Edge (India)
Private Limited. We amended our Memorandum of Association by means of
a resolution
of Our sharesholders on February 14, 2006 to convert into a public

name on conversion
to a public company, deleted from our name.

Acquistion of Quadrangle

division from Mr. Jeyadev
Parthasarathy, who wasat that time the sole proprietor of the
business, for a consideration of
1546 Equity Shares of our Company. The transfer of these Equity
Shares to Mr. Parthasarathy
was contingent upon him remaining in employment with us for a certain
period, which he failed
to do, and therefore these Equity Shares were never transferred to
him.
