1
On 14 May 1999, Hotman Paris left Makarim & Taira S. to form his own practice, Law Firm Hotman

Hotman Paris act successfully for PT Lontar Papyrus Pulp & Paper Industry and Indah Kiat
International Finance Company BV and PT Indah Kiat Tbk (SINARMAS GROUP) in two
spectacular cases on international bond issues as reported below in various prospectus of
international bond issue:

"Most recently, in a June 2006 decision that was released in November 2006, the Indonesian
Supr•eme Court affirmed a lower court judgment that invalidated US$500 million of
notes issued through an offshore offering structure similar to that of the Notes and the
Guarantees. The June 2006 decision involved PT Indah Kiat Pulp & Paper Tbk ("Indah
Kiat") as plaintiff and various parties as the defendants using a structure similar to
the issuance of the Notes whereby notes were issued through a Netherlands subsidiary
and guaranteed by an Indonesia company. The Indonesian Supreme Court upheld the
decision of a District defendants (including the trustee, underwriter and security agent for
the issuance of the Indah Kiat notes) committed a tort (perbuatan melawan hukum), and
therefore for the issuance of the notes was null and void. The courts nullified the notes by
reasoning that the contracts made in relation to the notes were signed without any legal
cause, and so did meet the provision of Article 1320 of the Indonesian Civil Code regarding
the validity of an agreement in Indonesia. The Indonesian courts accepted the argument of
the plaintiff's lawyer that Indah Kiat acted as both a debtor and as a guarantor even though
in the facts of the case Indah Kiat International Finance Company BV (its Netherlands
subsidiary established for the purpose of the issuance of the notes) was issuer of the notes and
Indah Kiat was the guarantor of such notes. The Indonesian courts also ruled that the
establishment of Indah Kiat International Finance Company BV was unlawful as it was
intended to avoid withholding tax payments. To date, this is the only case regarding notes
issued through court of highest authority in Indonesia, and its decisions are final and
binding and may only be subject to judicial review where new evidence is submitted.

There can be no assurance that the Supreme Court will undertake any such review, when the
Supreme Court would deliver a decision if it undertakes such review or that any such review
will not affirm the oriqinal Supreme Court decision."
