PROPOSED MERGER—YOUR VOTE IS VERY IMPORTANT

        HiSoft Technology International Limited ("HiSoft") and VanceInfo Technologies Inc. ("VanceInfo") have agreed to a "merger of equals" business combination (the "merger") and have entered into an agreement and plan of merger dated as of August 10, 2012, as amended by the amendment dated as of August 31, 2012 (the "merger agreement"). Pursuant to the merger agreement, VanceInfo will survive as a wholly-owned subsidiary of HiSoft. Upon completion of the merger, the name of HiSoft will be changed to in Chinese and "Pactera Technology International Ltd." in English.

Each of the board of directors of VanceInfo and HiSoft has unanimously approved the merger agreement, the merger and the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, and has determined that the merger and related transactions are in the best interests of VanceInfo and its shareholders and HiSoft and its shareholders, respectively.

        Upon completion of the merger, VanceInfo shareholders will receive one HiSoft common share for each VanceInfo ordinary share and VanceInfo ADS holders will receive one HiSoft ADS for each VanceInfo ADS.

        The 1-for-1 exchange ratios and the completion of the merger are subject to the completion of (1) a proposed consolidation of the HiSoft shares in which every 13.9482 HiSoft common shares will be consolidated into one HiSoft common share (the "HiSoft Share Consolidation") and (2) an adjustment to the number of HiSoft common shares represented by each HiSoft ADS from 19 to one (the "HiSoft ADS Adjustment"). You should be aware that the exchange ratios are fixed and will not be adjusted to reflect price changes in the HiSoft ADSs or VanceInfo ADSs prior to the closing of the merger.

        Upon completion of the merger, based on the estimated number of VanceInfo ordinary shares and HiSoft common shares that will be outstanding immediately prior to the completion of the merger, we estimate that VanceInfo shareholders and VanceInfo ADS holders will own approximately 50% of the combined company and HiSoft shareholders and HiSoft ADS holders will own approximately 50% of the combined company immediately following the completion of the merger.

        The HiSoft ADSs are listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market ("NASDAQ") under the trading symbol "HSFT". The HiSoft ADSs will continue to be listed on NASDAQ following completion of the merger under the new trading symbol "PACT". The VanceInfo ADSs are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") under the trading symbol "VIT", and will cease to be listed and traded following completion of the merger.

        For the 90 calendar days ending on August 9, 2012, the last full trading day prior to the public announcement by HiSoft and VanceInfo of the execution of the merger agreement, the average closing prices of HiSoft ADSs on NASDAQ and VanceInfo ADSs on the NYSE were US$12.97 per HiSoft ADS and US$9.41 per VanceInfo ADS, respectively. For the 30 calendar days ending on August 9, 2012, the average closing prices of HiSoft ADSs on NASDAQ and VanceInfo ADSs on the NYSE were US$11.74 per HiSoft ADS and US$8.88 per VanceInfo ADS, respectively. On August 9, 2012, the closing prices of HiSoft ADSs on NASDAQ and VanceInfo ADSs on the NYSE were US$11.88 and US$9.94, respectively. On September 27, 2012, the latest practicable trading day before the filing of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, the closing prices of HiSoft ADSs on NASDAQ and VanceInfo ADSs on the NYSE were US$10.26 and US$7.73, respectively. We urge you to obtain current trading prices for HiSoft ADSs and VanceInfo ADSs.

        Based on the average closing price of HiSoft ADSs on NASDAQ for the 90 calendar days ending on August 9, 2012, the ADS exchange ratio represented approximately US$9.52 in value for each VanceInfo ADS. Based on the average closing price of HiSoft ADSs on NASDAQ for the 30 calendar days ending on August 9, 2012, the ADS exchange ratio represented approximately US$8.62 in value for each VanceInfo ADS. Based on the closing price of HiSoft ADSs on NASDAQ on August 9, 2012, the ADS exchange ratio represented approximately US$8.72 in value for each VanceInfo ADS. Based on the closing price of HiSoft ADSs on NASDAQ on September 27, 2012, the ADS exchange ratio represented approximately US$7.53 in value for each VanceInfo ADS. Each of the foregoing implied values for each VanceInfo ADS has been calculated based on the ADS exchange ratio of one, after giving effect to the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment.

        We cannot complete the merger unless the VanceInfo shareholders and the HiSoft shareholders approve various proposals related to the merger and the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement. VanceInfo and HiSoft will each hold extraordinary general meetings of their respective shareholders in connection with the proposed merger. Your vote is very important, regardless of the number of shares you own. Whether or not you expect to attend either extraordinary general meeting in person, please submit a proxy or ADS voting instruction card to vote as promptly as possible so that your shares (including shares represented by ADSs) may be represented and voted at the VanceInfo or HiSoft extraordinary general meeting, as applicable.

        At the VanceInfo extraordinary general meeting, VanceInfo shareholders will be asked to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger. At the HiSoft extraordinary general meeting, HiSoft shareholders will be asked to authorize and approve (1) the HiSoft Share Consolidation, (2) an alteration to the conditions of the HiSoft Memorandum of Association to increase HiSoft's share capital and the number of authorized HiSoft shares to 120,000,000 (the "HiSoft Capital Increase") after giving effect to the HiSoft Share Consolidation, (3) the issuance of HiSoft shares, including HiSoft shares underlying HiSoft ADSs, as consideration for the merger (the "HiSoft Share Issuance") and (4) an amendment to the Memorandum and Articles of Association of HiSoft to reflect the change of HiSoft's legal name from "HiSoft Technology International Limited" to in Chinese and "Pactera Technology International Ltd." in English, and to delete the additional or casting vote granted to the chairman of the meeting of the board of directors of HiSoft in the case of any equality of votes (the "HiSoft Articles Amendments").

VanceInfo's board of directors (the "VanceInfo Board") unanimously recommends that holders of VanceInfo shares and VanceInfo ADSs vote "FOR" the resolutions to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger. HiSoft's board of directors (the "HiSoft Board") unanimously recommends that holders of HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs vote "FOR" the resolutions to authorize and approve the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Share Issuance and the HiSoft Articles Amendments.

        This joint proxy statement/prospectus provides the shareholders and ADS holders of HiSoft and VanceInfo with detailed information about the shareholder meetings and the merger, including certain conditions to the completion of the merger. You can also obtain information from publicly available documents filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") by HiSoft and VanceInfo, respectively. We encourage you to read this entire document carefully before voting. In particular, you should carefully consider the section entitled "Risk Factors" beginning on page 39.

        We look forward to the successful completion of the merger of HiSoft and VanceInfo.

Very sincerely yours,

Tiak Koon Loh Chief Executive Officer HiSoft Technology International Limited	Chris Shuning Chen Chief Executive Officer VanceInfo Technologies Inc.

"In the case of any equality of votes the chairman of the meeting shall have an additional or casting vote."; and

•

RESOLVED, as an ordinary resolution:

THAT in the event that there are insufficient proxies received at the time of the HiSoft EGM to authorize and approve the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Share Issuance and the HiSoft Articles Amendments proposed at the HiSoft EGM, the

chairman of the HiSoft EGM be instructed to adjourn the HiSoft EGM in order to allow HiSoft to solicit additional proxies.

        The resolutions relating to the HiSoft Share Consolidation, HiSoft Capital Increase, HiSoft Share Issuance and the HiSoft Articles Amendments are conditioned on each other and the approval of each is required for the completion of the merger.

        HiSoft has filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") a registration statement on Form F-4, which includes a prospectus of HiSoft relating to the HiSoft Share Issuance and which also functions as a joint proxy statement of HiSoft and VanceInfo under Cayman Islands law (the "joint proxy statement/prospectus"). This joint proxy statement/prospectus further describes to the matters to be considered at the meeting. The merger agreement (including the amendment thereto) is in the form attached as Appendix A to this joint proxy statement/prospectus, which will be produced and made available for inspection at the HiSoft EGM. Pursuant to the merger agreement, Merger Sub will be merged with and into VanceInfo, with VanceInfo continuing as the surviving entity and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of HiSoft, and immediately thereafter, VanceInfo will be merged with and into Merger Sub II, with Merger Sub II continuing as the surviving entity and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of HiSoft.

        If you own HiSoft ADSs on the close of business on September 25, 2012 (New York City time) (the "HiSoft ADS record date"), you cannot vote your ADSs at the HiSoft EGM directly, but you may instruct Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (the "HiSoft depositary"), as depositary under a deposit agreement, dated as of June 29, 2010, by and among HiSoft, the HiSoft depositary and all holders and beneficial owners of HiSoft ADSs evidenced by American depositary receipts issued thereunder (the "HiSoft Deposit Agreement"), as the legal owner of HiSoft shares underlying HiSoft ADSs, how to vote the HiSoft shares underlying your ADSs. The HiSoft depositary must receive such instructions no later than noon (New York City time) on November 1, 2012 in order to vote the underlying HiSoft shares at the HiSoft EGM. Alternatively, you may vote at the HiSoft EGM if you surrender your HiSoft ADSs to the HiSoft depositary, pay the HiSoft depositary's fees required for such surrender, provide instructions for the registration of the corresponding HiSoft shares, and certify that you have not given, and will not give, voting instructions as to the HiSoft ADSs (or alternatively, you will not vote the HiSoft shares), before the close of business on October 8, 2012 (New York City time), and become a holder of HiSoft shares by the close of business on October 12, 2012 (Hong Kong time). In addition, if you hold your ADSs through a financial intermediary such as a broker, you must rely on the procedures of the financial intermediary through which you hold your HiSoft ADSs if you wish to vote at the HiSoft EGM.

        After careful consideration, HiSoft's board of directors has unanimously (1) approved the merger agreement, the plan of merger, the merger and the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, (2) directed that the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Share Issuance and the HiSoft Articles Amendments be submitted to HiSoft shareholders for authorization and approval, and (3) recommended that holders of HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs authorize and approve the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Share Issuance and the HiSoft Articles Amendments.

Accordingly, the HiSoft Board recommends that holders of HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs vote "FOR" the resolutions to authorize and approve the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Share Issuance and the HiSoft Articles Amendments and "FOR" the resolutions to authorize and approve the adjournment of the HiSoft EGM to a later date or dates if necessary to solicit additional proxies.

        The HiSoft Share Consolidation must be authorized and approved by an affirmative vote of at least a majority of the shareholders of HiSoft as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the HiSoft EGM. The HiSoft Capital Increase must be authorized and approved by an affirmative vote of at least a majority of the shareholders of HiSoft as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the HiSoft EGM. The HiSoft Share Issuance must be authorized and approved by an affirmative vote of at least a majority of the shareholders of HiSoft as, being entitled to do so, vote in

person or by proxy at the HiSoft EGM. The HiSoft Articles Amendments must be authorized and approved by an affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the shareholders of HiSoft as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the HiSoft EGM.

Regardless of the number of HiSoft shares that you own, your vote is very important. Whether or not you plan to attend the HiSoft EGM, we request that you submit your proxy in accordance with the instructions set forth on the proxy card as promptly as possible. You should simply indicate on your proxy card how you want to vote, sign and date the proxy card, and mail the proxy card in the enclosed return envelope as soon as possible to ensure that it will be received by HiSoft no later than 9:00 a.m. on November 2, 2012 (Beijing time) so that your HiSoft shares will be represented and may be voted at the HiSoft EGM. If you receive more than one proxy card because you own HiSoft shares that are registered in different names, please vote all of your HiSoft shares shown on all of your proxy cards in accordance with the instructions set forth on the proxy card.

        Completing the proxy card in accordance with the instructions set forth on the proxy card will not deprive you of your right to attend the HiSoft EGM and vote your HiSoft shares in person. Please note, however, that if your HiSoft shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee and you wish to vote at the HiSoft EGM in person, you must obtain from the record holder a proxy issued in your name.

        If you submit a valid proxy card without indicating how you wish to vote, (1) the HiSoft shares represented by that proxy card will be voted "FOR" the resolutions to authorize and approve the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Share Issuance and the HiSoft Articles Amendments, and (2) the HiSoft shares represented by that proxy card will be voted "FOR" the resolution that, in the event that there are insufficient proxies received at the time of the HiSoft EGM to authorize and approve the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Share Issuance and the HiSoft Articles Amendments, the chairman of the HiSoft EGM be instructed to adjourn the HiSoft EGM in order to allow HiSoft to solicit additional proxies, unless the HiSoft shareholder appoints a person other than the chairman of HiSoft EGM as proxy, in which case the HiSoft shares represented by that proxy card will be voted (or not submitted for voting) as the proxy determines. HiSoft shareholders who fail to cast their vote in person or by submitting a valid proxy and will not have their votes counted.

        Further, if holders of HiSoft ADSs do not give voting instructions to the HiSoft depositary, they will be deemed to have instructed the HiSoft depositary to give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by HiSoft (the "HiSoft Designee") under the HiSoft Deposit Agreement, unless HiSoft informs the HiSoft depositary that (1) HiSoft does not wish such discretionary proxy to be given, (2) HiSoft is aware or should reasonably be aware that substantial opposition exists from holders of HiSoft ADSs against the outcome for which the HiSoft Designee would otherwise vote, or (3) the outcome for which the HiSoft Designee would otherwise vote would materially and adversely affect the rights of the holders of HiSoft shares. It is HiSoft's intention that the HiSoft Designee votes all such unvoted HiSoft shares (1) "FOR" the resolutions to authorize and approve the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Share Issuance and the HiSoft Articles Amendments at the HiSoft EGM and (2) "FOR" any resolution to adjourn the HiSoft EGM, if necessary.

PLEASE DO NOT SEND YOUR HISOFT SHARE CERTIFICATES OR HISOFT AMERICAN DEPOSITARY RECEIPTS (ADRs) EVIDENCING HISOFT ADSs AT THIS TIME. IF THE MERGER IS COMPLETED, YOU WILL BE SENT INSTRUCTIONS REGARDING THE SURRENDER OF YOUR HISOFT SHARE CERTIFICATES OR HISOFT ADRs.

        If you have any questions or need assistance in voting your HiSoft shares or HiSoft ADSs, please contact Mr. Ross Warner, by telephone at +86-10-5987-5865, or email investor_relations@hisoft.com.

Notes:

        1.     If a HiSoft share is held jointly by two or more persons, the vote of the holder whose name appears first in the register of members of HiSoft who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the vote of the other joint holders.

        2.     The instrument appointing a proxy shall be in writing under the hand of the appointer or of his attorney duly authorized in writing or, if the appointer is a corporation, either under seal or under the hand of an officer, attorney or other person authorized to sign the same.

        3.     A proxy need not be a member (registered shareholder) of HiSoft.

        4.     Votes given in accordance with the terms of an instrument of proxy shall be valid notwithstanding the death or insanity of the principal prior to the HiSoft EGM, or revocation of the proxy or of the authority under which the proxy was executed, unless notice in writing of such death, insanity or revocation was received by HiSoft at HiSoft Technology International Limited, Building C-4, No. 66 Xixiaokou Road, Haidian District, Beijing 100192, People's Republic of China, at least two hours before the commencement of the HiSoft EGM or adjourned meeting, or the taking of the poll, at which the instrument of proxy is used.

THAT in the event that there are insufficient proxies received at the time of the VanceInfo EGM to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, the chairman of the VanceInfo EGM be instructed to adjourn the VanceInfo EGM in order to allow VanceInfo to solicit additional proxies.

        HiSoft has filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form F-4, which includes the joint proxy statement/prospectus. The joint proxy statement/prospectus further describes to the matters to be considered at the meeting.

        If you own VanceInfo ADSs on the close of business on October 5, 2012 (New York City time) (the "VanceInfo ADS record date"), you cannot vote your ADSs at the VanceInfo EGM directly, but you may instruct JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., (the "VanceInfo depositary"), as depositary under a deposit agreement, dated as of December 11, 2007, by and among VanceInfo, the VanceInfo depositary and all holders and beneficial owners of VanceInfo ADSs evidenced by American depositary receipts issued thereunder (the "VanceInfo Deposit Agreement"), as the holder of VanceInfo shares underlying VanceInfo ADSs, how to vote the VanceInfo shares underlying your ADSs. The VanceInfo depositary must receive such instructions no later than noon (New York City time) on November 1, 2012 in order to vote the underlying VanceInfo shares at the VanceInfo EGM. Alternatively, you may vote at the VanceInfo EGM if you surrender your VanceInfo ADSs to the VanceInfo depositary before the close of business on October 8, 2012 (New York City time), and become a holder of VanceInfo shares by the close of business on October 12, 2012 (Hong Kong time). In addition, if you hold your ADSs through a financial intermediary such as a broker, you must rely on the procedures of the financial intermediary through which you hold your VanceInfo ADSs if you wish to vote at the VanceInfo EGM.

        After careful consideration, VanceInfo's board of directors has unanimously (1) approved the merger agreement, the plan of merger, and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, (2) directed that the same be submitted to VanceInfo shareholders for authorization and approval, and (3) recommended that holders of VanceInfo shares and VanceInfo ADSs authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger, and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger.

Accordingly, the VanceInfo Board recommends that holders of VanceInfo shares and VanceInfo ADSs vote "FOR" the resolutions to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger, and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, and "FOR" the resolution to authorize and approve the adjournment of the VanceInfo EGM to a later date or dates if necessary to solicit additional proxies.

        The resolution to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger, and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, must be authorized and approved by an affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the shareholders of VanceInfo as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the VanceInfo EGM. The resolution to authorize and approve the adjournment of the VanceInfo EGM to a later date or dates if necessary to solicit additional proxies must be authorized and approved by an affirmative vote of at least a majority of the shareholders of VanceInfo as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the VanceInfo EGM.

Regardless of the number of VanceInfo shares that you own, your vote is very important. Whether or not you plan to attend the VanceInfo EGM, we request that you submit your proxy in accordance with the instructions set forth on the proxy card as promptly as possible. You should simply indicate on your proxy card how you want to vote, sign and date the proxy card, and mail the proxy card in the enclosed return envelope as soon as possible to ensure that it will be received by VanceInfo no later than 9:00 a.m. on November 2, 2012 (Hong Kong time) so that your VanceInfo shares will be represented and may be voted at the VanceInfo EGM. If you receive more than one proxy card because you own VanceInfo shares that are registered in different names, please vote all of your VanceInfo shares shown on all of your proxy cards in accordance with the instructions set forth on the proxy card.

        Completing the proxy card in accordance with the instructions set forth on the proxy card will not deprive you of your right to attend the VanceInfo EGM and vote your VanceInfo shares in person. Please note, however, that if your VanceInfo shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee and you wish to vote at the VanceInfo EGM in person, you must obtain from the record holder a proxy issued in your name.

        If you submit a valid proxy card without indicating how you wish to vote, (1) the VanceInfo shares represented by that proxy card will be voted "FOR" the resolution to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger, and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, and (2) the VanceInfo shares represented by that proxy card will be voted "FOR" the

resolution that, in the event that there are insufficient proxies received at the time of the VanceInfo EGM to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger, and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, the chairman of the VanceInfo EGM be instructed to adjourn the VanceInfo EGM in order to allow VanceInfo to solicit additional proxies, unless the VanceInfo shareholder appoints a person other than the chairman of VanceInfo EGM as proxy, in which case the VanceInfo shares represented by that proxy card will be voted (or not submitted for voting) as the proxy determines. VanceInfo shareholders who fail to cast their vote in person or by submitting a valid proxy card will not have their votes counted.

        Further, if holders of VanceInfo ADSs mark the box in the proxy card to indicate that they wish to give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by VanceInfo (the "VanceInfo Designee"), the VanceInfo shares underlying these VanceInfo ADSs will be voted by VanceInfo Designee in his or her discretion. It is VanceInfo's intention that the VanceInfo Designee votes all such unvoted VanceInfo shares (1) "FOR" the resolution to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger, and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, at the VanceInfo EGM and (2) "FOR" any resolution to adjourn the VanceInfo EGM, if necessary.

VANCEINFO SHAREHOLDERS AND ADS HOLDERS WILL NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO SEEK APPRAISAL AND PAYMENT OF THE FAIR VALUE OF THE VANCEINFO SHARES, INCLUDING VANCEINFO SHARES UNDERLYING THEIR VANCEINFO ADSs.

PLEASE DO NOT SEND YOUR VANCEINFO SHARE CERTIFICATES OR VANCEINFO AMERICAN DEPOSITARY RECEIPTS ("ADRs") EVIDENCING ADSs AT THIS TIME. IF THE MERGER IS COMPLETED, YOU WILL BE SENT INSTRUCTIONS REGARDING THE SURRENDER OF YOUR VANCEINFO SHARE CERTIFICATES OR VANCEINFO ADRs.

        If you have any questions or need assistance in voting your VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs, please contact Ms. Sheryl Zhang, by facsimile at +86 10-8282-5268, or email ir@vanceinfo.com.

Notes:

        1.     If a VanceInfo share is held jointly by two or more persons, the vote of the holder whose name appears first in the register of members of VanceInfo who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the vote of the other joint holders.

        2.     The instrument appointing a proxy shall be in writing under the hand of the appointer or of his attorney duly authorized in writing or, if the appointer is a corporation, either under seal or under the hand of an officer, attorney or other person authorized to sign the same.

        3.     A proxy need not be a member (registered shareholder) of VanceInfo.

        4.     Votes given in accordance with the terms of an instrument of proxy shall be valid notwithstanding the death or insanity of the principal prior to the VanceInfo EGM, or revocation of the proxy or of the authority under which the proxy was executed, unless notice in writing of such death, insanity or revocation was received by VanceInfo at VanceInfo Technologies Inc. 3/F Building 8, Zhongguancun Software Park, Haidian District, Beijing 100193, People's Republic of China, at least two hours before the commencement of the VanceInfo EGM or adjourned meeting, or the taking of the poll, at which the instrument of proxy is used.

Name:	Chris Shuning Chen

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE MERGER AND THE GENERAL
MEETINGS OF HISOFT AND VANCEINFO

The following are some questions that you may have regarding the merger, extraordinary general meeting of HiSoft shareholders (the "HiSoft EGM) and the extraordinary general meeting of the VanceInfo shareholders (the "VanceInfo EGM") and brief answers to those questions. HiSoft and VanceInfo urge you to read carefully this entire joint proxy statement/prospectus because the information in this section does not provide all the information that might be important to you with respect to the merger, HiSoft EGM and VanceInfo EGM. Additional important information is also contained in the documents incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus. Please see "Where You Can Find More Information" and "Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference" on pages 199 and 200, respectively.

Q:

What is this document?

A:

HiSoft has agreed to acquire all of the outstanding VanceInfo shares and VanceInfo ADSs pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement and the plan of merger that are described in this joint proxy statement/prospectus. A copy of the merger agreement (including the amendment thereto) is attached to this joint proxy statement/prospectus as Appendix A, and the form of the plan of merger is attached as Annex A to the merger agreement.

In order to complete the merger, VanceInfo shareholders must vote to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, and HiSoft shareholders must vote to authorize and approve the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Share Issuance and the HiSoft Articles Amendments. This joint proxy statement/prospectus contains important information about HiSoft, VanceInfo, the merger, the HiSoft EGM, the VanceInfo EGM and other background information so that you can make an informed investment decision, and you should read this information carefully.

This joint proxy statement/prospectus is (1) a proxy statement for HiSoft under Cayman Islands law because the HiSoft Board is soliciting proxies from HiSoft shareholders, (2) a proxy statement for VanceInfo under Cayman Islands law because the VanceInfo Board is soliciting proxies from VanceInfo shareholders, and (3) a prospectus of HiSoft with respect to the HiSoft shares to be issued to VanceInfo shareholders and the HiSoft ADSs to be issued to VanceInfo ADS holders in the merger pursuant to the merger agreement.

Q:

Why did I receive the shareholder's meeting notice and voting materials?

A:

HiSoft shareholders and ADS holders received the notice of HiSoft EGM and voting materials and were directed to this document because such HiSoft shareholders owned HiSoft shares as of the HiSoft share record date and such HiSoft ADS holders owned HiSoft ADSs as of the HiSoft ADS record date. VanceInfo shareholders and ADS holders received the notice of VanceInfo EGM and voting materials (including this joint proxy statement/prospectus) because such VanceInfo shareholders owned VanceInfo shares as of the VanceInfo share record date and such VanceInfo ADS holders owned VanceInfo ADSs as of the VanceInfo ADS record date.

If you are a HiSoft shareholder, you can vote your HiSoft shares without attending the HiSoft EGM in person by completing and returning the proxy card for the HiSoft EGM mailed to you. If you are a HiSoft ADS holder, you can vote your HiSoft ADSs without converting your HiSoft ADSs into HiSoft shares or attending the HiSoft EGM in person by completing and returning the ADS voting instruction card mailed to you.

If you are a VanceInfo shareholder, you can vote your VanceInfo shares without attending the VanceInfo EGM in person by completing and returning the proxy card for the VanceInfo EGM mailed to you. If you are a VanceInfo ADS holder, you can vote your VanceInfo ADSs without converting your VanceInfo ADSs into VanceInfo shares or attending the VanceInfo EGM in person by completing and returning the ADS Voting instruction card mailed to you.

Questions and Answers Relating to the Merger and Related Transactions

Q:    What is the merger?

A:

The merger is the strategic combination of HiSoft and VanceInfo pursuant to the merger agreement. Once the closing conditions under the merger agreement have been satisfied or waived, Merger Sub will merge with and into VanceInfo, with VanceInfo surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of HiSoft. Immediately thereafter, VanceInfo will be merged with and into Merger Sub II, with Merger Sub II surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of HiSoft (the "second step merger"). As a result of the merger, the VanceInfo ADSs will no longer be listed on the NYSE, VanceInfo will cease to be a publicly-traded company, the VanceInfo ADSs and the underlying VanceInfo shares will be deregistered under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and the VanceInfo ADS program will terminate. HiSoft anticipates that, immediately following the merger, the VanceInfo ADS holders and VanceInfo shareholders prior to the merger will own approximately 50% of the combined company's outstanding share capital on a fully diluted basis.

Q:

What will a holder of VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs receive in the merger?

A:

At the effective time of the merger, each outstanding VanceInfo share will be converted into the right to receive one HiSoft share (the "share exchange ratio") and each outstanding VanceInfo ADS will be converted into the right to receive one HiSoft ADS (the "ADS exchange ratio"). The 1-for-1 exchange ratios are subject to the completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment, as described in more detail under "The Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger—Merger Consideration" on page 101.

Q:

Can the value of the merger consideration to be received by holders of VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs change between now and the time the merger is completed?

A:

Yes. The 1-for-1 exchange ratios are fixed, whereas the value of the per share and per ADS merger consideration to be delivered to VanceInfo shareholders and ADS holders, respectively, under the merger agreement will fluctuate based on the trading price for HiSoft ADSs on NASDAQ. The market value of the HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs that VanceInfo shareholders and VanceInfo ADS holders will respectively receive in the merger may be different at the time the merger is completed than it was at the time the merger agreement was signed or will be at the time of the VanceInfo EGM or the time of the HiSoft EGM. As of September 27, 2012, the closing price of HiSoft ADSs on NASDAQ was US$10.26 per ADS. VanceInfo shareholders are urged to obtain current trading prices for HiSoft ADSs on the website of NASDAQ at http://www.nasdaq.com/ before voting. This website is not incorporated by reference in this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

Q:

How will the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment impact the existing HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs?

A:

If you are currently a HiSoft shareholder, following completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation, you will own one HiSoft common share for every 13.9482 HiSoft common shares you owned immediately prior to the completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation. The aggregate value of the HiSoft common shares held by each HiSoft shareholder will not change solely as a result of the HiSoft Share Consolidation or the HiSoft ADS Adjustment. Please see "The Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger—HiSoft Share Consolidation" for an illustration of the effect of the HiSoft Share Consolidation on HiSoft shareholders.

If you are currently a HiSoft ADS holder, following completion of the HiSoft ADS Adjustment, each HiSoft ADS you hold will represent one HiSoft share (instead of 19 HiSoft shares). The number of ADSs owned by each HiSoft ADS holder and the aggregate value of the HiSoft ADSs

2

owned by each HiSoft ADS holder will not change solely as a result of the HiSoft ADS Adjustment or the HiSoft Share Consolidation. Please see "The Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger—HiSoft ADS Adjustment" for an illustration of the effect of the HiSoft ADS Adjustment on HiSoft ADS holders.

Q:

When will the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment occur?

A:

HiSoft expects that the HiSoft Share Consolidation and the HiSoft ADS Adjustment will occur immediately prior to the effective time of the merger. Prior to that time, existing HiSoft shares will not be consolidated or otherwise affected, and existing HiSoft ADSs will continue to represent 19 HiSoft shares.

Q:

What steps must be taken by existing HiSoft shareholders and HiSoft ADS holders in connection with the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment?

A:

Promptly following the HiSoft Share Consolidation becoming effective, HiSoft will deliver a letter of transmittal to each HiSoft shareholder who holds certificates evidencing his or her HiSoft shares. This letter will explain the procedures for a HiSoft shareholder to surrender his or her existing certificates evidencing HiSoft shares in exchange for new certificates evidencing the new number of HiSoft shares owned by such HiSoft shareholder after completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation. Please see "The Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger—HiSoft Share Consolidation" for detailed description of the exchange procedures for certificates evidencing HiSoft shares in connection with the HiSoft Share Consolidation. If you are an existing HiSoft shareholder who owns uncertificated HiSoft shares, you do not need to take any action in connection with the HiSoft Share Consolidation. Following the HiSoft Share Consolidation, HiSoft's share registrar will update the HiSoft register of members to reflect the adjusted number of shares held by each existing HiSoft shareholder.

In addition, if you own HiSoft ADSs, you do not need to take any action in connection with the HiSoft Share Consolidation and the HiSoft ADS Adjustment. Following the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment becoming effective, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as the HiSoft depositary (the "HiSoft depositary"), will deliver additional American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs") evidencing HiSoft ADSs to the registered holders of ADRs. You may surrender to the HiSoft depositary any ADRs you hold and request replacement ADRs in accordance with the terms of the HiSoft Depositary Agreement, including the payment of any applicable fees to the HiSoft depositary.

Q:

Will holders of HiSoft shares or HiSoft ADSs have to pay brokerage commissions or depositary fees in connection with the HiSoft Share Consolidation or HiSoft ADS Adjustment?

A:

You will not have to pay brokerage commissions or depositary fees in connection with the HiSoft Share Consolidation or HiSoft ADS Adjustment. However, if your HiSoft ADSs are held in "street name" by your broker, bank or other nominee, you should contact them to to determine whether they will charge you any fees in connection with the HiSoft Share Consolidation or the HiSoft ADS Adjustment.

Q:

If the merger is completed, will the HiSoft ADSs to be delivered under the merger agreement be "listed" for trading?

A:

Yes. HiSoft ADSs are listed on NASDAQ under the trading symbol "HSFT." It is a condition to completion of the merger that the HiSoft ADSs to be delivered to VanceInfo ADS holders in connection with the merger be approved for listing on NASDAQ, subject to official notice of issuance. The combined company will be listed on NASDAQ under the new trading symbol "PACT", to be effective at the completion of the merger.

3

Q:

When do you expect the merger to be completed?

A:

HiSoft and VanceInfo are working toward completing the merger as quickly as possible and currently expect the merger to close in the fourth quarter of 2012. In order to complete the merger, VanceInfo must obtain shareholder authorization and approval of the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the merger at the VanceInfo EGM, HiSoft must obtain shareholder authorization and approval of the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Share Issuance and the HiSoft Articles Amendments at the HiSoft EGM, and the other closing conditions under the merger agreement must be satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms of the merger agreement.

Q:

How will VanceInfo's share options be treated in the merger?

A:

Each VanceInfo share option that is outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger, whether or not exercisable or vested, will, at the effective time of the merger, be assumed by HiSoft and be replaced by HiSoft with a new HiSoft share option. Each new HiSoft share option will be exercisable for that number of whole HiSoft shares (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of (1) the total number of VanceInfo shares subject to the former VanceInfo share option multiplied by (2) the share exchange ratio, at an exercise price per HiSoft share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the exercise price per share of the former VanceInfo share option by (y) the share exchange ratio. Each new HiSoft share option will otherwise continue to have, and will be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to the former VanceInfo share option immediately prior to the effective time of the merger.

Q:

How will VanceInfo's restricted share units be treated in the merger?

A:

Each VanceInfo restricted share unit that is outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger, whether vested or unvested, will, at the effective time of the merger, be assumed by HiSoft and be replaced by HiSoft with a number of new HiSoft restricted share units equal to the product of (1) the total number of VanceInfo shares subject to the former VanceInfo restricted share unit multiplied by (2) the share exchange ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole HiSoft share. Each new HiSoft restricted share unit will otherwise continue to have, and will be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to the former VanceInfo restricted share unit immediately prior to the effective time of the merger.

Q:

What is the purpose of the second step merger?

A:

The second step merger is intended to satisfy the requirements for the merger to be treated as a tax-free reorganization for U.S. tax purposes, subject to the certain conditions and qualifications described elsewhere in the joint proxy statement/prospectus. The second step merger will have no impact on the merger consideration to be issued by HiSoft to the VanceInfo shareholders and VanceInfo ADS holders.

Q:

What are the material tax consequences of the merger to VanceInfo shareholders and VanceInfo ADS holders?

A:

The parties intend that the merger will qualify as a reorganization for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, U.S. holders of VanceInfo shares or ADSs are not expected to recognize any gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes upon exchange of their VanceInfo shares and ADSs for HiSoft shares and ADSs pursuant to the merger. However, U.S. holders of VanceInfo shares or ADSs could be subject to special tax rules relating to "passive foreign investment companies" ("PFICs"), including taxation of any gain realized in the merger at ordinary income rates, if VanceInfo is or has been a PFIC. You should consult your own tax advisor for a full understanding of the tax consequences of the merger to you, including any U.S. federal income tax

consequences. Please see "Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger" beginning on page 94 for a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Merger, "Material PRC Income Tax Consequences of the Merger" beginning on page 98 for a summary of the material PRC income tax consequences of the Merger, and "Material Cayman Islands Tax Consequences of the Merger" beginning on page 100 for a summary of the material Cayman Islands tax consequences of the merger. You are urged to consult with your own tax advisor for a full understanding of how the merger will affect your U.S. federal, state, local, foreign and other taxes.

Q:

After the merger is completed, how will a holder of VanceInfo shares receive the merger consideration?

A:

Within five business days after the effective time of the merger, the combined company will mail to each registered holder of VanceInfo shares a form of letter of transmittal specifying how the delivery of the per share merger consideration to registered holders of VanceInfo shares will be effected and instructions for effecting the surrender of share certificates in exchange for the merger consideration. Upon surrender of a share certificate or a declaration of loss or non-receipt, together with a duly executed and completed letter of transmittal, each registered holder of VanceInfo shares will receive the per share merger consideration for each VanceInfo share cancelled, multiplied by the number of VanceInfo shares held by such holder. Please see "The Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger—Exchange Procedures for VanceInfo Shares and ADSs" beginning on page 107 for more information.

Q:

After the merger is completed, how will a holder of VanceInfo ADSs receive the merger consideration?

A:

Within five business days following the receipt by an exchange agent appointed by HiSoft with VanceInfo's approval of the aggregate amount of the per ADS merger consideration in respect of each VanceInfo share in respect of which a VanceInfo ADS has been issued, the exchange agent will mail to each registered holder of VanceInfo ADSs (other than holders of Excluded Shares) a form of letter of transmittal specifying the manner in which the delivery of the per ADS merger consideration to the registered holders of the VanceInfo ADSs will be effected and instructions for effecting the surrender of VanceInfo ADSs. Upon surrender of a VanceInfo American Depositary Receipt ("ADR") evidencing VanceInfo ADSs or a declaration of loss or non-receipt to the VanceInfo depositary, together with a duly executed and completed letter of transmittal, and subject to payment of required fees to the VanceInfo depositary and the HiSoft depositary, each registered holder of VanceInfo ADRs will receive the per ADS merger consideration for each VanceInfo ADS cancelled represented by the VanceInfo ADR held by such holder, multiplied by the number of VanceInfo ADSs represented by the VanceInfo ADR held by such holder.

If your VanceInfo ADSs are held in "street name" by your broker, bank or other nominee, you will not be required to take any action to receive the per ADS merger consideration as the exchange agent will arrange for the surrender of the VanceInfo ADSs and the remittance of the per ADS merger consideration with The Depository Trust Company (the clearance and settlement system for the VanceInfo ADSs) for distribution to your broker, bank or other nominee on your behalf. If you have any questions concerning the receipt of the per ADS merger consideration, please contact your broker, bank or other nominee.

Please see "The Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger—Exchange Procedures for VanceInfo Shares and ADSs" beginning on page 107 for more information.

The HiSoft depositary shall endeavor, in so far as practicable, to vote or cause to be voted the shares represented by your HiSoft ADSs in accordance with your voting instructions. If the HiSoft depositary timely receives valid voting instructions from a HiSoft ADS holder which fails to specify the manner in which the HiSoft depositary is to vote the shares represented by HiSoft ADSs held by such HiSoft ADS holder, such HiSoft ADS holder will be deemed to have instructed the HiSoft depositary to vote in favor of the items set forth in the voting instructions.

within the meaning of section 368(a) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1968, as amended, subject to the other conditions and qualifications described under "Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger".

Merger Consideration (page 102)

        The merger consideration that VanceInfo shareholders and VanceInfo ADS holders will receive in the merger is described in more detail in "The Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger—Merger Consideration" on page 101. In summary, if the merger is completed:

1.

other than as provided in paragraph (2) immediately below, each VanceInfo share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger (other than the Excluded Shares) shall be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive one HiSoft share (the "share exchange ratio"); and



2.

each VanceInfo ADS shall be surrendered in exchange for the right to receive one HiSoft ADS (the "ADS exchange ratio").

        We anticipate that, immediately following the merger, the VanceInfo ADS holders and VanceInfo shareholders prior to the merger will own approximately 50% of the combined company's outstanding shares and HiSoft shareholders and HiSoft ADS holders will own approximately 50% of the combined company's outstanding shares,

        The value of the merger consideration will fluctuate based on the trading price for HiSoft ADSs. Regardless of the trading price of HiSoft's ADSs on NASDAQ on the effective date of the merger, VanceInfo shareholders will receive one HiSoft share for each VanceInfo share they own and VanceInfo ADS holders will receive one HiSoft ADS for each VanceInfo ADS they own. The market value of the HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs that VanceInfo shareholders and VanceInfo ADS holders, respectively, will receive in the merger will increase or decrease as the trading price of HiSoft ADSs increases or decreases, and may be different at the time the merger is completed than it was at the time the merger agreement was signed or will be at the time of the VanceInfo EGM to approve the merger or the time of the HiSoft EGM to approve the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Share Issuance and the HiSoft Articles Amendments. The market price of HiSoft ADSs could be lower at any time prior to the completion of the merger or at any time thereafter than it was at the date of the merger agreement.

        The following table sets forth the average closing prices of HiSoft ADSs on NASDAQ and VanceInfo ADSs on the NYSE for the 90 calendar days and 30 calendar days ending on August 9, 2012 (the last full trading day prior to the public announcement by HiSoft and VanceInfo of the execution of the merger agreement), and the closing prices of HiSoft ADSs on NASDAQ and VanceInfo ADSs on the NYSE on August 9, 2012 and September 27, 2012 (the latest practicable trading day before the filing of this joint proxy statement/prospectus). In addition, the following table sets forth the implied value per VanceInfo ADS based on the ADS exchange ratio, after giving effect to the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment, for the corresponding periods or dates, as applicable, as well as the implied premium/(discount) to the average closing prices or closing price of VanceInfo ADSs for such corresponding periods or dates, as applicable, represented by such implied value per VanceInfo ADS.

(1)

Each HiSoft ADS represents 19 HiSoft shares.

(2)

Each VanceInfo ADS represents one VanceInfo share.

(3)

Calculated by (i) multiplying the closing price of HiSoft ADSs on NASDAQ on the relevant date or the average closing prices of HiSoft ADSs on NASDAQ for the relevant period, as applicable, by the ADS exchange ratio of one, and dividing this amount by (ii) 1.3622, which represents the implied HiSoft ADS split ratio determined by dividing 19 (the number of HiSoft common shares currently represented by one HiSoft ADS) by 13.9482 (the number of HiSoft common shares to be consolidated into one HiSoft common share pursuant to the HiSoft Share Consolidation).

(4)

Implied premium/(discount) represented by implied value per VanceInfo ADS.

(5)

Average closing price during the relevant period.

(6)

Closing price on the relevant date.

        The market prices of the HiSoft ADSs and VanceInfo ADSs are likely to fluctuate prior to consummation of the merger and cannot be predicted. You are urged to obtain current trading prices for HiSoft ADSs and VanceInfo ADSs.

Treatment of VanceInfo Equity Awards (page 103)

        Each VanceInfo share option that is outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger, whether or not exercisable or vested, will, at the effective time of the merger, be assumed by HiSoft and be replaced by HiSoft with a new HiSoft share option. Each new HiSoft share option will be exercisable for that number of whole HiSoft shares (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of (1) the total number of VanceInfo shares subject to the former VanceInfo share option multiplied by (2) the share exchange ratio, at an exercise price per HiSoft share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the exercise price per share of the former VanceInfo share option by (y) the share exchange ratio. Each new HiSoft share option will otherwise continue to have, and will be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to the former VanceInfo share option immediately prior to the effective time of the merger.

        Each VanceInfo restricted share unit that is outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger, whether vested or unvested, will, at the effective time of the merger, be assumed by HiSoft and be replaced by HiSoft with a number of new HiSoft restricted share units equal to the product of (1) the total number of VanceInfo shares subject to the former VanceInfo restricted share unit multiplied by (2) the share exchange ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole HiSoft share. Each new HiSoft restricted share unit will otherwise continue to have, and will be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to the former VanceInfo restricted share unit immediately prior to the effective time of the merger.

Any action or request by the Transition Management Committee must be unanimously approved in writing by each member of the Transition Management Committee.

It is a condition to completion of the merger that the HiSoft ADSs to be delivered to VanceInfo ADS holders in connection with the merger be approved for listing on the NASDAQ, subject to official notice of issuance. HiSoft will use its reasonable best efforts to cause any HiSoft ADSs to be issued in connection with the merger to be approved for listing on NASDAQ.

Delisting of VanceInfo ADSs (page 101)

Material Tax Consequences of the Merger

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences (page 94)

        The merger is intended to qualify as a reorganization under section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the "Internal Revenue Code") for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Assuming that the merger qualifies as a reorganization under section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and VanceInfo is not and has not been a "passive foreign investment company" for U.S. federal income tax purposes (a "PFIC"), VanceInfo shareholders will not recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes on the exchange of their VanceInfo shares for HiSoft shares and VanceInfo ADS holders will not recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes on the exchange of their VanceInfo ADSs for HiSoft ADSs. HiSoft and VanceInfo cannot assure VanceInfo shareholders and VanceInfo ADS holders that the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") will agree with the treatment of the merger as a reorganization under section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. Tax matters are complicated, and the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the merger to each VanceInfo shareholder or each VanceInfo ADS holder will depend on the facts of each holder's situation. VanceInfo shareholders and VanceInfo ADS holders are urged to read the discussion under" Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger" and to consult their tax advisors for a full understanding of the tax consequences of their participation in the merger.

Material PRC Income Tax Consequences (page 98)

        VanceInfo does not believe that it would be considered as a PRC resident enterprise under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law (the "EIT Law") or that the gain, if any, recognized on the receipt of the merger consideration for VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs should otherwise be subject to PRC withholding tax to holders of such VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs that are not PRC tax residents. If, however the PRC tax authorities were to determine that VanceInfo should be considered as a PRC tax resident under the EIT Law or that the receipt of the merger consideration for VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs should otherwise be subject to PRC withholding tax, then a gain recognized on the receipt of the merger consideration for VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs pursuant to the merger by VanceInfo shareholders or VanceInfo ADS holders, respectively, who are non-PRC tax resident enterprises under the EIT Law could be treated as PRC-sourced income that would be subject to PRC withholding tax at a rate of 10%, unless otherwise reduced or exempted pursuant to an applicable tax treaty. HiSoft's and VanceInfo's current understanding is that none of HiSoft, Merger Sub or VanceInfo will be required to deduct or withhold any amount from the merger consideration under any applicable PRC laws. In the event that circumstances change and a deduction or withholding is required, each of the surviving company, VanceInfo, HiSoft and the exchange agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to the merger agreement such amounts as it reasonably determines is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any applicable tax laws of the PRC. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate governmental entity by the surviving company, VanceInfo, HiSoft or the exchange agent, as the case may be, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of the merger agreement as having been paid to the holder of VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs in respect

22

to which such deduction and withholding was made by the surviving company or HiSoft, as the case may be. In the event that deduction or withholding in respect of PRC tax is necessary, HiSoft and VanceInfo will revise this joint proxy statement/prospectus to describe the proposed deduction or withholding, and HiSoft will file with the SEC an amendment to its registration statement on Form F-4, which will include the revised joint proxy statement/prospectus. You should consult your own tax advisor for a full understanding of the tax consequences of the merger to you, including any PRC tax consequences. Please see "Material PRC Income Tax Consequences of the Merger" beginning on page 98 for additional information.

Material Cayman Islands Tax Consequences (page 100)

        The Cayman Islands currently has no form of income, corporate or capital gains tax and no estate duty, inheritance tax or gift tax. No taxes, fees or charges will payable (either by direct assessment or withholding) to the Cayman Islands government or other taxing authority in the Cayman Islands under the laws of the Cayman Islands in respect of the merger or the receipt of the merger consideration by VanceInfo shareholders or VanceInfo ADS holders under the terms of the merger agreement. This is subject to the qualification that (1) Cayman Islands stamp duty may be payable if any original transaction documents, including the merger agreement, are brought to or executed in the Cayman Islands; and (2) registration fees will be payable to the Cayman Islands Registrar of Companies to register the plan of merger. You should consult your own tax advisor for a full understanding of the tax consequences of the merger to you, including any Cayman Islands tax consequences. Please see "Material Cayman Islands Tax Consequences of the Merger" beginning on page 100 for additional information.

The Extraordinary General Meeting of HiSoft Shareholders (page 49)

        HiSoft shareholders will be asked to vote on the following proposal at the HiSoft EGM:

•

to approve the consolidation the share capital of HiSoft in which every 13.9482 issued and unissued common shares, par value US$0.0001 per share, of HiSoft would be consolidated into one common share, par value US$0.00139482 per share, of HiSoft (such consolidation of the share capital of HiSoft, which is referred to in this joint proxy statement/prospectus as the HiSoft Share Consolidation;

•

to approve an increase the authorized share capital of HiSoft to US$167,378.40 divided into 120,000,000 common shares, par value US$0.00139482 per share, by the creation of an additional 57,482,973 common shares, par value US$0.00139482 per share, each to rank pari passu in all respects with the existing common shares, which is referred to in this joint proxy statement/prospectus as the HiSoft Capital Increase;

•

to approve the issuance of HiSoft common shares, par value US$0.00139482 per share, including HiSoft shares underlying HiSoft American depositary shares that constitute the consideration for the merger, which is referred to in this joint proxy statement/prospectus as the HiSoft Share Issuance;

•

to amend the memorandum and articles of association of HiSoft to change its name to

in Chinese and "Pactera Technology International Ltd." in English and to eliminate the grant of the casting vote to the chairman of the meeting of the board of directors, in the case of an equality of votes, which is referred to in this joint proxy statement/ prospectus as the HiSoft Articles Amendments; and

•

to approve any motion to adjourn or postpone the HiSoft EGM to another time or place, if necessary, to solicit additional proxies.

        The first four proposals listed above relating to the merger are conditioned upon each other and the approval of each such proposal is required for the completion of the merger.

23

        No business may be transacted at the HiSoft EGM unless a quorum is present. If a quorum is not present, or if fewer shares are voted in favor of the proposals set forth above than is required, to allow additional time for obtaining additional proxies, the HiSoft EGM may be adjourned by that chairman of the meeting, which will be the Chairman of the HiSoft Board. No notice of an adjourned meeting need be given unless the adjournment is for more than 14 days or, if after the adjournment, a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, in which case a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each shareholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

The HiSoft Board unanimously recommends that HiSoft shareholders vote "FOR" all of the proposals set forth above, as more fully described under "The Extraordinary General Meeting of HiSoft Shareholders" beginning on page 49.

Vote Required at the HiSoft EGM; VanceInfo Voting Agreements (page 49)

        Assuming a quorum, the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase and the HiSoft Share Issuance must be approved by an affirmative vote by holders of HiSoft shares representing a majority of the votes cast by such shareholders of HiSoft entitled to do so, voting in person or by proxy, at the HiSoft EGM. The HiSoft Articles Amendments must be authorized and approved by an affirmative vote of holders of HiSoft shares representing at least two-thirds of the votes cast by such shareholders of HiSoft entitled to do so, voting in person or by proxy, at the HiSoft EGM.

        As an inducement for VanceInfo to enter into the merger agreement, certain shareholders of HiSoft, being Mr. Tiak Koon Loh and Granite Global Ventures (Q.P.), L.P., Granite Global Ventures L.P., Granite Global Ventures II L.P. and GGV II Entrepreneurs Fund L.P. (collectively "Granite Global Ventures", and together with Mr. Loh, the "HiSoft Voting Shareholders"), entered into voting agreements with and in favor of VanceInfo on August 10, 2012 (the "VanceInfo Voting Agreements") contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of the merger agreement. As of September 25, 2012, an aggregate of 104,504,749 HiSoft shares (including 28,273,710 HiSoft shares underlying vested and unvested HiSoft options and restricted share awards), constituting approximately 15.9% of the total outstanding HiSoft shares (based on 659,376,977 HiSoft shares (including HiSoft shares held by HiSoft in connection with its equity incentive plans) outstanding as set forth in the HiSoft register of members dated September 25, 2012), approximately 15.9% of the aggregate voting power of HiSoft shares (based on 659,376,977 HiSoft shares (including HiSoft shares held by HiSoft in connection with its equity incentive plans) outstanding as set forth in the HiSoft register of members dated September 25, 2012), were subject to the VanceInfo Voting Agreements. Any HiSoft shares, HiSoft ADSs or other voting share capital of HiSoft with respect to which any HiSoft Voting Shareholder subsequently acquires beneficial ownership, including any HiSoft shares issued upon the exercise of any HiSoft share option or HiSoft restricted stock award or the conversion, exercise or exchange of any other securities into or for any HiSoft shares or HiSoft ADSs or otherwise will automatically become subject to the VanceInfo Voting Agreements.

The Extraordinary General Meeting of VanceInfo Shareholders (page 54)

        VanceInfo shareholders will be asked to vote on the following proposal at the VanceInfo EGM:

•

to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger; and

•

to authorize the chairman of the VanceInfo EGM to adjourn the VanceInfo EGM in order to allow VanceInfo to solicit additional proxies in favor of the merger agreement related proposal in the event that there are insufficient proxies received at the time of the VanceInfo EGM.

        No business may be transacted at the VanceInfo EGM unless a quorum is present. If a quorum is not present, or if fewer shares are voted in favor of the proposals set forth above than is required, to allow additional time for obtaining additional proxies, the VanceInfo EGM may be adjourned by that chairman of the meeting, which will be the Chairman of the VanceInfo Board. No notice of an adjourned meeting need be given unless the adjournment is for more than 14 days or, if after the adjournment, a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, in which case a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each shareholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

        The VanceInfo Board unanimously recommends that VanceInfo shareholders vote "FOR" all of the proposals set forth above, as more fully described under "The Extraordinary General Meeting of VanceInfo Shareholders" beginning on page 54.

Vote Required at the VanceInfo EGM; HiSoft Voting Agreement (page 54)

        Assuming a quorum, the resolution to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, must be approved by an affirmative vote by holders of VanceInfo shares representing at least two-thirds of the votes cast by such shareholders of VanceInfo entitled to do so, voting in person or by proxy, at the VanceInfo EGM and the resolution. Assuming a quorum, the resolution to authorize the chairman of the VanceInfo EGM to adjourn the VanceInfo EGM in order to allow VanceInfo to solicit additional proxies in favor of the this resolution in the event that there are insufficient proxies received at the time of the VanceInfo EGM must be approved by an affirmative vote by holders of VanceInfo shares representing a majority of the votes cast.

        As an inducement for HiSoft to enter into the merger agreement, certain shareholders of VanceInfo, including Mr. Chris Shuning Chen, Button Software Ltd. and Tairon Investments Limited (the "VanceInfo Voting Shareholders") entered into a voting agreement with and in favor of HiSoft on August 10, 2012 (the "HiSoft Voting Agreement") contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of the merger agreement. As of September 25, 2012, an aggregate of 3,980,666 VanceInfo shares (including 212,746 VanceInfo shares underlying vested and unvested VanceInfo share options and VanceInfo restricted share units and 1,250,000 VanceInfo ADSs subject to certain variable prepaid forward arrangements), constituting approximately 8.9% of the total outstanding shares of VanceInfo (based on 44,833,928 VanceInfo shares (including VanceInfo shares held by VanceInfo in connection with its equity incentive plans) outstanding as set forth in the VanceInfo register of members dated September 25, 2012), and 8.9% of the voting power of VanceInfo (based on 44,833,928 VanceInfo shares (including VanceInfo shares held by VanceInfo in connection with its equity incentive plans) outstanding as set forth in the VanceInfo register of members dated September 25, 2012), were subject to the HiSoft Voting Agreement. Any VanceInfo shares, VanceInfo ADSs or other voting share capital of VanceInfo with respect to which any VanceInfo Voting Shareholder subsequently acquires beneficial ownership, including any VanceInfo shares issued upon the exercise of any VanceInfo share option or VanceInfo restricted share unit or the conversion, exercise or exchange of any other securities into or

25

for any VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs or otherwise will automatically become subject to the HiSoft Voting Agreement.

SUMMARY UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

        The following table presents selected unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information about HiSoft's consolidated balance sheet and statements of operations, after giving effect to the merger with VanceInfo. The information under "Statement of Operating Income Data" in the table below gives effect to the merger as if it had been consummated on January 1, 2011, the beginning of the earliest period presented. The information under "Balance Sheet Data" in the table below assumes the merger had been consummated on June 30, 2012. This unaudited pro forma combined financial information was prepared using the acquisition method of accounting with HiSoft considered the acquirer of VanceInfo. See "The Merger—Accounting Treatment" on page 94.

        The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet data reflect a preliminary allocation of the consideration to be paid by HiSoft in the merger to VanceInfo assets and liabilities based upon their estimated fair values as of June 30, 2012. The unaudited condensed combined pro forma balance sheet data does not allocate the consideration to be paid by HiSoft in the merger to VanceInfo's individual assets and liabilities based upon their estimated fair values as of the date of completion of the merger, because such an allocation depends upon certain valuations and other studies that have not progressed to a stage where there is sufficient information to make meaningful estimations and such a determination of fair values cannot be made prior to the completion of the merger. The parties expect that a completed purchase price allocation would likely result in recognizing intangible assets in addition to those reflected in the historical consolidated balance sheets of VanceInfo, the amortization of which would result in expense in future periods after the consummation of the merger. The parties also expect that a completed purchase price allocation would likely increase the carrying value of certain recorded assets and liabilities of VanceInfo from their historical book value to their fair value, which would reduce net income in periods following the merger from those reflected in the historical financial statements of VanceInfo. In addition to the potential adjustments discussed herein, the parties believe there may be certain minor differences in the accounting policies applied by HiSoft and VanceInfo and they are in the process of identifying the potential differences. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information contained herein makes no adjustments to reflect the effect of such differences in accounting policies.

        The parties expect to incur significant costs and achieve significant revenue and other synergies in connection with integrating the operations of HiSoft and VanceInfo. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information set forth below does not reflect the costs of any integration activities or benefits that may result from realization of future cost savings from operating efficiencies, or any revenue, tax, or other synergies expected to result from the merger. Additionally, while the parties have estimated certain merger-related transaction costs, which are reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information set forth below, this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect adjusting entries to record certain potential additional expenses (e.g., share based compensation) as a result of the merger as additional time and effort will be required to more accurately estimate their impact and these amounts will materially change through to the effective time of the merger. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are being provided for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to represent what the actual consolidated results of operations or the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the combined company would have been had the merger occurred on the dates assumed, nor are they necessarily indicative of the combined company's future consolidated results of operations or consolidated balance sheet.

COMPARATIVE UNAUDITED PER SHARE DATA

        The following table presents, for the year ended December 31, 2011 and for the six months ended June 30, 2012, selected historical per share and per ADS data of HiSoft and VanceInfo, as well as similar information reflecting the combination of HiSoft and VanceInfo as if the proposed merger had occurred on the first day of the periods presented and as a result was effective for the periods presented, which we refer to as "pro forma combined" information. The pro forma combined VanceInfo equivalent per share and ADS data presented below is calculated by multiplying the pro forma consolidated per share and ADS data by the exchange ratio of one.

        The pro forma combined information presented below is derived from the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information as set forth in "Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information" beginning on page 161 of this joint proxy statement/prospectus and is provided for informational purposes only and is not necessarily an indication of the results that would have been achieved had the proposed merger been completed as of the first day of the periods presented or that may be achieved by the combined company in the future. The December 31, 2011 selected comparative per share and per ADS information of HiSoft and VanceInfo set forth below has been derived from the respective audited consolidated financial statements. You should read the information in this section along with the historical consolidated financial statements of HiSoft and VanceInfo, respectively, and accompanying notes for the periods referred to above included in the documents described under "Where You Can Find More Information" and "Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference" on pages 199 and 200, respectively. The audited historical consolidated financial statements for HiSoft and VanceInfo have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The June 30, 2012 selected comparative per share and per ADS information of HiSoft and VanceInfo set forth below has been derived from the respective unaudited management accounts of HiSoft and VanceInfo, which are not included in this joint proxy statement/prospectus. The pro forma combined information presented below is being provided for illustrative purposes only and does not purport to represent what the actual net income (loss) per HiSoft share or HiSoft ADS would have been had the merger occurred on the dates assumed, nor are they necessarily indicative of HiSoft's future actual net income (loss) per HiSoft share or HiSoft ADS. The historical per share data has not been revised to reflect the HiSoft Share Consolidation or HiSoft ADS Adjustment in accordance with the merger agreement.

RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information included and incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus, including the matters addressed in the section entitled "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements," you should carefully consider the following risks before deciding whether to vote for the proposals to approve the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Share Issuance and the HiSoft Articles Amendments, in the case of HiSoft shareholders, or for the proposal to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, in the case of VanceInfo shareholders.

You should be aware that investing in HiSoft shares or HiSoft ADSs involves risks, some of which are related to the merger, and you should carefully read and consider the risks associated with each of the businesses of HiSoft and VanceInfo because these risks will also affect the combined company following the merger. These risks can be found in the annual reports on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2011 for each of HiSoft and VanceInfo, as such risks may be updated or supplemented in each company's subsequently filed reports on Form 6-K, to the extent incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus. You should also read and consider the other information in this joint proxy statement/prospectus and the other documents HiSoft or VanceInfo has filed or furnished to the SEC and which are incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus. See the section entitled "Where You Can Find More Information" beginning on page 199.

Risks Related to the Merger

The market price of the HiSoft ADSs may decline during the period of time between the date of the merger agreement and the date on which VanceInfo shareholders and VanceInfo ADS holders actually receive HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs pursuant to the merger agreement.

        At the effective time of the merger, (1) each outstanding VanceInfo share will be converted into the right to receive fixed consideration consisting of one HiSoft share, and (2) each outstanding VanceInfo ADS will be converted into the right to receive fixed consideration consisting of one HiSoft ADS, except that the Excluded Shares shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange therefore.

        In regards to the HiSoft share and HiSoft ADS portion of the merger consideration to be delivered to VanceInfo shareholders and VanceInfo ADS holders, respectively, under the merger agreement, the share exchange ratio and the ADS exchange ratio are fixed and will not be adjusted to reflect changes in the market value of HiSoft ADSs. The merger agreement does not provide for any price-based termination right.

        The market price of the HiSoft ADSs may fluctuate or decline during the period of time between the date of the merger agreement and the date on which VanceInfo shareholders and VanceInfo ADS holders entitled to receive HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs, respectively, pursuant to the merger agreement, actually receive HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs. These fluctuations may be caused by changes in the businesses, operations, financial results and prospects of HiSoft and VanceInfo, market expectations of the likelihood that the merger will be completed and the timing of the completion of the merger, general market and economic conditions or other factors both within or beyond the control of HiSoft or VanceInfo. At the time they cast their votes regarding the authorization and approval of the merger agreement, VanceInfo shareholders and ADS holders will not know the actual market value of the HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs they will receive when the merger is finally completed. The actual market value of the HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs, when received by VanceInfo shareholders and VanceInfo ADS holders, will depend on the market value of those HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs on that date. This market value may be less than the value of the HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs at the time the merger agreement was signed or when the VanceInfo EGM is held. For example, during the first six months of 2012, the market price of HiSoft shares ranged from a low of US$9.26 to a high

39

of US$16.43, all as reported on NASDAQ. See "Comparative Market Price and Dividend Information" on page 172.

Failure to timely complete the proposed merger could disrupt HiSoft's and VanceInfo's business plans and operations and have a material adverse effect on the trading price of each company's ADSs.

        Although HiSoft and VanceInfo expect to complete the merger promptly after receiving VanceInfo shareholder approval and HiSoft shareholder approval at their respective shareholder meetings, the transaction is subject to certain customary closing conditions.

        The companies' inability to complete the merger on the expected schedule or at all would likely disrupt their operations and require the companies to revise their respective business plans, and could otherwise have a material adverse effect on each company's business and on the trading price of each company's ADSs. Moreover, if the merger is not completed, both companies will be subject to several risks, including having to pay certain costs relating to the merger, the possibility of one of the parties needing to pay a significant termination fee to the other party, and the management teams of HiSoft and VanceInfo having their focus diverted from pursuing other opportunities that could be beneficial to HiSoft or VanceInfo, in each case, without realizing any of the benefits that might have resulted had the merger been completed.

The issuance of HiSoft Shares to VanceInfo Shareholders in the merger will substantially reduce the percentage interests of HiSoft Shareholders.

        If the merger is completed, HiSoft will issue approximately 42,573,566 shares of HiSoft shares in the merger based on the number of VanceInfo shares outstanding on September 25, 2012. Based on this estimated number of shares, VanceInfo shareholders before the merger will own, in the aggregate, approximately 50% of the HiSoft shares outstanding immediately after the merger. The issuance of HiSoft shares to VanceInfo shareholders in the merger and to holders of assumed options and restricted share units to acquire VanceInfo shares will substantially reduce the percentage interests of HiSoft shareholders.

Certain directors and executive officers of VanceInfo and HiSoft have agreements and arrangements that may result in their having interests in the merger different from, or in addition to, those of VanceInfo shareholders and HiSoft shareholders generally.

        Certain directors and executive officers of VanceInfo and HiSoft have agreements or arrangements that provide them with interests in the merger that are different than those of HiSoft's or VanceInfo's other shareholders and ADS holders. For example, Mr. Tiak Koon Loh, the Chief Executive Officer and a director of HiSoft, will become Chief Executive Officer of the combined company, and Mr. Chris Shuning Chen, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chairman of the board of directors of VanceInfo, will become the Non-Executive Chairman of the board of directors of the combined company. Mr. Loh and Mr. Chen have agreed to an allocation of roles and responsibilities between them as well as certain principles for selecting a successor Chief Executive Officer in the event that Mr. Loh no longer serves in this role. Mr. Chen has agreed to align his vote as a director of the combined company with Mr. Loh on matters of strategy and operation of the combined company. In addition, up to three other current HiSoft directors and up to three other current VanceInfo directors may serve on the board of directors of the combined company. As of the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, neither HiSoft nor VanceInfo has made a determination as to which individuals (other than Mr. Loh and Mr. Chen) will be appointed to the board of directors of the combined company.

        Mr. Loh and Mr. Chen also have been appointed to the Transition Management Committee, which adopted resolutions after the execution of the merger agreement that set forth certain principles relating to, among other matters, new equity compensation awards for key executives of the combined

40

company, certain compensation and benefits arrangements for the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the combined company and potential adjustments to the existing HiSoft and VanceInfo equity compensation plans following completion of the merger. For example, HiSoft and VanceInfo intend to establish a pool of equity and equity-based awards representing, in aggregate, up to 5% of the fully-diluted share capital of HiSoft following the completion of the merger to be allocated to key executives of the combined company. A portion of such pool representing 0.5% of the fully-diluted equity of the combined company will be allocated to the Non-Executive Chairman of the combined company and former VanceInfo key executives as determined by Mr. Chen, and a portion of such pool representing 4.5% of the fully-diluted equity of the combined company will be allocated to key executives of the combined company as determined by Mr. Loh, with the allocation to the Non-Executive Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer of the combined company to be similar.

        The Transition Management Committee resolutions also provide, among other matters, that, for a period of three years following the completion of the merger, the salary remuneration of the Non-Executive Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer of the combined company will be the same, and the aggregate bonus and other compensation (including options, restricted share unit awards and other share-based compensation) for the Non-Executive Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer of the combined company will be the same, provided that such salary, bonus and other compensation will be structured in a manner which does not adversely affect the combined company's operating results and will conform to general practices. In addition, following the completion of the merger, the Non-Executive Chairman of the combined company may be granted a special bonus and/or share-based award following the completion of the merger in consideration of his contribution to a successful completion of the merger and successful transition and integration of VanceInfo and HiSoft, and subject to the combined company's enhanced performance, the Chief Executive Officer of the combined company will be granted a bonus and/or additional share-based awards. Furthermore, the Transition Management Committee will determine any necessary adjustments to the terms of the HiSoft and VanceInfo equity compensation and incentive plans to, among other matters, ensure consistency with respect to material terms and conditions of such plans, which may result in directors and executive officers who are participants in such plans receiving vesting or other terms that are more favorable to them than immediately before the effective time of the merger. The various governance, compensation and benefits arrangements contemplated by these Transition Management Committee resolutions are subject to approval by the compensation committee and the board of directors of the combined company following the completion of the merger.

        For a detailed description of such agreements and arrangements and further information about the resolutions authorized and approved by the Transition Management Committee, please see "The Merger—Interests of VanceInfo's and HiSoft's Directors and Executive Officers in the Merger" beginning on page 88 and for more information. Each of the HiSoft Board and the VanceInfo Board was aware of these agreements and arrangements during its deliberations of the merits of the merger and determining to recommend that HiSoft shareholders and ADS holders and the VanceInfo shareholders and ADS holders, respectively, approve the matters upon which they are being asked to vote.

The merger agreement contains provisions that could discourage a potential competing acquirer that might be willing to pay more to acquire HiSoft or VanceInfo.

        The merger agreement contains "no shop" provisions that restrict HiSoft's and VanceInfo's ability to solicit or facilitate competing proposals regarding a merger or similar transaction with another party. Further, there are only limited exceptions to HiSoft's or VanceInfo's agreement that their respective board of directors will not withdraw or modify its recommendation regarding the merger. Further, even if HiSoft or VanceInfo withdraws or modifies its recommendation in accordance with the merger agreement, it would still be required to submit each of its merger-related proposals to a vote at the

41

HiSoft EGM or VanceInfo EGM, as the case may be. In addition, the other party generally has an opportunity to modify the terms of the merger in response to any competing proposals before the board of directors of the company that has received the competing proposal may withdraw or modify its recommendation with respect to the merger. If HiSoft or VanceInfo withdraws or modifies its recommendation, it would be required to pay the other party a US$30 million termination fee if the other party elects to terminate the merger agreement. If a third party publicly makes a competing proposal with either HiSoft or VanceInfo before the HiSoft EGM or VanceInfo EGM, as the case may be, and HiSoft's shareholders or VanceInfo's shareholders, as the case may be, do not approve the transactions, it will be required to pay the other party a US$15 million termination fee. If HiSoft's shareholders or VanceInfo's shareholders fail to approve the transactions, HiSoft or VanceInfo, as the case may be, would be required to pay a US$4 million termination fee to the other party.

        See "The Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger—Termination of the Merger Agreement" on page 119 and "The Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger—Termination Fees" on page 121.

        These provisions could discourage a potential competing acquirer from considering or proposing that acquisition, even if it were prepared to pay consideration with a higher value than that proposed to be paid in the merger, or might result in a potential competing acquirer proposing to pay a lower per share price than it might otherwise have proposed to pay because of the added expense of the applicable termination fee.

If the IRS were to successfully challenge the qualification of the merger as a reorganization under section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code or if VanceInfo is or has been a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, certain adverse tax consequences affecting the U.S. Holders of VanceInfo shares and VanceInfo ADSs who respectively receive HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs in the merger may result, including such holders of VanceInfo shares and VanceInfo ADSs needing to recognize gain or loss with respect to the VanceInfo shares and VanceInfo ADSs surrendered in the merger. Adverse tax consequences could also result if VanceInfo is or has been a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

        The merger is intended to qualify as a reorganization under section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If the merger qualifies as a reorganization under section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and VanceInfo is not and has not been a PFIC, U.S holders of VanceInfo shares will not recognize gain or loss on the exchange of their VanceInfo shares for HiSoft shares and U.S. holders of VanceInfo ADSs will not recognize gain or loss on the exchange of their VanceInfo ADSs for HiSoft ADSs. If VanceInfo is or has been a PFIC then U.S. holders could be required to recognize any gain realized under special rules applicable to shareholders of PFICs, including ordinary income treatment of the gain. Although VanceInfo does not believe it is or has been a PFIC, because PFIC status is a fact-intensive determination made on an annual basis, no assurance can be given that VanceInfo is not or has not been a PFIC for any year.

        HiSoft and VanceInfo cannot assure U.S. holders of VanceInfo shares and U.S. holders of VanceInfo ADSs that the IRS will agree with the treatment of the merger as a reorganization under section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. If the IRS successfully challenges the qualification of the merger as a reorganization under section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, U.S. holders of VanceInfo shares and U.S. holders of VanceInfo ADSs would generally be required to recognize gain or loss with respect to the VanceInfo shares and VanceInfo ADSs surrendered in the merger in an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value, as of the effective date of the merger, of the HiSoft shares or HiSoft ADSs received or to be received in the merger and the shareholders' adjusted tax basis in their surrendered VanceInfo shares or ADSs. Generally, in such event, the tax basis in the HiSoft shares or HiSoft ADSs received by U.S. holders of VanceInfo shares and U.S. holders of VanceInfo ADSs would equal their fair market value as of the effective date of the merger, and the holding period for the HiSoft shares or HiSoft ADSs would begin on the day after the merger.

42

        Tax matters are complicated and the tax consequences of the merger to each U.S. Holder of VanceInfo shares and VanceInfo ADSs will depend on the facts of each holder's situation. U.S. holders of VanceInfo shares and VanceInfo ADSs are urged to read the discussion under "Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger" beginning on page 94 of this joint proxy statement/prospectus and to consult their tax advisors for a full understanding of the tax consequences of their participation in the merger.

Risks Related to the Combined Business Following Completion of the Merger

The anticipated synergies and benefits of the merger may not be realized fully or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected, either of which could adversely affect the combined company's results following the merger.

        HiSoft and VanceInfo entered into the merger agreement with the expectation that the proposed merger will result in various synergies and benefits. See "The Merger—Reasons for the Merger and Recommendation of the HiSoft Board" and "The Merger—Reasons for the Merger and Recommendation of the VanceInfo Board." Some of those benefits may not be achieved or, if achieved, may not be achieved in the time frame in which they are expected and/or to the extent to which they are expected. Whether these anticipated benefits are realized depends on future events and circumstances, some of which are beyond the parties' control. In addition, the potential synergies that HiSoft and VanceInfo anticipate due to an integration of the two companies may not be realized.

The failure to integrate successfully the businesses of HiSoft and VanceInfo in the expected time frame would adversely affect the business of the combined company following the merger.

        The merger involves the integration of two companies that have previously operated independently. The success of the merger will depend, in large part, on the ability of the combined company following the merger to realize the anticipated benefits, including synergies, cost savings, innovation and operational efficiencies, from combining the businesses of HiSoft and VanceInfo. To realize these anticipated benefits, the businesses of HiSoft and VanceInfo must be successfully integrated. This integration will be complex and time-consuming. The failure to integrate successfully and to manage successfully the challenges presented by the integration process may result in the combined company not achieving the anticipated benefits of the merger.

        Potential difficulties that may be encountered in the integration process include the following:

•

the inability to successfully integrate the businesses of HiSoft and VanceInfo in a manner that permits the combined company to achieve the full revenue and cost savings anticipated to result from the merger;

•

complexities associated with managing the larger, more complex, combined business;

•

integrating personnel from the two companies while maintaining focus on providing consistent, high-quality service to customers of both companies;

•

potential unknown liabilities and unforeseen expenses or delays associated with the merger;

•

performance shortfalls at one or both of the companies as a result of the diversion of management's attention caused by completing the merger and integrating the companies' operations; and

•

the disruption of, or the loss of momentum in, each company's ongoing business or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies.

43

The market price of the HiSoft ADSs may decline following completion of the merger.

        The market price of HiSoft ADSs may decline at any time following the completion of the merger if, among other reasons:

•

the synergies expected by HiSoft and VanceInfo are not achieved;

•

the effect of the merger with VanceInfo on the financial results of HiSoft is not consistent with the expectations of financial analysts or investors; or

•

VanceInfo ADS holders sell a significant number of HiSoft ADSs after consummation of the merger, or VanceInfo shareholders who receive HiSoft shares under the merger agreement later sell a significant number of HiSoft ADSs in the open market.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information included in this joint proxy statement/prospectus is preliminary and the actual financial condition and results of operations after the merger may differ materially.

        The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information in this joint proxy statement/prospectus are being provided for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to represent what the actual consolidated results of operations or the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the combined company would have been had the merger occurred on the dates assumed, nor are they necessarily indicative of the combined company's future consolidated results of operations or consolidated balance sheet. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet data reflect a preliminary allocation of the consideration to be paid by HiSoft in the merger to VanceInfo assets and liabilities based upon their estimated fair values as of June 30, 2012. The unaudited condensed combined pro forma balance sheet data do not allocate the consideration to be paid by HiSoft in the merger to VanceInfo assets and liabilities based upon their estimated fair values as of the date of completion of the merger, because such an allocation depends upon certain valuations and other studies that have not progressed to a stage where there is sufficient information to make meaningful estimations and such a determination of fair values cannot be made prior to the completion of the merger. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are based upon currently available information and estimates and assumptions that HiSoft's management and VanceInfo's management believe are reasonable as of the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus. Any of the factors underlying these estimates and assumptions may change or prove to be materially different, and the estimates and assumptions may not be representative of facts existing at the closing date of the merger.

Certain client contracts of HiSoft and VanceInfo contain provisions which may be triggered as a result of the merger and, if triggered, could adversely affect the business and future profitability of the combined company.

        HiSoft and VanceInfo contracts with certain of their respective clients provide for downward revision of the prices under certain circumstances. For example, certain client contracts provide that if during the term of the contract HiSoft or VanceInfo, as the case may be, were to offer similar services to any other client on terms and conditions more favorable than those provided in the contract, HiSoft or VanceInfo, as the case may be, may be required to offer equally favorable terms and conditions to the client prospectively for future work performed or retrospectively in the form credits applied towards future pricing. As a result of the merger, some of these provisions included in HiSoft client contracts may require HiSoft to revise downward the prices applicable to such contracts if the pricing terms of certain VanceInfo client contracts are more favorable than the terms included in the HiSoft client contracts, which could adversely affect the business and future profitability of the combined company. Similarly, as a result of the merger, some of these provisions included in VanceInfo client contracts may require VanceInfo to revise downward the prices applicable to such contracts if the pricing terms of

44

certain HiSoft client contracts are more favorable than the terms included in the VanceInfo client contracts, which could adversely affect the business and future profitability of the combined company.

        HiSoft and VanceInfo contracts with certain of their respective clients contain non-competition clauses, under which HiSoft or VanceInfo, as the case may be, are constrained from providing services to certain customers of these existing clients. In addition, HiSoft and VanceInfo contracts with certain of their respective clients provide that, during the term of the contract and for a period of time after the expiration of the contract and under specified circumstances, neither HiSoft nor VanceInfo, as the case may be, may accept any assignments from, or render similar services to, customers, potential customers prompted during proposal provision or bidding process or competitors, of these clients, without the prior written consent of the client. Since HiSoft and VanceInfo currently provide services to some customers and competitors of the other's existing clients, if after the consummation of the transaction HiSoft or VanceInfo is unable to obtain the consent of their respective existing clients, the continued provision of services to such customers or competitors of their respective existing clients may constitute a breach under their respective client contracts or result in the termination of such client contracts, which could adversely affect the business, future profitability and client relationships of the combined company.

        Furthermore, HiSoft and VanceInfo contracts with certain of their respective clients contain change-of-control clauses, which provide that the contracts may be terminated with immediate effect by written notice by the clients without incurring any liability in the event that there is a direct or indirect change of ownership of HiSoft or VanceInfo or there is a material change in the key personnel of HiSoft or VanceInfo. Such change-of-control clauses may be triggered as a result of the merger. If HiSoft or VanceInfo is unable to obtain the consent of their respective clients as to the consummation of the merger, their contracts with these clients may be terminated, which could adversely affect the business, future profitability and client relationships of the combined company.

Uncertainty about the merger and diversion of management could harm HiSoft, VanceInfo or the combined company.

        In response to the announcement of the merger, existing or prospective customers, partners and suppliers may delay or defer their purchasing or other decisions concerning HiSoft or VanceInfo, or they may seek to change their existing business relationship. In addition, as a result of the merger, current and prospective employees could experience uncertainty about their future with HiSoft, VanceInfo or the combined company. These uncertainties may impair each company's ability to retain, recruit or motivate key personnel. Completion of the merger will also require a significant amount of time and attention from management. The diversion of management attention away from ongoing operations could adversely affect ongoing operations and business relationships of the combined company.

HiSoft and VanceInfo will incur transaction and integration costs in connection with the merger which will be borne by the combined company.

        HiSoft and VanceInfo have incurred, and expect to continue to incur, significant costs in connection with the merger. HiSoft will also incur integration costs following the completion of the merger as VanceInfo's operations are integrated with HiSoft's operations. The synergies expected to arise from the merger may not be achieved in the near term or at all, and if achieved, may not be sufficient to offset the costs associated with the merger. Unanticipated costs, or the failure to achieve such expected improvement, may have an adverse impact on the results of operations of the combined company following the completion of the merger.

45

Other Risks Related to HiSoft and VanceInfo

        HiSoft's businesses are and will be subject to the risks described above. In addition, HiSoft is, and will continue to be, subject to the risks described in "Item 3.D.—Key Information—Risk Factors" of the HiSoft 2011 20-F, beginning on page 5, all of which are incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus, and the risk factors below for information concerning the risks relating to HiSoft.

        VanceInfo's businesses are and will be subject to the risks described above. In addition, VanceInfo is, and will continue to be, subject to the risks described in "Item 3.D.—Key Information—Risk Factors" of the VanceInfo 2011 20-F, beginning on page 6, all of which are incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus, and the risk factors below for information concerning the risks relating to VanceInfo.

        In addition, the HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs to be received by VanceInfo shareholders and VanceInfo ADS holders, respectively, will have different rights from the VanceInfo shares and VanceInfo ADSs. For a summary of the material differences between HiSoft shareholder rights and VanceInfo shareholder rights, see "Comparison of Rights of Holders of HiSoft Securities and VanceInfo Securities—Comparison of Rights of HiSoft and VanceInfo Shareholders," beginning on page 141. Similarly, there are certain differences between the rights of VanceInfo ADS holders under the VanceInfo Deposit Agreement and the rights of HiSoft ADS holders under the HiSoft Deposit Agreement. For example, there are differences in the fees that the HiSoft depositary and the VanceInfo depositary charge under various circumstances. For a summary of the material differences between the rights of HiSoft ADS holders and the rights of VanceInfo ADS holders, see "Comparison of Rights of Holders of HiSoft Securities and VanceInfo Securities—Comparison of Rights of holders of HiSoft ADSs and VanceInfo ADSs," beginning on page 177.

The subsidiaries of HiSoft and VanceInfo incorporated in Beijing, Jiangsu, Guangdong and Tianjin may be required to pay value added tax as a result of the recent tax reform in the PRC which could have an adverse impact on the operating results of HiSoft and VanceInfo.

        On November 16, 2011, the Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Taxation jointly issued the Implementation Rules of the Pilot Program of Value Added Tax Reform, or Circular 110, and the Notice on the Pilot Program of Value Added Tax Reform in Transportation and Certain Modern Service Industries in Shanghai, or Circular 111, or the New VAT Rules. The New VAT Rules became effective on January 1, 2012, under which certain transportation and modern services companies in Shanghai will be subject to value added tax, or VAT, in lieu of the otherwise applicable Business Tax, of 5%. According to a circular jointly issued by the Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Taxation on July 31, 2012, or Circular 71, certain transportation and modern services companies incorporated in eight other provinces in the PRC will be subject to the tax reform contemplated under the New VAT Rules. As a result, the subsidiaries of HiSoft and VanceInfo incorporated in Shanghai are required to pay VAT from January 1, 2012; the subsidiaries of HiSoft and VanceInfo incorporated in Beijing are required to pay VAT from September 1, 2012; Wuxi HiSoft Services Ltd., Suzhou VanceInfo Creative Software Technology Limited and Nanjing VanceInfo Creative Software Technology Limited are required to pay VAT from October 1, 2012; the subsidiaries of HiSoft and VanceInfo incorporated in Guangdong are required to pay VAT from November 1, 2012; and VanceInfo Technologies Limited is required to pay VAT from December 1, 2012. Specifically, these subsidiaries will be subject to VAT at a rate of 3% if they qualify as small-scale VAT payers or 6% if they qualify as general VAT payers for the research and development services and IT services they provide depending on their taxable revenue. The tax burdens associated with different VAT payer status are unclear because while general VAT payers are subject to a higher VAT rate, they enjoy the benefit of being able to reduce the total VAT it has paid in connection with daily purchasing activities, which is not available to small-scale VAT payers. In addition, different formulas for calculating taxable VAT will

46

be applied to the VAT payers depending on their status. As these are newly introduced rules, there is significant uncertainty relating to the interpretation and enforcement of these rules by the national and local tax authorities and other relevant authorities. In addition, the PRC government may adopt similar tax reforms in other cities in China, and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected if those tax reforms become unfavorable to HiSoft or VanceInfo.

Adverse changes relating to VanceInfo's major clients could reduce VanceInfo's revenues and harm its business.

        VanceInfo has derived, and believes that in the foreseeable future it will continue to derive, a significant portion of its revenues from a limited number of clients. For example, in 2011, each of Huawei and Microsoft accounted for 10% or more of VanceInfo's net revenues, and in the aggregate accounted for 36.9% of its net revenues. VanceInfo's top five clients accounted for approximately 53.1% and 53.4% of its net revenues in 2011 and the six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. VanceInfo's ability to maintain close relationships with these clients is essential to the growth and profitability of its business.

        A number of factors other than VanceInfo's performance could cause the loss of or reduction in business or revenue from a client and these factors are not predictable. For example, it was recently announced that Huawei has formed a joint venture specializing in the software outsourcing business with one of VanceInfo's competitors and has entered into an agreement with another competitor of VanceInfo to form an IT services joint venture. Huawei may have plans to form similar joint ventures or other alliances with VanceInfo's competitors. Furthermore, another VanceInfo client headquartered in Europe, ranked among VanceInfo's top five clients as measured by revenues in 2011, has recently been downsizing its operations. VanceInfo generally does not have long-term commitments from its clients to purchase its services, and its clients may terminate master service agreements and statements of work on short notice. The above or other adverse changes relating to VanceInfo's major clients could reduce VanceInfo's revenues and harm its business.

Strict enforcement of PRC Company Law on VanceInfo's two PRC subsidiaries may result in additional capital contribution in form of cash into the two PRC subsidiaries.

        Beijing Sunwin Technology Co., Ltd., or Beijing Sunwin and Beijing Viatt Information Technology Co., Ltd., or Beijing Viatt, each a PRC subsidiary of VanceInfo, are incorporated in Zhongguancun Science Park, Haidian District, Beijing, with 86.4% and 80% of their registered capital contributed in form of intellectual properties, respectively. Zhongguancun Science Park was approved by the State Council of the PRC to be developed as a national self-regulatory creative zone, and the Standing Committee of the People's Congress of Beijing, as the legislative body of Beijing, passed the Rules of Zhongguancun National Self-Regulatory Creative and Illustrative Zone in 2000, or Bulletin 25 which was subsequently replaced by Bulletin 12 passed in 2010. Under both rules, shareholders of a company incorporated in Zhongguancun Science Park may decide on the percentage of capital contribution into the company made in form of intellectual properties through contractual agreement. Although these local rules are silent on whether the percentage of capital contribution in form of intellectual properties is allowed to exceed the statutory upper limit under the PRC Company Law, both Beijing Sunwin and Beijing Viatt have been duly registered with, and passed the annual examinations by, the competent local branch of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, or the SAIC. Therefore, VanceInfo in good faith believed that the capital injections into Beijing Sunwin and Beijing Viatt were in compliance with relevant PRC laws and regulations. However, the in-kind capital contribution into these two entities based on the Zhongguancun Science Park Rules exceeded the upper limit allowed under the PRC Company Law and other relevant national regulations effective as of the respective capital contributions. As such, the likelihood cannot be completely ruled out that the SAIC or its competent local counterparts may decide to strictly enforce the aforesaid statutory requirement under the PRC Company Law and thus require VanceInfo to make up the capital contributions to Beijing Sunwin and Beijing Viatt in cash, although the risk remains uncertain and remote.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

        This joint proxy statement/prospectus and the information incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus include certain forward-looking statements. In addition, in the future HiSoft, VanceInfo, and others on their behalf may make statements that constitute forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "will," "believes," "intends," "plans," or "expects," or similar expressions, or by express or implied discussions regarding the merger, the future financial results or business prospects of HiSoft, VanceInfo or any of their respective subsidiaries or the potential growth opportunities or expected benefits from the merger; or by discussions of strategies, plans, expectations or intentions. You should not place undue reliance on these statements.

        Such forward-looking statements reflect the current views of HiSoft and/or VanceInfo regarding future events, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such statements. There can be no assurance that HiSoft, VanceInfo or any of their respective subsidiaries or service lines will achieve any particular financial results, or that the merger will be completed or the expected benefits of the merger will be achieved in a timely manner or at all. In particular, management's expectations could be affected by, among other things: unexpected regulatory actions or delays or government regulation generally; uncertainties regarding future demand for the services and products of HiSoft or VanceInfo; unforeseen adverse consequences of the proposed merger, such as making it more difficult to maintain relationships with key employees; and the impact that the foregoing factors could have on the values attributed to the assets and liabilities of HiSoft, VanceInfo and any of their respective subsidiaries as recorded on their consolidated balance sheets. Some of these factors are discussed in more detail under "Risk Factors" in this joint proxy statement/prospectus, in the HiSoft 2011 20-F or the year ended December 31, 2011, as filed with the SEC on April 20, 2012 and as amended on April 25, 2012 (the "HiSoft 2011 20-F"), including under "Item 3.D. Risk Factors," "Item 4. Information on the Company" and "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects," and in VanceInfo's annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2011, as filed with the SEC on April 26, 2012 and as amended on May 21, 2012 (the "VanceInfo 2011 20-F"), including under "Item 3.C. Risk Factors." Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in this joint proxy statement/prospectus or in the documents incorporated herein by reference as anticipated, believed, estimated or expected.

        HiSoft and VanceInfo caution against placing undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which reflect their current beliefs and are based on information currently available to them as of the date a forward-looking statement is made. Forward-looking statements set forth or incorporated by reference herein speak only as of the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus or the date of the document incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus, as the case may be, and will only be updated in this joint proxy statement/prospectus or the document incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus, as the case may be, to the extent required by applicable federal securities law. Any corrections or revisions and other important assumptions and factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements, including discussions of significant risk factors, may appear in HiSoft's or VanceInfo's public filings with the SEC, which are accessible at www.sec.gov, and which you are advised to consult. For additional information, please see the section entitled "Where You Can Find More Information" and "Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference" beginning on pages 199 and 200, respectively.

THE EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF HISOFT SHAREHOLDERS

Date, Time and Place

        HiSoft will hold the HiSoft EGM at the offices of Fangda Partners at 21/F, China World Tower, No. 1, Jian Guo Men Wai Avenue, Beijing 100004, PRC on November 6, 2012, beginning at 9:00 a.m. (Beijing time).

Matters to be Considered at the HiSoft EGM

        The purposes of the HiSoft EGM are to consider and, if thought fit, to pass the following resolutions:

        1.     as an ordinary resolution to authorize and approve the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, and the HiSoft Share Issuance that constitutes the consideration for the merger pursuant to the merger agreement;

        2.     as a special resolution, to authorize and approve the HiSoft Articles Amendments; and

        3.     as an ordinary resolution, to authorize and approve that in the event there are insufficient proxies received at the time of the HiSoft EGM to authorize and approve the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Share Issuance and the HiSoft Articles Amendments proposed at the HiSoft EGM, the chairman of the HiSoft EGM be instructed to adjourn the HiSoft EGM in order to allow HiSoft to solicit additional proxies.

Recommendation of HiSoft's Board of Directors

        After careful consideration, HiSoft's board of directors has unanimously approved the merger agreement and recommends that you vote (1) "FOR" the resolutions to authorize and approve the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Share Issuance and the HiSoft Articles Amendments and (2) "FOR" any resolution to adjourn the HiSoft EGM, if necessary.

Record Date and Quorum

        A quorum of HiSoft shareholders is necessary to have a valid shareholders' meeting. Pursuant to HiSoft's articles of association, at least two HiSoft shareholders entitled to vote holding not less than an aggregate of one-third in nominal value of the total issued voting shares of HiSoft present in person or by proxy constitutes a quorum for all purposes. Upon written request by HiSoft to the HiSoft depositary, all deposited shares (whether or not voting instructions have been received in respect of such HiSoft shares) underlying HiSoft ADSs will be included in the calculation of the number of HiSoft shares represented at the HiSoft EGM for purposes of determining whether a quorum has been achieved.

        HiSoft expects, as of the HiSoft share record date, there will be approximately 659,376,977 HiSoft shares entitled to be voted at the HiSoft EGM.

Vote Required

        The HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase and the HiSoft Share Issuance must be approved by an affirmative vote by holders of HiSoft shares representing a majority of the votes cast by such shareholders of HiSoft entitled to do so, voting in person or by proxy, at the HiSoft EGM. The HiSoft Articles Amendments must be authorized and approved by an affirmative vote of holders of HiSoft shares representing at least two-thirds of the votes cast by such shareholders of HiSoft entitled to do so, voting in person or by proxy, at the HiSoft EGM. As of September 25, 2012, based on the HiSoft register of members, there were 659,376,977 HiSoft shares (including HiSoft shares held by HiSoft in connection with its equity incentive plans) issued and outstanding and entitled to vote.

49

Voting by Directors, Executive Officers and Certain HiSoft Shareholders

        As of September 25, 2012, HiSoft directors and executive officers and their affiliates beneficially owned an aggregate of approximately 112,116,798 HiSoft shares, constituting approximately 17% of the total outstanding HiSoft shares and approximately 17% of the aggregate voting power of HiSoft shares. We currently expect that the HiSoft directors and executive officers and their affiliates will vote their shares in favor of all HiSoft proposals, but none of them (other than the Mr. Tiak Koon Loh) has entered into any agreement obligating him or her to do so.

        As an inducement for VanceInfo to enter into the merger agreement, certain shareholders of HiSoft, being Mr. Tiak Koon Loh and Granite Global Ventures (Q.P.), L.P., Granite Global Ventures L.P., Granite Global Ventures II L.P., and GGV II Entrepreneurs Fund L.P. (collectively "Granite Global Ventures", and together with Mr. Loh, the "HiSoft Voting Shareholders"), entered into voting agreements with and in favor of VanceInfo on August 10, 2012 (the "VanceInfo Voting Agreements") contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of the merger agreement. As of September 25, 2012, an aggregate of 104,504,749 HiSoft shares (including 28,273,710 HiSoft shares underlying vested and unvested HiSoft options and unvested restricted share awards), constituting approximately 15.9% of the total outstanding HiSoft shares (based on 659,376,977 HiSoft shares (including HiSoft shares held by HiSoft in connection with its equity incentive plans) outstanding as set forth in the HiSoft register of members dated September 25, 2012) and approximately 15.9% of the aggregate voting power of HiSoft shares (based on 659,376,977 HiSoft shares (including HiSoft shares held by HiSoft in connection with its equity incentive plans) outstanding as set forth in the HiSoft register of members dated September 25, 2012), were subject to the VanceInfo Voting Agreements. Under the VanceInfo Voting Agreements, the HiSoft Voting Shareholders have agreed, among other things, to vote all HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs beneficially owned by them in favor of the matters relating to the transaction being submitted to the HiSoft shareholders for approval and against any competing transaction, and, with respect to Mr. Loh, to certain transfer restrictions with respect to HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs beneficially owned by him. Please see "The Voting Agreement—Voting Agreements between VanceInfo and Certain HiSoft Shareholders" for more information.

HiSoft Shareholders and ADS Holders Entitled to Vote; Voting Materials

        Only HiSoft shareholders entered in the register of members of HiSoft at the close of business on October 12, 2012 (Hong Kong time), the HiSoft share record date, will receive the proxy card directly from HiSoft. HiSoft shareholders registered in the register of members of HiSoft as of the HiSoft share record date or their proxy holders are entitled to vote and may participate in the HiSoft EGM any adjournment thereof. HiSoft shareholders wanting to vote by proxy should simply indicate on their proxy card how they want to vote, sign and date the proxy card, and mail the proxy card in the return envelope as soon as possible but in any event so that it is received by HiSoft no later than 9:00 a.m. on November 2, 2012 (Hong Kong time).

        Holders of HiSoft ADSs as of the close of business on September 25, 2012 (New York City time) cannot attend or vote at the HiSoft EGM directly, but may instruct the HiSoft depositary how to vote the shares underlying the ADSs by completing and signing an ADS voting instruction card provided by the HiSoft depositary and returning it in accordance with the instructions printed on it. The HiSoft depositary must receive the ADS voting instruction card no later than noon (New York City time) on November 1, 2012. The HiSoft depositary shall endeavor, in so far as practicable, to vote or cause to be voted the shares represented by HiSoft ADSs in accordance with your voting instructions.

        Holders of HiSoft ADSs may vote at the HiSoft EGM if they cancel their ADSs and certify that they have not given, and will not give, voting instructions as to the ADSs (or alternatively, they will not vote the HiSoft shares) and become a holder of HiSoft shares by the close of business on October 12, 2012 (Hong Kong time). HiSoft ADS holders wanting to cancel their ADSs need to make

50

arrangements to deliver their ADSs to the HiSoft depositary for cancellation prior to the close of business in New York City on October 8, 2012 and complete certain other procedures required by the HiSoft depositary. Persons who hold HiSoft ADSs in a brokerage, bank or nominee account, must contact their broker, bank or nominee to find out what actions they need to take to instruct the broker, bank or nominee to cancel the ADSs on their behalf. Persons holding HiSoft ADSs in a brokerage, bank or nominee account should consult with their broker, bank or nominee to obtain directions on how to provide such broker, bank or nominee with instructions on how to vote their ADSs.

        Each HiSoft share carries one vote. Each HiSoft ADS represents 19 HiSoft shares. As of September 25, 2012, there were 659,376,977 HiSoft shares issued and outstanding (including HiSoft shares represented by ADSs), all of which are entitled to vote on the proposals at the HiSoft EGM, subject to the procedures described above. As of September 25, 2012, there were 28,456,417 HiSoft ADSs outstanding based on the records of the HiSoft depositary; subject to the cancellation procedures described above, none of the holders of these ADSs may vote in person at the HiSoft EGM.

        Persons who have acquired HiSoft shares and whose names are entered in HiSoft's register of members before the close of business on October 12, 2012 (Hong Kong time) will receive the proxy form (including the voting material) before the HiSoft EGM, and persons who are HiSoft ADS holders as of the close of business on September 25, 2012 (New York City time) will receive the ADS voting instruction card from the depositary before the HiSoft EGM. HiSoft shareholders who have acquired HiSoft shares after the close of business on October 12, 2012 may not attend the HiSoft EGM unless they receive a proxy from the person or entity who had sold them such HiSoft shares.

Proxy Holders for Registered HiSoft Shareholders

        HiSoft shareholders registered in the register of members of HiSoft as of the HiSoft share record date who are unable to participate in the HiSoft EGM, may appoint as a representative another HiSoft shareholder, a third party or HiSoft as proxy holder by completing and returning the form of proxy in accordance with the instructions printed thereon. With regard to the items listed on the agenda and without any explicit instructions to the contrary, HiSoft as proxy holder will vote in favor for (1) the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Articles Amendments and the HiSoft Share Issuance according to the recommendation of the HiSoft Board and (2) any resolution to adjourn the HiSoft EGM, if necessary. If new proposals (other than those on the agenda) are put forth before the HiSoft EGM, HiSoft as proxy holder will vote in accordance with the position of the HiSoft Board.

Voting of Proxies and Failure to Vote; Discretionary Proxy of HiSoft Under HiSoft Deposit Agreement

        All HiSoft shares represented by valid proxies will be voted at the HiSoft EGM in the manner specified by the holder. If a HiSoft shareholder returns a properly signed proxy card but does not indicate how the HiSoft shareholder wants to vote, (1) the HiSoft shares represented by that proxy card will be voted "FOR" the resolutions to authorize and approve the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Articles Amendments and the HiSoft Share Issuance, and (2) the HiSoft shares represented by that proxy card will be voted "FOR" the resolution that, in the event that there are insufficient proxies received at the time of the HiSoft EGM to authorize and approve the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Articles Amendments and the HiSoft Share Issuance, the chairman of the HiSoft EGM be instructed to adjourn the HiSoft EGM in order to allow HiSoft to solicit additional proxies, unless the HiSoft shareholder appoints a person other than the chairman of HiSoft EGM as proxy, in which case the HiSoft shares represented by that proxy card will be voted (or not submitted for voting) as the proxy determines. HiSoft shareholders who fail to cast their vote in person or by submitting a properly signed proxy card will not have their votes counted.

51

        Banks, brokers and other nominees who hold HiSoft ADSs in "street name" for their customers do not have discretionary authority to provide the HiSoft depositary with voting instructions on how to vote the HiSoft shares underlying the HiSoft ADSs with respect to the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Articles Amendments and the HiSoft Share Issuance, except that if banks, brokers or other nominees do not timely receive specific voting instructions from the beneficial owner of HiSoft ADSs, they will be deemed to have instructed the HiSoft depositary to give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by HiSoft, or a HiSoft Designee, under the HiSoft depositary agreement, unless HiSoft informs the HiSoft depositary that (a) HiSoft does not wish such discretionary proxy to be given, (b) HiSoft is aware or should reasonably be aware that substantial opposition exists from holders of HiSoft ADSs against the outcome for which the HiSoft Designee would otherwise vote, or (c) the outcome for which the HiSoft Designee would otherwise vote would materially and adversely affect the rights of the holders of HiSoft shares. It is HiSoft's intention that the HiSoft Designee votes all such unvoted HiSoft shares (1) "FOR" the resolutions to authorize and approve the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Articles Amendments and the HiSoft Share Issuance at the HiSoft EGM and (2) "FOR" any resolution to adjourn the HiSoft EGM, if necessary.

Revocability of Proxies

        Registered holders of HiSoft shares may revoke their proxies in one of three ways:

•

first, a registered HiSoft shareholder may revoke a proxy by written notice of revocation given to the chairman of the HiSoft EGM before the HiSoft EGM commences. Any written notice revoking a proxy should be sent to Mr. Ross Warner, the Board Secretary of HiSoft, by telephone at +86-10-5987-5865, mail at Building C-4, No.66 Xixiaokou Road, Haidian District, Beijing, China 100192;

•

third, a registered HiSoft shareholder may attend the HiSoft EGM and vote in person. Attendance, by itself, will not revoke a proxy. It will only be revoked if the shareholder actually votes at the HiSoft EGM.

        Holders of HiSoft ADSs may revoke their voting instructions by notification to the HiSoft depositary in writing at any time prior to noon (New York City time) on November 1, 2012. A holder of HiSoft ADSs can do this in one of two ways:

•

•

second, a holder of HiSoft ADSs can complete, date and submit a new ADS voting instruction card to the HiSoft depositary bearing a later date than the ADS voting instruction card sought to be revoked.

Solicitation of Proxies

        HiSoft is soliciting proxies for the HiSoft extraordinary general meeting from its shareholders and ADS holders. HiSoft will ask banks, brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to forward HiSoft's proxy solicitation materials to the beneficial owners of HiSoft shares or HiSoft ADSs held of record by such nominee holders. HiSoft may reimburse these nominee holders for their customary clerical and mailing expenses incurred in forwarding the proxy solicitation materials to the beneficial owners and in obtaining voting instructions from those owners. In addition, proxies may be solicited by mail, in person, by telephone, by Internet or by facsimile by certain of HiSoft's officers, directors and employees. These persons will receive no additional compensation for solicitation of proxies but may be reimbursed for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. HiSoft will pay all expenses of filing, printing and mailing this joint proxy statement/prospectus to HiSoft shareholder and HiSoft ADS holders.

        To help assure the presence in person or by proxy of the largest number of shareholders and ADS holders possible, we have engaged Ipreo, a proxy solicitation firm, to solicit proxies on HiSoft's behalf. HiSoft and VanceInfo have agreed to pay Ipreo a proxy solicitation fee not to exceed US$10,000. HiSoft and VanceInfo will also reimburse Ipreo for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses.

Adjournments

        The chairman of the HiSoft EGM, which will be the chairman of the HiSoft Board, may adjourn the meeting from time to time and from place to place, whether or not a quorum exists, without further notice other than by an announcement made at the HiSoft EGM (unless the adjournment is for more than 14 days). If a quorum is not present at the HiSoft EGM, the meeting will stand adjourned to the same day in the next week at the same time and place or such time and place as the HiSoft Board may determined. If at such adjourned meeting a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for holding the meeting, the meeting will be dissolved.

Date, Time and Place

        VanceInfo will hold the VanceInfo EGM at 3/F, Building 8, Zhongguancun Software Park, Haidian District Beijing 100193, People's Republic of China on November 6, 2012, beginning at 9:00 a.m. Beijing time).

Matters to be Considered at the VanceInfo EGM

        The purposes of the VanceInfo EGM are to consider and, if thought fit, to pass the following resolutions:

        1.     as a special resolution to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger;

        2.     an ordinary resolution, to authorize and approve that, in the event there are insufficient proxies received at the time of the VanceInfo EGM to authorize and approve the resolution to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, proposed at the VanceInfo EGM, the chairman of the VanceInfo EGM be instructed to adjourn the VanceInfo EGM in order to allow VanceInfo to solicit additional proxies.

Recommendation of VanceInfo's Board of Directors

        After careful consideration, VanceInfo's board of directors has unanimously approved the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, and recommends that you vote (1) "FOR" the resolution to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, and (2) "FOR" any resolution to adjourn the VanceInfo EGM, if necessary.

Record Date and Quorum

        A quorum of VanceInfo shareholders is necessary to have a valid shareholders' meeting. Pursuant to VanceInfo's memorandum and articles of association, at least two VanceInfo shareholders entitled to vote holding not less than an aggregate of one-third in nominal value of the total issued voting shares of VanceInfo present in person or by proxy constitutes a quorum for all purposes. Upon written request by VanceInfo to the VanceInfo depositary, all deposited shares (whether or not voting instructions have been received in respect of such VanceInfo shares) underlying VanceInfo ADSs will be included in the calculation of the number of VanceInfo shares represented at the VanceInfo EGM for purposes of determining whether a quorum has been achieved.

        VanceInfo expects, as of the VanceInfo share record date, there will be approximately 44,833,928 VanceInfo shares entitled to be voted at the VanceInfo EGM.

Vote Required

        The resolution to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, must be approved by an affirmative vote by holders of VanceInfo shares representing at least two-thirds of the votes cast by such shareholders of VanceInfo entitled to do so, voting in person or by proxy, at the VanceInfo EGM. The resolution approve an adjournment of the VanceInfo EGM, if necessary, must be approved by an affirmative vote by holders of VanceInfo shares representing a majority of the votes cast. As of September 25, 2012, based on the VanceInfo register of members, there were 44,833,928 VanceInfo shares (including VanceInfo shares held by VanceInfo in connection with its equity incentive plans) issued and outstanding and entitled to vote.

54

Voting by Directors, Executive Officers and Certain VanceInfo Shareholders

        As of September 25, 2012, VanceInfo directors and executive officers and their affiliates beneficially owned an aggregate of 6,102,627 VanceInfo shares, constituting approximately 13.6% of the total outstanding VanceInfo shares and approximately 13.6% of the aggregate voting power of VanceInfo shares. We currently expect that the VanceInfo directors and executive officers and their affiliates will vote their shares in favor of all VanceInfo proposals, but none of them (other than Mr. Chris Shuning Chen) has entered into any agreement obligating him or her to do so.

        As an inducement for HiSoft to enter into the merger agreement, Mr. Chris Shuning Chen, Button Software Ltd. and Tairon Investments Limited (the "VanceInfo Voting Shareholders"), who are shareholders of VanceInfo, entered into a voting agreement with and in favor of HiSoft on August 10, 2012 (the "HiSoft Voting Agreement") contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of the merger agreement. As of September 25, 2012, an aggregate of 3,980,666 VanceInfo shares (including 212,746 VanceInfo shares underlying vested and unvested VanceInfo options and VanceInfo restricted share units and 1,250,000 VanceInfo ADSs subject to certain variable prepaid forward arrangements), constituting approximately 8.9% of the total outstanding shares of VanceInfo (based on 44,833,928 VanceInfo shares (including VanceInfo shares held by VanceInfo in connection with its equity incentive plans) outstanding as set forth in the VanceInfo register of members dated September 25, 2012), and 8.9% of the voting power of VanceInfo (based on 44,833,928 VanceInfo shares (including VanceInfo shares held by VanceInfo in connection with its equity incentive plans) outstanding as set forth in the VanceInfo register of members dated September 25, 2012), are subject to the HiSoft Voting Agreements. Any VanceInfo shares, VanceInfo ADSs or other voting share capital of VanceInfo with respect to which any VanceInfo Voting Shareholder subsequently acquires beneficial ownership, including any VanceInfo shares issued upon the exercise of any VanceInfo share option or VanceInfo restricted share unit or the conversion, exercise or exchange of any other securities into or for any VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs will automatically become subject to the HiSoft Voting Agreements. Under the VanceInfo Voting Agreements, the VanceInfo Voting Shareholders have agreed, among other things, to vote all VanceInfo shares and VanceInfo ADSs beneficially owned by them in favor of the matters relating to the transaction being submitted to the VanceInfo shareholders for approval and against any competing transaction.

THE MERGER

Background of the Merger

        The following is a summary of the meetings, negotiations, material contacts and discussions between VanceInfo and HiSoft that preceded the execution of the merger agreement. China Standard Time is used for all dates and times given.

        The board of directors of each of VanceInfo and HiSoft, as part of its ongoing evaluation of the business strategy of VanceInfo and HiSoft, respectively, regularly reviews and discusses with the senior management team of VanceInfo and HiSoft, respectively, the company's performance, prospects and overall strategic direction, and considers ways to strengthen the company's business and enhance long-term shareholder value. These reviews and discussions by the board of directors of each of VanceInfo and HiSoft have focused on, among other things, the business environment facing IT outsourcing services companies in China and elsewhere, the outsourcing industry generally and the competitive position of VanceInfo and HiSoft, respectively. In recent years, the board of directors of each company has also evaluated and discussed potential opportunities for business combinations, acquisitions and other strategic alternatives involving each other and various other parties. In addition, VanceInfo periodically received financial advice from an international investment bank with respect to potential acquisitions.

        In the context of these discussions, representatives of VanceInfo and HiSoft, from time to time in 2011 and the first half of 2012, engaged in informal discussions regarding the possibility of mutual business opportunities, including a potential business combination transaction involving the two companies. All discussions during this period were preliminary in nature, did not lead to any specific proposal or agreements and were ultimately discontinued.

        In early July 2012, Mr. Tiak Koon Loh, Chief Executive Officer and a director of HiSoft, approached Mr. Chris Shuning Chen, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of VanceInfo, to request a meeting. Mr. Loh and Mr. Chen met on July 12, 2012 and discussed, among other things, a potential combination of the two companies, the strategic rationale for a potential combination, the potential benefits of a merger to the respective shareholders of HiSoft and VanceInfo, the potential governance structure of the combined company and the division of management responsibilities between the chief executive officers of each company. The two indicated their willingness to further discuss the possibility of a business combination and arranged a follow-up meeting between Mr. Loh and Mr. Sidney Xuande Huang, Co-President and Chief Financial Officer of VanceInfo, on the next day to preliminarily discuss the potential terms and timing of a possible transaction. Following the meeting between Mr. Loh and Mr. Huang, they agreed to further discuss potential key transaction terms of a possible business combination.

        On July 16, 2012, Mr. Huang discussed the potential transaction and related financial considerations with a representative of Citigroup Global Markets Inc. ("Citi"). VanceInfo subsequently engaged Citi as its financial advisor to evaluate, and to render to the VanceInfo Board an opinion regarding the fairness of the exchange ratios from a financial point of view in the proposed merger to VanceInfo. Citi previously acted as an underwriter in VanceInfo's initial public offering and its follow-on offerings.

        On July 18, 2012, the HiSoft Board held a telephonic meeting at which Mr. Loh informed the HiSoft Board that he and Ms. Jenny Lee, a director of HiSoft (who was also involved in the informal discussions between the parties in 2011 and the first half of 2012), had initiated preliminary discussions with the senior management of VanceInfo regarding a possible business combination of HiSoft and VanceInfo. Mr. Loh outlined for the HiSoft Board, among other matters, the rationale for such discussions and a potential time line and next steps for proceeding with such a transaction. The HiSoft Board discussed various aspects of the potential transaction, including the strategic rationale, likely synergies and competitive market implications of the potential transaction, the potential impact of such

59

a transaction on the trading price of HiSoft ADSs, the anticipated management and composition of the board of the combined company, corporate culture fit between the two companies and certain legal requirements with respect to such a transaction. Following these discussions, the HiSoft Board authorized Mr. Loh and Ms. Lee to enter negotiations on behalf of HiSoft with respect to the potential terms of a business combination transaction with VanceInfo.

        On July 21, 2012, Mr. Huang discussed the potential transaction and related legal considerations with Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP ("Orrick"), VanceInfo's outside legal counsel. VanceInfo subsequently determined that Orrick would continue its role as VanceInfo's U.S. legal advisor in connection with a potential business combination transaction.

        On July 22, 2012, Mr. Loh, Mr. Chen, Mr. Huang and Ms. Lee met to further discuss the possible terms of a potential combination of HiSoft and VanceInfo. At this meeting, Mr. Chen, Mr. Loh, Mr. Huang and Ms. Lee also discussed their views regarding the potential strategic and financial benefits of a merger between HiSoft and VanceInfo, based solely on publicly available information. They mutually agreed that a combined company would be strategically compelling and beneficial from a financial point of view to the shareholders of both companies, including for the reasons discussed below under "The Merger—Reasons for the Merger". The parties agreed that a business combination between the two companies was a mutually desirable prospect and agreed in principle to structure the proposed transaction as stock-for-stock transaction on a "merger of equals" basis. Mr. Chen, Mr. Loh, Mr. Huang and Ms. Lee reached a preliminary agreement on several key terms of the proposed transaction, including the 50:50 equity ratio, that were largely consistent with the key terms of the merger which were ultimately approved by the respective boards of directors of HiSoft and VanceInfo. These individuals further discussed VanceInfo's desire to structure the transaction in a manner which would achieve a 1-for-1 ADS exchange ratio, which would reflect the 50:50 "merger of equals" nature of the proposed transaction.

        In addition, on July 22, 2012, Ms. Christine Lu-Wong, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of HiSoft, informed representatives of Simpson Thacher & Bartlett ("Simpson Thacher"), HiSoft's outside legal counsel, regarding the possibility of a merger involving HiSoft and VanceInfo.

        On July 22 and July 23, 2012, a representative of HiSoft held several discussions with representatives of an international investment bank, which we refer to as "Investment Bank A", to discuss the possibility of the investment bank acting as HiSoft's financial advisor in connection with proposed potential merger with VanceInfo.

Members of VanceInfo's senior management summarized the discussions between representatives of VanceInfo and HiSoft and outlined the possible terms of the potential combination for the Board's consideration which were discussed on a preliminary basis at the meetings. In addition, the directors discussed, among other things, other potential alternatives for VanceInfo, including the potential buyers and merger candidates discussed in previous VanceInfo Board meetings, the strategic rationale and competitive market implications of the potential merger, a potential time line and next steps for proceeding with such a transaction, and the possible role which the VanceInfo management team might play in the post-merger company. The VanceInfo Board also discussed and ratified the appointment of Citi as the financial advisor of VanceInfo as Citi has been VanceInfo's primary financial advisor since its IPO and was familiar with VanceInfo's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Following a full discussion, the VanceInfo Board authorized the management to further negotiate the proposed merger with HiSoft.

        On July 23, 2012, the HiSoft Board held a telephonic meeting at which Mr. Loh, with input from Ms. Lee, provided an update on preliminary discussions regarding the potential transaction with representatives of VanceInfo since the HiSoft Board meeting on July 18, 2012. Mr. Loh, Ms. Lee and

        Following this meeting, the parties discussed entering into a mutual confidentiality agreement, including "standstill" provisions, to permit HiSoft and VanceInfo to exchange confidential information to facilitate their determination of whether to proceed with the proposed merger. The parties, with the assistance of outside legal counsel, negotiated and executed a mutual confidentiality agreement on July 26, 2012. Over the next several days, representatives of HiSoft, VanceInfo, Investment Bank A, Citi, Simpson Thacher and Orrick discussed a protocol for conducting mutual due diligence and the due diligence timeline. From July 27, 2012 through the signing date of the merger agreement, management of each company and their respective legal counsel and other advisors conducted documentary due diligence and participated in discussions with members of management and advisors of the other company to address due diligence questions and requests.

        In addition, on July 27, 2012, Mr. Loh and a representative of Simpson Thacher discussed certain key governance terms for the combined company and related matters which had been discussed on a preliminary basis by Mr. Loh and Mr. Chen. These governance terms and related matters were ultimately reflected in resolutions of the Transition Management Committee approved and adopted immediately following the execution of the definitive merger agreement. Later that day, Simpson Thacher provided to HiSoft a draft merger agreement and summary of key terms and issues for consideration by the HiSoft Board, and provided to Orrick a preliminary request list of legal due diligence documents to be provided by VanceInfo. On the same day, Orrick requested Simpson Thacher to provide legal due diligence documents with respect to HiSoft in accordance with the same list.

        On July 28, 2012, HiSoft contacted representatives of Lazard Asia (Hong Kong) Limited ("Lazard") regarding the possibility of Lazard acting as financial advisor to HiSoft in connection with the proposed merger. Based on these discussions, HiSoft determined not to retain Investment Bank A and, instead, to engage Lazard to act as its sole financial advisor to assist in HiSoft's evaluation of the proposed merger and to render to the HiSoft Board an opinion regarding the fairness from a financial point of view of the exchange ratios in the proposed merger to HiSoft.

        From July 28, 2012 through the signing date of the merger agreement, Lazard and Citi conducted financial and business due diligence on HiSoft and VanceInfo, including participating in due diligence

Reasons for the Merger

        Both HiSoft and VanceInfo believe that there are substantial potential strategic and financial benefits of the proposed merger. This section summarizes the principal potential strategies and financial benefits that the parties expect to realize in the merger. For a discussion of various factors that could prohibit or limit the parties from realizing some or all of these benefits, see "Risk Factors" beginning on page 39.

        Each of HiSoft and VanceInfo believes that the merger will enhance shareholder value through, among other things, enabling the combined company to capitalize on the following strategic advantages and opportunities:

•

the fact that the combined company will be the largest China-based offshore IT services provider by revenue and employee headcount based on an independent third party's 2012 industry market research reports and publicly filed 2011 company annual reports, respectively, with an enlarged and diversified asset portfolio, an extended business pipeline and a strong balance sheet and cash flow profile;

•

the ability of the combined company to deliver a broader scope of services and cross-sell various services to its customers around the world, which will include consulting, business intelligence, enterprise solutions, IP-driven products and solutions, research and development services, infrastructure management services, application management services and business process outsourcing;

•

an expanded geographic focus with operations of the combined company in Greater China, other countries in the Asia-Pacific region, Europe and the United States, which the parties anticipate will provide opportunities for the combined company in high growth markets across multiple industry sectors as well as a base of sophisticated existing clients in more established markets;

•

a complementary and diverse customer base which will include more than 70 significant clients comprised largely of Fortune 500 companies and large China-based enterprises;

•

the fact that HiSoft and VanceInfo have limited overlaps and complementary strengths in the technology, banking, financial services and insurance industries and growing businesses in the manufacturing, retail, distribution, travel and transportation industries;

•

the opportunity of the combined company to achieve potential cost synergies, which may include elimination of overlapping back office and administrative functions, potential savings on business expansion costs, opportunities for utilizing tax subsidies and net operating losses at various subsidiaries, integration of complementary research and development strengths across different industries, and the elimination of overlapping facilities;

•

the ability of the combined company to utilized an expanded pool of consultants, engineers and sales force around the world with a commitment to superior customer service and a highly experienced management team from both companies with extensive industry knowledge and experience;

•

the creation of a stronger brand, which the parties anticipate will allow the combined company to attract and retain the best people and generate additional business opportunities with new and existing customers.

        The actual synergistic benefits from the merger and costs of integration could be different from the foregoing estimates and these differences could be material. Accordingly, there can be no assurance

68

that any of the potential benefits described above or included in the factors considered by the HiSoft Board described under "The Merger—Recommendation of the HiSoft Board" beginning on page 69 or by the VanceInfo Board described under "The Merger—Recommendation of the VanceInfo Board" beginning on page 71 will be realized. See "Risk Factors" and "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" on page 39 and page 48, respectively.

Recommendation of the HiSoft Board

        On August 10, 2012, the HiSoft Board unanimously (1) approved the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the merger and the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, (2) directed that the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Share Issuance and the HiSoft Articles Amendments be submitted to HiSoft shareholders for authorization and approval, and (3) recommended that HiSoft shareholders authorize and approve the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Share Issuance and the HiSoft Articles Amendments.

Accordingly, the HiSoft Board recommends that HiSoft shareholders vote "FOR" the resolutions to authorize and approve the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Articles Amendments and the HiSoft Share Issuance.

        In addition to the strategic benefits of the merger described in "The Merger—Background of the Merger" and "The Merger—Reasons for the Merger", in reaching its determination to approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger, the merger and the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, and recommend that the HiSoft shareholders authorize and approve the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Share Issuance and the HiSoft Articles Amendments, the HiSoft Board also considered the following factors:

•

its knowledge of HiSoft's business, operations, financial condition, earnings and prospects and its knowledge of VanceInfo's business, operations, financial condition, earnings and prospects, taking into account VanceInfo's publicly-filed information, the results of HiSoft's due diligence review of VanceInfo and HiSoft's familiarity with VanceInfo generally in light of their knowledge regarding key competitors in the IT outsourcing services industry;

•

the current and prospective competitive climate in the IT outsourcing services industry in which HiSoft and VanceInfo operate, including macroeconomic challenges globally, potential wage inflation in China and the overall need for economies of scale and a strong brand to compete for customers around the world;

•

the financial presentation and opinion, dated August 10, 2012, of Lazard Asia (Hong Kong Limited) to the HiSoft Board as to the fairness, from a financial point of view and as of the date of the opinion, to HiSoft of the share exchange ratio and ADS exchange ratio, as more fully described below under the heading "The Merger—Opinion of Financial Advisor to HiSoft";

•

the exchange ratios of one HiSoft share for each VanceInfo share (giving effect to the HiSoft Share Consolidation) and the one HiSoft ADS for each VanceInfo ADS (giving effect to the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment), and the fact that such exchange ratios are fixed and will not fluctuate based upon changes in HiSoft's share price between signing and closing;

•

the expectation that HiSoft shareholders, immediately after completion of the merger, would hold approximately 50% of the shares of the combined company based on the estimated shares of HiSoft and VanceInfo outstanding as of the date of the merger agreement;

69

•

the fact that HiSoft's Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Tiak Koon Loh, will be the Chief Executive Officer of the combined company;

•

the fact that the merger agreement provides that the HiSoft Board after the merger will initially consist of eight directors, and HiSoft and VanceInfo will each designate four directors, and that the chairman of the HiSoft Board would not have an additional or casting vote after the merger;

•

the agreement of Mr. Chen and certain of his affiliates to enter into a voting agreement with and in favor of HiSoft pursuant to which they agreed, among other things, to vote all VanceInfo shares and VanceInfo ADSs beneficially owned by them in favor of the matters relating to the transaction being submitted to the VanceInfo shareholders for approval and against any competing transaction, and to certain transfer restrictions with respect to VanceInfo shares and VanceInfo ADSs beneficially owned by them;

•

the HiSoft Board's belief that the terms of the merger agreement and other documents to be executed in connection with the consummation of the merger were reasonable, including, among other things:

•

the limited conditions to the parties' obligations to complete the merger and the probability that such conditions would be satisfied;

•

the fact that the termination date under the merger agreement allows for time that is expected to be sufficient to complete the merger;

•

the ability of HiSoft to obtain a termination fee of US$30 million, US$15 million or US$4 million from VanceInfo if the merger is not consummated for certain reasons; and

•

the ability of the HiSoft Board to change its recommendation that the HiSoft shareholders authorize and approve the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Share Issuance and the HiSoft Articles Amendments in the event that the failure to make such a change would constitute a breach of the fiduciary duties of the HiSoft directors under applicable law;

•

the likelihood that the merger would be completed based on, among other things:

•

the likelihood and anticipated timing of completing the merger in light of the scope of the conditions to completion, including the absence of required regulatory approvals; and

•

HiSoft's ability to seek specific performance to prevent breaches of the merger agreement and to enforce specifically the terms of the merger agreement; and

•

the strong commitment of both parties to complete the merger pursuant to their respective obligations under the terms of the merger agreement;

The HiSoft Board also considered the following potentially negative factors associated with the merger:

•

the risks and contingencies related to the announcement and pendency of the merger, including the impact of the merger on HiSoft's and VanceInfo's respective customers, employees and relationships with other third parties;

•

the risk of diverting HiSoft management focus, employee attention and resources from other strategic opportunities and from operational matters while working to complete the merger;

•

the challenges of combining the businesses, policies, processes, systems, operations and workforces of HiSoft and VanceInfo and realizing the anticipated cost savings and operating

70

synergies, and the risk that potential benefits and synergies sought in the merger may not be realized to the extent expected or not at all, or may not be realized within the expected time period;

•

the risk that the parties may incur significant costs and unexpected delays in consummating the merger;

•

the fact that there can be no assurance that all conditions to the parties' obligations to complete the merger (including the condition that HiSoft's shareholders approve the HiSoft Share Issuance) will be satisfied and, as a result, the merger may not be consummated, and the possible effects on HiSoft should the parties fail to complete the merger;

•

the additional steps and expense necessary for HiSoft and its shareholders and ADS holders to effect the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment in order to achieve the 1-for-1 exchange ratios in the merger, and the risk that the market may not fully understand the effects of the HiSoft Share Consolidation and the HiSoft ADS Adjustment (in conjunction with the 1-for-1 exchange ratios) on the HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs;

•

the fact that, under the terms of the merger agreement, HiSoft must pay to VanceInfo a termination fee of US$30 million, US$15 million or US$4 million if the merger agreement is terminated under certain circumstances;

•

the fact that, pursuant to the merger agreement, HiSoft must generally conduct its business in the ordinary course and is subject to a variety of other restrictions on the conduct of its business prior to the closing of the merger or termination of the merger agreement, which may delay or prevent it from pursuing business opportunities that may arise or preclude actions that would be advisable if HiSoft were to not enter into the merger agreement; and

•

the risks of the type and nature described under "Risk Factors" on page 39.

        As described above under "The Merger—Background of the Merger," the HiSoft Board, in evaluating the merger and the merger agreement, consulted with HiSoft's management and its legal and financial advisors and, in reaching its decision at its meeting on August 10, 2012 to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the merger and to recommend that HiSoft shareholders authorize and approve the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Share Issuance and the HiSoft Articles Amendments, considered a variety of factors weighing positively and negatively in respect of the merger. The discussion of the factors considered by the HiSoft Board in this sub-section is not intended to be exhaustive and only includes the material factors considered by the HiSoft Board. In view of the large number of factors considered by the HiSoft Board in connection with the evaluation of the merger agreement and the merger and the complexity of these matters, the HiSoft Board did not consider it practicable to, nor did it attempt to, quantify, rank or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors considered in reaching its determination, nor did the HiSoft Board evaluate whether these factors were of equal importance. In addition, each director may have given different weight to the various factors and may have viewed some factors more positively or negatively than others. This explanation of the HiSoft Board's reasons for the merger and all other information presented in this sub-section is forward-looking in nature and, therefore, should be read in light of the factors discussed under "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" on page 48.

        During its consideration of the merger with VanceInfo, the HiSoft Board was also aware that certain members of the HiSoft Board and the Chief Executive Officer of HiSoft have agreements and arrangements which may result in their having interests in the merger different from, or in addition to,

71

those of HiSoft shareholders generally, as described in "The Merger—Interests of VanceInfo's and HiSoft's Directors and Executive Officers in the Merger" beginning on page 88.

Recommendation of the VanceInfo Board

        At a special meeting of the VanceInfo Board on August 10, 2012, the VanceInfo Board unanimously determined that the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger are in the best interests of VanceInfo and its shareholders, and authorized and approved the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger. At the meeting, the VanceInfo Board further directed that the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger be submitted to VanceInfo shareholders at a shareholder meeting for authorization and approval, and recommended that VanceInfo shareholders authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, by way of special resolution.

Accordingly, the VanceInfo Board recommends that VanceInfo shareholders vote "FOR" the resolution to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the merger.

        The VanceInfo Board, in evaluating the merger and the merger agreement, consulted with VanceInfo management and its legal and financial advisors and, in reaching its decision at its meeting on August 10, 2012 to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger and, including the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, considered a variety of factors weighing positively and negatively in respect of the merger. The following discussion of the factors considered by the VanceInfo Board is not intended to be exhaustive and only includes the material factors considered by the VanceInfo Board. In view of the large number of factors considered by the VanceInfo Board in connection with the evaluation of the merger agreement and the merger and the complexity of these matters, the VanceInfo Board did not consider it practicable to, nor did it attempt to, quantify, rank or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors considered in reaching its determination, nor did the VanceInfo Board evaluate whether these factors were of equal importance. In addition, each director may have given different weight to the various factors and may have viewed some factors more positively or negatively than others. This explanation of the VanceInfo Board's reasons for the merger and all other information presented below is forward-looking in nature and, therefore, should be read in light of the factors discussed under "Forward-Looking Statements."

        In addition to the strategic benefits of the merger described above in "The Merger—Background of the Merger" and "The Merger—Reasons for the Merger", in reaching its determination to authorize and approve the merger agreement, the plan of merger and, including the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, the VanceInfo Board also considered the following factors:

•

the VanceInfo Board's knowledge of VanceInfo's business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects and competitive position and its belief that the merger is more favorable to VanceInfo shareholders than other alternatives reasonably available to VanceInfo and its shareholders, including the alternative of remaining a publicly-traded company;

•

its view, evaluated with the assistance of Citi, that the merger is reasonably likely to be more favorable to the VanceInfo shareholders than continued operation of VanceInfo as a standalone enterprise, given the potential risks, rewards and uncertainties associated with remaining a standalone enterprise, including the VanceInfo Board's recognition of the challenges in its efforts to increase shareholder value as a standalone company, including competition from companies with substantially greater resources than VanceInfo currently has;

72

•

estimated forecasts of VanceInfo's future financial performance prepared by VanceInfo's management, together with management's view of VanceInfo's financial condition, results of operations, business, prospects and competitive position;

•

the financial information and analyses presented by Citi to the VanceInfo Board, and its opinion dated August 10, 2012 to the VanceInfo Board to the effect that, as of August 10, 2012, based upon and subject to the assumptions, qualifications and limitations set forth in the opinion, the share exchange ratio and the ADS exchange ratio pursuant to the merger agreement was fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of VanceInfo shares and holders of VanceInfo ADSs, respectively. A copy of the written opinion that was delivered to the VanceInfo Board is included as Appendix D to this joint proxy statement/prospectus and is described under "The Merger—Opinion of Financial Advisor to VanceInfo," beginning on page 81;

•

the exchange ratios of one HiSoft share for each VanceInfo share (giving effect to the HiSoft Share Consolidation) and the one HiSoft ADS for each VanceInfo ADS (giving effect to the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment), and the fact that such exchange ratios are fixed and will not fluctuate based upon changes in HiSoft's share price between signing and closing;

•

the recommendation of VanceInfo's management to proceed with the merger;

•

the fact that resolutions approving the Merger were unanimously approved by the VanceInfo Board, which is comprised of all independent directors (other than Mr. Chen) and who are not affiliated with HiSoft, Merger Sub or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of HiSoft and are not employees of HiSoft or any of its subsidiaries;

•

the expectation that VanceInfo shareholders, immediately after completion of the merger, would hold approximately 50% of the shares of the combined company based on the estimated shares of VanceInfo and HiSoft outstanding as of the date of the merger agreement and that VanceInfo shareholders therefore will participate in future earnings or growth, if any, and benefit from increases in the value of HiSoft shares following the merger, if any;

•

the information and advice previously provided to and reviewed by the VanceInfo Board;

•

prior deliberations of the VanceInfo Board concerning the Merger and likelihood of alternative strategic transactions and business strategies involving VanceInfo;

•

the fact that the merger agreement provides that the HiSoft Board after the merger will initially consist of eight directors, and HiSoft and VanceInfo will each designate four directors, and that the chairman of the HiSoft Board would not have an additional or casting vote after the merger;

•

the agreement of Mr. Loh, Granite Global Ventures (Q.P.) L.P., Granite Global Ventures L.P., Granite Global Ventures II L.P., and GGV II Entrepreneurs Fund L.P. to enter into voting agreements with and in favor of VanceInfo pursuant to which they agreed, among other things, to vote all HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs beneficially owned by them in favor of the matters relating to the transaction being submitted to the HiSoft shareholders for approval and against any competing transaction, and to certain transfer restrictions with respect to the HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs beneficially owned by Mr. Loh;

•

the financial and other terms of the merger, the merger agreement and related documents;

•

the likelihood and anticipated timing of completing the merger in light of the scope of the conditions to completion, including the absence of significant required regulatory approvals; and

73

•

the fact that, under the terms of the merger agreement, VanceInfo must pay to HiSoft a termination fee of US$30 million, US$15 million or US$4 million if the merger agreement is terminated under certain circumstances.

        The VanceInfo Board also considered the following potentially negative factors associated with the merger:

•

the restrictions on the conduct of VanceInfo's business prior to the completion of the merger, which may delay or prevent VanceInfo from undertaking business opportunities that may arise or any other action it would otherwise take with respect to the operations of VanceInfo pending completion of the merger;

•

the possibility that the merger might not be consummated and the negative impact of a public announcement of the merger on VanceInfo's sales and operating results and VanceInfo's ability to attract and retain key management, marketing and technical personnel; and

•

the risks and costs to VanceInfo if the merger does not close, including the diversion of management and employee attention, potential employee attrition and the potential disruptive effect on business and customer relationships.

Opinion of Financial Advisor to HiSoft

        HiSoft retained Lazard to act as its financial advisor and to render an opinion to the HiSoft Board as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the share exchange ratio and ADS exchange ratio. On August 10, 2012, Lazard rendered its oral opinion to the HiSoft Board, subsequently confirmed in writing, that, as of such date, and based upon and subject to the assumptions, procedures, factors, qualifications and limitations set forth in Lazard's written opinion, the share exchange ratio and ADS exchange ratio were fair, from a financial point of view, to HiSoft.

The full text of Lazard's written opinion, dated August 10, 2012, which sets forth the assumptions made, procedures followed, factors considered, and qualifications and limitations on the review undertaken by Lazard in connection with its opinion is attached to this prospectus as Annex C and is incorporated into this prospectus by reference. The description of Lazard's opinion set forth in this prospectus is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of Lazard's written opinion attached as Annex C. We encourage you to read Lazard's opinion and this section carefully and in their entirety.

Lazard's opinion was directed to the HiSoft Board (in its capacity as such) in connection with its evaluation of the merger and only addressed the fairness, from a financial point of view, to HiSoft of the share exchange ratio and ADS exchange ratio of the date of Lazard's opinion. Lazard's opinion was not intended to and does not constitute a recommendation to any shareholder as to how such shareholder should vote or act with respect to the merger or any matter relating thereto.

        Lazard's opinion was necessarily based on economic, monetary, market and other conditions as in effect on, and the information made available to Lazard as of, the date of Lazard's opinion. Lazard assumed no responsibility for updating or revising its opinion based on circumstances or events occurring after the date of Lazard's opinion. Lazard did not express any opinion as to the prices at which the HiSoft ADSs or the VanceInfo ADSs may trade at any time subsequent to the announcement of the merger. In connection with its engagement, Lazard was not authorized to, and did not, solicit indications of interest from third parties regarding a potential transaction with HiSoft, nor was it requested to consider, and its opinion did not address the relative merits of the merger as compared to any other transaction or business strategy in which HiSoft might engage or the merits of the underlying decision by HiSoft to engage in the merger.

74

        The following is a summary of Lazard's opinion. We encourage you to read Lazard's written opinion carefully in its entirety:

        In connection with its opinion, Lazard:

•

reviewed the financial terms and conditions of the merger agreement;

•

reviewed certain publicly available historical business and financial information relating to HiSoft and VanceInfo;

•

reviewed various financial forecasts and other data provided to Lazard by HiSoft relating to the business of HiSoft and various financial forecasts and other data provided to Lazard by VanceInfo relating to the business of VanceInfo;

•

held discussions with members of the senior managements of HiSoft and VanceInfo with respect to the businesses and prospects of HiSoft and VanceInfo, respectively, and reviewed the projected synergies and other benefits, including the amount and timing thereof, anticipated by the managements of HiSoft and VanceInfo to be realized from the merger;

•

reviewed public information with respect to certain other companies in lines of business Lazard believed to be generally relevant in evaluating the businesses of HiSoft and VanceInfo, respectively;

•

reviewed the financial terms of certain business combinations involving companies in lines of business Lazard believed to be generally relevant in evaluating the businesses of HiSoft and VanceInfo, respectively;

•

reviewed historical stock prices and trading volumes of HiSoft ADSs and VanceInfo ADSs;

•

reviewed the potential pro forma financial impact of the merger on HiSoft based on the financial forecasts referred to above relating to HiSoft and VanceInfo; and

•

conducted such other financial studies, analyses and investigations as Lazard deemed appropriate.

        Lazard assumed and relied upon the accuracy and completeness of the foregoing information, without independent verification of such information. Lazard did not conduct any independent valuation or appraisal of any of the assets or liabilities (contingent or otherwise) of HiSoft or VanceInfo or concerning the solvency or fair value of HiSoft or VanceInfo, and Lazard was not furnished with any such valuation or appraisal. With respect to the financial forecasts utilized in Lazard's analyses, including those related to projected synergies and other benefits anticipated by the managements of HiSoft and VanceInfo to be realized from the merger, Lazard assumed, with the consent of HiSoft, that they have been reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments as to the future financial performance of HiSoft and VanceInfo, respectively, and such synergies and other benefits. In addition, Lazard assumed, with the consent of HiSoft, that such financial forecasts and projected synergies and other benefits would be realized substantially in the amounts and at the times contemplated thereby. Lazard assumes no responsibility for and expresses no view as to any such forecasts or the assumptions on which they are based.

        In rendering its opinion, Lazard assumed, with the consent of HiSoft, that the merger would be consummated on the terms described in the merger agreement, without any waiver or modification of any material terms or conditions. Lazard also assumed, with the consent of HiSoft, that obtaining the necessary governmental, regulatory or third party approvals and consents for the merger and consummating the HiSoft Share Consolidation and the HiSoft ADS Adjustment would not have an adverse effect on HiSoft, VanceInfo or the merger. Lazard further assumed, with the consent of HiSoft, that the merger will qualify for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Lazard did not express

75

any opinion as to any tax or other consequences that might result from the merger, nor did its opinion address any legal, tax, regulatory or accounting matters, as to which Lazard understood that HiSoft obtained such advice as it deemed necessary from qualified professionals. Lazard expressed no view or opinion as to any terms or other aspects (other than the share exchange ratio and the ADS exchange ratio to the extent expressly specified in its opinion) of the merger, including, without limitation, the form or structure of the merger (including the form or structure of the HiSoft Share Consolidation and the HiSoft ADS Adjustment) or any agreements or arrangements (including, without limitation, any voting agreements) entered into in connection with, or contemplated by, the merger. In addition, Lazard expressed no view or opinion as to the fairness of the amount or nature of, or any other aspects relating to, the compensation to any officers, directors or employees of any parties to the merger, or class of such persons, relative to the share exchange ratio and the ADS exchange ratio or otherwise.

        The following is a summary of the material financial, comparative and other analyses and reviews that Lazard deemed appropriate in connection with rendering its opinion. The summary of Lazard's analyses and reviews provided below is not a complete description of the analyses and reviews underlying Lazard's opinion. The preparation of a fairness opinion is a complex process involving various determinations as to the most appropriate and relevant methods of analysis and review and the application of those methods to particular circumstances, and, therefore, is not readily susceptible to summary description. Considering selected portions of the analyses and reviews in the summary set forth below, without considering the analyses and reviews as a whole, could create an incomplete or misleading view of the analyses and reviews underlying Lazard's opinion.

        In arriving at its opinion, Lazard considered the results of all of its analyses and reviews and did not attribute any particular weight to any factor, analysis or review considered by it; rather, Lazard made its determination as to fairness on the basis of its experience and professional judgment after considering the results of all of its analyses and reviews.

        For purposes of its analyses and reviews, Lazard considered industry performance, general business, economic, market and financial conditions and other matters, many of which are beyond the control of HiSoft and VanceInfo. No company, business or transaction used in Lazard's analyses and reviews as a comparison is identical to HiSoft, VanceInfo or the merger, and an evaluation of the results of those analyses and reviews is not entirely mathematical. Rather, the analyses and reviews involve complex considerations and judgments concerning financial and operating characteristics and other factors that could affect the acquisition, public trading or other values of the companies, businesses or transactions used in Lazard's analyses and reviews. The estimates contained in Lazard's analyses and reviews and the ranges of valuations resulting from any particular analysis or review are not necessarily indicative of actual values or predictive of future results or values, which may be significantly more or less favorable than those suggested by Lazard's analyses and reviews. In addition, analyses and reviews relating to the value of companies, businesses or securities do not purport to be appraisals or to reflect the prices at which companies, businesses or securities actually may be sold. Accordingly, the estimates used in, and the results derived from, Lazard's analyses and reviews are inherently subject to substantial uncertainty.

        The summary of the analyses and reviews provided below includes information presented in tabular format. In order to fully understand Lazard's analyses and reviews, the tables must be read together with the full text of each summary. The tables alone do not constitute a complete description of Lazard's analyses and reviews. Considering the data in the tables below without considering the full description of the analyses and reviews, including the methodologies and assumptions underlying the analyses and reviews, could create a misleading or incomplete view of Lazard's analyses and reviews.

        Except as otherwise noted, the following quantitative information, to the extent that it is based on market data, is based on market data as it existed on or before August 7, 2012 and is not necessarily indicative of current market conditions. For purposes of Lazard's opinion and analyses, Lazard assumed

76

that, subject to the consummation of the HiSoft Share Consolidation and the HiSoft ADS Adjustment, each VanceInfo ADS would be cancelled in exchange for the right of the holder to receive one HiSoft ADS (each HiSoft ADS then representing one HiSoft common share, par value US$0.0001 per share). The foregoing would have yielded an exchange ratio of one VanceInfo ADS for each 0.734 HiSoft ADSs (each HiSoft ADS representing 19 HiSoft common shares) if the HiSoft Share Consolidation and the HiSoft ADS Adjustment were not given effect.

        The exchange ratios calculated by Lazard as set forth in this section "The Merger—Opinion of Financial Advisor to HiSoft" (i) do not take into account the rounding up of any fractional shares to the nearest whole number of shares contemplated by the merger agreement (thus the implied exchange ratios reflect approximated numbers) and (ii) take into account 125,795 VanceInfo Shares to be issued as payments for certain prior acquisitions made by VanceInfo.

Financial Analyses

Trading multiples of comparable listed companies analysis

        Lazard reviewed and analyzed certain publicly available financial information, valuation multiples and market trading data of the following publicly traded companies, and compared such information to the corresponding information for HiSoft and VanceInfo: AsiaInfo-Linkage, Chinasoft, Hexaware, iGATE, Infotech, iSoftStone, MindTree, MphasiS, Perficient, and Virtusa.

        The selected companies were chosen based on Lazard's knowledge of the information technology industry. Although none of the selected companies is directly comparable to HiSoft or VanceInfo, the selected companies are publicly traded companies with operations and/or other criteria, such as lines of business, markets, business risks, growth prospects, maturity of business and size and scale of business, that for purposes of its analysis Lazard considered similar to HiSoft and VanceInfo.

        Based on the closing share prices of the selected companies as of August 7, 2012, historical financial information of the selected companies contained in their public filings and analysts' estimates for the selected companies, Lazard calculated and reviewed the following metrics based on the treasury share count method and on a fully-diluted basis, among other things, with respect to each selected company:

•

share price as a multiple of estimated earnings per share, or P/E multiple, for 2012 and 2013; and

•

enterprise value as a multiple of estimated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EV/EBITDA multiple, for 2012 and 2013.

        The results of this analysis are summarized as follows:

	Selected Companies
	High		Median		Low
2012 Estimated P/E Multiple		13.8x		10.7x		6.1x
2013 Estimated P/E Multiple		12.1x		9.0x		5.0x
2012 Estimated EV/EBITDA Multiple		8.6x		7.0x		3.3x
2013 Estimated EV/EBITDA Multiple		7.3x		6.4x		2.5x

        Based on an analysis of the relevant metrics for each of the selected companies, Lazard selected a reference range of:

•

9.0x to 13.0x for 2012 estimated P/E multiple;

•

7.5x to 11.5x for 2013 estimated P/E multiple;

•

5.5x to 7.5x for 2012 estimated EV/EBITDA multiple; and

77

•

5.0x to 7.0x for 2013 estimated EV/EBITDA multiple.

        Lazard applied each such range of multiples to the relevant financial statistics of HiSoft and VanceInfo, as reflected in:

•

the financial forecasts for HiSoft prepared by the management of HiSoft;

•

the financial forecasts for VanceInfo prepared by the management of VanceInfo;

•

the publicly available financial forecasts for HiSoft prepared by a third party financial analyst which Lazard deemed to be representative of consensus third party analyst estimates; and

•

the publicly available financial forecasts for VanceInfo prepared by a third party financial analyst which Lazard deemed to be representative of consensus third party analyst estimates.

        Lazard determined indicative equity values based on the treasury share count method and on a fully-diluted basis by calculating the average of the low-end range values for each of HiSoft and VanceInfo for each metric during the two year period and the average of the high-end range values for each of HiSoft and VanceInfo for each metric during the two year period. Lazard subsequently calculated separate implied exchange ratios for the management estimates and the analyst projections by, in each case, dividing the lower VanceInfo implied equity value for such projections by the higher HiSoft implied equity value described above as well as dividing the higher VanceInfo implied equity value by the lower HiSoft implied equity value. These analyses indicated the following implied equity ranges and implied exchange ratios:

		Reference Ranges of Implied
Method Used		HiSoft Equity Values (Per ADS)	VanceInfo Equity Values (Per ADS)	ADS Exchange Ratio (Number of HiSoft ADSs for One VanceInfo ADS)(1)
P/E Multiple	Management	US$10.65 to US$15.65	US$7.30 to US$10.82	0.467 to 1.015 (or 0.636 to 1.383)
	Analyst	US$10.33 to US$15.16	US$8.13 to US$12.05	0.536 to 1.167 (or 0.730 to 1.589)
EV / EBITDA Multiple	Management	US$12.02 to US$15.05	US$8.40 to US$10.78	0.558 to 0.897 (or 0.760 to 1.222)
	Analyst	US$11.67 to US$14.56	US$8.61 to US$11.08	0.591 to 0.949 (or 0.805 to 1.293)

Implied ADS exchange ratio after the consummation of the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment are given in parentheses.

Discounted cash flow analyses

        Based upon HiSoft's management forecasts, Lazard performed a discounted cash flow analysis of HiSoft to determine the present value of HiSoft's estimated future cash flows by discounting to present value as of June 30, 2012 HiSoft's projected unlevered free cash flows from 2012 to 2017 and estimated value, or terminal value, of HiSoft as of December 31, 2017. For purpose of this analysis, unlevered free cash flow was defined as earnings before interest and taxes, less cash tax payments, plus depreciation and amortization, less capital expenditures, less cash payments for acquisitions, and less changes in working capital. Lazard calculated HiSoft's terminal values as of December 31, 2017 by multiplying HiSoft's estimated 2017 EBITDA by various exit EBITDA multiples ranging between 5.0x and 7.0x, which were selected by Lazard by reference to 2013 estimated EV/EBITDA multiples calculated for HiSoft as well as the 2013 estimated EV/EBITDA multiples calculated for the selected companies listed under "Trading multiples of comparable listed companies analysis" above. The

unlevered free cash flows and the terminal values were discounted to present value using discount rates ranging from 10.0% to 13.0%, reflecting estimates of HiSoft's weighted average cost of capital, or WACC, derived based on an analysis of estimates of the WACCs of the selected companies listed under "Trading multiples of comparable listed companies analysis" above. Based on the foregoing and using the treasury share count method on a fully-diluted basis, Lazard derived reference ranges of implied equity values per HiSoft ADS of US$13.50 to US$18.73.

        Based upon the VanceInfo management's forecasts, Lazard performed a discounted cash flow analysis of VanceInfo to determine the present value of VanceInfo's estimated future cash flows by discounting to present value as of June 30, 2012 VanceInfo's projected unlevered free cash flows from 2012 to 2017 and estimated value, or terminal value, of VanceInfo as of December 31, 2017. Lazard calculated VanceInfo's terminal values as of December 31, 2017 by multiplying VanceInfo's estimated 2017 EBITDA by various exit EBITDA multiples ranging between 5.0x and 7.0x, which were selected by Lazard by reference to 2013 estimated EV/EBITDA multiples calculated for VanceInfo as well as the 2013 estimated EV/EBITDA multiples calculated for the selected companies listed under "Trading multiples of comparable listed companies analysis" above. The unlevered free cash flows and the terminal values were discounted to present value using WACCs ranging from 10.0% to 13.0%. Based on the foregoing and using the treasury share count method on a fully-diluted basis, Lazard derived reference ranges of implied equity values per VanceInfo ADS of US$9.49 to US$13.62.

        Lazard subsequently calculated implied exchange ratios by dividing the lower VanceInfo implied equity value by the higher HiSoft implied equity value as well as dividing the higher VanceInfo implied equity value by the lower HiSoft implied equity value. This analysis indicated a reference range of implied exchange ratios of one VanceInfo ADS for 0.506 to 1.009 HiSoft ADSs (or 0.690 to 1.375 HiSoft ADSs after the consummation of the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment).

Additional Analyses

52-week high/low trading price analysis

        Lazard reviewed price data for HiSoft ADSs for the 52-week period ended August 7, 2012. Lazard observed that, during this period, the closing HiSoft ADS price ranged from US$8.35 to US$16.05 per ADS. Lazard also reviewed price data for VanceInfo ADSs for the 52-week period ended August 7, 2012. Lazard observed that, during this period, the closing VanceInfo ADS price ranged from US$6.46 to US$18.93 per ADS. Lazard subsequently calculated implied exchange ratios by dividing the lowest VanceInfo ADS closing price by the highest HiSoft ADS closing price as well as dividing the highest VanceInfo ADS closing price by the lowest HiSoft ADS closing price. This analysis indicated a reference range of implied exchange ratios of one VanceInfo ADS for 0.402 to 2.267 HiSoft ADSs (or 0.548 to 3.088 HiSoft ADSs after the consummation of the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment).

Equity research analyst price targets

        Lazard reviewed the 12-month target trading prices of HiSoft ADSs published by 7 research analysts (but excluding the highest and lowest such estimates), discounted such target trading prices by 12 months, at 11.5% cost of equity, which figure was derived from an analysis of the cost of equity of the selected companies listed under "Trading multiples of comparable listed companies analysis" above, and derived a reference range of implied equity values per HiSoft ADS of US$17.04 to US$20.63. Lazard also reviewed the 12-month target trading prices of VanceInfo ADSs published by 10 research analysts (but excluding the highest and lowest such estimates), discounted such target trading prices by 12 months, at 11.5% cost of equity, and derived a reference range of implied equity values per VanceInfo ADS of US$10.76 to US$14.35. Lazard subsequently calculated implied exchange ratios by dividing the lower VanceInfo target trading price by the higher HiSoft target trading price as well as

79

dividing the higher VanceInfo target trading price by the lower HiSoft target trading price. This analysis indicated a reference range of implied exchange ratios of one VanceInfo ADS for 0.522 to 0.842 HiSoft ADSs (or 0.711 to 1.147 HiSoft ADSs after the consummation of the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment).

Contribution analysis

        Based on HiSoft's and VanceInfo's respective management forecasts, Lazard reviewed the relative estimated contributions of HiSoft and VanceInfo to the estimated non-GAAP net income and estimated adjusted EBITDA, which is EBITDA plus estimated pre-tax interest income, of the combined company for 2012 and 2013. The implied exchange ratios, based on the treasury share count method and on a fully-diluted basis, resulting from the relative contribution analysis were as follows:

	Implied ADS Exchange Ratio(1)
2012 Estimated Non-GAAP Net Income:		0.666
		(or 0.907)
2013 Estimated Non-GAAP Net Income:		0.705
		(or 0.960)
2012 Estimated Adjusted EBITDA:		0.729
		(or 0.993)
2013 Estimated Adjusted EBITDA:		0.780
		(or 1.063)
Proposed Exchange Ratio:		0.734
		(or 1.000)

Historical exchange ratio analysis

        In order to provide background information and perspective on the relationship between the respective trading prices of HiSoft ADSs and VanceInfo ADSs, Lazard reviewed the arithmetic averages of the ratios of the closing prices of HiSoft ADSs over the periods set forth below divided by the closing prices of VanceInfo ADSs over the same periods. The results of Lazard's review are summarized in the following table:

	Average ADS Exchange Ratio(1)
As of August 7, 2012:		0.806
		(or 1.098)
Over 1-month ended August 7, 2012:		0.756
		(or 1.030)
Over 3-month ended August 7, 2012:		0.729
		(or 0.993)
Over 6-month ended August 7, 2012:		0.810
		(or 1.103)
Over 1-year ended August 7, 2012:		0.927
		(or 1.263)

Pro forma value accretion analysis.

        Based on HiSoft's and VanceInfo's respective management forecasts and estimated pro forma financial information prepared by managements of HiSoft and VanceInfo, Lazard analyzed the potential pro forma effect of the merger on HiSoft's projected non-GAAP earnings per ADS for the years 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016. Lazard compared the (i) estimated future stand-alone non-GAAP earnings per ADS of HiSoft for each of the years 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016 and (ii) estimated future non-GAAP earnings per ADS of the pro forma combined company for each of these years, as adjusted to reflect the HiSoft shares issued using the ADS exchange ratio in the merger. For purposes of this analysis, Lazard assumed, among other things, that the transaction would close on December 31, 2012, and that the combined company would realize the synergies anticipated by managements of HiSoft and VanceInfo. This analysis indicated that the merger is expected to be accretive to HiSoft's non-GAAP earnings per ADS in each of the years 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016.

Miscellaneous

        In connection with Lazard's services as HiSoft's financial advisor, HiSoft agreed to pay Lazard a fee for such services, a portion of which was payable upon the rendering of Lazard's opinion and a substantial portion of which is contingent upon the closing of the merger. HiSoft also agreed to reimburse Lazard for certain expenses incurred in connection with Lazard's engagement and to indemnify Lazard and certain related persons under certain circumstances against certain liabilities that may arise from or relate to Lazard's engagement, including certain liabilities under U.S. federal securities laws.

        In the ordinary course of their respective businesses, affiliates of Lazard and LFCM Holdings LLC (an entity indirectly owned in large part by current and former managing directors of Lazard and its affiliates) and their respective affiliates may actively trade securities of HiSoft and VanceInfo for their own accounts and for the accounts of their customers and, accordingly, may at any time hold a long or short position in such securities, and may also trade and hold securities on behalf of HiSoft, VanceInfo and certain of their respective affiliates. The issuance of Lazard's opinion was approved by the Opinion Committee of Lazard Frères & Co. LLC.

        Lazard is an internationally recognized investment banking firm providing a full range of financial advisory and other services. Lazard was selected to act as a financial advisor to HiSoft because of its qualifications, expertise and reputation in investment banking and mergers and acquisitions, as well as its familiarity with the business of HiSoft.

        Lazard's opinion was one of many factors considered by the HiSoft Board. Consequently, the summary of the analyses and reviews provided above should not be viewed as determinative of the opinion of the HiSoft Board with respect to the share exchange ratio and the ADS exchange ratio or of whether the HiSoft Board would have been willing to recommend a different transaction or determine that different share exchange ratio and the ADS exchange ratio were fair.

Opinion of Financial Advisor to VanceInfo

        VanceInfo has retained Citi to act as its financial advisor in connection with the merger. In connection with this engagement, VanceInfo requested Citi to evaluate the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the share exchange ratio to the holders of VanceInfo shares and of the ADS exchange ratio to the holders of VanceInfo ADSs. On August 10, 2012, Citi rendered to the VanceInfo board of directors a written opinion to the effect that, as of that date and based on and subject to the matters described in Citi's written opinion, the share exchange ratio is fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of VanceInfo shares and the ADS exchange ratio is fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of VanceInfo ADSs.

81

The full text of Citi's written opinion, dated August 10, 2012, which describes the assumptions made, procedures followed, matters considered and limitations on the review undertaken, is attached to this joint proxy statement/prospectus as Appendix D and is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this joint proxy statement/prospectus. You are urged to read the opinion in its entirety. Citi's opinion was provided to the VanceInfo board of directors in connection with its evaluation of the share exchange ratio and the ADS exchange ratio from a financial point of view. Citi's opinion does not address any other aspects or implications of the merger and does not constitute a recommendation to any stockholder as to how such stockholder should vote or act on any matters relating to the proposed merger. Citi's opinion does not address the underlying business decision of VanceInfo to effect the merger, the relative merits of the merger as compared to any alternative business strategies that might exist for VanceInfo or the effect of any other transaction in which VanceInfo may engage. The following is a summary of Citi's opinion and the methodology that Citi used to render its opinion.

        In arriving at its opinion, Citi:

•

reviewed the merger agreement;

•

held discussions with certain senior officers, directors and other representatives and advisors of VanceInfo and certain senior officers and other representatives and advisors of HiSoft concerning the businesses, operations and prospects of VanceInfo and HiSoft;

•

examined certain publicly available business and financial information relating to VanceInfo and HiSoft;

•

examined certain financial forecasts and other information and data relating to VanceInfo and HiSoft which were provided to or discussed with Citi by the respective managements of VanceInfo and HiSoft, including information relating to the potential strategic implications and operational benefits (including the amount, timing and achievability thereof) anticipated by the managements of VanceInfo and HiSoft to result from the merger;

•

reviewed the financial terms of the merger as set forth in the merger agreement in relation to, among other things, current and historical market prices and trading volumes of VanceInfo ADSs and HiSoft ADSs, the historical and projected earnings and other operating data of VanceInfo and HiSoft and the capitalization and financial condition of VanceInfo and HiSoft;

•

considered, to the extent publicly available, certain financial, stock market and other publicly available information relating to the businesses of VanceInfo, HiSoft and other companies whose operations Citi considered relevant in evaluating those of VanceInfo and HiSoft;

•

evaluated certain potential pro forma financial effects of the merger on HiSoft;

•

approached and held discussions with selected third parties to solicit indications of interest in possible strategic transactions with, in some cases including the possible acquisition of all or a part of, VanceInfo; and

•

conducted such other analyses and examinations and considered such other information and financial, economic and market criteria as Citi deemed appropriate in arriving at its opinion.

        In rendering its opinion, Citi assumed and relied, without independent verification, upon the accuracy and completeness of all financial and other information and data publicly available or provided to or otherwise reviewed by or discussed with Citi and upon the assurances of the managements of VanceInfo and HiSoft that they were not aware of any relevant information that was omitted or that remained undisclosed to Citi. With respect to financial forecasts and other information and data relating to VanceInfo and HiSoft provided to or otherwise reviewed by or discussed with Citi, Citi was advised by the respective managements of VanceInfo and HiSoft that such forecasts and other information and data were reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available

82

estimates and judgments of the managements of VanceInfo and HiSoft as to the future financial performance of VanceInfo and HiSoft, the potential strategic implications and operational benefits anticipated to result from the merger and the other matters covered thereby, and Citi assumed, with VanceInfo's consent, that the financial results (including the potential strategic implications and operational benefits anticipated to result from the merger) reflected in such forecasts and other information and data will be realized in the amounts and at the times projected.

        Citi assumed, with VanceInfo's consent, that the merger will be consummated in accordance with its terms, without waiver, modification or amendment of any material term, condition or agreement (including, in this respect, that each of the HiSoft Share Consolidation and the HiSoft ADS Adjustment will have been consummated on the terms described in the merger agreement) and that, in the course of obtaining the necessary regulatory or third party approvals, consents and releases for the merger, no delay, limitation, restriction or condition will be imposed that would have an adverse effect on VanceInfo, HiSoft or the contemplated benefits of the merger. Citi also assumed, with VanceInfo's consent, that the merger will be treated as a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes.

        Citi's opinion related to the relative values of VanceInfo and HiSoft. Citi did not express any view as to what the value of the HiSoft shares or HiSoft ADSs actually will be when issued pursuant to the merger or the price at which the HiSoft ADSs will trade at any time. Citi did not make, and it was not provided with, an independent evaluation or appraisal of the assets or liabilities (contingent or otherwise) of VanceInfo or HiSoft, and Citi did not make any physical inspection of the properties or assets of VanceInfo or HiSoft. Citi's opinion does not address VanceInfo's underlying business decision to effect the merger, the relative merits of the merger as compared to any alternative business strategies that might exist for VanceInfo or the effect of any other transaction in which VanceInfo might engage. Citi expressed no view as to, and its opinion does not address, the fairness (financial or otherwise) of the amount or nature or any other aspect of any compensation to any officers, directors or employees of any parties to the merger, or any class of such persons, relative to the share exchange ratio or the ADS exchange ratio. Citi's opinion was necessarily based upon information available to Citi, and financial, stock market and other conditions and circumstances existing, as of the date of its opinion.

        In preparing its opinion, Citi performed a variety of financial and comparative analyses, including those described below. This summary of these analyses is not a complete description of the analyses underlying, and factors considered in connection with, Citi's opinion. The preparation of a financial opinion is a complex analytical process involving various determinations as to the most appropriate and relevant methods of financial analysis and the application of those methods to the particular circumstances and, therefore, a financial opinion is not readily susceptible to summary description. Citi arrived at its ultimate opinion based on the results of all analyses undertaken by it and assessed as a whole, and did not draw, in isolation, conclusions from or with regard to any one factor or method of analysis for purposes of its opinion. Accordingly, Citi believes that its analyses must be considered as a whole and that selecting portions of its analyses and factors or focusing on information presented in tabular format, without considering all analyses and factors or the narrative description of the analyses, could create a misleading or incomplete view of the processes underlying its analyses and opinion.

        In its analyses, Citi considered industry performance, general business, economic, market and financial conditions and other matters existing as of the date of its opinion, many of which are beyond the control of VanceInfo and HiSoft. No company or business used in Citi's analyses as a comparison is identical or directly comparable to VanceInfo or HiSoft. An evaluation of Citi's analyses is not entirely mathematical; rather, the analyses involve complex considerations and judgments concerning financial and operating characteristics and other factors that could affect the acquisition, public trading or other values of the companies, business segments or transactions analyzed.

83

        The estimates contained in Citi's analyses and the valuation ranges resulting from any particular analysis are not necessarily indicative of actual values or predictive of future results or values, which may be significantly more or less favorable than those suggested by its analyses. In addition, analyses relating to the value of businesses or securities do not necessarily purport to be appraisals or to reflect the prices at which businesses or securities actually may be sold. Accordingly, the estimates used in, and the results derived from, Citi's analyses are inherently subject to substantial uncertainty.

        Citi was not requested to, and it did not, recommend the specific consideration payable in, or exchange ratio for, the merger. The type and amount of the consideration payable in the merger was determined through negotiations between VanceInfo and HiSoft, and the decision to enter into the merger was solely that of the VanceInfo board of directors. Citi's opinion was only one of many factors considered by the VanceInfo board of directors in its evaluation of the merger and should not be viewed as determinative of the views of the VanceInfo board of directors or VanceInfo management with respect to the merger, the share exchange ratio or the ADS exchange ratio.

        The following is a summary of the material financial analyses presented to the VanceInfo board of directors in connection with the delivery of Citi's opinion. The financial analyses summarized below include information presented in tabular format. In order to fully understand Citi's financial analyses, the tables must be read together with the text of each summary. The tables alone do not constitute a complete description of the financial analyses. Considering the data below without considering the full narrative description of the financial analyses, including the methodologies and assumptions underlying the analyses, could create a misleading or incomplete view of Citi's financial analyses.

Contribution Analysis

        Citi calculated the relative contributions of VanceInfo and HiSoft to the combined businesses' forecasted revenue, EBTIDA, non-GAAP EBIT, which is GAAP EBIT that has been adjusted by adding amortization of intangibles and stock-based stock compensation ("Non-GAAP EBIT") and Non-GAAP Net Income for calendar years 2012 and 2013, based on, with respect to VanceInfo, internal forecasts prepared by VanceInfo management and, with respect to HiSoft, internal forecasts prepared by HiSoft management.

        These analyses indicated the following implied exchange ratio reference range, as compared to the share exchange ratio and the ADS exchange ratio provided for in the merger agreement:

Implied Exchange Ratio Reference Range		Share Exchange Ratio		ADS Exchange Ratio
	0.77x - 1.18x		1.00x		1.00x

Selected Public Companies Analysis

        Citi performed a selected publicly traded companies analysis of VanceInfo and HiSoft by comparing certain financial and stock market information of VanceInfo, HiSoft and the following selected publicly traded companies, referred to as the selected public companies:

China IT Services—U.S. Listed

•

AsiaInfo-Linkage Inc.

•

Camelot Information Systems Inc.

•

HiSoft Technology International Limited

•

iSoftStone Holdings Ltd.

84

•

VanceInfo Technologies Inc.

China IT Services—China Listed

•

Chinasoft International Ltd.

•

Insigma Technology Co. Ltd.

•

Neusoft Corp.

•

Wonders Information Co. Ltd.

        Financial data of the selected public companies were based on publicly available research analysts' estimates, public filings and other publicly available information as of August 7, 2012. For the selected public companies, Citi reviewed:

•

firm value, which equals equity value (all fully diluted shares at the stock price less any option proceeds) plus debt, minority interest, preferred stock and out-of-the-money convertibles, less cash and other adjustments, as a multiple of (i) latest twelve months ("LTM") earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), and (ii) estimated EBITDA for calendar years 2012 and 2013;

•

equity value (all fully diluted shares at the stock price less any option proceeds) as a multiple of (i) LTM non-GAAP net income, which is GAAP net income that has been adjusted by adding amortization of intangibles and stock-based stock compensation ("Non-GAAP Net Income"), and (ii) estimated Non-GAAP Net Income for calendar years 2012 and 2013;

        Citi then applied selected ranges of multiples (derived primarily from the China IT Services—U.S. Listed companies) of firm value to estimated 2012 and 2013 EBITDA and of equity value to estimated 2012 and 2013 Non-GAAP Net Income to derive a selected reference range of implied equity value per share for each of VanceInfo and HiSoft (adjusted for the HiSoft Share Consolidation). Citi then derived an implied exchange ratio reference range based on these reference ranges of implied equity values per share.

        These analyses indicated the following implied exchange ratio reference range, as compared to the share exchange ratio and the ADS exchange ratio provided for in the merger agreement:

Implied Exchange Ratio Reference Range		Share Exchange Ratio		ADS Exchange Ratio
	0.67x - 1.27x		1.00x		1.00x

Discounted Cash Flow Analysis

        VanceInfo.    Citi performed a discounted cash flow analysis of VanceInfo by calculating the estimated present value of the standalone unlevered, after-tax free cash flows that VanceInfo was forecasted to generate during fiscal years 2012 through 2017 based on internal forecasts of VanceInfo's management. Estimated terminal values for VanceInfo were calculated by applying a range of terminal value EBITDA multiples of 4.0x to 6.0x to VanceInfo's fiscal year 2017 estimated EBITDA. The cash flows and terminal values were then discounted to December 31, 2012 using discount rates ranging from 10.9% to 14.0%, reflecting an estimate of the weighted average cost of capital of VanceInfo.

        HiSoft.    Citi performed a discounted cash flow analysis of HiSoft by calculating the estimated present value of the standalone unlevered, after-tax free cash flows that HiSoft was forecasted to generate during fiscal years 2012 through 2017 based on internal forecasts of HiSoft's management. Estimated terminal values for VanceInfo were calculated by applying a range of terminal value EBITDA multiples of 4.0x to 6.0x to HiSoft's fiscal year 2017 estimated EBITDA. The cash flows and

85

terminal values were then discounted to December 31, 2012 using discount rates ranging from 10.9% to 14.0%, reflecting an estimate of the weighted average cost of capital of HiSoft.

        These calculations produced a reference range of implied equity value per share for each of VanceInfo and HiSoft (adjusted for the HiSoft Share Consolidation). Citi then derived an implied exchange ratio reference range based on these reference ranges of implied equity value per share.

        These analyses indicated the following implied exchange ratio reference range, as compared to the share exchange ratio and the ADS exchange ratio provided for in the merger agreement:

Implied Exchange Ratio Reference Range		Share Exchange Ratio		ADS Exchange Ratio
	0.69x - 1.35x		1.00x		1.00x

Other Information

        Citi also reviewed, for informational purposes, the following:

•

Historical Trading Range:  Citi reviewed the implied historical exchange ratios for VanceInfo and HiSoft derived by dividing daily closing prices of VanceInfo ADSs and HiSoft ADSs (adjusted for the HiSoft Share Consolidation), noting that the range of ratios over a 52-week period implied an exchange ratio reference range of 0.89x - 2.26x.

•

Research Analysts' Price Targets:  Citi reviewed price targets for VanceInfo ADSs and HiSoft ADSs in recently published, publicly available Wall Street research analyst reports, noting that the low and high price targets for VanceInfo ADSs and HiSoft ADSs (adjusted for the HiSoft Share Consolidation) implied an exchange ratio reference range of 0.68x - 1.10x.

Miscellaneous

        Under the terms of Citi's engagement, VanceInfo has agreed to pay Citi for its financial advisory services in connection with the merger an aggregate fee of US$2 million, one-half of which was payable upon delivery of Citi's opinion and the other half of which is contingent upon consummation of the merger. VanceInfo also has agreed to reimburse Citi for reasonable expenses incurred by Citi in performing its services, including reasonable fees and expenses of its legal counsel, and to indemnify Citi and related persons against liabilities, including liabilities under the federal securities laws, arising out of its engagement.

        Citi and its affiliates in the past have provided services to VanceInfo and HiSoft unrelated to the proposed merger, for which services Citi and its affiliates have received compensation, including, without limitation, having acted as sole bookrunner in connection with the offering of an additional 2.53 million VanceInfo ADSs with an aggregate value of US$92.0 million in November 2010; having served as broker for VanceInfo in connection with its repurchase of 2.4 million VanceInfo ADSs during 2011; having acted as joint bookrunner in connection with the initial public offering of 7.4 million HiSoft ADSs with an aggregate value of US$74.0 million in July 2010; and having acted as joint bookrunner in connection with the offering of an additional 5.75 million HiSoft ADSs with an aggregate value of US$149.5 million in December 2010. In the ordinary course of its business, Citi and its affiliates may actively trade or hold the securities of VanceInfo and HiSoft for their own account or for the account of their customers and, accordingly, may at any time hold a long or short position in such securities. In addition, Citi and its affiliates (including Citigroup Inc. and its affiliates) may maintain relationships with VanceInfo, HiSoft and their respective affiliates.

        VanceInfo selected Citi to provide certain financial advisory services in connection with the merger based on Citi's reputation and experience. Citi is an internationally recognized investment banking firm

86

that regularly engages in the valuation of businesses and their securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions, negotiated underwritings, competitive bids, secondary distributions of listed and unlisted securities, private placements and valuations for estate, corporate and other purposes. The issuance of Citi's opinion was authorized by Citi's fairness opinion committee.

Effects of the Merger on VanceInfo

        If the merger is completed, Merger Sub will merge with and into VanceInfo, with VanceInfo continuing as the surviving company after the merger. Following the completion of the second step merger, which will occur immediately following the merger, VanceInfo will merge with and into Merger Sub II, with Merger Sub II continuing as the surviving company after the merger (under the name "VanceInfo Technologies Inc."). VanceInfo would continue its operations as a privately held company owned solely by HiSoft, and the VanceInfo ADSs will no longer be listed on the NYSE, VanceInfo will cease to be a publicly traded company and the VanceInfo ADS program will terminate.

        As promptly as practicable following completion of the merger and the second step merger, HiSoft will cause VanceInfo ADSs to be delisted from the NYSE and the VanceInfo shares to be deregistered under the Exchange Act. Registration under the Exchange Act may be terminated upon application to the SEC if the VanceInfo ADSs are neither listed on a national securities exchange nor held by 300 or more holders of record. As a result of such deregistration, VanceInfo will no longer be required to file reports with the SEC or otherwise be subject to the United States federal securities laws applicable to public companies.

Board of Directors and Management Following the Merger

        Immediately following the effective time, the HiSoft Board shall consist of a total of eight directors (at least a majority of which will be independent as determined under NASDAQ rules), of which (i) four directors will be selected by HiSoft (the "HiSoft Directors") and (ii) four directors will be selected by VanceInfo (the "VanceInfo Directors" and, together with the HiSoft Directors, the "Post-Effective Time Directors"). The Post-Effective Time Directors will agree, prior to the effective time, to take all such actions as are necessary, at or immediately following the effective time, to ensure that the anticipated order of retirement by rotation of the HiSoft Directors and the VanceInfo Directors shall be consistent with the principle that there shall be an equal number of HiSoft Directors and VanceInfo Directors. If at any time prior to the effective time, any board designee becomes unable or unwilling to serve as a director of HiSoft at the effective time, then the party that designated such individual will designate another individual to serve in such individual's place.

        At or prior to the effective time, the HiSoft Board shall take such actions as are necessary to appoint Mr. Tiak Koon Loh as Chief Executive Officer of the combined company and appoint Mr. Chris Shuning Chen as Non-Executive Chairman of the board of directors of the combined company, effective as of the effective time. In the event that either Mr. Loh or Mr. Chen is or will be unable to serve in his designated position beginning as of the effective time, either upon written notice by such individual prior to the effective time or as a result of such individual's death or disability, then the individual to replace Mr. Loh or Mr. Chen, as the case may be, shall be determined by the joint agreement of HiSoft and VanceInfo, each of which will cooperate in good faith with the other and use its reasonable best efforts to identify, as promptly as practicable and, in any event, prior to the effective time, the appropriate successor. See "The Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger—Board Representation Rights" on page 117 and "The Merger—Transition Management Committee" on page 117 for more information.

Interests of VanceInfo's and HiSoft's Directors and Executive Officers in the Merger

Interests of VanceInfo Directors and Executive Officers in the Merger

        In considering the recommendation of the VanceInfo Board that VanceInfo shareholders vote for the authorization and approval of the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the merger, VanceInfo shareholders should be aware that certain members of the VanceInfo Board and certain executive officers of VanceInfo have agreements and arrangements that provide them with interests in the merger that may differ from, or be in addition to, the interests of other VanceInfo shareholders generally. The VanceInfo Board was aware of these agreements and arrangements during its deliberations of the merits of the merger and in determining to recommend that VanceInfo shareholders vote for the authorization and approval of the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the merger. These interests are described below.

        As detailed above under "The Merger—Board of Directors and Management Following the Merger," it is anticipated that Mr. Chris Shuning Chen as Non-Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors of the combined company following the merger. Further three other individuals to be selected by VanceInfo will serve as directors of the combined company upon the consummation of the merger

Indemnification of VanceInfo Directors and Officers; Directors' and Officers' Insurance

        Pursuant to the merger agreement, HiSoft and the surviving company agree to indemnify and hold harmless each individual who at the effective time of the merger is, or at any time prior to the effective time was, a director or officer of VanceInfo or the VanceInfo Subsidiaries against any costs, expenses and other liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation arising out of or related to such individual's service as a director or officer of VanceInfo or the subsidiaries of VanceInfo, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the effective time of the merger. The memorandum and articles of association of the surviving company will also contain provisions with respect to rights to indemnification that are at least as favorable to the directors, officers or employees of VanceInfo as those contained in the memorandum and articles of association of VanceInfo as in effect as of August 10, 2012.

        In addition, for a period of six years after the effective time of the merger, HiSoft shall cause the surviving company to maintain the existing policies of directors' and officers' liability insurance of VanceInfo and the subsidiaries of VanceInfo for the benefit of those persons who are covered by such policies at the effective time, to the extent that such liability insurance can be maintained at a cost to HiSoft not greater than 250 percent of the annual premium for VanceInfo directors' and officers' liability insurance as of August 10, 2012. If such insurance cannot be so maintained or obtained at such costs, HiSoft shall maintain policies of insurance which in HiSoft's good faith determination, provide maximum coverage reasonably obtainable at an annual premium amount not in excess of 250 percent of the annual premium for the existing policies of VanceInfo and its subsidiaries. For more information, see "The Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger—Directors' and Officers' Insurance; Indemnification" beginning on page 116.

Interests of HiSoft's Directors and Executive Officers in the Merger

        Certain HiSoft directors and executive officers have interests in the merger that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of HiSoft shareholders generally. As detailed above under "The Merger—Board of Directors and Management Following the Merger," it is anticipated that Mr. Tiak Koon Loh will serve as Chief Executive Officer of the combined company following the merger. Further, three other individuals to be selected by HiSoft will serve as directors of the combined company upon the consummation of the merger.

Equity Awards for Key Executives of the Combined Company

        HiSoft and VanceInfo intend to establish a pool of equity and equity-based awards representing, in aggregate, up to 5% of the fully-diluted share capital of HiSoft following the completion of the merger to be allocated to key executives of the combined company, subject to applicable law and approval by the compensation committee and the board of directors of the combined company following the completion of the merger. The parties estimate that the maximum number of shares of the combined company to be issuable (including shares issuable upon exercise of options) in connection with the proposed new pool of equity and equity-based awards to be established after completion of the merger will be approximately 4,686,670, compared to an estimated total number of shares of the combined company to be issued and outstanding (including shares issuable as merger consideration) on a fully-diluted basis immediately following the completion of the merger of approximately 93,733,400.

Transition Management Committee

        VanceInfo and HiSoft have formed a Transition Management Committee comprised of Mr. Chris Shuning Chen from VanceInfo and Mr. Tiak Koon Loh from HiSoft. Each member of the Transition Management Committee will report directly to the board of directors of the company that selected such person. The Transition Management Committee is intended to support the efforts of VanceInfo and

90

HiSoft in planning and supporting implementation of the integration of the businesses of VanceInfo and HiSoft and their respective subsidiaries, subject to applicable law, including carrying out the following responsibilities:

•

acting as a locus of discussion concerning matters relating to transition planning, including employee matters and business matters;

•

discussing the establishment of a pool of equity and equity-based awards representing, in aggregate, up to 5% of the fully-diluted equity of HiSoft following the closing of the merger to be allocated to key executives of the combined company, subject to approval by the compensation committee of the combined company following closing of the merger;

•

determining any necessary adjustments to the terms of the HiSoft and VanceInfo equity compensation and incentive plans to, among other matters, ensure consistency with respect to material terms and conditions of such plans, subject to approval by the compensation committee of the combined company following the closing of the merger; and

•

coordinating the communications, public relations and investor relations strategy regarding the merger and the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement.

        Subject to applicable law, each of HiSoft and VanceInfo has agreed in the merger agreement to consider in good faith and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Transition Management Committee to support its efforts in the areas of its responsibility. Any action or request by the Transition Management Committee must be unanimously approved in writing by each member of the Transition Management Committee.

        Immediately following the execution of the merger agreement, the Transition Management Committee adopted resolutions which set forth certain principles approved and adopted by the Transition Management Committee. These principles included an allocation of roles and responsibilities between Mr. Tiak Koon Loh as Chief Executive Officer of the combined company and Mr. Chris Shuning Chen as Non-Executive Chairman of the combined company. Pursuant to these principles, Mr. Loh as Chief Executive Officer of the combined company will be responsible for (i) selecting the core executive team of the combined company, (ii) defining combined company culture and values, (iii) developing corporate strategy for the combined company, (iv) executing the business plan of the combined company and (v) chairing and leading meetings of the executive team of the combined company, and will be the primary individual with accountability for the operating results of the combined company. Pursuant to these principles, Mr. Chen, as Non-Executive Chairman of the combined company, will advise and support the Chief Executive Officer in the first four areas referenced above and will attend meetings of the executive team of the combined company as a guest and representative of the board of directors of the combined company. In addition, Mr. Chen will support Mr. Loh with respect to governmental relationships, strategic transactions and accounts and strategy development with business partners, and Mr. Chen has agreed to align his vote as a director of the combined company with Mr. Loh on matters of strategy and operation of the combined company.

        The resolutions approved and adopted by the Transition Management Committee included the following additional principles agreed by Mr. Loh and Mr. Chen:

•

Subject to the deliberation and approval by the compensation committee and board of directors of the combined company, in the event that Mr. Loh resigns as Chief Executive Officer of the combined company for any reason, or Mr. Loh's employment as Chief Executive Officer of the combined company terminates due to his death or disability, within three years after the completion of the merger, Mr. Loh will advise Mr. Chen on a successor Chief Executive Officer of the combined company and Mr. Chen will recommend a successor Chief Executive Officer of the combined company (which may be himself, if he so chooses) for consideration by the board of directors of the combined company, provided, however, that Mr. Chen shall not become Chief

91

Executive Officer of the combined company and shall abstain from the deliberation by the board of directors of the combined company with respect to the selection of such successor Chief Executive Officer if Mr. Loh's employment as Chief Executive Officer of the combined company is terminated by the combined company (pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the board of directors of the combined company) with or without cause within three years after the completion of the merger, in which case the independent directors of the board of directors of the combined company, by majority vote at a duly held meeting of the board of directors of the combined company, will nominate the Chief Executive Officer to succeed Mr. Loh, subject to approval of such nomination by the full board of directors of the combined company (with Mr. Chen abstaining from such vote).

•

Mr. Loh has agreed with Mr. Chen that he will not, and will cause his affiliates not to, offer for sale, sell, transfer (including transfers pursuant to private placements, open-market sales, 10b5-1 plans and Rule 144), contract to sell, or otherwise dispose of (including by the creation of any option, right, warrant to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of, or any lending, charges, pledges or encumbrances over, or by entering into any transaction which is designed to, or might reasonably be expected to, result in the disposition (whether by actual disposition or effective economic disposition due to cash settlement or otherwise)) any of the securities of the combined company beneficially owned by him ("Securities") (or any interest in any Securities or any voting or other right attaching to any Securities) or enter into any swap, derivative or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of the acquisition or ownership of any such Securities (any of the above, a "Transfer"), unless he first provides the board of directors of the combined company with at least 48 hours' prior written notice, which may be by email (a "Transfer Notice"), stating: (A) his bona fide intention to Transfer such Securities; (B) the name of each proposed purchaser or other transferee, if applicable ("Proposed Transferee"); (C) the number of Securities to be transferred to each Proposed Transferee, if applicable, or sold in the open market or pursuant to a 10b5-1 plan; and (D) the terms and conditions of each proposed Transfer, including the transfer price for such Securities.

•

Subject to the deliberation and approval by the compensation committee and board of directors of the combined company, for a period of three years following the completion of the merger, the salary remuneration of the Non-Executive Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer of the combined company will be the same, and the aggregate bonus and other compensation (including options, restricted share unit awards and other share-based compensation) for the Non-Executive Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer of the combined company will be the same, provided that such salary, bonus and other compensation will be structured in a manner which does not adversely affect the combined company's operating results and will conform to general practices.

•

Subject to the deliberation and approval by the compensation committee and board of directors of the combined company, the Non-Executive Chairman of the combined company may be granted a special bonus and/or share-based award following the completion of the merger in consideration of his contribution to a successful completion of the merger and successful transition and integration of VanceInfo and HiSoft, provided that the aggregate compensation package for the Non-Executive Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer of the combined company shall be the same over the three-year period following the completion of the merger (as provided above), provided that such bonus or award will be structured in a manner which does not adversely affect the combined company's operating results and will conform to general practices.

•

Subject to the deliberation and approval by the compensation committee and board of directors of the combined company, the board of directors of the combined company will determine

92

performance targets and performance-linked bonus amounts as well as target bonus earn-out arrangements for employees of the combined company. Subject to the combined company's enhanced performance, and subject to the combined company's compensation committee and board's deliberation and approval, the Chief Executive Officer will be granted bonus and/or additional share-based awards, provided that the aggregate compensation package for Non-Executive Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer of the combined company shall be the same over the three-year period following the completion of the merger (as provided above), provided that such benefits will be structured in a manner which does not adversely affect the combined company's operating results and will conform to general practices.

•

Subject to the deliberation and approval by the compensation committee and board of directors of the combined company, the other benefits (including medical and health insurance) of the Non-Executive Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer of the combined company will be the same for the three-year period following the completion of the merger and, in principle, will be no less than the pre-merger level, provided that such benefits will be structured in a manner which does not adversely affect the combined company's operating results and will conform to general practices.

•

With respect to the pool of equity and equity-based awards representing, in aggregate, up to 5% of the fully-diluted equity of the combined company to be established following the closing for allocation to key executives of the combined company, subject to the deliberation and approval by the compensation committee and board of directors of the combined company, a portion of such pool representing 0.5% of the fully-diluted equity of the combined company will be allocated to the Non-Executive Chairman of the combined company and former VanceInfo key executives as determined by Mr. Chen, and a portion of such pool representing 4.5% of the fully-diluted equity of the combined company will be allocated to key executives of the combined company as determined by Mr. Loh, with the allocation to the Non-Executive Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer of the combined company to be similar.

HiSoft Share Consolidation

        HiSoft will take all steps necessary and appropriate to conduct a consolidation of HiSoft shares, to be effective immediately prior to the effective time of the merger, pursuant to which every 13.9482 issued and unissued common shares of par value US$0.0001 per share in the share capital of HiSoft will be consolidated into one common share of par value US$0.00139482 per share (with any fractional shares being rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares), subject to the required affirmative vote in favor of such share consolidation being obtained at the HiSoft EGM and all other conditions to closing in the merger agreement having been satisfied or waived by the applicable party. See "The Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger—HiSoft Share Consolidation" on page 104 for more information on the effects of the HiSoft Share Consolidation and the procedures for effecting the HiSoft Share Consolidation.

HiSoft ADS Adjustment

        HiSoft will take all steps necessary and appropriate, to reduce the number of HiSoft shares represented by each HiSoft ADS from 19 to one, to be effective immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, subject to the required affirmative vote in favor of the Share Consolidation being obtained at HiSoft EGM and all other conditions to closing in the merger agreement having been satisfied or waived by the applicable party. See "The Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger—HiSoft ADS Adjustment" on page 105 for more information on the effects of the HiSoft ADS Adjustment and the procedures for effecting the HiSoft ADS Adjustment.

93

Amendment to the Memorandum and Articles of Association of HiSoft

        The HiSoft Board has approved, subject to HiSoft shareholder approval and the consummation of the merger, an amendment to the Sixth Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of HiSoft to, (i) reflect the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft Capital Increase, following which the authorized share capital of HiSoft will be 120,000,000 HiSoft shares, par value US$0.00139482, (ii) amend the name of HiSoft in Chinese and "Pactera Technology International Ltd." in English, and (iii) delete the additional or casting vote granted to the chairman of the meeting of the HiSoft Board in the case of any equality of votes. This summary is qualified in its entirety be by reference to the full text of the Form of Amendment No. 1 to the Memorandum and Articles of Association of HiSoft which is set forth as Exhibit A to the merger agreement, which is included in this joint proxy statement/prospectus as Appendix A hereto. In the event that this proposal is approved and adopted by HiSoft shareholders but the merger is not consummated, the proposed amendments to the memorandum and articles of association of HiSoft will not become effective.

Accounting Treatment

        The merger will be accounted for by HiSoft as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting under U.S. GAAP, with HiSoft treated as the acquirer. This means that HiSoft will allocate the purchase price to the fair value of VanceInfo's tangible and intangible assets and liabilities at the acquisition date, with the excess purchase price being recorded as goodwill. Under the acquisition method of accounting, goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually.

        For more detail on the accounting treatment of the merger, please see "Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information—Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements" beginning on page 161.

Structure of the Merger

        The merger agreement and the plan of merger provide for the merger of Merger Sub with and into VanceInfo, with VanceInfo continuing as the serving company after the merger, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the merger agreement. Immediately following the effective time of the merger, VanceInfo, as the surviving company in the merger, will be merged with and into Merger Sub II.

        Following the merger between VanceInfo and Merger Sub II, or the second step merger, Merger Sub II will be the surviving company, the separate corporate existence of VanceInfo will cease, Merger Sub II will be renamed "VanceInfo Technologies Inc." and Merger Sub II will be a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of HiSoft. The second step merger is intended to satisfy the requirements for the merger to be treated as a reorganization within the meaning of section 368(a) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1968, as amended, subject to the other conditions and qualifications described under "The Merger—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger".

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger

General

        The following discussion sets forth the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the merger to U.S. Holders (as defined below) of VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs. This discussion does not address the tax consequences of the merger under non-U.S., state, local or other tax laws or the tax consequences of transactions effectuated prior or subsequent to, or concurrently or in connection with, the merger. The following discussion is based on existing U.S. federal income tax law,

94

including the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, the Treasury Regulations thereunder, IRS rulings, judicial decisions and other administrative pronouncements, all as in effect on the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus. Neither HiSoft nor VanceInfo can provide any assurance that future legislative, administrative or judicial changes or interpretations will not affect the accuracy of the statements or conclusions set forth below. Any future change in the U.S. federal income tax law or interpretation thereof could apply retroactively and could affect the accuracy of the following discussion. In addition, HiSoft and VanceInfo will not seek any advance income tax ruling from the IRS regarding the tax consequences of the merger or any transactions entered into concurrently or in connection with the merger, and neither HiSoft nor VanceInfo can assure you that the IRS will agree with the conclusions expressed herein or that the conclusion expressed herein will be sustained by a U.S. court if so challenged.

        This discussion is addressed only to (1) VanceInfo shareholders to the extent that they exchange VanceInfo shares for HiSoft shares pursuant to the merger and (2) VanceInfo ADS holders to the extent that they exchange VanceInfo ADSs for HiSoft ADSs pursuant to the merger. Further, this discussion addresses only those U.S. Holders that hold their VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs as a capital asset under the Internal Revenue Code (generally, property held for investment).

        This discussion does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be important to particular investors in light of their individual circumstances, and does not address the tax consequences to investors subject to special tax rules, including, for example, investors that are:

•

a non-U.S. person or entity;

•

a tax-exempt organization or entity, a financial institution, a mutual fund or other regulated investment company, a dealer or broker in securities or an insurance company;

•

a trader who elects to mark-to-market its securities;

•

a person who holds VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs as part of an integrated investment such as a straddle, hedge, constructive sale, conversion transaction or other risk reduction transaction;

•

a person who holds VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs in an individual retirement or other tax-deferred account;

•

a person whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar;

•

certain former citizens or residents of the United States subject to Section 877 of the Internal Revenue Code;

•

an individual who received VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs, or who acquires HiSoft shares or HiSoft ADSs, pursuant to the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation or in connection with the performance of services;

•

a partnership or other flow-through entity (including an S corporation or a limited liability company treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) and persons who hold an interest in such entities;

•

a person subject to the alternative minimum tax; or

•

a person who owns directly, indirectly, or constructively 5% or more of VanceInfo's shares or will own 5% or more of HiSoft's shares pursuant to the merger, including a "five percent transferee shareholder."

95

        In general, a "five-percent transferee shareholder" is a person who holds VanceInfo shares and will own directly, indirectly or constructively through attribution rules, at least five percent of either the total voting power or total value of HiSoft shares immediately after the merger. The attribution rules for determining ownership are complex, and neither HiSoft nor VanceInfo can offer any assurance that you will not be a five-percent transferee shareholder based on your particular facts and circumstances. If you believe you could become a five-percent transferee shareholder of HiSoft, you are urged to consult your tax advisor about the special rules and time-sensitive tax procedures, including the requirement to file a gain recognition agreement under section 367(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, that might apply in order for you to obtain non-recognition treatment in the merger. Further, this discussion does not address the tax consequences to you if you own or owned (directly, indirectly or constructively) 10% or more of voting VanceInfo shares. Such a shareholder may be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax rules that cause income to be recognized as a result of the merger and is urged to consult with its tax advisor regarding the application of such rules.

        For purposes of this discussion and as used throughout this joint proxy statement/prospectus, the term "U.S. holder" means a beneficial owner of VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes (1) an individual resident or citizen of the United States, (2) a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created in or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, (3) an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax without regard to its source, or (4) a trust if (a) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over its administration and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all of the substantial decisions of such trust or (b) such trust has made a valid election to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

        You are strongly urged to consult your tax advisor as to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the merger, including the income tax consequences arising from your own unique facts and circumstances, and as to any estate, gift, state, local or non-U.S. tax consequences arising out of the merger and the ownership and disposition of HiSoft ADSs and/or HiSoft shares.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the mergers

        The following discussion as to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the merger assumes that the merger will be consummated through an initial merger of Merger Sub into VanceInfo, with VanceInfo surviving the merger, followed immediately thereafter by a second merger of VanceInfo into Merger Sub II, as described in the amendment to the merger agreement and HiSoft's registration statement on Form F-4, of which this joint proxy statement/prospectus is a part. The following discussion further assumes (1) the accuracy and completeness both initially and continuing as of the effective time of the registration statement on Form F-4, of which this joint proxy statement/prospectus is a part, of the facts, information, representations, and covenants contained in originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified, of the merger agreement and HiSoft's registration statement on Form F-4, (2) the accuracy and completeness, both initially and continuing as of such effective time, of certain statements, representations, covenants and agreements on factual matters made by HiSoft, Merger Sub, Merger Sub II and VanceInfo, (3) that such statements, representations, covenants and agreements referred to in clause (2) of this sentence are, and will continue to be as of the effective time of the registration statement on Form F-4, true and correct, (4) the absence of changes in existing facts and law, (5) the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents described in the opinion, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted as certified, conformed, photostatic, or electronic copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such copies, and (6) that where documents have been provided in draft form, the final executed versions of such documents will not differ materially from such drafts. Based on such assumptions, statements, representations, covenants and agreements made by HiSoft, Merger Sub, Merger Sub II and VanceInfo, the merger should qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of

96

section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. If any of these assumptions, representations, or covenants is inaccurate or is inconsistent with the actual facts, the merger may not qualify as a reorganization but rather be treated as a taxable transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In addition, as explained below, even if the merger qualifies as a reorganization, a U.S. Holder could be subject to tax on gain recognized under the PFIC rules if VanceInfo is or has been a PFIC during the U.S Holder's holding period. Although VanceInfo does not believe it is or has been a PFIC for any year, because PFIC status is a fact-intensive determination made on an annual basis, no assurance can be given that VanceInfo is not or has not been classified as a PFIC. Based solely upon and subject to the foregoing, the discussion in this paragraph and the following discussion constitute the opinion of Simpson Thacher & Bartlett, U.S. counsel to HiSoft, and Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, U.S. counsel to VanceInfo, to the extent that it states a legal conclusion relating to matters of U.S. federal income tax law, subject to the qualifications, assumptions and limitations set forth in HiSoft's registration statement on Form F-4, of which this joint proxy statement/prospectus is a part. No opinion is expressed with respect to the PFIC status of either HiSoft or VanceInfo.

        Assuming the merger is treated as a reorganization under section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and assuming VanceInfo is not and has not been a PFIC, you will not recognize gain or loss upon the receipt of (1) HiSoft shares in exchange for VanceInfo shares pursuant to the merger, or (2) HiSoft ADSs in exchange for your VanceInfo ADSs pursuant to the merger. In that event, (1) the aggregate tax basis of the HiSoft shares or HiSoft ADSs you receive in the merger will be the same as the aggregate tax basis of the VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs, respectively, you surrender in exchange therefor and (2) the holding period of the HiSoft shares or HiSoft ADSs you receive in the merger will include the holding period of the VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs, respectively, you surrender in exchange therefor.

        If the IRS successfully challenged the qualification of the merger as a reorganization under section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, you would generally be required to recognize gain or loss with respect to the VanceInfo shares and VanceInfo ADSs surrendered in the merger equal to the difference between the fair market value, as of the effective time of the merger, of the HiSoft shares or HiSoft ADSs you receive in the merger and your adjusted tax basis in the surrendered VanceInfo shares or ADSs. Generally, in such event, your tax basis in the HiSoft shares or HiSoft ADSs received by you would equal their fair market value as of the date of the merger, and your holding period for the HiSoft shares or HiSoft ADSs would begin on the day after the merger.

        If VanceInfo is classified as a PFIC for any tax year during which you hold or have held VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs, under proposed U.S. Treasury Regulations, special rules may apply to cause you to recognize gain with respect to the merger absent application of the "PFIC-for-PFIC Exception" discussed below. A non-United States corporation will generally be treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, if, in any particular taxable year, either (1) 75% or more of its gross income for such year consists of certain types of "passive" income or (2) 50% or more of the quarterly average of its assets (as determined on the basis of fair market value) during such year produce or are held for the production of passive income. Under the special rules:

a.

the merger may be treated as a taxable exchange even if such transaction qualifies as a "reorganization" for U.S. federal income tax purposes within the meaning of section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code;



b.

any gain on the exchange of VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs will be allocated ratably over your holding period;



c.

the amount allocated to the current tax year and any year prior to the first year in which VanceInfo was classified as a PFIC will be taxed as ordinary income;

97

d.

the amount allocated to each other tax year will be subject to tax at the highest rate of tax in effect applicable to you; and



e.

an interest charge applicable generally to underpayments of tax will be imposed on the tax attributable to each taxable year, other than the current taxable year or any year prior to the first year in which VanceInfo was classified as a PFIC, for the period the tax was deferred.

        Generally, if these special rules apply, your tax basis in the HiSoft shares or HiSoft ADSs received by you in the merger would equal their fair market value as of the date of the merger, and your holding period for the HiSoft shares or HiSoft ADSs would begin on the day after the merger.

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (1) the merger qualifies as a reorganization within the meaning of section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, (2) VanceInfo was classified as a PFIC for any tax year during which you hold or held VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs, and (3) HiSoft also qualifies as a PFIC for the tax year that includes the day after the effective date of the merger, then proposed U.S. Treasury Regulations generally provide that the special rules described above will not apply to the exchange of VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs for HiSoft shares or HiSoft ADSs, as applicable, pursuant to the merger. For purposes of this discussion, this exception is referred to as the "PFIC-for-PFIC Exception." In addition, to qualify for the PFIC-for-PFIC Exception, proposed U.S. Treasury Regulations require a U.S. Holder to report certain information to the IRS on Form 8621 together with such U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax return for the tax year in which the merger occurs. It is not expected that HiSoft will be classified as a PFIC for the tax year that includes the day after the effective date of the merger. Accordingly, it is anticipated that the PFIC-for-PFIC Exception would not be available to U.S. Holders with respect to the merger. You are urged to consult your tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the merger in the event either HiSoft or VanceInfo is treated as a PFIC.

Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of Holding HiSoft Shares and HiSoft ADSs

        The HiSoft 2011 20-F, which has been incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/ prospectus, contains a description of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences related to holding HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs. The description contained in the HiSoft 2011 20-F, however, is only a summary and does not purport to be a complete analysis of all potential tax effects resulting from the ownership of HiSoft shares or HiSoft ADSs (such as tax consequences for holders who are subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax law). You are urged to consult your tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. income and other tax considerations of an investment in HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs.

Material PRC Income Tax Consequences of the Merger

        Under the EIT Law, which took effect on January 1, 2008, enterprises established outside China whose "de facto management bodies" are located in the PRC are treated as "tax residents" and thus will generally be subject to enterprise income tax at the rate of 25% on their global income. On December 6, 2007, the State Council adopted the Regulation on the Implementation of PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, or Implementation Regulations, effective as of January 1, 2008, which defines a "de facto management body" as an establishment that has substantial and overall management and control over the business, operations, personnel, accounts and properties of an enterprise. The State Administration of Taxation, or the SAT, issued the Notice Regarding the Determination of Chinese-Controlled Offshore Incorporated Enterprises as PRC Tax Resident Enterprises on the Basis of De Facto Management Bodies, or Circular 82, on April 22, 2009. Circular 82 provides certain specific criteria for determining whether the "de facto management body" of a Chinese-controlled offshore incorporated enterprise is located in China. Under the EIT Law and its Implementation Regulations, PRC withholding tax at the rate of 10% is applicable to any income

98

generated after January 1, 2008 which is recognized by a "non-PRC tax resident" under the EIT Law to the extent such income is derived from sources within the PRC, provided that the "non-PRC tax resident" (1) does not have an establishment or place of business in the PRC or (2) has an establishment or place of business in the PRC, but the relevant China-sourced income is not effectively connected with the establishment or place of business, unless otherwise reduced or exempted by the relevant tax treaties of the jurisdiction of incorporation of such "non PRC resident" with China.

        The EIT Law and its Implementation Regulations are relatively new and ambiguities exist with respect to the interpretation of the provisions relating to resident enterprise issues. Although Circular 82 only applies to offshore enterprises controlled by PRC enterprises, not those invested in by PRC individuals, like HiSoft, the determining criteria set forth in Circular 82 may reflect the State Administration of Taxation's general position on how the "de facto management body" test should be applied in determining the tax resident status of offshore enterprises, regardless of whether they are controlled by PRC enterprises or controlled by or invested in by PRC individuals. Therefore, HiSoft cannot assure you that it will not be deemed to be a PRC tax resident enterprise under the EIT Law and its Implementation Regulations.

        Under the Circular on Strengthening the Administration of Enterprises Income Tax on Non-resident Enterprises' Equity Transfer Income, or Circular 698, issued by the SAT, which became effective retroactively as of January 1, 2008, and the Bulletin on Certain Issues regarding Administration of Enterprise Income Tax on Non-resident Enterprises, or Bulletin 24, which was issued by the SAT and became effective as of April 1, 2011, if any non-PRC tax residents transfer equity of a non-resident enterprise that has underlying PRC investments, rather than purchasing and transferring the stock of a non-PRC tax resident enterprise through a public securities market (with the volume and price determined pursuant to the standard trading rules of the public security market rather than being determined by the purchaser and seller by mutual agreement prior to the transaction), the non-PRC tax resident may be subject to reporting requirements and may be subject to a 10% PRC income tax on the gain from such equity transfer. If the transaction is assessed by the SAT as tax evasion without good commercial reasons, according to Circular 698 and Bulletin 24, where the non-PRC tax resident indirectly holds and transfers equity of a PRC tax resident held through an offshore holding company, which was established in a jurisdiction with either (1) an effective tax rate less than 12.5% or (2) a tax exemption for the foreign-sourced income arising out of such equity transfer, the non-resident enterprise shall be required to file with the relevant PRC taxation authorities certain information and materials about the equity transfer and the business, personnel, accounting, assets, operation and capital relationship between the non-resident enterprise and the offshore holding company. Where any such PRC taxation authorities, upon review and examination of the documents submitted by the non-resident enterprise, deem such offshore holding company to be a vehicle incorporated for the purpose of tax evasion and without reasonable commercial purposes, they have the power to redefine the nature of the offshore share transfer transaction, deny the existence of the offshore holding company that is used for tax-avoidance purposes and impose a 10% income tax on the gain generated from such offshore share transfer after review and approval by the SAT.

        VanceInfo does not believe that a gain recognized on the receipt of the merger consideration for VanceInfo ADSs or VanceInfo shares pursuant to the merger by VanceInfo ADS holders or VanceInfo shareholders who are non-PRC tax resident enterprises should be subject to PRC income tax according to Circular 698. If, however, the SAT, were to determine that VanceInfo should be treated as a resident enterprise under the EIT Law and Circular 82 or that the receipt of the merger consideration for VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs should otherwise be subject to PRC income tax under Circular 698, then a gain recognized on the receipt of the merger consideration for VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs pursuant to the merger by VanceInfo shareholders or VanceInfo ADS holders, respectively, who are non-PRC tax resident under the EIT Law could be treated as PRC-source income

99

that would be subject to PRC withholding tax at a rate of 10%, unless otherwise reduced or exempted pursuant to an applicable tax treaty.

        HiSoft's and VanceInfo's current understanding is that none of HiSoft, Merger Sub or VanceInfo will be required to deduct or withhold any amount from the Merger Consideration under any applicable PRC laws. First, there is uncertainty as to the application and interpretation of Circular 698 (for example, the term "Indirect Transfer" is not clearly defined and the relevant authority has not yet promulgated any formal interpretations or declarations as to the process and format for reporting an Indirect Transfer to the competent tax authority of the relevant PRC resident enterprise). Second, the merger is an offshore transaction between overseas public companies, and the PRC tax laws are ambiguous as to the withholding obligation for this kind of offshore transaction. Third, neither HiSoft nor VanceInfo believes the merger is a taxable "Indirect Transfer" in the context of Circular 698 because HiSoft and VanceInfo have good commercial reason to consolidate their respective IT outsourcing business in China, and VanceInfo's shareholders did not transfer their VanceInfo shares in exchange for cash in the merger (instead such shareholders will continue their investments in the information technology services and research and development services through exchanging VanceInfo shares for HiSoft shares), and VanceInfo's business structure within China and outside of China was not changed prior to, and has not changed since, the merger. Fourth, neither of HiSoft or VanceInfo is aware of any past transactions of the same or a similar nature and structure as the merger ever having been made subject to Circular 698. In the event that circumstances change and a deduction or withholding is required, each of the surviving company, VanceInfo, HiSoft and the exchange agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to the merger agreement such amounts as it reasonably determines is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any applicable tax laws of the PRC. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate governmental entity by the surviving company, VanceInfo, HiSoft or the exchange agent, as the case may be, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of the merger agreement as having been paid to the holder of VanceInfo shares or VanceInfo ADSs in respect to which such deduction and withholding was made by the surviving company or HiSoft, as the case may be. In the event that deduction or withholding in respect of PRC tax is necessary, HiSoft and VanceInfo will revise this joint proxy statement/prospectus to describe the proposed deduction or withholding, and HiSoft will file with the SEC an amendment to its registration statement on Form F-4, which will include the revised joint proxy statement/prospectus. You should consult your own tax advisor for a full understanding of the tax consequences of the merger to you, including any PRC tax consequences.

Material Cayman Islands Tax Consequences of the Merger

        The Cayman Islands currently has no form of income, corporate or capital gains tax and no estate duty, inheritance tax or gift tax. No taxes, fees or charges will payable (either by direct assessment or withholding) to the Cayman Islands government or other taxing authority in the Cayman Islands under the laws of the Cayman Islands in respect of the merger or the receipt of the merger consideration by VanceInfo shareholders or VanceInfo ADS holders under the terms of the merger agreement. This is subject to the qualification that (1) Cayman Islands stamp duty may be payable if any original transaction documents, including the merger agreement, are brought to or executed in the Cayman Islands; and (2) registration fees will be payable to the Cayman Islands Registrar of Companies to register the plan of merger.

Appraisal Rights

        Holders of VanceInfo shares and VanceInfo ADSs are not entitled to exercise any appraisal rights in connection with the merger under Cayman Islands law or the memorandum and articles of association of VanceInfo. Holders of HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs are not being asked to vote on

100

the merger, the merger agreement or the plan of merger; accordingly, holders of HiSoft shares and HiSoft ADSs have no appraisal rights in connection with the merger under Cayman Islands law or the memorandum and articles of association of HiSoft.

Effects on VanceInfo if the Merger is Not Completed

        If the merger is not completed for any reason, including but not limited to VanceInfo shareholders not authorizing and approving the merger agreement, the plan of merger and the merger or HiSoft shareholders not authorizing and approving the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Articles Amendments and the HiSoft Share Issuance, VanceInfo shareholders and ADS holders will not receive any merger consideration nor will the holders of any VanceInfo share options or restricted share units receive HiSoft share options or HiSoft restricted share units pursuant to the merger agreement. In addition, VanceInfo will remain a public company. The VanceInfo ADSs will continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE, provided that VanceInfo continues to meet the NYSE's listing requirements. In addition, VanceInfo will remain subject to SEC reporting obligations. Therefore, VanceInfo shareholders and ADS holders will continue to be subject to similar risks and opportunities as they currently are with respect to ownership of VanceInfo shares and ADSs.

        Under specified circumstances in which the merger agreement is terminated, VanceInfo may be required to pay HiSoft a termination fee, or HiSoft be required to pay VanceInfo a termination fee, in each case, as described under the caption "The Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger—Termination Fees" beginning on page 121.

NASDAQ Listing of HiSoft Shares; Delisting and Deregistration of VanceInfo Shares

        It is a condition to the completion of the merger that HiSoft ADSs to be issued to VanceInfo ADS holders in the merger be authorized for listing on NASDAQ, subject to official notice of issuance. It is expected that, following the merger, HiSoft will change its trading symbol for the HiSoft ADSs on NASDAQ.

        Following completion of the merger, the VanceInfo ADSs will be delisted from the NYSE and the VanceInfo ordinary shares will be deregistered under the Exchange Act.

THE MERGER AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

The following is a summary of the merger agreement, the plan of merger and of certain other key aspects of the merger. This summary does not purport to be a complete description of the terms and conditions of the merger agreement or the plan of merger and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the merger agreement and the plan of merger, copies of which are attached as Appendix A to this joint proxy statement/prospectus and incorporated herein by reference. HiSoft shareholders and VanceInfo shareholders are urged to read the merger agreement and the plan of merger in their entirety. In the event of any discrepancy between the terms of the merger agreement or the plan of merger and the following summary, the merger agreement and the plan of merger will control.

The Merger

        The merger agreement and the plan of merger provide for the merger of Merger Sub with and into VanceInfo, with VanceInfo continuing as the surviving company after the merger, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the merger agreement and in accordance with the Cayman Islands Companies Law (2011 Revision). Thereafter, the parties will complete a second step merger which will occur immediately following the merger, in which VanceInfo will merge with and into Merger Sub II, with Merger Sub II continuing as the surviving company after the merger (under the name "VanceInfo Technologies Inc."). Following the completion of the merger and the second step merger, VanceInfo will cease to be a publicly-traded company and will continue its operations as a privately held company wholly-owned by HiSoft.

Closing and Effective Time of the Merger

        The closing of the merger will occur within three business days after all of the closing conditions set forth in the merger agreement have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the closing, but subject to the fulfillment or waiver of those conditions at the closing). At the closing or as soon as practicable thereafter, Merger Sub and VanceInfo will execute the plan of merger and file the plan of merger and other related documents with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands. The merger will become effective when the plan of merger has been registered by the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands or at such other subsequent date or time thereafter as HiSoft, Merger Sub and VanceInfo may agree and specify in the plan of merger in accordance with the Cayman Companies Law. At the effective time of the merger, VanceInfo will continue as the surviving entity and the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease.

Directors and Executive Management Following the Merger

        The board of directors of the combined company after the merger will initially consist of eight directors. Mr. Tiak Koon Loh, HiSoft's Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, and a member of the HiSoft Board, will remain CEO of the combined company and a member of the combined company's board of directors. Mr. Chris Shuning Chen, VanceInfo's founder, CEO and Chairman of the VanceInfo Board, will become the Non-Executive Chairman of the combined company's board of directors. Of the remaining six directors, HiSoft and VanceInfo will each designate three directors.

Merger Consideration

        At the effective time of the merger, by virtue of the merger and without any action on the part of HiSoft, Merger Sub or VanceInfo or any other shareholders of VanceInfo:

1.

other than as provided in paragraph 2 immediately below, subject to the consummation of the consolidation of the share capital of HiSoft, following which every 13.9482 issued and unissued HiSoft shares, par value US$0.0001 per share, would be consolidated into one HiSoft share,

102

par value US$0.00139482 per share, of HiSoft (the "HiSoft Share Consolidation"), each VanceInfo share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger (other than the Excluded Shares (as defined below)), will be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive one HiSoft share (the "share exchange ratio") which, as of the date of the merger agreement, has a par value of US$0.0001 per share and, immediately prior to the effective time of the merger, will have a par value of US$0.00139482 per share (such number of HiSoft shares, the "Per Share Merger Consideration"); and

2.

subject to the consummation of the Share Consolidation and the reduction of the number of common shares of HiSoft represented by each HiSoft ADS from 19 to 1 (such reduction of HiSoft ADSs the "ADS Adjustment"), each VanceInfo ADS will be surrendered in exchange for the right to receive one HiSoft ADS which, as of the date of the merger agreement, represents 19 HiSoft shares and, immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, will represent one HiSoft share (such number of HiSoft ADSs, the "Per ADS Merger Consideration" and together with the Per Share Merger Consideration, the "Merger Consideration").

        As of the effective time of the merger, all of the VanceInfo shares, including VanceInfo shares represented by VanceInfo ADSs, shall, by virtue of the merger and without any action on the part of its holder, automatically be cancelled, shall not be issued or outstanding and shall cease to exist, and the register of members of VanceInfo will be amended accordingly. Each VanceInfo share (other than the Excluded Shares) shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration, without interest. Each VanceInfo share represented by a VanceInfo ADS, together with such VanceInfo ADS, shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Per ADS Merger Consideration, without interest.

        "Excluded Shares" means each VanceInfo ordinary share and each VanceInfo ADS issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger that is (i) issued to the VanceInfo depositary and reserved for future grants under VanceInfo's share incentive plans, (ii) repurchased and held by VanceInfo in treasury or by the VanceInfo depositary either in the form of VanceInfo ordinary shares or VanceInfo ADSs, or (iii) owned by HiSoft, Merger Sub or any direct or indirect subsidiary of HiSoft, Merger Sub or VanceInfo. All Excluded Shares shall, by virtue of the merger and without any action on the part of its holder, be cancelled, shall not be issued or outstanding and shall cease to exist, the register of members of VanceInfo will be amended accordingly, and no consideration shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange therefor.

        Notwithstanding anything to contrary, if between the date of the merger agreement and the effective time of the merger, the outstanding VanceInfo shares or HiSoft shares, as applicable, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for VanceInfo shares or HiSoft shares, as applicable, shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class by reason of the occurrence or record date of any share dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, reverse split, combination, consolidation, readjustment, exchange of shares or similar transaction, the Per Share Merger Consideration and Per ADS Merger Consideration, respectively, will be appropriately adjusted to reflect such share dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, reverse split, combination, consolidation, readjustment, exchange of shares or similar transaction, except that no such adjustment will be made in connection with the HiSoft Share Consolidation.

Treatment of VanceInfo Equity Awards

        Each VanceInfo share option that is outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger, whether or not exercisable or vested, will, at the effective time of the merger, be assumed by HiSoft and be replaced by HiSoft with a HiSoft share option. Each such HiSoft share option will be exercisable for that number of whole HiSoft shares (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal

103

to the product of (1) the total number of VanceInfo ordinary shares subject to such VanceInfo share option multiplied by (2) the share exchange ratio, at an exercise price per HiSoft share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the exercise price per share of the VanceInfo share option by (y) the share exchange ratio. Each such HiSoft share option will otherwise continue to have, and will be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to the VanceInfo share option immediately prior to the effective time of the merger, unless the Transition Management Committee determines that there shall be necessary adjustments to the terms of the HiSoft and VanceInfo equity compensation and incentive plans to ensure consistency with respect to material terms and conditions of such plans (and the compensation committee and the board of directors of the combined company approves any such proposed adjustments).

        Each VanceInfo restricted share unit that is outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger, whether vested or unvested, will, at the effective time of the merger, be assumed by HiSoft and be replaced by HiSoft with a number of HiSoft restricted share units equal to the product of (1) the total number of VanceInfo shares subject to such VanceInfo restricted share unit multiplied by (2) the share exchange ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole HiSoft share. Each such HiSoft restricted share unit will otherwise continue to have, and will be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to such VanceInfo restricted share unit immediately prior to the effective time of the merger, unless the Transition Management Committee determines that there shall be necessary adjustments to the terms of the HiSoft and VanceInfo equity compensation and incentive plans to ensure consistency with respect to material terms and conditions of such plans (and the compensation committee and the board of directors of the combined company approves any such proposed adjustments).

        The VanceInfo share incentive plans and all obligations thereunder will be assumed by HiSoft effective as of the effective time of the merger.

HiSoft Share Consolidation

        HiSoft will take all steps necessary and appropriate to conduct a consolidation of HiSoft shares, to be effective immediately prior to the completion of the merger, pursuant to which every 13.9482 issued and unissued common shares of par value US$0.0001 per share in the share capital of HiSoft will be consolidated into one common share of par value US$0.00139482 per share (with any fractional shares being rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares), subject to the required affirmative vote in favor of such share consolidation being obtained at the HiSoft EGM and all other conditions to closing in the merger agreement having been satisfied or waived by the applicable party.

        Effect of the HiSoft Share Consolidation.    The number of HiSoft shares held by HiSoft shareholders will not change until immediately prior to the completion of the merger. Following completion of the merger, HiSoft shareholders will own one HiSoft share for every 13.9482 HiSoft shares owned immediately prior to the completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation. Based on a HiSoft ADS price of US$11.88 per ADS (which was the closing per ADS price of the HiSoft ADSs on August 9, 2012, the last full trading day prior to the public announcement of the merger), each HiSoft share would have an implied value of approximately US$0.6253 per share immediately prior to completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation and approximately US$8.7213 per share following completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation (in each case, based on a 19-to-1 HiSoft share-to-ADS ratio).

104

        The following table sets forth an example which illustrates the effect of the HiSoft Share Consolidation:

Prior to Completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation
Number of HiSoft Shares Held (A)	Approximate Implied HiSoft Per Share Price (B)(1)	Approximate Implied Total Value of HiSoft Shares Held (C) = (A × B)
139,482	US$0.6253	US$87,213

13.9482-to-1 HiSoft Share Consolidation

Following Completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation
Number of HiSoft Shares Held (D)	Approximate Implied HiSoft Per Share Price (E)(2)	Approximate Implied Total Value of HiSoft Shares Held (F) = (D × E)
10,000	US$8.7213	US$87,213

(1)

Based on a HiSoft ADS price of US$11.88 per HiSoft ADS (which was the closing sale per ADS price of the HiSoft ADSs on August 9, 2012, the last full trading day prior to the public announcement of the merger) and a 19-to-1 HiSoft share-to-ADS ratio.

(2)

Based on an implied share price of a HiSoft share prior to completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation of US$0.6253 multiplied by the share consolidation ratio of 13.9482 (based on a HiSoft ADS price of US$11.88 per ADS and a 19-to-1 HiSoft share-to-ADS ratio).

        Procedures.    Promptly following the HiSoft Share Consolidation becoming effective, HiSoft will deliver a letter of transmittal to each HiSoft shareholder who holds certificates evidencing his or her HiSoft shares. This letter will explain the procedures for a HiSoft shareholder to surrender his or her existing certificates evidencing HiSoft shares in exchange for new certificates evidencing the new number of HiSoft shares owned by such HiSoft shareholder after completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation. If you are an existing HiSoft shareholder who owns uncertificated HiSoft shares, you do not need to take any action in connection with the HiSoft Share Consolidation. Following the HiSoft Share Consolidation, HiSoft's share registrar will update the HiSoft register of members to reflect the adjusted number of shares held by each existing HiSoft shareholder.

HiSoft ADS Adjustment

        HiSoft will take all steps necessary and appropriate, to reduce the number of HiSoft shares represented by each HiSoft ADS from 19 to one, to be effective immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, subject to the required affirmative vote in favor of the Share Consolidation being obtained at HiSoft EGM and all other conditions to closing in the merger agreement having been satisfied or waived by the applicable party.

        Effect of the HiSoft ADS Adjustment.    Each HiSoft ADS will continue to represent 19 HiSoft shares until immediately prior to the completion of the HiSoft ADS Adjustment. Following completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation and the HiSoft ADS Adjustment, each HiSoft ADS will represent one HiSoft share.

105

        The following table sets forth an example which illustrates the effect of the HiSoft ADS Adjustment:

Prior to Completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment
Number of HiSoft ADSs Held (A)	Price Per ADS (B)(1)	Approximate Value of HiSoft ADSs Held (C) = (A × B)	Number of Underlying HiSoft Shares (D)	Implied HiSoft Share Price (E)(1)	Approximate Implied Total Value of HiSoft Shares Held (F) = (D × E)
10,000	US$11.88	US$118,800	190,000	US$0.6253	US$118,800

HiSoft ADS Adjustment

Following Completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment
Number of HiSoft ADSs Held (G)(2)	Price Per ADS (H)(3)	Approximate Value of HiSoft ADSs Held (I) = (G × H)	Number of Underlying HiSoft Shares Held (J)	Implied HiSoft Per Share Price (K)(3)	Approximate Implied Total Value of HiSoft Shares Held (L) = (J × K)
13,622	US$8.7213	US$118,800	13,622	US$8.7213	US$118,800

(1)

Based on a HiSoft ADS price of US$11.88 per HiSoft ADS (which was the closing sale per ADS price of the HiSoft ADSs on August 9, 2012, the last full trading day prior to the public announcement of the merger) and a 19-to-1 HiSoft share-to-ADS ratio.

(2)

Based on a 19-to-1 share-to-ADS ratio, as adjusted for the 13.9482-to-1 share consolidation ratio.

(3)

Based on implied share price of a HiSoft Share prior to completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation of US$0.6253 multiplied by the share consolidation ratio of 13.9482 (based on a HiSoft ADS price of US$11.88 per ADS (which was the closing sale per ADS price of the HiSoft ADSs on August 9, 2012, the last full trading day prior to the public announcement of the merger)).

        Procedures.    Holders of HiSoft American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs") do not need to take any action in connection with the HiSoft Share Consolidation and the HiSoft ADS Adjustment. Following the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment becoming effective, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as the HiSoft depositary (the "HiSoft depositary"), will deliver to the registered holders of HiSoft ADRs additional HiSoft ADRs evidencing the additional HiSoft ADSs resulting from the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment. In lieu of fractional HiSoft ADSs resulting from the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment, the HiSoft depositary has been instructed to arrange for the distribution of cash in lieu of fractional shares. Holders of physical ADRs may surrender to the HiSoft depositary such ADRs and request replacement ADRs in accordance with the terms of the HiSoft Depositary Agreement.

106

Exchange Procedures for VanceInfo Shares and ADSs

Holders of VanceInfo ordinary shares

        Within five business days after the effective time of the merger, the combined company will mail to each registered holder of the VanceInfo shares (other than the VanceInfo depositary and holders of the Excluded Shares) (1) a form of letter of transmittal specifying the manner in which delivery of the Per Share Merger Consideration to registered holders of the VanceInfo shares will be effected and (2) instructions for effecting the surrender of share certificates representing the VanceInfo shares in exchange for the right to receive the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration at the effective time of the merger.

        Each registered holder of VanceInfo shares (including uncertificated shares) will be entitled to receive the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration, without interest, for each such share, provided that (1) each holder of a VanceInfo share certificate will be required to surrender such certificate (or a declaration of loss or non-receipt and, if applicable, indemnity in a required form) to HiSoft's share registrar and (2) each registered holder of VanceInfo shares will be required to submit to HiSoft's share registrar agent the letter of transmittal, duly executed and completed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the exchange agent.

Holders of VanceInfo ADSs

        HiSoft has, with VanceInfo's approval, appointed Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas to act as exchange agent for the purpose of cancelling the VanceInfo ADSs in exchange for the Per ADS Merger Consideration. Prior to the effective time of the merger, HiSoft will deposit, allot and issue, with the exchange agent a number of HiSoft ADSs sufficient to settle the aggregate Per ADS Merger Consideration.

        The exchange agent will be entitled to receive the Per ADS Merger Consideration, without interest, for each VanceInfo share in respect of which a VanceInfo ADS has been issued (other than those VanceInfo ADSs represented by VanceInfo shares reserved for future grants under the VanceInfo share incentive plans) (the "Aggregate ADS Payment").

following the end of such notice period, such party's board of directors will have considered in good faith any revisions to the merger agreement proposed in writing by the other party , and will have determined in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel, that failure to effect a change of recommendation would constitute a breach of the directors' fiduciary duties under applicable law.

•

permit a party to terminate the merger agreement;

•

release a party from its obligation to hold the shareholder meeting described below under "The Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger—Shareholders' Meetings";

•

by mutual written consent of VanceInfo and HiSoft; or

•

by either HiSoft or VanceInfo, if:

•

the merger is not completed by February 10, 2013, provided that this termination right is not available to a party if the failure of the merger to have been completed on or before such date was primarily due to a willful and material breach or failure of such party to perform any of its obligations under the merger agreement;

•

•

by HiSoft, if:

the representations and warranties of VanceInfo are not true and correct or VanceInfo has breached or failed to perform any of its covenants or agreements contained in the merger agreement, and such breach or failure (1) would result in the failure of any condition to HiSoft's and Merger Sub's obligation to consummate the merger and (2) cannot be cured by VanceInfo by February 10, 2013, or if curable, is not cured within forty-five days after receipt of written notice from HiSoft of such failure to be so true and correct or such breach or failure to perform and stating HiSoft's intention to terminate the merger agreement; provided, that this termination right is not available to HiSoft if it is then in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements under the merger agreement and such breach would result in any condition to VanceInfo's obligation to consummate the merger to not be satisfied;

•

(1) all of the closing conditions to the obligations of VanceInfo to consummate the merger (including those conditions that are conditions to all parties' obligations), other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied by actions taken at the closing or the merger, being satisfied, (2) HiSoft having confirmed by notice to VanceInfo that all conditions to its obligation to consummate the merger have been satisfied or that it will waive any unsatisfied conditions, and (3) VanceInfo fails to consummate the merger within three business days following the date the closing should have occurred pursuant to the merger agreement;

in the event the HiSoft Board fails to recommend the HiSoft shareholders to vote in favor of the HiSoft Share Consolidation, the HiSoft Capital Increase, the HiSoft Articles Amendments and the HiSoft Share Issuance; or

in the event the HiSoft Board changes its recommendation.

Effect of Termination

        If the merger agreement is terminated, it will become void and of no effect with no liability on the part of any of HiSoft, Merger Sub or VanceInfo (or of any of their representatives), except that certain provisions of the merger agreement (including the provision providing for a termination fee) will remain in full force and effect and no party will be released from any liability arising from fraud or any willful and material breach of the merger agreement prior to such termination.

Termination Fees

        If either HiSoft or VanceInfo terminates the merger agreement because the other party's shareholders fail to approve the transactions submitted for their approval at the VanceInfo EGM or HiSoft EGM, respectively, or any adjournment thereof, then such other party is required to pay the first party a termination fee of US$4 million within two business days after termination.

        In addition, in the event that a competing acquisition proposal for 35% or more of HiSoft's or VanceInfo's consolidated assets or voting power (1) has been publicly announced or otherwise communicated to senior management of such party or the board of directors of such party and (2) within 12 months after the date of termination of the merger agreement, such party enters into a definitive agreement with any person in connection with any competing acquisition proposal, and:

•

the other party terminates the merger agreement because the non-terminating party has breached any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements (other than a willful and material breach of the non-terminating party's "no solicitation" covenant or its obligation to hold an extraordinary general meeting to approve the transactions) and such breach (1) would give rise to a failure of the terminating party to be able to satisfy certain conditions to its obligation to consummate the merger and (2) cannot be cured by the non-terminating party by February 10, 2013 or, if capable of being cured, is not cured within 45 days following receipt by the non-terminating party of written notice of such breach; or

•

either party terminates the merger agreement if the merger does not close by February 10, 2013; or

•

either party terminates the merger agreement if the non-terminating party's shareholders fail to approve the transactions at the extraordinary general meeting convened for such purpose;

then HiSoft or VanceInfo, as the case may be, is required to pay the other party a termination fee of US$15 million within two business days after HiSoft or VanceInfo, as the case may be, consummates any acquisition proposal.

        Furthermore, if:

•

a party terminates the merger agreement because the non-terminating party's board of directors fails to recommend, or adversely modifies its recommendation, in favor of the transactions; or

•

a party terminates the merger agreement because the non-terminating party fails to consummate the merger within 3 business days after all of the conditions precedent to closing of the merger applicable to the non-terminating party have been satisfied, the terminating party confirms to the non-terminating party that the conditions precedent to closing of the merger applicable to the terminating party have been satisfied or waived and the non-terminating party fails to

121

consummate the merger within three business days following the date the closing should have occurred pursuant to the merger agreement; or

•

a party terminates the merger agreement because the non-terminating party willfully and materially breaches its "no solicitation" covenant or its obligation to hold an extraordinary general meeting to approve the transactions;

then HiSoft or VanceInfo, as the case may be, is required to pay to the terminating party a termination fee of US$30 million within two days after termination.

        The term "acquisition proposal" has the same meaning assigned to such term in "The Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger—No Solicitation" above, except that the reference to "10% or more" in the definition of "acquisition proposal" is a reference to "35% or more".

Remedies

        If the merger agreement is terminated under circumstances in which a termination fee is payable, payment of the termination fee (1) will be the sole and exclusive remedy and in full and complete satisfaction of any and all damages that will be suffered by reason of any termination of the merger agreement and (2) subject to the rights of each party to seek certain equitable remedies, will constitute liquidated damages with respect to any claim which one party would otherwise be entitled to assert against the other party or against the other party's assets, employees, equity holders (other than the shareholders of such other party that are parties to voting agreements described under "The Voting Agreements" beginning on page 124 pursuant to the terms of such agreements) or other related parties with respect to any such termination of the merger agreement under circumstances in which a termination fee is payable.

        Each of HiSoft, Merger Sub and VanceInfo are entitled, in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled at law or in equity, to compel specific performance of any specific provision of the merger agreement or to obtain injunctive relief to prevent breaches of any specific provision of the merger agreement. However, a party's pursuit of specific performance or injunctive relief at any time is not deemed an election of remedies or waiver of the right to pursue any other right or remedy to which such party may be entitled, including the right to pursue remedies for liabilities or damages incurred or suffered by such party in the case of a breach of the merger agreement.

Fees and Expenses

        Whether or not the merger is completed, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby will be paid by the party incurring such expenses except as otherwise provided in the merger agreement.

Amendment and Waiver

        The merger agreement may be amended by action taken by HiSoft, VanceInfo and Merger Sub at any time before or after approval of the merger by the earlier of the required shareholder votes of either HiSoft or VanceInfo but, after any such approval, no amendment will be made which requires the approval of such shareholders under applicable law without such approval.

        At any time prior to the effective time of the merger, each of HiSoft and Merger Sub, on the one hand, and VanceInfo, on the other hand, may (1) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other party, (2) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other party contained in the merger agreement or in any document, certificate or writing delivered pursuant thereto, or (3) waive compliance by the other party with any of the agreements or conditions contained in the merger agreement. The failure of HiSoft and Merger Sub,

122

on the one hand, or VanceInfo, on the other hand, to assert any of their or its rights under the merger agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such rights.

No Third Party Beneficiaries

        While the merger agreement is not intended to confer upon you or any person other than HiSoft, VanceInfo and Merger Sub any rights or remedies, it provides limited exceptions. HiSoft's and VanceInfo's directors and officers will continue to have indemnification and liability insurance coverage after the completion of the merger. Furthermore, each party will have the right, on behalf of its shareholders, to enforce rights granted under the merger agreement and to pursue any damages or other relief related to the merger agreement or any of the transactions contemplated in the merger agreement. However, this right is enforceable on behalf of a party's shareholders solely by such party in its sole and absolute discretion.

Governing Law

        The merger agreement is governed and will be construed, performed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, except that the following matters arising out of or relating to the merger agreement will be construed, performed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Cayman Islands:

•

the merger;

•

the vesting of the rights, property, choses in action, business, undertaking, goodwill, benefits, immunities and privileges, contracts, obligations, claims, debts and liabilities of the Merger Sub in VanceInfo;

•

the cancellation of VanceInfo ordinary shares in consideration of the issue of HiSoft common shares;

•

the fiduciary or other duties of the VanceInfo board of directors and the HiSoft board of directors; and

•

the internal corporate affairs of VanceInfo and HiSoft.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS OF HISOFT

        The consolidated interim financial data for HiSoft as of June 30, 2012 and for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012 included in this section have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and have been derived from HiSoft's unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements included in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Overview

        HiSoft is a leading China-based provider of IT and research and development services, primarily for companies in the U.S. and Japan, including 39 Fortune Global 500 companies. HiSoft was ranked third by IDC among the Top Ten China-based Offshore Software Development Service Providers in China by revenues in 2011. In addition to its strong market presence in the U.S. and Japan, HiSoft is leveraging its global capabilities to rapidly grow its business in China, which is benefiting from increased demand for China-based outsourced IT services from multinational and domestic corporations in China.

        HiSoft's two service lines consist of IT services and research and development services. HiSoft's range of IT services include application development, testing and maintenance services for custom applications, or ADM, as well as implementation and support services for packaged software, or CPS. CPS services comprise a portfolio of high value-added solutions.

        HiSoft's research and development services include software and hardware testing as well as software globalization services.

        HiSoft focuses primarily on clients in the technology and BFSI industries. These industries have historically represented a significant proportion of outsourcing spending and, HiSoft believes, will continue to represent the greatest market opportunity for HiSoft. In the six months ended June 30, 2012, technology clients accounted for 52.0% of its net revenues and BFSI clients accounted for 29.4% of its net revenues.

        HiSoft began its operations in 1996 and has expanded rapidly in recent years, driven by increases in its service delivery capabilities and acquisitions of complementary businesses. HiSoft's net revenues were $95.2 million and $137.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012. HiSoft had net income of $6.8 million and $12.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively.

        HiSoft's business is managed as a single operating segment. For the purpose of the following discussion regarding its financial performance for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, HiSoft's net revenues generated by its service offerings is also presented.

Factors Affecting Results of Operations

        HiSoft has benefited significantly from growth in the global outsourced technology services industry and, more specifically, the emergence of China as a major participant in this industry. Growth in the industry is driven by the needs of major corporations to maintain and upgrade the technology and services that enable their operations in a cost-effective manner. Software companies are also increasingly outsourcing work to service providers in order to streamline and reduce the cost of the software development process. China's outsourced technology services market is growing rapidly due to its large pool of skilled professionals, highly developed infrastructure, strong government support and incentives, the geographic and cultural proximity between China and other Asian countries, the desire of outsourcing clients to diversify their use of offshore IT outsourcing services to multiple delivery locations and the size and growth of China's domestic economy.

130

        Key macro-level factors affecting HiSoft's results of operations include:

•

Market demand.  HiSoft's net revenues are significantly affected by changes in demand for outsourced technology services by multinational corporations and software companies, especially demand for China-based outsourced technology service providers. For example, a decline in a client's technology budget may have an adverse effect on the amount and types of services they seek from HiSoft.

•

Economic growth rates in HiSoft's key client industries and locations.  HiSoft's net revenues are significantly affected by economic growth rates in the industries and countries in which its main clients operate, including the technology and the BFSI industries in Japan, the United States and other parts of the world where HiSoft's clients are based.

•

Competition.  Competition from China-based and non-China-based outsourced technology service providers may affect HiSoft's ability to gain new clients and maintain and increase business from existing clients and, as a result, can have an adverse effect on its results of operations and financial condition.

•

Wage rates and availability of highly skilled professionals.  HiSoft's cost of revenues and operating expenses, and therefore gross margins and operating margins, may be affected by changes in wage rates and availability of skilled professionals in countries where it operates, particularly in China where most of HiSoft's employees are based. As a result of the rapid economic growth in China and the increased competition for skilled employees in China, HiSoft has experienced a general increase in wages in China, both in more developed cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen and, to a lesser extent, in other cities such as Dalian, Wuxi, Xi'an and Chengdu. HiSoft believes wages in China will continue to increase in the future while wage inflation in other countries in which HiSoft operates will remain relatively stable. Furthermore, the shortage of highly skilled professionals, particularly in China, may negatively affect HiSoft's ability to recruit sufficiently capable and qualified professionals necessary to effectively serve its clients, which may ultimately have an adverse effect on its business and results of operations.

•

Government policies.  HiSoft's results of operations may be affected by government policies and regulations, such as the Chinese government's policies on preferential tax treatment as well as any policies or regulations affecting demand for offshore outsourced technology services in HiSoft's key client locations.

•

Relevant exchange rates.  Changes in exchange rates, especially relative changes in exchange rates against the Renminbi, in which most of HiSoft's costs are denominated, and the Japanese yen and U.S. dollar, in which a large percentage of HiSoft's revenues is denominated, may have a significant effect on HiSoft's gross margins and operating margins.

        HiSoft's results of operations in any given period are also directly affected by company-specific factors, including:

•

HiSoft's ability to obtain new clients and repeat business from existing clients. Revenues from individual clients typically grow over time as HiSoft seeks to increase the number and scope of services provided to each client and as clients increase the complexity and scope of the work outsourced to it. Therefore, HiSoft's ability to obtain new clients, as well as its ability to maintain and increase business from its existing clients, will have a significant effect on its results of operations and financial condition.

•

HiSoft's ability to expand its portfolio of service offerings.  HiSoft's ability to grow revenue from new and existing clients is impacted by the breadth of its service offerings. Services HiSoft recently began to offer, including following recent acquisitions, include business process outsourcing services, consulting service in cloud computing solutions and testing.

131

•

Impact of business acquisitions.  HiSoft has entered into several business acquisitions in recent years and plans to pursue selective business acquisitions in the future as a means of growing its business. HiSoft's ability to identify, acquire, effectively manage and integrate new businesses into HiSoft's existing operations can have a significant effect on its results of operations.

•

Billing rates.  HiSoft's billing rates are a key factor impacting its revenues and gross margins. Billing rates vary by service offering and location of service delivery, and aggregate billings per engagement are driven by a number of factors, including the mix of onshore versus offshore delivered services and the mix of experience levels of personnel on a particular project.

•

Proportion of services performed onshore versus offshore.  Services performed at a client site or onshore typically generate higher revenues but lower gross margins than services performed at HiSoft's offshore delivery centers in China due to a higher cost base for onshore services. As a result, HiSoft's gross margin fluctuates based on the relative proportion of work performed inside and outside China. The proportion of work performed at client sites, onshore in the client's home country or offshore in China varies depending on client needs and the maturity or stage of engagement with a client.

•

Employee utilization.  HiSoft makes hiring decisions and manage employee utilization based on HiSoft's assessment of its project pipeline and staffing requirements. Employee utilization is typically higher for longer-term engagements due to increasing predictability of client needs over the course of the engagement. HiSoft's ability to effectively manage employee utilization will affect its efficiency on individual projects and resource allocation, and will ultimately impact its gross margin and results of operations.

Net Revenues

        HiSoft's net revenues represent its total revenues from operations, less business taxes. The following table sets forth HiSoft's net revenues by type of service offering for the periods indicated:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2011				2012
	Net Revenues		% of Total Net Revenues		Net Revenues		% of Total Net Revenues
	(dollars in thousands, except for percentages)
IT services	$	52,321		55.0%	$	80,878		58.9%
CPS		12,104		12.7%		30,376		22.1%
ADM		40,217		42.3%		50,502		36.8%
Research and development services		42,858		45.0%		56,379		41.1%
Total net revenues	$	95,179		100.0%	$	137,257		100.0%

        Historically, IT services have contributed the substantial majority of HiSoft's net revenues. In the past three years, HiSoft's net revenues from IT services increased significantly in absolute terms as a result of the growth of its CPS services. The growth was largely due to a strong demand for HiSoft's portfolio of high value-added services, including banking, finance and SAP solution from customers in both China and the United States.

        HiSoft's net revenues from research and development services represented 45.0% and 41.1% of its total net revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively. This was primarily driven by the rise in the number of multi-national corporations outsourcing research and development work to technology services providers based in China. Demand for research and development services is also in general less adversely affected by economic downturns as such services are typically tied to clients' multi-year product development cycles, which are usually not subject to short-term adjustments.

132

Furthermore, in order to achieve greater cost-efficiency in adverse economic conditions, clients typically outsource additional research and development services to technology services providers and consolidate the number of outsourced service providers used, which contributed favorably to the growth of HiSoft's net revenues from research and development services in the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively.

        Prior to 2006, HiSoft generated most of its revenues from clients located in Japan. From 2007 to mid 2012, HiSoft successfully expanded its target geographies to service clients in the U.S., Europe, China and Asia South. The following table sets forth HiSoft's net revenues based on its clients' headquarters for the periods indicated:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2011				2012
	Net Revenues		% of Total Net Revenues		Net Revenues		% of Total Net Revenues
	(dollars in thousands, except for percentages)
U.S.	$	47,754		50.2%	$	63,249		46.1%
Japan		17,345		18.2%		27,160		19.8%
Greater China (including Hong Kong)		15,962		16.8%		32,205		23.5%
Europe		8,826		9.3%		9,384		6.8%
Asia South		5,292		5.5%		5,259		3.8%
Total net revenues	$	95,179		100.0%	$	137,257		100.0%

        HiSoft expects its net revenues from China domestic clients to continue to grow as a percentage of its total net revenues as it expands its client base in China.

        Many of HiSoft's clients are multinational corporations with local subsidiaries in jurisdictions outside of the jurisdiction of their headquarters, such as Japan and the U.S. The following table sets forth HiSoft's net revenues based on the location of its clients' contracting entities for the periods indicated:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2011				2012
	Net Revenues		% of Total Net Revenues		Net Revenues		% of Total Net Revenues
	(dollars in thousands, except for percentages)
Greater China (including Hong Kong)	$	37,719		39.6%	$	55,946		40.7%
U.S.		19,606		20.6%		30,642		22.3%
Japan		21,950		23.1%		29,050		21.2%
Asia South		13,424		14.1%		19,457		14.2%
Europe		2,480		2.6%		2,162		1.6%

Includes manufacturing, telecommunications and life sciences.

        HiSoft is primarily focused on clients in the technology and BFSI industries. In the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, HiSoft's growth in net revenue from both technology and BFSI industries was primarily driven by the increase in demand for outsourced technology services.

        HiSoft aims to continue to strengthen its expertise in the technology and BFSI industries to leverage its existing industry knowledge to serve more clients within these industries and to penetrate additional sub-segments within these industries.

        HiSoft typically enters into a master services agreement with its clients which provides a framework for services that is then supplemented by statements of work, which specify the particulars of individual engagements, including the services to be performed, pricing terms and performance criteria. HiSoft's selling cycle for concluding master services agreements with new clients frequently exceeds six months. HiSoft usually then starts providing a limited set of services to the client to demonstrate its capabilities, including, if required, gaining certification by that client as an approved outsourced services provider. HiSoft then gradually expands the scope and range of services provided to the client over a period of months or years. Based on HiSoft's experience, it often takes two to three years working with a client before HiSoft develops a significant revenue stream, which HiSoft defines as more than $1.0 million per year in net revenues, from that client. Increased revenue from existing clients has been and is expected to continue to be an important driver of HiSoft's revenue growth.

        Most of HiSoft's contracts are priced on a time-and-materials basis, with the remainder priced on a fixed-price basis. Net revenues from time-and-materials contracts accounted for 81.6% and 80.0% of HiSoft's total net revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively.

        HiSoft derives its net revenues from a combination of onshore and offshore delivery. HiSoft categorizes revenues from onshore work in the U.S. and Japan as onshore revenues. For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and, 2012, HiSoft's onshore revenues accounted for 16.6% and 20.1% of its net revenues, respectively.

Cost of Revenues, Gross Profit and Gross Margin

        The following table sets forth HiSoft's total net revenues, cost of revenues, gross profit and gross margin for the periods indicated:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2011					2012
	Total			% of Total Net Revenues		Total			% of Total Net Revenues
	(dollars in thousands, except for percentages)
Total net revenues	$	95,179			100.0%	$	137,257			100.0%
Cost of revenues		(63,100	)		(66.3)%		(88,743	)		(64.7)%
Gross profit and gross margin		32,079			33.7%		48,514			35.3%

Cost of Revenues

        The principal components of HiSoft's cost of revenues are salaries and other compensation expenses, including share-based compensation expenses, for employees directly responsible for the performance of client services. Salary and compensation expenses for senior management employees who are not directly responsible for the performance of client services, business development personnel and other personnel involved in support functions are included in operating expenses. Salaries and other compensation expenses of HiSoft's professionals are allocated to cost of revenues regardless of whether they are actually performing services during a given period.

        Wage levels for HiSoft's professionals in China are generally lower than those in client locations such as the U.S. and Japan. Moreover, wage levels vary across different regions of China, with wage levels generally being higher in more developed cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen. As a result, HiSoft's cost of revenues is significantly affected by the location from which it delivers services. HiSoft has begun to develop, and plans to continue developing, offshore delivery centers in cities with relatively lower wage levels, such as in Wuxi, Dalian and Xi'an, and has increased the proportion of its professionals in offshore delivery centers in cities with lower wage levels.

        Other expenses included in cost of revenues include travel expenses, facilities and depreciation and overhead cost related to the delivery of services, as well as costs of technical subcontractors, computer and data communications equipment maintenance costs and amortization of intangible assets acquired in business acquisitions.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

        Gross profit is equal to net revenues less cost of revenues. Gross margin is equal to gross profit as a percentage of net revenues. HiSoft's gross profit and gross margin are affected by factors which affect its net revenues, such as overall demand for outsourced technology services, and cost of revenues, such as wage levels. Changes in its gross profit and gross margin are also driven by factors such as, but are not limited to, HiSoft's ability to efficiently implement the delivery process improvements to optimize the mix of services delivered onshore versus offshore and maintain the appropriate staffing levels, changes in pricing terms and variation in the duration, type, size, timing and scope of its engagements.

        HiSoft's gross margin for both IT services and research and development services improved for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011 primarily due to the low margin for the six months ended June 30, 2011 caused by the earthquake that struck Japan in March 2011 and the subsequent tsunami. In addition, HiSoft's continued efforts to improve its service delivery processes through more stringent cost control measures designed to align its staffing levels with the expected needs of its client projects, thereby improving the efficiency of its operations.

135

Operating Expenses

        HiSoft's operating expenses principally consist of selling and marketing expenses and general and administrative expenses. The following sets forth HiSoft's general and administrative expenses and selling and marketing expenses for the periods indicated:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2011					2012
	Total			% of Total Net Revenues		Total			% of Total Net Revenues
	(dollars in thousands, except for percentages)
General and administrative expenses	$	(17,623	)		(18.5)%	$	(24,963	)		(18.2)%
Selling and marketing expenses		(7,362	)		(7.7)%		(10,737	)		(7.8)%
Change in fair value of contingent consideration		(652	)		(0.7)%		346			0.3%

General and Administrative Expenses

        General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and other compensation expenses of management, bad debt provision expense, utilities, legal and audit fees, ongoing information technology, telecommunications and other systems costs, and other administrative costs not related to the delivery of services. General and administrative expenses also include an allocation of HiSoft's share-based compensation charges based on the nature of work that certain employees were assigned to perform.

        HiSoft's general and administrative expenses have increased primarily as a result of its expanding operations and the hiring of a number of senior executive and management staff to support its growth. HiSoft expects its general and administrative expenses to continue to increase in absolute terms as its business expands but will generally remain steady or slightly decrease as a percentage of its net revenues.

Selling and Marketing Expenses

        Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions and other compensation expenses relating to sales and marketing personnel, travel, brand building, and other expenses relating to its marketing activities. Selling and marketing expenses have risen significantly in the past due to its increased business development and marketing activities, as well as its expansion into research and development services.

        HiSoft's selling and marketing expenses in the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, including amortization of intangible assets acquired in recent acquisitions, were $0.7 million and $1.6 million, respectively. The intangible assets primarily consist of the value of the acquired client base and contract backlog. HiSoft's selling and marketing expenses excluding amortization of intangible assets were $6.7 million and $9.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively.

        HiSoft anticipates its sales and marketing expenses will continue to increase as it continues to build sales and marketing teams in its target markets, primarily in China and Asia South.

Change in fair value of contingent consideration

        In connection with the acquisitions, including Logoscript International S.L., Shenzhen Longhaul Information Technology Ltd., and Glory, HiSoft agreed to pay certain performance-based cash consideration, which was measured and recorded at estimated fair value at the acquisition date and subsequently remeasured to fair value in each reporting period until settlement. As of June 30, 2012, the change in fair value of the contingent consideration for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was an

136

increase of $0.3 million compared to a decrease in fair value of contingent consideration of $0.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Other Income and Expenses

        Other income and expenses consists primarily of interest income and expenses and changes in the fair values of warrants and foreign currency forward contracts.

Acquisitions

        The financial results for HiSoft's acquired businesses are consolidated in its operating results for periods after the acquisition. Therefore, HiSoft's financial results in corresponding prior periods may not be directly comparable.

        HiSoft's acquisitions in the six months ended June 30, 2012 include:

•

Logoscript International S.L., or Logoscript, a Spain-based software localization and technical translation services provider and its subsidiaries based in Spain, Brazil and Portugal;

•

Shenzhen Longhaul Information Technology Ltd., or Longhaul, a China-based SAP consulting services company; and

•

Beijing GloryCube Technology Co., Ltd., or Glory, a China-based IT service firm that specialized in CRM system design and implementation in the financial industry in China.

        For more information, see note 2 to HiSoft's unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements included in this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

        HiSoft anticipates that selective acquisitions will increase its scale, geographic presence and service offerings, expand its capabilities, and continue to be a significant source of revenue growth. Acquisition-related challenges include quickly and effectively integrating the acquired business and services into HiSoft's existing business and service offerings and retaining acquired clients and employees. As a result, HiSoft may not realize the benefits of its acquisitions as soon as anticipated or at all. Also, these challenges become more difficult as HiSoft expands its business from primarily operating in China to operating on a global basis.

        HiSoft had goodwill of $37.3 million and $42.9 million as of December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2012, respectively. HiSoft had acquisition-related intangible assets of $15.2 million and $17.5 million as of December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2012, respectively. HiSoft has and will continue to incur amortization expenses as it amortizes acquired intangible assets with definite lives over their estimated useful lives.

        HiSoft does not amortize its goodwill but tests it periodically for impairment. Impairment to HiSoft's intangible assets and goodwill may adversely affect its results of operations. For additional information, see "Item 3. Key Information.—D. Risk Factors—Relating to Our Business—If HiSoft is not successful in integrating and managing HiSoft's past and future strategic acquisitions, HiSoft's business and results of operations may suffer and HiSoft may incur exceptional expenses or write-offs" in the HiSoft 2011 20-F which is incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

Income Taxes

        Hisoft's income tax expense has increased from $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was mainly due to the increase of effective tax rate for the comparative periods.

        HiSoft's effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012 was 11.0% and 15.0%, respectively. The change was primarily due to (i) the tax rate of Wuxi HiSoft Services Ltd.

137

increased from nil to 12.5% as its tax exemption period has elapsed starting from January 1, 2012, and (ii) the higher tax rates of certain newly acquired entities.

Results of Operations

        The following table sets forth a summary of HiSoft's consolidated results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012. This information should be read together with HiSoft's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this joint proxy statement/prospectus. The operating results in any period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future period.

Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2011 and the Six Months Ended June 30, 2012

Net Revenues

        Total net revenues increased by $42.1 million, or 44.2%, from $95.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $137.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012. HiSoft's two lines of services, IT services and research and development services, recorded year-on-year increases in net revenues of $28.6 million, or 54.6%, and $13.5 million, or 31.5%, respectively. Included in HiSoft's IT services are its CPS services, which comprise a portfolio of high value-added solutions. CPS services recorded revenue growth of 151.0% in the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the corresponding period in 2011 as a result of strong demand from customers in Greater China and the United States. Another component of HiSoft's IT services, ADM, also recorded revenue growth of 25.6% in the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Cost of Revenues

        Total cost of revenues increased by $25.6 million, or 40.6%, from $63.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $88.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to an increase in headcount, consistent with the growth of HiSoft's business operations.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

        As a result of the foregoing, gross profit increased by $16.4 million, or 51.2%, from $32.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $48.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012. Gross margin increased from 33.7% in the six months ended June 30, 2011 to 35.3% in the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase in HiSoft's gross margin was partly due to increased sales in higher value-added services of CPS services for the period ended 30 June 2012 as compared to the lower gross margin in the same corresponding period of 2011 mainly associated with the impact of the earthquake that struck Japan on March 2011 and the subsequent tsunami.

Operating Expenses

        HiSoft's total operating expenses increased by $9.7 million, or 37.9%, from $25.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $35.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012.

        General and administrative expenses.     HiSoft's general and administrative expenses increased by $7.3 million, or 41.7%, from $17.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $25.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012. An increase in salary and compensation expenses of $4.4 million from the six months ended June 30, 2011 to the six months ended June 30, 2012 was the largest contributor to the increase in the general and administrative expenses. In addition, the increase was partially due to an increase in share-based compensation expenses of $1.7 million.

139

        Selling and marketing expenses.     HiSoft's selling and marketing expenses increased by $3.4 million, or 45.8%, from $7.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $10.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012. This increase was primarily due to expenses resulted from strengthened sales teams.

        Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration.     The change in fair value of contingent consideration for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was an increase of $0.3 million compared to a decrease in fair value of contingent consideration of $0.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Operating Income and Operating Margin

        HiSoft's operating income increased by $6.7 million, or 104.3%, from $6.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $13.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012.

        HiSoft's operating margin increased from 6.8% in the six months ended June 30, 2011 to 9.6% in the six months ended June 30, 2012. This increase was primarily due to increased sales of higher margin value-added services.

Other Income

        Other income was $2.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $1.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011. The increase was primarily due to additional purchase of term deposits in the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Income Tax Expense

        HiSoft incurred an income tax expense of $2.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to an income tax expense of $0.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Net Income

        As a result of the foregoing, HiSoft's net income attributable to Hisoft Technology International Limited increased to $12.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012 from net income of $6.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Inflation

        According to the National Bureau of Statistics of China, the change of consumer price index in China was 5.4% in 2011. Although HiSoft has not been materially and adversely affected by inflation in the past, it can provide no assurance that it will not be affected in the future by higher rates of inflation in China. For example, certain operating costs and expenses, such as employee compensation and office operating expenses, may increase as a result of higher inflation. Additionally, because a substantial portion of the assets consists of cash and short-term investments, high inflation could significantly reduce the value and purchasing power of these assets. HiSoft is unable to hedge its exposures to higher inflation in China.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        As of December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2012, HiSoft had approximately $113.9 million and $90.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, respectively. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents from December 31, 2011 to June 30, 2012 was primarily due to net cash used in operating activities of approximately $2.0 million and net cash used in investing activities of approximately $19.3 million. HiSoft's cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash on hand and highly liquid investments. HiSoft believes that its cash and cash equivalents, anticipated cash flow from operations will be

140

sufficient to meet its anticipated cash needs for at least the next 12 months. The following table sets forth a summary of HiSoft cash flows for the periods indicated:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2011			2012
	(dollars in thousands)
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities	$	6,822		$	(2,020	)
Net cash used in investing activities		(5,164	)		(19,335	)
Net cash used in financing activities		(40,287	)		(1,810	)
Effect of foreign exchange rate changes on cash		1,939			(266	)
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents		(36,690	)		(23,431	)
Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period		169,893			113,856
Cash and cash equivalents at end of period		133,203			90,425

        HiSoft had $21.7 million and $36.0 million in term deposits as of December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2012, respectively. Total cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and term deposits as of December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2012 were $136.8 million and $127.8 million, respectively.

        Historically a majority of HiSoft's revenues have been earned by its PRC subsidiaries. However, PRC regulations restrict the ability of HiSoft's PRC subsidiaries to make dividends and other payments to their offshore parent company. PRC legal restrictions permit payments of dividends by HiSoft's PRC subsidiaries only out of their accumulated after-tax profits, if any, determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. Each of HiSoft's PRC subsidiaries is also required under PRC laws and regulations to set aside or contribute certain amount of its annual after-tax profits for various funds such as statutory general reserve fund, public welfare fund and enterprise expansion fund, which further affects the amount of after-tax profits available for dividend distribution. The total amount of HiSoft's restricted net assets was $117.6 million and $118.5 million as of December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2012. Any limitations on the ability of HiSoft's PRC subsidiaries to transfer funds to it could materially and adversely limit its ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to its business, pay dividends and otherwise fund and conduct business.

Operating Activities

        Net cash used in operating activities was $2.0 million for six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $6.8 million for corresponding period in 2011. The change in net cash provided by (used in) operating activities was primarily due to an increase in the number of fixed-price contracts entered into with customers in China and Singapore and a $6.8 million annual cash bonus paid to management and sales teams in January 2012.

        HiSoft's days sales outstanding were 93 days and 96 days for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively.

Investing Activities

        Net cash used in investing activities largely reflects (i) capital expenditures, which principally consists of purchases of property, plant and equipment made in connection with the expansion and upgrade of HiSoft's service delivery centers, (ii) HiSoft's business acquisitions and (iii) term deposits. Cash used in investing activities increased from $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $19.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. This was primarily due to the purchase of term deposits of $14.7 million. HiSoft expects its cash used in investing activities over the next several years to continue to be primarily driven by business acquisitions and purchases of property, plant and equipment.

141

Financing Activities

        Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $40.3 million, primarily consisting of $40.0 million in repayment of bank loan and payment of contingent consideration of $5.3 million. This was offset by the cash provided through the proceeds of $4.2 million received from issuance of common share under employee option plan. Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $1.8 million, primarily consisting of the payment of contingent consideration of $2.9 million. This was offset by the cash provided through the proceeds of $1.3 million received from issuance of common share under employee option plan.

Contingent Acquisition Payments

        As of June 30, 2012, in connection with HiSoft's recent acquisitions, HiSoft had agreed to make contingent payments of up to $22.3 million in cash, subject to the achievement of certain financial performance targets during various periods from July 1, 2012 to April 30, 2015.

Capital Expenditures

        HiSoft's capital expenditures are incurred primarily in connection with purchases of equipment, leasehold improvements and investment in equipment, technology and operating systems. HiSoft's capital expenditures were $2.3 million in the six months ended 2012, primarily related to purchasing new equipment for new employees and to replace existing equipment.

        In July 2012, the Group entered into a framework agreement with the Administrative Committee of the Wuxi State Hi-Tech Zone to purchase a campus facility of approximately 21,225 square meters in Wuxi city, Jiangsu province, China, for an estimated aggregate consideration of approximately $22 million. The parties will enter into a separate agreement containing detailed terms to implement the purchase.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

        Other than the transactions set forth under "Contractual Obligations" above, HiSoft does not have any outstanding off-balance sheet commitments or arrangements, including off-balance sheet guarantees or interest rate swap transactions. In HiSoft's ongoing business, it does not enter into transactions involving, or otherwise form relationships with, unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships that are established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS OF VANCEINFO

        The consolidated interim financial data for VanceInfo as of June 30, 2012 and for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012 included in this section have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and have been derived from VanceInfo's unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements included in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Overview

        VanceInfo is an IT service provider and one of the leading offshore software development companies in China. VanceInfo delivers a comprehensive range of IT services through its globally integrated network of onsite and offsite delivery locations, primarily in China, to enable its clients to focus on their core competencies and improve operating efficiencies.

VanceInfo's net income decreased from US$14.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to US$8.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Factors Affecting Results of Operations

        VanceInfo believes the most significant factors that affect its business and results of operations are:

•

the overall economic conditions in VanceInfo's principal geographic markets, which may affect market demand for offshore IT services;

•

the quality and portfolio of VanceInfo's service lines and industry expertise compared with those of its competitors;

•

the billing rates and utilization rates of VanceInfo's professionals, its compensation and benefit expenses and other operating costs and expenses;

•

the availability of a large talent pool in China and wage level of qualified professionals; and

•

the PRC government's investment in infrastructure construction and adoption of various incentives in the IT services industry.

VanceInfo's management evaluates its results of operations by examining financial and operating data in a variety of categories, including service lines, clients, and geographic markets. VanceInfo manages and markets its business according to its service lines and industry practices. VanceInfo's IT services include research and development outsourcing services, consulting and solutions services, application management services as well as other solutions and services. VanceInfo provides these services primarily to corporations headquartered in Greater China, the United States, Europe and Japan.

Net Revenues

        VanceInfo's net revenues are net of business tax and other sales tax. In recent years, VanceInfo has experienced rapid growth and significantly expanded its business. VanceInfo's net revenues grew from US$125.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to US$180.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

146

        Set forth below are breakdowns of VanceInfo's net revenues by service lines, clients, and geographic markets.

Net Revenues by Service Lines

        VanceInfo derives net revenues from the provision of research and development outsourcing services, consulting and solutions services, application management services and other solutions and services. Research and development outsourcing services consist of the research and development service line and the globalization and localization service line. Consulting and solutions services consist of consulting, business intelligence, enterprise resource planning, or ERP, implementation and industry-specific solutions. Application management services consist of application development and maintenance, and quality assurance and testing services. Other solutions and services consist of business process outsourcing and system integration services.

        Set forth below is VanceInfo's net revenue breakdown by service lines for the periods indicated:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2011			2012
	(in US$ thousands, except for percentages)
Research and Development Outsourcing Services	$	70,010	55.7%	$	89,915	49.7%
Consulting and Solutions Services		10,175	8.1%		21,441	11.9%
Application Management Services		41,281	32.9%		61,788	34.2%
Other Solutions & Services		4,189	3.3%		7,709	4.2%
Total net revenues	$	125,655	100.0%	$	180,853	100.0%

        Research and development services have accounted for a majority of VanceInfo's net revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2011, but decreased to slightly below 50% in the six months ended June 30, 2012. VanceInfo's net revenues from consulting and solutions services, application management services and other solutions and services increased in both its absolute number and as a percentage of its total net revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Net Revenues by Clients

        VanceInfo has achieved strong revenue growth by focusing on select, long-term client relationships that it refers to as strategic accounts. Currently, VanceInfo's strategic accounts include Expedia, Huawei, Microsoft, a European mobile handset manufacturer and TIBCO, and VanceInfo commenced its relationships with them in 2009, 2004, 1997, 2007 and 2005, respectively, and has steadily expanded its business and service offerings to these clients since then.Net revenues from these clients grew from US$68.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011, to US$96.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012. As illustrated in the table below, a significant proportion of VanceInfo's net revenues has been derived from a limited number of clients. In the six months ended June 30, 2011, each of Huawei and Microsoft accounted for 10% or more of VanceInfo's net revenues, and in the aggregate accounted for 37.0% of VanceInfo's net revenues. In the six months ended June 30, 2012, each of Huawei and Microsoft accounted for 10% or more of VanceInfo's net revenues, and in the aggregate accounted for 39.4% of VanceInfo's net revenues.

        VanceInfo initially developed relationships with certain divisions of Microsoft and Huawei, based on which VanceInfo has cross-sold its wide range of services to their other departments and regional offices. The increases in net revenues from Microsoft and Huawei were primarily attributable to cross-selling and enhanced relationships.

147

        In recent years, VanceInfo has devoted efforts to diversifying its client base by implementing various initiatives, including adding new strategic accounts, expanding its industry practices and increasing its service lines. The percentage of VanceInfo's net revenues derived from its top five clients decreased from 54.7% in the six months ended June 30, 2011 to 53.4% in the six months ended June 30, 2012. The percentage of VanceInfo's net revenues derived from its top ten clients decreased from 66.3% in the six months ended June 30, 2011 to 62.3% in the six months ended June 30, 2012.

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2011			2012
	(in US$ thousands, except for percentages)
Clients accounting for 10% or more of VanceInfo's net revenues	$	46,467	37.0%	$	71,334	39.4%
Top five clients		68,738	54.7%		96,497	53.4%
Top 10 clients	$	83,348	66.3%	$	112,592	62.3%

        The volume of work VanceInfo performs for specific clients is likely to vary from year to year, as VanceInfo typically is not their exclusive external IT service provider. Accordingly, a major client in one year may not contribute the same amount or percentage of its net revenues in a subsequent year.

Net Revenues by Geographic Markets

        VanceInfo records its net revenues based on the geographic regions in which the headquarters of its clients are located irrespective of the location of the specific client entity which it serves or the locations at which its services are delivered or the invoice is rendered. VanceInfo classifies its net revenues primarily into four geographic markets: Greater China, the United States, Europe and Japan. VanceInfo typically provides IT services to its clients to enhance and facilitate its operations in Greater China. As the table below illustrates, a significant portion of VanceInfo's net revenues is derived from clients headquartered in Greater China and the United States.

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2011			2012
	(in US$ thousands, except for percentages)
Greater China(1)	$	59,213	47.1%	$	85,849	47.5%

Cost of Revenues

Cost of Revenues

        Cost of revenues represented 63.1% and 68.0% of VanceInfo's net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively. VanceInfo's cost of revenues largely consists of compensation and benefit expenses of its professionals, including share-based compensation expenses, subcontracting costs, travel expenses, rental expenses, depreciation expenses relating to computers and equipment used by its professionals, telecommunications expenses and office expenses. VanceInfo also includes the government subsidies received from the local government authorities to encourage its recruitment and training of new college graduates, or graduate recruitment and training-related government subsidies, as a deduction to cost of revenues.

148

        The principal component of VanceInfo's cost of revenues is the compensation and benefit expenses of its professionals. A majority of VanceInfo's professionals are located in China, where labor costs in the IT services industry are relatively low. In the six months ended June 30, 2012, VanceInfo's compensation and benefit expenses in respect of its professionals, excluding share-based compensation expenses, were US$105.1 million, compared to US$66.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011. As wages in China continue to increase, VanceInfo may experience increases in its compensation and benefit expenses. To control its compensation cost, VanceInfo will continue to recruit entry level professionals from outside the major cities in China and increase in college hires where compensation tends to be lower. VanceInfo seeks to maintain compensation levels in accordance with prevailing trends in its industry in China.

        The utilization rates of VanceInfo's professionals also affect its gross profits. VanceInfo defines professionals' utilization rate as the proportion of total billed man-months or man-hours to total available man-months or man-hours, including professionals in training, during holidays and on vacation. VanceInfo manages utilization by monitoring project requirements and timetables. The number of professionals assigned to a project varies according to the size, complexity, duration and demands of the project. An unanticipated termination of a significant project could also cause VanceInfo to experience lower professional utilization rate resulting from a higher than expected number of unassigned professionals. In addition, VanceInfo does not fully utilize its professionals when they are enrolled in training programs.

        VanceInfo's subcontractor cost includes expenses it incurs for hiring subcontractors and freelancers from time to time. VanceInfo uses subcontractors and freelancers primarily to perform short-term assignments in certain specialty areas in connection with large projects. In the six months ended June 30, 2012, it incurred a subcontracting cost of US$10.2 million, compared to US$7.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011.

        VanceInfo incurs travel expenses primarily due to its professionals' traveling to perform onsite work for projects. In the six months ended June 30, 2012, VanceInfo's travel expenses were US$2.7 million, compared to US$2.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011. VanceInfo expects its travel expenses to increase as its overseas onshore services and enterprise solutions services provided to domestic clients grow. VanceInfo plans to explore opportunities to establish additional overseas delivery offices, expand onshore delivery teams and expand into second-tier cities in China according to market demand and client preferences, which will also increase its professionals' travel expenses overseas and in China.

        VanceInfo's graduate recruitment and training-related government subsidies as a deduction to cost of revenues were US$1.3 million and US$1.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. However, VanceInfo's continued eligibility for such government subsidies is subject to the discretion of the PRC local government. Moreover, the PRC central government or local government could determine at any time to immediately eliminate or reduce these government subsidies.

Operating Expenses

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

        Selling, general and administrative expenses represented 26.8% and 27.8% of VanceInfo's net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively. Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and benefit expenses, including share-based compensation expenses, relating to VanceInfo's personnel, rental expenses, depreciation and amortization expenses and overhead expenses, travel and advertising expenses, selling and marketing-related office expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses also include legal and other professional fees and miscellaneous administrative costs. VanceInfo expects its selling, general and administrative expenses to increase as it hires additional personnel, increases its sales efforts and

149

targets new markets, establishes new sales offices both in China and overseas, invests in research and development of solutions for its internal usage, upgrades its ERP system, enhances management training, initiates additional marketing programs to further build its brand, and incurs expenses to support its operations as a public company, including compliance-related costs.

Share-based Compensation Expenses

        VanceInfo adopted its 2005 Stock Plan in November 2005 and amended the plan in April and May 2006 to increase the total number of ordinary shares underlying the options issuable under the plan. VanceInfo adopted its 2007 Share Incentive Plan in July 2007 and amended the plan in August 2007. Under the 2005 Stock Plan, VanceInfo has reserved 4,267,500 ordinary shares for issuance upon exercise of awards granted thereunder. Under the 2007 Share Incentive Plan, VanceInfo has authorized the issuance of up to 1,100,000 ordinary shares plus an annual increase of 3% of then total outstanding shares on the first business day of each calendar year beginning in 2008, upon exercise of awards granted thereunder. VanceInfo granted options to purchase and restricted share units for up to 377,654 and 335,248 ordinary shares to its directors, officers and other employees in the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively. As of June 30, 2012, there were 1,126,482 ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding options under VanceInfo's 2005 Stock Plan, as amended, and 3,288,117 ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding options and restricted share units under VanceInfo's 2007 Share Incentive Plan, as amended.

        In October 2011, one of VanceInfo's wholly owned subsidiaries, VanceInfo Financial Solutions Limited, or VanceInfo Financial Solutions, adopted the VFS 2011 Share Incentive Plan, under which VanceInfo Financial Solutions has authorized the issuance of up to 1,000,000 ordinary shares of VanceInfo Financial Solutions upon exercise of awards granted thereunder. As of June 30, 2012, there were 1,000,000 ordinary shares of VanceInfo Financial Solutions issuable for outstanding restricted share units under the VFS 2011 Share Incentive Plan.

        VanceInfo recorded share-based compensation expenses for the fair value of options at the grant dates and recognized such share-based compensation expenses using a graded-vesting attribution method over the vesting period of the options.

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2011		2012
	(in US$ thousands)
Share-based compensation expenses:
Cost of revenues	$	296	$	481
Selling, general and administrative expenses		3,566		4,056
Total	$	3,862	$	4,537

        As of June 30, 2012, the unamortized compensation expenses in connection with VanceInfo's outstanding options and restricted share units were US$9.3 million.

Other Operating Income

        Other operating income primarily relates to subsidies received from the PRC local government for meeting the conditions required by various incentive policies, such as passing certain technological certification. VanceInfo's continued eligibility for such subsidies is subject to the discretion of the PRC local government. Moreover, the PRC central government or local government could determine at any time to immediately eliminate or reduce these government subsidies. Upon expiration of these government subsidies, VanceInfo will consider available options, in accordance with applicable laws,

150

that would enable VanceInfo to qualify for further government subsidies to the extent they are then available to it.

Tax

        VanceInfo's total income tax expenses have decreased from US$1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to US$1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease was due to the 43% decline of income before income tax even though the effective income tax rate increases.

        VanceInfo's effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012 was 10.7% and 15.9%, respectively. The change was primarily due to the tax rates of Shenzhen VanceInfo Creative Software Technology Limited and VanceInfo Data Service (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. increased from 0% to 12.5% and from 12% to 25%, respectively as their tax exemption/reduction periods had elapsed starting from January 1, 2012.

Accounts receivable

        As of June 30, 2012, VanceInfo's total billed and unbilled accounts receivable totaled US$151.6 million, net of allowances for doubtful accounts. Since VanceInfo generally does not require collateral or other security from its clients, it establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon estimates, historical experience and other factors surrounding the credit risk of specific clients. As of June 30, 2012, the provision made for doubtful accounts was US$3.0 million. VanceInfo's management periodically monitors outstanding receivables and collection status and assesses the adequacy of allowances for accounts where collection may be in doubt as frequency and amount of client defaults change due to its clients' financial condition or general economic conditions. VanceInfo is focusing on improving its cash collection procedures.

        VanceInfo's billed accounts receivable represents the amounts billed based on agreed-upon project milestones or billing terms that remain uncollected, and correspond to the period between billing and collection. As of June 30, 2012, its billed accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, totaled US$48.9 million.

        The following table sets forth the aging schedule of VanceInfo's billed accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, as of June 30, 2012:

	As of June 30, 2012
	Billed		% of Total Billed
	(in US$ thousands, except for percentages)
Within 90 days	$	42,490		87.0%
91-360 days		5,071		10.4%
> 360 days		1,295		2.6%
Total	$	48,856		100.0%

        As of June 30, 2012, VanceInfo's unbilled accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, totaled US$102.7 million. The unbilled accounts receivable represents the excess of recognized revenues over billings and correspond to the period between revenue recognition and invoicing. Such period primarily arises from VanceInfo's fixed-price contracts as it normally sends monthly billings for time-and-material contracts while fixed-price contracts are billed out according to the specific contract terms. Such contracts refer to milestones related to the completion of specific tasks such as planning documentation and testing reports. Generally the payment amount upon achieving each milestone is specified in the contracts and based on which VanceInfo bills the clients.

151

Meanwhile revenue is recognized under proportional performance method based on the hours incurred in achieving that milestone against VanceInfo's latest estimate of total hours to complete the contract.

        In addition, a majority of VanceInfo's non-PRC clients (based on the location of client's contract signing entities) generally signed the time-and-material contracts and a majority of VanceInfo's PRC clients (based on the location of client's contract signing entities) signed the fixed-price contracts with VanceInfo. Generally, VanceInfo does not offer different contractual payment terms between PRC and non-PRC clients. However, in practice, VanceInfo's PRC clients may request longer billing terms of 90 to 180 days comparing to the normal billing terms of 30 to 60 days offered to non-PRC clients or request VanceInfo to issue the billings after the stated billing period, which causes the actual payment schedule for fixed-price projects with PRC clients being longer than that of time-and-material projects with non-PRC clients.

        As of June 30, 2012, VanceInfo's unbilled accounts receivable (net of allowance for doubtful accounts) accounted for 67.8% of VanceInfo's total accounts receivable (net of allowance for doubtful accounts). In the six months ended June 30, 2012, VanceInfo's revenues from the fixed-price contracts increased by 33.3% compared with that in the six months ended June 30, 2011. Moreover, 76.4% of fixed-price revenues were derived from PRC clients in the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Net Revenues

The growth in the net revenues was primarily due to an increase in sales volumes, which was primarily driven by the growing demand in both the Greater China and overseas markets except for European market.

        VanceInfo's revenues from the fixed-price contracts increased by 33.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared with the same period in 2011. In addition, a majority of the non-PRC clients generally signed the time-and-material contracts and a majority of the PRC clients signed the fixed-price contracts with VanceInfo. The revenues from the PRC clients for the six months ended June 30, 2012 increased by 45.0% compared with the same period in 2011. 54.8% of its time-and-material revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was generated from the PRC clients and 76.4% of fixed-price revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was generated from the PRC clients.

        The breakdown of revenues by types of contracts is as follows:

	For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2011		2012

Fixed-price contracts		43,313		57,751
Others		603		2,722
Total	$	125,655	$	180,853

Cost of Revenues

        VanceInfo's cost of revenues was US$122.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, representing an increase of 55.0% from its cost of revenues of US$79.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The increase in its cost of revenues was primarily due to an increase in compensation and benefit expenses of the professionals as a result of increases in the number of and the average salary of the professionals and, to a lesser extent, an increase in subcontracting costs.

        VanceInfo's compensation and benefit expenses in respect of the professionals, excluding share-based compensation expenses, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 increased by 57.1% to US$105.1 million from US$66.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, primarily due to increases in its number of professionals and the average salary of the professionals. VanceInfo's cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and the six months ended June 30, 2011 also included US$0.5 million and US$0.3 million, respectively, of share-based compensation expenses arising from share options and restricted share units granted to its professionals.

        VanceInfo's subcontracting costs increased to US$10.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from US$7.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, primarily due to increases in business volumes and project scale.

        VanceInfo's travel expenses included in cost of revenues increased slightly to US$2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from US$2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The depreciation and amortization expenses included in cost of revenues increased slightly to US$1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from US$0.9 million for the same period in 2011.

154

        VanceInfo's graduate recruitment and training-related government subsidies as a deduction to cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30 2012 were US$1.3 million compared with US$1.5 million for the six months ended June 30 2011.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

        VanceInfo's gross profit was US$58.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, representing an increase of 25.1% from its gross profit of US$46.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Gross margin decreased to 32.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from 36.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The lower gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2012 reflected the wage inflation in excess of billing rate increase as compared to the same period in 2011, the negative impact from certain large customers as well as from the investment in the Banking, Financial Services and Insurance vertical and the Consulting and Solutions Services practice, which have been in the intensive build-up phase in the past several quarters.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

        VanceInfo's selling, general and administrative expenses were US$50.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, representing an increase of 49.3% from US$33.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to increase in compensation and benefit expenses, amortization and depreciation expenses, and rental and utilities expenses as compared to the same period of last year.

        Compensation and benefit expenses in respect of selling, general and administrative employees, excluding share-based compensation expenses, increased by 48.0% to US$21.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from US$14.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, primarily due to hiring more selling, general and administrative employees partly as a result of enhanced efforts in investment in consulting-oriented pre-sale activities and business development, and the increase in employees' average salary. VanceInfo's selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2012 also included US$4.1 million of share-based compensation expenses arising from share options and restricted share units granted to its selling, general and administrative employees compared to US$3.6 million of share-based compensation expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Rental and utilities expenses increased to US$7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from US$6.1 million for the same period in 2011, primarily due to its entering into new leases in major cities across China, Singapore and Australia. VanceInfo's amortization and depreciation expenses increased to US$5.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from US$3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 as a result of increase in its capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and its acquisitions in the first half of 2011 and 2012. VanceInfo's travel and advertising expenses also increased in the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011 primarily due to enhanced sales and marketing efforts.

Other Operating Income

        Other operating income was generated primarily from government subsidies other than graduate recruitment and training-related government subsidies. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, VanceInfo's government subsidies other than graduate recruitment and training-related government subsidies were US$0.5 million, a decrease from US$0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. For the first half of 2011 and 2012, VanceInfo was granted these government subsidies primarily due to incentives from local government authorities to, among other things, encourage the development of the industry in general and attract VanceInfo to open offices in local areas.

155

Income from Operations

        VanceInfo's income from operations was US$8.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, representing a decrease of 40.1% from US$14.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease was due to VanceInfo's higher selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011. Income from operations as a percentage of net revenues decreased to 4.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from 11.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Interest Income

        VanceInfo's interest income amounted to US$1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared with US$1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Foreign Exchange Loss

        For the six months ended June 30, 2012, VanceInfo incurred foreign exchange loss of US$0.1 million, as compared to foreign exchange loss of US$0.3 million incurred for the same period of 2011. Its foreign exchange loss for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was largely due to the fluctuation of the US dollars against RMB and the loss in the forward exchange contract of Japanese Yen.

Provision for Income Tax

        VanceInfo's provision for income tax decreased to US$1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from US$1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Net Income

        As a result of the foregoing, VanceInfo's net income was US$8.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, representing a decrease of 43.0% from US$14.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Net income as a percentage of the net revenues decreased to 4.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from 11.2% for the same period in 2011.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows and Working Capital

        VanceInfo's operations and growth have been financed by cash generated from operations and from the public offering proceeds. As of June 30, 2012, VanceInfo had US$76.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, compared to US$130.2 million as of June 30, 2011. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents from June 30, 2011 to June 30, 2012 was primarily due to payment for construction of VanceInfo new headquarters located in Beijing and various acquisitions.

        VanceInfo's working capital as of June 30, 2011 and 2012 was US$218.5 million and US$189.7 million, respectively, and had US$1.5 million and US$3.1 million in outstanding bank borrowings as of such dates.

Operating Activities

        Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 amounted to US$16.9 million. Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was primarily attributable to an increase of working capital requirement as a result of an increase in the scale of VanceInfo's business; partly offset by net income of US$8.0 million. VanceInfo's growing business generated substantial net cash inflow as its net revenues increased from US$125.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to US$180.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, however its cost of revenues and selling, general and administrative expenses, after deducting non-cash items and items that did not affect its operating cash flow, increased to US$151.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from US$104.8 million for the same period in 2011. The days of sales outstanding were 128 days for the six months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to 124 days for the same period in 2011.

        Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 amounted to US$3.4 million. Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was primarily attributable to net income of US$14.1 million; partly offset by an increase of working capital requirement as a result of an increase in the scale of VanceInfo's business. VanceInfo's growing business generated substantial net cash inflow as its net revenues increased from US$96.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 to US$125.7 million for the same period in 2011, while cost of revenues and operating expenses, after deducting non-cash items and items that did not affect the operating cash flow, increased to US$104.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from US$75.7 million for the same period in 2010. The days of sales outstanding were 124 days for the six months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to 108 days for the same period in 2010.

Investing Activities

        Net cash used in investing activities was US$2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, primarily attributable to (i) US$8.4 million paid for construction in progress of VanceInfo's new headquarters located in Beijing, (ii) US$4.4 million for purchase of property and equipment, (iii) an increase of a US$1.6 million in restricted cash attributable to an increase in bank deposits pledged for short-term bank borrowings, and (iv) US$0.7 million of consideration paid for business acquisitions; partly offset by US$7.3 million in proceeds from maturity of investment and US$5.0 million in cash received upon maturity of term deposit. Net cash used in purchase of property and equipment was primarily due to purchase of fixed assets and improvement of leased premises to satisfy the need from an increasing number of its professionals for the six months ended June 30, 2012. Net cash paid for business acquisitions was primarily for the acquisitions of Beijing Sunwin Technology Co., Ltd.and a professional team from Fusion System Limited.

157

        Net cash used in investing activities was US$15.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, primarily attributable to (i) US$9.1 million of consideration paid for business acquisitions, (ii) US$11.3 million for purchase of investment-held-to-maturity securities, (iii) US$5.0 million for purchase of term deposit, and (iv) US$3.6 million for purchase of property and equipment; partly offset by US$8.3 million in proceeds from maturity of investments and US$5.0 million in cash received upon maturity of term deposit. Net cash used in purchase of property and equipment was primarily due to purchase of fixed assets and improvement of leased premises to satisfy the need from an increasing number of the professionals for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Net cash paid for business acquisitions was primarily for the acquisitions of Beijing Viatt Information Technology Co., Ltd., Lifewood Technology Limited, Lifewood Data Technology Limited, Lifewood Data Technology (Shenzhen) Limited and Lifewood Data Technology (Dongguan) Limited.

Financing Activities

        Net cash provided by financing activities was US$0.05 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to net cash used in financing activities of US$19.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was primarily due to US$1.6 million of proceeds from short-term borrowings and US$1.5 million of proceeds from exercise of options; partly offset by US$3.0 million of consideration paid for business acquisitions.

        Net cash used in financing activities was US$19.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of US$3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was primarily due to US$21.0 million used for repurchase of ordinary shares, US$1.5 million for repayment of short-term bank loan, partly offset by US$2.8 million of proceeds from exercise of options.

Capital Expenditures

        VanceInfo's capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012 were US$3.6 million and US$12.9 million, respectively. The capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2012 include US$8.4 million payment in construction of its new headquarters located in Beijing, purchase of computers and improvement of leased premises. VanceInfo expects the capital expenditures excluding the new headquarters construction, to increase in the future as expanding the business to implement its growth strategy.

        VanceInfo believes that the current cash and cash equivalents and anticipated cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet the anticipated cash needs, including the cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures, for at least the next 12 months. VanceInfo may, however, require additional cash due to changing business conditions or other future developments, including any investments or acquisitions it may decide to pursue. If the existing cash is insufficient to meet its requirements, VanceInfo plans to borrow from lending institutions under existing lines of credit in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice. The incurrence of debt would divert cash for working capital and capital expenditures to service debt obligations and could result in operating and financial covenants that restrict the operations and ability to pay dividends to its shareholders. If VanceInfo is unable to obtain additional equity or debt financing as required, the business operations and prospects may suffer.

        VanceInfo is a holding company and may rely substantially on dividends from the subsidiaries in China for cash requirements, including any debt it may incur. Current PRC regulations permit VanceInfo's subsidiaries to pay dividends to it only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards and regulations. In addition, each of its subsidiaries in China is required to set aside a certain amount of its after-tax profits each year, if any, to fund certain

158

statutory reserves. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. Furthermore, if VanceInfo's subsidiaries in China incur debt on their own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends or make other payments to it. These regulations have not had a material adverse impact on its ability to meet cash obligations and VanceInfo does not expect them to have a material adverse impact in the future.

        The PRC government imposes controls on the convertibility of RMB into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of China. VanceInfo receives a substantial portion of the revenues in RMB. Under the current structure, its income will be substantially derived from dividend payments from its PRC subsidiaries. Shortages in the availability of foreign currency may restrict the ability of the PRC subsidiaries to remit sufficient foreign currency to pay dividends or other payments to VanceInfo, or otherwise satisfy their foreign currency dominated obligations. Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and expenditures from trade-related transactions, can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from SAFE by complying with certain procedural requirements. However, for most capital account items, approval from appropriate government authorities is required where RMB is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of China to pay capital expenses such as the repayment of bank loans denominated in foreign currencies. The PRC government may also at its discretion restrict access in the future to foreign currencies for current account transactions. These controls have not had a material adverse impact on VanceInfo's ability to meet the cash obligations and VanceInfo does not expect them to have a material adverse impact in the future.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

        VanceInfo has not entered into any financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. In addition, VanceInfo has not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to its own shares and classified as shareholder's equity, or that are not reflected in its consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, VanceInfo does not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. Moreover, VanceInfo does not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to it or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with it.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

        VanceInfo's exposure to interest rate risk primarily relates to interest income generated by excess cash invested in money market securities or demand deposits with original maturities of three months or less. Interest earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. A 1% decrease in each applicable interest rate would deduct US$0.01 million from VanceInfo's interest income for the six months ended on June 30, 2012. VanceInfo has not used derivative financial instruments to manage its interest rate risk exposure. Most of its borrowings bear fixed interest rates.

        VanceInfo has not been exposed to material risks due to changes in market interest rates. However, its future interest expense may increase and interest income may fall due to changes in market interest rates.

Foreign Exchange Risk

        A majority of VanceInfo's revenues and expenses are denominated in Renminbi, while a significant portion of its revenues and expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars. The value of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things,

159

changes in China's political and economic conditions. The conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies, including U.S. dollars, has been based on rates set by the People's Bank of China. On July 21, 2005, the PRC government changed its decade-old policy of pegging the value of the Renminbi to the U.S. dollar. Under the new policy, the Renminbi was permitted to fluctuate within a narrow and managed band against a basket of certain foreign currencies. This change in policy caused the Renminbi to appreciate approximately 21.5% against the U.S. dollar over the following three years. For almost two years after reaching a high against the U.S. dollar in July 2008, however, the Renminbi has traded within a narrow band against the U.S. dollar. In June 2010, the PRC government announced its plan to increase the flexibility of Renminbi exchange rate. Since that time, the Renminbi has gradually appreciated against the U.S. dollar. There remains significant international pressure on the PRC government to adopt a more flexible currency policy, which could result in greater fluctuation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar.

        The results of VanceInfo's operations could be adversely affected by appreciation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar. VanceInfo's exchange rate risk primarily arises from its foreign currency revenues, receivables, costs and expenses, payables and other foreign currency assets and liabilities. To the extent that VanceInfo needs to convert U.S. dollars into Renminbi for its operations, appreciation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar would have an adverse effect on the Renminbi amount it receives from the conversion. As of June 30, 2012, VanceInfo had a Renminbi denominated cash balance of RMB227.5 million and a U.S. dollar denominated cash balance of US$36.2 million. Assuming VanceInfo had converted the U.S. dollar denominated cash balance of US$36.2 million as of June 30, 2012 into Renminbi at the exchange rate of US$1.00 for RMB6.353 as of June 30, 2012, this cash balance would have been RMB457.7 million. Assuming a further 1% appreciation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar, this cash balance would have decreased to RMB455.4 million as of June 30, 2012. Conversely, if VanceInfo decides to convert its Renminbi into U.S. dollars for the purpose of making payments for dividends on its ordinary shares or ADSs or for other business purposes, appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the Renminbi would have a negative effect on the U.S. dollar amount available to it. VanceInfo also receives a portion of its revenues in Hong Kong Dollar, Japanese Yen and Euro. Any significant depreciation of Hong Kong Dollar, Japanese Yen or Euro against the Renminbi or U.S. dollar would adversely affect its revenues in Renminbi or U.S. dollar terms, respectively. Furthermore, the value of VanceInfo's shares may be affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and RMB because the value of its business is effectively denominated in RMB, while its shares are traded in U.S. dollars. Depreciation of the value of the U.S. dollar will also reduce the value of the cash VanceInfo holds in U.S. dollars, which it may use for purposes of future acquisitions or other business expansion. VanceInfo has not used any forward contracts or currency borrowings to hedge its exposure to foreign currency exchange risk, except for a forward exchange contract to purchase US$5.0 million for JPY448.75 million due in October 2010, a forward exchange contract to purchase US$5.0 million for JPY432.5 million due in July 2011 and a forward exchange contract to purchase US$5.0 million for JPY403.35 million to be due in July 2012. While the use of such foreign currency forward contract provides it with protection from certain fluctuations in foreign currency exchange, VanceInfo potentially forgoes the benefits that might result from favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange. In addition, any default by the counterparties to these transactions could adversely affect VanceInfo's financial condition and results of operations.

Inflation

        Inflation in China has not materially impacted VanceInfo's results of operations in recent years. However, China has recently experienced a significant increase in inflation levels, which may materially impact VanceInfo's results of operations. According to the National Bureau of Statistics of China, the consumer price index in China increased by 5.4% in 2011 and increased by 3.3% in the six months ended June 30, 2012.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

        The merger is a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting whereby HiSoft will acquire VanceInfo in an all-stock, two-step transaction which results in a merger of equals in which HiSoft is considered the acquirer for accounting purposes. Immediately prior to the merger, HiSoft will complete a share consolidation which results in a 13.9482-to-1 share consolidation and an adjustment to the ADS to common share ratio of 19-to-1.

        The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations (the "Pro Forma Statements of Operations") for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and the year ended December 31, 2011 combine the historical consolidated statements of operations of HiSoft and VanceInfo, giving effect to the merger as if it had been completed on January 1, 2011. The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet (the "Pro Forma Balance Sheet") as of June 30, 2012 combines the historical consolidated balance sheets of HiSoft and VanceInfo, giving effect to the merger as if it had been completed on June 30, 2012. The historical condensed consolidated financial information has been adjusted in the pro forma financial statements to give effect to pro forma events that are (1) directly attributable to the merger, (2) factually supportable and (3) with respect to the statement of operations included in the Statements, expected to have a continuing effect on the combined results of HiSoft and VanceInfo.

        The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements (the "Statements") and related notes were prepared using the acquisition method of accounting with HiSoft considered the acquirer of VanceInfo. Accordingly, the purchase consideration to be paid by HiSoft in the merger will be allocated to VanceInfo's assets and liabilities based on upon their estimated fair values as of the date of completion of the merger. In the Statements and related notes, the purchase consideration has been preliminarily allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of VanceInfo based upon their estimated fair values as of June 30, 2012. The unaudited condensed combined pro forma balance sheet included in the Statements does not allocate the consideration to be paid by HiSoft in the merger to VanceInfo's individual assets and liabilities based upon their estimated fair values as of the date of completion of the merger, because such an allocation depends upon certain valuations and other studies that have not progressed to a stage where there is sufficient information to make meaningful estimations and such a determination of fair values cannot be made prior to the completion of the merger. Accordingly, the pro forma adjustments are preliminary, subject to further adjustments as additional information becomes available and as additional analyses are performed, and have been made available solely for the purpose of providing the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information set forth below.

        The parties expect that a completed purchase price allocation would likely result in recognizing intangible assets in addition to those reflected in the historical consolidated balance sheets of VanceInfo, the amortization of which would result in expense in future periods after the consummation of the merger. The parties also expect that a completed purchase price allocation would likely increase the carrying value of certain recorded assets and liabilities of VanceInfo from their historical book value to their fair value, which would reduce net income in periods following the merger from those reflected in the historical financial statements of VanceInfo. In addition to the potential adjustments discussed herein, the parties believe there may be certain minor differences in the accounting policies applied by HiSoft and VanceInfo and they are in the process of identifying the potential differences. The Statements contained herein make no adjustments to reflect the effect of any such differences in accounting policies. The historical net income per common share and historical weighted average common shares outstanding for HiSoft and VanceInfo have not been adjusted to reflect the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment. The pro forma net income per share and pro forma weighted average common shares outstanding have been adjusted to reflect the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment, and assumes that the HiSoft Share Consolidation and HiSoft ADS Adjustment were completed as of January 1, 2011.

161

        The parties expect to incur significant costs and achieve significant revenue and other synergies in connection with integrating the operations of HiSoft and VanceInfo. The Statements contained herein do not reflect the costs of any integration activities or benefits that may result from realization of future cost savings from operating efficiencies, or any revenue, tax, or other synergies expected to result from the merger. Additionally, while the parties have estimated certain merger-related transaction costs, which are reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information set forth below, this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect adjusting entries to record certain potential additional expenses (e.g., share based compensation) as a result of the merger as additional time and effort will be required to more accurately estimate their impact and these amounts will materially change through the effective time of the merger.

        The Statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the historical audited consolidated financial information and accompanying notes of HiSoft and VanceInfo, which have been incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus, as well as the historical unaudited condensed interim financial information and accompanying notes of HiSoft and VanceInfo, which are included in this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

        The Statements and related notes are being provided for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to represent what the actual consolidated results of operations or the consolidated balance sheet of the combined company would have been had the merger occurred on the dates assumed, nor are they necessarily indicative of the combined company's future consolidated results of operations or consolidated balance sheet. The Statements are based upon currently available information and estimates and assumptions that HiSoft's management and VanceInfo's management believe are reasonable as of the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus. Any of the factors underlying these estimates and assumptions may change or prove to be materially different, and the estimates and assumptions may not be representative of facts existing at the closing date of the merger. It may be necessary to further classify VanceInfo's financial statements to conform to those classifications that are determined by the combined company to be most appropriate.

        The accompanying notes are an integral part of these Statements.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements
(in US$ thousands, except per share data)

Note 1. Basis of Pro Forma Presentation

        HiSoft, VanceInfo, Chemistry Merger Sub Inc., an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of HiSoft and Chemistry Merger Sub II Inc., an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of HiSoft, entered into the agreement and plan of merger, dated as of August 10, 2012, as amended by the amendment dated as of August 31, 2012. The agreement and plan of merger provides for the merger of Chemistry Merger Sub Inc, with and into VanceInfo, with VanceInfo surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of HiSoft and immediately thereafter, VanceInfo to be merged with and into Chemistry Merger Sub II Inc., with Chemistry Merger Sub II Inc. as the surviving entity and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of HiSoft. The Statements and related notes present the pro forma consolidated financial position and results of operations of the combined company to be formed pursuant to the merger based on the historical financial statements of HiSoft and VanceInfo (after giving effect to the merger and adjustments described in these notes, subject to the assumptions and limitations described herein), and are intended to reflect the impact of the merger on HiSoft.

        The historical financial information of HiSoft and VanceInfo as of and for six months ended June 30, 2012 was derived from the historical unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements respectively. The historical financial information of HiSoft and VanceInfo for the year ended December 31, 2011 was derived from the audited historical consolidated financial statements of HiSoft and VanceInfo respectively. Therefore, these Statements should be read in conjunction with such financial statements. HiSoft's audited historical consolidated financial statements for the three years ended December 31, 2011 and as of December 31, 2010 and 2011 are contained in HiSoft's 2011 20-F, which is incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus. HiSoft's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2012 are included in this joint proxy statement/prospectus. VanceInfo's audited historical consolidated financial statements for the three years ended December 31, 2011 and as of December 31, 2010 and 2011 are contained in VanceInfo's 2011 20-F, which is incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus. VanceInfo's unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements as of and for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2012 are included in this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

        The merger is reflected in the Statements using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations with HiSoft as the accounting acquirer. The Pro Forma Statement of Operations reflects the merger as if it had been completed on January 1, 2011, and the Pro Forma Balance Sheet reflects the merger as if it had been completed on June 30, 2012. The Statements and these notes include pro forma adjustments based on preliminary valuations of assets and liabilities of VanceInfo. These adjustments are preliminary and will be revised at the effective time of the merger as additional information becomes available and as additional valuation work is performed. The final purchase price allocations will be based on estimated fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed as of the closing of the merger. For the purpose of measuring the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in determining the final purchase price allocations, HiSoft will apply the accounting guidance under U.S. GAAP for fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. The fair value measurements will utilize estimates based on key assumptions in connection with the merger, including historical and current market data.

166

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements
(in US$ thousands, except per share data) (Continued)

Note 1. Basis of Pro Forma Presentation (Continued)

The final purchase price allocation will be determined after the completion of the merger, and the final allocations may differ materially from those presented in the Statements and these notes.

        The Statements are presented for illustrative purposes only and do not reflect the costs of any integration activities or benefits that may result from realization of future cost savings from operating efficiencies, or any revenue, tax, or other synergies expected to result from the merger.

        The calculation of pro forma net income per common share and pro forma weighted average common shares outstanding data included in the Statements is based on the assumption that the HiSoft Share Consolidation (common share consolidation of 13.9482-to-1) and the HiSoft ADS Adjustment (each HiSoft ADS will represent 1 common share of HiSoft) were completed as of January 1, 2011.

Note 2. Preliminary Purchase Price Allocations

        The Pro Forma Balance Sheet has been adjusted to reflect the preliminary allocation of the purchase price to identifiable net assets acquired and the excess purchase price to goodwill. Based on the assumptions described below, the purchase price allocation included within these Statements is based upon a total dollar value of the merger consideration of approximately US$329,694.

        The purchase price is derived from the estimated number of HiSoft shares to be issued of approximately 42,457 (after giving effect to the HiSoft Share Consolidation), based on the outstanding VanceInfo shares and VanceInfo ADSs and vested VanceInfo restricted share units on August 1, 2012, the 1-for-1 exchange ratios and a HiSoft ADS price of US$10.26 per ADS (which was the closing price on September 27, 2012, the latest practicable trading day prior to the filing of this joint proxy statement/prospectus) which implies a value of approximately US$0.54 per HiSoft share immediately prior to completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation and approximately US$7.53 per HiSoft share immediately after completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation. Based on these assumptions, the total dollar value of the merger consideration to be delivered to all VanceInfo shareholders and ADS holders in the merger would be approximately US$319,783, compared to approximately US$356,249 using the closing price of US$11.43 per HiSoft ADS on the date of announcement of the merger agreement (which would represent an implied value of approximately US$0.6016 per HiSoft share immediately prior to completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation and approximately US$8.39 per HiSoft share following completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation), and compared to approximately US$370,274 using the closing price of US$11.88 per HiSoft ADS on the date one day prior to announcement of the merger agreement (which would represent an implied value of approximately US$0.6253 per HiSoft share immediately prior to completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation and approximately US$8.72 per HiSoft share following completion of the HiSoft Share Consolidation). Pursuant to the merger agreement, VanceInfo restricted share units will be exchanged for a number of restricted share units of HiSoft (which will be subject to the same terms and conditions as applied to the VanceInfo restricted share units immediately prior to the closing of the merger) based on the share exchange ratio in the merger. The actual number of newly issued HiSoft shares to be issued in the merger will be based on the actual number of VanceInfo shares issued and outstanding when the merger closes.

        The purchase price also includes the estimated fair value of the vested portion of HiSoft stock options to be issued as of the closing of the merger in exchange for corresponding securities of VanceInfo. Pursuant to the merger agreement, VanceInfo stock options will be exchanged for stock options of HiSoft (which will be subject to the same terms and conditions as applied to the VanceInfo

167

(in US$ thousands, except per share data) (Continued)

Note 2. Preliminary Purchase Price Allocations (Continued)

options immediately prior to the closing of the merger), and the number of HiSoft shares issuable upon exercise and the applicable exercise price per share will be adjusted to reflect the share exchange ratio in the merger. Vested stock options issued by HiSoft in exchange for vested stock options held by employees and directors of VanceInfo are considered part of the purchase price. Accordingly, the total dollar value of the merger consideration of approximately US$329,694 million (based on the assumptions above) includes a preliminary estimate of the fair value of vested VanceInfo stock options of approximately US$9,911.

        The 1-for-1 ADS exchange ratio is fixed whereas the value per share and per ADS merger consideration will fluctuate based on the HiSoft ADS trading price which could result in material differences in the purchase consideration, purchase price and purchase price allocation. The estimate of the total dollar value of consideration contained herein does not purport to represent the actual value of the total purchase consideration that will be received by VanceInfo's shareholders and ADS holders when the merger is completed. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the fair value of equity securities issued as part of the merger consideration will be measured on the closing date of the merger at the then-current market price. Based on a 5% share increase or decrease in the HiSoft ADS trading price, the total dollar value of the merger consideration as of September 27, 2012 (and the corresponding amount of goodwill) will increase or decrease, respectively, by approximately US$15,990.

        The following is a preliminary estimate of the total dollar value of the consideration based on approximately 42,457 common shares of HiSoft to be issued by HiSoft in connection with the merger (after giving effect to the HiSoft Share Consolidation), including HiSoft shares to be issued in exchange for vested VanceInfo restricted share units (based on outstanding VanceInfo shares, ADSs and vested restricted share units as of August 1, 2012):

Closing price per HiSoft ADS as of September 27, 2012	$	10.26
Implied price per share based on 1 ADS to 19 HiSoft shares	$	0.54
Implied price per share after the HiSoft Share Consolidation	$	7.53
Stock consideration (consists of approximately $59 par value based on US$0.00139482 par value per share after giving effect to HiSoft Share Consolidation and $319,724 additional paid in capital for the stock consideration)	$	319,783
Estimated fair value of vested VanceInfo stock options (See Note 3h)	$	9,911
Total consideration	$	329,694

(in US$ thousands, except per share data) (Continued)

Note 2. Preliminary Purchase Price Allocations (Continued)

        The table below presents a preliminary allocation of the estimated total consideration to VanceInfo's tangible and intangible assets and liabilities based on management's preliminary estimate of their respective fair values as of June 30, 2012:

	Total
Current assets	$	253,442
Intangible assets		53,760
Goodwill		40,176
Other non-current assets		64,362
Total assets		411,740
Current liabilities		(63,723	)
Other non-current liabilities		(18,323	)
Total liabilities		(82,046	)
Total consideration allocated	$	329,694

        The above pro forma adjustments to VanceInfo's identifiable intangible assets reflect a preliminary estimate of the fair value of such intangible assets as of June 30, 2012. These intangible assets include the VanceInfo® trade name, certain other trade names, software technologies, customer relationships, contract backlog, non-compete agreements and other items.

        Upon completion of the fair value assessment after the merger, HiSoft anticipates that the ultimate purchase price allocation will differ from the preliminary assessment outlined above, and could differ materially. Any changes to the initial estimates of the fair value of the Vance Info assets and liabilities will be recorded as adjustments to those assets and liabilities and residual amounts will be allocated to goodwill.

Note 3. Pro Forma Adjustments

        The final purchase price allocation may result in different allocations for tangible and intangible assets than presented in the Statements and these notes, and those differences may be material.

a.

Note 3. Pro Forma Adjustments (Continued)

Adjustments to operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2011:

To adjust amortization expense for newly identified intangible assets	$	3,225
To adjust depreciation expense for the estimated fair value of fixed assets at the time of merger		(1,083	)
To reclassify change in fair value of contingent consideration payable for business acquisition		(920	)
	$	1,222

b.

reflects the adjustment to record VanceInfo's change in fair value of contingent consideration payable for business acquisition to operating expenses to conform to HiSoft's presentation.



c.

reflects the adjustment to record as liabilities the estimated transaction costs of approximately US$10,200 to be incurred by the combined company. Included in the pro forma adjustment are the combined company's estimated investment banking, attorney and independent accountant fees, depositary bank termination fees and other transaction-related costs.



d.

reflects an adjustment of approximately US$53,760 based on the preliminary estimate of the fair value of VanceInfo's identifiable intangible assets, which include the VanceInfo® trade name, certain other trade names, software technologies, customer relationships, contract backlog, non-compete agreements and other items. The estimated useful lives of such intangible assets range from one to eight years.



e.

reflects the adjustments of the estimated fair value of VanceInfo's property, plant and equipment and land use right at the time of merger.



f.

residual goodwill created from the merger (See Note 1).



g.

reflects the issuance of one HiSoft share for each outstanding VanceInfo share. Based on approximately 42.457 million common shares of HiSoft to be issued by HiSoft in connection with the merger (after giving effect to the HiSoft Share Consolidation), including HiSoft shares to be issued in exchange for vested VanceInfo restricted share units (based on outstanding VanceInfo shares, ADSs and vested restricted share units as of August 1, 2012):

Closing price per HiSoft ADS as of September 27, 2012	$	10.26
Implied price per share based on 1 ADS to 19 HiSoft shares	$	0.54
Implied price per share after the HiSoft Share Consolidation	$	7.53
Stock consideration	$	319,783
Approximate value attributed to par at US$0.00139482 per share after giving effect to HiSoft Share Consolidation	$	59
Balance to additional paid-in capital in excess of par value	$	319,724

h.

reflects the fair value of vested VanceInfo stock options held by VanceInfo's employees and directors. The preliminary estimate of the fair value of vested VanceInfo stock options of approximately US$9,911 to be exchanged for HiSoft stock options was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with market assumptions. Option pricing models require the use of highly subjective assumptions including expected stock price and volatility that,

170

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements
(in US$ thousands, except per share data) (Continued)

Note 3. Pro Forma Adjustments (Continued)

when changed, can materially affect fair value estimates. The more significant assumptions used in estimating the fair value include volatility of 65%—69%, the share price as of September 20, 2012 and an expected life of 0.28—3.61 years based on the age of the original award.

i.

reflects the adjustment to record the deferred tax liability for the incremental preliminary estimate of fair value adjustments of the VanceInfo intangible and fixed assets included as pro forma adjustments in the Pro Forma Balance Sheet. Deferred income tax liability arising from the preliminary estimate of fair value of VanceInfo's identifiable intangible assets has been calculated based on a preliminary estimate of the post-merger combined statutory tax rate of 15% for the combined company, multiplied by the preliminary estimate of fair value adjustments recorded to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed (excluding estimated goodwill of approximately US$40,176). This rate does not take into account any historical or possible future tax events that may impact the combined company.



j.

reflects the adjustment of depreciation of the revalued fixed assets.



k.

reflects the elimination of VanceInfo's common shares and the issuance of approximately 42,457 common shares of HiSoft (after giving effect to the HiSoft Share Consolidation), based on the outstanding VanceInfo common shares, ADSs and vested restricted share units on August 1, 2012 and the 1-for-1 exchange ratios. The pro forma weighted average number of basic shares outstanding is calculated by adding HiSoft's weighted average number of basic shares outstanding as of June 30, 2012 and the number of HiSoft shares expected to be issued as a result of the merger. The pro forma weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding is calculated by adding HiSoft's weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding as of June 30, 2012, the number of HiSoft shares expected to be issued as a result of the merger and the dilutive effect of the outstanding equity awards.

Each HiSoft ADS represents 19 HiSoft shares deposited with the Deutsche Bank AG, Hong Kong Branch, as custodian for the depositary, and an ownership interest in any other securities, cash or other property which may be held by the depositary.	Each VanceInfo ADS represents an ownership interest in one VanceInfo share deposited with the custodian, as agent of the depositary, and any securities, cash or property deposited with the depositary but which the depositary has not distributed to VanceInfo ADS holders.
Holders of HiSoft ADSs are not treated as shareholders of HiSoft and do not have the same rights as HiSoft shareholders. Rather, such holders have rights as holders of HiSoft ADSs, which are set forth in the HiSoft Deposit Agreement. The HiSoft ADS depositary will actually be the holder of the HiSoft shares underlying the registered HiSoft ADSs, so holders of HiSoft ADSs must rely on it to exercise the rights of a shareholder of HiSoft on their behalf.	Holders of VanceInfo ADSs are not treated as shareholders of VanceInfo and do not have the same rights as VanceInfo shareholders. Rather, such holders have rights as holders of VanceInfo ADSs, which are set forth in the VanceInfo ADS Deposit Agreement. The depositary's nominee will actually be the registered owner of the VanceInfo shares underlying the VanceInfo ADSs, so holders of VanceInfo ADSs must rely on it to exercise the rights of a VanceInfo shareholder on their behalf.
An investor may hold the HiSoft ADSs either directly or indirectly through its broker or other financial institution. If an investor holds HiSoft ADSs directly, it is a HiSoft ADR holder and the HiSoft ADSs will be registered in its name on the books of the HiSoft ADS depositary.	An investor may hold the VanceInfo ADSs either directly or indirectly through its broker or other financial institution. If an investor holds VanceInfo ADSs directly, it is a VanceInfo ADR holder and the VanceInfo ADSs will be registered in its name on the books of the VanceInfo depositary.
Dividends and Other Distributions

Holders will receive these distributions in proportion to the number of HiSoft shares their ADSs represent as of a specified record date.	distributions it or the custodian receives on shares or other deposited securities, after converting any cash received into U.S. dollars and, in all cases, making any necessary deductions provided for in the deposit agreement. Holders will receive these distributions in proportion to the number of underlying securities that their ADSs represent.
Distributions of Cash
The depositary will convert any cash dividend or other cash distribution HiSoft pays on the HiSoft shares or any net proceeds from the sale of any HiSoft shares, rights, securities or other entitlements into U.S. dollars if it can do so on a reasonable basis, and can transfer the U.S. dollars to the United States. If that is not possible or lawful or if any government approval is needed and cannot be obtained, the HiSoft Deposit Agreement allows the depositary to distribute the foreign currency only to those ADS holders to whom it is possible to do so. It will hold the foreign currency it cannot convert for the account of the ADS holders who have not been paid. It will not invest the foreign currency and it will not be liable for any interest. Before making a distribution, any taxes or other governmental charges, together with fees and expenses of the depositary, that must be paid, will be deducted. It will distribute only whole U.S. dollars and cents and will round fractional cents to the nearest whole cent. If the exchange rates fluctuate during a time when the depositary cannot convert the foreign currency, holders may lose some or all of the value of the distribution.	The depositary will distribute any U.S. dollars available to it resulting from a cash dividend or other cash distribution or the net proceeds of sales of any other distribution or portion thereof (to the extent applicable), on an averaged or other practicable basis, subject to (a) appropriate adjustments for taxes withheld, (b) such distribution being impermissible or impracticable with respect to certain registered holders, and (c) deduction of the depositary's expenses in (1) converting any foreign currency to U.S. dollars to the extent that it determines that such conversion may be made on a reasonable basis, (2) transferring foreign currency or U.S. dollars to the United States by such means as the depositary may determine to the extent that it determines that such transfer may be made on a reasonable basis, (3) obtaining any approval or license of any governmental authority required for such conversion or transfer, which is obtainable at a reasonable cost and within a reasonable time and (4) making any sale by public or private means in any commercially reasonable manner. If exchange rates fluctuate during a time when the depositary cannot convert a foreign currency, holders may lose some or all of the value of the distribution.
Distributions of Shares
The depositary may distribute additional ADSs representing any shares HiSoft distribute as a dividend or free distribution. The depositary will only distribute whole ADSs. It will try to sell shares which would require it to deliver a fractional ADS and distribute the net proceeds in the same way as it does with cash. If the depositary does not distribute additional ADSs, the outstanding ADSs will also represent the new shares. The depositary may sell a portion of the distributed shares sufficient to pay its fees and expenses in connection with that distribution.	In the case of a distribution in shares, the depositary will issue additional ADRs to evidence the number of ADSs representing such shares. Only whole ADSs will be issued. Any shares which would result in fractional ADSs will be sold and the net proceeds will be distributed in the same manner as cash to the ADR holders entitled thereto.

Distributions of Rights
If HiSoft offers holders of its shares any rights to subscribe for additional shares or any other rights, the depositary may make these rights available to ADS holders. HiSoft must first instruct the depositary to make such rights available to ADS holders and furnish the depositary with satisfactory evidence that it is legal and reasonably practicable to do so. If the depositary decides it is not legal and practical to make the rights available but that it is lawful and reasonably practical to sell the rights, the depositary will sell the rights (upon such terms as it may deem proper) and distribute the net proceeds in the same way as it does with cash. The depositary will allow rights that are not distributed or sold to lapse. In that case, ADS holders will receive no value for them. If the depositary makes rights available to ADS holders, it will exercise the rights and purchase the shares on holders' behalf. The depositary will then deposit the shares and deliver ADSs to the persons entitled to them. It will only exercise rights if the holder pays it applicable fees and charges of, and expenses incurred by, the Depositary and taxes and/or other governmental charges. U.S. securities laws may restrict transfers and cancellation of the ADSs represented by shares purchased upon exercise of rights. For example, holders may not be able to trade these ADSs freely in the United States. In this case, the depositary may deliver restricted depositary shares that have the same terms as the ADSs described in this section except for changes needed to put the necessary restrictions in place.	In the case of a distribution of rights to subscribe for additional shares or other rights, if VanceInfo provide satisfactory evidence that the depositary may lawfully distribute such rights, the depositary will distribute warrants or other instruments representing such rights. However, if VanceInfo do not furnish such evidence, the depositary may:         (1) sell such rights if practicable and distribute the net proceeds as cash; or         (2) if it is not practicable to sell such rights, do nothing and allow such rights to lapse, in which case ADR holders will receive nothing. VanceInfo has no obligation to file a registration statement under the U.S. securities laws in order to make any rights available to ADR holders.
Elective Distributions
If HiSoft offers holders of shares the option to receive dividends in either cash or shares, the depositary has discretion to determine to what extent such elective distribution will be made available to holders of the ADSs. HiSoft must first instruct the depositary to make such elective distribution available to ADS holders and furnish it with satisfactory evidence that it is legal and reasonable practicable to do so. The depositary could decide it is not legal or reasonably practical	N/A

186

Provisions Applicable to Holders of HiSoft ADSs	Provisions Applicable to Holders of VanceInfo ADSs
to make such elective distribution available to some but not all holders of the ADSs. In such case, the depositary shall, on the basis of the same determination as is made in respect of the shares for which no election is made, distribute either cash in the same way as it does in a cash distribution, or additional ADSs representing shares in the same way as it does in a share distribution. The depositary is not obligated to make available to ADS holders a method to receive the elective dividend in shares rather than in ADSs. There can be no assurance that ADS holders will be given the opportunity to receive elective distributions on the same terms and conditions as the holders of shares.
Other Distributions
Subject to receipt of timely notice from HiSoft with the request to make any such distribution available to ADS holders, and provided the depositary has determined such distribution is lawful and reasonably practicable and feasible and in accordance with the terms of the deposit agreement, the depositary will send to ADS holders anything else HiSoft distribute on deposited securities by any means it thinks is practicable for accomplishing such distribution. If it cannot make the distribution in that way, the depositary may decide to sell what HiSoft distributed and distribute the net proceeds in the same way as it does with cash or to hold what HiSoft distributed, in which case ADSs will also represent the newly distributed property. However, the depositary is not required to distribute any securities (other than ADSs) to ADS holders unless it receives satisfactory evidence from HiSoft that it is legal to make that distribution. The depositary may sell a portion of the distributed securities or property sufficient to pay its fees and expenses, and net of any taxes and/or governmental charges, in connection with that distribution.	In the case of a distribution of securities or property other than those described above, the depositary may either (a) distribute such securities or property in any manner it deems equitable and practicable or (b) to the extent the depositary deems distribution of such securities or property not to be equitable and practicable, sell such securities or property and distribute any net proceeds in the same way it distributes cash.
The depositary is not responsible if it decides that it is unlawful or impractical to make a distribution available to any ADS holders. HiSoft has no obligation to register ADSs, shares, rights or other securities under the U.S. securities laws. HiSoft	If the depositary determines that any distribution described above is not practicable with respect to any specific ADR holder, the depositary may choose any practicable method of distribution for such ADR holder, including the distribution of

also has no obligation to take any other action to permit the distribution of ADSs, shares, rights or anything else to ADS holders. This means that ADS holders may not receive the distributions HiSoft makes on its shares or any value for them if it is illegal or impractical for HiSoft to make them available to ADS holders.	foreign currency, securities or property, or it may retain such items, without paying interest on or investing them, on behalf of the ADR holder as deposited securities, in which case the ADSs will also represent the retained items. Any U.S. dollars will be distributed by checks drawn on a bank in the United States for whole dollars and cents. Fractional cents will be withheld without liability for interest thereon and dealt with by the depositary in accordance with its then current practices. The depositary is not responsible if it decides that it is unlawful or impractical to make a distribution available to any ADR holders. There can be no assurance that the depositary will be able to convert any currency at a specified exchange rate or sell any property, rights, shares or other securities at a specified price, nor that any of such transactions can be completed within a specified time period.
Redemption
Whenever HiSoft decides to redeem any of the securities on deposit with the custodian, it will notify the depositary in advance. If it is practicable and if HiSoft provides all of the documentation contemplated in the HiSoft Deposit Agreement, the depositary will provide notice of the redemption to the holders.	N/A
The custodian will be instructed to surrender the shares being redeemed against payment of the applicable redemption price. The depositary will convert the redemption funds received into U.S. dollars upon the terms of the HiSoft Deposit Agreement and will establish procedures to enable holders to receive the net proceeds from the redemption upon surrender of their ADSs to the depositary. ADS holders may have to pay fees, expenses, taxes and other governmental charges upon the redemption of their ADSs. If less than all ADSs are being redeemed, the ADSs to be retired will be selected by lot or on a pro rata basis, as the depositary may determine.
Voting
ADR holders may instruct the depositary to vote the deposited securities. Otherwise, ADR holders will not be able to exercise their right to vote	If the depositary asks ADR holders to provide it with voting instructions, ADR holders may instruct the depositary how to exercise the voting

unless ADR holders withdraw the shares their ADSs represent. However, ADR holders may not know about the meeting enough in advance to withdraw the shares. If HiSoft asks for ADR holders' instructions and upon timely notice from HiSoft, the depositary will notify ADR holders of the upcoming vote and arrange to deliver HiSoft's voting materials to ADR holders. The materials will include (1) notice of the relevant meeting or solicitation of consent or proxy, (2) a statement that the holders at the close of business on the ADS record date will be entitled to instruct the depositary to as tot eh exercise of the voting rights, if any, pertaining to the shares represented by the HiSoft ADSs and (3) a statement as to the manner in which such instructions may be given to the depositary, including an express indication that such instruction may be given or deemed given in accordance with the second to last sentence of this paragraph if no instruction is received, to the depositary to give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by HiSoft. For instructions to be valid, the depositary must receive them on or before the date specified. The depositary will try, as far as practical, subject to applicable laws, the provisions of the Deposit Agreement and the provisions of HiSoft's constitutive documents, to vote or to have its agents vote the shares or other deposited securities as ADR holders instruct. The depositary will only vote or attempt to vote as ADR holders instruct. If HiSoft timely requested the depositary to solicit ADR holders' instructions but no instructions are received by the depositary from an owner with respect to any of the deposited securities represented by the ADSs of that owner on or before the date established by the depositary for such purpose, the depositary shall deem that owner to have instructed the depositary to give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by HiSoft with respect to such deposited securities, and the depositary shall give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by HiSoft to vote such deposited securities. However, no such instruction shall be deemed given and no such discretionary proxy shall be given with respect to any matter if HiSoft inform the depositary HiSoft does not wish such proxy given,

rights for the shares which underlie their ADSs. After receiving voting materials from VanceInfo, the depositary will notify the ADR holders of any shareholder meeting or solicitation of consents or proxies. This notice will state such information as it is contained in the voting materials and describe how ADR holders may instruct the depositary to exercise the voting rights for the shares which underlie their ADSs and will include instructions for giving a discretionary proxy to a person designated by VanceInfo. For instructions to be valid, the depositary must receive them in the manner and on or before the date specified. The depositary will try, as far as is practical, subject to the provisions of and governing the underlying shares or other deposited securities, to vote or to have its agents vote the shares or other deposited securities as ADR holders instruct. The depositary will only vote or attempt to vote as ADR holders instruct. The depositary will not itself exercise any voting discretion. Furthermore, neither the depositary nor its agents are responsible for any failure to carry out any voting instructions, for the manner in which any vote is cast or for the effect of any vote. There is no guarantee that ADR holders will receive voting materials in time to instruct the depositary to vote and it is possible that ADR holders, or persons who hold their ADSs through brokers, dealers or other third parties, will not have the opportunity to exercise a right to vote.

189

Provisions Applicable to Holders of HiSoft ADSs	Provisions Applicable to Holders of VanceInfo ADSs
substantial opposition exists from holders against the outcome sought by HiSoft or the matter materially and adversely affects the rights of holders of the shares. HiSoft cannot assure ADR holders that ADR holders will receive the voting materials in time to ensure that ADR holders can instruct the depositary to vote the shares underlying their ADSs. In addition, the depositary and its agents are not responsible for failing to carry out voting instructions or for the manner of carrying out voting instructions. This means that ADR holders may not be able to exercise their right to vote and there may be nothing ADR holders can do if the shares underlying their ADSs are not voted as ADR holders requested. In order to give ADR holders a reasonable opportunity to instruct the depositary as to the exercise of voting rights relating to deposited securities, if HiSoft requests the depositary to act, HiSoft will try to give the depositary notice of any such meeting and details concerning the matters to be voted upon sufficiently in advance of the meeting date as specified in the Deposit Agreement.
Fees
Persons depositing or withdrawing HiSoft shares or HiSoft ADSs must pay the following amounts under the following circumstances: • US$0.05 (or less) per ADS for: (1) issuance of ADSs, including issuances resulting from a distribution of shares or rights or other property or (2) cancellation of ADSs for the purpose of withdrawal, including if the HiSoft Deposit Agreement terminates; • US$0.05 (or less) per ADS for any cash proceeds distribution to ADS holders; • US$0.05 (or less) per ADS issued upon the exercise of rights; • US$0.05 (or less) per ADS for the operation and maintenance costs in administering the ADSs (accessed annually); • registration or transfer fees for transfer and registration of shares on the HiSoft share register to or from the name of the depositary or its agent when an ADS holder deposits or withdraws shares;	VanceInfo ADR holders will be charged a fee for each issuance of ADSs, including issuances resulting from distributions of shares, rights and other property, and for each surrender of ADSs in exchange for deposited securities. The fee in each case is US$5.00 for each 100 ADSs (or any portion thereof) issued or surrendered. The following additional charges shall be incurred by the ADR holders, by any party depositing or withdrawing shares or by any party surrendering ADRs or to whom ADRs are issued (including issuance pursuant to a stock dividend or stock split declared by VanceInfo or an exchange of stock regarding the ADRs or the deposited securities or a distribution of ADRs): • to the extent not prohibited by the rules of any stock exchange or interdealer quotation system upon which the ADSs are traded, a fee of US$1.50 per ADR or ADRs for transfers of certificated or direct registration ADRs;

Changes Affecting Deposited Securities
If HiSoft changes the nominal or par value of HiSoft's shares, then the cash, shares or other securities received by the depositary will become deposited securities. If HiSoft reclassifies, splits up or consolidates any of the deposited securities, then each ADS will automatically represent its equal share of the new deposited securities. If HiSoft distributes securities on the shares that are not distributed to ADS holders or recapitalizes, reorganizes, merges, liquidates, sells all or substantially all of HiSoft's assets, or takes any similar action, then the depositary may distribute some or all of the cash, shares or other securities it received. It may also deliver new ADSs or ask holders to surrender their outstanding ADRs in exchange for new ADRs identifying the new deposited securities.	If VanceInfo takes certain actions that affect the deposited securities, including (i) any change in par value, split-up, consolidation, cancellation or other reclassification of deposited securities or (ii) any recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, liquidation, receivership, bankruptcy or sale of all or substantially all of our assets, then the depositary may choose to:         (1) amend the form of ADR;         (2) distribute additional or amended ADRs;         (3) distribute cash, securities or other property it has received in connection with such actions;         (4) sell any securities or property received and distribute the proceeds as cash; or         (5) none of the above. If the depositary does not choose any of the above options, any of the cash, securities or other property it receives will constitute part of the deposited securities and each ADS will then represent a proportionate interest in such property.
Limitations on Obligations and Liabilities to ADR Holders
The HiSoft Deposit Agreement expressly limits HiSoft's obligations and the obligations of the depositary. It also limits HiSoft's liability and the liability of the depositary. HiSoft and the depositary: • are only obligated to take the actions specifically set forth in the deposit agreement without gross negligence or willful misconduct; • are not liable if either of HiSoft or the depositary is prevented or delayed by law or circumstances beyond their control from performing their obligations under the deposit agreement, including requirements of any present or future law, regulation, governmental or regulatory authority or share exchange of any applicable jurisdiction, any present or future provisions of HiSoft's memorandum and	The deposit agreement expressly limits the obligations and liability of the depositary, VanceInfo and their respective agents. Neither VanceInfo nor the depositary nor any such agent will be liable if: • present or future law, rule or regulation of the United States, the Cayman Islands, the People's Republic of China or any other country, or of any governmental or regulatory authority or securities exchange or market or automated quotation system, the provisions of or governing any deposited securities, any present or future provision of our charter, any act of God, war, terrorism or other circumstance beyond our, the depositary's or our respective agents' control shall prevent, delay or subject to any civil or criminal penalty any act which the deposit

Neither the depositary nor its agents have any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding in respect of any deposited securities or the ADRs. VanceInfo and its agents shall only be obligated to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding in respect of any deposited securities or the ADRs, which in its opinion may involve VanceInfo in expense or liability, if indemnity satisfactory to VanceInfo against all expense (including fees and disbursements of counsel) and liability is furnished as often as may be required. The depositary and its agents may fully respond to any and all demands or requests for information maintained by or on its behalf in connection with the deposit agreement, any registered holder or holders of ADRs, any ADSs or otherwise to the extent such information is requested or required by or pursuant to any lawful authority, including laws, rules, regulations, administrative or judicial process, banking, securities or other regulators.

In the deposit agreement, HiSoft and the depositary agree to indemnify each other under certain circumstances.

The depositary will not be responsible for failing to carry out instructions to vote the deposited securities or for the manner in which the deposited securities are voted or the effect of the vote. In no event shall VanceInfo, the depositary or any of their respective agents be liable to holders of ADSs or interests therein for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages. The depositary may own and deal in deposited securities and in ADSs.

LIMITATIONS ON ENFORCEMENT OF U.S. LAWS

        HiSoft was incorporated in the Cayman Islands in order to enjoy the following benefits:

•

political and economic stability;

•

an effective judicial system;

•

a favorable tax system;

•

the absence of exchange control or currency restrictions; and

•

the availability of professional and support services.

        However, certain disadvantages accompany incorporation in the Cayman Islands. These disadvantages include:

•

the Cayman Islands has a less developed body of securities laws as compared to the United States and these securities laws provide significantly less protection to investors; and

•

Cayman Islands companies may not have standing to sue before the federal courts of the United States.

        HiSoft's constituent documents do not contain provisions requiring that disputes, including those arising under the securities laws of the United States, between HiSoft, its officers, directors and shareholders, be arbitrated.

        A substantial part of HiSoft's operations are conducted outside of the United States, and a substantial portion of its assets are located outside of the United States. One-half of HiSoft's directors and officers are nationals or residents of jurisdictions other than the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for a shareholder to effect service of process within the United States upon these persons, or to enforce against HiSoft or its directors and officers judgments obtained in United States courts, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States.

        HiSoft has appointed Law Debenture Corporate Services Inc., located at 400 Madison Avenue, 4th Floor, New York, New York 10017, United States, as its agent upon whom process may be served in any action brought against it under the securities laws of the United States.

        Maples and Calder, HiSoft's counsel as to Cayman Islands law, has advised HiSoft that there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the Cayman Islands would recognize or enforce judgments of United States courts obtained against HiSoft or its directors or officers predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States, and it is not aware of any treaties between either of the United States or PRC and the Cayman Islands over the reciprocal enforcement of judgments. Maples and Calder has further advised HiSoft that there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the Cayman Islands would entertain original actions brought in the Cayman Islands against HiSoft or its directors or officers predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States, and it is not aware of any original actions which have been brought in the Cayman Islands based on the securities laws of the United States.

        Fangda Partners, HiSoft's counsel as to PRC law, has advised HiSoft that there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the PRC would recognize or enforce judgments of United States courts obtained against HiSoft or its directors or officers predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States. Fangda Partners has further advised HiSoft that there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the PRC would entertain original actions brought in the PRC against HiSoft or its directors or officers predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States, and it is not aware of any original actions which have been brought in the PRC based on the securities laws of the United States.

195

        Maples and Calder has further advised HiSoft that a final and conclusive judgment in personam in the federal or state courts of the United States under which a sum of money is payable, other than a sum payable in respect of multiple damages, taxes, fines, penalties or similar charges, may be recognized by the courts of the Cayman Islands provided that (1) such courts had proper jurisdiction over the parties subject to such judgment (2) such courts did not contravene the rules of natural justice of the Cayman Islands, (3) such judgment was not obtained by fraud, (4) the enforcement of the judgment would not be contrary to the public policy of the Cayman Islands, (5) no new admissible evidence relevant to the action is submitted prior to the rendering of the judgment by the courts of the Cayman Islands, and (6) there is due compliance with the correct procedures under the laws of the Cayman Islands.

        Fangda Partners has further advised HiSoft that the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments are provided for under PRC Civil Procedures Law. PRC courts may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the requirements of PRC Civil Procedures Law based either on treaties between China and the country where the judgment is made or on reciprocity arrangements between jurisdictions. If there are no treaties or reciprocity arrangements between the PRC and a foreign jurisdiction where a judgment is rendered, according to the PRC Civil Procedures Law, matters relating to the recognition and enforcement of the foreign judgments in the PRC may be resolved through diplomatic channels. The PRC does not have any treaties or other agreements with the United States that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. In addition, according to the PRC Civil Procedures Law, courts in the PRC will not enforce a foreign judgment if they decide that the judgment violates the basic principles of PRC law or national sovereignty, security or public interest. As a result, it is generally difficult to enforce in the PRC a judgment rendered by a U.S. court.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED INTERIM

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE SIX-MONTH PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 2011 AND 2012

(In thousands of U.S. dollars, except share and per share data)

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION

(a)

The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements include the financial information of HiSoft Technology International Limited (the "Company"), its subsidiaries, and its variable interest entity (collectively, the "Group"). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full years. The Group believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, accounting policies and financial notes thereto included in the Group's audited consolidated financial statements for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2011. In the opinion of the management, the accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair representation of financial results for the interim periods presented.

The financial information as of December 31, 2011 presented in the unaudited condensed financial statements is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011.

The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the same accounting policies as used in the preparation of the Group's consolidated financial statements for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2011.

Newly adopted accounting pronouncements

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued an authoritative pronouncement on fair value measurement. The guidance is the result of joint efforts by the FASB and International Accounting Standards Board to develop a single, converged fair value framework. The guidance is largely consistent with existing fair value measurement principles in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The guidance expands the existing disclosure requirements for fair value measurements and makes other amendments, mainly including:

•

Highest-and-best-use and valuation-premise concepts for nonfinancial assets—the guidance indicates that the highest-and-best-use and valuation-premise concepts only apply to measuring the fair value of nonfinancial assets.

•

Application to financial assets and financial liabilities with offsetting positions in market risks or counterparty credit risk—the guidance permits an exception to fair value measurement principles for financial assets and financial liabilities (and derivatives) with offsetting positions in market risks or counterparty credit risk when several criteria are met. When the criteria are met, an entity can measure the fair value of the net risk position.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

FOR THE SIX-MONTH PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 2011 AND 2012

(In thousands of U.S. dollars, except share and per share data)

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION (Continued)

•

Premiums or discounts in fair value measure—the guidance provides that premiums or discounts that reflect size as a characteristic of the reporting entity's holding (specifically, a blockage factor that adjusts the quoted price of an asset or a liability because the market's normal daily trading volume is not sufficient to absorb the quantity held by the entity) rather than as a characteristic of the asset or liability (for example, a control premium when measuring the fair value of a controlling interest) are not permitted in a fair value measurement.

•

Fair value of an instrument classified in a reporting entity's stockholders' equity—the guidance prescribes a model for measuring the fair value of an instrument classified in stockholders' equity; this model is consistent with the guidance on measuring the fair value of liabilities.

•

Disclosures about fair value measurements—the guidance expands disclosure requirements, particularly for Level 3 inputs. Required disclosures include:



(i)

For fair value measurements categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy: (1) a quantitative disclosure of the unobservable inputs and assumptions used in the measurement, (2) a description of the valuation process in place (e.g., how the entity decides its valuation policies and procedures, as well as changes in its analyses of fair value measurements, from period to period), and (3) a narrative description of the sensitivity of the fair value to changes in unobservable inputs and interrelationships between those inputs.



(ii)

The level in the fair value hierarchy of items that are not measured at fair value in the statement of financial position but whose fair value must be disclosed.

The guidance was applied prospectively and was effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011, for public entities. Early application by public entities is not permitted. The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant effect on the Group's consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement to require an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. The guidance eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders' equity. The guidance does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. The guidance should be applied retrospectively. For public entities, the guidance was effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. In December 2011, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement related to deferral of the effective date for amendments to the presentation of reclassifications of items out of accumulated other comprehensive income. This guidance allows the FASB to redeliberate whether to present on the

face of the financial statements the effects of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the components of net income and other comprehensive income for all periods presented. While the FASB is considering the operational concerns about the presentation requirements for reclassification adjustments and the needs of financial statement users for additional information about reclassification adjustments, entities should continue to report reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income consistent with the presentation requirements in effect before update the pronouncement issued in June 2011. The Group adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012 and chose to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income in two separate but consecutive statements.

In September 2011, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement related to testing goodwill for impairment. The guidance is intended to simplify how entities, both public and nonpublic, test goodwill for impairment. The guidance permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is "more likely than not" that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. The guidance was effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed as of a date before September 15, 2011, if a public entity's financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued. The result did not have an effect or impact the Group's consolidated financial statements.

Recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

In December 2011, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement related to disclosures about offsetting assets and liabilities. The guidance requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. An entity is required to apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. An entity should provide the disclosures required by those amendments retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The Group is in the process of evaluating the effect of adoption of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

In July 2012, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement related to testing indefinite-lived intangible assets, other than goodwill, for impairment. Under the guidance, an entity testing an indefinite-lived intangible asset for impairment has the option of performing a qualitative assessment before calculating the fair value of the asset. If the entity determines, on the basis of qualitative factors, that the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset is not more likely than not (i.e., a likelihood of more than 50 percent) impaired, the entity would not need to calculate the fair value of the asset. The guidance does not revise the requirement to test indefinite-lived intangible assets annually for impairment. In addition, the guidance does not amend the requirement to test these assets for impairment between annual tests if there is a change in events

Contingent consideration

The Group estimates and records the acquisition date estimated fair value of contingent consideration as part of purchase price consideration for acquisitions. The Group measures the fair value of the contingent considerations using the 'income approach' valuation method. Additionally, each reporting period, the Group estimates changes in the fair value of contingent consideration, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

An increase in the earn-out expected to be paid will result in a charge to operations in the quarter that the anticipated fair value of contingent consideration increases, while a decrease in the earn-out expected to be paid will result in a credit to operations in the period that the anticipated fair value of contingent consideration decreases. The estimate of the fair value of contingent consideration requires subjective assumptions to be made of future operating results, discount rates, and probabilities assigned to various potential operating result scenarios. Future revisions to these assumptions could materially change the estimate of the fair value of contingent consideration and, therefore, materially affect the Group's future financial results.

8. INCOME TAXES

The Group's effective income tax rate for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2012 was 11.0% and 15.0%, respectively. The change was primarily due to the following reasons: 1) the change of tax rate of hiSoft Wuxi from nil to 12.5% as its tax exemption period has passed starting from January 1, 2012; 2) the higher tax rates of certain newly acquired entities.

The Group had no change in its unrecognized tax benefits for both periods.

The Group is subject to taxation in China and also various other jurisdictions. There are no ongoing examinations by tax authorities at this time. The Group's various tax years from 2006 to 2012 remain open in various taxing jurisdictions.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE SIX-MONTH PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 2011 AND 2012

(In U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and share related data)

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

        The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP").

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

        In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued an authoritative pronouncement on fair value measurement. The guidance is the result of joint efforts by the FASB and IASB to develop a single, converged fair value framework. The guidance is largely consistent with existing fair value measurement principles in U.S. GAAP. The guidance expands the existing disclosure requirements for fair value measurements and makes other amendments, mainly including:

•

Highest-and-best-use and valuation-premise concepts for nonfinancial assets—the guidance indicates that the highest-and-best-use and valuation-premise concepts only apply to measuring the fair value of nonfinancial assets.

•

Application to financial assets and financial liabilities with offsetting positions in market risks or counterparty credit risk—the guidance permits an exception to fair value measurement principles for financial assets and financial liabilities (and derivatives) with offsetting positions in market risks or counterparty credit risk when several criteria are met. When the criteria are met, an entity can measure the fair value of the net risk position.

•

Premiums or discounts in fair value measure—the guidance states that "premiums or discounts that reflect size as a characteristic of the reporting entity's holding (specifically, a blockage factor that adjusts the quoted price of an asset or a liability because the market's normal daily trading volume is not sufficient to absorb the quantity held by the entity) rather than as a characteristic of the asset or liability (for example, a control premium when measuring the fair value of a controlling interest) are not permitted in a fair value measurement."

•

Fair value of an instrument classified in a reporting entity's shareholders' equity—the guidance prescribes a model for measuring the fair value of an instrument classified in shareholders' equity; this model is consistent with the guidance on measuring the fair value of liabilities.

•

Disclosures about fair value measurements—the guidance expands disclosure requirements, particularly for Level 3 inputs. Required disclosures include:

•

For fair value measurements categorized in level 3 of the fair value hierarchy: (1) a quantitative disclosure of the unobservable inputs and assumptions used in the measurement, (2) a description of the valuation process in place (e.g., how the entity decides its valuation policies and procedures, as well as changes in its analyses of fair value measurements, from period to period), and (3) a narrative description of the sensitivity of the fair value to changes in unobservable inputs and interrelationships between those inputs.

•

The level in the fair value hierarchy of items that are not measured at fair value in the statement of financial position but whose fair value must be disclosed.

FOR THE SIX-MONTH PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 2011 AND 2012

(In U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and share related data)

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

        The guidance is to be applied prospectively and effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a significant impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements.

        In June 2011, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement to allow an entity the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. The guidance eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in shareholders' equity. These amendments do not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. The guidance should be applied retrospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. In December 2011, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement related to deferral of the effective date for amendments to the presentation of reclassifications of items out of accumulated other comprehensive income. This guidance allows the FASB to redeliberate whether to present on the face of the financial statements the effects of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the components of net income and other comprehensive income for all periods presented . The Group early adopted this guidance on January 1, 2009 and reported the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income and other comprehensive income in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. It did not have a significant effect on its consolidated financial statements.

        In December 2011, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement related to Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The guidance requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. An entity is required to apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. An entity should provide the disclosures required by those amendments retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The Group does not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

        In July 2012, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement related to testing indefinite-lived intangible assets, other than goodwill, for impairment. Under the pronouncement, entities testing indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment would have the option of performing a qualitative assessment before calculating the fair value of the asset. If an entity determines, on the basis of qualitative factors, that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is not more likely than not impaired, a quantitative fair value calculation would not be needed. The amendments are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The Group does not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

13. NET INCOME PER SHARE

        The calculation of the net income per share is as follows:

		Six-Month Periods Ended June 30,

Net income attributable to holders of ordinary shares (numerator)			14,063			8,014
Shares (denominator):
Weighted average ordinary shares outstanding used in computing net income per share-basic	(i)		43,753,968	(i)		42,210,996	(i)

Net income per share-basic			0.32			0.19
Net income per share-diluted			0.31			0.18

(i)

In 2010, the Company issued 2,140,148 ordinary shares for future delivery to employees and non-employees upon exercise of vested stock options or grant of nonvested shares. 335,955 and 441,360 shares were transferred to the relevant employees in the six-month periods ended 2011 and 2012, respectively. Accordingly, the remaining shares outstanding during the periods were excluded in computation of basic net income per share in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2012.

The ordinary shares issuable in connection with business acquisitions were include in computation of basic net income per share.

(ii)

The Group had securities outstanding which could potentially dilute basic net income per share in the future, but which were excluded from the computation of diluted net income per share in the six-month periods ended of June 30, 2011 and 2012 as their effects would have been anti-dilutive. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, such outstanding securities were consisted of stock options and nonvested shares of a weighted average number of 811,650 and 1,482,468, respectively.

A weighted average number of 48,563 and 162,060 contingently issuable ordinary shares and nonvested shares in connection with business acquisitions were included in the computation of diluted net income per share in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively.

The calculation of the weighted average number of ordinary shares in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2012 for the purpose of diluted net income per share has included the effect of stock options and nonvested shares of a weighted average number of 2,796,529 and 2,943,470 which gives rise to an incremental weighted average number of 2,190,145 and 1,530,895 ordinary shares from the assumed conversion of these stock options and nonvested shares using the treasury stock method, respectively.

The plan will expire on the tenth anniversary of the effective date of the plan. The term of any option granted under the 2007 Share Incentive Plan shall not exceed ten years. The options and nonvested shares will vest first ¹/4 on the first anniversary of the date of grant and thereafter, ¹/16 on each of the quarterly anniversaries from of the first vesting date.

14. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION (Continued)

        The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying awards and the closing stock price of $9.58 of the Company's common stock as of June 30, 2012.

        The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the six-month period ended June 30, 2012 was $2,530.

(1)

Volatility

        The fair value of each option award was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Method valuation model. The volatility assumption was estimated based on the historical stock price volatility of listed comparable companies over a period comparable to the expected term of the options. From October 2011, the volatility was estimated based on the historical volatility of the Company's share price as the Company has accumulated sufficient history of stock price for a period comparable to the expected term of the options. Assumptions about the expected term were based on the vesting and contractual terms.

(2)

Risk-free interest rate of return

        Risk-free interest rate was estimated based on the yield to maturity of China international government bonds with a maturity period close to the expected term of the options.

(3)

Expected term

        As the Company did not have sufficient historical share option exercise experience, it estimated the expected term as the average between the vesting term of the options and the original contractual term.

(4)

Dividend yield

        The dividend yield was estimated by the Company based on its expected dividend policy over the expected term of the options.

(5)

Exercise price

        The exercise price of the options was determined by the Company's Board of Directors.

(6)

Fair value of underlying ordinary shares

        When estimating the fair value of the ordinary shares on the grant dates before the Initial Public Offering (the "IPO") of the Company, management considered a number of factors, including the result of equity transactions of the Company, while taking into account standard valuation methods and the achievement of certain events. After the IPO, the closing market price of the ordinary shares of the Company as of the grant date was used as the fair value of the ordinary shares on that date.

        The Group recorded share-based compensation of $2,104 and $2,095 for options granted to employees and non-employee directors for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively, using the graded vesting attribution method.

14. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION (Continued)

        There was total unrecognized compensation expense of $3,504 related to unvested share options granted as of June 30, 2012. The expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.50 years according to the graded vesting schedule.

II. Nonvested Shares

        In the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, the Company granted 335,248 nonvested ordinary shares, respectively, to employees under 2007 Share Incentive Plan. The nonvested shares will vest 1/4 on the first anniversary of the vesting commencement date and thereafter the remaining 3/4 will vest on a pro-rata basis after the expiration of each of the 12 quarters after the first vesting date.

        A summary of the nonvested shares activity is as follows:

	Weighted number of nonvested shares			Weighted average fair value per ordinary share at the grant dates
Outstanding as of December 31, 2011		447,951			22.47
Granted		335,248			12.28
Vested		(79,115	)		26.10
Forfeited		(25,181	)		15.73
Outstanding as of June 30, 2012		678,903			17.27

        In December 2010, the Company granted 85,000 nonvested shares to certain executives and employees at a discount purchase price of $22.00 per share, which is lower than the market closing price of $34.13 on December 15, 2010, the day before the grant date, by $12.13. 25% of the 85,000 nonvested shares will vest on the first anniversary of the grant date and 6.25% will vest each of the following 12 quarter. The total purchase price of $1,210, net of forfeiture, was recorded as a liability when the amount was paid by the relevant executives and employees. This liability will be eliminated with a corresponding increase in equity upon the vesting of nonvested shares over the vesting period.

        The Company recorded compensation expenses based on the fair value of nonvested shares on the grant dates over the requisite service period of award using the graded vesting attribution method. The fair value of the nonvested shares on the grant date was the closing market price of the ordinary shares as of the date. The compensation expense of $1,758 and $2,187 was recorded in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively.

        There was total unrecognized compensation expense of $5,034 related to nonvested shares granted as of June 30, 2012. The expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.07 years according to the graded vesting schedule.

III. Nonvested shares of a subsidiary granted to employees

        In September 2011, the Company incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary named VanceInfo Financial Solutions Limited ("VanceInfo Financial Solutions") to strengthen its business intelligence service. The Company is committed to granting up to 33.3% equity interest or 1,000,000 ordinary

shares of VanceInfo Financial Solutions in the form of nonvested shares to key employees for their continuing employment. The Company is entitled to the right of repurchasing all equity interests held by the key employees after December 31, 2012.

        In November 2011, 790,000 of VanceInfo Financial Solutions' nonvested shares were granted to newly recruited key employees of VanceInfo Financial Solutions. The estimated fair value of VanceInfo Financial Solutions' nonvested shares as of the grant date was $1.14 per share. 50% of 790,000 nonvested shares will vest on November 1, 2012 and remaining 50% will vest on a pro-rata basis after the expiration of each of the four quarters after the first anniversary. The remaining 210,000 nonvested shares were granted in April, 2012 with the estimated fair value of $1.14 per share as of the grant date. 50% of 210,000 nonvested shares will vest on April 1, 2013 and the remaining 50% will vest on a pro-rata basis after the expiration of each of the four quarters after the first anniversary. The related compensation expense of $255 was recorded for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012. As of June 30, 2012 the total unrecognized compensation expense was $810, which is expected to be recognized in 1.44 years using straight line method.

15. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Measured on recurring basis

        The Group's financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2011 and June, 30 2012 include a foreign currency exchange forward contract (Note 7) based on Level 2 inputs and the contingent consideration payable in connection with business acquisitions consummated from 2010 to 2012 based on Level 3 inputs.

        The following table summarizes the Group's financial liabilities measured at fair value on recurring basis.

15. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (Continued)

Contingent consideration

        The Group estimates and records the acquisition date estimated fair value of contingent consideration as part of purchase price consideration for acquisitions using income approach model. Additionally, each reporting period, the Group estimates changes in the fair value of contingent consideration by updating all the assumptions used in the income approach model, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

        Changes in the earn-out expected to be paid will result in a charge to operations in the quarter that the fair value of contingent consideration increases or decreases. The estimate of the fair value of contingent consideration requires subjective assumptions to be made of future operating results, discount rates, and timing of earn-out payments. Future revisions to these assumptions could materially change the estimate of the fair value of contingent consideration and, therefore, materially affect the Group's future financial results.

        The fair value measurement of the contingent consideration encompasses the following significant unobservable inputs:

Unobservable Inputs	Range
Estimated contingent consideration payments	$715 - $7,956
Discount rate	6.40%
Timing of cash flows	0.83 years - 2.56 years

        The following table summarizes the movement of the balances of the Group's financial (liabilities) measured at fair value on a recurring basis based on Level 3 inputs:

	Amounts
Balance as of January 1, 2012		(18,236	)
Initial recognition of contingent consideration in connection with business acquisitions		(7,174	)
Change in fair value of contingent considerations		84
Transfer of contingent consideration to payable		2,394
Settlement of contingent consideration		3,091
Exchange difference		190
Balance as of June 30, 2012		(19,651	)

        The Group's financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis include acquired assets and liabilities based on Level 3 inputs in connection with business acquisitions.

16. COMMITMENTS

17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Merger transaction with HiSoft

        On August 10, 2012, the Company announced that it had entered into a definitive merger agreement with HiSoft Technology International Limited ("HiSoft"), under which the two entities would be combined in an all-stock merger. Following completion of the proposed merger, the Company and HiSoft shareholders will each own approximately 50% of the combined company. HiSoft will be the surviving listed company in the merger, and its shares will continue to be listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market. The merger will be accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method with HiSoft treated as the acquirer. Each outstanding ordinary share of the Company will be exchanged for the right to receive one common share of the Company and each American Depositary Share of the Company, each of which represents one ordinary share, will be exchanged for the right to receive one American Depositary Share of HiSoft ("HiSoft ADS"). Immediately prior to the merger, HiSoft will effect a 13.9482-to-1 share consolidation and change the ratio of HiSoft ADSs representing ordinary shares from one ADS for nineteen shares to one ADS for one share. As announced by the Company, the transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2012.

Option Amendment Program

        In July 2012, the Company approved an option amendment program. Certain previously granted options were amended to have a lower exercise price and a new vesting schedule was determined by adding 12 months to each vesting date under the amended options' original vesting schedule. In addition, the amended options will vest no sooner than six months after the amendment date. The modification charge will be recognized over the vesting periods ranging from six months to four years.

          (i)  Other than as provided in Section 2.1(b)(ii), subject to the consummation of the Share Consolidation, each ordinary share, par value US$0.001 per share, of VanceInfo issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (individually, a "VanceInfo Share" and collectively, the "VanceInfo Shares") (other than the Excluded Shares), shall be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive one (the "Share Exchange Ratio") validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable common share of HiSoft ("HiSoft Share") which as of the date of this Agreement, has a, par value of US$0.0001 per share and, immediately prior to the Effective Time will have a par value of US$0.00139482 per share (the "Per Share Merger Consideration").

         (ii)  Subject to the consummation of the Share Consolidation and the ADS Adjustment, each American depositary share of VanceInfo, each of which represents one VanceInfo Share (the "VanceInfo ADSs"), shall be cancelled in exchange for the right of the holder of the relevant VanceInfo ADS at the direction of the VanceInfo Depositary to receive one (the "ADS Exchange Ratio") American depositary share of HiSoft (the "HiSoft ADS") which, as of the date of this Agreement represents 19 HiSoft Shares and immediately prior to the Effective Time, will represent one HiSoft Share (the "Per ADS Merger Consideration" and together with the Per Share Merger Consideration, the "Merger Consideration").

As of the Effective Time, all VanceInfo Shares, including VanceInfo Shares represented by VanceInfo ADSs, shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of its holder, automatically be cancelled, shall no longer be issued or outstanding and shall cease to exist and the register of members of VanceInfo will be amended accordingly. Each VanceInfo Share (other than the Excluded Shares) shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration and each VanceInfo Share represented by a VanceInfo ADS, together with such VanceInfo ADS, shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Per ADS Merger Consideration, as the case may be, in each case without interest.

        (c)    Cancellation of VanceInfo Shares.    Notwithstanding Section 2.1(b), each VanceInfo Share and each VanceInfo ADS issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that is (i) issued to the VanceInfo Depositary and reserved for future grants under the VanceInfo Share Incentive Plans, (ii) repurchased and held by VanceInfo in treasury or by the VanceInfo Depositary either in the form of VanceInfo Shares or VanceInfo ADSs, or (iii) owned by HiSoft Merger Sub or any direct or indirect subsidiary of HiSoft Merger Sub or VanceInfo (collectively, the "Excluded Shares") shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of its holder, automatically be cancelled, shall no longer

be issued or outstanding and shall cease to exist, and the register of members of VanceInfo will be amended accordingly, and no consideration shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange therefor.

        (d)    Untraceable Shareholders.    The Per Share Merger Consideration shall not be issued or delivered to VanceInfo shareholders who are untraceable unless, except as provided below, such VanceInfo shareholders provide written notice of their current contact details to the Exchange Agent prior to the Effective Time. A VanceInfo shareholder will be deemed to be untraceable if (i) such shareholder has no registered address in the register of members maintained by VanceInfo, (ii) on the last two consecutive occasions on which a dividend has been paid by VanceInfo, a check payable to such shareholder either (A) has been sent to such shareholder and has been returned undelivered or has not been cashed or (B) has not been sent to such shareholder because on an earlier occasion a check for a dividend so payable has been returned undelivered, and in any such case no valid claim in respect thereof has been communicated in writing to VanceInfo or (iii) notice of the VanceInfo Shareholders Meeting has been sent to such shareholder and has been returned undelivered.

        (e)    Certain Adjustments.    Notwithstanding any provision of this Article II to the contrary, if between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time the outstanding VanceInfo Shares or HiSoft Shares, as applicable, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for VanceInfo Shares or HiSoft Shares, as applicable, shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class by reason of the occurrence or record date of any share dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, reverse split, combination, consolidation, readjustment, exchange of shares or similar transaction, the Per Share Merger Consideration and Per ADS Merger Consideration, respectively, shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect such share dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, reverse split, combination, consolidation, readjustment, exchange of shares or similar transaction; provided that no such adjustment shall be made in connection with the Share Consolidation.

Section 2.2 Treatment of VanceInfo Equity Awards.

        (a)   Each VanceInfo Option that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not exercisable or vested, shall, at the Effective Time, be assumed by HiSoft and be replaced by HiSoft with a HiSoft Option. Each such HiSoft Option shall be exercisable for that number of whole HiSoft Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of (i) the total number of VanceInfo Shares subject to such VanceInfo Option multiplied by (ii) the Share Exchange Ratio, at an exercise price per HiSoft Share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the exercise price per share of such VanceInfo Option by (y) the Share Exchange Ratio. Each such HiSoft Option shall otherwise continue to have, and shall be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to such VanceInfo Option immediately prior to the Effective Time.

        (b)   Each VanceInfo RSU that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, shall, at the Effective Time, be assumed by HiSoft and be replaced by HiSoft with a number of HiSoft restricted share units ("HiSoft RSUs") equal to the product of (i) the total number of VanceInfo Shares subject to such VanceInfo RSU multiplied by (ii) the Share Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole HiSoft Shares. Each such HiSoft RSU shall otherwise continue to have, and shall be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to such VanceInfo RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time.

        (c)   The VanceInfo Share Incentive Plans and all obligations thereunder shall be assumed by HiSoft effective as of the Effective Time. HiSoft shall take such actions as are necessary for the assumption and conversion of the VanceInfo Options and VanceInfo RSUs pursuant to this Section 2.2.

        (b)   Prior to the Effective Time, HiSoft shall deposit, allot and issue or cause to be deposited, allotted and issued, as the case may be, with the Exchange Agent, a number of HiSoft Shares and HiSoft ADSs sufficient to settle the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Article II.

        (a)    Holders of VanceInfo Shares.    (i) Promptly after the Effective Time (and in any event within five business days thereafter), the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each registered holder of VanceInfo Shares (other than the VanceInfo Depositary and holders of Excluded Shares) (i) a form of letter of transmittal (which shall specify the manner in which delivery of the Per Share Merger Consideration to the registered holders of VanceInfo Shares shall be effected) and (ii) instructions for effecting the surrender of any and all share certificates which have been issued representing VanceInfo Shares (the "Certificates"). Each registered holder of VanceInfo Shares (including VanceInfo Shares not represented by a Certificate ("Uncertificated Shares")) shall be entitled to receive the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration, without interest, for each VanceInfo Share (including VanceInfo Shares formerly represented by a Certificate and Uncertificated Shares) in exchange for the right to receive the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration at the Effective Time, provided that (A) each holder of a Certificate shall be required to surrender such Certificate (or a declaration of loss or non-receipt and, if applicable, indemnity in the required form and in compliance with Section 2.8) to the Exchange Agent and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled, and (B) each registered holder of VanceInfo Shares (including Uncertificated Shares) shall be required to submit to the Exchange Agent the letter of transmittal, duly executed and completed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent. If the Per Share Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the cancelled VanceInfo Share is registered, it shall be a condition of payment that (A) a share transfer form in respect of VanceInfo Shares represented by the Certificate so surrendered (if any) in a proper form to transfer the relevant VanceInfo Shares is delivered to the Exchange Agent prior to the Effective Time and (B) the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of such cancelled VanceInfo Shares and shall have established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Surviving Corporation that such Tax either has been paid or is not applicable. Upon the Effective Time, the registered holder of any VanceInfo Shares shall have no further rights in respect of any VanceInfo Shares, and each Certificate in respect of such VanceInfo Shares shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration, without interest, as contemplated by this Article II.

A-13

        (b)    Holders of VanceInfo ADSs.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 2.4(a) above, promptly after the Effective Time (and in any event within five business days thereafter), the Surviving Corporation and the Exchange Agent shall mail to the VanceInfo Depositary (i) a form of letter of transmittal (which shall specify the manner in which delivery of the Per ADS Merger Consideration to the VanceInfo Depositary shall be effected); and (ii) instructions for effecting the surrender of any and all Certificates representing VanceInfo Shares in the form of VanceInfo ADSs. The VanceInfo Depositary shall be entitled to receive the Per ADS Merger Consideration, without interest, for each VanceInfo Share held by the VanceInfo Depositary in respect of which a VanceInfo ADS has been issued (other than those VanceInfo ADSs reserved for future grants under the VanceInfo Share Incentive Plans) (the "Aggregate ADS Payment"), provided that the VanceInfo Depositary shall be required to surrender such Certificates it holds to the Exchange Agent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed and completed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent, and the Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. Promptly after the payment of the Aggregate ADS Payment (and in any event within five business days thereafter), and subject to the VanceInfo Deposit Agreement, the Surviving Corporation and the Exchange Agent shall direct the VanceInfo Depositary to mail to each registered holder of VanceInfo ADSs (other than holders of Excluded Shares) (A) a form of letter of transmittal (which shall specify the manner in which delivery of the Per ADS Merger Consideration to the registered holders of VanceInfo ADSs shall be effected); and (B) instructions for effecting the surrender of any and all ADRs (as such term is defined in the VanceInfo Deposit Agreement) evidencing VanceInfo ADSs. Each holder registered on the register of ADRs of VanceInfo of VanceInfo ADSs the Effective Time shall be entitled to receive the Per ADS Merger Consideration, without interest, for each such VanceInfo ADS converted into the right to receive the Per ADS Merger Consideration, provided that each holder of a ADR shall be required to surrender such ADR to the VanceInfo Depositary together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed and completed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the VanceInfo Depositary, and the ADRs so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled pursuant to the VanceInfo Deposit Agreement. Each ADR in respect of such cancelled VanceInfo ADS shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Per ADS Merger Consideration, without interest, as contemplated by this Article II. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 2.4(b), each registered holder of VanceInfo ADSs shall pay any applicable fees, charges and expenses provided under the VanceInfo Deposit Agreement and any and all Taxes under applicable Law in connection with distribution of the Per ADS Merger Consideration to VanceInfo ADS holders.

        (c)    Arrangements with Depositaries.    Each of HiSoft and VanceInfo will use reasonable efforts to enter into appropriate arrangements with the HiSoft Depositary and the VanceInfo Depositary to give effect to this Article II.

        Section 2.5 Transfer Books; No Further Ownership Rights.     Subject to Section 2.6, the Merger Consideration paid in respect of the cancellation of VanceInfo Shares and VanceInfo ADSs, respectively, in accordance with the terms of this Article II shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to VanceInfo Shares (including VanceInfo Shares previously represented by Certificates and Uncertificated Shares) or ADRs. At the Effective Time, the register of members of VanceInfo and the register of ADRs of VanceInfo shall be closed, and thereafter there shall be no further registration of transfers on such register of members or on such register of ADRs of any VanceInfo Shares or VanceInfo ADSs, respectively, that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. From and after the Effective Time, (i) the holders of VanceInfo Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) subject to the VanceInfo Deposit Agreement, the holders of ADRs that evidenced ownership of VanceInfo ADSs outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall cease to have any rights with respect to such VanceInfo Shares or VanceInfo ADSs, except as otherwise provided for herein or by applicable Law. Subject to

A-14

the last sentence of Section 2.6, if, at any time after the Effective Time, Certificates or ADRs are presented to the Surviving Corporation, or the VanceInfo Depositary, where applicable, for any reason, they shall be cancelled as provided in this Article II.

        Section 2.6 Termination of Exchange Fund.     Any portion of the Exchange Fund which remains undistributed at the date six months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to HiSoft and any holder of VanceInfo Share or ADRs that evidenced ownership of VanceInfo ADSs that were in each case issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than the Excluded Shares) who has not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to HiSoft for the Per Share Merger Consideration or the Per ADS Merger Consideration, as the case may be, exchangeable for such VanceInfo Shares or such ADRs, as applicable, to which such holder is entitled, without any interest on any portion thereof. Any such portion of the Exchange Fund remaining unclaimed by such holders of VanceInfo Shares at such time at which amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Entity shall, to the extent permitted by Law, become the property of HiSoft or its designee, free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

        Section 2.7 No Liability.     None of HiSoft, Merger Sub, VanceInfo, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any Merger Consideration from the Exchange Fund delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

        Section 2.8 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates.     If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit or declaration of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the Surviving Corporation or by the Exchange Agent, an indemnity or the posting by such Person of a bond in such reasonable amount as the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Exchange Agent will deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration with respect to VanceInfo Shares formerly represented thereby pursuant to this Agreement.

        Section 2.9 Withholding Rights.     Each of the Surviving Corporation, HiSoft, VanceInfo and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement 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 Tax Law of the United States, the PRC, or other applicable jurisdictions. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Entity by the Surviving Corporation, HiSoft, VanceInfo or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to (a) the holder of VanceInfo Shares or VanceInfo ADSs in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Surviving Corporation, HiSoft or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be, (b) HiSoft in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by VanceInfo with respect any Termination Fee paid by VanceInfo, and (c) VanceInfo in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by HiSoft with respect to any Termination Fee paid by HiSoft.

        Section 2.10 Agreement of Fair Value.     HiSoft, Merger Sub and VanceInfo respectively agree that the Per Share Merger Consideration represents the fair value of VanceInfo Shares for the purposes of Section 238(8) of the Cayman Companies Law.

        Section 2.11 Second Step Merger.     The Parties hereto agree that, if the Parties mutually agree, the Parties will use their reasonable best efforts to amend this Agreement to provide that the Surviving Corporation will merge with and into a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of HiSoft immediately following the Effective Time (the "Second Step Merger "), and the Parties further agree that in such event, each Party will waive any breach of the representations and warranties in this Agreement to the extent resulting from such Second Step Merger.

VanceInfo and each VanceInfo Material Subsidiary is duly qualified or licensed to do business in each jurisdiction in which the property owned, leased or operated by it or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification or licensing necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or licensed would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a VanceInfo Material Adverse Effect. Accurate and complete copies of the memorandum and articles of association of VanceInfo, as in effect as of the date of this Agreement, have been publicly filed or furnished by VanceInfo as part of the VanceInfo SEC Reports.

        (b)   Section 3.1(b) of the VanceInfo Disclosure Schedule sets forth a list of all Subsidiaries of VanceInfo.

No Subsidiary of VanceInfo is subject to the reporting requirements of Sections 13(a) and 15(d) of the Exchange Act. The VanceInfo SEC Reports did not contain, when filed or furnished (or, if amended or superseded by a filing prior to the date hereof, on the date of such filing), any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated or incorporated by reference therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Section 9.4 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

        (a)   This Agreement shall be 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 other than the State of New York, except that the following matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be construed, performed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the Cayman Islands in respect of which the Parties hereby irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Cayman Islands: the Merger, the vesting of the rights, property, choses in action, business, undertaking, goodwill, benefits, immunities and privileges, contracts, obligations, claims, debts and liabilities of the Merger Sub in VanceInfo, the cancellation of VanceInfo Shares in consideration of the issue of HiSoft Shares, the fiduciary or other duties of the VanceInfo Board and the HiSoft Board; and the internal corporate affairs of VanceInfo and HiSoft. Except as provided in the prior sentence, any Proceeding (whether sounding in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the other Transaction Agreements or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including any Proceeding against any VanceInfo Related Party or HiSoft Related Party, shall be brought solely and exclusively in any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in the County of New York in the State of New York. Each of the Parties agrees that a final judgment (subject to any appeals therefrom) in any such Proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Each Party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in respect of any such Proceeding, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such Proceeding in any such court in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.4(a). Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such Proceeding in any such court. Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.3. Nothing in this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Agreements will affect the right of any Party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law. The consent to jurisdiction set forth in this Section 9.4 shall not constitute a general consent to service of process in the State of New York and shall have no effect for any purpose except as provided in this Section. The Parties agree that a final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

        (b)   EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER TRANSACTION AGREEMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. Each Party certifies and acknowledges that (i) no representative, agent or attorney of any other Party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other Party would not, in the event of a Proceeding, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver, (ii) each Party understands and has considered the implications of this waiver, (iii) each Party makes this waiver voluntarily, and (iv) each Party has been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 9.4(b).

A-64

upon any other person any rights, benefits or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement. The rights granted under this Agreement to VanceInfo shall be enforceable solely by VanceInfo in its sole and absolute discretion (and VanceInfo shall have the sole right to enforce any such rights and pursue any damages or other relief related to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby on behalf of holders of VanceInfo Shares and VanceInfo ADSs), and the rights granted under this Agreement to HiSoft shall be enforceable solely by HiSoft in its sole and absolute discretion (and HiSoft shall have the sole right to enforce any such rights and pursue any damages or other relief related to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby on behalf of holders of HiSoft Shares and HiSoft ADSs).

        Section 9.7 Severability.     The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any person or any circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable, (a) a suitable and equitable provision shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances shall not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application thereof, in any other jurisdiction.

        Section 9.8 Specific Performance.     Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that, in the event of any breach of, or any failure to perform, any specific provision of this Agreement prior to or at the Effective Time, the non-breaching party would be irreparably and immediately harmed and could not be made whole by monetary damages. It is accordingly agreed that each of the Parties shall (i) be entitled, in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled at law or in equity, to compel specific performance of any specific provision of this Agreement or to obtain injunctive relief to prevent breaches of any specific provision of this Agreement, (ii) waive, in any action against it for specific performance or injunctive relief, the defense of the adequacy of a remedy at law, and (iii) waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with the obtaining of any such specific performance or injunctive relief. For the avoidance of doubt, each of Parties shall be entitled to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches of or enforce compliance with all the agreements and covenants contained in this agreement, including those agreements and covenants of the other Party or Parties that require the other Party or Parties to (x) use its or their reasonable best efforts to cause the Closing to occur as soon as practicable and (y) effect the Merger. A Party's pursuit of specific performance or injunctive relief at any time shall not be deemed an election of remedies or waiver of the right to pursue any other right or remedy to which such Party may be entitled, including the right to pursue remedies for liabilities or damages incurred or suffered by such Party in the case of a breach of this Agreement.

        Section 9.9 Amendment.     This Agreement may be amended by action taken by VanceInfo, HiSoft and Merger Sub at any time before or after approval of the Merger by the earlier of the Required VanceInfo Vote or the Required HiSoft Vote but, after any such approval, no amendment shall be made which requires the approval of such shareholders under applicable Law without such approval. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of the Parties.

        Section 9.10 Extension; Waiver.     At any time prior to the Effective Time, each Party hereto (for these purposes, HiSoft and Merger Sub shall together be deemed one Party and VanceInfo shall be deemed the other Party) may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other Party, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other Party contained herein or in any document, certificate or writing delivered pursuant hereto, or (c) waive compliance by the other Party with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein.

A-65

Any agreement on the part of either Party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such Party. The failure of either Party hereto to assert any of its rights hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of such rights.

Subject to the provisions, if any, in the Memorandum (and to any direction that may be given by the Company in general meeting) and without prejudice to any rights attached to any existing Shares, the Directors may allot, issue, grant options over or otherwise dispose of Shares (including fractions of a Share) with or without preferred, deferred or other rights or restrictions, whether in regard to Dividend or other distribution, voting, return of capital or otherwise and to such persons, at such times and on such other terms as they think proper, and may also (subject to the Statute and the Articles) vary such rights.

The Company shall maintain or cause to be maintained the Register of Members in accordance with the Statute.

The Directors may also determine which register of Members shall constitute the principal register and which shall constitute the branch register or registers, and to vary such determination from time to time.

12

Closing Register of Members or Fixing Record Date

12.1

For the purpose of determining Members entitled to notice of, or to vote at any meeting of Members or any adjournment thereof, or Members entitled to receive payment of any Dividend or other distribution, or in order to make a determination of Members for any other purpose, the Directors may provide that the Register of Members shall be closed for transfers for a stated period which shall not in any case exceed forty days.

12.2

In lieu of, or apart from, closing the Register of Members, the Directors may fix in advance or arrears a date as the record date for any such determination of Members entitled to notice of, or to vote at any meeting of the Members or any adjournment thereof, or for the purpose of determining the Members entitled to receive payment of any Dividend or other distribution, or in order to make a determination of Members for any other purpose.

12.3

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 or other distribution, the date on which notice of the meeting is sent or the date on which the resolution of the Directors resolving to pay such Dividend or other distribution is passed, 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.

13

Certificates for Shares

13.1

A Member shall only be entitled to a share certificate if the Directors resolve that share certificates shall be issued. Share certificates representing Shares, if any, shall be in such form as the Directors may determine. Share certificates shall be signed by one or more Directors or other person authorised by the Directors. The Directors may authorise certificates to be issued

A-A1-9

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 the Articles no new certificate shall be issued until the former certificate representing a like number of relevant Shares shall have been surrendered and cancelled.

13.2

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.

13.3

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 Directors may prescribe, and (in the case of defacement or wearing out) upon delivery of the old certificate.

13.4

Every share certificate sent in accordance with the Articles will be sent at the risk of the Member or other person entitled to the certificate. The Company will not be responsible for any share certificate lost or delayed in the course of delivery.

14

Transfer of Shares

14.1

Subject to Article 3.1, Shares are transferable subject to the consent of the Directors who may, in their absolute discretion, decline to register any transfer of Shares without giving any reason. If the Directors refuse to register a transfer they shall notify the transferee within two months of such refusal.

14.2

The instrument of transfer of any Share shall be in writing and shall be executed by or on behalf of the transferor (and if the Directors so require, signed by or on behalf of the transferee). The transferor shall be deemed to remain the holder of a Share until the name of the transferee is entered in the Register of Members.

15

Redemption, Repurchase and Surrender of Shares

15.1

Subject to the provisions of the Statute 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. The redemption of such Shares shall be effected in such manner and upon such other terms as the Company may, by Special Resolution, determine before the issue of the Shares.

15.2

Subject to the provisions of the Statute, the Company may purchase its own Shares (including any redeemable Shares) in such manner and on such other terms as the Directors may agree with the relevant Member.

15.3

The Company may make a payment in respect of the redemption or purchase of its own Shares in any manner permitted by the Statute, including out of capital.

15.4

The Directors may accept the surrender for no consideration of any fully paid Share.

16

Treasury Shares

16.1

The Directors may, prior to the purchase, redemption or surrender of any Share, determine that such Share shall be held as a Treasury Share.

16.2

The Directors may determine to cancel a Treasury Share or transfer a Treasury Share on such terms as they think proper (including, without limitation, for nil consideration).

17

Variation of Rights of Shares

17.1

If at any time the share capital of the Company is divided into different classes of Shares, all or any of the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the

A-A1-10

Shares of that class) may, whether or not the Company is being wound up, be varied without the consent of the holders of the issued Shares of that class where such variation is considered by the Directors not to have a material adverse effect upon such rights; otherwise, any such variation shall be made only with the consent in writing of the holders of not less than two thirds of the issued Shares of that class, or with the sanction of a resolution passed by a majority of not less than two thirds of the votes cast at a separate meeting of the holders of the Shares of that class. For the avoidance of doubt, the Directors reserve the right, notwithstanding that any such variation may not have a material adverse effect, to obtain consent from the holders of Shares of the relevant class. To any such meeting all the provisions of the Articles relating to general meetings shall apply mutatis mutandis, except that the necessary quorum shall be one person holding or representing by proxy at least one third of the issued Shares of the class and that any holder of Shares of the class present in person or by proxy may demand a poll.

17.2

For the purposes of a separate class meeting, the Directors may treat two or more or all the classes of Shares as forming one class of Shares if the Directors consider that such class of Shares would be affected in the same way by the proposals under consideration, but in any other case shall treat them as separate classes of Shares.

17.3

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.

18

Commission on Sale of Shares

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) or procuring or agreeing to procure subscriptions (whether absolutely or conditionally) for any Shares. 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.

19

Non Recognition of Trusts

The Company shall not be bound by or compelled to recognise in any way (even when notified) any equitable, contingent, future or partial interest in any Share, or (except only as is otherwise provided by the Articles or the Statute) any other rights in respect of any Share other than an absolute right to the entirety thereof in the holder.

20

Lien on Shares

20.1

The Company shall have a first and paramount lien on all Shares (whether fully paid-up or not) 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) by such Member or his estate, either alone or jointly with any other person, whether a Member or not, but the Directors 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 thereon. The Company's lien on a Share shall also extend to any amount payable in respect of that Share.

20.2

The Company may sell, in such manner as the Directors think fit, any Shares on which the Company has a lien, if a sum in respect of which the lien exists is presently payable, and is not paid within fourteen clear days after notice has been received or deemed to have been received by the holder of the Shares, or to the person entitled to it in consequence of the death or

A-A1-11

bankruptcy of the holder, demanding payment and stating that if the notice is not complied with the Shares may be sold.

20.3

To give effect to any such sale the Directors may authorise any person to execute an instrument of transfer of the Shares sold to, or in accordance with the directions of, the purchaser. The purchaser or his nominee 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 title to the Shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the sale or the exercise of the Company's power of sale under the Articles.

20.4

The net proceeds of such sale after payment of costs, shall be applied in payment of such part of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is presently payable and any balance shall (subject to a like lien for sums not presently payable as existed upon the Shares before the sale) be paid to the person entitled to the Shares at the date of the sale.

21

Call on Shares

21.1

Subject to the terms of the allotment and issue of any Shares, the Directors may make calls upon the Members in respect of any monies unpaid on their Shares (whether in respect of par value or premium), and each Member shall (subject to receiving at least fourteen clear days' notice specifying the time or times of payment) pay to the Company at the time or times so specified the amount called on the Shares. A call may be revoked or postponed, in whole or in part, 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.

21.2

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

21.3

The joint holders of a Share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all calls in respect thereof.

21.4

If a call remains unpaid after it has become due and payable, the person from whom it is due shall pay interest on the amount unpaid from the day it became due and payable until it is paid at such rate as the Directors may determine (and in addition all expenses that have been incurred by the Company by reason of such non-payment), but the Directors may waive payment of the interest or expenses wholly or in part.

21.5

An amount payable in respect of a Share on issue or 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 the Articles shall apply as if that amount had become due and payable by virtue of a call.

21.6

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

21.7

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.

21.8

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

A-A1-12

22

Forfeiture of Shares

22.1

If a call or instalment of a call remains unpaid after it has become due and payable the Directors may give to the person from whom it is due not less than fourteen clear days' notice requiring payment of the amount unpaid together with any interest which may have accrued and any expenses incurred by the Company by reason of such non-payment. The notice shall specify where payment is to be made and shall state that if the notice is not complied with the Shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited.

22.2

If the notice is not complied with, any Share in respect of which it was given may, before the payment required by the notice has been made, be forfeited by a resolution of the Directors. Such forfeiture shall include all Dividends, other distributions or other monies payable in respect of the forfeited Share and not paid before the forfeiture.

22.3

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

22.4

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 at such rate as the Directors may determine, 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.

22.5

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 facts stated in it 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 sold or otherwise 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.

22.6

The provisions of the 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.

23

Transmission of Shares

23.1

If a Member dies the survivor or survivors (where he was a joint holder) or his legal personal representatives (where he was a sole holder), shall be the only persons recognised by the Company as having any title to his Shares. The estate of a deceased Member is not thereby released from any liability in respect of any Share, for which he was a joint or sole holder.

23.2

Any person becoming entitled to a Share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution of a Member (or in any other way than by transfer) may, upon such evidence being produced as may be required by the Directors, elect, by a notice in writing sent by him to the Company, either to become the holder of such Share or to have some person nominated by him registered as the holder of such Share. If he elects to have another person registered as the holder of such Share he shall sign an instrument of transfer of that Share to that person. The Directors shall, in either case, have the same right to decline or suspend

A-A1-13

registration as they would have had in the case of a transfer of the Share by the relevant Member before his death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution, as the case may be.

23.3

A person becoming entitled to a Share by reason of the death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution of a Member (or in any other case than by transfer) shall be entitled to the same Dividends, other distributions and other advantages to which he would be entitled if he were the holder of such Share. However, he shall not, before becoming a Member in respect of a Share, be entitled in respect of it to exercise any right conferred by membership in relation to general meetings of the Company and the Directors may at any time give notice requiring any such person to elect either to be registered himself or to have some person nominated by him be registered as the holder of the Share (but the Directors shall, in either case, have the same right to decline or suspend registration as they would have had in the case of a transfer of the Share by the relevant Member before his death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution or any other case than by transfer, as the case may be). If the notice is not complied with within ninety days of being received or deemed to be received (as determined pursuant to the Articles) the Directors may thereafter withhold payment of all Dividends, other distributions, bonuses or other monies payable in respect of the Share until the requirements of the notice have been complied with.

Offices and Places of Business

Subject to the provisions of the Statute, the Company may by resolution of the Directors change the location of its Registered Office. The Company may, in addition to its Registered Office, maintain such other offices or places of business as the Directors determine.

26

General Meetings

26.1

All general meetings other than annual general meetings shall be called extraordinary general meetings.

26.2

The Company may, but shall not (unless required by the Statute) be obliged to, in each year hold a general meeting as its annual general meeting, and shall specify the meeting as such in the notices calling it. Any annual general meeting shall be held at such time and place as the Directors shall appoint and if no other time and place is prescribed by them, it shall be held at the Registered Office on the second Wednesday in December of each year at ten o'clock in the morning. At these meetings the report of the Directors (if any) shall be presented.

26.3

The Directors may call general meetings, and they shall on a Members' requisition forthwith proceed to convene an extraordinary general meeting of the Company.

26.4

A Members' requisition is a requisition of Members holding at the date of deposit of the requisition not less than ten per cent. in par value of the issued Shares which as at that date carry the right to vote at general meetings of the Company.

26.5

The Members' requisition must state the objects of the meeting and must be signed by the requisitionists and deposited at the Registered Office, and may consist of several documents in like form each signed by one or more requisitionists.

26.6

If there are no Directors as at the date of the deposit of the Members' requisition or if the Directors do not within twenty-one days from the date of the deposit of the Members' requisition duly proceed to convene a general meeting to be held within a further twenty-one days, the requisitionists, or any of them representing more than one-half of the total voting rights of all of the requisitionists, may themselves convene a general meeting, but any meeting so convened shall be held no later than the day which falls three months after the expiration of the said twenty-one day period.

26.7

A general meeting convened as aforesaid by requisitionists shall be convened in the same manner as nearly as possible as that in which general meetings are to be convened by Directors.

27

Notice of General Meetings

27.1

At least five clear days' notice shall be given of any general meeting. Every notice shall specify the place, the day and the hour of the meeting and the general nature of the business to be conducted at the general meeting and shall be given in the manner hereinafter mentioned or in such other manner if any as may be prescribed by the Company, provided that a general meeting of the Company shall, whether or not the notice specified in this Article has been given and whether or not the provisions of the Articles regarding general meetings have been complied with, be deemed to have been duly convened if it is so agreed:

I.

in the case of an annual general meeting, by all of the Members entitled to attend and vote thereat; and



II.

in the case of an extraordinary general meeting, by a majority in number of the Members having a right to attend and vote at the meeting, together holding not less than ninety five per cent. in par value of the Shares giving that right.

A-A1-15

27.2

The accidental omission to give notice of a general meeting to, or the non receipt of notice of a general meeting by, any person entitled to receive such notice shall not invalidate the proceedings of that general meeting.

28

Proceedings at General Meetings

28.1

No business shall be transacted at any general meeting unless a quorum is present. Two Members being individuals present in person or by proxy or if a corporation or other non-natural person by its duly authorised representative or proxy shall be a quorum unless the Company has only one Member entitled to vote at such general meeting in which case the quorum shall be that one Member present in person or by proxy or (in the case of a corporation or other non-natural person) by its duly authorised representative or proxy.

28.2

A person may participate at a general meeting by conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all the persons participating in the meeting can communicate with each other. Participation by a person in a general meeting in this manner is treated as presence in person at that meeting.

28.3

A resolution (including a Special Resolution) in writing (in one or more counterparts) signed by or on behalf of all of the Members for the time being entitled to receive notice of and to attend and vote at general meetings (or, being corporations or other non-natural persons, signed by their duly authorised representatives) shall be as valid and effective as if the resolution had been passed at a general meeting of the Company duly convened and held.

28.4

If a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for the meeting to commence or if during such a meeting a quorum ceases to be present, the meeting, if convened upon a Members' requisition, shall be dissolved and in any other case it shall stand adjourned to the same day in the next week at the same time and/or place or to such other day, time and/or place as the Directors may determine, and if at the adjourned meeting a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for the meeting to commence, the Members present shall be a quorum.

28.5

The Directors may, at any time prior to the time appointed for the meeting to commence, appoint any person to act as chairman of a general meeting of the Company or, if the Directors do not make any such appointment, the chairman, if any, of the board of Directors shall preside as chairman at such general meeting. If there is no such chairman, or if he shall not be present within fifteen minutes after the time appointed for the meeting to commence, or is unwilling to act, the Directors present shall elect one of their number to be chairman of the meeting.

28.6

If no Director is willing to act as chairman or if no Director is present within fifteen minutes after the time appointed for the meeting to commence, the Members present shall choose one of their number to be chairman of the meeting.

28.7

The chairman may, with the consent of a meeting at which a quorum is present (and shall if so directed by the meeting) adjourn the meeting from time to time and from place to place, but no business shall be transacted at any adjourned meeting other than the business left unfinished at the meeting from which the adjournment took place.

28.8

When a general meeting is adjourned for thirty days or more, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given as in the case of an original meeting. Otherwise it shall not be necessary to give any such notice of an adjourned meeting.

28.9

A resolution put to the vote of the meeting shall be decided on a show of hands unless before, or on the declaration of the result of, the show of hands, the chairman demands a poll, or any other Member or Members collectively present in person or by proxy (or in the case of a corporation or other non-natural person, by its duly authorised representative or proxy) and

A-A1-16

holding at least ten per cent. in par value of the Shares giving a right to attend and vote at the meeting demand a poll.

28.10

Unless a poll is duly demanded and the demand is not withdrawn a declaration by the chairman that a resolution has been carried or carried unanimously, or by a particular majority, or lost or not carried by a particular majority, an entry to that effect in the minutes of the proceedings of the meeting shall be conclusive evidence of that fact without proof of the number or proportion of the votes recorded in favour of or against such resolution.

28.11

The demand for a poll may be withdrawn.

28.12

Except on a poll demanded on the election of a chairman or on a question of adjournment, a poll shall be taken as the chairman directs, and the result of the poll shall be deemed to be the resolution of the general meeting at which the poll was demanded.

28.13

A poll demanded on the election of a chairman or on a question of adjournment shall be taken forthwith. A poll demanded on any other question shall be taken at such date, time and place as the chairman of the general meeting directs, and any business other than that upon which a poll has been demanded or is contingent thereon may proceed pending the taking of the poll.

28.14

In the case of an equality of votes, whether on a show of hands or on a poll, the chairman shall be entitled to a second or casting vote.

29

Votes of Members

29.1

Subject to any rights or restrictions attached to any Shares, on a show of hands every Member who (being an individual) is present in person or by proxy or, if a corporation or other non-natural person is present by its duly authorised representative or by proxy, shall have one vote and on a poll every Member present in any such manner shall have one vote for every Share of which he is the holder.

29.2

In the case of joint holders the vote of the senior holder who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy (or, in the case of a corporation or other non-natural person, by its duly authorised representative or proxy), shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders, and seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names of the holders stand in the Register of Members.

29.3

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.

29.4

No person shall be entitled to vote at any general meeting unless he is registered as a Member on the record date for such meeting nor unless all calls or other monies then payable by him in respect of Shares have been paid.

29.5

No objection shall be raised as 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 in accordance with this Article shall be referred to the chairman whose decision shall be final and conclusive.

29.6

On a poll or on a show of hands votes may be cast either personally or by proxy (or in the case of a corporation or other non-natural person by its duly authorised representative or 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 and shall specify the number of Shares in respect of which each proxy is entitled to exercise the related votes.

A-A1-17

29.7

On a poll, 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 a Share or some or all of the Shares in respect of which he is appointed.

30

Proxies

30.1

The instrument appointing a proxy shall be in writing and shall be executed under the hand of the appointor or of his attorney duly authorised in writing, or, if the appointor is a corporation or other non natural person, under the hand of its duly authorised representative. A proxy need not be a Member.

30.2

The Directors may, in the notice convening any meeting or adjourned meeting, or in an instrument of proxy sent out by the Company, specify the manner by which the instrument appointing a proxy shall be deposited and the place and the time (being not later than the time appointed for the commencement of the meeting or adjourned meeting to which the proxy relates) at which the instrument appointing a proxy shall be deposited. In the absence of any such direction from the Directors in the notice convening any meeting or adjourned meeting or in an instrument of proxy sent out by the Company, the instrument appointing a proxy shall be deposited physically at the Registered Office not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for the meeting or adjourned meeting to commence at which the person named in the instrument proposes to vote.

30.3

The chairman may in any event at his discretion declare that an instrument of proxy shall be deemed to have been duly deposited. An instrument of proxy that is not deposited in the manner permitted, or which has not been declared to have been duly deposited by the chairman, shall be invalid.

30.4

The instrument appointing a proxy may be in any usual or common form (or such other form as the Directors may approve) and may be expressed to be for a particular meeting or any adjournment thereof or generally until revoked. An instrument appointing a proxy shall be deemed to include the power to demand or join or concur in demanding a poll.

30.5

Votes given in accordance with the terms of an instrument of proxy shall be valid notwithstanding the previous death or insanity of the principal or revocation of the proxy or of the authority under which the proxy was executed, or the transfer of the Share in respect of which the proxy is given unless notice in writing of such death, insanity, revocation or transfer was received by the Company at the Registered Office before the commencement of the general meeting, or adjourned meeting at which it is sought to use the proxy.

31

Corporate Members

Any corporation or other non-natural person which is a Member may in accordance with its constitutional documents, or in the absence of such provision by resolution of its directors or other governing body, authorise such person as it thinks fit to act as its representative at any meeting of the Company or of any class of Members, and the person so authorised shall be entitled to exercise the same powers on behalf of the corporation which he represents as the corporation could exercise if it were an individual Member.

A-A1-18

32

Shares that May Not be Voted

Shares in the Company that are beneficially owned by the Company shall not be voted, directly or indirectly, at any meeting and shall not be counted in determining the total number of outstanding Shares at any given time.

33

Directors

There shall be a board of Directors consisting of not less than one person (exclusive of alternate Directors) provided however that the Company may by Ordinary Resolution increase or reduce the limits in the number of Directors. The first Directors of the Company shall be determined in writing by, or appointed by a resolution of, the Subscriber.

34

Powers of Directors

34.1

Subject to the provisions of the Statute, the Memorandum and the Articles and to any directions given by Special Resolution, the business of the Company shall be managed by the Directors who may exercise all the powers of the Company. No alteration of the Memorandum or Articles and no such direction shall invalidate any prior act of the Directors which would have been valid if that alteration had not been made or that direction had not been given. A duly convened meeting of Directors at which a quorum is present may exercise all powers exercisable by the Directors.

34.2

All cheques, promissory notes, drafts, bills of exchange and other negotiable or transferable instruments and all receipts for monies paid to the Company shall be signed, drawn, accepted, endorsed or otherwise executed as the case may be in such manner as the Directors shall determine by resolution.

34.3

The Directors on behalf of the Company may pay a gratuity or pension or allowance on retirement to any Director who has held any other salaried office or place of profit with the Company or to his widow or dependants and may make contributions to any fund and pay premiums for the purchase or provision of any such gratuity, pension or allowance.

34.4

The Directors may exercise all the powers of the Company to borrow money and to mortgage or charge its undertaking, property and assets (present and future) and uncalled capital or any part thereof and to issue debentures, debenture stock, mortgages, bonds and other such securities whether outright or as security for any debt, liability or obligation of the Company or of any third party.

35

Appointment and Removal of Directors

35.1

The Company may by Ordinary Resolution appoint any person to be a Director or may by Ordinary Resolution remove any Director.

35.2

The Directors may appoint any person to be a Director, either to fill a vacancy or as an additional Director provided that the appointment does not cause the number of Directors to exceed any number fixed by or in accordance with the Articles as the maximum number of Directors.

36

Vacation of Office of Director

The office of a Director shall be vacated if:

I.

the Director gives notice in writing to the Company that he resigns the office of Director; or



II.

the Director absents himself (for the avoidance of doubt, without being represented by proxy or an alternate Director appointed by him) from three consecutive meetings of the

A-A1-19

board of Directors without special leave of absence from the Directors, and the Directors pass a resolution that he has by reason of such absence vacated office; or

III.

the Director dies, becomes bankrupt or makes any arrangement or composition with his creditors generally; or



IV.

the Director is found to be or becomes of unsound mind; or



V.

all of the other Directors (being not less than two in number) determine that he should be removed as a Director, either by a resolution passed by all of the other Directors at a meeting of the Directors duly convened and held in accordance with the Articles or by a resolution in writing signed by all of the other Directors.

37

Proceedings of Directors

37.1

The quorum for the transaction of the business of the Directors may be fixed by the Directors, and unless so fixed shall be two if there are two or more Directors, and shall be one if there is only one Director. A person who holds office as an alternate Director shall, if his appointor is not present, be counted in the quorum. A Director who also acts as an alternate Director shall, if his appointor is not present, count twice towards the quorum.

37.2

Subject to the provisions of the Articles, the Directors may regulate their proceedings as they think fit. Questions arising at any meeting shall be decided by a majority of votes. A Director who is also an alternate Director shall be entitled in the absence of his appointor to a separate vote on behalf of his appointor in addition to his own vote.

37.3

A person may participate in a meeting of the Directors or committee of Directors by conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all the persons participating in the meeting can communicate with each other at the same time. Participation by a person in a meeting in this manner is treated as presence in person at that meeting. Unless otherwise determined by the Directors the meeting shall be deemed to be held at the place where the chairman is located at the start of the meeting.

37.4

A resolution in writing (in one or more counterparts) signed by all the Directors or all the members of a committee of the Directors or, in the case of a resolution in writing relating to the removal of any Director or the vacation of office by any Director, all of the Directors other than the Director who is the subject of such resolution (an alternate Director being entitled to sign such a resolution on behalf of his appointor and if such alternate Director is also a Director, being entitled to sign such resolution both on behalf of his appointer and in his capacity as a Director) shall be as valid and effectual as if it had been passed at a meeting of the Directors, or committee of Directors as the case may be, duly convened and held.

37.5

A Director or alternate Director may, or other officer of the Company on the direction of a Director or alternate Director shall, call a meeting of the Directors by at least two days' notice in writing to every Director and alternate Director which notice shall set forth the general nature of the business to be considered unless notice is waived by all the Directors (or their alternates) either at, before or after the meeting is held. To any such notice of a meeting of the Directors all the provisions of the Articles relating to the giving of notices by the Company to the Members shall apply mutatis mutandis.

37.6

The continuing Directors (or a sole continuing Director, as the case may be) may act notwithstanding any vacancy in their body, but if and so long as their number is reduced below the number fixed by or pursuant to the Articles as the necessary quorum of Directors the continuing Directors or Director may act for the purpose of increasing the number of Directors to be equal to such fixed number, or of summoning a general meeting of the Company, but for no other purpose.

A-A1-20

37.7

The Directors may elect a chairman of their board and determine the period for which he is to hold office; but if no such chairman is elected, or if at any meeting the chairman is not present within five minutes after the time appointed for the meeting to commence, the Directors present may choose one of their number to be chairman of the meeting.

37.8

All acts done by any meeting of the Directors or of a committee of the Directors (including any person acting as an alternate Director) shall, notwithstanding that it is afterwards discovered that there was some defect in the appointment of any Director or alternate Director, and/or that they or any of them were disqualified, and/or had vacated their office and/or were not entitled to vote, be as valid as if every such person had been duly appointed and/or not disqualified to be a Director or alternate Director and/or had not vacated their office and/or had been entitled to vote, as the case may be.

37.9

A Director but not an alternate Director may be represented at any meetings of the board of Directors by a proxy appointed in writing by him. The proxy shall count towards the quorum and the vote of the proxy shall for all purposes be deemed to be that of the appointing Director.

38

Presumption of Assent

A Director or alternate Director who is present at a meeting of the board of Directors at which action on any Company matter is taken shall be presumed to have assented to the action taken unless his dissent shall be entered in the minutes of the meeting or unless he shall file his written dissent from such action with the person acting as the chairman or secretary of the meeting before the adjournment thereof or shall forward such dissent by registered post to such person immediately after the adjournment of the meeting. Such right to dissent shall not apply to a Director or alternate Director who voted in favour of such action.

39

Directors' Interests

39.1

A Director or alternate Director may hold any other office or place of profit under the Company (other than the office of Auditor) in conjunction with his office of Director for such period and on such terms as to remuneration and otherwise as the Directors may determine.

39.2

A Director or alternate Director may act by himself or by, through or on behalf of his firm in a professional capacity for the Company and he or his firm shall be entitled to remuneration for professional services as if he were not a Director or alternate Director.

39.3

A Director or alternate Director may be or become a director or other officer of or otherwise interested in any company promoted by the Company or in which the Company may be interested as a shareholder, a contracting party or otherwise, and no such Director or alternate Director shall be accountable to the Company for any remuneration or other benefits received by him as a director or officer of, or from his interest in, such other company.

39.4

No person shall be disqualified from the office of Director or alternate Director or prevented by such office from contracting with the Company, either as vendor, purchaser or otherwise, nor shall any such contract or any contract or transaction entered into by or on behalf of the Company in which any Director or alternate Director shall be in any way interested be or be liable to be avoided, nor shall any Director or alternate Director so contracting or being so interested be liable to account to the Company for any profit realised by or arising in connection with any such contract or transaction by reason of such Director or alternate Director holding office or of the fiduciary relationship thereby established. A Director (or his alternate Director in his absence) shall be at liberty to vote in respect of any contract or transaction in which he is interested provided that the nature of the interest of any Director or alternate Director in any such contract or transaction shall be disclosed by him at or prior to its consideration and any vote thereon.

A-A1-21

39.5

A general notice that a Director or alternate Director is a shareholder, director, officer or employee of any specified firm or company and is to be regarded as interested in any transaction with such firm or company shall be sufficient disclosure for the purposes of voting on a resolution in respect of a contract or transaction in which he has an interest, and after such general notice it shall not be necessary to give special notice relating to any particular transaction.

40

Minutes

The Directors shall cause minutes to be made in books kept for the purpose of all appointments of officers made by the Directors, all proceedings at meetings of the Company or the holders of any class of Shares and of the Directors, and of committees of the Directors, including the names of the Directors or alternate Directors present at each meeting.

41

Delegation of Directors' Powers

41.1

The Directors may delegate any of their powers, authorities and discretions, including the power to sub-delegate, to any committee consisting of one or more Directors. They may also delegate to any managing director or any Director holding any other executive office such of their powers, authorities and discretions as they consider desirable to be exercised by him provided that an alternate Director may not act as managing director and the appointment of a managing director shall be revoked forthwith if he ceases to be a Director. Any such delegation may be made subject to any conditions the Directors may impose and either collaterally with or to the exclusion of their own powers and any such delegation may be revoked or altered by the Directors. Subject to any such conditions, the proceedings of a committee of Directors shall be governed by the Articles regulating the proceedings of Directors, so far as they are capable of applying.

41.2

The Directors may establish any committees, local boards or agencies or appoint any person to be a manager or agent for managing the affairs of the Company and may appoint any person to be a member of such committees, local boards or agencies. Any such appointment may be made subject to any conditions the Directors may impose, and either collaterally with or to the exclusion of their own powers and any such appointment may be revoked or altered by the Directors. Subject to any such conditions, the proceedings of any such committee, local board or agency shall be governed by the Articles regulating the proceedings of Directors, so far as they are capable of applying.

41.3

The Directors may by power of attorney or otherwise appoint any person to be the agent of the Company on such conditions as the Directors may determine, provided that the delegation is not to the exclusion of their own powers and may be revoked by the Directors at any time.

41.4

The Directors may by power of attorney or otherwise appoint any company, firm, person or body of persons, whether nominated directly or indirectly by the Directors, to be the attorney or authorised signatory of the Company for such purpose and with such powers, authorities and discretions (not exceeding those vested in or exercisable by the Directors under the Articles) and for such period and subject to such conditions as they may think fit, and any such powers of attorney or other appointment may contain such provisions for the protection and convenience of persons dealing with any such attorneys or authorised signatories as the Directors may think fit and may also authorise any such attorney or authorised signatory to delegate all or any of the powers, authorities and discretions vested in him.

41.5

The Directors may appoint such officers of the Company (including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, any secretary) as they consider necessary on such terms, at such remuneration and to perform such duties, and subject to such provisions as to disqualification and removal as the Directors may think fit. Unless otherwise specified in the terms of his

A-A1-22

appointment an officer of the Company may be removed by resolution of the Directors or Members. An officer of the Company may vacate his office at any time if he gives notice in writing to the Company that he resigns his office.

42

Alternate Directors

42.1

Any Director (but not an alternate Director) may by writing appoint any other Director, or any other person willing to act, to be an alternate Director and by writing may remove from office an alternate Director so appointed by him.

42.2

An alternate Director shall be entitled to receive notice of all meetings of Directors and of all meetings of committees of Directors of which his appointor is a member, to attend and vote at every such meeting at which the Director appointing him is not personally present, to sign any written resolution of the Directors, and generally to perform all the functions of his appointor as a Director in his absence.

42.3

An alternate Director shall cease to be an alternate Director if his appointor ceases to be a Director.

42.4

Any appointment or removal of an alternate Director shall be by notice to the Company signed by the Director making or revoking the appointment or in any other manner approved by the Directors.

43

No Minimum Shareholding

The Company in general meeting may fix a minimum shareholding required to be held by a Director, but unless and until such a shareholding qualification is fixed a Director is not required to hold Shares.

44

Remuneration of Directors

44.1

The remuneration to be paid to the Directors, if any, shall be such remuneration as the Directors shall determine. The Directors shall also be entitled to be paid all travelling, hotel and other expenses properly incurred by them in connection with their attendance at meetings of Directors or committees of Directors, or general meetings of the Company, or separate meetings of the holders of any class of Shares or debentures of the Company, or otherwise in connection with the business of the Company or the discharge of their duties as a Director, or to receive a fixed allowance in respect thereof as may be determined by the Directors, or a combination partly of one such method and partly the other.

44.2

The Directors may by resolution approve additional remuneration to any Director for any services which in the opinion of the Directors go beyond his ordinary routine work as a Director. Any fees paid to a Director who is also counsel, attorney or solicitor to the Company, or otherwise serves it in a professional capacity shall be in addition to his remuneration as a Director.

45

Seal

45.1

The Company may, if the Directors so determine, 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.

A-A1-23

45.2

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.

46.1

Subject to the Statute and this Article and except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to any Shares, the Directors may resolve to pay Dividends and other distributions on Shares in issue and authorise payment of the Dividends or other distributions out of the funds of the Company lawfully available therefor. A Dividend shall be deemed to be an interim Dividend unless the terms of the resolution pursuant to which the Directors resolve to pay such Dividend specifically state that such Dividend shall be a final Dividend. No Dividend or other distribution shall be paid except out of the realised or unrealised profits of the Company, out of the share premium account or as otherwise permitted by the Statute.

46.2

Except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to any Shares, all Dividends and other distributions shall be 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.

46.3

The Directors may deduct from any Dividend or other distribution payable to any Member all sums of money (if any) then payable by him to the Company on account of calls or otherwise.

46.4

The Directors may resolve that any Dividend or other distribution be paid wholly or partly by the distribution of specific assets and in particular (but without limitation) by the distribution 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 may 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 in such manner as may seem expedient to the Directors.

46.5

Except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to any Shares, Dividends and other distributions may be paid in any currency. The Directors may determine the basis of conversion for any currency conversions that may be required and how any costs involved are to be met.

46.6

The Directors may, before resolving to pay any Dividend or other distribution, set aside such sums as they think proper as a reserve or reserves which shall, at the discretion of the Directors, be applicable for any purpose of the Company and pending such application may, at the discretion of the Directors, be employed in the business of the Company.

46.7

Any Dividend, other 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

A-A1-24

joint holders may give effectual receipts for any Dividends, other distributions, bonuses, or other monies payable in respect of the Share held by them as joint holders.

46.8

No Dividend or other distribution shall bear interest against the Company.

46.9

Any Dividend or other distribution which cannot be paid to a Member and/or which remains unclaimed after six months from the date on which such Dividend or other distribution becomes payable may, in the discretion of the Directors, 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 or other distribution shall remain as a debt due to the Member. Any Dividend or other distribution which remains unclaimed after a period of six years from the date on which such Dividend or other distribution becomes payable shall be forfeited and shall revert to the Company.

47

Capitalisation

The Directors may at any time capitalise any sum standing to the credit of any of the Company's reserve accounts or funds (including the share premium account and capital redemption reserve fund) or any sum standing to the credit of the profit and loss account or otherwise available for distribution; appropriate such sum to Members in the proportions in which such sum would have been divisible amongst such Members had the same been a distribution of profits by way of Dividend or other distribution; and 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 given to the Directors to make such provisions as they think fit in 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 or relating thereto and any agreement made under such authority shall be effective and binding on all such Members and the Company.

48

Books of Account

48.1

The Directors shall cause proper books of account (including, where applicable, material underlying documentation including contracts and invoices) to be kept with respect to all sums of money received and expended by the Company and the matters in respect of which the receipt or expenditure takes place, all sales and purchases of goods by the Company and the assets and liabilities of the Company. Such books of account must be retained for a minimum period of five years from the date on which they are prepared. 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.

48.2

The Directors shall determine whether and to what extent and at what times and places and under what conditions or regulations the accounts and books of the Company or any of them shall be open to the inspection of Members not being Directors and no Member (not being a Director) shall have any right of inspecting any account or book or document of the Company except as conferred by Statute or authorised by the Directors or by the Company in general meeting.

48.3

The Directors may 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.

A-A1-25

49

Audit

49.1

The Directors may appoint an Auditor of the Company who shall hold office on such terms as the Directors determine.

49.2

Every Auditor of the Company shall have a right of access at all times to the books and accounts and vouchers of the Company and shall be entitled to require from the Directors and officers of the Company such information and explanation as may be necessary for the performance of the duties of the Auditor.

49.3

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.

50

Notices

50.1

Notices shall be in writing and may be given by the Company to any Member either personally or by sending it by courier, post, cable, telex, fax or e-mail to him or to his address as shown in the Register of Members (or where the notice is given by e-mail by sending it to the e-mail address provided by such Member). Any notice, if posted from one country to another, is to be sent by airmail.

50.2

Where a notice is sent by courier, service of the notice shall be deemed to be effected by delivery of the notice to a courier company, and shall be deemed to have been received on the third day (not including Saturdays or Sundays or public holidays) following the day on which the notice was delivered to the courier. Where a notice is sent by post, service of the notice shall be deemed to be effected by properly addressing, pre paying and posting a letter containing the notice, and shall be deemed to have been received on the fifth day (not including Saturdays or Sundays or public holidays in the Cayman Islands) following the day on which the notice was posted. Where a notice is sent by cable, telex or fax, service of the notice shall be deemed to be effected by properly addressing and sending such notice and shall be deemed to have been received on the same day that it was transmitted. Where a notice is given by e-mail service shall be deemed to be effected by transmitting the e-mail to the e-mail address provided by the intended recipient and shall be deemed to have been received on the same day that it was sent, and it shall not be necessary for the receipt of the e-mail to be acknowledged by the recipient.

50.3

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 the 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.

50.4

Notice of every general meeting shall be given in any manner authorised by the Articles to every holder of Shares carrying an entitlement to receive such notice 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 where the Member but for his death or bankruptcy would be entitled to receive

A-A1-26

notice of the meeting, and no other person shall be entitled to receive notices of general meetings.

51

Winding Up

51.1

If the Company shall be wound up the liquidator shall apply the assets of the Company in satisfaction of creditors' claims in such manner and order as such liquidator thinks fit. Subject to the rights attaching to any Shares, in a winding up:

I.

if the assets available for distribution amongst the Members shall be insufficient to repay the whole of the Company's issued 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; or



II.

if the assets available for distribution amongst the Members shall be more than sufficient to repay the whole of the Company's issued 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.

51.2

If the Company shall be wound up the liquidator may, subject to the rights attaching to any Shares and with the sanction of a Special Resolution of the Company and any other sanction required by the Statute, divide amongst the Members in kind the whole or any part of the assets of the Company (whether such assets shall consist of property of the same kind or not) and may for that purpose value any assets and determine how the 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 asset upon which there is a liability.

52

Indemnity and Insurance

52.1

Every Director and officer of the Company (which for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include auditors of the Company), together with every former Director and former officer of the Company (each an "Indemnified Person") shall be indemnified out of the assets of the Company against any liability, action, proceeding, claim, demand, costs, damages or expenses, including legal expenses, whatsoever which they or any of them may incur as a result of any act or failure to act in carrying out their functions other than such liability (if any) that they may incur by reason of their own actual fraud or wilful default. No Indemnified Person shall be liable to the Company for any loss or damage incurred by the Company as a result (whether direct or indirect) of the carrying out of their functions unless that liability arises through the actual fraud or wilful default of such Indemnified Person. No person shall be found to have committed actual fraud or wilful default under this Article unless or until a court of competent jurisdiction shall have made a finding to that effect.

52.2

The Company shall advance to each Indemnified Person reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with the defence of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation involving such Indemnified Person for which indemnity will or could be sought. In connection with any advance of any expenses hereunder, the Indemnified Person shall execute an undertaking to repay the advanced amount to the Company if it shall be determined by final judgment or other final adjudication that such Indemnified Person was not entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article. If it shall be determined by a final judgment or other final adjudication that such Indemnified Person was not entitled to indemnification with respect to such judgment, costs or expenses, then such party shall not be indemnified with respect to

A-A1-27

such judgment, costs or expenses and any advancement shall be returned to the Company (without interest) by the Indemnified Person.

52.3

The Directors, on behalf of the Company, may purchase and maintain insurance for the benefit of any Director or other officer of the Company against any liability which, by virtue of any rule of law, would otherwise attach to such person in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust of which such person may be guilty in relation to the Company.

53

Financial Year

Unless the Directors otherwise prescribe, the financial year of the Company shall end on 31st December in each year and, following the year of incorporation, shall begin on 1st January in each year.

54

Transfer by Way of 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.

55

Mergers and Consolidations

The Company shall, with the approval of a Special Resolution, have the power to merge or consolidate with one or more constituent companies (as defined in the Statute), upon such terms as the Directors may determine.

B-1-9

        Section 5.7. Entire Agreement.     This Agreement (together with the Merger Agreement, to the extent referred to in this Agreement) constitutes the sole and entire agreement of the Shareholders or any of their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and VanceInfo or any of its Affiliates, on the other, with respect to the subject matter contained herein, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter.

        Section 5.9. Severability.     The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any party or any circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable, (a) a suitable and equitable provision shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application thereof, in any other jurisdiction.

        Section 5.18. No Agreement Until Executed.     This Agreement shall not constitute or be deemed to evidence a contract, agreement, arrangement or understanding between the parties hereto unless and until (a) the Merger Agreement is executed by all parties thereto and (b) this Agreement is executed by all parties hereto.

The Shareholder shall promptly notify VanceInfo of any required corrections with respect to any written information supplied by the Shareholder specifically for use in any such disclosure document, if and to the extent that any shall have become false or misleading in any material respect.

Any agreement on the part of a party to any extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by such party. The failure of any party to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such rights, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any right, power or privilege under this Agreement.

        Section 5.7. Entire Agreement.     This Agreement (together with the Merger Agreement, to the extent referred to in this Agreement) constitutes the sole and entire agreement of the Shareholder or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and HiSoft or any of its Affiliates, on the other, with respect to the subject matter contained herein, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter. No representation, warranty, inducement, promise, understanding or condition not set forth in this Agreement has been made or relied upon by any of the parties to this Agreement.

        Section 5.8. No Third-Party Beneficiaries.     This Agreement is for the sole benefit of, shall be binding upon, and may be enforced solely by VanceInfo and the Shareholder and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any Person (other than VanceInfo and the Shareholder) any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever.

        Section 5.9. Severability.     The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any party or any circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable, (a) a suitable and equitable provision shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application thereof, in any other jurisdiction.

        Section 5.10. Rules of Construction.     The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.

        Section 5.11. Assignment.     Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by operation of Law (including, but not limited to, by merger or consolidation) or otherwise by any of the parties without the prior written consent of the other parties.

Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

Each party hereto agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that (i) the other party has an adequate remedy at law or (ii) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity.

        Section 5.13. Shareholder Capacity.     Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made herein by the Shareholder are made solely with respect to the Shareholder and the Covered Shares.

Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by the Shareholder pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the parties as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the parties are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to the obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Counterparts; Effectiveness.     This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties; provided, however, that if the Shareholder fails for any reason to execute, or perform his obligations under, this Agreement, this Agreement shall remain effective as to all parties executing this Agreement.

        Section 5.17. No Agreement Until Executed.     This Agreement shall not constitute or be deemed to evidence a contract, agreement, arrangement or understanding between the parties hereto unless and until (a) the VanceInfo Board has adopted and approved the Merger, (b) the Merger Agreement is executed by all parties thereto and (c) this Agreement is executed by all parties hereto.

The Board of Directors
VanceInfo Technologies Inc.
3rd Floor, Building 8
Zhongguancun Software Park, Haidian District
Beijing, 100193, P.R. China

Members of the Board:

        You have requested our opinion as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, (i) to the holders of ordinary shares, par value $0.001 per share ("VanceInfo Shares"), of VanceInfo Technologies Inc. ("VanceInfo") of the Share Exchange Ratio (defined below), and (ii) to the holders of American Depositary Shares of VanceInfo, each of which represents one VanceInfo Share ("VanceInfo ADSs"), of the ADS Exchange Ratio (defined below), each as set forth in the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 10, 2012 (the "Merger Agreement"), among HiSoft Technology International Limited ("HiSoft"), VanceInfo and Chemistry Merger Sub Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of HiSoft. As more fully described in the Merger Agreement, (i) Chemistry Merger Sub Inc. will be merged with and into VanceInfo (the "Merger"), (ii) subject to the consummation of the Share Consolidation described below, each outstanding VanceInfo Share will be converted into the right to receive one (the "Share Exchange Ratio") common share of HiSoft, par value US$0.0001 per share ("HiSoft Shares") and (iii) each outstanding VanceInfo ADSs will be converted into the right to receive one (the "ADS Exchange Ratio") American Depositary Share of HiSoft, each of which, following the ADS Amendment described below, will represent one HiSoft Share ("HiSoft ADSs"). We understand that, in connection with the Merger and substantially contemporaneous therewith but immediately prior thereto, (i) HiSoft will undertake a share consolidation (the "Share Consolidation") and every 13.9482 issued and unissued HiSoft Shares would be consolidated into one HiSoft Share and (ii) HiSoft will amend the Deposit Agreement relating to the HiSoft ADSs and take all other steps necessary or appropriate to reduce the number of HiSoft Shares represented by each HiSoft ADS from 19 to one (the "ADS Amendment").

        In arriving at our opinion, we reviewed the Merger Agreement and held discussions with certain senior officers, directors and other representatives and advisors of VanceInfo and certain senior officers and other representatives and advisors of HiSoft concerning the businesses, operations and prospects of VanceInfo and HiSoft. We examined certain publicly available business and financial information relating to VanceInfo and HiSoft as well as certain financial forecasts and other information and data relating to VanceInfo and HiSoft which were provided to or discussed with us by the respective managements of VanceInfo and HiSoft, including information relating to the potential strategic implications and operational benefits (including the amount, timing and achievability thereof) anticipated by the managements of VanceInfo and HiSoft to result from the Merger. We reviewed the financial terms of the Merger as set forth in the Merger Agreement in relation to, among other things: current and historical market prices and trading volumes of VanceInfo ADSs and HiSoft ADSs; the historical and projected earnings and other operating data of VanceInfo and HiSoft; and the capitalization and financial condition of VanceInfo and HiSoft. We considered, to the extent publicly available, certain financial, stock market and other publicly available information relating to the businesses of other companies whose operations we considered relevant in evaluating those of VanceInfo and HiSoft. We also evaluated certain potential pro forma financial effects of the Merger on HiSoft. In connection with our engagement and at the direction of VanceInfo, we were requested to approach, and we held discussions with, selected third parties to solicit indications of interest in possible strategic transactions with, in some cases including the possible acquisition of all or a part of,

D-1

VanceInfo. In addition to the foregoing, we conducted such other analyses and examinations and considered such other information and financial, economic and market criteria as we deemed appropriate in arriving at our opinion. The issuance of our opinion has been authorized by our fairness opinion committee.

        In rendering our opinion, we have assumed and relied, without independent verification, upon the accuracy and completeness of all financial and other information and data publicly available or provided to or otherwise reviewed by or discussed with us and upon the assurances of the managements of VanceInfo and HiSoft that they are not aware of any relevant information that has been omitted or that remains undisclosed to us. With respect to financial forecasts and other information and data relating to VanceInfo and HiSoft provided to or otherwise reviewed by or discussed with us, we have been advised by the respective managements of VanceInfo and HiSoft that such forecasts and other information and data were reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments of the managements of VanceInfo and HiSoft as to the future financial performance of VanceInfo and HiSoft, the potential strategic implications and operational benefits anticipated to result from the Merger and the other matters covered thereby, and have assumed, with your consent, that the financial results (including the potential strategic implications and operational benefits anticipated to result from the Merger) reflected in such forecasts and other information and data will be realized in the amounts and at the times projected.

        We have assumed, with your consent, that the Merger will be consummated in accordance with its terms, without waiver, modification or amendment of any material term, condition or agreement (including, in this respect, that each of the Share Consolidation and the ADS Amendment will have been consummated on the terms described in the Merger Agreement) and that, in the course of obtaining the necessary regulatory or third party approvals, consents and releases for the Merger, no delay, limitation, restriction or condition will be imposed that would have an adverse effect on VanceInfo, HiSoft or the contemplated benefits of the Merger. We also have assumed, with your consent, that the Merger will be treated as a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes.

        Our opinion, as set forth herein, relates to the relative values of VanceInfo and HiSoft. We are not expressing any opinion as to what the value of the HiSoft Shares or HiSoft ADSs actually will be when issued pursuant to the Merger or the price at which the HiSoft ADSs will trade at any time. We have not made or been provided with an independent evaluation or appraisal of the assets or liabilities (contingent or otherwise) of VanceInfo or HiSoft nor have we made any physical inspection of the properties or assets of VanceInfo or HiSoft. Our opinion does not address the underlying business decision of VanceInfo to effect the Merger, the relative merits of the Merger as compared to any alternative business strategies that might exist for VanceInfo or the effect of any other transaction in which VanceInfo might engage. We also express no view as to, and our opinion does not address, the fairness (financial or otherwise) of the amount or nature or any other aspect of any compensation to any officers, directors or employees of any parties to the Merger, or any class of such persons, relative to the Share Exchange Ratio or the ADS Exchange Ratio. Our opinion is necessarily based upon information available to us, and financial, stock market and other conditions and circumstances existing, as of the date hereof.

        Citigroup Global Markets Inc. has acted as financial advisor to VanceInfo in connection with the proposed Merger and will receive a fee for such services, one-half of which is contingent upon the consummation of the Merger. We will receive the other half of our fee in connection with the delivery of this opinion. We and our affiliates in the past have provided services to VanceInfo and HiSoft unrelated to the proposed Merger, for which services we and such affiliates have received compensation, including, without limitation, having acted as sole bookrunner in connection with the offering of an additional 2.53 million VanceInfo ADSs with an aggregate value of $92.0 million in November 2010; having served as broker for VanceInfo in connection with its repurchase of 2.4 million VanceInfo ADSs during 2011; having acted as joint bookrunner in connection with the initial public

D-2

offering of 7.4 million HiSoft ADSs with an aggregate value of $74.0 million in July 2010; and having acted as joint bookrunner in connection with the offering of an additional 5.75 million HiSoft ADSs with an aggregate value of $149.5 million in December 2010. In the ordinary course of our business, we and our affiliates may actively trade or hold the securities of VanceInfo and HiSoft for our own account or for the account of our customers and, accordingly, may at any time hold a long or short position in such securities. In addition, we and our affiliates (including Citigroup Inc. and its affiliates) may maintain relationships with VanceInfo, HiSoft and their respective affiliates.

        Our advisory services and the opinion expressed herein are provided for the information of the Board of Directors of VanceInfo in its evaluation of the proposed Merger, and our opinion is not intended to be and does not constitute a recommendation to any stockholder as to how such stockholder should vote or act on any matters relating to the proposed Merger.

        Based upon and subject to the foregoing, our experience as investment bankers, our work as described above and other factors we deemed relevant, we are of the opinion that, as of the date hereof, the Share Exchange Ratio is fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of VanceInfo Shares and the ADS Exchange Ratio is fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of VanceInfo ADSs.

Very truly yours,

CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS INC.
