Mr. Littlewood has nearly four decades experience founding, investing in, raising and structuring capital for, and advising businesses across a wide range of industry sectors and in different geographies, including China, SE Asia, Africa, the Middle East, North and South America.

He holds an Undergraduate and Masters Degree in Law from Oxford University, UK.
Mr Littlewood said: I am delighted to be joining the Company. We will be seeking to identify businesses in health care, education, sustainability, agriculture and related sectors, to invest in and work with."

Expansion Of Business and Proposed Change Of Name
Since the change of control and Board in February,  the Company has been actively looking at expansion and investment opportunities, focusing on businesses operating in the sustainability sector, in particular: health and wellness; education; food and agriculture; sustainable technology; sustainable consumption; and financing solutions.

The Company has entered discussions with, and is currently performing due diligence on, several businesses, with a view to making investments in those businesses once negotiations and due diligence have concluded.  The first proposed investments are in education and land remediation, in the US and China, reflecting the model going forward for the Company of using technology, products and expertise from developed markets and sectors in higher growth emerging markets and sectors, and operating globally.

As part of the Company's expansion, we are bringing in industry and regional specialists for the various divisions and countries where we will be investing and operating. We will also be changing the Company's name to better reflect the Company's activities, and increasing the Company's authorized and issued share capital to fund the new investments and activities.

Simon Littlewood, President, commented: "The sustainable and impact investing sector is one of the fastest growing, as people become increasingly aware of and concerned about the growing impact of climate change both on their lives, and the value of businesses and assets.   But with many of the technologies and projects that can make a positive difference located in Emerging Markets or sectors, or with unproven technology, or too small or long term to meet the needs of institutional and other investors, there has often been a problem matching the capital with the projects and entrepreneurs.  With our teams' decades of experience in both emerging markets and the sustainable sector; the new financing tools that are becoming available as a result of blockchain, cryptocurrency and digitalization of assets; and the huge advancements we are seeing in both the development and deployment of technology, particularly from China's growth and spread into global markets thru the One Belt One Road project, we are seeking to put the Company in a position where it will be able to both take advantage of the opportunities from matching capital with projects, and make a positive difference in line with the UN's SDGs"

OTC listed (stock code: TNPH) Tian’an Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd (the “Company”) is pleased to
announce that it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to acquire a majority stake in a
business focused on the fast growing Chinese education market.
Penguin International Education & Consultancy LLC (“Penguin”), established in the US in 2012,

The Company is currently finalizing due diligence and seeking regulatory and other approvals for
completing the acquisition.
George Liu, co-founder and CEO of Penguin, commented: “The shift in China’s economy has created a
number of opportunities in the Chinese education market. The Government is encouraging people to
develop higher skill levels, and change the emphasis in schools, universities and training centers to
provide students with the skills and experiences they need for the new economy. There is increasing
collaboration between Chinese and overseas education institutions and businesses. I am delighted to
join the Company to help expand its Education Division. With the Company’s presence and teams in
the US and China, and soon Europe, and access to capital and partners, it is in a strong position to
take advantage of the opportunities.”
Simon Littlewood, President, commented: "The education sector is one of the core focuses of
expansion for the Company. Penguin’s management team has significant experience and contacts in
the education sector in China. We look forward to bringing George and his team and businesses into

Emerging Markets and areas where they are needed."
