SINGAPORE Post on Monday said that an arbitration filed over a dispute in a share-purchase agreement has been issued a partial award, with various claims against the group dismissed. Read more at The Business Times.

The Arbitral Tribunal on June 3, 2020, issued its partial award in the arbitration, and has dismissed Mr Tan’s various claims against SingPost for damages for breach of the shareholders’ agreement, conspiracy, and inducement of breach of contract, said the group.

The Tribunal also ruled in SingPost's favour on material accounting and computational issues under the share-purchase agreement. These are the most significant determinants of what sums - if any - are due to be paid either by SingPost to Mr Tan, or vice-versa, for the transfer of Mr Tan's remaining shares in FHPL to SingPost.

Based on its findings, the Tribunal has directed both parties to see whether they can agree on the final amount payable for the transfer of Mr Tan's remaining shares in FHPL to SingPost, failing which the Tribunal will make a final determination.SingPost said it is in talks with its external counsel and accounting experts to compute the sums it understands as being due from Mr Tan to SingPost.

The group added that it will engage with Mr Tan’s counsel and the Tribunal to finalise these sums, following which SingPost can then quantify the potential financial impact of this arbitration. SingPost will make further annoucements following any further partial or final determination by the Tribunal.For daily updates on weekdays and specially selected content for the weekend.
