N.B.

While the Hong Kong Bank have agreed in the past to take 10% equity which was at that time equivalent to $11 million, as yet they have not been asked to invest the same amount on the reduced total capital. If they were to insist(as have the Hong Kong Government) on a 10% share only, then a further $2.8million would have to be found

elsewhere.
