31、任。如果一个阿里巴巴管理层的董事提名没有被我们的股东选上或者因为任何原因离开了董事会，管理层将有权任命有权指定一个不同的人来担任临时董事，直到我们下次股东大会的召开。我们预计，我们的原始董事会在完成本次招股发行后，将由九名成员组成，并且阿里巴巴管理层将会指派四名董事作为管理层的被提名者。当任何时候因为任何原因出现我们董事会组成少于过半数的管理层提名或指派的董事 包括因为阿里巴巴管理层之前没有行使提名或任命过半数董事的权利 阿里巴巴管理层有权提名或者任命一部人额外的董事（单独处理权，不需要征得股东同意），如果这在确保阿里巴巴管理层对董事的提名或者任命形成一个简单多数的董事会是必要的。例如，如果阿里巴巴的管理层将任命九分之四最初的董事作为管理层的被提名者，阿里巴巴将根据此次股份发行的结束，有权提名或者任命两个额外的董事进入董事会，这将会使董事成员数量达到 11 个。我们希望达成一个能够对股份的发行完毕产生影响的选举协议，并依照软银和雅虎都将同意在每次股东大会的投票中支持阿里巴巴管理层的被提名董事，指导软银的持股比例下降到低于我们已发行普通股的 15%。因此，只要软银和雅虎仍然是大股东，我们就能估计到阿里巴巴管理层的被提名者将会获得大多数投票在任何选举或者被选举董事的大会上。
