Green Dragon Gas Ltd.

The increase in estimated reserves by the Company (primarily at Shizhuang South and Shizhuang North) is based on information recently disclosed by the Chinese parties.

Green Dragon remains in positive dialogue with the Chinese parties, in order to gain further information. As additional material information comes to light, the Company will make further announcements in this regard.

Randeep S. Grewal, Chairman and Founder of Green Dragon, commented:

"The Company in-house engineers have made their best estimates following the receipt of pertinent information from the third parties of their drilling activities. We expect this preliminary information will be further enhanced over the next few months and thereafter audited by Netherland Sewell and Associates at year end, in accordance with our standard practice.

Green Dragon is in constructive dialogue with the relevant parties in order to successfully ascertain the appropriate entitlement over this extensive drilling activity. At this point we are aware that gas production and revenues have been extracted from the blocks and these will be disclosed in a later update following verification. We are committed to resolving this matter amicably but are ready to enforce our rights if needed to ensure appropriate entitlement to Green Dragon shareholders."
