Notes to Financial Statements Interim 2010 39 (9) Financial instrument Financial instruments include financial assets, financial liabilities and equity instruments. 1. Classification of financial instruments According to the purpose of holding financial assets and financial liabilities, the Company classifies its financial assets and financial liabilities as: financial assets or financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss, including: Held-to-maturity investment; loans and receivables and other financial liabilities. 2. Recognition and Measurement of financial instruments (1) The financial assets(financial liabilities) at fair value through profit or loss includes: The financial assets (financial liabilities) at fair value through profit or loss are recognized initially at fair value (minus cash dividends declared but not received or bond interest matured but not drawn yet). The relevant transaction cost is recognized in the income statement when occurred. Interests or cash dividends during the period of holding are recognized as investment gains. The fair value will be adjusted and accounted as current gain/loss. When disposed, the differences between fair value and initial amount are recognized as investment gains, and thus adjust the gain/loss of fair value. (2) Held-to-maturity investment The Held-to-maturity investments are recognized initially at fair value (minus bond interest matured but not drawn yet). The relevant transaction cost is recognized in the income statement when occurred. The held-to-maturity investments are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate. The interest income is recognized as investment income. The effective interest will be determined at the initial recognition and will not be changed in the holding period or within the applicable period. When disposing the held-to-maturity investment, the difference between the investing proceeds and the carrying value is recognized as investment income. (3) Receivables Receivables from selling products and rendering services or receivable of other company not including the receivables with quoted price in the active market (Including: accounts receivable, other receivables, bill receivables, prepayments, long-term receivables) are measured at contract price; if the receivables is of financing nature, it shall be recognized at the present value initially. When disposing the receivables, the difference between the proceeds and the carrying value is recognized in the income statement. (4) Available for sale financial assets Available for sale financial assets are initially recorded at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs on the trade date and subsequently re-measured at fair value. The price including the declared but not received bond interest or cash dividend is recognized as a separate item. The Company recognizes the interest or cash dividends as investment income. At each balance sheet date, available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value and the fair value changes are recognized in the capital reserve - other capital reserve. The difference between the proceeds of the disposal and the carrying value should be recognized as investment income. And the related fair value change in the equity should be transferred out, and recorded as investment income. (5) Other financial liabilities For other financial liabilities, they are initially recognized at fair value plus any directly attributableBengang Steel Plates Co., Ltd. Notes to Financial Statements Interim 2010 40 transaction costs. After the initial recognition, the other financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost. 3. Basis of recognition and accounting of financial asset transferring Where an enterprise has transferred nearly all of the risks and rewards related to the ownership of the financial asset to the transferee, it shall stop recognizing the financial asset. If it retained nearly all of the risks and rewards related to the ownership of the financial asset, it shall not stop recognizing the financial asset. To judge whether the transfer of a financial asset can satisfy the conditions as prescribed in these Standards for stopping the recognition of a financial asset, the enterprise shall pay more attention to the essential of the transfer of the financial asset. (1) Book value of the financial asset to be transposed; (2) The sum of price received due to the transposition, and the accumulation of change in fair value originally accounted as owners’ equity (when the asset to be transposed is saleable financial asset). If the transfer of partial financial asset satisfies the conditions to stop the recognition, the entire book value of the transferred financial asset shall, between the portion whose recognition has been stopped and the portion whose recognition has not been stopped, be apportioned according to their respective relative fair value, and the difference between the amounts of the following 2 items shall be included into the profits and losses of the current period : (1) The book value of the portion whose recognition has been stopped; (2) The sum of consideration of the portion whose recognition has been stopped, and the portion of the accumulative amount of the changes in the fair value originally recorded in the owner's equities which is corresponding to the portion whose recognition has been stopped (in the event that the financial asset involved in the transfer is a financial asset available for sale). If the transfer of financial assets does not satisfy the conditions to stop the recognition, it shall continue to be recognized as financial assets and the consideration received shall be recognized as financial liabilities. 4. Termination of recognition of financial liabilities Only when the prevailing obligations of a financial liability are relieved in all or in part may the recognition of the financial liability be terminated in all or partly. Where an enterprise (debtor) enters into an agreement with a creditor so as to substitute the existing financial liabilities by way of any new financial liability, and if the contractual stipulations regarding the new financial liability is substantially different from that regarding the existing financial liability, it shall terminate the recognition of the existing financial liability, and shall at the same time recognize the new financial liability. Where an enterprise makes substantial revisions to some or all of the contractual stipulations of the existing financial liability, it shall terminated the recognition of the existing financial liability or part of it, and at the same time recognize the financial liability after revising the contractual stipulations as a new financial liability. Where the recognition of a financial liability is totally or partially terminated, the enterprise concerned shall include into the profits and losses of the current period the gap between the carrying amount which has been terminated from recognition and the considerations it has paid (including the non-cash assets it has transferred out and the new financial liabilities it has assumed). Where an enterprise buys back part of its financial liabilities, it shall distribute, on the repo day, the carrying amount of the whole financial liabilities in light of the comparatively fair value of the part that continues to be recognized and the part whose recognition has already been terminated. The gap between the carrying amount which is distributed to the part whose recognition has terminated and the considerations it has paid (including the noncash assets it has transferred out and the new financial liabilities it has assumed) shall be recorded into the profits and losses of the current period.Bengang Steel Plates Co., Ltd. Notes to Financial Statements Interim 2010 41 5.

Notes to Financial Statements Interim 2010 42 (11) Inventories 1. Categorizing of inventories Inventories include material in transit, raw material, low-valued consumables, work in process, finished goods, materials for consigned processing etc. 2. Pricing of delivering inventory The weighted average method is used to confirm the actual cost of the inventories sending out. 3. Recognition of inventory realizable value and providing of impairment provision At the year end, complete check of the inventories shall be carried out and on the date of balance sheet, the inventories shall be measured whichever is lower in accordance with the cost and the net realizable value. The net realizable value of inventories (finished products, stock commodity, material etc.) held for direct selling in the daily business activity shall be calculated by deducting the estimated sale expense and relevant taxes from the estimated sale price of inventories. The net realizable value of inventories for further processing in the daily business activity shall be calculated by deducting the estimated cost of completion, estimated sale expense and relevant taxes from the estimated sale price of inventories. The net realizable value of inventories held for the execution of sales contracts or labor contracts shall be calculated on the ground of the contract price. If an enterprise holds more inventories than the quantities subscribed in the sales contract, the net realizable value of the excessive part of the Inventories shall be calculated on the ground of the general sales price. The Company shall make provision for loss on decline in value of inventories on the ground of each item of inventories at the year end. For inventories with large quantity and relatively low unit prices, the provision for loss on decline in value of inventories shall be made on the ground of the categories of inventories. When the circumstances of deducting the inventory value have eliminated, the deducted amount should be restored and written back within the original amount of impairment provision provided previously. 4. Inventory system The Company use perpetual inventory system. 5. Amortizing of low-value consumables and packaging materials (1)Low-valued consumables should be amortized in full amount on issuance. (2)Packing materials should be amortized in full amount on issuance. (12) Long-term equity investment 1) Initial measurement (1) The initial cost of long-term equity investment from business acquisition: For the acquisition under the common control, if the consideration of the acquiring enterprise is that it makes payment in cash, transfers non-cash assets, bear its debts, or issues equity securities, it shall, on the date of acquisition, regard the share of the book value of the owner's equity of the acquired enterprise as the initial cost of the long-term equity investment. The difference between the initial cost of the long-term equity investment and the payment borne by the acquiring party shall offset against the capital reserve. If the capital reserve is insufficient to dilute, the retained earnings shall be adjusted. The direct cost for the business combination of the combining party shall, including the expenses for audit, assessment and legal services, be recorded into the profits and losses at the current period.Bengang Steel Plates Co., Ltd. Notes to Financial Statements Interim 2010 43 For the combination not under the common control, the combination costs shall be the fair values, on the acquisition date, of the assets paid, the liabilities incurred or assumed and the equity securities issued by the acquirer in exchange for the control on the acquiree and all relevant direct costs incurred to the acquirer for the business combination. For a business combination realized by two or more transactions of exchange, the combination costs shall be the summation of the costs of all separate transactions. Where any future event that is likely to affect the combination costs is stipulated in the combination contract or agreement, if it is likely to occur and its effects on the combination costs can be measured reliably, the acquirer shall record the said amount into the combination costs. (2) The initial cost of the long-term equity investment other than from business acquisition: The initial cost of a long-term equity investment obtained by making payment in cash shall be the purchase cost which is actually paid. The initial cost of a long-term equity investment obtained on the basis of issuing equity securities shall be the fair value of the equity securities issued. The initial cost of a long-term equity investment of an investor shall be the value stipulated in the investment contract or agreement (minus cash dividend or profit declared but not paid) except the unfair value stipulated in the contract or agreement. If the exchange of non-monetary assets is commercial in nature and the fair values of both the assets received and surrendered can be reliably measured, the fair value of the assets surrendered shall be the basis for the determination of the cost of the assets received, unless there is any exact evidence showing that the fair value of the assets received is more reliable. Where any non-monetary assets transaction does not meet the conditions as prescribed above, the carrying value and relevant payable taxes of the assets surrendered shall be the initial cost of the assets received. The initial cost of a long-term equity investment obtained by Debt Restructuring shall be ascertained on the basis of fair values. Subsequent measurement and profit or loss recognition 2) Subsequent measurement The Company adopts cost method for the long term investment in subsidiary company and shall make an adjustment by employing the equity method when it prepares consolidated financial statements. For a long-term equity investment for which there is no quoted price in the active market and of which the fair value cannot be reliably measured, if the investing enterprise has not joint control or significant influence over the invested entity, the cost method shall be employed in the measurement. A long-term equity investment of the investing enterprise that does joint control or significant influences over the invested entity shall be measured by employing the equity method. If the initial cost of a long-term equity investment is more than the investing enterprise' attributable share of the fair value of the invested entity's identifiable net assets for the investment, the initial cost of the long-term equity investment may not be adjusted. If the initial cost of a long-term equity investment is less than the investing enterprise' attributable share of the fair value of the invested entity's identifiable net assets for the investment, the difference shall be included in the current profits and losses Where any change is made to the owner's equity other than the net profits and losses of the invested entity and if the percentage of the share remains the same, the book value of the long-term equity investment shall be adjusted in accordance with the attributable part calculated as per the proportion of the shares and simultaneously capital reserves (other capital reserves) shall be increased or decreased accordingly.Bengang Steel Plates Co., Ltd. Notes to Financial Statements Interim 2010 44 3) Criteria for the determination of joint control and significant influence over invested enterprise If an investing enterprise has the control over an economic activity in accordance with the contracts and agreements, which does not exist unless the investing parties of the economic activity with an assent on sharing the control power over the relevant important financial and operating decisions, the investing enterprise and other parties are regarded to have joint control over an invested entity If an investing enterprise has the power to participate in making decisions on the financial and operating policies of an enterprise, but not to control or do joint control together with other parties over the formulation of these policies, the investing enterprise is regarded to have significant influences on the invested entity. 4) Impairment test and provision for impairment For a long-term equity investment for which there is no quoted price in the active market and of which the fair value cannot be reliably measured and the investing enterprise does not have significant influence over the invested entity, the impairment shall be determined by the balance between its carrying value and the present value of its future cash flows discounted by the present market rate of return of the similar financial assets. For other long-term equity investment other than goodwill arising from the business combination, if the net realizable value shows the net realizable value of the long term equity investment is less than the book value, the balance shall be recognized as an impairment loss. The Company assesses the goodwill arising from the business combination every year regardless whether there is indication of impairment. Once any impairment loss of long-term equity investment is recognized, it shall not be switched back in the future accounting periods. (13) Investment real estates The term "investment real estates" refers to the real estates held for generating rent and/or capital appreciation. The investment real estates include: (1) The right to use any land which has already been rented; (2) The right to use any land which is held and prepared for transfer after appreciation; and (3) The right to use any building which has already been rented. The Investment real estates shall be measured by the cost model. For the investment real estates measured at cost model, Building for rent shall adopt the same depreciation policy as that of fixed assets and land use right shall adopt the same amortization policy as that of intangible assets Where any evidence shows that there is possible investment real estates impairment, the recoverable amount of the investment real estates shall be estimated. If the recoverable amount of the investment real estates is lower than the book value, the impairment loss shall be recognized accordingly Once any impairment loss of investment real estates is recognized, it shall not be switched back in the future accounting periods (14) Fixed assets 1. Recognition of Fixed assets The term "fixed assets" refers to the tangible assets that simultaneously possess the features as follows:Bengang Steel Plates Co., Ltd. Notes to Financial Statements Interim 2010 45 (1) They are held for the sake of producing commodities, rendering labor service, renting or business management; and (2) Their useful life is in excess of one fiscal year. No fixed asset may be recognized unless it simultaneously meets the conditions as follows: (1) The economic benefits pertinent to the fixed asset are likely to flow into the enterprise; and (2) The cost of the fixed asset can be measured reliably. 2. Fixed assets depreciation Fixed assets are depreciated under the straight line method. The depreciation rate is determined according to the category of assets, the useful life and the expected salvage value. Leased assets are depreciated over the useful life if it is reasonably certain that the ownership of the leased assets will be acquired upon expiry of lease, or over the shorter of lease term and useful life if it is not reasonably certain that the ownership of the leased assets will be acquired upon expiry of lease. Details of classification, depreciation period, salvage value rate and annual depreciation rate are as follows: Classification Depreciation Period Salvage Value Rate (%) Depreciation Rate (%) Plants and Buildings 8-30years 0.00 3.33-12.50 Machinery 4-15 years 3.00 6.47-24.30 Transportation and other 5-18 years 3.00 5.39-19.40 equipments 3. Impairment of fixed assets: The Company shall, on the day of balance sheet, make a judgment on whether there is any sign of possible fixed assets impairment. Where any evidence shows that there is possible fixed assets impairment, the recoverable amount of the fixed assets shall be estimated. The recoverable amount shall be determined in light of the higher one of the net amount of the fair value of the fixed assets minus the disposal expenses and the current value of the expected future cash flow of the fixed assets. Where the measurement result of the recoverable amount indicates that an fixed asset's recoverable amount is lower than its carrying value, the carrying value of the fixed asset shall be recorded down to the recoverable amount, and the reduced amount shall be recognized as the loss of fixed asset impairment and be recorded as the profit or loss for the current period. Simultaneously, a provision for the fixed asset impairment shall be made accordingly. After the loss of fixed asset impairment has been recognized, the depreciation or amortization expenses of the impaired fixed asset shall be adjusted accordingly in the future periods so as to amortize the post-adjustment carrying value of the fixed asset systematically (deducting the expected net salvage value) within the residual service life of the fixed asset. Once any loss of fixed asset impairment is recognized, it shall not be switched back in the future accounting periods. Where there is any evidence indicating a possible impairment of fixed assets, the Company shall, on the basis of single item assets, estimate the recoverable amount. Where it is difficult to do so, it shall determine the recoverable amount of the group assets on the basis of the asset group to which the fixed asset belongs.Bengang Steel Plates Co., Ltd. Notes to Financial Statements Interim 2010 46 4. Recognition criteria for fixed asset leased in by finance lease and its valuation Where a lease satisfies one or more of the following criteria, it shall be recognized as a finance lease: (1) The ownership of the leased asset is transferred to the lessee when the term of lease expires; (2) The lessee has the option to buy the leased asset at a price which is expected to be far lower than the fair value of the leased asset at the date when the option becomes exercisable. (3) The lease term covers the major part of the use life of the leased asset; (4) The present value of the minimum lease payments on the lease beginning date amounts to substantially all of the fair value of the leased asset on the lease beginning date; On the lease beginning date, the Company shall record the lower one of the fair value of the leased asset and the present value of the minimum lease payments on the lease beginning date as the entering value in an account, recognize the amount of the minimum lease payments as the entering value in an account of long-term account payable, and treat the balance between the recorded amount of the leased asset and the long-term account payable as unrecognized financing charges. (15) Construction in process 1. Classification of Construction in Progress Construction in progress is classified and measured by the specific project. 2. The criteria and time of transfer of construction in progress to fixed assets The cost of fixed assets transferred from a construction in progress includes all the necessary expenses incurred for bringing the asset to the expected conditions for use. Construction in progress is transferred to fixed asset when it has reached its working condition for its intended use. In case the final project accounts have not been completed or approved, the asset should be transferred to fixed assets at an estimated value by considering project budget, cost or actual cost of the project and etc., and the deprecation of the said fixed assets shall be provided in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy since it has reached its working condition for its intended use. After the project accounts have been approved, the estimated values should be adjusted based on the actual cost, but those provided deprecation should not be adjusted. 3. Impairment of Construction in progress: The Company shall, on the day of balance sheet, make a judgment on whether there is any sign of possible Construction in progress impairment. If there is evidence indicates that there is possible construction in progress impairment, the recoverable amount of the construction in progress shall determined as higher of the net amount of the fair value of the construction in progress less disposal expenses, and the current value of the expected future cash flow of the construction in progress. Where an fixed asset’s recoverable amount is lower than its carrying value, the carrying value of the fixed asset shall be reduced to the recoverable amount, and the reduced amount shall be recognized as fixed asset impairment loss and be recorded as the profit or loss for the current period. Simultaneously, a provision for the fixed asset impairment shall be made accordingly. After the impairment has been recognized, the depreciation of the impaired fixed asset shall be adjusted accordingly in the future periods so as to depreciate the adjusted carrying value of the fixed asset systematically (deducting the expected salvage value) over the remaining useful life of the fixed asset. Impairment loss on construction in progress shall not be reversed in the future accounting periods. Where there is any evidence indicating a possible impairment of construction in progress, the CompanyBengang Steel Plates Co., Ltd. Notes to Financial Statements Interim 2010 47 shall, on the basis of single item assets, estimate the recoverable amount. If the recoverable amount of the individual asset is undeterminable, the company shall determine the recoverable amount of the asset group to which the fixed asset belongs. (16) Borrowing expenses 1) Principle of the recognition of capitalized borrowing costs Where the borrowing costs incurred to an enterprise can be directly attributable to the acquisition and construction or production of assets eligible for capitalization, it shall be capitalized and recorded into the costs of relevant assets. Other borrowing costs shall be recognized as expenses on the basis of the actual amount incurred, and shall be recorded into the current profits and losses. The term "assets eligible for capitalization" shall refer to the fixed assets, investment real estate, inventories and other assets, of which the acquisition and construction or production may take quite a long time to get ready for its intended use or for sale. The borrowing costs shall not be capitalized unless they simultaneously meet the following requirements: (1) The asset disbursements have already incurred, which shall include cash, transferred non-cash assets or interest bearing debts paid for the acquisition and construction or production activities for preparing assets eligible for capitalization; (2) The borrowing costs has already incurred; and (3) The acquisition and construction or production activities which are necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale have already started. 2) The capitalization period of borrowing costs The capitalization period shall refer to the period from the commencement to the cessation of capitalization of the borrowing costs, excluding the period of suspension of capitalization of the borrowing costs. When the qualified asset under acquisition and construction or production is ready for the intended use or sale, the capitalization of the borrowing costs shall be ceased. Where each part of a qualified asset under acquisition and construction or production is completed separately and is ready for use, the capitalization of the borrowing costs in relation to this part of asset shall be ceased. Where each part of a asset under acquisition and construction or production is completed separately and is ready for use or sale during the continuing construction of other parts, but it can not be used or sold until the asset is entirely completed, the capitalization of the borrowing costs shall be ceased when the asset is completed entirely. 3) The Suspension of capitalization of borrowing costs Where the acquisition and construction or production of a qualified asset is interrupted abnormally and the interruption period lasts for more than 3 months, the capitalization of the borrowing costs shall be suspended. If the interruption is a necessary step for making the qualified asset under acquisition and construction or production ready for the intended use or sale, the capitalization of the borrowing costs shall continue. The borrowing costs incurred during such period shall be recognized as expenses, and shall be recorded into the profits and losses of the current period, till the acquisition and construction or production of the asset restarts. 4) Method of calculating the capitalized amount of borrowing costs For interest expense (minus the income of interests earned on the unused borrowing loans as a deposit in the bank or investment income earned on the loan as a temporary investment) and the ancillary expenseBengang Steel Plates Co., Ltd. Notes to Financial Statements Interim 2010 48 incurred to a specifically borrowed loan, those incurred before a qualified asset under acquisition, construction or production is ready for the intended use or sale shall be capitalized at the incurred amount when they are incurred, and shall be recorded into the costs of the asset eligible for capitalization; The enterprise shall calculate and determine the to-be-capitalized amount of interests on the general borrowing by multiplying the weighted average asset disbursement of the part of the accumulative asset disbursements minus the general borrowing by the capitalization rate of the general borrowing used. The capitalization rate shall be calculated and determined in light of the weighted average interest rate of the general borrowing. Where there is any discount or premium, the amount of discounts or premiums that shall be amortized during each accounting period shall be determined by the real interest rate method, and an adjustment shall be made to the amount of interests in each period. (17) Intangible assets 1. Measurement of Intangible Assets (1). Initial measurement is based on cost upon acquisition. The intangible assets shall be recorded at initial cost. The cost of an intangible asset on acquisition include the purchase price, relevant taxes and other necessary disbursements which may be directly attributable to brining the intangible asset to the conditions for the expected purpose. If the payment for an intangible asset is delayed beyond the normal credit conditions and it is of the financing nature, the cost of the intangible asset shall be determined on the basis of the current value of the purchase price. For intangible assets obtained from debt restructuring as settlement of liabilities from debtors, initial recognition is based on its fair value, and the difference between the debt restructured and the fair value of the intangible assets are recognized in the current profit and loss. For intangible assets obtained from non-monetary transactions with commercial substance, and the fair value of the assets obtained or surrendered can be reliably measured, the initial recognition of the asset obtained is based on the fair value of the asset surrendered, unless there is strong evidence that the fair value of the asset obtained is more reliable. For intangible assets obtained through non-monetary transactions which do not meet the above criteria, the initial recognition is based on the book value of the assets surrendered and the relevant taxes payable. No gain or loss will be recognized. For the intangible assets are obtained in a business combination under the same control, initial recognition is based on the book value of the party being combined. If the intangible assets are obtained in a business combination not under the same control, initial recognition is based on the fair value. For self-developed intangible assets, the costs shall include the cost of material consumed in developing the intangible assets, labor costs, registration cost, and amortization of other patents and royalty in the developing process, the capitalized interest expense and other necessary expenditures directly attributable to intangible assets for the expected purpose. (2). Subsequent Measurement The Company shall analyze and judge the beneficial period of intangible assets upon acquisition. Intangible assets with finite beneficial period shall be amortized under the straight-line method during the period when the intangible asset can bring economic benefits to the enterprise. If it is unable to estimate the beneficial period of the intangible asset, it shall be regarded as an intangible asset with uncertain service life and shall not be amortized.Bengang Steel Plates Co., Ltd. Notes to Financial Statements Interim 2010 49 2. Impairment of intangible Assets For intangible assets with finite beneficial period, impairment test shall be performed at end of the period if there is strong evidence that impairment exists. Impairment test shall be carried out for intangible assets with uncertain beneficial period at each end of the period. Impairment test shall be performed for intangible assets, for which the recoverable amount of the intangible assets shall determined as higher of the net amount of the fair value of the intangible assets less disposal expenses, and the current value of the expected future cash flow of the intangible assets. Where an fixed asset’s recoverable amount is lower than its carrying value, the carrying value of the fixed asset shall be reduced to the recoverable amount, and the reduced amount shall be recognized as fixed asset impairment loss and be recorded as the profit or loss for the current period. Simultaneously, a provision for the fixed asset impairment shall be made accordingly. After the impairment has been recognized, the depreciation of the impaired fixed asset shall be adjusted accordingly in the future periods so as to depreciate the adjusted carrying value of the fixed asset systematically (deducting the expected salvage value) over the remaining useful life of the fixed asset. Impairment loss on intangible assets shall not be reversed in the future accounting periods. Where there is any evidence indicating a possible impairment of intangible assets, the Company shall, on the basis of single item assets, estimate the recoverable amount. If the recoverable amount of the individual asset is undeterminable, the company shall determine the recoverable amount of the asset group to which the fixed asset belongs. 3. Classification criteria for internal research phase and development phase Research phase refers to the phase of creative and planned investigation to acquire and study to acquire and understand new scientific or technological knowledge. Development phase refers to the phase during which the result of research phase or other knowledge is applied into certain projects or designs for the manufacturing of new or substantially improved material, device and product. The expenditure of research phase of internal research and development projects shall be recorded into the profit or loss of the current period. 4. Criteria of capitalization of development expenditure Expenditures during the development phase of internal research and development projects shall be recognized as intangible assets when they meet all the following criteria: (1) It is feasible technically to complete the intangible assets for use or sale; (2) The intention to complete and use or sell the intangible assets is present; (3) The method of which the intangible assets generate economic benefits shall be proved, including being able to prove that there is a potential market for the products manufactured by applying the intangible assets or there is a potential market for the intangible assets itself or the intangible assets will be used internally; (4) Sufficient technical, financial and other resources to complete the development of the intangible assets, and ability to use or sell the intangible assets and (5) The development expenditures of the intangible assets can be reliably measured. (18) Contingent liabilities When the Company is involved in litigation, guarantees provided for the debts of other enterprises, lossBengang Steel Plates Co., Ltd. Notes to Financial Statements Interim 2010 50 contract, restructuring and these events will result in future assets transfer or rendering of services and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably, the contingent liabilities shall be recognized. 1. Recognition of contingent liabilities The obligation pertinent to a Contingency shall be recognized as an estimated debt when the following conditions are satisfied simultaneously: (1) That obligation is a current obligation of the enterprise; (2) It is likely to cause any economic benefit to flow out of the enterprise as a result of performance of the obligation; and (3) The amount of the obligation can be measured in a reliable way. 2. Measurement of contingent liabilities The estimated debts shall be initially measured in accordance with the best estimate of the necessary expenses for the performance of the current obligation. To determine the best estimate, an enterprise shall take into full consideration of the risks, uncertainty, time value of money, and other factors pertinent to the Contingencies. If the time value of money is of great significance, the best estimate shall be determined after discounting the relevant future outflow of cash. The best estimate shall be conducted in accordance with the following situations, respectively: If there is a sequent range for the necessary expenses and if all the outcomes within this range are equally likely to occur, the best estimate shall be determined in accordance with the middle estimate within the range. If there is not a sequent range for the necessary expenses and if the outcomes within this range are not equally likely to occur, the best estimate shall be determined as follows: (1)If the Contingencies concern a single item, it shall be determined in the light of the most likely outcome. (2) If the Contingencies concern two or more items, the best estimate should be calculated and determined in accordance with all possible outcomes and the relevant probabilities. When all or some of the expenses necessary for the liquidation of an estimated debts of an enterprise is expected to be compensated by a third party, the compensation should be separately recognized as an asset only when it is virtually certain that the reimbursement will be obtained. The amount recognized for the reimbursement should not exceed the book value of the estimated debts. (19) Revenue 1. Recognition Criteria for the Revenue from sale of goods The Company has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods; and retained neither continuing managerial involvement which usually relates to the ownership nor exerts effective control over the goods sold. The relevant amount of revenue can be measured reliably, the economic benefits related to the transaction will flow into the enterprise; and the relevant costs incurred or to be incurred can be measured reliably. Revenue from the sale of goods may be recognized. 2. Recognition Criteria for the Revenue from alienating of Assets Use Rights When it is probable that economic benefits in relation to the transaction will flow into the enterprise; and the amount of revenues can be measured reliably. The Company shall ascertain the amount of revenues from the transfer of Assets Use Right based on the following circumstances respectively: (1) Interest income shall be calculated based on the duration of which the Company's cash is used byBengang Steel Plates Co., Ltd. Notes to Financial Statements Interim 2010 51 others and the actual interest rate; or (2) Royalty revenue shall be calculated based on the period and method of charging as stipulated in the relevant contract or agreement. 3. Recognition Criteria for the Revenue from providing Labor Services and Construction Contracts under percentage of completion method Revenue from providing labor services are recognized under the percentage of completion method if the outcome of the labor service provision transaction can be reliably measured. Percentage completed is determined by measurement of work completed. Total revenue from providing of labor services is determined based on the received or receivable amount stipulated in the contract or agreement, unless the received or receivable amount as stipulated in the contract or agreement is unfair. The Company shall, on the date of the balance sheet, ascertain the current revenue from providing labor services by multiplying the total amount of revenues from providing labor services with the percentage completion, less cumulative revenues recognized in the previous accounting periods. At the same time, the enterprise shall recognize current cost of labor services by multiplying the total estimated cost of providing of labor services with percentage completion less cumulative costs recognized in the previous accounting periods. If the result of a transaction concerning the providing of labor services cannot be reliably measured at the balance sheet date, it shall be measured as follows: (1) If the cost of labor services incurred is expected to be compensated, the revenue from the providing of labor services shall be recognized to the extent of the cost of labor services incurred, and the cost of labor services shall be recognized; or (2) If the cost of labor services incurred is not expected to compensate, the cost incurred should be recognized in the current profit and loss, and no revenue from the providing of labor services shall be recognized. (20) Government Subsidies 1. Types of Government subsidies A government subsidy means the monetary or non-monetary assets obtained free of charge by the Company from the government. Government subsidies consist of the government subsidies pertinent to assets and government subsidies pertinent to income. 2. Accounting treatment The government subsidies pertinent to fixed assets and intangible assets shall be recognized as deferred income and equally recognized over the useful lives of the relevant assets as non operating income; The government subsidies pertinent to incomes to subsidize future expenses shall be recognized as deferred income and transferred to non operating income in the period during which the expenses subsidized is recognized. Government subsidies to subsidize past expenses or losses shall be recognized in the income statement in the period during which the subsidy is received. (21) Deferred income tax liabilities and assets 1. Recognition of deferred income tax assets The Company shall recognize the deferred income tax assets arising from a deductible temporary difference to the extent that it is probable that the deductible temporary differences will be utilized toBengang Steel Plates Co., Ltd.

Recognition of deferred income tax liabilities The Company shall recognize the accrued income tax of the taxable temporary differences arising from current and prior periods as a deferred income tax liability. Recognition of deferred income tax liabilities are exclusive of goodwill and temporary differences arising from transaction not resulted from business combinations and such transaction will affect neither accounting profit nor taxable income of the period during which it occurs. (22) Operating lease and finance lease 1. Accounting treatment of Operating lease (1).The rents paid for operating leases shall be recorded in the profits and losses of the current period by using the straight-line method over each period of the lease term. The initial direct costs paid by the Company shall be recorded into the profits and losses of the current period If the lessor has shouldered any expense related to the lease which should have been borne by the Company, the Company shall deduct these expenses from the total rental expense and the remaining rental expense shall be allocated to each period during the lease term (2). The rents collected from operating leases shall be recorded in the profits and losses of the current period by using the straight-line method over each period of the whole lease term in which free lease period is included. The initial direct costs paid by the Company shall be recorded into the profits and losses of the current period. The initial direct costs shall be capitalized if it is material, and be allocated to each period as per the basis for rental revenue recognition. If the Company has shouldered any expense related to the lease which should have been borne by the lessee, the company shall deduct these expenses from the total rental revenue and the remaining rental revenue shall be allocated to each period during the lease term. 2. Accounting treatment of Finance lease (1). Leased in asset On the lease beginning date, a lessee shall record the lower one of the fair value of the leased asset and the present value of the minimum lease payments on the lease beginning date as the entering value in an account, recognize the amount of the minimum lease payments as the entering value in an account of long-term account payable, and treat the balance between the recorded amount of the leased asset and the long-term account payable as unrecognized financing charges. The lessee shall adopt the effective interest rate method to calculate and recognize the financing charge in the current period. The unrecognized financing charge shall be amortized to each period during the lease term. (2). Leased out asset On the beginning date of the lease term, the balance between the sums of the financing lease values receivable and the unguaranteed residual value, and the sum of their present values shall be recognized as unrealized financing income. The unrealized financing income shall be allocated to each period during the lease term. The initial direct costs directly attributable to the leased item shall be included in the initial measurement of financing lease values receivable and reduce the profit recognized during the lease period.

(38) Calculation formula of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share 1. Calculation processes The above figures are the results calculated by the following formulas: Net income on asset, fully diluted Fully diluted net income on asset = P÷E In which: P = net profit attributable to common shareholders of the Company, or net profit attributable to common shareholders after deducting of non-recurring gain/loss E = Net asset attributable to the common share holders at end of year. “Net profit attributable to common shareholders” is not including gain/loss of minority shareholders; “Net profit attributable to common shareholders after deducting of non-recurring gain/loss” is based on the consolidated net profit after deducting of minority shareholders’ gain/loss, and deducting of the share of common shareholders of the Company of non-recurring gain/loss of the parent company (with considering of influences of income tax) and non-recurring gain/loss of subsidiaries (with considering of influence of income tax); “net asset attributable to the common shareholders end end of year” is not including the share of minority shareholders’ equity. Net income on asset, weighted Weighted average income on net asset ratio =P/(E0 + NP÷2 + Ei×Mi÷M0 - Ej×Mj÷M0± Ek×Mk÷M0) In which: P is respectively corresponding to the net profit attributable to the common shareholders of the Company, and the net profit attributable to the common shareholders after deducting of non-recurring gain/loss; NP = net profit attributable to common shareholders E0 = net asset attributable to the common shareholders at beginning of year;Bengang Steel Plates Co., Ltd. Notes to Financial Statements Interim 2010 86 Ei = newly added net asset attributable to common share holders due to placing of new shares or transferred from debt in the report term Ej = net asset attributable to common share holders decreased due to repurchasing or cash dividend M0 = number of months of the report term Mi = number of months from the next month of the newly added asset to the end of report term; Mj = number of months from the next month of the newly deducted net asset to the end of report term; Ek = change of net asset due to other trade or event Mk = number of months from the next month of other change of net asset to the end of report term. Basic earnings per share Basic earnings per share = P÷S S= S0 + S1 + Si×Mi÷M0 - Sj×Mj÷M0-Sk In which: P = net profit attributable to common shareholders of the Company, or net profit attributable to common shareholders after deducting of non-recurring gain/loss S = weighted average of common shares issued in the market S0 = total of capital shares at beginning of year; S1 = increased shares due to capitalizing of common reserves or dividend Si = shares increased due to placing of new shares or transferred from debt in the report term Sj = shares decreased due to actions such as repurchasing in the report term SK = the amount of shares reduced M0 = number of months of the report term Mi = number of months from month next to the share increasing to the end of report term Mj = number of months from month next to the share decreasing to the end of report term Diluted gains per share ② Diluted earning per share=[P+(Diluting prospective common share interest recognized as expense -transfer expense)×(1-income tax rate)]/(S0 + S1 + Si×Mi÷M0 - Sj×Mj÷M0—Sk+ weighted average of common shares increased by term of subscription certificates, share future options, or convertible bonds) In which: P = net profit attributable to common shareholders of the Company, or net profit attributable to common shareholders after deducting of non-recurring gain/loss. At calculating of diluted earnings per share, the Company has considered the influences of the entire dilute potential common shares, until the diluted earnings per share had reached the minimum level.
