Party shall provide written notice to the other Party at least 10 Business Days prior to any such deduction or withholding of Taxes, and the Parties shall cooperate and take any action reasonably requested by the other Party in order to minimize or eliminate such withholding Taxes to the extent permitted by applicable Law. If such Taxes are required to be deducted or withheld as a result of a change in applicable Law then, within 10 Business Days after timely remitting such withheld amounts to the applicable Governmental Authority, the Party that made such withholding shall deliver to the Party in respect of which the withholding was made a certified copy of any receipt issued by the Governmental Authority evidencing such remittance, a certified copy of the return reporting such remittance, or other written evidence of such remittance reasonably satisfactory to the Party in respect of which the withholding was made.

(b) Responsibility for Taxes. Subject to paragraphs (c) and (d) below, each Party shall be exclusively responsible for and shall pay any Taxes (including PRC Capital Gains Tax) imposed primarily on such Party or such Party’s Affiliates with respect to the Initial Repurchase, an IPO Repurchase or an IPO Sale; provided that a Party (or its Affiliate) shall not be deemed to be primarily liable for any Taxes for which it is liable solely in its capacity as a withholding agent with respect to payments made to any other Party to the extent such withholding obligation arises as a result of a change in applicable Law after the date hereof.

(i) In the event PRC Capital Gains Tax is imposed on Yahoo! or any of its Affiliates with respect to the Initial Repurchase, Purchaser shall pay to Yahoo! the Anticipated AGH PRC Tax Payment within 10 Business Days following the receipt by Purchaser of a written notice from Yahoo! evidencing payment by Yahoo! or any of its Affiliates of PRC Capital Gains Tax with respect to the Initial Repurchase.

(ii) Within 10 Business Days of Yahoo! filing its consolidated U.S. federal income Tax return for the taxable year in which PRC Capital Gains Tax is imposed on Yahoo! or any of its Affiliates with respect to the Initial Repurchase, Yahoo! shall notify Purchaser in writing of the difference, if any, between the Anticipated AGH PRC Tax Payment and the AGH PRC Tax Payment, which notice shall be accompanied by reasonable detail supporting the computation of the AGH PRC Tax Payment. Within 10 Business Days of Purchaser’s receipt of such notice, if the Anticipated AGH PRC Tax Payment exceeds the AGH PRC Tax Payment, then Yahoo! shall pay such excess amount to AGH.

(iii) Within 10 Business Days of (x) Yahoo! filing its consolidated U.S. federal income Tax return for any taxable year following the taxable year described in clause (ii) above until and including the taxable year ending December 31, 2014 or (y) any other adjustment to the AGH PRC Tax Payment that occurs after the Initial Repurchase and prior to the expiration of the statute of limitations applicable to Yahoo!’s consolidated U.S. federal income Tax return for the taxable year ending December 31, 2014 (whether by reason of any final disposition of a Tax proceeding, the filing of any amended Tax return or otherwise), Yahoo! shall notify Purchaser in writing of the difference, if any, between the AGH PRC Tax Payment (as previously calculated) and the AGH PRC Tax Payment (as calculated at such time), which notice shall be accompanied by reasonable detail supporting the computation of the AGH PRC Tax Payment (as calculated at such time). Within 10 Business Days of Purchaser’s receipt of such notice, (A) if the AGH PRC Tax Payment (as calculated at such time) exceeds the AGH PRC Tax Payment (as previously calculated), then AGH shall pay such excess amount to Yahoo!, or (B) if the AGH PRC Tax Payment (as previously calculated) exceeds the AGH PRC Tax Payment (as calculated at such time), then Yahoo! shall pay such excess amount to AGH.

(iv) Any dispute between the Parties regarding the computation of the AGH PRC Tax Payment or any subsequent adjustment thereof shall be resolved by a nationally-recognized, independent U.S. accounting firm mutually selected by the Parties. Any fees and expenses of such accounting firm incurred in connection with such dispute shall be borne equally by Purchaser, on the one hand, and Yahoo!, on the other hand.

(v) Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist Yahoo! with respect to (A) Tax filings with the PRC Tax authorities and compliance with any procedures relating to PRC Capital Gains Tax, and (B) minimizing or eliminating any potential PRC Capital Gains Tax liability to the extent permitted by applicable Law, in each case, in connection with the Initial Repurchase. Sellers shall authorize one of Purchaser’s Subsidiaries that is a wholly foreign owned enterprise formed under the Laws of the PRC to act as agent of the Sellers for purposes of seeking an exemption from, or seeking to minimize, PRC Capital Gains Tax with respect to the Initial Repurchase, and any related communications with the PRC Tax authorities; provided that, in connection therewith, Purchaser shall, and shall cause such Subsidiary to, (A) provide Yahoo! with copies of any written communications received from the PRC Tax authorities, (B) provide Yahoo! with a reasonable opportunity to comment on any written materials before they are submitted to the PRC Tax authorities, (C) permit Yahoo! to attend any scheduled meetings or conferences with the PRC Tax authorities, and (D) not settle, compromise or abandon such exemption proceeding without the prior written consent of Yahoo! (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(vi) Yahoo!, at its expense, shall have the right to conduct and control any Tax audit, contest or other proceeding relating to PRC Capital Gains Tax with respect to the Initial Repurchase; provided that, in connection with any such audit, contest or other proceeding, Yahoo! shall (A) provide Purchaser with copies of any written communications received from the PRC Tax authorities, (B) provide Purchaser with a reasonable opportunity to comment on any written materials before they are submitted to the PRC Tax authorities, (C) permit Purchaser to attend any scheduled meetings or conferences with the PRC Tax authorities, and (D) not settle, compromise or abandon such audit, contest or proceeding without the prior written consent of Purchaser (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(d) Transfer Taxes. Each of Purchaser and Yahoo! shall be responsible for and shall bear one half of any Transfer Taxes imposed with respect to the Initial Repurchase, regardless of the Party responsible for such Transfer Taxes under applicable Law. The Parties shall cooperate to ensure the timely payment of any Transfer Taxes and the timely filing of any necessary documentation with respect thereto.

(i) In the event PRC Capital Gains Tax is imposed on Yahoo! or any of its Affiliates with respect to the Initial Repurchase, Yahoo! shall use reasonable efforts to maximize the utilization of any foreign Tax credits, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, attributable to, or resulting from, the imposition of such PRC Capital Gains Tax (including, without limitation, by electing to treat any items of Specified Taxable Income as foreign source income pursuant to Section 865(h)(2) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, to the extent permitted by applicable Law).

(ii) Purchaser shall provide Yahoo! on a reasonably timely basis with all information reasonably requested by Yahoo! for purposes of preparing and filing Tax returns or complying with any other requirement under applicable Tax Law, in each case, with respect to Yahoo!’s or any of its Affiliate’s ownership or disposition of Shares (including information relevant to determining and claiming foreign Tax credits, for U.S. federal income Tax purposes); provided, that, for these purposes, Purchaser shall not be required to prepare any information that it does not maintain at such time; provided, further, that Purchaser shall, at Yahoo!’s expense, provide such cooperation as Yahoo! may reasonably request to enable Yahoo!’s external advisors to prepare such information.

Arbitration proceedings (including any arbitral award rendered) shall be conducted in the English language. There shall be three arbitrators (the “Tribunal”), and the Parties agree that one arbitrator shall be nominated by each party for confirmation by the Court in accordance with the Rules.

(d) In order to facilitate the comprehensive resolution of related disputes, and upon request of any Party to the arbitration proceeding, the International Court of Arbitration of the ICC (the “Court”) may consolidate the arbitration proceeding with any other arbitration proceeding involving any of the Parties relating to this Agreement or the Transaction Documents. The Court shall not consolidate such arbitrations unless it determines that (i) there are issues of fact or law common to the proceedings, so that a consolidated proceeding would be more efficient than separate proceedings, and (ii) no Party would be prejudiced as a result of such consolidation through undue delay or otherwise.

(e) The Parties agree that the arbitration shall be kept confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and any element of it (including any pleadings, briefs or other documents submitted or exchanged, any testimony or other oral submissions, and any awards) shall not be disclosed beyond the Tribunal, the ICC, the parties to the arbitration, their counsel and any person necessary to the conduct of the proceeding, except as may be lawfully required in judicial proceedings relating to the arbitration or otherwise, or as required by the rules of the NASDAQ or of any other quotation system or exchange on which the disclosing Party’s securities are listed or applicable Laws.

(g) Nothing contained herein will be construed to exclude a party to an arbitration, prior to the appointment of the Tribunal, from seeking provisional or emergency remedies from any court of competent jurisdiction or pursuant to the Emergency Arbitration Provisions of the ICC, and such application shall not be deemed inconsistent with, or a waiver of, this agreement to arbitrate. None of the Parties shall institute a proceeding in any court or administrative agency to resolve a dispute relating to this Agreement, except for a court proceeding to compel arbitration or otherwise enforce this agreement to arbitrate, to enforce an order or award of the Tribunal or petition for the provisional or emergency remedies provided for herein. The Parties waive objection to venue and consent to the nonexclusive personal jurisdiction of the courts of Singapore in any action to enforce this arbitration agreement, any order or award of the Tribunal or the provisional or emergency remedies provided for herein. In any such permitted court action, the Parties agree that delivery of the complaint or petition by international courier, with proof of delivery, shall constitute valid and sufficient service, and they individually and collectively waive any objection to such service.
