EXTENSION OF EXCLUSIVITY PERIOD TO MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING IN RESPECT OF THE POSSIBLE ACQUISITION OF THE INTEREST IN A TOURISM PROJECT IN GUANGXI, THE PRC

Reference is made to the announcement issued by the Company dated 20 April 2015 (“ Announcement ”) regarding the memorandum of understanding dated 20 April 2015 (“ MOU ”) entered into between the Company and Bi Jingjun (“ Vendor ”) setting out the preliminary understanding in relation to the possible acquisition by the Company or its nominees from the Vendor and his associate or their controlled corporations of equity interest in a company, which would be jointly owned by the Vendor and his associate and which would hold major interest in a tourism project located in Daxin County, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, the People’s Republic of China, at the Sino-Vietnamese border.

Unless otherwise stated, capitalised terms used herein shall have the same meanings as defined in the Announcement.

As disclosed in the Announcement, both the Company and the Vendor would proceed to the negotiation for a legally-binding Formal Agreement on or before 180 days from the date of the MOU (“ Exclusivity Period ”), or such later date to be agreed by the parties thereto.

Given that additional time is required for the parties to the MOU to prepare the Formal Agreement, the parties have entered into an extension letter on 15 October 2015 (“ Extension Letter ”), pursuant to which the parties have mutually agreed to extend the Exclusivity Period to 15 December 2015 (or such later date as agreed by both parties). In addition, the parties have also agreed that the subject matter of the acquisition may either be equity interests in the holding company of the Tourism Project established in the PRC or its holding company incorporated overseas.

Save for the extension of the Exclusivity Period and possible change of the subject matter of the acquisition as disclosed above, all other terms and conditions of the MOU remain unchanged and shall continue in full force and effect.
