Details of the proposed issue of the Additional Notes, including the aggregate principal amount and the issue price, will be determined through a book building exercise to be conducted by China International Capital Corporation Hong Kong Securities Limited ("China International Capital Corporation"), HSBC and Morgan Stanley as the joint global coordinators, joint bookrunners and joint lead managers; and CMB International Capital Limited ("CMB International"), Deutsche Bank AG, Hong Kong Branch ("Deutsche Bank"), Standard Chartered Bank and SPDB International Capital Limited ("SPDB International") as the joint bookrunners and the joint lead managers.
