    TABLE OF CONTENTS

  • PART 1

    INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY

    1. THE COMPANY TEJOORI Limited (the «Company») is a new

    closed ended investment company. The Com-pany has initially been incorporated in the British Virgin Islands, however, in order to provide inves-tors with a higher level of regulatory oversight it is the intention of the board of directors of the Company (the «Board») to apply to migrate the location of the Company to Guernsey in advance of its admission to trading on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange plc. («Admission»). The Company has been established to invest in ventures worldwide in accordance with the prin-ciples of Sharia. Its share capital is denominated in US dollars and will consist of a single class of ordinary shares (the «Shares»). The investment of the assets of the Company will be overseen by TEJOORI Investment Advisors Limited (the «In-vestment Adviser»).

    It is intended that an application will be made for Admission to take place on or around 30 Novem-ber 2005.

    2. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND POLICY The Company‘s investment objective is to achieve

    long term capital growth through investment in Sharia compliant ventures worldwide. The pros-pect of achieving dividend income will, however, be an equally important consideration in making investments.

    The investment remit of the Company is wide and is not restricted by reference to any market sector or geographic location. Investments may be made in start-up ventures, more mature busi-nesses and/or those whose shares are already publicly traded. There is also no restriction on the amount that might be invested in any one particular opportunity or the percentage that any investment might represent of the investee company. Accordingly, if thought appropriate, the Company could acquire 100 per cent. of an investee business. The Company will also be fl ex-ible in terms of the way in which it makes its in-vestments.

    The Company intends to develop a medium to long term portfolio, with the aim of realising in-vestments (through trade sale or fl otation) when the Board believes the realisation would be in the best interests of the Company, ideally within a three to fi ve year time frame.

    The Company intends to utilise the contacts of its Shareholders and the Investment Adviser to iden-tify suitable investment opportunities and will, if

    appropriate, offer Shareholders the opportunity to co-invest.

    It is possible that, utilising funds being raised now, investments will be made prior to Admission. If so, full details of any such investments will be set out in the AIM admission document published by the Company at the time of Admission.

    3. SHARIA COMPLIANCE AND CHARITABLE DONATIONS Prior to the making of any investment, the rele-

    vant investment will be approved as being Sharia compliant by Dr. Hussain Hamid Hassan, Profes-sor of Sharia & Comparative Law at Cairo Uni-versity. Dr Hassan is President of the Fatwa and Sharia Supervision Boards in the following Islamic Banks and fi nancial institutions: Dubai Islamic Bank, Dubai, First Gulf Bank, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah Islamic Bank, Sharjah, Emirates Islamic Bank, Du-bai, Mashreqbank, Dubai, Al Salam Bank, Sudan, Liquidity Management Centre, Bahrain, Dubai Islamic Insurance Co. (Aman), Dubai, Amlak Fi-nance Co., Dubai and Tamweel Finance, Dubai.

    In addition, Dr. Hassan is a member of the Fatwa and Sharia Supervision Board of the Islamic De-velopment Bank, Jeddah, Vice President of the Islamic International Rating Agency, a member of the Sharia Standards Committee of the Account-ing and Auditing Organization for Islamic Finan-cial Institutions and a member of the Islamic Fiqh Academy of the Muslim World League, Makkah. Dr Hassan acts as legal advisor to the President of Kazakhstan and advisor to the World Islamic League, Jeddah.

    The Company will donate 2.5 per cent. of its net asset value on an annual basis to charities for dis-tribution to social causes. All Shareholders will be given the opportunity on an annual basis to vote on a majority basis for up to a maximum of ten individual charities which will receive 50 per cent. of this amount,. The remaining 50 per cent. will be placed with the TEJOORI Foundation which will be established as a UK registered charity, for the promotion of multi-cultural understanding and building bridges between cultures and coun-tries through educational initiatives.

This additional Guernsey based di-rector is likely to be a representative of the Com-pany‘s administrator, Investec Trust (Guernsey) Limited (the «Administrator»).

    The Board will meet regularly to oversee the ac-tivities of the Administrator and to review the performance of the Investment Adviser. In par-ticular, the Board will retain overall control of the investment policy of the Company and all invest-ments to be made by the Company will require the prior approval of the Board and its Sharia ad-viser to proceed.

    As noted above both Richard Fossett, Patrick Kennedy and Lawrence Elms are interested in the Investment Adviser and consequently should not

    be considered as independent of the Investment Adviser.

    5. INVESTMENT ADVISER The Directors will be responsible for the determi-

    nation of the Company‘s investment policy. The Company will, however, enter into an exclusive investment adviser agreement with TEJOORI Investment Advisors Limited to oversee the in-vestment of the Company‘s assets on a day-to-day basis and to provide various management advisory services to the Company, subject to the overriding supervision of the Board. The acquisi-tion or disposal of any investment will require the approval of both the Investment Adviser and the Board.

    The duties of the Investment Adviser under the terms of the investment adviser agreement, in line with investment guidelines established by the Board, will include the following:

    • identifi cation of investment opportunities;• evaluation and valuation of investment op-

    portunities;• deal structuring and negotiations of terms of

    each investment;• presenting investment opportunities to Dr

    Hussain and the Board for approval;• co-ordination of lawyers and other advisers;• taking board positions in companies invested

    in, monitoring such investments and suppor-ting investee companies as required; and

    • seeking and realising exit strategies for invest-ments.

    Investment Advisory Team To successfully perform these duties, as well as

    complementing the skills of the Board, the In-vestment Adviser has assembled a dedicated management team with relevant experience in investment, fi nance and mergers and acquisi-tions:

  • 6. OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS The following have indicated that they will act in

    the following capacities:

    • AIM Nominated Adviser and Broker: Investec Bank (UK) Limited.

    • UK Financial Adviser: Ghaliston Limited.• Solicitors (as to English law): Lawrence Gra-

    ham LLP.• Advocates (as to Guernsey law): Ozannes.• Lawyers (as to BVI law): Maples & Calder.• Administrators: Investec Trust (Guernsey) Li-

    mited.• Auditors: PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP.• Registrars: Capita IRG (CI) Limited.• Bankers: HSBC.

    7. INITIAL INCORPORATION AND PROPOSED MIGRATION OF THE COMPANY

    For speed of establishment it has been decided to initially incorporate the Company as an exempt International Business Company in the British Virgin Islands («BVI»). In order to give inves-tors a higher degree of ongoing regulatory over-sight, however, the Board intends to apply to the Guernsey Financial Services Commission and the Guernsey Courts for consent to migrate the place of incorporation of the Company to Guernsey. If such application is successful, from the date such consent became effective, the Company would cease to be a BVI incorporated company and would thereafter be treated for all purposes as a Guernsey incorporated company. Potential inves-tors should note that there is no guarantee that any application for migration of the Company to Guernsey will be successful. In the event that any such application was unsuccessful the Company would remain domiciled in the BVI.

    The material provisions of the current BVI memo-randum and articles of association of the Com-pany are summarised in Part 5 of this Agreement. As part of the process of migration it would be necessary for the Company to amend its mem-orandum and articles of association to a form which is consistent with Guernsey law and regu-latory requirements. In order to avoid the formal-ity of seeking Shareholder approval to amend the memorandum and articles of association in connection with a migration application, inves-tors who agree to subscribe for Shares will as part of the terms of subscription grant an irrevocable power of attorney to any Director of the Com-pany to sign a written shareholders resolution on their behalf approving the adoption the a new memorandum and articles of association in such form as may be deemed by the Directors in their

    absolute discretion (but following consultation with the Company‘s Sharia adviser) to be nec-essary to satisfy the requirements of Guernsey law and regulation and to be appropriate for a company whose shares are to be admitted to trading on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange plc.

    8. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST The Investment Adviser may from time to time

    act for other clients which have a similar or dif-ferent investment objective and policy to that of the Company. Circumstances may arise where investment opportunities will be available to the Company which are also suitable for one or more such clients of the Investment Adviser. Where a confl ict arises in respect of an investment oppor-tunity, the Investment Adviser will allocate the opportunity on a fair basis. In such event, the allocations will normally be made on a pro rata basis between the Company and such client(s) based on the amounts available for investment at the time the investment opportunity arises. However, the Investment Adviser will be enti-tled to recommend to the Board the allocation of investment opportunities on a basis otherwise than as set out above if it deems it appropriate. In those circumstances the Board will determine what level of investment the Investment Adviser may make on behalf of the Company.

    9. VALUATION POLICY The net asset value and the net asset value per

    Share will be calculated (and rounded to two decimal places) in USD by the Administrator (or such other person as the Board may appoint for such purpose from time to time) every quarter based on information supplied by the Investment Adviser. It will be announced through the Lon-don Stock Exchange thereafter.

    The net asset value will be the value of all assets of the Company less the liabilities to creditors (in-cluding the provisions for such liabilities) of the Company determined in accordance with the valuation guidelines adopted by the Board from time to time.

    Under current valuation guidelines adopted by the Board, such values will be determined as fol-lows:

    • the value of any cash in hand or on deposit, bills and demand notes and accounts recei-vable, cash dividends and interest declared or accrued as aforesaid and not yet received shall be deemed to be the full amount thereof, un-

    8

  • less in any case the Board will have determi-ned that the same is unlikely to be paid or re-ceived in full, in which case the value thereof will be arrived at after making such discount as the Board may consider appropriate in such case to refl ect the true value thereof;

    • the value of securities which are quoted or dealt in on any stock exchange (including any securities traded on an «over the coun-ter market») will be based on their bid prices (where a bid price is available) or otherwise at fair value based on published price quotations on such stock exchange, or if there is more than one stock exchange on which the secu-rities are traded or admitted for trading, that which is normally the principal stock exchange for such security, provided that any such se-curities which are not freely transferable, or which are not regularly traded, or which for any other reason are subject to limited mar-ketability, will be valued at a discount (the amount of such discount being determined by the Board in their absolute or in a manner so approved by the Board);

    • unquoted securities will be valued at their fair value and where their fair value cannot be re-liably measured such securities will be valued at cost;

    • all other assets (including prepayments) and liabilities to creditors will be valued at their respective fair values as determined in good faith by the Board and in accordance with generally accepted valuation principles and procedures; and

    • any value other than in USD will be translated at any offi cially set exchange rate or approp-riate spot market rate as the Board deem ap-propriate in the circumstances having regard, inter alia, to any premium or discount which may be relevant and to costs of exchange.

    If the Board consider that any of the above bases of valuation are inappropriate in any particular case or generally, they may adopt such other valuation procedure as they consider is reason-able in the circumstances provided that such other valuation or valuation procedure has been approved by the Company‘s auditors. The Board may delegate to the Investment Adviser any of their discretions under the valuation guidelines.

    10. MEETINGS, REPORTS AND ACCOUNTS All general meetings of the Company will be held

    in Dubai. The Company will hold an annual gen-eral meeting each year.

    The annual reports and accounts of the Company will be made up to 30 June in each year with

    copies expected to be sent to Shareholders within the following six months. Shareholders will also receive each year an unaudited interim report for the six months to September. These are expected to be sent to Shareholders within the following six months. The fi rst fi nancial period of the Com-pany will cover the period from incorporation to 30 June 2006.

    The audited accounts of the Company will be prepared under International Financial Report-ing Standards which the Board believe is an ac-ceptable body of generally accepted accounting practice. Under International Financial Reporting Standards, the Company will prepare an Income Statement and a Statement of Changes in Equity which will disclose revenue and capital results in-cluding net investment gains.

    The annual accounts of the Company will be pub-lished with all fi nancials denominated in USD.

    11. DIVIDEND POLICY The Board intend to have an active dividend

    policy. As and when income generated from in-vestments is suffi cient the Directors will consider the distribution of net income in the form of dividends. Dividends are expected to be paid in USD.

    12. FINANCE The Company may, from time to time, use Is-

    lamic complaint structured fi nance facilities for short-term liquidity purposes and, if the Board deem prudent, for longer term purposes. There is no limit on the amount that may be utilised by the Company in this manner.

    13. FURTHER SHARE ISSUES Aside from the obligation to issue Second Sub-

    scription Shares the Company‘s authorised share capital will be such that further issues of shares may be made. Subject to market conditions then prevailing and to all necessary consents and ap-provals being obtained, the Board may decide to make one or more further issues of Shares for cash from time to time. There are no provisions of Brit-ish Virgin Islands or Guernsey law or the current articles of association of the Company providing for pre-emption rights for existing Shareholders on the allotment of further Shares for cash. Unless authorised by Shareholders, the Company will not issue further ordinary shares at a price below the prevailing net asset value per Share unless they are fi rst offered pro rata to existing Shareholders.

    9

  • 14. LIFE OF THE COMPANY Although the Company will not have a fi xed life,

    the Board consider it desirable to give Sharehold-ers the periodic opportunity to review the future of the Company. At the annual general meeting of the Company to consider the Company‘s ac-counts for the fi nancial year ending June 2016 and at every second annual general meeting thereafter, the Board undertake to propose an or-dinary resolution that the Company should con-tinue as presently constituted. If that resolution is not passed, the Board will be required to formu-late proposals to be put to Shareholders to wind up, reorganise or reconstruct the Company.

    15. TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION

    15.1 This Subscription Booklet is being circulated in connection with the offer for subscription of Shares of USD 0.01 in the Company (the «Sub-scription»). Further details of the terms and con-ditions of subscription are set out in Part 4 of this Agreement below (the «Terms»).

    15.2 Potential investors will be given the opportunity to subscribe in USD for Shares at a price per Share of USD 1.00 (the «Initial Subscription Shares»). By so subscribing each investor will also be ir-revocably agreeing to subscribe the same USD amount for further at a price per Share of USD 3.00 (the «Second Subscription Shares») to be paid at a date to be notifi ed by the Company be-ing not later than 26 November 2005. It is a term of the Subscription that no single subscriber shall be entitled to subscribe for more than 8 per cent. of the fi nal total capital of the Company. Follow-ing the closing of the Subscription the Company will calculate the total amount committed for Ini-tial Subscription Shares and Second Subscription Shares (the «First Closing Committed Capital») and shall determine the USD amount being 8 per cent. of the First Closing Committed Capital (the «Top-up Limit»).

    15.3 Investors who have opted to do so (and whose commitment is not already in excess of the Top-up Limit) will then be contacted by the Company and given the option to equalise their subscrip-tion with that of other subscribers by increasing the USD amount subscribed up to the Top-up Limit (the «Top-up Round») the increased to-tal committed capital being known as the «To-tal Committed Capital». If following the Top-up Round the Subscription is still oversubscribed, and any individual subscribers‘ commitments still represent over 8 per cent. of the Total Committed Capital, each such subscriber‘s commitment shall be scaled back in accordance with the Terms.

    PLEASE NOTE THAT IF, HAVING SUBSCRIBED FOR INITIAL SUBSCRIPTION SHARES, YOU FAIL TO SUBSCRIBE FOR ALL OR ANY OF THE SECOND SUBSCRIPTION SHARES FOR WHICH YOU ARE OBLIGED TO SUBSCRIBE THEN, WITHOUT PREJUDICE TO ANY OTHER CLAIMS THE COMPANY MAY HAVE AGAINST YOU, THE COMPANY SHALL BE ENTITLED TO REDEEM ALL YOUR INITIAL SUBSCRIPTION SHARES FOR A NOMINAL AMOUNT.

    16. SUBSCRIPTION AGENT The Company has engaged Kingdom Capital (the

    «Subscription Agent») as subscription agent to act on behalf of the Company in connection with the Subscription. The Subscription Agent shall be entitled to receive a commission from Subscribers of 2 per cent of the money subscribed pursuant to the Subscription. As set out in Part 2 of this Agreement, Subscribers should therefore add an additional subscription commission sum of 2 per cent. to the funds transmitted to the Company. Pursuant to an agreement dated 23 September 2005 between the Company and the Subscrip-tion Agent the Company will pay subscription commissions received to the Subscription Agent.

    NOTES AND RISK WARNINGS

    NotesThis Agreement is not intended to provide the sole or principal basis of any investment or credit decision or any other valuation and may not be considered as a recom-mendation by the Company or any other person in con-nection with an investment in the Company. You should determine your interest in acquiring Shares on the basis of such independent investigations as you consider necessary or desirable.

    The Company does not accept liability for any loss or da-mage suffered or incurred by you or any other person or entity however caused (including negligence) relating in any way to this Agreement including, without limitation, the information contained in it, and errors or omissions caused, to you, or any other person or entity, placing any reliance on this Agreement, it accuracy, completeness, currency or reliability. The Company has not authorised any person to make any statements or representations, which are not expressly contained or contemplated by this Agreement. Any liability of the Company to you or to any other person or entity arising out of this Agreement is, to the maximum extent permitted by law, expressly disclai-med and excluded.

    This Agreement is not intended to, and does not, consti-tute an issue of securities in any place which, or to any person to whom, the making of such an issue would not be lawful under the laws of any jurisdiction. All persons who receive this Agreement must inform themselves of all applicable laws and observe any such restrictions. Failure to comply with any applicable restrictions may constitute a violation of securities laws.

    Neither this Agreement or any of the securities of the Company have been, nor will they be, registered under the United States Securities Act 1933 («Securities Act»), and securities of the Company may only be offered or sold in the United States to a US Person (as defi ned in Rule 902 under the Securities Act) under exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any ap-plicable securities laws of any state of the United States.

    An investment in Shares involves a high degree of risk. Ac-cordingly, you should consider carefully the risks attaching to an investment in the Company, including, in particular, the risks described below, prior to making any investment decision. The information below does not purport to be an exhaustive list or summary of the risks which the Com-pany may encounter and is not set out in any particular order of priority. You should consider carefully whether an investment in the Company is suitable for you in the light of the information in this Agreement and the fi nancial re-sources available to you.

    The Company‘s fi nancial condition or operations could be materially and adversely affected by the occurrence of any

    of the risks described below. In such case, following Ad-mission, the market price of the Shares could decline due to any of these risks and you could lose all or part of you investment. Additional risks and uncertainties not present-ly known to the Directors, or that the Directors currently deem immaterial, may also have an adverse affect on the Company.

    RISK WARNINGSMigration to GuernseyAlthough the Company intends to make a formal applica-tion to the Guernsey Financial Services Commission and the Courts in Guernsey to migrate the place of incorpo-ration of the Company from the British Virgin Islands to Guernsey there is no guarantee that such application will be successful. In the event that any such application for migration were unsuccessful the Company would remain domiciled in the British Virgin Islands.

    Liquidity of the Shares and the AIM market generallyThe Shares will, until Admission, be unquoted securities and will therefore be highly illiquid (and in any event will be subject to the sales restrictions in arrangements set out in paragraph 7 of Part 4 above).

    Following Admission it may be more diffi cult for you to re-alise any investment on AIM than to realise an investment in a company whose shares or other securities are quoted on the Offi cial List. The AIM Rules are less demanding than those of the Offi cial List. An investment in a share that is traded on AIM is likely to carry a higher risk than an investment in a share quoted on the Offi cial List. AIM has been in existence since June 1995 but its future suc-cess and liquidity in the market for the Shares cannot be guaranteed. The share price of publicly traded emerging companies can be highly volatile.

    The price at which the Shares will be traded following Ad-mission, and the price at which you may realise any in-vestment, will be infl uenced by a large number of factors, some specifi c to the Company and its investments and some which may affect companies generally. Admission to AIM should not be taken as implying that there will be a liquid market for the Shares particularly as, on Admission, the Company will have a limited number of Shareholders. The Company is aiming to achieve capital growth and, therefore, Shares may not be suitable as a short-term in-vestment. Consequently, the Share price may be subject to greater fl uctuation on small volumes of Shares, and the Shares may be diffi cult to sell at a particular price. The market price of the Shares may not refl ect the underlying value of the Company‘s net assets.

    Investor returnsThere can be no guarantee that the Company‘s investment objective will be achieved. The Company‘s ability to achie-ve its investment objectives may be adversely affected in

    23

  • the event of signifi cant or sustained changes in market re-turns or volatility. You should regard an investment in the Company as long-term in nature and you may not recover the full amount initially invested or any amount at all.

    As with any investment in companies, the Company‘s in-vestments may fall in value with the maximum loss on such investments being the value of the investment and, where relevant, any gains or subsequent investments made.

    Investment strategyThe success of the investment strategy followed by the Investment Adviser depends upon its success at correctly interpreting market data. No assurance can be given that the strategy to be used will be successful under all or any market conditions.

    Political and economic riskA number of the Company‘s investments are likely to be situated in jurisdictions to which a higher degree of political and economic risk attaches than to investments situated in more established jurisdictions. Although the Company will seek to protect against such risk through the use of suitab-le insurance cover, where appropriate and economically viable, changes may occur in the political, economic, fi scal and legal systems of such jurisdictions which might affect the ownership or operation of the Company‘s invest-ments, including, inter alia, changes in exchange control regulations, ownership of assets, changes of government and changes in legislative or regulatory regimes. There is no guarantee that future changes in legislation would not affect the Company retrospectively.

    Calculation of Net Asset Value and lack of liquidity in underlying investmentsIn calculating the net asset value, and the net asset value per Share, the Administrator, will rely on valuations of the Company‘s assets supplied by the Investment Adviser. In valuing the Company‘s assets, the Investment Adviser will adopt a valuation methodology as set out in Part 1 of this Agreement. In relation to unquoted securities, which will form the majority if not all of the Company‘s investments, these will be valued at their fair value and where their fair value cannot be reliably measured such securities will be valued at cost. There can be no guarantee that any such investments will ultimately be realised at any such valua-tion. In addition, the unquoted nature of the Company‘s investments may mean that they may be diffi cult to realise in a timely manner or at all.

    Concentration of investmentsThe Company‘s investment portfolio is expected to be re-latively concentrated both in terms of geographical area and in terms of industry sector and accordingly should be regarded as representing a higher risk than a more diver-sely invested fund. Underperformance or failure of one or more of the investments may have an adverse effect on the value of the Company.

    CompetitionA large number of private equity houses, institutions and other investors have become active in seeking private equity investments. Competition for a limited number of attractive investment opportunities may lead to a delay in investment of the Company‘s assets and may increase the price at which investments can be made, thereby reducing the Company‘s potential profi ts.

    Currency riskYou should be aware that the Directors intend that the Company‘s portfolio will as far as possible be US Dollar denominated investments and intend that all monies re-turned to the Shareholders will also be denominated in US Dollars. Investors seeking to convert their US Dollar deno-minated returns into any other currency may be subject to currency fl uctuations and the volatility of returns that will result from such currency exposure.

    Key personnelThe ability of the Company to achieve its investment ob-jective is signifi cantly dependent upon the expertise of the Investment Adviser and its ability to attract and retain sui-table staff. The Company is also reliant upon the skills of its Directors and the loss of any of these persons could reduce the Company‘s ability to achieve its planned investment objectives. The Company and the Investment Adviser have endeavoured to ensure that the principal members of their management teams are suitably incentivised, but the retention of such persons cannot be guaranteed.

    YOU SHOULD THEREFORE CONSIDER CAREFULLY WHETHER AN INVESTMENT IN THE COMPANY IS SUIT-ABLE FOR YOU, IN LIGHT OF THE RISK FACTORS OUT-LINED ABOVE, YOUR PERSONAL CIRCUMSTANCES AND THE FINANCIAL RESOURCES AVAILABLE TO YOU.
