From FY14, the Company has implemented a contractual “Clawback” provision in the event that the executive Director or Key
Management Personnel of the Company engages in fraud or misconduct, which results in re-instatement of the Company’s financial
results or a fraud/misconduct resulting in financial loss to the Company. The Board may pursue to reclaim the unvested components of
remuneration from the executive Director or key management personnel from all incentive plans for the relevant period, to the extent
such incentive has been earned but not yet released or disbursed. The Board, taking into account the RC’s recommendation, can decide
whether and to what extent, such recoupment of the incentive is appropriate, based on the specific facts and circumstances of the case.

ACCOUNTABILITY AND AUDIT
Principle 10: Accountability
We have always believed that we should conduct ourselves in ways that deliver maximum sustainable value to our shareholders. We
promote best practices as a means to build an excellent business for our shareholders. Our Board has overall accountability to our
shareholders for our performance and in ensuring that we are well managed. Management provides our Board members with monthly
business and financial reports, comparing actual performance with budget and highlighting key business indicators and major issues
that are relevant to our performance, position and prospects.
Principle 11: Risk Management and Internal Controls
The Company and its subsidiaries (the “
Group
”) has in place an Enterprise Risk Management (“
ERM
”) Framework, which governs the
process of identification, prioritisation, assessment, management and monitoring of key financial, operational, compliance and IT risks
to the Group. The key risks of the Group are deliberated by Management and reported to the AC. Integral to the ERM is a Group-wide
system of internal controls.
