3.3       Demand Registration.

 

(a)        Request by Holders. If the Company shall receive, at any time after the earlier of:

6

(i)          (x) the fifth (5th) anniversary of the closing date under the Onshore A-2 Capital Increase Agreement with respect to Tencent, and (y) the sixth (6th) anniversary of the closing date under the Onshore A-2 Capital Increase Agreement with respect to other Holders (provided that if Tencent exercises the right of demand registration in accordance with the foregoing (x), other Holders shall also be entitled to exercises the right of demand registration in accordance with the mechanism hereof); or

 

(ii)          a Qualified IPO,

 

a written request from the Holders (for the avoidance of doubt, in case Tencent exercises the right of demand registration in accordance with Section 3.3(a)(i)(x), such Holders shall include Tencent and other Holders thereafter entitled and elect to exercise the right of demand registration) of at least thirty percent (30%) of the Registrable Securities then outstanding that the Company files a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 3.3, then the Company shall, within ten (10) Business Days after the receipt of such written request, give a written notice of such request (the “Request Notice”) to all Holders. The Holders shall send a written notice stating the number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered and included in such registration (the “Request Securities”) to the Company within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Request Notice. The Company shall thereafter use its best efforts to effect, as soon as practicable, the registration of the Request Securities, subject only to the limitations of this Section 3.3.

 

(b)        Underwriting. If the Holders initiating the registration request under this Section 3.3 (the “Initiating Holders”) intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, then they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to this Section 3.3 and the Company shall include such information in the Request Notice referred to in Section 3.3(a). In the event of an underwritten offering, the right of any Holder to include its Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting (unless otherwise mutually agreed by a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders and such Holder) to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being registered and reasonably acceptable to the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.3, if the underwriter(s) advise(s) the Company in writing that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of securities to be underwritten, then the Company shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities which would otherwise be registered and underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall be reduced as required by the underwriter(s) and allocated among the Holders of Registrable Securities on a pro-rata basis according to the number of Registrable Securities then outstanding held by each Holder requesting registration (including the Initiating Holders); provided,  however, that the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be included in such underwriting and registration shall not be reduced (x) by more than seventy-five percent (75%) and (y) unless all other securities are first entirely excluded from the underwriting and registration including all shares that are not Registrable Securities and are held by any other Person, including any Person who is an employee, officer or director of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company. Further, if, as a result of such underwriter cutback, the Holders cannot include in the IPO all of the Registrable Securities that

7

they have requested to be included therein, then such Registration shall not be deemed to constitute one of the three (3) demand Registrations to which the Holders are entitled pursuant to this Section 3. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by delivering a written notice to the Company and the underwriter(s), delivered at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the effective date of the registration statement. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be excluded and withdrawn from the registration. For any Holder that is a partnership, the Holder and the partners and retired partners of such Holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners and retired partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing Persons, and for any Holder that is a corporation, the Holder and all corporations that are affiliates of such Holder, shall be deemed to be a single “Holder”, and any pro-rata reduction with respect to such “Holder” shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in such “Holder”, as defined herein.

 

(c)        Maximum Number of Demand Registrations. The Company shall have no obligation to effect more than three (3) registrations pursuant to this Section 3.3.

 

(d)        Deferral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall furnish to the Holders requesting the filing of a registration statement pursuant to this Section 3.3, a certificate signed by the president or chief executive officer of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board, it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its shareholders for such registration statement to be filed, then the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than ninety (90) days after receipt of the request of the Initiating Holders; provided,  however, that the Company may not utilize this right more than once in any twelve (12) month period; provided further that during such ninety (90) day period, the Company shall not file any registration statement pertaining to the public offering of any securities of the Company.

 

(e)        Expenses. The Company shall pay all expenses (excluding only underwriting discounts and commissions relating to the Registrable Securities sold by the Holders) incurred in connection with any registration pursuant to this Section 3.3, including all U.S. federal, “blue sky” and all foreign registration, filing and qualification fees, printer’s and accounting fees, the fees and expenses (including disbursements) of outside counsels for the Holders and any fee charged by any depositary bank, transfer agent or share registrar. Each Holder participating in a registration pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall bear such Holder’s proportionate share (based on the total number of shares of Registrable Securities sold in such registration other than for the account of the Company) of all discounts and commissions relating to the Registrable Securities sold by the Holders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to pay any expense of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to this Section 3.3 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be registered, unless the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding agree that such registration constitutes the use by the Holders of one (1) demand registration pursuant to this Section 3.3 (in which case such registration shall also constitute the use by all Holders of Registrable Securities of one (l) such demand registration); provided further,  however, that if at the time of such withdrawal, the Holders have learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business, or prospects of the Company not known to the Holders at the time of their request for such registration and have withdrawn their request for registration with reasonable promptness after learning of such material adverse change, or if the registration proceeding is terminated for

8

any reason not specifically covered by this Section 3.3(e), then the Company shall be required to pay all of such expenses and such registration shall not constitute the use of a demand registration pursuant to this Section 3.3.

 

3.4       Piggyback Registrations. The Company shall notify all Holders of Registrable Securities in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to filing of any registration statement under the Securities Act for purposes of effecting a public offering of securities of the Company (including registration statements relating to secondary offerings of securities of the Company, but excluding registration statements relating to any registration under Section 3.3 or Section 3.5 of this Agreement or to any employee benefit plan or a corporate reorganization) and will afford each such Holder an opportunity to include in such registration statement all or any part of the Registrable Securities then held by such Holder. Each Holder desiring to include in any such registration statement all or any part of the Registrable Securities held by such Holder shall within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the above-described notice from the Company, so notify the Company in writing, and in such notice shall inform the Company of the number of Registrable Securities such Holder wishes to include in such registration statement. If a Holder decides not to include all of its Registrable Securities in any registration statement thereafter filed by the Company, such Holder shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include any Registrable Securities in any subsequent registration statement or registration statements as may be filed by the Company with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.

 

(a)        Underwriting. If a registration statement under which the Company gives notice under this Section 3.4 is for an underwritten offering, then the Company shall so advise the Holders of Registrable Securities. In such event, the right of any such Holder’s Registrable Securities to be included in a registration pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter or underwriters selected by the Company for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the managing underwriter(s) determine(s) in good faith that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the managing underwriter(s) may exclude shares from the registration and the underwriting, and the number of shares that may be included in the registration and the underwriting shall be allocated, first to the Company, and second, to each of the Holders requesting inclusion of their Registrable Securities in such registration statement on a pro-rata basis based on the total number of Registrable Securities then held by each such Holder; provided, however, that the right of the underwriter(s) to exclude shares (including Registrable Securities) from the registration and underwriting as described above shall be restricted so that (i) the number of Registrable Securities included in any such registration is not reduced below twenty-five percent (25%) of the aggregate number of Registrable Securities for which inclusion has been requested, even if this will cause the Company to reduce the number of shares it wishes to offer; and (ii) all shares that are not Registrable Securities and are held by any other Person, including any Person who is an employee, officer or director of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company shall first be excluded from such registration and underwriting before any Registrable Securities are so excluded. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by delivering a written notice to the Company and the underwriter(s) at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the effective date of the registration statement. Any

9

Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be excluded and withdrawn from the registration. For any Holder that is a partnership, the Holder and the partners and retired partners of such Holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners and retired partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing Persons, and for any Holder that is a corporation, the Holder and all corporations that are affiliates of such Holder, shall be deemed to be a single “Holder,” and any pro-rata reduction with respect to such “Holder” shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in such “Holder,” as defined in this sentence.

 

(b)        Expenses. The Company shall pay all expenses (excluding only underwriting and brokers’ discounts and commissions relating to shares sold by the Holders) incurred in connection with a registration pursuant to this Section 3.4, including all U.S. federal, “blue sky” and all foreign registration, filing and qualification fees, printers’ and accounting fees, the fees and expenses (including disbursements) of outside counsels for the Holders and any fee charged by any depositary bank, transfer agent or share registrar. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall pay all expenses incurred in connection with a registration pursuant to this Section 3.4 notwithstanding the cancellation or delay of the registration proceeding for any reason.

 

(c)        Not Demand Registration.   Registration pursuant  to this Section 3.4 shall not be deemed to be a demand registration as described in Section 3.3 above. Except as otherwise provided herein, there shall be no limit on the number of times the Holders may request registration of Registrable Securities under this Section 3.4.

 

3.5       Form S-3 or Form F-3 Registration. After its initial public offering, the Company shall use its best efforts to qualify for registration on Form S-3 or Form F-3 or any comparable or successor form promptly and to maintain such qualification thereafter. If the Company is qualified to use Form S-3 or Form F-3, any Holder or Holders shall have a right to request in writing that the Company effect a registration on either Form S-3 or Form F-3 and any related qualification or compliance with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder or Holders, and upon receipt of each such request, the Company shall perform the tasks set out in paragraphs (a) and (b) below:

 

(a)        Notice. Promptly give written notice of the proposed registration and the Holder’s or Holders’ request therefor, and any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders of Registrable Securities; and

 

(b)        Registration. As soon as practicable, effect such registration and all such qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Holders or Holders’ Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within twenty (20) days after the date on which the Company provides the notice contemplated by Section 3.5(a); provided,  however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this Section 3.5:

 

(i)          if Form S-3 or Form F-3 becomes unavailable for such offering by the Holders;

10

(ii)          if the Holders, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate price of less than US$1,000,000 to the public; or

 

(iii)          if the Company has, within the six (6) month period preceding the date of such request, already effected a registration under the Securities Act other than a registration from which the Registrable Securities of Holders have been excluded (with respect to all or any portion of the Registrable Securities the Holders requested to be included in such registration) pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.4(a).

 

(c)        Expenses. The Company shall pay all expenses (excluding only underwriting or brokers’ discounts and commissions relating to shares sold by the Holders) incurred in connection with each registration requested pursuant to this Section 3.5, including all U.S. federal, “blue sky” and all foreign registration, filing and qualification fees, printers’ and accounting fees, the fees and expenses (including disbursements) of outside counsels for the Holders and any fee charged by any depositary bank, transfer agent or share registrar. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall pay all expenses incurred in connection with a registration pursuant to this Section 3.5 notwithstanding the cancellation or delay of the registration proceeding for any reason.

 

(d)        Maximum Frequency. Except as otherwise provided herein, there shall be no limit on the number of times the Holders may request registration of Registrable Securities under this Section 3.5.

 

(e)        Deferral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall furnish to Holders requesting the filing of a registration statement pursuant to this Section 3.5, a certificate signed by the president or chief executive officer of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board, it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its shareholders for such Form S-3 or Form F-3 registration statement to be filed, then the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than ninety (90) days after receipt of the request of the initiating Holders; provided,  however, that the Company may not utilize this right more than once in any twelve (12) month period; provided further that during such ninety (90) day period, the Company shall not file any registration statement pertaining to the public offering of any securities of the Company.

 

(f)        Not Demand Registration. Form S-3 or Form F-3 registrations shall not be deemed to be demand registrations as described in Section 3.3 above.

 

(g)        Underwriting. If the requested registration under this Section 3 is for an underwritten offering, the provisions of Section 3.3(b) shall apply.

 

If the Company fails to perform any of the Company’s obligations set forth above in this Section 3.5 relating to a demand registration made pursuant to Section 3.3, such registration shall not constitute the use of a demand registration under Section 3.3.

 

3.6       Obligations of the Company. Whenever required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under this Agreement, the Company shall, as soon as practicable:

11

(a)        Registration Statement. Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective, and keep any such registration statement effective for a period of one (1) year or until the Holder or Holders have completed the distribution described in the registration statement relating thereto, whichever is earlier;

 

(b)        Amendments and Supplements.

(d)        Blue Sky. Use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders, provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions;

 

(e)        Deposit Agreement. If the registration relates to an offering of depositary shares or other securities representing Ordinary Shares deposited pursuant to a deposit agreement or similar facility, cause the depositary under such agreement or facility to accept for deposit under such agreement or facility all Registrable Securities requested by each Holder to be included in such registration in accordance with this Section 3;

 

(f)        Underwriting. In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter(s) of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement;

 

(g)        Notification. Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing;

 

(h)        Opinions and Comfort Letter. Furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting registration of Registrable Securities, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriter(s) for sale, if such Registrable Securities are being sold through underwriters, or, if such Registrable Securities are not being sold through underwriters, on the date that the registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities becomes effective, (i) opinions, each dated as of such date, of the counsels representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an

 

12

underwritten public offering and reasonably satisfactory to Holders representing a majority of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities and (ii) a “comfort letter” dated as of such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering and reasonably satisfactory to Holders representing a majority of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities.

 

3.7       Furnish Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to Sections 3.3, 3.4 or 3.5 that the Holders shall furnish to the Company information regarding such Holders, the Registrable Securities held by them and the intended method of disposition of such Registrable Securities as shall reasonably be required to timely effect the Registration of their Registrable Securities.

 

3.8       Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a registration statement under Sections 3.3, 3.4 or 3.5:

 

(a)        By the Company. To the extent permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Holder and its Affiliates, partners, officers, directors, employee, legal counsel, agent, any underwriter (as determined in the Securities Act) for such Holder and each Person, if any, who Controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other applicable law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities or actions in respect thereof arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a “Violation”):

 

(i)          any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto;

 

(ii)          the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or

 

(iii)          any violation or alleged violation of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any federal or state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other applicable law in connection with the offering covered by such registration statement;

 

and the Company shall reimburse each such Holder and its Affiliates, partners, officers, directors, employees, legal counsel, agents, underwriters or controlling Person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them, in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided,  however, that the indemnity contained in this Section 3.8(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, nor shall the Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based

13

upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by such Holder, underwriter or controlling Person of such Holder.

 

(b)        By Selling Shareholders. To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder, on a several and not joint basis, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who have signed the registration statement, each Person, if any, who Controls the Company, any underwriter and any other Holder selling securities under such registration statement or any of such other Holder’s partners, directors, officers, legal counsel or any Person who Controls such Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which the Company or any such director, officer, legal counsel, controlling Person, underwriter or other such Holder, partner or director, officer or controlling Person of such other Holder may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other applicable law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities or actions in respect thereto arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in the Company’s reasonable reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such Holder will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director, officer, controlling Person, underwriter or other Holder, partner, officer, director or controlling Person of such other Holder in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action: provided,  however, that the indemnity contained in this Section 3.8(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided further that the total amounts payable in indemnity by a Holder under this Section 3.8(b) plus any amount under Section 3.8(e) in respect of any Violation shall not exceed the net proceeds received by such Holder in the registered offering out of which such Violation arises.

 

(c)        Notice. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 3.8 of notice of the commencement of any action, including any governmental action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 3.8, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof (a “Claim Notice”) and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, (i) during the period from the delivery of a Claim Notice until retention of counsel by the indemnifying party; and (ii) if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflict of interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver a written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall relieve such indemnifying party of liability to the indemnified party under this Section 3.8 to the extent the indemnifying party is prejudiced as a result thereof, but the omission to deliver a written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 3.8.

14

(d)        Defect Eliminated in Final Prospectus. The foregoing indemnity of the Company and Holders are subject to the condition that, insofar as they relate to any Violation made in a preliminary prospectus but eliminated or remedied in the amended prospectus on file with the SEC at the time the registration statement in question becomes effective or the amended prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to SEC Rule 424(b) (the “Final Prospectus”), such indemnity shall not inure to the benefit of any Person if a copy of the Final Prospectus was timely furnished to the indemnified party and was not furnished to the Person asserting the loss, liability, claim or damage at or prior to the time such action is required by the Securities Act.

 

(e)        Contribution. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either (i) any Holder exercising rights under this Agreement, or any controlling Person of any such Holder, makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 3.8 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that this Section 3.8 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of any such selling Holder or any such controlling Person in circumstances for which indemnification is provided under this Section 3.8; then, and in each such case, the Company and such Holder will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and of the indemnified party, on the other, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided,  however, that, in any such case: (A) no such Holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the net proceeds received by such Holder pursuant to such registration statement absent guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation; and (B) no Person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation as defined in Section 11(f) of the Securities Act will be entitled to contribution from any Person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

(f)        Survival. The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 3.8 shall survive for six (6) years after the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement, regardless of the expiration of any statutes of limitation or extensions of such statutes.

 

3.9       Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to:

 

(a)        Make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 or any similar or analogous rule promulgated under the Securities Act, at all times after the effective date of the first registration filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to the general public;

 

(b)        File with the SEC, in a timely manner, all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, at all times after the effective date of the first registration under the Securities Act filed by the Company;

15

(c)        So long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to such Holder forthwith upon request, (i) a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of said Rule 144 of the Securities Act, and of the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual, interim, quarterly or other report of the Company and, (iii) such other reports and documents as a Holder may reasonably request availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing it to sell any such securities without registration.

 

3.10     Termination of the Company’s Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligations pursuant to Sections 3.3, 3.4 or 3.5 with respect to any Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by a Holder in a registered public offering (i) five (5) years after the consummation of a Qualified IPO, or (ii), if, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, all such Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by a Holder may then be sold under Rule 144 in one transaction without exceeding the volume limitations thereunder.

 

3.11     No Registration Rights to Third Parties. Without the prior written consent of the Holders of more than fifty percent (50%) of the Registrable Securities then outstanding, the Company covenants and agrees that it shall not grant, or cause or permit to be created, for the benefit of any Person or entity any registration rights of any kind, whether similar to the demand, “piggyback” or Form S-3 or Form F-3 registration rights described in this Section 3, or otherwise, relating to any shares or other securities of the Company, other than rights that are subordinate to the rights of the Holders hereunder.

 

3.12     “Market Stand-Off” Agreement. Each Holder hereby agrees that, if and to the extent requested by the lead underwriter of securities of the Company in connection with a registration relating to a specific proposed public offering (other than a registration on Form S-8 or a related or successor form relating solely to an employee benefit plan or a registration on Form S-4 or a related or successor form relating solely to a transaction under SEC Rule 145), such Holder will, subject to the following conditions, enter into a lock-up or standoff agreement in customary form (subject to the following conditions) under which such Holder agrees not to sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Registrable Securities or other shares of the Company owned by such Holder as of the date of such registration for up to one hundred eighty (180) days following the effective date of the related registration statement. The obligations of each Holder under this Section 3.12 are subject to the following conditions: (i) the lockup or standoff agreement applies only to the first registration statement of the Company which covers securities to be sold on its behalf to the public in an underwritten offering, but not to Registrable Securities actually sold pursuant to such registration statement; (ii) such Holder is satisfied that all directors, officers, and holders of 1% or more of any class of securities of the Company are bound by substantially identical restrictions; (iii) the lockup or standoff agreement provides that if any securities of the Company are to be excluded or released in whole or part from such restrictions, the underwriter shall so notify each Holder within three (3) days and each Holder shall be excluded or released, in proportionate amounts to the extent of the exclusion or release with respect to any other holder of Company’s securities, including any director, officer, or holder of 1% or more of any class of securities of the Company subject to such restrictions; and (iv) the lockup or standoff agreement by its terms permits transfers of Registrable Securities by any Holder to any Affiliate of such Holder during the restricted period, provided that such Affiliate executes a lock-up or standoff agreement substantively identical to that signed by the transferring Holder. The lock-up or standoff agreement shall expire no later than ninety (90) days after execution by the Holder if no

16

underwritten public offering has occurred by the date of such execution. The Company may impose a stop-transfer restriction with respect to Registrable Securities that are subject to any such lockup or standoff agreement but shall remove such restriction immediately upon the expiration or termination of such lockup or standoff agreement.

 

3.13     Public Offering Rights (Non-U.S. Offerings). If shares of the Company are offered in an underwritten public offering (whether or not a Qualified IPO) outside of the United States for the account of any Ordinary Shareholder or other shareholders, each Holder shall have the right to include a pro-rata number of shares (based on the number of shares (on an as - converted basis) then held by such Holder and all other shareholders of the Company selling in such offering) in such offering on terms and conditions no less favorable to the Holders than to any other selling shareholder.

 

4.         RIGHT OF PARTICIPATION.

 

4.1       With Respect to Issuance of New Securities:

 

(a)        General. Each of the Preferred Shareholders, the Key Parties and the Non- Executive Holder (collectively, the “Participation Rights Holders”, and each a “Participation Rights Holder) shall have a right of first refusal to purchase such a Pro Rata Share of the New Securities that the Company may from time to time issue after the date of this Agreement (the “Right of Participation”).

 

(b)        Pro Rata Share. A Participation Rights Holder’s “Pro Rata Share” is the ratio of (a) the number of Ordinary Shares then held by such Participation Rights Holder (calculated on a fully-diluted and as-converted basis), to (b) the total number of Ordinary Shares then outstanding of the Company (calculated on a fully-diluted and as-converted basis) immediately prior to the giving rise to the Right of Participation. For the avoidance of doubt, when calculating the Pro Rata Share of the Key Parties, the Ordinary Shares held by the Key Parties through the Non-Executive Holder shall be excluded.

 

(c)        New Securities. “New Securities” shall mean any Preferred Shares, Ordinary Shares or other voting shares of the Company, whether now authorized or not, and rights, options or warrants to purchase such Preferred Shares, Ordinary Shares and securities of any type whatsoever that are, or may become, convertible or exchangeable into such Preferred Shares, Ordinary Shares or other voting shares, provided,  however, that the term “New Securities” shall not include:

 

(i)          any Preferred Shares issued under the Share Purchase Agreements and any Warrant, any outstanding securities convertible into Preferred Shares or Ordinary Shares as of the date hereof, or Ordinary Shares issued upon conversion of the Preferred Shares authorized;

 

(ii)          in the aggregate up to 250,013,276 Ordinary Shares issued or issuable under the ESOP as approved by the Board (including the affirmative votes of the Majority Directors (including the Series Pre-A Director (for so long as Tencent holds no less than four point eight percent (4.8%) of all Shares of the Company (on a fully-diluted and as-converted basis)));

 

17

(iii)          any securities issued in connection with any share split, share dividend or other similar capital restructuring event as approved by Tencent and the Series A Preferred Majority;

 

(iv)          any securities issued or issuable as a dividend or distribution ratably allocated on the holders of all outstanding Shares; and

 

(v)          any securities offered in a Qualified IPO by the Company.

 

(d)       Procedures.

 

(i)          First Participation Notice. In the event that the Company proposes to undertake an issuance of New Securities in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, it shall give to each Participation Rights Holder a written notice of its intention to issue New Securities (the “First Participation Notice”), describing the amount, the type and the price of New Securities and the general terms upon which the Company proposes to issue such New Securities. Each Participation Rights Holder shall be entitled to purchase such Participation Rights Holder’s Pro Rata Share of such New Securities at the price and upon the terms and conditions specified in the First Participation Notice by giving a written notice to the Company and stating therein the number of New Securities to be purchased (such number shall not exceed such Participation Rights Holder’s Pro Rata Share) within fifteen (15) Business Days after the receipt of such First Participation Notice. If any Participation Rights Holder fails to send such written notice within the prescribed time period or declines to exercise fully its Right of Participation, then the right of such Participation Rights Holder to purchase its Pro Rata Share hereunder shall be forfeited.

 

(ii)          Second Participation Notice; Oversubscription. If any Participation Rights Holder fails or declines to fully exercise its Right of Participation in accordance with subsection (d)(i) above, the Company shall promptly give a written notice (the “Second Participation Notice”) to the Participation Rights Holders who agreed to fully exercise their Right of Participation (the “Rights Participants”) in accordance with subsection (d)(i) above. Each Rights Participant shall have fifteen (15) Business Days after the receipt of the Second Participation Notice (the “Second Participation Period”) to notify the Company of its desire to purchase more than its Pro Rata Share of the New Securities, stating the number of the additional New Securities it proposes to purchase. Such notice may be made by telephone if followed by a written confirmation within two (2) Business Days from the date of verbal notice. If as a result thereof, such oversubscription exceeds the total number of the remaining New Securities available for purchase, the oversubscribing Rights Participants will be cut back by the Company with respect to their oversubscriptions to that number of remaining New Securities equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the number of the remaining New Securities available for subscription by (ii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of the Ordinary Shares held by such oversubscribing Rights Participant (calculated on a fully-diluted and as-converted basis) and the denominator of which is the total number of Ordinary Shares held by all oversubscribing Rights Participant (calculated on a fully-diluted and as-converted basis).

 

(e)        Failure to Exercise. Upon the expiration of the Second Participation Period or upon the expiration of the First Participation Period in the event no Participation Rights Holder exercises the Right of Participation during the First Participation Period, the Company shall

18

thereafter be entitled to sell the New Securities described in the First Participation Notice (with respect to which the Right of Participation was not fully exercised) at the same price and upon the same non-price terms specified in the First Participation Notice.

 

4.2       With Respect to Shares Owned by Shareholders:

 

(a)        Restriction on Transfers by Original Shareholders. Subject to Section 9.1, each Original Shareholder may not sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise dispose of its Shares to any Person, whether directly or indirectly, except in compliance with this Section 4.2 and Section 5.

 

(b)        Notice of Sale. If any Shareholder (in any case excluding Tencent) (the “Selling Shareholder”; for the avoidance of doubt, in any case the Selling Shareholder shall exclude Tencent) proposes to sell or transfer, directly or indirectly, any of its Shares (the “Transfer Shares”), then the Selling Shareholder shall promptly give a written notice (the “Transfer Notice”) to the Company and to each holder of the Preferred Shares, the Key Parties and the Non-Executive Holder (collectively the “Non-Selling Shareholders”, and each a “Non-Selling Shareholder”), which Transfer Notice shall include (i) the number of Transfer Shares to be sold or transferred and the nature of such sale or transfer, (ii) the identity (identities) (including name(s) and address(es)) of the prospective transferee(s), and (iii) the consideration and the material terms and conditions upon which the proposed sale or transfer is to be made.

 

(c)        Notice of Purchase. Each Non-Selling Shareholder shall be entitled to purchase all or any part of the Transfer Shares at the price and upon the terms and conditions specified in the Transfer Notice by giving a written notice (“Respond Notice”) to the Selling Shareholder within fifteen (15) Business Days after the receipt of the Transfer Notice (the “Refusal Period”) stating therein the number of Transfer Shares to be purchased.

 

If a Non-Selling Shareholder exercises such right and notifies the Selling Shareholder of the number of Transfer Shares to be purchased, then such Non-Selling Shareholder shall complete the purchase of the Transfer Shares on the same terms and conditions as those set out in the Transfer Notice. A failure by a Non-Selling Shareholder to respond within such prescribed period shall constitute a decision by such Non-Selling Shareholder not to exercise its right to purchase such Transfer Shares.

 

The Selling Shareholder shall promptly give a written notice (“Exercising Notice”) to each Preferred Shareholders upon receipt of notice from any Key Party and/or the Non- Executive Holder, which shall include whether such Key Party and/or Non-Executive Holder elects to purchase Transfer Shares and the number of Transfer Shares such Non-Selling Shareholder intends to purchase. Furthermore, each Preferred Shareholder shall be entitled to withdraw the Respond Notice or adjust the Respond Notice accordingly within the Refusal Period.

 

(d)        With respect to the subsequence of the Non-Selling Shareholders to exercise their respective right of first refusal, each of the Preferred Shareholders shall have the right to purchase such Preferred Shareholder’s pro rata share of the Transfer Shares in preference to other Non-Selling Shareholders. For the avoidance of doubt, each Preferred Shareholder’s foregoing pro rata share of the Transfer Shares shall be equal to the number of Transfer Shares, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Ordinary Shares (on a fully-diluted and

19

as-converted basis) held by such Preferred Shareholder on the date of the Transfer Notice and the denominator of which shall be the total number of Ordinary Shares (on a fully-diluted and as- converted basis) held on the date of the Transfer Notice by all Preferred Shareholders which exercise their right of first refusal under this Section 4.2 on the date of the Transfer Notice.

5.         INVESTORS’ CO-SALE RIGHT.

 

5.1       Co-Sale Right. If any Original Shareholder (the “Selling Original Shareholder”) proposes to sell or transfer, directly or indirectly, any of its Shares to any third party other than such Affiliates agreed by Tencent and the Series A Preferred Majority, to the extent any holder of Series Pre-A Preferred Shares and any holder of Series A Preferred Shares (the “Co-Sale Right Holder”) does not exercise its respective rights of first refusal as to all of the Transfer Shares of the Selling Original Shareholder pursuant to Section 4.2, such Co-Sale Right Holder shall have the right (but not the obligations), exercisable upon delivery of a written notice to the Selling Original Shareholders, with a copy to the Company, within fifteen (15) Business Days after the expiration of the Refusal Period, to participate in the sale of any Transfer Shares to the extent of such Co- Sale Right Holder’s Pro Rata Co-Sale Share at the same price and upon the same terms and conditions indicated in the Transfer Notice. A failure by any Co-Sale Right Holder to respond within such prescribed period shall constitute a decision by such Co-Sale Right Holder not to exercise its right of co-sale as provided herein. The foregoing co-sale right of each Co-Sale Right Holder shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

 

(a)        each Co-Sale Right Holder may sell all or any part of its Pro Rata Share of the Transfer Shares. A Co-Sale Right Holder’s “Pro Rata Co-Sale Share” of a specified quantity of Transfer Shares of any Selling Original Shareholder shall mean that number of Ordinary Shares (or that number of Preferred Shares which, if converted at the current conversion ratio, would equal that number of Ordinary Shares) which equals the specified quantity of the remaining Transfer Shares which are among the Transfer Shares that the Original Shareholders propose to sell or transfer after the full exercise of the right of first of refusal of the Non-Selling Shareholders

20

in accordance with Section 4.2, multiplied by a fraction equal to (i) the total number of Ordinary Shares (on an a fully -diluted and as-converted basis) then held by such Co-Sale Right Holder exercising co-sale rights pursuant to this Section 5, divided by (ii) the total number of Ordinary Shares held by the Selling Original Shareholder plus the total number of Ordinary Shares then held by all Co-Sale Right Holders exercising co-sale rights pursuant to this Section 5, on a fully-diluted and as-converted basis.

 

(b)        each Co-Sale Right Holder shall effect its participation in the sale by promptly delivering to the applicable Selling Original Shareholder, with a copy to the Company, for transfer to the prospective purchaser share certificates in respect of all Shares to be sold by such Preferred Shareholder and a transfer form signed by such Co-Sale Right Holder, which indicates:

 

(i)          the number of Ordinary Shares which such Co-Sale Right Holder elects to sell (on a fully diluted and as-converted basis);

 

(ii)          that number of Preferred Shares which is at such time convertible into the number of Ordinary Shares that such Co-Sale Right Holder elects to sell; or

 

(iii)          any combination of the foregoing;

 

provided, however, that if the prospective purchaser objects to the delivery of Preferred Shares in lieu of Ordinary Shares, such Co-Sale Right Holder shall convert such Preferred Shares into Ordinary Shares and deliver Ordinary Shares. The Company agrees to make any such conversion concurrent with the actual transfer of such shares to the purchaser.

 

5.2       Procedure at Closing. The share certificate or certificates that such Co-Sale Right Holder delivers to the Selling Original Shareholder pursuant to Section 5.1(b) shall be transferred to the prospective purchaser in consummation of the sale of the Transfer Shares pursuant to the terms and conditions specified in the Transfer Notice, and the Selling Original Shareholder shall concurrently therewith remit to such Co-Sale Right Holder that portion of the sale proceeds to which such Co-Sale Right Holder is entitled by reason of its participation in such sale. To the extent that any prospective purchaser or purchasers prohibit such assignment or otherwise refuse to purchase shares or other securities from a Co-Sale Right Holder exercising its rights of co-sale hereunder, the Selling Original Shareholder shall not sell any Transfer Shares to such prospective purchaser or purchasers unless and until, simultaneously with such sales, the Selling Original Shareholder shall purchase such shares or other securities from such Co-Sale Right Holder with terms and conditions no less favorable than those specified in the Transfer Notice.

 

6.         ASSIGNMENT AND AMENDMENT.
