BY WHICH
GFR PHARMACEUTICALS INC.
(a Nevada corporation)
SHALL ACQUIRE

(a corporation organized under the laws of the Peoples' Republic of China)

ADJUSTMENTS: lead This Plan of Exchange (“Agreement” or “Plan of Exchange”) is made and dated as of this 26th day of June, 2006, and is intended to supersede all previous oral or written agreements, if any, between the parties, with respect to its subject matter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is subject to, and shall be interpreted together with the Letter of Intent, dated June 6, 2006 ("LOI"), and the Escrow Agreement, dated June 20, 2006 ("Escrow Agreement"). This Agreement anticipates that extensive due diligence shall have been performed by both parties.
 
I. RECITALS
1. The Parties to this Agreement:

(1.1) GFR Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("GFRP"), Suite 11405 - 201A Street, Maple Ridge, British Columbia V2X 0Y3, a Nevada corporation.

2. The Capital of the Parties:

(2.1) The Capital of GFRP consists of 100,000,000 shares of common voting stock of $0.001 par value authorized, of which 1,079,940 shares are issued and outstanding.

(2.2) The Capital of New Century consists of RMB 30,000,000 in registered capital (US$1=RMB 8), which for the purposes of this Agreement, is referred to as “common stock” or “capital stock”.

3. Transaction Descriptive Summary: GFRP and it's directors and shareholders will approve the acquisition of New Century prior to Closing and the shareholders of New Century (“New Century Shareholders”) have consented to the acquisition of New Century by GFRP, a publicly traded company. GFRP would acquire a 90+% interest in New Century in exchange for 40,000,000 new shares of GFRP to New Century Shareholders (the “Share Exchange”). In addition, New Century and/or the New Century Shareholders would acquire 200,000 freely transferable common shares of GFRP from Mr. Pierce for a payment by New Century and/or the New Century Shareholders of an amount equal to $500,000, less related expenses (the “Share Purchase”). The distributions of payments will be made by New Century to Mr. Pierce in accordance with the Escrow Agreement. The above purchase and issuance will give New Century a 'controlling interest' in GFRP representing approximately 95% of the issued and outstanding shares. The transaction will not immediately close but shall be conditioned upon (1) the delivery into escrow of the 200,000 shares from Mr. Pierce, (2) the delivery into escrow of the 40,000,000 shares for the benefit of New Century Shareholders, (3) the absence of material liabilities in GFRP as defined by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, and (4) the vend out of the three subsidiaries prior to Closing, along with the conditions precedent to closing listed in this agreement.

The parties contemplate that any change in the majority of the Board of Directors will occur after the closing.

5. Nevada compliance. Articles of Exchange are required to be filed by Nevada law as the last act to make the acquisition final and effective under Nevada law.

6. Audited Financial Statements. Certain filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, such as a Current Report on Form 8-K, require audited financial statements of New Century to be filed with the SEC within 71 days of the initial Form 8-K filing with respect to the Share Exchange. In connection with GFRP’s filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K/A within 71 days after the Share Exchange, as it relates to that transaction, audited financial statements of New Century will be filed with the SEC in accordance with Form 8-K. New Century has agreed to provide audited financial statements prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP to GFRP within 71 days upon the closing of the Share Exchange.
