powers, authorities and discretions on its behalf which are reasonably necessary for, or
reasonably incidental to, its appointment and such placing of the Bonds. The Issuer agrees to
ratify and confirm everything (other than acts of fraud, gross negligence, bad faith, wilful
default or wilful misconduct of which the Placement Agent is guilty of as determined by a
court of final appeal) the Placement Agent shall lawfully do or has done pursuant to or in
anticipation of such appointment. It is acknowledged and agreed by the Issuer that none of

the Bonds at levels which might not otherwise prevail.

the issuance of the Bonds, subject to the Issuer approving the same, to be published on such dates
as it may agree with the Placement Agent.

actually
received by the Placement Agent falls short of the amount due under the terms of this Agreement,
the Issuer shall as a separate and independent obligation, indemnify and hold harmless the

obligations under the provisions of this Agreement and shall apply irrespective of any indulgence
granted by the Placement Agent from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect
notwithstanding the judgment or filing of any proof or proofs in any bankruptcy, insolvency or
liquidation of the Issuer for a liquidated sum or sums in respect of amounts due under this

7. Closing

At 4:00 pm (Hong Kong time) on 4 September 2009 (or such other time or date as the Issuer and the
Placement Agent shall agree) (the Closing Date) and without prejudice to Clause 9.2, the Issuer
will issue the Bonds and procure the entry in the register of Bondholders of the names of the
persons designated by the Placement Agent to be the holders of the Bonds and will deliver to the
Placement Agent or its order in such place as the Placement Agent may require the Certificates duly
executed and authenticated representing the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds provided that
the Issuer shall not be obligated to issue Bonds to any person identified by the Placement Agent to

Schedule 3 duly executed by such person; and

	(ii)	 	such person and its Affiliate is not engaged in any business activity that competes with the

Restricted Subsidiary’s ability to comply with applicable gaming regulatory requirements.

Against such delivery the Placement Agent will pay or cause to be paid to the Issuer the net
subscription moneys being the issue price of 100.00 per cent. of the aggregate principal amount of
the Bonds fully subscribed less the Placement Fee and the costs and expenses payable by the Issuer
under Clause 6. Such payment shall be made in United States dollars in immediately available

Page 46

 

Terms and Conditions of the Bonds

The following terms and conditions, subject to amendment, will be printed on the back of the
Certificates issued in respect of the Bonds.

The issue of US$600,000,000 Exchangeable Bonds due 2014 (the Bonds) by Venetian Venture Development
Intermediate II (the Issuer) was authorised by a resolution of the board of directors of the Issuer
passed on 1 September 2009. The Bonds are constituted by a trust deed dated 4 September 2009 (as
amended or supplemented from time to time) (the Trust Deed) between the Issuer and Citicorp
International 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 acting as trustee or trustees under
the Trust Deed) as trustee for the holders of the Bonds. The Issuer has also entered into a
paying, exchange and transfer agency agreement dated 4 September 2009 (as amended or supplemented
from time to time, the Agency Agreement) with, among others, the Trustee, the principal agent, the
exchange agents (the Exchange Agents), the paying agents (the Paying Agents), the transfer agents
(the Transfer Agents) and the Registrar (as defined below) relating to the Bonds. The statements in
these Terms and Conditions of the Bonds (the Conditions) include summaries of, and are subject to,
the detailed provisions of the Trust Deed and the Agency Agreement (including the definitions used
therein). The Bondholders are entitled to the benefit of the Trust Deed and are bound by, and are
deemed to have notice of, all the provisions of the Trust Deed and the Agency Agreement. In the
event of any inconsistency between the terms of the Trust Deed and these Terms and Conditions or
between the terms of the Trust Deed and the Agency Agreement, the terms of the Trust Deed shall
prevail. Copies of the Trust Deed and the Agency Agreement are available for inspection during
normal business hours at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee for the time being at
39th Floor, ICBC Tower, Citibank Plaza, 3 Garden Road, Central, Hong Kong and at the
specified offices of the Paying Agents, the Exchange Agents and the Transfer Agents, all as
appointed pursuant to the Agency Agreement.

In the Conditions, Bondholder and (in relation to a Bond) holder means the persons in whose name a
Bond is registered on the Bond Register (as defined below). Certificate means:

	(a)	 	a Restricted Certificate (as defined in the Trust Deed); or
	 
	(b)	 	a Regulation S Certificate (as defined in the Trust Deed).

1. STATUS

The Bonds constitute direct, unconditional, unsubordinated in right of payment and unsecured
obligations of the Issuer and shall at all times rank pari passu and without any preference or
priority among themselves and at least equally with all other present and future unsubordinated,
unsecured obligations of the Issuer, except as may be required by mandatory provisions of law.

2. FORM, DENOMINATION AND TITLE

2.1 Form and Denomination

The Bonds will be issuable only in registered form and only in denominations of US$250,000 or
integral multiples thereof. A Certificate will be issued to each Bondholder in respect of its
registered holding of Bonds. Each Bondholder shall be entitled to receive only one Certificate in
respect of its entire holding of Bonds. Each Bond and each Certificate will have an identifying
number which will be recorded on the relevant Certificate and in the register of

Bella — Placing Agreement

Page 47

 

Bondholders (the Bond Register) which the Issuer will procure to be kept by the registrar appointed
pursuant to the Agency Agreement (the Registrar).

Upon issue, the Bonds will be represented by the Certificates that together will represent the
aggregate principal amount of the Bonds. Bonds sold in reliance on Section 4(2) of the United
States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), will be represented by the
Restricted Certificates. Bonds sold to non-U.S. persons in reliance on Regulation S under the
Securities Act will be represented by the Regulation S Certificates.

2.2 Title

The Bonds will be registered instruments, title to which will pass only by registration in the Bond
Register. The registered holder of any Bond (except as otherwise required by law) will be treated
as the owner for all purposes (whether or not it is overdue and regardless of any notice of
ownership, trust or any interest or any writing on, or the theft or loss of, the Certificate issued
in respect of it), and neither the Issuer, the Trustee, nor any of the Exchange Agents, the Paying
Agents, the Registrar, the Transfer Agents, nor any agent thereof, shall be affected by notice to
the contrary.

4. TRANSFERS OF BONDS; ISSUE OF CERTIFICATES

4.1 Transfers and Register

The Issuer will cause the Bond Register to be kept at the specified office of the Registrar outside
of Hong Kong and the United Kingdom and in accordance with the terms of the Agency Agreement, on
which shall be entered the names and addresses of the holders of Bonds and the particulars of the
Bonds held by them and all transfers of the Bonds.

Subject to Condition 4.4 and the terms of the Agency Agreement, the holder of a Bond may request
that such Bond be transferred by delivering to the specified office of the Registrar or any of the
other Transfer Agent appointed pursuant to the Agency Agreement:

	(i)	 	the Certificate issued in respect of that Bond accompanied by a form of transfer duly
completed and signed;
	 
	(ii)	 	a deed of undertaking in the form set out in Schedule 5 duly executed by the new holder; and

	(iii)	 	a transfer certificate (in the form set out in the Agency Agreement) duly completed and
executed by the existing holder and (if applicable) the new holder,

whereupon the Registrar or such Transfer Agent shall within two Business Days notify the Issuer
(such date of notification shall hereinafter be referred to as the Notification Date), provided
that there shall be no partial transfer of a Bond.

The Issuer shall notify the Registrar and the Principal Agent in writing, within five Business Days
after the Notification Date, whether it consents to such transfer (which consent shall not
unreasonably be withheld, it being understood that: (i) consent may not be withheld to a transfer
by a Bondholder to one of its Affiliates (except such consent may be withheld pursuant to
sub-clause (ii) below) provided that such Affiliate remains an Affiliate of such Bondholder after
the transfer; and (ii) consent may be withheld with respect to a transfer to any Person who or
whose Affiliate is engaged in any business activity that competes with the business of the Issuer
and the Restricted Subsidiaries or with respect to any transfer which would or might, in the
reasonable opinion of the Issuer, have a material adverse effect on the Issuer’s or any Restricted
Subsidiary’s ability to comply with applicable gaming regulatory requirements).

If the Issuer consents to such transfer, the Registrar shall record such transfer in the Bond
Register in accordance with the Agency Agreement. If the Issuer does not consent to such transfer,
the Principal Agent shall promptly notify the holder of the Bond.

The Registrar and any Transfer Agent may decline to effect any exchange or transfer of a Bond (i)
during the period of 15 days ending on (and including) the due date for any payment of the
Redemption Amount of such Bond, (ii) during the period of up to 15 days ending on

Bella — Placing Agreement

Page 61

 

(and including) the proposed date of the Qualified IPO (such date shall be notified to the
Registrar and the Transfer Agents pursuant to Condition 3.15), (iii) after notice of redemption
with respect to such Bond is given pursuant to Condition 8.8 or (iv) after a Redemption Demand (as
defined in Condition 8.5) with respect to such Bond has been deposited in accordance with Condition
8.5, each such period being a Closed Period. No transfer of a Bond will be valid unless and until
entered on the Bond Register.

4.2 Delivery of New Certificates

Each new Certificate to be issued on transfer of Bonds will, within three (3) Business Days of
receipt by the Registrar or the relevant Transfer Agent of the original Certificate and the form of
transfer, be mailed at the Issuer’s expense at the risk of the Bondholder entitled to the Bonds to
the address specified in the form of transfer. Where some but not all the Bonds in respect of which
a Certificate is issued are to be transferred, exchanged or redeemed, a new Certificate in respect
of the Bonds not so transferred, exchanged or redeemed will, within three (3) Business Days of
deposit or surrender of the original Certificate with or to the Registrar or the relevant Transfer
Agent, be mailed at the Issuer’s expense at the risk of the Bondholder not so transferred,
exchanged or redeemed to the address of such Bondholder appearing on the Bond Register.

4.3 Formalities Free of Charge

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Bonds but the
Issuer or any of the Transfer Agents may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover (or indemnity
in respect of) any tax or other governmental charges that may be imposed.

4.4 Regulations

All transfers of Bonds and entries on the Bond Register will be made subject to the detailed
regulations concerning transfer of Bonds attached as a schedule to the Agency Agreement. The
regulations may be changed by the Issuer with the prior written approval of the Trustee and the
Registrar. A copy of the current regulations will be mailed by the Registrar to any Bondholder upon
written request at the Issuer’s expense.

5. INTEREST

5.1 Interest Rate and Interest Period

The Bonds bear interest from and including 4 September 2009 (the Closing Date), at the rate of the
Applicable Interest Rate calculated by reference to the principal amount thereof and, subject to
Condition 5.3, payable semi-annually in equal instalments in arrear on 4 March and 4 September in
each year (each an Interest Payment Date), commencing on 4 March 2010.

The amount of interest payable in respect of a Bond for any period which is not an Interest Period
(as defined below) shall be calculated on the basis of the number of days in the relevant period
from (and including) the first day of such period to but (excluding) the last day of such period
divided by 180 days. For the avoidance of doubt, accrued but unpaid interest for the final
Interest Period immediately preceding the Maturity Date shall be payable by the Issuer on the
Maturity Date.

Interest Period means the period beginning on (and including) the Closing Date and ending on (but
excluding) the first Interest Payment Date following the Closing Date and each successive period
beginning on (and including) an Interest Payment Date and ending on (but excluding) the next
succeeding Interest Payment Date.

Page 62

 

5.2 Accrual of Interest

Each Bond will cease to bear interest (i) where the Exchange Shares have been issued and delivered
to the relevant Bondholder or its nominee or trustee whose name is specified on the Exchange Notice
on the Exchange Date, from (and including) the Exchange Date or (ii) where such Bond is being
redeemed or repaid pursuant to Condition 8 or Condition 10, from (and including) the due date for
redemption thereof unless, upon due presentation thereof, payment of principal is improperly
withheld or refused, in which event, such Bond shall continue to bear interest, payable on demand,
on the outstanding principal amount thereof at the rate specified in Condition 7.4 and in
accordance thereof.

The Issuer shall pay any such interest accrued pursuant to Condition 5.1 above or procure that any
such interest is paid by not later than the relevant date for redemption in the case of a
redemption pursuant to Condition 8 or Condition 10 or, upon the exchange of Bonds pursuant to
Condition 6, and subject to Condition 5.3, the Exchange Date by US dollars to the registered
account of the Bondholder or by US dollar cheque mailed to the registered address of the Bondholder
if it does not have a registered account.

5.3 Payments in Kind upon Exchange

At the election of the Issuer, all interest accrued on a Bond pursuant to Condition 5.1 for the
period from (and including) the Interest Payment Date immediately prior to the Exchange Date (or,
if none, the Closing Date) to (but excluding) the Exchange Date shall be consolidated with the
outstanding principal amount of such Bond and shall thereafter for all purposes be treated as part
of the principal amount of the Bonds (including for the purpose of calculating the number of Shares
for which each Bond shall be exchanged pursuant to Condition 6). For the avoidance of doubt,
interest accrued on a Bond in respect of any period other than the period referred to in the
immediately preceding sentence shall be paid in cash in accordance with Conditions 5.1 and 5.2.

In order to exercise such election as referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph, the
Issuer shall give notice to the Bondholders pursuant to Condition 15, to the Trustee and to the
Registrar, no later than the date on which notice required to be given under Condition 3.15(ii) is
given.

For the avoidance of doubt, upon such election of the Issuer:

	(a)	 	no additional Certificate shall be issued, nor will any existing Certificate be amended, in
respect of the additional principal amount so converted from the interest accrued on the
Bonds; and

	(b)	 	the Registrar shall amend the Bond Register to reflect the increased principal amount of the
Bonds.

6. EXCHANGE

6.1 Mandatory Exchange

	(i)	 	Subject as hereinafter provided, the principal amount of each Bond (including such principal
amount converted from interest pursuant to Condition 5.3) shall be automatically exchanged for
the Exchange Shares at the Exchange Price on the date of the Qualified IPO (the Exchange
Date). Without prejudice to the obligations of the Issuer under Condition 3.15, the Issuer
shall forthwith upon final determination of the date of the Qualified IPO by Sands China, send
or procure Sands China to send a

Bella — Placing Agreement

Page 63

 

	 	 	written notice to the Bondholders
pursuant to Condition 15 advising the
Bondholders of: (i) the Exchange Date
and (ii) the Exchange Price (if then
available). For the avoidance of doubt,
if the Exchange Shares are not issued
and delivered to the Bondholders
pursuant to Condition 6.2(iii) below, or
made available for collection pursuant
to Condition 6.2(iii) below, on the
Exchange Date in accordance with these
Terms and Conditions, the Trust Deed and
the Agency Agreement, the Issuer and the
Bondholders shall continue to possess
and be subject to the rights and
obligations set forth in these Terms and
Conditions, the Trust Deed and the
Agency Agreement.
	 
	(ii)	 	Exchange Price:
	 
	 	 	The price at which Exchange Shares will be issued and delivered upon exchange (the Exchange
Price) will be the issue price per Share to be issued or placed out pursuant to the
Qualified IPO on the Exchange Date (if denominated in a currency other than HK$, the issue
price per share shall be converted to HK$ at the Applicable Exchange Rate on the third day
prior to the Exchange Date) multiplied by 90%. The number of Exchange Shares to be issued
and delivered will be determined by dividing (x) the principal amount of the Bonds to be
exchanged, translated into HK$ at the Applicable Exchange Rate on the third day prior to
the Exchange Date (including such additional principal amount of the Bonds converted from
accrued interest pursuant to Condition 5.3), by (y) the Exchange Price and, subject to the
provisions of Condition 6.1(iii), rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole
number of the Exchange Shares.
	 
	 	 	If more than one Bond shall be subject to exchange at any one time by the same Bondholder
and the Exchange Shares to be issued and delivered on such exchange are to be issued and
delivered to or to the order of the same person, the number of Exchange Shares to be issued
and delivered and any sum payable to that Bondholder will be calculated on the basis of the
aggregate principal amount of the Bonds of that Bondholder to be exchanged.
	 
	(iii)	 	Fractions Arising on Exchange:
	 
	 	 	No fraction of an Exchange Share which is not divisible shall be issued and delivered on
exchange of the Bonds and the Issuer shall not be under any obligation to make any payment
to Bondholders in respect of any such fractions and any such fraction will be rounded down
to the nearest whole multiple of a Share.

6.2 Procedure for Exchange:

	(i)	 	Exchange Notices:
	 
	 	 	To receive the Exchange Shares, the Bondholder must complete, execute and deposit at such
Bondholder’s expense during the office hours between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. at least five
Business Days prior to the Exchange Date at the specified office of any Exchange Agent, a
notice of exchange (an Exchange Notice) in the form (for the time being current) obtainable
from the specified office of any Exchange Agent and in duplicate, together with the
relevant Certificate (and any certificates and other documents as may be required by
applicable law). For the avoidance of doubt, each Bondholder shall be entitled to
designate a nominee to hold on its behalf the Exchange Shares to be issued and delivered
upon exchange under this Condition 6 provided that such designations shall be made in the
relevant Exchange Notice and the Bondholder remains the beneficial owner of such Exchange
Shares.

Bella — Placing Agreement

Page 64

 

	(ii)	 	Stamp and Other Duties and Payments:
	 
	 	 	The Issuer must pay directly to the applicable taxing authority all capital, stamp, issue,
registration, documentary or similar taxes or duties or transfer costs and expenses (if
any) arising in connection with the exchange of a Bond payable in any jurisdiction (which
shall be the responsibility of Issuer as discussed below) consequent upon the issue or
delivery of Exchange Shares or any other securities, property or cash. If the Issuer fails
to pay any such expenses, the relevant Bondholder may (but is not obligated to) tender and
pay such expenses. The Issuer shall reimburse each Bondholder in respect of the payment of
such taxes, costs and expenses and any penalties paid in respect thereof. Neither the
Trustee nor the Exchange Agents shall be under any obligation to determine whether the
Issuer is liable to make any payment (and the amount of any payment) under this Condition
6.2(ii).
	 
	(iii)	 	Issue and Delivery of Exchange Shares:
	 
	 	 	The Issuer shall no later than 10:00 am (Hong Kong time) on the Exchange Date cause the
Exchange Shares to be issued to each Bondholder by crediting, or procuring the crediting
of, such shares to the securities account of each Bondholder specified in the relevant
Exchange Notice or as otherwise specified in the Exchange Notice, provided that such
Exchange Notice is delivered by the Exchange Agent to the Issuer no later than 12:00 noon
(Hong Kong time) on the third Business Day prior to the Exchange Date (the Cut Off Time).
	 
	 	 	No Exchange Shares may be allotted and issued to a person other than the Bondholder, its
nominee or trustee except with the consent of the Issuer (which consent shall not
unreasonably be withheld, it being understood that: (i) consent may not be withheld with
respect to allotment and issue to one of the Affiliates of the Bondholder (except such
consent may be withheld pursuant to sub-clause (ii) below) provided that such Affiliate
remains an Affiliate of such Bondholder after the allotment and issue; and (ii) consent may
be withheld with respect to allotment and issue to any Person who or whose Affiliate is
engaged in any business activity that competes with the business of the Issuer and the
Restricted Subsidiaries or with respect to any allotment which would or might, in the
reasonable opinion of the Issuer, have a material adverse effect on the Issuer’s or any
Restricted Subsidiary’s ability to comply with applicable gaming regulatory requirements).
	 
	 	 	In the event the Issuer has not received from the Exchange Agent a duly completed Exchange
Notice in respect of the Exchange Shares issuable with respect to a Bond on exchange of the
Bonds prior to the Cut Off Time, the Issuer shall nonetheless on the Exchange Date cause
such Exchange Shares to be issued and allotted to the Bondholder of such Bond and the
certificate(s) of such Exchange Shares to such Bondholder to be made available for
collection by such Bondholder on the Exchange Date at the office of the share registrar of
Sands China in Hong Kong subject to the deposit of the relevant Certificate(s) by such
Bondholder at the specified office of any Exchange Agent.
	 
	 	 	The relevant Bondholder (or, to the extent permitted by law, the person designated in the
relevant Exchange Notice, as the case may be) will with effect from the Exchange Date, be
deemed and treated by the Issuer for all purposes as the shareholder of the number of
Exchange Shares deliverable upon exchange of the relevant Bonds (and the Issuer shall
procure Sands China to treat such relevant Bondholder as shareholder of such Exchange
Shares) and, in respect of such number of Exchange Shares, will be

Bella — Placing Agreement

Page 65

 

	 	 	entitled to all rights, distributions or payments in respect of such number of Exchange
Shares from the Exchange Date, subject to and in accordance with the memorandum and
articles of association of Sands China and these Conditions (in particular without
limitation Condition 6.3).
	 
	(v)	 	Exchange Shares:
	 
	 	 	All Exchange Shares issued and delivered upon exchange of the Bonds shall be issued and
delivered with full title guarantee and free from any and all Liens. The Exchange Shares to
be issued and delivered on exchange of the Bonds will be fully paid and will rank pari
passu with all fully paid Shares of the same class in issue on the Exchange Date.
	 
	(vi)	 	Cancellation of Bonds
	 
	 	 	All Bonds will be cancelled, the Bondholder’s name will be removed from the Bond Register
and all Certificate(s) will become null and void and cease to have effect on the Exchange
Date following delivery of all the Exchange Shares deliverable on exchange of the Bonds in
accordance with Condition 6.2(iii), the Trust Deed and the Agency Agreement.

6.3 Voting Rights, etc.

Bondholders shall have no voting or other rights in respect of Shares in Sands China prior to the
Exchange Date relating to such Exchange Shares, except for the right to have Shares issued and
delivered to them or made available for collection by them on the Exchange Date in accordance with
these Terms and Conditions.

by transfer to its registered account or by US dollar cheque mailed to the registered address of
the Bondholder. Payments of the applicable Redemption Amount will only be made against surrender of
the relevant Certificate at the specified office of the Principal Agent or any of the other Paying
Agents.

of payments of applicable Redemption Amount, on the Business Day on which the relevant Certificate
is surrendered at the specified office of a Paying Agent.

7.4 Interest and Delay in Payment

If the Issuer fails to pay any sum in respect of the Bonds when the same becomes due and payable
under these Conditions, interest shall accrue on the overdue sum at the rate of 2% per annum above
the then prevailing Applicable Interest Rate in respect of the period for which such sum is owed
from the due date and ending on the date that, following the Trustee’s receipt of such sum owed by
the Issuer, the Trustee determines to be the date on and after which payment is to be made to the
holders of the Bonds in respect thereof (both dates inclusive) as stated in a notice given to the
holders of the Bonds in accordance with Condition 15. Such interest shall accrue on the basis of
the actual number of days elapsed and a 360-day year consisting of 12 months of 30 days each.

Bondholders will not be entitled to any interest or other payment for any delay after the due date
in receiving the amount due if the due date at the place of payment (or, in the case of the
surrender of a Certificate, the place where the Certificate is surrendered) is not a Business Day
(provided the amount is duly provided for on or before the due date), if the Bondholder is late in
surrendering its Certificate (if required to do so) or if a cheque mailed in accordance with this
Condition arrives after the due date for payment.

7.5 Legal Holidays

In any case where any redemption date, any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date of any Bond
shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of these Conditions) payment
of the applicable interest or Redemption Amount of the Bonds need not be made on such date, but may
be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the
relevant redemption date, Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date.

7.6 Partial Payment

If the amount of the applicable Redemption Amount (including Additional Amounts) which is due on
the Bonds is not paid in full, the Registrar will annotate the Bond Register with a record of the
applicable Redemption Amount, interest and default interest (if any), in fact paid, if any.

7.7 Fiscal Laws

All payments under the Bonds are subject in all cases to any applicable laws and regulations in the
place of payment, but without prejudice to the provisions of Condition 9, no commissions or
expenses shall be charged to the Bondholders in respect of such payments.

defined below) in whole or in part together with accrued but unpaid interest to the date of
redemption at any time from (and including) the date falling 30 days after the Closing Date to (but
excluding) the Maturity Date (any such date shall hereinafter referred to as an Issuer Optional
Redemption Date). In order to exercise such option the Issuer shall give not less than 30 days nor
more than 60 days’ notice (an Issuer Optional Redemption Notice) to the Bondholders, the Trustee
and the Paying Agent, which notice shall:

	(a)	 	be irrevocable;
	 
	(b)	 	specify the Issuer Optional Redemption Date;

	(c)	 	in the case of a partial redemption, the percentage of the total outstanding principal amount
of the Bonds to be redeemed (the Relevant Percentage); and

	(d)	 	shall oblige the Issuer to redeem the Bonds at the Early Redemption Amount together with
accrued but unpaid interest on the Issuer Optional Redemption Date specified in such notice,

provided that:

	(i)	 	on any Issuer Optional Redemption Date the Issuer shall issue to the holder of each Bond a
warrant instrument in the form set out in Schedule 4 in respect of each Bond and, for the
avoidance of doubt, a Bondholder holding such number of Bonds so redeemed by the Issuer on
such Issuer Optional Redemption Date shall be entitled to receive an equivalent number of
warrants in the form set out in Schedule 4; and

	(ii)	 	the Issuer may not issue such notice or designate an Issuer Optional Redemption Date unless
the proposed redemption relates to Bonds the total principal amount of which (after being
rounded down pursuant to the next sentence) is not less than US$50,000,000.

In the case of a partial redemption of the Bonds, the number of Bonds held by each Bondholder to be
redeemed shall be determined by multiplying:

	(a)	 	the total number of Bonds held by such Bondholder; by
	 
	(b)	 	the Relevant Percentage,

and rounding such number down to the nearest integer.

Early Redemption Amount means, in relation to each Bond, 100.00% of the principal amount of that

during normal business hours of such Paying Agent not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior

US$250,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple thereof) of the Bonds held by such holder or
the Bonds represented by Certificates held by such holder at their Early Redemption Amount together
with all accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption. No such demand of redemption will
be valid unless completed in its entirety.

Any such demand of redemption will be irrevocable, unless its revocation is approved in writing by
the Issuer not later than five (5) days prior to the Bondholder Optional Redemption Date, and will
bind the Issuer, upon surrender by the Bondholder of the Certificates in respect of the relevant
Bond or Bonds at the specified office of the Paying Agent with which the demand of redemption was
deposited, to redeem the Bonds to which such demand relates.

8.4 Repurchase in the Event of Change of Control

If a Change of Control shall have occurred, the Issuer shall as soon as possible give notice of
that fact to the Bondholders, the Trustee and the Principal Agent (the Change of Control Notice) in
accordance with Condition 15 promptly upon, and in any event within three (3) days after it becomes
aware of, such Change of Control.

If a Change of Control occurs, each Bondholder, shall have the right (the Change of Control Put
Right), subject to Condition 8.5, at such Bondholder’s option, to require the Issuer to repurchase
all (or any portion of the principal amount thereof which is US$250,000 or an integral multiple
thereof) of such Bondholder’s Bonds on the date set by the Issuer for such repurchase (the Change
of Control Put Date), which shall not be less than 30 nor more than 60 days following the date on
which the Issuer notifies the Bondholders, the Trustee and the Principal Agent in writing of the
Change of Control, at a price equal to their Early Redemption Amount (the Change of Control Put
Price) together with accrued but unpaid interest to the date of redemption.

8.5 Repurchase Procedures

Promptly upon, and in any event within three (3) days after the Issuer becoming aware of a Change
of Control, the Issuer will provide (or procure the provision of) notice to each Bondholder, the
Trustee and the Principal Agent regarding such holders’ Change of Control Put Right in accordance
with Condition 15. Such notice shall state, as appropriate:

	(i)	 	the Change of Control Put Date;
	 
	(ii)	 	the date of such Change of Control and, briefly, the events causing such Change of Control;
	 
	(iii)	 	the date by which the Redemption Demand (as defined below) must be given;
	 
	(iv)	 	the Change of Control Put Price;
	 
	(v)	 	the names and addresses of all Paying Agents;

	(vi)	 	the procedures that Bondholders must follow and the requirements that holders must satisfy in
order to exercise their the Change of Control Put Right; and

	(vii)	 	that a Redemption Demand, once validly given, may not be withdrawn.

To exercise its right to require the Issuer to purchase the Bonds, the Bondholder must deliver a
written irrevocable notice of the exercise of such right (a Redemption Demand) together

Bella — Placing Agreement

with the Certificates to any Paying Agent on any Business Day prior to the close of business at the
location of such Paying Agent on such day and which day is not less than five Business Days prior
to the Change of Control Put Date.

8.6 Purchases

The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may at any time and from time to time purchase Bonds at any
price in the open market or otherwise. Such Bonds may, at the option of the Issuer or the relevant
Subsidiary, be held, resold or surrendered to any Paying Agent for cancellation. The Bonds so
purchased, while held by or on behalf of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries, shall not entitle
the Bondholder to vote at any meeting of the Bondholders and shall not be deemed to be outstanding
for the purpose of calculating the quorum at a meeting of the Bondholders or for the purpose of
Conditions 10, 12 and 13.

8.7 Cancellation

All Bonds redeemed or converted by the Issuer or purchased and surrendered to any Paying Agent for
cancellation as provided in Condition 8.6 above will forthwith be cancelled and all Certificates in
respect of cancelled Bonds will be forwarded to or to the order of the Principal Agent, whereupon
such Certificate shall be destroyed and a certificate of destruction furnished to the Issuer upon
the written request of the Issuer.

8.8 Redemption Notices

All notices to Bondholders, the Trustee and the Paying Agent given by or on behalf of the Issuer
pursuant to this Condition will be given, in the case of notices to the Bondholders only in
accordance with Condition 15, and will in all cases specify the date for redemption, the manner in
which redemption will be effected and the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds outstanding as at
the latest practicable date prior to the notice. All Bonds in respect of which a redemption notice
is given shall be redeemed as provided in this Condition 8 on the relevant redemption date.

9. TAXATION

All payments made by the Issuer or a successor (each a Payor) on the Bonds, including the
applicable Redemption Amount, will be made free and clear of, and without withholding or deduction
for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of
whatever nature (Taxes) unless the withholding or deduction of such Taxes is then required by law.
If any deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any Taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf
of:

	(1)	 	Cayman Islands, Macau SAR or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or
therein having power to tax;

	(2)	 	any jurisdiction from or through which payment on the Bonds is made, or any political
subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having the power to tax; or

	(3)	 	any other jurisdiction in which a Payor is organised or otherwise considered to be a resident
for tax purposes, or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein
having the power to tax (each of clause (1), (2) and (3), a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction),

will at any time be required from any payments made with respect to the Bonds, including payments
of the applicable Redemption Amount, interest or default interest, the Payor will withhold such
Taxes and pay them to the relevant government authority and the Payor will pay (together with such
payments) such additional amounts (the Additional Amounts) as may be necessary in order that the
net amounts received in respect of such payments by each Bondholder after such withholding or
deduction (including any such deduction or withholding from such Additional Amounts), equal the
amounts which would have been received in respect of such payments in the absence of such
withholding or deduction. The foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts does not apply to or
with respect to:

	(i)	 	any Taxes that would not have been imposed, deducted or withheld but for the Bondholder being
or having been connected with a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or any political subdivision
thereof (including without limitation being a citizen or resident or national of, or carrying
on a business or maintaining a permanent establishment in, or being physically present in a
Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction) other than merely by holding such Bond or receiving the
applicable Redemption Amount, interest or default interest, in respect thereof; or
	 
	(ii)	 	any Taxes imposed, deducted or withheld by reason of the failure of a Bondholder to comply
with a reasonable request of the Issuer to provide information, documents or other evidence
concerning the nationality, residence or identity of the Bondholder pursuant to any
requirement or provision under a statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice to
establish entitlement to exemption from or reduction of all or part of any Taxes; or
	 
	(iii)	 	any Taxes imposed, deducted or withheld by reason of the failure of a Bondholder to present
a Bond (where presentation is required) for payment within 30 days after the Relevant Date
except to the extent that the holder thereof would have been entitled to such additional
payment on presenting the same for payment on the last day of such 30-day period; for this
purpose the Relevant Date in relation to any payments of the applicable Redemption Amount of,
interest or default interest, on, any Bond means: (a) the due date for payment thereof, or (b)
if the full amount of the monies payable on such date has not been received by the Trustee on
or prior to such due date, the date on which, the full amount of such monies having been so
received, notice to that effect is duly given to holders of the Bonds in accordance with the
Trust Deed; or
	 
	(iv)	 	any Taxes that are imposed, deducted or withheld on a payment to an individual pursuant to
European Council Directive 2003/48/EC (the Directive) or pursuant to any law implementing or
complying with, or introduced in order to conform to the Directive; or
	 
	(v)	 	any Taxes that are imposed, deducted or withheld that a Bondholder could have avoided by
presenting (where presentation is required) the relevant Bond to, or otherwise accepting
payment from, another paying agent in a member state of the European Union; or
	 
	(vi)	 	any combination of (i) through (v) above.

The Issuer will provide the Trustee with documentation evidencing the payment of such Taxes. Copies
of such documentation will be made available by the Issuer to any Bondholder or any Paying Agent,
as applicable, upon request therefor.

The Issuer shall promptly pay when due any present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes or
any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise in any

instrument referred to herein or therein (including the Trust Deed and the Agency Agreement), which
are (i) imposed by a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, or (ii) imposed by any jurisdiction if such
amounts are required to be paid as a result of or in connection with, the enforcement of the Bonds
or any other such document or instrument following the occurrence of any Event of Default with
respect to the Bonds. All references to the Redemption Amount, Final Redemption Amount, Early
Redemption Amount, interest, default interest (if any) and any other amount payable by the Issuer
in respect of the Bonds shall be deemed to include any Additional Amounts which may be payable in
respect thereof under this Condition 9.

protect and enforce the rights vested in it by the Trust Deed by such appropriate judicial
proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of such rights,
either at law or in equity or in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of
any covenant or agreement contained in the Trust Deed or in aid of the exercise of any power
granted in the Trust Deed or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by
the Trust Deed or by law but the Trustee will not be bound to take any such action or proceedings
unless (i) it shall have been so requested in writing by the holders of more than 25% of the
principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding or shall have been so directed by an Ordinary
Resolution of the Bondholders and (ii) it shall have been indemnified and/or secured to its
satisfaction.

Bella — Placing Agreement

Page 74

 

12.2 Limitations on Suits by Bondholders:

No Bondholder shall have any right by virtue or by availing of any provision of the Trust Deed to
institute any action or proceeding at law or in equity or in bankruptcy or otherwise upon or under
or with respect to the Trust Deed, or for the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator,
custodian or other similar official or for any other remedy under the Trust Deed, unless (i) the
holders of more than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding shall have
made written request upon the Trustee or (ii) an Ordinary Resolution has been passed by the
Bondholders to direct the Trustee, to institute such action or proceedings in its own name as
trustee under the Trust Deed and shall have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security
satisfactory to it in its sole discretion as it may require against the costs, expenses and
liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby and the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such
notice (or Ordinary Resolution), request and offer of indemnity or security shall have failed to
institute any such action or proceedings and no direction inconsistent with such written request
shall have been given to the Trustee pursuant to the Trust Deed; it being understood and intended,
and being expressly covenanted by the taker and holder of every Bond with every other taker and
holder and the Trustee, that no one or more holders of Bonds shall have any right in any manner
whatever by virtue or by availing of any provision of the Trust Deed to affect, disturb or
prejudice the rights of any other holder of Bonds, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or
preference to any other such holder or to enforce any right under the Trust Deed, except in the
manner provided in the Trust Deed and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all holders of
Bonds. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Condition 12, each and every
Bondholder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in
equity.

13. MEETINGS OF BONDHOLDERS; MODIFICATION AND WAIVER

The Trust Deed contains provisions for convening meetings of the Bondholders to consider any matter
affecting their interests, including the sanctioning by Ordinary Resolution of a modification of
the Bonds, these provisions or any relevant provisions of the Trust Deed. Such a meeting may be
convened by the Issuer, the Trustee or at the request of Bondholders holding more than 25% in
principal amount of the Bonds for the time being outstanding. The quorum at any such meeting for
passing an Ordinary Resolution is two or more persons holding or representing more than one-half in
principal amount of the Bonds for the time being outstanding, or at any adjourned meeting two or
more persons being or representing Bondholders whatever the principal amount of the Bonds so held
or represented, except that at any meeting the business of which includes the modification of
certain provisions of the Trust Deed, these provisions or the Bonds (including modifying the date
of maturity of the Bonds, reducing or cancelling the amount of interest or principal (including
Early Redemption Amount and Final Redemption Amount) payable in respect of the Bonds, altering the
currency of payment of the Bonds or modifying any provision in respect of the exchange of the
Bonds), the quorum shall be two or more persons holding or representing more than three-quarters in
principal amount of the Bonds for the time being outstanding, or at any adjourned such meeting two
or more persons holding or representing more than one-quarter in principal amount of the Bonds for
the time being outstanding.

An Ordinary Resolution passed at any meeting of the Bondholders shall be binding on all the
Bondholders, whether or not they are present at the meeting. The Trust Deed provides that a written
resolution signed by or on behalf of the holders of not less than 90% in principal amount of Bonds
outstanding shall be as valid and effective as a duly passed Ordinary Resolution. The Trust Deed
provides that the Trustee may, but shall not be obliged to, agree, without the consent of the
Bondholders to any modification (subject to certain exceptions as provided in the Trust Deed) of,
or to any waiver or authorisation of any breach or proposed

Bella — Placing Agreement

Page 75

 

breach of, any of these Terms and Conditions or any of the provisions of the Trust Deed, or may
determine that any condition, event or act which, but for such determination, would constitute an
Event of Default, shall not be treated as such which in any such case, in the opinion of the
Trustee, is not materially prejudicial to the interests of the Bondholders or to any modification
of any of these Terms and Conditions of the Bonds or to any modification of any of the provisions
of the Trust Deed which is (in the opinion of the Trustee) of a formal, minor or technical nature
or which is made to correct a manifest error or to comply with mandatory provisions of law. Any
such modification, waiver, authorisation or determination shall be binding on the Bondholders and,
unless the Trustee agrees otherwise, any such modification shall be notified to the Bondholders as
soon as practicable thereafter in accordance with Condition 15.

In connection with the exercise by it of any of its trusts, powers, authorities or discretions
(including, but without limitation, any modification, waiver, authorisation or substitution), the
Trustee shall have regard to the interests of the Bondholders as a class and, in particular, but
without limitation, need not have regard to the consequences of such exercise for individual
Bondholders resulting from their being for any purpose domiciled or resident in, or otherwise
connected with, or subject to the jurisdiction of, any particular territory and the Trustee shall
not be entitled to require, nor shall any Bondholder be entitled to claim, from the Issuer or any
other person any indemnification or payment in respect of any tax consequence of any such exercise
upon individual Bondholders.

14. REPLACEMENT OF CERTIFICATES

In case any Certificate shall become mutilated, defaced or be apparently destroyed, lost or stolen,
the Issuer in its discretion may execute, and upon a written order and at the cost of the Issuer,
the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, a new Certificate, for an equal principal amount,
bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the mutilated
or defaced Certificate, or in lieu of and substitution for the Certificate so apparently destroyed,
lost or stolen; provided that in the case of a mutilated or defaced Certificate, such Certificate
shall have been surrendered to the Registrar. In every case the applicant for a substitute
Certificate shall furnish to the Issuer and to the Registrar and any agent of the Issuer or the
Registrar such security or indemnity as may be required by them to indemnify and defend and to save
each of them harmless and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, evidence to their
satisfaction of the apparent destruction, loss or theft of such Certificate and of the ownership
thereof.

15. NOTICES

All notices to Bondholders shall be validly given if in writing and mailed by first class mail to
them at their respective addresses in the register of Bondholders maintained by the Registrar. Any
such notice shall be deemed to have been given on the seventh day after being so mailed, as the
case may be.

16. CURRENCY INDEMNITY

US dollars is the sole currency of account and payment for all sums payable by the Issuer under or
in connection with the Bonds, including damages. Any amount received or recovered in a currency
other than US dollars (whether as a result of, or of the enforcement of, a judgment or order of a
court of any jurisdiction, in the insolvency, winding-up or dissolution of the Issuer or otherwise)
by any Bondholder in respect of any sum expressed to be due to it from the Issuer shall only
constitute a discharge to the Issuer to the extent of the US dollar amount which the recipient is
able to purchase with the amount so received or recovered in that other currency on the date of
that receipt or recovery (or, if it is not practicable to make

Bella — Placing Agreement

Page 76

 

that purchase on that date, on the first date on which it is practicable to do so). If that US
dollar amount is less than the US dollar amount expressed to be due to the recipient under any
Bond, the Issuer shall indemnify it against any loss sustained by it as a result. In any event, the
Issuer shall indemnify the recipient against the cost of making any such purchase. For the purposes
of this Condition, it will be sufficient for the Bondholder to demonstrate that it would have
suffered a loss had an actual purchase been made. These indemnities constitute a separate and
independent obligation from the Issuer’s other obligations, shall give rise to a separate and
independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by any Bondholder
and shall continue in full force and effect despite any other judgment, order, claim or proof for a
liquidated amount in respect of any sum due under any Bond or any other judgment or order.

17. SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF THE TRUST DEED

If at any time (i) the Issuer shall have paid or caused to be paid the Redemption Amount (together
with all accrued but unpaid interest) of on, all the Bonds outstanding, as and when the same shall
have become due and payable, or (ii) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation all Bonds theretofore authenticated (other than any Bonds which shall have been
destroyed, lost or stolen and which shall have been replaced or paid as provided in Condition 14)
the Trust Deed shall cease to be of further effect (except as to any surviving rights of
conversion, registration of transfer or exchange of Bonds and any other provisions therein
expressly provided for and, if applicable, any right to receive Additional Amounts under Condition
9), and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper
instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of the Trust Deed.

18. AGENTS

The names of the initial Exchange Agents, the initial Registrar, the initial Transfer Agents and
the initial Paying Agents and their specified offices are set out in the Trust Deed or the Agency
Agreement. The Issuer reserves the right, subject to the prior written approval of the Trustee, at
any time to vary or terminate the appointment of any Exchange Agent, Transfer Agent or Paying Agent
in accordance with the Agency Agreement and to appoint additional or other Exchange Agents,
Transfer Agents, or Paying Agents, provided that the Issuer will at all times maintain the
Registrar and all Transfer Agents outside of the United Kingdom and Hong Kong, such Registrar will
maintain the Bond Register outside of the United Kingdom and Hong Kong and the Issuer will at all
times maintain a Paying Agent in London and, provided, further, that, upon the implementation of
the Directive or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such
Directive, the Issuer will maintain a Paying Agent in a Member State of the European Union that is
not obliged to withhold or deduct tax pursuant to such Directive or law. Notice of any such
termination or appointment, of any changes in the specified offices of the Exchange Agents, the
Transfer Agents, or the Paying Agents and of any change in the identity of the Registrar, the
Principal Agent or the Principal Exchange Agent will be given promptly by the Issuer to the
Bondholders in accordance with Condition 15.

19. INDEMNIFICATION

The Trust Deed contains provisions that the Issuer covenants to indemnify the Trustee for itself
and on behalf of its officers, directors, employees and agents, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, for, and to hold the Trustee (for itself and on behalf of such Persons) harmless
against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without willful misconduct, willful default, gross
negligence, fraud, breach of trust in relation to the Trustee’s duties under the Trust Deed or
breach of duty on such Person’s part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or
administration of the Trust Deed or the trusts thereunder and its duties

Bella — Placing Agreement

Page 77

 

thereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against or investigating any claim
of liability in the premises. The obligations of the Issuer under the Trust Deed to compensate and
indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for properly incurred expenses,
disbursements and advances shall constitute additional Indebtedness under the Trust Deed and shall
survive the satisfaction and discharge of the Trust Deed or the resignation or removal of the
Trustee. Such additional Indebtedness shall be a senior claim to that of the Bonds upon all
property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the
benefit of the holders of particular Bonds, and the Bonds are subordinated to such senior claim.

20. GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

The Bonds, the Trust Deed, the Agency Agreement and any non-contractual obligations arising out of
or in connection with them are governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with, the laws of
England and Wales. In relation to any legal action or proceedings arising out of or in connection
with the Trust Deed, the Agency Agreement and the Bonds, the Issuer has in the Trust Deed and the
Agency Agreement irrevocably submitted to the jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales. The
Issuer has appointed Law Debenture Corporate Services Limited of 5th Floor, 100 Wood Street, London
EC2V 7EX, United Kingdom as its agent for service of process.

evidence to the Company’s reasonable satisfaction of the apparent destruction, loss or theft of
such Warrant Certificate and of the ownership thereof.

22. Exercise of warrants

22.1 Subject to clause 4.2 below, each Warrant may be exercised at any time prior to the fifth
Business Days prior to the date of the Qualified IPO and shall otherwise not be exercisable in any
other circumstances.

22.2 All Warrants shall automatically lapse to the extent they remain outstanding on the Expiry
Date. On the Expiry Date, all unexercised Warrants shall immediately cease to be outstanding and
the Warrantholders shall have no rights in respect of such Warrants or under this Instrument from
the Expiry Date.

22.3 A Warrant may only be exercised by the Warrantholder:

	(a)	 	lodging at the Specified Office the relevant Warrant Certificate together with:

	 	(i)	 	a duly completed Warrantholder’s Notice;

	 	(ii)	 	if the Warrant Shares are to be issued to a nominee of, or
trustee for, the Warrantholder, the name and address of such nominee or trustee
to be set out in such Warrantholder’s Notice; and

	 	(iii)	 	if the Warrant Shares are to be delivered otherwise than to a
specified securities account, the address to which the certificate of the
Warrant Shares should be dispatched on the date of the Qualified IPO; and

	(b)	 	paying the Exercise Price to the Company’s account (details of which shall be notified to the
Warrantholders prior to the fifth Business Day prior to the date of the Qualified IPO pursuant
to clause 6.1(e) below),

in each case, no later than the fifth Business Day prior to the date of the Qualified IPO. For the
avoidance of doubt, an Exercise Notice must be in respect of the full exercise of a Warrantholder’s
Warrants.

22.4 A Warrantholder’s Notice once lodged in accordance with this clause 4 shall be irrevocable.

23. Completion

23.1 On the date of the Qualified IPO and subject to compliance with clause 4.3 by the relevant
Warrantholder, the Number of Shares shall be allotted and issued fully paid to the relevant
Warrantholder (or to its nominee or trustee) in respect of each Warrant. No Warrant Shares may be
allotted and issued to a person other than the Warrantholder, its nominee or trustee except with
the consent of the Company (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, it being understood
that: (i) consent may not be withheld with respect to allotment and issue to one of the Affiliates
of the Warrantholder (except such consent may be withheld pursuant to sub-clause (ii) below)
provided that such Affiliate remains an Affiliate of such Warrantholder after the allotment and
issue; and (ii) consent may be withheld with respect to allotment and issue to any Person who or
whose Affiliate is engaged in any business activity that competes with the business of the Company
and the Restricted Subsidiaries or with respect to any allotment which would or might, in the
reasonable opinion of the Company,

have a material adverse effect on the Company’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s ability to comply
with applicable gaming regulatory requirements).

23.2 The Company shall take all necessary action (including any action which may be required under
Cayman Islands law) to procure the allotment and issue of fully paid Warrant Shares to the relevant
Warrantholder (or to its nominee or trustee) in respect of each Warrant in accordance with
prevailing laws and regulations relevant to the issue of fully paid Shares to such Warrantholder.
The Company shall take all necessary action to procure that Warrant Shares are deposited into the
specified securities accounts of all Warrantholders specified in the Warrantholder’s Notices on or
prior to 10:00 am (Hong Kong time) on the date of the Qualified IPO unless a Warrantholder shall
otherwise notify the Company in accordance with clause 4.3(a)(iii) that delivery shall be made
otherwise than to a specified securities account in which case the Company shall procure that share
certificate(s) (registered in the name of the Warrantholder or its nominee or trustee) shall be
issued and dispatched by ordinary post and at the risk of the Warrantholder to the Warrantholder
(or its nominee or trustee) on the date of the Qualified IPO, provided that the Warrantholder’s
Notices are lodged in accordance with clause 4.3. In the event the Company has not received a duly
completed Warrantholder’s Notice in respect of any Warrant Share issuable with respect to a Warrant
in accordance with clause 4.3, the Company shall nonetheless on the date of the Qualified IPO cause
such Warrant Shares to be issued and allotted to the Warrantholder of such Warrant and the share
certificate of such Warrant Shares deliverable to such Warrantholder to be made available for
collection by such Warrantholder at the office of the share registrar of Sands China in Hong Kong
subject to the deposit of the relevant Warrant Certificate(s) by such Warrantholder at the
Specified Office and payment of the Exercise Price by the Warrantholder to the Company’s account
referred to in clause 6.1(e)(ii) below.

23.3 Subject to compliance with clause 4.3 by the relevant Warrantholder, the relevant
Warrantholder’s name (or its nominee or trustee’s name, as appropriate) shall be entered in the
register of members of Sands China as the holder of the Warrant Shares issued to it and the person
identified by the Warrantholder pursuant to clause 22.3(a)(ii) shall be issued, free of charge,
share certificate(s) in respect of the Warrant Shares issued to it.

23.4 The Warrant Shares allotted pursuant to the exercise of the Warrant(s) shall:

	(a)	 	be free from any Lien or any other third party right and be freely transferable;
	 
	(b)	 	be duly and validly allotted and issued fully paid and be non-assessable;
	 
	(c)	 	not be subject to calls for further funds;
	 
	(d)	 	rank pari passu with the fully paid Shares then in issue; and

	(e)	 	rank for any dividend or other distribution which has been previously announced or declared
if the date by which the holder of shares must be registered to participate in such dividend
or other distribution is after the date of the Qualified IPO.

24. Covenants and Undertakings

24.1 The Company undertakes that whilst any Warrant is outstanding, except with the sanction of an
Ordinary Resolution, it will comply with all covenants and undertakings set out Conditions 3.9,

SNB shall make available to the Borrower, commencing on the Effective Date and until the
Termination Date, Advances under the Term Loan in the aggregate maximum principal amount not to
exceed Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) (the “Term Loan Commitment”); provided, however, there
shall be no re-advances of principal once the Term Loan has been fully advanced.

          (a) Generally. On the Effective Date subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein, SNB shall provide to the Borrower the Loan in the form of one or more Advances under the
Term Loan Facility which shall be used by the Borrower as set forth herein and the initial Advance
shall occur on the Effective Date and shall be in the amount $2,500,000, including the existing
principal balance of $1,204,616.71. The Borrower shall not be permitted to reborrow any amount or
any portion of any amount repaid by the Borrower under this Term Loan. The principal balance of
the Loan shall bear interest at the Applicable Rate, which is National Prime Rate plus one percent
(1%) but in no event shall the Applicable Rate be less than five percent (5%). The Applicable Rate
shall be adjusted on the same date of any change in the National Prime Rate.

          (b) Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Lender agrees to
make Advances on the Loan to the Borrower from time to time in an aggregate principal amount that
will not result in (i) the principal balance due under the Loan exceeding fifty percent (50%) of
the Pledged Collateral Market Value.

          (c) Principal And Interest Payments. Commencing with the first day of September,
2009, and on the first day of each month thereafter until the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall pay
all accrued interest on the Term Loan due as of the date of payment. All principal and unpaid
interest shall become fully due and payable on December 31, 2009.

          (d) Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, the Borrower shall pay interest, on the unpaid principal balance under the Note at a rate
equal to the National Prime Rate plus seven percent (7%).

          (e) Term Note. The obligations of the Borrower to repay the aggregate outstanding
principal under the Term Loan and to pay accrued interest, fees and expenses thereon shall be
evidenced by a promissory note, in a principal amount equal to the Term Loan Commitment, in form
and substance satisfactory to SNB, to be executed and delivered to SNB concurrently with the
execution and delivery of this Agreement (as amended, the “Term Note”). SNB is hereby authorized to
record the date, type, and amount of each Advance, the date and amount of each payment or
prepayment of principal thereof, on the schedule annexed to and constituting a part of the Term
Note, and any such recordation shall constitute prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the
information so recorded absent manifest error, provided that neither the failure to record nor any
error in such recordation shall affect the Borrower’s obligations under the Term Note.

12

 

     SECTION 2.02. NOT USED

     SECTION 2.03. Prepayments. (a) The Borrower shall have the right to prepay an
Advance, in whole or in part, without penalty or premium, at any time.

          (b) All prepayments under this Section 2.03 shall be made without set-off, deduction or
counterclaim, shall include payment of any accrued and unpaid interest and fees in respect of the
Loan and (if applicable), and applications of prepayments to principal shall first be applied to
any installment of principal then due, and then be applied to the principal due in the reverse
order of maturity, and no partial prepayment shall relieve the Borrower of the obligation to pay
each subsequent installment of principal when due.

     SECTION 2.04. Late Charges. Any payment owed by the Borrower under any Loan Document
not made by the Borrower within 10 days of the date when due shall, at the option of SNB, bear late
charges thereon calculated at a rate equal to five percent (5%) of each deliquent payment (
“Late Charge”).

     SECTION 2.05. Payments and Computations. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment
hereunder, irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off, not later than 1:00 P.M. (Oklahoma
time) on the day when due to SNB.

          (b) Whenever any payment due hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be stated to be
due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business
Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of
interest or fee, as the case may be; provided, however, that such extension of time
shall not be applicable for purposes of calculating or complying with any of the covenants
contained herein.

          (c) All computations by SNB shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest
error. Both principal and interest are payable in lawful money of the United States of America and
in immediately available funds.

     SECTION 2.06. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by the Borrower under any Loan Document
to or for the account of SNB shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.05 or the applicable

SNB in lieu of net income taxes, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which SNB is organized or
doing business (other than as a result of the making of the Advances) or any political subdivision
thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and
liabilities in respect of payments under any Loan Document being hereinafter referred to as
“Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect
of any sum payable under any Loan Document to SNB, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be
necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to
additional sums payable under this Section 2.06) SNB receives an amount equal to

13

 

the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make
such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation
authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

          (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or
any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made
under any Loan Document or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performing under, or
otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the Note(s) or any other documents to be delivered
hereunder (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

          (c) The Borrower shall indemnify SNB for and hold it harmless against the full amount of Taxes
or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, taxes of any kind imposed or asserted by any
jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.06) imposed on or paid by SNB (as the case may
be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with
respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date SNB makes written
demand therefore.

          (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the Borrower shall furnish to SNB,
at its address referred to in Section 7.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt
evidencing such payment to the extent such a receipt is issued therefor, or other written proof of
payment thereof that is reasonably satisfactory to SNB.

anyone acting on behalf of any such Person, has directly or indirectly offered any interest in the
