WHEREAS, Spring Creek has agreed to acquire (the “Acquisition”) AutoChina pursuant to certain agreements.

WHEREAS, the approval of the Acquisition is contingent upon, among other things, the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the outstanding ordinary shares of Spring Creek voting at the meeting to approve the Acquisition.

WHEREAS, pursuant to certain provisions in Spring Creek’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, a holder of ordinary shares of Spring Creek issued in the IPO may, if such holder votes against the Acquisition, demand that Spring Creek convert such ordinary shares into cash (“Conversion Rights”).

WHEREAS, the Acquisition is subject to the exercise of Conversion Rights by holders of less than 40% of the Spring Creek ordinary shares issued in the IPO.

WHEREAS, the Seller is the holder of an aggregate of 12,500 ordinary shares of the Company (the “Shares”) and is interested in acquiring the right to require the Company to purchase the Shares, and the Company is interested in acquiring the right to require the Seller to sell the Shares, in each case during the time periods and upon the terms and conditions described herein.

Put Option. The Company hereby grants the Seller the option to require the Company to buy from the Seller any or all of the Shares owned by the Seller at the Option Price during the two week period commencing on the six month anniversary of the closing of the Acquisition (the “Put Option”). In order to exercise the Put Option, Seller shall deliver to the Company a put option notice in the form of Schedule I hereto.

Call Option. The Seller hereby grants the Company, or its assigns, the option to require the Seller to sell to the Company, or its assignees, any or all of the Shares owned by the Seller at the Option Price from the date of this Agreement until the last date on which the Put Option may be exercised in accordance with Section 2 (the “Call Option”); provided, however, that the Company may not exercise the Call Option if the Market Price of the Company’s ordinary shares on the applicable date exceeds the Option Price. The Company may assign, in whole or in part, the Call Option at any time prior to its expiration, and the assignment or exercise of the Call Option with respect to any Shares shall not limit the Company’s rights under the Call Option with respect to any remaining Shares. In order to exercise the Call Option, the Company, or its assigns, shall deliver to the Seller a call option notice in the form of Schedule II hereto.

Completion. If either the Put Option or Call Option is exercised, a closing shall be held on the Closing Date specified in the relevant notice (provided that with respect to the Put Option the Closing Date shall be no earlier than a date that is two weeks after the date that the Company receives such notice) at the offices of the Company’s counsel, Loeb & Loeb LLP, 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000 at which Seller will deliver certificates representing such Shares as shall have been specified in the relevant notice (or shall have delivered such Shares through the book-entry facilities of DTC at the election of the Seller) and the Company, or its assigns, will deliver immediately available funds equal to the Option Price per Share to an account of Seller furnished to the Company and its assigns, as applicable, at least five business days prior to such closing. In the event the Put Option is exercised with respect to any of the Shares, the Company, or its assigns, may exercise the Call Option and in lieu of Closing on the Put Option may close on the Call Option with respect to such Shares; provided, however, that the Closing Date of such exercise of the Call Option shall be no later than the Closing Date specified in the relevant put option notice.
