(1)      Wu Holdings Limited is a British Virgin Islands corporation which is
         71.16% owned by the Qiao Xing Trust and the remaining 28.84% is owned
         by Sino Communications Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of a
         nonaffiliated corporation listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong
         Limited. The Qiao Xing Trust is a Cook Islands trust which was formed
         for the primary benefit of Zhi Jian Wu Li, the youngest son of Rui Lin
         Wu, our chairman. The 6,819,000 shares of common stock owned of record
         and beneficially by Wu Holdings Limited may be deemed to also be
         beneficially owned by Rui Lin Wu (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3
         under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) since he may be
         deemed to have and/or share the power to direct the voting and
         disposition of such shares.

                               BOARD OF DIRECTORS

         Our board of directors has the responsibility for establishing broad
corporate policies and for our overall performance, although it is not involved
in day-to-day operating details. The board meets regularly throughout the year,
including the annual organization meeting following the annual meeting of
shareholders, to review significant developments affecting us and to act upon
matters requiring board approval. It also holds special meetings as required
from time to time when important matters arise requiring board action between
scheduled meetings.

         We have established an audit committee which consists of Rui Lin Wu, Zi
Shu Huang and Liu Rong Yang. Its functions are to:

 o       recommend annually to the board of directors the appointment of our
         independent public accountants;

 o       discuss and review the scope and the fees of the prospective annual
         audit and review the results with the independent public accountants;

 o       review and approve non-audit services of the independent public
         accountants;

 o       review compliance with our existing accounting and financial policies;

 o       review the adequacy of our financial organization; and

 o       review management's procedures and policies relative to the adequacy of
         our internal accounting controls and compliance with federal and state
         laws relating to financial reporting.

         We do not have a nominating committee. The functions customarily
attributable to a nominating committee are performed by our board of directors
as a whole.

         No director attended fewer than 75 percent of the aggregate of the
total number of meetings of the board of directors and the total number of
meetings held by all committees of the board on which he served.

         Each non-employee director is compensated separately for service on the
board and is reimbursed for expenses to attend board meetings.

                              ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

         At the meeting, seven directors are to be elected. Each director will
be elected for a one-year term or until his successor is elected and qualified.

         Shares represented by properly executed proxies will be voted, in the
absence of contrary indication or revocation by the shareholder granting such
proxy, in favor of the election of the persons named below as directors. The
person named as proxy has been designated by management and intends to vote for
the election to the board of directors of the persons named below, each of whom
now serves as a director. If any nominee is unable to serve as a director, the
shares represented by the proxies will be voted, in the absence of contrary
indication, for any substitute nominee that management may designate. We know of
no reason why any nominee would be unable to serve. The information presented
herein with respect to the nominees was obtained in part from the respective
persons, and in part from our records.

THE 1999 STOCK COMPENSATION PLAN

         Effective June 16, 1999, we adopted and approved the 1999 Stock
Compensation Plan. The purpose of the plan is to:

 o       encourage ownership of our common stock by our officers, directors,
         employees and advisors;

 o       provide additional incentive for them to promote our success and our
         business; and

 o       encourage them to remain in our employ by providing them an opportunity
         to benefit from any appreciation of our common stock through the
         issuance of stock options.

         Options constitute either incentive stock options within the meaning of
Section 422 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or
options which constitute nonqualified options at the time of issuance of such
options. The plan provides that incentive stock options and/or nonqualified
stock options may be granted to our officers, directors, employees and advisors
selected by the compensation committee. A total of 2000,000 shares of common
stock are authorized and reserved for issuance during the term of the plan which
expires in June 2009. The compensation committee has the sole authority to
interpret the plan and make all determinations necessary or advisable for
administering the plan. The exercise price for any incentive option must be at
least equal to the fair market value of the shares as of the date of grant. Upon
the exercise of the option, the exercise price must be paid in full either in
cash,



                                      -5-

         Regarding purchases from related parties:

 o       QXTI purchases plastic covers and molding from QXPL with an on going
         basis since October 1995. QXPL has common directors (i.e., Rui Lin Wu
         and Zhi Yang Wu) with QXUT. QXPL is equipped with the latest computer
         software and automatic machineries to provide on time and quality
         services to QXTI. Since QXPL is located next to us, it provides an
         additional convenience for QXTI to closely monitor the progress of
         their work. The purchase price is determined on the open bid basis
         (i.e., only when the price offered by QXPL is not higher than
         third-party's quotation, QXPL's product can be accepted by QXTI);

 o       QXIC purchases the Integrated Circuit ("IC") from overseas suppliers
         for QXTI since 1997. QXIC has a common director (i.e., Zhi Yang Wu)
         with QXUT. QXIC specializes in overseas sourcing of IC and electronic
         components and provides a direct access channel to the world
         electronics market for us with minimal searching cost incurred. If the
         quality of the IC produced by local manufacturers can meet QXTI's
         requirement, QXTI will purchase the IC from local suppliers and stop
         requiring QXIC to purchase for them. The purchase price is also
         determined on the open bid basis;

 o       QXCL started a pilot run on telephone research and assembling, and the
         caller ID displayed telephones newly developed by QXCL were well
         accepted by the market. However, QXCL did not have complete assembling
         line capability nor its own distribution network. QXCL has a common
         director (i.e., Zhi Yang Wu) with QXUT. Since the wholesale price of
         QXCL's products is very close to the manufacturing cost of the similar
         products of QXTI, QXTI purchased all of the semi-finished products from
         QXCL and successfully promoted them to the market with average gross
         profit margin of approximately 30%. In 1999, since QXTI was able to
         produce such telephones by itself, it stopped purchasing telephones
         from QXCL, and QXCL also terminated its pilot run of telephone
         assembling in the beginning of 1999;

 o       QXTI purchases printed circuit boards ("PCB") from RXED with an
         on-going basis since October 1995. RXED has a common director (i.e.,
         Rui Lin Wu) with QXUT and it provides flexibility on supplying
         different type of PCB when QXTI demands. The purchase price is also
         determined on the open bid basis; and

 o       QXTI purchases the custom-made components such as electronic locks and
         mini speakers from BXTC with an on going basis since January 1995. BXTC
         has a common director (i.e., Rui Lin Wu) with QXUT. The purchase price
         is also determined on the open bid basis.

         Regarding amounts due from/to affiliates, the amount due from Rui Lin
Wu, Zhi Yang Wu, Zhi Jian Wu Li and Mei Lian Li represented the balance of cash
advanced, the amount due from Qiao Xing Group Limited and Qiao Xing Investment
Limited represented amount borrowed from QXTI by these companies for working
capital uses, and the amount due from Wu Holdings Limited ("WHL") mainly
represented amount borrowed from QXTI for settlement of WHL's audit fees. The
balances due from the related parties were unsecured, non-interest bearing and
repayable on demand. The amount due to Zhi Yang Wu represented the unpaid
compensations owed to him. The amount due to Qing Li and RXED represented amount
borrowed from these related parties for working capital uses. The amount due to
RXED was unsecured, bore interest at 26% per annum and was without
pre-determined repayment terms. The other balances due to the related parties
were unsecured, non-interest bearing and without pre-determined repayment terms.

         As of December 31, 1999, QXTI had provided corporate guarantee to an
unrelated party who is a friend of Mr. Rui Lin Wu for bank borrowings of
approximately HK$1,200,000 (equivalent to approximately RMB1,279,000 and US
$155,000).

         We believe that the terms of the agreements and transactions referenced
above which involve our officers, directors, principal shareholders or
affiliates were fair, reasonable and consistent with terms that we could have
obtained from unaffiliated third parties.


                         INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

         A representative of Arthur Andersen & Co., Hong Kong will attend the
meeting and will have the opportunity to make a statement if he or she so
desires. This representative will be available to respond to appropriate
shareholder questions at that time.
