Burgundy Bhd., whose business is selling furnitures, has borrowed RM500,000 from one of its

shareholder, Crimson Bhd. Sapphire Bhd., whose board of director was controlled by Burgundy, has

passed a resolution to cause Sapphire to pay off Burgundy's debt to Crimson and in return, 1 million

of Crimson's shares in Burgundy to be transferred to Violet and Magenta, Sapphire's long serving

employees, as fully paid up shares.

On the other hand, Emerald has a very limited funds but is keen on purchasing Burgundy's shares.

Thus, Emerald obtained a loan from Tuscany Bank for the purpose of purchasing 20,000 shares in

Burgundy and 50,000 shares from Hibiscus Bhd., whose 64% of shares were held by Sapphire. Upon

knowing this, Sapphire quickly provided guarantee for Emerald's loan since the Chairman of the

Board in Sapphire is Maya, one of Emerald's friends.
