In addition, all documents filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Sections

(other than portions of such documents deemed not to be filed) after the date of this Registration

from the date of the filing of such documents.
Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Article 155 of the Company’s Articles of Association provides that, subject to the Singapore
Companies Act and every other Act for the time being in force concerning companies and affecting
the Company, every director or other officer shall be entitled to be indemnified by the Company
against all costs, charges, losses, expenses and liabilities incurred by him in the execution and
discharge of his duties or in relation thereto, including any liability in defending any
proceedings, civil or criminal, which relate to anything done or omitted or alleged to have been
done or omitted by him as an officer or employee of the Company and in which judgment is given in
his favor; or where the proceedings are otherwise disposed of without a finding or admission of any
material breach of duty on his part; or in which he is acquitted; or in connection with any
application under any statute for relief from liability for any act or omission in which relief is
granted to him by the court.
-3-
In addition, Article 155 of the Company’s Articles of Association provides that no director,
manager or other officer shall be liable for the acts, receipts, neglects or defaults of any other
director or officer, or for joining in any receipt or other act for conformity, or for any loss or
expense happening to the Company, through the insufficiency or deficiency of title to any property
acquired by order of the directors for the Company or for the insufficiency or deficiency of any
security upon which any of the moneys of the Company are invested or for any loss or damage arising
from the bankruptcy, insolvency or tortious act of any person with whom any moneys, securities or
effects are deposited, or any other loss, damage or misfortune which happens in the execution of
his or her duties, unless the same happens through his or her own negligence, willful default,
breach of duty or breach of trust.
Section 172 of the Singapore Companies Act prohibits a company from indemnifying its directors
or officers against liability, which by law would otherwise attach to them for any negligence,
default, breach of duty or breach of trust of which they may be guilty relating to the company.
However, a company is not prohibited from (a) purchasing and maintaining for any such officer
insurance against any such liability, or (b) indemnifying such officer against any liability
incurred by him in defending any proceedings, whether civil or criminal, in which judgment is given
in his favor or in which he is acquitted, or in connection with any application under
Section 76A(13) or 391 or any other provision of the Singapore Companies Act in which relief is
granted to him by the court.
Our directors and officers are covered by indemnification agreements with the Company and a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. These indemnification agreements provide the Company’s
officers and directors with indemnification to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. The
Company has also obtained a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance that will insure
directors and officers against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment under
certain circumstances which are permitted under the Singapore Companies Act.
The foregoing summaries are necessarily subject to the complete text of the Articles of
Association of the Company, the Singapore Companies Act and the indemnification agreements referred
to above, and are qualified in their entirety by reference thereto.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not applicable.

Item 9. Undertakings.
The undersigned Company hereby undertakes:
| |
(a) |
(1) |
To file, during any period in which offers or sales of the securities registered
hereby are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement: (i) to
include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “Securities Act”); (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events
arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a
fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement;
notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if
the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered)
and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be
reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b), if,
in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent
change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of
Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and (iii) to include any
material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in
the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration
statement, provided, however, that clauses (i) and (ii) do not apply if the information
required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in
periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Company pursuant to
Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the
registration statement.
|
| |
|
(2) |
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act,
each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that
time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
|
| |
|
(3) |
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the
securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. |
| |
(b) |
|
The undersigned Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Company’s annual report pursuant to
Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in
this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to
the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |
| |
(h) |
|
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act
and is, therefore unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a
director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the successful defense of any
action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of
its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue. |
