As a result of the Preferential Offering Shares issued under the

the Enlarged Issued Shares of the Company, having taken into
account the Proposed Disposal as disclosed in the circular to the
shareholders dated 21 December 2012.
Dr Eric Goh Swee Ming, the Executive Director of the Company,
who is also an Entitled Shareholder, has subscribed for 3,750,000
Preferential Offering Shares at the Issue Price. Following this
subscription Dr Eric Goh Swee Ming will hold 10,808,823 Ordinary
Shares in the Company representing approximately 0.52 per cent. of
the Enlarged Issued Shares.
Mr Bay Yew Chuan, the Non-Executive Director of the Company, who
is also an Entitled Shareholder, has subscribed for 2,000,000
Preferential Offering Shares at the Issue Price. Following this
subscription Mr Bay Yew Chuan will hold 27,000,000 Ordinary Shares

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of approximately
US$1,832,929.44 (after deducting professional fees and related
expenses of approximately US$376,000 and including the additional
US$1 million and US$8,000 commitments for which funds are awaited)
raised from the Preferential Offering for the general working
capital purposes of the Company and to develop the business and
technologies of the Company, particularly those in relation to the
1000 Island Project.
Application has therefore been made for 150,116,180 Ordinary
Shares, which will rank pari passu with all existing Ordinary
Shares, to be admitted to trading on AIM. Trading in such shares is
expected to commence on or around 5 April 2013.

same meaning ascribed to them in the Offering Letter and which were
also set out at the end of the announcement released on the 14
January 2013 in relation to the despatch of the Offering Letter,
unless expressly provided or the context requires otherwise.
