Amendment No. 1 to Undertaking Agreement [Li Related Holders]

This Amendment No. 1 to Undertaking Agreement (this “Amendment”) is made and entered into as of September 26, 2008, by and among Heckmann Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), China Water and Drinks, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) and the Persons and Entities listed on Schedule A hereto (each a “Selling Stockholder,” and collectively, the “Selling Stockholders”), and amends that certain Undertaking Agreement (the “Agreement”) by and among Parent, the Company and the Selling Stockholders dated as of May 19, 2008.

A. Parent, Heckmann Acquisition II Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”) and the Company have entered into an agreement and plan of merger and reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company will be merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”) with the Company ceasing to exist and Merger Sub remaining as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.

B. In light of extraordinary conditions in world credit and capital markets, the desire of Parent to preserve its cash in light of these conditions, the de minimis price paid for Company Common Stock by the Selling Stockholders, and other factors, the Selling Stockholders have agreed to sell all of their shares of Company Common Stock, whether owned directly or indirectly, to Parent immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger at a price significantly lower than the Merger consideration.

C. Pursuant to Section 5.3 of the Agreement, Parent, the Company and a majority in interest of the Selling Stockholders may amend the Agreement by signing an instrument in writing.

D. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Agreement.

Now therefore, in accordance with the procedures for amendment of the Agreement set forth in Section 5.3 thereof, and in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual agreements herein set forth, the parties hereby agree as follows:

 

1.1 Recital F of the Agreement is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

 

“The Selling Stockholders desire to sell their Shares to Parent and provide a general release of claims against the Company, Parent and Merger Sub.”

 

1.2 Section 1 of the Agreement is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

 

“SECTION 1: Sale and Purchase of Shares.

 

1.1 Sale. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Closing”):

 

1.1(a)  The Selling Stockholders shall sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Parent, and Parent shall purchase from the Selling Stockholders, the Shares, free and clear of any and all Liens. The Shares constitute 100% of the Shares held, beneficially and of record, by the Selling Stockholders. Each Selling Stockholder will execute such further instruments and provide such further information, including tax declarations, as Parent shall reasonably request in connection with the foregoing.
