| Description | S P SETIA BERHAD (19698-X) ("S P SETIA" or "THE COMPANY") PRIVATISATION AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENT OF MALAYSIA, SYARIKAT TANAH DAN HARTA SDN BHD AND SENTOSA JITRA SDN BHD RELATING TO THE DEVELOPMENT AND CONSTRUCTION OF THE KOMPLEKS INSTITUT PENYELIDIKAN KESIHATAN BERSEPADU ("1NIH COMPLEX") FOR THE MINISTRY OF HEALTH IN EXCHANGE FOR 51.568 ACRES OF DEVELOPMENT LAND LOCATED ALONG JALAN BANGSAR, KUALA LUMPUR |
1. ������� INTRODUCTION Reference is made to our announcement dated 17 January 2011 in relation to the proposed development of an integrated health and research institute (“1NIH Complex”) for the Government on a piece of land in Setia Alam by way of land swap for a piece of land located along Jalan Bangsar, Wilayah Persekutuan. The Board of Directors of S P Setia (“Board”) wishes to announce that on 29 November 2012, Sentosa Jitra Sdn Bhd (Company No. 505210-V) (“SJSB”), which is 50% owned by S P Setia, entered into a Privatisation Agreement with the Government of Malaysia (“Government”) and Syarikat Tanah dan Harta Sdn Bhd (Company No. 298678-H) to undertake the development and construction of a new 1NIH Complex on a piece of land in Setia Alam, Selangor by way of land swap for a piece of land along Jalan Bangsar, Kuala Lumpur (“Exchange Land”). The 1NIH Complex will be situated on a parcel of freehold land located within the Group’s fast-growing Setia Alam township development (“Project Land”). The Project Land measuring approximately 41.115 acres is currently vacant and free from any lien, pledge, mortgage, security interest, lease, charge, easement or any other encumbrances. Please refer to the attached location plan for details of the Project Land and Exchange Land. 2. ������� DETAILS OF SJSB SJSB is a private limited company incorporated in Malaysia under the Companies Act, 1965 on 11 February 2000. The present authorised share capital is RM1,000,000.00 comprising 1,000,000 ordinary shares of RM1.00 each. of which 500,000 ordinary shares are issued to S P Setia and the remaining 500,000 are issued to Mekar Gemilang Sdn Bhd (“MGSB”) and are fully paid up. The principal activities of SJSB are property development and property investment holding. 2.1������ Information on MGSB MGSB is a private limited company incorporated in Malaysia under the Companies Act, 1965 on 12 December 1994. The present authorised share capital is RM500,000.00 comprising 500,000 ordinary shares of RM1.00 each of which 300,000 ordinary shares are issued and fully paid up. The principal activity of MGSB is investment holding. 3. ������� DETAILS AND SALIENT TERMS OF THE PRIVATISATION AGREEMENT 3.1�� ��� 1NIH Project and Contract Sum SJSB shall carry out for the Ministry of Health the planning, design, management, development, construction, interior design, landscaping, equipping, installation, testing and commissioning of the 1NIH Project comprising:- i) ���� A fully integrated health and research institute to be known as the 1NIH Complex on the Project Land; ii)���� Twenty-four (24) units of apartments on part of the Exchange Land measuring approximately 0.8 acres in replacement of existing residential units which are currently situated on the Exchange Land (“Apartments”);� and iii)��� A polyclinic and dental clinic on part of the Exchange Land to be known as the Klinik Kesihatan Bangsar (“KKB”); for a total amount of RM845,000,000/- (“Contract Sum”). The construction works for the INIH Complex in Setia Alam and KKB in Bangsar shall be for a duration of 36 months and 48 months respectively from its construction commencement dates. 3.2������ Conditions Precedent The Privatisation Agreement is conditional upon, inter-alia, the following being fulfilled within 9 months from the date of the Privatisation Agreement:- (a)���� the transfer of the Project Land to the Government in the name of the Federal Land Commissioner; (b)���� the submission to the Government of a letter of offer evidencing that SJSB has secured the project financing in respect of the 1NIH Project. 3.3������ Government’s Additional Consideration SJSB shall in addition to carrying out the 1NIH Project at the Contract Sum, pay the Government the sum of RM217,114,711, being the minimum guaranteed profit (“MGP”) for the mixed development undertaken by SJSB on the Exchange Land. In the event 20% of the actual profit before tax for the relevant phase of the development is higher than the MGP, SJSB shall pay the Government the sum representing the difference thereof. 3.4������ Exchange Land The Exchange Land measuring approximately 52.368 acres (including 0.8 acres on which the Apartments will be constructed) is made up of the following:- (a)���� Geran No. 42846 for Lot 132, Section 97 in Bandar Kuala Lumpur, Daerah Kuala Lumpur, Negeri Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur measuring approximately 30.369 acres / 122,900 square meters; (b)���� Geran No. 42845 for Lot 368, Section 96 in Bandar Kuala Lumpur, Daerah Kuala Lumpur, Negeri Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur measuring approximately 4.844 acres / 19,604 square meters; (c)���� H.S.(D) 118661 for PT 36, Section 96 in Bandar Kuala Lumpur, Daerah Kuala Lumpur, Negeri Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur �measuring approximately 4.905 acres / 19,850 square meters; and (d)���� The piece of land held under Lot 4429 measuring approximately 12.25 acres / 49,574 square meters. The Exchange Land is located along Jalan Bangsar and it enjoys direct frontage onto and access from the north-western side of Jalan Bangsar at about 3 kilometres south-west of Kuala Lumpur. The adjacent Jalan Travers-Bangsar junction has been upgraded into a flyover and upgrading works has further enhanced accessibility to the Exchange Land. At present, there are several buildings and structures on the Exchange Land. Please refer to the attached location plan. The Government shall cause the Exchange Land to be transferred to SJSB within 14 days of the submission by SJSB to the Government of the bank guarantee to secure the due performance of SJSB’s obligations under the Privatisation Agreement and the issuance of the document of title to the Exchange Land. The Exchange Land will be transferred free from any lien, pledge, mortgage, security interest, lease, charge, easement or any other encumbrances to SJSB on the following terms:- (a)���� under a Registry Title; (b)���� ninety-nine (99) years leasehold tenure; and (c)���� subject to the category of land use “building” and to any express condition and restrictions in interest as may be imposed by the relevant authority. Upon the transfer of the Exchange Land to SJSB, SJSB shall have the right to deal with the Exchange Land as the owner and to develop it in the manner as it sees fit. As this is a privatisation transaction and the Board is familiar with land values in the Bangsar area, there was no independent market valuation conducted on the Exchange Land. SJSB proposes to develop the Exchange Land into an integrated commercial and residential development (“Proposed Development”). The Proposed Development is expected to be funded via internally generated funds and/or bank borrowings, the breakdown of which has not been determined. 5. ������� ECONOMIC OUTLOOK AND PROSPECTS The Malaysian economy recorded a growth of 5.2% (2Q 12: 5.6%) during the third quarter amid the challenging global economic conditions. Domestic demand continued to provide support to growth, supported by the favourable performance of private consumption and investment activity by both the private and public sectors at 11.4% (2Q 12: 14.0%). Growth of private consumption remained firm at 8.5% (2Q 12: 8.8%), supported by favourable labour market conditions and sustained income growth whilst public consumption moderated to 2.3% (2Q 12: 10.9%), attributable to lower spending in supplies and services. Private sector investment was driven by capital spending in the services sector, particularly the transportation, real estate and utilities subsectors and the on-going implementation of projects in the oil and gas sector. For public investment, the capital spending by public enterprises was mainly channelled into the transportation, oil and gas and utilities sectors while Federal Government’s development expenditure was mainly channelled into the transportation, education and public utilities sectors. While the weakness in global economic conditions has affected growth in the third quarter, domestic demand will continued to provide support to growth of the Malaysian economy. Going forward, the more challenging international environment would present risks to Malaysia’s growth prospects. Nevertheless, domestic demand is expected to continue to be the anchor of growth, supported by the expansion in private consumption and investment. Public spending and investment activity are also expected to lend support to growth.

The Privatisation Agreement was negotiated and finalized along the lines of the Public / Private Partnership (“PPP”) concept with the following benefits to the Parties:- Benefits to the Government It enables the Government 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 carried out by 6 key Research Institutes, the Office of the National Institute of Health Director, and various supporting offices / centres. Meanwhile, the inclusion of the Klinik Kesihatan Bangsar as part of the 1NIH Project also ensures that the public which are presently served by the existing dental and polyclinic on the Exchange Land will continue to enjoy this benefit within the new facilities to be constructed by SJSB and integrated into its Proposed Development on the Exchange Land. The land swap nature of the deal means that the Government will not have to fund any part of the cost for the construction of the 1NIH Project. This will be paid for by the difference between the values of the Exchange Land and the Project Land. The Government will also have the opportunity to participate in the redevelopment of the Exchange Land through its share of 20% of the actual profit before tax�as disclosed in item 3.3 above, of which RM217,114,711 constitutes a minimum guaranteed profit committed by SJSB. Benefits to S P Setia The Exchange Land’s size and location in Bangsar is unrivalled in its potential as a mixed development site. The Government’s decision to entrust the development of the 1NIH Project and redevelopment of the Exchange Land to SJSB, an associated company of S P Setia, recognises the Group’s standing as the top Malaysian developer with numerous awards won locally and internationally. Over the years S P Setia has also established a strong execution track record of creating and delivering outstanding value through its many large-scale townships and integrated commercial developments. The success of S P Setia’s flagship development of Setia Alam, where the new 1NIH Complex will be situated is particularly notable.� In less than a decade of its launch, the township and its neighbouring Setia Eco Park, have become highly sought after addresses by home and business owners alike. Both are award-winning developments with Setia Eco Park having won numerous prestigious local and international awards over the years and Setia Alam being recently named winner of the Best Development Master Plan in the FIABCI Malaysia Property Awards 2012. Setia Alam’s many amenities include the Setia City Mall, an international class retail mall with over 700,000 sqft of net lettable area leased to renowned local and global retail players, among them Parksons, Harvey Norman, Golden Screen Cinemas, H&M, Zara, Mango, Padini and a host of other well-known names. A convention centre known as the Setia City Convention Centre capable of seating 2,000 guests was recently opened. The project also has ample and varied educational facilities, including the Tenby International School, Sekolah Sri Tenby at Setia Eco Park, national and national type schools, a badminton academy, residents clubs, large landscaped parks and recreational facilities as well as thriving commercial areas. 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. SJSB has commenced master planning the redevelopment of the Exchange Land where it proposes to develop luxury residential apartments and integrated commercial products such as boutique and strata offices which will appeal to buyers seeking upmarket properties within the affluent Bangsar and Federal Hill areas. Amenities planned include retail, food and beverage facilities as well as a performing arts centre to create a cultural “heart” for the entire development. The estimated Gross Development Value of the Proposed Development is approximately RM8 billion. Whilst it is currently too preliminary to ascertain the exact product mix, total development cost, expected completion date or expected profits to be derived, Management is confident that the Proposed Development will be well received. This augurs well for the Group and is expected to contribute positively to the future earnings and cash flow of S P Setia. 7. ������� EFFECTS OF THE PRIVATISATION AGREEMENT 7.1. ���� Share Capital The undertaking of the 1NIH Project and the Proposed Development envisaged under the Privatisation Agreement will not have any effect on the issued and paid up capital of S P Setia. 7.2 ����� Substantial Shareholders The transactions envisaged under the Privatisation Agreement will not have any effect on the shareholding of the substantial shareholders’ of S P Setia. 7.3 ����� Earnings and Net Assets ("NA") The Privatisation Agreement and Proposed Development are not expected to have any material effect on the S P Setia Group's earnings and NA for the financial year ending 31 October 2013. However, Proposed Development is expected to contribute positively to the future earnings and NA of the S P Setia Bhd Group. 7.4 ����� Gearing The Privatisation Agreement and the Proposed Development are not expected to have any material effect on the gearing of S P Setia for the financial year ending 31 October 2013. 8. ������� PERCENTAGE RATIO The highest percentage ratio pursuant to paragraph 10.02(g) of the Main Market Listing Requirements of Bursa Securities is 15.4% computed based on the audited consolidated financial statement of S P Setia for the financial year ended 30 October 2011. 9. ������� DIRECTORS' AND SUBSTANTIAL SHAREHOLDERS' INTEREST None of the Directors or Substantial Shareholders of S P Setia or persons connected to them has any interest, direct or indirect, in the Privatisation Agreement. 10. ����� DIRECTORS’ STATEMENT The Board after having considered all aspects of the Privatisation Agreement is of the opinion that it is in the best interest of S P Setia. 11. ����� APPROVALS REQUIRED The Privatisation Agreement is not subject to the approval of the shareholders of S P Setia. 12. ����� DOCUMENT FOR INSPECTION A copy of the Privatisation Agreement may be inspected at the registered office of S P Setia at Plaza 138, Suite 18.03, 18th Floor, 138 Jalan Ampang, 50450 Kuala Lumpur during normal office hours on Mondays to Fridays (except public holidays) for a period of 3 months from the date of this announcement.
