THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE (THE “SECURITIES”) MAY NOT BE EXCHANGEABLE IN WHOLE OR IN PART FOR A SECURITY REGISTERED, AND NO TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES IN WHOLE OR IN PART MAY BE REGISTERED, IN THE NAME OF ANY PERSON OTHER THAN THE COMMON DEPOSITARY OR A NOMINEE THEREOF, EXCEPT IN THE LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE INDENTURE.”

Global Certificates may be deposited with such other Depositary that is a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act as the Company may from time to time designate in writing to the Trustee and the Agents, and shall bear such legend as may be appropriate.

(e) If at any time the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for such Global Certificates or if at any time the Depositary shall no longer be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, the Company shall appoint a successor depositary with respect to such Global Certificates. If (i) a successor depositary for such Global Certificates is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, or (ii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Securities and any Holder so requests, the Company will execute, and the Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, as applicable, upon receipt of an Officer’s Certificate of the Company directing the authentication and delivery thereof, will authenticate and deliver, Certificated Securities in any Authorized Denomination in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Certificates in exchange for such Global Certificates.

(f) Global Certificates shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as Certificated Securities authenticated and delivered hereunder.

(g) The Person in whose name any Certificate is registered at the close of business on any Distribution Record Date with respect to any Distribution Payment Date shall be entitled to receive the Distribution (including any Arrears of Distribution and any Additional Distribution Amount), if any, payable on such Distribution Payment Date notwithstanding any transfer or exchange of such Certificate subsequent to the Distribution Record Date and prior to such Distribution Payment Date.

Section 2.05. Distribution. (a) Accrual of Distribution. Subject to ‎Section 2.05(d), the Securities confer a right to receive distributions (“Distribution”) from, and including the Reference Date at the applicable Distribution Rate in accordance with this ‎Section 2.05. Subject to ‎Section 2.05(d), Distribution shall be payable semi-annually in arrears on each Distribution Payment Date, except that the first payment of Distribution shall be deemed to have been made on April 1, 2017 in respect of the period from (and including) the Reference Date to (but excluding) April 1, 2017. Such deemed Distribution payment shall be deemed to have been deferred under ‎Section 2.05(d)(i)‎ and

the Company shall not have any obligation to provide any notice or certificate under ‎Section 2.05(d) with respect to such deemed Distribution.

Unless otherwise provided for in this Indenture, each Security will cease to confer the right to receive any Distribution from the due date for redemption of such Security unless, upon due presentation, payment of the full amount due is improperly withheld or refused. In such latter event, Distribution will continue to accrue at the applicable Distribution Rate (after as well as before any judgment) up to but excluding whichever is the earlier of (x) the date on which all sums due in respect of any Security are received by or on behalf of the relevant Holder and (y) the day which is seven days after the Principal Paying Agent or the Trustee has received all sums due in respect of the Securities up to such seventh day (except to the extent that there is a failure in the subsequent payment to the relevant Holders under this Indenture), and after notice of such payment is provided to the Holders.

If a Distribution is required to be paid in respect of a Security on any date other than a Distribution Payment Date, it shall be calculated by the Company by applying the Distribution Rate to the Calculation Amount, multiplying the product by the Day Count Fraction, rounding the resulting figure to the nearest cent (half a cent being rounded upwards) and multiplying such rounded figure by a fraction equal to the Authorized Denomination of such Security divided by the Calculation Amount, where “Calculation Amount” means US$1,000 and “Day Count Fraction” means, in respect of any period, the number of days in the relevant period divided by 360 (the number of days to be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days with twelve 30-day months).

Any Distribution payable under this ‎Section 2.05 will be paid in accordance with ‎Section 4.01.

(b) Rate of Distribution. The rate of distribution (as adjusted in accordance with this ‎Section 2.05(b), the “Distribution Rate”) applicable to the Securities shall be:

(i) subject to ‎Section 2.05(b)(iii)‎, in respect of the period from, and including, the Reference Date to (and until), but excluding, the date that is twelve months after an Expansion Trigger Event (if any) (the “First Reset Date”), zero per cent.;

(ii) subject to ‎Section 2.05(b)(iii),

(A) in respect of the period from, and including, the First Reset Date to, but excluding, the date that is twelve months following the First Reset Date, five per cent.;

(B) in respect of each twelve month period thereafter, the lower of (x) 15 per cent. and (y) a rate that is equal to the Distribution Rate of the prior twelve month period plus one per cent.; and

(iii) if the New Senior Notes are fully repaid or redeemed pursuant to their terms (other than in connection with a restructuring of the New Senior Notes) while the Distribution Rate in effect is less than ten per cent.,

(A) in respect of the period from, and including, the next Distribution Payment Date occurring after such repayment or redemption of the New Senior Notes (or, if such repayment or redemption of the New Senior Notes occurs on or after the date which is two Business Days prior to such next Distribution Payment Date, the next following Distribution Payment Date) to, but excluding, the date that is twelve months after such Distribution Payment Date, ten per cent.; and

(B) in respect of each twelve month period thereafter, the lower of (x) 15 per cent. and (y) a rate that is equal to the Distribution Rate of the prior twelve month period plus one per cent.

(c) Calculation of Distribution Rate. On the Business Day prior to each Distribution Payment Date, the Company will, in good faith and as evidenced by a Board Resolution, calculate the applicable Distribution Rate payable in respect of the Securities for the period following such Distribution Payment Date. The Company will cause the applicable Distribution Rate determined by it to be notified in writing in the form of an Officer’s Certificate to the Principal Paying Agent, the Trustee, the Holders and each listing authority, stock exchange and/or quotation system (if any) on or by which the Securities have then been admitted to listing, trading and/or quotation as soon as practicable after the relevant Distribution Payment Date. All notifications, opinions, determinations, certificates, calculations, quotations and decisions given, expressed, made or obtained for the purposes of this ‎Section 2.05(c)‎‎ by the Company will (in the absence of fraud, bad faith or manifest error) be binding on the Principal Paying Agent, the Trustee and the Holders. Neither the Trustee nor the Agents shall be responsible for calculating or verifying the Distribution Rate.

(d) Distribution Deferral.

(i) Optional Deferral: The Company may, at its sole discretion, elect to defer, in whole or in part, any Distribution (including any Arrears of Distribution and any Additional Distribution Amount) which is otherwise scheduled to be paid on a Distribution Payment Date to the immediately following Distribution Payment Date by giving notice (an “Optional Distribution Deferral Notice”), substantially in the form as set forth in Exhibit E, to the Holders and the Trustee not more than 15 nor less than 10 Business Days prior to a scheduled Distribution Payment Date (an “Optional Deferral Event”) and it shall be conclusive and binding on the Holders.

(ii) No obligation to pay validly deferred Distribution (including any Arrears of Distribution and any Additional Distribution Amount): The Company shall have no obligation to pay any Distribution (including any Arrears of Distribution and any Additional Distribution Amount) on any Distribution

Payment Date if it validly elects not to do so in accordance with ‎Section 2.05(d)(i)‎ and any failure to pay any Distribution (including any Arrears of Distribution and any Additional Distribution Amount) shall not constitute a default for any purpose (including, without limitation, an Event of Default pursuant to ‎Section 5.02) of the Company in respect of this Indenture and the Securities.

(iii) Requirements as to Notice: On the date of publication of any Optional Distribution Deferral Notice, the Company shall deliver to each of the Trustee and the Principal Paying Agent an Officer’s Certificate of the Company confirming that an Optional Deferral Event has occurred. The Trustee and the Principal Paying Agent shall be entitled to accept and rely upon such certificate (without further investigation or enquiry).

(iv) Cumulative Deferral:

(A) The amount of any Distribution deferred pursuant to this ‎Section 2.05(d) shall constitute “Arrears of Distribution.” The Company may, at its sole discretion, elect to further defer any Arrears of Distribution by complying with the notice requirements in this ‎Section 2.05(d) applicable to any deferral of any Distribution. The Company is not subject to any limit as to the number of times any Distribution and/or Arrears of Distribution (including any Additional Distribution Amount) may be deferred pursuant to this ‎Section 2.05(d) except that this ‎Section 2.05(d)(iv)‎ shall be complied with until all outstanding Arrears of Distribution have been paid in full.

(B) Each amount of Arrears of Distribution shall bear Distribution at the Distribution Rate as if it constituted the principal of the Securities and the amount of such Distribution (the “Additional Distribution Amount”) with respect to Arrears of Distribution shall be due and payable pursuant to this ‎Section 2.05 and shall be calculated by applying the Distribution Rate to the amount of the Arrears of Distribution and otherwise mutatis mutandis as provided in the foregoing provisions of this ‎Section 2.05. The Additional Distribution Amount accrued up to any Distribution Payment Date shall be added, for the purpose of calculating the Additional Distribution Amount accruing thereafter, to the amount of Arrears of Distribution remaining unpaid on such Distribution Payment Date so that such Additional Distribution Amount will itself become Arrears of Distribution.

(v) Satisfaction of Arrears of Distribution by payment: The Company may, at its option, pay and discharge any Arrears of Distribution (in whole or in part) at any time by giving notice of such election to the Holders, the Trustee and the Principal Paying Agent not more than 15 nor less than 10 Business Days prior to the relevant Payment Date specified in such notice (which notice shall be irrevocable and shall oblige the Company to pay the relevant Arrears of Distribution on the Payment Date specified in such notice (such date the “Arrears

of Distribution Discharge Date”)). Distribution will continue to accrue on such portion of Arrears of Distribution to be paid and discharged up to, but excluding, the Arrears of Distribution Discharge Date, in accordance with this ‎Section 2.05. Any partial payment of outstanding Arrears of Distribution by the Company shall be paid to the Holders of all outstanding Securities on a pro-rata basis.

(vi) No default: Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the deferral of any Distribution payment in accordance with this ‎Section 2.05(d) shall not constitute a default for any purpose (including, without limitation, an Event of Default pursuant to ‎Section 5.02) of the Company in respect of this Indenture and the Securities.

Section 2.06. Registration, Transfer and Exchange. The Securities are issuable only in registered form. The Company will keep at the office or agency to be maintained for the purpose as provided in ‎Section 4.02 (the “Registrar”), a register (the “Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, it will register, and will register the transfer of, Securities as provided in this ‎Article 2. The name and address of the registered holder of each Certificate and the amount of Securities represented by each Certificate, and all transfers and exchanges related thereto, will be recorded in the Register. Such Register shall be in written form in the English language or in any other form capable of being converted into such form within a reasonable time. Such Register shall be available to the Trustee upon reasonable prior written notice on business days in the location of the Registrar. Upon due presentation for registration of transfer of any Certificate, the Company shall execute and the Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, as applicable, shall authenticate and deliver in the name of the transferee or transferees a new Certificate or Certificates in Authorized Denominations for a like aggregate principal amount.

A Holder may register the transfer of a Security only by written application to the Registrar stating the name of the proposed transferee and otherwise complying with the terms of this Indenture. No such registration of transfer shall be effected until, and such transferee shall succeed to the rights of a Holder only upon, final acceptance and registration of the transfer by the Registrar in the Register. Prior to the registration of any transfer by a Holder as provided herein, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of any of them shall treat the Person in whose name the Security is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes, and neither the Company, the Trustee, nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. Furthermore, any Holder of a Global Certificate shall, by acceptance of such Global Certificate, agree that transfers of beneficial interests in the Securities represented by such Global Certificate may be effected only through a book-entry system maintained by the Holder of such Global Certificate (or its agent) and that ownership of a beneficial interest in the Securities shall be required to be reflected in a book entry. At the option of the Holder, Certificates may be exchanged for other Certificates of any Authorized Denomination and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Certificates to be exchanged to the Registrar. When Certificates are presented to the Registrar with a request to register the transfer or to exchange them for Certificates of other Authorized Denominations representing an equal aggregate principal amount of Securities, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as

requested if the requirements for such transactions set forth herein are met. To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, as applicable, shall authenticate Certificates at the Company’s request.

Every Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Registrar) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing in a form satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar.

The Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or other similar governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any exchange or registration of transfer of Certificate (other than any such transfer taxes or other similar governmental charge payable upon exchanges). No service charge to any Holder shall be made for any such transaction.

The Company shall not be required to exchange or register a transfer of (1) any Certificate for a period of 15 days next preceding the first mailing of notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed or (2) any Certificate representing Securities called or being called for redemption.

All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates shall be valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities represented by the Certificates surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

Section 2.07. Prescription. Claims against the Company for the payment of principal, if any, or Distribution (including any Arrears of Distribution and any Additional Distribution Amount), on the Securities will become void unless presentation for payment is made as required in this Indenture within a period of six years.

Section 2.08. Book-entry Provisions for Global Certificates. (a) Ownership of beneficial interests in the Global Certificates (the “book-entry interests”) will be limited to persons that have accounts with Euroclear and/or Clearstream or persons that may hold interests through such participants. Book-entry interests will be shown on, and transfers thereof will be effected only through, records maintained in book-entry form by Euroclear and Clearstream and their participants.

(b) Except as provided in ‎‎Section 2.04(e), the book-entry interests will not be held in definitive form. Instead, Euroclear and/or Clearstream will credit on their respective book-entry registration and transfer systems a participant’s account with the interest beneficially owned by such participant. The laws of some jurisdictions may require that certain purchasers of securities take physical delivery of such securities in definitive form. The foregoing limitations may impair the ability to own, transfer or pledge book-entry interests.

Section 2.09. Mutilated, Defaced, Destroyed, Stolen and Lost Certificates. (a) The Company shall execute and deliver to the Registrar Certificated Securities in such amounts and at such times as to enable the Registrar to fulfill its responsibilities under this Indenture and the Securities.

(b) In case any Certificate shall become mutilated, defaced or be apparently destroyed, lost or stolen, upon the request of the registered holder thereof, the Company in its discretion may execute, and, upon the written request of Authorized Officers of the Company, the Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, as applicable, shall authenticate and deliver, a new Certificate, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the mutilated or defaced Certificate, or in lieu of and substitution for the Certificate so apparently destroyed, lost or stolen. In every case the applicant for a substitute Certificate shall furnish to the Company and the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee such security and/or indemnity as may be required by each of them to indemnify and defend and to save each of them harmless and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft evidence to their satisfaction of the apparent destruction, loss or theft of such Certificate and of the ownership thereof. Upon the issuance of any substitute Certificate, such Holder, if so requested by the Company will pay a sum sufficient to cover any stamp duty, tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected with the preparation and issuance of the substitute Certificate. The Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, as applicable, is hereby authorized, in accordance with and subject to the foregoing conditions in this clause ‎(b), to authenticate and deliver from time to time, Certificates in exchange for or in lieu of Certificates, which become mutilated, defaced, destroyed, stolen or lost. Each Certificate delivered in exchange for or in lieu of any Certificate shall carry all the rights to receive Distribution (including any Arrears of Distribution and any Additional Distribution Amount), which were carried by such Certificate.

(c) All Certificates surrendered for payment or exchange shall be delivered to the Registrar. The Registrar shall cancel and dispose of all such Certificates surrendered for payment or exchange, in accordance with its customary procedures.

(d) In the event any such mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Certificate, pay the Securities represented by such Certificate.

Section 2.10. Cancellation of Certificates; Disposition Thereof. All Certificates surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange, if surrendered to the Company or any agent of the Company or the Trustee, shall be delivered to the Registrar for cancellation or, if surrendered to the Registrar, shall be canceled by it; and no Certificate shall be issued in lieu thereof except as expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this Indenture. The Registrar shall dispose of canceled Certificates held by it in accordance with its customary procedures, and upon receipt of a prior written request from the Company, deliver a certificate of disposition to the Company. If any Securities shall be redeemed or purchased by or otherwise held on behalf of the Company and/or

any of its Subsidiaries, such Securities shall be cancelled, may not be reissued, resold or pledged and shall not be considered outstanding for voting purposes under this Indenture.

Section 2.11. ISIN or Common Code Numbers. The Company in issuing the Securities may use “ISIN” or “Common Code” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee and the Agents shall use for the Securities such “ISIN” or “Common Code” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Certificates or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Certificates, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee and the Agents in writing of any change in the “ISIN” or “Common Code” numbers.

Article 3
Redemption

Section 3.01. No Fixed Redemption Date. The Securities are perpetual securities in respect of which there is no fixed redemption date and the Company shall (without prejudice to ‎Article 5) only have the right to redeem or purchase the Securities in accordance with the following provisions of this ‎Article 3.

Section 3.02. Redemption at the Option of the Company. The Securities may be redeemed at the option of the Company in whole or in part on any Distribution Payment Date (each, a “Call Settlement Date”) on the Company giving not less than 30 days’ nor more than 60 days’ notice to the Holders (which notice shall be irrevocable and shall oblige the Company to redeem the Securities on the relevant Call Settlement Date) at the Redemption Amount. If fewer than all of the Securities are to be redeemed, the Securities shall be selected for redemption on a pro rata basis and, if represented by a Global Certificate, in accordance with the procedures or Euroclear and Clearstream.

Section 3.03. No Other Redemption. The Company shall not be entitled to redeem the Securities and shall have no obligation to make any payment of principal in respect of the Securities otherwise than as provided in ‎Section 3.02 and ‎Article 5.

Section 3.04. Purchase. The Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries may, at any time, purchase Securities in the open market or otherwise and at any price, in each case subject to applicable law, provided that (i) no such purchases in cash may be made from an Affiliate or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and (ii) the details, including amount purchased and purchase price, of any such purchases must be publicly disclosed and verified by the Company’s auditor.

Article 4
Covenants

In each case the Company shall promptly notify the Trustee and the Principal Paying Agent of its compliance with this paragraph. Neither the Trustee nor the Principal Paying Agent shall be bound to make any payment until it has received the full amount in immediately available and cleared funds due to be paid to it pursuant to this ‎‎Section 4.01.

(c) The Company shall procure that by 10:00 a.m. (Hong Kong time) on the second Business Day prior to each Payment Date the bank through which such payment is to be made will send to the Principal Paying Agent confirmation that it has received from the Company an irrevocable instruction to make the relevant payment (by facsimile transmission or SWIFT).

(d) An installment of principal, Distribution, Arrears of Distribution, Additional Distribution Amount, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, or a combination of the foregoing, as the case may be, will be considered paid on the date due if the Principal Paying Agent holds on that date money designated for and sufficient to pay the installment. If the Securities are Certificated Securities and the Company or any Affiliate of the Company acts as paying agent, an installment of principal of, Distribution, Arrears of Distribution, Additional Distribution Amount, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, or a combination of the foregoing, as the case may be, will be considered paid on the due date only if paid to the Holders.

(e) The Trustee or the Principal Paying Agent will make payments in respect of the Securities represented by the Global Certificates by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Holders of the Global Certificates. With respect to Certificated Securities, the Principal Paying Agent will make all payments by wire transfer of immediately available and cleared funds to the accounts specified by the Holders thereof or, if no such account is specified, the Company may make payments by mailing a check to each Holder’s registered address or such other addresses as notified by

the Holder; provided that if the Company or any Affiliate of the Company is acting as paying agent, it shall make such payment to the Holders as in this ‎Section 4.01(e).

(f) Each payment in respect of a Security will be made to the person shown as the Holder in the Register at the close of business on the Distribution Record Date with respect to any Distribution Payment Date. Where payment in respect of a Security is to be made by check, the check will be mailed to the address shown as the address of the Holder in the Register at the close of business on the relevant Distribution Record Date.

(g) At least 30 days prior to the first Payment Date and, if there has been any change with respect to the matters set forth in the below-mentioned certificate, at least 30 days prior to each Payment Date thereafter, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate instructing the Trustee and the Agents as to any circumstances in which payments of principal of, or Distribution, Arrears of Distribution or Additional Distribution Amount on, the Securities due on such date shall be subject to deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any Taxes described in ‎Section 4.05 and the rate of any such deduction or withholding. If any such deduction or withholding shall be required and if the Company therefore becomes liable to pay any Additional Amounts pursuant to ‎Section 4.05 then at least 30 days prior to each Payment Date, the Company shall furnish the Trustee and the Agents with a certificate which specifies the amount required to be withheld on such payment to Holders of the Securities, and any Additional Amounts due to the Holders of the Securities, and at least one Business Day prior to such Payment Date, will pay to the Principal Paying Agent such any Additional Amounts as shall be required to be paid to such Holders.

(h) Whenever the Company appoints a Principal Paying Agent other than the Trustee for the purpose of paying amounts due in respect of the Securities, it will cause such Principal Paying Agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument substantially in the form as set forth in Exhibit C hereto or as the parties agreed otherwise in which such agent shall agree with the Company, among other things, to be bound by and observe the provisions of this Indenture (including the Securities). The Company shall cause each Principal Paying Agent other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Principal Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee,

(i) that it will hold all sums received by it as such Principal Paying Agent for the payment of the principal of, or Distribution, Arrears of Distribution, Additional Distribution Amount and/or Additional Amounts, if any, on, the Securities (whether such sums have been paid to it by or on behalf of the Company) in trust for the benefit of the Holders or of the Trustee;

(ii) that it will give the Trustee written notice of any failure by the Company to make any payment of the principal of, or Distribution, Arrears of Distribution, Additional Distribution Amount or Additional Amounts, if any, on, the Securities and any other payments to be made by or on behalf of the Company under this Indenture, when the same shall be due and payable; and

(iii) that it will pay any such sums so held in trust by it to the Trustee upon the Trustee’s written request at any time during the continuance of a failure referred to in clause ‎(ii) above.

Anything in this ‎Section 4.01 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other reason, pay or cause to be paid to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or any Principal Paying Agent hereunder, as required by this ‎Section 4.01 and such sums shall be held by the Trustee upon the trusts herein contained. If the Principal Paying Agent shall pay all sums held in trust to the Trustee as required under this ‎Section 4.01, the Principal Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money so paid over to the Trustee.

Anything in this ‎Section 4.01 to the contrary notwithstanding, the agreements to hold sums in trust as provided in this ‎Section 4.01 are subject to the provisions of ‎Section 7.04.

Section 4.02. Maintenance of Office or Agency. (a) The Company will maintain an office or agency where Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange or for presentation for payment and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities and this Indenture may be served. The Company hereby initially designates the office of the Principal Paying Agent at Xxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx X00 0XX, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, as such office of the Company. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company fails to maintain any such required office or agency or fails to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served to the Trustee.

(b) The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Certificates may be surrendered or presented for any of such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in each place where principal of, and Distribution (including any Arrears of Distribution and Additional Distribution Amount) on, any Securities are payable. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

(c) The Company will give to the Trustee written notice of the location of any such office or agency and of any change of location thereof. The Company has initially appointed The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch as the Principal Paying Agent and The Bank of New York Xxxxxx XX/NV, Luxembourg Branch as the Transfer Agent and the Registrar.

(d) The Securities will initially be listed on the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited. So long as any of the Securities remain outstanding, the Securities shall be listed on a Qualified Stock Exchange.

Section 4.03. Corporate Existence. The Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence and that of each Subsidiary and the corporate rights (charter and statutory), corporate licenses and corporate franchises of the Company and each Subsidiary, except where a failure to do so, singly or in the aggregate, would not have a material adverse effect upon the business, prospects, assets, conditions (financial or otherwise) or results of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole or the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under the Securities; provided that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such existence, right, license or franchise if the Board of Directors, shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company or such Subsidiary and that the loss thereof would not have a material adverse impact on the holders of the Securities or the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under the Securities.

Section 4.04. Restrictions on Dividends and Distributions. So long as the Securities are outstanding, the Company shall (A) not declare or pay any dividend or make any distribution on or with respect to its Capital Stock or (except on a pro rata basis with the Securities) its Parity Securities (other than dividends or distributions payable solely in shares of the Company’s Capital Stock or in options, warrants or other rights to acquire shares of such Capital Stock) or (B) redeem, reduce, cancel, buy-back or acquire for any consideration any of its Capital Stock or (except on a pro rata basis with the Securities) its Parity Securities.

Section 4.05. Additional Amounts. (a) All payments of principal of and Distribution, Arrears of Distribution and/or Additional Distribution Amount on the Securities will be made without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied by Mongolia or within any jurisdiction in which the Company is organized or resident for tax purposes or any jurisdiction in which the Company is found to have a permanent establishment for tax purposes or any jurisdiction from or through which payment is made (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) (each, as applicable, a “Relevant Jurisdiction”), unless such withholding or deduction is required by law or by regulation or governmental policy having the force of law. In the event that any such withholding or deduction is so required, the Company will pay such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as will result in receipt by the Holder of each Security of such amounts payable under the Securities as would have been received by such Holder had no such withholding or deduction been required, except that no Additional Amounts shall be payable:

(i) for or on account of:

(A) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for:

(1) the existence of any present or former connection between the Holder or beneficial owner of such Security and the Relevant Jurisdiction other than merely holding such Security or the receipt of payments thereunder or the enforcement of rights thereunder, as the case may be, including, without limitation, such Holder or beneficial owner being or having been a national, domiciliary or resident of such Relevant Jurisdiction or treated as a resident thereof or being or having been physically present or engaged in a trade or business therein or having or having had a permanent establishment therein;

(2) the presentation of such Certificate (in cases in which presentation is required) for payment in the Relevant Jurisdiction, unless such Security could not have been presented for payment elsewhere;

(4) the surrender (in the case of a payment of principal, Distribution, Arrears of Distribution or Additional Distribution Amount on redemption) of the relevant Certificate for payment more than 30 days after the Relevant Date except to the extent that the relevant Holder would have been entitled to such Additional Amounts if it had surrendered the relevant Certificate on the last day of such period of 30 days;

(B) any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge; or

(C) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge which is payable other than by deduction or withholding from payments of principal of, or Distribution, Arrears of Distribution and/or Additional Distribution Amount, on the Securities; or

(D) any taxes imposed pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code or future U.S. Treasury Regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder (“FATCA”), any intergovernmental agreement between the United States and any other jurisdiction to implement FATCA, any law, regulation or other official guidance enacted or published in any jurisdiction implementing FATCA or an intergovernmental agreement with respect thereto, or any agreement with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service under FATCA; or

(E) any combination of taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges referred to in the preceding clauses ‎(A), ‎(B), ‎(C), or ‎(D); or

(ii) to a Holder that is a fiduciary, partnership or person other than the sole beneficial owner of any payment, to the extent that such payment would be required to be included for tax purposes in the income under the laws of a Relevant Jurisdiction of a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, or a member of that partnership or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to such Additional Amounts had that beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the Holder thereof.

(b) In this ‎Section 4.05, “Relevant Date” means whichever is the later of (1) the date on which the payment in question first becomes due and (2) if the full amount payable has not been received by the Principal Paying Agent or the Trustee on or prior to such due date, the date on which the full amount having been so received and notice to that effect has been given to the Holders.

Article 5
Non-Payment

Section 5.01. Limited Rights to Institute Proceedings. Notwithstanding any of the provisions below in this ‎Article 5, the right to institute Winding-Up proceedings is limited to circumstances where an Event of Default has occurred. In the case of any Distribution (including any Arrears of Distribution and any Additional Distribution Amount), such Distribution (including any Arrears of Distribution and any Additional Distribution Amount) will not be due if the Company has elected to defer that Distribution (including any Arrears of Distribution and any Additional Distribution Amount) in accordance with ‎Section 2.05(d). In addition, nothing in this ‎Article 5, including any restriction on commencing proceedings, shall in any way restrict or limit any rights of the Trustee to claim from or to otherwise take any action against the Company, in respect of any costs, charges, fees, expenses or liabilities incurred by such party pursuant to or in connection with the Indenture or the Securities.

Section 5.02. Proceedings for Winding-up. Upon (i) an order being made or an effective resolution being passed for the Winding-Up of the Company, (ii) the sale of the Company’s business as part of a scheme procedure, except a solvent sale solely for the purposes of a reorganization, reconstruction, merger or amalgamation the terms of which have previously been approved by an Extraordinary Resolution or (iii) the Company failing to make payment in respect of the Securities for a period of 15 Business Days or more after the date on which such payment is due, the Company shall be deemed to be in default under the Indenture and the Securities (each, an “Event of Default”); provided that any failure to pay any Distribution (including any Arrears of Distribution, any Additional Distribution Amount accrued and any Additional Amounts) deferred in accordance with ‎Section 2.05(d) shall not constitute an Event of Default. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default that is continuing, the Trustee may, subject to the provisions of ‎Section 5.04, institute proceedings for the Winding-Up of the Company and/or prove and/or claim in the Winding-Up of the Company for the principal amount of the Securities together with any Distribution, any Arrears of Distribution and any Additional Distribution Amount accrued and any Additional Amounts (if any) to the day prior to the commencement of the Winding-Up.

Section 5.03. Enforcement. Without prejudice to ‎Section 5.02 but subject to the provisions of ‎Section 5.04, the Trustee may without further notice to the Company institute such proceedings against the Company as it may think fit to enforce any term or condition binding on the Company under the Indenture or the Securities (other than any payment obligation of the Company under or arising from the Securities or the Indenture, including, without limitation, payment of any principal or satisfaction of any Distribution (including any Arrears of Distribution and any Additional Distribution Amount) in respect of the Securities, including any damages awarded for breach of any obligations), provided that in no event shall the Company, by virtue of the institution of any such proceedings, be obliged to pay any sum or sums, in cash or otherwise, sooner than the same would otherwise have been payable by it.

Section 5.04. Entitlement of Trustee. The Trustee at its sole discretion may, and if so requested in writing by Holders of at least 33 1/3 per cent. in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding or if so directed by an Extraordinary Resolution shall, take any of the actions referred to in ‎Section 5.02 or ‎Section 5.03 against the Company to enforce the terms of the Indenture or the Securities subject in any such case to the Trustee having been indemnified and/or secured and/or pre-funded to its satisfaction.

Section 5.05. Right of Holders. No Holder shall be entitled to proceed directly against the Company or to institute proceedings for the Winding-Up of the Company or to prove or claim in such Winding-Up unless the Trustee, having become so bound to proceed or being able to prove or claim in such Winding-Up, fails to do so within a reasonable period and such failure shall be continuing, in which case the Holder shall have only such rights against the Company as those which the Trustee is entitled to exercise as set out in this ‎Article 5.

Section 5.06. Extent of Holders’ Remedy. No remedy against the Company, other than as referred to in this ‎Article 5, shall be available to the Trustee or the Holders, whether for the recovery of amounts owing in respect of the Securities under the Indenture or in respect of any breach by the Company of any of its other obligations under or in respect of the Securities under the Indenture.

Section 5.07. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy conferred or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders under this Indenture is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and all such rights and remedies are, to the extent permitted by law, cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or exercise of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, will not prevent the concurrent assertion or exercise of any other right or remedy.

Section 5.08. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default will impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this ‎Article 5 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

Section 5.09. Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws. The Company covenants, to the extent that it may lawfully do so, that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any usury law or other law that would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of, or Distribution on the Securities as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture. The Company hereby expressly waives, to the extent that it may lawfully do so, all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the

execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

Section 5.10. No Duty of Trustee and Agents to Ascertain Default. The Trustee and the Agents are not obligated to monitor or ascertain whether any Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, or that the Company is not performing all of its obligations, and will not be responsible to Holders or any other person for any loss arising from any failure by it to do so. The Trustee and the Agents may assume that no such event has occurred (except when (i) there is a default in payment of principal of, or Distribution (including any Arrears of Distribution and any Additional Distribution Amount due on an Arrears of Distribution Discharge Date or Call Settlement Date) on, any Securities, and (ii) in the case of the Trustee, the Trustee or its Affiliate is acting as the paying agent; provided that (x) the Company has provided an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the Distribution Rate to the Trustee and the Principal Paying Agent in accordance with ‎Section 2.05(c) and (y) no Optional Distribution Deferral Notice has been provided by the Company to the Holders and the Trustee pursuant to ‎Section 2.05(d)) and that the Company is performing all of its obligations under this Indenture and the Securities unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or the relevant Agent, as the case may be, has received written notice of the occurrence of such event or facts establishing that an Event of Default has occurred or that the Company is not performing all of its obligations under this Indenture and/or the Securities.

Article 6
The Trustee

Section 6.01. General. (a) The duties and responsibilities of the Trustee are as provided by the Trust Indenture Act and as set forth herein. Whether or not expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee is subject to this ‎Article 6.

(b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations will be read into this Indenture against the Trustee or the Agents. In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise those rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

(c) Should the Trustee become a creditor of the Company, the Trustee shall comply with Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act, excluding any creditor relationship listed in Section 311(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. The Trustee is permitted to engage in other transactions with the Company and its Affiliates and profit therefrom without being obliged to account for such profits, subject to Section 311 of the Trust Indenture Act. The Company hereby irrevocably waives, in favor of the Trustee, any conflict of interest which may arise by virtue of the Trustee acting in various capacities under this Indenture or for other customers of the Trustee to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act. The Company acknowledges that the Trustee and its Affiliates may

have interests in, or may be providing or may in the future provide financial or other services to other parties with interests which the Company may regard as conflicting with its interests and may possess information (whether or not material to the Company) other than as a result of the Trustee acting as trustee hereunder, that the Trustee may not be entitled to share with the Company. Subject to ‎Section 6.02(n), the Trustee will not disclose confidential information obtained from the Company without its consent to any of the Trustee’s other customers nor will it use on the Company’s behalf any confidential information obtained from any other customer. The foregoing shall not apply to any information that is publicly available or to any sharing of information at the Trustee and its Affiliates or with respect to disclosures made pursuant to any applicable law, regulation or auditor requests. Without prejudice to the foregoing, the Company agrees that the Trustee may deal (whether for its own or its customers’ account) in, or advise on, securities of any party and that such dealing or giving of advice, will not constitute a conflict of interest for the purposes of this Indenture.

(d) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to ‎Section 5.04.

(e) The Trustee shall not be responsible for the recitals, statements, warranties or representations of any party contained in this Indenture or any other agreement or other document entered into in connection herewith or therewith and shall assume the accuracy and correctness thereof and shall not be responsible for the execution, legality, effectiveness, adequacy, genuineness, validity, enforceability or admissibility in evidence of any such agreement or other document or any trust or security thereby constituted or evidenced. Each Holder shall be solely responsible for making its own independent appraisal of, and investigation into, the financial condition, creditworthiness, condition, affairs, status and nature of the Company, and the Trustee shall not at any time have any responsibility for the same and each Holder shall not rely on the Trustee in respect thereof.

(f) The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to supervise, monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any of the provisions in this Indenture or the financial performance of the Company, and shall be entitled to assume that the Company is in compliance with all the provisions of this Indenture (except when (i) there is a default in payment of principal of or Distribution (including any Arrears of Distribution and any Additional Distribution Amount due on an Arrears of Distribution Discharge Date or Call Settlement Date) on any Securities, and (ii) in the case of the Trustee, the Trustee or its Affiliate is acting as the paying agent; provided that (x) the Company has provided an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the Distribution Rate to the Trustee and the Principal Paying Agent in accordance with ‎Section 2.05(c) and (y) no Optional Distribution Deferral Notice has been provided by the Company to the Holders and the Trustee pursuant to ‎Section 2.05(d)), including each of the exhibits attached hereto, unless notified to the contrary in writing.

(g) The Trustee will not be liable for any error in judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee unless the Trustee is negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.

Section 6.02. Certain Rights of Trustee. Subject to Sections 315(a) through (d) of the Trust Indenture Act:

(a) In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may request and conclusively rely, and will be protected in acting or refraining from acting, upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document (whether in original or facsimile form) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document, but, in the case of any document which is specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee pursuant to any provision hereof, the Trustee shall examine the document to determine whether it conforms to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein). The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, make further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it sees fit, and shall do so if requested in writing to do so by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding and subject to receiving indemnity and/or security and/or pre-funding to its satisfaction.

(b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel conforming to ‎Section 9.05 and ‎Section 9.06 and the Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on the certificate or opinion.

(d) The Trustee may delegate duties to, and may appoint and act through, its attorneys, delegates and agents and will not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence or for the acts or omissions of any attorney, delegate or agent or for monitoring or supervising any attorney, delegate or agent appointed with due care by it hereunder. To the extent an agent has been named by the Trustee in connection with this Indenture, the parties hereto shall cooperate to ensure that such agent can perform the duties for which it was appointed.

(e) The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction in writing of any of the Holders, unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity and/or security and/or pre-funding to its satisfaction against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

(f) The Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers or for any action it

takes or omits to take in accordance with the direction of the Holders in accordance with ‎Section 5.04 relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture.

(g) The Trustee may consult with counsel or other professional advisors of its selection, and the advice of such counsel or advisors or any Opinion of Counsel will be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon.

(h) No provision of this Indenture will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of its rights or powers, unless it receives indemnity and/or security and/or pre-funding to its satisfaction against any loss, liability or expense.

(i) The Trustee may request that the Company deliver an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officer’s Certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign an Officer’s Certificate.

(j) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit, business, goodwill or opportunity), whether or not foreseeable and irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. The provisions of this ‎Section 6.02(j) shall survive the termination or expiry of this Indenture, repayment of the Securities or resignation or removal of the Trustee.

(k) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, all Agents will be required to act on the Trustee’s direction.

(l) The Trustee shall not be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Indenture or any other transaction document because of circumstances beyond the Trustee’s control, including, without limitation, acts of God, flood, war (whether declared or undeclared), terrorism, fire, riot, rebellion, embargo, civil commotion or the like which restrict or prohibit the performance of the obligations contemplated by this Indenture or any other transaction document (as the case may be), and other causes beyond the Trustee’s control whether or not of the same class or kind as specifically named above.

(m) The Trustee is not obliged to do or omit to do anything which in its reasonable opinion, would or may be illegal or would constitute a breach of any law, rule, regulation, or any decree, order or judgment of any court, or practice, request, direction, notice, announcement or similar action (whether or not having the force of law) of any relevant government, government agency, regulatory authority, stock exchange or self-regulatory organization to which the Trustee is subject.

(n) Neither the Trustee nor any Agent shall have any obligation to calculate, determine or verify the Distribution Rate payable to Holders. Each of the Trustee and the Agents shall be entitled to rely without responsibility and without incurring any liability to Holders or to any person for relying upon the Company’s calculations and determinations which are notified to it in writing.

(o) The permissive rights of the Trustee enumerated herein shall not be construed as duties unless so specified herein.

(p) The Trustee’s immunities and protections from liability and its rights to compensation and indemnification in connection with the performance of its duties under this Indenture and the Securities shall extend to the Agents and to the Trustee’s and Agents’ officers, directors, agents, custodians, employees and any other Person employed to act hereunder. Such immunities and protections and right to indemnification, together with the Trustee’s right to compensation, shall survive the termination or discharge of this Indenture, the Trustee’s resignation or removal and repayment of the Securities.

(q) Each of the Company and the Trustee (for purposes of this ‎‎Section 6.02(q), a “party”) shall, as soon as reasonably practicable but not later than 15 Business Days of a written request by another party, supply to that other party such forms, documentation and other information relating to it, its operations, or the Securities as that other party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other party's compliance with Applicable Law and shall notify the relevant other party reasonably promptly in the event that it becomes aware that any of the forms, documentation or other information provided by such party is (or becomes) inaccurate in any material respect; provided, however, that no party shall be required to provide any forms, documentation or other information pursuant to this ‎Section 6.02(q) to the extent that: (i) any such form, documentation or other information (or the information required to be provided on such form or documentation) is not reasonably available to such party and cannot be obtained by such party using reasonable efforts; or (ii) doing so would or might in the reasonable opinion of such party constitute a breach of any: (a) Applicable Law; (b) fiduciary duty; or (c) duty of confidentiality.

(r) The Company shall notify the Trustee in the event that it determines that any payment to be made by the Trustee under the Securities is a payment which could be subject to FATCA Withholding if such payment were made to a recipient that is generally unable to receive payments free from FATCA Withholding, and the extent to which the relevant payment is so treated, provided, however, that the obligations of the Company under this ‎Section 6.02(r) shall apply only to the extent that such payments are so treated by virtue of characteristics of the Company and/or the Securities.

(s) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to make a deduction or withholding from any payment which it makes under the Securities for or on account of any Tax, if and only to the extent so required by Applicable Law, in which event the Trustee shall make such payment after such deduction or withholding has been made and shall account to the relevant Authority within the time allowed for the amount so deducted or withheld or, at its option, shall

reasonably promptly after making such payment return to the Company the amount so deducted or withheld, in which case, the Company shall so account to the relevant Authority for such amount. The Trustee or the Principal Paying Agent, as the case may be, will inform the Company as soon as reasonably practicable upon becoming aware that it has any such withholding or deduction obligations.

(t) In the event that the Company determines in its sole discretion that withholding for or on account of any Tax will be required by Applicable Law in connection with any payment due to any of the Agents on any Securities, then the Company will be entitled to redirect or reorganize any such payment in any way that it sees fit in order that the payment may be made without such deductions or withholding provided that, any such redirected or reorganized payment is made through a recognized institution of international standing and otherwise made in accordance with this Indenture; provided further that such recognized institution of international standing executes and delivers to the Company an instrument substantially in the form as set forth in Exhibit C hereto or as the parties agree otherwise in which such recognized institution of international standing shall agree with the Company, among other things, to be bound by and observe the provisions of this Indenture and the Securities (including, but not limited to, the agreements contained in ‎Section 4.01(h) hereof) applicable to an Agent (including the Principal Paying Agent). The Company will promptly notify the Trustee of any such redirection or reorganization. The terms of ‎Section 6.02(q) to ‎Section 6.02(t) shall survive the termination of this Indenture, repayment of the Securities and the resignation or removal of the Trustee.

Section 6.03. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee. Any Agent may do the same with like rights. For purposes of Section 311(b)(4) and (6) of the Trust Indenture Act:

(a) “cash transaction” means any transaction in which full payment for goods or securities sold is made within seven days after delivery of the goods or securities in currency or in checks or other orders drawn upon banks or bankers and payable upon demand; and

(b) “self-liquidating paper” means any draft, bill of exchange, acceptance or obligation which is made, drawn, negotiated or incurred for the purpose of financing the purchase, processing, manufacturing, shipment, storage or sale of goods, wares or merchandise and which is secured by documents evidencing title to, possession of, or a lien upon, the goods, wares or merchandise or the receivables or proceeds arising from the sale of the goods, wares or merchandise previously constituting the security, provided that the security is received by the Trustee simultaneously with the creation of the creditor relationship arising from the making, drawing, negotiating or incurring of the draft, bill of exchange, acceptance or obligation.

Section 6.04. Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee (a) makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities, (b) is not accountable for

the Company’s use or application of the proceeds from the Securities, and (c) shall not have any responsibility for the Company’s or any Holder’s compliance with any state or U.S. federal securities law in connection with the Securities.

Section 6.05. Notice of Event of Default. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing and is known to the Trustee, the Trustee will send notice of the Event of Default to each Holder within 90 days after it occurs, or, if later, within 15 days after written notice is provided to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee unless the Event of Default is no longer continuing. Subject to ‎Section 5.10 and ‎Section 6.01(f) above, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any non-compliance with this Indenture or Event of Default unless and until it obtains express written notice of such Event of Default. In the absence of written notice of an Event of Default, the Trustee may assume without any liability in connection with such assumption that there is no Event of Default. Notice to Holders under this ‎Section 6.05 will be given in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 313(c) of the Trust Indenture Act.

Section 6.06. Reports by Trustee to Holders. The Trustee will mail to each Holder, a brief report, if required by Section 313(a) of the Trust Indenture Act, dated as of such July 15 within 60 days after each July 15, beginning with July 15, 2018, and brief reports, if required by Section 313(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, within the times specified therein, and each in a manner as provided in Section 313(c) of the Trust Indenture Act. The Trustee shall also file such reports with each stock exchange, if any, on which the Securities are listed and with the Commission as required by Section 313(d) of the Trust Indenture Act. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of the listing or delisting of the Securities on or from any stock exchange.

Section 6.07. Compensation and Indemnity. (a) The Company will pay the Trustee properly incurred compensation as agreed upon in writing for its services. The compensation of the Trustee is not limited by any law on compensation of a Trustee of an express trust. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing or if the Trustee is requested to undertake duties which are outside the scope of the Trustee’s duties under this Indenture, the Company shall be responsible for and shall pay such additional remuneration as mutually agreed between the Company and the Trustee; provided that failure to agree or pay such additional remuneration shall not affect the Trustee’s duties to the Holders specified herein, including to take such actions as instructed, directed or requested by the Holders (subject to, where applicable, receiving indemnity and/or security and/or pre-funding to its satisfaction). The Company will reimburse the Trustee upon request for all properly incurred out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances (including costs of collection) incurred or made by the Trustee for its services hereunder, including the compensation and properly incurred expenses of the Trustee’s agents, attorneys, delegates and counsel.

(b) The Company, will (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) indemnify the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee and their respective agents, employees, officers and directors for, and hold them harmless against, any loss, damage, claim, including taxes, or liabilities or properly incurred expenses, including legal fees and expenses without gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part arising out of or in

connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture and its duties under this Indenture and the Securities, including the properly incurred costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability and of complying with any process served upon it or any of its officers in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties under this Indenture and the Securities, and the properly incurred compensation, expenses, fees and disbursements of the Trustee’s agents and counsel and other persons not regularly within the Trustee’s employ.

(c) To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this ‎Section 6.07, the Trustee will have a lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee, except money or property held in trust to pay principal of, and interest on particular Securities.

(d) This ‎Section 6.07 shall survive the redemption of the Securities, the termination of this Indenture, and resignation or removal of the Trustee.

(e) All rights, powers, protections, immunities, limitations of liabilities and benefits available to the Trustee under this Indenture shall apply equally to each of the other capacities of The Bank of New York Mellon under this Indenture (as applicable).

(f) All compensation and indemnity payments made by the Company to the Trustee under this Indenture shall be made free and clear of, and without withholding or deduction for or on account of, any Taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of the government of the Relevant Jurisdiction or any political subdivision or any authority or agency therein or thereof having power to tax, or any other jurisdiction in which the Company is organized or is otherwise resident for tax purposes, or any jurisdiction from or through which payment is made. If the Company is so required by law or by regulation or governmental policy having the force of law to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of Taxes imposed by a Relevant Jurisdiction from any payment made under or with respect to such payments to the Trustee, the Company shall pay such additional amounts as may be necessary so that the net amount received by the Trustee (including such additional amounts) after such withholding or deduction will not be less than the amount the Trustee would have received if such Taxes had not been withheld or deducted.

Section 6.08. Replacement of Trustee. (a) The Trustee may resign at any time by written notice to the Company.

(i) The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may remove the Trustee by written notice to the Trustee with the consent of the Company which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(ii) If the Trustee is no longer eligible under ‎Section 6.11 or in the circumstances described in Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, any Holder that satisfies the requirements of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act may

petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(iii) The Company may remove the Trustee if: (A) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent; (B) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or (C) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

Section 8.02. Amendments with Consent of Holders. (a) Modification or abrogation of the Indenture may be made if sanctioned by an Extraordinary Resolution. Such a meeting may be convened by the Company or by the Trustee, and shall be convened by the Trustee upon the request in writing of Holders holding not less than ten per cent. of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities, subject to the Trustee having been indemnified and/or secured and/or pre-funded to its satisfaction.

provided that, proposals to change the quorum requirements relating to meetings or the majority required to pass an Extraordinary Resolution may only be sanctioned by an Extraordinary Resolution passed at a meeting of Holders at which two or more persons

holding or representing not less than 66 2/3 per cent. or, at any adjourned meeting, 25 per cent. of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities shall form a quorum;

provided further that, proposals (including any proposal to change any date fixed for payment of principal or Distribution (including any Arrears of Distribution and any Additional Distribution Amount), for the reduction or cancellation of the amount payable in respect of the Securities or to alter the method of calculating the amount of any payment in respect of the Securities may only be sanctioned with the consent of all the Holders.

(b) It is not necessary for Holders to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but is sufficient if their consent approves the substance thereof.

(c) A resolution in writing signed by or on behalf of Holders of not less than 75 per cent. of the aggregate principal amount of Securities for the time being outstanding and who are entitled to receive notice of a meeting of the Holders of the Securities pursuant to the Indenture will take effect as if it were an Extraordinary Resolution. Such a resolution in writing may be contained in one document or several documents in the same form, each signed by or on behalf of one or more Holders.

(d) In addition, consents given by way of electronic consents through the relevant clearing system(s) (in a form satisfactory to the Trustee) by or on behalf of Holders of not less than 75 per cent. of the aggregate principal amount of Securities for the time being outstanding and who are entitled to receive notice of a meeting of the Holders of the Securities pursuant to the Indenture will take effect as if it were an Extraordinary Resolution.

Holder, or exchange it for a new Certificate that reflects the changed terms. The Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, as applicable, may also place an appropriate notation on any Certificate thereafter authenticated. However, the effectiveness of the amendment, supplement or waiver is not affected by any failure to annotate or exchange Certificates in this fashion.

Section 8.04. Trustee’s Rights and Obligations. The Trustee is entitled to receive, and will be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by ‎Section 9.05, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this ‎Article 8 is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms, and an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent have been complied with.

(d) The Company may, but is not obligated to, fix a record date (which need not be within the time limits otherwise prescribed by Section 316(c) of the Trust Indenture Act) for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to act with respect to any amendment or waiver or in any other regard, except that during the continuance of an Event of Default, only the Trustee may set a record date as to notices of default or any remedies or consequences of the Event of Default. If a record date is fixed, those Persons that were Holders at such record date and only those Persons will be entitled to act, or to revoke any previous act, whether or not those Persons continue to be Holders after the record date.

Copies of any notice or communication to a Holder, if given by the Company, will be mailed to the Trustee at the same time. Defect in mailing a notice or communication to any particular Holder will not affect its sufficiency with respect to other Holders.

The Company promises to pay to the holder of the Securities represented by this Certificate upon presentation and (when no further payment is due in respect of such Securities) surrender of this Certificate the principal amount of the Securities becoming due for redemption on that date together with any outstanding Arrears of Distribution and Additional Distribution Amount (if any) and any Distribution accrued to the date fixed for redemption (if any) and any Additional Amounts (if any), in each case, to be paid in accordance with the Indenture and will (subject to the Indenture) until such payment (both before and after judgment) unconditionally pay, or cause to be paid, to or to the order of the Trustee, Distribution on the principal amount of the Securities, and any Additional Distribution Amounts with respect to any Arrears of Distribution (if any), as set out in the Indenture.

On the Business Day prior to each Distribution Payment Date, the Company will, in good faith and as evidenced by a Board Resolution, calculate the applicable Distribution Rate payable in respect of the Securities for the period following such Distribution Payment Date in accordance with the Indenture and will cause the applicable Distribution Rate determined by it to be notified in writing to the Principal Paying Agent, the Trustee, the Holders and each listing authority, stock exchange and/or quotation system (if any) on or by which the Securities have then been admitted to listing, trading and/or quotation as soon as practicable after the relevant Distribution.

The Company may, at its sole discretion, elect to defer, in whole or in part, any Distribution (including any Arrears of Distribution and any Additional Distribution Amount) which is otherwise scheduled to be paid on a Distribution Payment Date to the immediately following Distribution Payment Date by giving notice to the Holders not more than 15 nor less than 10 Business Days prior to a scheduled Distribution Payment Date.

2. Indenture.

This is one of the Certificates issued under an Indenture, dated as of [●], 2017 (as amended from time to time, the “Indenture”), among Mongolian Mining Corporation (In Provisional Liquidation), an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Company”), Xxxxx Xxxxxx of PwC Corporate Finance & Recovery (Cayman) Limited and Xxxxxxxxxxx Xx Man Xxxx of PricewaterhouseCoopers Ltd.

The Securities are general obligations of the Company. The Indenture limits the original aggregate principal amount of the Securities to US$194,999,827.

3. Optional Redemption.

The Securities may be redeemed at the option of the Company in whole or in part on any Distribution Payment Date (each, a “Call Settlement Date”) on the Company giving not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice to the Holders (which notice shall be irrevocable and shall oblige the Company to redeem the Securities on the relevant Call Settlement Date) at a redemption price equal to the principal amount of the Securities, together with all Distribution accrued to the date fixed for redemption (including any Arrears of Distribution and any Additional Distribution Amount) (the “Redemption Amount”). If fewer than all of the Securities are to be redeemed, the Securities shall be selected for redemption on a pro rata basis and, if represented by a Global Certificate, in accordance with the procedures or Euroclear and Clearstream.

Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require indemnity and/or security and/or pre-funding to its satisfaction before it enforces the Indenture or the Securities. Subject to certain

A-5

limitations, Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of remedies.

6. Amendment and Waiver.

Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture and the Securities may be amended, or default may be waived, by Holders acting through an Extraordinary Resolution. Without notice to or the consent of any Holder, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Securities to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, or make any other change, which in the opinion of the Trustee will not materially prejudice the interests of the Holders.

Re: Perpetual Securities of Mongolian Mining Corporation (In Provisional Liquidation)

Reference is hereby made to the Indenture dated as of [●], 2017 (the “Indenture”) among Mongolian Mining Corporation (In Provisional Liquidation), an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands having its registered office at PwC Corporate Finance & Recovery (Cayman) Limited, P.O. Box 258, 00 Xxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxx Xxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxx XX0-0000, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx (the “Company”), Xxxxx Xxxxxx of PwC Corporate Finance & Recovery (Cayman) Limited, P.O.

By accepting such appointment, the Agents agree to be bound by and to perform the services with respect to itself set forth in the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture and the Securities, as well as the following terms and conditions to all of which the Company agrees and to all of which the rights of the holders from time to time of the Securities shall be subject:

(a) Each Agent shall be entitled to the compensation to be agreed upon with the Company for all services rendered by it hereunder, under the Indenture and in connection with the Securities, and the Company agree promptly to pay such compensation and to reimburse each Agent for its properly incurred out-of-pocket expenses (including properly incurred fees and expenses of counsel) in connection with the services rendered by it hereunder, under the Indenture and in connection with the Securities. The Company hereby agree to indemnify each Agent and its officers, directors, agents, employees and representatives for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or properly incurred expense (including properly incurred fees and expenses of counsel) without gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part arising out of or in connection with it acting as the Agent hereunder. The obligations of the Company under

C-1

this paragraph (a) shall survive the payment of the Securities, the termination or expiry of the Indenture or this letter and the resignation or removal of such Agent. Under no circumstances will an Agent be liable to the Company or any other party for any special, indirect, consequential, punitive or special loss or damages of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit, business, goodwill, reputation, opportunity), whether or not foreseeable and even if such Agent is actually aware of or have been advised of the possibility of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. The foregoing provisions shall survive the payment of the Securities, the termination or expiry of the Indenture or this letter, repayment of the Securities and resignation or removal of such Agent.

(b) In acting under the Indenture and in connection with the Securities, each Agent is acting solely as agent of the Company and does not assume any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust for or with any of the owners or holders of the Securities, except that all funds held by such Agent for the payment of principal, Distribution or other amounts (including Additional Amounts) on, the Securities shall, subject to the provisions of the Indenture, be held in trust by such Agent and applied as set forth in the Indenture and in the Securities, but need not be segregated from other funds held by such Agent, except as required by law.

(c) Each Agent may consult with counsel satisfactory to it and any advice or written opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it under the Indenture in good faith and in accordance with such advice or opinion.

(d) Each Agent shall be fully protected and shall incur no liability for or in respect of any action taken or omitted to be taken or thing suffered by it in reliance upon any Certificate, notice, direction, consent, certificate, affidavit, statement or other paper or document reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been presented or signed by the proper party or parties.

(e) Each Agent and any of its Affiliates, in its individual capacity or any other capacity, may become the owner of, or acquire any interest in, any Securities or other obligations of the Company with the same rights that it would have if it were not an Agent, and may engage or be interested in any financial or other transaction with the Company, and may act on, or as depository, Trustee or agent for, any committee or body of holders of Securities or other obligations of the Company, as freely as if it were not an Agent.

(f) No Agent shall be under any liability for interest on any monies received by it pursuant to any of the provisions of the Indenture or the Securities.

(g) Each Agent shall be obligated to perform such duties and only such duties as are in the Indenture and the Securities specifically set forth, and no implied duties or obligation shall be read into the Indenture or the Securities against such Agent. No Agent shall be under any obligation to take any action under the Indenture which may tend to

C-2

involve it in any expense or liability, the payment of which within a reasonable time is not, in its opinion, assured to it.

(h) Each Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of its resignation to the Company and the Trustee and specifying the date on which its resignation shall become effective; provided that such date shall be at least 60 days after the date on which such notice is given unless the Company agrees to accept shorter notice. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, if required by the Indenture, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Agent by written instrument substantially in the form hereof in triplicate signed on behalf of the Company, one copy of which shall be delivered to the resigning Agent, one copy to the successor Agent and one copy to the Trustee.

Such resignation shall become effective upon the earlier of (i) the effective date of such resignation and (ii) the acceptance of appointment by the successor Agent, as provided below. The Company may, at any time and for any reason, remove any Agent and appoint a successor Agent, by written instrument in triplicate signed on behalf of the Company, one copy of which shall be delivered to the Agent being removed, one copy to the successor Agent and one copy to the Trustee. Any removal of an Agent and any appointment of a successor Agent shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor Agent as provided below. Upon its resignation or removal, such Agent shall be entitled to the payment by the Company of its compensation for the services rendered hereunder and to the reimbursement of all out-of-pocket expenses properly incurred in connection with the services rendered by it hereunder.

The Company shall remove an Agent and appoint a successor Agent if such Agent (i) shall become incapable of acting, (ii) shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, (iii) shall commence a voluntary case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to it or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or seeking the appointment of a Trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official of it or any substantial part of its property, (iv) shall consent to, or shall have had entered against it a court order for, any such relief or to the appointment of or taking possession by any such official in any involuntary case or other proceedings commenced against it, (v) shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors or (vi) shall fail generally to pay its debts as they become due.

Any successor Agent appointed as provided herein shall execute and deliver to its predecessor and to the Company and the Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment (which may be in the form of an acceptance signature to the letter of the Company appointing such Agent) and thereupon such successor Agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Agent and such predecessor shall pay over to such successor Agent all monies or other property at the time held by it hereunder. If the successor Agent does not deliver its written acceptance within 30 days after the retiring Agent resigns or is removed, the retiring Agent (at the expense and on behalf of the Company) may appoint its own

C-3

successor, or the retiring Agent (at the expense of the Company) or the Company may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Agent.

(i) Each Agent shall at all times be a responsible financial institution which is authorized by law to exercise its respective powers and duties hereunder and under the Indenture and the Securities.

(y) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture and this letter, the Principal Paying Agent shall be entitled to make a deduction or withholding from any payment which it makes under the Securities for or on account of any Tax, if and only to the extent so required by Applicable Law, in which event the Principal Paying Agent shall make such payment after such deduction or withholding has been made and shall account to the relevant Authority within the time allowed for the amount so deducted or withheld or, at its option, shall reasonably promptly after making such payment return to the Company the amount so deducted or withheld, in which case, the Company shall so account to the relevant Authority for such amount. The Trustee or the Principal Paying Agent, as the case may be, will inform the Company as soon as reasonably practicable upon becoming aware that it has any such withholding or deduction obligations.

(z) In the event that the Company determines in its sole discretion that withholding for or on account of any Tax will be required by Applicable Law in connection with any payment due to any of the Agents on any Securities, then the Company will be entitled to redirect or reorganize any such payment in any way that it sees fit in order that the payment may be made without such deductions or withholding provided that, any such redirected or reorganized payment is made through a recognized institution of international standing and otherwise made in accordance with this letter; provided further that such recognized institution of international standing executes and delivers to the Company an instrument substantially in the form of this letter or as the parties agree otherwise in which such recognized institution of international standing shall agree with the Company, among other things, to be bound by and observe the provisions of the Indenture and the Securities (including, but not limited to, the agreements contained in Section 4.01(h) of the Indenture) applicable to an Agent (including the Principal Paying Agent). The Company will promptly notify the Principal Paying Agent of any such redirection or reorganization. The terms of the paragraphs (w) to (z) shall survive the termination of this letter, the Indenture, repayment of the Securities and the resignation or removal of the Agents.

For the purposes of this letter:

“Authority” means any competent regulatory, prosecuting, Tax or governmental authority in any jurisdiction.

“Code” means the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
