5.1 Basis of Consideration
The purchase consideration for the Land of RM169,295,940/- ("Purchase Consideration") was arrived at on a willing-buyer willing-seller basis after taking into consideration the development potential of the Land. Given the Group's knowledge of the market value of the properties surrounding the Land, no valuation was carried out on the Land.
The Land, which has been approved by the relevant authorities from 'Agricultural' to 'Building' use ("SBKS Approval"), is purchased free from all encumbrances and with vacant possession and upon the terms and conditions specified in the SPA.
5.2 Conditions Precedent and Estimated Time Frame for Completion
The Proposed Acquisition is conditional upon the fulfillment of inter-alia, the following conditions precedent (collectively, "Conditions Precedent") within a period of three (3) months from the date of the SPA or such other period as may be mutually agreed in writing between the parties ("Approval Period"), namely:-

ii) if required, the approval of the Economic Planning Unit ("EPU") being obtained by the Purchaser for the purchase of the Land ("EPU Approval");
iii) the planning approval (Kebenaran Merancang) and revised layout approvals being obtained by the Purchaser based on the Purchaser's requirements and conditions, from Majlis Bandaraya Johor Bahru ("MBJB") and the land authorities for the Purchaser's development of the Land as a mixed development without any condition imposed on the Purchaser to construct any low-cost component within the Land;

v) the Vendor obtaining the written consents of the developers of the lands adjacent to the Land, or such other persons who are the owners of the adjacent lands at the relevant time, consenting to the construction of certain access roads by the Purchaser.

5.3 Payment of Purchase Consideration
The Purchase Consideration, which will be satisfied wholly in cash from internally generated funds and/or external borrowings, shall be payable to the Vendor in the following manner:-

5.5 Completion of the Proposed Acquisition
Barring unforeseen circumstances and subject to the fulfillment of the Conditions Precedent (unless waived by the Purchaser), the Proposed Acquisition is expected to be completed during the financial year ending 31 October 2011.
6. ECONOMIC OUTLOOK AND PROSPECTS
The Malaysian economy registered a strong growth of 8.9% in the second quarter of 2010, driven by sustained expansion in domestic demand and continued robust growth in external demand. The stronger domestic demand was due to higher private and public sector spending, while the expansion in external demand spurred domestic production.
Going forward, the domestic economy is expected to remain strong sustained by robust private sector demand. While external developments may result in a moderation in the pace of growth, favourable employment conditions, sustained consumer and business sentiments, moderate inflation and an accommodative policy environment are expected to encourage domestic economic activity, while external demand would continue to be supported by regional demand.
In light of these factors, the management of S P Setia is of the view that the prospects for property development activities in Malaysia are positive and is not aware of any risk factors arising from the SPA other than the usual market and global economic risks.

Bank Negara Malaysia, Press Release dated 18 August 2010
7. RATIONALE FOR THE PROPOSED ACQUISITION AND PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
S P Setia has been present in Johor for more than 13 years and has carved a solid reputation for delivering quality homes in its four ongoing projects, namely Bukit Indah Johor, Setia Indah Johor, Setia Tropika and Setia Eco Gardens. The Group's long presence and continuous efforts in building integrated townships in Johor were most recently recognised by both FIABCI Malaysia and FIABCI International which awarded Setia Eco Gardens the Best Master Plan award at the FIABCI Malaysia Property Awards 2008 and FIABCI Prix d'Excellence Awards 2009 respectively.
With Setia Indah Johor at the tail-end of its development, the Proposed Acquisition will replenish Setia Indah's land bank and enable the Group to continue to benefit from the strong branding it has achieved in that locality. It is also in line with the Group's wider strategy of continuing to acquire strategically located prime land in Johor Bahru.
The close proximity of the Land to other matured developments such as Taman Mount Austin and Taman Daya also offer several important advantages. Key among these is the sustained potential demand from upgraders in the area desiring to move-up to larger, newer and better designed houses. Another source of demand is from young adults planning to move out of their parents' homes without having to leave the comforts of the local support network that they have grown accustomed to. Further, the existing population of the surrounding matured housing projects will also form the core catchment area for the proposed development's commercial components.
Based on a preliminary feasibility study and revised layout plan which is subject to the approval of the relevant authorities, the proposed development is expected to have a gross development value of RM1.5 billion and is expected to commence by end of year 2011 and span over a development period of approximately 8 years. However, it is currently too preliminary to ascertain the total development cost, the expected completion date of the development and the expected profits to be derived from the development of the Land.
In view of the above, Management is confident that the proposed development of mixed residential and commercial project on the Land will be well received which augurs well for the Group and is expected to contribute positively to the future earnings and cash flow of S P Setia Group. The proposed development will also ensure S P Setia's continuing presence and efforts in building residential properties in Johor.

8.3 Gearing
