The original redemption price was RMB106.70/bond (including interest for the current period (net of tax) of RMB4.70).

As required under the relevant provisions in the Prospectus of the Convertible Bonds of Tianjin Capital Environmental Protection Company Limited, if the national statutory five year deposit interest rate on the interest payment registration date of the fourth interest accruing year is higher than 2.79%, then the nominal interest rate of the fourth year of the A Share Convertible Bonds will be adjusted to 90% of the statutory five year deposit interest rate on the interest payment registration date, the level of the adjusted interest rate to be rounded to 2 decimal points. As the People’s Bank of China raised the base interest rates on deposits of financial institutions on 22 August 2007 and the national statutory five year deposit interest rate was adjusted to 5.49%, the nominal annual interest rate of A Share Convertible Bonds for the fourth year was accordingly adjusted to 4.94%, that is, the interest of each A Share Convertible Bond of nominal value of RMB100 is RMB4.94 (tax inclusive).
