PART II CHAIRMANS LETTER
To: All Shareholders of City Trust Limited (CTL)
Dear Shareholder,
PROPOSED ACQUISTION OF SHARES IN I&M BANK LIMITED NOT ALREADY HELD
BY CITY TRUST LIMITED BY WAY OF SHARE EXCHANGE
1. INTRODUCTION
On 3rd October 2011, your Board issued a cautionary announcement regarding on-going
negotiations with a regional Bank for the acquisition of its shares in exchange for shares in
your Company.
It now gives me great pleasure to inform you that your Board has since concluded these
negotiations and, in principle, pending shareholder approvals, agreed on the terms with the
regional bank being I&M Bank Limited. You are aware that your Company already holds
7.28% of the shares in I&M. It is proposed that your Company will acquire all of the
remaining 92.72% shares in I&M. The payment consideration for the acquisition of these
remaining shares in I&M will be through the issuance of 363,722,034 New Shares credited
fully paid up to the shareholders of I&M. The effect of this acquisition will be that I&M will
become a wholly owned subsidiary of CTL.
This document provides pertinent information on the effect and impact on your Companys
financial position and the various approvals required to consummate this transaction. The
purpose of this document is to provide you with (i) information on the background and
rationale for undertaking this transaction, (ii) outline the key terms of the proposed
transaction, and most importantly (iii) to seek your approval to proceed with the proposed
offer.
2. ACQUISITION OF SHARES IN I&M BANK LIMITED
Under the offer, CTL will seek to acquire the remaining 26,704,995 shares comprising
92.72% of the issued and paid up shares in I&M.
By way of background information, I&M possesses a rich heritage in banking. Founded in
1974, the Bank has evolved from a community financial institution to a full-fledged
commercial bank offering a wide range of corporate and retail banking services, making it a
significant player in the Kenyan market. Known for its innovative and wide range of products
and services, it is backed by state-of-the-art technologies, staff strength of close to 500 and
a branch network of 20 in Kenya. I&M has in the recent past established its presence in
the region with 15 branches spread across Mauritius through its associate Bank One
Limited; 6 branches in Tanzania through its subsidiary I&M Bank (T) Limited and 15
branches in Rwanda through its subsidiary Banque Commerciale du Rwanda Limited
(BCR).

Two leading European Development Financial Institutions (DFIs) Proparco (French) and DEG
(German) own approximately 10.68% of the Bank while the rest is owned by a consortium
of Kenyan investment companies and individuals. Total assets of the I&M Bank Group
exceed KES 144 billion as at 30thSeptember 2012. More details about I&M are set out under
Part III of this circular.
3. RATIONALE FOR UNDERTAKING THIS ACQUISITION
This transaction represents a win-win situation for both CTL and I&M shareholders as
explained below:
As at the date of this Circular, CTLs investment in I&M Bank represented 7.28% of
the Banks shareholding. Based on the Banks current valuation and CTLs current
market price, CTLs shares are trading at a discount; this being attributed to the
indirect holding of the Banks shares.
From CTL s Pe r spec t i ve
In deciding to proceed with the acquisition, the Board took into consideration several
factors, the most important of which include the following:
However on conclusion of the transaction, I&M Bank will become a wholly owned
subsidiary of CTL, enabling the current shareholders of CTL and potential investors
to directly hold shares in I&M. This will not only enable shareholders of CTL to
directly benefit from the Banks financial performance, but also provide an
opportunity to participate in I&Ms substantial asset base and businesses in the
region. We believe that, this would over a period of time, steer the price of CTL
shares to better reflect the direct shareholding in I&M Bank.
Further, the share swap mechanism has been structured in a manner that is most
beneficial to shareholders of CTL. The structure is such that on completion of the
transaction, CTLs shareholding will, in all material respects, resemble the current
shareholding structure of I&M Bank. Taking into consideration the value of CTLs
other investments, the current shareholders of CTL will collectively hold 7.30% on
conclusion of this transaction, reflecting a marginal increase from their current
shareholding of 7.28%. The Board appreciated that, in contrast, had the share swap
mechanism been structured on market values of the two entities namely I&M Bank
and CTL, the shareholders of CTL would have been significantly diluted in the
process.
Facilitate the increase of the shareholder base of CTL and thereby enhance liquidity
of the Companys shares on the NSE.
Enable CTL to upgrade its listing status on the NSE from the AIMS to the MIMS
following the enhanced shareholder base.

Enable I&M achieve its long term objective of listing its shares on the Nairobi
Securities Exchange whilst simultaneously providing liquidity for its institutional,
corporate and individual shareholders.
F rom I M s Pe r s pe c ti v e
Similarly for I&M and its shareholders, this transaction provides several advantages which
are listed below:
Provide I&M with a platform to raise additional capital in the future to facilitate the
achievement of its long term growth and expansion strategy, and thereby, improve
upon its capabilities to successfully manage the growth achieved in the last few
years.
4. EFFECT OF THE TRANSACTION ON THE EXISTING SHAREHOLDERS AND THE
COMPANYS FINANCIAL POSITION
The Board acknowledges that this transaction will result in a dilution of your shareholding in
CTL. However, the Board has ensured that transaction be structured in such a way to
ensure that there shall be no dilution of your current indirect shareholding in I&M Bank.
Further, all due care has been exercised to safeguard that the ultimate beneficial
shareholding of the Bank remains materially unchanged. This is illustrated in Part IV, under
shareholding on page 31.
This acquisition will have a significant positive impact on the financial position of your
Company and this has been outlined in further detail under Part IV on pages 32 and 33. For
instance, following the proposed share split and the issuance of the new Ordinary Shares to
I&M Bank Shareholders, CTLs issued share capital will increase from KES 28,640,005 to KES
392,362,039.

5. PRINCIPAL TERMS OF THE ACQUISITION
i. Offer: Once approved at the EGM, CTL will make an offer to the shareholders of
I&M under section 210 of the Companies Act to acquire all the shares not presently
held by CTL in exchange for shares in CTL. No cash payment will be made and a
cash alternative will not be provided.
ii. Share Exchange Ratio:The share exchange ratio as agreed and approved by your
Board is 13.62 shares in CTL with the proposed par value of Kshs. 1.00 (post share
split) for every 1 share in I&M with a par value of Kshs. 100/-. The share-exchange
ratio has been determined keeping in mind that the most equitable basis of valuation
would be based on I&M. In this regard, as CTLs most significant asset is its
shareholding in I&M, CTLs valuation has been based on the fair value of I&M. This
derived value is the basis of the share exchange ratio. The following factors have
also been taken into consideration in determining the share exchange ratio:
CTLs and I&Ms most recent audited financial statements available at that time;
A valuation of I&M Bank carried out by Deloitte for the private placement inNovember 2010.
An updated valuation of I&M Bank carried out by Dyer and Blair Investment Bankin October 2012.
CTLs value per share based on a proportionate share of I&Ms computed value asabove.
Ensuring that in carrying out the transaction and as a result thereof, the ultimateshareholding of I&M Bank remains materially unchanged.
The transaction is such that I&M Bank shareholders will receive 13.62 new ordinary
shares in CTL for every one share they hold in I&M. Consequently, the consideration
to I&M shareholders will be in the form of an allotment of 363,722,034 New Shares of
CTL which will be credited as issued and fully paid up.
The New Shares, when issued, will have the same rights as the existing ordinary
shares of the Company.
iii. Change in Name & Board of Directors
It is intended that, upon completion of the Acquisition, the name of the Company will
be changed to I&M Holdings Limited.
The current membership of CTLs Board is as shown below.

A brief profile for each of these Directors has been provided under Part V on pages
34 and 35 of this Circular.
iv. Amendment to the Memorandum and Articles of Association
Your Board is of the view that the transaction represents an opportune moment to
review the Memorandum and Articles of Association for the Company. This document
was drawn up in 1950 and has not been substantially reviewed since then. From 1950there have been significant changes in the operating and regulatory environment
including the adoption of best practices in areas such as Corporate Governance which
need to be factored into the amended Articles of Association. It is also important to
note that your Company will now become the holding company for the Bank. With
these factors in mind, the Notice of EGM contains resolutions amending the
Memorandum of Association of the Company and adopting new Articles of
Association. Details on the amendments proposed have been provided under Part VI
on page 36 of this Circular.
v.
Transfer of CTL shares from AIMS to MIMS
CTL had applied to the CMA to transfer its shares from the AIMS to MIMS listing, the
Main Board of the Nairobi Securities Exchange. Following the successful completion
of this transaction, CTL will be fully eligible in all aspects to list on the MIMS, save for
the requirement to have 1,000 shareholders. To this end, CTL had requested CMA for
a 6-month period exemption within which the Company will have to increase its
shareholder base from approx. 700 to the required minimum of 1,000 shareholders.
CMA vide its letter dated 6thNovember 2012 conveyed its approval of the exemption.
It is intended to achieve this as below:
8/10/2019 City Trust Ltd Circular to Shareholders
14/64
City Trust Limited Shareholders Circular_________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________ __________
Page | 14
Following the conclusion of this transaction, Biashara Securities Limited (BSL), an
existing shareholder of I&M, will hold approx. 13.92% of CTL. BSL is a holding
company that has approx. 1,000 individual shareholders.
It is intended that BSL shall, subject to receipt of court approval and all other
necessary regulatory approvals, be wound up allowing its approx. 1,000
shareholders to hold shares directly in CTL. Consequently CTLs shareholder base will increase to approx. 1,700 shareholders
thereby being in full compliance with the MIMS requirement. It is anticipated that
this requirement will be met within the 6-months period as required by the CMA.
vi. Transaction Costs: The transaction costs in relation to the acquisition of shares in
I&M, details of which have been provided in Part VIII on page 46 will be funded from
a special dividend to be declared by I&M at completion of the transaction.
6. PROPOSED SHARE SPLIT
Your Board is simultaneously proposing to undertake a share split. The main objective ofthis action would be to increase the number of shares in circulation, which would enhancethe liquidity of the shares on the NSE.
It is proposed that the ordinary shares of the Company be split so that the shareholders willreceive 5 new shares for every share they currently hold in CTL. This will reduce the parvalue per ordinary share from the current KES 5.00 to KES 1.00.
The current share price of CTL shares is KES 400.00, and thus restricts trading activity inview of the fact that minimum transaction size is 100 shares. Following the share split, theprice of each share would also decrease by the same factor of 5 thereby increase the
affordability of the Companys shares. Over time, this action would in all likelihood increasethe shareholder base. Likewise, the increased affordability of the shares would improve theCompanys ability to raise funds through the capital markets.
In addition, the split will result in an increase of the current authorised shares for CTL from10,000,000 ordinary shares with a par value of KES 5.00 to 50,000,000 ordinary shares witha par value of KES 1.00. Similarly, the issued and fully paid shares will increase from5,728,001 ordinary shares to 28,640,005 ordinary shares.
The proposed register closing date for the share split is May 28, 2013 following which theincreased shares will be uploaded for trading on June 11, 2013. The same will serve as the
date of commencement of trading in the shares.
7. STATUTORY APPROVALS & RELATED INFORMATION
In compliance with the terms of CMA approval, the key shareholders have agreed to lock in
their shareholding for a period of 24 months effective from the completion of the proposed
transaction. More details on the terms and conditions of the Offer are set out under the
Statutory and General Section on page 43 of this Circular.
Included in Parts III-IX of this Circular are additional information and disclosures on CTL and
I&M Bank, and the future of the Company including pro forma financial information.

regulators and other authorities as applicable, it is expected that the transaction will be
concluded before June 30, 2013.
For purposes of the EGM, you will find enclosed a form of proxy for your use in relation to
the EGM. A proxy need not be a shareholder of CTL. The completion of a form of proxy will
not prevent you from attending and voting in person if you wish to do so.

9. RECOMMENDATIONS AND VOTING INTENTIONS

the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.
The Directors unanimously recommend that all CTL shareholders vote in favour of the
resolutions to be proposed at the EGM, as they intend to do in respect of their own
beneficial holdings of shares, if any.
If you are in any doubt as to what action to take, it is recommended that you seek
independent advice from your stockbroker, bank manager, lawyer, accountant or other
professional adviser.
Yours sincerely,

PART III I&M BANK LIMITED
I&M Bank Limited (Bank) possesses a rich heritage in banking. The Bank was established
in 1974 as a financial institution that grew to be a full-fledged commercial bank in 1996.
Today, the Bank has a network of 20 branches and 21 ATMs covering the major financial
centers in Kenya and with an access to over 3,000 ATMs across the country as part of othernetworks. I&M Bank has grown to be a significant player in the Kenyan market. The Bank
was recently ranked overall 4th best bank in the industry out of 43 banks, by the 2012
Banking Survey.
The Bank offers a wide range of commercial banking and financial products and services,
and prides itself on introducing innovative products and services based on the needs of its
customers. In 2010, I&M became the first bank in East and Central Africa to be licensed by
VISA for E-Commerce acquisition. This important step has been well perceived in the East
Africa market as plugging the missing link for promoting E-commerce in the country.
I&M Bank is privileged to count, amongst its shareholders, two leading Europeandevelopment financial institutions (DFIs), Proparco and DEG, who together own
approximately 10.68% of I&M Bank. A major portion of the remaining approx. 90%
shareholding in the bank is held by a consortium of Kenyan investment companies. In
November 2010, the Bank successfully raised KShs. 2.4 billion (approx. USD 30 Million)
through a private placement which resulted in an expansion of the Banks shareholding
base. The Bank also successfully set up and issued shares under an Employee Share
Ownership Plan (ESOP) in July 2011.
As at September 30, 2012, I&M Banks issued and paid up share capital was KShs. 2.88
billion, with a share premium of KShs. 3.77 billion. The total Shareholders Equity as at thisdate, stood at KShs. 16.567 billion.
I&M Bank has over the last few years successfully pursued a regional expansion strategy
and established operations in (i) Mauritius through its associate Bank One Limited; (ii)
Tanzania through its subsidiary I&M Bank (T) Limited, and (iii) Rwanda through its
subsidiary Banque Commericale du Rwanda Limited. A summary of each is outlined below.
Bank One Limited, Mauritius
Bank One Limited, formerly known as First City Bank Limited (FCB), is a commercial bank
in Mauritius, licensed to do both on-shore and off-shore banking business, and regulated by
the Bank of Mauritius. FCB was formerly owned by Government of Mauritius institutions,
which divested from the bank by selling their equity in 2008 to I&M Bank and CIEL
Investment Limited, who own 50% each in Bank One.
Bank One represents I&Ms maiden expansion in terms of overseas investments, and
marked the beginning of its strategic expansion outside Kenya. Through Bank One, I&M
offers international off-shore banking, wealth management and trade finance services to a
widespread clientele.
The Mauritian bank has a network of 15 branches, with total assets of Mauritian Rupees
(MUR) 18.072 billion (approx. KShs. 47.71 billion) as at 30th September 2012.

Association of CTL and adopt new Articles of Association as set out in the Notice of EGM in

The following is a summary of the principal proposed changes. This summary is not

Association which will be circulated with the Notice of EGM.

The removal of the provisions which applied to the original acquisition of the brewery
business (old Articles 3 and 4).
A provision that new shares to be issued by way of rights unless otherwise resolved

Act (new Articles 20 to 27 inclusive)
The introduction of customary requirements as to the transfer of shares (new Article

PART VII RISK FACTORS
On conclusion of the acquisition, I&M Bank will be a wholly owned subsidiary of CTL. In
addition to the general risk factors that CTL shareholders have previously been exposed to,
this transaction increases their exposure to the banking sector.
I&M Bank, over the years, has had a keen focus on risk management both in its business
processes and products, which have aided the Banks steady growth. Post-acquisition, CTL
will ensure that this keen focus is carried on both at the holding and bank level.
Risk management principles:
The following risk management framework already established at all levels of the Bank, will
be replicated at the holding company to ensure that risks identified are adequately
considered and mitigated:
The Board of Directors at both the CTL and bank level assume the ultimate
responsibility for the level of risks taken and are responsible to oversee the effective
implementation of the risk strategies;
The organizational risk structure and the functions, tasks and powers of the
committees, employees and departments involved in the risk processes are
continuously reviewed to ensure their effectiveness and the clarity of their roles and
responsibilities;
Risk issues are taken into consideration in all business decisions. Measures are in
place to develop risk-based performance measures and this is being supplemented by
setting risk limits at the company level;
Risk management has been integrated into various management processes such as
strategic planning, annual budgeting and performance measurement;
Identified risks are reported in a transparent and timely manner and in full;
Appropriate and effective controls exist for all processes.
Outlined below are some uncertainties and risks that CTL faces currently as well as a result
of the increased exposure to the banking sector. In addition to these, there may be other
risks and uncertainties not presently known to CTL or that it currently believes not to be
material that may also have an adverse effect on CTLs future performance, which maycause the price of shares to decline.
1 General Risks
(i) Political Risk
Kenya, like many developing countries, is subject to political risks that may arise from
political unrest which could adversely impact the general economy and specifically, the
banking sector. Following the last general elections, Kenya went through a period of civil
unrest that resulted in a slowdown of the economy. Banks in particular saw a decline in
demand for credit and financial services, which led to a decrease in performance. It ishoped that with the implementation of the new constitution and measures in place, that
the Country shall not experience the same unrest.
8/10/2019 City Trust Ltd Circular to Shareholders
39/64
City Trust Limited Shareholders Circular_________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________ __________
Page | 39
(ii)Economic Risk
Inflation has been on an increasing trend since 2008 directly impacting various sectors
of the Countrys economy. Likewise, other economic factors that have adversely affected
the performance of the Kenyan economy include the exchange rate fluctuations of the
Kenya Shilling, erratic interest rates and reduction in bilateral and multi-lateral aid.Efforts are being made on infrastructural improvements and investments in most sectors
of the economy, throughout the country aimed at lowering the cost of doing business in
the Kenya. Additionally, as I&M Bank operates within the wider region, the stability of
other East African economies could impact CTLs overall performance.
2 Risk factors relating to the Business
This section provides details of the Banks exposure to risk and describes the methods used
by management to control risk. The most important types of risk to which the Bank is
exposed are liquidity risk, credit risk, market risk and operational risk. Market risk includes
currency risk and interest rate risk.
(i) Regulatory Risk
Regulatory risk relates to the risk of non-compliance with laws, rules, regulations,
prescribed practice or ethical standards issued from time to time. Regulatory risk may
arise in instances where the laws and rules governing the conduct of business may be
ambiguous or change drastically.
CTLs regulatory risks arise from its compliance to the Companies Act as well as the
Capital Markets Act and other guidelines as may be stipulated by the relevant
authorities. Likewise, on conclusion of this transaction, CTL will to some extent be
regulated by the Central Bank of Kenya. Banking services in Kenya are regulated by the
Banking Act (and its amendments), the Finance Act and the CBK, under which I&M Bank
is regulated. New policy guidelines and regulations issued by the CBK could impact on
the operations of the Bank and hence CTLs performance.
(ii) Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Bank if a customer or counterparty to a
financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from
the Banks loans and advances to customers and other banks and investment securities.For risk management reporting purposes, the Bank considers and consolidates all
elements of credit risk exposure.
The Board of Directors has delegated responsibility of the management of credit risk to
its Board Credit Committee. A separate Bank Credit Risk Management Committee
reporting to the Board Credit Committee is responsible for oversight of the Bank credit
risk.
The risk that the counter-parties to trading instruments might default on their obligation
is monitored on an on-going basis. In monitoring credit risk exposure, consideration is
given to trading instruments with a positive fair value and to the volatility of the fairvalue of trading instruments over their remaining life.
8/10/2019 City Trust Ltd Circular to Shareholders
40/64
City Trust Limited Shareholders Circular_________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________ __________
Page | 40
To manage the level of credit risk, the Bank deals with counter parties of good credit
standing, enters into master netting agreements wherever possible and when
appropriate, obtains collateral.
The Bank also monitors concentrations of credit risk that arise by industry and type of
customer in relation to Bank loans and advances to customers by carrying a balanced
portfolio. The Bank has no significant exposure to any individual customer or counter-party.
To determine impairment of loans and advances, the Bank assesses whether it is
probable that it will be unable to collect all principal and interest according to the
contractual terms of the loans and advances.
(iii)Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk includes the risk of being unable to meet the Banks financial obligations as
they fall due because of inability to liquidate assets at a reasonable price and in an
appropriate timeframe.The Bank continually assesses liquidity risk by identifying and monitoring changes in
funding required to meet business goals and targets set in ter
