5. BOARD STRUCTURE

Board balance and composition
1. The Board should consist of qualified individuals with diverse set of skills, knowledge, experiences, cultural background and gender that ensure sufficient diversity and independence in facilitating the deliberation, review and decision making.
2. Whilst the Company’s Constitution allows for not less than two (2) or more than fifteen (15) Directors, the Board shall examine and determine its size periodically in relation to the effective running of the Company’s business.
3. The Board shall be helmed by a Chairman, appointed by the Board, and comprise at least two (2) members or one-third (1/3) of the Board, whichever is higher, who are IDs in accordance with the Listing Requirements.
  
  The Board, through the Nomination Committee, shall take steps to adhere to the recommendation in the MCCG whereby, the composition of the Board should comprise a majority of IDs and at least 30% of the Board members comprised women directors, for the purpose of effective oversight of management and also to meet the gender diversity requirement.
4. The Board undertakes to assess the independence of ID upon his proposed appointment, annually and when any new interest or relationship develops.
5. In the event that even if a person does not fall within any of the disqualifying indicators enumerated out in Paragraph 1.01 of the Listing Requirements, both the Director and the Board must give effect to the spirit, intention and purpose of the definition of an ID. There must be a conscious application of the test of whether the said Director is able to exercise independent judgement and act in the best interests of the Company.
6. The tenure of ID shall not exceed a consecutive or cumulative term of nine (9) years. An ID may continue to serve on the Board beyond the nine (9)-year tenure provided the ID is re-designated as a Non-ID. Subject to assessment of the Nomination Committee and with valid justification, an ID may remain designated as ID beyond the consecutive or cumulative term of 9 years, provided shareholders’ approval is obtained.
  
  If the Board wishes to retain an ID after the twelfth (12th) year, the Board must justify and seek annual shareholders’ approval through a two-tier voting process.

To enhance Board effectiveness, the Nomination Committee is therefore entrusted by the Board to appraise candidates for directorship, to ensure Directors have the relevant skills, experience, expertise and time commitment, including those who retire and offer themselves for re-election, before recommending to the Board.
