In connection with the purchase of the Sale Shares, Shanda Media will extend a loan to the Buyer for the entire amount of the Purchase Price, which will be secured by a pledge of the Sale Shares to Shanda Media by the Buyer.  In connection with such arrangement and the Buyer’s obligation to pay the Purchase Price on the Closing Date, the Buyer will issue a promissory note to Shanda Media (“Promissory Note”) and execute a share charge (“Share Charge”) on the Closing Date. The Promissory Note has a maturity period of three years from the Closing Date, and accrues interest following the second anniversary of the Closing Date at LIBOR + 4.5% per annum.

A copy of the Share Purchase Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit B (together with the form of Promissory Note and the form of Share Charge), and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction
 
Terms of the Share Purchase Agreement

As described in Item 3 above, which is incorporated into this Item 4 by reference, pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, Shanda Media agreed to sell, and the Buyer agreed to purchase, a total of 1,938,360,784 Shares at the Purchase Price.

The Share Purchase Agreement provides that so long as the Promissory Note is outstanding or Shanda Media holds 10% of Ku6’s Shares, the Buyer has agreed that upon request of Shanda Media, he will use his best efforts and take necessary actions to change the size of the board of directors to seven members and cause two individuals nominated by Shanda Media (“Shanda Nominees”) to be appointed as directors of Ku6 so far as such Shanda Nominees are not prohibited by any applicable law or stock exchange rules to be a public company director, and in furtherance of this agreement, the Buyer has agreed to vote all Shares and other securities of the Company beneficially owned by him at any shareholder meeting to elect the Shanda Nominees as directors of the Company.

The Share Purchase Agreement also provides that so long as the Promissory Note is outstanding or Shanda Media holds 10% of Ku6’s Shares, the Buyer has agreed, amongst others, not to (i) acquire any Shares or be part of a group that holds more than 50% of the beneficial ownership of Shares of Ku6, (ii) make any acquisition proposal or proposal for an extraordinary transaction involving the Company, or (iii) cause any action to be taken by Ku6 or its subsidiaries with respect to certain fundamental matters, including liquidation, delisting, sale of assets over a certain specified threshold, certain related party transactions or a merger or similar transaction, without the prior written consent of Shanda Media. The Buyer has agreed to cause the Company to file a registration statement to register the Shares and/or ADSs held by Shanda Media upon request of Shanda Media.

The Buyer has agreed under the Share Purchase Agreement to procure Ku6 to raise at least US$10,000,000 on or prior to October 30, 2014 through equity or debt financing.

Following the Closing Date, if any amount is due and payable to Shanda Media under the Promissory Note or the Share Charge and is outstanding, Shanda Media may require (as part of their enforcement) the Buyer to transfer all of the Sale Shares to Shanda Media at a price equal to the lower of (x) the Purchase Price and (y) the then market value of the Sale Shares calculated in the manner set forth under the Share Purchase Agreement.

In addition, Shanda Media has agreed that if Ku6 proposes to acquire Sky Profit Limited, a Cayman Islands company majority-owned by Buyer (“Sky Profit”), and such transaction is recommended to the shareholders for approval by the board of directors of Ku6 and any special committee of disinterested directors, Shanda Media shall vote all its Shares in line with such recommendation. Shanda Media also has a right under the Share Purchase Agreement to subscribe to equity or equity - linked securities issued by affiliates of the Buyer for an amount up to US$25,000,000 that is equal to, or convertible into, 20% of Sky Profit on a fully diluted basis.

Closing under the SharePurchase Agreement is subject to fulfilment of customary closing conditions, and includes the requirement that either Ku6 should have cash or cash equivalents minus accounts payable due as of March 31, 2014 of at least RMB 10 million, or alternately, Shanda Media shall have agreed to inject RMB 20 million in cash or cash equivalents on terms agreed with Ku6.

6.5

ENFORCEMENT OF SECURITY

7.1
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default the Security Interest hereby constituted shall become immediately enforceable and the Chargee, at any time, without further notice to or consultation with or consent of  the Chargor may:

 
7.1.1
solely and exclusively exercise all voting and/or consensual powers pertaining to the Charged Property or any part thereof and may exercise such powers in such manner as the Chargee may think fit;

 
7.1.2
receive and retain all dividends, interest, distributions or other moneys or assets accruing on or in respect of the Charged Property or any part thereof, such dividends, interest, distributions or other moneys or assets to be held by the Chargee, until applied in the manner described in Clause 7.4, as additional security charged under and subject to the terms of this Charge and any such dividends, interest, distributions or other moneys or assets received by the Chargor

after such time shall be held in trust by the Chargor for the Chargee and paid or transferred to the Chargee on demand;

 
7.1.3

7.1.5
complete any undated blank share transfer forms of all or any part of the Charged Property by dating the same and/or inserting its name or the name of its nominee as transferee.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Chargor agrees that the Chargee shall be entitled to enforce the Security Interest and take possession of the Charged Property, and shall have the right, but not the obligation or any requirement to sell or otherwise dispose of the Charged Property, and the Chargor hereby waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) any such requirement of the Chargee (whether under contract or under any applicable law) to mandatorily sell or dispose of the Charged Property upon enforcement of the Security Interest.

7.2
The Chargee shall not be obliged to make any enquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by it under this Charge or to make any claim or to take any action to collect any moneys assigned by this Charge or to enforce any rights or benefits assigned to the Chargee by this Charge or to which the Chargee may at any time be entitled hereunder.

7.3
Upon any sale by the Chargee of the Charged Property or any part thereof by the Chargee the purchaser shall not be bound to see or enquire whether the Chargee’s power of sale has become exercisable in the manner provided in this Charge and the sale shall be deemed to be within the power of the Chargee, and the receipt of the Chargee for the purchase money shall effectively discharge the purchaser who shall not be concerned with the manner of application of the proceeds of sale or be in any way answerable therefor.

7.4
All moneys received by the Chargee pursuant to this Charge shall be held by it upon trust in the first place to pay or make good all such expenses, liabilities, losses, costs, duties, fees, charges or other moneys whatsoever as may have been paid or incurred by the Chargee in exercising any of the powers specified or otherwise referred to in this Charge and the balance shall be applied in the following manner:

 
7.4.1
FIRSTLY:  in or towards satisfaction of any amounts in respect of the balance of the Secured Obligations as are then accrued due and payable or are then due and payable by virtue of payment demanded, in such order or application as the Chargee shall think fit;

 
7.4.2
SECONDLY:  in retention of an amount equal to any part or parts of the Secured Obligations as are or are not then due and payable but which (in the sole and absolute opinion of the Chargee) will or may become due and payable in the future

 
35

 

and, upon the same becoming due and payable, in or towards satisfaction thereof in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Clause 7.4; and

 
7.4.3
THIRDLY:  the surplus (if any) shall be promptly paid to the Chargor or to whosoever else may be entitled thereto.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Chargor agrees that the Chargee shall be entitled to enforce the Security Interest and take possession of the Charged Property, and shall not have any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of the Charged Property, and the Chargor hereby waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) any such requirement of the Chargee (whether under contract or under any applicable law) to mandatorily sell or dispose of the Charged Property upon enforcement of the Security Interest and distribute the moneys in accordance with Clause 7.4.

7.5
Neither the Chargee nor its agents, managers, officers, employees, delegates or advisers shall be liable for any claim, demand, liability, loss, damage, cost or expense incurred or arising in connection with the exercise or purported exercise of any rights, powers and discretions hereunder in the absence of fraud; however, in no event shall the Chargee be liable for consequential damages.

7.6
The Chargee shall not by reason of the taking of possession of the whole or any part of the Charged Property or any part thereof be liable to account as mortgagee-in-possession or for anything except actual receipts or be liable for any loss upon realisation or for any default or omission for which a mortgagee-in-possession might be liable.

7.7
In addition to all other rights or powers vested in the Chargee hereunder or by statute or otherwise, the Receiver may take such action in relation to the enforcement of this Charge to:

7.7.6
sell, call in, collect and convert to money the Charged Property or any of it at such place and in such manner and at such price or prices as he shall think fit;
