Zhongpin Corrects Its Expected Capital Expenditures for the Next 12 Months that Appeared in its News Release of May 6, 2011

The paragraph in the section about liquidity and capital resources, correcting that number, now reads as follows:  Zhongpin believes its existing cash and cash equivalents, together with its ability to secure bank borrowings, will be sufficient to finance its investment in new facilities, with budgeted capital expenditures of about $132.7 million over the next 12 months, and to satisfy its working capital needs. It intends to satisfy its short-term debt obligations that mature over the next 12 months through additional short-term bank loans, in most cases by rolling the maturing loans into new short-term loans with the same lenders as it has done in the past.

The number that was incorrectly shown was $1,872.4 million, which is Zhongpin's immediately available funds from its bank lines of credit (net of current borrowings).

Zhongpin and Christensen regret the error and apologize for any temporary difficulty or misunderstanding it may have created.
