The Board of Directors of LIB wishes to announce that Bursa Securities had vide its letter dated 9 November 2010, granted the Company an extension of time until 28 February 2011 to submit the Company's regularisation plan to the regulatory authorities for approval ("the Extended Timeframe") provided that the definitive agreements are signed between the Company and the vendors of the Target Companies (as defined below) on or before 30 November 2010. The decision of Bursa Securities was after due consideration of all facts and circumstances of the case, including the following:
(i) the Company had entered into a Memorandum of Understanding in respect of the acquisition of Unique Diamond Sdn Bhd and H&P Plastic Sdn Bhd ("Target Companies") on 30 August 2010; and
(ii) the Company's representation on the timeline to execute the sale and purchase agreements for the Proposed Acquisition of the Target Companies.
Bursa Securities further decided that the aforesaid extension of time is without prejudice to Bursa Securities' right to exercise its powers under paragraph 8.14C(1) of the Listing Requirements of Bursa Securities ("LR") read together with paragraph 4.1 of Practice Note 29 of the Main Market Listing Requirements to proceed to de-list the securities of the Company in the event:-
(i) the Company fails to sign and announce the definitive agreements with the vendors of the Target Companies on or before 30 November 2010;
(ii) the Company fails to submit the regularisation plan to the regulatory authorities for approval within the Extended Timeframe;
(iii) the Company fails to obtain the approval for the implementation of its regularisation plan and does not appeal within the timeframe (or extended timeframe, as the case may be) prescribed to lodge an appeal;
(iv) the Company does not succeed in its appeal; or
(v) the Company fails to implement its regulatisation plan within the timeframe or extended timeframes stipulated by the relevant authorities.
Upon occurance of any of the events set out in (i) to (v) above, the securities of the Company shall be removed from the Official List of Bursa Securities upon the expiry of seven (7) market days from the date the Company is notified by Bursa Securities or such other date as may be specified by Bursa Securities.
In arriving at the aforesaid decision, the LC had considered, amongst others, the following factors:-
(1) LIB has failed to regularise the Company's financial condition in accordance with paragraph 8.14C of the LR and Practice Note No. 17 ("PN17") and within the extended timeframe granted by Bursa Securities;
(2) All PN17 companies are required to regularise their financial condition and level of operations expeditiously within the timeframes prescribed in paragraph 8.14C of the LR and PN17 or extended timeframes as may be granted by Bursa Securities;
(3) The requirement for companies to have an adequate level of financial condition and level of operations serves to ensure that companies listed on the Official List are of a certain minimum quality. Companies that have a minimum level of financial condition and level of operations serve to preserve and sustain market integrity and investors' confidence; and
(4) In the opinion of the LC, adequate time and opportunity has been accorded to LIB to regularise the Company's financial condition since the Company's First Announcement on 2 May 2008.
