Description of other type of transaction Please refer to column on "Circumstances by reason of which change has occurred"
Circumstances by reason of which change has occurred Change in particulars of STC's deemed interest in the 4,875,000,000 Maxis Shares following the disposal of the 4,875,000,000 Maxis Shares by MCB (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Binariang GSM Sdn Bhd (“BGSM”)) to BGSM Equity Holdings Sdn Bhd (“BGSM Equity”) (an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of BGSM) pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement dated 20 December 2013 entered into between MCB and BGSM Equity (“SPA”). The SPA is entered into pursuant to an internal corporate restructuring undertaken by BGSM Group, as part of an overall debt refinancing exercise.

This internal corporate restructuring involves an intra-group transfer to BGSM Equity (an indirect 100% subsidiary of BGSM), of the entire 4,875,000,000 Maxis Shares owned by MCB, another wholly-owned subsidiary of BGSM. Consequently, there is no change in the effective shareholding of BGSM and MCB respectively, after this internal corporate restructuring.

On completion of the SPA, the 4,875,000,000 Maxis Shares will be registered in the name of BGSM Equity.

BGSM’s deemed interest arises by virtue of BGSM holding 100% equity interest in MCB, which in turn holds 100% equity interest in BGSM Management Sdn Bhd (“BGSM Management”). BGSM Management holds 100% equity interest in BGSM Equity, which will be the registered holder of 4,875,000,000 Maxis Shares representing approximately 64.97% of the total issued and paid-up share capital of Maxis.

STC’s deemed interest arises by virtue of STC holding 100% equity interest in STC Asia Telecom Holding Ltd (“STCAT”). STCAT in turn holds 100% equity interest in STC Malaysia Holding Ltd, which in turn holds a 25% equity interest in BGSM.
