A Global Certificate need not be security printed. Each tranche of the Bonds evidenced by a Global Certificate shall be subject to its terms in all respects and entitled to the same benefits under this Trust Deed as Bonds of the relevant tranche evidenced by individual definitive Certificates.

The Issuer may use the signature of any person who as at the date of this Trust Deed is an authorised officer or attorney, as the case maybe, of the Issuer even if at the time of issue of any definitive Certificate or the Global Certificate he no longer holds such office and the Bonds in respect of which the Global Certificate or a definitive Certificate is so executed and authenticated will be valid evidence of binding obligations of the Issuer.

3.4 Issue: Issue and delivery of each tranche of the Bonds shall be completed on the issue and delivery of the relevant Global Certificate to the common depositary referred to in Clause 3.1 (or its representative) by, or by the order of, the Issuer and completion of the Register by or on behalf of the Registrar.

3.5 Entitlement to treat holder as owner: The registered holder of any Bond will (save as otherwise required by law) be treated as its absolute owner for all purposes (whether or not it is overdue and regardless of any notice of ownership, trust or any interest in it or any writing on or the theft or loss of the Certificate issued in respect of it) and no person will be liable for so treating the holder.

3.6 Authentication: No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit under this Trust Deed or be valid for any purpose, unless and until authenticated by the manual signature of the Registrar. The Registrar’s authentication to be borne on the Certificates shall

9

be the certificate of authentication substantially as set out in the form of Schedule 2, and such certificate upon any Bond shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered thereunder.

4. STAMP DUTIES AND TAXES

The Issuer will pay any stamp, issue, registration, documentary, transfer or other taxes and duties, including interest and penalties, payable in respect of the creation, issue and offering of the Bonds, the execution or delivery of this Trust Deed and the deposit of Certificates for the conversion of Bonds and the issue and delivery of Shares following such deposit.

5.1 The Issuer covenants with the Trustee and the Security Agent that it will comply with and perform and observe all the provisions of these presents which are expressed to be binding on it. The Conditions shall be binding on the Issuer, the Trustee, the Security Agent and the Bondholders.

6.4 Offer: except expressly permitted under the Conditions, procure that no Shareholder, shall sell or agree to sell or grant any right in issued equity share capital of the Issuer;

10

6.6 Closing of Register of Members: unless so required by applicable law or regulation or in order to determine the entitlement of rights to a dividend or other rights attaching to the Shares or entitlements of the Shareholders, not close its Register of Members or take any other action which prevents the transfer of its Shares generally and ensure that the Bonds may be converted legally and the Shares issued on conversion may (subject to any limitation imposed by law) be transferred (as between transferor and transferee) at all times while the Register is closed or such other action is effective, nor take any action which prevents the conversion of the Bonds or the issue of Shares in respect of them;

6.7 Listing of Shares: (i) use its best endeavours to undertake and complete a listing for all the Shares issued on exercise of the Conversion Rights attached to the Tranche B Bonds on the Stock Exchange as a Complying IPO (as defined in Condition 8.1(b) of the Tranche B Conditions) within 12 months of the Issue Date and (ii) forthwith give notice to the Bondholders in accordance with Condition 19 of any such listing or delisting of Shares (as a class) by the Stock Exchange;

6.8 Expenses: pay the expenses of the issue of, and all expenses of obtaining and maintaining a listing for, Shares arising on conversion of the Tranche B Bonds.

For the above purposes, equity share capital means the share capital of a company excluding any part of that capital which, neither as respects dividends nor as respects capital, carries any right to participate beyond a specified amount in a distribution.

7. ENFORCEMENT

7.1 Each of the Trustee and the Security Agent may at any time, at its discretion and without notice, take such proceedings and/or other steps as it may think fit against or in relation to the Issuer to enforce its obligations under this Trust Deed, the Security Documents and the other Finance Documents (as the case may be). The Trustee may instruct the Security Agent to take such proceedings and/or other steps as it may think fit against or in relation to the Issuer to enforce its obligations under this Trust Deed, the Security Documents and the other Finance Documents (as the case maybe).

7.2 Proof that as regards any specified Bond the Issuer has made default in paying any amount due in respect of such Bond shall (unless the contrary be proved) be sufficient evidence that the same default has been made as regards all other Bonds in respect of which the relevant amount is due and payable.

7.3 The Bonds are, or will be, upon execution of the Security Documents and completion of all perfection requirements, secured by the Collateral granted under the Security Documents, each in favour of the Security Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

7.4 Neither the Trustee nor the Security Agent shall be responsible or liable in any manner whatsoever with respect to:

(a) any loss or theft or reduction in value of the Collateral, and shall not be obliged to insure the same, any certificate, note, Bonds or other evidence in respect thereof, or to require any other person to maintain any such insurance;

(b) the creation, perfection, legality and enforceability under applicable laws, or the sufficiency and/or maintenance of, any Security Documents, any Collateral or any agreement, assignment or other document relating thereto; and/or

11

(c) investigating or determining the creditworthiness of the Collateral, the Obligors or the validity of any of the obligations of any Obligor under the Security Documents or any of the terms of the Security Documents.

7.5 At any time after any security under the Security Documents shall have become enforceable, the Security Agent if (i) it shall have been directed by an Extraordinary Resolution of the Bondholders and (ii) it shall have been indemnified and/or secured to its satisfaction shall, and otherwise in its sole discretion may, enforce the security under the Security Documents. To enforce the security under the Security Documents, it may, following the security under the Security Documents becoming enforceable, at its discretion, take possession of all or part of the Collateral and may in its discretion sell, call in, collect and convert into money, all or part of the Collateral in such manner and on such terms as it shall think fit or do any of the following things subject to applicable law:

(a) manage and carry on the business and affairs of the Issuer or AST (HK) with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof as it thinks fit with power to appoint or dismiss managers, agents and employees;

(b) insure and protect the Collateral or any part thereof;

(c) settle, adjust, refer to arbitration, compromise or arrange all accounts, questions, disputes, claims and demands whatsoever in relation to the Collateral or any part thereof;

(d) execute and do contracts, deeds, documents and things and bring, defend or abandon actions, suits and proceedings in relation to the Collateral or any part thereof in the name of the Issuer or AST (HK);

(e) exercise or permit any other person to exercise any powers or rights incidental to the ownership of the Collateral or any part thereof;

(f) discharge the Collateral or any part thereof from any charge securing the Secured Liabilities (as defined in each Security Document) or release the Issuer or AST (HK) from any obligation where the Security Agent considers such release or discharge to be expedient and in the interests of the Secured Parties and on such terms and conditions as it thinks fit; and

(g) generally to do anything in relation to the Collateral or any part thereof as it could do if it were the absolute beneficial owner of the Collateral.

7.6 The Security Agent may in writing appoint a receiver or such other analogous entity under the applicable laws (the Receiver) of all or part of the Collateral and may remove any Receiver so appointed and appoint another in his place. No delay or waiver of the right to exercise these powers shall prejudice their future exercise. The following provisions subject to applicable laws shall have effect:

(a) such appointment may be made before or after the Security Agent shall have taken possession of all or part of the relevant Collateral;

(b) such Receiver may be vested by the Security Agent with such powers and discretions as the Security Agent may think expedient and may sell, concur in selling, assign or release any of the Collateral without restriction and on such terms as he may think fit, and may effect any such transaction in the name or on behalf of the Issuer or AST (HK) or otherwise;

(c) the Security Agent may from time to time fix such Receiver’s remuneration and direct its payment out of moneys accruing to it in the exercise of its powers as such Receiver. Nothing contained in this Trust Deed shall render either of the Trustee or the Security Agent or Bondholders liable to any such Receiver for its remuneration or any other costs and expenses;

12

(d) the Security Agent may from time to time and at any time require such Receiver to give security for the due performance of his duties as Receiver, and may fix the nature and amount of the security to be given. The Security Agent need not, however, in any case require any such security nor shall it be responsible for its adequacy or sufficiency,

(e) all moneys received by such Receiver shall be paid over to the Security Agent unless the Security Agent directs otherwise; and

(f) such Receiver shall be the Issuer’s agent for all purposes. The Issuer alone shall be responsible for its acts, omission, defaults and misconduct, and none of the Trustee, the Security Agent or the Bondholders shall incur any Liability or responsibility therefor provided however that the Receiver shall be liable to the Issuer for any loss or damage due to the Receiver’s fraud, wilful default or gross negligence.

7.7 The Issuer shall take such action and procure that the other Obligor take such action as the Security Agent may reasonably require (a) to perfect or protect the security created or intended to be created by or pursuant to this Trust Deed and the Security Documents and (b) at any time after the security constituted by or pursuant to this Trust Deed and the Security Documents shall have become enforceable, to facilitate the realisation of such security and the exercise of the functions of the Security Agent or any Receiver of any such security. The Security Agent accepts no responsibility for the perfection or protection of the security under the Security Documents.

7.8 Following the security under the Security Documents becoming enforceable hereunder:

(a) the Security Agent may raise and borrow money on the security of the Collateral or any part of it in order to defray moneys, costs, charges, losses and expenses paid or incurred by it in relation to this Trust Deed and the Security Documents (including the costs of realising any security and the remuneration of the Security Agent) or in exercise of its functions pursuant to this Trust Deed and the Security Documents (provided that the Bondholders shall have no Liability for any such borrowings); and

(b) the Security Agent may raise and borrow such money on such terms as it shall think fit and may secure its repayment with interest by pledging or otherwise charging all or part of the Collateral and generally in such manner and form as the Security Agent shall think fit, and for such purposes may take such action as it shall think fit (provided that the Bondholders shall have no Liability for any such borrowings).

7.9 The Issuer irrevocably appoints the Security Agent and every Receiver of the Collateral to be severally its attorney (with full power of substitution) on its behalf and in its name to do anything following enforcement of the Collateral under the Security Documents which the Issuer ought to do under this Trust Deed or the Security Documents and generally to exercise all or any of its functions. The Issuer agrees to, and hereby ratifies and confirms, whatever any such attorney shall do or purport to do in the exercise or purported exercise of such functions following the enforcement of security under the Security Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, this power of attorney will only be effective upon and following the occurrence of an Event of Default.

7.10 Neither the Security Agent nor any Bondholder, nor any such Receiver or any attorney or agent of the Security Agent shall by reason of taking possession of any the Collateral or any other reason and whether or not as pledgee or mortgagee in possession be liable to account for anything except actual receipts or be liable for any loss or damage arising from the realisation of the Collateral, or from any act, default or omission in relation to the Collateral or otherwise, unless such loss or damage shall be caused by its own wilful misconduct, gross negligence or fraud.

13

7.11 No one dealing with the Security Agent or any Receiver of the Collateral need enquire whether any of the powers, authorities and discretions conferred by or pursuant to this Trust Deed in relation to such assets are or may be exercisable by the Security Agent or such Receiver or as to the propriety or regularity of acts purporting or intended to be in the exercise of any such powers.

7.12 The security created under the Security Documents shall be discharged as soon as reasonably practicable on or after the date on which all of the obligations of the Security Parties have been fulfilled in full in accordance with the Conditions and the terms of this Trust Deed.

8. ACTION, PROCEEDINGS AND INDEMNIFICATION

8.1 Neither the Trustee nor the Security Agent shall be bound to take any proceeding or any other action in relation to the Finance Documents (including but not limited to the giving of any notice pursuant to Condition 12 or the taking of any proceedings and/or other steps mentioned in Clause 7) unless respectively directed or requested to do so by an Extraordinary Resolution and then only if it shall be indemnified and/or secured to its satisfaction against all Liabilities to which it may render itself liable or which it may incur by so doing.

8.2 Only the Trustee and/or the Security Agent may enforce the provisions of these presents and the Security Documents. No Bondholder shall be entitled to proceed directly against the Issuer to enforce the performance of any of the provisions of these presents unless the Trustee and/or the Security Agent having become bound as aforesaid to take proceedings fails to do so within a reasonable period and such failure is continuing.

9. NOTICE OF PAYMENTS

The Trustee shall give notice to the Bondholders in accordance with Condition 19 of the day fixed for any payment to them under Clause 11. Such payment may be made in accordance with Condition 9 and any payment so made shall be a good discharge to the Trustee.

10. PARTIAL PAYMENTS

Upon any payment under Clause 11 (other than payment in full against surrender of a Bond) the Bond in respect of which such payment is made shall be produced to the Trustee or the Principal Agent by or through whom such payment is made and the Trustee shall or shall cause such Principal Agent to enface thereon a memorandum of the amount and the date of payment but the Trustee may in any particular case dispense with such production and enfacement upon such indemnity being given as it shall think sufficient.

11. APPLICATION OF MONEYS RECEIVED BY THE TRUSTEE

11.1 Declaration of Trust: All moneys received by the Trustee or the Security Agent in respect of the Bonds or amounts payable under this Trust Deed or the Security Documents (including the proceeds of enforcement of the Collateral) will, despite any appropriation of all or part of them by the Issuer, be held by the Trustee or the Security Agent upon trust to apply them (subject to Clause 11.2):

(a) first, in payment of all costs, charges, expenses and liabilities incurred by the Trustee and/or any Appointee (as defined in Clause 14.23), the Security Agent, any Receiver appointed under the Security Documents and Agents (including remuneration payable to the Trustee and/or any Appointee, the Security Agent, any Receiver appointed under the Security Documents and Agents) in carrying out its functions under this Trust Deed, the Security Documents and the Agency Agreement (including any taxes and other amounts required to be paid and the costs of realising any Collateral, if applicable);

14

(b) secondly, in payment of any amounts of principal, interest, and premium (if any) owing in respect of the Bonds pari passu and rateably;

(c) thirdly, in payment of any other amounts owing in respect of the Bonds; and

(d) fourthly, in payment of any balance (if any) to the Issuer for itself.

If the Trustee holds any moneys which represent principal, interest or premium (if any) in respect of Bonds in respect of which claims have become prescribed under Condition 13, the Trustee will hold them on trust and apply them as set out in this Clause 11.1.

11.2 Accumulation: The Trustee may at its discretion and pending payment invest moneys at any time available for the payment of principal, premium (if any) and interest on the Bonds if the amount of such moneys is less than 10% of the principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding, in some or one of the investments hereinafter authorised for such periods as it may consider expedient with power from time to time at the like discretion to vary such investments and to accumulate such investments and the resulting interest and other income derived therefrom. The accumulated investments shall be applied under Clause 11.1. All interest and other income deriving from such investments shall be applied first in payment or satisfaction of all amounts then due and unpaid under Clause 13 to the Trustee and/or any Appointee and otherwise held for the benefit of and paid to the Bondholders.

11.3 Investment: Moneys held by the Trustee may be invested in its name or under its control in any investments or other assets anywhere whether or not they produce income or deposited in its name or under its control at such bank or other financial institution in such currency as the Trustee may, in its absolute discretion, think fit. If they are deposited at a bank or institution that is the Trustee or a subsidiary, holding or associated company of the Trustee, it needs only account for an amount of interest calculated at the rate per annum equal to the best rate payable by it on a deposit of like amount to an independent customer. The Trustee may at any time vary or transpose any such investments or assets or convert any moneys so deposited into any other currency, and will not be responsible for any resulting loss, whether by depreciation in value, change in exchange rates or otherwise.

14. PROVISIONS SUPPLEMENTAL TO THE TRUSTEE ACTS

Section 1 of the Trustee Act 2000 shall not apply to the duties of the Trustee or the Security Agent in relation to the trusts constituted by this Trust Deed. Where there are any inconsistencies between the Trustee Acts and the provisions of this Trust Deed, the provisions of this Trust Deed shall, to the extent allowed by law, prevail and, in the case of any such inconsistency with the Trustee Act 2000, the provisions of this Trust Deed shall constitute a restriction or exclusion for the purposes of that Act. The Trustee shall have all the powers conferred upon trustees by the Trustee Acts. In addition, both the Trustee and the Security Agent shall have the powers set out below.

14.1 Advice: Each of the Trustee and the Security Agent may act or rely on the opinion or advice of, or information or certificate or report obtained from, any lawyer, valuer, accountant (including the Auditors), banker or other expert whether obtained by or addressed to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Security Agent, the Principal Agent or otherwise, and notwithstanding any monetary or other limit on liability contained therein, will not be responsible to anyone for any Liability occasioned by so acting. Any such opinion, advice or information may be sent or obtained by letter, telex, fax or electronic mail and neither the Trustee nor the Security Agent will be liable to anyone for acting or relying in good faith on any opinion, advice or information purporting to be conveyed by such means, notwithstanding any limitation on liability (monetary or otherwise) in relation to such person’s opinion or advice and even if it contains some error or is not authentic.

14.2 Trustee to Assume Performance: Neither the Trustee nor the Security Agent need to notify anyone of the execution of this Trust Deed or any documents referred to in this Trust Deed or do anything to find out if an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default or IPO or Complying IPO has occurred. Until it has actual knowledge or express notice to the contrary, each of the Trustee and the Security Agent may assume that no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default or IPO or Complying IPO has occurred and that the Issuer is performing all its obligations under this Trust Deed, the Bonds, the Security Documents and the other Finance Documents and no event has happened as a consequence of which any of the Bonds may become repayable. Each of the Trustee and the Security Agent shall not be bound to take any steps to ascertain whether any event, condition or act, the happening of which would cause a right or remedy to become exercisable by the Trustee or, as the case may be, the

19

Security Agent under the Finance Documents has happened or to monitor or supervise the observance and performance by any Obligor of their respective obligations thereunder and, until it shall have express notice to the contrary and is indemnified and/or secured to its satisfaction, the Trustee and the Security Agent shall be entitled to assume that no such event, condition or act has happened and the Obligors and each of the other parties thereto are observing and performing all their respective obligations thereunder. The Trustee shall not be obliged to declare the Bonds immediately due and payable unless it has been indemnified and/or secured to its satisfaction in respect of the costs, claims and liabilities which it has incurred to that date and to which it may thereby and as a consequence thereof in its opinion render itself, or have rendered itself, liable.

14.4 Illegality/Expenditure of Trustee Funds: No provision of this Trust Deed or the Security Documents shall require the Trustee or the Security Agent to do anything which 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.

14.5 Officers’ Certificate: If the Trustee or the Security Agent, in the exercise of its functions under this Trust Deed or the Security Documents, requires to be satisfied or to have information as to any fact or the expediency of any act, it may call for and accept as sufficient evidence of that fact or the expediency of that act an Officers’ Certificate as to that fact or to the effect that, in their opinion, that act is expedient and neither the Trustee nor the Security Agent need to call for further evidence and will not be responsible for any loss occasioned by acting on such a certificate.

14.6 Deposit of Documents: Each of the Trustee and the Security Agent may appoint as custodian, on any terms, any bank or entity whose business includes the safe custody of documents or any lawyer or firm of lawyers believed by it to be of good repute and may deposit this Trust Deed, the Security Documents and any other documents with such custodian and pay all sums due in respect thereof. Neither the Trustee nor the Security Agent shall be responsible for or required to insure against any Liability incurred in connection with such deposit and may pay all sums required to be paid on account of, or in respect of, any such deposit. The Trustee and/or the Security Agents (as the case may be) shall not be responsible for any Liability incurred by reason of the misconduct, omission or default on the part of any custodian or nominee appointed by it in good faith hereunder and selected with due care or be bound to supervise the proceedings or acts of such person.

14.7 Discretion: Each of the Trustee and the Security Agent will have absolute and uncontrolled discretion as to the exercise or non-exercise of its trusts, powers, authorities and discretions under this Trust Deed (the exercise or non-exercise of which, as between the Bondholders, the Trustee and the Security Agent shall be conclusive and binding on the Bondholders) and will not be responsible for any Liability which may result from their exercise or non-exercise. Whenever in this Trust Deed, the Security Documents, the Agency Agreement or by law, the Trustee or the Security Agent shall have discretion or permissive power it may decline to exercise the same in the absence of approval by the Bondholders and need not exercise the same unless it has been indemnified and/or provided with security to its satisfaction.

20

14.36 Each of the Trustee and the Security Agent shall accept without investigation, requisition or objection such right, benefit, interest and title (if any) as the Issuer may have to the Collateral and shall not be bound or concerned to examine or enquire into or be liable for any defect or failure in the right or title of the Issuer to the Collateral whether such defect or failure was known to the Trustee or the Security Agent or might have been discovered upon examination or enquiry and whether capable of remedy or not.

The Trustee may (but is not obliged to) also agree with the Issuer without the

27

consent of the Bondholders to any modification to this Trust Deed or the Security Documents (other than the proviso to paragraph 18 of Schedule 3 or any matters referred to in that proviso) which is in its opinion proper to make if, in its opinion, such modification will not be materially prejudicial to the interests of the Bondholders. Any such modification shall be binding on the Bondholders and unless the Trustee agrees otherwise, shall be notified to the Bondholders as soon as practicable thereafter.

(b) Any modification or supplement to this Trust Deed shall be made by an instrument in writing signed by all the parties to this Trust Deed.

19.2 Retirement and Removal: Any Trustee may retire at any time on giving at least 60 days’ written notice to the Issuer without giving any reason and without being responsible for any costs occasioned by such retirement and the Bondholders may by an Extraordinary Resolution remove any Trustee provided that the retirement or removal of a sole trust corporation will not become effective until a trust corporation is appointed as successor Trustee. If a sole trust corporation gives notice of retirement or an Extraordinary Resolution is passed for its removal, the Issuer, will use all reasonable endeavours to procure that another trust corporation be appointed as Trustee as soon as practicable and if, after 30 days’ of such notice having been given or such Extraordinary Resolution having been passed, the Issuer has failed to do so, the Trustee shall be entitled (at the expense of the Issuer) but not obliged to appoint another trust corporation selected by the Trustee as its successor.

19.3 Co-Trustees: The Trustee may, despite Clause 19.1, by written notice to the Issuer appoint anyone to act as a separate Trustee or as a co-trustee jointly with the Trustee:

(a) if the Trustee considers such appointment to be in the interests of the Bondholders;

(b) to conform with any legal requirement, restriction or condition in a jurisdiction in which a particular act is to be performed; or

(c) to obtain a judgment or to enforce a judgment or any provision of this Trust Deed or the Security Documents in any jurisdiction.

The Issuer irrevocably appoints the Trustee to be its attorney in its name and on its behalf to execute any such instrument of appointment. Such a person shall (subject always to the provisions of this Trust Deed) have such trusts, powers, authorities and discretions (not exceeding those conferred on the Trustee by this Trust Deed) and such duties and obligations as shall be conferred or imposed by the instrument of appointment. The Trustee shall have power in like manner to remove any such person. Such reasonable remuneration as the Trustee may pay to any such person, together with any attributable Liabilities incurred by it in performing its function as such separate trustee or co-trustee, shall for the purposes of this Trust Deed be treated as Liabilities incurred by the Trustee.

28

19.4 Competence of a Majority of Trustees: If there are more than two Trustees the majority of them will be competent to perform the Trustee’s functions provided the majority includes a trust corporation.

19.5 Successor: Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor to the Trustee hereunder (provided it is a trust corporation) without the execution or filing of any papers or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto.

If the Security Agent gives notice of retirement or an Extraordinary Resolution is passed for its removal, the Issuer will use all reasonable endeavours to procure that a successor Security Agent be appointed as soon as practicable and if, after 30 days’ of such notice having been given or such Extraordinary Resolution having been passed, the Issuer has failed to do so, the Security Agent shall be entitled (at the expense of the Issuer) but not obliged to appoint another entity selected by the Security Agent as its successor. The protections, indemnities and immunities in this Trust Deed in favour of the Security Agent shall continue to benefit the Security Agent notwithstanding such Security Agent’s removal or retirement.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE BONDS

The following other than the words in italics is the text of the terms and conditions of the Bonds which will appear on the reverse of each of the Certificates evidencing the Bonds:

The issue of the Tranche A U.S.$20,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Floating Rate Secured Bonds due 2009 (the Bonds) of Asia Silicon Technology Holdings Inc. (the Issuer), and the creation of the Security (as defined in Condition 1.5), was authorised by a resolution of the board of directors of the Issuer passed on 5 September 2007. The Bonds are constituted by a trust deed dated 10 September 2007 (the Trust Deed) made between the Issuer, DB Trustees (Hong Kong) Limited as trustee for the holders of the Bonds (the Trustee, which term shall, where the context so permits, include all other persons or companies for the time being acting as trustee or trustees under the Trust Deed) and DB Trustees (Hong Kong) Limited as security agent for the Secured Parties (the Security Agent) and are subject to the paying and conversion agency agreement dated 10 September 2007 (the Agency Agreement) entered into between the Issuer, the Trustee, Deutsche Bank AG, Hong Kong Branch as principal paying, conversion and transfer agent (the Principal Agent) and Deutsche Bank Luxembourg S.A. as registrar (the Registrar) and the other paying, conversion and transfer agents appointed under it (each a Paying Agent, Conversion Agent, Transfer Agent and together with the Registrar and the Principal Agent, the Agents) relating to the Bonds. References to the Principal Agent, Registrar and Agents below are references to the principal agent, registrar and agents for the time being for the Bonds. The statements in these terms and conditions of the Bonds (these Conditions) include summaries of, and are subject to, the detailed provisions of the Trust Deed and the Agency Agreement. Unless otherwise defined, terms used in these Conditions have the meanings specified in the Trust Deed, the Security Agreement dated 10 September 2007 (the Issuer Security Agreement) between the Issuer and the Security Agent and the other Finance Documents (as defined in the Trust Deed) other than the Subscription Agreement. Copies of the Trust Deed, the Agency Agreement, the Issuer Security Agreement and the other Finance Documents are available for inspection during normal business hours at the registered office of the Trustee being as at the date hereof at 55th Floor, Cheung Kong Center, 2 Queen’s Road Central, Hong Kong and at the specified offices of each of the Agents. The Bondholders are bound by, and are deemed to have notice of, all the provisions of the Trust Deed, the Agency Agreement, the Issuer Security Agreement and the other Finance Documents applicable to them.

The owners shown in the records of Euroclear Bank, S.A./N.V., as operator of the Euroclear System (Euroclear), Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (Clearstream, Luxembourg) of book-entry interests in Bonds are entitled to the benefit of, and are bound by, and are deemed to have notice of, all the provisions of the Trust Deed and the Agency Agreement applicable to them.

1. Status and Security

1.1 Subject as provided in this Condition 1 and Condition 6, the Bonds constitute direct, unsubordinated, unconditional and secured obligations of the Issuer and shall at all times rank pari passu without any preference or priority among themselves.

1.2 The Issuer has credited to an account (the Interest Reserve Account) in the name of the Issuer with Deutsche Bank AG, Hong Kong Branch and more particularly described in the Issuer Security Agreement the sum of U.S.$4,200,000 out of the proceeds of the issue of the Bonds and the Tranche B Bonds. Pursuant to the Issuer Security Agreement, the Interest Reserve Account is charged to the Security Agent as security for all amounts payable on the Bonds and all other moneys payable by the Issuer or AST (HK) to the Secured Parties under the Trust Deed, the Issuer Security Agreement and the other Finance Documents. Pursuant to the Issuer Security Agreement, such moneys, once deposited, may only be withdrawn from the Interest Reserve Account by the Issuer and released from the security constituted by the Issuer Security Agreement in accordance with the Issuer Security Agreement. If and to the extent that such moneys are not released from the Interest Reserve Account as aforesaid by the Maturity Date (as defined in Condition 10.1), the Bondholders shall have the right to require such moneys to be applied in redeeming their Bonds pursuant to Condition 10.

37

1.3 The Issuer has credited to an account (the Escrow Account) in the name of the Issuer with Deutsche Bank AG, Hong Kong Branch and more particularly described in the Issuer Security Agreement the remainder of the proceeds of the issue of the Bonds and the Tranche B Bonds (after deducting the funds credited into the Interest Reserve Account). Pursuant to the Issuer Security Agreement, the Escrow Account is charged to the Security Agent as security for all amounts payable on the Bonds and all other moneys payable by the Issuer or AST (HK) under the Trust Deed, the Issuer Security Agreement and the other Finance Documents. Such moneys may only be withdrawn from the Escrow Account for the purposes set out in Condition 6.21(a)(ii) to 6.21(a)(v) and in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Issuer Security Agreement and subject to all of the conditions set forth in the Issuer Security Agreement being satisfied, provided that if and to the extent that such moneys standing to the credit of the Escrow Account are not so released from the Escrow Account by the Maturity Date (as defined in Condition 10.1), the Bondholders shall have the right to require such moneys to be applied in redeeming their Bonds pursuant to Condition 10.

1.4 The Bonds will have the benefit of the Security (as defined in Condition 1.5) as security for all amounts payable on the Bonds and all other moneys payable by the Issuer or AST (HK) to the Secured Parties under the Trust Deed, the Issuer Security Agreement and the other Finance Documents. On the Issue Date, the Issuer will (simultaneously with the issue of the Bonds) issue the Tranche B Bonds (as defined in the Trust Deed). The Tranche B Bonds will have the benefit of the same security as the Bonds, and the payment obligations of the Issuer under the Bonds shall at all times rank at least equally with its payment obligations under the Tranche B Bonds. The Security Agent or its nominee will hold the Security for the benefit of the Bondholders and the holders of the Tranche B Bonds pursuant to the provisions of the Trust Deed.

1.5 The security constituted by the Security Documents (the Security) shall become immediately enforceable if an Event of Default occurs, following which the Security Agent may, but shall not be bound (except as provided in Condition 15 and provided it has been indemnified and/or secured to its satisfaction) to take such proceedings or other action as it shall, in its discretion, think fit to enforce the Security (or any part thereof) and the provisions of the Trust Deed and the Security Documents. The Trust Deed and the Security Documents provide that the net proceeds resulting from the enforcement of the Security, after the remuneration of the Trustee and/or any Appointee, the Security Agent and any Receiver, and the Agents and all their respective costs, charges, liabilities and expenses and any taxes and other amounts required to be paid prior to any such application, be applied pro rata in meeting claims of any Bondholders or holders in respect of the Tranche B Bonds whose Bonds or, as the case may be, Tranche B Bonds are then outstanding.

2. Form and Denomination

The Bonds are issued in registered form in the denomination of U.S.$100,000 each and integral multiples of U.S.$1,000 (referred to as the principal amount of a Bond) in excess thereof (the authorised denomination). A Bond certificate (each a Certificate) will be issued to each Bondholder in respect of its registered holding of Bonds. Each Certificate will be numbered serially with an identifying number which will be recorded on the relevant Certificate and in the Register (as defined in Condition 4.1) which the Issuer will procure to be kept by the Registrar.

3. Title

Title to the Bonds passes only by registration in the Register (as defined in Condition 4.1). The holder of any Bond will (except as otherwise required by law) be treated as its absolute owner for all purposes (whether or not it is overdue and regardless of any notice of ownership, trust or any interest in it or any writing on, or the theft or loss of, the Certificate issued in respect of it) and no person will be liable for so treating the holder. In these Conditions Bondholder and (in relation to a Bond) holder mean the person in whose name a Bond is registered.

A Bond may be transferred by delivery of the Certificate issued in respect of that Bond, with the form of transfer on the back duly completed and signed by the holder or his attorney duly authorised in writing, to the specified office of the Registrar or any of the Agents.

(i) on each Interest Determination Date (as defined below), the Principal Agent or its duly appointed successor will determine the Screen Rate (as defined below) at approximately 11.00 a.m. (London time) on that Interest Determination Date. If the Screen Rate is unavailable, the Principal Agent will request the principal London office of each of the Reference Banks (as defined below) to provide the Principal Agent with the rate at which deposits in U.S. dollars are offered by it to prime banks in the London interbank market for three months at approximately 11.00 a.m. (London time) on the Interest Determination Date in question and for a Representative Amount (as defined below);

66

(ii) the Rate of Interest for the relevant Interest Period shall be the Screen Rate plus the Margin (as defined below) or, if the Screen Rate is unavailable, and if at least two of the Reference Banks which have been requested by the Principal Agent to provide such rates, provide such rates, the arithmetic mean (rounded if necessary to the fifth decimal place, with 0.000005 being rounded upwards) as established by the Principal Agent of such rates, plus the Margin;

(iii) if fewer than two rates are provided as requested, the Rate of Interest for that Interest Period will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted by major banks in London selected by the Principal Agent, at approximately 11.00 a.m. (London time) on the relevant Interest Determination Date for loans in U.S. dollars to prime banks in London for a period of three months commencing on the first day of such Interest Period and for a Representative Amount, plus the Margin. If the Rate of Interest cannot be determined in accordance with the above provisions, the Rate of Interest shall be determined as at the last preceding Interest Determination Date.

(iv) The Margin (the Margin) is (A) 3 per cent. per annum for the period from and including the Issue Date up to but excluding the Margin Step-up Date; and (B) 5 per cent. per annum from and including the Margin Step-up Date.

(v) In this Condition 7, (except where otherwise defined), the expression:

(A) Business Day means, in relation to any place, a day (other than a Saturday or Sunday) which is a day on which commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments and are open for general business (including dealing in foreign exchange and foreign currency deposits) in such place;

(B) Interest Determination Date means the second Business Day in London before the commencement of the Interest Period for which the rate will apply,

(C) Margin Step-up Date means the date falling 12 months from the Issue Date;

(D) Reference Banks means the principal London office of each of four major banks engaged in the London interbank market selected by the Payment Agent;

(E) Representative Amount means, in relation to any quotation of a rate for which a Representative Amount is relevant, an amount that is representative for a single transaction in the relevant market at 11:00 a.m. (local time); and

(F) Screen Rate means the rate for three month deposits in U.S. dollars which appears on the display designated as LIBOR01 on Reuters (or such replacement page on that service which displays the information, or such other service as may be nominated as the information vendor, for the purposes of displaying rates or prices comparable to that rate).

67

7.2 Determination of Interest Amount

The Principal Agent will, as soon as practicable after 11.00 a.m. (London time) on each Interest Determination Date, but in no event later than the third Business Day in Hong Kong thereafter, determine the U.S. dollar amount (the Interest Amount) payable in respect of interest on the principal amount of each Bond for the relevant Interest Period. The Interest Amount shall be determined by applying the Rate of Interest to the principal amount of a Bond, multiplying the sum by the actual number of days in the Interest Period concerned divided by 360 and rounding the resultant figure to the nearest cent (half a cent being rounded upwards).

7.3 Publication of Rate of Interest and Interest Amount

The Principal Agent shall cause the Rate of Interest and the Interest Amount for each Interest Period and the Interest Payment Date relating to such Interest Period to be notified to the Issuer, the Trustee (by no later than the first day of each Interest Period) and to be published in accordance with Condition 19 as soon as possible after their determination, and in no event later than the second Business Day in Hong Kong thereafter. The Interest Amount and Interest Payment Date may subsequently be amended (or appropriate alternative arrangements made by way of adjustment) without notice to the Bondholders in the event of an extension or shortening of the Interest Period.

7.4 Determination by the Trustee

If the Principal Agent defaults at any time in its obligation to determine the Rate of Interest and Interest Amount in accordance with the above provisions, the Trustee shall determine (a) the Rate of Interest at such rate as, in its absolute discretion (having such regard as it shall think fit to the procedure described above), it shall deem fair and reasonable in all the circumstances and (b) the Interest Amount in the manner provided in Condition 7.2 above, and all such determinations shall be deemed to be determinations by the Principal Agent.

7.5 Notifications, etc. to be Final

All notifications, opinions, determinations, certificates, calculations, quotations and decisions given, expressed, made or obtained for the purposes of the provisions of this Condition 7, whether by the Reference Banks (or any of them), the Principal Agent or the Trustee, will (in the absence of wilful default, bad faith or manifest error) be binding on the Issuer, the Trustee, the Agents and all Bondholders and (in the absence of wilful default, bad faith or manifest error) no liability to the Issuer or the Bondholders shall attach to the Reference Banks (or any of them), the Principal Agent or, if applicable, the Trustee in connection with the exercise or non-exercise by any of them of their powers, duties and discretions under this Condition 7.

7.6 Principal Agent

The Issuer shall procure that, so long as any of the Bonds remains outstanding, there is at all times a Principal Agent for the purposes of the Bonds and the Issuer may, subject to the prior written approval of the Trustee (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or refused), terminate the appointment of the Principal Agent. In the event of the appointed office of any bank being unable or unwilling to continue to act as the Principal Agent or failing duly to determine the Rate of Interest or the Interest Amount for any Interest Period, the Issuer shall, subject to the prior written approval of the Trustee (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or refused), appoint the London office of another major bank engaged in the London interbank market to act in its place. The Principal Agent may not resign its duties or be removed without a successor having been appointed.

68

7.7 Interest Accrual

(a) Each Bond will cease to bear interest (but without prejudice to the obligation of the Issuer to pay any accrued but unpaid interest), and shall be payable, (i) where a Complying IPO shall have occurred, from, and including, the IPO Date, or (ii) from, and including, the due date for redemption thereof unless, upon due presentation of the relevant Bond payment of principal and/or premium (if any) is improperly withheld or refused or unless default is otherwise made in respect of payment. In such event such Bond shall continue to bear interest as provided in the Trust Deed.

(b) If interest is required to be calculated for a period of less than one year (other than a full semi-annual period), it will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of 12 months of 30 days each and, in the case of an incomplete month, the number of days elapsed.

(b) If the Issuer gives a Tax Redemption Notice pursuant to Condition 10.2(a), each Bondholder will have the right to elect that its Bond(s) shall not be redeemed and that the provisions of Condition 11 shall not apply in respect of any payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest to be made in respect of such Bond(s) which falls due after the relevant Tax Redemption Date whereupon no additional amounts shall be payable in respect thereof pursuant to Condition 11 and payment of all amounts shall be made subject to the deduction or withholding of any tax required to be deducted or withheld (provided that such election shall only be in respect of the deduction or withholding then required to be made and the Issuer shall comply with the provisions of Condition 11 in respect of any further deductions or withholding). To exercise a right pursuant to this Condition 10.2, the holder of the relevant Bond must complete, sign and deposit at the specified office of any Paying Agent a duly completed and signed notice of exercise, in the form for the time being current, obtainable from the specified office of any Paying Agent together with the Certificate evidencing the Bonds on or before the day falling 10 days prior to the Tax Redemption Date.

(ii) it has used and retained that Tax Credit,

72

15.1 Meetings

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE BONDS

The following other than the words in italics is the text of the terms and conditions of the Bonds which will appear on the reverse of each of the Certificates evidencing the Bonds:

The issue of the Tranche B U.S.$40,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Floating Rate Secured Convertible Bonds due 2009 (the Bonds) of Asia Silicon Technology Holdings Inc. (the Issuer), and the creation of the Security (as defined in Condition 1.5), was authorised by a resolution of the board of directors of the Issuer passed on 5 September 2007. The Bonds are constituted by a trust deed dated 10 September 2007 (the Trust Deed) made between the Issuer, DB Trustees (Hong Kong) Limited as trustee for the holders of the Bonds (the Trustee, which term shall, where the context so permits, include all other persons or companies for the time being acting as trustee or trustees under the Trust Deed) and DB Trustees (Hong Kong) Limited as security agent for the Secured Parties (the Security Agent) and are subject to the paying and conversion agency agreement dated 10 September 2007 (the Agency Agreement) entered into between the Issuer, the Trustee, Deutsche Bank AG, Hong Kong Branch as principal paying, conversion and transfer agent (the Principal Agent) and Deutsche Bank Luxembourg S.A. as registrar (the Registrar) and the other paying, conversion and transfer agents appointed under it (each a Paying Agent, Conversion Agent, Transfer Agent and together with the Registrar and the Principal Agent, the Agents) relating to the Bonds. References to the Principal Agent, Registrar and Agents below are references to the principal agent, registrar and agents for the time being for the Bonds. The statements in these terms and conditions of the Bonds (these Conditions) include summaries of, and are subject to, the detailed provisions of the Trust Deed and the Agency Agreement. Unless otherwise defined, terms used in these Conditions have the meanings specified in the Trust Deed, the Security Agreement dated 10 September 2007 (the Issuer Security Agreement) between the Issuer and the Security Agent and the other Finance Documents (as defined in the Trust Deed) other than the Subscription Agreement. Copies of the Trust Deed, the Agency Agreement, the Issuer Security Agreement and the other Finance Documents are available for inspection during normal business hours at the registered office of the Trustee being as at the date hereof at 55th Floor, Cheung Kong Center, 2 Queen’s Road Central, Hong Kong and at the specified offices of each of the Agents. The Bondholders are bound by, and are deemed to have notice of, all the provisions of the Trust Deed, the Agency Agreement, the Issuer Security Agreement and the other Finance Documents applicable to them.

The owners shown in the records of Euroclear Bank, S.A./N. V., as operator of the Euroclear System (Euroclear), Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (Clearstream, Luxembourg) of book-entry interests in Bonds are entitled to the benefit of, and are bound by, and are deemed to have notice of, all the provisions of the Trust Deed and the Agency Agreement applicable to them.

1. Status and Security

1.1 Subject as provided in this Condition 1 and Condition 6, the Bonds constitute direct, unsubordinated, unconditional and secured obligations of the Issuer and shall at all times rank pari passu without any preference or priority among themselves.

1.2 The Issuer has credited to an account (the Interest Reserve Account) in the name of the Issuer with Deutsche Bank AG, Hong Kong Branch and more particularly described in the Issuer Security Agreement the sum of U.S.$4,200,000 out of the proceeds of the issue of the Bonds and the Tranche A Bonds. Pursuant to the Issuer Security Agreement, the Interest Reserve Account is charged to the Security Agent as security for all amounts payable on the Bonds and all other moneys payable by the Issuer or AST (HK) to the Secured Parties under the Trust Deed, the Issuer Security Agreement and the other Finance Documents. Pursuant to the Issuer Security Agreement, such moneys, once deposited, may only be withdrawn from the Interest Reserve Account by the Issuer and released from the security constituted by the Issuer Security Agreement in accordance with the Issuer Security Agreement. If and to the extent that such moneys are not released from the Interest Reserve Account as aforesaid by the Maturity Date (as defined in Condition 10.1), the Bondholders shall have the right to require such moneys to be applied in redeeming their Bonds pursuant to Condition 10.

87

1.3 The Issuer has credited to an account (the Escrow Account) in the name of the Issuer with Deutsche Bank AG, Hong Kong Branch and more particularly described in the Issuer Security Agreement the remainder of the proceeds of the issue of the Bonds and the Tranche A Bonds (after deducting the funds credited into the Interest Reserve Account). Pursuant to the Issuer Security Agreement, the Escrow Account is charged to the Security Agent as security for all amounts payable on the Bonds and all other moneys payable by the Issuer or AST (HK) under the Trust Deed, the Issuer Security Agreement and the other Finance Documents. Such moneys may only be withdrawn from the Escrow Account for the purposes set out in Condition 6.21(a)(ii) to 6.21(a)(v) and in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Issuer Security Agreement and subject to all of the conditions set forth in the Issuer Security Agreement being satisfied, provided that if and to the extent that such moneys standing to the credit of the Escrow Account are not so released from the Escrow Account by the Maturity Date (as defined in Condition 10.1), the Bondholders shall have the right to require such moneys to be applied in redeeming their Bonds pursuant to Condition 10.

1.4 The Bonds will have the benefit of the Security (as defined in Condition 1.5) as security for all amounts payable on the Bonds and all other moneys payable by the Issuer or AST (HK) to the Secured Parties under the Trust Deed, the Issuer Security Agreement and the other Finance Documents. On the Issue Date, the Issuer will (simultaneously with the issue of the Bonds) issue the Tranche A Bonds (as defined in the Trust Deed). The Tranche A Bonds will have the benefit of the same security as the Bonds, and the payment obligations of the Issuer under the Bonds shall at all times rank at least equally with its payment obligations under the Tranche A Bonds. The Security Agent or its nominee will hold the Security for the benefit of the Bondholders and the holders of the Tranche A Bonds pursuant to the provisions of the Trust Deed.

1.5 The security constituted by the Security Documents (the Security) shall become immediately enforceable if an Event of Default occurs, following which the Security Agent may, but shall not be bound (except as provided in Condition 15 and provided it has been indemnified and/or secured to its satisfaction) to take such proceedings or other action as it shall, in its discretion, think fit to enforce the Security (or any part thereof) and the provisions of the Trust Deed and the Security Documents. The Trust Deed and the Security Documents provide that the net proceeds resulting from the enforcement of the Security, after the remuneration of the Trustee and/or any Appointee, the Security Agent and any Receiver, and the Agents and all their respective costs, charges, liabilities and expenses and any taxes and other amounts required to be paid prior to any such application, be applied pro rata in meeting claims of any Bondholders or holders in respect of the Tranche A Bonds whose Bonds or, as the case maybe, Tranche A Bonds are then outstanding.

2. Form and Denomination

2.1 The Bonds are issued in registered form in the denomination of U.S.$100,000 each and integral multiples of U.S.$1,000 (referred to as the principal amount of a Bond) in excess thereof (the authorised denomination). A Bond certificate (each a Certificate) will be issued to each Bondholder in respect of its registered holding of Bonds. Each Certificate will be numbered serially with an identifying number which will be recorded on the relevant Certificate and in the Register (as defined in Condition 4.1) which the Issuer will procure to be kept by the Registrar.

2.2 Each Bond will entitle its registered holder, following the occurrence of a Complying IPO (as defined in Condition 8), to convert such Bond into Shares (as defined in Condition 8.1(d)) as described in Condition 8.

Pursuant to a registration rights agreement dated on or about the Issue Date between the Issuer, Mandra Materials Limited, Deutsche Bank AG and the Subsequent Shareholders named therein (the Registration Rights Agreement), the Issuer is

88

required to effect registration in respect of the Shares under the Securities Act (as defined in Condition 6.28) at the time and in a manner set out in the Registration Rights Agreement. The transferability of the Shares are subject to the restrictions set out in the Registration Rights Agreement and the Securities Act.

3. Title

Title to the Bonds passes only by registration in the Register (as defined in Condition 4.1). The holder of any Bond will (except as otherwise required by law) be treated as its absolute owner for all purposes (whether or not it is overdue and regardless of any notice of ownership, trust or any interest in it or any writing on, or the theft or loss of, the Certificate issued in respect of it) and no person will be liable for so treating the holder. In these Conditions Bondholder and (in relation to a Bond) holder mean the person in whose name a Bond is registered.

4.2 Transfer

Upon the terms of, and subject to, the Conditions and the terms of the Trust Deed and the Agency Agreement, a Bond may be transferred in whole or in part in the authorised denominations, provided that at the time of the transfer of that Bond, the holder of that Bond must also (i) transfer the Tranche A Bond held by it to the same transferee in the same proportion as that for the Bond (or any part of it) being transferred and (ii) assign to the transferee the rights of the holder of that Bond under the Registration Rights Agreement in respect of that Bond, and provided further that so long as no Event of Default is subsisting, a Bond may not be transferred, without the prior consent of the Issuer, to a person specified in a letter dated the Issue Date addressed by the Issuer to, and accepted by, the Manager in respect of this Condition 4.2. A Bond may be transferred by delivery of the Certificate issued in respect of that Bond, with the form of transfer on the back duly completed and signed by the holder or his attorney duly authorised in writing, to the specified office of the Registrar or any of the Agents.

(b) The rate of interest payable from time to time in respect of the Bonds (the Rate of Interest) will be determined on the basis of the following provisions:

(i) on each Interest Determination Date (as defined below), the Principal Agent or its duly appointed successor will determine the Screen Rate (as defined below) at approximately 11.00 a.m. (London time) on that Interest Determination Date. If the Screen Rate is unavailable, the Principal Agent will request the principal London office of each of the Reference Banks (as defined below) to provide the Principal Agent with the rate at which deposits in U.S. dollars are offered by it to prime banks in the London interbank market for three months at approximately 11.00 a.m. (London time) on the Interest Determination Date in question and for a Representative Amount (as defined below);

If the Rate of Interest cannot be determined in accordance with the above provisions, the Rate of Interest shall be determined as at the last preceding Interest Determination Date.

(iv) The Margin (the Margin) is (A) 3 per cent. per annum for the period from and including the Issue Date up to but excluding the Margin Step-up Date; and (B) 5 per cent. per annum from and including the Margin Step-up Date.

(C) Margin Step-up Date means the date falling 12 months from the Issue Date;

(D) Reference Banks means the principal London office of each of four major banks engaged in the London interbank market selected by the Payment Agent;

117

(E) Representative Amount means, in relation to any quotation of a rate for which a Representative Amount is relevant, an amount that is representative for a single transaction in the relevant market at 11:00 a.m. (local time); and

(F) Screen Rate means the rate for three month deposits in U.S. dollars which appears on the display designated as LIBOR01 on Reuters (or such replacement page on that service which displays the information, or such other service as may be nominated as the information vendor, for the purposes of displaying rates or prices comparable to that rate).

7.2 Determination of Interest Amount

The Principal Agent will, as soon as practicable after 11.00 a.m. (London time) on each Interest Determination Date, but in no event later than the third Business Day in Hong Kong thereafter, determine the U.S. dollar amount (the Interest Amount) payable in respect of interest on the principal amount of each Bond for the relevant Interest Period. The Interest Amount shall be determined by applying the Rate of Interest to the principal amount of a Bond, multiplying the sum by the actual number of days in the Interest Period concerned divided by 360 and rounding the resultant figure to the nearest cent (half a cent being rounded upwards).

7.3 Publication of Rate of Interest and Interest Amount

The Principal Agent shall cause the Rate of Interest and the Interest Amount for each Interest Period and the Interest Payment Date relating to such Interest Period to be notified to the Issuer, the Trustee (by no later than the first day of each Interest Period) and to be published in accordance with Condition 19 as soon as possible after their determination, and in no event later than the second Business Day in Hong Kong thereafter. The Interest Amount and Interest Payment Date may subsequently be amended (or appropriate alternative arrangements made by way of adjustment) without notice to the Bondholders in the event of an extension or shortening of the Interest Period.

7.4 Determination by the Trustee

If the Principal Agent defaults at any time in its obligation to determine the Rate of Interest and Interest Amount in accordance with the above provisions, the Trustee shall determine (a) the Rate of Interest at such rate as, in its absolute discretion (having such regard as it shall think fit to the procedure described above), it shall deem fair and reasonable in all the circumstances and (b) the Interest Amount in the manner provided in Condition 7.2 above, and all such determinations shall be deemed to be determinations by the Principal Agent.

7.6 Principal Agent

The Issuer shall procure that, so long as any of the Bonds remains outstanding, there is at all times a Principal Agent for the purposes of the Bonds and the Issuer may, subject to the prior written approval of the Trustee (such approval not to be

118

unreasonably withheld, delayed or refused), terminate the appointment of the Principal Agent. In the event of the appointed office of any bank being unable or unwilling to continue to act as the Principal Agent or failing duly to determine the Rate of Interest or the Interest Amount for any Interest Period, the Issuer shall, subject to the prior written approval of the Trustee (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or refused), appoint the London office of another major bank engaged in the London interbank market to act in its place. The Principal Agent may not resign its duties or be removed without a successor having been appointed.

7.7 Interest Accrual

(a) Each Bond will cease to bear interest (but without prejudice to the obligation of the Issuer to pay any accrued but unpaid interest), and shall be payable, (i) where a Complying IPO shall have occurred, from, and including, the IPO Date, or (ii) from, and including, the due date for redemption thereof unless, upon due presentation of the relevant Bond payment of principal and/or premium (if any) is improperly withheld or refused or unless default is otherwise made in respect of payment. In such event such Bond shall continue to bear interest as provided in the Trust Deed.

(b) If interest is required to be calculated for a period of less than one year (other than a full semi-annual period), it will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of 12 months of 30 days each and, in the case of an incomplete month, the number of days elapsed.

(ii) the aggregate amount of the capital raised in connection with the IPO will be equal to or greater than U.S.$150,000,000 (or its equivalent in any other currency as determined using a rate of exchange equal to the mid-exchange rate between U.S. dollars and the relevant currency quoted by Deutsche Bank AG, Hong Kong Branch or failing which any other bank of international repute selected by the Trustee at 11:00 a.m. (Hong Kong time) on the date on which the IPO price is determined).

8.2 Conversion Right

(a) Conversion Period: Subject as hereinafter provided, the Bondholders have the right to convert their Bonds into Shares on the IPO Date immediately prior to the occurrence of a Complying IPO.

The right of a Bondholder to convert any Bond into Shares is called the Conversion Right. Subject to, and upon compliance with, the provisions of this Condition and Condition 8.3, the Conversion Right attaching to any Bond will be deemed to have been exercised by the holder thereof, on the last day of the Conversion Period, unless that holder has at any time during the Conversion Period issued a Non-exercise Notice (as defined in Condition 8.3(a)) in accordance with that Condition.

(b) Number of Shares to be converted: The number of Shares to be issued on conversion of a Bond will be determined by the following formula:

  A x B x C  

      D

120

Where:

A is

(i) (A) during the period from (and including) the Issue Date to (but excluding) 1 October 2008, 2.732 % and (B) during the period from 1 October 2008 to the Maturity Date (both dates inclusive), 3%; or

(ii) if the EB Funding Date occurs within one month from the Issue Date, 2.232%;

B is the total number of Shares in issue immediately before completion of the Complying IPO (excluding any Shares converted pursuant to the exercise of the Conversion Right);

C is the face value of the relevant converting Bond;

D is the aggregate face value of all Bonds outstanding immediately before conversion at the Complying IPO;

If the number of Shares to be issued per Bond as determined by the formula above is not a whole number, it will be rounded up to the nearest whole number.

(c) Strike Adjustment: If the Market Capitalisation at the Complying IPO is less than the Original Valuation, in addition to the Shares issued pursuant to paragraph (a) above, the Issuer must, on the IPO Date, pay to the Bondholder of each Bond who has exercised the Conversion Right in relation to that Bond an amount calculated in accordance with this paragraph. The amount payable for each converted Bond under this paragraph will be determined by the following formula:

  (X-Y) x A x C   

D

Where:

A is

(i) (A) during the period from (and including) the Issue Date to (but excluding) 1 October 2008, 2.732 % and (B) during the period from the date falling 1 October 2008 to the Maturity Date (both dates inclusive), 3%; or

(ii) if the EB Funding Date occurs within one month of the Issue Date, 2.232%;

Market Capitalisation will be determined by the following formula:

B x Z

B is the number of Shares in issue immediately before completion of the Complying IPO (excluding any Shares converted pursuant to the exercise of the Conversion Right); and

Z is the issue price per Share at the Complying IPO (or, if not in U.S. dollars, its equivalent in U.S. dollars as determined using a rate of exchange equal to the mid-exchange rate between the relevant currency and U.S. dollars quoted by Deutsche Bank AG, Hong Kong Branch or failing which any other bank of international repute selected by the Trustee at 11:00 a.m. (Hong Kong time) on the date on which the IPO price is determined).

If the amount as determined by the formula above is not a whole U.S. dollar, it will be rounded up to the nearest whole U.S. dollar.

(d) Conversion of more than one Bond: The Conversion Right may be only be exercised in respect of one or more Bonds. If more than one Bond held by the same holder is converted at any one time by the same holder, the number of Shares to be issued upon such conversion will be calculated on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds to be converted.

(e) Fractions of Shares: Fractions of Shares will not be issued on conversion and no cash adjustments will be made in respect thereof.

(f) Revival and/or survival after Default: Notwithstanding the provisions of Condition 8.2(a), if any Bond has become due and payable prior to the Maturity Date by reason of the occurrence of any of the events under Condition 12, the Conversion Right attaching to such Bond will revive and/or will continue to be exercisable up to, and including, the close of business (at the place where the Certificate evidencing such Bond is deposited for conversion) on the earlier of (i) the date upon which the full amount of the moneys payable in respect of such Bond has been duly received by the Principal Agent or the Trustee and notice of such receipt has been duly given to the Bondholders and (ii) the date falling two business days prior to the Maturity Date and, notwithstanding the provisions of Condition 8.2(a), any Bond in respect of which the Certificate and Conversion Notice (as defined in Condition 8.3) are deposited for conversion prior to such date shall be exchanged on the relevant Conversion Date (as defined in Condition 8.3(a)) notwithstanding that the full amount of the moneys payable in respect of such Bond shall have been received by the Principal Agent or the Trustee before such Conversion Date.

8.3 Conversion Procedure

(a) Deemed exercise of Conversion Right: To elect not to exercise the Conversion Right attaching to any Bond, the holder thereof must complete, execute and deposit at its own expense during business hours at the specified office of any Conversion Agent a notice of non-exercise (a Non-exercise Notice) in duplicate in the form (for the time being current) obtainable from the specified office of each Agent, during the Conversion Period (as defined in Condition 8.2(a)). On the last day of the Conversion Period, in relation to any Bond, unless the holder thereof has elected not to exercise the Conversion Right attaching to that Bond under this paragraph (a), that holder shall be deemed to have exercised its Conversion Rights in relation to that Bond.

122

(b) Conversion Notice: Each Bondholder who is deemed under paragraph (a) above to have exercised its Conversion Right may complete, execute and deposit at its own expense during business hours at the specified office of any Conversion Agent a notice specifying the name and address of the person in whose name the Shares issuable upon conversion are to be registered and giving other details in respect of the conversion (a Conversion Notice) in duplicate in the form (for the time being current) obtainable from the specified office of each Agent not later than two business days prior to the Conversion Date. If a converting Bondholder fails to deliver a Conversion Notice, the Bonds held by that Bondholder will nevertheless be converted in accordance with Condition 8.2(a). In that case the Shares will be issued in the name of that Bondholder and the certificate or certificates representing such Shares shall be mailed to that Bondholder at its address specified in the Register.

The conversion date in respect of a Bond (the Conversion Date) shall be the IPO Date. A Conversion Notice once delivered shall be irrevocable and may not be withdrawn unless the Issuer consents in writing to such withdrawal (and notified the Trustee and the Agents of such consent).

(c) Stamp Duty etc.: The Issuer must pay any taxes and capital, stamp, issue and registration duties arising on conversion (the Conversion Taxes) and the Issuer must also pay all, if any, taxes arising by reference to any disposal or deemed disposal of a Bond in connection with such conversion and all other expenses arising on the issue of Shares on conversion. The Conversion Agent is under no obligation to determine whether the Issuer is liable to pay any Conversion Taxes including capital, stamp, issue, registration or similar taxes and duties or the amounts payable (if any) in connection with this Condition 8.3(c).

(d) Registration: On the Conversion Date, the Issuer will, in the case of Bonds converted on exercise of the Conversion Right, register the person or persons designated for the purpose in the Conversion Notice as holder(s) of the relevant number of Shares in the Issuer’s share register or, if no Conversion Notice is delivered, register the converting Bondholder as holders of the relevant number of Shares in the Issuer’s share register and will, if the Bondholder has also requested in the Conversion Notice, take all necessary actions to procure that Shares are delivered through the relevant clearing and settlement system (if any) if and for so long as the Shares are listed on a Stock Exchange; or will make the certificate or certificates representing such Shares available for collection at the office of the Issuer’s then share registrar notified to Bondholders in accordance with Condition 19 or, if so requested in the relevant Conversion Notice, will cause its share registrar to mail (at the risk, and, if sent at the request of such person otherwise than by ordinary mail, at the expense, of the person to whom such certificate or certificates are sent) such certificate or certificates to the person and at the place specified in the Conversion Notice, together (in either case) with any other securities, property or cash required to be delivered upon conversion and such assignments and other documents (if any) as may be required by law to effect the transfer thereof, in which case a single certificate will be issued in respect of all Shares issued on conversion of Bonds subject to the same Conversion Notice and which are to be registered in the same name.

The person or persons specified for that purpose will become the holder of record of the number of Shares issuable upon conversion with effect from the date he is or they are registered as such in the Issuer’s register of members (the Registration Date). The Shares issued upon conversion of the Bonds will in all respects rank pari passu with the Shares in issue on the relevant Registration Date. Save as set out in these Conditions, a holder of Shares issued on conversion of Bonds shall not be entitled to any rights the record date for which precedes the relevant Registration Date. Upon delivery of the Shares to a Bondholder in satisfaction of the Conversion Right of any converting Bondholder and the completion of such registration in accordance with this Condition 8.3, the right of such converting Bondholder to repayment of the principal amount of the Bonds so converted shall be extinguished.

123

(e) Interest Accrual: On the Conversion Date, the Issuer shall pay to each Bondholder (i) any interest otherwise accruing on converted Bonds since the Interest Payment Date last preceding the Conversion Date, and (ii) Break Cost (as defined in the Trust Deed).

(f) Equivalent Amounts: If the record date for the payment of any dividend or other distribution in respect of the Shares is on or after the Conversion Date in respect of any Bond, but before the Registration Date, the Issuer will pay to the Bondholder or his designee an amount (the Equivalent Amount) equal to any such dividend or other distribution to which he would have been entitled had he on that record date been such a shareholder of record and will make the payment at the same time as it makes payment of the dividend or other distribution, or as soon as practicable thereafter, but, in any event, not later than seven days thereafter. The Equivalent Amount shall be paid by means of a U.S. dollar cheque drawn on a bank in New York City and sent to the address specified in the relevant Conversion Notice or to the relevant Bondholder if no Conversion Notice has been delivered.

8.4 Undertakings

The Issuer has given certain other undertakings in the Trust Deed for the protection of the Conversion Right.

SCHEDULE 3

PROVISIONS FOR MEETINGS OF BONDHOLDERS

2. A holder of a Bond may by an instrument in writing (a form of proxy) in the form available from the specified office of any Agent in English signed by the holder or, in the case of a corporation, executed under its common seal or signed on its behalf by an attorney or a duly authorised officer of the corporation and delivered to the Agent not later than 48 hours before the time fixed for any meeting, appoint any person (a proxy) to act on his or its behalf in connection with any meeting or proposed meeting of Bondholders.

3. A holder of a Bond which is a corporation may by delivering to any Agent not later than 48 hours before the time fixed for any meeting a resolution of its directors or other governing body in English authorise any person to act as its representative (a representative) in connection with any meeting or proposed meeting of Bondholders.

4. A proxy or representative so appointed shall so long as such appointment remains in force be deemed, for all purposes in connection with any meeting or proposed meeting of Bondholders specified in such appointment, to be the holder of the Bonds to which such appointment relates and the holder of the Bond shall be deemed for such purposes not to be the holder.

5. Each of the Issuer and the Trustee may at any time convene a meeting of Bondholders. If the Trustee receives a written request by Bondholders holding at least 10 per cent. in principal amount of the Bonds for the time being outstanding and is indemnified to its satisfaction against all costs and expenses, the Trustee shall convene a meeting of Bondholders. Every meeting shall be held at a time and place approved by the Trustee.

6. At least 14 business days’ (as defined in Clause 21) notice (exclusive of the day on which the notice is given and of the day of the meeting) shall be given to the Bondholders to convene a meeting of Bondholders. A copy of the notice shall be given by the party convening the meeting to the other parties. The notice shall specify the day, time and place of meeting, be given in the manner provided in the Conditions and shall specify, unless the Trustee otherwise agrees, the nature of the resolutions to be proposed and shall include a statement to the effect that the holders of Bonds may appoint proxies by executing and delivering a form of proxy in English to the specified office of an Agent not later than 48 hours before the time fixed for the meeting or, in the case of corporations, may appoint representatives by resolution in English of their directors or other governing body and by delivering an executed copy of such resolution to the Agent not later than 48 hours before the time fixed for the meeting.

7. A person (who may, but need not, be a Bondholder) nominated in writing by the Trustee may act as chairman of a meeting but if no such nomination is made or if the person nominated is not present within 15 minutes after the time fixed for the meeting the Bondholders present shall choose one of their number to be chairman, failing which, the Issuer may appoint the chairman. The chairman of an adjourned meeting need not be the same person as was chairman of the original meeting.

8. At a meeting one or more persons present in person holding Bonds or being proxies or representatives and holding or representing in the aggregate not less than 10 per cent. in principal amount of the Bonds for the time being outstanding shall (except for the purpose of passing an Extraordinary Resolution) form a quorum for the transaction of business and no business (other than the choosing of a chairman) shall be transacted unless the requisite quorum be present at the commencement of business. The quorum at a meeting for passing an Extraordinary Resolution shall (subject as provided below) be one or more persons present in person holding Bonds or being proxies or representatives and holding or representing in the aggregate over 50 per cent. in principal amount of the Bonds for the time being outstanding provided that the quorum at any meeting the

154

business of which includes any of the matters specified in the proviso to paragraph 18 shall be two or more persons so present holding Bonds or being proxies or representatives and holding or representing in the aggregate not less than 66 per cent, in principal amount of the Bonds for the time being outstanding.

9. If within 15 minutes from the time fixed for a meeting a quorum is not present the meeting shall, if convened upon the requisition of Bondholders or if the Issuer and the Trustee agree, be dissolved. In any other case it shall stand adjourned to such date, not less than 14 nor more than 42 days later, and to such place as the chairman may decide. At such adjourned meeting one or more persons present in person holding Bonds or being proxies or representatives (whatever the principal amount of the Bonds so held or represented) shall form a quorum and may pass any resolution and decide upon all matters which could properly have been dealt with at the meeting from which the adjournment took place had a quorum been present at such meeting provided that at any adjourned meeting at which is to be proposed an Extraordinary Resolution for the purpose of effecting any of the modifications specified in the proviso to paragraph the quorum shall be one or more persons so present holding Bonds or being proxies or representatives and holding or representing in the aggregate not less than 33 per cent, in principal amount of the Bonds for the time being outstanding.

10. The chairman may with the consent of (and shall if directed by) a meeting adjourn the meeting from time to time and from place to place but no business shall be transacted at an adjourned meeting which might not lawfully have been transacted at the meeting from which the adjournment took place.

11. At least 10 days’ notice of any meeting adjourned through want of a quorum shall be given in the same manner as for an original meeting and such notice shall state the quorum required at the adjourned meeting. No notice need, however, otherwise be given of an adjourned meeting.

12. Each question submitted to a meeting shall be decided in the first instance by a show of hands and in case of equality of votes the chairman shall both on a show of hands and on a poll have a casting vote in addition to the vote or votes (if any) which he may have as a Bondholder or as a holder of a voting certificate or as a proxy or representative.

13. Unless a poll is (before or on the declaration of the result of the show of hands) demanded at a meeting by the chairman, the Issuer, the Trustee or by one or more persons holding one or more Bonds or being proxies or representatives and holding or representing in the aggregate not less than two per cent, in principal amount of the Bonds for the time being outstanding, a declaration by the chairman that a resolution has been carried or carried by a particular majority or lost or not carried by a particular majority shall be conclusive evidence of the fact without proof of the number or proportion of the votes recorded in favour of or against such resolution.

14. If a poll is demanded, it shall be taken in such manner and (subject as provided below) either at once or after such an adjournment as the chairman directs and the result of such poll shall be deemed to be the resolution of the meeting at which the poll was demanded as at the date of the taking of the poll. The demand for a poll shall not prevent the continuation of the meeting for the transaction of any business other than the question on which the poll has been demanded.

15. A poll demanded on the election of a chairman or on any question of adjournment shall be taken at the meeting without adjournment.

16. The Issuer and the Trustee (through their respective representatives) and their respective financial and legal advisers may attend and speak at any meeting of Bondholders. No one else may attend or speak at a meeting of Bondholders unless he is the holder of a Bond or is a proxy or a representative.

155

17. On a show of hands every holder who is present in person or any person who is present and is a proxy or a representative shall have one vote and on a poll every person who is so present shall have one vote in respect of each U.S.$100,000 in principal amount of the Bonds produced or in respect of which he is a proxy or a representative. Without prejudice to the obligations of proxies, a person entitled to more than one vote need not use them all or cast them all in the same way.

18. A proxy need not be a Bondholder.

19. A meeting of Bondholders shall, subject to the Conditions, in addition to the powers given above, but without prejudice to any powers conferred on other persons by this Trust Deed, have power exercisable by Extraordinary Resolution:

19.1 to sanction any proposal by the Issuer for any modification, abrogation, variation or compromise of, or arrangement in respect of, the rights of the Bondholders against the Issuer and/or the Security for the Bonds whether or not such rights arise under this Trust Deed and/or the Security Documents;

19.2 to sanction the exchange or substitution for the Bonds of, or the conversion of the Bonds into, shares, bonds, or other obligations or securities of the Issuer or any other entity,

19.3 to assent to any modification of this Trust Deed, the Security Documents or the Bonds or the Security which shall be proposed by the Issuer or the Trustee;

19.4 to authorise anyone to concur in and do anything necessary to carry out and give effect to an Extraordinary Resolution;

19.5 to give any authority, direction or sanction required to be given by Extraordinary Resolution;

19.6 to appoint any persons (whether Bondholders or not) as a committee or committees to represent the interests of the Bondholders and to confer on them any powers or discretions which the Bondholders could themselves exercise by Extraordinary Resolution;

19.7 to approve the substitution of any entity for the Issuer (or any previous substitute) as principal debtor under this Trust Deed;

19.8 to approve a proposed new Trustee and to remove a Trustee; and

19.9 to discharge or exonerate the Trustee from any liability in respect of any act or omission for which it may become responsible under this Trust Deed or the Bonds,

provided that the special quorum provisions contained in the proviso to paragraph 8 and, in the case of an adjourned meeting, in the proviso to paragraph 9 shall apply for the purpose of making any modification to the provisions contained in this Trust Deed or the Bonds which would have the effect of:

18.9.1 modifying the due date for any payment in respect of the Bonds; or

18.9.2 reducing or cancelling the amount of principal, premium or interest or Equivalent Amount payable in respect of the Bonds; or

18.9.3 changing the currency of payment of the Bonds; or

18.9.4 modifying or cancelling the Conversion Rights or the security constituted by the Security Documents; or

156

18.9.5 modifying the provisions contained in this Schedule concerning the quorum required at a meeting of Bondholders or the majority required to pass an Extraordinary Resolution or sign a resolution in writing; or

18.9.6 amending this proviso.

20. An Extraordinary Resolution passed at a meeting of Bondholders duly convened and held in accordance with this Trust Deed shall be binding on all the Bondholders, whether or not present at the meeting, and each of them shall be bound to give effect to it accordingly. The passing of such a resolution shall be conclusive evidence that the circumstances of such resolution justify the passing of it.

21. The expression Extraordinary Resolution means a resolution passed at a meeting of Bondholders duly convened and held in accordance with these provisions by a majority consisting of not less than 66 ²/3 per cent. in principal amount of the Bonds for the time being outstanding.

22. A resolution in writing signed by or on behalf of the holders of not less than 66 ²/3 per cent. in principal amount of the Bonds who for the time being are entitled to receive notice of a meeting in accordance with these provisions shall for all purposes be as valid as an Extraordinary Resolution passed at a meeting of Bondholders convened and held in accordance with these provisions. Such resolution in writing may be in one document or several documents in like form each signed by or on behalf of one or more of the Bondholders.

23. Minutes shall be made of all resolutions and proceedings at every meeting and, if purporting to be signed by the chairman of that meeting or of the next succeeding meeting of Bondholders, shall be conclusive evidence of the matters in them. Until the contrary is proved every meeting for which minutes have been so made and signed shall be deemed to have been duly convened and held and all resolutions passed or proceedings transacted at it to have been duly passed and transacted.

24. If and whenever the Issuer has issued and has outstanding Bonds of more than one tranches the foregoing provisions of this Schedule shall have effect subject to the following modifications:

24.1 a resolution which in the opinion of the Trustee affects Bonds of only one tranche shall be deemed to have been duly passed if passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the Bonds of that tranche;

24.2 a resolution which in the opinion of the Trustee affects the Bonds of more than one tranches but does not give rise to a conflict of interest between the holders of Bonds of any of the tranches so affected shall be deemed to have been duly passed if passed at a single meeting of the holders of the Bonds of all the tranches so affected;

24.3 a resolution which in the opinion of the Trustee affects the Bonds of more than one tranches and gives or may give rise to a conflict of interest between the holders of the Bonds of one tranche or group of tranches so affected and the holders of the Bonds of another tranche or group of tranches so affected shall be deemed to have been duly passed only if passed at separate meetings of the holders of the Bonds of each tranche or group of tranches so affected; and

24.4 to all such meetings all the preceding provisions of this Schedule shall mutatis mutandis apply as though references therein to Bonds and holders were references to the Bonds of the tranche or group of tranches in question or to the holders of such Bonds, as the case maybe.

25. Subject to all other provisions contained in this Trust Deed the Trustee may without the consent of the Bondholders prescribe such further regulations regarding the holding of meetings and attendance and voting at them or regarding the making of

157

resolutions in writing as the Trustee may in its sole discretion determine including (without limitation) such regulations and requirements as the Trustee thinks reasonable to satisfy itself that persons who purport to make any requisition in accordance with this Trust Deed are entitled to do so and that those who purport to attend or vote at a meeting or to sign a written resolution are entitled to do so.
