BOARD Of DIRECTORS

Renren shall ensure that any Renren Nominee, and SVF shall ensure that any SVF Nominee, meets any applicable requirements under the Articles, Cayman Islands law and the Listing Rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market (or other applicable stock exchange) to act as a Director. Any Renren Nominee or SVF Nominee shall be subject to the terms of the Articles with respect to his or her directorship, including the term of office as a member of the designated class of director.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if any Renren Nominee or SVF Nominee resigns, is removed pursuant to Section 2.1(c) or otherwise, or is unable to continue to serve as a Director of the Company, Renren or SVF (as applicable) may designate a replacement Director and each of the Company, Renren and SVF shall cause such person to be elected a Director, including through the exercise of their respective nomination, appointment and and/or voting powers described in Section 2.1(a). (For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding the resignation or removal of a Director pursuant to this Section 2.1(b), Renren and SVF (as applicable) shall remain entitled to nominate and designate one Director pursuant to and subject to Section 2.1(a)).

(c) Any Director of the Company may be removed from the Board of Directors in accordance with applicable law and the governing documents of the Company; provided, however, that (i) with respect to any Renren Nominee, SVF shall not take any action to cause any such removal without the prior written consent of Renren unless such removal is required by applicable law or such Director is no longer qualified to serve as a Director pursuant to applicable Commission or regulatory requirements, and (ii) with respect to any SVF Nominee, Renren shall not take any action to cause any such removal without the prior written consent of SVF unless such removal is required by applicable law or such Director is no longer qualified to serve as a Director pursuant to applicable Commission or regulatory requirements.

(d) The Company shall ensure, to the extent permitted by applicable law, that any Directors, including any Renren Nominee or SVF Nominee, nominated or designated pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall enjoy the same rights, capacities, entitlements, indemnification rights and compensation as any other members of the Board of Directors. Any Renren Nominee or SVF Nominee shall be entitled to reimbursement for documented, reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings of the Board of Directors to the same extent as other members of the Board of Directors. The Company shall notify the Renren Nominees and the SVF Nominee of all regular meetings and special meetings of the Board of Directors. The Company shall provide the Renren Nominees and the SVF Nominee with copies of all notices, minutes, consents and other material that it provides to all other members of the Board of Directors concurrently with such materials being provided to the other members.

(e) Each of Renren, SVF and the Company agrees that the Board shall consist of (i) five (5) Directors while the Company is not a “foreign private issuer” as defined in Rule 3b-4 under the Exchange Act or (ii) seven (7) Directors while the Company is a “foreign private issuer” as defined in Rule 3b-4 under the Exchange Act, other than as required by applicable laws and regulations. In the event that applicable laws and/or regulations require the Company to appoint additional members to the Board, in order to fulfill applicable independence requirements, SFV agrees to grant a proxy to Renren with respect to the vote of all Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by it with respect to the appointment of any such independent Director(s) or Director nominee(s) (and any of their successors or replacements).

(f) In the event that Renren, together with its Affiliates, beneficially owns fewer Ordinary Shares than the Threshold Ownership Amount or Renren is not the single largest Shareholder of the Company, Renren’s rights, under this Section 2.1 shall terminate immediately. For the avoidance of doubt, the rights of Renren set forth in this Section 2.1 shall reattach following any termination thereof pursuant to this Section 2.1(f) in the event that the number of Ordinary Shares owned by Renren and its Affiliates subsequently surpasses the Threshold Ownership Amount and Renren is the single largest Shareholder of the Company.

Section 2.2 Other Matters

(a) Renren and SVF agree that for a period of two (2) years following the date of the Closing, subject to applicable law (including laws related to fiduciary duties), without the prior written consent of SVF, no Renren Nominee nor Renren in its capacity as shareholder of the Company shall propose or vote for (i) any amendment to the Company’s equity incentive plan which would have the effect of increasing the number of Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to such plan, or (ii) any additional equity incentive plan.

(b) Renren and SVF agree that for a period of six (6) months following the date of the Closing, subject to applicable law (including laws related to fiduciary duties), without the prior written consent of Renren, no SVF Nominee nor SVF in its capacity as a shareholder of the Company shall propose or vote for any change, replacement, separation, dismissal or decrease in compensation of any director of the Company.

ARTICLE III
REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Section 3.1 Applicability of Rights. Renren shall be entitled to the following rights with respect to any potential public offering of Ordinary Shares in the United States, and to any analogous or equivalent rights with respect to any other offering of shares in any other jurisdiction pursuant to which the Company undertakes to publicly offer or list such securities for trading on a recognized securities exchange.

Section 3.2 Restrictive Legend; Execution by the Company.

The Company, by its execution in the space provided below, agrees that it will cause the certificates evidencing the Ordinary Shares to bear the legend required by Section 3.2(b) of the Exchange Agreement, and it shall supply, free of charge, a copy of this Agreement to any holder of a certificate evidencing Ordinary Shares containing such legend upon written request from such holder to the Company at its principal office. The parties hereto do hereby agree that the failure to cause the certificates evidencing the appropriate Ordinary Shares to bear the legend required by Section 3.2(b) of the Exchange Agreement and/or failure of the Company to supply, free of charge, a copy of this Agreement as provided under this Section 3.2 shall not affect the validity or enforcement of this Agreement.

Section 3.3 Demand Registration.

(a) Request by Renren. If the Company shall at any time after six (6) months after the date of this Agreement receive a written request from Renren that the Company effect a registration, qualification or compliance with respect to the Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2.3, then the Company shall use its best efforts to effect, within 45 Business Days of such request, such registration, qualification or compliance (including, without limitation, appropriate qualification under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with applicable regulations issued under the Securities Act and any other governmental requirements or regulations) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, subject only to the limitations of this Section 2.3; provided that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration:

(i) During the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s estimated date of filing of, and ending on the date six (6) months immediately following the effective date of, any registration statement pertaining to securities of the Company (other than a registration of securities in a transaction under Rule 145 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 145”) or with respect to an employee benefit plan), provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective;

(ii) After the Company has effected two such registrations pursuant to this Section 3.3(a), and each such registration has been declared or ordered effective; or

(iii) If Renren may dispose of shares of Registrable Securities pursuant to an effective registration statement on Form S-3 or Form F-3 under the Securities Act as in effect on the date hereof or any successor form under the Securities Act (“Form S-3/F-3”) pursuant to a request made under Section 3.5 hereof.

The Company shall not undertake, or be required to undertake, any action to qualify, register or list any securities on any exchange other than the Nasdaq in connection with this Section 3.3, provided that the Ordinary Shares continue to be listed on the Nasdaq.

(b) Underwriting. If Renren intends to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by its request by means of an underwriting, then it shall so advise the Company as a part of its request made pursuant to this Section 3.3. In the event of an underwritten offering, the right of Renren to include its Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon Renren’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of Renren’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. If Renren proposes to distribute its securities through such an underwriting, it shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by it and reasonably acceptable to the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.3, 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 Renren, 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 held by each Shareholder requesting registration (including Renren); provided, however, that the number 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 any of the Group Companies. If Renren disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, Renren 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 and/or other securities so excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be excluded and withdrawn from the registration. Renren and all corporations that are Affiliates of Renren shall be deemed to be a single “Shareholder,” and any pro rata reduction with respect to such “Shareholder” shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in such “Shareholder,” as defined in this sentence.

(c) Deferral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall furnish to Renren following its request of the filing of a registration statement pursuant to this Section 3.3, a certificate signed by CEO 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, 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 Renren; provided, however, that the Company may not utilize this right more than once in any twelve (12) month period; provided, further that during such ninety (90) day period, the Company shall not file any registration statement pertaining to the public offering of any securities of the Company.

(d) Expenses. The Company shall pay all Registration Expenses. If Renren participates in a registration pursuant to Section 3.3(b), Renren shall bear its 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 incurred in connection with such registration of securities on behalf of Renren. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to this Section 3.3 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of Renren, unless Renren agrees that such registration constitutes the use by Renren of one (1) demand registration pursuant to this Section 3.3; provided, further, however, that if at the time of such withdrawal, Renren has learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business, or prospects of the Company not known to Renren at the time of their request for such registration and has withdrawn its request for registration with reasonable promptness after learning of such material adverse change, then Renren shall not be required to pay any of such expenses and such registration shall not constitute the use of a demand registration pursuant to this Section 3.3.

Section 3.4 Piggyback Registrations.

(a) Notice of Registration. The Company shall notify Renren in writing of registration of any of its securities, either for its own account or the account of a security holder or holders (including, but not limited to, registration statements relating to secondary offerings of securities of the Company, but excluding registration statements relating to (i) any registration under Section 3.3 or Section 3.5 of this Agreement, (ii) any employee benefit plan, or (iii) any corporate reorganization) and will afford Renren an opportunity to include in such registration all or any part of the Registrable Securities then held by it. If Renren desires to include in any such registration (and any related qualifications under blue sky laws or other compliance) and in any underwriting involved therein, all or any part of the Registrable Securities held by Renren, it shall 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 Renren wishes to include in such registration statement. If Renren decides not to include all of its Registrable Securities in any registration statement thereafter filed by the Company, Renren 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 under which the Company gives notice under this Section 3.4 is for an underwritten offering, then the Company shall so advise Renren. In such event, the right of Renren’s Registrable Securities to be included in a registration pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall be conditioned upon Renren’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of Renren’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. If Renren proposes to distribute its Registrable Securities through such underwriting, Renren shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter or underwriters selected by the Company for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, 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, and second, to each of the Shareholders requesting inclusion of their Registrable Securities in such registration statement on a pro rata basis based on the total number of Registrable Securities then held by each such Shareholder; provided, however, that the right of the underwriter(s) to exclude shares (including Registrable Securities) from the registration and underwriting as described above shall be restricted so that (i) the number of Registrable Securities included in any such registration is not reduced below thirty percent (30%) of the aggregate number of Registrable Securities for which inclusion has been requested, even if this will cause the Company to reduce the number of shares it wishes to offer; 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 any of the Group Companies shall first be excluded from such registration and underwriting before any Registrable Securities are so excluded. If Renren disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, Renren 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. Renren and all corporations that are Affiliates of Renren shall be deemed to be a single Shareholder, and any pro rata reduction with respect to Renren shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in such “Shareholder”, as defined in this sentence.

(i) If the registration is being undertaken on behalf of the Company, first to the Company, and second, to each of the Shareholders requesting inclusion of their securities pursuant to piggyback registration rights (including those pursuant to this Agreement) in such registration statement on a pro rata basis based on the total number of securities then held by each such Shareholder. If Renren disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, Renren 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. Renren and all corporations that are Affiliates of Renren shall be deemed to be a single Shareholder, and any pro rata reduction with respect to Renren shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in such “Shareholder”, as defined in this sentence.

(ii) If the registration is being undertaken on behalf of securityholders (not including Renren) making a written demand for registration pursuant to demand registration rights, first to such shareholders making a written demand for registration, and second, to each of the shareholders requesting inclusion of their securities pursuant to piggyback registration rights (including Renren, pursuant to this Agreement) in such registration statement on a pro rata basis based on the total number of securities then held by each such shareholder. If Renren disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, Renren 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. Renren and all corporations that are Affiliates of Renren shall be deemed to be a single Shareholder, and any pro rata reduction with respect to Renren shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in such “Shareholder”, as defined in this sentence.

(c) Expenses. The Company shall pay all Registration Expenses incurred in connection with each registration under this Section 3.4. If Renren participates in a registration pursuant to this Section 3.4, Renren shall bear its proportionate share (based upon the total number of shares sold in such registration other than for the account of the Company) of all Selling Expenses incurred in connection with such registration of securities on behalf of Shareholders.

(d) Not a Demand Registration. Registration pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall not be deemed to be a demand registration as described in Section 3.3 above. Except as otherwise provided herein, there shall be no limit on the number of times Renren may request registration of Registrable Securities under this Section 3.4.

Section 3.5 Form S-3/F-3 Registration.

(a) The Company shall use its best efforts to qualify for registration on Form S-3/F-3 or any comparable or successor form as early as possible and use best efforts to maintain such qualification thereafter. If the Company is qualified to use Form S-3/F-3, Renren shall have a right to request at such time from time to time (such request shall be in writing) that the Company effect a registration on either Form S-3/F-3 and any related qualification or compliance with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities owned by Renren, and upon receipt of each such request, the Company will:

(i) 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 Renren’s Registrable Securities as are specified in such request; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this Section 3.5:

(1)

if Form S-3/F-3 becomes unavailable for such offering by Renren;

(2)

if Renren, 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$1,000,000; or

(3)

if the Company has effected a registration pursuant to this Section 3.5 during the preceding six (6) month period.

(b) Expenses. The Company shall pay all Registration Expenses incurred in connection with each registration requested pursuant to this Section 3.5.

(c) Maximum Frequency. Except as otherwise provided herein, Renren may request registration of Registrable Securities three (3) times under this Section 3.5.

(d) Deferral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall furnish to Renren a certificate signed by the CEO 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 Form S-3/F-3 registration statement to be filed, 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 Renren; provided, however, that the Company may not utilize this right more than once in any twelve (12) month period; provided, further that during such ninety (90) day period, the Company shall not file any registration statement pertaining to the public offering of any securities of the Company.

Section 3.6 Obligations of the Company.

(a) Registration Statement. Prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective, and keep any such registration statement effective for a period of one hundred and twenty (120) days or until Renren has completed the distribution described in the registration statement relating thereto, whichever occurs first.

Prepare and file with the Commission 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 or other applicable securities laws with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement.

(c) Registration Statements and Prospectuses. Furnish to Renren such number of copies of registration statements and prospectuses, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act or other applicable securities laws, and such other documents as it may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by it 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 Renren, 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.

(e) Deposit Agreement. If the registration relates to an offering of depositary shares or other securities representing Ordinary Shares deposited pursuant to a deposit agreement or similar facility, cause the depositary under such agreement or facility to accept for deposit under such agreement or facility all Registrable Securities requested by Renren to be included in such registration in accordance with this Section 3.

(f) 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. Renren shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement.

(g) Notification. Notify Renren at any time when a prospectus relating to its Registrable Securities is required to be delivered under the Securities Act or other applicable securities laws of 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.

(h) Opinion and Comfort Letter. Furnish, at the request of Renren, 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 purpose of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering and reasonably satisfactory to Renren, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to Renren and (ii) a “comfort” letter dated as of such date, 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 Renren, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and Renren.

(i) Listing on Securities Exchange(s). Cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereto to be listed on the Nasdaq, or such other internationally recognized exchange, for long as the Company’s securities are listed on such exchange.

If the Company fails to perform any of the Company’s obligations set forth above in this Section 3.6 relating to a demand registration made pursuant to Section 3.3, such registration shall not constitute the use of a demand registration under Section 3.3.

Section 3.7 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 with respect to the Registrable Securities of Renren, that Renren shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be reasonably requested in writing by the Company to timely effect the registration of its Registrable Securities.

Section 3.8 Indemnification.

The following indemnification provisions shall apply 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 Renren, its partners, officers, directors, employees, trustees, legal counsel and any underwriter (as determined in the Securities Act) for Renren and each Person, if any, who controls Renren or underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act against any expenses, losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) (or actions in respect thereof) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other applicable law, insofar as such expenses, 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 (each a “Violation”):

(i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement, offering circular, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or other document, 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, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading; or

(iii) any violation or alleged violation of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any federal or state or foreign securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other applicable securities law in connection with the offering covered by such registration statement; and the Company will reimburse Renren, its partners, officers, directors, employees, legal counsel, underwriters 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 Section 3.8(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 Renren, underwriter or controlling Person of Renren.

(b) By Renren. To the extent permitted by law, Renren will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who have signed the registration statement, each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, any underwriter (as determined in the Securities Act) and any other Shareholder selling securities under such registration statement or any of such other Shareholder’s partners, directors, officers, employees, trustees, legal counsel and any underwriter (as determined in the Securities Act) for such Shareholder and each Person, if any, who controls such Shareholder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against any expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) (or actions in respect thereof) to which the Company or any such director, officer, employee, trustee, legal counsel, controlling Person, underwriter or other such Shareholder, partner or director, officer, employee or controlling Person of such other Shareholder may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other applicable law, insofar as such expenses, 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 Renren expressly for use in connection with such registration; and Renren will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director, officer, employee, controlling Person, underwriter or other Shareholder, partner, officer, employee, director or controlling Person of such other Shareholder in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action: provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 3.8(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 Renren, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided, further that the total amounts payable in indemnity by Renren under this Section 3.8(b) plus any amount under Section 3.8(e) in respect of any Violation shall not exceed the net proceeds received by Renren in the registered offering out of which such Violation arises.

(c) Notice. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 3.8 of notice of the commencement of any claim or 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 3.8, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof (a “Claim Notice”) 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, (i) during the period from the delivery of a Claim Notice until retention of counsel by the indemnifying party; and (ii) if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be 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 3.8 to the extent the indemnifying party is prejudiced as a result thereof, but the omission so to 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 3.8.

(d) Defect Eliminated in Final Prospectus. The foregoing indemnity agreements of the Company and Renren are subject to the condition that, insofar as they relate to any untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission made in a preliminary prospectus or free writing prospectus on file with the Commission at the time the registration statement becomes effective, such indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of any Person if an amended prospectus is filed with the Commission and delivered pursuant to the Securities Act at or prior to the time of sale (including, without limitation, a contract of sale, and as further contemplated by Rule 159 promulgated under the Securities Act) to the Person asserting the loss, liability, claim or damage.

(e) Contribution. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either (i) Renren exercising rights under this Agreement, or any controlling Person of Renren, makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 3.8 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 3.8 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of Renren or any such controlling Person in circumstances for which indemnification is provided under this Section 3.8; then, and in each such case, the Company and Renren 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 Renren 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 any other selling Shareholders are responsible for the remaining portion; provided, however, that, in any such case: (A) Renren will not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all such Registrable Securities offered and sold by Renren pursuant to such registration statement; and (B) no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(f) Survival. The obligations of the Company and Renren under this Section 3.8 shall survive until the fifth (5th) anniversary of the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a registration statement, regardless of the expiration of any statutes of limitation or extensions of such statutes.

Section 3.9 Rule 144 Reporting.

With a view to making available to Renren the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission which may permit the sale of the Restricted Securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use its best efforts to:

(a) Make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 or any similar or analogous rule promulgated under the Securities Act, at all times after the effective date of the first registration filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to the general public;

(b) File with the Commission, in a timely manner, all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, at all times after the effective date of the first registration under the Securities Act filed by the Company; and

(c) So long as Renren owns any Restricted Securities, furnish to Renren forthwith upon request, (i) a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of said Rule 144, and of the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual, interim, quarterly or other report of the Company, and (iii) such other reports and documents as Renren may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing it to sell any such securities without registration.

Section 3.10 Termination of the Company’s Obligations.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligations pursuant to Sections 2.3, 2.4 or 2.5 with respect to any Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by Renren in a registered public offering if, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, all such Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by Renren may then be sold under Rule 144 (i) in one three (3) month period without exceeding the volume limitations thereunder or (ii) without volume limitations.

Section 3.11 Re-Sale Rights.

The Company shall use its best efforts to assist Renren in the sale or disposition of its Registrable Securities, including the prompt delivery of applicable instruction letters by the Company and legal opinions from the Company’s counsels in forms reasonably satisfactory to Renren’s counsel. In the event the Company has depositary receipts listed or traded on any stock exchange or inter-dealer quotation system, the Company shall pay all costs and fees related to such depositary facility, including conversion fees and maintenance fees for Registrable Securities held by Renren.

Section 3.12 Transfer of Registration Rights.

The rights to cause the Company to register securities granted to Renren under Sections 2.3, 2.4 or 2.5 may be assigned to a transferee or assignee in connection with any transfer or assignment of Registrable Securities by Renren; provided that: (a) such transfer may otherwise be effected in accordance with applicable securities laws, (b) the Company is given prompt notice of the transfer, (c) such assignee or transferee agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement by executing and delivering a Deed of Adherence (in the same form and substance as set out in Schedule 1 hereto), and(d) such assignee or transferee is (i) an Affiliate or affiliated fund (United States based or non-United States based) of Renren, (ii) a family member or trust for the benefit of any shareholder of Renren, or (iii) a transferee of the Registrable Securities originally issued to Renren (as adjusted for Recapitalization) equal to at least at least five percent (5%) of the total outstanding share capital of the Company (calculated on a fully-diluted basis.

Section 5.6 Dispute Resolution. Any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, including any question regarding its existence, validity or termination and the Parties’ rights and obligations hereunder (each, a “Dispute”) shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration (the “Arbitration”) in the following manner:

(a) The Arbitration shall be administered by the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (“HKIAC”);

(b) The Arbitration shall be procedurally governed by the HKIAC Administered Arbitration Rules as in force at the date on which the claimant party notifies the respondent party in writing (such notice, a “Notice of Arbitration”) of its intent to pursue Arbitration, which are deemed to be incorporated by reference and may be amended by this Section 5.6;

(d) A Dispute subject to Arbitration shall be determined by a panel of three (3) arbitrators (the “Tribunal”).

(e) The parties agree that all documents and evidence submitted in the Arbitration (including any statements of case and any interim or final award, as well as the fact that an arbitral award has been made) shall remain confidential both during and after any final award that is rendered unless the parties otherwise agree in writing. The arbitral award is final and binding upon the parties to the Arbitration.

Section 5.7 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 commercially reasonable 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.

Section 5.8 Assignments and Transfers; No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto hereunder shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, their respective successors and permitted assigns (and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by any transferee of equity securities held by Renren but only to the extent of such transfer), but shall not otherwise be for the benefit of any third party. Subject to Section 5.2 hereof, (a) the rights of Renren under this Agreement are assignable in connection with the transfer of any Ordinary Shares held by Renren but only to the extent of such transfer, and (b) the rights of Renren hereunder (including without limitation its rights under Article III of this Agreement) are assignable in the connection with the transfer of any Ordinary Shares held by Renren to any of its Affiliates (in each case subject to applicable securities laws and other laws), provided, however, that in either case (y) no party may be assigned any of the foregoing rights unless the Company is given written notice by the assigning party stating the name and address of the assignee and identifying the securities of the Company as to which the rights in question are being assigned; and (z) any such transferee shall execute and deliver to the Company and Renren a Deed of Adherence (in the same form and substance as set out in Schedule 1 hereto), subject to the terms and conditions hereof. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of any party hereunder shall not otherwise be assigned without the mutual written consent of the other parties hereto,

Section 5.9 Construction. Each of the parties has participated in the drafting and negotiation of this Agreement.

Section 5.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other parties. A facsimile or “PDF” signature shall be considered due execution and shall be binding upon the signatory thereto with the same force and effect as if the signature were an original.

Section 5.11 Aggregation of Shares. All Securities held or acquired by Renren and/or its Affiliates and Permitted Transferees shall be aggregated together for the purpose of determining the availability of any rights of Renren under this Agreement.

Section 5.12 Conflict with Articles or Other Agreements. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Articles, the parties shall, notwithstanding the conflict or inconsistency, act so as to effect the intent of this Agreement to the greatest extent possible under the circumstances. The Company agrees that in the event that any holder of Ordinary Shares is, after the date of this Agreement, granted any registration rights that are more favorable to such other holder than those rights provided to Renren pursuant to Article II hereof, Renren shall be promptly notified in writing of such modification to the rights and the Company shall amend this Agreement to grant Renren the same rights from the date that those rights are provided to such other holder.

Section 5.13 Specific Performance. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree irreparable harm may occur for which money damages would not be an adequate remedy in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that, in addition to any other remedies at law or in equity, the parties to this Agreement shall be entitled to injunction to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement without posting any bond or other undertaking.

Section 5.14 Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented only by a written instrument duly executed by all the parties hereto. The observance of any provision in this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) only by the written consent of the party against whom such waiver is to be effective. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 5.14 shall be binding upon the parties hereof and their respective assigns. It is agreed that no delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party, upon any breach, default or noncompliance by another party under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach, default or noncompliance, or any acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach, default or noncompliance thereafter occurring.

Section 5.15 Public Announcements. Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, the parties hereto, to the extent permitted by applicable law, will consult with each other before issuance, and provide each other the opportunity to review, comment upon and agree on any press release or public statement with respect to this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and the ongoing business relationship among the parties. The parties hereto will not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the prior written consent of the other party, except as may be required by law or any listing agreement with or requirement of the Nasdaq, the NYSE or any other applicable securities exchange, provided that the disclosing party shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law or any listing agreement with or requirement of the Nasdaq, the NYSE or any other applicable securities exchange, and if reasonably practicable, inform the other parties about the disclosure to be made pursuant to such requirements prior to the disclosure.
