Shenzhen, China, April 27, 2011 – Global Pharm Holdings Group, Inc.

(“Shandong Sino-Green”) in Jinan City, Shandong Province.
The joint venture was established between Shandong Global Pharm Co., Ltd., (“Shandong Global Pharm”), a PRC subsidiary of the Company and Jinan Linong TCM Plantation Co., Ltd. (“Jinan Linong”), a PRC company, in Mashan County of Changqing District of Jinan City, Shandong province. The registered capital of Shandong Sino-Green is RMB 10 million (USD $1.53 million). Shandong Global Pharm will invest RMB 9.7 million (USD $1.49 million) and Jinan Linong will invest RMB 0.3 million (USD $0.04 million), which reflect 97 percent and 3 percent of the ownership of Shandong Sino-Green, respectively.

“Establishing a Joint-Venture with a local company in Mashan Town of Changqing District of Jinan City, Shandong Province is the second phase in our plan to develop TCM cultivation base projects,” said Mr. Yunlu Yin, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Global Pharm. “Moreover, this project allows us to obtain high quality TCM herb that is certified with the National Geographical Place of Origin Trademark, which guarantees a higher price premium as well as good quality products.”
Taking advantage of the excellent natural environment for TCM plantation in Mashan Town and the comprehensive technical cooperation agreement between the County Government and the Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicines, Shandong Sino-Green expects to develop a standardized planting base with value-added processing of various TCM products utilized in many fields.
The Company's purpose for engaging in TCM cultivation, TCM herbal processing and research and development of related products is to alleviate the impact on price inflation and maintain stable supply of TCM raw materials. By obtaining TCM herbal related raw materials directly from the place of origin, the Company hopes to enhance its products portfolio, achieve cost savings and create synergies between its plantation base and distribution business units.
