(v)

No Stabilization.  Neither the Company nor the Controlling Shareholder has nor has anyone acting on behalf of either of them (i) taken, directly or indirectly, any action designed to cause or to result in, or that has constituted or which might reasonably be expected to constitute, the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of CSR or the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of any of the Securities, (ii) sold, bid for, purchased, or paid anyone any compensation for soliciting purchases of, the Securities, or (iii) paid or agreed to pay to any person any compensation for soliciting another to purchase any other securities of the Company, CSR or its respective Subsidiaries.

As promptly as reasonably practical after receipt by an Indemnified Person under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action for which such Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification under this Section 8, such Indemnified Person will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof in writing; but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability under paragraph (a) above unless and only to the extent it is materially prejudiced as a result thereof and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any Indemnified Person other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) above.  In case any such action is brought against any Indemnified Person, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may determine, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such Indemnified Person (who shall not, except with the written consent of such Indemnified Person, be counsel to the indemnifying party) at the expense of the indemnifying party; provided, however, that if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the Indemnified Person would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or are targets of, any such action include both the Indemnified Person and the indemnifying party, and the Indemnified Person shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it and/or any other Indemnified Person that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, or (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person to represent the Indemnified Person within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action, then, in each such case, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Person or Persons and such Indemnified Person or Persons shall have the right to select separate counsel (including an additional local counsel) to defend such action on behalf of such Indemnified Person or Persons at the reasonable expense of the indemnifying party.  After notice from the indemnifying party to such Indemnified Person of its election so to assume the defense thereof and approval by such Indemnified Person of counsel appointed to defend such action, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such Indemnified Person under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses, other than reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with the defense thereof, unless (i) the Indemnified Person shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that in connection with such action the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to local counsel) in any one action or separate but substantially similar actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, representing the Indemnified Persons who are parties to such action or actions) or (ii) the indemnifying party has authorized in writing the employment of counsel for the Indemnified Person at the expense of the indemnifying party.  After such notice from the indemnifying party to such Indemnified Person, the indemnifying party will not be liable for the costs and expenses of any settlement of such action effected by such Indemnified Person without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

21


 

(c)

No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of any Indemnified Person, effect any settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action, claim, suit or proceeding in respect of which the Indemnified Person is or could have been a party, or indemnity could have been sought hereunder by any Indemnified Person (whether or not the Indemnified Person is an actual or potential party to such action or claim), unless such settlement (A) includes an unconditional express written release of any Indemnified Person in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, from all losses, claims, damages or liabilities arising out of such action, claim, suit or proceeding and (B) does not include any statement as to an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person.  If a claim or action is settled, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff with respect to any such claim or action, each indemnifying party jointly and severally agrees, subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth above, to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities (and legal and other expenses as set forth above) incurred by reason of such settlement or judgment.

(d)

The indemnity and expense reimbursement obligations set forth herein (i) shall be in addition to any liability the Controlling Shareholder or the Company may have to any Indemnified Person at common law or otherwise, and (ii) shall be binding on any successor or assignee of any of the Controlling Shareholder or the Company and successors or assignees of any of the business and assets of the Controlling Shareholder or the Company.

 

22


 

(e)

If the Company enters into any agreement or arrangement with respect to, or effects, any proposed sale, exchange, dividend or other distribution or liquidation of all or a significant portion of its assets in one or a series of transactions or any significant recapitalization or reclassification of its outstanding securities, the Company shall provide for the assumption of its obligations under this Agreement by another party reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser.

9.

Termination.  

(a)

The Purchaser may terminate this Agreement at any time prior to the Closing Date by written notice to the Company if any of the following has occurred:

(i)

since the date hereof, any Material Adverse Effect or development involving or reasonably expected to result in a prospective Material Adverse Effect that could, in the Purchaser’s reasonable judgment, be expected to (i) make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the purchase of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in this Agreement and the Indenture or (ii) materially impair the investment quality of any of the Securities;

(ii)

the failure of the Company to satisfy any of the conditions contained in Section 7(i)(e) hereof on or prior to January 31, 2008;

(iii)

any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or other national or international calamity or crisis, including acts of terrorism, or material adverse change or disruption in economic conditions in, or in the financial markets of, the U.S., the European Union, the PRC or Hong Kong (it being understood that any such change or disruption shall be relative to such conditions and markets as in effect on the date hereof), if the effect of such outbreak, escalation, calamity, crisis, act or material adverse change in the economic conditions in, or in the financial markets of, the U.S., the European Union, the PRC or Hong Kong could be expected to make it, in the Purchaser’s reasonable judgment, impracticable to proceed with the consummation of the transactions on the terms and in the manner contemplated in this Agreement or the Indenture;

(iv)

trading in the CSR’s Common Stock shall have been suspended by the Trading Market or the suspension or limitation of trading generally in securities on the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the London Stock Exchange, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ Small Cap Market, the NASDAQ Capital Market or the NASDAQ Global Market or any setting of limitations on prices for securities on any such exchange or the NASDAQ Capital Market or the NASDAQ Small Cap Market or the NASDAQ Global Market;

(v)

the enactment, publication, decree or other promulgation after the date hereof of any Applicable Law that could be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; or

(vi)

the declaration of a banking moratorium by any federal or New York state Governmental Authority; or the taking of any action by any Governmental Authority after the date hereof in respect of its monetary or fiscal affairs that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial markets in the U.S., European Union, the PRC, Hong Kong or elsewhere.

23


 

(b)

The Company may terminate this Agreement at any time prior to the Closing Date by written notice to the Purchaser upon the Purchaser’s breach of its representations, warranties, covenants and obligations under this Agreement or the failure of the Purchasers to satisfy any of the conditions contained in Section 7(ii)(d) hereof on or prior to January 31, 2008.

(c)

The Company shall pay to the Purchaser an amount, in U.S. Dollars, equal to $400,000 (the “Company Breakup Fee”) if there occurs a Company Breach.  For the purposes of this Agreement, a “Company Breach” shall mean (i) any breach by the Company or the Controlling Shareholder of their respective obligations as set forth in the Agreement, and (ii) any action, inaction, event or decision of the Company or by the Controlling Shareholder that prevents (whether directly or indirectly) the parties hereto from consummating the transactions contemplated hereby, including any breaches any of its representations, warranties, covenants or obligations of the Company or the Controlling Shareholder under this Agreement prior to the Closing Date; provided however, a Company Breach shall not include a valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Sections 9(a)(iii) (but only if terminated by the Company), (v), (vi) or (vii).  The Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by written notice to the Company and the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than 7 days following the termination of this Agreement) pay the Company Breakup Fee to the Purchaser.  The Company shall not be obligated to pay the Company Breakup Fee if such fee becomes due and payable after January 25, 2008; provided the Company has fulfilled all of its obligations hereunder.

(d)

The Purchaser shall pay to the Company an amount, in U.S. Dollars, equal to a portion of $400,000 that is proportionate to the proportion of Securities to be purchased by the Purchaser, relative to the total amount of Securities as shown on Schedule I (the “Purchaser Breakup Fee”) if there occurs a Purchaser Breach.  For the purpose of this Agreement, a “Purchaser Breach” shall mean (i) any breach by the Purchaser of its obligations set forth in the this Agreement and (ii) and any action, inaction, event or decision of the Purchaser that prevents the parties hereto from consummating the transactions contemplated hereby, including any breaches any of the Purchasers’ representations, warranties, covenants or obligations under this Agreement on or before the Closing Date; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, the Purchaser shall not be required to pay the Purchaser Breakup Fee based upon (i) such Purchaser’s discovery during its due diligence investigation of any material information of the Company or CSR not previously disclosed to the Purchaser by the Company prior to the date hereof, (ii) any material misstatement or omission by CSR in its audited Financial Statements or SEC Reports or (iii) the failure of any of the conditions contained in Section 7 hereof on or prior to the Closing Date.  Subject to the foregoing proviso, the Purchaser shall promptly (but in no event later than 7 days following such termination by the Company) pay the Purchaser Breakup Fee to the Company. The Purchaser shall not be obligated to pay the Purchaser Breakup Fee if such fee becomes due and payable after January 25, 2008, provided the Purchaser has fulfilled all of its obligations hereunder.

10.

Survival of Representations and Indemnities.  The representations and warranties, covenants, indemnities and contribution and expense reimbursement provisions and other agreements of any of the Controlling Shareholder, the Company and the Purchaser set forth in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, and will survive, until the fifth anniversary of the Initial Closing Date, regardless of (i) any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of the Purchaser, the Company or Controlling Shareholder and (ii) acceptance of the Securities, and payment for them hereunder.

24


 

11.

Substitution of Purchaser.  The Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its Affiliates as the purchaser of the Securities, by written notice to the Company, which notice shall be signed by the Purchaser and such Affiliate, shall contain such Affiliate’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such Affiliate of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 6.  Upon receipt of such notice, wherever the word “Purchaser” is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section 11), such word shall be deemed to refer to such Affiliate in lieu of the original purchaser.  In the event that such Affiliate is so substituted as a purchaser hereunder and such Affiliate thereafter transfers to the original purchaser all of the Securities then held by such Affiliate, upon receipt by the Company of notice of such transfer, wherever the word “Purchaser” is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section 11), such word shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Affiliate, but shall refer to the original purchaser, and the original purchaser shall have all the rights of an original holder of the Securities under this Agreement.

12.

No Short Sales.  The Purchaser agrees that it will not engage in any short sales (as such term is defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act) of securities of CSR during the period in which any of the Notes remains outstanding.  The parties hereto agree that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by the Purchaser of this Section 12, the Company and the Controlling Shareholder shall be entitled (in addition to any other remedy that may be available to it) to seek (a) a decree or order of specific performance or mandamus to enforce the observance and performance of such covenant, and (b) an injunction restraining such breach or threatened breach.
