Purpose of Transaction
     
 
Effective July 1, 2013, Prescient Fund SP and the Issuer entered into a Private Placement Subscription Agreement (the “July Subscription Agreement”), in which Prescient Fund SP subscribed to purchase the 13,888,888 shares of Common Stock from the Issuer and effective December 24, 2013, Prescient Fund SP, Newmark and the Issuer entered into a Private Placement Subscription Agreement (the “December Subscription Agreement”), in which Prescient Fund SP subscribed to purchase the 3,333,333 shares of Common Stock from the Issuer.  The shares were offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, under Sections 4(2) and 4(6) thereof, and Regulation D, Rule 506 and Regulation S, as applicable, promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
 
Under the July Subscription Agreement, the parties agreed that:
 
· the Issuer’s board of directors (the “Board”) would be expanded by the addition of two members nominated by Prescient Fund SP;
 
· future changes in the Board would be subject to Prescient Fund SP’s approval;
 
· the Issuer would sell or spin-off its wholly-owned subsidiary, Carbon Strategic Pte Ltd., a Singapore corporation;
 
· the name of the Issuer would be changed to “Oakridge Energy Technologies, Inc.”;

· the funding would be used to implement an agreed upon business plan and working capital.
 
Effective July 1, 2013, the Issuer increased the size of the Board from two to four members and appointed two new directors, Tomokazu Oishi and Bryan Urban, who were nominated by Prescient Fund SP pursuant to the July Subscription Agreement.  Messrs. Oishi and Urban resigned from the Board effective November 11, 2013.

Each of the Reporting Persons disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock of the Issuer held by Newmark.
