Under the Disposal, the buyer had retained from the disposal consideration an amount approximate to the contingent liabilities arising from the UNP Plywood Claim.

The Board of Directors wishes to announce that on 11 September 2014, the Kota Kinabalu High Court Deputy Registrar assessed damages payable by SFI to be as follows:

(1) Damages in the sum of RM59,590,106.60 for cancellation of the Extraction and Purchasing Agreement dated 28 June 1993 and 13 August 1993;

(2) Damages in the sum of RM1,430,831.30 being the additional costs for Parcel A logs;

(3) The sum of RM201,165.96 being refund of the excess royalties;

(4) Interest on the said sums at the rate of 8% per annum calculated from the date of service of the writ of summons to the date of the Court of Appeal judgment;

(5) Statutory interest at the rate of 8% per annum from the date of the Court of Appeal judgment to the 28 February 2011;
