Alex,

After our meeting this morning with the officials of the Reserve Bank they said that since the
fund is still in the escrow account of the Bank for we to have asses to the fund and subsequent
transferring it into your account we have to produce Tax clearance certificate, money laundering
and anti terrorism certificate so that the fund will not be associated with terrorist fund and in
obtaining all this documents it will very expensive which will cost us about US$ 180,000 which
we dont have at the moment so they suggested that the fund has to be moved to Europe
through Diplomatic channel and the information of Povolotski's Brokerage House, LLC will be
used as a conduit in moving the fund to Europe to their offshore payment centre where your
presence will be required to sign out the fund from the Diplomats prior to the fund been
transferred into the companies account in States and the investors representative will be meeting
with you in Europe so that after confirming that the fund is in your possession a Stock certificate
will be issued to him on behalf of the investor.

The situation is that we want to have your input before we can move ahead and if the fund will
have to be moved to the UK or Switzerland for the banking transaction to be effected the
transaction charge here in South Africa will cost us here US$ 28,000 which the investor said that
he will try and pay it and the transaction charges in UK or Switzerland it depend on which country
will be convenient for you will be taking care by you, and I spoke to the diplomats here that will
be moving the fund to Europe to know how much the administrative cost will be he did not give
me a definite answer but he said that it will cost + or- 7,000 Euro.

The second options is that your company has to set up a non resident account here in South
Africa with the services of a financial attorney and setting up the account will cost $ 100 and
activating the account for it to be able to carry the volume of money involved will be $40,000 so
that the US$ 12 Million will be in your account within 48 Hours the account is set up.

We are waiting to hear your input before we can move ahead.

Regards,

Jaulani Modise
