Section 9.02. Authorized Modern Mind Shares. Modern Mind, in accordance with Section 7.02 shall, at all times, authorize, and keep authorized and unissued, a sufficient number of Modern Mind Shares to enable the Company to convert all amounts then outstanding under any Demand Notes at any time.

Section 9.03. Conversion Procedures. Upon Modern Mind’s receipt of the Company’s notice that it elects to convert amounts outstanding, including amounts in respect of capitalized interest and accrued but not capitalized interest, under any of the Demand Notes into such amount of Modern Mind Shares pursuant to Section 9.01 hereof, such amounts shall be deemed converted into such amount of Modern Mind Shares. Promptly after surrender by the Company of the outstanding Demand Notes representing the amounts so converted, Modern Mind shall deliver to the Company (i) such amount of Modern Mind Shares duly issued to the Company and registered in the name of the Company or its designee and (ii) a duly executed Demand Note representing any amounts outstanding, including amounts in respect of capitalized interest and accrued but not capitalized interest, on Demand Notes surrendered by the Company but which the Company did not elect to convert.

Section 10.01. Option. Jesper Limited hereby grants the Company an exclusive option to acquire, at any time, from Jesper Limited the Modern Mind Shares then owned by Jesper Limited at an exercise price of US$1.00 per each Modern Mind Share. The option granted hereby shall be irrevocable during the term of this Agreement and may be exercised by the Company or any of its designees. Prior to the Termination Date, Jesper Limited shall not sell, pledge, encumber in any way (other than pursuant to this Agreement) or otherwise transfer any interest in or to the Modern Mind Shares owned by it at any time.

Section 10.02. Release from Obligations. Upon full exercise of the option pursuant to Section 10.01, Jesper Limited is fully released from its obligations under this Agreement and any Demand Notes, including its obligations under Article XI.

Section 11.01. Guarantee. (a) Jesper Limited hereby fully and unconditionally guarantees the due and punctual payment of all amounts payable by Modern Mind under any Demand Notes, in each case when and as the same shall become due and payable, and in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Jesper Limited hereby expressly waives its right to require the Company to pursue or exhaust its legal or equitable remedies against Modern Mind prior to exercising its rights hereunder against Jesper Limited.

(b) Jesper Limited hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be as if it were principal debtor and not merely surety, and shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and unaffected by, any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of the Demand Notes or this Agreement, any failure to enforce the provisions of the Demand Notes or this Agreement, any waiver, modification or indulgence granted to Modern Mind with respect thereto by the Company, or any other circumstance which may otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor. Jesper Limited hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of merger or bankruptcy of Modern Mind, any right to require a proceeding first against Modern Mind, protest or notice with respect to any indebtedness evidenced thereby or hereby and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that the guarantee of Jesper Limited will not be discharged with respect to the Demand Notes or this Agreement except by payment in full of all amounts owing in respect thereof. If at any time any payment under the Demand Notes or under this Agreement is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Modern Mind, Jesper Limited’s obligations hereunder with respect to such payment shall be reinstated as of the date of such recission, restoration or return as though such payment had become due but had not been made at such time.

(c) The obligations of Jesper Limited under this section constitute a direct, senior, unsecured and unsubordinated obligation of Jesper Limited and ranks (i) pari passu in priority of payment, and in all other respects with all other senior, unsecured obligations of Jesper Limited and (ii) senior in priority of payment and in all other respects to all other indebtedness of Jesper Limited that is designated as subordinate or junior in right of payment to the guarantee.

Section 12.01. Pledge and Delivery of Modern Mind Shares. As security for the performance in full of the obligations of Modern Mind and Jesper Limited under this Agreement and any Demand Notes, Jesper Limited hereby delivers, pledges and assigns to the Company, and creates in favor of the Company, a first priority security interest in all of the right, title and interest in and to (i) all of the Modern Mind Shares that Jesper Limited holds, now and at any time in the future (the “Pledged Modern Mind Shares”), and (ii) all rights and privileges of Jesper Limited with respect to the Pledged Modern Mind Shares, now or hereinafter acquired, all proceeds, income and profits thereof and all property received in addition thereto, in exchange or substitution therefore. The Company shall hold the Pledged Modern Mind Shares as security for the Secured Obligations.

Section 12.02. Enforceability. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, or upon the occurrence of a default of Jesper Limited under Article XI, and at any time thereafter, the Company or its nominees may without further notice to Jesper Limited do all acts and things deemed necessary or reasonably required by the Company to procure in its absolute discretion that, to the extent permitted under applicable laws, the Pledged Modern Mind Shares are transferred into the name of the Company or its nominees.

Section 12.03. Discharge of the Pledged Modern Mind Shares. Where the Company is satisfied that all the Secured Obligations have been performed and discharged in full, the Company shall at the request of Jesper Limited release the Pledged Modern Mind Shares.

Section 12.04. Power of Attorney. Jesper Limited hereby irrevocably appoints the Company (or its designee), with full power of substitution by the Company (or its designee) as Jesper Limited’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact for the purposes of carrying out the provisions of this Article XII and taking any action and executing any instrument which the Company in good faith deems necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Article XII. The power of attorney granted pursuant to this Article XII and all authority hereby conferred are granted and conferred solely to protect the interest of the Company in the Pledged Modern Mind Shares and shall not impose any duty upon the Company to exercise any power. This power of attorney shall be unconditional and irrevocable and one coupled with an interest and will continue until all Secured Obligations are performed in full.

(c) The arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in English. The arbitration tribunal shall apply the Arbitration Rules of the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law, as in effect at the time of the arbitration.

Either party shall be entitled to seek preliminary injunctive relief, if possible, from any court of competent jurisdiction pending the constitution of the arbitral tribunal.

Section 13.03. Expenses. Jesper Limited and Modern Mind agree to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Company, including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, in connection with the Company’s administration and enforcement of any provisions, of this Agreement, the other Credit Documents or any amendment or supplement hereto or thereto.

Section 13.05. Termination Date. At any time when all amounts owing to the Company under the Demand Notes and the other Credit Documents have been paid in full or, in the case of amounts owing under the Demand Notes, converted into the Modern Mind Shares of Modern Mind, including all expenses to be paid by Jesper Limited and Modern Mind, this Agreement shall terminate on the date (the “Termination Date”) that is five Business Days after the date on which the Company receives notice from Jesper Limited or Modern Mind to the effect that Jesper Limited or Modern Mind wishes to terminate this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company’s covenant contained in Section 7.03 hereof shall survive the Termination Date.

Section 13.06. Cumulative Rights and No Waiver. Each and every right granted to the Company hereunder or under any other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, or allowed them by law or equity, shall be cumulative and may be exercised from time to time. No failure on the part of the Company to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise by the Company of any right preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.

Section 13.07. Notices. All notices or other communications required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing in English and Chinese and shall be deemed to have been fully given on the date delivered by hand or by courier service such as Federal Express, or by other messenger (or, if delivery is refused, upon presentment) or upon receipt by facsimile transmission (provided that the confirmation of such facsimile transmission is delivered by hand or certified mail to the addressee of the facsimile within five (5) days of the delivery of the facsimile), or upon delivery by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested), postage prepaid, to the parties as follows:

or to such other persons or addresses as the person to whom notice is given may have previously furnished in writing to the party giving such notice in the manner set forth above (provided that notice of any change of address shall be effective only upon receipt thereof).

Section 13.08. Separability. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any law, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 13.09. Assignments and Participations. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Jesper Limited, Modern Mind and the Company and their respective successors and assigns, except that neither Jesper Limited nor Modern Mind nor the Company may assign or participate any rights or obligations hereunder; provided, however, that the Company shall be permitted to assign any of its rights and obligations hereunder to any of its Affiliates.

Section 13.10. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by the parties on separate counterparts which, when taken together with counterparts signed by each of the other parties, shall constitute a single fully executed Agreement which shall be as fully binding and effective as if each party had executed a single signature page.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed as of the date first above written.
