Temasek Holdings confirms that it has entered into an agreement, via its wholly-owned investment holding subsidiary Lentor Investments, with China Eastern Airlines, China Eastern Air Holding Company and Singapore Airlines Limited for its proposed investment in the Chinese carrier.

Subject to detailed definitive agreements, final regulatory and CEA's shareholder approval, Lentor is expected to subscribe for 649,426,737 new H shares at HK$3.80 per share for a total of approximately HK$2.5 billion representing approximately 8.3 percent of the enlarged capital of CEA.
