OWNED SUBSIDIARY OF KEJURUTERAAN ASASTERA BERHAD (“KAB”)

1. INTRODUCTION

On behalf of the Board of Directors of SCB ("Board"), Thinkat Advisory Sdn Bhd wishes to

conditional share purchase agreement with KEH (“SPA”) for the proposed disposal of 300,000
ordinary shares in PT IME (“Sale Shares”), representing 100% equity interest, to KEH
(“Proposed Disposal”).

The Proposed Disposal will be satisfied via two components, the first being a cash consideration
of RM10,000 (“Cash Component”) and secondly, the settlement of debts, liabilities and
shareholders’ advances of PT IME capped at RM74.99 million (“Debt Component”) in the
manner as set out in Section 2 of this Announcement.

The Cash Component and Debt Component will collectively be referred to as the “Completion
Amount”.

PT IME is the owner and operator of a mini hydroelectric power plant known as PTLM Lae Kombih
3 located in North Sumatera, Indonesia (“Mini Hydro”). Further details on the Proposed Disposal
are set out in the ensuing sections. The salient terms of the SPA are detailed in Appendix I of
this Announcement.

2. DETAILS OF THE PROPOSED DISPOSAL

The Proposed Disposal entails the disposal of SCB’s entire equity interest in PT IME of 235,000
ordinary shares representing 78.3% equity interest in PT IME, together with 65,000 ordinary
shares representing 21.7% equity interest held by Tiopan Hasudungan Marpaung (“Tiopan”),
Parulian Marpaung and Subari Rudi (collectively, the “Minority Shareholders”) to KEH for an
aggregate cash consideration of RM10,000. Premised on this, the portion of the Cash
Component attributable to SCB is approximately RM7,833.

As part of the terms of the SPA, SCB and the Minority Shareholders (collectively the “Vendors”)
have agreed that SCB shall act as the authorized representative with authority to bind the Minority
Shareholders in relation to matters pertaining to the SPA.

KEH has also undertaken to cause the settlement of up to RM74,990,000 being the Debt
Component which comprises the following:

(i) the current outstanding loan facility from Bank of China Malaysia Berhad (“BOC”) obtained
by PT IME (“BOC Loan”) pursuant to a facilities agreement between BOC and PT IME
dated 19 January 2016 as amended by a restructuring agreement dated 30 November
2020, in accordance with the redemption statement to be issued by BOC;

(ii) the amount equal to the accounts payable and accrued expenses (including those due to
related parties and liabilities for taxes) and other liabilities of the Company that would be
reflected as liabilities on a balance sheet of the Company prepared in accordance with the
accounting policies (including consistent application of policies in respect of provisioning,
classification between short-term and long-term liabilities and management estimation),
and the financial statements of PT IME as at the unconditional date of the SPA
(“Completion Accounts”), save and except the BOC Loan and the Shareholders’
Advances (as defined below) (“Total Liabilities”); and

(iii) the amount of monies advanced and/or loaned by SCB to PT IME (“Shareholders’
Advances”).

In the event that the Mini Hydro is able to achieve a net export energy output of 61.13GWh within
one year of the date the SPA becomes unconditional (“Target Production”), a sum of
RM3,000,000 being the earned out profit sum (“Earned Out Profit”), shall be payable to SCB. In
the event the Mini Hydro is unable to achieve the Target Production, the Earned Out Profit shall
be deemed waived by SCB. The Earned Out Profit does not form part of the Completion Amount.

For illustration purpose, the breakdown of Completion Amount based on the outstanding amounts
as at 18 July 2022, being the latest practicable date of this announcement (“LPD”) is set out
below:

Law and Human Rights of the Republic of Indonesia. As at the LPD, PT IME has an issued share
capital of IDR30.0 billion comprising 300,000 ordinary shares in PT IME (“PT IME Shares”).

PT IME operates a Mini Hydro in District of Pakpak Bharat, North Sumatera, Indonesia with an
installed capacity of 11 megawatts. On 23 September 2010, PT IME signed a Power Purchase
Agreement (“PPA”) with PT Perusahaan Listrik Negara for the installation, operation and
maintenance of the Mini Hydro. Under the PPA, PT IME was required to design, finance, develop,
own and operate an 8-megawatt hydroelectric power plant for a period of 20 years from the
commercial operation date of the plant, which was achieved on 12 October 2021.

The commissioners, directors and major shareholders of PT IME together with their respective

A summary of the financial information of PT IME for the past 3 financial years based on its
audited financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December (“FYE”) 2019, FYE 2020
and FYE 2021 is set out below:

(1) Based on the exchange rate of IDR100:RM0.0297 as published by Bank Negara Malaysia
as at the LPD.

While the commercial operation date of the Mini Hydro was only achieved on 12 October 2021,
revenue was recorded by PT IME in FYE 2019 and FYE 2020 due to the accounting standards
which required PT IME to recognise revenue over time based on the cost incurred method.
Further, the loss after tax incurred during the financial years under review based on the above
were mainly arising from the set-up costs incurred and not capitalised for the Mini Hydro. This in
turn resulted in the decrease in PT IME’s total equity due to the increasing accumulated losses.
The borrowings of PT IME were mainly utilised to finance the construction of the Mini Hydro.

2.2 Information on the Purchaser

KEH was incorporated in Malaysia on 9 April 2021 as a private limited company under the
Companies Act 2016 with its principal activity being investment holding. As at the LPD, KEH has
an issued share capital of RM1.00 comprising one ordinary share.

KEH is a wholly-owned subsidiary of KAB. The directors of KEH and their respective
shareholdings in KEH are set out below:

2.3 Basis and justification of arriving at the Completion Amount

The Completion Amount, which consists of the Cash Component which will be fully satisfied in
cash as well as the Debt Component, was arrived at on a willing-buyer willing-seller basis after
taking into account the following:

(i) the Company’s original cost of investment as well as the carrying cost of its investment in
PT IME of RM7,241,000 as at 31 May 2022, being the date of the Company’s latest
unaudited financial results;

3
(ii) the total shareholders’ advances made by SCB to PT IME as at 31 May 2022, being the
date of the Company’s latest unaudited financial results, amounting to RM101,568,594;

(iii) the unaudited net liabilities of PT IME amounting to IDR48.4 billion (approximately RM14.7
million) as at 31 May 2022;

(iv) the expected future performance of PT IME for the PPA period; and

(v) the rationale for the Proposed Disposal as mentioned in Section 3 below.

2.4 Original cost and date of investment

The original cost and date of investment in PT IME by SCB are set out below:

Date of investment No. of PT IME Shares Investment amount (RM)

23 February 2012 195,000 5,805,000


8 November 2013 40,000 1,436,000
Total 235,000 7,241,000

In addition to the abovementioned investments made by SCB in PT IME, SCB has, as at the LPD,
also advanced a total of RM101,568,594 to PT IME which was utilised for the following:

RM
Construction cost and working capital for the Mini Hydro 74,379,347
Interest charged for shareholder advances 23,008,280
Management fees 4,180,967
Total 101,568,594

Apart from the abovementioned investment and advances, SCB provided a corporate guarantee
in relation to the BOC Loan which will be discharged upon settlement by the Purchaser pursuant
to the SPA.

2.5 Liabilities remaining with the Company

Following the Proposed Disposal, SCB will not retain any liabilities, including contingent liabilities
in relation to PT IME. However, after full settlement of the Debt Component, SCB shall capitalise
any additional advances or debts (if any) up to the Unconditional Date and the remaining
shareholder advances owed by PT IME of approximately RM59.5 million into ordinary shares of
PT IME and this shall form part of the Sale Shares to be acquired by the Purchaser.

3. RATIONALE FOR THE PROPOSED DISPOSAL

SCB and its subsidiaries (“Group”) have been facing continuous losses for the past four (4)
financial years. This strained the Group’s cashflows and its ability to repay its lenders. As part of
the current management’s efforts to restructure the Group’s banking facilities, the Company
applied for assistance from Bank Negara Malaysia’s Corporate Debt Restructuring Committee
and was admitted on 7 August 2019.

The operations of the Group were further affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. As its operations
were not considered essential activities, the Group was prohibited from operating during the
various Movement Control Orders implemented by the Malaysian Government. Even after
operations resumed, the Group was faced with disrupted operational efficiency under strict
standard operating procedures and sub-optimal utilisation of assets. As such, the Group was
unable to generate sufficient cashflow during this period to repay its lenders.

4
SCB and certain of its subsidiaries had entered into restructuring agreements with their respective
lenders including, amongst others, Hong Leong Islamic Bank Berhad (“HLIBB”), AmBank (M)
Berhad (“ABB”) and Bank Muamalat Malaysia Berhad (“BMMB”) (collectively, the “Lenders”)
(“Restructuring Agreements”) wherein the parties thereto have agreed to vary the terms and
restructure the existing facilities with the Lenders in accordance with the Restructuring
Agreements in respect of approximately RM124.59 million debt owing to the Lenders. In
conjunction with the execution of the Restructuring Agreements, SCB entered into an Assets
Sharing Agreement (“Assets Sharing Agreement”) with the Lenders and a trustee wherein the
Lenders have agreed to the settlement terms in respect of the debt owing to the Lenders.

Pursuant to the Assets Sharing Agreement, PT IME was identified as a target for disposal by
SCB with the proceeds going towards the Lenders. Premised on the above, the Proposed
Disposal represents an opportunity for SCB to fulfil its obligations pursuant to the Asset Sharing
Agreement in line with the Group’s efforts to restructure its banking facilities.

4. UTILISATION OF PROCEEDS

The Proposed Disposal is expected to raise gross proceeds of up to RM44.2 million, comprising
the Cash Component attributable to SCB, the Shareholders’ Advances to be received and the
Earned Out Profit if the Target Production is achieved.

For illustration purposes, the use of proceeds is presented based on the following scenarios:

Minimum Scenario : Assuming the Target Production is not met and the Earned Out
Profit is waived by SCB

Maximum Scenario : Assuming the Target Production is met and the Earned Out Profit
is received by SCB

The amount is intended to be utilised by the Group as follows:

The proposed utilisation of proceeds allocated for the repayment of each facility is based
on the Asset Sharing Agreement which stipulates that the proceeds received from the
Proposed Disposal is required to be distributed proportionately between the Lenders
towards their outstanding debts.

(2) Represents the Earned Out Profit to be received subject to the conditions as mentioned in
Section 2 of this Announcement, which will be used to repay any outstanding amount to
the Lenders as per the Asset Sharing Agreement.

5. RISK FACTORS

5.1 Non-completion of the Proposed Disposal

There can be no assurance that all the conditions precedent can be fulfilled and the Proposed
Disposal can be completed within the time period permitted.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, SCB shall endeavor to ensure that the conditions precedent are
fulfilled in a timely manner to facilitate the completion of the Proposed Disposal.

5.2 Non-payment by the Purchaser

The bulk of the payment for the Proposed Disposal will only be received by SCB three (3) months
after the PT IME Shares have been transferred to the Purchaser. As such, there is a risk that
receipt of the funds being delayed or not received notwithstanding that SCB would have already
ceded ownership over PT IME.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, SCB believes that as the Purchaser is a subsidiary of a listed
company, the likelihood of this occurring is minimal. As part of the terms to the Proposed
Disposal, the Purchaser will furnish a corporate guarantee from KAB to guarantee the payment
of the Completion Amount due and payable to the Vendors.

5.3 Performance of the Mini Hydro

As the Earned Out Profit is directly tied to the performance of the Mini Hydro, any factors that
could affect its performance including weather conditions, water flow and turbine performance
will pose a risk to SCB in securing the Earned Out Profit. Besides that, SCB will not be in control
of PT IME during the timeframe given to achieve the Target Performance as the Sale Shares
would have been transferred to KEH upon the completion of the Proposed Disposal.

6. FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF THE PROPOSED DISPOSAL

6.1 Issued share capital and substantial shareholders’ shareholdings
