Shareholders are advised that a notice has been issued to Affected Persons regarding the business rescue
process and recent media reports ("Notice").
It remains the opinion of the BRPs that the Approved Plan remains capable of implementation and that
Shareholder support for the Equity Subscription to be voted upon at the General Meeting at 10:00 on Thursday,
8 August 2024 will be in the best interest of all THL stakeholders and will expedite the conclusion of the business
rescue process and avoid the need for consideration of the alternative transaction contemplated in the Approved
Plan, being the sale of the assets of THL.
The Lender Group has confirmed that subject to the fulfilment of all the Suspensive Conditions required to give
effect to the Equity Subscription, the Vision Parties will, upon such Equity Subscription, be vested with such rights
in and to that quantum of the Lender Group Claims which is required for the Equity Subscription to occur. Despite
enquiry, the BRPs were not provided with any further information as to the status of the acquisition of the Lender
Group Claims by the Vision Parties, by reason of its confidential nature.
Shareholders and Affected Persons are also reminded that a copy of the abovementioned Notice and all other
notices and documents regarding the business rescue proceedings of the Company that have been and/or will
be circulated to all known Affected Persons are available on the THL website under the 'Business Rescue' tab at
