Coverage. The Borrower to maintain a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.25 to 1.00 tested quarterly on a rolling four quarters basis beginning March 31, 2014 (date of financial statement for testing); the Numerator shall be
Consolidated Pretax Net Income of Borrower and Corporate Guarantor plus Interest Expense of Borrower and Corporate Guarantor plus Depreciation and Amortization Expense of Borrower and Corporate Guarantor less Non-recurring Gains plus Non-recurring
Expenses less an assumed annual charge of $300,000 for annual required Capital Expenditures; Denominator shall be Current Maturities of Long Term Debt of Borrower and Corporate Guarantor plus Interest Expense of Borrower and Corporate Guarantor plus
Capital Lease payments of Borrower and Corporate Guarantor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Borrower fails to achieve the aforementioned Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for any rolling four quarters, Borrower shall have thirty
(30) days to cure the default after written notification from the Lender. Borrower may, at its discretion, elect to cure said Default by paying to Lender an amount of outstanding principal equal to or exceeding the amount of the calculated
shortfall of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio such that when the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is recalculated taking into account said principal payment to Lender, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.25 to 1.00 is achieved, Lender shall thereupon
provide Borrower a written waiver of said default. The financial data comprising both the Numerator and the Denominator will be derived from the same prior 4 quarter period. For example, the March
31st, 2014 measurement will use historical data from the 4 quarter period beginning 4/1/13 and ending 3/31/14. The one exception to this is that the historical amounts of Current Maturities of
Long Term Debt paid in accordance with the amortization schedule of the to-be-paid-off SunTrust loan will be replaced with the amount of required principal payments in accordance with the post-interest-only amortization schedule of this new loan
(i.e. $20,833.33 per month). Please refer to the sample calculations for the 3/31/14 measurement, attached hereto as Exhibit “B” for additional details.

REMEDIES 
 If an
Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, beyond any applicable cure period, Lender may, at its option: 
 1. Acceleration.
Declare all amounts previously advanced to Borrower hereunder or under the Note, and all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other obligations evidenced or secured by this Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents, to be immediately
due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind (all of which hereby are expressly waived), which may, at the option of Lender, bear interest at the maximum rate of interest allowed by law, and Lender may thereupon
institute proceedings to collect the same and/or foreclose the Mortgage. 
 2. Enforcement of Security. Exercise its rights and
remedies under the Note and under any of the other Loan Documents, including the Security Documents, in accordance with their terms. 
 3.
Receiver. Appoint a receiver as a matter of strict right, for the purpose of protecting, preserving and operating the Project, preventing waste, and protecting all rights accruing to Lender by virtue of this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents. All expenses incurred in connection with the appointment of a receiver, or in protecting, preserving or operating the Project, shall be chargeable against Borrower and shall be secured by the Security Documents. 

4. Other. Cumulatively exercise any other remedy specifically granted hereunder or now or hereafter existing in equity, at law, by
virtue of statute or otherwise. 
 ARTICLE VI 

OTHER PROVISIONS 

1. Loan Expenses. Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses in connection with the Loan, including without limitation any broker’s
fees and commissions, Lender’s reasonable attorneys’ and legal assistants’ fees, documentary, intangible and other taxes, recording costs and expenses, surveys required to be furnished by Borrower, appraisals, abstracting charges,
policies of title insurance and any endorsements thereto, and license and permit fees and Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless Lender from and against any and all costs, losses, liability and expense arising in connection with any of the
foregoing. Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to utilize the proceeds of the Loan to satisfy any and all of the costs and expenses referred to herein and no further direction or authorization from Borrower shall be necessary to warrant disbursements
in payment of the foregoing. 
 2. Further Assurances. Borrower agrees that at anytime, and from time to time, after the execution
and delivery of this Agreement, it shall, upon the request of Lender, execute and deliver such further documents and do such further acts and things as Lender may reasonably request in order to more fully effectuate the purposes of this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents. 
 3. Assignment. Lender, in the exercise of its sole discretion, may (i) assign this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, including all of its rights hereunder and thereunder, and 

  
 13 

 Loan #401663900 
  

 
cause the assignee or any subsequent assignee to make any advances of Loan proceeds not made at the time of the assignment, or (ii) participate the Loan with one or more other lending
institutions; and, in either such event, all the provisions of this Agreement shall continue to apply to the Loan. Lender shall have the right to disclose to any prospective assignee of or participant in the Loan such information regarding Borrower
or any Guarantor as Lender may deem necessary or expedient. Borrower shall have no right to assign this Agreement or the proceeds to be advanced hereunder without Lender’s prior written consent. 

4. Rights, Remedies, Powers. Each and every right, remedy and power granted to Lender hereunder shall be cumulative and in addition to
any other right, remedy or power herein specifically granted, now or hereafter existing in equity, at law, by virtue of statute or otherwise and may be exercised by Lender from time to time concurrently or independently and as often and in such
order as Lender may deem expedient. Any failure or delay on the part of Lender in exercising any such right, remedy or power, or abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce the same, shall not operate as a waiver thereof or affect
Lender’s right thereafter to exercise the same, and any single or partial exercise of any such right, remedy or power shall not preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy or power. In the event
Lender shall have proceeded to enforce any such right, remedy or power and such proceedings shall have been determined adversely to Lender, then in each such event Borrower and Lender shall be restored to their former positions and the rights,
remedies and powers of Lender shall continue as if no such proceedings had been taken. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, in the event of any breach or alleged breach by Lender of
any obligation of Lender to exercise reasonable discretion, or to take any required or permitted action in a timely fashion, under any provision hereof or thereof, then Borrower’s sole remedy in connection with any such breach or alleged breach
shall be an action for specific performance against Lender. 
 5. Modification, Waiver, Consent. Any modification or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement or any consent to any departure of any provision of this Agreement or any consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom shall not be effective in any event unless the same is in writing and signed by Lender, and then
such modification, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose given. Any notice to or demand on Borrower in any event not specifically required of Lender hereunder shall not entitle Borrower to
any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances unless specifically required hereunder. Any advance of Loan proceeds hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any of the conditions of Lender’s obligations to
make further advances nor, in the event Borrower is unable to satisfy any such condition, shall any such waiver have the effect of precluding Lender from thereafter declaring such inability to be an Event of Default as hereinabove provided. From and
after the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may accept or reject any offer or undertaking by Borrower to cure same in the exercise of Lender’s sole discretion.

receipt by Lender of a lesser amount than any sum of money herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other than on account of such stipulated sum, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check, or any letter accompanying any check, be deemed an
accord and satisfaction and Lender may accept such payment or check without prejudice to Lender’s right to recover the balance of any payment or other monies under this Agreement or pursue any of the remedies hereunder or under the other Loan
Documents. 
 14. Survival of Provisions. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made in this Agreement and the

of the Note and the other Loan Documents.

FIRST AMENDMENT (this “Amendment”) dated as of August 7, 2014, to the RIGHTS AGREEMENT dated as of November 23, 2007 (the “Rights Agreement”), between Ctrip.com International, Ltd., a company incorporated with limited liability under the Cayman Islands Companies Law (the “Company”), and The Bank of New York Mellon (formerly known as The Bank of New York), a New York banking corporation (the “Rights Agent”). Capitalized terms used herein shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Rights Agreement.

 

WHEREAS the Company may, at its option, amend the Rights Agreement (subject to certain conditions including no adverse effect on the interests of the holders of Rights as such), including extending the Final Expiration Date to another date, without the approval of any holders of Rights, ADSs or Ordinary Shares pursuant to the provisions of Section 28 of the Rights Agreement;

 

WHEREAS the Rights Agent shall, if the Company so directs, amend any provision of the Rights Agreement pursuant to Section 28 of the Rights Agreement; and

 

WHEREAS the Board desires to (a) change the Final Expiration Date to August 6, 2024 and (b) amend the definition of “Acquiring Person” and certain other related sections in the Rights Agreement, and the Company desires to amend the corresponding provisions of the Rights Agreement as set forth herein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual agreements set forth in the Rights Agreement and this Amendment, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

SECTION 1.  Amendment of Section 1(a). Section 1(a) of the Rights Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:

 

(a) “Acquiring Person” shall mean any Person who or which, together with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person, shall be the Beneficial Owner of ten percent (10%) or more of the Ordinary Shares then outstanding; provided, however, that no Person who or which, together with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person, is the Beneficial Owner of less than twenty percent (20%) of the Ordinary Shares then outstanding who or which is entitled to file, and files, a statement on Schedule 13G (“Schedule 13G”) pursuant to Rule 13d-1(b)(1) of the General Rules and Regulations under the Exchange Act as in effect at the time of the public announcement of this Agreement with respect to the Ordinary Shares Beneficially Owned by such Person (a “13G Institutional Investor”), shall be deemed to be an “Acquiring Person”; provided further, however, that a Person who or which was a 13G Institutional Investor shall no longer be a 13G Institutional Investor from and after the time it became subject to an obligation to file (regardless of the due date of such filing) a statement on Schedule 13D (“Schedule 13D”)  pursuant to Rule 13d-1(a), 13d-1(e), 13d-1(f) or 13d-1(g) of the General Rules and Regulations under

 

1

 

the Exchange Act as in effect at the time of the public announcement of this Agreement with respect to the Ordinary Shares Beneficially Owned by such Person, and shall be deemed an Acquiring Person if it, together with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person, is the Beneficial Owner of ten percent (10%) or more of the Ordinary Shares then outstanding at any point from and after the time it first became subject to an obligation to file (regardless of the due date of such filing) such a statement on Schedule 13D, provided that if at such time such Person’s (together with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person) Beneficial Ownership is not less than ten percent (10%) of the Ordinary Shares then outstanding, then such Person shall have thirty (30) days from such time to reduce the Beneficial Ownership of Ordinary Shares of such Person (together with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person) to below ten percent (10%) of the Ordinary Shares then outstanding before being deemed an “Acquiring Person” but shall be deemed an “Acquiring Person” if, after reducing its (together with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person) Beneficial Ownership of the Ordinary Shares then outstanding to below ten percent (10%), it (together with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person) subsequently becomes the Beneficial Owner of ten percent (10%) or more of the Ordinary Shares then outstanding, or if, prior to reducing its (together with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person) Beneficial Ownership to below ten percent (10%) of the Ordinary Shares then outstanding, it (together with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person) increases its Beneficial Ownership (other than as a result of an acquisition of Ordinary Shares by the Company) to a level above the lowest Beneficial Ownership of Ordinary Shares of such Person (together with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person) at any time during such thirty (30) day period.

iv.           any 13G Institutional Investor or any Person who has reported or is required to report such ownership on Schedule 13D under the Exchange Act (or any comparable or successor report) which Schedule 13D does not state any intention to or reserve the right to control or influence the management or policies of the Company or engage in any of the actions specified in Item 4 of such schedule

 

2

 

(other than the disposition of the Ordinary Shares) and, within ten (10) Business Days of being requested by the Company to advise it regarding the same, certifies to the Company that such Person acquired an amount equal to or in excess of ten percent (10%) but less than fifteen percent (15%) of the Ordinary Shares then outstanding, in the case of a Person who is not a 13G Institutional Investor, or an amount equal to or in excess of twenty percent (20%) but less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Ordinary Shares then outstanding, in the case of a 13G Institutional Investor, inadvertently or without knowledge of the terms of the Rights and who or that, together with all Affiliates and Associates, thereafter does not acquire additional Ordinary Shares while such Person is the Beneficial Owner of ten percent (10%) or more of the Ordinary Shares then outstanding, in the case of a Person who is not a 13G Institutional Investor, or twenty percent (20%) or more of the Ordinary Shares then outstanding, in the case of a 13G Institutional Investor; provided, however, that if the Person requested to so certify fails to do so within ten (10) Business Days, or the Person requested so to certify fails to reduce the Beneficial Ownership of Ordinary Shares of such Person (together with all Affiliates and Associates) within thirty (30) days from such time in order that such Person shall be the Beneficial Owner of less than ten percent (10%), in the case of a Person who is not a 13G Institutional Investor, or less than twenty percent (20%), in the case of a 13G Institutional Investor, of the Ordinary Shares then outstanding, then such Person shall become an Acquiring Person upon the expiration of such 10 Business Day period or such 30 day period, whichever occurs first.
