issued hereunder.

perform its obligations hereunder, (ii) as may be required to comply with any
applicable laws or regulations, or with the rules and regulations of the New
York Stock Exchange or of any other securities exchange or market upon which
ADSs may be traded, listed or quoted, or to conform with any usage with respect

restrictions to which any particular Receipts or ADSs are subject by reason of
the date of issuance or type of the Deposited Securities or otherwise, or (iv)
as may be required by any book-entry system in which the ADSs are held.

          (c) Title. Subject to the limitations contained herein and in the
Receipt, title to a Receipt (and to each ADS evidenced hereby) shall
be-transferable upon the same terms as a certificated security under the laws
of the State of New York, provided that such Receipt has been properly endorsed
or is accompanied by properly executed instruments of transfer. Notwithstanding
any notice to the contrary, the Depositary and the Company may deem and treat
the Holder of a Receipt (that is, the person in whose name a Receipt is
registered on the books of the Depositary) as the absolute owner thereof for all
purposes. Neither the Depositary nor the Company shall have any obligation nor
be subject to any liability under this Deposit Agreement or any Receipt to any
holder of a Receipt or any Beneficial Owner unless such holder is the Holder of
such Receipt registered on the books of the Depositary or, in the case of a
Beneficial Owner, such Beneficial Owner, or the Beneficial Owner's
representative, is the Holder registered on the books of the Depositary.

          (d) Book-Entry Systems. The Depositary shall make arrangements for the
acceptance of the ADSs into DTC. A single ADR in the form of a "Balance
Certificate" will (except as contemplated in Section 2.12) evidence the ADSs
held through DTC and will be registered in the name of the nominee for DTC
(currently "Cede & Co.") and will provide that it represents the aggregate
amount of ADSs from time to time indicated in the records of the Depositary as
being issued hereunder and that the aggregate amount of ADSs represented thereby
may from time to the be increased or decreased by making adjustments on such
records of the Depositary and of DTC or its nominee AS hereinafter provided. As
such, the nominee for DTC will be the only "Holder" of the ADR evidencing the
ADSs held through DTC. Citibank, N.A. (or such other entity as is appointed by
DTC or its nominee) may hold the "Balance Certificate" as custodian for DTC.
Each Beneficial Owner of ADSs held through DTC must rely upon the procedures of
DTC and the DTC Participants to exercise or be entitled to any rights
attributable to such ADSs. The DTC Participants shall for all purposes be deemed
to have all requisite power

                                      -10-
<PAGE>

and authority to act on behalf of the Beneficial Owners of the ADSs held in the
DTC Participants' respective accounts in DTC and the Depositary shall for all
purposes be authorized to rely upon any instructions and information given to it
by DTC Participants on behalf of Beneficial Owners of ADSs. So long as ADSs are
held through DTC or unless otherwise required by law, ownership of beneficial
interests in the ADR registered in the name of the nominee for DTC will be shown
on, and transfers of such ownership will be effected only through, records
maintained by (i) DTC or its nominee (with respect to the interests of DTC
Participants), or (ii) DTC Participants or their nominees (with respect to the
interests of clients of DTC Participants).

been advised that under Republic of China law, as in effect as of the date
hereof, no deposits of Eligible Securities may be made in the NYSE-listed ADR

applicable to Eligible Securities evidenced by ADSs in the event of capital
increases for cash, or (iii) the purchase, as permitted hereunder, directly by

Facility, provided that the total number of ADSs outstanding after an
issuance described in clause (iii) does not exceed the number of issued ADSs
previously approved by the SFC in connection with the Offering (plus any ADSs
created pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above), and subject to any adjustment
in the number of Eligible Securities represented by each ADS. The Depositary and
the Company have been advised that under ROC law, as in effect as of the date
hereof, issuances under clause (iii) above will be permitted only to the extent
that previously issued ADSs have been canceled and the Eligible Securities
withdrawn from the ADR Facility upon cancellation of such ADSs have been sold on
the TSE. Except as contemplated by Section 2.13 hereof, the Depositary will not
accept any Shares for deposit pursuant to clause (iii) unless it receives
satisfactory opinions of ROC and U.S. counsel to the Company to the effect that
such Eligible Securities may lawfully be deposited pursuant to the Deposit
Agreement and are not Restricted Securities. The laws of the Republic of China
applicable to the deposit of Eligible Securities may change from time to time.
There can be no assurances that current law will continue in effect or that
future changes of Republic of China law will not adversely affect the ability to
deposit Eligible Securities hereunder.

     The Initial Deposit(s) of Shares into the ADR Facilities will be made, by
or on behalf of the Company or the investors (or nominees for the investors)
acquiring Shares and/or ADSs in the Offering, by the delivery to the Custodian
of a Certificate of Payment evidencing the irrevocable right to receive the
physical share certificates representing the Shares registered in the name of
the nominee of the Depositary as representative of the Holders, as instructed by
the Depositary. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement,
upon such Initial Deposit(s), the Depositary shall execute and deliver ADRs
evidencing the ADSs representing the Deposited Securities constituting the
Initial Deposit(s) in the manner provided in Sections 2.5 and 2.12.

compliance with the securities laws of the United States and other
jurisdictions.

Receipts have been duly stamped (if required by the laws of the State of New
York or of the United States), and (iv) all applicable fees and charges of, and
reasonable expenses incurred by, the Depositary and all applicable taxes and

applicable Receipts, of this Deposit Agreement and of applicable law, in each
case as in effect at the time thereof.

     (b) Combination and Split-Up. The Registrar shall register the split-up or
combination of Receipts (and of the ADSs represented thereby) on the books

case, to the terms and conditions of the applicable Receipts, of this Deposit
Agreement and of applicable law, in each case as effect at the time thereof.

     (c) Co-Transfer Agents. The Depositary may appoint one or more co-transfer
agents for the purpose of effecting transfers, combinations and split-ups of
Receipts at designated transfer offices on behalf of the Depositary. In carrying
out its functions, a co-transfer agent may require evidence of authority and
compliance with applicable laws and other requirements by Holders or persons
entitled to such Receipts and will be entitled to protection and indemnity to
the same extent as the Depositary. Such co-transfer agents may be removed and
substitutes appointed by the Depositary. Each co-transfer agent appointed under
this Section 2.6 (other than the Depositary) shall give notice in writing to the
Depositary accepting such appointment and agreeing to be bound by the applicable
terms of this Deposit Agreement.

     Section 2.7 Surrender of ADSs and Withdrawal and Sale of Deposited
Securities.

     (a) ROC Requirements. The Depositary and the Company have been advised that
under ROC law, as in effect as of the date hereof, a Holder wishing to withdraw
Deposited Securities from the ADR facility is required to appoint an eligible
agent in the Republic of China to open (i) a securities trading account with a
local brokerage firm after receiving an approval from the TSE and (ii) a bank
account (the securities trading account and the bank account, collectively, the
"Accounts"), to pay ROC taxes, remit funds, exercise shareholders' rights and
perform such other functions as may be designated by such withdrawing Holder. In
addition, such withdrawing Holder is also required to appoint a custodian bank
to hold the securities in safekeeping, make confirmations and settle trades and
report all relevant information. Without making such appointment and the opening
of such Accounts, the withdrawing Holder would be unable to hold or subsequently
sell the Deposited Securities withdrawn from the ADR Facilities on the TSE or
otherwise. The laws of the Republic of China applicable to the withdrawal of
Deposited Securities may change from time to time. There can be no assurances
that current law will remain in effect or that future changes of Republic of
China law will not adversely affect the ability of Holders to withdraw Deposited
Securities hereunder.

     (b) Sale of Deposited Securities. Upon surrender of Receipts at the
Principal Office and upon payment of any fees, reasonable expenses, taxes or
other governmental charges as provided hereunder, subject to the terms of this
Deposit Agreement and the Company's Articles of Incorporation, and the transfer
restrictions applicable to the Deposited Securities, if any, Holders may request
that the Deposited Securities represented by such Holders' Receipts be sold on
such Holder's behalf. Any Holder requesting a sale of Deposited Securities may
be required by the Depositary to deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the
Depositary a written order requesting the Depositary to sell, or cause to be
sold, such Deposited Securities. Any such sale of Deposited Securities will be
conducted in accordance with applicable ROC law through a securities company

                                      -15-
<PAGE>

in the ROC on the TSE or in such other manner as is or may be permitted under
applicable ROC law. Any such sale of Deposited Securities will be at the expense
and risk of the Holder requesting such sale. Any Holder requesting the
Depositary to sell the Deposited Securities represented by such Holder's ADSs
may be required to enter into a separate agreement to cover the terms of the
sale of such Deposited Securities.

     Upon receipt of any proceeds from any such sale, the Depositary shall,
subject to any restrictions imposed by ROC law and regulations, and as provided
hereunder, convert or cause to be converted any such proceeds into U.S. dollars
and distribute any such proceeds to the Holders entitled thereto after deduction
or payment of any fees, reasonable expenses, taxes or governmental charges
(including, without limitation any ROC and U.S. taxes) incurred in connection
with such sale, as provided under this Deposit Agreement. Any such sale may be
subject to ROC taxation on capital gains, if any, and will be subject to a
securities transaction tax in the ROC. The ROC does not, as of the date hereof,
impose tax on capital gains arising from ROC securities transactions, but there
can be no assurance that a capital gains tax on ROC securities transactions will
not be imposed in the future or as to the manner in which any ROC capital gains
tax in respect of a sale of Deposited Securities would be imposed or calculated.

          (c) Withdrawal of Deposited Securities. The Holder of ADSs shall be
entitled to Delivery (at the Custodian's designated office) of the Deposited
Securities at the time represented by the ADS(s) upon satisfaction of each of
the following conditions: (i) the Holder (or a duly authorized attorney of the
Holder) has duly Delivered ADSs to the Depositary at its Principal Office (and
if applicable, the Receipts evidencing such ADSs) for the purpose of withdrawal
of the Deposited Securities represented thereby, (ii) if so required by the
Depositary, the Receipts Delivered to the Depositary for such purpose have been
properly endorsed in blank or are accompanied by proper instruments of transfer
in blank (including signature guarantees in accordance with standard securities
industry practice), (iii) if so required by the Depositary, the Holder of the
ADSs has executed and delivered to the Depositary a written order directing the
Depositary to cause the Deposited Securities being withdrawn to be Delivered to
or upon the written order of the person(s) designated in such order, (iv) the
Holder has delivered to the Depositary the certification contemplated in Exhibit
C hereof, duly completed by or on behalf of the Beneficial Owner(s) of the ADSs
surrendered for withdrawal (unless the Depositary is otherwise instructed by the
Company), and (v) all applicable fees and charges of, and reasonable expenses
incurred by, the Depositary and all applicable taxes and governmental charges
(as are set forth in Section 5.9 and Exhibit B hereof) have been paid, subject,
however, in each case, to the terms and conditions of the Receipts evidencing
the surrendered ADSs, of the Deposit Agreement, of the Company's Articles of
Incorporation and of any applicable laws and regulations of the Republic of
China and of the United States and the rules of the Taiwan Securities Central
Depository, and to any provisions of or governing the Deposited Securities, in
each case as in effect at the time thereof.

     Upon satisfaction of each of the conditions specified above, the Depositary
(i) shall cancel the ADSs Delivered to it (and, if applicable, the Receipts
evidencing the ADSs so Delivered),

                                      -16-
<PAGE>

(ii) shall direct the Registrar to record the cancellation of the ADSs so
Delivered on the books maintained for such purpose, and (iii) shall direct the
Custodian to Deliver (without unreasonable delay) at the Custodian's designated
office the Deposited Securities represented by the ADSs so canceled together
with any certificate or other document of title for the Deposited Securities, or
evidence of the electronic transfer thereof (if available), as the case may be,
to or upon the written order of the person(s) designated in the order delivered
to the Depositary for such purpose, subject however, in each case, to the terms
and conditions of the Deposit Agreement, of the Receipts evidencing the ADSs so
canceled, of the Articles of Incorporation of the Company, of applicable laws
and regulations of the Republic of China and of the United States and of the
rules of the Taiwan Securities Central Depositary, and to the terms and
conditions of or governing the Deposited Securities, in each case as in effect
at the time thereof.

     The Depositary shall not accept for surrender ADSs representing less than a
whole number of Eligible Securities. In the case of the Delivery to it of ADSs
representing a number other than a whole number of Eligible Securities, the
Depositary shall cause ownership of the appropriate whole number of Eligible
Securities to be Delivered in accordance with the terms hereof, and shall, at
the discretion of the Depositary, either (i) return to the person surrendering
such ADSs the number of ADSs representing any remaining fractional Eligible
Security, or (ii) sell or cause to be sold the fractional Eligible Security
represented by the ADS(s) so surrendered and remit the proceeds of such sale
(net of (a) applicable fees and charges of, and expenses incurred by, the
Depositary and (b) taxes withheld) to the person surrendering the ADSs. In
addition, trading restrictions on the TSE may result in the price per Eligible
Security or on any lot of any type of Eligible Security other than an integral
multiple of 1,000 Eligible Securities being lower than the price of Eligible
Securities in lots of integral multiples of 1,000 Eligible Securities.

     Notwithstanding anything else contained in any Receipt or the Deposit
Agreement, the Depositary may make delivery at the Principal Office of the
Depositary of (i) any cash dividends or cash distributions, or (ii) any proceeds
from the sale of any distributions of Securities or rights, which are at the
time held by the Depositary in respect of the Deposited Securities represented
by the ADSs surrendered for cancellation and withdrawal. At the request, risk
and expense of any Holder so surrendering ADSs, and for the account of such
Holder, the Depositary shall direct the Custodian to forward (to the extent
permitted by law) any cash or other property (other than securities) held by the
Custodian in respect of the Deposited Securities represented by such ADSs to the
Depositary for delivery at the Principal Office of the Depositary. Such
direction shall be given by letter or, at the request, risk and expense of such
Holder, by air courier, cable, telex or facsimile transmission.

     Section 2.8 Additional Limitations on Execution and Delivery, Transfer,
etc. of Receipts; Suspension of Delivery, Transfer, etc.

          (a) Additional Requirements. As a condition precedent to the execution
and delivery, registration, registration of transfer, split-up, combination or
surrender of any Receipt, the delivery of any distribution thereon, or the
withdrawal of any Deposited Securities, the

                                      -17-
<PAGE>

Depositary or the Custodian may require (i) payment from the depositor of
Eligible Securities or presenter of ADSs or of a Receipt of a sum sufficient to

Exhibit B hereof, (ii) the production of proof satisfactory to it as to the

Receipt, this Deposit Agreement and applicable law.

          (b)   Additional Limitations. The issuance of ADSs against deposits of
Eligible Securities generally or against deposits of particular Eligible
Securities may be suspended, or the deposit of particular Eligible Securities
may be refused, or the registration of transfer of Receipts in particular
instances may be refused, or the registration of transfers of Receipts generally
may be suspended, during any period when the transfer books of the Company, the
Depositary, a Registrar or the Eligible Securities Registrar are closed or if
any such action is deemed necessary or advisable by the Depositary or the
Company, in good faith, at any time or from time to time because of any
requirement of law, any government or governmental body or commission or any
securities exchange on which the ADSs or Eligible Securities are listed, or
under any provision of this Deposit Agreement or the applicable Receipt(s) or,
under any provision of, or governing, the Deposited Securities, or because of a
meeting of shareholders of the Company or for any other reason, subject, in all
cases, to Section 7.8 hereof.

the Receipt has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, (ii)

                                      -18-

Maintenance of Records. All Receipts surrendered to the Depositary shall be
canceled by the Depositary. Canceled Receipts shall not be entitled to any
benefits under this Deposit Agreement or be valid or enforceable against the
Depositary for any purpose. The Depositary is authorized to destroy Receipts so
canceled, provided the Depositary maintains a record of all destroyed Receipts.
Any ADSs held in book-entry form (i.e., through accounts at DTC) shall be deemed
canceled when the Depositary causes the number of ADSs evidenced by the Balance
Certificate to be reduced by the number of ADSs surrendered (without the need to
physically destroy the Balance Certificate). The Depositary agrees to maintain
records of all Receipts surrendered and Deposited Securities withdrawn,
substitute Receipts delivered and canceled or destroyed Receipts in accordance
with procedures ordinarily followed by such transfer agents located in The City
of New York, or as required by the laws or regulations governing the Depositary.
Upon the reasonable request of the Company; the Depositary shall provide a copy
of such records to the Company.

     Section 2.11 Partial Entitlement ADSs. In the event any Eligible Securities
are deposited which entitle the holders thereof to receive a per-Deposited
Security distribution or other entitlement in an amount different from the
Deposited Securities then on deposit (the Deposited Securities then on deposit
collectively, "Full Entitlement Deposited Securities" and the Deposited
Securities with different entitlement collectively, "Partial Entitlement
Deposited Securities"), the Depositary shall (i) cause the Custodian to hold
Partial Entitlement Deposited Securities separate and distinct from Full
Entitlement Deposited Securities, and (ii) subject to the terms of this Deposit
Agreement, issue ADSs and deliver ADRs representing Partial Entitlement
Deposited Securities which are separate and distinct from the ADSs and ADRs
representing Full Entitlement Deposited Securities, by means of separate CUSIP
numbering and legending (if necessary) ("Partial Entitlement ADSs/ADRs" and
"Full Entitlement ADSs/ADRs", respectively). If and when the Company informs the
Depositary in writing that the Partial Entitlement Eligible Securities become
Full Entitlement Eligible Securities, the Depositary shall (a) give notice
thereof to Holders of Partial Entitlement ADSs and give Holders of Partial
Entitlement ADRs the opportunity to exchange such Partial Entitlement ADRs for
Full Entitlement ADRs, (b) cause the Custodian to transfer the Partial
Entitlement Deposited Securities into the account of the Full Entitlement
Deposited Securities, and (c) take such actions as are necessary to remove the
distinctions between (i) the Partial Entitlement ADRs and ADSs, on the one hand,
and (ii) the Full Entitlement ADRs and ADSs on the other. Holders and Beneficial
Owners of Partial Entitlement ADSs shall only be entitled to the entitlements of
Partial Entitlement Deposited Securities. Holders and Beneficial Owners of Full
Entitlement ADSs shall be entitled only to the entitlements of Full Entitlement
Deposited Securities. All provisions and conditions of this Deposit Agreement
shall apply to Partial Entitlement ADRs and ADSs to the same extent as Full
Entitlement ADRs

                                      -19-
<PAGE>

and ADSs, except as contemplated by this Section 2.11. The Depositary is
authorized to take any and all other actions as may be necessary (including,
without limitation, making the necessary notations on Receipts) to give effect
to the terms of this Section 2.11. The Company agrees to give timely written
notice to the Depositary if any Eligible Securities issued or to be issued are
Partial Entitlement Eligible Securities and shall assist the Depositary with the
establishment of procedures enabling the identification of Partial Entitlement
Eligible Securities upon Delivery to the Custodian.

     Section 2.12 Temporary ADSs. In the event that, in determining the rights
and obligations of parties hereto with respect to any Temporary ADSs, any
conflict arises between (a) the terms of this Deposit Agreement (other than this
Section 2.12) and (b) the terms of (i) the Temporary ADSs issued hereunder as
set forth in this Section 2.12 or (ii) the applicable Temporary ADR, the terms
and conditions set forth in this Section 2.12 or the applicable Temporary ADR
shall be controlling and shall govern the rights and obligations of the parties
to this Deposit Agreement pertaining to the Certificate of Payment, the
Temporary ADSs and the Temporary ADRs.

     Whenever the Company proposes to issue any Certificate of Payment eligible
for deposit hereunder (in connection with the Offering or otherwise), the
Company shall timely notify the Depositary thereof and provide the Depositary
with written instructions to the effect that, inter alia, (i) the Certificate of
Payment has been or is to be issued pursuant to a bona fide purchase of Shares
from the Company, (ii) the Certificate of Payment is not, and shall not be
deemed to be upon its deposit, and the Shares issuable pursuant to the terms of
the Certificate of Payment will not be, Restricted Securities, (iii) a
description of the rights (if any) to any distribution upon Deposited Securities
to be made to Holders of Temporary ADSs representing such Certificates of
Payment upon the terms set forth in Article IV hereof, and (iv) the date
established by the Company upon which the Company shall convert or cause to be
converted the Certificate of Payment into Shares on its records and on the
records of the Eligible Securities Registrar.

     Subject always to the laws and regulations of the Republic of China, upon
deposit of any Certificate of Payment hereunder and payment to the Depositary of
the charges of the Depositary for accepting a deposit, issuing ADSs and issuing
and delivering Receipts (as set forth in Section 5.9 and Exhibit B hereto), the
Depositary shall (i) cause the Custodian to hold such Certificate of Payment
separate and distinct from the Shares, any other Certificate(s) of Payment and
any other Deposited Securities and (ii) issue and deliver Temporary ADSs
representing interests in the Certificate of Payment so deposited. The Temporary
ADSs so issued shall be identified and treated separately and distinctly from
any other ADSs representing Deposited Securities hereunder by means, inter alia
of separate CUSIP numbering and legending (if necessary). The Depositary may
issue Temporary ADSs in one or multiple series as the Depositary in its sole
discretion deems necessary and appropriate. No Temporary ADS shall be fungible
with any other ADSs issued hereunder.

                                      -20-
<PAGE>

     The Depositary shall deliver Temporary ADSs in book-entry form only. No
certificated Temporary ADRs will be issued except for a "Balance Certificate"
evidencing all Temporary ADSs held in DTC, which shall be substantially in the
form of Temporary ADR set forth in Exhibit A hereto, except as may be necessary
to identify and treat the Temporary ADSs as separate and distinct from any other
ADSs issued under the terms of this Deposit Agreement. The Depositary shall make
arrangements for the acceptance of such Temporary ADSs into DTC upon the terms
set forth in Section 2.2(d) hereof. The Temporary ADSs and the Temporary ADRs
evidenced thereby are identical to and confer all of the rights and obligations
set forth herein relating to Receipts and ADSs represented thereby except that
(i) in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations of the Republic of
China, Holders of Temporary ADRs will have no right to withdraw the Deposited
Securities represented by their Temporary ADSs, (ii) Temporary ADRs shall bear
separate CUSIP numbers that shall be different from any CUSIP number that is or
may be assigned to the other ADSs issued hereunder, (iii) neither Temporary ADSs
nor interests in any Certificate of Payment shall be eligible for any
Pre-Cancellation Sale Transactions or Pre-Release Transactions described in
Section 5.10 hereof and (iv) in the event that the Company makes any
distributions upon Deposited Securities upon the terms of Article IV of this
Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall make distributions to Holders of
Temporary ADSs on the basis of the distribution(s) received from the Company in
respect of the Certificate(s) of Payment corresponding to the series of
Temporary ADSs held by such Holder. Nothing herein shall impose any obligation
upon the Depositary to make any distributions to Holders of any series of
Temporary ADSs on the same basis as Holders of Share ADSs or any other Series of
Temporary ADSs issued hereunder.

     The Company undertakes to make Shares available in exchange for any
specified Certificate of Payment, as soon as possible after the issuance of the
Certificate of Payment and to provide timely notice thereof to the Depositary.
Upon receipt of such notice from the Company, the Depositary shall instruct the
Custodian to surrender any such Certificate of Payment then eligible for
exchange to the Company against delivery of Shares to the Depositary in exchange
therefor. Upon receipt by the Depositary of (i) notice of the exchange of Shares
for such Certificate of Payment and (ii) confirmation from the Company that the
Shares so received rank in all respects pari passu with the Deposited Securities
evidenced by Share ADSs, the Depositary shall give notice thereof to the
applicable Holders of Temporary ADSs and thereafter Temporary ADSs shall be
eligible for exchange into Share ADSs. Interests in Temporary ADSs in DTC will
be automatically exchanged for beneficial interests in Share ADSs as follows:
with no further action by Holders, the Depositary shall instruct DTC to
automatically transfer any position held by a DTC participant under the CUSIP
number assigned to the Temporary ADSs to the CUSIP number assigned to the Share
ADSs. Holders and Beneficial Owners of such Temporary ADSs shall thereafter be
Holders and Beneficial Owners of Share ADSs issued hereunder and shall have all
the rights and obligations specified in this Deposit Agreement and in the
Receipts pertaining to Share ADSs. The Depositary will charge no fee for the
cancellation of the Temporary ADSs and issuance of Share ADSs in exchange
therefor.

     Notwithstanding anything in the Deposit Agreement to the contrary, the
Depositary shall have no obligation to any party to exchange Temporary ADSs for
Share ADSs as provided herein unless and until, upon delivery by the Depositary
of the related Certificate of Payment, the Company shall have delivered Shares
in respect thereof to the Depositary.

     Section 2.13 Restricted ADRs and Restricted ADSs. The Depositary shall, at
the request and expense of the Company, establish procedures enabling the
deposit hereunder of Shares that are Restricted Securities in order to enable
the holder of such Shares to hold its ownership interests in such Restricted
Securities in the form of ADSs issued under the terms hereof (such Shares,
"Restricted Shares"). Upon receipt of a written request from the Company to
accept Restricted Shares for deposit hereunder, the Depositary agrees to
establish procedures permitting the deposit of such Restricted Shares and the
issuance of Restricted ADSs representing such deposited Restricted Shares (such
ADSs, "Restricted ADSs", and the ADRs evidencing such Restricted ADSs, the
"Restricted ADRs"). The Company shall assist the Depositary in the establishment
of such procedures and agrees that it shall take all commercially reasonable
steps necessary and satisfactory to the Depositary to insure that the
establishment of such procedures does not violate the provisions of the
Securities Act or any other applicable laws. The depositors of such Restricted
Shares and the holders of the Restricted ADSs may be required prior to the
deposit of such Restricted Shares, the transfer of the Restricted ADRs and the
Restricted ADSs evidenced thereby or the withdrawal of the Restricted Shares
represented by Restricted ADSs to provide such written certifications or
agreements as the Depositary or the Company may require. The Company shall
provide to the Depositary in writing the legend(s) to be affixed to the
Restricted ADRs, which legends shall (i) be in a form reasonably satisfactory to
the Depositary and (ii) contain the specific circumstances under which the
Restricted ADRs and the Restricted ADSs represented thereby may be transferred
or the Restricted Shares withdrawn. The Restricted ADSs issued upon the deposit
of Restricted Shares shall be separately identified on the books of the
Depositary and the Restricted Shares so deposited shall be held separate and
distinct from the other Deposited Securities held hereunder. The Restricted
Shares and the Restricted ADSs shall not be eligible for Pre-Release
Transactions or Pre-Cancellation Sales Transactions described in Section 5.10
hereof. The Restricted ADSs shall not be eligible for inclusion in any
book-entry settlement system, including, without limitation, DTC, and shall not
in any way be fungible with the ADSs issued under the terms hereof that are not
Restricted ADSs. The Restricted ADRs and the Restricted ADSs evidenced thereby
shall be transferrable only by the holder thereof upon delivery to the
Depositary of (i) all documentation otherwise contemplated by this Deposit
Agreement and (ii) an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Depositary setting
forth, inter alia, the conditions upon which the Restricted ADR presented is,
and the Restricted ADSs evidenced thereby are, transferrable by the holder
thereof under applicable securities laws and the transfer restrictions contained
in the legend set forth on the Restricted ADR presented for transfer. Except as
set forth in the Section 2.13, and except as required by applicable law, the
Restricted ADRs and the Restricted ADSs evidenced thereby shall be treated as
ADRs and ADSs issued and outstanding under the terms of this Deposit Agreement.

                                   ARTICLE III
                         CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS OF HOLDERS
                         AND BENEFICIAL OWNERS OF ADSs

     Section 3.1 Proofs, Certificates and Other Information. Any person
presenting Eligible Securities for deposit, any Holder and any Beneficial Owner
may be required, and every Holder and Beneficial Owner agrees, from time to time
to provide to the Depositary and the Custodian such proof of citizenship or
residence, taxpayer status, payment of all applicable taxes or other
governmental charges, exchange control and any other applicable regulatory
approval, legal or beneficial ownership of ADSs and Deposited Securities,
compliance with applicable laws, the terms of this Deposit Agreement or the
Receipt(s) evidencing the ADS(s) and the provisions of, or governing, the
Deposited Securities, to execute such certifications and to make such
representations and warranties, and to provide such other information and
documentation (or, in the case of Eligible Securities in registered form
presented for deposit, such information relating to the registration on the
books of the Company or of the Eligible Securities Registrar) as the Depositary
or the Custodian may deem necessary or proper or as the Company may reasonably
require by written request to the Depositary consistent with its obligations
under this Deposit Agreement and the applicable Receipt(s). The Depositary and
the Registrar, as applicable, may, and at the reasonable written request of the
Company shall, withhold the execution or delivery or registration of transfer of
any Receipt or the distribution or sale of any dividend or distribution of
rights or of the proceeds thereof or, to the extent not limited by the terms of
Section 7.8 hereof, the delivery of any Deposited Securities, or may refuse to
adjust its records, until such proof or other information is filed or such
certifications are executed, or such representations are made, or such other
documentation or information provided, in each case to the Depositary's, the
Registrar's and the Company's satisfaction. The Depositary shall provide the
Company, in a timely manner, with copies or originals if necessary and
appropriate of (i) any such proofs of citizenship or residence, taxpayer status,
or exchange control approval which it receives from Holders and Beneficial
Owners, and (ii) any other information or documents which the Company may
reasonably request and which the Depositary shall request and receive from any
Holder or Beneficial Owner or any person presenting Eligible Securities for
deposit or ADSs for cancellation, transfer or withdrawal. Nothing herein shall
obligate the Depositary to (i) obtain any information for the Company if not
provided by the Holders or Beneficial Owners, or (ii) verify or vouch for the
accuracy of the information so provided by the Holders or Beneficial Owners.

     Section 3.2 Liability for Taxes and Other Charges. If any tax or other
governmental charge shall become payable by the Depositary or the Custodian with
respect to any ADR or any Deposited Securities or American Depositary Shares,
such tax or other governmental charge shall be payable by the Holders and
Beneficial Owners to the Depositary. The Company, the Custodian and/or the
Depositary may withhold or deduct from any distributions made in respect of
Deposited Securities and may sell for the account of a Holder and/or Beneficial
Owner any or all of the Deposited Securities and apply such distributions and
sale proceeds in payment of such

                                      -23-
<PAGE>

taxes (including applicable interest and penalties) or charges, the Holder and
the Beneficial Owner remaining liable for any deficiency. The Custodian may
refuse the deposit of Eligible Securities and the Depositary may refuse to issue
ADSs, to deliver ADRs, register the transfer, split-up or combination of ADRs
and (subject to Section 7.8) the withdrawal of Deposited Securities until
payment in full of such tax, charge, penalty or interest is received. Every
Holder and Beneficial Owner agrees to indemnify the Depositary, the Company, the
Custodian, and any of their agents, officers, employees and Affiliates for, and
to hold each of them harmless from, any claims with respect to taxes (including
applicable interest and penalties thereon) arising from any tax benefit obtained
for such Holder and/or Beneficial Owner.

     Section 3.3 Representations and Warranties on Deposit of Eligible
Securities.

     (a) Deposit of Shares. Each person depositing Shares under this Deposit
Agreement shall be deemed thereby to represent and warrant that (i) such Shares
and the certificates therefor are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid,
non-assessable and legally obtained by such person, (ii) all preemptive (and
similar) rights, if any, with respect to such Shares have been validly waived or
exercised, (iii) the person making such deposit is duly authorized so to do,
(iv) the Shares presented for deposit are free and clear of any lien,
encumbrance, security interest, charge, mortgage or adverse claim, and are
not, and the American Depositary Shares issuable upon such deposit will not be,
Restricted Securities and (v) the Shares presented for deposit have not been
stripped of any rights or entitlements. Such representations and warranties
shall survive the deposit and withdrawal of Shares, the issuance and
cancellation of American Depositary Shares in respect thereof and the transfer
of such American Depositary Shares.

     (b) Deposit of Certificate(s) of Payment. Whenever the Company shall
deposit any Certificate of Payment under this Deposit Agreement the Company
shall be deemed thereby to represent and warrant that (i) such Certificate of
Payment is, and the Shares to be received in exchange for the Certificate of
Payment will be, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable
and legally obtained, (ii) all preemptive (and similar) rights, if any, with
respect to such Certificate of Payment has been, and with respect to the Shares
to be received in exchange for the Certificate of Payment will have been,
validly waived or exercised, (iii) the Company has duly authorized the issuance
of the Shares to be delivered in exchange for the Payment Certificate so
presented for deposit, (iv) the Certificate of Payment presented for deposit is,
and the Shares to be deposited upon the exchange of the Certificates of Payment
for Shares will be, free and clear of any lien, encumbrance, security interest,
change, mortgage or adverse claim, and are not, and the Temporary ADSs issuable
upon such deposit will not be, Restricted Securities and (v) the Certificate of
Payment presented for deposit has not been, and the Shares to be deposited upon
the exchange for the Certificate of Payment will not have been, stripped of any
rights or entitlements. Such representations and warranties shall survive the
deposit of any Certificate of Payment, the issuance and cancellation of
Temporary ADSs in respect thereof and the transfer of such Temporary ADSs.

                                      -24-
<PAGE>

     If any such representations or warranties are false in any way, the
Depositary shall be authorized, at the cost and expense of the Company, to take
any and all actions necessary to correct the consequences thereof.

     Section 3.4 Compliance with Information Requests. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Deposit Agreement or any Receipt(s), each Holder and
Beneficial Owner agrees to comply with requests from the Company pursuant to
applicable U.S. and Republic of China laws or regulations, the rules and
requirements of the TSE, and any other stock exchange on which the Eligible
Securities or ADSs are, or will be, registered, traded or listed or the
Articles of Incorporation of the Company, which are made to provide information,
inter alia, as to the capacity in which such Holder or Beneficial Owner owns
American Depositary Shares (and Eligible Securities or Deposited Securities, as
the case may be) and regarding the identity of any other person(s) interested in
such American Depositary Shares and the nature of such interest and various
other matters, whether or not they are Holders and/or Beneficial Owners at the
time of such request. The Depositary agrees to use its reasonable efforts to
forward, upon the request of the Company and at the Company's expense, any such
request from the Company to the Holders and to forward to the Company any such
responses to such requests received by the Depositary.

     Section 3.5 Ownership Restrictions. Notwithstanding any other provision in
this Deposit Agreement or any Receipt, the Company may restrict transfers of the
Shares, Eligible Securities or securities convertible into Shares where the
Company informs the Depositary that such transfer might result in ownership of
Shares exceeding limits imposed by applicable law, the SFC, the TSE or the
Articles of Incorporation of the Company. The Company may also restrict, in such
manner as it deems appropriate, transfers of the American Depositary Shares
where such transfer may result in the total number of Shares, Deposited
Securities, or securities convertible into Shares represented by the American
Depositary Shares owned by a single Holder or Beneficial Owner to exceed any
such limits. The Company may, in its sole discretion but subject to applicable
law, instruct the Depositary to take action with respect to the ownership
interest of any Holder or Beneficial Owner in excess of the limits set forth in
the preceding sentence, including, but not limited to, the imposition of
restrictions on the transfer of American Depositary Shares, the removal or
limitation of voting rights or the mandatory sale or disposition on behalf of a
Holder or Beneficial Owner of the Deposited Securities represented by the
American Depositary Shares held by such Holder or Beneficial Owner in excess of
such limitations, if and to the extent such disposition is permitted by
applicable law and the Articles of Incorporation of the Company.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                            THE DEPOSITED SECURITIES

     Section 4.1 Cash Distributions. Subject always to the laws and regulations
of the Republic of China, whenever the Depositary receives confirmation from the
Custodian of the receipt of any cash dividend or other cash distribution on any
Deposited Securities, or receives proceeds from the sale of any Deposited
Securities or any entitlements held in respect of

                                      -25-
<PAGE>

Deposited Securities under the terms hereof the Depositary will (i) if at the
time of receipt thereof any amounts received in a Foreign Currency can in the
judgment of the Depositary (pursuant to Section 4.8) be converted on a
practicable basis into Dollars transferable to the United States, promptly
convert or cause to be converted such cash dividend, distribution or proceeds
into Dollars (on the terms described in Section 4.8), (ii) if applicable,
establish the ADS Record Date upon the terms described in Section 4.9, and (iii)
distribute promptly the amount thus received (net of (a) the applicable fees and
charges of, and reasonable expenses incurred by, the Depositary and (b) taxes
withheld) to the Holders entitled thereto as of the ADS Record Date (if
applicable) in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares
representing such Deposited Securities held as of the ADS Record Date (if
applicable). The Depositary shall distribute only such amount, however, as can
be distributed without attributing to any Holder a fraction of one cent, and any
balance not so distributed shall be held by the Depositary (without liability
for interest thereon) and shall be added to and become part of the next sum
received by the Depositary for distribution to Holders of ADSs outstanding at
the time of the next distribution. If the Company, the Custodian or the
Depositary is required to withhold and does withhold from any cash dividend or
other cash distribution in respect of any Deposited Securities an amount on
account of taxes, duties or other governmental charges, the amount distributed
to Holders on the American Depositary Shares representing such Deposited
Securities shall be reduced accordingly. Such withheld amounts shall be
forwarded by the Company, the Custodian or the Depositary to the relevant
governmental authority. Evidence of payment thereof by the Company shall be
forwarded by the Company to the Depositary upon request. The Depositary or the
Custodian, as the case may be, 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 Custodian, as the case may be, or the Company or its agent
may file any such reports necessary to obtain benefits under the applicable tax
treaties for Holders of ADSs.

     Section 4.2 Distribution in Eligible Securities. Subject always to the laws
and regulations of the Republic of China, if any distribution upon any Deposited
Securities consists of a dividend in, or free distribution of, Eligible
Securities, the Company shall cause such Eligible Securities Shares to be
deposited with the Custodian and registered, as the case may be, in the name of
the Depositary, the Custodian or their respective nominees. Upon receipt of
confirmation of such deposit from the Custodian, the Depositary shall establish
the ADS Record Date upon the terms described in Section 4.9 and either (i) the
Depositary shall, subject to Section 5.9 hereof and the laws and regulations
of the Republic of China, distribute to the Holders as of the ADS Record Date
in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares held as of the ADS
Record Date, additional American Depositary Shares (of the applicable series),
which represent in the aggregate the number of Eligible Securities received as
such dividend, or free distribution, subject, however, in each case, to the
other terms of this Deposit Agreement (including, without limitation, the
limitations set forth in Article II hereof and (a) the applicable fees and
charges of, and reasonable expenses incurred by, the Depositary and (b) taxes),
or (ii) if additional American Depositary Shares are not so distributed, each
American Depositary Share issued and outstanding after the ADS Record Date
shall, to the extent permissible by law,

                                      -26-
<PAGE>

thenceforth also represent rights and interests in the additional integral
number of Shares distributed upon the Deposited Securities represented thereby
(subject, however, in each case, to the laws and regulations of the Republic of
China and net of (a) the applicable fees and charges of, and reasonable expenses
incurred by, the Depositary and (b) taxes). In lieu of delivering fractional
American Depositary Shares, the Depositary shall sell the number of Eligible
Securities or American Depositary Shares, as the case may be, represented by the
aggregate of such fractions and distribute the net proceeds upon the terms
described in Section 4.1. In the event that (x) the Depositary determines that
any distribution in property (including Eligible Securities) is subject to any
tax or other governmental charges which the Depositary is obligated to withhold,
or (y) if the Company in the fulfillment of its obligation under Section 5.7
hereof, has furnished an opinion of U.S. counsel determining that Eligible
Securities must be registered under the Securities Act or other laws in order to
be distributed to Holders (and no such registration statement has been declared
effective), or (z) the deposit of Eligible Securities is not permitted under the
laws or regulations of the Republic of China, the Depositary may dispose of all
or a portion of such property (including Eligible Securities and rights to
subscribe therefor) in such amounts and in such manner, including by public or
private sale, as the Depositary deems necessary and practicable, and the
Depositary shall distribute the net proceeds of any such sale (after deduction
of such (a) taxes and (b) fees and charges of, and reasonable expenses incurred
by, the Depositary) to Holders entitled thereto upon the terms described in
Section 4.1. The Depositary shall hold and/or distribute any unsold balance of
such property in accordance with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement.

     Section 4.3 Elective Distributions in Cash or Eligible Securities. Subject
always to the laws and regulations of the Republic of China, whenever the
Company intends to distribute a dividend payable at the election of the holders
of Eligible Securities in cash or in additional Eligible Securities, the Company
shall give timely notice thereof to the Depositary prior to the proposed
distribution stating whether or not it wishes such elective distribution to be
made available to Holders of ADSs. Upon receipt of notice indicating that the
Company wishes such elective distribution to be made available to Holders of
ADSs, the Depositary shall consult with the Company to determine, and the
Company shall assist the Depositary in its determination, whether it is lawful
and reasonably practicable to make such elective distribution available to the
Holders of ADSs. The Depositary shall make such elective distribution available
to Holders only if (i) the Depositary shall have determined that such
distribution is reasonably practicable and (ii) the Depositary shall have
received satisfactory documentation within the terms of Section 5.7. If the
above conditions are not satisfied, the Depositary shall, to the extent
permitted by law, distribute to the Holders, on the basis of the same
determination as is made in the Republic of China in respect of the Deposited
Securities for which no election is made, either cash upon the terms described
in Section 4.1 or additional ADSs representing such additional Eligible
Securities upon the terms described in Section 4.2. If the above conditions are
satisfied, the Depositary shall establish an ADS Record Date (on the terms
described in Section 4.9) and establish procedures to enable Holders to elect
the receipt of the proposed dividend in cash or in additional ADSs. The Company
shall assist the Depositary in establishing such procedures to the extent
necessary. If a Holder elects to receive the proposed dividend in cash, the
dividend shall be distributed upon the

                                      -27-
<PAGE>

terms described in Section 4.1, or in ADSs, the dividend shall be distributed
upon the terms described in Section 4.2. Nothing herein shall obligate the
Depositary to make available to Holders a method to receive the elective
dividend in Eligible Securities (rather than ADSs). There can be no assurance
that Holders generally, or any Holder in particular, will be given the
opportunity to receive elective distributions on the same terms and conditions
as the holders of Deposited Securities.

     Section 4.4 Distribution of Rights to Purchase Additional ADSs.

          (a) Distribution to ADS Holders. Subject always to the laws and
regulations of the Republic of China, whenever the Company intends to distribute
to the holders of the Deposited Securities rights to subscribe for Eligible
Securities, the Company shall give timely notice thereof to the Depositary
stating whether or not it wishes such rights to be made available to Holders of
ADSs. Upon receipt of a notice indicating that the Company wishes such rights to
be made available to Holders of ADSs, the Depositary shall consult with the
Company to determine, and the Company shall assist the Depositary in its
determination, whether it is lawful and reasonably practicable to make such
rights available to the Holders. The Depositary shall make such rights available
to Holders only if (i) the Company shall have timely requested that such rights
be made available to Holders, (ii) the Depositary shall have received
satisfactory documentation within the terms of Section 5.7, and (iii) the
Depositary shall have determined that such distribution of rights is reasonably
practicable. In the event any of the conditions set forth above are not
satisfied or if the Company requests that the rights not be made available to
Holders of ADSs, the Depositary shall proceed with the sale of the rights as
contemplated in Section 4.4(b) below. In the event all conditions set forth
above are satisfied, the Depositary shall establish an ADS Record Date (upon the
terms described in Section 4.9) and establish procedures to (x) distribute
rights to purchase additional ADSs (by means of warrants or otherwise), (y) to
enable the Holders to exercise such rights (upon payment of the subscription
price and of the applicable (a) fees and charges of, and reasonable expenses
incurred by, the Depositary and (b) taxes), and (z) to deliver ADSs upon the
valid exercise of such rights. The Company shall assist the Depositary to the
extent necessary in establishing such procedures. Nothing herein shall obligate
the Depositary to make available to the Holders a method to exercise rights to
subscribe for Eligible Securities (rather than ADSs).

          (b) Sale of Rights. If (i) the Company does not timely request the
Depositary to make the rights available to Holders or requests that the rights
not be made available to Holders, (ii) the Depositary fails to receive
satisfactory documentation within the terms of Section 5.7 or determines it is
not lawful or not reasonably practicable to make the rights available to
Holders, or (iii) any rights made available are not exercised and appear to be
about to lapse, the Depositary shall determine in its discretion but after
consultation with the Company whether it is lawful and reasonably practicable to
sell such rights, in a riskless principal capacity, at such place and upon such
terms (including public or private sale) as it may deem practical. The Company
shall assist the Depositary to the extent necessary to determine such legality
and practicability. The Depositary shall, upon such sale, convert and distribute
proceeds of such sale (net of

                                      -28-
<PAGE>

applicable (a) fees and charges of, and expenses incurred by, the Depositary and
(b) taxes) upon the terms set forth in Section 4.1.

          (c) Lapse of Rights. If the Depositary is unable to make any rights
available to Holders upon the terms described in Section 4.4(a) or to arrange
for the sale of the rights upon the terms described in Section 4.4(b), the
Depositary shall allow such rights to lapse.

     The Depositary shall not be responsible for (i) any failure to determine
that it may be lawful or practicable to make such rights available to Holders in
general or any Holders in particular, (ii) any foreign exchange exposure or loss
incurred in connection with such sale, or exercise, or (iii) the content of any
materials forwarded to the Holders on behalf of the Company in connection with
the rights distribution.

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.4, if
registration (under the Securities Act or any other applicable law) of the
rights or the securities to which any rights relate may be required in order for
the Company to offer such rights or such securities to Holders and to sell the
securities represented by such rights, the Depositary will not distribute such
rights to the Holders (i) unless and until a registration statement under the
Securities Act (or other applicable law) covering such offering is in effect or
(ii) unless the Company furnishes the Depositary with opinions of counsel for
the Company in the United States and counsel to the Company in any other
applicable country in which rights would be distributed, in each case
satisfactory to the Depositary, to the effect that the offering and sale of such
securities to Holders and Beneficial Owners are exempt from, or do not require
registration under, the provisions of the Securities Act or any other applicable
laws.

     In the event that the Company, the Depositary or the Custodian shall be
required to withhold and does withhold from any distribution of property
(including rights) an amount on account of taxes or other governmental charges,
the amount distributed to the Holders of American Depositary Shares representing
such Deposited Securities shall be reduced accordingly. In the event that the
Depositary determines that any distribution in property (including Eligible
Securities and rights to subscribe therefor) is subject to any tax or other
governmental charges which the Depositary is obligated to withhold, the
Depositary may dispose of all or a portion of such property (including Eligible
Securities and rights to subscribe therefor) in such amounts and in such manner,
including by public or private sale, as the Depositary deems necessary and
practicable to pay any such taxes or charges.

     There can be no assurance that Holders generally, or any Holder in
particular, will be given the opportunity to receive or exercise rights on the
same terms and conditions as the holders of Deposited Securities or be able to
exercise such rights. Nothing herein shall obligate the Company to file any
registration statement in respect of any rights or Eligible Securities or other
securities to be acquired upon the exercise of such rights.

     Section 4.5 Distributions Other Than Cash, Eligible Securities or Rights to
Purchase Eligible Securities. (a) Whenever the Company intends to distribute to
the holders of Deposited Securities property other than cash, Eligible
Securities or rights to purchase additional Eligible Securities, the Company
shall give timely notice thereof to the Depositary and shall indicate whether or
not it wishes such distribution to be made to Holders of ADSs. Upon receipt of a
notice indicating that the Company wishes such distribution to be made to
Holders of ADSs, the Depositary shall consult with the Company, and the Company
shall assist the Depositary, to determine whether such distribution to Holders
is lawful and reasonably practicable. The Depositary shall not make such
distribution unless (i) the Company shall have requested the Depositary to make
such distribution to Holders, (ii) the Depositary shall have received
satisfactory documentation within the terms of Section 5.7, and (iii) the
Depositary shall have determined that such distribution is lawful and reasonably
practicable.

          (b) Upon receipt of satisfactory documentation and the request of the
Company to distribute property to Holders of ADSs and after making the requisite
determinations set forth in (a) above, the Depositary shall distribute the
property so received to the Holders of record, as of the ADS Record Date, in
proportion to the number of ADSs held by them respectively and in such manner as
the Depositary may deem practicable for accomplishing such distribution (i) upon
receipt of payment or net of the applicable fees and charges of, and reasonable
expenses incurred by, the Depositary, and (ii) net of any taxes withheld. The
Depositary may dispose of all or a portion of the property so distributed and
deposited, in such amounts and in such manner (including by public or private
sale) as the Depositary may deem practicable or necessary to satisfy any taxes
(including applicable interest and penalties) or other governmental charges
applicable to the distribution.

          (c) If (i) the Company does not request the Depositary to make such
distribution to Holders or requests the Depositary not to make such distribution
to Holders, (ii) the Depositary does not receive satisfactory documentation
within the terms of Section 5.7, or (iii) the Depositary determines that all or
a portion of such distribution is not reasonably practicable, the Depositary
shall sell or cause such property to be sold in a public or private sale, at
such place or places and upon such terms as it may deem practicable and shall
(i) cause the proceeds of such sale, if any, to be converted into Dollars and
(ii) distribute the proceeds of such conversion received by the Depositary (net
of applicable (a) fees and charges of, and reasonable expenses incurred by, the
Depositary and (b) taxes) to the Holders as of the ADS Record Date upon the
terms of Section 4.1. If the Depositary is unable to sell such property, the
Depositary may dispose of such property in any way it deems reasonably
practicable under the circumstances.

          Section 4.6 Distributions with Respect to Deposited Securities in
Bearer Form. Subject always to the laws and regulations of the Republic of China
and to the terms of this Article IV, distributions in respect of Deposited
Securities that are held by the Depositary in bearer form shall be made to the
Depositary for the account of the respective Holders of Receipts with respect to
which any such distribution is made upon due presentation by the Depositary or
the Custodian to the Company of any relevant coupons, talons, or certificates.
The Company

                                      -30-
<PAGE>

shall promptly notify the Depositary of such distributions. The Depositary or
the Custodian shall promptly present such coupons, talons or certificates, as
the case may be, in connection with any such distribution.

          Section 4.7 Redemption. If the Company intends to exercise any right
of redemption in respect of any of the Deposited Securities, the Company shall
give timely notice thereof to the Depositary which notice shall set forth the
particulars of the proposed redemption. Upon receipt of (i) such notice and (ii)
satisfactory documentation given by the Company to the Depositary within the
terms of Section 5.7, and only if the Depositary shall have determined that such
proposed redemption is reasonably practicable, the Depositary shall deliver to
each Holder a notice setting forth the intended exercise by the Company of the
redemption rights and any other particulars set forth in the Company's notice to
the Depositary. The Depositary shall instruct the Custodian to present to the
Company the Deposited Securities in respect of which redemption rights are being
exercised against payment of the applicable redemption price. Upon receipt of
confirmation from the Custodian that the redemption has taken place and that
funds representing the redemption price have been received, the Depositary shall
convert, transfer, and distribute the proceeds (net of applicable (a) fees and
charges of, and the expenses incurred by, the Depositary, and (b) taxes), retire
ADSs and cancel ADRs upon delivery of such ADSs by Holders thereof and the terms
set forth in Sections 4.1 and 6.2 hereof. If less than all outstanding Deposited
Securities are redeemed, the ADSs to be retired will be selected by lot or on
pro rata basis, as may be determined by the Depositary. The redemption price per
ADS shall be the per Deposited Security amount received by the Depositary upon
the redemption of the Deposited Securities represented by American Depositary
Shares (subject to the terms of Section 4.8 hereof and the applicable fees and
charges of, and reasonable expenses incurred by, the Depositary, and taxes)
multiplied by the number of Deposited Securities represented by each ADS
redeemed.

          Section 4.8 Conversion of Foreign Currency. Subject to any
restrictions imposed by ROC law and regulations, including, without limitation,
receipt of foreign exchange approval from the Central Bank of China for
conversion of funds from and/or into NT dollars 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, which in the judgment of the Depositary can at such time be converted on
a practicable basis, by sale or in any other manner that it may determine in
accordance with applicable law, into Dollars transferable to the United States
and distributable to the Holders entitled thereto, the Depositary shall, subject
to the laws and regulations of the Republic of China, convert or cause to be
converted, by sale or in any other manner that it may determine, such Foreign
Currency into Dollars, and shall distribute such Dollars (net of any applicable
fees, any reasonable and customary expenses incurred in such conversion and any
reasonable expenses incurred on behalf of the Holders in complying with currency
exchange control or other governmental or regulatory requirements) in accordance
with the terms of the applicable sections of this Deposit Agreement. If the
Depositary shall have distributed warrants or other instruments that entitle the
holders thereof to such Dollars, the Depositary shall distribute such Dollars to
the holders of such warrants and/or instruments upon surrender thereof for
cancellation, in either case without liability for interest thereon. Such

                                      -31-
<PAGE>

distribution may be made upon an averaged or other practicable basis without
regard to any distinctions among Holders on account of any application of
exchange restrictions or otherwise.

     If such conversion or distribution generally or with regard to a particular
Holder can be effected only with the approval or license of any government or
agency thereof, the Depositary shall have authority to file such application for
approval or license, if any, as it may deem appropriate. If at any time the
Depositary shall determine that in its judgment the conversion of any Foreign
Currency and the transfer and distribution of proceeds of such conversion
received by the Depositary is not practical or lawful, or if any approval or
license of any governmental authority or agency thereof that is required for
such conversion, transfer and distribution is denied or, in the opinion of the
Depositary, not obtainable at a reasonable cost or within a reasonable period,
the Depositary may, in its discretion, (i) make such conversion and distribution
in Dollars to the Holders for whom such conversion, transfer and distribution is
lawful and practicable, (ii) distribute the Foreign Currency (or an appropriate
document evidencing the right to receive such Foreign Currency) to Holders for
whom this is lawful and practicable or (iii) hold (or cause the Custodian to
hold) such Foreign Currency (without liability for interest thereon) for the
respective accounts of the Holders entitled to receive the same.

     Section 4.9 Fixing of ADS Record Date. Whenever the Depositary shall
receive notice of the fixing of a record date by the Company for the
determination of holders of Deposited Securities entitled to receive any
distribution (whether in cash, Eligible Securities, rights, or other entitlement
distribution), or whenever for any reason the Depositary causes a change in the
number of Deposited Securities that are represented by each American Depositary
Share, or whenever the Depositary shall receive notice of any meeting, or
solicitation of consents or of proxies, of holders of Deposited Securities, or
whenever the Depositary shall find it necessary or convenient in connection with
the giving of any notice, solicitation of any consent or any other matter, the
Depositary shall fix a record date (the "ADS Record Date") for the determination
of the Holders of Receipts who shall be entitled to receive such distribution,
to give instructions for the exercise of voting rights at any such meeting, to
give or withhold such consent, to receive such notice or solicitation or to
otherwise take action, or to exercise the rights of Holders with respect to such
changed number of Deposited Securities represented by each American Depositary
Share. The Depositary shall establish the ADS Record Date as closely as possible
to the applicable record date for the Deposited Securities (if any) set by the
Company in the Republic of China. Subject to applicable law and the provisions
of Section 4.1 through 4.8 and to the other terms and conditions of this Deposit
Agreement, only the Holders of Receipts at the close of business in New York on
such ADS Record Date shall be entitled to receive such distribution, to give
such voting instructions, to receive such notice or solicitation, or otherwise
take action. The Depositary shall promptly notify the New York Stock Exchange,
Inc. of any action to fix an ADS Record Date or to close the transfer books for
the ADSs.

     Section 4.10 Voting of Deposited Securities.

          (a) Voting by Shareholders. The ROC Company Law and the Articles of
Incorporation of the Company, in each case, as in effect on the date hereof,
provide that: (i) a holder of Shares (including holders of interests in any
Certificate of Payment evidencing the irrevocable right to receive Shares) is
entitled to one vote for each Share held, except that the number of votes of a
holder of more than 3% of the total outstanding Shares is discounted by the
Company by a factor of 0.1% of that portion of the Shares held in excess of 3%
(e.g., a holder of 10% of the total outstanding Shares would be permitted to
exercise voting rights only with respect of a 9.93% of such Shares), (ii) the
election of directors and supervisors takes place by means of cumulative voting
and (iii) a shareholder must, as to all matters subject to a vote of
shareholders (other than the election of directors and supervisors), exercise
the voting rights for all Shares held by such shareholder in the same manner
(e.g., a holder of 1,000 Shares cannot split his/her votes but must vote all
1,000 Shares in the same manner except in the event or cumulative voting for an
election of directors and supervisors). The voting rights attaching to the
Deposited Securities must be exercised by, or on behalf of, the Depositary, as
representative of the Holders, collectively in the same manner, except in the
case of an election of directors and supervisors, which shall be on a cumulative
basis. Deposited Securities which have been withdrawn from the ADR
Facilities and timely transferred on the Company's register of shareholders to a
person other than the Depositary may be voted by the registered holder(s)
thereof directly, subject, in each case, to the limitations of ROC Law and the
Articles of Incorporation of the Company. Holders may not receive sufficient
advance notice of shareholders' meetings to enable them to timely withdraw the
Deposited Securities and vote at such meetings and may not be able to re-deposit
the withdrawn securities under the terms of the Deposit Agreement.

          (b) Voting by ADS Holders. Holders of ADSs have no individual voting
rights with respect to the Deposited Securities represented by their ADSs. Each
Holder shall be deemed, by acceptance of ADSs or acquisition of any beneficial
interest therein, to have authorized and directed the Depositary, without
liability, to appoint the Chairman of the Company (or his/her designate), as
representative of the Depositary, the Custodian or the nominee who is registered
in the ROC as representative of the Holders in respect of the Deposited
Securities (the "Registered Holder"), to vote the Shares or other Deposited
Securities in accordance with the terms hereof.

     The Company agrees to timely notify the Depositary of any proposed
shareholders' meeting and to provide to the Depositary in New York, at least 24
calendar days before any shareholders' meeting, sufficient copies as the
Depositary may reasonably request of English language translations of the
Company's notice of shareholders' meeting and the agenda of the materials to be
voted on (in the form the Company generally makes available to holders of Shares
in the ROC), including, without limitation, a list of candidates proposed by the
Company for an election of directors or supervisors (such materials
collectively, the "Shareholder Notice"). As soon as practicable after receipt by
the Depositary of the requisite number of Shareholder Notices, the Depositary
shall establish the ADS Record Date (upon the terms of Section 4.9 hereof) and

                                      -33-
<PAGE>

shall, at the Company's expense and, provided no U.S. legal prohibitions exist,
deliver to Holders as of the applicable ADS Record Date, (i) the Shareholder
Notice, (ii) a depositary notice setting forth the manner in which Holders of
ADSs may instruct the Depositary to cause the Deposited Securities represented
by their ADSs to be voted under the terms of this Deposit Agreement including, a
description of the Management Proxy (as defined below), together with a form of
voting instructions and/or other means to provide voting instructions (the
depositary notice and the related materials prepared by the Depositary
collectively, the "Depositary Notice"). The Depositary is under no obligation to
deliver the Shareholder Notice and the Depositary Notice to Holders if the
Company has failed to provide to the Depositary in New York the requisite number
of Shareholder Notices at least 24 calendar days prior to the date of any
shareholders' meeting. If the Depositary has not delivered the Shareholder
Notice or Depositary Notice to Holders, it will endeavor to cause all Deposited
Securities represented by ADRs to be present at the relevant Shareholders'
meeting insofar as practicable and permitted under applicable law but will not
cause the Shares or other Deposited Securities to be voted; provided, however,
that the Depositary may determine, at its sole discretion, to send such
Shareholder Notice and Depositary Notice to Holders and/or cause the Shares or
other Deposited Securities to be voted as it deems appropriate. There can be no
assurance that Holders generally or any Holder in particular will receive
Shareholder Notices and Depositary Notices with sufficient time to enable the
return of voting instructions to the Depositary in a timely manner.

     Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Deposit Agreement, the
Depositary shall not have any obligation to take any action with respect to any
meeting, or solicitation of consents or proxies, of holders of Shares or other
Deposited Securities if the taking of such action would violate U.S. laws.

          (c) Voting of Deposited Securities Upon ADS Holders' Instructions. If
Holders of ADSs together holding at least 51% of all the ADSs (including
Temporary ADSs) outstanding as of the relevant ADS Record Date shall instruct
the Depositary, prior to the date established for such purpose by the
Depositary, to vote in the same manner in respect of one or more resolutions to
be proposed at a shareholders' meeting (including resolutions for the election
of directors and/or supervisors), the Depositary shall notify to the Chairman of
the Company (or his/her designate) and appoint the Chairman of the Company (or
his/her designate) as the representative of the Depositary and the Registered
Holders to attend such shareholders' meeting and vote all Deposited Securities
evidenced by ADSs then outstanding (including Temporary ADSs) in the manner so
instructed by such Holders. If voting instructions are received by the
Depositary on or before the date established by the Depositary for the receipt
of such instructions from any Holder as of the ADS Record Date, which are signed
but without further indication as to voting instructions, the Depositary shall
deem such Holder to have instructed a vote in favor of the items set forth in
such instructions. The Depositary and Custodian shall not have any obligation to
monitor, and shall not incur any liability for, the actions, or the failure to
act, of the Chairman of the Company (or his/her designate) as representative of
the Registered Holder.

                                      -34-
<PAGE>

          (d) Management Proxy. If, for any reason (other than a failure by the
Company to supply the requisite number of Shareholder Notices to the Depositary
within the requisite time period provided in this Section 4.10) the Depositary
has not, prior to the date established for such purpose by the Depositary
received instructions from Holders together holding at least 51% of all ADSs
(including Temporary ADSs) outstanding at the relevant ADS Record Date, to vote
in the same manner in respect of any resolution (including resolutions for the
election of directors and/or supervisors), then, subject to the following
paragraph, the Holders shall be deemed to have authorized and directed the
Depositary to give a discretionary proxy (a "Management Proxy") to the Chairman
of the Company (or his/her designate) as the representative of the Registered
Holder to attend and vote at such meeting all the Deposited Securities
represented by ADSs then outstanding (including Temporary ADSs) in his or her
discretion. In such circumstances, the Chairman of the Company (or his/her
designate) shall be free to exercise the votes attaching to the Deposited
Securities in any manner he or she wishes, which may not be in the interests of
the Holders.

          The Depositary's grant of a Management Proxy in the manner and
circumstances described in the preceding paragraph shall be subject to the
receipt by the Depositary prior to each shareholders' meeting of an opinion of
ROC counsel addressed to, and in form and substance satisfactory to, the
Depositary to the effect that under ROC law (i) the arrangements relating to the
Management Proxy are permissible, and (ii) the Depositary will not be deemed to
be authorized to exercise any discretion when causing the voting in accordance
with this Section 4.10 and will not be subject to any potential liability under
ROC law for losses arising from such voting. In the event the Depositary does
not receive such opinion, the Depositary will not grant the Management Proxy but
will cause the Deposited Securities to be present at the shareholders' meeting
to the extent practicable and permitted by applicable law but will not cause the
Deposited Securities to be voted or the Management Proxy to be granted.

          The Depositary shall not, and the Depositary shall ensure that the
Custodian and its nominees do not, vote or attempt to exercise the right to vote
that attaches to the Shares or other Deposited Securities, other than in
accordance with instructions given in accordance with this Section 4.10. The
terms of this Section 4.10 may be amended from time to time in accordance with
the terms of this Deposit Agreement. By continuing to hold ADSs after the
effective time of such amendment all Holders and Beneficial Owners shall be
deemed to have agreed to the terms of this Section 4.10 as so amended.

     Section 4.11 Changes Affecting Deposited Securities. Upon any change in
nominal or par value, split-up, cancellation, 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 the Custodian in exchange for, or in conversion of or replacement
of or otherwise in respect of, such Deposited Securities shall, to the extent
permitted by law, be treated as new Deposited Securities under this Deposit
Agreement, and the Receipts shall, subject to the provisions of this Deposit
Agreement and applicable law, evidence American Depositary Shares

                                      -35-
<PAGE>

representing the right to receive such additional or replacement securities, as
applicable. The Depositary may, with the Company's approval, and shall, if the
Company shall so request, subject to the terms of the Deposit Agreement and
receipt of an opinion of counsel to the Company provided pursuant to Section 5.7
hereof and satisfactory to the Depositary that such distributions are not in
violation of any applicable laws or regulations, execute and deliver additional
Receipts as in the case of a dividend of Eligible Securities, or call for the
surrender of outstanding Receipts to be exchanged for new Receipts, in either
case, as well as in the event of newly deposited Shares, with necessary
modifications to the form of Receipt contained in Exhibit A hereto, specifically
describing such new Deposited Securities or corporate change. The Company agrees
to, jointly with the Depositary, amend the Registration Statement on Form F-6 as
filed with the Commission to permit the issuance of such new form of Receipts.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any security so received may
not be lawfully distributed to some or all Holders, the Depositary may, with the
Company's approval, and shall, if the Company requests, subject to receipt of an
opinion of Company's counsel satisfactory to the Depositary that such action is
not in violation of any applicable laws or regulations, sell such securities at
public or private sale, at such place or places and upon such terms as it may
deem proper and may allocate the net proceeds of such sales (net of (a) fees and
charges of, and reasonable expenses incurred by, the Depositary and (b) taxes)
for the account of the Holders otherwise entitled to such securities upon
an averaged or other practicable basis without regard to any distinctions among
such Holders and distribute the net proceeds so allocated to the extent
practicable as in the case of a distribution received in cash pursuant to
Section 4.1. The Depositary shall not be responsible for (i) any failure to
determine that it may be lawful or feasible to make such securities available to
Holders in general or to any Holder in particular, (ii) any foreign exchange
exposure or loss incurred in connection with such sale, or (iii) any liability
to the purchaser of such securities.

     Section 4.12 Available Information. From and after the date hereof, the
Company is subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act
and accordingly files certain information with the Commission. These reports and
documents can be inspected and copied at the public reference facilities
maintained by the Commission located at Judiciary Plaza, 450 Fifth Street, N.W.,
Washington D.C. 20549 and at the Commission's New York City office located at
Seven World Trade Center, 13th Floor, New York, New York 10048.

     Section 4.13 Reports. The Depositary shall make available for inspection by
Holders at its Principal Office any reports and communications, including any
proxy soliciting materials, received from the Company which are both (a)
received by the Depositary, the Custodian, or the nominee of either of them 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
mail to Holders copies of such reports when furnished by the Company pursuant to
Section 5.6.

     Section 4.14 List of Holders. Promptly upon written request by the Company,
the Depositary shall furnish to it a list, as of a recent date, of the names,
addresses and holdings of American Depositary Shares of all Holders.

                                      -36-

     Section 4.15 Taxation. The Depositary will, and will instruct the Custodian
to, forward to the Company or its agents such information from its records as
the Company may reasonably request to enable the Company or its agents to file
the necessary tax reports with governmental authorities or agencies. The
Depositary, the Custodian or the Company and its agents may file such reports as
are necessary to reduce or eliminate applicable taxes on dividends and on other
distributions in respect of Deposited Securities under applicable tax treaties
or laws for the Holders and Beneficial Owners. In accordance with instructions
from the Company and to the extent practicable, the Depositary or the Custodian
will take reasonable administrative actions to obtain tax refunds, reduced
withholding of tax at source on dividends and other benefits under applicable
tax treaties or laws with respect to dividends and other distributions on the
Deposited Securities. As a condition to receiving such benefits, Holders and
Beneficial Owners of American Depositary Shares may be required from time to
time, and in a timely manner, to file such proof of taxpayer status, residence
and beneficial ownership (as applicable), to execute such certificates and to
make such representations and warranties, or to provide any other information or
documents, as the Depositary or the Custodian may deem necessary or proper to
fulfill the Depositary's or the Custodian's obligations under applicable law.
The Holders and Beneficial Owners shall indemnify the Depositary, the Company,
the Custodian and any of their respective directors, employees, agents and
Affiliates against, and hold each of them harmless from any claims by any
governmental authority with respect to taxes, additions to tax, penalties or
interest arising out of any refund of taxes, reduced rate of withholding at
source or other tax benefit obtained.

     If the Company (or any of its agents) withholds from any distribution any
amount on account of taxes or governmental charges, or pays any other tax in
respect of such distribution (i.e., stamp duty tax, capital gains or other
similar tax), the Company shall (and shall cause such agent to) remit promptly
to the Depositary information about such taxes or governmental charges withheld
or paid, and, if so requested, the tax receipt (or other proof of payment to the
applicable governmental authority) therefor, in each case, in a form
satisfactory to the Depositary. The Depositary shall, to the extent required by
U.S. law, report to Holders any taxes withheld by it or the Custodian, and, if
such information is provided to it by the Company, any taxes withheld by the
Company. The Depositary and the Custodian shall not be required to provide the
Holders with any evidence of the remittance by the Company (or its agents) of
any taxes withheld, or of the payment of taxes by the Company, except to the
extent the evidence is provided by the Company to the Depositary. Neither the
Depositary nor the Custodian shall be liable for the failure by any Holder or
Beneficial Owner to obtain the benefits of credits on the basis non-U.S. tax
paid against such Holder's or Beneficial Owner's income tax liability.

     The Depositary is under no obligation to provide the Holders and Beneficial
Owners with any information about the tax status of the Company. The Depositary
shall not incur any liability for any tax consequences that may be incurred by
Holders and Beneficial Owners on account of their ownership of the American
Depositary Shares, including without limitation, tax consequences resulting from
the Company (or any of its subsidiaries) being treated as a "Foreign

                                      -37-

Personal Holding Company," or as a "Passive Foreign Investment Company" (in each
case as defined in the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and the regulations issued
thereunder) or otherwise.

                  THE DEPOSITARY, THE CUSTODIAN AND THE COMPANY

     Section 5.1 Maintenance of Office and Transfer Books by the Registrar.
Until termination of this Deposit Agreement in accordance with its terms, the
Registrar shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an
office and facilities for the execution and delivery, registration of issuances,
registration of transfers, combination and split-up of Receipts, the surrender
of Receipts for the purpose of withdrawal of Deposited Securities in accordance
with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement.

     The Registrar shall keep books for the registration of issuances and
transfers of Receipts which at all reasonable times shall be open for inspection
by the Company and by the Holders of such Receipts, provided that such
inspection shall not be, to the Registrar's knowledge, for the purpose
of communicating with Holders of such Receipts in the interest of a business or
object other than the business of the Company or other than a matter
related to this Deposit Agreement or the Receipts.

     The Registrar may close the transfer books with respect to the Receipts, at
any time or from time to time, when deemed necessary or advisable by it in good
faith in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder, or at the
reasonable written request of the Company subject, in all cases, to Section 7.8
hereof.

     If any Receipts or the American Depositary Shares evidenced thereby are
listed on one or more stock exchanges or automated quotation systems in the
United States, the Depositary shall act as Registrar or, with the written
approval of the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld,
appoint a Registrar or one or more co-registrars for registration of Receipts
and transfers, combinations and split-ups, and to countersign such Receipts in
accordance with any requirements of such exchanges or systems. Such Registrar or
co-registrars may be removed and a substitute or substitutes appointed by the
Depositary after consultation with the Company or upon the reasonable request of
the Company.

     Section 5.2 Exoneration. Neither the Depositary nor the Company shall be
obligated to do or perform any act which is inconsistent with the provisions of
this Deposit Agreement or incur any liability (i) if the Depositary or the
Company shall be prevented or forbidden from, or delayed in, doing or performing
any act or thing required by the terms of this Deposit Agreement, by reason of
any provision of any present or future law or regulation of the United States,
the Republic of China or any other country, or of any other governmental
authority or regulatory authority or stock exchange, or on account of the
possible criminal or civil penalties or restraint, or by reason of any
provision, present or future of the Articles of Incorporation of the Company

                                      -38-

or any provision of or governing any Deposited Securities, or by reason of any
act of God or war or other circumstances beyond its control (including, without
limitation, nationalization, expropriation, currency restrictions, work
stoppage, strikes, civil unrest, revolutions, rebellions, explosions and
computer failure), (ii) by reason of any exercise of, or failure to exercise,
any discretion provided for in this Deposit Agreement or in the Articles of
Incorporation of the Company or provisions of or governing Deposited Securities,
(iii) for any action or inaction in reliance upon the advice or information from
legal counsel, accountants, any person presenting Shares for deposit, any
Holder, any Beneficial Owner or authorized representative thereof, or any other
person believed by it in good faith to be competent to give such advice or
information, (iv) for the inability by a Holder or Beneficial Owner to benefit
from any distribution, offering, right or other benefit which is made available
to holders of Deposited Securities but is not, under the terms of this Deposit
Agreement, made available to Holders of American Depositary Shares or (v) for
any consequential or punitive damages for any breach of the terms of this
Deposit Agreement.

     The Depositary, its controlling persons, its agents, any Custodian and the
Company, its controlling persons and its agents may rely and shall be protected
in acting upon any written notice, request or other document believed by it to
be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.

     No disclaimer of liability under the Securities Act is intended by any
provision of this Deposit Agreement.

     Section 5.3 Standard of Care. The Company and its agents assume no
obligation and shall not be subject to any liability under this Deposit
Agreement or the Receipts to Holders or Beneficial Owners or other persons,
except that the Company and its agents agree to perform their obligations
specifically set forth in this Deposit Agreement without negligence or bad
faith.

     The Depositary and its agents assume no obligation and shall not be subject
to any liability under this Deposit Agreement or the Receipts to Holders or
Beneficial Owners or other persons, except that the Depositary and its agents
agree to perform their obligations specifically set forth in this Deposit
Agreement without negligence or bad faith. The Depositary and the Company
undertake to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set
forth in this Deposit Agreement, and no implied covenants and obligations should
be read into this Deposit Agreement against the Depositary or the Company or
their respective agents.

     Without limitation of the foregoing, neither the Depositary, nor the
Company, nor any of their respective controlling persons, or agents, 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
reasonably satisfactory to it against all expense (including reasonable fees and
disbursements of counsel) and liability be furnished as often as may be required
(and no Custodian shall be under any obligation whatsoever with respect to such
proceedings, the responsibility of the Custodian being solely to the
Depositary).

                                      -39-
<PAGE>

     The Depositary and its agents shall not be liable for any failure to carry
out any instructions to vote any of the Deposited Securities, or for the manner
in which any vote is cast or the effect of any vote, provided that any such
action or omission is in good faith and in accordance with the terms of this
Deposit Agreement. The Depositary shall not incur any liability for any failure
to determine that any distribution or action may be lawful or reasonably
practicable, for the content of any information submitted to it by the Company
for distribution to the Holders or for any inaccuracy of any translation
thereof, for any investment risk associated with acquiring an interest in the
Deposited Securities, for the validity or worth of the Deposited Securities or
for any tax consequences that may result from the ownership of ADSs, Shares or
Deposited Securities, for the credit-worthiness of any third party, for allowing
any rights to lapse upon the terms of this Deposit Agreement, for the failure or
timeliness of any notice from the Company or for the failure of the Company to
exchange any Certificate of Payment into Shares. The Depositary shall not be
obligated in any way to monitor or enforce the obligations of the Company,
including, without limitation, in respect of any Certificate of Payment, the
conversion of such Certificate of Payment into Shares.

     Section 5.4 Resignation and Removal of the Depositary; Appointment of
Successor Depositary. The Depositary may at any time resign as Depositary
hereunder by written notice of resignation delivered to the Company,
such resignation to be effective on the earlier of (i) the 60th day after
delivery thereof to the Company (whereupon the Depositary shall be entitled to
take the actions contemplated in Section 6.2 hereof), or (ii) the appointment by
the Company of a successor depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as
hereinafter provided.

     The Depositary may at any time be removed by the Company by written notice
of such removal, which removal shall be effective on the earlier of (i) the 60th
day after delivery thereof to the Depositary (whereupon the Depositary shall be
entitled to take the actions contemplated in Section 6.2 hereof), or (ii) upon
the appointment by the Company of a successor depositary and its acceptance of
such appointment as hereinafter provided.

     In case at any time the Depositary acting hereunder shall resign or be
removed, the Company shall use its best efforts to appoint a successor
depositary, which shall be a bank or trust company having an office in the
Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. Every successor depositary shall be
required by the Company to execute and deliver to its immediate predecessor and
to the Company an instrument in writing accepting its appointment hereunder, and
thereupon such successor depositary, without any further act or deed (except as
required by applicable law), shall become fully vested with all the rights,
powers, duties and obligations of its immediate predecessor (other than as
contemplated in Sections 5.8 and 5.9). The immediate predecessor depositary,
upon payment of all sums due it and on the written request of the Company shall,
(i) execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor all rights
and powers of such predecessor hereunder (other than as contemplated in Sections
5.8 and 5.9), (ii) duly assign, transfer and deliver all right, title and
interest to the Deposited Securities to such successor, and (iii) deliver to
such successor a list of the Holders of all outstanding Receipts and such other

                                      -40-
<PAGE>

information relating to Receipts and Holders thereof as the successor may
reasonably request. Any such successor depositary shall promptly mail notice of
its appointment to such Holders.

     Any corporation into or with which the Depositary may be merged or
consolidated shall be the successor of the Depositary without the execution or
filing of any document or any further act.

     Section 5.5 The Custodian. The Depositary has initially appointed Citibank,
N.A., Taipei Branch as Custodian for the purpose of this Deposit Agreement. The
Custodian or its successors in acting hereunder shall be subject at all times
and in all respects to the direction of the Depositary for the Shares for which
the Custodian acts as custodian and shall be responsible solely to it. If any
Custodian resigns or is discharged from its duties hereunder with respect to any
Deposited Securities and no other Custodian has previously been appointed
hereunder, the Depositary shall promptly appoint a substitute custodian that is
organized under the laws of the Republic of China. The Depositary shall require
such resigning or discharged Custodian to deliver the Deposited Securities held
by it, together with all such records maintained by it as Custodian with respect
to such Deposited Securities as the Depositary may request, to the Custodian
designated by the Depositary. Whenever the Depositary determines, in its
discretion, that it is appropriate to do so, it may appoint an additional
custodian with respect to any Deposited Securities, or discharge the Custodian
with respect to any Deposited Securities and appoint a substitute custodian,
which shall thereafter be Custodian hereunder with respect to the Deposited
Securities. Immediately upon any such change, the Depositary shall give notice
thereof in writing to all Holders of Receipts, each other Custodian and the
Company.

     Upon the appointment of any successor depositary, any Custodian then acting
hereunder shall, unless otherwise instructed by the Depositary, continue to be
the Custodian of the Deposited Securities without any further act or writing,
and shall be subject to the direction of the successor depositary. The successor
depositary so appointed shall, nevertheless, on the written request of any
Custodian, execute and deliver to such Custodian all such instruments as may be
proper to give to such Custodian full and complete power and authority to act on
the direction of such successor depositary.

     Section 5.6 Notices and Reports. On or before the first date on which the
Company gives notice, by publication or otherwise, of any meeting of holders of
Deposited Securities, or of any adjourned meeting of such holders, or of the
taking of any action by such holders other than at a meeting, or of the taking
of any action in respect of any cash or other distributions or the offering of
any rights in respect of Deposited Securities, the Company shall transmit to the
Depositary and the Custodian a copy of the notice thereof in the English
language but otherwise in the form given or to be given to holders of Deposited
Securities. The Company shall also furnish to the Custodian and the Depositary a
summary, in English, of any applicable provisions or proposed provisions of the
Articles of Incorporation of the Company that may be relevant or pertain to such
notice of meeting or be the subject of a vote thereat. The Depositary shall
arrange, at the request of the Company and at the Company's expense, for the
mailing of copies

                                      -41-
<PAGE>

thereof to all Holders or make such notices, reports and other communications
available to all Holders on a basis similar to that for holders of Deposited
Securities or on such other basis as the Company may advise the Depositary or as
may be required by any applicable law, regulation or stock exchange requirement.
The Company has delivered to the Depositary and the Custodian a copy of the
Company's Articles of Incorporation along with the provisions of or governing
the Deposited Securities, and promptly upon any amendment thereto or change
therein, the Company shall deliver to the Depositary and the Custodian a copy of
such amendment thereto or change therein. The Depositary may rely upon such copy
for all purposes of this Deposit Agreement.

     The Depositary will, at the expense of the Company, make available a copy
of any such notices, reports or communications issued by the Company and
delivered to the Depositary for inspection by the Holders of the Receipts
evidencing the American Depositary Shares governed by such provisions at the
Depositary's Principal Office, at the office of the Custodian and at any other
designated transfer office.

     Section 5.7 Issuance of Additional Eligible Securities, ADSs, etc. The
Company agrees that in the event it or any of its Affiliates proposes (i) an
issuance, sale or distribution of additional Eligible Securities (ii) an
offering of rights to subscribe for Eligible Securities, (iii) an issuance of
securities convertible into or exchangeable for Eligible Securities, (iv) an
issuance of rights to subscribe for securities convertible into or exchangeable
for Eligible Securities, (v) an elective dividend of cash or Eligible
Securities, (vi) a redemption of Deposited Securities, (vii) a meeting of
holders of Deposited Securities, or solicitation of consents or proxies,
relating to any reclassification of securities, merger or consolidation or
transfer of assets, or (viii) any reclassification, recapitalization,
reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale of assets which affects the
Deposited Securities, it will obtain legal advice and take all steps necessary
to ensure that the application of the proposed transaction to Holders and
Beneficial Owners does not violate the laws and regulations of the Republic of
China and the registration provisions of the Securities Act, or any other
applicable laws (including, without limitation, the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended, the Exchange Act or the securities laws of the states of the
United States). In support of the foregoing, the Company will, at the request of
the Depositary, furnish to the Depositary (a) a written opinion of U.S. counsel
(reasonably satisfactory to the Depositary) stating whether or not application
of such transaction to Holders and Beneficial Owners (1) requires a registration
statement under the Securities Act to be in effect or (2) is exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act and (b) an opinion of ROC
counsel stating that (1) making the transaction available to Holders and
Beneficial Owners does not violate the laws or regulations of the Republic of
China; provided however, that no such opinion shall be required in the event of
an issuance of Eligible Securities as a bonus, share split or similar event or
(2) all requisite regulatory consents and approvals have been obtained in the
Republic of China. If the filing of a registration statement is required, the
Depositary shall not have any obligation to proceed with the transaction unless
it shall have received evidence reasonably satisfactory to it that such
registration statement has been declared effective. If, being so advised by
counsel, the Company determines that a transaction is required to be registered
under the Securities Act, the Company will either (i) register such transaction
to the extent necessary, (ii) alter the terms of the

                                      -42-
<PAGE>

transaction to avoid the registration requirements of the Securities Act or
(iii) direct the Depositary to take specific measures, in each case as
contemplated in this Deposit Agreement, to prevent such transaction from
violating the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

     The Company agrees with the Depositary that neither the Company nor any of
its Affiliates will at any time (i) deposit any Eligible Securities, either upon
original issuance or upon a sale of Eligible Securities previously issued and
reacquired by the Company or by any such Affiliate, or (ii) issue additional
Eligible Securities, rights to subscribe for such Eligible Securities,
securities convertible into or exchangeable for Eligible Securities or rights to
subscribe for such securities, unless such transaction and the securities
issuable in such transaction are exempt from registration under the Securities
Act and, if applicable, the Exchange Act or have been registered under the
Securities Act and, if applicable, the Exchange Act (and such registration
statement has been declared effective).

     Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Deposit Agreement, nothing
in this Deposit Agreement shall be deemed to obligate the Company to file any
registration statement in respect of any proposed transaction.

     Section 5.8 Indemnification. The Depositary agrees to indemnify the Company
and its directors, officers, employees, agents and Affiliates against, and hold
each of them harmless from, any direct loss, liability, tax, charge or expense
of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, the reasonable fees and
expenses of counsel) which may arise out of acts performed or omitted by the
Depositary under the terms hereof due to the negligence or bad faith of the
Depositary.

     The Company agrees to indemnify the Depositary, the Custodian and any of
their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and Affiliates against,
and hold each of them harmless from, any direct loss, liability, tax, charge or
expense of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, the reasonable
fees and expenses of counsel) that may arise (a) out of or in connection with
any offer, issuance, sale, resale, transfer, deposit or withdrawal of Receipts,
American Depositary Shares, the Eligible Securities or Deposited Securities, as
the case may be, (b) out of or as a result of any offering documents in respect
thereof or (c) out of acts performed or omitted, including, but not limited to,
any delivery by the Depositary on behalf of the Company of information regarding
the Company in connection with this Deposit Agreement, the Receipts, the
American Depositary Shares, the Eligible Securities, or any Deposited
Securities, in any such case (i) by the Depositary, the Custodian or any of
their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and Affiliates, except
to the extent such loss, liability, tax, charge or expense is due to the
negligence or bad faith of any of them, or (ii) by the Company or any of its
directors, officers, employees, agents and Affiliates except to the extent that
such liability or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement of
material fact or omission that is made in reliance upon and in conformity with
information relating to the Depositary or the Custodian, as the case may be,
furnished in writing to the Company by the Depositary or the Custodian expressly
for use in any document relating to the ADSs.

                                      -43-

<PAGE>

     The obligations set forth in this Section shall survive the termination of
this Deposit Agreement and the succession or substitution of any party hereto.

     Any person seeking indemnification hereunder (an "indemnified person")
shall notify the person from whom it is seeking indemnification (the
"indemnifying person") of the commencement of any indemnifiable action or claim
promptly after such indemnified person becomes aware of such commencement
(provided that the failure to make such notification shall not affect such
indemnified person's rights to seek indemnification except to the extent the
indemnifying person is materially prejudiced by such failure) and shall consult
in good faith with the indemnifying person as to the conduct of the defense of
such action or claim that may give rise to an indemnity hereunder, which defense
shall be reasonable in the circumstances. No indemnified person shall compromise
or settle any action or claim that may give rise to an indemnity hereunder
without the consent of the indemnifying person, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld.

     Section 5.9 Fees and Charges of Depositary. Holders, Beneficial Owners and
persons depositing Eligible Securities or surrendering ADSs for cancellation and
withdrawal of Deposited Securities shall be required to pay to the Depositary
the Depositary's fees and related charges identified as payable by them
respectively in the Fee Schedule attached hereto as Exhibit B. All fees and
charges so payable may, at any time and from time to time, be changed by
agreement between the Depositary and the Company, but, in the case of fees and
charges payable by Holders and Beneficial Owners, only in the manner
contemplated in Section 6.1. The Depositary shall provide, without charge, a
copy of its latest fee schedule to anyone upon request.

     The Company agrees to promptly pay to the Depositary such other fees and
charges and to reimburse the Depositary for such reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses as the Depositary and the Company may agree to in writing from time to
time. Responsibility for payment of such charges may at any time and from time
to time be changed by agreement between the Company and the Depositary. Unless
otherwise agreed, the Depositary shall present its statement for such expenses
and fees or charges to the Company once every three months. The charges and
expenses of the Custodian are for the sole account of the Depositary.

     The right of the Depositary to receive payment of fees, charges and
expenses as provided above shall survive the termination of this Deposit
Agreement. As to any Depositary, upon the resignation or removal of such
Depositary as described in Section 5.4 hereof, such right shall extend for those
fees, charges and expenses incurred prior to the effectiveness of such
resignation or removal.

     Section 5.10 Pre-Release Transactions. Subject to the further terms and
provisions of this Section 5.10, the Depositary, its Affiliates and their
agents, on their own behalf, may own and deal in any class of securities of the
Company and its Affiliates and in ADSs. In its capacity as Depositary, the
Depositary shall not lend Deposited Securities or ADSs; provided, however, that,
subject to Republic of China law and regulations, the Depositary may (i) issue
ADSs prior to the

                                      -44-
<PAGE>

receipt of Eligible Securities pursuant to Section 2.3 and (ii) deliver
Deposited Securities upon the receipt of ADSs for cancellation upon withdrawal
of Deposited Securities pursuant to Section 2.7, including ADSs which were
issued under (i) above but for which Eligible Securities may not have been
received (each such transaction under (i) above, a "Pre-Release Transaction").
The Depositary may receive ADSs in lieu of Eligible Securities under (i) above.
Each Pre-Release Transaction will be (a) subject to a written agreement whereby
the person or entity (the "Applicant") to whom ADSs are to be delivered (w)
represents that at the time of the Pre-Release Transaction the Applicant or its
customer owns the Eligible Securities that are to be delivered by the Applicant
under such Pre-Release Transaction, (x) agrees to indicate the Depositary as
owner of such Eligible Securities in its records and to hold such Eligible
Securities in trust for the Depositary until such Eligible Securities or ADSs
are delivered to the Depositary or the Custodian, (y) unconditionally guarantees
to deliver to the Depositary or the Custodian, as applicable, such Eligible
Securities or ADSs, and (z) agrees to any additional restrictions or
requirements that the Depositary deems appropriate, (b) at all times fully
collateralized with cash, United States government securities or such other
collateral as the Depositary deems appropriate, (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
Depositary will normally limit the number of ADSs and Eligible Securities
involved in such Pre-Release Transactions at any one time to thirty percent
(30%) of the ADSs outstanding (without giving effect to ADSs outstanding under
(i) above), provided, however, that the Depositary reserves the right to change
or disregard such limit from time to time as it deems appropriate.

     The Depositary may also set limits with respect to the number of ADSs and
Eligible Securities involved in Pre-Release Transactions with any one person on
a case by case basis as it deems appropriate. The Depositary may retain for its
own account any compensation received by it in conjunction with the foregoing.
Collateral provided pursuant to (b) above, but not the earnings thereon, shall
be held for the benefit of the Holders (other than the Applicant). Neither
Temporary ADSs nor any interest in any Payment Certificate shall be eligible for
Pre-Release Transactions hereunder.

     Section 5.11 Restricted Securities Owners. The Company agrees to advise
in writing each of the persons or entities who, to the knowledge of the Company,
holds Restricted Securities that, except as contemplated by Section 2.13 hereof,
such Restricted Securities are ineligible for deposit hereunder and, to the
extent practicable, shall require each of such persons to represent in writing
that such person will not deposit Restricted Securities hereunder.

                                   ARTICLE VI
                            AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

     Section 6.1 Amendment/Supplement. The Receipts outstanding at any time, the
provisions of this Deposit Agreement and the form of Receipt attached hereto and
to be issued

                                      -45-
<PAGE>

under the terms hereof may at any time and from time to time be amended or
supplemented by written agreement between the Company and the Depositary in any
respect which they may deem necessary or desirable without the prior written
consent of the Holders or Beneficial Owners. Any amendment or supplement which
shall impose or increase any fees or charges (other than charges in connection
with foreign exchange control regulations, and taxes and other governmental
charges, delivery and other such expenses), or which shall otherwise materially
prejudice any substantial existing right of Holders or Beneficial Owners, shall
not, however, become effective as to outstanding Receipts until the expiration
of 30 days after notice of such amendment or supplement shall have been given to
the Holders of outstanding Receipts. The parties hereto agree that any
amendments or supplements which (i) are reasonably necessary (as agreed by the
Company and the Depositary) in order for (a) the American Depositary Shares to
be registered on Form F-6 under the Securities Act or (b) the American
Depositary Share(s) to be traded solely in electronic book-entry form and (ii)
do not in either such case impose or increase any fees or charges to be borne by
Holders, shall be deemed not to materially prejudice any substantial rights of
Holders or Beneficial Owners. Every Holder and Beneficial Owner at the time any
amendment or supplement so becomes effective shall be deemed, by continuing to
hold such American Depositary Share(s), to consent and agree to such amendment
or supplement and to be bound by this Deposit Agreement and the Receipt as
amended and supplemented thereby. In no event shall any amendment or supplement
impair the right of the Holder to surrender such Receipt and receive therefor
the Deposited Securities represented thereby, except in order to comply with
mandatory provisions of applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any
governmental body should adopt new laws, rules or regulations which would
require an amendment or supplement of this Deposit Agreement to ensure
compliance therewith, the Company and the Depositary may amend or supplement
this Deposit Agreement and the Receipts at any time in accordance with such
changed laws, rules or regulations. Such amendment or supplement to this Deposit
Agreement and the Receipts in such circumstances may become effective before a
notice of such amendment or supplement is given to Holders or within any other
period of time as required for compliance with such laws, rules or regulations.

     Section 6.2 Termination. The Depositary shall, at any time at the written
direction of the Company, terminate this Deposit Agreement by mailing notice of
such termination to the Holders of all Receipts then outstanding at least 30
days prior to the date fixed in such notice for such termination. If 60 days
shall have expired after (i) the Depositary shall have delivered to the Company
a written notice of its election to resign, or (ii) the Company shall have
delivered to the Depositary a written notice of the removal of the Depositary,
and in either case a successor depositary shall not have been appointed and
accepted its appointment as provided in Section 5.4, the Depositary may
terminate this Deposit Agreement by mailing notice of such termination to the
Holders of all Receipts then outstanding at least 30 days prior to the date
fixed for such termination. On and after the date of termination of this Deposit
Agreement, the Holder of a Receipt will, upon surrender of such Receipt at the
Principal Office of the Depositary, upon the payment of the charges of the
Depositary for the surrender of Receipts referred to in Section 2.7 and subject
to the conditions and restrictions set forth therein and subject always to the
restrictions on withdrawal as may be in effect under the laws and regulations of
the Republic of

                                      -46-
<PAGE>

China, and upon 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 such Receipt. If any Receipts shall remain outstanding
after the date of termination of this Deposit Agreement, the Registrar
thereafter shall discontinue the registration of transfers of Receipts, and the
Depositary shall suspend the distribution of dividends to the Holders thereof,
and shall not give any further notices or perform any further acts under this
Deposit Agreement, except that the Depositary shall continue to collect
dividends and other distributions pertaining to Deposited Securities, shall sell
rights as provided in this Deposit Agreement, and shall continue to deliver
Deposited Securities, subject to the conditions and restrictions set forth in
Section 2.7, 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, or charging, as the case may be, in each case, the charges of the
Depositary for the surrender of a Receipt, any expenses for the account of the
Holder in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement and
any applicable taxes or governmental charges or assessments).

     At any time after the expiration of six months from the date of termination
of this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary may sell the Deposited Securities then
held hereunder and may thereafter hold uninvested the net proceeds of any such
sale, together with any other cash then held by it hereunder, in an unsegregated
account, without liability for interest for the pro rata benefit of the Holders
whose Receipts have not theretofore been surrendered, such Holders 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 this Deposit Agreement with respect to the Receipts, the Deposited
Securities and the American Depositary Shares, except to account for such net
proceeds and other cash (after deducting, or charging, as the case may be, in
each case, the charges of the Depositary for the surrender of a Receipt, any
expenses for the account of the Holder in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this Deposit Agreement and any applicable taxes or governmental
charges or assessments). Upon the termination of this Deposit Agreement, the
Company shall be discharged from all obligations under this Deposit Agreement
except for its obligations to the Depositary under Sections 5.8, 5.9 and 7.6
hereof.

                                   ARTICLE VII
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

     Section 7.1 Counterparts. This Deposit Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of
such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Copies
of this Deposit Agreement shall be maintained with the Depositary and shall be
open to inspection by any Holder during business hours.

     Section 7.2 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Deposit Agreement is for the
exclusive benefit of the parties hereto (and their successors) and shall not be
deemed to give any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim whatsoever to any
other person, except to the extent specifically

                                      -47-
<PAGE>

set forth in this Deposit Agreement. Nothing in this Deposit Agreement shall be
deemed to give rise to a partnership or joint venture among the parties nor
establish a fiduciary or similar relationship among the parties. The parties
hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) the Depositary and its Affiliates may at
any time have multiple banking relationships with the Company and its
Affiliates, (ii) the Depositary and its Affiliates may be engaged at any time in
transactions in which parties adverse to the Company or the Holders or
Beneficial Owners may have interests and (iii) nothing contained in this
Agreement shall (a) preclude the Depositary or any of its Affiliates from
engaging in such transactions or establishing or maintaining such relationships,
(b) obligate the Depositary or any of its Affiliates to disclose such
transactions or relationships or to account for any profit made or payment
received in such transactions or relationships.

     Section 7.3 Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions
contained in this Deposit Agreement or in the Receipts should be or become
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein or therein shall in
no way be affected, prejudiced or disturbed thereby.

     Section 7.4 Holders and Beneficial Owners as Parties: Binding Effect. The
Holders and Beneficial Owners from time to time of American Depositary Shares
shall be parties to the Deposit Agreement and shall be bound by all of the terms
and conditions thereof and of any Receipt by acceptance thereof of any
beneficial interest therein. Holders and Beneficial Owners of International GDSs
issued under the Original Deposit Agreement as heretofore in effect shall, from
and after the date hereof, have all the rights and be subject to all the
obligations of Holders and Beneficial Owners of ADSs hereunder.

     Section 7.6 Governing Law and Jurisdiction. This Deposit Agreement and the
Receipts shall be interpreted in accordance with, and all rights hereunder and
thereunder and provisions hereof and thereof shall be governed by, the laws of
the State of New York without reference to the principles of choice of law
thereof. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Deposit Agreement, any
Receipt or any present or future provisions of the laws of the State of New
York, the rights of holders of Deposited Securities and the obligations and
duties of the Company in respect of the holders of Deposited Securities, as
such, shall be governed by the laws of the Republic of China (or, if applicable,
such other laws as may govern the Deposited Securities).

     Except as set forth in the following paragraph of this Section 7.6, the
Company and the Depositary agree that the federal or state courts in The City of
New York shall have jurisdiction to hear and determine any suit, action or
proceeding and to settle any dispute between them that may arise out of or in
connection with this Deposit Agreement and, for such purposes, each irrevocably
submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts. The Company hereby
irrevocably designates, appoints and empowers CT Corporation System Inc. (the
"Agent") with offices currently at 111 Eighth Avenue, New York, New York 10011
as its authorized agent to receive and accept for and on its behalf, and on
behalf of its properties, assets and revenues, service by mail of any and all
legal process, summons, notices and documents that may be served in any suit,
action or proceeding brought against the Company in any federal or state court
as described in the preceding sentence or in the next paragraph of this Section
7.6. If for any reason the Agent shall cease to be available to act as such, the
Company agrees to designate a new agent in New York on the terms and for the
purposes of this Section 7.6 reasonably satisfactory to the Depositary. The
Company further hereby irrevocably consents and agrees to the service of any and
all legal process, summons, notices and documents in any suit, action or
proceeding against the Company, by service by mail of a copy thereof upon the
Agent (whether or not the appointment of such Agent shall for any reason prove
to be ineffective or such Agent shall fail to

                                      -49-
<PAGE>

accept or acknowledge such service), with a copy mailed to the Company by
registered or certified air mail, postage prepaid, to its address provided in
Section 7.5 hereof. The Company agrees that the failure of the Agent to give any
notice of such service to it shall not impair or affect in any way the validity
of such service or any judgment rendered in any action or proceeding based
thereon.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Depositary and the Company
unconditionally agree that in the event that a Holder or Beneficial Owner brings
a suit, action or proceeding against (a) the Company, (b) the Depositary in its
capacity as Depositary under this Deposit Agreement or (c) against both the
Company and the Depositary, in any such case, in any state or federal court of
the United States, and the Depositary or the Company have any claim, for
indemnification or otherwise, against each other arising out of the subject
matter of such suit, action or proceeding, then the Company and the Depositary
may pursue such claim against each other in the state or federal court in the
United States in which such suit, action, or proceeding is pending and, for such
purposes, the Company and the Depositary irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive
jurisdiction of such courts. The Company agrees that service of process upon the
Agent in the manner set forth in the preceding paragraph shall be effective

             (Incorporated under the laws of The Republic of China)

     CITIBANK, N.A., a national banking association organized and existing under
the laws of the United States of America, as depositary (the "Depositary"),
hereby certifies that ________ is the owner of ________ American Depositary
Shares (hereinafter

                                      A-1
<PAGE>
"ADS"), representing deposited [COMMON SHARES] [INTERESTS IN A GLOBAL

SHARES], par value NT$10.00 per share, including evidence of rights to receive
such [COMMON SHARES (THE "SHARES")] [INTERESTS IN THE CERTIFICATE OF PAYMENT
(THE "CERTIFICATE OF PAYMENT)] (such [SHARES][CERTIFICATE OF PAYMENT] are
hereafter called "Eligible Securities") of Advanced Semiconductor Engineering,
Inc., a corporation incorporated under the laws of The Republic of China (the
"Company"). As of the date of the Deposit Agreement (as hereinafter defined),
each ADS represents [FIVE (5)][AN INTEREST IN A GLOBAL CERTIFICATE OF PAYMENT,
EACH INTEREST REPRESENTING THE IRREVOCABLE RIGHT TO RECEIVE FIVE (5) SHARES]
deposited under the Deposit Agreement with the Custodian, which at the date of
execution of the Deposit Agreement is Citibank, N.A., Taipei Branch (the
"Custodian"). The ratio of American Depositary Shares to Eligible Securities is
subject to amendment as provided in Article IV of the Deposit Agreement. The
Depositary's Principal Office is located at 111 Wall Street, New York, New York
10043, U.S.A.

     (1) The Deposit Agreement. This American Depositary Receipt is one of an
issue of American Depositary Receipts ("Receipts"), all issued and to be issued
upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Amended and Restated Deposit
Agreement, dated as of September 29, 2000 (as amended from time to time, the
"Deposit Agreement"), by and among the Company, the Depositary, and all Holders
and Beneficial Owners from time to time of American Depositary Shares ("ADSs")
evidenced by Receipts issued thereunder, each of whom by accepting an ADS (or an
interest therein) agrees to become a party thereto and becomes bound by all the
terms and conditions thereof. The Deposit Agreement sets forth the rights and
obligations of Holders and Beneficial Owners of Receipts and the rights and
duties of the Depositary in respect of the Eligible Securities deposited
thereunder and any and all other securities, property and cash from time to time
received in respect of such Eligible Securities and held thereunder (such
Eligible Securities, securities, property and cash are herein called "Deposited
Securities"). Copies of the Deposit Agreement are on file at the Principal
Office of the Depositary and with the Custodian.

     The statements made on the face and reverse of this Receipt are summaries
of certain provisions of the Deposit Agreement and the Articles of Incorporation
of the Company (as in effect on the date of the signing of the Deposit
Agreement) and are qualified by and subject to the detailed provisions of the
Deposit Agreement and the Articles of Incorporation, to which reference is
hereby made. All capitalized terms used herein which are not otherwise defined
herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Deposit Agreement. The
Depositary makes no representation or warranty as to the validity or worth of
the Deposited Securities. The Depositary has made arrangements for the
acceptance of the ADSs into DTC. Each Beneficial Owner of ADSs held through DTC
must rely on the procedures of DTC and the DTC Participants to exercise and be
entitled to any rights attributable to such ADSs.

     (2) Surrender of Receipts and Withdrawal of Deposited Securities.

     (a) ROC Requirements. The Depositary and the Company have been advised that
under ROC law, as in effect as of the date hereof, a Holder wishing to withdraw
Deposited Securities from the ADR facility is required to appoint an eligible
agent in the Republic of China to open a

                                      A-2
<PAGE>

securities trading account with a local brokerage firm after receiving an
approval from the TSE and a bank account (the securities trading account and the
bank account, collectively, the "Accounts"), to pay ROC taxes, remit funds,
exercise stockholders' rights and perform such other functions as may be
designated by such withdrawing Holder. In addition, such withdrawing Holder is
also required to appoint a custodian bank to hold the securities in safekeeping,
make confirmations and settle trades and report all relevant information.
Without making such appointment and the opening of such Accounts, the
withdrawing Holder would be unable to hold or subsequently sell the Deposited
Securities withdrawn from the ADR Facilities on the TSE or otherwise. The laws
of the Republic of China applicable to the withdrawal of Deposited Securities
may change from time to time. There can be no assurance that current law will
remain in effect or that future changes of Republic of China law will not
adversely affect the ability of Holders to withdraw Deposited Securities
hereunder.

     (b) Sale of Deposited Securities. Upon surrender of Receipts at the
Principal Office and upon payment of any fees, reasonable expenses, taxes or
other governmental charges as provided hereunder, subject to the terms of this
Deposit Agreement and the Company's Articles of Incorporation, and the transfer
restrictions applicable to the Deposited Securities, if any, Holders may request
that the Deposited Securities represented by such Holders' Receipts be sold on
such Holder's behalf. Any Holder requesting a sale of Deposited Securities may
be required by the Depositary to deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the
Depositary a written order requesting the Depositary to sell, or cause to be
sold, such Deposited Securities. Any such sale of Deposited Securities will be
conducted in accordance with applicable ROC law through a securities company in
the ROC on the TSE or in such other manner as is or may be permitted under
applicable ROC law. Any such sale of Deposited Securities will be at the expense
and risk of the Holder requesting such sale. Any Holder requesting the
Depositary to sell the Deposited Securities represented by such Holder's ADSs
may be required to enter into a separate agreement to cover the terms of the
sale of such Deposited Securities.

     Upon receipt of any proceeds from any such sale, the Depositary shall,
subject to any restrictions imposed by ROC law and regulations, and as provided
hereunder and under the Deposit Agreement, convert or cause to be converted any
such proceeds into U.S., dollars and distribute any such proceeds to the Holders
entitled thereto after deduction or payment of any fees, reasonable expenses,
taxes or governmental charges (including, without limitation, any ROC and U.S.
taxes) incurred in connection with such sale, as provided under the Deposit
Agreement. Any such sale may be subject to ROC taxation on capital gains, if
any, and will be subject to a securities transaction tax in the ROC. The ROC
does not, as of the date hereof, impose tax on capital gains arising from ROC
securities transactions, but there can be no assurance that a capital gains tax
on ROC securities transactions will not be imposed in the future or as to the
manner in which any ROC capital gains tax in respect of a sale of Deposited
Securities would be imposed or calculated.

     (c) Withdrawal of Deposited Securities. The Holder of ADSs shall be
entitled to Delivery (at the Custodian's designated office) of the Deposited
Securities at the time represented

                                      A-3
<PAGE>
by the ADS(s) upon satisfaction of each of the following conditions: (i) the
Holder (or a duly authorized attorney of the Holder) has duly Delivered ADSs to
the Depositary at its Principal Office (and if applicable, the Receipts
evidencing such ADSs) for the purpose of withdrawal of the Deposited Securities
represented thereby, (ii) if so required by the Depositary, the Receipts
Delivered to the Depositary for such purpose have been properly endorsed in
blank or are accompanied by proper instruments of transfer in blank (including
signature guarantees in accordance with standard securities industry practice),
(iii) if so required by the Depositary, the Holder of the ADSs has executed and
delivered to the Depositary a written order directing the Depositary to cause
the Deposited Securities being withdrawn to be Delivered to or upon the written
order of the person(s) designated in such order, (iv) the Holder has delivered
to the Depositary the certification contemplated in Exhibit C to the Deposit
Agreement, duly completed by or on behalf of the Beneficial Owner(s) of the ADSs
surrendered for withdrawal (unless the Depositary is otherwise instructed by the
Company), and (v) all applicable fees and charges of, and reasonable expenses
incurred by, the Depositary and all applicable taxes and governmental charges
(as are set forth in Section 5.9 of, and Exhibit B to, the Deposit Agreement)
have been paid, subject, however, in each case, to the terms and conditions of
the Receipts evidencing the surrendered ADSs, of the Deposit Agreement, of the
Company's Articles of Incorporation and of any applicable laws and regulations
of the Republic of China and the United States and the rules of the Taiwan
Securities Central Depository, and to any provisions of or governing the
Deposited Securities, in each case as in effect at the time thereof.

     Upon satisfaction of each of the conditions specified above, the
Depositary (i) shall cancel the ADSs Delivered to it (and, if applicable, the
Receipts evidencing the ADSs so Delivered), (ii) shall direct the Registrar to
record the cancellation of the ADSs so Delivered on the books maintained for
such purpose, and (iii) shall direct the Custodian to Deliver (without
unreasonable delay) at the Custodian's designated office the Deposited
Securities represented by the ADSs so canceled together with any certificate or
other document of title for the Deposited Securities, or evidence of the
electronic transfer thereof (if available), as the case may be, to or upon the
written order of the person(s) designated in the order delivered to the
Depositary for such purpose, subject however, in each case, to the terms and
conditions of the Deposit Agreement, of the Receipts evidencing the ADSs so
canceled, of the Articles of Incorporation of the Company, of applicable laws
and regulations of the Republic of China and of the United States and of the
rules of the Taiwan Securities Central Depositary, and to the terms and
conditions of or governing the Deposited Securities, in each case as in effect
at the time thereof.

     The Depositary shall not accept for surrender ADSs representing less than a
whole number of Eligible Securities. In the case of the Delivery to it of ADSs
representing a number other than a whole number of Eligible Securities, the
Depositary shall cause ownership of the appropriate whole number of Eligible
Securities to be Delivered in accordance with the terms hereof, and shall, at
the discretion of the Depositary, either (i) return to the person surrendering
such ADSs the number of ADSs representing any remaining fractional Eligible
Security, or (ii) sell or cause to be sold the fractional Eligible Security
represented by the ADS(s) so surrendered and remit the proceeds of such sale
(net of (a) applicable fees and charges of, and expenses incurred

                                      A-4
<PAGE>

by, the Depositary and (b) taxes withheld) to the person surrendering the ADSs.
In addition, trading restrictions on the TSE may result in the price per
Eligible Security or on any lot of any type of Eligible Security other than an
integral multiple of 1,000 Eligible Securities being lower than the price of
Eligible Securities in lots of integral multiples of 1,000 Eligible Securities.

     Notwithstanding anything else contained in any Receipt or the Deposit
Agreement, the Depositary may make delivery at the Principal Office of the
Depositary of (i) any cash dividends or cash distributions, or (ii) any proceeds
from the sale of any distributions of Securities or rights, which are at the
time held by the Depositary in respect of the Deposited Securities represented
by the ADSs surrendered for cancellation and withdrawal. At the request, risk
and expense of any Holder so surrendering ADSs, and for the account of such
Holder, the Depositary shall direct the Custodian to forward (to the extent
permitted by law) any cash or other property (other than securities) held by the
Custodian in respect of the Deposited Securities represented by such ADSs to
the Depositary for delivery at the Principal Office of the Depositary. Such
direction shall be given by letter or, at the request, risk and expense of such
Holder, by cable, telex or facsimile transmission.

     (3) Transfer, Combination and Split-Up of Receipts. The Registrar shall
promptly register the transfer of this Receipt (and of the ADSs represented
thereby) on the transfer books maintained for such purpose and the Depositary
shall promptly cancel this Receipt and execute new Receipts evidencing the same
aggregate number and type of ADSs as those evidenced by this Receipt when
canceled, shall cause the Registrar to countersign such new Receipts, and shall
promptly Deliver such new Receipts to or upon the order of the person entitled
thereto, if each of the following conditions has been satisfied: (i) this
Receipt has been duly Delivered by the Holder (or by a duly authorized attorney
of the Holder) to the Depositary at its Principal Office for the purpose of
effecting a transfer thereof, (ii) this Receipt has been properly endorsed or is
accompanied by proper instruments of transfer (including signature guarantees in
accordance with standard securities industry practice), (iii) this Receipt has
been duly stamped (if required by the laws of the State of New York or of the

expenses incurred by, the Depositary and all applicable taxes and governmental
charges (as are set forth in Section 5.9 of, and Exhibit B to, the Deposit
Agreement) have been paid, subject, however, in each case, to the terms and
conditions of this Receipt, of the Deposit Agreement and of applicable law, in
each case as in effect at the time thereof.

     The Registrar shall register the split-up or combination of this Receipt
(and of the ADSs represented hereby) on the books maintained for such purpose
and the Depositary shall cancel this Receipt and execute new Receipts for the
number of ADSs requested, but in the aggregate not exceeding the number of the
same type of ADSs evidenced by this Receipt (when canceled), shall cause the
Registrar to countersign such new Receipts, and shall Deliver such new Receipts
to or upon the order of the Holder thereof, if each of the following conditions
has been satisfied: (i) this Receipt has been duly Delivered by the Holder (or
by a duly authorized attorney of the Holder) to the Depositary at its Principal
Office for the purpose of effecting a split-up or combination hereof, and (ii)

forth in Section 5.9 of, and Exhibit B to, the Deposit Agreement) have been
paid, subject, however, in each case, to the terms and conditions of this
Receipt, of the Deposit Agreement and of applicable law, in each case as in
effect at the time thereof.

     (4) Pre-Conditions to Registration, Transfer, Etc. As a condition precedent
to the execution and delivery, registration of transfer, split-up, combination
or surrender of any Receipt, the delivery of any distribution thereon, or the
withdrawal of any Deposited Securities, the Depositary or the Custodian may
require (i) payment from the depositor of Eligible Securities or presenter of
ADSs or of a Receipt of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any tax or other
governmental charges and any stock transfer or registration fee with respect
thereto (including any such tax or charge and fee with respect to Eligible
Securities being deposited or withdrawn) and payment of any applicable fees and
charges of the Depositary as provided in the Deposit Agreement and in this
Receipt, (ii) the production of proof satisfactory to it as to the identity and
genuineness of any signature or any other matters contemplated in the Deposit
Agreement, and (iii) compliance with (A) any laws or governmental regulations
relating to the execution and delivery of Receipts or ADSs or to the withdrawal
of Deposited Securities and (B) such reasonable regulations as the Depositary or
the Company may establish consistent with the provisions of this Receipt and the
Deposit Agreement and applicable law.

     The issuance of ADSs against deposits of Eligible Securities generally or
against deposits of particular Eligible Securities may be suspended, or the
deposit of particular Eligible Securities may be refused, or the registration of
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 Company, the Depositary, a Registrar or
the Eligible Securities Registrar are closed or if any such action is deemed
necessary or advisable by the Depositary or the Company, in good faith, at any
time or from time to time because of any requirement of law, any government or
governmental body or commission or any securities exchange upon which the
Eligible Securities or ADSs are listed, or under any provision of the Deposit
Agreement or this Receipt, or under any provision of, or governing, the
Deposited Securities, or because of a meeting of shareholders of the Company or
for any other reason, subject in all cases to Article (24) hereof.
Notwithstanding any provision of the Deposit Agreement or this Receipt to the
contrary, Holders are entitled to surrender outstanding ADSs to withdraw the
Deposited Securities at any time subject only to (i) Temporary delays caused by
closing the transfer books of the Depositary or the Company or the deposit of
Eligible Securities in connection with voting at a shareholders' meeting or the
payment of dividends, (ii) the payment of fees, taxes and similar charges, (iii)
compliance with any U.S. or foreign laws or governmental regulations relating to
the Receipts or to the withdrawal of the Deposited Securities, and (iv) other
circumstances specifically contemplated by Section I.A.(l) of the General
Instructions to Form F-6 (as such General Instructions may be amended from time
to time).

     (5) Compliance With Information Requests. Notwithstanding any other
provision of the Deposit Agreement or this Receipt, each Holder and Beneficial
Owner of the ADSs

                                      A-6
<PAGE>

represented hereby agrees to comply with requests from the Company pursuant to
applicable U.S. and Republic of China laws or regulations, the rules and
requirements of the TSE, and of any stock exchange on which Eligible Securities
or ADSs are, or will be, registered, traded or listed, or the Articles of
Incorporation of the Company, which are made to provide information, inter alia,
as to the capacity in which such Holder or Beneficial Owner owns ADSs (and
Eligible Securities or Deposited Securities, as the case may be) and regarding
the identity of any other person(s) interested in such ADSs and the nature of
such interest and various other matters, whether or not they are Holders and/or
Beneficial Owners at the time of such request.

     (6) Ownership Restrictions. Notwithstanding any provision of this Receipt
or of the Deposit Agreement, the Company may restrict transfers of the Shares,
Eligible Securities or securities convertible into Shares where the Company
informs the Depositary that such transfer might result in ownership of Shares
exceeding limits imposed by applicable law, the SFC, the TSE or Articles of
Incorporation of the Company. The Company may also restrict, in such manner as
it deems appropriate, transfers of ADSs where such transfer may result in the
total number of Shares, Deposited Securities or securities convertible into
Shares represented by the ADSs owned by a single Holder or Beneficial Owner to
exceed any such limits. The Company may, in its sole discretion but subject to
applicable law, instruct the Depositary to take action with respect to the
ownership interest of any Holder or Beneficial Owner in excess of the limits
set forth in the preceding sentence, including but not limited to, the
imposition of restrictions on the transfer of ADSs, the removal or limitation
of voting rights or the mandatory sale or disposition on behalf of a Holder or
Beneficial Owner of the Deposited Securities represented by the ADSs held by
such Holder or Beneficial Owner in excess of such limitations, if and to the
extent such disposition is permitted by applicable law and the Articles of
Incorporation of the Company.

     (7) Liability of Holder for Taxes and Other Charges. If any tax or other
governmental charge shall become payable by the Depositary or the Custodian with
respect to any Receipt or any Deposited Securities or ADSs, such tax or other
governmental charge shall be payable by the Holders and Beneficial Owners to the
Depositary. The Company, the Custodian and/or Depositary may withhold or deduct
from any distributions made in respect of Deposited Securities and may sell for
the account of a Holder and/or Beneficial Owner any or all of the Deposited
Securities and apply such distributions and sale proceeds in payment of such
taxes (including applicable interest and penalties) or charges, the Holder and
the Beneficial Owner hereof remaining liable for any deficiency. The Custodian
may refuse the deposit of Eligible Securities and the Depositary may refuse to
issue ADSs, to deliver ADRs, register the transfer, split-up or combination of
ADRs and (subject to Article (24) hereof) the withdrawal of Deposited Securities
until payment in full of such tax, charge, penalty or interest is received.
Every Holder and Beneficial Owner agrees to indemnify the Depositary, the
Company, the Custodian, and any of their agents, employees and Affiliates for,
and hold each of them harmless from, any claims with respect to taxes (including
applicable interest and penalties thereon) arising from any tax benefit obtained
for such Holder and/or Beneficial Owner.

     (8) Representations and Warranties of Depositors. Each person depositing
Eligible Securities under the Deposit Agreement shall be deemed thereby to
represent and warrant that (i) such Eligible Securities and the certificates
therefor are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable and
legally obtained by such person, (ii) all preemptive (and similar) rights, if
any, with respect to such Eligible Securities have been validly waived or
exercised, (iii) the person making such deposit is duly authorized so to do,
(iv) the Eligible Securities presented for deposit are free and clear of any
lien, encumbrance, security interest, charge, mortgage or adverse claim and are
not, and the ADSs issuable upon such deposit will not be, Restricted Securities,
and (v) the Eligible Securities presented for deposit have not been stripped of
any rights or entitlements. Such representations and warranties shall survive
the deposit and withdrawal of Eligible Securities, the issuance and cancellation
of ADSs in respect thereof and the transfer of such ADSs.

     If any such representations or warranties are false in any way, the Company
and Depositary shall be authorized, at the cost and expense of the person
depositing Eligible Securities, to take any and all actions necessary to correct
the consequences thereof.

     (9) Filing Proofs, Certificates and Other Information. Any person
presenting Eligible Securities for deposit, and any Holder and any Beneficial
Owner may be required, and every Holder and Beneficial Owner agrees, from time
to time to provide to the Depositary and the Custodian such proof of citizenship
or residence, taxpayer status, payment of all applicable taxes or other
governmental charges, exchange control approval, legal or beneficial ownership
of ADSs and Deposited Securities, compliance with applicable laws and the terms
of the Deposit Agreement and the provisions of, or governing, the Deposited
Securities, to execute such certifications and to make such representations and
warranties, and to provide such other information and documentation (or, in the
case of Eligible Securities in registered form presented for deposit, such
information relating to the registration of Eligible Securities on the books of
the Eligible Securities Registrar) as the Depositary or the Custodian may deem
necessary or proper or as the Company may reasonably require by written request
to the Depositary consistent with its obligations under the Deposit Agreement
and this Receipt. The Depositary and the Registrar, as applicable, may, and at
the reasonable written request of the Company shall, withhold the execution or
delivery or registration of transfer of any Receipt or the distribution or sale
of any dividend or other distribution of rights or of the proceeds thereof or,
to the extent not limited by Article (24) hereof, the delivery of any Deposited
Securities, or may refuse to adjust its records, until such proof or other
information is filed or such certificates are executed, or such representations
are made or such information and documentation are provided, in each case to the
Depositary's, the Registrar's and the Company's satisfaction.

     (10) Charges of Depositary. The Depositary shall charge the following fees
for the services performed under the terms of the Deposit Agreement:

          (i)  to any person to whom ADSs are issued upon the deposit of

               (excluding issuances pursuant to paragraphs (iii) and (iv)
               below);

         (ii)  to any person surrendering ADSs for cancellation and withdrawal
               of Deposited Securities, a fee not in excess of U.S. $ 5.00 per

         (iii) to any Holder of ADRs, a fee not in excess of U.S. $ 2.00 per
               100 ADSs (or portion thereof) held for the distribution of cash
               proceeds (i.e., upon the sale of unexercised rights and other
               entitlements); no fee shall be payable for the distribution of
               cash dividends or the distribution of Eligible Securities
               pursuant to stock dividends or other free distributions of
               Eligible Securities as long as such fees are prohibited by the
               exchange upon which the ADSs are listed; and

         (iv)  to any Holder of ADRs, a fee not in excess of U.S. $ 5.00 per
               100 ADSs (or portion thereof) issued pursuant to stock dividends
               or other free stock distributions or upon the exercise of rights.

     In addition, Holders, Beneficial Owners, person depositing Eligible
Securities for deposit and persons surrendering ADSs for cancellation and
withdrawal of Deposited Securities will be required to pay the following
charges:

         (i)   taxes (including applicable interest and penalties) and other
               governmental charges;

         (ii)  such registration fees as may from time to time be in effect for
               the registration of Deposited Securities on the share register
               and applicable to transfers of Deposited Securities to or from
               the name of the Custodian, the Depositary or any nominees upon
               the making of deposits and withdrawals, respectively;

         (iii) such cable, telex and facsimile transmission and delivery
               expenses as are expressly provided in the Deposit Agreement to be
               at the expense of the person depositing or withdrawing Deposited
               Securities or Holders and Beneficial Owners of ADSs;

         (iv)  the expenses and charges incurred by the Depositary in the
               conversion of foreign currency;

         (v)   such fees and expenses as are incurred by the Depositary in
               connection with compliance with exchange control regulations and

                                      A-9
<PAGE>

               requirements applicable to Eligible Securities, Deposited
               Securities, ADSs and ADRs; and

          (vi) the fees and expenses incurred by the Depositary in connection
               with the delivery of Deposited Securities.

     Any other charges and expenses of the Depositary under the Deposit
Agreement will be paid by the Company upon agreement between the Depositary and
the Company. All fees and charges may, at any time and from time to time, be
changed by agreement between the Depositary and Company but, in the case of fees
and charges payable by Holders or Beneficial Owners, only in the manner
contemplated by Article (22) of this Receipt. The Depositary will provide,
without charge, a copy of its latest fee schedule to anyone upon request. The
charges and expenses of the Custodian are for the sole account of the
Depositary.

     (11) Title to Receipts. It is a condition of this Receipt, and every
successive Holder of this Receipt by accepting or holding the same consents and
agrees, that title to this Receipt (and to each ADS evidenced hereby) shall be
transferable upon the same terms as a certificated security under the laws of
the State of New York, provided that the Receipt has been properly endorsed or
is accompanied by proper instruments of transfer. Notwithstanding any notice to
the contrary, the Depositary and the Company may deem and treat the Holder of
this Receipt (that is, the person in whose name this Receipt is registered on
the books of the Depositary) as the absolute owner thereof for all purposes.
Neither the Depositary nor the Company shall have any obligation nor be subject
to any liability under the Deposit Agreement or this Receipt to any holder of
this Receipt or any Beneficial Owner unless such holder is the Holder of this
Receipt registered on the books of the Depositary or, in the case of a
Beneficial Owner, such Beneficial Owner or the Beneficial Owner's representative
is the Holder registered on the books of the Depositary.

     (12) Validity of Receipt. This Receipt (and the ADSs represented hereby)

Receipt has been (i) dated, (ii) signed by the manual or facsimile signature of
a duly authorized signatory of the Depositary, (iii) countersigned by the manual
or facsimile signature of a duly authorized signatory of the Registrar, and (iv)
registered in the books maintained by the Registrar for the registration of
issuances and transfers of Receipts. Receipts bearing the facsimile signature of
a duly-authorized signatory of the Depositary or the Registrar, who at the
time of signature was a duly authorized signatory of the Depositary or the
Registrar, as the case may be, shall bind the Depositary, notwithstanding the
fact that such signatory has ceased to be so authorized prior to the delivery of
such Receipt by the Depositary.

     (13) Available Information; Reports; Inspection of Transfer Books. The
Company is subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act
and accordingly files certain information with the Commission. These reports and
documents can be inspected and copied at the public reference facilities
maintained by the Commission located at Judiciary Plaza, 450 Fifth

                                      A-10

Depositary shall make available for inspection by Holders at its Principal
Office any reports and communications, including any proxy soliciting
materials, received from the Company which are both (a) received by the
Depositary, the Custodian, or the nominee of either of them as the holder of the
Deposited Securities and (b) made generally available to the holders of such

     The Registrar shall keep books for the registration of issuances and
transfers of Receipts which at all reasonable times shall be open for inspection
by the Company and by the Holders of such Receipts, provided that such
inspection shall not be, to the Registrar's knowledge, for the purpose of
communicating with Holders of such Receipts in the interest of a business or
object other than the business of the Company or other than a matter related to
the Deposit Agreement or the Receipts.

     The Registrar may close the transfer books with respect to the Receipts, at
any time or from time to time, when deemed necessary or advisable by it in good
faith in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder, or at the
reasonable written request of the Company subject, in all cases, to Article (24)
hereof.

                          [FORM OF REVERSE OF RECEIPT]

                    SUMMARY OF CERTAIN ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS

                            OF THE DEPOSIT AGREEMENT

     (14) Dividends and Distributions in Cash, Eligible Securities, etc. Subject
always to the laws and regulations of the Republic of China, whenever the
Depositary receives confirmation from the Custodian of receipt of any cash
dividend or other cash distribution on any Deposited Securities, or receives
proceeds from the sale of any Deposited Securities, rights securities or any
entitlements held in respect of Deposited Securities under the Deposit
Agreement, the Depositary will (i) if at the time of receipt thereof any amounts
received in a Foreign Currency can, in the judgment of the Depositary (upon the
terms of the Deposit Agreement), be converted on a practicable basis into
Dollars transferable to the United States, promptly convert or cause to be
converted such cash dividend, distribution or proceeds into Dollars (upon the
terms of the Deposit Agreement), (ii) if applicable, establish the ADS Record
Date upon the terms described in Article (16) hereof and in Section 4.9 of the
Deposit Agreement, and (iii) will distribute promptly the amount thus received
(net of (a) applicable fees and charges of, and reasonable expenses incurred by,
the Depositary and (b) taxes withheld) to the Holders entitled thereto as of
the ADS Record Date (if applicable) in proportion to the number of ADS
representing such Deposited Securities held as of the ADS Record Date (if
applicable). The Depositary shall distribute only such amount, however, as can
be distributed without attributing to any Holder a fraction of one cent, and any
balance not so distributed shall be held by the Depositary (without liability
for interest thereon) and shall be added to and become part of the next sum
received by the Depositary for distribution to Holders of ADSs then outstanding
at the time of the next distribution. If the Company, the Custodian or the
Depositary is required to withhold and does withhold from any cash dividend or
other cash distribution in respect of any Deposited Securities an amount on
account of taxes, duties or other governmental charges, the amount distributed
to Holders on the ADSs representing such Deposited Securities shall be reduced
accordingly. Such withheld amounts shall be forwarded by the Company to the
relevant governmental authority.

     If any distribution upon any Deposited Securities consists of a dividend
in, or free distribution of, Eligible Securities, the Company shall or cause
such Eligible Securities to be deposited with the Custodian and registered, as
the case may be, in the name of the Depositary, the Custodian or their
respective nominees. Upon receipt of confirmation of such deposit from the
Custodian, the Depositary shall, subject to and in accordance with the Deposit
Agreement and the laws and regulations of the Republic of China, establish the
ADS Record Date and either (i) the Depositary shall distribute to the Holders as
of the ADS Record Date in proportion to the number of ADSs held as of the ADS
Record Date, additional ADSs (or the applicable series), which represent in
aggregate the number of Eligible Securities received as such dividend, or free
distribution, subject, however, in each case, to the terms of the Deposit
Agreement (including, without limitation, the limitations set forth on the face
of this Receipt and in Article II of the

                                      A-12
<PAGE>

Deposit Agreement and (a) the applicable fees and charges of, and reasonable
expenses incurred by, the Depositary and (b) taxes), or (ii) if additional ADSs
are not so distributed, each ADS issued and outstanding after the ADS Record
Date shall, to the extent permissible by law, thenceforth also represent rights
and interest in the additional integral number of Eligible Securities
distributed upon the Deposited Securities represented thereby (subject, however,
in each case, to the laws and regulations of the Republic of China and net (a)
of the applicable fees and charges of, and the reasonable expenses incurred by,
the Depositary, and (b) taxes). In lieu of delivering fractional ADSs, the
Depositary shall sell the number of Eligible Securities or ADSs, as the case may
be, represented by the aggregate of such fractions and distribute the net
proceeds upon the terms set forth in the Deposit Agreement.

     In the event that (x) the Depositary determines that any distribution in
property (including Eligible Securities) is subject to any tax or other
governmental charges which the Depositary is obligated to withhold, or (y) if
the Company in the fulfillment of its obligations under the Deposit Agreement,
has furnished an opinion of U.S. counsel determining that Eligible Securities
must be registered under the Securities Act or other laws in order to be
distributed to Holders (and no such registration statement has been declared
effective) or (2) the deposit of Eligible Securities is not permitted under the
laws or regulations of the Republic of China, the Depositary may dispose of all
or a portion of such property (including Eligible Securities and rights to
subscribe therefor) in such amounts and in such manner, including by public or
private sale, as the Depositary deems necessary and practicable and the
Depositary shall distribute the net proceeds of any such sale (after deduction
of (a) taxes and fees and (b) charges of, and reasonable expenses incurred by,
the Depositary) to Holders entitled thereto upon the terms of the Deposit
Agreement. The Depositary shall hold and/or distribute any unsold balance of
such property in accordance with the provisions of the Deposit Agreement.

     Upon timely receipt of a notice indicating that the Company wishes an
elective distribution to be made available to Holders upon the terms described
in the Deposit Agreement, the Company and the Depositary shall determine whether
such distribution is lawful and reasonably practicable. If so, the Depositary
shall, subject to the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement, establish
an ADS record date according to Article (16) hereof and establish procedures to
enable the Holder hereof to elect to receive the proposed distribution in cash
or in additional ADSs. If a Holder elects to receive the distribution in cash,
the dividend shall be distributed as in the case of a distribution in cash. If
the Holder hereof elects to receive the distribution in additional ADSs, the
distribution shall be distributed as in the case of a distribution in Eligible
Securities. If such elective distribution is not lawful or not reasonably
practicable, the Depositary shall, to the extent permitted by law, distribute to
Holders, on the basis of the same determination as is made in the Republic of
China in respect of the Deposited Securities for which no election is made,
either (x) cash or (y) additional ADSs representing such additional Eligible
Securities, in each case, upon the terms described in the Deposit Agreement.
Nothing herein or in the Deposit Agreement shall obligate the Depositary to make
available to the Holder hereof a method to receive the elective distribution in
Eligible Securities (rather than ADSs). There can be

                                      A-13
<PAGE>

no assurance that the Holder hereof will be given the opportunity to receive
elective distributions on the same terms and conditions as the holders of
Deposited Securities.

     Upon timely receipt by the Depositary of a notice indicating that the
Company wishes rights to subscribe for additional Eligible Securities to be made
available to Holders of ADSs, the Depositary upon consultation with the
Company, shall determine, whether it is lawful and reasonably practicable to
make such rights available to the Holders. The Depositary shall make such rights
available to any Holders only if (i) the Company shall have timely requested
that such rights be made available to Holders, (ii) the Depositary shall have
received the documentation contemplated in the Deposit Agreement, and (iii) the
Depositary shall have determined that such distribution of rights is reasonably
practicable. If such conditions are not satisfied, the Depositary shall sell the
rights as described below. In the event all conditions set forth above are
satisfied, the Depositary shall establish an ADS Record Date (upon the terms
described in the Deposit Agreement) and establish procedures (x) to distribute
rights to purchase additional ADSs (by means of warrants or otherwise), (y) to
enable the Holders to exercise the rights (upon payment of the subscription
price and of the applicable (a) fees and charges of, and reasonable expenses
incurred by, the Depositary and (b) taxes), and (z) to deliver ADSs upon the
valid exercise of such rights. Nothing herein or in the Deposit Agreement shall
obligate the Depositary to make available to the Holders a method to exercise
rights to subscribe for Eligible Securities (rather than ADSs). If (i) the
Company does not timely request the Depositary to make the rights available to
Holders or if the Company requests that the rights not be made available to
Holders, (ii) the Depositary fails to receive the documentation required by the
Deposit Agreement or determines it is not reasonably practicable to make the
rights available to Holders, or (iii) any rights made available are not
exercised and appear to be about to lapse, the Depositary shall determine
whether it is lawful and reasonably practicable to sell such rights, in a
riskless principal capacity, at such place and upon such terms (including public
and private sale) as it may deem proper. The Depositary shall, upon such sale,
convert and distribute proceeds of such sale (net of applicable fees and charges
of, and reasonable expenses incurred by, the Depositary and taxes) upon the
terms hereof and of the Deposit Agreement. If the Depositary is unable to make
any rights available to Holders or to arrange for the sale of the rights upon
the terms described above, the Depositary shall allow such rights to lapse. The
Depositary shall not be responsible for (i) any failure to determine that it may
be lawful or feasible to make such rights available to Holders in general or any
Holders in particular, (ii) any foreign exchange exposure or loss incurred in
connection with such sale or exercise, or (iii) the content of any materials
forwarded to the ADR Holders on behalf of the Company in connection with the
rights distribution.

     Notwithstanding anything herein or in the Deposit Agreement to the
contrary, if registration (under the Securities Act or any other applicable
law) of the rights or the securities to which any rights relate may be required
in order for the Company to offer such rights or such securities to Holders and
to sell the securities represented by such rights, the Depositary will not
distribute such rights to the Holders (i) unless and until a registration
statement under the Securities Act (or other applicable law) covering such
offering is in effect or (ii) unless the Company furnishes the Depositary with
opinions of counsel for the Company in the United States

                                      A-14
<PAGE>

and counsel to the Company in any other applicable country in which rights would
be distributed, in each case satisfactory to the Depositary, to the effect that
the offering and sale of such securities to Holders and Beneficial Owners are
exempt from, or do not require registration under, the provisions of the
Securities Act or any other applicable laws. In the event that the Company, the
Depositary or the Custodian shall be required to withhold and does withhold from
any distribution of property (including rights) an amount on account of taxes or
other governmental charges, the amount distributed to the Holders of ADSs
representing such Deposited Securities shall be reduced accordingly. In the
event that the Depositary determines that any distribution in property
(including Eligible Securities and rights to subscribe therefor) is subject to
any tax or other governmental charges which the Depositary is obligated to
withhold, the Depositary may dispose of all or a portion of such property
(including Eligible Securities and rights to subscribe therefor) in such amounts
and in such manner, including by public or private sale, as the Depositary deems
necessary and practicable to pay any such taxes or charges.

     There can be no assurance that Holders generally, or any Holder in
particular, will be given the opportunity to exercise rights on the same terms
and conditions as the holders of Eligible Securities or to exercise such rights.
Nothing herein or in the Deposit Agreement shall obligate the Company to file
any registration statement in respect of any rights or Eligible Securities or
other securities to be acquired upon the exercise of such rights.

     Upon receipt of a notice indicating that the Company wishes property other
than cash, Eligible Securities or rights to purchase additional Eligible
Securities, to be made to Holders of ADSs, the Depositary shall determine
whether such distribution to Holders is lawful and reasonably practicable. The
Depositary shall not make such distribution unless (i) the Company shall have
requested the Depositary to make such distribution to Holders, (ii) the
Depositary shall have received the documentation contemplated in the Deposit
Agreement, and (iii) the Depositary shall have determined that such distribution
is lawful and reasonably practicable. Upon satisfaction of such conditions, the
Depositary shall distribute the property so received to the Holders of record,
as of the ADS Record Date, in proportion to the number of ADSs held by them
respectively and in such manner as the Depositary may deem practicable for
accomplishing such distribution (i) upon receipt of payment or net of the
applicable fees and charges of, and reasonable expenses incurred by, the
Depositary, and (ii) net of any taxes withheld. The Depositary may dispose of
all or a portion of the property so distributed and deposited, in such amounts
and in such manner (including public or private sale) as the Depositary may deem
practicable or necessary to satisfy any taxes (including applicable interest and
penalties) or other governmental charges applicable to the distribution.

     If the conditions above are not satisfied, the Depositary shall sell or
cause such property to be sold in a public or private sale, at such place or
places and upon such terms as it may deem proper and shall (i) cause the
proceeds of such sale, if any, to be converted into Dollars and (ii) distribute
the proceeds of such conversion received by the Depositary (net of (a)
applicable fees and charges of, and reasonable expenses incurred by, the
Depositary and (b) taxes) to the Holders upon the terms hereof and of the
Deposit Agreement. If the Depositary is unable to sell such

                                      A-15
<PAGE>

property, the Depositary may dispose of such property in any way it deems
reasonably practicable under the circumstances.

     (15) Redemption. Subject always to the laws and regulations of the Republic
of China, upon timely receipt of notice from the Company that it intends to
exercise its right of redemption in respect of any of the Deposited Securities,
and a satisfactory opinion of counsel, and upon determining that such proposed
redemption is practicable, the Depositary shall (to the extent practicable)
deliver to each Holder a notice setting forth the Company's intention to
exercise the redemption rights and any other particulars set forth in the
Company's notice to the Depositary. Upon receipt of confirmation that the
redemption has taken place and that finds representing the redemption price have
been received, the Depositary shall convert, transfer, distribute the proceeds
(net of applicable (a) fees and charges of, and reasonable expenses incurred by,
the Depositary, and (b) taxes), retire ADSs and cancel ADRs upon delivery of
such ADSs by Holders thereof upon the terms of the Deposit Agreement. If less
than all outstanding Deposited Securities are redeemed, the ADSs to be retired
will be selected by lot or on a pro rata basis, as may be determined by the
Depositary. The redemption price per ADS shall be the dollar equivalent of
per-Deposited Security amount received by the Depositary upon the redemption of
the Deposited Securities represented by American Depositary Shares (subject to
the terms of the Deposit Agreement and the applicable fees and charges of and
reasonable expenses incurred by, the Depositary, and taxes) multiplied by the
number of Units or Deposited Securities represented by each ADS redeemed.

     (16) Fixing of ADS Record Date. Whenever the Depositary shall receive
notice of the fixing of a record date by the Company for the determination of
holders of Deposited Securities entitled to receive any distribution (whether in
cash, Eligible Securities, rights or other distribution), or whenever for any
reason the Depositary causes a change in the number of Deposited Securities that
are represented by each ADS, or whenever the Depositary shall receive notice of
any meeting of, or solicitation of consents or proxies of, holders of Deposited
Securities, or whenever the Depositary shall find it necessary or convenient in
connection with the giving of any notice, or any other matter, the Depositary
shall fix a record date ("ADS Record Date") for the determination of the Holders
of Receipts who shall be entitled to receive such distribution, to give
instructions for the exercise of voting rights at any such meeting, or to give
or withhold such consent, or to receive such notice or solicitation or to
otherwise take action, or to exercise the rights of Holders with respect to such
changed number of Deposited Securities represented by each ADS. Subject to
applicable law and the terms and conditions of this Receipt and the Deposit
Agreement, only the Holders of Receipts at the close of business in New York on
such ADS Record Date shall be entitled to receive such distributions, to give
such instructions, to receive such notice or solicitation, or otherwise take
action.

     (17) Voting of Deposited Securities. (a) Voting by Shareholders. The
following is a summary of certain rights of holders of Shares to vote at
shareholders' meetings under ROC Company Law and the Articles of Incorporation
of the Company, in each case, as in effect on the date hereof: (i) a holder of
Shares (including holders of interests in any Certificate of Payment

                                      A-16
<PAGE>

evidencing the irrevocable right to receive Shares) is entitled to one vote for
each Share held, except that the number of votes of a holder of more than 3% of
the total outstanding Shares is discounted by the Company by a factor of 0.1% of
that portion of the Shares held in excess of 3% (e.g., a holder of 10% of the
total outstanding Shares would be permitted to exercise voting rights only with
respect of a 9.93% of such Shares), (ii) the election of directors and
supervisors takes place by means of cumulative voting, and (iii) a shareholder
must, as to all matters subject to a vote of shareholders (other than the
election of directors and supervisors), exercise the voting rights for all
Shares held by such shareholder in the same manner (e.g., a holder of 1,000
Shares cannot split his/her votes but must vote all 1,000 Shares in the same
manner except in the event of cumulative voting for an election of directors and
supervisors). The voting rights attaching to the Deposited Securities must be
exercised by, or on behalf of the Depositary, as representative of the Holders,
collectively in the same manner, including the election of directors and
supervisors. Deposited Securities which have been withdrawn from the ADR
Facilities and timely transferred on the Company's register of shareholders to a
person other than the Depositary may be voted by the registered holder(s)
thereof directly, subject, in each case, to the limitations of ROC law and the
Articles of Incorporation of the Company. Holders may not receive sufficient
advance notice of shareholders' meetings to enable them to timely withdraw the
Deposited Securities and vote at such meetings and may not be able to re-deposit
the withdrawn securities under the terms of the Deposit Agreement.

         (b) Voting by ADS Holder. Holders of ADSs have no individual voting
rights with respect to the Deposited Securities represented by their ADSs. Each
Holder shall be deemed, by acceptance of ADSs or acquisition of any beneficial
interest therein, to have authorized and directed the Depositary, without
liability, to appoint the Chairman of the Company (or his/her designate), as
representative of the Depositary, the Custodian or the nominee who is registered
in the ROC as representative of the Holders in respect of the Deposited
Securities (the "Registered Holder"), to vote the Deposited Securities in
accordance with the terms hereof.

         The Company agrees to timely notify the Depositary of any proposed
shareholders' meeting and to timely provide to the Depositary in New York
sufficient copies as the Depositary may reasonably request of English language
translations of the Company's notice of shareholders' meeting and the agenda of
the materials to be voted on (in the form the Company generally makes available
to holders of Eligible Securities in the ROC), including, without limitation, a
list of candidates proposed by the Company for an election of directors or
supervisors (such materials collectively, the "Shareholder Notice"). As soon as
practicable after receipt by the Depositary of the requisite number of
Shareholder Notices, the Depositary shall establish the ADS Record Date (upon
the terms of Article (16) hereof and Section 4.9 of the Deposit Agreement) and
shall, at the Company's expense and provided no U.S. legal prohibitions exist,
deliver to Holders as of the applicable ADS Record Date, (i) the Shareholder
Notice, (ii) a depositary notice setting forth the manner in which Holders of
ADSs may instruct the Depositary to cause the Deposited Securities represented
by their ADSs to be voted under the terms of this Deposit Agreement including, a
description of the Management Proxy (as defined below), together with a form of
voting instructions and/or other means to provide voting instructions (the
depositary notice and the

                                      A-17
<PAGE>

related materials prepared by the Depositary collectively, the "Depositary
Notice"). The Depositary is under no obligation to mail the Shareholder Notice
and the Depositary Notice to Holders if the Company has failed to provide to the
Depositary in New York the requisite number of Shareholder Notices at least 24
calendar days prior to the date of any shareholders' meeting. If the Depositary
has not delivered the Shareholder Notice or Depositary Notice to Holders, it
will endeavor to cause all Deposited Securities represented by ADRs to be
present at the relevant Shareholders' meeting insofar as practicable and
permitted under applicable law but will not cause the Deposited Securities to be
voted; provided, however, that the Depositary may determine, at its sole
discretion, to send such Shareholder Notice and Depositary Notice to Holders
and/or cause the Deposited Securities to be voted as it deems appropriate. There
can be no assurance that Holders generally or any Holder in particular will
receive Shareholder Notices and Depositary Notices with sufficient time to
enable the return of voting instructions to the Depositary in a timely manner.

         Notwithstanding anything else contained in the Deposit Agreement, the
Depositary shall not have any obligation to take any action with respect to any
meeting, or solicitation of consents or proxies, of holders of Deposited
Securities if the taking of such action would violate U.S. laws.

         (c) Voting of Deposited Securities Upon ADS Holders' Instructions. If
Holders of ADSs together holding at least 51% of all the ADSs (including
Temporary ADSs) outstanding as of the relevant ADS Record Date shall instruct
the Depositary, prior to the date established for such purpose by the
Depositary, to vote in the same manner in respect of one or more resolutions to
be proposed at a shareholders' meeting (including resolutions for the election
of directors and/or supervisors), the Depositary shall notify to the Chairman of
the Company (or his/her designate) and appoint the Chairman of the Company (or
his/her designate) as the representative of the Depositary and the Registered
Holders to attend such shareholders' meeting and vote all Deposited Securities
evidenced by ADSs then outstanding (including Temporary ADSs) in the manner so
instructed by such Holders. If voting instructions are received by the
Depositary on or before the date established by the Depositary for the receipt
of such instructions from any Holder as of the ADS Record Date, which are signed
but without further indication as to voting instructions, the Depositary shall
deem such Holder to have instructed a vote in favor of the items set forth in
such instructions. The Depositary and Custodian shall not have any obligation
to monitor, and shall not incur any liability for, the actions, or the failure
to act, of the Chairman of the Company (or his/her designate) as representative
of the Registered Holder.

         (d) Management Proxy. If, for any reason (other than a failure by the
Company to supply the requisite number of Shareholder Notices to the Depositary
within the requisite time period provided in the Deposit Agreement, the
Depositary has not, prior to the date established for such purpose by the
Depositary received instructions from Holders together holding at least 51% of
all ADSs (including Temporary ADSs) outstanding at the relevant ADS Record Date,
to vote in the same manner in respect of any resolution (including resolutions
for the election of directors and/or supervisors), then subject to the following
paragraph, the Holders shall be deemed to have authorized and directed the
Depositary to give a discretionary proxy (a

                                      A-18
<PAGE>

"Management Proxy") to the Chairman of the Company (or his/her designate) as the
representative of the Registered Holder to attend and vote at such meeting all
the Deposited Securities represented by ADSs then outstanding (including
Temporary ADSs) in his or her discretion. In such circumstances, the Chairman of
the Company (or his or her designate) shall be free to exercise the votes
attaching to the Deposited Securities in any manner he or she wishes, which may
not be in the interests of the Holders.

         The Depositary's grant of a Management Proxy in the manner and
circumstances described in the preceding paragraph shall be subject to the
receipt by the Depositary prior to each shareholders' meeting of an opinion of
ROC counsel addressed to, and in form and substance satisfactory to, the
Depositary. In the event the Depositary does not receive such opinion, the
Depositary will not grant the Management Proxy but will cause the Deposited
Securities to be present at the shareholders' meeting to the extent practicable
and permitted by applicable law but will not cause the Deposited Securities to
be voted or the Management Proxy to be granted.

         The Depositary shall not, and the Depositary shall ensure that the
Custodian and its nominees do not, vote or attempt to exercise the right to vote
that attaches to the Shares or other Deposited Securities, other than in
accordance with instructions given in accordance with Section 4.10 of the
Deposit Agreement. The Terms Section 4.10 of the Deposit Agreement may be
amended from time to time in accordance with the terms of this Deposit
Agreement. By continuing to hold ADSs after the effective time of such amendment
all Holders and Beneficial Owners shall be deemed to have agreed to the terms of
the Deposit Agreement as so amended.

     (18) Changes Affecting Deposited Securities. Upon any change in nominal or
par value, split-up, cancellation 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 the Custodian in
exchange for, or in conversion of or replacement of or otherwise in respect of,
such Deposited Securities shall, to the extent permitted by law, be treated as
new Deposited Securities under the Deposit Agreement, and the Receipts shall,
subject to the provisions of the Deposit Agreement and applicable law, evidence
ADSs representing the right to receive such additional securities. The
Depositary may, with the Company's approval, and shall, if the Company shall so
request, subject to the terms of the Deposit Agreement and receipt of
satisfactory documentation contemplated by the Deposit Agreement, execute and
deliver additional Receipts as in the case of a dividend in Eligible Securities,
or call for the surrender of outstanding Receipts to be exchanged for new
Receipts, in either case, as well as in the event of newly deposited Eligible
Securities, with necessary modifications to the form of Receipt contained
herein, specifically describing such new Deposited Securities or corporate
change. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any security so
received may not be lawfully distributed to some or all Holders, the Depositary
may, with the Company's approval, and shall if the Company requests, subject to
receipt of satisfactory legal documentation contemplated in the Deposit
Agreement, sell such securities at public or private sale, at such place or
places and upon such terms as it may deem proper and may allocate the net
proceeds of such sales (net of (a) fees and charges of, and reasonable expenses

                                      A-19
<PAGE>

incurred by, the Depositary and (b) taxes) for the account of the Holders
otherwise entitled to such securities and distribute the net proceeds so
allocated to the extent practicable as in the case of a distribution received in
cash pursuant to the Deposit Agreement. The Depositary shall not be responsible
for (i) any failure to determine that it may be lawful or feasible to make such
securities available to Holders in general or any Holder in particular, (ii) any
foreign exchange exposure or loss incurred in connection with such sale, or
(iii) any liability to the purchaser of such securities.

     (19) Exoneration. Neither the Depositary nor the Company shall be obligated
to do or perform any act which is inconsistent with the provisions of the
Deposit Agreement or incur any liability (i) if the Depositary or the Company
shall be prevented or forbidden from, or subjected to any civil or criminal
penalty or restraint on account of, or delayed in, doing or performing any act
or thing required by the terms of the Deposit Agreement and this Receipt, by
reason of any provision of any present or future law or regulation of the United
States, the Republic of China or any other country, or of any other governmental
authority or regulatory authority or stock exchange, or by reason of any
provision, present or future of the Articles of Incorporation of the Company or
any provision of or governing any Deposited Securities, or by reason of any act
of God or war or other circumstances beyond its control (including, without
limitation, nationalization, expropriation, currency restrictions, work
stoppage, strikes, civil unrest, failure to exercise, any discretion provided
for in this Deposit Agreement or in the Articles of Incorporation of the Company
or provisions of or governing Deposited Securities, (iii) for any action or
inaction in reliance upon the advice of or information from legal counsel,
accountants, any person presenting Eligible Securities for deposit, any Holder,
any Beneficial Owner or authorized representative thereof, or any other person
believed by it in good faith to be competent to give such advice or information,
(iv) for any inability by a Holder or Beneficial Owner to benefit from any
distribution, offering, right or other benefit which is made available to
holders of Deposited Securities but is not, under the terms of this Deposit
Agreement, made available to Holders of ADS or (v) for any consequential or
punitive damages for any breach of the terms of this Deposit Agreement. The
Depositary, its controlling persons, its agents, any Custodian and the Company,
its controlling persons and its agents may rely and shall be protected in acting
upon any written notice, request or other document believed by it to be genuine
and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. No
disclaimer of liability under the Securities Act is intended by any provision of
the Deposit Agreement or this Receipt.

     (20) Standard of Care. The Company and its agents assume no obligation and
shall not be subject to any liability under this Deposit Agreement or the
Receipts to Holders or Beneficial Owners or other persons, except that the
Company and its agents agree to perform their obligations specifically set forth
in this Deposit Agreement without negligence or bad faith. The Depositary and
its agents assume no obligation and shall not be subject to any liability under
this Deposit Agreement or the Receipts to Holders or Beneficial Owners or other
persons, except that the Depositary and its agents agree to perform their
obligations specifically set forth in this Deposit Agreement without negligence
or bad faith. The Depositary and the Company undertake to perform such duties
and only such duties as are specifically set forth in the Deposit Agreement,

                                      A-20
<PAGE>

and no implied covenants and obligations should be read into the Deposit
Agreement or this Receipt against the Depositary or the Company or their
respective agents. The Depositary and its agents shall not be liable for any
failure to carry out any instructions to vote any of the Deposited Securities,
or for the manner in which any vote is cast or the effect of any vote, provided
that any such action or omission is in good faith and in accordance with the
terms of this Deposit Agreement. The Depositary shall not incur any liability
for any failure to determine that any distribution or action may be lawful or
reasonably practicable, for the content of any information submitted to it by
the Company for distribution to the Holders or for any inaccuracy of any
translation thereof, for any investment risk associated with acquiring an
interest in the Deposited Securities, for the validity or worth of the Deposited
Securities or for any tax consequences that may result from the ownership of
ADSs, Shares or Deposited Securities, for the credit-worthiness of any third
party, for allowing any rights to lapse upon the terms of this Deposit
Agreement, for the failure or timeliness of any notice from the Company or for
the failure of the Company to exchange any Certificate of Payment into Shares.
The Depositary shall not be obligated in any way to monitor or enforce the
obligations of the Company, including, without limitation, in respect of any
Certificate of Payment, the conversion of such Certificate of Payment into
Shares.

     (21) Resignation and Removal of the Depositary; Appointment of Successor
Depositary. The Depositary may at any time resign as Depositary under the
Deposit Agreement by written notice of resignation delivered to the Company,
such resignation to be effective on the earlier of (i) the 60th day after
delivery thereof to the Company, or (ii) 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 written
notice of such removal which notice shall be effective on the earlier of (i) the
60th day after delivery thereof to the Depositary, or (ii) upon the appointment
of a successor depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as provided in
the Deposit Agreement. In case at any time the Depositary acting hereunder shall
resign or be removed, the Company shall use its best efforts to appoint a
successor depositary, which shall be a bank or trust company having an office in
the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. Every successor depositary shall
execute and deliver to its immediate predecessor and to the Company an
instrument in writing accepting its appointment hereunder, and thereupon such
successor depositary, without any further act or deed (except as required by
applicable law), shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties
and obligations of its immediate predecessor. The immediate predecessor
depositary, upon payment of all sums due it and on the written request of the
Company, shall (i) execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such
successor all rights and powers of such predecessor hereunder (other than as
contemplated in the Deposit Agreement), (ii) duly assign, transfer and deliver
all right, title and interest to the Deposited Securities to such successor, and
(iii) deliver to such successor a list of the Holders of all outstanding
Receipts and such other information relating to Receipts and Holders thereof as
the successor may reasonably request. Any such successor depositary shall
promptly mail notice of its appointment to such Holders. Any corporation into or
with which the Depositary may be merged or consolidated shall be the successor
of the Depositary without the execution or filing of any document or any further
act.

     (22) Amendment/Supplement. This Receipt and any provisions of the Deposit
Agreement may at any time and from time to time be amended or supplemented by
written agreement between the Company and the Depositary in any respect which
they may deem necessary or desirable without the prior written consent of the
Holders or Beneficial Owners. Any amendment or supplement which shall impose or
increase any fees or charges (other than the charges in connection with foreign
exchange control regulations, and taxes and other governmental charges, deliver
and other such expenses), or which shall otherwise materially prejudice any
substantial existing right of Holders or Beneficial Owners, shall not, however,
become effective as to outstanding Receipts until the expiration of 30 days
after notice of such amendment or supplement shall have been given to the
Holders of outstanding Receipts. The parties hereto agree that any amendments or
supplements which (i) are reasonably necessary (as agreed by the Company and the
Depositary) in order for (a) the ADSs to be registered on Form F-6 under the
Securities Act or (b) the ADSs to be traded solely in electronic book-entry form
and (ii) do not in either such case impose or increase any fees or charges to be
borne by Holders, shall be deemed not to materially prejudice any substantial
rights of Holders or Beneficial Owners. Every Holder and Beneficial Owner at the
time any amendment or supplement so becomes effective shall be deemed, by
continuing to hold such ADS(s), to consent and agree to such amendment or
supplement and to be bound by the Deposit Agreement as amended or supplemented
thereby. In no event shall any amendment or supplement impair the right of the
Holder to surrender such Receipt and receive therefor the Deposited Securities
represented thereby, except in order to comply with mandatory provisions of
applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any governmental body should
adopt new laws, rules or regulations which would require amendment or supplement
of the Deposit Agreement to ensure compliance therewith, the Company and the
Depositary may amend or supplement the Deposit Agreement and this Receipt at any
time in accordance with such changed laws, rules or regulations. Such amendment
or supplement to the Deposit Agreement in such circumstances may become
effective before a notice of such amendment or supplement is given to Holders or
within any other period of time as required for compliance with such laws, or
rules or regulations.

     (23) Termination. The Depositary shall, at any time at the written
direction of the Company, terminate the Deposit Agreement by mailing notice of
such termination to the Holders of all Receipts then outstanding at least 30
days prior to the date fixed in such notice for such termination. If 60 days
shall have expired after (i) the Depositary shall have delivered to the Company
a written notice of its election to resign, or (ii) the Company shall have
delivered to the Depositary a written notice of the removal of the Depositary,
and in either case a successor depositary shall not have been appointed and
accepted its appointment as provided in herein and in the Deposit Agreement, the
Depositary may terminate the Deposit Agreement by mailing notice of such
termination to the Holders of all Receipts then outstanding at least 30 days
prior to the date fixed for such termination. On and after the date of
termination of the Deposit Agreement, the Holder will, upon surrender of such
Holders' Receipt(s) at the Principal Office of the Depositary, upon the payment
of the charges of the Depositary for the surrender of ADSs referred to in
Article (10) hereof and in Exhibit B to the Deposit Agreement and subject to the
conditions and restrictions set forth therein and subject always to the
restrictions on withdrawal as may be in

                                      A-22
<PAGE>
effect under the laws and regulations of the Republic of China, and upon 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 such
Receipt. If any Receipts shall remain outstanding after the date of termination
of the Deposit Agreement, the Registrar thereafter shall discontinue the
registration of transfers of Receipts, and the Depositary shall suspend the
distribution of dividends to the Holders 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 as provided in the Deposit
Agreement, and shall continue to deliver Deposited Securities, subject to the
conditions and restrictions set forth in the Deposit Agreement, 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, or charging, as the case may be,
in each case the charges of the Depositary for the surrender of a Receipt, any
expenses for the account of the Holder in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the Deposit Agreement and any applicable taxes or governmental
charges or assessments). At any time after the expiration of six months from the
date of termination of the Deposit Agreement, the Depositary may sell the
Deposited Securities then held hereunder and may thereafter hold uninvested the
net proceeds of any such sale, together with any other cash then held by it
hereunder, in an unsegregated account, without liability for interest for the
pro rata benefit of the Holders whose Receipts have not theretofore been
surrendered, such Holders thereupon becoming general creditors of the Depositary
with respect to such proceeds. After making such sale, the Depositary shall be
discharged from all obligations under the Deposit Agreement with respect to the
Receipts, the Deposited Securities and the ADSs, except to account for such net
proceeds and other cash (after deducting, or charging, as the case may be, in
each case the charges of the Depositary for the surrender of a Receipt, any
expenses for the account of the Holder in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the Deposit Agreement and any applicable taxes or governmental
charges or assessments). Upon the termination of the Deposit Agreement, the
Company shall be discharged from all obligations under the Deposit Agreement
except as set forth in the Deposit Agreement.

     (24) Compliance with U.S. Securities Laws. Notwithstanding any provisions
in this Receipt or the Deposit Agreement to the contrary, the withdrawal or
delivery of Deposited Securities will not be suspended by the Company or the
Depositary except as would be permitted by 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 of 1933.

     (25) Certain Rights of the Depositary; Limitations. Subject to the further
terms and provisions of this Article (25) and Section 5.10 of the Deposit
Agreement, the Depositary, its Affiliates and their agents, on their own behalf,
may own and deal in any class of securities of the Company and its Affiliates
and in ADSs. In its capacity as Depositary, the Depositary shall not lend
Deposited Securities or ADSs; provided, however, that, subject to Republic of
China law and regulations, the Depositary may (i) issue ADSs prior to the
receipt of Eligible Securities pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Deposit Agreement
and (ii) deliver Deposited Securities upon the receipt of

                                      A-23
<PAGE>

ADSs for cancellation upon withdrawal of Deposited Securities pursuant to
Section 2.7 of the Deposit Agreement, including ADSs which were issued under (i)
above but for which Eligible Securities may not have been received (each such
transaction under (i) above, a "Pre-Release Transaction"). The Depositary may
receive ADSs in lieu of Eligible Securities under (i) above. Each such
Pre-Release Transaction will be (a) subject to a written agreement whereby the
person or entity (the "Applicant") to whom ADSs are to be delivered (w)
represents that at the time of the Pre-Release Transaction the Applicant or its
customer owns the Eligible Securities that are to be delivered by the Applicant
under such Pre-Release Transaction, (x) agrees to indicate the Depositary as
owner of such Eligible Securities in its records and to hold such Eligible
Securities in trust for the Depositary until such Eligible Securities or ADSs
are delivered to the Depositary or the Custodian, (y) unconditionally guarantees
to deliver to the Depositary or the Custodian, as applicable, such Eligible
Securities or ADSs, and (z) agrees to any additional restrictions or
requirements that the Depositary deems appropriate, (b) at all times fully
collateralized with cash, United States government securities or such other
collateral as the Depositary deems appropriate, (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
Depositary will normally limit the number of ADSs and Eligible Securities
involved in such Pre-Release Transactions at any one time to thirty percent
(30%) of the ADSs outstanding (without giving effect to ADSs outstanding under
(i) above), provided, however, that the Depositary reserves the tight to change
or disregard such limit from time to time as it deems appropriate.

     The Depositary may also set limits with respect to the number of ADSs and
Eligible Securities involved in Pre-Release Transactions with any one person on
a case by case basis as it deems appropriate. The Depositary may retain for its
own account any compensation received by it in conjunction with the foregoing.
Collateral provided pursuant to (b) above, but not the earnings thereon, shall
be held for the benefit of the Holders (other than the Applicant). Temporary
ADSs and interests in any Certificate of Payment shall not be eligible for
Pre-Release Transactions hereunder.
