         In order to confirm the ownership of the interests, assets,

         Related Services under Agreement One shall be transferred to Tianjin
         Mobile. However, due to the time limit and the enormous amount
         involved, the transfer of certain contracts may have not been approved
         by the other party/parties thereto (the "Non-Transferred Contracts").
         For such Non-Transferred Contracts, the Parties hereby agree and
         confirm as follows:

         (1)      As of the Effective Date (as defined in Agreement One), the
                  rights and liabilities, as well as the gains and losses of the
                  Service Company generated from the Non-Transferred Contracts
                  shall be owned or assumed by Tianjin Mobile (unless otherwise
                  stipulated in this Agreement ), notwithstanding the fact that
                  such Non-Transferred Contracts are still held by and performed
                  in the name of the Service Company. The Service Company agrees
                  to act as the trustee of Tianjin Mobile to receive or hold any
                  interests generated from the Non-Transferred Contracts
                  (including but not limited to certain goods and loans) on
                  behalf of Tianjin Mobile, and that such interests are owned by
                  Tianjin Mobile. Upon demand, the Service Company shall deliver
                  such interests to Tianjin Mobile;

         (2)      The Service Company shall exercise or perform the rights and
                  liabilities under the Non-Transferred Contracts strictly in
                  accordance with the instructions given by Tianjin Mobile from
                  time to time, and shall not amend any terms of the
                  Non-Transferred Contracts or terminate the same without
                  Tianjin Mobile's prior written consent thereto;

         (3)      The reasonable expenses incurred by the Service Company for
                  the purpose of performing the obligations under paragraph 3(1)
                  above shall be reimbursed by Tianjin Mobile, except expenses
                  incurred as a result of negligence or fault on the part of, or
                  other reasons caused by, the Service Company;

         (4)      If, as a result of the Service Company's negligence, fault or
                  other reasons caused by the Service Company in connection with
                  its holding or performing the Non-Transferred Contracts in its
                  name and on behalf of Tianjin Mobile under this Agreement,
                  Tianjin Mobile sustains any losses therefrom (including but
                  not limited to legal action expenses and damages ), the
                  Service Company shall sufficiently compensate Tianjin Mobile
                  for such losses in a timely manner; and

         (5)      If there arises such a need that the rights of Tianjin Mobile
                  under the Non-Transferred Contracts (including the rights to
                  initiate legal proceedings or arbitration, or to take other
                  necessary actions) be exercised by the Service Company in its
                  name, the Service Company shall assist Tianjin Mobile by
                  exercising such rights in the Service Company's name.

4.       The Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with
         the laws of PRC.

5.       The Agreement shall be executed in Chinese.

6.       The Agreement shall come into effect upon the execution by the
         authorized representative of the Parties.
