(b) These corporate bonds are guaranteed by Sinopec Group Company and are carried at amortised cost.
(c) On 24 April 2007, the Company issued zero coupon convertible bonds due 2014 with an aggregate principal amount of HKD 11.7 billion (the “2007 Convertible
Bonds”). The holders can convert the 2007 Convertible Bonds into shares of the Company from 4 June 2007 onwards at a price of HKD10.76 per share, subject to
adjustment for subdivision or consolidation of shares, bonus issues, rights issues, capital distribution, change of control and other events which have a dilutive effect
on the issued share capital of the Company (“the Conversion Option”). Unless previously redeemed, converted or purchased and cancelled, the 2007 Convertible Bonds
will be redeemed on the maturity date at 121.069% of the principal amount. The Company has an early redemption option at any time after 24 April 2011 (subject to
certain criteria) (the “Early Redemption Option”) and a cash settlement option when the holders exercise their conversion right (the “Cash Settlement Option”).
During the year ended 31 December 2011, the Company redeemed part of the 2007 Convertible Bonds upon certain holders’ request, with the principal amount of
HKD 39 million.
During the year ended 31 December 2012, the conversion price of the 2007 Convertible Bonds was adjusted to HKD 10.60 per share as the result of dividend
distribution.
As at 31 December 2012, the carrying amounts of the liability component and the derivative component, representing the Conversion Options, the Early Redemption
Option and the Cash Settlement Option, of the 2007 Convertible Bonds were RMB 10,842 million (2011: RMB 10,345 million) and RMB 114 million (2011: RMB 70
million), respectively. No conversion of the 2007 Convertible Bonds occurred for the year ended 31 December 2012.
As at 31 December 2012 and 2011, the fair value of the derivative component of the 2007 Convertible Bonds was calculated using the Black-Scholes Model. The
following are the major inputs used in the Black-Scholes Model:
2012 2011
Stock price of H shares HKD 8.78 HKD 8.17
Conversion price HKD 10.60 HKD 10.76
Option adjusted spread 150 basis points 200 basis points
Average risk free rate 0.39% 0.72%
Average expected life 1.3 years 2.3 years
Any change in the major inputs into the Black-Sholes Model will result in changes in the fair value of the derivative component. The changes in the fair value of the
derivative component from 31 December 2011 to 31 December 2012 resulted in an unrealised loss of RMB 43 million (2011: an unrealised gain RMB 259 million),
which has been recorded in the “finance costs” section of the consolidated income statement for year ended 31 December 2012.
The initial carrying amount of the liability component of the 2007 Convertible Bonds is the residual amount, which is after deducting the allocated issuance cost of
the 2007 Convertible Bonds relating to the liability component and the fair value of the derivative component as at 24 April 2007. Interest expense is calculated using
the effective interest method by applying the effective interest rate of 4.19% to the adjusted liability component. Should the aforesaid derivative component not been
separated out and the entire 2007 Convertible Bonds been considered as the liability component, the effective interest rate would have been 3.03%.
(d) On 26 February 2008, the Company issued bonds with stock warrants due 2014 with an aggregate principal amount of RMB 30 billion in the PRC (the “Bonds with
Warrants”). The Bonds with Warrants, which bear a fixed interest rate of 0.80% per annum payable annually, were issued at par value of RMB 100. The Bonds with
Warrants are guaranteed by Sinopec Group Company.
The initial recognition of the liability component of the Bond with Warrants is measured as the present value of the future interest and principal payments, discounted
at the market rate of interest applicable at the time of initial recognition to similar liabilities that do not have a conversion option or other derivative components (“market
interest rate”). Interest expense is calculated using the effective interest method by applying the market interest rate of 5.40% to the liability component.
