1.1 Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting, dated September 19, 2005
1.2 Circular, dated September 19, 2005
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT WITH RESPECT TO FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This document contains certain forward-looking information about
China Eastern Airlines Corporation Limited (the "Company") that are
intended to be covered by the safe harbor for "forward-looking
statements" provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995 and any other similar laws that may apply. Forward-looking
statements are statements that are not historical facts. Words such as
"expect(s)", "feel(s)", "believe(s)", "will", "may", "anticipate(s)" and
similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
These statements include, but are not limited to, financial projections
and estimates and their underlying assumptions; statements regarding
plans, objectives and expectations with respect to future operations,
products and services; and statements regarding future performance. Such
statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, many of which
are difficult to predict and generally beyond the control of the Company,
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed
in, or implied or projected by, the forward-looking information and
statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited
to: those discussed and identified in public filings with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") made by the Company; changes
in regulatory policies (including those relating to airfare pricing) of
the Civil Aviation Administration of China; the effects of competition on
the demand for and the price of the Company's services; changes in global
economic conditions, including the economic development and conditions of
countries served by flights of the Company; changes to the economic or
political condition of China; the cost and availability of aviation fuel;
fluctuations in interests rates between the Renminbi or the Hong Kong
dollar, on the one hand, and the United States dollar or the Japanese
Yen, on the other hand; the Company's ability to obtain adequate
financing on commercially acceptable terms; a downgrade in the Company's
financial strength ratings; significant acquisitions or divestitures by
major competitors and future terrorist activities. Readers are cautioned
not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements because
they speak only as of the date on which they were made. The Company does
not undertake any obligation to republish revised forward-looking
statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of these
forward-looking statements or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated
events. Readers are also urged to carefully review and consider the
various disclosures in the Company's various SEC reports, including, but
not limited to, its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended
December 31, 2004.
