(b) The Company has, through its subsidiaries, on 28 August 2024 entered into the following management agreements with Shenton 101 to address and mitigate the potential conflict of interest situation arising from the role of LYS in the redevelopment of Shenton House through Shenton 101, which may potentially interfere with or be in conflict with the interest of the Company as the IOIPG Group is also involved in the similar business of property development and property investment in Singapore:-
(i) Project Management Agreement entered into between Shenton 101 and Multi Wealth (Singapore) Pte Ltd, an indirect 99.9% owned subsidiary of the Company (“Multi Wealth”), for the appointment of Multi Wealth as the sole and exclusive project manager with respect to the redevelopment of all those 204 strata units and common property under the Management Corporation Strata Title Plan No. 637 in the development known as “Shenton House” located in the Republic of Singapore and bearing the title details of Lot No. TS30-79K, comprised in the Certificate of Title Volume 59 Folio 133 (collectively, the “Property”) (“Project”) and to manage and carry out the implementation of the Project; and
