Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of authority.

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Supplemental Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with,

All notices delivered hereunder shall be in English and shall be deemed effective when actually received.

Section 1.6. Notice to Holders; Waiver.

Where this Supplemental Indenture provides for notice of any event to Holders by the Company or the Trustee, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date (if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Any notice mailed to a Holder in the manner herein prescribed shall be conclusively deemed to have been received by such Holder, whether or not such Holder actually receives such notice. Where this Supplemental Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

In case, by reason of the suspension of or irregularities in regular mail service or by reason of any other cause, it shall be impracticable to mail notice of any event to Holders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Supplement Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice for every purpose hereunder.

In addition, the Company shall publish any notices to Holders as necessary, including in English in the Financial Times, and The Wall Street Journal and, so long as the Convertible Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the rules of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange so require, publishing notices to Holders in a leading newspaper having general circulation in Luxembourg, which is expected to be the Luxemburger Wort; provided that for so long as any Convertible Notes are represented by Global Notes notices may be given by delivery of the relevant notice to the Depository, including their Euroclear System and Clearstream Banking participants, for communication by them to their respective participants in substitution for publication in any such newspaper.

Interest on any Convertible Note which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Convertible Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest.

Any interest on any Convertible Note which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such overdue interest and (to the extent lawful) interest on such overdue interest at the rate borne by the Convertible Notes (such overdue interest and interest thereon herein collectively called “Defaulted Interest”) may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (1) or (2) below:

Prior to any redemption pursuant to Section 3.1.2. the Company agrees to provide the Trustee with an Opinion of Counsel that the conditions precedent to such redemption have occurred. Prior to any redemption pursuant to Section 3.1.1, the Company agrees to provide the Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the relevant closing prices or the amount of Convertible Notes Outstanding and the amount originally issued and its conclusion that the conditions precedent to such redemption have occurred.

3.1.4. Notice of Redemption.

Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided below not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Convertible Notes to be redeemed.

	(3)		that on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price (and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Redemption Date) payable as provided in Section 3.1.6. will become due and payable upon each such Convertible Note to be redeemed, and that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date,

	(5)		the place or places where such Convertible Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price and accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

Notice of redemption of Convertible Notes to be redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company, in which case the Trustee shall provide the Company with a notice stating the date on which such notice of redemption was mailed to Holders and/or proof that such notice of redemption was published.

3.1.5. Deposit of Redemption Price.

Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Convertible Notes so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified (together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Redemption Date), and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued and unpaid interest) such Convertible Notes shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Convertible Note for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Convertible Note shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Convertible Notes, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 6.3.

If any Convertible Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by the Convertible Notes.

3.1.7. Selection of Convertible Notes to be Redeemed.

Section 3.2 of the Indenture hereby is amended and restated with respect to the Convertible Notes as follows:

If less than all the Convertible Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Convertible Notes to be redeemed by a method that complies with the requirements of the principal securities exchange, if any, on which the Convertible Notes are listed, or, if the Convertible Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee considers fair and appropriate. The Trustee shall make the selection not more than 60 days and not less than 30 days before the redemption date from Convertible Notes Outstanding not previously called for redemption. The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of Convertible Notes that have denominations larger than $1,000. Convertible Notes and portions of them it selects shall be in principal amounts of $1,000 or integral multiples of $1,000. Provisions of this Supplemental Indenture that apply to Convertible Notes called for redemption also apply to Convertible Notes that are called for partial redemption. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of the Convertible Notes or portions of Convertible Notes to be called for redemption.

If any Convertible Note selected for partial redemption is converted by the Holder in part after such selection, the partially converted portion of such Convertible Note shall be deemed (so far as may be) to have been redeemed for such purpose. Upon any redemption of less than all the Convertible Notes, the Company and the Trustee may treat as Outstanding any Convertible Notes surrendered for conversion during the period 15 days immediately preceding the mailing of a notice of redemption and need not treat as Outstanding any new Convertible Note authenticated and delivered during such period in exchange for the unconverted portion of any Convertible Note converted in part during such period.

If less than the entire principal amount of such Convertible Note is to be repaid, the principal amount of such Convertible Note to be repaid, in increments of US$1,000, and the denomination or denominations of the Convertible Note or Convertible Notes to be issued to the Holder for the portion of the principal amount of such Convertible Note surrendered that is not to be repaid, must be specified. The principal amount of any Convertible Note may not be repaid in part if, following such repayment, the unpaid principal amount of such Convertible Note would be less than US$1,000. The exercise of the repayment option by the Holder of any Convertible Note shall be irrevocable unless waived by the Company.

Section 12.4. When Convertible Notes Presented for Repayment Become Due and Payable.

Subject to Section 2.2.3. in the case of Global Notes, upon surrender of any Convertible Note which is to be repaid in part only, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Convertible Note, without service charge and at the expense of the Company, a new Convertible Note or Convertible Notes of the same series, of any authorized denomination specified by the Holder, in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the portion of the principal of such Convertible Note so surrendered which is not to be repaid.

	(4)		the place or places where such Convertible Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Repayment Price and accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

Notice of any Repayment Event shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company, in which case the Trustee shall provide the Company with a notice stating the date on which such notice was mailed to Holders and/or proof that such notice was published, in each case in accordance with Section 1.5.

ARTICLE FOUR

CONVERSION PROVISIONS

Section 4.1. Conversion.

The Convertible Notes shall contain the following provisions regarding conversion:

ARTICLE THIRTEEN

CONVERSION OF SECURITIES

Section 13.1. Conversion Right.

Subject to the further provisions of this Article Thirteen, a Holder of a Convertible Note may convert such Convertible Note (or a portion thereof equal to US$1,000 or any integral multiple thereof) into Ordinary Shares of the Company at any time after May 2, 2001 and before the close of business on the third Business Day preceding Maturity or the Redemption Date fixed for any early redemption at the Conversion Price then in effect; provided, however, that, if such Convertible Note is called for redemption pursuant to Section 3.1 of this Supplemental Indenture, such conversion right shall terminate at the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date for such Convertible Note (unless the Company shall default in making the redemption payment when due, in which case the conversion right shall terminate at the close of business on the date such default is cured and such Convertible Note is redeemed) (such period during which the Convertible Notes are convertible, the “Conversion Period”). The number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of a Convertible Note (or a portion thereof equal to US$1,000 or any integral multiple thereof) shall be determined by dividing the aggregate principal amount (translated into Singapore dollars at the Fixed Exchange Rate) of the Convertible Note or portion thereof surrendered for conversion by the Conversion Price per Ordinary Share in effect on the Conversion Date. The Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and will rank equally with all other Ordinary Shares.

A Holder may elect to receive Ordinary Shares upon conversion in the form of ADSs. In such event, the Company shall, on behalf of such Holder, as soon as practicable, deliver to and deposit with the Depository or its custodian, in accordance with the applicable terms and conditions of the ADS Deposit Agreement,

such number of Ordinary Shares such Holder would have received upon conversion had such Holder not elected to receive such Ordinary Shares in the form of ADSs. Such Ordinary Shares will be registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee. Subject to compliance with the terms of the ADS Deposit Agreement, including payment of the fees and expenses of the ADS depository by such Holder, the ADS depository will issue such number of ADSs representing the deposited Ordinary Shares to such Holder based on the applicable share-to-ADS ratio then in effect.

A Convertible Note may not be converted if a Holder has delivered a “Notice to Elect Repayment” form in respect of such Convertible Note pursuant to Article Twelve exercising the option of such Holder to require repayment by the Company for such Convertible Note.

Upon conversion, with effect from the Registration Date (as defined in Section 13.2), the person designated in the conversion notice will be registered as the holder of record of the applicable number of Ordinary Shares, but beginning on the Conversion Date (as defined in Section 13.2) such converting Holder shall cease to have any right as a Holder with respect to the Convertible Notes surrendered for conversion.

Section 13.2. Conversion Procedure.

To convert a Convertible Note, a Holder must (a) complete and manually sign a conversion notice in substantially the form included in the form of Convertible Notes set forth in Exhibit A hereto and deliver such notice to the Conversion Agent at its own expense, (b) surrender the Convertible Note to the Conversion Agent duly endorsed or assigned to the Company or in blank, (c) furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents (if any) required by the Registrar or the Conversion Agent, and (d) pay any required transfer or similar tax and make any other required payment. The date on which the Holder satisfies all of those requirements is the “Conversion Date.”

Immediately following deposit of a Convertible Note and conversion notice and payment by the converting Holder of any required amount in accordance with Section 13.2, the Conversion Agent shall (i) verify that the conversion notice has been duly completed in accordance with its terms and purports to have been signed by or on behalf of the Holder of such Convertible Note named therein and (ii) set out in the conversion notice (A) the deposit date and the Conversion Date in respect of the deposited Convertible Note, (B) the Conversion Price on Conversion Date and (C) the number of Ordinary Shares or ADSs issuable upon conversion of such deposited Convertible Note. The Conversion Agent shall reject such deposited Convertible Note if the conversion notice in respect of which has not been duly completed in accordance with its terms or does not purport to have been signed by or on behalf of the Holder of such Convertible Note named therein. The Conversion Agent shall send by facsimile to the Company a copy of the conversion notice as soon as practicable, but in any event no later than two Business Days, following such verification, and shall send by post, to the Company the original conversion notice as soon as practicable following any such request by the Company in writing. On deposit of a Convertible Note and a conversion notice (and payment by a converting Holder of any required amount) in accordance with Section 13.3, the Convertible Note and the Conversion Notice so deposited and any

relevant amounts shall be deemed to be held by the Conversion Agent as the agent of the Company.

No Holder will be entitled to receive physical share certificates in respect of the Ordinary Shares arising from the conversion of the Convertible Notes. Delivery of the Ordinary Shares shall be made by crediting such Ordinary Shares to a Holder’s securities account or the securities account of a Holder’s depository agent with CDP. The Company shall allot and issue the Ordinary Shares arising from the conversion of the Convertible Notes in accordance with instructions as set out in the conversion notice and shall deliver to CDP the share certificate(s) relating to such Ordinary Shares in the name of CDP for the credit of the Holder’s securities account or the securities account of Holder’s depository agent securities account as specified in the Conversion Notice as soon as practicable, and in any event not later than 14 days, after the Conversion Date (or such longer period as may be required to comply with any applicable fiscal or other laws or regulations). The Company will register the Person or Persons designated for the purpose in the Conversion Notice as holder(s) of the relevant number of Ordinary Shares in its share register. The Person or Persons specified for that purpose will become the holder of record of the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion with effect from the date he is or they are registered as such in the Company’s share register (the “Registration Date”).

The Ordinary Shares issued upon conversion of the Convertible Notes will in all respects be fully paid and nonassessable and rank equally with all the Ordinary Shares in issue on the relevant Registration Date. A holder of Ordinary Shares issued on conversion of Convertible Notes shall not be entitled to any rights of a shareholder the record date for which precedes the relevant Registration Date.

If the record date for the payment of any dividend or other distribution in respect of the Ordinary Shares is on or after the Conversion Date in respect of any Convertible Notes converted, but before the Registration Date, the Company shall pay to the converting Holder an amount equal to any such dividend or other distribution to which he would have been entitled had he on that record date been such a shareholder of record of such number of Ordinary Shares issued upon conversion (disregarding any retroactive adjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to the fourth paragraph of Section 13.5), and will make such payment at the same time as it makes payment of the dividend or other distribution, or as soon as practicable thereafter, but, in any event, not later than seven days thereafter.

No payment or adjustment will be made for accrued and unpaid interest on dividends on the Ordinary Shares on a Convertible Note delivered for conversion. The delivery to a Holder of the fixed number of Ordinary Shares or ADSs into which the Convertible Note is convertible will be deemed to satisfy the Company’s obligation to pay the principal amount and any accrued and unpaid premium and interest attributable to the period from the Interest Payment Date immediately preceding the Conversion Date to the Conversion Date.

If any Holder surrenders a Convertible Note for conversion after the close of business on the Regular Record Date relating to the Interest Payment Date but before the opening of business on the related Interest

Payment Date, then, notwithstanding such conversion, the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Holder of such Convertible Note on such Regular Record Date. In such event, unless such Convertible Note has been called for redemption on a Redemption Date prior to such Interest Payment Date, such Convertible Note, when surrendered for conversion, must be accompanied by delivery of a check or draft payable to a Person designated by the Company in an amount equal to the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date on the portion so converted. If such payment does not accompany such Convertible Note, the Convertible Note shall not be converted. If the Company defaults in the payment of interest payable on the Interest Payment Date, such funds shall be repaid to the Holder.

Fractions of Ordinary Shares will not be issued on conversion and will not be deposited with the Depository, and no cash adjustments will be made in respect of any such fraction of Ordinary Shares. Under the ADS Deposit Agreement, the Depository will not issue fractions of ADSs. To the extent the Depository does not accept a certain number of Ordinary Shares for deposit pursuant to the ADS Deposit Agreement, the Conversion Agent will sell the Ordinary Shares representing such fractional ADSs and will distribute the net proceeds of the sale to the Holder.

If a Holder converts more than one Convertible Note at the same time, the number of Ordinary Shares or ADSs issuable upon the conversion shall be based on the aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes converted. Upon surrender of a Convertible Note that is converted in part, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder, a new Convertible Note equal in principal amount to the unconverted portion of the Convertible Note surrendered.

A conversion notice once given will be irrevocable and may not be withdrawn without the prior written consent of the Company. The Company or the Conversion Agent on its behalf may reject any incomplete or incorrect conversion notice. All costs and expenses incurred by an incomplete or incorrect conversion notice will be for the account of the relevant Holder.

Section 13.3. Taxes and Expenses on Conversion.

As conditions precedent to conversion, the Holder must pay to the Conversion Agent any taxes and capital, stamp, issue and registration duties arising on conversion, other than any taxes or capital or stamp duties payable in Singapore in respect of the allotment, issuance of the Ordinary Shares and listing of the Ordinary Shares upon conversion. In addition, the Holder will be required to pay any tax or duty relating to any disposal or any deemed disposal relating to conversion and transfer involved in the issue or delivery of the Ordinary Shares upon conversion. The Company will pay all other expenses arising on the issue, allotment and delivery of the Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion. If a Holder elects to receive Ordinary Shares upon conversion in the form of ADSs, the Holder shall pay all amounts pursuant to this Section 13.3 in addition to the fees and expenses of the Depository pursuant to the ADS Deposit Agreement.

Section 13.4. Adjustment of Conversion Price.

The Conversion Price per Ordinary Share shall be adjusted from time to time by the Company as follows:

In each case, the adjusted Conversion Price is determined by multiplying the Conversion Price before adjustment, denoted as “P”, by an applicable adjustment factor. The formulae for determining the adjustment factors are set forth in the following subsections. In each case, the Conversion Price will be adjusted with effect from the end of business in Singapore on the applicable Adjustment Effective Date.

(a) If the Company:

	(i)		pays a dividend or makes a distribution on any class of its Capital Stock in the form of Ordinary Shares other than a cash dividend or distribution that permits the recipient to elect to receive Ordinary Shares instead of cash (all reference to “dividend” in this Section 13.4 (a)(i) being a dividend other than an Extraordinary Dividend defined below);

	(ii)		splits or reclassifies the outstanding Ordinary Shares into a greater number of Ordinary Shares; or

	(iii)		consolidates or reclassifies the outstanding Ordinary Shares into a lesser number of Ordinary Shares,

the Conversion Price will be adjusted as follows:

where:

“X” means the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of the relevant event giving rise to the adjustment; and

“Y” means the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after effectiveness of the relevant event giving rise to the adjustment.

The Adjustment Effective Date, in the case of (a)(i) above, shall be the record date set for the relevant dividend or distribution giving rise to the adjustment. The Adjustment Effective Date, in the case of (a)(ii) and (a)(iii) above, shall be the date on which the relevant split, consolidation or reclassification giving rise to the adjustment becomes effective.

(b) If (i) the Company issues or distributes Ordinary Shares, or any of its Subsidiaries issues or distributes any securities or rights which are convertible into or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares, or issues or distributes any warrants or rights to purchase or subscribe for Ordinary Shares, in each case, to all or substantially all holders of

Ordinary Shares; and (ii) the applicable issuance, distribution, conversion, exchange, purchase or subscription price per Ordinary Share, after taking into account any per share consideration received by the Company in respect of such issuance or distribution, is below 95% of the Average Market Price as of the date of announcement of details concerning such applicable issuance, distribution, conversion, exchange, purchase or subscription price; provided, however, that this Section 13.4(b) shall not apply to issuances or distributions made pursuant to Section 13.4(a).

the Conversion Price will be adjusted as follows:

where:

“S” means the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding at the close of business on the date of announcement of details concerning such applicable issuance, distribution, conversion, exchange, purchase or subscription price;

“f” means the number of additional Ordinary Shares which the aggregate applicable issuance, distribution, conversion, exchange, purchase or subscription price, reduced by any aggregate consideration received by the Company in respect of such issuance or distribution, would purchase at the Average Market Price as of such date of announcement; and

“a” means the number of additional Ordinary Shares which are issued or distributed or are initially issuable or distributable under such issuance or distribution or under the terms of the securities or rights issued or distributed in such issuance or distribution.

The Adjustment Effective Date for an adjustment pursuant to this subsection (b) shall be the record date the Company sets for such issuance or distribution.

In case of any adjustment as a result of issuance of Ordinary Shares by way of a rights offering to all or substantially all holders of Ordinary Shares, the Company may elect to defer the effectiveness of that adjustment until the subscription period applicable to such rights offering has expired. In that case, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted using elements “f” and “a” in the above formula that are calculated on the basis of the actual number of the Ordinary Shares issued and aggregate purchase price actually paid in the rights offering. The adjustment shall take effect retroactively from the record date the Company sets for such rights offering.

(c) If the Company issues or distributes, for less than 95% of their fair market value, to all or substantially all holders of Ordinary Shares, any

	(i)		securities other than as described in (a) or (b) above or (e) below,

	(ii)		assets, other than cash dividends addressed in (d) below or other cash dividends in kind, in each case declared and paid in the ordinary course (as described below), but, for the avoidance of doubt, including any dividend or portion of such dividend which constitutes a redemption of share capital as part of a reduction in par value of the Ordinary Shares, or

	(iii)		rights to acquire those securities or assets described in subsection (i) and (ii) above,

the Conversion Price will be adjusted as follows:

where:

“M” means the Average Market Price per Ordinary Share as of the date of announcement of terms of such issuance or distribution; and

“d” means the fair market value of the portion of the securities, assets or rights to acquire such securities, assets or rights per Ordinary Share, less any per share consideration received by the Company in respect of such portion. The fair market value will be as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company, which determination will be conclusive and calculated on the last Trading Day preceding such date of announcement.

For purposes of this paragraph (c), dividends “in the ordinary course” shall mean, with respect to any fiscal year, the declaration and payment by the Company of no more than (x) an interim dividend with respect to its interim financial results for such fiscal year and (y) a final dividend with respect to its full year financial results for such fiscal year.

The Adjustment Effective Date, in the case of this subsection (c), shall be the record date set for the relevant dividend or distribution giving rise to the adjustment.

(d) If the Company issues or distributes an Extraordinary Dividend in the form of cash (as described below), the Conversion Price will be adjusted as follows:

where:

“M” has the same meaning as in subsection (c) above; and

“e” means the amount of Extraordinary Dividend payable per Ordinary Share.

For purposes of this subsection (d), with respect of a dividend on a certain date, an Extraordinary Dividend occurs if the Total Current Dividend as of such date equals or exceeds on a per share basis:

(i) if the Company has never declared or paid any cash dividend: 2% of the One-Year Average Closing Price of the Ordinary Shares; or

(ii) if the Company has declared and paid at least one cash dividend: the lower of (A) twice the Reference Dividend and (B) the Reference Dividend plus 1% of the One-Year Average Closing Price of the Ordinary Shares.

The Extraordinary Dividend shall be, in the case of (i) above, the amount by which the Total Current Dividend exceeds 2% of the One-Year Average Closing Price, and in the case of (ii) above, the amount by which the Total Current Dividend exceeds the Reference Dividend.

The Adjustment Effective Date, in the case of this subsection (d), shall be the record date set for the relevant dividend or distribution giving rise to the adjustment.

(e) If the Company pays a dividend or makes a distribution to all or substantially all holders of its Ordinary Shares consisting of shares of any class or series, or similar equity interests, of or relating to any of its Subsidiaries or other business units, the Conversion Price will be adjusted as follows:


		(D)
Adjusted Conversion Price = P x
		(D + v)

where:

“D” means the arithmetic mean of the daily Post-Distribution Prices of the Ordinary Shares for the 10 Trading Days commencing on and including the fifth trading day after the date on which “ex-dividend trading” commences for such dividend or distribution on the Singapore Exchange or such other principal exchange or market of which the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted (the “Ex-Dividend Date”).

“v” means the fair market value of portion of the securities distributed as is attributable to one Ordinary Share, less any consideration received by the Company in respect of such portion.

For purposes of this subsection (e):

The Adjustment Effective Date, in the case of this subsection (e), shall be the record date set for the relevant dividend or distribution giving rise to the adjustment.

(f)

If the Company determines after consultation with the Trustee that any other adjustment should be made to the Conversion Price, the Company will make such adjustment which is fair and reasonable in the opinion of its Board of Directors.

For purposes of subsection (a) to (f) above, as applicable:

Section 13.5. General Provisions Relating to Adjustment.

The Company may not reduce the Conversion Price from time to time so that on conversion, Ordinary Shares would be issued at a discount to their par value. Except in the case of a consolidation or reclassification of Ordinary Shares pursuant to Section 13.4(a)(iii), the Conversion Price will not be increased as a result of any adjustment.

In case of an adjustment that becomes effective on the record date of an issuance or distribution giving rise to the adjustment, if the actual amount of adjustment cannot be determined on such record date because certain terms of issuance or distribution have not been determined, the Company may elect to defer the effectiveness of such adjustment until it can be determined and such adjustment will take effect retroactively from the record date set for such issuance or distribution. In such case, the Company shall issue additional Ordinary Shares, as a result of such adjustment, to the Holders who surrendered for conversion between such record date and the date on which such adjustment is determinable.

If any doubt arises as to the appropriate adjustment to the Conversion Ratio, a certificate of the Company’s auditors at the time will be conclusive and binding on all concerned except in the case of manifest error.

No adjustment will be made to the Conversion Price where the adjustment, rounded to the nearest cent as provided below, if applicable, would be less than one percent of the Conversion Price then in effect. On any adjustment, the resulting Conversion Price will be rounded to the nearest cent (or the smaller of the nearest cent in the case of two equally near cents). Any adjustment not required to be made and any amount by which the Conversion Price will be rounded will be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.

No adjustment will be made to the Conversion Price where Ordinary Shares or other securities, options or rights to subscribe for or purchase Ordinary Shares or other securities are issued pursuant to any stock option or purchase programs, plans or similar arrangements approved by the Board of Directors or the shareholders of the Company.

If a Conversion Date falls prior to the Adjustment Effective Date of an adjustment of the Conversion Price in circumstances where the issuance of Ordinary Shares in respect of the exercise of relevant conversion right falls on or after such Adjustment Effective Date, the Company shall issue to the relevant Holder the additional number of Ordinary Shares to which that Holder would have been entitled had the relevant Conversion Date fallen immediately following the Adjustment Effective Date.

Whenever the Company plans to take action that will result in the adjustment of the Conversion Price under Section 13.4 or the Conversion Price has been adjusted, the Company shall promptly notify Holders in a manner prescribed by Section 1.5. and file with the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate briefly stating the facts requiring the adjustment and the manner of computing it. For as long as the Convertible Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, and the rules of such stock exchange so require, the Company shall inform Kredietbank SA Luxembourgeoise in its capacity as the Company’s listing agent of any adjustment of the Conversion Price.

The Trustee has no duty to determine when an adjustment under this Article Thirteen should be made, how it should be made or what it should be. The Trustee has no duty to determine whether a supplemental indenture need be entered into or whether any provisions of any supplemental indenture are correct. The Trustee shall not be accountable for and makes no representation as to the validity or value of any securities or assets issued upon conversion of the Convertible Notes. The Trustee shall not be responsible for the Company’s failure to comply with this Article Thirteen. Each Conversion Agent (other than the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) shall have the same protection under this Section 13.5 as the Trustee.

The Company may, from time to time to the extent permitted by applicable law, reduce the Conversion Price of the Convertible Notes, at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors, by any amount for any period of at least 20 days, in which case the Company shall give at least 15 days’ notice of such decrease. The Company may, at its option, make such reductions in the Conversion Price, in addition to those set forth above, as the Board of Directors deems advisable to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Ordinary Shares resulting from any dividend or distribution of Ordinary Shares (or rights to acquire Ordinary Shares) or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes.

Section 13.6. Covenants Relating to Conversion Rights.

The Company shall, prior to issuance of any Convertible Notes hereunder, and from time to time as it may be necessary, reserve, out of its authorized but unissued Ordinary Shares, a sufficient number of Ordinary Shares to permit the conversion of all Convertible Notes Outstanding into Ordinary Shares. All Ordinary Shares delivered upon conversion of the Convertible Notes shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

The Company covenants that if any Ordinary Shares to be provided for the purpose of conversion of Convertible Notes hereunder require registration with or approval of any governmental authority before such shares may be validly issued upon conversion, the Company will in good faith and as expeditiously as practicable endeavor to secure such registration or approval, as the case may be.

Section 13.7. Conversion Duties of the Conversion Agent.

The Conversion Agent shall (i) accept deposit on behalf of the Company of any Convertible Note which the holder thereof desires to convert (and in respect of which a conversion notice is deposited with the Convertible Agent prior to the Conversion Date) together with a conversion notice duly completed and signed (where necessary); (ii) require each converting Holder to pay in accordance with Section 13.3 all stamp, issue, registration, excise and similar taxes or duties or transfer costs (if any) (other than as specified in clause (iii) below) arising on conversion in the country in which the Convertible Note is deposited for conversion or payable in any jurisdiction consequent upon the issue, delivery or transfer of Ordinary Shares or ADSs or any other property or cash upon reversion to or to the order of a person other than the converting Holder; and (iii) require the Company to pay in accordance with Section 13.3 all other expenses arising on the issue, allotment and delivery of the Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion.

Section 13.8. Exercise of Conversion Rights by the Trustee.

The Trustee may, at its absolute discretion (and without any responsibility for any loss occasioned thereby), within the period commencing on the date six days immediately prior to, and ending at the close of business on the third Business Day immediately prior to April 2, 2006 or the Redemption Date fixed for any early redemption of the Convertible Notes (on behalf of the relevant Holders, absent instructions to the contrary) by notice in writing to the Company exercise the conversion rights in respect of such Convertible Notes due for redemption on such date and in respect of which conversion rights have not previously been exercised by Holders if the Trustee is satisfied or is advised by an investment bank of international repute appointed by the Trustee that the net proceeds of an immediate sale of the Ordinary Shares arising from such conversion (disregarding any liability (other than a liability of the Trustee) to taxation or the payment of any capital, stamp, issue or registration duties consequent thereon) would be likely to exceed by 5% or more the net proceeds on redemption of the Convertible Notes.

All of the Ordinary Shares issued or delivered on such conversion shall be sold by, or on behalf of, the Trustee as soon as practicable, and (subject to any necessary consents being obtained and to the deduction by the Trustee of any amount which it determines to be payable in respect of its liability to taxation and the payment of any capital, stamp, issue, transfer or registration duties (if any) and any costs incurred by the Trustee in connection with the issue, delivery and sale thereof) the net proceeds of sale together with accrued and unpaid interest (if any) in respect of such Convertible Notes shall (if not in U.S. dollars) be converted into U.S. dollars in such manner and at such time and at such rates as the Trustee shall consider appropriate and be held by the Trustee and distributed ratably to the holders of such Convertible Notes. The amount payable to such holder shall be treated for all purposes as the full amount due from us in respect of such Convertible Notes.

The Trustee shall have no liability in respect of the exercise or non-exercise of its discretion pursuant to the above or the timing of such

exercise or in respect of any such sale of Ordinary Shares or conversion of any amounts into U.S. dollars, whether for the timing of any such sale or conversion, the price at which any such Ordinary Shares are sold, the rate at which any such amounts are converted into U.S. dollars or the inability to sell any such Ordinary Shares or make such conversion or otherwise. In the event the Trustee exercises conversion rights on behalf of any Holders of Convertible Notes pursuant to this Section 13.8, notice of such exercise will be published in a manner prescribed in Section 1.5.

Any reference in this Supplemental Indenture to principal in respect of the Convertible Notes shall, unless the context otherwise requires, also be deemed to refer to any amounts which may be payable pursuant to the above.”

ARTICLE FIVE

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO THE CONVERTIBLE NOTES

The Convertible Notes shall have the benefit of the following provisions which shall replace Section 6.1, Section 6.2, and Section 6.3 of the Indenture, respectively, in their entirety with respect to the Convertible Notes:

Section 6.1. Events of Default.

“Event of Default”, wherever used herein, means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

(1) default in the payment of the principal of any of the Convertible Notes at Maturity; or

(2) default in the payment of any premium or interest on any of the Convertible Notes when it becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; or

(3) default in the performance, or breach, of any covenant or agreement of the Company in this Supplemental Indenture (other than a default in the performance, or breach, of a covenant or agreement which is specifically dealt with elsewhere in this Section), and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 60 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Convertible Notes Outstanding a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder; or

(4) (A) there shall have occurred one or more defaults by the Company or any Material Subsidiary in the payment of the principal of Indebtedness aggregating US$30 million or more, when the same becomes due and payable at the Stated Maturity thereof, and such default or defaults shall have continued after any applicable grace period and shall not have been cured or waived or (B) Indebtedness of the Company or any Material

Subsidiary aggregating US$30 million or more shall have been accelerated or otherwise declared due and payable, or required to be prepaid or repurchased (other than by regularly scheduled required prepayment), prior to the Stated Maturity thereof; and, in each case, continuance of such default or non-annulment of such acceleration for a period of 30 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Convertible Notes Outstanding a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder; or

(5) (A) the entry of a decree or order by a court having jurisdiction in the premises adjudging the Company or any of its Material Subsidiaries a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Company or any of its Material Subsidiaries for the benefit of its creditors under any applicable law, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator (or other similar official) of the Company or any of its Material Subsidiaries or of any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 90 consecutive days; or (B) the institution by the Company or any of its Material Subsidiaries of proceedings to be adjudicated as bankrupt or insolvent, or the consent by it to the institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against it, or the filing by it of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief for the benefit of its creditors under any applicable law, or the consent by it to the filing of any such petition or to the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator (or other similar official) of the Company or such Material Subsidiary or of any substantial part of its property, or the making by it of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the admission by it in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due.

Section 6.2. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Convertible Notes Outstanding may declare the Accreted Value of all the Convertible Notes to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration such Accreted Value shall become immediately due and payable.

At any time after a declaration of acceleration has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter provided in this Article, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Convertible Notes Outstanding, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if

(1)

the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay,

(A)

all overdue interest on all Convertible Notes Outstanding,

	(B)		all unpaid principal of any Convertible Notes Outstanding which has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, and interest on such unpaid principal at the rate borne by the Convertible Notes,

	(C)		to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue interest at the rate borne by the Convertible Notes, and

	(D)		all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; and

(2) all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of amounts of principal of or interest on Convertible Notes which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in this Section 5.2.

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 6.3. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

The Company covenants that if

(a) default is made in the payment of any installment of interest on any Convertible Note when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or

(b) default is made in the payment of the principal of any Convertible Note at the Maturity thereof,

the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of such Convertible Notes, the whole amount then due and payable on such Convertible Notes for principal, premium and interest, and interest on any overdue principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon any overdue installment of interest or premium, at the rate borne by the Convertible Notes, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon the Convertible Notes and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon the Convertible Notes, wherever situated.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any

covenant or agreement in this Supplemental Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

ARTICLE SIX

COVENANTS

Section 6.1. Consolidation, Merger, Conveyance, Transfer or Lease

The following provisions shall replace Article Five of the Indenture in its entirety with respect to the Convertible Notes:

“ARTICLE V

SUCCESSORS

Section 5.1. Company May Consolidate, etc., Only on Certain Terms.

The Company shall not consolidate with or merge into any other corporation or, together with or through one or more of its Subsidiaries, convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis to any Person, unless:

(1) (A) the corporation formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or the Person which acquires by conveyance or transfer, or which leases, the properties and assets of the Company substantially as an entirety (a) shall be a corporation, partnership or trust or other entity organized and validly existing under the laws of Singapore or the United States and (b) shall expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in a form satisfactory to the Trustee, the Company’s obligation for the due and punctual payment of the principal of, and premium and interest, on all the Convertible Notes and the performance and observance of every covenant of this Supplemental Indenture and the Indenture on the part of the Company to be performed or observed , and (B) such supplemental indenture shall (a) provide that the Holder of each Convertible Note then Outstanding will have the rights, during the Conversion Period, to convert the Convertible Note into the kind and amount of Ordinary Shares, other securities, cash or other assets (with the Conversion Price appropriately allocated to such Ordinary Shares, other securities, cash or other assets) receivable upon the consolidation, merger, sale or similar events by a Holder of the number of Ordinary Shares into which the Convertible Note might have been converted immediately prior to that consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or similar events, and (b) provide for adjustments to Conversion Price which, for events subsequent to the effective date of such supplemental indenture, shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for under Section 13.4;

(2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

(3) the Company or such Person shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating

that such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease and such supplemental indenture comply with the relevant terms and conditions of this Supplemental Indenture and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with.

This Section shall only apply to a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation and to conveyances, leases and transfers by the Company as transferor or lessor.

Section 5.2. Successor Person Substituted.

Upon any consolidation by the Company with or merger by the Company into any other corporation or any conveyance, transfer or lease of the properties and assets of the Company substantially as an entirety to any Person in accordance with Section 5.1, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or to which such conveyance, transfer or lease is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Supplemental Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Company herein, and in the event of any such conveyance or transfer, the Company (which term shall for this purpose mean the Person named as the “Company” in the first paragraph of this Supplemental Indenture or any successor Person which shall theretofore become such in the manner described in Section 5.1), except in the case of a lease, shall be discharged of all obligations and covenants under this Supplemental Indenture and the Convertible Notes and may be dissolved and liquidated.

Section 6.2. Negative Pledge.

The following additional covenant shall apply to the Convertible Notes:

6.2.1. So long as any Convertible Note remains Outstanding, the Company shall not, and shall procure that none of its Material Subsidiaries shall, create or permit to subsist any security interest upon the whole or any part of any present or future property or assets to secure the repayment of, or any guarantee or indemnity in respect of, any International Investment Securities without (i) at the same time or prior thereto securing the Convertible Notes equally and ratably with such securities or otherwise in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee or (ii) providing such other security for the Convertible Notes as the Trustee may, in its absolute discretion, deem to be not materially less beneficial to the holders of Convertible Notes or as may be approved by an extraordinary resolution of the Holders of Convertible Notes.

6.2.2. The foregoing restriction shall not apply to any security interest upon the whole or a part of any property or assets of the Company or any of its Material Subsidiaries, which security interest is:

(i) to secure any Indebtedness evidenced by International Investment Securities issued by the Company or by any of its Material Subsidiaries in each case solely for the purposes of financing the cost of the purchase, development, construction, equipping, alteration, repair or improvement of any property or assets acquired by the Company or by any of its Material Subsidiaries after April 2, 2001; provided that (A) the security interest is confined to such property or assets, (B) the principal amount of the International Investment Securities secured by such security interest shall not exceed such cost and (C) the security interest attaches to such

property or assets concurrently with or within 120 days of the time of the acquisition of such property or assets or the completion of the activity being financed;

(ii) to secure any Indebtedness evidenced by International Investment Securities existing on (A) any property or asset of any entity at the time the Company or one of its Subsidiaries acquire such entity after April 2, 2001, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise or (B) any property or asset at the time it is acquired by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries after April 2, 2001; provided that in each case such security interest shall not have been created in contemplation of or in connection with such acquisition;

(iii) a renewal, extension or replacement (in whole or in part) of any security interest permitted in subsections (i) and (ii) above of this Section 6.2.2.

Section 6.3. Payment of Principal, Interest and Additional Amounts.

The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of and premium and interest on the Convertible Notes in accordance with the terms of the Convertible Notes and this Supplemental Indenture.

All payments of, or in respect of, principal of and premium and interest on the Convertible Notes shall be made without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of Singapore or any authority thereof or therein having power to tax unless these taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges are required to be withheld or deducted. In that event, the Company agrees to pay by way of additional interest such additional amounts of, or in respect of, principal, premium and interest as will result (after deduction of such taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges and any additional taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of Singapore) in the payment to each Holder of a Convertible Note of the amounts that would have been payable in respect of such Convertible Notes had no withholding or deduction been required, except that no Additional Amounts shall be payable for or on account of:

(i) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the fact that such Xxxxxx:

(A) was for Singapore tax purposes treated as a resident of Singapore or who is otherwise subject to such taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges by reason of his being connected with Singapore other than the mere ownership of, or receipt of payment under, such Convertible Note; or

(B) presented such Convertible Note more than 30 days after the date on which the payment in respect of such Convertible Note first became due and payable or provided for, whichever is later, except to the extent that the Holder would have been entitled to such Additional Amounts if it had presented such Convertible Note for payment on any day within such period of 30 days;

(ii) any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

(iii) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge which is payable otherwise than by deduction or withholding from payment of principal of or premium or interest on the Convertible Notes;

(iv) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld by reason of the failure to comply by the Holder or the beneficial owner of a Convertible Note with a request by the Company addressed to the Holder (A) to provide information concerning the nationality, residence or identity of the Holder or such beneficial owner or (B) to make any declaration or other similar claim or satisfy any information or reporting requirement, which, in the case of (A) or (B), is required or imposed by a statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of the taxing jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from all or part of such tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge; or

(v) any combination of the items listed above;

nor shall Additional Amounts be paid with respect to any payment of the principal of or premium or interest on any Convertible Note to any Holder who is a fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of the payment to the extent that payment would be required by the laws of Singapore to be included in income for tax purposes of the fiduciary if the beneficial owner would not otherwise have been entitled to the Additional Amounts.

Any reference herein to the payment of the principal of or interest on any Convertible Note shall be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts provided for in this Supplemental Indenture to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable under this Supplemental Indenture.

Section 6.4. Maintenance of Office or Agency.

The Company will maintain in Luxembourg, Singapore and The City of New York an office or agency where Convertible Notes may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Convertible Notes may be presented for conversion, where Convertible Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Convertible Notes and this Supplemental Indenture may be served. The principal office of the Company shall serve as the office or agency of the Company in Singapore. The office of the Trustee in The City of New York shall serve as such office or agency of the Company in The City of New York. The offices of Kredietbank SA Luxembourgeoise (the “Luxembourg Paying Agent”) in Luxembourg shall serve as the office or agency of the Company in Luxembourg. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any change in the location of any such offices or agencies. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required offices or agencies or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the addresses thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the offices of the Trustee or the Luxembourg Paying Agent in the relevant locations, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee and the Luxembourg Paying Agent as its Paying Agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. The Security Register of the Convertible Notes will be kept by the Trustee in New York. The Company also hereby appoints the Trustee and the Luxembourg Paying Agent as Conversion Agents.

The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies (in or outside of Luxembourg or The City of New York) where the Convertible Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind any such designation; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in each of Luxembourg and The City of New York for such purposes and provided, further, that the Company shall be required at all times to maintain such an office or agency in each place of payment for the Convertible Notes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such Supplemental Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Convertible Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the March 18 or September 17 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date.

[Form of Reverse of Convertible Note]

2.50% Senior Convertible Notes due 2006

Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for Notes in certificated form, this Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depository to a nominee of the Depository or by a nominee of the Depository to the Depository or another nominee of the Depository or by the Depository or any such nominee to a successor Depository or a nominee of such successor Depository. Unless this certificate is presented by an authorized representative of The Depository Trust Company (00 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx) (“DTC”), to the issuer or its agent for registration of transfer, exchange or payment, and any certificate issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co. or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC (and any payment is made to Cede & Co. or such other entity as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL inasmuch as the registered owner hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest herein.²

This Convertible Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company designated as its 2.50% Senior Convertible Notes due 2006 (herein called the “Convertible Notes”), limited (except as otherwise provided in the Supplemental Indenture referred to below) in aggregate principal amount of up to US$575,000,000, which may be issued under an indenture (the “Indenture”), dated as of April 2, 2001, as supplemented by a supplemental indenture (herein called the “Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of April 2, 2001, between the Company and Xxxxx Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association, as trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Supplemental Indenture), to which Indenture and Supplemental Indenture reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties, obligations and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Convertible Notes, and of the terms upon which the Convertible Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

This Convertible Note may be redeemed or repurchased as set forth in the Supplemental Indenture and summarized below. In the event the Company redeems or repurchases this Convertible Note for any reason at a time other than April 2, 2006, the “Redemption Price” will equal 100% of the principal amount of this Convertible Note together with a premium calculated to provide a Holder with an annual yield of 5.25% from April 2, 2001 to the date of such redemption or repurchase, computed on a semi-annual internal rate of return bond equivalent basis, taking into account all interest paid on this Convertible Note and treating as having been paid when due all interest accrued and unpaid on this Convertible Note through the date of determination.

This Convertible Note is redeemable at the option of the Company, as a whole but not in part, on any date at a Redemption Price determined as described above, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date if the Company determines that, as a result of any change in or amendment to the laws or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder of Singapore or any official or judicial authority thereof or therein having power to tax, or any change in the general application or official or judicial interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, or any change in the official application or interpretation of, or any execution or amendment to, any treaty or treaties affecting taxation to which Singapore is a party, which change, execution or amendment becomes effective on or after the original issue date of the Convertible Notes, the Company has been or shall be required to pay Additional Amounts with respect to the Convertible Notes.

This Convertible Note is redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at any time on or after April 2, 2003, at a Redemption Price determined as described above, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that no such redemption may be made unless the closing price per Ordinary Share on the Singapore Exchange (translated into U.S. dollars at the Prevailing Exchange Rate on such Trading Day) or the ADSs on the Nasdaq National Market for


2		This paragraph should be included only if the Note is issued in global form.

any 20 Trading Days in a 30 consecutive Trading Day period ending not more than five days prior to the date on which notice of such redemption is given, is at least 125% of the Conversion Price (translated into U.S. dollars at the Fixed Exchange Rate) or of the Conversion Price per ADS (translated into U.S. dollars at the Fixed Exchange Rate specified in the Supplemental Indenture and taking into account the current 10:1 Ordinary Share-to-ADS ratio), in each case as adjusted through, and effective on, such notice date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may redeem all of the Convertible Notes Outstanding, including this Convertible Note, at a Redemption Price determined as described above, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date if at any time the aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes Outstanding is less than 5% of the aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes originally issued.

The Trustee may, at its absolute discretion (and without any responsibility for any loss occasioned thereby), within the period commencing on the date six days immediately prior to, and ending at the close of business on the third Business Day immediately prior to April 2, 2006 or the Redemption Date fixed for any early redemption of the Convertible Notes (on behalf of the relevant Holders, absent instructions to the contrary) by notice in writing to the Company exercise the conversion rights in respect of such Convertible Notes due for redemption on such date and in respect of which conversion rights have not previously been exercised by Holders if the Trustee is satisfied or is advised by an investment bank of international repute appointed by the Trustee that the net proceeds of an immediate sale of the Ordinary Shares arising from such conversion (disregarding any liability (other than a liability of the Trustee) to taxation or the payment of any capital, stamp, issue or registration duties consequent thereon) would be likely to exceed by 5% or more the amount of the redemption moneys and interest which would otherwise be payable in respect of such unexercised Convertible Notes.

All of the Ordinary Shares issued or delivered on such conversion shall be sold by, or on behalf of, the Trustee as soon as practicable, and (subject to any necessary consents being obtained and to the deduction by the Trustee of any amount which it determines to be payable in respect of its liability to taxation and the payment of any capital, stamp, issue, transfer or registration duties (if any) and any costs incurred by the Trustee in connection with the issue, delivery and sale thereof) the net proceeds of sale together with accrued and unpaid interest (if any) in respect of such unexercised Convertible Notes shall (if not in U.S. dollars) be converted into U.S. dollars in such manner and at such time and at such rates as the Trustee shall consider appropriate and be held by the Trustee and distributed ratably to the holders of such unexercised Convertible Notes. The amount payable to such holder shall be treated for all purposes as the full amount due from us in respect of such Convertible Notes.

The Trustee shall have no liability in respect of the exercise or non-exercise of its discretion pursuant to the above or the timing of such exercise or in respect of any such sale of Ordinary Shares or conversion of any amounts into U.S. dollars, whether for the timing of any such sale or conversion, the price at which any such Ordinary Shares are sold, the rate at which any such amounts are converted into U.S. dollars or the inability to sell any such Ordinary Shares or make such conversion or otherwise. In the event the Trustee exercises conversion rights on behalf of any Holders of Convertible Notes pursuant to Section 13.8 of the Supplemental Indenture, notice of such exercise will be published in a manner prescribed in Section 1.5 of the Supplemental Indenture.

This Convertible Note, or a portion thereof equal to US$1,000 or any integral multiple thereof, is subject to repayment by the Company at the option of the Holder hereof upon the occurrence of certain Repayment Events described in Section 3.2 of the Supplemental Indenture (including events relating to change of control of the Company or delisting of the Ordinary Shares or ADSs), at a Repayment Price determined as described above, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the Repayment Date. In order to be repaid at the option of the Holder, this Convertible Note, with the “Notice to Elect Repayment” form duly completed by the Holder hereof (or the Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing), must be received by the Company at its office or agency maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, Singapore, or Luxembourg not later than the date specified by the Company in its notice of the Repayment Event in accordance with Section 3.2 of the Supplemental Indenture. Exercise of such option by the Holder of this Convertible Note shall be irrevocable unless waived by the Company.

In the case of any redemption or repayment of Convertible Notes, interest installments whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date or Repayment Date will be payable to the Holders of such Convertible Notes, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date referred to on the face hereof, as provided in the Supplemental Indenture. Convertible Notes (or portions thereof) for whose redemption or repayment provision is made in accordance with the Supplemental Indenture shall cease to bear interest from and after the Redemption Date or Repayment Date (as applicable).

This Convertible Note is convertible into Ordinary Shares of the Company at any time on or after May 2, 2001 and before the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the earlier of April 2, 2006 and the Redemption Date fixed for any early redemption, at the Conversion Price then in effect; provided, however, that, if this Convertible Note is called for redemption pursuant to Section 3.1 of the Supplemental Indenture, such conversion right shall terminate at the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date for this Convertible Note. A Holder may convert a portion of this Convertible Note equal to US$1,000 or any integral multiple thereof.

The number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of this Convertible Note (or a portion hereof equal to US$1,000 or any integral multiple thereof) shall be determined by dividing the principal amount (translated into Singapore dollars at the Fixed Exchange Rate specified in the Supplemental Indenture) of this Convertible Note or portion hereof surrendered for conversion by the Conversion Price per Ordinary Share in effect on the Conversion Date. The initial Conversion Price is S$6.5170 per Ordinary Share, subject to adjustment for certain anti-dilution events as provided in Section 4.1 of the Supplemental Indenture. The Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and will rank equally with all other Ordinary Shares.

A Holder may elect to receive Ordinary Shares upon conversion in the form of ADSs. In such event, the Company agrees to, on behalf of such Holder, as soon as practicable, deliver to and deposit with the Depository or its custodian, in accordance with the terms of the ADS Deposit Agreement, such number of Ordinary Shares as the Holder would have received upon conversion had he not elected to receive such Ordinary Shares in the form of ADSs. Such Ordinary Shares will be registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee. Subject to compliance with the terms of the ADS Deposit Agreement, including payment of the fees and expenses of the ADS depository by such Holder, the ADS depository will issue such number of ADSs representing the deposited Ordinary Shares to such Holder based on the applicable share-to-ADS ratio then in effect.

All calculations relating to redemption and conversion, including adjustment of the Conversion Price, will be made to the nearest 0.01 of an Ordinary Share or other property or the nearest cent. However, fractions of Ordinary Shares will not be issued on conversion or deposited with the Depository, and no cash adjustments will be made in respect of any such fraction. Under the ADS Deposit Agreement, the Depository will not issue fractions of ADSs. To the extent the Depository does not accept a certain number of Ordinary Shares for deposit pursuant to the ADS Deposit Agreement, the Company will deliver such Ordinary Shares to the Holder.

To convert this Convertible Note, a Holder must (a) complete and manually sign a “Conversion Notice” substantially in the form included herein, including an election on whether to receive Ordinary Shares or ADSs upon conversion, and deliver such notice to the Conversion Agent, (b) surrender this Convertible Note to the Conversion Agent duly endorsed or assigned to the Company or in blank, (c) furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents (if any) required by the Registrar or the Conversion Agent, and (d) pay any required transfer or similar tax and make any other required payment. The date on which the Holder satisfies all of those requirements is the “Conversion Date.”

The Supplemental Indenture contains various provisions concerning circumstances where the record date set for a dividend on the Ordinary Shares or an Adjustment Effective Date for the adjustment of the Conversion Price falls between the Conversion Date and the Registration Date.

No payment or adjustment will be made for accrued and unpaid interest on this Convertible Note when delivered for conversion. The delivery of the fixed number of Ordinary Shares or ADSs upon conversion will be deemed to satisfy the Company’s obligation to apply the principal amount and any accrued and unpaid premium and interest on this Convertible Note from the Interest Payment Date immediately preceding the Conversion Date to the Conversion Date.

If any Holder surrenders this Convertible Note for conversion after the close of business on the Regular Record Date for the payment of an installment of interest and before the close of business on the related Interest Payment Date, then, notwithstanding such conversion, the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Holder of this Convertible Note on such Regular Record Date. In such event, unless this Convertible Note has been called for redemption, this Convertible Note, when surrendered for conversion, must be accompanied by delivery of a check or draft payable to the Company in an amount equal to the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date on the portion so converted. If such payment does not accompany this Convertible Note, this Convertible Note shall not be converted.

As conditions precedent to conversion, the Holder must pay to the Conversion Agent any taxes and capital, stamp, issue and registration duties arising on conversion, other than any taxes or capital or stamp duties payable in Singapore in respect of the allotment and issuance of the Ordinary Shares and listing of the Ordinary Shares upon conversion. In addition, the Holder will be required to pay any tax or duty relating to any disposal or any deemed disposal relating to conversion and transfer involved in the issue or delivery of the Ordinary Shares upon conversion in a name other than such Holder’s. The Company will pay all other expenses arising on the issue, allotment and delivery of the Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion.

In the event of conversion or repayment of this Convertible Note in part only, a new Convertible Note or Convertible Notes for the unpaid portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal of all the Convertible Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Supplemental Indenture.

The Supplemental Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders under the Supplemental Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes at the time Outstanding. The Supplemental Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Convertible Notes, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Supplemental Indenture and certain past defaults under the Supplemental Indenture and their consequences. Any such

consent or waiver by or on behalf of the Holder of this Convertible Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Convertible Note and of any Convertible Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Convertible Note.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Supplemental Indenture, the Holder of this Convertible Note shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Supplemental Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Convertible Notes, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Convertible Notes at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee indemnity, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Convertible Notes at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Convertible Note for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

No reference herein to the Supplemental Indenture and no provision of this Convertible Note or of the Supplemental Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Convertible Note at the times, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

As provided in the Supplemental Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Convertible Note is registrable on the Security Register of the Company, upon surrender of this Convertible Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose in Luxembourg and The City of New York, respectively, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Convertible Notes, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Convertible Notes are issuable only in fully registered form without coupons in denominations of US$1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. As provided in the Supplemental Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Convertible Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Convertible Notes, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

Prior to the time of due presentment of this Convertible Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Convertible Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Convertible Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
