AMOLEK - Listing Circular

Announcement Type: Listing Circular
Company Name: THE AYER MOLEK RUBBER COMPANY BERHAD
Stock Name: AMOLEK
Date Announced: 07/06/2010

Announcement Detail:
Subject: (I) PUBLIC REPRIMAND ON THE AYER MOLEK RUBBER COMPANY BERHAD
(II) PUBLIC REPRIMAND AND TOTAL FINES OF RM33,000 ON 6 DIRECTORS

Contents: Breach of paragraphs 9.22(1) and 16.11(b) of the Listing Requirements of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad ("LR")


1. Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad ("Bursa Securities") publicly reprimands The Ayer Molek Rubber Company Berhad ("AMOLEK" or "the Company") for breach of paragraph 9.22(1) of the LR. AMOLEK is also required to ensure all its directors and the relevant personnel of the Company attend a training programme in relation to compliance with the LR particularly pertaining to financial statements.
2. Pursuant to paragraph 9.22(1) of the LR, a listed issuer must give Bursa Securities for public release, an interim financial report that is prepared on a quarterly basis, as soon as the figures have been approved by the board of directors of the listed issuer, and in any event not later than 2 months after the end of each quarter of a financial year.

3. AMOLEK had breached paragraph 9.22(1) of the LR for failing to submit the Company's quarterly report for the financial period ended 31 March 2009 ("QR 1/2009") on or before 31 May 2009. The QR 1/2009 was only submitted on 15 July 2009, after a delay of 33 market days.

4. Bursa Securities also found that the directors of AMOLEK had failed to discharge their duties as directors pursuant to paragraph 16.11(b) of the LR in respect of compliance by the Company of its obligations under paragraph 9.22(1) the LR.
Paragraph 16.11(b) of the LR states that a director of a listed issuer must not permit, either knowingly or where he had reasonable means of obtaining such knowledge, a listed issuer to commit a breach of the LR. The directors found to be in breach and the penalties imposed are :- No Directors Penalty 1. Goh Joon Hai
Executive Director Public Reprimand and fine of RM16,500 2. Datin Mariam Prudence Binti Yusof
Non-Independent & Non-Executive Chairman Public Reprimand and fine of RM3,300 3. Soo Yoke Mun
Independent & Non-Executive Director
Chairman of Audit Committee Public Reprimand and fine of RM3,300 4. Dato' Teh Kim Seng
Independent & Non-Executive Director
Member of the Audit Committee Public Reprimand and fine of RM3,300 5. Jasmi Bin Daik
Non-Independent & Non-Executive Director
Member of the Audit Committee Public Reprimand and fine of RM3,300 6. Syed Khalil Bin Syed Ibrahim
Non-Independent & Non-Executive Director
(Resigned on 2 September 2009) Public Reprimand and fine of RM3,300
5. The finding of breach and imposition of the above penalties on AMOLEK and the directors are made pursuant to paragraph 16.17 of the LR upon completion of due process and after taking into consideration all facts and circumstances of the matter including in relation to the directors, the roles and responsibilities of the respective directors in the Company particularly pertaining to the maintenance and preparation of financial statements.

The explanation provided by AMOLEK and the directors for the delay in the submission of the QR 1/2009 which was mainly caused by the illness of the Company's part-time accountant does not absolve the Company's and its directors' obligations to take reasonable efforts and measures to ensure timely submission of the QR 1/2009 which were not undertaken. It is unacceptable for the directors, in the discharge of their obligations under the LR, to only �??hope' and �??believe' the part time accountant will recover to prepare the QR 1/2009 in time. The mere reliance on the situation "improving" and on the executive director to resolve the issue is also unreasonable.
In addition, the Company should have in place the necessary measures to enable the Company to fulfill its obligations under the LR at all times.

AMOLEK and its directors had also represented that the Company's shares had not been traded since April 2006 and as such, no investor nor member of the public was prejudiced by the delay of the QR 1/2009. However, pursuant to the LR, a listed issuer and its directors must still comply with the LR during periods when a listed issuer's securities are suspended from trading.

2. Paragraph 9.16(1)(a) of the LR states that a listed issuer must ensure that its announcement is factual, clear, unambiguous, accurate, succinct and contains sufficient information to enable investors to make informed investment decisions.
Paragraph 16.11(b) of the LR states that a director of a listed issuer must not permit, either knowingly or where he had reasonable means of obtaining such knowledge, a listed issuer to commit a breach of the LR.
3. GPERAK had breached paragraph 9.16(1)(a) of the LR for failing to disclose that the Bond Holder of 3% nominal value of RM90,124,000 Redeemable Secured Bonds ie.

The difference of RM26,124,000 represents a variance of approximately 61.23%. Whilst Bursa Securities did not make a finding of breach against the Company for failing to take into account the Discount in the 4th QR 2008, Bursa Securities has found the Company in breach of paragraph 9.16(1)(a) arising from its failure to disclose the Discount which is material in the notes to the 4th QR 2008.

i. the Company had consistently disclose a previous offer from AmBank in the Company's annual audited accounts for the financial years ended 31 March 2006 and 31 March 2007; and
ii. the Discount which the Company has accepted is clearly different and lower than the previous offer.
4. Bursa Securities also found the directors of GPERAK who were aware of the Discount to be in breach of paragraph 16.11(b) of the LR for permitting knowingly or where they had reasonable means of obtaining such knowledge the Company to commit the above breach.
