    Share (as derived from the Daily Quotation Sheet of The Stock Exchange of 
    Hong Kong Limited (the "Stock Exchange"), subject to any adjustments (as  
    determined by the Issuer in accordance with the Conditions) to such

    issue, distribution or the like) for each of the 5 Valuation Dates prior  
    to expiry.                                                                
                                                                              
    The Warrants will be automatically exercised on the Expiry Date (without  
    any notice being given to the holders of the Warrants) if the Cash        
    Settlement Amount on the Expiry Date is greater than zero and the Issuer  
    will pay to the holders of the Warrants an amount less exercise expenses  
    calculated in accordance with the Conditions of the Warrants. If the Cash 
    Settlement Amount is less than or equal to zero, all Warrants shall be    
    deemed to expire on the Expiry Date without value.                        
                                                                              
    The Warrants constitute general unsecured contractual obligations of the  
    Issuer and of no other person.  If you purchase the Warrants you are      
    relying upon the creditworthiness of the Issuer.
