(c) The security interest created under this Assignment shall be independent of and without prejudice to and in addition to any other guarantees, indemnities, undertakings or Lien, which the Collateral Agent may now or at any time hereafter have in respect of the Secured Obligations or any other obligations of the Mortgagor to the Collateral Agent. This security interest under this Assignment may be enforced without first having recourse to any of the guarantee, indemnities, undertakings or Lien referred to above.

Section 9. Rights of Collateral Agent upon Event of Default.

(a) The Collateral Agent may declare by written notice to the Mortgagor that all or any part of the security interest created hereunder is enforceable upon the occurrence of any of the following events (each, an “Event of Default”);

(i) any event or circumstances occurs or arises which would constitute an “Event of Default” as defined in the Indenture; or

Without in any way requiring notice to be given in the following time and manner, Mortgagor agrees that any notice by Collateral Agent of sale or disposition or other intended action hereunder in connection with any sale or disposition whether required by the applicable law, shall constitute reasonable notice to Mortgagor if such notice is given to Mortgagor and in the manner specified in Section 11 at least ten (10) calendar days prior to such action.

(e) Mortgagor agrees that transfer of the Loan Collateral to Collateral Agent, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, shall be deemed as a commercially reasonable disposition of the Loan Collateral under any applicable law.

(f) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Mortgagor will not demand or receive any income from, interest or dividends on or other payment in respect of the Loan Collateral, and if Mortgagor receives any such income, interest, dividends or payment, without any demand by Collateral Agent, the same shall be held by Mortgagor in trust for Collateral Agent in the same form as received, shall not be commingled with any assets of Mortgagor and shall be delivered to Collateral Agent in the form received, properly endorsed to permit collection, not later than the next Business Day (as defined in the Indenture) following the day of its receipt.

(g) Collateral Agent shall notify Mortgagor promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by Collateral Agent to so notify Mortgagor shall not relieve Mortgagor of its obligations hereunder. Mortgagor shall defend the claim (if applicable) and Collateral Agent shall cooperate in the defense (if applicable). Collateral Agent may have separate counsel and Mortgagor shall pay the properly incurred fees and expenses of such counsel. Mortgagor need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Section 10. Further Assurance and Power of Attorney.

(a) Mortgagor agrees to take such actions and to execute such other instruments as Collateral Agent may request further to perfect, confirm and assure Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Loan Collateral and, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and/or during the continuance thereof, to assist Collateral Agent’s realization thereon.

(b) The Mortgagor hereby irrevocably and by way of security appoints the Collateral Agent (with full power to appoint substitutes and to sub-delegate) to be its attorney for it and in its name and on its behalf or otherwise and, after this security becomes enforceable, to execute and do all such acts and things which the Mortgagor is required to do pursuant to or relating to this Assignment, including without limitation to sign, seal, deliver, perfect and do any deed, assurance, document or act which may be

required or may be deemed proper by the Collateral Agent whether in favor of the Collateral Agent or any other person and whether for the purpose of exercising any power conferred by this Assignment or otherwise in connection with the enforcement of this security.

(c) Without prejudice to the generality of the provisions contained in Section 10(b), the Mortgagor hereby covenants with the Collateral Agent that if required so to do, the Mortgagor will ratify and confirm:

(ii) all transactions entered into by the Collateral Agent in signing, sealing, delivering and otherwise perfecting any assignment, mortgage, charge, security, deed, assurance, document or act in the exercise of the Collateral Agent’s powers in accordance with this Assignment.

(b) The Mortgagor covenants with and undertakes fully to indemnify the Collateral Agent in respect of all proceedings (including without limitation claims and liabilities in respect of taxes other than taxes imposed on its own overall net income or net profits), claims and demands and all losses, interest, fees, actions, penalties, costs, charges, expenses, and liabilities to which it (or any of its employees, directors or officers, attorneys, agents or other persons appointed by it, to whom any trust, power, authority or discretion may be delegated by it in the execution or purported execution of the trusts, rights, remedies, powers, authorities or discretions vested in it by or pursuant to this Assignment, any of the other Security Documents to which the Collateral Agent is a party or which constitutes part of the Loan Collateral) has suffered or become liable or which may be suffered or incurred by it (or any such person as aforesaid) in respect of any matter or thing done or omitted in any way relating to this Assignment and/or any of the Security Documents to which the Collateral Agent is a party or which constitutes part of the Loan Collateral or in consequence of

the Collateral Agent taking or refraining from taking any action or exercising or refraining from exercising any of its rights under this Assignment and/or the other Security Documents and all agreements, documents and instruments relating to the Collateral (as defined in the Indenture) (including without limitation the perfection, preservation or enforcement of this Assignment) or in consequence of any payment in respect of the Secured Obligations (whether made by the Mortgagor or another person) being declared void for any reason whatsoever, or in respect of the non-performance or non-observance of any of the undertakings and agreements of the Mortgagor herein contained or in respect of any matter or thing done or omitted relating in any way whatsoever to the Loan Collateral, save where such proceedings, claims, demands, losses, interest, fees, actions, penalties, costs, charges, expenses or liabilities arise as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the person seeking reimbursement or indemnification. The Collateral Agent may retain and pay out of any money in the hands of the Collateral Agent all sums necessary to effect the indemnities contained in this Section and all sums payable by the Mortgagor under this Section shall form part of the moneys hereby secured. The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Assignment and the resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent.

(c) All sums payable by the Mortgagor under this Assignment shall be paid in full without set-off or counterclaim or any restriction or condition and free and clear of any tax or other deductions or withholdings of any nature. If the Mortgagor or any other person is required by any law or regulation to make any deduction or withholding (on account of tax or otherwise) from any payment, then the Mortgagor shall, together with such payment, pay such additional amount as will ensure that the Collateral Agent receives (free and clear of any tax or other deductions or withholdings) the full amount which it would have received if no such deduction or withholding had been required. The Mortgagor shall promptly forward to the Collateral Agent copies of official receipts or other evidence showing that the full amount of any such deduction or withholding has been paid over to the relevant taxation or other authority.

Section 13. Special Damages and Consequential Loss. Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Assignment to the contrary, the Collateral Agent shall not be liable for special, punitive, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever including but not limited to loss of profits, whether or not foreseeable, and regardless of whether the claim for such loss or damage is made for breach of contract, breach of trust, breach of fiduciary obligation or otherwise. The provisions of this section shall survive the termination or expiry of this Assignment or the resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent.

Section 14. Illegality/Expenditure of Collateral Agent Funds. No provision of this Assignment shall require the Collateral Agent to do anything that may: (i) be illegal or contrary to applicable law or regulation; (ii) cause it to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its own rights or powers, if it shall have grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or satisfactory indemnity against such risk or the liability is not assured to it.

Section 15. Delegations. The Collateral Agent may execute any of its powers and perform any of its duties hereunder directly or through delegates or attorneys and may consult with counsel, accountants and other skilled persons to be reasonably selected and retained by it. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for the acts of such delegates or attorneys, or for anything done, suffered or omitted by it in accordance with the advice or opinion of any such counsel, accountants or other skilled persons provided that the Collateral Agent shall use due professionalism and due care in selecting such delegates, attorneys, counsel, accountants or skilled persons.

Section 16. Force Majeure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Assignment or in any other Transaction Document, the Collateral Agent shall not in any event be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder if it is prevented from so performing its obligations by any existing or future law or regulation, any existing or future act of governmental authority, act of God, flood, war whether declared or undeclared, terrorism, riot, rebellion, civil commotion, strike, lockout, other industrial action, general failure of electricity or other supply, aircraft collision, technical failure, accidental or mechanical or electrical breakdown, computer failure or failure of any money transmission system or any reason which is beyond the control of the Collateral Agent.

Section 17. Assignment. This Assignment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Mortgagor shall not assign or transfer its rights or its obligations hereunder. The Collateral Agent may from time to time assign its rights under this Assignment to its successor collateral agent without the consent of the Mortgagor. If the Collateral Agent consolidates, merges, or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Collateral Agent.

Section 18. Amendment.

(a) No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Assignment, or consent to any departure by Mortgagor therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of Collateral Agent in its discretion.

(b) Mortgagor shall not agree to any amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of the Intercompany Loan Agreement, or consent to any departure by the WFOE from its obligations under the Intercompany Loan Agreement, without the written concurrence of Collateral Agent in its discretion.

Section 19. No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of Collateral Agent in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Transaction Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. All rights, powers and remedies existing

under this Assignment are cumulative, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available. Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.

Section 20. Severability. If any provision of this Assignment is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, that shall not affect the legality, validity or enforceability in that jurisdiction of any other provision of this Assignment, or the legality, validity or enforceability in any other jurisdiction of that or any other provision of this Assignment.

Section 21. Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations, warranties and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery hereof.

Section 22. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution.

(a) THIS ASSIGNMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF HONG KONG.

(b) The Mortgagor agrees that any legal action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Assignment may be brought in the courts of Hong Kong and irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts, or alternatively, at the Collateral Agent’s sole discretion, may be submitted to Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (“HKIAC”) for arbitration.

(c) In any event that the Collateral Agent chooses to bring the legal proceeding before the courts of Hong Kong, the Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints [Law Debenture, Hong Kong address] as its agent to receive and acknowledge on its behalf service of any writ, summons, order, judgment or other notice of legal process in Hong Kong. If for any reason the agent named above (or its successor) no longer serves as agent of the Mortgagor for this purpose, the Mortgagor shall promptly appoint a successor agent satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and notify the Collateral Agent thereof PROVIDED THAT until the Collateral Agent receives such notification, it shall be entitled to treat the agent named above (or its said successor) as the agent of the Mortgagor for the purposes of this Section. The Mortgagor agrees that any such legal process shall be sufficiently served on it if delivered to such agent for service at its address for the time being in Hong Kong whether or not such agent gives notice thereof to the Mortgagor.

(d) In any event that the Collateral Agent chooses to resolve any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or in connection with this Assignment through arbitration, it shall be settled by arbitration in Hong Kong under the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules in force at the time of the initiation of the arbitration. The arbitration shall be administered by the HKIAC in accordance with the HKIAC Procedures for the Administration of International Arbitration in force at the time of the initiation of the

arbitration. In the case of any conflict between the terms of this Assignment and the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules, the terms of this Assignment shall prevail. The seat of arbitration shall be Hong Kong. The arbitral tribunal shall consist of three arbitrators, with one appointed by each of the parties and a third neutral arbitrator to be appointed by other two (2) party-appointed arbitrators and who shall act as the Chairman. The parties agree to the appointment of arbitrators who are not on HKIAC’s Panel of Arbitrators. If either party fails to appoint an arbitrator within the time specified in the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules, or if the two party-appointed arbitrators fail to jointly appoint the third neutral arbitrator within the time specified in the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules, the Secretary General of HKIAC shall make such an appointment. The arbitration shall be conducted on a confidential basis. All arbitration proceedings shall be held in the English language. Any arbitration award made by the arbitration panel shall be final and binding on the parties and may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties shall submit to the jurisdiction of any such court for purposes of the enforcement of any such award. Notwithstanding the foregoing agreement to arbitrate, the parties expressly reserve the right to seek provisional relief from any court of competent jurisdiction to preserve their respective rights pending arbitration.

(e) Nothing herein shall limit the right of the Collateral Agent to commence any legal action against the Mortgagor and/or its property in any other jurisdiction or to serve process in any manner permitted by law, and the taking of proceedings in any jurisdiction shall not preclude the taking of proceedings in any other jurisdiction whether concurrently or not.

(f) The Mortgagor irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the choice of Hong Kong as the venue of any legal action arising out of or relating to this Agreement. The Mortgagor also agrees that a final judgment or an arbitral award against it in any such legal action shall be final and conclusive and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction, and that a certified or otherwise duly authenticated copy of the judgment shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and amount of its indebtedness.

(g) The Mortgagor irrevocably waives any immunity to which it or its property may at any time be or become entitled, whether characterized as sovereign immunity or otherwise, from any set-of or legal action in Hong Kong or elsewhere, including immunity from service of process, immunity from jurisdiction of any court or tribunal, and immunity of any of its property from attachment prior to judgment or from execution of a judgment.

Section 23. Counterparts/Language. This Assignment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Assignment is written in English.
