Any changes to the expected timetable will be published or notified to the Shareholders and the Stock Exchange as and when appropriate.
SUPPLEMENTAL UNDERWRITING AGREEMENT IN RELATION TO THE REVISIONS TO THE EXPECTED TIMETABLE
As a result of the revisions to the expected timetable as set out above, on 24 March 2021 (after trading hours), the Company and the Underwriter entered into a supplemental underwriting agreement, pursuant to which the Company and the Underwriter agreed that the timetable for the Rights Issue shall have to be revised to such an extent that certain dates ought to be put off (the “ Extension ”) and to carry out and give effect to the Extension. Save as revised and/or supplemented in the supplemental underwriting agreement, each and every clause, article, section and schedule set out in the Underwriting Agreement shall remain valid and binding, and the Parties shall comply with the same wherever appropriate.
WARNING OF THE RISKS OF DEALING IN THE EXISTING SHARES AND NIL-PAID RIGHTS SHARES
Shareholders should note that the Record Date has remained unchanged and dealings in Shares on an ex-rights basis have already commenced on Tuesday, 16 March 2021.
Shareholders and potential investors of the Company should note that the proposed Rights Issue is conditional upon, among others, the Underwriting Agreement having become unconditional and the Underwriter not having terminated the Underwriting Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof (a summary of which is set out in the section headed “Termination of the Underwriting Agreement” in the Announcement). Accordingly, the Rights Issue may or may not proceed.
3
Any Shareholder or other person dealing in the existing Shares and/or the nil-paid Rights Shares up to the date on which all the conditions to which the Rights Issue are fulfilled or waived (as applicable) (and the date on which the Underwriter’s right of termination of the Underwriting Agreement ceases) will accordingly bear the risk that the Rights Issue may not become unconditional or may not proceed.
Shareholders and potential investors of the Company are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the existing Shares and/or the nil-paid Rights Shares. Any party (including Shareholders and potential investors of the Company) who is in any doubt about his/her/its position or any action to be taken is recommended to consult his/her/its own professional adviser(s).
