and the rights and duties of the Depositary in respect of the Shares deposited
thereunder and any and all other securities, property and cash from time to time
received in respect of such Shares and held thereunder (such Shares, securities,
property, and cash are herein called "Deposited Securities"). Copies of the
Deposit Agreement are on file at the Depositary's Corporate Trust Office in New
York City and at the office of the Custodian.

         The statements made on the face and reverse of this Receipt are
summaries of certain provisions of the Deposit Agreement and are qualified by
and subject to the detailed provisions of the Deposit Agreement, to which
reference is hereby made. Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the
meanings set forth in the Deposit Agreement.

2.       SURRENDER OF RECEIPTS AND WITHDRAWAL OF SHARES.

         Upon surrender at the Corporate Trust Office of the Depositary of this
Receipt, and upon payment of the fee of the Depositary provided in this Receipt,
and subject to the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement, the Owner
hereof is entitled to delivery, to him or upon his order, of the amount of
Deposited Securities at the time represented by the American Depositary Shares
for which this Receipt is issued. Delivery of such Deposited Securities may be
made by the delivery of (a) Shares in the name of the Owner hereof or as ordered
by him or by certificates properly endorsed or accompanied by proper instruments
of transfer to such Owner or as ordered by him and (b) any other securities,
property and cash to which such Owner is then entitled in respect of this
Receipt to such Owner or as ordered by him. Such delivery will be made at the
option of the Owner hereof, either at the office of the Custodian or at the
Corporate Trust Office of the Depositary, provided that the forwarding of
certificates for Shares or other Deposited Securities for such delivery at the
Corporate Trust Office of the Depositary shall be at the risk and expense of the
Owner hereof. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Deposit Agreement or
this Receipt, the surrender of outstanding Receipts and withdrawal of Deposited
Securities may be suspended only for (i) temporary delays caused by closing the
transfer books of the Depositary or the Company or the deposit of Shares in
connection with voting at a shareholders' meeting, or the payment of dividends,
(ii) the payment of fees, taxes and similar charges, and (iii) compliance with
any U.S. or foreign laws or governmental regulations relating to the Receipts or
to the withdrawal of the Deposited Securities.

3.       TRANSFERS, SPLIT-UPS, AND COMBINATIONS OF RECEIPTS.

         The transfer of this Receipt is registrable on the books of the
Depositary at its Corporate Trust Office by the Owner hereof in person or by a
duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Receipt properly endorsed for
transfer or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer and funds sufficient
to pay any applicable transfer taxes and the expenses of the Depositary and upon
compliance with such regulations, if any, as the Depositary may establish for
such purpose. This Receipt may be split into other such Receipts, or may be
combined with other such Receipts into one Receipt, evidencing the same
aggregate number of American Depositary Shares as the Receipt or Receipts

<PAGE>

                                                                     EXHIBIT 4.1

surrendered. As a condition precedent to the execution and delivery,
registration of transfer, split-up, combination, or surrender of any Receipt or
withdrawal of any Deposited Securities, the Depositary, the Custodian, or
Registrar may require payment from the depositor of Shares or the presenter of
the Receipt of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any tax, stamp duty or other
governmental charge and any stock transfer or registration fee with respect
thereto (including any such tax or charge and fee with respect to Shares being
deposited or withdrawn) and payment of any applicable fees as provided in this
Receipt, may require the production of proof satisfactory to it as to the
identity and genuineness of any signature and may also require compliance with
any regulations the Depositary may establish consistent with the provisions of
the Deposit Agreement or this Receipt.

         The delivery of Receipts against deposits of Shares generally or
against deposits of particular Shares may be suspended, or the transfer of
Receipts in particular instances may be refused, or the registration of transfer
of outstanding Receipts generally may be suspended, during any period when the
transfer books of the Depositary are closed, or if any such action is deemed
necessary or advisable by the Depositary or the Company at any time or from time
to time because of any requirement of law or of any government or governmental
body or commission, or under any provision of the Deposit Agreement or this
Receipt, or for any other reason, subject to Article (23) hereof. Without
limitation of the foregoing, the Depositary shall not knowingly accept for
deposit under the Deposit Agreement any Shares required to be registered under
the provisions of the Securities Act, unless a registration statement is in
effect as to such Shares.

4.       LIABILITY OF OWNER FOR TAXES.

         If any tax or other governmental charge shall become payable with
respect to any Receipt or any Deposited Securities represented hereby, such tax
or other governmental charge shall be payable by the Owner hereof to the
Depositary. The Depositary may refuse to effect any transfer of this Receipt or
any withdrawal of Deposited Securities represented by American Depositary Shares
evidenced by such Receipt until such payment is made, and may withhold any
dividends or other distributions, or may sell for the account of the Owner
hereof any part or all of the Deposited Securities represented by the American
Depositary Shares evidenced by this Receipt, and may apply such dividends or
other distributions or the proceeds of any such sale in payment of such tax or
other governmental charge and the Owner hereof shall remain liable for any
deficiency.

5.       WARRANTIES OF DEPOSITORS.

         Every person depositing Shares under the Deposit Agreement shall be
deemed thereby to represent and warrant that such Shares and each certificate
therefor, if applicable, are validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable and free
of any pre-emptive rights of the holders of outstanding Shares and that the
person making such deposit is duly authorized so to do. Every such person shall
also be deemed to represent that the deposit of such Shares and the sale of
Receipts evidencing American Depositary Shares representing such Shares by that
person would not be Restricted Securities. Such

representations and warranties shall survive the deposit of Shares and issuance
of Receipts.

         [REVERSE OF REGISTRANT'S SPECIMEN AMERICAN DEPOSITARY RECEIPT]

        SUMMARY OF CERTAIN ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS OF THE DEPOSIT AGREEMENT

6.       FILING PROOFS, CERTIFICATES, AND OTHER INFORMATION.

         Any person presenting Shares for deposit or any Owner or Beneficial
Owner of a Receipt may be required from time to time to file with the Depositary
or the Custodian such proof of citizenship or residence, exchange control
approval, or such information relating to the registration on the books of the
Company or the Foreign Registrar, if applicable, to execute such certificates
and to make such representations and warranties, as the Depositary may deem
necessary or proper. The Depositary may withhold the delivery or registration of
transfer of any Receipt or the distribution of any dividend or sale or
distribution of rights or of the proceeds thereof or the delivery of any
Deposited Securities until such proof or other information is filed or such
certificates are executed or such representations and warranties made. If
requested in writing, the Depositary shall, as promptly as practicable, provide
the Company, at the expense of the Company, with copies of any such proofs,
certificates or other information it receives pursuant to this Article, unless
prohibited by applicable law. No Share shall be accepted for deposit unless
accompanied by evidence satisfactory to the Depositary that any necessary
approval has been granted by any governmental body in the Cayman Islands or in
Hong Kong which is then performing the function of the regulation of currency
exchange.

7.       CHARGES OF DEPOSITARY.

         The Company agrees to pay the fees, reasonable expenses and
out-of-pocket charges of the Depositary and those of any Registrar only in
accordance with agreements in writing entered into between the Depositary and
the Company from time to time. The Depositary shall present its statement for
such charges and expenses to the Company once every three months. The charges
and expenses of the Custodian are for the sole account of the Depositary.

         The following charges shall be incurred by any party depositing or
withdrawing Shares or by any party surrendering Receipts or to whom Receipts are
issued (including, without limitation, issuance pursuant to a stock dividend or
stock split declared by the Company or an exchange of stock regarding the
Receipts or Deposited Securities or a distribution of Receipts pursuant to
Section 4.3 of the Deposit Agreement), or by Owners, as applicable: (1) taxes,
stamp duty and other governmental charges, (2) such registration fees as may
from time to time be in effect for the registration of transfers of Shares
generally on the Share register of the Company or Foreign Registrar and
applicable to transfers of Shares to or from the name of the Depositary or its
nominee or the Custodian or its nominee on the making of deposits or withdrawals
under the Deposit Agreement, (3) such cable, telex and facsimile transmission
expenses as are expressly provided in the

<PAGE>

                                                                     EXHIBIT 4.1

Deposit Agreement, (4) such expenses as are incurred by the Depositary in the
conversion of foreign currency pursuant to Section 4.5 of the Deposit Agreement,
(5) a fee of $5.00 or less per 100 American Depositary Shares (or portion
thereof) for the execution and delivery of Receipts pursuant to Section 2.3, 4.3
or 4.4 of the Deposit Agreement and the surrender of Receipts pursuant to
Section 2.5 or 6.2 of the Deposit Agreement, (6) a fee of $.02 or less per
American Depositary Share (or portion thereof) for any cash distribution made
pursuant to the Deposit Agreement, including, but not limited to Sections 4.1
through 4.4 of the Deposit Agreement, (7) a fee for the distribution of
securities pursuant to Section 4.2 of the Deposit Agreement, such fee being in
an amount equal to the fee for the execution and delivery of American Depositary
Shares referred to above which would have been charged as a result of the
deposit of such securities (for purposes of this clause 7 treating all such
securities as if they were Shares) but which securities are instead distributed
by the Depositary to Owners, (8) a fee of $.02 or less per American Depositary
Share (or portion thereof) for depositary services, which will accrue on the
last day of each calendar year and which will be payable as provided in clause
(9) below; provided, however, that no fee will be assessed under this clause (8)
to the extent a fee of $.02 was charged pursuant to clause (6) above during that
calendar year and (9) any other charge payable by the Depositary, any of the
Depositary's agents, including the Custodian, or the agents of the Depositary's
agents in connection with the servicing of Shares or other Deposited Securities
(which charge shall be assessed against Owners as of the date or dates set by
the Depositary in accordance with Section 4.6 of the Deposit Agreement and shall
be payable at the sole discretion of the Depositary by billing such Owners for
such charge or by deducting such charge from one or more cash dividends or other
cash distributions).

         The Depositary, subject to Section 2.9 of the Deposit Agreement and
Article 8 hereof, may own and deal in any class of securities of the Company and
its affiliates and in Receipts.

8.       PRE-RELEASE OF RECEIPTS.

         The Depositary may issue Receipts against the delivery by the Company
(or any agent of the Company recording Share ownership) of rights to receive
Shares from the Company (or any such agent). No such issue of Receipts will be
deemed a "Pre-Release" that is subject to the restrictions of the following
paragraph.

         Unless requested in writing by the Company to cease doing so, the
Depositary may, notwithstanding Section 2.3 of the Deposit Agreement, execute
and deliver Receipts prior to the receipt of Shares pursuant to Section 2.2 of
the Deposit Agreement ("Pre-Release"). The Depositary may, pursuant to Section
2.5 of the Deposit Agreement, deliver Shares upon the receipt and cancellation
of Receipts which have been Pre-Released, whether or not such cancellation is
prior to the termination of such Pre-Release or the Depositary knows that such
Receipt has been Pre-Released. The Depositary may receive Receipts in lieu of
Shares in satisfaction of a Pre-Release. Each Pre-Release will be (a) preceded
or accompanied by a written representation and

<PAGE>

                                                                     EXHIBIT 4.1

agreement from the person to whom Receipts are to be delivered (the
"Pre-Releasee") that the Pre-Releasee, or its customer, (i) owns the Shares or
Receipts to be remitted, as the case may be, (ii) assigns all beneficial rights,
title and interest in such Shares or Receipts, as the case may be, to the
Depositary in its capacity as such and for the benefit of the Owners, and (iii)
will not take any action with respect to such Shares or Receipts, as the case
may be, that is inconsistent with the transfer of beneficial ownership
(including, without the consent of the Depositary, disposing of such Shares or
Receipts, as the case may be), other than in satisfaction of such Pre-Release,
(b) at all times fully collateralized with cash, U.S. government securities or
such other collateral as the Depositary determines, in good faith, will provide
substantially similar liquidity and security, (c) terminable by the Depositary
on not more than five (5) business days notice, and (d) subject to such further
indemnities and credit regulations as the Depositary deems appropriate. The
number of Shares not deposited but represented by American Depositary Shares
outstanding at any time as a result of Pre-Releases will not normally exceed
thirty percent (30%) of the Shares deposited hereunder; provided, however, that
the Depositary reserves the right to disregard such limit from time to time as
it deems reasonably appropriate, and may, with the prior written consent of the
Company, change such limit for purposes of general application. The Depositary
will also set Dollar limits with respect to Pre-Release transactions to be
entered into hereunder with any particular Pre-Releasee on a case-by-case basis
as the Depositary deems appropriate. For purposes of enabling the Depositary to
fulfill its obligations to the Owners under the Deposit Agreement, the
collateral referred to in clause (b) above shall be held by the Depositary as
security for the performance of the Pre-Releasee's obligations to the Depositary
in connection with a Pre-Release transaction, including the Pre-Releasee's
obligation to deliver Shares or Receipts upon termination of a Pre-Release
transaction (and shall not, for the avoidance of doubt, constitute Deposited
Securities hereunder).

         The Depositary may retain for its own account any compensation received
by it in connection with the foregoing.

9.       TITLE TO RECEIPTS.

         It is a condition of this Receipt and every successive Owner and
Beneficial Owner of this Receipt by accepting or holding the same consents and
agrees, that title to this Receipt when properly endorsed or accompanied by
proper instruments of transfer, is transferable by delivery with the same effect
as in the case of a negotiable instrument under the laws of New York; provided,
however, that the Depositary, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, may
treat the person in whose name this Receipt is registered on the books of the
Depositary as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of determining the
person entitled to distribution of dividends or other distributions or to any
notice provided for in the Deposit Agreement and for all other purposes.

10.      VALIDITY OF RECEIPT.

         This Receipt shall not be entitled to any benefits under the Deposit
Agreement or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless this Receipt shall
have been executed by

<PAGE>

                                                                     EXHIBIT 4.1

the Depositary by the manual signature of a duly authorized signatory of the
Depositary; provided, however, that such signature may be a facsimile if a
Registrar for the Receipts shall have been appointed, and such Receipts are
countersigned by the manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized officer
of the Registrar.

11.      REPORTS; INSPECTION OF TRANSFER BOOKS.

         The Company is subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and, accordingly, files certain reports with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (hereinafter called the "Commission").

         Such reports and communications will be available for inspection and
copying at the public reference facilities maintained by the Commission located
at 450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549.

         The Depositary will make available for inspection by Owners of Receipts
at its Corporate Trust Office any reports and communications, including any
proxy soliciting material, received from the Company which are both (a) received
by the Depositary as the holder of the Deposited Securities and (b) made
generally available to the holders of such Deposited Securities by the Company.
The Depositary shall also, upon written request, send to the Owners of Receipts
copies of such reports when furnished by the Company pursuant to the Deposit
Agreement. Any such reports and communications, including any such proxy
soliciting material, furnished to the Depositary by the Company shall be
furnished in English to the extent such materials are required to be translated
into English pursuant to any regulation of the Commission.

         The Depositary shall keep books at its Corporate Trust Office for the
registration of Receipts and transfers of Receipts which at all reasonable times
shall be open for inspection by the Owners and the Company, provided that such
inspection shall not be for the purpose of communicating with Owners of Receipts
in the interest of a business or object other than the business of the Company
or a matter related to the Deposit Agreement or the Receipts.

12.      DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS.

         Whenever the Depositary shall receive any cash dividend or other cash
distribution on any Deposited Securities, the Depositary shall, if at the time
of receipt thereof any amounts received in a foreign currency can in the
judgment of the Depositary be converted on a reasonable basis into United States
dollars transferable to the United States, and subject to the Deposit Agreement,
convert such dividend or distribution into Dollars and shall distribute the
amount thus received (net of the fees and expenses of the Depositary as provided
in the Deposit Agreement, if applicable) to the Owners of Receipts entitled
thereto, provided, however, that in the event that the Company or the Depositary
shall be required to withhold and does withhold from such cash dividend or such
other cash distribution in respect of any Deposited Securities an amount on
account

<PAGE>

                                                                     EXHIBIT 4.1

of taxes, the amount distributed to the Owners of the Receipts evidencing
American Depositary Shares representing such Deposited Securities shall be
reduced accordingly.

         Subject to the provisions of Sections 4.11 and 5.9 of the Deposit
Agreement, whenever the Depositary shall receive any distribution other than a
distribution described in Sections 4.1, 4.3 or 4.4 of the Deposit Agreement, the
Depositary shall cause the securities or property received by it to be
distributed to the Owners of Receipts entitled thereto, after deduction or upon
payment of any fees and expenses of the Depositary or any taxes or other
governmental charges, in any manner that the Depositary may deem equitable and
practicable for accomplishing such distribution; provided, however, that if in
the opinion of the Depositary such distribution cannot be made proportionately
among the Owners of Receipts entitled thereto, or if for any other reason the
Depositary deems such distribution not to be feasible, the Depositary may adopt
such method as it may deem equitable and practicable for the purpose of
effecting such distribution, including, but not limited to, the public or
private sale of the securities or property thus received, or any part thereof,
and the net proceeds of any such sale (net of the fees of the Depositary as
provided in Section 5.9 of the Deposit Agreement) shall be distributed by the
Depositary to the Owners of Receipts entitled thereto as in the case of a
distribution received in cash.

         If any distribution upon any Deposited Securities consists of a
dividend in, or free distribution of, Shares, the Depositary may, and shall if
the Company shall so request, distribute to the Owners of outstanding Receipts
entitled thereto, additional Receipts evidencing an aggregate number of American
Depositary Shares representing the amount of Shares received as such dividend or
free distribution, subject to the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement
with respect to the deposit of Shares and the issuance of American Depositary
Shares evidenced by Receipts, including the withholding of any tax or other
governmental charge as provided in Section 4.11 of the Deposit Agreement and the
payment of the fees and expenses of the Depositary as provided in Section 5.9 of
the Deposit Agreement. In lieu of delivering Receipts for fractional American
Depositary Shares in any such case, the Depositary shall sell the amount of
Shares represented by the aggregate of such fractions and distribute the net
proceeds, all in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in the
Deposit Agreement. If additional Receipts are not so distributed, each American
Depositary Share shall thenceforth also represent the additional Shares
distributed upon the Deposited Securities represented thereby.

         The Company or its agent will remit to the appropriate governmental
agency in the Cayman Islands all amounts withheld and owing to such agency. The
Depositary will forward to the Company or its agent such information from its
records as the Company may reasonably request to enable the Company or its agent
to file necessary reports with governmental agencies, and the Depositary or the
Company or its agent may file any such reports necessary to obtain benefits
under the applicable tax treaties for the Owners of Receipts. In the event that
the Depositary determines that any distribution in property

<PAGE>

                                                                     EXHIBIT 4.1

(including Shares and rights to subscribe therefor) is subject to any tax or
other governmental charge which the Depositary is obligated to withhold, the
Depositary may by public or private sale dispose of all or a portion of such
property (including Shares and rights to subscribe therefor) in such amounts and
in such manner as the Depositary deems necessary and practicable to pay any such
taxes or charges and the Depositary shall distribute the net proceeds of any
such sale after deduction of such taxes or charges to the Owners of Receipts
entitled thereto.

13.      CONVERSION OF FOREIGN CURRENCY.

         Whenever the Depositary or the Custodian shall receive foreign
currency, by way of dividends or other distributions or the net proceeds from
the sale of securities, property or rights, and if at the time of the receipt
thereof the foreign currency so received can in the judgment of the Depositary
be converted on a reasonable basis into Dollars and the resulting Dollars
transferred to the United States, the Depositary shall convert or cause to be
converted, by sale or in any other manner that it may determine, such foreign
currency into Dollars, and such Dollars shall be distributed to the Owners
entitled thereto or, if the Depositary shall have distributed any warrants or
other instruments which entitle the holders thereof to such Dollars, then to the
holders of such warrants and/or instruments upon surrender thereof for
cancellation. Such distribution may be made upon an averaged or other
practicable basis without regard to any distinctions among Owners on account of
exchange restrictions, the date of delivery of any Receipt or otherwise and
shall be net of any expenses of conversion into Dollars incurred by the
Depositary as provided in Section 5.9 of the Deposit Agreement.

         If such conversion or distribution can be effected only with the
approval or license of any government or agency thereof, the Depositary shall
file such application for approval or license, if any, as it may deem desirable.

         If at any time the Depositary shall determine that in its judgment any
foreign currency received by the Depositary or the Custodian is not convertible
on a reasonable basis into Dollars transferable to the United States, or if any
approval or license of any government or agency thereof which is required for
such conversion is denied or in the opinion of the Depositary is not obtainable
without excessively burdensome or otherwise unreasonable efforts, or if any such
approval or license is not obtained within a reasonable period as determined by
the Depositary, or if there are foreign exchange controls in place that prohibit
such conversion, the Depositary may distribute the foreign currency (or an
appropriate document evidencing the right to receive such foreign currency)
received by the Depositary to, or in its discretion may hold such foreign
currency uninvested and without liability for interest thereon for the
respective accounts of, the Owners entitled to receive the same.

         If any such conversion of foreign currency, in whole or in part, cannot
be effected for distribution to some of the Owners entitled thereto, the
Depositary may in its discretion make such conversion and distribution in
Dollars to the extent permissible to

<PAGE>

                                                                     EXHIBIT 4.1

the Owners entitled thereto and may distribute the balance of the foreign
currency received by the Depositary to, or hold such balance uninvested and
without liability for interest thereon for the respective accounts of, the
Owners entitled thereto.

14.      RIGHTS.

         In the event that the Company shall offer or cause to be offered to the
holders of any Deposited Securities any rights to subscribe for additional
Shares or any rights of any other nature, the Depositary, after consultation
with the Company shall have discretion as to the procedure to be followed in
making such rights available to any Owners or in disposing of such rights on
behalf of any Owners and making the net proceeds available to such Owners or, if
by the terms of such rights offering or for any other reason, the Depositary may
not either make such rights available to any Owners or dispose of such rights
and make the net proceeds available to such Owners, then the Depositary shall
allow the rights to lapse. If at the time of the offering of any rights the
Depositary determines in its discretion that it is lawful and feasible to make
such rights available to all Owners or to certain Owners but not to other
Owners, the Depositary may distribute, to any Owner to whom it determines the
distribution to be lawful and feasible, in proportion to the number of American
Depositary Shares held by such Owner, warrants or other instruments therefor in
such form as it deems appropriate.

         In circumstances in which rights would otherwise not be distributed, if
an Owner of Receipts requests the distribution of warrants or other instruments
in order to exercise the rights allocable to the American Depositary Shares of
such Owner under the Deposit Agreement, the Depositary will make such rights
available to such Owner upon written notice from the Company to the Depositary
that (a) the Company has elected in its sole discretion to permit such rights to
be exercised and (b) such Owner has executed such documents as the Company has
determined in its sole discretion are reasonably required under applicable law.

         If the Depositary has distributed warrants or other instruments for
rights to all or certain Owners, then upon instruction from such an Owner
pursuant to such warrants or other instruments to the Depositary from such Owner
to exercise such rights, upon payment by such Owner to the Depositary for the
account of such Owner of an amount equal to the purchase price of the Shares to
be received upon the exercise of the rights, and upon payment of the fees and
expenses of the Depositary and any other charges as set forth in such warrants
or other instruments, the Depositary shall, on behalf of such Owner, exercise
the rights and purchase the Shares, and the Company shall cause the Shares so
purchased to be delivered to the Depositary on behalf of such Owner. As agent
for such Owner, the Depositary will cause the Shares so purchased to be
deposited pursuant to Section 2.2 of the Deposit Agreement, and shall, pursuant
to Section 2.3 of the Deposit Agreement, execute and deliver Receipts to such
Owner. In the case of a distribution pursuant to the second paragraph of this
Article, such Receipts shall be legended in accordance with applicable U.S.
laws, and shall be subject to the appropriate restrictions on sale, deposit,
cancellation and transfer under such laws.

<PAGE>

                                                                     EXHIBIT 4.1

         If the Depositary determines in its discretion that it is not lawful
and feasible to make such rights available to all or certain Owners, it may sell
the rights, warrants or other instruments in proportion to the number of
American Depositary Shares held by the Owners to whom it has determined it may
not lawfully or feasibly make such rights available, and allocate the net
proceeds of such sales (net of the fees and expenses of the Depositary as
provided in Section 5.9 of the Deposit Agreement and all taxes and governmental
charges payable in connection with such rights and subject to the terms and
conditions of the Deposit Agreement) for the account of such Owners otherwise
entitled to such rights, warrants or other instruments, upon an averaged or
other practical basis without regard to any distinctions among such Owners
because of exchange restrictions or the date of delivery of any Receipt or
otherwise.

         The Depositary will not offer rights to Owners unless both the rights
and the securities to which such rights relate are either exempt from
registration under the Securities Act with respect to a distribution to Owners
or are registered under the provisions of the Securities Act; provided, that
nothing in the Deposit Agreement shall create any obligation on the part of the
Company to file a registration statement with respect to such rights or
underlying securities or to endeavor to have such a registration statement
declared effective. If an Owner of Receipts requests distribution of warrants or
other instruments, notwithstanding that there has been no such registration
under such the Securities Act, the Depositary shall not effect such distribution
unless it has received an opinion from recognized counsel in the United States
for the Company upon which the Depositary may rely that such distribution to
such Owner is exempt from such registration; provided, however, the Company
shall have no obligation to cause its counsel to issue such opinion at the
request of such Owner.

         The Depositary shall not be responsible for any failure to determine
that it may be lawful or feasible to make such rights available to Owners in
general or any Owner in particular.

15.      RECORD DATES.

         Whenever any cash dividend or other cash distribution shall become
payable or any distribution other than cash shall be made, or whenever rights
shall be issued with respect to the Deposited Securities, or whenever for any
reason the Depositary causes a change in the number of Shares that are
represented by each American Depositary Share, or whenever the Depositary shall
receive notice of any meeting of holders of Shares or other Deposited
Securities, or whenever the Depositary shall find it necessary or convenient,
the Depositary shall fix a record date, which date shall be the same date, to
the extent practicable, as the record date for the Deposited Securities or if
different, as close thereto as practicable (a) for the determination of the
Owners of Receipts who shall be (i) entitled to receive such dividend,
distribution or rights or the net proceeds of the sale thereof or (ii) entitled
to give instructions for the exercise of voting rights at any such meeting, or
(b) on or after which each American Depositary Share will represent the

<PAGE>

                                                                     EXHIBIT 4.1

changed number of Shares, or (c) for any other matter, subject to the provisions
of the Deposit Agreement.

16.      VOTING OF DEPOSITED SECURITIES.

         Upon receipt of notice of any meeting of holders of Shares or other
Deposited Securities, if requested in writing by the Company, the Depositary
shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, mail to the Owners of Receipts a
notice, the form of which notice shall contain (a) such information as is
contained in such notice of meeting, (b) a statement that the Owners of Receipts
as of the close of business on a specified record date will be entitled, subject
to any applicable provision of Hong Kong and Cayman Islands law and of the
Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company, to instruct the
Depositary as to the exercise of the voting rights, if any, pertaining to the
amount of Shares or other Deposited Securities represented by their respective
American Depositary Shares and (c) a statement as to the manner in which such
instructions may be given. Upon the written request of an Owner of a Receipt on
such record date, received on or before the date established by the Depositary
for such purpose (the "Instruction Date"), the Depositary shall endeavor, in so
far as practicable to vote or cause to be voted the amount of Shares or other
Deposited Securities represented by the American Depositary Shares evidenced by
such Receipt in accordance with the instructions set forth in such request. The
Depositary shall not vote or attempt to exercise the right to vote that attaches
to the Shares or other Deposited Securities, other than in accordance with such
instructions.

         There can be no assurance that Owners generally or any Owner in
particular will receive the notice described in the preceding paragraph
sufficiently prior to the Instruction Date to ensure that the Depositary will
vote the Shares or Deposited Securities in accordance with the provisions set
forth in the preceding paragraph.

17.      CHANGES AFFECTING DEPOSITED SECURITIES.

         In circumstances where the provisions of Section 4.3 of the Deposit
Agreement do not apply, upon any change in nominal value, change in par value,
split-up, consolidation or any other reclassification of Deposited Securities,
or upon any recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or sale
of assets affecting the Company or to which it is a party, any securities which
shall be received by the Depositary or a Custodian in exchange for or in
conversion of or in respect of Deposited Securities shall be treated as new
Deposited Securities under the Deposit Agreement, and American Depositary Shares
shall thenceforth represent, in addition to the existing Deposited Securities,
if any, the new Deposited Securities so received in exchange or conversion,
unless additional Receipts are delivered pursuant to the following sentence. In
any such case the Depositary may, and shall at the Company's request, execute
and deliver additional Receipts as in the case of a dividend in Shares, or call
for the surrender of outstanding Receipts to be exchanged for new Receipts
specifically describing such new Deposited Securities.

                                                                     EXHIBIT 4.1

18.      LIABILITY OF THE COMPANY AND DEPOSITARY.

         Neither the Depositary nor the Company nor any of their respective
directors, officers, employees, agents or affiliates shall incur any liability
to any Owner or Beneficial Owner of any Receipt, if by reason of any provision
of any present or future law or regulation of the United States, the People's
Republic of China or any other country, or of any governmental or regulatory
authority or stock exchange, or by reason of any provision, present or future,
of the Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company, or by reason of
any provision of any Securities issued or distributed by the Company, or any
Offering or distribution thereof or by reason of any act of God or war or
terrorism or other circumstances beyond its control, the Depositary or the
Company shall be prevented, delayed or forbidden from, or be subject to any
civil or criminal penalty on account of, doing or performing any act or thing
which by the terms of the Deposit Agreement or Deposited Securities it is
provided shall be done or performed; nor shall the Depositary or the Company or
any of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents or affiliates
incur any liability to any Owner or Beneficial Owner of a Receipt by reason of
any non-performance or delay, caused as aforesaid, in the performance of any act
or thing which by the terms of the Deposit Agreement it is provided shall or may
be done or performed, or by reason of any exercise of, or failure to exercise,
any discretion provided for in the Deposit Agreement. Where, by the terms of a
distribution pursuant to Sections 4.1, 4.2 or 4.3 of the Deposit Agreement, or
an offering or distribution pursuant to Section 4.4 of the Deposit Agreement, or
for any other reason, such distribution or offering may not be made available to
Owners of Receipts, and the Depositary may not dispose of such distribution or
offering on behalf of such Owners and make the net proceeds available to such
Owners, then the Depositary shall not make such distribution or offering, and
shall allow any rights, if applicable, to lapse in each such case without
liability to the Company or the Depositary.

         Neither the Company nor the Depositary nor any of their officers,
employees, agents or affiliates assumes any obligation or shall be subject to
any liability under the Deposit Agreement to Owners or Beneficial Owners of
Receipts, except that the Company and the Depositary agree to perform their
obligations specifically set forth in the Deposit Agreement without negligence
or bad faith. The Depositary shall not be subject to any liability with respect
to the validity or worth of the Deposited Securities. Neither the Depositary nor
the Company shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any
action, suit or other proceeding in respect of any Deposited Securities or in
respect of the Receipts, which in its opinion may involve it in expense or
liability, unless indemnity satisfactory to it against all expense and liability
shall be furnished as often as may be required, and the Custodian shall not be
under any obligation whatsoever with respect to such proceedings, the
responsibility of the Custodian being solely to the Depositary. Neither the
Depositary nor the Company shall be liable for any action or nonaction by it in
reliance upon the advice of or information from legal counsel, accountants, any
person presenting Shares for deposit, any Owner or Beneficial Owner of a
Receipt, or any other person believed by it in good faith to be competent to
give such advice or information. The Depositary shall not be liable for any

<PAGE>

                                                                     EXHIBIT 4.1

acts or omissions made by a successor depositary whether in connection with a
previous act or omission of the Depositary or in connection with any matter
arising wholly after the removal or resignation of the Depositary, provided that
in connection with the issue out of which such potential liability arises the
Depositary performed its obligations without negligence or bad faith while it
acted as Depositary. The Depositary shall not be responsible for any failure to
carry out any instructions to vote any of the Deposited Securities, or for the
manner in which any such vote is cast or the effect of any such vote, provided
that any such action or nonaction is in good faith. The Company agrees to
indemnify the Depositary, its directors, employees, agents and affiliates and
any Custodian against, and hold each of them harmless from, any liability or
expense (including, but not limited to, the fees and expenses of counsel) which
may arise out of any registration with the Commission of Receipts, American
Depositary Shares or Deposited Securities or the offer or sale thereof in the
United States or out of acts performed or omitted, in accordance with the
provisions of the Deposit Agreement and of the Receipts, as the same may be
amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, (i) by either the
Depositary or a Custodian or their respective directors, employees, agents and
affiliates, except for any liability or expense arising out of the negligence or
bad faith of either of them, or (ii) by the Company or any of its directors,
employees, agents and affiliates. No disclaimer of liability under the
Securities Act of 1933 is intended by any provision of the Deposit Agreement.

19.      RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL OF THE DEPOSITARY.

         The Depositary may at any time resign as Depositary under the Deposit
Agreement by written notice of its election so to do delivered to the Company,
such resignation to take effect upon the appointment of a successor depositary
and its acceptance of such appointment as provided in the Deposit Agreement. The
Depositary may at any time be removed by the Company by 90 days prior written
notice of such removal, which shall become effective upon the later to occur of
the (i) 90th day after delivery of the notice to the Depositary or (ii) the
appointment of a successor depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as
provided in the Deposit Agreement. Whenever the Depositary in its discretion
determines that it is in the best interest of the Owners of Receipts to do so,
it may appoint a substitute or additional custodian or custodians.

20.      AMENDMENT.

         The form of the Receipts and any provisions of the Deposit Agreement
may at any time and from time to time be amended by agreement between the
Company and the Depositary without the consent of Owners and Beneficial Owners
in any respect which they may deem necessary or desirable. Any amendment which
shall impose or increase any fees or charges (other than taxes and other
governmental charges, registration fees, cable, telex or facsimile transmission
costs, delivery costs or other such expenses), or which shall otherwise
prejudice any substantial existing right of Owners of Receipts, shall, however,
not become effective as to outstanding Receipts until the expiration of thirty
(30) days after notice of such amendment shall have been given to the Owners of
outstanding Receipts. Every Owner of a Receipt at the time any amendment so
becomes

<PAGE>

                                                                     EXHIBIT 4.1

effective shall be deemed, by continuing to hold such Receipt, to
consent and agree to such amendment and to be bound by the Deposit Agreement as
amended thereby. In no event shall any amendment impair the right of the Owner
of any Receipt to surrender such Receipt and receive therefor the Deposited
Securities represented thereby, except in order to comply with mandatory
provisions of applicable law.

21.      TERMINATION OF DEPOSIT AGREEMENT.

         The Depositary shall at any time at the direction of the Company
terminate the Deposit Agreement by mailing notice of such termination to the
Owners of all Receipts then outstanding at least ninety (90) days prior to the
date fixed in such notice for such termination. The Depositary may likewise
terminate the Deposit Agreement by mailing notice of such termination to the
Company and the Owners of all Receipts then outstanding if at any time ninety
(90) days shall have expired after the Depositary shall have delivered to the
Company a written notice of its election to resign and a successor depositary
shall not have been appointed and accepted its appointment as provided in the
Deposit Agreement. On and after the date of termination, the Owner of a Receipt
will, upon (a) surrender of such Receipt at the Corporate Trust Office of the
Depositary, (b) payment of the fee of the Depositary for the surrender of
Receipts referred to in Section 2.5 of the Deposit Agreement and (c) payment of
any applicable taxes or governmental charges, be entitled to delivery, to him or
upon his order, of the amount of Deposited Securities represented by the
American Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt. If any Receipts shall
remain outstanding after the date of termination, the Depositary thereafter
shall discontinue the registration of transfers of Receipts, shall suspend the
distribution of dividends to the Owners thereof, and shall not give any further
notices or perform any further acts under the Deposit Agreement, except that the
Depositary shall continue to collect dividends and other distributions
pertaining to Deposited Securities, shall sell rights and other property as
provided in the Deposit Agreement, and shall continue to deliver Deposited
Securities, together with any dividends or other distributions received with
respect thereto and the net proceeds of the sale of any rights or other
property, in exchange for Receipts surrendered to the Depositary (after
deducting, in each case, the fee of the Depositary for the surrender of a
Receipt, any expenses for the account of the Owner of such Receipt in accordance
with the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement and any applicable taxes
or governmental charges). At any time after the expiration of one year from the
date of termination, the Depositary may sell the Deposited Securities then held
under the Deposit Agreement and may thereafter hold uninvested the net proceeds
of any such sale, together with any other cash then held by it thereunder,
unsegregated and without liability for interest, for the pro rata benefit of the
Owners of Receipts which have not theretofore been surrendered, such Owners
thereupon becoming general creditors of the Depositary with respect to such net
proceeds. After making such sale, the Depositary shall be discharged from all
obligations under the Deposit Agreement, except for its obligations to the
Company under Section 5.8 of the Deposit Agreement and to account for such net
proceeds and other cash (after deducting, in each case, the fee of the
Depositary for the surrender of a Receipt, any expenses for the account of the
Owner of such Receipt in accordance with the terms and conditions of the

<PAGE>

                                                                     EXHIBIT 4.1

Deposit Agreement, and any applicable taxes or governmental charges). Upon the
termination of the Deposit Agreement, the Company shall be discharged from all
obligations under the Deposit Agreement except for its obligations to the
Depositary under Sections 5.8 and 5.9 of the Deposit Agreement.

22.      DISCLOSURE OF INTERESTS.

         Notwithstanding any other provision of this Deposit Agreement, each
Owner and Beneficial Owner agrees to comply with requests from the Company
pursuant to applicable law or the Memorandum and Articles of Association to
provide information, inter alia, as to the capacity in which such Owner or
Beneficial Owner owns American Depositary Shares (and Shares as the case may be)
and regarding the identity of any other person(s) interested in such American
Depositary Shares (and Shares, as the case may be) and the nature of such
interest and various other matters, whether or not they are Owners or Beneficial
Owners at the time of such request. The Depositary agrees to use its reasonable
efforts to forward, upon the reasonable written request of the Company and at
the expense of the Company, any such written request from the Company to the
Owners and to forward, as promptly as practicable, to the Company any such
responses to such requests received by the Depositary. If the Company requests
information from the Depositary, the Custodian or the nominee of either, as the
registered owner of the Shares, the obligations of the Depositary, Custodian or
such nominee, as the case may be, shall be limited to disclosing to the Company
the information contained in the register.

23.      COMPLIANCE WITH U.S. SECURITIES LAWS.

         Notwithstanding anything in the Deposit Agreement or this Receipt to
the contrary, the Company and the Depositary each agrees that it will not
exercise any rights it has under the Deposit Agreement to prevent the withdrawal
or delivery of Deposited Securities in a manner which would violate the U.S.
securities laws, including, but not limited to, Section I.A.(1) of the General
Instructions to the Form F-6 Registration Statement, as amended from time to
time, under the Securities Act.

24.      SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; APPOINTMENT OF AGENT FOR SERVICE OF
         PROCESS.

         The Company hereby (i) irrevocably designates and appoints CT
Corporation System, 111 Eighth Avenue, 13th Floor, New York, New York 10011, in
the State of New York, as the Company's authorized agent upon which process may
be served in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Shares or
Deposited Securities, the American Depositary Shares, the Receipts or this
Agreement, (ii) consents and submits to the jurisdiction of any state or federal
court in the State of New York in which any such suit or proceeding may be
instituted, and (iii) agrees that service of process upon said authorized agent
shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon the Company
in any such suit or proceeding. The Company agrees to deliver, upon the
execution and delivery of the Deposit Agreement, a written acceptance by such
agent of its appointment as such agent. The Company further agrees to take any
and all action, including the filing of any and all such documents and
instruments, as may be necessary

<PAGE>

                                                                     EXHIBIT 4.1

to continue such designation and appointment in full force and effect for so
long as any American Depositary Shares or Receipts remain outstanding or this
Agreement remains in force. In the event the Company fails to continue such
designation and appointment in full force and effect, the Company hereby waives
personal service of process upon it and consents that any such service of
process may be made by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested,
directed to the Company at its address last specified for notices hereunder, and
service so made shall be deemed completed five (5) days after the same shall
have been so mailed.

25.      ARBITRATION.

         In the event the Depositary is advised that a judgment of a United
States court may not be recognized, the following provisions shall apply:

         (i) Any controversy, claim or cause of action brought by any party or
parties hereto against any other party or parties hereto arising out of or
relating to the Deposit Agreement shall be settled by arbitration in accordance
with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association,
and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any
court having jurisdiction thereof.

         (ii) The place of the arbitration shall be the City of New York, State
of New York, United States of America, and the language of the arbitration shall
be English.

         (iii) The number of arbitrators shall be three, each of whom shall be
disinterested in the dispute or controversy, shall have no connection with any
party thereto, and shall be an attorney experienced in international securities
transactions. Each party shall appoint one arbitrator and the two arbitrators
shall select a third arbitrator who shall serve as chairperson of the tribunal.
If a dispute, controversy or cause of action shall involve more than two
parties, the parties shall attempt to align themselves in two sides (i.e.,
claimant and respondent), each of which shall appoint one arbitrator as if there
were only two parties to such dispute, controversy or cause of action. If either
or both parties fail to select an arbitrator, or if such alignment (in the event
there is more than two parties) shall not have occurred, within sixty (60)
calendar days after the initiating party serves the arbitration demand or the
two arbitrators fail to select a third arbitrator within sixty (60) calendar
days of the selection of the second arbitrator, the American Arbitration
Association shall appoint the arbitrator or arbitrators in accordance with its
rules. The parties and the American Arbitration Association may appoint the
arbitrators from among the nationals of any country, whether or not a party is a
national of that country.

         (iv) The arbitrators shall have no authority to award damages not
measured by the prevailing party's actual damages and shall have no authority to
award any consequential, special or punitive damages, and may not, in any event,
make any ruling, finding or award that does not conform to the terms and
conditions of the Deposit Agreement.

         (v) In the event any third-party action or proceeding is instituted
against the Depositary relating to or arising from any act or failure to act by
the Company, the Company hereby submits to the personal jurisdiction of the
court or administrative agency in which such action or proceeding is brought.
