RESULTS OF THE OPEN OFFER OF CONVERTIBLE NOTES WITH AN ORDINARY SHARE ALTERNATIVE
Reference is made to (1) the announcement of the open offer of Paladin Limited (the “ Company ”) dated 26 September, 2014; (2) the open offer offering document of the Company dated 29 October, 2014 (the “ Offering Document ”) and (3) the announcement of the results of the open offer dated 20 November, 2014 (the “ Results Announcement ”). Unless otherwise stated, capitalised terms used herein shall have the same meanings as defined in the Offering Document.
UPDATE PROGRESS REGARDING THE APPLICATIONS ON EAFs
Further to the Results Announcement, the Company is still in discussion with the Stock Exchange regarding the treatment of the applications on EAFs which are for in excess of 100% of the entire amount of Ordinary Shares available for subscription in the Open Offer. Accordingly, no allocations have been made in respect of applications on EAFs.
While the Board is seeking to resolve the concerns on the excess applications, in order not to prejudice applicants the Board has determined to allow applicants on EAFs who wish to do so to withdraw their applications, and the application money sent with those applications will be refunded on application, by writing to the Company at Suite 2304, 23rd Floor, Sun Life Tower, The Gateway, Harbour City, Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, Hong Kong.
