1 INTRODUCTION

Reference is made to the Announcement in relation to the S&P Agreement entered into between Lenovo Manufacturing and Lenovo Beijing as the vendors, Jade Ahead, LEV Ventures, Ample Growth and Super Pioneer as the purchasers, and the Company for the disposal of the entire registered capital of Lenovo Mobile by the Vendors to the Purchasers.

– 5 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

In addition, pursuant to the S&P Agreement, the Parties have agreed to, inter alia, the following terms:

(i) Lenovo Manufacturing or its designee shall have a right to subscribe from Lenovo Mobile for up to 5% of its total registered capital on a fully-diluted basis. The Option is exercisable at any time within four years following the Completion at an exercise price equals to the pro rata portion of the Consideration (subject to adjustment);
(ii) Lenovo Beijing agreed to arrange and procure an entrusted loan to be made available to Lenovo Mobile to be used as its working capital after Completion. The Entrusted Loan shall be in the form of a standby facilities in a principal amount of US$25,000,000;
(iii) Lenovo Beijing has agreed to provide certain transition services to Lenovo Mobile upon Completion and up to 31 March 2009; and
(iv) Lenovo Beijing has agreed to license and transfer certain trademarks and intellectual property rights to Lenovo Mobile after Completion. Lenovo Mobile has also agreed to extend certain patents owned by it to Lenovo Beijing after Completion.

Legend Holdings, the controlling Shareholder, is also indirectly interested in more than 30% of the issued share capital of each of Jade Ahead and Ample Growth. This results in Jade Ahead and Ample Growth being regarded as associates of Legend Holdings. Accordingly, each of Jade Ahead, Ample Growth and Lenovo Mobile (after the Completion), being an associate of a substantial shareholder of the Company, is a connected person of the Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. The transaction between any member of the Group on one hand, and Jade Ahead, Ample Growth or their associates (including Lenovo Mobile) on the other, is or will become (after Completion) a connected transaction of the Company.

As one or more of the applicable percentage ratios of the transactions contemplated under the S&P Agreement exceed 5% but are less than 25%, the S&P Agreement constitutes a discloseable transaction of the Company under the Listing Rules. In addition, as one or more of the applicable percentage ratios of the transactions contemplated under the S&P Agreement exceed 2.5%, the S&P Agreement also constitutes a non-exempt connected transaction under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. As such, the Disposal is subject to the approval by the Independent Shareholders at the EGM by poll.

The purpose of this circular is to provide you with further information in relation to the S&P Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

4 CONNECTED RELATIONSHIP

Legend Holdings, the controlling Shareholder, is indirectly interested in more than 30% of the issued share capital of each of Jade Ahead and Ample Growth. This results in Jade Ahead and Ample Growth being regarded as associates of Legend Holdings. Accordingly, each of Jade Ahead, Ample Growth and Lenovo Mobile (after the Completion), being an associate of a substantial Shareholder, is a connected person of the Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. The transaction between any member of the Group on one hand, and Jade Ahead, Ample Growth or their associates (including Lenovo Mobile) on the other, is or will become (after Completion) a connected transaction of the Company.

5 REASONS FOR THE TRANSACTIONS

The Group is principally engaged in the personal computer business. The Group has since 2002 started its mobile handset business through Lenovo Mobile. After five years of effort, the Company has decided to focus itself on personal computer business and withdraw from the mobile handset market.

The personal computer business and the current mobile handset business are two distinctive businesses where the room for achieving synergy is relatively limited. Being already a market leader in the personal computer business, the Company intends to progressively expand its core business. To achieve this, the Company will accelerate the roll-out of the transaction model across the globe, improve global supply chain cost and delivery, and focus on capturing growth opportunities in the consumer and emerging markets. The Directors consider that the disposal of the mobile handset business would provide the Group additional resources for supporting its expansion plan and enable the Group to deploy its entire management attention and capacity and financial resources to its mainstream business. Such decision on disposal is further reinforced by the significant capital investment requirement expected for handset business. The Directors are of the view that it will be difficult for the Group to generate reasonable return from the mobile handset business at least for the next few years in view of the increasing competition and capital expenditure requirement in the mobile handset market in the PRC.

As a result of the Disposal, the Directors expect that the Group would record an unaudited gain on the Disposal of approximately US$66,000,000 upon Completion, representing the difference between the Consideration and the expected carrying value of the Equity Interest as at the date of Completion. Upon Completion, the unaudited consolidated net asset value of the Group will be increased to the same extent of approximately US$66,000,000. The sales proceeds will be used for general working capital purposes. After the Completion, the Company will not have any interest in Lenovo Mobile and Lenovo Mobile will cease to be a subsidiary of the Company.

The Entrusted Loan and the Transition Services Agreement are part of the transition arrangements agreed to be provided by the Group under the S&P Agreement in consideration of the Purchasers agreeing to acquire the Equity Interest at the Consideration. In view of the Option granted to the Group, the Directors consider that it is in the mutual benefit of the Group and Lenovo Mobile to provide for the Entrusted Loan to ensure Lenovo Mobile has a stable cash-flow to support and finance its development of mobile handset business.

LETTER FROM DBS ASIA

The following is the text of the letter of advice from DBS Asia, the independent financial adviser to the Independent Board Committee and Independent Shareholders, in respect of the disposal of the equity interest in Lenovo Mobile, which has been prepared for the purpose of inclusion in this circular.

20 February 2008

To the Independent Board Committee and Independent Shareholders of Lenovo Group Limited

Dear Sirs,

DISCLOSEABLE AND CONNECTED TRANSACTION

DISPOSAL OF THE EQUITY INTEREST IN LENOVO MOBILE

INTRODUCTION

We refer to our engagement as the independent financial adviser to the Independent Board Committee and Independent Shareholders in respect of the disposal of the entire registered capital of Lenovo Mobile. On 30 January 2008, the S&P Agreement was entered into between Lenovo Manufacturing and Lenovo Beijing as the Vendors, Jade Ahead, LEV Ventures, Ample Growth and Super Pioneer as the Purchasers, and the Company, pursuant to which the Vendors have agreed to dispose of, and the Purchasers have agreed to purchase the entire registered capital of Lenovo Mobile. Further details of the Disposal are set out in the letter from the Board in the circular of the Company to its Shareholders dated 20 February 2008 (the “ Circular ”), of which this letter forms part. Capitalised terms used in this letter shall have the same meanings as those defined in the Circular unless the context otherwise requires.

As Legend Holdings, the controlling shareholder of the Company, is indirectly interested in more than 30% of the issued share capital of each of Jade Ahead and Ample Growth, Jade Ahead and Ample Growth are regarded as the associates of Legend Holdings. Accordingly, each of Jade Ahead, Ample Growth and Lenovo Mobile (after Completion), being an associate of a substantial shareholder of the Company, is a connected person of the Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. The Disposal, being a transaction between the Company on one hand, and Jade Ahead, Ample Growth or their associates (including Lenovo Mobile) on the other, is or will become (after Completion) a connected transaction for the Company. As such, the Disposal is subject to the approval of the Independent Shareholders at the EGM by poll.

The Disposal also constitutes a discloseable transaction for the Company under the Listing Rules as one or more of the applicable percentage ratios of the transaction contemplated under the S&P Agreement exceed 5% but are less than 25%.

– 21 –

LETTER FROM DBS ASIA

Our scope of work under this engagement is to assess whether the terms of the Disposal are fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned and, from this perspective, whether the Disposal is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole, and to advise the Independent Shareholders on how to vote on the Resolution.

BASIS OF OUR OPINION

In arriving at our opinion, we have relied on the information, opinions and facts supplied, and representations made to us, by the Directors, advisers and representatives of the Company (including those contained or referred to in the Circular). We have also assumed that the information and representations contained or referred to in the Circular were true and accurate in all respects at the time they were made and continue to be so at the date of dispatch of the Circular. We have no reason to doubt the truth, accuracy and completeness of the information and representations provided to us by the Directors. We have also relied on certain information available to the public and have assumed such information to be accurate and reliable, and we have not independently verified the accuracy of such information. We have been advised by the Directors and believe that no material facts have been omitted from the Circular.

We consider that we have reviewed sufficient information to reach an informed view, to justify reliance on the accuracy of the information contained in the Circular and to provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. We have not, however, conducted an independent verification of the information nor have we conducted any form of in-depth investigation into the businesses and affairs, or other prospects of the Company or any of its respective subsidiaries or associates.

KEY TERMS OF THE DISPOSAL

On 30 January 2008, the S&P Agreement was entered into between the Parties:

(i) Jade Ahead, LEV Ventures, Ample Growth and Super Pioneer as the Purchasers;
(ii) Lenovo Manufacturing and Lenovo Beijing, both being wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company, as the Vendors; and

(iii) the Company,

pursuant to which the Vendors have agreed to sell, and the Purchasers have agreed to purchase the Equity Interest free from any encumbrances and together with all rights and advantages attaching to it as at Completion. Pursuant to the S&P Agreement, Lenovo Beijing has also agreed to provide financial assistance to Lenovo Mobile by arranging for an Entrusted Loan to be made available to Lenovo Mobile after the Completion.

– 22 –

LETTER FROM DBS ASIA

The Consideration is US$100,000,000 (equivalent to approximately HK$780,000,000) to be adjusted by the amount of net working capital of Lenovo Mobile as at the date of Completion, and is to be paid by the Purchasers to the Vendors in cash in the following manner:

(i) 80% of the Consideration to be paid on the date of Completion; and
(ii) the remaining 20% of the Consideration to be adjusted by the amount of net working capital of Lenovo Mobile as at the date of Completion to be paid within three Business Days after the determination and agreement of the net working capital by the Parties. The definition of net working capital and detailed mechanism for the adjustment is set out in the S&P Agreement.

The Consideration was determined by arm’s length negotiation between the Parties having regard to a number of factors including the net asset value of Lenovo Mobile amounting to approximately RMB290,372,000 as at 31 December 2007, the total investment cost in Lenovo Mobile amounting to RMB223,500,000, the license of the intellectual properties, the Entrusted Loan to be extended to Lenovo Mobile upon Completion, as well as the value and goodwill attached to the trademarks and brand names used by Lenovo Mobile. In view of the above, the Disposal is based on normal commercial terms.

Given that rationalisation of business focus and strategy are undertaken by business corporates to enhance performance, we consider that the Disposal is within the ordinary course of business of the Group from this perspective.

PRINCIPAL FACTORS AND REASONS CONSIDERED

In reaching our opinion in respect of the Disposal (including the Transaction Documents), we have considered the following principal factors:

1. Background of the Company and Lenovo Mobile

1.1. The Group

The principal activities of the Company and its subsidiaries are the sale and manufacture of personal computers and related IT products, mobile devices, and the provision of advanced information services in the PRC, the Americas, Europe, Middle East, Africa and Asia Pacific. As at the Latest Practicable Date, Legend Holdings is directly or indirectly through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Right Lane Limited, interested in 4,170,411,971 Shares, representing approximately 43.41% of the total voting rights in the Company (including Shares and Series A convertible preferred shares which carry voting rights as if they were fully converted into Shares).

The Group has since 2002 started its mobile handset business through Lenovo Mobile.

1.2. Lenovo Mobile

Lenovo Mobile is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Lenovo Mobile is principally engaged in the manufacturing and distribution of mobile handsets in the PRC, a non-core business of the Company.

LETTER FROM DBS ASIA

2. Business overview

Overview of the mobile handset market in the PRC

Based on an independent industry report, the PRC mobile handset market has experienced substantial growth since 2003 and the compounded annual growth rate between 2003 and 2007 was 24.3%. The figures below illustrate the mobile handset sales to end users in the PRC between 2003 and 2007.

==> picture [36 x 150] intentionally omitted <==

Source: Gartner (October 2007)

The mobile handset manufacturing industry in the PRC is intensely competitive. Industry participants in the PRC compete with each other by applying cutting-edge technology and enriching their product portfolio especially in the mid to low-end mobile handset sector where Lenovo Mobile competes in. This has led to a decline in product price and a reduction of profit margins for the industry as a whole.

– 24 –

LETTER FROM DBS ASIA

The approval process for mobile handset manufacturers in the PRC has been relaxed. Prior to October 2007, verification was required for the manufacturing of mobile handsets in the PRC in accordance with the rule “Several Regulations on the Verification of Mobile Communication Systems and Terminal Product Investment Projects” issued by the National Development and Reform Commission (“ NDRC ”) in the PRC. The rule required mobile handset manufacturers to meet certain criteria including but not limited to minimum registered capital and operational record. Consequently, only a limited number of players obtained the necessary verification from NDRC to manufacture mobile handsets in the PRC. Such verification requirements were abolished in October 2007.

Although mobile handset sales in the PRC market has been on an upward trend in the past few years, Lenovo Mobile’s market share decreased from 5.1% in 2006 to 4.5% in the first half of 2007, according to a report published on 20 November 2007 by Gartner Inc.

3. Reasons for the Disposal

As stated in the Circular, the Group is principally engaged in the personal computer business. The Group has since 2002 started its mobile handset business through Lenovo Mobile. After five years of effort, the Company has decided to focus itself on the personal computer business and withdraw from the mobile handset market.

As stated in the Circular, the personal computer business and the current mobile handset business are two distinctive businesses where the room for achieving synergy is relatively limited. Being already a market leader in the personal computer business, the Company intends to progressively expand its core business. To achieve this, the Company will accelerate the roll-out of the transaction model across the globe, improve global supply chain cost and delivery, and focus on capturing growth opportunities in the consumer and emerging markets. The Directors consider that the disposal of the mobile handset business would provide the Group additional resources for supporting its expansion plan and enable the Group to deploy its entire management attention and capacity and financial resources to its mainstream business. Such decision on disposal is also attributable to the significant capital investment requirement expected for the forthcoming third generation (“ 3G ”) mobile technology. We understand from the management of the Company that it will be difficult for the Group to generate reasonable return from the mobile handset business at least for the next few years in view of the increasing competition and capital expenditure requirement in the mobile handset market in the PRC.

It is noted that the PRC is in the process of implementing its home-grown 3G mobile technology, namely the time division-synchronous code division multiple access (“ TDSCDMA ”). In order to compete effectively in the PRC mobile handset market, it is necessary to invest in TD-SCDMA capabilities and the Company will have to incur substantial capital expenditure in research, development and design to produce TD-SCDMA mobile handsets.

– 25 –

LETTER FROM DBS ASIA

As mentioned in the section “Business Overview” above, although mobile handset sales in the PRC market has been growing in recent years, the competitive landscape has also become increasingly challenging with the entry of new players. According to the management of Lenovo Mobile, these new market entrants compete mostly in similar product segments as Lenovo Mobile. The shipment of mobile handsets by Lenovo Mobile deteriorated quickly in the third and fourth quarters of 2007 and dropped by 8% and 31% year-on-year respectively.

As a result of the Disposal, the Directors expect that the Group would record an unaudited gain on the Disposal of approximately US$66,000,000 (equivalent to approximately HK$514,800,000) upon Completion, representing the difference between the Consideration and the expected carrying value of the Equity Interest as at the date of Completion. Upon Completion, the unaudited consolidated net asset value of the Group will be increased to the same extent of approximately US$66,000,000. The sale proceeds will be used for general working capital purposes. After the Completion, the Company will not have any interest in Lenovo Mobile which will cease to be a subsidiary of the Company.

4. Precedent transaction analysis

In considering the fairness and reasonableness of the Consideration, we have made reference to the terms of recent merger and takeover transactions in the cordless phone sector. Accordingly, we have reviewed transactions involving the acquisition of cordless phone manufacturers that operate in Hong Kong and the PRC which have been announced within the last three years with publicly available information (“ Precedent Transactions ”).

The table below sets out the valuation multiples at which the Precedent Transactions were announced.

Notes:

Price to book multiple compares valuation of the target implied by the Consideration with the target’s latest available financial results as at the announcement date of the transaction.
Price to sales multiple compares valuation of the target implied by the Consideration with the target’s latest available full year financial results as at the announcement date of the transaction.
Based on the announcement dated 18 January 2008 released by Concord (Group) Technology Holdings Limited, the consideration for this transaction was nil.
Based on the target company’s latest available financial results as at the announcement date of the transaction, the target company was in a net liability position. Accordingly, the price to book multiple of this transaction is not meaningful.
As there was no consideration for the transaction, the price to sales multiple for the transaction is not meaningful.
As the sales revenue of these target companies were not publicly available, the price to sales multiples of these transactions cannot be computed based on publicly available information.
Where the original figures were expressed in a currency other than HK$, exchange rate as at announcement date of the transaction was applied to translate the original figures to HK$ in this table.

Based on the data above, we note that both the price to book (“ P/B ”) multiple and price to sales (“ P/S ”) multiple implied by the Consideration (at 2.48 times and 0.18 times respectively) are within the P/B and P/S multiple ranges at which the Precedent Transactions were announced.

Average	1.81	37.0%	0.27	(33.3)%
Low	0.54	359.3%	0.16	12.5%

In considering the reasonableness of the Consideration, we have made reference to the valuation multiples at which the Precedent Transactions were announced. We note from the above table that the valuation multiples implied by the Consideration are within the range of the valuation multiples of the Precedent Transactions. The P/S multiple implied by the Consideration of 0.18 times is approximately 33.3% below the average P/S multiple of the Precedent Transactions. Nevertheless, we observe that the P/B multiple of 2.48 times implied by the Consideration is approximately 37.0% higher than the average P/B multiple of the Precedent Transactions.

We also note that save for TCL & Alcatel Mobile Phones Limited and Kyocera Zhenhua Company, all the target companies of the Precedent Transactions recorded a profit for their financial year based on their respective latest publicly available audited financial statements as at the announcement date of each of the Precedent Transaction. This is in contrast to Lenovo Mobile which reported an unaudited net loss after taxation for the financial year ended 31 December 2007. Accordingly, the valuation multiples implied by the Consideration may be expected to be lower than the average of the Precedent Transactions. In forming our opinion, we have considered the financial results of the target companies of the Precedent Transactions together with all other factors stated in this letter as a whole.

5. Comparable companies analysis

When performing analysis on the valuation multiples implied by the Consideration, we have also selected companies which are, in our view, relatively comparable to Lenovo Mobile (“ Reference Companies ”). Our selection criteria include the following:

(a) Listed on the Stock Exchange;
(b) Market capitalisation of less than HK$5 billion; and
(c) More than 50% of revenue derived from the manufacturing of cordless phone end products.

LETTER FROM DBS ASIA

Notes:

P/B multiple compares each of the Reference Company’s market capitalization on the Latest Practicable Date with its net asset value as extracted from its latest published financial statements as at the Latest Practicable Date.
P/S multiple compares each of the Reference Company’s market capitalization on the Latest Practicable Date with its consolidated sales revenue as extracted from its latest published audited full year financial statements as at the Latest Practicable Date.
Suncorp Technologies Limited turned around from a net liability position of HK$39.3 million as at 31 December 2006 to a net asset position of HK$5.5 million as at 30 June 2007 as a result of its rights issue announced on 26 June 2007, thereby distorting its trading P/B multiple. Given its unique circumstance, we have excluded Suncorp Technologies Limited from the Reference Companies’ trading P/B multiple range.
P/B multiple implied by the Consideration compares the Consideration with Lenovo Mobile’s net asset value as extracted from its unaudited financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2007.
P/S multiple implied by the Consideration compares the Consideration with Lenovo Mobile’s sales revenue as extracted from its unaudited financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2007.
Where the original figures were expressed in a currency other than HK$, exchange rate as at the Latest Practicable Date was applied to translate the original figures to HK$ in this table.

The table below sets out the premium/(discount) of Lenovo Mobile’s valuation as implied by the Consideration over/to the Reference Companies’ trading valuation.

Low	0.98	153.1%	0.08	125.0%

In considering the reasonableness of the Consideration, we have made reference to the trading valuation of the Reference Companies. We note that the ranges of the P/B and P/S multiples of the Reference Companies are very wide, ranging from 0.98 times to 5.68 times, and from 0.08 times to 0.74 times, respectively. This might be due to specific circumstances facing each of the Reference Companies. Given the wide range, the Reference Companies’ trading valuation multiples may not be useful as a direct reference to the terms of the Disposal.

– 30 –

LETTER FROM DBS ASIA

Nonetheless, in absolute terms, the P/B multiple of 2.48 times implied by the Consideration under the Disposal does reflect the Consideration’s premium over Lenovo Mobile’s net asset value, which is often perceived as an asset’s minimum sale price. Given the increasing competition in the PRC mobile handset market and Lenovo Mobile’s deteriorating financial performance, we consider that the potential buyers for Lenovo Mobile have a relatively stronger bargaining position, and that the Consideration does reflect the other terms of the Disposal.

6. Return on investment in Lenovo Mobile

Lenovo Mobile was established as a joint venture between the Company and Xiamen Overseas Chinese Electronics Company Limited (“ Xiamen Overseas ”) in 2002. Lenovo Manufacturing and Lenovo Beijing together contributed RMB151,500,000, representing 80.8% of the registered capital of Lenovo Mobile.

In December 2005, on the back of improving performance of the mobile handset business, Lenovo Beijing acquired the remaining 19.2% equity interest in Lenovo Mobile from Xiamen Overseas at a cash consideration of RMB72 million under a share transfer agreement, making the Company the sole owner of Lenovo Mobile. Based on the announcement of Xiamen Overseas dated 20 December 2005, Lenovo Mobile’s net asset value as at 30 November 2005 was approximately RMB283,270,000. This represented an implied acquisition P/B of approximately 1.32 times. The Consideration of US$100,000,000 of the Disposal represents an implied P/B of 2.48 times, which is approximately 87.9% higher than the Company’s acquisition P/B of 1.32 times for the 19.2% equity interest in Lenovo Mobile back in December 2005.

The total investment cost in Lenovo Mobile as at the Latest Practicable Date was RMB223,500,000. Since the inception of the investment in Lenovo Mobile, the Company has received dividend totaling approximately RMB574,429,000. The sum of the Consideration of US$100,000,000 and the dividend received to date of approximately RMB574,429,000 represents a return on the investment in Lenovo Mobile of approximately RMB1,293,329,000[(1)] or 478.7% of the investment cost.

OPINION

Having considered the above factors and reasons, we are of the opinion that the terms of the Disposal are fair and reasonable, and from this perspective, the Disposal is in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, we advise the Independent Board Committee to recommend the Independent Shareholders to vote in favour of the Resolution.

Yours faithfully, For and on behalf of

DBS ASIA CAPITAL LIMITED Kelvin S.K. Lau Managing Director
