The Purchaser is duly qualified, licensed or admitted to conduct business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation or other entity in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned or leased by it makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, as the case may be, would not, individually or in the aggregate, have, or reasonably be expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect in respect of the Purchaser, and no Proceeding has been instituted in any such jurisdiction revoking, limiting or curtailing or seeking to revoke, limit or curtail such power and authority or qualification.

(b) Authorization; Enforcement. The Purchaser has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by each of the Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder.

Each Transaction Document has been (or upon delivery will have been) duly authorized and executed by the Purchaser and is, or when delivered in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, will constitute, subject to the satisfaction of and obtaining the Purchaser Required Approvals, the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except: (i) as limited by general equitable principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies, and (iii) insofar as indemnification and contribution provisions may be limited by applicable law.

(c) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by the Purchaser of the Transaction Documents, the receipt of the Shares and the consummation by the Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby do not and will not: (i) conflict with or violate any provision of the Purchaser’s Organizational Documents, or (ii) subject to the satisfaction and obtaining the Purchaser Required Approvals, conflict with or result in a violation of any Law, injunction or other restriction of any Governmental or Regulatory Authority to which the Purchaser is subject or by which any property or asset of the Company or any Subsidiary is bound or affected (including federal, state and foreign securities laws and regulations).

(d) Filings, Consents and Approvals. The Purchaser is not required to obtain any Consent, give any notice to or make any filing or registration with any Governmental or Regulatory Authority or other Person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Purchaser of the Transaction Documents, other than the Purchaser Required Approvals.

(e) Brokers. No broker, finder, financial adviser, intermediary or investment banker is entitled to any brokerage, finder’s or other fee or commission in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of the Purchaser.

(f) Investment Intent. The Purchaser understands that the Shares are “restricted securities” and have not been registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law and is acquiring the Shares as principal for its own account and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law, has no present intention of distributing any of such Shares in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law and has no direct or indirect arrangement or understandings with any other Persons regarding the distribution or resale of such Shares (this representation and warranty not limiting the Purchaser’s right to sell the Shares pursuant to a Registration Statement or otherwise in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws) in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law. The Purchaser does not presently have any agreement, plan or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any Person to distribute or effect any distribution of any of the Shares (or any securities which are derivatives thereof) to or through any person or entity.

(g) Regulation S.

(i) The Purchaser is not organized under the laws of the United States and is not a “U.S. Person” as that term is defined in Rule 902(k) of Regulation S.

(ii) The Purchaser was not formed for the purpose of investing in Regulation S securities or for the purpose of investing in the Shares sold under this Agreement. The Purchaser is not registered as an issuer under the Securities Act and is not required to be registered with the Commission under the Investment Company Act.

(iii) The Company has not made an offer to enter into this Agreement to Purchaser in the United States other than as permitted in the case of an account managed by a professional fiduciary resident in the United States within the meaning of Section 902(k)(2) of Regulation S. At the times of the offer and execution of this Agreement and, to the knowledge of the Purchaser, at the time the offering originated, the Purchaser was located and resident outside the United States, other than as permitted in the case of an account managed by a professional fiduciary resident in the United States within the meaning of Section 902(k)(2) of Regulation S.

(iv) To the knowledge of the Purchaser, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by it are not part of a plan or scheme to evade the registration provisions of the Securities Act.

(v) The Purchaser acknowledges that the Shares may be resold within the jurisdiction of the United States or to U.S. persons as defined in Rule 902(k) of Regulation S by or for the account of any other parties only (i) pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act, or (ii) if applicable, pursuant to an exemption from registration for sales by a person other than an issuer, underwriter, or dealer as those terms are used in Section 4(1) and related provisions of the Securities Act and regulations or pursuant to another exemption from registration. The Purchaser acknowledges that this Agreement and the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act or qualified under state securities laws of the United States and that their transferability within the jurisdiction of the United States is restricted by the Securities Act as well as state laws.

(h) General Solicitation.

(d) either Party by written notice to the other Party, if the Closing has not been consummated on or before 5:00 p.m. (Beijing time) on August 30, 2013.

In the event of termination of this Agreement as provided herein, (i) this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there shall be no liability under this Agreement on the part of either Party except that nothing herein shall relieve either Party from liability for any breach of this Agreement that occurred before such termination and the terms of this Section 6.1 shall survive any such termination and (ii) any amounts paid by the Purchaser to the Company pursuant to Article II of this Agreement shall be returned by the Company to the Purchaser via wire transfer of immediately available funds, plus penalty interest at applicable LIBOR, accruing from the applicable payment date; provided that the obligation of the Company to return such amounts to the Purchaser shall be pari passu with the most senior obligations of the Company outstanding at such time.
