We hereby announce that Sunrise has on 23 December 2010 received a letter from CIMB Investment Bank Berhad ("CIMB") (issued on behalf of ULHB) informing us that as at 5:00 p.m. (Malaysian time) on 23 December 2010, ULHB has received transfer for 453,616,278 Sunrise shares, representing 91.57% of Sunrise's issued and paid-up share capital (excluding treasury shares), into its Central Depository System account in connection with the Offer ("Transferred Shares").

Nonetheless, we have been informed that ULHB has not received all the valid acceptances in respect of the Transferred Shares. Accordingly, the acceptance level for the Offer has not reached the requisite threshold for ULHB to invoke compulsory acquisition on all the remaining Offer Shares in accordance with Section 222 of the Capital Markets and Services Act, 2007.

In view that ULHB does not intend to maintain the listing status of Sunrise in the event Sunrise is unable to comply with the shareholding spread requirement of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad ("Bursa Securities") as a result of acceptances received pursuant to the Offer (as set out in Section 4(iii) of the offer document dated 25 November 2010 in relation to the Offer), the trading in Sunrise shares will be suspended upon the expiry of 5 market days from the date of this announcement pursuant to Paragraph 16.02(3) of the Main Market Listing Requirements of Bursa Securities.

A copy of the letter by CIMB (on behalf of ULHB) relating to the above is enclosed herewith.
