Enterprise ("PRC GAAP"). For segment information, please refer to Note 5 to the
audited financial information below:)
1. The Power Generation Business
(1) Business Review
The Company is one of the largest independent power producers in the PRC. As at
the end of 2010, the Group managed a total installed capacity of approximately
36,300.3MW. The power generation business of the Group is mainly distributed
across the power grids of North China, Gansu, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Yunnan,
Fujian, Guangdong, Chongqing, Jiangxi , Liaoning, Ningxia, and Qinghai.
In 2010, the PRC's overall economy operated with a good momentum, reaching a
year-on-year 10.3% Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth. Both power generation
and power consumption nationwide re-climbed at an accelerated rate. According
to relevant statistics, during the Year, the nationwide installed capacity grew
by approximately 10.07% year-on-year. Social power consumption increased by
14.56% over the Previous Year, while nationwide power generation increased by
approximately 13.3% over the Previous Year. Utilisation hours of power
generation facilities were on the rise as a whole, but prices of coal for power
generation increased significantly and remained at high levels. Meanwhile, due
to exceptionally serious droughts in the southwestern regions in spring, the
profitability of hydropower enterprises has been affected significantly. Under
the market conditions of the co-existence of opportunities and challenges, the
Company's power generation business has been developing at a stable and fast
pace, thereby enabling its profit to maintain significant growth.
(i) Maintenance of Safe and Stable Power Production
During the Year, total power generation of the Group amounted to 178.4781
billion kWh, representing an increase of 25.81% over the Previous Year. The
accumulative on-grid power generation amounted to 168.2278 billion kWh,
representing an increase of 25.96% over the Previous Year. The increases in
power generation and on-grid power generation were mainly attributable to an
increase in the capacity of operational generating units of the Group, safe and
stable operation of the generating units and a steadily increasing power demand
in the service territories. During the Year, the Group added new installed
capacity of 5,558.5 MW. Consolidated utilisation hours amounted to 4,998 hours,
an increase of 91 hours year-on-year. No casualties or material damage to the
production facilities occurred to the Group during the course of power
production. The equivalent availability coefficient of the operational
generating units amounted to 95.31%, representing an increase of 0.55
percentage point over the Previous Year.
(ii) Steady Progress in Energy Conservation and Emissions Reduction
During the Year, the Company adhered to management by objective, program
control, dynamic benchmarking and monitoring; enhanced management on energy
conservation; focused on economic operation of power generation facilities; and
intensified technological renovation on energy conservation and facilities
treatment, thereby enhancing the utilisation efficiency of generating units.
During the Year, coal consumption for power supply was 323.59 g/kWh,
representing a decrease of approximately 2.92 g/kWh over the Previous Year.
Consolidated electricity consumption rate of power plants was 5.82%,
representing a decrease of 0.03 percentage-point year-on-year. The
desulphurisation facilities operation rate and an overall desulphurisation
efficiency rate amounted to 99.20% and 93.61%, respectively. The coal-fired
generating units of the Group continued to achieve a desulphurisation
facilities installation rate of 100%. The emission rates of sulphur dioxide,
nitrogen oxides, smoke ash and waste water decreased by 5.34%, 9.40%, 14.52%
and 43.44% year-on-year to 0.420g/kWh, 1.396g/kWh, 0.126g/kWh and 75g/kWh,
respectively, which are lower than the national average levels.
(iii) Reinforced Economic Analysis and Improved Operational Management
Efficiency
During the Year, the Company was still impacted by unfavourable factors such as
soaring coal prices lingering at high levels and inability to realize tariff
adjustments. Faced with such a continuously tough operating environment, the
Company kept abreast of the market trend while taking initiatives in planning
budgets, strengthening internal management and at the same time creating a
favourable external environment, thereby rigorously enhancing production and
operation: (1) Management accountability has been implemented gradually, and
targets of power generation were achieved. Consolidated utilisation hours of
generating units amounted to 4,998 hours, an increase of 91 hours year-on-year.
(2) Through measurements such as developing economical coal to ensure fuel
supply, enhancing coal blended burning and setting up an improvement platform
on fuel management indices, fuel costs were effectively controlled. (3) Through
various measures such as proper cash allocation, distribution of capital
according to needs, prompt repayment of loans, reduction of capital
sedimentation and optimisation of loan structure, capital costs were lowered.
(iv) Actively Pushed Forward Projects Construction and Increased Green Energy
Capacity
During the Year, seven power projects of the Company have been approved by the
State including two coal-fired power generation projects with an approved total
capacity of 3,320 MW, one hydropower project with an approved total capacity of

the proportion of capacity in clean and renewable energy increased to 11.82%.
The Company's power generation structure was further optimised.
(2) Major Financial Indicators and Analysis
(i) Operating Revenue
During the Year, revenues of the Group from electricity sales and heat sales
accounted for approximately 89.22% of the total operating revenue, of which
revenue from electricity sales accounted for approximately 88.33% of the total
operating revenue.
During the Year, the Group achieved revenues of approximately RMB53,594 million
and RMB540 million from electricity sales and heat sales, respectively,
representing increases of approximately 27.47% and 40.92% over the Previous
Year, respectively. In particular, the increase in revenue from electricity
sales was mainly due to the increases in on-grid power generation and average
tariff of on-grid power. During the Year, the commencements of operation of the
Group's generating units in coastal regions optimised the power generation
structure of the Group and raised the average on-grid power tariff. The average
on-grid power tariff of the Group increased by 1.2% over the Previous Year, and
the operating revenue from electricity increased by approximately RMB831
million accordingly. The increase in on-grid power generation resulted in the
increase of approximately RMB10,719 million in the Group's revenue.
(ii) Operating Costs
During the Year, the power and thermal fuel costs of the Group increased to
RMB32,143 million comparing with the Previous Year. The increase is mainly
attributable to: 1) an increase in fuel costs due to an increase of 32.192
billion kWh in on-grid coal-fired power generation over the Previous Year; 2)
an increase in fuel costs due to an increase of RMB25.99/MWh in unit fuel cost
over the Previous Year.
During the Year, depreciation expenses of the Group for the year decreased by
approximately RMB1,800 million, which was mainly attributed to changes in
accounting estimates of fixed assets made by the Group in order to enhance the
comparability of accounting information among listed companies of the same
industry.
(iii) Operating Profit
During the Year, operating profit from electricity sales and heat sales
amounted to approximately RMB10,690 million, while the gross profit margin was
approximately 19.75%, representing an increase of approximately 30.86% over the
Previous Year.
2. Coal Chemical Business
(1) The Duolun Coal Chemical Project, developed and constructed by the Group as
a controlling interest is located at Duolun County, Xilinguole Pledge, Inner
Mongolia. It uses lignite coal from the Inner Mongolia Shengli Coal Mine as raw
materials; and it applies internationally advanced technologies including the
technology of vaporising coal ash, the syngas purification technology, the
large-scale ethanol synthesis technology, the technology to convert methanol to
propylene, and the propylene polymerisation technology to produce coal chemical
products. The final product of the project is 460,000 tonnes/year of
polypropylene and other by-products.
The coal chemical project is under construction and has succeeded in the first
trial run at two gasifiers. The successful conduct of critical phases such as
the successful operation of the response system of the methanol-to-propylene
(MTP) facility in one go and the production of alkene with qualified
constituents marked a significant breakthrough on the core technologies of the
Duolun Coal Chemical Project. This has laid a solid foundation for openning up
the whole-line process flows and ensuring a stable production of polypropylene
products. It is expected that upon its successful development and construction,
the project will become a new income base for the Group.
(2) The Keqi Coal-based Natural Gas Project with an annual output of 4 billion
cubic meters, developed and constructed by the Group with controlling
interests, is located in Kesheketeng Qi, Chifeng City, the Inner Mongolia
Autonomous Region. Upon its completion, the major supply targets of the project
are Beijing and cities along the gas transmission pipeline. As a political,
cultural and financial centre of the PRC, Beijing has a strong demand for clean
energy such as natural gas, given the city's higher requirement for the quality
of the air environment. The Company believes that following the completion of
the Keqi Coal-based Natural Gas Project, it will benefit from the growing
demand for clean energy in Beijing and the cities along the gas transmission
pipeline, thereby increasing the overall profitability of the Company.
During the Year, the power plants at the Keqi Coal-based Natural Gas Project
were completed and delivered for operation before the Year end. Other
construction works are proceeding at an accelerated speed, with the project
aiming to commence operation in 2012.
(3) The Fuxin Coal-based Natural Gas Project in Liaoning with an annual output
of 4 billion cubic meters, developed and constructed by the Group with
controlling interests, is located in Fuxin City, Liaoning Province. The project
was approved and commenced construction in 2010. Upon its completion, the
project aims to supply natural gas largely to Shenyang City in Liaoning
Province and nearby cities such as Tieling, Fushun, Benxi and Fuxin. Liaoning
Province has experienced fast economic growth. With the acceleration of
urbanisation, the reform in coal-fired boilers and the development of gas buses
and industries using natural gas as raw material, the supply gap of natural gas
in the above cities will grow bigger and bigger. Following the completion of
the Fuxin Coal-based Natural Gas Project, the Company will benefit from the
growing demand for clean energy in Shenyang and nearby cities which have
experienced rapid economic development, thereby increasing the overall
profitability of the Company. The Fuxin Coal-based Natural Gas Project is
expediting its construction with the target to commence production in 2012.
(4) The High-Aluminium Pulverised Fuel Ash Project of Inner Mongolia Renewable
Energy Resource Development Company Limited, constructed by the Company with
controlling interests, proceeded smoothly. During the Year, the project opened
up process flows involving the extraction of alumina from high-aluminium
pulverised fuel ash, providing technical support to the Group's deployment of
its recycle economy businesses. .

D. Outlook for 2011
2011 is the first year of the Twelfth Five-year Plan implemented by the State.
It is full of opportunities and challenges in both the internal and external
environments.
As far as opportunities are concerned, firstly, the long-term development of
the domestic economy remains favourable. As indicated by relevant forecasts,
the GDP growth rate is likely to be approximately 9% in 2011, and the growth
rate of social power consumption is expected to exceed 10%. Secondly, the
national growth rate of installed generating units is expected to reach
approximately 9.5% in 2011, which is slightly lower than the growth rate of
social power consumption. Utilisation hours of generating units are likely to
remain basically stable or undergo a slight increase. Thirdly, the Group has
achieved leadership positions in the PRC in various aspects such as reliability
of generating units and facilities, indices of energy conservation and
emissions reduction, and technical skills and qualifications of personnel.
Owing to its outstanding advantages of having expanding capacity in generating
units located along the southeastern coastal region and having large-capacity
generating units, the Company is in a favourable position amidst the fierce
competition in the electricity market. Fourthly, given the successive
commencements of operation and developments in the Company's non-power
businesses such as coal, railway, port, shipping, petrochemical and recycle
economy, achievements of the Company's diversified developments will gradually
be seen.
As far as challenges are concerned, firstly, the impact of the global financial
crisis is profound and long-lasting, and the post-financial-crisis era will
bring about various risks. Secondly, the current successive implementation of
policies regarding upward adjustments of the deposit-reserve ratio and
increases of interest rates has further tightened the availability of funds for
power generation enterprises. Thirdly, there are uncertainties in the coal and
electricity markets, and fuel coal prices are still expected to rise and to
remain at a high level, thus rendering the operating situation severe for power
enterprises which have coal-fired generating units as their major assets.
Fourthly, the pressure on energy conservation and emissions reduction will
continuously increase.
Faced with the above-mentioned complicated and volatile situations, the Company
will continue to adhere to the strategy of "focusing in the power generation
business whilst complementing with synergistic diversifications", and will keep
on implementing the development strategy of "enhancing its coal-fired power,
aggressively expanding its hydropower, continuously developing wind power,
strategically developing nuclear power, appropriately developing solar power,
focusing on suitable coal operations, actively and steadily developing
coal-to-chemical business, pushing forward the development of alumina, and
securing a complementary development of railway, port and shipping". It will
seize new opportunities, overcome new challenges, realize new breakthroughs,
stride ahead and build up new strengths.
1. Endeavour to be a "Four-feature Enterprise"
The Company will place emphasis on establishing a new type of enterprise
featuring fundamental safety, resources conservation, green environment and
technology innovation. It will continue to further implement a comprehensive
accountability management system and a performance appraisal system for all
staff, building a "four-feature" enterprise with a focus on fundamental safety.
2. Enhance Profitability
The Company will further improve the comprehensive budget management system,

Note:
1. BASIS OF PREPARATION
The consolidated financial statements of Datang International Power Generation
Co., Ltd. (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the
"Group") have been prepared in accordance with International Financial
Reporting Standards and the applicable disclosures required by the Rules
Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited
and by the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance. These financial statements have been
prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation
of certain available-for-sale investments.
At 31 December 2010, a significant portion of the funding requirements of the
Group for capital expenditures was satisfied by short-term borrowings.
Consequently, at 31 December 2010, the Group had net current liabilities of
approximately RMB34.39 billion (2009, as restated: RMB24.73 billion). The Group
had significant undrawn borrowing facilities, subject to certain conditions,
amounting to approximately RMB145.98 billion (2009: RMB169.00 billion) and may
refinance and/or restructure certain short-term borrowings into long-term
borrowings and will also consider alternative sources of financing, where
applicable. The directors of the Company are of the opinion that the Group will
be able to meet its liabilities as and when they fall due within the next
twelve months and have prepared these financial statements on a going concern
basis.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting policies have been consistently applied to all the years
presented, unless otherwise stated.
In the current year, the Group has adopted all the new and revised
International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs") that are relevant to its
operations and effective for its accounting year beginning on 1 January 2010.
IFRSs comprise International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS");
International Accounting Standards ("IAS"); and Interpretations. The adoption
of these new and revised IFRSs did not result in significant changes to the
Group's accounting policies and amounts reported for the current year and prior
years except as stated below.
* Business combinations
IFRS 3 (Revised) "Business Combinations" continues to require acquisition
method to be applied to business combinations with some significant changes:
-- Contingent consideration is recognised at its acquisition-date fair value and
forms part of the cost of acquisition. The previous IFRS 3 requires that a
contingent consideration be recognised if it is probable and can be measured
reliably.
-- In a business combination achieved in stages, the previously held equity
interest in the subsidiary is remeasured at its acquisition-date fair value and
the resulting gain or loss is recognised in consolidated profit or loss. The
fair value is added to the cost of acquisition to calculate goodwill. The
previous IFRS 3 does not have a requirement for such fair value measurement.
-- There is a choice to measure initially the non-controlling interests in a
subsidiary either at their acquisition-date fair value or the non-controlling
shareholders' proportionate share of the net fair value of the subsidiary's
identifiable assets and liabilities at the acquisition date. The previous IFRS
3 only allows the latter choice.
-- If a business combination is accounted for using provisional amounts, the
measurement period that the provisional amounts can be adjusted retrospectively
is limited to one year from the acquisition date to reflect new information
obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date
and, if known, would have affected the measurement of the amounts recognised as
of that date. The previous IFRS 3 does not have a time limit for adjustments in
relation to contingent considerations and deferred tax assets. Subsequent
adjustments to contingent considerations and deferred tax assets will adjust
goodwill.
-- Acquisition-related costs are recognised as expenses in the periods in which
the costs are incurred and the services are received. The previous IFRS 3
requires that acquisition-related costs form part of the cost of a business
combination.
IFRS 3 (Revised) has been applied prospectively to business combinations for
which the acquisition date is on or after 1 January 2010 and resulted in
changes in the consolidated amounts reported in the financial statements as
follows:
2010 2009
--------- ---------
RMB'000 RMB'000
unless
otherwise
stated
Decrease in goodwill (7,860) -
Increase in operating expenses - others 7,860 -
Decrease in earnings per share (RMB) - -
* Classification of land leases
Amendments to IAS 17 "Leases" deleted the guidance in IAS 17 that when the land
has an indefinite economic life, the land element is normally classified as an
operating lease unless title is expected to pass to the lessee by the end of
the lease term.
The adoption of the amendments to IAS 17 has resulted in a change in accounting
policy for the classification of leasehold land of the Group. Previously,
leasehold land was classified as an operating lease and stated at cost less
accumulated amortisation. In accordance with the amendments, leasehold land is
classified as a finance lease and stated at cost less accumulated depreciation
if substantially all risks and rewards of the leasehold land have been
transferred to the Group. As the present value of the minimum lease payments
(i.e. the transaction price) of the land held by the Group amounted to
substantially all of the fair value of the land as if it were freehold, the
leasehold land of the Group has been classified as a finance lease. The
amendments have been applied retrospectively to unexpired leases at the date of
adoption of the amendments on the basis of information existing at the
inception of the leases.
Amendments to IAS 17 has been applied retrospectively and resulted in changes
in the consolidated amounts reported in the financial statements as follows:
At At At

Decrease in land use rights (1,990,989) (1,523,509) (1,269,909)
The Group has not applied new IFRSs that have been issued but are not yet
effective. The Group has already commenced an assessment of the impact of these
new IFRSs but is not yet in a position to state whether these new IFRSs would
have a material impact on its results of operations and financial position.

The goodwill arising on the acquisition of Yuneng Group, Datang Deqin and Baoli
Company is attributable to the anticipated profitability of their power
generation or coal mining operations and the anticipated future operating
synergies from the combination.
Yuneng Group, Datang Deqin, Datang Fuxin and Baoli Company increased the
Group's profit for the year by RMB30,355 thousand, nil, nil and RMB25,101
thousand respectively between the respective dates of acquisition and the end
of the reporting period.
If all the above acquisitions had been completed on 1 January 2010, total Group
revenue for the year would have been RMB60,748,663 thousand, and profit for the
year would have been RMB3,835,570 thousand. The proforma information is for
illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily an indication of the turnover
and results of operations of the Group that actually would have been achieved
had the acquisition been completed on 1 January 2010, nor is intended to be a
projection of future results.

5. Segment information
Executive directors and certain senior management (including chief accountant)
of the Company perform the function as chief operating decision makers
(collectively referred to as the "Senior Management"). The Senior Management
reviews the internal reporting of the Group in order to assess performance and
allocate resources. Senior Management has determined the operating segments
based on these reports.
Senior Management considers the business from a product perspective. Senior
Management primarily assesses the performance of power generation, coal and
chemical separately. Other operating activities primarily include sales of
properties and cement products, transportation services, etc., and are included
in "other segments".
Senior Management assesses the performance of the operating segments based on a
measure of profit before tax prepared under PRC GAAP.
Segment profits or losses do not include dividend income from listed
available-for-sale investments and gain on disposals of available-for-sale
investments. Segment assets exclude deferred tax assets and available-for-sale
investments. Segment liabilities exclude the current tax liabilities and
deferred tax liabilities. Sales between operating segments are marked to market
or contracted close to market price and have been eliminated at consolidation
level. Unless otherwise noted below, all such financial information in the
segment tables below is prepared under PRC GAAP.

Proposed final of RMB0.07 (2009: RMB0.07) per share 861,703 861,703
======== ========
Pursuant to the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, the Company is required to
withhold 10% PRC enterprise income tax when it distributes dividends to its
non-PRC resident enterprise shareholders.
Statutory surplus reserve
In accordance with the relevant laws and regulations of the PRC and the
articles of association of the Company, it is required to appropriate 10% of
their net profit under PRC GAAP, after offsetting any prior years' losses, to
the statutory surplus reserve. When the balance of such a reserve reaches 50%
of the Company's share capital, any further appropriation is optional.
The statutory surplus reserve can be used to offset prior years' losses, if
any, and may be converted into share capital by issuing new shares to
shareholders in proportion to their existing shareholding or by increasing the
par value of the shares currently held by them, provided that the remaining
balance of the reserve after such an issue is not less than 25% of share
capital. The statutory surplus reserve is non-distributable.
Discretionary surplus reserve
Pursuant to the articles of association of the Company, the appropriation of
profit to the discretionary surplus reserve and its utilisation are made in
accordance with the recommendation of the Board of Directors and is subject to
shareholders' approval at their general meeting.
The discretionary surplus reserve can be used to offset prior years' losses, if
any, and may be converted into share capital by issuing new shares to
shareholders in proportion to their existing shareholding or by increasing the
par value of the shares currently held by them. The discretionary surplus
reserve is distributable.
Restricted reserve
Pursuant to relevant regulations and guidance issued by the MOF, certain
deferred housing benefits are charged to equity directly when incurred under
PRC GAAP. In order to reflect such undistributable retained earnings in these
financial statements prepared under IFRS, a restricted reserve is set up to
reduce the balance of retained earnings with an amount equals to the residual
balance of deferred housing benefits, net of tax.
Pursuant to relevant PRC regulations, coal mining companies are required to set
aside an amount to a fund for future development and work safety which they
transferred certain amounts from retained earnings to restricted reserve. The
fund can then be used for future development and work safety of the coal mining
operations, and is not available for distribution to shareholders. When
qualifying development expenditure and improvements of safety incurred, an
equivalent amount is transferred from restricted reserve to retained earnings.
9. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share
The calculation of basic earnings per share attributable to owners of the
Company is based on the profit for the year attributable to owners of the
Company of RMB2,569,734 thousand (2009, as restated: RMB1,536,554 thousand) and
the weighted average number of ordinary shares of 12,192,421 thousand (2009:
11,780,038 thousand) in issue during the year.
Diluted earnings per share
No diluted earnings per share are presented as the Company did not have any
dilutive potential ordinary shares during the years ended 31 December 2010 and
2009.

13. RETROSPECTIVE ADJUSTMENTS
According to document Shen Qi Jue [2010] 468 "Audit Decisions Relating to
Financial Affairs of Income and Expenditure of China Datang for the Year 2009"
dated 31 December 2010 issued by National Audit Office of the PRC, impairment
losses on property, plant and equipment, allowance for inventories and
depreciation of property, plant and equipment of the Company for the year ended
31 December 2009 were understated by RMB80,473 thousand, RMB14,667 thousand and
RMB4,408 thousand respectively mainly resulting from closure of certain power
generating units and their spare parts or delay in transferring certain
construction in progress to property, plant and equipment (collectively
referred to as the "Prior Year Errors"). The Group has made retrospective
adjustments of the comparative figures for the year ended 31 December 2010 to
correct the Prior Year Errors.
After retrospective adjustments, operating costs of the Group for the year
ended 31 December 2009 increased by RMB99,548 thousand while income tax expense
and profit for the year of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2009
decreased by RMB23,785 thousand and RMB75,763 thousand respectively; and
deferred tax assets of the Group at 1 January 2010 increased by RMB23,785
thousand while inventories, property, plant and equipment, statutory surplus
reserve and retained earnings of the Group at 1 January 2010 decreased by
RMB14,667 thousand, RMB84,881 thousand, RMBRMB7,576 and RMB68,187 respectively.

owners of the Company under IFRS ========== ==========
Note:
(a) Difference in the commencement of depreciation of property, plant and
equipment
This represents the depreciation difference arose from the different timing of
the start of depreciation charge in previous years
(b) Difference in accounting treatment on monetary housing benefits
Under PRC GAAP, the monetary housing benefits provided to employees who started
work before 31 December 1998 were directly deducted from the retained earnings
and statutory public welfare fund after approval by the general meeting of the
Company and its subsidiaries
Under IFRS, these benefits are recorded as deferred assets and amortised on a
straight-line basis over the estimated service lives of relevant employees.
(c) Difference in accounting treatment on mining funds
Under PRC GAAP, accrual of future development and work safety expenses are
included in respective product cost or current period profit or loss and
recorded in a specific reserve accordingly. When such future development and
work safety expenses are applied and related to revenue expenditures, specific
reserve is directly offset when expenses incurred. When capital expenditures
are incurred, they are included in construction in progress and transferred to
fixed assets when the related assets reach the expected use condition. They are
then offset against specific reserve based on the amount included in fixed
assets while corresponding amount is recognised in accumulated depreciation.
Such fixed assets are not depreciated in subsequent periods.
Under IFRS, coal mining companies are required to set aside an amount to a fund
for future development and work safety through transferring from retained
earnings to restricted reserve. When qualifying revenue expenditures are
incurred, such expenses are recorded in the profit or loss as incurred. When
capital expenditures are incurred, an amount is transferred to property, plant
and equipment and is depreciated in accordance with the depreciation policy of
the Group. Internal equity items transfers take place based on the actual
application amount of future development and work safety expenses whereas
restricted reserve is offset against retained earnings to the extent of zero.
(d) Applicable deferred tax impact on the above GAAP Differences
This represents the deferred tax effect on the above GAAP Differences where
applicable
