EX-10.3



 Exhibit 10.3 

INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT 

This Indemnification Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made as of
            , 201    , by and among Tuniu Corporation, a company organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Company”), and each
indemnitee executing and delivering this agreement (the “Indemnitee”). 
 RECITALS 

The Company and Indemnitee recognize the increasing difficulty in obtaining liability insurance for directors and officers, the significant
increases in the cost of such insurance and the general reductions in the coverage of such insurance. The Company and Indemnitee further recognize the substantial increase in corporate litigation in general, subjecting directors and officers to
expensive litigation risks at the same time as the availability and coverage of liability insurance has been severely limited. Indemnitee does not regard the current protection available as adequate under the present circumstances, and Indemnitee
and agents of the Company may not be willing to continue to serve the Company without additional protection. The Company desires to attract and retain the involvement of highly qualified groups, such as Indemnitee, and to indemnify its directors and
officers so as to provide them with the maximum protection permitted by law. 
 AGREEMENT 

In consideration of the mutual promises made in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby
acknowledged, the Company and Indemnitee hereby agree as follows: 
 1. Indemnification. 

(a) Third Party Proceedings. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee if Indemnitee is or
was a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, arbitration or proceeding or alternative dispute resolution mechanism, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (each, a
“Proceeding”) (other than an action by or in the right of the Company) by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or any Related Entity of the Company, or is or was serving
at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, or by reason of any action or inaction on the part of Indemnitee while
serving in any such capacity (such reasons, collectively, the “Corporate Status”), against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (if such settlement is approved in
advance by the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with such Proceeding if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or
not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any Proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction,
or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
Company, or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful. For purposes of this Agreement, “Related Entity” means any parent, subsidiary and any
other corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business entity in which the Company, its parent or subsidiary holds, or has the right to acquire, a substantial ownership interest in or control over such entity, either directly or
indirectly. 







 (b) Proceedings By or in the Right of the Company. To the fullest extent
permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee if Indemnitee was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any Proceeding by or in the right of the Company or any Related Entity of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor
by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or any Related Entity of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, or by reason of any action or inaction on the part of Indemnitee while serving in any such capacity, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees)
and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, amounts paid in settlement (if such settlement is approved in advance by the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), in each case to the extent actually and reasonably incurred by
Indemnitee in connection with the defense or settlement of such Proceeding if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, except that no indemnification
shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which Indemnitee shall have been finally adjudicated by court order or judgment to be liable to the Company in the performance of Indemnitee’s duty to the Company and its shareholders
unless and only to the extent that the court in which such Proceeding is or was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and
reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such court shall deem proper. 
 (c) Mandatory Payment of
Expenses. To the extent that Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any Proceeding referred to in Section 1(a) or Section 1(b) or the defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, Indemnitee
shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection therewith. 

2. No Employment Rights. Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to create in Indemnitee any right to continued
employment. 
 3. Expenses; Indemnification Procedure. 

(a) Advancement of Expenses. The Company shall advance all expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the
investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of any Proceeding referred to in Section l(a) or Section 1(b) of this Agreement (including amounts actually paid in settlement of any such Proceeding). Indemnitee hereby undertakes to repay such
amounts advanced only if, and to the extent that, it shall ultimately be determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized hereby. 

  
 2 








 (b) Notice/Cooperation by Indemnitee. Indemnitee shall, as a condition
precedent to his or her right to be indemnified under this Agreement, give the Company notice in writing as soon as practicable of any Proceeding against Indemnitee for which indemnification will or could be sought under this Agreement. Notice to
the Company shall be directed to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and shall be given in accordance with the provisions of Section 12(d) below. In addition, Indemnitee shall give the Company such information and cooperation as it may
reasonably require and as shall be within Indemnitee’s power. 
 (c) Procedure. Any indemnification and advances provided
for in Section 1 and this Section 3 shall be made no later than thirty (30) days after the Company’s receipt of the written request of Indemnitee. If a claim under this Agreement, under any statute, or under any provision of the
Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, as may be amended from time to time (the “Restated Memorandum and Articles”) providing for indemnification, is not paid in full by the Company within thirty
(30) days after a written request for payment thereof has first been received by the Company, Indemnitee may, but need not, at any time thereafter bring an action against the Company to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, subject to
Section 11 of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall also be entitled to be paid for the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) of bringing such action. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for
expenses incurred in connection with any Proceeding in advance of its final disposition) that Indemnitee has not met the standards of conduct which make it permissible under applicable law for the Company to indemnify Indemnitee for the amount
claimed, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the Company and Indemnitee shall be entitled to receive interim payments of expenses pursuant to Section 3(a) unless and until such defense may be finally adjudicated by court order or
judgment from which no further right of appeal exists. It is the parties’ intention that if the Company contests Indemnitee’s right to indemnification, the question of Indemnitee’s right to indemnification shall be for the court to
decide, and neither the failure of the Company (including its Board of Directors, any committee or subgroup of the Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its shareholders) to have made a determination that indemnification of Indemnitee is
proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct required by applicable law, nor an actual determination by the Company (including its Board of Directors, any committee or subgroup of the Board of Directors,
independent legal counsel, or its shareholders) that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that Indemnitee has or has not met the applicable standard of conduct. 

(d) Notice to Insurers. If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of a claim pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof, the
Company has liability insurance in effect, the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of such Proceeding to the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies. The Company shall thereafter take all
necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such Proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies. 

  
 3 








 (e) Selection of Counsel. In the event the Company shall be obligated under
Section 3(a) hereof to pay the expenses of any Proceeding against Indemnitee, the Company, if appropriate, shall be entitled to assume the defense of such Proceeding at its own expense, with counsel approved by Indemnitee, upon the delivery to
Indemnitee of written notice of its election so to do. After delivery of such notice, approval of such counsel by Indemnitee and the retention of such counsel by the Company, the Company will not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement for any
fees of counsel subsequently incurred by Indemnitee with respect to the same Proceeding, provided that (i) Indemnitee shall have the right to employ counsel in any such Proceeding at Indemnitee’s expense; and (ii) if (A) the
employment of counsel by Indemnitee has been previously authorized by the Company, (B) Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the Company and Indemnitee in the conduct of any such defense or
(C) the Company shall not, in fact, have employed counsel to assume the defense of such Proceeding, then the fees and expenses of Indemnitee’s counsel shall be at the expense of the Company. The Company shall not settle any Proceeding in
any manner that would impose any penalty or limitation on the Indemnitee without the Indemnitee’s written consent. Neither the Company nor the Indemnitee will unreasonably withhold or delay their consent to any proposed settlement. 

4. Additional Indemnification Rights; Nonexclusivity. 

(a) Scope. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement but subject to Section 9 of this Agreement, the Company
hereby agrees to indemnify the Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by law against all expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf as a result of his Corporate
Status, notwithstanding that such indemnification is not specifically authorized by the other provisions of this Agreement, the Company’s Restated Memorandum and Articles, or by statute. In the event of any change, after the date of this
Agreement, in any applicable law, statute, or rule which expands the right of a Cayman Islands company to indemnify a member of its board of directors or an officer, such changes shall be deemed to be within the purview of Indemnitee’s rights
and the Company’s obligations under this Agreement. In the event of any change in any applicable law, statute or rule which narrows the right of a Cayman Islands company to indemnify a member of its board of directors or an officer, such
changes, to the extent not otherwise required by such law, statute or rule to be applied to this Agreement shall have no effect on this Agreement or the parties’ rights and obligations hereunder. 

(b) Nonexclusivity. The indemnification provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any rights to which
Indemnitee may be entitled under the Company’s Restated Memorandum and Articles, any agreement, any vote of shareholders or disinterested members of the Company’s Board of Directors, the Companies Law or other laws of the Cayman Islands,
as amended from time to time, or otherwise, both as to action in Indemnitee’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office. The indemnification provided under this Agreement shall continue as to Indemnitee
for any action taken or not taken while serving in an indemnified capacity even though he or she may have ceased to serve in any such capacity at the time of any Proceeding or at the time any liability or expense is incurred for which
indemnification can be provided under this Agreement. 
 5. Partial Indemnification. If Indemnitee is entitled under
any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some or a portion of the expenses, judgments, fines, penalties or amounts paid in settlement actually or reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in the investigation, defense, appeal or
settlement of any Proceeding, but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion of such expenses, judgments, fines, penalties or amounts paid in settlement to which Indemnitee is
entitled. 

  
 4 








 6. Mutual Acknowledgment. Both the Company and Indemnitee acknowledge that
in certain instances, U.S. federal law or public policy or the laws of the applicable jurisdiction may prohibit the Company from indemnifying its directors and officers under this Agreement or otherwise (and, in the case of U.S. federal law,
override applicable U.S. state law). For example, the Company and Indemnitee acknowledge that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) has taken the position that indemnification is not permissible for liabilities
arising under certain U.S. federal securities laws, and U.S. federal legislation prohibits indemnification for certain ERISA violations. Indemnitee understands and acknowledges that the Company has undertaken or may be required in the future to
undertake with the SEC to submit the question of indemnification to a court in certain circumstances for a determination of the Company’s right under public policy to indemnify Indemnitee. 

7. Liability Insurance. The Company shall, from time to time, make the good faith determination whether or not it is
practicable for the Company to obtain and maintain a policy or policies of insurance with reputable insurance companies providing the directors and officers of the Company with coverage for losses from wrongful acts, or to ensure the Company’s
performance of its indemnification obligations under this Agreement. Among other considerations, the Company will weigh the costs of obtaining such insurance coverage against the protection afforded by such coverage. In all policies of such
liability insurance, Indemnitee shall be named as an insured in such a manner as to provide Indemnitee the same rights and benefits as are accorded to the most favorably insured of the Company’s directors, if Indemnitee is a director; or of the
Company’s officers, if Indemnitee is not a director of the Company but is an officer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to obtain or maintain such insurance if the Company determines in good faith that such
insurance is not reasonably available, if the premium costs for such insurance are disproportionate to the amount of coverage provided, if the coverage provided by such insurance is limited by exclusions so as to provide an insufficient benefit, or
if Indemnitee is covered by similar insurance maintained by a Related Entity of the Company. 
 8. Severability.
Nothing in this Agreement is intended to require or shall be construed as requiring the Company to do or fail to do any act in violation of applicable law. The Company’s inability, pursuant to court order, to perform its obligations under this
Agreement shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement shall be severable as provided in this Section 8. If this Agreement or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent
jurisdiction, then the Company shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Agreement that shall not have been invalidated, and the balance of this Agreement not so invalidated shall be
enforceable in accordance with its terms. 
 9. Exceptions. Any other provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding,
the Company shall not be obligated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement: 
 (a) Claims Initiated by Indemnitee. To
indemnify or advance expenses to Indemnitee with respect to Proceedings initiated or brought voluntarily by Indemnitee and not by way of defense, except with respect to Proceedings brought to establish or enforce a right to indemnification under
this Agreement or any other statute or law or otherwise as required under applicable laws, but such indemnification or advancement of expenses may be provided by the Company in specific cases if the Board of Directors finds it to be appropriate;


  
 5 








 (b) Lack of Good Faith. To indemnify Indemnitee for any expenses incurred by
Indemnitee with respect to any Proceeding instituted by Indemnitee to enforce or interpret this Agreement, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that each of the material assertions made by Indemnitee in such Proceeding was not made in
good faith or was frivolous; 
 (c) Insured Claims. To indemnify Indemnitee for expenses or liabilities of any type
whatsoever (including, but not limited to, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties, and amounts paid in settlement) to the extent such expenses or liabilities have been paid directly to Indemnitee by an insurance carrier under a policy of
officers’ and directors’ liability insurance maintained by the Company; or 
 (d) Claims under
Section 16(b). To indemnify Indemnitee for expenses or the payment of profits arising from the purchase and sale by Indemnitee of securities in violation of Section 16(b) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, or any similar successor statute. 
 10. Construction of Certain Phrases. 

(a) For purposes of this Agreement, references to the “Company” shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any
constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, employees or agents,
so that if Indemnitee is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation,
partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, Indemnitee shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Agreement with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as Indemnitee would have with
respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued. 
 (b) For purposes of this Agreement, references to
“other enterprises” shall include employee benefit plans; references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on Indemnitee with respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at
the request of the Company” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee or agent with respect to an employee benefit
plan, its participants, or beneficiaries; and if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan, Indemnitee shall be deemed to
have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Company” as referred to in this Agreement; references to the “expenses” shall include, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, retainers, court costs,
transcript costs, fees and expenses of experts, travel expenses, duplicating costs, printing and binding costs, telephone charges, postage, delivery service fees and other disbursements or expenses of the types customarily incurred in connection
with prosecuting, defending, preparing to prosecute or defend, investigating, participating, or being or preparing to be a witness in a Proceeding, or responding to, or objecting to, a request to provide discovery in any Proceeding, and shall also
include expenses incurred in connection with any appeal resulting from any Proceeding and any federal, state, local or foreign taxes imposed on Indemnitee as a result of the actual or deemed receipt of any payments under this Agreement, including
without limitation the premium, security for, and other costs relating to any cost bond, supersede as bond or other appeal bond or its equivalent, but shall not include the amount of judgments, fines or penalties against Indemnitee or amounts paid
in settlement in connection with such matters.

 11. Attorneys’ Fees. In the event that any action is instituted by
Indemnitee under this Agreement to enforce or interpret any of the terms hereof, Indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid all court costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Indemnitee with respect to such action,
unless as a part of such action, the court of competent jurisdiction determines that each of the material assertions made by Indemnitee as a basis for such action were not made in good faith or were frivolous. In the event of an action instituted by
or in the name of the Company under this Agreement or to enforce or interpret any of the terms of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid all court costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by Indemnitee in defense
of such action (including with respect to Indemnitee’s counterclaims and cross-claims made in such action), unless as a part of such action the court determines that each of Indemnitee’s material defenses to such action were made in bad
faith or were frivolous. 
 12. Miscellaneous. 

(a) Governing Law. This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties
hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the laws of [the Cayman Islands], without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. 

(b) Entire Agreement; Enforcement of Rights. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and understanding of the
parties relating to the subject matter herein and merges all prior discussions between them. No modification of or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, shall be effective unless in writing signed by the
parties to this Agreement. The failure by either party to enforce any rights under this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any rights of such party. 

(c) Construction. This Agreement is the result of negotiations between and has been reviewed by each of the parties
hereto and their respective counsel, if any; accordingly, this Agreement shall be deemed to be the product of all of the parties hereto, and no ambiguity shall be construed in favor of or against any one of the parties hereto. 

(d) Notices. Any notice, demand or request required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and
shall be deemed sufficient when delivered personally or sent by fax or 48 hours after being sent by nationally-recognized courier or deposited in the mail (or the postal service of the applicable jurisdiction), as certified or registered mail, with

 (e) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Either party may execute this Agreement by facsimile or scanned signature, and the other party will be entitled to rely on such
facsimile or scanned signature as conclusive evidence that this Agreement has been duly executed by such party. 
 (f) Successors and
Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns, and inure to the benefit of Indemnitee and Indemnitee’s heirs, legal representatives and assigns. 

(g) Subrogation. Except as provided under Section 1(d), in the event of payment to Indemnitee by the Company under
this Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all documents required and shall do all acts that may be necessary to secure such rights and to enable
the Company to effectively bring suit to enforce such rights.
