Thanks for this Boon.

Interesting.
I wonder why they said they will also vote accordingly.

hi TTTI,
That statement means that the manager and its associates are not able to vote for anything that has a material interest to them, except ("save for") removing the manager.

So this means the manager can vote for a resolution that wants to remove them. But they can't vote for a resolution that wants to increase their fees or to wind up the trust since they earn fees from it (have a "material interest")

Hi TTTI,

Weijian's interpretation is correct.

It is also mentioned in the "red" statement above.

Hmmm just a thought.
Since, as weijian and Boon illustrated, the manager gets to vote in a resolution to remove them,
Shouldn't unit holders call for an EGM with OTHER resolutions that the manager CANNOT vote in?

Like reducing the fees, or changing the fee structure of the manager (pegging it to DPU, share price component etc for example?)

That greatly increases your odds of winning. Plus it makes more sense isn't it?
Why try to go for the jugular when the odds of succeeding are low?
Instead, make them bleed hard first...

Boon, I think I saw something that you are trying to highlight to me. Thanks. I change the resolution.

OVERVIEW

We propose to remove the external manager of Sabana REIT. We want to replace the present manager with an “Internalised Manager” wholly owned by Sabana REIT. The present external management model has delivered decreasing DPU over the last 3 years. This Internalisation will IMMEDIATELY INCREASE OUR DPU via cost savings and additional distributions from the Internalised Manager's net profit.

RESOLUTION 1 : We want to remove the current manager

RESOLUTION 2 : We want to set up our own in-house team to manage the REIT.
We want to look for qualified people to head our in-house team.

RESOLUTION 3 : If our in-house team is not approved by MAS, we want to wind up the REIT.

RESOLUTION 4 : We want to wind up the REIT if resolution 1 is not passed.
