SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AMENDMENT
This Settlement Agreement Amendment dated 31 May 2011 (the

Amendment
”
) is made by and among ARCH Digital Holdings Limited (
“

”
), an exempted company incorporated and existing under the Laws of the British Virgin Islands, Kingstate Group Limited (
“Kingstate”
), a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, Huge Harvest Enterprises Limited (
“Huge Harvest”)
, a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, Sinowill Holdings Limited (
“Sinowill”
), a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, Trend Focus Limited (
“Trend Focus”
), a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands. Each of the parties to this Amendment is individually referred to herein as a
“Party”
and collectively as the
“Parties”
.
WHEREAS,
1.
The Parties are currently the legal and beneficial owners of ordinary shares (the “
Funtalk Shares
”) in Funtalk China Holdings Limited, a company with limited liability registered by way of continuation in the Cayman Islands (the “
Company
”), and the Company's shares are listed on the NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol “FTLK”.
2.
Arch, Capital Ally Investments Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“
Capital Ally
”), Golden Meditech Holdings Limited, a Hong Kong public listing company incorporated in the Cayman Islands (“
Golden Meditech
”), Mr. ZHANG Kuo (
张阔
), a citizen of the People’s Republic of China, Mr. FEI Dongping (
费东平
), a citizen of the People’s Republic of China, and Mr. WAN Francis (
温国昌
), a citizen of Canada, signed a Settlement and Share Purchase Agreement dated 30 June 2010 (the
“First Settlement Agreement”
). Pursuant to Sections 1.01, 1.02 and 1.05 of the First Settlement Agreement, Capital Ally agreed to (i) sell 900,000 Funtalk Shares (“
Transferred Shares
”) to Arch with a total purchase price of US$1.00, (ii) grant to Arch an option to purchase 2,227,434 Funtalk Shares (the “
Option Shares
”) from Capital Ally at the consideration of US$5.00 per Option Share, and (iii) if the volume weighted average price of Funtalk Shares for 20 trading days prior to the Transfer Date as specified in Section 1.01 of the First Settlement Agreement (the
“Average Share Price”
) is below US$8.39, compensate Arch in the manner of transferring to Arch the Funtalk Shares in an amount equivalent to: the product of (x) the amount by which US$8.39 exceeds the Average Share Price, multiplied by (y) one million and eight hundred thousand Funtalk shares (1,800,000), and divided by (z) the Average Share Price (the
“Compensation Shares”
). The stipulations (i), (ii) and (iii) related to the Transfer Shares, Option Shares and Compensation Shares, respectively, are referred to herein as the “
Shares Settlement Obligations
”.
3.
Given that Capital Ally transferred all of its Funtalk Shares to Kingstate, Huge Harvest, Sinowill, Trend Focus and GM Investment Company Limited (
“GM Investment”
), a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong (collectively, the
“New Shareholders”
), Arch and the New Shareholders signed a Second Settlement and Share Purchase Agreement dated 23 August 2010 (the
“Second Settlement Agreement”
) pursuant to which the New Shareholders agreed to bear the Shares Settlement Obligations on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective proportionate pro forma ownership set forth in the SCHEDULE of the Second Settlement Agreement.
4.
The New Shareholders signed a Settlement Agreement dated 23 August 2010 to confirm that Kingstate, Huge Harvest, Sinowill and Trend Focus shall jointly bear the Shares Settlement Obligations and GM Investment shall not bear any Shares Settlement Obligations.
5.
Arch, Kingstate, Huge Harvest, Sinowill and Trend Focus signed a Settlement and Share Transfer Agreement dated 29 October 2010 (the
“Third Settlement Agreement”
) to settle disputes related to the Funtalk Shares offering price (the “
Offering Price
”) among them. Kingstate, Huge Harvest, Sinowill and Trend Focus agreed if (a) the Offering Price was less than Arch’s target price at US$7.3 per share (the
“Price A1”
),
and
(b) the maximum average closing sales price per Funtalk Share for any ten (10) continuous trading days within six (6) months after the offering date (the
“Price A2”
) was below Price A1, then Kingstate, Huge Harvest, Sinowill and Trend Focus would individually and jointly compensate Arch in the manner of transferring to Arch the Funtalk Shares in an amount equal to: (i) the difference between Price A1 and the higher of the Offering Price and Price A2, multiplied by (ii) 15,579,157, divided by (iii) the higher of the Offering Price and Price A2 (the
“Offering Compensation Shares”
).
6.
The Parties agreed verbally to settle the outstanding Transferred Shares, Option Shares, Compensation Shares and Offering Compensation Shares in the manner of Kingstate, Huge Harvest, Sinowill, Trend Focus paying cash, instead of transferring the Funtalk Shares, to Arch immediately after the execution date of the Second Settlement Agreement and the Third Settlement Agreement.
7.
The Company has entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated 31 May 2011 with Fortress Group Limited (“
Parent
”), an entity jointly owned by Arch, Capital Ally, GM Investment, Sinowill, Huge Harvest, Kingstate and Trend Focus (collectively, the “
Consortium Members
”), and Fortress Merger Sub Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“
Merger Sub
”), pursuant to which each Funtalk Share outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger will be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive $7.20 in cash without interest, except that the Funtalk Shares beneficially owned by Parent, Merger Sub and the Consortium Members will be cancelled without receiving any consideration.

3.04

3.06
Waivers, Rights and Remedies.
Except as otherwise provided in this Amendment, no failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right or remedy provided by law or under or pursuant to this Amendment shall impair such right or remedy or operate or be construed as a waiver or variation of it or preclude its exercise at any subsequent time and no single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy shall preclude any further exercise of it or the exercise of any other remedy.

(a) so far as it is illegal, invalid or unenforceable, it shall be given no effect and shall be deemed not to be included in this Amendment but it shall not affect or impair the legality, validity or enforceability in that jurisdiction of any other provisions of this Amendment (or of the provisions of this Amendment in any other jurisdiction); and
(b) the Parties shall use all reasonable endeavours to replace it with a valid and enforceable substitute provision or provisions satisfactory to any relevant competent authority but differing from the replaced provision as little as possible and the effect of which is as close to the intended effect of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision.
3.10
Governing Law and Jurisdiction.
This Amendment shall be governed by and construed under the laws of Hong Kong, without regard to principles of conflicts of law thereunder.
3.11 Dispute Resolution.
(a) Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Amendment, or the interpretation, breach, termination or validity hereof, shall first be subject to resolution through consultation of the Parties to such dispute, controversy or claim. Such consultation shall begin within seven (7) days after one Party hereto has delivered to any other Party(ies) hereto a written request for such consultation. If within thirty (30) days following the commencement of such consultation the dispute cannot be resolved, the dispute shall be submitted to arbitration upon the request of either Party with notice to the other.
(b) The arbitration shall be conducted in Hong Kong under the auspices of the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (the “
Centre”
).
There shall be three arbitrators. Each party in the dispute shall select one arbitrator within thirty (30) days after giving or receiving the demand for arbitration. Such arbitrators shall be freely selected, and the Parties shall not be limited in their selection to any prescribed list. The Chairman of the Centre shall select the third arbitrator, who shall be qualified to practice law in Hong Kong. If either party does not appoint an arbitrator who has consented to participate within thirty (30) days after selection of the first arbitrator, the relevant appointment shall be made by the Chairman of the Centre.
(c) The arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in English. The arbitration tribunal shall apply the Arbitration Rules of the Centre in effect at the time of the arbitration. However, if such rules are in conflict with the provisions of this Section, including the provisions concerning the appointment of arbitrators, the provisions of this Section shall prevail.
(d) The arbitrators shall decide any dispute submitted by the Parties to the arbitration strictly in accordance with the substantive Laws of Hong Kong and shall not apply any other substantive Law.
(e) Each Party hereto shall cooperate with the others in making full disclosure of and providing complete access to all information and documents requested by the others in connection with such arbitration proceedings, subject only to any confidentiality obligations binding on such Party.
(f) The award of the arbitration tribunal shall be final and binding upon the disputing Parties, and either Party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for enforcement of such award.
(g) Either Party shall be entitled to seek preliminary injunctive relief,
if possible, from any court of competent jurisdiction pending the constitution of the arbitral tribunal.
