Origo Partners PLC

Interim Management Statement for the three month period from

July 1, 2011 to September 30, 2011

This Interim Management Statement by Origo Partners Plc ("Origo" or "the Company") and its subsidiaries ("the Group") relates to the three month period from July 1, 2011 to September 30, 2011 ("the Period").

Highlights from the Period:

·; Unaudited net asset value of US$215.4 million compared to US$225.1 million for the period ending June 30, 2011 due principally to the movement of fair market value of quoted investments and currency movements

·; Unaudited net asset value per share of US$0.72 at the end of the Period compared to US$0.76 per share for the period ending June 30, 2011

·; Total investments of US$26.1 million

·; Net cash position of US$21.4 million

Chris Rynning, Origo's CEO, said:

"The Chinese economy continues to perform in line with our expectations with strong domestic demand supported by robust public finances and as a result we remain committed to our investment strategy. During the Period we made a follow-on investment of US$10 million in China Rice, giving us increased exposure to Chinese consumer markets."

"Our investments in Mongolia continue to progress well, and recent events have shown that the Government remains committed to supporting the equitable development of the country's natural resourcesector. The creation ofKincora Copperin July is particularly exciting for Origo, enabling us to combine our stake in a very promising Mongolian copper/gold project with a very experienced management team and create a listed company that has the potential to deliver significant value."

"During Q3, we continued to build our asset management business through the successful launch of two new, innovative funds targeting Chinese cleantech companies and Mongolia respectively. We continue to develop further asset management opportunities and expect the management of third party investment vehicles to become an increasing part of our business."

1. Resources and Commitments

At September 30, 2011, Origo had cash and cash equivalents of US$24.3 million. Payables to debtors and other liabilities equaled US$2.9 million, leaving the Group with a net cash position of US$21.4 million.

2. Unaudited Net Asset Value

No revaluation of the Portfolio took place during the Period as per Origo's policy to reassess the value of the Company's assets on a bi-annual basis. However, adjusting to reflect the purchase and sale of investments, currency movements and market values in respect of quoted investments, the Company estimates unaudited net asset value at the end of the Period was US$215.4 million (US$0.72/share). The equivalent NAV per share translated into British Sterling at the prevailing exchange rate at the end of the Period was 46.2p compared to 47.2p for the period ending June 30, 2011. The decrease in NAV was due to interest accrued (US$1.0 million) to the zero-dividend convertible preference shares, and the movement of fair market value of quoted investments (US$5.2 million) and currency movements (US$4.5 million).

3. Portfolio composition

In line with the Group's strategy, investments are made predominately in privately held companies across various sectors of China's economy, and in companies and assets with exposure to the Chinese market, with the objective of providing shareholders with above market returns, primarily through capital appreciation. Currently, the Group focuses on two sectors: natural resources (comprising metals, mining and agriculture) and clean tech.

As at September 30, 2011, the Portfolio was carried at the aggregate value (excluding revaluations of unquoted portfolios) of US$240.0 million compared to US$222.6 million for the period ending June 30, 2011. The top ten investments represented 88 per cent of the fair value of the Portfolio, with the top five accounting for 65 per cent.
