There was no appropriation to the discretionary surplus reserve fund. According to the applicable laws and the articles of association of the Company, dividends for distribution by the Company will be based on the lower of the amounts determined in accordance with the above two accounting standards. The Company’s proposed dividend distribution plan for 2009 is: using the total share capital of the Company as the base number, the Company will distribute a cash dividend of RMB0.21 (inclusive of tax) per ordinary share to all the shareholders and it is anticipated that the cash dividend payable will amount to RMB2,531,630,522.40.
