Notes:

1. In view of the provision of the guarantee by China Datang Overseas
Investment Co., Limited ("Datang Overseas Investment"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of China Datang Corporation, with its H shares of the Company as a
pledge to secure the loan not exceeding HK$690 million to be borrowed by Datang
International (Hong Kong) Ltd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, from
Bank of China (Hong Kong) Limited, the board of directors of the Company agreed
that the Company would provide a counter-guarantee in respect of the
above-mentioned guarantee for Datang Overseas Investment. The counter-guarantee
will be provided on a joint-liability basis. According to the Listing Rules of
the Shanghai Stock Exchange and the Articles, as the asset-liability ratio of

Datang Hong Kong Company by the Company is required to be submitted to the
general meeting for shareholders' consideration and approval.

Please refer to the announcement of the Company dated 28 January 2011 for
