SECTION 9

INDEMNITY

9.1 Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Laws, each Warrantor, jointly and severally (other than Section ‎9.1(f)), covenants and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and its affiliates, limited partners, members, shareholders, employees, agents and representatives (each an “Indemnified Person”), from and against any and all losses, claims, Actions, damages, Liabilities and expenses (joint or several), including attorneys’ fees and disbursements and all other expenses incurred in investigating, preparing, compromising or defending against any such litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever and all amounts paid in settlement of any such claim or litigation, to which any of the Indemnified Persons may become subject (“Losses”), as incurred, insofar as such Losses arise out of or are based upon:

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representations or warranties made by the Warrantors in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document;

(b) any failure of any Warrantor to perform any of its obligations under, or comply with any provisions of, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document;

(c) any delay in payment or underpayment of, or any failure to pay, welfare funds, social benefits, medical benefits, social insurance, housing funds, retirement benefits, pensions or the like on or before the Closing;

(d) any Loss attributable to any failure of any Warrantor to comply with Applicable Laws or obtain any governmental approval, license or permit necessary to carry out the business of the Group Companies on or prior to the Closing Date;

(e) any Loss attributable to (i) any Taxes (or the non-payment thereof) of any Group Company for all taxable periods ending on or before the Closing and the portion through the end of the Closing for any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing, and (ii) all Liability for any Taxes of any other person imposed by any Governmental Authority or instrumentality on any Group Company as a transferee, successor, or withholding agent in connection with an event or transaction occurring before the Closing; provided that the Warrantors shall not be liable for the Loss arising as a result of (i) a provision or reserve in respect of the Liability made in the Financial Statements being insufficient by reason of any increase in tax rates announced after the Closing with retrospective effect, and (ii) any law applicable to such Group Company, which comes into force after the Closing with retroactive effect;

(f) any Loss attributable to any additional Taxes caused by the Tax base loss (the “Tax Base Loss”) if (i) after the completion of the Restructuring, the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates disposes or transfers its shares in the Company or is deemed to have disposed or transferred its shares under the PRC Tax Applicable Laws or by the PRC Tax Governmental Authority and (ii) the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates is subject to any PRC Taxes on the capital gain, whether realized or deemed to be realized by the PRC Tax Governmental Authority, from such share disposal or transfer (the Parties agree that (A) the Tax Base Loss would result from the loss of the opportunity of counting Linzhi’s original investment cost in Domestic Company I into the tax base of the disposal of the Shares by the Purchaser or its Affiliate, (B) the amount of the additional Tax resulting from the Tax Base Loss that the Company shall indemnify the Purchaser and its Affiliates shall equal to 10% of the original investment cost of Linzhi in Domestic Company I, and (C) the payment of the indemnity amount by the Warrantors to the Purchaser under this Section ‎9.1(f) shall occur as promptly as practicable following the relevant share disposal or transfer); provided that only the Group Companies jointly and severally covenant and agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Persons from any Losses caused by this Section ‎9.1(f); provided further that the indemnification under this Section ‎9.1(f) shall terminate upon the closing of the Qualified IPO.

If and to the extent that such indemnification is unenforceable for any reason, each Warrantor will make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of the indemnified liabilities permissible under Applicable Law. The representations and warranties set forth in Section ‎5 are not extinguished or affected by an investigation made by or on behalf of an Indemnified Party into the affairs of any Group Company or by any other event or matter. In no event shall Warrantors be obligated to indemnify an Indemnified Person for Losses resulting directly and solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person.

9.2 Procedure. Each Indemnified Person will notify each Warrantor in writing of any action against such Indemnified Person in respect of which any Warrantor is or may be obligated to provide indemnification hereunder promptly after the receipt of notice or knowledge of the commencement thereof. The failure of any Indemnified Person to notify any Warrantor shall not relieve such Warrantor from any Liability which it may have to such Indemnified Person under this Section ‎9.2 or otherwise unless the failure to so notify results in the forfeiture by such Warrantor of substantial rights and defenses and will not in any event relieve such Warrantor from any obligations other than the indemnification provided for herein. Each Warrantor will have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying Party so desires, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person. However, the Indemnified Person will have the right to retain separate counsel and to participate in the defense thereof, with the reasonable documented fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by the Warrantors if representation of such Indemnified Person by the counsel retained by the Warrantors would be, in the Indemnified Person’s view, inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Warrantors will be responsible for the expenses of such defense even if the indemnifying Party does not elect to assume such defense. None of the Warrantors may, except with the consent of the Indemnified Person, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as a term thereof the unconditional release of the Indemnified Person of all Liability in respect of such claim or litigation.

9.3 Indemnification Non-Exclusive. The foregoing indemnification provisions are in addition to, and not in derogation of, any statutory, equitable or common-law remedy any Party or Indemnified Person may otherwise have.

9.4 Restrictions on Indemnification. The amount of indemnification liability of any Founder or his FounderCo under this Section ‎9 to all Indemnified Persons shall be limited to the value of all the Shares then held by such Founder or his FounderCo; provided that in the event of (x) any intentional or willful misconduct by any Founder or his FounderCo, or (y) the incurrence of criminal liability under any applicable jurisdiction by any Founder or FounderCo, the aforesaid limitations shall not apply. For the avoidance of doubt, such Founder or FounderCo is entitled to choose the following ways to perform and assume its indemnification liabilities: (i) payment by cash, (ii) transfer of Shares held by it, or (iii) other ways permitted by Applicable Laws.

SECTION 10

MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Governing Law.

10.3 Entire Agreement. The Transaction Documents and the schedules and exhibits thereto, which are hereby expressly incorporated herein by this reference constitute the entire understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to the subjects hereof and thereof; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall be deemed to terminate or supersede the provisions of any confidentiality and nondisclosure agreements contained in any written agreements or instruments executed by the parties hereto prior to the date hereof, which agreements shall continue in full force and effect until terminated in accordance with their respective terms.

Except as may be otherwise provided herein, all notices, requests, waivers and other communications made pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be conclusively deemed to have been duly given (a) when hand delivered to the other party, upon delivery; (b) when sent by facsimile at the number set forth in Schedule D hereto, upon receipt of confirmation of error-free transmission; (c) seven (7) Business Days after deposit in the mail as air mail or certified mail, receipt requested, postage prepaid and addressed to the other party as set forth in Schedule D; or (d) three (3) Business Days after deposit with an overnight delivery service, postage prepaid, addressed to the parties as set forth in Schedule D with next Business Day delivery guaranteed, provided that the sending party receives a confirmation of delivery from the delivery service provider.

10.5 Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may be amended only with the written consent of all Parties hereto.

10.6 Delays or Omissions.

10.9 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable, then such provision shall be construed, to the extent feasible, so as to render the provision enforceable and to provide for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby on substantially the same terms as originally set forth herein, and if no feasible interpretation would save such provision, it shall be severed from the remainder of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect unless the severed provision is essential to the rights or benefits intended by the parties. In such event, the parties shall use best efforts to negotiate, in good faith, a substitute, valid and enforceable provision or agreement which most nearly effects the parties’ intent in entering into this Agreement.

10.10 Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure.

(a) Disclosure of Terms. The terms and conditions of the Transaction Documents and all exhibits and schedules attached hereto and thereto (collectively, the “Financing Terms”), including their existence, shall be considered confidential information and shall not be disclosed by any party hereto to any third party except in accordance with the provisions set forth below; provided that such confidential information shall not include any information that is in the public domain other than caused by the breach of the confidentiality obligations hereunder.

(b) Permitted Disclosures.

(c) Legally Compelled Disclosure. In the event that any party is requested or becomes legally compelled (including without limitation, pursuant to securities laws and regulations) to disclose the existence of any Transaction Document or any of the exhibits and schedules attached hereto or thereto, or any of the Financing Terms hereof in contravention of the provisions of this Section ‎10.10, such party (the “Disclosing Party”) shall provide the other parties (the “Non-Disclosing Parties”) with prompt written notice of that fact and use all reasonable efforts to seek (with the cooperation and reasonable efforts of the other parties) a protective order, confidential treatment or other appropriate remedy. In such event, the Disclosing Party shall furnish only that portion of the information which is legally required to be disclosed and shall exercise reasonable efforts to keep confidential such information to the extent reasonably requested by any Non-Disclosing Party.

(d) Other Information. The provisions of this Section ‎10.10 shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, the provisions of any separate nondisclosure agreement executed by any of the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby.

10.11 Further Assurances. Each Party shall from time to time and at all times hereafter make, do, execute, or cause or procure to be made, done and executed such further acts, deeds, conveyances, consents and assurances without further consideration, which may reasonably be required to effect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

10.12 Dispute Resolution. Any controversy or claim (each a “Dispute”) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the interpretation, breach, termination, validity or invalidity thereof, shall be referred to arbitration upon the demand of either party to the dispute with notice (the “Arbitration Notice”) to the other. The Dispute shall be settled by arbitration in Hong Kong by the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (the “HKIAC”) in accordance with the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre Administered Arbitration Rules (the “HKIAC Rules”) in force at the time when the Arbitration Notice is submitted. There shall be three (3) arbitrators. The complainant and the respondent to such dispute shall each select one arbitrator within thirty (30) days after giving or receiving the demand for arbitration (the “Selection Period”). Such arbitrators shall be freely selected, and the parties shall not be limited in their selection to any prescribed list. The chairman of the HKIAC shall select the third arbitrator. If either party to the arbitration fails to appoint an arbitrator with the Selection Period, the relevant appointment shall be made by the chairman of the HKIAC. The arbitral proceedings shall be conducted in English. To the extent that the HKIAC Rules are in conflict with the provisions of this Section ‎10.12, including the provisions concerning the appointment of the arbitrators, this Section ‎10.12 shall prevail. Each party to the arbitration shall cooperate with each other party to the arbitration in making full disclosure of and providing complete access to all information and documents requested by such other party in connection with such arbitral proceedings, subject only to any confidentiality obligations binding on such party. The award of the arbitral tribunal shall be final and binding upon the parties thereto, and the prevailing party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for enforcement of such award. Any party to the Dispute shall be entitled to seek preliminary injunctive relief, if possible, from any court of competent jurisdiction pending the constitution of the arbitral tribunal. During the course of the arbitral tribunal’s adjudication of the Dispute, this Agreement shall continue to be performed except with respect to the part in dispute and under adjudication.

10.13 Expenses. The Warrantors shall pay all of their own costs and expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The Company shall reimburse the Purchaser for all out-of-pocket documented legal, professional and other third-party fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Purchaser in connection with the conduct of its industry, legal and financial due diligence and its negotiation, preparation, execution and completion of this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents hereunder and thereunder up to a maximum of US$500,000. The Company shall reimburse the Purchaser pursuant to this Section ‎10.13 within ten (10) Business Days after receiving the reimbursement request from the Purchaser.
