ARTICLE VII
Conversion

Section 7.01Conversion.

(a)Right to Convert.

Subject to Section 7.01(j) and Section 7.01(q), each Lender may at its option convert a minimum of $1,000,000 or its integral multiple of the Convertible Loans (or, if less, the remaining portion of the Convertible Loans which has not been converted pursuant to this Section 7.01) in whole or in part, at any time prior to the Maturity Date, into Class A Ordinary Shares at the Conversion Rate in effect at such time, subject to registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act.

(b)Exercise of Conversion Right; Issuance of Class A Ordinary Shares on Conversion.

(i)Conversion Procedure

(A)Subject to Section 7.01(b)(i)(B) below, the right of conversion attaching to the Convertible Loans may be exercised by delivery of a duly signed and completed Conversion Notice, in the form as set forth in Schedule 2 (a “Conversion Notice”), which Conversion Notice shall specify the principal amount of the IFC C Loan and the IFC D Loan

37

(determined as of the Effective Time, assuming that the Loans have been disbursed in full under and pursuant to Article II  (The Loans)), respectively, to be converted (the “Convertible Portion”) and the name or names (with address or addresses) in which the certificate or certificates for Class A Ordinary Shares which shall be issuable on such conversion shall be issued. The date on which the applicable Lender satisfies all of the requirements in the immediately preceding sentence for any Convertible Portion, is the “Conversion Date”. The Borrower shall deliver to the applicable Lender certificates, each registered in the name or names as specified by such Lender as described above, for the full number of whole Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon the conversion of the Convertible Portion of the IFC C Loan and/or the IFC D Loan, as applicable, in accordance with Section 7.01(a) plus a check or cash in respect of any fractional interest in respect of a Class A Ordinary Share arising upon such conversion, calculated by the Borrower as provided in Section 7.01(c) below no later than 3 Business Days following the relevant Conversion Date. All such shares shall be fully paid, duly authorized and validly issued and non-assessable and free from any Liens or encumbrances. The Borrower agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other parties hereto in doing, all things necessary to consummate and make effective the conversion contemplated by this Section 7.01.

(B)A Conversion Notice shall not be effective unless and until Borrower receives an RMB Funding Cancellation Certificate in respect of the RMB Financings in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to it duly executed by the Lenders evidencing, for the benefit of all relevant debtors (whether borrowers, pledgors, chargors and/or guarantors) (and each of the aforementioned howsoever described therein) under and pursuant to the relevant RMB Financing, the irrevocable cancellation prior to or contemporaneously with the conversion of the applicable Convertible Portion on the Conversion Date of an aggregate amount (whether actual, contingent or otherwise) outstanding under the RMB Financings of financial indebtedness or liabilities (each howsoever described) (whether actual, contingent or otherwise) owed under or pursuant to the RMB Financings in an amount equal to the product of (x) the Conversion Ratio, multiplied by (y) RMB Outstanding Funding Amount. For purposes of this Agreement, “Conversion Ratio” means the quotient of (aa) the Convertible Portion, divided by (bb) the aggregate amount of the Convertible Loans at the Effective Time (assuming that the IFC D Loan is disbursed up to the full amount of the Commitment in respect of the IFC D Loan at that time), ignoring any and all conversions thereof after the Effective Time). For the avoidance of doubt, for the purposes of satisfying the requirement in this Section of the irrevocable cancellation under an RMB Financing of an amount (whether actual, contingent or otherwise) outstanding under an RMB Financing of financial indebtedness or liabilities (each howsoever described) (whether actual, contingent or otherwise) owed under or pursuant to an RMB Financing, there shall be no double counting of the original debt and, if applicable, the replacement debt in respect of that RMB Financing and, for the purposes of this Agreement, “original debt” means the debt owed under the relevant RMB Financing prior to any repayment by a person other than the relevant debtor (whether borrowers, pledgors, chargors and/or guarantors) and “replacement debt” means the debt that existed on or after the aforementioned repayment.

(ii)The Convertible Portion of the IFC C Loan and/or the IFC D Loan, as applicable, shall be deemed to have been converted immediately prior to 5:00 p.m. New York time on the Conversion Date and the Person in whose name any Class A Ordinary Shares shall be issuable upon such conversion are registered shall be deemed to have become on said date the holder of record of the Class A Ordinary Shares.

(iii)The delivery by the Borrower to the applicable Lender of the number of Class A Ordinary Shares, together with a cash payment in lieu of any fractional shares, with respect to the Convertible Portion of the Convertible Loans surrendered for conversion, shall be deemed to satisfy the Borrower’s obligation to pay the principal amount of such Convertible Portion of the IFC C Loan and/or the IFC D Loan, as applicable, and accrued and unpaid interest with respect to such Convertible Portion of the IFC C Loan and/or the IFC D Loan, as applicable, attributable to the period from the most recent Interest Payment Date through the Conversion Date shall be payable on the next Interest Payment Date in accordance with Section 2.03 (Interest).

38

(c)Cash Payments in Lieu of Fractional Shares.

No fractional shares of Class A Ordinary Shares or scrip certificates representing fractional shares shall be issued upon conversion of the Convertible Loans. The number of full Class A Ordinary Shares that shall be issuable upon conversion shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Portion of the IFC C Loan and/or the IFC D Loan, as applicable, surrendered for conversion on any Conversion Date. If any fractional shares of stock would be issuable upon the conversion of any Convertible Portion of the IFC C Loan and/or the IFC D Loan, as applicable, the Borrower shall make an adjustment and payment therefore in cash to the applicable Lender at the current market price thereof to such Lender. The current market price of a Class A Ordinary Share shall be the current market price of an ADS divided by the number of Ordinary Shares then represented by each ADS (and current market price of an ADS shall be the Closing Sale Price on the last Trading Day immediately preceding the Conversion Date for such Convertible Portion).

(d)Conversion Rate.

Each $1,000 principal amount of the IFC C Loan and/or the IFC D Loan, as applicable, shall be convertible into Class A Ordinary Shares based upon the Conversion Rate, subject to adjustment as provided in this Section 7.01.

(e)Adjustments to Conversion Rate.

The Conversion Rate shall be adjusted from time to time by the Borrower as follows:

(i)Dividend or Distribution. In case the Borrower shall issue Ordinary Shares as a dividend or distribution to holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Ordinary Shares, or shall effect a share split or share combination, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR’ = CR(0) x  OS’

                          OS(0)

where,

CR(0) = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Ex Date for such dividend or distribution or immediately prior to the effective date of such share split or combination, as the case may be;

CR’ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Ex Date for such dividend or distribution or immediately after the effective date of such share split or combination, as the case may be;

OS(0) = the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Ex Date for such dividend or distribution or immediately prior to the effective date of such share split or combination, as the case may be; and

OS’ = the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend or distribution or immediately after the effective date of such share split or combination, as the case may be.

Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Ex Date fixed for such dividend or distribution, or the effective date for such share split or share combination. If any dividend or

39

distribution of the type described in this Section 7.01(e)(i) is declared but not so paid or made, or the outstanding Ordinary Shares are not split or combined, as the case may be, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution, or split or combine the outstanding Ordinary Shares, as the case may be, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination had not been declared.

(ii)Rights or Warrants. In case the Borrower shall distribute to all or substantially all holders of its outstanding Ordinary Shares rights or warrants entitling them (for a period expiring within 45 calendar days after the record date for such distribution) to subscribe for or purchase Ordinary Shares (directly or in the form of ADSs) at a price per share less than the Closing Sale Price of the ADSs divided by the number of Ordinary Shares then represented by each ADS on the Trading Day immediately preceding the declaration date of such distribution, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR’ = CR(0) x      OS(0) + X    

                              OS(0) + Y

where,

CR(0) = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Ex Date for such distribution;

CR’ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Ex Date for such distribution;

OS(0) = the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Ex Date for such distribution;

X = the total number of Ordinary Shares issuable (directly or in the form of ADSs) pursuant to such rights or warrants; and

Y = the number of Ordinary Shares equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights or warrants divided by the average of each of the Closing Sale Price of the ADSs divided by the number of Ordinary Shares then represented by each ADS over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex Date for such distribution.

Such adjustment shall be successively made whenever any such rights or warrants are distributed and shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the Ex Date for such distribution. The Borrower shall not issue any such rights or warrants in respect of Ordinary Shares held in treasury by the Borrower. To the extent that Ordinary Shares are not delivered after the expiration of such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of Ordinary Shares actually delivered (directly or in the form of ADSs). If such rights or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such Ex Date for such distribution had not been fixed.

In determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe

40

for or purchase Ordinary Shares (directly or in the form of ADSs) at less than such Closing Sale Price (as divided by the number of Ordinary Shares then represented by each ADS), and in determining the aggregate offering price of such Ordinary Shares, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Borrower for such rights or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or conversion thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors.

(iii)Distributed Property. In case the Borrower shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all or substantially all holders of its Ordinary Shares of any class of Share Capital of the Borrower (other than Ordinary Shares as covered by Section 7.01(e)(i), evidences of its Financial Debt or other assets or property of the Borrower (including securities, but excluding dividends and distributions covered by Section 7.01(e)(ii) or Section 7.01(e)(iv) and distributions described below in this subsection (iii) with respect to Spin-Offs) (any of such shares of Share Capital, Financial Debt, or other asset or property hereinafter in this Section 7.01(e)(iii) called the “Distributed Property”), then, in each such case the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR’ = CR(0)   x         SP(0)          

SP(0)-FMV

where,

CR(0) = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Ex Date for such distribution;

CR’ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Ex Date for such distribution;

SP(0) = the average of each of the Closing Sale Price of the ADSs divided by the number of Ordinary Shares then represented by each ADS over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex Date for such distribution; and

FMV = the fair market value as determined by the Board of Directors of the shares of Share Capital, evidences of Financial Debt, or other assets or property distributed with respect to each outstanding Ordinary Share on the Ex Date for such distribution.

Such adjustment shall become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the Ex Date for such distribution; provided that if “FMV” as set forth above is equal to or greater than “SP(0)” as set forth above, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that the applicable Lender shall have the right to receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Portion of the IFC C Loan and/or the IFC D Loan, as applicable, the amount of Distributed Property such Lender would have received had such Lender owned a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the Conversion Rate on the record date for such distribution, without being required to convert the Convertible Loans. If such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. If the Board of Directors determines “FMV” for purposes of this Section 7.01(e)(iii) by reference to the actual or when issued trading market for any securities, it must in doing so consider the prices in such market over the same period used in computing the Closing Sale Prices of the ADSs

41

divided by the number of Ordinary Shares then represented by each ADS over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex Date for such distribution.

With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 7.01(e)(iii) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on the Ordinary Shares in shares of any class or series, or similar equity interest, in the Share Capital of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit (a “Spin-Off”), the Conversion Rate in effect immediately before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the effective date of the Spin-Off shall be increased based on the following formula:

CR’ = CR(0)   x FMV(0) + MP(0)

MP(0)

where,

CR(0) = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the 10th Trading Day immediately following the effective date of the Spin-Off;

CR’ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the 10th Trading Day immediately following the effective date of the Spin-Off;

FMV(0) = the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the shares or similar equity interest distributed to holders of Ordinary Shares applicable to one Ordinary Share over the first 10 consecutive Trading Day period immediately following, and including, the effective date of the Spin-Off; and

MP(0) = the average of each of the Closing Sale Price of the ADSs divided by the number of Ordinary Shares then represented by each ADS on such Trading Day over the first 10 consecutive Trading Day period immediately following, and including, the effective date of the Spin-Off.

Such adjustment shall occur on the 10th Trading Day from, and including, the effective date of the Spin-Off; provided that in respect of any conversion within the 10 Trading Days immediately following, and including, the effective date of any Spin-Off, references with respect to the Spin-Off to 10 Trading Days shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed between the effective date of such Spin-Off and the Conversion Date in determining the applicable Conversion Rate.

Rights or warrants distributed by the Borrower to all holders of Ordinary Shares, entitling the holders thereof to subscribe for or purchase ADSs or shares of the Borrower’s Share Capital, including Ordinary Shares (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (“Trigger Event”): (i) are deemed to be transferred with such Ordinary Shares; (ii) are not exercisable; and (iii) are also issued in respect of future issuances of Ordinary Shares, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 7.01 (and no adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this  Section 7.01 shall be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event, whereupon such rights and warrants shall be deemed to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment (if any is required) to the Conversion Rate shall be made under this  Section 7.01(e)(iii). If any such rights or warrants are subject to events,

42

upon the occurrence of which such rights or warrants become exercisable to purchase different securities, evidences of Financial Debt or other assets, then the date of the occurrence of any and each such event shall be deemed to be the date of distribution and record date with respect to new rights or warrants with such rights (and a termination or expiration of the existing rights or warrants without exercise by any of the holders thereof). In addition, in the event of any distribution (or deemed distribution) of rights or warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in the preceding sentence) with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this  Section 7.01(e) was made, (A) in the case of any such rights or warrants that shall all have been redeemed or repurchased without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted upon such final redemption or repurchase to give effect to such distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or repurchase price received by a holder or holders of Ordinary Shares with respect to such rights or warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights or warrants), made to all holders of Ordinary Shares as of the date of such redemption or repurchase, and (B) in the case of such rights or warrants that shall have expired or been terminated without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights and warrants had not been issued.

For purposes of this  Section 7.01(e)(iii) and  Section 7.01(e)(i) and  Section 7.01(e)(ii) any dividend or distribution to which this  Section 7.01(e)(iii) is applicable that also includes Ordinary Shares to which Section 7.01(e)(i) applies or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase Ordinary Shares (directly or in the form of ADSs) to which Section 7.01(e)(i)  or Section 7.01(e)(ii) applies (or both), shall be deemed instead to be (A) a dividend or distribution of the evidences of Financial Debt, assets or shares of capital stock other than such Ordinary Shares or rights or warrants, to which this Section 7.01(e)(iii) applies (and any Conversion Rate adjustment required by this Section 7.01(e)(iii) with respect to such dividend or distribution shall then be made) immediately followed by (B) a dividend or distribution of such Ordinary Shares or such rights or warrants (and any further Conversion Rate adjustment required by Section 7.01(e)(i) and  Section 7.01(e)(ii) hereof with respect to such dividend or distribution shall then be made), except the Ex Date of such dividend or distribution shall under this Section 7.01(e)(iii) be substituted as “the Ex Date” within the meaning of Section 7.01(e)(i) and  Section 7.01(e)(ii) and any Ordinary Shares included in such dividend or distribution shall not be deemed “outstanding immediately prior to the Ex Date for such dividend or distribution or immediately prior to the effective date of such share split or combination, as the case may be” within the meaning of Section 7.01(e)(i) or “outstanding immediately prior to the Ex Date for such distribution” within the meaning of Section 7.01(e)(ii).

(iv)Cash Distribution. In case the Borrower shall pay dividends or make distributions consisting exclusively of cash to all or substantially all holders of its Ordinary Shares, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR’ = CR(0)   x        SP(0)         

SP(0) – C

where,

43

CR(0) = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Ex Date for such distribution;

CR’ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Ex Date for such distribution;

SP(0) = the Closing Sale Price of the ADSs divided by the number of Ordinary Shares then represented by each ADS on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex Date for such distribution; and

C = the amount in cash per share distributed to holders of Ordinary Shares in such distribution.

Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the Ex Date for such dividend or distribution; provided that if the portion of the cash so distributed applicable to one Ordinary Share is equal to or greater than SP(0) as set forth above, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that the applicable Lender shall receive on the date on which such cash dividend is distributed to holders of Ordinary Shares, for each $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Portion of the Convertible Loans, the amount of cash such Lender would have received had such Lender owned a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the Conversion Rate on the Ex Date for such distribution, without being required to convert the Convertible Portion of the Convertible Loans. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this Section 7.01(e)(iv), in the event of any reclassification of the Ordinary Shares, as a result of which the ADSs represent more than one class of Ordinary Shares, if an adjustment to the Conversion Rate is required pursuant to this Section 7.01(e)(iv), references in this Section 7.01 to one Ordinary Share or the Closing Sale Price of one ADS (as divided by the number of Ordinary Shares then represented by each ADS) shall be deemed to refer to a unit or to the price of a unit consisting of the number of shares of each class of Ordinary Shares equal to the numbers of shares of such class issued in respect of one Ordinary Share in such reclassification. The above provisions of this paragraph shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications.

(v)Tender Offer or Exchange Offer. In case the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries make a payment in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer for all or any portion of the Ordinary Shares, or ADSs representing Ordinary Shares, to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per Ordinary Share, or equivalent payment per Ordinary Share then represented by such ADSs, exceeds the Closing Sale Price of the ADSs divided by the number of Ordinary Shares then represented by each ADS on the Trading Day next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (as it may be amended), the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

CR’ = CR(0)   x    AC + (SP’ x OS’)

OS(0) x SP’

where,

CR(0) = the Conversion Rate in effect on the date such tender or exchange

44

offer expires;

CR’ = the Conversion Rate in effect on the day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires;

AC = the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration as determined by the Board of Directors paid or payable for the Ordinary Shares purchased (directly or in the form of ADSs) in such tender or exchange offer;

OS(0) = the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to the date such tender or exchange offer expires;

OS’ = the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after the date such tender or exchange offer expires (after giving effect to such tender offer or exchange offer); and

SP’ = the Closing Sale Price of the ADSs divided by the number of Ordinary Shares then represented by each ADS on the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires.

Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after close of business on the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires. If the Borrower or its Subsidiary is obligated to purchase Ordinary Shares pursuant to any such tender or exchange offer, but the Borrower or its Subsidiary is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting all or any such purchases or all or any portion of such purchases are rescinded, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such tender or exchange offer had not been made or had only been made in respect of the purchases that had been effected.

No adjustment to the Conversion Rate shall be made if the application of any of the foregoing formulas (other than in connection with a share combination) would result in a decrease in the Conversion Rate.

For purposes of this Section 7.01 the term “record date” shall mean, with respect to any dividend, distribution or other transaction or event in which the holders of Ordinary Shares have the right to receive any cash, securities or other property or in which the Ordinary Shares (or other applicable security) is exchanged for or converted into any combination of cash, securities or other property, the date fixed for determination of shareholders entitled to receive such cash, securities or other property (whether such date is fixed by the Board of Directors or by statute, contract or otherwise).

The term “Ex Date,” (i) when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first Trading Date on which the ADSs Closing Sale Price is obtained without the right to receive such issuance or distribution, (ii) when used with respect to any share split or combination of shares of Ordinary Shares, means the first Trading Date after the time at which such share split or combination becomes effective, and (iii) when used with respect to any tender offer or exchange offer means the first Trading Date after the expiration time of such tender offer or exchange offer (as it may be amended or extended).

(vi)In addition to those required by Section 7.01(e)(i) through Section 7.01(e)(v), and to the extent permitted by applicable law and the continued listing requirements of the

45

New York Stock Exchange, the Borrower from time to time may increase the Conversion Rate by any amount for a period of at least 20 calendar days or any longer period permitted by law if the Board of Directors determines that such increase would be in the Borrower’s best interest. Whenever the Conversion Rate is increased pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Borrower shall deliver to the applicable Lender a notice of the increase at least 15 calendar days prior to the date the increased Conversion Rate takes effect, and such notice shall state the increased Conversion Rate and the period during which it will be in effect. In addition, the Borrower may also (but is not required to) increase the Conversion Rate to avoid or diminish any Tax to holders of Ordinary Shares or ADSs or rights to purchase Ordinary Shares or ADSs in connection with any dividend or distribution of shares (or rights to acquire shares) or similar event.

(vii)Without limiting the foregoing, no adjustment to the Conversion Rate need be made:

(A)upon the issuance of any Ordinary Shares pursuant to any future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on securities of the Borrower and the investment of additional optional amounts in Ordinary Shares under any plan;

(B)upon the issuance of any Ordinary Shares, or any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security to purchase Ordinary Shares, pursuant to any future agreements entered into with the Borrower’s suppliers of raw materials or machinery as consideration or inducement to enter into such supply agreement, provided that such supply agreement is entered into on arm’s length terms;

(C)upon the issuance of any Ordinary Shares or options or rights to purchase Ordinary Shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (after the exercise of which, the aggregate number of the issued Class A Ordinary Shares pursuant to such plans or programs does not exceed 15% of the issued Share Capital of the Borrower throughout the term of the Loans);

(D)upon the issuance of any Ordinary Shares pursuant to any option, warrant, right, or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not described in clause (C) above and outstanding as of the date of this Agreement;

(E)upon the issuance of any Ordinary Shares not described above and outstanding as of the Effective Date;

(F)for a change in the par value of the Ordinary Shares; or

(G)for accrued and unpaid interest.

(viii)No adjustment shall be made for the Borrower’s issuance of Ordinary Shares (directly or in the form of ADSs) or convertible or exchangeable securities or rights to purchase Ordinary Shares (directly or in the form of ADSs) or convertible or exchangeable securities, other than as provided in this Section 7.01.

(ix)In any case in which this Section 7.01 provides that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after (1) the Ex Date for an event or (2) the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to any tender or exchange offer pursuant to Section 7.01(e)(v) (each an “Adjustment Determination Date”), the Borrower may elect to defer until the occurrence of the applicable Adjustment Event (as hereinafter defined) (x) issuing to the Lender with respect to any Convertible Portion of the IFC C Loan or the IFC D Loan, as applicable, converted after such Adjustment Determination Date and before the occurrence of such Adjustment Event, the additional ADSs or other securities issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such Adjustment Event over and above the amounts deliverable upon such conversion

46

before giving effect to such adjustment and (y) paying to the Lender any amount in cash in lieu of any fractional Class A Ordinary Share pursuant to Section 7.01 hereof. For purposes of this subsection (i), the term “Adjustment Event” shall mean: (A) in any case referred to in clause (1) hereof, the date any dividend or distribution of Ordinary Shares (directly or in the form of ADSs), shares of Share Capital, evidences of Financial Debt, other assets or property or cash is paid or made, the effective date of any share split or combination or the date of expiration of any rights or warrants, and (B) in any case referred to in clause (2) hereof, the date a sale or exchange of Ordinary Shares (directly or in the form of ADSs) pursuant to such tender or exchange offer is consummated and becomes irrevocable.

(x)Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment reducing the Conversion Rate below the then par value, if any, of the Ordinary Shares, the Borrower shall take all corporate action which it reasonably determines may be necessary in order that the Borrower may validly and legally issue Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Portion at such adjusted Conversion Rate. The Borrower covenants that all Ordinary Shares (and/or Ordinary Shares represented by the ADSs) issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Portion shall be fully paid and non-assessable by the Borrower and free from all Taxes, Liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.

(xi)No adjustment in the Conversion Rate shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in such rate; provided that any adjustments that by reason of this Section 7.01(e)(xi) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and the Borrower shall make such carry forward adjustments, regardless of whether the aggregate adjustment is less than 1%, (x) annually on the anniversary of the Closing Date and otherwise (y) 5 Business Days prior to the earlier maturity of the IFC C Loan and the IFC D Loan. All calculations under this Section 7.01 (Conversion) shall be made by the Borrower and shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest 1/1,000,000 of a Class A Ordinary Share, as the case may be.

(xii)Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the Borrower shall send to the Lender an Officers’ Certificate, as promptly as possible and in any event within 10 Business Days after such adjustment, setting forth the Conversion Rate after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and the date on which such adjustment becomes effective. Unless and until the applicable Lender shall have received such Officers’ Certificate, the Lender shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any adjustment of the Conversion Rate and may assume that the last Conversion Rate of which it has actual knowledge is still in effect. Failure to deliver such Officer’s Certificate shall not affect the legality or validity of any such adjustment.

(f)Other Adjustments.

In the event that, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to Section 7.01(e) hereof, the applicable Lender may become entitled to receive any shares or securities other than Class A Ordinary Shares, or if the Class A Ordinary Shares become converted, exchanged, reclassified or otherwise changed into other shares or securities, thereafter the Conversion Rate of such other shares so receivable upon conversion of the Convertible Portion of the Convertible Loans shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to Class A Ordinary Shares contained in this Article VII (Conversion).

(g)Adjustments for Tax Purposes.

Except as prohibited by law the Borrower may (but is not obligated to) make such increases in the Conversion Rate, in addition to those required by Section 7.01 hereof, as it determines to be advisable in order that any share dividend, subdivision of shares, distribution of rights to purchase shares or securities or distribution of securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares made by the Borrower or to holders of Ordinary Shares or ADSs will not be taxable to the recipients thereof or in order to diminish any such taxation.

47

(h)Effect of Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.

If any of the following events occur, namely:

(i)any reclassification or change in the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Portion of the Convertible Loans (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination of Class A Ordinary Shares);

(ii)any consolidation, merger, binding share exchange, reconstruction, amalgamation or other similar arrangement, or such to which the Borrower is a party, other than a merger in which the Borrower is the continuing Person and which does not result in any reclassification of, or change (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination) in, the Class A Ordinary Shares; or

(iii)any sale, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the property or assets of the Borrower or those of its Subsidiaries taken as a whole to any other Person or Persons;

in each case, pursuant to which the Class A Ordinary Shares would be converted into or exchanged for, or would constitute solely the right to receive, cash, securities or other property, then the Borrower or such successor or purchasing Person, as the case may be, shall execute and deliver to the applicable Lender an amendment to this Agreement in form reasonably satisfactory to such Lender providing that, at and after the effective time of such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, binding share exchange, reconstruction, amalgamation or other similar arrangement, or such sale, transfer, lease, conveyance or disposition, such Lender shall have the right to convert the Convertible Portion of the Convertible Loans into the kind and amount of cash, securities or other property (collectively, “Reference Property”) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, binding share exchange, reconstruction, amalgamation or other similar arrangement, or such sale, transfer, lease, conveyance or disposition by a holder of a number of Class A Ordinary Shares equal to a fraction whose denominator is 1,000 and whose numerator is the product of the principal amount of the Convertible Portion of the Convertible Loans and the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, binding share exchange, reconstruction, amalgamation or other similar arrangement, or such sale, transfer, lease, conveyance or disposition. If holders of Class A Ordinary Shares shall have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to receive pursuant to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, binding share exchange, reconstruction, amalgamation or other similar arrangement, or such sale, transfer, lease, conveyance or disposition, then the Borrower shall make adequate provision to give the applicable Lender a reasonable opportunity to elect the form of such consideration for purposes of determining the composition of the Reference Property referred to in the immediately preceding sentence. The amendment referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph shall provide for adjustments of the Conversion Rate which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments of the Conversion Rate provided for in this Section 7.01. The foregoing, however, shall not in any way affect the right the Lender may otherwise have, pursuant to Section 7.01(e), to receive rights or warrants upon conversion. If, in the case of any such consolidation, merger, binding share exchange, reconstruction, amalgamation or other similar arrangement, or such sale, transfer, lease, conveyance or disposition, the cash, securities or other and property receivable thereupon by a holder of Class A Ordinary Shares includes cash, securities or other property of a Person other than the successor or purchasing Person, as the case may

48

be, in such consolidation, merger, binding share exchange, reconstruction, amalgamation or other similar arrangement, or such sale, transfer, lease, conveyance or disposition, then such amendment shall also be executed by such other Person and shall contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the Lenders as the Board of Directors in good faith shall reasonably determine necessary by reason of the foregoing (which determination shall be described in a Board Resolution). The provisions of this Section 7.01 shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, binding share exchanges, reconstruction, amalgamation or other similar arrangement, or successive sales, transfers, leases, conveyances or dispositions.

In the event the Borrower shall execute an amendment pursuant to this subsection (h), the Borrower shall promptly deliver to the Lenders an Officer’s Certificate briefly stating the reasons therefore, the kind or amount of shares of stock or securities or property (including cash) receivable by the Lenders upon the conversion after any such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, binding share exchange, reconstruction, amalgamation or other similar arrangement, or such sale, transfer, lease, conveyance or disposition and any adjustment to be made with respect thereto.

(i)Taxes on Shares Issued.

The issue of Class A Ordinary Shares, or share certificates, as the case may be, upon conversions of the Convertible Portion of the Convertible Loans shall be made without charge to the applicable Lender for any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer Tax or duty in respect of the issue thereof.

(j)Reservation of Shares; shares to be Fully Paid; Compliance with Governmental Requirements.

(i)The Borrower shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to amend its articles of incorporation to reflect (and shall thereafter at all times maintain) enough, out of its authorized but unissued Class A Ordinary Shares, Class A Ordinary Shares to permit the issuance of Class A Ordinary Shares upon conversion of the Convertible Portion of the Convertible Loans, from time to time as Convertible Portion of the Convertible Loans are presented for conversion, provided that to the extent that a Conversion Notice is delivered pursuant to this Agreement at a time when the authorized but unissued Class A Ordinary Shares are insufficient to satisfy the conversion of the Convertible Portion of the Convertible Loans specified in that notice, the Borrower shall only be required to ensure the conversion of the relevant Convertible Portion of the Convertible Loans that corresponds to the authorized but unissued Class A Ordinary Shares at the time of the receipt of the relevant Conversion Notice by the Borrower.

(ii)The Borrower covenants that all Class A Ordinary Shares, which may be issued upon conversion of the Convertible Loans, shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and shall be free of pre-emptive or similar rights and free from all Taxes, Liens and charges or adverse claims with respect to the issue thereof.

(iii)The Borrower covenants that, if any Class A Ordinary Shares to be provided for the purpose of conversion of Convertible Portion of the Convertible Loans hereunder require registration with or approval of any governmental authority under any federal or state law before such Class A Ordinary Shares may be validly issued upon conversion, the Borrower will in good faith and as expeditiously as possible, to the extent then permitted by the rules and interpretations of the SEC, endeavour to secure such registration or approval, as the case may be.

(iv)The Borrower covenants that it shall take all such actions and obtain

49

all such approvals and registrations required for the payment in accordance herewith of Class A Ordinary Shares.

(k)Notice to the Lenders Prior to Certain Action.

In the event that:

(i)the Borrower takes any action, or becomes aware of any event, which would require an adjustment in the Conversion Rate;

(ii)there is any reclassification or reorganization of the Class A Ordinary Shares of the Borrower, or of any consolidation or merger to which the Borrower is a party and for which approval of any stockholders of the Borrower is required, or of the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower; or

(iii)there is a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Borrower,

the Borrower shall mail a notice to the Lenders, at least 30 scheduled Trading Days prior to the applicable date hereinafter specified, stating (A) the proposed Conversion Date, effective date or expiration date, as the case may be, or (B) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective or occur, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Class A Ordinary Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Class A Ordinary Shares for securities or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such action or event, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up.

(l)Convertible Loans deemed to be Prepaid.

Subject to the conversion pursuant to Section 7.01(a), the IFC C Loan and/or the IFC D Loan, as applicable, shall be deemed to be prepaid on the Conversion Date by the amount of the Convertible Portion on the Conversion Date.

(m)Securities Law Compliance by the Borrower.

The Borrower represents that the issuance of any Class A Ordinary Shares issued to the Lender upon conversion of the Convertible Portion of the Convertible Loan will be exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act and all applicable state and foreign securities laws and neither the Borrower nor any agent of the Borrower has offered the Class A Ordinary Shares by any form of general solicitation or general advertising.

(n)Securities Law Compliance by the Lender.

Each Lender represents on the date that it becomes a party to this Agreement that it is is an “accredited Investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D, as amended, under the Securities Act. The Original Lender’s principal place of business is at the address specified in Section 8.02(b) (Notices). The Original Lender did not learn of the opportunity to acquire the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Portion of the Convertible Loan by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising.

50

(o)Restricted Securities.

Each Lender understands that the Class A Ordinary Shares issued to such Lender upon conversion of the Convertible Portion of the Convertible Loans will be characterized as “restricted securities” under the United States federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Borrower in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances. Each Lender understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Class A Ordinary Shares or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Class A Ordinary Shares.

(p)Legends.

Each Lender understands that on the date that it becomes a Lender under this Agreement, except as provided below and until such time as the resale thereof has been registered under the Securities Act (or pursuant to an applicable exemption from such registration), or unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower, certificates evidencing the Class A Ordinary Shares issued to such Lender shall bear the following legends:

(i)“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED, OFFERED FOR SALE, OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF, OR DEPOSITED IN ANY AMERICAN DEPOSITORY RECEIPT PROGRAM OF THE BORROWER, IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR IF REQUIRED BY THE COMPANY AN OPINION FROM COUNSEL IN A FORM ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY AND ITS LEGAL COUNSEL STATING THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.”

(ii)If required under the securities laws of any U.S. state or foreign country in connection with the issuance of the Class A Ordinary Shares upon conversion of the Convertible Portion of the Convertible Loans to the Lenders, any legends required in order to comply with such laws.

(q)Allocation Among Lenders. Notwithstanding any other provision of the IFC Financing Documents, the parties to this Agreement agree:

(i)that, to the extent that there is more than one Lender at the relevant time of conversion, any conversion by a Lender of the Convertible Loans in part shall be, and only be, effected on a pro rata basis as regards all of the Convertible Loan held by all Lenders at the relevant time of conversion. Accordingly, if a Lender submits a Conversion Notice, each other Lender shall be deemed to have submitted a Conversion Notice at the same time in respect of a pro rata amount of the Convertible Loans held by that Lender at the relevant time, with Section 7.01(j)(i) (Reservation of Shares; shares to be Fully Paid; Compliance with Governmental Requirements) above applying to this Section and all Conversion Notices mutatis mutandis. The Borrower will promptly forward to each other Lender any Conversion Notice received by it and each such Lender shall promptly confirm to the Borrower the name or names (with address or addresses) in which the certificate or certificates for Class A Ordinary Shares which shall be issuable on such conversion of their Convertible Portion shall be issued (the aforementioned rules in this paragraph being the “Pro Rata Rule”); and

(ii)on the assumption and basis of the Pro Rata Rule, the entitlement of any Lender to Class A Ordinary Shares on any conversion of the Lenders’ Convertible Portions shall be the following:

51

Lender	Allocation
Original Lender	The difference of
	(x) the total number of Class A Ordinary Shares issued in relation to the aggregate Convertible Portions (of the Original Lender and all Other Lenders) subject to a Conversion Notice deemed concurrently delivered in accordance with Section 7.01(q)(i) above with respect to a particular conversion pursuant to Article VII, the “Aggregate Convertible Portions”, reduced by (y) the aggregate number of  such shares to be issued to each Other Lender in relation to such Aggregate Convertible Portions (as determined below)
Other Lender	The product of:
	(x) the total number of Class A Ordinary Shares issued in relation to particular Aggregate Convertible Portions, multiplied by
	(y) the quotient of the aggregate amount of Convertible Loans held by that Other Lender at the relevant time of conversion, divided by 48 million

The Lenders agree that, to the extent required, they shall make such directions to Persons and/or transfers of Class A Ordinary Shares among themselves in order to reflect the allocation between the Lenders of Class A Ordinary Shares set out in the table above.

For the purposes of the table above, to the extent that the Original Lender sells any of its Commitment or participations in a Loan contemporaneously with or after the Effective Time, any purchaser of that Commitment or participation in a Loan shall be treated as an “Other Lender” and, to the extent that the Original Lender purchases any Commitment or participation in a Loan contemporaneously with or after the Effective Time, the Original Lender shall be treated as regards that Commitment and/or participation in a Loan as an “Other Lender”.

(b)Subject to the Proviso (as defined in Section 8.06(a) above), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding the terms of any other agreement between the Borrower and each Co-Borrower and the Lenders, a disclosure of information by any Lender in the circumstances contemplated by Section 8.07(a) (Indemnification; No Consequential Damages) does not violate any duty owed to the Borrower and each Co-Borrower under this Agreement or under any such other agreement.

Section 8.07Indemnification; No Consequential Damages.

(a)The Borrower and each Co-Borrower shall indemnify the Lenders and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives (each, an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel) incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or related to (i) the execution, delivery or performance of any Transaction Document or any other agreement or instrument contemplated thereby or the consummation of the Transaction or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) the Loans or the use of proceeds thereof, (iii) non-compliance with any law or regulation, including any environmental law or regulation, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is party thereto; provided that such indemnity will not be available to any Indemnitee to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses resulted directly from such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(b)To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower and each Co-Borrower shall not assert, and hereby agrees to waive, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of, in connection with, or relating to, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Loans or the use of the proceeds thereof.

Section 8.08Successors and Assignees.

Any amendment or waiver of, or any consent given under, any provision of this Agreement shall be in writing signed by the party granting such consent or waiver and, in the case of an amendment, signed by the Borrower, the Co-Borrowers and the Required Lenders; provided that no such no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by each Lender directly affected thereby, in addition to the Required Lenders, do any of the following:
