Trip Tech, Inc. Acquires China-Based Global Shipping Company That Launched “Shipping Online,” China’s Largest Shipping Industry On-Line Portal

Through Further Development of Its On-Line and Off-Line International Shipping Services and Logistics It Aims to Lead Transformation of Traditional Shipping Industry; 2007 Annual Revenues of Acquired Company Grew to $70.3 Million, While Year Over Year Net Profit Climbed 200% to $21.4 Million

DALIAN, CHINA–(EMWNews – August 13, 2008) – Trip Tech, Inc. (OTCBB: TPTQ), a “blank

check” company, announced today completion of a share exchange, through

which it acquired SkyAce Group Limited, a comprehensive, modern

international shipping company having its world headquarters based in

China. The Company is mainly engaged in a comprehensive range of

international shipping and logistics services such as bulk cargo

transportation, chartering, shipping agents, logistics, ship trading, spare

parts supplies, crew recruitment and shipping porter operation, as well as

relevant industry news and data analysis and advertising.

The Company’s core business is international bulk cargo transportation. It

has an ocean shipping fleet with 13 vessels, with self-owned carrying

capacity of nearly 200,000 tons; at the same time, through monthly voyage

charter and time charter, the Company can provide carrying capacity of

about 1,000,000 tons with shipping lines to major ports around the world.

The company also owns and operates China’s largest shipping portal,

“Shipping Online,” which is accessed on the internet at

http://www.sol.com.cn. Significantly, this China shipping industry leading

website functions not just as an information provider, but as a business

platform providing on-line and off-line international shipping and

logistics services, such as bulk cargo chartering, container booking,

shipping agents, ship trading and building, spare parts supplies, crew

recruitment as well as shipping news and data. Its experienced off-line

team assists in providing a full range of these services at branches

throughout China

In 2007, annual revenues of the acquired operations, primarily driven by

the growth in its chartering brokerage business and the uptrend in the

global shipping market, grew to $70.3 million compared with $59.2 in the

prior fiscal year, while net income grew nearly 200% from $7.4 million at

year end 2006, to $21.4 million as of Dec. 31, 2007.

In the first quarter of 2008, ended on March 31, 2008, revenues were

$26,035,927, up 44% from the same prior year period, while net income

reached $ 6,837,088, an 89% increase over the comparable period in 2007

without consideration of the gain from discontinued operation. The

increases stemmed primarily from increased revenues in its marine

transportation and chartering brokerage business.

Mr. Li Honglin, who founded the shipping company in 1993, has been

appointed President of Trip Tech and a Director, and Ms. Xue Ying has been

appointed a Director and Chief Executive Officer and Secretary of the

Company.

According to Mr. Li, “We believe we are now in a unique position to not

only grow our internet-based company, but also to become the leader in

transforming the shipping industry from its traditional business model, to

a dynamic, modern business model. As a public company, however, with

potential access to additional capital, I believe it is possible for us to

continue to increase our growth, through steady expansion of our capacity,

enlarging the size of our fleet, and pushing forward our comprehensive

shipping and logistic services with our industry leading portal, Shipping

Online.”
