Profit Sharing Scheme<br />

As a performance incentive, we have a profit-sharing scheme pursuant to which certain of our Executive<br />

Directors, namely Yaw Chee Siew and Lee Kok Wah, are each entitled under their relevant Service<br />

Agreements and subject to the approval of our Remuneration Committee, to an incentive bonus, which is<br />

calculated based on the PBT (as defined below) as follows:<br />

Where the PBT does not exceed S$20.0 million ...................... Nil<br />

Where the PBT exceeds S$20.0 million but does not exceed<br />

S$30.0 million. ............................................ 0.50% of PBT<br />

Where the PBT exceeds S$30.0 million but does not exceed<br />

S$40.0 million. ............................................ 1.00% of PBT<br />

Where the PBT exceeds S$40.0 million but does not exceed<br />

S$50.0 million. ............................................ 1.25% of PBT<br />

S$60.0 million. ............................................ 1.50% of PBT<br />

Where the PBT exceeds S$60.0 million but does not exceed<br />

S$80.0 million. ............................................ 1.50% of PBT<br />

Where the PBT exceeds S$80.0 million but is less than S$100.0 million .... 1.75% of PBT<br />

exceptional items and extraordinary items.<br />

Save for the Service Agreements, the incentive bonuses that are provided for in the letters of employment<br />

with our Executive Officers and employees, there are no other bonus or profit sharing plans or any other<br />

profit-linked agreements or arrangements between our Company and any of our Executive Directors.<br />

Save as disclosed above, there are no existing or proposed service contracts entered into or to be entered<br />

into by our Company or any of our subsidiaries with any of our Executive Directors which provides for<br />

compensation in the form of stock options, or pension, retirement or other similar benefits, or other benefits,<br />

upon the termination of employment.<br />

Corporate Governance<br />

Our Directors recognise the importance of corporate governance and the high standards of accountability<br />

to our Shareholders and will follow closely the recommendations of the Code of Corporate Governance 2005<br />

issued in July 2005 (the “Code”).<br />

The Code recommends that the roles of executive chairman and chief executive officer be separated, to<br />

ensure an appropriate balance of power and increase accountability to shareholders. Keeping in line with this<br />

practice, Yaw Chee Siew is appointed as our Executive Chairman and Lee Kok Wah is appointed as our Group<br />

Managing Director.<br />
