(i) actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of the Group Companies or their respective affiliates, officers, directors, employees or agents in breach or violation of their respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement or any of the other Documents;

27

(ii) any breach by any of the Group Companies of their respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement or in any of the other Documents;

(iii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact, or the omission or alleged omission to state in the Disclosure Schedule, a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

and, subject to the provisions hereof, will reimburse the Indemnified Persons for all reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) as they are incurred in connection with investigating, preparing, defending or settling any such action or claim, whether or not in connection with litigation in which any Indemnified Person is a named party. If any of the Indemnified Persons’ personnel appears as witnesses, are deposed or are otherwise involved in the defense of any action against an Indemnified Person, any of the Group Companies or their respective officers or directors, the Group Companies will reimburse the Purchaser for all reasonable expenses incurred by the Purchaser by reason of any of the Indemnified Persons being involved in any such action; provided, however, any of the Group Companies shall not be liable for indemnification hereunder with regard to any fraud, grossly negligent act or omission or willful misconduct by the Purchaser or any other Indemnified Person which is the sole cause of, and results in the unavailability to the Company (or any of its affiliates) or to the offering of the Securities of the exemption from the registration requirements of the Act provided by Regulation S thereunder. This indemnity will be in addition to any liability that any of the Group Companies may otherwise have to the Indemnified Persons.

(b) As promptly as reasonably practical after receipt by an Indemnified Person under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action for which such Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification under this Section 8, such Indemnified Person will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof in writing; but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability under paragraph (a) above unless and only to the extent it is materially prejudiced as a result thereof and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any Indemnified Person other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) above. In case any such action is brought against any Indemnified Person, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate (but not the right to direct) therein with counsel satisfactory to such Indemnified Person (who shall not, except with the written consent of such Indemnified Person, be counsel to the indemnifying party) at the expense of the indemnifying party; provided, however, that if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the Indemnified Person would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or are targets of, any such action include both the Indemnified Person and the indemnifying party, and the Indemnified Person shall have been advised by counsel that

28

there may be one or more legal defenses available to it and/or any other Indemnified Person that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, or (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Person to represent the Indemnified Person within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action, then, in each such case, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Person or Persons and such Indemnified Person or Persons shall have the right to select separate counsel (including an additional local counsel) to defend such action on behalf of such Indemnified Person or Persons at the expense of the indemnifying party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such Indemnified Person of its election so to assume the defense thereof and approval by such Indemnified Person of counsel appointed to defend such action, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such Indemnified Person under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses, other than reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with the defense thereof, unless (i) the Indemnified Person shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that in connection with such action the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to local counsel) in any one action or separate but substantially similar actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, representing the Indemnified Persons who are parties to such action or actions) or (ii) the indemnifying party has authorized in writing the employment of counsel for the Indemnified Person at the expense of the indemnifying party. After such notice from the indemnifying party to such Indemnified Person, the indemnifying party will not be liable for the costs and expenses of any settlement of such action effected by such Indemnified Person without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(c) No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of any Indemnified Person, effect any settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action, claim, suit or proceeding in respect of which the Indemnified Person is or could have been a party, or indemnity could have been sought hereunder by any Indemnified Person (whether or not the Indemnified Person is an actual or potential party to such action or claim), unless such settlement (A) includes an unconditional express written release of any Indemnified Person in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, from all losses, claims, damages or liabilities arising out of such action, claim, suit or proceeding and (B) does not include any statement as to an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person. If a claim or action is settled, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff with respect to any such claim or action, each indemnifying party jointly and severally agrees, subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth above, to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities (and legal and other expenses as set forth above) incurred by reason of such settlement or judgment.

(d) To provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability in any case in which either (i) any party otherwise entitled to indemnification hereunder makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 8 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case, notwithstanding the

29

fact that this Section 8 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution may be required on the part of any party hereto for which indemnification is provided under this Section 8, then, and in each such case, such parties will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of each of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in connection with the statements, omissions, or other actions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability, or expense, as well as to reflect any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that, in any such case, no Indemnified Person will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the price paid by such Indemnified Person (or its Affiliate) for the Securities.

(e) The indemnity and expense reimbursement obligations set forth herein (i) shall be in addition to any liability any of the Group Companies may have to any Indemnified Person at common law or otherwise, (ii) shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Purchaser or any other Indemnified Person and (iii) shall be binding on any successor or assignee of any of the Group Companies and successors or assignees of any of the Group Companies’ business and assets.

(f) If any of the Group Companies enters into any agreement or arrangement with respect to, or effects, any proposed sale, exchange, dividend or other distribution or liquidation of all or a significant portion of its assets in one or a series of transactions or any significant recapitalization or reclassification of its outstanding securities, such Group Company shall provide for the assumption of their obligations under this Agreement by another party reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser.

9. Termination.

(a) This Agreement may be terminated, and the transactions contemplated hereby may be abandoned at any time before the Closing Date, by mutual written agreement of the Company and the Purchaser.

(b) The Purchaser may terminate this Agreement at any time prior to the Closing by written notice to the Company if any of the following has occurred:

(i) since the date hereof, any Material Adverse Effect or development involving or reasonably expected to result in a prospective Material Adverse Effect that could, in the Purchaser’s reasonable judgment, be expected to make it impracticable to proceed with the purchase of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in this Agreement and the Indenture;

(ii) the failure of any of the Group Companies to satisfy any of the conditions contained in Section 7(i) hereof on or prior to September 30, 2007;

(iii) any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or other national or international calamity or crisis, including acts of terrorism, or material adverse change or disruption in economic conditions in, or in the financial markets of, the United States, the European Union, PRC or Hong Kong (it being understood that any such change or disruption shall be relative to such conditions and markets as in effect on the date hereof), if the effect of such outbreak, escalation, calamity, crisis, act or material adverse change in the economic conditions in, or in the financial markets of, the United States, the European Union or Hong Kong could be expected to make it, in the Purchaser’s sole judgment, impracticable to proceed with the consummation of the transactions on the terms and in the manner contemplated in this Agreement or the Indenture;

30

(iv) the enactment, publication, decree or other promulgation after the date hereof of any Applicable Law that has or could be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; or

(v) the declaration of a banking moratorium by any federal or New York state Governmental Authority; or the taking of any action by any Governmental Authority after the date hereof in respect of its monetary or fiscal affairs that has or could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial markets in the United States, European Union, Hong Kong or elsewhere.

(c) If this Agreement is validly terminated pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) below, this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void, and there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of the Company or the Purchaser (or any of its respective officers, directors, employees, agents or other representatives or affiliates) under this Agreement or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, except that (i) such termination shall not relieve any breaching party from liability hereunder from willful breach of any representation or warranty contained herein or any breach of any covenant or agreement contained herein, and (ii) notwithstanding such termination, the Company shall be responsible for the fees and expenses in accordance with Section 5(b) hereof.

10. Survival of Representations and Indemnities. The representations and warranties, covenants, indemnities and contribution and expense reimbursement provisions and other agreements of any of the Group Companies and the Purchaser set forth in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, and will survive regardless of (i) any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of the Purchaser, any of the Group Companies, and (ii) acceptance of the Securities, and payment for them hereunder; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the representations and warranties of any of the Group Companies and the Purchaser will survive until the second anniversary of the Closing Date.

11. Substitution of Purchaser. The Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its Affiliates as the purchaser of the Units, by written notice to the Company, which notice shall be signed by the Purchaser and such Affiliate, shall contain such Affiliate’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such Affiliate of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 6 hereof. Upon receipt of such notice, wherever the word “Purchaser” is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section 11), such word shall be deemed to refer to such Affiliate in lieu of the original purchaser. In the event that such Affiliate is so substituted as a purchaser hereunder and such Affiliate thereafter transfers to the original purchaser all of the Securities then held by such Affiliate, upon receipt by the Company of notice of such transfer, wherever the word “Purchaser” is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section 11), such word shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Affiliate, but shall refer to the original purchaser, and the original purchaser shall have all the rights of an original holder of the Units under this Agreement.
