CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM OF THE STOCK EXCHANGE
GEM has been established as a market designed to accommodate companies to which a high investment risk may be attached. In particular, companies may list on GEM with neither a track record of profitability nor any obligation to forecast future profitability. Furthermore, there may be risks arising out of the emerging nature of companies listed on GEM and the business sectors or countries in which the companies operate. Prospective investors should be aware of the potential risks of investing in such companies and should make the decision to invest only after due and careful consideration. The greater risk profile and other characteristics of GEM mean that it is a market more suited to professional and other sophisticated investors.
Given the emerging nature of companies listed on GEM, there is a risk that securities traded on GEM may be more susceptible to high market volatility than securities traded on the main board of the Stock Exchange and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.
The principal means of information dissemination on GEM is publication on the internet website operated by the Stock Exchange . GEM-listed companies are not generally required to issue paid announcements in gazetted newspapers. Accordingly, prospective investors should note that they need to have access to the GEM website in order to obtain up-to-date information on GEM-listed issuers.

To holders of the Promoters’ Shares and H Shares
Dear Sir or Madam,
PROPOSAL FOR SUBDIVISION OF THE PROMOTERS’ AND H SHARES AND CHANGE IN BOARD LOT SIZE OF H SHARES IN TRADING
INTRODUCTION
The Board announced on 25th September, 2000, among other things, a proposal for the Share Subdivision and change in board lot size of H Shares in trading.
The purposes of this circular are to provide further details regarding the proposal for the Share Subdivision, the change in board lot size of H Shares in trading and the recommendation of the Board.
SHARE SUBDIVISION
The Board proposes that each of the Promoters’ Shares and H Shares with a nominal value of RMB1.00 each be subdivided respectively into ten Subdivided Promoters’ Shares and Subdivided H Shares with a nominal value of RMB0.10 each. The Board believes the proposed Share Subdivision
– 1 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
will improve the liquidity of the H Shares and helps to widen the investor base of the Company. The Board is of the opinion that the Share Subdivision is in the interests of the Company and the holders of Promoters’ Shares and H Shares as a whole.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, the registered share capital of the Company is RMB96,400,000, which is divided into 70,000,000 Promoters’ Shares and 26,400,000 H Shares with a nominal value of RMB1.00 each. Immediately upon completion of the Share Subdivision and on the basis that an aggregate of 96,400,000 Promoters’ and H Shares are in issue, a total of 964,000,000 Subdivided Shares will be created pursuant to the Share Subdivision. The 964,000,000 Subdivided Shares will comprise 700,000,000 Subdivided Promoters’ Shares and 264,000,000 Subdivided H Shares with a nominal value of RMB0.10 each. The rights attaching to the Subdivided Shares will not be affected by the Share Subdivision.
The proposed Share Subdivision is subject to, among other things, approval by the CSRC and approvals by the holders of Promoters’ Shares and H Shares to the proposed amendments to the relevant provisions of the Articles of Association of the Company relating to the proposed change in the nominal value per Promoters’ Share and H Share.
Currently, the H Shares are traded in board lots of 200 H Shares. Upon fulfilment of the Conditions, it is proposed that the Subdivided H Shares be traded in board lots of 1,000 Subdivided H Shares.
CONDITIONS
The Share Subdivision is conditional upon, among other things:
-
(a) the passing of a special resolution by the holders of Promoters’ Shares and H Shares at the Special General Meeting relating to the proposed Share Subdivision and the proposed amendments to the Articles of Association of the Company;
-
(b) the passing of a special resolution by the holders of H Shares at the Class Meeting relating to the proposed Share Subdivision and the proposed amendments to the Articles of Association of the Company;
-
(c) approval issued by the CSRC regarding the proposed Share Subdivision;
-
(d) filing with or consent of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation of the PRC regarding the proposed amendment to the relevant provisions of the Articles of Association of the Company;
-
(e) filing with or consent of the Ministry of Finance of the PRC regarding the proposed Share Subdivision;
-
(f) consent of the State Commission of Economy and Trade of the PRC regarding the proposed Share Subdivision; and
-
(g) the GEM Listing Committee granting the listing of and permission to deal in the Subdivided H Shares and any new Subdivided H Shares which may fall to be issued pursuant to the exercise of options granted under the Company’s Employee Share Option Scheme.
– 2 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
An application has been made to the Stock Exchange for the listing of and permission to deal in such Subdivided H Shares.
Subject to the granting of listing of, and permission to deal in, the Subdivided H Shares on the Stock Exchange, the Subdivided H Shares will be accepted as eligible securities by Hongkong Clearing for deposit, clearance and settlement in CCASS with effect from the commencement date of dealings in the Subdivided H Shares on the Stock Exchange or such other date as determined by Hongkong Clearing. Settlement of transactions between members of the Stock Exchange on any trading day is required to take place in CCASS on the second trading day thereafter. All activities under CCASS are subject to the General Rules of CCASS and CCASS Operational Procedures in effect from time to time.
TRADING ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE SUBDIVIDED SHARES
Only the H Shares are listed and dealt in on the Stock Exchange. No part of the Company’s securities are listed or dealt in on any other stock exchange, nor is listing or permission to deal in on any other stock exchange being or proposed to be sought. Dealings in the Subdivided H Shares will be subject to Hong Kong stamp duty.
1. Dealings
Subject to the Share Subdivision becoming unconditional, the arrangements proposed for dealings in the Subdivided H Shares are expected to be as follows:
-
(a) From 8th December, 2000, the existing counter for trading in the H Shares in board lots of 200 H Shares will be closed temporarily and a temporary counter for trading in the Subdivided Shares in board lots of 2,000 Subdivided H Shares will be set up. Accordingly, one H Share will be deemed to represent ten Subdivided H Shares. Existing H Share certificates may only be traded at the temporary counter.
-
(b) With effect from 22nd December, 2000, the existing counter for trading in the H Shares will be reopened for trading in the Subdivided H Shares in board lots of 1,000 Subdivided H Shares.
-
(c) During the period from 22nd December, 2000 to 12th January, 2001 (both days inclusive), there will be parallel trading at the above two counters.
-
(d) With effect from 10:00 a.m. on 15th January, 2001, trading will only be in the Subdivided H Shares in board lots of 1,000 Subdivided H Shares and the temporary counter for trading in the Subdivided H Shares in board lots of 2,000 Subdivided H Shares will be removed. Dealings in the Subdivided H Shares represented by existing H Share certificates will cease after the close of trading on 12th January, 2001.
Existing H Share certificates will only be valid for delivery and settlement in respect of dealings for the period up to 12th January, 2001 and thereafter will not be accepted for dealing purposes. However, the existing H Share certificates will continue to be good evidence of legal title to the Subdivided H Shares on the basis of one H Share for ten Subdivided H Shares and may be exchanged for new share certificates for the Subdivided H Shares at any time. Such holders of H Shares shall be entitled to tender their existing H Share certificates in exchange for new share certificates for the Subdivided H Shares in board lots of 1,000 Subdivided H Shares so that their shareholding may be accurately represented by the new share certificates for the Subdivided H Shares.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
2. Free exchange of share certificates

Thereafter, existing H Share certificates will be accepted for exchange only on payment of a fee of HK$2.50 (or such higher amount as may from time to time be allowed by the Stock Exchange) for each new share certificate for the Subdivided H Shares. Holders of H Shares are entitled to aggregate his/ her Shares registered in his/her name in order to obtain new share certificates for the Subdivided H Shares in board lot(s) of 1,000 Subdivided H Shares.
If holders of H Shares are able to lodge their share certificates for the existing H Shares between 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. on 8th December, 2000, it is expected that new share certificates for the Subdivided H Shares will be available for collection during normal business hours on or after 22nd December, 2000. If holders of H Shares lodge their share certificates for the existing H Shares after 8th December, 2000, it is expected that new share certificates for the Subdivided H Shares will be available for collection on or after the 10th business day from the date of submission of existing H Share certificates to the Registrar at the above address for exchange. Unless instructed otherwise, new share certificates for the Subdivided H Shares will be issued in board lots of 1,000 Subdivided H Shares.
