Increase of the reserve for general risks is mainly due to that the reserve for general risks was provided from the net profit of the report period. 3. The reason for the increased surplus reserves: the net profit transferred to surplus reserves in the reporting period. 4. The reason for decreased statutory welfare reserve: According to the Circular of the Ministry of Finance on Issues concerning Enterprise Financial Treatment upon Implementation of the Company (CAI QI [2006] No. 67, ended December 31, 2005, the balance of the welfare reserve was transferred to the statutory surplus reserve. 5.

5. Foreign Currency Translation: The Company adopts the system of independent account for transactions in foreign currencies. All balance sheet items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into RMB at the exchange rate published by the People's Bank of China or the rate accepted by the central government at the end of the year. Except retained profit item, shareholders equity items are translated into RMB at the exchange rate published by the People's Bank of China or the rate accepted by the central government at the transaction date.

8.Financial assets The Company classified its financial assets into four categories: financial assets that are measured at fair value and changes in the value are charged to current gain and loss; held to maturity financial assets; loans and receivables; and available for sale financial assets.

-59- (1) Financial assets that are measured at fair value and changes in the value are charged to current gain and loss. Such financial assets include: transactional financial assets and the financial assets designated to be measured based on the fair value and stated in the gain and loss of the very period based on the fair value. The financial assets that is obtained mainly for the purpose of sales in short term shall be classified as this type of financial assets; in addition, when the financial asset is obtained, the management may instruct it to be classified to such financial asset. Derivative financial products are also classified as the financial assets measured based on the fair value and the change of their fair value is charged to the current gain and loss. (2) Held to maturity investments Held to maturity investments refer to non-derivative financial assets which are fixed up to the maturity, fixed in recovery amount or can be determined while the Company has definite intention and capability to hold mature non-derivative financial assets. In case the Company sells partial due investment held by it or reclassifies the amount of financial assets available for sale, when the total amount of such investment before sale or reclassification is big, the remaining part of such investment is reclassified as the financial asset available for sale; while in the fiscal year or within the next two complete fiscal years, the financial asset must not be reclassified into the held to maturity investments. (3) Loans and receivables Loans and account receivable refer to non-derivative financial assets in the active market without quotation, with the recoverable amount fixed or which can be determined. (4) Financial Assets Available for Sale Financial assets available for sale refer to non-derivative financial assets available for sale when they are initially recognized as well as the financial assets except such financial assets as loan, account receivable, held to the maturity investment, measured based on the fair value and the change of the fair value is charged to the current gain and loss. Financial assets as initially recognized are measured according to the fair value. For the financial assets which are measured based on the fair value and whose change is charged to the current gain and loss, the relevant transaction fee is directly charged to the current gain and loss; for other types of financial assets, the relevant transaction fee is charged to the amount as initially determined. The financial assets are measured based on the fair value and their changes are charged to the current gain and loss and the financial assets available for sale are measured based on fair value afterwards; the held to the maturity investment and loans and accounts receivable are measured afterwards by means of actual interest rate method. The gain or loss formed due to change in fair value of transactional financial assets is directly charged to the current gain and loss; the gain or loss formed from change of the fair value of the financial assets available for sale is determined in the owner's equity.

9. Impairment of Financial Assets (1) Assets measured with the amortized cost The Company conducts inspection over the book value of the financial assets other than the financial assets measured based on fair value and whose change is charged to the current gain and loss on the balance sheet day; and provides reserve when objective evidence shows that such financial assets experiences impairment. The Company first of all makes separate assessment of financial assets in big amount to ensure if there is any objective evidence showing the existence of impairment; afterwards, makes separate of overall assessment of financial assets of smaller amount to ensure if there is any objective evidence showing the existence of impairment. In case there is no objective evidence showing there exists any impairment in financial assets, the Company shall classify them to the group of financial assets with the similar credit risk characteristics and make overall impairment assessment regardless the size of such financial assets.

-60- 2006 ^kkr^i=obmloq

(2) Assets Measured Based on Fair Value When the financial assets available for sale experiences impairment, even if such financial assets have not yet been eventually confirmed, the accumulated loss which is directly charged in the owner's equity and formed due to falling of fair value should be allowed to transfer out and charged to the current gain and loss. Such transferred out accumulated loss is the balance of the cost of the financial assets available for sale initially obtained less the principal already recovered and the amount already amortized, present fair value and the loss from impairment already charged to the gain and loss. Loss from impairment incurred to the investment of the equity instruments available for sale must not be transferred out through gain and loss. However, the equity instrument investment active in the market but without quotation whose fair value cannot be reliably measured or the loss from impairment of derivative assets which is linked with such equity instrument and settled through delivery of such equity instrument must not be carried back.

10. Financial liabilities The financial liabilities held by the Company comprise of financial liabilities that are measured at fair value and changes in the value are charged into current gain and loss, deposits, issued bonds and other liabilities. The financial liabilities the Company measures based on the fair value and charges to the current gain and loss include the financial liabilities held for transaction purpose and the financial liabilities measured based on the fair value designated by the management at the time of initial recognition and whose change is charged to the current gain and loss. The Company conducts follow-up measurement of the financial liabilities by using the actual interest rate method based on the amortized cost. However, the following cases are the exception: (1) The financial liabilities measured based on the fair value and whose change is charged to the current gain and loss are measured according to the fair value but the transaction expenses possibly incurred in settlement of the future financial liabilities are not deducted. (2) The derivative financial liabilities linked with the equity instruments which are active in the market but without quotation and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured and settled by delivering that equity instrument are measured according to the cost.

11. Fair Value For financial instruments active in the market, the quotation active in the market is taken as the fair value. That quotation refers to the price easy to be obtained from the exchange, broker, industrial association, pricing service institution, etc. which represents the price of the market transaction occurred in the fair transaction. For the financial instrument inactive in the market, the fair value is determined by means of valuation techniques. Such valuation techniques include such proper methods as cash flow discounting method, earning rate curve method or option pricing model, etc.

12. Commissions The Company takes charge of commissions, including designated loan and commissioned investment. Designated loans are that funded by entrusting parties.

Commissioned investment is that the entrusting parties provide fund. The Company makes own investment decision within the designated range during the commission and makes investment for the entrusting parties. The entrusting parties assume all the risks, gain and loss and responsibilities involved in the commission and the Company only receives arrangement fees. The difference between designated loans and the commissioned investment is reported in net on the balance sheet.

13. Repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements Securities under repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements are stated at cost.

All the other follow-up expenses are recognized as the current expenses. (3) The Company provides depreciation based on composite life method. The depreciation rates determined based on classifica- tion of fixed assets, predicted service life and predicted net residue rate (the predicted net residue rate is 3%) without considering the reserve for impairment of the fixed assets are as follows:

Categories of fixed assets Estimated useful life Annual depreciation rate Properties and buildings 5-40 years 19.40%-2.43% Office equipment 3-12 years 32.33%-8.08% Motor vehicles 5-10 years 19.40%-9.70% where, for the fixed asset whose reserve for impairment has been already provided, the depreciation rate is re-determined based on the book value of the fixed asset and the service life available for use. In case the fixed asset whose reserve for impairment has been already provided is recovered again, the depreciation rate and depreciation amount are re-determined based on the book value of the fixed asset upon recovery and the service life available for use. (4) The Company inspects fixed assets item by item at the end of the period and provides reserve of impairment of the fixed assets in case the recoverable amount is lower than the book value due to out-of-date technology, damage, long term idleness, etc. At the time of calculation and provision, the reserve for impairment of fixed asset is determined based on the difference between the recoverable amount of fixed assets lower than the book value of the individual fixed assets. (5) For the fixed asset whose reserve for impairment has been provided, in case there is evidence showing that change has taken place in various factors on which reserve for impairment was provided and which has caused the recoverable amount of the fixed asset is greater than its book value, the reserve for impairment previously provided should be carried back. (6) According to the "Questions and Answers (VI)" of the Ministry of Finance, while carrying back the reserve for impairment of the fixed asset, the book value of the carried back fixed assets should not exceed the net book value of the fixed assts worked out without consideration of the reserve for impairment.

15 Construction in progress (1) Construction in progress is stated at cost. When construction in progress has reached the application status, all the expenses incurred in the procedures that the construction in progress is completed and reaches the predicted application status are regarded as the value for charging the fixed assets. (2) The carrying amount of construction in progress is individually reviewed at each balance sheet date. When a construction in progress has been suspended for a long period and is not expected to resume construction within 3 years, a provision for impairment will be made against the carrying values of the construction in progress in the income statement of the year. At the time of calculation and provision, the reserve for impairment of construction in progress is determined based on the difference between the recoverable amount of construction in progress lower than the book value of the individual construction in progress.

In case financial derivative instruments are active in the market, the fair value is determined based on the market quotation, including the recent market transaction; otherwise, the fair value is determined based on the fair value, including the cash discount method or other proper method, such as futures pricing model.

23. Income tax (1) The Company adopts the "Tax Effect Accounting Method". (2) The timing difference between the carrying value of assets and liabilities on the taxation basis and their book values is subject to the calculation of deferred tax at the prevailing tax rate. When there is sufficient evidence to prove that there is enough taxable income to offset against such timing difference, deferred tax is then recognized. Provision for deferred tax is recognized at each year end if the deferred tax cannot be recovered. (3) The Company adopts "Tax Effect Accounting Method". Major items that may cause timing difference include: provision for credit losses, provision for other asset impairment and amortization of preoperating expenses. Deferred tax asset is recognized on individual basis after taking into account of the above timing difference and the recoveries.

B. Amortization of pre-operating expenses In accordance with Accounting System for Business Enterprises, pre-operating expenses are charged to the income statement once the business unit commences its operation. However, according to the prevailing tax rules, the pre-operating expenses are amortized over a period of 5 years. The income tax expense of the current year is adjusted for the deferred tax asset recognized in the abovementioned timing difference. (6) If certain provisions for credit losses, provisions for asset impairment and amortization of preoperating expenses cannot bring future tax benefit to the Company, the management makes provision for deferred tax assets and the income tax of the current year is adjusted. (7) Based on the abovementioned principles, the Company changes the difference between the deferred tax recognized at the balance sheet date and that of the previous one to the income statement. (8) Except the equity in connection with the equity item and directly recognized, the income tax expenses are all recognized in the profit statement.

2.2 Significant Judgments and Estimates

(a) Judgments During executing the Company's accounting policies, besides estimates, the management performed the following judgments that might exert significant influence to the financial statement.

Category of investment The Company's management needs employ many estimates to define category of investment. Different category of investment may affect accounting audit and financial status of the Company. After the reporting period, in case of founding wrong estimate in category of investment that might affect overall investment, the Company may re-classify the category.

(b) Uncertain Estimates The following main assumes and other main uncertain estimates employed by the Company's management at end of year could cause significant risk that the Company performs major adjustment to its assets and liabilities items in the next fiscal year.

Credit loss The Company regularly judges whether it's evidenced that certain loan is in loss. If so, the Company will estimate the amount of loss. The amount of loss is the difference between carrying value and present value of expected future cash flow. During estimating loss, the Company needs to employ many judgments to define whether there have objective evidence showing the happening of loss and needs to make significant estimates to present value of future cash flow.

Income tax The Company needs to make judgment to the taxation of some future transactions to define provision for income tax. In accordance with tax law and regulation of the People's Republic of China, the Company prudently judges the influence of income tax on transaction and accordingly makes provisions for income tax. Deferred tax assets can only be defined whether profit to be taxed could be used for offset certain deferred tax asset in the future. For this, it's required to make significant judgment to the taxation of certain transaction and make significant estimate that whether profit to be taxed is enough for offsetting deferred tax assets in the future.

Fair value of financial instruments In case a financial instrument lacks active market, the Company uses the evaluation method to determine the fair value. The evaluation method includes the transaction price as determined when fair transaction is carried out between the economic subjects with complete information in the market and desire for transaction as reference. It is also possible to refer to, if it can be obtained, the present fair value of another type of similar financial instrument in the market, or using the cash flow discount analysis and futures pricing model. The pricing method is in maximum degree to use the market information. However, if market information is impossible to be obtained, the management shall make estimate of such factors as credit risks (of the Company and the competitors), fluctuation and the relevance, etc. About the consumption as based on these factors, the change, if any, shall affect the fair value of the financial instruments.

2.3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

1)Foreign currency transactions The Company's account books and financial statements are presented in RMB. All foreign currency transactions are presented in RMB by market rate at the transaction happening date. At the balance sheet date, the balance sheet and income statement amounts denominated in foreign currencies are translated into RMB at the year end rate, respectively. Foreign currency translation differences are dealt with in the income statement.

-101- Non-currency items in foreign currency measured at historical cost are booked after being translated into RMB according to exchange rate at the initial transaction date. Non-currency items in foreign currency measured at fair value are booked after being translated into RMB according to exchange rate at the fair value recognition date.

(b) Financial assets The Company classified its financial assets into four categories: financial assets that are measured at fair value and changes in the value are charged to current gain and loss; held to maturity financial assets; loans and receivables; and available for sale financial assets. Upon the initial recognition, all financial assets shall be measured as their fair value plus, in the case of financial asset that is not measured at fair value and changes in the value are not charged into current gain and loss, transaction cost that are directly attributable to the acquisition.

1)Financial assets that are measured at fair value and changes in the value are charged to current gain and loss. Financial assets that are measured at fair value and changes in the value are charged to current gain and loss comprise of financial asset classified as held for trading or by the initial recognition defined by the Company's management as financial assets that are measured at fair value and changes in the value are charged to current gain and loss. The Company classified those financial assets that are to be sold within short term and derivative financial instruments excluding those being defined as effective derivative instrument as financial assets held for trading. Financial assets held not for trading purpose, if they satisfy the following conditions and are designated by the management, can all be classified as the financial assets measured based on the fair value while their change can be charged to the current gain and loss at the time of initial recognition:  when the inconsistence in measurement and recognition method brought about from different basis in measurement of financial assets or Financial bondsor recognition of income and loss has been eliminated or significantly lowered;  For a group of financial assets or financial liabilities, or the sum of the two which is measured and managed based on the fair value and complies with the recorded risk management or investment strategy, and the key executives are accessible to the relevant information of that group of financial instruments based on the fair value; or  financial assets may contain embedded derivative, unless the embedded derivative produces no significant change to the cash flow of financial instruments or the relevant inserted derivative instruments may not significantly recorded respectively with the financial instruments. Such financial assets are measured based on the fair value during the follow-up measurement. All realized as well as unrealized income is charged to the current gain and loss.

2) Held to maturity investments Held to maturity investments refer to the non-derivative financial assets that the Company's management has specific intention and is capable of holding to maturity and have fixed or confirmable payment amount and fixed term. The held to maturity investment is measured at amortized cost applying effective interest method and reduced by provisions for loss. A gain or loss arising shall be recognized in profit or loss when the investment is derecognized, impaired and during amortization process. If the Company, during the current fiscal year or two fiscal years, sold or re-class held to maturity investments exceeding non- significant amount prior to the maturity date, the rest held to maturity investments will be reclassified to available-for-sale financial assets. In case due to the change in desire or ability, or in a rare case, due to that fair value can no longer be reliably measured, or due to that "the previous two fiscal years" has gone, it turns more proper to measure financial assets or Financial bondsaccording to the cost or cost after amortization instead of the fair value, it is necessary to take book amount of the financial assets or Financial bondsmeasured based on the fair value on that day as its new cost or new cost after amortization. The profit or loss before that asset which is directly charged to the interest according to the regulations should be calculated according to the following provisions:

-102- 2006 ^kkr^i=obmloq

(1) For the financial assets with fixed due date, the aforesaid gain or loss should be charged to the gain and loss within the remaining duration of that asset by using the actual interest rate method. The difference between the new cost after amortization and the due amount should be amortized also by using the actual interest rate method within the remaining duration similar to amortization of the discount and premium. In case the financial asset experienced impairment afterwards, all the profit or gain directly charged to the interest should be charged to the gain and loss of the very period. (2) For the financial assets without fixed due date, the aforesaid profit or loss should be retained in the interest and should not be charged to the gain and loss until the financial asset is sold or disposed. In case the financial asset experienced impairment afterwards, all the profit or gain already directly charged to the interest should be charged to the gain and loss of the very period.

3) Loans and receivables Loans and receivables refer to non-derivative financial asset that have fixed or confirmable payment amount and have less active market and financial asset that the Company's management has no intention to sell immediately or within short term. The value of loans and receivables are determined by the amortized cost applying effective interest method and deducted by provisions for loss. When the account receivable is terminated for recognition, the impairment or the profit or loss incurred in the amortization should be charged to the gain and loss of the very period.

4) Available-for-sale financial assets Available-for-sale financial assets refer to available-for-sale non-derivative financial assets and other financial assets not classified as loans and receivables, held to maturity investments or financial assets that are measured at fair value and changes in the value are charged to current gain and loss. During the subsequent measurement, such financial assets are measured at fair value. The discount and premium is amortized by applying effective interest method and is recognized as interest income. Prior to available-for-sale financial assets are derecognised or impaired, the unrealised gain on change their fair value is solely presented in equity. Upon the available-for-sale financial assets are derecognised or impaired, accumulated changes in their fair value presented in the equity are charged into current net gain and loss.

(c) Impairment of Financial Assets The Company assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any objective evidence that one or more financial assets are impaired after the initial recognition of the assets and such impairment could cause measurable loss in expected cash flow of the financial asset or the asset group. 1) Financial asset measured at amortized cost When there exists any objective evidence that loan and receivables or held to maturity investments measured at amortized cost are impaired, the amount of loss is recognised at the difference between carrying value of the asset and discounted expected cash flow by applying initially effective interest rate of the assets. The carrying value of asset is reduced to the expected recoverable amount through provision for loss and the amount of loss shall be charged into current gain and loss. The Company assesses financial asset with high unit price to determine whether there exists any objective evidence that any impairment is happened. Also, the Company assesses asset with low price from one or combined aspects to determine whether there exists any objective evidence that any impairment is happened. he Company classes the assets according to credit risk features and assesses the assets from combined aspects to determine whether there exists any objective evidence that any impairment is happened. Even there exists objective evidence that a single financial asset is not impaired, the asset and those with same credit risk features constitute a combination to be assessed. Any financial assets that is solely assessed and loss has been or continues to be recognized is beyond the scope of combined assess. For the financial assets whose impairment is measured based on the combination, the estimate of the future cash flow is determined still with reference to historical loss experience of the financial asset similar to the credit risk characteristics of that asset combination. The Company shall make amendment of the historical loss experience as the reference based on the present conditions, including addition of the factors which exist in the present period but shall not affect the reference time of the historical loss experience as well as the factors which only affect the reference time of the historical loss experience but are not applicable now. The Company regularly review and adjust the method and assumption used to predict the future cash flow.

-103- During the subsequent measurement, if the amount of loan loss decreases, and there exists any objective relation between the decrease and matter happened after withdrawing provision for loss, the reversal amount of the asset shall be directly deducted by provisions for loan loss and charged into current gain and loss. Any subsequent impairment released shall be charged into current gain and loss. The recognition of released amount shall ensure carrying value of the asset on the releasing date doesn't exceed the amortised cost. When the loan is not recoverable, it shall be written-off according to the withdrawn provision for loan loss deducted by amount of loss determined. If the written-off loan is recovered, it shall be charged into current gain and loss for deducting the provision for loan loss to be withdrawn in the current period.

2) Financial expenses measured at cost If there exists any evidence that shows equity financial instrument can_t be measured fair value due to no market price, the provision for loss the difference between its book balance and present value of expected cash flow of the asset in the future. The loss from impairment of such assets must not be released. 3 Available-for-sale financial assets If available-for-sale financial assets are impaired, no matter the assets are not derecognised, any accumulated gain and loss directly recognised in equity will be transferred out from equity and be recognised in income statement. The amount of accumulated gain and loss transferred out from equity and recognized in income statement is equal to deducting all provision for loss of the asset previously recognized in the income statement from the difference between acquisition cost (deducted by any capital repayment and amortisation) and current fair value. With respect to available-for-sale equity financial instrument, its loss recognised in gain and loss can't be released through income statement. But for available-for-sale debt financial instrument, if its value increases in the subsequent measurement, and such value increase may be objectively attributed to the matter happened after the recognition of impairment of the asset, the loss may be released through income statement.

When a financial liability has been replaced by an accommodator with another liability while the terms and conditions of the new financial liability are significantly different, or the clauses on the current liabilities have been amended greatly, the replaced or amended matters shall be finally recognized as the original financial liability and treated as initial recognition of a new financial liability. The margin of the book value between the two should be charged to the current gain and loss.

At end of the period, the Company performed check to fixed assets one-by-one. The difference of recoverable amount and carrying value is recognized as provision for fixed asset impairment and charged into current gain and loss. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method. The depreciation is determined based on the cost of the asset, the estimated useful lives and the estimated residual value (at 3% on the cost). The depreciation years of fixed assets and the depreciation rate are listed as follows:

Estimated useful life Depreciation rate Properties and buildings 5 - 40 years 2.4%-19.4% Leasehold improvements 5 -10 years 9.7%-19.4% Office equipment and computer 3 -12 years 8.1%-32.3% Motor vehicles 5 -10 years 9.7%-19.4%

-106- 2006 ^kkr^i=obmloq

(l) Impairment of assets The Company, at each balance sheet date, assess whether there exists any objective evidence that asset impairment is happened. If such evidence exists or there has need for performing annual impairment examination, the Company will estimate the recoverable amount of each asset. The recoverable amount is the higher of the asset's fair value deducted by disposal fee and the asset's value in use. The recoverable amount is determined against one asset, unless cash flows generated by the asset is basically dependent on the cash flows generated by other asset or asset group. If the carrying value of certain asset is more than its recoverable amount, it's deemed that the asset is impaired and its carrying value is adjusted to the recoverable value. In assessing asset's value in use, the present value of future cash flow is calculated according to discounting rate before tax reflecting the currency time value of current market and actual risk of the asset. Loss happened in continuous operation is charged into current gain and loss and fee items of impaired assets with same purpose.

(m) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise of cash on hand, due from the Central Banks, due from banks, placement with banks and other financial institutions both maturing in less than three months, short term highly liquid bond investments which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash, subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and have a short maturity term of generally within three months when acquired.

The acquisition and sale in regular method refers to the delivery of financial assets is done on the date according to market rule or practice.

(p) Revenue recognition Revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and when the revenue can be measured reliably, on the following bases: 1) Interest income is recognised by applying effective interest method upon the generation, which the discounted expected future cash inflow generated within financial instrument's expected duration is recognised in financial statement. When single financial asset or similar asset group is impaired, the interest income is recognised at discounting rate to measure loss. 2) Lease income from the investment property is recognized on accrual basis; 3) Fee and commission income is recognised when the service is provided and the proceeds can be reasonably estimated;

(q) Income tax The income tax includes the current tax and deferred tax. The income tax is directly charged to the gain and loss. However, if the items in connection with the income tax is directly charged to the equity; its corresponding income tax should be directly charged to the equity instead of gain and loss. The current income tax assets and liabilities formed in the current and previous periods should be measured based on the amount rebated from or payable to the tax authority. Deferred tax is calculated by liability method on all temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying values for financial reporting purposes. Currently enacted tax rates are used to determine deferred tax.

-107- Various taxable temporary discrepancies should all be based to recognize the deferred income tax liability unless the deferred income tax liability experiences one of the following cases:  Initial recognition of goodwill or initial recognition of assets or liabilities in process of transaction with the following characteristics: it is not the enterprise consolidation, and transaction when it occurs will neither influence the accounting profit nor taxable profit; For all the taxable temporary discrepancy in connection with the investment of the subsidiaries or associates, the time arrangement of the temporary discrepancy reversal can be controlled and such temporary discrepancy may not be reversed in the foreseeable future. For the taxable profit which can possibly be used to offset the temporary discrepancy, or the taxable profit which has not been used for offsetting loss and therefore be carried over to the following period and has not yet used for tax payment, the deferred income tax asset is recognized based on the taxable profit which can be used for offsetting the temporary discrepancy, or which has not be used for offset the loss and is carried over to the following period and has not used the tax unless the deferred income tax asset occurs from the following transaction: The temporary discrepancy available for offsetting does not occur due to enterprise consolidation while it neither influence the accounting profit nor taxable profit at the time of the transaction. For all the temporary discrepancies available for offsetting in connection with subsidiaries and associates, such temporary discrepancies may highly possible be reversed in the foreseeable future and it is highly possible to be able to taxable profit which can be used to offset the temporary discrepancies. As at each balance sheet date, it is necessary to recheck the book amount of the deferred asset income tax. In case it is no longer possible to obtain sufficient taxable profit so as to allow to use the interest from partial or all deferred income tax asset, the Company may reduce the book amount of that deferred income tax asset. As at each balance sheet date, the Company may make re-evaluation of the unrecognised deferred income tax asset. When the future taxable profit may be highly possible to recover the deferred income tax asset, the Company may recognize the previously unrecognized deferred income tax asset. The deferred income tax assets and liabilities based on the tax rate during the realization of the assets and liquidation of the liabilities as predicted with the tax rate (and tax law) already implemented or substantially implemented as at the balance sheet date as the base. Deferred income tax asset and deferred income tax liabilities cannot be offset unless there is statutory exercise power for offsetting the current income tax asset with the income tax liabilities, and in addition the deferred income tax belongs to the same principal tax payer and tax authority.

The loss risk of designated loan is undertaken by third party loaner.

(u) Financial guarantee contract The Company issues letter of credit and guarantee. When a party under the guarantee violates the initial clauses or the updated clauses of the debt based financial instrument, loan or other obligations, these financial guarantee contract provides compensation by a certain amount for the loss suffered by the creditors. The Company takes the relevant payment as received at the initial confirmation as the fair value to measure all the financial contract and charge it to the liabilities. This amount is recognized as the service charge and commission income in average during the valid term of the contract. Afterwards, the amount of liabilities as charged is recognized with the lower of margin of the fair value as recognized initially less the accumulated amortization and the expense possibly incurred at the time of financial liability corresponding to the guarantee contract. The added financial guarantee liability is recognized in the profit statement. The relevant fee as received is recognized in average as service charge and commission during the valid term of the contact by means of the straight line method.

(v) Reserve In case the Company should assume legal or constructive responsibilities for some case as occurred, while implementation of such responsibility is predicted to possibly lead to outflow of the economic benefit bearing resources, and the amount involved in such responsibility may be reliably estimated and reserve may be provided for accounting. When the Company predicts that some reserve may get compensation partially or wholly, such as compensation under the guarantee contract, that compensation shall be recognized as a separate asset. When the compensation amount is highly definite, the expense in connection with the reserve can only be recognized in the profit statement with the net value with deduction of any compensation. If the influence from the monetary time value is significant, the relevant reserve is estimated by the discount method at the pre-tax discount rate through the predicted future cash flow. Such discount rate should reflect the unique risk estimate of the liability. When the discount method is adopted, as the time passes by, the book value for reserve provision may increase and the increased part shall be recognized as the interest payment.

(w)Contingent Liabilities Contingent liabilities refer to the past transactions or the obligations necessary to be implemented arising from the event, their existence can only be determined by the existence of one or more future events which cannot be controlled by the Company. A contingent liability may also be a present obligation occurred from the past event. However, it cannot be reliably measured if it does not cause flow-out of the economic benefit or flow-out of the economic benefit impossible to be reliably measured. Therefore, such obligation is not recognized. The Company does not recognize contingent liabilities but only discloses them in the notes. In case change takes place in a contingent liability which may cause flow out of economic benefit, reserve will be provided for it.

The Company's loans and advances to customers are all domestic loans. Major off balance sheet items such as bank drafts acceptance are also related to domestic enterprises. However, due to the uniqueness of the development and economy of each region, the risk faced by the Company varies. For the geographical concentration of the loan portfolio and major off balance sheet items, please refer to note 30 for details. Loans and advances to customers classified based on the industries are as follows:

-127- 31c.Risks from exchange rate The Company mainly operates Renminbi based business; the designated transactions are mainly carried out in US dollars; there are fewer transactions in other currencies. The transactions in foreign currency are mainly the Company's fund operation exposure. The exchange rate between Renminbi and US dollars is specified by the People's Bank of China. There was small fluctuation before July, 2005. Afterwards, the controlled floating exchange rate system is excised causing the exchange price of Renminbi rising gradually. The relevant assets and liabilities based on currencies are stated as follows:

31d.Interest rate risk The Company's interest rate risk is originated from that the contracted due date interest-bearing assets and interest payment liabilities does not match that of the re-pricing date. Both interest-bearing assets and interest payment liabilities are valuated mainly in Renminbi. Renminbi based standard interest rate published by the People's Bank of China specifies the minimum interest rate of the Renminbi loans and maximum interest rate of Renminbi deposits. The Company adopts the following methods to control the interest rate risks: regularly monitor the overall factors which may influence the standard interest rate of the People's Bank of China, optimize the matching of the contracted due date of interest bearing assets and interest payment liabilities with their date of re-pricing and manage the standard interest rate of the People's Bank of China and the pricing difference between the nterest bearing assets and interest payment liabilities. According to applicable rules of the People's Republic of China, commercial bank shall define RMB loan and deposit interest rate within the floating of benchmark interest rate set by the People's Bank of China. As at August 19, 2006, the People's Bank of China adjusted to the central bank benchmark rates for deposit and lending. Currently effective and applicable PBOC Renminbi benchmark rates are as follows:

Loan and deposit interest benchmark rate of PBOC (% year) Commencing from Aug 19, 2006 From October 29, 2004 to August 18, 2006 Loans Within 6 months 5.58 5.22 Between 6 months and 1 year 6.12 5.58 Between 1 and 3 years 6.30 5.76 Between 3 and 5 years 6.48 5.85 Over 5 years 6.84 6.12 Housing mortgage loan:(1) Not more than 5 years 4.14 4.95 Over 5 years 4.59 5.31 Current deposits 0.72 0.72 Time deposits: 3 months 1.80 1.71 6 months 2.25 2.07 1 year 2.52 2.25 2 years 3.06 2.70 3 years 3.69 3.24 5 years 4.14 3.60

Effective from March 17, 2005, housing mortgage loan benchmark interest rate of PBOC is equal to that of loans with same term. Since the government further released the administration of interest rates and broadened the floating ranges of RMB loan and deposit rates. Allowable floating ranges of Renminbi loan and deposit rates at different term are as follows:

Loans Deposits Commencing from October 29, 2004 Commencing from October 29, 2004 Top limit No limit (urban and rural financial cooper Based on the benchmark interest rate of the People's atives for 230% of benchmark rate) Bank of China except agreement based deposits Bottom limit Not less than 90% of benchmark rate None

Commercial bank may, according to re-discounting rate of PBOC, independently define discounting rate on the basis of not exceeding loan benchmark rate of same term. The re-discounting rate of PBOC commencing from March 25, 2004 is 3.24%. Loan and deposit interest rates among banks are beyond the administration of the People's Bank of China, but shall be defined according to market rules or practices.

-129- 32.Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair value is the amount for which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm's length transaction. If there exists market with active transaction (such as authorized stock exchange), market price is the best present of the fair value of financial products. Since part of financial assets and liabilities held by or issued by the Company is lack of market price, thus, with respect to such financial instruments without quotation, their fair value is determined by applying following present value or other estimating methods. However, the value on the basis of such method in subject to the amount of future cash flows, timely assumption and discounting rate applied.

Financial assets The Company's financial assets mainly include cash, due from the central bank, due from and placement with banks and other financial institutions, loans and investment.

Due from the central bank, due from and placement with banks and other financial institutions Due from the central bank, due from and placement with banks and other financial institutions are mainly priced based on the market interest rate and are mainly due within a year. Therefore, their book value and their fair value are approximately the same.

Loans Loans are mainly priced based on the floating interest rates of interest rates specified by the People's Bank of China. Therefore, their book value and their fair value are approximately the same.

Investment Except that partial equity investments are priced based on the historical costs, available-for-sale investments and the bond investments measured based on the fair value and whose change is charged to the current gain and loss are measured based on the fair value in the balance sheet.

Financial liabilities The Financial bondsof the Company mainly include the interbank deposits and lendings, customers' deposit and the issued subordinated bonds.

Interbank deposits and lendings Interbank deposits and lendings are priced mainly based on the market interest rate and mainly due within a year. Therefore, their book value and their fair value are approximately the same.

Customers' Deposits Customers' deposits are mainly current deposits or short term deposits. Therefore, their book value and their fair value are approximately the same. For the held to maturity bonds and subordinated bonds whose fair value is not reflected or disclosed, their book value and fair value are presented in the following statements:

Book value Fair Value December 31, 2005 Subordinated bonds 4,250,000 4,936,375 December 31, 2006 Held to maturity bonds 65,349,872 66,270,588 Subordinated bonds 6,250,000 6,823,655

-130- 2006 ^kkr^i=obmloq

The methods and assumptions adopted in estimating the fair value are as follows: (a)For financial assets measured based on the fair value and whose change is charged to the current gain and loss and the available- for-sale financial assets, the fair value can be worked out with reference to the available market price. In case of no market price available, the fair value is estimated based on the pricing model or cash flow discount method. The book value of such assets is their fair value. (b)The fair value of the held to maturity investment may be worked out with reference to the available market price. In case of no market price available, the fair value is estimated based on the pricing model or cash flow discount method. (c)For current assets and the assets due within 12 months, the book value and fair value are supposed to be approximately the same. This assumption applies to the current assets, various other short term financial assets and financial liabilities. (d)The fair value of loans with fixed interest rate is estimated through comparison of the market interest rate at the time of loan granting with the market interest rate of the similar loans. The interest rate of most loans may be re-priced based on the change of the benchmark interest rate of the People's Bank of China. Therefore, the book value and the fair value are approximately the same. No consideration will be taken into consideration of the change of credit quality taken place in the loans in the loan portfolio in determining the general fair value. This is because the influence from the credit risk has been reflected by means of provision for loss of loans and deducted from the book value and fair value. (e) The interest rate applicable to the customers' deposits is determined based on specific products. It may be fluctuating or also possibly become fixed interest rate. The fair value of current deposit and savings account without designated expiry is the amount payable to the customers at any time. As most fixed deposits are all of short term, the fair value and the book value are approximately the same. The above assumptions and methods are to provide a unified basis for calculating the fair value of the Company's assets and liabilities. However, as other institutions may use different methods and assumptions, the fair value disclosed by various financial companies do not have to be completely comparative.
