COLLECTIVELY REFERRED TO AS THE “PROPOSALS”

We refer to the previous announcement dated 4 August 2010 in relation to the signing of the Share Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) and Subscription Agreement (“SA”) in respect of the Proposals.

AFFIN Investment Bank Berhad, on behalf of AFFIN wishes to announce that in accordance with the terms of the SPA and SA, the SPA and SA have lapsed on 4 August 2011 as the conditions precedent to these agreements have not been fulfilled as of 4 August 2011, being the date falling twelve (12) months from the date of the respective agreements of 4 August 2010.  Consequently, all other agreements which only become operative upon completion of the SPA and SA namely, the Call Option Agreement, Put Option Agreement, Non-Competition Agreement and Shareholders Agreement, all dated 4 August 2010, ceased to have any further force and effect.

In view of the study currently being undertaken by Indonesia’s central bank, Bank Indonesia, in respect of the policy to limit majority shareholdings in commercial banks in Indonesia (“Policy”), AFFIN and the parties to the SPA and SA are of the view that it would be in the best interest of all parties to discontinue with the existing agreements. All parties may renegotiate the terms of the Proposals after the Policy has been released.

Further announcement will be made upon any new material development.
