Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 29 November 2017 relating to, among others, the proposed issue of the Placed PSCS (the ‘‘Announcement’’). Unless the context otherwise requires, capitalised terms used in this announcement shall have the same meanings as those defined in the Announcement.

 

The Company is pleased to announce that all conditions set out in the Placed PSCS Subscription Agreement have been fulfilled and completion of the issue of the Placed PSCS in the principal amount of US$65 million took place on 14 December 2017. The Company has obtained conditional approval from the Stock Exchange for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the 39,688,654 Placed Conversion Shares and has also received approval from the Singapore Exchange for the listing and quotation of the Placed PSCS. The Placed PSCS are expected to be listed on the Singapore Exchange on 15 December 2017. The net proceeds (after deduction of fees, commissions and expenses) are approximately US$64.2 million.

 

The Placed PSCS have been offered and sold to the following placees:

Assuming full conversion of the Placed PSCS at the initial Conversion Price of HK$12.78, the Placed PSCS will be convertible into 39,688,654 Placed Conversion Shares, representing (i) approximately 0.81% of the issued share capital of the Company on 14 December 2017, and (ii) approximately 0.80% of the issued share capital of the Company as enlarged by the issue of the Placed Conversion Shares (assuming that there is no change in the issued share capital of the Company as at 14 December 2017, save for the issue of the Placed Conversion Shares).
