3.2买方的xx和保证。各买方（无论是自己还是其他任何买方）特此向公司xx并保证，截至本协议签署之日和截止日期，如下（除非截至本协议中的特定日期，在这种情况下，截至该日期，应准确无误）：

The execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and performance by such Purchaser of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, partnership, limited liability company or similar action, as applicable, on the part of such Purchaser. Each Transaction Document to which it is a party has been duly executed by such Purchaser, and when delivered by such Purchaser in accordance with the terms hereof, will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of such Purchaser, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except: (i) as limited by general equitable principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and (iii) insofar as indemnification and contribution provisions may be limited by applicable law.

 

（a） 组织；授权。该买方是根据其成立或组建所在司法管辖区的法律正式成立或组建、有效存续且信誉良好的个人或实体，合伙有限责任公司或类似权力和权限，以达成和完成交易文件规定的交易，并以其他方式履行其在本协议项下的义务。该买方签署和交付交易文件以及履行交易文件中规定的交易均已获得所有必要的公司、合伙企业、有限责任公司或类似行动（如适用）的正式授权。其作为一方的每份交易文件均已由该买方正式签署，且在该买方根据本协议条款交付时，将构成该买方的有效且具有法律约束力的义务，可根据其条款对其强制执行，但以下情况除外：（i）受一般公平原则和适用破产、无力偿债、重组、延期偿付和一般影响债权人权利执行的其他一般适用法律，（ii）受与具体履行、禁令救济或其他公平救济的可用性相关的法律限制，以及（iii）赔偿和出资条款可能受适用法律限制。

 

(b) Understandings or Arrangements. Such Purchaser is acquiring the Shares as principal for its own account and has no direct or indirect arrangement or understandings with any other persons to distribute or regarding the distribution of such Shares (this representation and warranty not limiting such Purchaser’s right to sell the Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement or otherwise in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws). Such Purchaser is acquiring the Shares hereunder in the ordinary course of its business.

 

（b） 理解或安排。该买方以自己的名义购买股份，与任何其他人没有直接或间接的安排或谅解来分配或关于分配该等股份（该xx和保证不限制买方根据登记声明或其他适用的联邦和州证券法出售股份的权利）。该买方购买本协议项下股份的行为属于其正常业务。

 

(c) Access to Information. Such Purchaser acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to review the Transaction Documents (including all exhibits and schedules thereto) and the SEC Reports and has been afforded, (i) the opportunity to ask such questions as it has deemed necessary of, and to receive answers from, representatives of the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Shares and the merits and risks of investing in the Shares; (ii) access to information about the Company and its financial condition, results of operations, business, properties, management and prospects sufficient to enable it to evaluate its investment; and (iii) the opportunity to obtain such additional information that the Company possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the investment.

 

（c） 获取信息。该买方承认其有机会审查交易文件（包括所有附件和附表）和SEC报告，并已获得（i）向公司代表提出其认为必要的关于股份发行条款和投资股份的优缺点及风险的问题的机会；（ii）有关公司及其财务状况、经营成果、业务、财产、管理和前景的足够信息的方式，以使其能够评估其投资；以及（iii）公司拥有或可以获得的额外信息的机会，而无需付出不合理的努力或费用以做出与投资相关的明智投资决策。

(d) Certain Transactions and Confidentiality. Other than consummating the transactions contemplated hereunder, such Purchaser has not, nor has any Person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with such Purchaser, directly or indirectly executed any purchases or sales, including Short Sales, of the securities of the Company during the period commencing as of the time that such Purchaser first received a term sheet (written or oral) from the Company or any other Person representing the Company setting forth the material pricing terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder and ending immediately prior to the execution hereof. Other than to other Persons party to this Agreement or to such Purchaser’s representatives, including, without limitation, its officers, directors, partners, legal and other advisors, employees, agents and Affiliates, such Purchaser has maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms of this transaction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute a representation or warranty, or preclude any actions, with respect to locating or borrowing shares in order to effect Short Sales or similar transactions in the future.

 

（d） 某些交易和保密。除了完成本协议项下预期的交易外，该买方没有，也没有任何代表该买方或根据与该买方的任何谅解行事的人，直接或间接执行任何购买或销售，包括卖空本公司证券，自买方首次收到本公司或代表本公司的任何其他人士提供的（书面或口头）条款清单之时起至本协议签署前结束的期间内。除本协议其他方或买方代表（包括但不限于其高级管理人员、董事、合伙人、法律顾问和其他顾问、员工、代理人和关联方）外，买方已对与本交易相关的所有披露（包括本交易的存在和条款）保密。尽管有上述规定，为避免疑义，本协议中的任何内容均不构成任何xx或保证，也不排除为实现未来的卖空或类似交易而寻找或借入股份的任何行为。

 

The Company acknowledges and agrees that the representations contained in this Section 3.2 shall not modify, amend or affect such Purchaser’s right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any representations and warranties contained in any other Transaction Document or any other document or instrument executed and/or delivered in connection with this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

公司承认并同意，第3.2节中的xx不得修改，修改或影响买方依赖本协议中包含的公司xx和保证的权利，或任何其他交易文件中包含的任何xx和保证，或与本协议相关的任何其他文件或文书的签署和/或交付，或本协议预期交易的完成。

If any action shall be brought against any Purchaser Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Agreement, such Purchaser Party shall promptly notify the Company in writing, and, the Company shall have the right to assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own choosing reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser Party. Any Purchaser Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Purchaser Party except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Company in writing, (ii) the Company has failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of counsel a material conflict on any material issue between the position of the Company and the position of such Purchaser Party, in which case the Company shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one such separate counsel. The Company will not be liable to any Purchaser Party under this Agreement (y) for any settlement by a Purchaser Party effected without the Company’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (z) to the extent, but only to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or liability is attributable to any Purchaser Party’s breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in this Agreement or other Transaction Documents. The indemnification required by this Section 4.7 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or are incurred. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to any cause of action or similar right of any Purchaser Party against the Company or others and any liabilities the Company may be subject to pursuant to law.

 

4.7买方赔偿。根据第4.7节的规定，公司将赔偿并免于每位买方及其董事、高级管理人员、股东、成员、合伙人、员工和代理人（以及任何其他人员，尽管缺乏此类头衔或任何其他头衔，但其职能等同于持有此类头衔的人员），控制该买方的每个人（在《证券法》第15条和《交易法》第20条的含义内），以及该等控制人的董事、高级管理人员、股东、代理人、成员、合伙人或雇员（每个人称为“买方当事人”）受任何和所有损失、责任、义务、索赔、意外事件、损害、成本和费用的影响，包括任何此类买方当事人因严重违反本协议或其他交易文件中公司作出的任何xx、保证、契约或协议而可能遭受或招致的所有判决、和解支付金额、法院费用、合理律师费和调查费用。如果根据本协议对任何买方当事人提起任何诉讼，要求赔偿，该买方当事人应立即书面通知公司，公司有权自行选择买方当事人合理接受的律师进行辩护。任何买方当事人应有权在任何此类诉讼中聘请独立的律师并参与辩护，但此类律师的费用和开支应由该买方当事人承担，但以下情况除外：（i）公司已明确书面授权聘请该律师，（ii）公司在一 段合理的时间后未能进行辩护并聘请律师，或（iii）律师合理认为，在该诉讼中，公司的立场与买方当事人的立场之间存在重大冲突，在这种情况下，公司应负责不超过一名独立律师的合理费用和开支。公司不对本协议项下的任何买方当事人承担任何责任，如果（y）买方当事人未经公司事先书面同意（该同意不得无理拒绝或延迟）达成和解；或（z）在一定程度上，但仅限于任何买方当事人违反本协议或其他交易文件中的任何xx、保证、契约或协议而导致的损失、索赔、损害或责任。第4.7节要求的赔偿应在调查或辩护过程中，在收到账单或发生账单时，通过定期付款的方式进行。本协议中包含的免责协议应补充任何买方当事人对公司或其他人的任何诉讼理由或类似权利，以及公司依法可能承担的任何责任。

 

4.8 Listing of Ordinary Shares. The Company hereby agrees to use best efforts to maintain the listing or quotation of the Ordinary Shares on the Trading Market on which it is currently listed, and concurrently with the Closing, the Company shall apply to list or quote all of the Shares on such Trading Market and promptly secure the listing of all of the Shares on such Trading Market. The Company agrees to maintain the eligibility of the Ordinary Shares for electronic transfer through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation, including, without limitation, by timely payment of fees to the Depository Trust Company or such other established clearing corporation in connection with such electronic transfer.

4.9 Equal Treatment of Purchasers. No consideration (including any modification of any Transaction Document) shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to such Transaction Document. For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted to each Purchaser by the Company and negotiated separately by each Purchaser, and is intended for the Company to treat the Purchasers as a class and shall not in any way be construed as the Purchasers acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase, disposition or voting of Shares or otherwise.

 

4.9购买者的平等待遇。不得向任何人提供或支付对价（包括任何交易文件的任何修改），以修改或同意放弃或修改交易文件的条款，除非向该交易文件的所有各方提供相同的对价。为澄清起见，本条款构成公司授予各买方的单独权利，并由各买方单独协商，旨在使公司将买方视为一个类别，不得以任何方式解释为买方在购买、处置或投票股份或其他方面一致行动或作为一个团体。

 

4.10 Certain Transactions and Confidentiality. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that neither it nor any Affiliate acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will execute any purchases or sales, including Short Sales of any of the Company’s securities during the period commencing with the execution of this Agreement and ending at such time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.3.  Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that until such time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed by the Company pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.3, such Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of the existence and terms of this transaction and the information included in the Disclosure Schedules (other than as disclosed to its legal and other representatives).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, and notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) no Purchaser makes any representation, warranty or covenant hereby that it will not engage in effecting transactions in any securities of the Company after the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.3, (ii) no Purchaser shall be restricted or prohibited from effecting any transactions in any securities of the Company in accordance with applicable securities laws from and after the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.3 and (iii) no Purchaser shall have any duty of confidentiality or duty not to trade in the securities of the Company to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, Affiliates or agent after the issuance of the initial press release as described in Section 4.3.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Purchaser’s assets, the covenant set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Shares covered by this Agreement.

 

4.10特定交易和保密。各买方单独而非与其他买方共同承诺，其或代表其行事的任何关联方或根据与其达成的任何谅解，均不会执行任何采购或销售，包括在本协议签署之日起至根据第4.3节所述的首次新闻稿首次公开宣布本协议预期交易之日止的期间内卖空本公司的任何证券，承诺在本协议预期的交易由公司根据第4.3节所述的首次新闻稿公开披露之前，该买方将对本交易的存在和条款以及披露表中包含的信息（向其法律代表和其他代表披露的信息除外）保密，公司明确承认并同意：（i）任何买方均未在此作出任何xx、保证或承诺，即在根据第4.3节所述的初始新闻稿首次公开宣布本协议所述交易后，不会参与公司任何证券的交易，（ii）自根据第4.3节所述的首次新闻稿首次公开宣布本协议预期的交易之日起，根据适用的证券法，不得限制或禁止任何买方进行本公司任何证券的交易；（iii）任何买方均无保密义务或在第4.3节所述的首次新闻稿发布后，不向公司、其任何子公司或其各自的高级管理人员、董事、员工、关联方或代理人交易公司证券的义务。尽管有上 述规定，如果买方是一个多管理的投资工具，其中单独的投资组合经理管理该买方资产的单独部分，并且投资组合经理不直接了解管理该买方其他部分资产的投资组合管理人做出的投资决策，上述约定仅适用于作出投资决定购买本协议所涵盖股份的投资组合经理管理的部分资产。

5.5修订；弃权。本协议的任何条款不得被放弃、修改、补充或修订，除非公司和购买人签署书面文书（如有修订），根据本协议下的初始认购金额购买至少50.1%的股份权益（或在交割前，公司和各买方），或在弃权的情况下，如果任何修订、修改或弃权对买方（或买方集团）产生了不成比例的不利影响，则还应获得此类不成比例影响的买方（或卖方集团）的同意。对本协议任何条款、条件或要求的任何违约行为的弃权不应被视为未来的持续弃权，或对任何后续违约行为的放弃，或对本协议其他条款、条件和要求的弃权，任何一方以任何方式延迟或不行使本协议项下的任何权利均不得损害任何此类权利的行使。与其他买方的类似权利和义务相比，对任何买方的权利和义务造成不成比例、重大和不利影响的任何拟议修正案或弃权均应事先获得此类受不利影响的买方的书面同意。根据本第5.5款进行的任何修订对各买方、股份持有人和公司均具有约束力。

 

5.6 Headings. The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

 

5.6标题。本协议中的标题仅为方便起见，不构成本协议的一部分，不应被视为限制或影响本协议的任何规定。

 

5.7 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Purchaser (other than by merger). With the prior written consent of the Company, any Purchaser may assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement to any Person to whom such Purchaser assigns or transfers any Shares, provided that such transferee agrees in writing to be bound, with respect to the transferred Shares, by the provisions of the Transaction Documents that apply to the “Purchasers.”

 

5.7继承人和受让人。本协议对双方及其继承人和许可受让人具有约束力，并以其为受益人。未经各买方事先书面同意，公司不得转让本协议或本协议项下的任何权利或义务（并购除外）。经公司事先书面同意，任何买方可将其在本协议项下的任何或所有权利转让给该买方转让或转让任何股份的任何人，但前提是该受让人书面同意受适用于“买方”的交易文件规定的约束。

 

5.8 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, except as otherwise set forth in Section 4.7.

 

5.8无第三方受益人。本协议旨在为本协议各方及其各自继承人和许可受让人的利益服务，不为任何其他人的利益，也不可由任何其他人执行本协议的任何规定，第4.7节另有规定的除外。

5.9 Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of the Transaction Documents shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal Proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any Action or Proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such Action or Proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such Proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such Action or Proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. If any party shall commence an Action or Proceeding to enforce any provisions of the Transaction Documents, then, in addition to the obligations of the Company under Section 4.7, the prevailing party in such Action or Proceeding shall be reimbursed by the non-prevailing party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such Action or Proceeding.

 

5.9适用法律。与交易文件的解释、有效性、执行和解释有关的所有问题均应根据纽约州的内部法律进行管辖、解释和执行，不考虑法律冲突原则。各方同意，与解释相关的所有法律程序，本协议和任何其他交易文件（无论是针对本协议一方或其各自的关联方、董事、高管、股东、合伙人、成员、员工或代理人提起的）所述交易的执行和辩护应仅在纽约市的州和联邦法院开始。各方特此不可撤销地服从位于纽约市曼哈顿自治区的州和联邦法院的专属管辖权，以裁决本协议项下或与本协议相关的任何争议，或与本合同项下或本协议所述的任何交易（包括与任何交易文件的执行相关的争议），并且在此不可撤销地放弃并同意不在任何诉讼或法律程序中主张其个人不受任何此类法院管辖、此类诉讼或法律诉讼不当或是此类诉讼的不便地点的任何主张。各方特此不可撤销地放弃亲自送达传票，并同意在任何此类诉讼或法律程序中通过挂号信或挂号信或隔夜送达（附送达证据）将传票副本邮寄至本协议项下的有效通知地址，以送达传票，且同意此类送达应构成过程及其通知。本协议中的任何内容均不得视为以任何方式限制以法律允许的任何其他方式送达传票的权利。如果任何一方为执行交易文件的任何规 定而提起诉讼或诉讼，则除公司在第4.7条下的义务外，该诉讼或诉讼中的胜诉方应获得非胜诉方的合理律师费和调查所产生的其他成本和费用的补偿，准备和起诉此类诉讼或程序。

 

5.10 Survival. The representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Shares.

 

5.10存续。本协议中包含的xx和保证应在交割和股份交付后存续。

 

29 

 

 

5.11 Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to each other party, it being understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.

 

5.1签署。本协议可签署两份或多份副本，所有副本合在一起应视为同一份协议，并在各方签署副本并交付给另一方时生效，双方无需签署同一份副本。如果通过电子邮件发送“.pdf”格式数据文件的方式交付任何签名，则该签名应构成签署方（或代表签署该签名的一方）的有效且具有约束力的义务，其效力与该“.pdf”签名页的原件相同。

 

5.12 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

 

5.12可分割性。如果本协议的任何条款、规定、契约或限制被具有合法管辖权的法院认定为无效、非法、无效或不可执行，则本协议中规定的其余条款、规定和限制应保持充分效力，且不得以任何方式受到影响、损害或无效，本协议各方应尽其商业上合理的努力，寻找并采用替代手段，以实现与该条款、规定、契约或限制所预期的相同或基本相同的结果。特此规定并声明，双方有意执行剩余条款、规定、契约和限制，但不包括任何可能被宣布为无效、非法、无效或不可执行的条款、规定和限制。

 

5.13 Rescission and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) any of the other Transaction Documents, whenever any Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Purchaser may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.

 

5.13解除和撤回权利。尽管任何其他交易文件中有任何相反规定（但不限制任何类似规定），只要任何买方行使交易文件项下的权利、选择、要求或选择权，且公司未在规定期限内及时履行其相关义务，则该买方可撤销或撤回，在不影响其未来行动和权利的情况下，在向公司发出书面通知后，可自行决定是否发出全部或部分相关通知、要求或选择。

 

5.14 Replacement of Shares. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Shares is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof (in the case of mutilation), or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction. The applicant for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs (including customary indemnity) associated with the issuance of such replacement Shares.

 

5.14股份更换。如果证明任何股份的任何证书或文书被肢解、丢失、被盗或毁坏，公司应发行或促使发行新的证书或文书，以换取和替换（在肢解的情况下），或替代和替换新的证书和文书，但仅在收到公司合理满意的此类损失证据后，盗窃或破坏。在这种情况下，新证书或文书的申请人还应支付与发行此类替代股份相关的任何合理的第三方费用（包括惯常赔偿）。

 

30 

 

 

5.15 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the Purchasers and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations contained in the Transaction Documents and hereby agree to waive and not to assert in any Action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

 

5.15赔偿。除有权行使本协议规定或法律授予的所有权利（包括赔偿损失）外，各买方和公司将有权根据交易文件具体履行义务。双方同意，金钱赔偿可能不足以补偿因违反交易文件中规定的任何义务而产生的任何损失，并在此同意放弃且不在任何诉讼中主张具体履行任何此类义务的辩护，即法律救济是充分的。

 

5.16 Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document or a Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

 

5.16备用付款。如果公司根据任何交易文件向任何买方付款，或买方执行或行使其在交易文件项下的权利，且该付款或付款或该执行或行使的收益或其任何部分随后无效、被宣布为欺诈或优惠、被撤销、被收回，根据任何法律（包括但不限于任何破产法、州法律或联邦法律、普通法或衡平法诉讼理由），公司、受托人、接管人或任何其他人退还或被要求退还、偿还或以其他方式恢复，则在任何此类恢复的范围内，最初打算履行的义务或其部分应恢复并继续完全有效，如同未支付此类款项或未发生此类强制执行或抵消一样。

 

5.17 Independent Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance or non-performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any Proceeding for such purpose. Each Purchaser has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in its review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. The Company has elected to provide all Purchasers with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by any of the Purchasers. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement and in each other Transaction Document is between the Company and a Purchaser, solely, and not between the Company and the Purchasers collectively and not between and among the Purchasers.

 

5.17买方义务和权利的独立性质。各买方在任何交易文件下的义务是单独的，不与任何其他买方的义务相结合，任何买方均不以任何方式对任何其他买方履行或不履行任何交易文件项下的义务负责。本协议或任何其他交易文件中的任何内容，以及任何买方根据本协议或本协议采取的任何行动，均不得视为构成买方作为合伙企业、协会、合资企业或任何其他类型的实体，或建立一种假设，即买方在交易文件规定的义务或交易方面以任何方式一致行动或作为一个集团。各买方应有权独立保护和执行其权利，包括但不限于本协议或其他交易文件中产生的权利，任何其他买方无需为此目的作为额外一方加入任何诉讼。各买方均由各自独立的法律顾问代表其审查和谈判交易文件。公司已选择向所有买方提供相同的条款和交易文件，以方便公司，而不是因为任何买方要求或要求这样做。双方明确理解并同意，本协议和其他交易文件中包含的每一条款均为公司与买方之间的单独条款，而非公司与买方集体之间的条款，而不是买方之间的条款。

 

31 

 

 

5.18 Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.

 

5.18周六、周日、节假日等。如果采取任何行动的最后一天或指定日期或本协议要求或授予的任何权利到期日不是营业日，则可在下一个营业日采取此类行动或行使此类权利。

 

5.19 Construction. The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel have reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction Documents and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of the Transaction Documents or any amendments thereto. In addition, each and every reference to share prices and Ordinary Shares in any Transaction Document shall be subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, bonus share issuances, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Ordinary Shares that occur after the date of this Agreement.

 

5.19解释。双方同意，他们和/或他们各自的律师已经审查并有机会修改交易文件，因此，在解释交易文件或其任何修正案时，不得采用通常的解释规则，即任何歧义都要针对起草方解决。此外，任何交易文件中对股价和普通股的每一个参考都应根据本协议日期后发生的反向和正向股票分割、股票股息、股票组合和其他类似的普通股交易进行调整。

 

5.20 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING IN ANY JURISDICTION BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY, THE PARTIES EACH KNOWINGLY AND INTENTIONALLY, TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY ABSOLUTELY, UNCONDITIONALLY, IRREVOCABLY AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES FOREVER TRIAL BY JURY.

 

5.20放弃陪审团审判。在任何一方在任何司法管辖区针对任何另一方提起的任何诉讼、起诉或法律程序中，各方均在适用法律允许的最大范围内，明知且特意地绝对、无条件、不可撤销地明确放弃陪审团的审判。
