Announcement Details/Table Section:
For
consistency purposes, the abbreviations
and definitions used throughout this
announcement shall have the same
meanings as those previously defined in
ITCB’s announcement dated 18 November
2013 in relation to, amongst others, the
Proposed Acquisitions (“First
Announcement”).
We refer to ITCB’s announcement dated 24
April 2014 in relation to the Proposed
Acquisitions wherein it was stated that
pursuant to the second supplemental SPA
2 dated 23 April 2014 (“Second
Supplemental SPA 2”), ITCB shall
waive the condition precedent stated in
Clause 3.1.2 of the SPA 2 (i.e. Section
2.3(ii), Appendix I of the First
Announcement requiring the grant of
approval by the financial institutions
to ZASB and ZTSB or any party which ZASB
and ZTSB covenanted not to effect a
change of shareholdings without its
prior consent, to the sale by the
Vendors and the purchase by ITCB of the
Sale Shares in accordance with the SPA
2) as the Vendors have paid the
Redemption Amount (as defined in ITCB’s
announcement dated 24 April 2014 in
relation to the Proposed Acquisitions)
on ZTSB’s behalf to Standard Chartered
Bank Malaysia Berhad (“Payment of
Redemption Amount”).
KAF, on behalf of ITCB, wishes to
clarify that the Payment of Redemption
Amount will not have any effects on the
purchase consideration of the Proposed
Acquisitions. Therefore, the Second
Supplemental SPA 2 will not give rise to
any material amendment, modification or
variation to the Proposed Acquisitions
under Paragraph 8.22 of the Main Market
Listing Requirements of Bursa
Securities, hence the approval of the
shareholders of ITCB is not required.
