RECITALS

AGREEMENT

In consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

PURCHASE AND SALE

Section 1.1 Purchase and Sale of the Shares.

(a) Subject to Section 1.1(b), and Section 1.1(c), upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing, the Buyer shall purchase, and the Seller shall sell, convey, assign, transfer and deliver 198,000,000 Shares (the “Sale Shares”), free and clear of all Encumbrances (as defined below), to the Buyer for an aggregate purchase price of U.S.$1,188,000,000 (subject to adjustment in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.2), less the aggregate amount of any and all dividends (whether “quarterly”, “ordinary” or “special” ), other than any Excluded Dividend (as defined below), paid or payable to the Seller in respect of the Sale Shares¹ on or after the date of this Agreement (the “Purchase Price”). “Excluded Dividend” means any “quarterly” or “ordinary” dividend that is declared or has a record date for payment at any time on and from 15 February 2017 until Closing.

(b) The agreement to sell and buy the Sale Shares in Section 1.1(a) is not, and is not deemed to be, entered into, and therefore is not binding or enforceable, until the date when the condition described in Section 5.1(b) and Section 5.2(b) (“Condition Precedent to Agreement”) is satisfied. For the avoidance of doubt all the provisions of this Agreement, other than Section 1.1(a), are binding and enforceable on the parties on the date this Agreement has been executed and delivered by each of the parties.

¹	On the basis that the Seller is the registered holder of the Sale Shares on the record date for payment of the dividend.

(c) On the date on which the Condition Precedent to Agreement is satisfied, the agreement to sell and buy the Sale Shares in Section 1.1(a) will be, and will be deemed for all purposes to be, entered into, without any further action required on the part of any party, and the agreement to sell and buy the Sale Shares will be wholly on the terms set out herein and, thereupon and only then, will the agreement to sell and buy the Sale Shares become binding and enforceable on the parties.

Section 1.2 Adjustment. The amount of U.S.$1,188,000,000 specified in Section 1.1 as a component of the Purchase Price (the “Base Purchase Amount”) shall be increased in the following circumstances:

(a) If any “quarterly” or “ordinary” dividend is declared on and from 15 February 2017 until Closing and has a record date after Closing and is received by the Buyer or its nominee as registered holder of the Sale Shares, the amount of such dividend received by the Buyer or its nominee (or any transferee of the Buyer or its nominee or any subsequent transferee) in respect of the Sale Shares shall be added to the Base Purchase Price;

(b) If Closing occurs on or after 1 March 2017 and on or before 30 April 2017, there shall be added to the Base Purchase Amount an amount calculated at a rate of 0.5% of the Base Purchase Amount per month in respect of the period commencing on (and including) 1 March 2017 and ending on (and including) the earlier of (i) the calendar day immediately preceding the date on which Closing occurs and (ii) 30 April 2017. Such amount shall be deemed to accrue on a daily basis. Any amount required to be prorated in respect of a Closing occurring on or prior to 30 April 2017 shall be calculated as the monthly amount divided by the number of calendar days in the respective month.

(c) If Closing occurs on or after 1 May 2017 and on or before 30 June 2017, there shall be added to the Base Purchase Amount (i) the amount calculated in accordance with Section 1.2(b) in respect of the period from 1 March 2017 to 30 April 2017 and (ii) an additional amount calculated at a rate of 1.0% of the Base Purchase Amount (being the amount of US$1,188,000,000, prior to the addition of any amount pursuant to Section 1.2(b)) per month in respect of the period commencing on (and including) 1 May 2017 and ending on (and including) the earlier of (i) the calendar day immediately preceding the date on which Closing occurs and (ii) 30 June 2017. The amount referred to in clause (ii) shall be deemed to accrue on a daily basis. Any amount required to be prorated under clause (ii) in respect of a Closing occurring on or after 1 May 2017 but on or prior to 30 June 2017 shall be calculated as the monthly amount divided by the number of calendar days in the respective month.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Sections 1.2(b) and 1.2(c) shall not apply, and the Base Purchase Amount shall not be increased, to the extent that Closing is delayed due to the Seller’s breach or failure to perform any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Seller pursuant to this Agreement, or any inaccuracy in any representation or warranty given by the Seller pursuant to this Agreement.

For the avoidance of doubt, if this Section 1.2 applies it remains the case that the entire aggregate amount of any and all dividends (whether “quarterly, “ordinary” or “special”), other than an Excluded Dividend, paid or payable to the Seller in respect of the Sale Shares on or after the date of this Agreement shall be deducted from the Base Purchase Amount (as increased pursuant to this Section 1.2), in order to calculate the Purchase Price.

Section 1.3 Closing. The sale and purchase of the Sale Shares shall take place at a closing (the “Closing”) to be held electronically at 10:00 a.m., Hong Kong time (or at such place or other time as the Buyer and the Seller may mutually agree in writing), on the Closing Date. At the Closing, (a) the Buyer shall deliver to the Seller an amount equal to the Purchase Price, in U.S. dollars, in immediately available funds and (b) the Seller shall deliver to the Buyer evidence satisfactory to the Buyer (acting reasonably) of the registration of the Sale Shares in the name of the Buyer in the stock records of the Company.

Section 1.4 Closing Date. In this Agreement, Closing Date means:

(a) the fifth (5) Business Day (being a day on which banks are open for business in Hong Kong and New York, but excluding a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday) immediately following the first day on which all the conditions set forth in Article V (other than those conditions which by their nature can be satisfied only on Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions) are satisfied (or waived in accordance with Section 5.1 or Section 5.2); or

(b) any other date agreed in writing by the Seller and the Buyer.
