2. GRANTING THE CALL OPTION

     requirement, to grant Jia Luo an exclusive call option whereby, while the
     Agreement is in effect and upon the fulfillment of all the conditions
     stipulated in Section 2.2, Jia Luo or its designee shall be entitled to
     purchase, at its sole discretion, in the manner and at the price prescribed
     in the Agreement, through a single or multiple transactions, the SCM shares

     in accordance with the Agreement; Jia Luo also agrees to accept the call
     option in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement.

2.2  The parties acknowledge: upon the fulfillment of the following conditions,
     while the Agreement is in effect, Jia Luo or its designee shall be entitled
     but not obligated to exercise, at any time (the timing is entirely at the
     discretion of Jia Luo), the call option with Waigaoqiao and/or Waigaoqiao
     Group:

     (a)  Jia Luo and/or its designee decides to purchase from Waigaoqiao and/or

<PAGE>

3.1  In the event Jia Luo chooses to exercise the call option as prescribed in
     Section 2 and the China law then in effect permits Jia Luo and/or its
     designee to be the transferee of all the SCM shares, Jia Luo may, at its
     sole discretion, exercise the call option once or in multiple times whereby
     Jia Luo and/or its designee shall be the transferee of all the SCM shares
     from Waigaoqiao and/or Waigaoqiao Group; in the event the China law then in
     effect permits Jia Luo and/or its designee to be the transferee of only a
     portion of the SCM shares, Jia Luo shall, at its sole discretion, exercise
     the call option once or in multiple times whereby Jia Luo and/or its
     designee shall be the transferee of SCM shares up to the upper limit of
     shareholding permitted under the China law then in effect("upper limit of
     shareholding"); in the latter scenario, Jia Luo has the right to continue
     the exercise of the call option to the extent and as far as the China law
     gradually lifts the upper limit of shareholding until eventually all the
     SCM shares have been obtained.

3.2  When exercising the call option as prescribed in Section 3.1, Jia Luo may,
     at its sole discretion, choose the number of SCM shares that the exercise
     of the call option shall require of Waigaoqiao and Waigaoqiao Group to
     transfer to Jia Luo and/or its designee; Waigaoqiao shall transfer and
     shall ensure that Waigaoqiao Group also transfers to Jia Luo and/or its
     designee the number of SCM shares as specified by Jia Luo. In return, for
     the SCM shares transferred upon each exercise of the call option, Jia Luo
     and/or its designee shall pay to Waigaoqiao and/or Waigaoqiao Group the
     price of share transfer as stipulated in Section 4.1 of the Agreement.

3.3  Upon each exercise of the call option, Jia Luo may decide to be the
     transferee of the SCM shares or it may designate a third party to be the
     transferee of the SCM shares.

3.4  Each time it decides to exercise the call option, Jia Luo shall issue an
     exercise notice to Waigaoqiao and/or Waigaoqiao Group; upon receiving the
     exercise notice and in compliance with the requirements of the China law
     and the provisions of the Agreement, Waigaoqiao shall proceed immediately
     and shall ensure that Waigaoqiao Group acts likewise to transfer to Jia Luo
     and/or its designee, all at once and as soon as practically possible, the
     number of SCM shares specified in the exercise notice.

3.5  Upon Jia Luo issuing an exercise notice, Waigaoqiao hereby undertakes to:

     (1)  Take all authorized corporate measures to ensure that Waigaoqiao and
          Waigaoqiao Group approve the transfer to Jia Luo the SCM shares
          specified in the exercise notice and, to the extent permitted under
          the law, obtain all other permits and approvals (if necessary) as may
          be required by the China law then in effect;

     (2)  Ensure that the top decision-making body within SCM passes resolutions
          and take any other necessary actions to approve the transfer by
          Waigaoqiao and/or Waigaoqiao Group to Jia Luo and/or its designee of
          the SCM shares specified in the exercise notice;

     (3)  Proceed itself and ensure that Waigaoqiao Group acts likewise, at the
          request of Jia Luo and in compliance with the China law, to provide to
          Jia Luo the necessary support and cooperation including but not
          limited to conducting the asset appraisals with regard to the transfer
          (if then required), effecting all such procedures as public
          announcements, government approvals, registrations and filings,
          executing all such


                                      8/21

<PAGE>

          relevant legal documents as the share transfer agreement with Jia Luo
          and/or its designee, in order that the SCM shares specified in the
          exercise notice are legally and validly transferred to Jia Luo and/or
          its designee.

3.6  Waigaoqiao hereby commits itself to this undertaking: to implement the
     transactions contemplated in the Agreement, any other legal documents that
     Waiguoqiao and Waigaoqiao Group will sign pursuant to the Agreement
     (including but not limited to the share transfer agreement stipulated in
     Section 3.5) shall not contradict the provisions of the Agreement or that
     impose any other restrictions other than those already provided in the
     Agreement.

4. SHARE TRANSFER PRICE AND PAYMENT

4.1  In accordance with the Agreement, to purchase the SCM shares held by
     Waigaoqiao and Waigaoqiao Group, Jia Luo shall pay the share transfer price
     as defined below (contingent on the situation that applies):

     (a)  In the event that the China law does not require an asset appraisal of
          the SCM shares and/or SCM assets,

          Total share transfer price = RMB 15,500,000;

          If Jia Luo decides to purchase only a portion of the SCM shares, then
          the share transfer price for purchasing the SCM shares each time shall
          be determined using the following formula:

          Price for each share transfer = equivalent of RMB 15,500,000 x
          (proposed number of SCM shares to be purchased / the total number of
          SCM shares)

     (b)  In the event that the China's law requires an asset appraisal of the
          SCM shares and/or SCM assets and that the appraised value is no more
          than RMB 15,500,000,

          Total share transfer price = RMB 15,500,000;

          If Jia Luo decides to purchase only a portion of the SCM shares, then
          the share transfer price for purchasing the SCM shares each time shall
          be determined using the following formula:

          Price for each share transfer = equivalent of RMB 15,500,000 x
          (proposed number of SCM shares to be purchased / the total number of
          SCM shares)


                                      9/21

     (c)  Unless the parties agreed otherwise, in the event that the China's law
          requires an asset appraisal of the SCM shares and/or SCM assets and
          that the appraised value is more than RMB 15,500,000,

          Total share transfer price = Total appraised value of SCM assets

          If Jia Luo decides to purchase only a portion of the SCM shares, then
          the share transfer price for purchasing the SCM shares each time shall
          be determined using the following formula:

          Price for each share transfer = total appraised value of SCM assets x
          (proposed number of SCM shares to be purchased / the total number of
          SCM shares).

4.2  Jia Luo may decide, at its sole discretion and to the extent permissible
     under the law, to deliver to Waigaoqiao the share transfer price in cash in
     the amount of the share transfer price and/or having a third party release
     Waigaoqiao from an indebtedness owed to this said third party and that is
     equal in value to the share transfer price.
