Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any such claim in which both the Indemnifying Parties, on the one hand, and an Indemnified Party, on the other hand, are, or are reasonably likely to become, parties, such Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel at the Indemnifying Party’s expense if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel to such Indemnified Party, either (i) one or more defenses are available to the Indemnified Party that are not available to the Indemnifying Parties or (ii) a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnifying Parties, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Party, on the other hand, that would make such separate representation advisable. Each of the Indemnifying Parties agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the relevant Indemnified Party, settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim relating to the matters contemplated hereby (if any Indemnified Party is a party thereto or has been actually threatened to be made a party

thereto) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liability arising or that may arise out of such claim. The Indemnified Party shall not settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment without the consent of the Indemnifying Party.

10.4.

Exclusive Remedy. The sole and exclusive remedy the Indemnified Parties have with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Section 10; provided that nothing in this Section shall restrict or limit any rights that any Indemnified Party may have to seek injunctive relief or specific performance.

10.5.

Limitations. The maximum aggregate liability of the Indemnifying Parties under this Section 10 shall not exceed the Subscription Price the Investors actually paid to the Company. The Indemnifying Parties shall have no liability under this Section 10 until the aggregate amount of Losses incurred by the Indemnified Parties exceeds US$500,000, in which case the Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification of the amount of the Losses exceeding US$500,000.

10.6.

Payment. At the absolute discretion of the Indemnified Parties, all claims asserted hereunder against the Indemnifying Parties shall be settled by cash or by shares of the Company, if applicable. Any allotment or issuance by the Company hereunder shall be grossed up and shall not have any dilutive effect on the Investors with reference to the then valuation of the Company as determined in good faith by an international investment bank jointly selected by the Indemnifying Parties and the Indemnified Parties.

No delay or omission in exercising any right, power or remedy accruing to any party hereto, upon any breach or default of any other party hereto under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such party nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of any similar breach or 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 party of any breach or default under this Agreement or any waiver 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.

If any claim is made by a party relating to any conflict, omission or ambiguity in the provisions of this Agreement, no presumption or burden of proof or persuasion will be implied because this Agreement was prepared by or at the request of any party or its counsel.

11.11.

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 that most nearly effects the parties’ intent in entering into this Agreement.

12.	DISPUTE RESOLUTION.

12.1.

Dispute Resolution.

(a)

Any dispute, controversy or claim (each, a “Dispute”) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the interpretation, breach, termination or validity hereof, shall be resolved at the first instance through consultation between the parties to such Dispute. Such consultation shall begin immediately after any party has delivered written notice to any other party to the Dispute requesting such consultation.

(b)

If the Dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days following the date on which such notice is given, the Dispute shall be submitted to arbitration upon the request of any party to the Dispute with notice to each other party to the Dispute (the “Arbitration Notice”).

(c)

The arbitration shall be conducted in Hong Kong under the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre Administered Arbitration Rules in force when the Arbitration Notice is submitted in accordance with the said Rules. There shall be three (3) arbitrators appointed in accordance with the Arbitration Rules below.

(d)

The arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in English. The arbitration tribunal shall apply the Arbitration Rules of the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law, as in effect at the time of the commencement of the arbitration.

(e)

Each party to the arbitration shall cooperate with each other party to the arbitration in making full disclosure of and providing complete access to all information and documents requested by such other party in connection with such arbitration proceedings, subject only to any confidentiality obligations binding on such party.

(f)

The arbitrator shall decide any dispute submitted by the parties to the arbitration tribunal strictly in accordance with the substantive laws of Hong Kong and shall not apply any other substantive law.

(g)

Any party to the Dispute shall be entitled to seek preliminary injunctive relief, if possible, from any court of competent jurisdiction pending the constitution of the arbitral tribunal.

(h)

The parties to this Agreement agree to the consolidation of arbitrations under the Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section12.

(1)

In the event of two or more arbitrations having been commenced under any of the Transaction Documents, the tribunal in the arbitration first filed (the “Principal Tribunal”) may in its sole discretion, upon the application of any party to the arbitrations, order that the proceedings be consolidated before the Principal Tribunal if (1) there are issues of fact and/or law common to the arbitrations, (2) the interests of justice and efficiency would be served by such a consolidation, and (3) no prejudice would be caused to any party in any material respect as a result of such consolidation, whether through undue delay or otherwise. Such application shall be made as soon as practicable and the party making such application shall give notice to the other parties to the arbitrations.

(2)

The Principal Tribunal shall be empowered to (but shall not be obliged to) order at its discretion, after inviting written (and where desired oral) representations from the parties that all or any of such arbitrations shall be consolidated or heard together and/or that the arbitrations be heard immediately after another and shall establish a procedure accordingly. All parties shall take such steps as are necessary to give effect and force to any orders of the Principal Tribunal.

(3)

If the Principal Tribunal makes an order for consolidation, it: (1) shall thereafter, to the exclusion of other arbitral tribunals, have jurisdiction to resolve all disputes forming part of the consolidation order; (2) shall order that notice of the consolidation order and its effect be given immediately to any arbitrators already appointed in relation to the disputes that were consolidated under the consolidation order; and (3) may also give such directions as it considers appropriate (i) to give effect to the consolidation and make provision for any costs which may result from it (including costs in any arbitration rendered functus officio under Section12); and (ii) to ensure the proper organization of the arbitration proceedings and that all the issues between the parties are properly formulated and resolved.

(4)

Upon the making of the consolidation order, any appointment of arbitrators relating to arbitrations that have been consolidated by the Principal Tribunal (except for the appointment of the arbitrator of the Principal Tribunal itself) shall for all purposes cease to have effect and such arbitrators are deemed to be

functus officio, on and from the date of the consolidation order. Such cessation is without prejudice to (1) the validity of any acts done or orders made by such arbitrators before termination, (2) such arbitrators’ entitlement to be paid their proper fees and disbursements and (3) the date when any claim or defense was raised for the purpose of applying any limitation period or any like rule or provision.

(5)

The Parties hereby waive any objections they may have as to the validity and/or enforcement of any arbitral awards made by the Principal Tribunal following the consolidation of disputes or arbitral proceedings in accordance with this Section 12 where such objections are based solely on the fact that consolidation of the same has occurred.

(i)

During the course of the arbitration tribunal’s adjudication of the dispute, this Agreement shall continue to be performed except with respect to the part in dispute and under adjudication.

(j)

The award of the arbitration tribunal shall be final and binding upon the parties, and the prevailing party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for enforcement of such award.
