Subject of the Disclosure
Update on Property Dividend Declaration of PNB
Description of the Disclosure
We write in response to the request of the Exchange for an update on the payment date of the Bank’s property dividends declaration of up to 239,353,710 common shares of PNB Holdings Corporation (“PHC”) with a par value of Php100.00 per share with entitlement ratio of 0.156886919 shares of PHC for every 1 share of PNB.
Information Requested
As an update, PNB has partially secured the electronic Certificate Authorizing Registration (eCAR) of PNB shareholders with Tax identification Numbers (TIN) on record. The Bank is continuously working with the regulator to secure the remaining eCARs for shareholders who have yet to provide their TIN so that eventually, the Bank can effectively distribute the property dividend shares. We wish to advise that the payment date for the property dividends to be distributed will be announced after securing the remaining necessary approvals and completing other administrative processes. We trust you will take note accordingly. Thank you.
