Added on September 24, 2009, 3:30 pm#1 PN 17 CriteriaFor convenience sake, since most companies are listed under the main market will be using PN 17 (Note: GN 3 companies have the same criteria) as benchmark and all its related provisions.
In Brief Criteria for a Company to fall within the purview of PN 17 (clause 2.1 a-h):
a. s/h's equity of the listed issuer on a consolidated basis is less than 25% or less of the issued and paid up capital (excl treasury shares) of the listed issuer and such s/h's equity is less than 40m
b. appointment of receiver/manager
c. winding up
d. auditors (qualification of audited report)
e. the auditors have expressed modified opinion with emphasis on the listed issuer's going concern in the listed issuer's latest audited financial s/m and the s/h equity of the listed issuer on a consolidated basis is 50% or less of the issued or paid up capital (excl treasury s/h) of the listed issuer
f. default payment (PN 1) +unable to provide SOVENCY Declaration to the Exchange
g. listed issuer has suspended/ceased its business
h. listed issuer has an insignificant biz/operation
Added on September 24, 2009, 3:54 pm#2 In the Beginning.The most common type (correct me i am wrong) of PN 17 would be default in payment [2.1(f)], if there are some exception circumstances i will list accordingly.

Brief Summary:

PN 1 issued ---> Solvency Declaration ---> Yes ---> NO PN 17
Illustration 2
PN 1 issued ---> Solvency Declaration ---> NO ---> PN 17 ---> Regularisation Plan
Note:
Skipped Chap 9 on disclosure (listing req).
Added on September 24, 2009, 4:12 pm3# PN 1?What is PN 1?
Introduction:
1. The listed issuer (in this case the Company- includes holding, subsidiaries/associated companies) is required to announce (Chap 9 Disclosure) any material defaults regardless whether its interest or the principal.
2. PN 1 is designed to capture everything under the Sun (layman word) especially pertaining to default.
Content:
The most interesting aspect of PN 1 is probably the
"Solvency Declaration", failing to provide a Solvency Dec would qualify a companies entrance into the prestigious PN 17 club (as the case may be).
What is a Solvent Declaration?
1. A statement by the listed issuer claiming it is solvent.
How to qualify as Solvent - Solvent Dec?
1. the majority of the directors have formed an opinion that the listed issuer is able to pay all debt as and when they fall due within the period of 12 mths from the date of announcement.
2. provide the Exchange within 3 Market Days a Solvent Dec from the announcement date (the assumption is the announcement date is whenever the default occurs, the Company will have to declare under Chap 9- disclosure)
Ok so i have given a solvent Declaration, what next?
1. provide the Exchange on a monthly basis the current status of the Default until remedied.
2. if the solvency dec becomes inaccurate (
)

Chap 9 Disclosure ---> PN 1 ---> Solvency Dec --->PN 17 [para 2.0/2.1(f)] ---> Regularisation Plan
Contents:What is a Regularisation Plan?
1. A PN 17 Company together with its Principal Adviser (undefined - lazy to find sos), will formulate a magic bullet that can cure all diseases/illness of the company.
What does a PN 17 Company need to do under a Regularisation Plan?
Scenario 1
Options:A
12mths from the date of being announced as PN 17 submit regularisatrion Plan to SC - if plan result in significant change in biz direction and policy.
Option: B
12mths from the date of being announced as PN 17 submit reg plan to Exchange - if plan does not rsult in significant change in biz direction & policy
Scenario 2
If Option B is selected, get approval from the Exchange.
If rejected, 1 month to appeal.
Scenario 3
Fails to comply with option A & B - suspend or delisting
Scenario 4
Getting out of PN 17
- implement Reg Plan
- demonstrate to the Exchange why the company should revoke its membership of PN 17
Added on September 24, 2009, 4:44 pm#5. "First Announcement" - PN 17Introduction:
1. 3 days after the expiry of the Solvent Dec submission Deadline and the announcement of the company joining the list of PN 17 companies...
2. The company upon meeting the "Prescribed Criteria" - Para 8.03, initiates the First Announcement.
What is a First Annoucement?
1. Satisfying the Prescribed Criteria - Para 8.03 - similar to what is stated above for Reg Plan Secnario 1 -4
2. tell the Exchange within 3 mths whether the company's Reg Plan will have significant change in biz or policy of the company.
Added on September 24, 2009, 4:44 pm#6. "Monthly Announcement" - PN 17Introduction:
1. Company to provide reg plan status on a month basis until completion of the timeframe.
I.e. say company A target Reg Plan is 1 yr to get out of PN 17, so basically Company A has to submit status of reg plan until completion (its noteworthy as well some companies may not achieve their Reg Plan target as well).
Added on September 24, 2009, 5:15 pm#7. "Requisite Announcement" - PN 17Introduction:First Announcement ---> Monthly Announcement ---> Requisite Announcement
Content:What is a Requisite Announcement?
1. it list out the details of the Reg Plan, timeline and principal adviser.
Anything else?
Before Requisite Announcement is made, the Company has to settle/resolve/compromise, enter into all necessary agreement/arrangements with its creditors/ 3rd parties. Once this groundworks have been finalised, a requisite announcement is made.
