Macau Property Opportunities Fund Limited

("MPO" or the "Company")

MPO achieves 40% pre-launch sales at The Fountainside

Public launch commences today

Macau Property Opportunities Fund Limited, managed by Sniper Capital Limited, today announces sales progress at The Fountainside, its first residential redevelopment property.

Pre-launch marketing of The Fountainside has to date generated pre-sales of 40% of the standard apartments, at average achieved prices of HK$4,500 (c.US$580) per square foot. This equates to approximately 25% of the project's total saleable area. The majority of buyers are local Macau residents seeking high quality, centrally located residential apartments.

The Company has so far received total deposits amounting to HK$16 million (c.US$2 million) out of total sale proceeds to date of HK$78 million (c.US$10 million).

A staged payment plan is available to buyers: An initial deposit of 10% is payable upon the signing of the Sales & Purchase Agreement; the next two payments of 10% each are due within two and six months respectively; and the balance of 70% is payable upon completion of the project.

Capitalising on this early momentum, MPO is today launching the public sales programme, with the release of ten units. Further updates will be announced in accordance with the project's sales progress.

David Hinde, Chairman of MPO said: "The strong level of interest in The Fountainside reflects the project's sought-after location, its unique design concepts and an increasing demand from Macau residents for high quality residential apartments."
