The Advisor may not sell these shares while the Advisory Agreement is in effect, although the Advisor may transfer such shares to Affiliates. The restrictions included above shall not apply to any Equity Shares, other than the Equity Shares acquired through the Initial Investment, acquired by the Advisor or its Affiliates. The Advisor shall not vote any Equity Shares it now owns, or hereafter acquires, in any vote for the removal of Directors or any vote regarding the approval or termination of any contract with the Advisor or any of its Affiliates.

Additional Investment The Investor commits to invest in additional Class A Shares or American depositary shares representing Class A Shares if and when the Company conducts an IPO, of an amount of no more than the Purchase Price. The Company and the lead underwriters shall have the right to accept or not accept such investment and, if so accepted, to determine whether to accept the investment as part of the IPO or as a private placement. Neither the Company nor any underwriter for the Company’s IPO is under any obligation or commitment to issue any shares to the Investor in the IPO. Any such issuance will be decided by the Company and the lead underwriters for the IPO and must be in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations and rules.

The terms of the Additional Notes and the Additional Warrants shall be identical to the terms of the Notes and Warrants, as the case may be, to be issued on the Closing Date. The Common Stock underlying the Additional Notes and the Additional Warrants shall be Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) and shall be included in the Registration Statement to be filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement.
Early Resolution Conference This Agreement is understood to be clear and enforceable as written and is executed by both parties on that basis. However, should Executive later challenge any provision as unclear, unenforceable or inapplicable to any competitive activity that Executive intends to engage in, Executive will first notify the Company in writing and meet with a Company representative and a neutral mediator (if the Company elects to retain one at its expense) to discuss resolution of any disputes between the parties. Executive will provide this notification at least fourteen (14) days before Executive engages in any activity on behalf of a Competing Business or engages in other activity that could foreseeably fall within a questioned restriction. The failure to comply with this requirement shall waive Executive’s right to challenge the reasonable scope, clarity, applicability, or enforceability of the Agreement and its restrictions at a later time. All rights of both parties will be preserved if the Early Resolution Conference requirement is complied with even if no agreement is reached in the conference.

The primary function of the Steering Committee is to ensure the ongoing communication between the Parties and discuss and resolve any issues arising under this Agreement. In addition to the primary function described above, the Steering Committee shall also take on the following responsibilities:
