Waterbridge, a trading name of Rock Bay Fund Ltd, is a newly founded “Green Business” company with Bio Oil projects, VER Carbon Credit development from rain-forest conservation projects and new Bio Technology development activities as its core business.

The focus and vision of Waterbridge is to develop this broad range of Sustainable Green Business for our common future in order to prevent and even reverse the adverse impacts of economic and industrial activities on the planet. Natural resources, such as coal, oil, or natural gas take millions of years to form naturally and therefore cannot be replaced once consumed will eventually be used up. These non-renewable resources release high levels of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide when they are burnt - a cause of the greenhouse effect.

Waterbridge is dedicated to maintaining lifelong Bio Oil regenerative programs and has as a primary target to develop and operate “Green Oil” farms in cooperation with locals to combine industrial production as the financial source for a food, health and educational project. The fundamental importance of using Bio Oils is that they are good for the planet, as oils are made from oxygen producing/carbon dioxide absorbing plants, as opposed to using non-reusable mineral oil resources.

Waterbridge aims to be a ‘Green’ market leader with definitive goals to develop:

• Sustainable Conservation Projects• Sustainable VER Carbon Credit Projects• Sustainable Bio Oil Projects• Sustainable Bio Farming Projects• Sustainable Green Technology Projects• Green Education programs• Water Projects• Local Industrial production

Carbon Credits and other “Green Certificates” are expected to become the world’s biggest commodity market, eclipsing Oil in the next five years. Right now trillions of GBP, EURO, USD, YEN and other currencies are being spent to secure our Planet’s future... and all resources are on the table including Oil, Natural Gas, Solar and Wind. There is no doubt that this will be a very lucrative product over the coming years and we believe it meets the group ethical policy by supporting Green Business.

Why get involved?

Deforestation of tropical rainforests has a global impact through species extinction, the loss of important ecosystem services and renewable resources, reduction of carbon sinks and the release of carbon emis-sions. In fact, deforestation alone accounts for 20% of the world’s Greenhouse Gas Emissions.

However, this destruction can be slowed, stopped, and in some cases even reversed. Most people agree that the problem must be remedied, but the means are not as simple as ring-fencing the remaining rain-forests. Economic, political, and social pressures will not allow rainforests to persist if they are completely closed off from use and development. This is where Waterbridge and CCC come in.

How we preserve the rainforestThe projects are all run in co-operation with the indigenous peoples. No land is bought from them as we have a strong desire to empower the local people as opposed to exploiting them. It is this mentality which has allowed the projects and operations to flourish and grow and receive acclaim from the local people, local governments and also international governing bodies.

All of the projects are run in conjunction with a holistic conservation standard designed by the Sustainable Growth Group. By integrating agrocrops, food crops, food stock land, conservation areas and generous buffer zones into the project design outlines we create sustainable economies which have real longevity.

VER-CC, Voluntary Emission Reduction–Carbon Credit

Our carbon credit investment opportunity enables you to buy VER carbon credits now at a much reduced cost, with a delivery date set at the end of the project accreditation process. Working in collaboration with the Sustainable Conservation and Conservation Carbon Credit Ltd, we have formulated an open purchasing opportunity with good potential whilst seeking to mitigate as much risk as possible.

Sharing Ethics & Supporting Carbon Reduction businesses Globally

Page 5: Waterbridge Presentation

New global legislation for Businesses means that industries that generate carbon dioxide will have to reduce emissions at source and compensate by other means for the excess

carbon dioxide they produce in order to be more “Carbon Neutral” and reduce their “Carbon Footprint”

Where this is not possible, because of the type of industry, available production technology or technology investments, they need to buy

“Carbon Credit Certificates” This is effectively sponsoring Oxygen generation to compensate for the Carbon Dioxide

and other greenhouse gases they produce that has a direct effect on the planets environment. They will also be motivated to buy and invest in these certificates as it will show on their asset lists, it will show a “Green Company” profile and it can also be tax

beneficial.

How does the carbon cycle sustain renewal naturally?The best way to compensate for the production of carbon dioxide is to sponsor or grow any form of plant life, which by photosynthesis, absorbs carbon dioxide naturally and converts it to Oxygen, naturally restoring the balance and compensating the damage done to our planet by industry.

Page 7: Waterbridge Presentation

To compensate for industrial pollution and the generation of carbon dioxide, the governments of the world have agreed the methodology and systems of measuring and restoring the balance of the planet by ensuring that sufficient green areas of the planet compensate for the equivalent in carbon dioxide.

Each and every business is responsible for making sure it achieves a carbon neutral or as low emission levels as possible, combining technology and Carbon Credits to reach these targets. Additionally the governments of some countries have launched further carbon taxes that will stimulate this process and demand for Carbon Credits.

Where a business cannot reduce emissions, for the time being or maybe only on a longer term, it can now buy Credits from other suppliers who overcompensate.

Carbon Credits are classed as a commodity and as such, they have the ability as any product, to be traded on the open market, under the strict guidelines of the government who certify the jurisdiction in which they are generated and traded.

All of the current global commodities trading platforms are not yet totally on board with the opportunity that trading Carbon Credits and other Green Business will bring. As a result of high demand in today’s global economy searching for environmentally friendly alternatives, our Group of companies has been inspired to launch our new “Green Business Stock Exchange” which will give this project a real and viable trading platform for the exit strategy at the end of the implementation cycle.

XQRADES – is the planned International Stock exchange and trading platform for equities, Forex and commodities with its roots in all types of “Green Business” and productions out of sustainable recourses will be a natural trading platform for these Carbon Credits.

What is a forestry generated VER credit?A forestry generated Voluntary Emission Reduction (VER) credit is a credit derived from the sequestration of one ton of carbon by a forestry project. VERs are voluntary and fall outside of the Kyoto protocol compliance regime, however VERs must represent real emissions reductions compared to the business-as-usual scenario. They must also be sustainable, verifiable and reliable. The VER credits that you will receive are from Sustainable Conservation’s forestry projects. Our strategic business partnership with Sustainable Conservation means that we are able to offer clients VER credits derived from well managed projects, from a truly sustainable company.

The conservation VER credits are issued by using an international approved Methodology, where the conservation program also contains a buffer zone and an industrialized zone used for purposes as logging, Bio Tech programs or food production. It also holds conservation for every living creature in its habitat and around it as well. Animal conservation is an important part of this program as is the social conservation program for the present population and their wellbeing.

These areas are measured, monitored and VER Carbon Credit’s are validated and calculated based on the growth size and conversion of the vegetation in a

given area.

1 x Ton CO2 = 1 x VER-cc

Approximately Analysis of Carbon Quantity

• 1 Mature Tree = 1 Carbon Credit per Year

• 1 Hectare of Rain Forest = 320 Mature Trees

• 1 Hectare of Forest = 200 Mature Trees

Where are these rainforest conservation projects located? Sustainable Conservation Global Pte Limited, is developing projects to create a better standard of living for the indigenous populations and provide them with a sustainable economy that will in turn maintain the natural habitation and forestry, that would otherwise have been destroyed, and generate emission reductions. Conservation Carbon Credits facilitates the education and information of carbon credit products and enables retail and institutional buyers to participate in the carbon credit markets. Sustainable Conservation Global will supply Conservation Carbon Credits with Carbon Credits. These Carbon Credits will be Verified Emission Reductions (“VERs”) for offsetting greenhouse gas emissions, where one VER corresponds to one metric ton of CO2 equivalent. These Carbon Credits will be delivered within the next 18 months and will be forestry originated VERs from rainforest conservation projects, with the initial projects intended to be:

1. Papua Forestry Project, situated in Irian Jaya Province, Indonesia between the Brazza – Eilanden Rivers. The area consists of approximately 250,000ha of natural tropical moist forest between 04° 45’ - 05° 15’ S and 139° 30’ - 45’ E; and 2. Manobo Project, situated in the southern province of Mindanao, Philippines. The area consists of approximately 51,000ha of natural tropical moist forest between 08° 08’ - 08° 15’ N and 125° 20’ - 125° 40’ E and. Additional and / or alternate natural tropical moist forest projects may be used as the projects develop.

The VERs will be Voluntary Carbon Standard Forestry Originated Carbon Methodology or other Forestry Originated Carbon Methodology from other standards, such as the Global Conservation Standard or Carbon Fix Standard. Where used the Voluntary Carbon Standard Methodology is VM0006, Methodology for Carbon Accounting in Project Activities that Reduce Emissions from Mosaic Deforestation and Degradation www.v-c-s.org/VM0006.html, and includes such later versions as may be introduced from time to time.

The wider protection of crops animals and human wellbeing.

The forest itself has a direct impact on the green house effect by supporting the global carbon cycle through photosynthesis. This is further strengthened through the established “Safe-Zone’s” around the forest core which help build a protected eco system by limiting the use of the land around the core. This also supports a highly evolved and advanced eco system in which many protected animals and insects face possible extinction through over de-forestation.

Where human intervention is inevitable, this is now highly restricted and managed to ensure no areas are put under risk from logging and forestry management. This restriction in deforestation bringing a new conservation plan and logging program, supports the safe zone and adds further conservation of the area between the rainforest and industrial area, and the food program.

The International Emissions Trading Association

The International Emissions Trading Association (IETA) is a non-profit organisation to establish a functional international framework for trading in greenhouse gas emission reductions.

IETA have received legal non-profit status from the government of Switzerland and also received United Nations Frame-work Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), a non-governmental organisation accreditation.

Waterbridge both supports and utelizes the framework that the IETA has helped to create, using the methodologies they operate under with international Carbon Credit schemes as our set standard we aim to uphold.

The Business Our business opportunity is to buy a forestry generated VER carbon credit for future delivery. This is an approximately 18 month cycle which is planned for completion by September 2012 or late 2012. The cost at which you can purchase your carbon credit will depend on the accreditation status of the main project (see previous page). The prices are below.

Project Accreditation Status

Type of Project

Anticipated Delivery

Minimum Anticipated Price per Carbon

Certificate

Minimum Anticipated Delivery Price

Certificate Status

Manobo Pre-PIN/PIN Forestry September 2012 £3.20 £6.50 Available

Papau Forestry Pre-PIN/PIN Forestry September 2012 £3.20 £6.50 Available

The value of the carbon credit upon delivery is not something we will speculate on. However, at time of writing, the Forestry Derived VER Credit you will receive would be worth between £6 and £6.50 on the market as it appears in today’s market. It is clear to see that there is a healthy return available regardless of whether or not the market price of VER Credits increases, as analysts suggest, or not.

Project Accreditation ProcessThe accreditation process has been started on a number of projects and will be completed by approved third party independent auditors.

The accreditation process is illustrated in the graph below, which in conjunction with the value graph on the previous page also demonstrates how the value of your initial capital outlay can increase as each stage of the process is completed.

Accreditation should take approx 18 months.

PRE-PIN / PIN - The concept of a carbon offset project is outlined using the “Project Idea Note” (PIN) document. The PIN contains the most important information about the project and a rough estimate of the emissions reduction.

PDD - The PDD (Project Design Document) contains a range of information about the project, including the volume of carbon credits expected over a specific time period. Emissions reductions are compared to a reference scenario and calculated accordingly

Validation - The PDD needs to be checked by an independent institution, in other words, it needs to be validated. During this process, the calculation of emissions reductions, additionally and the monitoring plan are assessed.

Verification - Following successful validation, the project developer makes an application for registration of the project. A third party auditing executive board, decides on the registration.

Issuance - Carbon Credits will be issued, your credits will be assigned to you on our registry. You will then be presented with a choice of exit strategies, be it immediate sale or you may like to hold or retire the credits yourself.

Later we also intend to open a trading facility that makes it possible for owners of VER-CC’s or CCU’s to trade and sell/buy them on this new open platform.

Valu

e £

Page 15: Waterbridge Presentation

This product is available to private individuals and businesses and if you are buying VER-CC’s on behalf of a company this becomes a company asset with a real value and an end market in industry which has an obligation to purchase. Therefore if this Commodity if held by a organisation or business it can be listed as a physical asset bringing a real holding value to the company.

At the end of the validation cycle, this means that the opportunity to grow the fund over the 18 month cycle is a solid and sustainable opportunity for individuals and businesses.

As a company or organisation this asset can also be used as a method to lower your own carbon footprint and demonstrates your company ethic as a Green Business.

Who will sell my carbon credits?Once your official and verified VER-CC has been delivered you have three choices:

1: You may wish to hold onto your credit and choose to sell it at a later date. 2: As it is your property you may sell your credit yourself on the open market. 3: We will sell your credit through existing channels and pass revenue generated back to you the client.

Carbon Credits can also be traded on independent platforms and we will work to find an independent “Green Business” trading platform fit for trading of these certificates, but you can do this yourself or through a broker.

The Waterbridge Carbon Fund will together with all of the Carbon Credit owners decide when to sell and how many to sell at each given time, we also expect these VER carbon Credits to grow reasonably in the future. Any member of the fund can exit to any time of choice after the verification is finalized and official certificates are issued.

How many VER-Carbon Credits are these two rainforest projects verified for? Sustainable Conservation has under development and in full process of 10 rainforest projects, covering areas of more than 7.000.000 HA of land, where today only 15.000.000 VER-CC’s is for sale. The exact numbers of credits will be altered as more projects are verified.

This secures the entire operations if one area should have a situation where the VER-CC’s are no longer according to international standards or any delays in a project should occur.

Carbon Trading • Trading in carbon credits is the safest way to invest in carbon emissions trading schemes.

The way for a company or government to reduce it’s carbon footprint is to invest in carbon credits ensuring demand will increase.

• Carbon credits are a finite resource so as an investment their value can only increase.

• The value of the carbon market has grown from GBP 5.2 million in 2005 and in 2011 is estimated to be GBP 1.23 billion worldwide.

• By investing in carbon credits right now you can expect realistic returns of over 300% when you sell on in 3 to 5 years’ time. Our information pack will advise you how to maximize your profits when selling your investment.

• Waterbridge only deals with officially registered and verified carbon credit brokers.

What drives demand for VERs?Demand for VERs has been gradual and intermittent, but since the beginning of 2010 there appears to have been a shift in this market to more structured growth, facilitated greatly by the development of credible intermediaries such as the Bank of New York, which created a registry for VERs in June 2006, as well as the widespread acceptance of the minimum quality standard embodied by the Voluntary Carbon Standard (VCS), designed by the International Emissions Trading Association (IETA), and non-profit organizations The Climate Group and WWF. The demand for VER is driven by the private sector and organizations with a strong focus on their corporate social responsibility.

Page 18: Waterbridge Presentation
