The date upon which the Closing actually occurs is referred to herein as the "Closing Date".

Section 2.3 Effective Time. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, as early as practicable on the Closing Date, the Parent Parties and the Company shall cause the Merger to be consummated under the Cayman Companies Law by executing and filing the Plan of Merger in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Plan of Merger") with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands (the "Registrar of Companies"), together with such other appropriate documents, in such forms as are required by, and executed in accordance with, the applicable provisions of the Cayman Companies Law (the time of filing of the Plan of Merger by the Registrar of Companies, or such later time as may be agreed in writing by the Parent Parties and the Company and specified in the Plan of Merger, being referred to herein as the "Effective Time").

Section 2.4 Effect of the Merger. At the Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as provided in this Agreement and in the applicable provisions of the Cayman Companies Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at the Effective Time, except as otherwise provided herein, all the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Company, and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Company in accordance with the provisions of the Cayman Companies Law.

Section 2.5 Company Memorandum and Articles of Association. At the Effective Time, subject to Section 6.12 hereof, the Company shall adopt the memorandum and articles of association of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, as the memorandum and articles of association of the Surviving Company, save and except that (a) all references to the name "New Summit Limited (新峰有限公司)" shall be amended to " Qihoo 360 Technology Co.

Article III
Effect of Merger on Issued Share Capital; Merger Consideration; Exchange of Certificates

Section 3.1 Share Capital. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Parent Parties, the Company or the holders of any of the following securities, the following shall occur:

(a) Share Capital of Merger Sub. Each ordinary share, par value $1.00 per share, in the share capital of Merger Sub that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable ordinary share of the Surviving Company. Such conversion shall be effected by means of the cancellation of each such ordinary shares of Merger Sub, in exchange for the right to receive one such ordinary share of the Surviving Company.

(b) Company Shares and ADSs. Each Company Share (including Company Shares represented by ADSs) that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Excluded Shares) shall be canceled and cease to exist in exchange for the right to receive $51.33 in cash without interest (the "Per Share Merger Consideration"), payable in the manner provided in Section 3.2 (or in the case of a Company Share represented by a lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, upon delivery of an affidavit in the manner provided in Section 3.4). For the avoidance of doubt, because each ADS represents 1 1/2 Class A Shares, each ADS that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than ADSs that represent Excluded Shares) shall represent the right to surrender the ADS in exchange for $77.00 in cash without interest (the "Per ADS Merger Consideration") subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and in the Deposit Agreement. The register of members of the Company shall be amended accordingly.

(c) Cancellation of Certain Shares. Each Excluded Share other than Dissenting Shares shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange therefor and the register of members of the Company shall be amended accordingly.

(d) Certain Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Per Share Merger Consideration and/or the Per ADS Merger Consideration, as applicable, shall be equitably adjusted to reflect the effect of any share split, reverse share split, share dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Company Shares), reclassification, combination, exchange of shares, change or readjustment in the ratio of Company Shares represented by each ADS or other like change with respect to Company Shares occurring, or with a record date, on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time, and such adjustment to the Per Share Merger Consideration and/or the Per ADS Merger Consideration, as applicable, shall provide to the holders of Company Shares (including Company Shares represented by ADSs) the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such action.

(e) Statutory Dissenters Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any Company Shares that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and are held by a holder of Company Shares (each, a "Dissenting Shareholder") who has validly exercised and not withdrawn or lost its right to dissent from the Merger ("Dissenter Rights") pursuant to Section 238 of the Cayman Companies Law (collectively, the "Dissenting Shares") shall be cancelled and cease to exist, but shall not be converted into or exchangeable for or represent the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration (except as provided in this Section 3.1(e)), and each such Dissenting Shareholder shall be entitled only to payment of the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with Section 238 of the Cayman Companies Law. If any Dissenting Shareholder shall have effectively withdrawn (in accordance with the Cayman Companies Law) or lost the right to dissent, then as of the later of the Effective Time or the occurrence of such event, the Dissenting Shareholder shall, in respect of its Dissenting Shares cancelled at the Effective Time, be entitled to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration (without interest), pursuant to this Section 3.1. The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt notice of any written notice of exercise of Dissenter Rights, attempted withdrawals of such Dissenter Rights, and any other instruments served pursuant to applicable Law that are received by the Company relating to Company shareholders' exercise of Dissenter Rights and (ii) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to the exercise of Dissenter Rights under the Cayman Companies Law. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, voluntarily make any payment with respect to any exercise of Dissenter Rights, offer to settle or settle any such Dissenter Rights or approve any withdrawal of any such Dissenter Rights prior to the vote on the Merger at the Company Shareholders Meeting.

(f) Company Options and Company Restricted Shares.

(i) Equity Award Waivers. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any necessary waivers, consents or releases, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent, from holders of Company Options and other equity awards under the Company Share Plans and take all such other actions, without incurring any liabilities in connection therewith, as may be necessary to give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Section 3.1(f). As promptly as practicable following the date of this Agreement and in any event prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof administering the Company Share Plans) and the board of directors of each Parent Party shall adopt such resolutions or take such other actions as are necessary to give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Section 3.1(f).

(ii) Vested Company Options. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, each Vested Company Option outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time, with a per share exercise price less than the Per Share Merger Consideration (each, a "Cashed-Out Option"), shall automatically and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the excess of (i) Per Share Merger Consideration over (ii) the exercise price of such Cashed-Out Option, multiplied by the number of Company Shares underlying such Cashed-Out Option (the "Option Consideration"). Each Vested Company Option outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time with a per share exercise price greater than or equal to the Per Share Merger Consideration shall automatically be cancelled as of the Effective time without any consideration payable in respect thereof. As promptly as practicable following the Closing Date, the Surviving Company shall pay (or cause to be paid on its behalf) to each holder of a Cashed-Out Option the aggregate Option Consideration (without interest) payable to such holder of Cashed-Out Options pursuant to this Section 3.1(f)(ii). Such cash consideration shall be rounded down to the nearest cent and the Surviving Company (or such Person(s) making payment on behalf of the Surviving Company) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from such cash consideration all amounts required to be deducted and withheld under applicable Laws. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the Surviving Company (or such Person(s) making payment on behalf of the Surviving Company), such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the Cashed-Out Options with respect to whom such amounts were withheld by the Surviving Company (or such Person(s) making payment on behalf of the Surviving Company).

(iii) Unvested Company Options. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, each Unvested Company Option shall automatically and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, be assumed and converted into an equity incentive award of Parent through the Plan Vehicle, on substantially the same terms and subject to the same vesting conditions, as were provided to such Unvested Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, in accordance with Parent's and the Plan Vehicle's capital structure at Closing, to provide no less favorable economic benefits to the holder of such Unvested Company Option. Any assumption and conversion of an Unvested Company Option shall be done in such a manner as to ensure that the holders thereof do not recognize any additional income tax pursuant to Section 409A of the Code as a result of such assumption and conversion.

(iv) Company Restricted Shares. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, each Company Restricted Share award issued pursuant to the Company Share Plans, that remains outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall automatically and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, be assumed and converted into an equity incentive award of Parent on substantially the same terms and subject to the same vesting conditions as were provided to the Company Restricted Share immediately prior to the Effective Time in accordance with Parent's and the Plan Vehicle's capital structure at Closing, to provide no less favorable economic benefits to the holder of such Company Restricted Share award.

Section 3.2 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Paying Agent. Prior to the Closing, the Parent Parties shall select a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as the paying agent for the Merger (the "Paying Agent") and, in connection therewith, shall enter into an agreement with the Paying Agent in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company.

(b) Exchange Fund. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit (or cause to be deposited) with the Paying Agent, for payment to the holders of Company Shares (including Company Shares represented by ADSs but not including Excluded Shares (other than Dissenting Shares)), pursuant to the provisions of this Article III, an amount of cash equal to the aggregate consideration to which holders of Company Shares (including Company Shares represented by ADSs but not including Excluded Shares (other than Dissenting Shares)) become entitled under this Article III (with respect to Dissenting Shares, an amount equal to the number of Dissenting Shares multiplied by the Per Share Merger Consideration). Until disbursed in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, such funds shall be invested by the Paying Agent, as directed by Parent, in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America or obligations of an agency of the United States of America which are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States of America (such cash amount being referred to herein as the "Exchange Fund"). Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to Parent.

(i) Promptly following the Effective Time, Holdco, Parent, Midco and the Surviving Company shall cause the Paying Agent to mail (or in the case of the Depositary Trust Company, deliver) to each holder of record (as of immediately prior to the Effective Time) of Company Shares, including Company Shares which immediately prior to the Effective Time were (i) represented by a certificate or certificates (the "Certificates") and (ii) not represented by a certificate or certificates (the "Uncertificated Shares") which were cancelled and exchanged into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.1(b), (A) a letter of transmittal in customary form (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Paying Agent), and/or (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the Per Share Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Article III. Upon surrender of Certificates for cancellation to the Paying Agent or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed by Parent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, the holders of the Company Shares represented by such Certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor an amount in cash equal to the product of the number of Company Shares represented by such Certificates multiplied by the Per Share Merger Consideration to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to Section 3.1(b) (less any applicable withholding Taxes payable in respect thereof), and the Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. Upon receipt by the Paying Agent of confirmation by the Company that the Uncertificated Shares have been canceled, the holders of such Uncertificated Shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor an amount in cash equal to the product of the number of such Uncertificated Shares multiplied by the Per Share Merger Consideration to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to Section 3.1(b) (less any applicable withholding Taxes payable in respect thereof). The Paying Agent shall accept such Certificates and such confirmation by the Company with respect to the Uncertificated Shares upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Paying Agent may impose to effect an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with normal exchange practices. No interest shall be paid or accrued for the benefit of holders of the Company Shares represented by the Certificates and the holders of such Uncertificated Shares on the aggregate Per Share Merger Consideration payable upon the surrender of such Certificates and cancellation of Uncertificated Shares pursuant to this Section 3.2. Until so surrendered, outstanding Certificates shall be deemed from and after the Effective Time, to evidence only the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product of the number of Company Shares represented by such Certificates multiplied by the Per Share Merger Consideration, without interest thereon, payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Article III.

(ii) Prior to the Effective Time, the Parent Parties and the Company shall establish procedures with the Paying Agent and the Depositary to ensure that (x) the Paying Agent will transmit to the Depositary promptly following the Effective Time an amount in cash in immediately available funds equal to the product of (1) the number of ADSs issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (2) the Per ADS Merger Consideration and (y) the Depositary will distribute the Per ADS Merger Consideration to ADS holders upon surrender by them of the ADSs. Pursuant to the Deposit Agreement, the ADS holders will pay any applicable fees, charges and expenses of the Depositary and government charges (including withholding Taxes if any) due to or incurred by the Depositary in connection with the cancellation of the ADSs surrendered and distribution of the aggregate Per ADS Merger Consideration to ADS holders. No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable in respect of the ADSs.

(d) Transfers of Ownership. In the event that a transfer of ownership of Company Shares is not registered in the register of members of the Company, or if the Per Share Merger Consideration is to be paid in a name other than that in which the relevant Company Share is registered in the register of members of the Company, the Per Share Merger Consideration may be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the relevant Company Share is registered in the register of members of the Company only upon delivery of evidence to the satisfaction of Parent (or any agent designated by Parent) of such Person's entitlement to the relevant Company Share and if the Person requesting such payment has paid to the Parent Parties (or any agent designated by Parent) any transfer Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of such Company Shares, or established to the satisfaction of Parent (or any agent designated by Parent) that such transfer Taxes have been paid or are otherwise not payable.

(e) Required Withholding. Each of the Parent Parties, the Surviving Company, any of its Subsidiaries, the Paying Agent and the Depositary (and any other Person that has a withholding obligation), as applicable, without double counting, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold or cause to be deducted and withheld from any consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Company Shares (including Company Shares represented by ADSs), Company Options or Company Restricted Shares, or other compensation or equity related payments, such amounts as it reasonably determines it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provisions of applicable Tax Laws. In the event that any Parent Party determines that any deduction or withholding is required to be made from any Merger Consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement, such Parent Party shall promptly inform the Company in writing of such determination and consult with the Company in good faith regarding such determination. To the extent that any such amounts are so deducted, withheld and remitted to the applicable Governmental Entity, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid. Parent and Merger Sub have determined that no deduction or withholding is required under any provision of applicable Tax Laws as in effect and as generally interpreted as of the date of this Agreement with respect to the payment of the Per ADS Merger Consideration or the Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to this Article III. Each former holder of Company Shares (including Company Shares represented by ADSs), Company Options or Company Restricted Shares shall be personally responsible for the proper reporting and payment of all Taxes related to any Merger Consideration or amounts paid under Section 3.1(f), as applicable, payable by such holder under this Agreement.

(f) No Liability.

(a) Proxy Statement; Schedule 13E-3.

(i) As promptly as reasonably practicable after the date hereof, the Company, with the assistance of the Parent Parties, shall prepare a proxy statement relating to authorization and approval of this Agreement, the Plan of Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger (such proxy statement, as amended or supplemented, the "Proxy Statement"). The Parent Parties shall furnish all information as the Company may reasonably request in connection with the preparation of the Proxy Statement and shall otherwise assist and cooperate with the Company in the preparation of the Proxy Statement. Subject to and without limiting the rights of the Special Committee and the Company Board to effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to Section 6.4(d), the Proxy Statement shall include the Company Recommendation.

(ii) Schedule 13E-3. Concurrently with the preparation of the Proxy Statement, the Company and the Parent Parties shall jointly prepare and file with the SEC a Schedule 13E-3 with respect to the Merger. The Company and the Parent Parties shall cooperate and consult with each other in preparation of the Schedule 13E-3, including, without limitation, furnishing the information required by the Exchange Act to be set forth in the Schedule 13E-3.

(iii) SEC Comments. The Company, after consultation with and with the assistance of the Parent Parties, shall respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to any comments made by the SEC with respect to the Schedule 13E-3. The Company will advise Parent, as promptly as reasonably practicable after it receives notice thereof, of any request by the SEC for amendment of the Schedule 13E-3 or comments thereon and responses thereto or requests by the SEC for additional information and will as promptly as reasonable practicable supply Parent with copies of all correspondence between the Company or any of the Company Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC or its staff, on the other hand, with respect to the Schedule 13E-3. The Company shall not (i) mail the Proxy Statement, including any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) file the Schedule 13E-3, including any amendments or supplements thereto, (iii) respond to any comments by the SEC, or (iv) file any other required filings, including any amendments or supplements thereto, unless (x) Parent and its counsel have had a reasonable opportunity to review and propose comments on such document or response and (y) the Company has considered in good faith those comments reasonably proposed by Parent and its counsel. As promptly as reasonably practicable after the SEC confirms that it has no further comments to the Schedule 13E-3, the Company shall mail the Proxy Statement and all other proxy materials to the holders of Company Shares and, if necessary in order to comply with applicable securities Laws, after the Proxy Statement shall have been so mailed, promptly circulate amended, supplemental or supplemented proxy material, and, if required in connection therewith, re-solicit proxies.

(iv) Information Supplied. Each of the Parent Parties and the Company agrees, as to it and its respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents or Representatives, that none of the information supplied or to be supplied by any Parent Party or the Company, as applicable, expressly for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement, the Schedule 13E-3 or any other documents filed or to be filed with the SEC in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, will, as of the time such documents (or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto) are mailed to the holders of Company Shares and at the time of the Company Shareholders Meeting or any adjournment thereof, contain any untrue statement of a material fact, or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, provided, however, that no representation, warranty, covenant or agreement is made by the Company with respect to information supplied by any Parent Party expressly for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement, the Schedule 13E-3 or any other documents filed or to be filed with the SEC. If at any time prior to the Effective Time, any event or circumstance relating to the Parent Parties or the Company, or their respective officers or directors, should be discovered which should be set forth in an amendment or a supplement to the Proxy Statement or the Schedule 13E-3 so that such document would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading, the Party discovering such event or circumstance shall promptly inform the other Parties and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such event or circumstance shall be promptly filed with the SEC and disseminated to the shareholders of the Company to the extent required by Law; provided that prior to such filing, the Company and Parent, as the case may be, shall consult with the other Party with respect to such amendment or supplement and shall afford the other Party and their Representatives reasonable opportunity to comment thereon.

(v) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else herein to the contrary, and subject to compliance with the terms of Section 6.4, in connection with any disclosure regarding a Company Adverse Recommendation Change, the Company shall not be required to provide Parent the opportunity to review or comment on (or include comments proposed by Parent in) the Schedule 13E-3 or the Proxy Statement, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any comments thereon or any other filing by the Company with the SEC, with respect to such disclosure.

(b) Shareholders Meeting.

(i) Subject to Section 8.1, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the date on which the SEC confirms that it has no further comments on the Schedule 13E-3, the Company shall (i) take, in accordance with the Cayman Companies Law and the Company Memorandum and Articles, all action necessary to duly call, give notice of, set a record date for and hold an extraordinary general meeting of its shareholders (the "Company Shareholders Meeting"), which shall not be held later than forty (40) days after the date on which the Proxy Statement is mailed to the holders of Company Shares for the purpose of obtaining the Shareholder Approval and (ii) mail or cause to be mailed a letter to the holders of Company Shares, notice of the Company Shareholders Meeting and form of proxy accompanying the Proxy Statement that will be provided to the holders of Company Shares in connection with the solicitation of proxies for use at the Company Shareholders Meeting.

(ii) The Company may recommend the adjournment of the Company Shareholders Meeting to holders of Company Shares to a later date (but in any event no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the End Date), in order to allow reasonable additional time for (A) the filing and mailing of, at the reasonable request of any party hereto, any supplemental or amended disclosure, and (B) such supplemental or amended disclosure to be disseminated and reviewed by the holders of the Company Shares prior to such adjourned meeting.

(iii) Once the Company has established the record date, the Company shall not change such record date or establish a different record date for the Company Shareholders Meeting without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless permitted by this Agreement, required to do so by applicable Law. In the event that the date of the Company Shareholders Meeting as originally called is for any reason adjourned or otherwise delayed, the Company may establish a new record date.

(iv) Unless there has been a Company Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to Section 6.4(d), the Company shall (A) make the Company Recommendation, and (B) take all reasonable lawful action to solicit the Shareholder Approval. The Company shall, upon the reasonable request of Parent, use its commercially reasonable efforts to advise Parent at least on a daily basis on each of the last ten (10) Business Days prior to the date of the Company Shareholders Meeting or any adjournment thereof, as to the aggregate tally of the proxies received by the Company with respect to the Shareholder Approval. Without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the authorization and approval of this Agreement and the Plan of Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Merger) shall be the only matter (other than procedural matters) which the Company shall propose to be acted on by the holders of Company Shares at the Company Shareholders Meeting or any adjournment thereof.

(c) Company Obligations. Subject to the Company's right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(c), the Company's obligations pursuant to this Section 6.2 shall not be affected by the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or communication to the Company or any other Person of any Acquisition Proposal.

Section 6.3 Access to Information; Confidentiality

(b) Confidentiality and Restrictions. With respect to the information disclosed pursuant to Section 6.3(a), the Parties shall comply with, and shall cause their respective Representatives to comply with, all of their respective obligations under the NDAs or any similar confidentiality agreement entered into by any Person to whom the Company, any Company Subsidiary or any Company Representative provides information pursuant to this Section 6.3.

Except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 6.4(b), the Company shall (x) immediately cease any discussions with any person (other than Parent and any Excluded Party) that are ongoing as of the Go-Shop Period End Date and that relate, or may reasonably be expected, to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, and (y) promptly request each person (other than Parent and any Excluded Party) that has heretofore executed a standstill, confidentiality or similar agreement in connection with such person’s consideration of an Acquisition Proposal to return (or if permitted by the applicable agreement, destroy) all information required to be returned (or, if applicable, destroyed) by such person under the terms of the applicable agreement. Except as set forth in Section 6.4(b), immediately after the Go-Shop Period End Date until the Effective Time or, if earlier, the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article VIII, the Company agrees that neither it nor any of the Company Subsidiaries shall, nor shall the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries authorize or permit any of their respective Representatives to, directly or indirectly:

provided that prior to taking any action described in Section 6.4(b)(iii) or Section 6.4(b)(iv) above, the Company Board (or the Special Committee) shall have determined in good faith, based on the information then available and after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel, that such Acquisition Proposal either constitutes a Superior Proposal or is reasonably likely to result in a Superior Proposal.

(c) except as expressly provided by Section 6.4(d) and Section 6.4 (e), neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall:

(ii) cause or permit the Company or any Company Subsidiary to enter into any Alternative Acquisition Agreement.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, at any time prior to obtaining the Shareholder Approval, the Company Board (upon recommendation of the Special Committee) may (x) in response to an Intervening Event, effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change or (y) if the Company has received a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal from any Person that is not withdrawn and that the Company Board (upon recommendation of the Special Committee) concludes in good faith constitutes a Superior Proposal, (i) effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change with respect to such Superior Proposal and/or (ii) authorize the Company to terminate this Agreement to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal, if and only if:

(i) (A) with respect to a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in response to an Intervening Event, the Company Board (or the Special Committee) determines in good faith, after consultation with its independent nationally recognized financial advisor and outside legal counsel, that failure to do so would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Laws, or (B) with respect to a Company Adverse Recommendation Change or a termination of this Agreement to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a breach of this Section 6.4, the Company Board (or the Special Committee) determines in good faith that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal;

(ii) the Company shall have complied with its obligations under this Section 6.4;

(iii) prior to effecting a Company Adverse Recommendation Change or terminating this Agreement to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement in accordance with Section 6.4(d)(y), (A) the Company shall have provided prior written notice to Parent at least five (5) Business Days in advance (the "Notice Period"), to the effect that the Company Board has received a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that is not withdrawn and that the Company Board (upon recommendation of the Special Committee) concludes in good faith constitutes a Superior Proposal and, absent any revision to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company Board has resolved to effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change or terminate this Agreement to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal pursuant to this Section 6.4(d), which notice shall specify the basis for such Company Adverse Recommendation Change or termination of this Agreement, including the identity of the party making the Superior Proposal, the material terms thereof, and (B) prior to effecting such Company Adverse Recommendation Change or terminating this Agreement to enter into such Alternative Acquisition Agreement, the Company shall, and shall cause its financial and legal advisors to, during the Notice Period, (1) provide to Parent and the Parent Representatives any confidential information that has been disclosed to the party making the Superior Proposal and has not been disclosed to Parent or the Parent Representatives, (2) negotiate with Parent and the Parent Representatives in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement, so that such Acquisition Proposal would cease to constitute a Superior Proposal, and (3) permit Parent and the Parent Representatives to make a presentation to the Company Board and the Special Committee regarding this Agreement and any adjustments with respect thereto (to the extent Parent desires to make such presentation); provided that in the event of any material revisions to the Acquisition Proposal that the Company Board has determined to be a Superior Proposal, the Company shall deliver a new written notice to Parent and comply with the requirements of this Section 6.4 (including Section 6.4(d)) with respect to such new written notice; and

(iv) following the end of the Notice Period (and any renewed period thereof), the Company Board (or the Special Committee) shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel), after considering the terms of any proposed amendment or modification to this Agreement and/or the Financing Documents, that (1) with respect to a Company Adverse Recommendation Change, failure to effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change would still reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the directors' fiduciary duties under applicable Laws or (2) with respect to a termination of this Agreement to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, such Acquisition Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal.

(e) Nothing contained in this Section 6.4 shall be deemed to prohibit the Company or the Company Board (or the Special Committee) from complying with its disclosure obligations under applicable Laws, including U.S. federal Law, with regard to an Acquisition Proposal, including taking and disclosing to its shareholders a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2(a) under the Exchange Act (or any similar communication to shareholders); provided that any such disclosure (other than a statement that the Company Board or the Special Committee has received and is currently evaluating such Acquisition Proposal and/or describing the operation of this Agreement with respect thereto, or a "stop, look and listen" communication or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act) shall be deemed to be a Company Adverse Recommendation Change unless the Company Board expressly publicly reaffirms the Company Recommendation within two (2) Business Days following any request by Parent.

(f) Following the Go-Shop Period End Date, the Company shall promptly (and, in any event, within 24 hours) notify Parent if any proposals or offers with respect to an Acquisition Proposal are received by, any non-public information is requested from, or any discussions or negotiations are sought to be initiated or continued with, the Company, the Company Board or any Company Representative indicating, in connection with such notice, the identity of the Person or group of Persons making such offer or proposal, the material terms and conditions of any proposals or offers (including, if applicable, copies of any written proposals or offers, including proposed agreements) and thereafter shall keep Parent reasonably informed, on a reasonably current basis (at least every two Business Days), of the status and terms of any such proposals or offers (including any amendments thereto that are material in any respect) and the status of any such discussions or negotiations.

(g) In the event any Company Representative takes any action which, if taken by the Company, would constitute a breach of this Section 6.4, then the Company shall be deemed to be in breach of this Section 6.4.

Section 6.5 Commercially Reasonable Efforts.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including Section 6.4, the Parent Parties shall use (and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to use) their respective reasonable best efforts, and the Company shall use (and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries to use) commercially reasonable efforts, to take or cause to be taken all actions and do or cause to be done all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its respective part under this Agreement and applicable Laws to cause the conditions set forth in Article VII to be satisfied and to consummate and make effective the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby as soon as practicable, including preparing and filing as promptly as practicable all documentation to effect all necessary notices, reports and other filings and to obtain as promptly as practicable all consents, approvals, registrations, authorizations, waivers, Permits and Orders, including the PRC Required Approvals, necessary to be obtained from any Third Party and/or any Governmental Entity in order to consummate the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided that all obligations of the Company and the Parent Parties relating to the Financing shall be governed exclusively by Section 6.6 and Section 6.7, and not this Section 6.5, and for the avoidance of doubt, no action permitted to be taken pursuant to Section 6.1 or Section 6.4 hereof shall be prohibited by this sentence. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.5(a), the Parent Parties shall prepare and make all filings and submit all written materials, to the relevant PRC Governmental Entities, in each case, as promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement and as may be reasonably necessary, proper or advisable for the obtaining of each of the PRC Required Approvals.

(b) Each of Parent and the Company shall, upon request by the other, furnish the other with all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries, directors, officers and shareholders and such other matters as may be reasonably necessary in connection with any statement, filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries to any Third Party and/or any Governmental Entity in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby. Subject to applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information, Parent and the Company shall have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable each will consult with the other on and consider in good faith the views of the other in connection with, all of the information relating to Parent or the Company, as the case may be, and any of their respective Subsidiaries and Representatives, that appears in any filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any Third Party and/or any Governmental Entity in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, provided, however, that such materials may be redacted (i) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Company, (ii) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements, and (iii) as necessary to address reasonable privilege and confidentiality concerns. In exercising the foregoing rights, each of the Company and Parent shall act reasonably and as promptly as practicable.

(c) Subject to applicable Laws and the instructions of any Governmental Entity, the Company and Parent each shall keep the other apprised of the status of matters relating to the completion of the transactions contemplated hereby, including (i) the obtaining of the PRC Required Approvals and (ii) promptly furnishing the other with copies of notices or other communications received by Parent or any Parent Representative, or the Company or any Company Subsidiary or Company Representative, as the case may be, from any Third Party and/or any Governmental Entity with respect to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby. Neither the Company nor Parent shall permit any of its officers or any of its other Representatives to participate in any meeting with any Governmental Entity in respect of any filings related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, investigation or other inquiry unless it consults with the other Party in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Entity, gives the other Party the opportunity to attend and participate thereat.

(d) In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the Parties contained in Section 6.5(a) through Section 6.5(c), if any objections are asserted with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby under any Law or if any Action is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by any applicable Governmental Entity or any private party challenging any of the transactions contemplated hereby as violation of any Law or which would otherwise prevent, materially impede or materially delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, each Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to vigorously contest, resist and otherwise resolve any such objections or Actions, and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any Order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents or restricts consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement so as to permit consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Company or any of its Affiliates be required to pay any material amount (other than the payment of filing fees and fees of counsel).

Section 6.6 Financing.

(a) The Parent Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to arrange (or cause to be arranged) the Financing on the terms and conditions described in the Financing Commitments in a timely manner including using reasonable best efforts to (i) negotiate (or cause to be negotiated) definitive agreements (the "Financing Agreements") with respect thereto on the terms and conditions contained therein, (ii) satisfy (or cause to be satisfied) on a timely basis all conditions applicable to any of the Parent Parties in the Financing Agreements that are within their control and (iii) consummate (or cause to consummated) the Financing contemplated by the Financing Commitments at Closing.

(b) If any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions contemplated in the Debt Financing Commitments or the definitive agreements with respect thereto (the "Debt Financing Agreements"), the Parent Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to arrange (or cause to be arranged) to obtain alternative financing, including from alternate sources, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event (and in any event not later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the End Date), on terms and conditions not materially less favorable, in the aggregate, and from the standpoint of the Company, to the Parent Parties and the applicable borrowers than those contained in the Debt Financing Commitments, the Debt Financing Agreements and any related Fee Letter and in an amount at least equal to the Debt Financing or such unavailable portion thereof, as the case may be (the "Alternate Debt Financing"), and to obtain a new financing commitment letter with respect to such Alternate Debt Financing (the "New Debt Financing Commitment") which shall replace the existing Debt Financing Commitments; provided that none of the Parent Parties or the applicable borrowers shall be required to execute any New Debt Financing Commitment or arrange for such Alternate Debt Financing on terms and conditions (including flex provisions) which are materially less favorable, in the aggregate, to the Parent Parties and the applicable borrowers than those included in the Debt Financing Commitments and the Debt Financing Agreements, that such New Debt Financing Commitment is replacing. In the event any New Debt Financing Commitment is obtained, (A) any reference in this Agreement to the "Debt Financing" shall mean the debt financing contemplated by the Debt Financing Commitments as modified pursuant to clause (B) below, (B) any reference in this Agreement to the "Financing Commitments" or the "Debt Financing Commitments" shall be deemed to include the Debt Financing Commitments that are not superseded by a New Debt Financing Commitment at the time in question and the New Debt Financing Commitment to the extent then in effect and (C) any reference in this Agreement to "Fee Letter" shall be deemed to include any fee letter relating to the Debt Financing Commitments that are not superseded by a New Debt Financing Commitment at the time in question and the New Debt Financing Commitments to the extent then in effect.

(c) None of the Parent Parties shall agree to or permit any amendments or modifications to, or grant any waivers of, any condition or other provision under the Financing Commitments or Financing Agreements without the prior written consent of the Company if such amendments, modifications or waivers would (i) reduce the aggregate amount of the Financing (it being understood that the Debt Financing or the Equity Financing may be reduced so long as the Equity Financing or the Debt Financing is increased by a corresponding amount) or (ii) impose new or additional conditions to the Financing or otherwise expand, amend or modify to the Financing in a manner that would reasonably be expected to (A) prevent or materially delay the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby by any Parent Party, or (B) adversely impact in any material respect the ability of the Parent Parties to enforce their rights against the other parties to the Financing Commitments or Financing Agreements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, none of the Parent Parties shall release or consent to the termination of the obligations of the Financing Sources under the Financing Commitments or Financing Agreements except as expressly contemplated hereby.

(d) Each Parent Party acknowledges and agrees that the obtaining of the Financing (including any Alternative Debt Financing) is not a condition to the Closing, and reaffirms its obligation to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, irrespective and independent of the availability of the Financing, subject to the applicable conditions set forth in Article VII and the requirements of Section 2.2.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, nothing contained in this Section 6.6 shall require, and in no event shall the reasonable best efforts of any Parent Party be deemed or construed to require, any Parent Party to (i) bring (or cause to be brought) any enforcement action against any source of the Debt Financing to enforce its respective rights under the Debt Financing Commitments or Debt Financing Agreements or (ii) pay (or cause to be paid) any fees in excess of, or agree to "market flex" provisions less favorable to any Parent Party, the applicable borrowers, or the Surviving Company (or any of their Affiliates) than, those contemplated by the Debt Financing Commitments or Debt Financing Agreements (whether to secure waiver of any conditions contained therein or otherwise).

Section 6.7 Financing Assistance. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall, and shall cause each Company Subsidiary to, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Company Representatives to, provide such cooperation as may be reasonably requested by Parent and Merger Sub and the applicable borrowers under the Debt Financing Commitments in connection with the arrangement of the Financing, including:

(a) participating in a reasonable number of meetings, presentations, due diligence sessions with the Debt Financing Sources;

(b) to the extent customary and in accordance with applicable Law, facilitate the providing of guarantees and granting of a security interest (and perfection thereof) in and pledge of collateral and assist in the preparation of, and executing and delivering at the Closing, any definitive documents for the Debt Financing, including any credit agreements, indentures, notes, security documents, guarantees, mortgages, certificates, and other definitive agreements, documents or instruments related to the Debt Financing, if applicable and as may be reasonably requested by Parent; provided that no such definitive documents shall be effective until the Effective Time;

(c) using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a certificate of the chief financial officer or person performing similar functions of the Company with respect to solvency matters to the extent reasonably required by the Debt Financing Sources or the Debt Financing Commitment, provided that such documents will not take effect until the Effective Time;

(d) arranging for customary payoff letters, lien terminations and instruments of discharge to be delivered at or prior to Closing relating to all Indebtedness to be paid off, discharged and terminated on the Closing Date;

(e) furnishing Parent, the applicable borrowers and their financing sources as promptly as reasonable practicable with financial and other pertinent information regarding the Company and the Company Subsidiaries as may be reasonably requested by Parent, including all financial statements and projections and other pertinent information required by the Debt Financing Commitments or as otherwise required in connection with the Debt Financing and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including information relating to the Company and Company Subsidiaries customary for the placement, arrangement and/or syndication of loans or distribution of debt contemplated by the Debt Financing Commitments to assist in preparation of customary offering or information documents or rating agency or lender or investor presentations relating to such placement, arrangement and/or syndication of loans);

(f) taking all actions reasonably necessary to (i) permit the Debt Financing Sources to evaluate the Company's and the Company Subsidiaries' current assets, cash management and accounting systems, policies and procedures relating thereto for the purpose of establishing collateral arrangements and (ii) establish bank and other accounts and blocked account agreements and lock box arrangements in connection with the foregoing; provided that such accounts, agreements and arrangements shall not become active or take effect until the Effective Time; and

(g) furnishing Parent, the applicable borrowers and their Financing sources promptly with all documentation and other information required by Governmental Entities with respect to the Financing under applicable "know your customer" and anti-money laundering rules and regulations.

Nothing in this Section 6.7 shall require such cooperation to the extent it would require the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries to (i) to pay any commitment or other similar fee prior to the Effective Time, (ii) to incur any expense unless such expense is reimbursed by Parent promptly after incurrence thereof (it being understood, however, the Company shall bear all costs and expenses of its annual audit), (iii) to take, or commit to taking, any action that is not contingent upon the Closing or would subject it to actual or potential liability prior to the Effective Time, or (iv) to be an issuer or other obligor with respect to any Financing prior to the Effective Time. Parent shall, promptly upon request by the Company, reimburse (or cause the applicable borrowers to reimburse) the Company for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries in connection with the cooperation of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries contemplated by this Section 6.7 and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Company Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives from and against any and all liabilities or losses suffered or incurred by any of them in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing and any information used in connection therewith (except with respect to any information provided by or on behalf of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries), except in the event such liabilities or losses arose out of or result from the willful misconduct of the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives.

From and after the date of this Agreement until the earlier to occur of the Effective Time or termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, each of the Company and Parent shall promptly notify the other orally and in writing of (a) the occurrence, or non-occurrence, of any event that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to cause any condition to the obligations of any Party to effect the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, not to be satisfied, (b) any Action commenced or, to any Party's Knowledge, threatened against, such Party or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or otherwise relating to, involving or affecting such Party or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, in each case in connection with, arising from or otherwise relating to the Merger or any other transaction contemplated hereby (the "Transaction Litigation"), or (c) the failure of any such Party to comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it pursuant to this Agreement which, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to result in any condition to the obligations of any Party to effect the Merger not to be satisfied; provided, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 6.8 shall not cure any breach of any representation or warranty requiring disclosure of such matter prior to the date of this Agreement or otherwise limit or affect the remedies available hereunder to any Party, provided, further, that failure to give prompt notice pursuant to this Section 6.8 shall not constitute a failure of a condition set forth in Article VII except to the extent that the underlying fact or circumstance, the occurrence or non-occurrence of the event, or failure to comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement not so notified would, standing alone, constitute such a failure.

Section 6.9 Transaction Litigation. The Company and Parent shall give each other the opportunity to participate in the defense, settlement and/or prosecution of any Transaction Litigation; provided that neither the Company nor the Parent shall compromise, settle, come to an arrangement regarding or agree to compromise, settle or come to an arrangement regarding any Transaction Litigation or consent to the same without the other Party's prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(ii) if (x) the Company Board or any committee thereof shall have effected a Company Adverse Recommendation Change, or (y) the Company Board shall have approved or recommended, or entered into or allowed the Company or any Company Subsidiary to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement.

(e) Notice of Termination. The Party desiring to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1 (other than under Section 8.1(a)) shall give written notice of such termination to the other Parties specifying the provision or provisions of this Section 8.1 pursuant to which such termination is purportedly effected.

Section 8.2 Effect of Termination; Termination Fee.

(a) Effect of Termination Generally. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 8.2, in the event of a termination of this Agreement by either the Company or Parent as provided in Section 8.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of any Parent Party or the Company or their respective officers, directors or Affiliates; provided that the provisions of this Section 8.2, Section 6.3(b), Section 6.10, Article IX and the NDAs shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any Party (or any member of the Parent Group or Company Group) be liable for punitive damages.

(ii) by the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(iii); or

(iii) by either Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(b), if (A) at or prior to the termination of this Agreement, a Third Party shall have delivered to the Company Board a bona fide Acquisition Proposal (provided that for purposes of this Section 8.2(b)(iii), all references to "20%" in the definition of "Acquisition Proposal" shall be deemed to references to "50%") and such Acquisition Proposal shall not have been withdrawn prior to the termination of this Agreement (such Acquisition Proposal, the "Outstanding Proposal"), and (B) within twelve (12) months after the termination of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated by the Outstanding Proposal are consummated,

then, subject to Section 8.2(f), Tianjin Qisi Technology Co., Ltd. (天津奇思科技有限公司), a Company Subsidiary established in the PRC, shall pay, and the Company shall cause Tianjin Qisi Technology Co., Ltd. (天津奇思科技有限公司) to pay, an amount equal to RMB1,442,250,000 (the "Company Termination Fee") by wire transfer of immediately available funds in RMB to one or more accounts designated by Parent (or its designee) promptly, but in any event (x) within five (5) Business Days after the date of such termination in the case of a termination referred to in clause (i), (y) concurrently with such termination in the case of a termination referred to in clause (ii) or (z) concurrently with the consummation of the transactions contemplated under the Outstanding Proposal referred to in clause (iii), by wire transfer of immediately available funds to one or more accounts designated by Parent. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Company be obligated to pay, or cause to be paid, the Company Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) in the event that this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(iii) or by Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(ii), in each case in connection with an Acquisition Proposal received by the Company on or before the Go-Shop Period End Date, the “Company Termination Fee” shall mean a fee in the amount of RMB641,000,000.

(c) Parent Termination Fee. In the event that this Agreement is validly terminated (i) (A) by the Company or by any Parent Party in accordance with Section 8.1(b)(i), (B) the Company has not breached in any material respect any of its covenants or other agreements hereunder such that the condition to Closing set forth in Section 7.1(c) would not be satisfied, and (C) all conditions to Closing (other than the condition to Closing set forth in Section 7.1(c) and other than those that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing) have been satisfied or waived except for the condition set forth in Section 7.1(c), (ii) (A) by the Company or by any Parent Party in accordance with Section 8.1(b)(ii)(x), (B) the Company has not breached in any material respect any of its covenants or other agreements hereunder such that the closing condition set forth in Section 7.1(b)(x) would not be satisfied, and (C) all conditions to Closing (other than the condition to Closing set forth in Section 7.1(b) and other than those that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing) have been satisfied or waived or (iii) by the Company in accordance with Section 8.1(c)(i) or Section 8.1(c)(ii), then, subject to Section 8.2(e), Parent shall promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after the date of such termination, pay or cause to be paid to Tianjin Qisi Technology CO., Ltd. (天津奇思科技有限公司), a Company Subsidiary established in the PRC (“Designated Company Recipient”), by wire transfer of immediately available funds in RMB to one or more accounts of the Designated Company Recipient designated by the Company, the Parent Termination Fee. “Parent Termination Fee” means, (x) in the case of Section 8.2(c)(i) or Section 8.2(c)(ii), an amount equal to RMB641,000,000, and (y) in the case of Section 8.2(c)(iii), an amount equal to RMB2,884,500,000. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall Parent be required to pay the Parent Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

(d) Acknowledgement. Each Party acknowledges that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 8.2 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement, (ii) the damages resulting from termination of this Agreement under circumstances where a Company Termination Fee or Parent Termination Fee is payable are uncertain and incapable of accurate calculation and therefore, the amounts payable pursuant to Section 8.2(b) and Section 8.2(c) are not a penalty but rather constitute liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate the Parent Parties or the Company, as the case may be, for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and (iii) without the agreements contained in this Section 8.2, the Parties would not have entered into this Agreement.

(e) Limitations on Liabilities of Parent Group.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Financing Commitments or the Limited Guarantees, in the event that the Parent Parties fail to effect the Closing when required pursuant to Section 2.2 for any reason or no reason or they otherwise breach this Agreement (whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise) or otherwise fail to perform hereunder (whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise), then, except for an order of specific performance as and only to the extent expressly permitted by Section 9.6, the Company's termination of this Agreement and receipt of the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.2(c) and the guarantee of such obligations pursuant to the Limited Guarantees (subject to their terms, conditions and limitations), shall be the sole and exclusive remedy (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise) of the Company, the Company Subsidiaries and all members of the Company Group (as defined below) against (A) any Parent Party or the Guarantors, (B) the former, current and future holders of any equity, partnership or limited liability company interest, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, Affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners, shareholders, assignees of any Parent Party or any Guarantor, (C) any lender or prospective lender, lead arranger, arranger, agent or representative of or to any Parent Party or any Guarantor or (D) any holders or future holders of any equity, stock, partnership or limited liability company interest, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, Affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners, shareholders, assignees of any of the foregoing (clauses (A) through (D), collectively, the "Parent Group"), for any loss or damage suffered as a result of any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement (whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise) or failure to perform hereunder (whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise) or other failure of the Merger to be consummated (whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise). For the avoidance of doubt, neither any Parent Party nor any member of the Parent Group shall have any liability for monetary damages of any kind or nature or arising in any circumstance in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Financing Commitments and the Limited Guarantees) other than the payment of the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.2(c), and in no event shall any of the Company, the Company Subsidiaries, the direct or indirect shareholders of the Company or any other Person, or any of their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, members, managers, partners, representatives, advisors or agents of the foregoing, (collectively, the "Company Group") seek, or permit to be sought, on behalf of any member of the Company Group, any monetary damages from any member of the Parent Group in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Financing Commitments and the Limited Guarantees), other than (without duplication) from Parent to the extent provided in Section 8.2(c) or the Guarantors to the extent provided in the Limited Guarantees. Without limiting the rights of the Company against the Parent Parties hereunder, in no event shall the Company, any Company Subsidiary, or any of its Affiliates, and the Company agrees not to and to cause any Company Subsidiary or Affiliate not to, seek to enforce this Agreement against, make any claims for breach of this Agreement against, or seek to recover monetary damages from, any member of the Parent Group (other than any payment from the Guarantors to the extent set forth in the Limited Guarantees or the payment of the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.2(c)). In no event shall the Company or any member of the Company Group be entitled to seek the remedy of specific performance of this Agreement other than as specifically set forth in Section 9.6. For the avoidance of doubt, while the Company may pursue both a grant of specific performance as and only to the extent expressly permitted by Section 9.6 and the payment of the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.2(c), under no circumstances shall the Company (or any member of the Company Group or any other Person) be permitted or entitled to receive both such grant of specific performance and payment of the Parent Termination Fee (or any other money damages).

(ii) The Company agrees to cause any Action (whether such Action is being prosecuted by the Company or any other member of the Company Group) pending against any Parent Party or any member of the Parent Group to be dismissed with prejudice at such time as, in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Financing Commitments), Parent pays the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.2(c). Upon payment of the Parent Termination Fee, no Person shall have any rights (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise) against any member of the Parent Group and no member of the Parent Group shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Financing Commitments and the Limited Guarantees). Nothing in this Section 8.2 shall in any way expand or be deemed to expand the circumstances in which any Parent Party or any other member of the Parent Group may be liable under this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Financing Commitments and the Limited Guarantees).

(iii) The provisions of this Section 8.2(e) are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each member of the Parent Group.

(f) Limitations on Liabilities of Company Group.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Company pays the Company Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.2(b), then any such payment shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Parent Group against the Company Group and none of the members of Company Group shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or the failure of the Merger to be consummated.

(ii) Parent agrees to cause any Action (whether such Action is being prosecuted by Parent or any other member of the Parent Group) pending against the Company or any member of the Company Group to be dismissed with prejudice at such time as, in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, the Company pays the Company Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.2(b).

(iii) The provisions of this Section 8.2(f) are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each member of the Company Group.

Section 8.3 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, the Parties may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and, in the case of the Company upon the approval of the Special Committee, subject to Section 8.4, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other Parties, (b) waive any breach or inaccuracy in the representations and warranties contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto or (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein; provided that after receipt of the Shareholder Approval, there may not be any extension or waiver of this Agreement which decreases the Per Share Merger Consideration or Per ADS Merger Consideration or which adversely affects the rights of the holders of Company Shares hereunder without the approval of such holders of Company Shares. Any agreement on the part of a Party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of such Party. The failure of any Party to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of those rights.

Section 8.4 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the Parties by action taken by or on behalf of their respective Boards of Directors at any time prior to the Effective Time; provided that the Company may only take such action with the approval of the Special Committee; provided, further that after receipt of the Shareholder Approval, no amendment that, by Law or in accordance with the rules of any relevant stock exchange, requires further approval by the holders of Company Shares may be made without such further approval having been obtained. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by Parent and the Company.

Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, all fees and expenses incurred in connection herewith and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the Party incurring such expenses, whether or not the Merger is consummated.

Section 9.4 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the greatest extent possible.

Section 9.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the Exhibits, Company Disclosure Schedule, Parent Disclosure Schedule and the other documents delivered pursuant hereto), the Financing Commitments, the Limited Guarantees, the Escrow Agreements and any other documents contemplated thereby and the NDAs constitute the entire agreement of the Parties and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, between the Parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, that the NDAs shall not be superseded, shall survive any termination of this Agreement and shall continue in full force and effect until the date on which the NDAs expire in accordance with their respective term or are validly terminated by the parties thereto.

Section 9.6 Specific Performance

(a) The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed by the Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and that, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.6(b), each Party shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms and provisions hereof (including the Parties' obligation to consummate the Merger, subject in each case to the terms and conditions of this Agreement), including an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement by any Party, in addition to any other remedy at law or equity. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.6(b), each Party hereby waives (i) any defenses in any action for specific performance, including the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate and (ii) any requirement under any Law to post a bond or other security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief. If any Party brings any Action to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof by any other Party, the End Date shall automatically be extended by (x) the amount of time during which such Action is pending, plus twenty (20) Business Days or (y) such other time period established by the applicable court presiding over such Action.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Parties further acknowledge and agree that the right of the Company, or any member of the Company Group, to obtain an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief to cause the Parent Parties to cause the Equity Financing to be funded at the Effective Time, shall be subject to the satisfaction of each of the following conditions: (A) the Parent Parties are required to consummate the Closing pursuant to Section 2.2, (B) the Debt Financing (and any Alternate Debt Financing, if applicable) has been funded or the lenders party to the Debt Financing Commitment have irrevocably confirmed in writing that all conditions to funding of the Debt Financing Commitment have been satisfied (other than funding of the Equity Financing) and the Debt Financing will be funded in accordance with the terms of the Debt Financing Commitment or the Debt Financing Agreements (and any New Debt Financing Commitment, if applicable) at the Effective Time if the Equity Financing is funded at the Effective Time, (C) the Company has irrevocably confirmed in writing that if the Financing (and any Alternate Debt Financing, if applicable) is funded, then it would take such actions that are within its control to cause the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to occur, and (D) the Equity Financing has not been funded and the Parent Parties have not consummated the Merger. For the avoidance of doubt, in no circumstance other than as expressly contemplated by this Section 9.6(b) shall the Company be entitled under this Agreement to enforce or seek to enforce specifically any Parent Party's right to cause the Equity Financing to be funded if the Debt Financing (or, if applicable, any Alternate Debt Financing) has not been funded (or will not be funded at the Effective Time even if the Equity Financing is funded at the Effective Time).

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the Parent Parties on the one hand and the Company on the other hand, agree that the election to pursue an injunction or other appropriate form of specific performance or equitable relief shall not restrict, impair or otherwise limit the Parent Parties or the Company from, in the alternative, seeking to terminate the Agreement and collect the Company Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.2(b), by Parent on the one hand, or the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.2(c), by the Company on the other hand and (ii) upon the payment of such amounts, the remedy of specific performance shall not be available against the party making such payment and, if such party is a Parent Party, any other member of the Parent Group or, if such party is the Company, any other member of the Company Group.

Section 9.7 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) This Agreement (other than the Cayman Law Matters (as defined below)) and all claims or causes of action (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement (other than the Cayman Law Matters) or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (other than the Cayman Law Matters) (including any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement), shall be interpreted, construed, performed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York without giving effect to its principles or rules of conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of the Laws of another jurisdiction.

(b) The Merger and other matters set forth under Article II and matters relating to the vesting of the undertaking, property and liabilities of Merger Sub in the Surviving Company, the cancellation of the Company Shares (including Company Shares represented by ADSs), the rights provided for in Section 238 of the Cayman Companies Law with respect to any Dissenting Shares, the fiduciary and other duties of the Company Board and the directors of Merger Sub, and internal corporate affairs of the Company and Merger Sub (collectively, the "Cayman Law Matters") (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, shall be interpreted, construed, performed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the Cayman Islands without giving effect to its principles or rules of conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of the Laws of another jurisdiction.

(c) Consent to Jurisdiction. Subject to Section 9.6 and Section 9.7(b), in the event any dispute arises among the Parties out of or in relation to this Agreement, including any dispute regarding its existence, interpretation, performance, breach, termination or validity, the Parties shall attempt in the first instance to resolve such dispute through friendly consultations. If any dispute has not been resolved by friendly consultations within thirty (30) days after any Party has served written notice on the other Parties requesting the commencement of such consultations, then any Party will have the right to demand that the dispute be finally settled by arbitration in accordance with the following provisions of this Section 9.7(c). The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre ("HKIAC") Administered Rules in force when a notice of arbitration is submitted.

The appointing authority shall be the HKIAC. There shall be three (3) arbitrators. One (1) arbitrator shall be nominated by the Company and one (1) arbitrator shall be nominated by Parent. If either the Company or Parent shall abstain from nominating their arbitrator, the HKIAC shall appoint such arbitrator. The two (2) arbitrators so chosen shall select a third (3rd) arbitrator; provided that if such two (2) arbitrators shall fail to choose a third (3rd) arbitrator within thirty (30) days after such two (2) arbitrators have been selected, the HKIAC, upon the request of any Party, shall appoint a third (3rd) arbitrator. The third (3rd) arbitrator shall be the presiding arbitrator. The Parties agree that the arbitration shall be kept confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and any element of it shall not be disclosed beyond the tribunal, the Parties, their legal and professional advisers, and any person necessary for the conduct of the arbitration, unless otherwise required by Law or the Parties hereto otherwise agree in writing. The Parties agree that all documents and evidence submitted in the arbitration (including without limitation any statements of case and any interim or final award, as well as the fact that an arbitral award has been made) shall remain confidential both during and after any final award that is rendered unless otherwise required by Law or the Parties hereto otherwise agree in writing. Upon and after the submission of any dispute to arbitration, the Parties shall continue to exercise their remaining respective rights, and fulfill their remaining respective obligations under this Agreement, except insofar as the same may relate directly to the matters in dispute. The Parties agree that any arbitration award rendered in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.7(c) shall be final and binding upon them, and the Parties further agree that such award may be enforced by any court having jurisdiction over the Party against which the award has been rendered or the assets of such Party wherever the same may be located. In any arbitration proceeding, any legal proceeding to enforce any arbitration award and in any other legal proceeding among the Parties pursuant to or relating to this Agreement, each Party expressly waives the defense of sovereign immunity and any other defense based on the fact or allegation that it is an agency or instrumentality of a sovereign state or is otherwise entitled to immunity.

(d) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARENT PARTIES AND THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY PARENT PARTY OR THE COMPANY IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT HEREOF.

The Parties acknowledge and agree that the rights of third party beneficiaries under Section 3.1, Section 3.6 and Section 6.12 shall not arise unless and until the Effective Time occurs. The Parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claims or causes of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement may only be made against the Persons that are expressly identified as the Parties.

Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the Parties (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other Parties; provided that prior to the Effective Time, the Parent Parties may assign this Agreement (in whole but not in part) to any of their Affiliates. No assignment by any Party shall relieve such Party of any of its obligations hereunder. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Section 9.10 Obligations of Parent and of the Company. Whenever this Agreement requires a Subsidiary of Parent to take any action, such requirement shall be deemed to include an undertaking on the part of Parent to cause such Subsidiary to take such action. Whenever this Agreement requires a Company Subsidiary to take any action, such requirement shall be deemed to include an undertaking on the part of the Company to cause such Subsidiary to take such action and, after the Effective Time, on the part of the Surviving Company to cause such Subsidiary to take such action.
