(1)
These shares may be represented by the Registrant's ADSs, each of which represents six (6)
ordinary shares. The Registrants' ADSs issuable upon deposit of the ordinary shares registered hereby have been
registered under a separate registration statement on Form F-6 (333-170171).
(2)
Represents ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of options and vesting of restricted share
units granted under the 2005 Share Option Scheme (the "Option Scheme") and 2009 Share
Incentive Plan (the " Incentive Plan" and, together with the Option Scheme, the "Plans").
Pursuant to Rule 416(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"),
this Registration Statement also covers an indeterminate number of additional shares which may
be offered and issued to prevent dilution from share splits, share dividends or similar
transactions as provided in the Plans. Any ordinary shares covered by an award granted under
the Plans (or portion of an award) that terminates, expires or lapses for any reason will be
deemed not to have been issued for purposes of determining the maximum aggregate number of
ordinary shares that may be issued under the Plans.
(3)
The amount to be registered represents ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding
options and vesting of restricted share units granted under the Plans, including 5,816,402
restricted share units with no exercise price. The corresponding proposed maximum offering
price per share represents the weighted average exercise price of the total outstanding
options and the estimated maximum offering price of the restricted share units. Solely for the
purpose of calculating the registration fee under Rule 457(h) and Rule 457(c) under the
Securities Act, the proposed maximum offering price per share of the restricted share units is
estimated based on the average of the high and low prices for the registrant's ADSs as quoted
on the Nasdaq Global Market on January 26, 2011.
(4)
These shares are reserved for future award grants under the Plans, and the proposed maximum
offering price per share, which is estimated solely for the purposes of calculating the
registration fee under Rule 457(h) and Rule 457(c) under the Securities Act, is based on the
average of the high and low prices for the registrant's ADSs as quoted on the Nasdaq Global
Market on January 26, 2011.

provide for indemnification of directors and officers, except to the extent any such provision may
be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide
indemnification against civil fraud or the consequences of committing a crime. The Registrant's
fourth amended and restated articles of association, adopted by its shareholders on October 19,
2010, provides that the Registrant shall indemnify its directors and officers against
3

actions, costs, charges, expenses, losses, or damages incurred by such persons in their
capacity as such, except through their fraud or dishonesty.
Pursuant to the indemnification agreements, the form of which was filed as Exhibit 10.3 to the
Registrant's registration statement on Form F-1, as amended (File No. 333-170063), the Registrant
has agreed to indemnify its directors and officers against certain liabilities and expenses
incurred by such persons in connection with claims made by reason of their being such a director or
officer.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted
to directors, officers or persons controlling the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions,
the Registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
The Registrant also maintains a directors and officers liability insurance policy for its
directors and officers.

Undertakings
(a)
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i)
to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act;
(ii)
to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the
effective date of this registration statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental
change in the information set forth in this registration statement; and
(iii)
to include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material
change to that information in the registration statement;
provided
,
however
, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) above do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is
contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant
pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by
reference in this Registration Statement;
(2)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act,
each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that
time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3)
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the
securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b)
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant
to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that
is incorporated by reference in this registration statement shall be

Table of Contents
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein,
and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
(c)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of
the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by
a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of
any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person
in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the
opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a
court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
