Subject of the Disclosure

Property Dividend Distribution Update

Background/Description of the Disclosure

Further to our disclosures on 29 April 2022, 12 May 2022, 23 May 2022, 27 September 2022, 24 October 2022, and 4 January 2023, the Corporation had already distributed as of 12 July 2023, 67% of the common shares of ACEN Corporation (net of applicable withholding tax) which were declared as property dividends.

Additional shares will be distributed on 24 July 2023 or five business days after the receipt of the latest batch of electronic Certificates Authorizing Registration (“eCARs”) from the Bureau of Internal Revenue (“BIR”) on 17 July 2023 covering around 15.8% of the total net dividends to be distributed. The total percentage of net dividends that would have been distributed by 24 July 2023 would be around 83%.

The dividend distribution will continue as and when eCARs are released by BIR. The eCAR issuance is a prerequisite for the transfer of the properties of the Corporation, i.e. the ACEN shares, to each entitled stockholder as of the record date and it’s a process that entails the participation of both the Corporation, as transferor, and the stockholders, as transferees.
