TEMBUSU INVESTMENTS LIMITED

("Tembusu" or the "Company")

UNAUDITED HALF-YEARLY REPORT FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2011

26 September 2011

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

The Company was not active last year.

The Company will continue to look for opportunities especially in areas related to natural resources. For that reason, the Company is proposing a change in its investing policy.

Investing policy

On 14 September 2011, the Company sent out a notice of general meeting to shareholders in order to seek approval for a change in its investing policy. The proposed resolution is as follows:

The Company's Investing Policy is to focus on building up businesses, or alternatively identifying and acquiring quoted and unquoted businesses, that are involved in providing services and facilities to support, assist and serve the natural resources industries, in particular exploration, mining and extraction of resources. The services and facilities that are to be within the scope of the investing strategy will include transportation, logistics, processing, testing and storage. The investing strategy will extend to companies and businesses that are engaged in trading of natural resource products and commodities, including but not limited to coal, owning natural resources, mines and tenements and exploration and extraction rights for natural resources of any kind, developing and construction of infrastructure for transportation, including building roads and building and owning plants for the conversion and processing of coal to useable fuel in each case in any part of the world.

The Company's investment strategy will continue to include real estate, investment and development, including the operation of businesses that can be combined with real estate interests based in Asia, though other geographical areas will be considered should appropriate opportunities occur which could benefit the Company.

By actively investing in businesses with complementary areas of expertise, which may for example include in relation to the natural resource sector, including exploration, processing, inspection, testing, aviation, maintenance and similar activities and in the real estate sector, real estate, education, hotels, mortgage financing and other such activities, the Directors believe that it is possible to generate considerable opportunities for the cross selling of services between the different operations and countries. The Directors also intend to continue to make minority investments in such businesses where it would be a passive investor, but where those investments provide the opportunity for enhancing the growth prospects of the Company.

With regard to the acquisitions that the Company expects to make, the Directors may adopt earn-out structures, with specific performance targets being set for the sellers of the businesses acquired, and with suitable metrics applied.

The Company may invest by way of hiring appropriate persons to build up a business or by outright acquisition or by the acquisition of assets, including intellectual property, of a relevant business, partnerships or joint venture arrangements. Such investments may result in the Company acquiring the whole or part of a company (which in the case of an investment in a company may be private or listed on a stock exchange, and which may be pre-revenue), and such investments may constitute a minority stake in the Company or project in question. The Company's investments may take the form of equity, joint venture debt, convertible instruments, licence rights, or other financial instruments as the Director deem appropriate.

The Company will be both an active and a passive investor and the Directors will place no minimum or maximum limit on the length of time that any investment may be held.

There is no limit on the number of projects into which the Company may invest, nor the proportion of the Company's gross assets that any investment may represent at any time and the Company will consider possible opportunities anywhere in the world.

There are no borrowing limits in the Articles of Association of the Company. The Directors do not intend to acquire any cross-holdings in other corporate entities that have an interest in the Ordinary Shares.

There are no restrictions in the type of investment that the Company might make nor on the type of opportunity that may be considered other than set out in this Investing Policy.

As the Company's ordinary shares are traded on AIM this provides a facility for shareholders to realise their investment in the Company. In addition, the Directors may consider from time to time other means of facilitating returns to shareholders including dividends, share repurchases, demergers, and schemes of arrangement or liquidation.
