RATIONALE FOR THE PROPOSED JOINT VENTURE Encorp, via EBKSB has accepted the developmental rights to develop the Master Land from FELDA and it is the intention of Encorp to develop the said land into an integrated township comprising both commercial and residential development. Given the strategic location of the land at the heart of Melaka, Encorp believes that the Master Land has a strong growth potential. Pursuant to the above, Encorp is undertaking the Proposed Joint Venture to embark on the development of the Master Land of which the Proposed Joint Venture would serve as a forum for collaboration between the Parties to form a strategic alliance for the Development. The Proposed Joint Venture would enable EBKSB to commence the development of the Land without incurring massive capital outlay and allow both parties to tap into each other strength and expertise. In addition, the Proposed Joint Venture would also unlock partially the value of the Master Land subsequent to the completion of acceptance of the rights to develop the Master Land in 2016. Based on the foregoing, the Encorp Group is expected to benefit from the Proposed Joint Venture which is expected to contribute positively towards the future financial performance of the Encorp Group. 5. PROSPECTS OF THE PROPOSED JOINT VENTURE 5.1 Overview and prospects of the Malaysian economy The Malaysian economy grew by 4.5% in the fourth quarter of 2016 (3Q 2016: 4.3%), underpinned by continued expansion in private sector expenditure. On the supply side, growth continues to be driven by the manufacturing and services sectors. On a quarteron-quarter seasonally-adjusted basis, the economy recorded a sustained growth of 1.4% (3Q 2016: 1.4%). Overall, domestic demand expanded at a more moderate pace, as the sustained growth in private sector expenditure was partly offset by the decline in public expenditure. In the fourth quarter, private consumption grew by 6.2% (3Q 2016: 6.4%), supported by continued wage and employment growth. Private investment registered a growth of 4.9% (3Q 2016: 4.7%), following continued capital spending in the services and manufacturing sectors. Growth of public investment improved mainly on account of higher spending on fixed assets by public corporations, but nevertheless, remained in contraction during the quarter. Public consumption also declined by 4.2% (3Q 2016: +2.2%) arising from the rationalisation of spending on supplies and services and a moderation in the growth of spending on emoluments. On the external front, net exports contributed positively to growth as real exports expanded at a faster rate than real imports. 18

On the supply side, growth in the manufacturing, mining and agriculture sectors improved. The manufacturing sector expanded at a faster pace owing to higher growth in both domestic and export-oriented industries. The mining sector recorded an improvement due to the increase of natural gas production during the quarter. In the agriculture sector, economic activity contracted at a slower pace, reflecting the diminishing impact of El Niño on crude palm oil yields. Growth in the services sector continued to expand, albeit at a more moderate pace, supported mainly by consumptionrelated services. In the construction sector, growth remained driven by the civil engineering subsector. Inflation, as measured by the annual change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI), increased to 1.7% in the fourth quarter of 2016 (3Q 2016: 1.3%), driven mainly by upward adjustments to domestic fuel prices during the quarter. Inflation in the transport category registered a smaller negative inflation of 2.6% during the quarter (3Q 2016: - 7.4%). The inflationary impact was, however, mitigated by the lower inflation in the alcoholic beverages and tobacco category (6.6%; 3Q 2016: 19.7%) due to the lapse in the impact of the upward revision in cigarette prices in the base period of 4Q 2015. For the year as a whole, inflation averaged 2.1% (2015: 2.1%). In 4Q 2016, the current account surplus widened, due mainly to a higher trade surplus and narrower deficits in the income accounts. As at 31 January 2017, the reserves position amounted to USD95.0 billion (equivalent to RM426.0 billion). The international reserves remain ample to facilitate international transactions. They are sufficient to finance 8.6 months of retained imports, significantly higher than the 3-month international threshold. The reserves level is also adequate to meet external obligations given the reserves to short-term external debt coverage of 1.1 times. It is important to note that not all short-term external debt creates a claim on reserves given the availability of external assets and export earnings of borrowers.

Residential sub-sector was down by 9.6%. commercial 19.7%, industrial 27.3% and development land 5.6% whereas agriculture increased by a mere 3.2%. Value of transactions also showed similar movement pattern.

Melaka 2017 Outlook Housing sector will continue to top the state s main agenda. The development of Rumah Mesra Rakyat Melaka ( RMRM ) and PR1MA would help address housing affordability issues in the state. In the coming year, 1,177 units of RMRM are expected to complete while another 2,289 units are under construction. The Melaka Guangdong collaboration on Melaka Gateway is anticipated to entail inward investments as well as more tourists arrivals into the state, which would then boost the local economy. On the commercial front, the Hang Tuah Melaka Commercial Centre, located on a 284- hectare site along Jalan Hang Tuah, is the main component of 2050 Melaka Transformation Plan. The long-term integrated development would help spur the commercial property segment in the future. High Speed Rail (HSR) project which would pass through the state is another forwardlooking mega infrastructure project for the betterment of the state s economy and property market. (Source: Property Market Report 2016 by the National Property Information Centre, Valuation & Property Services Department, Ministry of Finance Malaysia) Malaysia 2016 Property Market Activity The uncertainty enfolding the global political scene coupled with the low domestic economic growth have also taken its toll on the property market. The year recorded 320,425 transactions worth RM145.41 billion, indicating a decline of 11.5% in volume and 3.0% in value against 2015 (2015: 362,105 transactions worth RM149.90 billion). Residential sub-sector dominated the overall market, with 63.4% contribution in volume and 45.1% in value. This was followed by agriculture (21.6%), commercial (7.4%), development land (5.9%) and industrial (1.8%). There were 203,064 transactions (2015: 235,967) worth RM65.57 billion (2015: RM73.47 billion) recorded for residential properties in the review period, which declined by a higher rate of 13.9% in volume and 10.7% in value as compared with 2015. For commercial properties, there were 23,745 transactions where RM35.99 billion was recorded, down by 25.3% in volume but value increased by 36.1% as several prominent sales were recorded in the year involving office buildings, shopping complexed and hotels. The industrial sub-sector recorded 5,609 transactions (2015: 7,046), down by 20.4% in volume but increased by a mere of 0.4% in value.

Malaysia 2017 Outlook The 2016 conundrums are expected to be reverberate onto 2017. It would be expected that the property market would take a breather in the next couple of years before it could make a comeback. Nevertheless, the 4.2% GDP growth indicated the economy was still growing despite the challenging global and domestic environment and should post a silver lining to the property market. Apart from that, the decision by Bank Negara Malaysia to maintain the Overnight Policy Rate (OPR) at 3% would ensure that monetary policy is accommodative and supportive of economic at large and property industry. The allocation of RM2.1 billion for infrastructure and socioeconomic development in the five (5) economic corridors, namely Iskandar Malaysia, Northern Corridor Economic Region (NCER), East Coast Economic Region (ECER), Sabah Development Corridor (SDC) and Sarawak Corridor of Renewable Energy (SCORE) would help support the property market activity. The operation of MRT Sungai Buloh Kajang MRT line (Phase 1) in December 2016 and July 2017 (Phase 2) would enhance accessibility and improve marketability of areas along the line routes. The signing of MoU between Malaysia and Singapore for the High-Speed Rail (HSR) project marked a historical milestone for the country. The HSR which is expected to pass through six transit locations namely Putrajaya, Seremban, Ayer Keroh, Muar, Batu Pahat and Iskandar Puteri, will cut the travel time between Kuala Lumpur and Singapore to 90 minutes. Another major game-changer is the East Coast Rail Link (ECRL), which runs from Port Klang across Pahang, Kelantan and Terengganu, is expected to improve connectivity from 12-hour journey by road to a four-hour one by rail. Both rail projects would change the economic landscape of the adjacent vicinity and entail better prospects for the property market. (Source: Property Market Report 2016 by the National Property Information Centre, Valuation & Property Services Department, Ministry of Finance Malaysia) 5.3 Overview and outlook of the Development of the Land Pursuant to the Proposed Joint Venture, the Parties intend to develop the Land into a mixed development project comprising residential housing and commercial buildings which shall include medical college and hospital. Over the years, the area surrounding the Land has been developed with notable residential neighborhoods which amongst others include Vista Kirana, Taman Ozana Impian, Melaka Perdana Resort Homes, Taman Bukit Katil Damai, Ozana Villas, Country Villas Resort, Taman Saujana Indah and Taman Saujana Permai. Given the ideal location of the Land for similar development and accessibility via Jalan Tun Hamzah, one of the main arterial roads linking Bukit Katil area with Ayer Keroh development neighbourhoods, the Board expects that the prospect for the development on the Site to be favourable. 21

Based on the foregoing, the Board is of the view that the Proposed Joint Venture will contribute positively towards the performance of the Encorp Group as it will unlock the value of the Land and that the Encorp Group shall benefit from the development to be undertaken over the period of the Project. 6.
