Explanation of Responses:
( 1)  Gift to Dragon Fund Management, LLC ("Dragon Fund").
( 2)  These shares were inadvertently reported in note 2 to the reporting person's Form 4 filed on January 17, 2007 (the "January 17, 2007 Form 4") as a gift by the reporting person to Lotus Capital Fund. These shares should have been reported as a gift to Dragon Fund. Lotus Capital Trust (not Lotus Capital Fund as incorrectly referred to in the January 17, 2007 Form 4), is an irrevocable trust established by the reporting person for the benefit of the reporting person's wife, Lei Li. Lotus Capital Trust is a non-voting member of Dragon Fund. Based on the incorrect information included in the January 17, 2007 Form 4, the nature of the reporting person's beneficial ownership of these securities was incorrectly reported on the Form 4's filed by the reporting person on December 7, 2007 and December 12, 2007.
( 3)  These shares were inadvertently reported in note 3 to the January 17, 2007 Form 4 as a gift by the reporting person to Tiger Fund Trust, an irrevocable trust established by the reporting person for the benefit of the reporting person's daughter. These shares should have been reported as a gift to Dragon Fund. Tiger Fund Trust is a non-voting member of Dragon Fund. Based on the incorrect information included in the January 17, 2007 Form 4, the nature of the reporting person's beneficial ownership of these securities was incorrectly reported on the Form 4's filed by the reporting person on December 7, 2007 and December 12, 2007.
( 4)  The reporting person owns 1% of the membership interests in Dragon Fund which ownership interest has 50% of the voting control of this entity. The reporting person's spouse, Lei Li: (i) owns 1% of the membership interests in Dragon Fund which ownership interest has 50% of the voting control of this entity, (ii) owns 3% of the non-voting interests in Dragon Fund; and (iii) is co-trustee of Lotus Capital Trust and Tiger Fund Trust which collectively own 95% of the non-voting membership interests in Dragon Fund. The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of the Company's securities owned by Dragon Fund except to the extent of his pecuniary interest in Dragon Fund and this filing should not be construed as an admission that the reporting person is the beneficial owner of these securities.
( 5)  Does not include 4,000,000 shares of common stock owned by Dragon Fund.
