On 10 July 2009, CPN Retail Growth Leasehold Property Fund (CPNRF)
(the "Fund") by TMB
Asset Management Company Limited (the "Management Company") has notified the
resolutions of its
Investment Committee pursuant to its letter No. TT/IM 351/2009 determining
the closing date of the
unitholders' register book to suspend the transfer of Investment Units for
determining the right of
unitholders to attend the unitholders' meeting on 24 July 2009 onwards until the

that the expected
amount of the capital of the Fund to be increased, the number of additional
Investment Units to be
issued and offered for sale and the value of the Investment Units to be issued
and offered for sale
including the amount of which the Fund will be borrowed will be notified to
the unitholders after the
Investment Committee receives the valuation reports from the property valuers
and passes the
resolutions relating to such matter, as per the details previously informed.
By this letter, the Management Company would like to notify the
unitholders of the Fund
that on 16 July 2009 the Investment Committee's Meeting has passed resolutions
approving the
reschedule of the closing date of the unitholders' register book for
determining the right of unitholders to
attend the unitholders' meeting from 24 July 2009 to 28 July 2009 onwards until
the meeting is adjourned and reschedule of the date of a unitholders' meeting
from 11 August 2009
to 17 August 2009 and approving the Fund to increase its capital in the amount
not exceeding Baht
6,706,000,000, from the existing capital of Baht 10,915,000,000 to the new
capital of not exceeding Baht
17,621,000,000, through the issuance and offer for sale of not exceeding
839,000,000 additional
Investment Units at the unit value as to be determined by the Investment
Committee. In this regard, the
number of additional Investment Units to be issued and offered for sale shall
not affect the accretion of
dividend per unit which the Unitholders will receive after the additional
investment of the FUND, to be
lower than the accretion of dividend per unit which the Unitholders will
receive from the initial investment
in real properties of the FUND, based on the projection for year 2010. In
addition, the final value of the
Fund's capital increase and/or the final number of the additional Investment
Units to be offered for sale
at this time may be lower than the value of the Fund's capital increase and
the number of additional
Investment Units to be offered for sale as provided above. The price of the
additional Investment Units
offered for sale shall be determined by the Management Company which reflects
a value of the real
properties in which the Fund will invested and will be the price that
acceptable to the owner of the real
properties and by taken into accounts, among other things, the following
considerations:
- the prevailing market price of the Fund's Investment Units on the
Stock Exchange of Thailand
(the "SET") during the period when the additional Investment Units are
issued and offered for
sale;
- the value of the real properties provided by independent property
valuers;
1/5
the general market conditions;
-
indication of interest received from investors.
-
The price, which the Fund will be investing in the real properties, will be
determined by the proceeds
which the Fund will receive from its capital increase and loan (if any),
deducted by estimated expenses
related to the capital increase and the additional investment in real
properties. The price of the
investment in these real properties will not be higher than the lowest price
obtained from the valuation
report of the property valuers mentioned above in excess of 20 percent.
The additional Investment Units allotted in the rights offering and those
allotted to others investors shall
be offered at the same price.
The objectives of this capital increase are to use of the proceed received
from the capital increase to
invest in the additional real properties, being the Real Properties of
CentralPlaza Pinklao Project and seek
benefits therefrom with the aim to generate income and returns to the Fund and
the unitholders, as the
Management Company anticipates that these additional real properties
investment will enhance the
unitholders' opportunity to receive returns in form of increased dividend per
unit. In addition, such
investment will help decentralizing the Fund's particular source of income.
In addition, the Fund Manager shall make the additional investment in these
real properties at the price
not higher than the lowest price obtained from the valuation report of the
independence property valuers
in excess of 20 percent. The valuation report of the property shall be
conducted not exceeding 6 months
before the investment is made. In this regards, after the Unitholders pass the
resolution to approve the
capital increase for making the additional investment of the Fund, it shall be
deemed that the
Unitholders' resolutions will be valid for the period of one year after the
date that Unitholders' resolution
has been passed. In addition, the Fund Manager shall be authorized to consider
the additional investment
including to determine the amount of capital to be increased, number and price
of the additional
Investment Unit which will be offered for sale, and/or the details of loan,
provided that the price of the
investment in such real property shall not exceed the price approved by the
Unitholders of the Fund and
such price shall not be higher than the lowest price obtained from the
valuation report of the
independence property valuers in excess of 20 percent.
The Investment Committee entrusted the Fund Manager to have the power to take
any action necessary
and relevant to the capital increase and loan (if any) of the Fund in all
respects, including to determine
the terms and details, negotiate, agree, execute, deliver and/or amend any
other relevant documents or
evidence, appoint any substitute and to do any other acts to propose the
matter to the unitholders'
meeting for consideration.
The Investment Committee resolved to propose to the unitholders to consider
and approve that the Fund
shall offer for sale of the additional Investment Units in 2 portions
according to the details as set out
below.
1st Portion: To allot not less than 50 percent of the total number of the
additional Investment Units
to be issued and offered for sale for the offering for sale to
the existing unitholders
whose names appear in the register of unitholders (Rights
Offering). The ratio of such
offering is calculated from the amount of the total number of
the Investment Units issued
and offered for sale before the capital increase of the Fund
divided by the amount of the
total number of the Investment Units to be issued and offered
for sale in the First Portion
at the unit price as to be fixed by the Investment Committee
according to the method to
be further specified. The existing unitholders may declare
their intention to buy the new
Investment Units according to their entitlement or more than
their entitlement or less
than their entitlement or waive their rights to subscribe for
the new Investment Units
offered for sale at this time.
2/5
In the case that the allotment ratio according to the entitlement of the
existing
unitholders results in any of the existing unitholders having the rights to
subscribe for a
fraction of an Investment Unit that cannot be allotted as a full Investment
Unit, such
fraction of the Investment Unit shall be rounded down to the nearest full
number. The
Management Company shall then combine the remaining Investment Units from such
allotment with the Investment Units which are not subscribed for due to the
existing
unitholders have waived their rights or have not made a timely subscription or
have not
made a full subscription, or for any reason whatsoever, and offer them for
sale by an
allotment in the following orders:
1. In the event that there are a sufficient number of the remaining
Investment
Units under the Rights Offering portion to serve all unitholders
wishing to
subscribe for the additional Investment Units in excess of their
rights, the
remaining Investment Units shall be allotted to all of such
unitholders whishing
to subscribe for the additional Investment Units in excess of their
rights pursuant
to the number of Investment Units that each of such unitholders wishes
to
subscribe for; or
2. In the event that the remaining Investment Units under the Rights
Offering
portion are not sufficient to serve all unitholders wishing to
subscribe for the
additional Investment Units in excess of their rights, the remaining
Investment
Units will be allotted to each of unitholders wishing to subscribe for
the
additional Investment Units in excess of their rights on a pro rata
basis to the
number of Investment Units to be subscribed by each of the unitholders
in
excess of their rights.
3. In the event that there are remaining Investment Units under the
Public Offering
and/or Private Placement portion as specified in the Second Portion, the
remaining Investment Units will be allotted to each of the existing
unitholders
wishing to subscribe for the additional Investment Units in excess of
their rights,
but have not been fully allotted.
If there are Investment Units remaining from the offering for sale under 1 or
2 above,
the Management Company reserves the right to offer and allot such remaining
Investment Units to specific investors under private placement basis or to
retail investors
under Public Offering basis in the Second Portion according to the method as
it deems
appropriate.
In this regard, the existing unitholders wishing to subscribe for the
additional Investment
Units in excess of their rights shall state their intention and pay for the
subscription price
of the excess Investment Units together with the subscription price of the
Investment
Units subscribed under the Rights Offering.
Thus, Central Pattana Public Company Limited, the major unitholders of the
Fund and the
owner of the real properties which will be invested by the Fund, intended to
maintain the
unitholding ratio in the Fund. In this regard, such unitholding of Central
Pattana Public
Company Limited shall not cause Central Pattana Public Company Limited and
person(s)
of the same group to hold the Investment Units of the Fund in excess of
one-third of the
total number of the Investment Units issued and sold.
The Investment Committee will determine the date of closure of the
unitholders' register
book and suspension of transfer of the Investment Units for the purpose of
determining
3/5
the existing unitholders' entitlement to subscribe for the
additional Investment Units
issued and offered for sale after the Office of the Securities
and Exchange Commission
(the "Office of the SEC") approves the capital increase of the
Fund as proposed. The
existing unitholders will be entitled to the rights to
subscribe for additional Investment
Units after the office of the SEC approves the capital
increase of the Fund. The
Management Company will notify the SET of the date of closure
of the unitholders'
register book in due course.
2nd Portion: To allot not more than 50 percent of the total additional
Investment Units to investors
who are retail investors ("Public Offering") and/or specific
investors ("Private Placement")
who are qualified under the relevant notification of the
Office of the SEC. The
Management Company will allot the Investment Units under the
private placement basis
according to the demand to purchase the Investment Units of
the investors, and will allot
the Investment Units under the public offering basis according
to small lots first method,
at the unit price as to be determined by the Investment
Committee.
In the case that the demand to purchase the Investment Units
of the subscribers under
private placement basis is overwhelming that the Management
Company is unable to
make a full allotment to all of the subscribers according to
their subscription amount, the
Management Company reserves the right to allot the Investment
Units to the subscribers
under Private Placement basis according to the method as the
Management Company
deems appropriate.
In the event that the remaining Investment Units under the
Public Offering as specified
in the Second Portion, the Management Company will allot the
remaining Investment
Units to the existing unitholders (Rights Offering) who
subscribed for the additional
Investment Units in excess of their rights, but have not been
fully allotted in the First
Portion.
In any case, there shall not be any allotment made by the
Management Company that
will cause any subscriber or any same group of persons to be
the unitholder holding the
Investment Units of the Fund in excess of one-third of the
total number of the
Investment Units issued and sold.
The Management Company shall file an application with the Stock Exchange of
Thailand for its approval
of the listing of the additional Investment Units of the Fund as listed
securities within 30 days from the
date of closing of the offer for sale of the Investment Units.
The Investment Committee entrusted the Fund Manager to have the power to take
any action necessary
and relevant to the offer for sale of such additional Investment Units in all
respects, including to
determine the terms and details, negotiate, agree, execute, deliver and/or
amend any other relevant
documents or evidence, appoint any substitute and to do any other acts to
propose the matter to the
unitholders' meeting for consideration.
The Investment Committee appointed Central Pattana Public Company Limited,
which is the owner of the
additional real properties to be invested by the Fund located in Central Plaza
Pinklao Project and a major
unihtolder of the Fund, to be the property manager of such additional real
properties.
