Dear Sir/Madam,
NOTICE TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF ECMLFG IN RELATION TO THE SUSPENSION OF
TRADING OF ECM SHARES AND THE ENTITLEMENT DATE FOR THE CAPITAL REPAYMENT,
SHARE SPLIT AND SHARE CONSOLIDATION
1. INTRODUCTION
On 15 June 2012, the Board announced that: (i) ECMLFG had entered into a conditional share purchase agreement with KIBB and
KNKH for the disposal by ECMLFG of the entire equity interest in ECMLIB to KIBB for a
total disposal consideration of RM875,114,000 (“Proposed Disposal”); and
Pursuant to the Proposed Disposal, ECMLIB simultaneously entered into a business
merger agreement with KIBB for the proposed business merger of the businesses of
ECMLIB and KIBB (“Proposed Business Merger”).
In conjunction with and arising from the above, the Board also announced that the Company proposed to undertake a capital restructuring as follows: Proposed capital repayment to the shareholders of ECMLFG comprising a total of
RM442,647,000 in cash, 120,000,000 KNKH Shares and RM47,750,000 RULS via a
reduction of the par value of the existing ECM Shares by an amount to be determined,
in accordance with Section 64 of the Act (“Proposed Capital Repayment”);
Proposed share split involving the subdivision of the ECM Shares after the Proposed
Capital Repayment, to facilitate the Proposed Share Consolidation (as defined below)
(“Proposed Share Split”); and
Proposed consolidation of the ECM Shares after the Proposed Share Split resulting in
ECMLFG having a reduced issued and paid-up share capital taking into account the
Proposed Disposal and the Proposed Capital Repayment (“Proposed Share
Consolidation”),
(collectively referred to as the “Proposals”). The Proposed Share Split and Proposed Share
Consolidation are undertaken in conjunction with the Proposed Capital Repayment.
At the Extraordinary General Meeting of ECMLFG held on 31 July 2012, the shareholders of ECMLFG had approved all the Proposals, the details of which are set out in the Circular to Shareholders dated 9 July 2012. On 5 November 2012, the Board announced that SC had via its letter dated 2 November 2012, granted its approval under section 212(5) of the Capital Markets and Services Act 2007, for the proposed distribution of the KNKH Shares and RULS to all shareholders of ECMLFG by way of distribution-in-specie, pursuant to the Proposed Capital Repayment in conjunction with the Proposed Disposal and Proposed Business Merger. The approval granted by SC for the proposed distribution-in-specie is subject to the following terms: Distribution-in-specie of 120,000,000 KNKH Shares to all shareholders of ECMLFG; and (ii) Distribution-in-specie of RM47,750,000 RULS to all shareholders of ECMLFG. On 14 December 2012, ECMLFG announced that the Proposed Disposal and Proposed
Business Merger had been completed and further that the Proposed Capital Repayment by
ECMLFG based on the closing price of KNKH of RM0.585 per KNKH Share on 14 December
2012 (“KNKH Share Closing Price”) shall comprise:
distribution-in-specie of 120,000,000 KNKH Shares valued at RM70,200,000; and
distribution-in-specie of RM47,750,000 in nominal value of RULS,
(collectively referred to as the “Capital Repayment”),
amounting to RM560,597,000. The Capital Repayment will be effected via a reduction of the
par value of the ECM Shares from RM1.00 to RM0.324.
Based on the issued and paid-up share capital of ECMLFG as at 7 February 2013 of
828,819,091 ECM Shares of RM1.00 each, the distribution to Entitled Shareholders of
ECMLFG will be as follows:
RM per ECM Share
Total distribution
560,597,000
The KNKH Shares were valued at KNKH Share Closing Price. The RULS were issued at nominal value. ECMLFG will undertake the Proposed Share Split where every one (1) remaining ordinary
share of RM0.324 each in ECMLFG shall be subdivided into 32.4 ECM Shares of RM0.01
each in ECMLFG (“Subdivided Shares”) [“Share Split”].
Thereafter, ECMLFG will undertake the Proposed Share Consolidation where one hundred
(100) ECM Shares of RM0.01 each in ECMLFG shall be consolidated into one (1) ECM
Share of RM1.00 each, resulting in the issued and paid-up share capital of ECMLFG being
RM268,222,091 comprising 268,222,091 ECM Shares of RM1.00 each (“Consolidated
Shares”) [“Share Consolidation”].
On 20 December 2012, ECMLFG announced that Bursa Securities had informed that
ECMLFG is not considered a Cash Company pursuant to Paragraph 8.03(1) of the Main
Market Listing Requirements of Bursa Securities subject to the Company completing the
Capital Repayment via the cash distribution and distribution-in-specie of the KNKH Shares
and RULS as mentioned above to the Entitled Shareholders of the Company.
On 7 February 2013, the Board announced that ECMLFG has obtained the order of the High
Court of Malaya on 7 February 2013 confirming the reduction of the par value of the ECM
Shares from RM1.00 to RM0.324 (“Capital Reduction”).
On 19 February 2013, the Board announced that the Entitlement Date shall be on 6 March
2013 and the payment/distribution of the cash and KNKH Shares shall be on 14 March 2013
(“Payment Date”). The RULS shall be distributed on 4 April 2013.
The purpose of this Notice is to provide you with the information pertaining to the suspension
of trading of ECM Shares on the Main Market of Bursa Securities and the Entitlement Date for
the Capital Repayment, Share Split and Share Consolidation. You are not required to take
any action for the receipt of the cash distribution and distribution-in-specie of the
KNKH Shares. For the distribution-in-specie of the RULS, you are required to open a
Scripless Securities Trading System (“SSTS”) account with an Authorised Depository
Institution in order to facilitate the distribution of the RULS to you. If you do not wish
to open a SSTS account, your entitlement to the RULS will be held by ECMLFG on your
behalf. Further details on the distribution-in-specie of the RULS are elaborated in
Section 7 below.

Following the Capital Reduction, the Share Split and Share Consolidation will be effected immediately. The timing of the Capital Repayment will be in accordance with the timeframe set out in Section 8 of this Notice. In respect of the Share Split and Share Consolidation, the Subdivided Shares and the Consolidated Shares shall upon issue and allotment, rank pari passu in all respects with each other. In determining the entitlement of the Entitled Shareholders to the Capital Repayment, Subdivided Shares and Consolidated Shares, fractional entitlements, if any, will be disregarded and shall be dealt with in such manner as the Board shall in its absolute discretion deems fit and expedient in order to minimize the incidence of odd lots, and in the SUSPENSION OF TRADING OF ECM SHARES

Dato’ Seri Kalimullah bin Masheerul Hassan
Appendix 1
Opening a Scripless Securities Trading System (“SSTS”) Account
In line with market conventions whereby all fixed income securities are scripless, the RULS issued by KNKH to ECMLFG is a scripless corporate debt security. Therefore, a SSTS account is required by an ECMLFG shareholder to receive the RULS. The SSTS functions to effect and record the trading of scripless securities between participating members of the SSTS, or between these member institutions and Bank Negara Malaysia, as well as the associated settlement of payments. A SSTS account can be opened with an Authorised Depository Institution (“ADI”). Generally, all commercial and investment banks in Malaysia are ADIs. The SSTS account in any ADI is linked to the RENTAS funds transfer system. There is no risk of non-payment or failure of delivery as securities in the SSTS account can only be moved or payment can only be made if and only if there is a matching transaction from another institution. The ADI functions to maintain the securities accounts of individual customers, withhold tax where applicable for beneficial holders, pay interest or dividends or redemption proceeds they receive to the beneficial owners, and provide evidence of ownership to prove entitlement to voting rights. An individual who wishes to open a SSTS account to trade in government bonds and corporate debt securities is required to have total net personal assets in excess of RM3 million or its equivalent in foreign currencies. A corporation which wishes to open a SSTS account is required to have total net assets in excess of RM10 million. The ADI would normally charge an average of RM100 to open a SSTS account. Additionally, there will be a monthly custodian fee chargeable based on the value of the debt securities in the SSTS account. A letter of instruction from the SSTS account holder is required to be issued to your ADI to receive the RULS into your account. You should contact your ADI for the format of the said letter of instruction. ECM LIBRA FINANCIAL GROUP BERHAD
