13. DISPUTED CLAIMS

16. TRUST IN RELATION TO THE SCHEME CONSIDERATION

 

16.1 The Company will not issue any Scheme Consideration to a Scheme Creditor if that Scheme Creditor:

 

  (a) is a Disqualified Person or a Prohibited Transferee; or

 

  (b) has not provided to the Information Agent a validly completed Account Holder Letter including a validly completed Distribution Confirmation Deed from or on behalf of the Scheme Creditor by the relevant deadline.

 

16.2 If Clause 16.1 applies, a Scheme Creditor’s entitlement to the Scheme Consideration will be issued to the Holding Period Trustee, who will hold the Scheme Consideration on trust (the “Scheme Consideration Trust”) for the relevant Scheme Creditor (the “Trust Securities”) for the Holding Period.

 

40


16.3 If a Scheme Creditor whose entitlement to the Scheme Consideration has been issued to the Holding Period Trustee under Clause 16.2, and that Scheme Creditor:

  (b) fails to provide the Information Agent or the Company (as applicable) with a validly completed Account Holder Letter including the Distribution Confirmation Deed;

within the Holding Period, together with a request in writing to transfer the relevant Trust Securities to it (or its Designated Recipient) within the Holding Period then, upon the expiration of the Holding Period, the Holding Period Trustee is hereby authorised to sell such Scheme Consideration to a third party on arm’s length terms.

 

16.4 If during the Holding Period any Scheme Creditor being a beneficiary of the Scheme Consideration Trust requests in writing that the Holding Period Trustee sell the Trust Securities to which it is beneficially entitled, the Holding Period Trustee will use its reasonable endeavours to sell the Trust Securities and account to that Scheme Creditor for the net proceeds of sale (after the deduction of the reasonable costs and expenses of the Holding Period Trustee in respect of such sale), provided that a validly completed Account Holder Letter along with a validly completed Trust Distribution Deed has been submitted to the Information Agent or to the Company by or on behalf of that Scheme Creditor.

 

16.5 If it is not possible to pay net cash proceeds of a sale of Scheme Consideration (after the deduction of the reasonable costs and expenses of the Holding Period Trustee in respect of such sale) pursuant to Clause 16.3 or 16.4 to the relevant Scheme Creditor by the Distribution Longstop Date, then the Holding Period Trustee shall apply the net cash proceeds of sale in such manner as the Holding Period Trustee shall determine in its absolute discretion (including paying the monies into Court or gifting the same to such children’s charity as the Holding Period Trustee thinks fit). The Holding Period Trustee shall have the power to appoint an additional or replacement trustee over the Trust Securities at any time, subject to any additional or replacement trustee agreeing to be bound by the terms of the Schemes.

 

16.6 For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Clause 16 shall allow any Scheme Consideration to be sold in circumstances where a Scheme Creditor would be prohibited from selling such Scheme Consideration were it the legal owner thereof.

 

41


16.7 The performance by the Company of its obligations to settle on trust any Scheme Consideration under this Cayman Scheme shall operate to discharge any corresponding obligation of the Company under the Hong Kong Scheme to settle any such sum on trust.
