The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at 13/F, Shenzhen Special Zone Press Tower, Shennan Road, Futian, Shenzhen, China 100020. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the same meanings ascribed to such terms in the Original Schedule 13D. Except as specifically amended and supplemented by this 13D Amendment, all provisions of the Original Schedule 13D shall remain in full force and effect.
 
Item 4.

On March 29, 2007, CEF, the Issuer, Safetech, CSST HK, Golden, Cheng Feng, CSST PRC and the Controlling Shareholders (collectively, the “Amendment Parties”) entered into an agreement (the “Amendment”), pursuant to which the Amendment Parties agreed to amend the Investor Rights Agreement by deleting Section 6 thereof. By removing this section from the Investor Rights Agreement, the Amendment removes CEF’s right to designate a Board Observer. A copy of the Amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.7 and incorporated herein by reference.
 
The Reporting Persons plan to enter a transaction or transactions in which it disposes of the Convertible Notes while maintaining the Reporting Persons current equity exposure.

Item 6.
Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer
 
This 13D Amendment amends Item 6 of the Schedule 13D by adding the following paragraphs immediately after the third and fourth paragraphs thereto, respectively:
 
On March 29, 2007, the Issuer, Safetech, CSST HK, Golden (with respect to Section 4.18(a) of the Indenture only), Cheng Feng (with respect to Section 4.18(a) of the Indenture only), CSST PRC (with respect to Section 4.18(a) of the Indenture only) and The Bank of New York, as trustee, entered into a Supplemental Indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture”). The Supplemental Indenture provides for the revision of certain dollar amounts set forth in the second sentence of Section 4.16 of the Indenture. On March 29, 2007, CEF sent The Bank of New York a letter (the “Consent Letter”) evidencing its consent to the execution of the Supplemental Indenture by the parties thereto. A copy of the Supplemental Indenture is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.8 and incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the Consent Letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.9 and incorporated herein by reference.
 
In addition to the terms described in Item 4 hereof, the Amendment to the Investor Rights Agreement entered into by the Amendment Parties also provides for the deletion of Sections 3.6 and 5 to the Investor Rights Agreement. By removing these sections from the Investor Rights Agreement, the Amendment removes (i) CEF’s right to review and provide comments and suggestions on the legal structures contemplated by Potential Acquisitions (as defined in the Investor Rights Agreement), and (ii) CEF’s right of first refusal and tag-along rights for proposed sales by the Controlling Shareholders to any third party. In addition to the terms described in Item 4 and in this Item 6, the Amendment provides for certain other changes to Section 3 of the Investor Rights Agreement, as more fully described in the Amendment attached hereto. As a result of the Amendment, the Reporting Persons could no longer be deemed a group with the Controlling Shareholders, and therefore could no longer be deemed to have shared voting or investment power with respect to, or have beneficial ownership of, any shares of the Issuer’s common stock owned by the Controlling Shareholders.
