The Board is pleased to announce that the Company has received approval of the Plan from Beijing SASAC and the Board has resolved to propose the adoption of the Plan for approval by the Shareholders at the GM pursuant to the requirement under Notice of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council and the Ministry of Finance of the People's Republic of China on Issuing the Trial Measures for Implementing the Equity Incentive System by the State-Controlled Listed Companies (Overseas) (Guo Zi Fa Fen Pei [2006] No. 8) and other applicable laws and regulations. The Plan does not constitute a share option scheme pursuant to Chapter 17 of the Listing Rules and is a discretionary plan of the Company.

A summary of the principal terms of the Plan is set out below. Further details of the terms of the Plan will be set out in a circular to be despatched to the Shareholders in due course.

Purposes

The purposes of the Plan are to align the interests of employees, Company and the Shareholders for the Company's long-term development, to attract, motivate and retain talents, to establish and improve the long-term incentive mechanism of the Company, with a view to achieving the objectives of further enhancing Shareholders' value.

Plan Limit

The total number of Shares which may be awarded upon the exercise of Awards granted under the Plan shall be no more than 173,139,000 Shares, representing approximately 2.37% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of this announcement ("Plan Limit").

The maximum number of Shares awarded and to be awarded upon the exercise of Awards (including exercised or unexercised) granted to any individual Selected Employee under the Plan shall be no more than 1% of the total number of issued Shares.
