(2) Segment information, in 2008, we commenced a reorganization to provide
each of our businesses with a sharper focus on its respective business
operation, strategies and competitive challenges (the
"Reorganization"). On June 27, 2008, our board of directors approved
a master separation agreement, effective as of July 1, 2008 pursuant
to which we transferred substantially all of our assets and
liabilities related to the MMORPG and advanced casual game business to
a newly-established legal entity (the "Separation").
The segment information provided above has been prepared as if each
reporting segment's current corporate structure which separates our
business into (i) the development, sourcing and management of
intellectual property rights relating to MMORPGs and advanced casual
games and (ii) the operation of our service platform that provides
distribution, payment, customer services and other e-commerce service
for online entertainment content, had been in existence throughout the
periods presented and as if the Reorganization had occurred as of the
earliest period presented. Accordingly, for the period from January
1, 2008 to June 30, 2008, the information was prepared by combining
the revenues and cost of revenues that were directly applicable to
each reporting segment, and for the period from October 1, 2008 to
December 31, 2008, the information set forth above consists of the
revenue and gross profit of each segment, including with respect to
Shanda Games as a standalone entity subsequently to the Separation.
