Agreement, the Company shall not take any of the following actions without the

6.5.1. issue,
at an issuance price or conversion or exercise price per Class A Share which
shall be less than
the $2.25 Per Share Price at which the Purchaser acquired its Class A Shares

Shares;
6.5.2. own

Execution
Copy
6.6.7 until
a date which shall be five (5) years from the Closing Date, any vote or decision
by the Company to effect a Sale of Control of the Company, Trussnet or any
Trussnet Subsidiaries.
The
negative covenants set forth in this Section 6.6 shall be
of no further force or effect upon the earlier to occur of (a) the consummation
of the Merger, or (b) in the event of a Sale of Control of the Purchaser to any
unaffiliated Person that is in the telecommunications industry and engaged in
activities that are, or could reasonably be expected to be, competitive with the
business of the Company, the Company Subsidiaries or Chinacomm.
6.7. Adjustments
to Purchaser’s Class B Shares. As of March 31,
2009 Maturity Date of the Purchaser Note, the Parties shall calculate the
aggregate number of Class A Common Shares and Equivalents owned by the Purchaser
and divide this by the aggregate number of Class A Common Shares then issued and
outstanding and the result thereof shall be the “Purchaser’s Class A
Percentage Interest” as at such date (the “Post-Closing Class A
Percentage Interest”). In the event the Purchaser’s
Post Closing Class A Percentage Interest shall thereafter decrease, whether as a
result of either (a) the issuance by the Company of additional Class A Common
Shares or other securities convertible into or exercisable for Class A Common
Shares (not subject to any anti-dilution right) or (b) the sale by the Purchaser
of any Class A Common Shares or Series A Preferred Shares, then and in such
event the Purchaser’s Post-Closing Class A Percentage Interest shall be
recalculated after giving effect to such issuance by the Company or sale by the
Purchaser and the same shall be deemed the “Adjusted Class A Percentage
Interest”. The difference between the Purchaser’s Post-Closing
Class A Percentage Interest and the Adjusted Class A Percentage Interest shall
be referred to herein as the “Purchaser’s Percentage
Decrease”. Upon the occurrence of the Purchaser’s Percentage
Decrease, a number of Class B Common Shares held by the Purchaser as determined
by multiplying the aggregate number of Class B Common Shares then owned by the
Purchaser by the Purchaser’s Percentage Decrease shall be transferred to the
Class B Holders (other than the Purchaser) on a pro rata basis.
The
following is intended as an example by way of illustration only:
Assuming
that at the expiration of the Post-Closing Option Period, the Purchaser is the
holder of 30,000,000 Class B Common Shares and 100,000,000 Class A Common
Shares. Further, the aggregate issued and outstanding Class A Common Shares of
the Company is 220,000,000 Class A Common Shares. The Purchaser’s
Post-Closing Class A Percentage Interest would then be 45.45% of all Class A
Common Shares. The Purchaser thereafter sells 20,000,000 of its Class
A Common Shares, causing the Purchaser’s Adjusted Class A Percentage Interest to
be 36.36% (80.0 million divided by 220.0 million), representing a Purchaser’s
Percentage Decrease of 9.09%. As a result 2,727,000 of the Class B
Common Shares held by the Purchaser would be transferred to the other Class B
Holders on a pro rata basis, calculated as the 9.09% Purchaser’s Percentage
Decrease multiplied by 30,000,000.
