ADVENTA BERHAD

(Company No. 618533-M) (Incorporated in Malaysia under the Companies Act, 1965)

Registered Office:- 1, Jalan 8 Pengkalan Chepa 2 Industrial Zone 16100 Kota Bahru Kelantan 5 April 2013

Directors Edmond Cheah Swee Leng (Chairman/ Senior Independent Non-Executive Director) Low Chin Guan (Managing Director) Kwek Siew Leng (Executive Director) Toh Seng Thong (Independent Non-Executive Director) Dato’ Dr. Norraesah Binti Haji Mohamad (Independent Non-Executive Director) To: The shareholders of Adventa Berhad Dear Sir/ Madam, PROPOSED RENEWAL OF AUTHORITY FOR SHARE BUY-BACK 1. INTRODUCTION

On 18 March 2013, the Board had announced that the Company proposes to seek the renewal of the authority to purchase its own Shares of up to 10% of the prevailing total issued and paid-up share capital of the Company. The purpose of this Circular is to provide you with the details of the Proposed Renewal of Authority for Share Buy-Back and to seek your approval on the ordinary resolution to be tabled as Special Business at the forthcoming AGM of the Company. SHAREHOLDERS OF ADVENTA ARE ADVISED TO READ AND CONSIDER CAREFULLY THE CONTENTS OF THIS CIRCULAR TOGETHER WITH THE APPENDICES BEFORE VOTING ON THE RESOLUTION PERTAINING TO THE PROPOSED RENEWAL OF AUTHORITY FOR SHARE BUY-BACK AT THE FORTHCOMING AGM.

2. PROPOSED RENEWAL OF AUTHORITY FOR SHARE BUY-BACK 2.1 Details of the Proposed Renewal of Authority for Share Buy-Back

At the AGM held on 26 March 2012, the Company had obtained the mandate from the Company’s shareholders to purchase its own Shares of up to 10% of the prevailing total issued and paid-up share capital of the Company. The aforesaid approval will continue to be in force until the conclusion of the forthcoming AGM which will be held on 29 April 2013.

A new mandate is required from the shareholders of the Company to renew the authority to purchase its own Shares of up to 10% of the prevailing total issued and paid-up share capital of the Company subject to compliance with Section 67A of the Act and any prevailing laws, rules and regulations, orders, guidelines and requirements issued by the relevant authorities including the public shareholding spread as allowed by Bursa Securities. The purchase of Shares will be carried out through Bursa Securities via the stockbroker(s) appointed by the Company. The authority from the shareholders of the Company, if renewed, shall be effective upon passing of the ordinary resolution for the Proposed Renewal of Authority for Share Buy-Back at the forthcoming Tenth AGM and will continue to be in force until:- (a) the conclusion of the next AGM of the Company following the general

meeting at which such resolution was passed at which time it will lapse unless by ordinary resolution passed at that meeting, the authority is renewed, either unconditionally or subject to conditions; or

(b) the expiration of the period within which the next AGM after that date is required by law to be held; or

(c) the authority is revoked or varied by an ordinary resolution passed by the shareholders of the Company in a general meeting,

whichever occurs first (“Proposed Authorised Period”). The Proposed Renewal of Authority for Share Buy-Back will allow the Board to exercise the power of the Company to purchase and/or hold its own Shares at any time within the Proposed Authorised Period using the internally generated funds of the Company and/or external borrowings. The actual number of Shares to be purchased, the total amount of internally generated funds and/or external borrowings involved for each purchase and the timing of the purchase will only be determined later depending on the availability of internally generated funds, the repayment capabilities, the actual number of Shares to be purchased and other relevant cost factors.

In accordance with Section 67A of the Act and any prevailing laws, rules, regulations, orders, guidelines and requirements issued by the relevant authorities, the number of Shares to be purchased and timing of the purchase will depend on the market conditions and sentiments of the share market together with, inter-alia, the amount of funds (share premium and/or retained profits) and financial resources available to the Company. In the event that the Company intends to purchase its own Shares using external borrowings, the Board shall ensure that the Company shall have sufficient funds to repay the external borrowings and that the repayment would have no material effect on the cash flow of the Company. The Board may deal with the Purchased Shares in accordance with Section 67A of the Act in the following manner:- (a) cancel the Purchased Shares; and/or (b) retain the Purchased Shares as Treasury Shares for distribution as dividends

to the shareholders and/or to be resold on Bursa Securities in accordance with the rules of Bursa Securities and/or to be subsequently cancelled; and/or

(c) retain part of the Purchased Shares as Treasury Shares and cancel the

remainder.

2.2 Quantum

Based on the issued and paid-up share capital of the Company of RM53,475,019 comprising 152,785,770 Shares as at LPD, the number of Shares that can be purchased is up to 15,278,500 Shares representing approximately 10% of the issued and paid-up share capital of the Company. The actual number of Shares to be purchased by the Company pursuant to the Proposed Share Buy-Back, the total amount of funds involved for each purchase and the timing of the purchase(s) will depend on inter-alia, the market conditions and sentiments of the share market as well as the availability of financial resources of the Company and the availability of the share premium and/or retained profits of the Company.

2.3 Funding In compliance with Paragraph 12.10(1) of the Listing Requirements, the maximum amount of funds to be utilised for the Proposed Share Buy-Back shall not exceed the aggregate of the share premium and/or retained profits of the Company or both, subject to compliance with Section 67A of the Act and any prevailing laws, including compliance with at least 25% of its total listed shares (excluding Treasury Shares) or such lower percentage of shareholding spread as may be allowed by Bursa Securities, as required by Paragraph 8.02(1) of the Listing Requirements. The details of the share premium and/or retained profits of Adventa are as follows:- (I) (II)

Company Level Audited

FYE 2012After

the Disposal

After I and the Capital

Reduction and Repayment

RM RM RM Share premium 43,026,232 43,026,232 4,829,789Retained profits 4,167,148 203,571,508 4,950,007 Total 47,193,380 246,597,740 9,779,796

Based on the above, the Company shall allocate an amount not exceeding RM9,779,796 (being the total of the share premium and/or retained profits after the completion of the Disposal and Capital Reduction and Repayment) in accordance with Paragraph 12.10(1) of the Listing Requirements and Section 2.2 of Part A of this Circular for the Proposed Share Buy-Back. The Proposed Share Buy-Back would allow the Board to exercise the power of the Company to purchase its own Shares at any time within the time period mentioned in Section 2.1 of Part A of this Circular, using internally generated funds and/or external borrowings. The Board will ensure that Adventa has sufficient funds to repay the external borrowings and that the repayment will not have a material effect on the cash flow of the Company. The amount of the funds to be utilised would only be determined later depending on the actual number of Shares to be purchased, the availability of funds at the time of purchase(s), the market conditions and sentiments of the share market.

2.4 Public Shareholding Spread

The Company will not undertake any Proposed Share Buy-Back if that will result in breach of Paragraph 8.02(1) of the Listing Requirements, which requires the Company to maintain a public shareholding spread of at least 25% of its total listed shares (excluding Treasury Shares) or such lower percentage of public shareholding spread as may be allowed by Bursa Securities. The Board is mindful of the public shareholding spread requirement and will continue to be mindful of such requirement when making any purchase of Shares by the Company.

3

As at LPD, the public shareholding spread of Adventa was approximately 55.65%. The effects of the Proposed Share Buy-Back on the public shareholding spread are illustrated as below:-

As at LPD After Proposed

Share Buy-Back Number of Shares purchased - 15,278,500 Percentage of issued and paid-up share capital (%) - 10.00 Issued and paid-up share capital after the Proposed Share Buy-Back 152,785,770 137,507,270 Public shareholding spread (%) 55.65 50.73

The Company would endeavour to ensure that the Proposed Share Buy-Back will not breach Paragraph 12.14 of the Listing Requirements, which states that a listed corporation must not purchase its own Shares if the purchase(s) would result in the listed corporation being in breach of Paragraph 8.02(1) of the Listing Requirements.

2.5 Treatment of Shares Purchased The Board may decide to cancel the Purchased Shares if it is of the opinion that, in the foreseeable future, there are no investment opportunities that would result in an enhanced investment to Adventa and hence the value of the Adventa Shares. If the Purchased Shares are cancelled, the issued and paid-up share capital of Adventa shall be diminished by the cancellation of the Shares so purchased and the amount by which the Company’s issued and paid-up share capital is diminished shall be transferred to a capital redemption reserve. If the Board decides to retain the Purchased Shares as Treasury Shares, it may distribute the Treasury Shares as share dividends to the shareholders and/or resell the Purchased Shares on Bursa Securities and utilise the proceeds for any feasible investment opportunity arising in the future, or as working capital. The treatment of the Purchased Shares to be held as Treasury Shares, either to be distributed as share dividends or resold on Bursa Securities by the Company, or both, or subsequently to be cancelled will depend on the availability of the share premium and/or retained profits. In the event that the Company decides to purchase its own Shares, the Company will announce on the day the purchase is made providing details of the description of the Shares purchased, the number of the Shares purchased, the price of each Share or, where relevant, the highest and lowest price paid, the total consideration paid and whether the Shares purchased are either held as Treasury Shares or proposed to be cancelled. In the event that the Company decides to resell the Company’s Treasury Shares, the Company will announce on the day the resale is made providing details of the description of the Shares resold, the number of the Shares resold, the resale price of each Share resold or, where relevant, the highest and lowest resale price paid and the total consideration received. In the event that the Company decides to cancel the Company’s Treasury Shares, the Company will announce on the day the cancellation is made providing details of the number of Treasury Shares cancelled, the date of cancellation and the outstanding and the issued and paid-up share capital of the Company after the cancellation.

4

While the Purchased Shares are held as Treasury Shares, the rights attached to them in relation to voting, dividends and participation in any other distributions or otherwise are suspended and the Treasury Shares shall not be taken into account in calculating the number or percentage of Shares or of a class of Shares in the Company for any purposes including substantial shareholdings, take-overs, notices, the requisitioning of meetings, the quorum for a meeting and the result of a vote on a resolution at a meeting.

2.6 Pricing Pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 12.17 of the Listing Requirements, the Company may only purchase its own Shares at a price which is not more than 15% above the weighted average market price of the Adventa Shares for the five (5) market days immediately before the date of the purchase(s). Pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 12.18 of the Listing Requirements, the Company may only resell the Purchased Shares held as Treasury Shares on Bursa Securities at:- (a) a price which is not less than the weighted average market price of the

Adventa Shares for the five (5) market days immediately before the resale(s); or

(b) a discounted price of not more than 5% to the weighted average market price

of the Adventa Shares for the five (5) market days immediately before the resale provided that:- (i) the resale takes place not earlier than thirty (30) days from the date

of purchase; and (ii) the resale price is not less than the cost of purchase of the Adventa

Shares being resold. 3. POTENTIAL ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF THE PROPOSED RENEWAL OF

AUTHORITY FOR SHARE BUY-BACK The potential advantages of the Proposed Renewal of Authority for Share Buy-Back to the Company and its shareholders are as follows:- (a) The EPS of the Adventa Group would be enhanced (all things being equal); (b) The proposed purchase will result in a reduction of the issued and paid-up share

capital base which will reduce the cash outflow on the dividend payout (all things being equal, i.e. if the Adventa Group was to maintain the same dividend rate);

(c) If the Purchased Shares are retained as Treasury Shares, it will provide the Board an

option to sell the Purchased Shares at a higher price and therefore make an exceptional gain for the Company. Alternatively, the Purchased Shares can be distributed as share dividends to shareholders;

(d) Provides the Company flexibility in achieving the desired capital structure, in terms of

debt and equity composition and size of equity; and (e) Allows the Company to take preventive measures against speculations particularly

when its Shares are under valued which would in turn, stabilise the market price of the Adventa Shares and hence, enhance investors’ confidence.

5

The potential disadvantages of the Proposed Renewal of Authority for Share Buy-Back to the Company and its shareholders are as follows:- (a) It will reduce the financial resources of the Company and may result in the Company

foregoing better investment opportunities in future or, at least deprive the Company of interest income that can be derived from the funds utilised for the Proposed Renewal of Authority for Share Buy-Back; and

(b) As the Proposed Renewal of Authority for Share Buy-Back can only be made out of

the share premium and/or retained profits of the Company, it may result in the reduction of financial resources available for distribution to shareholders in the immediate future.

4. RISK FACTORS OF THE PROPOSED RENEWAL OF AUTHORITY FOR SHARE BUY-

BACK The Board is not aware of any risk factors relating to the Proposed Renewal of Authority for Share Buy-Back which could have a material adverse effect on the business or financial position of the Adventa Group.

5. HISTORICAL SHARE PRICES

The monthly highest and lowest prices of the shares of Adventa as traded on Bursa Securities for the past twelve (12) months from March 2012 to February 2013 are as follows:- Month High Low (RM) (RM) 2012

March (1) 1.60 1.50 April (1) 1.57 1.43 May (1) 1.45 1.30 June (1) 1.50 1.34 July (1) 2.01 1.47 August (1) 1.93 1.79 September (1) 1.85 1.78 October (1) 1.92 1.79 November (1) 1.91 1.87 December (1) 1.97 1.89

6. RATIONALE FOR THE PROPOSED RENEWAL OF AUTHORITY FOR SHARE BUY-BACK

The Proposed Renewal of Authority for Share Buy-Back is expected to potentially benefit the Company and its shareholders in the following manner:- (a) The Company is expected to stabilise the supply and demand of its Shares in the

open market and thereby support its fundamental values; (b) If the Purchased Shares are cancelled, it would enhance the EPS of the Company

and thereby long term investors are expected to enjoy a corresponding increase in the value of their investments in the Company; and

(c) As permitted under Section 67A of the Act, the Purchased Shares may be held as

Treasury Shares and/or resold on Bursa Securities with potential gain without affecting the total issued and paid-up share capital of the Company. Alternatively, the Purchased Shares can be distributed as share dividends to reward the shareholders of the Company.

The Proposed Renewal of Authority for Share Buy-Back is not expected to have any potential material disadvantages to the Company and its shareholders as it will be exercised only after in-depth consideration of the financial resources of the Adventa Group and of the resultant impact on its shareholders. The Board, in exercising any decision on the Proposed Renewal of Authority for Share Buy-Back, will be mindful of the interest of the Company and its shareholders.

7. EFFECTS OF THE PROPOSED SHARE BUY-BACK

On the assumption that the Proposed Share Buy-Back is carried out in full, the effects on the share capital, NA, working capital and EPS of the Company and/or the Group (whichever is applicable) are set out below:- 7.1 Share Capital

The effects of the Proposed Share Buy-Back are dependent on whether the Purchased Shares are cancelled or alternatively retained as Treasury Shares. Based on the assumption that the maximum number of Shares authorised under the Proposed Share Buy-Back are purchased and cancelled, the effect on the issued and paid-up share capital of Adventa would be as follows:-

No. of Shares

Share Capital

RM Issued and paid-up share capital as at LPD 152,785,770 53,475,019 Less: Maximum number of Shares that may be purchased (15,278,500) (5,347,475) Issued and paid-up share capital after the Proposed Share Buy-Back 137,507,270 48,127,544

The Proposed Share Buy-Back will result in the reduction of the Company’s issued and paid-up share capital if the Shares so purchased are cancelled. However, the Proposed Share Buy-Back would have no effect on the issued and paid-up share capital of Adventa assuming all Purchased Shares are to be retained as Treasury Shares, resold or distributed as share dividends to shareholders but the rights attaching to the Treasury Shares in relation to voting, dividends and participation in any other distributions or otherwise are suspended.

7

7.2 NA The effects of the Proposed Share Buy-Back on the NA per Share of the Adventa Group are dependent on the number of Shares which the Company will buy-back, purchase prices of the Adventa Shares at the time of buy-back, the treatment of the Shares so purchased and the funding cost, if any. If all the Adventa Shares so purchased are cancelled, the NA per Share of the Adventa Group is likely to be reduced if the purchase price exceeds the NA per Share of the Adventa Group, whereas the NA per Share of the Adventa Group will increase if the purchase price is less than the NA per Share of the Adventa Group at the time of purchase. For Purchased Shares which are kept as Treasury Shares, upon resale, the NA per Share of the Adventa Group would increase assuming that a gain has been realised or decrease if a loss is realised. If the Treasury Shares are distributed as share dividends, the NA of the Adventa Group would decrease by the cost of the Treasury Shares.

7.3 Working Capital The Proposed Share Buy-Back will reduce the working capital of the Adventa Group, the quantum of which depends on the purchase prices and the number of Shares that would be purchased pursuant to the Proposed Share Buy-Back. For Purchased Shares which are kept as Treasury Shares, upon its resale, the working capital of the Company would increase assuming that a gain has been realised. Again, the quantum of the increase in the working capital would depend on the actual selling price of the Treasury Shares and the number of Treasury Shares resold.

7.4 EPS Assuming that the Purchased Shares under the Proposed Share Buy-Back are cancelled, the Proposed Share Buy-Back may increase the EPS of the Adventa Group. Similarly, on the assumption that the Purchased Shares are treated as Treasury Shares and subsequently resold, the extent of the effect on the earnings of the Adventa Group will depend on the actual selling price, the number of Treasury Shares resold and the effective gain arising. In the event the Purchased Shares are held as Treasury Shares, i.e. neither cancelled nor resold, the effective reduction in the issued and paid-up share capital of Adventa pursuant to the Proposed Share Buy-Back would generally, all else being equal, increase the EPS of the Adventa Group.

7.5 Dividends Assuming the Proposed Share Buy-Back is implemented in full and the Company’s quantum of dividends is maintained at historical levels, the Proposed Share Buy-Back will have the effect of increasing the dividend rate of the Company as a result of the reduction in the issued and paid-up share capital of the Company. The Proposed Share Buy-Back may have an adverse impact on the Company’s dividend, if any, as it would reduce the cash available, which may otherwise be used for dividend payment. Nonetheless, the Purchased Shares may be distributed as dividends to shareholders of the Company, if the Company so decides.

8

8. DIRECTORS’ AND SUBSTANTIAL SHAREHOLDERS’ SHAREHOLDINGS

Based on the Register of Directors’ Shareholdings and Register of Substantial Shareholders as at LPD, assuming that the Proposed Share Buy-Back is implemented in full and that the Purchased Shares are from shareholders other than the Directors and substantial shareholders, the effect of the Proposed Share Buy-Back on the shareholdings of the existing Directors and substantial shareholders of Adventa are set out as below:-

(b) Madam Wong Koon Mei @ Wong Kwan Mooi is a

(c) Ms Low Lean Kwan is a major shareholder of Adventa. She is deemed interested in the Proposed Shareholders’ Mandate by virtue of her family relationships with Mr Low Chin Guan, who is her brother and Madam Wong Koon Mei @ Wong Kwan Mooi, who is her mother.

2.4 Nature of Recurrent Transactions Contemplated under the Proposed

Shareholders' Mandate The Recurrent Transactions which will be covered by the Proposed Shareholders' Mandate and the benefits to be derived from them are the general transactions by the Adventa Group relating to the provision of, or obtaining from, the Mandated Related Party, products and services in the normal course of business of the Adventa Group. The Proposed Shareholders' Mandate is intended to facilitate transactions in the normal course of business of the Adventa Group which are transacted from time to time with the Mandated Related Party, provided that they are consistent with the Adventa Group's normal business practices and policies and are on transaction prices and terms which are not more favourable to the Mandated Related Party than those generally available to the public and are not to the detriment of the minority shareholders of the Company. The details of the nature and estimated value of the Recurrent Transactions in respect of which the Adventa Group is seeking mandate from its shareholders as contemplated under the Proposed Shareholders’ Mandate are as follows:-

Mandated Related Party Nature of Transactions

(1) Estimated Transaction Value

From the AGM to Next AGM

RM’000

Aspion Group (a) Purchases of gloves from the Aspion Group 5,000 (b) Provision of sterilisation and warehouse services to the

Aspion Group (2) 6,500

(c) Sales of non-gloves products to the Aspion Group 500 Total 12,000

13

Notes:- (1) The estimated value of the transactions for the period from the date of the forthcoming AGM to

the date of the next AGM is based on past transactions and/or management estimates and on the assumption that current levels of operations will continue and all external conditions remain constant. Due to the nature of the transactions, the actual value of the transactions may vary from the estimated value disclosed above.

(2) The provision of warehouse services by the Adventa Group to the Aspion Group include,

amongst others, the provision of handling, loading and unloading of the goods and rental of warehouse space for the goods prior to their shipment or delivery. The transaction amount is determined based on the duration and quantity of carton handled by the Adventa Group for the Aspion Group and is charged on monthly basis to the Aspion Group. The warehouse of the Adventa Group is located at Lot 7, Jalan Sungai Pinang 4/3, Taman Perindustrian Pulau Indah (Fasa 2), 42920 Port Klang, Selangor.

Where practical and/or feasible, at least two (2) other contemporaneous transactions with unrelated third parties for similar products and/or quantities will be used as comparison for determining the price and terms offered by/to the Mandated Related Party are fair and reasonable as compared with those offered by/to unrelated third parties. In the event that quotation or comparative pricing from unrelated third parties cannot be obtained, the transaction price will be determined based on those offered by/to other unrelated parties for substantially similar types of transactions to ensure that the Recurrent Transactions are not detrimental to the Adventa Group. There is no amount due to and owing by the Mandated Related Party to the Adventa Group pursuant to the Recurrent Transactions which exceeds the credit terms.

2.5 Review and Disclosure Procedures on the Recurrent Related Party Transactions and Thresholds Authority

The Adventa Group has established various procedures to ensure that the recurrent related party transactions are undertaken at arm's length basis and on normal commercial terms which are consistent with the Adventa Group's normal business practices and policies, on transaction prices and terms not more favourable to the related parties than those generally available to the public and are not to the detriment of the minority shareholders. The review and disclosure procedures with regard to the recurrent related party transactions are as follows:- (a) The Adventa Group will be notified of the related parties and will be required

prior to entering into such transactions to ensure that all the recurrent related party transactions are consistent with the Adventa Group's normal business practices and policies which are not more favourable to the related parties than those generally available to the public and are not to the detriment of the minority shareholders;

(b) The Board and/or the Audit Committee shall review the internal audit reports

which are normally conducted at least once a year to ascertain that the guidelines and procedures established to monitor recurrent related party transactions have been complied with;

(c) Records will be maintained by the Adventa Group to capture all the recurrent

related party transactions which are entered into pursuant to the shareholders' mandate;

(d) The Board and the Audit Committee shall have overall responsibility for the

determination of the review procedures including addition of new review procedures where applicable. The Board and the Audit Comittee may also appoint individuals and committees within the Adventa Group to examine the recurrent related party transactions as they deem appropriate. If a member of the Board or the Audit Committee has an interest, he or she will abstain from any deliberation and decision-making by the Board and/or the Audit Committee in respect of the said transaction; and

14

(e) Disclosure will be made in the Annual Report of the aggregate value of

recurrent related party transactions conducted pursuant to the shareholders' mandate during the financial year.

As for the thresholds authority, the Adventa Group has in place internal charts of authority governing all business transactions. Since the recurrent related party transactions are conducted in the ordinary course of business, these are also covered under the charts of authority as there is no specific formal document in respect of thresholds authority for recurrent related party transactions.

2.6 Statement by Audit Committee

The Audit Committee of Adventa has seen and reviewed the procedures mentioned in Section 2.5 of Part B of this Circular and is of the view that the said procedures are sufficient to ensure that the Recurrent Transactions are not more favourable to Mandated Related Party than those generally available to the public and are not to the detriment of the minority shareholders. The Audit Committee is of the further view that the Adventa Group has in place adequate procedures and processes to monitor, track and identify the Recurrent Transactions in a timely and orderly manner and of which the procedures and processes would be reviewed annually or whenever the need arises.

3. RATIONALE AND BENEFITS OF THE PROPOSED SHAREHOLDERS' MANDATE

The rationale for and benefits of the Proposed Shareholders’ Mandate to the Adventa Group are as follows:- (a) The Proposed Shareholders' Mandate will facilitate transactions with the Mandated

Related Party which are carried out in the ordinary course of business of the Adventa Group and are made on an arm’s length basis and on transaction prices and terms not more favourable to the Mandated Related Party than those generally available to the public and not in the Company’s opinion detrimental to the minority shareholders;

(b) The Proposed Shareholders’ Mandate will enhance the Adventa Group’s ability to

pursue business opportunities which may be of time sensitive in nature and it may not be practical to seek shareholders’ approval on a case-by-case basis before entering into such transactions;

(c) The Proposed Shareholders’ Mandate will allow the Adventa Group more efficient

utilisation of existing resources, prompt delivery and better bargaining power from reliable suppliers; and

(d) The Proposed Shareholders’ Mandate will eliminate the need to make regular

announcements or convene separate general meetings from time to time to seek shareholders’ mandate approval as and when potential Recurrent Transactions with the Mandated Related Party arise, thereby reducing the administrative time and cost in convening such meetings without compromising the corporate objectives and adversely affecting the business opportunities available to the Adventa Group.

4. EFFECTS OF THE PROPOSED SHAREHOLDERS' MANDATE

The Proposed Shareholders' Mandate does not have any effect on the issued and paid-up share capital of Adventa, the shareholdings of the substantial shareholders of Adventa and is not expected to have any effect on the NA, EPS and gearing of the Company and/or the Group (whichever is applicable).

15

5. CONDITIONS OF THE PROPOSED SHAREHOLDERS' MANDATE

The Proposed Shareholders' Mandate is subject to the approval of the shareholders of Adventa at the forthcoming Tenth AGM to be convened.

6. DIRECTORS' AND MAJOR SHAREHOLDERS' INTEREST

Save as disclosed below, none of the other Directors, major shareholders and/or persons connected to them has any direct and/or indirect interest in the Proposed Shareholders’ Mandate. Mr Low Chin Guan is the Managing Director and a major shareholder of Adventa. He is also a Director and an indirect major shareholder of Aspion through his 30% equity interest in the holding company of Aspion, namely Adventa Capital Pte Ltd. Thus, Mr Low Chin Guan is deemed interested in the Proposed Shareholders’ Mandate.

As at LPD, the direct and indirect shareholdings of Mr Low Chin Guan and persons connected with him in Adventa are as follows:-

Direct Indirect Names No. of Shares % No. of Shares %

Low Chin Guan 58,446,552 38.25 (a) 7,960,960 5.21 Wong Koon Mei @ Wong Kwan Mooi 3,460,000 2.26 (b) 62,947,512 41.20 Low Lea Kwan 4,500,960 2.95 (c) 61,906,552 40.52

Notes:- (a) Deemed interested by virtue of the family relationships between Mr Low Chin Guan and

Madam Wong Koon Mei @ Wong Kwan Mooi, who is his mother and Ms Low Lea Kwan, who is his sister.

(b) Deemed interested by virtue of the family relationships between Madam Wong Koon Mei @

Wong Kwan Mooi and Mr Low Chin Guan, who is her son and Ms Low Lea Kwan, who is her daughter.

(c) Deemed interested by virtue of the family relationships between Ms Low Lea Kwan and Mr Low

Chin Guan, who is her brother and Madam Wong Koon Mei @ Wong Kwan Mooi, who is her mother.

Mr Low Chin Guan, Madam Wong Koon Mei @ Wong Kwan Mooi and Ms Low Lea Kwan will abstain from voting in respect of their direct and/or indirect shareholdings in Adventa on the resolution pertaining to the Proposed Shareholders’ Mandate to be tabled at the forthcoming AGM to be convened. In addition, Mr Low Chin Guan, Madam Wong Koon Mei @ Wong Kwan Mooi and Ms Low Lea Kwan have undertaken to ensure that persons connected with them (if any) will abstain from voting in respect of their direct and/or indirect shareholdings (if any) in Adventa on the resolution pertaining to the Proposed Shareholders' Mandate to be tabled at the forthcoming AGM to be convened.
