Settlement Agreements and Warrant Extensions

China Broadband, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) previously reported entering into a Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) dated as of January 11, 2008, by and among the Company, its subsidiary, China Broadband Ltd., certain executives of the Company and entities affiliated with them, and certain consultants to the Company. (See Current Report on Form 8-K, dated January 11, 2008).

Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, and among other provisions, the Company agreed to extend the expiration dates of Redeemable Common Stock Purchase Warrants to purchase 4,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) at an exercise price of $2.00 per share (the “Warrants”), issued to certain private placement investors (“Warrant Holders”) in the Company’s private placement in 2007, from March of 2009, through January 11, 2013, upon receipt and acceptance of Subscription and Release Agreements (the “Releases”) from such Warrant Holders. The Company received and accepted all Releases and entered into Warrant Amendments (the “Warrant Amendments”) with all of the Warrant Holders as of May 2, 2008, extending the exercise period thereon through January 11, 2013. In addition to the foregoing, the Company obtained the releases from all other stockholders who received shares as a result of their investment in private convertible note bridge financing of China Broadband, Ltd. in September 2006.

The Company believes that the offering and issuance of the Warrant Amendments was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) pursuant to, among other exemptions, Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act and Section 4(1) of the Securities Act, in that the offer was made on a private basis to a limited number of persons, all of whom were existing stockholders of the Company who represented that they are “accredited investors”, as such term is defined under Rule 501 of the Securities Act.

The foregoing description is a summary only of the Releases and the Warrant Amendments and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full Releases and Warrant Amendments filed as exhibits to this report.

BACKGROUND

As a result of a series of negotiations on behalf of the Company, its principals and advisors, a series of events have occurred which are more fully described in a Confidential Investor Update (the “Investor Letter”), dated as of January 31, 2008 and in various Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As a result of the foregoing, the Company has agreed to a modification of your Warrant so as to extend the expiration date of your warrant from March 24, 2009, the current expiration date, to January 11, 2013, the Closing date of a recent convertible Note Financing, in return for the release by you of any claims relating to the Company, its management and certain affiliates and consultants. A copy of the form of Warrant Amendment is annexed hereto as Exhibit A (the “Warrant Amendment”). You should not complete or execute this Agreement without first carefully reviewing this Agreement and all of the reports of the Company filed via EDGAR with the Securities and Exchange Commission to date (the “Reports”) the provisions of which (including, without limitation, risks and disclosure relating to forward looking statements) are incorporated herein.

The Warrant Amendment described below is being offered for sale pursuant to an exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and in particular, Regulation D. The term “Securities” shall be deemed to include both the Warrant Amendment and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant.

Accordingly, each Investor hereby represents, warrants and covenants with the Company as follows:

3.1 Accredited Investor. The Investor is either an “Accredited Investor”, as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Securities Act.

3.2 Legal Power. Each Investor has the requisite individual, corporate, partnership, limited liability company, trust, or fiduciary power, as appropriate, and is authorized, if such Investor is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, or trust, to enter into this Agreement, to grant the releases sought herein and to acquire and accept the Warrant Amendment, and to carry out and perform its obligations under this Agreement.

3.2 Due Execution.

Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigation conducted by Investor or any of its advisors or representatives shall modify, amend or affect Investor’s right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained herein.
 
- 2 -

 
3.4 Restricted Securities.

3.4.1 Each Investor has been advised that the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act or any other applicable securities laws and that Warrant Amendment (and, upon exercise of the Warrant as so amended, the shares underlying the Warrants) is being offered and sold pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D thereunder, and that the Company’s reliance upon Section 4(2) and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D is predicated in part on such Investor representations as contained herein. Each Investor acknowledges that the Securities will be issued as “restricted securities” as defined by Rule 144 promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act. None of the Securities may be resold in the absence of an effective registration thereof under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws unless, in the opinion of the Company’s counsel, an applicable exemption from registration is available.

3.4.2 Each Investor represents that such Investor is acquiring the Securities for such Investor’s own account, and not as nominee or agent, for investment purposes only and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, a distribution, as that term is used in Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, in a manner which would require registration under the Securities Act or any state securities laws.

3.4.3 Each Investor understands and acknowledges that the Warrant Amendment when issued and, upon exercise of the Warrants the Warrant Shares, will bear substantially the following legend:

THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED FOR VALUE IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION THEREOF UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 AND/OR THE SECURITIES ACT OF ANY STATE HAVING JURISDICTION OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE CORPORATION THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SUCH ACT OR ACTS.

3.4.4 Each Investor acknowledges that an investment in the Securities is not liquid and is transferable only under limited conditions. Each Investor acknowledges that such securities must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available.

3.5 Investor Sophistication and Ability to Bear Risk of Loss. Each Investor acknowledges that it is able to protect its interests in connection with the acquisition of the Warrant Amendment and entry into this Agreement and can bear the economic risk of investment in such securities without producing a material adverse change in such Investor’s financial condition. Each Investor, either alone or with such Investor’s representative(s), otherwise has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that such Investor is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of entry into this Agreement and an investment in the Warrant Amendment.

3.6 Preexisting Relationship. Each Investor has a preexisting personal or business relationship with the Company, one or more of its officers, directors, or controlling persons, or WestPark Capital, Inc. (as defined herein).
 
3.7 Purchases by Groups. Each Investor represents, warrants and covenants that it is not entering into this Agreement or acquiring the Warrant Amendment as part of a group within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
 
4. Miscellaneous

4.1  All notices or other communications given or made hereunder shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to the undersigned, at the address set forth on the signature page hereto, and to the Company at the address of the Company on the cover page of the most recent Report at the time of giving notice.

The Investor Parties may hereafter discover facts in addition to or different from those which he, she or it now knows or believes to be true with respect to the subject matter of the released claims, but the Investor Parties have fully, finally, and forever settled and released any and all released claims, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, contingent or non-contingent, whether or not concealed or hidden, which now exist, or heretofore have existed, upon any theory of law or equity now existing or coming into existence in the future, including, but not limited to, conduct which is negligent, intentional, with or without malice, or a breach of any duty, law or rule, without regard to the subsequent discovery or existence of such different or additional facts. The Investor Parties acknowledge that the foregoing waiver was separately bargained for and a key element of the contract of which this release is a part.
