PROPOSED CHANGE OF COMPANY NAME

The Board proposed to change the name of the Company from “ (Guangdong Kelon Electrical Holdings Company Limited)” to “ (Hisense Kelon Electrical Holdings Company Limited)”.

Reasons for the Change of Company’s Name

The Company is principally engaged in the manufacturing and sales of air-conditioners and refrigerators. Hisense Group is a renowned company engaging in manufacturing and sales of electrical appliances. As a result of the completion of the equity transfer from Guangdong Greencool, the Company’s former substantial shareholder, to Hisnese Air-conditioning in December 2006, Hisense Air-conditioning has become the single largest shareholder of the Company.

In order to make use of the market influence of the “Hisense” brand, enhance the image of the Company and better reflect the Company’s plan for its future operations and business strategy, the Board proposed, upon approval by the shareholders at the AGM and the relevant governmental authorities in the PRC, to change the name of the Company to (Hisense Kelon Electrical Holdings Company Limited). The Company will make further announcement regarding the change of its name in compliance with the requirements of the Listing Rules once the proposal for the change of Company’s name is approved at the AGM.

– 3 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The proposed change of company name was preliminarily approved by the State Administration for Industry and Commerce of the PRC on 9 April 2007 and is conditional upon (i) the passing of an ordinary resolution by the shareholders approving such change at the AGM; and (ii) the further approval by the State Administration for Industry and Commerce of the PRC and other relevant authorities in the PRC.

It is not the current intention of the Company to provide any free exchange of the existing share certificates with its shareholders. The Company is still considering whether there will be any change of the stock trading name of the Company. Further announcement will be made by the Company in due course.

Share Certificates

The share certificates bearing the existing name of the Company will not affect any rights of the Shareholders. After the effective change of the new company name, all existing share certificates bearing the present name of the Company will continue to be evidence of titles to the shares and will be valid for trading, settlement, registration and delivery for the same number of shares in the new name of the Company. Upon the effective change of the company name, any new share certificates of the Company shall be issued in the new name of the Company.

PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION

In view of the proposed change of the name of the Company and the completion of share reform, the directors of the Company proposed a special resolution at the AGM to amend the Articles of Association as follows:

PROPOSED RESOLUTION FOR THE APPROVAL OF THE RELATED MATTERS RELATING TO POSSIBLE SUSPENSION OR DELISTING OF THE A SHARES OF THE COMPANY

As the auditor has issued the qualified opinions on the capitals of the Company embezzled by Greencool Enterprise Development Company Limited (the former controlling shareholder of the Company), the Company will be likely to trigger the provisions in respect of suspension or termination of listing status pursuant to Rule 14.1.3 of the Listing Rules of the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. In the opinion of the Board of the Company, the reasons for such qualified opinions are rather special as the Greencool case is still undergoing the litigation process, the Company will proactively negotiate with the regulatory authority to waive the application of such rule on the Company. The Board of the Company has made the following resolutions in the Board meeting on 26 April 2007 in respect of such case or the relevant issues:

  1. In the event that the Company’s shares are suspended for listing, the Company will enter into an agreement with a securities firm qualified to act as a sponsor to resume

  1. In the event that the Company’s shares are suspended for listing, the Company shall enter into an agreement with China Registrars and Clearing Limited with terms (including but not limited to): if the Company’s shares are delisted, the Company shall entrust it as the provider of custodian, registration and clearing services for all the Company’s shares.

  2. In the event that the Company’s shares are delisted, the Company shall apply to transfer its shares in the share transfers system. The Board is authorized at the general meeting to proceed with the relevant issues, such as delisting of the Company’s shares and transfer of the Company’s shares in the share transfer system.
