As privately held companies are not readily marketable and can be converted into cash if the owner sell it compared with publicly held companies. The lack of marketability discount has been considered in determining the fair value of the Target Group. References have been made to various research studies conducted on the discount for lack of marketability in developed overseas markets it is determined that the discount for lack of marketability was 20.6%.

Futhermore, as the fair value of the Target Group determined from market approach reflects value from a minority shareholder's viewpoint, a control premium is required to consider in determining the fair value of the equity interest in the Target Group. After considering various research studies conducted on the control premium in developed overseas markets, a control premium of 24.8% has been adopted.

there will be no major changes in the current taxation law in the areas in which the Target Group carry on its business, that the rate of tax payable remains unchanged and that all applicable laws and regulations will be complied with; (iii) the inflation, interest rates and currency exchange rate will not differ materially from those presently prevailing; (iv) the Target Group will retain their management and technical personnel to maintain their ongoing operations; (v) there will be no major business disruptions through international crisis, industrial disputes, industrial accidents or severe weather conditions that will affect the existing business; (vi) the Target Group will remain free from claims and litigation against the business or its customers that will have a material impact on value; (vii) the Target Group is unaffected by any statutory notice and the operation of the business gives, or will give, no rise to a contravention of any statutory requirements; (viii) the business is not subject to any unusual or onerous restrictions or encumbrances; and (xi) the potential bad debt of the Target Group will not materially affect their business operations.
