The holder of New Hevea Warrants is not entitled to any voting right or participation in any forms of distribution and/or offer of further securities in HeveaBoard until and unless such holders of New Hevea Warrants exercise their New Hevea Warrants for new Hevea Shares. The new Hevea Shares to be issued arising from the exercise of the New Hevea Warrants shall, upon allotment and issue, rank pari passu in all respects with the existing Hevea Shares, save and except that such Shares will not be entitled to any dividend, right, allotment and/or other forms of distribution where the entitlement date precedes the relevant date of allotment and issuance of such Shares.

Other important dates as the listed issuer may deem appropriate:

The New Hevea Warrants to be issued under the Restricted Issue will be based on the Record of Depositors (2004/2009 Warrants) as at 31 December 2009, being the Expiry Date.
