EXTENSION OF THE EXCLUSIVITY PERIOD IN RESPECT OF THE PROPOSED ACQUISITION OF A CONTROLLING INTEREST IN A GOLD MINE LOCATED IN GUIZHOU, THE PRC

The Board announces that on 17 October 2011, the Proposed Purchaser and the Proposed Vendor entered into the Second Addendum to extend the Exclusivity Period from 19 October 2011 to 31 December 2011.

The Board wishes to emphasize that the Proposed Acquisition may or may not materialize and Shareholders and potential investors are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the shares of the Company.

Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 20 April 2011 (“ First Announcement ”) and the announcement of the Company dated 17 May 2011 (“ Second Announcement ”). Unless otherwise stated, capitalised terms used in this announcement shall have the same meanings as those defined in the First Announcement.

As disclosed in the First Announcement, the Proposed Purchaser and the Proposed Vendor entered into the Memorandum and the Exclusivity Period was granted to the Proposed Purchaser, during which the Proposed Vendor has agreed that, it shall not, among other things, directly or indirectly, discuss or negotiate with any other party for the purpose of frustrating or impeding the furtherance of the transaction contemplated under the Memorandum. The Memorandum will be automatically terminated upon the earlier of the expiry of the Exclusivity Period or the Definitive Agreement (as defined in the Second Announcement) has been entered into.

As more time is required for the Proposed Purchaser and the Proposed Vendor to negotiate and agree the terms of the Definitive Agreement, on 17 October 2011, the Proposed Purchaser and the Proposed Vendor entered into the second addendum (“ Second Addendum ”) to the Memorandum (as supplemented by the Addendum (as defined in the Second Announcement)) to extend the Exclusivity Period from 19 October 2011 to 31 December 2011.

Save for the above, all other terms and conditions of the Memorandum as supplemented by the Addendum shall remain unchanged and be in full force and effect in its original term.
