    later than 5.00 p.m. on
    April 6,
    2009; or
    

	 
	    (ii) 
    
	    make an electronic application
    through an ATM of a Participating Bank (if applicable) using
    cash only by authorising such Participating Bank to deduct the
    full amount payable for the relevant number of new ordinary
    shares accepted (and if applicable) excess ordinary shares
    applied for from your account with such Participating Bank by
    following the instructions appearing on the ATM screens of such
    Participating Bank not later than

    2009. NO

    an electronic application is made.
    

 

    The new ordinary shares
    provisionally allotted to you and standing to the credit of your
    Securities Account with CDP will be deemed to have been declined
    and will forthwith lapse and become void, and will cease to be
    capable of acceptance if an acceptance of such new ordinary
    shares and payment therefor are not made through CDP by
    5.00 p.m. on April 6,
    2009 or
    (if applicable) through an ATM of a Participating Bank by
    9.30 p.m. on April 6,
    2009 in
    accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions
    contained in the Singapore offer information statement, (if
    applicable) the Memorandum and Articles of Association of the
    Company, and the instructions contained in this ARE. To the
    extent that such provisional allotment of new ordinary shares
    have been accepted in part only, the balance will be deemed to
    have been declined and will forthwith lapse and become void and
    cease to be capable of being accepted by you. CDP takes no
    responsibility for any decision that you or the Company may make.
    

 

    Where an acceptance, (if
    applicable) excess application
    and/or
    payment does not conform strictly to the instructions set out
    under the Singapore offer information statement, the ARE, ARS,
    PAL and/or
    any other application form for new ordinary shares
    and/or
    excess ordinary shares, or where an acceptance
    and/or
    excess application is illegible, incomplete, or incorrectly
    completed or accompanied by an improperly or insufficiently
    drawn remittance, or does not comply with the instructions for
    electronic application (if applicable), or where the “Free
    Balance” of your Securities Account is not credited with,
    or is credited with less than the relevant number of new
    ordinary shares accepted as at the last date and time for
    acceptance, excess application and payment for the new ordinary
    shares, the Company
    and/or CDP
    may, at their/its absolute discretion, reject or treat as
    invalid any such acceptance, excess application, payment
    and/or other
    process of remittance at any time after receipt in such manner
    as they/it may deem fit.

 

    The Company
    and/or CDP
    shall be entitled to process each application submitted by an
    entitled depositor for the acceptance of his provisional
    allotment of new ordinary shares and (if applicable) excess
    application and the payment received in relation thereto on its
    own, without regard to any other application and payment that
    may be submitted by the same entitled depositor. For the
    avoidance of doubt, insufficient payment for an application may
    render the application invalid. Evidence of payment (or
    overpayment) in other applications shall not constitute, or be
    construed as, an affirmation of such invalid acceptance and (if
    applicable) application for excess ordinary shares.
    

 

    Subject to compliance with any
    applicable law or the rules of any applicable stock exchange,
    the Company may consummate the rights offering even if the
    underwriting agreement (as defined in the Singapore offer
    information statement) is terminated or the conditions precedent
    to the underwriting obligations of the underwriters (as defined
    in the Singapore offer information statement) under the
    underwriting agreement are not fulfilled or (if applicable)
    waived on or prior to the closing date of the rights offering.
    

 

    AVAILABILITY OF EXCESS ORDINARY
    SHARES

 

    The excess ordinary shares
    available for application are subject to the terms and
    conditions contained in the Singapore offer information
    statement, (if applicable) the Memorandum and Articles of
    Association of the Company, and the instructions contained in
    this ARE, the ARS, PAL and Form E. Applications for excess
    ordinary shares will, at the directors’ absolute
    discretion, be satisfied from such new ordinary shares as are
    not validly taken up by the entitled depositors or the
    purchasers of the provisional allotments of new ordinary shares,
    the entitled scripholders or their renouncees, the new ordinary
    shares underlying disregarded fractional entitlements, the
    unsold “nil-paid” provisional allotments of new
    ordinary shares (if any) of ineligible shareholders and any new
    ordinary shares that are otherwise not taken up for whatever
    reason, in accordance with the terms and conditions contained in
    this ARE, the ARS, PAL, Form E, the Singapore offer
    information statement and (if applicable) the Memorandum and
    Articles of Association of the Company. If the aggregate number
    of excess ordinary shares available for subscription (either
    directly or in the form of ADSs) is less than the aggregate
    number of excess ordinary shares so subscribed for, the Company
    will allocate the available excess ordinary shares to holders
    who have applied to subscribe for such excess ordinary shares.
    Such allocation will be made at the discretion of the Company
    primarily based on each applicant’s relative shareholding
    in the Company as of the ordinary share books closure date and
    the ADS record date, respectively, provided that no applicant
    for excess ordinary shares shall be allocated more excess
    ordinary shares than the number for which they have applied.
    Priority will be given to the rounding of odd lots but
    otherwise, no distinction will be made between directors,
    substantial shareholders, other shareholders of of the Company
    and other applicants for excess ordinary shares. CDP takes no
    responsibility for any decisions that the directors may make.
    The directors of the Company reserve the right to reject any
    application for excess ordinary shares in whole or in part
    without giving any reason whatsoever therefor. In the event that
    the number of excess ordinary shares allotted to the entitled
    depositor is less than the number of excess ordinary shares
    applied for, the entitled depositor shall be deemed to have
    accepted the number of excess ordinary shares actually allotted
    to him.
    

 

    REMITTANCE

 

    If you are accepting your
    provisional allotment of new ordinary shares and (if applicable)
    applying for excess ordinary shares through an ATM of a
    Participating Bank (if applicable), no cashier’s order or
    banker’s draft is required. You must have a valid ATM card
    issued in your own name by the relevant Participating Bank. This
    ARE need not be submitted to CDP if you are accepting and (if
    applicable) applying through an ATM of a Participating Bank.
    

 

    If you are accepting your
    provisional allotment of new ordinary shares and (if applicable)
    applying for excess ordinary shares through CDP, the duly
    completed ARE must be accompanied by A SINGLE REMITTANCE for the
    full amount payable for the relevant number of new ordinary
    shares accepted and (if applicable) excess ordinary shares
    applied for at the subscription price, made in Singapore
    currency in the form of a cashier’s order or banker’s
    draft drawn on a bank in Singapore, and made payable to
    “CDP — CHARTERED
    SGD RIGHTS OFFERING
    ACCOUNT” and
    crossed “NOT NEGOTIABLE, A/C PAYEE ONLY”. Your
    name and Securities Account number must be clearly written in
    block letters on the reverse side of the cashier’s order or
    banker’s draft. NO COMBINED CASHIER’S ORDER OR
    BANKER’S DRAFT FOR DIFFERENT SECURITIES ACCOUNTS OR OTHER
    FORM OF PAYMENT (INCLUDING THE USE OF A PERSONAL CHEQUE,
    POSTAL ORDER OR MONEY ORDER ISSUED BY A POST OFFICE IN
    SINGAPORE) WILL BE ACCEPTED.
    

 

    CERTIFICATES

 

    The certificates for the new
    ordinary shares and excess ordinary shares will be registered in
    the name of CDP or its nominee. Upon the crediting of the new
    ordinary shares and excess ordinary shares, CDP will send to
    you, BY ORDINARY POST AND AT YOUR OWN RISK, a notification
    letter showing the number of new ordinary shares and excess
    ordinary shares credited to your Securities Account.

    your provisional allotment of new ordinary shares, you may do so
    through your dealer or remisier, for the period up to the last
    day for trading of the provisional allotment of new ordinary

    separate ARS to be issued and sent to the purchaser(s) at
    his/their respective address(es) in Singapore or the United
    States as recorded with CDP.
    

 

    RETURN OF SURPLUS APPLICATION

    excess ordinary shares, if no excess ordinary shares are
    allotted to you or if the number of excess ordinary shares
    allotted to you is less than that applied for, the amount paid
    on application or the surplus application monies, as the case
    may be, will be returned and refunded to you without interest or

    accordance with, the terms and conditions of, or instructions
    set out in, the ARE, the Singapore offer information statement
    or (if applicable) the Memorandum and Articles of Association of
    the Company, at CDP’s absolute discretion, and to return or

    and/or
    through an ATM of a Participating Bank (if applicable), the
    Company/CDP shall be authorized and entitled to accept your
    instructions in whichever mode or a combination thereof as
    it/they may, in its/their absolute discretion, deem fit. In
    determining the number of new ordinary shares which you have
    validly given instructions to accept, you shall be deemed to
    have irrevocably given instructions to accept the lesser of the
    aggregate number of new ordinary shares you have accepted by way
    of this ARE, whether directly to CDP
    and/or
    through an ATM of a Participating Bank (if applicable), or the
    number of new ordinary shares represented by the provisional
    allotment standing to the credit of the “Free Balance”
    of your Securities Account which is available for acceptance as
    at the last date of acceptance and payment. If applicable, in

    have irrevocably given instructions to apply for and agreed to
    accept such number of excess ordinary shares not exceeding the
    aggregate number of excess ordinary shares for which you have
    applied by way of this ARE, whether directly to CDP

    Company
    and/or CDP,
    in determining the number of new ordinary shares and (if
    applicable) the number of excess ordinary shares in which you
    have given valid instructions for acceptance of or excess
    application for, as the case may be, shall be authorized and
    entitled to have regard to the aggregate amount of payment
    received for the acceptance of or the excess application for, as
    the case may be, new ordinary shares whether by way of
    cashier’s order or banker’s draft accompanying this
    ARE or by way of application through an ATM of a Participating
    Bank (if applicable), which you have authorised or deemed to
    have authorised to be applied towards the payment in respect of
    your acceptance and (if applicable) excess application.
    

	 
	    (8) 
    
	    By completing and delivering this
    ARE or by making an electronic application through an ATM of a
    Participating Bank (if applicable) and in consideration of the

    the Authority);
    

	 
	          (b) 
    
	    your remittance will be honoured on
    first presentation and that any monies returnable may be held

    enjoy any share of revenue or other benefit arising therefrom;
    

	 
	          (c) 
    
	    the contract arising from your
    acceptance of the provisional allotment of new ordinary shares
    and (if applicable) your application for excess ordinary shares
    shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with,
    Singapore law and you irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive
    jurisdiction of the Singapore courts;
    

	 
	          (d) 
    
	    in the event that your acceptance
    of your provisional allotment of new ordinary shares and (if
    applicable) excess application is/are invalid, presentation of
    your remittance for payment by or on behalf of the Company shall
    not constitute, or be construed as, an affirmation of such
    invalid acceptance and (if applicable) excess application;
    

	 
	          (e) 
    
	    all applications for excess
    ordinary shares are accepted by the Company solely by the
    allotment and issue of the relevant new ordinary shares and not
    otherwise, notwithstanding the presentation of your remittance
    for payment by or on behalf of the Company;
    

	 
	          (f) 
    
	    any interest, share of revenue or
    other benefit accruing on or arising from or in connection with
    any acceptance and (if applicable) application monies shall be
    for the benefit of the Company and neither the Company, CDP, CPF
    Board, the joint lead managers and underwriters nor any other
    person involved in the rights offering shall be under any
    obligation whatsoever to account for such interest, share of
    revenue or other benefit to you or any other person;

	          (h) 
    
	    in accepting your provisional
    allotment of new ordinary shares and (if applicable) in applying
    for excess ordinary shares, reliance is placed solely on the
    information contained in the Singapore offer information
    statement and that none of the Company, CDP, CPF Board, the
    joint lead managers and underwriters or any other person
    involved in the rights offering shall have any liability for any
    information not so contained; and
    

	 
	          (i) 
    
	    you authorise CDP to give, provide,
    divulge, disclose or reveal any information pertaining to your
    Securities Account maintained in CDP’s record, including,
    without limitation, your name(s), your NRIC number(s) or
    passport number(s), Securities Account number(s), address(es),
    the number of ordinary shares standing to the credit of your
    Securities Account, the number of new ordinary shares
    provisionally allotted to you, your acceptance and (if
    applicable) excess application and any other information to the
    Company, the joint lead managers and underwriters and any other

    rights offering and your acceptance and (if applicable) excess
    application.

    subject to risks of electrical, electronic, technical and
    computer-related faults and breakdowns, fires, acts of God,
    mistakes, losses, theft (in each case whether or not within the

    Banks) and any other events whatsoever beyond the control of the
    Company, CDP, CPF Board, the joint lead managers and
    underwriters, the Share Registrar
    and/or the
    Participating Banks and if, in any such event, the Company, CDP,
    CPF Board, the joint lead managers and underwriters, the Share
    Registrar
    and/or the
    Participating Banks do not record or receive the same by the
    last date and time for acceptance, excess application and

    otherwise accessible, whether wholly or partially for whatever
    reason, you shall be deemed not to have accepted the new
    ordinary shares and (if applicable) applied for the excess
    ordinary shares and you shall have no claim whatsoever against
    the Company, CDP, CPF Board, the joint lead managers and

    ordinary share rights respectively in the Singapore offer
    information statement. References to times in this instructions
    booklet are to Singapore time.

    United States for the service of notices or documents,
    references in this instructions booklet to the Singapore offer
    information statement, the contents of which are substantially
    similar to the U.S. prospectus together with this instructions
    booklet, shall be construed as the U.S. prospectus together with

    The instructions in this instruction booklet are divided into

    Securities Account, and whose addresses with CDP are in
    Singapore or the United States, as at the ordinary share books
    closure date or who have, at least three market days prior to
    the ordinary share books closure date, provided CDP with

    prospectus together with this instructions booklet (if their
    registered address with CDP as at the ordinary shares books
    closure date is in the United States, or if they had, at least
    three market days prior to the ordinary shares books closure
    date, provided CDP with an address in United States for the
    service of notices or documents) and the application form for
    new ordinary shares and excess ordinary shares, or ARE, which
    forms part of the Singapore offer information statement. The
    provisional allotment of new ordinary shares is governed by the
    terms and conditions of the Singapore offer information
    statement, (if applicable) our Memorandum and Articles of
    Association and the ARE. The number of new ordinary shares
    provisionally allotted to each respective entitled depositor is
    indicated in the relevant ARE (fractional entitlements, if any,
    having been disregarded). Entitled depositors may accept their
    provisional allotments of new ordinary shares in whole or in
    part and are eligible to apply for excess ordinary shares. The
    Securities Accounts of entitled depositors have been credited by
    CDP with the provisional allotments of new ordinary shares as
    indicated in the ARE. Full instructions for the acceptance of
    and payment for the provisional allotments of new ordinary
    shares and (if applicable) application for excess ordinary
    shares are also set out in the ARE.

 

    If an entitled depositor wishes to accept his provisional
    allotment of new ordinary shares specified in the ARE, in full
    or in part, and (if applicable) apply for excess ordinary
    shares, he may do so by duly completing the relevant portions of
    the ARE or by way of acceptance of the new ordinary shares and
    (if applicable) application for excess ordinary shares made
    through an Automated Teller Machine, or ATM, of a Participating
    Bank in accordance with the terms and conditions of the
    Singapore offer information statement, or electronic
    application. An entitled depositor should ensure that the ARE is
    accurately and correctly completed, failing which the acceptance
    of his provisional allotment of new ordinary shares and (if
    applicable) application for excess ordinary shares may be
    rejected.

 

    Entitled depositors may accept their provisional allotments
    of new ordinary shares and (if applicable) apply for excess
    ordinary shares either through CDP or by way of electronic
    application through an ATM of a Participating Bank as described
    below.

 

    Where an acceptance, (if applicable) excess application
    and/or
    payment does not conform strictly to the instructions set out
    under the Singapore offer information statement, the ARE, the
    ARS (as defined below)
    and/or any
    other application form for new ordinary shares
    and/or
    excess ordinary shares or where an acceptance and (if
    applicable) excess application is illegible, incomplete or
    incorrectly completed or accompanied by an improperly or
    insufficiently drawn remittance, or does not comply with the
    instructions for an electronic application, or where the
    “Free Balance” of the entitled depositor’s
    Securities Account is not credited with, or is credited with
    less than the relevant number of new ordinary shares accepted as
    at the last time and date for acceptance, excess application and
    payment for the new ordinary shares, our company
    and/or CDP
    may, at their/its absolute discretion, reject or treat as
    invalid any such acceptance, application, payment
    and/or other
    process of remittance at any time after receipt in such manner
    as they/it may deem fit.

 

    Our company
    and/or CDP
    shall be entitled to process each application submitted by an
    entitled depositor or purchaser (as defined below) for the
    acceptance of new ordinary shares and (if applicable)
    application for excess ordinary shares, or excess application,
    and the payment received in relation thereto on its own, without
    regard to any other application and payment that may be
    submitted by the same entitled depositor or purchaser. For the
    avoidance of doubt, insufficient payment for an application may
    render the application invalid. Evidence of payment (or
    overpayment) in other applications shall not constitute, or be
    construed as, an affirmation of such invalid acceptance and (if
    applicable) application for excess ordinary shares.

    Subject to compliance with any applicable law or the rules of
    any applicable stock exchange, we may consummate this rights
    offering even if the underwriting agreement (as defined in the
    Singapore offer information statement) is terminated or the
    conditions precedent to the underwriting obligations of the
    underwriters under the underwriting agreement are not fulfilled
    or (if applicable) waived on or prior to the closing date of
    this rights offering.

 

    Appropriation

 

    Without prejudice to the foregoing, an entitled depositor should
    note that:

 

    (a) by accepting his provisional allotment of new ordinary
    shares
    and/or
    applying for excess ordinary shares, he acknowledges that, in
    the case where:

 

    (i) the amount of remittance payable to our company in
    respect of his acceptance of the new ordinary shares and (if
    applicable) in respect of his application for excess ordinary
    shares as per the instructions received by CDP on our
    company’s behalf whether under the ARE, the ARS
    and/or any
    other application form for new ordinary shares
    and/or
    excess ordinary shares, differs from the amount actually
    received by CDP, or

 

    (ii) the amount as stated in Section (A) and
    Section (B) in the ARE, Section (A) in the ARS
    and/or any
    other application form for new ordinary shares
    and/or
    excess ordinary shares differs from the amount received by CDP,
    or otherwise payable by him in respect of his acceptance of the
    new ordinary shares and (if applicable) in respect of his
    application for the excess ordinary shares,

 

    our company and CDP shall be entitled and deemed authorised to
    determine and appropriate all amounts received by CDP on our
    company’s behalf for each application on its own whether
    under the ARE, the ARS
    and/or any
    other application form for new ordinary shares
    and/or
    excess ordinary shares as follows: firstly, towards payment of
    all amounts payable in respect of his acceptance of the new
    ordinary shares; and secondly, (if applicable) towards payment
    of all amounts payable in respect of his application for excess
    ordinary shares. Without prejudice to the above, our company and
    CDP shall be entitled to make such appropriation for each
    application based on the amount received for that application,
    notwithstanding payment (or overpayment) made in that or other
    application(s). The determination and appropriation by our
    company
    and/or CDP
    shall be conclusive and binding; and

 

    (b) in the event that the entitled depositor accepts the
    new ordinary shares by way of the ARE
    and/or the
    ARS and/or
    applies for excess ordinary shares by way of the ARE and also by
    way of electronic application(s) through an ATM of a
    Participating Bank, our company
    and/or CDP
    shall be authorised and entitled to accept his instructions in
    whichever mode or combination as our company
    and/or CDP
    may, in their absolute discretion, deem fit. Without prejudice
    to the generality of the foregoing, in such a case, the entitled
    depositor shall be deemed as having irrevocably authorised our
    company
    and/or CDP
    to apply all amounts received whether under the ARE, the ARS
    and/or any
    other application form for new ordinary shares
    and/or
    excess application (including electronic application(s)) in
    whichever mode or combination as our company
    and/or CDP
    may, in their/its absolute discretion, deem fit.

 

    Unless expressly provided to the contrary in the Singapore offer
    information statement, the ARE
    and/or the
    ARS, a person who is not a party to any contracts made pursuant
    to the Singapore offer information statement, the ARE
    and/or the
    ARS has no rights under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties)
    Act, Chapter 53B of Singapore to enforce any term of such
    contracts. Notwithstanding any term contained herein or therein,
    the consent of any third party is not required for any
    subsequent agreement by the parties hereto or thereto to amend
    or vary (including any release or compromise of any liability)
    or terminate such contracts. Where third parties are conferred
    rights under such contracts, those rights are not assignable or
    transferable.

    Insufficient
    Payment

 

    The attention of the entitled depositor is drawn to the sections
    entitled “Introduction” and “Appropriation”
    of Part A of this instructions booklet which set out the
    circumstances and manner in which our company and CDP shall be
    entitled to determine and appropriate all amounts received by
    CDP on our company’s behalf whether under the ARE, the ARS
    or any other application form for new ordinary shares
    and/or
    excess ordinary shares.

 

		
	
    2.  
	
    Acceptance/Application
    by way of Electronic Application through an ATM of a
    Participating Bank

 

    Instructions for electronic applications through ATMs to accept
    the new ordinary shares provisionally allotted or (if
    applicable) to apply for excess ordinary shares will appear on
    the ATM screens of the respective Participating Banks.

 

    If an entitled depositor makes electronic application(s), he
    would have irrevocably authorised the Participating Bank to
    deduct the full amount payable from his bank account with such
    Participating Bank in respect of such application.

 

    In the case of an entitled depositor who has accepted the new
    ordinary shares by way of the ARE
    and/or the
    ARS and/or
    has applied for excess ordinary shares by way of the ARE and
    also by way of electronic application(s), our company
    and/or CDP
    shall be authorised and entitled to accept his instructions in
    whichever mode or combination as our company
    and/or CDP
    may, in their/its absolute discretion, deem fit. Without
    prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, in such a case,
    the entitled depositor shall be regarded as having irrevocably
    authorised our company
    and/or CDP
    to apply all amounts received whether under the ARE, the ARS
    and/or any
    other acceptance of new ordinary shares
    and/or
    application for excess ordinary shares

    (including electronic application(s)) in whichever mode or
    combination as our company
    and/or CDP
    may, in their/its absolute discretion, deem fit.

 

    Acceptance
    of Part of Provisional Allotments of New Ordinary Shares and
    Trading of Provisional Allotments of New Ordinary
    Shares

 

    An entitled depositor who wishes to accept part of his
    provisional allotment of new ordinary shares and trade the
    balance of his provisional allotment of new ordinary shares on
    the SGX-ST should:

 

    (a) complete the ARE for the number of new ordinary shares
    provisionally allotted which he wishes to accept and submit the
    duly completed and signed ARE together with payment in the
    manner as described above to CDP; or

 

    (b) accept and subscribe for that part of his provisional
    allotment of new ordinary shares by way of electronic
    application(s) through an ATM in the manner as described above.

 

    The balance of his provisional allotment of new ordinary shares
    may be sold as soon as dealings therein commence on the SGX-ST.

 

    Entitled depositors who wish to trade all or part of their
    provisional allotments of new ordinary shares on the SGX-ST
    during the ordinary share rights trading period from
    March 23, 2009 to March 31, 2009 should note that the
    provisional allotments of new ordinary shares will be tradeable
    in board lots, each board lot comprising provisional allotments
    of 1,000 new ordinary shares, or any other board lot size which
    the SGX-ST may require. Such entitled depositors may start
    trading their provisional allotments of new ordinary shares as
    soon as dealings therein commence on the SGX-ST.

 

    Upon the issuance and listing and quotation of the new ordinary
    shares on the Main Board of the
    SGX-ST,
    entitled depositors who hold odd lots of ordinary shares (that
    is, lots other than board lots of 1,000 ordinary shares) and who
    wish to trade in odd lots on the SGX-ST should note that they
    are able to trade odd lots of ordinary shares on the Unit Share
    Market. The Unit Share Market is a ready market for trading of
    odd lots of ordinary shares with a minimum size of one ordinary
    share.

 

    In addition, our company has applied for and obtained the
    approval of the
    SGX-ST for
    the establishment of a temporary counter to facilitate the
    trading of ordinary shares in board lots of 100 ordinary shares
    per board lot for a period of one month commencing on the first
    market day on which the new ordinary shares are listed for
    quotation on the Main Board of the
    SGX-ST. The
    temporary counter is of a provisional nature. Investors who
    continue to hold odd lots of less than 1,000 ordinary shares
    after one month from the listing of the new ordinary shares may
    face difficulty
    and/or have
    to bear disproportionate transactional costs in realising the
    fair market price of such ordinary shares.

 

    Purchasers
    of Provisional Allotments of New Ordinary Shares

 

    The ARE need not be forwarded to the purchasers of the
    provisional allotments of new ordinary shares through the
    book-entry (scripless) settlement system, or purchasers, as
    arrangements will be made by CDP for a separate application form
    for new ordinary shares, or ARS, to be issued to such
    purchasers. Such purchasers should note that CDP will, on behalf
    of our company, send the ARS accompanied by the Singapore offer
    information statement or the U.S. prospectus together with this
    instructions booklet by ordinary post to such purchasers and at
    such purchasers’ own risks, to their respective addresses
    in Singapore or the United States as recorded with CDP. Such
    purchasers should ensure that the ARS is accurately and
    correctly completed, failing which their acceptances of the
    provisional allotments of new ordinary shares may be rejected.
    Such purchasers who do not receive the ARS, accompanied by the
    Singapore offer information statement, may obtain the same from
    CDP, the Share Registrar or any stockbroking firm during the
    period up to 5.00 p.m. on April 6, 2009.

 

    The Singapore offer information statement, the U.S. prospectus
    together with this instructions booklet and their respective
    accompanying documents will not be despatched to purchasers
    whose registered addresses with CDP are not in Singapore or the
    United States, or foreign purchasers. Foreign purchasers may not
    accept any new ordinary shares credited to their Securities
    Accounts unless our company and our counsels are

    

    6

 

    satisfied that such action would not result in the contravention
    of any registration or other legal requirement in any
    jurisdiction. Purchasers are also advised to note the offering,
    selling and transfer restrictions set forth in the section
    entitled “The Offering — Offering, Selling and
    Transfer Restrictions” in the Singapore offer information
    statement.

 

    Purchasers should inform their finance companies or
    depository agents if their purchases of such provisional
    allotments of new ordinary shares are settled through the
    abovementioned intermediaries. In such instances, if the
    purchasers wish to accept the new ordinary shares represented by
    the provisional allotments purchased, they will need to go
    through these intermediaries who will then accept the
    provisional allotments of new ordinary shares on their
    behalf.

 

    Members of our company under the CPF Investment
    Scheme — Ordinary Account, or CPFIS members, may use,
    subject to applicable rules and regulations of the Central
    Provident Fund, or CPF, their CPF account savings, or CPF funds,
    for the payment of the new ordinary shares and (if applicable)
    apply for excess ordinary shares, if they have previously bought
    their ordinary shares using CPF funds. CPFIS Members who wish to
    accept their provisional allotments of new ordinary shares and
    (if applicable) apply for excess ordinary shares using CPF funds
    will need to instruct their respective approved banks, where
    such CPFIS Members hold their CPF investment accounts, to accept
    the provisional allotments of new ordinary shares and (if
    applicable) apply for the excess ordinary shares on their behalf
    in accordance with the Singapore offer information statement.
    CPF funds may not, however, be used for the purchase of the
    provisional allotments of new ordinary shares directly from the
    market.

 

    In the event that the entitled depositor or the purchaser
    accepts the ordinary shares provisionally allotted to him by way
    of the ARE
    and/or the
    ARS and/or
    applies for excess ordinary shares by way of the ARE and also by
    way of electronic application(s), our company
    and/or CDP
    shall be authorised and entitled to accept his instructions in
    whichever mode or combination as our company
    and/or CDP
    may, in their/its absolute discretion, deem fit. Without
    prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, in such a case,
    the entitled depositor or the purchaser shall be regarded as
    having irrevocably authorised our company
    and/or CDP
    to apply all amounts received whether under the ARE, the ARS
    and/or any
    other acceptance of ordinary shares provisionally allotted to
    him and (if applicable) application for excess ordinary shares
    (including electronic application(s)) in whichever mode or
    combination as our company
    and/or CDP
    may, in their/its absolute discretion, deem fit.

    As an illustration, if an entitled depositor has 1,000 ordinary

    share rights trading period.

	
 
	
 
	
 
	
 
	
 

	
 
	
 
	

	
 
	
    During the ordinary share rights trading period, entitled
    depositors should note that the provisional allotments of new
    ordinary shares will be tradeable in the ready market, with each
    board lot comprising provisional allotments of 1,000 new
    ordinary shares or any other board lot size which the SGX-ST may
    require.

	
 
	
 
	
 
	
 
	
 

	
 
	
 
	

	
 
	
    Upon the issuance and listing and quotation of the new
    ordinary shares on the Main Board of the SGX-ST, entitled
    depositors who hold odd lots of ordinary shares (that is, lots
    other than board lots of 1,000 ordinary shares) and who wish to
    trade in odd lots on the SGX-ST should note that they are able
    to trade odd lots of ordinary shares on the Unit Share Market.
    The Unit Share Market is a ready market for trading of odd lots
    of ordinary shares with a minimum size of one ordinary share
    each.

	
 
	
 
	
 
	
 
	
 

	
 
	
 
	

	
 
	
    In addition, our company has applied for and obtained the
    approval of the SGX-ST for the establishment of a temporary
    counter to facilitate the trading of ordinary shares in board
    lots of 100 ordinary shares per board lot for a period of one
    month commencing on the first market day on which the new
    ordinary shares are listed for quotation on the Main Board of
    the SGX-ST. The temporary counter is of a provisional nature.
    Investors who continue to hold odd lots of less than 1,000
    ordinary shares after one month from the listing of the new
    ordinary shares may face difficulty and/or have to bear
    disproportionate transactional costs in realising the fair
    market price of such ordinary shares.

    Timing
    and Other Important Information

 

    THE FINAL TIME AND DATE FOR ACCEPTANCES AND (IF APPLICABLE)
    EXCESS APPLICATIONS AND PAYMENT FOR THE NEW ORDINARY SHARES
    UNDER THIS RIGHTS OFFERING IS:

 

    (A) 5.00 P.M. ON APRIL 6, 2009 IF AN
    ACCEPTANCE AND (IF APPLICABLE) EXCESS APPLICATION AND PAYMENT IS
    MADE THROUGH CDP; AND

 

    (B) 9.30 P.M. ON APRIL 6, 2009 IF AN
    ACCEPTANCE AND (IF APPLICABLE) EXCESS APPLICATION AND PAYMENT IS
    MADE BY WAY OF ELECTRONIC APPLICATION(S).

 

    If acceptance and payment for the new ordinary shares in the
    prescribed manner as set out in the ARE/ARS, the Singapore offer
    information statement and (if applicable) our Memorandum and
    Articles of Association, is not received through CDP by
    5.00 p.m. on April 6, 2009 or electronic
    application(s) by 9.30 p.m. on April 6, 2009
    from any entitled depositor or purchaser, the new ordinary
    shares provisionally allotted to that entitled depositor or
    purchaser shall be deemed to have been declined and shall
    forthwith lapse and become void, and cease to be capable of
    acceptance and such provisional allotments not so accepted will
    be used to satisfy excess applications, if any, or otherwise
    dealt with in such manner as our directors may, in their
    absolute discretion, deem fit in the interests of our company.

 

    If any entitled depositor or purchaser is in any doubt as to
    the action he should take, he should consult his stockbroker,
    bank manager, accountant, solicitor or any other professional
    adviser immediately.

 

    Application
    for Excess Ordinary Shares

 

    The excess ordinary shares available for application are subject
    to the terms and conditions contained in the Singapore offer
    information statement, (if applicable) our Memorandum and
    Articles of Association and the ARE. Applications for excess
    ordinary shares will, at our directors’ absolute
    discretion, be satisfied from such new ordinary shares as are
    not validly taken up by the entitled depositors or the
    purchasers of the provisional allotments of new ordinary shares,
    the entitled scripholders or their renouncees, the new ordinary
    shares underlying disregarded fractional entitlements, unsold
    “nil-paid” provisional allotments of new ordinary
    shares (if any) of ineligible shareholders and any new ordinary
    shares that are otherwise not taken up for whatever reason, in
    accordance with the terms and conditions contained in the ARE,
    ARS and/or
    PAL, Form E, the Singapore offer information statement and
    (if applicable) our Memorandum and Articles of Association. If
    the aggregate number of excess ordinary shares available for
    subscription (either directly or in the form of ADSs) is less
    than the aggregate number of excess ordinary shares so
    subscribed for, we will allocate the available excess ordinary
    shares to holders who have applied to subscribe for such excess
    ordinary shares. Such allocation will be made at the discretion
    of our company primarily based on each applicant’s relative
    shareholding in our company as of the ordinary share books
    closure date and the ADS record date, respectively, provided
    that no applicant for excess ordinary shares shall be allocated
    more excess ordinary shares than the number for which they have
    applied. Priority will be given to the rounding of odd lots but
    otherwise, no distinction will be made between directors,
    substantial shareholders, other shareholders of our company and
    other applicants for excess ordinary shares. Our directors
    reserve the right to reject any application for excess ordinary
    shares in whole or in part without giving any reason whatsoever
    therefor. CDP takes no responsibility for any decisions that our
    directors may make. In the event that the number of excess
    ordinary shares allotted to the entitled depositor is less than
    the number of excess ordinary shares applied for, the entitled
    depositor shall be deemed to have accepted the number of excess
    ordinary shares actually allotted to him.

 

    If no excess ordinary shares are allotted or if the number of
    excess ordinary shares allotted is less than that applied for,
    the amount paid on application or the surplus application
    monies, as the case may be, will be returned or refunded to such
    entitled depositors, without interest or any share of revenue or
    other benefit arising therefrom within 14 days of the last
    time and date for acceptance, excess application and payment for
    the new ordinary shares on April 6, 2009, by any one or a
    combination of the following: (a) by crediting their

    

    10

 

    accounts with the relevant Participating Banks (if they apply by
    way of electronic application(s) through the ATMs of the
    Participating Banks) at their own risk, the receipt by such
    Participating Bank being a good discharge to CDP, our company
    and the joint lead managers and underwriters for their
    obligations, if any, hereunder and thereunder, or (b) by
    means of a crossed cheque drawn on a bank in Singapore and sent
    to them at their mailing addresses as maintained with CDP or in
    such other manner as they may have agreed with CDP for the
    payment of any cash distributions, BY ORDINARY POST (if they

    Additional
    Terms and Conditions for Electronic Applications through an ATM
    of a Participating Bank

 

    The procedures for electronic applications at ATMs of the
    Participating Banks, or the steps, are set out on the ATM
    screens of the relevant Participating Banks. Please read
    carefully the terms and conditions of the Singapore offer
    information statement, the instructions set out on the ATM
    screens of the relevant Participating Banks and the terms and
    conditions for electronic applications set out in the Singapore
    offer

    

    11

 

    information statement before making an electronic application.
    An ATM card issued by one Participating Bank cannot be used in
    respect of the acceptance of and (if applicable) the excess
    application for new ordinary shares at an ATM belonging to other
    Participating Banks. Any electronic application which does not
    strictly conform to the instructions set out on the screens of
    the ATM through which the electronic application is made will be
    rejected.

 

    Any reference to the “Applicant” in the terms and
    conditions for electronic applications and the steps shall mean
    the entitled depositor or his renouncee or the purchaser who
    accepts or (as the case may be) who applies for the new ordinary
    shares through an ATM of the Participating Banks. An Applicant
    must have an existing bank account with and be an ATM cardholder
    of one of the Participating Banks before he can make an
    electronic application at the ATM of that Participating Bank.
    The actions that the Applicant must take at ATMs of the
    Participating Banks are set out on the ATM screens of the
    relevant Participating Banks. Upon the completion of his
    electronic application transaction, the Applicant will receive
    an ATM transaction slip, confirming the details of his
    electronic application. That ATM transaction slip is for
    retention by the Applicant and should not be submitted with any
    printed application form.

 

    An Applicant, including one who has a joint bank account with
    a Participating Bank, must ensure that he enters his own
    Securities Account number when using the ATM card issued to him
    in his own name. Using his own Securities Account number with an
    ATM card which is not issued to him in his own name will render
    his acceptance or (as the case may be) application liable to be
    rejected.

 

    The electronic application shall be made in accordance with, and
    subject to, the terms and conditions of the Singapore offer
    information statement including but not limited to the terms and
    conditions appearing below:

 

    1. In connection with his electronic application for the
    new ordinary shares, the Applicant is required to confirm
    statements to the following effect in the course of activating
    the ATM for his electronic application:

 

    (a) that he has received a copy of the Singapore offer
    information statement and has read, understood and agreed to all
    the terms and conditions of acceptance of the new ordinary
    shares provisionally allotted to him and (if applicable)
    application for the excess ordinary shares under this rights
    offering and the Singapore offer information statement prior to
    effecting the electronic application and agrees to be bound by
    the same; and

 

    (b) that he authorises CDP to give, provide, divulge,
    disclose or reveal any information pertaining to his Securities
    Account maintained in CDP’s record, including without
    limitation, his name(s), his NRIC number(s) or passport
    number(s), Securities Account number, address(es), the number of
    ordinary shares standing to the credit of his Securities
    Account(s), the number of new ordinary shares provisionally
    allotted to him, his acceptance of his provisional allotment of
    new ordinary shares and (if applicable) application for excess
    ordinary shares and any other information to our company, the
    joint lead managers and underwriters, and any other relevant
    parties, collectively, the relevant parties, as CDP may deem fit
    for the purpose of this rights offering and his acceptance of
    his provisional allotment of new ordinary shares and (if
    applicable) application for excess ordinary shares.

 

    His application will not be successfully completed and cannot be
    recorded as a completed transaction in the ATM unless he presses
    the “Enter”, “OK”, “Confirm” or
    “Yes” key, as the case may be. By doing so, the
    Applicant shall be treated as signifying his confirmation of
    each of the two statements above. In respect of statement 1(b)
    above, his confirmation, by pressing the “Enter”,
    “OK”, “Confirm” or “Yes” key, as
    the case may be, shall signify and shall be treated as his
    written permission, given in accordance with the relevant laws
    of Singapore including Section 47(2) and the Third Schedule
    to the Banking Act, Chapter 19 of Singapore, to the
    disclosure by that Participating Bank of the relevant
    particulars of his account to the relevant parties.

    

    12

 

    2. An Applicant may make an electronic application at an
    ATM of any Participating Bank for the new ordinary shares using
    cash only by authorising such Participating Bank to deduct the
    full amount payable from his account with such Participating
    Bank.

 

    3. The Applicant irrevocably agrees and undertakes to
    subscribe for and to accept up to the aggregate of the number of
    new ordinary shares provisionally allotted and excess ordinary
    shares applied for as stated on the ATM transaction slip or the
    number of new ordinary shares standing to the credit of the
    “Free Balance” of his Securities Account as at the
    close of the ordinary share subscription period. In the event
    that our company decides to allot any lesser number of excess
    ordinary shares or not to allot any number of excess ordinary
    shares to the Applicant, the Applicant agrees to accept the
    decision as conclusive and binding.

 

    4. If the Applicant’s electronic application is
    successful, his confirmation (by his action of pressing the
    “Enter”, “OK”, “Confirm” or
    “Yes” key, as the case may be, on the ATM) of the
    number of new ordinary shares accepted and (if applicable)
    excess ordinary shares applied for shall signify and shall be
    treated as his acceptance of the number of new ordinary shares
    and excess ordinary shares that may be allotted to him.

 

    5. In the event that the Applicant accepts the new ordinary
    shares both by way of ARE
    and/or ARS
    and also by way of electronic application(s) through the ATM of
    a Participating Bank, our company
    and/or CDP
    shall be authorised and entitled to accept the Applicant’s
    instructions in whichever mode or a combination thereof as our
    company
    and/or CDP
    may, in their/its absolute discretion, deem fit. In determining
    the number of new ordinary shares which the Applicant has
    validly given instructions to accept, the Applicant shall be
    deemed to have irrevocably given instructions to accept the
    lesser of the number of provisionally allotted new ordinary
    shares which are standing to the credit of the “Free
    Balance” of his Securities Account as at the close of the
    ordinary share subscription period and the aggregate number of
    new ordinary shares which have been accepted by the Applicant by
    way of the ARE
    and/or the
    ARS (as the case may be) and any electronic application through
    an ATM. Our company
    and/or CDP,
    in determining the number of new ordinary shares which the
    Applicant has validly given instructions to accept, shall be
    authorised and entitled to have regard to the aggregate amount
    of payment received for the acceptance of new ordinary shares,
    whether by way of cashier’s order or banker’s draft
    drawn on a bank in Singapore accompanying the ARE
    and/or ARS
    or by way of the acceptance through electronic application(s)
    through the ATM of a Participating Bank, which the Applicant has
    authorised or deemed to have authorised to be applied towards
    the payment in respect of the Applicant’s acceptance.

 

    6. If applicable, in the event that the Applicant applies
    for excess ordinary shares by way of the ARE
    and/or by
    way of electronic application(s) through the ATM of a
    Participating Bank, our company
    and/or CDP
    shall be authorised and entitled to accept the Applicant’s
    instructions in whichever mode or a combination thereof as our
    company
    and/or CDP
    may, in their/its absolute discretion, deem fit. In determining
    the number of excess ordinary shares which the Applicant has
    validly given instructions for the application of, the Applicant
    shall be deemed to have irrevocably given instructions to apply
    for and agreed to accept such number of excess ordinary shares
    not exceeding the aggregate number of excess ordinary shares for
    which he has applied by way of application through electronic
    application(s) through the ATM of a Participating Bank and by
    way of the ARE. Our company
    and/or CDP,
    in determining the number of excess ordinary shares which the
    Applicant has given valid instructions for application, shall be
    authorised and entitled to have regard to the aggregate amount
    of payment received for the application of the excess ordinary
    shares, whether by way of cashier’s order or banker’s
    draft drawn on a bank in Singapore accompanying the ARE or by
    way of electronic application(s) through the ATM of a
    Participating Bank, which the Applicant has authorised or deemed
    to have authorised to be applied towards the payment in respect
    of the Applicant’s excess application.

 

    7. The Applicant irrevocably requests and authorises our
    company to:

 

    (a) register or to procure the registration of the new
    ordinary shares and (if applicable) the excess ordinary shares
    allotted to the Applicant in the name of CDP for deposit into
    his Securities Account;

    

    13

 

    (b) return or refund (without interest or any share of
    revenue or other benefit arising therefrom) the
    acceptance/application monies, should his electronic
    application(s) to accept his provisionally allotted new ordinary
    shares and (if applicable) excess application not be accepted by
    our company for any reason, by automatically crediting the
    Applicant’s bank account with his Participating Bank with
    the relevant amount within 14 days of the last time and
    date for acceptance, excess application and payment for the new
    ordinary shares on April 6, 2009; and

 

    (c) return or refund (without interest or any share of
    revenue or other benefit arising therefrom) the balance of the
    application monies, should his electronic application(s) for
    excess ordinary shares be accepted in part only, by
    automatically crediting the Applicant’s bank account with
    his Participating Bank with the relevant amount within
    14 days of the last time and date for acceptance, excess
    application and payment for the new ordinary shares on
    April 6, 2009.

 

    8. BY MAKING AN ELECTRONIC APPLICATION, THE APPLICANT
    CONFIRMS THAT HE IS NOT ACCEPTING HIS PROVISIONAL ALLOTMENT OF
    NEW ORDINARY SHARES AND (IF APPLICABLE) APPLYING FOR THE EXCESS
    ORDINARY SHARES AS A NOMINEE OF ANY OTHER PERSON.

 

    9. The Applicant irrevocably agrees and acknowledges that
    his electronic application is subject to risks of electrical,
    electronic, technical and computer-related faults and
    breakdowns, fires, acts of God, mistakes, losses and theft (in
    each case whether or not within the control of our company, CDP,
    the CPF board of Singapore, or CPF board, the Participating
    Banks, the joint lead managers and underwriters
    and/or our
    Share Registrar) and any other events whatsoever beyond the
    control of our company, CDP, the CPF board, the Participating
    Banks, the joint lead managers and underwriters,
    and/or our
    Share Registrar and if, in any such event, our company, CDP, the
    CPF board, the Participating Banks, the joint lead managers and
    underwriters
    and/or our
    Share Registrar do not record or receive the Applicant’s
    electronic application by 9.30 p.m. on April 6,
    2009, or such data or tape containing such data is lost,
    corrupted, destroyed or not otherwise accessible, whether wholly
    or partially for whatever reason, the Applicant shall be deemed
    not to have made an electronic application and the Applicant
    shall have no claim whatsoever against our company, CDP, the CPF
    board, the Participating Banks, the joint lead managers and
    underwriters or our Share Registrar in respect of any purported
    acceptance thereof and (if applicable) excess application
    therefor, or for any compensation, loss or damages in connection
    therewith or in relation thereto.

 

    10. Electronic applications may only be made at the ATMs
    of the Participating Banks from Mondays to Saturdays between
    7.00 a.m. to 9.30 p.m., excluding public holidays.

 

    11. Electronic applications shall close at
    9.30 p.m. on April 6, 2009 or such later time
    or date as our directors may, in their absolute discretion,
    decide.

 

    12. All particulars of the Applicant in the records of his
    Participating Bank at the time he makes his electronic
    application shall be deemed to be true and correct and the
    relevant Participating Bank and the relevant parties shall be
    entitled to rely on the accuracy thereof. If there has been any
    change in the particulars of the Applicant after the time of the
    making of his electronic application, the Applicant shall
    promptly notify his Participating Bank.

 

    13. The Applicant must have sufficient funds in his bank
    account(s) with his Participating Bank at the time he makes his
    electronic application, failing which his electronic application
    will not be completed. Any electronic application made at the
    ATMs of the Participating Banks which does not strictly conform
    to the instructions set out on the ATM screens of such
    Participating Banks will be rejected.

 

    14. Where an electronic application is not accepted, it is
    expected that the full amount of the acceptance/application
    monies will be returned or refunded in Singapore dollars
    (without interest or any share of revenue or other benefit
    arising therefrom) to the Applicant by being automatically
    credited to the Applicant’s account with the relevant
    Participating Bank within 14 days of the last time and date
    for acceptance, excess application and payment for the new
    ordinary shares on April 6, 2009. An electronic

    

    14

 

    application may also be accepted in part, in which case the
    balance amount of acceptance/application monies will be returned
    or refunded on the same terms.

 

    15. In consideration of our company arranging for the
    electronic application facility through the ATMs of the
    Participating Banks and agreeing to the expiry of the ordinary
    share subscription period at 9.30 p.m. on April 6,
    2009 or such later time or date as our directors may, in
    their absolute discretion, decide, and by making and completing
    an electronic application, the Applicant agrees that:

 

    (a) his electronic application is irrevocable (whether or
    not, to the extent permitted by law, any supplementary document
    or replacement document is lodged with the Authority);

 

    (b) his electronic application, the acceptance by our
    company and the contract resulting therefrom shall be governed
    by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of Singapore and
    he irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the
    Singapore courts;

 

    (c) none of our company, CDP, the CPF board, the joint lead
    managers and underwriters, the Share Registrar nor the
    Participating Banks shall be liable for any delays, failures or
    inaccuracies in the recording, storage, or in the transmission
    or delivery of data relating to his electronic application to
    our company or CDP due to a breakdown or failure of
    transmission, delivery or communication facilities or any risks
    referred to in paragraph 9 above or to any cause beyond
    their respective control;

 

    (d) he will not be entitled to exercise any remedy of
    rescission for misrepresentation at any time after acceptance of
    his provisional allotment of new ordinary shares and (if
    applicable) his application for excess ordinary shares;

 

    (e) in respect of the new ordinary shares for which his
    electronic application has been successfully completed and not
    rejected, acceptance of the Applicant’s electronic
    application shall be constituted by written notification by or
    on behalf of our company and not otherwise, notwithstanding any
    payment received by or on behalf of our company; and

 

    (f) unless expressly provided to the contrary in the
    Singapore offer information statement
    and/or the
    electronic application, a person who is not a party to any
    contracts made pursuant to the Singapore offer information
    statement
    and/or the
    electronic application has no rights under the Contracts (Rights
    of Third Parties) Act, Chapter 53B of Singapore, to enforce
    any term of such contracts. Notwithstanding any term contained
    herein or therein, the consent of any third party is not
    required for any subsequent agreement by the parties hereto or
    thereto to amend or vary (including any release or compromise of
    any liability) or terminate such contracts. Where third parties
    are conferred rights under such contracts, those rights are not
    assignable or transferable.

 

    16. The Applicant should ensure that his personal
    particulars, as recorded by both CDP and the relevant
    Participating Banks, are correct and identical, otherwise, his
    electronic application may be liable to be rejected. The
    Applicant should promptly inform CDP of any change in his
    address, failing which the notification letter on successful
    allotment and other correspondence will be sent to his address

    have agreed with CDP for the payment of any cash distributions
    without interest or any share of revenue or other benefit
    arising therefrom, if he accepts and (if applicable) applies
    through CDP; and

 

    (b) by crediting the Applicant’s bank account with the
    relevant Participating Bank at his own risk if he accepts and
    (if applicable) applies through an ATM, the receipt by such

    19. The Applicant hereby acknowledges that, in determining

    authorises our company, the joint lead managers and underwriters
    and CDP to take into consideration:

 

    (a) the total number of new ordinary shares represented by
    the provisional allotment which the Applicant has validly
    accepted, whether under the ARE, the ARS,
    and/or any
    other form of application (including electronic application
    through the ATM) for the new ordinary shares
    and/or the
    excess ordinary shares;

 

    (b) the total number of new ordinary shares represented by
    the provisional allotment standing to the credit of the

    conclusive and binding on him.

 

    20. The Applicant irrevocably requests and authorises CDP
    to accept instructions from the Participating Bank through whom
    the electronic application is made in respect of the provisional
    allotment of new ordinary shares accepted by the Applicant and
    (if applicable) the excess ordinary shares which the Applicant
    has applied for.

 

    21. Where any acceptance
    and/or
    application
    and/or
    payment does not conform strictly to the instructions set out
    under the Singapore offer information statement, the ARE, the
    ARS, the provisional allotment letter, or PAL,
    and/or any
    other application form for new ordinary shares
    and/or
    excess ordinary shares, or is illegible, incomplete or
    incorrectly completed or is accompanied by an improperly or
    insufficiently drawn remittance or does not comply with the
    instructions for electronic application, or where the “Free
    Balance” of the entitled depositor’s or the
    purchaser’s (as the case may be) Securities Account is not
    credited, with or is credited with less than the relevant number
    of new ordinary shares accepted as at the last time and date for
    acceptance, excess application and payment for the new ordinary
    shares, our company
    and/or CDP
    may, at their/its absolute discretion, reject or treat as
    invalid any such acceptance, application, payment
    and/or other
    process of remittance at any time after receipt in such manner
    as they/it may deem fit.

 

    Our company
    and/or CDP
    shall be entitled to process each application submitted for the
    acceptance of new ordinary shares, and where applicable, excess
    application and the payment received in relation thereto,
    pursuant to such application, by an Applicant, on its own,
    without regard to any other application and payment that may be
    submitted by the same Applicant. For the avoidance of doubt,
    insufficient payment for an application may render the
    application invalid. Evidence of payment (or overpayment) in
    other applications shall not constitute, or be construed as, an
    affirmation of such invalid acceptance of new ordinary shares
    and (if applicable) application for excess ordinary shares.

    the Share Registrar as at the ordinary shares books closure date
    is in Singapore, or if they had, at least three market days

    to the ordinary shares books closure date, provided the Share
    Registrar with an address in United States for the service of
    notices or documents) together with the following documents
    which are enclosed with, and are deemed to constitute a part of,
    the Singapore offer information statement:

 

    The PAL, incorporating:

 

	 	 	 
	

    Form of Acceptance

	
 
	
    Form A

	

    Request for Splitting

    Form C

	

    Form of Nomination

	
 
	
    Form D

	

    Excess Ordinary Shares Application Form

	
 
	
    Form E

 

    The provisional allotment of the new ordinary shares and
    application for excess ordinary shares are governed by the terms
    and conditions of the Singapore offer information statement, (if
    applicable) our Memorandum and Articles of Association and the
    enclosed PAL. The number of new ordinary shares provisionally
    allotted to entitled scripholders is indicated in the PAL.
    Entitled scripholders may accept their provisional allotments of
    new ordinary shares in full or in part and are eligible to apply
    for new ordinary shares in excess of their entitlements under
    this rights offering. Full instructions for the acceptance of
    and payment for the new ordinary shares provisionally allotted
    to entitled scripholders and the procedures to be adopted should
    they wish to renounce, transfer or split their provisional
    allotments are set out in the PAL.

 

    Where any acceptance, (if applicable) excess application
    and/or
    payment does not conform strictly to the instructions set out
    under the Singapore offer information statement, the PAL
    and/or any
    other application form for new ordinary shares
    and/or
    excess ordinary shares or where any acceptance and (if
    applicable) excess application is illegible, incomplete,
    incorrectly completed or accompanied by an improperly or
    insufficiently drawn remittance, our company
    and/or the
    Share Registrar may, at their/its absolute discretion, reject or
    treat as invalid any such acceptance, excess application,
    payment
    and/or other
    process of remittance at any time after receipt in such manner
    as they/it may deem fit.

 

    Our company
    and/or the
    Share Registrar shall be entitled to process each application
    submitted by an entitled scripholder or renouncee (as defined
    below) for the acceptance of his provisional allotment of new
    ordinary shares and (if applicable) excess application in
    relation to this rights offering and the payment received in
    relation thereto on its own, without regard to any other
    application and payment that may be submitted by the same
    entitled scripholder or renouncee. For the avoidance of doubt,
    insufficient payment for an application may render the
    application invalid. Evidence of payment (or overpayment) in
    other applications shall not constitute, or be construed as, an
    affirmation of such invalid acceptance of new ordinary shares
    and (if applicable) excess application.

 

    Entitled scripholders who intend to trade any part of their
    provisional allotment of the new ordinary shares on the SGX-ST
    should note that all dealings in and transactions of the
    provisional allotment of new ordinary shares through the SGX-ST
    will be effected under the book-entry (scripless) settlement
    system. Accordingly, the PALs will not be valid for delivery
    pursuant to trades done on the SGX-ST.

 

    Subject to compliance with any applicable law or the rules of
    any applicable stock exchange, we may consummate this rights
    offering even if the underwriting agreement (as defined in the
    Singapore offer

    

    17

 

    information statement) is terminated or the conditions precedent
    to the underwriting obligations of the underwriters under the
    underwriting agreement are not fulfilled or (if applicable)
    waived on or prior to the closing date of this rights offering.

 

    Unless expressly provided to the contrary in the Singapore offer
    information statement
    and/or the
    PAL, a person who is not a party to any contracts made pursuant
    to the Singapore offer information statement
    and/or the
    PAL has no rights under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties)
    Act, Chapter 53B of Singapore, to enforce any term of such
    contracts. Notwithstanding any term contained herein or therein,
    the consent of any third party is not required for any
    subsequent agreement by the parties hereto or thereto to amend
    or vary (including any release or compromise of any liability)
    or terminate such contracts. Where third parties are conferred
    rights under such contracts, those rights are not assignable or
    transferable.

    If acceptance and (if applicable) excess application and payment
    in the prescribed manner as set out in the Singapore offer
    information statement and the PAL is not received by
    5.00 p.m. on April 6, 2009, the provisional
    allotments of new ordinary shares will be deemed to have been
    declined and will forthwith lapse and become void, and cease to
    be capable of acceptance, and such provisional allotments not so
    accepted will be used to satisfy excess applications, if any, or
    disposed of or dealt with in such manner as our directors may,
    in their absolute discretion, deem fit in the interests of our
    company. Our company will return or refund all unsuccessful
    acceptance and (if applicable) application monies received in
    connection therewith BY ORDINARY POST and at the risk of the
    entitled scripholders or their renouncee(s), as the case may be,
    without interest or any share of revenue or benefit arising
    therefrom within 14 days of the last time and date for
    acceptance, excess application and payment for the new ordinary
    shares on April 6, 2009.

 

    Application
    for Excess Ordinary Shares (Form E)

 

    Entitled scripholders who wish to apply for excess ordinary
    shares in addition to those which have been provisionally
    allotted to them may do so by completing the Excess Ordinary
    Shares Application Form (Form E) of the PAL and
    forwarding it with A SEPARATE REMITTANCE for the full
    amount payable in respect of the excess ordinary shares in the
    form and manner set out above, at their own risk, to
    CHARTERED SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING LTD. C/O THE SHARE
    REGISTRAR, M & C SERVICES PRIVATE LIMITED at 138
    ROBINSON ROAD, #17-00 THE CORPORATE OFFICE, SINGAPORE
    068906 so as to arrive not later than 5.00 p.m. on
    APRIL 6, 2009. NO OTHER 

    

    19

 

    FORM OF PAYMENT (INCLUDING THE USE OF A PERSONAL CHEQUE,
    POSTAL ORDER OR MONEY ORDER ISSUED BY A POST OFFICE IN
    SINGAPORE) WILL BE ACCEPTED.

 

    Applications for the excess ordinary shares are subject to the
    terms and conditions contained in the PAL, Form E, the
    Singapore offer information statement and (if applicable) our
    Memorandum and Articles of Association. Applications for excess
    ordinary shares will, at our directors’ absolute
    discretion, be satisfied from such new ordinary shares as are
    not validly taken up by the entitled depositors or the
    purchasers of the provisional allotments of new ordinary shares,
    the entitled scripholders or their renouncees, the new ordinary
    shares underlying disregarded fractional entitlements, the
    unsold “nil-paid” provisional allotments of new
    ordinary shares (if any) of ineligible shareholders and any new
    ordinary shares that are otherwise not taken up for whatever
    reason in accordance with the terms and conditions contained in
    the ARE, ARS
    and/or PAL,
    Form E, the Singapore offer information statement and (if
    applicable) our Memorandum and Articles of Association. If the
    aggregate number of excess ordinary shares available for
    subscription (either directly or in the form of ADSs) is less
    than the aggregate number of excess ordinary shares so
    subscribed for, we will allocate the available excess ordinary
    shares to holders who have applied to subscribe for such excess
    ordinary shares. Such allocation will be made at our discretion
    primarily based on each applicant’s relative shareholding
    in our company as of the ordinary share books closure date and
    ADS record date, respectively, provided that no applicant for
    excess ordinary shares shall be allocated more excess ordinary
    shares than the number for which they have applied. Priority
    will be given to the rounding of odd lots but otherwise, no
    distinction will be made between directors, substantial
    shareholders, other shareholders of our company and other
    applicants for excess ordinary shares. Our directors reserve the
    right to allot the excess ordinary shares applied for under the
    Form E in any manner they deem fit and to reject, in whole
    or in part, any application for excess ordinary shares without
    giving any reason whatsoever. In the event that the number of
    excess ordinary shares allotted to the entitled scripholder is
    less than the number of excess ordinary shares applied for, the
    entitled scripholder shall be deemed to have accepted the number
    of excess ordinary shares actually allotted to him.

 

    If no excess ordinary shares are allotted to entitled
    scripholders or if the number of excess ordinary shares allotted
    to them is less than that applied for, it is expected that the
    remittance submitted on application or the surplus application
    monies, as the case may be, will be returned or refunded to them
    by our company without interest or any share of revenue or other
    benefit arising therefrom, by means of a crossed cheque drawn on
    a bank in Singapore and sent to them at their mailing addresses
    as maintained with our Share Registrar, within 14 days of
    the last time and date for acceptance, excess application and
    payment for the new ordinary shares at 5.00 p.m. on
    April 6, 2009, BY ORDINARY POST at their own risk. In
    determining the amount of surplus application monies to be
    refunded, the aggregate amount payable for the excess ordinary
    shares allotted to an entitled scripholder will be rounded
    upwards to the nearest whole cent.

 

    General

 

    No acknowledgements or receipts will be issued in respect of any
    acceptances, remittances or applications.

 

    Entitled scripholders who are in doubt as to the action they
    should take should consult their stockbroker, bank manager,
    solicitor, accountant or other professional adviser
    immediately.

 

    Upon the listing and quotation on the Official List of the
    SGX-ST, any trading of new ordinary shares on the SGX-ST will be
    via the book-entry (scripless) settlement system. All dealings
    in, and transactions (including transfers) of, the new ordinary
    shares effected through the SGX-ST
    and/or CDP
    shall be in accordance with CDP’s “Terms and
    Conditions for Operation of Securities Accounts with The Central
    Depository (Pte) Limited” and “Terms And Conditions
    for The Central Depository (Pte) Limited to Act as Depository
    for The Rights Shares”, as the same may be amended from
    time to time, copies of which are available from CDP.

 

    Entitled scripholders and their renouncees who wish to accept
    the new ordinary shares provisionally allotted to them and (if
    applicable) apply for excess ordinary shares, and who wish to
    trade the new ordinary shares issued to them on the SGX-ST under
    the book-entry (scripless) settlement 

    

    20

 

    system, should open and maintain Securities Accounts with CDP
    in their own names (if they do not already maintain such
    Securities Accounts) before accepting any new ordinary shares or
    applying for any excess ordinary shares, in order for the new
    ordinary shares and, if applicable, the excess ordinary shares
    that may be allotted to them to their Securities Accounts.
    Entitled scripholders and their renouncees who wish to accept
    and/or apply
    for the excess ordinary shares and have their new ordinary
    shares credited into their Securities Accounts must fill in
    their Securities Account numbers
    and/or
    National Registration Identity Card, or NRIC, or passport
    numbers (for individuals) or registration numbers (for
    corporations) in the relevant forms comprised in the PAL.
    Entitled scripholders and their renouncees who fail to fill in
    their Securities Account numbers
    and/or
    NRIC/passport numbers (for individuals) or registration numbers
    (for corporations) or who provide incorrect or invalid
    Securities Account numbers
    and/or
    NRIC/passport numbers (for individuals) or registration numbers
    (for corporations) or whose particulars provided in the forms
    comprised in the PAL differ from those particulars in their
    Securities Accounts maintained with CDP will be issued physical
    share certificates in their own names for the new ordinary
    shares allotted to them and if applicable, the excess ordinary
    shares allotted to them. Such physical share certificates, if
    issued, will be forwarded to them by ordinary post at their own
    risk and will not be valid for delivery pursuant to trades done
    on the SGX-ST under the book-entry (scripless) settlement
    system, although they will continue to be prima facie
    evidence of legal title.

 

    If the entitled scripholders’ addresses stated in the PALs
    are different from their addresses registered with CDP, they
    must inform CDP of their updated addresses promptly, failing
    which the notification letters, on successful allotments will be
    sent to their addresses last registered with CDP.

 

    A holder of physical share certificate(s), or an entitled
    scripholder who has not deposited his share certificate(s) with
    CDP but who wishes to trade on the SGX-ST, must deposit with CDP
    his existing share certificate(s), together with the duly
    executed instrument(s) of transfer in favour of CDP, and have
    his Securities Account credited with the number of new ordinary
    shares or existing ordinary shares, as the case may be, before
    he can effect the desired trade.

 

    THE LAST TIME AND DATE FOR ACCEPTANCES, EXCESS APPLICATIONS
    AND PAYMENT FOR THE NEW ORDINARY SHARES AND/OR EXCESS ORDINARY
    SHARES IS 5.00 P.M. ON APRIL 6, 2009.
