LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Consideration

The consideration for the Acquisition depends on the Fair Value determined and certified by an independent valuer and the results of the Blower Investments Group for the 12-month period ending 30 June 2009 and the 12-month period ending 30 June 2010 (subject to a maximum consideration of HK$420 million). The consideration shall be satisfied by the issue of the Consideration Shares at the Issue Price. Vigers Appraisal & Consulting Limited, an independent valuer, has been appointed by the Company to determine the Fair Value.

Please refer to Appendix I to this circular for the letter issued by Vigers Appraisal & Consulting Limited for the details in respect of the determination of Fair Value. The valuation of the Fair Value has been prepared by Vigers Appraisal & Consulting Limited using the income or discounted cash flow method and is regarded as a profit forecast for the purposes of Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules. The respective letters issued by OSK Asia Capital Limited and Eddie K.K. Lau CPA Limited in respect of such profit forecast are set out on pages 38 to 41 of this circular.

The Consideration Shares will issued in three tranches in accordance with the provisions of the Share Purchase Agreement as amended by the Supplemental Agreement. The basis of determining the Consideration Shares are summarised below.

Formula for determining the number
of Consideration Shares
Issue time Number
Tranche 1 Consideration Shares (remains unchanged)
700,000,000 – Fair Value Adjustment
Fair Value Adjustment = (HK$140,000,000 – Fair Value)÷
Issue Price
If the Fair Value is more than HK$140,000,000, the Fair Value
Adjustment shall be 0 (zero).
HK$140,000,000 is the benchmark value of the Fair Value as
represented by the Vendor. The maximum number of Tranche
1 Consideration Shares will only be issued if the actual Fair
Value determined by an independent valuer is equal to or
higher than such benchmark value.
Based on the Fair Value of HK$148,428,000, the Fair
Value adjustment is 0 (zero) and the number of Tranche 1
Consideration Shares is 700,000,000 upon Completion.
Upon Completion 700,000,000, based on the Fair Value

and the Vendor to have such number of Consideration Shares
deducted under the Fair Value Adjustment be issued to the

The exclusion of the accounts receivable for the purposes of calculating the Year 2 Net Profit is an arm’s length commercial decision agreed between the Company and the Vendor with a view to better reflecting the income and expenses of the Blower Investments Group actually realized or incurred by cash.

Number
The pricing multiples of 4.75 times and 4 times used in the
above formula were agreed between the Company and the
Vendor after arm’s length negotiations with reference to
the historical price-earnings ratio of the Shares prior to the
entering into of the Share Purchase Agreement. Based on
Infocast, as at 31 March 2008, the closing price-earnings
ratio of the Shares was approximately 5.72 times. As it is
expected that the Blower Investments Group will have better
business prospects if the Advertising Agency Agreement
has not been terminated, accordingly the pricing multiple in
situation where the Advertising Agency Agreement has not
been terminated is higher than that where the Advertising
Agreement has been terminated.

Completion)

Pursuant to the Supplemental Agreement the periods upon which the Tranche 2 Consideration Shares and the Tranche 3 Consideration Shares are determined have been rolled forward six months from the year ending 31 December 2008 and the year ending 31 December 2009 respectively to the 12 months ending 30 June 2009 and the 12 months ending 30 June 2010 respectively. The Year 1 Agency Fee Adjustment had not been relevant before but was subsequently added in the Supplemental Agreement to reflect the appropriate calculation of the Year 1 Net Profit and the Tranche 2 Consideration Shares.

The maximum number of the Tranche 2 Consideration Shares remains to be 700,000,000 Consideration Shares notwithstanding the Year 1 Agency Fee Adjustment. The Year 1 Agency Fee Adjustment does not alter the maximum number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to the Tranche 2 Consideration Shares or the Acquisition. The Company does not consider amending the formula for calculating the Tranche 2 Consideration Shares a material change to the terms in respect of the Acquisition.

— 14 —

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Upon the entering into of the Supplemental Agreement, all provisions of the Supplemental Agreement, including but not limited to the amendment in respect of the formula for calculating the Tranche 2 Consideration Shares, shall immediately have effect and be binding on the Company, the Vendor and the Guarantor in respect of the Share Purchase Agreement.

The Company expects that apart from the business in relation to the Advertising Agency Agreement, the Blower Investments Group will also engage in other advertising agency business in the PRC by capitalizing its management experience and expertise in the television advertising agency market. Accordingly, the Company considers it reasonable to continue to pay the consideration using the above earn-out mechanism as set out in the Share Purchase Agreement (even if the Advertising Agency Agreement has been terminated) based on the results of the Blower Investments Group and the expected continuing business and expertise of the Blower Investments Group.

The Consideration Shares shall be issued at the Issue Price, which was determined after arm’s length negotiation between the Company and the Vendor with reference to the market prices of the Shares prior to the entering into of the Share Purchase Agreement and the timing of the issue of the Consideration Shares in 3 tranches up to 2010. The Issue Price represents:

  • (i) a premium of approximately 48.15% over the closing price of HK$0.135 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on 31 March 2008, being the date on which the Share Purchase Agreement was entered into;

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The consideration was determined after arm’s length negotiation between the Company and the Vendor. In agreeing with the Vendor the total consideration for the Acquisition and the mechanism for determining such consideration, the Company has taken into consideration, (i) the actual number of Consideration Shares to be issued to the Vendor will depend on the value of the Advertising Agency Agreement, a major business contract in which the Blower Investments Group will be beneficially interested, certified by an independent valuer and the actual results of the Blower Investments Group; and (ii) prospects of the Blower Investments Group and the television advertising industry in the PRC. The Company is only required to issue Tranche 1 Consideration Shares if the Fair Value is positive. It is only required to issue Tranche 2 Consideration Shares if the Blower Investments Group achieves Year 1 Net Profit of not less than HK$40,000,000. It is only required to issue Tranche 3 Consideration Shares if the Blower Investments Group achieves Year 2 Net Profit of not less than HK$60,000,000.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

FINANCIAL EFFECT OF THE ACQUISITION

Following the completion of the Acquisition, Blower Investments (which holds 100% interest in KAF, Zhong Guan and Guangzhou ZhanShi) will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The financial results of the Blower Investments Group will be consolidated into the financial statements of the Group. As the Acquisition will be settled by the issuance of the Consideration Shares only, the total assets of the Group will increase whilst there will not be any material changes to the total liabilities of the Group. It is expected that the net asset value of the Group will increase immediately upon completion of the Acquisition. Based on the assumption that the Advertising Agency Agreement will be profitable during its term from 1 January 2009 to 31 December 2011, the Acquisition is expected to enhance the Group’s earnings.

REASONS FOR THE ACQUISITION

The Blower Investments Group plans to engage directly or indirectly in the advertising agency business in respect of Guangdong SAT TV in the PRC and will enjoy the exclusive agent status for the period from 1 January 2009 to 31 December 2011. The Group is principally engaged in television advertising business and film & television drama business, with its operations mainly in the PRC and Hong Kong. The Directors believe that the Acquisition will further strengthen the Group’s ability in arranging advertising air-time for its clients. This will enhance the Group’s competitive position as a television advertising agency company in the PRC and allow the Group to further capitalize upon the growing television advertising market.

PROPOSED CHANGE OF THE COMPANY’S NAME

The Board considers that the Group needs to further diversify its business to other media business areas such as advertising agencies, content distribution and integration of different media platforms such as satellite channels, mobile phone and internet etc. The existing name of the Company suggests a business scope limited to “new media”.

Accordingly, the Board proposes to change the name of the Company to “Media China Corporation Limited (華億傳媒有限公司)” to better reflect the future business development and direction of the Group. The proposed change of name is subject to the passing of a special resolution at the EGM, and the approval of the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands.

Subject to satisfaction of the conditions set out above, the proposed change of the Company’s name will take effect from the date on which the certificate on change of name is issued by the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands. The Company will then carry out the necessary filing procedures with the Companies Registry in Hong Kong.

— 27 —

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The change of name of the Company will not affect any rights of the Shareholders. All existing share certificates in issue bearing the existing name of the Company will continue to be evidence of title to the Shares and will continue to be valid for trading, settlement, delivery and registration for the same number of the shares of the Company. Any issue of share certificates thereafter will be in the new name of the Company.

There will be arrangement for free exchange of the existing share certificates of the Company for new share certificates printed in the new name of the Company. Once the change of name becomes effective, Shareholders may, if they so wish, during the period of one month, deliver existing share certificates in respect of the shares of the Company held by them to the Company’s branch registrar and transfer office in Hong Kong, Tricor Tengis Limited at 26th Floor, Tesbury Centre, 28 Queen’s Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong, to exchange at the expense of the Company, for the new share certificates bearing the new name of the Company. After the expiry of such one month period, share certificates of the Company will be accepted for exchange at the expense of the Shareholders. Such exchanges will incur a fee of HK$2.50 (or such other amount as may from time to time be charged) for each of such certificate to be issued.

LETTER FROM VIGERS APPRAISAL & CONSULTING LIMITED IN RESPECT OF THE VALUATION OF THE ADVERTISING AGENCY AGREEMENT

APPENDIX I

BACKGROUD

Blower Investments is principally engaged in investment holding and has not carried out any business since its incorporation and therefore has no previous track record. The Blower Investments Group, through its interests in KAF, Zhong Guan and Guangzhou ZhanShi, is expected to engage in advertising agency business mainly in respect of television advertising in the PRC.

The Acquisition

Pursuant to Share Purchase Agreement dated 31 March 2008, the Letter Agreement dated 29 May 2008 and the Supplemental Agreement dated 13 August 2008, the Company conditionally agreed to purchase the entire issued share capital of Blower Investments. The acquisition is conditional on, among other things, the entering into of the Advertising Agency Agreement and the Management Contract(s). The Advertising Agency Agreement was entered into between Guangdong Television and Guangzhou ZhanShi dated 8 August 2008. Under the terms of the agreement, Guangzhou ZhanShi will serve as the 3-year exclusive agency for all of the advertising resources of Guangdong Satellite Television. This report is to carry out the valuation of the market value of the Advertising Agency Agreement.

The Television Advertising Business

China’s television advertising market is regulated under the China’s State Administration of Radio, Film and Television (SARFT) Regulation 17, effective on 1 January 2004. The SARFT Regulation 17 limits that the total allowed duration for advertisements on each channel should be no longer than 20% of the whole day’s broadcast hours and 15% of the prime 7:00 pm — 9:00 pm slots; it also limits that the broadcast of advertisements during drama series can be showed only once in each episode and can only last two minutes and 30 seconds.

The advertising industry is one of the fastest growing industries in China. According to the latest figures from the Nielsen Company, advertising spending in China in 2007 recorded a 15% increase across the three mainstream media — TV, Newspapers and magazine — reaching RMB441.5 billion compared to the previous year. TV continues to take the lion’s share of China’s advertising pie, attracting 82% of total advertising budgets over the year and enjoying 16% growth.

There are several advertisement modes: regular advertisement, direct selling advertisement, sponsorship and other specially-created advertisement modes. The categories of sponsorship include title sponsor, sole sponsor of the program and associated sponsors for one program. The sponsorship entitlements may include sponsor tags for promos, the opening & closing credit titles, break bumpers and commercial spots, depending on its contract with the television station.

APPENDIX I LETTER FROM VIGERS APPRAISAL & CONSULTING LIMITED IN RESPECT OF THE VALUATION OF THE ADVERTISING AGENCY AGREEMENT

Guangdong Television promises that the rating of Guangdong Satellite Television from 2009 to 2011 will increase gradually on the basis of that in 2008. The rating of Guangdong Satellite Television will be based on the survey conducted by CSM Media Research.

Guangzhou ZhanShi has the right to involve in the operations such as television program production, introduction, editing and so on. Guangzhou ZhanShi has the right to make suggestions on the important programs.

The exclusive right will start on 1 January 2009 and end on 31 December 2011. Upon the expiration, Guangzhou ZhanShi has the priority to renew the Agreement.

BASIS AND METHODOLOGY OF VALUATION

We have been asked to evaluate the market value of the Agreement. Market value is defined as the estimated amount for which an asset (a property) should exchange on the date of valuation between a willing buyer and willing seller in an arm’s length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently, and without compulsion. In this valuation, income approach is adopted as the valuation method.

Information Reviewed

Regarding the appraisal of the Agreement, as part of our analysis we have been furnished with information prepared by the Company, the Vendor, including but not limited to the following:

  • The business nature of the Vendor

  • The Share Purchase Agreement, the Letter Agreement and the Supplemental Agreement

  • The signed Advertising Agency Agreement between Guangdong Television and Guangzhou ZhanShi dated 8 August 2008

  • Cash flow projection from 2009 to 2011 provided by the Vendor

We have conducted personal interviews with the management of the Company and Vendor and relied to a considerable extent on the above information in arriving at our opinion of value.

— 34 —

APPENDIX I LETTER FROM VIGERS APPRAISAL & CONSULTING LIMITED IN RESPECT OF THE VALUATION OF THE ADVERTISING AGENCY AGREEMENT

Valuation Method

In arriving at our opinion of value, we make reference to three generally accepted approaches to value, namely, the Market Approach, the Cost Approach and the Income Approach.

Market Approach considers prices recently paid for similar assets, with adjustments made to indicate market prices to reflect condition and utility of the appraised assets relative to the comparable market transactions.

Cost Approach considers the cost to reproduce or replace in new condition the assets appraised in accordance with current market prices for similar assets, with allowance for accrued depreciation as condition or obsolescence present, whether arising from physical, functional or economic causes.

Income Approach is the conversion of expected periodic benefits of ownership into an indication of value. It is based on the principle that an informed buyer would pay no more for asset than an amount equal to the present worth of anticipated future benefits (income) from the same or equivalent asset with similar risk.

Market approach and cost approach may not be appropriate in this valuation since observable market transactions on advertising agency agreement is limited and may not be comparable in terms of their bid price, geographical locations and forms of operation. Therefore, Income Approach is adopted in the valuation of the Agreement.

The Agreement grants Guangzhou ZhanShi the exclusive right for all advertising on Guangdong Satellite Television during the period from 2009 to 2011. Thus, the Agreement has the life of 3 years. The cash flow due to the Agreement in its life can be estimated as follows: (i) a cash flow projection generated within its life; (ii) less the charge on contributory assets employed to serve the Agreement. The cash flow has considered relevant cost of good sold, selling and administrative expenses collectively in relation to the Agreement. Finally, the value of the Agreement is determined by the net present value at appropriate discount rate.

Before arriving at our opinion of value, we have considered, inter alia, the following factors:

  • the terms and conditions of the Advertising Agency Agreement;

  • the nature of the business;

  • the economic outlook of the PRC and Guangdong Province in general;

— 35 —

LETTER FROM VIGERS APPRAISAL & CONSULTING LIMITED IN RESPECT OF THE VALUATION OF THE ADVERTISING AGENCY AGREEMENT

APPENDIX I

  • the general outlook of the television advertising industry; and

  • the current regulations on television advertising.

Assumptions

In preparing this appraisal, a number of assumptions have been made in giving our opinion of the market value of the Agreement. The following assumptions are considered to be applicable to the appraisals in connection with the Agreement and have a significant effect on this appraisal. These assumptions have been evaluated and validated in order to provide a reasonable basis in arriving at our opinion of value. The major assumptions adopted in this valuation are as follows:

  • There will be no material adverse change in the political, legal, fiscal or economic condition in the PRC and other regions in which television advertising business operates;

  • The Company will retain the key management and competent personnel to support its ongoing operation after the acquisition;

  • Market trend and conditions for the television advertising business in related areas will not deviate significantly from the economic forecasts in general; and

  • The terms and conditions stated in the Agreement will be fulfilled, and there is no default, and no potential violation of governing law.

We have assumed the accuracy and reasonableness of the information provided and relied to a considerable extent on such information in arriving at our opinion of value.

OPINION OF VALUE

Based on the aforesaid investigation, analysis and appraisal method employed, it is our opinion that, as of 8 August 2008, the market value of the Agreement is reasonably stated as HKD148,428,000 ONLY .

The opinion of value was based on generally accepted appraisal procedures and practices that rely extensively on the use of numerous assumptions and the consideration of many uncertainties, not all of which can be easily quantified or ascertained.

APPENDIX IV EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

This is an explanatory statement given to all Shareholders relating to a resolution to be proposed at the EGM for approving the Repurchase Mandate.

1. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 18,118,245,313 Shares.

Subject to the passing of the ordinary resolution granting the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased prior to the EGM, the Company would be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase a maximum of 1,811,824,531 Shares, being 10% of the entire issued share capital of the Company.

2. REASONS FOR SHARES REPURCHASE

The Directors believe that the Repurchase Mandate is in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole. Whilst it is not possible to anticipate in advance any specific circumstance in which the Directors might think it appropriate to repurchase Shares, they believe that an ability to do so would give the Company additional flexibility that would be beneficial to the Company and its Shareholders as a whole as such repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at that time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value per Share and/ or earnings per Share. Shareholders can be assured that the Directors would only make such purchases in circumstances where they consider them to be in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

3. FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

Repurchases must be made out of funds which are legally available for such purpose in accordance with the memorandum and articles of association of the Company, the Listing Rules and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands and Hong Kong. It is envisaged that the funds required for any repurchases would be derived from the distributable profits of the Company.

The Directors consider that the utilization of the Repurchase Mandate in full may not have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing level of the Company (as compared with the position disclosed in its latest published audited financial statements as at 31 December 2007), the Directors do not propose to exercise the

— 48 —

APPENDIX IV EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

Repurchase Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital or the gearing level (as compared with the position disclosed in its most recent published audited accounts) which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

4. SHARE PRICES

The highest and lowest prices at which the Shares traded on the Stock Exchange during each of the previous twelve months before the printing of this circular are as follows:

Price Per Share
Highest Lowest

APPENDIX IV EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

5. UNDERTAKING

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the powers of the Company to make repurchases pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate and in accordance with the Listing Rules, the memorandum and articles of association of the Company and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge and belief having made all reasonable enquiries, their associates have any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

No connected persons (as defined in the Listing Rules) have notified the Company that they have a present intention to sell Shares to the Company or its subsidiaries, nor have undertaken not to do so, in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is granted by the Shareholders.

6. TAKEOVERS CODE AND THE PUBLIC FLOAT REQUIREMENT

If a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting capital of the Company increases as a result of a share repurchase, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of the Takeovers Code and, if such increase results in a change of control, may in certain circumstances give rise to an obligation to make a general offer for Shares under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

CBC China Media Limited (formerly Speedy Swift Investments Limited), the single largest shareholder of the Company (controlled by China Broadband Capital Partners, L.P.), held 3,553,700,000 Shares representing approximately 19.61% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date.

The Directors are not aware of any consequences which will arise under the Takeovers Code even if the Repurchase Mandate is utilized in full. CBC China Media Limited’s interest in the Shares would increase to approximately 21.79% of the issued share capital of the Company if the Repurchase Mandate were to be utilized in full, with all other things remaining equal. Accordingly, such increase would not give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

The Directors will not exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent which would result in the number of Shares held by the public falling below 25% of the total number of Shares in issue.

7. SHARE REPURCHASES MADE BY THE COMPANY

The Company had not repurchased any Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) in the six months preceding the Latest Practicable Date.
