? The Government's approval-in-principle to the Proposal submitted by SJSB is subject to terms and conditions to be agreed between the Parties and the execution of a formal agreement pertaining thereto.

? SJSB has finalized its design and costing for the new complex based on the MOH's Brief of Requirements and is now ready to commence negotiations with UKAS and MOH based on the Proposal submitted to the Government.

2. STRUCTURE OF THE PROPOSAL

In exchange for the Government land measuring approximately 40.22 acres located along Jalan Bangsar ("MOH Land") SJSB proposes to undertake the following:

? Acquire approximately 55.33 acres of land located in Setia Alam ("BSA Land") from Bandar Setia Alam Sdn Bhd ("BSA"), a wholly owned subsidiary of S P Setia Berhad

? Develop a fully integrated health and research complex to be known as the 1NIH Complex on the BSA Land to relocate the various National Health Institutes ("NIH") and relevant supporting offices / research centres under the MOH's purview which are currently situated on the MOH Land and in various parts of Kuala Lumpur

? Redevelop the MOH Land into an integrated mixed residential and commercial project and provide the MOH / Government with a 20% share of the net profits from the redevelopment


3. INFORMATION ON THE PARTIES

3.1 Information on SJSB

SJSB was incorporated in Malaysia on 11 February 2000 as a private limited company. The present authorized share capital is RM100,000 comprising 100,000 ordinary shares of RM1.00 each of which 4 shares have been issued and fully paid up. SJSB is currently dormant.

3.2 Information on MOH

The MOH is a ministry which is established under the Federal Government of Malaysia.

4. INFORMATION ON THE MOH LAND

The MOH Land is situated 3km southwest of Kuala Lumpur City Centre and is located strategically along Jalan Bangsar. It enjoys direct frontage onto Jalan Bangsar and is accessible from the Kuala Lumpur City Centre by Jalan Parlimen and Lebuhraya Mahameru. Alternatively, it may also be approached from the Federal Highway via Jalan Tun Sambanthan and thereafter Jalan Travers.

5 agencies of the National Institute of Health ("NIH"), which the MOH is responsible for, are currently situated on the Land, namely the NIH Secretariat, Institute of Health Management, Institute of Public Health, Institute of Health System Research and the Institute for Health Behavioural Research.

Please refer to the attached map for location details of the MOH Land.

The Tesco Hypermarket, Setia Avenue shop offices and Eramas shop offices developed by BSA are located a short drive away in the south-westerly direction of the land. Earthworks have been completed however there are no buildings presently within the BSA Land.

Please refer to the attached map for location details of the BSA Land.

6. RATIONALE FOR THE PROPOSAL

The Proposal, details of which are presently being negotiated between SJSB, MOH and UKAS, was mooted by SJSB to the Government along the lines of the Public / Private Partnership ("PPP") concept with the following benefits to the Parties:

Benefits to the MOH / Government

It enables the MOH to reap the value of matured Government land to obtain a fully integrated and modern new 1NIH Complex capable of housing all the relevant national health and research institutes and support functions in a single location within the vibrant, fast-growing and highly accessible township of Setia Alam.

The proposed new 1NIH Complex will serve as a hub and centre of excellence for health research, training and consultation at both the local and global level. This function will be be carried out by 6 key Research Institutes, the Office of the NIH Director, and various supporting offices / centres.

The land swap nature of the deal means that the MOH / Government will not have to fund any part of the cost for the construction of the new 1NIH Complex. This will be paid for by the difference between the current market values of the MOH Land and the BSA Land.

The MOH / Government will also have the opportunity to participate in the redevelopment of the MOH Land through its share of 20% of the net profits from the development.

Benefits to S P Setia

S P Setia has consistently been recognised as the leading property developer in Malaysia, winning the No 1 spot at The Edge Malaysia's Top Property Developers Awards 5 times since the inception of the award, the only developer to have achieved this feat. The Government's decision to entrust the redevelopment of the MOH Land to SJSB, an associate company of S P Setia, along with the choice of Setia Alam as the site of the MOH's new 1NIH Complex, is further affirmation of the Group's standing as the top Malaysian developer.

In just a few short years, both Setia Alam and Setia Eco Park have been successfully developed by S P Setia into much sought after addresses by home and business owners alike. The presence of the 1NIH Complex once completed will further add to the business, academic and commercial vibrancy of both townships in line with the Group's development philosophy of LiveLearnWorkPlay.

Apart from township development, the Group has also made significant inroads into the integrated residential and commercial space with its successful Setia Walk and Sky Residences projects and more recently, the soon to be launched KL Eco City development opposite Mid Valley.

SJSB has commenced master planning the redevelopment of the MOH Land. Its superb location provides a rare opportunity for S P Setia to further showcase its skills in developing luxury residential and integrated commercial products within the affluent Bangsar and Federal Hill areas.


7. FURTHER DETAILS

Further details will be disclosed after definitive and conclusive terms have been agreed upon, and a development agreement entered into by the Parties.
