Under the premise of being permitted by Chinese law, the Existing Shareholders hereby irrevocably grant Party A to purchase or designate one or more persons (individually referred to as the “Designated Person”) to purchase from Existing Shareholders an irrevocable exclusive right of all or part of the equities held by Party D at that time (“Equity Option Right”) at one or more times from the Existing Shareholders in accordance with steps to be exercised by Party A and the price stated in Article 1.3 of this Agreement. Except for Party A and the Designated Person, no other person may enjoy the Equity Option Right or other rights related to the equities of Existing Shareholders.

The “Person” as defined in this paragraph and this Agreement refers to an individual, company, joint venture, partnership, enterprise, trust or non-corporate organization.

 

 

1.2                     Exercise steps

If the lowest price allowed by Chinese law when Party A exercises the right is higher than the aforementioned price, the transfer price shall be subject to the lowest price permitted by Chinese law (“Equity Purchase Price”).

For the purposes of this paragraph and this Agreement, “security interest” includes guarantees, mortgages, third party rights or interests, any equity option rights, acquisition rights, pre-emptive rights, set-off rights, retention of ownership or other guarantee arrangements. But for the sake of clarity, it does not include any security interest arising under this Agreement, the Existing Shareholders’ Equity Pledge Agreement and the Existing Shareholders’ Power of Attorney.
