The settlement of the SCR Offer Price will be effected via electronic remittance to the Entitled Shareholders' bank accounts duly registered with Bursa Malaysia Depository Sdn Bhd ("Bursa Depository") for purposes of receiving electronic cash dividend payments ("eDividend Accounts") within 10 days from the Effective Date, being the date on which an office copy of the order granted by the High Court of Sabah and Sarawak on 23 May 2025 confirming the reduction of the issued share capital of NPC under Section 116 of the Companies Act 2016 ("Act") ("High Court Order") is lodged with the Registrar of Companies pursuant to Section 116(6) of the Act. For the Entitled Shareholders who do not maintain eDividend Accounts, the settlement of the SCR Offer Price will be effected via remittance in the form of cheques, banker's drafts and/or cashier's orders which will be despatched by ordinary mail to the Entitled Shareholders (or their designated agents, as they may direct) at the Entitled Shareholders' registered addresses last maintained with Bursa Depository at their own risk within 10 days from the Effective Date. 

For information purposes, an office copy of the High Court Order will be lodged with the Registrar of Companies pursuant to Section 116(6) of the Act on the Entitlement Date and consequently, the settlement of the SCR Offer Price will be effected on Thursday, 26 June 2025.
