REVISION OF 2006 CAP FOR

CONTINUING CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS

As disclosed in the 2005 Annual Report, the Company has entered into the Media Services Agreement with TOM International for the provision of Media Services to the Group. As TOM International is an Associate of TOM Group, a substantial shareholder of the Company under the GEM Listing Rules, the Transactions constituted continuing connected transactions of the Company. The Cap for the Media Services under the Media Services Agreement for the year ending 31 December 2006 is HK$5,000,000.

Based on the Group’s internal projection of fees payable under contracts under negotiations, which are expected to be signed in 2006, the Company anticipates that the maximum total amount of fees to be paid by the Group for the Media Services under the Media Services Agreement for the year ending 31 December 2006 will amount to approximately HK$12,000,000, which will exceed the 2006 Original Cap. The 2006 Original Cap will therefore be revised from HK$5,000,000 to HK$12,000,000 accordingly.

As the 2006 Revised Cap exceeds the 2006 Original Cap, pursuant to Rule 20.36(1) of the GEM Listing Rules, the Company is required to re-comply with Rules 20.35(3) and (4) of the GEM Listing Rules. However, as each of the applicable percentage ratios for the transactions under the Media Services Agreement (based on the 2006 Revised Cap) is less than 2.5%, the Transactions are only subject to the reporting and announcement requirements set out in Rules 20.45 to 20.47 of the GEM Listing Rules and no independent shareholders’ approval is required.

MEDIA SERVICES AGREEMENT

As disclosed in the section headed “CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS” in the 2005 Annual Report, the Company has entered into the Media Services Agreement with TOM International, details of which are as follows:


Date:		26 September 2003

Parties:		(1) the Company (2) TOM International

Services provided or to be provided:		TOM International shall provide, and/or use reasonable endeavours to procure the provision of certain goods and services to the Group on a non-exclusive basis, including print and publishing services, advertising services, public relations and sports event management and other organization services, content, advertising services and other marketing or promotional services in relation to the television channel operated by China Entertainment Television Broadcast Limited (“Media Services”).

Fee:		The fee payable for the provision of the Media Services shall be separately determined and agreed between such member of TOM Group who provides the relevant Media Services and such member of the Group who requests the Media Services prior to their entering into each of such transaction.

Charging basis:		The fee for the Media Services shall be calculated with reference to the market rate for the provision of the relevant Media Services.

Term:		From 26 September 2003 and expiring on 31 December 2006.

Continuing connected transactions

As TOM International is an Associate of TOM Group, a substantial shareholder of the Company under the GEM Listing Rules, the Transactions constituted continuing connected transactions of the Company.

Annual Caps:

For the year ended 31 December 2004 – HK$3,000,000

For the year ended 31 December 2005 – HK$4,000,000

For the year ending 31 December 2006 – HK$5,000,000 (“2006 Original Cap”)

The basis for determining the above Caps has been disclosed in the prospectus of the Company dated 2 March 2004.

As disclosed in the 2005 Annual Report, the Stock Exchange has granted a waiver to the Company for compliance with the announcement and shareholders’ approval requirements under Rules 20.35 and 20.36 of the GEM Listing Rules, respectively, during the remaining term of the Media Services Agreement.

2006 Revised Cap and re-compliance of the GEM Listing Rules

For information purpose, the fees paid by the Group to TOM International for the Media Services for the years ended 31 December 2004 and 2005 amounted to HK$164,850 and HK$1,871,000, respectively. The fees payable for the provision of the Media Services for the five months ended May 2006 was approximately HK$3,600,000, which has not exceeded the 2006 Original Cap.

Based on the Group’s internal projection of fees payable under contracts under negotiations of approximately HK$8,000,000, which contracts relate to the provision of wireless contents and are expected to be signed in 2006, the Company anticipates that the maximum total amount of fees to be paid by the Group for the Media Services under the Media Services Agreement for the year ending 31 December 2006 will amount to approximately HK$12,000,000, which will exceed the 2006 Original Cap. The 2006 Original Cap will therefore be revised from HK$5,000,000 to HK$12,000,000 accordingly.

If the Media Services Agreement (which will expire on 31 December 2006) is renewed by the parties, the Company will re-comply with the relevant requirements for continuing connected transactions under the GEM Listing Rules.

The Directors, including the independent non-executive Directors, consider that the Transactions are and will continue to be conducted in the usual and ordinary course of business of the Group and in accordance with the terms of the Media Services Agreement, and are and will be based on normal commercial terms (and such terms no less favourable to the Group than terms available to or from independent third parties). The Directors are of the view that the terms of the Media Services Agreement and the 2006 Revised Cap are fair and reasonable and in the interest of the shareholders of the Company as a whole.
