If the aggregate number of shares to be issued out of the issue of new A Shares is less than 1,200 million shares, then the number of H Shares to be issued shall be calculated as follows: number of New H Shares = 400 million shares X Aggregate number of actual shares to be issued out of the issue of new A Shares / 1,200 million shares, provided that in any event the issue size shall not exceed the number as approved by the CSRC.

 

2.       The Company intends to make adjustments to the Issuance, including to the number of New H Shares and the Price per Share, due to change of the market conditions, and Hua Neng HK agrees to accept such adjustments.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties agree as follows in respect of the adjustments to the number of New H Shares and the Price per Share:

 

 

1.

Adjustment to the number of New H Shares

 

The Company agreed to issue to Hua Neng HK and Hua Neng HK agreed to subscribe for 500 million New H Shares of the Company while in any event the issue size shall not exceed the number as approved by the CSRC. The New H Shares are not subject to any Encumbrance.

 

If the aggregate number of shares to be issued out of the issue of new A Shares is less than 1,500 million shares, then the number of New H Shares to be issued to Hua Neng HK shall be adjusted as follows: number of New H Shares = 500 million shares X the aggregate number of actual shares to be issued out of the issue of new A Shares / 1,500 million shares, provided that in any event the issue size shall not exceed the number as approved by the CSRC.

 

2.

Adjustment to the Price per Share

 

The Price Determination Date for the new H Shares shall be adjusted to the date of publication of the announcement regarding the resolutions of the Board of the Company on which the proposal on the adjustments to the issue of new shares was considered and approved (i.e. 27 July 2010).

 

The Price per Share shall be based on the average trading price per H share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the twenty trading days immediately prior to the Price Determination Date (average trading price of the Company’s H shares for the twenty trading days immediately prior to the Price Determination Date = Aggregate amount of the Company's H Shares traded on the Stock Exchange for the twenty trading days immediately prior to the Price Determination Date / Aggregate number of the Company's H Shares traded on the Stock Exchange for the twenty trading days immediately prior to the Price Determination Date), with a share price premium of 3%. If the Company carries out any distribution of equity interest, conversion of shares from reserve fund or placing having the effect of ex-rights, ex-dividend, etc. prior to the Completion Date, the Price per Share and the number of New H Shares to be issued shall be adjusted correspondingly.

 

The Parties agree that upon final determination of the Price per Share and the number of New H Shares to be subscribed for by Hua Neng HK, a letter confirming thereof will be signed by the respective authorized representatives of the Parties on the Closing Date, which letter shall be annexed hereto, form an integral part of and have the same legal effect of this Agreement.
