Conference call today and the presentation will be available on their website after the event. Their share price has been rising on the expectation of positive news and I know by reading some of the posts, shareholders want to know what is happening with the House of Hemp transaction.

Very true. I wonder if DL actually reads what has been written for him, as I can't imagine he does it himself. Quote: "There remains an active and very liquid market for the Group�s shares. The Group is currently finalising a loan agreement facility of R2 million." I wonder where the active and very liquid market is, because I certainly can't see it.

If LGC Capital are updating investors on the House of Hemp transaction, I wonder if DL will find the time to update AfriAg Global shareholders as well. After all, AfriAg SA is a 50/50 partner with LGC and it is our largest investment.

So, we are finally going to get an update on the House of Hemp transaction.

willec, the shares were suspended pending the reverse takeover of SecurLinx. The long stop position has now expired so I would imagine the company will come out of suspension. Polemos are an investment company and have fulfilled their AIM listing requirements. I think some people are just trying to rattle investors nerves for whatever reason.

Kenny, I have posted it on Twitter

Thanks for the link Kenny. Yes, HoH biggest asset.

Kenny, AfriAg SA have clearly gained a lot more contracts, they just haven't told us about them and they don't need too as on paper we only hold a minority share(albeit a big one). AfriAg Global would clearly have to issue an RNS if there was a material change to the value of any of our investments so we can take that as a positive or a negative. Not sure what is holding up the HoH deal, but once it is finalised and everyone is aware of the financial implications for all parties, I am sure we will see further interest here.

JP - I do not have any shares in LGC as I know nothing about the cannabis market. Yes, I have read quite a bit recently, but judging by the wild swings in the share price of listed cannabis companies, I wouldn't have a clue how to value them. The AfriAg Global position is quite unique in that our share price has effectively been discounted since the HoH deal was announced, even though we are not directly involved in the transaction. I think people seem to forget that we are still an investment company and our 40% stake in AfriAg SA has been deemed to be worth less than it was if you use our share price as a guide. From what little we have been told, both AfriAg Marketing and AfriAg SA are performing very well and are in a territory that is ripe for expansion from field to fork. We appear to have directors who have the knowledge and contacts in Africa so one would hope we can take advantage of the opportunity. In theory, the House of Hemp deal should add considerable value to AfriAg SA, which in turn should add considerable value to AfriAg Global and we do not appear to be taking any financial risk. As I said to Kenny the other day, it may be that we have to wait until May(year end results) to find out further information. If the situation has not been made a lot clearer by then, I think a lot of people here will be heading for the exit. Despite the silence, I still remain confident of a successful outcome. I originally invested here to gain an investment in the agri logistics business and its off-shoots and nothing has really changed.

This is the relevant section of the AIM rules, but it does not give a time limit: Rule 40: Suspension The general principle applied by the Exchange when considering requests for a suspension of trading in AIM securities is that interruptions to trading should be kept to a minimum. An AIM company should request a suspension in circumstances where it is required under these rules to make a notification but is unable to comply with its obligations under rule 10 (having used all reasonable endeavours to do so). Any such suspension is at the discretion of the Exchange. The Exchange will not suspend the trading in AIM securities if it is not satisfied that the circumstances justify suspension. Should the Exchange effect the request for suspension, the AIM company must make a notification stating the reason for suspension to the fullest extent possible. An AIM company, while suspended, must continue to comply with these rules. The Exchange may impose conditions on the lifting of suspension as it considers appropriate. Once the circumstances leading to the suspension have been resolved or clarified sufficiently for the AIM company to make a notification that informs the market about relevant matters, such a notification should be made without delay. Restorations are effected by a dealing notice.

You are correct, the six month rule only applies to 'cash shells' and this rule does not apply to Polemos. However, I am unable to find information on how long a company can remain suspended pending a reverse takeover. I will keep looking.

I think there are two dates to consider. Today , if I am correct, marks the expiry of the offer period for SecurLinx and next week marks the expiry of the suspension period. So, one way or the other we are going to hear some news.

Thanks JP. I know that some posters are being very derogatory on BB's in Canada. Some of the accusations appear to be quite slanderous and I am sure DL will be aware of this and will take appropriate action. Looking at the AfriAg Twitter account, some of the comments on there are slanderous as well. DL's lawyers' are going to be very busy.

JP, where about's on twitter is the chat please

Kenny, after holding for so long I would wait until the results are released. I would be very surprised if they have not improved over last year and there should also be an update on the HoH transaction by then as well. DL knows he has to do something, but I also believe he has to do something with AAAP if you analyze the results.

Reading through the terms of the loan to Oyster again this morning. The loan is due to be repaid on the 1st June 2018, so clearly there will be pressure on Oyster to have completed the IPO before that date as they will not have the funds available otherwise. After further consideration, I believe Hamish will have to update the market on the SecurLinx RTO as the current agreement expires tomorrow IMHO.

I keep telling myself that DL got involved with this company for a reason, and that reason is the main market listing. Reading through the report, it appears that a cleaning up exercise has taken place, and the next step is the development and growth stage. A couple of things to highlight for now. The cash position is quite tight at the moment and I found this statement in the notes to the accounts: "Immediately subsequent to the year-end, the Group raised a further �150,000 through the further issue of shares. There remains an active and very liquid market for the Group�s shares. The Group is currently finalising a loan agreement facility of R2 million." The holding company has lent money to DI, so I imagine the loan would enable them to now become self funding given the development of the business and growth in revenues and profit. The other area of interest for me is the acquisition of complementary businesses. DL had this to say: "The Directors� strategy is to develop the business of the Group both organically and by acquisition. It is intended that future acquisitions may be made by the Company that will be complementary to the Group�s businesses and relate to production, transportation and trading of food products in sub-Saharan Africa, including the acquisition of land for food production. The Company has access to a range of prospects through the Directors� extensive contact network and actively reviews acquisition opportunities on an ongoing basis." I keenly await further news on this and feel sure the lure of a main market listing might prove attractive to a couple of companies I can think of who operate in that field.

I think Hamish will have to update the market as the offer period ends then. I am sure it will just be extended and we will stay in suspension, but I could be wrong.
