The Board of Directors of PRG wishes to provide the following additional information: -

1. Pursuant to the Order granted for the appointment of the IJM dated 26.08.2026 ("the Order"), the IJM shall have and may exercise all the functions and powers of a judicial manager conferred by section 414 of Companies Act 2016 ("CA 2016") and specified in the Ninth Schedule of CA 2016, pending the disposal of the application for the judicial management order filed on 03.08.2026 ("the JM Application").
2. The Order pronounced by the High Court, based on the extracted Court minutes dated 26.08.2026, also contained specific protective directions as follows -

(c) The Company is directed to take the appropriate steps to complete the disclosure in respect of the Petition 742 and the governance matters, including the Bursa announcement and ratification by the Board of Directors, before this Order is perfected.
