The Statement on Schedule 13D dated November 13, 2002 filed by Goldman Industrial Ltd. ("Goldman") and Coomber Investment Limited ("Coomber") with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on December 16, 2002, as amended by Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 1) filed with the Commission on June 23, 2003 by Goldman, Coomber, Zhong Lin Development Company Limited ("Zhong Lin"), Guangxi Yuchai Machinery State Holding Company ("Guangxi Holding"), Qin Xiaocong, Zhu Guoxin and Yuan Xucheng (collectively, the "Reporting Persons"), Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 2) filed with the Commission by the Reporting Persons on July 9, 2003, Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 3) filed with the Commission by the Reporting Persons on August 5, 2003, Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 4) filed with the Commission by the Reporting Persons on December 23, 2003, and Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 5) filed with the Commission by the Reporting Persons on March 15, 2004 is hereby amended with respect to the items set forth below. Capitalized terms used without definition in this Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 6) have the meanings set forth in the Reporting Persons' Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 1). Item 4. Purpose of Transaction Item 4 is amended by the addition of the following: In their Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 1), the Reporting Persons reported a series of disputes between the Chinese investors in the Company (including the Reporting Persons) and local management of Guangxi Yuchai Machinery Co. Ltd. ("GYMCL"), on the one hand, and Hong Leong Asia, Ltd. ("HLA") and management of the Company, on the other. Thereafter, the Reporting Persons and the Company each reported that in July 2003 GYMCL and CYI had executed an agreement in principle to settle their disputes. The settlement contemplated that the parties would work together to achieve governance arrangements for the Company that would exclude or eliminate the Special Share in the Company beneficially owned by HLA and a possible restructuring of the Company's interest in GYMCL. See Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 3) filed by the Reporting Persons on August 5, 2003 and the Company's Report on Form 6-K filed August 4, 2003. The Reporting Persons are filing this Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 6) to disclose several recent developments relevant to the previously reported disputes and the status of discussion relating to the transactions contemplated by the settlement. I. CYI'S Failure to Conform its Relationship With GYMCL to Chinese Law. -------------------------------------------------------------------- CYI's principal asset is its 76.4% beneficial interest in GYMCL, held through six intermediate holding companies, which are sometimes referred to herein as the "foreign shareholders" of GYMCL. Under the CYI Shareholder Agreement, HLA is the "Controlling Shareholder" of CYI. HLA is also the holder of the CYI Special Share. Pursuant to the terms of the CYI Shareholder Agreement and the Special Share, HLA claims the right to control both CYI and, through CYI, GYMCL. GYMCL is located in China, operates in China, and is incorporated under the laws of China. Chinese law therefore applies to all issues of corporate governance involving GYMCL. The Chinese government has repeatedly advised GYMCL, CYI, and HLA that the rights to control GYMCL claimed by CYI and HLA have never
received the governmental approvals necessary to make them effective in China, and it has directed GYMCL, CYI and HLA to remedy these legal irregularities. CYI and HLA have not complied with these directives of Chinese government authorities. GYMCL, however, as a Chinese company, is obligated to follow Chinese law, and GYMCL may not give effect to the attempts of CYI and HLA to control GYMCL in the absence of the necessary Chinese government approvals. This fundamental dispute is the basis for most of the disagreements as to GYMCL's corporate governance between CYI and HLA, on the one hand, and the Chinese investors in GYMCL and GYMCL's local management, on the other. A. CYI and HLA Have Not Complied with the Instructions of the Chinese ------------------------------------------------------------------ Government Regarding the Ownership and Control of GYMCL. -------------------------------------------------------- In a Form 6-K filed with this Commission on June 26, 2003, CYI disclosed that it had recently received copies of letters from "various government agencies stating that the transfer of ownership of shares with respect to GYMCL in November 1994, in connection with [CYI's IPO], was not validly approved by the Chinese authorities, and that as a result the exercise by GYMCL's foreign shareholders of control over GYMCL has been improper." In the letters in question, the Chinese Government authorities at the central, provincial, and local levels had also directed GYMCL, CYI, and HLA to bring CYI's ownership of, and HLA's asserted right to control, GYMCL into conformity with Chinese law. See Exhibits 19(b) and 19(c) to the Reporting Persons' Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 1). In the June 26, 2003 Form 6-K, CYI stated that, "based on advice from its special Chinese counsel," CYI believed that the communications from the Chinese government reflected an "incorrect understanding" of relevant facts and an "incorrect interpretation" of prior government "approvals." CYI did not attach to the Form 6-K any written "advice from its special Chinese counsel" explaining why that counsel thought the Chinese government's interpretation of its own laws and administrative actions were incorrect. CYI did indicate, however, that it was forwarding its views on the relevant issues of Chinese law to "various Chinese government agencies." To the best of Responding Persons' knowledge, in the 20 months since the filing of the June 26, 2003 Form 6-K, no Chinese government agency has accepted CYI's views. B. CYI Has Been Unable to Substantiate Its Claim that CYI's Majority ----------------------------------------------------------------- Ownership of, and HLA's Rights to Control, GYMCL Have Received the ------------------------------------------------------------------ Government Approvals Required by Chinese Law. --------------------------------------------- Coomber believes that it is CYI's largest shareholder. Coomber has repeatedly invited CYI and HLA to substantiate their claim that CYI's majority ownership of, and HLA's rights to control, GYMCL comport with Chinese law, despite the contrary views of the Chinese government. In extensive correspondence between counsel for CYI and HLA and counsel for the Reporting Persons, CYI and HLA have not identified any action by the Chinese Government that approved CYI's majority ownership of, or HLA's right to control, GYMCL. In
support of their views, CYI and HLA have relied solely on an opinion of local Chinese counsel that they maintain is confidential. At a September 9, 2004 meeting of the Board of Directors of GYMCL, representatives of Coomber invited the local Chinese counsel for CYI and HLA to identify the action of the Chinese government by which that government approved CYI's majority ownership of, and HLA's rights to control, GYMCL. The counsel for CYI and HLA did not do so. C. CYI and HLA Have not Cooperated with the Efforts of the Reporting ----------------------------------------------------------------- Persons to Bring the Corporate Governance Structure of GYMCL into ----------------------------------------------------------------- Conformity with Chinese Law. ---------------------------- The Reporting Persons believe that HLA's exercise of control over GYMCL without proper government approval and contrary to the Chinese government's explicit instructions to GYMCL and CYI is inconsistent with Chinese law and contrary to the interests of CYI shareholders. For these reasons, on September 7, 2004 Coomber requested a special general meeting of CYI to consider, among other issues, the cancellation of the CYI Special Share beneficially owned by HLA and concomitant revisions to CYI's by-laws. Such a meeting was held in Hong Kong on October 11, 2004. The CYI Board of Directors, at the direction and under the control of HLA, invoked various procedural rules to block any consideration of these issues by the Board. D. Failure to Conform to Chinese Law Has Interfered with the Proper ---------------------------------------------------------------- Corporate Governance of GYMCL. ------------------------------ 1. The CYI "Special Share" Impedes Revisions to GYMCL's Articles of Association. On November 5, 2003, the GYMCL board of directors approved new corporate governance guidelines for GYMCL with the support of both HLA and the Chinese shareholders of GYMCL. GYMCL's counsel advised the directors at the time, however, that, as a matter of Chinese law, in order to become effective many of the corporate guidelines would have to be adopted as amendments to GYMCL's Articles of Association and registered with China's Ministry of Commerce. GYMCL's company counsel further advised the directors that the Ministry of Commerce would not register such amendments until (a) CYI had obtained the proper Chinese government approvals for CYI's ownership of GYMCL, and (b) CYI had cancelled the Special Share in CYI. CYI and HLA have not yet complied with these requirements. For this reason, GYMCL has been unable to register and bring into effect the revisions to GYMCL's corporate governance guidelines that have been mutually agreed between HLA and the Chinese investors in GYMCL. 2. HLA's Refusal to Relinquish Its Special Share in CYI Has Frustrated the Proper Convening and Conduct of GYMCL Shareholder and Board Meetings. By letter dated October 29, 2004, Hong Leong Technology Systems (BVI) Limited, an affiliate of HLA and one of the foreign shareholders ("Hong Leong (BVI)"), forwarded to GYMCL a Notice of Interim Shareholders' Meeting requesting
that an Interim Shareholders Meeting of GYMCL be held. Hong Leong (BVI) stated that it was making the request on behalf of all six of the foreign shareholders - the intermediate holding companies through which CYI holds its equity interest in GYMCL. The letter, however, was signed only by Hong Leong (BVI), and the Notice was unsigned. Article 22 (b)(3) of the GYMCL Articles of Association requires that shareholders holding more than one third of the shares call for the convening of an Interim Meeting. GYMCL therefore determined that the Notice was ineffective. Noting, however, that a general meeting of GYMCL's shareholders was overdue, GYMCL announced that a general shareholders' meeting would be held in Guangzhou, China on December 6, 2004. That meeting was duly convened. At that meeting, the GYMCL company secretary noted that the representatives of Earnest Assets Ltd., Cathay Diesel Holdings, Ltd., Tsang & Ong Nominees (BVI) Ltd., Goldman Sachs Guangxi Holding (BVI) Ltd., and Youngstar Holdings Ltd. (the foreign shareholders of GYMCL other than Hong Leong (BVI)),were acting under the direction and control of HLA. Chinese authorities had repeatedly advised GYMCL that such direction could not be given legal effect in China to assert or exercise control over GYMCL. Accordingly, the GYMCL company secretary explained that GYMCL could not, consistent with Chinese law, accept the credentials of these representatives as shareholders of GYMCL, and that the quorum of shares necessary to constitute a meeting under Article 26 of the GYMCL Articles of Association was, accordingly, lacking. GYMCL Chairman Wang Jian Ming therefore postponed the meeting for lack of a quorum in accordance with the requirements of Article 29 of the GYMCL Articles of Association. That same evening, the foreign shareholders of GYMCL served on the management of GYMCL an "Urgent Notice" dated December 6, 2004. In that "Urgent Notice" the foreign shareholders reported that, after the general shareholders' meeting had been postponed, they had purported to hold an "interim shareholders' meeting" and to pass various resolutions at that meeting. The Reporting Persons believe that the "Urgent Notice" itself revealed that this "interim shareholders' meeting" was invalid for each of several reasons: (i) for applicable rules of corporate governance, the foreign shareholders were relying on the provisions of an eight-year-old draft revision of the GYMCL Articles of Association that had never been approved by GYMCL's shareholders or by the Ministry of Commerce; (ii) the foreign shareholders erroneously assumed that the Notice of Interim Shareholders' Meeting dated October 29, 2004 had been properly served on GYMCL by all six of the foreign shareholders and not Hong Leong (BVI) alone, as was, in fact, the case; (iii) GYMCL's Chairman had just postponed a general meeting of the shareholders in accordance with the terms of GYMCL's Articles of Association and there was no authority under the Articles for reconvening that meeting; and, (iv) in any event, the foreign shareholders were acting, with respect to GYMCL, under the direction of HLA, which they had been advised was unlawful in China. By letter dated December 10, 2004, GYMCL called these procedural errors to the attention of each of the foreign shareholders. A copy of this letter has been filed as Exhibit 23 to this Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 6). Neither the foreign shareholders nor their parent corporation CYI have replied to GYMCL's letter of December 10, 2004.
On December 22, 2004, GYMCL announced that the general shareholders' meeting postponed from December 6, 2004 would be convened in Yulin City, Guangxi, China on January 5, 2005. On the evening of January 4, 2005, the flight of GYMCL Chairman Wang Jian Ming to Guangxi was cancelled. Mr. Wang is also the Chairman of Guangxi Holding, one of the Reporting Persons and the holder of an approximately 22% direct equity interest in GYMCL. The GYMCL secretary therefore telephoned representatives of GYMCL shareholders, including representatives of the foreign shareholders of GYMCL, notifying them that the meeting would be delayed from the originally scheduled time of 9:00 AM until 3:00 PM to permit Chairman Wang to arrive. No one objected to this change. On the morning of January 5, 2005, however, the Vice-Chairman of GYMCL's board of directors, Gao Jia Lin, an employee of HLA, insisted on immediately convening a shareholders' meeting at the originally scheduled time and before Chairman Wang could arrive. The resulting "meeting" was attended solely by two representatives of the foreign shareholders. This "meeting," like the purported "interim shareholder's meeting" of December 6, 2004, purported to pass a number of resolutions. The Reporting Persons consider these measures without effect under Chinese law for reasons similar to those that applied to the purported December 6 interim meeting. II. Status of July 2003 Agreement ----------------------------- As indicated above and as previously reported, in July 2003 CYI and GYMCL concluded an agreement to resolve then pending litigation and arbitral proceedings and to restructure the relationship between CYI and GYMCL. In the July 2003 Agreement, CYI undertook to prepare specific asset and capital restructuring proposals for CYI and GYMCL. CYI did not present a written restructuring proposal until November 2003. CYI's November 2003 proposal was infeasible for reasons that the Reporting Persons believe were, or should have been, evident to CYI's legal and financial advisers at the time including, among other matters, potential adverse tax consequences to CYI shareholders. In the subsequent months, CYI has repeatedly stated in its reports filed with the Commission that it is attempting to implement the July 2003 Agreement, although neither CYI nor its Controlling Shareholder HLA has prepared and submitted to any of the Reporting Persons any written restructuring proposal since November 2003. At the initiative of the Reporting Persons, beginning in February 2004 representatives of Coomber and Guangxi Holding, on the one hand, and CYI and HLA, on the other, have met at various locations in Asia and the United States to discuss implementation of the July 2003 Agreement. In these meetings, Coomber and Guangxi Holding have put forward numerous proposals to implement the July 2003 Agreement. HLA and CYI have responded to and requested changes to those proposals, and Coomber and Guangxi Holding have accepted many of these changes. Nevertheless, CYI and HLA have not agreed to any of the proposals put forward by Coomber and Guangxi Holding and have put forward no written implementation plan of their own since November 2003. Having made insufficient progress in implementing the July 2003 Agreement, Mr. Wang, the Chairman of GYMCL, by letter dated December 6, 2004 therefore demanded that, consistent with its obligations under the July 2003 Agreement, CYI prepare on or before January 1, 2005 a
detailed implementation plan for a restructuring of CYI and GYMCL. A copy of Mr. Wang's December 6, 2004 letter to CYI has been filed as Exhibit 24 to this Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 6). CYI has not responded to this demand. As part of the July 2003 Agreement, CYI also agreed that, pending the implementation of the July 2003 Agreement, directors nominated by Coomber and Guangxi Holding would constitute a majority of the GYMCL board. Representatives of CYI, at the direction of HLA, have repeatedly attempted to renege on this provision of the July 2003 Agreement by attempting, at both GYMCL board and shareholders' meetings, to reinstate a board majority consisting of HLA designees which HLA would control. These efforts have failed for procedural reasons. CYI, at the direction of HLA, then purported to effectuate this plan through resolutions passed at the December 6, 2004 "interim shareholders meeting," which, as described above, was attended solely by representatives of the foreign shareholders controlled by HLA. For reasons noted above, the Reporting Persons believe that these resolutions lack legal effect. The Reporting Persons also believe, however, that these resolutions evidence the apparent intention of CYI to repudiate its agreement with respect to composition of the GYMCL board pending implementation of the July 2003 Agreement. Despite these actions by CYI and HLA, the Reporting Persons are endeavoring to implement their obligations under the July 2003 Agreement in good faith and remain willing to meet with CYI and HLA for these purposes. III. Coomber and Guangxi Holding Have Established a Marketing and Logistics ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Company With a View to Improving GYMCL's Results. ------------------------------------------------- GYMCL manufactures diesel engines that are sold to truck manufacturers. Purchasers of trucks manufactured with GYMCL engines are primarily sole proprietorships. In 2002, GYMCL's local management identified problems confronting Chinese sole proprietor truck operators with respect to financing, insurance, administrative support, booking, and other operational issues. The Chinese investors in GYMCL and GYMCL's local management believed that these problems were inhibiting GYMCL engine sales, and that GYMCL would benefit significantly from cooperation with an integrated marketing and logistics company that could assist Chinese truck operators to overcome these problems in purchasing trucks equipped with GYMCL engines. Coomber and Guangxi Holding, supported by local GYMCL management, reported these opportunities to the GYMCL board, which approved a limited program to implement these proposals at a board meeting on September 30, 2003. Coomber, Guangxi Holding and local GYMCL management felt that the limited program did not provide for adequate capitalization of the marketing and logistics company and, in any event, the corporate governance disputes described above blocked efforts to establish a full-service marketing and logistics company under GYMCL ownership.
In March 2004, Coomber and Guangxi Holding therefore established Yuchai Marketing Company Limited ("YMC"). Coomber contributed RMB 90 million in exchange for 90% of the equity in YMC. Guangxi Holding contributed RMB 10 million in exchange for the remaining 10% of YMC's equity. YMC and its subsidiaries, together with Yuchai Express Guarantee Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of GYMCL, provide a combination of insurance, financing, warranty servicing, administrative, and marketing services to independent Chinese truck operators and thereby facilitate sales and servicing of GYMCL products. The Reporting Persons understand that GYMCL's local Chinese management believes that GYMCL has realized appreciable benefits from cooperation with YMC, including increased engine sales and increased GYMCL brand loyalty among Chinese truckers. The Reporting Persons expect these benefits to increase as YMC's operations expand. In anticipation of such benefits, GYMCL loaned YMC approximately RMB 205 million in 2004, principally for working capital. These loans were initially disbursed directly to YMC. On September 9, 2004, these loans were approved by GYMCL's Board of Directors, although the "interim shareholders' meeting" ostensibly held on December 6, 2004 described above under part I.D.2 of this Item 4 purported to declare such approval invalid. In November and December 2004, the loans were restructured in the form of entrustment loans under the auspices of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, pursuant to which that bank, in effect, acts on behalf of GYMCL in making and administering the loans to YMC. The loans to YMC are secured by guarantees from Coomber and Guangxi Holding. GYMCL remains at risk if the loans are not repaid but has recourse against Coomber and Guangxi Holding under their guarantees. Copies of the loan documents have been filed as Exhibits 25 through 34 to this Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 6). YMC has also agreed in principle to purchase GYMCL's 71.38% interest in the spare parts business of GYMCL Monopoly & Marketing Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of GYMCL. This transaction was approved, also in principle, on December 7, 2004 by GYMCL's Board of Directors. The terms of the transaction are under discussion, and the parties have authorized an independent valuation firm to determine the fair price of the business and assets in question. The Reporting Persons continue to believe that GYMCL's interests would be best served if the marketing and logistics business currently conducted by YMC were under the ownership and control of GYMCL. It is, therefore, their intention to propose that GYMCL acquire YMC in connection with the overall resolution of the more general corporate governance issues between CYI and GYMCL, including termination of the Special Share control arrangements, on a mutually satisfactory basis. The modalities of the transfer could include a conversion of YMC's current debt to GYMCL into a majority equity interest in YMC. Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer. Item 5 is amended by the addition of the following:
By letter dated December 7, 2004, Coomber requested, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement of CYI, that CYI file a shelf registration statement with the Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for the offer and sale of the 4,601,550 shares of CYI common stock held by Coomber and not previously registered pursuant to the Securities Act. Coomber agreed to pay all Registration Expenses (as defined in the registration rights agreement) in connection with its request. Coomber also stated that it might utilize various possible methods of distributing its shares, including one or more of the transactions described under the caption "Plan of Distribution" in CYI's prospectus dated March 24, 2004 or in one or more prepaid forward sale transactions of the type described in the Reporting Persons Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 4). The Company has not yet filed the shelf registration statement that the Reporting Persons requested, and the Reporting Persons are unable to predict the timing of the filing of such registration statement or whether or how many shares of the Company's Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons will be sold pursuant to any such registration statement. The Reporting Persons' disclosure of their request does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to purchase any securities of the Company owned by the Reporting Persons. Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer. Item 6 is amended by the addition of the following: Reference is made to Item 4 of this Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 6) for information relating to the entrustment loans made to YMC under the auspices of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China. The information relating to such agreements set forth in Item 4 is qualified in its entirety by the complete provisions of such agreements, copies of which have been filed as Exhibits to this Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 6).

Exhibit 23 Guangxi Yuchai Machinery Co., Ltd. ---------------------------------- 2004-12-10 To: Hong Leong Technology Systems (BVI) Limited Earnest Assets Limited Youngstar Holdings Ltd. Cathay Diesel Holdings Ltd. Goldman Sachs Guangxi Yuchai Holdings (BVI) Ltd Tsang & Ong Nominees (BVI) Ltd Re: The Urgent Notice from the Foreign Shareholders regarding the Outcome of the Shareholders Meeting of Guangxi Yuchai Machinery Company Limited dated December 6, 2004. Gentlemen: I refer to the above "Urgent Notice." Please be advised that the "Urgent Notice" is premised on a number of factual and legal errors. The actions that you have reported therein are, accordingly, improper and wholly without legal effect. 1. Shareholders Meeting of December 6, 2004 Your report of the Shareholders Meeting of December 6, 2004 materially misrepresents what occurred at that meeting. (See "Urgent Notice" pp. 3-5.) Company Secretary Cooper Su explained at the meeting that, except Hong Leong Technology Systems (BVI) Limited, the credentials of each of the BVI companies could not be accepted under Chinese law because the representatives of each of your companies was acting under the direction and control of Hong Leong Asia Ltd. ("HLA") and Chinese authorities have repeatedly advised you that such direction and control cannot be given legal effect in China. As a consequences, the quorum of shares necessary to constitute a meeting under Article 26 of the Articles of Association was lacking. Chairman Wang Jian Ming therefore postponed the meeting for lack of a quorum in accordance with Article 29 of the Articles of Association. These matters were clearly stated at the Shareholders' meeting in both Chinese and English. We can only conclude your omission of these matters from your summary of the meeting was intentional and was intended to mislead third parties as to what occurred. The statement in your "Urgent Notice" that Wang Jian Ming declared the meeting closed for reasons having to do with the attempt to call an Interim Meeting is simply untrue. The statement in the purported "Resolution" that the foreign shareholders adopted that Wang Jian Ming left the meeting "groundlessly" is likewise untrue, and very patently, a lie. 2. Purported "Interim Meeting" The "Urgent Notice" discusses at some length the foreign shareholders attempts to convene an "Interim Shareholders Meeting" and argues that the Company's failure to hold such an Interim Meeting was in violation of the Company's Articles of Association. That discussion, too, includes numerous factual and legal inaccuracies, most of which are evident on the face of the documents attached to the "Urgent Notice."
Article 22 (b)(3) of the Articles of Association requires that shareholders holding more than one third of the shares call for the convening of an Interim Meeting. The amended Articles on which the "Urgent Notice" relies for a 10% rule are a 1996 draft that was never approved by the company's shareholders or by the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation (the agency responsible for such approvals in 1996). We refer you to your own Attachment III to the "Urgent Notice," which is only a mark-up of the original Articles. The "Urgent Notice" further contends that the one-third requirement was, in any event, met because BVI companies hold in the aggregate more than one-third Guangxi Yuchai's shares. Contrary to the "Urgent Notice," however, the Notice of Interim Shareholders' Meeting of October 29 was not filed by all six foreign shareholders. We refer you to your own Attachment I. The Notice at Attachment I is not signed by any of the foreign shareholders, nor was the original Notice that was received by the Company. The cover under which the Notice was sent to the Company was on the letterhead of HL (BVI) and was signed only by a representative of HL (BVI). We are aware of no documents evidencing that any company other than HL (BVI) authorized the Notice. Not, as the "Urgent Notice" contends, did Guangxi Yuchai accept the October 28 Notice by publishing the notification of a shareholders' meeting in the Chinese press. Once again, we refer you to your own Attachments, in this case Attachment VI. The notice there plainly indicates that the Company was calling a General Meeting of the Company's shareholders. With all due respect, these unfortunate errors could have been avoided if you had simply read your own Attachments or followed the valid Articles of Association of the Company. 3. Purported "Interim Shareholders Meeting" Invalidly Convened The Interim Shareholders Meeting described in your "Urgent Notice" was invalidly convened for each of several reasons. As noted above, no Interim Shareholders Meeting was ever properly called. Further, only the Chairman of the Company has the authority to convene such a meeting, and the Chairman did not do so. A General Shareholders Meeting was, however, properly convened pursuant to the November 4 newspaper notice. That Meeting was closed by the Chairman. The foreign shareholders had no authority under the Company's Articles of Association to convene a new meeting, to continue the General Shareholders Meeting, or to appoint Gao Jia Lin as a Chairman for any such kind of meeting. Further, it appears that, whatever kind of meeting you purported to hold, you were operating on the basis of draft Company Articles that never became valid. Any action taken under these circumstances cannot be valid or bind the Company.
Finally, and most fundamentally, as you have been repeatedly advised, any actions of the foreign shareholders taken at the direction and control of HLA cannot be given legal effect in China consistent with Chinese law. 4. Board of Directors Meeting The Guangxi Yuchai Board of Directors meeting was held on December 7, 2004, as scheduled. For the reasons set out above, the "Resolution" of the foreign shareholders purporting to cancel that meeting was of no legal effect. We note that prior to your "Urgent Notice" each of the following Directors signed an attendance record confirming that they were present for that meeting: Teo Tong Kooi, Wrixon Gasteen, and Gao Jia Lin. Their decision not to sit through the meeting was their choice and has no effect on their legal presence at the meeting. They were recorded as leaving the meeting without excuse and not voting for each of the votes held at the meeting. 5. Repudiation of July 2003 Agreement One of the actions that you purported to take at the "Interim Shareholder Meeting" described in your "Urgent Notice" was the election of two additional directors to the Board of the Company. That action, like all other actions taken at the purported meeting, was without legal effect. We note, however, that the reduction of the number of directors of the Company to 11 was a material condition to the July 2003 Agreement by your common parent corporation, China Yuchai International Ltd. ("CYI"). This is inconsistent with CYI's recent (November 8, 2004) 6-K report to the United States Securities & Exchange Commission confirming CYI's commitment to implement that Agreement. We are, therefore, copying this letter to CYI and ask that CYI promptly confirm whether it considers itself still bound to the July 2003 Agreement.

Exhibit 24 Guangxi Yuchai Machinery Co., Ltd. VIA FACSIMILE +65-6222 0087 Mr. Wrixon Gasteen President China Yuchai International Limited 16 Raffles Quay #26-00 Hong Leong Building Singapore 048581 Dear Mr. Gasteen: We refer to CYI's press release of November 8, 2004, reporting on CYI's recent performance and announcing CYI's intentions for the future. The management and employees of Guangxi Yuchai Machinery ("GYM") are very proud of our results this year. A great deal of careful planning by our management and hard work by our employees produced the dramatic increases in sales, revenues, and net income that were reported in your press release. We are pleased that CYI shares our satisfaction in these results and hope that your shareholders are satisfied as well. The market certainly responded positively to this announcement, with CYI's share price rising more than 20% when the results were released. We are also pleased to see your confirmation that "CYI remains committed to working towards an agreed plan with the parties to the July 2003 Agreement with the goal of enhancing value for its shareholders as expeditiously as possible." We are disappointed, however, to hear you express doubt that the restructuring contemplated in that Agreement can be implemented in the near future. We are, quite frankly, puzzled at this statement and what it reflects as to your intentions. In September of this year, we put forward an outline of a restructuring plan that we believed was consistent with the parties' intentions in the July 2003 Agreement and could, as a practical matter, be implemented promptly. Since that time, we have made every effort to try to implement that plan and to accommodate all legitimate concerns raised by your side. We are, therefore, disappointed that you have thus far been unwilling to enter into written undertakings to implement the July 2003 Agreement and that you have failed to submit any alternative proposal. Indeed, in the nearly 18 months since the July 2003 Agreement was signed, CYI's only proposal to implement that Agreement was the November 2003 CSFB proposal, which was clearly impracticable at the time CYI submitted it to us. During the past year, despite repeated representations to the United States
Securities & Exchange Commission ("SEC") that it is committed to implementing the July 2003 Agreement, CYI has submitted no specific proposal to implement that Agreement. All implementing proposals put forward over the past year have been put forward by our side, and CYI has confined itself to raising one objection after another to every proposal we have prepared. If CYI is, in fact, committed to implementing the July 2003 Agreement, we believe CYI should be able to put forward a specific implementation plan at this time. You have certainly had adequate time to consider our proposals and to devise any of your own. We therefore request that, on or before January 1, 2005, you present to us a realistic, detailed proposal to implement the July 2003 Agreement. We are prepared to have our attorneys and financial advisers meet with your advisers promptly thereafter to try to conclude a written agreement. If we do not receive such a plan from you by January 1, 2005, we must conclude that, contrary to your public statements and reports to the SEC, you have no intention of implementing the July 2003 Agreement in good faith, and we will so report to Chinese authorities and, if required, the SEC. In your recent press release you placed great emphasis on the importance of promptly putting into effect appropriate corporate governance guidelines for GYM. We share that intention and note that we cooperated fully last year in preparing such guidelines and obtaining their approval by the GYM Board of Directors. The sole obstacle to implementing those guidelines remains, however, the need to resolve the "golden share" issue. As you have been repeatedly advised, the arrangements whereby Hong Leong Asia Ltd. ("HLA"), through its "golden share" in CYI and related shareholder agreements, is able to control GYM are not accepted by the Chinese Government and cannot be recognized under Chinese law. In recent correspondence between our attorneys and again at the September 9, 2004 Board of Directors meeting, we offered you repeated opportunities to substantiate your position that, contrary to the views of the Chinese Government, HLA's "golden share" rights are lawful in China. You have been unable to do so. We must, therefore, request once again that CYI and HLA promptly take appropriate measures to eliminate their "golden share" control of GYM. We will then be in a position to implement the new corporate governance guidelines that we agree will be in the best interests of GYM, CYI, and CYI's shareholders. Sincerely yours, /s/ WANG JIANMING 04/12/5 -------------------------------------------- Wang Jianming Chairman, Guangxi Yuchai Machinery Co., Ltd.
Exhibit 25 Agency Agreement No.: 2004-weituo-1 Principal: Guangxi Yuchai Machinery Company Ltd. Legal Representative: Wang Jianming Domicile: 88 Tianqiaoxi Road, Yuling Agent: Name: Jiangnan Branch, Yuling Municipality, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Legal Representative: He Jun Domicile: 5 Yuchai Drive, Yuling The Principal hereby entrusts the Agent with the business of entrusted loans, which means that the Principal shall provide the funds for the loans, and the Agent shall give out the loans and assist the Principal in getting repayments thereof in accordance with Principal's instructions regarding the designated recipient as well as the uses, amounts, terms and interests of the loans. The Principal and the Agent, after friendly negotiations, enter into the following provisions for compliance by both parties. Chapter One Rights and Obligations of Principal Article 1 The Principal shall provide the entrusted funds to the Agent. The entrusted funds shall be at the disposal of the Principal and shall be from legitimate sources. The Principal shall transfer the entrusted funds to the special account opened by the Agent for the entrusted funds before the loans are given out. Article 2 The Principal shall use its own discretion to determine the Borrower as well as the uses, amounts, terms and interests of the loans, etc., and shall enter into an Entrusted Loan Agreement with the Agent and the Borrower. The Borrower designated by the Principal shall have legal standing as such; the uses of the loans shall conform to laws, regulations and relevant policies; the amount of each loan shall not exceed that of the entrusted fund; and the interest rate on the loans shall not be higher than permitted loan interest for financial institutions stipulated by the People's Bank of China. Article 3 The Principal shall decide on its own whether the entrusted loans shall be guaranteed. If the loans are to be guaranteed, the Principal shall identify the guarantor and the collateral from those selected by the Borrower, and shall examine the legitimacy and reliability of the guaranty. The Principal shall also entrust the Agent to enter an Entrusted Loan Agreement (Guarantee Agreement for Entrusted Loan?) with the guarantor.
Article 4 The Principal shall authorize the Agent to give out entrusted loans within the limits of the entrusted fund, and shall not require the Agent to give out funds in excess of the entrusted fund. Before giving out an entrusted loan, the Principal shall issue to the Agent a Notice for Extending Entrusted Loans, which shall set forth the number of the entrusted loan contract, the currency, amount, interest rate, and Borrower of the loan, Borrower's account number, confirmed method of guaranty, as well as information about the guarantor. Article 5 In cases where the Principal agrees to extend the term of the entrusted loan, the Principal shall give the Agent a 15-day prior notice, and shall enter into an Extension Agreement with the Agent and the Borrower. If the original loan is guaranteed, the Principal shall serve a 10-day prior notice on the guarantor requiring that the guarantor enter into with the Agent a contract to renew the guaranty contract. Article 6 The Principal shall assume the risk of the entrusted loans by itself, and shall not require in any form that the Agent assume such risk. When the Borrower is unable to timely pay the principal and interests of the loans, the Principal shall not require that the Agent assume liability for such payments. Article 7 The Principal may either supervise and manage by itself the Borrower's use of the entrusted loans, or entrust the Agent with the supervision and management of such use. The specific method of supervision and management shall be specifically set forth in the Entrusted Loan Contract. Article 8 The Principal shall pay to the Agent the service charges computed on the basis of the amount and term of the entrusted loan and the service charge rate agreed upon. The service charge rate agreed upon for the entrusted loan hereunder is 0.1/oo monthly. The method and time of payment of the service charges is by bank transfer before the 25th day of each month. Payment of the service charges is not conditioned on whether the Borrower has timely paid the principal and interests of the entrusted loan.
Article 9 When the Principal requests that the Agent sue the Borrower on its behalf for loans that are already overdue, the Principal shall provide a written letter of entrustment. When the Borrower is bankrupt, the Principal shall have the right to request that the Agent assist it in the liquidation process and seek repayment of the loans. Article 10 With respect to the loans which as a matter of fact can not be repaid, the Principal shall serve on the Agent a written notice to release the Agent from performing the responsibilities and obligations under the agency agreement and to agree that the Agent may write off the amounts of such entrusted loans against the entrusted funds (?). Thereupon the Principal shall no longer be obligated to pay service charges. Article 11 The Principal shall assume and pay in advance expenses that will be incurred in connection with the handling of the entrusted business. Expenses hereunder will include but not be limited to the following: expenses for public notarization and registration in completing the procedures for guaranty, costs of litigation, property attachment and enforcement, expenses in connection with seeking repayment from the guarantor or disposal of the collateral, and other expenses. Article 12 The Principal represents that (1) The entrustment hereunder is an act of the Principal out of its free will; (2) The entrusted funds are of legitimate sources and are at its disposal; (3) The Principal and its designated Borrower have legitimate standing; (4) The intended use of the entrusted loans conform to the State's laws and regulations and relevant policies. (5) The Principal shall assume all risks of the loans, and the Agent shall not be held liable for such risks in any form. Chapter Two Rights and Obligations of Agent Article 13 The Agent enters into the Entrusted Loan Contract with the Principal and the Borrower pursuant to this agreement. Article 14 In cases where the entrusted loans are to be guaranteed and the procedures for the guaranty are to be completed by the Agent upon the authorization of the Principal, the Agent shall enter into a guaranty contract with the guarantor pursuant to the written notice from the Principal, and submit
the guaranty contract to the Principal for confirmation and written comments. Expenses in connection with the notarization and registration of the guaranty contract shall be assumed and paid in advance by the Principal, and the Agent shall have not obligation to pay on behalf of the Principal. Article 15 After receiving an entrusted fund, the Agent shall open an entrusted fund account for the Principal, for settlement of amounts on the account. The Agent shall give out loans to the Borrower on designated dates as agreed upon in the Entrusted Loan Agreement and in accordance with the requirements of the Notice for Extending Entrusted Loans. After an entrusted loan is given out, the Agent shall open an entrusted loan account, for settlement of extended loans and repayments as well as interests accrued. The Agent shall have the right to refuse to give out loans if the Principal's request exceeds the amount of the entrusted fund. Article 16 Upon receiving notice from the Principal regarding the extension of the term of a loan, the Agent shall enter into an Extension Agreement with the Principal and the Borrower. If the extended loans are guaranteed loans, the Agent shall not undertake to complete the procedures for such extension before it enters into a renewed guaranty contract with the guarantor upon authorization from the Principal. Article 17 The Agent shall have the right to require that the Principal provide relevant materials to prove the legitimacy of the use of the entrusted loans hereunder. Where a listed company entrusts the Agent to give out entrusted loans to its shareholders, the Agent shall require that the listed company provide the relevant board resolution and promise that such entrusted loans will not be detrimental to the interest of other shareholders. When the Agent has doubts about the legitimacy of the use of the entrusted loans, it may refuse to handle the matter. Article 18 If the entrusted loans involve long distance transactions, the Agent may further entrust the matter to an office of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China at the place of the Borrower. The Agent shall be liable for the acts of the other ICBC office. Article 19 The Agent shall assist the Principal in seeking timely repayment of the principal and payment of interest thereon. Within five business days after
receiving each payment of the principal and interest of the loans, the Agent shall transfer to the Principal's designated account the full amount of the Principal's entitlement. Article 20 The Agent shall collect service charges from the Principal as agreed upon in Article 8 hereunder. Article 21 When the Borrower fails to repay the entrusted loans when due, the Agent shall serve timely notice on the Principal, and shall urge the Borrower to repay the loans in writing before the limitation of actions runs out. When the loans are guaranteed loans, the Agent shall urge the guarantor to repay the loans in writing within the term of the guaranty. Article 22 When the Agent is instructed by the Principal in writing to lodge a suit against the Borrower who has failed to pay the principal and interests of a loan when due, the Agent shall file a suit as instructed; in the absence of such written instruction, the Agent has no obligation to sue the Borrower. Article 23 When the entrusted loans can not be repaid because of Borrower's bankruptcy or otherwise, the Agent may stop performing its obligations and responsibilities of the agency agreement pursuant to the Principal's written notice, and write off the amount of such loans against the entrusted funds, whereupon the service charges shall stop accruing. In the absence of such written notice, the Agent shall have the right to write off such loans as bad debts three years after the expiration of the entrusted loans, and the Principal shall assume all liabilities in connection therewith. Article 24 In performing its obligations in connection with the entrusted loans, the Agent shall timely report to the Principal with regard to the giving out and management of the loans as well as collection thereof (by requests urging repayment or by litigation). In particular, the Agent shall timely report to the Principal with regard to the Borrower's business and financial conditions and any major event that is likely to affect or carries a significant weight on the security of the loans, and take proper measures in accordance with the instructions of the Principal. Chapter Three Liability for Breach
Article 25 The Principal shall assume all liabilities which arise from the sources of the entrusted funds, the recipient of the loans, illegitimacy of the uses, etc. Article 26 When the Principal fails to pay service charges timely, the Agent is entitled to a penalty computed at the daily rate of 1% of the amount due. The Agent shall have the right to set off the unpaid service charges and penalties directly against the Principal's other accounts or directly against the principal and interests of the entrusted loans. (?) When the Principal fails to pay or refuse to pay the service charges for over six months, the Agent shall have the right to set off the amount of such service charges against the recouped entrusted funds, at the peril of the Principal. (?) Article 27 When the Principal sustains losses as a consequence of the Agent's failure to give out entrusted loans as required hereunder or under the Entrusted Loan Contract and the Notice for Extending Entrusted Loans hereunder, the Agent shall assume all liabilities resulting therefrom. Article 28 When the Principal sustains losses as a consequence of the Agent's failure to transfer the funds as agreed upon hereunder or under the Entrusted Loans Contract after it has collected the principal and interests of the loans from the Borrower, the Agent shall assume all liabilities resulting therefrom. Chapter Four Other Provisions Article 29 Method of Dispute Resolution The parties shall seek to settle their disputes arising out of the performance of this agreement through consultation. When they are unable to settle the dispute through consultation, they may choose (2) from among those listed below: (1) Submit the dispute to _____ (an arbitration committee) for arbitration; (2) Institute a legal action at the court at the place of the Agent. Article 30 Other Provisions (to the extent that they do not contravene any other provisions hereof, and do not affect the substantive rights and obligations of the parties): -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
