KUALA LUMPUR--Kulim (Malaysia) Bhd. (2003.KU) said Wednesday it
has agreed to sell its shares in New Britain Palm Oil Ltd.
(NBPO.LN) to Sime Darby Bhd. (4197.KU) in a 525.4 million pound
($821.7 million) deal.
The GBP7.15 per share offer from Sime Darby has also been
approved by minority shareholders, Kulim said in a statement to the
stock exchange. Kulim owns a 49% stake in Papua New Guinea-based
alternative-fuel producer New Britain Palm Oil.
In October, Sime Darby launched a GBP1.07 billion pound takeover
offer for New Britain Palm Oil in a deal that would strengthen the
Malaysian conglomerate's position as a palm-oil supplier in
Europe.
