WHEREAS, the Parties propose to form a consortium (the "Consortium") to undertake a transaction (the "Transaction") to acquire Homeinns Hotel Group, a Cayman Islands company (the "Target"), which would result in a delisting of the Target from the Nasdaq Global Market ("Nasdaq") and deregistering the Target under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act");

WHEREAS, on June 11, 2015, the Parties submitted a non-binding proposal (the "Proposal") to the board of directors of the Target in connection with the Transaction

WHEREAS, on June 30, 2015, the Parties entered into a confidentiality agreement with the Target for the purposes of gaining access to information with respect to the Target in connection with the Transaction; and

WHEREAS, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Parties will cooperate and participate in (a) the evaluation of the Target, including conducting due diligence, (b) discussions regarding the Proposal with the Target, and (c) the negotiation of the terms of the Documentation in connection with the Transaction (in which negotiations the Parties expect that the Target will be represented by a special committee of independent and disinterested directors of the Target), including an agreement and plan of merger in the form to be agreed by the Parties (the "Merger Agreement").

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and of the mutual agreements and covenants set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

The 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.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties hereby consent to and agree that in addition to any recourse to arbitration as set out in this Section 9.10, any Party may, to the extent permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where application is made, seek an interim injunction from a court or other authority with competent jurisdiction and, notwithstanding that this Agreement is governed by the laws of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, a court or authority hearing an application for injunctive relief may apply the procedural law of the jurisdiction where the court or other authority is located in determining whether to grant the interim injunction. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 9.10(b) is only applicable to the seeking of interim injunctions and does not restrict the application of Section 9.11 in any way.

Section 9.11 Remedies. Without prejudice to the rights and remedies otherwise available to any Party, including the right to claim money damages for breach of any provision hereof, any Party may bring an action for specific performance and/or injunctive or other equitable relief (without posting a bond or other security) to enforce or prevent any violations of any provision of this Agreement.
