请参见甲方、前股东和现股东于2011年9月2日签署的股权质押协议和其修正案（“协议”），依该协议，持有乙方总计100%发行或已发行股权（“股权”）的前股东和现股东将股权质押给甲方，以保证履行2011年9月2日由甲方、乙方、前股东和现股东签署的排他咨询服务和运营协议和其修正案（“排他协议”）项下义务；

title and interest in the 31.6667% of the Equity Interests held by him to the
New Shareholder (the “Transfer”), which Transfer was registered with

转让生效，则原代乙方管理层朱玉龙持有股权的前股东现由代朱玉龙持有股权的新股东替代，并且该股东现持有31.6667%股权 ；以及

 

(4)In connection with the Transfer, the Parties amended the Exclusive Agreement
to, among other things, replace the Prior Shareholder with the New Shareholder
as a Party to such agreement, and the Parties desire to do the same with the
Agreement so that the pledge of the Equity Interests to Party A may continue in
full force during the term of the amended Exclusive Agreement, subject to the
terms and conditions contained in this Amendment;

 

鉴于上述转让，各方已修改了排他协议，以新股东替代前股东作为协议一方，各方有意进行相同的安排以致于对甲方的股权质押在排他协议修正案期间基于本协议条款和条件继续生效；

 

NOW THEREFORE, the Parties agree as follows:

connection therewith, the Parties hereby agree that this Amendment shall be
deemed an assignment by the Prior Shareholder of all of his rights, interests
and obligations under the Agreement to the New Shareholder, and the consent by
Party A of such assignment and the Transfer, and that by virtue of such
assignment, the Prior Shareholder shall be released from his obligations under
the Agreement.
