that STECON will allow the exercise of all
non-Thai Holders if the total shareholding
structure of all non-Thai Holders is
currently no more than 49% of total
shares outstanding. Non-Thai Holders are not
entitled to compensation and have no right
to initiate claims against STECON as a

warrants because of STECON's restriction on
the proportion of shares which can be held
by non-Thais. The Holder can exercise his/her
right on the next exercise date, with the
exception the final exercise date.

be made by account-payable-only check. The
Holder must receive the mentioned account-
payable-only check within 14 days from
each registration book closing date.

agrees to compensate the Holder pursuant
to 1. is calculated in the following manner:
Compensation per 1 warrants
= B * [ MP - Price ]
Where: B = the number of shares which
cannot be provided and/or
increased in accordance with
the exercise ratio that is
increased per 1 unit.
MP = the weighted average market
price of STECON's shares as
mentioned in the prospectus,
(part 3, No.1.15.1)
Price= the exercise price per share
(equal to Baht 10 per share)
or the adjusted exercise
price in accordance with the
adjustment to the exercise
price and the exercise ratio.

this clause.
2.6 If on the final Exercise Date some
Rights Warrants retained by the Company
in accordance with clause 3 (b) or in
the case of the exercise of Rights
Warrants prior to maturity cannot be
exercised, those Rights Warrants will
expire in the same manner as Rights
Warrants that have not been exercised.
Non-Thai Holders shall not be compensated
and shall have no right to claim
against the Company on account of such
expiry. However, the Company shall
deliver the remaining received payment
of unexercised Warrants to Non-Thai
Holders within 14 days from the day
