1.3                               Jurisdiction. The terms of this Agreement are drafted primarily in contemplation of an offering of securities in the U.S. The Parties recognize, however, the possibility that securities may be qualified or registered in a jurisdiction other than the U.S. for offering to the public or that the Company might effect an offering in the U.S. in the form of American Depositary Receipts or American Depositary Shares. Accordingly:

 

(a)                                 It is their intention that, whenever this Agreement refers to a Law, form, process or institution of the U.S. but the Parties wish to effectuate qualification or registration in a different jurisdiction, reference in this Agreement to the Laws or institutions of the U.S. shall be read as referring, mutatis mutandis, to the comparable Laws or institutions of the jurisdiction in question; and

 

(b)                                 It is agreed that the Company will not list American Depositary Receipts, American Depositary Shares or any other security derivative of the Company’s Common Shares unless arrangements have been made reasonably satisfactory to a Majority-in-Interest of the Holders of the then outstanding Class A Registrable Securities, the Holders of the then outstanding Series A Registrable Securities, of the Holders of the then outstanding Series B Registrable Securities, of the Holders of the then outstanding Series C Registrable Securities, of the Holders of the then outstanding Series D Registrable Securities (provided that if such Holders include Crawford, Crawford’s consent shall be required only if no Crawford Default has occurred) and of the Holders of the then outstanding Series E Registrable Securities (each voting as a separate class) to ensure that the spirit and intent of this Agreement will be realized and that the Company is committed to take such actions as are necessary such that the Holders will enjoy rights corresponding to the rights hereunder to sell their respective Registrable Securities in a public offering in the U.S. substantially similar to those as if the Company had listed Common Shares in lieu of such derivative securities.

 

1.4                               Prior Agreement. The parties to the Prior Agreement hereby agree that the Prior Agreement is hereby amended and restated by this Agreement which supersedes in all respects the terms of the Prior Agreement and that this Agreement shall govern the matters as set forth herein.

 

1.5                               Termination of Prior ROFO Agreement. The parties to that certain Right of First Offer and Co-Sale Agreement (the “Prior ROFO Agreement”) dated April 17, 2008 hereby agree that the Prior ROFO Agreement has been terminated without any liabilities to any party thereto, effectively as of September 2, 2010.

 

1.6                               Acknowledgment of Series E Preferred Shares. Each of the Investors (other than Ctrip) hereby acknowledges that it has agreed to the transactions contemplated under the Transaction Documents and has waived all participation rights, anti-dilution rights (if any), preemptive rights or other rights of similar nature that he, she or it might have pursuant to the Prior Agreement, the Memorandum and Articles or any other agreement, with respect to the issuance of the Series E Preferred Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents and the securities to be issued upon conversion or exercise of the Series E Preferred Shares, as applicable.

19











 

notice to the Initiating Holders of its bona fide intention to effect the filing for its own account of a Registration Statement of Common Shares within sixty (60) days of receipt of that request; provided, that the Company is actively employing in good faith its reasonable best efforts to cause that Registration Statement to become effective within sixty (60) days of the initial filing; provided, further, that the Holders are entitled to join such Registration subject to Section 2.2; or

 

(2)                                 during the period starting with the date of filing by the Company of, and ending six (6) months following the effective date of any Registration Statement pertaining to the Common Shares of the Company; provided, that the Holders are entitled to join such Registration subject to Section 2.2 (other than a registration of securities in a transaction under Rule 145 of the Securities Act or with respect to an employee benefit plan).

 

(ii)                                  If, after receiving a request from the Holders pursuant to Section 2.1(a) or Section 2.1(b) hereof, the Company furnishes to the Holders a certificate signed by the chief executive officer of the Company stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board, it would be materially detrimental to the Company or its members for a Registration Statement to be filed in the near future, then the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period during which such filing would be materially detrimental, provided, that such deferral by the Company shall not exceed ninety (90) days from the receipt of any request duly submitted by the Holders under Section 2.1(a) or Section 2.1(b) to Register Registrable Securities; provided, further, that the Company may not Register any other of its Securities during such ninety (90) day period (except for Registrations contemplated by Section 2.2(d)); provided, further, that the Company shall not utilize this right more than once in any twelve (12) month period.

 

(d)                                 Underwritten Offerings. If, in connection with a request to Register Registrable Securities under Section 2.1(a) or Section 2.1(b), the Initiating Holders seek to distribute such Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering, they shall so advise the Company as a part of the request, and the Company shall include such information in the written notice to the other Holders described in Section 2.1(a) and Section 2.1(b). 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 underwritten offering and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwritten offering (unless otherwise mutually agreed by a Majority-in-Interest of the Initiating Holders and such Holder) to the extent provided herein. All the Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwritten offering shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters of internationally recognized standing selected for such underwritten offering by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the Majority-in-Interest of all the Registrable Securities proposed to be included in such Registration; provided however, that the Holders shall only be obligated to give representations and warranties under such underwriting agreement that are customary in similar agreements in relation to their ownership of the Registrable Securities and due authorization to enter such underwriting agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the managing underwriter advises the Company that marketing factors (including without limitation the aggregate number of securities requested to be Registered, the general condition of the market, and the status of the Persons proposing to sell securities pursuant to the Registration) require a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities to be underwritten in a Registration pursuant to Section 2.1(a) or Section 2.1(b), the underwriters may exclude from the underwriting offering up to 75% of the Registrable Securities requested to be Registered but only after first excluding all other Equity Securities held

 

20









 

by any director, officer, employee or consultant of the Company or any other Common Shareholder of the Company from the Registration and underwritten offering and so long as the number of shares to be included in the Registration on behalf of the non-excluded Holders is allocated among all Holders in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable Securities requested by such Holders to be included, provided, that if, as a result of such underwriter cutback, the Holders cannot include in the underwritten offering all of the Registrable Securities that they have requested to be included therein, then such Registration shall not be deemed to constitute one of the two (2) demand Registrations to which the Holders are entitled pursuant to Section 2.1(a). Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwritten offering shall be withdrawn from the Registration.

 

2.2                            Piggyback Registrations.

 

(a)                                 Registration of the Company’s Securities. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, if the Company proposes to Register for its own account any of its Equity Securities, or for the account of any holder (other than a Holder) of Equity Securities any of such holder’s Equity Securities, in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (except as set forth in Section 2.2(d)) (other than a Qualified IPO), the Company shall promptly give each Holder written notice of such Registration and, upon the written request of any Holder given within fifteen (15) days after delivery of such notice, the Company shall use its best efforts to include in such Registration any Registrable Securities thereby requested to be Registered by such Holder. The Company’s obligation to effect the piggyback Registration pursuant to this Section 2.2(a) is unlimited. If a Holder decides not to include all or any of its Registrable Securities in such Registration by the Company, such Holder shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include any Registrable Securities in any subsequent Registration Statement or Registration Statements as may be filed by the Company, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.

 

(b)                                 Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any Registration initiated by it under Section 2.2(a) prior to the effectiveness of such Registration, whether or not any Holder has elected to participate therein. The expenses of such withdrawn Registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 2.3(c).

 

(c)                                  Underwriting Requirements.

 

(i)                                     In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of the Company’s Equity Securities solely for cash, the Company shall not be required to Register the Registrable Securities of a Holder under this Section 2.2 unless such Holder’s Registrable Securities are included in the underwritten offering and such Holder enters into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters of internationally recognized standing selected by the Company and setting forth such terms for the underwritten offering as have been agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters; provided however, that the Holders shall only be obligated to give representations and warranties under such underwriting agreement that are customary in similar agreements in relation to their ownership of the Registrable Securities and due authorization to enter such underwriting agreement. In the event the underwriters advise Holders seeking Registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2.2 in writing that market factors (including the aggregate number of Registrable Securities requested to be Registered, the general condition of the market, and the status of the

 

21











 

Persons proposing to sell securities pursuant to the Registration) require a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities to be underwritten, the underwriters may exclude from the underwriting offering up to 75% of the Registrable Securities requested to be Registered but only after first excluding all other Equity Securities held by any director, officer, employee or consultant of the Company or any other Common Shareholder of the Company from the Registration and underwriting and so long as the Registrable Securities to be included in such Registration on behalf of any non-excluded Holders are allocated among all Holders in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable Securities requested by such Holders to be included.

 

(ii)                                  If any Holder disapproves the terms of any underwriting, the Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriters delivered at least ten (10) days prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from the underwritten offering shall be withdrawn from the Registration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any Registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 2.1(a) or Section 2.1(b) if the Registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be registered (in which case all participating Holders shall bear such expenses pro rata based upon the number of Registrable Securities that were to be included in the withdrawn registration).

 

(d)                                 Exempt Transactions. The Company shall have no obligation to Register any Registrable Securities under this Section 2.2 in connection with a Registration by the Company (i) relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in a Company share plan, or (ii) relating to a corporate reorganization or other transaction under Rule 145 of the Securities Act (or comparable provision under the Laws of another jurisdiction, as applicable); (iii) on any form that does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities, or (iv) relating to a registration in which the only Common Shares being registered are Common Shares issuable upon conversion of debt securities that are also being registered.

 

2.3.                            Registration Procedures.

 

(a)                              Registration Procedures and Obligations. Whenever required under this Agreement to effect the Registration of any Registrable Securities held by the Holders, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:

 

(i)                                 Prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement with respect to those Registrable Securities and use its reasonable best efforts to cause that Registration Statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the Holders holding a majority of the Registrable Securities Registered thereunder, keep the Registration Statement effective for up to one hundred and eighty (180) days or, if earlier, until the distribution thereunder has been completed; provided, however, that (a) such one hundred and eighty (180) day period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period any Holder refrains from selling any Registrable Securities included in such Registration at the written request of the underwriter(s) for such Registration, and (b) in the case of any Registration of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 or Form F-3 that are intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed basis, subject to compliance with

 

22











 

applicable rules promulgated by the Commission, such 180-day period shall be extended for up to an additional sixty (60) days, if necessary, to keep the Registration Statement effective until all such Registrable Securities are sold;

 

(ii)                              Prepare and file with the Commission amendments and supplements to that Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of Applicable Securities Laws with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by the Registration Statement;

 

(iii)                           Furnish to the Holders the number of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, required by Applicable Securities Laws, and any other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by them;

 

(iv)                          Use its reasonable best efforts to Register and qualify the securities covered by the Registration Statement under the securities Laws of any jurisdiction, as reasonably requested by the Holders, provided, that the Company shall not be required to qualify to do business or file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdictions;

 

(v)                             In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in customary form, with the managing underwriter(s) of the offering;

 

(vi)                          Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under Applicable Securities Laws of (a) the issuance of any stop order by the Commission, or (b) the happening of any event or the existence of any condition as a result of which any prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing;

 

(vii)                       Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities Registered pursuant to the Registration Statement and, where applicable, a number assigned by the Committee on Uniform Securities Identification Procedures for all those Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of the Registration; and

 

(viii)                    Take all reasonable action necessary to list the Registrable Securities on the primary exchange on which the Company’s securities are then traded or in connection with a Qualified IPO, the primary exchange on which the Company’s securities will be traded.

 

(b)                                 Information from the Holder. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Securities of any selling Holder that such Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be required to effect the Registration of such Holder’s Registrable Securities.

 

23











 

(c)                               Expenses of Registration. All expenses, other than the underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement (which shall be borne by the Holders requesting Registration on a pro rata basis in proportion to their respective numbers of Registrable Securities sold in such Registration), incurred in connection with Registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to this Agreement, including (without limitation) all Registration, filing and qualification fees, printers’ and accounting fees, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and reasonable fees and disbursement of counsels for all selling Holders, shall be borne by the Company. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay for any expenses of any Registration proceeding begun pursuant to this Agreement if the Registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of a Majority-in-Interest of the Holders requesting such Registration (in which case all participating Holders shall bear such expenses pro rata based upon the number of Registrable Securities that were to be thereby Registered in the withdrawn Registration) provided that such withdrawal is not due to an action or inaction of the Company or an event outside of the reasonable control of such Holders.

 

2.4.                            Registration-Related Indemnification.

 

(a)                                 Company Indemnity.

 

(i)                                     To the maximum extent permitted by Law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, such Holder’s partners, officers, directors, shareholders, legal counsel and accountants, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) and each Person, if any, who controls (as defined in the Securities Act) such Holder or underwriter, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under Laws which are applicable to the Company and relate to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any Registration, qualification, or compliance, 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 (each a “Violation”): (a) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such Registration Statement, on the effective date thereof (including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto), (b) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement, on the effective date thereof (including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto), a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (c) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of Applicable Securities Laws, or any rule or regulation promulgated under Applicable Securities Laws. The Company will reimburse each such Holder, underwriter or controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action.

 

(ii)                                  The indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.4(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 consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), 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 solely out of or is solely based upon a Violation that occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished for use in connection with such Registration by any such Holder, underwriter or controlling person. Further, the

 

24











 

foregoing indemnity agreement with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Holder or other aforementioned person, or any person controlling such Holder, from whom the person asserting any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities purchased shares in the offering, if a copy of the most current prospectus was not sent or given by or on behalf of such Holder or other aforementioned person to such person, if required by Law to have been so delivered, at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the shares to such person, and if the prospectus (as so amended or supplemented) would have cured the defect giving rise to such loss, claim, damage or liability.

 

(b)                                 Holder Indemnity.

 

(i)                                 To the maximum extent permitted by Law, each selling Holder that has included Registrable Securities in a Registration will, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, legal counsel and accountants, any underwriter, any other Holder selling securities in connection with such Registration and each Person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act) the Company, such underwriter or other Holder, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which any of the foregoing persons may become subject, under Applicable Securities Laws, or any rule or regulation promulgated under Applicable Securities Laws, 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 for use in connection with such Registration; and each such Holder will reimburse any Person intended to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.4(b), for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. No Holder’s liability under this Section 2.4(b) shall exceed the net proceeds (less underwriting discounts and selling commissions) received by such Holder from the offering of securities made in connection with that Registration.

 

(ii)                                  The indemnity contained in this Section 2.4(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 consent of the Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

 

(c)                                  Notice of Indemnification Claim. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Section 2.4(a) or Section 2.4(b) 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 Section 2.4(a) or Section 2.4(b), 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 indemnifying parties. An indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties that may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the reasonably incurred 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 differing 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

 

25











 

of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party, to the extent so prejudiced, of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 2.4, but the omission to 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 2.4.

 

(d)                              Contribution. If any indemnification provided for in Section 2.4(a) or Section 2.4(b) is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to herein, the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and of the indemnified party, on the other, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined 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.

 

(e)                                  Underwriting Agreement. To the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control.

 

(f)                                   Survival. The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 2.4 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement under this Agreement.

 

2.5.                            Additional Registration-Related Undertakings.

 

(a)                                 Reports under the Exchange Act. With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and any comparable provision of any Applicable Securities Laws that may at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without Registration or pursuant to a Registration on Form F-3 or Form S-3 (or any comparable form in a jurisdiction other than the U.S.), the Company agrees to:

 

(i)                                 make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 (or comparable provision, if any, under Applicable Securities Laws in any jurisdiction where the Company’s securities are listed), at all times following ninety (90) days 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;

 

(ii)                                  file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under all Applicable Securities Laws; and

 

(iii)                               at any time following ninety (90) days 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 by the Company, promptly furnish to any Holder holding Registrable Securities,

 

26











 

upon request (a) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of all Applicable Securities Laws at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements or, at any time after so qualified, that it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form F-3 or Form S-3 (or any form comparable thereto under Applicable Securities Laws of any jurisdiction where the Company’s securities are listed), (b) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents as filed by the Company with the Commission, and (c) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing any Holder of any rule or regulation of the Commission, that permits the selling of any such securities without Registration or pursuant to Form F-3 or Form S-3 (or any form comparable thereto under Applicable Securities Laws of any jurisdiction where the Company’s Securities are listed).

 

(b)                                 Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. From and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Ctrip, Crawford (so long as no Crawford Default has occurred), GS, CDH and Qiming, enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any Equity Securities of the Company that would allow such holder or prospective holder to (i) include such Equity Securities in any Registration filed under Section 2.1 or Section 2.2, unless under the terms of such agreement such holder or prospective holder may include such Equity Securities in any such Registration only to the extent that the inclusion of such Equity Securities will not reduce the amount of the Registrable Securities of the Holders that are included, (ii) demand Registration of their securities, or (iii) cause the Company to include such Equity Securities in any Registration filed under Section 2.1 or Section 2.2 hereof on a basis more favorable to such holder or prospective holder than is provided to the Holders thereunder.

 

(c)                                  “Market Stand-Off” Agreement. Each Holder agrees, if so required by the managing underwriter(s), that it will not during the period commencing on the date of the final prospectus relating to the Company’s IPO and ending on the date specified by the Company and the managing underwriter (such period not to exceed one hundred and eighty (180) days from the date of such final prospectus) (i) lend, offer, pledge, hypothecate, hedge, sell, make any short sale of, loan, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Equity Securities (other than those included in such offering) or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Equity Securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Equity Securities or such other securities, in cash or otherwise; provided, that (x) all directors, officers and all other holders of share capital of the Company must be bound by restrictions substantially identical to those applicable to any Holder pursuant to this Section 2.5(c), (y) all Holders will be released from any restrictions set forth in this Section 2.5(c) to the extent that any other members subject to substantially similar restrictions are released, and (z) the lockup agreements shall permit Holders to transfer their Registrable Securities to their respective Affiliates so long as the transferees enters into the same lockup agreement. Nothing in this section shall limit the rights identified at Section 8.9(i) and (ii). The underwriters in connection with the Company’s IPO are intended third party beneficiaries of this Section 2.5(c) and shall have the right, power and authority to enforce the provisions hereof as though they were a party hereto. In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may place restrictive legends on the certificates and impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to

 

27











 

the Registrable Securities of each shareholder (and the shares or securities of every other person subject to the foregoing restriction) until the end of such period.

 

(d)                                 Termination of Registration Rights. The registration rights set forth in Section 2.1 and Section 2.2 of this Agreement shall terminate on the date that is three (3) years from the date of the closing of a Qualified IPO.

 

(e)                                  Exercise of Preferred Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in this Agreement, the Company shall have no obligation to Register Registrable Securities which, if constituting Common Share Equivalents, have not been exercised, converted or exchanged, as applicable, for Common Shares.

 

3.                                      Share Transfer

 

3.1                               Restriction on Transfer of Shares.

 

(a)                                 Prohibition on Founder and Management Transfers. Unless otherwise permitted in this Section 3 or approved in writing by Ctrip, Crawford (provided that Crawford’s approval shall not be required if a Crawford Default has occurred), GS, Qiming and CDH, neither the Founder nor any other Common Shareholder shall transfer, sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate, or otherwise encumber or dispose of in any way all or any part of any direct or indirect interest in any Equity Securities of the Company now or hereafter owned or held by such Person at any time after the date hereof, provided that after the completion of the Qualified IPO, each Common Shareholder shall be entitled in each calendar year to dispose of up to 5% of the Equity Securities of the Company held by such Common Shareholder at the beginning of such calendar year.

 

(b)                                 Restriction on Common Shareholder Transfers. Subject to Section 3.1(e), during the term of this Agreement, no Common Shareholder may transfer any direct or indirect interest in any Equity Securities now or hereafter owned or held by him, her or it except pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3.

 

(c)                                  Prohibition on Preferred Shareholder Transfers. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, unless approved in writing by Crawford, no Class A Investor, Series A Investor, Series B Investor, Series C Investor or Series E Investor shall transfer any Equity Securities of the Company in a Private Sale to (i) any Company Global Competitor at any time after the date hereof, (ii) any Company Non-Global Competitor within eighteen (18) months following the Series D Closing, or (iii) any Company Non-Global Competitor at any time after eighteen (18) months following the Series D Closing, unless as a result of such sale and related purchases, the purchaser will acquire at least 51% of the total outstanding share capital of the Company (including without limitation, pursuant to a Change of Control Event). In the event of any such sale to a Company Non-Global Competitor, such Company Non-Global Competitor must agree, as a condition to such sale, to assume the obligations of the Company (or other applicable member of the Company Group) under (x) the Global Affiliation Agreement (as defined in the Series D Share Purchase Agreement) pursuant to a written agreement reasonably acceptable to Crawford, and (y) Section 7.17 of the Series D Share Purchase Agreement, unless Crawford otherwise agrees in its sole discretion. For avoidance of doubt, Crawford (so long as no Crawford Default has occurred and Crawford holds no less than 5% of the Company’s then total outstanding

 

28











 

share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis) shall have no obligation to sell any Series D Preferred Shares or Common Shares issued or issuable upon conversion thereof, pursuant to any transaction described in Section 3.1(c)(iii). The transfer restrictions set forth in this Section 3.1(c) and the consent rights of Crawford under this Section 3.1(c) shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of (a) a Crawford Default having occurred or (b) Crawford ceasing to hold at least 5% of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis.

 

(d)                                 Prohibited Transfers Void. Any transfer of Equity Securities not made in compliance with this Agreement shall be null and void as against the Company, shall not be recorded on the books and register of members of the Company and shall not be recognized by the Company.

 

(e)                                  Permitted Transfer. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained herein, the Founder or any other Common Shareholder may transfer the Equity Securities held by him free of any restrictions to a trustee or other fiduciary for his account or his immediate family in connection with a tax or estate planning transactions provided that such transferee, as to the transferred Equity Securities, executes such documents and takes such other actions as may be necessary for such transferee to join in and be bound by this Agreement as a “Common Shareholder” upon and after such transfer. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained herein, an Investor may transfer the Equity Securities held by it free of any restrictions to an Affiliate provided that the Affiliate transferee, as to the transferred Equity Securities, executes such documents and takes such other actions as may be necessary for such Affiliate transferee to join in and be bound by this Agreement as an “Investor” upon and after such transfer.

 

3.2                               Right of First Refusal.

 

(a)                                 Transfer Notice. Subject to Section 3.1, (1) if any combination of Class A Investor, Series A Investor, Series B Investor, Series C Investor and/or Series E Investor receive a written bona fide firm offer from any Company Non-Global Competitor, at any time after eighteen (18) months following the Series D Closing, as a result of which the Company Non-Global Competitor will acquire more than 51% of the total outstanding share capital of the Company (including without limitation, pursuant to a Change of Control Event) at a consideration payable in cash, on a Fully-Diluted Basis, through one or a series of transactions, from such Investor(s) any Equity Securities of the Company in a Private Sale and such Investor(s) intend(s) to sell such Equity Securities to such Company Non-Global Competitor in a Private Sale, or (2) if any combination of Class A Investor, Series A Investor, Series B Investor, Series C Investor and/or Series E Investor intends to sell any Equity Securities of the Company to a Private Competitor Investor, such transferor (the “Transferor”) shall give the Company, Ctrip (so long as Ctrip holds no less than 4.5% of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis and provided that Ctrip is not the Transferor), Crawford (so long as no Crawford Default has occurred and Crawford holds no less than 5% of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis) and each other shareholder (including Common Shareholders and Preferred Shareholders) who is not the Transferor (the “Non-Selling Investors”) written notice (a “Transfer Notice”) of the Transferor’s intention to seek such transfer (a “Transfer”), which shall include (i) a description of the Equity Securities to be transferred (the “Offered Shares”), (ii) the identity of such Company Non-Global Competitor or Private Competitor Investor, as the case may be, (iii) the consideration and the material terms and conditions upon which the proposed Transfer

 

29











 

is to be made, and (iv) a copy of the offer made by such Company Non-Global Competitor or Private Competitor Investor, as the case may be. The Transfer Notice shall certify that the Transferor in good faith believes a binding agreement for the Transfer is obtainable on the terms set forth in the Transfer Notice. A Transfer Notice may be withdrawn by the relevant Transferor by giving written notice before the end of the associated ROFR Period and/or ROFR Option Period (each as defined below) to the Company, Ctrip, Crawford and each of the Non-Selling Investors. For avoidance of doubt, no Class A Investor, Series A Investor, Series B Investor, Series C Investor or Series E may sell its Preferred Shares or Common Shares issued or issuable on conversion thereof pursuant to this Section 3.2 for consideration other than cash, without the prior written consent of each of Ctrip (so long as Ctrip holds no less than 4.5% of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis and provided that Ctrip is not the Transferor) and Crawford (so long as no Crawford Default has occurred and Crawford holds no less than 5% of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis).

 

(b)                                 Ctrip and Crawford’s Options. For any such proposed Transfer, each of Ctrip (so long as Ctrip holds no less than 4.5% of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis and provided that Ctrip is not the Transferor) and Crawford (in the case of Crawford, only so long as no Crawford Default has occurred and Crawford holds no less than five percent (5%) of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis), shall have ten (10) days (the “ROFR Period”) following receipt of such Transfer Notice to elect to purchase all (but not less than all) of the Offered Shares at the same price and subject to the same material terms and conditions as described in the Transfer Notice, by providing a written notice of acceptance to the Transferor, each Non-Selling Investor and the Company within the ROFR Period, provided that if both Ctrip and Crawford choose to exercise their options under this Section 3.2(b), they shall each receive a pro rata share of the Offered Shares in proportion to the number of Registrable Securities they each hold in the Company.

 

(c)                                  Non-Selling Investors’ Option.

 

(i)                                     For any proposed Transfer prior to the Qualified IPO and to the extent that each of Ctrip and Crawford fails to exercise its rights (if any) pursuant to Section 3.2(b) above, each Non-Selling Investor shall have an option for a period of ten (10) days following the receipt of the Transfer Notice (or if ROFR Period is applicable, the expiration of the ROFR Period) (the “ROFR Option Period”) to elect to purchase all or any portion of its respective pro rata share (as defined below) of the Offered Shares at the same price and subject to the same material terms and conditions as described in the Transfer Notice, by notifying the Transferor, Ctrip, Crawford and the Company in writing before expiration of the ROFR Option Period as to the number of such Offered Shares that it wishes to purchase.

 

(ii)                                  For the purposes of this Section 3.2(c), each Non-Selling Investor’s “pro rata share” of the Offered Shares shall be equal to (i) the total number of Offered Shares multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Equity Securities of the Company held by such Non-Selling Investor on the date of the Transfer Notice and the denominator of which shall be the total number of Equity Securities held by all the Non-Selling Investors on such date, on a Fully-Diluted Basis.

 

30









 

(iii)                               If any Non-Selling Investor fails to exercise its right to purchase its full pro rata share of the Offered Shares, the Transferor shall deliver written notice (the “Second Notice”) within five (5) days after the expiration of the ROFR Option Period to the Company and each Non-Selling Investor that elected to purchase its entire pro rata share of the Offered Shares (an “Exercising Investor”). The Exercising Investors shall have a right of re-allotment, and may exercise an additional right to purchase such unpurchased Offered Shares by notifying the Transferor and the Company in writing within ten (10) days after receipt of the Second Notice (the “Re-allotment Period”); provided, however, that if the Exercising Investors desire to purchase in aggregate more than the number of such unpurchased Offered Shares, then such unpurchased Offered Shares will be allocated to the extent necessary among the Exercising Investors in accordance with their relative pro rata shares.

 

(iv)                              Subject to Applicable Securities Laws, each Non-Selling Investor shall be entitled to apportion the Offered Shares to be purchased under this Section 3.2 among its Affiliates upon written notice to the Company and the Transferor.

 

(d)                                 Procedure. If Ctrip (so long as Ctrip holds no less than 4.5% of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis), Crawford (so long as no Crawford Default has occurred and Crawford holds no less than five percent (5%) of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis) or any Non-Selling Investor gives the Transferor notice that it desires to purchase the Offered Shares, and, as the case may be, its re-allotment, then payment for the Offered Shares to be purchased shall be by check or wire transfer in immediately available funds of the appropriate currency, against delivery of such Offered Shares to be purchased at a place agreed to by the Transferor, and Ctrip, Crawford or all the participating Non-Selling Investors, as the case may be, and at the time of the scheduled closing therefor, which shall be no later than forty-five (45) days after delivery of the Transfer Notice.

 

(e)                                  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.2, if the total number of such Offered Shares that Ctrip and Crawford collectively or the Non-Selling Investors collectively indicate an interest in purchasing in the ROFR Period, the ROFR Option Period and the Re-allotment Period (as the case may be) is less than the total number of Offered Shares, then Ctrip, Crawford and the Non-Selling Investors shall be deemed to have forfeited any right to purchase the Offered Shares, and the Transferor shall be free to sell all, but not less than all, of the Offered Shares to the third party purchasers upon terms and conditions (including the purchase price) no more favorable to such third party purchaser than those specified in the Transfer Notice, provided that such sale shall be consummated within ninety (90) days after receipt of the Transfer Notice by the Company.

 

3.3                               Ctrip’s Right of First Refusal.

 

In addition to Section 3.1, if any Common Shareholder or Preferred Shareholder intends to sell any Equity Securities of the Company to the Ctrip Competitors (the “Ctrip Transferor”), such Ctrip Transferor shall give Ctrip written notice of the Ctrip Transferor’s intention to seek such Transfer (the “Ctrip Transfer Notice”), which shall include the same information as outlined in Transfer Notice required under the Section 3.2(a) above. For any such proposed transfer contemplated under this Section 3.3, Ctrip (so long as Ctrip holds no less than 4.5% of the

 

31











 

Company’s then outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis) shall have ten (10) days (the “Ctrip ROFR Period”) following receipt of the Ctrip Transfer Notice to elect to purchase all (but not less than all) of the offered shares (the “Ctrip Offered Shares”) set forth under the Ctrip Transfer Notice, at the same price and subject to the same material terms and conditions as described in the Ctrip Transfer Notice, by providing a written notice of acceptance to the Ctrip Transferor within the Ctirp ROFR Period. If Ctrip (so long as Ctrip holds no less than 4.5% of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis), duly gives the Ctrip Transferor notice that it desires to purchase all the Ctrip Offered Shares, then payment for the Ctrip Offered Shares to be purchased shall be by check or wire transfer in immediately available funds of the appropriate currency, against delivery of such Ctrip Offered Shares to be purchased at a place agreed to by the Ctrip Transferor and Ctrip and at the time that shall be no later than forty-five (45) days after delivery of the Ctrip Transfer Notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.3, if the total number of such Ctrip Offered Shares that Ctrip indicates an interest in purchasing in the Ctrip ROFR Period is less than the total number of Ctrip Offered Shares, then Ctrip shall be deemed to have forfeited any right to purchase the Ctrip Offered Shares, and the Ctrip Transferor shall be free to sell all, but not less than all, of the Ctrip Offered Shares to the third party purchasers upon terms and conditions (including the purchase price) no more favorable to such third party purchaser than those specified in the Ctrip Transfer Notice, provided that such sale shall be consummated within ninety (90) days after receipt of the Ctrip Transfer Notice by the Company.

 

3.4                               Non-Exercise of Rights.

 

(a)                                 In the event the Transferor does not consummate the sale or disposition of any Offered Shares to one or more third party purchasers within ninety (90) days after receipt of the Transfer Notice by the Company, the rights of the Non-Selling Investors under Section 3.2 shall continue to be applicable, to any subsequent disposition of such Offered Shares by the Transferor until such rights lapse in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

(b)                                 The exercise or non-exercise of the rights of the Non-Selling Investors under this Section 3 to purchase Equity Securities from a Transferor, or participate in the sale of Equity Securities by the Transferor (if applicable) shall not adversely affect their rights to make subsequent purchases from the Transferor of Equity Securities or subsequently participate in sales of Equity Securities by the Transferor (if applicable) hereunder.

 

3.5                               Permitted Transferees. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3, the Company, Ctrip, Crawford (provided that Crawford’s consent shall not be required if a Crawford Default has occurred), GS, Qiming and CDH may decide unanimously in writing on certain permitted transferees of the Equity Securities held by the Founder and any other Common Shareholder (collectively, the “Permitted Transferees” and each, a “Permitted Transferee”) and such sale, transfer or assignment of such Equity Securities shall not be subject to Section 3.1 or 3.2 or 3.3, except as required by applicable Law; provided that each such Permitted Transferee, prior to the completion of such sale, transfer or assignment, shall have executed such documents and taken such other actions as may be necessary for such Permitted Transferee to join in and be bound by this Agreement as a “Common Shareholder” and assume the obligations of its transferring party under this Agreement, including but not limited to Section 3 hereof.

 

32











 

3.6                               Standstill. For the avoidance of doubt, any restrictions in respect of the Transfer of the Series D Preferred Shares under this Agreement shall be cumulative with, but not in lieu of, the restrictions set forth under Section 7.7 of the Series D Share Purchase Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, any restrictions in respect of the Transfer of the Series E Preferred Shares under this Agreement shall be cumulative with, but not in lieu of, the restrictions set forth under Section 7.7 of the Series E Share Purchase Agreement.

 

3.7                               Right of First Offer of Ctrip and Crawford

 

(a)                                 If any Class A Investor, Series A Investor, Series B Investor, Series C Investor or Series E Investor (a “Transferring Investor”) proposes to sell or otherwise transfer, directly or indirectly, any Equity Securities of the Company to any third party in a Private Sale other than (i) an Affiliate of such Transferring Investor or (ii) a Company Competitor, the Transferring Investor shall give a written notice (the “First Offer Notice”) to the Company, Ctrip (so long as Ctrip holds no less than 4.5% of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis and Ctrip is not a Transferring Investor) and Crawford (so long as no Crawford Default has occurred and Crawford holds no less than five percent (5%) of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis) indicating its intention of such transfer, which shall include (i) the date of the First Offer Notice (which shall be the same date as the date of delivery of the First Offer Notice), (ii) a description of the Equity Securities to be transferred (the “ROFO Shares”) specifying the number of the ROFO Shares, (iii) the offer price per share of the ROFO Shares (the “First Offer Price”) and (iv) all other material terms and conditions in connection to such transfer.

 

(b)                                 For a period of ten (10) days after the date on which each of Ctrip and Crawford receives the First Offer Notice (the “First ROFO Period”), each of Ctrip (so long as Ctrip holds no less than 4.5% of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis) and Crawford (so long as no Crawford Default then exists and Crawford holds no less than five percent (5%) of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted basis) shall have the right, by delivering to the Transferring Investor an acceptance notice in writing (the “First ROFO Acceptance Notice”), to purchase all, but not less than all of the ROFO Shares at a purchase price equal to the First Offer Price and upon the same terms and conditions as those set forth in the First Offer Notice, provided that if the sum of the ROFO Shares Ctrip and Crawford wish to purchase under this section exceeds the total number of ROFO Shares, Ctrip and Crawford shall each be assigned a pro rata share of the ROFO Shares for purchase.

 

(c)                                  If either Ctrip or Crawford fails to deliver a First ROFO Acceptance Notice to the Transferring Investor within the First ROFO Period, the Transferring Investor shall have the right, subject to the restrictions set forth in Sections 3.2 and 3.8 hereof (to the extent applicable) and for a period of up to 180 days (the “Solicitation Period”) beginning on the expiration date of the First ROFO Period, to solicit an offer from any third party to purchase all (but not less than all) of the ROFO Shares. If the best bona fide offer the Transferring Investor receives from one or more third parties during the Solicitation Period (the “Best Third Party Offer”) is less favorable to the Transferring Investor in terms of price per share and the other material terms and conditions than the First Offer Price and the other material terms and conditions set forth in the First Offer Notice, and the Transferring Investor intends to accept such Best Third Party Offer, the Transferring Investor shall deliver a written notice (the “Second Offer Notice”) to each of Ctrip and Crawford,

 

33











 

which shall include (i) the date of the Second Offer Notice (which shall be the same date as the date of delivery of the Second Offer Notice), (ii) the offer price per share of the ROFO Shares (the “Second Offer Price”), (iii) a copy of a document signed by the third party setting forth the Second Offer Price, and (iv) all other material terms and conditions, which shall be the same as those set forth in the Best Third Party Offer. If the Best Third Party Offer is no less favorable to the Transferring Investor in terms of price per share or the other material terms and conditions than the First Offer Price or the other material terms and conditions set forth in the First Offer Notice, the Transferring Investor may accept the Best Third Party Offer and proceed with the sale to the third party, subject to the restrictions set forth in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 hereof (to the extent applicable).

 

(d)                                 For a period of ten (10) days after the date on which each of Ctrip and Crawford receives the Second Offer Notice (the “Second ROFO Period”), each of Ctrip (so long as Ctrip holds no less than 4.5% of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis) and Crawford (so long as no Crawford Default then exists and Crawford holds no less than five percent (5%) of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis) shall have the right, by delivering to the Transferring Investor an acceptance notice in writing (the “Second ROFO Acceptance Notice”; together with the First ROFO Acceptance Notice, each an “Acceptance Notice”), to purchase all, but not less than all of the ROFO Shares at a purchase price equal to the Second Offer Price and upon the same terms and conditions as those set forth in the Second Offer Notice, provide that if the sum of the ROFO Shares Ctrip and Crawford wish to purchase under this section exceeds the total number of ROFO Shares, Ctrip and Crawford shall each be assigned a pro rata share of the ROFO Shares for purchase.

 

(e)                                  Each Acceptance Notice shall be irrevocable and upon the timely delivery of any Acceptance Notice there shall constitute a binding agreement between Ctrip and/or Crawford, as applicable, and the Transferring Investor to purchase and sell the ROFO Shares pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the First Offer Notice or the Second Offer Notice (as the case may be). Upon the timely delivery of an Acceptance Notice, the Transferring Investor and Ctrip and/or Crawford shall use their best efforts to consummate, within forty-five (45) days after the date of the First Offer Notice or the Second Offer Notice (as the case may be), the purchase and sale of the ROFO Shares.

 

(f)                                   If either Ctrip or Crawford fails to deliver an Acceptance Notice to the Transferring Investor within the Second ROFO Period, the Transferring Investor may either (i) withdraw its intention to sell the ROFO Shares or (ii) have the right, subject to the restrictions set forth in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 hereof (to the extent applicable) and for a period of up to ninety (90) days beginning on the expiration date of the Second ROFO Period, to sell all (but not less than all) of the ROFO Shares to any third party. If the Transferring Investor fails to conclude a binding agreement for the sale of the ROFO Shares within such 90-day period, the rights of Ctrip and Crawford under this Section 3.7 shall continue to be applicable to any subsequent sale of the ROFO Shares by the Transferring Investor.

 

(g)                                  For the avoidance of doubt, Crawford shall be entitled to the rights sets forth under this Section 3.7 only if no Crawford Default has occurred and Crawford holds no less than five percent (5%) of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis. For the avoidance of doubt, Ctrip shall be entitled to the rights sets forth under this Section 3.7 only if

 

34











 

Ctrip holds no less than four point five percent (4.5%) of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis.

 

3.8                               Transfer by a Transferring Investor in a Block Trade. If any Transferring Investor intends to dispose of all or any of its Equity Securities of the Company through an investment bank or other financial intermediary via a Block Trade after the Qualified IPO, the Transferring Investor shall (a) use its best efforts to require the investment bank or other financial intermediary to agree to abide by the restrictions set forth in the first sentence of Section 3.1(c) (in terms of the prohibition on sales to Company Global Competitors and the restriction on sales to Company Non-Global Competitors), and (b) give a written notice of such intention to the Company which, subject to compliance with applicable laws (including securities laws), shall promptly forward such notice to the other shareholders of the Company (including Crawford so long as no Crawford Default has occurred and Crawford holds no less than five percent (5%) of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis). Subject to compliance with applicable laws (including securities laws), the Transferring Investor shall invite both Ctrip and Crawford to bid in such Block Trade and compete on the same terms and conditions with the other bidders. Each of Ctrip and Crawford shall be entitled to receive a copy of the bidding instructions and any other information which has been or will be provided to the other bidders by the Transferring Investor and/or the Company. To the extent that Ctrip or Crawford proposes to acquire at the highest price among the bidders any of the Equity Securities offered by the Transferring Investor in the Block Trade, the Transferring Investor shall, subject to compliance with applicable laws (including securities laws), sell all such Equity Securities to Ctrip and/or Crawford and other bidders who offer the same price as the price offered by Ctrip and/or Crawford, if any, on pro rata basis in proportion to the amount of the Equity Securities proposed to be acquired by Crawford and such other bidders. For the avoidance of doubt, Crawford shall be entitled to the rights sets forth under this Section 3.8 only if no Crawford Default has occurred and Crawford holds no less than five percent (5%) of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis. For the avoidance of doubt, Ctrip shall be entitled to the rights sets forth under this Section 3.8 only if Ctrip holds no less than four and a half percent (4.5%) of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis. For the avoidance of doubt, any obligations of the Transferring Investor and its investment bank or other financial intermediary under this Section 3.8 shall be subject to compliance with applicable laws (including securities laws) and rules or requirements of relevant regulatory bodies (including without limitation, the SEC or FINRA).

 

3.9                               Sale by a Transferring Investor in a Registered Offering. If any Transferring Investor intends to dispose of all or any of its Equity Securities through a Registered Offering after the Qualified IPO by exercising its rights under Section 2 hereof, (a) the Transferring Investor or the Company, whoever engages the underwriter, shall use its best efforts to require the underwriter to agree to abide by the restrictions set forth in the first sentence of Section 3.1(c) (in terms of the prohibition on sales to Company Global Competitors and the restriction on sales to Company Non-Global Competitors), and (b) the Transferring Investor shall give a written notice of such intention of disposal to the Company which, subject to compliance with applicable laws (including securities laws), shall promptly forward such notice to the other shareholders of the Company (including Crawford so long as no Crawford Default has occurred and Crawford holds no less than five percent (5%) of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis). If requested by either Ctrip or Crawford in writing within ten (10) days following the delivery by

 

35











 

the Company of such notice and subject to compliance with applicable laws (including securities laws), the Transferring Investor shall sell, and in case of a firm-commitment underwritten offering, the Transferring Investor or the Company, whoever engages the underwriter, shall use its best efforts to procure its underwriter(s) and/or bookrunner(s) to sell, to Ctrip and Crawford, at the same price and pursuant to the same terms and conditions of such Registered Offering, such amount of the Equity Securities to be sold in the Registered Offering which shall be no less than the lesser of (A) the amount offered by each of Ctrip and Crawford to buy, and (B) (i) the total number of the Equity Securities to be sold by the Transferring Investor in the Registered Offering multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Equity Securities of the Company owned by each of Ctrip and Crawford immediately prior to the Registered Offering and the denominator of which shall be the total outstanding share capital in the Company, each on a Fully-Diluted Basis. For the avoidance of doubt, Crawford shall be entitled to the rights sets forth under this Section 3.9 only if no Crawford Default has occurred and Crawford holds no less than five percent (5%) of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis. For the avoidance of doubt, Ctrip shall be entitled to the rights sets forth under this Section 3.9 only if Ctrip holds no less than four and a half percent (4.5%) of the Company’s then total outstanding share capital on a Fully-Diluted Basis. For the avoidance of doubt, any obligations of the Transferring Investor, the Company and the underwriters and/or bookrunners under this Section 3.9 shall be subject to compliance with applicable laws (including securities laws) and rules or requirements of relevant regulatory bodies (including without limitation, the SEC or FINRA).

 

3.10                        Limitation of Rights under Section 3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Investor shall not be entitled to exercise any right of first refusal or right of first offer under this Section 3 if such Investor (together with its Affiliates) in aggregate holds more than 30% of the outstanding share capital of the Company, on a Fully-Diluted Basis.

 

4.                                      Preemptive Right.

 

4.1                               General. The Company hereby grants to each Shareholder a right (the “Preemptive Right”) to purchase up to its “pro rata share” (and any overallotment) of any New Securities that the Company may, from time to time, propose to sell or issue to any investors, subject to compliance with applicable laws and the Transaction Documents. Each such Shareholder’s “pro rata share” for purposes of the Preemptive Right under this Section 4 shall be the ratio of (i) the number of Common Shares (calculated on a Fully-Diluted Basis) held by such Shareholder immediately prior to the issuance of the New Securities, to (ii) the total number of Common Shares (calculated on a Fully-Diluted Basis) held by all the Shareholders immediately prior to the issuance of the New Securities.

 

4.2                               Holder Notice. In the event the Company proposes to undertake an issuance of New Securities, it shall first give each of its Shareholders written notice (the “Issuance Notice”) of such intention, describing (i) the type of New Securities to be issued, (ii) the identity of the prospective investor, and (iii) the price and the terms upon which the Company proposes to issue the same. Each Shareholder shall have fifteen (15) days (the “Participation Period”) after the receipt of the Issuance Notice to agree to purchase up to such Shareholder’s pro rata share of the New Securities (as determined in Section 4.1 above) for the price and upon the terms specified in the Issuance Notice by giving written notice to the Company and stating therein the quantity of New Securities to be purchased.

 

36











 

4.3                               Overallotment. If any Shareholder fails to exercise its Preemptive Right to purchase its full pro rata share of the New Securities (each, a “Non-Exercising Holder”, and collectively, the “Non-Exercising Holders”), the Company shall, within five (5) days after the expiration of the Participation Period, deliver written notice specifying the aggregate number of the remaining New Securities that were eligible for purchase by all the Non-Exercising Holders (the “Remaining Securities”) to each Shareholder that has exercised its right to purchase its full pro rata share of the New Securities (each, an “Exercising Holder”, and collectively, the “Exercising Holders”). Each Exercising Holder shall have a right of overallotment, and may exercise an additional right to purchase the Remaining Securities by notifying the Company in writing within ten (10) days after receipt of the notice by the Company pursuant to the prior sentence of this Section 4.3; provided, however, that if the Exercising Holders desire to purchase in aggregate more than the number of the Remaining Securities, then the Remaining Securities will be allocated to the extent necessary among the Exercising Holders in accordance with their relative pro rata shares. For purposes of clarification, if there are still New Securities left unpurchased after every Exercising Holder has had a chance to exercise its right of overallotment as outlined in Section 4.3 herein, the Company shall, within five (5) days after the expiration of the ten (10) days outlined in the prior sentence, deliver a written notice to Ctrip specifying the aggregate number of the remaining unpurchased New Securities, and Ctrip shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase all such unpurchased New Securities by notifying the Company in writing within ten (10) days after receipt of the notice by the Company pursuant to this sentence.

 

4.4                               Sales by the Company. If the Shareholders fail to exercise their right to purchase the Remaining Securities within the ten (10) day period as described in Section 4.3 above, for a period of thirty (30) days following the expiration of such ten (10) day period, the Company may sell any New Securities with respect to which the Shareholders’ rights under this Section 4 were not exercised, to the purchasers identified in the Issuance Notice and at a price and upon terms not more favorable to the purchasers thereof than specified in the Issuance Notice. In the event the Company has not sold such New Securities within such thirty (30) day period, the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any New Securities, without first again offering such securities to its Shareholders in the manner provided in this Section 4.

 

4.5                               Termination of Preemptive Rights. The Preemptive Rights in this Section 4 shall terminate upon the closing of a Qualified IPO.

 

5.                                      Information and Inspection Rights; US Tax Matters.

The members of the Company Group shall permit any Investor, at the Investor’s own expense, to visit and inspect, during normal business hours following reasonable notice by the Investor to the Company (which shall be no less than three (3) days unless otherwise agreed by the Company), any of the properties of any member of the Company Group, and examine the books of account and records of any member of the Company Group, and discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of any member of the Company Group with the directors, officers, management employees, accountants, legal counsel and investment bankers of such member, all at such reasonable times as may be requested in writing by the Investor; provided, that such Investor (i) is not a Company Competitor; (ii) doesn’t hold any direct or indirect ownership interest in or have any business relationship with any Company Competitor; and (iii) agrees to keep confidential any information so obtained in accordance with Section 13 hereof.

(a)                                 The Company will not take any action inconsistent with the treatment of the Company as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and will not elect to be treated as an entity other than a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes unless agreed upon by Crawford (so long as no Crawford Default has occurred and Crawford continues to hold at least 5% of the outstanding share capital of the Company on a Fully-Diluted Basis) and GS. Upon request by Crawford (so long as no Crawford Default has occurred and Crawford continues to hold at least 5% of the outstanding share capital of the Company on a Fully-Diluted Basis) or GS that the Company or one or more of its Subsidiaries should elect to be classified as partnerships or disregarded entities for United States federal income tax purposes (the “Partnership Election”) and subject to the unanimous consent of the other shareholders that are U.S. Persons (as defined below), the Company shall make, or shall cause to be made, the Partnership Election by filing, or by causing to be filed, Internal Revenue Service Form 8832 (or any successor form) provided that such election is in compliance with all applicable laws effective the day before Closing, and the

 

39











 

Company shall not permit the Partnership Election to be terminated or revoked without the written approval from Crawford (so long as no Crawford Default has occurred and Crawford continues to hold at least 5% of the outstanding share capital of the Company on a Fully-Diluted Basis), GS and other shareholders that are U.S. Persons.

 

(b)                                 No later than two (2) months following the end of the Company’s taxable year, the Company shall determine, in consultation with an Auditing Firm, whether any member of the Company Group was a “passive foreign investment company” (a “PFIC”) within the meaning of section 1297 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) in such taxable year. If it is determined that a member of the Company Group was a PFIC in such taxable year, the Company shall promptly notify each U.S. Holder of such determination. The Company agrees to make available to each U.S. Holder upon request, the books and records of the Company Group (and, as relevant, each member thereof), and to provide information to each U.S. Holder necessary for such U.S. Holder to determine whether any member of the Company Group was a PFIC in a taxable year. Upon determination by the Company, any U.S. Holder or any taxing authority that any member of the Company Group was a PFIC in a taxable year, the Company will provide each U.S. Holder with all information reasonably available to the Company Group to permit such U.S. Holder to (i) accurately prepare all tax returns and comply with any reporting requirements in connection with such determination and (ii) make any election (including, without limitation, a “qualified electing fund” election under section 1295 of the Code), with respect to the relevant member of the Company Group, and comply with any reporting or other requirements incident to such election. If a determination is made that a member of the Company Group is a PFIC for a particular year, then for such year and for each year thereafter, the Company shall or shall cause such member to provide to each U.S. Holder with a completed “PFIC Annual Information Statement” substantially in the form as set out in the schedule headed “PFIC Annual Information Statement” as required by Treasury Regulation section 1.1295-1(g).

 

(c)                                  Each of Qiming and CDH represents (i) that it is not a “United States person” (“U.S. Person”) as defined in section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, and (ii) that none of its shareholders that are U.S. Persons indirectly owns more than 10% of the Company. To the best of its knowledge, GS represents that (i) neither of the Persons that comprise GS is a U.S. Person, and (ii) that no more than 70% of the value of the GS Persons (on an aggregate basis) is owned, directly, indirectly or constructively, by U.S. Persons. The representation in sub-clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence is subject to, and qualified by, the methodology and assumptions set forth in Schedule C. Qiming, CDH, and GS shall provide prompt written notice to the Company of any subsequent change to the foregoing representations. No later than two (2) months following the end of the Company’s taxable year, the Company shall provide the following information to each U.S. Holder: (a) the Company’s capitalization table as of the end of the last day of such taxable year and (b) a report regarding the Company’s status as a “controlled foreign corporation” (“CFC”) as defined in the Code, if any. In the event any member of the Company Group is a CFC, the Company shall (x) furnish to each U.S. Holder upon its reasonable request, on a timely basis, all information necessary to satisfy the U.S. income tax return filing requirements of such U.S. Holder and (y) use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid generating for any taxable year in which any member of the Company Group is a CFC, income that would be includible in the income of any U.S. Holder under section 951 of the Code. Upon written request of a U.S. Holder from time to time, subject to obtaining the consent of its shareholders to release such information (if necessary), the Company will promptly provide in writing such information in

 

40









 

its possession concerning its shareholders and, to the Company’s actual knowledge, the direct and indirect interest holders in each shareholder sufficient for such U.S. Holder to determine whether the Company is a CFC.

 

(d)                                 Each member of the Company Group will comply with all record-keeping, reporting, and other requests necessary for such member to allow each U.S. Holder to comply with any applicable U.S. federal income tax Law.

 

(e)                                  The cost incurred by any member of the Company Group in providing the information that it is required to provide, or is required to cause to be provided, and the cost incurred by any member of the Company Group in taking the action, or causing the action to be taken as described in this Section 5 shall be borne by the Company Group.

All parties shall take such steps as are necessary to give effect and force to any orders of the Principal Tribunal.

 

(iii)                               If the Principal Tribunal makes an order for consolidation, it: (1) shall thereafter, to the exclusion of other arbitral tribunals, have jurisdiction to resolve all disputes forming part of the consolidation order; (2) shall order that notice of the consolidation order and its effect be given immediately to any arbitrators already appointed in relation to the disputes that were consolidated under the consolidation order; and (3) may also give such directions as it considers appropriate (i) to give effect to the consolidation and make provision for any costs which may result from it (including costs in any arbitration rendered functus officio under this Section 14.2); and (ii) to ensure the proper organization of the arbitration proceedings and that all the issues between the parties are properly formulated and resolved.

Such cessation is without prejudice to (1) the validity of any acts done or orders made by such arbitrators before termination, (2) such arbitrators’ entitlement to be paid their proper fees and disbursements and (3) the date when any claim or defense was raised for the purpose of applying any limitation period or any like rule or provision.

The exercise or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy will neither constitute the exclusive election thereof nor the waiver of any other right, power or remedy available to such Party.

 

14.12     No Waiver. Failure to insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms, covenants, or conditions hereof will not be deemed a waiver of such term, covenant, or condition, nor will any waiver or relinquishment of, or failure to insist upon strict compliance with, any right, power or remedy power hereunder at any one or more times be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of such right, power or remedy at any other time or times.

14.15     Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any Party under this Agreement, upon any breach or default of any other Party under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such non-breaching or non-defaulting Party nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any party of any breach or default under this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any party 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.

SCHEDULE C

 

The Persons that comprise GS are wholly indirectly-owned by four Persons. Two of these Persons are partnerships formed under the laws of a state of the United States (the “US Funds”). The other two Persons are partnerships formed outside the US (the “non-US Funds”). Each Party acknowledges that neither the Code nor the U.S. Department of Treasury regulations thereunder clearly specify the appropriate method for computing the amount and/or value of stock owned, or treated as owned for US federal income tax purposes, by “United States shareholders” within the meaning of section 951(b) of the Code. In view of this uncertainty, each Party acknowledges and agrees that the value of GS owned, directly or indirectly by United States Persons has been determined as follows:

 

(1)     The percentage of GS owned directly or indirectly by the US Funds has been treated as owned by United States Persons.

 

(2)     A percentage of GS owned directly or indirectly by the non-US Funds has been treated as owned by United States Persons in an amount equal the product of (i) the percentage of GS owned by the non-US Funds and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the total capital commitments to the non-US Funds from United States Persons and the denominator of which is the total capital commitments to the non-US Funds. For purposes of determining whether any partner in a non-US Fund is itself a “United States person,” GS has relied on the Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN, W-8IMY, W-8ECI, W-8EXP and W-9, as applicable, submitted by the partners in the non-US Funds.

 

(3)     A percentage of GS owned directly or indirectly by the non-US Funds has been treated as owned by United States Persons in an amount equal to the product of (i) the maximum profit or incentive allocation payable, if any, with respect to a capital commitment to the non-US Funds and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the total capital commitments to the non-US Funds potentially subject to promote (if any) and the denominator of which is the total capital commitments to the non-US Funds.
