Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Jiuchongtian Company or the Company) was incorporated as a limited liability company with registered capital of RMB 10,000,000 yuan. The two stock holders of Jiuchongtian Company are ZHANG Xiaojun with capital contributions of RMB 9,000,000 yuan owning 90 percent of the Company stock and ZHANG Xiaoyu the remaining RMB 1,000,000 yuan owning 10 percent of the Company stock. On May 9, 2005, an Equity Transfer Agreement was made, concerning the transfer of the Company’s equity ownership as a result of the transfer of a real estate project, by and among ZHANG Xiaojun, ZHANG Xiaoyu, WU Xiaobin and HU Xiaojin. WU Xiaobin acquired 50 percent of equity ownership of the Company from ZHANG Xiaojun and 10 percent from ZHANG Xiaoyu, and HU Xiaojin acquired 40 percent equity ownership of the Company from ZHANG Xiaojun. And the equity alteration was registered with Shenzhou Branch of City B Administration for Industry and Commerce on May 23, 2005. WU Xiaobin, as the legal representative of the altered Company, owned 60 percent of the Company stock and HU Xiaojin the remaining 40 percent. On Mar. 27, 2006, MA Xiaoxi, a natural person as the authorized agent of ZHANG Xiaojun, submitted new equity transfer agreements and resolutions of the Stockholders’ Meetings to Shenzhou Branch of City B Administration for Industry and Commerce and applied for company alteration registration concerning: (1) The alteration of equity ownership: the stockholders were changed form WU Xiaobin owning 60 percent of the Company stock and HU Xiaojin the remaining 40 percent to ZHANG Xiaojun 90 percent and ZHANG Xiaoyu the remaining 10 percent; (2) The alteration of the legal representative: from WU Xiaobin to ZHANG Xiaojun; (3) The alteration of the business scope. After a formality review, Shenzhou Branch of City B Administration for Industry and Commerce considered the application documents and materials complete, and on the date of application, decided to approve the alteration application and issued a new business license. At the end of 2006, when consulting the registered basics of the Company, WU Xiaobin found that his personality of the Company stockholder and his 60 percent of the Company stock had been altered to be owned by ZHANG Xiaojun and ZHANG Xiaoyu, and the legal representative of the Company had also been altered to ZHANG Xiaojun. WU Xiaobin declared that he knew nothing of March 2006 equity transfer, and filed an administrative appeal to Shenzhou Branch of City B Administration for Industry and Commerce to apply for revocation of the alteration registration, claiming the equity transfer agreements were forged. However, WU Xiaobin received no reply from Shenzhou Branch of City B Administration for Industry and Commerce; therefore, he brought an administrative suit to People’s Court of Shenzhou District, City B against Shenzhou Branch of City B Administration for Industry and Commerce. COMPLAINT Plaintiff: WU Xiaobin,male, of Han nationality, born on Sep. 8, 1960, domiciled at No. 11 Lane 1, Yueliang Road, Caihong Town, City A, Zhejiang Province. Defendant: Shenzhou Branch of City B Administration for Industry and Commerce Domicile: No. 18 Taitang North Road, Shenzhou District, City B, Zhejiang Province. Legal Representative: JIA Min (Director) Claims: The erroneous administrative act by Defendant of industrial and commercial registration of City B Shenzhou Jiuchongtian Development Co. Ltd. should be revoked, Plaintiff should be restored to the Legal Representative of Jiuchongtian Company and a stockholder owning 60 percent of the Company stock, and a new business license should be issued. Facts and reasons: Plaintiff is the legal representative and a stockholder of City B Shenzhou Jiuchongtian Development Co. Ltd. and owns 60 percent of the Company stock. At the end of 2006, when consulting profiles of companies registered with Defendant, Plaintiff accidentally found that his status as the Company stockholder and his 60 percent of the Company stock had been altered to be owned by ZHANG Xiaojun and ZHANG Xiaoyu, and the legal representative had also been altered to ZHANG Xiaojun. In addition, to Plaintiff’s best knowledge, upon the alteration registration of the legal representative and stockholders, ZHANG Xiaojun and ZHANG Xiaoyu mortgaged the Land-Use Certificate for RMB 20,000,000 yuan and are now unable to repay the mortgage, leading to a loss of the Company amounting to no less than RMB 20,000,000 yuan. However, Plaintiff, upon becoming a stockholder of the Company on May 23, 2005, has neither transferred equity ownership of the abovementioned stock, nor in person or entrust any agent to go through any procedures with Defendant concerning equity transfer or alteration of the legal representative. Plaintiff alleges decidedly that the signatures of WU Xiaobin are forged in documents and materials (including equity transfer agreements and the resolutions of the Stockholders’ Meetings) filed with Defendant after Mar. 19, 2005. On that ground, Plaintiff has discussed the erroneous registration with Defendant and no settlement has been reached. Plaintiff alleges that, failing to follow relevant procedures, Defendant approved the alteration registration of Jiuchongtian Company concerning the legal representative, stockholders and equity ownership, without presence of Plaintiff, the Letter of Attorney duly authorized by Plaintiff, the identity certificate of Plaintiff, or signature of Plaintiff; therefore, Defendant should be held liable for its misconducts, even being beclouded. Following that, Defendant refused to correct its misconduct, neglecting the Plaintiff’s application for correction, which committed an administrative omission and violated relevant provisions of the law. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff brings a suit to the honored Court, and prays for judgment for Plaintiff so as to protect the legal interests of Plaintiff and have justice done. To People’s Court of Shenzhou District, City B By WU Xiaobin, Plaintiff Jun.15, 2007 Statement of Defense Defendant: Shenzhou Branch of City B Administration for Industry and Commerce Domicile: No. 18 Taiyang North Road, Shenzhou District, City B, Zhejiang Province.

Therefore, the administrative act to approve the alteration registration is conducted by following the legitimate procedure and applying proper laws and administrative regulations. 2, By the following reasons, Defendant denies the allegations contained in Plaintiff’s Complaint that Defendant approved erroneously the alteration registration of Jiuchongtian Company concerning the legal representative, stockholders and equity ownership, without presence of Plaintiff, the Letter of Attorney duly authorized by Plaintiff, the identity certificate of Plaintiff, or signature of Plaintiff. (1) Article 63(1) of the General Principles of Civil Law of the People′s Republic of China, provides “Citizens and juristic persons may perform civil juristic acts through agents”; Article 29(2) of the Law of the People′s Republic of China on the Administrative Permission provides “An applicant may entrust an agent to file the application for administrative permission”; Article 6(1) of the Provisions on Enterprise Registration Procedures provides “When applying for enterprise registration, an applicant or its authorized agent may submit an application by the following ways: (1) Going to the enterprise registration office directly”; Article 12(1)(a) of the Provisions on Enterprise Registration Procedures provides “Where an application as filed by an applicant or its authorized agent that goes to the enterprise registration office is accepted, the enterprise registration authority shall decide to approve it on the spot”.

The Letter of Attorney specifies clearly the entrusted matters, the scope and duration of the power of agency, which confirms to the second part “Rules on Documents and Materials Submitted for Alteration Registration” of the Rules on Mainland Enterprise Registration Form and Application Documents and Materials Submitted for Registration (Gongshangqizi No. 199 [2005]) issued by the State Administration for Industry and Commerce which includes [3] Rules on Documents and Materials Submitted for Alteration Registration of Legal Representative, [6] Rules on Documents and Materials Submitted for Alteration Registration of the Business Scope, and [10] Rules on Documents and Materials Submitted for Alteration Registration of stockholders.

(3) Among the relevant application documents and materials submitted by MA Xiaoxi the authorized agent to the registration authority on Mar. 27, 2006 are the Resolutions of the Stockholders’ Meeting of City B Shenzhou Jiuchongtian Development Co. Ltd. on Mar. 20, 2006 signed by WU Xiaobin and HU Xiaojin as stockholders, and two of the three Equity Transfer Agreements on Mar. 20, 2006 signed by WU Xiaobin as Party A and ZHANG Xiaojun and ZHANG Xiaoyu as Party Bs.

LI: We are the stuff of the Administrative Court of City B People’s Court. Today, we are to carry on investigation about relevant facts of a case. The case is named WU Xiaobin V. Shenzhou Branch of City B Administration for Industry and Commerce and it is about industrial and commercial administrative registration. The third parties are City B Shenzhou Jiuchongtian Development Co. Ltd., ZHANG Xiaojun, and ZHANG Xiaoyu. ZHANG: Ok. Q: Please tell to us something about the equity transfer. A: Jiuchongtian Development Co. Ltd. was incorporated as a real estate development company by ZHANG Xiaojun and me. We were the two stockholders of the Company. Afterwards, WU Xiaobin and Hu Xiaojin wanted to buy the Textile City business project and the Company’s 70 registered capital with a total amount of 84,000,000 yuan, so ZHANG Xiaojun and me transferred the project and registered capital of the Company to WU Xiaobin and Hu Xiaojin. That was the stock rights of 84,000,000 yuan. Later on, WU Xiaobin failed to pay the price due to shortage of money, and the official seal was still in ZHANG Xiaojun’s hands, so WU Xiaobin had to return the stock back to ZHANG Xiaojun and me. WU Xiaobin owned 60% of the stock rights, and he transferred 50% to ZHANG Xiaojun and 10% to me. And Hu Xiaojin transferred his 10% to ZHANG Xiaojun. The stock rights transfer was carried on without disputes, and the payment has been fully made. Q: Were the Signatures of “WU Xiaobin” on the two equity transfer agreements on Mar. 20, 2006 signed by WU Xiaobin himself? A: The Signatures of WU Xiaobin were not signed by himself, but by me. At that time, after discussion, we had agreed that I went to the Administration for Industry and Commerce to go through the alteration registration procedures, and WU Xiaobin gave me 4 copies of his ID Card with his signatures. At that time, WU Xiaobin was not in Ningbo City, the business license was about to expire, and we had to went to the Administration for Industry and Commerce for the procedures, so I went to the Administration for Industry and Commerce to carry on the procedures. Q: Were the Signatures of stockholders on the resolutions of the 71 Stockholders’ Meeting on Mar. 20, 2006 signed by themselves? A: The Signatures of the stockholders WU Xiaobin and Hu Xiaojin on the resolutions of the Stockholders’ Meeting were both signed by me, but they both agreed on the contents of the resolutions. In this case, the stock rights actually transferred. It is said ZHANG Xiaojun owes WU Xiaobin 5,000,000, and that’s the cause for this dispute. LI: Please examine our investigative transcript, and sign your name if you find no discrepancy here. 72 Main references to the application of law 1. Company Law of the People′s Republic of China 2.
