A. Background of the Transaction The proceeds from the additional subscription by AMB. ALC. Holdings and Management Corporation to 3,065,000 shares of Citystate Savings Bank, Inc. (CSBI) will be utilized as additional capital to comply with the new capitalization requirements mandated by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), pursuant to Section 121 of the Manual of Regulations for Banks (MORB). Section 121 of the MORB references Monetary Board Resolution No. 1607 dated 9 October 2014, which amended Subsection X111.1 of the MORB by prescribing a minimum capitalization of One Billion Pesos (Php 1,000,000,000.00) for Thrift Banks with Head Offices located in the National Capital Region and operating 11 to 50 branches.
As this additional subscription is made in compliance with the aforementioned BSP regulations, the transaction has been appropriately recorded in CSBI’s financial statements and books of account as a capital infusion.

B. Reason for the removal of Mr. Bote from the public ownership report. Mr. Bote was a director of the Company, whose term as director ended after the 2022 Annual Stockholders’ Meeting. Since then, he has not held any directorship or management position with the Company since then. Given the above, and in accordance with SRC Rule 3.1(b), the Company determined that Mr. Bote no longer qualifies as an affiliate. His shares have therefore been reclassified under the public float. This classification is made in good faith and the Company remains open to further clarification with the Exchange. |
