     The Issue Price for the Hong Kong Offer Shares will be based on the Hong

     offered in the International Offering and the US Offering. The price of
     such ADSs will be fixed in accordance with the International Underwriting
     Agreement on the Price Determination Date. The Issue Price will be
     determined as that amount which, when increased by brokerage at the rate of
     1 per cent., Stock Exchange trading fee at the rate of 0.005 per cent., SFC
     transaction levy at the rate of 0.005 per cent. and SFC investor
     compensation levy at the rate of 0.002 per cent. thereon, is (subject to
     any necessary rounding) equal to the US dollar per ADS (i) converted into
     Hong Kong dollars at the average of the bid and offered exchange rates
     quoted by The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited at the
     close of business on the Business Day prior to the Price Determination Date
     and (ii) divided by 80 (being the number of Offer Shares represented by
     each ADS), provided that the Issue Price (net of brokerage, Stock Exchange
     trading fee, SFC transaction levy and SFC investor compensation levy) shall
     not exceed HK$1.50 and shall not be less than H$1.04, unless otherwise
     agreed in writing by the Company and the Joint Global Coordinators. The
     Issue Price shall upon its determination be recorded in the Hong Kong
     Pricing Letter to be executed at such time.

2.3  Reallocation from the International Offering and/or the US Offering to the
     Hong Kong Public Offering

     The Joint Global Coordinators may at their sole and absolute discretion
     reallocate all or any of the International Offering Shares and/or the US
     Offering Shares from the International Offering to the Hong Kong Public
     Offering. In the event of such reallocation, such reallocation shall have
     no effect on the Company's obligations to pay the commission due to the
     Hong Kong Underwriters which shall be determined pursuant to Clause 4.1,
     and the Hong Kong Underwriters shall not be entitled to any additional
     underwriting commission in respect of such additional Hong Kong Offer
     Shares.

     Any Shares which are reallocated from the International Offering and/or the
     US Offering to the Hong Kong Public Offering shall, subject to the terms
     and conditions set out in the Hong Kong Offer Documents, be allocated in
     such manner as the Joint Global Coordinators may in their absolute
     discretion determine.

2.4  Reallocation from the Hong Kong Public Offering to the International
     Offering and/or the US Offering in the event of a Hong Kong Public Offer
     Under-Subscription

     If a Hong Kong Public Offer Under-Subscription shall occur, the Joint
     Global Coordinators may at their sole and absolute discretion (and subject
     to Clause 3.4(G)) reallocate all or any of the Hong Kong Public Offering
     Shares comprised in any such Hong Kong Public Offering Under-Subscription
     from the Hong Kong Public Offering to the International Offering and/or US
     Offering and the total Hong Kong Public Offering Underwriting Commitments
     of the Hong Kong Underwriters shall be automatically reduced accordingly in
     the same proportion as the aggregate amount of Hong Kong Public Offering
     Shares is reduced as a result of any such reallocation. Any Shares which
     are reallocated from the Hong Kong Public Offering to the International
     Offering and/or the US Offering pursuant to this Clause shall be deemed to
     be International Offering Shares and/or US Offering Shares, and shall be
     applied in accordance with the terms of the International Underwriting
     Agreement or otherwise allocated in such manner as the Joint Global
     Coordinators may in its sole and absolute discretion determine. The Company
     shall pay a

                                       14

<PAGE>

     combined underwriting and management commission and selling concession or
     commissions (as the case may be) in respect of any reallocated Shares to
     the International Underwriters and/or the US Underwriters in accordance
     with Clause 4.1 and the International Underwriting Agreement, and for the
     avoidance of doubt, the Hong Kong Underwriters shall not be entitled to the
     commissions payable under Clause 4.1 in respect of such reallocated Shares.

     Notwithstanding the above paragraph, if Accepted Hong Kong Public Offering
     Applications are received pursuant to the Hong Kong Public Offering in
     respect of more than the total number of Shares initially available under
     the Hong Kong Public Offering, then reallocations from the Hong Kong Public
     Offering to the International Offering and/or the US Offering shall not
     result in the number of Shares comprised in the Hong Kong Public Offering
     being less than 10% of the total number of Shares available under the
     Global Offering.

2.5  Stabilisation

     To the extent permitted by and in compliance with all applicable laws and
     regulatory requirements of Hong Kong or elsewhere including but without
     limitation the Securities and Futures (Price Stabilizing) Rules made under
     the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Chapter 571 of the Laws of Hong Kong)
     (the "Stabilizing Rules"), Citigroup, as stabilizing manager and in
     connection with the Global Offering, may at its absolute discretion effect
     such transactions as are permissible under, and in accordance with, the
     Stabilizing Rules with a view to stabilizing or maintaining the market
     price of the Offer Shares within a period prescribed under the Stabilizing
     Rules. Such stabilizing actions, if commenced, may be discontinued at any
     time. All stabilization and related activities in connection with the
     Global Offering will be undertaken for the account and at the cost and
     expenses of the Underwriters (and not as agents for the Company or TOM) and
     neither the Company nor TOM shall be liable for any costs, expenses or
     losses arising from or in connection with any such activities.

     (A)  (1)  TOM undertakes with each of the Company and to the Joint Global

          (2)  In the event that TOM fails to comply with this Clause 6.2(A),
               the Company covenants and undertakes to procure that any proposed
               transfer in breach of this Clause will not be registered in its
               share register.

     (B)  The Company agrees that it will not, and TOM undertakes to exercise
          its power of control to procure that the Company will not, effect any
          purchase of the Company's own shares, or agree to do so, which may
          reduce the holdings of Shares held by the public (as defined in Rule
          11.23 of the GEM Listing Rules) below 20 per cent. without first

         statement therein misleading in any respect or which in the
         circumstances of the Offer are material for disclosure therein

         apply to any statements or omissions made in reliance and conformity

         figures) and documentation provided by the Company to the Joint Global
         Co-ordinators and the Underwriters are true and accurate and complete

outstanding liabilities, term loans, other borrowings or indebtedness in the
nature of borrowings, including bank overdrafts and loans, debt securities or
similar indebtedness, hire purchase commitments or any mortgages and charges.

The description contained in the Prospectus of the Group's capital commitments
and/or requirements with respect to existing and further projects is true and
complete in all material respects. No member of the Group has any capital
commitment which is sufficiently material to merit disclosure in the Prospectus
but is not so disclosed.

                                       43

<PAGE>

In the opinion of the Directors, taking into account the net proceeds to be

Group is and will be sufficient for the Group's present requirements and, in all
events, for at least 12 months from the Listing Date.

No Group Company is in material dispute with any member of the China Mobile
group of companies or any member of the China Unicom group of companies and,
after due enquiry, there are no circumstances known to the Company which may
give rise to any such material dispute with any member of the China Telecom
group of companies or any member of the China Unicom group of companies, or
which may otherwise materially and adversely affect the relationship of any
Group Company with any member of the China Telecom group of companies or any
member of the China Unicom group of companies.

or written, whereby it has assumed or become responsible for, or will assume or
become responsible for, any liability arising out of or in connection with
proceedings involving any company which is not a member of the Group which is
material in the context of the Group as a whole.

15.      Indebtedness
         ------------

Save as disclosed in the Prospectus and for such transactions as may be entered
into by the Company pursuant to any of the Operative Documents or Reorganisation

or controls (whether by way of shareholding or otherwise).

No material claim under any insurance pollices taken out by any member of the

made all due investigation and enquiries, all conditions for the validity and
effectiveness of the said policies have been fully observed and performed.

of which is to accelerate or to permit the acceleration (by notice or otherwise)
of repayment of any material indebtedness or give rise to an obligation or
liability or right of enforcement of such obligation or liability of any member
of the Group which is materially adverse to the financial or trading position of
the Group.

         to assets is permitted only in accordance with management's general or
         specific authorization and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets
         is compared with existing assets at reasonable intervals and
         appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences.

         terms, all material patents, patent rights, licenses, inventions,

         procedures), trademarks, service marks and trade names (including the
         "Tom.com" name and logo) currently employed by them in connection with

         received any notice of infringement of or conflict with the asserted
         rights of others with respect to any of the foregoing which,
         individually or in the aggregate, if the subject of any unfavorable
         decision, ruling or finding, would result in any Material Adverse
         Change.

(v)      The audited consolidated financial statements (and the notes thereto)
         of the Company, the Subsidiaries, the PRC Subsidiaries and the
         Operating Companies included in the Prospectus present fairly, in all
         material respects, the financial position of the Company on a
         consolidated basis as of the dates indicated, and the results of
         operations and the cash flows for the periods specified in conformity
         with U.S. GAAP; and PricewaterhouseCoopers, who have expressed an

         regulations of the Commission thereunder.

(w)      The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations included
         in the Prospectus (the "proforma financial statements") are presented
         in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X of the United States
         Securities Laws; and the assumptions used in preparing the pro forma
         financial statements provide a reasonable basis for presenting the
         significant effects directly attributable to the transactions or events

         Prospectus or the Hong Kong Prospectus, as the case may be.

(z)      The description of the Reorganization Transaction and the Corporate
         Agreements as set forth in the Prospectus is true and correct in all
         material respects. The Reorganization Transaction has been completed
         and effected prior to the date hereof and constitutes a binding and
         irrevocable transaction completed by the parties to the Reorganization
         Agreements. Each of the Reorganization Agreements and Corporate
         Agreements have been effected prior to the date hereof in compliance
         with all applicable national, provincial, municipal and local laws,
         except for such non-compliance that would not, individually or in the
         aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect, and constitutes a binding
         transaction completed by the parties to the Reorganization Agreements
         and Corporate Agreements. Each of the Reorganization Agreements and
         Corporate Agreements has been duly authorized, executed and delivered

         Operating Companies that is a party to such agreement prior to the date

         each of the Subsidiaries, PRC Subsidiaries and Operating Companies that
         is a party and such agreement is enforceable in accordance with its
         terms subject, as to enforceability, to bankruptcy, insolvency,
         reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability
         relating to or affecting creditors' rights and to general equity
         principles.

         consummation thereof and the execution and the delivery by the Company
         and each of the Subsidiaries and each of the PRC Subsidiaries, as the
         case may be, of each Reorganization Agreement and Corporate Agreement
         to which it is a party and the performance of their respective
         obligations thereunder did not, does not and will not conflict with, or
         result in a breach or violation of, any of the terms, or provisions of,
         or constitute a default under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust,
         loan agreement, note, lease or other agreement or instrument to which
         any of the Company, the Subsidiaries and the PRC Subsidiaries is a
         party to or by which it is bound or to which any of its property or
         assets is subject, that singly or in the aggregate, is material to any
         of the Company, the Subsidiaries, and the PRC Subsidiaries and such
         actions did not, and will not, result in any violation of the
         provisions of (x) the Articles of Association or business licenses or
         other constitutive documents of any of the Company, the Subsidiaries or
         the PRC Subsidiaries or (y) any law or statute or any order, rule,
         regulation, judgment, order or decree of any Governmental Agency having

         in the aggregate (A) have a Material Adverse Effect or (B) affect the
         valid and binding nature of the Reorganization Transaction, any
         Reorganization Agreement or any Corporate Agreement. Except as
         disclosed in the Prospectus and except for certain regulatory approvals
         to be obtained in relation to (a) the transfer of the interest held by
         TOM.COM (China) Investment Limited in Cernet Information Technology
         Company Limited, (b) the transfer of the interest held by Shenzhen

         and Shenzhen Freenet expect to receive in the normal course, all
         consents, approvals, authorizations, orders, registrations and
         qualifications required in all relevant jurisdictions in connection
         with the Reorganization Transaction, Reorganization Agreements and
         Corporate Agreements and the execution, delivery and performance of the
         Reorganization Agreements and Corporate Agreements have been made or
         obtained (including, without limitation (x) all actions necessary for
         the approval of the Reorganization Transaction and Corporate Agreements
         by any Governmental Agency and (y) third parties under joint venture
         agreements, bank loans, guarantees and other contracts material to the
         Company, the Subsidiaries and PRC Subsidiaries taken as a whole, if the
         consent of such third party is necessary to be obtained), and no such
         consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification
         has been withdrawn or is subject to any condition precedent which has
         not been fulfilled or performed, except for such consents, approvals,
         authorizations, orders, registrations and qualifications that the
         failure to make or obtain would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

(bb)     Other than the Reorganization Agreements, there are no other material
         documents or agreements, written or oral, that have been entered into
         by the Company and any of the Subsidiaries, any of the PRC Subsidiaries
         or any of the Operating Companies in connection with the Reorganization
         Transaction which have not been previously provided, or made available,
         to the Underwriters and, to the extent material to the Company,
         disclosed in the Prospectus.

(cc)     The description of the Acquisition Transaction set forth in the
         Prospectus is true and correct in all material respects. The
         Acquisition Transaction has been effected prior to the date hereof in
         compliance with all applicable national, provincial, municipal and
         local laws. The Acquisition Transaction constitutes a binding and
         irrevocable transaction completed by the parties to the Acquisition
         Agreement. The Acquisition Agreement has been duly authorized, executed
         and delivered by the Company and the Subsidiary that is a party to such
         agreement prior to the date hereof and the Acquisition Agreement
         constitutes a valid and legally binding agreement of the Company and
         the Subsidiary that is a party to such agreement enforceable in
         accordance with its terms subject, as to enforceability, to bankruptcy,
         insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general
         applicability relating to or affecting creditors' rights and to general
         equity principles, and the consummation thereof and the execution and
         the delivery of the Acquisition Agreement by the Company and the
         Subsidiary that is a party to such agreement and the performance of
         their respective obligations thereunder does not and will not conflict
         with, or result in a breach or violation of, any of the terms, or
         provisions of, or constitute a default under, any indenture, mortgage,
         deed of trust, loan agreement, note, lease or other agreement or
         instrument to which the Company and the relevant Subsidiary is a party
         or by which it is bound or to which any of its property or assets is
         subject, that singly or in the aggregate, is material to the Company
         and the relevant Subsidiary, and such actions did not, and will not,
         result in any violation of the provisions of (x) the Articles of
         Association or business licenses or other constitutive documents of the
         Company or the relevant Subsidiary or (y) any law or statute or any
         order, rule, regulation, judgment, order or decree of any Governmental
         Agency having jurisdiction over any of them or any of their properties,
         except, in the case of clause (y) above, for such violations which
         would not,

                                       53

         individually or in the aggregate (A) have a Material Adverse Effect or
         (B) affect the valid and binding nature of the Acquisition Transaction
         or the Acquisition Agreement. Other than the Acquisition Agreement,
         there are no other material documents or agreements, written or oral,
         that have been entered into by the Company and any of the Subsidiaries,
         any of the PRC Subsidiaries or any of the Operating Companies in
         connection with the Acquisition Transaction which have not been
         previously provided, or made available, to the Underwriters and, to the
         extent material to the Company, disclosed in the Prospectus.

(dd)     Except as disclosed in the Prospectus, each of the Company, the
         Subsidiaries, the PRC Subsidiaries and Operating Companies has all
         necessary licenses, consents, authorizations, approvals, orders,
         certificates and permits of and from, and has made all necessary
         declarations and filings with, all Governmental Agencies to conduct its
         business in the manner described in the Prospectus except to the extent
         that not having such licenses, consents, authorizations, approvals,
         orders, certificates or permits and not making such declarations and
         filings would not have a Material Adverse Effect, and such licenses,
         consents, authorizations, approvals, orders, certificates or permits
         contain no materially burdensome restrictions or conditions not
         described in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus. Neither the
         Company, any of the Subsidiaries, any of the PRC Subsidiaries nor any
         of the Operating Companies has received any notice of proceedings
         relating to the revocation or modification of any such licenses,
         consents, authorizations, approvals, orders, certificates or permits
         which, singly or in the aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable
         decision, ruling or finding, would have a Material Adverse Effect. The
         Company does not have any reasonable basis to believe that the PRC
         Ministry of Information Industry ("MII") or any other regulatory body
         is proposing to modify, suspend or revoke any such licenses, consents,
         authorizations, approvals, orders, certificates or permits, and each of
         the Company and the Subsidiaries, the PRC Subsidiaries and the
         Operating Companies is in compliance with the provisions of all such
         licenses, consents, authorizations, approvals, orders, certificates or
         permits in all material respects.

(ee)     The description set forth in the Prospectus in the section captioned
         "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
         Results of Operation - Critical Accounting Policies" of (i) the
         accounting policies which the Company believes are the most important
         in the portrayal of the Company's financial condition and results of
         operations and which require management's most difficult, subjective or
         complex judgments ("critical accounting policies") and (ii) the
         judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of critical
         accounting policies.

(ff)     The description set forth in the Prospectus in the section captioned
         "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
         Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources" of (i) all
         material trends, demands, commitments, events, uncertainties and risks,
         and the potential effects thereof, that the Company believes would
         materially affect liquidity and are reasonably likely to occur and (ii)
         all off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements, and obligations,
         including, without limitation, relationships with unconsolidated
         entities that are contractually limited to narrow activities that
         facilitate the transfer of or access to assets by the Company or any of
         the Subsidiaries, PRC Subsidiaries and Operating Companies such as
         structured finance entities and special purpose entities (collectively,
         "off-balance arrangements") that are reasonably likely to have a
         material effect on the liquidity of the Company and the Subsidiaries,
         PRC Subsidiaries and Operating Companies taken as a whole, or the
         availability thereof or the requirements of the Company and the
         Subsidiaries, PRC Subsidiaries and Operating Companies for capital
         resources is true and correct in all material respects. As used herein
         in this warranty (ff), the phrase "reasonably likely" refers to a
         disclosure threshold lower than "more likely than not".

                                       54

(gg)     None of the Company, the Subsidiaries, the PRC Subsidiaries and the
         Operating Companies and the businesses or entities operated or owned by
         the Company and the Subsidiaries, the PRC Subsidiaries and the
         Operating Companies, nor to the best of the Company's knowledge, any of
         their respective directors (as identified in the Prospectus), directly
         or indirectly, own any interest exceeding 5% of the total issued share
         capital of, hold any directorships or management positions in, or are a
         party to any material transaction with any entity that competes with
