(f)                                    Upon the expiration of the Datai Bay Selling Period, provided that the Substantial Disposal has taken place, Datai Bay shall transfer 20% of the Datai Bay Remaining Shares to 2020 EP as payment of Performance Fee relating to the Datai Bay Remaining Shares. If the Substantial Disposal has not taken place, 2020 EP shall not be entitled to any Performance Fee relating to the Datai Bay Remaining Shares.

 

(g)                                 For the avoidance of doubt, 2020 EP shall not be entitled to any Performance Fee if Datai Bay does not receive in full, its entitlements under Clauses 7.4(a), (b) and (c) and any entitlement Datai Bay may have and is payable under Clauses 7.4(d), (e) and (f).

 

7.5                                 The Datai Bay Hurdle Rate Amount is to be calculated on the following basis:-

 

	
Investment Amounts aggregating to   US$47,586,456
    	
x
    	
8% per annum compounded annually from date of investment for each bond   as set out in Schedule 4 until 28 February 2011 (“Redemption   Payment Date”)

= Datai Bay Hurdle Rate Amount
    	
 
    	
 
    

 

PROVIDED ALWAYS THAT if the Block Trade(s) are undertaken in stages, the Balance Investment Amount (in the formula above) shall decrease to reflect the repayment of the Balance Investment Amount from receipt of net proceeds of sale and the calculation of the Datai Bay Hurdle Rate Amount would be cumulative in nature i.e. inclusive of all the Datai Bay Hurdle Rate Amount calculated up to the date of repayment of the Balance Investment Amount.

 

7.6                                 Performance Fee payable by SHK shall be calculated in accordance with the formula below:

 

	
α    =
    	
 
    	
Total net proceeds from sale of the Underlying Assets sold by SHK   within the SHK Selling Period

less (-) Investment Amount of US$4,704,198.94
    	
 
    	
 
    

 

α x  20%  = Performance Fee

 

PROVIDED ALWAYS THAT the Performance Fee is only payable if α (after deducting Performance Fees) exceeds the SHK Hurdle Rate Amount to be calculated as set out in Clause 7.7.

 

α shall be net of all legal expenses directly related to SHK as a selling shareholder including but not limited to: (A) any fees or expenses of the Depositary associated with the deposit of Underlying Assets or the transfer of ADSs, (B) any underwriting brokerage or other selling charge or commission, (C) any legal fees or expenses of SHK associated with any Block Trade, (D) any stock transfer, stamp duties and applicable US taxes relating directly or indirectly to the sale of the Underlying Assets by SHK, and (E) any fees or expenses relating to the negotiation and documentation of this Deed (subject, in the case of this sub-clause (E) only, to a cap of US$50,000).

 

The above Performance Fee is payable by SHK at the expiration of the SHK Selling Period in cash and/or by a transfer of the Underlying Assets. It is the sole discretion of SHK to determine whether to pay the Performance Fee wholly in cash, or wholly by a transfer of the Underlying Assets, or partly in cash and partly by a transfer of the

Underlying Assets. If Underlying Assets are to be transferred by SHK to 2020 EP, their value shall be equivalent to such number of Underlying Assets transferred by SHK to 2020 EP multiplied by the SHK Final Price.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, SHK shall have the full discretion as to whether, how and when to dispose of the SHK Exchanged Shares. 2020 EP shall not challenge the decisions made by SHK.

 

7.7                                 The SHK Hurdle Rate Amount is to be calculated on the following basis:-

 

	
Outstanding principal amount of each SHK Bond
    	
 
    	
x
    	
 
    	
8% per annum compounded annually from the date of accrual of each SHK   Bond until the expiration of the Lock-up Period

8% per annum compounded annually from the expiration of the Lock-up   Period until the date SHK receives the net proceeds of sale from the   Underlying Assets which are first applied towards the repayment of the   Balance Investment Amount
    

 

=  SHK Hurdle Rate Amount

 

PROVIDED ALWAYS THAT if the sale of the SHK Exchanged Shares are undertaken in stages, the Balance Investment Amount (in the formula above) shall decrease to reflect the repayment of the Balance Investment Amount from receipt of net proceeds of sale and the calculation of the SHK Hurdle Rate Amount would be cumulative in nature i.e. inclusive of all the SHK Hurdle Rate Amount calculated up to the date of repayment of the Balance Investment Amount.

 

7.8                                 2020 CH and 2020 EP agree that the Investment Management Agreement shall terminate and cease to have any further effect upon the IPO PROVIDED ALWAYS THAT such termination shall be without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any of the parties thereto which shall have accrued prior to such termination.  For avoidance of doubt (and by way of example and not limitation) the Parties agree that no Management Fee shall accrue or accumulate after the IPO Date.

 

7.9                                 2020 EP hereby agrees that any Underlying Assets transferred by Datai Bay or SHK shall be subject to 2020 EP’s agreement to accept such Underlying Assets on all conditions required (in the reasonable view of Datai Bay or SHK, as applicable) to ensure the availability of an exemption from registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in respect of any such transfer.

 

7.10                           The definition of “Stock Exchange” and all references to “KOSDAQ (Korean Securities Dealers Automated Quotations)” in, and Clauses 5.3 to 5.6 of, the Investment Management Agreement shall be deemed to be amended by the provisions set out in this Clause 7.

Each of the Parties agrees to do and execute or procure to be done and executed all such further acts, deeds, documents and things as may be reasonable and appropriate for such Party to do or execute or procure to be done in order to give full effect to the terms of this Deed.

 

9.                                      ASSIGNMENT AND SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS

 

This Deed shall be binding on and enure to the benefit of each Party’s successors in title and (subject to the other provisions of this Deed) permitted assigns provided that the benefits and obligations or any part thereof bestowed upon each Party to this Deed shall not be capable of being assigned, transferred, encumbered or otherwise disposed of except with the prior written consent of the other Party (which consent may be granted or withheld at the other Party’s absolute discretion).

 

10.                               COSTS AND EXPENSES

12.2                        The restrictions contained in Clause 12.1 shall not apply so as to prevent any Party from making any disclosure required by law or legal process by any securities exchange or supervisory or regulatory or governmental body pursuant to rules to which any Party is subject (provided that the requirements of Clause 12.3 are complied with) or from making any disclosure to any professional adviser for the purposes of obtaining advice (provided always that the provisions of Clause 12 shall apply to, and the relevant Party shall procure that they apply to and are observed in relation to, the use or disclosure by such professional adviser of the information provided to him) nor shall the restrictions apply in respect of any information which comes into the public domain otherwise than by a breach of Clause 12 by any of the Parties.

Without limiting the foregoing, no waiver by any Party of any breach of any provision hereof shall be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of that or any other provision hereof.

Condition 8A

 

MANDATORY SURRENDER AND EXCHANGE OF THE BOND ON OR BEFORE IPO

 

8A.1                      Unless redeemed prior to the mandatory exchange as described below, the entire outstanding principal amount of the Bond shall be mandatorily surrendered to the Issuer and exchanged on or before the IPO Date for ordinary shares of US$0.0001 each in AGL, each (hereinafter referred to in this Condition 8A.1 as “shares” or “ordinary shares”) (subject to any adjustments for splits, recapitalizations and other organic changes prior to the IPO Date) as follows:

the (“Mandatory  Exchange”), subject to the provisions of Condition 8A and all applicable laws, regulations, rules (including applicable listing rules) and any other requirements of the relevant stock exchange or other relevant authorities. In the event that the Mandatory Exchange has taken place but the IPO does not subsequently follow, the Issuer shall procure that AGL shall exchange the ordinary shares it has issued to each former holder of the exchanged Bonds in return for new Bonds that shall contain all of the terms and conditions of the exchanged Bonds in order to restore the status quo anti and shall otherwise be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory in all respect to the former holders of the exchanged Bonds.  For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that any hurdle rate calculations made with respect to the new Bonds shall be determined as if the new Bonds had been issued as of the date the exchanged Bonds were issued and the Mandatory Exchange had not taken place.

 

8A.2                     The number of Underlying Assets into which the Bond is exchangeable upon the Mandatory Exchange shall be calculated on the basis of the following formula:

 

	
Amount of outstanding principal amount of
