Where any of such percentage ratios exceeds zero point one per cent (0.1%) but all are less than five per cent (5%), such contract, arrangement or understanding shall constitute “material related party transactions” for the purposes of clause 7.1.3;
8.2.2 | without the prior written approval of holders in aggregate of more than fifty per cent (50%) of the Shares held by the C-round Investors and the Investors (on an as-converted basis) taken as a whole: |
(i) | in respect of any Significant Subsidiary, either: |
(a) | dispose of, or agree to dispose of, thirty per cent (30%) or more of its shares, securities, voting rights or any other interests; or |
(b) | issue, or agree to issue, such number of shares or other securities carrying voting or economic rights representing thirty per cent (30%) or more of its total fully diluted share capital or any other equity rights, |
in each case as part of one transaction or a series of related transactions, unless such disposal or issuance is made to a Group Company directly or indirectly (including by way of variable interest entity (VIE) arrangements) wholly-owned by the Company; or
(c) | amend, or agree to amend, any provision of any of the Convertible Promissory Notes which relates to, or is likely to impact, the Conversion Price. |
8.2.3 | Notwithstanding clause 8.2.1(ii), where any one or more of the applicable percentage ratios referred to therein exceed five per cent (5%), the Company (or the Group Company, as the case may be) shall be entitled to enter into, or agree to enter into, such contract, arrangement or understanding, provided that the Company has first obtained the prior written approval of holders in aggregate of more than fifty per cent (50%) of the Shares held by the Shareholders and the Investors (on an as-converted basis) taken as a whole, which do not have a material interest in such contract, arrangement or understanding. For the purposes of this clause 8.2.3 only, each of the Ping An Shareholders and Tun Kung (and each of their respective Affiliates) shall be considered to have a material interest in any contract, arrangement or understanding proposed to be entered into with: |
(i) | any member of the Ping An Group; |
(ii) | Tun Kung; and/or |
(iii) | any of their respective Affiliates, |
12
and, accordingly, shall not be entitled to approve such contract, arrangement or understanding in accordance with this clause 8.2.3.
9. | RIGHT TO SUBSCRIBE FOR NEW SECURITIES |
9.1 | Subject to and upon the Shareholders resolving to issue new shares or other securities in the Company, the Company shall issue a notice (the “Subscription Notice”) to each of the Investors. Each of the Investors (or, at the election of the relevant Investor, any of its Affiliates), together with the Shareholders, shall have the option (but not the obligation) at its own discretion to decide, within thirty (30) days upon receipt of the Subscription Notice, to subscribe for all or part of new shares or other securities in proportion to their as-converted shareholding percentage (the computation of which shall, in the case of Tun Kung, exclude the ESOP Shares) in the Company on the terms stated on the Subscription Notice. It is a condition of such subscription by an Affiliate of any Investor that such Affiliate shall provide evidence of its Affiliate relationship with the relevant Investor. |
9.2 | If any of the Investors (or their respective Affiliates, as the case may be) (each a “Partially-Subscribing Party”) does not choose to fully subscribe for its pro rata portion of the new shares or other securities, and any other Shareholder or Investor (or its Affiliate, as the case may be) (each a “Fully-Subscribing Party”) chooses to fully subscribe for its pro rata portion of the new shares or other securities, then the Fully-Subscribing Party shall have the option (but not the obligation) to subscribe for those new shares or other securities not already subscribed for by the Partially-Subscribing Party, in proportion to their relative as-converted shareholding percentage (the computation of which shall, in the case of Tun Kung, exclude the ESOP Shares) in the Company before issuance of the new shares or other securities and on the terms stated on the Subscription Notice. |
9.3 | In respect of any new shares or other securities that are not subscribed for following the aforementioned procedures, the Company shall have the right to issue and allot such new shares or other securities to any third parties on terms and conditions not more favourable than those stated on the Subscription Notice within one hundred and twenty (120) days from the earlier of (i) the lapse of the Subscription Notice, or (ii) the date the last Fully-Subscribing Party indicates its decision not to subscribe for the available new shares or other securities, provided that any such third party(ies) subscribing for such new shares or other securities shall execute a deed of adherence in the form approved by the Company. |
9.4 | If the Company (i) proposes to issue and allot the available new shares or other securities to third parties on terms and conditions more favourable than those stated in the Subscription Notice, or (ii) does not issue and allot the available new shares or other securities, the Company shall issue subscription notices to all Investors in respect of all new shares or other securities following the aforementioned procedures in this clause 9. |
9.5 | For the purposes of this Agreement, “Affiliate” means, with respect to a person, any other person that, directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such person; “control” (including with correlative meanings, the terms “controlling”, “controlled by” and “under common control with”), as used with respect to any person, means (i) the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such person, whether through the ownership of voting securities or by contract or otherwise or (ii) the ownership of more than fifty per cent (50%) of a person’s voting securities. For the purpose of this Agreement only: the Affiliates of the Shareholders do not include the Company; the Affiliates of the C-round Lead Investor shall be deemed to include the C-round Lead Investor Affiliate; the Affiliates of the C-round Lead Investor Affiliate shall be deemed to include the C-round Lead Investor. |
13
9.6 | For the purposes of this clause 9, new shares or securities do not include: |
9.6.1 | shares converted from the Company’s capital reserves (if applicable); |
9.6.2 | shares issued by the Company in connection with a Qualified Listing; |
9.6.3 | Notes issued by the Company pursuant to the Securities Exchange Agreement; or |
9.6.4 | shares or securities issued for the purposes of acquiring all or substantially all assets of another company or entity, or a merger representing fifty per cent (50%) or more of the voting rights, asset acquisition or other shares or securities for restructuring. |
9.7 | For the purposes of this clause 9, rights given to the Investors do not apply to the ESOP Shares and the Investors’ right under this clause 9 shall be determined by reference to the total issued Shares of the Company without taking into account the ESOP Shares. |
10. | TRANSFER OF NOTES |
10.1 | Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, on and after the Closing: |
10.1.1 | the Investors shall not Transfer any Notes in any way without complying with this clause 10; |
10.1.2 | no Notes may be Transferred to any person who is not already an Investor, unless the proposed transferee has executed a Deed of Adherence; |
10.1.3 | save for any Transfer required as part of the Company’s corporate restructuring to be conducted in connection with such Qualified Listing; provided that if, the Company proposes to conduct a Qualified Listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, any Transfer of Notes pursuant to this clause 10 shall be completed prior to the date falling twenty-eight (28) clear days before the date of the first submission by the Company of its listing application to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange; provided further that, for the avoidance of doubt, upon the occurrence of any withdrawal, rejection, return or lapse of such Company’s listing application to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, the right of any Investor to Transfer any Notes pursuant to this clause 10 shall be restored in its entirety; and |
10.1.4 | any Transfer of Notes not made in compliance with this Agreement shall be null and void as against the Company, shall not be recorded on the books of the Company and shall not be recognized by the Company. |
10.2 | Transfer of Notes by Investors |
10.2.1 | Subject to clause 10.3, if any Investor (the “Transferring Investor”) intends to Transfer to any person on and after the date of this Agreement, other than to (i) an Affiliate of such Transferring Investor in accordance with clause 10.4 or (ii) any Ping An Shareholder, Tun Kung or any of their respective Affiliates, all or part of any principal amount of any Note held by such Transferring Investor (the “Sale Note”), each of the other Investors (the “Non-Transferring Investors”) shall have the right of first offer to purchase all or part of the Sale Note subject to, and in accordance with, this clause 10.2 (the “Right of First Offer”). |
14
10.2.2 | The Transferring Investor shall issue a notice (the “Transfer Notice”) to each of the Non-Transferring Investors of its intention to make a Transfer of the Sale Note. |
10.2.3 | If any Non-Transferring Investor wishes to purchase any of the Sale Note, it shall, within twenty (20) days of the date of the Transfer Notice (the “Offer Closing Date”), send a notice to the Transferring Investor (a “Purchase Notice”), which shall be irrevocable, containing: |
(i) | an offer to purchase (a) such portion of the Sale Note as reflects the principal amount of the Notes then held by such Non-Transferring Investor as a proportion of the total principal amount of the Notes then held by all the Non-Transferring Investors and (b) any portion of the principal amount of the Sale Note for which the other Non-Transferring Investors do not make an offer (the “Excess Sale Note”) ((a) and (b) together, the “Offer”); and |
(ii) | the terms on which such Non-Transferring Investor is prepared to make the Offer, including the consideration offered for the Sale Note. |
10.2.4 | If any Non-Transferring Investor does not wish to make an Offer, it may either: (i) send a notice to the Transferring Investor before the Offer Closing Date declining to make an Offer; or (ii) do nothing in which case, following the Offer Closing Date, it shall be considered not to have made an Offer. If any Non-Transferring Investor does not send a Purchase Notice on or before the Offer Closing Date to the Transferring Investor, the Offer of any other Non-Transferring Investor which has sent a Purchase Notice in accordance with clause 10.2.3 shall be deemed to include an offer to purchase the Excess Sale Note reflecting the principal amount of the Sale Note it offered to buy in such Purchase Notice as a proportion of the total principal amount of the Sale Note in respect of which Purchase Notices were sent in accordance with clause 10.2.3. |
10.2.5 | Within thirty (30) days of the Offer Closing Date, the Transferring Investor shall send a notice to any Non-Transferring Investor which has sent a Purchase Notice, indicating whether the Transferring Investor accepts its Offer and, in the case of acceptance, the principal amount of the Sale Note (including any Excess Sale Note) which that Non-Transferring Investor is obliged to buy under clause 10.2.3 and clause 10.2.4. |
10.2.6 | For the avoidance of doubt, the Transferring Investor shall not be obliged to accept any Offer. |
10.2.7 | Following the Offer Closing Date or, if later, the date the Transferring Investor has sent a notice to the final Non-Transferring Investor required to be notified pursuant to clause 10.2.5, the Transferring Investor shall be free to enter into a binding contract to sell any Sale Note in respect of which it has not received an Offer or (having received an Offer) accepted an Offer to any bona fide third party (the “Third Party”) within 180 days of the Offer Closing Date, provided that: |
(i) | the price paid by the Third Party for each dollar unit of the principal amount of Sale Note is higher than the highest price offered for such dollar unit of the principal amount by any Non-Transferring Investor whose Offer was not accepted, provided that there shall be no minimum price if Offers are not made by any Non-Transferring Investor before the Offer Closing Date in respect of, in aggregate, at least the total principal amount of Sale Note set out in the Transfer Notice; |
15
(ii) | the terms agreed with the Third Party are not more favourable to such Third Party than those offered by any Non-Transferring Investor whose Offer was not accepted; and |
(iii) | the Third Party agrees to execute a Deed of Adherence. |
10.2.8 | If the Transferring Investor wishes to sell any Sale Note in accordance with clause 10.2.7, but any proviso to that clause is not satisfied, the Transferring Investor shall offer the Non-Transferring Investors the opportunity to match the terms agreed with the Third Party. If the Non-Transferring Investors do not make matching offers within thirty (30) days of such offer, the Transferring Investor shall be free to enter into a binding contract to sell the relevant Sale Note to the Third Party, provided that the Third Party agrees to enter into a Deed of Adherence in the form required by this Agreement. |
10.3 | Approval Required for Transfer of Notes |
10.3.1 | Subject to clause 10.4 and except for any Transfer to any Ping An Shareholder, Tun Kung or any of their respective Affiliates: |
(i) | prior to the third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing Date, the Significant C-round Investors; and |
(ii) | at any time, the Investors (other than the Significant C-round Investors), |
in each case shall not be permitted to Transfer any of the Notes they hold without the written consent from the Ping An Shareholders and Tun Kung, for as long as the Ping An Shareholders and Tun Kung collectively hold a majority of the Shares then outstanding. Any reference to the Transfer of Notes in this clause 10.3 shall include any change in the direct or indirect beneficial interest in an Investor and this clause 10.3 shall apply accordingly. An Investor seeking to Transfer Notes pursuant to this clause 10.3.1 shall only be required to disclose information to the Ping An Shareholders and Tun Kung. Without prejudice to any other rights of any Party to this Agreement in respect of a breach of this clause 10.3.1, an Investor which has breached this clause 10.3 shall lose its rights to information under clause 7 of this Agreement and any other rights to financial and operating information of the Company, other than statutory rights.
10.3.2 | Other than Transfers to Affiliates of Tun Kung in accordance with clause 14.5 of the Shareholders Agreement, if Tun Kung (or any of its Affiliates to which it has Transferred any Shares in accordance with clause 14.5 of the Shareholders Agreement) Transfers any Shares, within twenty (20) days after the date of such Transfer, it shall notify each of the Significant C-round Investors of the material details of such Transfer, including the class and number of Shares or other securities subject to such Transfer, the aggregate consideration payable for such Transfer (and the form thereof) and the identity of the purchaser of such Shares. |
10.3.3 | The provisions of clauses 10.2 and 10.3.1 shall not apply to any Investor if any Event of Default under such Investor’s Note has occurred. |
16
10.4 | Transfer to Affiliate |
10.4.1 | Notwithstanding anything in clauses 10.2 and 10.3 to the contrary, the Parties agree that the Investors are permitted to Transfer all or part of their respective Notes to one or multiple Affiliates of such Party (each an “Affiliate-Transferee”), provided that the relevant Investor (the “Affiliate-Transferor”) shall provide sufficient evidence to the Company in respect of the Affiliate relationship between it and its Affiliate-Transferee(s), and shall procure that such Affiliate-Transferee(s) shall accept in writing in accordance with clause 10.1.2 to be bound by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which such Affiliate-Transferor is party, in each case as if it were a party thereto in respect of the rights and obligations of the Affiliate-Transferor (but, for the avoidance of doubt, if the Affiliate-Transferor is the C-round Lead Investor and such Affiliate-Transferor retains any Notes after such Transfer in accordance with this clause 10.4, the rights granted to the relevant Affiliate-Transferor under clause 3 shall only be exercisable by such Affiliate-Transferor and not by any of its respective Affiliate-Transferees). If such Affiliate-Transferee at any time ceases to be an Affiliate of the Affiliate-Transferor, such Affiliate-Transferee shall, prior to ceasing to be an Affiliate of such Affiliate-Transferor, Transfer the Notes held by it back to the Affiliate-Transferor or to another Affiliate of that Affiliate-Transferor, and in the case of a Transfer to another Affiliate, this clause 10.4.1 shall apply to such subsequent Transfer as if it were the original Transfer by the Affiliate-Transferor hereunder. |
10.4.2 | In addition, notwithstanding anything in any Transaction Document to the contrary and subject to clause 15.4, the Parties agree that Tun Kung is permitted to Transfer all or part of its shareholding in the Company to Lanbang, Tongjun and Linzhi to effect the unwinding of the Share Swap provided that Tun Kung shall provide reasonable prior notice to the Company and the Investors. Upon receiving such notice, the Ping An Shareholders and Investors shall enter into a securityholders agreement with Lanbang, Tongjun and Linzhi in substantially the same form as this Agreement. |
10.4.3 | For the purposes of this clause 10.4, any Transfer between the current beneficial owners of the same Investor as at the date of this Agreement shall be treated as a permitted Transfer under this clause 10.4. |
10.5 | “Market Stand off” Agreement |
10.5.1 | Subject to the remainder of this clause 10.5, each of the Investors hereby agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the Company or the underwriter(s) managing any Qualified Listing of the Company’s securities, for a period of: |
10.5.1.1 | six (6) months commencing from the earlier of (x) the date of closing of the Qualified Listing or (y) the date of the underwriting agreement entered into between the Company and the underwriter(s) managing the Qualified Listing (such earlier date, the “Lock-up Commencement Date”) with respect to fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate number of Conversion Shares issued upon conversion of any Automatically Convertible Note held by such Investor; |

17
10.5.1.3 | twelve (12) months commencing from the Lock-up Commencement Date with respect to any Optionally Convertible Note held by such Investor or any Conversion Shares issued upon conversion of such Note, |

10.5.2 | Clause 10.5.1 shall not apply to: |
10.5.2.1 | the transfer of any securities to (a) any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of each such Investor or any of its Affiliates, or (b) any Affiliate of such Investor, provided that the trustee of the trust or such Affiliate, as applicable, agrees to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth herein, and provided further that any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value; or |
10.5.2.2 | pledges of any Note, Conversion Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable (directly or indirectly) for any Note or Conversion Share as collateral in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of a loan agreement and any related pledge and security agreements existing on the date of the applicable underwriting agreement relating to the Qualified Listing, any subsequent foreclosure on such collateral securities pledged pursuant to such existing pledges in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of such loan agreement and any related pledge and security agreements, or any resale by the applicable lender parties of any such collateral securities pledged pursuant to such existing pledges (including Shares actually issued upon the conversion or exchange of such collateral securities in the event of any foreclosure or foreclosure sale) to a third party in a substantially concurrent transaction made pursuant to the provisions of the applicable loan agreement and any related pledge and security agreement. |
10.5.3 | Clause 10.5.1 shall be applicable to each Investor only if and to the extent all officers and directors of the Company are subject to the restrictions set forth in the form of the lock-up letter attached as Schedule 3 to this Agreement, and provided always that, if any of the Ping An Shareholders are subject to any lesser restrictions than those imposed on such Investor under clause 10.5.1, the Investors shall be automatically subject to such lesser restrictions. |
18
10.5.4 | Each of the Investors further agrees to execute such agreements as may be reasonably requested by the underwriters in connection with any such registration that are consistent with this clause 10.5 or that are necessary to give further effect thereto. Any discretionary waiver or termination of the restrictions of any or all of such agreements by the Company or the underwriters shall apply pro rata to all the Shareholders and Investors subject to such agreements, based on the number of shares (including Conversion Shares) subject to such agreements. |
10.5.5 | Clause 10.5.1 shall not apply to any Investor if any Event of Default under such Investor’s Note has occurred or occurs. |
10.5.6 | Each of the Ping An Shareholders, with respect to all of the Shares held by such Shareholder immediately prior to the Qualified Listing, and Tun Kung, with respect to one-third of the Shares held by such Shareholder immediately prior to the Qualified Listing, hereby agrees that the same restrictions shall apply to such Shares as apply to any Investor’s Note or Conversion Shares under clause 10.5.1.3 for so long as any such Investor is subject to such restrictions, subject to the exceptions set forth in clause 10.5.2 and except for any transfers of any Shares by Tun Kung to any equity award grantee under, and pursuant to the terms of, the Company ESOP, the Company Phase II ESOP or the Company PSU Plan. |
10.5.7 | Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the provisions of this clause 10.5 shall not apply to any shares purchased in the Qualified Listing or in the secondary market following the Qualified Listing. |
10.6 | Notwithstanding anything in this clause 10 to the contrary, the restrictions on Transfer set forth in this clause 10 shall not apply to any Transfer of any indirect equity interest in any Investor (i) by any passive limited partner of any investment fund which holds any equity interest in such Investor, provided always that such passive limited partner is not itself an Affiliate or connected person of the adviser, manager or general partner of that investment fund, or (ii) which is conducted on a public securities exchange or market. |
