OTHER COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS.
3.1. Consent Right. Each Group Company shall not, and the Founding Shareholders shall cause such Group Company not to, without the prior written consent of Alibaba, (i) amend or terminate any Controlling Documents or waive or enforce any rights thereunder, or (ii) enter into any joint venture, partnership, strategic alliance, strategic cooperation or similar arrangement with any Investor Competitor or any other transaction with any Investor Competitor that is not in the ordinary course of business of the Group Companies.
3.2. Restriction on Transfers of Company Securities.
(a) At any time prior to the second (2nd) anniversary of the date of this Agreement or an earlier date mutually agreed in writing by the Company and Alibaba or Cainiao (as the case may be), Alibaba and Cainiao shall not Transfer any Company Securities other than (i) a Transfer to any of its Affiliates, (ii) a Transfer to the Company, (iii) to the extent required by applicable Law, or (iv) with the approval of the Board (including the written approval of the Founder if the Founder at the time of such approval is a member of the Board). From the second (2nd) anniversary of the date of this Agreement, Alibaba and Cainiao may freely Transfer Company Securities to any Person(s), subject to Section 3.2(c).
(b) Without the prior written consent of Alibaba or except pursuant to a Permitted Founding Shareholder Transfer, no Founding Shareholder shall, acting alone or together with other Founding Shareholders, Transfer any Company Securities legally or beneficially owned by him (directly or indirectly through any intermediary) at any time to any Investor Competitor; provided, however, that the foregoing restriction shall not apply to Transfer of Company Securities by the Founding Shareholders over a stock exchange or in one or more privately negotiated block sale transactions as long as the applicable Founding Shareholder is not aware after due inquiry that the transferee is an Investor Competitor. Without prejudice to the foregoing sentence, the Founder shall not Transfer any Class B Ordinary Shares legally or beneficially owned by him (directly or indirectly through any intermediary) prior to the second (2nd) anniversary of the date hereof without the prior written consent of Alibaba or except pursuant to a Permitted Founding Shareholder Transfer. Except as explicitly set forth under Sections 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 hereunder, there is no provision in this Agreement that directly or indirectly restricts the ability of any Founding Shareholder to transfer the Company Securities.
(c) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, any transferee (except the Company, any Founding Shareholder or public investors) of Company Securities in a Transfer made by any Founding Shareholder or Investor shall upon the consummation of, and as a condition to, such Transfer execute and deliver to the Company an agreement (or a counterpart to this Agreement) pursuant to which such transferee agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, with such rights of the transferor that are assigned by the transferor in compliance with Section 6.5.
(d) Any Transfer or attempted Transfer of Company Securities in violation of any provision of this Agreement shall be void, and the Company shall not record such Transfer on its books or treat any purported transferee of such Company Securities as the owner of such Company Securities for any purpose.
3.3. Right of First Offer. Subject to Section 3.2, at any time the Founder proposes to Transfer, whether in a single transaction or a series of transactions, Company Securities legally or beneficially owned by him (directly or indirectly through any intermediary), which constitutes a Change of Control, the Founder shall first make an offer of such Company Securities to the Investors on the following terms:
(a) the Founder shall first deliver to the Company and each Investor a written notice (a “Sale Notice”), which shall state the Founder’s irrevocable offer to Transfer Company Securities, the amount and type of Company Securities to be Transferred (the “Subject Securities”), the proposed purchase price per share of the Subject Securities (including the cash value of any non-cash consideration), the terms of payment of such purchase price and a summary of the other material terms of the proposed Transfer. Each Investor shall have the right and option, for a period of fifteen (15) Business Days after delivery of the Sale Notice (the “Offer Acceptance Period”), to irrevocably elect to either (i) exercise its right of first offer and purchase all of its ROFO Percentage of the Subject Securities at the purchase price and on the terms stated in the Sale Notice; or (ii) exercise its Tag-Along Right pursuant to Section 3.4. Each Investor’s acceptance hereunder shall be made by delivering a written notice setting forth its irrevocable election to the Founder within the Offer Acceptance Period. For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any proposed Transfer that contains non-cash consideration, Alibaba shall be entitled to pay cash in lieu of the cash value of the non-cash consideration included in the Sale Notice.
(b) If effective acceptance shall not be received pursuant to Section 3.3(a), then the Founder may Transfer the Subject Securities to any purchaser other than an Investor Competitor (the “Proposed Purchaser”) at a price not less than the price, and on other terms not more favorable to such Proposed Purchaser than the terms stated in the Sale Notice at any time within sixty (60) days after the expiration of the Offer Acceptance Period (the “Sale Period”). In the event that the Subject Securities (i) are not Transferred by the Founder during the Sale Period or (ii) are not Transferred to the purchaser at a price not less than the price and on other terms not more favorable to the purchaser thereof than the terms stated in the Sale Notice, the right of the Founder to Transfer the Subject Securities shall expire and the obligations of this Sections 3.3 shall be reinstated.
(c) The Transfer of Subject Securities to either (or both) of the Investors pursuant to an effective election to purchase all of such Investor’s ROFO Percentage of the Subject Securities shall be consummated contemporaneously at the offices of the Company on the later of (i) a mutually satisfactory Business Day within fifteen (15) days after the expiration of the Offer Acceptance Period, and (ii) the fifth (5th) Business Day following the receipt of any regulatory approvals applicable to such Transfer, or at such other time and/or place as the parties to such Transfer may agree. The delivery of certificates or other instruments evidencing such Subject Securities duly endorsed for transfer shall be made on such date against payment of the purchase price for such Subject Securities.
(d) The requirements of this Section 3.3 shall not apply to any Permitted Founding Shareholder Transfer. The requirements of this Section 3.3 are in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other restrictions on Transfers of Company Securities contained in this Agreement.
3.4. Tag-Along Right.
(a) Upon delivery of the Sale Notice as contemplated under Section 3.3(a), in the event that either Investor irrevocably elects to exercise its right (the “Tagging Investor”) to, at the same price per share and upon the same terms included in the Sale Notice, to sell to the Proposed Purchaser, certain number of shares of Company Securities legally or beneficially owned by it (the “Tag-Along Right”), this number of shares shall be equal to the product of (x) a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate number of shares of the Subject Securities and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of shares of Company Securities legally or beneficially owned as of the date of the Sale Notice by the Founder and (y) the number of shares of Company Securities legally or beneficially owned by such Tagging Investor as of the date of the Sale Notice. The Tag-Along Right may be exercised in whole or in part at the option of each Tagging Investor; provided that notice of each Tagging Investor’s intention to exercise its Tag-Along Right, in whole or in part, shall be evidenced by the written notice delivered in compliance with Section 3.3(a) within the Offer Acceptance Period.
(b) In connection with any Transfer of Company Securities pursuant to the exercise of Tag-Along Right (a “Tag-Along Sale”), the Tagging Investors and the Founder shall be obligated, if applicable, to vote (or consent in writing, as the case may be) all voting Company Securities legally or beneficially owned by them in favor of any Tag-Along Sale and the Tagging Investors, the Founder and the Company shall in all other respects support the transaction contemplated by the Tag-Along Sale and shall be obligated to cooperate in the consummation of the transaction contemplated thereby and shall execute all documents, including a sale or purchase agreement, reasonably requested by the Company or the Founder containing the terms and conditions of the Tag-Along Sale; provided, however, that (i) no Investor shall be required to make any representations or warranties in any agreement relating to a Tag-Along Sale other than representations and warranties relating to such Tagging Investor and the ownership of its shares of Company Securities that are customary in similar transactions including representations and warranties relating to title, authorization and execution and delivery and (ii) the Tagging Investors shall receive the same form of consideration as the Founder, and if the Founder is given an option as to the form and amount of consideration to be received, each Investor shall be given the same option.
(c) The requirements of this Section 3.4 shall not apply to any Permitted Founding Shareholder Transfer. The requirements of this Section 3.4 are in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other restrictions on Transfers of Company Securities contained in this Agreement.
3.5. Preemptive Rights. Subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, the Company shall not issue, or cause any of its Subsidiaries to issue any Equity Securities, except in accordance with the following procedures:
(a) The Company shall deliver to each Preemptive Shareholder a written notice (a “Preemptive Offer Notice”) which shall (i) state the intention of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to issue Equity Securities to one or more Persons, the amount and type of Equity Securities to be issued (the “Issuance Securities”), the purchase price therefor and a summary of the other material terms of the proposed issuance and (ii) offer each of the Preemptive Shareholders the option to acquire all or any part of the Issuance Securities (the “Preemptive Offer”). The Preemptive Offer shall remain open and irrevocable for the period set forth below (and, to the extent the Preemptive Offer is accepted during such period, until the consummation of the issuance contemplated by the Preemptive Offer). Each Preemptive Shareholder shall have the right and option, for a period of fifteen (15) Business Days after delivery of the Preemptive Offer Notice (the “Preemptive Acceptance Period”), to elect to purchase all or any portion of its or his Preemptive Percentage of the Issuance Securities (and any of its or his Affiliates’ Preemptive Percentage of the Issuance Securities not purchased by such Affiliates) at the purchase price and on the terms stated in the Preemptive Offer Notice. Such acceptance shall be made by a Preemptive Shareholder by delivering a written notice to the Company within the Preemptive Acceptance Period specifying the maximum number of shares of the Issuance Securities such Preemptive Shareholder will purchase.
(b) If valid acceptance shall not be received pursuant to Section 3.5(a) above with respect to all of the Issuance Securities offered pursuant to the Preemptive Offer Notice, then the Company or its Subsidiary, as applicable, may issue all or any portion of such Issuance Securities so offered and not so accepted, at a price not less than the price, and on terms not more favorable to the purchaser thereof than the terms, stated in the Preemptive Offer Notice at any time within sixty (60) days after the expiration of the Preemptive Acceptance Period (the “Issuance Period”). In the event that any Issuance Securities are not so issued by the Company during the Issuance Period, the right of the Company or its Subsidiary, as applicable, to issue such unsold Issuance Securities shall expire and the obligations of this Section 3.5 shall be reinstated and such securities shall not be offered unless first reoffered to the Preemptive Shareholders in accordance with this Section 3.5.
(c) All sales of Issuance Securities to the Preemptive Shareholders subject to any Preemptive Offer Notice shall be consummated contemporaneously on the later of (i) a mutually satisfactory Business Day within ten (10) Business Days after the expiration of the Preemptive Acceptance Period or (ii) the fifth (5th) Business Day following the receipt of any regulatory approvals applicable to such issuance, or at such other time and/or place as the Company and the applicable Preemptive Shareholders may otherwise agree. The delivery of certificates or other instruments evidencing such Issuance Securities shall be made by the Company or its Subsidiary, as applicable, on such date against payment of the purchase price for such Issuance Securities.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.5, the pre-emptive right hereunder shall not apply to any sale, offer or issuance of Equity Securities: (i) to employees, officers or consultants pursuant to any ESOP or similar share-based plan approved by the Board in accordance with the Company’s Charter Documents, (ii) in connection with any exercise of conversion rights by any Person holding any convertible securities of the Company not in contravention of the Transaction Documents or the Company’s Charter Documents, or (iii) any Equity Securities issued in connection with any share split, share dividend or any share subdivision or other similar event in which all shareholders of the Company are entitled to participate on a pro rata basis.
(e) Investors’ rights under this Section 3.5 shall be suspended if and as long as, solely as a result of exercise of the rights under this Section 3.5, the Investors in aggregate own legally or beneficially more voting power of the Company than the voting power of the Company legally or beneficially owned by the Founder and his Affiliates.
(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Group Company shall be permitted to issue any Equity Securities to an Investor Competitor without the prior written consent of Alibaba; provided, however, that the foregoing restriction shall not apply to offerings or sale of Equity Securities to public investors where the Company is not aware that the transferee is an Investor Competitor.
3.6. Information and Consultation Rights. The Company shall:
(a) provide each Investor and each of its respective designated representatives with:

(b) make appropriate officers and directors of the Company and its Subsidiaries available periodically and at such times as reasonably requested by the Investors for consultation with the Investors or their designated representatives with respect to matters relating to the business and affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries.
3.7. No Restrictions on the Company or the Investors.
(a) Without the prior written consent of the Company, other than as contemplated by the Transaction Documents or pursuant to restrictions as applicable to the Company or the Investors and their respective Affiliates under applicable securities Laws, after the date hereof, each Investor shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, take any action or execute any agreement that would purport to bind the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as a “subsidiary,” “affiliate” or similar related party of such Investor or any of its Affiliates, including any provision or covenant that would purport to limit the freedom of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to (i) sell any products or services to any Person or in any geographic region, (ii) engage in any line of business or compete with any other Person, (iii) obtain products or services from any Person, (iv) solicit for employment, employ or otherwise engage any Persons as a service provider, or (v) disclose or use the confidential information of any Person (other than with respect to confidential information of a third party provided to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries by such Investor or any of its respective Affiliates).
