INTRODUCTION The Board of Directors of AB wishes to announce that on 6 November 2015, AB had entered into a Share Sale Agreement ( SSA ) between AB as Vendor and Liu Hung Chi ( LHC ) as Purchaser in respect of the disposal by the Vendor of 4,500,000 ordinary shares representing 75% of issued and paid up share capital of Formosa Prosonic Equipment Sdn Bhd ( FPEQ ) for a cash consideration of RM5,750,000.00 ( Disposal Consideration ). The details of the SSA is set out in the Appendix. 2. DETAILS OF THE PROPOSED DISPOSAL 2.1 Background As at the date of this Announcement, FPEQ is a 75% owned subsidiary of AB. Upon completion of the Proposed Disposal, FPEQ will cease to be a subsidiary of AB. 2.2 Background information on FPEQ FPEQ is a private limited company incorporated in Malaysia on 30.10.1995 under the Companies Act, 1965 with its registered office at Unit 30-01, Level 30, Tower A, Vertical Business Suite, Avenue 3, Bangsar South, No. 8, Jalan Kerinchi, 59200 Kuala Lumpur. As at the date of the SSA, the authorised capital of FPEQ is RM10,000,000 divided into 10,000,000 shares of which 6,000,000 shares have been issued and credited as fully paid. The existing shareholders of FPEQ are as follows: Shareholders Number of shares in FPEQ AB 4,500,000 Lui Hung Chi 1,000,000 Wang Ten Tsann 500,000 FPEQ is a 75% owned subsidiary of AB with its principal activity being the manufacturing of electrical equipment products. The directors of FPEQ are Su Cheng Tao, a Taiwanese and Liu Hung Chi, the Purchaser who is a Taiwanese and a permanent resident of Malaysia. Based on the audited financial statements of FPEQ as at 31.12.2014, FPEQ registered a revenue of RM4.31 million with a nett loss after tax of RM4.57 million and net asset at RM12.76 million. 2.3 Information on the Purchaser The Purchaser, Mr Liu Hung Chi, is a Taiwanese with permanent residence status in Malaysia and resides in No 1, Jalan SS19/4E, 47500 Subang Jaya, Selangor Darul Ehsan, Malaysia ( LHC ). 1

The Purchaser is currently a director and existing shareholder of FPEQ with a registered and beneficial interest in 1,000,000 ordinary shares of RM1.00 each representing 16.67% of issued and paid up share capital of FPEQ. The Purchaser is considered a related party given that Mr Liu is a director and major shareholder of FPEQ. Although the Proposed Disposal is regarded as a related party transaction, Paragraph 10.08(11)(n) of the Main Market Listing Requirements of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad regards the Proposed Disposal as an exempted or otherwise not regarded as related party transaction given that there are no other interested relationships except for the Purchaser being a current director and major shareholder of FPEQ. Except as stated above, the Purchaser does not have any other interest in AB. 2.4 Salient terms of the Share Sale Agreement The salient terms of the SSA are as set out in the Appendix of this Announcement. 2.5 Basis and Justification in arriving at the Disposal Consideration The Disposal Consideration for the Proposed Disposal was arrived at on a willing buyer-willing seller basis, after taking into consideration the following: (i) (iii) the 30.09.2015 Nett Asset Value ( NAV ) of the Company of RM7,876,603 based on the management accounts of the Company as at 30.09.2015 ( September 2015 NAV ); the Disposal Consideration representing a discount of 2.7% over the September 2015 NAV; the cessation of the operations of the Company. The Disposal Consideration was at a slight discount over the September 2015 NAV as there is limited market for the type and nature of the Company s business. Further, as the Company has been dormant for the past 12 months without any commercial activity, there is very little goodwill attached to the Company. As there are ongoing expenses and other minor costs to be incurred during the financial year and without any income generated, there will likely be further erosion to the Nett Asset Value once the Proposed Disposal is completed. Based on the above, in Management s opinion, the slight discount is therefore justifiable. 2.6 Dates and original costs of investment The breakdown of the dates and original cost of investment for FPEQ is set out below: Details of Investment/Subscription Date of Investment Cost of Investment (RM) Acquisition of 2,361,000 ordinary shares of RM1.00 each Subscription to 1,000,000 ordinary shares of RM1.00 each Acquisition of 1,139,000 ordinary shares of RM1.00 each 23.01.2003 4,615,668 24.01.2003 2,000,000 01.07.2004 2,278,000 Total 8,893,668 2

The total costs of investment of AB in FPEQ is RM8,893,668.00. 2.7 Estimated Gain/ (Loss) arising from the Proposed Disposal Based on the audited financial statements for FYE 31.12.2014, AB is expected to realise an estimated one-off net gain of approximately RM1.98 million in relation to the Proposed Disposal and an estimated net loss of RM0.2 million based on the management accounts of FPEQ as at 30.09.2015 as set out below: On Proforma basis based on Audited NAV as at 31 December 2014 RM Based on Management Account NAV as at 30 September 2015 RM Disposal Consideration 5,750,000 5,750,000 Nett Asset Value (75% share) (9,566,628) (5,907,452) Dividend paid on 28 July 2015 5,850,000 - (75% share) Estimated expenses (50,000) (50,000) Estimated net gain/(loss) 1,983,372 (207,452) Note: FPEQ recognised a gain on disposal of properties of RM2.33 million in June 2015. 2.8 Proposed Utilisation from the Proceeds of the Proposed Disposal The Disposal Consideration would be satisfied by the Purchaser in cash. Proceeds from the Proposed Disposal will be utilised as follows: Details of utilisation Estimated timeframe for utilisation (a) Working capital (1) Within six (6) months from the date of completion of the Proposed Disposal (b) Estimated expenses (2) Within three (3) months from the date of completion of the Proposed Disposal Total RM RM5.70 million RM0.05 million Notes: (1) This is earmarked to fund AB Group day-day operations, which will mainly be for the purchase of raw materials and payment of factory labour expenses, relocation fees and ongoing manufacturing expenses as a result of the disposal of its Sungai Petani manufacturing operations in August 2015. (2) The expenses in relation to the Proposed Disposal comprising professional fees and miscellaneous expenses. Any shortfall or excess in funds allocated for estimated expenses will be funded from or used for the working capital of AB Group. 3

2.9 Liabilities to be assumed by Purchaser There is no other liability to be assumed by the Purchaser save as disclosed in the audited financial statements of the Company as at 31.12.2014 and those in the ordinary course of business of FPEQ. 3. RATIONALE FOR THE PROPOSED DISPOSAL 3.1 Background At present, AB Group has 2 business segments, namely speaker manufacturing and property development. The major core business of the Group remains in manufacturing speaker units for the original equipment manufacturer industry vide its wholly owned subsidiary Formosa Prosonic Technic Sdn Bhd. The property development business is carried out vide its other wholly owned subsidiary Teras Eco Sdn Bhd. For the electrical equipment business, since the disposal of its manufacturing assets comprising of assembly lines, support devices, plastic blowing machines, tooling, testing and quality checking and control equipment in June 2014, the company was not able to create and manufacture alternative products due to the stiff market in the electrical equipment segment. Therefore upon the cessation of its water dispenser manufacturing operations in June 2014, FPEQ has not contributed any revenue to the Group. Since June 2014, FPEQ has attempted to explore other business opportunities directly or indirectly related with manufacturing consumer related products including diversifying into other businesses. Unfortunately, to date FPEQ has yet to commence any other business which was deemed commercially viable. Given the lack of business activity of the Company and the inability of the Company to commercially manufacture alternative electrical equipment products in the past 12 months, the Board is of the opinion that the Proposed Disposal to the existing director of the Company, who is keen to chart a different direction for the Company will represent an opportunity for the Group to realise its investments in the Company. Based on the current circumstances, the Purchaser s offer to take over AB s interest in FPEQ based on the Disposal Consideration was considered fair. 3.2 Financial and Operational Perspectives In the near and longer term, AB will not suffer any reduction in revenue or profit as FPEQ has not been able to generate any revenue or profit for the Group for the past 12 months. Given the Group is still in the process of rationalising its business by eliminating non-performing business segments, the Proposed Disposal will help to reduce the burden of managing FPEQ which is deemed a non-performing business segment, reduce operational expenses and to channel resources derived from the Disposal Consideration to other more profitable business segments within the Group. The Management believes that the Proposed Disposal will be a strategic move to streamline all its manufacturing resources to its speaker and property development business. As previously announced on 20.06.2014, the Board has indicated that in the event that FPEQ is unable to secure any viable business opportunities in the near term, the Management would then take steps to cease its business entirely. Although the Proposed Disposal will result in a slight loss of RM207,000, the Management is of the opinion that this is justified on the basis that there is limited market value for the Company due to its niche industry with very few market players, 4

the fact that the company has ceased manufacturing operations for the past 12 months rendering the possibility of the new owner being required to put in additional capital to restart operations, the alternative avenue of winding up the company which will likely incur more costs and require management resources. In light of the above, the management is of the opinion that the Proposed Disposal will be a quicker and more effective manner for the Group to recoup its investment in FPEQ. As a further consideration, by unlocking the value of FPEQ, the proceeds arising from the Proposed Disposal is expected to enhance the liquidity position of the Company, help finance its working capital requirements which in turn will help improve the Group s resource allocation. 4. RISK FACTORS The risk factor in relation to the Proposed Disposal are set out below: 4.1 Non-completion of the Proposed Disposal The completion of the Proposed Disposal is conditional upon the Condition Precedent in the SSA, namely the approval of all the shareholders of FPEQ. There can be no assurance that all the Conditions Precedent will be fulfilled or obtained in a timely manner or at all. Should a delay or non-completion of the Proposed Disposal occur, AB Group may not realise all the benefits that may accrue to it from the proposed utilisation of proceeds. Notwithstanding the above, AB shall endeavour to ensure that all the Conditions Precedent are met and that the Proposed Disposal is completed in a timely manner. 5. EFFECTS OF THE PROPOSED DISPOSAL 5.1 Issued and Paid Up Share Capital and Substantial Shareholder s Shareholdings 5.2 EPS 5.3 NA The Proposed Disposal will not have any effect on the issued and paid-up share capital and substantial shareholders shareholdings of AB as the Disposal Consideration will be satisfied wholly in cash. The losses arising from the Proposed Disposal is estimated to be RM207,000. The Proposed Disposal will have a minimal impact on immediate earnings for the immediate financial year ending 31 December 2015 but is not expected to have any material impact on the earnings of the Group in the longer term. The Proposed Disposal is not expected to have any material effect on the net assets per share of the Group for the financial year ending 31 December 2015. 5.4 Gearing The Proposed Disposal is not expected to have any material effect on the gearing of the Group for the financial year ending 31 December 2015. 5

6. APPROVALS The Proposed Disposal is not subject to the approval of the shareholders of AB nor any other relevant authorities and/or parties. 7.
