If the Dissenting Holders wish to exercise their rights in accordance with subsection 223(1) of the CMSA, they can serve a notice on the Offeror to require the Offeror to acquire their Shares, whereby such acquisition shall be done on the same terms of the Offer (including at the same offer price of RM1.55 for each Offer Share) as set out in the Offer Document.
