4.5.1 in the event of a Hong Kong Public Offering Under-Subscription, the number of Hong Kong Offer Shares which have not been applied for pursuant to Accepted Hong Kong Public Offering Applications; or

4.5.2 in the event of a Hong Kong Public Offering Over-Subscription, the number of times by which the number of Hong Kong Offer Shares which have been applied for pursuant to Accepted Hong Kong Public Offering Applications exceeds the total number of Hong Kong Offer Shares initially available under the Hong Kong Public Offering; and

4.6.1 the obligations of the Hong Kong Underwriters with respect to the Unsold Hong Kong Offer Shares under this Clause 4.6 shall be several (and not joint or joint and several);

4.6.2 the number of Unsold Hong Kong Offer Shares which each Hong Kong Underwriter is obligated to apply to purchase or procure applications to purchase under this Clause 4.6 shall be calculated by applying the formula below (but shall not in any event exceed the maximum number of Hong Kong Offer Shares as set forth opposite the name of such Hong Kong Underwriter in Part 2 of Schedule 1):

[ N = T x

(C − P ) ] (AC − AP)

where in relation to such Hong Kong Underwriter:

N is the number of Unsold Hong Kong Offer Shares which such Hong Kong Underwriter is obligated to apply to purchase or procure applications to purchase under this Clause 4.6, subject to such adjustment as the Overall Coordinator may determine to avoid fractional shares;

AC is the aggregate number of Hong Kong Offer Shares determined after taking into account any reduction pursuant to Clauses 2.6, 4.10, 4.11.1 and 4.12, as applicable; and

AP is the aggregate number of Hong Kong Offer Shares comprised in the Hong Kong Underwriter’s Applications of all the Hong Kong Underwriters; and

4.6.3 the obligations of the Hong Kong Underwriters determined pursuant to this Clause 4.6 may be rounded, as determined by the Overall Coordinatorin its sole and absolute discretion, to avoid fractions and odd lots. The determination of the Overall Coordinator of the obligations of the Hong Kong Underwriters with respect to the Unsold Hong Kong Offer Shares under this Clause 4.6 shall be final and conclusive.

None of the Hong Kong Underwriters (either jointly, severally or jointly and severally) will be liable for any failure on the part of any of the other Hong Kong Underwriters to perform its obligations under this Clause 4.6 or otherwise under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Hong Kong Underwriters shall be entitled to enforce any or all of its rights under this Agreement either alone or jointly with the other Hong Kong Underwriters.

Detailed provisions relating to the set-off of the Hong Kong Public Offering Underwriting Commitment of a Hong Kong Underwriter are set out in Schedule 4.

4.8 Accepted Applications: The Company agrees that all duly completed and submitted applications received prior to the closing of the Application Lists and accepted by the Overall Coordinator pursuant to Clause 4.5, either in whole or in part, will be accepted by the Company before calling upon the Hong Kong Underwriters or any of them to perform their obligations under Clause 4.6.

Any application submitted or procured to be submitted by the Overall Coordinator pursuant to this Clause 4.10 in respect of which payment is made mutatis mutandis in accordance with Clause 4.9 shall satisfy pro tanto the obligation of the relevant Hong Kong Underwriter under Clause 4.6 but shall not affect any agreement or arrangement among the Hong Kong Underwriters regarding the payment of Underwriting Commission.

In such case, the Hong Kong Public Offering Underwriting Commitment of the Hong Kong Underwriters shall be reduced as the Overall Coordinator may in its sole and absolute discretion determine. Any Hong Kong Offer Shares which are so reallocated from the Hong Kong Public Offering to the International Offering shall for all purposes (including any fee arrangement) be deemed to be International Offer Shares and will be allocated to increase the International Offering Underwriting Commitment of the International Underwriters as the Overall Coordinator may in its sole and absolute discretion determine. The Hong Kong Underwriters will not be entitled to the Underwriting Commission and the Incentive Fee (if any) in respect of such Offer Shares reallocated to the International Offering;

4.11.2 if the number of Hong Kong Offer Shares validly applied for under the Hong Kong Public Offering represents less than 15 times the number of the Hong Kong Offer Shares initially available for subscription under the Hong Kong Public Offering, then the Overall Coordinator has the discretion (but shall not be under any obligation) to reallocate up to 1,213,600 Offer Shares to the Hong Kong Public Offering from the International Offering, so that the total number of the Offer Shares available under the Hong Kong Public Offering will be increased to 2,427,200 Offer Shares, representing 20% of the number of the Offer Shares initially available under the Global Offering, provided that the final Offer Price must be fixed at the low end of the indicative Offer Price range;

4.11.3 if the number of Hong Kong Offer Shares validly applied for under the Hong Kong Public Offering represents 15 times or more but less than 50 times the number of the Hong Kong Offer Shares initially available for subscription under the Hong Kong Public Offering, the number of Offer Shares to be reallocated to the Hong Kong Public Offering from the International Offering will be increased so that the total number of the Offer Shares available under the Hong Kong Public Offering will be 3,640,800 Offer Shares, representing 30% of the Offer Shares initially available under the Global Offering;

4.11.4 if the number of Hong Kong Offer Shares validly applied for under the Hong Kong Public Offering represents 50 times or more but less than 100 times the number of the Hong Kong Offer Shares initially available for subscription under the Hong Kong Public Offering, the number of Offer Shares to be reallocated to the Hong Kong Public Offering from the International Offering will be increased so that the total number of the Offer

Shares available under the Hong Kong Public Offering will be 4,854,400 Offer Shares, representing 40% of the Offer Shares initially available under the Global Offering; and

4.11.5 if the number of Hong Kong Offer Shares validly applied for under the Hong Kong Public Offering represents 100 times or more the number of the Hong Kong Offer Shares initially available for subscription under the Hong Kong Public Offering, the number of the Offer Shares to be reallocated to the Hong Kong Public Offering from the International Offering will be increased so that the total number of the Offer Shares available under the Hong Kong Public Offering will be 6,068,000 Offer Shares, representing 50% of the Offer Shares initially available under the Global Offering,

4.12 Reallocation where the International Offer Shares are undersubscribed:

Where the International Offer Shares are undersubscribed:

4.12.1 if the Hong Kong Offer Shares are undersubscribed, the Global Offering will not proceed unless the Underwriters would subscribe or procure subscribers for their respective applicable proportions of the Offer Shares being offered which are not taken up under the Global Offering on the terms and conditions of the Hong Kong Public Offering Documents, this Agreement and the International Underwriting Agreement; and

4.12.2 If the Hong Kong Offer Shares are oversubscribed, irrespective of the number of times the number of Offer Shares initially available for subscription under the Hong Kong Public Offering, the Overall Coordinator has the discretion (but shall not be under any obligation) to reallocate up to 1,213,600 Offer Shares to the Hong Kong Public Offering from the International Offering, so that the total number of the Offer Shares available under the Hong Kong Public Offering will be increased to 2,427,200 Offer Shares, representing 20% of the number of the Offer Shares initially available under the Global Offering, provided that the final Offer Price must be fixed at the low end of the indicative Offer Price range.

In each of the events of reallocation set out in Clauses 4.11 and 4.12 (other than reallocation under Clause 4.11.1), the number of Offer Shares allocated to the International Offering will be correspondingly reduced, and the International Offering Underwriting Commitment of the International Underwriters shall be reduced, as the Overall Coordinator may in its sole and absolute discretion determine. Such Offer Shares reallocated from the International Offering to the Hong Kong Public Offering will be allocated between Pool A and Pool B (as described in the Hong Kong Prospectus) in the Hong Kong Public Offering. The Hong Kong Underwriters will not be entitled to the Underwriting Commission in respect of such reallocated Offer Shares.

Any settlement or compromise by any Indemnified Party, or any consent by any Indemnified Party to the entry of any judgement, in relation to any Proceeding shall be without prejudice to, and without (other than any obligations imposed on it by law) any accompanying obligation or duty to mitigate the same in relation to, any Loss it may recover from, or any Proceeding it may take against any of the Indemnifying Parties under this Agreement. An Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any settlement or compromise by any Indemnified Party of, or any judgment consented to by any Indemnified Party with respect to, any pending or threatened Proceeding, whether effected with or without the consent of such Indemnifying Party, and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement, or compromise or consent judgement. The rights of the Indemnified Parties herein are in addition to any rights that each Indemnified

Party may have at law or otherwise and the obligations of the Indemnifying Parties herein shall be in addition to any liability which the Indemnifying Parties may otherwise have.

12.5 Arrangements with advisers: If an Indemnifying Party enters into any agreement or arrangement with any adviser for the purpose of or in connection with the Global Offering, the terms of which provide that the liability of the adviser to the Indemnifying Party or any other person is excluded or limited in any manner, and any of the Indemnified Parties may have joint and/or several liability with such adviser to the Indemnifying Party or to any other person arising out of the performance of its duties under this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall:

12.5.1 not be entitled to recover any amount from any Indemnified Party which, in the absence of such exclusion or limitation, the Indemnifying Party would not have been entitled to recover from such Indemnified Party;

12.5.2 indemnify the Indemnified Parties in respect of any increased liability to any third party which would not have arisen in the absence of such exclusion or limitation; and

12.5.3 take such other action as the Indemnified Parties may require to ensure that the Indemnified Parties are not prejudiced as a consequence of such agreement or arrangement.

12.6 Costs: For the avoidance of doubt, the indemnity under this Clause 12 shall cover all costs, charges, fees and expenses which any Indemnified Party may suffer, incur or pay in disputing, investigating, responding to, defending, settling or compromising, or enforcing any settlement, compromise or judgment obtained with respect to, any Loss or any Proceeding to which the indemnity may relate and in establishing its right to indemnification under this Clause 12.

12.7 Payment on demand: All amounts subject to indemnity under this Clause 12 shall be paid by an Indemnifying Party as and when they are incurred within 30 calendar days of a written notice demanding payment being given to such Indemnifying Party by or on behalf of the relevant Indemnified Party.

12.8 Payment free from counterclaims/set-offs: All payments payable by an Indemnifying Party under this Agreement (including, without limitation, under this Clause 12) shall be made gross, free of any right of counterclaim or set off and without deduction or withholding of any kind, other than any deduction or withholding required by any Law. If an Indemnifying Party makes a deduction or withholding under this Agreement (including, without limitation, under this Clause 12), the sum due from such Indemnifying Party shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of any deduction or withholding, the relevant Indemnified Party which is entitled to such payment receives a sum equal to the sum it would have received had no deduction or withholding been made.

12.9 Taxation: If a payment under this Agreement (including, without limitation, under this Clause 12) will be or has been subject to Taxation, the Indemnifying Party shall pay the relevant Indemnified Party on demand the amount (after taking into account any Taxation payable in respect of the amount and treating for these purposes as payable any Taxation that would be payable but for a relief, clearance, deduction or credit) that will ensure that the relevant Indemnified Party receives and retains a net sum equal to the sum it would have received had the payment not been subject to Taxation.

12.10 Full force: The foregoing provisions of this Clause 12 will continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the Global Offering becoming unconditional and completion of the Global Offering and the matters and arrangements referred to or contemplated in this Agreement or the termination of this Agreement (as the case may be).

12.11 No limitations: The provisions of indemnities contained in this Clause 12 are not affected by any other terms (including any limitations) set out in this Agreement.

16 GOVERNING LAW; DISPUTE RESOLUTION; WAIVER OF IMMUNITY

16.1 Governing law: This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of Hong Kong.

16.2 Arbitration: Each party to this Agreement agrees, on behalf of itself and as agent for its respective affiliates, that any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its subject matter, existence, negotiation, validity, invalidity, termination or enforceability (including non-contractual disputes or claims, and disputes or claims against each party's affiliates) shall be referred to arbitration and finally settled under the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre Administered Arbitration Rules (the “Rules”) in force when the Notice of Arbitration is submitted in accordance with the Rules. The seat of arbitration shall be Hong Kong. The number of arbitrators shall be three. Each party shall nominate one arbitrator (together the “nominated arbitrators”) and the third arbitrator shall be nominated by agreement between the nominated arbitrators. The third arbitrator shall serve as chairman of the arbitral tribunal. The arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in English. This arbitration agreement shall be governed by the Laws of Hong Kong. The rights and obligations of the parties to submit disputes to arbitration pursuant to this Clause 16 shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the completion of the Global Offering and the matters and arrangements referred to or contemplated in this Agreement. Any party may bring proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction for ancillary, interim or interlocutory relief or for award enforcement in relation to any arbitration commenced under this Clause 16.

16.3 Submission to jurisdiction: Each of the parties hereto irrevocably submits to the non- exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Hong Kong to support and assist any arbitration commented under Clause 16.2, including if necessary the grant of ancillary, interim or interlocutory relief pending the outcome of such arbitration.

16.4 Service of documents: Each of the parties hereto irrevocably agrees that any writ, summons, order, judgment or other notice of legal process shall be sufficiently and effectively served on it if delivered in accordance with Clause 15. Specifically in relation to proceedings in the Hong Kong court, it is agreed that each of the Warrantors may be served in respect of an originating process, at the discretion of the plaintiff/ claimant/ applicant or equivalent as the case may be, by post at the address set out in Clause 15 or by leaving such process at that address marked for the attention of the Warrantor(s).

16.5 Process agent: The Company has established a place of business in Hong Kong at 5/F, Manulife Place, 348 Kwun Tong Road, Kowloon, Hong Kong, and has been registered as a non-Hong Kong company under Part 16 of the Companies Ordinance. Each of the Warrantors has appointed the Company (the “Process Agent”) as the authorized representative of each of them for the acceptance of service of process (which includes service of all and any documents relating to any court proceedings) and any notices to be served on any of them in Hong Kong. Service of process upon the Warrantors (as the case may be) by service upon the Process Agent in its capacity as agent for the service of process for the Warrantors (as the case may be) shall be deemed, for all purposes, to be due and effective service, and shall be deemed completed whether or not forwarded to or received by the Warrantors (as the case may be). If for any reason the Process Agent shall cease to be agent for the service of process for any of the Warrantors, such Warrantor (as the case may be) shall promptly notify the Sole Sponsor and the Overall Coordinator and within 30 days appoint a new agent for the service of

process in Hong Kong acceptable to the Sole Sponsor and the Overall Coordinator and deliver to each of the other parties hereto a copy of the new agent’s acceptance of that appointment as soon as reasonably practicable, failing which the Sole Sponsor and the

Overall Coordinator shall be entitled to appoint such new agent for and on behalf of such Warrantor (as the case may be), and such appointment shall be effective upon the giving of notice of such appointment to such Warrantor (as the case may be). Nothing in this Agreement shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by Laws. Where pursuant to Clause 16, proceedings are taken against the Company or any of the other Warrantors in the courts of any jurisdiction other than Hong Kong, upon being given notice in writing of such proceedings, the Company or such Warrantor (as the case may be) shall forthwith appoint an agent for the service of process (which includes service of all and any documents relating to such proceedings) in that jurisdiction acceptable to the Sole Sponsor and the Overall Coordinator and deliver to each of the other parties hereto a copy of the agent’s acceptance of that

appointment and shall give notice of such appointment to the other parties hereto within

14 days of such appointment, failing which the Sole Sponsor and the Overall Coordinator shall be entitled to appoint such agent for and on behalf of the Company or such Warrantor (as the case may be), and such appointment shall be effective upon the giving of notice of such appointment to the Company. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by Clause 15 or Laws.

16.6 Waiver of immunity: To the extent that in any proceedings in any jurisdiction (including, without limitation, arbitration proceedings), any of the Warrantors has or can claim for itself or its assets, properties or revenues any immunity (on the grounds of sovereignty or crown status or otherwise) from any action, suit, proceeding or other legal process (including, without limitation, arbitration proceedings), from set-off or counterclaim, from the jurisdiction of any court, from service of process, from attachment to or in aid of execution of any judgment, decision, determination, order or award including, without limitation, any arbitral award, or from other action, suit or proceeding for the giving of any relief or for the enforcement of any judgement, decision, determination, order or award including any arbitral award or to the extent that in any such proceedings there may be attributed to itself or its assets, properties or revenues any such immunity (whether or not claimed), the Company and the Warrantors hereby irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim any such immunity in relation to any such proceedings.

17 GENERAL PROVISIONS
