The Shang Grand Tower Corporation was incorporated on August 20, 2003 as a realty development company. It constructed The Shang Grand Tower, a high rise luxury condominium at the heart of the Makati Commercial Business District.

The Shangri-La Plaza Corporation is not threatened by competition where it is the only truly upscale commercial

SPSI’s competitors are those entities who are into carpark management and operation. SPSI is in a healthy financial position and has the expertise to efficiently and viably operate its carpark facilities.

The Issuer, as with the SPI Parking Services, Inc., by the nature of their businesses have no direct obligation to comply with environmental laws. As for the Shangri-La Plaza Corporation and The Shang Grand Tower Corporation (for its developments, The Shang Grand Tower and The St. Francis-Shangri-La Place) the costs of its compliance with environmental laws is not significant given the overall operational costs. h. The Issuer has 68 employees to date and does not anticipate adding to said number significantly in the next 12 months. The breakdown as to type is as follows:

a. Rank and file - 16 b. Supervisory - 23 c. Managerial - 14 d. Executive - 8 e. Project based - 7

8 None of the Issuer’s nor its subsidiaries’ employees are covered by Collective Bargaining Agreements.

(xv) The major risks faced by Issuer and its subsidiaries in its different lines of businesses are as follows:

a. Mall operations (of SLPC)

The Shangri-La Plaza Mall faces competition from adjoining malls in the Ortigas area, as well as other high-end malls in Makati. The Mall staff keeps a close eye on the developments and marketing programs of there other malls to ensure that they can respond quickly. A lot of emphasis is placed on maintaining the facilities of the Mall and improving these to ensure that patrons have an enjoyable stay at the Mall. In addition, the Mall’s tenant mix is constantly being reviewed to ensure that customers have a wide variety of choices.

b. Office leasing operations (of KSA Realty Corporation, 52.90% owned by Issuer)

KSA Realty Corporation owns and operates The Enterprise Center (TEC). TEC faces competition in the office leasing market from adjoining buildings in Makati. However, because of its superior facilities, TEC has been able to maintain its premium image in the market. TEC occupancy level remains high at 95% despite stiff competition.

c. Leasing to the Edsa Shangri-La Hotel (by the Issuer)

The Issuer receives regular rental income based on sales from the Edsa Shangri-La Hotel. At times, this income is affected if the Hotel’s occupancy goes down due to events affecting worldwide travel and tourism. The Hotel has shown resiliency, however, and has been able to bounce back quickly from these situations. The recent renovation of the Hotel’s rooms and restaurants should further improve the Issuer’s income.

d. Parking Operations (by SPI Parking Services Inc.)

The major risk to the parking operations is the proposal to prevent commercial establishments from charging parking fees. This will result in chaos and confusion in the parking operations since nothing will prevent car owners in adjoining buildings from using the car park facilities in the complex to the detriment of legitimate mall and hotel patrons. The Company is making representations against this measure in coordination with other mall operators.

e. Residential Condominium Sales

The Issuer’s residential condominium projects face competition from other major developers such as Ayala Land and Megaworld. The Issuer is able to compete effectively be offering condominium units that are superior to the other projects in terms of their amenities, design and layout, finishes and professional building management. To date, all of the units in The Shang Grand Tower Project in Makati have been sold, while The St. Francis – Shangri-La Place is more than 83% sold.

After due hearings on arbitration and the submission by the Parties of their respective memoranda, the Arbitral Tribunal, in its Decision dated 31 July 2007, ruled that BF is entitled to an award of only P46,905,987.79, while Issuer is entitled to an award of P8,387,484.06.

The Group’s Gross Revenue decreased by P81.8M or 4.9% in 2006 to P1,587.4M from P1,669.1M in 2005. This is mainly due to:
