Methods to secure the new financing

Firstly, is for the legal charge which was created under the land, No.1370, Lot No. 2469,
Mukim of Batu, Muar, Johor. In order to secure security by legal charge, the land must be
register under relevant Land Office based on Section 242 of National Land Code (NLC). In the
process of registration, Form 16A or Form 16B is given for legal charge to be more sustainable.
Before the lender or the Exports Bank take the security, the lender must search at Companies
Commission to make sure there is no any encumbrances attached to the security. The purpose is
to verify all the particular document of the title and to make sure the registered owner of the land
is FTSB.

When preparing legal charge correct and proper statutory Form are needed to conform
that the particular are accurate. All the signature should be written in blue-black or black ink in
order to obtain consent from the State Authority. To get the repayment of the loan Letter of
Undertaking, legal charge of the land and Memorandum of Transfer are needed. In the last stage
of documentation process legal charge must be presented to Land Office. The Exports Bank will
be fully secured after all the registration of the security document been obtain. However, due to
an outstanding loan with an RM 500,000 with Fair Bank and the Title Deed is encumbered to
Fair Bank. Exports Bank required to pay Fair Bank an amount of RM 500,000 in order to
discharge of charge and the title deed of the land. If the title deed is found to have encumbrances,
letter of undertaking need to be obtain by Exports Bank from FTSB to get repayment of the loan.
Furthermore, to create subsequent charge FTSB need obtain the approval or consent from the
Exports Bank. The subsequent charge may proceeds to “pari passu” basis even after the approval
from the Exports Bank. Which mean the bank who have the first legal charges will receive the
first proceeds and balance. Exports Bank has been given rights of power to sale which only can
be carried out with Court Order.

Secondly, the security is debenture. According to current law, companies are legally
qualified to create debenture only when the companies are registered under the Companies Act
1965. Company must possess a legal authority to obtain a loan and guarantees are provided for
the default from the borrower except it is prohibited under company’s Memorandum and Articles
of Association (M&A). If there was a restriction stated, bank also must concern on the
restrictions that has been fixed by the M&A. Moreover, bank should make certain that FTSB has
file at Companies Commission, an asset with a high value is essential, and ensure the director
have executed all documents and if the resolution of board of director entitle the company to
create debenture, then all document attached an endorsed. Within 30 days of the creation of
charge in statutory Form 34, the debenture must be register, in order to make sure the debenture
is valid. The assets of FTSB should also be register.

In addition, FTSB cannot deal with the building without obtaining the consent from
Exports Bank, if fixed charge is created on the industrial building. Meanwhile, if the floating
charge is created, FTSB can deal with the building without the consent from Exports Bank.
However, Exports Bank are allow to review the assets frequently, in case the asset is fall to third
parties or being disposed by FTSB. If FTSB commence a winding up or bankrupt, the floating
charge will “crystallise” upon certain even occur such as FTSB default in payment or stop their
business.

Lastly, the securities is guarantees. According to the cases, the contract of guarantee are
include such as the existing directors of FTSB which are Madam Soo Li Fern, Mr. Kenneth
Wong, Mr. Clement Tan and Encik Abang Joe. The joint and several guarantees are provided by
the existing director. Principal creditor is the Exports Bank and FTSB will be principal debtor.
All guarantors are jointly bound as one guarantee and also severally as separate guarantors and
also every guarantors need to sign one document, in order for the guarantee to be sustainable.
Plus, each of the guarantors will be equally liable for the debt after they sign the joint and several
guarantees. Exports Bank have the right to sue all the guarantor if the bank does not satisfied
with the debt. Hence, the estate of the particular guarantor will still be liable for advances made
prior to each of the events when the director is bankrupt or deceased.
