Clarification of News Report

We reply to your request for clarification on the news article entitled “Legal battle heats up as freeze order hits Andrew Tan’s Megaworld and 10 banks in Datem dispute over nearly P1B dues” posted in Bilyonaryo.com on November 16, 2023.

Further to our earlier clarification, Megaworld Corporation (“Megaworld”) would like to advise the Exchange that it only learned on 16 November 2023 from the Bilyonaryo.com article that notices of garnishment were supposedly served on several banks of Megaworld pursuant to a Writ of Preliminary Attachment (“WPA”). However, Megaworld has not received any formal notice on the service thereof.

Nonetheless, as earlier emphasized, Megaworld is prepared to immediately avail of remedies to lift the WPA and any such notices of garnishment, including by immediately posting a counter-bond, without prejudice to availing other remedies to challenge the propriety of the said WPA.

Megaworld reiterates that the WPA and the notices of garnishment do not entail the cessation of any of Megaworld’s business operations, including with respect to the projects identified in the article.

We trust that we have clarified the above-mentioned news article to your satisfaction.
