the share repurchase program reflects our continued commitment to increase shareholder value and confidence that the current ADS price levels do not reflect our current potential value. In addition to the share repurchase program, we will continue
to execute on our key growth plan of broadening our player base via enhanced community and increased loyalty.&#148; </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>About Giant Interactive Group Inc.
