Dear Madam/Sir

Loan Facility Amended – additional $1m

We refer to the Company’s Convertible Loan Facility of $7 million granted by Star Diamond Developments Limited (“Star Diamond”) in August 2012.

ASF is pleased to announce that it has entered into a new Loan Agreement with Star Diamond (“New Loan Agreement”), which supersedes the previous agreement. Pursuant to the New Loan Agreement, Star Diamond agrees to grant an additional convertible loan facility of $1 million to ASF (where such funds have been drawndown) and also to extend the loan maturity date for the entire funds to 23 August 2013. The extension to the loan maturity is intended to provide the parties with ample time to discuss a number of possible and mutually beneficial loan conversion arrangements.

Under the New Loan Agreement, interest will be payable at the rate of 1% per month, accrued monthly. The interest will accrue from the date funds are drawdown. Any Loan amount outstanding at the Loan maturity date will be satisfied by the issue of ASF’s shares at an issue price equal to a 10% discount below the 30-day VWAP in the period up to one trading day immediately prior to Loan maturity.

Alternatively, subject to further agreement between the parties, the Loan facility can be fully repaid prior to Loan maturity by conversion of the loan into either one or a combination of ASF’s shares or into new shares of an ASF subsidiary or investments held by such subsidiaries.
