English Translation

In consideration of my employment with Column A, its branches, affiliates, subsidiaries and successors or assigns that will enjoy its rights and assume its obligations in accordance with the laws (together the “Company” ), I hereby agree to the following:

1. Employment. I understand and acknowledge that my employment with the Company is for a specified duration as agreed to in the Employment Contract or other contract or agreement setting forth the employment relationship between the Company and I (together the “Employment Contract”). This Agreement shall be automatically extended accordingly upon the renewal or extension of the Employment Contract. I understand that this Agreement is not an employment or labor contract. Accordingly, not all the terms and conditions of my employment are listed herein.

2. Confidential Information.

(a) Company Information. I agree to, at all times during the term of my employment and thereafter, hold in strictest confidence, and not to use except for the benefit of the Company, or to disclose to any person, firm or corporation without written authorization of the Board of Directors of the Company, any Company Confidential Information. I understand that the “Company Confidential Information” includes all of the following that is available to me from the Company, either directly or indirectly, in writing, orally, by observation or any other means: proprietary information, information of a confidential nature, technical data, trade secrets or know-how, including but not limited to research materials and other research-related materials, product plans, products, services, customer lists and customers of the Company (including, but not limited to, customers of the Company on whom I called for business or with whom I become acquainted during the term of my employment), business partnerships and transactions, markets, software, development, inventions, processes, formulas, technology, designs, data, drawings, management, hardware management, computer programs, database, business plans, marketing, financial budgets and business information. I further understand that the Company Confidential Information does not include any of the foregoing items which has become publicly known and made generally available through no wrongful act of mine or of others who were under confidentiality obligations as to the item(s) involved.

(b) Former Employer Information. I agree that (i) I will not, during my employment with the Company, improperly use or disclose any proprietary information or trade secrets of any former employer or concurrent employer or any other third party; and (ii) I will not bring onto the premises of the Company any proprietary information or trade secrets belonging to any such former employer or concurrent employer or third party, unless such former employer or concurrent employer or third party gives its prior unconditional consent in writing and such written consent is submitted to the Company.

(c) Third Party Information. I recognize that the Company has received and in the future will receive from third parties their confidential or proprietary information (“Third Party Information”) subject to a duty on the Company’s part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. I undertake to hold such Third Party Information in the strictest confidence and not to disclose it without the consent of the Company to any person, firm or corporation (including but not limited to other members of the Company), and not to use such Third Party Information except as necessary in carrying out my work for the Company consistent with the Company’s agreement with such third party.

3. Inventions

(a) Prior Inventions. I have attached hereto, as Exhibit A, a list describing all productions, original works of authorship, creations, inventions, designs, copyrightable works, developments, improvements, discoveries, technical methods, know-how and other productions or items containing intellectual properties of any nature, whether or not patentable or otherwise registrable under the laws of any countries, which were made by me (solely or jointly with others) prior to my employment with the Company (collectively referred to as “Prior Inventions” ). Exhibit A(i) lists “My Own Prior Inventions” to which I own either solely or jointly with others and Exhibit A(ii) lists “Other Prior Inventions” to which I have no title. If any of the My Own Prior Inventions relates to the Company’s current or proposed business, products or research and development, I hereby assign such My Own Prior Inventions to the Company in accordance with this Agreement. If I fail to assign any My Own Prior Inventions to the Company for whatsoever reason, I hereby grant the Company an exclusive, royalty-free, assignable, irrevocable and worldwide license (including the right to sublicense through multilayered sublicensing) to use such My Own Prior Inventions in any manner, including to produce, manufacture, modify, use, sell and/or otherwise dispose of such My Own Prior Invention as part of or in connection with any product, process or machine. I agree to be responsible for the authenticity of the ownership status of any My Own Prior Inventions. If there is any flaw in my ownership of any My Own Prior Inventions, which makes the irrevocable and unconditional assignment and license as granted above invalid and not legally binding, or causes any damage to the Company, I hereby undertake to take full responsibility therefor. I hereby warrant that I will not use any of the Other Prior Inventions in the performance of my duties for the Company. All Prior Inventions consist of the inventions and innovations I made prior to my employment with the Company. If no Prior Inventions are listed in Exhibit A, I hereby represent that I have no prior inventions.

(b) Service Inventions

(i) Disclosure: I agree that during my term of the employment with the Company, I will promptly communicate to the Company in writing, with a disclosure of any particulars, inventions, original works of authorship, creations, designs, copyrightable works (including but not limited to computer software), developments, improvements, trade secrets, discoveries, technical methods, know-how, and other work-related information or matters which produce or may produce any intellectual property in any nature (“Inventions”) that are manufactured, created, designed or otherwise obtained by me (solely or jointly with others), no matter whether such Invention is patentable or otherwise registrable under the laws of a country. Within one year after termination of my employment with the Company, I will also promptly communicate and disclose to the Company in writing any Inventions developed by me solely or jointly with others which relate to my activities during my service with the Company. I will make immediate notification to those whose approval is the condition for me to observe the obligation in this clause, those people including but not limited to the co-inventors.

(ii) Title: To the extent permitted by law, the Company shall have a complete, absolute and exclusive title to and interest in (1) any Inventions made by me solely or jointly with others during the term of my employment with the Company, including but not limited to the Inventions made in the ordinary cause of my job, or executing a special duty assigned by the Company, or Inventions produced beyond performing my duty to the Company if (i) in completing such Inventions, I have occupied any time of the Company or employed any equipment, supplies, facilities or proprietary information of the Company, or (ii) such Inventions relate to the business of the Company or any research or development the Company is now carrying out or the Company is apparently expected to carry out in the future, and (2) any Inventions made by me solely or jointly with others within one year after termination of my employment with the Company that are related to any of my activities during the term of my employment with the Company ((1) and (2) together collectively referred to as the “Service Inventions”). I hereby waive any moral rights to which I may have to the Service Inventions. The Service Inventions and any rights, qualifications, benefits, privileges and interests (including but not limited to all intellectual property rights produced by or derived from such Service Inventions in any country) arising from them shall be considered “Company Interests”. Such Company Interests can be granted by the Company to any person or entity designated by the Company with the approval of the Board of Directors of the Company.

(iii) Assignment: I further warrant that, if I have any right or title to or interest in any Service Inventions, I hereby assign such right, title or interest to the Company and/or its designee. In the event that I can not assign any right or title to or interest in any Service Inventions to the Company, I hereby grant the Company an exclusive, royalty-free, assignable, irrevocable and worldwide license (including the right to sublicense through multilayered sublicensing) to exercise such non-assignable right, title and interest. If I can neither assign nor license to the Company any right, title or interest I may have to or in any Service Inventions, I hereby irrevocably waive and agree never to assert any claims against the Company or any Company’s successor with respect to such non-assignable and non-licensable right, title or interest. Subject to Article 3(a) hereof, if any Service Inventions assigned hereunder are made on the basis of any rights I have or have the right to license but I have not assigned hereunder, or incorporate such rights, or are improvements to or derivatives of such rights, or there are reasons to believe that no Service Inventions can be made, used, reproduced or sold without using or encroaching upon such rights, I hereby assign such rights to the Company; if such rights are non-assignable, I hereby grant the Company or its designee a royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual and worldwide license (including the right to sublicense through multilayered sublicensing) to use and exercise such rights so that the Company may exercise or use any Service Inventions that have been assigned (including any modifications, improvements and derivatives of such Service Inventions).

(c) Reward and Remuneration. I hereby agree that the Company will reward me for my Service Inventions in accordance with the provisions of the Company on rewards for employee inventions. I understand that such reward and the remuneration the Company pays me in accordance with the Employment Contract constitute all the reward and remuneration I am entitled to for my Service Inventions (including but not limited to the “reward” and “reasonable remuneration” set forth in Article 16 of the Patent Law of the People’s Republic of China). I hereby irrevocably waive any claim against the Company for any other reward or remuneration for any Service Inventions, regardless whether the Company implements or licenses such Service Inventions or whether the Company makes any profit or receives any royalty payment or license fees from such Service Inventions.

(d) Compulsory License by Patent Administration Department of Employee’s Service Inventions. I acknowledge that the Patent Administration Department Under the State Intellectual Property Office is empowered to grant a compulsory license to exploit Service Inventions in accordance with Chapter Six of the Patent Law of the People’s Republic of China. Without limiting the generality of the provisions of Article 3(c) hereof on reward and remuneration, I further agree and represent that the Company has an exclusive and absolute title to any royalty paid by any entity or person that exploits any Service Invention under a compulsory license, and I hereby waive my rights to claims in and to the foregoing royalty, if any, in spite of the nature of such rights and whether or not such rights are actual or accidental and are present or potential.

(e) Maintenance of Records. I agree to keep and maintain adequate and current written records of all Service Inventions and sign my name thereon during the term of my employment with the Company. The records will be in the form of notes, sketches, drawings, and any other format or manner that may be specified by the Company from time to time. The records will be available to and remain the exclusive and sole property of the Company at all times.

Actions taken by any of the above-mentioned persons as my agent shall have equal effect and validity as those taken by myself.

(2) I further agree, the obligations under the above sub-clause (f)(1) (including but not limited to execution of any instrument and taking various actions at the will of the Company or its designees and/or required by such obligations) shall remain valid and in effect during the term of my employment with the Company and after the termination of this Agreement.
