It was stated in the Joint Announcement and the Circular that based on the shareholding structure of the Company as at the date thereof, Tai-I BVI and its parties acting in concert will be interested in a total of 195,487,000 Privateco Shares, representing approximately 32.79% of the issued share capital of the Privateco immediately upon Completion and following the Distribution In Specie. The board of directors of the Company and the board of director of Tai-I BVI wish to clarify that due to an inadvertent oversight by Mr. Hsu, the sole director of Tai-I BVI, the disclosure as to the shareholding interest of Tai-I BVI and its parties acting in concert was incorrect.
As at the date of this joint announcement, the shareholding of Tai-I BVI and its parties acting in concert should be 197,177,000 Shares, representing approximately 33.07% of the issued share capital of the Company.
