4.. 股份转让限制（Restrictions on Stock Transfer）

4.1 股份转让限制   股东不得给予、出售、出让、转让、抵押、创建担保物权、留置、信托、遗赠或者以其他任何方式处置其全部或部分股票（以下单独或统称为“转让”）；上述股票不得在公司账面进行转让，除非及直至该股东取得所有其他股东的事先书面同意，或者以其他方式符合本协议第4条的要求。

（Stock Transfer Restrictions. No Shareholder shall give, sell, assign, transfer, encumber, create a security interest in or lien on, place in trust, bequeath or otherwise dispose of in any manner whatsoever (individually and collectively, "Transfer") all or any part of his Shares, and such Shares shall not be transferred on the books of the Corporation, unless and until he has obtained the prior written consent of all of the other Shareholders (the "Other Shareholders"), or has otherwise complied with the requirements of this Article 4.）

 

4.2优先购买权   如果任何股东（ “转让方”）想要转让其全部或部分股票，应当书面通知（“通知”）其他股东和公司其转让意图，包括关于第三方（“第三方”）以优惠的价格和其他书面载明的条款与条件（“条款与条件”）购买上述股票（“被提议转让的股票”）及法定股本所有其他已发行股票（“其他股票”）的善意公正收购提议的书面证据。上述通知应当被视为转让方在45天的期限内将其所有被提议转让的股票出售给公司和其他股东的“提议”。公司享有按照每股的条款与条件购买所有或任何被提议转让股票的第一购买权。公司就上述提议做出的决定应当经董事会一致通过，但是不包括作为转让方的董事或者经转让方指定的董事（如果有的话）。其他股东均有权按照每股的条款与条件接受转让提议，根据其持股比例（不包括被提议转让的股票）购买所有或任何公司拒绝接受的被提议转让股票（“被拒绝的股票”）。在上述45天期限内，公司及其他股东应当相互告知对方自己关于转让提议的意图，使每一方都能够在45天的期限内行使第4.2条项下授予的权利。转让方可以在上述45天期限届满后15天内，将公司和其他股东拒绝购买的上述股票转让给第三方（“第三方转让股票”）

（Right of First Refusal. If a Shareholder (a "Transferor") desires to Transfer all or any part of his Shares, he shall give to the Other Shareholders and the Corporation written notice (the "Notice") of this desire including written evidence of a bona fide arm's length offer from a third party (the "Third Party") to purchase such Shares (the "Offered Shares") plus all of the other issued and outstanding Shares of Authorized Stock (the "Other Shares") for a price and on such other terms and conditions as are specified in such writing (the "Terms and Conditions"). Such Notice shall be deemed an "Offer" on the part of the Transferor for a period of 45 days to sell to the Corporation and to the Other Shareholders all of the Offered Shares. The Corporation shall have the first option to purchase all or any part of the Offered Shares on the Terms and Conditions on a per Share basis. A decision by the Corporation with respect to such Offer shall be made by the Board acting unanimously, except, however, not including the director who is, or who is nominated by, the Transferor, if any. Each of the Other Shareholders shall have the option to accept the offer to purchase all or any part of any of the offered Shares with respect to which the Corporation has not accepted the Offer (the "Rejected Shares") in an amount equal to its proportionate ownership of the Shares (excluding Offered Shares) on the Terms and Conditions on a per Share basis.）During such 45-day period the Corporation and the Other Shareholders shall keep each other informed as to each of their intentions with respect to the offer so that each may, within such 45-day period, exercise the rights granted in this Section 4.2. For a period of 15 days commencing on the expiration of the foregoing 45-day period, the Transferor may Transfer to the Third Party the Offered Shares with respect to which neither the Corporation nor the Other Shareholders has accepted an offer (the "Third Party Transfer Shares") .

 

4.3要求订立的协议   股东转让其股票给第三方时必须遵守下列条件，但是转让法定股本已发行股票的除外：（1）上述第三方必须向公司和其他股东提交一份协议，以公司和其他股东满意的形式和内容，表示自己会承担转让方在本协议项下的所有义务，同意遵守本协议的所有规定；（2）上述第三方应当具备能够让公司和其他股东满意的信誉和其他能力来履行本协议项下的义务。

（Agreement Required. It shall be a condition of any Shareholder's Transfer of any Shares to a Third Party, except to the extent that such Transfer is of all issued and outstanding Shares of Authorized Stock, that (i) such Third Party shall have delivered to the Corporation and the Other Shareholders an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation and the other Shareholders, assuming all obligations of the Transferor under this Agreement and agreeing to abide by all of the provisions of this Agreement; and (ii) such Third Party shall possess, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Corporation and the other Shareholders, sufficient creditworthiness and other ability to enable the fulfillment of obligations pursuant to this Agreement.）

 

 

4.4  被允许的股票处置    即使本协议有其他规定，ABC有限公司仍然有权根据第4.3条，随时将其任何及所有股票转让给属于公司“关联方“的任何公司或实体，定义参见1993年证券法C规则.

（Permitted Dispositions. Subject to Section 4.3, but notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, ABC, SA shall be entitled to Transfer any and all of its Shares, at any time and from time to time, to any corporation or other entity which would constitute an "Affiliate" of ABC, SA as such term is defined in Regulation C of the Securities Act of 1933.）

 

4.5 甲某终止聘用关系、死亡或伤残后的股票转让   如果甲某或其继任者的聘用关系终止，或者甲某发生死亡或伤残（定义参见下文），甲某或者其遗产执行人或代表，视情况而定，应当将其全部股票出售给公司，公司应当购买该股票；如果甲某或其任命的人员担任公司的董事或高级职员，应当立即终止任职。上述股票的购买价格是由公司审计师确定的股票的公平市价，审计师确定的市场价格应当具有最终决定性和约束力。根据第4.5条，伤残应当与第5.4条项下保障生意买卖保险中的相关含义相同；但是，如果在确定伤残时没有上述生效的保单，伤残是指致使甲某或其继任者无法以董事会确定的能够让公司满意的方式履行其聘用协议项下职责的疾病。

（Transfer on the Termination of Employment, Death or Disability of Doe. In the event of the termination of employment under the Doe Employment Agreement or any successor thereto, or the death or disability (as defined below) of Doe, he or his estate or his representative, as the case may be, shall sell to the Corporation, and the Corporation shall purchase, all of the Shares owned by Doe, and if Doe or any nominee of his is serving as a director or officer of the Corporation such service shall immediately terminate. The purchase price for such Shares shall be the fair market value of such Shares as determined by the Corporation's auditors, such determination to be conclusive and binding for such purpose. For the purposes of this Section 4.5 disability shall have the same meaning provided in the policy of buy-sell insurance referred to in Section 5.4; provided, however, that if no such insurance policy is in effect at the time the determination of disability must be made, disability shall mean a condition preventing Doe from performing his duties under the Doe Employment Agreement, or any successor thereto, in a manner satisfactory to the Corporation, as determined by the Board.  ）

The Corporation, unless otherwise determined by the Board, shall at all times keep in full force and effect buy-sell insurance respecting Doe as insured naming the Corporation as owner beneficiary in such amounts, and on such other terms and conditions, as the Board shall decide.
