Grandtop is, and was before the start of the Offer Period, already the registered and beneficial owner of 24,375,975 Birmingham City Shares, representing approximately 29.9 per cent. of Birmingham City's issued share capital. Accordingly, as at 1.00 p.m. on 2 November 2009, Grandtop owned or had received valid acceptances of the Offer in respect of a total of 77,654,297 Birmingham City Shares representing in aggregate approximately 95.3 per cent. of the current issued share capital of Birmingham City. Prior to the announcement of the Offer on 21 August 2009, Grandtop received irrevocable undertakings to accept the Offer from certain Birmingham City Shareholders in respect of their entire beneficial shareholdings totalling 40,757,026 Birmingham City Shares representing 50.0 per cent. of the entire issued share capital of Birmingham City. Valid acceptances have been received in respect of all of these Birmingham City Shares and they are included in the acceptances figure above. Full details of the irrevocable undertakings are set out in the Offer Document dated 15 September 2009.

Cancellation of trading on AIM and re-registration as a private company On 14 October 2009 it was announced that an application had been made by Birmingham City to the London Stock Exchange to cancel the admission to trading on AIM of its ordinary shares with effect from 7.00 a.m. on 11 November 2009. Birmingham City Shareholders should note that the cancellation of the admission to trading of Birmingham City Shares on AIM will significantly reduce the liquidity and marketability of Birmingham City Shares which are not acquired under the Offer and their value may be materially and adversely affected as a consequence. It is also intended that Birmingham City will be re-registered as a private company under the relevant provisions of the Companies Act. Compulsory Acquisition Birmingham City Shareholders are reminded that because the level of Offer acceptances has passed 90 per cent. of the Birmingham City Shares to which the Offer relates, as set out in the Offer Document, Grandtop may exercise its rights pursuant to sections 979 to 982 (inclusive) of the Companies Act 2006 to acquire compulsorily the remaining Birmingham City Shares in respect of which the Offer has not been accepted. A copy of this announcement will shortly be available on Grandtop's investor relations website www.irasia.com/listco/hk/grandtop/index.htm.
