Exercise Resolution exclude any votes attaching to ordinary shares 
beneficially owned by Jin Guang Ltd., the nominee company of Medgat 
Kumar and Prax Pte Ltd., the nominee company of Winston Sanjeev Kumar 
Soosaipillai. 
 
   Shares owned by Jin Guang Ltd. and Prax Pte Ltd.  each account for 8.6% 
of the ordinary shares issued by the Company. If all 192,300,000 
warrants are exercised and assuming the Annuity and Life Reassurance 
Ltd. ("ALR") loans are converted at maturity into 186,316,064 ordinary 
shares then Jin Guang Ltd. and Prax Pte Ltd. would each own 
approximately 15.8% of the enlarged number of ordinary shares.

exclude any votes attaching to ordinary shares beneficially owned or 
controlled by Pope Asset Management LLC, Annuity and Life Reassurance

   Together these shares account for 17.3% of the ordinary shares issued by 
the Company. If the ALR loans are converted at maturity and assuming 
conversion of the warrants owned by Jin Guang Ltd. and Prax Pte Ltd. the 
percentage of the enlarged number of ordinary shares owned by Pope Asset 
Management LLC, ALR and their affiliates would be approximately 30.9%.
