Proposed Public Tender Offer for Shares in Refrigeration Electrical Engineering Corporation

Jardine Cycle & Carriage Limited ("JC&C") announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Platinum Victory Pte. Ltd. ("PVPL"), has submitted an application to launch a public tender offer ("PTO") for shares in Refrigeration Electrical Engineering Corporation ("REE"). The application is pending regulatory approval.

PVPL currently owns 24.9% of REE. In order to further acquire shares which would bring its shareholding in REE to above 25.0%, PVPL is required under Vietnam laws to make a PTO for shares in REE.

If approved, and subject to the level of acceptances, the proposed PTO will be for the acquisition of up to 10.11% of shares in REE at an offer price of VND45,000 per share. As at today, the closing market price of a REE share on the Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange was VND36,550. The proposed PTO will only be for shares in REE that are held by non-Vietnamese persons and entities, as PVPL is a non-Vietnamese entity and REE is subject to a 49.0% foreign ownership limit, which has been reached.
