9.                                      MISCELLANEOUS.

 

9.1                               Indemnity.

 

(a)                                 Subject to Section 9.1(d) below, each Seller Party shall, jointly and severally, indemnify each Investor, and its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents and assigns (each, an “Indemnitee”) against any losses, liabilities, damages, liens, penalties, diminution in value, costs and expenses, including reasonable advisor’s fees and other reasonable expenses of investigation and defense of any of the foregoing, incurred by such Investor (the “Indemnifiable Loss”) as a result of (i) any breach or violation of any representation or warranty made by any Seller Party including without limitation the Financial Statements; and (ii) any breach by any Seller Party of any covenant or agreement contained herein, including without limitation claims by tax authorities against any Group Company.

 

(b)                                 If any Investor believes that it has a claim that may give rise to an indemnity obligation hereunder, it shall promptly notify the Seller Party stating specifically the basis on which such claim is being made, the material facts related thereto, and (if ascertainable or quantifiable) the amount of the claim asserted.  For purposes hereof, notice delivered to the Founder at the Company’s address pursuant to Section 9.8 shall constitute effective notice to all Seller Parties.  In the event of a third party claim against an Indemnitee for which such Indemnitee seeks indemnification from the Seller Parties, no settlement shall be deemed conclusive with respect whether there was an Indemnifiable Loss or the amount of such Indemnifiable Loss unless such settlement is consented to by the Seller Parties.  Any dispute related to this Section 9.1(b) shall be resolved pursuant to Section 9.18 hereof.

 

(c)                                  (i) none of the Seller Parties shall have any liability under this Agreement until the aggregate amount of Indemnifiable Loss incurred by an Indemnitee exceeds an amount equal to US$1,000,000, in which case such Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification of the entire amount of the Indemnifiable Loss; and (ii) the amount of Indemnifiable Loss (other than Indemnifiable Loss relating to breaches of Fundamental Warranties) for which the Investors may be indemnified by the Seller Parties under this Agreement shall be limited to the Purchase Price actually paid by the Investors, which shall be allocated in accordance with the pro rata portion of each Investor’s payment for the Purchased Shares.

 

(d)                                 Subject to the foregoing, (x) the Founder’s indemnity obligations that are determined to arise under this Agreement shall be satisfied solely with, and recourse will be limited solely to, the Ordinary Shares and any other securities of the Company held directly or indirectly, currently or in the future by the Founder and his Associates, and no other assets of the Founder shall in any respect be used to satisfy any of the Founder’s indemnity obligations under this Agreement, and each Investor hereby agrees to waive any right or claim against the Founder or his assets except pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions under this Agreement; (y) all claims asserted under this Agreement against the Seller Parties shall be settled by the Seller Parties in accordance with the following contribution procedure: first, the Group Companies shall satisfy all claims to the extent possible; second, to the extent that such claims are not fully satisfied (such unsatisfied amounts, the “Remaining Losses”), such Remaining Losses shall be settled by the gratis transfer to the related Indemnitee of such number of Ordinary Shares or other securities of 

 

31











 

the Company then held by the Founder and/or his Associates calculated by dividing the Remaining Losses by the fair market value of such Ordinary Share (determined pursuant to Section 9.18 if the related parties cannot agree to the fair market value of such Ordinary Shares); and (z) notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, any claims against the Founder and any of the Founder’s indemnity and guarantee obligations under this Agreement shall terminate, and be wholly barred and unenforceable, upon the consummation of a Qualified IPO (as defined in the Restated Shareholders Agreement).

 

(e)                                  Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, this Section 9.1 shall be the sole and exclusive monetary remedy of each Investor for any claim against the Seller Parties arising out of or resulting from this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, except that no limitation or exceptions with respect to the obligations or liabilities on any Seller Party provided in the foregoing sub-sections under this Section 9.1 shall apply to an Indemnifiable Loss arising due to the fraud or willful misconduct of any Seller Party.

 

9.2                               [Reserved].

 

9.3                               Founder’s Guarantee.  Subject to Section 9.1, in consideration of each Investor entering into this Agreement, the Founder hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely a surety, to such Investor that so long as the Founder has management control over the Group Companies, whether directly or indirectly, the due and punctual performance and observance will be conducted by each of Max Smart, the Company, the PRC Subsidiaries and the PRC Affiliates, in each case, of all its respective obligations, commitments, undertakings, warranties, indemnities and covenants under or pursuant to this Agreement and agrees to fully and unconditionally indemnify the Indemnitees against all losses, damages, costs and expenses (including legal costs and expenses) which the Indemnitees may suffer through or arising from any breach by any of the Company, Max Smart, the PRC Subsidiaries and the PRC Affiliates.  The liability of the Company, Max Smart, the PRC Subsidiaries and the PRC Affiliates (as the case may be) as aforesaid shall not be released or diminished by any arrangements or alterations of terms (whether of this Agreement, or otherwise) or any forbearance, neglect or delay in seeking performance of the obligations hereby imposed or any granting of time for such performance.

 

9.4                               Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of Hong Kong as to matters within the scope thereof, without regard to its principles of conflicts of laws.

The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made herein shall survive for two (2) years after the Closing, provided that the representations and warranties of Seller Parties (i) under Sections 3.17 and 3.21 shall survive until the expiration of applicable statute of limitation and (ii) under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.5 and 3.14 (collectively, the “Fundamental Warranties”) shall survive perpetually. Such representations and warranties of the Seller Parties shall in no way be affected by any investigation of the subject matter thereof made by or on behalf of the Investors.

 

32











 

9.6                               Successors and Assigns.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators of the parties hereto.  This Agreement and the rights and obligations therein may not be assigned by the Founder, Max Smart or any Group Companies without the written consent of the Investors.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Investor may assign its rights hereunder, including without limitation the right to acquire Purchased Shares together with the related obligations of such Investor hereunder, to an Affiliate, provided that such Affiliate shall join the Restated Shareholders Agreement as a “Classroom Party” or a “Tiger Party”, as applicable, and an “Investor”, by executing a deed of adherence or other necessary document in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Founder and Max Smart.

 

9.7                               Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, the Restated Shareholders Agreement, any Ancillary Agreements, and the schedules and exhibits hereto and thereto, which are hereby expressly incorporated herein by this reference constitute the entire understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to the subjects hereof and thereof; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement or related agreements shall be deemed to terminate or supersede the provisions of any confidentiality and nondisclosure agreements executed by the parties hereto prior to the date hereof, which agreements shall continue in full force and effect until terminated in accordance with their respective terms.

 

9.8                               Notices.  Except as may be otherwise provided herein, all notices, requests, waivers and other communications made pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be conclusively deemed to have been duly given (a) when hand delivered to the other party, upon delivery; (b) when sent by facsimile at the number set forth in Exhibit F hereto, upon receipt of confirmation of error-free transmission; (c) seven (7) Business Days after deposit in the mail as air mail or certified mail, receipt requested, postage prepaid and addressed to the relevant party or parties as set forth in Exhibit F; or (d) three (3) Business Days after deposit with an overnight delivery service, postage prepaid, addressed to the relevant parties as set forth in Exhibit F with next business day delivery guaranteed, provided that the sending party receives a confirmation of delivery from the delivery service provider.

 

Each person making a communication hereunder by facsimile shall promptly confirm by telephone to the person to whom such communication was addressed each communication made by it by facsimile pursuant hereto, but the absence of such confirmation shall not affect the validity of any such communication.  A party may change or supplement the addresses given above, or designate additional addresses, for purposes of this Section 9.8, by giving the other parties written notice of the new address in the manner set forth above.

 

9.9                               Amendments.  Any term of this Agreement may be amended only with the written consent of the Company, the Founder and the Investors.

 

9.10                        Waivers.  Each of the Seller Parties, by executing this Agreement, hereby waives any anti-dilution rights, rights of first refusal, preemptive rights and all similar rights in connection with the issuance of the Purchased Shares.

 

33











 

9.11                        Delays or Omissions.  No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any Seller Party or Investor, upon any breach or default of any party hereto under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such Seller Party or Investor, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of any similar breach of default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring.  Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any Seller Party or Investor of any breach of default under this Agreement or any waiver on the part of any Seller Party or Investor of any provisions or conditions of this Agreement, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.  All remedies, either under this Agreement, or by law or otherwise afforded to the Seller Parties and the Investors shall be cumulative and not alternative.

 

9.12                        Finder’s Fees.  Subject to Section 3.14 and the Company’s indemnification obligation relating thereto under Section 9.1 thereunder, each party represents and warrants to the other parties hereto that it has retained no finder or broker in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and hereby agrees to indemnify and to hold harmless the other party hereto from and against any liability for any commission or compensation in the nature of a finder’s fee of any broker or other person or firm (and the costs and expenses of defending against such liability or asserted liability) for which the indemnifying party or any of its employees or representatives are responsible.

 

9.13                        Interpretation; Titles and Subtitles.  This Agreement shall be construed according to its fair language.  The rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in interpreting this Agreement. The titles of the sections and subsections of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in construing this Agreement.  Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all references to Sections and Exhibits herein are to Sections and Exhibits of this Agreement.  As used in this Agreement, the words “include” and “including”, and variations thereof, shall not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”.

 

9.14                        Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed (including facsimile signature) in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument.

 

9.15                        Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable, then such provision shall be construed, to the extent feasible, so as to render the provision enforceable and to provide for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby on substantially the same terms as originally set forth herein, and if no feasible interpretation would save such provision, it shall be severed from the remainder of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect unless the severed provision is essential to the rights or benefits intended by the parties. In such event, the parties shall use best efforts to negotiate, in good faith, a substitute, valid and enforceable provision or agreement which most nearly effects the parties’ intent in entering into this Agreement.

 

34











 

9.16                        Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure.  The parties hereto agree to be bound by the confidentiality and non-disclosure provisions of Section 9 of the Restated Shareholders Agreement, which shall mutatis mutandis apply.

Each party shall from time to time and at all times hereafter make, do, execute, or cause or procure to be made, done and executed such further acts, deeds, conveyances, consents and assurances without further consideration, which may reasonably be required to effect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

9.18                        Dispute Resolution.

(b)                                 Arbitration.

The arbitration shall be conducted in Hong Kong and shall be administered by the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (“HKIAC”) in accordance with the HKIAC Administered Arbitration Rules in force at the time of the commencement of the arbitration.  The arbitration tribunal shall consist of three arbitrators. The language of the arbitration shall be English.  The decision of the arbitrators (by rule of majority) shall be final and binding on the parties (including any decision on their fees) and their fees shall be borne and paid by the parties in such proportions as the arbitrators shall determine.

 

9.19                        Expenses.  The Investors and the Seller Parties shall bear their own cost and expense for consummation of the transaction contemplated hereunder.

Such termination under this Section 9.20 shall be without prejudice to any claims for damages or other remedies that the parties may have under this Agreement or applicable law.

 

9.21                        Disclosure Schedule.  The parties hereto agree that any reference in a particular Section of the Disclosure Schedule to this Agreement shall only be deemed to be an exception to (or, as applicable, a disclosure for purposes of) the representations and warranties of the relevant party that are contained in the corresponding Section of this Agreement only if the relevance of that reference as an exception to (or a disclosure for purposes of) such representations and
