N2     During the financial restructuring of Hong Kong Pharmaceutical

       which entitle the holder of the Note to exercise the conversion
       rights attached to the Note and convert into the ordinary shares of
       HKP at the conversion price of HK$0.10 each.  The Creditor also
       entered into an option agreement with Hong Tau Investment Ltd ("Hong
       Tau") (the "Option Agreement") whereby the Creditor has agreed to
       grant to Hong Tau a first right of refusal for the acquisition of any
       conversion shares at HK$0.10 if the Creditor wishes to sell them.
