Capitalized terms used herein shall have the same meanings set out in the Company’s Circular unless the context requires otherwise. PARTICULARS OF THE DISTRIBUTION IN SPECIE 1. The number of Distribution Shares to which a Qualifying Shareholder is entitled will be calculated as follows: Number of Shares held by Qualifying Shareholder X 8 Distribution Shares (“the formula”) 2,000 Shares If the calculation above results in a fraction of a Distribution Share, the fraction of the Distribution Share will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of the Distribution Shares. Qualifying Shareholders holding at least 2,000 Shares who wish to receive wholly or partly of their entitlement in form of Distribution Shares should specify the respective number of Distribution Shares which they wish to receive in scripless form or in the form of physical share certificates in the Form of Election together with the provision of the requisite certification in one of the forms permitted in the Company’s Circular. Qualifying Shareholders should note that the Distribution Shares can only be traded on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in scripless form but cannot be traded on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in the form of physical share certificates.

Qualifying Shareholders may elect to receive cash in lieu of all or part of the Distribution Shares to which they would be entitled (calculated in accordance with the formula above). Those who wish to receive cash in lieu of all the Distribution Shares to which they would otherwise be entitled, they do not need to take any action. The cash amount payable will be calculated as follows: Number of Distribution Shares to which Qualifying Shareholder would otherwise have been entitled x Offer Price (i.e. HKD4.7 per ICBP Share) CCASS Participants who hold the Shares in CCASS as at 22 October 2010 are advised to note the following arrangements for the Distribution in Specie and give appropriate advice to their clients (i.e. Beneficial Owners) as and when they think fit:Arrangements for the Distribution in Specie in CCASS (a) A Benefit Entitlement (“BE”) Announcement No. A00123621 is maintained in CCASS with 3 events for election. That is : Event 01 – Cash option (Company Default Option) Event 02 – Scrip option in scripless form which is represented by temporary stock code 44060 Event 03 – Scrip option in physical share certificates which is represented by temporary stock code 44907 (b) If CCASS Participants who wish to receive cash in lieu of all the Distribution Shares to which they would otherwise be entitled, they do not need to take any action. (c) The cash entitlement is calculated as mentioned in Item 2 above. However, in the case that the CCASS Participants wishing to receive their entitlement under the Distribution in Specie partly in the form of Distribution Shares and partly in cash, the cash entitlement will be paid in lieu of the remaining balance of such CCASS Participants’ entitlement to Distribution Shares. Fractional entitlements to Distribution Shares will not be distributed to CCASS Participants. Also, if a CCASS Participant is entitled to less than 1 Distribution Share, it will not be entitled to receive any cash entitlement. Example for computing the cash entitlement under Distribution in Specie is appended below for illustration purpose:Holding of a CCASS Participant in CCASS: 28,850 Shares Number of Distribution Shares it is entitled to: 115 Distribution Shares Holding elected to receive Distribution Shares in Event 02: 8,800 Shares Number of Distribution Shares expected to be received in Event 02: 35 Distribution Shares Holding elected to receive Distribution Shares in Event 03: 5,000 Shares Number of Distribution Shares expected to be received in Event 03: 20 Distribution Shares Cash entitlement it is entitled to receive: HKD4.70 * (115 – 35 – 20) = HKD282.00 Cont’d/… (d) The cash receivables that to be shown on relevant Participants’ Entitlement Statement of 15 November 2010 are in approximate value, which are calculated based on the absolute value per share as mentioned in the Company’s announcement dated 7 October 2010 (i.e. HKD0.0188 per Share). The actual preliminary cash receivable (as calculated in accordance with the methodology described above) will be generated and updated by reference to elections made by the relevant CCASS Participants upon receipt of the confirmation from the Company. Separate broadcast message will be released to notify CCASS Participants of the receivable updates. (e) Certification required to receive Distribution Shares As required by the Company, the Beneficial Owners must provide the requisite certification if they wish to receive Distribution Shares. In this connection, CCASS Participants who have given election instructions to receive Distribution Shares through HKSCC for their clients (i.e. Beneficial Owners), they should submit the “Form of Certification” made by their clients for whom they hold the Shares in CCASS by returning the duly signed “Form of Certification” (as attached) to HKSCC at 2/F, Vicwood Plaza, 199 Des Voeux Road Central before 10:00 a.m. on 15 November 2010. CCASS Participants should assign a unique control number for each of the “Form of Certification” which is completed by the relevant Beneficial Owners, and such a control number should be marked on the top right hand corner of the “Form of Certification”. (f) If CCASS Participants wish to receive their entitlement under the Distribution in Specie wholly or partly in the form of Distribution Shares for their clients (i.e. Beneficial Owners), they should also specify in the relevant box of the attached summary sheet (as attached Appendix I) the number of Distribution Shares they wish to receive; distinguishing between the number of Distribution Shares which they wish to receive in scripless form or in the form of physical share certificates; together with the above-mentioned “Form of Certification” which are duly signed by each of their clients. For administrative and verification purpose, CCASS Participants are encouraged to input and authorise their election instruction through CCASS Terminals when they return the duly completed forms to HKSCC such that HKSCC can arrange to provide the respective Form of Certification to the relevant share registrar together with its Form of Election to the Company on 15 November 2010 (as stipulated in the expected timetable set out in the Company’s Circular). (g) CCASS Participants who do not provide the requisite certification will not be entitled to receive their entitlement under the Distribution in Specie in the form of Distribution Shares but will instead receive cash in lieu of the number of Distribution Shares in respect of which no certification is provided. (h) In the event that HKSCC does not receive the forms from the relevant CCASS Participants by the stipulated deadline (i.e. 10:00 a.m. on 15 November 2010), or the forms are incomplete or any requested information is not provided or is inaccurate, they will be deemed to have elected to receive cash under the Distribution in Specie. (i) Reminder for Beneficial Owners who wish to receive Distribution Shares The Distribution Shares are non-eligible securities in CCASS. Therefore those CCASS Participants who have elected to receive physical shares certificates are required to withdraw the share certificates for the relevant Beneficial Owners upon distribution.
