09:49 CNAC<01110> - Announcement (1) The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited takes no responsibility for the contents of this announcement, makes no representation as to its accuracy or completeness and expressly disclaims any liability whatsoever for any loss howsoever arising from or in reliance upon the whole or any part of the contents of this announcement. CHINA NATIONAL AVIATION COMPANT LIMITED (incorporated in Hong Kong with limited liability) (Stock Code: 1110) CONTINUING CONNECTED TRANSACTION: LEASING OF OFFICE PREMISES AND CAR PARKS On 26 July, 2004, Air Macau entered into the Tenancy Agreement with the Landlords for the leasing by Air Macau from Landlords of the Premises for use by Air Macau to carry out its commercial activities and to support the carrying out of such activities. The Tenancy Agreement was negotiated on an arm's length basis between the parties and their terms are determined on an arm's length basis. The Directors (including independent non-executive Directors) considered that the Tenancy Agreement has been entered into on normal commercial terms and are fair and reasonable so far as the Company and its shareholders are concerned. Each of the Landlords is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of CNAH. Air China, a non-wholly owned subsidiary of CNAH, is the controlling shareholder of the Company. Each of the Landlords is therefore an associate of Air China and is a connected person under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. The Tenancy Agreement is regarded as a continuing connected transaction for the Company under the Listing Rules and is subject to reporting and announcement requirements. The Company's failure to issue a public announcement concerning the continuing connected transaction has constituted a breach of Rule 14A.34 of the Listing Rules. The Stock Exchange has indicated to the Company that it reserves the rights to take appropriate action against the Company and the Directors in respect of such breach of the Listing Rules.
