Solution:

IBM provided a workaround for this issue:

1) Open Export EAR using any compression software (Ex. 7-Zip)
2) Navigate to "META-INF" folder. (Ex. MA_RSDChangeTicketApp.ear\META-INF\)
3) Open "MANIFEST.MF"
4) Add following line in "MANIFEST.MF"
GeneratedVersion: 7.0.0.0
5) Save "MANIFEST.MF"

this workaround works.

IBM are working on the ifix to solve this issue. will let you know when I get it.
