The breakdown of the aggregate shares to be issued to the Purchasers is hereto attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A:

Shares to be issued to the Purchasers in the aggregate=RMB0.156 billion / 6.7858 (the middle price of US Dollar against RMB on the issuing day of the Shares) / USD10.101 (the average price of the closing price of the CGA shares for ten consecutive trading days immediately before the date of execution of Share Transfer Contract)

The Transferee shall pay 2,275,931 shares of CGA to the Transferors as of the execution date of Share Transfer Contract. However, the 2,275,931 shares of CGA shall be mutually escrowed by CGA and Transferee, and shall be paid to Transferors in the following ways:
