HO HUP CONSTRUCTION COMPANY BERHAD ("Ho Hup" or "the Company")
- PETITION BY ZEN COURTS SDN. BHD. IN RELATION TO ITS 30% SHAREHOLDINGS IN BUKIT JALIL DEVELOPMENT SDN. BHD.

Reference is made to the announcements dated 25 May 2011, 8 August 2011, 28 September 2011, 12 October 2011, 28 March 2012, 24 May 2012, 18 July 2013, 16 August 2013, 20 February 2014 and 7 March 2014.

As so announced:

1. On 19 February 2014, the Court of Appeal had dismissed, with costs, the appeals to the Court of Appeal by Zen Courts Sdn Bhd (“Zen Courts”) against the Order dated 18 July 2013 of the High Court.  The High Court had ordered (among other matters) that the Company buys the 4,500,000 ordinary shares in, comprising 30% of the share capital of, Bukit Jalil Development Sdn Bhd (“BJD”) at the purchase price of RM35.97 million (the “Purchase Price”), and (by the consent of both these parties) with interest from the date of that Order (18 July 2013) to the date payment was to be made. In effect, Zen Courts had appealed to further review the valuation report of and cross-examine the independent valuer who was appointed following the agreement of both Zen Courts and the Company.

2. On 7 March 2014, pursuant to and as directed by a further consequential Order made by the High Court on 25 February 2014, the Deputy Registrar of the High Court executed on behalf of Zen Courts and delivered to the Company’s solicitors Messrs Yoong & Partners a Form of Transfer of Securities (“Form 32A”) in favour of the Company, in respect of the 4,500,000 ordinary shares in BJD. The consequential Order was given in consequence of Zen Courts’ failure and/or refusal to execute and deliver the Form 32A as required by the Order dated 18 July 2013. Also pursuant to the consequential Order, the Company had through its solicitors delivered banker’s cheques for the Purchase Price and interest. Accordingly, the purchase and transfer by the Company of those shares was completed on 7 March 2014. Therefore, in addition to the 70% shareholding in BJD the Company originally held, the Company holds 100% of the share capital of BJD as of and from 7 March 2014.

The Directors of the Company hereby announce that on 5 May 2015, following applications filed by Zen Courts for leave of the Federal Court to appeal to the Federal Court on specific questions of law, the Federal Court allowed Zen Courts to appeal further on 2 questions of law. These are:

1. Whether a court is entitled to review a speaking valuation of property prepared by a valuer jointly appointed by parties to a litigation based on the decision in Campbell v Edwards [1976] 1 All ER 785.

2. Whether the principle established in Cristel v Cristel [1951] 2 All ER 574 and applied in Tong Lee Hwa v Chin Ah Kwi [1971] 2 MLJ 75 is excluded by a provision in an order of court that the court shall determine the final value of shares that are the subject of a compulsory purchase order made pursuant to section 181(2)(c) of the Companies Act 1965?

Zen Courts is required to attend to formalities of filing papers within certain prescribed times. No date has so far been set for the hearing of the further appeal.

Zen Courts has also filed another application for leave of the Federal Court, claiming that there are questions of law in respect of the Court of Appeal’s earlier decision to dismiss its appeal that the Order dated 18 July 2013 should not have provided for the order for interest to be paid was made “by consent” of the parties.  The term “by consent” was (in the process of the issuance of the written form of that Order) agreed to and approved by all the lawyers, including Zen Courts’ lawyers; however, as a result of a clerical error that term was omitted from the Order dated 18 July 2013 when its first formal sealed form was issued. Immediately upon the error being discovered, the Company applied for the clerical error to be corrected under the applicable rule in the Rules of the Court, and the High Court concurred and accordingly issued an amendment of the Order dated 18 July 2013 to reflect that the order to pay interest having been made by the High Court “by consent” of the parties. The Honourable Judge, in her written Grounds of Judgment, had specifically referred to and confirmed that the order to pay interest was so made “by consent”. However, Zen Courts remained dissatisfied. The application for such leave is now fixed for Case Management on 12 May 2015.

The Company will make announcements as necessary for any further updates.

This announcement is dated 11 May 2015.
