The payment of final dividend for the year ended 31 December 2013 of RMB0.35 per share

The Final Dividend will be distributed on 18 June 2014 to holders of A Shares and H Shares whose names appear on the register of members of the Company on 17 June 2014 and 9 June 2014 respectively. The Final Dividend payable to holders of H Shares shall be paid in HK$. The exchange rate to HK$ to be adopted shall be the average middle rates of the five business days preceding the date of declaration of such dividend (28 May 2014, excluding the date thereof) as announced by the People's Bank of China (i.e. HK$1.00 to RMB0.795456). As such, the dividend per H Share is HK$0.43999 (tax inclusive).
The Company has appointed Bank of China (Hong Kong) Trustees Ltd. as the receiving agent in Hong Kong ("Receiving Agent") and will pay to such Receiving Agent the final dividend declared for payment to holders of H Shares. The Final Dividend is expected to be paid by the Receiving Agent on 18 June 2014 and relevant cheques will be despatched to holders of H Shares entitled to receive such dividend by ordinary post at their own risk.
