Article IV

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 4.1           Termination. This Agreement shall terminate automatically and become void and of no further force or effect, without any notice or other action by any Person, upon the earliest of (a) as to each Shareholder, the written consent of the General Partner and such Shareholder, (b) the consummation of the Acquisition Transaction, and (c) the date on which the Transaction Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms. Upon termination of this Agreement, no party shall have any further obligations or liabilities under this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) nothing set forth in this Section 4.1 shall prevent any party from seeking any remedies (at law or in equity) against any other party or relieve any party from liability for any breach of this Agreement prior to termination hereof, and (ii) the provisions of this Article IV shall survive any termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Transaction Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.1(c) or Section 9.1(d) thereof, and such termination of the Transaction Agreement is due to or arises from any breach by any Shareholder of any of its representations, warranties, covenants and agreements herein, this Agreement shall survive such termination of the Transaction Agreement and shall terminate upon the date falling twelve (12) months after such termination of the Transaction Agreement.

Section 4.2           Fees and Expenses. Except as set forth in the Transaction Agreement, each Party shall be responsible for and pay their own fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection herewith and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the fees, costs and expenses of their financial advisors, accountants and counsel.

Section 4.3           Notices. All notices, requests and other communications to any Party hereunder shall be in writing (including facsimile transmission) and shall be given, (a) if to the General Partner, in accordance with the provisions of the Transaction Agreement, and (b) if to the Shareholder, to the Shareholder’s address set forth on a signature page hereto, or to such other address as the Shareholder may hereafter specify in writing to the General Partner for such purpose.

Section 4.4           Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 4.5           Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned, directly or indirectly, including by operation of law, by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties.

Section 4.6           Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly provided otherwise herein, this Agreement is exclusively for the benefit of the Parties, and their respective successors and permitted assigns and shall not be deemed to confer upon or give to any other third party any remedy, claim, liability, reimbursement, cause of action or other right, in each case whether by virtue of the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Ordinance (Cap. 623 of the Laws of Hong Kong) or any similar law in other jurisdiction to enforce any of the terms to this Agreement.

Section 4.7           Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Schedule attached hereto) and the Transaction Agreement and the other agreements contemplated thereby constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that, in entering into this Agreement, such Party has not relied on any promises or assurances, written or oral, that are not reflected in this Agreement (including the Schedule attached hereto).

Section 4.8           Governing Law. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action (whether in contract, tort or statute) or matters (including matters of validity, construction, effect, performance and remedies) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (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) shall be governed by and construed exclusively in accordance with the Laws of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (“Hong Kong”) (without giving effect to any choice of law principles thereof that would cause the application of the Laws of another jurisdiction).

Section 4.9           Dispute Resolution. Any dispute, controversy or claim (including any dispute relating to the existence, validity, interpretation, performance, breach or termination of this Agreement or any dispute regarding non-contractual obligations arising out of or relating to this Agreement) shall be referred to and finally resolved in accordance with the ICC Rules of Arbitration by a panel of three arbitrators. The arbitral award shall be final and binding upon all Parties. The seat of arbitration shall be in Hong Kong. The language of arbitration shall be English. The governing law of this arbitration clause shall be the Laws of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. The Parties agree that any award rendered by the arbitral tribunal may be enforced by any court having jurisdiction over the Parties or over the Parties’ assets wherever the same may be located. To the extent that any Party has or hereafter may acquire any immunity (sovereign or otherwise) from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from any jurisdiction or any court or from set-off or any legal process (whether service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) with respect to itself or any of its assets, whether or not held for its own account, such Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim such immunity in any disputes, controversies or claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including in any judicial proceedings ancillary to an arbitration hereunder, including without limitation immunity from any judicial proceeding to compel arbitration, for interim relief in aid of arbitration, or to enforce any arbitral award, immunity from service of process, immunity from jurisdiction of any court, and immunity of any of its property from execution. Nothing in this Section 4.9 shall be construed as preventing any Party from seeking an injunction, temporary restraining order or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to Section 4.10 pending final determination of the dispute by the arbitral tribunal.

Section 4.10         Specific Performance. The Parties acknowledge that the rights of each Party to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby are unique and recognize and affirm that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by any Party, money damages may be inadequate and the non-breaching Party may have no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, the Parties agree that any non-breaching Party may have the right to seek to enforce its rights and any other Party’s obligations hereunder by an action or actions for specific performance and/or injunctive relief (without posting of bond or other security), including any order, injunction or decree sought by such non-breaching Party to cause the other Party to perform its/their respective agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and to cure breaches of this Agreement, without the necessity of proving actual harm and/or damages or posting a bond or other security therefore. Each Party further agrees that the only permitted objection that it may raise in response to any action for any such equitable relief is that it contests the existence of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement.

Section 4.11         Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or e-mail shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of the Agreement.

Section 4.12         Amendments. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented at any time only by the written consent of all of the Parties hereto, and any amendment, modification or supplement so effected shall be binding on all of the Parties hereto.

Section 4.13         Rights Cumulative. Except as otherwise expressly limited by this Agreement, all rights and remedies of each of the Parties under this Agreement will be cumulative, and the exercise of one or more rights or remedies will not preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available under this Agreement or Law.

Section 4.14         Capacity as Shareholder. Each Shareholder signs this Agreement solely in such Shareholder’s capacity as an NFC Shareholder, and not in such Shareholder’s capacity as a director, officer or employee of NFC or in such Shareholder’s capacity as a trustee or fiduciary of any employee benefit plan or trust. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to impose any obligation or limitation on votes or actions taken by any director, officer, employee, agent or other representative of any Shareholder or by any Shareholder that is a natural person, in each case, in his or her capacity as a director or officer of NFC.

Section 4.15         Further Assurances. Each of the Parties shall execute such documents and perform such further acts as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions hereof and the actions contemplated hereby.
