This announcement is made at the request of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Stock Exchange”).

The Board has noted the recent increases in market price and trading volume of the shares of the Company (the “Increases”) and wish to state that they are not aware of any reasons for such increases save as disclosed in this announcement.

Regarding the Increases, Credit Card DNA Security System (Holdings) Ltd. (the “Company”) has inquired each of the substantial shareholders and the directors of the Company in respect of dealings in shares of the Company. Upon enquiry by the Company, Win Channel Investments Limited (“Win Channel”), one of the substantial shareholders of the Company, informed the Company that Win Channel had disposed of 952,192,348 shares, 347,000,000 shares and 347,000,000 shares of the Company (the “Disposed Shares”), representing approximately 13.4%, 4.9% and 4.9% respectively of the entire issued share capital of the Company, at a price of HK$0.013 per share (the “Disposal Price”) to Ming Sang Finance Limited, Yim Sang and Ng Chi Shing respectively (the “Purchasers”) on 16th February, 2004. The Disposal Price represented a discount of approximately 43.5% over the closing price of the shares of the Company of HK$0.023 on 16th February, 2004.

The Purchasers are independent of and not acting in concert with each other. All of the Purchasers and their ultimate beneficial owners are independent third parties not connected with or acting in concert with the Company, its directors, chief executive, substantial shareholders and any of their respective subsidiaries, or an associate of any of them, except that Ming Sang Finance Limited is an existing shareholder of the Company who held 414,645,000 shares of the Company, representing approximately 5.9% of the entire issued share capital of the Company, prior to the disposal and Yim Sang is a holder of a convertible bond of the Company in an aggregate amount of HK$12.6 million (the “Bond”).

Assuming the Bond is converted on 16th February, 2004, being the last trading day before the release of this announcement, approximately 787,500,000 shares of the Company will fall to be issued representing approximately 11.1% of the entire issued share capital of the Company. Taking into account the 347,000,000 shares disposed by Win Channel to Yim Sang, Yim Sang will hold 1,134,500,000 shares of the Company upon full conversion of the Bond, representing approximately 16.0% of the issued share capital of the Company and 14.4% of the issued share capital of the Company as enlarged by the conversion of the Bond.
