The purchase price of the purchased price of the Optioned Interests (the “Base Price”) shall be RMB[•].  If PRC law requires a minimum price higher than the Base Price when Party A exercises Equity Interest Purchase Option, the minimum price regulated by PRC law shall be the purchase price (collectively, the “Equity Interest Purchase Price”).

 

1.4                               Transfer of Optioned Interests
