Application for listing

It is not intended that application will be made for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the

Convertible Bonds on the Stock Exchange or any other stock exchanges.

If the Open Offer proceeds, application will be made to the Listing Committee of the Stock

Exchange for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Conversion Shares to be allotted

and issued upon exercise of the Conversion Right.

Other details of the Open Offer

The consummation of the Open Offer is conditional upon the Underwriting Agreement having

become unconditional, and the Underwriting Agreement will not become unconditional

if, among other things, the Creditors’ Scheme has not received the necessary approvals

or consents. It is therefore uncertain as to whether and when the Open Offer will proceed

and, hence, the Company is not in a position to give an indication as to the timetable for

implementation of the Open Offer (including the Record Date). In addition, given that the

terms of the Revised Debt Restructuring Proposal are still being discussed with creditors

and other relevant parties and therefore subject to change, it is uncertain at this stage as to

whether new Shares or other securities will be issued by the Company pursuant to the final

debt restructuring proposal and, hence, the Company is not in a position to give an indication

as to the shareholding structure of the Company upon completion of the Open Offer or the

Shareholders who will qualify for participation in the Open Offer.

Summary of the proposed principal terms of the Convertible Bonds

A summary of the proposed principal terms of the Convertible Bonds is set out below.

Principal amount Not less than approximately HK$391.0 million but not more than

approximately HK$394.1 million.

other minimum percentage of the total issued share capital of a

listed company as prescribed under the Listing Rules that must

remain in the public hands.

approval by a special resolution of the Bondholders passed in a

meeting of the Bondholders or in writing by the requisite majority

Bonds has, on the giving of such notice, become immediately due

and payable, whereupon the outstanding principal amount of the

in an amount which is 100% of the principal amount of the

outstanding Convertible Bonds.

Termination of the Underwriting Agreement

The Underwriter may terminate the Underwriting Agreement by notice in writing issued to the

Company at any time prior to 4:00 p.m. on the Settlement Date if any of the following events

occurs:

(a) the appointment of one or more liquidators (provisional or otherwise), administrator or

any analogous officer for the winding up of the Company in any jurisdiction whatsoever;

(b) the making of an order to wind up of the Company;

(c) there is any breach of any of the warranties made by the Company in any material

respect which has come to knowledge of the Underwriter or any event which has

occurred or any matter which has arisen on or after the date of the Underwriting

Agreement which if it had occurred or arisen before the date of the Underwriting

Agreement would have rendered any of such warranties untrue, inaccurate or misleading

in any material respect; or

(d) there is material adverse change in the financial position, business, property or

operations of any member of the Group compared to that as at date of the Underwriting

Agreement.

Upon the appointment of joint provisional liquidators of the Company by the order of

the Supreme Court of Bermuda on 18 October 2013 (Bermuda time), the Underwriter

becomes entitled to terminate the Underwriting Agreement by notice in writing issued

to the Company. As at the date of this announcement, the Company has not received

such notice from the Underwriter. If the Underwriter exercises its right to terminate the

Underwriting Agreement pursuant to its terms, the Open Offer will not proceed.

REASONS FOR THE OPEN OFFER

The Group is principally engaged in the supply of oil products and provision of bunker

refueling services and provision of logistic services (including oil and chemical storage and

oil transportation).

Page 18: Titan Petrochemicals Group Limited · 2016. 2. 10. · Titan Petrochemicals Group Limited (Provisional Liquidators appointed#) (Stock Code: 1192) (Incorporated in Bermuda with limited

18

The Company originally intended to use the proceeds from the Open Offer to fund its debt

restructuring and the Group’s operations. Given the financial situation of the Group and

having considered other fund raising alternatives for the Group, such as placing of new Shares

or other Convertible Bonds, and the benefits and cost of each of the alternatives, the Board

considered that the Open Offer was in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as

a whole as it would offer all the Qualifying Shareholders an equal opportunity to participate

in the enlargement of the capital base of the Company at the same price and would enable the

Qualifying Shareholders to continue to participate in the future development of the Company

should they wish to do so.

CB SUBSCRIPTIONS

The CB Subscription Agreements

shall immediately cease and neither party shall have any claims against the other party in

respect of any matter arising out of or in connection with the relevant CB Subscription

become entitled to terminate the CB Subscription Agreements by notice in writing issued

Summary of principal terms of the Investors Convertible Bonds to be issued under the

CB Subscription Agreements

Save for the principal amount of the Investors Convertible Bonds, other terms and conditions

of the Investors Convertible Bonds to be issued under the CB Subscriptions are to be the same

as the Convertible Bonds to be issued under the Open Offer. Details of the proposed terms

of the Convertible Bonds are set out in the section headed “Proposal for the Open Offer –

Summary of the proposed principal terms of the Convertible Bonds” above.

The Investors Conversion Shares issuable upon the exercise of the conversion right under

the Investors Convertible Bonds pursuant to the CB Subscriptions are expected to be issued

and allotted pursuant to a specific mandate to be sought at a special general meeting of the

Company.

Information on the CB Subscribers

CGL Resources is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of FEG. FEG is a company listed on

Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited and a leading player in the regional offshore

marine and oil and gas sectors. The Company has been notified by GZE that a 50:50 joint

venture has been established between GZE and FEG to engage in the owning and operation

of mobile offshore drilling units. To the best of the knowledge, information and belief of

the Directors having made all reasonable enquiries, CGL Resources and FEG are, save as

disclosed in this announcement, (i) Independent Third Parties; and (ii) independent of and not

a party acting in concert (as defined in the Takeovers Code) with Fame Dragon.

New Berkeley is owned by Tan Pong Tyea and Cai Wenxing in equal proportions. Tan Pong

Tyea and Cai Wenxing are directors and shareholders of FEG. To the best of the knowledge,

information and belief of the Directors having made all reasonable enquiries, New Berkeley

and their respective ultimate beneficial owners are, save as disclosed in this announcement, (i)

Independent Third Parties; and (ii) independent of and not a party acting in concert (as defined

in the Takeovers Code) with Fame Dragon.

Page 22: Titan Petrochemicals Group Limited · 2016. 2. 10. · Titan Petrochemicals Group Limited (Provisional Liquidators appointed#) (Stock Code: 1192) (Incorporated in Bermuda with limited

22

Wahen Investments is an investment holding company directly wholly-owned by Mr.

Zhao who is the Chairman and an executive director of the Company as at the date of this

announcement. Accordingly, Wahen Investments is a connected person of the Company. Prior

to entering into of the Wahen Subscription Agreement, Wahen Investments and Mr. Zhao have

not had any shareholding interests in the Company. Each of Wahen Investments and Mr. Zhao

is independent of and not a party acting in concert (as defined in the Takeovers Code) with

Fame Dragon.

Effect of the CB Subscriptions on the shareholding structure of the Company

The completion of the CB Subscriptions is conditional upon, among other things, the

Creditors’ Scheme having received the necessary approvals and consents. It is therefore

uncertain as to whether and when the CB Subscriptions will proceed. In addition, given that

the terms of the Revised Debt Restructuring Proposal are still being discussed with creditors

and other relevant parties and therefore subject to change, it is uncertain at this stage as to

whether new Shares or other securities will be issued by the Company pursuant to the final

debt restructuring proposal and, hence, the Company is not in a position to give an indication

as to the shareholding structure of the Company upon completion of the CB Subscriptions.

REASONS FOR THE CB SUBSCRIPTIONS

The CB Subscriptions, if they proceed, will provide funding for the Company’s debt

restructuring and the Group’s operations. In addition, leveraging on the leading position of

FEG in the offshore marine industry, the Company will further explore the possibilities of

long term strategic partnerships with FEG and/or New Berkeley in the related areas. The

Wahen Subscription Agreement demonstrates management support for the Company.

Having considered the above, the Board considered that it was in the interests of the Company

and its Shareholders as a whole to enter into the CB Subscription Agreements.

PREVIOUS FUND RAISING EXERCISE OF THE COMPANY

The Company did not raise any other funds by issue of equity securities during the 12 months

immediately preceding the date of this announcement.

LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

The Underwriter, by virtue of its holding of voting rights to a total of 3,556,353,661

Shares (representing approximately 45.5% of the total Shares in issue as at the date of this

announcement), is the controlling shareholder of the Company and, hence, a connected person

of the Company. Accordingly, the underwriting of the Open Offer by the Underwriter pursuant

to the Underwriting Agreement constitutes a connected transaction of the Company but is,

pursuant to Rule 14A.31(3)(c) of the Listing Rules, exempt from the reporting, announcement

and independent shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

Wahen Investments, being wholly-owned by Mr. Zhao, the Chairman and an executive director

of the Company, is a connected person of the Company and, thus, the Wahen Subscription

contemplated under the Wahen Subscription Agreement constitutes a connected transaction of

the Company.

CONTINUED SUSPENSION IN TRADING

Trading in the Shares was suspended with effect from 9:00 a.m. on 19 June 2012 and will

remain suspended until further notice.
