CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM

GEM has been established as a market designed to accommodate companies to which a high investment risk may be attached. In particular, companies may list on GEM with neither a track record of profitability nor any obligation to forecast future profitability. Furthermore, there may be risks arising out of the emerging nature of companies listed on GEM and the business sectors or countries in which the companies operate. Prospective investors should be aware of the potential risks of investing in such companies and should make the decision to invest only after due and careful consideration. The greater risk profile and other characteristics of GEM mean that it is a market more suited to professional and other sophisticated investors.

Given the emerging nature of companies listed on GEM, there is a risk that securities traded on GEM may be more susceptible to high market volatility than securities traded on the main board of the Stock Exchange and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

The principal means of information dissemination on GEM is publication on the internet website operated by the Stock Exchange. Listed companies are not generally required to issue paid announcements in gazetted newspapers. Accordingly, prospective investors should note that they need to have access to the GEM website in order to obtain up-to-date information on GEM-listed issuers.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Independent Board Committee has been established to advise the Independent Shareholders on whether the Transactions and the annual cap for the Manufacture Agreement are fair and reasonable and in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. In this respect, KGI has been appointed as the independent financial adviser to advise the Independent Board Committee as to whether the terms of the Transactions and the annual cap for the Manufacture Agreement are fair and reasonable and in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

The purpose of this circular is to provide you with details of the Transactions and the annual cap for the Manufacture Agreement, the recommendation of the Independent Board Committee, the advice from KGI to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders in relation to the Transactions and the annual cap for the Manufacture Agreement and to give you notice of the EGM to be convened for the purpose of considering and, if thought fit, approving the Transactions and the annual cap for the Manufacture Agreement by way of poll.

THE AGREEMENTS

The TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement

The principal terms of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement are as follows: Date : 30 December 2005 Parties : (i) Datang Mobile; and (ii) the Joint Venture Company Datang Mobile is a non wholly-owned subsidiary of Datang Telecom, a state-owned enterprise in the PRC. To the best of the knowledge, information and belief of the Directors having made all reasonable enquiry, each of the other shareholders of Datang Mobile and where such other shareholders of Datang Mobile are corporations, whose respective ultimate beneficial owners are Independent Third Parties. Licence rights : Datang Mobile agreed to grant the non-exclusive licence to the Joint Venture Company for using its self-developed TDSCDMA mini-cellular base station technology for manufacturing and sale of the Products in accordance with the Manufacture Agreement.

As at 30 June 2006, being the latest financial period end date of the Company for which financial results has been published, the net book value of the licence rights was approximately RMB57.47 million (equivalent to approximately HK$55.26 million).

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Term : Nine years commencing from the date of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement, being 30 December 2005. Consideration : RMB60,855,100 (equivalent to approximately HK$58,514,519). Pursuant to the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement, a first installment of the consideration of RMB32,360,000 (equivalent to approximately HK$31,115,385) has to be settled by the Joint Venture Company within ten Business Days following the date of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement. The remaining balance of RMB28,495,100 (equivalent to approximately HK$27,399,135) has to be settled within four months following the date of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement.

The consideration was arrived at after arm’s length negotiation between the Joint Venture Company and Datang Mobile with reference to comparable transaction involving the transfer of telecommunication technology licence.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Joint Venture Company has already paid RMB28 million (equivalent to approximately HK$26.92 million) to Datang Mobile. The payment of the consideration has not been made in accordance with the original payment schedule as stipulated in the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement. The operation of the Joint Venture Company has not been in full thrust awaiting the policy regarding the standard of 3G technology in the PRC to be formulated, thus the parties consider unnecessary at this stage to deploy the resources of the Joint Venture Company as originally scheduled. The directors of the Joint Venture Company are still in the process of liaising with Datang Mobile to revise the payment schedule of the consideration in order to match with the timing of policy formulation by relevant authorities in the PRC regarding the standard of 3G technology.

The consideration has been and will be settled by internal resources of the Joint Venture Company.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Manufacture Agreement

The principal terms of the Manufacture Agreement are as follows:

Date : 30 December 2005 Parties : (iii) Datang Mobile as the purchaser; and (iv) the Joint Venture Company as the supplier Subject : Datang Mobile agreed to purchase and the Joint Venture Company agreed to sell the Products manufactured by the Joint Venture Company on an exclusive basis. Term : Six years commencing from the date of the Manufacture Agreement, being 30 December 2005. Selling price : The selling prices of the Products are determined on the basis of BOM costs plus certain fixed percentage of margin which the Directors consider to be in normal commercial terms. Annual cap : RMB300 million for each of the financial years ending 31 December 2008. The Company will review the annual cap upon the expiry of the initial three-year period and will then apply for annual caps for the remaining three years duration of the Manufacture Agreement in accordance with the GEM Listing Rules.

The annual caps were determined after taking into consideration of the maximum annual manufacturing capacity for the Products of the Joint Venture Company arrived at based on the existing facilities of the Joint Venture Company and production lead time of the Products, and the estimated selling price for the Products based on the above formula.

The operation of the Joint Venture Company has not been in full thrust awaiting the policy regarding the standard of 3G technology in the PRC to be formulated. Save for some trial running operations, the Joint Venture Company has not commenced the manufacturing of the Products under the Manufacture Agreement. Thus no revenue in relation to the selling of Products to Datang Mobile has been recognized for the six months ended 30 June 2006.

Other related agreement

The Company has also entered into the Intelligent Antenna Technology Licence Agreement with the Joint Venture Company on 30 December 2005, pursuant to which the

– 8 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Company has granted an exclusive licence to the Joint Venture Company for using its TDSCDMA intelligent antenna technology to manufacture TD-SCDMA intelligent antennas for a period of nine years commencing from the date of the agreement at a consideration of RMB22 million (equivalent to approximately HK$21.15 million). The entering of the Intelligent Antenna Technology Licence Agreement is exempted from reporting, announcement and independent Shareholders’ approval requirements pursuant to Rule 20.31(1) of the GEM Listing Rules.

REASONS FOR THE TRANSACTIONS

As referred to in the announcement of the Company dated 16 November 2005, the Directors believe that through the establishment of the Joint Venture Company, the Group’s sales and distribution network for its mobile communication products will be strengthened and the range of its products, in particular, products relating to TD-SCDMA technology will be expanded. Furthermore, the establishment of the Joint Venture Company will allow the Company to further penetrate the mobile communication product market in the PRC and broaden its geographic scope. The Directors consider that the earning base of the Group will be enlarged when the Joint Venture Company commences to generate profits.

The conditions precedent for the payment obligations under the Joint Venture Agreement included, among other things, the Joint Venture Company entered into the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Manufacture Agreement. Thus the entering of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Manufacture Agreement is essential for the Joint Venture Company to achieve the abovementioned benefits to the Group.

The Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) consider that the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Manufacture Agreement have been entered into in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group, the terms of which are on normal commercial terms and the Transactions are in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF THE TRANSACTIONS TO THE GROUP

The Directors confirm that no material adverse effect on the working capital position of the Group nor any material negative impact on the assets and liabilities of the Group will be arose as a result of the completion of the Transaction. And in light of the above benefits which the Directors expect to be bring about as a result of the Transactions, the Directors believe that the Transactions will have a positive impact on the earnings of the Group in the future.

NON-COMPLIANCE WITH THE GEM LISTING RULES

Since the entering of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Manufacture Agreement by the Joint Venture Company constituted major and connected transaction and continuing connected transaction of the Company respectively, the entering of each of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Manufacture Agreement

– 9 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

were subject to announcement and shareholders’ approval requirement under Chapter 19 and 20 of the GEM Listing Rules. However, the Company has failed to comply with the said requirements after the entering of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Manufacture Agreement by the Joint Venture Company on 30 December 2005. The Company seeks the ratification of the Transactions by, inter alia, issuing the announcement dated 23 August 2006, this circular and obtaining shareholders’ approval at the EGM, in order to fulfill the relevant requirements under the GEM Listing Rules.

The Board will take appropriate remedial action so as to avoid future breaches of the GEM Listing Rules.

INFORMATION OF THE PARTIES

The Company is a high-technology enterprise principally engaged in the research and development, manufacture and sale of base station antennas and related products. In connection with such principal business, the Company also provides technical support, system integration and installation services of base station antennas. The Company provides products and services to corporate clients comprising PRC’s mobile communication network operators and mobile communication equipment vendors/system integrators.

Based on the information in its website, Datang Mobile, registered and established on 8 February 2002 in Beijing, the PRC, is one of the core members of Datang Telecom. Capitalizing on its research and development capability and regional advantage, Datang Mobile is mainly engaged in the production of TD-SCDMA infrastructure and terminal products and the development of relevant extended technologies and products. As extracted from its website, Datang Telecom is a large high-tech industry group focusing on the R&D, production and sales of telecommunications equipment. The flagship company of Datang Telecom is Datang Telecom Technology Co., Ltd., an enterprise established in the PRC with its shares listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange and whose principal business includes the development, production and sale of communication equipment and the provision of related technical services in the PRC.

The Joint Venture Company has been engaged in research and development, manufacture, provision of consultancy and services in respect of TD-SCDMA systems and equipment, multi-media communication systems and wireless distribution systems.

IMPLICATION UNDER THE GEM LISTING RULES

As the consideration payable under the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement exceeded 25% but not more than 100% of the market capitalization of the Company, the entering of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement by the Joint Venture Company constituted a major transaction of the Company under the GEM Listing Rules. As at the Transaction Date and the Latest Practicable Date, Datang Mobile interested in 35% of the Joint Venture Company, a non-wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, thus it is a connected person of the Company within the meaning of the GEM Listing Rules. As such, the entering of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement by the Joint Venture Company also constituted a connected transaction of the Company.

– 10 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

As each of the applicable percentage ratios (other than the profit ratios) is on an annual basis more than 25%, the entering of the Manufacture Agreement by the Joint Venture Company with Datang Mobile constituted a non-exempted continuing connected transaction of the Company under the GEM Listing Rules. In addition, pursuant to Rule 20.35(1) of the GEM Listing Rules, KGI, the independent financial advisers appointed by the Company have to advise on the necessity of the duration of the Manufacture Agreement which is longer than three years and to confirm that the six years duration of the Manufacture Agreement is normal business practice for contracts of this type.

Each of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Manufacture Agreement and the annual caps associated to the Manufacture Agreement is subject to independent Shareholders’ approval requirement as stipulated under Rule 20.52 of the GEM Listing Rules. The voting at the EGM in respect of the resolutions for approving the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Manufacture Agreement and the annual caps associated to the Manufacture Agreement, for which no Shareholder is required to abstain from voting, will be taken by poll.

RECOMMENDATION

The Board considers that the terms of the Transactions and the annual caps for the Manufacture Agreement referred to in this circular are fair and reasonable and in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole and, accordingly, recommend you to vote in favour of the resolutions regarding the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement, the Manufacture Agreement and the annual caps for the Manufacture Agreement contemplated thereunder to be proposed at the EGM.

Your attention is also drawn to the Appendices to this circular.

LETTER OF ADVICE FROM KGI

As referred to the Letter, the Joint Venture Company is a non-wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, which is principally engaged in research and development, manufacture, provision of consultancy and services in respect of TD-SCDMA systems and equipment, multi-media communication systems and wireless distribution systems.

Based on the information disclosed in the website of Datang Telecom, Datang Mobile, registered and established on 8 February 2002 in Beijing, the PRC, is one of the core members of Datang Telecom. Capitalizing on its research and development capability and regional advantage, Datang Mobile is principally engaged in the production of TD-SCDMA infrastructure and terminal products and the development of relevant extended technologies and products. The flagship company of Datang Telecom is Datang Telecom Technology Co., Ltd., an enterprise established in the PRC with its shares listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange and whose principal business includes the development, production and sale of communication equipment and the provision of related technical services in the PRC.

As released in Beijing Review No. 9 2005 (the “Article”), TD-SCDMA is one of the three mainstream standards recognized by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) for 3G mobile communication technologies, and it is developed and proposed by Datang Mobile. The Article also stated that Datang Mobile is one of the three main 3G network equipment suppliers in the PRC market in relation to the mobile communication products.

  • (b) The Joint Venture Agreement, the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Manufacture Agreement

Pursuant to the Joint Venture Agreement, among other things, one of the conditions precedents for fulfilling the payment obligations under the Joint Venture Agreement was that the Joint Venture Company entered into the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Manufacture Agreement with Datang Mobile.

As stated in the Letter, the Directors believe that through the establishment of the Joint Venture Company, the Group’s sales and distribution network for its mobile communication products will be strengthened and the range of its products, in particular products relating to TD-SCDMA technology, will be expanded. Furthermore, it will allow the Company to further penetrate the mobile communication product market in the PRC and broaden its geographic scope. Thus, the entering of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Manufacture Agreement is essential for the Joint Venture Company to achieve the abovementioned benefits to the Group. We concur with the Directors’ views that the Group will strengthen its earning base when the Joint Venture Company commences to generate profits.

2. Terms of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Manufacture Agreement

The principal terms of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Manufacture Agreement have been summarised under the section headed “The Agreements” in the Letter.

  • (a) The TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement

Pursuant to the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement entered into between Datang Mobile and the Joint Venture Company, Datang Mobile agreed to grant the non-exclusive licence to the Joint Venture Company for using its TD-SCDMA mini-cellular base station technology for manufacturing and sale of the Products in accordance with the Manufacture Agreement.

As stated in the Letter, the consideration for the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement is RMB60,855,100 (equivalent to approximately HK$58.5 million). We have reviewed the information provided by the Directors relating to the consideration for a similar telecommunication technology licence agreement paid by an overseas independent manufacturer of mobile communication equipment to Datang Mobile and noted that the consideration pursuant to the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement paid by the Joint Venture Company to Datang Mobile is comparable to those paid by the overseas independent manufacturer of mobile communication equipment. As such, having considered:

  • the consideration of RMB60,855,100 (equivalent to approximately HK$58.5 million) for the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement with a term of nine years compared favourably with the terms and consideration for a similar telecommunication technology licence agreement entered into by an overseas independent manufacturer of mobile communication equipment and Datang Mobile with a shorter term and higher consideration;

– the consideration for the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement was arrived at after arm’s length negotiation between the Joint Venture Company and Datang Mobile with reference to comparable transaction involving the transfer of similar telecommunication technology licence; and

  • as Datang Mobile owns 35% equity interest of the Joint Venture Company, therefore, by providing the TD-SCDMA telecommunication technology at a favourable term and consideration when compared with those of the comparable transaction, Datang Mobile demonstrates its support to the development of 3G telecommunication technology business of the Joint Venture Company.

– 19 –

LETTER OF ADVICE FROM KGI

therefore, we are of the view that the consideration for the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement is in the interest of the Company and the Independent Shareholders as a whole.

Pursuant to the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement, the total consideration of RMB60,855,100 (equivalent to approximately HK$58.5 million) will be settled on the payment schedule as set out below:

  • first installment of the consideration of RMB32,360,000 (equivalent to approximately HK$31.1 million) has to be settled by the Joint Venture Company within ten Business Days following the date of the agreement;

  • the remaining balance of RMB28,495,100 (equivalent to approximately HK$27.4 million) has to be settled within four months following the date of the agreement.

As stated in the Letter, the payment of the consideration under the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement has not been made in accordance with the original payment schedule as stipulated in the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement, the Joint Venture Company has already paid RMB28 million (equivalent to approximately HK$26.92 million) up to the Latest Practicable Date. We understand from the Directors that the operation of the Joint Venture Company has not been in full thrust awaiting the policy regarding the standard of 3G technology in the PRC to be formulated and finalised, thus it is considered unnecessary at this stage to deploy the resources of the Joint Venture Company as originally scheduled. Given the fact that the timing of policy formulation and finalisation by relevant authorities in the PRC regarding the standard of 3G technology is still unknown as at the Latest Practicable Date, we consider that the delay in the original payment schedule in relation to the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement is justifiable.

(b) The Manufacture Agreement

Pursuant to the Manufacture Agreement entered into between Datang Mobile as the purchaser and the Joint Venture Company as the supplier, Datang Mobile agreed to purchase and the Joint Venture Company agreed to sell the Products manufactured by the Joint Venture Company on an exclusive basis. In addition, Datang Mobile is not allowed to produce the Products by itself or assign to any producers, apart from the Joint Venture Company, to produce the Products. Furthermore, the Joint Venture Company is the exclusive supplier of the Products to Datang Mobile.

Pursuant to the Manufacture Agreement, the selling prices of the Products sold by the Joint Venture Company to Datang Mobile are determined on the basis of BOM costs plus certain fixed percentage of margin. We understand from the Directors that the basis of BOM costs plus certain fixed percentage of margin is considered to be in normal commercial terms, and a profitable margin will be obtained after taking into account all the relevant costs including the licence fee incurred for the TD-

– 20 –

LETTER OF ADVICE FROM KGI

SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement. In addition, according to the Directors, the selling prices of the Products will be reviewed and adjusted at least four times per year in order to reflect the up-to-date market situation of the Products so as to maintain the competitive edge of the Company. In view of the above, we consider that the basis of determination of the selling prices of the Products pursuant to the Manufacture Agreement is fair and reasonable so far as the interests of the Independent Shareholders generally are concerned.

We note that the Manufacture Agreement entered into between Datang Mobile and the Joint Venture Company has a duration of six years, which is longer than three years as set out in Rule 20.35(1) of the GEM Listing Rules. In order to assess whether or not the six years duration of the Manufacture Agreement is a normal business practice for contracts of this type under the GEM Listing Rules, we have reviewed both the durations of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Manufacture Agreement as a whole, given the fact that the Manufacture Agreement is inextricably linked with the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement. As such, we have made references to, so far as we are aware of, the following similar technology/trademark licensing arrangements as announced by other Hong Kong listed companies during the period from 2004 to the Latest Practicable Date (the “Comparables”). Given the similar nature in terms of licencing arrangements of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Comparables, we consider that references of the Comparables can be used in assessing the duration of nine years of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the duration of six years of the Manufacture Agreement. The table below summarises the terms of the relevant agreements of the Comparables and we found four listed companies had executed similar technology/trademark transfer or licencing arrangements and we note that it is a normal business practice for contracts of this type to be of a term within the range from five to twenty years.

Comparables (Stock code) Reference date Nature of agreement Terms
COSCO International Holdings 15 June 2005 Technology transfer 13 years
Limited (0517)
Hang Ten Group Holdings 9 June 2004 Use of trademark 10 years
Limited (0448)
Qingling Motors Co. Ltd. (1122) 21 April 2006 Technology transfer 10 years
TCL International Holdings 31 May 2004 Use of trademark 5-20 years
Limited (1070)

In addition, having considered the followings:

  • (i) we understand from the Directors that the duration of six years is arrived at after arm’s length negotiation between the Joint Venture Company and Datang Mobile with reference to the development progress of 3G communication network and the timetable of officially release of 3G licence in the PRC;

– 21 –

LETTER OF ADVICE FROM KGI

  • (ii) the Products manufactured by the Joint Venture Company are exclusively sold under the TD-SCDMA technology, which is initiated and developed by Datang Mobile;

  • (iii) the Manufacture Agreement provides the Group with a exclusive longterm binding contractual relationship with Datang Mobile and thus to secure the sourcing of revenues of the Group;

  • (iv) the Manufacture Agreement is inextricably linked with the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement, which has a term of nine years. According to the Directors, the Manufacture Agreement will be reviewed with reference to the market situation at the time when the Manufacture Agreement expires. The Directors consider that this arrangement will provide flexibility to the Joint Venture Company; and

  • (v) one of the purposes of entering into the Manufacture Agreement is to facilitate the development and marketing of TD-SCDMA technology standard for 3G mobile communication industry in the PRC by Datang Mobile, being one of the three main 3G network equipment suppliers in the PRC,

therefore, we are of the view that the six years duration of the Manufacture Agreement is essential for the Group, and consider that the six years duration of the Manufacture Agreement is in the interests of the Company and the Independent Shareholders as a whole.

Having taking into account of the abovementioned factors, we are of the view that the basis of determination of the terms of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Manufacture Agreement is fair and reasonable so far as the interests of the Company and the Independent Shareholders generally are concerned.

3. Proposed annual caps amount

According to the Letter, the annual cap for each of the financial years ending 31 December 2008 associated with the Manufacture Agreement is arrived by taking into consideration of the maximum annual manufacturing capacity for the Products of the Joint Venture Company arrived at based on the existing facilities of the Joint Venture Company and production lead time of the Products, and the estimated selling price for the Products based on the calculation in terms of BOM costs plus certain fixed percentage of margin. The Directors considered that the annual caps will not exceed RMB300 million for each of the financial years ending 31 December 2008.

In view of (i) the anticipated good potential of the 3G telecommunication market in the PRC; and (ii) the governmental support of the development of the TD-SCDMA technology in the PRC, the Company will review the annual cap upon the expiry of the initial three-year period as at year ending 31 December 2008 and will apply for the approval of the annual caps for the remaining three years duration of the Manufacture Agreement in accordance with the GEM Listing Rules, depending on the market situation by that

– 22 –

LETTER OF ADVICE FROM KGI

time, we consider that the proposed annual caps amount for the Manufacture Agreement for each of the financial years ending 31 December 2008 is fair and reasonable so far as the interests of the Independent Shareholders generally are concerned.

4. Risks associated with the Transactions

  • (a) Uncertainty of the timetable of the official release of 3G licences in the PRC

In the view of the fact that the timetable of official release of 3G licences by relevant authorities in the PRC is still uncertain, hence, as discussed above, as at the Latest Practicable Date:

  1. the registered capital of the Joint Venture Company is not fully paid yet;

  2. the remaining balance of the consideration of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement of approximately RMB32.86 million (equivalent to approximately HK$31.59 million) to be payable by the Joint Venture Company to Datang Mobile is outstanding; and

  3. the remaining balance of the consideration of the Intelligent Antenna Technology Licence Agreement of approximately RMB11 million (equivalent to HK$10.58 million) to be payable by the Joint Venture Company to the Company is outstanding.

The Independent Shareholders should note that there is a risk for the Joint Venture Company to further delay the payment of the remaining balances of the consideration under the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Intelligent Antenna Technology Licence Agreement respectively and the corresponding delay of the manufacture and sale of the Products by the Joint Venture Company under the Manufacture Agreement, which may adversely affect the operations and the overall financial results of the Joint Venture Company.

  • (b) Non-exclusive use of TD-SCDMA mini-cellular base station technology under the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement

Although the specialized usage right of TD-SCDMA mini-cellular base station technology has been granted by Datang Mobile to the Joint Venture Company, such usage right is not exclusively granted to the Joint Venture Company. The Independent Shareholders should note that there will have the possibility of applying such right by other competitors to produce similar products in the PRC which may adversely affects the business or profitability of the Joint Venture Company in the future.

Nevertheless, we note that (i) the entering of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Manufacture Agreement are essential for the Joint Venture Company to achieve the benefits of enlarging the earning base of the Group; (ii) the market demand for the Products to be manufactured by the Joint Venture Company is expected to be high once the timetable of official releasing 3G licence in the PRC

– 23 –

LETTER OF ADVICE FROM KGI

having been confirmed; (iii) the potential growth of the PRC mobile telecommunication market in relation to TD-SCDMA technology; and (iv) the terms and considerations of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Manufacture Agreement are arrived after arm’s length negotiation, therefore we consider that the terms of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Manufacture Agreement are fair and reasonable so far as the interests of the Company and the Independent Shareholders are concerned.

RECOMMENDATION

Given the abovementioned risks, the Independent Shareholders should carefully evaluate potential risks and benefits associated with the Transactions in determining whether to vote for this resolution. Nevertheless, having considered the above principal factors and reasons, we are of the view that, on balance, the terms of the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Manufacture Agreement and the annual caps associated to the Manufacture Agreement are fair and reasonable so far as the interests of the Independent Shareholders are generally concerned and are in the interests of the Company and the Independent Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, we recommend the Independent Board Committee to advise the Independent Shareholders, and recommend the Independent Shareholders, to vote in favour of the ordinary resolutions to approve (i) the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement; and (ii) the Manufacture Agreement and the annual caps associated to the Manufacture Agreement that will be proposed at the EGM.

Yours faithfully, For and on behalf of KGI Capital Asia Limited Laurent Leung Jimmy Chan Director Senior Vice President

All significant inter-company transactions and balances within the Group are eliminated on consolidation.

c) Subsidiaries

A subsidiary is a company in which the Company directly or indirectly, controls more than half of its voting power or issued share capital or controls the composition of its board. Subsidiaries are considered to be controlled if the company has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies, so as to obtain benefits from their activities.

An investment in a controlled subsidiary is consolidated into the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.

d) Minority Interests

Minority interests at the balance sheet date, being the portion of the net assets of subsidiaries attributable to equity interests that are not owned by the company, whether directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, are presented in the consolidated balance sheet and statement of changes in equity within equity, separately from equity attributable to the equity shareholders of the company. Minority interests in the results of the group are presented on the face of the consolidated income statement as an allocation of the total profit or loss for the year between minority interests and the equity shareholders of the company.

e) Interests in leasehold land held for own use under operating leases

  • buildings held for own use which are situated on leasehold land, where the fair value of the building could be measured separately from the fair value of the leasehold land at the inception of the lease; and

  • other items of plant and equipment.

– 38 –

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

Changes arising on the revaluation of properties held for own use are generally dealt with in reserves. The only exceptions are as follows:

  • when a deficit arises on revaluation, it will be charged to profit or loss to the extent that it exceeds the amount held in the reserve in respect of that same asset immediately prior to the revaluation; and

  • when a surplus arises on revaluation, it will be credited to profit or loss to the extent that a deficit on revaluation in respect of that same asset had previously been charged to profit or loss.

The cost of self-constructed items of property, plant and equipment includes the cost of materials, direct labour, the initial estimate, where relevant, of the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located, and an appropriate proportion of production overheads and borrowing costs (see note 2(u)).

Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the items and are recognised in profit or loss on the date of retirement or disposal. Any related revaluation surplus is transferred from the revaluation reserve to retained profits.

Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost or valuation of items of property, plant and equipment, less their estimated residual value, if any, using the straight line method over their estimated useful lives as follows:

Buildings situated on leasehold land are depreciated over the shorter of the Buildings situated on leasehold land are depreciated over the shorter of the
unexpired term of lease and their estimated useful lives, being no more that 50
years after the date of completion.
Plant and machinery 3–10 years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment 5 years
Motor vehicles 8 years
Leasehold improvement Over the lease period

Where parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, the cost or valuation of the item is allocated on a reasonable basis between the parts and each part is depreciated separately. Both the useful life of an asset and its residual value, if any, are reviewed annually.

g) Other Financial Assets

Other financial assets are classified as available-for-sale financial assets and are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs. At each balance sheet date the fair value is remeasured, with any resultant gain or loss being recognised directly in equity, except for impairment losses (see note 2(k)) .

Investments are recognised/derecognised on the date the group and/or the company commits to purchase/sell the investments or they expire.

h) Research and Development Costs

Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred. Expenditure on development activities is capitalised if the product or process is technically and commercially feasible and the group has sufficient resources and the intention to complete development. The expenditure capitalised includes the costs of materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of overheads. Capitalised development costs are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. Other development expenditure is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

Amortisation of intangible assets is charged to income statement on a straight-line basis over the assets’ estimated useful lives at 5 years.

Both the period and method of amortisation and any conclusion that the useful life of development cost is indefinite are reviewed annually.

i)

Technological Know-how

Technological know-how represents purchase cost for the technical knowledge and skill in development and manufacturing telecommunication products, is stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and identified impairment loss.

Amortisation is calculated to write off the cost of the technological know-how over their estimated useful lives, using the straight line method, up to 10 years.

Both the period and method of amortisation and any conclusion that the useful life of technological know-how is indefinite are reviewed annually.

j)

Operating Leases

Where the group has the use of assets held under operating leases, payments made under the leases are charged to profit or loss in equal instalments over the accounting periods covered by the lease term, except where an alternative basis is more representative of the pattern of benefits to be derived from the leased asset. Lease incentives received are recognised in profit or loss as an integral part of the aggregate net lease payments made. Contingent rentals are charged to profit or loss in the accounting period in which they are incurred.

The cost of acquiring land held under an operating lease is amortised on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease term (see note 2(e)).

k) Impairment of Assets

Internal and external sources of information are reviewed at each balance sheet date to identify indications that the following assets may be impaired or, except in the case of goodwill, an impairment loss previously recognised no longer exists or may have decreased:

  • property, plant and equipment (other than properties carried at revalued amounts);

  • intangible assets; and

  • investments in subsidiaries.

If any such indication exists, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. In addition, for intangible assets that are not yet available for use and intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives, the recoverable amount is estimated annually whether or not there is any indication of impairment.

– Calculation of recoverable amount

The recoverable amount of an asset is the greater of its net selling price and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Where an asset does not generate cash inflows largely independent of those from other assets, the recoverable amount is determined for the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows independently (i.e. a cash-generating unit).

– 40 –

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

Recognition of impairment losses

An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss whenever the carrying amount of an asset, or the cash-generating unit to which it belongs, exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the cash-generating unit (or group of units) and then, to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit (or group of units) on a pro rata basis, except that the carrying value of an asset will not be reduced below its individual fair value less costs to sell, or value is use, if determinable.

Reversals of impairment losses

In respect of assets other than goodwill, an impairment loss is reversed if there has been a favourable change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed.

A reversal of an impairment loss is limited to the asset’s carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised in prior years. Reversals of impairment losses are credited to profit or loss in the year in which the reversals are recognised.

l)

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost, which comprises all costs of purchase and, where applicable, costs of conversion and other costs that have been incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition, is calculated using the weighted average cost method. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

When inventories are sold, the carrying amount of those inventories is recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised. The amount of any write-down of inventories to net realisable value and all losses of inventories are recognised as an expense in the period the write-down or loss occurs. The amount of any reversal of any write-down of inventories is recognised as a reduction in the amount of inventories recognised as an expense in the period in which the reversal occurs.

m) Trade and Other Receivables

Trade and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts.

n) Interest-bearing Borrowings

Interest-bearing borrowings are recognised initially at fair value less attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest-bearing borrowings are stated at amortised cost with any difference between cost and redemption value being recognised in income statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

o) Trade and Other Payables

Trade and other payables are initially recognised as fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.

– 41 –

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

p) Taxation

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the income statement because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years, and it further excludes income statement items that are never taxable or deductible.

Deferred tax is the tax expected to be payable or recoverable on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit, and is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the income statement, except when it relates to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity.

q) Provisions and Contingent Liabilities

Provisions are recognised for liabilities of uncertain timing or amount when the group or the company has a legal or constructive obligation arising as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made. Where the time value of money is material, provisions are stated at the present value of the expenditure expected to settle the obligation.

Where it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote.

r) Revenue Recognition

Sale of goods is recognised when goods are delivered and title has passed.

Service income is recognised when services are provided.

Interest income is accrued on a time proportion basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the interest rate applicable.

s) Government Grants

Government grants are recognised in the balance sheet initially as deferred income when there is reasonable assurance that they will be received and that the group will comply with the conditions attaching to them. Grants that compensate the group for expenses incurred are recognised as revenue in profit or loss on a systematic basis in the same periods in which the expenses are incurred. Grants that compensate the group for the cost of an asset are recognised in profit or loss as revenue on a systematic basis over the useful life of the asset.

– 42 –

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

t) Foreign Currencies

Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency, RMB, are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are re-translated at the rates prevailing on the balance sheet date. Profits and losses arising on translation are dealt with in the income statement.

For the purpose of preparing consolidated financial statements, the income statement of overseas subsidiaries expressed in currencies other than RMB are translated into RMB at the average rates of exchange for the year. The balance sheets of overseas subsidiary expressed in currencies other than RMB are translated into RMB at the rates of exchange ruling on the balance sheet date. All exchange differences arising therefrom are recognised as a separate component of equity.

u) Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs are expensed in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred, except to the extent that they are capitalised as being directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset which necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale.

The capitalisation of borrowing costs as part of the cost of a qualifying asset commences when expenditure for the asset is being incurred, borrowing costs are being incurred and activities that are necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are in progress. Capitalisation of borrowing costs is suspended or ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are interrupted or complete.

v) Related Parties

For the purposes of these financial statements, parties are considered to be related to the group if the group has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the party or exercise significant influence over the party in making financial and operating decisions, or vice versa, or where the group and the party are subject to common control or common significant influence. Related parties may be individuals (being members of key management personnel, significant shareholders and/or their close family members) or other entities and include entities which are under the significant influence of related parties of the group where those parties are individuals, and post-employment benefit plans which are for the benefit of employees of the group or of any entity that is a related party of the group.

w) Employee benefits

Salaries, annual bonuses, paid annual leave, and the cost of non-monetary benefits are accrued in the year in which the associated services are rendered by employees. Where payment or settlement is deferred and the effect would be material, these amounts are stated at their present values.

Payments to a state-managed retirement benefit scheme are charged as an expense as they fall due. Payments made to state-managed retirement benefit scheme are dealt with as payments to defined contribution benefit where the Group’s obligations under the scheme are equivalent to those arising in a defined contribution retirement benefit scheme.

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

x) Segment reporting

A segment is a distinguishable component of the group that is engaged either in providing products or services (business segment), or in providing products or services within a particular economic environment (geographical segment), which is subject to risks and rewards that are different from those of other segments.

In accordance with the group’s internal financial reporting system, the group has chosen business segment information as the primary reporting format and geographical segment information as the secondary reporting format for the purposes of these financial statements.

Segment revenue, expenses, results, assets and liabilities include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis to that segment. For example, segment assets may include inventories, trade receivables and property, plant and equipment. Segment revenue, expenses, assets, and liabilities are determined before Intra-group balances and intra-group transactions are eliminated as part of the consolidated process, except to the extent that such intra-group balances and transactions are between group entities within a single segment. Inter-segment pricing is based on similar terms as those available to other external parties.

Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the period to acquire segment assets (both tangible and intangible) that are expected to be used for more than one period.

Unallocated items mainly comprise financial and corporate assets, interest-bearing loans, borrowings, tax balances, corporate and financing expenses.

y) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions, and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, having been within three months of maturity at acquisition.

3. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: foreign exchange risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and cash flow interest-rate risk. The Group’s overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Group’s financial performance.

a) Foreign Exchange Risk

Most of the Group’s monetary assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB, and the Group conducted its business transactions principally in RMB. The exchange rate risk of the Group is not significant.

b) Credit Risks

The Group’s credit risk is primarily attributable to trade and other receivables. Management has a credit policy in place and the exposures to these credit risks are monitored on an ongoing basis.

– 44 –

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

c) Liquidity Risk

The Group’s objective is to maintain a balance between the continuity of funding and the flexibility through the use of bank overdrafts and bank loans.

d) Cash Flow and Fair Value Interest Rate Risk

As the Group has no significant interest-bearing assets, the Group’s income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates.

The Group’s interest-rate risk arises from long-term borrowings. Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the Group to cash flow interest-rate risk. Borrowings issued at fixed rates expose the Group to fair value interest-rate risk.

4. TURNOVER AND REVENUE

9. INCOME TAX EXPENSES

Currently, the Company is recognized by the Xi’an Municipal Bureau of Science and Technology as a high technology enterprise located in the Xi’an National High-tech Industrial Development Zone and is therefore subject to enterprise income tax (“EIT”) rate of 15%.

The amount represents provision for EIT on the estimated assessable profit of the Company and its subsidiaries for the year. Taxation for the overseas subsidiary is charged at the appropriate current rates of taxation ruling in the relevant country.

Subsequent to the 2005 year end, on 15 January 2006, the Company submitted an application to the relevant tax authority for exemption from EIT for the first two profitable years of operations (i.e. for the years ended 31 December 2005 and 2006 respectively) and 50% reduction on the EIT for the following three years. However, up to the date of this report, the Company has not received any approval from the relevant tax authority for its application for the tax holiday.

6. INCOME TAX CREDIT

The amount represented the reversal of over-provision for the Enterprise Income Tax (“EIT”) on the Group’s estimated assessable profit for the year 2005.

On 10 March 2006, the Company was granted the exemption from EIT for the first two profitable years of operations (i.e. for the years ended 31 December 2005 and 2006) and 50% reduction on the EIT for the following three years.

7. DIVIDEND

The Board does not recommend the payment of any interim dividend for the six months ended 30 June 2006 (2005: RMB0.015 per share).

8. BASIC EARNING (LOSS) PER SHARE

The calculation of the basic earning (loss) per share is based on the unaudited net loss for the three months and six months ended 30 June 2006 of approximately RMB9,837,000, and RMB18,853,000 respectively (three months and six months ended 30 June 2005: net profit of approximately RMB930,000 and net loss of approximately RMB9,437,000 respectively) divided by 647,058,824 shares in issue (2005: 647,058,824 shares).

No diluted earning (loss) per share have been presented because there is no potential ordinary share outstanding during either period.

9. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

During the period, the Group spent approximately RMB17.3 million (2005: RMB3.6 million) on acquisition of property, plant and equipment.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Business Review

The Group recorded an unaudited turnover of approximately RMB39.6 million and RMB67.5 million for the three months and six months ended 30 June 2006 respectively, representing a decrease of approximately 5.0% and an increase of approximately 5.1% compared with the unaudited turnover for the corresponding period in the year 2005. The increase was mainly resulted from the strategical focus of the Group on developing international markets which in turns become an expanding income source and contribute to broadened customer base. However, the increase was partly offset by the decrease in sales in domestic market due to conservative atmosphere in the wireless telecommunications industry in PRC and uncertainty over 3G licences. Although percentage of total sales of GSM/CDMA antenna series product decreased from approximately 58.0% for the corresponding period in the year 2005 to approximately 50.0% for the six months ended 30 June 2006, the product line remained as the major revenue contributor of the Group; while revenue generated from other antenna series grew by 481.3% and accounted for approximately 4.0% of the Group’s revenue in the corresponding period in 2005, compared to 22.0% in 2006 . In addition, turnover from 3G antenna series represented approximately 1.0% of total sales of the Group.

Gross Profit

During the six months ended 30 June 2006, unaudited gross profit amounted to approximately RMB18.4 million, gross profit margin was approximately 27.3%, represented a material decrease when compared to the gross profit margin of 45.5% for the corresponding period in the year 2005. The decrease was mainly due to (1) intense price pressure – major customers including China Mobile Group adopted the practice of central procurement of products which directly exert pressure on selling price; and (2) rising material prices including copper and oil over the period further deteriorated the situation.

Operating Costs and Expenses

Distribution costs for the six months ended 30 June 2006 amounted to approximately RMB14.4 million, representing a decrease of approximately RMB4.3 million or approximately 23.0% comparing with the corresponding period in the year 2005. The decrease was mainly due to the Group’s effort in streamlining the sales and marketing team and its operation which lead to a general decrease in distribution costs.

Administrative expenses had increased by RMB5.6 million or 59.6%, amounting to approximately RMB15.0 million comparing with the corresponding period in the year 2005. The increase is mainly due to the increased number of subsidiaries which contribute to a general increase in administrative expenses especially for payroll and professional fee.

Other operating expenses amounted to approximately RMB7.8 million, representing an increase of approximately RMB1.4 million or 21.9% comparing with the corresponding period in the year 2005. The increase was mainly resulted from the amortization of capitalized research and development cost and amortization of intangible assets.

Finance costs amounted to approximately RMB2.6 million, representing a decrease of approximately RMB1.7 million or 39.5% comparing with the corresponding period in the year 2005. The decrease was mainly due to decrease in average monthly bank loan balance during the current period when compared with the corresponding period in the year 2005.

Save as disclosed in the Company’s interim report for the six month period ended 30 June 2006, in particular, the net loss attributable to shareholders of approximately RMB18,853,000 for the six months ended 30 June 2006, the Directors are not aware of any material adverse change in the financial or trading position of the Group since 31 December 2005, the date to which the latest published audited consolidated financial statements of the Group were made up.

To make the best use of the opportunities emerged from the expected issuance of new mobile communication network operator licence and the launching of the third generation mobile communication services in the PRC, the TD-SCDMA Technology Licence Agreement and the Manufacturing Agreement can secure the Group with advanced production technology and broadened sales and distribution network.

Though the Group recorded loss for the six months ended 30 June 2006, the business prospect associated to the Transactions has not yet been reflected in the financial results of the Group as the operation of the Joint Venture Company has not been in full thrust awaiting the policy regarding the standard of 3G technology in the PRC to be formulated. The Directors are optimistic about the prospects of the Group’s business and believe that the financial status of the Group for the coming financial years will be improved and the earning base will be enlarged when the Group’s production capabilities relating to TDSCDMA technology related products are enhanced and the new products are introduced to the markets after the standard of 3G technology has been formulated in the PRC.

The Board is not aware of any special trade factors or risks which could materially affect the operating results of the Group.
