                                     PART I

[Item 1]                            BUSINESS

GENERAL

         The Company was incorporated as Magenta Corp. on January 15, 1986, in
the State of Nevada.  The Company was formed to acquire businesses that would
provide a profit to the Company.  The Company had no operating business until
control of it was acquired in December, 1994, by the former shareholders of
Billion Luck, who exchanged all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital
stock of Billion Luck for 10,800,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock.  As
a result of the acquisition, the former shareholders of Billion Luck acquired
90% of the issued and outstanding shares of the then outstanding Common Stock
of the Company and the Company became the owner of all the outstanding shares
of capital stock of Billion Luck.

         Billion Luck was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on
December 14, 1993.  It conducts its activities through the Operating
Subsidiaries, which it controls through its 56% interest in HARC.  HARC was
established in Hainan Province, the People's Republic of China, by Billion
Luck, Guilinyang Farm, and the Farming Bureau.  Pursuant to an approval
document dated March 16, 1997, issued by the Hainan Provincial Securities
Management Office, the name of HARC was approved to be changed from "Hainan
Agricultural Resources Company Limited" to "Hainan Zhongwei Agricultural
Resources Company Limited."  A new business license, valid until June 28, 2000,
dated March 26, 1997, effecting the new name was obtained from the Hainan
Provincial Industrial and Commercial Administration Bureau.

         HARC is a Chinese company incorporated on June 28, 1994, with a
registered capital of Rmb100 million (US$12.05 million).  Billion Luck made a
cash contribution of Rmb56 million (US$6.75 million) to purchase a 56% interest
in HARC.  The remaining interests in HARC were acquired by Guilinyang Farm (5%)
for a cash contribution of Rmb5 million (US$0.60 million) and by the Farming
Bureau (39%) through the contribution of its interests in two of its
subsidiaries, First Supply and Second Supply, which were valued at Rmb39
million (US$4.70 million) (based upon a valuation report prepared by the Hainan
Accounting Office, a PRC Certified Public Accountant, as of December 31, 1992).
Pursuant to an agreement dated January 31, 1994, between Billion Luck,
Guilinyang Farm, and the Farming Bureau, the parties thereto agreed to
establish HARC to act as the holding company of First Supply and Second Supply.

         The Company, through HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries, First Supply
and Second Supply, purchases natural rubber produced by the 92 farms on the
island of Hainan in the PRC, which are controlled by the Farming Bureau.  In
1995, according to data published in China Statistical Yearbook 1996 and
Statistical Yearbook of Hainan 1996, Hainan Province accounted for
approximately 61% of the domestic production of natural rubber in the PRC, of
which approximately 78% of that 61% is from the Hainan State Farms and
approximately 22% is from non-state farms.  Accordingly, the Hainan State Farms
control 48% of the PRC's domestic output of natural rubber.  The Operating
Subsidiaries market and distribute the rubber to customers throughout the PRC,
such as tire manufacturers, rubber processing plants, and import and export
companies.  These customers include state-owned and non-state-owned
enterprises.  Because of the price risk associated with certain firm
commitments for the purchase of natural rubber, the Company, through HARC and
the Operating Subsidiaries, enters into natural rubber commodities futures
contracts to hedge the risk.  As opportunities arise, HARC and the Operating
Subsidiaries also have a team of futures experts to manage and enter into
natural rubber commodities futures contracts that are not specific hedges, in
anticipation of a rise or fall in the price of natural rubber, based on their
knowledge of the supply and demand situation with respect to natural rubber in
the PRC.  In addition, the Operating Subsidiaries procure, for the Farming
Bureau, the Hainan State Farms and other affiliated customers, many types of
production materials, such as building materials, automobiles and automobile
parts, farm equipment, fuel, and chemicals, as well as for other customers
unaffiliated with the Farming Bureau.  In 1996, HARC and the Operating
Subsidiaries have diversified into trading of other agricultural products, like
coffee beans.  First Supply and Second Supply were originally established as
state-owned enterprises in the PRC by the Farming Bureau.

</TABLE>


         ORGANIZATIONAL AND MANAGEMENT STRUCTURE OF HARC

         The assets of HARC consist primarily of the Operating Subsidiaries,
First Supply and Second Supply, which together are divided into eight trading
and servicing divisions.  During the fourth quarter of 1996, HARC undertook a
restructuring plan in order to rationalize and streamline its business
operations and assets.  The terms of the restructuring are set forth in a
Shareholders' Agreement on Business Restructuring among the Farming Bureau,
Guilinyang Farm and Billion Luck, and an Assets and Staff Transfer Agreement
among the Farming Bureau, HARC, First Supply and Second Supply, both of which
were effective on October 1, 1996, and are included as exhibits hereto and
incorporated herein by reference.

         The purpose of the restructuring plan is to control management
overhead and improve efficiency in order to enhance long-term benefits to the
Company.  The plan should result in the reduction of duplicative business
divisions and associated management overhead, the elimination of excessive
labor headcounts and redundant positions, the restructuring of HARC's asset
base and the sale of non-core assets to improve liquidity ratios.  The various
former trading and servicing divisions of the Operating Subsidiaries have now
been reduced to only a few principal trading and servicing divisions.  Cash
management and policy making will become more centralized, ensuring that
capital resources can be allocated to trading divisions more efficiently and
effectively.  A simplified management structure should also enhance the
efficiency of HARC's management reporting system.  The Company's management
believes that HARC's selling and administrative expenses will be substantially
reduced following the full implementation of the restructuring.  Savings
resulting from reduced administrative expenses, staff costs and related costs,
as well as proceeds from the sale of non-core assets, will improve the
Company's liquidity and allow it to pursue additional investment opportunities.

         The business of HARC is principally divided into the natural rubber
trade and materials trade.  Each trading or servicing division is a profit
center or cost center and has its own accounting function.  Every quarter, each
division submits its financial statements to First Supply or Second Supply for
consolidation.  Those companies, in turn, submit the combined accounts to HARC
for consolidation.  The General Manager of each division accounts for its
results to the General Manager of First Supply or Second Supply, who, in turn,
accounts for the overall results to the board of directors of HARC.

         HARC has a two-tier structure with a board of directors and a
supervisory board.  The board of directors is responsible for the day-to-day
management of and all major decisions relating to HARC (except decisions that





                                      -6-

may be made by HARC's shareholders during a general meeting of the
shareholders) and, as of December 31, 1996, was made up of 11 members, of which
five were nominated by the Farming Bureau and six were nominated by Billion
Luck.  The Chairman of HARC was nominated by the Farming Bureau, and the
Vice-Chairman was nominated by Billion Luck.  The General Managers of First
Supply and Second Supply are also members of the board of directors of HARC.
The General Manager and the Chief Finance Officer of HARC are also members of
the board.  The General Manager of HARC was nominated by the Farming Bureau,
and the Chief Finance Officer was nominated by Billion Luck.

         The supervisory board is responsible for supervising the board of
directors and the senior management of HARC in order to prevent the abuse of
rights and infringement of the interests of HARC and its shareholders and
employees.  Among other responsibilities, members of the supervisory board
attend meetings of the board of directors and observe HARC's managers to ensure
that their acts do not contravene any laws or regulations or HARC's articles of
association or the resolutions of HARC's shareholders in meetings thereof.  As
of December 31, 1996, the supervisory board was made up of five members, two of
which were nominated by Billion Luck and three of which were nominated by the
Farming Bureau.  Two of the three members nominated by the Farming Bureau were
elected by the workers of HARC.

         ACTIVITIES OF HARC AND THE OPERATING SUBSIDIARIES

         The Operating Subsidiaries function as affiliated trading partners of
the Farming Bureau and the Hainan State Farms.  They purchase raw natural
rubber (both dried and latex) from the Hainan State Farms and resell the raw
natural rubber to customers throughout the PRC.  The Operating Subsidiaries
also sell production materials, including building materials, fertilizers,
fuels, chemicals, farm equipment and machinery, automobiles, automobile parts
and electrical appliances to the Hainan State Farms, the Farming Bureau, and
other unaffiliated customers, and they trade natural rubber commodities futures
to hedge the price risk associated with certain firm commitments for the
purchase of natural rubber.  HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries also enter
into natural rubber commodities futures contracts which are not specific
hedges.  See Financial Statements and Notes included therein attached as
Appendix A hereto.

         In fulfilling their role as trading partners of the Farming Bureau,
the Operating Subsidiaries serve as a sales outlet for the raw natural rubber
produced by the Hainan State Farms and procure production materials for the





                                      -7-
<PAGE>   8

Farming Bureau and the Hainan State Farms.  Before 1994, the Farming Bureau
generally established the selling price of natural rubber in order to allow the
Operating Subsidiaries to earn a pre-determined profit margin.  Commencing in
1994, however, the Farming Bureau generally ceased establishing the selling
price of natural rubber, and instead allowed the Operating Subsidiaries to
determine the selling price according to market conditions, subject to a
minimum gross profit margin of 3.5% (before the purchase discount, as discussed
hereinbelow) to be earned by the Operating Subsidiaries on natural rubber
purchased from the Hainan State Farms as set forth in the Sale and Purchase
Agreement (as defined hereinbelow).

         With respect to the procurement of materials and supplies, the
Operating Subsidiaries generally do not maintain significant levels of
inventory, but instead locate suppliers and the necessary products upon the
receipt of orders.  Management of the Operating Subsidiaries has determined
that this policy reduces holding costs and minimizes exposure to price
fluctuations.  However, in anticipating favorable market conditions or with
respect to certain common items, the Operating Subsidiaries may maintain
inventory levels in these limited circumstances sufficient to satisfy estimated
demand for one to three months.  With respect to the distribution of natural
rubber, due to the seasonal nature of rubber production, the Operating
Subsidiaries stockpile a certain amount of rubber inventory during the peak
production season for sales in those periods with no rubber output (usually the
first quarter of each year).

         Pursuant to a Long-Term Sale and Purchase Agreement dated November 5,
1994 (the "Sale and Purchase Agreement"), among the Farming Bureau, HARC and
the Operating Subsidiaries, the Farming Bureau agreed to direct the Hainan
State Farms to sell to HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries on a priority basis,
and HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries have agreed to purchase from the Hainan
State Farms raw natural rubber for sale under the same terms and conditions as
are offered to other purchasers.  If HARC or the Operating Subsidiaries are
offered the same quantity and same price for natural rubber from a Hainan State
Farm and a non-state farm, HARC or the Operating Subsidiaries, as the case may
be, must purchase from the Hainan State Farm.  If the price offered by the
Hainan State Farm is higher than that from a non-state farm, HARC or the
Operating Subsidiaries, as the case may be, may purchase from the non-state
farm.  Otherwise, there is no condition requiring the purchase of any
particular quantity of raw natural rubber from the Hainan State Farms.  The
Sale and Purchase Agreement has a term of 15 years and, subject to applicable
law, may not be terminated except upon the agreement of the parties.

         GENERAL

         The main business of the Operating Subsidiaries is the purchase and
sale of natural rubber produced in Hainan.  The Operating Subsidiaries are the
primary distributors of the natural rubber produced by the Hainan State Farms,
which constitute the largest natural rubber production base in China.  Hainan
State Farms' natural rubber output was approximately 200,000 tons and 182,000
tons in 1995 and 1996, respectively (a sales value of approximately Rmb2.6
billion (US$313 million) and Rmb2.4 billion (US$289 million) for 1995 and 1996,
respectively).  According to the Farming Bureau's Ninth Five-Year Plan
(1995-2000), it is anticipated that the aggregate rubber output of the Hainan
State Farms for the years 1995 to 2000 will be 1,100,000 tons, and that by the
year 2000 the annual rubber output will reach 230,000 tons, with a sales value
of approximately Rmb3 billion (US$361 million) at the 1996 average price level.
It is also anticipated that by the year 2010, the annual rubber output of the
Hainan State Farms will reach 250,000 tons, with a sales value of approximately
Rmb3.3 billion (US$398 million) at the 1996 average price level.

         In addition, the Operating Subsidiaries engage in the trading of
production materials and supplies and related commodities, such as building and
construction materials; fuels and chemicals, including fertilizers and
pesticides; and other products, including farm equipment and machinery,
automobiles, automobile parts, and electrical appliances; which are connected
with the agricultural production in Hainan.  The foregoing materials are key
elements in the continuation of the Hainan State Farms' rubber production.  In
1996, HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries diversified into trading of other
agricultural products like coffee beans.

         All of the Operating Subsidiaries' sourcing and trading activities are
divided into (1) State Plan allocations, and (2) free market activities.  With
respect to State Plan allocations, the Central Government determines the price
and quantity of the materials and supplies sold to designated end users, and
the Operating Subsidiaries must strictly follow the allocation.  However, the
scale of State Plan Allocations is decreasing gradually and currently accounts
for only 20% to 30% of the fertilizers supplied by the Operating Subsidiaries.
All of the other production materials and natural rubber supplied by the
Operating Subsidiaries are provided through free market sales.  The price set
forth in the State Plan is such that any profit derived from the sourcing and
trading of fertilizers, if any, is comparatively lower than that derived from
free market sales.  With respect to natural rubber and related products,
although they are provided through free market sales, the Operating
Subsidiaries are guaranteed a minimum gross profit margin of 3.5% (before
purchase discount, as discussed hereinbelow) by the Farming Bureau.  To the
extent that the gross profit for a particular year is less than this rate, the
Farming Bureau is obligated to pay to HARC or the Operating Subsidiaries the
shortfall.

         The combined net income before taxes, minority interests and
reorganization expenses of HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries was Rmb43.76
million (US$5.27 million) in 1994, Rmb48.55 million (US$5.85 million) in 1995
and Rmb92.43 million (US$11.14 million) in 1996.

         RUBBER DISTRIBUTION

         The Company, through HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries, engages in
the marketing and distribution of natural rubber and its complementary products
and materials produced by the Hainan State Farms.  Natural rubber occupies a
position of strategic importance in the PRC, comparable to the iron, steel,
coal, and oil industries.  Industrial rubber consists of synthetic rubber and
natural rubber, which have similar uses but different characteristics, so the
two are not completely interchangeable.  Both types of rubber can be used for
making tires, but heavy duty tires, such as for planes and for some motor
vehicles, must be made of natural rubber.





                                      -9-
<PAGE>   10


         Natural rubber can only be planted in limited geographical areas in
the world.  Today, most of the rubber plantations in the world are in Southeast
and Southern Asia, which in 1995 accounted for 94% of the world's natural
rubber output.  According to China Statistical Yearbook 1996, China ranks 5th
in the world in terms of natural rubber output.  China's output accounted for
6.10%, 6.70% and 7.43% of the world's natural rubber output in 1993, 1994 and
1995, respectively.  With its geographical location and humid tropical climate,
Hainan province is the most suitable area for planting rubber trees in China,
and Hainan has become the single most important production base of natural
rubber in China, according to Statistical Yearbook of Hainan 1996.

                 (Source: China Statistical Yearbook 1996)
</TABLE> 

         Since January 1, 1952, the Farming Bureau, which controls
approximately one quarter of the land area in Hainan, has developed the largest
natural rubber production base in China with plantations covering approximately
3.6 million mu (approximately 620,470 acres or 968 square miles) in 1995,
according to the Statistical Yearbook of Hainan 1996.

         The natural rubber output of the Farming Bureau and the Hainan State
Farms was approximately 182,000 tons and 200,000 tons in 1994 and 1995,
respectively, accounting for approximately 49% and 48% of the total domestic
output in China in 1994 and 1995, respectively.  The natural rubber output of
the Hainan State Farms in 1996 was approximately 182,000 tons.  According to
the Farming Bureau's expansion plans and production capacity, it is anticipated
that the aggregate natural rubber produced by the Hainan State Farms in the
years 1995 to 2000 will be 1,100,000 tons, and that annual rubber output will
reach 230,000 tons in the year 2000 and 250,000 tons in the year 2010.

         The Operating Subsidiaries function as affiliated trading partners of
the Farming Bureau and the Hainan State Farms.  They purchase raw natural
rubber (both dried and latex) from the Hainan State Farms and resell the raw
natural rubber to customers throughout the PRC.  As described above, before
1994, the Farming Bureau generally established the selling price of natural
rubber, based upon the then existing market conditions, in order to allow the
Operating Subsidiaries to earn a pre-determined gross profit margin.
Commencing in 1994, however, the Farming Bureau generally ceased establishing
the selling price of natural rubber, and instead allowed the Operating
Subsidiaries to determine the selling price according to market conditions,
subject to a minimum gross profit margin of 3.5% (before purchase discount, as
discussed hereinbelow).

         The natural rubber market in 1996 was not as favorable as in 1995.  In
1995, the unit price of Chinese domestic natural rubber reached a historical
high of approximately Rmb16,700 (US$2,012) per ton, with an average price for
that year of approximately Rmb13,800 (US$1,663) per ton.  The high price was
caused by strong domestic demand for natural rubber and a high rubber price in
the international market.  The rubber price in the international market varies
according to the demand by major rubber consuming countries (the largest being
the United States, followed by China and Japan) and the supply from the major
rubber producing countries (such as Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia).  In
1996, due to weakened rubber consumption, especially in Japan and Korea,
coupled with increased supply from certain major rubber producers in Asia, the
rubber price in the international market dropped significantly.





                                      -10-
<PAGE>   11

         Major Asian rubber exporting countries, such as Thailand and
Indonesia, have targeted China (the world's second largest consumer of rubber)
for the sale of their natural rubber.  These exporting countries have offered
China many preferential policies to stimulate export sales of natural rubber,
including longer credit terms, sales discounts and delivery in advance of
payment.  China imported approximately 550,000 tons of natural rubber in 1996,
compared to 320,000 tons in 1995, representing an increase of 72%.  Most of
these imports were clustered in the fourth quarter of the 1996.  This large
influx of natural rubber, coupled with the weak domestic rubber consuming
market in China, has caused the domestic rubber price in 1996 to drop from
approximately Rmb15,500 (US$1,867) per ton at the beginning of the year to
Rmb11,200 (US$1,349) per ton by the end of the year.

         The Company's gross profit margin on the distribution of natural
rubber has not been seriously affected by the fluctuation of the domestic
rubber price because (i) the Company has entered into rubber futures contracts
to hedge against the risk of adverse price movement of natural rubber; (ii)
under the Long-Term Supply and Purchase Agreement between the Operating
Subsidiaries and the Farming Bureau, a minimum gross profit on distribution of
natural rubber of 3.5% was guaranteed by the Farming Bureau; and (iii) purchase
discounts were received from the farms in return for the payment of a rubber
purchase deposit.  The Company also maintains a team of experts to monitor the
rubber futures market in China.  As opportunities arise, HARC and the Operating
Subsidiaries also enter into natural rubber futures contracts that are not
specific hedges, in anticipation of a rise or fall in the price of natural
rubber.

         SUPPLIERS

         HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries purchase natural rubber from the
92 farms comprising the Hainan State Farms, with the value of purchases
totalling approximately Rmb1,532 million (US$185 million) in 1994, Rmb1,653
million (US$199 million) in 1995 and Rmb1,438 million (US$173 million) in 1996.
The single largest supplier within the Hainan State Farms accounted for
approximately 3% (Rmb49 million, US$5.9 million) of such purchases in 1994, 3%
(Rmb57 million, US$6.9 million) in 1995 and 3% (RMB44.4 million, US$5.3
million) in 1996.  No single farm accounted for more than 5% of the total
purchases of natural rubber in any of the years 1994, 1995 or 1996, but all
supplier farms are controlled under PRC law by the Farming Bureau.  The top
five supplier farms accounted for approximately 14% (Rmb218 million, US$26.3
million) of such purchases in 1994, 13% (Rmb223 million, US$26.9 million) in
1995 and 12% (Rmb168 million, US$20.2 million) in 1996.  Purchases are
principally made in Renminbi on an open account basis payable within 30 days,
or on a "cash on delivery" basis.  As a majority of their purchases are made in
Renminbi, HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries have a limited exposure to
fluctuations in exchange rates.

         Pursuant to the Sale and Purchase Agreement, the Farming Bureau agreed
to direct the Hainan State Farms to sell to HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries
on a priority basis, and HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries have agreed to
purchase from the Hainan State Farms raw natural rubber for sale under the same
terms and conditions as are offered to other purchasers.  If HARC or the
Operating Subsidiaries are offered the same quantity and same price for natural
rubber from a Hainan State Farm and a non-state farm, HARC or the Operating
Subsidiaries, as the case may be, must purchase from the Hainan State Farm.  If
the price offered by the Hainan State Farm is higher than that offered by a
non-state farm, HARC or the Operating Subsidiaries, as the case may be, may
purchase from the non-state farm.  Otherwise, there is no condition requiring
the purchase of any particular quantity of raw natural rubber from the Hainan
State Farms.  The Sale and Purchase Agreement has a term of 15 years and,
subject to applicable law, may not be terminated except upon the agreement of
the parties.  The Sale and Purchase Agreement will expire on November 5, 2009.

         Pursuant to the Agreement on Rubber Purchase Deposits dated March 30,
1995, the Farming Bureau guarantees the supply of a minimum of 120,000 tons
(the "Guaranteed Quantity") of natural rubber for each of the next three years.
The Operating Subsidiaries are not obligated to purchase the Guaranteed
Quantity.  In consideration of this guarantee, the Operating Subsidiaries have
maintained a purchase deposit on a rolling basis equivalent to 15% of the
Guaranteed Quantity multiplied by the average market price of natural rubber
for the previous quarter.  In return, a purchase discount is offered to the
Operating Subsidiaries for the purchase of natural rubber from the Hainan State
Farms.

         MARKETING

         The Hainan State Farms are the dominant suppliers of raw natural
rubber and natural rubber products in China.  In 1995, they accounted for
approximately 48% of the annual output of raw natural rubber.  Because of the
market position of the Hainan State Farms, the Operating Subsidiaries are the
largest distributors of raw natural rubber and natural rubber products in
China.





                                      -11-
<PAGE>   12

         HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries maintain a strong sales and
marketing force consisting of 28 persons in the natural rubber business.  The
Operating Subsidiaries' sales and marketing personnel make regular visits to
customers and to the Hainan State Farms to maintain contacts and monitor
requirements.  Currently, all sales and distribution of raw natural rubber and
natural rubber products occur within the PRC.  The business operations of HARC
and the Operating Subsidiaries are conducted solely within the PRC;
consequently, the Company is solely dependent upon trade in the PRC.  The
Company does not currently engage in any export trade from the PRC.

         CUSTOMERS

         Sales of natural rubber for 1994, 1995 and 1996 were Rmb1,580 million
(US$190 million), Rmb1,778 million (US$214 million) and RMB1,519 million
(US$183 million), respectively.  The five largest customers for rubber, in the
aggregate, accounted for approximately 9%, 19% and 27% of the total revenue
derived from rubber sales for 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively.  The single
largest customer accounted for approximately 4%, 7% and 11% of such revenue for
1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively.

         For the year ended December 31, 1996, HARC and the Operating
Subsidiaries had a total of approximately 490 customers for natural rubber and
natural rubber products with only one customer accounting for more than 5% of
total sales of such products.  This customer was Shanghai Tire Group Company,
which accounted for 11% of total sales of natural rubber in 1996.  No other
single customer accounted for more than 5% of total sales of natural rubber in
1996.  Total sales for the year ended December 31, 1996, were Rmb1,519 million
(US$183 million).

         SEASONALITY

         The geographic and climatic conditions in Hainan are such that natural
rubber production has high and low seasons.  Generally, there is no rubber
harvest from January to March.  The high season commences in April.  Sales of
natural rubber and natural rubber products generally grow in the second quarter
and reach the peak in the third and fourth quarters due primarily to the
increased production of natural rubber.  All sales in the first quarter of a
year relate to inventory maintained from the inventory of the prior year.  The
high season ends in November.  Sales in the last two quarters accounted for
80%, 71% and 61% of the total sales for 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively.

         DISTRIBUTION

         The Operating Subsidiaries have their own warehouse facilities and
transportation fleet for both natural rubber and materials consisting of 71
warehouses with a total area of 36,684 square meters, 73 trucks and 239
workers.  Some of the natural rubber is shipped to customers by sea freight
from the port of Haikou, Hainan, to other destination ports within the PRC.
The Operating Subsidiaries also transport rubber from the Hainan State Farms to
the port of Zhangjiang, PRC, which operates as a distribution center from where
the natural rubber is delivered to customers by rail to destinations within the
PRC.  Some of the natural rubber is also delivered locally in Hainan.

         WORKING CAPITAL ITEMS

         The Operating Subsidiaries generally grant their purchasers the right
to return substandard natural rubber, as determined by laboratories recognized
by both parties.  Sales returns or losses borne by the Operating Subsidiaries
are reimbursed by the farm that supplied the substandard rubber.  These sales
returns could potentially impact the working capital levels of the Operating
Subsidiaries if such returns were significant; however, in the past such sales
returns have been insignificant.

         Prior to 1994, sales of rubber were made principally on an open
account basis payable within 30 days.  Starting in 1994, because of increased
rubber demand, a significant portion of such sales are made on a "cash on
delivery" basis.  The Operating Subsidiaries have been working to recover aged
accounts receivable while establishing policies to tighten credit control.
Some of these policies require new customers to place deposits of 5% of the
invoiced value of a purchase upon signing a sales contract or require full
payment on or before delivery for small new customers.  In addition, no sales
are made to those customers with long outstanding balances with the Operating
Subsidiaries until past due accounts receivable are settled.

         Following the tightening of the credit control policy, customers are
now required to pay the balance of the invoiced value (after deducting the 5%
deposit paid) on delivery.  However, in order to maintain good customer
relationships, extended payment terms of no more than one month may be granted
to certain customers based on their credit and payment history with the
Operating Subsidiaries.





                                      -12-
<PAGE>   13

         Due to the seasonal nature of rubber production, the Operating
Subsidiaries stockpile a certain amount of rubber inventory during the peak
production season for sales in those periods with no rubber output.

         Prior to July, 1992, the Farming Bureau was responsible for financing
the Hainan State Farms during the winter months when there was no rubber
production.  In July, 1992, the Operating Subsidiaries began providing
financing to the Hainan State Farms (primarily for working capital and to
purchase materials and supplies).  Accordingly, the Operating Subsidiaries
obtained short term bank loans, which were generally secured by guarantees of
the Farming Bureau, to provide such financing.  When a rubber purchase was made
by an Operating Subsidiary from a farm which had an outstanding balance in favor
of HARC or the Operating Subsidiary from a prior financing advance, it was
customary practice to credit the purchase price of the rubber against the
balance on the financing account of such farm.  Neither HARC nor the Operating
Subsidiaries are obligated to provide any future financing advances to any
Hainan State Farms.  Pursuant to the Agreement on Rubber Purchase Deposits dated
March 30, 1995, the Farming Bureau guarantees the supply of a minimum of 120,000
tons (the "Guaranteed Quantity") of natural rubber for each of the next three
years.  The Operating Subsidiaries are not obligated to purchase the Guaranteed
Quantity.  In consideration of this guarantee, the Operating Subsidiaries have
maintained a purchase deposit on a rolling basis equivalent to 15% of the
Guaranteed Quantity multiplied by the average market price of natural rubber for
the previous quarter.  (See Financial Statements and Notes included therein
attached as Appendix A hereto.)

         Pursuant to the Shareholders' Agreement on Business Restructuring and
the Assets and Staff Transfer Agreement, both effective as of October 1, 1996
(the "Restructuring Agreements"), HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries agreed to
assign to the Farming Bureau the amounts due from the farms and the affiliates
of the Farming Bureau as of September 30, 1996, and the Farming Bureau agreed
to assume the obligations under the short term bank loans, as part of the
corporate restructuring plan.  The assignment of amounts due from farms and
affiliates of the Farming Bureau was effective on October 1, 1996, and the
assumption of short term bank loans will be effective upon approval of such
banks, but no later than March 31, 1997.  Under the Restructuring Agreements,
the Farming Bureau had to obtain the banks' approval of the assumptions.  As of
September 30, 1996, the aggregate amount due from the farms and affiliates of
the Farming Bureau amounted to approximately Rmb274 million (US$33 million), and
the short term bank loans amounted to approximately Rmb293 million (US$35
million).  According to the Restructuring Agreements, the Farming Bureau will be
responsible for the payment of interest incurred on the bank loans after
September 30, 1996.

         COMPETITORS

         There are several companies competing for business in the domestic
natural rubber industry in the PRC.  Among the Company's competitors are other
major state-owned rubber producers under the control of different farming
bureaus, with no direct relationship to the Hainan Farming Bureau.  The market
share of these rubber producers are generally significantly less than that of
the Farming Bureau.  There are also certain small, non-state owned rubber
producers located in the provinces of Hainan, Guangdong, Yunnan, Guangxi, and
Fujian.  However, the quantities produced by these non-state owned farms and
individuals are relatively insignificant.

                 (Source:  China Statistical Yearbook 1996)
</TABLE> 
         According to the China Statistical Yearbook 1996, the rubber output
from Hainan Province was 260,384 tons in 1995.  According to the Statistical
Yearbook of Hainan 1996, the rubber output from the Hainan State Farms was
202,488 tons in 1995.  Consequently, the rubber output from non-state owned
enterprises in Hainan Province accounted for approximately 57,896 tons,
representing 22% of the total natural rubber output of Hainan Province in 1995.
The natural rubber production by other domestic rubber producers is limited by
the area of land suitable for rubber planting in the region.  Due to the
specific tropical climatic conditions required for rubber cultivation, the
number of rubber producers is limited and no new domestic rubber production is 
expected to enter the market.  Thus, the competition in the industry may be 
determined by the acquisition of land suitable for rubber cultivation.  Due to





                                      -13-
<PAGE>   14

the favorable climatic conditions in Hainan for rubber plantations and the fact
that there is still land available in Hainan that the Farming Bureau can
develop into rubber plantations, the Farming Bureau will likely remain as
China's largest natural rubber producer for the foreseeable future.  Domestic
consumption for natural rubber has far exceeded domestic supply, and it is
believed that this situation will continue.  According to the China Statistical
Yearbook 1996 and statistics provided by the International Natural Rubber
Organization, in 1995 the domestic rubber output of the PRC and the rubber
consumption of the PRC were 424,000 tons and 744,000 tons, respectively.
Accordingly, the rubber output of the Farming Bureau in 1995 accounted for
approximately 48% of the total domestic output of natural rubber and satisfied
approximately 27% of the domestic consumption.  The Company believes that the
Operating Subsidiaries' affiliation with the Farming Bureau will continue to
provide an important competitive advantage for the Operating Subsidiaries.

         ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

         Management does not believe that there are any material requirements
under PRC environmental law or regulations applicable to the Operating
Subsidiaries which could have a material adverse effect on the capital
expenditures, including capital expenditures required in order to comply with
environmental laws and regulations, in the rubber distribution segment of the
business of the Operating Subsidiaries.


         PROCUREMENT OF MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES AND DISTRIBUTION OF OTHER 
         AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS

         The Company, through the Operating Subsidiaries, also engages in the
procurement of materials and supplies, such as building and construction
materials, fuels and chemicals, including fertilizers and pesticides; and other
products, including farm equipment and machinery, automobiles, automobile
parts, and electrical appliances; which are connected with the agricultural
production in Hainan.  These sourcing and procurement activities were conducted
primarily for the Hainan State Farms.  The percentage of such sales to
non-affiliates, which has become significant in recent years, was 56% in 1994,
41% in 1995 and 33% in 1996.  The decrease of such sales to non-affiliates in
1995 and 1996 was due to the slow down of property and automobile markets (such
customers are non-affiliates) due to the PRC Government's austerity measures.
Sales of fertilizers, pesticides, etc., which are mainly sold to farms
(affiliates) remained strong.  Therefore, there were fewer sales to
non-affiliates.  In 1996, HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries also expanded
into trading of other agricultural products like coffee beans.

         The sourcing and procurement activities generally commence upon the
receipt by an Operating Subsidiary of an order to obtain certain of the various
materials set forth above.  Upon such receipt, the Operating Subsidiary
identifies potential suppliers for the required production materials and
obtains quotations from the various suppliers.  In order to obtain the most
favorable terms, the Operating Subsidiary will negotiate with many different
suppliers, with pricing and quality being the main points of negotiation.

         The Operating Subsidiaries generally do not maintain significant
levels of inventory, but instead locate suppliers and the necessary products
upon the receipt of orders.  Management of the Operating Subsidiaries has
determined that this policy reduces holding costs and minimizes exposure to
price fluctuations.  However, in anticipating favorable market conditions or
with respect to certain common items, the Operating Subsidiaries may maintain
inventory levels sufficient to satisfy estimated demand for one to three
months.

         Pursuant to the Sale and Purchase Agreement, the Farming Bureau agreed
to direct the Hainan State Farms to purchase all of their requirements of
production materials and other commodities offered by the Operating
Subsidiaries and HARC under the same terms and conditions as are offered by
other suppliers.  In the case of production material and other commodities, a
Hainan State Farm requests a price quote for a specified quantity of a
particular item from HARC or the Operating Subsidiaries.  Upon receiving the
price quote, the Hainan State Farm can obtain quotes from other suppliers based
on the same quantity of the requested item.  The Hainan State Farm must inform
HARC or the Operating Subsidiaries, as the case may be, of the amounts of the
other quotes and, if any of the quotes are lower, HARC or the Operating
Subsidiaries have the right to lower their quote to the level of the competing
quote.  In the event that the Operating Subsidiaries are unable to profitably
match the terms offered to the Hainan State Farms by sources other than the
Operating Subsidiaries, the Operating Subsidiaries will be required to sell to
the Hainan State Farms at a loss or forebear from making such sales.  If HARC
or an Operating Subsidiary matches the competing quote based upon the same
quantity of the item requested, the Hainan State Farm must purchase the item
from HARC or the applicable Operating Subsidiary.  Otherwise, the Hainan State
Farm can purchase the item from the competing supplier.  The Sale and Purchase
Agreement has a term of 15 years and, subject to applicable law, may not be
terminated except upon the agreement of the parties.  The Sale and Purchase
Agreement will expire on November 5, 2009.

         During 1996, HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries purchased production
materials and other agricultural products from a total of approximately 408
suppliers.  The value of the total purchases of production materials and other
agricultural products was approximately Rmb130 million (US$15.7 million) in
1994, Rmb135 million (US$16.3 million) in 1995 and Rmb251 million (US$30.2
million) in 1996.  The single largest supplier accounted for approximately 13%
(Rmb17 million, US$2.0 million) of such purchases in 1994, and 11% (Rmb15
million, US$1.8 million) in 1995 and 16% (Rmb39 million, US$4.7 million) in
1996.  The two largest suppliers accounted for 13% and 8% of such purchases, 
respectively, in 1994, the three largest suppliers accounted for 11%, 7% and 6%,
respectively, of such purchases in 1995 and the four largest suppliers accounted
for 16%, 12%, 6% and 6%, respectively, of such purchases in 1996 (and no other
suppliers accounted for more than 5%). The top five suppliers accounted for
approximately 29% (Rmb38 million, US$4.6 million) of such purchases in 1994, 26%
(Rmb35 million, US$4.2 million) in 1995 and 44% (Rmb111 million, US$13.4
million) in 1996.  Purchases are principally made in Renminbi on an open account
basis payable within 30 to 90 days.  As a majority of the purchases are made in
Renminbi, HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries have limited exposure to
fluctuations in exchange rates.

         MARKETING

         In accordance with the terms of the Sale and Purchase Agreement, HARC
and the Operating Subsidiaries are the principal suppliers of production
materials to the Farming Bureau and the 92 farms comprising the Hainan State
Farms.  The Operating Subsidiaries maintain a sales and marketing team of 94
persons for the procurement business.  The sales and marketing team makes
regular visits to the Farming Bureau, the Hainan State Farms and unaffiliated
purchasers in order to maintain contacts and monitor requirements.

         Currently, all activities of HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries with
respect to production materials and commodities occur within the PRC.  The
business operations of HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries are conducted solely
within the PRC; consequently, the Company is solely dependent upon trade in the
PRC.  The Company does not currently engage in any export trade from the PRC.

         CUSTOMERS

         Sales of production materials and agricultural products by HARC and
the Operating Subsidiaries for the years 1994, 1995 and 1996 totalled
approximately Rmb174 million (US$21 million), Rmb179 million (US$22 million)
and Rmb308 million (US$37.1 million), respectively.  The five largest customers
for production materials and other agricultural products accounted for
approximately 9%, 6% and 37% of the total revenue derived from sales of
production materials and agricultural products for 1994, 1995 and 1996,
respectively.  The single largest customer accounted for less than 5% of such
revenue for each of 1994 and 1995.  The two largest customers accounted for 12%
and 9%, respectively, of such revenue in 1996 (and no other customers accounted
for 5% or more).  HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries have a broad customer
base and are not dependent upon any single customer for sales.  However,
aggregate sales to affiliates of the Farming Bureau accounted for 44%, 59% and
67% of the total revenue derived from sales of production materials and
agricultural products for 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively.

         SEASONALITY

         The seasonal fluctuations experienced by the Operating Subsidiaries in
the production materials procurement segment are significantly less severe than
those experienced in connection with the rubber production operations.
However, to the extent that the Operating Subsidiaries may buy goods and
materials related to the rubber industry from suppliers, but sell such goods
and materials on credit to Hainan State Farms, repayment may be affected by the
seasonality of rubber production.

         WORKING CAPITAL ITEMS

         Sales by HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries are principally made in
Renminbi.  The Operating Subsidiaries have been working to recover aged
accounts receivable while establishing policies to tighten credit control.  In
the past, most of the sales were made on an open account basis payable within
30 days.  The new policies require "cash on delivery" terms for small or new
customers.  In addition, no sales are made to those customers with long
outstanding balances with the Operating Subsidiaries until past due accounts
receivable are settled.  However, in order to maintain good customer
relationships, extended payment terms of one to two weeks may be granted to
certain customers based on their credit and payment history with the Operating
Subsidiaries.  No extended payment terms are granted for more than one month.
For sales to the Hainan State Farms, more flexible payment terms may be allowed
depending on credit history and regularity of purchase orders.  Such payment
terms





                                      -15-
<PAGE>   16

may include an open account basis or the netting of the sales value of
materials against the cost of natural rubber purchases by the Operating
Subsidiaries.

         COMPETITORS

         Generally, as a result of the Sale and Purchase Agreement, HARC and
the Operating Subsidiaries have no major competitors in their primary market in
Hainan Province with respect to the sourcing and procurement of the wide range
of production materials and commodities needed by the Farming Bureau, its
affiliates, and the Hainan State Farms.  With respect to other unaffiliated
purchasers, HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries are subject to significant
competition from certain suppliers owned and controlled by the Hainan
Provincial Government and from a number of smaller suppliers of certain of the
individual production materials and commodities in which the Operating
Subsidiaries trade.  Management believes that the Operating Subsidiaries'
market share is approximately the same as that of the suppliers owned and
controlled by the Hainan Provincial Government and that the Operating
Subsidiaries and the government-controlled suppliers collectively have a market
share of over 90% with respect to those production materials and commodities
traded by the Operating Subsidiaries.

         Listed below are those competitors owned and controlled by the Hainan
Provincial Government and the products with which they compete with the
Operating Subsidiaries:

<TABLE>

                 Hainan Provincial Metals &                 Metals, building and construction materials
                 Building Materials Company

                 Hainan Provincial Petroleum                Oils (diesel oil, gasoline and heavy oil)
                 Company

                 Hainan Provincial Production               Pesticides and fertilizers
                 Materials Company

                 Hainan Provincial Automobiles              Automobiles and automobile parts

                 Hainan Provincial Farm                     Farm equipment
                 Equipment Company

                 Hainan Provincial Fuels &                  Fuels and chemicals (including coal)
                 Chemical Company

                 Hainan Provincial Mechanical               Electrical and mechanical equipment,
                 & Electrical Company                       appliances and parts
</TABLE>

         The price and quality of products sold by the competitors are similar
to that of the comparable products sold by the Operating Subsidiaries.
However, the Operating Subsidiaries can usually arrange more prompt fulfillment
of orders and shipment of goods due to their warehouse facilities and
transportation fleet.  Also, the Operating Subsidiaries can often offer more
flexible payment terms than their competitors with respect to sales to the
Hainan State Farms.

         ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

         Due to the business nature of the Operating Subsidiaries in the
procurement segment, management does not believe that there are any material
requirements under PRC environmental law or regulations applicable to the
Operating Subsidiaries which could have a material adverse effect on the
capital expenditures, including capital expenditures required in order to
comply with environmental laws and regulation, in the procurement segment of
the business of the Operating Subsidiaries.


PRC LEGAL SYSTEM

         The PRC is still in the process of developing a comprehensive system
of laws.  A significant number of laws and regulations dealing, in particular,
with economic matters and foreign investment, protection of intellectual
property, taxation, technology transfer and trade have been promulgated since
1978 when the PRC first embarked on its economic reform policy.  The
Constitution was amended in December 1982 to authorize foreign investment and
to guarantee the "lawful rights and interests" of foreign investors in the PRC.





                                      -16-
<PAGE>   17


         National laws in the PRC are promulgated by the National People's
Congress ("NPC").  However, when the NPC is not in session, its Standing
Committee promulgates laws and the NPC acts as a rubber stamp.  The State
Council, certain of the entities affiliated with the State Council and people's
congresses at the provincial and municipal levels are also vested with the
power to promulgate administrative measures, rules and regulations having the
force of law.

         The legal system in the PRC is based on written statutes, and decided
cases do not constitute binding precedents, although such cases are sometimes
referred to for guidance.  The main legislation governing the judicial system
is The Law of the People's Republic of China concerning the Organization of the
Judicial System, which came into effect on July 1, 1979 and was amended on
September 2, 1983.  The main legislation governing civil procedure is The Law
of the People's Republic of China on Civil Procedure (the "Civil Procedure
Law") which came into effect on April 5, 1991.

         All foreign individuals, enterprises and other entities are given the
same rights and obligations as PRC individuals, enterprises and other entities
in instituting or defending proceedings in courts.  If, however, the rights and
obligations of PRC individuals, enterprises or other entities to institute or
defend legal proceedings are subject to any restriction in any foreign
jurisdiction, then reciprocal restrictions may be imposed by PRC courts on the
rights and obligations of the individuals, enterprises and other entities of
such jurisdictions to institute or defend legal proceedings in the PRC.
Foreign individuals, enterprises and other entities who wish to retain legal
counsel in instituting or defending any proceedings in a PRC court must retain
lawyers qualified in the PRC.

         All civil cases are decided by the court on the basis of a majority
vote and are subject to a two-tier procedure, with cases being heard by a court
of first instance and then subject to appeal to an appellate court.  Courts in
the PRC are divided into four levels:  the Supreme People's Court, the High
People's Court, the Intermediate People's Court and the Elementary People's
Court.  At each level, there is a criminal division, a civil division, an
economic division and an administrative division.  Cases involving foreigners
are usually first brought at the intermediate level.  The PRC also has
specialty courts which handle maritime military, maritime, railroad, forestry
and traffic matters.  The Supreme People's Court is the highest judicial
establishment in the PRC. It is responsible for supervising all other courts.
It has appellate jurisdiction over High People's Courts and specialty courts,
and original jurisdiction in limited circumstances.  It also adjudicates
certain special criminal prosecutions.  In case of uncertainty in relation to
the interpretation of any law, rule or regulation, the Supreme People's Court
may be asked to provide an opinion on the interpretation of such law, rule or
regulation.

         Most judges in the PRC are members of the Chinese Communist Party (the
"CCP"), and the party expects judges to carry out its policies.  In an attempt
to promote judicial independence, a long-standing "examination and approval"
system of review by the CCP, which was used in cases involving the death
penalty, foreigners and certain important decisions, was officially abolished
in 1979.  However, review of decisions by the party is still common.

         If a legally binding judgment or ruling is given by a PRC court, but
the party against whom such judgment or ruling is to be enforced is not present
or does not have any assets in the PRC, the person seeking enforcement may
apply to the appropriate foreign court for recognition and enforcement of such
judgment or ruling.  Alternatively, where there is an applicable judicial
assistance treaty or other arrangement for reciprocal enforcement of judgments
between the PRC and the country in which the PRC judgment or ruling is sought
to be enforced, the PRC court may be asked to seek the enforcement of such
judgment or ruling directly through the courts in such foreign country.

         Similarly, if a party requests a PRC court to recognize or enforce a
judgment or ruling given by a foreign court, such judgment or ruling will be
recognized and enforced only where there is an applicable judicial assistance
treaty or other arrangement for reciprocal enforcement of judgements between
the PRC and the country of the court by which such judgment or ruling is given.
Where there is an applicable judicial assistance treaty, a foreign court may
directly request a PRC court to recognize and enforce such a judgment.  The
enforcement of such judgment or ruling, however, must not violate the public
security, state sovereignty or basic principles of the law of the PRC or
contradict the public interest of the PRC.  If it is necessary to enforce such
judgment or ruling, the PRC court will issue an enforcement order and will
proceed with enforcement in accordance with PRC law.

         To date, the PRC has concluded judicial assistance treaties with only
a few countries, including Belgium, France, Poland, Mongolia, Ukraine, Romania,
Spain, Italy, Russia, Cuba, Thailand, Egypt, Khazakstan, Belarus, Turkey,
Greece and Bulgaria.

         Foreign arbitral awards may be enforced in the PRC in accordance with
the Civil Procedure Law, which provides that an application for enforcement
shall be submitted to the Intermediate Peoples Court of the place where the
party against whom enforcement is sought is domiciled or where such party's
property is located.  Application





                                      -17-
<PAGE>   18

for enforcement shall be handled pursuant to international treaties to which
the PRC is a party, most importantly the Convention on the Recognition and
Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards (the "New York Convention"), to which
the PRC acceded in 1987.  As of September 20, 1993, 129 states and territories
were members of the New York Convention, including the U.S. and Hong Kong, to
which Great Britain extended application of the Convention pursuant to its own
accession.

         There is no express requirement in the Civil procedure Law, as in the
case of foreign court judgments and rulings, that foreign arbitral awards which
are brought for enforcement in the PRC must not violate the public security,
state sovereignty or basic principles of the law of the PRC or contradict the
public interest of the PRC.  However, the New York Convention does permit a PRC
court to refuse recognition and enforcement of a foreign arbitral course on the
grounds that doing so would be contrary to the public policy of the PRC.
Nonetheless, the Civil Procedure Law and the New York Convention allow PRC
courts significantly less basis for rejecting an application or enforcement of
a foreign arbitral award than exists in the case of foreign court judgments or
rulings.  A consistent record of enforcement of foreign arbitral awards,
however, has yet to develop.

         The China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission
("CIETAC"), established in Beijing under the auspices of the China Council for
the Promotion of International Trade, is one of two domestic arbitration
organizations in the PRC charged with arbitrating foreign-related disputes.
Under the new CIETAC arbitration rules, which came into effect on June 1, 1994,
CIETAC has jurisdiction over any dispute arising from "international or
external economic and trade transactions" with respect to which an arbitration
agreement selecting CIETAC arbitration has been reached.  The other arbitration
organization exclusively arbitrates foreign-related maritime disputes.

         The CIETAC rules provide that an award rendered by a CIETAC tribunal
shall be final and binding on the parties.  The Civil Procedure Law also
provides that a PRC court may only refuse to enforce a CIETAC final award in
the event of procedural errors relating to the jurisdiction of CIETAC over a
given dispute or the failure by an arbitration tribunal to abide by CIETAC
rules, and may also deny execution of the award in the event that it determines
that doing so would be against the "public interest".

         Although most arbitrations are conducted in Beijing, parties to a
dispute may agree that the dispute be heard under the auspices of either of the
two CIETAC sub-commissions established in Shenzhen and Shanghai.  The parties
may agree to appoint a single arbitrator to arbitrate a dispute, but normally
three arbitrators form the arbitration panel.  Each party selects one
arbitrator and the chairman of CIETAC selects the third, who acts as chairman
of the tribunal.  Arbitrators must be selected from a panel of arbitrators
maintained by CIETAC.  The panel of arbitrators currently comprises 296
arbitrators, of which approximately one-third are either Hong Kong or foreign
individuals.  The CIETAC arbitration rules also describe grounds for
challenging arbitrators.

         In deciding the substantive aspects of a dispute, the CIETAC
arbitration tribunal must look to the governing law of the contract.  PRC
foreign economic contract law permits the parties to choose foreign or PRC law
as the governing law in most cases.  In the event that the parties have not
chosen a governing law, PRC choice of law rules provide for the selection of
the law which has the closest connection to the subject matter of the dispute.

         Also, on September 1, 1995, the Arbitration Law of the People's
Republic of China became effective, allowing arbitration commissions to be
established in major cities of the PRC and authorizing such commissions to
arbitrate foreign-related disputes if the subject arbitration agreement submits
such disputes to such commissions.

         The activities of HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries in China are by
law subject, in some cases, to administrative review and approval by various
national, provincial, and local agencies of the Chinese government.  While
China has promulgated an Administrative Procedure Law permitting redress to the
courts with respect to certain administrative actions, this law appears to be
largely untested in this context.  Although the Company believes that the
support of local, provincial, and national governmental entities benefits the
Company's operations in connection with administrative reviews and receiving
approvals, there can be no assurance that such approvals, when necessary or
advisable, will be forthcoming.





                                      -18-

[Item 2]                          PROPERTIES

         The Company does not own any real property with respect to its
operations.  The headquarters of HARC, the warehouse and the other facilities
of the Operating Subsidiaries are all located in Hainan Province in the PRC.
HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries use warehouse and other facilities
consisting of a total gross area of approximately 37,000 square meters.
Pursuant to the Restructuring Agreements, surplus office facilities consisting
of a total gross area of approximately 12,000 square meters were transferred to
the Farming Bureau.  The sales and administrative offices of the Operating
Subsidiaries were relocated to the headquarters of HARC.  As is typical in the
PRC, the PRC government owns all of the land on which the improvements are
situated.  The local PRC governmental authorities in Hainan Province granted
land use rights with respect to such land for an indefinite term to two related
companies owned and controlled by the Farming Bureau.  The rights of HARC and
the Operating Subsidiaries to use the land on which the warehouse and other
facilities are situated are subject to the rights of those two companies.

         Pursuant to an Agreement on Service and Cooperation dated November 5,
1994, the Farming Bureau has granted to HARC the right to occupy and use a
portion of the land and the improvements situated thereon and, in consideration
therefor, HARC has agreed to assume the payment of the related land use taxes
attributable to such land.  The term of that agreement is concurrent with the
existence of HARC, which is initially 50 years and is subject to extension
thereafter upon agreement of HARC's shareholders and the relevant approval
authorities.  The two related companies have also executed agreements endorsing
the Agreement on Service and Cooperation with respect to the rights of HARC and
the Operating Subsidiaries to use the land on which the warehouse and other
facilities are situated, thereby joining the Farming Bureau in the granting of
the land use rights to HARC.

         The Farming Bureau has also entered into a rental agreement with HARC
with respect to the rental of a portion consisting of 532 square meters of a
building located in Haikou City, PRC, in which HARC's corporate headquarters
are located.  Such rental agreement is for a period of 10 years at an annual
rental of Rmb170,240 (US$20,511) payable in equal semi-annual installments.
The rental agreement further provides that HARC shall be responsible for
certain costs and expenses in connection with its use of the property.  On
August 9, 1996, an additional rental agreement was entered into between HARC
and the Hainan Farming Bureau Testing Center, an affiliate of the Farming
Bureau, on the same building to expand the office space and to house the sales
and administrative functions of First Supply and Second Supply.  The term of
the lease is for a period of eight years (through September 30, 2004), and it
covers an area of approximately 314 square meters at an annual rental rate of
Rmb72,000 (US$8,675).



[Item 3]                         LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         In the opinion of management, there are no material legal proceedings
pending or threatened against the Company or any of its subsidiaries as of
December 31, 1996.



[Item 4]                SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE
                              OF SECURITY HOLDERS

         On December 30, 1996, pursuant to proper notice, the Company held its
annual meeting of shareholders.  Several matters were submitted to a vote of

holders of shares of the Company's common stock on December 13, 1996, the
record date for the meeting established by the Company's Board of Directors.  A
quorum of shares entitled to vote was present at the meeting or represented by
proxies, and the following matters were approved by the holders of a majority
of the outstanding shares of the Company:

         1.  a proposal by the Board of Directors to effect a one-for-ten
         reverse stock split of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001

         3.  an amendment to the Articles of Incorporation, as revised, of the
         Company to establish three classes of directors and clarify provisions

         against);

         4.  an amendment to the By-Laws of the Company to allow the Board of
         Directors to amend the By-Laws (56,923,534 votes for, 6,675 votes
         against);

         5.  an amendment to the Company's 1995 Stock Option Plan to increase
         the number of shares of Common Stock subject thereto and to decrease
         the required holding period for non-qualified stock options
         (56,925,534 votes for, 4,675 votes against);

         6.  the election of directors (56,929,534 votes for all nominees, 675
         votes to withhold authority to vote for all nominees, and no
         individual votes to withhold authority to vote for any particular
         nominee); and

         7.  the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young as the
         Company's independent accountants for the fiscal year ending December
         31, 1996 (56,929,534 votes for, 675 votes against).

         The proxy materials sent to the shareholders of the company, which
include the notice to shareholders and the full text of each of the above
proposals as proposed and adopted, the Certificate of Amendment of Articles of
Incorporation of the Company, the Amended and Restated By-laws of the Company
and the Company's Amended and Restated 1995 Stock Option Plan are attached
hereto as Exhibits 99.4, 4.2, 3.7 and 10.34, respectively, and are incorporated
herein by reference.

[Item 5]             MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY
                        AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

         The Company's Common Stock is quoted on the electronic inter-dealer
quotation system operated by The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. ("The Nasdaq Stock
Market"), a subsidiary of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
("NASD"), in the category of Small Cap Issues.  The Company's Common Stock has
been traded since August 7, 1995, on The Nasdaq Stock Market under the symbol
"CHRB."  Prior to such date, the Company's Common Stock was traded in the
over-the counter market on the OTC Bulletin Board (the "Bulletin Board")
operated by the NASD under the symbol "CEVL."  Until August 7, 1995, there was
only a limited trading market for the Company's Common Stock.  The following
table sets forth the high and low bid prices for the Company's Common Stock as
reported by The Nasdaq Stock Market for each fiscal quarter of 1996, for that
period during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 1995, during which high
and low bid quotations were reported and for the fiscal quarter ended December
31, 1995.  The bid prices are inter-dealer prices, without retail markup,
markdown or commission, and may not necessarily reflect actual transactions.
All of the below quotations were obtained from the monthly statistical report
provided to the Company by The Nasdaq Stock Market, and the quotations have
been adjusted to give retroactive effect to the one-for-ten reverse stock split
that was effective as of December 31, 1996:

  On April 14, 1997, there were 186 holders of record of the Company's Common
Stock.

         The one-for-ten reverse stock split approved by the shareholders of
the Company was made effective by the Company's Board of Directors on December
31, 1996.  In addition, on December 31, 1996, the Board of Directors approved
the exchange of 32 million pre-reverse shares of Common Stock, with substantial
restrictions, held by Everbright Finance & Investment Company Limited, for 3.2
million shares of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock, with nearly identical
restrictions.  The terms of this exchange are set forth in the Exchange
Agreement between the Company and Everbright Finance & Investment Company
Limited, dated December 31, 1996, a copy of which is attached

as Exhibit 10.33 and incorporated herein by reference.  The Series B Preferred
Stock is not entitled to participate in dividend distributions or distributions
in the event of liquidation of the Company.  See the Certificate of Amendment of
Certificate of Designation of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, a copy of
which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.2 and incorporated herein by reference.

         The Company's two offshore private placements of common stock are fully
disclosed in its Current Reports on Form 8-K, dated March 8 and July 8, 1996,
which are incorporated herein by reference.

         The Company has not paid any dividends with respect to its Common
Stock and has no present plan to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future.
The Company intends to retain its earnings to support the growth and expansion
of its business.

         Any dividends paid in the future by the Company will be paid at the
discretion of the Company's Board of Directors and will be dependent upon
distributions, if any, made by the Operating Subsidiaries through HARC to the
Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Billion Luck.  Applicable PRC law and HARC's
Articles of Association (the "Articles") require that, before HARC, as a
limited joint stock company, distributes profits to investors, it must (1)
satisfy all taxes; (2) provide for all losses incurred in previous years; and
(3) allocate a specified percentage of remaining profits to each of the
following:  a surplus reserve (in the amount of 10% of such remaining profits),
a collective welfare fund (in the amount of 10% of such remaining profits), and
an incentive fund (in an amount between 5% and 10% of such remaining profits).
The Articles provide that the foregoing may be adjusted by the HARC'S board of
directors based upon HARC's business performance and development needs, subject
to the approval of HARC's shareholders.  Distributions of profits by the
Operating Subsidiaries to HARC, and by HARC to Billion Luck are required to be
pro rata in proportion to such party's investment in such company.  In addition
to the foregoing, any future determination to pay a dividend to holders of
shares of Common Stock will depend on the Company's results of operations, its
financial condition and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of
Directors.  Since the acquisition of Billion Luck by the Company in December,
1994, the Company has not received any distributions from any of its
subsidiaries and has not made any distributions to its shareholders.

[Item 7]             MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

         The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and related Notes thereto, the
unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information, the combined financial
statements of the Operating Subsidiaries and other financial information
included elsewhere herein.  The financial statements of the Company are
prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP.


OVERVIEW

THE COMPANY

         The Company is a Nevada holding company whose only significant asset
is a wholly-owned British Virgin Islands subsidiary, Billion Luck, which owns a
56% interest in HARC, a limited liability joint stock company organized in the
PRC which, through the Operating Subsidiaries, markets and distributes natural
rubber and rubber products produced by the Hainan State Farms and non-state
farms in the PRC, sources building and production materials, chemicals, farm
equipment and machinery, automobiles and other commodities for use primarily by
the Hainan State Farms and other unaffiliated customers and trades in natural
rubber commodities futures contracts.  Accordingly, the Company will derive its
revenues from the distributions paid to the Company through Billion Luck by
HARC resulting from distributions paid by the Operating Subsidiaries.  HARC
pays distributions to its shareholders in accordance with their percentage
interests as follows:  Billion Luck (56%), Guilinyang Farm (5%) and Farming
Bureau (39%).

         The Statements under "Results of Operations" and "Liquidity and
Capital Resources" relate to the operations and condition of the Company and
its subsidiaries.

         The Operating Subsidiaries were originally established as state-owned
enterprises in the PRC by the Farming Bureau, a division of the Ministry of
Agriculture of PRC.  HARC was established on June 28, 1994, to act as the
holding company of the Operating Subsidiaries.  The Operating Subsidiaries
principally engage in the marketing and distribution of raw natural rubber
produced by the Hainan State Farms and non-state farms, and in the trading of
natural rubber commodities futures contracts to hedge the price risk associated
with certain firm commitments for the purchase of natural rubber.  As
opportunities arise, the Operating Subsidiaries also enter into natural rubber
commodities futures contracts that are not specific hedges, in anticipation of
a rise or fall in the price of natural rubber, based on their knowledge of the
supply and demand situation with respect to natural rubber in the PRC.  They
also procure certain production materials and supplies which include building
materials, fertilizers, fuels, chemicals, farm equipment and machinery,
automobiles, automobile parts and electrical appliances for the Farming Bureau,
the Hainan State Farms and other unaffiliated customers.  In 1996, HARC and the
Operating Subsidiaries also diversified into trading of other agricultural
products like coffee beans.

         Prior to 1994, selling prices of natural rubber were generally set by
the Farming Bureau in order to control the gross profit margin earned by the
Operating Subsidiaries.  Commencing in 1994, however, the Farming Bureau
generally ceased establishing the selling price of natural rubber, and instead
allowed Operating Subsidiaries to determine the selling price according to
market conditions, subject to a minimum gross profit margin of 3.5% (before the
purchase discount, as discussed hereinbelow) on natural rubber purchased from
the Hainan State Farms.  Generally, materials and supplies are sold at a higher
profit margin than that of natural rubber.  The primary cost of operating the
business is the materials cost of natural rubber and other materials and
supplies, as well as selling and administrative expenses.

         Pursuant to the Agreement on Rubber Purchase Deposits dated March 30,
1995, the Farming Bureau guarantees the supply of a minimum of 120,000 tons
(the "Guaranteed Quantity") of natural rubber for each of the next three years.
The Operating Subsidiaries are not obligated to purchase the Guaranteed
Quantity.  As consideration for this guarantee, the Operating Subsidiaries have
maintained a purchase deposit on a rolling basis equivalent to 15% of the
Guaranteed Quantity multiplied by the average market price of natural rubber
for the previous quarter.  In return, a purchase discount is offered to the
Operating Subsidiaries for the purchase of natural rubber from the Hainan State
Farms.

         Pursuant to the Restructuring Agreements, HARC and the Operating
Subsidiaries agreed to assign to the Farming Bureau the amounts due from the
farms and the affiliates of the Farming Bureau as of September 30, 1996,





                                      -23-
<PAGE>   24

and the Farming Bureau agreed to assume the obligations under the short term
bank loans, as part of the corporate restructuring plan. The assignment of
amounts due from farms and affiliates of the Farming Bureau was effective on
October 1, 1996, and the assumption of short term bank loans will be effective
upon approval of such banks, but no later than March 31, 1997.  Under the
Restructuring Agreements, the Farming Bureau had to obtain the banks' approval
of the assumptions.  As of September 30, 1996, the aggregate amount due from the
farms and affiliates of the Farming Bureau amounted to approximately Rmb274
million (US$33 million), and the short term bank loans amounted to approximately
Rmb293 million (US$35 million). According to the Restructuring Agreements, the
Farming Bureau will be responsible for the payment of interest incurred on the
bank loans after September 30, 1996. On March 28, 1997, and March 31, 1997, the
Operating Subsidiaries obtained approval from the relevant banks for the
assumptions of the bank loans by the Farming Bureau.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995

SALES AND GROSS PROFIT

         Total net sales for the year ended December 31, 1996, decreased
slightly by Rmb130 million or 6.6% to Rmb1,827 million, compared to Rmb1,957
million for the corresponding period in 1995.  Net sales of natural rubber
declined by Rmb259 million or 14.6% to Rmb1,519 million, compared to Rmb1,778
million for the corresponding period in 1995.  The decline in natural rubber
sales has been partially offset by the increase in procurement of materials and
supplies.  Net sales revenue for the procurement of materials and supplies
increased significantly by Rmb129 million or 72% to Rmb308 million, compared to
Rmb179 million for the corresponding period in 1995.

         As previously discussed, the natural rubber market in 1996 was not as
favorable as in 1995 because of a weakened domestic rubber consumption market
and a decline in the domestic natural rubber price caused by the





                                      -24-
<PAGE>   25

large influx of imported natural rubber.  The quantity of natural rubber sales
decreased by approximately 18,000 tons or 13% to 120,000 tons, compared to
138,000 tons for the corresponding period in 1995.  The unit price of natural
rubber decreased from approximately Rmb15,500 per ton at the beginning of 1996
to approximately Rmb11,200 per ton by the end of 1996.  During the third
quarter of the year, the Company deliberately stockpiled  natural rubber in
anticipation of an upward price movement during the fourth quarter, when output
is generally lower.  However, the domestic price of natural rubber continued to
be low during the fourth quarter because of the large influx of imported rubber
during the fourth quarter.

         Following the completion of the Company's private offshore placements 
on March 8 and July 8, 1996, portions of the net proceeds from the offerings
were invested into HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries as working capital to
expand the distribution operations.  During the year, the Company has expanded
into trading of other agricultural products, such as coffee beans which were in
high demand in China as a result of the active trading of coffee commodity
futures in China.  During the year, a quantity of approximately 8,500 tons of
coffee beans were sold and a net sales revenue of approximately Rmb241 million
was recorded, which carried an average gross profit of approximately 33%.  The
corresponding sales revenue was recorded under the procurement of materials and
supplies.  If sales of these agricultural products were excluded, net sales
revenue from procurement of materials and supplies would drop by approximately
Rmb112 million or 62% to Rmb67 million in 1996 from Rmb179 million in 1995. The
decline was mainly due to the prolonged enforcement of the macroeconomic
austerity measures implemented by the Central Government since mid-1993 to rein
in the overheated Chinese economy, which has hampered the domestic consumption
and demand for materials and supplies.

         Gross profits increased by Rmb44 million or 42% to Rmb150 million in
1996 from Rmb106 million in 1995.  The overall gross profit margin also
increased from 5.4% in 1995 to 8.2% in 1996.  The increase was primarily
attributable to the high gross profit margin earned from the trading of
agricultural products.  The gross profit margin on natural rubber distribution
was down to 4.2% in 1996 from 5.3% on 1995 due to competition from imported
natural rubber.  The Company has mitigated the effect of adverse price movement
for domestic rubber on the gross profit margin by entering into rubber futures
contracts to hedge against the price risk associated with the holding of rubber
inventory, rubber purchase commitments and anticipation of rubber purchases.
The purchase discounts received from the farms, as well as the 3.5% gross
profit margin guarantee, also helped to shield the Company against the effect
of the drop in natural rubber prices on gross profit margins.

SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

         Selling and administrative expenses decreased by Rmb3.9 million or
7.2% to Rmb50.5 million in 1996 from Rmb54.4 million in 1995.  Pursuant to the
Restructuring Agreements effective on October 1, 1996, the Company
strategically consolidated and rationalized its various trading divisions in
order to streamline its business operations and improve cost control.  The
successful implementation of the corporate restructuring and cost control
measures has resulted in reduced administrative overhead, staff costs and
related expenses.  This reduction of administrative overhead, staff costs and
related welfare expenses more than offset the increased legal and professional
fees associated with regulatory compliance and public relations costs incurred
as a result of the Nasdaq listing status of the Company.

FINANCIAL EXPENSES, NET

         The net financial expenses decreased by Rmb13.3 or 40% to Rmb19.9
million in 1996 from Rmb33.2 million in 1995.  The decrease in net financial
expenses was primarily attributable to the reduction in bank interest expenses
commencing in the fourth quarter of 1996 following the execution of the
Restructuring Agreements effective on October 1, 1996.  According to the
Restructuring Agreements, all outstanding bank loans of the Operating
Subsidiaries were deemed assigned to the Farming Bureau, together with the
assignment of certain accounts receivable from the farms and certain affiliates
of the Farming Bureau.  As a result, all bank interest incurred by the
Operating Subsidiaries commencing October 1, 1996, was borne by the Farming
Bureau.

OTHER INCOME, NET

         Other income decreased by Rmb22.6 million or 79% to Rmb6.1 million in
1996 from Rmb28.7 million in 1995.  This significant reduction in other income
was primarily due to the reduction in profit from the trading of commodity
futures contracts for non-hedging purposes.  A profit on the trading of
commodity futures of Rmb10.6 million was recorded for the year 1995, compared
to a profit of only Rmb1.4 million for the year 1996.  In addition, a service
fee of Rmb5 million was paid to the Farming Bureau in accordance with the
Agreement on Service and Cooperation entered into between the Farming Bureau
and HARC dated November 5, 1994.  The agreement stipulates that the Farming
Bureau is entitled to a service fee up to a maximum of Rmb5 million, calculated
at a rate of 10% of HARC's annual net income before the service fee, as
determined in accordance with





                                      -25-
<PAGE>   26

U.S. GAAP, provided that the annual net income of HARC exceeds Rmb40 million
after deducting such fee.  No service fee was paid to the Farming Bureau in
1995 because the financial criteria for such payment was not met.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994

For the following discussion and analysis, the results of operations for the
year ended December 31, 1995 are compared to the pro forma results of
operations for the year ended December 31, 1994.

SALES AND GROSS PROFIT

         For the year ended December 31, 1995, total turnover was Rmb1,957
million compared with Rmb1,754 million for the corresponding period in 1994.
This indicates a rise in sales by Rmb203 million, representing an increase of
11.6% as compared with the corresponding period last year.

         The increase in sales was mainly the result of an increase in natural
rubber sales of Rmb198 million or 12.5% over last year, while sales of
materials and supplies remained approximately unchanged as compared to last
year.

         The increase in rubber sales was mainly due to the increase in sales
quantity from 130,000 tons in 1994 to 138,000 tons in 1995, which was in line
with a general increase in demand for natural rubber in the PRC.  In addition,
the increase in the average natural rubber selling price from approximately
Rmb12,000 per ton in 1994 to Rmb13,000 per ton in 1995 also contributed to the
overall increase in rubber sales.

         The proportion of materials and supplies sales to total sales remained
low as a result of the sustained effect of the macroeconomic austerity measures
introduced by the PRC government in late 1993, which has caused a sharp
decrease in sales of production materials since late 1993.

         The increase in gross profit margin was mainly due to the increase in
the gross profit margin of natural rubber sales from 3.4% in 1994 to 5.3% in
1995.  This increase was mainly the result of purchase discounts of Rmb31.2
million received from farms pursuant to the Agreement on Rubber Purchase
Deposits among the Farming Bureau, First Supply, Second Supply and HARC dated
March 30, 1995.  There were no purchase discounts before March 30, 1995.

SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

         Selling and administrative expenses consisted mainly of wages and
salaries, staff welfare, printing and stationery, pension contributions,
entertainment, professional fees, repairs and maintenance, travel expenses and
outward freight charges.

         Selling and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31,
1995 were Rmb54.4 million compared with Rmb39.4 million for that of 1994,
representing an increase of 38%.  The increase was mainly due to increases in
salaries and staff welfare expenses, which amounted to Rmb4.3 million,
increases in entertainment and office expenses, which amounted to Rmb1.7
million, and other miscellaneous expenses resulting from an increase in the
number of employees and inflation.  The increase also resulted from an increase
in freight expenses due to increased sales volume.

         In addition, more legal and professional expenses and administrative
expenses were incurred relating to the Company's headquarters in Hainan and
Hong Kong.

INTEREST INCOME/EXPENSES

         Interest expenses were derived from the short term bank loans borrowed
by the Operating Subsidiaries which were mainly used to finance the rubber
purchase deposits paid to the Hainan State Farms and the working capital needs
of the Operating Subsidiaries.  Interest income consisted of interest earned on
bank deposits and interest on advances to the Hainan State Farms, the Farming
Bureau and other related companies.

         Interest expenses increased by Rmb4.9 million, or 10.4%, from Rmb47.5
million for the year ended December 31, 1994, to Rmb52.4 million for the
corresponding period in 1995.  The increase was due principally to an increase
in the bank loan interest rate since mid-1995.

         Interest income decreased by Rmb37.1 million, or 66.6% from Rmb55.6
million for the year ended December 31, 1994, to Rmb18.5 million for the
corresponding period in 1995.  The decrease was due mainly to





                                      -26-
<PAGE>   27

the sharp decline in financing to the Hainan State Farms after the Agreement on
Rubber Purchase Deposits, pursuant to which 15% purchase deposits have been
maintained.

OTHER INCOME

         Other income increased by Rmb20.5 million, from Rmb8.2 million for the
year ended December 31, 1994, to Rmb28.7 million for the corresponding period
in 1995.  The increase was primarily due to an increase in net gains on trading
of natural rubber futures contracts and an increase in management fees income.

         The Operating Subsidiaries principally engage in the marketing and
distribution of natural rubber, and they engage in the trading of natural
rubber commodities futures contracts to hedge the price risk associated with
certain firm commitments for the purchase of natural rubber.  However, as
opportunities arise, the Operating Subsidiaries also enter into natural rubber
commodities futures contracts that are not specific hedges, in anticipation of
a rise or fall in the price of natural rubber, based on their knowledge of the
supply and demand situation with respect to natural rubber in the PRC.  For the
year ended December 31, 1995, the Operating Subsidiaries realized a net gain on
such transactions of Rmb10.6 million, which was classified as Other Income.

         For the year ended December 31, 1995, management fees of Rmb3,000 were
charged to two companies owned and controlled by the Farming Bureau for their
share of the Operating Subsidiaries' administrative expenses and for the use of
the Operating Subsidiaries' office equipment, warehouse and staff.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1993

For the following discussion and analysis, the comparison of the results of
operations for the years ended December 31, 1993 and 1994 is on a pro forma
basis.

SALES AND GROSS PROFIT

         For the year ended December 31, 1994, total turnover was Rmb1,754
million compared with Rmb1,479 million for the corresponding period in 1993.
This indicates a rise in sales by Rmb275 million, representing an increase of
18.6% as compared with the corresponding period last year.

         As far as the sales of rubber are concerned, they increased by Rmb558
million or 54.7% as compared with the corresponding period last year.  The
increase was mainly due to the worldwide contraction in the supply of rubber in
1994 with demand grows continuously.  The unit price of rubber has risen to a
historical high of Rmb15,000 per ton.  The average unit price of domestic
rubber for 1994 was Rmb12,000 compared with that of Rmb7,300 in 1993.  This
accounted for the growth in sales of rubber for the year ended December 31,
1994.

         Turnover for production materials for the year ended December 31,
1994, was Rmb174 million compared with Rmb458 million in the corresponding
period last year, representing a decrease of Rmb284 million, or 62% as compared
with last year.  The decrease was mainly attributed to the drastic fall in the
sales of production materials, in particular, the building materials, due to
the nationwide contraction in capital investment as a result of the
implementation of a series of austerity measures by the central government to
combat inflation.  The greatest impact of the measures was on the real estate
market which was further worsened by the introduction of the new property gain
tax system.  The effect of decrease in turnover for production materials on
total turnover was to a certain extent eliminated by the rise in turnover of
rubber.

         In the past, the selling prices of rubber were set by the Farming
Bureau in order to allow a pre-determined profit margin.  Commencing in 1994,
the selling prices were allowed to fluctuate according to market demand and
supply, subject to minimum gross profit margin of 3.5% with respect to natural
rubber purchased from the Hainan State Farms.  In 1994, an overall gross profit
margin of 3.8% was generated.  In 1993, a higher gross profit margin of 3.9%
was generated.  The higher gross profit margin was due mainly to a large
quantity of rubber inventory which was previously purchased at lower prices and
was on hand at the end of 1992.  This inventory was then sold in 1993 at the
higher prevailing selling price as determined by the Farming Bureau.

SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

         Selling and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31,
1994 were Rmb39.4 million compared with Rmb25.3 million for that of 1993,
representing an increase of 56%.  The increase was mainly due to increases in
salaries and staff welfare expenses, amounted to Rmb8 million, and increases in
miscellaneous expenses due to inflation and increases in the number of
divisions of the Operating Subsidiaries, which amounted to Rmb5 million.





                                      -27-
<PAGE>   28

INTEREST INCOME/EXPENSES

         Interest expenses were derived from the short term bank loans borrowed
by the Operating Subsidiaries which were mainly used to finance the working
capital needs of the Hainan State Farms.  Interest income was derived from bank
deposits and the provision of funds to the Hainan State Farms through the 
current accounts with the Hainan State Farms.

         Interest expenses increased by Rmb3.3 million, or 7.5%, to Rmb47.5
million for the year ended December 31, 1994, from Rmb44.2 million for the
corresponding period in 1993.  The increase is due principally to an increase
in the interest rate from the second half of 1993 forward and an increase in
the bank loan for the financing of the working capital.

         Interest income increased by Rmb11 million, or 24.7% to Rmb55.6
million for the year ended December 31, 1994, from Rmb44.6 million for the
corresponding period in 1993.  Interest income increased more than the interest
expenses because of the bank interest earned on the cash contribution of Rmb56
million from Billion Luck to HARC and the penalty interest charged on overdue
accounts receivable balances.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Operating Subsidiaries' primary liquidity needs are to fund
accounts receivable, inventories, rubber purchase deposits and, to a lesser
extent, to expand business operations.  The Operating Subsidiaries have
financed their working capital requirements through a combination of internally
generated cash and short term bank borrowing.

         Net cash provided by/(used in) operating activities was (Rmb3.5
million), (Rmb119 million) and Rmb130 million in fiscal 1994, 1995 and 1996,
respectively.  Net cash flows from the Operating Subsidiaries' operating
activities are attributable to the Operating Subsidiaries' income and changes
in operating assets and liabilities.  The substantial increase in cash used in
operating activities in 1995 was mainly due to the increase in purchase
deposits paid to Hainan State Farms pursuant to the Agreement on Rubber
Purchase Deposits and to the increase in inventory held at the year end in
anticipation of a higher selling price for natural rubber during the
non-harvest season in early 1996.  However, the domestic price of natural
rubber continued to be low during the first quarter of 1996 because of the
large influx of imported natural rubber and weakened domestic demand.

         The Operating Subsidiaries have outstanding bank loans with Hainan
Province Agricultural Bank - Sales Division, and Haikou City Agricultural Bank
- Xiuyin Sub-Branch.  These loans amounted to Rmb293 million as at December 31,
1996, bearing a weighted average interest rate of 14.32% per annum.  The bank
loans are generally secured by a guarantee given by the Farming Bureau and
mature not more than one year after such loans are originally made.  Prior to
mid-1992, the Farming Bureau generally undertook the financing obligations with
respect to the Hainan State Farms and, therefore, the bank loans of the
Operating Subsidiaries were insignificant.  Afterwards, large amounts of funds
from bank loans have been borrowed by the Operating Subsidiaries which are used
to finance the Hainan State Farms' operation and to finance the sale of
production materials to the Hainan State Farms.  On March 30, 1995, HARC, First
Supply and Second Supply entered into an agreement with the Farming Bureau
pursuant to which the Farming Bureau guarantees the supply of a minimum of
120,000 tons (the "Guaranteed Quantity") of natural rubber for each of the
following three years.  The Operating Subsidiaries are not obligated to
purchase the Guaranteed Quantity.  In consideration of this guarantee, the
Operating Subsidiaries have maintained a purchase deposit on a rolling basis
which is equivalent to the Guaranteed Quantity multiplied by the average market
price for natural rubber for the previous quarter.  In return, a purchase
discount is offered to the Operating Subsidiaries for the purchase of natural
rubber from the Hainan State Farms.

         The Farming Bureau has guaranteed the availability of alternative
financing for the Operating Subsidiaries to meet their liabilities in the event
that the banks demand repayment of their outstanding loans, and it has
guaranteed the recoverability of current accounts receivable from the Hainan
State Farms and other related companies controlled and owned by the Farming
Bureau.

         Pursuant to the Restructuring Agreements, HARC and the Operating
Subsidiaries agreed to assign to the Farming Bureau the amounts due from the
farms and the affiliates of the Farming Bureau as of September 30, 1996, and
the Farming Bureau agreed to assume the obligations under the short term bank
loans, as part of the corporate restructuring plan. The assignment of amounts
due from farms and affiliates of the Farming Bureau was effective on October 1,
1996, and the assumption of short term bank loans will be effective upon
approval of such banks, but no later than March 31, 1997.  Under the
Restructuring Agreements, the Farming Bureau had to obtain the banks' approval
of the assumptions.  As of September 30, 1996, the aggregate amount due from the
farms and affiliates of the Farming Bureau amounted to approximately





                                      -28-
<PAGE>   29

Rmb274 million (US$33 million), and the short term bank loans amounted to
approximately Rmb293 million (US$35 million).  According to the Restructuring
Agreements, the Farming Bureau will be responsible for the payment of interest
incurred on the bank loans after September 30, 1996.  On March 28, 1997, and
March 31, 1997, the Operating Subsidiaries obtained approvals from the relevant
banks for the assumptions of the bank loans by the Farming Bureau.

         During the year ended December 31, 1996, the Company issued 1,283
shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value US$0.001 per share,
at a price of US$10,000 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of US$12.83
million.  The terms of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, and other
information concerning the sale of such stock, were set forth in the Company's
two Forms 8-K dated March 8, 1996 and July 8, 1996, and are incorporated herein
by reference.  As of December 31, 1996, all shares of the Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock were converted to shares of Common Stock, and no shares of
Series B Convertible Preferred Stock are currently authorized or outstanding.
(The currently outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock have rights,
preferences and limitations that are completely different from those of the
Series B Convertible Preferred Stock.  See Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2 attached hereto
and incorporated herein by reference.)

         The Company believes that the net proceeds from its capital raising
efforts, together with the internally generated funds, will be sufficient to
satisfy its anticipated working capital needs for at least the next 12 months.

INFLATION

         Inflation has historically not had a material effect on the Operating
Subsidiaries' operations.  When the price of rubber or production materials has
increased, these costs historically have been passed on to the customers.
Furthermore, because the Operating Subsidiaries do not have either long term
supply contracts or long term contracts with customers, prices are quoted based
on the prevailing market price determined by supply and demand.  Accordingly,
the Company does not anticipate any material effect on its future revenues due
to inflation; however, such inflation has generally resulted in upward pressure
on wages and salary to employees.

Fei Lie.  In accordance with the terms of the Employment Agreement, Mr. Li has
been employed by Billion Luck to perform such duties with respect to Billion
Luck as Billion Luck's Board of Directors shall from time to time determine.
Mr. Li shall receive a base salary of HK$240,000 (US$31,008) annually, which
base salary shall be adjusted on each anniversary of the Employment Agreement
to reflect a change in the applicable consumer price index or such greater

         In addition, on February 1, 1994, Billion Luck entered into a
consulting agreement with Brender Services Limited, a British Virgin Islands
company beneficially owned by Mr. Wong Wah On, the Financial Controller of the
Company.  In accordance with this consulting agreement, during the year ended

Brender Services Limited.  On April 30, 1995, the Company entered into another
consulting agreement pursuant to which Brender Services Limited agreed to
provide consulting services to the Company for a period of five years
commencing on May 1, 1995.  In consideration of the services to be rendered by
Brender Services Limited, the Company agreed to pay a consultancy fee of
HK$170,000 (US$21,964) per month during the first two years of the term of the
consulting agreement and a fee to be agreed upon by the parties, but not less
than HK$170,000 (US$21,964) per month, for the remaining three years of the
term.  The Company also agreed to reimburse Brender Services Limited for all
out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with rendering services under the

HK$2,040,000 (US$263,566), was paid to Brender Services Limited.  See "Certain
Relationships and Related Transactions."

         Except for the foregoing, the Company has no employment contracts with
any of its officers or directors and maintains no retirement, fringe benefit or
similar plans for the benefit of its officers or directors.  The Company may,
however, enter into employment contracts with its officers and key employees,
adopt various benefit plans and begin paying compensation to its officers and
directors as it deems appropriate to attract and retain the services of such
persons.

         The Company does not pay fees to directors for their attendance at
meetings of the Board of Directors or of committees; however, the Company may
adopt a policy of making such payments in the future.  The Company will
reimburse out-of-pocket expenses incurred by directors in attending Board and
committee meetings.

         During the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996, no holder of stock
options exercised such options, and all stock options granted remained
outstanding.  Also during such fiscal year, no long-term incentive plans or
pension plans were in effect with respect to any of the Company's officers,

STOCK OPTIONS

         The Company adopted a Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") as of March 31,
1995.  The Plan allows the Board of Directors, or a committee thereof at the
Board's discretion, to grant stock options to officers, directors, key
employees, consultants and affiliates of the Company.  Initially, 2,400,000
shares of common stock could be issued and sold pursuant to options granted
under the Plan.  "Incentive Stock Options" within the meaning of Section 422 of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), may be granted to
employees, including officers, whether or not they are members of the Board of
Directors, and nonqualified stock options may be granted to any such employee
or officer and to directors, consultants, and affiliates who perform
substantial services for or on behalf of the Company or its subsidiaries.

         The Board of Directors, or a committee appointed by the Board (the
"Committee"), is vested with authority to (i) select persons to participate in
the Plan; (ii) determine the form and substance of grants made under the Plan





                                      -35-
<PAGE>   36

to each participant, and the conditions and restrictions, if any, subject to
which grants will be made; (iii) interpret the Plan; and (iv) adopt, amend, or
rescind such rules and regulations for carrying out the Plan as it may deem
appropriate.  The Board of Directors has the power to modify or terminate the
Plan and from time to time may suspend, and if suspended may reinstate, any or
all of the provisions of the Plan except that (i) no modification, suspension,
or termination of the Plan may, without the consent of the grantee affected,
alter or impair any grant previously made under the Plan; and (ii) no
modification shall become effective without prior consent of the shareholders
of the Company that would (a) increase the maximum number of shares reserved
for issuance under the Plan, except for certain adjustments allowed by the
Plan; (b) change the classes of employees eligible to participate in the Plan;
or (c) materially increase the benefits accruing to participants in the Plan.

         The Plan provides that the price per share deliverable upon the
exercise of each Incentive Stock Option shall not be less than 100% of the fair
market value of the shares on the date the option is granted, as the Committee
determines.  In the case of the grant of any Incentive Stock Option to an
employee who, at the time of the grant, owns more than 10% of the total
combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries, such price per share, if required by the Code at the time of
grant, shall not be less than 110% of the fair market value of the shares on
the date the option is granted.  The price per share deliverable upon the
exercise of each nonqualified stock option shall not be less than the higher of
(i) the net tangible assets per share of the Company as of the end of the
fiscal year immediately preceding the date of such granting; or (ii) 80% of the
fair market value of the shares on the date the option is granted, as the
Committee determines.

         Options may be exercised in whole or in part upon payment of the
exercise price of the shares to be acquired.  Payment shall be made in cash or,
in the discretion of the Committee, in shares previously acquired by the
participant or in a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock.  The fair
market value of shares of Common Stock tendered on exercise of options shall be
determined on the date of exercise.

         As of July 1, 1995, pursuant to the recommendation of a committee of
disinterested persons appointed by the board of directors in accordance with
the terms of the Plan, the board of directors granted options to the following
officers and directors to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock:

In addition, the board of directors granted options to the following employees
and consultant to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock:

<TABLE>
                 <S>                                  <C>
                 Brender Services Limited             100,000 shares
                 Cheung Yu Shum                       500,000 shares
                 Tse Chi Kai                          300,000 shares
                 Ma Sin Ling                          500,000 shares
                 Cheung Siu Yin                        10,000 shares
                 Woo Pui Yan                           10,000 shares

                 Fu Yang Guang                        200,000 shares
                 Lin Jia Ping                         270,000 shares
</TABLE>

All of the stock options were issued in accordance with the terms of the Plan
at an exercise price of US$3.78 (the fair market value of the Common Stock as
of July 1, 1995) and would have been exercisable beginning on July 1, 1996, and
until July 1, 2005.

         As of May 20, 1996, the board of directors, in accordance with the
recommendation, with respect to stock options granted to directors and
officers, of a committee of disinterested persons appointed by the board of
directors in accordance with the terms of the Plan, reduced the exercise prices
of all of the outstanding options to US$0.42 (the fair market value of the
Common Stock as of May 20, 1996).  By virtue of this action, the outstanding
options are now exercisable beginning on May 20, 1997, and until May 20, 2006.

         On January 30, 1996, the shareholders of the Company adopted an
amendment to the Plan (a) to change the number of shares of Common Stock
subject to the Plan to that number of shares which would, in the aggregate and
if deemed outstanding, constitute 20% of the Company's then-outstanding shares
of Common Stock, as determined at the time of granting stock options, and (b)
to allow Nonqualified Stock Options, as defined in the





                                      -36-
<PAGE>   37

Plan, to be exercisable in less than one year (no currently outstanding options
were changed by such amendment).  Also, by virtue of the one-for-ten reverse
stock split approved by the shareholders on January 30, 1996, and made
effective by the board of directors on December 31, 1996, the number of shares
subject to each outstanding option was reduced by a factor of ten, and the
exercise price for the outstanding options was increased to US$4.20 per share
(the fair market value of the Common Stock as of May 20, 1996, multiplied by
ten).  Other terms of the outstanding options were not affected, and the
following stock options, which have been granted with respect to 240,000 shares
of Common Stock, remain outstanding:

further provides that HARC shall be responsible for certain costs and expenses
in connection with its use of the property.

         On November 5, 1994, the Farming Bureau, HARC, First Supply and Second
Supply entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement, in connection with the
Operating Subsidiaries' natural rubber purchases, materials sourcing and
procurement activities.  With respect to the natural rubber segment, the
Farming Bureau agreed to





                                      -37-
<PAGE>   38

direct the Hainan State Farms to sell to HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries on
a priority basis, and HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries have agreed to
purchase from the Hainan State Farms under the same terms and conditions as are
offered to other purchasers.  If HARC or the Operating Subsidiaries are offered
the same quantity and same price for natural rubber from a Hainan State Farm
and a non-state farm, HARC or the Operating Subsidiaries, as the case may be,
must purchase from the Hainan State Farm.  If the price offered by the Hainan
State Farm is higher than that from a non-state farm, HARC or the Operating
Subsidiaries, as the case may be, may purchase from the non-state farm.
Otherwise, there is no condition requiring the purchase of any particular
quantity of raw natural rubber from the Hainan State Farms.

         With respect to the production materials segment, the Sale and
Purchase Agreement provides that the Farming Bureau will direct the Hainan
State Farms to purchase all of their production materials and other commodities
offered by HARC and the Operating Subsidiaries under the same terms and
conditions as are offered by other suppliers.  In the case of production
material and other commodities, a Hainan State Farm requests a price quote for
a specified quantity of a particular item from HARC or the Operating
Subsidiaries, and HARC or an Operating Subsidiary provides a quote.  Upon
receiving the price quote, the Hainan State Farm can obtain quotes from other
suppliers based on the same quantity of the requested item.  The Hainan State
Farm must inform HARC or the Operating Subsidiaries, as the case may be, of the
amounts of the other quotes and, if any of the quotes are lower, HARC or the
Operating Subsidiaries have the right to lower its quote to the level of the
competing quote.  If HARC or an Operating Subsidiary matches the competing
quote based upon the same quantity of item requested, the Hainan State Farm
must purchase the item from HARC or the applicable Operating Subsidiary.
Otherwise, the Hainan State Farm can purchase the item from the competing
supplier.  The Sale and Purchase Agreement has a term of 15 years and, subject
to applicable law, may not be terminated earlier except upon the agreement of
the parties.  The Sale and Purchase Agreement will expire on November 5, 2009.
On March 30, 1995, parties entered into a Supplementary Agreement which
clarified certain terms of the Sale and Purchase Agreement among the parties
dated November 5, 1994, including the definitions of "annual gross profit
margin" and "rubber sales revenue." The Supplementary Agreement is effective as
long as the Sale and Purchase Agreement remains effective.

         On November 5, 1994, the Farming Bureau and HARC entered into an
Agreement on Service and Cooperation, pursuant to which the Farming Bureau has
agreed to grant to HARC certain land use and development rights related to the
land on which the warehouses, factories, and other industrial and office
facilities of HARC and the Operating Facilities are located and to provide
certain related services to HARC.  In consideration of the foregoing, HARC
shall pay to the Farming Bureau an annual service fee equivalent to 10% of the
consolidated after-tax profit of HARC up to a maximum of Rmb5 million
(US$602,410), provided that HARC's consolidated after-tax profit, as computed
in accordance to U.S. GAAP and audited by internationally recognized
accountants, shall not be less than Rmb40 million (US$4,819,277).  For the two
years ended December 31, 1994 and 1995, no such payment was made by HARC under
the Agreement because the financial criteria for such payment was not met.  For
the year ended December 31, 1996, the maximum amount of Rmb5 million
(US$602,410) was paid by HARC to the Farming Bureau.

         On March 15, 1995, First Supply entered into an Agreement on
Administrative Expenses Apportionment with Jin Long Corporation ("Jin Long"), a
PRC company which is owned by the Farming Bureau, pursuant to which First
Supply agreed to provide certain capital resources, office equipment, warehouse
usage and personnel resources to Jin Long in exchange for a payment from Jin
Long to First Supply of Rmb3 million (US$361,446) and Rmb3 million (US$361,446)
for each of the year 1995 and 1996, respectively.

         On March 15, 1995, Second Supply entered into an Agreement on
Administrative Expenses Apportionment with Jin Huan Corporation ("Jin Huan"), a
PRC company which is owned by the Farming Bureau, pursuant to which Second
Supply agreed to provide certain capital resources, office equipment, warehouse
usage and personnel resources to Jin Huan in exchange for a payment from Jin
Huan to Second Supply of Rmb3 million (US$361,446) and Rmb3 million
(US$361,446) for each of the year 1995 and 1996, respectively.

         On March 30, 1995, HARC, the Operating Subsidiaries and the Farming
Bureau entered into an Agreement on Rubber Purchase Deposits, pursuant to which
the Farming Bureau guarantees the supply of a minimum of 120,000 tons (the
"Guaranteed Quantity") of natural rubber for each of the next three years.  The
Operating Subsidiaries are not obligated to purchase the Guaranteed Quantity.
In consideration of this guarantee, the Operating Subsidiaries have maintained
a purchase deposit on a rolling basis equivalent to 15% of the Guaranteed
Quantity multiplied by the average market price of natural rubber for the
previous quarter.  In return, a purchase discount is offered to the Operating
Subsidiaries for the purchase of natural rubber from the Hainan State Farms.
The Agreement has a term of 15 years.

         As of March 31, 1995, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement
with several of its shareholders whereby the Company's outstanding indebtedness
to those shareholders, in the amount of approximately





                                      -38-
<PAGE>   39

US$6,400,000, was exchanged for 6,400,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock,
which was authorized and issued by the Company as of that date.  The shares of
Series A Preferred Stock were issued pursuant to the Exchange Agreement to the
shareholders as follows:  Hong Wah Investment Holdings Limited (2,432,000
shares), Everbright Finance & Investment Co.  Ltd. (1,184,000 shares), Worlder
International Company Limited (1,184,000 shares), and Silverich Limited
(1,600,000 shares).

         As of March 31, 1995, the Company adopted a Stock Option Plan (the
"Plan") pursuant to which the Company's Board of Directors, or a committee
thereof at the Board's discretion, is authorized to grant stock options to
officers, directors, key employees, consultants and affiliates of the Company.
Initially, 2,400,000 shares of Common Stock were authorized for issuance under
the Plan.  As of July 1, 1995, the Board, in accordance with the
recommendation, with respect to stock options granted to directors and
officers, of a committee of disinterested persons appointed by the board of
directors in accordance with the terms of the Plan, granted options for all
2,400,000 shares of Common Stock authorized under the Plan to various officers,
directors and employees of the Company and to a consultant of the Company.  As
of May 20, 1996, the Board, in accordance with the recommendation, with respect
to stock options granted to directors and officers, of a committee of
disinterested persons appointed by the board of directors in accordance with
the terms of the Plan, reduced the exercise prices of all of the outstanding
options to US$0.42 (the fair market value of the Common Stock as of May 20,
1996).  By virtue of this action, the outstanding options became exercisable
beginning on May 20, 1997, and until May 20, 2006.  On December 30, 1996, the
shareholders of the Company adopted an amendment to the Plan (a) to change the
number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Plan to that number of shares
which would, in the aggregate and if deemed outstanding, constitute 20% of the
Company's then-outstanding shares of Common Stock, as determined at the time of
granting stock options, and (b) to allow Nonqualified Stock Options, as defined
in the Plan, to be exercisable in less than one year (no currently outstanding
options were changed by such amendment).  Also, by virtue of the one-for-ten
reverse stock split approved by the shareholders on December 30, 1996, and made
effective by the board of directors on December 31, 1996, the number of shares
subject to each outstanding option was reduced by a factor of ten, and the
exercise price for the outstanding options was increased to US$4.20 per share
(the fair market value of the Common Stock as of May 20, 1996, multiplied by
ten).  Other terms of the outstanding options were not affected, and all of the
outstanding stock options, which have been granted with respect to 240,000
shares of Common Stock, remain outstanding.  See "Security Ownership of Certain
Beneficial Owners and Management."

         As of April 30, 1995, the Company entered into a consulting agreement
with Brender Services Limited pursuant to which Brender Services Limited agreed
to provide accounting and consulting services to the Company for a period of
five years commencing on May 1, 1995.  In consideration of the services to be
rendered by Brender Services Limited, the Company agreed to pay a consultancy
fee of HK$170,000 (US$21,964) per month during the first two years of the term
of the consulting agreement and a fee to be agreed upon by the parties, but not
less than HK$170,000 (US$21,964) per month, for the remaining three years of
the term.  The Company also agreed to reimburse Brender Services Limited for
all out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with rendering services under
the agreement.  During the year ended December 31, 1996, a consulting fee of
HK$2,040,000 (US$263,566) was paid to Brender Services Limited.

         As of August 1, 1995, Billion Luck entered into an Employment
Agreement with Han Jian Zhun.  Mr. Han Jian Zhun is presently the vice
president and a director of the Company and the president of HARC, but, in
accordance with the terms of the Employment Agreement, Mr. Han Jian Zhun has
been employed by Billion Luck to perform such duties with respect to Billion
Luck as Billion Luck's Board of Directors shall from time to time determine.
Mr. Han Jian Zhun shall receive a base salary of HK$12,000 (US$1,550) annually,
which base salary shall be adjusted on each anniversary of the Employment

greater amount as Billion Luck's Board of Directors may determine.  The
Employment Agreement has a term of three (3) years unless earlier terminated as
provided therein.

         As of August 1, 1995, Billion Luck entered into an Employment
Agreement with Li Fei Lie.  Mr Li is presently the Project Manager of the
Company and the vice president and a director of HARC, but, in accordance with
the terms of the Employment Agreement, Mr. Li has been employed by Billion Luck
to perform such duties with respect to Billion Luck as Billion Luck's Board of
Directors shall from time to time determine.  Mr. Li shall receive a base

years unless earlier terminated as provided therein.

         During the two fiscal years ended December 31, 1995 and 1996, the
Operating Subsidiaries engaged in the trading of natural rubber futures
contracts through a broker owned by Jin Huan Corporation ("Jin Huan"), a PRC
company which is owned by the Farming Bureau.  These transactions resulted in
payments of handling fees by the





                                      -39-
<PAGE>   40

Operating Subsidiaries to the broker which amounted to Rmb4.4 million
(US$530,120) and Rmb3.5 million (US$421,687) in 1995 and 1996, respectively.

         On March 25, 1996, HARC entered into a Loan Agreement with the Farming
Bureau by which HARC borrowed Rmb35,867,857 (US$4,321,429) in order to more
effectively utilize capital raised and to enable HARC to more effectively plan
for its production operations and new investment projects for fiscal year 1996.
The loan is interest-free and is to be repaid by conversion of the loan
into registered capital of HARC upon the approval for such conversion by
relevant government authorities.

         On December 31, 1996, a supplementary agreement was entered into
between the same parties by which a new article was created to impose a right
of set off against the loan or any additional loan made by the Farming Bureau
to HARC against any amounts due to HARC by the Farming Bureau and/or its
subsidiary companies and affiliates.

         On March 25, 1996, HARC entered into a Loan Agreement with the Company
by which HARC borrowed Rmb45,650,000 (US$5,500,000) in order to more
effectively utilize capital raised and to enable HARC to more effectively plan
for its production operations and new investment projects for fiscal year 1996.
The loan is interest-free, and it is to be repaid by conversion of the loan
into registered capital of HARC upon the approval for such conversion by
relevant government authorities.

         On July 22, 1996, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement with
Everbright Finance & Investment Co.  Limited, pursuant to which all 6,400,000
outstanding shares of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock held by Everbright
were exchanged for 32,000,000 shares of Common Stock, which were subject to
substantial restrictions.  Such restrictions included a waiver for seven years
of rights to dividends and distributions upon dissolution and liquidation of
the Company, and a waiver for eight years of the ability to have the shares

         On August 9, 1996, HARC entered into a rental agreement with the
Hainan Farming Bureau Testing Center, an affiliate of the Farming Bureau
located on the same floor of the building where HARC's headquarters is located.

approximately 314 square meters.

         As of October 1, 1996, the Farming Bureau, Guilinyang Farm and Billion
Luck entered into a Shareholders' Agreement on Business Restructuring by which
the operations of HARC, First Supply and Second Supply were restructured with
effect from October 1, 1996.  The restructuring was aimed to simplify and
streamline the corporate structure of the Operating Subsidiaries by
consolidating the various trading and servicing divisions into a few principal
trading and servicing divisions.  Certain non-core assets, liabilities and
surplus employees were transferred to the Farming Bureau.

         As of October 1, 1996, and concurrent with the execution of the
Shareholders' Agreement on Business Restructuring, the Farming Bureau, HARC,

Preferred stock.  The terms of the Series B Preferred stock were amended by the
Board of Directors in connection with the new Exchange Agreement, and such
Series B Preferred stock is not convertible and has no dividend rights or
rights to receive distributions upon dissolution and liquidation of the
Company.  The Series B Preferred stock also may not be included in any
registration statement filed by the Company, and the Company will not take any
action to facilitate the registration of the Series B Preferred stock, until

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
China Resources Development Inc

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of China Resources
Development Inc (the "Company") and subsidiaries (collectively the "Group") as
of December 31, 1995 and 1996, and the related consolidated statements of
income, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the years ended
December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996. These consolidated financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the
Group at December 31, 1995 and 1996, and the consolidated results of its
operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1995 and
1996, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.

         (ii)     a reverse stock split of 6.67 to 1 such that, immediately
                  prior to the closing under the Acquisition Agreement, there
                  were 120,000 issued and outstanding shares of common stock of
                  US$0.001 par value, after adjusting for a reverse stock split
                  in 1996 (note 13), and no other debt or equity securities of
                  Magenta were outstanding; and

         (iii)    the issuance to the Billion Luck Shareholders of an aggregate
                  of 1,080,000 shares of common stock of the Company, after
                  adjusting for the reverse stock split in 1996, in exchange
                  for all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of
                  Billion Luck.

         As a result of the closing of the Acquisition Agreement, the Billion
         Luck Shareholders owned 90% of the resulting outstanding common stock
         of the Company.

         The above transaction has been treated as a recapitalization of
         Billion Luck with Billion Luck as the acquirer (the "Reverse
         Acquisition"). Accordingly, the historical financial statements prior
         to December 2, 1994 are those of Billion Luck.

         Billion Luck was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands (the
         "BVI") on December 14, 1993. Billion Luck's principal activity is to
         conduct activities through its subsidiary companies and its principal
         asset is a 56% equity interest in Hainan Agricultural Resources
         Company Limited ("Hainan Agricultural").

         Pursuant to an agreement dated January 31, 1994 between Billion Luck,
         Guilinyang State Farm, and the Hainan Farming Bureau (the "Farming
         Bureau"), a division of the Ministry of Agriculture of the People's
         Republic of China (the "PRC"), Hainan Agricultural was established as
         a joint stock company in the PRC on June 28, 1994 to act as the
         holding company of First Goods And Materials Supply And Sales
         Corporation ("First Supply") and Second Goods And Materials Supply And
         Sales Corporation ("Second Supply") which are principally engaged in
         the distribution of natural rubber and the procurement of materials,
         supplies and other agricultural products.

1.       ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES (continued)

         Hainan Agricultural has a registered capital of RMB100,000. The
         contributions to the registered capital are as follows:

         Billion Luck                                               56%
         Guilinyang State Farm                                       5%
         Farming Bureau                                             39%


2.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The consolidated financial statements included the accounts of the
         Company and its subsidiaries (collectively the "Group") as if the
         Reverse Acquisition as set out in note 1 had been completed on
         December 14, 1993.

         The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with
         accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
         America ("US GAAP"). This basis of accounting differs from that used
         in the statutory financial statements of the subsidiaries in the PRC
         which are prepared in accordance with the accounting principles and
         the relevant financial regulations in the PRC.

         The principal adjustment made to conform with US GAAP was the
         write-off of pre-operating expenses in the period of occurrence.

3.       SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         (a)      Basis of consolidation

                  The consolidated financial statements of the Company include
                  the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. The results
                  of the subsidiaries of Billion Luck are consolidated from
                  their effective dates of acquisition. All material
                  intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated
                  on consolidation.

         (b)      Cash and cash equivalents

                  The Group considers cash and cash equivalents to include cash
                  on hand and demand deposits with banks with original terms to
                  maturity of three months or less.

                  At December 31, 1995 and 1996, cash and cash equivalents
                  included foreign currency deposits equivalent to RMB17,839
                  (US$2,003 and HK$1,092) and RMB37,772 (US$3,445 and
                  HK$8,578), respectively.

3.       SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

         (c)      Inventories

                  Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and market value.
                  Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method.

         (d)      Fixed assets and depreciation

                  Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated
                  depreciation.

                  Depreciation of fixed assets is calculated on the
                  straight-line basis to write off the cost less estimated
                  residual value of each asset over its estimated useful life.
                  The principal annual rates used for this purpose are as
                  follows:

                  Buildings                                                4%
                  Leasehold improvements             Over the term of the lease
                  Machinery, equipment and motor vehicles                 8-10%

         (e)      Investments

                  Investments are stated at cost less provisions for known
                  losses and permanent diminutions in values, if any.

         (f)      Foreign currency translations

                  The subsidiaries' financial records except for Billion Luck
                  are maintained and the statutory financial statements are
                  stated in Renminbi ("RMB"), the national currency of the PRC.

                  Foreign currency transactions and monetary assets and
                  liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated
                  into RMB at the respective applicable rates of exchange
                  quoted by the People's Bank of China (the "Unified Exchange
                  Rate"). Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in
                  foreign currencies are translated into RMB at the applicable
                  Unified Exchange Rate at the respective balance sheet dates.
                  The resulting exchange gains or losses are credited or
                  charged to the consolidated statements of income.

                  The books and records of the Company and Billion Luck are
                  maintained in United States dollars ("US$") and Hong Kong
                  dollars ("HK$"), respectively. The records of the Company and
                  Billion Luck are remeasured into RMB using the respective
                  applicable Unified Exchange Rate prevailing at the date of
                  the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities in HK$ and
                  other foreign currencies are translated using the applicable
                  Unified Exchange Rate at the balance sheet dates. The
                  resulting exchange gains or losses are credited or charged to
                  the consolidated statements of income.

3.       SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

         (f)      Foreign currency translations (continued)

                  The translation of amounts from RMB into US$ for the
                  convenience of the reader has been made at the Unified
                  Exchange Rate quoted by the People's Bank of China on
                  December 31, 1996 of US$1.00 = RMB8.30, and accordingly,
                  differs from the underlying foreign currency amounts. No
                  representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been,
                  or could be, converted into US$ at that rate on December 31,
                  1996 or at any other date.

                  The market risks associated with changes in exchange rates
                  and the restrictions over the convertibility of RMB into
                  foreign currencies are discussed in note 22.

         (g)      Revenue recognition

                  Sales represent the invoiced value of goods sold, net of
                  returns. Revenue is recognized upon delivery of goods to
                  customers.

         (h)      Retirement benefits

                  Retirement benefits paid to retired employees are charged to
                  the statements of income as services are provided.

         (i)      Goodwill

                  Goodwill is amortised on the straight-line basis over 40
                  years.

         (j)      Earnings per share

                  The computation of primary earnings per share and pro forma
                  primary earnings per share for the year ended December 31,
                  1996 is based on the weighted average number of common stock
                  outstanding after giving effect to dilutive stock options,
                  which are included as common stock equivalents using the
                  treasury stock method and assumed to be converted to common
                  stock. The number of shares used in computing the primary
                  earnings per share was 3,752,682 as if the ten-to-one reverse
                  stock split of the Company's common stock as set out in note
                  13 ("Reverse Stock Split") had been completed at the
                  beginning of the year. Fully diluted earnings per share is
                  not materially different from primary earnings per share.

                  The computation of primary earnings per share and pro forma
                  primary earnings per share for the year ended December 31,
                  1995 is based on the weighted average number of common stock
                  outstanding after giving effect to dilutive stock options and
                  series B convertible preferred stock, which are included as
                  common stock equivalents using the treasury stock method and
                  assumed to be converted to common stock, respectively. The
                  number of shares used in computing the primary earnings per
                  share was 1,232,607 as if the Reverse Stock Split had been
                  completed at the beginning of the year. Fully diluted
                  earnings per share is not materially different from primary
                  earnings per share.

3.       SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

         (j)      Earnings per share (continued)

                  For the year ended December 31, 1994, primary earnings per
                  share is based on an aggregate of 1,200,000 shares of common
                  stock outstanding as if the Reverse Acquisition and the
                  Reverse Stock Split had been completed at the beginning of
                  the year.

         (k)      Income taxes

                  Income taxes have been provided using the liability method
                  in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
                  Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes".

         (l)      Futures contracts

                  The Group enters into natural rubber and coffee bean
                  commodity futures contracts to hedge the price risk
                  associated with existing natural rubber and coffee bean
                  inventories and certain firm commitments for the purchase of
                  natural rubber. Any gains or losses on qualifying hedges are
                  recognized as an adjustment of the carrying amount of the
                  inventories being hedged or are deferred and included as part
                  of the cost of inventories received under the firm purchase
                  commitments.

                  As of December 31, 1996, the Group had deferred gains from
                  such contracts for the hedging of existing inventories of
                  RMB6,715 which was adjusted to the carrying value of the
                  inventories being hedged.

                  As of December 31, 1995, the Group had deferred losses from
                  such contracts for the hedging of firm purchase commitments
                  of RMB5,054 which was recorded as other current assets.

                  The Group also enters into natural rubber commodity futures
                  contracts that are not specific hedges and gains or losses
                  resulting from changes in the market value of these types of
                  futures contracts are recognized as income in the period of
                  the change.

                  For the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Group
                  realized a net gain of RMB1,374 and RMB10,614, respectively,
                  on such transactions (note 5).

         (m)      Use of estimates

                  The preparation of consolidated financial statements in
                  conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates
                  and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the
                  consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.
                  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

6.       REORGANIZATION EXPENSES

         During the year ended December 31, 1994, concurrent with the issuance
         to the Billion Luck Shareholders an aggregate of 10,800,000 shares of
         common stock of the Company in exchange for all of the issued and
         outstanding capital stock of Billion Luck, reorganization expenses
         were incurred which reduced net income by RMB3,029. The reorganization
         expenses included RMB2,103 and a 10% shareholding in the Company
         valued at RMB648 for the acquisition of the Company and RMB278 of
         consultancy fees and certain corporate reorganization costs incurred.

7.       INCOME TAXES

         It is management's intention to reinvest all the income attributable
         to the Company earned by its operations outside the United States of
         America up to December 31, 1996. Accordingly, no United States
         corporate income taxes have been provided in these financial
         statements.

         Under current British Virgin Islands' law, any dividends the Group
         will distribute in future, and capital gains arising from the Group's
         investments are not subject to income taxes in the British Virgin
         Islands.

         Being wholly-owned subsidiaries of Hainan Agricultural, a Sino-foreign
         joint stock company having 56% of its outstanding shares held by a
         foreign owner, First Supply and Second Supply are governed by the
         Income Tax Law of the People's Republic of China concerning Foreign
         Investment Enterprises and Foreign Enterprises and various local
         income tax laws (the "Income Tax Laws"). Since First Supply and Second
         Supply are located in Hainan, a Special Economic Zone in the PRC,
         management expects that these subsidiaries will be entitled, from the
         date of completion of the corporate restructuring, to a preferential
         tax rate of 15% on income as reported in their statutory financial
         statements. Management is still in the process of registering First
         Supply and Second Supply with the PRC tax authority. A full tax
         provision at 15% on income of First Supply and Second Supply has been
         made in the financial statements.

         Hainan Agricultural is subject to a tax rate of 15% on income reported
         in its statutory financial statements. However, Hainan Agricultural
         has been granted a tax holiday under the Income Tax Laws with a tax
         exemption in the first year which is the period from June 28, 1994
         (date of registration) to December 1994 (tax saving attributable to
         the Group of RMB281 or RMB0.23 per share, after adjusting for the
         Reverse Stock Split in 1996), and a 50% tax deduction in the second
         year of operation which is the year ended December 31, 1995 (tax
         saving attributable to the Group of RMB209 or RMB0.17 per share, after
         adjusting for the Reverse Stock Split in 1996). There will be no tax
         deduction thereafter.

         Pretax income from continuing operations for the years ended December
         31, 1994, 1995 and 1996 was originated in the PRC.

7.       INCOME TAXES (continued)

         A reconciliation between the actual income tax expenses and income
         taxes computed by applying the statutory PRC tax rate applicable to
         foreign investment enterprises operating in Hainan, a Special Economic
         Zone in the PRC, to the income before income taxes is as follows:

         Undistributed earnings of the Company's foreign subsidiaries amounted
         to RMB55,190 at December 31, 1996 (1995: RMB22,995). Because those
         earnings are considered to be indefinitely invested, no provision for
         United States corporate income taxes on those earnings has been
         provided. Upon distribution of those earnings in the form of dividends
         or otherwise, the Company would be subject to United States corporate
         income taxes. Unrecognized deferred United States corporate income tax
         in respect of these undistributed earnings as at December 31, 1996 was
         RMB18,765 (1995: RMB7,818).

         No deferred income taxes have been provided based on the liability
         method prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
         109 because the effect of all temporary differences is considered
         minimal.

11.      BANK LOANS

         The Group's short term bank loans are all denominated in Renminbi and
         are used primarily to finance working capital needs. The short term
         bank loans are generally secured by guarantees given by the Farming
         Bureau, with original maturities not more than one year at a weighted
         average interest rate of 14.32% per annum as at December 31, 1996
         (1995: 18.25% per annum).

         The Farming Bureau has agreed to arrange alternative financing for
         First Supply and Second Supply to meet their liabilities at any time
         should the banks terminate the bank financing.

         Pursuant to an Asset and Staff Transfer Agreement, all the bank loans
         will be transferred to the Farming Bureau once the proper approval has
         been obtained from the relevant banks, and effective from October 1,
         1996, interest on the bank loans have been borne by the Farming Bureau
         until the effective transfer of the bank loans (notes 15(n) and 25).

12.      SHORT TERM ADVANCES

         As of December 31, 1995, the Group had short term advances of
         RMB86,917 from China Commodity Futures Exchange Inc, a futures
         exchange in Hainan, the PRC, to finance the Group's working capital
         needs in the purchase of natural rubber. The amount was unsecured,
         interest-free and was repaid in full in 1996.

13.      SHARE CAPITAL

         On December 2, 1994, pursuant to the Reverse Acquisition set out in
         note 1, the Company underwent a reverse stock split such that,
         immediately prior to the closing of the Acquisition Agreement, there
         were 120,000 issued and outstanding shares of common stock of
         US$0.001 (RMB0.008) par value each. On closing of the Acquisition
         Agreement, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding
         shares of Billion Luck by the issue of an aggregate of 1,080,000
         shares of common stock of US$0.001 (RMB0.008) par value each of the
         Company, after adjusting for the Reverse Stock Split in 1996. The
         difference between the nominal value of the Company's shares issued
         under the Reverse Acquisition and the paid-up value of the shares of
         Billion Luck was credited as additional paid-in capital.

         The Board of Directors of the Company approved an Action by Written
         Consent dated as of March 31, 1995 to amend the Company's Articles of
         Incorporation to authorize 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, of
         which 6,400,000 shares were designated as series A preferred stock,
         par value US$1 (RMB8.32) per share.

13.      SHARE CAPITAL (continued)

         Pursuant to the above-mentioned Action by Written Consent and an
         exchange agreement between the Company and certain shareholders of the
         Company, long term loans from certain shareholders of the Company of
         US$6,400 (RMB53,930) were exchanged for 6,400,000 shares of series A
         preferred stock of the Company.

         The series A preferred stock ranks senior to common stock with respect
         to dividends and other distribution rights and rights upon
         liquidation, winding up and dissolution. Each holder of the series A
         preferred stock shall have that number of votes on all matters
         submitted to shareholders equal to the number of shares of series A
         preferred stock held by such holder. The holders of series A preferred
         stock are entitled to receive noncumulative annual dividends payable
         starting from January 1, 1997 at a rate of 4% per annum prior to the
         payment of dividends on the common stock. The Board of Directors of
         the Company has the option to redeem the series A preferred stock in
         whole or in part at any date on or after January 1, 1997 on not less
         than 10 days' notice to the holders.

         Pursuant to an exchange agreement dated as of July 22, 1996 between
         the Company and the holder of series A preferred stock at that date
         (the "Holder"), all the 6,400,000 outstanding shares of series A
         preferred stock of the Company were exchanged on a five-for-one basis
         to 3,200,000 shares of common stock of the Company (the "Restricted
         Common Stock"), after adjusting for the Reverse Stock Split in 1996,
         and the Holder waived its rights to participate in dividends and
         distributions on dissolution or liquidation in connection with the
         Restricted Common Stock for a period of seven years and accepted
         limitations on future registration. According to a valuation of the
         Restricted Common Stock and series A preferred stock performed by an
         independent professional valuer in the United States of America, the
         exchange ratio of five Restricted Common Stock for one series A
         preferred stock of the Company represents an exchange at fair market
         values.

         On December 9, 1995, the Company designated a series of 2,500 shares
         of the Company's authorized preferred stock as series B convertible
         preferred stock, par value US$0.001 (RMB0.008) per share.

13.      SHARE CAPITAL (continued)

         The Company issued a Confidential Offshore Offering Memorandum on
         October 20, 1995 and a Supplementary Memorandum on December 7, 1995 to
         offer for sale to certain non-residents of the United States of
         America in an offshore offering in reliance upon Regulation S
         promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, series B
         convertible preferred stock of the Company (the "First Share
         Offering"). As of December 31, 1995, gross proceeds of US$3,700
         (RMB30,825) were received on the issuance of 370 shares of series B
         convertible preferred stock at a price of US$10,000 (RMB83,311) per
         share. As of March 8, 1996, the closing date of the First Share
         Offering, further gross proceeds of US$8,830 (RMB73,511) were received
         upon the issuance of 883 shares of series B convertible preferred
         stock at a price of US$10,000 (RMB83,251) per share. On June 30, 1996,
         the Company issued another Confidential Offshore Offering Memorandum
         in another offshore offering (the "Second Share Offering"), with terms
         similar to the First Share Offering. As of July 8, 1996, the closing
         date of the Second Share Offering, gross proceeds of US$4,000
         (RMB33,300) were received on the issuance of 400 shares of series B
         convertible preferred stock at a price of US$10,000 (RMB83,251) per
         share. After deduction of share offering costs, net proceeds of
         RMB19,554 and RMB72,520 were received on the issuance of 370 shares
         and 1,283 shares of series B convertible preferred stock for the years
         ended December 31, 1995 and 1996, respectively.

         Each share of series B convertible preferred stock is convertible at
         the holder's option into the Company's common stock at any time during
         the two-year period commencing on the 45th day following the date of
         the closing of the sale of such shares (the "Conversion Period"),
         based on a conversion formula set out in the terms of the series B
         convertible preferred stock.

         During the year ended December 31, 1996, all the 1,653 shares of
         series B convertible preferred stock were converted into 4,579,004
         shares of common stock of the Company, after adjusting for the Reverse
         Stock Split in 1996, in accordance with the terms of the share
         offerings.

         On December 30, 1996, the Company's shareholders approved a ten-to-one
         Reverse Stock Split of the Company's Common Stock, which was made
         effective by the Board of Directors on December 31, 1996. With the par
         value unchanged at US$0.001 per share, the Reverse Stock Split was
         effected by a transfer to the additional paid-in capital account. All
         references in the consolidated financial statements referring to share
         and per share amounts of the common stock of the Company have been
         adjusted retroactively for the ten-to-one Reverse Stock Split.

13.      SHARE CAPITAL (continued)

         On December 31, 1996, the Board of Directors adopted a resolution
         providing for the amendment to the designation and terms of its 2,500
         shares of authorized preferred stock previously designated as series B
         convertible preferred stock. The certificate of designation of the
         series B convertible preferred stock was amended and the stock was
         redesignated as series B preferred stock, which is no longer
         convertible. The authorized number of series B preferred stock has
         also been increased to 3,200,000 shares. Immediate before the
         redesignation, no shares of the series B convertible preferred stock
         were outstanding.

         The series B preferred stock entitles the holder to voting rights
         which are the same as the common stock of the Company. The shares of
         series B preferred stock have no rights to dividends or to
         distributions upon liquidation or dissolution of the Company and have
         limitations as to future registration.

         On December 31, 1996, the Company entered into another exchange
         agreement with the holder of the Restricted Common Stock whereby
         3,200,000 shares of the Restricted Common Stock, after adjusting for
         the Reverse Stock Split in 1996, were exchanged on an one-for-one
         basis to 3,200,000 shares of series B preferred stock which have
         restrictions that are the same or more stringent than the Restricted
         Common Stock. Unlike the Restricted Common Stock, the restrictions on
         participation of dividends and distributions on dissolution will not
         lapse through the passage of time.

14.      STOCK OPTIONS

         The Company adopted a stock option plan (the "Plan") as of March 31,
         1995. The Plan allows the Board of Directors, or a committee thereof
         at the Board's discretion, to grant stock options to officers,
         directors, key employees, consultants and affiliates of the Company.
         Initially, 240,000 shares of common stock of the Company, after
         adjusting for the Reverse Stock Split in 1996, were permitted to be
         issued and sold pursuant to options granted under the Plan. All of the
         stock options were issued in accordance with the terms of the Plan on
         July 1, 1995 to certain officers, directors, employees and consultants
         of the Group at an exercise price of US$37.8 (RMB314.50) per share
         (the fair market value of the common stock as of July 1, 1995), after
         adjusting for the Reverse Stock Split in 1996, and are exercisable
         from July 1, 1996 to July 1, 2005. On May 20, 1996, pursuant to an
         Unanimous Written Consent of the committee appointed pursuant to the
         Plan and a resolution of a special meeting of the Board of Directors
         of the Company, the exercise price was changed to US$4.20 (RMB34.86)
         per share (the fair market value of the common stock as of May 20,
         1996), after adjusting for the Reserve Stock Split in 1996. By virtue
         of that action, the outstanding options are now exercisable beginning
         on May 20, 1997 and until May 20, 2006. All stock options remained
         outstanding at the date of preparation of these financial statements.

         On December 30, 1996, a shareholders' meeting was held authorizing an
         amendment of the Plan increasing the number of common stock issuable
         under the Plan to 20% of the Company's outstanding common stock, as
         determined at the time of granting the stock options. Such shares may
         represent authorized but unissued shares as well as repurchased or
         forfeited shares for any grant under the Plan that was expired or
         unexercised. Further amendments were made to give the Board of
         Directors the ability to set a holding period of less than one year
         for non-qualified stock options.

14.      STOCK OPTIONS (continued)

         The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion
         No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25") and
         related Interpretations in accounting for its stock options because,
         as discussed below, the alternative fair value accounting provided for
         under Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial
         Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
         Compensation" ("FASB 123"), requires use of option valuation models
         that were not developed for use in valuing employee stock options.
         Under APB 25, because the exercise price of the Company's stock
         options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of
         grant, no compensation expense is recognized.

         Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is
         required by FASB 123, and has been determined as if the Company had
         accounted for its stock options under the fair value method of that
         Statement. The fair value for these options was estimated at the date
         of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following
         weighted-average assumptions for 1995 and 1996, respectively:
         risk-free interest rates of 6.50% and 6.78%; no dividend yield;
         volatility factors of the expected market price of the Company's
         common stock of 141.38% and 42.13%; and a weighted-average expected
         life of the option of 6 years.

         The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in
         estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting
         restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation
         models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including
         the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company's stock
         options have characteristics significantly different from those of
         traded options, and because changes in the subjective input
         assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in
         management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a
         reliable single measure of the fair value of its stock options.

         For the purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of
         the options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period.
         The Company's pro forma information is as follows:

15.      RELATED PARTY BALANCES AND TRANSACTIONS (continued)

         All of the amounts due from related companies are secured by a
         guarantee given by the Farming Bureau. The balances with the Farming
         Bureau and the shareholders of the Company are unsecured. A
         significant portion of transactions undertaken by the Group has been
         effected with the Farming Bureau and companies owned and/or controlled
         by the Farming Bureau, as well as with shareholders of the Company,
         which were summarized as follows:

         (a)      Sales of rubber products and procurement of materials and 
                  supplies

                  Pursuant to a sales and purchase agreement dated November 5,
                  1994 amongst the Farming Bureau, Hainan Agricultural, First
                  Supply and Second Supply, the Farming Bureau agreed to
                  guarantee the supply of natural rubber to Hainan
                  Agricultural, First Supply and Second Supply for a period of
                  15 years from November 5, 1994 under the same terms and
                  conditions as are offered to other purchasers of natural
                  rubber with a first right of refusal to First Supply and
                  Second Supply. First Supply and Second Supply also, from time
                  to time, sourced natural rubber from other farms not owned or
                  controlled by the Farming Bureau. The Farming Bureau also
                  agreed to purchase certain products sourced by First Supply
                  and Second Supply for a period of 15 years from November 5,
                  1994 at prices acceptable to all parties with a first right
                  of refusal to First Supply and Second Supply.

         (b)      Sales and purchases of natural rubber

                  The Farming Bureau allows First Supply and Second Supply to
                  set the selling price of natural rubber according to market
                  conditions, and guarantees a minimum gross profit margin of
                  3.5% (before purchase discounts set out below) earned by
                  First Supply and Second Supply on natural rubber purchased
                  from the Farms.

                  On March 30, 1995, the Group entered into an agreement with
                  the Farming Bureau pursuant to which, with effect from March
                  30, 1995, the Farming Bureau guarantees the supply of a
                  minimum of 120,000 tonnes (the "Guaranteed Quantity") of
                  natural rubber for each of the next 3 years. The Group is not
                  obligated to purchase the Guaranteed Quantity. In
                  consideration for this, the Group has maintained a purchase
                  deposit with related companies or the Farming Bureau on a
                  rolling basis equivalent to 15% of the Guaranteed Quantity
                  multiplied by the average market price of natural rubber for
                  the previous quarter. In return, a purchase discount is
                  offered to the Group for the purchase of natural rubber from
                  the Farms.

                  administrative expenses and for their use of the Group's
                  office equipment, warehouses and staff.

         (l)      Handling fees paid on trading of natural rubber futures
                  The Group engaged in the trading of natural rubber futures
                  through a broker owned by Jin Huan and paid handling fees to
                  the broker amounting to RMB3,451 for the year ended December
                  31, 1996 (1995: RMB4,424 and 1994: Nil).

         (m)      Set-off of trade receivables
                  Pursuant to a set-off agreement dated November 5, 1994 (the
                  "Agreement") amongst the Farming Bureau, Billion Luck,
                  Guilinyang State Farm, Hainan Agricultural, First Supply and
                  Second Supply, First Supply and Second Supply's trade
                  receivables outstanding as of June 28, 1994, the date of the
                  establishment of Hainan Agricultural, that had remained
                  unsettled as at September 30, 1994 were set off against the
                  respective current account balances payable to the Farming
                  Bureau. The total amount set-off under the Agreement was
                  RMB100,947.

         (n)      Restructuring of operations
                  In the third quarter of 1996, the Group initiated a plan to
                  restructure its operations in Hainan, the PRC (the
                  "Restructuring"). Pursuant to a Shareholders' Agreement on
                  Business Restructuring (the "Restructuring Agreement"), the
                  operations of Hainan Agricultural, First Supply and Second
                  Supply (collectively, the "Operating Subsidiaries") were
                  restructured effective from October 1, 1996. The
                  Restructuring has resulted in the simplification of corporate
                  structure by consolidating the operations of several trading
                  and servicing divisions and the transfer of certain assets,
                  liabilities, including certain amounts due from the Farms and
                  other related companies of the Farming Bureau, and surplus
                  employees to the Farming Bureau, a 39% shareholder of Hainan
                  Agricultural. In addition, as part of the Restructuring, bank
                  loans of the Operating Subsidiaries will be transferred to
                  the Farming Bureau once the proper approval has been obtained
                  from the relevant banks (note 25). Despite the downsizing of
                  several operations, the Restructuring has not resulted in the
                  discontinuance of any line of businesses as all the
                  operations have been taken up by the remaining divisions.

                  Pursuant to an Asset and Staff Transfer Agreement (the
                  "Transfer Agreement"), the value of the assets and
                  liabilities transferred was determined based on their fair
                  value at the effective date of transfer as determined by a
                  professional independent valuer in the PRC. Based on their
                  valuation, there are no material differences between the fair
                  value and the carrying values (as determined under US GAAP)
                  of those assets and liabilities transferred. The Farming
                  Bureau has endeavored to take over all the transferred
                  employees and arrangements have been made with an insurance
                  company controlled by the Farming Bureau to transfer the
                  retirement plan (note 23) of those employees to the Farming
                  Bureau.

18.      CONCENTRATION OF RISK

         Concentration of credit risk:

         Financial instruments that potentially subject the Group to
         significant concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash
         deposits, trade receivables and amounts due from the Farming Bureau
         and related companies.

         (i)      Cash deposits

                  The Group places its cash deposits with an international bank
                  and various PRC Stated-owned financial institutions.

         (ii)     Trade receivables

                  The Group sells to customers located throughout the PRC.
                  Concentration of credit risk with respect to trade
                  receivables is limited due to the large number of entities
                  comprising the Group's customer base. The Group carefully
                  assesses the financial strength of its customers and
                  generally does not require collateral.

         (iii)    Amounts due from the Farming Bureau and related companies

                  The Farming Bureau has guaranteed the recoverability of all
                  the amounts due from related companies, all of which are
                  State-owned entities owned and/or controlled by the Farming
                  Bureau.

         The Farming Bureau is a division of the Ministry of
         Agriculture of the People's Republic of China.

         Current vulnerability due to certain concentrations:

         The Group's operating assets and primary source of income and cash
         flows are its interests in its subsidiaries in the PRC. The value of
         the Group's interests in these subsidiaries may be adversely affected
         by significant political, economic and social uncertainties in the
         PRC. Although the PRC government has been pursuing economic reform
         policies for the past 18 years, no assurance can be given that the PRC
         government will continue to pursue such policies or that such policies
         may not be significantly altered, especially in the event of a change
         in leadership, social or political disruption or unforeseen
         circumstances affecting the PRC's political, economic and social life.
         There is also no guarantee that the PRC government's pursuit of
         economic reforms will be consistent or effective.

18.      CONCENTRATION OF RISK (continued)

         The Group is dependent on the Farming Bureau for providing
         substantially all of the supply of natural rubber. While Hainan
         Agricultural, First Supply and Second Supply have entered into an
         agreement with the Farming Bureau which requires the Farming Bureau to
         prioritize allocation of natural rubber in favor of First Supply and
         Second Supply (the "Operating Subsidiaries"), there can be no
         assurances that this agreement will result in continued allocations of
         satisfactory supplies of natural rubber.

         Additionally, the Operating Subsidiaries are dependent upon the
         Farming Bureau to purchase a significant portion of the materials and
         supplies sold by the Operating Subsidiaries in their current
         procurement operations. Although the Group and the Farming Bureau have
         entered into a Long-Term Sale and Purchase Agreement dated November 5,
         1994 (the "Sale and Purchase Agreement"), which requires the Farming
         Bureau to purchase on a priority basis from the Operating Subsidiaries
         the types of materials and supplies currently procured for it, there
         can be no assurances that the Farming Bureau will actually purchase
         such materials or supplies or that market terms will be sufficient to
         allow the Operating Subsidiaries to sell any such materials or
         supplies to the Farming Bureau on terms which are profitable to the
         Company. The Sale and Purchase Agreement has a 15 year term; however,
         its enforceability in the PRC would be subject to broad discretion and
         interpretive powers of the courts and equitable terms which allow
         either party to terminate the agreement if the other materially
         defaults. Damages for actual losses may be awarded to the
         non-defaulting party.

         Currently, a large proportion of the Group's revenue comes from the
         sale of natural rubber and the procurement of materials and supplies
         in the PRC, which is vulnerable to the increase in the level of
         competition from overseas suppliers of natural rubber and the change
         in the supply and demand relationship with companies owned and/or
         controlled by the Farming Bureau.

19.      FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

         The following methods and assumptions were used by the Group in
         estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

         (i)      Cash and cash equivalents

                  The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance
                  sheets for cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair
                  value.

         (ii)     Amounts due to/from the Farming Bureau, related companies 
                  and shareholders

                  The carrying amounts are reasonable estimates of the fair
                  values due to the short maturity of these assets and
                  liabilities.

19.      FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

         (iii)    Investments

                  Investments in PRC government bonds are stated at cost which
                  approximate their fair values.

                  It was not practicable to estimate the fair values of the
                  Group's investments in non-traded investments because of the
                  lack of quoted market prices and the inability to estimate
                  fair values without incurring excessive costs. The carrying
                  amounts of RMB11,963 and RMB12,344 at December 31, 1995 and
                  1996, respectively, represent the Group's best estimates of
                  current economic values of these investments.

         (iv)     Short-term bank loans

                  The carrying amounts of the Group's short-term bank loans
                  approximate their fair values due to their short maturity.

20.      RESERVES AND DISTRIBUTION OF PROFITS

         In accordance with the relevant PRC regulations and the articles of
         association of Hainan Agricultural (the "Articles of Association"),
         appropriations representing 10% of the net income as reflected in its
         statutory financial statements will be allocated to each of surplus
         reserve and collective welfare fund.

         Subject to certain restrictions set out in the relevant PRC
         regulations and the Articles of Association, the surplus reserve may
         be distributed to Billion Luck, the Farming Bureau and Guilinyang
         State Farm in the form of share bonus issues. The Group's share of the
         amounts transferred to the surplus reserve for the years ended
         December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996 were RMB1,328, RMB3,137 and RMB4,409,
         respectively.

         In accordance with the relevant PRC regulations and the Articles of
         Association, the collective welfare fund must be used for capital
         expenditure on staff welfare facilities. Such facilities are for the
         use of the staff and are owned by Hainan Agricultural. The Group's
         share of the amounts transferred to the collective welfare fund for
         the years ended December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996 were RMB1,329,
         RMB3,136 and RMB4,409, respectively.

         According to relevant laws and regulations in the PRC, distributable
         reserves of Hainan Agricultural and its subsidiaries are determined in
         accordance with the relevant PRC accounting rules and regulations. The
         amounts of retained earnings of Hainan Agricultural and its
         subsidiaries that are included on the consolidated balance sheets as
         of December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996 that are available for
         distribution are RMB10,626, RMB27,844 and RMB62,951, respectively.

                  (1995: RMB119,670).

22.      FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE

         The Renminbi ("RMB") is not freely convertible into foreign
         currencies.

         Effective from January 1, 1994, a single rate of exchange is quoted
         daily by the People's Bank of China (the "Unified Exchange Rate").
         However, the unification of the exchange rates does not imply
         convertibility of RMB into United States dollars ("US$") or other
         foreign currencies. All foreign exchange transactions continue to take
         place either through the Bank of China or other banks authorized to
         buy and sell foreign currencies at the exchange rates quoted by the
         People's Bank of China. Approval of foreign currency payments by the
         Bank of China or other institutions requires submitting a payment
         application form together with suppliers' invoices, shipping documents
         and signed contracts.

         The Unified Exchange Rates at December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996 were
         US$1 : RMB8.45, US$1 : RMB8.32 and US$1 : RMB8.30, respectively.

23.      RETIREMENT BENEFITS

         As stipulated by the PRC regulations, First Supply and Second Supply
         participate in a defined contribution retirement plan administered by
         a State-owned insurance company controlled by the Farming Bureau (the
         "Retirement Plan"). First Supply and Second Supply are required to
         make contributions to the Retirement Plan at a rate of 21% of the
         aggregate of basic salaries, allowances and bonus of its existing
         staff. All staff of First Supply and Second Supply are covered under
         the Retirement Plan and upon retirement, the retired staff are
         entitled to a monthly pension payment borne by the above-mentioned
         insurance company under the Retirement Plan. First Supply and Second
         Supply are not responsible for any payments beyond the contributions
         to the Retirement Plan as noted above.

         The amounts of contributions paid by First Supply and Second Supply,
         which were charged to the consolidated statements of income, amounted
         to RMB975, RMB1,591 and RMB1,588 for the years ended December 31,
         1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively.
