PURPOSE

     The purpose of the CRIC Holdings Limited 2008 Share Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) is to
promote the success and enhance the value of CRIC Holdings Limited, a company formed under the laws
of the Cayman Islands (the “Company”) by linking the personal interests of the members of
the Board, Employees, and Consultants to those of Company shareholders and by providing such
individuals with an incentive for outstanding performance to generate superior returns to Company
shareholders. The Plan is further intended to provide flexibility to the Company in its ability to
motivate, attract, and retain the services of members of the Board, Employees, and Consultants upon
whose judgment, interest, and special effort the successful conduct of the Company’s operation is
largely dependent.

ARTICLE 3

SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

     3.1 Number of Shares.

          (a) Subject to the provisions of Article 8 and Section 3.1(b), the maximum aggregate number of
Shares which may be issued pursuant to all Awards (including Incentive Share Options) (the “Award
Pool”) shall equal to 15% of the total outstanding Shares on an as-converted basis as of the
Effective Date, plus an increase of that number of Shares to be added on each of the third, sixth
and ninth anniversary of the Effective Date, as a result of which the Shares reserved in the Award
Pool as of each subsequent applicable anniversary for future issuances pursuant to all Awards
(including Incentive Share Options) granted under this Plan shall equal to 5% of the then total
outstanding Shares on an as-converted basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as of each of the
Effective Date and subsequent applicable anniversary, no more than 2,000,000 Shares may be issued
pursuant to Incentive Share Options under the Plan subject to provisions of Article 8 and Section
3.1(b).

          (b) To the extent that an Award terminates, expires, or lapses for any reason, any Shares
subject to the Award shall again be available for the grant of an Award pursuant to the Plan. To
the extent permitted by Applicable Law, Shares issued in assumption of, or in substitution for, any
outstanding awards of any entity acquired in any form or combination by the Company or any Parent
or Subsidiary of the Company shall not be counted against Shares available for grant pursuant to
the Plan. Shares delivered by the Participant or withheld by the Company upon the exercise of any
Award under the Plan, in payment of the exercise price thereof or tax withholding thereon, may
again be optioned, granted or warded hereunder, subject to the limitations of Section 3.1(a). If
any Restricted Shares are forfeited by the Participant or repurchased by the Company, such Shares
may again be optioned, granted or awarded hereunder, subject to the limitations of Section 3.1(a).
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3.1(b), no Shares may again be optioned, granted or
awarded if such action would cause an Incentive Share Option to fail to qualify as an incentive
Share option under Section 422 of the Code.

     3.2 Shares Distributed. Any Shares distributed pursuant to an Award may consist, in
whole or in part, of authorized and unissued Shares, treasury shares (subject to applicable law) or
Shares purchased on the open market. Additionally, in the discretion of the Committee, American
Depository Shares in an amount equal to the number of Shares which otherwise would be distributed
pursuant to an Award may be distributed in lieu of Shares in settlement of any Award. If the
number of Shares represented by an American Depository Share is other than on a one-to-one basis,
the limitations of Section 3.1 shall be adjusted to reflect the distribution of American
Depository Shares in lieu of Shares.

ARTICLE 4

ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION

     4.1 Eligibility. Persons eligible to participate in this Plan include Employees,
Consultants, and all members of the Board, as determined by the Committee.

5

 

     4.2 Participation. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee may, from
time to time, select from among all eligible individuals, those to whom Awards shall be granted and
shall determine the nature and amount of each Award. No individual shall have any right to be
granted an Award pursuant to this Plan.

     4.3 Jurisdictions. In order to assure the viability of Awards granted to Participants
employed in various jurisdictions, the Committee may provide for such special terms as it may
consider necessary or appropriate to accommodate differences in local law, tax policy, or custom
applicable in the jurisdiction in which the Participant resides or is employed. Moreover, the
Committee may approve such supplements to, or amendments, restatements, or alternative versions of,
the Plan as it may consider necessary or appropriate for such purposes without thereby affecting
the terms of the Plan as in effect for any other purpose; provided, however, that no such
supplements, amendments, restatements, or alternative versions shall increase the share limitations
contained in Section 3.1 of the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may not take any
actions hereunder, and no Awards shall be granted, that would violate any Applicable Laws.

ARTICLE 5

OPTIONS

     5.1 General. The Committee is authorized to grant Options to Participants on the
following terms and conditions:

          (a) Exercise Price. The exercise price per Share subject to an Option shall be
determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement which may be a fixed or variable
price related to the Fair Market Value of the Shares; provided, however, that no Option may be
granted to an individual subject to taxation in the United States at less than the Fair Market
Value on the date of grant. The exercise price per Share subject to an Option shall be determined
by the Committee or the Board and set forth in the Award Agreement which may be a fixed or variable
price related to the Fair Market Value of the Shares. The exercise price per Share subject to an
Option may be amended or adjusted in the absolute discretion of the Committee or the Board, the
determination of which shall be final, binding and conclusive. For the avoidance of doubt, to the
extent not prohibited by Applicable Laws or any exchange rule, a downward adjustment of the
exercise prices of Options mentioned in the preceding sentence shall be effective without the
approval of the Company’s shareholders or the approval of the affected Participants.

          (b) Time and Conditions of Exercise. The Committee shall determine the time or times
at which an Option may be exercised in whole or in part, including exercise prior to vesting;
provided that the term of any Option granted under the Plan shall not exceed ten years, except as
provided in Section 9.2. The Committee shall also determine any conditions, if any, that must be
satisfied before all or part of an Option may be exercised.

          (c) Payment. The Committee shall determine the methods by which the exercise price of
an Option may be paid, the form of payment, including, without limitation (i) cash or check
denominated in U.S. Dollars, (ii) to the extent permissible under the Applicable

6

 

Laws, cash or check in Chinese Renminbi, (iii) cash or check denominated in any other local
currency as approved by the Committee, (iv) Shares held for such period of time as may be required
by the Committee in order to avoid adverse financial accounting consequences and having a Fair
Market Value on the date of delivery equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Option or
exercised portion thereof, (v) after the Trading Date the delivery of a notice that the Participant
has placed a market sell order with a broker with respect to Shares then issuable upon exercise of
the Option, and that the broker has been directed to pay a sufficient portion of the net proceeds
of the sale to the Company in satisfaction of the Option exercise price; provided that payment of
such proceeds is then made to the Company upon settlement of such sale, (vi) other property
acceptable to the Committee with a Fair Market Value equal to the exercise price, or (vii) any
combination of the foregoing. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, no
Participant who is a member of the Board or an “executive officer” of the Company within the
meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act shall be permitted to pay the exercise price of an
Option in any method which would violate Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act.

          (d) Evidence of Grant. All Options shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement between
the Company and the Participant. The Award Agreement shall include such additional provisions as
may be specified by the Committee.

     5.2 Incentive Share Options. Incentive Share Options may be granted to Employees of
the Company, a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company. Incentive Share Options may not be granted to
Employees of a Related Entity or to Independent Directors or Consultants. The terms of any
Incentive Share Options granted pursuant to the Plan, in addition to the requirements of Section
5.1, must comply with the following additional provisions of this Section 5.2:

          (a) Expiration of Option. An Incentive Share Option may not be exercised to any
extent by anyone after the first to occur of the following events:

               (i) Ten years from the date it is granted, unless an earlier time is set in the Award
Agreement;

               (ii) Three months after the Participant’s termination of employment as an Employee; and

               (iii) One year after the date of the Participant’s termination of employment or service on
account of Disability or death. Upon the Participant’s Disability or death, any Incentive Share
Options exercisable at the Participant’s Disability or death may be exercised by the Participant’s
legal representative or representatives, by the person or persons entitled to do so pursuant to the
Participant’s last will and testament, or, if the Participant fails to make testamentary
disposition of such Incentive Share Option or dies intestate, by the person or persons entitled to
receive the Incentive Share Option pursuant to the applicable laws of descent and distribution.

          (b) Individual Dollar Limitation. The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of
the time the Option is granted) of all Shares with respect to which Incentive Share Options are
first exercisable by a Participant in any calendar year may not exceed $100,000 or such other
limitation as imposed by Section 422(d) of the Code, or any successor

7

 

provision. To the extent that Incentive Share Options are first exercisable by a Participant
in excess of such limitation, the excess shall be considered Non-Qualified Share Options.

          (c) Exercise Price. The exercise price of an Incentive Share Option shall be equal to
the Fair Market Value on the date of grant. However, the exercise price of any Incentive Share
Option granted to any individual who, at the date of grant, owns Shares possessing more than ten
percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of shares of the may not be less than
110% of Fair Market Value on the date of grant and such Option may not be exercisable for no more
than five years from the date of grant.

          (d) Transfer Restriction. The Participant shall give the Company prompt notice of any
disposition of Shares acquired by exercise of an Incentive Share Option within (i) two years from
the date of grant of such Incentive Share Option or (ii) one year after the transfer of such Shares
to the Participant.

          (e) Expiration of Incentive Share Options. No Award of an Incentive Share Option may
be made pursuant to this Plan after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date.

          (f) Right to Exercise. During a Participant’s lifetime, an Incentive Share Option may
be exercised only by the Participant.

ARTICLE 6

RESTRICTED SHARES AND RESTRICTED SHARE UNITS

     6.1 Grant of Restricted Shares. The Committee is authorized to make Awards of
Restricted Shares and/or Restricted Share Units to any Participant selected by the Committee in
such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions as determined by the Committee. All Awards
of Restricted Shares shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement.

     6.2 Issuance and Restrictions. Restricted Shares shall be subject to such
restrictions on transferability and other restrictions as the Committee may impose (including,
without limitation, limitations on the right to vote Restricted Shares or the right to receive
dividends on the Restricted Share). These restrictions may lapse separately or in combination at
such times, pursuant to such circumstances, in such installments, or otherwise, as the Committee
determines at the time of the grant of the Award or thereafter.

     6.3 Forfeiture/Repurchase. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee at the
time of the grant of the Award or thereafter, upon termination of employment or service during the
applicable restriction period, Restricted Shares that are at that time subject to restrictions
shall be forfeited or repurchased in accordance with the Award Agreement; provided, however, the
Committee may (a) provide in any Restricted Share Award Agreement that restrictions or forfeiture
and repurchase conditions relating to Restricted Shares will be waived in whole or in part in the
event of terminations resulting from specified causes, and (b) in other cases waive in whole or in
part restrictions or forfeiture and repurchase conditions relating to Restricted Shares.

     6.4 Certificates for Restricted Shares. Restricted Shares granted pursuant to the
Plan may be evidenced in such manner as the Committee shall determine. If certificates
representing

8

 

Restricted Shares are registered in the name of the Participant, certificates must bear an
appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such
Restricted Shares, and the Company may, at its discretion, retain physical possession of the
certificate until such time as all applicable restrictions lapse.

     6.5 Restricted Share Units.  At the time of grant, the Committee shall specify the
date or dates on which the Restricted Share Units shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable, and
may specify such conditions to vesting as it deems appropriate. At the time of grant, the
Committee shall specify the maturity date applicable to each grant of Restricted Share Units which
shall be no earlier than the vesting date or dates of the Award and may be determined at the
election of the grantee. On the maturity date, the Company shall, subject to Sections 7.4 and 7.5,
transfer to the Participant one unrestricted, fully transferable Share for each Restricted Share
Unit scheduled to be paid out on such date and not previously forfeited.

ARTICLE 7

PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO AWARDS

     7.1 Award Agreement. Awards under the Plan shall be evidenced by Award Agreements
that set forth the terms, conditions and limitations for each Award which may include the term of
an Award, the provisions applicable in the event the Participant’s employment or service
terminates, and the Company’s authority to unilaterally or bilaterally amend, modify, suspend,
cancel or rescind an Award.

     7.2 Limits on Transfer. No right or interest of a Participant in any Award may be
pledged, encumbered, or hypothecated to or in favor of any party other than the Company or a
Subsidiary, or shall be subject to any lien, obligation, or liability of such Participant to any
other party other than the Company or a Subsidiary. Except as otherwise provided by the Committee,
no Award shall be assigned, transferred, or otherwise disposed of by a Participant other than by
will or the laws of descent and distribution. The Committee by express provision in the Award or
an amendment thereto may permit an Award (other than an Incentive Share Option) to be transferred
to, exercised by and paid to certain persons or entities related to the Participant, including but
not limited to members of the Participant’s family, charitable institutions, or trusts or other
entities whose beneficiaries or beneficial owners are members of the Participant’s family and/or
charitable institutions, or to such other persons or entities as may be expressly approved by the
Committee, pursuant to such conditions and procedures as the Committee may establish. Any
permitted transfer shall be subject to the condition that the Committee receive evidence
satisfactory to it that the transfer is being made for estate and/or tax planning purposes (or to a
“blind trust” in connection with the Participant’s termination of employment or service with the
Company or a Subsidiary to assume a position with a governmental, charitable, educational or
similar non-profit institution) and on a basis consistent with the Company’s lawful issue of
securities.

     7.3 Beneficiaries. Notwithstanding Section 7.2, a Participant may, in the manner
determined by the Committee, designate a beneficiary to exercise the rights of the Participant and
to receive any distribution with respect to any Award upon the Participant’s death. A beneficiary,
legal guardian, legal representative, or other person claiming any rights pursuant to

9

 

the Plan is subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Award Agreement applicable
to the Participant, except to the extent the Plan and Award Agreement otherwise provide, and to any
additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by the Committee. If the Participant is
married and resides in a community property state, a designation of a person other than the
Participant’s spouse as his or her beneficiary with respect to more than 50% of the Participant’s
interest in the Award shall not be effective without the prior written consent of the Participant’s
spouse. If no beneficiary has been designated or survives the Participant, payment shall be made
to the person entitled thereto pursuant to the Participant’s will or the laws of descent and
distribution. Subject to the foregoing, a beneficiary designation may be changed or revoked by a
Participant at any time provided the change or revocation is filed with the Committee.

     7.4 Share Certificates. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company
shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificates evidencing shares of Share pursuant to
the exercise of any Award, unless and until the Board has determined, with advice of counsel, that
the issuance and delivery of such certificates is in compliance with all Applicable Laws,
regulations of governmental authorities and, if applicable, the requirements of any exchange on
which the Shares are listed or traded. All Share certificates delivered pursuant to the Plan are
subject to any stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee deems necessary or
advisable to comply all Applicable Laws, and the rules of any national securities exchange or
automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted, or traded. The Committee may
place legends on any Share certificate to reference restrictions applicable to the Share. In
addition to the terms and conditions provided herein, the Board may require that a Participant make
such reasonable covenants, agreements, and representations as the Board, in its discretion, deems
advisable in order to comply with any such laws, regulations, or requirements. The Committee shall
have the right to require any Participant to comply with any timing or other restrictions with
respect to the settlement or exercise of any Award, including a window-period limitation, as may be
imposed in the discretion of the Committee.

     7.5 Paperless Administration. Subject to Applicable Laws, the Committee may make
Awards, provide applicable disclosure and procedures for exercise of Awards by an internet website
or interactive voice response system for the paperless administration of Awards.

     7.6 Foreign Currency. A Participant may be required to provide evidence that any
currency used to pay the exercise price of any Award were acquired and taken out of the
jurisdiction in which the Participant resides in accordance with Applicable Laws, including foreign
exchange control laws and regulations. In the event the exercise price for an Award is paid in
Chinese Renminbi or other foreign currency, as permitted by the Committee, the amount payable will
be determined by conversion from U.S. dollars at the official rate promulgated by the People’s Bank
of China for Chinese Renminbi, or for jurisdictions other than the Peoples Republic of China, the
exchange rate as selected by the Committee on the date of exercise.

ARTICLE 8

CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE

     8.1 Adjustments. In the event of any dividend, share split, combination or exchange
of Shares, amalgamation, arrangement or consolidation, spin-off, recapitalization or other

10

 

distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to its shareholders, or any
other change affecting the shares of Shares or the share price of a Share, the Committee shall make
such proportionate adjustments, if any, as the Committee in its discretion may deem appropriate to
reflect such change with respect to (a) the aggregate number and type of shares that may be issued
under the Plan (including, but not limited to, adjustments of the limitations in Section 3.1); (b)
the terms and conditions of any outstanding Awards (including, without limitation, any applicable
performance targets or criteria with respect thereto); and (c) the grant or exercise price per
share for any outstanding Awards under the Plan.

     8.2 Corporate Transactions. Except as may otherwise be provided in any Award
Agreement or any other written agreement entered into by and between the Company and a Participant,
if a Corporate Transaction occurs:

          (a) The Committee upon, or in anticipation of, a Corporate Transaction, may in its sole
discretion provide for (i) any and all Awards outstanding hereunder to terminate at a specific time
in the future and shall give each Participant the right to exercise such Awards during a period of
time as the Committee shall determine, (ii) either the purchase of any Award for an amount of cash
equal to the amount that could have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of
the Participant’s rights had such Award been currently exercisable or payable or fully vested (and,
for the avoidance of doubt, if as of such date the Committee determines in good faith that no
amount would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant’
s rights, then such Award may be terminated by the Company without payment), (iii) the replacement
of such Award with other rights or property selected by the Committee in its sole discretion the
assumption of or substitution of such Award by the successor or surviving corporation, or a parent
or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of Shares and prices,
or (iv) provide for payment of Awards in cash based on the value of Shares on the date of the
Corporate Transaction plus reasonable interest on the Award through the date such Award would
otherwise be vested or have been paid in accordance with its original terms, if necessary to comply
with Section 409A of the Code.

described in (c) below, such Awards shall become fully exercisable and all forfeiture restrictions
on such Awards shall lapse immediately prior to the specified effective date of such Corporate
Transaction, provided that the Participant remains an Employee, Consultant or Director on the
effective date of the Corporate Transaction.

          (c) If the Award either is (i) assumed by the successor entity or Parent thereof or replaced
with a comparable Award (as determined by the Committee) with respect to shares of the capital
stock of the successor entity or Parent thereof or (ii) replaced with a cash incentive program of
the successor entity which preserves the compensation element of such Award existing at the time of
the Corporate Transaction and provides for subsequent payout in accordance with the same vesting
schedule applicable to such Award, then such Award (if assumed), the replacement Award (if
replaced), or the cash incentive program automatically shall become fully vested, exercisable and
payable and be released from any restrictions on transfer (other than transfer restrictions

capitalization of the Company or corporate change other than those specifically referred to in this
Article 8, the Committee may, in its absolute discretion, make such adjustments in the number and
class of shares subject to Awards outstanding on the date on which such change occurs and in the
per share grant or exercise price of each Award as the Committee may consider appropriate to
prevent dilution or enlargement of rights.

     8.4 No Other Rights. Except as expressly provided in the Plan, no Participant shall
have any rights by reason of any subdivision or consolidation of Shares of any class, the payment
of any dividend, any increase or decrease in the number of shares of any class or any dissolution,
liquidation, merger, or consolidation of the Company or any other corporation. Except as expressly
provided in the Plan or pursuant to action of the Committee under the Plan, no issuance by the

an Award or the grant or exercise price of any Award.

GENERAL PROVISIONS

     12.1 No Rights to Awards. No Participant, employee, or other person shall have any
claim to be granted any Award pursuant to the Plan, and neither the Company nor the Committee is
obligated to treat Participants, employees, and other persons uniformly.

     12.2 No Shareholders Rights. No Award gives the Participant any of the rights of a
Shareholder of the Company unless and until Shares are in fact issued to such person in connection
with such Award.

     12.3 Taxes. No Shares shall be delivered under the Plan to any Participant until such
Participant has made arrangements acceptable to the Committee for the satisfaction of any income
and employment tax withholding obligations under Applicable Laws. The Company or any Subsidiary
shall have the authority and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to
the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, local and foreign taxes (including the
Participant’s payroll tax obligations) required or permitted by law to be withheld with respect to
any taxable event concerning a Participant arising as a result of this Plan. The Committee may in
its discretion and in satisfaction of the foregoing requirement allow a Participant to elect to
have the Company withhold Shares otherwise issuable under an Award (or allow the return of Shares)
having a Fair Market Value equal to the sums required to be withheld. Notwithstanding any other
provision of the Plan, the number of Shares which may be withheld with respect to the issuance,
vesting, exercise or payment of any Award (or which may be repurchased from the Participant of such
Award after such Shares were acquired by the Participant from the Company) in order to satisfy the
Participant’s federal, state, local and foreign income and payroll tax liabilities with respect to
the issuance, vesting, exercise or payment of the Award shall, unless specifically approved by the
Committee, be limited to the number of Shares which have a Fair Market Value on the date of
withholding or repurchase equal to the aggregate amount of such liabilities based on the minimum
statutory withholding rates for federal, state, local and foreign income tax and payroll tax
purposes that are applicable to such supplemental taxable income.

14

 

     12.4 No Right to Employment or Services. Nothing in the Plan or any Award Agreement
shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Service Recipient to terminate any
Participant’s employment or services at any time, nor confer upon any Participant any right to
continue in the employ or service of any Service Recipient.

     12.5 Unfunded Status of Awards. The Plan is intended to be an “unfunded” plan for
incentive compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant pursuant to an
Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Award Agreement shall give the Participant any rights
that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company or any Subsidiary.

     12.6 Indemnification. To the extent allowable pursuant to applicable law, each member
of the Committee or of the Board shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from any
loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by such member in
connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which he or she may be
a party or in which he or she may be involved by reason of any action or failure to act pursuant to
the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid by him or her in satisfaction of judgment in
such action, suit, or proceeding against him or her; provided he or she gives the Company an
opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before he or she undertakes to
handle and defend it on his or her own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be
exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled pursuant to
the Company’s Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association, as a matter of law, or
otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless.

     12.7 Relationship to other Benefits. No payment pursuant to the Plan shall be taken
into account in determining any benefits pursuant to any pension, retirement, savings, profit
sharing, group insurance, welfare or other benefit plan of the Company or any Subsidiary except to
the extent otherwise expressly provided in writing in such other plan or an agreement thereunder.

     12.8 Expenses. The expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company
and its Subsidiaries.

     12.9 Titles and Headings. The titles and headings of the Sections in the Plan are for
convenience of reference only and, in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than
such titles or headings, shall control.

     12.10 Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Share shall be issued and the
Committee shall determine, in its discretion, whether cash shall be given in lieu of fractional
shares or whether such fractional shares shall be eliminated by rounding up or down as appropriate.

     12.11 Limitations Applicable to Section 16 Persons. Notwithstanding any other
provision of the Plan, the Plan, and any Award granted or awarded to any Participant who is then
subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth
in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including any amendment to
Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act) that are requirements for the application of such

15

 

exemptive rule. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan and Awards granted or
awarded hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such applicable
exemptive rule.

     12.12 Government and Other Regulations. The obligation of the Company to make payment
of awards in Share or otherwise shall be subject to all Applicable Laws, rules, and regulations,
and to such approvals by government agencies as may be required. The Company shall be under no
obligation to register any of the Shares paid pursuant to the Plan under the Securities Act or any
other similar law in any applicable jurisdiction. If the Shares paid pursuant to the Plan may in
certain circumstances be exempt from registration pursuant to the Securities Actor other Applicable
Laws the Company may restrict the transfer of such shares in such manner as it deems advisable to
ensure the availability of any such exemption.

     12.13 Governing Law. The Plan and all Award Agreements shall be construed in
accordance with and governed by the laws of the Cayman Islands.

     12.14 Section 409A. To the extent that the Committee determines that any Award
granted under the Plan is or may become subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Award Agreement
evidencing such Award shall incorporate the terms and conditions required by Section 409A of the
Code. To the extent applicable, the Plan and the Award Agreements shall be interpreted in
accordance with Section 409A of the Code and the U.S. Department of Treasury regulations and other
interpretative guidance issued thereunder, including without limitation any such regulation or
other guidance that may be issued after the Effective Date. Notwithstanding any provision of the
Plan to the contrary, in the event that following the Effective Date the Committee determines that
any Award may be subject to Section 409A of the Code and related Department of Treasury guidance
(including such Department of Treasury guidance as may be issued after the Effective Date), the
Committee may adopt such amendments to the Plan and the applicable Award agreement or adopt other
policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or
take any other actions, that the Committee determines is necessary or appropriate to (a) exempt the
Award from Section 409A of the Code and /or preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits
provided with respect to the Award, or (b) comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code
and related U.S. Department of Treasury guidance.

     12.15 Appendices. The Committee may approve such supplements, amendments or
appendices to the Plan as it may consider necessary or appropriate for purposes of compliance with
applicable laws or otherwise and such supplements, amendments or appendices shall be considered a
part of the Plan; provided, however, that no such supplements shall increase the share limitations
contained in Sections 3.1 and 3.3 of the Plan.
