The operations of SCSI and the SCSI Subsidiaries are and have been conducted at all times in compliance with applicable financial record-keeping and reporting requirements of the money laundering statutes of all U.S. and non-U.S. jurisdictions, the rules and regulations thereunder and any related or similar rules, regulations or guidelines, issued, administered or enforced by any governmental body (collectively, the “Money Laundering Laws”) and no action, suit or Proceeding by or before any court or governmental agency, authority or body or any arbitrator involving SCSI or the SCSI Subsidiaries with respect to the Money Laundering Laws is pending or, to the Knowledge of SCSI or the SCSI Shareholder, threatened.
     2.24 PRC Representations. On or before the Closing, the agreements as described in Schedule 2.24 (collectively, the “Restructuring Agreements”), which effectively give SCSI control over Hubei Jinglong’s business and management as if Hubei Jinlong were a wholly-owned subsidiary of SCSI, will be validly entered into by the parties thereto and in compliance with relevant PRC Laws and regulations, and all necessary approvals in connection with the Restructuring Agreements will have been obtained. All material consents, approvals, authorizations or licenses requisite under PRC law for the due and proper establishment and SCSI’s effective control over the business and management of Hubei Jinlong pursuant to the Restructuring Agreements will have been duly obtained from the relevant PRC governmental authorities and are in full force and effect, except where the failure to obtain such consents, approvals, authorizations or licenses does not, and would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. All filings and registrations with the PRC governmental authorities required in respect of SCSI’s effective control over the business and management of Hubei Jinlong, its capital structure and operations pursuant to the Restructuring Agreements, including, without limitation, to the extent applicable, tax bureau and customs authorities, will have been duly completed in accordance with the relevant PRC rules and regulations, except where the failure to complete such filings and registrations does not, and would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. Other than pursuant to the Restructuring Agreements, there are no outstanding rights of, or commitments made by SCSI or any SCSI Subsidiary to sell any equity interests. The SCSI Subsidiaries organized in and operate from the PRC have each conducted their respective businesses in compliance with all relevant legal requirements and with all requisite licenses and approvals granted by competent PRC governmental authorities other than such non-compliance that do not, and would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. As to licenses, approvals and government grants and concessions requisite or material for the conduct of the operations of Hubei Jinlong which may be subject to periodic renewal, neither SCSI nor the SCSI Shareholder has any Knowledge of any grounds on which such requisite renewals will not be granted by the relevant PRC governmental authorities. All necessary steps have been taken to comply with, and to ensure compliance by, each of SCSI’s and the SCSI Subsidiaries’ stockholders, option holders, directors, officers, and employees that are, or are directly or indirectly owned or controlled by, a PRC resident or citizen, with any applicable rules and regulations of the relevant PRC government agencies (including, without limitation, the Ministry of Commerce, National

 


 

Development and Reform Commission and the State Administration of Foreign Exchange) relating to overseas investment by PRC residents and citizens or overseas listing by offshore special purpose vehicles controlled directly or indirectly by PRC companies and individuals (the “PRC Overseas Investment and Listing Regulations”), including, without limitation, ensuring that each such stockholder, option holder, director, officer and employee that is, or is directly or indirectly owned or controlled by, a PRC resident or citizen, complete any registration and other procedures required under applicable PRC Overseas Investment and Listing Regulations.

The SCSI Shareholder acknowledges that the Odimo Shares will not be registered pursuant to the Securities Act or any applicable Laws, that the Odimo Shares will be characterized as “restricted securities” under federal securities Laws, and that under such Laws and applicable regulations the Odimo Shares cannot be sold or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom. In this regard, the SCSI Shareholder is familiar with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, as currently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act. Further, the SCSI Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that:
          (a) The SCSI Shareholder is acquiring the Odimo Shares for investment, for its own account and not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and it has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. The SCSI Shareholder further represents that it does not have any Contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participation to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of the Odimo Shares.
          (b) The SCSI Shareholder understands that the Odimo Shares are not registered under the Securities Act on the ground that the sale and the issuance of securities hereunder is exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof, and that Odimo’s reliance on such exemption is predicated on the SCSI Shareholder’s representations set forth herein.

Accordingly, the SCSI Shareholder agrees to notify Odimo of any events which would cause the representations and warranties of the SCSI Shareholder to be untrue or breached at any time after the execution of this Agreement by the SCSI Shareholder and prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period.
     2.27 Investment Risk. The SCSI Shareholder is able to bear the economic risk of acquiring the Odimo Shares pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including a complete loss of the SCSI Shareholder’s investment in the Odimo Shares.
     2.28 Restrictive Legends. The SCSI Shareholder acknowledges that the certificate(s) representing the SCSI Shareholder’s pro rata portion of the Odimo Shares shall each conspicuously set forth on the face or back thereof a legend in substantially the following form, corresponding to the stockholder’s status as set forth in Section 2.26 and the signature pages hereto:
REGULATION D LEGEND:
“THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AS TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SAID ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.”
REGULATION S LEGEND:
“THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF REGULATION S PROMULGATED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, OR PURSUANT TO ANOTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION; HEDGING TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY NOT BE CONDUCTED UNLESS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE SECURITIES ACT.”
     2.29 Shell Company Status. The SCSI Shareholder has been furnished with and has carefully read the Public Reports filed by Odimo with the Commission during the preceding two years. With respect to individual or partnership tax and other economic considerations involved in this investment, the SCSI Shareholder confirms that it is not relying on Odimo (or any agent or representative of Odimo). The SCSI Shareholder has carefully considered and have, to the extent such persons believe such discussion necessary, discussed with their own legal, tax, accounting and financial advisers the suitability of an investment in the stock for such particular tax and financial situation. The SCSI Shareholder acknowledges that Odimo is a “shell company” as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act with no operations and no significant assets excepting the Cash Assets and that, as a result, the value of the SCSI Equity Interest far exceeds the value of the Odimo Shares under any recognized criteria of value. The SCSI Shareholder further acknowledges that it is aware of the quoted prices for the common stock of Odimo on the OTC Bulletin Board but understands there is no active Trading Market for such shares, quotations on the OTC Bulletin Board represent inter-dealer prices without retail mark-up, mark-down, or commission, and may not represent actual transactions, and there is no liquid Trading Market for the Odimo Common Stock, and that, as a result, neither Odimo nor Elao is providing any assurance that the

 


 

SCSI Shareholder will be able to sell the Odimo Shares.
     2.30 Financial Statements/Absence of Undisclosed Liabilities. The audited financial statements for fiscal years ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 and the unaudited financial statements for the fiscal quarters ended December 31, 2009, March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010 (collectively, the “Hubei Jinlong Financial Statements”) of Hubei Jinlong have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved, except as may be otherwise specified in such financial statements or the notes thereto and except that unaudited financial statements may not contain all footnotes required by GAAP, and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal, immaterial, year-end audit adjustments. Hubei Jinlong has no debt, obligation or liability (whether accrued, absolute, contingent, liquidated or otherwise, whether due or to become due) arising out of any transaction entered into at or prior to the Closing Date or any act or omission at or prior to the Closing Date, except to the extent set forth on or reserved against on the Hubei Jinlong Financial Statements. All debts, obligations or liabilities owing by directors, officers and employees of Hubei Jinlong included in the Financial Statements (the “Affiliate Loans”) shall be repaid in full in cash prior to the Closing.
     2.31 OFAC. Neither SCSI nor any SCSI Subsidiary nor any SCSI Shareholder (i) is a Person whose property or interest in property is blocked or subject to blocking pursuant to Section 1 of Executive Order 13224 of September 23, 2001 Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism (66 Fed.

Odimo is duly qualified to conduct business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation or other entity in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, as the case may be, could not have or reasonably be expected to result in a

 


 

Material Adverse Effect, and no Proceeding has been instituted in any such jurisdiction revoking, limiting or curtailing or seeking to revoke, limit or curtail such power and authority or qualification. Schedule 3.1 sets forth a true, correct and complete list of Odimo’s jurisdictions of organization and each other jurisdiction in which Odimo presently conducts its businesses or own, hold and operate its properties and assets.

     3.5 Consents and Approvals; No Conflicts. Except for applicable requirements of federal securities Laws and state securities or blue-sky Laws, no filing with, and no permit, authorization, consent or approval of, any third party, public body or Governmental Authority is necessary for the consummation by Odimo or the Odimo Stockholder of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Transaction Documents by Odimo and the Odimo Stockholder nor the consummation by Odimo and the Odimo Stockholder of the transactions contemplated thereby, nor compliance by them with any of the provisions thereof, will (a) conflict with or result in any breach of any provisions of the charter or bylaws (or operating agreement) of Odimo or the Odimo Stockholder, (b) result in a violation or breach of, or constitute (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both) a default (or give rise to any right of termination, cancellation or acceleration) under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, license, Contract, agreement or other instrument or obligation to which Odimo is a party or by which any of their respective properties or assets may be bound, (c) violate any Order, writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule or regulation applicable to Odimo, or any of its properties or assets, or (d) contravene, conflict with, or result in a violation of, the terms or requirements of, or give any Governmental Authority the right to revoke, withdraw, suspend, cancel, terminate or modify, any licenses, permits, authorizations, approvals, franchises or other rights held by Odimo or that otherwise relate to the business of, or any of the properties or assets owned or used by except in the case of clauses (b), (c) and (d) for any such

 


 

contraventions, conflicts, violations, or other occurrences as would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
     3.6 Filings, Consents and Approvals. Neither Odimo nor the Odimo Stockholder is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other Governmental Authority or other Person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by Odimo or the Odimo Stockholder of this Agreement, other than the filing by Odimo of a Current Report on Form 8-K, the Information Statement and Form D with the Commission and such filings as are required to be made under applicable state securities Laws.

Other than as set forth in Schedule 3.8, Odimo has not issued any capital stock since its most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act. No Person has any right of first refusal, preemptive right, right of participation, or any similar right to participate in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. There are no outstanding options, warrants, scrip rights to subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or securities, rights or obligations convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or giving any Person any right to subscribe for or acquire any shares of Odimo’s common stock, or Contracts, commitments, understandings or arrangements by which Odimo or any Odimo Subsidiary is or may become bound to issue additional shares of Odimo’s common stock or Common Stock Equivalents. The issuance of the Odimo Shares will not obligate Odimo to issue shares of Odimo’s common stock or other securities to any Person (other than the SCSI Shareholder) and will not result in a right of any holder of Odimo securities to adjust the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price under any of such securities. All of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Odimo are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, have been issued in compliance with all Laws, and none of such outstanding shares was issued in violation of any preemptive rights or similar rights to subscribe for or purchase securities. No further approval or authorization of any stockholder or Odimo’s Board of Directors is required for the issuance of the Odimo Shares. There are no stockholders agreements, voting agreements or other similar agreements with respect to Odimo’s capital stock to which Odimo is a party or, to the Knowledge of Odimo or the Odimo Stockholder, between or among any of Odimo’s stockholders. “Common Stock Equivalents” means any securities of Odimo or the Odimo Subsidiaries which would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Odimo’s common stock, including, without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, rights, options, warrants or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive Odimo’s common stock.

any and all interest, penalties and expenses whatsoever reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever) and losses (each, a “Claim” and collectively “Claims”) to which it or they may become subject arising out of, related to or based on either: (i) any breach of or inaccuracy in any of the representations and warranties or covenants or conditions made by Odimo and/or the Odimo Stockholder herein in this Agreement; or (ii) any and all liabilities arising out of, related to or in connection with: (A) any of the assets of Odimo prior to the Closing; or (B) the operations of Odimo prior to the Closing.

          (c) The party claiming indemnification under sections (a) or (b) is hereinafter referred to as the “Indemnified Party” and the party against whom such Claims are asserted hereunder is hereinafter referred to as the “Indemnifying Party”.
     4.2 Survival of Representations and Warranties. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the representations and warranties given or made by Odimo, the Odimo Stockholder, SCSI or the SCSI Shareholder under this Agreement shall survive for a period of eighteen (18) months from and after the Closing Date (the last day of such period is herein referred to as the “Expiration Date”), except that any written claim for breach thereof made and delivered prior to the Expiration Date to the party against whom such indemnification is sought shall survive thereafter and, as to any such claim, such applicable expiration will not effect the rights to indemnification of the party making such claim; provided, however, that any representations and warranties that were fraudulently made shall not expire on the Expiration Date and shall survive indefinitely, and claims with respect to fraud by Odimo, the Odimo Stockholder, SCSI or the SCSI Shareholder may be made at any time.
     4.3 Method of Asserting Claims, Etc. All Claims for indemnification by any Indemnified Party under this Article 4 shall be asserted as follows:
          (a) In the event that any Claim or demand for which an Indemnifying Party would be liable to an Indemnified Party hereunder is asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party by a third party, said Indemnified Party shall, within ten (10) business days from the date upon which the Indemnified Party has Knowledge of such Claim, notify the Indemnifying Party of such Claim or demand, specifying the nature of and specific basis for such Claim or demand and the amount or the estimated amount thereof to the extent then feasible (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Claim or demand) (the “Claim Notice”). The Indemnified Party’s failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of liability hereunder unless such failure materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend against the Claim or demand. The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days from the giving of the Claim Notice (the “Notice Period”) to notify the Indemnified Party: (i) whether or not the Indemnifying Party disputes the liability of the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party hereunder with respect to such Claim or demand, and (ii) whether or not the Indemnifying Party desires, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, to defend the Indemnified Party against such Claims or demand; provided, however, that any Indemnified Party is hereby authorized prior to and during the Notice Period to file any motion, answer or other pleading which he shall deem necessary or appropriate to protect his interests or those of the Indemnifying Party and not prejudicial to the Indemnifying Party. In the event that the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the Notice Period that he

 


 

does not dispute liability for indemnification under this Article 4 and that he desires to defend the Indemnified Party against such Claim or demand and except as hereinafter provided, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be promptly settled or prosecuted by him to a final conclusion. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party except to the extent that the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Indemnifying Party in writing, the Indemnifying Party has failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel or in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of such separate counsel, a material conflict on any material issue between the position of the Indemnifying Party and the position of such Indemnified Party (a “Material Conflict”). If requested by the Indemnifying Party and there is no Material Conflict, the Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and his counsel in contesting any Claim or demand which the Indemnifying Party elects to contest or, if appropriate and related to the Claim in question, in making any Counterclaim against the Person asserting the third party Claim or demand, or any cross-complaint against any Person. No Claim for which indemnity is sought hereunder and for which the Indemnifying Party has acknowledged liability for indemnification under this Article 5 may be settled without the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
          (b) In the event any Indemnified Party should have a Claim against any Indemnifying Party hereunder which does not involve a Claim or demand being asserted against or sought to be collected from him by a third party, the Indemnified Party shall give a Claim Notice with respect to such Claim to the Indemnifying Party. If, after receipt of a Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within the Notice Period that he disputes such Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have admitted liability for such Claim in the amount set forth in the Claim Notice.
     4.4 Sole Remedy; Limitation of Damages; Basket. The indemnification set forth in this Section 4 shall be the sole remedy of the parties with respect to any Claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. In no event shall any party be entitled to punitive, exemplary, special, incidental or consequential damages or the like for any breach of any term hereunder. No party hereto shall be required to make an indemnification payment to an indemnitee pursuant to this Section 4 until such time as the total amount of losses that have been incurred or suffered by one or more of the indemnitees hereunder exceeds $50,000; if the total amount of such losses exceeds $50,000, the indemnitee(s) shall be entitled to be indemnified against and compensated and reimbursed for the entire amount of such losses, and not merely for the portion of such losses exceeding $50,000.
