LatinFinance to Hold 2nd Latin America Mid-East Investors Forum on April 26-27, 2010, in Abu Dhabi

MIAMI, January 12 - On April 26 and 27, LatinFinance will hold the 2nd Latin America Mid-East
Investors Forum (LA-MEIF) in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. This unique
conference will connect a delegation of direct and indirect investors based
in the Mid-East with a select group of Latin American companies and funds
offering new and attractive investment opportunities.

This interregional initiative is the only of its kind, and is very timely
considering recent investments and partnerships between the Mid-East and
Latin America. Delegates have two full days to meet and engage with Latin
American executives, and will be enrolled in the LatinFinance 1-1 Meeting
Planner upon registering. Five weeks prior to the event, the 1-1 Meeting
Planner will open for all event attendees to arrange meetings with each
other.

The 1-1 meetings will be complemented by a series of panel discussions
and networking opportunities so that both groups - Mid-East investors as well
as Latin American executives - can learn about each other and what it takes
to get a successful deal done.

Latin American/international delegates to the 2009 LA-MEIF included
representatives from AEI Energy, America Movil, America Petrogas, Baker &
McKenzie, Banco do Brasil, BCP Securities, Bladex, Brazil Capital, Casas GEO,
