If the number of the unvested Restricted Shares is less than the number of Restricted Shares that the Company may reacquire, the Company may reacquire the vested Restricted Shares; if still insufficient, the Grantee or Mr. Xianle Ni shall pay the difference between the unpaid penalties and the value of the repurchased Restricted Shares in cash.
7. Withholding of Taxes. The Grantee shall be wholly responsible to satisfy its own tax obligations arising from the grant of the Restricted Shares. However, the Grantee authorizes the Company to deduct or withhold an amount sufficient to satisfy applicable national, state, local and foreign taxes arising from the grant of the Restricted Shares if the laws burden the Company or its affiliate with the tax obligations arising from the grant of the Restricted Shares. The Grantee further authorizes the Company or its affiliate to withhold a number of the Restricted Shares upon the distribution of the Restricted Shares otherwise to be delivered with a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount of the tax obligations arising from the grant of the Restricted Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, the Committee has discretion in determining whether or not the Grantee have satisfied or performed, fully or otherwise, the Grantee’s tax obligations.
8. Personal Data. The Grantee acknowledge and consent to the collection, use, processing and transfer of personal data as described in this paragraph. The Company and its affiliates hold certain information, including the Grantee’s name, address and telephone number, nationality, any shares awarded, cancelled, purchased, vested, unvested or outstanding, or any other relevant information for the purpose of administering the Restricted Share Purchase Agreement (“Data”). The Company and its affiliates will transfer Data to any third parties assisting the Company in the implementation and administration of the Restricted Share Purchase Agreement. These recipients may be located in the PRC or elsewhere such as the European Economic Area or the United States. The Grantee authorize them to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing and administering the Grantee’s participation in the Restricted Share Purchase Agreement, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required for the administration of the Restricted Share Purchase Agreement and/or the subsequent holding of shares on the Grantee’s behalf to a broker or other third party with whom the Grantee may elect to deposit any shares acquired pursuant to the Restricted Share Purchase Agreement. The Grantee may, at any time, review Data, require any necessary amendments to it or withdraw the consent herein in writing by contacting the Company; however, withdrawing the consent may affect the Grantee’s ability to participate in the Restricted Share Purchase Agreement.
9. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the state of New York.
10. Language. This Agreement is written in English, and any Chinese translation (if any) provided is for convenience purposes only. In the event of any discrepancy between the English portion of this Agreement and the Chinese translation, the English portion shall govern.
