  (b)   subject to the righst of the Series A Shares, the right to an equal share in any dividend paid by the Company; and

7.3   The Series A Shares shall have the following rights:-
  (a)   Dividends. The holders of the Series A Shares shall be entitled to receive out of any funds legally available therefor, when and if declared by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board"), dividends at the rate or in the amount as the Board considers appropriate in preference to any dividend on any other class or series of shares of the Company; provided that no dividend, whether in cash, in property or in shares of the capital of the Company, shall be paid on any other class or series of shares of the Company unless and until a dividend in like amount is first paid in full on the Series A Shares (on an as-converted basis). Holders of the Series A Shares shall also be entitled to receive any non-cash dividends declared by the Board on an as-converted basis.
 
  (b)   Liquidation Preference.

(SEAL)

 


 
      dividends thereon (the "Preference Amount"). After the full liquidation Preference Amount on all outstanding Series A Shares has been paid, any remaining funds or assets of the Company legally available for distribution to Shareholders shall be distributed pro rata among the holders of the Series A Shares (on an as-converted basis) together with the holders of the Ordinary Shares. If the Company has insufficient assets to permit payment of the Preference Amount in full to all holders of Series A Shares, then the assets of the Company shall be distributed ratably to the holders of the Series A Shares in proportion to the Preference Amount each such holder of Series A Shares would otherwise be entitled to receive.
      (2) In the event of (i) a sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or (ii) a consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other company or companies in which the existing Shareholders of the Company, at the time immediately before such consolidation or merger takes place, do not retain a majority of the voting power in the surviving company, the Company shall, to the extent legally entitled to do so, distribute to its Shareholders the amount received on such sale, disposition or consolidation in either the same form of consideration received by the Company or in cash, as the Company may determine, whether such payment is in the form of a dividend or other legally permissible form (the "Compulsory Payment"). The Compulsory Payment will be distributed to the Shareholders of the Company as follows:
  (A)   to the holders of the Series A Shares, an amount equal to the Preference Amount that would be payable to such holders pursuant to paragraph 7.3(b)(l) in the circumstances set forth therein (collectively, the "Compulsory Payment Preference"). If the value of the Compulsory Payment is less than the Compulsory Payment Preference, then the Compulsory Payment shall be distributed pro rata amongst the holders of all outstanding Series A Shares; and
 
  (B)   the remainder (after payment in accordance with paragraph 7.3(b)(2)(A) above), if any, to the holders of Series A Shares and Ordinary Shares on a pro rata basis, based on the number of Ordinary Shares then held by each holder on an as-converted basis.
      (3) Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph 7.3(b), the Company may at any time, out of funds legally available therefor, repurchase Ordinary Shares of the Company issued to or held by employees, officers or consultants of the Company or its subsidiaries upon termination of their employment or services, pursuant to any bona fide agreement providing for such right of repurchase, whether or not dividends on the Series A Shares shall have been declared.
 
      (4) In the event the Company proposes to distribute assets other than cash in connection with any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the value of the assets to be distributed to the holder of Series A Shares and Ordinary Shares shall be determined in good faith by the liquidator (or, in the case of any proposed distribution in connection with a transaction which is a deemed liquidation hereunder, by the Board, which decision shall include the affirmative vote of at least one (1) director appointed by Sequoin Capital China I, L.P.). Any securities not subject to investment letter or similar restrictions on free marketability shall be valued as follows:
  (i)   If traded on a securities exchange, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the security's closing prices on such exchange over the thirty (30) day ending one (1) day prior to the distribution;
 
  (ii)   If actively traded over-the-counter, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing bid prices over the thirty (30) day period ending three (3) days prior to the distribution; and
 
  (iii)   If there is no active public market, the value shall be the fair market value thereof as determined in good faith by the liquidator (or, in the case of any proposed distribution in connection with a transaction which is a deemed liquidation hereunder, by the Board).
      (5) The method of valuation of securities subject to restrictions on free marketability shall be adjusted to make an appropriate discount from the market value determined as above in clauses

 


 
      (i), (ii) or (iii) to reflect the fair market value thereof as determined in good faith by the liquidator (or, in the case of any proposed distribution in connection with a transaction which is a deemed liquidation hereunder, by the Board). The holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Series A Shares shall have the right to challenge any determination by the liquidator or the Board, as the case may be, of fair market value pursuant to this paragraph 7.3(b), in which case the determination of fair market value shall be made by an independent appraiser selected jointly by the liquidator or the Board, as the case may be and the challenging parties, the cost of such appraisal to be borne equally by the challenging parties and the Company.
 
  (c)   Conversion Rights. Unless converted earlier pursuant to paragraph 7.3(d) below, each holder of Series A Shares shall have the right, at such holder's sole discretion, to convert all or any portion of the Series A Shares into Ordinary Shares at any time. The conversion rate for the Series A Shares shall be determined by dividing the Series A Issue Price for each of the Series A Shares by its conversion price provided that in the event of any share splits, share combinations, share dividends, recapitalisations and similar events, the initial Series A Conversion Price shall be adjusted accordingly.
 
      The conversion price for each of the Series A Shares, subject to adjustments from time to time in the event of any share splits, share combinations, share dividends, recapitalisations and similar events in accordance with the provisions hereof, is referred hereinafter as Series A Conversion Price. The initial Series A Conversion Price for each of the Series A Shares shall be its Series A Issue Price.
 
  (d)   Automatic Conversion. The Series A Shares would automatically be converted into Ordinary Shares, at the then applicable Series A Conversion Price, upon (i) the date specified by written consent or agreement of the holders of at least 75% of the Series A Shares then outstanding, or (ii) the closing of an underwritten public offering of the Ordinary Shares of the Company in the United States, that has been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), with gross proceeds to the Company in excess of US$70,000,000 and a pre-public offering market capitalization of at least US$300,000,000, or in a similar public offering of the Ordinary Shares of the Company in another jurisdiction which results in the Ordinary Shares trading publicly on a recognized regional or national securities exchange; provided that such offering satisfies the foregoing gross proceeds and pre-public offering market capitalization requirements (a "Qualified Public Offering"). In the event of the automatic conversion of the Series A Shares upon a Qualified Public Offering as aforesaid, the person(s) entitled to receive the Ordinary Shares issuable upon such conversion of Series A Shares shall not be deemed to have converted such Series A Shares until immediately prior to the closing of such Qualified Public Offering.
 
  (e)   Mechanics of Conversion. No fractional Ordinary Share shall be issued upon conversion of the Series A Shares. In lieu of any fractional shares to which the holder would otherwise be entitled, the Company shall pay cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then effective respective Series A Conversion Price. Before any holder of Series A Shares shall be entitled to convert the same into full Ordinary Shares and to receive certificates therefor, he shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the Company or of any transfer agent for the Series A Shares and shall give written notice to the Company at such office that he elects to convert the same. The Company shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver at such office to such holder of Series A Shares a certificate or certificates for the number of Ordinary Shares to which he shall be entitled as aforesaid and a check payable to the holder in the amount of any cash amounts payable as the result of a conversion into fractional Ordinary Shares. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the shares of Series A Shares to be converted, and the person or persons entitled to receive the Ordinary Shares issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Ordinary Shares on such date. The directors may effect conversion in any matter permitted by law including, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, repurchasing or redeeming the relevant Series A Shares and applying the proceeds towards the issue of the relevant number of new Ordinary Shares.
 
      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 Series A Shares such number of its Ordinary Shares as

 


 
      shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of the Series A Shares, and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued Ordinary shares shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding shares of the Series A Shares, in addition to such other remedies as shall be available to the holder of such Series A Shares, the Company will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its legal counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued Ordinary Shares to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes.
 
  (f)   Adjustments to Series A Conversion Price.
  (1)   Special Definitions. For purposes of this paragraph 7.3(f), the following definitions shall apply:
  (i)   "Options" mean rights, options or warrants to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire either Ordinary Shares or Convertible Securities.
 
  (ii)   "Original Issue Date" shall mean the date on which the first Series A Share was issued.
 
  (iii)   "Convertible Securities" shall mean any evidences of indebtedness, shares (other than the Series A Shares and Ordinary Shares) or other securities directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares.
 
  (iv)   "Additional Ordinary Shares" shall mean all Ordinary Shares (including reissued shares) issued (or, pursuant to paragraph 7.3(f)(3), deemed to be issued) by the Company after the Original Issue Date, other than:
  (A)   Ordinary Shares issued upon conversion of the Series A Shares authorized herein;
 
  (B)   up to 66.58 Ordinary Shares (including any of such shares which are repurchased) issued to officers, directors, employees and consultants of the Company pursuant to shares option or purchase plans approved by the Board and the Investors and any other Ordinary Shares held by officers, directors, employees and consultants which are repurchased at cost subsequent to the Original Issue Date;
 
  (C)   as a dividend or distribution on Series A Shares or any event for which adjustment is made pursuant to paragraph 7.3(f)(7) or 7.3(f)(8) hereof;
 
  (D)   any securities issued pursuant to the acquisition of another corporation or entity by the Company by consolidation, merger, purchase of assets, or other reorganization in which the Company acquires, in a single transaction or series of related transactions, all or substantially all assets of such other corporation or entity, or fifty percent (50%) or more of the equity ownership or voting power of such other corporation or entity; and
 
  (E)   pursuant to a Qualified Public Offering.
  (2)   No Adjustment to Series A Conversion Price. No adjustment in the Series A Conversion Price shall be made in respect of the issuance of Additional Ordinary Shares unless the consideration per share for an Additional Ordinary Share issued or deemed to be issued by the Company is less than the Series A Conversion Price of such series in effect on the date of and immediately prior to such issuance.
 
  (3)   Deemed Issuance of Additional Ordinary Shares. In the event the Company at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date shall issue any Options or Convertible Securities or shall fix a record date for the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive any such Options or Convertible Securities, then the maximum number (as set forth in the instrument relating thereto without regard to any provisions contained

 


 
      therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number that would result in an adjustment pursuant to clause (ii) below) of Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of such Options or, in the case of Convertible Securities and Options therefor, the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to be Additional Ordinary Shares issued as of the time of such issuance or, in case such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, provided that Additional Ordinary Shares shall not be deemed to have been issued unless the consideration per share (determined pursuant to paragraph 7.3(f)(5) hereof) of such Additional Ordinary Shares would be less than the Series A Conversion Price in effect on the date of and immediately prior to such issuance, or such record date, as the case may be, and provided further that in any such case in which Additional Ordinary Shares are deemed to be issued:
  (i)   no further adjustment to the Series A Conversion Price shall be made upon the subsequent issuance of Convertible Securities or Ordinary Shares upon the exercise of such options or conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities;
 
  (ii)   if such Options or Convertible Securities by their terms provide, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any increase or decrease in the consideration payable to the Company, or increase or decrease in the number of Ordinary Shares issuable, upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, the Series A Conversion Price computed upon the original issuance thereof (or upon the occurrence of a record date with respect thereto), and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon any such increase or decrease becoming effective be recomputed to reflect such increase or decrease insofar as it affects such Options or the rights of conversion or exchange under such Convertible Securities;
 
  (iii)   upon the expiration of any such Options or any rights of conversion or exchange under such Convertible Securities which shall not have been exercised, the Series A Conversion Price computed upon the original issuance thereof (or upon the occurrence of a record date with respect thereto), and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon such expiration be recomputed as if:
  (A)   in the case of Convertible Securities or Options for Ordinary Shares, the only Additional Ordinary Shares issued were Ordinary Shares, if any, actually issued upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities and the consideration received therefor was the consideration actually received by the Company for the issuance of all such Options, whether or not exercised, plus the consideration actually received by the Company upon such exercise, or for the issuance of all such Convertible Securities which were actually converted or exchanged, plus the additional consideration, if any, actually received by the Company upon such conversion exchange, and
 
  (B)   in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, only the Convertible Securities, if any, actually issued upon the exercise thereof were issued at the time of issuance of such Options, and the consideration received by the Company for the Additional Ordinary Shares deemed to have been then issued was the consideration actually received by the Company for the issuance of all such Options, whether or not exercised, plus the consideration deemed to have been received by the Company upon the issuance of the Convertible Securities with respect to which such Options were actually exercised;
  (I)   no readjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) above shall have the effect of increasing the Series A Conversion Price to an amount which exceeds the lower of (i) the Series A Conversion Price on the original adjustment date, or (ii) the Series A Conversion Price that would have resulted from any issuance of Additional Ordinary Shares between the original adjustment date and such readjustment date; and
 
  (II)   in the case of any Options which expire by their terms not more than 30 days after the

 


 
      date of issuance thereof, no adjustment of the Series A Conversion Price shall be made until the expiration or exercise of all such Options, whereupon such adjustment shall be made in the manner provided in clause (iii) above.
  (4)   Issuance of Additional Ordinary Shares below Series A Conversion Price. In the event that the Company shall issue any Additional Ordinary Shares (including those deemed to be issued pursuant to paragraph 7.3(f)(3)) at a subscription price per Ordinary Share (on an as-converted basis) less than the Series A Conversion Price (as adjusted from time to time) in effect on the date of and immediately prior to such issuance, the Series A Conversion Price shall be reduced concurrently with such issuance, to a price (calculated to the nearest cent) to be determined as set forth below. The mathematical formula for determining the adjusted Series A Conversion Price is as follows and is subject to the more detailed textual description set forth thereafter:
 
      AP = OP * (OS + (NP/OP))/(OS + NS)
 
      WHERE:
 
      AP = adjusted Series A Conversion Price
 
      OP = old Series A Conversion Price
 
      OS = the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares immediately before the Additional Ordinary Shares are issued or sold
 
      NP = the total consideration received for the issuance or sale of Additional Ordinary Shares
 
      NS = the number of Additional Ordinary Shares issued or sold
 
      The newly adjusted Series A Conversion Price shall be the amount equal to the price determined by multiplying the old Series A Conversion Price, by a fraction:
  (i)   the numerator of which shall be the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to such issuance plus the number of Ordinary Shares which the aggregate consideration received by the Company for the total number of Additional Ordinary Shares would purchase at the old Series A Conversion Price; and
 
  (ii)   the denominator of which shall be the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to such issuance plus the number of such Additional Ordinary Shares so issued;
      provided that for the purposes of this paragraph 7.3(f)(4), all Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of outstanding Series A Shares and outstanding Convertible Securities or exercise of outstanding Options (excluding Options issued pursuant to the Company's employee equity incentive plans approved by the Board of Directors) shall be deemed to be outstanding.
 
  (5)   One-time Series A Conversion Price Adjustment based on 2006 Accounts. Upon the delivery by the Company of the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year commencing from April 1, 2006 and ending on March 31, 2007 (the "2006 Accounts") prepared by a "Big 4" accounting firm in accordance with the United States generally accepted accounting principles,
  (i)   if the Net Income of the Company as reflected in the 2006 Accounts is less than US$5,000,000, then the Series A Conversion Price shall be adjusted as of April 1, 2007 by multiplying the Series A Conversion Price in effect on the Adjustment Date by a factor of 0.8192; or
 
  (ii)   if the Net Income of the Company as reflected in the 2006 Accounts is more than US$5,500,000, then the Series A Conversion Price shall be adjusted as of April 1,

 


 
      2007 by multiplying the Series A Conversion Price in effect on the Adjustment Date by a factor of 1.0753
      For the purpose of calculation of the Net Income under this paragraph, the legal accounting and public relation expenses incurred to the Company in connection with Sequoia Capital China I, L.P.'s Series A investment in the Company shall be excluded; provided that the incurrence of any public relation expense by the Company shall be subject to Sequoia Capital China I, L.P.'s prior written approval. Any adjustment to the Series A Conversion Price made pursuant to this paragraph 7.3(f)(5) shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for any other prior or subsequent adjustments made to the Series A Conversion Price pursuant to this Article 7.3.
 
  (6)   Determination of Consideration. For purposes of this paragraph 7.3(f), the consideration received by the Company for the issuance of any Additional Ordinary Shares shall be computed as follows:
  (i)   Cash and Property. Except as provided in clause (ii) below, such consideration shall:
  (A)   insofar as it consists of cash, be computed at the aggregate amount of cash received by the Company excluding amounts paid or payable for accrued interest for accrued dividends;
 
  (B)   insofar as it consists of property other than cash, be computed at the fair value thereof at the time of such issuance, as determined in good faith by the Board; provided, however, that no value shall be attributed to any services performed by any employee, officer or director of the Company; and
 
  (C)   in the event Additional Ordinary Shares are issued together with other shares or securities or other assets of the Company for consideration which covers both, be the proportion of such consideration so received with respect to such Additional Ordinary Shares, computed as provided in clauses (A) and (B) above, as determined in good faith by the Board.
  (ii)   Options and Convertible Securities. The consideration per share received by the Company for Additional Ordinary Shares deemed to have been issued pursuant to paragraph 7.3(f)(3), relating to Options and Convertible Securities, shall be determined by dividing
  (A)   the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issuance of such Options or Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such consideration) payable to the Company upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities by
 
  (B)   the maximum number of Ordinary Shares (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion exchange of such Convertible Securities.
  (7)   Adjustments for Share Dividends, Subdivisions, Combinations or Consolidations of Ordinary Shares. In the event the outstanding Ordinary Shares shall be subdivided (by share dividend, share split, or otherwise), into a greater number of Ordinary Shares, the Series A Conversion Prices then in effect shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such subdivision, be proportionately decreased. In the event the outstanding Ordinary Shares shall be combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a lesser number of ordinary shares the Series A Conversion Price then in effect shall, concurrently with the

 


 
      effectiveness of such combination or consolidation be proportionately increased.
 
  (8)   Adjustments for Other Distributions. In the event the Company at any time or from time to time makes, or files a record date for the determination of holders of Ordinary Shares entitled to receive any distribution payable in securities or assets of the Company other than Ordinary Share, then and in each such event provision shall be made so that the holders of Series A Shares shall receive upon conversion thereof, in addition to the number of Ordinary Shares receivable thereupon, the amount of securities or assets of the Company which they would have received had their Series A Shares been converted into Ordinary Shares on the date of such event and had they thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the date of conversion, retained such securities or assets receivable by them as aforesaid during such period, subject to all other adjustment called for during such period under this paragraph 7.3(f) with respect to the rights of the holders of the Series A Shares.
 
  (9)   Adjustments for Reclassification, Exchange and Substitution. If the Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Series A Shares shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of any other class or classes of shares, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares provided for above), then and in each such event the holder of each share of Series A Shares shall have the right thereafter to convert such share into the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization or reclassification or other change by holders of the number of Ordinary Shares that would have been subject to receipt by the holders upon conversion of the Series A Shares immediately before that change all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.
 
  (10)   No Impairment. The Company will not, by the amendment of its Memorandum and the Articles of Association or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issuance or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of paragraph 7.3(f) and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the Conversion Rights of the holders of the Series A Shares against impairment.
 
  (11)   Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to paragraph 7.3(f), the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to each holder of Series A Shares a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall, upon the written request at any time of any holder of Series A Shares, furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a like certificate setting forth (i) such adjustments and readjustments, (ii) the Conversion Price at the time in effect, and (iii) the number of ordinary shares and the amount, if any, of other property which at the time would be received upon the conversion of Series A Shares.
 
  (12)   Miscellaneous.
  (i)   All calculations under this paragraph 7.3(f) shall be made to the nearest one hundredth (1/100) of a cent or to the nearest one hundredth (1/100) of a share, as the case may be.
 
  (ii)   The holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Series A Shares shall have the right to challenge any determination by the Board of fair value pursuant to this paragraph 7.3(f), in which case such determination of fair value shall be made by an independent appraiser selected jointly by the Board and the challenging parties, the cost of such appraisal to be borne equally by the Company and the challenging holders of Series A Shares.
 
  (iii)   No adjustment in the Series A Conversion Price need be made if such adjustment

 


 
      would result in a change in such Series A Conversion Price of less than US$0.01. Any adjustment of less than US$0.01 which is not made shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time of and together with any subsequent adjustment which on a cumulative basis, amounts to an adjustment of US$0.01 or more in such Series A Conversion Price.
  (g)   Voting Rights. Each Series A Share shall carry a number of votes equal to the number of Ordinary Shares then issuable upon its conversion into Ordinary Shares at the record date for determination of the Shareholder entitled to vote on such matters, or, if no such record date is established, at the date such vote is taken or any written consent of Shareholders is solicited. The Series A Shares shall generally vote together with the Ordinary Shares and not as a separate class, except as provided in paragraph (h) below or as expressly provided in this Memorandum and in the Articles of Association.
 
  (h)   Protective Provisions.
 
      In addition to such other limitations as may be provided herein or in the Articles of Association of the Company, the following acts of the Company shall require a resolution of Shareholders which shall include the prior written approval of the holder(s) of at least 75% of the outstanding Series A Shares; provided that such requirement shall terminate upon a Qualified Public Offering:

In such event, the right of any Holder to include its Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder's Registrable Securities in the underwriting (unless otherwise mutually agreed by a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders and such Holder) to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being registered and reasonably acceptable to the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.3, if the underwriter(s) advise(s) the Company in writing that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of securities to be underwritten, then the Company shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities which would otherwise be registered and underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall be reduced as required by the underwriter(s) and allocated among the Holders of Registrable Securities on a pro rata basis according to the number of Registrable Securities then outstanding held by each Holder requesting registration (including the Initiating Holders); provided, however, that the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be included in such underwriting and registration shall not be reduced unless all other securities are first entirely excluded from the underwriting and registration including, without limitation, all shares that are not Registrable Securities and are held by any other person, including, without limitation, any person who is an employee, officer or director of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company; provided further, that at least twenty-five percent (25%) of shares of Registrable Securities requested by the Holders to be included in such underwriting and registration shall be so included. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriter(s), delivered at least ten (10) business days prior to the effective date of the registration statement. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be excluded and withdrawn from the registration.
               (c) Maximum Number of Demand Registrations. The Company shall not be obligated to effect more than two (2) such demand registrations pursuant to this Section 2.3.

5


 
               (d) Deferral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall furnish to Holders requesting registration pursuant to this Section 2.3, a certificate signed by the President or Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board, it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its shareholders for such registration statement to be filed at such time, then the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than ninety (90) days after receipt of the request of the Initiating Holders; provided, however, that the Company may not utilize this right more than once in any twelve (12) month period; provided further, that the Company shall not register any other of its shares during such twelve (12) month period. A demand right shall not be deemed to have been exercised until such deferred registration shall have been effected.
           2.4 Piggyback Registrations. (a) The Company shall notify all Holders of Registrable Securities in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to filing any registration statement under the Securities Act for purposes of effecting a public offering of securities of the Company (including, but not limited to, registration statements relating to secondary offerings of securities of the Company, but excluding registration statements relating to any registration under Section 2.3 or Section 2.5 of this Agreement or to any employee benefit plan or a corporate reorganization or other Rule 145 transaction, an offer and sale of debt securities, or a registration on any registration form that does not permit secondary sales), and shall afford each such Holder an opportunity to include in such registration statement all or any part of the Registrable Securities then held by such Holder. Each Holder desiring to include in any such registration statement all or any part of the Registrable Securities held by it shall within twenty (20) days after receipt of the above-described notice from the Company, so notify the Company in writing, and in such notice shall inform the Company of the number of Registrable Securities such Holder wishes to include in such registration statement. If a Holder decides not to include all of its Registrable Securities in any registration statement thereafter filed by the Company, such Holder shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include any Registrable Securities in any subsequent registration statement or registration statements as may be filed by the Company with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.
               (b) Underwriting. If a registration statement under which the Company gives notice under this Section 2.4 is for an underwritten offering, then the Company shall so advise the Holders of Registrable Securities. In such event, the right of any such Holder's Registrable Securities to be included in a registration pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder's Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement but subject to Section 2.12, if the managing underwriter(s) determine(s) in good faith that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the managing underwriter(s) may exclude shares from the registration and the underwriting, and the number of shares that may be included in the registration and the underwriting shall be allocated, first, to the Company, second, to each of the Holders requesting inclusion of their Registrable Securities in such registration statement on a pro rata basis based on the total number of shares of Registrable Securities then held by each such Holder, and third, to holders of other securities of the Company; provided, however, that the right of the underwriter(s) to exclude shares (including Registrable

6


 
Securities) from the registration and underwriting as described above shall be restricted so that (i) except for the case of an initial public offering of the Ordinary Shares of the Company, the number of Registrable Securities included in any such registration is not reduced below twenty-five percent (25%) of the aggregate number of shares of Registrable Securities for which inclusion has been requested; and (ii) all shares that are not Registrable Securities and are held by any other person, including, without limitation, any person who is an employee, officer or director of the Company (or any subsidiary of the Company) shall first be excluded from such registration and underwriting before any Registrable Securities are so excluded unless otherwise approved by the majority of the Holders of the Registrable Securities in writing. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriter(s), delivered at least ten (10) business days prior to the effective date of the registration statement. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be excluded and withdrawn from the registration.
               (c) Not Demand Registration. Registration pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall not be deemed to be a demand registration as described in Section 2.3 above. There shall be no limit on the number of times the Holders may request registration of Registrable Securities under this Section 2.4.
          2.5 Form F-3 Registration. In case the Company shall receive from any Holder or Holders of a majority of all Registrable Securities then outstanding a written request or requests that the Company effect a registration on Form F-3 and any related qualification or compliance with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder or Holders, then the Company will:
               (a) Notice. Promptly give written notice of the proposed registration and the Holder's or Holders' request therefor, and any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders of Registrable Securities; and
               (b) Registration. As soon as practicable, effect such registration and all such qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Holders or Holders' Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within twenty (20) days after the Company provides the notice contemplated by Section 2.5(a); provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this Section 2.5:
                    (1) if Form F-3 is not available for such offering by the Holders;
                    (2) if the Holders, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate price to the public of less than US$500,000;
                    (3) if the Company shall furnish to the Holders a certificate signed by the President or Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be materially detrimental

7


 
to the Company and its shareholders for such Form F-3 Registration to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Form F-3 registration statement no more than once during any twelve (12) month period for a period of not more than sixty (60) days after receipt of the request of the Holder or Holders under this Section 2.5; provided that the Company shall not register any of its other shares during such sixty (60) day period;
                    (4) if the Company has, within the six (6) month period preceding the date of such request, already effected a registration under the Securities Act other than a registration from which the Registrable Securities of Holders have been excluded (with respect to all or any portion of the Registrable Securities the Holders requested be included in such registration) pursuant to the provisions of Sections 2.3(b) and 2.4(b); or
                    (5) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to do business or to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance.
               (c) Not Demand Registration. Form F-3 registrations shall not be deemed to be demand registrations as described in Section 2.3 above. Except as otherwise provided herein, there shall be no limit on the number of times the Holders may request registration of Registrable Securities under this Section 2.5.
               (d) Underwriting. If the Holders of Registrable Securities requesting registration under this Section 2.5 intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, the provisions of Section 2.3(b) shall apply to such registration.
          2.6 Expenses. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration pursuant to Sections 2.3, 2.4 or 2.5 (but excluding Selling Expenses) shall be borne by the Company. Each Holder participating in a registration pursuant to Sections 2.3, 2.4 or 2.5 shall bear such Holder's proportionate share (based on the total number of shares sold in such registration other than for the account of the Company) of all Selling Expenses or other amounts payable to underwriter(s) or brokers, in connection with such offering by the Holders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 2.3 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be registered, unless the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding agree that such registration constitutes the use by the Holders of one (1) demand registration pursuant to Section 2.3 (in which case such registration shall also constitute the use by all Holders of Registrable Securities of one (1) such demand registration); provided further, however, that if at the time of such withdrawal, the Holders have learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business, or prospects of the Company not known to the Holders at the time of their request for such registration and have withdrawn their request for registration with reasonable promptness after learning of such material adverse change, then the Holders shall not be required to pay any of such expenses and such registration shall not constitute the use of a demand registration pursuant to Section 2.3.

8


 
          2.7 Obligations of the Company. Whenever required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under this Agreement the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:
               (a) Registration Statement. Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, keep such registration statement effective for a period of up to ninety (90) days or, in the case of Registrable Securities registered under Form F-3 in accordance with Rule 415 under the Securities Act or a successor rule, until the distribution contemplated in the registration statement has been completed; provided, however, that (i) such ninety (90) day period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period any Holder refrains from selling any securities included in such registration at the request of the underwriter(s), and (ii) in the case of any registration of Registrable Securities on Form F-3 which are intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed basis, such ninety (90) day period shall be extended, if necessary, to keep the registration statement effective until all such Registrable Securities are sold.
               (b) Amendments and Supplements. Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement.
               (c) Prospectuses. Furnish to the Holders such number of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by them that are included in such registration.
               (d) Blue Sky. Use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders; provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act.
               (e) Underwriting. In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter(s) of such offering.
               (f) Notification. Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of (i) the issuance of any stop order by the SEC in respect of such registration statement, or (ii) the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing.

9


 
               (g) Opinion and Comfort Letter. Furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting registration of Registrable Securities, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriter(s) for sale, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, or, if such securities are not being sold through underwriters, on the date that the registration statement with respect to such securities becomes effective, (i) an opinion, dated as of such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering and reasonably satisfactory to a majority in interest of the Holders requesting registration, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and (ii) letters dated as of (x) the effective date of the registration statement covering such Registrable Securities and (y) the closing date of the offering from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering and reasonably satisfactory to a majority in interest of the Holders requesting registration, addressed to the underwriters, if any.
          2.8 Furnish Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to Sections 2.3, 2.4 or 2.5 that the selling Holders shall furnish to the Company such information regarding themselves, the Registrable Securities held by them and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be required to timely effect the Registration of their Registrable Securities.
          2.9 Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a registration statement under Sections 2.3, 2.4 or 2.5:
               (a) By the Company. To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, its partners, officers, directors, legal counsel, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or other United States federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a "Violation"):
          (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto;
          (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; or
          (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any United States federal or state securities law, or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any United States federal or state securities law in connection with the offering covered by such registration statement;

10


 
and the Company will reimburse each such Holder, its partner, officer, director, legal counsel, underwriter or controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them, as incurred, in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 2.9(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by such Holder, or any partner, officer, director, legal counsel, underwriter or controlling person of such Holder.
               (b) By Selling Holders. To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will, if Registrable Securities held by Holder are included in the securities as to which such registration qualifications or compliance is being effected, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed the registration statement, each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, any underwriter and any other Holder selling securities under such registration statement or any of such other Holder's partners, directors, officers, legal counsel or any person who controls such Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which the Company or any such director, officer, legal counsel, controlling person, underwriter or other such Holder, partner or director, officer or controlling person of such other Holder may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other United States federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such Holder will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director, officer, controlling person, underwriter or other Holder, partner, officer, director or controlling person of such other Holder in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.9(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided, further, that in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 2.9(b) exceed the net proceeds received by such Holder in the registered offering out of which the applicable Violation arises.
               (c) Notice. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 2.9 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 2.9, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be

11


 
inappropriate due to actual or potential conflict of interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall relieve such indemnifying party of liability to the indemnified party under this Section 2.9 to the extent the indemnifying party is prejudiced as a result thereof, but the omission to so deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 2.9.
               (d) Contribution. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either (i) any indemnified party makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 2.9 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that this Section 2.9 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of any indemnified party in circumstances for which indemnification is provided under this Section 2.9; then, and in each such case, the indemnified party and the indemnifying party will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion so that a Holder (together with its related persons) is responsible for the portion represented by the percentage that the public offering price of its Registrable Securities offered by and sold under the registration statement bears to the public offering price of all securities offered by and sold under such registration statement, and the Company and other selling Holders are responsible for the remaining portion. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by a court of law by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided, however, that, in any such case: (A) no Holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the net proceeds to such Holder from the sale of all such Registrable Securities offered and sold by such Holder pursuant to such registration statement; and (B) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
               (e) Survival; Consents to Judgments and Settlements. The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 2.9 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement, regardless of the expiration of any statutes of limitation or extensions of such statutes. No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.
          2.10. Termination of the Company's Obligations. The Company's obligations under Sections 2.3, 2.4 and 2.5 with respect to any Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by a Holder in a registration pursuant to Sections 2.3, 2.4 or 2.5 shall terminate on the seventh (7th) anniversary of a Qualified Public Offering of the Company.

12


 
          2.11 No Registration Rights to Third Parties. Without the prior written consent of the Holders of a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities then outstanding, the Company covenants and agrees that it shall not grant, or cause or permit to be created, for the benefit of any person or entity any registration rights of any kind (whether similar to the demand, "piggyback" or Form F-3 registration rights described in this Section 2, or otherwise) relating to any securities of the Company which are senior to, or on a parity with, those granted to the Holders of Registrable Securities.
          2.12 Market Stand-Off. Each Holder agrees that, so long as it holds any voting securities of the Company, upon request by the Company or the underwriters managing the initial public offering of the Company's securities, it will not sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any securities of the Company (other than those permitted to be included in the registration and other transfers to affiliates permitted by this Agreement) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for a period of time specified by the representative of the underwriters not to exceed one hundred and eighty (180) days from the effective date of the registration statement covering such initial public offering or the pricing date of such offering as may be requested by the underwriters. The foregoing provision of this Section 2.12 shall not apply to the sale of any securities of the Company to an underwriter pursuant to any underwriting agreement, and shall only be applicable to the Holders if all officers, directors and holders of one percent (1%) or more of the Company's outstanding share capital enter into similar agreements, and if the Company or any underwriter releases any officer, director or holder of one percent (1%) or more of the Company's outstanding share capital from his or her sale restrictions so undertaken, then each Holder shall be notified prior to such release and shall itself be simultaneously released to the same proportional extent. The Company shall require all future acquirers of the Company's securities holding at least one percent (1%) of the then outstanding share capital of the Company to execute prior to a Qualified Public Offering a market stand-off agreement containing substantially similar provisions as those contained in this Section 2.12.
          2.13 Listing in Hong Kong. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions in this Section 2, in the event of a listing of the Company's Ordinary Shares in Hong Kong (the "Listing"):
               (a) The selection of Hong Kong as the jurisdiction, and the relevant exchange as the exchange, for the Listing shall be subject to the prior written approval of Holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities;
               (b) The selection of the sponsor and/or lead manager (and any co-managers) for the Listing shall be subject to the prior written approval of Holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities;
               (c) Each Holder of Registrable Securities shall have the right to include and sell all of the Ordinary Shares (as-converted) held by it in such Listing;
               (d) Each Holder of Registrable Securities shall have the right to attend all meetings in connection with the Listing where the Company is present;

13


 
               (e) The determination of the price at which the Ordinary Shares are to be listed in such Listing shall be subject to the prior written approval of Holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities;
               (f) At any time after the third anniversary of the date of this Agreement, at the written request from Holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities for a Listing, the Company shall use its best efforts to effect such Listing on terms and subject to conditions as agreed upon between the Company and such Holder; and
               (g) The Company shall not require any Holder to hold, or refrain from transferring, any of its shares in the Company beyond the specific period(s) as set forth in the listing rules applicable to such Listing.
          2.14 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may at any time permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration or pursuant to a registration on Form F-3, after such time as a public market exists for the Ordinary Shares, the Company agrees to:
               (a) Make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at all times after the effective date of the first registration under the Securities Act filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to the general public;
               (b) File with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); and
               (c) So long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, to furnish to such Holder forthwith upon request (i) a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 (at any time after ninety (90) days after the effective date of the Company's initial public offering), the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements), or its qualification as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form F-3 (at any time after it so qualifies), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and (iii) such other reports and documents of the Company as a Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any such securities without registration or pursuant to Form F-3.
     3. RIGHT OF PARTICIPATION.
          3.1 General.
               The Investors, the holders of Ordinary Shares and their permitted transferees to which rights under this Section 3 have been duly assigned in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (each a "Participation Rights Holder") shall have the right of first refusal to purchase such Participation Rights Holder's Pro Rata Share (as defined below), of all (or any part) of any New Securities (as defined in Section 3.3) that the Company may from time to time issue after the date of this Agreement (the "Right of Participation").

14


 
          3.2 Pro Rata Share. A Participation Rights Holder's "Pro Rata Share" for purposes of the Right of Participation is the ratio of (a) the number of Ordinary Shares (calculated on a fully-diluted and as-converted basis) held by such Participation Rights Holder, to (b) the total number of Ordinary Shares (calculated on a fully-diluted and as-converted basis) then outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of New Securities giving rise to the Right of Participation.
          3.3 New Securities. "New Securities" shall mean any Series A Shares, any other shares of the Company designated as "Preferred Shares", Ordinary Shares or other voting shares of the Company, whether now authorized or not, and rights, options or warrants to purchase such Series A Shares, Preferred Shares, Ordinary Shares and securities of any type whatsoever that are, or may become, convertible or exchangeable into such Series A Shares, Preferred Shares, Ordinary Shares or other voting shares, provided, however, that the term "New Securities" shall not include:
               (a) up to 66.58 Ordinary Shares (and/or options or warrants therefor) issued to employees, officers, directors, contractors, advisors or consultants of the Company pursuant to the Company's employee share option plans approved by the Board and the Investors;
               (b) any shares of Series A Shares issued under the Purchase Agreement, as such agreement may be amended and any Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the conversion thereof;
               (c) any securities issued in connection with any share split, share dividend or other similar event in which all Participation Rights Holders are entitled to participate on a pro rata basis;
               (d) any securities issued upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any outstanding security if such outstanding security constituted a New Security;
               (e) any securities issued pursuant to a Qualified Public Offering; or
               (f) any securities issued pursuant to the acquisition of another corporation or entity by the Company by consolidation, merger, purchase of assets, or other reorganization in which the Company acquires, in a single transaction or series of related transactions, all or substantially all assets of such other corporation or entity, or fifty percent (50%) or more of the equity ownership or voting power of such other corporation or entity.
          3.4 Procedures.
               (a) First Participation Notice. In the event that the Company proposes to undertake an issuance of New Securities (in a single transaction or a series of related transactions), it shall give to each Participation Rights Holder written notice of its intention to issue New Securities (the "First Participation Notice"), describing the amount and type of New Securities, the price and the general terms upon which the Company proposes to issue such New Securities. Each Participation Rights Holder shall have fifteen (15) days from the date of receipt of any such First Participation Notice to agree in writing to purchase such Participation Rights Holder's Pro Rata Share of such New Securities for the price and upon the terms and conditions specified in the First Participation Notice by giving

15


 
written notice to the Company and stating therein the quantity of New Securities to be purchased (not to exceed such Participation Rights Holder's Pro Rata Share). If any Participation Rights Holder fails to so agree in writing within such fifteen (15) day period to purchase such Participation Rights Holder's full Pro Rata Share of an offering of New Securities, then such Participation Rights Holder shall forfeit the right hereunder to purchase that part of its Pro Rata Share of such New Securities that it did not agree to purchase.
               (b) Second Participation Notice; Oversubscription. If any Participating Rights Holder fails or declines to exercise its Right of Participation in accordance with subsection (a) above, the Company shall promptly give notice (the "Second Participation Notice") to other Participating Rights Holders who exercised their Right of Participation (the "Right Participants") in accordance with subsection (a) above. Each Right Participant shall have five (5) business days from the date of the Second Participation Notice (the "Second Participation Period") to notify the Company of its desire to purchase more than its Pro Rata Share of the New Securities, stating the number of the additional New Securities it proposes to buy (the "Additional Number"). Such notice may be made by telephone if confirmed in writing within two (2) business days. If, as a result thereof, such oversubscription exceeds the total number of the remaining New Securities available for purchase, each oversubscribing Right Participant will be cut back by the Company with respect to its oversubscription to that number of remaining New Securities equal to the lesser of (x) the Additional Number and (y) the product obtained by multiplying (i) the number of the remaining New Securities available for subscription by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Ordinary Shares (calculated on a fully-diluted and as-converted basis) held by such oversubscribing Right Participant and the denominator of which is the total number of Ordinary Shares (calculated on a fully-diluted and as-converted basis) held by all the oversubscribing Right Participants. Each Right Participant shall be obligated to buy such number of New Securities as determined by the Company pursuant to this Section 3.4 and the Company shall so notify the Right Participants within fifteen (15) business days following the date of the Second Participation Notice.
          3.5 Failure to Exercise. Upon the expiration of the Second Participation Period, or in the event no Participation Rights Holder exercises the Right of Participation within fifteen (15) days following the issuance of the First Participation Notice, the Company shall have one hundred and twenty (120) days thereafter to sell the New Securities described in the First Participation Notice (with respect to which the Right of Participation hereunder were not exercised) at the same or higher price and upon non-price terms not materially more favorable to the purchasers thereof than specified in the First Participation Notice. In the event that the Company has not issued and sold such New Securities within such one hundred and twenty (120) day period, then the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any New Securities without again first offering such New Securities to the Participation Rights Holders pursuant to this Section 3.
          3.6 Termination. The Right of Participation for each Participation Rights Holder shall terminate upon a Qualified Public Offering.
     4. TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS.
          4.1 Certain Definitions. For purposes of this Section 4, "Ordinary Holder" means a holder of the Company's outstanding Ordinary Shares and its permitted assignees to whom their rights under this Section 4 have been duly assigned in accordance

16


 
with this Agreement; "Series A Holder" means each of the Investors and its permitted assignees to whom its rights under this Section 4 have been duly assigned in accordance with this Agreement; "Restricted Shares" means any of the Company's securities now owned or subsequently acquired by an Ordinary Holder;
          4.2 Sale of Restricted Shares; Notice of Sale. Subject to Section 4.7 of this Agreement, if any Ordinary Holder (the "Selling Shareholder") proposes to sell or transfer any Restricted Shares held by it, then the Selling Shareholder shall promptly give written notice (the "Transfer Notice") to each Ordinary Holder and each Series A Holder prior to such sale or transfer. The Transfer Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed sale or transfer including, without limitation, the number of Restricted Shares to be sold or transferred (the "Offered Shares"), the nature of such sale or transfer, the consideration to be paid, and the name and address of each prospective purchaser or transferee.
          4.3 Right of First Refusal.
               (a) Series A Holders' Option. Each Series A Holder shall have the right, exercisable upon written notice to the Selling Shareholder, the Company and each other Ordinary Holder and Series A Holder, within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Transfer Notice (the "Series A First Refusal Period"), to elect to purchase all or any part of its pro rata share of the Offered Shares equivalent to the product obtained by multiplying the aggregate number of the Offered Shares by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Ordinary Shares (calculated on an as-converted basis) held by such Series A Holder at the time of the transaction and the denominator of which is the total number of Ordinary Shares (calculated on an as-converted basis) owned by all the Series A Holders at the time of the transaction, at the same price and subject to the same material terms and conditions as described in the Transfer Notice. To the extent that any Series A Holder does not exercise its right of first refusal to the full extent of its pro rata share of the Offered Shares, the Selling Shareholder and the participating Series A Holders shall, within ten (10) days after the end of the Series A First Refusal Period (the "Series A First Refusal Adjustment Period"), make such adjustments to each exercising Series A Holder's pro rata share of the Offered Shares so that any remaining Offered Shares may be allocated to those Series A Holders exercising their rights of first refusal on a pro rata basis.
               (b) Ordinary Holders' Option. If and to the extent the any Offered Shares have not been purchased pursuant to Section 4.3(a), each Ordinary Holder shall have the right, exercisable upon written notice to the Selling Shareholder, the Company and each other Ordinary Holder and Series A Holder, within thirty (30) days following the expiration of the Series A First Refusal Adjustment Period (the "Ordinary First Refusal Period"), to elect to purchase all or any part of its pro rata share of the remaining Offered Shares equivalent to the product obtained by multiplying the aggregate number of the remaining Offered Shares by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Ordinary Shares (calculated on an as-converted basis) held by such Ordinary Holder at the time of the transaction and the denominator of which is the total number of Ordinary Shares (calculated on an as-converted basis) owned by all the Ordinary Holders at the time of the transaction, at the same price and subject to the same material terms and conditions as described in the Transfer Notice. To the extent that any Ordinary Holder does not exercise its right of first refusal to the full extent of its pro rata share of the Offered Shares, the Selling Shareholder and the participating Ordinary Holders shall, within ten (10) days after the end of the Ordinary First Refusal Period (the "Ordinary First Refusal Adjustment Period"), make

17


 
such adjustments to each exercising Ordinary Holder's pro rata share of the Offered Shares so that any remaining Offered Shares may be allocated to those Ordinary Holders exercising their rights of first refusal on a pro rata basis.
               (c) A Series A Holder and an Ordinary Holder shall not have a right to purchase any of the Offered Shares unless it exercises its right of first refusal within the Series A First Refusal Period or Series A First Refusal Adjustment Period, or the Ordinary First Refusal Period or Ordinary First Refusal Adjustment Period, as the case may be, to purchase up to all of its pro rata share of the Offered Shares.
               (d) Expiration Notice. Within ten (10) days after expiration of the Ordinary First Refusal Adjustment Period the Company will give written notice (the "First Refusal Expiration Notice") to the Selling Shareholder specifying either (i) that all of the Offered Shares was subscribed by the Series A Holders and/or Ordinary Holders exercising their rights of first refusal or (ii) that the Series A Holders and Ordinary Holders have not subscribed all of the Offered Shares in which case the First Refusal Expiration Notice will specify the Co-Sale Pro-Rata Portion (as defined below) of the remaining Offered Shares for the purpose of their co-sale rights described in Section 4.4 below.
               (e) Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Offered Shares to be purchased by the Series A Holders and/or Ordinary Holders exercising their right of first refusal will be the price set forth in the Transfer Notice, but will be payable as set forth in this Section 4.3(f). If the purchase price in the Transfer Notice includes consideration other than cash, the cash equivalent value of the non-cash consideration will be determined by the Board in good faith, which determination will be binding upon the Ordinary Holders, Series A Holders and the Selling Shareholder, absent fraud or error.
               (f) Payment. Payment of the purchase price for the Offered Shares purchased by the Series A Holders and/or Ordinary Holders shall be made within ten (10) days following the date of the First Refusal Expiration Notice. Payment of the purchase price will be made by wire transfer or check as directed by the Selling Shareholder.
               (g) Rights of a Selling Shareholder. If any Series A Holder or Ordinary Holder exercises its right of first refusal to purchase the Offered Shares, then, upon the date the notice of such exercise is given by such Series A Holder or Ordinary Holder (as the case may be), the Selling Shareholder will have no further rights as a holder of such Offered Shares except the right to receive payment for such Offered Shares from such Series A Holder or Ordinary Holder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and the Selling Shareholder will forthwith cause all certificate(s) evidencing such Offered Shares to be surrendered to the Company for transfer to such Series A Holder or Ordinary Holder.
               (h) Application of Co-Sale Rights. If the Series A Holders and/or Ordinary Holders have not elected to purchase all of the Offered Shares, then the sale of the remaining Offered Shares will become subject to the co-sale rights set forth in Section 4.4 below.
          4.4 Co-Sale Right. To the extent that the Series A Holders and/or Ordinary Holders have not exercised right of first refusal with respect to any or all the Offered Shares, then each Series A Holder shall have the right, exercisable upon written notice to the Selling Shareholder, the Company and each other Series A Holder (the "Co-Sale

18


 
Notice") within twenty (20) days after receipt of the First Refusal Expiration Notice (the "Co-Sale Right Period"), to participate in such sale of the Offered Shares on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Transfer Notice. The Co-Sale Notice shall set forth the number of Company securities (on both an absolute and as-converted to Ordinary Shares basis) that such participating Series A Holder wishes to include in such sale or transfer, which amount shall not exceed the Co-Sale Pro Rata Portion (as defined below) of such Series A Holder. To the extent one or more of the Series A Holders exercise such right of participation in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth below, the number of Restricted Shares that the Selling Shareholder may sell in the transaction shall be correspondingly reduced. The co-sale right of each Series A Holder shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:
               (a) Co-Sale Pro Rata Portion. Each Series A Holder may sell all or any part of that number of Ordinary Shares held by it that is equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the aggregate number of the Offered Shares subject to the co-sale right hereunder by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Ordinary Shares (on an as-converted basis) owned by the Series A Holder at the time of the sale or transfer and the denominator of which is the total combined number of Ordinary Shares (on an as-converted basis) at the time owned by all Series A Holders and the Selling Shareholder ("Co-Sale Pro Rata Portion"). To the extent that any Series A Holder does not participate in the sale to the full extent of its Co-Sale Pro Rata Portion, the Selling Shareholder and the participating Series A Holders shall, within five (5) days after the end of such Co-Sale Right Period, make such adjustments to the Co-Sale Pro Rata Portion of each participating Series A Holder so that any remaining Offered Shares may be allocated to other participating Series A Holders on a pro rata basis.
               (b) Transferred Shares. Each participating Series A Holder shall effect its participation in the sale by promptly delivering to the Selling Shareholder for transfer to the prospective purchaser one or more certificates, properly endorsed for transfer, which represent:
                    (i) the number of Ordinary Shares which such Series A Holder elects to sell;
                    (ii) that number of Series A Shares which is at such time convertible into the number of Ordinary Shares that such Series A Holder elects to sell; provided in such case that, if the prospective purchaser objects to the delivery of Series A Shares in lieu of Ordinary Shares, such Series A Holder shall convert such Series A Shares into Ordinary Shares and deliver Ordinary Shares as provided in Subsection 4.4(b)(i) above. The Company agrees to make any such conversion concurrent with the actual transfer of such shares to the purchaser; or
                    (iii) or a combination of the above.
               (c) Payment to Series A Holders. The share certificate or certificates that the participating Series A Holder delivers to the Selling Shareholder pursuant to Section 4.4(b) shall be transferred to the prospective purchaser in consummation of the sale of the Restricted Shares pursuant to the terms and conditions specified in the Transfer Notice, and the Selling Shareholder shall concurrently therewith remit to such Series A Holder that portion of the sale proceeds to which such Series A Holder is entitled by reason

19


 
of its participation in such sale. To the extent that any prospective purchaser or purchasers prohibits such assignment or otherwise refuses to purchase any shares or other securities from a Series A Holder exercising its co-sale right hereunder, the Selling Shareholder shall not sell to such prospective purchaser or purchasers any Restricted Shares unless and until, simultaneously with such sale, the Selling Shareholder shall purchase such shares or other securities from such Series A Holder.
          4.5 Right to Transfer. To the extent the Series A Holders and/or the other Ordinary Holders do not elect to purchase, or to participate in the sale of, the Restricted Shares subject to the Transfer Notice in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, as the case may be, the Selling Shareholder may, not later than one hundred and twenty (120) days following delivery to the Company, each of the other Ordinary Holders and each of the Series A Holders of the Transfer Notice, conclude a transfer of the Restricted Shares covered by the Transfer Notice and not elected to be purchased by the Series A Holders and/or the other Ordinary Holders, which in each case shall be on substantially the same terms and conditions as those described in the Transfer Notice. Any proposed transfer on terms and conditions which are materially different from those described in the Transfer Notice, as well as any subsequent proposed transfer of any Restricted Shares by the Selling Shareholder, shall again be subject to the right of first refusal and the co-sale right of the Series A Holders and, if applicable, the other Ordinary Holders and shall require compliance by the Selling Shareholder with the procedures described in Section 4.3 and Section 4.4 of this Agreement.
          4.6 Exempt Transfers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the right of first refusal and co-sale rights of the Series A Holders and/or the Ordinary Holders shall not apply to (a) any sale or transfer of Ordinary Shares to the Company pursuant to a repurchase right or right of first refusal held by the Company in the event of a termination of employment or consulting relationship; or (b) any transfer to the parents, children or spouse, or to trusts for the benefit of such persons, of any Founder for bona fide estate planning purposes; or (c) any sale or transfer of Ordinary Shares by Valuetrue Investments Limited (each transferee pursuant to the foregoing clauses (a), (b) and (c), a "Permitted Transferee"); provided that adequate documentation therefor is provided to the Investors to their satisfaction and that any such Permitted Transferee agrees in writing to be bound by this Agreement in place of the relevant transferor; provided, further, that such transferor shall remain liable for any breach by such Permitted Transferee of any provision hereunder.
          4.7 Prohibited Transfers.
               (a) Except for transfers by the Ordinary Holders to Permitted Transferees as provided in Section 4.6 above, none of the Ordinary Holders or the Permitted Transferees shall, without the prior written consent of holders of a majority of Series A Shares and their permitted transferees, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate, mortgage, encumber or otherwise dispose through one or a series of transactions of any Company securities now held by him to any person any time prior to the Qualified Public Offering; provided that during such period each Existing Shareholder controlled by the Founders may sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of, up to an aggregate of ten percent (10%) of the issued outstanding Ordinary Shares held by such Existing Shareholder as of the date hereof; provided further, that any such sale, transfer or disposition shall nevertheless be subject to the right of first refusal, and co-sale rights of the Company and the Series A Holders under Sections 4.3, 4.4 and 4.5 above.

20


 
               (b) Any attempt by a party to sell or transfer Restricted Shares or Series A Shares in violation of this Section 4 shall be void and the Company hereby agrees it will not effect such a transfer nor will it treat any alleged transferee as the holder of such shares without the written consent of holders of a majority of Series A Shares.
          4.8 Legend.
               (a) Each certificate representing the Restricted Shares shall be endorsed with the following legend:
"THE SALE, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER SET FORTH IN A SHAREHOLDERS AGREEMENT, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY."
               (b) Each party agrees that the Company may instruct its transfer agent to impose transfer restrictions on the shares represented by certificates bearing the legend referred to in Section 4.8(a) above to enforce the provisions of this Agreement and the Company agrees to promptly do so. The legend shall be removed upon termination of the provisions of this Section 4.
          4.9 Restriction on Indirect Transfers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, without the prior written approval of holders of at least a majority of the Series A Shares:
               (a) Each of the Founders shall not, and shall use his best efforts to cause any shareholder of any Existing Shareholder not to, directly or indirectly, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate, mortgage, encumber or otherwise dispose through one or a series of transactions any equity interest held, directly or indirectly, by such Founder and/or shareholder in such Existing Shareholder to any person or entity other than one that is solely owned by such Founder and/or shareholder;
               (b) Each Existing Shareholder shall not, and each of the Founders shall use his best efforts to cause such Existing Shareholder not to, issue to any person any equity securities of such Existing Shareholder or any options or warrants for, or any other securities exchangeable for or convertible into, such equity securities of such Existing Shareholder; and
               (c) Notwithstanding above, the restrictions under this Section 4.9 shall not apply to (i) any transfers or issuances with respect to the equity interest in Valuetrue Investments Limited; and (ii) any transfers or issuances to the parents, children or spouse of any Founder and/or any shareholder of an Existing Shareholder occurring after the date hereof with respect to the equity interest in any Existing Shareholder which do not exceed twenty percent (20%) of the capital of such Existing Shareholder at any time in the aggregate.

21


 
               (a) If any Series A Holder (the "Selling Series A Holder") proposes to sell or transfer to its permitted assigns other than its affiliated funds any Series A Shares held by it, then the Selling Series A Holder shall promptly give written notice (the "Series A Transfer Notice") to the Company prior to such sale or transfer. The Series A Transfer Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed sale or transfer including, without limitation, the number of Series A Shares to be sold or transferred (the "Offered Series A Shares"), the nature of such sale or transfer, the consideration to be paid, and the name and address of each prospective purchaser or transferee.

               (c) To the extent the Company does not elect to purchase the Series A Shares subject to the Series A Transfer Notice in accordance with the provisions above, the Selling Series A Holder may, not later than one hundred and twenty (120) days following delivery to the Company of the Series A Transfer Notice, conclude a transfer of the Series A Shares covered by the Series A Transfer Notice and not elected to be purchased by the Company, which shall be on substantially the same terms and conditions as those described in the Series A Transfer Notice. Any proposed transfer on terms and conditions which are materially different from those described in the Series A Transfer Notice, as well as any subsequent proposed transfer of any Series A Shares by the Selling Series A Holder, shall again be subject to the right of first refusal of the Company and shall require compliance by the Selling Series A Shareholder with the procedures described in this Section 4.10.
               (d) Without the approval of the Board of the Company, the Series A Holders may not transfer any Series A Shares to any competitor of the Company. In case of a transfer of any Series A Shares by a Series A Holder to its permitted assignees, such Series A Holder shall have the obligation to notify the permitted assignee of such restriction that Series A Holders may not transfer any Series A Shares to any competitor of the Company. For the purpose of this Section 4.10, a "competitor" of the Company shall mean any of the entities whose business or product competes against that of the Company and its subsidiaries (including the Subsidiaries).

RECITALS:
     A. The business and affairs of the Company shall be managed by or under the direction of its board of directors.
     B. Indemnitee is a director of the Company and his/her willingness to serve in such capacity is predicated, in substantial part, upon the Company's willingness to indemnify him/her in accordance with the principles reflected above, to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the British Virgin Islands, and upon the other undertakings set forth in this Agreement.
     C. Therefore, in recognition of the need to provide Indemnitee with substantial protection against personal liability, in order to procure Indemnitee's continued service as a director of the Company and to enhance Indemnitee's ability to serve the Company in an effective manner, and in order to provide such protection pursuant to express contract rights (intended to be enforceable irrespective of, among other things, any amendment to the Company's Memorandum and Articles of Association (collectively, the "Constituent Documents"), any change in the composition of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") or any change-in-control or business combination transaction relating to the Company), the Company wishes to provide in this Agreement for the indemnification of and the payment of Expenses (as defined in Section 1(g)) to Indemnitee as set forth in this Agreement and for the continued coverage of Indemnitee under the Company's directors' and officers' liability insurance policies.
     D. In light of the considerations referred to in the preceding recitals, it is the Company's intention and desire that the provisions of this Agreement be construed liberally, subject to their express terms, to maximize the protections to be provided to Indemnitee hereunder.
AGREEMENT:

               (ii) approval by the stockholders of the Company of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company.
          (b) "Incumbent Directors" means the individuals who, as of the date hereof, are Directors of the Company and any individual becoming a Director subsequent to the date hereof whose election shall be pursuant to the Constituent Documents of the Company.

          (d) "Voting Stock" means securities entitled to vote under the Constituent Documents of the Company.

 


 
          (e) "Claim" means (i) any threatened, asserted, pending or completed claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative, investigative or other, and whether made pursuant to federal, state or other law; and (ii) any inquiry or investigation, whether made, instituted or conducted by the Company or any other party, including without limitation any federal, state or other governmental entity, that Indemnitee reasonably determines might lead to the institution of any such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding.
          (f) "Disinterested Director" means a director of the Company who is not and was not a party to the Claim in respect of which indemnification is sought by Indemnitee.
          (g) "Expenses" means reasonable attorneys' and experts' fees and expenses and all other reasonable costs and expenses payable by the Indemnitee in connection with investigating, defending, being a witness in or participating in (including on appeal), or preparing to investigate, defend, be a witness in or participate in (including on appeal), any Claim.
          (h) "Indemnifiable Claim" means any Claim based upon, arising out of or resulting from (i) any actual, alleged or suspected act or failure to act by Indemnitee in his or her capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or as a director, officer, employee, member, manager, trustee or agent of any other corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other entity or enterprise, whether or not for profit, as to which Indemnitee is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee, member, manager, trustee or agent, (ii) any actual, alleged or suspected act or failure to act by Indemnitee in respect of any business, transaction, communication, filing, disclosure or other activity of the Company or any other entity or enterprise referred to in clause (i) of this sentence, or (iii) Indemnitee's status as a current or former director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or as a current or former director, officer, employee, member, manager, trustee or agent of the Company or any other entity or enterprise referred to in clause (i) of this sentence or any actual, alleged or suspected act or failure to act by Indemnitee in connection with any obligation or restriction imposed upon Indemnitee by reason of such status, provided that "Indemnifiable Claim" shall not include any Claim based upon, arising out of or resulting from Indemnitee's fraud, gross negligence and willful default.
          (i) "Indemnifiable Losses" means any and all Losses relating to, arising out of or resulting from any Indemnifiable Claim.
          (j) "Independent Counsel" means a law firm, or a member of a law firm, that is experienced in matters of corporation law and neither presently is, nor in the past five years has been, retained to represent: (i) the Company or Indemnitee in any matter material to either such party (other than with respect to matters concerning the Indemnitee under this Agreement, or of other indemnitees under similar indemnification agreements), or (ii) any other party to the Indemnifiable Claim giving rise to a claim for indemnification hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term "Independent Counsel" shall not include any person who, under the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing, would have a conflict of interest in representing either the Company or Indemnitee in an action to determine Indemnitee's rights under this Agreement.
          (k) "Losses" means any and all damages, losses, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties (whether civil, criminal or other) and reasonable amounts paid in settlement, including without limitation all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of any of the foregoing.
     2. Indemnification Obligation. Subject to Section 7, the Company shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Indemnitee, to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the British Virgin Islands in effect on the date hereof or as such laws may from time to time hereafter be amended to increase the scope of such permitted indemnification, against any and all Indemnifiable Claims and Indemnifiable Losses; provided, however, that, except as provided in Sections 5 and 20, Indemnitee shall not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement in connection with any Claim initiated by Indemnitee against the Company or any director or officer of the Company unless the Company has joined in or consented to the initiation of such Claim.
     3. Payment of Expenses.
          (a) Subject to clause 3(b) below, Indemnitee shall have the right to request the Company, prior to the final disposition of any Indemnifiable Claim, to pay any and all Expenses relating to any Indemnifiable Claim.
          (b) The Indemnitee shall send to the Company any invoice, bill or other document or evidence under which any Expenses are or will be payable by the indemnitee ("Invoice"), and the Company shall, within five business

2


 
days after receipt of such Invoice or within such time as required by such Invoice, whichever is earlier, pay such Expenses on behalf of Indemnitee directly to the issuer of such Invoice requesting for payment provided that Indemnitee shall repay, without interest and within five business days of the final disposition, any amounts actually paid by the Company under this clause if any Claim is determined not to be an Indemnifiable Claim.
     4. Indemnification for Additional Expenses. The Company shall also indemnify the Indemnitee against and, shall pay, pursuant to the request of the Indemnitee made in accordance with clause 3(b), any Expenses in connection with any Claim by Indemnitee for (a) indemnification or payment of Expenses by the Company under any provision of this Agreement, or under any other agreement or provision of the Constituent Documents now or hereafter in effect relating to Indemnifiable Claims, and/or (b) recovery under any directors' and officers' liability insurance policies maintained by the Company, regardless in each case of whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification, payment or insurance recovery, as the case may be.
     5. Partial Indemnity. If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some or a portion of any Indemnifiable Loss but not for all of the total amount thereof, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion thereof to which Indemnitee is entitled.
     6. Procedure for Notification. To obtain indemnification under this Agreement in respect of an Indemnifiable Claim or Indemnifiable Loss, Indemnitee shall submit to the Company a written request therefor, including a brief description (based upon information then available to Indemnitee) of such Indemnifiable Claim or Indemnifiable Loss. If, at the time of the receipt of such request, the Company has directors' and officers' liability insurance in effect under which coverage for such Indemnifiable Claim or Indemnifiable Loss is potentially available, the Company shall give written notice of such Indemnifiable Claim or Indemnifiable Loss to the applicable insurers as soon as reasonably practicable in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable policies. The Company shall provide to Indemnitee a copy of such notice delivered to the applicable insurers, and copies of all subsequent correspondence between the Company and such insurers regarding the Indemnifiable Claim or Indemnifiable Loss, in each case reasonably concurrently with the delivery or receipt thereof by the Company. The failure by Indemnitee to timely notify the Company of any Indemnifiable Claim or Indemnifiable Loss shall not relieve the Company from any liability hereunder unless, and only to the extent that, the Company did not otherwise learn of such Indemnifiable Claim or Indemnifiable Loss and such failure results in forfeiture by the Company of substantial defenses, rights or insurance coverage.
     7. Determination of Right to Indemnification.
          (a) To the extent that Indemnitee shall have been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any Indemnifiable Claim or any portion thereof or in defense of any issue or matter therein, including without limitation dismissal without prejudice, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Indemnifiable Losses relating to such Indemnifiable Claim in accordance with Section 2 and no Standard of Conduct Determination (as defined in Section 7(b)) shall be required.
          (b) To the extent that the provisions of Section 7(a) are inapplicable to an Indemnifiable Claim that shall have been finally disposed of, any determination of whether Indemnitee has satisfied any applicable standard of conduct under any applicable law that is a legally required condition to indemnification of Indemnitee hereunder against Indemnifiable Losses relating to such Indemnifiable Claim (a"Standard of Conduct Determination") shall be made as follows: (i) unless a Change of Control has occurred, or (A) by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even if less than a quorum of the Board, (B) if there are no such Disinterested Directors, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion addressed to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee; and (ii) if a Change in Control shall has occurred by Independent Counsel in a written opinion addressed to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless Indemnitee against and shall, pursuant to the request of the Indemnitee made in accordance with clause 3(b), pay any and all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' and experts' fees and expenses) payable by Indemnitee in cooperating with the person or persons making such Standard of Conduct Determination.
          (c) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause any Standard of Conduct Determination required under Section 7(b) to be made as promptly as practicable. If the person or persons determined under Section 7 to make the Standard of Conduct Determination shall not have made a determination within 30 days after the later of (A) receipt by the Company of written notice from Indemnitee advising the Company of the final disposition

3


 
of the applicable Indemnifiable Claim (the date of such receipt being the "Notification Date") and (B) the selection of an Independent Counsel, if such determination is to be made by Independent Counsel, then Indemnitee shall be deemed to have satisfied the applicable standard of conduct; provided that such 30-day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed an additional 30 days, if the person or persons making such determination in good faith requires such additional time to obtain or evaluate information relating thereto.
          (d) If (i) Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 7(a), (ii) no determination of whether Indemnitee has satisfied any applicable standard of conduct under the applicable law is a legally required condition to indemnification of Indemnitee hereunder against any Indemnifiable Losses, or (iii) Indemnitee has been determined or deemed pursuant to Section 7(b) or (c) to have satisfied any applicable standard of conduct under the applicable law which is a legally required condition to indemnification of Indemnitee then the Company shall pay to Indemnitee, within five business days after the later of (x) the expiry of the 30-day period provided in Section 7(c) (as extended in accordance with such Section) and (y) the earliest date on which the applicable criterion specified in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) is satisfied, an amount equal to such Indemnifiable Losses.
          (e) If a Standard of Conduct Determination is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 7(b)(i), the Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board of Directors, and the Company shall give written notice to Indemnitee advising him or her of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. If a Standard of Conduct Determination is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 7(b)(ii), the Independent Counsel shall be selected by Indemnitee, and Indemnitee shall give written notice to the Company advising it of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. In either case, Indemnitee or the Company, as applicable, may, within five business days after receiving written notice of selection from the other, deliver to the other a written objection to such selection; provided, however, that such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not satisfy the criteria set forth in the definition of "Independent Counsel" in Section 1(h), and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. Absent a proper and timely objection, the person or firm so selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If such written objection is properly and timely made and substantiated, (i) the Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such objection is withdrawn or a court has determined that such objection is without merit and (ii) the non-objecting party may, at its option, select an alternative Independent Counsel and give written notice to the other party advising such other party of the identity of the alternative Independent Counsel so selected, in which case the provisions of the two immediately preceding sentences and clause (i) of this sentence shall apply to such subsequent selection and notice. If applicable, the provisions of clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence shall apply to successive alternative selections. If no Independent Counsel that is permitted under the foregoing provisions of this Section 7(e) to make the Standard of Conduct Determination shall have been selected within 30 days after the Company gives its initial notice pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 7(e) or Indemnitee gives its initial notice pursuant to the second sentence of this Section 7(e), as the case may be, either the Company or Indemnitee may initiate arbitration pursuant to Section 17 below for resolution of any objection which shall have been made by the Company or Indemnitee to the other's selection of Independent Counsel and/or for the appointment as Independent Counsel of a person selected pursuant to such arbitration, and the person or firm with respect to whom all objections are so resolved or the person or firm so appointed will act as Independent Counsel. In all events, the Company shall pay all of the reasonable fees and expenses of the Independent Counsel incurred in connection with the Independent Counsel's determination pursuant to Section 7(b).
     8. Presumption of Entitlement. In making any Standard of Conduct Determination, the person or persons making such determination shall presume that Indemnitee has satisfied the applicable standard of conduct, and the Company may overcome such presumption only by its adducing clear and convincing evidence to the contrary. Any Standard of Conduct Determination that is adverse to Indemnitee may be challenged by the Indemnitee pursuant to arbitration under Section 17. No determination by the Company (including by its directors or any Independent Counsel) that Indemnitee has not satisfied any applicable standard of conduct shall be a defense to any Claim by Indemnitee for indemnification of Expenses by the Company hereunder or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met any applicable standard of conduct.
     9. No Other Presumption. For purposes of this Agreement, the termination of any Claim by judgment, order, settlement (whether with or without court approval) or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, will not create a presumption that Indemnitee did not meet any applicable standard of conduct or that indemnification hereunder is otherwise not permitted.

4


 
     10. Non-Exclusivity. The rights of Indemnitee hereunder will be in addition to any other rights Indemnitee may have under the Constituent Documents, or the substantive laws of the Company's jurisdiction of incorporation, any other contract or otherwise (collectively, "Other Indemnify Provisions"); provided, however, that (a) to the extent that Indemnitee otherwise would have any greater right to indemnification under any Other Indemnity Provision, Indemnitee will be deemed to have such greater right hereunder and (b) to the extent that any change is made to any Other Indemnity Provision which permits any greater right to indemnification than that provided under this Agreement as of the date hereof, Indemnitee will be deemed to have such greater right hereunder. The Company will not adopt any amendment to any of the Constituent Documents the effect of which would be to deny, diminish or encumber Indemnitee's right to indemnification under this Agreement or any Other Indemnity Provision.
     11. Liability Insurance and Funding. For the duration of Indemnitee's service as a director and/or officer of the Company, and thereafter for so long as Indemnitee shall be subject to any pending or possible Indemnifiable Claim, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts (taking into account the scope and amount of coverage available relative to the cost thereof) to cause to be maintained in effect policies of directors' and officers' liability insurance providing coverage for directors and/or officers of the Company that is at least substantially comparable in scope and amount to that provided by the Company's current policies of directors' and officers' liability insurance. The Company shall provide Indemnitee with a copy of all directors' and officers' liability insurance applications, binders, policies, declarations, endorsements and other related materials, and shall provide Indemnitee with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the same. Without limiting the generality or effect of the two immediately preceding sentences, the Company shall not discontinue or significantly reduce the scope or amount of coverage from one policy period to the next (i) without the prior approval thereof by a majority vote of the Incumbent Directors, even if less than a quorum, or (ii) if at the time that any such discontinuation or significant reduction in the scope or amount of coverage is proposed there are no Incumbent Directors, without the prior written consent of Indemnitee (which Consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). In all policies of directors' and officers' liability insurance obtained by the Company, Indemnitee shall be named as an insured in such a manner as to provide Indemnitee the same rights and benefits, subject to the same limitations, as are accorded to the Company's directors and officers most favorably insured by such policy. The Company may, but shall not be required to, create a trust fund, grant a security interest or use other means, including without limitation a letter of credit, to ensure the payment of such amounts as may be necessary to satisfy its obligations to indemnify and pay expenses pursuant to this Agreement.
     12. Subrogation. In the event of payment under this Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the related rights of recovery of Indemnitee against other persons or entities (other than Indemnitee's successors), including any entity or enterprise referred to in clause (i) of the definition of "Indemnifiable Claim" in Section 1(f). Indemnitee shall execute all papers reasonably required to evidence such rights (all of Indemnitee's reasonable Expenses, including attorneys' fees and charges, related thereto paid by the Company under this Agreement).
     13. No Duplication of Payments. The Company shall not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment to Indemnitee in respect of any Indemnifiable Losses to the extent Indemnitee has otherwise actually received payment under any insurance policy, the Constituent Documents and Other Indemnity Provisions or otherwise.
     14. Defense of Claims. The Company shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Indemnifiable Claim or to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee; provided that if Indemnitee believes, after consultation with counsel selected by Indemnitee, that (a) the use of counsel chosen by the Company to represent Indemnitee would present such counsel with an actual or potential conflict, (b) the named parties in any such Indemnifiable Claim (including any impleaded parties) include both the Company and Indemnitee and that there may be one or more legal defenses available to Indemnitee that are different from or in addition to those available to the Company, or (c) any such representation by such counsel would be precluded under the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing, then Indemnitee shall be entitled to retain separate counsel (but not more than one law firm plus, if applicable, local counsel in respect of any particular Indemnifiable Claim) at the Company's expense. The Company shall not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement for any amounts paid in settlement of any threatened or pending Indemnifiable Claim effected without the Company's prior written consent. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, effect any settlement of any threatened or pending Indemnifiable Claim which the Indemnitee is or could have been a party unless such settlement solely involves the payment of money and includes a complete and unconditional release of the Indemnitee from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such Indemnifiable Claim. Neither the Company nor Indemnitee shall unreasonably withhold its consent to any proposed

5


 
settlement; provided that Indemnitee may withhold consent to any settlement that does not provide a complete and unconditional release of Indemnitee.
     15. Successors and Binding Agreement. (a) The Company shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company, by agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Indemnitee and his or her counsel, expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and any successor to the Company, including without limitation any person acquiring directly or indirectly all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company whether by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise (and such successor will thereafter be deemed the "Company" for purposes of this Agreement), but shall not otherwise be assignable or delegatable by the Company.
          (b) This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Indemnitee's personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, heirs, distributees, legatees and other successors.
          (c) This Agreement is personal in nature and neither of the parties hereto shall, without the consent of the other, assign or delegate this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder except as expressly provided in Sections 15(a) and 15(b). Without limiting the generality or effect of the foregoing, Indemnitee's right to receive payments hereunder shall not be assignable, whether by pledge, creation of a security interest or otherwise, other than by a transfer by the Indemnitee's will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and, in the event of any attempted assignment or transfer contrary to this Section 15(c), the Company shall have no liability to pay any amount so attempted to be assigned or transferred.
     16. Notices. For all purposes of this Agreement, all communications, including without limitation notices, consents, requests or approvals, required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when hand delivered or dispatched by electronic facsimile transmission (with receipt thereof orally confirmed), or five business days after having been mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid or one business day after having been sent for next-day delivery by an internationally recognized overnight courier service, addressed to the Company (to the attention of the Secretary of the Company) and to Indemnitee at the addresses shown on the signature page hereto, or to such other address as any party may have furnished to the other in writing and in accordance herewith, except that notices of changes of address will be effective only upon receipt.
     17. Governing Law. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of California. The Company and Indemnitee each hereby irrevocably consent to the arbitration of the Hong Kong International Arbitration Center for all purposes in connection with any action or proceeding which arises out of or relates to this Agreement and agree that any action instituted under this Agreement shall be brought only for arbitration before the Hong Kong International Arbitration Center. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules (the "UNCITRAL Rules") in effect, which rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this Section 17. The arbitration tribunal shall consist of three arbitrators to be appointed according to the UNCITRAL Rules. The language of the arbitration shall be English.
     18. Validity. If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any provision hereof to any person or circumstance is held invalid, unenforceable or otherwise illegal, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to any other person or circumstance shall not be affected, and the provision so held to be invalid, unenforceable or otherwise illegal shall be reformed to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to make it enforceable, valid or legal. In the event that any court or other adjudicative body shall decline to reform any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, unenforceable or otherwise illegal as contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence, the parties thereto shall take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate to replace the provision so held to be invalid, unenforceable or otherwise illegal with one or more alternative provisions that effectuate the purpose and intent of the original provisions of this Agreement as fully as possible without being invalid, unenforceable or otherwise illegal.
     19. Miscellaneous. No provision of this Agreement may be waived, modified or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing signed by Indemnitee and the Company. No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto or compliance with any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions

6


 
at the same or at any prior or subsequent time. No agreements or representations, oral or otherwise, expressed or implied with respect to the subject matter hereof have been made by either party that are not set forth expressly in this Agreement. References to Sections are to references to Sections of this Agreement.
     20. Legal Fees and Expenses. It is the intent of the Company that Indemnitee not be required to incur legal fees and or other Expenses associated with the interpretation, enforcement or defense of Indemnitee's rights under this Agreement by litigation or otherwise because the cost and expense thereof would substantially detract from the benefits intended to be extended to Indemnitee hereunder. Accordingly, without limiting the generality or effect of any other provision hereof, if it should appear to Indemnitee that the Company has failed to comply with any of its obligations under this Agreement or in the event that the Company or any other person takes of threatens to take any action to declare this Agreement void or unenforceable, or institutes any litigation or other action or proceeding designed to deny, or to recover from, Indemnitee the benefits provided or intended to be provided to Indemnitee hereunder, the Company irrevocably authorizes the Indemnitee from time to time to retain counsel of Indemnitee's choice, at the expense of the Company as hereafter provided, to advise and represent Indemnitee in connection with any such interpretation, enforcement or defense, including without limitation the initiation or defense of any litigation or other legal action, whether by or against the Company or any director, officer, stockholder or other person affiliated with the Company, in any jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any existing or prior attorney-client relationship between the Company and such counsel, the Company irrevocably consents to Indemnitee's entering into an attorney-client relationship with such counsel, and in that connection the Company and Indemnitee agree that a confidential relationship shall exist between Indemnitee and such counsel. Without respect to whether Indemnitee prevails, in whole or in part, in connection with any of the foregoing, the Company will pay and be solely financially responsible for any and all attorneys' and related fees and expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any of the foregoing.
     21. Certain Interpretive Matters. No provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in favor of, or against, either of the parties hereto by reason of the extent to which any such party or its counsel participated in the drafting thereof or by reason of the extent to which any such provision is inconsistent with any prior draft hereof or thereof.
     22. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
