The Company would like to inform that on 10 March 2021 the planners made a request to the Central Bankruptcy Court for an extension of the limit for submission of the rehabilitation plan in accordance with Section 90/43 Subsection 2 of the Bankruptcy Act B.E 2483 (as amended) with an extension of the time limit for submission by one month from the previous deadline due to the rehabilitation plan containing several important aspects which required the all-aspect analysis, consideration and formulation of the debt structure, capital structure, and organizational structure. This is in addition to legal issues and contractual obligations with employees, business partners, and debtors; as well as in conjunction with financial estimates, capacity for debt repayment and future business plans. The production of the rehabilitation plan is therefore highly important, requires consideration, detailed analysis to result in a just outcome for all creditors, and discussion with creditors and all interested parties in the draft rehabilitation plan in accordance with various principles to esure the rehabilitation plan will receive the approval of the creditors'meeting. The Central Bankruptcy Court has considered and issued an order approving the extension of the submission period of the rehabilitation plan to 15 April 2021.

Following from this, the official receiver will hold a creditor's meeting to consider the rehabilitation plan, the Central Bankruptcy Court will issue an order approving the plan and appointing plan administrators, and the Company will proceed with the rehabilitation plan and inform of the progress in the rehabilitation including any other further progress.
