Prospective investors should be aware of the potential risks of investing in such companies and should make the decision to invest only after due and careful consideration.

Stock Exchange and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM. –ii– DEFINITIONS In this circular, unless the context otherwise requires, the following
