DESCRIPTION OF TRANSACTION

On December 29, 2005, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Teda Hotels Management Ltd., a Hong Kong corporation, entered into an agreement (a “Purchase Agreement”) with Far Coast Asia Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands pursuant to which the Company has agreed to sell and Far Coast Asia has agreed to purchase all of the Company’s interest in Tianjin Teda Yide Industrial Company Ltd., a sino-foreign equity joint venture company established under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“Yide”).   The Company owns 35% of the total capital of Yide. A copy of the Purchase Agreement is included as Appendix A.

Reasons for the Sale

The Company believes that the sale of this asset is in the best interests of the Company. Yide is in the business of property development in China and currently owns a 5-star hotel and clubhouse in Tianjin and is also developing a timeshare property and a villa resort complex in Tianjin and Beijing respectively. However, since the Company acquired its interest in Yide in 2004, Yide has suffered continuing losses. At September 30, 2005, the Company’s total assets were approximately US$3.4 million and the Company’s investment in Yide was valued at approximately US$2.4 million, which represented approximately 70% of the Company’s total assets.

However, as of September 30, 2005, Yide had recorded liabilities of over $34 million. As a result, to date, the Company has recorded an accumulated loss with respect to this investment of over US$650,000 and depreciation of over US$591,000, which has reduced the value of this asset to approximately US$2.4 million from US$3.6 million at the time of the acquisition in 2004.

In addition, management does not believe that its investment in Yide is compatible with the core business of the Company and the sale of this asset will allow management to focus entirely on the Company’s core business. Furthermore, the cash generated by the sale of this asset will enable the Company to grow its hotel management network and travel service platform or invest in such other projects as the Company deems is in the best interest of its stockholders.

Terms of the Sale

Purchase Price

In accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company will sell all of its interest in Yide to Far Coast Asia for the aggregate purchase price in Hong Kong dollars equal to US$3.0 million. The amount equal to US$800,000 was paid to the Company upon execution of the Purchase Agreement and the remaining amount equal to US$2.2 million is payable on the closing of the transaction.

Closing Date

The Closing will occur one business day after the later of (i) a date at least 20 days after the date on which this information statement has been mailed to the stockholders and (ii) the Company’s delivery of full transfer documentation and the receipt of the necessary regulatory approvals to the sale from the People’s Republic of China.

Conditions to the Sale

The Company will not complete the sale unless and until the Company has received the necessary regulatory approvals from the Tianjin City Government of the People’s Republic of China.

Representations And Warranties

The Purchase Agreement contains a number of customary representations and warranties made by the Company and Far Coast Asia, including representations and warranties regarding:

  • Due organization, good standing and corporate power and authority;

  • Capitalization;

  • Ownership of the interest in Yide;

  • Corporate power and authority to enter into the Purchase Agreement and lack of conflicts with corporate governance documents, contracts or laws;

Profit on Transaction

The Company will receive Hong Kong dollars of 23.4 million, equivalent to US$3.0 million (assuming an exchange rate of 7.8 Hong Kong dollars per U.S. dollar), and record a profit of approximately US$600,000 as a result of the sale of this asset.

Regulatory Requirements

The sale of the Company’s interest in Yide requires the approval of several departments of the Tianjin City Government of the People’s Republic of China. Far Coast Asia is responsible for obtaining all requisite consents and approvals from such departments of the Tianjin City Government of the People’s Republic of China.

Material Tax Consequences

There will be no tax consequences to the Company or its shareholders as a result of this sale.
