The unaudited shareholders’ funds of PT Borneo as at 31 August 2009 was approximately US$2.0 million (approximately HK$15.5 million). REASONS FOR THE TRANSACTION The Group is principally engaged in timber harvesting and management of forest concessions in Malaysia and Guyana, and tree plantations in New Zealand and Malaysia, manufacturing, marketing and distribution of wood products. It has been one of the long-term corporate objectives of the Group to become a global resource company. The Directors believe that, to diversify the industry cycle and risk of the timber business, it is in the interests of the Group to explore other resources-related business investment opportunities. The Directors consider that the entering into of the SPA and Convertible Loan Agreement, will enable the Group to expand into the coal mining industry in Indonesia. The Directors believe that the entering into of the SPA and Convertible Loan Agreement represents a good investment opportunity for the Group to diversify into a new resource and is in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole. GENERAL Since the applicable percentage ratios set out in Rule 14.07 of the Listing Rules exceed 5% but do not exceed 25%, the provision of the Convertible Loan constitute a discloseable transaction of the Company under the Listing Rules.
