“THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AS SET FORTH IN A SHAREHOLDERS’ AGREEMENT DATED AS OF MARCH 19, 2003, AS AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICES OF THE ISSUER.

(b) Any Shareholder who owns shares of Common Stock issued prior to the date hereof has delivered to the Company its certificates representing such shares in exchange for certificates representing shares of Common Stock bearing the legend set forth in Section 3.01(a).

(c) In the event that any shares of Common Stock shall cease to be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall, upon the written request of the holder thereof, issue to such holder a new certificate evidencing such Common Stock without the legend required by Section 3.01(a).

SECTION 3.02 Certain Restrictions on Sale and Encumbrance

(a) (i) As long as GE remains a Shareholder, no other Shareholder shall, without the prior written consent of GE, directly or indirectly make or solicit any Sale of, or create, incur or assume any Encumbrance with respect to, any Common Stock owned by such other Shareholder to or in favor of any GE Competitor.

(ii) As long as Meditech remains a Shareholder, no other Shareholder shall, without the prior written consent of Meditech, directly or indirectly make or solicit any Sale of, or create, incur or assume any Encumbrance with respect to, any Common Stock owned by such other Shareholder to or in favor of any Meditech Competitor.

(b) No Shareholder shall, directly or indirectly (through the transfer of capital stock of any Person that holds, or controls any Person that holds, such Common Stock), make or solicit any Sale of any Common Stock owned by such Shareholder, other than any Sale to a Permitted Transferee or any Sale in accordance with this Article 3. No Sale of Common Stock to a Permitted Transferee shall be effective if a purpose or effect of such Sale shall have been to circumvent the provisions of this Section 3.02.

(c) No Shareholder shall create, incur or assume any Encumbrance with respect to any Common Stock owned by such Shareholder without the prior written consent of each Significant Shareholder.

SECTION 3.03 Rights of First Refusal

(a) Subject to the rights of GE and Meditech under Sections 3.02(a), 3.04 and 3.05, if at any time during the term of this Agreement any Shareholder receives from or otherwise negotiates with a Third Party a bona fide offer (an “Offer”) to purchase any Common Stock held by such Shareholder, prior to consummating such Sale such Shareholder (the “Prospective Seller”) shall provide the other Shareholders (the “Other Shareholders”) with written notice of such Offer (an “Offer Notice”). The Offer Notice shall identify the Third Party making the Offer, the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased in the Offer (the “Offered Shares”), the price per share of Common Stock to be paid (the “Offer Price”), the form of consideration proposed to be paid and all other material terms and conditions of the Offer.

(b) If the Offer Price specified in an Offer Notice is payable in property other than cash, the Other Shareholders shall have the right to pay the Offer Price in cash in an amount equal to the value of such property at the time of payment. If the Prospective Seller and the Other Shareholders who wish to purchase the Offered Shares (acting together) cannot agree on the cash value of such property within ten days after such Other Shareholders’ receipt of the Offer Notice, the value of such property shall be determined by an appraiser of recognized standing selected jointly by the Prospective Seller and such Other Shareholders (acting together). If they cannot agree on an appraiser within 20 days after receipt of the Offer Notice, within a further five-day period, the Prospective Seller and such Other Shareholders (acting together ) shall each select an appraiser of recognized standing and the two appraisers shall designate a third appraiser of recognized standing to determine the value of such property. The value of such property shall be determined by the appraiser selected pursuant to this Section 3.03(b) within one month from its appointment, and such determination shall be final and binding on the Prospective Seller and such Other Shareholders. The cost of such appraisal shall be shared equally by the Prospective Seller, on the one hand, and such Other Shareholders, on the other hand (each Other Shareholder shall pay its pro rata portion of such costs based on the number of Offered Shares acquired by each such Other Shareholder). If the Offer Period as specified in Section 3.03(c)(ii) has expired but for the determination of the value of the Offer Price offered by the Prospective Seller, then the Offer Period shall be extended to the fifth Business Day after such valuation shall have been determined to be final and binding pursuant to this Section 3.03(b).

(c) (i) The receipt of an Offer Notice by the Other Shareholders from a Prospective Seller shall constitute an offer by such Prospective Seller to sell to such Other Shareholders at the Offer Price any or all of the Offered Shares pro rata, in accordance with the following formula. Each such Other Shareholder shall be entitled to purchase, upon the terms specified in the Offer Notice, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to (x) the number of Offered Shares multiplied by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such Other Shareholder and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock owned by all Other Shareholders who wish to purchase Offered Shares. If any Other Shareholder wishes to purchase less than all the shares of Common Stock such Other Shareholder is entitled to purchase in accordance with the preceding sentence, the shares of Common Stock such Other Shareholder declines to purchase shall be allocated among the Other Shareholders who wish to purchase such additional Common Stock (the “Additional Common Stock”) according to the same formula, mutatis mutandis.

(ii) Such offer shall remain open and irrevocable for a period of 30 days after receipt of the Offer Notice by the Other Shareholders (as may be extended pursuant to Section 3.03(b), the “Offer Period”). Each Other Shareholder may accept the offer by sending a written notice of election (the “Notice of Election”) to the Prospective Seller with a copy to the Other Shareholders prior to expiration of the Offer Period. The Notice of Election shall specify the maximum number of shares of Common Stock such Other Shareholder is willing to purchase pursuant to this Section 3.03, including any shares of Additional Common Stock, if any, and any other terms and conditions not inconsistent with this Agreement. Upon expiration of the Offer Period the Prospective Seller shall allocate in accordance with this Section 3.03 any shares to be sold pursuant to this Section 3.03 and promptly notify each Other Shareholder of its determination.

(iii) If an Other Shareholder (an “Accepting Party”) agrees with the Prospective Seller’s allocation of Offered Shares in accordance with Section 3.03(c)(ii) (the “Accepted Shares”) it shall, within five days of receipt of the Prospective Seller’s notice delivered in accordance with Section 3.03(c)(ii), purchase from the Prospective Seller, and the Prospective Seller shall sell to such Accepting Party, the Accepted Shares at the Offer Price and in accordance with all the material terms and conditions of the Offer set out in the Offer Notice; provided that the Accepting Party may pay the Offer Price in cash in amount equal to the value of any property included in the Offer Price determined pursuant to subparagraph (b) above.

(d) The Prospective Seller and each Accepting Party shall determine a closing date for the sale of the Accepted Shares, which date shall be no later than 30 days after the expiration of the Offer Period (or longer if required by applicable Law). At the closing, the Prospective Seller shall, against delivery of the applicable purchase price, deliver to the Accepting Party certificates evidencing the Offered Shares being sold to such Accepting Party, duly endorsed and, if applicable, accompanied by written instruments of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to such Accepting Party, duly executed by the Prospective Seller free and clear of any and all Encumbrances (other than Encumbrances imposed by this Agreement).

(e) Any Offered Shares not purchased by Accepting Parties pursuant to this Section 3.03 (whether as a result of a failure of any Other Shareholder to exercise its rights hereunder or to comply with the timing obligations hereunder) may be sold by the Prospective Seller to the Third Party specified in Section 3.03(a) at a price not lower than that contained in the Notice of Election and on terms not more favorable to such Third Party than were contained in the Notice of Election. Such sale must be completed within 60 days (or longer if required by applicable Law) after the expiration of the Offer Period. In any event, if such Sale is not completed within 90 days after the expiration of the Offered Period, the Prospective Seller shall no longer be permitted to sell such Offered Shares pursuant to this Section 3.03 without again fully complying with the provisions of this Section 3.03 and all the restrictions on sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition contained in this Agreement shall again be in effect.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.03, the provisions of this Section 3.03 shall not apply to (i) any Sale to a Permitted Transferee, and (ii) any Sale by a Shareholder, other than a Significant Shareholder, to Chengxuan or its Affiliates.

SECTION 3.04 Co-Sale Rights/Tag Along Rights

(a) Subject to the rights of GE and Meditech under Section 3.02, if, at any time, and from time to time, Chengxuan or an Affiliate of Chengxuan (a “Chengxuan Entity”) desires to make a Sale of all or part of the shares of Common Stock held by the Chengxuan Entity to any Person (the “Proposed Transferee”), the Chengxuan Entity shall, prior to consummating such Sale and prior to delivery of any Offer Notice pursuant to Section 3.03, provide GE and Meditech with written notice of such proposed Sale (the “Sale Offer”). The Sale Offer shall contain (i) the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be transferred pursuant to such Sale (the “Designated Shares”), (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock to be held by the Chengxuan Entity on its own, and by Chengxuan and its Affiliates in the aggregate, after consummation of the Sale to the Proposed Transferee, (iii) the name and address of the Proposed Transferee, and (iv) the proposed purchase price, terms and payment and other material terms and conditions of the Proposed Transferee’s offer.

(b) (i) If, following the Sale of the Designated Shares to the Proposed Transferee, Chengxuan, its Affiliates and GE would collectively own less than 50% of the outstanding Capital Stock of the Company, on a fully-diluted basis, then GE shall have the right to require that the Proposed Transferee purchase, and the Chengxuan Entity shall be obligated to cause the Proposed Transferee to purchase, at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as offered by the Proposed Transferee to the Chengxuan Entity, all or a portion of the shares of Common Stock held by GE.

(ii) If GE exercises its co-sale right to sell all but not less than all of its shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.04(b)(i), then Meditech shall also have the right to require that the Proposed Transferee purchase, and the Chengxuan Entity shall be obligated to cause the Proposed Transferee to purchase, at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as offered by the Proposed Transferee to the Chengxuan Entity, all of the shares of Common Stock held by Meditech.

(iii) If GE exercises its co-sale right to sell a portion of its shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.04(b)(i), then Meditech shall also have the right to require that the Proposed Transferee purchase, and the Chengxuan Entity shall be obligated to cause the Proposed Transferee to purchase, at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as offered by the Proposed Transferee to the Chengxuan Entity, a fraction of all shares of Common Stock held by Meditech, of which the number of shares of Common Stock GE elects to sell is the numerator and the total number of shares of Common Stock held by GE prior to such sale is the denominator.

(c) (i) If, following the Sale of the Designated Shares to the Proposed Transferee, Chengxuan, its Affiliates and GE would collectively own 50% or more of the outstanding Capital Stock of the Company, on a fully-diluted basis, then GE shall have the right to require that the Proposed Transferee purchase, and the Chengxuan Entity shall be obligated to cause the Proposed Transferee to purchase, at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as offered by the Proposed Transferee to the Chengxuan Entity, a portion of the shares of Common Stock held by GE calculated on a pro rata basis in accordance with the formula set forth in Section 3.04(c)(iii).

(ii) If GE exercises its tag-along right pursuant to Section 3.04(c)(i), then Meditech shall also have the right to require that the Proposed Transferee purchase, and the Chengxuan Entity shall be obligated to cause the Proposed Transferee to purchase, at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as offered by the Proposed Transferee to the Chengxuan Entity, a portion of the shares of Common Stock held by Meditech calculated on a pro rata basis in accordance with the formula set forth in Section 3.04(c)(iv).

(d) For a period of fifteen (15) Business Days after the Sale Offer is made (the “Response Period”), GE and Meditech may exercise their co-sale rights under paragraph (b) above or their tag-along rights pursuant to paragraph (c) above, as applicable, by separately delivering a written notice to the Chengxuan Entity (with a copy to GE or Meditech, as applicable) stating (i) GE or Meditech’s, as applicable, determination to exercise its rights hereunder and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased by the Proposed Transferee from GE or Meditech, as applicable. GE shall also notify Meditech within ten (10) Business Days after the Sale Offer is made if it intends to exercise its co-sale right or tag-along right pursuant to this Section 3.04.

(e) If, at the end of the Response Period, GE has not given notice to the Chengxuan Entity of its decision to exercise its rights hereunder, then the Chengxuan Entity shall have 45 days (which period may be extended to the extent necessary to obtain required governmental approvals for such Sale) in which to sell the Designated Shares to the Proposed Transferee at a price not higher than that contained in the Sale Offer and on terms not more favorable to the Chengxuan Entity than were contained in the Sale Offer. Promptly after any sale pursuant to this Section 3.04, the Chengxuan Entity shall notify GE, Meditech and the Company of the consummation thereof and shall furnish such evidence of the completion (including time of completion) of such sale and of the terms thereof as GE, Meditech or the Company may reasonably request.

(f) If at the end of any such 45 day period provided for in this Section 3.04, the Chengxuan Entity has not completed the sale of the Designated Shares, the Chengxuan Entity shall no longer be permitted to sell such Designated Shares pursuant to this Section 3.04 without again fully complying with the provisions of this Section 3.04 and all the restrictions on sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition contained in this Agreement shall again be in effect. Chengxuan shall be responsible for ensuring that its Affiliates comply with the terms of this Section 3.04.

SECTION 5.01 New Investors to Execute Agreement

The Company shall not issue any Common Stock, unless, prior to the consummation of any such issuance, each Person to whom such Common Stock is proposed to be issued executes this Agreement and delivers a copy of this Agreement to the Company and each Shareholder. Upon the execution and delivery by such Person of this Agreement, such Person shall be deemed a “Shareholder” for purposes of this Agreement and shall have the rights and be subject to the obligations of a Shareholder under this Agreement.

SECTION 5.02 Rights to Purchase New Securities

(a) In the event that the Company proposes to issue New Securities to a Person (the “Proposed Offeree”) prior to, and other than in connection with, an Initial Public Offering, each Shareholder shall have the right to purchase, in lieu of the Proposed Offeree, in accordance with paragraph (b) below, a number of New Securities equal to the product of (i) the total number of New Securities which the Company proposes to issue at such time and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock which such Shareholder owns at such time, and the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding prior to such proposed issue of New Securities. The rights given by the Company under this Section 5.02(a) shall terminate if unexercised within 30 days after receipt of the Notice of Issuance referred to in paragraph (b) below.

(b) In the event that the Company proposes to issue New Securities in accordance with this Section 5.02, it shall give written notice (a “Notice of Issuance”) of its intention to each Shareholder, describing the price and all material terms and conditions of the New Securities and the issuance thereof. Each Shareholder shall have the right, for a period of 30 days (which period may be extended pursuant to Section 5.02(f)) from the date of delivery of the Notice of Issuance, by delivery of written notice to the Company (the “Exercise Notice”), to purchase all or a portion of its pro rata share of such New Securities (as determined pursuant to paragraph (a) above) at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as stated in the Notice of Issuance. In the Exercise Notice, the Shareholder shall state the number of New Securities such Shareholder wishes to purchase, including whether such Shareholder wishes to exercise its right of reallotment pursuant to Section 5.02(c).

(c) Each Shareholder shall have a right of reallotment such that, if any Shareholder fails to exercise its right to purchase New Securities or fails to purchase such Shareholder’s full pro rata share of the New Securities, the other participating Shareholders, who have indicated in their Exercise Notice an interest in purchasing realloted New Securities, shall purchase as many of the New Securities not previously purchased (the “Reallotment Securities”) as such Shareholders, in the aggregate, indicated an interest in purchasing in their Exercise Notices, which Reallotment Securities shall be allocated to them pro rata based on the respective amounts of the Reallotment Securities so indicated in their Exercise Notice.

(d) Any New Securities not elected to be purchased by the Shareholders pursuant to Sections 5.02(a) through (c) hereof may be sold by the Company to the Proposed Offeree on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Notice of Issuance.

(e) If a Shareholder delivers an Exercise Notice, then the payment of New Securities shall be by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as may be designated by the Company, against delivery of the New Securities to be purchased at a place agreed upon between the parties and at the time of the scheduled closing therefor, which shall be no later than forty-five (45) days after the date of the Exercise Notice (which period may be extended as required by applicable Law or to account for any valuation dispute pursuant to Section 5.02(f)).

(f) If the purchase price specified in the Notice of Issuance is payable in property other than cash, the Shareholders shall have the right to pay the purchase price in cash in an amount equal to the value of such property at the time of payment. If the Company and any Shareholders who wish to purchase the New Securities cannot agree on the cash value of such property within ten days after the Shareholders’ receipt of the Sale Offer, the value of such property shall be determined by an appraiser of recognized standing selected jointly by the Company and such Shareholders (acting together). If they cannot agree on an appraiser within 20 days after receipt of the Notice of Issuance, within a further five-day period, the Company and such Shareholders (acting together) shall each select an appraiser of recognized standing and the two appraisers shall designate a third appraiser of recognized standing to determine the value of such property. The value of such property determined by the appraiser selected pursuant to this Section 5.02(f) shall be final and binding on the Company and the Shareholders. The cost of such appraisal shall be shared equally by the Company, on the one hand, and such Shareholders, on the other hand (each Shareholder shall pay its pro rata portion of such costs based on the number of New Securities acquired by such Shareholder). If the time for delivery of the Exercise Notice as specified in Section 5.02(b) has expired but for the determination of the value of the purchase price offered by the Prospective Transferee, then such time shall be extended to the fifth Business Day after such valuation shall have been made pursuant to this Section 5.02(f).

(g) As long as (i) GE remains a Shareholder, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of GE, issue any New Securities to any Person that is a GE Competitor and (ii) Meditech remains a Shareholder, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Meditech, issue any New Securities to any Person that is a Meditech Competitor.
