ARTICLE VIII

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.1 Parent Indemnification Obligations. Parent shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Investor, its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and successors and assigns, from and after the Effective Time, against any and all Losses incurred by any of them or to which any of them becomes subject, resulting from, arising out of or relating to (a) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Parent in this Agreement or any other document to be delivered by Parent pursuant to this Agreement, or (b) any breach of any covenant or agreement of Parent contained in this Agreement or in any other document to be delivered by Parent pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 8.2 Investors Indemnification Obligations. Each Investor shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Parent, its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and successors and assigns, from and after the Effective Time, against any and all Losses incurred by any of them or to which any of them becomes subject, resulting from, arising out of or relating to (a) any breach of any representation or warranty made by such Investor in this Agreement or in any other document to be delivered by Parent pursuant to this Agreement, or (b) any breach of any covenant or agreement of such Investor contained in this Agreement or in any other document to be delivered by Parent pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 8.3 Method of Asserting Claims. Claims for indemnification by an Indemnified Party under Section 8.1 or Section 8.2 will be asserted and resolved as follows:

(a) Third-Party Claims. In the event that an Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion of any claim or the commencement of any Action by a third party in respect of which indemnity may be sought under the provisions of Section 8.1 or Section 8.2 (a “Third-Party Claim”) , the Indemnified Party shall deliver an Indemnity Notice with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to provide the Indemnity Notice with reasonable promptness after the Indemnified Party receives notice of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will not be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim to the extent that the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend is actually materially prejudiced by such failure of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party will notify the Indemnified Party as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 30 days (or less if the nature of the Third Party Claim requires) after receipt of the Indemnity Notice as to whether the Indemnifying Party will assume the defense or prosecution of such Third-Party Claim and any litigation resulting therefrom with counsel of its choice (reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party) and at its sole cost and expense.

(i) Defense by Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party (A) chooses not to defend the Third-Party Claim, (B) chooses to defend the Third-Party Claim but any time thereafter fails to prosecute or defend vigorously and diligently or settle (subject to the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed)) the Third-Party Claim, or (C) agrees in writing or if there is a conflict as described in Section 8.3(a)(ii), then the Indemnified Party will have the right (but not the obligation) to defend the Third-Party Claim with counsel (including relevant local counsel) of its choice, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party. If it elects to defend the Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will have full control of such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof; provided, however, that if requested by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party will, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, provide reasonable cooperation to the Indemnified Party and its counsel in contesting any Third-Party Claim that the Indemnified Party is contesting. The Indemnifying Party may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement controlled by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 8.3, and the Indemnifying Party will bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation.

(ii) Defense by Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 8.3(a) that the Indemnifying Party will assume the defense of the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall include in such notice an acknowledgement of the Indemnifying Party’s obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party for all Losses relating to such Third-Party Claim and shall defend, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, such Third-Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings will be vigorously and diligently prosecuted or defended by the Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion or will be settled at the discretion of the Indemnifying Party, in each case, subject to the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed). Once the Indemnifying Party has duly assumed the defense of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in any such defense and to employ separate counsel of its choosing. The Indemnified Party shall participate in any such defense at its own expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if counsel for the Indemnified Party reasonably determines that there is a conflict between the positions of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party in conducting the defense of such Third-Party Claim or that there are legal defenses available to such Indemnified Party different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party, then counsel for the Indemnified Party shall be entitled, if the Indemnified Party so elects, to participate in or conduct the defense to the extent reasonably determined by such counsel to protect the interests of the Indemnified Party, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party. If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party will, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, provide reasonable cooperation to the Indemnifying Party in contesting any Third-Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party elects to contest.

(b) Non-Third-Party Claims. In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim under Section 8.1 or Section 8.2 against any Indemnifying Party that does not involve a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall deliver an Indemnity Notice with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Party. The failure or delay by any Indemnified Party to give the Indemnity Notice shall not impair such Indemnified Party’s rights hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually materially prejudiced by such failure or delay. If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that it does not dispute the claim described in such Indemnity Notice or fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the thirty (30) day period following receipt of an Indemnity Notice as to whether the Indemnifying Party disputes the claim described in such Indemnity Notice, the Loss identified in the Indemnity Notice will be conclusively deemed an indemnifiable Loss under Section 8.1 or Section 8.2 and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Loss to the Indemnified Party on demand. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party will proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute and, if not resolved through negotiations within the thirty (30) day period following receipt by the Indemnified Party of notice that the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability with respect to such Loss, such dispute shall be finally settled by binding arbitration pursuant to Section 9.8.

Section 8.4 Further Items Relating to Indemnification. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the right of any Indemnified Party to indemnification under this ARTICLE VIII shall be subject to the following terms:

(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, an Investor shall not be obligated to make indemnification payments pursuant to Section 8.2 or have any further liability to Parent hereunder or in connection with the Merger in the event that such Investor has paid pursuant to Section 5.5(b) its share of any reverse termination fee or other amount payable by Parent to the Company in accordance with Section 5.5(b) and its share of fees and out-of-pocket expenses related to the Merger payable in accordance with Section 5.5(c), Section 5.5(d) and Section 5.5(e); provided, that the limitations set forth in this Section 8.4(a) shall not apply to any Losses resulting from, arising out of or relating to any fraudulent acts or intentional misrepresentation.

(b) No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification for any Losses under Section 8.1(d) unless and until the aggregate amount of Losses suffered, sustained or incurred by such Indemnified Party exceeds $250,000 (the “Deductible”), at which time such Indemnified Party shall be entitled to be indemnified and compensated for its Losses in excess over the Deductible; provided, that the limitations set forth in this Section 8.4(b) shall not apply to any Losses resulting from, arising out of or relating to any fraudulent acts or intentional misrepresentation.

(c) For purposes of calculating damages under this ARTICLE VIII only, all qualifications as to materiality, Material Adverse Effect or similar qualifiers contained in any representation or warranty in this Agreement and the Merger Agreement shall be disregarded.

(d) To the extent that any Losses for which any Investor brings a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 8.1 are originally incurred by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, an Investor’s Losses shall be deemed to be equal to the Losses incurred by Parent or any such Subsidiaries or Affiliates, as the case may be, multiplied by the Investor’s Proportionate Pro Forma Ownership.

(e) Parent shall not have any liability under any provision of this Agreement for any punitive, incidental, consequential, special or indirect damages, including business interruption, diminution of value, loss of future revenue, profits or income, or loss of business reputation or opportunity relating to the breach or alleged breach of this Agreement.

Section 8.5 Exclusive Remedies. The Parties acknowledge that, upon the consummation of the Closing, the sole and exclusive remedies of (a) each Investor (including its Affiliates, officers, directors, managers, employees, agents, representatives and successors and permitted assigns) against Parent with respect to any and all Losses resulting from, arising out of or relating to (i) any breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, or (ii) any failure to perform any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement and of (b) Parent (including its Affiliates, officers, directors, managers, employees, agents, representatives and successors and permitted assigns) against any Investor with respect to (i) any and all Losses resulting from, arising out of or relating to any breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, or (ii) any failure to perform any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement shall be, in each case, the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE VIII, and no Indemnified Party shall be entitled to pursue, and each Investor and Parent hereby expressly waives, any and all additional remedies that may otherwise be available with respect thereto, except for remedies with respect to any fraudulent acts or intentional misrepresentation by any Investor or Parent. For the avoidance of doubt, (x) nothing in this Section 8.5 shall preclude any Investor from seeking specific performance of, or other equitable relief with respect to, any covenant of any other Party contained in this Agreement and (y) and the sole and exclusive remedy of the other Parties with respect to any failure of any Investor to fund its Subscription Price on the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement shall be the enforcement of the provisions contained in Section 5.5(b) and either Section 5.5(d) or Section 5.5(e), as applicable.

Section 9.3 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby and the Transactions is not affected in any manner adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby and the Transactions be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 9.4 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Merger Agreement, the Rollover Agreement and the Limited Guarantees constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all contemporaneous or prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the Parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

Section 9.5 Specific Performance. Each Investor acknowledges and agrees that monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy in the event that any covenant or agreement of such Investor in this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its terms, and therefore agrees that, in addition to and without limiting any other remedy or right available to Parent or the Company, as applicable, each of Company (at the direction of the Special Committee) and Parent will have the right to an injunction, temporary restraining order or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction enjoining any such breach and enforcing specifically the terms and provisions hereof. Each Investor agrees not to oppose the granting of such relief in the event a court determines that such a breach has occurred, and to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy. All rights, powers, and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise of any thereof by Parent or the Company, as applicable, shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power or remedy by Parent or the Company.

Section 9.6 Amendments; Waivers. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement will be valid and binding unless it is in writing and signed by each Party and the Company (acting at the direction of the Special Committee). Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be amended, modified, supplemented, terminated or waived except by an agreement in writing signed by each of the Parties and the Company (acting at the direction of the Special Committee). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by a Party in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder.

Section 9.7 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of Law or conflict of Law rules or provisions that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.

Section 9.8 Dispute Resolution; Jurisdiction; Enforcement. Any disputes, actions and proceedings against any party or arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement and schedules hereto shall be submitted to the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (“HKIAC”) and resolved in accordance with the Arbitration Rules of HKIAC in force at the relevant time. The place of arbitration shall be Hong Kong. The official language of the arbitration shall be English, and the arbitration tribunal shall consist of three arbitrators (each, an “Arbitrator”). The claimant(s), irrespective of number, shall nominate jointly one Arbitrator; the respondent(s), irrespective of number, shall nominate jointly one Arbitrator; and a third Arbitrator will be nominated jointly by the first two Arbitrators and shall serve as chairman of the arbitration tribunal. In the event the claimant(s) or respondent(s) or the first two Arbitrators shall fail to nominate or agree the joint nomination of an Arbitrator or the third Arbitrator within the time limits specified by the HKIAC Rules, such Arbitrator shall be appointed promptly by the HKIAC. The arbitration tribunal shall have no authority to award punitive or other punitive-type damages. The award of the arbitration tribunal shall be final and binding upon the disputing parties. Any party to an award may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for enforcement of such award and, for purposes of the enforcement of such award, the parties irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the jurisdiction of any court of competent jurisdiction and waive any defenses to such enforcement based on lack of personal jurisdiction or inconvenient forum.

Section 9.9 Third-Party Beneficiaries. There are no third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer on any Person other than the Parties (and their respective successors, heirs and permitted assigns), any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities, except as specifically set forth in this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) the Company is an express third-party beneficiary of this Agreement with the right to rely on the Agreement and (ii) if the Company has obtained an order of specific performance pursuant to Section 10.10 of the Merger Agreement, the Company is an express third party beneficiary of the rights granted to Parent under this Agreement to the extent of the rights set forth in ARTICLE II and ARTICLE IX (other than Section 9.1) and shall be entitled to specific performance (or another non-monetary equitable remedy) to cause each Investor to fund its respective Subscription Price pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.1 to enable Parent and Merger Sub to effect the Closing under the Merger Agreement.

Section 9.10 Assignment; Binding Effect. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the Investors (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of Parent and the Company (acting at the direction of the Special Committee). Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Section 9.11 No Presumption Against Drafting Party. Each of the Parties acknowledges that it has been represented by independent counsel in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions. Accordingly, any rule of Law or any legal decision that would require interpretation of any claimed ambiguities in this Agreement against the drafting Party has no application and is expressly waived.

Section 9.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more consecutive counterparts (including by email pdf format), each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered (by email pdf format or otherwise) to the other Parties; provided, however, that if any Investor fails for any reason to execute, or perform its obligations under, this Agreement, this Agreement shall remain effective as to all Parties executing this Agreement.
