Recent development of relevant laws and background of the loans

On April 27, 2013, China Insurance Regulatory Commission (“CIRC”) issued the Decision on Revising the Provisions of the Supervision and Administration of Specialized Insurance Agencies (the “Decision on Revising the Agency Provisions”), pursuant to which, CIRC has mandated any insurance agency established subsequent to the Decision on Revising the Agency Provisions to meet a minimum registered capital requirement of RMB50 million. On May 16, 2013 , CIRC issued Notice for Further Clarification on Related Issues of Access to Professional Insurance Intermediary Market (the “Notice”), pursuant to which, professional insurance agencies established prior to the issuance of the Decision on Revising the Agency Provisions, with registered capital less than RMB50 million, can continuous operation of their existing business within the provinces where they have the registered office or branch office, but shall not set up any new branches in any province where they do not have the registered office or any branch office.

 

As of the date hereof, Anhou, a professional insurance agency with a PRC nationwide license, has a registered capital in the amount of RMB10 million. The registered office and branch offices of Anhou currently are all in Henan province. To better implement its expansion strategies, Anhou intends to increase its registered capital to RMB50 million to meet the requirement of CIRC so that it can set up new branches in any province beyond its current operations in Mainland China.

 

Due to certain restriction on direct foreign investment in insurance agency business under current PRC legal regime, Anhou has sought certain investments made by the Investor Borrowers and they may need funds through individual loans. Upon the completion of the contemplated increase of registered capital of Anhou, each Investor Borrowers shall enter into the Variable Interest Entities Agreement with the WFOE, the wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of the Company, Anhou and other parties so as to consolidate any additional VIE interest generated from the said registered capital increase into the Company.

The foregoing description of the loan arrangements are qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Investor Loan Agreements, which are filed as Exhibit 10.2-10-4 hereto, and incorporated, herein by reference.
