Amended and Restated Exclusive Option Agreement

 

This Amended and Restated Exclusive Option Agreement (this “Agreement”) is executed by and among the following Parties as of February 4, 2018 in Beijing, the People’s Republic of China (“China” or the “PRC”):

 

Party A:                        Yougu (Shanghai) Information Technology Co., Ltd., a wholly foreign-owned enterprise, organized and existing under the laws of the PRC, with its address at Room 211, Floor 2, Building No. 3, No. 177, Meisheng Road, Free Trade Zone, Shanghai, China;

 

Party B:                        Beijing Min Si Lian Hua Investment Management Co., Ltd., a limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of the PRC, with its address at Room No. 5704, 5th Floor, Shen Chang Plaza, No. 51 Zhi Chun Road, Haidian District, Beijing; and

 

Party C:                        Youxin Yishouche (Beijing) Information Technology Co., Ltd., a limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of the PRC, with its address at Floor 4, Building No. 11, Guandongdian, Chaoyang District, Beijing, China (No. 1064, Hujialou Central Business Area).

 

In this Agreement, Party A, Party B, and Party C shall each be referred to as a “Party” respectively, and they shall be collectively referred to as the “Parties.”

 

Whereas:

 

1.                  Party B is a shareholder of Party C and as of the date hereof holds 0.0001% of the equity interests of Party C, representing RMB1 in the registered capital of Party C.

 

2.                  Party A, Party B and Party C have executed an Exclusive Option Agreement on April 9, 2016 (the “Original Exclusive Option Agreement”). In order to further clarify the Parties’ rights and obligations, the Parties agree to amend certain provisions of the Original Exclusive Option Agreement by executing this Agreement, which shall supersede and replace the Original Exclusive Option Agreement upon the effective date of this Agreement.

 

Now therefore, upon mutual discussions and negotiations, the Parties have now reached the following agreement:

 

1.                  Granting of Equity Interest Purchase Option and Asset Purchase Option

 

1.1       Equity Interest Purchase Option

 

In consideration of the payment of RMB10 by Party A, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged by Party B, Party B hereby irrevocably grants Party A an irrevocable and exclusive right to purchase, or designate one or more persons (each, a “Designee”) to purchase the equity interests in Party C then held by Party B at once or at multiple times at any time in part or in whole at Party A’s sole and absolute discretion to the extent  permitted by Chinese laws and at the price described in Section 1.3 herein (such right being the “Equity Interest Purchase Option”).  Except for Party A and the Designee(s), no other person shall be entitled to the Equity Interest Purchase Option or other rights with respect to the equity interests of Party B.  Party C hereby agrees to the grant by Party B of the Equity Interest Purchase Option to Party A.  The term “person” as used herein shall refer to individuals, corporations, partnerships, partners, enterprises, trusts, or non-corporate organizations.

 

1

 

1.2       Steps for Exercise of the Equity Interest Purchase Option

 

Subject to the provisions of the laws and regulations of China, Party A may exercise the Equity Interest Purchase Option by issuing a written notice to Party B (the “Equity Interest Purchase Option Notice”), specifying: (a) Party A’s or the Designee’s decision to exercise the Equity Interest Purchase Option; (b) the portion of equity interests to be purchased by Party A or the Designee from Party B (the “Optioned Interests”); and (c) the date for purchasing the Optioned Interests or the date for transfer of the Optioned Interests.

 

1.3       Equity Interest Purchase Price

 

The purchase price of the Optioned Interests (the “Base Price”) shall be RMB 10.  If PRC law requires a minimum price higher than the Base Price when Party A exercises the Equity Interest Purchase Option, the minimum price regulated by PRC law shall be the purchase price (collectively, the “Equity Interest Purchase Price”). Subject to the fulfillment in full of Section 6 of this Agreement by Party C, Party B shall transfer the Equity Interest Purchase Price and any other proceeds obtained by Party B from such transfer of the Optioned Interest to Party A or the Designee at nil consideration immediately after receiving the Equity Interest Purchase Price and such proceeds for the transfer of the Optioned Interest. For avoidance of doubt, the Equity Interest Purchase Price transferred to Party A or the Designee shall deduct (i) such portion equivalent to the Party B’s capital contribution of its own funds (which shall not include the amount of the loan that Party A lent to Party B for the purpose of increasing the registered capital of Party C) to Party C and (ii) any and all transfer and registration taxes, expenses, and fees paid by Party B in connection with the preparation and execution of this Agreement and the Transfer Contracts (as defined below), as well as the consummation of the transactions contemplated under this Agreement and the Transfer Contracts.

 

1.4       Transfer of Optioned Interests

 

For each exercise of the Equity Interest Purchase Option:

 

2

 

1.4.1                    Party C shall promptly convene a shareholders’ meeting, at which a resolution shall be adopted approving Party B’s transfer of the Optioned Interests to Party A and/or the Designee(s);

 

1.4.2                    Party C shall obtain written statements from the other shareholders of Party C giving consent to the transfer of the equity interest to Party A and/or the Designee(s) and waiving any right of first refusal related thereto;

 

1.4.3                    Party B shall execute an equity interest transfer contract with respect to each transfer with Party A and/or each Designee (whichever is applicable), in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Equity Interest Purchase Option Notice regarding the Optioned Interests;

 

1.4.4                    The relevant Parties shall execute all other necessary contracts, agreements, or documents, obtain all necessary government licenses and permits, and take all necessary actions to transfer the valid ownership of the Optioned Interests to Party A and/or the Designee(s), unencumbered by any security interests, and cause Party A and/or the Designee(s) to become the registered owner(s) of the Optioned Interests.  For the purpose of this Section and this Agreement, “security interests” shall include securities, mortgages, third party’s rights or interests, any stock options, acquisition right, right of first refusal, right to offset, ownership retention, or other security arrangements, but shall be deemed to exclude any security interest created by this Agreement, Party B’s Equity Interest Pledge Agreement and Party B’s Power of Attorney.  “Party B’s Equity Interest Pledge Agreement” as used in this Agreement shall refer to the Amended and Restated Equity Interest Pledge Agreement executed by and among Party A, Party B and Party C on [*], 2018 and any modifications, amendments, and restatements thereto. “Party B’s Power of Attorney” as used in this Agreement shall refer to the Power of Attorney executed by Party B on [*], 2018 granting Party A with a power of attorney and any modifications, amendments, and restatements thereto.

 

1.5       Asset Purchase Option

 

Party C hereby grants to Party A an irrevocable and exclusive option to have Party A or its Designee to purchase from Party C, at Party A’s sole discretion, at any time and in accordance with the procedures decided by Party A in its sole discretion, any or all of the assets of Party C, to the extent permitted under PRC law, and at the lowest purchase price permitted by PRC law.  The Parties shall then enter into a separate assets transfer agreement, specifying the terms and conditions of the transfer of the assets.
