Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Seller Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify any Indemnified Party for any and all Indemnifiable Damages suffered by such Indemnified Party as a result of or arising out of: (i) any failure by any Group Company to pay any Tax which it is liable to pay (including withholding and paying on behalf of another, any penalties, fines or interest in connection with Tax) prior to the Closing; (ii) any Liability attributable to the infringement, violation or misappropriation of any Intellectual Property of any third party by any Group Company prior to the Closing; (iii) any Liability incurred by any PRC Company arising from or in connection with its failure to open housing provident fund accounts or to fully pay the social insurance premiums or housing funds for any of its employees in accordance with applicable laws prior to the Closing; (iv) any failure of any Group Company, other Seller Parties or the Company Representative to comply with the FCPA, the U.K. Bribery Act or any other applicable Compliance Laws; (v) any failure of any Group Company to comply with laws regarding foreign investment restrictions relating to the Business prior to the Closing; (vi) any failure of any Group Company to obtain the consents from any Person or competent Governmental Authority in connection with its human genetic resources related projects, its sharing and dissemination of human genetic resources related materials or information with any foreign entity and its use of Personal Information or any Liability incurred by any Group Company for violation of the agreements to which it is a party in its use of Personal Information; (vii) any failure of any PRC Company to complete the registration and record-filing formalities for the leased properties of any Group Company; (viii) any Losses incurred arising from or in connection with defective or invalid leasehold interests of any property or assets used by any Group Company; and (ix) any action or dispute raised by, or any penalty or governmental orders imposed by, any Person or Governmental Authority against any Group Companies in connection with the Redemption or failure of the Company to complete the Redemption due to reasons attributable to the Seller Parties. Such indemnification shall not be prejudiced by or be otherwise subject to any disclosure (in the Disclosure Schedule or otherwise).

(c) Indemnity Limitations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, absent of fraud, intentional misconduct, intentional misrepresentation or gross negligence on the part of any Seller Party, each Seller Party’s indemnity liabilities are subject to the limitations below:

(1)

the maximum aggregate liability of each of the Seller Parties to each Investor for any indemnification under this Agreement shall not exceed the aggregate amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the respective Purchase Price actually paid by such Investor, and the maximum aggregate liability of each of the Seller Parties to the Additional Investor for any indemnification under this Agreement shall not exceed the aggregate amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Additional Installment actually paid by the Additional Investor.

(2)

the Founders and the BVI Company may elect to satisfy the entirety of their obligations under this Agreement by transferring the Ordinary Shares of the Company in whole or in part held by them to the Indemnified Parties at no cost. If the Founder Parties elect to satisfy their entire obligations under this Agreement by transferring the Ordinary Shares of the Company to the Indemnified Parties at no cost, in no event the assets of the Founders (other than the Ordinary Shares of the Company directly or indirectly held by the Founder) shall be used to indemnify any Indemnifiable Damage.

(3)

any Seller Party is not liable in respect of any Indemnified Party’s claim(s) unless and until the aggregate amount of all the Indemnifiable Damage for which indemnification is sought by any Indemnified Party exceeds, on a cumulative basis, US$100,000 (or its equivalent in foreign currency) (the “Indemnity Basket”); provided that if the aggregate amount of all the Losses exceeds US$100,000, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification for the full amount of such Losses, without regard to the Indemnity Basket.

(4)

to the extent that the matter giving rise to an Indemnified Party’ claim(s) made by an Indemnified Party has been remedied by any Seller Party within certain terms required by such Indemnified Party and to the fully satisfaction of such Indemnified Party, then the Seller Parties shall not be obligated to indemnify such Indemnified Party with respect to such Indemnified Party’ claim(s).

SECTION 8.02 Calculation of Losses.

Each of the Seller Parties agrees that in assessing the amount of damages for a breach of representations and warranties, covenants and agreements under this Agreement, there shall be taken into account that: (i) in calculating the loss or damage that any Investor or the Additional Investor may suffer as a result of any claim made by such Investor or the Additional Investor under this Agreement, any payment made by the Company to reimburse such Investor or the Additional Investor for its losses will in itself diminish the value of such Investor’s or the Additional Investor’s investment in the Company and, accordingly, such payment should be taken into account in calculating such Investor’s or the Additional Investor’s loss or damage; and (ii) the Investors and the Additional Investor shall be entitled to be compensated for, but not limited to, the decrease in value (including loss of bargain) of, all the Purchased Shares or Ordinary Shares arising from conversion thereof held by the Investors and the Additional Purchased Shares held by the Additional Investor, as a result of any material inaccuracy or breach of representations and warranties, covenants and agreements or breach of any other provision of this Agreement.

SECTION 8.03 Rights Cumulative; Specific Performance.

Each and all of the various rights, powers and remedies of a party hereto will be considered to be cumulative with and in addition to any other rights, powers and remedies which such Party may have at Law or in equity in the event of the breach of any of the terms of this Agreement. The exercise or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy will neither constitute the exclusive election thereof nor the waiver of any other right, power or remedy available to such Party. Without limiting the foregoing, the Parties hereto acknowledge and agree irreparable harm may occur for which money damages would not be an adequate remedy in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to injunction to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

SECTION 8.04 Governing Law.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed exclusively in accordance with the laws of the Hong Kong without regard to principles of conflicts of law thereunder.

SECTION 8.05 Survival.

The representations, warranties and covenants of the Seller Parties contained in this Agreement shall survive after the Closing and shall in no way be affected by any investigation made by any party hereto and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Investors or the Additional Investor shall be liable for any losses, liabilities, obligations, responsibilities or debts, whether contractual or otherwise, or any Taxes or any other undertakings of any Seller Party or any Affiliate of any Seller Party incurred from or arose out of or as a result of events which happened before the Closing.

SECTION 8.06 Successors and Assigns.

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators of the parties hereto whose rights or obligations hereunder are affected by such amendments. This Agreement and the rights and obligations therein may not be assigned by the Seller Parties without the written consent of the Investors and the Additional Investor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Investors and the Additional Investor may assign the rights and obligations under this Agreement to its Affiliates without any form of consent of the other Parties, and the Company and other Parties hereto shall facilitate to effectuate such assignment upon such Investor’s and the Additional Investor’s request, provided that (i) such transfer is made in accordance with the Shareholders Agreement, and (ii) such successor shall not be the Competitor of the Group Companies and shall have obtained all necessary approval, authorization or consent with any Governmental Authority which are required to be obtained or made in connection with its shareholding in the Company.

SECTION 8.09 Amendments and Waivers.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) only with the written consent of the Party against whom such waiver is sought.

SECTION 8.10 No Waiver.

Failure to insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms, covenants, or conditions hereof will not be deemed a waiver of such term, covenant, or condition, nor will any waiver or relinquishment of, or failure to insist upon strict compliance with, any right, power or remedy power hereunder at any one time or more times be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of such right, power or remedy at any other time or times.

SECTION 8.11 Delays or Omissions.

No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any Seller Party, any Investor or the Additional Investor, upon any breach or default of any party hereto under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such Seller Party, such Investor or the Additional Investor, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of any similar breach of default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any Seller Party, any Investor or the Additional Investor of any breach or default under this Agreement or any waiver on the part of any Seller Party, any Investor or the Additional Investor of any provisions or conditions of this Agreement, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing. All remedies, either under this Agreement, or by law or otherwise afforded to the Seller Parties, the Investors and the Additional Investor shall be cumulative and not alternative.

SECTION 8.12 Finder’s Fees.

Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Schedule, each party represents and warrants to the other party hereto that it has retained no finder or broker in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and/or the other Transaction Documents and hereby agrees to indemnify and to hold harmless the other party hereto from and against any liability for any commission or compensation in the nature of a finder’s fee of any broker or other person or firm (and the costs and expenses of defending against such liability or asserted liability) for which the indemnifying party or any of its employees or representatives are responsible.

SECTION 8.13 Interpretation; Titles and Subtitles.

This Agreement shall be construed according to its fair language. The rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in interpreting this Agreement. The titles of the sections and subsections of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in construing this Agreement. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all references to Sections and Exhibits herein are to Sections and Exhibits of this Agreement. As used in this Agreement, the words “include” and “including”, and variations thereof, shall not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”.

SECTION 8.14 Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed (including electronic signature) in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument.

SECTION 8.15 Severability.

If any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable, then such provision shall be construed, to the extent feasible, so as to render the provision enforceable and to provide for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby on substantially the same terms as originally set forth herein, and if no feasible interpretation would save such provision, it shall be severed from the remainder of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect unless the severed provision is essential to the rights or benefits intended by the parties. In such event, the parties shall use best efforts to negotiate, in good faith, a substitute, valid and enforceable provision or agreement which most nearly effects the parties’ intent in entering into this Agreement.

SECTION 8.16 Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure.

The parties hereto agree to be bound by the confidentiality and non-disclosure provisions of Section 10 of the Shareholders Agreement, which shall mutatis mutandis apply.

SECTION 8.17 Further Assurances.

SECTION 8.18 Dispute Resolution.

The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the HKIAC Administered Arbitration Rules in force at the time of the initiation of the arbitration, which rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this subsection (b).

SECTION 8.19 Expenses.

In the event that the Closing occurs or the Closing does not successfully occur for reasons not attributable to the Investors, the Company shall reimburse the Investors’ reasonable costs and expenses for legal, financial and other due diligence activities and negotiation and documentations incurred by the Investors in connection with the transactions contemplated hereunder, subject to such caps as agreed separately with each Investor (if applicable). For the avoidance of doubt, the rights of each Investor to be reimbursed of the fees and expenses under this Section are several and not joint, and if an Investor does not consummate the Closing for reasons attributable to itself, other Investors fulfilling the Closing shall be entitled to the reimbursement.

SECTION 8.20 Termination.

This Agreement may be terminated prior to the Closing as between the Company on one hand and any Investor on the other hand (i) by mutual written consent of the Company and such Investor, (ii) by such Investor if the Closing has not occurred within ninety (90) days after the signing of this Agreement, or (iii) by such Investor, by written notice to the Company if there has been a material misrepresentation or material breach of a covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement on the part of any Seller Party, provided that, any termination of this Agreement as between the Company on the one hand and any Investor on the other hand in accordance with any of the items (i) through (iii) above shall not impact the continuing validity of this Agreement being in full force and effect as between the Company on the one hand and any other Investor on the other hand.

If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.20 or Section 5.11, then this Agreement shall have no further effect, provided that, no Party hereto shall be relieved of any liability for a breach of this Agreement or for any misrepresentation hereunder, nor shall such termination be deemed to constitute a waiver of any available remedy (including specific performance if available) for any such breach or misrepresentation; provided further that, the provisions of Section 5.05, Section 5.20, Section 8.01, Section 8.03, Section 8.04, Section 8.07, Section 8.15, Section 8.17, Section 8.18, Section 8.20 and Section 8.21 shall survive the expiration or early termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 8.21 Independent Nature of Investors’ and the Additional Investor’s Obligations and Rights.

The obligations of each of the Investors and the Additional Investor under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are several and not joint, and no Investor or the Additional Investor is responsible in any way for the performance or conduct of any other Investor or the Additional Investor in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Investor or the Additional Investor pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be or shall be deemed to constitute a partnership, association, joint venture, or joint group with respect to the Investors or the Additional Investor. Each of the Investors and the Additional Investor agrees that no other Investor or the Additional Investor has acted as an agent for such Investor or the Additional Investor in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

SECTION 8.22 Press Releases.

None of the Parties hereto shall issue a press release or make any public announcement or other public disclosure with respect to any of the transactions contemplated herein, including the name of the Investors and the Additional Investor, or any of their respective Affiliates, without obtaining the prior written consent of the Investors or the Additional Investor, or use the name or logo of the Investors or the Additional Investor, or any of their respective Affiliates without obtaining in each instance the prior written consent of the Investors or the Additional Investor.
