At the first meeting of the fourth session of the Board convened on 22 June 2010, the Board resolved to propose an extension to the period of validity of the resolutions in respect of the A Share Issue and the Authorizations for a 12-month period, subject to Shareholders' approval at the EGM, the A Shareholders Class Meeting and the H Shareholders Class Meeting, to expire on the date falling 12 months from the date of passing of the relevant resolutions at the EGM, the A Shareholders Class Meeting and the H Shareholders Class Meeting. Save for the aforesaid extension of the period of validity, the original plan and the related authorization scope for the A Share Issue remain unchanged.

A circular containing further details regarding the extension of the period of validity of the resolutions in respect of the A Shares Issue and the Authorizations, and notices of the EGM and the H Shareholders Class Meeting will be despatched to H Shareholders as soon as practicable.

As the period of validity of the resolutions in respect of the A Share Issue and the Authorizations approved at the above meetings will expire on 23 August 2010, the Board resolved on 22 June 2010 to propose an extension to the period of validity of the resolutions in respect of the A Share Issue and the Authorizations for a 12-month period, subject to Shareholders approval at the EGM, the A Shareholders Class Meeting and the H Shareholders Class Meeting, to expire on the date falling 12 months from the date of passing of the relevant resolutions at the EGM, the A Shareholders Class Meeting and the H Shareholders Class Meeting. Save for the aforesaid extension of the period of validity, the original plan and the related authorization scope for the A Share Issue remain unchanged.

The Board confirms that there has been no change to the information contained in (1) the Detailed Plan for the Private Offering of A Shares; (2) the Report of Use of Proceeds from the Last Fund Raising Exercise and Independent Assurance Report; and (3) the Feasibility Analysis Report on the Use of Proceeds to be Raised by the Private Offering of A Shares of the Company (details of which are set out in the appendices to the circular of the Company dated 9 July 2009) and further confirms that the approvals granted by the Shareholders in respect of the same at the 2009 First Extraordinary General Meeting, the 2009 Second A Shareholders Class Meeting and the 2009 Second H Shareholders Class Meeting (as the case maybe) remain valid.

The proposed extension of the period of validity of the resolutions in respect of the A Share Issue and the Authorizations is subject to Shareholders' approval at the EGM, A Shareholders Class Meeting and H Shareholders Class Meeting.
