                           Share Buy-Back Programme 
 
At the Company's last annual general meeting on 27 July 2016 (the "AGM"), Weiss 
Korea shareholders granted the Company a general buy-back authority of up to 
40% of the Company's issued share capital. 
 
The Company is about to go into a closed period due to its annual results for 
the twelve months ended 31 December 2016. These results will be published on or 
around 27 April 2017. The Company has appointed N+1 Singer Advisory LLP to 
manage an irrevocable programme during the closed period (the "Closed Period 
Buy-Back Programme") to buy-back ordinary shares within certain pre-set 
parameters. The Closed Period Buy-Back Programme will commence today and will 
run until the end of the closed period, being the date of publication of the 
Company's Accounts for the twelve months ended 31 December 2016, unless 
completed earlier. 
 
Any shares purchased in the Closed Period Buy-Back Programme will count towards 
the Company's general buy-back authority of 40% of the Company's issued share 
capital, as approved at the Company's AGM. 
 
Weiss Korea confirms that it currently has no inside information.
