Based on the existing issued ordinary shares of the Bank as at the Latest Practicable Date, the purchase by the Bank of 5% of its issued

equivalent to 5% above the Average Closing Price of the ordinary shares traded on the SGX-ST for the five consecutive market days
immediately preceding the Latest Practicable Date); and
(b) (in the case of off-market purchases of ordinary shares) S$3,029.94 million based on S$14.48 for one ordinary share (being the price
