To Shareholders of the Company,

Dear Sir or Madam,

PROPOSED GENERAL MANDATES TO ISSUE SHARES AND REPURCHASE SECURITIES, RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS AND

NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

INTRODUCTION

It is proposed that at the Annual General Meeting of China Aerospace International Holdings Limited be held on Thursday, 13 May 2010, the notice of which is set out on pages 15 to 18 of this document. The Shareholders are requested to consider and, if appropriate, to grant the Directors general mandates to issue and repurchase securities of the Company and to re-elect Directors.

– 2 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

In accordance with the Listing Rules, the Company is required to send to its shareholders an explanatory statement containing information reasonably necessary to enable the shareholders to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the resolution to approve the granting of a mandate to the Directors to exercise the powers of the Company to purchase its own securities. The purpose of this document is to set out such information in relation to the proposed mandate, the re-election of Directors and the Annual General Meeting.

GENERAL MANDATES TO ISSUE SHARES AND REPURCHASE SECURITIES

At the Annual General Meeting, an ordinary resolution will be proposed whereby the Directors will be given a general and unconditional mandate to allot, issue and otherwise deal with new Shares representing up to 20 per cent. of the aggregate nominal amount of the share capital of the Company in issue as at the date the resolution is passed. As of the Latest Practicable Date, the number of issued Shares of the Company is 3,085,021,882. In addition, conditional upon the proposed resolution to authorise the repurchase of securities as is more particularly described under the paragraph headed ‘‘Shareholders’ Approval’’ in the section headed ‘‘Explanatory Statement on the Repurchase Proposal’’ being passed, an ordinary resolution will be proposed to authorise the Directors to allot, issue and otherwise deal with new Shares up to an amount equal to the aggregate nominal amount of the Shares purchased under the authority to repurchase. In accordance with the Listing Rules, the Company may not make a new issue of Shares or announce a proposed new issue of Shares for a period of 30 days after any purchase by it of Shares, whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise, other than an issue of securities pursuant to the exercise of warrants, share options or similar instruments requiring the Company to issue securities which were outstanding prior to that purchase of its own securities, without the prior approval of the Stock Exchange.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE PROPOSAL

Shareholders’ Approval

At the Annual General Meeting, an ordinary resolution will be proposed for Shareholders’ approval whereby the Directors will be given a general and unconditional mandate to exercise all powers of the Company to repurchase issued Shares subject to the criteria set out in this document.

While it is not possible to anticipate in advance any specific circumstances in which the Directors might think it is appropriate to repurchase securities, the Directors believe that the grant of a general mandate to repurchase securities to a maximum of 10 per cent. of the aggregate nominal amount of the share capital of the Company as at the date the resolution is passed, of 308,502,188 Shares as of the Latest Practicable Date, would give the Company additional flexibility that would be beneficial if the Shareholders approve the same. The repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements of the Company at the 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. On the basis of the consolidated financial position of the Company as at 31

– 3 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

December 2009 (being the date to which the latest published audited accounts of the Company have been made up) and in particular the working capital or gearing position of the Company at that time and the number of Shares now in issue, the Directors consider that there may be a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company in the event that the proposed purchases were to be carried out in full at any time during the proposed purchase period. However, no purchase would be made in circumstances that would have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company (as compared with the financial position as at 31 December 2009).

Source of Funds

The Company is empowered by its Memorandum and Articles of Association to purchase its Shares. Purchase of Shares must be funded out of funds legally available for the purpose in accordance with the Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association and the laws of Hong Kong.

Directors and connected persons

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge and belief having made all reasonable enquiries, any of the associates (as defined in the Listing Rules) of any of the Directors have any present intention, in the event that the grant to the Directors of a repurchase mandate is approved by the Shareholders, to sell Shares to the Company.

No persons who are connected persons (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company have notified the Company that they have a present intention to sell Shares to the Company nor have they undertaken not to sell any of the Shares held by them to the Company in the event that the Company is authorised to make purchases of Shares. In accordance with the Listing Rules, the Company shall not knowingly purchase Shares from a connected person on the Stock Exchange and a connected person shall not knowingly sell his Shares to the Company.

Undertaking to the Stock Exchange

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange to exercise the power of the Company to make purchases pursuant to the proposed resolution in accordance with the Listing Rules, all applicable laws of Hong Kong, the jurisdiction in which the Company is incorporated, and in accordance with the Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company.

Hong Kong Code on Takeovers and Mergers

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

– 4 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

As at the Latest Practicable Date, and according to the register of substantial shareholders’ interests maintained pursuant to Part XV of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Chapter 571) of the Laws of Hong Kong, the following Shareholders were interested in 5 per cent., or more of the issued share capital of the Company:

Notes:

  1. These 1,143,330,636 Shares are duplicated in the interests held by Jetcote Investments Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of China Aerospace Science & Technology Corporation, and its subsidiaries.

  2. Both Burhill Company Limited and Sin King Enterprises Company Limited are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Jetcote Investments Limited. The Shares held by them form part of the total number of Shares held by Jetcote Investments Limited.

In the event that the Directors exercise in full the power to repurchase Shares which is proposed to be granted pursuant to the Repurchase Proposal, then (if the present shareholdings otherwise remain the same) the attributable shareholdings of China Aerospace Science & Technology Corporation, Jetcote Investments Limited, Burhill Company Limited and Sin King Enterprises Company Limited in the Company would be increased to approximately 41.18 per cent. of the issued share capital of the Company. The Directors consider that such increase would give rise to China Aerospace Science & Technology Corporation an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code and do not have the intention to repurchase the Shares to such extent at present. The Directors are not aware of any other consequence which would arise under the Takeovers Code as a result of any purchases by the Company of its Shares.
