To the holders of H Shares

Dear Sir/Madam,

PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION

Articles of Association of the Company are amended according to the Notice of Amendments to Articles of Association of Companies Listed in Domestic and Overseas Markets(Document Zheng Jian Company Zi [2001] No. 104) issued by the China Securities Regulatory Commission (the "CSRC") and the Standards for Governance of Listed Companies (Document Zheng Jian Fa [2002] No. 1) jointly issued by the CSRC and the State Economic and Trade Commission on 7 January 2002 (the "Standard")) and the Guiding Opinions on the Establishment of Independent Director System by Listed Companies (Document Zheng Jian Fa [2002] No. 102 issued by the CSRC on 16 August 2001) (the "Guiding Opinions").

The Board of Directors would like to propose certain amendments to the Articles of Association of the Company in accordance with the Standards an the Guiding Opinions for shareholders' approval at an extraordinary general meeting. It is hoped that by introducing these amendments, the Company could foster regulation of its operation, enhance the corporate governance of the Company as a separate legal entity, and protect the legal rights and interests of the Company and its shareholders.

The Board of Directors believes that the proposed amendments do not cause any substantive changes to the content of the original Articles of Association in terms of their adherence to the "Mandatory Provisions or Companies listing Overseas" ("Mandatory Provisions") issued on 27 August 1994 by the then State Council Securities Policy Committee and the State Commission for Restructuring the Economic System. Therefore, both the directors of the Company and the Company's legal advisor confirm that the amended Articles of Association will still satisfy the requirements of the Mandatory Provisions.
