Document No. 13: Report on Raising the Remuneration Standards for Independent Directors

Report on Raising the Remuneration Standards for Independent Directors Dear Shareholders:To ensure that independent directors can effectively exercise their duties, the China Securities Regulatory Commission’s “Guiding Opinions on Establishing an Independent Director System in Listed Companies” stipulates that listed companies shall provide independent directors with appropriate remuneration. The standards for such remuneration shall be proposed by the board of directors and subject to approval by the shareholders’ meeting. Given the company’s ever-expanding asset base and business scale, particularly following the completion of the share structure reform, the responsibilities of the independent directors have become even more significant. To better leverage the unique role of independent directors and effectively safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of the company and its shareholders, especially small and medium-sized shareholders, it is proposed to increase each independent director’s annual remuneration to RMB 50,000. Please review the above report. May 30, 2006 |
