 Exhibit 10.14 
 FORM OF INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT 
 THIS
INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of                  , 2009, by and between 7 DAYS GROUP HOLDINGS LIMITED, an exempted
company duly incorporated and validly existing under the Law of the Cayman Islands (the “Company”), and              (the “Indemnitee”), a
director of the Company. 
 WHEREAS, the Indemnitee has agreed to serve as a director of the Company and in such capacity will
render valuable services to the Company; and 
 WHEREAS, in order to induce and encourage highly experienced and capable persons
such as the Indemnitee to serve as directors of the Company, the Board of Directors has determined that this Agreement is not only reasonable and prudent, but necessary to promote and ensure the best interests of the Company and its shareholders;

 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual agreements hereinafter set forth, and other good and valuable
consideration, including, without limitation, the service of the Indemnitee, the receipt of which hereby is acknowledged, and in order to induce the Indemnitee to serve as a director of the Company, the Company and the Indemnitee hereby agree as
follows: 
 1. Definitions. As used in this Agreement: 
 (a) “Board of Directors” shall mean the board of directors of the Company. 
 (b) “Change in Control” shall mean a change in control of the Company of a nature that would be required to
be reported in response to Item 6(e) of Schedule 14A of Regulation 14A (or in response to any similar item on any similar or successor schedule or form) promulgated under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the
rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, the “Act”), whether or not the Company is then subject to such reporting requirement; provided, however, that, without limitation, such a Change in Control shall be
deemed to have occurred (irrespective of the applicability of the initial clause of this definition) if (i) any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Act, but excluding any trustee or other fiduciary
holding securities pursuant to an employee benefit or welfare plan or employee share plan of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, or any entity organized, appointed, established or holding securities of the Company with voting power for or
pursuant to the terms of any such plan) is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 20% or more of the combined voting power of the
Company’s then outstanding securities without the prior approval of at least two-thirds of the Continuing Directors (as defined below) in office immediately prior to such person’s attaining such interest; (ii) the Company is a party
to a merger, consolidation, scheme of arrangement, sale of assets or other reorganization, or a proxy contest, as a consequence of which Continuing Directors in office immediately prior to such transaction or event constitute less than a majority of
the Board of Directors of the Company (or any successor entity) thereafter; or (iii) during any period of two (2) consecutive years, individuals who at the beginning of such period constituted the Board of Directors of the Company
(including for this purpose any new director whose election or

  

 - 1 - 

 
nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then still in office who were directors at the beginning of such period)
(such directors being referred to herein as “Continuing Directors”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board of Directors of the Company. 
 (c) “Disinterested Director” with respect to any request by the Indemnitee for indemnification or advancement
of expenses hereunder shall mean a director of the Company who neither is nor was a party to the Proceeding (as defined below) in respect of which indemnification or advancement is being sought by the Indemnitee. 
 (d) The term “Expenses” shall mean, without limitation, expenses of Proceedings, including attorneys’
fees, disbursements and retainers, accounting and witness fees, expenses related to the preparation or service as a witness, travel and deposition costs, expenses of investigations, judicial or administrative proceedings and appeals, amounts paid in
settlement of a Proceeding by or on behalf of the Indemnitee, costs of attachment or similar bonds, any expenses of attempting to establish or establishing a right to indemnification or advancement of expenses, under this Agreement, the
Company’s Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association as currently in effect (the “Articles”), applicable law or otherwise, and reasonable compensation for time spent by the Indemnitee in connection with the
investigation, defense or appeal of a Proceeding or action for indemnification for which the Indemnitee is not otherwise compensated by the Company or any third party. The term “Expenses” shall not include the amount of judgments, fines,
interest or penalties, or excise taxes assessed with respect to any employee benefit or welfare plan, which are actually levied against or sustained by the Indemnitee to the extent sustained after final adjudication. 
 (e) The term “Independent Legal Counsel” shall mean any firm of attorneys reasonably selected by the Board of
Directors of the Company, so long as such firm has not represented the Company, the Company’s subsidiaries or affiliates, the Indemnitee, any entity controlled by the Indemnitee, or any party adverse to the Company, within the preceding five
(5) years. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “Independent Legal Counsel” shall not include any person who, under applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing, would have a conflict of interest in representing
either the Company or the Indemnitee in an action to determine the Indemnitee’s right to indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Agreement, the Company’s Articles, applicable law or otherwise. 
 (f) The term “Proceeding” shall mean any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, arbitration,
alternate dispute resolution mechanism, or any other proceeding (including, without limitation, an appeal therefrom), formal or informal, whether brought in the name of the Company or otherwise, whether of a civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative nature, and whether by, in or involving a court or an administrative, other governmental or private entity or body (including, without limitation, an investigation by the Company or its Board of Directors), by reason of (i) the
fact that the Indemnitee is or was a director of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as an agent of another enterprise, whether or not the Indemnitee is serving in such capacity at the time any liability or expense is
incurred for which indemnification or reimbursement is to be provided under this Agreement, (ii) any actual or alleged act or omission or neglect or breach of duty, including, without limitation,

  

 - 2 - 

 
any actual or alleged error or misstatement or misleading statement, which the Indemnitee commits or suffers while acting in any such capacity, or (iii) the Indemnitee attempting to
establish or establishing a right to indemnification or advancement of expenses pursuant to this Agreement, the Company’s Articles, applicable law or otherwise. 
 (g) The phrase “serving at the request of the Company as an agent of another enterprise” or any similar terminology shall mean, unless the context otherwise requires,
serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust, employee benefit or welfare plan or other enterprise, foreign or domestic. The
phrase “serving at the request of the Company” shall include, without limitation, any service as a director of the Company which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director with respect to the Company or any of the
Company’s subsidiaries, affiliates, employee benefit or welfare plans, such plan’s participants or beneficiaries or any other enterprise, foreign or domestic. In the event that the Indemnitee shall be a director, officer, employee or agent
of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust, employee benefit or welfare plan or other enterprise, foreign or domestic, 50% or more of the ordinary shares, combined voting power or total equity interest of
which is owned by the Company or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof, then it shall be presumed conclusively that the Indemnitee is so acting at the request of the Company. 
 2. Services by the Indemnitee. The Indemnitee agrees to serve as a director of the Company under the terms of
the Indemnitee’s agreement with the Company for so long as the Indemnitee is duly elected and qualified, appointed or until such time as the Indemnitee tenders a resignation in writing or is removed as a director; provided, however, that the
Indemnitee may at any time and for any reason resign from such position (subject to any other contractual obligation or other obligation imposed by operation of law). 
 3. Proceeding Other Than a Proceeding By or In the Right of the Company. The Company shall indemnify the
Indemnitee if the Indemnitee is a party to or threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any Proceeding (other than a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company), by reason of the fact that the Indemnitee is or was a director of
the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as an agent of another enterprise, against all Expenses, judgments, fines, interest or penalties, and excise taxes assessed with respect to any employee benefit or welfare plan, which
are actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with such a Proceeding, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law; provided, however, that any settlement of a Proceeding must be approved in advance in writing by the
Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld). 
 4. Proceedings By or In the Right of the
Company. The Company shall indemnify the Indemnitee if the Indemnitee is a party to or threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason
of the fact that the Indemnitee is or was a director of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as an agent

  

 - 3 - 

 
of another enterprise, against all Expenses, judgments, fines, interest or penalties, and excise taxes assessed with respect to any employee benefit or welfare plan, which are actually and
reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with such a Proceeding, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. 
 5. Indemnification for Costs, Charges and Expenses of Witness or Successful Party. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (except as set forth in subparagraph 9(a) hereof),
and without a requirement for determination as required by Paragraph 8 hereof, to the extent that the Indemnitee (a) has prepared to serve or has served as a witness in any Proceeding in any way relating to (i) the Company or any of the
Company’s subsidiaries, affiliates, employee benefit or welfare plans or such plan’s participants or beneficiaries or (ii) anything done or not done by the Indemnitee as a director of the Company or in connection with serving at the
request of the Company as an agent of another enterprise, or (b) has been successful, in whole or in part, in defense of any Proceeding or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, on the merits or otherwise, including the dismissal of
a Proceeding without prejudice or the settlement of a Proceeding without an admission of liability, the Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in connection therewith to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law. 
 6. Partial Indemnification. If the Indemnitee is entitled
under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for a portion of the Expenses, judgments, fines, interest or penalties, or excise taxes assessed with respect to any employee benefit or welfare plan, which are actually and
reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in the investigation, defense, appeal or settlement of any Proceeding, but not, however, for the total amount of the Indemnitee’s Expenses, judgments, fines, interest or penalties, or excise taxes assessed
with respect to any employee benefit or welfare plan, then the Company shall nevertheless indemnify the Indemnitee for the portion of such Expenses, judgments, fines, interest penalties or excise taxes to which the Indemnitee is entitled.

 7. Advancement of Expenses. The Expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in any Proceeding shall be
paid promptly by the Company in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding at the written request of the Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law; provided, however, that the Indemnitee shall set forth in such request
reasonable evidence that such Expenses have been incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with such Proceeding, a statement that such Expenses do not relate to any matter described in subparagraph 9(a) of this Agreement, and an undertaking in
writing to repay any advances if it is ultimately determined as provided in subparagraph 8(b) of this Agreement that the Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement.

 8. Indemnification Procedure; Determination of Right to
Indemnification. 
 (a) Promptly after receipt by the Indemnitee of notice of the commencement of any Proceeding,
the Indemnitee shall, if a claim for indemnification or advancement of Expenses in respect thereof is to be made against the Company under this Agreement, notify the Company of the commencement thereof in writing. The omission to so notify the
Company will not relieve the Company from any liability which the Company may have to the Indemnitee under this Agreement unless the Company shall have lost significant substantive or procedural rights with respect to the defense of any Proceeding
as a result of such omission to so notify. 
 (b) The Indemnitee shall be conclusively presumed to have met the relevant
standards of conduct, if any, as defined by applicable law, for indemnification pursuant to this Agreement and shall be absolutely entitled to such indemnification, unless a determination by clear and convincing evidence is made that the Indemnitee
has not met such standards by (i) the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum thereof consisting of Disinterested Directors, (ii) the shareholders of the Company by majority vote of a quorum thereof consisting of shareholders who
are not parties to the Proceeding due to which a claim for indemnification is made under this Agreement, (iii) Independent Legal Counsel as set forth in a written opinion (it being understood that such Independent Legal Counsel shall make such
determination only if the quorum of Disinterested Directors referred to in clause (i) of this subparagraph 8(b) is not obtainable or if the Board of Directors of the Company by a majority vote of a quorum thereof consisting of Disinterested
Directors so directs), or (iv) a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, however, that if a Change of Control shall have occurred and the Indemnitee so requests in writing, such determination shall be made only by a court of competent
jurisdiction. 
 (c) If a claim for indemnification or advancement of Expenses under this Agreement is not paid by the
Company within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Company of written notice thereof, the rights provided by this Agreement shall be enforceable by the Indemnitee in any court of competent jurisdiction. Such judicial proceeding shall be made
de novo. The burden of proving by clear and convincing evidence that indemnification or advances are not appropriate shall be on the Company. Neither the failure of the directors or shareholders of the Company or Independent Legal Counsel to have
made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification or advancement of Expenses is proper in the circumstances because the Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, if any, nor an actual determination by
the directors or shareholders of the Company or Independent Legal Counsel that the Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct shall be a defense to an action by the Indemnitee or create a presumption for the purpose of such an action
that the Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct. The termination of any Proceeding by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself (i) create a
presumption that the Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the Company and/or its shareholders, and, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that the Indemnitee had
reasonable

  

 - 5 - 

 
cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful or (ii) otherwise adversely affect the rights of the Indemnitee to indemnification or advancement of Expenses under this Agreement, except as
may be provided herein. The Company further agrees to stipulate in any such judicial proceeding that the Company is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement and is precluded from making any assertion to the contrary. 
 (d) If a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that the Indemnitee is entitled to any indemnification or advancement of
Expenses hereunder, the Company shall pay all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with such adjudication (including, but not limited to, any appellate proceedings). The Indemnitee’s Expenses incurred in
connection with any Proceeding concerning the Indemnitee’s right to indemnification or advancement of Expenses in whole or in part pursuant to this Agreement shall also be indemnified by the Company, regardless of the outcome of such a
Proceeding, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and the Company’s Articles. 
 (e) With respect to any
Proceeding for which indemnification or advancement of Expenses is requested, the Company will be entitled to participate therein at its own expense and, except as otherwise provided below, to the extent that it may wish, the Company may assume the
defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee. After notice from the Company to the Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of a Proceeding, the Company will not be liable to the Indemnitee under this Agreement for
any Expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense thereof, other than as provided below. The Company shall not settle any Proceeding in any manner which would impose any penalty or limitation on the Indemnitee
without the Indemnitee’s written consent. The Indemnitee shall have the right to employ his own counsel in any Proceeding, but the fees and expenses of such counsel incurred after notice from the Company of its assumption of the defense of the
Proceeding shall be at the expense of the Indemnitee, unless (i) the employment of counsel by the Indemnitee has been authorized by the Company, (ii) the Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest
between the Company and the Indemnitee in the conduct of the defense of a Proceeding, or (iii) the Company shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of a proceeding, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of the
Indemnitee’s counsel shall be advanced by the Company. The Company shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Proceeding brought by or on behalf of the Company or as to which the Indemnitee has reasonably concluded that there may be a
conflict of interest between the Company and the Indemnitee. 
 9. Limitations on Indemnification.
No payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be made by the Company: 
 (a) To indemnify or advance funds to the
Indemnitee for Expenses with respect to (i) Proceedings initiated or brought voluntarily by the Indemnitee and not by way of defense, except with respect to Proceedings brought to establish or enforce a right to indemnification under this
Agreement or any other statute or law or otherwise as required under applicable law or (ii) Expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with preparing to serve or serving, prior to a Change in Control, as a witness in cooperation with any
party or entity who or which has threatened or commenced any action or proceeding against the Company, or any

  

 - 6 - 

 
director, officer, employee, trustee, agent, representative, subsidiary, parent corporation or affiliate of the Company, but such indemnification or advancement of Expenses in each such case may
be provided by the Company if the Board of Directors finds it to be appropriate; 
 (b) To indemnify the Indemnitee for
any Expenses, judgments, fines, interest or penalties, or excise taxes assessed with respect to any employee benefit or welfare plan, and sustained in any Proceeding for which payment is actually made to the Indemnitee under a valid and collectible
insurance policy, except in respect of any excess beyond the amount of payment under such insurance; 
 (c) To indemnify
the Indemnitee for any Expenses, judgments, fines, expenses or penalties sustained in any Proceeding for an accounting of profits made from the purchase or sale by the Indemnitee of securities of the Company pursuant to the provisions of
Section 16(b) of the Act or similar provisions of any foreign or United States federal, state or local statute or regulation; 
 (d) To indemnify the Indemnitee for any Expenses, judgments, fines, interest or penalties, or excise taxes assessed with respect to any employee benefit or welfare plan, for which the Indemnitee is indemnified by the Company
otherwise than pursuant to this Agreement; 
 (e) To indemnify the Indemnitee for any Expenses (including without
limitation any Expenses relating to a Proceeding attempting to enforce this Agreement), judgments, fines, interest or penalties, or excise taxes assessed with respect to any employee benefit or welfare plan, on account of the Indemnitee’s
conduct if such conduct shall be finally adjudged to have been knowingly fraudulent, deliberately dishonest or willful misconduct, including, without limitation, breach of the duty of loyalty; or 
 (f) If a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines that any indemnification hereunder is unlawful. 
 10. Contribution in the Event of Joint Liability.  
 (a) To the fullest extent not prohibited by (and not merely to the extent affirmatively permitted by) law, if the indemnification rights
provided for in this Agreement are unavailable to the Indemnitee in whole or in part for any reason whatsoever, in respect of any Proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with the Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such Proceeding), the
Company, in lieu of indemnifying the Indemnitee, shall pay, in the first instance, the entire amount incurred by the Indemnitee, whether for judgments, liabilities, fines, penalties, amounts paid or to be paid in settlement and/or for Expenses,
without requiring the Indemnitee to contribute to such payment, and the Company hereby waives and relinquishes any right of contribution it may have at any time against the Indemnitee. 
 (b) The Company shall not enter into any settlement of any Proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with the Indemnitee (or would
be if joined in such Proceeding) unless such settlement provides for a full and final release of all claims asserted against the Indemnitee. 
  

 - 7 - 

 (c) The Company hereby agrees to fully indemnify, hold harmless and exonerate the Indemnitee
from any claims for contribution which may be brought by officers, directors or employees of the Company (other than the Indemnitee) who may be jointly liable with the Indemnitee. 
 11. Continuation of Indemnification. All agreements and obligations of the Company contained herein shall
continue during the period that the Indemnitee is a director of the Company (or is or was serving at the request of the Company as an agent of another enterprise, foreign or domestic) and shall continue thereafter so long as the Indemnitee shall be
subject to any possible Proceeding by reason of the fact that the Indemnitee was a director of the Company or serving in any other capacity referred to in this Paragraph 11. 
 12. Indemnification Hereunder Not Exclusive. The indemnification provided by this Agreement shall not be
deemed to be exclusive of any other rights to which the Indemnitee may be entitled under the Company’s Articles, any agreement, vote of shareholders or vote of Disinterested Directors, provisions of applicable law, or otherwise, both as to
action or omission in the Indemnitee’s official capacity and as to action or omission in another capacity on behalf of the Company while holding such office. 
 13. Successors and Assigns. 
 (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the Indemnitee and the Indemnitee’s heirs, executors, administrators and assigns, whether or not the Indemnitee has
ceased to be a director, and the Company and its successors and assigns. Upon the sale of all or substantially all of the business, assets or share capital of the Company to, or upon the merger of the Company into or with, any corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other person, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon both the Indemnitee and such purchaser or successor person. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement may not be assigned by either
party without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. 
 (b) If the Indemnitee is deceased and is entitled
to indemnification under any provision of this Agreement, the Company shall indemnify the Indemnitee’s estate and the Indemnitee’s spouse, heirs, executors, administrators and assigns against, and the Company shall, and does hereby agree
to assume, any and all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by or for the Indemnitee or the Indemnitee’s estate, in connection with the investigation, defense, appeal or settlement of any Proceeding. Further, when requested in writing by
the spouse of the Indemnitee, and/or the Indemnitee’s heirs, executors, administrators and assigns, the Company shall provide appropriate evidence of the Company’s agreement set out herein to indemnify the Indemnitee against and to itself
assume such Expenses. 
 14. Subrogation. In the event of payment under this Agreement, the
Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Indemnitee, who shall execute all documents required and shall do all acts that may be necessary to secure such rights and to enable the Company
effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights. 
  

 - 8 - 

 15. Severability. Each and every paragraph, sentence, term and
provision of this Agreement is separate and distinct so that if any paragraph, sentence, term or provision thereof shall be held to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable for any reason, such invalidity, unlawfulness or unenforceability shall not
affect the validity, unlawfulness or enforceability of any other paragraph, sentence, term or provision hereof. To the extent required, any paragraph, sentence, term or provision of this Agreement may be modified by a court of competent jurisdiction
to preserve its validity and to provide the Indemnitee with the broadest possible indemnification permitted under applicable law. The Company’s inability, pursuant to a court order or decision, to perform its obligations under this Agreement
shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement. 
 16. Savings Clause. If this Agreement or any
paragraph, sentence, term or provision hereof is invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify the Indemnitee as to any Expenses, judgments, fines, interest or penalties, or excise taxes
assessed with respect to any employee benefit or welfare plan, which are incurred with respect to any Proceeding to the fullest extent permitted by any (a) applicable paragraph, sentence, term or provision of this Agreement that has not been
invalidated or (b) applicable law. 
 17. Interpretation; Governing Law. This Agreement shall
be construed as a whole and in accordance with its fair meaning and any ambiguities shall not be construed for or against either party. Headings are for convenience only and shall not be used in construing meaning. This Agreement shall be governed
and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof. 
 18. Amendments. No amendment, waiver, modification, termination or cancellation of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.
The indemnification rights afforded to the Indemnitee hereby are contract rights and may not be diminished, eliminated or otherwise affected by amendments to the Company’s Articles, or by other agreements, including directors’ and
officers’ liability insurance policies, of the Company. 
 19. Counterparts. This Agreement
may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other. 
 20. Notices. Any notice required to be given under this Agreement shall be directed to 7 Days Group Holdings
Limited, 10F, 705 GuangzhouDaDaoNan Road, Guangzhou, Guangdong, 510290, People’s Republic of China, Attention: Legal Department, and to the Indemnitee at

 FORM OF EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
 THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into this
                    , 20     (the “Effective Date”), by and between 7 DAYS GROUP HOLDINGS LIMITED, a
company incorporated and existing under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Company” and, together with all of its direct or indirect parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, or subsidiaries or affiliates of its parent
companies, collectively referred to as the “Company Group”), and                     , an individual (the
“Executive”). 
 RECITALS 
 THE PARTIES ENTER THIS AGREEMENT on the basis of the following facts, understandings and intentions: 
 A. The Company desires that the Executive be employed by the Company to carry out the duties and responsibilities described below,
all on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. 
 B. The Executive desires to accept such employment on such
terms and conditions. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above recitals incorporated herein and the mutual
covenants and promises contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby expressly acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: 
  

	1.	Retention and Duties. 

  

	1.1	Retention. The Company does hereby hire, engage and employ the Executive for the Period of Employment (as defined in Section 2) on the terms and
conditions expressly set forth in this Agreement. The Executive does hereby accept and agree to such hiring, engagement and employment, on the terms and conditions expressly set forth in this Agreement. The Executive agrees to commence active
employment with the Company on or before                      (the first day of such employment is referred to as the “Employment
Commencement Date”). 

  

	1.2	Duties. During the Period of Employment, the Executive shall serve the Company as its
                     and shall have such powers, duties and obligations consistent with such position as the Company’s Board of Directors (the
“Board”) shall determine from time to time. The Executive shall be subject to such directives of the Board and the corporate policies of the Company as they are in effect from time to time throughout the Period of Employment
(including, without limitation, the Company’s business conduct and ethics policies, as they may change from time to time). During the Period of Employment, the Executive shall report solely to the
                     of the Company. 

  

	1.3	 No Other Employment; Minimum Time Commitment. During the Period of Employment, the Executive shall both (i) devote substantially all
of the Executive’s business time, energy and skill to the performance of the Executive’s duties for the Company, and (ii) hold no other employment. The Executive’s service on the boards of

  

					
		 	-1-	 	Employment Contract

	 	 
directors (or similar body) of other business entities is subject to the approval of the Board. The Company shall have the right to require the Executive to resign from any board or similar body
which he may then serve if the Board reasonably determines in writing that the Executive’s service on such board or body interferes with the effective discharge of the Executive’s duties and responsibilities to the Company or that any
business related to such service is then in competition with any business of the Company or any of its affiliates, successors or assigns. 

  

	1.4	No Breach of Contract. The Executive hereby represents to the Company that: (i) the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Executive and the
Company and the performance by the Executive of the Executive’s duties hereunder shall not constitute a breach of, or otherwise contravene, the terms of any other agreement or policy to which the Executive is a party or otherwise bound;
(ii) that the Executive has no information (including, without limitation, confidential information and trade secrets) relating to any other person or entity which would prevent, or be violated by, the Executive entering into this Agreement or
carrying out his duties hereunder; (iii) that the Executive is not bound by any confidentiality, trade secret or similar agreement (other than this Agreement) with any other person or entity. 

  

	1.5	Location. The Executive acknowledges that the Company’s principal executive offices are currently located in Guangzhou, the People’s Republic of
China. The Executive’s principal place of employment shall be the Company’s principal executive offices. The Executive agrees that he will be regularly present at the Company’s principal executive offices. The Executive acknowledges
that he may be required to travel from time to time in the course of performing his duties for the Company. 

  

	2.	 Period of Employment. The “Period of Employment” shall be a period of three (3) years commencing on the Employment
Commencement Date and ending at the close of business on the third (3rd) anniversary of the Employment Commencement Date (the “Termination Date”); provided, however, that this Agreement shall be automatically renewed, and the Period of
Employment shall be automatically extended for one (1) additional year on the Termination Date and each anniversary of the Termination Date thereafter, unless either party gives notice, in writing, at least thirty (30) days prior to the
expiration of this Agreement and the Period of Employment (including any renewal thereof) of such party’s desire to terminate the Agreement or modify its terms. The term “Period of Employment” shall include any extension thereof
pursuant to the preceding sentence. Provision of notice that the Period of Employment shall not be extended or further extended, as the case may be, shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement and shall not constitute “Constructive
Termination” for purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Period of Employment is subject to earlier termination as provided below in this Agreement. 

  

	3.	Compensation. 

  

	3.1	 Base Salary. The Executive’s base salary (the “Base Salary”) during the Period of Employment shall be paid in

or by the Executive, or upon or following the expiration of the Period of Employment (in any case, the date that the Executive’s employment by the Company terminates is referred to as the “Severance Date”), the Company shall
have no further obligation to make or provide to the Executive, and the Executive shall have no further right to receive or obtain from the Company, any payments or benefits except as follows: 

 (a) The Company shall pay the Executive (or, in the event of his death, the Executive’s estate) any Accrued Obligations (as defined in
Section 5.5); 
 (b) If, during the Period of Employment, the Executive’s employment with the Company terminates as a
result of an Involuntary Termination (as defined in Section 5.5), the Executive shall be entitled to the following benefits: 
 (i) The Company shall pay the Executive (in addition to the Accrued Obligations), subject to tax withholding and other authorized deductions, an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the

Executive will no longer be entitled to, and the Company will no longer be obligated to make available to Executive or Executive’s spouse or dependents any group health, life or other similar insurance plans or any payment in respect of such
plans.

otherwise due terminated employees consistent with the terms of the applicable Company welfare benefit plan or applicable law. 
  

	5.4	Exclusive Remedy. The Executive agrees that the payments contemplated by Section 5.3 (and any applicable acceleration of vesting of an equity-based
award in accordance with the terms of such award in connection with the termination of the Executive’s employment) shall constitute the exclusive and sole remedy for any termination of his employment and the Executive covenants not to assert or
pursue any other remedies, at law or in equity, with respect to any termination of employment. The Company and Executive acknowledge and agree that there is no duty of the Executive to mitigate damages under this Agreement. All amounts paid to the
