B. Pubco, Platinum Beijing, the Company and the Selling Shareholders, desire to make certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in connection with the Exchange and also to prescribe various conditions to the Exchange.

The execution and delivery of this Agreement do not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and compliance with the provisions of this Agreement will not, conflict with, or result in any breach or violation of, or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of or “put” right with respect to any obligation or to loss of a material benefit under, or result in the creation of any lien upon any of the properties or assets of Pubco under, (i) its articles of incorporation, bylaws or other charter documents of Pubco, (ii) any loan or credit agreement, note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease or other agreement, instrument, permit, concession, franchise or license applicable to Pubco, its properties or assets, or (iii) subject to the governmental filings and other matters referred to in the following sentence, any judgment, order, decree, statute, law, ordinance, rule, regulation or arbitration award applicable to Pubco, its properties or assets, other than, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), any such conflicts, breaches, violations, defaults, rights, losses or liens that individually or in the aggregate could not have a material adverse effect with respect to Pubco or could not prevent, hinder or materially delay the ability of Pubco to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

15 |
(i) Litigation; Labor Matters; Compliance with Laws.
(i) There is no suit, action or proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of Pubco, threatened against or affecting Pubco or any basis for any such suit, action, proceeding or investigation that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect with respect to Pubco or prevent, hinder or materially delay the ability of Pubco to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, nor is there any judgment, decree, injunction, rule or order of any Governmental Entity or arbitrator outstanding against Pubco having, or which, insofar as reasonably could be foreseen by Pubco, in the future could have, any such effect.
(ii) Pubco is not a party to, or bound by, any collective bargaining agreement, contract or other agreement or understanding with a labor union or labor organization, nor is it the subject of any proceeding asserting that it has committed an unfair labor practice or seeking to compel it to bargain with any labor organization as to wages or conditions of employment nor is there any strike, work stoppage or other labor dispute involving it pending or, to its knowledge, threatened, any of which could have a material adverse effect with respect to Pubco.

(k) Certain Employee Payments. Pubco is not a party to any employment agreement which could result in the payment to any current, former or future director or employee of Pubco of any money or other property or rights or accelerate or provide any other rights or benefits to any such employee or director as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, whether or not (i) such payment, acceleration or provision would constitute a “parachute payment” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code), or (ii) some other subsequent action or event would be required to cause such payment, acceleration or provision to be triggered.
(l) Tax Returns and Tax Payments.
(i) Pubco has timely filed with the appropriate taxing authorities all Tax Returns required to be filed by it (taking into account all applicable extensions). All such Tax Returns are true, correct and complete in all respects. All Taxes due and owing by Pubco has been paid (whether or not shown on any Tax Return and whether or not any Tax Return was required). Pubco is not currently the beneficiary of any extension of time within which to file any Tax Return or pay any Tax. No claim has ever been made in writing or otherwise addressed to Pubco by a taxing authority in a jurisdiction where Pubco does not file Tax Returns that it is or may be subject to taxation by that jurisdiction. The unpaid Taxes of Pubco did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements included in the Pubco SEC Documents, exceed the reserve for Tax liability (excluding any reserve for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences between book and Tax income) set forth on the face of the financial statements (rather than in any notes thereto). Since the date of the most recent financial statements included in the Pubco SEC Documents, Pubco has not incurred any liability for Taxes outside the ordinary course of business consistent with past custom and practice. As of the Closing Date, the unpaid Taxes of Pubco will not exceed the reserve for Tax liability (excluding any reserve for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences between book and Tax income) set forth on the books and records of Pubco.
16 |
(ii) No material claim for unpaid Taxes has been made or become a lien against the property of Pubco or is being asserted against Pubco, no audit of any Tax Return of Pubco is being conducted by a tax authority, and no extension of the statute of limitations on the assessment of any Taxes has been granted by Pubco and is currently in effect.

Pubco holds all permits and authorizations required under applicable Environmental Laws, unless the failure to hold such permits and authorizations would not have a material adverse effect on Pubco, and is compliance with all terms, conditions and provisions of all such permits and authorizations in all material respects. No releases of Hazardous Materials have occurred at, from, in, to, on or under any real property currently or formerly owned, operated or leased by Pubco or any predecessor thereof and no Hazardous Materials are present in, on, about or migrating to or from any such property which could result in any liability to Pubco. Pubco has not transported or arranged for the treatment, storage, handling, disposal, or transportation of any Hazardous Material to any off-site location which could result in any liability to Pubco. Pubco has no liability, absolute or contingent, under any Environmental Law that if enforced or collected would have a material adverse effect on Pubco. There are no past, pending or threatened claims under Environmental Laws against Pubco and Pubco is not aware of any facts or circumstances that could reasonably be expected to result in a liability or claim against Pubco pursuant to Environmental Laws.
(n) Material Contract Defaults. Pubco is not, or has not, received any notice or has any knowledge that any other party is, in default in any respect under any Pubco Material Contract; and there has not occurred any event that with the lapse of time or the giving of notice or both would constitute such a material default. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Pubco Material Contract” means any contract, agreement or commitment that is effective as of the Closing Date to which Pubco is a party (i) with expected receipts or expenditures in excess of $25,000, (ii) requiring Pubco to indemnify any person, (iii) granting exclusive rights to any party, (iv) evidencing indebtedness for borrowed or loaned money in excess of $25,000 or more, including guarantees of such indebtedness, or (v) which, if breached by Pubco in such a manner would (A) permit any other party to cancel or terminate the same (with or without notice of passage of time) or (B) provide a basis for any other party to claim money damages (either individually or in the aggregate with all other such claims under that contract) from Pubco or (C) give rise to a right of acceleration of any material obligation or loss of any material benefit under any such contract, agreement or commitment.
(o) Accounts Receivable. All of the accounts receivable of Pubco that are reflected in the Pubco SEC Documents or the accounting records of Pubco as of the Closing Date (collectively, the “Pubco Accounts Receivable”) represent or will represent valid obligations arising from sales actually made or services actually performed in the ordinary course of business and are not subject to any defenses, counterclaims, or rights of set off other than those arising in the ordinary course of business and for which adequate reserves have been established. The Pubco Accounts Receivable are fully collectible to the extent not reserved for on the balance sheet on which they are shown.
(p) Properties. Pubco has valid land use rights for all real property that is material to its business and good, clear and marketable title to all the tangible properties and tangible assets reflected in the latest balance sheet as being owned by Pubco or acquired after the date thereof which are, individually or in the aggregate, material to Pubco’s business (except properties sold or otherwise disposed of since the date thereof in the ordinary course of business), free and clear of all material liens, encumbrances, claims, security interest, options and restrictions of any nature whatsoever. Any real property and facilities held under lease by Pubco are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases of which Pubco is in compliance, except as could not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse effect.

All of Pubco’s licenses to use Software programs are current and have been paid for the appropriate number of users.

(v) Money Laundering Laws. The operations of Pubco are and have been conducted at all times in compliance with the Money Laundering Laws, and no action, suit or proceeding by or before any court or governmental agency, authority or body or any arbitrator involving Pubco with respect to the Money Laundering Laws is pending or, to the best knowledge of Pubco, threatened.

In the event of termination of this Agreement by either the Company or Pubco as provided in Section 6.01, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and have no effect, without any liability or obligation on the part of Pubco or the Company, other than the provisions of Section 4.01(a) and this Section 6.02. Nothing contained in this Section shall relieve any party for any breach of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement.

ARTICLE VII
INDEMNIFICATION AND RELATED MATTERS
7.01 Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive until twelve (12) months after the Effective Time (except for with respect to Taxes which shall survive for the applicable statute of limitations plus 90 days, and covenants that by their terms survive for a longer period).
7.02 Indemnification.
(a) Irrespective of any due diligence investigation conducted by the Company with regard to the transactions contemplated hereby, Pubco shall indemnify and hold the Selling Shareholders, the Existing Company Entities, and the Existing Company Entities’ officers and directors (the “Company Representatives”) harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, damages, losses, deficiencies, costs, penalties, interest and expenses (including, but not limited to, any and all expenses whatsoever reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever) (collectively, “Losses”) to which Pubco, the Selling Shareholders, the Existing Company Entities, or any of the Company Representatives may become subject resulting from or arising out: (1) of any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant made by Pubco as set forth herein; or (2) any and all liabilities arising out of or in connection with: (A) any of the assets of Pubco prior to the Closing; or (B) the operations of Pubco prior to the Closing.
(b) The Existing Company Entities shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold Pubco harmless from and against any and all Losses to which Pubco may become subject to resulting from or arising out of any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant made by any of the Existing Company Entities as set forth herein.
22 |
7.03 Notice of Indemnification. Promptly after the receipt by any indemnified party (the “Indemnitee”) of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding against such Indemnitee, such Indemnitee shall, if a claim with respect thereto is or may be made against any indemnifying party (the “Indemnifying Party”) pursuant to this Article VII, give such Indemnifying Party written notice of the commencement of such action or proceeding and give such Indemnifying Party a copy of such claim and/or process and all legal pleadings in connection therewith. The failure to give such notice shall not relieve any Indemnifying Party of any of its indemnification obligations contained in this Article VII, except where, and solely to the extent that, such failure actually and materially prejudices the rights of such Indemnifying Party. Such Indemnifying Party shall have, upon request within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, but not in any event after the settlement or compromise of such claim, the right to defend, at its own expense and by its own counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee, any such matter involving the asserted liability of the Indemnitee; provided, however, that if the Indemnitee determines that there is a reasonable probability that a claim may materially and adversely affect it, other than solely as a result of money payments required to be reimbursed in full by such Indemnifying Party under this Article VII or if a conflict of interest exists between Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnitee shall have the right to defend, compromise or settle such claim or suit; and, provided, further, that such settlement or compromise shall not, unless consented to in writing by such Indemnifying Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, be conclusive as to the liability of such Indemnifying Party to the Indemnitee. In any event, the Indemnitee, such Indemnifying Party and its counsel shall cooperate in the defense against, or compromise of, any such asserted liability, and in cases where the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense, the Indemnitee shall have the right to participate in the defense of such asserted liability at the Indemnitee’s own expense. In the event that such Indemnifying Party shall decline to participate in or assume the defense of such action, prior to paying or settling any claim against which such Indemnifying Party is, or may be, obligated under this Article VII to indemnify an Indemnitee, the Indemnitee shall first supply such Indemnifying Party with a copy of a final court judgment or decree holding the Indemnitee liable on such claim or, failing such judgment or decree, the terms and conditions of the settlement or compromise of such claim. An Indemnitee’s failure to supply such final court judgment or decree or the terms and conditions of a settlement or compromise to such Indemnifying Party shall not relieve such Indemnifying Party of any of its indemnification obligations contained in this Article VII, except where, and solely to the extent that, such failure actually and materially prejudices the rights of such Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party is defending the claim as set forth above, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to settle the claim only with the consent of the Indemnitee.
