EXHIBIT A

Encorium Group, Inc. (the “Company”) could not file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Form 10-Q”) for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2011 within the prescribed period without unreasonable effort and expense because during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2011, the Company’s management devoted considerable time and resources to the preparation of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Form 10-K”) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. Management’s efforts related to the preparation of the Form 10-K have required a significant amount of management time and other Company resources that normally would be devoted to the preparation of the Form 10-Q and related matters during this period of time. For the reasons stated above, the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2011 remain subject to review and further analysis at this time.

The Company anticipates that the notes to the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2011 that will be included in the Form 10-Q are likely to contain an explanatory paragraph indicating substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

EXHIBIT B

The Company has not completed its analysis of the expected changes in results of operations for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2011 as compared to the corresponding period ended September 30, 2010 and is unable to provide a narrative and quantitative explanation of these changes at this time.
