(a) The reduction of par value of Series A Preferred Shares will result to Additional Paid-in Capital (APIC) of Thirteen Million Seven Hundred Ninety One Thousand Six Hundred Nine and 60/100 Pesos (PhP 13,791,609.60), which can be applied to offset deficit.
(b) The reclassification and removal of Series B Preferred Shares has no effect since there are no outstanding Series B Preferred shares.
(c) The creation of Series C and its eventual redemption and reclassification will result to removal of 0.06% foreign shareholdings in compliance with Article VII of the Amended Articles of Incorporation on Filipino ownership. As of 30 July 2022, there are approximately Three Hundred Forty Nine Thousand Nine Hundred Ninety Three (340,664) common shares owned by foreign stockholders. These shares will be the subject of conversion to Series C Preferred shares which will be redeemed eventually by the Corporation at par and through cash payment. As discussed above, this is the most efficient means for the Corporation to ensure that all of its outstanding shares shall be owned by Filipino citizens. Once redeemed, the Series C Preferred shares shall be considered retired, but will remain in the books of the Corporation. The primary purpose of the redemption of Series C Preferred shares is to ensure compliance with full Filipino ownership for media companies. Other than ensuring that all foreign owned shares are acquired by the Corporation, there are no other effects on the business and operations of the Corporation. This mode of acquiring foreign owned common shares through conversion to a preferred shares to be redeemed thereafter, has been discussed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and we are in the final process of securing a formal confirmation.
(d) The increase in capital stock from 5B to 7B will allow additional issuance of shares for future subscription. The increase in authorized capital stock is in line with the proposed transaction of the Corporation to issue shares (totaling One Billion Six Hundred Seventy Nine Million Nine Hundred Sixty Six Thousand Four Hundred (1,679,966,400) Common Shares] to Atty. Hermogene H. Real and Ms. Michelle F. Ayangco in exchange for Three Hundred Forty Nine Thousand Nine Hundred Ninety Three (349,993) shares of stock of shares in Golden Peregrine Holdings Inc. (GPHI). On the other hand, GPHI directly owns all of the outstanding shares of Philippine Collectively Media Corporation (PCMC), which has a congressional franchise to operate certain broadcast frequencies. This is relation to the proposed agreement between the Corporation and Golden Peregrine Shareholders to infuse GPHI to the Corporation in exchange for shares of the Corporation as detailed in disclosure number C06719-2022 dated 2 September 2022, disclosure number C06582-2002 and disclosure number C06584-2022 both dated 26 August 2022, disclosure number C05221-2021 dated 02 August 2021, disclosure number C05411-2021 dated 06 August 2021, disclosure number C05154-2021 dated 29 July 2021, and disclosure number C05137-2021 dated 29 July 2021. |
