                                   Litigation 
 
The Company wishes to announce certain developments in the litigation claim 
filed by The Cascade Fund, LLLP in which the Company is named as a defendant 
(the "Claim"). 
 
The Claim was filed in Colorado, USA in June 2008 by an investor in several of 
ACMH Limited's ("ACMH") investment funds and initially named ACMH and certain of 
its former executives as defendants. On 2 March 2009 the Company announced that 
it had been named as an additional defendant. The plaintiff alleged successor 
liability against the Company on the basis of the Company's demerger from ACMH, 
and sought redress against the Company in the event that the Claim against ACMH 
is successful. ACMH and the Company filed separate motions to dismiss the Claim 
in October, 2008 and September 2009, respectively. 
 
On 31 March 2010, the United States District Court for the District of Colorado 
granted ACMH's motion to dismiss the Claim against ACMH and certain other 
defendants. The ruling did not consider the Company's motion to dismiss the 
Claim, which remains pending before the Court. Further announcements will be 
made as appropriate.
