| - | Quantity of Directors: The board of directors of each Wholly Foreign Owned Enterprises (WFOEs) and Joint Ventures are necessary to appoint among three and 13 directors.

| - | Membership: In an Equity Joint Venture (EJV), board membership must be proportionate to capital contributions. The board have to have a Chairman, but require not have a Vice Chairman.

| - | Meetings: Joint venture board meetings have to be held as soon as a year, and a quorum is 2/3 of the directors. For Equity Joint Ventures, unanimous consent of the board is necessary for amendment of the Articles of Association, increase or reduction of the Registered Capital, merger or division, and termination and dissolution.

| - | Director & Officer Liability: Director and officer liability law and enforcement is not as effectively-developed as in several Western nations. Correspondingly, the market for directors and officers liability insurance coverage is not specifically nicely-developed either. The Chairmans role as the enterprises legal representative encumbers him with each civil and criminal liability for the acts and/or omissions of the enterprise. Directors can be held liable for board resolutions that are illegal or that contravene the Articles of Association and result in losses to the organization. Directors, supervisors and senior management personnel can be held liable if they lead to losses to the enterprise by violating laws and/or the Articles of Association.

| - | Basic Manager: The Common Manager is charged with day-to-day operation and could be a foreign national if the enterprise so chooses. The responsibilities of the General Manager need to be listed in the Articles of Association even if Chinese law does not require the appointment of a Basic Manager (as in the case of WFOEs). The General Manager is charged by law with responsibility for formulating a management technique for the enterprise production, operations and management, employment and termination of employees (except those that need to be employed and dismissed by the board of directors) and implementing board resolutions and investment and organization plans.
