# Others Pursuant to a share lending agreement dated 8 June 2006 between TRL Investments Ltd and UBS AG, the latter had borrowed 57,017,000 of shares ("Shares") in the share capital of Banyan Tree Holdings Limited ("BTHL"). The change in UBS AG's interest in the Shares arose from redelivery on 14 July 2006 of the borrowed Shares by transferring 29,240,000 Shares acquired by UBS AG pursuant to price stabilising action and 27,777,000 Shares acquired by UBS AG through the partial exercise of the over-allotment options granted by the vendors and BTHL pursuant to the initial public offering. Accordingly, UBS AG ceased to hold any interest in the Shares which it acquired pursuant to price stabilising action and in the Shares comprised in the over-allotment options.In addition, with the exercise of the over-allotment options, BTHL issued an additional 11,246,521 Shares and this resulted in dilution of UBS AG's percentage shareholdings in the issued share capital of BTHL. |
