(b) Right of First Refusal. In addition to the foregoing, in the event of a Company Bankruptcy Event, Licensor shall, to the extent allowed by Law, have a right of first refusal to purchase all of Company’s interest in the Product and the Company Technology in the Territory (the “Right of First Refusal”).  The Right of First Refusal shall operate as follows:

ARTICLE 12 DISPUTE RESOLUTION

12.1 Disputes. The Parties recognize that disputes as to certain matters may from time to time arise during the Term which relate to either Party’s rights and/or obligations hereunder. It is the objective of the Parties to establish under this Article 12 procedures to facilitate the resolution of disputes arising under this Agreement (other than any disputes relating to matters for which under this Agreement Company or Licensor has sole decision-making authority and/or discretion (each, a “Non-Escalable Dispute”), in which case, such matter shall be determined by Company or Licensor, as the case may be, and shall not be part of the dispute resolution procedure set forth in this Article 12) in an expedient manner by mutual cooperation and without resort to litigation. In the event that the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute through diligent review and deliberation by the Senior Executives within thirty (30) days from the day that a Party had designated the issue as a dispute in written notice to the other Party, then either Party shall have the right to escalate such matter to the Executive Officers as set forth in Section 12.2.

12.2 Escalation to Executive Officers. Either Party may, by written notice to the other Party, request that a dispute (other than a Non-Escalable Dispute) that remains unresolved by the Senior Executives for a period of thirty (30) days as set forth in Section 12.1 arising between the Parties in connection with this Agreement, or a dispute relating to material breach, be resolved by the Executive Officers, within fifteen (15) days after referral of such dispute to them. If the Executive Officers cannot resolve such dispute within fifteen (15) days after referral of such dispute to them, then, at any time after such fifteen (15) day period, either Party may proceed to enforce any and all of its rights with respect to such dispute.

12.3 Full Arbitration. If the Parties are unable to resolve the dispute following the procedure set forth in Section 12.2, then the dispute for arbitration shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration in the following manner:

(a) dispute shall be settled by arbitration in Hong Kong by the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (the “HKIAC”) in accordance with the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre Administered Arbitration Rules (the “HKIAC Rules”) in force when the Arbitration Notice is submitted.  There shall be three (3) arbitrators.

(b) Each Party shall select one person to act as arbitrator and the two Party-selected arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator within ten (10) days of their appointment. If the arbitrators selected by the Parties are unable or fail to agree upon the third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the HKIAC.

(c) No arbitrator shall have any past or present family, business or other relationship with the Parties or any Affiliate, director or officer thereof, unless following full disclosure of all such relationships, the Parties agree in writing to waive such requirement with respect to an individual in connection with any dispute.

(d) No discovery other than an exchange of relevant documents may occur in any arbitration commenced under the provisions of this Article 12. The Parties agree to act in good faith to promptly exchange relevant documents.

(e) The arbitral proceedings shall be conducted in Chinese. A Party may request English translation and each Party bears half of cost.

(f) To the extent that the HKIAC Rules are in conflict with the provisions of this Section 12.3, including the provisions concerning the appointment of the arbitrator, the provisions of this Section 12.3 shall prevail.

27

(g) The award of the arbitral tribunal shall be final and binding upon the Parties a party thereto, and the prevailing Party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for enforcement of such award.

(h) Any Party that is a party to the dispute shall be entitled to seek preliminary injunctive relief, if possible, from any court of competent jurisdiction pending the constitution of the arbitral tribunal.

(i) The Parties will each pay fifty percent (50%) of the initial compensation to be paid to the arbitrator in any such arbitration and fifty percent (50%) of the costs of transcripts and other normal and regular expenses of the arbitration proceedings; provided, however, that:

(i) the prevailing Party in any arbitration will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and costs; and (ii) all costs of arbitration, other than those provided for above, will be paid by the losing Party, and the arbitrator will be authorized to determine the identity of the prevailing Party and the losing Party.

(j) The panel of the arbitrators chosen in accordance with these provisions will not have the power to alter, amend or otherwise affect the terms of these arbitration provisions or any other provisions contained in this Agreement.
