Subject: Originating Motion No. K25-38 Of 2010-I in the High Court in Sabah And Sarawak at Kota Kinabalu ("the Suit") Innosabah Securities Berhad ("ISB") vs. Sabah Development Bank Berhad ("SDBB")

Contents: ISB, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kretam Holdings Berhad, having entered into a Sale & Purchase Agreement ("S&P Agreement") on 18 December 1996 and having paid RM3,259,165.00 on 30 June 1997 towards the purchase price of three (3) commercial office spaces of a 12-storey building complex agreed to be constructed on a piece of land held under Title Deed No. TL 017526475, District of Kota Kinabalu, State of Sabah measuring approximately in 79,350 sq. ft. ("the Land") by Austral Amalgamated Berhad ("the Developer"), had entered a caveat on the Land when construction had been abandoned by the Developer, which caveat had been renewed every 3 years. The latest renewal was made on 21 January 2010.

SDBB, as Chargee of the Land, had on 27 February 2008 applied to remove ISB's caveat. On 10 February 2009, the Assistant Registrar ("Assistant Registrar") of Lands & Survey ordered that ISB's caveat be maintained. SDBB filed an appeal on 2 March 2009 against the Assistant Registrar's decision and on 28 June 2010, the Director ("the Director") of Lands & Survey ruled in favour of SDBB's appeal, by allowing the removal of ISB's caveat.

The hearing date for ISB's Originating Motion filed on 27 July 2010 to appeal against the Director's decision ("the Appeal") was rescheduled twice from 28 September 2010 to 21 October 2010 and 30 December 2010.

At the hearing on 30 December 2010, the Appeal was dismissed with cost to SDBB as the Respondent, on the grounds that with the termination of the S&P Agreement, ISB's claim against the Developer was a monetary claim and there no longer existed an interest in the Land.
