1 Safa Rashtchy, Senior Research Analyst , Aaron M. Kessler, Sr Research Analyst , Reason for Report: Industry Overview Related Companies: Share Price: HRAY 9.76 TOMO NTES SINA SOHU EBAY LTON 7.02 YHOO SNDA Technology The China Analyst: Wireless Sector Becoming Increasingly Positive; Time To Buy KEY POINTS: The Upshot: We believe the wireless sector is continuing to become more stable and we are hearing increasingly positive buzz about the sector. We also believe May 17, the national telecommunication day, may bring another catalyst for the sector with positive announcement by China Mobile. We would be buyers of TOMO, HRAY, and LTON, especially given the low valuations, which create highly favorable risk-reward profile.

China Stocks This Week - Update on stock performances. Company Updates - Our latest thoughts on our Chinese coverage stocks The China Analyst is our weekly report on the Chinese Internet and technology market. Our commentaries are based on data we collect daily in China using our staff and consultants as well as industry contacts in Mainland China and Hong Kong. Our goal is not to summarize news but to analyze the most important developments in Internet, online games, wireless services, economy, technology, consumer behavior, corporate activities, and government regulations and to discuss how these trends impact both our existing coverage companies in China as well as the broader, long-term development of the Chinese Internet market Risks - Include the volatility of wireless revenues, investor sentiment toward a young and new sector, the potential of government intervention, and the potential of decline or volatility of economic growth. The unique corporate structure of the Chinese Internet companies also poses additional risk factors for investors. Page 1 of 7
2 Industry Commentary We are continuing to hear positive buzz and reports on various aspect of the wireless sector in China. As we noted in our last China Analyst (April 8), the opening of prepaid subscribers to have access to 2.5 g services is underway (already done in Shanghai province) and may even be accelerated. May 17 th Potential Catalyst. We also believe that May 17 th, the national telecommunication day in China, may bring other significant and positive news announcements from China Mobile that could include the opening of the prepaid subscribers to 2.5g services in all provinces. The expectations of the announcement of 3G license is also building up in China and we believe will act as a positive catalyst for the sector. Expect Solid Quarter Results. We believe that despite the MMS mailbox issue, the wireless companies will all report a solid quarter, inline to above expectations, once again marketing growth in an environment that is characterized as very difficult and unpredictable. This market condition that has created so much volatility for the sector, we believe, is nearing an end and we are very likely to have much more stable environment in the second half of Combine this with the fact that the wireless companies are trading at very low multiples of 5x-7x next years' EBITDA, nearly half of the multiple for the whole sector. In short, we believe it is time to buy the wireless companies as the risk-reward profile now heavily favor upside in the stocks. We would be active buyers of HRAY, TOMO, and LTON as the key wireless players with significant or increasing presence in 2.5 g services. Company And Industry News Sohu Acquires Go2Map Inc. Go2Map, an online mapping service provider in China, was acquired by Sohu for $9.3 million, along with $2.5 million in potential additional pay if Go2Map reaches specific financial targets in the next two years. Sohu can combine its search and portal capabilities with Go2Map's detailed location-based information to create a viable online map service. We believe that Sohu will integrate Go2Map's functionality with Sogou, Sohu's flagship search engine. Go2Map currently covers 200 Chinese cities, and the acquisition fits well with Sohu's focus on expanding its content offerings. Open Beta for WoW Set to Launch April 29. The Chinese launch of open beta testing for World of Warcraft (WoW) has been slated for April 29. The9 held an announcement party in conjunction with the news, and a software pack for the game was made available to consumers for about $3.50, or 29 RMB on April 10. Up to this point, 3D MMORPG-style games have not fared well in the Chinese marketplace, but with the overwhelming response to WoW in other countries, The9 is hoping that such international success translates well in the Chinese market. Economic News China's FDI Increases By 9.5% in Q1. The Ministry of Commerce announced that overseas investment increased by 9.5% in 1Q05, accounting for approximately $13.4 billion. Foreign direct investment was led by companies such as Avon Products Inc. and Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., both of which have expanded operations and investments in China recently. Considering the government's attempts to slow down investments and expansion of state-owned enterprises (SOEs), which might lead to an overall economic slowdown in consumption and job opportunities, FDI will help to counteract this trend (Shenzhen Daily). IMF Report Predicts Economic Slowdown. The International Monetary Fund released its most recent World Economic Outlook Report, which states that China's GDP growth rate will be 8.5% this year, lower than last year's rate. The IMF identifies the quality of investment as being a potential long-term problem for the Chinese economy (Xinhua). Other Notable Events In China Tensions Mount Between China and Japan. The past three weekends in China have been filled with angry and violent protests against Japan. Anti-Japanese demonstrations have sprung up in China over Japan's possible permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council, as well as Japanese textbooks that allegedly gloss over wartime atrocities committed against the Chinese people. While Chinese protesters demand an apology from the Japanese government over the World War II violations, the Japanese Prime Minister requested an apology from China for the protests. The Japanese Prime Minister, Junichiro Koizumi, formally apologized at an Page 2 of 7

China Stocks This Week In the past week, as of Thursday's market close, the Piper Jaffray China Internet Index was up by 4.7%, while the NASDAQ was slightly up by 0.8%. The strong week was fueled by solid earnings announcements by Internet companies in the past few days, as well as promising macroeconomic news. For the full year to date, the PJC China Internet Index has declined by 28.2%, while the NASDAQ is down by 9.8% for the full year thus far.

4 Company Updates Shanda (SNDA, Outperform). We believe Shanda has a very strong position in the online games market and is well positioned to expand beyond this, with its potential acquisition strategy, as well as development of new areas. We anticipate a strong quarter with solid upside. NetEase (NTES, Outperform). We would be active buyers of NetEase at current levels, as we believe NTES provides one of the best valuation and secular growth opportunities. The company's current games are doing very well and NetEase has a solid portfolio of new games for 2005 and beyond. We expect strong earnings, driven by Fantasy and other games. SINA (SINA, Market Perform). We believe Sina's biggest asset, its brand and reach within China, will continue to command a high premium to the market. As such, the company is likely to continue to be the an attractive potential acquisition candidate. We expect an in line quarter. Sohu.com (SOHU, Market Perform). We anticipate in line to possibly some upside for earnings, with the potential upside coming from advertising revenues. New initiatives might be the key to reignite interest in the stock. Ctrip (CTRP, Outperform). Once again, we would expect another solid earnings performance for Ctrip, as it maintains its market share lead in the Chinese online travel market. Tom Online (TOMO, Outperform). We believe that Tom Online will report earnings in line, with the possibility of some upside. Since the wireless sector is in the early stages of recovery, we would expect Tom to have strong guidance. 51Job (JOBS, Outperform). The Q4 miss, a big surprise, is not necessarily indicative of structural issues for JOBS or the job market in China; nonetheless, the stock's high valuation makes it still vulnerable to further decline. We anticipate an in line quarter, with a better performance, some potential for upside, as well as stronger Q2 guidance. Hurray! (HRAY, Outperform). We would expect a solid quarter with strong guidance. It is one of the best pure-play WAP providers. Linktone (LTON, Outperform). We expect Linktone to report earnings in line to possibly some upside. Guidance should be strong as the wireless sector is picking up. Page 4 of 7
