11. Exercise of power to purchase Shares or securities that may be exchanged for or converted to Shares

(1) Purchase of Shares

(a) Subject to the provisions set forth below and the provision of the Statute, the Company shall have the power to purchase its Ordinary Shares, including any securities that may be exchanged for or converted to Shares and redeemable Shares in such manner and on such terms as the Directors may determine and agree with the relevant Member, which shall include, without limitation, the purchase of Shares (or securities that may be exchanged for or converted to Shares) through private negotiations or at market prices through any stock exchange on which such Shares are listed.

(b) Notwithstanding (a) above, if the Board in its absolute and unfettered discretion, on behalf of the Company, determines that ownership of Class A Ordinary Shares (or any securities that may be exchanged for or converted to Class A Ordinary Shares) of the Company by any Member (1) would violate the ownership limitations described in Article 11(1)(c) or (2) would result in an increased risk of adverse tax, regulatory or legal consequences to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of the Members; the Company will have the option, but not the obligation, subject to Statute to purchase all or part of the Class A Ordinary Shares (or any securities that may be exchanged for or converted to Shares) of the Company held by such Member (to the extent the Board, in the reasonable exercise of its discretion, determines it is necessary to avoid or cure such adverse consequences) with funds available therefor in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of such Shares on the date the Company sends the Repurchase Notice referred to below (the “Repurchase Price”); provided, that the Board will use reasonable efforts to exercise this option equally among similarly situated Persons (to the extent possible under the circumstances). In that event, the Company will also be entitled to assign its purchase right to a third party or parties including one or more of the other Persons, with the consent of such assignee. Each Member shall be bound by the determination by the Company to purchase or assign its right to purchase such Member’s Shares (or securities that may be exchanged for or converted to Shares) and, if so required by the Company, shall sell the number of Shares (or securities that may be exchanged for or converted to Shares) of the Company that the Company requires it to sell.

(c) The ownership limitations described in this Article 11(1)(c) are as follows: except upon unanimous consent by the Board (i) no Person shall be allowed to acquire Class A Ordinary Shares (or securities that may be exchanged for or converted to Shares) if such acquisition would cause any Person to own (directly, indirectly or constructively under applicable U.S. tax attribution and

constructive ownership rules) 9.9% or more of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares; and (ii) no Person shall be allowed to acquire Class A Ordinary Shares if such acquisition would cause such Person to own directly 9.9% or more of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares.

(d) In the event that the Company or its assignee(s) determines to purchase any such Shares (or securities that may be exchanged for or converted to Shares) subject to this Article 11, the Company shall provide each Person concerned with written notice of such determination (a “Repurchase Notice”) at least seven (7) calendar days prior to such purchase or such shorter period as each such Person may authorise, specifying the date on which any such Shares are to be purchased and the Repurchase Price. The Company may revoke the Repurchase Notice at any time before it (or its assignee(s)) pays for the Shares (or securities that may be exchanged for or converted to Shares). Neither the Company nor its assignee(s) shall be obliged to give general notice to the Members of any intention to purchase or the conclusion of any purchase of Shares (or securities that may be exchanged for or converted to Shares) of the Company. Payment of the Repurchase Price by the Company or its assignee(s) shall be by wire transfer or certified check and made at a closing to be held no less than seven (7) calendar days, unless such Person agrees to a shorter period, after receipt of the Repurchase Notice by the Member.

(2) Subject to the provisions of the Statute and to this Article 11 and to Article 55, the Company may issue Shares that are to be redeemed or are liable to be redeemed at the option of the Member or the Company.

(3) The Company may make a payment in respect of the redemption or purchase of its own Shares (or securities that may be exchanged for or converted to Shares) in any manner permitted by the Statute, including out of capital.

12. Election of Directors

(1) The Board shall be elected annually for a term of appointment that shall end at the conclusion of the annual general meeting following the one at which they were appointed. The Board shall consist of not less than five (5) and not more than twenty-one (21) Directors, the exact number to be determined from time to time by resolution adopted by the affirmative vote of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66-2/3%) of the Directors then in office; provided, however, that if no such resolution shall be in effect the number of Directors shall be five (5) Directors. Any increase in the size of the Board pursuant to this Article 12(1) shall be deemed to be a vacancy and may be filled in accordance with Article 16 hereof. Directors shall be elected, except in the case of a vacancy (as provided for in Article 15 or 16, as the case may be), by the Members in the manner set forth in paragraph (2) of this Article 12 at an annual general meeting or any extraordinary general meeting called for the purpose.

(2) Subject to the terms of any class or series of Shares issued by the Company, no Person shall, unless recommended by the Board or a committee thereof, be eligible for election as a Director at any general meeting unless not less than 120 days before the date appointed for the meeting there shall have been lodged at the Company notice in writing signed by not less than 10 Members holding Shares representing at least 50% of the voting rights attached to all of the issued and outstanding Shares entitled to vote at the meeting for which such notice is given of their intention to propose such person for election and also notice in writing signed by the person to be proposed of his or her willingness to be elected. Each such notice shall also include (i) the names and addresses, as they appear in the Register of Members, of the Members who intend to make the nomination and of the person or persons to be nominated, (ii) a representation that the Members are holders of record of Shares entitled to vote at such meeting and intend to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to nominate the person or persons specified in the notice, (iii) the class and number of Shares which are beneficially owned by the Members, (iv) a description of all arrangements or understandings between the Members and each nominee and any

other Person or Persons in respect of whom nominations are to be made by the Members and (v) such other information regarding each nominee proposed by such Members as would be required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act, whether or not the Company is then subject to such regulation. Such notice must be accompanied by a written consent of each proposed nominee to being named as a nominee and to serve as a Director if elected. The chairman of the meeting may refuse to acknowledge the nomination of any person not made in compliance with the foregoing procedure.

(2) A Member of unsound mind, or in respect of whom an order has been made by any court, having jurisdiction in lunacy, may vote, whether on a show of hands or on a poll, by his committee, receiver, curator bonis, or other person on such Member’s behalf appointed by that court, and any such committee, receiver, curator bonis or other person may vote by proxy.

(3) No person shall be entitled to vote at any general meeting or at any separate meeting of the holders of a class of Shares unless he is registered as a Member on the record date for such meeting.

(4) No objection shall be raised to the qualification of any voter except at the general meeting or adjourned general meeting at which the vote objected to is given or tendered and every vote not disallowed at the meeting shall be valid. Any objection made in due time shall be referred to the chairman whose decision shall be final and conclusive.

(5) On a poll or on a show of hands votes may be cast either personally or by proxy. A Member may appoint more than one proxy or the same proxy under one or more instruments to attend and vote at a meeting. Where a Member appoints more than one proxy the instrument of proxy shall state which proxy is entitled to vote on a show of hands.

(6) A Member holding more than one Share need not cast the votes in respect of his Shares in the same way on any resolution and therefore may vote a Share or some or all such Shares either for or against a resolution and/or abstain from voting a Share or some or all of the Shares and, subject to the terms of the instrument appointing him, a proxy appointed under one or more instruments may vote a Share or some or all of the Shares in respect of which he is appointed either for or against a resolution and/or abstain from voting.

50. Instrument of proxy

(1) Every Member entitled to vote has the right to do so either in person or by one or more Persons authorised by a written proxy executed and delivered in accordance with these Articles. The instrument appointing a proxy shall be in writing under the hand of the appointor or of his or her attorney authorised by him or her in writing or, if the appointor is a corporation, either under its seal or under the hand of an officer, attorney or other person authorised to sign the same.

(2) Any Member may appoint one or more Persons a standing proxy or (if a corporation) a standing representative by depositing at the registered office for the time being of the Company, or at such place or places as the Board may otherwise specify for the purpose, a proxy or (if a corporation) a written authorisation. Such proxy or authorisation shall be valid for all general meetings and adjournments thereof or, resolutions in writing, as the case may be, until notice of revocation is received at the registered office for the time being of the Company, or at such place or places as the Board may otherwise specify for the purpose. Where a standing proxy or authorisation exists, its operation shall be deemed to have been suspended at any general meeting or adjournment thereof at which the Member is present or in respect to which the Member has specially appointed a proxy or representative. The Board may from time to time require such evidence as it shall deem necessary as to the due execution and continuing validity of any such standing proxy or authorisation and the operation of any such standing proxy or authorisation shall be deemed to be suspended until such time as the Board determines that it has received the requested evidence or other evidence satisfactory to it. A Person so authorised as a representative of a corporation shall be entitled to exercise the same power on behalf of the grantor of the authority as the grantor could exercise if it were an individual Member and the grantor shall for the purposes of these Articles be deemed to be present in person at any such meeting if the Person so authorised is present at the meeting.

(3) Subject to paragraph (2) of this Article 50, the instrument appointing a proxy together with such other evidence as to its due execution as the Board may from time to time require shall be delivered at the registered office for the time being of the Company (or at such place or places as may be specified in the notice convening the meeting or in any notice of any adjournment or, in either case or the case of a written resolution, in any document sent therewith) not less than 24 hours or such other period as the Board may determine, prior to the holding of the relevant meeting or adjourned meeting at which the individual named in the instrument proposes to vote or, in the case of a poll taken subsequently to the date of a meeting or adjourned meeting, before the time appointed for the taking of the poll and in default the instrument of proxy shall not be treated as valid.

(4) Instruments of proxy shall be in any common form or other form as the Board may approve and the Board may, if it thinks fit, send out with the notice of any meeting forms of instruments of proxy for use at that meeting. The instrument of proxy shall be deemed to confer authority to demand or join in demanding a poll or amendment of a resolution put to the meeting for which it is given as the proxy thinks fit. The instrument of proxy shall unless the contrary is stated therein be valid as well for any adjournment of the meeting as for the meeting to which it relates.

(5) A vote given in accordance with the terms of an instrument of proxy shall be valid notwithstanding the previous death or unsoundness of mind of the principal, or revocation of the instrument of proxy or of the authority under which it was executed, provided, that no intimation in writing of such death, insanity or revocation shall have been received by the Company at the registered office for the time being of the Company (or such other place as may be specified for the delivery of instruments of proxy in the notice convening the meeting or other documents sent therewith) at least one hour before the commencement of the meeting or adjourned meeting, or the taking of the poll at which the instrument of proxy is used.

51. Representation of corporations at meetings

A corporation which is a Member may, by written instrument, authorise one or more Persons as it thinks fit to act as its representative at any meeting of the Members and the Person or Persons so authorised shall be entitled to exercise the same powers on behalf of the corporation which such Person or Persons represent as that corporation could exercise if it were an individual Member. Such corporation shall for the purposes of these Articles be deemed to be present in person at any such meeting if a Person so authorised is present at the meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the chairman of the meeting may accept such assurances as he or she thinks fit as to the right of any Person to attend and vote at general meetings on behalf of a corporation which is a Member.

52. [Reserved]

SHARE CAPITAL AND SHARES

53. Rights of Shares

(1) Upon adoption of these Articles, the share capital of the Company shall consist of 125,000,000 Ordinary Shares, par value US$0.10 divided into 100,000,000 Class A Ordinary Shares and 25,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares and 50,000,000 Preferred Shares, par value of US$0.10 each

(2) Subject to the provisions of Articles 12(3), 43(2), 43(3) and 54(1)-(4) (as well as the additional restrictions and rights of the Class B Ordinary Shares set forth in Schedule A hereto), each Class A Ordinary Share shall be entitled to one vote per Class A Ordinary Share. The Class B Ordinary Shares rights and restrictions are set forth in Schedule A to these Articles, but otherwise the holders of all Ordinary Shares shall:

(a) be entitled to share equally Share for Share in Dividends (whether payable in cash, property or securities of the Company) as the Board may from time to time declare;

(b) in the event of a winding-up or dissolution of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary or for the purpose of an amalgamation, reorganisation or otherwise or upon any distribution of share capital and surplus to share equally and ratably in the assets of the Company, if any, remaining after the payment of all debts and liabilities of the Company and the liquidation preference of any issued and outstanding Preferred Shares; and

(3) The Board is authorised, subject to limitations prescribed by law, to issue Preferred Shares in classes or series, to establish from time to time the number of Preferred Shares to be included in each such class or series, and to fix the designation, powers, preferences redemption provisions, restrictions and

rights to the Preferred Shares of each such class or series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof. The terms of any class or series of Preferred Shares shall be set forth in a Certificate of Designation in the minutes of the Board authorising the issuance of such Preferred Shares and such Certificate of Designations shall be attached as an exhibit to these Articles, but shall not form part of these Articles, and may be examined by any Member on request. The rights attaching to any Ordinary Share or other Share shall be deemed not to be altered by the allotment of any Preferred Share even if such Preferred Share does or will rank in priority for payment of a Dividend or in respect of capital or surplus or which confer on the holder thereof voting rights more favourable than those conferred by such Ordinary Share and shall not otherwise be deemed to be altered by the creation or issue of further Shares ranking pari passu therewith.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article, the restrictions of this Article 55(3) shall not apply to the issuance of shares to a Person acting as an underwriter in the ordinary course of its business, Depositary Trust Company, Cede & Co., a brokerage firm holding shares on behalf of its client or any other entity performing a similar function.

(4) The authority of the Board with respect to each class or series of Preferred Shares shall include, but not be limited to, determination of the following:

(a) the number of Preferred Shares constituting that class or series and the distinctive designation of that class or series;

(b) the rate of Dividend, and whether (and if so, on what terms and conditions) Dividends shall be cumulative (and if so, whether unpaid dividends shall compound or accrue interest) or shall be payable in preference or in any other relation to the Dividends payable on any other class or classes of Shares or any other class or series of the Preferred Shares;

(c) whether that class or series shall have voting rights in addition to the voting rights provided by law and, if so, the terms and extent of such voting rights, provided that if the Preferred Shares shall have voting rights, such Preferred Shares shall be included in the number of Voting Shares of the Company held by any Person for the purposes of Article 53(2) hereof;

(d) whether such Preferred Shares may be redeemed and, if so, the terms and conditions on which they may be redeemed (including, without limitation, the dates upon or after which they may be redeemed and the price or prices at which they may be redeemed, which price or prices may be different in different circumstances or at different redemption dates);

(e) whether such Preferred Shares shall be issued with the privilege of conversion or exchange and, if so, the terms and conditions of such conversion or exchange (including, without limitation the price or prices or the rate or rates of conversion or exchange or any terms for adjustment thereof);

(f) the amounts, if any, payable upon such Preferred Shares in the event of voluntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company in preference of Shares of any other class or series and whether such Preferred Shares shall be entitled to participate generally in distributions on the Ordinary Shares under such circumstances; and

(g) any other relative rights, preferences, limitations and powers of that class or series.

(5) The rights attaching to any Preferred Shares, or any class or series of Preferred Shares, shall be deemed not to be altered by the allotment of any other class or series of Preferred Shares even if such class or series does or will rank in priority for payment of a Dividend or in respect of capital or surplus or which confer on the holder thereof voting rights more favourable than those conferred by such existing Preferred Shares or class or series of Preferred Shares and shall not otherwise be deemed to be altered by the creation or issue of further Shares ranking pari passu therewith.

54. Limitation on voting rights of Controlled Shares.

(1) General. Subject to the provisions of Articles 12(3), 43(2), 43(3), and 54(1)-(4) (as well as the additional restrictions and rights of the Class B Ordinary Shares set forth in Schedule A hereto), and subject to any rights and restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of Shares, every Member and every Person representing a Member by proxy shall have one vote for each Class A Ordinary Share carrying the right to vote on the matter in question of which such Member or such Person representing a Member by proxy is the holder. Notwithstanding any other provisions of these Articles, all determinations in these Articles that are made by or subject to a vote or approval of Members shall be based upon the voting power of such Members’ Shares as determined pursuant to Articles 12(3), 43(3), and 54(1)-(4) (as well as the additional restrictions and rights of the Class B Ordinary Shares set forth in Schedule A hereto).

(2) Adjustment of voting power. Except upon unanimous consent of the Board, the voting power of each Class A Ordinary Share and each Class B Ordinary Share is hereby adjusted (and shall be automatically adjusted in the future) to the extent necessary so that no Person is a 9.9% Member (as defined below). This Article 54 shall be applied prior to the application of Article 12(3). The Board shall implement the foregoing in the manner provided herein.

The Board shall from time to time, including prior to any time at which a vote of Members is taken, take all reasonable steps necessary to ascertain through communications with Members or otherwise, whether there exists, or will exist at the time any vote of Members is taken, a Tentative 9.9% Member (as defined below).

In the event that a Tentative 9.9% Member exists, the aggregate votes conferred by the Class A Ordinary Shares and/or Class B Ordinary Shares held by a Member and treated as Controlled Shares of that Tentative 9.9% Member shall be reduced to the extent necessary such that the Controlled Shares of the Tentative 9.9% Member will constitute less than 9.9% of the Total Voting Power. In applying the previous sentence where Class A Ordinary Shares and/or Class B Ordinary Shares held by more than one Member are treated as Controlled Shares of a Tentative 9.9% Member, the reduction in votes shall apply to such Members holding Class A Ordinary Shares in descending order according to their respective Attribution Percentages (as defined below) and then to such Members holding Class B Ordinary Shares, provided that, in the event of a tie, the reduction shall apply first to the Member whose Shares are Controlled Shares of the Tentative 9.9% Member by virtue of the Tentative 9.9% Member’s economic interest in (as opposed to voting control with respect to) such Ordinary Shares. The votes attributable to Class A Ordinary Shares and/or Class B Ordinary Shares of Members owning no Class A Ordinary Shares and/or Class B Ordinary Shares treated as Controlled Shares of any Tentative 9.9% Member shall, in the aggregate, be increased by the same number of votes subject to reduction as described above. Such increase shall apply to all such Members in proportion to their voting power at that time, provided that such increase shall be limited to the extent necessary to avoid causing any person to be a 9.9% Member. The adjustments of voting power described in this Article shall apply repeatedly until there would be no 9.9% Member. The Board may deviate from any of the principles described in this Article and determine that Class A Ordinary Shares and/or Class B Ordinary Shares held by a Member shall carry different voting rights as it determines appropriate (1) to avoid the existence of any 9.9% Member or (2) to avoid

adverse tax, legal or regulatory consequences to the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company, or any other Member or its Affiliates. For the avoidance of doubt, in applying the provisions of Articles 12(3), 43(2), 43(3), and 54(1)-(4), a Class A Ordinary Share and/or Class B Ordinary Share may carry a fraction of a vote.

“Attribution Percentage” shall mean, with respect to a Member and a Tentative 9.9% Member, the percentage of the Member’s Shares that are treated as Controlled Shares of such Tentative 9.9% Member.

“Controlled Shares” in reference to any Person or Member means all Ordinary Shares of the Company owned by such Person or Member either (i) directly, (ii) by application of the attribution and constructive ownership rules under Section 958 of the Code, or (iii) beneficially within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

“9.9% Member” means a Person whose Controlled Shares constitute nine and nine-tenths percent (9.9%) or more of the voting power of all Ordinary Shares of the Company and who would be generally required to recognize income with respect to the Company under Section 951(a)(1) of the Code if the Company were a controlled foreign corporation as defined in Section 957 of the Code and if the ownership threshold under Section 951(b) of the Code were 9.9%.

“Tentative 9.9% Member” means a Person that, but for adjustments to the voting rights of Shares pursuant to Article 54(1)-(4), would be a 9.9% Member.

(3) Other adjustments of voting power. In addition to the provisions of Article 54(1), any Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares shall not carry any right to vote to the extent that the Board determines, in its sole discretion, that it is necessary that such Class A Ordinary Shares or Class B Ordinary Shares should not carry the right to vote in order to avoid adverse tax, legal or regulatory consequences to the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company, or any Member, provided that no adjustment pursuant to this sentence shall cause any person to become a 9.9% Member.

(4) Requirement to provide information and Notice.

(a) The Board shall have the authority to request from any Member holding, directly or indirectly, Class A Ordinary Shares, and such Member shall provide, such information as the Board may request for the purpose of determining whether any Member’s voting rights are to be adjusted. If such Member fails to respond to such a request, or submits incomplete or inaccurate information in response to such a request, the Board may in its sole and absolute discretion determine that such Member’s Class A Ordinary Shares shall carry no voting rights in which case such Class A Ordinary Shares shall not carry any voting rights until otherwise determined by the Board in its sole and absolute discretion.

(b) Any Member shall give notice to the Company within ten days following the date that such Member acquires actual knowledge that it is a Tentative 9.9% Member or that its Class A Ordinary Shares or Class B Ordinary Shares are Controlled Shares of a Tentative 9.9% Member.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Member shall be liable to any other Member or the Company for any losses or damages resulting from such Member’s failure to respond to, or submission of incomplete or inaccurate information in response to, a request under paragraph (4)(a) or from such Member’s failure to give notice under paragraph (4)(b) of this Article.

(d) The Board may rely on the information provided by a Member under this Article 54(4) in the satisfaction of its obligations under Article 12(3) and this Article 54.

(e) The Company may, but shall have no obligation to provide notice to any Member of any adjustment to its voting power that may result from the application of Article 43(3), Article 12(3), and/or this Article 54.

(f) One of the purposes of the voting limitation set forth in this Article is to seek to reduce the likelihood that there would be adverse tax consequences to U.S. Persons if the Company were to be characterized as a controlled foreign corporation as defined in the Code. Nevertheless, the Board will not be liable to the Company, its Members or any other Person whatsoever for any errors in judgment made by its interpreting or enforcing this Article or in granting any waiver or waivers to the foregoing restrictions in any case so long as the Board shall have acted in good faith.

55. Power to issue Shares

(1) Subject to the provisions of these Articles and to any rights attaching to issued and outstanding Shares, the unissued Shares (whether forming part of the original share capital or any increased share capital) shall be at the disposal of the Board, which may issue, offer, allot, grant options over, exchange or otherwise dispose of Shares or options warrants or other rights to purchase Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Shares (including any employee benefit plan providing for the issuance of Shares or options, warrants or other rights in respect thereof), at such times, for such consideration and on such terms and conditions as it may determine (including, without limitation, such preferred or other special rights or restrictions with respect to Dividend, voting, liquidation or other rights of the Shares as may be determined by the Board). The Board may issue Shares as a new or existing class or series of Shares.

(2) The Company shall not issue Shares to bearer.

(3) At the discretion of the Board, the Company shall not issue any Shares in a manner that the Board believes would cause, by reason of such issuance, the total Ordinary Shares of any Person to equal or exceed nine and nine-tenths percent (9.9%) of the total of Ordinary Shares of the Company then issued and outstanding.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article, the restrictions of this Article 55(3) shall not apply to any issuance of Shares to a person acting as an underwriter in the ordinary course of its business, purchasing such Shares pursuant to a purchase agreement to which the Company is a party, for resale.

(4) The Board shall, in connection with the issue of any Share, have the power to pay such commission and brokerage as may be permitted by law.

(5) The Company may from time to time do any one or more of the following things:

(a) issue partly paid Shares;

(b) accept from any Member the whole or a part of the amount remaining unpaid on any Shares held by such Member, although no part of that amount has been called up;

(d) issue Shares in fractional denominations and deal with such fractions to the same extent as its whole Shares and Shares in fractional denominations shall have in proportion to the respective fractions represented thereby all of the rights of whole Shares including (but without limiting the generality of the foregoing) the right to vote, to receive Dividends and distributions and to participate in a winding up.

56. Variation of rights and alteration of Share capital

(1) Subject to the provisions of the Statute any Preferred Shares may be issued or converted into Ordinary Shares that, at a determinable date or at the option of the Company, are able to be redeemed on such terms and in such manner as the Company before the issue or conversion may by resolution of the Members determine.

(2) While the share capital is divided into different classes of Shares, the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the Shares of that class) may, whether or not the Company is being wound-up, be varied with the consent in writing of the holders of three-fourths of the issued and outstanding Shares of that class or with the sanction of a Special Resolution cast at a separate general meeting of the holders of the Shares of that class. The rights conferred upon the holders of the Shares of any class issued with preferred or other rights shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue of the Shares of that class, be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further Shares ranking pari passu therewith.

(3) The Company may from time to time by resolution of the Company in general meeting alter the conditions of its Memorandum and accordingly may change the currency denomination of, increase, alter or reduce its share capital in accordance with the provisions of Section 13 of the Statute. Where, on any alteration of share capital, fractions of Shares or some other difficulty would arise, the Board may deal with or resolve the same in such manner as it thinks fit including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the issue to Members, as appropriate, of fractions of Shares and/or arranging for the sale or Transfer of the fractions of Shares of Members.

57. Registered holder of Shares

(1) The Company shall be entitled to treat the registered holder of any Share as the absolute owner thereof and accordingly shall not be bound to recognise any equitable or other claim to, or interest in, such Share on the part of any other person.

(2) Any Dividend, interest or other moneys payable in cash in respect of Shares may be paid by cheque or draft sent through the post directed to the Member at such Member’s address in the Register of Members or, in the case of joint holders, to such address of the holder first named in the Register of Members, or to such person and to such address as the holder or joint holders may in writing direct. If two or more persons are registered as joint holders of any Shares any one can give an effectual receipt for any Dividend paid in respect of such Shares.

58. Death of a joint holder

(1) Where two or more persons are registered as joint holders of a Share or Shares then in the event of the death of any joint holder or holders the remaining joint holder or holders shall be absolutely entitled to the said Share or Shares and the Company shall recognise no claim in respect of the estate of any joint holder except in the case of the last survivor of such joint holders.

(2) The Company may, in so far as the Statute permits, pay a commission to any person in consideration of his subscribing or agreeing to subscribe whether absolutely or conditionally for any Shares of the Company. Such commissions may be satisfied by the payment of cash and/or the issue of fully or partly paid-up Shares. The Company may also on any issue of Shares pay such brokerage as may be lawful.

59. Share certificates

(1) A Member shall only be entitled to a share certificate if the Board resolves that share certificates shall be issued. Share certificates representing Shares, if any, shall be in such form as the Board may determine. Share certificates shall be signed by one or more Directors or other person authorised by the Board. The Board may authorise certificates to be issued with the authorised signature(s) affixed by mechanical process. All certificates for Shares shall be consecutively numbered or otherwise identified and shall specify the Shares to which they relate. All certificates surrendered to the Company for Transfer shall be cancelled and subject to these Articles no new certificate shall be issued until the former certificate representing a like number of relevant Shares shall have been surrendered and cancelled.

(2) The Company shall be under no obligation to complete and deliver a share certificate unless specifically called upon to do so by the person to whom such Shares have been allotted.

(3) The Company shall not be bound to issue more than one certificate for Shares held jointly by more than one person and delivery of a certificate to one joint holder shall be a sufficient delivery to all of them. If a share certificate is defaced, worn out, lost or destroyed, it may be renewed on such terms (if any) as to evidence and indemnity and on the payment of such expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in investigating evidence, as the Board may prescribe, and (in the case of defacement or wearing out) upon delivery of the old certificate.

60. Calls on Shares

(1) Subject to the terms of the allotment, with respect to any Shares which are not fully paid (whether in respect of par value or premium), the Board may from time to time make such calls as it thinks fit upon the Members in respect of any monies unpaid on the Shares allotted to or held by such Members and, if a call is not paid on or before the day appointed for payment thereof, the Member may at the discretion of the Board be liable to pay the Company interest on the amount of such call at such rate as the Board may determine, from the date when such call was payable up to the actual date of payment. The joint holders of any such Share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all calls in respect thereof. A call may be revoked or postponed as the Directors may determine. A call may be required to be paid by instalments. A person upon whom a call is made shall remain liable for calls made upon him notwithstanding the subsequent Transfer of the Shares in respect of which the call was made.

(2) A call shall be deemed to have been made at the time when the resolution of the Directors authorising such call was passed.

(3) An amount payable in respect of a Share on allotment or at any fixed date, whether on account of the par value of the Share or premium or otherwise, shall be deemed to be a call and if it is not paid all the provisions of these Articles shall apply as if that amount had become due and payable by virtue of a call.

(4) The Directors may issue Shares with different terms as to the amount and times of payment of calls, or the interest to be paid.

(5) The Directors may, if they think fit, receive an amount from any Member willing to advance all or any part of the monies uncalled and unpaid upon any Shares held by him, and may (until the amount would otherwise become payable) pay interest at such rate as may be agreed upon between the Directors and the Member paying such amount in advance.

(6) No such amount paid in advance of calls shall entitle the Member paying such amount to any portion of a Dividend declared in respect of any period prior to the date upon which such amount would, but for such payment, become payable.

61. Forfeiture of Shares

(1) If any Member fails to pay, on the day appointed for payment thereof, any call in respect of any Share allotted to or held by such Member, the Board may, at any time thereafter during such time as the call remains unpaid, direct the Secretary to forward to such Member a notice in the form, or as near thereto as circumstances admit, of Form “A” in the Schedule hereto.

(2) If the requirements of such notice are not complied with, any such Share may at any time thereafter before the payment of such call and the interest due in respect thereof be forfeited by a resolution of the Board to that effect. Such forfeiture shall include all Dividends or other monies declared payable in respect of the forfeited Share and not paid before the forfeiture.

(3) A forfeited Share may be sold, re-allotted or otherwise disposed of on such terms and in such manner as the Board thinks fit and at any time before a sale, re-allotment or disposition the forfeiture may be cancelled on such terms as the Board thinks fit. Where for the purposes of its disposal a forfeited Share is to be transferred to any person the Board may authorise some person to execute an instrument of transfer of the Share in favour of that person.

(4) A person any of whose Shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a Member in respect of them and shall surrender to the Company for cancellation the certificate for the Shares forfeited and shall remain liable to pay to the Company all monies which at the date of forfeiture were payable by him to the Company in respect of those Shares together with interest, but his liability shall cease if and when the Company shall have received payment in full of all monies due and payable by him in respect of those Shares.

(5) A certificate in writing under the hand of one Director or officer of the Company that a Share has been forfeited on a specified date shall be conclusive evidence of the fact as against all persons claiming to be entitled to the Share. The certificate shall (subject to the execution of an instrument of transfer) constitute a good title to the Share and the person to whom the Share is disposed of shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, if any, nor shall his title to the Share be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the forfeiture, sale or disposal of the Share.

(6) The provisions of these Articles as to forfeiture shall apply in the case of non-payment of any sum which, by the terms of issue of a Share, becomes payable at a fixed time, whether on account of the par value of the Share or by way of premium as if it had been payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.

REGISTER OF MEMBERS

62. Contents of Register of Members

The Board shall maintain or cause to maintain the Register of Members in accordance with Statute and in particular shall enter therein the following particulars:

(1) the name and address of each Member, the number and, where appropriate, the class of Shares held by such Member;

(2) the date on which each person was entered in the Register of Members; and

(3) the date on which any person ceased to be a Member.

63. Determination of record dates

Notwithstanding any other provision of these Articles, the Board may fix any date as the record date for:

(1) determining the Members entitled to receive any Dividend;

(2) determining the Members entitled to receive notice of and to vote at any general meeting of the Company (and the Board may determine a different record date for any adjournment or postponement thereof);

(3) determining the Members entitled to execute a resolution in writing; and

(4) determining the number of issued and outstanding Shares for or in connection with any purpose.

(5) If the Register of Members is not so closed and no record date is fixed for the determination of Members entitled to notice of, or to vote at, a meeting of Members or Members entitled to receive payment of a Dividend, the date on which notice of the meeting is sent or the date on which the resolution of the Board declaring such Dividend is adopted, as the case may be, shall be the record date for such determination of Members. When a determination of Members entitled to vote at any meeting of Members has been made as provided in this Article, such determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof.

TRANSFER OF SHARES

64. Instrument of transfer

(1) An instrument of transfer shall be in the form or as near thereto as circumstances admit of Form “B” in the Schedule hereto or in such other common form as the Board may accept. Such instrument of transfer shall be signed by or on behalf of the transferor and transferee provided that, in the case of a fully paid Share, the Board may accept the instrument signed by or on behalf of the transferor alone. The transferor shall be deemed to remain the holder of such Share until the same has been transferred to the transferee in the Register of Members.

(2) Shares are freely transferable. However, if a lien exists on the Shares or if, according to the Board’s judgment, such Transfer would result in an increased risk of adverse tax, regulatory or legal consequences to the Company, a Subsidiary of the Company, or a Member of the Company, the Board may refuse to register a Transfer of Shares. If the Board refuses to register a Transfer it shall notify the

transferor and transferee within one month of such refusal. The Board may not refuse to register a transfer of Shares other than as described in this Article 65(3).

65. Restrictions on transfer

(1) Subject to the Statute, this Article 65 and such other of the restrictions contained in these Articles and elsewhere as may be applicable, and except, in the case of any Shares other than the Ordinary Shares, as may otherwise be provided by the terms of the issuance thereof, any Member may sell, assign, Transfer or otherwise dispose of Shares of the Company at the time owned by it and, upon receipt of a duly executed form of transfer in writing, the Board shall, subject to this Article 65 procure the timely registration of the same.

(2) In the event the Board determines that an ownership limitation described in Article 11(1)(c) has been violated as a result of such transfer, the Company shall have the option, but not the obligation, to purchase all or any part of the Class A Ordinary Shares, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable to avoid or cure any adverse or potentially adverse consequences resulting from such transfer. If the Company exercises an option to purchase all or part of the Class A Ordinary Shares held by such Member, the Company shall repurchase the shares at an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of such Class A Ordinary Shares on the date the Company sends the Repurchase Notice.

(3) The Board may, in its absolute and unfettered discretion, decline to register the Transfer of any Shares if the Board has reason to believe (i) that such Transfer may expose the Company, any Subsidiary thereof, any Member or any Person ceding insurance to the Company (if so licensed) or any such Subsidiary (if so licensed) to adverse tax or regulatory treatment in any jurisdiction or (ii) that registration of such Transfer under the Securities Act or under any “blue sky” or other United States state securities laws or under the laws of any other jurisdiction is required and such registration has not been duly effected (provided, however, that in this case (ii) the Board shall be entitled to request and rely on an opinion of counsel to the transferor or the transferee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Board, that no such approval or consent is required and no such violation would occur, and the Board shall not be obligated to register any Transfer absent the receipt of such an opinion).

(4) The registration of Transfers may be suspended at such time and for such periods as the Board may from time to time determine; provided, however, that such registration shall not be suspended for more than forty-five (45) days in any period of three hundred and sixty five (365) consecutive days.

66. Transfers by joint holders

The joint holders of any Share or Shares may Transfer such Share or Shares to one or more of such joint holders, and the surviving holder or holders of any Share or Shares previously held by them jointly with a deceased Member may Transfer any such Share to the executors or administrators of such deceased Member.

67. Lien on Shares

(1) The Company shall have a first and paramount lien and charge on all Shares (whether fully paid-up or not or whether subject to a condition or contingency) registered in the name of a Member (whether solely or jointly with others) for all debts, liabilities or engagements to or with the Company (whether presently payable or not or whether subject to a condition or contingency) by such Member or his or her estate, either alone or jointly with any other Person, whether a Member or not, but the Board may at any time declare any Share to be wholly or in part exempt from the provisions of this Article. The

registration of a Transfer of any such Share shall operate as a waiver of the Company’s lien (if any) thereon. The Company’s lien (if any) on a Share shall extend to all Dividends or other monies payable in respect thereof.

(2) The Company may sell or purchase, in such manner and on such terms (including price) as the Board think fit, any Shares on which the Company has a lien, but no sale or purchase shall be made unless a sum in respect of which the lien exists is then presently payable, nor until the expiration of fourteen days after a notice in writing stating and demanding payment of such part of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is presently payable, has been given to the relevant Member, or the Person, of which the Company has notice, entitled thereto by reason of such Member’s death or bankruptcy. Effective upon such sale or purchase, any certificate representing such Shares prior to such sale shall become null and void, whether or not it was actually delivered to the Company.

(3) To give effect to any such sale the Board may authorise any Person to Transfer the Shares sold to the purchaser thereof. The purchaser shall be registered as the holder of the Shares comprised in any such transfer, and he shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, nor shall his or her title to the Shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the Company’s power of sale under these Articles.

(4) The proceeds of such sale or purchase shall be received by the Company and applied in payment of such part of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is presently payable and the residue, if any, shall (subject to a like lien for sums not presently payable as existed upon the Shares before the sale) be paid to the relevant Member or the Person entitled to the Shares at the date of the sale.

TRANSMISSION OF SHARES

68. Representative of deceased Member

In the case of the death of a Member, the survivor or survivors where the deceased Member was a joint holder, and the legal personal representatives of the deceased Member where the deceased Member was a sole holder, shall be the only persons recognised by the Company as having any title to the deceased Member’s interest in the Shares held by that deceased Member. Nothing herein contained shall release the estate of a deceased joint holder from any liability in respect of any Share which had been jointly held by such deceased Member with other persons. For the purpose of this Article, legal personal representative means the executor or administrator of a deceased Member or such other person as the Board may in its absolute discretion decide as being properly authorised to deal with the Shares of a deceased Member.

69. Registration on death or bankruptcy

(1) Any person becoming entitled to a Share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of any Member may be registered as a Member upon such evidence as the Board may deem sufficient or may elect to nominate some person to be registered as a transferee of such Share, and in such case the person becoming entitled shall execute in favour of such nominee an instrument of Transfer in the form, or as near thereto as circumstances admit, of Form “C” in the Schedule hereto. On the presentation thereof to the Board, accompanied by such evidence as the Board may require to prove the title of the transferor, the transferee shall be registered as a Member but the Board shall, in either case, have the same right to decline or suspend registration as it would have had in the case of a Transfer of the Share by that Member before such Member’s death or bankruptcy, as the case may be.

(2) If the person so becoming entitled shall elect to be registered himself as holder he shall deliver or send to the Company a notice in writing signed by him stating that he so elects.

(3) A person becoming entitled to a Share by reason of the death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution of the holder (or in any other case than by transfer) shall be entitled to the same Dividends and other advantages to which he would be entitled if he were the registered holder of the Share. However, he shall not, before being registered as a Member in respect of the Share, be entitled in respect of it to exercise any right conferred by membership in relation to meetings of the Company and the Board may at any time give notice requiring any such person to elect either to be registered himself or to Transfer the Share. If the notice is not complied with within ninety days the Board may thereafter withhold payment of all Dividends, bonuses or other monies payable in respect of the Share until the requirements of the notice have been complied with.

DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS

70. Declaration of Dividends by the Board

The Board may, subject to any rights or restrictions at the time lawfully attached to any class or series of Shares and subject to these Articles and in accordance with the Statute, declare Dividends and distributions on Shares in issue and authorise payment of the Dividends or distributions out of the funds of the Company lawfully available therefor. No Dividend or distribution shall be paid except out of the realised or unrealised profits of the Company, or out of the share premium account or as otherwise permitted by the Statute.

71. Deduction of amounts due to the Company

(1) The Board may deduct from the Dividends or distributions payable to any Member all sums of money due (if any) from such Member to the Company on account of calls or otherwise.

(2) Except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to Shares, all Dividends shall be declared and paid according to the par value of the Shares that a Member holds. If any Share is issued on terms providing that it shall rank for Dividend as from a particular date, that Share shall rank for Dividend accordingly.

(3) The Board may declare that any Dividend or distribution be paid wholly or partly by the distribution of specific assets and in particular of Shares, debentures, or securities of any other company or in any one or more of such ways and where any difficulty arises in regard to such distribution, the Directors may settle the same as they think expedient and in particular may issue fractional Shares and fix the value for distribution of such specific assets or any part thereof and may determine that cash payments shall be made to any Members upon the basis of the value so fixed in order to adjust the rights of all Members and may vest any such specific assets in trustees as may seem expedient to the Directors.

(4) Any Dividend, distribution, interest or other monies payable in cash in respect of Shares may be paid by wire transfer to the holder or by cheque or warrant sent through the post directed to the registered address of the holder or, in the case of joint holders, to the registered address of the holder who is first named on the Register of Members or to such person and to such address as such holder or joint holders may in writing direct. Every such cheque or warrant shall be made payable to the order of the person to whom it is sent. Any one of two or more joint holders may give effectual receipts for any Dividends, bonuses, or other monies payable in respect of the Share held by them as joint holders.

72. Unclaimed Dividends

Any Dividend which cannot be paid to a Member and/or which remains unclaimed after six months from the date of declaration of such Dividend may, in the discretion of the Board, be paid into a separate account in the Company’s name, provided that the Company shall not be constituted as a trustee in respect of that account and the Dividend shall remain as a debt due to the Member. Any Dividend which remains unclaimed after a period of six years from the date of declaration of such Dividend shall be forfeited and shall revert to the Company.

73. Interest on Dividends

No Dividend or distribution shall bear interest against the Company.

CAPITALISATION

74. Issue of Dividend Shares

The Board may capitalise any sum standing to the credit of any of the Company’s reserve accounts (including share premium account and capital redemption reserve fund) or any sums standing to the credit of the profit and loss account or otherwise available for distribution and to appropriate such sum to Members in the proportions in which such sum would have been divisible amongst them had the same been a distribution of profits by way of Dividend and to apply such sum on their behalf in paying up in full unissued Shares for allotment and distribution credited as fully paid-up to and amongst them in the proportion aforesaid. In such event the Directors shall do all acts and things required to give effect to such capitalisation, with full power to the Directors to make such provisions as they think fit for the case of Shares becoming distributable in fractions (including provisions whereby the benefit of fractional entitlements accrue to the Company rather than to the Members concerned). The Directors may authorise any person to enter on behalf of all of the Members interested into an agreement with the Company providing for such capitalisation and matters incidental thereto and any agreement made under such authority shall be effective and binding on all concerned.

ACCOUNTS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

75. Records of account

The Board shall cause to be kept proper records of account with respect to all transactions of the Company and in particular with respect to:

(1) all sums of money received and expended by the Company and the matters in respect of which the receipt and expenditure relates;

(2) all sales and purchases of goods by the Company; and

(3) the assets and liabilities of the Company.

Proper books shall not be deemed to be kept if there are not kept such books of account as are necessary to give a true and fair view of the state of the Company’s affairs and to explain its transactions.

Such records of account shall, subject to Statute, be kept at such place as the Board thinks fit and shall be available for inspection by the Directors during normal business hours. No Member in its

capacity as a Member shall have any right to inspect any accounting record or book or document of the Company except as conferred by the Statute or as authorised by the Board.

76. Financial year end

The financial year end of the Company may be determined by the Board and failing such resolution shall be 31st December in each year.

77. Financial statements

The Directors may from time to time cause to be prepared and to be laid before the Company in general meeting profit and loss accounts, balance sheets, group accounts (if any) and such other reports and accounts as may be required by law.

AUDIT

78. Appointment and remuneration of Auditor

The Directors may appoint an Auditor of the Company who shall hold office until removed from office by a resolution of the Directors, and may fix his or their remuneration. Any Auditor appointed by the Members shall, prior to such appointment, have been appointed by the Audit Committee. Such Auditor may be a Member but no Director, Officer or employee of the Company shall, during his or her continuance in office, be eligible to act as an Auditor of the Company.

79. [Reserved]

80. Access to books of the Company

The Auditor shall at all reasonable times have access to all books kept by the Company and to all accounts and vouchers relating thereto, and the Auditor may call on the Directors or Officers of the Company for any information and explanation as may be necessary relating to the books or affairs of the Company for the performance of the duties of the Auditor.

81. Report of the Auditor

(1) Auditors shall, if so required by the Directors, make a report on the accounts of the Company during their tenure of office at the next annual general meeting following their appointment in the case of a company which is registered with the Registrar of Companies as an ordinary company, and at the next extraordinary general meeting following their appointment in the case of a company which is registered with the Registrar of Companies as an exempted company, and at any other time during their term of office, upon request of the Directors or any general meeting of the Members.

(2) The financial statements provided for by these Articles shall be prepared in accordance with United States GAAP, audited by the Auditor in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. The Auditor shall make a written report thereon in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and the report of the Auditor shall be submitted to the Members in general meeting.

(3) The generally accepted auditing standards referred to in subparagraph (2) of this Article may be those of a country or jurisdiction other than the Cayman Islands, which shall be disclosed in the financial statements and the report of the Auditor.

NOTICES

82. Notices to Members of the Company

(1) A notice may be given by the Company to any Member either by delivering it to such Member in person or by sending it to such Member’s address in the Register of Members or to such other address given for the purpose. For the purposes of this Article, a notice may be sent by post, courier service, facsimile, electronic mail or other mode of representing words in a legible and non-transitory form. If such notice is sent by next-day courier, facsimile or electronic-mail, it shall be deemed to have been given the Business Day following the sending thereof and, if by registered post, three Business Days following the sending thereof.

(2) A notice may be given by the Company to the person or persons which the Company has been advised are entitled to a Share or Shares in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of a Member in the same manner as other notices which are required to be given under these Articles and shall be addressed to them by name, or by the title of representatives of the deceased, or trustee of the bankrupt, or by any like description at the address supplied for that purpose by the persons claiming to be so entitled, or at the option of the Company by giving the notice in any manner in which the same might have been given if the death or bankruptcy had not occurred.

(3) Notice of every general meeting shall be given in any manner hereinbefore authorised to every person shown as a Member in the Register of Members on the record date for such meeting except that in the case of joint holders the notice shall be sufficient if given to the joint holder first named in the Register of Members and every person upon whom the ownership of a Share devolves by reason of his being a legal personal representative or a trustee in bankruptcy of a Member of record where the Member of record but for his death or bankruptcy would be entitled to receive notice of the meeting, and no other person shall be entitled to receive notices of general meetings.

83. Service and delivery of notice

Subject to Statute and Article 82, any notice shall be deemed to have been served at the time when the same would be delivered in the ordinary course of transmission and, in proving such service, it shall be sufficient to prove that the notice was properly addressed and prepaid, if posted, and the time when it was posted, delivered to the courier or transmitted by facsimile or other method as the case may be.

84. Seal of the Company

(1) The Company may, if the Board so determines, have a seal. The seal shall only be used by the authority of the Directors or of a committee of the Directors authorised by the Directors. Every instrument to which the seal has been affixed shall be signed by at least one person who shall be either a Director or some officer or other person appointed by the Directors for the purpose.

(2) The Company may have for use in any place or places outside the Cayman Islands a duplicate seal or seals each of which shall be a facsimile of the common seal of the Company and, if the Directors so determine, with the addition on its face of the name of every place where it is to be used.

(3) A Director or officer, representative or attorney of the Company may without further authority of the Directors affix the seal over his signature alone to any document of the Company required to be authenticated by him under seal or to be filed with the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands or elsewhere wheresoever.

BENEFITS, PENSIONS AND INSURANCE

85. Benefits

The Board may (by establishment of or maintenance of schemes or otherwise) provide benefits, whether by share options or incentive plans and loans to acquire Shares, the payment of gratuities or pensions or by insurance or otherwise, for any past or present Director, Officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates and for any member of his or her family (including a spouse and a former spouse) or any individual who is or was dependent on him or her, and may (as well before as after he ceases to hold such office or employment) contribute to any fund and pay premiums for the purchase or provision of any such benefit.

86. Insurance

Without prejudice to the provisions of Article 33, the Board shall have the power to purchase and maintain insurance for or for the benefit of any individuals who are or were at any time Directors, Officers or employees of the Company, or of any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or who are or were at any time trustees of any pension fund in which Directors, Officers or employees of the Company or any such Subsidiary or Affiliate are interested, including (without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing) insurance against any liability incurred by such individuals in respect of any act or omission in the actual or purported execution or discharge of their duties or in the exercise or purported exercise of their powers or otherwise in relation to their duties, powers or offices in relation to the Company or any such Subsidiary, Affiliate or pension fund.

87. Limitation on accountability

No Director or former Director shall be accountable to the Company or the Members for any remuneration or benefit provided pursuant to Articles 22(2), 85 or 86 and the receipt of any such benefit shall not disqualify any individual from being or becoming a Director of the Company.

UNTRACED MEMBERS

88. Sale of Shares

The Company shall be entitled to sell at the best price reasonably obtainable, or if the Shares are listed on a stock exchange to purchase at the trading price on the date of purchase, the Shares of a Member or the Shares to which a Person is entitled by virtue of transmission on death, bankruptcy or otherwise by operation of law; provided, that:

(1) during the period of 12 years prior to the date of the publication of the advertisements referred to in paragraph (2) of this Article 88 (or, if published on different dates, the first thereof) at least three Dividends in respect of the Shares in question have been declared and all Dividends, warrants and checks (cheques) that have been sent in the manner authorised by these Articles in respect of the Shares in question have remained uncashed;

(2) the Company shall as soon as practicable after expiry of the said period of 12 years have inserted advertisements both in a national daily newspaper and in a newspaper circulating in the area of the last known address of such Member or other Person giving notice of its intention to sell or purchase the Shares;

(3) during the said period of 12 years and the period of three months following the publication of the said advertisements the Company shall have received no indication either of the whereabouts or of the existence of such Member or Person; and

(4) if the Shares are listed on a stock exchange, notice shall have been given to the relevant department of such stock exchange of the Company’s intention to make such purchase prior to the publication of advertisements.

If during any 12-year period referred to above, further Shares have been issued in right of those held at the beginning of such period or of any previously issued during such period and all the other requirements of this Article 88 (other than the requirement that they be in issue for 12 years) have been satisfied in regard to the further Shares, the Company may also sell or purchase the further Shares.

89. Instrument of Transfer

To give effect to any such sale or purchase under Article 88, the Board may authorise some person to execute an instrument of transfer of the Shares sold or purchased to, or in accordance with the directions of, the purchaser and an instrument of transfer executed by that person shall be as effective as if it had been executed by the holder of, or person entitled by transmission to, the Shares. The transferee of any Shares sold shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, nor shall his title to the Shares be affected by any irregularity in, or invalidity of, the proceedings relating to the sale.

90. Proceeds of Sale

The net proceeds of sale or purchase of Shares pursuant to Article 88 shall belong to the Company which, for the period of six years after the Transfer or purchase, shall be obliged to account to the former Member or other Person previously entitled as aforesaid for an amount equal to such proceeds and shall enter the name of such former Member or other Person in the books of the Company as a creditor for such amount. No trust shall be created in respect of the debt, no interest shall be payable in respect of the same and the Company shall not be required to account for any money earned on the net proceeds, which may be employed in the business of the Company or invested in such investments as the Board from time to time thinks fit. After the said six-year period has passed, the net proceeds of Share shall become the property of the Company, absolutely, and any rights of the former Member or other Person previously entitled as aforesaid shall terminate completely.

WINDING UP

91. Determination to liquidate

Subject to the Statute, the Company may be wound up voluntarily by its Members. If the Company shall be wound up, and the assets available for distribution amongst the Members shall be insufficient to repay the whole of the share capital, such assets shall be distributed so that, as nearly as may be, the losses shall be borne by the Members in proportion to the par value of the Shares held by them. If in a winding up the assets available for distribution amongst the Members shall be more than sufficient to repay the whole of the share capital at the commencement of the winding up, the surplus shall be distributed amongst the Members in proportion to the par value of the Shares held by them at the commencement of the winding up subject to a deduction from those Shares in respect of which there are monies due, of all monies payable to the Company for unpaid calls or otherwise. This Article is without prejudice to the rights of the holders of Shares issued upon special terms and conditions.

92. Winding up/distribution by liquidator

If the Company shall be wound up the liquidator may, with the sanction of a Special Resolution of the Members and any other sanction required by Statute, divide amongst the Members or in kind the whole or any part of the assets of the Company (whether they shall consist of property of the same kind or not) and may, for such purpose, set such value as he or she deems fair upon any property to be divided as aforesaid and may determine how such division shall be carried out as between the Members or different classes of Members. The liquidator may, with the like sanction, vest the whole or any part of such assets in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the Members as the liquidator, with the like sanction, shall think fit, but so that no Member shall be compelled to accept any Shares or other securities or assets whereon there is any liability.

AMENDMENTS OF MEMORANDUM AND ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION AND ALTERATION OF CAPITAL

93. The Company may by Ordinary Resolution:

(1) increase the share capital by such sum as the resolution shall prescribe and with such rights, priorities and privileges annexed thereto, as the Company in general meeting may determine;

(2) consolidate and divide all or any of its share capital into Shares of larger amount than its existing Shares;

(3) by subdivision of its existing Shares or any of them divide the whole or any part of its Share capital into Shares of smaller amount than is fixed by the Memorandum or into Shares without par value; and

(4) cancel any Shares that at the date of the passing of the resolution have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person.

All new Shares created in accordance with the provisions of the preceding Article shall be subject to the same provisions of the Articles with reference to the payment of calls, liens, Transfer, transmission, forfeiture and otherwise as the Shares in the original share capital.

94.

Subject to the provisions of the Statute and the provisions of these Articles as regards the matters to be dealt with by Ordinary Resolution, the Company may by Special Resolution:

(1) change its name;

(2) alter or add to these Articles;

(3) alter or add to the Memorandum with respect to any objects, powers or other matters specified therein; and

(4) reduce its share capital and any capital redemption reserve fund.

REGISTERED OFFICE FOR THE TIME BEING OF THE COMPANY

95.

Subject to the provisions of the Statute, the Company may by resolution of the Directors change the location of the registered office for the time being of the Company.

CERTAIN SUBSIDIARIES

96. Voting of subsidiary shares

Notwithstanding any other provision of these Articles to the contrary, if the Company is required or entitled to vote at general meetings of (i) Greenlight Reinsurance or (ii) any Designated Subsidiary (as defined in Article 97), the Directors shall refer the subject matter of the vote to the Members on a poll and seek authority from the Members to have the Company’s corporate representative or proxy vote in favour of the resolution proposed by Greenlight Reinsurance and/or such Designated Subsidiary. The Directors shall cause the Company’s corporate representative or proxy to vote the Company’s shares in Greenlight Reinsurance and/or such Designated Subsidiary pro rata to the votes received at the general meeting of the Company, with votes for or against the directing resolution being taken, respectively, as an instruction for the Company’s corporate representative or proxy to vote the appropriate proportion of its shares for and the appropriate proportion of its shares against the resolution proposed by Greenlight Reinsurance and/or such Designated Subsidiary. All votes referred to the Company’s Members pursuant to this Article 96 shall be subject to the voting power restrictions of Articles 12(3), 43(3), and 54 (and the additional restrictions and rights of the Class B Ordinary Shares set forth in Schedule A hereto).

97. Articles or Articles of Association of certain subsidiaries

The Board shall require that the Articles of Association of Greenlight Reinsurance and may require that the Articles or Articles of Association of each other direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Company organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States that is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal tax purposes and designated by the Board, contain provisions substantially similar to Article 96, herein (any such Subsidiary so designated by the Board is referred to herein as a “Designated Subsidiary”). If the Board designates any indirect Subsidiary of the Company as a Designated Subsidiary, the Board shall also designate each intermediate Subsidiary between such Designated Subsidiary and the Company (other than Greenlight Reinsurance) as a Designated Subsidiary hereunder. The Company in its discretion may enter into agreements with each Designated Subsidiary, as reasonably necessary, to effect or implement this Article.

TRANSFER BY WAY OF CONTINUATION

98. Continuation

If the Company is exempted as defined in the Statute, it shall, subject to the provisions of the Statute and with the approval of a Special Resolution, have the power to register by way of continuation as a body corporate under the laws of any jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands and to be deregistered in the Cayman Islands.

SCHEDULE A TO ARTICLES

DESIGNATIONS, NUMBER, VOTING POWERS;
PREFERENCES AND RIGHTS OF CLASS B ORDINARY SHARES

1. Designation and Amount.

(a) The Shares of this series shall be designated the Class B Ordinary Shares, par value $0.10 per Share (the “Class B Ordinary Shares”).

(b) The Class B Ordinary Shares shall only be held by David Einhorn and his Permitted Transferees.

2. General.

Except as provided in items 3 and 4 below, each Class B Ordinary Share shall be entitled to the same rights, and be subject to the same restrictions, as the Class A Ordinary Shares as set forth in these Articles.

3. Voting.

(a) Generally, each holder of Class B Ordinary Share is entitled to ten (10) votes per Class B Ordinary Share. However, in the event that the aggregate number of votes conferred by all of the issued and outstanding Class B Ordinary Shares, voting as a class, exceeds 9.5% of the Total Voting Power, then the Total Voting Power of the class shall be reduced to 9.5% of the Total Voting Power. The voting power of any Class A Ordinary Shares held by any holder of Class B Ordinary Shares (whether directly, or indirectly or constructively under applicable attribution and constructive ownership rules contained in the Code) shall be included for purposes of measuring Total Voting Power in the immediately preceding sentence, except, and only to the extent, the right to vote such Class A Ordinary Shares has been limited pursuant to the Articles.

In addition to the limitation in the immediately preceding sentence, the restrictions on the voting power of Class B Ordinary Shares contained in Articles 12(3) and 54 shall apply to holders of Class B Ordinary Shares.

(b) the voting rights attached to any Class B Ordinary Shares which are determined by the Board to represent in excess of 9.5% of the Total Voting Power, whether pursuant to Schedule A Section 3(a) or Article 12(3), shall be allocated for voting purposes to all the other Members of the Company pro rata according to their percentage interest in the Company; provided however, that no other Member shall be allocated voting rights pursuant to this sentence if doing so would (i) render such other Member a 9.9% Member or (ii) cause the holders of Class B Ordinary Shares, as a class, to hold more than 9.5% of the Total Voting Power as a result of applicable attribution and constructive ownership rules contained in the Code.

4. Requirement to Provide Information and Notice.

(a) The Board shall have the authority to request from any Member holding Class B Ordinary Shares, and such Member shall provide, such information as the Board may request for the purpose of determining whether any Member’s voting rights are to be adjusted. If such Member fails to respond to such a request, or submits incomplete or inaccurate information in response to such a request,

the Board may in its sole and absolute discretion determine that such Member’s Class B Ordinary Shares shall carry no voting rights in which case such Class B Ordinary Shares shall not carry any voting rights until otherwise determined by the Board in its sole and absolute discretion.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Member shall be liable to any other Member or the Company for any losses or damages resulting from such Member’s failure to respond to, or submission of incomplete or inaccurate information in response to, a request under paragraph (4)(a).

(d) One of the purposes of the voting limitation set forth in this Schedule A is to seek to reduce the likelihood that there would be adverse tax consequences to U.S. Persons if the Company were to be characterized as a controlled foreign corporation as defined in the Code. Nevertheless, the Board will not be liable to the Company, its Members or any other Person whatsoever for any errors in judgment made by its interpreting or enforcing this paragraph or in granting any waiver or waivers to the foregoing restrictions in any case so long as the Board shall have acted in good faith.

5. Conversion

(a) Following a sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition of any Class B Ordinary Shares by a holder thereof to a purchaser or other transferee, the Class B Ordinary Shares shall immediately and automatically convert into an equal number of Class A Ordinary Shares on a one-for-one basis, by way of redemption and reissue, except for those transfers to a Permitted Transferee, or unless such transfer is unanimously approved by the Board of Directors. Any Class B Ordinary Shares converted to Class A Ordinary Shares pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be subject to the restrictions on voting contained in Articles 12(3) and 54.

(b) The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Class A Ordinary Shares, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Class B Ordinary Shares, such number of its shares as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all the outstanding Class B Ordinary Shares.

(c) If any Class B Ordinary Shares shall be converted pursuant to this item 5, the Shares so converted shall be retired and returned to the authorized but unissued Class B Ordinary Shares.
