Whereas:

 

As of the date of this Agreement, the registered capital of Party C is RMB10,000,000; Party B is all the shareholders of Party C and collectively holds 100% of the equity interests in Party C;

 

Now therefore, upon mutual discussion and negotiation, the Parties have reached the following agreement:

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 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 the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“China”) 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.
