The Company wishes to announce that the Board of Directors (“Board”) of the Company has approved the variation to the utilisation of proceeds raised from the Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) exercise ("Variation") in conjunction with the listing and quotation of its entire issued and paid-up share capital on the Main Market of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad.
As disclosed in the Prospectus dated 28 June 2011 (“Prospectus”), the Company has intended to utilise the balance of approximately RM3.964 million of the proceeds for the funding of future development on Research and Development costs particularly in developing and customising new titles that cover the English language learning and certification programme, Islamic finance learning and certification programme as well as Green IT certification programme.

The Company now wishes to change the utilisation for the Islamic finance learning and certification programme to be earmarked for development and customisation of a new title to oil and gas training and certification.

The Board is of the opinion that the Variation is in the best interest of the Company.

The Variation is not subject to any regulatory or shareholders’ approval.

This announcement is dated 20 November 2013.
