Singapore (the “MAS”) today. The Company’s decision to proceed with the Proposed Invitation will,
among other things, be subject to investor demand and prevailing capital market conditions.

my interpretation:
the announcements by both FragranceLand and GPhotels were scripted to make both set of shareholders happy and not get too excited.
Truth is that Fragrance Land won tender for this landsite for $52.11m only recently - on 30Dec2011 (< 5mths ago),
and now "reselling" it for $24.136m capital gains to GPhotel.
SO actual pricing for this development land site now, is actually based on market valuation of $78m.
==> the SPV is being transfer for $25m, but effective land cost to GPhotels will still be around $78m.
and at this price ($78m) and based on the max permissible GFA of 6762.6 sqM
=> it's priced at $1072 psfppr !! , so no discounts lah..
.. if only on DAY1, bigboss had tender using an entity under the hotel biz division instead, then GPhotel will have saved $24m now, and dun need such a transfer.
rezoning comm to hotel: done before, v. likely will go thru unless got legitimate objections raised to URA.
site is only 200m from upcoming Bendeemeer MRT station (DTL), located just across Lavender St.

Further to the Announcement, the Directors of the Company wish to inform the shareholders of the
Company that SAC Capital Private Limited has been appointed as the independent financial adviser

The IFA will issue its formal opinion, in the circular to be issued to shareholders of the Company in
