3. SALIENT TERMS OF THE SPA

3.1 The Proposed Acquisition

Pursuant to the SPA, the Company shall acquire the Sale Shares from the Vendor, representing the entire issued and paid-up ordinary share capital of the Target, for the Consideration. Upon Completion, the Target will become a subsidiary of the Company.

The Consideration was agreed on a willing-buyer and willing-seller basis, after substantive negotiations with the Vendor, and is based on an agreed discount to the Actual Valuation that will be ascertained in due course. The Company will be appointing an independent qualified valuer to prepare a valuation report in respect of the Target. Further information on the factors taken into account by the Company in assessing the valuer's competence will be disclosed in the Company's subsequent announcement(s) upon such appointment. Where the valuation report states a valuation range, the Actual Valuation shall be deemed to be the mean between the highest and lowest values.

Based on the audited financial statements of the Target for its financial period from its date of incorporation on 25 July 2019 to 31 December 2020 ("FP2020"), the book value and net tangible asset value of the Sale Shares are both approximately S$(1,314,724). The Target had subsequently capitalised certain inter-company loans owing to the Vendor on 22 October 2021, and the book value and net tangible asset value of the Sale Shares, as at the date of this Announcement, are both approximately S$152,000.There is no open market for the Sale Shares.

The Sale Shares shall be acquired from the Vendor free from encumbrances and ranking pari passu with all other outstanding issued ordinary shares of the Target in respect of all rights, dividends, entitlements and advantages as of and including the date of completion of the Proposed Acquisition (the "Completion") (the "Completion Date").

3.2 The Issuance of the Consideration Shares

In consideration for the Sale Shares, the Company shall allot and issue such number of new fully paid-up Consideration Shares at the Pre-Consolidation Issue Price to the Vendor, fractional entitlements to be disregarded. The Consideration Shares will be allotted free from encumbrances and shall rank pari passu in all respects with the then-issued Shares save for any dividends, rights, allotments or other distributions, the record date for which falls before the date of issue of the Consideration Shares.

In addition under the SPA, the Vendor is entitled to direct the Consideration Shares to be allotted and issued to third parties (including but not limited to Future Science Research Inc.) (the "Recipients"), in such proportion and quantum as the Vendor may decide. The allotment and issuance of the Consideration Shares to the relevant Recipients shall constitute a good and valid discharge of the Company's obligation to issue the Consideration Shares under the SPA. The identity of the Recipients and their respective connections with the Vendor will be announced to Shareholders if and after the Vendor decides to direct such Consideration Shares to the said Recipients.

For the avoidance of doubt, all Consideration Shares shall be subject to the moratorium requirements under Rule 229 of the Listing Manual, or as otherwise required by the SGX-ST or the issue manager to be appointed in respect of the Proposed Acquisition (the "Issue Manager").

The Pre-Consolidation Issue Price of S$0.0075 for each Consideration Share represents a premium of 150% over the volume weighted average price of S$0.003 per Share for trades done on the Mainboard of the SGX-ST on 13 November 2020, being the last full market day prior to the suspension of trading of the Shares on 16 November 2020.

By way of illustration, assuming the following:

  1. the Proposed Share Consolidation (as defined below) has been completed;
  2. the Consideration derived from the Actual Valuation is S$1,360,000,000;
  3. no compliance placement is undertaken;
  4. save as set out above, there is no further share issuance prior to Completion,

the number of Consideration Shares to be issued is 1,813,333,333 Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole number). The Company will have an enlarged issued share capital of 1,880,775,808 ordinary shares after the issuance of the Consideration Shares (the "Proposed Share Issuance").

The number of Consideration Shares to be issued in this illustration represent approximately 96.41% of the Company's enlarged share capital after Completion.

For the avoidance of doubt, Shareholders are to note that the above computation is for illustrative purposes only and, amongst others, the actual amounts of Shares to be issued are subject to change.

  1. The Proposed Shares Consolidation
    Under the Listing Manual, the resulting issue price of the Consideration Shares must not, inter alia, be lower than the prescribed minimum price of S$0.50.

    Share (a "Consolidated Share") (the "Proposed Share Consolidation"). To that end, upon the execution of the Proposed Share Consolidation, the Pre-ConsolidationIssue Price shall be adjusted to S$0.75 per Consolidated Share (the "Post-Consolidation Issue Price").
  2. Adjustments to the Consideration
    The Consideration payable may also be subject to further adjustments, by mutual agreement between the parties in consultation with the Issue Manager, so as to allow a compliance placement to take place concurrently with or shortly after Completion at the same issue price per Consolidated Share.
  3. Funding of Costs and Expenses
    The Proposed Acquisition will be funded entirely by the allotment and issuance of the Consideration Shares. The parties agree that all fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the RTO (the "RTO Costs") will be paid by the Company.
  4. Conditions Precedent
    The Proposed Acquisition is conditional upon the fulfilment or waiver of customary conditions precedent for a transaction of this nature, including but not limited to the following:
    1. the Consideration derived from the Actual Valuation being not less than S$1.36 billion (equivalent to US$1 billion). Where the said Consideration is less than S$1.36 billion, save for the case where it is solely due to changes in exchange rate from Singapore Dollars and United States Dollars, the parties to the SPA agree to renegotiate the Consideration in good faith;
    2. the completion of financial, legal, operational and any other due diligence exercise on the Target Group by the Company, and the results of such due diligence exercise being reasonably satisfactory to the Company;
    3. the appointment of the independent qualified valuer being satisfactory to the SGX-ST and the Issue Manager;
