Attn:President, the Stock Exchange of Thailand
Whereas the Board of Directors of Sino-Thai Engineering & Construction Public Company Limited
(the "Company") convened the Extraordinary Meeting of Shareholders No. 1/2004 on 16 August 2004,
the Company, therefore, would like to report on the Minutes of the Extraordinary Meeting of Shareholders
No. 1/2004 as follows.
1. The Meeting approved the issuance of 170,000,000 units of warrants to purchase ordinary shares.
Preliminary details of the warrants are as follows.
Issuing company:
Sino-Thai Engineering & Construction Public Company Limited ("STECON")
Category of Warrants:
Warrants to purchase ordinary shares of Sino-Thai Engineering & Construction Plc No. 2 ("Warrants")
Type of Warrants:
Transferable and specified the name of the holders.

3 years from the issuing date
Number of Warrants to be issued and offered for sale:
170,000,000 Units
Allocation and offering method:
Warrants will be allocated and offered to the Company's existing shareholders whose names appear on
the share register book as at the date of close of share register book after receiving approval from the Office
of Securities and Exchange Commission. The offering ratio will be one warrant to every six ordinary shares
held (any excess will be deleted.)
In case of any warrants left from the subscription following the offering described above, the Board of Directors,
the Executive Board of Directors or any person entrusted by the Board of Directors or
the Executive Board of Directors may allocate and offer the remaining warrants to the existing shareholders
who subscribe the warrants more than their entitlement.
Offering Price/Warrant:
Baht 3.00 (Three Baht) per unit
Exercise Ratio:
One unit of warrant is entitled to one ordinary share unless the rights is adjusted according to the warrants
Exercise Price:
Baht 8.50 per share unless the rights is adjusted according to the warrants
Number of shares reserved for the exercise of warrants:
170,000,000 shares, accounting for 16.8 per cent of the total shares sold prior to this offering.
Exercise Period:
The first exercise date is the last business day of the end of the financial statement's first quarter starting from
the day the warrant is issued, and other exercise dates are the last business day of every quarter of the
financial statement according to the Company's fiscal year, whereby the last exercise date is the last business
day the warrant is due for its three-year maturity period.
Offering Period:
The Board of Directors, the Executive Board of Directors or any person entrusted by the Board of Directors or
the Executive Board of Directors will determine details and conditions after the Office of Securities and
Exchange Commission approves to offer of warrants for sale.
Secondary Market:
The Company will list the warrants in the Stock Exchange of Thailand.
Reason to issue new shares to accommodate any change of rights exercise:
The Company shall change the exercise of right both the exercise price and the exercise ratio in accordance
with the calculating method to be further determined when any event stipulated in the relevant Notification of
the Securities and Exchange Commission occurs.
This includes, for example, when the par value of the Company's share is changed as a result of share
combination or division, or when the Company pays all or part of the dividends as newly-issued shares to
the shareholders, or any other cases which may result in the warrant holders entitling to less benefit than
they deserve when exercising their rights.
Effect to Shareholders:
Dilution Effect to the net market value ratio (Price Dilution)
In case all warrants at the offering price of Bath 3 per unit are exercised to buy 170,000,000 shares
at Baht 8.50 per share at the market price (closing price) as of 9 July 2004 at Baht 11.70 per share and
the Company has the total of 1,190,250,000 shares registered, the price dilution will cause the market price
of the share to decline by 0.58 per cent of its original price.
Dilution effect to the shareholding ratio (Control Dilution)
The offering of 170,000,000 warrants to existing shareholders at Baht 3 per unit with the exercise price
at Baht 8.50 per share will result in a dilution effect to the shareholding ratio where voting rights of
the existing shareholders will be effected at the rate of 14.30 per cent of the total shares sold after
the issuing of 170,000,000 capital-increase ordinary shares and after the exercise of rights under
the warrants by non-existing shareholders.
In addition, the Meeting proposed and approved the allocation of warrants to purchase ordinary shares left
from the offering to existing shareholders to be offered for sale to specific investors, institutional investors or
sophisticated investors (private placement) with price and conditions same as those offered to existing
shareholders and the Meeting approved the authorization of power to the Executive Board of Directors or
any person entrusted by the Board of Directors or the Executive Board of Directors to have the power to
determine and/or change the details of terms and conditions, events where the issuance of new ordinary
shares is required for the adjustment of exercise of warrants, details process or conditions in relation to
the offering of warrants for sale for examples, the offering period, the offering process and other details and
conditions, including the case where existing shareholders of the Company may be entitled to subscribe
warrants to purchase ordinary shares exceeding their entitlement, allocation and offering of warrants exceeding
shareholders' entitlement, fixing the date to close share register book in order to determine shareholders' right
to subscribe warrants, as well as to undertake any other acts and things necessary for the offering of warrants for sale
including to list the warrants in the Stock Exchange of Thailand.
