          the Sale Shares in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
          (including failure to complete by reason of the failure to obtain the
          Approval) other than due to the proven default of the Vendor, half of
          the Deposit shall be forfeited to the Vendor as liquidated damages
          (the "FORFEITURE") and in addition, if the Conditions Deadline is
          extended, the Vendor shall also be entitled to deduct the Compensation
          (calculated up to the day of the receipt of the Notice by the Vendor
          if the Notice is served by the Purchaser or calculated up to 31 March
          2008 if no Notice is served by the Purchaser) from the balance of
          the Deposit (the "DEDUCTION"). The remaining balance of the Deposit
          (after the Forfeiture and any Deduction) shall be returned to the
          Purchaser without interest within seven (7) days from the date of the
          receipt of the Notice by the Vendor or 31 March 2008, as the case may

          that the NAV per Share is less than the NAV per Share as shown in the
          draft pro-forma Completion Accounts, the Vendor shall pay the amount
          of the difference of the NAV per Share multiplied by the number of the
          Sale Shares to the Purchaser within ten (10) days from the date of
          delivery of the final Completion Accounts by way of solicitor's
          cheque. If the final Completion Accounts shall show that the NAV per
          Share is more than the NAV per Share as shown in the draft pro-forma
          Completion Accounts, the Purchaser shall pay the amount of the
          difference of the NAV per Share multiplied by the number of the Sale
          Shares to the Vendor within ten (10) days from the date of delivery of
          the final Completion Accounts by way of solicitor's cheque. The
          Purchaser shall provide with the Vendor full access to the books,
          records and resources of the Company so as to enable the Vendor to
          procure the final Completion Accounts to be drawn up.

     (c)  The basis and policy of accounting adopted in preparing the pro-forma
          draft Completion Accounts and the final Completion Accounts shall be

          Kong.

     (d)  In the event of a dispute between the Parties as to the amount of the
          NAV as shown in the final Completion Accounts, the Vendor or the
          Purchaser may procure that the final Completion Accounts be audited by
          the auditors of the Company within forty-five (45) days from the date
          of delivery of the final Completion Accounts provided that the
          procurement of the audited final Completion Accounts shall be made by
          the relevant Party within seven (7) days from the date of delivery of


                                       8

<PAGE>

          the final Completion Accounts.

     (e)  If the audited Completion Accounts shall show that the NAV per Share
          is less than the NAV per Share as shown in the draft pro-forma
          Completion Accounts, the Vendor shall pay the amount of the difference
          of the NAV per Share multiplied by the number of the Sale Shares to
          the Purchaser within seven (7) days from the date of delivery of the
          audited Completion Accounts by way of solicitor's cheque. If the
          audited Completion Accounts shall show that the NAV per Share is more
          than the NAV per Share as shown in the draft pro-forma Completion
          Accounts, the Purchaser shall pay the amount of the difference of the
          NAV per Share multiplied by the number of the Sale Shares to the
          Vendor within seven (7) days from the date of delivery of the audited
          Completion Accounts by way of solicitor's cheque. The Vendor together
          with the other vendors of the one part and the Purchaser of the other
          part shall each be responsible for payment of 50% of the cost and
          expenses for the preparation and completion of the audited Completion
