In the event there is any compulsory requirement provided by PRC Laws then in effect with respect to the Transfer Price, Beijing Miyuan or the entity or individual designated by Beijing Miyuan shall be entitled to purchase the Transfer Equity Interests at a Purchase Price which is the lowest price allowed under the PRC Laws. If the lowest price allowed under the PRC Laws is in excess of the amount of registered capital corresponding to the Transfer Equity Interests, the Existing Shareholders shall repay to Beijing Miyuan such excess amount pursuant to the provisions under the Loan Agreement by and among Beijing Miyuan and the Existing Shareholders.
