Common use of Mandatory Cashless Exercise Clause in Contracts

Mandatory Cashless Exercise. By accepting the Option, the Employee acknowledges and agrees that the immediate sale of the Shares issued upon the exercise of the Option is required unless the Company, in its sole discretion, determines otherwise. Such Shares will be transferred to a brokerage firm designated by the Company (the “Brokerage Firm”). The Brokerage Firm, on the Employee’s behalf, may, upon the Employee’s delivery of a properly executed written notice of exercise together with irrevocable instructions to the Brokerage Firm, thereafter immediately sell the Shares at the prevailing market price pursuant to any process for the sale set forth by the Company, and deliver the proceeds, less the Exercise Price, Tax-Related Items and any broker fees, to the Company or its designee, which would then remit the net proceeds to the Employee through the Company’s or Affiliate’s special purpose bank account in China. As a result of the immediate sale of Shares as set forth in this Appendix B, no Shares would be delivered to the Employee, and the Employee would not have any resulting rights as a shareholder of the Company.
