Preamble

This Amendment No. 2 (this “Amendment No. 2”) amends the Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons relating to the beneficial ownership of ordinary shares, par value US$0.0001 per share (“Ordinary Shares”) and American depositary shares (the “ADSs”), each representing four Ordinary Shares of the Issuer listed on the NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol “VIMC” (the “Issuer”) on August 17, 2015, as amended and supplemented by the Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D filed on September 14, 2015 (the “Schedule 13D”). Except as specifically amended by this Amendment No. 2, the Schedule 13D remains in full force and effect. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 2 have the same respective meanings provided to them in the Schedule 13D.

ITEM 3.

SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement (as defined below), Merger Sub (as defined below) will be merged with and into the Issuer, with the Issuer surviving the Merger (as defined below) and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (as defined below) as a result of the Merger. The descriptions of the Merger and the Merger Agreement set forth in Item 4 below are incorporated by reference in their entirety into this Item 3. The information disclosed in this paragraph is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 7.03, and in incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

It is anticipated that the total amount of funds necessary to complete the Merger and the related transactions is approximately $310 million (assuming no exercise of dissenter rights by shareholders of the Company), which is expected to be provided by Alpha Spring through a commitment to make loan to Parent in the aggregate principal amount of $310 million pursuant to a debt commitment letter by Alpha Spring.

ITEM 4.

PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

On September 11, 2015, Xiaodong (Dave) Yang (“Dr. Yang”) and Vimicro Tianjin Corporation (“Vimicro Tianjin”), together with Dr. Zhonghan (John) Deng, Vimicro Beijing Corporation, Mr. Zhaowei (Kevin) Jin, Vimicro Shenzhen Corporation and Mr. Shengda Zan entered into an amended and restated consortium agreement (the “Restated Consortium Agreement”) pursuant to which the Consortium Agreement was amended and restated in its entirety on substantially the same terms as the Consortium Agreement to provide for, among other things, the inclusion of Dr. Yang and Vimicro Tianjin as new members of the Consortium in connection with the proposal to pursue the Proposed Transaction.

On September 15, 2015, the Issuer entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Vimicro China (Parent) Limited, a Cayman Islands company (“Parent”) and Vimicro Acquisition Limited, a Cayman Islands company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Issuer (the “Merger”), with the Issuer surviving the Merger and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent as a result of the Merger. At the effective time of the Merger, each of the Issuer’s Class A Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (including Ordinary Shares represented by ADSs) will be cancelled in consideration for the right to receive $3.375 per Ordinary Share or US$13.50 per ADS, in each case, in cash, without interest and net of any applicable withholding taxes, except for (i) the Rollover Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement), and (ii) Ordinary Shares owned by holders who have validly exercised and not effectively withdrawn or lost their rights to dissent from the Merger pursuant to Section 238 of the Companies Law of the Cayman Islands, which Ordinary Shares will be cancelled at the effective time of the Merger for the right to receive the fair value of such Ordinary Shares determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 238 of the Companies Law of the Cayman Islands. The Merger is subject to the approval of the Issuer’s shareholders and various other closing conditions.

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, (i) each of the Reporting Persons (other than Mr. Zan, collectively, the “Founder Parties”) entered into a limited guarantee (the “Founder Limited Guarantee”) in favor of the Issuer, pursuant to which the Founder Parties severally and jointly guarantee the due and punctual observance, performance and/or discharge of payment as and when due and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth therein and in the Merger Agreement, of Parent’s obligation to pay a termination fee to the Company under the Merger Agreement, subject to a cap of $6.7 million; and (ii) Nantong Zongyi and Alpha Spring (together with Nantong Zongyi, collectively, the “Sponsor Guarantors”) entered into a limited guarantee in favor of the Issuer, pursuant to which the Sponsor Guarantors guarantee the due and punctual observance, performance and/or discharge of payment as and when due and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth therein and in the Merger Agreement of (a) Parent’s obligation to pay a termination fee to the Company under the Merger Agreement and (b) Parent’s and Merger Sub’s funding of the merger consideration under the Merger Agreement, subject to a cap of US$310,000,000 (the “Sponsor Limited Guarantee”).

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Reporting Persons entered into a rollover agreement (the “Rollover Agreement”) with Parent and Merger Sub, pursuant to which, immediately prior to the closing of the Merger, each Rollover Share (as defined in the Rollover Agreement) shall be cancelled and each Rollover Shareholder (as defined in the Rollover Agreement) shall subscribe for the number of ordinary shares in Parent as set forth in the Rollover Agreement. Pursuant to the Rollover Agreement, immediately prior to the closing of the Merger, Parent shall become wholly-owned by the Rollover Shareholders.

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, each of the Rollover Shareholders entered into voting agreements (each a “Voting Agreement” and collectively, the “Voting Agreements”) with Parent and Merger Sub, pursuant to which the Rollover Shareholders agreed, among other things, that each of them will vote the shares held by them in favor of the authorization and approval of the Merger Agreement, the plan of merger and the transactions contemplated thereunder, including the Merger.

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Alpha Spring entered into a commitment letter (the “Commitment Letter”) with Parent and Merger Sub, pursuant to which Alpha Spring undertook to make a loan to Parent in the aggregate principal amount of $310 million.

If the Merger is completed, the ADSs would be delisted from the NASDAQ Global Market and the Issuer’s obligations to file annual report under the Exchange Act would be terminated.

In addition, consummation of the Merger could result in one or more of the actions specified in clauses (a)-(j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, including the acquisition or disposition of securities of the Issuer, a merger or other extraordinary transaction involving the Issuer, a change to the Board (as the board of the surviving company in the Merger) to consist solely of persons to be designated by the Reporting Persons, and a change in the Issuer’s memorandum and articles of association to reflect that the Issuer would become a privately held company. No assurance can be given that the Merger will be consummated.

Description of the Restated Consortium Agreement, the Merger Agreement, the Founder Limited Guarantee, the Sponsor Limited Guarantee, the Commitment Letter, the Rollover Agreement, the Voting Agreements which are attached hereto as Exhibit 7.02, 7.03, 7.04, 7.05, 7.06, 7.07, 7.08, 7.09, 7.10 and 7.11 and incorporated by reference as if set forth in its entirety herein.

Item 5.

INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

Item 5 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

(a) – (b) The following disclosure assumes that there are 124,263,310 Ordinary Shares outstanding as of September 14, 2015, as provided by the Issuer.

With respect to each of the Reporting Persons, the cover pages of this Schedule 13D are incorporated herein by reference, as if set forth in their entirety.

Each Reporting Person expressly disclaims any beneficial ownership of such shares held by each other Reporting Person.

Exhibit 7.04

FOUNDER LIMITED GUARANTEE

FOUNDER LIMITED GUARANTEE, dated as of September 15, 2015 (this "Founder Limited Guarantee"), by the persons listed on Schedule A (each, a "Guarantor" and collectively, the “Founder Guarantor” or the "Guarantors") in favor of Vimicro International Corporation, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the "Guaranteed Party"). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Merger Agreement (as defined below).

1. GUARANTEE. To induce the Guaranteed Party to enter into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Merger Agreement") by and among Vimicro China (Parent) Limited ("Parent"), Vimicro China Acquisition Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub"), and the Guaranteed Party, pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Guaranteed Party (the "Merger"), each of the Guarantors, intending to be legally bound, hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally, severally and jointly, guarantees to the Guaranteed Party the due and punctual observance, performance and/or discharge of payment as and when due, of such percentage as set forth opposite such Guarantor’s name on Schedule A hereto of the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to Section 9.3(c) of the Merger Agreement and subject to the terms and limitations of Section 9.3(d) of the Merger Agreement (the "Obligations"); provided that in no event shall the Guarantors' aggregate liability under this Founder Limited Guarantee exceed US$6,700,000 (the "Cap"), it being understood that this Founder Limited Guarantee may not be enforced without giving effect to the Cap. All payments hereunder shall be made in lawful money of the United States, in immediately available funds. The Guarantors promise and undertake to make all payments hereunder free and clear of any deduction, offset, defense, claim or counterclaim of any kind. If Parent or Merger Sub is in breach of an Obligation, then the Guarantors' liabilities to the Guaranteed Party hereunder in respect of such Obligation shall, at the Guaranteed Party's option, become immediately due and payable and the Guaranteed Party may at any time and from time to time, at the Guaranteed Party's option, and so long as Parent or Merger Sub remains in breach of such Obligation, take any and all actions available hereunder or under applicable law to collect such Obligation from the Guarantors subject to the Cap. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Guarantors acknowledge that the Guaranteed Party may, in its sole discretion, bring and prosecute a separate action or actions against the Guarantors for the full amount of the Obligations, regardless of whether any action is brought against Parent or Merger Sub. The Guarantors agree to pay on demand all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by the Guaranteed Party in connection with enforcement of its rights hereunder if (i) the Guarantors assert in any litigation or other proceeding that this Guarantee is illegal, invalid or unenforceable in accordance with its terms or (ii) the Guarantors fail or refuse to make any payment to the Guaranteed Party hereunder when due and payable.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Guarantors hereby expressly waive any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of any applicable Law which would otherwise require any election of remedies by the Guaranteed Party. The Guarantors waive promptness, diligence, notice of the acceptance of this Founder Limited Guarantee and of the Obligations, presentment, demand for payment, notice of non-performance, default, dishonor and protest, notice of the Obligations incurred and all other notices of any kind (other than notices expressly required to be provided to Parent or Merger Sub pursuant to the Merger Agreement), all defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium Law or other similar Law now or hereafter in effect, any right to require the marshalling of assets of Parent or Merger Sub or any other Person interested in the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, and all suretyship defenses generally (other than defenses to the payment of the Obligations (x) that are available to Parent or Merger Sub under the Merger Agreement or (y) in respect of a breach by the Guaranteed Party of this Founder Limited Guarantee.

3. NO WAIVER; CUMULATIVE RIGHTS. No failure on the part of the Guaranteed Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, remedy or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Guaranteed Party of any right, remedy or power hereunder preclude any other or future exercise of any right, remedy or power hereunder. Each and every right, remedy and power hereby granted to the Guaranteed Party or allowed it by Law or other agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other, and may be exercised by the Guaranteed Party at any time or from time to time.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Founder Limited Guarantee shall terminate and the Guarantors shall have no further obligation under this Founder Limited Guarantee as of the earliest of (a) the Effective Time, (b) the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms (other than a termination of the Merger Agreement for which a Parent Termination Fee is, in accordance with Section 9.3(c) of the Merger Agreement, due and owing by Parent (a "Qualifying Termination")) and (c) the 120th day after a Qualifying Termination unless prior to the 120th day after such Qualifying Termination, the Guaranteed Party shall have commenced a legal proceeding against Parent or Merger Sub alleging an amount is due and payable by Parent or Merger Sub under the Merger Agreement or against the Guarantors alleging amounts payable by the Guarantors to the Guaranteed Party under this Founder Limited Guarantee, in which case this Founder Limited Guarantee shall terminate upon either (i) a final, non-appealable resolution of such claim and payment of the Obligation (subject to the Cap), if applicable or (ii) a written agreement signed by each of the parties hereto terminating this Founder Limited Guarantee.

8. NO RECOURSE. Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this Founder Limited Guarantee or any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith, and notwithstanding the fact that a Guarantor may be a partnership or limited liability company, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Founder Limited Guarantee, the Guaranteed Party acknowledges and agrees that (a) no Person other than the Guarantors (and their respective successors and assigns) has any obligation hereunder and that no recourse shall be had hereunder, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligation or their creation, against, and no personal liability shall attach to, any Non-Recourse Party, through Parent, Merger Sub or otherwise, whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate veil, by or through a claim by or on behalf of the Guaranteed Party against any Non-Recourse Party, by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute, regulation or applicable Law, or otherwise, and (b) the only rights of recovery and claims that the Guaranteed Party has against the Founder Guarantor in respect of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder are the Founder Retained Claims.

9. NATURE OF GUARANTEE. The Guarantors' liability hereunder is absolute, unconditional, irrevocable and continuing irrespective of any modification, amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from the Merger Agreement that may be agreed to by Parent or Merger Sub. The Guaranteed Party shall not be obligated to file any claim relating to the Obligations in the event that Parent or Merger Sub becomes subject to a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding, and the failure of the Guaranteed Party to so file shall not affect the Guarantors' obligation hereunder. In the event that any payment to the Guaranteed Party in respect of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned for any reason whatsoever, the Guarantors shall remain liable hereunder with respect to such Obligation as if such payment had not been made. This Founder Limited Guarantee is an unconditional and continuing guarantee of payment and not of collection, and the Guaranteed Party shall not be required to initiate any legal proceedings against Parent or Merger Sub before proceeding against the Guarantors hereunder.

Upon and after the submission of any dispute to arbitration, the parties shall continue to exercise their remaining respective rights, and fulfill their remaining respective obligations under this Founder Limited Guarantee, except insofar as the same may relate directly to the matters in dispute. The parties hereby agree that any arbitration award rendered in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10 shall be final and binding upon them, and the parties further agree that such award may be enforced by any court having jurisdiction over the party against which the award has been rendered or the assets of such party wherever the same may be located. In any arbitration proceeding, any legal proceeding to enforce any arbitration award and in any other legal proceeding among the parties pursuant to or relating to this Founder Limited Guarantee, each party expressly waives the defense of sovereign immunity and any other defense based on the fact or allegation that it is an agency or instrumentality of a sovereign state or is otherwise entitled to immunity.

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Merger Agreement (as defined below).

1. GUARANTEE. To induce the Guaranteed Party to enter into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with its terms, the "Merger Agreement") by and among Vimicro China (Parent) Limited ("Parent"), Vimicro China Acquisition Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub"), and the Guaranteed Party, pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Guaranteed Party (the "Merger"), each of the Guarantors, intending to be legally bound, hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally, severally and jointly, guarantees to the Guaranteed Party the due and punctual observance, performance and/or discharge of payment as and when due, of (a) 33% of the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to Section 9.3(c) of the Merger Agreement and subject to the terms and limitations of Section 9.3(d) of the Merger Agreement and (b) Parent and Merger Sub funding the aggregate Per Share Merger Consideration, Per ADS Merger Consideration and Option Consideration pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Merger Agreement (the "Obligations"); provided that in no event shall the Guarantor's aggregate liability under this Sponsor Limited Guarantee exceed US$310,000,000 (the "Cap"), it being understood that this Sponsor Limited Guarantee may not be enforced without giving effect to the Cap. All payments hereunder shall be made in lawful money of the United States, in immediately available funds. The Guarantors promise and undertake to make all payments hereunder free and clear of any deduction, offset, defense, claim or counterclaim of any kind. If Parent or Merger Sub is in breach of an Obligation, then the Guarantors' liabilities to the Guaranteed Party hereunder in respect of such Obligation shall, at the Guaranteed Party's option, become immediately due and payable and the Guaranteed Party may at any time and from time to time, at the Guaranteed Party's option, and so long as Parent or Merger Sub remains in breach of such Obligation, take any and all actions available hereunder or under applicable law to collect such Obligation from the Guarantors subject to the Cap. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Guarantors acknowledge that the Guaranteed Party may, in its sole discretion, bring and prosecute a separate action or actions against the Guarantors for the full amount of the Obligations, regardless of whether any action is brought against Parent or Merger Sub. The Guarantors agree to pay on demand all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by the Guaranteed Party in connection with enforcement of its rights hereunder if (i) the Guarantors assert in any litigation or other proceeding that this Guarantee is illegal, invalid or unenforceable in accordance with its terms or (ii) the Guarantors fail or refuse to make any payment to the Guaranteed Party hereunder when due and payable.

2. CHANGES IN OBLIGATION, CERTAIN WAIVERS.

The Guarantors agree that the obligation of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by (a) the failure or delay on the part of the Guaranteed Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against Parent or Merger Sub; (b) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of the Obligations or any rescission, waiver, compromise, consolidation or other amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of the Merger Agreement made in accordance with the terms of Section 9.4 thereof or any agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with the Obligations; (c) the addition, substitution or release of any entity or other Person interested in the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (d) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of Parent, Merger Sub or any other Person interested in the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (e) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting Parent, Merger Sub or any other Person interested in the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (f) the existence of any claim, set-off or other right which the Guarantors may have at any time against Parent, Merger Sub or the Guaranteed Party or any of their respective Affiliates, whether in connection with the Obligations or otherwise (other than defenses to the payment of the Obligations that are available to Parent or Merger Sub under the Merger Agreement); (g) the adequacy of any other means the Guaranteed Party may have of obtaining payment related to the Obligation; or (h) any discharge of the Guarantors as a matter of applicable law (other than as a result of, and to the extent of, payment of the Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement). To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Guarantors hereby expressly waive any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of any applicable Law which would otherwise require any election of remedies by the Guaranteed Party.

Each of the Guarantors hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees not to exercise any rights that it may now have or hereafter acquire against Parent or Merger Sub that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of the Obligations under or in respect of this Sponsor Limited Guarantee or any other agreement in connection therewith, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification unless and until the Obligations and any other amounts that may be payable under this Sponsor Limited Guarantee shall have been paid in full in cash. Each of the Guarantors hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not institute, and shall cause its Affiliates (other than the Rollover Shareholders or any of their Affiliates or any such Persons’ respective officers and directors) not to institute, any proceeding asserting that this Sponsor Limited Guarantee is illegal, invalid or unenforceable in accordance with its terms. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Sponsor Limited Guarantee, the Guaranteed Party hereby agrees that to the extent Parent and Merger Sub are relieved of any of their payment obligations under the Merger Agreement (other than by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally, or general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law)), the Guarantors shall be similarly relieved of their corresponding Obligations under this Sponsor Limited Guarantee.

8. NO RECOURSE. Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this Sponsor Limited Guarantee or any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith, and notwithstanding the fact that a Guarantor may be a partnership or limited liability company, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Sponsor Limited Guarantee, the Guaranteed Party acknowledges and agrees that (a) no Person other than the Guarantors (and their respective successors and assigns) has any obligation hereunder and that no recourse shall be had hereunder, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligation or their creation, against, and no personal liability shall attach to, any Non-Recourse Party, through Parent, Merger Sub or otherwise, whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate veil, by or through a claim by or on behalf of the Guaranteed Party against any Non-Recourse Party, by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute, regulation or applicable Law, or otherwise, and (b) the only rights of recovery and claims that the Guaranteed Party has against the Sponsor Guarantor in respect of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder are the Sponsor Retained Claims.

Recourse against the Guarantors pursuant to this Sponsor Limited Guarantee shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Guaranteed Party and all of its Affiliates (other than the Rollover Shareholders or any of their Affiliates or any such Persons’ respective officers and directors) against the Guarantors, Parent or Merger Sub in respect of any liabilities or obligations arising under, or in connection with, the Merger Agreement, the Commitment Letter or the transactions contemplated thereby, except for any Sponsor Retained Claims. Nothing set forth in this Sponsor Limited Guarantee shall confer or give or shall be construed to confer or give to any Person (including any Person acting in a representative capacity) any rights or remedies against any Person including the Guarantors except as expressly set forth herein.

9. NATURE OF GUARANTEE. The Guarantors' liability hereunder is absolute, unconditional, irrevocable and continuing irrespective of any modification, amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from the Merger Agreement that may be agreed to by Parent or Merger Sub. The Guaranteed Party shall not be obligated to file any claim relating to the Obligations in the event that Parent or Merger Sub becomes subject to a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding, and the failure of the Guaranteed Party to so file shall not affect the Guarantors' obligation hereunder. In the event that any payment to the Guaranteed Party in respect of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned for any reason whatsoever, the Guarantors shall remain liable hereunder with respect to such Obligation as if such payment had not been made.

Upon and after the submission of any dispute to arbitration, the parties shall continue to exercise their remaining respective rights, and fulfill their remaining respective obligations under this Sponsor Limited Guarantee, except insofar as the same may relate directly to the matters in dispute.

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Merger Agreement.

1. Commitment. Sponsor hereby commits, subject solely to the terms and conditions set forth herein, that, immediately prior to or simultaneous with the Closing, it shall make loan to, or shall cause a loan made to, Parent in the aggregate principal amount of US$310,000,000.00 (the “Commitment”), solely for the purpose of Parent and/or Merger Sub funding, and to the extent necessary, to fund, the aggregate Per Share Merger Consideration, Per ADS Merger Consideration and Option Consideration (and any payments that may need to be made in respect of the Dissenting Shares) pursuant to and in accordance with the Merger Agreement, together with related fees and expenses of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company and their respective Subsidiaries in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. The amount of the Commitment to be funded under this letter agreement simultaneous with the Closing may be reduced in an amount specified by Parent (and agreed by the Company) but only to the extent that it will be possible for Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement with Sponsor contributing less than the full amount of the Commitment. The Sponsor may effect the funding of the Commitment directly or indirectly through one or more direct or indirect subsidiaries of the Sponsor or any other investment fund advised or managed by an Affiliate of the Sponsor or any other investment fund that is a limited partner of the Sponsor or of an Affiliate of the Sponsor.

2. Conditions. The Commitment shall be subject to (i) the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement by the Company, and (ii) the satisfaction or waiver at the Closing of each of the conditions to Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

3. Limited Guarantee. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this letter agreement, (a) the Sponsor Guarantor is executing and delivering to the Company a limited guarantee, dated as of the date hereof, related to Parent’s and Merger Sub’s payment obligations under the Merger Agreement (the “Sponsor Limited Guarantee”) and (b) the Founder Guarantor is executing and delivering to the Company a limited guarantee, dated as of the date hereof, related to Parent’s and Merger Sub’s payment obligations under the Merger Agreement (the “Founder Limited Guarantee”). Other than with respect to Sponsor Retained Claims (as defined under the Sponsor Limited Guarantee) and Founder Retained Claims (as defined under the Founder Limited Guarantee), the Company’s remedies against the Sponsor Guarantor and the Founder Guarantor under the Sponsor Limited Guarantee and Founder Limited Guarantee shall be, and are intended to be, the sole and exclusive direct or indirect remedies available to the Company and its Affiliates (other than the Rollover Shareholders or any of their Affiliates or any such Persons’ respective officers and directors) against (i) the Sponsor, Parent or Merger Sub and (ii) any former, current and future equity holders, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, Affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners or assignees of, the Sponsor, Parent or Merger Sub or any former, current or future stockholder, controlling person, director, officer, employee, general or limited partner, member, manager, Affiliate, agent or assignee of any of the foregoing (other than the Rollover Shareholders or any of their Affiliates or any such Persons’ respective officers and directors) (those persons and entities described in clause (ii) each being referred to as a “Non-Recourse Party”) in respect of any liabilities or obligations arising under, or in connection with, this letter agreement or the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including in the event Parent or Merger Sub breaches its obligations under the Merger Agreement, whether or not Parent’s or Merger Sub’s breach is caused by Sponsor’s breach of its obligations under this letter agreement.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall have the right to cause Parent to enforce this letter agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions hereof.

(b) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that Parent and/or the Company would be irreparably damaged if the Sponsor does not satisfy its obligation to fund the Commitment pursuant to Section 1 hereof, monetary damages would be difficult to determine and that neither Parent nor the Company would have any adequate remedy at law.

All rights, powers, and remedies provided under this letter agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise of any such right, power or remedy by Parent and/or the Company shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power or remedy by Parent and/or the Company.

(i) Amendment and Waiver. Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of this Agreement may be amended or waived only upon the prior written consent of Parent and each Rollover Shareholder.

(j) Delivery by Facsimile and Electronically.

In the event any dispute arises among the parties hereto out of or in relation to this Agreement, including any dispute regarding its breach, termination or validity, the parties shall attempt in the first instance to resolve such dispute through friendly consultations.

In any arbitration proceeding, any legal proceeding to enforce any arbitration award and in any other legal proceeding among the parties pursuant to or relating to this Agreement, each party expressly waives the defense of sovereign immunity and any other defense based on the fact or allegation that it is an agency or instrumentality of a sovereign state or is otherwise entitled to immunity.

Or, in each case, to such other address or to the attention of such other person as the recipient party shall have specified by prior written notice to the sending party.

Section 6.3 No Partnership, Agency, or Joint Venture. This Agreement is intended to create, and creates, a contractual relationship and is not intended to create, and does not create, any agency, partnership, joint venture or any like relationship between the parties hereto.

Section 6.4 Guarantee.

Section 6.5 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement which is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, such provision shall be interpreted to be only as broad as is enforceable.

Section 6.6 Entire Agreement; Benefit. This Agreement, the Merger Agreement and the Rollover Agreement embody the complete agreement and understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede and preempt any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties, written or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way. The representations and warranties set forth herein and the covenants set forth herein have been made solely for the benefit of the parties to this Agreement and (a) may be intended not as statements of fact, but rather as a way of allocating the risk to one of the parties if those statements prove to be inaccurate and (b) may apply standards of materiality in a way that is different from what may be viewed as material by shareholders of, or other investors in, the Company.

Section 6.7 Specific Performance. The Shareholder acknowledges that monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy in the event that any covenant or agreement in this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its terms, and it is therefore agreed that, in addition to and without limiting any other remedy or right it may have, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company will have the right to an injunction, temporary restraining order or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction enjoining any such breach and enforcing specifically the terms and provisions hereof. The Shareholder agrees not to oppose the granting of such relief in the event a court determines that such a breach has occurred, and to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy. All rights, powers, and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise of any thereof by Parent, Merger Sub or the Company shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power or remedy by such party.

Section 6.8 Amendments; Waivers. At any time prior to the Expiration Time, any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Shareholder, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company, or in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by Merger Sub, Parent or the Company in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder.

Section 6.9 Governing Law. (a) This Agreement (other than with respect to matters relating to fiduciary duties of the Company Board), and all claims or causes of action (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement (other than with respect to matters relating to fiduciary duties of the Company Board) or the negotiation, execution or performance hereof (other than with respect to matters relating to fiduciary duties of the Company Board) (including any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement), shall be interpreted, 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.

(b) All claims or causes of action (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to matters relating to fiduciary duties of the Company Board, shall be interpreted, construed, performed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the Cayman Islands 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.

Section 6.10 Consent to Jurisdiction. In the event any dispute arises among the parties hereto out of or in relation to this Agreement, including any dispute regarding its breach, termination or validity, the parties shall attempt in the first instance to resolve such dispute through friendly consultations. If any dispute has not been resolved by friendly consultations within thirty (30) days after any party has served written notice on the other parties requesting the commencement of such consultations, then any party may demand that the dispute be finally settled by arbitration in accordance with the following provisions of this Section 6.10. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules and the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre ("HKIAC") Procedures for the Administration of International Arbitration in force at the date of this Agreement, which rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Section 6.10. The place of the arbitration shall be Hong Kong and the language of the arbitration shall be English. The appointing authority shall be the HKIAC. There shall be three arbitrators. One arbitrator shall be nominated by the Company or the Parent, as applicable, and one arbitrator shall be nominated by the Shareholder. If any party shall abstain from nominating their arbitrator, the HKIAC shall appoint such arbitrator. The two arbitrators so chosen shall select a third arbitrator; provided that if such two arbitrators shall fail to choose a third arbitrator within 30 days after such two arbitrators have been selected, the HKIAC, upon the request of any party, shall appoint a third arbitrator. The third arbitrator shall be the presiding arbitrator. The arbitration shall be conducted in private. The parties agree that all documents and evidence submitted in the arbitration (including without limitation any statements of case and any interim or final award, as well as the fact that an arbitral award has been made) shall remain confidential both during and after any final award that is rendered unless the parties hereto otherwise agree in writing. Upon and after the submission of any dispute to arbitration, the parties shall continue to exercise their remaining respective rights, and fulfill their remaining respective obligations under this Agreement, except insofar as the same may relate directly to the matters in dispute. The parties hereby agree that any arbitration award rendered in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.10 shall be final and binding upon them, and the parties further agree that such award may be enforced by any court having jurisdiction over the party against which the award has been rendered or the assets of such party wherever the same may be located. In any arbitration proceeding, any legal proceeding to enforce any arbitration award and in any other legal proceeding among the parties pursuant to or relating to this Agreement, each party expressly waives the defense of sovereign immunity and any other defense based on the fact or allegation that it is an agency or instrumentality of a sovereign state or is otherwise entitled to immunity.

Section 6.11 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that any controversy or action which may arise under this Agreement is likely to involve complicated and difficult issues, and therefore each such party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right such party may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation or action directly or indirectly arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. 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 litigation or action, 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.

The Company is intended to be an express third party beneficiary of this Agreement, with full rights of enforcement of this Agreement against the Shareholder and the Indirect Owners. Other than as set forth in the preceding sentence, there are no third party beneficiaries of this Agreement and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer on any Person other than the parties hereto (and their respective successors, heirs and permitted assigns), any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities.

Section 6.13 Assignment; Binding Effect. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties or the Company, except that (i) Merger Sub may assign, in its sole discretion, any of or all of its rights, interest and obligations under this Agreement to Parent or to any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, but no such assignment shall relieve Merger Sub of its obligations hereunder and (ii) Parent and Merger Sub may assign this Agreement (in whole but not in part) in connection with a permitted assignment of the Merger Agreement by Parent or Merger Sub, as applicable. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and, in the case of the Shareholder, his estate, heirs, beneficiaries, personal representatives and executors. Parent shall cause Merger Sub, and any assignee thereof, to perform its obligations under this Agreement and shall be responsible for any failure of Merger Sub or such assignee to comply with any representation, warranty, covenant or other provision of this Agreement.

Section 6.14 Mutual Drafting. Each party hereto has participated in the drafting of this Agreement, which each party hereto acknowledges is the result of extensive negotiations between the parties hereto.

Section 6.15 Headings. Headings of the Articles and Sections of this Agreement are for convenience of the parties only and shall be given no substantive or interpretive effect whatsoever.

Section 6.4 Guarantee. (a) Mr. Yang hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee to Parent, Merger Sub and the Company the performance of all obligations of the Holdco under and in accordance with this Agreement and irrevocably guarantee to Parent and Merger Sub the performance of all obligations of the Holdco under and in accordance with the Rollover Agreement and agree, on demand and without any other notice whatsoever, to perform or cause to be performed all of the obligations of the Holdco hereunder and thereunder, and it shall not be necessary for Parent, Merger Sub or the Company, in order to enforce such performance by the Holdco or Mr. Yang, first to institute suit or pursue or exhaust any rights or remedies against the Holdco or others liable for the performance of such obligation, or to join the Holdco in any action to enforce the Holdco’s obligations hereunder, or to resort to any other means of obtaining performance from the Holdco.

(b) Mr. Yang hereby waives all defenses based upon suretyship or impairment of collateral, together with any defenses that it may have or assert with respect to the applicable guaranteed obligations (other than actual performance), including, without limitation, discharge in bankruptcy, failure of consideration, breach of warranty, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction, release, usury, lack of legal capacity, delay or lack of diligence.

Section 6.7 Specific Performance. The Shareholders acknowledge that monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy in the event that any covenant or agreement in this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its terms, and it is therefore agreed that, in addition to and without limiting any other remedy or right it may have, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company will have the right to an injunction, temporary restraining order or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction enjoining any such breach and enforcing specifically the terms and provisions hereof. The Shareholders agree not to oppose the granting of such relief in the event a court determines that such a breach has occurred, and to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy. All rights, powers, and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise of any thereof by Parent, Merger Sub or the Company shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power or remedy by such party.

Section 6.8 Amendments; Waivers. At any time prior to the Expiration Time, any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by Mr. Yang, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company, or in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by Merger Sub, Parent or the Company in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder.

Section 6.10 Consent to Jurisdiction. In the event any dispute arises among the parties hereto out of or in relation to this Agreement, including any dispute regarding its breach, termination or validity, the parties shall attempt in the first instance to resolve such dispute through friendly consultations. If any dispute has not been resolved by friendly consultations within thirty (30) days after any party has served written notice on the other parties requesting the commencement of such consultations, then any party may demand that the dispute be finally settled by arbitration in accordance with the following provisions of this Section 6.10. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules and the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre ("HKIAC") Procedures for the Administration of International Arbitration in force at the date of this Agreement, which rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Section 6.10. The place of the arbitration shall be Hong Kong and the language of the arbitration shall be English. The appointing authority shall be the HKIAC. There shall be three arbitrators. One arbitrator shall be nominated by the Company or the Parent, as applicable, and one arbitrator shall be nominated by the Shareholders. If any party shall abstain from nominating their arbitrator, the HKIAC shall appoint such arbitrator. The two arbitrators so chosen shall select a third arbitrator; provided that if such two arbitrators shall fail to choose a third arbitrator within 30 days after such two arbitrators have been selected, the HKIAC, upon the request of any party, shall appoint a third arbitrator. The third arbitrator shall be the presiding arbitrator. The arbitration shall be conducted in private. The parties agree that all documents and evidence submitted in the arbitration (including without limitation any statements of case and any interim or final award, as well as the fact that an arbitral award has been made) shall remain confidential both during and after any final award that is rendered unless the parties hereto otherwise agree in writing. Upon and after the submission of any dispute to arbitration, the parties shall continue to exercise their remaining respective rights, and fulfill their remaining respective obligations under this Agreement, except insofar as the same may relate directly to the matters in dispute. The parties hereby agree that any arbitration award rendered in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.10 shall be final and binding upon them, and the parties further agree that such award may be enforced by any court having jurisdiction over the party against which the award has been rendered or the assets of such party wherever the same may be located. In any arbitration proceeding, any legal proceeding to enforce any arbitration award and in any other legal proceeding among the parties pursuant to or relating to this Agreement, each party expressly waives the defense of sovereign immunity and any other defense based on the fact or allegation that it is an agency or instrumentality of a sovereign state or is otherwise entitled to immunity.

Section 6.12 Third Party Beneficiaries. The Company is intended to be an express third party beneficiary of this Agreement, with full rights of enforcement of this Agreement against the Shareholders. Other than as set forth in the preceding sentence, there are no third party beneficiaries of this Agreement and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer on any Person other than the parties hereto (and their respective successors, heirs and permitted assigns), any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities.

Section 6.13 Assignment; Binding Effect. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties or the Company, except that (i) Merger Sub may assign, in its sole discretion, any of or all of its rights, interest and obligations under this Agreement to Parent or to any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, but no such assignment shall relieve Merger Sub of its obligations hereunder and (ii) Parent and Merger Sub may assign this Agreement (in whole but not in part) in connection with a permitted assignment of the Merger Agreement by Parent or Merger Sub, as applicable. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and, in the case of Mr. Yang, his estate, heirs, beneficiaries, personal representatives and executors. Parent shall cause Merger Sub, and any assignee thereof, to perform its obligations under this Agreement and shall be responsible for any failure of Merger Sub or such assignee to comply with any representation, warranty, covenant or other provision of this Agreement.

Section 6.15 Headings. Headings of the Articles and Sections of this Agreement are for convenience of the parties only and shall be given no substantive or interpretive effect whatsoever.
