To the Shareholders
Dear Sir or Madam,
PROPOSED CHANGE OF COMPANY NAME
INTRODUCTION
On 29 September 2006, the Board announced the proposal for the Change of Company Name.
The purposes of this circular are to provide the Shareholders with (i) further information on the Change of Company Name and (ii) the notice of the SGM to be convened and held for the purpose of considering and, if thought fit, approving the necessary resolution to implement the proposal for the Change of Company Name.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
PROPOSED CHANGE OF COMPANY NAME
The Board proposes to put forward at the Special General Meeting a resolution to change the name of the Company from “Good Fellow Group Limited” to “China Grand Forestry Resources Group Limited”. It is also proposed that subject to the new English name of the Company becoming effective, the Company will adopt “中國林大資源集團有限公司” as its new Chinese name for identification purposes only. The proposed change of name is subject to, among other things, the Shareholders’ approval at the SGM.
The proposed change of Company name (the “Change of Company Name”) is to signify the Company’s intention to focus on the development of the new ecological forestry business and will take effect from the date on which the new name is entered on the register by the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda in place of the existing name. Upon the Change of Company Name becoming effective, all existing share certificates bearing the current name of Good Fellow Group Limited will continue to be evidence of title to Shares and will continue to be valid for trading, settlement and registration purposes and the rights of the Shareholders will not be affected as a result of the Change of Company Name. Should the Change of Company Name become effective, any issue of share certificates thereafter will be in the new company name and the securities of the Company will be traded on the Stock Exchange in the new name. The Company will make a press announcement when the Change of Company Name becomes effective.
SGM
Set out on page 5 and 6 of this circular is a notice convening the SGM to consider and, if thought fit, to approve the special resolution relating to the Change of Company Name.
A form of proxy for use at the SGM is enclosed herewith. Whether or not you are able to attend and vote at the SGM, please complete the enclosed form of proxy and return it to the Company’s branch share registrar in Hong Kong, Tengis Limited, at 26th Floor, Tesbury Centre, 28 Queen’s Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong as soon as possible and in any event not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding the SGM or any adjournment thereof. Completion and return of the form of proxy will not preclude you from attending and voting in person at the SGM or any adjournment thereof if you so wish.
PROCEDURES FOR DEMANDING A POLL
Pursuant to the bye-laws of the Company, a poll may be demanded in relation to any resolution put to the vote of the SGM before or on the declaration of the result on the show of hands or on the withdrawal of any other demand for a poll:
-
(a) by the chairman of such meeting; or

-
(d) by any Shareholder or Shareholders present in person (or, in the case of a Shareholder being a corporation, by its duly authorised representative) or by proxy and holding Shares conferring a right to vote at the meeting being Shares on which an aggregate sum has been paid up equal to not less than one-tenth of the total sum paid up on all Shares conferring that right.
On a show of hands every Shareholder who is present in person (or, in the case of a Shareholder being a corporation, by its duly authorised representative), or by proxy shall (save as provided otherwise in this Bye-law) have one vote, and on a poll every Shareholder present in person (or, in the case of a Shareholder being a corporation, by its duly authorised representative) or by proxy, shall have one vote for every share of which he is the holder which is fully paid or credited as fully paid (but so that no amount paid or credited as paid on a share in advance of calls or installments shall be treated for the purposes of this Bye-law as paid on the Share). On a poll, a Shareholder entitled to more than one vote need not, if he votes, use all his votes or cast all his votes in the same way.
