The net proceeds from the Proposed Transaction are intended to be used to repay external borrowings and as general working capital of the Group. This would further strengthen the Group’s balance sheet and enhance the Group’s financial flexibility.

(3)	Computed based on the aggregate gross consideration for the MFLEX Sale Shares, compared to the market capitalisation of the Company on 4 February 2016 (market day preceding this Announcement) of approximately S$1,135.1 million.
