The Existing Loan is secured by the Corporate Guarantee granted by China Agri-Products and a share charge over the share(s) in Shiney Day held by Super Treasure. On 5 June 2009, Active Day assigned to True Noble Limited (‘‘True Noble’’), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, all of the rights, title, benefit and interest of Active Day under the Loan Agreement.
