                Opportunities, compliance with the Right of First Refusal
                Procedure. Nothing in the foregoing shall restrict the continued
                holding of an interest in HTIL's issued share capital by HWL,
                whether directly or indirectly.

        3.1.2   HTIL shall not solely or jointly or through representation of
                any person, enterprise or company, carry on, engage in or make

                in the relevant matter, and such consent shall be given if the
                relevant Party is engaging in or proposing to engage in Defined
                Businesses which, in the opinion of the relevant directors of
                the other Party, the other Party is prevented from pursuing by
                itself for regulatory, commercial or other reasons, provided
                that the relevant Party engaging in or proposing to engage in
                such Defined Businesses negotiates in good faith the manner in
                which such opportunities may be pursued jointly in order to
                maximise the commercial benefit for both Parties, subject to
                compliance with all applicable regulatory requirements and
                ensuring that any joint participation does not infringe, nor is
                likely to infringe, any anti-trust, fair trading or similar
                legislation in any jurisdiction.

        The Right of First Refusal Procedure shall be as follows:

        3.5.1   The Party required to make the right of first refusal offer (the
                "Offeror") shall serve a notice (the "Notice of Interest") on
                the other Party (the "Offeree") of its intended interest in the
                New Opportunity prior to it having such actual interest.

        3.5.2   The Notice of Interest shall include, or offer to provide
                reasonable access to, in so far as the Offeror is able, such
                information, documents, records and management as is reasonably
                necessary for the Offeree to make an informed assessment of the
                New Opportunity which is the subject of the Notice of Interest.

        3.5.3   If the Offeree is interested in pursuing the New Opportunity, it
                shall serve a notice on the Offeror (the "Counter-Notice")
                within 7 Business Days of receipt of the Notice of Interest
                indicating its interest and the Offeror shall as soon as
                reasonably practicable thereafter provide or procure the
                provision of information pertinent to consideration of the New
                Opportunity to the Offeree (to the extent that such information
                has not been provided pursuant to Clause 3.5.2).

        3.5.4   The Offeror shall use its reasonable endeavours to procure that
                the New Opportunity shall remain available for pursuit by the
                Offeree for at least 45 days from (i) the date all reasonable
                information pertinent to consideration of the New Opportunity
                has been provided to the Offeree pursuant to Clause 3.5.3 or
                (ii) the date of the Counter Notice if all reasonable
                information pertinent to consideration of the New Opportunity
                has been provided prior to the date of the Counter-Notice. The
                Offeror acknowledges that if the New Opportunity is in a market
                in which the Offeree has an existing business and, in the
                opinion of the Offeree, would compete with such existing
                business and, due to such competition the Offeree does not wish
                to pursue such New Opportunity, the Offeree will have to seek
                approval of its board comprising directors in the case of HWL or
                independent non-executive directors in the case of HTIL who do
                not, and are not deemed to, have a material interest in the
                matter for consideration of whether to reject the New
                Opportunity and whether to grant its consent to the Offeror
                pursuing the New Opportunity. The Offeree shall promptly notify
                the Offeror of any decision taken to reject the New Opportunity
                and to grant consent to the Offeror pursuing the New Opportunity
                or of any decision taken to withhold consent to the Offeror
                pursuing the New Opportunity.

        3.5.5   The Offeror shall be deemed to have complied with the Right of
                First Refusal Procedure and shall be free to pursue its interest
                in the New Opportunity if prior to such pursuit:

                (i)     the Offeror has received a Counter-Notice from the
                        Offeree in the form described in Clause 3.5.3 but the
                        Offeree has not taken such reasonable steps as are
                        necessary to pursue the New Opportunity by the end of
                        the 45-day period referred to in Clause 3.5.4;or

                (ii)    the Offeror has received a notice from the Offeree
                        stating that it does not wish to pursue the New
                        Opportunity and consenting to the Offeror pursuing the
                        New Opportunity pursuant to Clause 3.5.4; or

                (iii)   the Offeror has not received any notice from the Offeree
                        concerning the New Opportunity within a period of 45
                        days from serving the Notice of Interest on the Offeree,
                        in which case the Offeree shall be deemed to have given
                        its consent to the Offeror pursuing such New
                        Opportunity.

        3.5.6   Notwithstanding the above, the Parties hereby agree that where
                the New Opportunity must be pursued faster than the time frame
                set out in this Clause 3.5 due to third party limitations, the
                Parties shall agree to such reasonable time frame to achieve and
                complete the Right of First Refusal Procedure to ensure that the
                New Opportunity may be duly pursued.

3.6     COMPETING PORTION OFFER PROCEDURE

        The Competing Portion Offer Procedure shall be as follows:

        3.6.1   The Party required to make the offer (the "Competing Portion
                Offeror") shall serve a notice on the other Party (the
                "Competing Portion Offeree") setting out the offer to purchase
                the Competing Portion (referred to in this Clause 3.6 as the
                "Notice of Offer").

        3.6.2   The Notice of Offer shall include, or offer to provide
                reasonable access to, such information, documents, records and
                management as is reasonably necessary to enable the Competing
                Portion Offeree to make an informed assessment of the Competing
                Portion which is the subject of the Notice of Offer.

        3.6.3   The consideration to be paid by the Competing Portion Offeree
                for the Competing Portion shall be the fair market value of the
                Competing Portion (the "Fair Value") which shall be determined
                in accordance with Schedule 2.

        3.6.4   The Competing Portion Offeree shall serve a notice on the
                Competing Portion Offeror, within 30 Business Days after the
                Fair Value Determination Date indicating either:

                (i)     that the Competing Portion Offeree wishes to acquire the
                        Competing Portion; or

                (ii)    that the Competing Portion Offeree does not wish to
                        acquire the Competing Portion.

        3.6.5   If the Competing Portion Offeree serves a notice described in
                Clause 3.6.4 (i), the Competing Portion Offeror and the
                Competing Portion Offeree shall execute such agreements as may
                be reasonably necessary and on such terms as the Parties may
                agree to effect the transfer of the Competing Portion to the
                Offeree, provided

                                        7

<PAGE>

                that the Competing Portion Offeror shall furnish to the
                Competing Portion Offeree, such representations, warranties and
                undertakings as have been provided to the Competing Portion
                Offeror in its acquisition of the relevant Competing Entity in
                so far as they are referable to the Competing Portion and
                subject to appropriate limitations and disclosures.

        3.6.6   If the Competing Portion Offeree serves a notice of the kind
                described in Clause 3.6.4 (ii) or does not serve any notice of
                the kind described in Clause 3.6.4 within the 30 Business Day
                period referred to in Clause 3.6.4, the Competing Portion Offer
                shall lapse.

3.7     REASONABLENESS OF RESTRICTIONS

        Each Party agrees that the restrictions contained in Clauses 3.1 and 3.2
        are no greater than is reasonable and necessary for the protection of
        their interests but if any such restriction shall be held to be void but
        would be valid if deleted in part or reduced in application, such
        restriction shall apply with such deletion or modification as may be
        necessary to make it valid and enforceable.

3.8     RE-NEGOTIATION OF RESTRICTIONS

        If technological developments in relation to the Defined Businesses or
        changes in the competitive landscape for the Defined Businesses after
        the date of this Agreement are such that the underlying philosophy of
        delineating each Party's respective markets along geographical lines set
        out in this Agreement, when applied in accordance with the terms of this
        Agreement, becomes commercially impractical or unreasonable, either
        Party may by giving notice to the other Party request that this Clause 3
        be re-negotiated. The Parties shall thereafter co-operate with each
        other and undertake such re-negotiation in good faith.

        full benefit of all the provisions of this Agreement.

4.2     WHOLE AGREEMENT

        This Agreement contains the whole agreement between the Parties relating

                                   SCHEDULE 2

                           PRICE OF COMPETING PORTION

1.1     The Fair Value shall be determined in accordance with this Schedule 2.

1.2     In this Schedule,

        "Investment Bank" shall mean any one of the largest five international
        investment banks with a recognised area of expertise of valuing
        companies of the type that carry on the business comprising the
        Competing Portion, as agreed by the Parties, or failing such agreement,
        such international investment bank chosen by the President of the Law
        Society of Hong Kong;

1.3     Determination of Fair Value

        1.3.1   Appointment of expert

                The Fair Value shall be determined by the Investment Bank, which
                shall be jointly appointed by the Parties, in accordance with
                the provisions below or as the Parties may otherwise agree. The
                Investment Bank shall be appointed within 14 Business Days after
                the date on which the Competing Portion Offeror has served the
                Notice of Offer. The fees of the Investment Bank shall be borne
                by the Parties equally.

        1.3.2   Method and adjustments

                The Investment Bank shall determine the Fair Value of the
                Competing Portion on the following assumptions and bases:

                (a)     valuing the sale of the Competing Portion as an arm's
                        length sale between a willing seller and a willing
                        buyer;

                (b)     if the Competing Portion comprises a business carried on
                        as a going concern, the continuing of the Competing
                        Portion as a going concern and assuming that the
                        Competing Portion Offeree would be able to continue to
                        enjoy all rights and benefits accruing to the Competing
                        Portion as at the date immediately prior to the
                        completion of the proposed sale; and

                (c)     valuing the Competing Portion as a rateable proportion
                        of the total value of the Competing Entity without any
                        premium or discount being attached.

        1.3.3   The Investment Bank shall determine the Fair Value to reflect
                any other factors which the Investment Bank reasonably believes
                should be taken into account.

        1.3.4   If any difficulty arises in applying any of these assumptions or
                bases then the Investment Bank shall resolve that difficulty in
                such manner as it shall in its absolute discretion think fit.

1.4     Determination

        1.4.1   The Investment Bank shall be instructed to determine the Fair
                Value within 30 Business Days of its appointment or prior to
                such other date as may be agreed in writing by the Parties and
                shall notify the Parties of its determination in

                                       13

<PAGE>

                accordance with such time-frame (the date of notification being
                the "Fair Value Determination Date").

        1.4.2   The Investment Bank shall act as expert and not as arbitrator
                and its determination shall be final and binding on the Parties
                (in the absence of fraud or manifest error).

        1.4.3   In determining Fair Value pursuant to this Schedule, the
                Competing Portion Offeror shall, subject to any confidentiality
                obligations to which the Competing Portion Offeror is subject,
                grant the Investment Bank access to all accounting records or
                other relevant documents of the Competing Entity and the
                Competing Portion and shall procure that the Competing Entity
                shall instruct its agents, representatives, employees, directors
                and executives to give such assistance to the Investment Bank as
                the Investment Bank reasonably requests in order to determine
                the Fair Value.

        1.4.4   In determining Fair Value pursuant to this Schedule, the Parties
                may make representations to the Investment Bank which the
                Investment Bank may, in its sole discretion, choose to take
                account of, provided that the taking into account of any such
                representations shall not delay the time frame for determining
                Fair Value set out in this Schedule.

                owners and/or licensees of the relevant IPR, shall enter into

                respect of the use of the relevant IPR in connection with their
                telecommunications operations in the relevant territory(ies),
                but only to the extent that (i) such members have rights to
                grant such rights of use to the relevant IPR and (ii) such IPR
                is reasonably required for such Operating Companies to operate
                their telecommunications businesses in the same manner as

                to the Operating Companies shall be granted on a royalty free
                basis, until the relevant change of control provisions agreed
                between the relevant Operating Companies and the relevant
                member(s) of the Retained Group in the Specific Licensing
                Agreements are triggered..

        2.2     For the avoidance of doubt, unless restricted or prohibited in
                accordance with the provisions of the Specific Licensing
                Agreements, the relevant members of the Retained Group may,
                during the term of this Agreement or any Specific Licensing
                Agreement, themselves exercise and/or grant licences to third
                parties to exercise the rights granted or to be granted to the
                relevant Operating Companies under Clause 2.1, provided such
                exercise and/or grant does not affect the relevant Operating
                Companies' rights to use the IPR in accordance with the terms
                and conditions of the Specific Licensing Agreements.

        2.3     The procurement obligation in Clause 2.1 shall not apply to an
                Operating Company, where a Specific Licensing Agreement has been
                entered into with such Operating

                                        2
