Borrowers:

 

[specify
name of shareholder of a consolidated controlled entity] of [specify address]as “Borrower I;”
and

 

[specify
name of shareholder of a consolidated controlled entity] of [specify address]as “Borrower II.”

 

The Lender and each Borrower are hereinafter
referred to collectively as the “Parties” and each as a “Party.”

 

WHEREAS:

equity interest in [specify name of the consolidated controlled entity] (hereinafter referred to as the “Company”),
a domestically funded company with limited liability registered in [specify city], China, and qualified as an independent
legal person;

 

Borrower II holds a [specify percentage]%
equity interest in the Company; and

 

The Lender, on [specify date], provided
a loan of [specify amount] in Renminbi to Borrower I, and a loan of [specify amount] in Renminbi to Borrower II.

 

The aforesaid loans are collectively referred
to as the “Loan.”

 

NOW,
THEREFORE, in order to identify the rights and obligations of any Party, the Parties hereof, through friendly negotiations,
agree as follows:

 

1.           Loan

 

1.1           Provision of the Loan. The Borrowers applied to the Lender for the Loan. The Lender agreed to provide the Loan to
the Borrowers and disbursed the Loan in full to the Borrowers on [specify date].

 

    	 	-1-	 

     

    

 

1.2           Term of the Loan. The term of the Loan starts from the date on which the Loan was provided until [specify number]
years thereafter. Should any Borrower not be able to repay the Loan in compliance with Article 1.4 of this Agreement due
to the restrictions under applicable laws upon the expiry of the term, the term of the Loan shall be extended automatically until
such time when the applicable laws permit the repayment in such mode and the Lender agrees to accept the repayment by the Borrowers
in accordance with the mode of payment set forth in Article 1.4 herein.

 

Except as provided in Article 1.5 herein,
the Borrowers may not request to repay the Loan before the due date.

 

1.3           Use of the Loan. The Borrowers hereby agree and warrant that the Loan shall be used solely as capital contributed
to the Company for its business expansion. Without prior written consent of the Lender, the Borrowers shall not make use of the
Loan for any other purpose, nor shall the Borrowers transfer, pledge or mortgage their equity interests or other rights and interests
in the Company to any third party other than the Lender.

 

1.4           Repayment of the Loan. Pursuant to applicable PRC laws, the Borrowers shall repay the Loan by means of transferring
their respective equity interests in the Company to the Lender or any other person designated by the Lender; and the Borrowers
shall have no further obligations after so transferring as aforesaid.

 

Any profits or gains from the transfer by
the Borrowers of their equity interests in the Company shall be paid back to the Lender or the person designated by the Lender
in accordance with provisions hereof.

 

1.5           Advance Repayment of the Loan. During the term of the Loan, as extended pursuant hereunder, the Borrowers shall be
liable, jointly and severally, to repay their respective portions of the Loan prior to its due date upon the written request of
the Lender if any of the following events occurs:

 

(1)           any Borrower dies or becomes incapacitated, or becomes limited in its capacity for civil conduct;

 

(2)           any Borrower leaves, resigns from, or is suspended or dismissed from, the post at the Lender or the Lender’s associated
companies;

 

(3)           any Borrower transfers, without the Lender’s consent, its equity interest in the Lender or in the Lender’s other
associated companies held by such Borrower to any third party not contemplated by this Agreement;

 

(4)           any Borrower commits a criminal act or is involved in criminal activities;

 

(5)           any third party not contemplated hereunder raises a claim to any Borrower for over five hundred thousand Renminbi (RMB 500,000);
or

 

    	 	-2-	 

     

    

 

(6)           in accordance with applicable PRC laws, a foreign entity is able to solely operate a value-added telecommunication business,
and the relevant authorities have started to examine and approve application for such businesses.

 

Pursuant to the applicable PRC laws, the
Lender is entitled, but not obliged, to purchase, or designate any other person to purchase, at any time all or part of each Borrower’s
equity interest in the Company at any price agreed to by all Parties.

 

2.           Transfer of this Agreement. The Borrowers may not transfer any of their rights and/or obligations hereunder to any
third party without the prior written consent of the Lender. After notice to the other Party, the Lender may transfer any of its
rights and/or obligations hereunder to any third party designated by the Lender.

 

3.           Representations, Warranties and Undertakings of Each Borrower. The Borrowers are PRC citizens with full capacity
for civil act, with full and independent legal status, and are legally competent to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement.
Each of the Borrowers may sue or be sued in a litigation.

 

The Borrowers warrant that they shall not,
without the Lender’s prior written consent, transfer, pledge or mortgage their respective equity interests or other rights
and interests in the Company to any third party other than the Lender.

 

In order to ensure the stability of the
value of the equity interests of the Company which form the basis for the Borrowers to repay the Loan, the Borrowers shall ensure
standard operations of the Company. The Borrowers undertake to execute an irrevocable shareholders proxy agreement to empower the
Lender or any other person designated by the Lender to exercise any and all shareholder rights the Borrowers may exercise in the
Company.

 

4.           Confidential Terms. Each Party hereby agrees that it shall endeavor to take reasonable measures to keep confidential
the other Parties’ confidential materials and information (hereinafter referred to as “Confidential Information”)
known or acquired by such Party due to the execution and performance of this Agreement. Without the prior written consent of the

the start of negotiations, it shall be submitted to the China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission for arbitration
and be arbitrated in Beijing, China in accordance with its arbitration rules when such arbitration application was submitted. The
arbitral award shall be final and binding upon all Parties. Unless otherwise decided by the arbitration commission, arbitration
fees and other expenses in relation to such arbitration shall be borne by the losing Party.

 

8.           Force Majeure. “Force majeure” means any unforeseeable circumstance which is beyond the control of a

of such force majeure event, and the time for performing such obligations shall be extended automatically until the force majeure
event ends. The affected Party shall not be liable for its non-performance during the force majeure event.
