A request for such equitable or injunctive relief shall not waive this arbitration provision.

8.4 Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided herein, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective successors and assigns of the Parties whose rights or obligations hereunder are affected by such terms and conditions. This Agreement, and the rights and obligations hereunder, shall not be assigned without the mutual written consents of the Investors and the Company; provided that each Investor may assign its rights and obligations to its Affiliate(s) or third party (subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 3) without consent of the other Parties under this Agreement; provided further that the assignee shall execute and deliver such documents and take such other actions as may be necessary for such assignee to join in and be bound by the terms of this Agreement as an “Investor” (if not already a Party hereto) upon and after such assignment.

Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the Party to be bound thereby. Any waiver of any term or condition shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or a subsequent waiver of the same term or condition, or a waiver of any other term or condition of this Agreement. The failure of any Party to assert any of its rights hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any of such rights.
8.7 Interpretation.

The Parties hereto that are parties to the Prior Shareholders’ Agreement hereby irrevocably waive any and all rights that they may have against any other party under the Prior Shareholders’ Agreement in exchange for their rights hereunder.
8.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Facsimile and e-mailed copies of signatures shall be deemed to be originals for purposes of the effectiveness of this Agreement.
8.10 Non-Signing Group Companies.

EXHIBIT E
TERMS OF THE PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS, RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL AND
RIGHT OF CO-SALE
All reference in this Exhibit to designated “Sections” and other subdivisions are to the designated Sections and other subdivisions of the body of this Exhibit, unless explicitly stated otherwise.
1. PREEMPTIVE RIGHT
1.1 Preemptive Right. Subject to Section 2.2 of this Agreement and other than in a QIPO, each of the Preferred Shareholders, the Class D Ordinary Shareholders, Class C Ordinary Shareholder and Class B Ordinary Shareholders (each, a “PR Holder”) shall have a right (the “Preemptive Right”) (but not an obligation) to purchase all or part of its pro rata share, based on its percentage of the issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares, calculated on an as-converted basis, of any New Shares (the “Issuance Shares”) that the Company may, from time to time after the Closing, propose to issue to any potential purchaser (the “Potential Subscriber”) as set forth in this Section 1.
1.2 Procedure.
(i) Issuance Notice. If the Company proposes to issue any New Shares, it shall give each PR Holder a written notice (an “Issuance Notice”) of such intention, describing (i) type and number of the New Shares to be issued, (ii) identity of the Potential Subscriber, and (iii) price and other material terms and conditions upon which the Company proposes to issue such Issuance Shares.
(ii) Exercise. Each PR Holder shall have fifteen (15) days after the receipt of the Issuance Notice to irrevocably elect to purchase all or a portion of its initial pro rata share of the Issuance Shares on the same price and terms and conditions as indicated on the Issuance Notice by notifying the Company in writing of the number of Issuance Shares to be purchased. For the purposes of the Preemptive Right, each PR Holder’s “initial pro rata share” shall be determined according to the aggregate number of all Shares held by such PR Holder (excluding the Class A Ordinary Shares held by any PR Holder that is a Founder Holdco) on the date of the Issuance Notice in relation to the aggregate number of all Shares then issued and outstanding on such date (calculated on an as-converted basis, excluding the Class A Ordinary Shares held by any PR Holder that is a Founder Holdco).
(iii) Over-Allotment. If the any PR Holder fails to elect to purchase all of its initial pro rata share of the Issuance Shares, then such unpurchased Issuance Shares (“Over-Allotment Issuance Shares”) shall be made available to each PR Holder who has elected to purchase all of its initial pro rata share of the Issuance Shares for over-allotment (the “Purchasing PR Holder”). The Company shall deliver an over-allotment notice to each Purchasing PR Holder to inform them of the aggregate number of Over-Allotment Issuance Shares that are available for over-allotment. Each Purchasing PR Holder shall have five (5) days after the receipt of such over-allotment notice to irrevocably elect to purchase all or a portion of the Over-Allotment Issuance Shares on the same price as indicated on the Issuance Notice by notifying the Company in writing of the number of Over-Allotment Issuance Shares to be purchased. If the aggregate number of the Over-Allotment Issuance Shares elected to be purchased by all Purchasing PR Holders in response to such over-allotment notice exceeds the aggregate number of the Over-Allotment Issuance Shares that are available for over-allotment, then the Over-Allotment Issuance Shares shall be allocated among Purchasing PR Holders by allocating to each Purchasing PR Holder the lesser of (A) the difference between the number of Over-Allotment Issuance Shares it elects to purchase and the aggregate number of Over-Allotment Issuance Shares that has already been allocated to it, and (B) its over-allotment pro rata share of the Over-Allotment Issuance Shares that has not yet been allocated, which allocation step shall be repeated until all Over-Allotment Issuance Shares are allocated among the Purchasing PR Holders. Each Purchasing PR Holder who has been allocated all the Over-Allotment Issuance Shares that it has elected to purchase shall cease to participate in any subsequent allocation step. For the purposes of determining the allocation of Over-Allotment Issuance Shares that a Purchasing PR Holder will receive in each allocation step, such Purchasing PR Holder’s “over-allotment pro rata share” shall be determined according to the aggregate number of all Shares held by such Purchasing PR Holder (excluding the Class A Ordinary Shares held by any PR Holder that is a Founder Holdco) on the date of the Issuance Notice in relation to the aggregate number of all Shares held by all Purchasing PR Holders who participate in such allocation step on such date (excluding the Class A Ordinary Shares held by any PR Holder that is a Founder Holdco).
(iv) Closing. If any PR Holder elects to purchase Issuance Shares, then payment for the Issuance Shares to be purchased shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds of the appropriate currency, against allotment of such Issuance Shares to be purchased, at a place and time agreed to by the Company and the PR Holders that have elected to purchase a majority of the Issuance Shares; provided that the scheduled time for closing shall not be later than thirty (30) days following the expiration of the last period during which any PR Holder may elect to purchase any Issuance Share (including Over-Allotment Issuance Share).
1.3 Permitted Issuance to Potential Subscriber. For a period of ninety (90) days following the expiration of the last period during which any PR Holder may elect to purchase any Issuance Share (including Over-Allotment Issuance Share), the Company may issue any Issuance Shares with respect to which the PR Holders’ Preemptive Rights were not exercised, to the Potential Subscriber identified in the Issuance Notice and at a price and upon terms not more favorable than those specified in the Issuance Notice. In the event the Company has not issued such Issuance Shares within such ninety (90) day period, the Company shall not thereafter issue any New Shares, without first again complying with the terms of this Section 1.3.

(b) if, within ten (10) days of the receipt of any request of the Holders to Register any Registrable Securities under Section 2.2 hereof, the Company gives notice to the Initiating Holders of its bona fide intention to effect the filing for its own account of a Registration Statement of Class A Ordinary Shares within sixty (60) days of receipt of that request; provided, that the Company is actively employing in good faith its best efforts to cause that Registration Statement to become effective within sixty (60) days of receipt of that request; provided, further, that the Holders are entitled to join such Registration subject to Section 3 hereof (other than a registration of securities in a transaction under Rule 145 of the Securities Act or with respect to an employee benefit plan);
(c) during the period starting with the date of filing by the Company of and ending one hundred and eighty days (180) days following the effective date of any Registration Statement pertaining to Class A Ordinary Shares of the Company; provided, that the Holders are entitled to join such Registration subject to Section 3 hereof (other than a registration of securities in a transaction under Rule 145 of the Securities Act or with respect to an employee benefit plan); or
(d) in any jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such Registration or qualification, unless the Company is already subject to service of process in such jurisdiction.
(ii) If, after receiving a request from Holders pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.2 hereof, the Company furnishes to the Holders a certificate signed by the chief executive officer of the Company stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board, it would be materially detrimental to the Company or its members for a Registration Statement to be filed in the near future, then the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period during which such filing would be materially detrimental, provided, that that the Company may not utilize this right and/or the deferral right contained in this clause (ii) for more than ninety (90) days on any one occasion or for more than once during any twelve (12) month period; provided, further, that the Company may not Register any other of its securities during such period (except for Registrations contemplated by Section 3.4 of this Exhibit).
2.4 Underwritten Offerings. If, in connection with a request to Register Registrable Securities under Section 2.1 or 2.2 hereof, the Initiating Holders seek to distribute such Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering, they shall so advise the Company as part of the request, and the Company shall include such information in the written notice to the other Holders described in Sections 2.1 and 2.2 hereof. In such event, the right of any Holder to include its Registrable Securities in such Registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwritten offering and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwritten offering (unless otherwise mutually agreed by a majority-in-interest of the Initiating Holders and such Holder, taken together) to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwritten offering shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters of internationally recognized standing selected for such underwritten offering by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the Holders of a majority of the voting power of all Registrable Securities proposed to be included in such Registration. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the managing underwriter advises the Company that marketing factors (including without limitation the aggregate number of securities requested to be Registered, the general condition of the market, and the status of the Persons proposing to sell securities pursuant to the Registration) require a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities to be underwritten in a Registration pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.2 hereof, the underwriters may (i) in the event the offering is the Company’s IPO, exclude from the underwritten offering all of the Registrable Securities (so long as the only securities included in such offering are those sold for the account of the Company), or (ii) otherwise exclude up to 75% of the Registrable Securities requested to be Registered but only after first excluding all other Equity Securities from the Registration and underwritten offering and so long as the number of Registrable Securities to be included in the Registration is allocated among all Holders in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable Securities requested by such Holders to be included. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwritten offering shall be withdrawn from the Registration. To facilitate the allocation of Shares in accordance with the above provisions, the Company or the underwriters may round the number of Shares allocated to a Holder to the nearest one hundred (100) Shares.
3. PIGGYBACK REGISTRATIONS.
3.1 Registration of the Company’s Securities. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, if the Company proposes to Register for its own account any of its Equity Securities, or for the account of any holder (other than a Holder) of Equity Securities any of such holder’s Equity Securities, in connection with the IPO of such securities (except as set forth in Section 3.4 hereof); the Company shall promptly give each Holder written notice of such Registration and, upon the written request of any Holder given within fifteen (15) days after delivery of such notice, the Company shall use its best efforts to include in such Registration any Registrable Securities thereby requested to be Registered by such Holder. If a Holder decides not to include all or any of its Registrable Securities in such Registration by the Company, such Holder 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, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. The Holders shall be entitled to an unlimited number of Registrations pursuant to this Section 3.1. The Company shall not grant to any other Shareholders any similar rights in this Section 3.1 superior to those of the Holders, except with the consent of the Holder(s) holding at least 50% or more of the issued and outstanding Preferred Shares, Class D Ordinary Shares, Class C Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares on an as-converted basis.
3.2 Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any Registration initiated by it under Section 3.1 hereof prior to the effectiveness of such Registration, whether or not any Holder has elected to participate therein. The expenses of such withdrawn Registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 4.3 hereof.
3.3 Underwriting Requirements.
(i) In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of the Company’s Equity Securities, the Company shall not be required to Register the Registrable Securities of a Holder under Section 3 hereof unless such Holder’s Registrable Securities are included in the underwritten offering and such Holder enters into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters of internationally recognized standing selected by the Company and setting forth such terms for the underwritten offering as have been agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters. In the event the underwriters advise Holders seeking Registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 3 hereof in writing that market factors (including the aggregate number of Registrable Securities requested to be Registered, the general condition of the market, and the status of the Persons proposing to sell securities pursuant to the Registration) require a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities to be underwritten, the underwriters may (i) in the event the offering is the Company’s IPO, exclude all of the Registrable Securities (so long as the only securities included in such offering are those sold for the account of the Company and no securities of other selling Shareholders are included), or (ii) otherwise exclude up to seventy-five percent (75%) of the Registrable Securities requested to be Registered but only after first excluding all other equity securities (except for securities sold for the account of the Company) from the Registration and underwriting and so long as the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such Registration is allocated among all Holders in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable Securities requested by such Holders to be included. To facilitate the allocation of Shares in accordance with the above provisions, the Company or the underwriters may round the number of Shares allocated to a Holder to the nearest one hundred (100) Shares.
(ii) If any Holder disapproves the terms of any underwriting, the Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriters delivered at least ten (10) days prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from the underwritten offering shall be withdrawn from the Registration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any Registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.2 hereof if the Registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be registered (in which case all participating Holders shall bear such expenses pro rata based upon the number of Registrable Securities that were to be included in the withdrawn registration), unless such withdrawal is due to an action or inaction of the Company or an event outside of the reasonable control of such Holders.
3.4 Exempt Transactions. The Company shall have no obligation to Register any Registrable Securities under Section 3 hereof in connection with a Registration by the Company (i) relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in a company share plan, or (ii) relating to a corporate reorganization or other transaction under Rule 145 of the Securities Act (or comparable provision under the Laws of another jurisdiction, as applicable).
4. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.
4.1 Registration Procedures and Obligations. Whenever required under this Agreement to effect the Registration of any Registrable Securities held by the Holders, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:
(i) Prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement with respect to those Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause that Registration Statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the Holders holding a majority of the Registrable Securities Registered thereunder, keep the Registration Statement effective for up to one hundred twenty (120) days or, if earlier, until the distribution thereunder has been completed; provided, however, that (a) such one hundred twenty (120) day period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period any Holder refrains from selling any Registrable Securities included in such Registration at the written request of the underwriter(s) for such Registration, and (b) in the case of any Registration of Registrable Securities on Form F-3 or Form S-3 that are intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed basis, subject to compliance with applicable rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, such one hundred twenty (120) day period shall be extended, if necessary, to keep the Registration Statement or such comparable form, as the case may be, effective until all such Registrable Securities are sold;
(ii) Prepare and file with the Commission amendments and supplements to that Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of applicable securities Laws with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by the Registration Statement;
(iii) Furnish to the Holders the number of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, required by applicable securities Laws, and any other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned by them;
(iv) Use its best efforts to Register and qualify the securities covered by the Registration Statement under the securities Laws of any jurisdiction, as reasonably requested by the Holders, provided, that the Company shall not be required to qualify to do business or file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdictions;
(v) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in customary form, with the managing underwriter(s) of the offering;
(vi) Promptly notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under applicable securities Laws of (a) the issuance of any stop order by the Commission, or (b) the happening of any event or the existence of any condition as a result of which any prospectus included in the 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 under which they were made, or if in the opinion of counsel for the Company it is necessary to supplement or amend such prospectus to comply with Law, and at the request of any such Holder promptly prepare and furnish to such Holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such securities, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made or such prospectus, as supplemented or amended, shall comply with Law;
(vii) Furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting Registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement, on the date that such Registrable Securities are allotted for sale in connection with a Registration pursuant to this Agreement, (i) an opinion, dated the date of the sale, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of the Registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering; and (ii) a comfort letter dated the date of the sale, 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, addressed to the underwriters;
(viii) Otherwise comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission to the extent applicable to the applicable registration statement and use its best efforts to make generally available to its security holders (or otherwise provide in accordance with Section 11(a) of the Securities Act) an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act, no later than forty-five (45) days after the end of a twelve (12) month period (or ninety (90) days, if such period is a fiscal year) beginning with the first month of the Company’s first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of such registration statement, which statement shall cover such twelve (12) month period, subject to any proper and necessary extensions;
(ix) Not, without the prior consent of the Holders of at least a majority of voting power of the then issued and outstanding Registrable Securities, make any offer relating to the securities that would constitute a “free writing prospectus”, as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act;
(x) Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities Registered pursuant to the Registration Statement and, where applicable, a number assigned by the Committee on Uniform Securities Identification Procedures for all those Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of the Registration; and
(xi) Take all reasonable actions necessary to list the Registrable Securities on the primary exchange on which the Company’s securities are then traded or, in connection with an IPO, the primary exchange on which the Company’s securities will be traded.
4.2 Information from Holder. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Securities of any selling Holder that such Holder 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 required to effect the Registration of such Holder’s Registrable Securities.
4.3 Expenses of Registration. All expenses, other than the underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement (which shall be borne by the Holders requesting Registration on a pro rata basis in proportion to their respective numbers of Registrable Securities sold in such Registration), incurred in connection with Registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to this Agreement, including (without limitation) all Registration, filing and qualification fees, printers’ and accounting fees, fees charged by any share registration and/or depository agent, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and reasonable fees and disbursement of one counsel for all selling Holders, shall be borne by the Company. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay for any expenses of any Registration proceeding begun pursuant to this Agreement if the Registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of a majority-in-interest of the Holders requesting such Registration (in which case all participating Holders shall bear such expenses pro rata based upon the number of Registrable Securities that were to be thereby Registered in the withdrawn Registration). In addition, the Company shall not be required to pay for expense for any special audit conducted for the purpose of such Registration in excess of US$25,000 (in which case, all participating Holders shall bear such excess special audit expense pro rata based upon the number of Registrable Securities to be Registered in such Registration).
5. REGISTRATION-RELATED INDEMNIFICATION.
5.1 Company Indemnity.
(i) To the maximum extent permitted by Law and the Memorandum and Articles, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, such Holder’s partners, officers, directors, shareholders and legal counsel, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) and each Person, if any, who controls (as defined in the Securities Act) such Holder or underwriter, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under Laws which are applicable to the Company and relate to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any Registration, qualification, or compliance, insofar as such 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”): (a) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such Registration Statement, on the effective date thereof (including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto), (b) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement, on the effective date thereof (including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto), a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (c) any violation or alleged violation of applicable securities Laws, or any rule or regulation promulgated under applicable securities Laws. The Company will reimburse each such Holder, underwriter or controlling Person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action.
(ii) The indemnity agreement contained in Section 5.1 hereof 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 or delayed), 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 solely out of or is solely based upon a Violation that occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished in a certificate expressly for use in connection with such Registration by any such Holder, such Holder’s partners, officers, directors, and legal counsel, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) and each Person, if any, who controls (as defined in the Securities Act) such Holder or underwriter. Further, the foregoing indemnity agreement with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Holder or other aforementioned Person, or any Person controlling such Holder, from whom the Person asserting any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities purchased shares in the offering, if a copy of the most current prospectus was not sent or given by or on behalf of such Holder or other aforementioned Person to such Person, if required by Law to have been so delivered, at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the shares to such Person, and if the prospectus (as so amended or supplemented) would have cured the defect giving rise to such loss, claim, damage or liability.
5.2 Holder Indemnity.
(i) To the maximum extent permitted by Law, each selling Holder that has included Registrable Securities in a Registration will, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, legal counsel and accountants, any underwriter, any other Holder selling securities in connection with such Registration and each Person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act) the Company, such underwriter or other Holder, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which any of the foregoing Persons may become subject, under applicable securities Laws, or any rule or regulation promulgated under applicable securities Laws, insofar as such 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 such Holder in a certificate expressly for use in connection with such Registration; and each such Holder will reimburse any Person intended to be indemnified pursuant to Section 5.2 hereof, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. No Holder’s liability under Section 5.2 hereof shall exceed the net proceeds (less underwriting discounts and selling commissions) received by such Holder from the offering of securities made in connection with that Registration.
(ii) The indemnity contained in Section 5.2 hereof 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 Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
5.3 Notice of Indemnification Claim. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Section 5.1 or 5.2 hereof of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under Section 5.1 or 5.2 hereof, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof 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 indemnifying parties. An indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties that may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the reasonably incurred fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver a written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party, to the extent so prejudiced, of any liability to the indemnified party under Section 5 hereof, but the omission to deliver a 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 5 of this Exhibit.
5.4 Contribution. If any indemnification provided for in Section 5.1 or 5.2 hereof is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to herein, the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and of the indemnified party, on the other, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. No Holder’s liability under Section 5.4 hereof, when combined with such Holder’s liability under Section 5.2 hereof, shall exceed the net proceeds (less underwriting discounts and selling commissions) received by such Holder from the offering of securities made in connection with that Registration.
5.5 Underwriting Agreement. To the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control.
5.6 Survival. The obligations of the Company and Holders under Section 5 hereof shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement under this Agreement.
6. ADDITIONAL REGISTRATION-RELATED UNDERTAKINGS.
6.1 Reports under the Exchange Act. With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and any comparable provision of any applicable securities Laws that may at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without Registration or pursuant to a Registration on Form F-3 or Form S-3 (or any comparable form in a jurisdiction other than the United States), the Company agrees to:
(i) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 (or comparable provision, if any, under applicable securities Laws in any jurisdiction where the Company’s securities are listed), at all times following ninety (90) days after the effective date of the first Registration under the Securities Act filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to the general public;
(ii) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under all applicable securities Laws; and

6.2 Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. From and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Preferred Majority, enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any Equity Securities of the Company that would allow such holder or prospective holder (i) to include such Equity Securities in any Registration filed under Section 2 or 3 hereof, unless under the terms of such agreement such holder or prospective holder may include such Equity Securities in any such Registration only to the extent that the inclusion of such Equity Securities will not reduce the amount of the Registrable Securities of the Holders that are included, (ii) to demand Registration of their Equity Securities, or (iii) cause the Company to include such Equity Securities in any Registration filed under Section 2 or 3 hereof on a basis pari passu with or more favorable to such holder or prospective holder than is provided to the Holders of Registrable Securities.
6.3 “Market Stand-Off” Agreement. Each Shareholder agrees, if so required by the managing underwriter(s), that it will not during the period commencing on the date of the final prospectus relating to the Company’s IPO and ending on the date specified by the Company and the managing underwriter (such period not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of such final prospectus) (i) lend, offer, pledge, hypothecate, hedge, sell, make any short sale of, loan, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Equity Securities of the Company (other than those included in such offering) or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Equity Securities of the Company, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by allotment of Equity Securities of the Company or such other securities, in cash or otherwise; provided, that (x) all directors, officers and all other holders of at least 1% of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company must be bound by restrictions at least as restrictive as those applicable to any such holder pursuant to Section 6.3 hereof, (y) Section 6.3 hereof shall not apply to the extent that any other members subject to substantially similar restrictions are released, and (z) the lockup agreements shall permit such holders to transfer their Registrable Securities to their respective Affiliates so long as the transferees enters into the same lockup agreement. The underwriters in connection with the Company’s IPO are intended third party beneficiaries of Section 6.3 hereof and shall have the right, power and authority to enforce the provisions hereof as though they were a party hereto. In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may place restrictive legends on the certificates and impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Registrable Securities of each Shareholder (and the Shares or securities of every other Person subject to the foregoing restriction) until the end of such period.
6.4 Termination of Registration Rights. The registration rights set forth in Sections 2 and 3 hereof above shall terminate on the later of (i) the fifth (5th) anniversary after the date of closing of a QIPO, and (ii) with respect to any Holder, the date following a QIPO on which such Holder holds less than 1% of the Equity Securities of the Company and all Registrable Securities may be sold under Rule 144 of the Securities Act in any ninety (90)-day period.
6.5 Exercise of Preferred Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in this Agreement, the Company shall have no obligation to register Registrable Securities which, have not been exercised, converted or exchanged, as applicable, for Class A Ordinary Shares.
7. JURISDICTION.
The terms of this Exhibit are drafted primarily in contemplation of an offering of securities in the United States of America. The Parties recognize, however, the possibility that securities may be qualified or registered for offering to the public in a jurisdiction other than the United States of America where registration rights have significance or that the Company might effect an offering in the United States of America in the form of American depositary receipts or American depositary shares. Accordingly:
(i) It is their intention that, whenever this Exhibit or any other provision of this Agreement refers to a Law, form, process or institution of the United States of America but the Parties wish to effectuate qualification or registration in a different jurisdiction where registration rights have significance, such references to the Laws or institutions of the United States shall be read as referring, mutatis mutandis, to the comparable Laws or institutions of the jurisdiction in question; and
(ii) It is agreed that the Company will not undertake any listing of American depositary receipts, American depositary shares or any other security derivative of the Company’s Class A Ordinary Shares unless arrangements have been made reasonably satisfactory to a majority-in-interest of the Shareholders to ensure that the spirit and intent of this Agreement will be realized and that the Company is committed to take such actions as are necessary such that the Shareholders will enjoy rights corresponding to the rights hereunder to sell their Registrable Securities in a public offering in the United States of America as if the Company had listed Class A Ordinary Shares in lieu of such derivative securities.
8. ASSIGNMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.
The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Exhibit may be assigned (but only with all related obligations) by (i) a Holder that is a partnership, to any partner, retired partner or Affiliated fund of such Holder, (ii) a Holder that is a limited liability company, to any member or former member of such Holder, (iii) a Holder who is an individual, to such Holder’s family member or trust for the benefit of such Holder or such Holder’s family member, (iv) a Holder that is a corporation to its shareholders in accordance with their interests in the corporation, (v) a Holder in respect of transfer of all securities held by such Holder, or (vi) to any other Person acquiring at least 100,000 shares (as appropriately adjusted for any share split, dividend, combination or other recapitalization or like transactions) of Registrable Securities; provided (in all cases) (a) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned; (b) such transferee or assignee agrees in writing to be bound by and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and (c) such assignments shall be effective only if immediately following such transfer the further disposition of such securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted under the Securities Act.
