KUALA LUMPUR (May 24): The High Court has fixed Monday to hear Seacera Group Bhd’s application for a declaration that a notice of extraordinary general meeting filed by a group of shareholders is null and void.

The PN17 company said this in a filing with Bursa Malaysia today with regards to the notice of EGM dated April 30.

The EGM, scheduled to be held on May 29, was requisitioned by substantial shareholder Datuk William Tan Wei Lian and six other shareholders — Datin Sek Chian Nee, Jeannie Ooi Chin Nee, Datuk Chan Chee Hong, Low Swee Foong, Liu Zhen and Ong Eng Taik.

In a separate filing, Seacera said the court has fixed May 28 to decide whether or not the company has to disclose its record of depositors to the seven shareholders.

The seven want the record in text format to be produced at or before 10am on May 28 “for purposes of the proposed EGM”.

The seven, representing a combined stake of at least 10% in the tile manufacturing company, called for the EGM to remove eight directors from the company and appoint new ones.

Rasila Hamzah, Norhanum Nordin, Halim Ismail, Mohd Fazillah Kamaruddin, Datuk Mansor Masikon, Datuk Seri Azizan Ahmad, Zulkarnin Ariffin and Datuk Seri Abdul Mohd Zabidi are the directors that they are targeting to exit the group,

In their place, they are proposing Tan Lee Chin, Razvi Abdul Halim, Datin Ida Suzaini, Clarence Yeow Kong Chew, Chua Eng Chin, Marzuki Hussain, Tengku Ahmad Badli Shah Raja Hussin and Ong Eng Taik.

Seacera’s share price closed 2.44% or half a sen higher at 21 sen — with 8.69 million shares traded — giving it a market capitalisation of RM99.61 million.
