together with its BVI subsidiary, CNC Development Ltd. ("China New Cities

registration statement includes audited financial results for the fiscal

Sing Kung is an emerging leader in the planning, construction and
financing of urban infrastructure in China. IAG previously announced the
execution of a definitive stock purchase agreement pursuant to which IAG
will acquire 89.6% of the common stock of Sing Kung. The surviving company
will be China New Cities Development.
Sing Kung's project revenue backlog, which is the total value of all
open contracts less the revenue recognized from these contracts, has grown
dramatically during 2008, signaling continued expansion of its business.
Sing Kung's project revenue backlog as of August 8, 2008 reached $396
million, up from $60 million on December 31, 2007. Based on contract
schedules, $191 million will be recognized as revenues prior to the end of
2009, with the balance scheduled to be performed in subsequent years.
To increase its capability to meet reporting and compliance
requirements following the consummation of the prospective business
combination with IAG, Sing Kung appointed Yong Xu as Chief Financial
Officer, effective August 1, 2008. It is anticipated by both companies that
Mr. Xu will continue as CFO of China New Cities Development following
consummation of the proposed transaction. Mr. Xu is a citizen of China and
a Certified Public Accountant in the United States. He previously worked
for Deloitte & Touche LLP in its United States audit practice, as well as
having held positions as a senior financial executive for GWA Capital
Partners LLC and Metro-Goldwyn Mayer Inc. in the United States. Mr. Xu
holds an MBA from Pepperdine University and BA from Shanghai International
Studies University.
