If and whenever the Company shall issue (other than in lieu of a cash dividend) any Shares credited as fully paid by way of capitalisation of profits or reserves (including any share premium account or capital redemption reserve fund), the Conversion Price in force immediately prior to such issue shall be adjusted by multiplying it by the aggregate nominal amount of the issued Shares immediately before such issue and dividing the result by the sum of such aggregate nominal amount and the aggregate nominal amount of the Shares issued in such capitalisation. Each such adjustment shall be effective (if appropriate retroactively) from the commencement of the day next following the record date for such issue.
|
|
|
(iii)
|
If and whenever the Company shall make any Capital Distribution (as defined in Sub-clause (b)) to holders (in their capacity as such) of Shares (whether on a reduction of capital or otherwise) or shall grant to such holders rights to acquire for cash assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, the Conversion Price in force immediately prior to such distribution or grant shall be reduced by multiplying it by the following fraction:
|
11
|
A – B
|
|
A
|
where:
|
|
A =
|
the market price (as defined in Sub-clause (b)) on the date on which the Capital Distribution or, as the case may be, the grant is publicly announced or (failing any such announcement) the date next preceding the date of the Capital Distribution or, as the case may be, of the grant; and
|
|
|
B =
|
the fair market value on the day of such announcement or (as the case may require) the next preceding day, as determined in good faith by an approved merchant bank (as defined in Sub-clause (b)) or the auditors of the Company for the time being, of the portion of the Capital Distribution or of such rights which is attributable to one Share,
|
Provided that:
|
|
(aa)
|
if in the opinion of the relevant approved merchant bank or the auditors of the Company for the time being, the use of the fair market value as aforesaid produces a result which is significantly inequitable, it may instead determine (and in such event the above formula shall be construed as if B meant) the amount of the said market price which should properly be attributed to the value of the Capital Distribution or rights; and
|
|
|
(bb)
|
the provisions of this sub-paragraph (iii) shall not apply in relation to the issue of Shares paid out of profits or reserves and issued in lieu of a cash dividend.
|
|
|
Each such adjustment shall be effective (if appropriate retroactively) from the commencement of the day next following the record date for the Capital Distribution or the grant.
|

|
|
(iv)
|
If and whenever the Company shall offer to holders of Shares new Shares for subscription by way of rights, or shall grant to holders of Shares any options or warrants to subscribe for new Shares, at a price which is less than 95 per cent. of the market price at the date of the announcement (as defined in Sub-clause (b)) of the terms of the offer or grant, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the Conversion Price in force immediately before the date of the announcement of such offer or grant by a fraction of which the numerator is the number of Shares in issue immediately before the date of such announcement plus the number of Shares which the aggregate of the amount (if any) payable for the rights, options or warrants and of the amount payable for the total number of new Shares comprised therein would purchase at such market price and the denominator is the number of Shares in issue immediately before the date of such announcement plus the aggregate number of Shares offered for subscription or comprised in the options or warrants (such adjustment to become effective (if appropriate retroactively) from the commencement of the day next following the record date for the offer or grant).
|
|
|
(v)
|
(aa)
|
If and whenever the Company shall issue wholly for cash any securities which by their terms are convertible into or exchangeable for or carry rights of subscription for new Shares, and the total Effective Consideration per Share (as defined below) initially receivable for such securities is less than 95 per cent. of the market price at the date of the announcement of the terms of issue of such securities, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the Conversion Price in force immediately prior to the issue by a fraction of which the numerator is the number of Shares in issue immediately before the date of the issue plus the number of Shares which the total Effective Consideration receivable for the securities issued would purchase at such market price and the denominator is the number of Shares in issue immediately before the date of the issue plus the number of Shares to be issued upon conversion or exchange of, or the exercise of the subscription rights conferred by, such securities at the initial conversion or exchange rate or subscription price. Such adjustment shall become effective (if appropriate retrospectively) from the close of business in Hong Kong on the Business Day next preceding whichever is the earlier of the date on which the issue is announced and the date on which the Company determines the conversion or exchange rate or subscription price.
|
|
|
(bb)
|
If and whenever the rights of conversion or exchange or subscription attached to any such securities as are mentioned in section (aa) of this sub-paragraph (v) are modified so that the total Effective Consideration per Share initially receivable for such securities shall be less than 95 per cent. of the market price at the date of announcement of the proposal to modify such rights of conversion or exchange or subscription, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the Conversion Price in force immediately prior to such modification by a fraction of which the numerator is the number of Shares in issue immediately before the date of such modification plus the number of Shares which the total Effective Consideration receivable for the securities issued at the modified conversion or exchange price would purchase at such market price and of which the denominator is the number of Shares in issue immediately before such date of modification plus the number of Shares to be issued upon conversion or exchange of or the exercise of the subscription rights conferred by such securities at the modified conversion or exchange rate or subscription price. Such adjustment shall become effective as at the date upon which such modification shall take effect.
|
13
For the purposes of this sub-paragraph (v), the “total Effective Consideration” receivable for the securities issued shall be deemed to be the consideration receivable by the Company for any such securities plus the additional minimum consideration (if any) to be received by the Company upon (and assuming) the conversion or exchange thereof or the exercise of such subscription rights, and the Effective Consideration per Share initially receivable for such securities shall be such aggregate consideration divided by the number of Shares to be issued upon (and assuming) such conversion or exchange at the initial conversion or exchange rate or the exercise of such subscription rights at the initial subscription price, in each case without any deduction for any commissions, discounts or expenses paid, allowed or incurred in connection with the issue.
|
|
(vi)
|
If and whenever the Company shall issue wholly for cash any Shares at a price per Share which is less than 95 per cent. of the market price at the date of the announcement of the terms of such issue, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the Conversion Price in force immediately before the date of such announcement by a fraction of which the numerator is the number of Shares in issue immediately before the date of such announcement plus the number of Shares which the aggregate amount payable for the issue would purchase at such market price and the denominator is the number of Shares in issue immediately before the date of such announcement plus the number of Shares so issued. Such adjustment shall become effective on the date of the issue.

|
|
(vii)
|
If and whenever the Company shall issue Shares for the acquisition of asset at a total Effective Consideration per Share (as defined below) which is less than 95 per cent. of the market price at the date of the announcement of the terms of such issue, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted by multiplying it by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the total Effective Consideration per Share and the denominator shall be such market price. Each such adjustment shall be effective (if appropriate retroactively) from the close of business in New York City, U.S. on the Business Day next preceding the date on which the Company determines the issue price for such Shares. For the purpose of this sub-paragraph (vii) “total Effective Consideration” shall be the aggregate consideration credited as being paid for such Shares by the Company on acquisition of the relevant asset without any deduction of any commissions, discounts or expenses paid, allowed or incurred in connection with the issue thereof, and the “total Effective Consideration per Share” shall be the total Effective Consideration divided by the number of Shares issued as aforesaid.

(A)
|
Conditions
|
|
|
Immediately after the issue of the Bonds, the Bondholder shall, subject to compliance with the procedures set out in the Conditions, have the right at any time during the Conversion Period to convert the whole or part of the outstanding principal amount of the Bonds registered in its name into Shares provided further that any conversion shall be made in amounts of not less than a whole multiple of US$50,000 on each conversion save that if at any time the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Bonds is less than US$50,000, the whole (but not part only) of the outstanding principal amount of the Bonds may be converted.

|
The Bonds shall be mandatorily converted upon the occurrence of a Liquidity Event, in accordance with Condition 6(D)(ii) below.
|
|
(B)
|
Number of Conversion Shares
|
|
|
The number of Conversion Shares to be issued on each conversion will be determined by dividing the principal amount specified in the Conversion Notice by the Conversion Price applicable on the Conversion Date. Fractions of Shares will not be issued on conversion and the amount representing such fraction will be retained by the Company and no payment will be made to the Bondholder in respect of such fraction, provided always that for the purpose of determining whether any (and if so what) fraction of a share arises, if the Conversion Right represented by a Certificate and any one or more other Certificates are exercised on the same Conversion Date by the Bondholder, then the Conversion Rights represented by the Bonds shall be aggregated.
|
|
(C)
|
Conversion Price
|
|
|
Subject to adjustments as hereafter described in this Condition 6(C), the Conversion Price for the Bonds shall be US$5.00 per Conversion Share.

|
|
|
(v)
|
an issue wholly for cash being made by the Company of securities convertible into or exchangeable for or carrying rights of subscription for new Shares, if in any case the total Effective Consideration per Share (as defined in the Bond Instrument) initially receivable for such securities is less than 95 per cent. of the market price (calculation as provided in the Bond Instrument), or the terms of any such rights of conversion or exchange or subscription attached to any such securities being modified so that the said total Effective Consideration per Share initially receivable for such securities is less than 95 per cent. of the market price;

|

|
|
|
(viii)
|
If and whenever (a) the Company shall issue for cash or for any other consideration any Shares or any securities which by their terms are convertible into or exchangeable for or carry rights of subscription for new Shares; or (b) the Company or any subsidiary of the Company shall issue any securities which by their terms are convertible into or exchangeable for or carry rights of subscription for new Shares, and in each case the total Effective Consideration per Share receivable for such Shares or other securities is less than the Conversion Price which is in effect at the date of the announcement of the terms of issue of such Shares or other securities, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted by reducing it to the total Effective Consideration per Share initially receivable for such Shares or other securities. Such adjustment shall become effective on the date of the issue of such Shares or other securities.
|
6
|
|
(b)
|
Except as mentioned in the following paragraphs of this Condition 6(C), no such adjustment as referred to in paragraphs (a)(ii) to (a)(viii) (inclusive) of this Condition 6(C) shall be made in respect of:

|
|
|
(vi)
|
an issue of Shares pursuant to and for the purposes of any stock option plan adopted by the Company for the benefit of its existing and future key employees, which is permitted by the terms of the Investor Rights Deed.
|
7
|
|
(c)
|
Notwithstanding the provisions referred to in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Condition 6(C), in any circumstances where the directors of the Company or the Bondholder shall consider that an adjustment to the Conversion Price provided for under the said provisions should not be made or should be calculated on a different basis or that an adjustment to the Conversion Price should be made notwithstanding that no such adjustment is required under the said provisions or that an adjustment should take effect on a different date or with a different time from that provided for under the said provisions, the Company or the Bondholder may appoint an approved merchant bank or the auditors of the Company for the time being to consider whether for any reason whatever the adjustment to be made (or the absence of adjustment) would not fairly and appropriately reflect the relative interests of the persons affected thereby and, if such approved merchant bank or auditors of the Company for the time being shall consider this to be the case, the adjustment shall be modified or nullified or an adjustment made instead of no adjustment in such manner (including, without limitation, making an adjustment calculated on a different basis and/or the adjustment shall take effect from such other date and/or time) as shall be certified by such approved merchant bank or auditors of the Company for the time being to be in its opinion appropriate.
|
|
|
(d)
|
If the Company or any subsidiary of the Company shall in any way modify the rights attached to any share or loan capital so as wholly or partly to convert or make convertible such share or loan capital into, or attach thereto any rights to acquire, Shares, the Company shall appoint an approved merchant bank or the auditors of the Company for the time being to consider whether any adjustment to the Conversion Price is appropriate (and if such approved merchant bank or auditors of the Company for the time being (as the case may be) shall certify that any such adjustment is appropriate the Conversion Price shall be adjusted accordingly).
|
|
|
(e)
|
Any adjustment to the Conversion Price shall be made to the nearest one U.S. cent so that any amount under half a U.S. cent shall be rounded down and any amount of half a cent or more shall be rounded up. No adjustment shall be made to the Conversion Price in any case in which the amount by which the same would be reduced would be less than the nominal value of a Share and any adjustment which would otherwise then be required shall not be carried forward.
|
|
|
(f)
|
Every adjustment to the Conversion Price will be certified by the auditors of the Company for the time being or an approved merchant bank and notice of each adjustment (giving the relevant particulars) will be given to the Bondholder. Any such certificate(s) of the auditors of the Company for the time being or (as the case may be) of the relevant approved merchant bank will be available for inspection at the Specified Office.
|
|
|
(g)
|
If application of any of the provisions referred to in this Condition 6(C) would but for this paragraph (g) result in the Conversion Price being reduced so that on conversion Shares shall fall to be issued at a discount to their nominal value, then the Conversion Price shall be adjusted to an amount equal to the nominal value of one Share.

(iii)
|

|
7.
|
