Announcement Detail:
Type: Announcement

Subject: SUNWAY CITY BERHAD ("SUNCITY" OR THE "COMPANY")

PROPOSED INTERNAL REORGANISATION EXERCISE

Contents: On behalf of the Board of Directors of SunCity ("Board"), we wish to announce that the Board is desirous of implementing an internal reorganisation exercise involving:

(a) the sale by SunCity and the acquisition by Bintutara Sdn Bhd (Company No.: 112537-P) ("BSB"), a wholly owned subsidiary of SunCity, of all of SunCity's property development business and undertaking including all assets and liabilities in respect of such property development business ("Property Development Business"); and

(b) the sale by SunCity and the acquisition by Top Magnitude Sdn Bhd (Company No.: 926145-W) ("TMSB"), another wholly owned subsidiary of SunCity, of all of SunCity's property investment business and undertaking including all assets and liabilities in respect of such property investment business ("Property Investment Business").

(collectively referred to as the "Internal Reorganisation").

SunCity has accordingly today entered into a Sale of Property Development Business Agreement with BSB with respect to the Property Development Business ("SPDBA") and a Sale of Property Investment Business Agreement with TMSB with respect to the Property Investment Business ("SPIBA").

The objective of the Internal Reorganisation is to create a corporate structure whereby SunCity will be solely an investment holding company with business operations being streamlined under various entities held by SunCity according to business divisions. This provides greater management flexibility in managing its operations, including facilitating future business arrangements and the development of SunCity's businesses.

The purchase considerations payable by BSB for the purchase of the Property Development Business and payable by TMSB for the Property Investment Business were arrived at on a willing buyer willing seller basis, and shall be such sum equivalent to the net asset values of the assets and liabilities of the Property Development Business and the Property Investment Business as at the completion date of the SPDBA and SPIBA respectively ("Completion Date"), which is to be stipulated in a Completion Statement made up to the Completion Date to be issued by SunCity. The total purchase considerations payable by BSB and TMSB for the Property Development Business and Property Investment Business respectively will be satisfied by way of the creation of inter-company debts due from both BSB and TMSB respectively to SunCity, which are payable on demand by SunCity.

The Internal Reorganisation is conditional upon the following conditions precedent ("Conditions Precedent") being fulfilled:

(a) the consent or approval of the relevant creditors/lender/financiers of SunCity for the disposal of the Property Development Business and Property Investment Business having been obtained (if applicable);

(b) consents from any third parties as may be required in connection with the transfer of the assets and liabilities in respect of the Property Development Business and Property Investment Business in accordance with the provisions of the SPDBA and the SPIBA having been obtained; and

(c) the approvals of any other authorities or parties deemed necessary by the parties to the SPDBA and SPIBA respectively having been obtained.

The SPDBA and SPIBA shall become unconditional on the date when all the Conditions Precedent abovementioned have been fulfilled or waived ("Completion Date").

Upon completion of the Internal Reorganisation, SunCity shall cease its existing property development and property investment operations and become solely an investment holding company.

The Internal Reorganisation is not expected to have any effect on the issued and paid-up capital of SunCity or SunCity's substantial shareholders' shareholdings or any material effect on the earnings, net assets or gearing of SunCity on a consolidated basis.

We wish to highlight that on 24 November 2010, the Board had received a letter from Sunway Berhad (formerly known as Alpha Sunrise Sdn Bhd) ("Sunway") ("Offer Letter") which sets out Sunway's offer to acquire the entire business and undertaking of SunCity as at 24 November 2010, including all assets and liabilities of SunCity ("Offer") upon terms and conditions contained in the Offer Letter. Further details are as set out in the Company's announcement dated 24 November 2010.

Subsequently, as announced on 14 December 2010, the non-interested Directors of SunCity, after taking into consideration, among others, the independent advice of the Independent Adviser, Goldman Sachs (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd ("GS"), have decided to accept the Offer, subject to, inter alia, the approval of the shareholders and relevant authorities, where required. GS has been appointed by the non-interested directors of SunCity to advise the non-interested Directors and non-interested shareholders of SunCity on the proposed disposal by SunCity of its entire business and undertaking, including all assets and liabilities, to Sunway ("Proposed Disposal").

The Offer would not be affected by the Internal Reorganisation and shall continue to apply in respect of all of the business and undertaking of SunCity. Consent has been sought from Sunway for SunCity to conduct the Internal Reorganisation, in view of the restrictive covenants set out in paragraphs 6(ii) and 6(iii) of the Offer Letter. The Internal Reorganisation is a stand-alone exercise to streamline the corporate structure of SunCity and accordingly the Proposed Disposal and the Internal Reorganisation are not conditional upon one another. It is anticipated however that the Internal Reorganisation will be completed prior to the completion of the Proposal Disposal. Upon the completion of the Internal Reorganisation, all the shares held by SunCity in BSB and TMSB shall form part of the business and undertaking and assets and liabilities to be sold and transferred to Sunway as part of the Proposed Disposal.

None of SunCity's directors, major shareholders and/or persons connected to them has any interest, whether direct or indirect, in the Internal Reorganisation.

The Board, after considering all aspects of the Internal Reorganisation, is of the opinion that the Internal Reorganisation is in the best interest of SunCity.

This announcement is dated 17 January 2011.
