ratio + circulation tax ratio) = settlement price. The price

figures used for these calculations must first be agreed upon by
Party B before they are used to settle accounts.

the projected quantity multiplied by the unit price. The account
will be closed at the end of each month (there will be a refund
for any overpayment or a supplemental payment for any deficiency).
c. If Party B meets financial difficulties, Party A may subtract from
its own product payment.
14. Period:
a. According to Article 39 of the Sino-Foreign Joint Venture
Contract, this agreement is valid for 25 years, and can be
extended as required.
b. During the joint venture period, without Party A's permission,
Party B can neither arbitrarily change the
5
usage of materials and services, nor change or add facilities. If
the above changes are required, Party B must ask Party A's
permission first, and will be responsible for the expenses.
15. Responsibilities:
a. Party A cannot arbitrarily stop supplying the above materials and
services (except in situations beyond reasonable control). If
Party B stops production because of this, Party A will be
responsible for any loss.

affect its PTA quality.
16. This agreement is an indivisible part of the Sino-Foreign Joint
Venture Contract, and has the same legal effect.
17. This agreement is signed and implemented on February 9, 1996.
