Background information on Sterling Green

Sterling Green commenced trading in November 2003 as a debt management company
aimed at providing financial solutions to individuals who are experiencing debt
problems.

Sterling Green currently offers a range of in-house financial solutions
including tax debt management solutions which are focused on individuals who
owe money to HMRC and who are experiencing difficulties in paying such sums.

Sterling Green has structured its group through the recent incorporation of two
of its subsidiaries, Sterling Green (Insolvency) Limited and Sterling Green
(Mortgages) Limited. The subsidiaries are currently dormant. However, Sterling
Green intends that the IVA (as defined below) and regulated mortgage businesses
will be carried on in Sterling Green (Insolvency) Limited and Sterling Green
(Mortgages) Limited, respectively. This will enable it to provide services
in-house while protecting the integrity of any regulated activities which will
be undertaken (once Sterling Green has obtained the relevant regulatory
approval). Through the use of decision trees and scripted questioning
techniques, Sterling Green's staff are able to assist a client compliantly and
efficiently thereby identifying which service(s) are best suited to a client's
particular circumstances. This approach will allow Sterling Green's group to
benefit from the income from its various proposed financial solutions services
in-house without the need to refer the client elsewhere.
