7.5        Severability. If any term, provision, agreement, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other competent authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, agreements, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated; provided, however, that the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby not thereby be affected in any manner materially adverse to any party hereto. Upon such a determination, the parties shall (subject to the proviso in the preceding sentence) negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a reasonably acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby may be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.


7.6        Cooperation; Further Assurances. The Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand, at the request of the other such party, shall execute and deliver such other instruments and do and perform such other acts and things as may be reasonably necessary or desirable for effecting completely the consummation of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

7.9        Counterparts, Execution, Headings. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile transmission or by electronic mail with a PDF scanned attachment) in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

7.14        Confidentiality. The Purchaser and the Sellers acknowledge and agree that this Agreement and the transaction contemplated herein are confidential, and no disclosure of any information regarding the Seller, the Purchaser or their respective affiliates, including information regarding this Agreement, is permitted other than (1) to affiliates, employees and/or business, legal or financial advisors of the Sellers or the Purchaser or China Merchant Capital Management (International) Limited who are on a “need to know” basis, provided they procure such parties’ compliance with the confidentiality provisions hereof and shall be liable for any breach thereof, or (2) as required by applicable law, regulation or legal process or upon the routine request of any government or regulatory body having authority to regulate or oversee any aspect of the business of the Purchaser and/or Sellers or their respective affiliates, provided that the they shall advise the governmental or regulatory body of the confidential nature of such information. None of the parties hereto shall make any public statements regarding the existence of this Agreement or the terms hereof, the transaction contemplated herein and the identity of the parties, except (i) as the parties hereto mutually agree in writing (including the language on any disclosure) or (ii) until such time as the parties agree, based on the advice of counsel, that a public announcement is required by law or regulation, in which case the parties hereto shall in good faith attempt to agree on the content of any public announcements or publicity statements with respect thereto.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Sellers acknowledge (i) that each party may advise the Company of and provide to the Company a copy of this Agreement and nothing contained in this Section 7.14 is intended to limit or restrict the Company’s disclosure obligations under the U.S. securities laws and (ii) that, if the Purchaser acquires beneficial ownership of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of the Company, it will be required to file a Schedule 13D with the SEC (which Schedule will contain as an exhibit thereto a copy of this Agreement), and nothing contained in this Section 7.14 is intended to limit or restrict such ability to file such Schedule 13D or any amendments thereto or attach any exhibits required to be attached thereto.

7.15        Expenses. The Sellers and the Purchaser shall bear their own expenses including, without limitation, the legal, accounting and out of pocket costs and administration expenses, incurred by themselves in connection with the negotiation, preparation and execution of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. The Purchaser will bear all escrow fees.


7.16        Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, irreparable damage would occur, no adequate remedy at law would exist and damages would be difficult to determine, and that the parties hereto shall be entitled (without necessity of posting bond or other security) to injunctive relief to prevent breaches of, and to specific performance of, the provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity. The rights and remedies of the parties hereto shall be cumulative (and not alternative).

8.        Amendments; No Waiver. No modifications of or any changes to this Assignment shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by each of the Parties. No waiver of any provision of this Assignment by a Party shall constitute a waiver of any other provision(s) or of the same provisions on another occasion.

9.        Further Assurances.
