2011 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

To Be Held on October 28, 2011

General

We are soliciting proxies on behalf of our board of directors for use at the annual general meeting of shareholders to be held on October 28, 2011 at 10:00 a.m., Beijing time, or at any adjournment or postponement thereof. The annual general meeting of shareholders will be held at our offices located at 15th Floor, Block A, Guoren Building, Keji Central 3rd Road, Hi-Tech Park, Nanshan District, Shenzhen 518057, People’s Republic of China.

This proxy statement is available to shareholders beginning on September 26, 2011 and the form of proxy is first being mailed to shareholders on or about September 26, 2011.

Revocability of Proxies

Any proxy given pursuant to this solicitation may be revoked by the person giving it at any time before its use by delivering a written notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date or, if you hold ordinary shares, by attending the annual general meeting and voting in person. Attendance at the annual general meeting in and of itself does not revoke a prior proxy. A written notice of revocation must be delivered to the attention of Ms. Rong Yu, our Chief Financial Officer and a director, if you hold our ordinary shares, or to Citibank, N.A., if you hold American Depositary Shares, known as ADSs, representing our ordinary shares.

Record Date, Share Ownership and Quorum

Shareholders of record at the close of business on September 19, 2011 are entitled to vote at the annual general meeting. Our ordinary shares underlying ADSs are included for purposes of this determination. As of August 31, 2011, 568,179,750 of our ordinary shares, par value US$0.00002 per share, were issued and outstanding, which included one registered holder of American Depositary Receipts evidencing 16,251,600 ADSs. The presence of at least two ordinary shareholders in person or by proxy representing not less than a majority in nominal value of the total issued ordinary shares will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the annual general meeting. Citibank, N.A., as depositary for the ADSs, will represent all ordinary shares underlying ADSs for the sole purpose of establishing a quorum, if requested by us in writing.

Voting and Solicitation

Each share outstanding on the record date is entitled to one vote. Voting by holders of ordinary shares at the annual general meeting will be by a show of hands unless the chairman of the meeting or any shareholder present in person or by proxy demands that a poll be taken. Holders of ADSs cannot vote at such meeting.

 

1


The costs of soliciting proxies will be borne by our company. Proxies may be solicited by certain of our directors, officers and regular employees, without additional compensation, in person or by telephone or electronic mail. The solicitation materials are available on our company’s website at http://www.grentech.com.cn under the heading “Investor.”

Voting by Holders of Ordinary Shares

When proxies are properly dated, executed and returned by holders of ordinary shares, the shares they represent will be voted at the annual general meeting in accordance with the instructions of the shareholder. If no specific instructions are given by such holders, the shares will be voted “FOR” proposals 1 and 2 and in the proxy holder’s discretion as to other matters that may properly come before the annual general meeting. Abstentions by holders of ordinary shares are included in the determination of the number of shares present and voting but are not counted as votes for or against a proposal. Broker non-votes will not be counted towards a quorum or for any purpose in determining whether the proposal is approved.

Voting by Holders of American Depositary Shares

Citibank, N.A., as depositary of the ADSs, has advised us that it intends to mail to all owners of ADSs this proxy statement, the accompanying notice of annual general meeting of shareholders and an ADR Voting Instruction Card. Upon the delivery of a signed and completed ADR Voting Instruction Card as instructed therein, Citibank, N.A. will endeavor, to the extent practicable, to vote or cause to be voted the amount of shares represented by the ADSs, evidenced by American Depositary Receipts related to those ADSs, in accordance with the instructions set forth in such request, as follows: (a) in the event of voting by show of hands, each shareholder has one vote irrespective of the number of shares held by such person; and (b) in the event of poll voting, each shareholder has an amount of votes equal to the number of shares held as of the applicable record date.

In the event voting takes place by show of hands, Citibank, N.A. will instruct the custodian to vote all ordinary shares on deposit with the custodian in accordance with the voting instructions received from a majority of holders of ADSs who provided voting instructions. In the event voting takes place by poll, the depositary will instruct the custodian to vote the ordinary shares on deposit with the custodian in accordance with the voting instructions received from the holders of ADSs, and ordinary shares on deposit with the custodian for which no timely voting instructions have been received will not be voted (but all ordinary shares on deposit with the custodian will be represented at the meeting for quorum purposes if any timely voting instructions have been received from holders).

Citibank, N.A. has advised us that it will not vote or attempt to exercise the right to vote other than in accordance with those instructions. As the holder of record for all the shares represented by the ADSs, only Citibank, N.A. may vote those shares at the annual general meeting. You should return your properly completed ADR Voting Instruction Card to Citibank, N.A. prior to 10 a.m., New York City Time, on October 21, 2011, which is the last date by which voting instructions may be received by Citibank, N.A.

Citibank, N.A. and its agents are not responsible if they fail to carry out your voting instructions or for the manner in which they carry out your voting instructions. This means that if the ordinary shares underlying your ADSs are not able to be voted at the annual general meeting, there may be nothing you can do.
