In such event, the right of any Holder to include its Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting (unless otherwise mutually agreed by a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders and such Holder) to the extent provided herein.

All Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement but subject to Section 2.12, if the managing underwriter(s) determine(s) in good faith that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the managing underwriter(s) may exclude Registrable Securities requested to be registered from the registration and the underwriting, and the number of Registrable Securities that may be included in the registration and the underwriting shall be allocated, first, to the Company, second, to the holders of the Series E Shares, Series D Shares, Series C Shares, Series B Shares and Series A-1 Shares holding the Registrable Securities on a pro rata basis, third, to each of the remaining Holders requesting inclusion of their Registrable Securities in such registration statement on a pro rata basis, in each case based on the total number of shares of Registrable Securities then held by each such Holder , and fourth to holders of other securities of the Company; provided, however, that the right of the underwriter(s) to exclude shares (including Registrable Securities) from the registration and underwriting as described above shall be restricted so that (i) the number of Registrable Securities held by holder(s) of the Series E Shares, Series D Shares, Series C Shares, Series B Shares and Series A-1 Shares included in any such registration is not reduced below twenty-five percent (25%) of the aggregate number of shares of Registrable Securities for which inclusion has been requested; and (ii) all shares of Registrable Securities held by holder(s) of the Series A Shares or all other shares that are not Registrable Securities and are held by any other person, including, without limitation, any person who is an employee, consultant, officer or director of the Company (or any subsidiary of the Company) shall first be excluded from such registration and underwriting before any Registrable Securities held by holder(s) of the Series E Shares, Series D Shares, Series C Shares and Series B Shares are so excluded. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriter(s), delivered at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the effective date of the registration statement. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be excluded and withdrawn from the registration.

 

(c)           Not Demand Registration. Registration pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall not be deemed to be a demand registration as described in Section 2.3 above. There shall be no limit on the number of times the Holders may request registration of Registrable Securities under this Section 2.4.

 

2.5          Form F-3 Registration. In case the Company shall receive from any Holder or Holders of at least thirty percent (30%) of the Registrable Securities then outstanding a written request or requests that the Company effects a registration on Form F-3 (or an equivalent registration in a jurisdiction outside of the United States) and any related qualification or 

 

17

(i)             if Form F-3 is not available for such offering by the Holders;

 

(ii)            if the Holders, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate price to the public of less than US$1,000,000;

 

(iii)           if the Company shall furnish to the Holders a certificate signed by the President or Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board, it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its shareholders for such Form F-3 registration to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Form F-3 registration statement no more than once during any twelve (12) month period for a period of not more than ninety (90) days after receipt of the request of the Holder or Holders under Section 2.5(a); provided that the Company shall not register any of its other shares during such ninety (90) day period;

(v)           in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to do business or to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance, unless the Company is already subject to service of process in such jurisdiction; or

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 2.3 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be registered, unless the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding agree that such registration constitutes the use by the Holders of one (1) demand registration pursuant to Section 2.3 (in which case such registration shall also constitute the use by all Holders of one (1) such demand registration); provided further, however, that if at the time of such withdrawal, the Holders have learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business, or prospects of the Company not known to the Holders at the time of their request for such registration and have withdrawn their request for registration with reasonable promptness after learning of such material adverse change, then the Holders shall not be required to pay any of such expenses and such registration shall not constitute the use of a demand registration pursuant to Section 2.3.

2.8          Furnish Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to Section 2.3, 2.4 or 2.5 that the selling Holders shall furnish to the Company such information regarding themselves, the Registrable Securities held by them and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be required to timely effect the registration of their Registrable Securities.

 

2.9          Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a registration statement under Section 2.3, 2.4 or 2.5:

 

(a)           By the Company. To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, its partners, officers, directors, legal counsel, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or other United States federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a “Violation”):

 

(i)             any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or free-writing prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto;

 

(ii)            any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; or

 

(iii)           any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any United States federal or state securities law, or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any United States federal or state securities law in connection with the offering covered by such registration statement;

 

the Company will reimburse each such Holder, its partner, officer, director, legal counsel, underwriter or controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them, as incurred, in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection (a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the written consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by such Holder, partner, officer, director, legal counsel, underwriter or controlling person of such Holder.

 

21











 

(b)           By Selling Holders. To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder are included in the securities as to which such registration qualifications or compliance is being effected, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed the registration statement, its legal counsel, each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, any underwriter and any other Holder selling securities under such registration statement or any of such other Holder’s partners, directors, officers, legal counsel or any person who controls such Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which the Company or any such director, officer, legal counsel, controlling person, underwriter or other such Holder, partner, director, officer, legal counsel or controlling person of such other Holder may become subject under the Securities Act,  the Exchange Act or other United States federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such Holder will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director, officer, legal counsel, controlling person, underwriter or other Holder, partner, officer, director, legal counsel or controlling person of such other Holder in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.9(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the written consent of such Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided, further, that in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 2.9(b) exceed the net proceeds actually received by such Holder in the registered offering out of which the applicable Violation arises.

 

(c)           Notice. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 2.9 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 2.9, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflict of interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall relieve such indemnifying party of liability to the indemnified party under this Section 2.9 to the extent the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced as a result thereof, but the omission to so deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 2.9.

 

(d)           Contribution. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either (i) any indemnified party makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 2.9 but it is judicially determined (by the entry

 

22











 

of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that this Section 2.9 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of any indemnified party in circumstances for which indemnification is provided under this Section 2.9; then, and in each such case, the indemnified party and the indemnifying party will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and the indemnified party, on the other hand, in connection with the Violation that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities so that a Holder at such fault (together with its related persons) is responsible for the portion represented by the percentage that the public offering price of its  Registrable Securities offered by and sold under the registration statement bears to the public offering price of all securities offered by and sold under such registration statement, and the Company and other selling Holders at such fault are responsible for the remaining portion. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by a court of law by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided, however, that, in any such case: (A) no Holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the net proceeds to such Holder from the sale of all such Registrable Securities offered and sold by such Holder pursuant to such registration statement; and (B) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

(e)           Survival; Consents to Judgments and Settlements. The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 2.9 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement, regardless of the expiration of any statutes of limitation or extensions of such statutes. No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

 

2.10        Termination of the Company’s Obligations. The Company’s obligations under Sections 2.3, 2.4 and 2.5 with respect to any Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by a Holder in a registration pursuant to Section 2.3, 2.4 or 2.5 shall terminate on the fifth (5th) anniversary of an initial public offering, or, if, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, all such Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by a Holder (and any Affiliate of the Holder with whom such Holder must aggregate its sales under Rule 144) may then be sold without restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act.

 

2.11        No Registration Rights to Third Parties. Without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the Series A-1 Shares then outstanding, the holders of a majority of Series B Shares then outstanding, the holders of a majority of the Series C Shares then

 

23











 

outstanding, the holders of a majority of the Series D Shares then outstanding, and the holders of  at least 75% of the Series E Shares then outstanding, in each case voting together as a separate class, the Company covenants and agrees that it shall not grant, or cause or permit to be created, for the benefit of any person or entity any registration rights of any kind (whether similar to the demand, “piggyback” or Form F-3 registration rights described in this Section 2, or otherwise) relating to any securities of the Company.

 

2.12        Market Stand-Off.  Each holder of the Common Shares and each Holder agree that, so long as it holds any voting securities of the Company, upon request by the Company or the underwriters managing the initial public offering of the Company’s securities, it will not sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any securities of the Company (other than those permitted  to be included in the registration and other transfers to Affiliates permitted by law or to other Affiliates who agree to be similarly bound) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for a period of time specified by the representative of the underwriters not to exceed one hundred and eighty (180) days from the effective date of the registration statement covering such initial public offering or the pricing date of such offering as may be requested by the underwriters (whichever is later). The foregoing provision of this Section 2.12 shall only apply to the Company’s initial public offering and shall not apply to the sale of any securities of the Company to an underwriter pursuant to any underwriting agreement, and shall only be applicable to the Holders if all officers, directors and holders of one percent (1%) or more of the Company’s outstanding share capital on a fully-diluted basis enter into similar agreements with same terms and conditions as described in this Section 2.12, and if the Company or any underwriter releases, at any time during the market stand-off time period, any officer, director or holder of one percent (1%) or more of the Company’s outstanding share capital on a fully-diluted basis from his, her or its sale restrictions so undertaken, then each Holder shall be notified prior to such release and shall itself be simultaneously released to the same proportional extent of such Holder’s Shares originally subject to the market-standoff restrictions. The Company shall require all future acquirers of the Company’s securities holding at least one percent (1%) of the then outstanding share capital of the Company on a fully-diluted basis to execute, prior to any public offering of the Company’s securities, a market stand-off agreement containing substantially similar provisions as those contained in this Section 2.12.

 

2.13        Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may at any time permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration or pursuant to a registration on Form F-3, after such time as a public market exists for the Common Shares, the Company agrees to:

 

(a)           Make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at all times after the effective date of the first registration under the Securities Act filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to the general public;

 

24











 

(b)           File with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); and

 

(c)           So long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to such Holder forthwith upon request (i) a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 (at any time after ninety (90) days after the effective date of the Company’s initial public offering), the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements), or its qualification as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form F-3 (at any time after it so qualifies), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and (iii) such other reports and documents of the Company as a Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of  the SEC that permits the selling of any such securities without registration or pursuant to Form F-3.

 

3.                                      RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER.

 

3.1          General. Each Investor and its permitted assignees to whom such Investor’s rights under this Section 3 have been duly assigned in accordance with Section 6.1 (such Investor, and each such assignee hereinafter each referred to as a “Participation Rights Holder”) shall have the right of first offer, but not an obligation, to purchase such Participation Rights Holder’s Pro Rata Share (as defined below) of all (or any part) of any New Securities (as defined in Section 3.3) that the Company may from time to time issue after the date of this Agreement (the “Right of Participation”).

 

3.2          Pro Rata Share. A Participation Rights Holder’s “Pro Rata Share” for purposes of the Right of Participation is the ratio of (a) the number of Common Shares (calculated on a fully-diluted and as-converted basis) then held by such Participation Rights Holder to (b) the total number of Common Shares (calculated on a fully-diluted and as-converted basis) then held by all Participation Rights Holders immediately prior to the issuance of New Securities giving rise to the Right of Participation.

 

3.3          New Securities. “New Securities” shall mean any class of shares or securities of the Company, including but not limited to the Preferred Shares, Common Shares or other shares of the Company, whether now authorized or not, and rights, options or warrants to purchase such Preferred Shares, Common Shares and securities of any type whatsoever that are, or may become, convertible or exchangeable into the Preferred Shares, Common Shares or other shares, without regard to the differences in voting rights; provided, however, that the term “New Securities” shall not include (the issuances pursuant to the subsections below collectively referred to as the “Permitted Issuances”):

 

(i)             any of the Common Shares, options or warrants issued to employees, officers, directors, contractors, advisors or consultants of the Company for up to 26,822,828 Common Shares pursuant to the Company’s 2010 share incentive plan (the “2010 ESOP”), 9,073,732 Common Shares to the RS Holdco for distributions in the form of restricted shares pursuant to the Company’s 2013 share incentive plan (the “2013 RS Plan”), and a certain

 

25











 

number of Common Shares for distribution in the form of restricted shares pursuant to the Series E Incentive Plan (as defined in the Restated Articles) (together with the 2010 ESOP and 2013 RS Plan, collectively the “ESOP”) approved by the Board;

 

(ii)            any securities issued in connection with any share split, share dividend, subdivision, combination, reclassification or other similar event in which all Participation Rights Holders are entitled to participate on a pro rata basis, as approved by the Board;

 

(iii)           any securities issued pursuant to any public offering (including, without limitation, an initial public offering) of the Company;

 

(iv)          any securities issued pursuant to the acquisition of another corporation or entity by the Company by consolidation, merger, purchase of assets, or other reorganization in which the Company acquires, in a single transaction or series of related transactions, all or substantially all assets of such other corporation or entity, or fifty percent (50%) or more of the equity ownership or voting power of such other corporation or entity;

 

(v)           any Conversion Shares;

 

(vi)          any securities issued in connection with a strategic partnership or joint venture entered into by the Company, which shall not be a private equity, venture capital or other similar financing and shall be approved by the Board (including at least the affirmative vote of one (1) Xiaomi Director, the Kingsoft Director, the Series D Director, the Morningside Director and IDG Director); or

 

(vii)         any securities issued pursuant to the Primavera New Warrant and the warrant issued to Xiaomi in accordance with the Xiaomi Share Purchase Agreement.

 

3.4          Procedures.

 

(a)           First Participation Notice. In the event that the Company proposes to undertake an issuance of New Securities (in a single transaction or a series of related transactions), it shall give to each Participation Rights Holder written notice of its intention to issue New Securities (the “First Participation Notice”), describing the amount and type of New Securities, the price and the general terms upon which the Company proposes to issue such New Securities. Each Participation Rights Holder shall have fourteen (14) Business Days from the date of receipt of any such First Participation Notice to agree in writing to purchase such Participation Rights Holder’s Pro Rata Share of such New Securities (or any part thereof) for the price and upon the terms and conditions specified in the First Participation Notice by giving written notice to the Company and stating therein the quantity of New Securities to be purchased (not to exceed such Participation Rights Holder’s Pro Rata Share). If any Participation Rights Holder fails to so agree in writing within such fourteen (14) Business Day period, then such Participation Rights Holder shall be deemed to have forfeited the right hereunder to purchase that part of its Pro Rata Share of such New Securities that it did not agree to purchase.

 

26











 

(b)           Second Participation Notice; Oversubscription. If any Participation Rights Holder fails or declines to fully exercise its Right of Participation in accordance with subsection (a) above, the Company shall promptly give notice (the “Second Participation Notice”) to the other Participation Rights Holders who fully exercised their Right of Participation (the “Right Participants”) in accordance with subsection (a) above. Each Right Participant shall have five (5) Business Days from the date of receipt of the Second Participation Notice (the “Second Participation Period”) to notify the Company of its desire to purchase more than its Pro Rata Share of the New Securities, stating the number of the additional New Securities it proposes to buy (the “Additional Number”). Such notice may be made by telephone if confirmed in writing within two (2) Business Days. If, as a result thereof, such oversubscription exceeds the total number of the remaining New Securities available for purchase, each oversubscribing Right Participant will be cut back by the Company with respect to its oversubscription to that number of  remaining New Securities equal to the lesser of (x) the Additional Number and (y) the product obtained by multiplying (i) the number of the remaining New Securities available for subscription by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Common Shares (calculated on a fully-diluted and as-converted basis) held by such oversubscribing Right Participant and the denominator of which is the total number of Common Shares (calculated on a fully-diluted and as-converted basis) held by all the oversubscribing Right Participants. Each Right Participant shall be obligated to buy such number of New Securities as determined by the Company pursuant to this Section 3.4(b) and the Company shall so notify the Right Participants within fourteen (14) Business Days following the date of the Second Participation Notice.

 

(c)           Failure to Exercise. Upon the expiration of the Second Participation Period and to the extent that not all New Securities have been subscribed for by the Participation Rights Holders, or in the event no Participation Rights Holder exercises the Right of Participation within fourteen (14) days following the issuance of the First Participation Notice, the Company shall have 60 days thereafter to sell the New Securities described in the First Participation Notice (the portion to which the Right of Participation hereunder were not exercised) at the same or higher price and upon non-price terms not materially more favorable to the purchasers thereof than specified in the First Participation Notice. In the event that the Company has not issued and sold such New Securities within such 60 day period, then the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any New Securities without again first offering such New Securities to the Participation Rights Holders pursuant to this Section 3.

 

3.5          Termination. The Right of Participation for each Participation Rights Holder shall not terminate so long as any Investors and its Affiliates collectively hold any Series A-1 Shares, Series A Shares, Series B Shares, Series C Shares, Series D Shares, Series E Shares or Common Shares; provided, however, that the Right of Participation shall terminate upon the earlier of the closing of the initial public offering of the Company, a Liquidation Event or a Deemed Liquidation Event, or a Trade Sale.

 

4.                                      TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS.

 

4.1          Certain Definitions. For purposes of this Section 4, “Common Shares” means (i) the Company’s outstanding Common Shares, (ii) the Common Shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding options or warrants, and (iii) the Common Shares issuable upon conversion of any

 

27











 

outstanding convertible securities other than Conversion Shares; “Preferred Holder” means an Investor and its permitted assignees to whom its rights under this Section 4 have been duly assigned in accordance with this Agreement; “Common Holders” means the holders of any Common Shares; and “Restricted Shares” means any of the Company’s securities including, without limitation, the Common Shares, any Preferred Shares, or securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Shares.

 

4.2          Restriction on Sale. During the Restricted Period (as defined below), each holder of any class or series of Restricted Shares (such holder for the purposes of this Section 4, the “Restricted Shareholders”) agrees not to, directly or indirectly, transfer, sell or pledge or otherwise dispose of or permit the transfer, sale, pledge, or other disposition of, any Restricted Shares except in compliance with this Section 4. In the event of an involuntary transfer of  Restricted Shares during the Restricted Period pursuant to divorce, legal separation, bankruptcy or insolvency, such involuntary transfer shall be conducted in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Section 4. Each Restricted Shareholder (if applicable) shall procure that restrictions set forth in this Section 4 shall not be avoided by the direct or indirect transfer, sale, pledge, or other disposition of any shares (or other interest) in such Restricted Shareholder or of any other entity having control over such Restricted Shareholder.

 

4.3          Right of First Refusal and Right of Co-Sale.

 

(a)           Transfer Notice. If (i) a Restricted Shareholder proposes to, directly or indirectly, transfer, sell or pledge or otherwise dispose of or permit the transfer, sale, pledge, or other disposition of, any Restricted Shares held by him to one or more third parties or (ii) at any time any Restricted Shares held by such Restricted Shareholder are transferred involuntarily pursuant to divorce, legal separation, bankruptcy or other proceedings, death or any other involuntary transfer (each such disposition referenced in Sections 1.1, 1.3 and 4 hereof, a “Transfer”), then such Restricted Shareholder (or, in the event of an involuntary transfer, the person to whom the Offered Shares (as defined below) are to be transferred) (such Restricted Shareholder or person, a “Selling Shareholder”) shall give the Company and each Preferred Holder written notice of such Selling Shareholder’s intention to make such Transfer (the “Transfer Notice”), which Transfer Notice shall include (i) a description of the Restricted Shares to be transferred (the “Offered Shares”), (ii) the identity of the prospective transferee(s) and (iii) the consideration and the material terms and conditions upon which the proposed Transfer is to be made. The Transfer Notice shall certify that such Selling Shareholder has received a firm offer from the prospective transferee(s) and in good faith believes a binding agreement for the Transfer is obtainable on the terms set forth in the Transfer Notice. The Transfer Notice shall also include a copy of any written proposal, term sheet or letter of intent or other agreement relating to the proposed Transfer. The Transfer Notice shall constitute an irrevocable offer by the Selling Shareholder to sell the Offered Shares to the other Shareholders in the following order: firstly, to each holder of the Series E Shares (the “Series E Holder”), the Series D Shares (the “Series D Holder”), the Series C Shares (the “Series C Holder”) and the Series B Shares (the “Series B Holder”) on a pro rata and as converted basis, and for any remaining Offered Shares not purchased by the Series E Holders, Series D Holders, Series C Holders and the Series B Holders, to the holders of the Series A-1 Shares (the “Series A-1 Holder”), and for any remaining Offered Shares not purchased by the Series A-1 Holders, to the holders of the Series A Shares

 

28











 

(the “Series A Holder”), and for any remaining Offered Shares not purchased by the Series A Holders, to the Common Holders.

 

(b)           Option of Series E Holders, Series D Holders, Series C Holders and Series B Holders to Purchase.

 

(i)             Each of the Series B Holders, the Series C Holders, the Series D Holders and the Series E Holders who notifies such Selling Shareholder in writing within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Transfer Notice (the “Series B/C/D/E Purchase Period”) referred to in Section 4.3(a) (each a “Purchasing B/C/D/E Holder”) shall have the right, exercisable upon such written notice to the Selling Shareholder (the “Purchase and Co-Sale Notice”), to purchase up to its pro rata share of the Offered Shares plus up to its pro rata share of any Offered Shares not purchased by any other Series B Holder, Series C Holder, Series D  Holder or Series E Holder (the “Remaining Shares”) on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Transfer Notice, subject to Section 4.3(f)(i) below. The Purchase and Co-Sale Notice shall state (A) whether the Series E Holder, the Series D Holder, the Series C Holder or the Series B Holder desires to purchase up to its pro rata share of the Offered Shares, (B) whether the Series E Holder, the Series D Holder, the Series C Holder or the Series B Holder desires to purchase the maximum amount of its pro rata share of the Remaining Shares, and (C) whether the Series E Holder, the Series D Holder, the Series C Holder or the Series B Holder elects not to purchase any of the Offered Shares but wishes to sell a portion of the securities held by such Series E Holder, Series D Holder, Series C Holder or Series B Holder pursuant to Section 4.3(g) of this Agreement and the number of securities to be sold (subject to Section 4.3(g)(ii)). A Series E Holder, Series D Holder, Series C Holder or Series B Holder has option either to purchase or to sell under this Section 4 and such right shall not be construed as an option to both purchase and sell with respect to the same Transfer.  A Series E Holder, Series D Holder, Series C Holder or Series B Holder who either does not deliver a Purchase and Co-Sale Notice or indicates in the Purchase and Co-Sale Notice that such Series E Holder, Series D Holder, Series C Holder or Series B Holder elected not to purchase any of the Offered Shares shall be referred to herein as a “Non-Purchasing Holder”.

 

(ii)            Each Purchasing B/C/D/E Holder who sets forth in the Purchase and Co-Sale Notice a desire to purchase the maximum amount of Offered Shares available shall be entitled to purchase its pro rata share of the Remaining Shares.

 

(iii)           Each Purchasing B/C/D/E Holder’s pro rata share shall be equal to a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Conversion Shares held by such Purchasing B/C/D/E Holder and the denominator of which is the total number of Conversion Shares held by all Series B Holders, all Series C Holders, all Series D Holders and all Series E Holders calculated immediately prior to the time of the purchase hereunder from the Selling Shareholder, provided, however, that with respect to the Remaining Shares, the denominator shall be total number of Conversion Shares held by the Purchasing B/C/D/E Holders that are purchasing the Remaining Shares. Upon expiration of the Series B/C/D/E Purchase Period, the Selling Shareholder will provide notice to all Series B Holders, all Series C Holders, all Series D Holders and all Series E Holders as to whether or not the Right of First Refusal has been exercised by the

 

29











 

Series B Holders, the Series C Holders, the Series D Holders and the Series E Holders (the “Series B/C/D/E Expiration Notice”).

 

(c)           Series A-1 Holders’ Option to Purchase.

 

(i)             Series A-1 Transfer Notice. If any of the Offered Shares proposed in the Transfer Notice to be transferred are not purchased by the Series B Holders, the Series C Holders, the Series D Holders and the Series E Holders (the “Series A-1 Remaining Offered Shares”), then after the issue of the Series B/C/D/E Expiration Notice and subject to the co-sale rights set forth in this Agreement, the Selling Shareholder shall give the Series A-1 Holder an additional Transfer Notice (the “Series A-1 Transfer Notice”) which shall include an offer to sell the Series A-1 Remaining Offered Shares and all of the information and certifications required in a Transfer Notice.

 

(ii)            Each Series A-1 Holder who notifies such Selling Shareholder in writing within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Series A-1 Transfer Notice (the “Series A-1 Purchase Period”) referred to above (each a “Purchasing A-1 Holder”) shall have the right, exercisable upon such written notice to the Selling Shareholder in a Purchase and Co-Sale Notice, to purchase up to its pro rata share of the Series A-1 Remaining Offered Shares plus up to its pro rata share of any Series A-1 Remaining Offered Shares not purchased by any other Series A-1 Holder (the “Remaining A-1 Shares”) on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Series A-1 Transfer Notice, subject to Section 4.3(f)(i) below. The Purchase and Co-Sale Notice shall state (A) whether the Series A-1 Holder desires to purchase up to its pro rata share of the Series A-1 Remaining Offered Shares, (B) whether the Series A-1 Holder desires to purchase the maximum amount of its pro rata share of the Remaining A-1 Shares, and (C) whether the Series A-1 Holder elects not to purchase any of the Series A-1 Remaining Offered Shares but wishes to sell a portion of the securities held by such Series A-1 Holder pursuant to Section 4.3(g) of this Agreement and the number of securities to be sold (subject to Section 4.3(g)(ii)). A Series A-1 Holder has option either to purchase or to sell under this Section 4 and such right shall not be construed as an option to both purchase and sell with respect to the same Transfer.

 

(iii)           Each Purchasing A-1 Holder who sets forth in the Purchase and Co-Sale Notice a desire to purchase the maximum amount of the Series A-1 Remaining Offered Shares available shall be entitled to purchase its pro rata share of the Remaining A-1 Shares.

 

(iv)          Each Purchasing A-1 Holder’s pro rata share shall be equal to a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Conversion Shares held by such Purchasing A-1 Holder and the denominator of which is the total number of Conversion Shares held by all Series A-1 Holders calculated immediately prior to the time of the purchase hereunder from the Selling Shareholder, provided, however, that with respect to the Remaining A-1 Shares, the denominator shall be total number of Conversion Shares held by the Purchasing A-1 Holders that are purchasing the Remaining A-1 Shares. Upon expiration of the Series A-1 Purchase Period, the Selling Shareholder will provide notice to all Series A-1 Holders as to whether or not

the Right of First Refusal has been exercised by the Series A-1 Holders (the “Series A-1 Expiration Notice”).

 

(d)           Series A Holders’ Option to Purchase.

 

(i)             Series A Transfer Notice. If any of the Offered Shares proposed in the Transfer Notice to be transferred are not purchased by the Series A-1 Holders (the “Series A Remaining Offered Shares”), then after the issue of the Series A-1 Expiration Notice and subject to the co-sale rights set forth in this Agreement, the Selling Shareholder shall give each holder of Series A Shares (the “Series A Holders”) an additional Transfer Notice (the “Series A Transfer Notice”) which shall include an offer to sell the Series A Remaining Offered Shares and all of the information and certifications required in a Transfer Notice.

 

(ii)            Each Series A Holder who notifies such Selling Shareholder in writing within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Series A Transfer Notice (the “Series A  Purchase Period”) referred to above (each a “Purchasing A Holder”) shall have the right, exercisable upon such written notice to the Selling Shareholder in a Purchase and Co-Sale Notice, to purchase up to its pro rata share of the Series A Remaining Offered Shares plus up to its pro rata share of any Series A Remaining Offered Shares not purchased by any other Series A Holder (the “Remaining A Shares”) on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Series A Transfer Notice, subject to Section 4.3(f)(i) below. The Purchase and Co-Sale Notice shall state (A) whether the Series A Holder desires to purchase up to its pro rata share of the Series A Remaining Offered Shares, (B) whether the Series A Holder desires to purchase the maximum amount of its pro rata share of the Remaining A Shares, and (C) whether the Series A Holder elects not to purchase any of the Offered Shares but wishes to sell a portion of the securities held by such Series A Holder pursuant to Section 4.3(g) of this Agreement and the number of securities to be sold (subject to Section 4.3(g)(ii)). A Series A Holder has option either to purchase or to sell under this Section 4 and such right shall not be construed as an option to both purchase and sell with respect to the same Transfer.

 

(iii)           Each Purchasing A Holder who sets forth in the Purchase and Co-Sale Notice a desire to purchase the maximum amount of the Series A Remaining Offered Shares available shall be entitled to purchase its pro rata share of the Remaining A Shares.

 

(iv)          Each Purchasing A Holder’s pro rata share shall be equal to a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Conversion Shares held by such Purchasing A Holder and the denominator of which is the total number of Conversion Shares held by all Series A Holders calculated immediately prior to the time of the purchase hereunder from the Selling Shareholder, provided, however, that with respect to the Remaining A Shares, the denominator shall be total number of Conversion Shares held by the Purchasing A Holders that are purchasing the Remaining A Shares. Upon expiration of the Series A Purchase Period, the Selling Shareholder will provide notice to all Series A Holders as to whether or not the Right of First Refusal has been exercised by the Series A Holders (the “Series A Expiration Notice”).

 

31











 

(e)           Common Holders’ Option to Purchase.

 

(i)             Common Transfer Notice.  If any of the Offered Shares proposed in the Transfer Notice to be transferred are not purchased by the Series A Holders (the “Common Remaining Offered Shares”), then after the issue of the Series A Expiration Notice and subject to the co-sale rights set forth in this Agreement, the Selling Shareholder shall give each Common Holder an additional Transfer Notice (the “Common Transfer Notice”) which shall include an offer to sell the Common Remaining Offered Shares and all of the information and certifications required in a Transfer Notice.

 

(ii)            Each Common Holder who notifies such Selling Shareholder in writing within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Common Transfer Notice (the “Common Purchase Period”) referred to above (each a “Purchasing Common Holder”) shall have the right, exercisable upon such written notice to the Selling Shareholder in a Purchase and Co-Sale Notice, to purchase up to its pro rata share of the Common Remaining Offered Shares plus up to its pro rata share of any Common Remaining Offered Shares not purchased by any other  Common Holder (the “Remaining Common Shares”) on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Common Transfer Notice, subject to Section 4.3(f)(i) below. The Purchase and Co-Sale Notice shall state (A) whether the Common Holder desires to purchase up to its pro rata share of the Common Remaining Offered Shares, (B) whether the Common Holder desires to purchase the maximum amount of its pro rata share of the Remaining Common Shares, and (C) whether the Common Holder elects not to purchase any of the Offered Shares but wishes to sell a portion of the securities held by such Common Holder pursuant to Section 4.3(g) of this Agreement and the number of securities to be sold (subject to Section 4.3(g)(ii)). A Common Holder has option either to purchase or to sell under this Section 4 and such right shall not be construed as an option to both purchase and sell with respect to the same Transfer.

 

(iii)           Each Purchasing Common Holder who sets forth in the Purchase and Co-Sale Notice a desire to purchase the maximum amount of the Common Remaining Offered Shares available shall be entitled to purchase its pro rata share of the Remaining Common Shares.

 

(iv)          Each Purchasing Common Holder’s pro rata share shall be equal to a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Common Shares held by such Purchasing Common Holder and the denominator of which is the total number of Common Shares held by all Common Holders calculated immediately prior to the time of the purchase hereunder from the Selling Shareholder, provided, however, that with respect to the Remaining Common Shares, the denominator shall be total number of Common Shares held by the Purchasing Common Holders that are purchasing the Remaining Common Shares. Upon expiration of the Common Purchase Period, the Selling Shareholder will provide notice to all Common Holders as to whether or not the Right of First Refusal has been exercised by the Common Holders (the “Common Expiration Notice”).

 

(f)            Involuntary Transfers; Non-Cash Consideration.

 

(i)             In the event that the Transfer in question is by operation of law or another involuntary Transfer (including a Transfer incident to death, divorce, legal separation or

 

32











 

bankruptcy), the price per share shall be the greater of (A) the original purchase price paid by Selling Shareholder for such Offered Shares (adjusted for share splits, share dividends, combinations and the like) or (B) the fair market value of such Offered Shares, which shall be a price set by the Board that will reflect the current value of the Offered Shares in terms of present earnings and future prospects of the Company, determined within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Shareholders of the Transfer Notice. In the event that the Selling Shareholder or the Selling Shareholder’s executor disagrees with such valuation as determined by the Board, the Selling Shareholder or the Selling Shareholder’s executor shall be entitled to have the valuation determined by an independent appraiser to be mutually agreed upon by the Purchasing Shareholders and the Selling Shareholder or the Selling Shareholder’s executor, the fees of which appraiser shall be borne equally by the Purchasing Shareholders and the Selling Shareholder or the Selling Shareholder’s estate.

 

(ii)            In the event the consideration for the Offered Shares specified in a Transfer Notice is payable in property other than cash and the Shareholders who wish to purchase the Offered Shares under Section 4.3(b) (acting together), as the case may be, cannot agree on the cash value of such property within ten (10) days after such Shareholders’ receipt of the Transfer Notice, as the case may be, the value of such property shall be determined by an appraiser of recognized standing selected jointly by the Selling Shareholder and such Shareholders (acting together), as the case may be. If they cannot agree on an appraiser within twenty (20) days after receipt of the Transfer Notice by such Preferred Holders, as the case may be, within a further five(5)-day period, the Selling Shareholder and such Shareholders (acting together), as the case may be, shall each select an appraiser of recognized standing and the two appraisers shall designate a third appraiser of recognized standing to determine the value of such property. The value of such property shall be determined by the appraiser selected pursuant to this Section 4.3(f)(ii) within one (1) month from its appointment, and such determination shall be final and binding on the Selling Shareholder and such Shareholders, as the case may be. The cost of such appraisal shall be shared equally by the Selling Shareholder, on the one hand, and such Shareholders, as the case may be, on the other hand (each such Shareholder shall pay its pro rata portion of such costs based on the number of Offered Shares acquired by each such Shareholder). If the ten (10) day period as specified in Section 4.3 has expired but for the determination of the value of the consideration for the Offered Shares offered by the Selling Shareholder, then such ten (10) day period shall be extended to the fifth Business Day after such valuation shall have been determined to be final and binding pursuant to this Section 4.3(f)(ii).

 

(g)           Right of Co-Sale.

 

(i)             Following the expiration of the right of first refusal and purchase rights described in Sections 4.3(b), (c), (d) and (e), each Preferred Holder who previously notified the Selling Shareholder in the Purchase and Co-Sale Notice of such Preferred Holder’s desire to sell a portion of its shares with the Selling Shareholder (such Preferred Holder, a “Co-Sale Participant”) shall have the right to participate in the sale of any Offered Shares that were not purchased by the Shareholders pursuant to Sections 4.3(b), (c), (d) and (e), on the same terms

 

33











 

and conditions as specified in the Transfer Notice; provided, however, that (a) holders of Series A-1 Shares shall not be entitled to participate under this Section 4.3(g)(i) and shall not be deemed as a Co-Sale Participant as provided in Section 4.3(g)(ii) unless all Co-Sale Participants holding Series B Shares, Series C Shares, Series D Shares and Series E Shares have first exercised or declined to exercise their right of co-sale under this Section 4.3(g); (b) holders of Series A Shares shall not be entitled to participate under this Section 4.3(g)(i) and shall not be deemed as a Co-Sale Participant as provided in Section 4.3(g)(ii) unless all Co-Sale Participants holding Series A-1 Shares have first exercised or declined to exercise their right of co-sale under this Section 4.3(g); and (c) no Preferred Holders shall be entitled under this Section 4.3(g) to participate in Transfers of Restricted Shares by a Selling Shareholder incident to divorce, legal separation, bankruptcy or other proceedings, or death or in any other involuntary Transfers of Restricted Shares by a Selling Shareholder. To the extent one or more Preferred Holders exercise such right of co-sale in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth below, the  number of Restricted Shares that the Selling Shareholder may sell in the Transfer shall be correspondingly reduced. Shareholders shall not have any right of first refusal to purchase the Shares to be sold by the Co-Sale Participants pursuant to this Section 4.3(g).

 

(ii)            Each Co-Sale Participant may sell all or any part of that number of Conversion Shares equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) the Offered Shares, less (x) any Offered Shares purchased pursuant to Sections 4.3(b), (c), (d) and (e), (y) when holders of Series A-1 Shares shall be deemed Co-Sale Participants, any Conversion Shares that holders of Series B Shares, Series C Shares, Series D Shares and Series E Shares shall have elected to co-sell under this Section 4.3(g), and (z) when holders of Series A Shares shall be deemed Co-Sale Participants, any Conversion Shares that holders of Series A-1 Shares, Series B Shares, Series C Shares, Series D Shares and Series E Shares shall have elected to co-sell under this Section 4.3(g), by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Co-Sale Shares (as defined below) owned by such Co-Sale Participant and the denominator of which shall be the total number of Co-Sale Shares held by all Co-Sale Participants and the Common Shares (assuming full conversion of outstanding Preferred Shares) held by the Selling Shareholder, calculated immediately prior to the time of the Transfer. For the purpose of this Section 4.3(g)(ii), “Co-Sale Shares” means (A) any Common Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of the Series B, Series C Shares, Series D Shares or Series E Shares if the Co-Sale Participants are the holders of Series B, Series C Shares, Series D Shares and Series E Shares, (B) any Common Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of the Series A-1 Shares if the Co-Sale Participants are the holders of Series A-1 Shares, and (C) any Common Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of the Series A Shares if the Co-Sale Participants are the holders of Series A Shares.

 

(h)           Transferred Shares. Each Co-Sale Participant shall effect its participation in the sale by promptly delivering to the Selling Shareholder for transfer to the prospective purchaser a duly executed instrument of transfer and one or more certificates, which represent:

 

(i)             the series and number of securities of the Company which such Co-Sale Participant elects to sell;

 

34











 

(ii)            that number of Common Shares, or that number of Preferred Shares which are at such time convertible into the number of Common Shares, which such Co-Sale Participant elects to sell; provided, however, that if the prospective third-party purchaser objects to the delivery of Preferred Shares in lieu of Common Shares, such Co-Sale Participant shall first convert such Preferred Shares into Common Shares and transfer the Common Shares as provided in this Section 4.3(h). The Company agrees to make any such conversion concurrently with the actual transfer of such shares to the purchaser and contingent upon such Transfer; or

 

(iii)           a combination of the above.

 

(iv)          Payment. The share certificate or certificates that the Co-Sale Participant delivers to such Selling Shareholder pursuant to Section 4.3(h) shall be returned to the Company for cancellation in consummation of the sale of the Offered Shares pursuant to the  terms and conditions specified in the Transfer Notice, and such Selling Shareholder shall concurrently therewith remit to such Co-Sale Participant that portion of the sale proceeds to which such Co-Sale Participant is entitled by reason of its participation in such sale. To the extent that any prospective purchaser or purchasers prohibit(s) such assignment or otherwise refuse(s) to purchase shares or other securities from a Co-Sale Participant exercising its rights of co-sale hereunder, such Selling Shareholder shall not sell to such prospective purchaser or purchasers any Restricted Shares unless and until, simultaneously with such sale, such Selling Shareholder shall purchase such shares or other securities from such Co-Sale Participant for the same consideration and on the same terms and conditions as the proposed Transfer described in the Transfer Notice. The Company shall, upon receiving the relevant instruments of transfer duly executed by the Co-Sale Participant and the surrendering by the Co-Sale Participant or the Selling Shareholder of the certificates for the Preferred Shares or Common Shares being transferred as provided above, make proper entries in the register of members of the Company and cancel the surrendered certificates and issue any new certificates in the name of the prospective purchaser or the Selling Shareholder, as the case may be, as necessary to consummate the transactions in connection with the exercise by the Co-Sale Participant of their co-sale rights under this Section 4.3.

 

4.4          Non-Exercise of Rights. To the extent that the Shareholders have not exercised their rights to purchase all of a Selling Shareholder’s Offered Shares, such Selling Shareholder together with any Co-Sale Participant shall have a period of sixty (60) days from the expiration of such rights to sell any remaining Offered Shares, upon terms and conditions (including the purchase price) no more favorable to the purchaser than those specified in the Transfer Notice, to the third-party transferee(s) identified in the Transfer Notice. The third-party transferee(s) shall, as a condition to the effectiveness of Transfer of the Offered Shares, furnish the Company and the Shareholders with a written agreement to be bound by and comply with this Agreement, including without limitation all provisions of this Section 4, as if such transferee(s) were a Selling Shareholder hereunder, as well as the terms of the agreement pursuant to which such Restricted Shares were issued. In the event a Selling Shareholder does not consummate the sale or disposition of the Offered Shares within the sixty (60)-day period from the expiration

 

35











 

of these rights, the Shareholders’ first refusal rights hereunder shall continue to be applicable to any subsequent disposition of the Restricted Shares by such Selling Shareholder. Furthermore, the exercise or non-exercise by the Shareholders to purchase Restricted Shares from such Selling Shareholder shall not adversely affect the Shareholders’ rights to make subsequent purchases from any Selling Shareholder of Restricted Shares. Any proposed Transfer on terms and conditions different from those described in the Transfer Notice, as well as any subsequent proposed Transfer of any of the Selling Shareholders’ Restricted Shares shall again be subject to the right of the Shareholders under this Section 4 and shall require compliance by the relevant Selling Shareholder with the procedures described in this Section 4.

 

4.5          Exempt Transfers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any right or restriction as provided in this Section 4 shall not apply to (a) any repurchase of Shares by the Company pursuant to any right of repurchase in the event of a termination of employment or consulting relationship or pursuant to the terms of the ESOP, (b) any transfer to  (x) the immediate family member of the Selling Shareholder or any entity that is wholly owned by the Selling Shareholder, if the Selling Shareholder is a Founder or Founder Holdco, or (y) an Affiliate of the Selling Shareholder, if the Selling Shareholder is a shareholder of the Company other than any Founder or Founder Holdco, provided that the transferee so transferred shall not be a Competitor of any of the Group Companies, (c) in the case of a Transferor that is a natural person, transfers by the Transferor upon his or her death by will or intestacy to his or her siblings, children, grandchildren, spouse or any other relatives approved by unanimous consent of the Board, or any transfer to the parents, children or spouse, or to trusts for the exclusive benefit of such persons, of any Common Holder for bona fide tax and/or estate planning purposes, (d) any transfer by a Founder or a Partner to any Person not exceeding ten per cent (10%) of all Shares held by him on the date hereof (for the purpose of this Agreement, “Partners” mean collectively Huang Peng, a PRC citizen whose ID number is ****, and Wang Xiaoming, a PRC citizen whose ID number is ****; and “Partner” means any of them), (e) notwithstanding the foregoing subsection (d), any repurchase of Shares by the Company from the Founders pursuant to the Xiaomi Share Pursuant Agreement and any transfer of additional 532,328 Shares by Huang Peng to any Person, and (f) without limiting the foregoing subsection (a), any transfer by Fidelity to any Fidelity Persons or charitable organization, provided that the transferee so transferred shall not be a Competitor of any of the Group Companies (each transferee pursuant to the foregoing subsections (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f), a “Permitted Transferee”); provided that adequate documentation therefor is provided to the Investors to their satisfaction and that any such Permitted Transferee agrees in writing to be bound by this Agreement in place of the relevant transferor; provided, further, that such transferor shall remain liable for any breach by such Permitted Transferee of any provision hereunder. Each Shareholder (other than the Selling Shareholder) hereby waives its right of first refusal and right of co-sale under this Section 4 in respect of such transfer of Restricted Shares to any Permitted Transferee. For the purpose of this Agreement, “Fidelity Persons” means (1) Fidelity International Limited (“FIL”), a company incorporated in Bermuda, and any subsidiary undertaking of FIL from time to time (FIL and its subsidiary undertakings being the “FIL Group”); (2) FMR Corp. (“FMR”), a Delaware corporation, and any subsidiary undertaking of FMR from time to time (FMR and its subsidiary undertakings being the “FMR Group”); (3) any director,

For the purpose of this Agreement, “Affiliate” means (a) in relation to any individual other than a Founder, the immediate family of such individual or any entity controlled by such individual, (b) in relation to a Founder or Founder Holdco, the immediate family of such Founder or any entity  wholly owned by such Founder or Founder Holdco (whether by himself or together with other Founders), and (c) in relation to any legal person, any other person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the specified person; provided that, for the purpose of this Section 4, the “Affiliate” of any Selling Shareholder other than any Founder or Founder Holdco shall mean (x) any person in which such Selling Shareholder directly or indirectly owns the voting of more than 75% of the total outstanding equity interest, (y) any person which directly or indirectly owns the voting of more than 75% of the total outstanding equity interest in such Selling Shareholder, or (z) any person which is under the common control with the Selling Shareholder by any other person which directly or indirectly owns the voting of more than 75% of the total equity interest in both such person and such Selling Shareholder. For purposes of this definition and notwithstanding the definition with respect to Fidelity Entities in clause (3) above, a person shall be deemed to be “controlled by” another person if the other possesses, directly or indirectly, power either (i) to vote fifty percent (50%) or more of the securities having voting power for the election of directors of such person, or (ii) to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such person whether by contract or otherwise.

 

4.6          Prohibited Transfers.

 

(a)           In the event a Selling Shareholder should sell any Restricted Shares in contravention of the transfer restrictions in this Section 4 or such Selling Shareholder fails to procure that its transferee (whether a third party transferee, an affiliate or otherwise) agree in writing to be bound by and comply with the rights and obligations of such Selling Shareholder under this Agreement, including, without limitation, all provisions of this Section 4 (each, a “Prohibited Transfer”), the Preferred Holders, in addition to such other remedies as may be available at law, in equity or hereunder, shall have the put option provided below and such Selling Shareholder shall be bound by the applicable provisions of such option.

 

(b)           In the event of a Prohibited Transfer, each Preferred Holder shall have the right to sell to such Selling Shareholder the type and number of shares of Common Shares, Conversion Shares or Preferred Shares equal to the number of shares each Preferred Holder would have been

 

37











 

entitled to transfer to the third-party transferee(s) under Section 4.3(g) hereof had the Prohibited Transfer been effected pursuant to and in compliance with the terms hereof (assuming the Company had not exercised its right of first refusal and no Preferred Holder had elected to become Purchasing Holders). Such sale shall be made on the following terms and conditions:

The Selling Shareholder shall also reimburse each Preferred Holder for any and all fees and expenses, including legal fees and expenses, incurred pursuant to the exercise or the attempted exercise of the Preferred Holder’s rights under this Section 4.

 

(ii)            Within thirty (30) days after the later of the dates on which the Preferred Holder (A) received notice of the Prohibited Transfer or (B) otherwise became aware of the Prohibited Transfer, each Preferred Holder shall, if exercising the option created hereby, deliver  to such Selling Shareholder a duly executed instrument of transfer and the certificate or certificates representing shares to be sold.

 

(iii)           The Selling Shareholder shall, upon receipt of the certificate or certificates for the shares to be sold by a Preferred Holder, pursuant to this Section 4.6, pay the aggregate purchase price therefor and the amount of reimbursable fees and expenses, as specified in Section 4.6(b)(i), in cash or by other means acceptable to the Preferred Holder.

 

(iv)          Notwithstanding the foregoing, any attempt by such Selling Shareholder to transfer Restricted Shares in violation of this Section 4 hereof shall be null and void and the Company agrees it will not effect such a Transfer nor will it treat any alleged transferee(s) as the holder of such shares without the written consent of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding Series A Shares, the holders of a majority of the then outstanding Series B Shares, the holders of a majority of the then outstanding Series C Shares, the holders of a majority of the then outstanding Series D Shares, and the holders of at least 75% of the then outstanding Series E Shares, each voting together as a separate class.

In the event that any Series D Holder has elected to exercise its Series D Redemption Right pursuant to Section 10.2(a) and, prior to the payment by the Company of the aggregate Series D Redemption Price in full, any Series E Holder has elected to exercise its Series E Redemption Right pursuant to Section 10.2(b), (i) the Company shall first redeem all of the Shares requested by such Series D Holder to be redeemed and pay to such Series D Holder the full amount of the aggregate Series D Redemption Price, and (ii) the Company may  not redeem, and no Series E Holder may cause the Company to redeem, any Series E Shares unless and until payment has been made in full in respect of the aggregate Series D Redemption Price.

(a)                                 All parties hereto acknowledge that (i) the anti-dilution right of the Series C Investors (the “Series C Anti-dilution Right”) pursuant to Article 66(3)(a)(iv) of the Third Amended and Restated Articles of Association of the Company, adopted as of April 14, 2011, was triggered as a result of the Company’s issuance of Series D Shares to the Series D Investor pursuant to the Series D Share Purchase Agreement, and (ii) the then effective Series C Conversion Price was adjusted by the Company to be US$4.14 as per Article 66(3)(a)(iv) of the Third Amended and Restated Articles of Association of the Company, in lieu of issuance of additional Shares to the Series C Investors, to fully satisfy the Series C Anti-dilution Right of the Series C Investors.  Each Series C Investor hereby acknowledges and confirms that its Series C Anti-dilution Right has been fully and sufficiently compensated by the Company’s such adjustment of the then effective Series C Conversion Price, and it will not further request to exercise any Series C Anti-dilution Right in connection with the issuance of the Series D Shares.

 

(b)                                 All parties hereto acknowledge that (i) the anti-dilution right of Series C Shares held by CRP Holding Limited (“CRP Holding”) and Series D Shares (the “Series C/D Anti-dilution Right”) pursuant to Article 66(3)(a)(iv) of the Fourth Amended and Restated Articles of Association of the Company, dated February 6, 2012 and amended on January 29, 2014, was triggered as the result of the Company’s issuance of Series E Shares to Xiaomi pursuant to the Xiaomi Share Purchase Agreement and to Kingsoft, Morningside and IDG TVI V pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, and (ii) the then effective applicable Conversion Prices with respect to Series C Shares and Series D Shares was adjusted by the Company to be US$3.63116696 (with respect to Series C Shares held by CRP Holding), and US$2.85991759 (with respect to Series D Shares) respectively, as per Article 66(3)(a)(iv) of the Fourth Amended

 

58











 

and Restated Articles of Association of the Company, in lieu of issuance of additional Shares to CRP Holding and the Series D Investor, to fully satisfy the Series C/D Anti-dilution Right of CRP Holding and the Series D Investor (the “Agreed Adjustment”).  Each of CRP Holding and the Series D Investor hereby acknowledges and confirms that its Series C/D Anti-dilution Right has been fully and sufficiently compensated by the Company’s such adjustment of the applicable Conversion Prices, and it will not further request to exercise any Series C/D Anti-dilution Right in connection with the issuance of the Series E Shares pursuant to the Xiaomi Share Purchase Agreement and the Share Purchase Agreement (but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any issuance of Series E Shares pursuant to the warrants relating thereto).

 

10.4                        Repurchase of Shares held by Primavera.  All parties hereto agree that the Company shall repurchase from Primavera 469,225 Common Shares, 27,180 Series A Shares, 591,451 Series A-1 Shares, 725,237 Series B Shares and 3,808,943 Series D Shares with a total consideration of US$24,275,665.3 on or before April 15, 2014.

10.5                        Dual Class Voting Structure. In the event that the Company shall implement a dual class voting structure (the “Dual Class Structure”) immediately prior to (and effective subject to) the completion of the Company’s initial public offering where the existing Common Shares and Common Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares will be re-designated into two (2) different classes of common shares carrying different voting rights, then the Common Shares held by the Founder Holdcos and Common Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of the Series E Shares shall be converted and re-designated into that class of common shares carrying greater voting rights.

 

11.                               GENERAL PROVISIONS.

 

11.1                        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 G 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 other party as set forth in Exhibit G; or (d) three (3) Business Days after deposit with an international overnight delivery service, postage prepaid, addressed to the parties as set forth in Exhibit G 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

 

59











 

designate additional addresses, for purposes of this Section 11.1 by giving the other party written notice of the new address in the manner set forth above.

 

11.2                        Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Share Purchase Agreement and any Transaction Agreements (as defined in the Share Purchase Agreement), together with all the exhibits hereto and thereto, constitute and contain the entire agreement and understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior negotiations, correspondence, agreements, understandings, duties or obligations between the parties respecting the subject matter hereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement supersedes, in its entirety, the Sixth Restated Shareholders Agreement, which shall terminate and have no further force or effect whatsoever as of the date of this Agreement, and the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waive any and all rights that they may have against any other party under the Sixth Restated Shareholders Agreement in exchange for their rights hereunder.

 

11.3                        Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed exclusively in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York.

 

11.4                        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.

 

11.5                        Third Parties. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any person, other than the parties hereto and their permitted successors and assigns any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

11.6                        Successors and Assigns. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, the successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto.

 

11.7                        Interpretation; Captions. 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 captions to sections of this Agreement have been inserted for identification and reference purposes only and shall not be used to construe or interpret this Agreement. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all references to Sections and Exhibits herein are to Sections and Exhibits of this Agreement.

11.8                        Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

 

11.9                        Adjustments for Share Splits, Etc. Wherever in this Agreement there is a reference to a specific number of shares of Series A-1 Shares, Series A Shares, Series B Shares, Series C Shares, Series D Shares, Series E Shares or Common Shares of the Company, then, upon the occurrence of any subdivision, combination or share dividend of the Series A-1 Shares, Series A Shares, Series B Shares, Series C Shares, Series D Shares, Series E Shares or Common Shares, the specific number of shares so referenced in this Agreement shall automatically be proportionally adjusted to reflect the effect on the outstanding shares of such class or series of shares by such subdivision, combination or share dividend.

 

11.10                 Future Significant Common Holders. Except with the written consent of the holders of at least 75% of then outstanding Series E Shares, the holders of at least a majority of then outstanding Series D Shares, the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding Series C Shares and the holders of at least a majority of then outstanding Series B Shares, each voting together as a separate class, the Company covenants that, until the completion of the initial public offering of the Company’s securities, it will cause each Partner (to the extent such Partner directly holds any Common Shares) and all future holders of the Common Shares to join this Agreement as a party. The parties hereby agree that such future holders may become parties to this Agreement by executing an instrument of accession to this Agreement in a standard and customary form reasonably satisfactory to the Company, without any amendment of this Agreement, pursuant to this Section 11.10.

 

11.11                 Shareholders Agreement to Control. If and to the extent that there are inconsistencies between the provisions of this Agreement and those of the Restated Articles, the terms of this Agreement shall control with respect to each of the shareholders of the Company only. If appropriate, the parties agree to take all actions necessary or advisable, as promptly as practicable after the discovery of such inconsistency, to amend the Restated Articles so as to eliminate such inconsistency to the fullest extent permissible by law. Each Founder shall cause his respective holding company as set forth on Schedule B attached hereto (each, a “Holding Company”), which holds of record the Common Shares, to comply with the provisions of this Agreement applicable to such Holding Company as a holder of Common Shares.

 

11.12                 Aggregation of Shares. All Series A-1 Shares, Series A Shares, Series B Shares, Series C Shares, Series D Shares, Series E Shares or Common Shares held or acquired by entities or persons which are Affiliates (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) shall be aggregated together for the purpose of determining the availability of any rights under this Agreement.

11.13                 Dispute Resolution.

 

(a)                                 In the event of any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, including any question regarding its breach, existence, validity, or termination (“Dispute”), the parties shall in good faith attempt to resolve such Dispute as soon as practicable after the complaining party provides notice of such Dispute. In the event that the Dispute is not resolved between the parties within five (5) business days after receipt of such notice, on the request of the party raising the Dispute, the Dispute shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration under the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC”) then in effect. There shall be three arbitrators, one nominated by the initiating party and the second nominated by the other party, each within fifteen (15) days of receipt of the request for arbitration; the third, who shall act as the chair of the arbitral tribunal, shall be nominated by the two selected arbitrators within twenty (20) days of the confirmation of the second arbitrator. If any arbitrators are not nominated within these time periods, the ICC International Court of Arbitration shall make the appointment(s). The place of arbitration shall be Hong Kong. The language of the arbitral proceedings shall be English. The arbitral tribunal shall apply the International Bar Association Rules on the Taking of Evidence in International Arbitration (2010). The arbitrators may award any relief permitted under this Agreement and applicable law; however they may not award punitive, exemplary or multiple damages. The award shall be rendered within eight (8) months from the selection of the chair of the arbitral tribunal, unless the parties agree to extend this time limit or the arbitral tribunal determines that the interest of justice so requires. The award shall be final and binding upon the parties as from the date rendered, and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between the parties regarding any claims, counterclaims, issues, or accounting presented to the arbitral tribunal. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties shall remain in full force and effect pending the award in any arbitration proceeding hereunder. The parties agree that any party to this Agreement shall have the right to have recourse to and shall be bound by the Pre-arbitral Referee Procedure of the ICC in accordance with its Rules for a Pre-Arbitral Referee Procedure.

 

(b)                                 The parties hereto shall initially split the costs of arbitration evenly. The prevailing party in arbitration shall be entitled to recover from the other party all costs, including of arbitration, and attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with the arbitration.

 

11.14                 Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party hereto, upon any breach or default of any other party hereto under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such former party, 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. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any party hereto of any breach of default under this Agreement or any waiver on the part of any party hereto 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 parties hereto, shall be cumulative and not alternative.
