The relevant State regulatory approvals having already been obtained, has shortened the construction and commissioning period to approximately 9-12 months. the existing financial close for project financing from Malayan Banking Berhad and CHRE securing a facilitation fund (grant) from Unit Peneraju Agenda Bumiputera (TERAJU). (Please refer to part 3.6 for further details on project financing). 3.4 Source of funding The cash consideration of RM2,500,000 for the acquisition will be funded by internally generated funds. 3.5 Liabilities to be assumed GHSB will not assume any liabilities of CHRE pursuant to the Proposed Acquisition. Any existing liabilities of CHRE shall remain in its books and will be settled by CHRE in its normal course of business. As at the last audited accounts on 30 June 2015, CHRE does not have any material current or long term liabilities. 3.6 Additional financial commitment & corporate guarantee Based on the engineering design, detailed costing, and declared energy yield of the Sungai Geruntum small hydro plant, the total estimated project cost is RM20.48 million. Prior to the announcement date, CHRE has financed RM2.70 million of the total project cost via issuance of ordinary shares to existing shareholders. In addition, CHRE has secured a facilitation fund (grant) from Unit Peneraju Agenda Bumiputera ( TERAJU ) for up RM2.55 million, which is based upon the actual project cost. This is payable by TERAJU to CHRE in two stages, namely, upon completion of 50% of total project works, and completion of 100% of total project works. 4

Furthermore, CHRE has secured financial close for a project financing facility from Malayan Banking Berhad for up to RM12.46 million, which is currently un-utilised. As such, the balance of the estimated project cost amounting to RM2.77 million will be contributed by the shareholders of CHRE based their respective equity stakes, via shareholder advances.

The development and construction phase will be between 9-12 months from the date the SSA is deemed unconditional. This additional financial commitment by GHSB will be funded by internally generated funds. Malayan Banking Berhad, in addition to existing security arrangements with CHRE, may require GUNUNG to provide a corporate guarantee of up to RM12.46 million to jointly guarantee the existing project financing facility. Currently, the existing directors of CHRE have provided a RM12.46 million joint and several guarantee to Malayan Banking Berhad. GUNUNG will make the appropriate timely announcements to Bursa Securities in the event that a corporate guarantee is required and issued to Malayan Banking Berhad for the CHRE project financing facility. 4. RATIONALE FOR THE PROPOSED ACQUISITION In view of the Government s push for the development of renewable energy as the fifth national fuel with the implementation of the FiT system, the Proposed Acquisition will allow GUNUNG to consolidate its position in the renewable energy sector. The FiT system supports the developers of renewable energy by fixing a premium tariff for electricity generated from non fossil fuel sources, such as small-hydro schemes, biomass, and solar. Furthermore, the introduction of the Renewable Energy Act 2011 provides a mandatory requirement for TNB to buy Renewable Energy power. In the case of small-hydro plants having an installed capacity of up to and including 2MW, the FiT rate payable by TNB is 26 sen per kilowatt hour for a mandatory period of twenty one (21) years. The Proposed Acquisition will allow GUNUNG s 90%-owned subsidiary, GHSB, to increase its estimated installed capacity from 20MW to 22MW. Currently GHSB is developing two (2) small hydro sites with a total estimated installed capacity of 20MW (as per the announcement to Bursa Securities on 17 September 2014). Both sites have secured FiT approval from SEDA and signed RePPA s with TNB, for a period of 21 years at a revised FiT rate of 25 sen per kwh (revised by SEDA in December 2015 from 24 sen per kwh). Currently, these sites are at the stage of completing the detailed engineering, costing, and land acquisition. Prior to this announcement CHRE has secured FiT approval from SEDA, signed a RePPA agreement with TNB, fulfilled the conditions in the Development Order Certificate ( DOC ) issued to CHRE by Jabatan Perancangan Bandar dan Desa ( JPBD ) on 21 January 2015, and obtained all other relevant approvals from State Authorities. In view of CHRE s advanced stage of development of its small hydro site, GUNUNG expects the commencement of earnings contributions from CHRE in financial year 31 December 2017. 5

The Proposed Acquisition is expected to contribute positively to GUNUNG s long term revenue and profits, and enhance GUNUNG s growth potential. In addition, the long term stable income stream derived from the CHRE small hydro projects will reduce GUNUNG s dependency on income derived solely from the chartering of land-based transportation assets and specialty vehicles. 5. RISK FACTORS (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) Market risk, competition risk and pricing fluctuation risks for the small hydro projects has been substantially mitigated by the FiT system that fixes a premium tariff for electricity generated from non fossil fuel sources, such as small-hydro schemes, and under the Renewable Energy Act 2011 which mandatory requires TNB to accept and buy Renewable Energy power. Inherent to the renewable energy power generation sector in Malaysia, are both political and short term foreign exchange risks. Changes in existing Government policies regarding renewable energy can greatly affect the commercial viability of renewable energy. The mechanical and electrical equipment for power generation are generally procured from overseas manufacturers, which poses a short term foreign exchange risk for CHRE. Business risks exist, which are mainly associated with the performance of the appointed contractors for civil works, the appointed suppliers and installers of the mechanical & electrical components of the small-hydro plant, and the appointed engineers and consultants. This is due to potential delays in the commissioning of the plant, and not meeting the agreed upon energy commitment with TNB. The efficiency of the plant design, will also affect the ability of CHRE to meet its annual energy commitment to TNB. The Board intends to mitigate these risks, by procuring performance guarantees from the main contractors and suppliers. Other business risks are associated with GHSB or the Vendor in not fulfilling their obligations under the SSA, and the risk of non-fulfilment of all the necessary conditions precedent set out in the SSA. GHSB will take all reasonable steps to ensure the satisfaction and/or waiver (as the case may be) of the conditions precedent to ensure the completion of the Proposed Acquisition. Financing risk must also be considered, in the form of project financing, contingent liabilities, and gearing levels of CHRE and the GUNUNG Group. Any breach of a debt financing instrument s covenants, and failure to meet the timely interest and principal payments may result in default. Nevertheless, the Board will exercise due care in considering the project financing model and the merits of the financing required. 6. PROSPECTS 6.1 Overview and Outlook of Economy The economy registered a growth of 4.7% in the third quarter of 2015 (2Q2015:4.9%). Private sector expenditure continued to be the key driver of growth (4.4%; 2Q2015:5.7%), and contributed towards the expansion in domestic demand. In addition, growth was supported by the improvement in public sector spending (2.8%; 2Q2015:0.9%) and the turnaround in net exports, which recorded a positive growth during the quarter (3.3%; 2Q2015:- 10.5%). On a quarter-on-quarter seasonally-adjusted basis, the economy grew by 0.7% (2Q2015:1.1%). 6

Domestic demand expanded by 4.0% in the third quarter of 2015 (2Q2015:4.6%). This was driven mainly by private sector activity, which grew by 4.4% (2Q2015:5.7%) following continued growth in investment and consumption activities. Private investment expanded by 5.5% (2Q2015:3.9%), supported by continued capital spending in the manufacturing and services sectors. Private consumption growth moderated to 4.1% (2Q2015:6.4%), as households continued to adjust to the implementation of the Goods and Services Tax. However, wage growth and stable labour market conditions remained supportive of overall consumer spending. On the supply side, all economic sectors continued to expand during the third quarter of 2015. Growth was led by the construction and manufacturing sectors. Construction sector growth improved due mainly to a faster expansion in the civil engineering and specialised construction activities sub-sectors. Similarly, the manufacturing sector registered higher growth, supported in particular by an improvement in the export-oriented industries. The services sector registered lower growth due to a moderation in household spending and slower capital market activity. The mining and agriculture sectors expanded at a slower pace due to a moderation in crude oil and palm oil production, respectively. The economy is expected to expand within the region of 4.5-5.5% in 2015 and 4.0-5.0% in 2016, notwithstanding that downside risks to global growth remain arising from the moderating growth momentum in a number of major economies, uncertainty surrounding energy and commodity prices and possible disorderly market conditions arising from policy shifts in major economies. As a result of structural adjustments that have been steadily undertaken over the years, the economy is now supported by diversified sources of growth. With the external sector performance expected to be modest, domestic demand will continue to be the main driver of growth, supported mainly by the private sector activity. In addition, the flexible exchange rate, deep and more mature financial markets and solid financial institutions will support this trend and ensure that shocks such as volatile capital flows are well intermediated, therefore minimizing spillovers to the real economy.

This has dramatically improved the commercial viability of the renewable energy industry in Malaysia. With greater worldwide awareness on carbon mitigation measures to combat green house gases (GHG) emissions, there are now more concerted efforts to promote and encourage the use of renewable sources for power generation. The Government of Malaysia has approved The National Renewable Energy Policy and Action Plan on 2nd April 2010. One of the main elements of this policy was the introduction of the Renewable Energy Act which entails the implementation of the FiT system. The FiT is a premium in which the Renewable Energy ( RE ) power is sold according to each RE source. The introduction of the RE Act also provides a mandatory requirement for the utility to accept and buy RE power. Both the RE Act and the FiT system was enforced on 1st December 2011. On 1st September 2011, the SEDA was officially established to undertake the role of a one stop centre to promote sustainable energy and to help facilitate the RE industry. (Source: YB Dato Sri Peter Chin Fah Kui, The Future of Energy in Malaysia, April 2012) The FiT system under the RE Act supports the developers of renewable energy by fixing a premium tariff for electricity generated from non fossil fuel sources, such as small-hydro schemes. 7

The introduction of the RE Act provides a mandatory requirement for the utility provider (TNB) to buy RE power. In the case of small-hydro plants having an installed capacity of up to and including 2MW, the FiT rate payable by the utility has be revised upwards by SEDA in December 2015 to 26 sen per kwh from the previous 24 sen per kwh, for a mandatory period of twenty one (21) years. In conclusion, given the Governments support in providing an economically viable platform for investments in the renewable energy sector, the overall prospects for the CHRE is positive. The prospects for CHRE has been further enhanced by an upward FiT rate revision by SEDA in December 2015 to 26 sen per kwh. 7. FINANCIAL EFFECTS 7.1 Share capital & substantial shareholders The Proposed Acquisition will not have any effect on the share capital and substantial shareholders of GUNUNG, as the Proposed Acquisition will be satisfied entirely by cash and does not involve any issuance of new ordinary shares in GUNUNG. 7.2 Earnings The Proposed Acquisition is not expected to have an immediate material effect on the earnings of GUNUNG and its subsidiaries ( GUNUNG Group ) for the financial year ending 31 December 2016. The Sungai Geruntum small hydro plant developed by CHRE is expected to be complete and commissioned at the end of financial year ending 31 December 2016. The Proposed Acquisition is expected to contribute positively to the earnings of the GUNUNG Group for the financial year ending 31 December 2017 and thereafter for 20 years based on the RePPA signed with TNB. 8. HIGHEST PERCENTAGE RATIO APPLICABLE Pursuant to Rule 10.02(g) of the Main Market Listing Requirements of Bursa Securities ( Listing Requirements ), the highest percentage ratio for the Proposed Acquisition is the total consideration of the Proposed Acquisition of RM2.5 million compared with the market capitalization of GUNUNG (five (5) day weighted average market price) of RM96.8 million, is approximately 2.58%, based on the audited financial statements of GUNUNG for the FYE 31 December 2014. 9. APPROVALS REQUIRED AND CONDITIONALITY OF THE PROPOSED ACQUISITION The Proposed Acquisition is subject to approval(s) from relevant bodies, persons, authorities or regulatory bodies, as may be necessary and identified in the SSA. For information purposes, the Proposed Acquisition is not subject to the approval of the shareholders of GUNUNG. The Proposed Acquisition is not conditional upon any other proposals. 10. DIRECTORS AND MAJOR SHAREHOLDERS INTERESTS None of the Directors and major shareholders of the Company or persons connected with them have any interest, direct and/or indirect, in the Proposed Acquisition. 8

11. DIRECTORS STATEMENT After having considered all aspects including the terms and conditions of the SSA, the rationale and the financial effects of the Proposed Acquisition, the Board is of the opinion that the Proposed Acquisition is in the best interest of the Company. 12. ESTIMATED TIME FRAME FOR COMPLETION Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the Proposed Acquisition is expected to be completed by the first (1 st ) quarter of the calendar year 2016. 13.
