(a)         any of the representations or warranties made by the Company in Section 4 of this Agreement being untrue or incorrect (i) at the time such representation or warranty was made or (ii) on the Closing Date as if given as of the Closing Date (except, in each case, to the extent such representations or warranties are as of a date other than the date hereof or the Closing Date, in which case, the failure of any such representation or warranty to be true and correct as of that date);
 
(b)         any breach by the Company of any of its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Warrant, the Series A Certificate of Designations, or the Investor Rights Agreement;

10.3                       Sponsor Shareholders Indemnification Obligation. The Sponsor Shareholders hereby agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify each Investor Indemnified Party against any Losses that it actually incurs in connection with any of the transactions contemplated hereby arising out of or based upon:
 
(a)         any of the representations or warranties made by the Sponsor Shareholders in Section 5 of this Agreement being untrue or incorrect (i) at the time such representation or warranty was made or (ii) on the Closing Date as if given as of the Closing Date (except, in each case, to the extent such representations or warranties are as of another date, in which case, the failure of any such representation or warranty to be true and correct as of that date);
 
(b)         any breach by the Sponsor Shareholders of any of its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or the Investor Rights Agreement; and
 
(c)         any failure of any of the Founder, Ou Wen Lin or Qingping Lin complete all filings and registrations with the SAFE in accordance with all applicable PRC Laws including without limitation the Notice on Relevant Issues Concerning Foreign Exchange Administration for PRC Residents to Engage in Financing and Inbound Investment Via Offshore Special Purpose Vehicles issued by the SAFE on October 21, 2005 and effective as of November 1, 2005.
 
10.4                       Limitation on Indemnification.
 
(a)         The foregoing indemnification as set out in Sections 10.1 and 10.2 hereof shall not apply to any Loss to the extent that it arises out of, or is based upon, the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Investor in connection therewith. Except with respect to the Put Option, Section 10.1 and Section 10.2 (and the other applicable provisions of Section 10) will be the sole and the exclusive remedy of the Investor Indemnified Parties with respect to the matters set forth in subsections (a) – (d) of Section 10.2 hereof, and, to the maximum extent possible under applicable Law, the Investor hereby waives any other rights and remedies that the Investor and the Investor Indemnified Parties may have under applicable Law.
 
 
36

 
 
(b)         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement: (a) neither the Company nor the Sponsor Shareholders shall be liable for any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.1 or Section 10.2, unless and until the aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from the Company or the Sponsor Shareholders equals or exceeds US$100,000, whereupon the Investor Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification for the full amount of such Losses, and (b) the maximum amount of indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from the Company or the Sponsor Shareholders arising out of or resulting from the causes set forth in Section 10.1 or Section 10.2, as the case may be, shall be an amount equal to US$30,000,000, provided, however, that such amount shall be (i) increased by US$10,000,000 upon the exercise of all of the Purchased Warrants and, to the extent the Purchased Warrants are not fully exercised, increased by a pro rata proportion of US$10,000,000 equal to the proportion the amount of Purchased Warrants exercised bears to the total amount of Purchased Warrants and (ii) reduced on a dollar for dollar basis to the extent the Investor received any amounts from its exercise of the put right pursuant to Section 7 of the Investor Rights Agreement.
 
10.5                       Conduct of Claims.
 
(a)         Whenever a claim for indemnification shall arise under this Section 10 as a result of a third-party claim, the party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”), shall notify the party from whom such indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the claim and the facts constituting the basis for such claim in reasonable detail.
 
(b)         Such Indemnifying Party shall have the right to retain the counsel of its choice in connection with such claim and to participate at its own expense in the defense of any such claim; provided, however, that counsel to the Indemnifying Party shall not (except with the consent of the relevant Indemnified Party) also be counsel to such Indemnified Party. In no event shall the Indemnifying Party be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from its own counsel for all Indemnified Parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances.
 
(c)         No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification could be sought under this Section 10 unless such settlement, compromise or consent (A) includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (B) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party.
