timely repayment of a loan, the Board submit application to the EGM to consider and 
approve the provision of entrusted loan by the Company to Duolun Coal Chemical 
Company Limited ("Duolun Coal Chemical Company") through Datang Corporation Finance 
Limited Company ("Datang Finance Company"). The above three parties have entered into 
the entrusted loan agreement. The agreement is for general loans, which means within 
the term of the agreement, the total withdrawal amount should not exceed RMB3,000

will be completed.

Corporation ("CDC"), the controlling shareholder of the Company, holds 40% of the 
equity interest of Duolun Coal Chemical Company, Datang Finance Company is a 
subsidiary of CDC, so according to the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on 
the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited ("Listing Rules"), Duolun Coal Chemical 
Company and Datang Finance Company are connected persons of the Company and the 
transaction constitutes a connected transaction of the Company. Since one of the
