Payment of Consideration for New Shares

On the Closing Date (as defined in Clause 3 below), China Energy shall make the payment of USD83,822,568 (the “Consideration”) in a lump sum payment by wire transfer to a designated Hong Kong bank account held by the Escrow Agent (as defined in Clause 2.3.1 below).

Issuance of New Shares

Subject to the other terms and conditions under this Agreement, the New Shares should be issued and released pursuant to the following schedule:

On the Closing Date, SES shall issue 37,254,475 New Shares (“Closing Shares”) to China Energy and deliver the Closing Shares to the Escrow Agent and the Escrow Agent shall release such Closing Shares to China Energy pursuant to Clause 2.3.2.

Within twenty (20) business days after the accomplishment of the Milestone (as defined in Clause 2.2.3 below), SES shall further issue directly to China Energy an amount of New Shares (the “Milestone Shares”) which, when combined with the Closing Shares, equals sixty percent (60.0%) of the issued and outstanding Common Stock (including outstanding options or securities convertible to, or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, and all Common Stock reserved for future issuance pursuant to SES incentive plan) on a fully-diluted basis as of the date on which the Milestone is achieved.

For the purpose of the above, the Milestone (the “Milestone”) will be deemed to be achieved if the average closing price of the Common Stock for twenty (20) consecutive trading days equals USD8.00 per share (the “Threshold Price”) or above, provided that, the beginning of the twenty (20) consecutive trading days may only occur upon the occurrence of both (i) ZJX and/or China Energy has undertaken best endeavours to establish any of one of the MJVs as described in Clause 7.2.1 for SES; and (ii) the expiration of a 6 month period after the Closing Date.

Escrow Arrangement

Within 30 business days upon the signing of this Agreement, China Energy and SES shall jointly appoint a reputable law firm or accounting firm in Hong Kong as the escrow agent (“Escrow Agent”), which shall be responsible for releasing of the Consideration to SES and Closing Shares to China Energy, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Within three (3) business days after receipt by the Escrow Agent of joint written instructions from ZJX, China Energy and SES confirming that all conditions precedent set forth in Clause 4 of this Agreement have been satisfied, the Escrow Agent shall release and wire transfer the full amount of the Consideration to a Hong Kong bank account designated by SES, and release and deliver the Closing Shares to China Energy.

Failure to Achieve the Milestone

In the event that the Milestone is not achieved within a five (5) year period commencing on the Closing Date (such five years plus any extensions granted pursuant to this Clause 2.4 shall be referred to as the “Deadline” in this Agreement), and no Target Projects (as defined below) are secured by ZJX for SES by the Deadline, SES shall then have the sole discretion to extend or not extend the Deadline. If ZJX has secured Target Projects for SES prior to the Deadline, but the Milestone has not been achieved by the Deadline, SES shall agree to extend the period to achieve the Milestone by one year for each Target Project secured by ZJX for SES, provided that the Deadline cannot be extended beyond 10 years from the Closing Date. If the Deadline is not extended pursuant to this Agreement after it expires, China Energy’s rights to the Milestone Shares shall be relinquished.

For the purpose of the above, a Target Project (“Target Project”) shall mean either (i) the execution of a joint venture agreement, and other ancillary and necessary documents, related to the formation of a MJV (as defined in Clause 7.2.1), or (ii) securing for SES a coal resource project that is already in operation, a new coal chemical project or any other project that is approved by the Board of Directors of SES (the “SES Board”), each with a total investment of at least RMB1.5 billion (in this Agreement “RMB” shall mean the legal currency of the PRC).

Failure of Issuance of Milestone Shares for Regulatory Reasons

In the event that the Milestone is achieved in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement but, pursuant to restriction or non-approval by any U.S.A governmental agency or competent regulatory authority, (i) the issuance of the Milestone Shares to China Energy is prevented from occurring or (ii) the ownership by China Energy of the Milestone Shares is required to be divested, SES shall be responsible to seek qualified third parties to purchase the right of China Energy to the Milestone Shares. In the event that such can not be accomplished within twelve (12) months (commencing from the date of the action of such U.S.A. governmental agency or competent regulatory authority preventing China Energy’s ownership of the Milestone Shares), then SES shall compensate China Energy for the Milestone Shares by making a payment in an amount equal to USD2.00 per share (the “Settlement Price”) for each Milestone Share. Such payment may be made by SES to China Energy in the form of cash or an equivalent amount of SES’s assets in the PRC. To avoid any doubt, if SES has paid the compensation described above, ZJX or China Energy should not further claim for the issuance of the Milestone Shares or make other claims under this Clause 2.5.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the number of Milestone Shares, as well as the Threshold Price and Settlement Price for the Milestone Shares, shall be subject to proportionate adjustment in the event of a change in the capital structure of SES, including as a result of recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse split, consolidation, conversion, etc.

Subject to other terms and conditions under this Agreement, the closing (the “Closing”) of the payment of the Consideration by China Energy and the issuance of the Closing Shares shall take place on a day (the “Closing Date”) within ten (10) business days after satisfaction of all conditions precedent specified in Clause 4.

The arbitrators shall decide any dispute submitted by the Parties to the arbitration strictly in accordance with the substantive law of Hong Kong and shall not apply any other substantive law.

Each Party shall cooperate with the other in making full disclosure of and providing complete access to all information and documents requested by the other in connection with such arbitration proceedings, subject only to any confidentiality obligations binding on such Party.

The award of the arbitral tribunal shall be final and binding upon the disputing Parties, and any prevailing Party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for enforcement of such award.

Any Party shall be entitled to seek preliminary injunctive relief, if possible, from a competent court of Hong Kong pending the constitution of the arbitral tribunal.
