This Agreement, together with the Merger Agreement, the Interim Investors Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letter and any other agreement or instrument delivered in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the Merger Agreement, contains the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and all contemporaneous or prior agreements or understandings, both written and oral, between or among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

(b) Assignment; Successors. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned or delegated, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise, by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties and the Company, and any such assignment without such prior written consent shall be null and void. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and, in the case of any applicable Rollover Shareholder, his or her estate, heirs, beneficiaries, personal representatives and executors.

(c) Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties of each Rollover Shareholder or of each of Parent or Merger Sub in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of Parent, Merger Sub or any Rollover Shareholder, and the issuance of the Parent Shares.

(d) Amendment; Modification and Waiver. At any time prior to the Expiration Time, this Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented in any manner, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each party hereto, and the Company, and otherwise as expressly set forth herein. No failure or delay of any party in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. Any agreement on the part of a party to any such waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument executed and delivered by such party and the Company.

(e) Interpretation. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”, unless otherwise specified.

(i) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable Law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had never been contained herein.

(j) Remedies; Enforcement.

(i) The parties hereto agree that this Agreement shall be enforceable by all available remedies at Law or in equity.

(ii) Each Rollover Shareholder further acknowledges and agrees that Parent and/or its Affiliate would be irreparably injured by a breach of this Agreement by it and that monetary damages alone would not be an adequate remedy for any actual or threatened breach of this Agreement. Accordingly, Parent and its Affiliate shall be entitled to specific performance or injunctive or other equitable relief (without posting a bond or other security) in any arbitral body or court of competent jurisdiction to enforce or prevent any violations of any provision of this Agreement, in addition to and without limiting all other remedy or right available at law or in equity to such party, including the right to claim money damages for breach of any provision of this Agreement. Each Rollover Shareholder agrees not to oppose the granting of such relief in the event an arbitral body or a court determines that such a breach has occurred, and to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy. All rights, powers, and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at Law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise of any thereof by Parent or its Affiliates shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power or remedy by Parent or its Affiliates. Notwithstanding anything contrary in the foregoing, under no circumstances will Parent be entitled to both the monetary damages under Section 13(j)(i) and specific performance under this Section 13(j)(ii).

(iii) Each of Parent and Xxxxxx Sub further acknowledges and agrees that each Rollover Shareholder would be irreparably injured by a breach of this Agreement by Parent and/or Merger Sub and that monetary damages alone would not be an adequate remedy for any actual or threatened breach of this Agreement. Accordingly, each Rollover Shareholder shall be entitled to specific performance or injunctive or other equitable relief (without posting a bond or other security) in any arbitral body or court of competent jurisdiction to enforce or prevent any violations of any provision of this Agreement by Parent, Merger Sub and/or their respective Affiliates, in addition to and without limiting all other remedy or right available at law or in equity to such party, including the right to claim money damages for breach of any provision of this Agreement. Each of Parent, Xxxxxx Sub and/or their respective Affiliates agrees not to oppose the granting of such relief in the event an arbitral body or a court determines that such a breach has occurred, and to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy. All rights, powers, and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at Law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise of any thereof by a Rollover Shareholder or his/her/its Affiliates shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power or remedy by such Rollover Shareholder or his/her/its Affiliates. Notwithstanding anything contrary in the foregoing, under no circumstances will a Rollover Shareholder be entitled to both the monetary damages under Section 13(j)(i) and specific performance under this Section 13(j)(iii).

(k) No Third Party Beneficiaries. There are no third party beneficiaries of this Agreement and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer on any person other than the parties hereto (and their respective successors, heirs and permitted assigns), any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities, except as specifically set forth in this Agreement; provided, that the Company is an express third-party beneficiary of Sections 1, 3, 4, 6 and 7 of this Agreement and shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms thereof, including an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement by the parties hereto, in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity.

(l) Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Dispute Resolution.

(i) This Agreement and all disputes or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be interpreted, construed and governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York, except that matters arising out of or relating to the conversion, exchange or cancellation (as applicable) of the Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs) contemplated by this Agreement shall be interpreted, construed and governed by and in accordance with the Laws of the Cayman Islands in respect of which the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Cayman Islands.

(ii) Subject to the exception for jurisdiction the courts of the Cayman Islands in Section 13(l)(i), any disputes, actions and proceedings against any party hereto or arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement shall be submitted to the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (“HKIAC”) and resolved in accordance with the Arbitration Rules of HKIAC in force at the relevant time (the “HKIAC Rules”) and as may be amended by this Section 13(l)(ii). The place of arbitration shall be Hong Kong. The official language of the arbitration shall be English and the arbitration tribunal shall consist of three arbitrators (each, an “Arbitrator”). The claimant(s), irrespective of number, shall nominate jointly one Arbitrator; the respondent(s), irrespective of number, shall nominate jointly one Arbitrator; and a third Arbitrator will be nominated jointly by the first two Arbitrators and shall serve as chairman of the arbitration tribunal. In the event the claimant(s) or respondent(s) or the first two Arbitrators shall fail to nominate or agree on the joint nomination of an Arbitrator or the third Arbitrator within the time limits specified by the HKIAC Rules, such Arbitrator shall be appointed promptly by the HKIAC. The arbitration tribunal shall have no authority to award punitive or other punitive-type damages. The award of the arbitration tribunal shall be final and binding upon the disputing parties. Any party to an award may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for enforcement of such award and, for purposes of the enforcement of such award, the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the jurisdiction of any court of competent jurisdiction and waive any defenses to such enforcement based on lack of personal jurisdiction or inconvenient forum.

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto hereby consent to and agree that in addition to any recourse to arbitration as set out in this Section 13(l), any party hereto may, to the extent permitted under the rules and procedures of the HKIAC, seek an interim injunction or other form of relief from the HKIAC as provided for in its HKIAC Rules. Such application shall also be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of New York.

(iv) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.2 of the Merger Agreement and in the case of each party hereto at the address set forth in Section 13(h). Nothing in this Agreement shall affect the right of any party to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law.

(v) Subject to the rights and remedies of the parties otherwise provided herein in the case of a breach by the other party, each party hereto agrees that the prevailing party shall be entitled to reimbursement of all reasonable and documented costs and expenses, including all reasonable and documented attorney’s fees, in connection with any proceeding arising out of or relating to a willful breach of this Agreement on the part of the other party.

(m) Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it, he or she may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of or relating to this Agreement and any of the documents delivered in connection herewith. Each party hereto certifies and acknowledges that (a) no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce either of such waivers; (b) it understands and has considered the implications of such waivers; (c) it makes such waivers voluntarily; and (d) it has been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 13(m).

(n) Expenses. Other than otherwise provided for in this Agreement, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such expenses.

(o) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts as if the signatures to each counterpart were upon a single instrument, and all such counterparts together shall be deemed an original of this Agreement. The parties irrevocably and unreservedly agree that the document(s) in question may be executed by way of electronic signatures and the parties agree that such document(s), or any part thereof, shall not be challenged or denied any legal effect, validity and/or enforceability solely on the ground that it is in the form of an electronic record; provided, however, that if any of the Rollover Shareholders fails for any reason to execute, or perform their obligations under, this Agreement, this Agreement shall remain effective as to all parties executing this Agreement. The delivery by facsimile or by electronic delivery in PDF format of this Agreement with all executed signature pages (in counterparts or otherwise) shall be sufficient to bind the parties hereto to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

(p) No Presumption against Drafting Party. Each of the parties to this Agreement acknowledges that he/she/it has been represented by independent counsel in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Accordingly, any rule of Law or any legal decision that would require interpretation of any claimed ambiguities in this Agreement against the drafting party has no application and is expressly waived.

(q) Independent Nature of Rollover Shareholders’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Rollover Shareholder under this Agreement are several and not joint, and no Rollover Shareholder is responsible in any way for the performance or conduct of any other Rollover Shareholder in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. Except as expressly required by the Exchange Act, nothing contained herein and no action taken by any Rollover Shareholder pursuant hereto, shall be or shall be deemed to constitute a partnership, association, joint venture, or joint group with respect to the Rollover Shareholders.
