The American bank will exercise a part of its call options to buy six billion Hong Kong-listed CCB shares, increasing its stake to 10.75 per cent. BoA will pay HKD2.42 per share to the state-run investment company Huijin, which will still hold more than 65 per cent of China Construction Bank after the deal.

The transaction will be completed in early June. The parties have agreed that these newly bought shares cannot be sold before 29 August 2011 without CCB's prior agreement.
