(c) by Fosun, if (i) any Chindex Party shall have breached in any material respect any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement or the Chuangxin Share Transfer Agreement, (ii) such breach or misrepresentation is not cured within sixty (60) days after Chindex or such Chindex Party receives written notice thereof from Fosun (or such shorter period between the date of such notice and the JV Closing), and (iii) such breach or misrepresentation would cause any of the conditions set forth in Section 6.01(b), 6.03(a), 6.03(b) or 6.03(c) not to be satisfied;

(d) by either Fosun or Chindex if the JV Closing shall not have occurred by September 1, 2011 (the “Termination Trigger Date”); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this paragraph (d) shall not be available to any Party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement shall have been the principal cause of, or shall have resulted in, the failure of the JV Closing to occur on or prior to such date;

(e) by either Fosun or Chindex in the event that any Governmental Authority shall have issued a Governmental Order or taken any other action restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting, or altering, materially and adversely (to Fosun, Warrantor or Chindex), the material terms of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and such Governmental Order shall have become final and nonappealable.

Section 7.02 Other Actions in Respect of Termination. In the event of any termination of this Agreement, the Parties agree that the Chuangxin Share Transfer Agreement shall immediately terminate, and the Parties shall execute (or cause to be executed) such other documents as may be necessary to effect such termination. This Section 7.02 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

Section 7.03 Effect of Termination; Survival. Any termination under this Article VII that is effective as to any Party shall be effective as to all Parties. Unless agreed otherwise, in the event of termination of this Agreement as provided herein, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and no Party shall be obligated to continue to perform under this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) nothing herein shall relieve any Party from liability for any breach of this Agreement that occurred before such termination, (ii) the terms of Section 2.05, Section 2.06(a), Section 5.03, Section 7.02, Article VIII, and Article IX (and any other provision of this Agreement that by its terms is intended to survive) shall survive any such termination.

ARTICLE VIII

INDEMNIFICATION; REMEDIES; LIMITATION OF LIABILITY; DISPUTE RESOLUTION; ARBITRATION

Section 8.01 Indemnification.

(a) Chindex and New BVI agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold harmless the Fosun Parties, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and Affiliates to the fullest extent lawful, from and against (i) any and all Losses arising out of or resulting from any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations, warranties, covenants or contractual obligations made by the Chindex Parties and/or any of their Affiliates in this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Agreements and (ii) any and all Chindex Retained Liabilities.

(b) Fosun, FSPV and Warrantor agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold harmless the Chindex Parties and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and Affiliates to the fullest extent lawful, from and against (i) any and all Losses arising out of or resulting from any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations, warranties, covenants or contractual obligations made by the Fosun Parties and/or any of their Affiliates in this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Agreements, (ii) any and all Fosun Retained Liabilities (as such term is defined in the Chuangxin Share Transfer Agreement) and (iii) any and all liabilities, obligations and commitments arising out the Chuangxin Restructuring (as defined in the Chuangxin Share Transfer Agreement), the conduct of the businesses of the Divested Companies (as defined in the Chuangxin Share Transfer Agreement), whether before or after the JV Closing or the Chuangxin Closing, or the failure of Seller to obtain any Seller Governmental Approval (as defined in the Chuangxin Share Transfer Agreement).

(c) Subject to Section 8.01(d), a Party obligated to provide indemnification under this Section 8.01 (an “Indemnifying Party”) with respect to a claim brought by an unrelated third party, shall reimburse the indemnified parties of the applicable other Party (each an “Indemnified Party”) for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) as they are incurred in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending any such action, suit, claim or proceeding (including any inquiry or investigation) whether or not an Indemnified Party is a party thereto. It is understood and agreed that the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any action, suit, claim or proceeding or related action, suit, claim or proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Parties.

(d) An Indemnified Party shall give written notice to the Indemnifying Party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification promptly after the discovery by such party of any matters giving rise to a claim for indemnification; provided that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 8.01 unless and to the extent that the Indemnifying Party shall have been materially prejudiced by the failure of such Indemnified Party to so notify such Indemnifying Party. In case any such action, suit, claim or proceeding is brought against an Indemnified Party by an unrelated third party, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to hire, at

its own expense, separate counsel and participate in the defense thereof; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume and conduct the defense, unless the Indemnifying Party determines otherwise and following such determination the Indemnified Party assumes responsibility for conducting the defense (in which case the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with assuming and conducting the defense, it being understood and agreed that the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any action, suit, claim or proceeding or related action, suit, claim or proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Parties). If the Indemnifying Party assumes and conducts the defense as provided in the previous sentence, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the latter in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, suit, claim or proceeding effected without its written consent; provided, however, the Indemnifying Party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. The Indemnifying Party further agrees that it will not, without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof in any pending or threatened action, suit, claim or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified Party is an actual or potential party to such action, suit, claim or proceeding) unless such settlement or compromise includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such action, suit, claim or proceeding.

(e) The obligations of the Indemnifying Party under this Section 8.01 shall survive the closing or termination of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. The agreements contained in this Section 8.01 shall be in addition to any other rights of the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party or others, at common law or otherwise.

(f) The amount the Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party with respect to a claim made pursuant to this Section 8.01 shall be an amount equal to the Loss incurred by the Indemnified Party with respect to such claim; provided that the amount of any Losses incurred by the Indemnified Party shall be reduced by the amount of any insurance benefit received by the Indemnified Party in respect of such Losses, and provided, further, that any liability for indemnification under this Agreement shall be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such liability constituting a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or contractual obligation.

Section 8.02 Dispute Resolution. Subject to Section 8.04 and Section 8.05 hereof, in the event any dispute, controversy or claim arises out of or relating to any provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Party may notify the applicable other Party or Parties in writing that a dispute, controversy or claim exists and that it is prepared to negotiate a resolution of such dispute, controversy or claim. In the event a Party delivers such notice the applicable Parties shall first attempt to resolve the dispute, controversy or claim by good faith negotiation. In the event that the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute, controversy or claim within sixty (60) days after the delivery of such notice, any Party may submit any such dispute, controversy or claim

(including the obligation to arbitrate disputes), for final resolution by arbitration pursuant to Section 8.03 below.

Section 8.03 Arbitration.

(a) Subject to Sections 8.02, 8.04 and 8.05, any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or related to this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including the obligation to arbitrate disputes), shall be resolved by arbitration under the Arbitration Rules of the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (“UNCITRAL”) as modified by this Section 8.03, which rules in force at the time of arbitration (the “UNCITRAL Rules”) are deemed to be incorporated into this Section. The Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (“HKIAC”) shall be the appointing authority under the UNCITRAL Rules, and the HKIAC schedule of fees and costs shall apply.

(b) The seat or legal place of arbitration shall be Hong Kong; provided, that the arbitrators may at their discretion hold hearings in mainland China or such other locations as they may deem appropriate. Such arbitration shall be conducted in the English language (or if the parties agree, both English and Chinese). Unless the parties otherwise agree, all documents shall be translated into English at the expense of the party presenting the documents. Neither party shall be required to give general discovery of documents but may be required to produce specific, identified documents that are relevant to the dispute.

(c) The arbitral tribunal shall be composed of three impartial and independent arbitrators who are not citizens or residents of the PRC or the United States, one selected by the claimant(s) and one selected by the respondent(s) and the third selected by the other two arbitrators, or, if the other two arbitrators are unable to agree, by HKIAC, with such third arbitrator being the presiding arbitrator. The arbitral tribunal may, in addition to any other powers conferred by the UNCITRAL Rules: (i) enjoin a party from performing any act prohibited, or compel a party to perform any act required, by the terms of this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement; (ii) where, and only where, a violation of this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement has been found, shorten or lengthen any time period established by this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement; and (iii) order such other legal or equitable relief as the arbitral tribunal deems appropriate. Except with respect to a breach of the Entrustment Agreements, the arbitral tribunal shall not be empowered to award, and the Parties to this Agreement hereby waive the right to claim, consequential or punitive damages. The arbitrators shall render findings of fact and conclusions of law and a written award setting forth the basis and reasons for any decision rendered.

(d) The decision of the arbitral tribunal shall be final and binding on the parties to such arbitration, their Affiliates and JVCO and its Subsidiaries (including the Contributed Companies) and may not be appealed. Judgment upon any award of the arbitral tribunal may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. In connection with any arbitration hereunder or the enforcement of any award rendered pursuant thereto, the Parties hereby waive all defenses based on the general invalidity or unenforceability of this Agreement or this Article VIII or any other Transaction Agreement.

(e) The arbitration proceeding shall be confidential and the arbitral tribunal may issue appropriate protective orders to safeguard the Parties’ confidential information. Except as required by law, no Party shall make (or instruct any arbitrator to make) any public announcement with respect to the proceedings or decision of the arbitral tribunal without the prior written consent of the other Parties. The existence of any dispute submitted to arbitration, any evidence submitted, and the award of the arbitral tribunal, shall be kept in confidence by the Parties and the arbitrators, except as required in connection with the enforcement of such award or as otherwise required by applicable law.

Section 8.04 Third Party Action. If a third party initiates a claim of any nature in any court against any of the Parties arising out of or relating to any provision of this Agreement, the Parties agree that, as to such claim, the Party so named in such court proceeding may implead or otherwise join any of the remaining Parties in that proceeding, and that the existence of Sections 8.02 and 8.03 hereof (and the remedies prescribed thereunder) shall not act as a defense or bar to such impleader or joinder.

Section 8.05 Remedies. Except as set forth in this Article VIII, all rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

Section 8.06 No Consequential or Punitive Damages. Except with respect to a breach of the Entrustment Agreements, no Party shall seek or be entitled to receive any consequential damages, including but not limited to loss of revenue or income, cost of capital, or loss of business reputation or opportunity, relating to any misrepresentation or breach of any warranty, covenant or contractual obligation set forth in this Agreement; nor shall any Party seek or be entitled to receive punitive damages as to any matter under, relating to or arising out of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

ARTICLE IX

Section 9.01 Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties of the Parties contained herein shall survive the JV Closing Date for a period of twenty-four (24) months following the JV Closing Date; provided, however, that (i) the representations and warranties made by Chindex in Sections 3.01, 3.02, 3.06 and 3.10(b), and the representations and warranties made by Fosun in Sections 4.01 and 4.02 shall survive indefinitely and (ii) the representations and warranties made by the Fosun Parties in Section 4.09 shall survive, with respect to each representation contained in the Chuangxin Share Transfer Agreement, for such period of time as such representation contained in the Chuangxin Share Transfer Agreement survives.

Section 9.03 Severability.

Upon a determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an enforceable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Section 9.04 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the exhibits and schedules hereto) and the other Transaction Agreements (including the Chuangxin Share Transfer Agreement) constitute the entire agreement of the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, between Fosun and Chindex and their Affiliates with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, except that Section 5.03 of the Stock Purchase Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and is not superseded hereby.

This Agreement may not be assigned without the express written consent of the other Parties (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) and compliance with the following two sentences (as applicable); and any such assignment or attempted assignment without such consent or compliance shall be void. In the event of any permitted assignment by a Fosun Party, the assignee shall agree as a condition to the effectiveness of such assignment in a written agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Chindex (an executed copy of which shall be delivered to the Chindex Parties) to assume and agree to be bound by the obligations of such Fosun Party set forth in this Agreement. In the event of any permitted assignment by a Chindex Party, the assignee shall agree as a condition to the effectiveness of such assignment in a written agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Fosun (an executed copy of which shall be delivered to the Fosun Parties) to assume and agree to be bound by the obligations of such Chindex Party set forth in this Agreement.

Section 9.07 Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended or modified except by an instrument in writing signed by, or on behalf of, each of the Parties.

Section 9.08 Waiver. Any Party may (for itself but not for or on behalf of any other Party, except that (A) Chindex may act on behalf of any other Chindex Party under this Section 9.08 and (B) Fosun may act on behalf of Warrantor and any other Fosun Party under this Section 9.08) (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of any other Party, (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of any other Party contained herein or in any document delivered by any other Party pursuant hereto, or (iii) waive compliance with any of the agreements of any other Party or conditions to such Party’s obligations contained herein. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the Party that is giving the waiver. Any waiver of any term or condition shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or a subsequent waiver of the same term or condition, or a waiver of any other term or condition of this

Agreement. The failure of any Party hereto to assert any of its rights hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any of such rights.

Section 9.09 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever, under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 9.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile transmission or portable document format (“.pdf”)) in one or more counterparts, and by the different Parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 9.13 Absence of Presumption. With regard to each and every term and condition of this Agreement and any and all agreements and instruments subject to the terms hereof, the Parties hereto understand and agree that the same have or has been mutually negotiated, prepared and drafted, and if at any time the Parties hereto (or any court or arbitral tribunal) desire or are required to interpret or construe any such term or condition or any agreement or instrument subject hereto, no consideration will be given to the issue of which Party hereto actually prepared, drafted or requested any term or condition of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument subject hereto.
