The total cash consideration amounting to RM35,477,323.00 (Ringgit Malaysia Thirty Five Million Four Hundred Seventy Seven Thousand Three Hundred Twenty Three) (“the Purchase Consideration”).

MHSB is currently a dormant company and its intended principal activity is property development.

PHSB is a private limited company incorporated in Malaysia on 22 May 2007 under the Companies Act 1965. The present authorized share capital of PHSB is RM100,000 comprising 100,000 ordinary shares of RM1.00 each, of which 2 shares have been issued and fully paid-up.

The Purchase Consideration was arrived at based on a “willing-buyer-willing-seller” basis after taking into consideration the development potential of the Land as well as by reference to the current market value of the land in the surrounding area and the location and condition of the Land.

Save for the following Two (2) parcels of the Land which are presently charged to a financial institution, the rest of the Land is currently free from encumbrances:-

(i) HS(M) 2897, PTD 171028, Mukim of Plentong, Tempat of LKTP Cahaya Baru, Daerah of Johor Baharu, Negeri Johor measuring 6.629 Hectares;

(ii) HS(M) 2937, PTD 175231, Mukim of Plentong, Tempat of LKTP Cahaya Baru, Daerah of Johor Baharu, Negeri Johor measuring 8.855 Hectares;

The net book value and original cost of investment of the Land is not made known to the Company at the date of this announcement.

As the Purchase Consideration is on cash basis, the acquisition of the Land will not have any effect on the issued and paid-up capital, substantial shareholders’ shareholdings, net tangible assets and net assets per share of the Company nor will it have any material effect on the earnings per share of the Company for the financial year ending 31 March 2015.

None of the Directors, substantial shareholders and/or persons connected to the Directors and substantial shareholders of the Company, have any interest, direct or indirect, in the acquisition of the Land.

MHSB intends to develop the Land to a mixed commercial and industrial area comprising shop-office and factories. Based on preliminary plans and subject to authorities’ approval for the proposed development and layout plan, the development of the Land is expected to generate an estimated gross development value of approximately RM1.1 billion, which in turn contribute positively to the Group’s future revenue stream and profitability. The estimated Gross Development Cost (“GDC”) and profit before tax

to be derived from the development of the Land are approximately RM771 million, and RM329million respectively.

The rationale for the acquisition of the Land is to enlarge Tiong Nam Group’s existing land banks for future property development projects.

The salient features of the S&P are as follows:

a) MHSB shall pay the Vendor 10% of the Purchase Consideration in cash amounting to RM3,547,732.30 (Ringgit Malaysia Three Million Five Hundred Forty Seven Thousand Seven Hundred Thirty Two And Sen Thirty).

b) The balance of final balance payment of the Purchase Consideration amounting to RM31,929,590.70 (Ringgit Malaysia Thirty One Million Nine Hundred Twenty Nine Thousand Five Hundred Ninety And Sen Seventy) shall be paid within six (6) months from the date of the S&P (“First Payment Date”).

c) The Vendor shall grant an extended period of six (6) months from the First Payment Date with an interest charges calculated at the rate of three per centum (3%) per annum (“Final Payment Date”).

A copy of the S&P dated 20 May 2014 is available for inspection at the Company’s Registered Office at Lot 30462 Jalan Kempas Baru 81200 Johor Bahru, Johor during normal business hours between Mondays to Fridays (except public holidays) for a three (3) months period.

The Local Town Council has yet to assign any postal address on the Land. The Land is Located in Iskandar Malaysia and is in close proximity to surrounding completed mixed housing schemes such as Taman Scientex, Taman Cendana and Taman Pasir Putih. It is connected to Johor Bahru City Centre via the Eastern Dispersal Link (“EDL”), and the Causeway to Singapore via the Coastal Highway. The Land is also easily accessible via Pasir Gudang Expressway and Tebrau Highway.

The Land is sold to MHSB free from all charges, lien and other encumbrances.

The acquisition of the Land is estimated to complete within twelve (12) months from the date of S&P, which is before 20 May 2015.

The Group intends to fund the acquisition and the development cost of the Land through internally generated funds and/or bank borrowings. The exact mix of internally generated funds and bank borrowings will be decided by the management at a later stage after taking into consideration the Group’s gearing level, interest costs as well as internal cash requirement of its business.

The gearing ratio of Tiong Nam Group is expected to increase by 12.20% (derived based on the Purchase Consideration of RM35.48 million and the latest audited total equity

attributable to owners of the Group of RM290.8 million) following the acquisition of the said Land. The Group’s latest audited gearing ratio as at 31 March 2013 is 110%.

Tiong Nam Group did not assume any liabilities, including contingent liabilities and guarantees arising from the acquisition.

The Board has considered the rationale and is of the view that the proposed acquisition of the Land is in the best interest of the Group.

The location and size of the Land is ideal for the long-term strategic growth of the Group. The existing land bank for property development will be enlarged after this lands acquisition.

With the increasing scarcity of land in Johor Bahru, the Group is optimistic of the prospect of the Land. The financial and business prospect of the said Land are subject to certain risks inherent in the property market including changes and developments in political, economic, regulatory, social conditions and increasing competition.

The highest percentage ratio applicable to the above acquisition of the said Land is 12.2%.

The development on Land will commence within six months after the relevant approvals are obtained from the relevant Authorities and is expected to complete within two to five years thereafter.

MHSB has yet to submit any application to any relevant authority for the above Land development.
